15
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: to talk about today. I wanted to stop for a

16
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: second on tax Day because today is the last tax

17
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: day for which the Trump tax cuts will be in

18
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,479
Speaker 1: effect unless Congress acts. And I just want to remind

19
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: people if Congress does not act next year, almost all

20
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: of us everyone watching tonight will have a much higher

21
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: tax BILM.

22
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 2: It's a number one priority.

23
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about that with two members of

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: Congress and a little bit in the show, but just

25
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: a reminder of how consequential that will be. All right,

26
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: another day and another drama playing out between the courts

27
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: and Donald Trump. That sounds familiar, right, It's like clockwork

28
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: at this point. And today the focus is on Kilmar

29
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,759
Speaker 1: Abrego Garcia, the migrant that was deported by the Trump

30
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,759
Speaker 1: administration after accusations that.

31
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: He was an MS thirteen gang member.

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: Abrigo Garcia has denied those allegations, but he was deported anyway,

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 1: sent back to a Salvador in jail. That President Trump

34
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: and Salvador and President Buclee struck a deal to send

35
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: violent illegal aliens too, and that has created a lot

36
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: of legal uncertainties, with a federal judge ruling that Garcia

37
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: should be allowed.

38
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: Back into the country.

39
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: In fact, that judges held a hearing a few minutes ago,

40
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: very contentious hearing, very upset with the Trump administration. Now,

41
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court also issued a ruling that said the

42
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: administration must facilitate bringing Abrago Garcia back. However, today the

43
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: Supreme Court said, we'll give you more time convinced this otherwise.

44
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: The Trump administration says their hands are tied now that

45
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: Abrego Garcia, who is an El Salvador and citizen, is

46
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: back in his home country. Lauri's ro Abrigo Garcia. We're

47
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: in front of that Maryland judge that originally ordered to

48
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: be returned to the United States. As I said earlier today,

49
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: they argue for the Trump administration should bring him back

50
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: immediately or at least formally requests to Al Salvador that

51
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: he be released. We're going to keep an eye on

52
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: that all throughout the night over at justinews dot com

53
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: and here, of course a Real America's Voice. One other

54
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: programming note, we may be going down to Georgia in

55
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: a little bit. There's a town hall involving Marjorie Taylor Green,

56
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: the chairwoman of the Doge Subcommittee, one of more important

57
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,040
Speaker 1: members in Congress these days.

58
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: She's going to be talking to her constituents.

59
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: There's rumors that protesters, maybe paid protesters, are going to

60
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 1: create a disruption here. If that happens, we're going to

61
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: take you down to Brian Glenn and live to that.

62
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, it's a great time to bring

63
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: in my amazing Coast amandadlines watching Amanda.

64
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 3: That's enough all that they want is a formal request

65
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 3: to return to Brego Garcia. I think the Trump administration

66
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 3: should formally request it.

67
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 4: You know, see what happened.

68
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 2: I couldn't see it that I got something in it.

69
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 4: I don't know, all right.

70
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 3: I want to start with the Ivy League and Harvard specifically.

71
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 4: We spoke about this a.

72
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: Little bit last night, but some more news has been

73
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 3: made in the battle between Harvard and the Trump administration

74
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 3: since then. It started this morning with a Trumps with

75
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: a Truth social post sent out by President Trump.

76
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 4: He wrote, perhaps Harvard.

77
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 3: Should lose its tax exempt status and be taxed as

78
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 3: a political entity if it keeps pushing political ideological and

79
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: terrorists inspired supporting sickness. Remember, tax eximpt status is totally

80
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 3: contingent on acting in the public interest, and that is

81
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 3: after the Trump administration already froze two point two billion

82
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 3: dollars in federal grants and sixty million dollars in contracts

83
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 3: to Harvard after the university refused to comply with DEI

84
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 3: policy changes requested by the federal government, and that, of

85
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 3: course led Harvard to respond saying they would not comply

86
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 3: with the Trump administration's demands even if it came down

87
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 3: to losing billions and billions of dollars, and wouldn't you

88
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 3: know what? A very famous Harvard alum decided to speak

89
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: out on this issue to former President Barack Obama, who

90
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 3: said that the way Harvard is handling all of this

91
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 3: sets an example for how colleges should reject Trump's demands.

92
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: He wrote on x Harvard has set an example for

93
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 3: other higher education institutions rejecting an unlawful and ham handed

94
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 3: attempt to stifle academic freedom while taking concrete steps to

95
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 3: make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an

96
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 3: environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate, and mutual respect. It's

97
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 3: worth noting what the Trump administration is asking Harvard to do.

98
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 3: It includes implementing merit based hiring, reforming programs with a

99
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 3: history of anti Semitism, and getting rid of diversity, equity

100
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: and inclusion policies. And John to what he was saying

101
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: about rigorous debate, considering ninety seven percent of professorial sis

102
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 3: staff at Harvard is liberal, I don't think too many

103
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 3: rigorous debates are happening in the hallowed halls.

104
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: Of Harvard, and isn't too much fair fairness to conservatives

105
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: at Harvard for a long time. Those three items that

106
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: the Trump administration is pursuing are just common sense I

107
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: of him. They're eighty seventy eighty percent issues with the

108
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: American public. Really remarkable. And you know, I have an

109
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: idea if Barack Obama would like Harvard to set an

110
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 1: example for other colleges, maybe Donald Trump can set an

111
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: example for other colleges by saying, spend your own.

112
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:28,679
Speaker 2: Money.

113
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 1: I mean they got a fifty billion dollar domin there.

114
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: I mean they got plenty of money, and they.

115
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 4: Want to keep soaking us a very put your money

116
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 4: where my mouth is.

117
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: We'll see charge what fifty sixty grand a year Togo?

118
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: I think we're very lucky. Our first guest has a

119
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: lot to say about this. He's been a champion of

120
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: common sense spending and cutting spending him long before it

121
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: became fastball. Washington. He's the chairman of House Freedom Caucus.

122
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 1: Any heris man chance to talk to him a little while.

123
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: There's a few minutes back ago. Take a look joining

124
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: us now from the great standa Maryland the congressman and

125
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 1: House Freedom Caucus chairman, and he heres, Congressman, good to

126
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: have you back on the show.

127
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 5: Good to be with you.

128
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 2: All Right, it's tax Day.

129
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: Everybody's once again lamenting how much we have to turn

130
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: over to Uncle Sam every year. But it could be

131
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 1: a lot worse next year. How important is it to

132
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: get the tax cuts? And what sort of games are

133
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: Democrats playing to keep the Trump tax cuts from being renewed.

134
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 6: Well, they certainly want taxes to go up next year.

135
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 6: They want the Trump tax cuts to expire. That would

136
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 6: be devastating for the economy, devastating for our small businesses

137
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 6: because the only tax that's permanent tax reduction from last

138
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 6: time is the corporate income tax.

139
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 5: The pass to.

140
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,840
Speaker 6: Record small businesses, their taxes would go up. Obviously, every

141
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 6: individual's taxes, tax would go up. So again, we just

142
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 6: don't think that's a good idea for our economy. We

143
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 6: don't think that's a good idea for America. So we're

144
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 6: going to extend those tax cuts, and then we're going

145
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 6: to find ways to pay for some of those tax

146
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 6: cuts with spending reduction, which really needs to be done.

147
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:58,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, on the spending reductions, it certainly seems like the

148
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,599
Speaker 3: Republican Caucus is pretty unified behind that.

149
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 4: Are there any stragglers.

150
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 6: Well, I think there's some who are afraid that once

151
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 6: we go past about one trillion over ten years, which

152
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 6: really is a drop in the bucket, that we're going

153
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 6: to have to go into medicaid. But look, there is

154
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 6: plenty of waste, fraud, and abuse in medicaid. You know,

155
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 6: when California is gaming the system to get federal Medicaid

156
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 6: dollars so that they can give free healthcare to illegal

157
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 6: immigrants through Medicaid, while you know, middle class taxpayers have

158
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 6: to pay taxes, pay their premiums. California is using federal

159
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 6: Medicaid dollars to give free healthcare to illegal immigrants. That

160
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 6: kind of abuse just has to end.

161
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 4: Three billion dollar mellow.

162
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's remarkable, And when you look at the polling data,

163
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: Americans do not like that as a use of their

164
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: tax dollars. So I want to turn to another place

165
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: where there's some potential savings. The number one purchased item

166
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: from SNAP the food stamp program is sugary drinks, soft drinks, sodas. Today,

167
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: the Arkansas Governessor, Huckaby Sanders became the first state to

168
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 1: submit an application to ban those sort of purchases. How

169
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: important is that it can save money, but also can

170
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: save health.

171
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 6: Right, Well, that's absolutely right, and to be honest with you,

172
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 6: other states have tried to do it, but during Democrat administrations,

173
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 6: but the Democrat secretaries of Agriculture claim they couldn't, they

174
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 6: didn't have the authority to do it. But they actually do,

175
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 6: and congratulations to Secretary Rollins for using that authority. And really,

176
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 6: sweetened beverages really should be unless it's a fruit juice,

177
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 6: they really shouldn't be allowed to be purchased with nutrition

178
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 6: dollars because that's what the SNAP program is all about.

179
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 6: And that amounts to about somewhere between ten and fifteen

180
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,079
Speaker 6: billion dollars a year. It's a real amount of money

181
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 6: that's going to make Americans unhealthy rather than healthy. So

182
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 6: I think it's a great decision. I think there are

183
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 6: a whole lot more states going to jump on board

184
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 6: with that.

185
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 3: Is it something that has to be state by state

186
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 3: or can Congress do something to enforce it?

187
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 6: We could do something, and with President and Trump in office,

188
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 6: we might do something nationally. Right right now, it has

189
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 6: to be state by state unless Congress takes action to

190
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 6: ban those again sugary beverages. We should also be looking

191
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,679
Speaker 6: at the salty snacks. We should be looking at something

192
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,080
Speaker 6: that really doesn't add nutrition. And you know the upside

193
00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,439
Speaker 6: of that is those dollars that people would use to

194
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 6: buy sugary beverages they can buy other things. I actually

195
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 6: think we should begin to looking at SNAP and maybe

196
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 6: require people to buy only American products with it, so

197
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 6: that our farmers and our ranchers, they're the ones who

198
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 6: benefit and can sell their products into the SNAP program.

199
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 6: I think this is just the start of of a

200
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 6: very major trend in the SNAP program.

201
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, and one that's probably long Overdoe. I think Americans

202
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: will be excited when they see the outcome of that.

203
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: There is a gentleman who was in your state for

204
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: quite some time that's now in an El Salvador in prison.

205
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: The media likes to call him a Maryland resident. The

206
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,839
Speaker 1: Trump administration likes to call him an illegal alien. Tell

207
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,319
Speaker 1: us what you've been told by the United States government

208
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: about mister or brig with Garcia.

209
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 5: Well, look, the facts are very clear.

210
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 6: Mister Garcia is only a citizen of one jurisdiction, El Salvador.

211
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,200
Speaker 6: He's not a citizen of Maryland. He's not a citizen

212
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 6: of the United States. He's a citizen of l Salvador,

213
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 6: and he's back home where he is a citizen. It's

214
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 6: now up to El Salvador what they want to do

215
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 6: with their citizen. This is again, this is not a

216
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 6: citizen of the United States. He came here illegally. He

217
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 6: never gained citizenship status here, so he's back where he belongs, Sarah.

218
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:33,199
Speaker 3: Senator from your state, Chris van Holland claims he's going to.

219
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 4: Go down to El Salvador.

220
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 3: And while I doubt he's going to be able to

221
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,839
Speaker 3: jail break this person, I do wonder if Democrats are

222
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 3: thinking past the step of bringing him back, because wouldn't

223
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 3: he just be rearrested here and go back into our jails.

224
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 4: It's either jail there or jail here.

225
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 5: That's right.

226
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 6: He's been before immigration court twice, once with an immigration

227
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 6: court and then with an appeals immigration court, both of

228
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 6: which had found that he was an MS thirteen gang member.

229
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 5: They will find it again and they will deport him.

230
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 6: The amazing thing is that the senator wants to spend

231
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 6: US taxpayer dollars to go to El Salvador to go

232
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 6: after an El Salvador citizen. I think the average American

233
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 6: who pays their taxes just thinks that is an incredible

234
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,440
Speaker 6: waste of their tax dollars, and I think it is too.

235
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I want to turn to the work that

236
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 1: lies ahead. When Congress gets back from the Eastern recess.

237
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,920
Speaker 1: You've got the spending cuts, the big beautiful bill to

238
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,920
Speaker 1: see our tell us. We know Mike Johnson's committed to

239
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: one point five trillion, It's kind of hard to tell

240
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: what the Senate is committed to.

241
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: Where do you think that this will all turn out

242
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,439
Speaker 2: when a final bill is ready for passage.

243
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 6: I do think we're going to have at least one

244
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 6: point five trillion dollars and cuts over the next ten years. Again,

245
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 6: considering that our projected budget deficit is twenty trillion over

246
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 6: the next ten years, one point five trillion is really

247
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 6: a drop in the bucket. But I think we're going

248
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 6: to get there, or maybe even higher, because we now

249
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 6: have commitments that this bill will not increase the That's

250
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 6: very important at a time when our federal dead is

251
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 6: at record levels, our federal deaf sits are at record levels.

252
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 6: We can't pass a reconciliation bill that would increase the

253
00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:09,679
Speaker 6: deaf sit.

254
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: I think, all right, folks, we're going to break out

255
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: of that really great interview. You can watch all of

256
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: it at Justinus dot com. But there's about a couple

257
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 1: of minutes left. But we want to turn down to Georgia.

258
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,319
Speaker 1: We told you that Brian Glenn is down there. Things

259
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 1: you're heating up at the Marjorie Taylor Green town Hall

260
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: with her constituents. We're going to bring in Brian Glenn

261
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: right now. Brian, give us an update. What's going on

262
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:28,839
Speaker 1: on the ground there.

263
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 7: This is funded. The Democrats have been the party of violence, all.

264
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: Right, So yeah, we're gonna actually just let's say, we're

265
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: gonna take you live to the scene and we'll get

266
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: Brian on the scenes. We get a near piece of microphone.

267
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 1: Guys when we roll what's going on at the hearing

268
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 1: right now?

269
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 2: If we could.

270
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 7: This is let me tell you this is funded. The

271
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 7: Democrats have been rioting. They are the party of violence.

272
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,840
Speaker 7: They are the party.

273
00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 8: Go go God.

274
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 9: If you listen to want to listen everyone across the aisle, Democrats, Independents, Republicans.

275
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 9: This is a good place. You have a lot to learn.

276
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 9: And with that, I'll start with our first video.

277
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 10: Kayla, h.

278
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 7: My mind needs to be cunned on.

279
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:49,079
Speaker 8: Okay, everyone knows.

280
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,000
Speaker 1: Everyone knows that getting rid of the deficit will require

281
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: some tough decisions that includes cutting back on We're gonna

282
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: try to bring in Brian Glenn in a second, I think,

283
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: and get a little bit more of an update.

284
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 2: This has been going on for about three four week.

285
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: It looks like an organized effort from the left, Amanda

286
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: to have protesters, probably paid protesters. We think we haven't done.

287
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: We haven't been able to file in the money yet,

288
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: but they seem like people that are familiar protester figures,

289
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: showing up even in super conservative place, trying to make

290
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: a racket, trying to make a scene, trying to get

291
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: the local newspaper, local TV station or CNN to cover it.

292
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 1: It's a stunt, and many times lawmakers try to coddle this.

293
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: But we think at the end of the day, Margie

294
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: Jay are being going to probably take these guys on

295
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: straight on. You saw pretty quickly the response he had,

296
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: which is Democrats are the party patrisch, she said, and

297
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: violence and disruption, and we're trying to get the people's

298
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: business done.

299
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 2: So let me check with Control room. Cookie, guys, do

300
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 2: we have Brian yet?

301
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: We don't, okay, so it's going to get him to

302
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: mic So all right, Well, Amanda, I think as you

303
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: look at this, it's going to continue all through the

304
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 1: Eastern recesses. It's probably gona happen all through the summer.

305
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, Americans are more

306
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: interested in seeing progress on the issues they care about

307
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: rather than protests. They've had their failer protests for the

308
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: last five years, and I think I have more of that.

309
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: All right, were gonna take a quick commercial break one week.

310
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,800
Speaker 1: Come back, we'll have another great interview with another member

311
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: of Congress. For first, here a word from our great

312
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: sponsors and partners here at Real America's Voice.

313
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 4: Welcome back, everybody.

314
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 3: After a very busy week on Capitol Hill last week,

315
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 3: what's next?

316
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 4: What's coming down the pike?

317
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 11: Congress has a lot to get done, cutting the deficit,

318
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 11: balancing the budget, delivering tax relief to Americans, including those

319
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 11: tax cuts making them permanent, further securing the border, and

320
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 11: so much more so, How to House Republicans do all

321
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 11: of that with such a slim majority. Joining us now

322
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 11: to discuss that and more. Representing the great state of Michigan,

323
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 11: Tom Barrett joining us now the Congressman from the great

324
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 11: state of Michigan, Tom Barrett, Congressman, thank you so much

325
00:15:58,360 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 11: for being.

326
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 5: Here and thanks for having me.

327
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 4: I appreciate it absolutely, sir.

328
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 3: Whether it's this term or even President Trump's first term,

329
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 3: he makes a habit of bringing people back home. Of course,

330
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: he brought NASA astronauts back recently, and then two Americans

331
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 3: down in Mexico.

332
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 4: You were a part of that mission. You said it

333
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 4: was a wild ride. Tell us about it.

334
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 12: It was, you know, I was really proud that we

335
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 12: were able to bring home Paul and Christi a Ko

336
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 12: back home from Mexico.

337
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 5: They had been detained at a maximum.

338
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 12: Security Mexican prison over a time share dispute with a

339
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 12: resort down in Mexico. We were first made aware of

340
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 12: this a few weeks into their detention when their daughter,

341
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 12: who's a constituent of mine, raised this issue on social media.

342
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 12: Kind of became a media story, and I was quickly

343
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 12: in contact with their family and then as well as

344
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 12: with the state department. We had felt after about five

345
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 12: or six days that really the conversations to secure their

346
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 12: release were not advancing in the direction we needed them

347
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 12: to go. So I decided kind of late in the

348
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 12: day the night before we left to travel down there

349
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 12: as quickly as possible. Took the first flight down to

350
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 12: Kiangpun that we could get the next morning out of

351
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 12: Dallas Airport. And their case was supposed to last six

352
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 12: months to a year, where they were going to be

353
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,400
Speaker 12: detained at that prison in Mexico that entire time, and

354
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,640
Speaker 12: we were able to get them safely returned home off

355
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 12: the ground in traveling back to Michigan within thirty.

356
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 5: Two hours of when I arrived.

357
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 12: So a lot went into that, a lot of negotiations

358
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 12: between all the different parties. Were closely with our State

359
00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 12: Department folks on the ground there with the Mexican officials,

360
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 12: met with the Mexican Supreme Court, was in contact with

361
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 12: the resort company that was in the dispute with the couple,

362
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 12: and then worked with the attorneys for the couple back

363
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 12: home as well as their Mexican representation to get everything done.

364
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 5: I can tell you when I.

365
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 12: Arrived in Mexico, I told the Mexican officials that I

366
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 12: was there for one reason to bring Paul and Christie home,

367
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 12: and then I wasn't leaving without them, And thirty two

368
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 12: hours later we got on a flight to come back

369
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 12: to Michigan, and it was great to see that come together.

370
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,360
Speaker 2: They knew you meant business and that helps a lot

371
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 2: that when you come in with.

372
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 12: I can tell you the unsung hero of the entire

373
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 12: occasion was my daughter Gwen, who turned eight a couple

374
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 12: of days after I got to Mexico, and I knew

375
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 12: I had to be home for her birthday, so that

376
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 12: was the extra.

377
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 5: Motivation to get it and get it done on time.

378
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: That's such a great story. So I want to ask

379
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. I mean, this is a silly dispute

380
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: about timeshare. We don't put people in prison over timeshare disputes.

381
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 1: Is there some backstory to the sentiments in Mexico right

382
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: now and the Trump era that played into this or

383
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: was it just someone overreaching?

384
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: Yeah?

385
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 12: I didn't see any evidence of a diplomatic reaction from

386
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 12: the Mexican government in this case. What I observed was

387
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 12: kind of an escalation that went back and forth ultimately

388
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 12: resulted in this thing really getting out of control. And

389
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 12: then once it was in the Mexican court system that

390
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 12: is so problematic and has so.

391
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 5: Many bureaucratic delays.

392
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 12: Really, I would say thirty or forty percent of my

393
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 12: effort down there was just getting the Mexican court system

394
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 12: to bring their case up for another review so that

395
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 12: we could simultaneously negotiate the outcome with the resort company

396
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 12: so that basically both parties could then move forward. And

397
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 12: what we were able to secure at the final outcome

398
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 12: of this was that the company and the couple put

399
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 12: together a joint statement with neither side taking blame or responsibility.

400
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 12: The legal proceeding in Mexico was able to be done

401
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 12: where Paul and Christy were not required to plead guilty

402
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 12: to anything, there was no assignment of responsibility that way,

403
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 12: and then a financial settlement where the couple and the

404
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 12: resort company split the difference. There was about one hundred

405
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 12: and sixteen thousand dollars of disputed charges from this time

406
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 12: shi shared dispute. They each put a half share of

407
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 12: that into a into a joint amount that went to

408
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 12: a Mexican charity that runs an orphanage in Cancun, and

409
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 12: Paul and Christie had volunteered at that orphanage on a

410
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 12: prior visit they had made to Mexico, so the beneficiary

411
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 12: ultimately was this orphanage. Neither side took, you know, responsibility.

412
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 12: We also in the you know, one of the concessions

413
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 12: that we did as I worked on getting a Facebook

414
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 12: page taken down that was kind of had assembled a

415
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 12: lot of criticisms of the resort company and I was

416
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 12: urging the release of the couple. So once we were

417
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 12: off the ground and on our way back to the

418
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 12: United States, I had made a commitment to the resort

419
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 12: company that my office and that we would work to

420
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 12: diligently take down that page because that was a you know,

421
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 12: an interest that they had, And really, for me, my

422
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 12: main focus and my exclusive focus really was on bringing

423
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 12: Paul and Christie home, whatever that was going to take.

424
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 12: And I'm glad we were able to get that done.

425
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 3: Congressman, you serve our nation in a suit on Capitol Hill,

426
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 3: but you also serve in uniform, and I know that

427
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: your very first bill passed last week.

428
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 4: Congratulations.

429
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 3: Tell us about the Clear Communications for Veterans Claims Act.

430
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 12: Yeah, thank you. And this was really important to me.

431
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 12: As you pointed out, I served twenty two years in

432
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 12: the Army.

433
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 5: That's really.

434
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 12: The biggest life experience that I've ever had was serving

435
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 12: in uniform in the United States. Army in a major

436
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 12: point of pride for me, and the greatest adventure I've

437
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 12: ever had was serving in the Army, and so much

438
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 12: of what I witnessed and battle buddies that I've served

439
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 12: with who've come home and reintegrated back into civilian life

440
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,480
Speaker 12: have really struggled interfacing with the VA, and we've made

441
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 12: some significant.

442
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 5: Strides that improving that.

443
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 12: But really right now, if you file acclaim with the VA,

444
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 12: the bureaucracy that takes place can be really challenging for

445
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 12: veterans navigate. This isn't something that they do every day.

446
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 12: This is something they do maybe once ever in their

447
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 12: entire life. And sadly, what we've is that a lot

448
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 12: of veterans just give up the claims process because it

449
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 12: becomes too bureaucratic and too challenging for them. I've done

450
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 12: this myself, where you file an application or a claim

451
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 12: with the VA and you get a lot of response

452
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:19,679
Speaker 12: back from automated systems and computer interfacing that sends you

453
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 12: a letter in the mail, and it's hard to determine

454
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 12: is this just summarizing my claim?

455
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,720
Speaker 5: Is this acknowledging that the VA received it?

456
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,960
Speaker 12: Is this an adjudication of my claim is this an

457
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 12: attempt to ask for more records either from the military

458
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 12: or the medical side of things. So really, what this

459
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 12: bill will do is it puts veterans in the position

460
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 12: of being the ones that what's the VA is supposed

461
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 12: to do, which is support veterans, and it really requires

462
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 12: the VA to use outside counsel, if you will, to

463
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 12: really analyze and look at the response that they give

464
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 12: to veterans through the exchange of letters back and forth,

465
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 12: to make sure that they are done in a way

466
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 12: that veterans are going to be able to easily interpret

467
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,399
Speaker 12: from that what their necessary obligation and response is. So

468
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 12: a lot of these are done by bureaucrats within the departments,

469
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 12: and they're.

470
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,160
Speaker 5: Certainly looking at it from their own lens.

471
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 12: Of the process that they use to process these claims,

472
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 12: and really we want to look at it through the

473
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 12: lens of the veterans that are interfacing with the department

474
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 12: and not the other way around.

475
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 5: So that's what this bill will do.

476
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 12: We hope that it will serve to benefit veterans who

477
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 12: won't feel it's frustrated and then hopefully won't abandon.

478
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 5: Their claims and see them through to the finish line.

479
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,240
Speaker 1: Putting the service back in customer service and making a sample.

480
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: It's going to be hugely appreciated across the entire VA world.

481
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,640
Speaker 1: So I want to talk a little bit about how

482
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: the tariffs are playing out in Michigan. There seems to

483
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 1: be that people on main Street and the factories are

484
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: very happy, and it seems like it puts people like, well,

485
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: I've got your Whitman sometimes in awkward positions. Your thoughts

486
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,120
Speaker 1: of how it's playing out in Michigan right now.

487
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,400
Speaker 5: Well, I know that Governor Whitman traveled to Washington, DC.

488
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 12: Everybody saw the photos and video of the governor in

489
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 12: the Oval Office interfacing with Trump, and there you have

490
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 12: her on screen covering her face. That was just woefully embarrassing.

491
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 12: But you know, just prior to going to the Oval Office,

492
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 12: Governor Whitmer was in a you know, on some speech

493
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 12: and on a panel and was kind of criticizing some

494
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 12: of the application of these terrafts. But then when somebody

495
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 12: asked her what she would do differently, she really couldn't

496
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 12: cite any specific change she would do other than what

497
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 12: President Trump is already doing. And I think Americans understand

498
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 12: that we have to have a strong resilient manufacturing base

499
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 12: in our country.

500
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 5: Their variety of reasons. Economic reasons certainly are one of those.

501
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,639
Speaker 12: But from there you look at the cultural effect of

502
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 12: where we've really degraded the value of work, and the

503
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 12: outcome of that is that families struggle. The social fabric

504
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 12: that binds our communities together has really degraded.

505
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 5: We have seven million working.

506
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 12: Age men in the United States today that are not

507
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 12: seeking work and are not working in America today.

508
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 5: That is a huge cultural void.

509
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 12: You think of the effect that ha as on raising

510
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,879
Speaker 12: families and the responsibility of leadership that you know often

511
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 12: it falls not entirely on men, but you know, certainly

512
00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 12: men tend to be ones that are outworking in the

513
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,120
Speaker 12: economy and the greatest percentage.

514
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 5: And really we now.

515
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,920
Speaker 12: Have seven million men aged twenty five to fifty five

516
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,080
Speaker 12: that have really removed themselves in the workforce. They're not

517
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 12: even considered unemployed because they're not seeking work. And from

518
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 12: a national security lens, we don't have the ability to

519
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 12: defend ourselves in battle any longer without being able to

520
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 12: build the machinery it takes to do that. And if

521
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 12: we have outsourced and offshored so much of that critical

522
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 12: infrastructure ability.

523
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 5: There could be a time in America.

524
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 12: Where we are going to regret that, and I don't

525
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 12: want to see it come to that, certainly, But in

526
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 12: the event, we do have to defend ourselves someday. We

527
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 12: have to make sure that we have the critical ability

528
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 12: to do that and that our manufacturing base is resilience.

529
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 12: There's a lot of reasons why some of this is important.

530
00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 12: The members of the Republican delegation from Michigan recently we

531
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 12: met with Mary Barrow, the CEO of General Motors, and

532
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 12: she was giving us example after example of how foreign

533
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 12: governments have set up block in barriers to entry for

534
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 12: American goods to go into their marketplace. Some of that

535
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 12: is terriorf related, but some of that is other, you know,

536
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 12: policies that they enact that just make it very, very

537
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 12: difficult for American manufacturers and enter their markets.

538
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 5: So I think we all agree something needs to be

539
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 5: done about it.

540
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 12: President Trump has really grabbed the reins to do that,

541
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,640
Speaker 12: and I think that Americans respect and understand that these things, you.

542
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 5: Know, don't happen in a vacuum.

543
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 12: But on the other end of this, the outcome of

544
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 12: this that we're hoping for is that we'll have a

545
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 12: stronger economy, stronger national security posture, will re establish the

546
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 12: value of work in American society, in the full potential

547
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 12: of every American to go out and achieve their dreams.

548
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 12: And that's something that I think is worth pursuing.

549
00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 3: Well, I know that people of Michigan appreciate everything you do,

550
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,159
Speaker 3: and look in Gretchen Whitmer's defense as a woman, I

551
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 3: can understand not always wanting your picture to be taken,

552
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 3: like maybe at seven am before makeup with a retainer

553
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 3: in your mouth. But everybody knows when you go on

554
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 3: the Oval Office you should be camera ready.

555
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 4: But I guess I guess that was not the case.

556
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 4: Congress and Tom Barrett, thanks so much for being here.

557
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 5: Sir, Thank you for having me.

558
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 3: I really appreciate it absolutely, See you soon, all right, everybody,

559
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 3: And just a quick news update. Just a little while ago,

560
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 3: President Trump in the Oval Office signed another executive order

561
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,719
Speaker 3: expanding on his first terms progress in lowering prescription drug prices.

562
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 3: You could find all that information aggregated over at Just

563
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,119
Speaker 3: the News. We are going to keep an eye on

564
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 3: what's happening down in Georgia with Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green's

565
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 3: town hall and we'll be back with that after this BREAKID.

566
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 13: United States Agency for International Development needs to be abolished.

567
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:02,439
Speaker 10: Now, USAID is going to be abolished. And thanks to

568
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 10: President Trump and thanks to his administration for that great work,

569
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:11,400
Speaker 10: thanks to Marco Rubio, our Secretary of State, it will

570
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 10: be abolished.

571
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 7: You see, USAID is not AID. It's not AID.

572
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 10: It's been used and abused and this money has gone

573
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 10: into places it should have never gone to. And so

574
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 10: we're thankful to know that that is going to be

575
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 10: a big part of the recision package that the White

576
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 10: House is going to be recommending, and we can't wait

577
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 10: to get to work on that now. The next hearing

578
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:39,360
Speaker 10: i'd like to talk about was in PR and PBS,

579
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 10: and as chair of the Douche Committee, we looked into

580
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 10: to NPR and PBS and we had them come before

581
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 10: us on our committee as witnesses.

582
00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 7: And we can go ahead and play that clip.

583
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 13: KAYLA Corporation for Public Broadcasting is using taxpayer dollars to

584
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 13: actively suppress the trade press divers viewpoints and produce some

585
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 13: of them as outlandish LUs content. After listening to what

586
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 13: we've heard today, we will be calling for the complete

587
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 13: and total defund and dismantling.

588
00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,400
Speaker 7: Of the Corporation for Public.

589
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 14: Broadcasting operate on their own without government funding.

590
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,160
Speaker 7: We believe that you all can hate us on your

591
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:34,280
Speaker 7: own gun.

592
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 10: Right, You could hate us on your own dime, but

593
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:49,360
Speaker 10: the American people don't have to pay for it. Another

594
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 10: thing I'd like to talk about is something that is

595
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 10: very important piece of legislation that I'm working on called

596
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 10: Protect Children's Innocence Act. This is a b that will

597
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 10: criminalize sex changes in children.

598
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 7: Go ahead and play that, Caylee, Do you have one?

599
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 14: Compis the guys that will probaly banning and criminalizing sex changes.

600
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 5: On children and forever ending the lie.

601
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 2: That any child is trapped in their wrong body.

602
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 7: This is a higlie. Did you.

603
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 5: Have any child in the.

604
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 7: Argus that you are perfect exactly the way.

605
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:35,920
Speaker 5: God made you?

606
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 7: This is a fundamental truth.

607
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 10: This is fundamental God made away his image male and female.

608
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 10: We are made This is this is a basic founding

609
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 10: of who we are. Children have to be left alone,

610
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 10: they have to grow up. And my bill to Protect

611
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 10: Children's in a sense Act will criminalize sex changes on children.

612
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,520
Speaker 10: Hormone therapies, all the drugs that are being used on

613
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 10: these kids.

614
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:14,600
Speaker 4: Think about it.

615
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 7: These kids aren't old enough to get a tattoo.

616
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 10: They aren't old enough to buy cigarettes, alcohol, join the military.

617
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 10: Some of these kids aren't even old enough to get

618
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 10: a driver's license and drive a car. There should be

619
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 10: no way that any adult is brainwashing a child with

620
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 10: a lie.

621
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 7: And it is a lie. I want you to think

622
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 7: about this.

623
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 10: The Biden administration declared Transvisibility Day on Easter.

624
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 7: On Easter.

625
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 10: This year, President Trump is celebrating Holy Week and we

626
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 10: will be celebrating the real.

627
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 7: Meaning of Easter.

628
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 10: The resurrection of Jesus Christ is on God.

629
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 7: This is a war of good versus evil.

630
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 10: And when they are going after our kids, you better.

631
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 7: Bet that we will stand up and not let you

632
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 7: come after our kids.

633
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 10: This was this was one of the biggest issues in

634
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 10: the election. It's it's across the aisle.

635
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 7: It's a more than eighty percent issue.

636
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 10: More than eighty percent Democrats and Republicans agree that we

637
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 10: got to protect our kids. And for long enough that

638
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 10: lie has been told, and it's disgusting, it's repulsive. Look,

639
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 10: adults can do whatever they want, whatever they want, but

640
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 10: leave our kids alone.

641
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 7: Now, I want to I want to talk to you.

642
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 10: You've got a packet of information that has a lot

643
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 10: of details, and instead of me going through.

644
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 7: It all, I'm not going to waste our time doing that.

645
00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 7: Before before I wrap up, I want.

646
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 10: To talk about what happened in the past four years

647
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 10: under the Biden administration that should.

648
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 7: Have never happened.

649
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 10: The government was weaponized against the American people, and after

650
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 10: January sixth, many people were arrested.

651
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 7: Now I want you to know, serving in Congress, I

652
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:19,920
Speaker 7: have not.

653
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 10: Watched the pro Hamath, pro Palestinian pro Gods of protesters.

654
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 10: I have not watched them be prosecuted like the DOJ

655
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 10: went after January sixth protesters.

656
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 7: So I want to thank President Trump.

657
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 10: I want to thank President Trump for what he did

658
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 10: for January sixth defendants.

659
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 7: Kaylee, you can go ahead and pull that up.

660
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 10: The j six pardons were answer the prayers and the

661
00:33:54,800 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 10: pro lifers too. Biden's DOJ went after people that peacefully

662
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,840
Speaker 10: protested abortions and he pardoned them as well, and he

663
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 10: said it was an easy one.

664
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 7: That was a note, a personal note to me with

665
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 7: President Trump. So I wanted to share that with you

666
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:18,719
Speaker 7: and our country. Our country is being returned to law

667
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 7: and order. That's right.

668
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 10: Under the last administration, the scales had fallen off, it

669
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 10: was completely tipped the wrong way. And this administration is

670
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 10: dedicated to removing the real criminals, which are the cartels.

671
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,480
Speaker 10: These are terrorists that came across our border. Terrorists came

672
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 10: across our border are here within the United States. I

673
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 10: had a great meeting with Homeland Security yesterday in my

674
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 10: office in Dalton, and I can't tell you I was

675
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 10: overjoyed at what he was telling me is happening.

676
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 2: Now.

677
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 10: You're not seeing this on the news, but I wish

678
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,320
Speaker 10: you were, and maybe we will see more of it.

679
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 10: But because of Secretary Noman, Tom Homan's incredible work and

680
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 10: all the people that are working with them, there's a

681
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 10: completely different approach. He told me, These agencies are working

682
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 10: together like he's never seen before in over decades of

683
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:21,240
Speaker 10: his career. FBI, atf Border Patrol, Ice, and many local

684
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 10: law enforcement all the way from city, county and states

685
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:29,439
Speaker 10: all across the country are working together to track down

686
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 10: illegal alien criminals, cartels, and terrorists that are not just

687
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 10: living at the border. Ladies and gentlemen, they're all inside

688
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 10: the interior of the United States, all inside the interior

689
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:47,840
Speaker 10: of the United States.

Speaker 10: an area for protest outside and.

695

Speaker 10: I'd rather take your questions. And they gave me a

721
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 10: full list here of the questions that we've got, so

722
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 10: we'll go ahead and start.

723
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:14,040
Speaker 4: With the first one.

724
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:20,479
Speaker 10: How can we stop rogue judges? That's a very important question.

725
00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 10: We just passed a bill in the House that addresses

726
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 10: this very issue and reigns in rogue judges from being

727
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 10: able to completely undo the will of the American people. Now,

728
00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:38,520
Speaker 10: when President you, the American people elected President Trump, and

729
00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 10: he is following through on the agenda that he promised

730
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 10: to you. But when a single judge comes in and

731
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 10: uses the power of his bench and rules against the

732
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:53,880
Speaker 10: president's agenda, he's ruling against the American people. And so

733
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,280
Speaker 10: we've passed that bill in the House to stop judges

734
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 10: from doing that, and we look forward to seeing it

735
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 10: go through the Senate and making it to.

736
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 7: President Trump's desk.

737
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 10: This is a good question, Cindy, Well, members of Congress

738
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 10: who took taxpayer dollars through NGOs and other illegal means

739
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 10: be held accountable in charge with their crimes. I think

740
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 10: NGOs are so interesting. As a matter of fact, my

741
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,840
Speaker 10: team on the Doge Committee and the Oversight Staff, we

742
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:33,360
Speaker 10: are heavily investigating NGOs and I'll be holding a hearing

743
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,879
Speaker 10: on our investigation into NGOs and look forward to having

744
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 10: some great witnesses that come before us.

745
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:41,120
Speaker 7: Now.

746
00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,440
Speaker 10: If there is true evidence of members of Congress or

747
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 10: their family receiving money directly from NGOs, I look forward

748
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 10: to sending criminal referrals.

749
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:59,839
Speaker 7: To the Department of Justice. Great question.

750
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 10: When will we start seeing voting on legislation to support

751
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 10: President Trump's executive.

752
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,440
Speaker 7: Orders or even thank you for that question. I can

753
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 7: tell you not soon enough.

754
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 10: I wish we were passing them every single week. That's

755
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:17,239
Speaker 10: something that I've expressed to our leadership is we want

756
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 10: to see those bills coming.

757
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 4: But I have some really good news for you.

758
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 10: I have several bills that actually are President Trump's executive orders.

759
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 10: One of them is the Gulf of America Act, and

760
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 10: that'll be coming to the House floor actually really soon,

761
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 10: so we're looking forward to that. Protect Children's Innocence Act

762
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 10: is another one of President Trump's executive orders. He's serious

763
00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,840
Speaker 10: about protecting children from the transagenda.

764
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 7: We also have one more.

765
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 10: Before I get to the next question, is we have

766
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 10: the make English the official language of the United States.

767
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 10: So no brainer. Over one hundred and seventy countries around

768
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 10: the world have an official language. America should have one too,

769
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 10: and that's English.

770
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 7: Okay, Oh yeah.

771
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 10: Why is MTG supporting Musk and Doge in the slashing

772
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 10: of medicaid, social security offices, libraries, and more. This is

773
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 10: outrageous from Sarah. Well, Sarah, unfortunately, you're being brainwashed by

774
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:28,680
Speaker 10: the news that you're watching. And you know, a lot

775
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:32,200
Speaker 10: of Democrats pride themselves on being educated, and I suggest

776
00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 10: they educate themselves better.

777
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,760
Speaker 7: Because I showed you a video in the beginning.

778
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 10: I wish you could have seen the whole clip of

779
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 10: Barack Obama literally talking about what we call today Doge.

780
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 10: And so, Sarah, if you supported Barack Obama as your president,

781
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 10: which I'm sure you did, then i'm sure you support

782
00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 10: Elon Muskin Doge as well. Now, as far as Medicaid,

783
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 10: social Security live reason more. What we're doing is we're

784
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,880
Speaker 10: removing waste, fraud, and abuse. And there's nothing more important

785
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 10: we can do for you as Americans to protect your

786
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 10: social security than get rid of the criminals that are

787
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 10: stealing it.

788
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,800
Speaker 7: We have to make sure that we protect social security.

789
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 10: We're not cutting social Security, We're not cutting Medicare. This

790
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,840
Speaker 10: was a promise from President Trump and Republicans like myself

791
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,400
Speaker 10: on the campaign trail, and we will live up to

792
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 10: that promise and no one has lost their benefits. Okay,

793
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 10: when is the House going to get the tax cuts

794
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 10: bill finished so the Senate can pass it too so

795
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 10: President Trump can sign it. This is more important than

796
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 10: any other issue at this time. Thank you, Melanie. Melanie,

797
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 10: I fully agree with you. I think we've got to

798
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 10: get the tax bill and the law passed as soon

799
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 10: as possible. So before Congress, I was a business owner,

800
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 10: and that was This is my fifth year in Congress

801
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,280
Speaker 10: that I just started, so that was just a little

802
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 10: more than four years ago. Business owners, regular Americans are

803
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,919
Speaker 10: not able to plan until we have a tax law

804
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 10: that they know they can count on and they know

805
00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 10: is not going to change on them. So Congress, We're

806
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 10: supposed to be working on that tax law in May,

807
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 10: and I look forward to getting that done.

808
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 7: As soon as past possible.

809
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 10: I also stand by President Trump's campaign promises of no

810
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 10: tax on tips, no tax on Social Security, and.

811
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 7: No tax on overtime.

812
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 4: I'm also a co.

813
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 10: Sponsor of the Fair Tax, So if it were up

814
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 10: to me, I would really put that tax law in

815
00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,160
Speaker 10: the paper shredder.

816
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,960
Speaker 7: All right, let's see what do we have now.

817
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,239
Speaker 10: How is Congress working to make DOGE cuts permanent? From

818
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 10: Rich we will be doing that mostly in our reconciliation bill,

819
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 10: and a lot of that will happen in the months

820
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,320
Speaker 10: of May. Hopefully we get that done quickly. That is

821
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:05,480
Speaker 10: also going to be about border energy and the tax law.

822
00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,360
Speaker 10: As the chair of DOAGE Committee, I can tell you guys, I.

823
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 7: Want all the DOGE cuts permanent.

824
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 10: I want to save you as much money as possible

825
00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,600
Speaker 10: and reduce the scope and size of the federal government.

826
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 7: And on that note, I have to give.

827
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 10: President Trump a lot of credit. He, more than anyone else,

828
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:26,280
Speaker 10: is reducing the size and scope of the federal government,

829
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 10: and so.

830
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 7: This is a really good thing. What plan do you

831
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 7: have to continue to grow.

832
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 10: The MAGA movement after Trump from Marcus Well, Marcus, you

833
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 10: know what I think MAGA is. MAGA is already on

834
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 10: its way. It's not anything I have to do. MAGA

835
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,760
Speaker 10: proved that this movement is not only just a movement,

836
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 10: it is the American people, because the American people overwhelmingly

837
00:44:55,160 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 10: voted for MAGA in November of twenty twenty four. Exactly

838
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 10: what the American people voted for. So I'd say it's

839
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 10: up to the American people to make sure we keep

840
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:13,080
Speaker 10: it going. Do you think that President Trump will lose

841
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 10: support from voters who are not willing to wait and

842
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,320
Speaker 10: see the end results of the tariffs?

843
00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 7: In other words, we know that the tariffs will.

844
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 10: Give him bargaining power and in the end more business

845
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 10: and jobs back in America.

846
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:29,680
Speaker 7: But some seem to be frightened of his aggressive moves. Sandra, Sandra,

847
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 7: that's a very good thought. But I'm going to tell

848
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,839
Speaker 7: you right now, don't be a pannikin. That's a new

849
00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 7: word President Trump came up with.

850
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 10: You See, Look, it took us decades to get here,

851
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 10: decades to get the thirty six trillion dollars in debt.

852
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 10: It took decades for our factories to get shut down

853
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 10: and our jobs sent overseas. It took decades for us

854
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 10: to all fall into this terrible It's basically a grave

855
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 10: that America has been put in and dug by our

856
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 10: federal government. So I support President Trump so much. And

857
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 10: you know what, we've seen it up against China. That

858
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,840
Speaker 10: is exactly who he's standing up against.

859
00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:17,920
Speaker 7: China has stolen our intellectual property.

860
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 10: China has stolen so much of our trade. China has

861
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 10: spied on the United States and Americans, and President Trump

862
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 10: is standing up for us in American companies and he's

863
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 10: stopping it.

864
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:32,240
Speaker 7: I don't know about you, guys.

865
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 10: I don't want a war with China, but we can

866
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,160
Speaker 10: beat him economically, and that's exactly what President Trump's doing.

867
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 10: Do you see an even role role for DOGE at

868
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 10: the federal and state level?

869
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:54,280
Speaker 7: Larry, absolutely. I think reducing waste, fraud and abuse should

870
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 7: be in every part of government. Yeah, it should, and

871
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 7: I encourage you all to push to make that happen.

872
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:03,720
Speaker 7: And I think it is happening in Georgia.

873
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:10,240
Speaker 10: I've heard there's over seventy counties that are creating DOGE groups,

874
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 10: So I think it's already on its way. What are

875
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,120
Speaker 10: you doing to reduce national debt, not just slow its growth?

876
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 10: Patricia him Patrician, This is a great question. So reducing

877
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 10: our national debt is going to happen in multiple ways.

878
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 10: Here's how it's working. President Trump is growing our economy.

879
00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:33,080
Speaker 10: I think he has around seven trillion dollars of commitments

880
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 10: from companies that are bringing that money seven trillion dollars

881
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 10: into our economy by bringing their companies here, manufacturing and

882
00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 10: creating jobs. Another way that we can do that is,

883
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 10: of course, reduce the size and scope of the federal government.

884
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 10: President Trump is already starting that by getting rid of

885
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 10: the Department of Education, getting rid of Usaid, NPR, PBS,

886
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:04,160
Speaker 10: and many other waste and fraud. He's also cutting contracts,

887
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 10: useless contracts, things that you all would never pay for

888
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 10: yourself if you knew what they were, and also stopping

889
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:15,760
Speaker 10: ridiculous grants, grants funding things that we should never fund,

890
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 10: not just here in America but in countries all over

891
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:19,280
Speaker 10: the world.

892
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 7: So that's a part of reducing the spending.

893
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 10: But it's very important not only to reduce spending, but

894
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 10: to grow our economy.

895
00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 7: And that's how we can reign in national debt.

896
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 10: What are you doing to protect us in the fourteenth

897
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 10: District from the damage and extreme hardship of Trump's tarrace,

898
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:49,800
Speaker 10: gutting of social Security and medicaid doage, gutting our government

899
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 10: with a chainsaw approach, and the utter destruction at ignoring

900
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 10: of our constitution and rule of law.

901
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 7: He is not well physically or mentally. He's making nonsensical

902
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 7: orders based on his whim of the day. How are

903
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,200
Speaker 7: you going to rain him in to protect us?

904
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:09,879
Speaker 10: Oh?

905
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 7: Poor Christina, Poor poor Christina.

906
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 10: Well, I'm sure, Christina, you think that you're pretty smart,

907
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 10: but the reality is you are being completely brainwashed by

908
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,759
Speaker 10: whatever source of news you listen to. The facts are this,

909
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,279
Speaker 10: No one has lost their Social security, No one has

910
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:31,320
Speaker 10: lost their benefits.

911
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:32,799
Speaker 7: Criminals have lost.

912
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:38,759
Speaker 10: It, yes, fraudsters have lost it, yes, and illegal aliens

913
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 10: have lost it.

914
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:40,239
Speaker 4: Yep.

915
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 10: And if you want to defend those people where you

916
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 10: hate our country and you hate America, what am I

917
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 10: going to do.

918
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 7: I am going to stand by my president.

919
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 10: I am going to support my president, and I am

920
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 10: going to fight for his agenda with.

921
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 7: Everything I have in Congress.

922
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:58,520
Speaker 4: And That's what I'm going to do.

923
00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:01,320
Speaker 10: For the fourteenth District Because I know for a fact,

924
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 10: you are going to have more money in your pocket,

925
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 10: You're going to have more jobs available, you're going to

926
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 10: have a stronger economy, and you're.

927
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 7: Going to have safe cities and communities.

928
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,759
Speaker 10: To live in, and you'll be safe from terrorists, cartels,

929
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:15,759
Speaker 10: and criminals.

930
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:17,800
Speaker 7: And God bless President Trump for that.

931
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 15: Will tracks pledged for no income tax on Social Security

932
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,839
Speaker 15: be part of the final reconciliation bill this year.

933
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,280
Speaker 10: I think that John, I think this is extremely important.

934
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 10: Your money in Social Security has already been taxed.

935
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,440
Speaker 7: It should have never been taxed.

936
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 10: I don't know how we got in this place, but

937
00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:49,799
Speaker 10: it must be undone. Senior citizens have suffered more than

938
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:53,560
Speaker 10: any group that I talked to. It's been tragic and

939
00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,439
Speaker 10: heartbreaking talking to many seniors over the past four years

940
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 10: because many of them I talked to could hardly pay

941
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 10: their rent, had to choose between medication and groceries. Told

942
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 10: me how they couldn't afford to buy gifts for their

943
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 10: grandchildren because they had to figure out how to afford

944
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 10: to pay rent and how to figure out how to live.

945
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:14,000
Speaker 12: This is a.

946
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,799
Speaker 10: Tragedy, and because of inflation brought on this country from

947
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 10: the Biden administration and I'll add onto this reckless spending

948
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:26,440
Speaker 10: for decades by both Republicans and Democrats.

949
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:27,879
Speaker 4: I'm going to say both.

950
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,040
Speaker 10: Inflation has gotten to a point where life is unaffordable

951
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:38,000
Speaker 10: and people's social security is hardly a drop in the bucket.

952
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,600
Speaker 7: And it shouldn't ever be that way. It shouldn't be

953
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 7: that way.

954
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,399
Speaker 10: When can arrest start being made for elected politicians who

955
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 10: have committed acts of treason? Glinda, how your people are

956
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:59,840
Speaker 10: ready to round them up? Well, sadly, they don't let

957
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:00,880
Speaker 10: you arrest anybody.

958
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 7: Guys.

959
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 10: I just have a voting card, and I can do legislation,

960
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,759
Speaker 10: and I can hold hearings. Members of Congress, we don't

961
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 10: have that power, but our Department of Justice does. And

962
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:20,000
Speaker 10: if there is evidence of politicians or anyone committing such crimes,

963
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 10: then I'm sure that President Trump's Department of Justice will

964
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 10: follow through. What can Congress do to reign in the

965
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 10: hate and lies other elected officials are spewing that endanger

966
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 10: the lives of innocent people.

967
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 4: Rep.

968
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 7: Crockett is one example.

969
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 10: Those inciting the vandalism and domestic terrorism against Tesla and

970
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,240
Speaker 10: Tesla owners are another example.

971
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 7: Kathleen.

972
00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:47,640
Speaker 10: Kathleen, thank you for that question and I first want

973
00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:51,320
Speaker 10: to start with recognizing Governor Shapiro and his family and

974
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 10: say that I truly pray for them, and it was

975
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 10: shocking to see that attack of arson on the Governor's mansion,

976
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:03,720
Speaker 10: and I completely denounce that type of political violence.

977
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 7: I denounce all political violence.

978
00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:06,839
Speaker 9: Now.

979
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 10: I can tell you that because I also live in

980
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 10: a place where I am one of the members of

981
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:17,440
Speaker 10: Congress that usually has the highest amount of death threats.

982
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:23,239
Speaker 10: As a matter of fact, as a matter of fact,

983
00:53:25,239 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 10: there's an active death threat that Capitol Police have been

984
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 10: dealing with on me. This is a routine thing that happens,

985
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:34,280
Speaker 10: and Capitol Police does a great job, so does the FBI,

986
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 10: and so does.

987
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 7: All of my local law enforcement. I'm very thankful for them.

988
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 8: Now.

989
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:49,759
Speaker 10: So I can't control anyone else that I serve with

990
00:53:49,920 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 10: in Congress, but I can tell you my stances is

991
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,640
Speaker 10: no one should be calling and threatening our staff. I

992
00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 10: don't care Democrats or Republicans and should be cussing at them,

993
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:03,520
Speaker 10: telling them they're going to kill them.

994
00:54:03,560 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 7: Because my staff gets death threats too.

995
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:10,279
Speaker 10: The same, you know, and when I get them, and

996
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 10: that just shouldn't happen. And again I'll just say this,

997
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 10: we have bigger problems in America. We really do, problems

998
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 10: that should bring us together as Americans and not divide

999
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,600
Speaker 10: us to the point where they're talking about killing people.

1000
00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,399
Speaker 10: Let's just remember this that it has not been a year.

1001
00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:32,799
Speaker 10: It hasn't been a year since President Trump was shot

1002
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 10: in Butler, Pennsylvania, almost almost assassinated on the world stage

1003
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 10: for everyone to see. Hasn't even been a year, I

1004
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 10: would hope. And you know, here's here's another thing that

1005
00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,640
Speaker 10: I can't let go is the poll that I saw

1006
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 10: where over half of Democrats support assassinating President Trump.

1007
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,360
Speaker 7: That is that is absolutely discussing and shameful.

1008
00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 10: And if it was, if it doesn't matter who president is,

1009
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,240
Speaker 10: no one should support assassinating the president.

1010
00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:09,320
Speaker 7: You know what you do. You vote, you want to

1011
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,799
Speaker 7: change your leaders, you vote, and that's how America should

1012
00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 7: handle it.

1013
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 10: Why do you support a president adding the largest tax

1014
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 10: on people ever through executive orders with tariffs?

1015
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 7: Samara, Samara.

1016
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:32,000
Speaker 10: Inflation is coming down, gas is coming down, airline tickets

1017
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,520
Speaker 10: are coming down, your energy costs are coming down. The

1018
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,840
Speaker 10: price of eggs are coming down because Democrats are not

1019
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:38,240
Speaker 10: killing them all over the country.

1020
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,440
Speaker 7: The reality is tariffs are not a.

1021
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:45,239
Speaker 10: Massive tax on the American people. The tax on the

1022
00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 10: American people that you've been suffering with is the inflation

1023
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,560
Speaker 10: that Biden and the Democrats put on the American people

1024
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:56,600
Speaker 10: from their absolute reckless spending for the past four years.

1025
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,279
Speaker 10: How do those Congress plan to get rid of her

1026
00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,440
Speaker 10: climbing debt in a practical way, Kathleen.

1027
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 7: Another great question.

1028
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:11,840
Speaker 10: Well, we've been discussing that Doge cuts, cutting spending, growing

1029
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 10: our economy, and guys, this isn't going to happen in

1030
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 10: two years, and this isn't going to happen in four years,

1031
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 10: probably not six years. I think this has to be

1032
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:25,919
Speaker 10: steady work by every single Congress and every single administration.

1033
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 10: And here's what I'm counting on you, all the American people,

1034
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 10: to make sure that not only myself, but all leaders

1035
00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:39,120
Speaker 10: know that this is a top issue for you and

1036
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:45,400
Speaker 10: hold us accountable for that. Does Representative Green in Texas

1037
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 10: Algreen even understand how impeachment works. I watch the Democratic

1038
00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 10: Congress members spouting rhetoric all weekend about Trump's economy, Yet

1039
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:01,320
Speaker 10: these same people voted for the Inflation Reduction Act and

1040
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:05,319
Speaker 10: the Green New Deal scam, both contributed to an approximate

1041
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 10: sixteen to eighteen percent cumulative inflation under Biden.

1042
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 7: How do we get this message out?

1043
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 4: Ruth?

1044
00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 7: You just did it. You know, I think your question

1045
00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 7: speaks for itself.

1046
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:18,960
Speaker 4: Thank you for that.

1047
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,439
Speaker 10: There's going to be a lot of chaos and short

1048
00:57:23,560 --> 00:57:25,600
Speaker 10: term pain with these new initiatives.

1049
00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 7: How do we navigate them for the next election?

1050
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 10: Gary, I think this is something that the American people

1051
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 10: understand better than anybody.

1052
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:36,880
Speaker 7: You know, working in Washington, DC is like going to

1053
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,040
Speaker 7: a foreign country. It's like a bubble.

1054
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:43,280
Speaker 10: But when you come out to America, everybody understands this

1055
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:46,520
Speaker 10: that you know, when your household is in debt, your

1056
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 10: credit cards are maxed out.

1057
00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:50,720
Speaker 7: You have to let go of the fun things you

1058
00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,919
Speaker 7: like to spend money on. For me, I'm like, dang,
