1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: If Kevin McCarthy is the Speaker of the House and 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 1: we don't have an ability to ensure that there is 3 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 1: an oof behind the agenda and energy behind our oversight, 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: that the committee simons don't mean that much anyway. We 5 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: had a deal that was not a selfish deal in 6 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 1: any way for Kevin McCarthy to get him the gavel 7 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: on the first ballot, and he eagerly dismissed us. I 8 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 1: will always fight to put the American people first, not 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: a few individuals that want something for themselves. Freedom is 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: back in style. Welcome the revolution, y'all sent you and 11 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: sell you a cow Sean Hannity Show, Mary, I'm the 12 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions 13 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: for America. All right, thank you, Scott Shannon, and thanks 14 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: to all of you, toll free. It's eight hundred nine 15 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: four one, Shawn, of you one to be a part 16 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: of the program. You know, Linda, I know I communicate 17 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: for a living, but I think sometimes I fail in 18 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: my efforts to communicate properly so people understand I'm going 19 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: to go through something slowly, so everybody understands where I 20 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: am on this. And and by the way, there's some 21 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: updates to give you. Of course, we're now up to 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: the eighth vote. It's we're still stuck in the mud. 23 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: I think I can tell you behind the scenes there's 24 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: progress being made, but I can't specifically give you a 25 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 1: number of where this is ultimately going to lead. Last night, 26 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: there were four specific concessions that Kevin McCarthy made that 27 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: people have been asking for. One is a little nuts 28 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 1: to me, and that is he'd already given in on 29 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: the issue of the motion to vacate with only a 30 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: five member threshold, which is meaning which means that at 31 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: any given time, five members could force a vote to 32 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: oust the speaker, while he reduced to any one member. 33 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: Now that potentially, if you're dealing with some crazy people 34 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: in a caucus, could be disastrous for anybody, but he 35 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: agreed to it last night. That's what he agreed to. Similarly, 36 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: even though more than half the Freedom Caucus already supports 37 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy, he agreed to put more Freedom Caucus members 38 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: and I'm friends with the Freedom Caucus as all of 39 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: you know, on the House Rules Committee. That's two additional 40 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:28,519 Speaker 1: seats he's pledged to hold the votes that some lawmakers 41 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: felt was important I thought they were part of the 42 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: agenda anyway. But anyway, term limits and Board of Security bills, 43 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: that's all part of his commitments to America, and major 44 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 1: changes to the appropriations process to prevent any omnibus opportunities. 45 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: In other words, he will allow floor amendments to be 46 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: offered by any lawmaker meeting in the caucus. These are 47 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: major concessions. So what have I been saying that people 48 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: aren't hearing Because I think I communicate. I've been pretty 49 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: clear about this. It's not complicated. What I'm saying is 50 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: if you combine the motion to vacate now reduced to 51 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: any one member as a threshold that can force a 52 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: vote to oust Kevin McCarthy instead of five, that in 53 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 1: and of itself is a massive concession. In other words, 54 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: if Kevin doesn't keep his promises, I keep hearing from 55 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: the twenty to twenty one, well we need to know, 56 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: we need assurances that it will keep his promises. Well, 57 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: that would be, you know, an insurance policy to hold 58 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: him accountable or at least to let the American people 59 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 1: know that he's not keeping a promise. But here's here's 60 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: where I kind of met Oswyth and trying to understand, 61 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: and let me be very clear, of the twenty people, 62 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: I don't have any disagreement with any of them. They 63 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: tend to be conservatives, most of whom I like. I 64 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: don't think they're being practical and reasonable on this particular issue. 65 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: And here's why there's a reason why, is that the 66 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: agenda is already set. In other words, I don't think 67 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: there's going to be any disagreement in the entire Republican 68 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: Caucus on the issue of Jim Jordan in the judiciary 69 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: investigating whether the FBI has been politicized and the DOJ 70 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: has been weaponized, I don't think there's any disagreement. I 71 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: don't think there's any disagreement with Jim Comer House Oversight 72 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: Committee leading the investigation into the Biden family syndicate. Knowing 73 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: now what we know that Joe Biden lied to the 74 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 1: country about the issue of I've never once talked to 75 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: my son Hunter about any of his foreign business dealings. 76 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: When we have all the evidence, we'd ever want to 77 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: prove that he lied, and that would explain why he 78 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: withheld a billion taxpayer dollars from Ukraine until a prosecutor 79 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: was fired. If he wasn't talking to his son about 80 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 1: what was going on there in the investigation that the 81 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: prosecutor was conducting on his son, I don't think he 82 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: would have withheld the billion dollars. So that is in 83 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: Stone looking into the origins of COVID and doctor Fauci. 84 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: Those are investigations that we desperately need answers to because 85 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: we were misled, I believe purposely on many occasions as 86 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 1: it relates to COVID, and we lost so many Americans, 87 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: and the fact that our government allowed Fauci to continue 88 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: all of this and not get to the bottom of 89 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: gaining a function who knew what and where moneys from 90 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: the Eco Alliance, from the niage that went to the 91 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: Wuhan Biology Lab. You know, we need answers, and that 92 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: would include, by the way, the horrific withdrawal from Afghanistan. 93 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: So my point is this is I don't see one 94 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: Republican disagreeing with that agenda. Not one. It's baked in cement. 95 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: McCarthy is committed to all of it. Every Republican, I believe, 96 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't know one that doesn't agree with that. Okay, 97 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 1: Now it's the other part of what Republicans need to do. 98 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: And remember, it was McCarthy that came out with it. 99 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: Wasn't anybody else. It was McCarthy who came out with 100 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: the commitments to America. Put his name to paper, and 101 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: this is going to be the agenda. In other words, 102 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: that too, is set in concrete. I'll remind you. I'll 103 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: go over it. I've gone over it before. An economy 104 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: that's strong, fighting inflation, lowering the cost of living, stopping 105 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: wasteful government spending that is raising the price of groceries 106 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: and gas and cars and housing, etcetera, et cetera, on 107 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: a national debt, increased take home pay, how to create 108 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: good paying jobs in the free market, etc. Making America 109 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: energy independent and reducing gas prices. That means he'll fight 110 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: against the new taxes that Biden put on natural gas, 111 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: crude oil, and coal recently. And then of course the 112 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: taxes that he put on corporations that'll be passed on 113 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: to you. And on top of the taxes that they 114 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: put on people that have pension plans. I can't believe 115 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: they tax that after the worst year with the stock 116 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: market since two thousand and eight. Then part two of 117 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: the commitment to America a nation that's safe. It starts 118 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: with securing the boarder, combating illegal immigration, and that means 119 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: going back to the Trump policies, ending catch and release loopholes, 120 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: requiring legal status to get a job, etc. Also reducing 121 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: crime and public safety, and supporting two hundred thousand more 122 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: police officers through recruiting bonuses and opposing all efforts to 123 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,679 Speaker 1: defund and dismantle police departments. That's all in writing crack 124 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 1: down on prosecutors and DA's that won't prosecute crimes while 125 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: permanently criminalizing all forms of illicit fenton al that's killing 126 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: our kids, Defend America's national security, support our troops, invest 127 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: in our military, set establish a select committee in our 128 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: number one geopolitical voe China, exercise peace through strength, build 129 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: up our military. That's also in writing a future that's 130 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: built on freedom, making sure every student can succeed in 131 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: these failing schools we have, and giving parents a voice. 132 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: It's all in writing advance a parents' Bill of rights bill, 133 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 1: recover lost learning from school closures, expand parental choice so 134 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: over a million more students can receive education that their 135 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: parents believe is best. Defending fairness by ensuring that only 136 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: women can compete in women's sports. It's all in writing. 137 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: Achieve longer, healthier lives for Americans. Personalized care to provide 138 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: affordable options, better quality, trusted doctors, lower prices through transparent 139 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 1: arrency choice, invest in life saving cures. Improve access to telemedicine, 140 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: which I think is going to be a big part 141 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: of our medical future. Confront big tech and demand for fairness. 142 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:16,479 Speaker 1: That too, is in writing. Providing greater privacy, data security protections, 143 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 1: equipping parents with more tools to keep their kids safe online, 144 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 1: stop companies from putting politics ahead of people. Well, we're 145 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: gonna have that big investigation. Then. It's also in writing 146 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: keeping government accountable, upholding free speech, protecting the life of 147 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: the unborn and their mother's religious freedom, safeguarding our Second Amendment. 148 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: It's in writing holding Washington accountable, conducting rigorous oversight to 149 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: reign in government abuse of power corruption, provide real transparency. 150 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: It's in writing save and strength in social security and medicare. 151 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: It's in writing restore the people's voice and special treatment 152 00:09:56,120 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 1: for members of Congress by repealing proxy voting and increasing 153 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: accountability in the election process through voter ID, accurate voter rolls, 154 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: and observer access, meaning partisan observers, watch vote county, and 155 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: instilling and institutionalizing in the elections integrity, so we have 156 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: confidence in the results and integrity in the process. So 157 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: that's all in cement. I don't think any Republican disagrees 158 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: with that, or any conservative disagrees with that, And that's 159 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: my point. So in other words, and then if in 160 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: fact he doesn't keep the promise, let's let's go to 161 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 1: the worst case scenario. To me, it's not about Kevin. 162 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 1: It's about what is locked in. All of this is 163 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 1: now locked in. The personalities mean nothing to me. It's 164 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: not about personality. Um. We had a lot of response 165 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: last night to my debate with Lauren Bobert um what 166 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,839 Speaker 1: happened to like and supported in her campaign and we'll 167 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: support again. And she's one of the twenties. So she 168 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: put out a statement a tweet yesterday that said that 169 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: showed her saying that President Trump needs to tell Kevin 170 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: McCarthy that, sir, you don't have the votes and it's 171 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 1: time to withdraw. Okay, So I said, all right, let's 172 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: let's use your math. And it got a little heated 173 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 1: and interruptive, and by the way, I'm listening to your complaints. 174 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: We've come up with a solution for that problem. Tonight, 175 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 1: I'm going to give people thirty seconds to answer. We'll 176 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: we're on o'clock. But it's hard when you have five 177 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: or six minutes in a segment and somebody's not going 178 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: to answer a question. But it's not I understand people's 179 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: frustration watching that, So I apologize. We were putting in 180 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: place a way to resolve that. She didn't want to 181 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 1: answer the question at first. I said, Congresswoman, if that's 182 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: how you're gonna do the math for Kevin McCarthy, he 183 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: has over two hundred people voting for him, he needs 184 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: two eighteen. I say. The people that are opposing him 185 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: are twenty twenty one people at this time. I said, 186 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: if you're telling President Trump that he needs to tell 187 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: McCarthy that he doesn't have the votes, well he's got 188 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: two hundred. Well you don't have the votes with twenty 189 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: or twenty one either. So we're gonna use your math. 190 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: Why don't you withdraw first, considering you have far fewer 191 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: votes than Kevin McCarthy as ninety percent of the Republican vote. 192 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: Some people took that the wrong way. Apparently, but to me, 193 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: it's like, and by the end of the interview, I said, Okay, 194 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: let's say by the end of the week, let's say 195 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: by Friday you can't get to thirty Auntie McCarthy votes, 196 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: would you then follow your own math formula and withdraw? 197 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: And the answer was no. So at that point it's 198 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: my conclusion was and people that you know generally agree 199 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: can have disagreements. My point was, is now just completely 200 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: totally personal. So it doesn't matter what what Kevin McCarthy 201 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 1: seems to do at this point, it doesn't matter what 202 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: concessions he makes. At this point, that there are just 203 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: people that don't want him, And then others would say, well, well, Hannity, 204 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 1: I guess we just have to find somebody else. Well, 205 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: who is that person going to be. I mean, if 206 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan ran, which he's not. I've talked to him 207 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: every day. He's not running, He's not going to be 208 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: an option. And I'm not even sure Jim Jordan can 209 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: get to two eighteen. I'm not sure who at this 210 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 1: point can get to two eighteen. The frustrating part for me, 211 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: if there's anything that's frustrating, is that all two hundred 212 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: and twenty two Republicans, I can pretty much say, confidently 213 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 1: agree on the investigation agenda and agree on the Commitments 214 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: to America agenda. So resolve this. It's locked in cement 215 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: and you have one member at any point can basically 216 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 1: call for a no confidence vote, and that is the 217 00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: motion to vacate if speaker, if he became speakers in 218 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: this case, McCarthy didn't follow through all those promises. To me, 219 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: at that point, it's not about personality to me, It's 220 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: now about the American people, and they need to be 221 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: put at the top of the list. They need to 222 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: be at the top of the pyramid. The people that 223 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: need to be served, the people that voted for all 224 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: of these people. They voted for this change. And while 225 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: they're being somewhat patient, now they're getting sick of it. 226 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: And how do I know, because I'm hearing from a 227 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: lot of you, and there's only so far and so 228 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: much of this that they're going to take before they 229 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: really come down on the Republican Party, and that'll be justifiable. 230 00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: At that point. I'll tell you one thing that can happen, 231 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: and I want to explain this to you. Somebody call me. 232 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: I'm not going to say who tipped me off today 233 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 1: that there's a discussion about doing what they did I 234 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: guess one hundred years ago, and that is just go 235 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 1: to a straight up majority vote in terms of okay, 236 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 1: who do you for speaker? Now? Five Republicans vote president 237 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: or don't vote at all. That would mean Hakim Jeffries 238 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: would become the Speaker of the House. That is not 239 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: a viable option. You have intelligent people that have a disagreement, 240 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 1: and as I said to them in early December, numerous 241 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 1: times different people get in a room and hammer out 242 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: a deal. At some point they owe all of us 243 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: that at some point we've got to demand that. I mean, 244 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: you look at Kim Jeffries. Nobody knows anything about him. 245 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 1: By the way, he's the biggest election denier out there, 246 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 1: denying Donald Trump was elected in twenty sixteen. This guy 247 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: has repeatedly said no limits at all an abortion and 248 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: has called pro life Americans cultist. This is a guy 249 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: in ten years that has produced a whopping six bills 250 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: that actually became law. You know, this is a guy 251 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: that supports sanctuary states. One of the things that I 252 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: found most interesting about him is Hakim Jeffreys in New York, 253 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: by the way, pays a whopping two hundred and thirteen 254 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: dollars a year. Improperty attack is thanks to a sweetheart 255 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: deal under a law that he's supported when he served 256 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: in the state Assembly. Law provides developers and residence property 257 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 1: tax breaks over twenty five or thirty five years in 258 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: exchange for at least twenty percent of the apartment supportable 259 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: moderate to low income residents. Okay, let me tell you something. 260 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: As a New York homeowner, two hundred thirteen dollars, it 261 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: doesn't begin to match what most people pay. All right, 262 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 1: twenty five down to the top of the hour. Thanks 263 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 1: for being with us, eight hundred and nine for one, 264 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: Shawn a number. You want to be a part of 265 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: the program. Look, I've got to remind you that home 266 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: title theft is real, and this is what these criminals 267 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: are doing now, and it's around the world. They target 268 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: you American homeowners. And the only way you can checked 269 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: yourself as with home title lock as I have now 270 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: your home's title. It's a document. It proves that you 271 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: own your home. You can easily find it online and 272 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,439 Speaker 1: then a thief will simply forge your signature on a 273 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: legal document claiming you sold your home to them, then 274 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: they'll take out loans on your home. Then they'll disappear, 275 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: and you probably won't find out until there's a late 276 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: payment notice or even a foreclosure notice show up in 277 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: the mail. Anyway, home insurance and common identity theft programs 278 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: usually don't protect you. Home title lock does. We have 279 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: a special website hometitlelock dot com slash sean and they'll 280 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:43,479 Speaker 1: also give you a free, no obligation home title report 281 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: for your files one hundred dollar value, absolutely free. You know, 282 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: some people have been commenting that they're upset that the 283 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: mob and the media and the Democrats are gloating over 284 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: all this. I don't live my life caring about what 285 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: liberals think. Why should we care? It's it's now. I 286 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: care about getting the job done. I care about the 287 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 1: American people being served the way they deserve. All of 288 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: this should have been worked out long before January third, 289 00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't. You got to deal with reality the hand 290 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: you dealt, not the one you wish you had. You know, 291 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 1: my surprise. James Carville went on MSDNC and said it's 292 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,199 Speaker 1: stunning out there because the Republican Party has traditionally been 293 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: a party of honor, and you're supposed to throw the 294 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,360 Speaker 1: grenade after you pull the pin. They pulled the pin 295 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: and passed the grenade around. I don't have a great 296 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: explanation for it, and it doesn't make any sense. It's politically, 297 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: you know, some version of political suicide. And I don't 298 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: think they care. I would think giving aid and comfort 299 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 1: to people that claim to oppose these things. Here's why 300 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 1: we really do need to get to a speedy resolution 301 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: at all of this. And as I said, I'm not 302 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 1: really I'm not at the point where some people are 303 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: on the ledge on this. Am I getting a little impatient, 304 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: a little ticked off. I think people are being completely 305 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: and totally and utterly illogical and unreasonable. I do. Is 306 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: it frustrating that when you know an agenda is locked in, 307 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: and you know that the commitments are real, which they 308 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: absolutely are, and that there's no disagreement on that aspect 309 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 1: of where the Republican Party is, and you have a 310 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: mechanism and an insurance policy on top of it, and 311 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: pretty much every concession you can make has been made. 312 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: I meanwhile, you know what do we have with the Democrats? Well, 313 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: Joe Biden just raised taxes on natural gas six point 314 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,199 Speaker 1: five billion. You know, of course, breaking his pledge not 315 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: to raise taxes on Americans making under four hundred thousand 316 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: dollars a year, he put a twelve billion dollars tax 317 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: on crude oil. It's going to impact every American a 318 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: one point two billion dollar cold tax. Oh, that's going 319 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 1: to hurt many American families, especially the poor, the middle 320 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: class of people on fixed income. If you think the 321 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: stock market and your four oh one ks and your 322 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: iras weren't hit hard enough last year, well, Joe Biden 323 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: just added a seventy four billion dollars stock tax, which 324 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 1: will hit your four oh one ks, your irase, and 325 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: your pensions. Nobody's paying attention to any of that, or 326 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 1: the two hundred and twenty five billion dollar corporate income 327 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 1: tax hike, which will be passed on to you, the 328 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: American consumer, because oh, let's be honest, it's pretty simple math. 329 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: Corporations don't pay taxes, they pass it on to you. 330 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty two the worst year for the stock market 331 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: since two thousand and eight. So is there a certain 332 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 1: urgency I have that I want these guys to get 333 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: to work, that I want these investigations to move forward. Absolutely. 334 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 1: Is there a certain urgency that I want these agenda 335 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: items on the commitments to America to be checked off 336 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: one by one? Absolutely? You know stories out today as 337 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: they you know, flail around and we keep having, you know, 338 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 1: vote after vote with the same result, and they're not 339 00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: making any progress, at least publicly. I am being told 340 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,719 Speaker 1: privately that there is progress being made that I can 341 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: pass on to you. How much progress is it enough progress? 342 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: I don't know, but as we're dealing with this in 343 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: the meantime. In a year end press release, the Bine 344 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 1: Energy Department included its release of one hundred and ninety 345 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: million barrels of oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as 346 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: second on its list of top twenty twenty two accomplishments. 347 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: It's at the lowest level it's been in fifty years, 348 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 1: and now the cost of a barrel of oil to 349 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: replace it's going to be astronomical. And where we're going 350 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 1: to get it, I don't know, because the one place 351 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: we won't get it is in the United States, where 352 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: we have more resources than all of these countries combined. 353 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 1: By the way, another major retailer may be headed for bankruptcy, 354 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 1: bed Bath and beyond stocks plunging this week, a long 355 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: slide in the stock for home Goods, a company they're 356 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: struggling to stay afloat by the way, the company in 357 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two saw a lot of turmoil.

That's one hundred million dollars more 365 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: relative to the year before. It's a lot of money. 366 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 1: Other bad news on the economy, automakers resort you know 367 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: they now not resort report the worst sales now and 368 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: more than a decade. US auto industry posting their worst 369 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: sales record and more than a decade, in part because 370 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: of Joe Biden's supply chain snarls that he doesn't even 371 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: recognize exist. Industry wide auto sales total thirteen point seven 372 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: million vehicles in twenty twenty two, the lowest figure since 373 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 1: twenty eleven, even Cardi B their rap stars blasting Biden's inflation. 374 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,959 Speaker 1: She went on a sixty second inflation ramp on Twitter, 375 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 1: drawing support from a lot of people, and the viral 376 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: post racked up sixty three thousand likes on Twitter and 377 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: it can feature the PSA with the rapper talking about 378 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: grocery prices tripling up. What the f has going on? 379 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: Cardi B said she received the summary of the money 380 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: that's being spent in her household every week and explained 381 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: that recently life has become far more expensive. Lettuce was 382 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: like two bucks, you know, a short time ago, and 383 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: now it's like seven. I know this because I go 384 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: shopping myself every week. You can see it pretty much 385 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: every item you buy. Former Fedshair Alan Greenspan he now 386 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: says a recession is most likely anyway. He said on 387 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: Tuesday that the US recession is the most likely outcome 388 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: as the Central Bank continues to tighten the monetary policy 389 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: to curb Biden inflation. I told you earlier in the 390 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 1: week since Biden has been president, the average person is experiencing. 391 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: Average household is paid over ten thousand dollars in Biden 392 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 1: inflation taxes, the Biden economy saw America's household wealth plummet 393 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: by thirteen trillion dollars last year alone, thirteen trillion, and 394 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: now he's adding all of these new taxes that's going 395 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,479 Speaker 1: to impact every America American on top of it, and 396 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 1: we're still battling over speed. You know, who's going to 397 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 1: be the speaker, even though you have every assurance what 398 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: the agenda is and an insurance policy to remove any 399 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: speaker chosen with a pretty simple process. Anyways, Biden's student 400 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: debt relief now is quote comfortably within the law. The 401 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: DJ arguing to the Supreme Court, it's not comfortably within 402 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,639 Speaker 1: the law because we have three branches of government. We 403 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: have the judicial branch. They're going to hear this case 404 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: and they will resolve the differences between the executive branch 405 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: that thought that they can just through executive fiat right 406 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 1: a check to all these Americans, but all spending constitutionally 407 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 1: has to go through that other branch of government known 408 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: as the legislative branch. So I'm not sure that that's 409 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 1: going to work. Although we told you the story yesterday 410 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: that the Philly Fed said all these claims of jobs 411 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: that were created didn't materialize. The Bureau of Labor Statistics 412 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: is lying, they say when they created over a million jobs, 413 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: and all they can identify as ten thousand jobs that 414 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 1: were created last year, which by the way, wouldn't surprise me. 415 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 1: Amazon is about to lay off eighteen thousand workers. That 416 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: is a huge amount of money, a huge amount of 417 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: jobs being lost. Rather, so, we got tough economic times, 418 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: very tough economic times. You already feel it yourself. And 419 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: now we have reports that what's two thirds of the 420 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: American people live in paycheck to paycheck, and that includes, 421 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 1: by the way, people that are even making a lot 422 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: of money, or what you would consider to be a 423 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 1: lot of money. Now, when you have a certain salary, 424 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: you buy a certain level of say a property or 425 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: a home that you live in, and maybe a car 426 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,919 Speaker 1: that you buy, and then all of a sudden, your 427 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: money is less. You're losing so much of your money 428 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 1: because of this inflation tax that's hidden, and now all 429 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you can't afford the mortgage on your home, 430 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: you can't afford the car payment that you were used 431 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: to paying every month. And what's your next option, what's 432 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: the next thing you get to do? How do you 433 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: get out of that, it's pretty difficult. A lot of 434 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: people struggling unnecessarily unfairly, and it's why elections matter, which 435 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: brings me. By the way, and I'm not ready to 436 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: talk about twenty twenty four yet. I know some of 437 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: you want to just go right from one election to another. 438 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: If we got to take a break a little bit, 439 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: But I will say this because the time is right 440 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: to talk about it now. And by the way, Debbie 441 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 1: Stabinau announced she's not seeking re election in twenty twenty four, 442 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: the senator from Michigan, So there's going to be a 443 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: very interesting is going to be interesting races. Obviously, the 444 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: presidential race in twenty twenty four will be interesting. The 445 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 1: Senate races favor the Republicans for sure for pickups. Here's 446 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: the problem, and I thought long, and I thought hard 447 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: about this, and Republicans better understand that they are running 448 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 1: elections with like Apple one point zero. Democrats are at 449 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: Apple fourteen point zero. And what do I mean by that? 450 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: Notice that Joe Biden in twenty twenty, Notice that John 451 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: Fetterman in twenty twenty two, and Katie Hobbs in twenty 452 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: twenty two. Notice they all followed the same pattern. They 453 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: spent hundreds of millions of dollars in negative ads against 454 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: their opponents. They warn't out shaking hands, kissing babies, holding rallies, 455 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: giving speeches, offering media avails. They all hid if they debated, 456 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: and most of them didn't. It was after early voting 457 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: went on for weeks and weeks and weeks, I think. 458 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: But by the time that Fetterman debated Oz it was, 459 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: you know, nearly a million votes cast in Pennsylvania. You 460 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: can't have that all debates should take place before one 461 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: vote is cast, all of them, you know. And how 462 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: long are we gonna have voting in perpetuity? But here's 463 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: where Republicans need to understand something. Here. Do you know 464 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: there's only one state in this country that insists that 465 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: the individual casting a ballot must be the one that 466 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: hands in the ballot. You have twenty five states that 467 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: outright support ballot harvesting, in other words, allowing somebody else 468 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: to hand in your ballot. So what's happening Democrats. They're 469 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: not running traditional election campaigns. They're not shaking hands, they're 470 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: not kissing babies, they're not giving speeches, they're not comparing 471 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: and contrasting their views with their opponents. They're not taking selfies, 472 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: no rallies, no media avails. They're spending money on negative ads, 473 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: and they are focused on ballots. Now, do I know 474 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: exactly everything that they're doing. No? Do I know that 475 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 1: what they're doing is working. Yes, it is obvious. It 476 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: is now more obvious and more transparent than ever. Am 477 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: I accusing them of breaking the law? No? Do a 478 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: lot of these states allow this process to go board unfortunately. Yes. 479 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: What I'm telling Republicans is you better fix the way 480 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: that you run elections. You need to study what the 481 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: Democrats are doing, and you must match their efforts or 482 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: outperform them in the ballot game that they're playing. They're 483 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: not running traditional election campaigns anymore. This is a new 484 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:30,479 Speaker 1: environment now. That also means that Republicans they're gonna have 485 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: to adjust for those of you that have been reluctant, 486 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,479 Speaker 1: for those of you that have been resistant at the 487 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: idea of voting early, at the idea of voting by mail. 488 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: You've got to overcome your reluctance and your resistance.
