Welcome to 19 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 1: America's Voice Live. 20 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 4: I'm Steve grerid Is Thursday, the sixth of February. 21 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: Let's get to the day's stop choices. Always. Thank you 22 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: for joining us here on Real America's Voice Now. 23 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 4: Yesterday, President Trump signed an executive order protecting women and 24 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 4: keeping men out of women in sports at the high 25 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 4: school and college level. Also, protesters followed Ice operations, warning 26 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 4: illegals when Ice was coming to throw them out. 27 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: But where did the leaks come from? Big question? 28 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 4: Then later Louisiana Senator Bill Casiy releasing a statement saying 29 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 4: he will vote for RFK Junior as the Health and 30 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 4: Human Service as Secretary, making it easier for him to 31 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 4: get confirmed. 32 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that. All of that coming up on 33 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,759 Speaker 1: AVL today. Let's start here. 34 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 4: A federal judges ruled that the Treasury Department must grant 35 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 4: limited access, just limited access, to sensitive payment systems, including 36 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 4: some related to the Doze cryptocurrency. The ruling, which stems 37 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 4: from a legal challenge, could have implications for transparency regarding 38 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 4: how the government interacts in its payment systems. Although the 39 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 4: judge acknowledged the need for openness in government operations, concerns 40 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 4: over national security and privacy have resulted in restrictions on 41 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 4: the scope of the records to be released. This decision 42 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 4: could set a precedent for future cases involving the disclosure 43 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 4: of information about all things in government financial systems. 44 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: It's a concern. Also, a federal judge has. 45 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 4: Put a pause on the Trump administration's plan to buy 46 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 4: out federal workers, which was part of a push to 47 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 4: streamline government operations. The delay comes as concerns grow over 48 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,959 Speaker 4: the legal and practical issues that could arise from the buyout, 49 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 4: potentially impacting thousands of employees. 50 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: Joining out to discuss this and more. 51 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 4: Representative Harriet Higgeman of the Great State of Wyoming, congress Woman. 52 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: Thank you for being here, Thank you for having me. 53 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: So let's talk about this. 54 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 4: More than forty thousand federal workers said yes, I'll take 55 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 4: the buyout and be a payout over about eight months. 56 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: That they would basically an eight month paid vacation. 57 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 4: And those on the left are I mean, they're screaming 58 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 4: as if this is a terrible thing. But back in 59 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 4: nineteen ninety five I checked the records, Bill Clinton offered 60 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 4: a similar program. He got more than one hundred thousand 61 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 4: federal employees had taken early buyout. I guess it's okay 62 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 4: for Democrats, not for Republicans. 63 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: Kind of par for the course, Isn't it That. 64 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 2: Double standard raises its ugly little ahead every time you 65 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,519 Speaker 2: get a Republican in the White House? Does it? 66 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 4: It? 67 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: Sure does? 68 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 4: How important is this the streamline government? I look, we 69 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 4: know we've got too many federal employees. We've got a 70 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 4: lot of concerns, But it seems to me that judges 71 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 4: keep intervening on behalf of those in the left, and 72 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 4: it doesn't seem to be reciprocated for those in the right. 73 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: But how important to. 74 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 4: Downsize government to reduce the number of employees we have? 75 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 3: Important? 76 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 2: But I think there's a bigger issue here that people 77 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 2: need to start realizing. So I'm a person who truly 78 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: believes in separation and powers and our constitutional foundation. It's 79 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: the legislative branch who legislates. The executive branch is supposed 80 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: to carry out the legislation, and then the judicial branch 81 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: interprets what the law is. What we're finding here, and 82 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: what I've argued about for years is that these administrative 83 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: agencies and regulatory agencies violate that because it allows the 84 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: executive branch to actually be the branch that's legislating. So 85 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: these administrative agencies are adopting regulations and issuing guidance documents 86 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 2: and and bringing enforcement actions against US citizens. But I've 87 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: always had the kind of the belief that at least 88 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 2: those agencies were under the oversight of the executive branch, 89 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: meaning the President of the United States or the governor 90 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: what we're seeing by these battles and what you're seeing 91 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: what these judges are holding is they're saying, there's not 92 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 2: only no legislative accountability, we're not even going to allow 93 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 2: the chief executive officer that was properly elected by the 94 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: electorate of the United States of America to control and 95 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: administer and oversee these agencies. 96 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 3: So this is actually what I think. 97 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: I think this is exposing a very scary situation because 98 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 2: it's one thing for me to argue that the lawmaking 99 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: authority ought to be with Congress and we're the ones 100 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 2: that make the law and try to push back against 101 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 2: these administrative agencies. But at least we all assumed that 102 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 2: the president could decide what happened with those administrative agencies. 103 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 3: We now have judges saying, oh, no, no, no, no, 104 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 3: not even the. 105 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: President is in charge. These are independent agencies that can 106 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 2: do whatever they want to do. I have never heard 107 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: of a circumstance where a court has held that the 108 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 2: chief executive, the highest elected official in government, does not 109 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: have the ability to determine how much they're going to 110 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: have in terms of personnel, where they're going to have, 111 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: what offices are going to be downsized, how they're going 112 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 2: to hire. That is such a classic example of the 113 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 2: authority of the chief executive over these agencies. 114 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 3: And we now have. 115 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, clearly under his purview. It's the executive branch. 116 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,039 Speaker 4: These are executive agencies. You should be able to hire 117 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 4: and fire and do as you need to do to 118 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 4: run the executive branch. But that's not what happens in 119 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 4: these activist judges seem to go to different directions, you know, 120 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 4: talking about oversight and accountability. Of course in the headlines 121 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 4: now us AID spending money and God only knows what 122 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 4: Guatemal and sex change operations for children, transsexual operas in Colombia, 123 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 4: and the list is. It's a mind blowing list, Madam congresswoman, And. 124 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: For me, it's outrageous. But what's more outrageous. 125 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 4: USA IDEA doesn't think they have to answer to anyone. 126 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, we don't answer to you. I mean, 127 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? Right now? 128 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: That's been very clear, And they do not come within 129 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 2: the jurisdiction of the committees that I have been on. 130 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: But I have talked to other representatives and they've said 131 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 2: that USAID has refused any kind of accountability or. 132 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 3: Oversight for years. 133 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: They truly do believe that they are a rogue agency 134 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: or a roague government in and of themselves, and they're 135 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 2: entitled to do whatever it is that they want. Now, 136 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 2: what I want to say is that the amount of 137 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 2: money that we spend on this agency is outrageous fifty 138 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: billion dollars in counting. But I think it's more insidious 139 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: than that. What we've done is we have created a 140 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 2: monster within our own mist that has been working diligently 141 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 2: around the world to undermine our moral authority, undermine our culture, 142 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 2: undermine and destabilized governments, without any involvement with Congress, without 143 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 2: any the involvement with the President, without any involvement by 144 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: the State Department. 145 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 3: We truly do have a rogue. 146 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,280 Speaker 2: Agency that has been going in We just found out 147 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 2: today about Cuba that they created that the usc AID, 148 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: through all different kinds of cutouts, actually created a comparable 149 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 2: social media platform to Twitter to try to undermine that government. Now, 150 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 2: setting aside what Cuba is, it isn't for USAID to 151 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 2: overthrow foreign governments. 152 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: Yet that's what they've been spending money on. 153 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it looks like they're spending money on throwing overthrowing 154 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 4: this government. And then you listen to those on the 155 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 4: left that are out in front of the USAID office, 156 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 4: like Senator Warren or Maxine Waters as some of the rest. 157 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it's very shrill, it's very it's it's full 158 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: blown panic. But it's bizarre. 159 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 4: Because they're not getting answers either. 160 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what they're defending. And they're attacking Elon Musk. 161 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 4: Look from where I stay in Congress from wan, Elon 162 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 4: Musk is the messenger. He saying, look, you've got spending 163 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 4: here here, here, all over the place that's completely out 164 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 4: of control, completely outrageous, does not advance what's good for 165 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 4: the American citizens. And yet they're screaming at him. I mean, 166 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 4: I think might be in the wrong direction. 167 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: No, you know why they're screaming That money is being 168 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 2: laundered back into their coffers. That's the other thing that 169 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: we're finding is that this Usaaid money, the employees, they 170 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: are ninety five percent of the donations that come out 171 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 2: of that agency go to Democrat candidates. When you look 172 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 2: at the again, the NGOs and the various organizations that 173 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: are receiving these funds, and then that money is funneled 174 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 2: back to Democrats through campaign donations. That's part of the 175 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 2: reason that they're screaming what's happening is it's again not 176 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: just that we're taking down an agency that is very 177 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 2: anti American, funding the Taliban, funding Hamas, funding organizations that 178 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 2: are fundamentally contrary to our constitutional republic. But then those NGOs, 179 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: those organizations are turning around and giving money back to 180 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 2: back to the Democrat candidates. So this is just one 181 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 2: of the mechanisms by which they've been laundering money, and 182 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 2: that's why they're screaming hysterically. 183 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 4: Well, and look, I think this is going to be 184 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: pretty small. Once you start pulling the curtain back and 185 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 4: you weigh in and tell me the Department Transportation one 186 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 4: hundred billion dollars or more, labor education, you start looking 187 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: at these departments in the government have these massive budgets 188 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 4: and you start pulling back, say, wait a second, where's 189 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 4: the money going. That's that's all we want to know. Look, 190 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 4: we are the American tax payers. We pay a trement, 191 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 4: we pay more than anybody in the world. We just 192 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 4: want to know how the money is being spent. And 193 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 4: once you get into these big departments, I think it's 194 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 4: going to be worse than USAID potentially. 195 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 2: What do you say in terms in terms of the money, 196 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 2: not necessarily in terms of the philosophy. I actually joined 197 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: a bill last year to abolish USAID because I have 198 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: recognized for many, many years that it is an insidious organization, 199 00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 2: is anti American. It's been undermining US within as far 200 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 2: as these other agencies. Abolishing the federal Department of Education, 201 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 2: which we should because education is a state issue, not 202 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 2: a federal issue, but that is hundreds of billions of dollars. 203 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 3: If you look. 204 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: At the amount of money that we spent that we 205 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: spend on these agencies, it's outrageous. But here's another question 206 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: we need to be asking, not only in terms of 207 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 2: looking at the agency and what it's doing. One of 208 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: the questions I have is why is the Department of Education? 209 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 2: Why do they have weapons at ammunition? Why does the 210 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: IRS spend money on weapons and ammunition? Why does the 211 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 2: US Forest Service have weapons at ammunition? Why are we 212 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,760 Speaker 2: arming these federal agencies? What is the purpose that belongs. 213 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 4: There's a question. It's a great question, one I've been 214 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 4: asking for a very long time. It seems that every 215 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 4: single agency of government the irs, the Forest Service, the 216 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 4: Department of Education, all the agencies just named and a 217 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 4: lot more all have weapons and massive amounts of ammunition. Actually, 218 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: it's an incredible expenditure of people going, look, why is that? 219 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 2: I think one of the reasons that it is is 220 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: I think that they're attempting to take these office that 221 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 2: they're trying to make create a shortage in ammunition because 222 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: they're all also by anti gun at. 223 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 3: The very same time. 224 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: But again, I don't know how we got to the 225 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: point where we are weaponizing what should be relatively benign 226 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: federal agencies, and as you say, they're stockpiling weapons at ammunition, again, 227 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 2: an expense that we should not be paying for. In 228 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 2: addition to looking at their fundamental purpose, the National Forest Services, 229 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: the Forest Service, it was created to provide a continuous 230 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 2: supply of timber and a continuous supply of water, and 231 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 2: here we are, the Forest Service is doing everything. 232 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 3: Outside of that. 233 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 2: We need to get back to the appropriate scope and 234 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 2: authority and authorization for these agencies, constrain them to what 235 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: they were created for and stop this nonsense. 236 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 4: Well, you're exactly right, and obviously in Wyoming you know 237 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 4: this quite intimately. The Forest Service and the BLM, the 238 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 4: original BLM, spend their days during the previous administration preventing 239 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 4: people from having access to the force, prevent logging, prevent grazing, 240 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 4: prevent the. 241 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: Use of the land the way it's supposed to be used. 242 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 4: But I'm of the opinion that the federal government shouldn't 243 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 4: have all this land to begin with. I don't think 244 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 4: it fits in the constitution. That's an argument that we 245 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 4: could spend all day on. Let me ask you about 246 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 4: a couple of other things. Just about the pace of 247 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 4: Donald Trump as president. We're about eighteen days in. I 248 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 4: guess I've never seen anything like it. I've covered a 249 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 4: lot of presidents and a lot of administrations. 250 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: It is look at a smile on your face. 251 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 4: It is absolutely remarkable, isn't it. 252 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 3: It's exciting. 253 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 2: I was at the White House yesterday for the signing 254 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,440 Speaker 2: of the Executive Boarder to keep men. 255 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 3: Out of girls' sports. It's an exciting time to be here. 256 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: We're going to accomplish a lot, and we have Donald 257 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: Trump to thank for it. 258 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: We do so about being in the room for that. 259 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 4: When it comes to culture wars, it is always been 260 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 4: odd to me that the Democrats would stake their flag 261 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 4: on that one. That's the hill they want to die 262 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 4: on as transgender women, which is biological men in women's sports. 263 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: Obviously, it was tossed out yesterday. 264 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,800 Speaker 4: The NCAA says they will follow the federal laws now immediately. 265 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 4: Donald Trump says, not only will we not allow it 266 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 4: in high school and college, we will not allow it 267 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 4: for the Olympics in twenty twenty eight in Los Angeles. 268 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: He is setting the center not just for the United States, 269 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 1: but for the world, isn't it. 270 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 2: That's why I'm saying USA I D is so incredibly 271 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 2: insidious because it's the agency that has been fostering and 272 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 2: pushing these policies and this agenda and this lack of 273 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 2: morality throughout the world. It has undermined our standing, that 274 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: has created very serious crises in other countries. And we 275 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: have to understand that that that's where a lot of 276 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: this cultural stuff is coming from is through USAID. Cutting 277 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 2: that funding, cutting out that type that type of nonsense 278 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 2: will hopefully allow all of us to get back on 279 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: an even keel, a and more of a sound footing 280 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: of who and what we are. I don't think seven 281 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 2: years ago and I would have ever thought we would 282 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 2: even be discussing something that's absurd. 283 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 3: Yet here we are. 284 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: Because of this cultural war that we have been in, 285 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 2: and one of the primary combatants in the cultural war 286 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 2: has been USAID, and it's why we need to shut 287 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 2: that agency down. 288 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: Well, congress Woman, I greatly appreciate you being here. 289 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 4: The people of Wyoming are lucky to have you, considering 290 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 4: the predecessor that was there. 291 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: I'm glad you came on. Look forward to talking to 292 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 1: you again. Thank you so much, Thank you greatly appreciate 293 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: it all. 294 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 4: Right, coming up after the break, as you know, President 295 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 4: Trump signed a big executive order as we just discussed 296 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 4: protecting women, and coming up next a woman who has 297 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: been fighting for that, who is also in the room. 298 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: She'll be joining me next year in America's Voice Live
