1 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Let's talk tariffs with Ross Kennedy. Let's talk spending cuts 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: with Chip Roy. Michael Malice joins us to make fun 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,160 Speaker 1: of the media. We have such a great show coming 4 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: up tonight, and I'm right all right before we get 5 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: to tariff talk with Ross Kennedy. Here, in just a moment, 6 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: I wanted to do something we try to do every 7 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: time we find out about it on the show. We 8 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:36,440 Speaker 1: honor the fallen who died during training. They are the 9 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: forgotten heroes of our time. We lost the United States 10 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 1: Marine mister Sergeant Jacob M. Durham died working with the Filipinos. 11 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: It's it was a crash. It happens. It's a dangerous profession. 12 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: The training itself is dangerous. And you know that young man, 13 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: Sergeant Durham gave his life for his country, no different 14 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: than the guy who charges up a hill. He gave 15 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: his life for his country. It's to simplify my brother 16 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: in prayers for his family. Now, tariffs, We're gonna be 17 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 1: talking a lot about tariffs in the coming years. I 18 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,320 Speaker 1: would imagine Trump came out had this say. 19 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: Reciprocal tariffs, and very simply, it's if they charge us, 20 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: we charge them. That's all in fact almost immediately, but 21 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: I'll be announcing the details of it, highly detailed, and 22 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 2: it'll be great for everybody, including the other countries. But 23 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: if they are charging us one hundred and thirty percent 24 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 2: and we're charging them nothing, it's not going to say 25 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: that it won't affect everybody because there's somewhere we have 26 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: similar tariffs. But the ones that are taking advantage of 27 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 2: the United States, we're going to have a It's reciprocity. 28 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: It's reciprocal. 29 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 3: I love this. 30 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: What I love the most is not necessarily the terriffs themselves. 31 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 1: I love that we're having conversations about tariff's economies, free markets, trade, 32 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: supply chains, things that Americans need to know about and 33 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: need to think about more than we have in the past. 34 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: Joining me now is somebody who knows a lot about 35 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: such things, my friend Ross Kennedy, founder of Fortist Analysis, 36 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: supply chain Expert, among other things. Okay, Ross, tariffs are 37 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: nothing new, and Donald Trump is very much a Teddy 38 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: Roosevelt Republican type. They come, they go. Many of us 39 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: were raised on pure free markets. 40 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 3: Many love tariffs. 41 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: Where this Ross Kennedy fall As far as the strategy goes. 42 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 3: Well. 43 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 4: I think this continues a pattern that we've seen you 44 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 4: literally from day one of the administration, where the threat 45 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 4: of tariffs, that the imposition of them is designed to 46 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 4: be a way to bring our trade relationships back and balance, 47 00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 4: where historically the United States has been a massive demand driver, 48 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 4: and so anybody that gets to do business with US, 49 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 4: particularly countries that have free trade agreements or multilateral free 50 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 4: trade agreements, so Mexico and Canada obviously towards the very 51 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 4: top of that list as regards. 52 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: Steel and aluminum. 53 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 4: It's really about rebalancing and kind of reweighing the scales. 54 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: But the reason it works with President Trump, the reason 55 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 4: and maybe wouldn't have worked historically, you know, particularly with 56 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 4: President Obama, President Biden, whoever it may be, is that 57 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 4: they believe and rightfully so. The President Trump is very, 58 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,399 Speaker 4: very very serious about this. He has made no secret 59 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 4: of the agenda to reshore to the extent that reshoring, 60 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 4: you know, maybe can't happen fast enough to use ally 61 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 4: shoring or friend shoring, particularly in the Western hemisphere for 62 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 4: a lot of these critical materials, components, parts, electronics, chips, 63 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 4: all of these things, and so we're seeing more of 64 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: the same of that here with the steel and aluminum tariffs. 65 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: Okay, let's get into those steel in alluminum tariffs. Why 66 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: how do we allow critical materials like that to land 67 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: purely in the hands of China anyway? And what are 68 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: we doing? 69 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,839 Speaker 4: Well, you kind of have to break them out into 70 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 4: separate domains. Both, you know, do share the common thing 71 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 4: of they are extremely resource intensive, particularly from an infrastructure side, 72 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 4: A steel mill or an aluminum boundary uses a massive 73 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,119 Speaker 4: amount of energy, They use a massive amount of water, 74 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 4: they use a massive amount of electricity. So when you 75 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 4: take all of that into account, you know, and and 76 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 4: then on top of that, they're not exactly the most 77 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 4: environmentally friendly types of manufacturing and refining operations. So with 78 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 4: the rise of the EPA, with the rise of energy 79 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 4: prices and overregulation and it taking five six seven years 80 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 4: to kind of cut through all the red tape, it's 81 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 4: just not been as cheap or as as time sensitive 82 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 4: to be able to build or to continue to operate 83 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 4: steel and aluminum manufacturing operations in the United States. And 84 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 4: then you set aside the fact that a lot of 85 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: the materials that you need to actually produce this can 86 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 4: be procured pretty inexpensively, largely from countries like you know, 87 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 4: China or from Brazil that maybe don't have as many 88 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 4: environmental controls on it. And so this was really kind 89 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 4: of capitalism run amuck, so to speak, in the sense 90 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 4: of people forgot that these were critical sectors. That the 91 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 4: arsenal of democracy that we had in World War two 92 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 4: and the post World War two boom was not just 93 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 4: because we made physical things in the US. It's because 94 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 4: we made the materials that made the things in the US. 95 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 4: But we degraded that over time. We kind of believed 96 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 4: that nothing was ever going to, you know, come against 97 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 4: the United States's ability to dictate supply and demand for 98 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 4: a lot of these things, and so we lost that edge. 99 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 4: And so now where we're at is that you know, 100 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 4: our five biggest trade partners on steel. You have Canada, 101 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 4: you have Mexico, you have Brazil, you have South Korea, 102 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 4: and you have Japan. Really, Canada and Mexico have benefited 103 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 4: substantially and the most heavily from it. Brazil as of 104 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 4: right now is our number two steel partner, and that 105 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 4: is a country that has largely fallen under the sway 106 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 4: of China. In the last number of years, and so 107 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 4: what we're seeing is is that two of our five 108 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: key partners are on the wrong side of the world, 109 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 4: and they are absolutely essential allies and this will fall 110 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 4: hard on them as well. Both countries depend on steel 111 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 4: exports as major things, but Canada and Mexico really seem 112 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 4: to be the targets here, with Brazil as kind of 113 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 4: a secondary target. Which is the reminder that you guys 114 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 4: have benefited enormously from this trade relationship with the US. 115 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 4: And just like we've seen specifically, you know, tariff supplied 116 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 4: on the two you know, USMCA, formerly NAFTA countries, this 117 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 4: is more of the same. But when we talk about aluminum, 118 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 4: which is really the interesting one, it's that box side 119 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 4: is the critical mineral that produces you know sometimes it's 120 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 4: called you know, aluminum war is what you see it as. 121 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 4: But when you produce, when you take box site and 122 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 4: you refine it, it doesn't go straight into aluminum. It 123 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 4: goes into an intermediate material called alumina. And then alumina 124 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 4: is what then gets alloyed to make aluminum. But when 125 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 4: you make alumina, something drops out in that process about 126 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 4: ten percent by weight, and that's gallium. Gallium was one 127 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 4: of the very first two of the critical minerals that 128 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 4: China cut off to the US, alongside germanium last year 129 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: or the year before. I forget now, but when we 130 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 4: were going through another round of export controls, the first 131 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 4: thing they hit were gallium and germanium. Because without gallium 132 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 4: and germanium and then a few other things like antimony 133 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,559 Speaker 4: and graphene, you don't have space age electronics, you don't 134 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 4: have bleeding edge missile systems, you don't have F thirty fives, 135 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 4: you don't have the guts of what makes our defense 136 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 4: industry so overwhelmingly powerful from a manufacturing side, because we 137 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 4: don't make a lot of those. But aluminum in particular 138 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 4: is critically important. Not only is a building material and 139 00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 4: as a critical infrastructure material were restoring and rebuilding the US, 140 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 4: we're also losing out on all that gallleum, and China 141 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 4: has completely cornered the global market on that particular critical mineral, 142 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 4: and really the only way to get to it cost 143 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: effectively is by refining box site into alumina and turning 144 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 4: illumina into aluminum. 145 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: A lot of people don't know I'm an expert on 146 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,520 Speaker 1: this stuff too, And if you keep heating up all 147 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: that stuff. It turns into the illuminati. Just so everybody knows. Okay, Ross, 148 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: let's talk about the Yeah, yeah, I I I knew 149 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: you were on the same page. 150 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: There. 151 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: The EPA is still there, ross the regulations, the red tape, 152 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: it's all still there. My question to you is, Okay, 153 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: it's fine, you Goetna hammer China. You want to be 154 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: treated more fairly on all this stuff, that's fine, But 155 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: we haven't. We haven't significantly cut through the red tape, 156 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: the regulation. The processes here are still just as complicated 157 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: and horrible as they were before. Yeah, Donald Trump's gonna 158 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: trim that down, but it might have another Democrat in 159 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: four years. 160 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,959 Speaker 3: It's just gonna ramp it right back. So what does 161 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 3: this all mean for the consumer? 162 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 4: Well, for right now, you know, if you're looking at 163 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 4: having a steel frame building, for example, tariffs might make 164 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 4: it a little. 165 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 3: Bit more expensive in the short run. 166 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: But we don't even know that these tariffs are actually 167 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 4: going to have any impact yet. An awful lot of 168 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 4: the threat and tariffs have been walked back as just 169 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 4: the threat alone has been enough to secure some form 170 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 4: of cooperation on other issues. So when you look at it, 171 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 4: even on a short term impact, I think that a 172 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 4: lot of people have kind of already figured the game 173 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 4: out and they're going to sit back and they're going 174 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 4: to wait and see a little bit. Now in the 175 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 4: market side, you have seen it be bullish for US manufacturers. 176 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 4: You saw new Core and Steel Dynamics and US Steel. 177 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,680 Speaker 4: You saw you know, trades up big on these announcements 178 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 4: because a lot of these companies are not going to 179 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 4: pay the twenty five percent additional plus what maybe looked 180 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 4: at on countervailing duties and anti dumping duties that could 181 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 4: be coming down the line. 182 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 3: So it is good for US producers. 183 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 4: A pressure campaign from the President would be pretty simple 184 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 4: to say, guys, don't get out over your skis here. 185 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 4: Don't immediately start charging buyers and consumers a lot more 186 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 4: for this just because you think you can. We're going 187 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 4: to be having some level of oversight on that long 188 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 4: term when you see the announced US Sovereign Fund, when 189 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 4: you see some of the other announcements or hinting at 190 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 4: announcements as far as cutting the regulatory process and review 191 00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 4: process down to thirty sixty ninety days for multiple years, 192 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 4: when you're starting to see very very pro business pro reshoring, 193 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 4: individuals coming in to lead these regulatory agencies. The signaling 194 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 4: of all of that will have a mitigating impact as well. 195 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 4: So this is really I think a lot of a 196 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: shaping operation, so to speak, to getting the environment right 197 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 4: to begin reshoring and to begin building at scale again 198 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 4: in the US. 199 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 3: Time will tail. 200 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 4: You may see for a bit of price taking, if 201 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 4: you will, from the market where they have to kind 202 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 4: of take higher prices in the very very short term. 203 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 4: But over when you look out over six months, twelve months, 204 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 4: twenty four months, I think that you will see the 205 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: net impact of this to be extremely positive. 206 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: Ross, my brother, thank you so much. I appreciate it. 207 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 3: Come back soon, Thank you, Jesse.

Well, Michael, 237 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 5: the way you put it is the way I hope 238 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:13,559 Speaker 5: folks considering your poll today will think about it. This 239 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 5: isn't just funding a kid show for children, millions of 240 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 5: children in countries like Iraq. It's a show that helps 241 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 5: teach values, helps teach public health, helps prevent kids from 242 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:32,479 Speaker 5: dying from dysentery and disease, and helps push values like collaboration, peacefulness, 243 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 5: cooperation in a society where the alternative is isis extremism 244 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 5: and terrorism.

Joining me now, 251 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: Congressman Chip War from the Great State of Texas, Chip, 252 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 1: you have to be absolutely loving this right now. Imagine 253 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: having to go on television and actually defend that kind 254 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: of slow No one supports this, nobody. 255 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I had At first I thought that 256 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 6: was parody. I heard it, and I thought that was somehow, 257 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 6: somehow a joke or something that somebody was on there 258 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 6: trying to defend that. 259 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 3: But that's what we're dealing with. And at least in 260 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: that case it was a Democrat. 261 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 6: All too often it's my Republican colleagues who, you know, unfortunately, 262 00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 6: a lot of us were offering amendments to stripting these 263 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 6: things out over the last several years. You'll remember during 264 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 6: the Speaker's debate a couple of years ago, one of 265 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 6: the key things we fought for was the ability to 266 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 6: offer lots of amendments, particularly amendments to cut spending. Well, 267 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 6: we did that, and we offered amendments. For example, Eli 268 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 6: Crane offered one to cut usaid USAID by fifty percent, 269 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 6: and unfortunately, one hundred and fourteen of my Republican colleagues. 270 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 3: Voted against that amendment. And I'm not here to look. 271 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 6: We've got to go bet the Democrats and Republicans are 272 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 6: united right now generally to do that. But you're seeing 273 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 6: the consequence of years of the establishment that we're opposing 274 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 6: those of us trying to highlight all of these things. 275 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 6: I offered amendments to strip unrun United Nations, you know, 276 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 6: nonsense sending money to the Gaza and the Palestinians and 277 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 6: Hamas and they were funding our enemies, so, you know, 278 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 6: funding the United Nations generally, the World Health Organization, all 279 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 6: things that we should be defunding, and we had trouble 280 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 6: getting our Republican colleagues to agree. I think Elon and 281 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 6: Doge and the President are going to start changing some minds. 282 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 3: I hope. 283 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: Can you give me the why on that for the 284 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: establishment Republicans? 285 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 3: And this is what I mean by that. 286 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: It's not hard to figure out why some filthy communist 287 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: activists would get a job at USA and go teach 288 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: child trainees in the Philippines how to put a condom on? 289 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: But why would establishment Republicans? What do they get out 290 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: of any of this stuff? How do they get out 291 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 1: of funding the World Health Organization? 292 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 3: Why? 293 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 6: Well, there's two or three things going on. Let me 294 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 6: give you a legitimate defense of my colleagues broadly, which 295 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 6: is a lack of staffing in Congress relative to the 296 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 6: executive branch. 297 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,239 Speaker 3: We are overwhelmed thousands to one. 298 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 6: Right, I only have about six or seven staff here 299 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 6: that are dedicated to policy and communications, and I just 300 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 6: lost several of them to the administration. So it's hard 301 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 6: for us to keep up with all the stuff and 302 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 6: we have to go track all of this stuff while 303 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 6: everything's incoming. But now let me give you the more 304 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 6: cynical view, which is too many of my Republican colleagues 305 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 6: have never met a spending program that they didn't like 306 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 6: because they view it as a way to basically buy votes, 307 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 6: particularly when your leadership is solely focused on so called 308 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 6: majority makers, that is the more moderate ends of the 309 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 6: conference saying well, if we don't win those seats, then 310 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 6: we won't have the majority. 311 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: Now let me just take you back. 312 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 6: You remember I ran against When Davis and around Austin, 313 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 6: Texas in twenty twenty. Well, I was pretty unabashedly outspokenly 314 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 6: conservative in an R plus four district that is a 315 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 6: marginal district. Yet I found a way to increase that 316 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 6: majority win and actually out before most of my colleagues, 317 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 6: and I won that seat with seven point margin. 318 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,160 Speaker 3: But it just took work. 319 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 6: I didn't hide from my views, I didn't hide from 320 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 6: my beliefs. I ran on what I call healthcare freedom. 321 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 6: I ran on cutting programs. I gave her so many 322 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 6: ads to run against me, and she ran them all. 323 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 6: But you know what, go out and convince your voters. 324 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:37,680 Speaker 6: So anyway, that's a long win way to say. I 325 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 6: think my colleagues say they like to cut spending. And 326 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 6: by the way, if I hear another Republican say that 327 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 6: they want to talk about the phrase we have a 328 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 6: revenue problem instead of a spending problem, I sit in 329 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 6: these meetings, all of my colleagues say that, yet all 330 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 6: for no efforts to actually cut spending. Those of us 331 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 6: that are trying to put fort efforts to cut spending, well, 332 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 6: they go, oh, guys, we can't do that. Well, we 333 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 6: can't touch medicaid, we can't go touch Oh but okay, 334 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 6: Joe Biden expanded food stamps. We didn't support it, but 335 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 6: now that'd be really hard to cut. Yeah, we don't 336 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 6: like the Green New Deal. But I need my free 337 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 6: money for my corn States. I need my free money 338 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 6: for my well in gas companies in Houston. 339 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 3: Whatever it is. Our guys need to just say, there's 340 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 3: no more room in the end. 341 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 6: You don't get any more grants, you don't get any 342 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 6: more subsidies. We're going to stop this spending and we're 343 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 6: going to clean up the government. But you know, you've 344 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 6: got to have leadership, and God bless Elon and the 345 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 6: President for providing some of that leadership right now. 346 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 1: Chip real quick handicap this spending bill that's coming. I 347 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: know you're all over this thing trying to hammer out 348 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: some sort of a decent bill. 349 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 3: We rarely win. 350 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: In fact, I take that back, we never win these things. 351 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 3: Are we going to win this one? Well? 352 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 7: I hope. 353 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 6: So we had a really good meeting in the White 354 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 6: House last week. And I don't tend to be one 355 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 6: that divulges contents at private meetings, but a lot of 356 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,399 Speaker 6: it's been reported, and we were doing, I think, the 357 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 6: really hard work of trying to force the conversation about 358 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 6: what we need to do on the tax front and 359 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 6: the spending front. Now, you and I and most of 360 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 6: the conservatives I know would abolish most or all of 361 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 6: the tax code. 362 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 3: You know, we'd go back to something. 363 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 6: I appreciate what the President wants to do in terms 364 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 6: of external collection with tariffs, but you need to make 365 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 6: sure that you're not taxing people too much on the 366 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 6: inside right into our revenue service and our income tax 367 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 6: code and all the complexities of the tax code. 368 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,440 Speaker 3: Cut it, abolish it, get rid of it. Comma. 369 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 6: However, every Republican I know is totally fine running on 370 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 6: spend on tax cuts, but refuse to do any of 371 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 6: the spending cuts side. So what I'm saying is, guys, 372 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 6: I want your tax cuts. I want to actually raise you. 373 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 6: I'll see your five trillion dollars in tax cuts and 374 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 6: how I'll give you seven or eight. But you got 375 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 6: to give me at least a certain amount of cuts. 376 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 6: We believe we need to get at least two and 377 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,919 Speaker 6: a half trillion dollars of cuts over ten years. 378 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,200 Speaker 3: Now, Jesse, let me be very clear about what I mean. 379 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 6: That is only two hundred billion dollars a year out 380 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 6: of a seven trillion dollar total government spend. That's what 381 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 6: I'm asking my colleagues to give me his cuts as 382 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 6: a down payment on what we. 383 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 3: Need to do to going forward. And a lot of 384 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 3: them are saying we can't do that, that's too hard. 385 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 6: Well, and I'm telling them, guys, if you want your 386 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 6: tax cuts, then you're gonna give me your spending cuts. 387 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 6: And you know how they respond to that. They go 388 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 6: out to the press and they say chip Roy opposes 389 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 6: tax cuts. Not true, I oppose blank check just saying oh, 390 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 6: I'm gonna do tax cuts because I want to go 391 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 6: buy off my voters but I'm not going to do 392 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 6: the hard work of spending cuts. 393 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:41,400 Speaker 3: I'm going to keep fighting that fight, keep after them.

The host of your Welcome my 426 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: friend Michael Malice. Michael, I don't even care the subject 427 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: they were talking about. I just love watching corporate journalists 428 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 1: get bullied like losers. 429 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 3: I think it's fantastic. 430 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 9: Do you know what Trump did which was so brilliant 431 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 9: and what he picked up on which I don't think 432 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 9: a lot of people did. The guy said, your vice 433 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 9: president suggested blah blah blah blah blah. So he's asking 434 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 9: Trump to react to his interpretation of what JD. Van 435 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 9: said instead of saying your vice president said this, do 436 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 9: you agree? So this is how the game they play. 437 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 9: So I could say I go, somebody else to go. 438 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 9: Jesse Kelly made some comments that some people have described 439 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 9: as racially insensitive. What do you think? It's a gotcha game. 440 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 9: It's not reacting to what you actually said. It's characterizing 441 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 9: you in a certain way and pitting people against each 442 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 9: other in a very disingenious way. And I'm so glad 443 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 9: Trump's like, go after yourself like he and he knew 444 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 9: before he even kne who the guy was, the guys 445 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 9: whom are disruptive organization. 446 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 7: He didn't even he. 447 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 9: Wasn't even like He's like where are you at? Like 448 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 9: because he knows even NBC or CBS crap, Like he's like, 449 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:31,880 Speaker 9: where you where are you from? 450 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 3: I'm from. 451 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 7: It's a very New York thing, like where where are 452 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:35,400 Speaker 7: you from? How'd you get it here? 453 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: I have met a bunch of racially insensitive comments. It's 454 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: who I am anyway, So that's fine. I think everybody, 455 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: I think everyone accepts it at this point in time. Okay, Michael, 456 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,920 Speaker 1: how do these people see themselves? These filthy corporate journalist 457 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: types who were worthy of so much scorn? Are they 458 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 1: just are they just trying to earn a paycheck? 459 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 3: And they know he's got to ask that question. 460 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: He's gotta be a filthy little communist tack that he 461 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: genuinely think he's some kind of communist revolutionary. I still 462 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 1: can't figure these people out completely. 463 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 9: Well, I don't know how they look at themselves, because 464 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 9: they don't cast a reflection. But I don't think it's 465 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 9: as simple as them just like, oh, I have to 466 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 9: do this for the paycheck, because if that was the case, 467 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 9: someone else could give him more money and they could 468 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 9: do a better job. 469 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 3: Right. 470 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 9: So I don't think he thinks the commist revolutionary either. 471 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 9: I think they think correctly. You know, I'm a random 472 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 9: nobody with some degree from some secondary school. I'm antagonizing 473 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 9: the president of the United States. That's a pretty good 474 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:37,120 Speaker 9: gig for someone with very few qualities that are ragworthy. 475 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 9: But these gotcha games are over, and they've been over, 476 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 9: especially when you had you know, Officer Harris as the 477 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 9: last nominee and she couldn't answer, you know, the differ 478 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 9: between her right and her left. 479 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 7: So I think things are going in a much better direction. 480 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: Obviously, Michael Trump's clearing out these agencies well, trying to 481 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: obviously going to try to throw a monkey wrench in. 482 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 3: The gears as much as possible. 483 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: But what I'm sitting there this morning, and I'm reading 484 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: through all these articles about the FEMA payments in the 485 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,479 Speaker 1: US eight and all the crap that we've all been 486 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: talking about for a couple of weeks, and it really 487 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: hits me. 488 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 3: I'm genuinely impressed. 489 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: I hate these people, but I am so impressed how 490 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: they've spent decades just taking over every institution and turning 491 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: it into something that only works for them and works 492 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: against us. And we've just been blissfully unaware, just kind 493 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: of whistling past the graveyard as they took it all. 494 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 1: They took the Boy Scouts, and we were just doing 495 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: nothing about it. 496 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 7: I don't think we're whistling at all. 497 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 9: I think a lot of people were complaining with this 498 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 9: for a very long time, and Republicans in Washington do 499 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 9: crap about it. Or what would happened is when Obama's 500 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 9: building something, they would pitch a fit correctly, and then 501 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 9: as soon as Trump comes in, or as soon as 502 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 9: George W. Bush came in, they just left it standing. 503 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 9: They refuse to take back what their opponents had built. 504 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 9: And this is the first time in either of our lifetimes, Jesse, 505 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 9: where we're publican president is putting points on the board. 506 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 9: Instead of just playing defense, he's going on offense. And 507 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 9: everyone listening to this knows how demoralizing it is to 508 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 9: have things taken away. Let's suppose we walk into our house, Jesse, 509 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,919 Speaker 9: someone broke in and they just took I don't know, 510 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 9: like a like a loaf of bread. It's loaf of bread. 511 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 9: Who cares, But that sense of violation. Someone's been in 512 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 9: my home, something's been taken from me. It's morally disturbing. 513 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 9: So that is what's so great about what he's doing. 514 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 9: He's taking the fight to them. He's going to their 515 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 9: house and he's taking things that they regard as sakra 516 00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 9: saying LBJ level executive orders. I mean, this was not 517 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 9: on the table in twenty twenty four. So I am 518 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 9: giddy about what's going to happen next four years. And 519 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 9: as a fan of mine pointed out, Trump lied, he 520 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 9: said we'd get sick of winning, and that's complete bs. 521 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 3: It did. 522 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: And I've tried to I've tried to warn people that 523 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: you think you're mad about USAID, and of course we're 524 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 1: all mad about USAID, and we're in enjoying watching it 525 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: all get exposed. Wait till the old Pentagon audit comes 526 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: through there are that we've. 527 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,800 Speaker 3: Seen just the tips so far. 528 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 1: There is so much more coming, and I think it's 529 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: going to be eye popping for a lot of normies 530 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: out there, because, as you said, some of us have 531 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: been screaming up about this for a long time. We've 532 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: just never had anyone with the guts to actually do 533 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: something about it. 534 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 9: Yeah, and I think with the normies, when people are 535 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 9: lied to, regardless of your politics, people get upset. So 536 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 9: if you're funding things like Politico and some of these 537 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 9: news organizations, normies who were told for years were independent journalists, 538 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 9: we speak truth to power, and now you're getting millions 539 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,880 Speaker 9: from the government that's obviously not being independent at all. 540 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 9: That's being an agent of the state. That's a very 541 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 9: different situation. And the thing is, my understanding is Trump 542 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 9: basically re engineered a program that Obama had built. So 543 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 9: this is why legally they're having such issues stopping it. 544 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 9: It's not a doge, is not a new organization. It's 545 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 9: a repurposing of an Obama built organization. And they don't 546 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 9: know what to do to stop it, and they can't, 547 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 9: and he's really on its hair, and it's just Jesse. 548 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 9: Not only did neither of us ever see something like 549 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 9: this in our lifetimes, I think both of us would 550 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 9: have agreed if you asked us in November if something 551 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 9: this would happen, we'd be like, slow your role. 552 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 7: We could be optimistic, but come on, Washington is slow. 553 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 7: This is not going to happen. Let's be realistic. 554 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: I think I said that verbatim. I'm pretty sure I 555 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: said that verbatim on my show. Trump's gonna do a 556 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: lot of good things. He's going to get the borders secured. 557 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: Slow down on how he's going to fix all this stuff. 558 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 3: This is not Oh, I was the King Sit I 559 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 3: called all this stuff. 560 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 1: He's going so fast, Michael, I got to check my 561 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 1: phone for updates during the commercial breaks of the show 562 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: because God only knows what kind of what he's attacking 563 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: next of these people. 564 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 565 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: Honestly, it was a couple of weeks ago some congress 566 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 1: woman introduced some bill to put Trump's face on Mount Rushmore, 567 00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: and I'll be honest, I completely rolled my eyes. I 568 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 1: read it and thought, Okay, that's the dumbest freaking thing 569 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: I've ever heard. If he actually eliminates the Department of 570 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: Transportation or Department of Education. 571 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,120 Speaker 3: Actually Transportation can go too. If he actually. 572 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: Deletes the Department of Education, you can remove the other 573 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: four name for other four faces. As far as I'm considered, 574 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: just make Trump the wholemount Rushmore. 575 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 7: Screw him out. Rushmore, put him on the currency. 576 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: Ha ha oh, they lose their minds, they put them, 577 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: put them on a dollar bill and watch all these 578 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 1: libs burn their money. 579 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 7: What's even funniers? 580 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 9: As someone else pointed out, now every teacher has him 581 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 9: on the wall twice with that hall of precedent, because. 582 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 7: He's forty five and forty seven. You gotta look at 583 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 7: that face twice. 584 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:43,479 Speaker 3: Okay, Michael. 585 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: The Democrat Party is in disarray, and I certainly it's 586 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: not a party I want to revive at all. But 587 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: parties do come back. You have pointed it out to 588 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: me several times before. This is a party that has 589 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: held power really for most of the time, certainly most 590 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: of the twentieth century in Washington, d C. 591 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 3: They will, oh, will come back. Right now. It's hard 592 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 3: to see how that happens. 593 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: Jasmine Crockett can't get her fat mouth off the television set. 594 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: They appear to be leader lists doubling down on everything 595 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: that wasn't working. 596 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 3: Where do they go from here? 597 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 9: There's two ways, and one is really scary and one 598 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 9: is really not so scary. 599 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 7: Which one do you want to hear first? 600 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 3: Oh? I want to hear them not so scary. We'll 601 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 3: finish with scary. 602 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 9: The not so scary is the John Federan route, where 603 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 9: you work with the Republicans on issues that like a 604 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 9: huge percentage of Americans agree on, and then you pick 605 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 9: your battles on the things that the Republicans the country 606 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 9: has not come around to, and you find a path 607 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 9: forward because a lot of people for many years have 608 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 9: voted Democrat. When Upton Sinclair ran for governor of California 609 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 9: nineteen thirty four, after running several times as socialist, he 610 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 9: ran as a Democrat, and he said, people like voting 611 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,640 Speaker 9: for parties that the grandparents voted for. So that brand name, 612 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 9: although it's tarnished now, is still a household name that 613 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 9: everyone knows. So there's definitely a path to go this 614 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 9: Clinton nineties Democrat way, in the same way the Republican 615 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 9: Party was dead of at George W. 616 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 7: Bush and look what ended up happening. 617 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 9: The scary route is there's a lot of people in 618 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 9: the Democratic Party and the Democratic intellectual intellect intelligentsia who 619 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,959 Speaker 9: want us to go back to a regimented COVID style regime. 620 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 9: They want this, they want the cage, and going in 621 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 9: that direction as they're going in England is a path 622 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 9: forward for at least some members of the Democratic Party 623 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 9: and some of the leaders in power. Instead of the 624 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 9: soft glove, let's get the iron fist. 625 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: I don't think you're wrong about that at all. It's 626 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 1: all they understand is force. Anyway, all right, Michael, I 627 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 1: have to let you go. Thank you, my brother, amount 628 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: of time. Come back soon, great pleasure. All right, Let's 629 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,239 Speaker 1: do something we never do on the show ever. But 630 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: there was a Super Bowl yesterday and I realized you 631 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: probably watched it. Shoot, I watched it. I was at 632 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: a party. You know, I don't watch the NFL, but 633 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: I watched the game this was on. Let's talk a 634 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: little bit about that next. Before we talk about that, 635 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: let's talk about putting our money where our morals are. 636 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,480 Speaker 1: Where do you have your cell phone? Who's your mobile 637 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: phone company? I have Puretalk, CEO of my company fought 638 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 1: in Vietnam two tours. When you get a hold of 639 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: someone at Puretalk, you'll be shocked because they'll be pleasant 640 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: and they speak English. 641 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 3: Why is that? 642 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: Because Puretalk hires Americans right here in America. No more 643 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: having to deal with click click and some godforsaken third 644 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: world dump. Now you get to talk to an American 645 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: switch to cell phone service. You don't sacrifice coverage on 646 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: the same five G network, and you'll pay less. 647 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 3: I pay half of what I was paying a T Mobile. 648 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: Half free phones right now with qualifying plans. You realize 649 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: that puretalk dot com slash jessetv. 650 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 3: We'll be back. 651 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: Not a great day, I guess for Taylor Swift. Kind 652 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: of a crappy super Bowl. 653 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 3: I don't know. Are they all going like this now 654 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 3: in the NFL? 655 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,719 Speaker 1: Joining me now, Jake Crane, Blaine Crane, and David Cohne, 656 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: co hosts of Crane and Company on the Daily Wire, 657 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: which is highly, highly entertaining. Okay, so, Jake, I guess 658 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: I'll start with you. I haven't really watched the NFL 659 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 1: in a few years, which makes me that weird guy 660 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 1: at the party now who doesn't know who anyone is. 661 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: But I went to the Super Bowl party yesterday and 662 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: a couple of things have apparently changed. There's a white 663 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: cornerback and Patrick Mahomes sucks. 664 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 3: What happened in the last few years since I stopped 665 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 3: watching h. 666 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, well, you hopped in at a crazy time and typically, look, 667 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 10: most super Bowls don't go like that. You know, sometimes 668 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 10: hit the flip of a point, and we kind of 669 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 10: saw some of that in the College Ball playoff as well. 670 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 10: But I'm gonna be honest. Overall, the super Bowl wasn't great. 671 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 10: The halftime show was terrible, but they Boode Taylor Swift. 672 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 3: And gave Trump a standing ovation. 673 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 10: Part of me feels like America's back a little bit, 674 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 10: so you can take some solid jesse into that. 675 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 2: Now. 676 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 3: As far as the white Corner. 677 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 10: I mean, we talked about it on Craning Company. I 678 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,439 Speaker 10: mean it's to the point now where we're asking, could 679 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 10: this be our version of Jackie Robinson. 680 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,760 Speaker 3: I don't know, we're gonna find out. 681 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 10: But yeah, the uh he's breaking barriers left and right, 682 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 10: and we call him Haru the Great White Ninja. 683 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: All Right, I gotta I gotta know before we get 684 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: into the halftime show with the ads and everything else, 685 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: I gotta know what was on the menu fellas me personally, 686 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: I was going to a party, so I smoked my 687 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,320 Speaker 1: world famous kso did for three hours on a smoker. 688 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: We all know what the hit of the party was. 689 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't the chuck, It wasn't it was mine. What'd 690 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: you guys eat? 691 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 11: We had a lot of pizza and wings.

So yeah. 694 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 10: We live streamed the Super Bowl from a cigar bar 695 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 10: and sometimes and people in the audience will send us food. 696 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 10: Somebody decided to decided to send us a barbecue, pineapple 697 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 10: an anchovy pizza, which is awful, And to be honest 698 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,280 Speaker 10: with you, I think it's how COVID starts. 699 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,399 Speaker 11: You might take issue with the pineapple, though, Yeah, I'm 700 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 11: fine with the anchovies on the barbecue. 701 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 3: That's not as serious saying David. No one said I 702 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 3: love it. I love barbar yourself. 703 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 11: When you don't put pineapple on there, though, that's where 704 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 11: I draw. 705 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 3: Did you eat any of the anchovies? I would have 706 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 3: taken them off? Yeah, but yeah, no, it's uh. 707 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 10: Look, we're typically wings and pizza guys, but not with pineapple, 708 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 10: anchovies and barbecue sauce. That's uh, it's just Unamerican. 709 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: I want caeso, though, well, you got to smoke the 710 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:38,800 Speaker 1: caso too, Fellas. 711 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,280 Speaker 3: It's not just enough to have queso. 712 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,560 Speaker 1: You have to take the time, put the high quality 713 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: cheeses like Velveta in there, and make sure you're really doing. 714 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 10: Something classic Jesse, oh the finest. 715 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,760 Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, So look, you guys are young. I'm old 716 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:54,760 Speaker 3: as you can see. 717 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: I had to turn to my wife and ask who 718 00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: is Kendrick Lamar? And I realized due to the look 719 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: on her face. 720 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 3: I now know that that was a stupid question. 721 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:07,200 Speaker 1: But apparently this guy's really popular. I have nothing against rap, 722 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: I'm not much of a rapman myself, but I couldn't 723 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: understand a single word that guy was saying. I hate 724 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 1: to stand like my father, but there was no melody, 725 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 1: there was. 726 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 3: Nothing to jam to. It was a dead for their 727 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 3: feet to bed deep. 728 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: I have no idea what happened during that time, absolute 729 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 1: straight garbage. 730 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 3: Imagine coming to New Orleans for the. 731 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 11: Super Bowl, the home of Little Wayne, and yeah, it's 732 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 11: not a hip hop thing. 733 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 3: You can't even get. 734 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 11: Someone like Lil Wayne to come out there if you're 735 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 11: dead set on hip hop. Three solutions Jesse to fix 736 00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 11: the halftime performance either one. Let Chris Stapleton do it 737 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 11: every single year, because if you already love for his 738 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 11: nap and boem and to win, if you don't get ready, 739 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 11: you're about to fall in love. Also, we don't need 740 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 11: the theatric I don't need dancers, don't need backup singers. Heck, 741 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 11: he didn't even need a guitar or really even a 742 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 11: microphone or a stage. Just put him on the fifty 743 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 11: yard line seeing broken Halo's acapella and get ready to 744 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 11: feel something for a few minutes. Second solution is a 745 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 11: different genre artist for everyone who wants to tune in. 746 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 11: We can figure out the technology. If you want to 747 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 11: listen to country music artists, you switch to the to 748 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 11: stop with the be hof. You want to listen to 749 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 11: Creed and Rock, you know, you can flip to the 750 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 11: one that has them as their halftime performer. Or third, 751 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 11: we just get rid of it all together, because elite 752 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 11: athletes running into each other for three minutes should be 753 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 11: entertaining enough. 754 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 12: Well, can we can we keep the option of Chris 755 00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 12: Stapleton and Creed one of the two, one of the two. 756 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 12: We can pick a different one every year. 757 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 3: If you want to do that. 758 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 12: But the thing about Kendrick Lamar is he has great songs. 759 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,959 Speaker 12: He's a good artist. I mean, go back through his time. 760 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 12: The amount of hits this guy has is absolutely ridiculous 761 00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 12: in you just couldn't understand what he's saying. Is somend 762 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 12: like Joe Biden on a debate stage And I don't 763 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 12: even know if you had subtiles up there, they could 764 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 12: have even done it. So at some point Kendrick has 765 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 12: good songs him and the Drake Beef's kind of weird. 766 00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 12: I'll never get it. I don't want to get it. 767 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 12: But can we at least understand what you're saying? 768 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, Now, look, I really haven't enjoyed a halftime show 769 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: since Janet Jackson. But that's another story entirely. Let's changed 770 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 1: the subject to. 771 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 3: Talk about the. 772 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: Change the subject and talk about Uh. One thing I 773 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 1: did notice, and I don't know whether this is the 774 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 1: thing to stop watching the freaking NFL. 775 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 3: There was a lot of God talking and I loved it. 776 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: Jalen Hurt's talking about it, Philly's head coach, I don't know, 777 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 1: Nick something talking about it. 778 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 3: It seemed like a lot of players were more. 779 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: Focused on values, on God, on good things. Is this 780 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: I realized that's always been present in sports. But I 781 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,200 Speaker 1: watched the post game at the party I was at. 782 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 1: It seemed to be a It seemed to be ramped 783 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: up from what I remember. 784 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:24,840 Speaker 2: Is it. 785 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 10: Yeah, we're seeing it a lot more and it's great. 786 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 10: I just wish the NFL marketing would get behind it, 787 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:33,720 Speaker 10: because if you look at the way the NFL still 788 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 10: markets itself from a DEI structure, from a left wing structure, 789 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,719 Speaker 10: from the pride, you know, element of this. 790 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 12: The NFL marketing. 791 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 10: The only reason they haven't gone the way the NBA 792 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 10: is because we. 793 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 3: Love football so much. 794 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 10: If it was basketball, they'd be going the way of 795 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:49,560 Speaker 10: the NBA. But it's so nice to see guys and listen, 796 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 10: believe in what you want to believe. 797 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 3: I'm all for that. 798 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 10: But having the ability to not have the fear of 799 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 10: being able to go out and say it, I think 800 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 10: is truly American. And you're kind of seeing a coalescing 801 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 10: of that. And I think, you know, you're seeing the 802 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 10: amount of guys NFL and professional athletes that are coming 803 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,839 Speaker 10: out and really saying they like Trump. And I think 804 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,000 Speaker 10: most guys in the NFL voted for him, But I'm 805 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 10: all for a free speech, freedom of religion and being 806 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 10: able to talk about it. But we're seeing this all 807 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 10: over sports, Jesse. It's not just the NFL. You look 808 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 10: at college basketball, you look at college football. It's really 809 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 10: starting to become normal again. And I'm really excited. They 810 00:39:21,040 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 10: took in racism out of the zone. 811 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 3: No, we beat it out. We're no longer racist. No, 812 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 3: we beat racism. They took it out. 813 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 11: Also, Nick Something is a heck of a head coach. 814 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 11: He really did it is it is. In many ways, 815 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 11: I felt like we were back to my childhood. I mean, one, 816 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 11: the sitting president showed up and. 817 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 3: People cheered like that was great, like you first time ever. 818 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 11: But that's something that when we were growing up, if 819 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 11: a sitting president showed up, no matter what party cheered. 820 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 11: Second of all, the game wasn't close. Most of the 821 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 11: games growing up were most of the Super Bowls when 822 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 11: I was growing up, they weren't really close games. 823 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,400 Speaker 3: And then, third of all, some of the commercials were funny. 824 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 3: Some of them were funny, which. 825 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,759 Speaker 11: They've set the bar solo the past couple of years 826 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 11: with no humor whatsoever. When we saw two or three 827 00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 11: that made me laugh. I said, maybe we are running back. 828 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:03,919 Speaker 11: We're Super Bowl of all time. 829 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 3: Though right overall, I've seen some bad ones. Man, I'm 830 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 3: alive as bad as bad. Why wasn't it good? 831 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 1: I hate to ask the question like the non sports 832 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: guy now, which apparently that's what I've become, which is 833 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: really really embarrassing. 834 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 3: I'm basically a woman, but I. 835 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 1: Thought the Kansas City Chiefs were supposed to be good. 836 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,840 Speaker 1: I walk into the party and all my bodies are like, 837 00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: it's going to be a juggernaut game. They've each lost 838 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: like one or two games, So why did the game suck? 839 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 2: Yeah? 840 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 10: Well, you know, Jesse, last year, you probably could have 841 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 10: got away with saying you're a woman. I think it's 842 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 10: starting to change now with kind of the news as 843 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 10: far as the as far as the game goes, it 844 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,800 Speaker 10: was surprising to us because you didn't think it was 845 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 10: going to be a blowout either way. I wasn't going 846 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 10: to be shocked at the Eagles won, but it was 847 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,800 Speaker 10: such a dominating performance at the line of scrimmage upfront, 848 00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 10: and that's where the game is won and lost in football, 849 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 10: all the way from the NFL to Friday Night Tikes 850 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 10: all the way through it. The Eagles didn't have to 851 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 10: bring extra guys to add pressure. They rush for all nights. 852 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 10: I don't think they live once when you look back 853 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 10: at it. The Chiefs couldn't run the ball the Eagles 854 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 10: could take on wasn't amazing, but they got enough to 855 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 10: keep themselves balanced. It was just an overwhelming tsunami of 856 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 10: dominance at the line of scrimmage where the game is 857 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 10: truly went and lost, and then it started to snowball 858 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 10: on the Chiefs and they just ran out of time. 859 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 10: I'm gonna be honest with you, though, I think you 860 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 10: could have played sixteen quarters and the Chiefs aren't coming 861 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 10: back to that game. 862 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: No, they were not coming back. That was a beating 863 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 1: from the get go. All right, let's switch this up 864 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: really quickly. Sports betting, I have no I have nothing 865 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: against it whatsoever. I've done it on a smaller scale, 866 00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 1: you know, five bucks on the game with a buddy, but. 867 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,399 Speaker 3: It's huge now. 868 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: The industry itself is enormous, the draft kings, the advertising. 869 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,919 Speaker 3: Where do you guys fall on sports betting? You won 870 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:48,160 Speaker 3: five bucks, didn't you? Yeah? 871 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 12: I mean you got a couple of zeros that actually 872 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 12: six grand after the Super Bowl, which is a win 873 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,320 Speaker 12: for me. I think sports betting is only going to 874 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 12: get bigger and bigger. It's to the point now where 875 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 12: you don't even have to like the sport to watch it. 876 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 12: If you bet on it, you'll watch it. I mean, 877 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 12: I watched underwater ping pong last night because I had 878 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 12: fifteen dollars on it. It was a heck of a match. 879 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 3: It was a heck of match. The Chinese ended up winning. 880 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:06,879 Speaker 3: That's a surprise there. 881 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 12: Betting is only going to get bigger, I mean more. 882 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,279 Speaker 12: You got to think you might have DraftKings, you might 883 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,440 Speaker 12: have all these big sports book but there's a lot 884 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 12: of sports books under them, and it's only going to 885 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 12: expand because people want to bet money even if they 886 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 12: don't like the sport. Hell, I went to a hockey 887 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,720 Speaker 12: game the other day. I don't even like watching hockey, 888 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 12: but I bet on it end up winning five hundred dollars. 889 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 3: Best believe I'll go back. 890 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 10: Well, Jesse, we bring this point up all the time. 891 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 3: Here's what I don't understand. 892 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 10: Like I'll give you there's certain states in the South 893 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 10: that have a lottery, but they don't allow sports betting. 894 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 10: If you can somehow sit down and hold my hand 895 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 10: like the five year old and explain to me. 896 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 3: How the lottery is not bad, but. 897 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 10: Sports betting is bad.

So now you look at 963 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 14: these young men who are now in data and in 964 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 14: the private information about maybe hundreds of millions of American 965 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 14: citizens as young as nineteen.
