Speaker 1: Right News round Up and Information Overload hour toll free.
Speaker 1: Here's on number. It's eight hundred and nine to four
Speaker 1: one sean if you want to be a part of
Speaker 1: the program. When I spoke with President Trump yesterday, I
Speaker 1: brought up the issue of this being a midterm election year.
Speaker 1: I am arguing the most important midterm in our lifetime,
Speaker 1: because if Democrats get back in power, I'm going to
Speaker 1: predict with one hundred percent certainty what things are going
Speaker 1: to look like. All progress that the President is making
Speaker 1: both on the domestic front, and we saw unbelievable numbers
Speaker 1: today from the Atlanta Fed, you know now, pointing out
Speaker 1: five point one percent fourth quarter growth on top of
Speaker 1: the third quarter growth of four point three percent. If
Speaker 1: you've been listening to this program regularly, you know that
Speaker 1: I've been saying, well, I'm willing to give some runway
Speaker 1: because of all the President's policies. It is mathematically impossible
Speaker 1: not to see math of economic growth, largest tax cuts
Speaker 1: in history, the opening of policies that will lead to
Speaker 1: energy dominance, that lowers the cost of everything you buy
Speaker 1: at every store that you go to. It impacts every
Speaker 1: industry in every imaginable way, especially in the AI era,
Speaker 1: it needs massive amounts of energy. Those policies coupled with
Speaker 1: something the country has never seen before, which is trillions
Speaker 1: and trillions of dollars in committed manufacturing investment money. And
Speaker 1: that's for rare earths, that's for semiconductor chips, that's for automobiles,
Speaker 1: that is for national security defense spending. I mean, this
Speaker 1: is going to create a ton of high paying career
Speaker 1: jobs for many of you out there.
Speaker 2: And when these.
Speaker 1: Jobs get online, we're going to somehow going to figure
Speaker 1: out a way to make you aware of all of
Speaker 1: them so you can get ahead of the curve. And then,
Speaker 1: of course, on the foreign policy for you, not only
Speaker 1: did the President help and involve himself and expend political
Speaker 1: capital and helping to end eight nine depending how you
Speaker 1: count conflicts around the world, and he's working hard to
Speaker 1: finish the job in the Middle East, and working hard
Speaker 1: to finish the job with Ukraine and Russia. As we
Speaker 1: discussed last night, he's found out the most difficult of
Speaker 1: all of them. Then, of course you see the president's
Speaker 1: actions in Venezuela, him taking out the Iranian nuclear sites
Speaker 1: and keeping in line with his stated policy of no
Speaker 1: forever wars well, right now, the president, we have a
Speaker 1: new poll out today. I don't trust these other posters.
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you right now, there are very few
Speaker 1: people that have in the last ten years consistently accurately
Speaker 1: polled Donald J.
Speaker 2: Trump.
Speaker 1: There are not many of them, and we're going to
Speaker 1: introduce there's two of them to you in a second.
Speaker 1: But I would I would argue Rasmussen has been pretty
Speaker 1: consistently on target. I would argue John McLaughlin and associates
Speaker 1: has been pretty consistently on target. Maybe there's an Atlas.
Speaker 1: I don't even know who Atlas Polling is. Nobody knows
Speaker 1: who they are. Although they didn't do a particularly good
Speaker 1: job in the New York mayoral race, but nationally heading
Speaker 1: into the last election, they actually did a pretty good
Speaker 1: job the last two election cycles. Got to give him
Speaker 1: credit for that. The two people that I would argue
Speaker 1: that have been most consistent in polling President Trump perfectly
Speaker 1: are Matt Towery Insider Advantage, Robert Kaheley with Trafalgar, and
Speaker 1: they have come out with a joint poll together. Well
Speaker 1: it's actually Robert Kahelly with Trafalgar, I think, and it
Speaker 1: has President Trump his approval rating at fifty point two
Speaker 1: percent disapproval rating at forty four point six percent, any
Speaker 1: president polling at fi fifty percent in a midterm election year,
Speaker 1: the odds are significantly higher that the party in power
Speaker 1: can maintain control of Congress. That's why I keep saying
Speaker 1: it's the most important midterm you will see in your lifetime.
Speaker 1: Otherwise Democrats will have nothing but endless investigation, endless impeachment,
Speaker 1: endless obstruction, and all the great progress and hard work
Speaker 1: that the President, the administration Republicans have been active and
Speaker 1: involved in. We were expecting a decision today on the
Speaker 1: issue of redistricting and jerry mandering, etc.
Speaker 2: And I'm hoping that comes out the right way.
Speaker 1: But if it does, Republicans odds will go up significantly.
Speaker 1: But anyway, but a fifty percent approval rating forty four
Speaker 1: percent disapproval rating is a good number for a president
Speaker 1: going into a midterm election year. Now, it is only
Speaker 1: happened three times in the last hundred years and four
Speaker 1: times in the last one hundred and fifty years that
Speaker 1: the party in power maintains control of Congress. That's why
Speaker 1: this poll matters. Anyway, we welcome back and are proud
Speaker 1: to introduce our friends att Towery Insider Advantage, Robert Kahley,
Speaker 1: the Trafalgar Group, guys, welcome back. Always good to have you,
Speaker 1: Thanks for being with us.
Speaker 3: Thank you, happy to be with you, happy to be here.
Speaker 2: Yes, sir, madam, I wrong am.
Speaker 1: I analysis about those people that consistently are incapable of
Speaker 1: polling Donald Trump. It seems to be a widespread phenomenon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. I mean, we've seen this for
Speaker 3: what three presidential cycles. They it's a combination of things.
Speaker 3: It's the way they go about gathering their data. A
Speaker 3: lot of it's old fashioned or some of it's very new,
Speaker 3: using panels that are very liberal, and so it's very hard.
Speaker 3: You have to get to the heart of the real
Speaker 3: what we call the shi Trump voter and in this case,
Speaker 3: the shy Trump approver approver or non approver.
Speaker 4: And it's hard to do.
Speaker 3: And the president I had the president of fifty about
Speaker 3: a week ago. Robert has him at fifty. Now this
Speaker 3: a few days ago, and he goes up and down
Speaker 3: out of this week's going to be sort of iffy
Speaker 3: because a whole lot of stuff has gone on, and
Speaker 3: the public always says, trouble digesting this stuff. But he's
Speaker 3: staying consistently much higher than these.
Speaker 1: Well, I think you're talking about Minnesota. But new video
Speaker 1: came out today, and this video is extraordinarily revealing, and
Speaker 1: it shows how confrontational the passenger in the car was
Speaker 1: in this case of Minnesota, and a very clear view
Speaker 1: that in fact, that car was driven right at that officer,
Speaker 1: and to me, it's a slam dunk case at this point.
Speaker 3: The yea.
Speaker 2: And on the issue of Maduro, you pulled that independently,
Speaker 2: didn't you.
Speaker 3: I did, and it sort of went this way.
Speaker 4: Sean.
Speaker 3: We started in the morning after all this, and the
Speaker 3: numbers were very good as the day went on. On
Speaker 3: Sunday they went down a bit, but that's because the
Speaker 3: President really didn't say anything else about it that day publicly,
Speaker 3: and you just had Marco Rubio, who did an excellent
Speaker 3: job on the three network talk shows. But most people
Speaker 3: don't watch that stuff, and so the public. We're going
Speaker 3: through a little time period right now where the public's
Speaker 3: a little confused on some of these things, and so
Speaker 3: the numbers are going to go up and down a
Speaker 3: little bit. I'm sure Robert would agree with that.
Speaker 1: Well, if peace and prosperity, Robert Haley drive elections. The
Speaker 1: Atlanta Fed now pointing out the fourth quarter growth was
Speaker 1: five point one percent.
Speaker 2: That to me is a shocking number.
Speaker 1: As optimistic as I've been about the economy, and again
Speaker 1: the trillions and committed manufacturing dollars for investment, and the
Speaker 1: president's energy policies and the largest tax cuts in history,
Speaker 1: and how all these policies, no tax on tips, overtime
Speaker 1: social Security, you get to deduct any car loan you
Speaker 1: may take out. That is all impactful towards hard working Americans,
Speaker 1: the middle class in this country. And no president has
Speaker 1: worked harder for them. And I think that you know,
Speaker 1: this affordability issue is dying on the vine for Democrats.
Speaker 5: Well, the key is that people know it. And that's
Speaker 5: the place that we think there could be a lot
Speaker 5: more work done. I mean, you've seen so many opportunities
Speaker 5: to put that message out. I mean, Matt and I
Speaker 5: talked about the idea that of a Thanksgiving Why in
Speaker 5: the world with a three huge NFL games, why would
Speaker 5: I add telling people the difference in price that a
Speaker 5: Thanksgiving meal went down? I mean, there, it's got to
Speaker 5: be a greater effort to educate people as the things
Speaker 5: happen for them. You can say their tax on tips,
Speaker 5: but they haven't felt that yet. I mean, you've got
Speaker 5: to demonstrate to them how much they're gonna save. That
Speaker 5: there needs to be a real education effort so the
Speaker 5: people can see what's happening, because we can't just wait
Speaker 5: or to trickle down and people to feel it a
Speaker 5: little bit at a time, because people are always going
Speaker 5: to think prices are too high. And as long as
Speaker 5: you know eighty percent of the public and Matt recently
Speaker 5: did a poll on this, that the eighty percent of
Speaker 5: the republic doesn't get their information from any place other
Speaker 5: than the main stream. So we've got to penetrate that.
Speaker 5: And if it means that, it has to be paid
Speaker 5: paid media, whatever it takes. But there has gotten to
Speaker 5: be a major effort. This old bottle of just waiting
Speaker 5: until six weeks before an election and in day the
Speaker 5: ads all over the the every area in advertising isn't
Speaker 5: going to be enough. This should be starting now.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, if you know we now
Speaker 1: have seen Matt, I want to go specific pickly, go
Speaker 1: to the economy, and I did not expect the last
Speaker 1: two quarters to be growing at this rate. This accelerated rate.
Speaker 1: If these numbers remain consistent and even continue to grow
Speaker 1: from here, how impactful will that be in a mid term.
Speaker 3: The problem that we have now is that Robert alluded
Speaker 3: to my media poll about twenty five percent of Americans
Speaker 3: get their news from center to center right sources. Basically
Speaker 3: Fox News holds up that entire twenty five So half
Speaker 3: quarter of the country's getting their news primarily from Fox News,
Speaker 3: but for everybody else, they're getting it from Apple and
Speaker 3: Yahoo and CBS and NBC and ABC and CBS may
Speaker 3: be changing a little bit, but the slant they put
Speaker 3: on everything is so unbelievable that even if you have
Speaker 3: a great GDP number, they won't tell anyone. They focus
Speaker 3: on the negative. They have focused on the negative. To
Speaker 3: your point, you talked about this video that just came out.
Speaker 3: It's very I'm a lawyer, I know I look at
Speaker 3: that at it. This is bodycam from the individual. Is
Speaker 3: that not correct? The new video?
Speaker 1: I mean, it is devastating to the lie that is
Speaker 1: being has been told by you know, this idiot mayor
Speaker 1: and the city of governor of Minnesota, right, and.
Speaker 3: These and the women were taunting them, and that they
Speaker 3: were clearly not there as just you know, legal observers.
Speaker 3: But but of course the national media the other media
Speaker 3: won't tell people that. So there's got to be a way.
Speaker 3: We talked about this year after year after year. But
Speaker 3: you know, we have to understand right now that in
Speaker 3: the generic ballot for Congress, there has only been one
Speaker 3: poll out of the last thirteen that has had Republicans
Speaker 3: winning Congress. Every poll on the real clear politics average,
Speaker 3: every single one, it's had the Democrats winning. And so
Speaker 3: the Republicans need to wake up and realize they've got
Speaker 3: a great president. But they can't hide him there or
Speaker 3: ask him to do all the work. They've got to
Speaker 3: start telling people. Now, you know, you make your hay.
Speaker 3: Remember I've said this before miny cycles.
Speaker 5: You make your hay in May.
Speaker 3: You don't make it in June and July and October
Speaker 3: because then everybody's got their ads running and they're battling.
Speaker 3: So I just think the Republicans are not doing a
Speaker 3: good enough job of supporting the president in terms of
Speaker 3: their messaging on television, on social media and the like,
Speaker 3: and they got to step it up and tell people
Speaker 3: how great this economy is getting so quickly, and tell
Speaker 3: people the truth about what's going on in Minnesota and
Speaker 3: tell people the truth about what he's doing with regard
Speaker 3: to Venezuela instead of ready letting ABC News and George
Speaker 3: Stephanopolis frame it for them.
Speaker 2: You agree with that analysis, Robert Gahelly, Absolutely.
Speaker 5: And this is what and I've been talking about for years,
Speaker 5: and it's a broken model. It doesn't work anymore, and
Speaker 5: they've got to stop because the president again can't be
Speaker 5: the only messenger. I mean, it's got to be more,
Speaker 5: and it has to be focused on educating people. I mean,
Speaker 5: imagine if the money that was spent in New Jersey
Speaker 5: and in Virginia had been spent putting forth a Republican
Speaker 5: position on the shutdown. Both that and I have argued
Speaker 5: those elections would have turned out differently. But the shutdown
Speaker 5: is what had the absolute ultimate impact on those elections.
Speaker 5: And all the fear factor and going along with the
Speaker 5: fact that you know, people are pushing the idea that
Speaker 5: everybody's going to lose all your checks and everything that
Speaker 5: you've got coming to you was enough to scare enough
Speaker 5: voters at the last minute. That's what explains the way
Speaker 5: those poll numbers started to crash in the last ten days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, the good news is we got time to
Speaker 1: get the message out real quick.
Speaker 3: Matt Cohn, I give you a great example right now.
Speaker 3: What if they're an edge that showed Biden when he
Speaker 3: came out and offered I think it was a twenty
Speaker 3: five million dollar bounty on the head of Maduro. Another
Speaker 3: part of it saying from regular news saying President Trump
Speaker 3: today invaded Venezuela and captured Madua. I mean, I don't
Speaker 3: I don't understand why in the world we're not doing
Speaker 3: that and seeing that from the Republicans because.
Speaker 4: To me, yeah, it's people.
Speaker 2: I agree.
Speaker 1: I mean, unfortunately, you know, it's the amount of fake
Speaker 1: news out there and outright lying and political spin. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's toxic at this point. But guys, great poll.
Speaker 1: We're going to have you on often. This is to me,
Speaker 1: the most important election year in our lifetime, and I'm
Speaker 1: asking this audience to promise me one thing that if
Speaker 1: they do nothing else this year, they vote in November.
Speaker 1: They've got to get out and vote and know what's
Speaker 1: at stake here. Appreciate you, guys.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine to four one Sean. If you
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program Believe it
Speaker 1: or not. This week is the one year anniversary since
Speaker 1: the Pacific Palisades fires.
Speaker 2: And I've been reading a lot about it.
Speaker 1: The La Times actually had a great expos on this,
Speaker 1: and in the exposay they identified something a fact that
Speaker 1: they had long been forgotten by many and prior to
Speaker 1: the wildfires. Now, remember, wildfires in California are predictable. They
Speaker 1: don't practice the science of forestry out there. Santa Ana
Speaker 1: Winds and I live five years in Santa Barbara in
Speaker 1: the eighties, and I know all about them. I mean,
Speaker 1: they are predictable events. Wildfires are predictable events. If you
Speaker 1: practice forestry, removing the kindling around inside of the forest
Speaker 1: and eliminating dead trees, et cetera, that lessens the ability
Speaker 1: of these fires to spread the way they did, the
Speaker 1: way we saw a year ago. And you know, all
Speaker 1: of these people, thousands of people lost their homes, and
Speaker 1: only a few hundred, according to the last reading I've seen,
Speaker 1: have been able to even get a permit to start
Speaker 1: the process of rebuilding. Many people now are are just
Speaker 1: abandoning their properties for good. They're now forced to still
Speaker 1: pay property taxes, which is unfathomable. We've had people call
Speaker 1: the show and tell us these heartbreaking stories and then
Speaker 1: they have to pay on insurance on top of it all.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just not comprehensible to me. And you know,
Speaker 1: you look at issues like this, and then you look
Speaker 1: at a guy like Gavin Newsom is clearly running to
Speaker 1: be president in twenty twenty eight, and let me be
Speaker 1: very clear, you know, have your eyes wide open.
Speaker 2: This guy is slick. He is.
Speaker 1: He is as slick as they come. He is deceitful.
Speaker 1: He doesn't tell the truth. You know, he had he
Speaker 1: had no rationale for why there was no water and
Speaker 1: those fire hydrants. Gets angry when it gets pointed out
Speaker 1: he had no rationale while the reservoir was was empty.
Speaker 1: You need to ask local officials. A woman comes running
Speaker 1: up to him, Governor, Governor, I'd like to talk to
Speaker 1: you about it. I lost my home. What are you
Speaker 1: gonna do about it? I'm talking to President Biden right now.
Speaker 1: Turns out, well, I'm calling President Biden right now because
Speaker 1: the lady says, can I talk to him? I mean
Speaker 1: just flat out lies to this poor lady. But anyway,
Speaker 1: on this anniversary, we wanted to Welcome back to the program,
Speaker 1: Steve Hilton. He's a Gubinatorio candidate for California. Also our
Speaker 1: friend John Conn Now John conn is an editor at Breitbart.
Speaker 1: He wrote this terrific song by the way, after it burns.
Speaker 1: I'll play a bit of it in a second. But
Speaker 1: you know, he wrote this song called Fighter that brought
Speaker 1: America's resilience to life. Following the attempted assassination of President Trump,
Speaker 1: he lost his house in the Pacific Palisades fire. Let
Speaker 1: me just play a quick sample here.
Speaker 6: I can solder on this far. Just stick yo shot
Speaker 6: said all gone, I'm a fatter run and I was
Speaker 6: going to be to die'm make it ride.
Speaker 7: Don't drove them sounds yes, yeah, don't cass you. And
Speaker 7: then last bit sire you are awa time. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 7: a faster.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Joining us now is John conn and Steve Hilton. Welcome
Speaker 1: both of you to the program again. John, my heart
Speaker 1: goes out to you. It's a year later. Have you
Speaker 1: been able to able to get a permit to rebuild
Speaker 1: your home? And what percentage of people that lost their
Speaker 1: homes were able to get permits?
Speaker 8: Well, Hi, Sean, thanks for having me. I haven't even
Speaker 8: started the process because as we mentioned, as we talked
Speaker 8: about last time, I still don't have all my insurance money,
Speaker 8: which is a very common theme. And it's impossible to
Speaker 8: plan your life if you don't know how much of
Speaker 8: your insurance money you're going to get and when you're
Speaker 8: going to get it.
Speaker 7: And as how is it possible a year after the
Speaker 7: fires you've not had a resolution with your insurance company.
Speaker 2: How is that possible?
Speaker 8: I don't know how it's possible. I think it's part
Speaker 8: of a Steve and I were talking about this not
Speaker 8: too long ago. I think there's sort of a force
Speaker 8: to break the collective will of the people, and I
Speaker 8: think the insurance is part of it, and I think
Speaker 8: the crippling permitting process is part of it. It's sort
Speaker 8: of a psyops land grap And as you said in
Speaker 8: your opening, you know people are giving up sadly because
Speaker 8: they can't afford to rebuilt, and they just don't want
Speaker 8: to wait four or five years to restart their lives again.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so so I already hear that. I'm
Speaker 1: sure that that's got to be very disturbing and uprooting
Speaker 1: to you and to your family, and very frustrating to
Speaker 1: both of you. And now did you have the state
Speaker 1: insurance or your own private insurance?
Speaker 8: I had private insurance. You know, I was very under
Speaker 8: insured because nobody thought this could possibly happen. And I'm still,
Speaker 8: you know, waiting for the for the payout. I don't
Speaker 8: know how much they're going to get me. I've gotten
Speaker 8: some of it, but like I said, I mean, it's
Speaker 8: hard to plan what you're going to do if you
Speaker 8: don't know how much money.
Speaker 4: You have to do.
Speaker 2: It unbelievable.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 1: I saw your your ex post, Steve Hilton, and and
Speaker 1: by the way, I'd love to see you become the
Speaker 1: governor of California. I worry about the demographics. Just this week,
Speaker 1: I mean within the last week week and a half,
Speaker 1: one of the co founders of Google, I believe it
Speaker 1: was Larry Page, said that he's leaving California because they're
Speaker 1: about to institute a billionaire's tax. Larry Ellison, the second
Speaker 1: richest guy in the country, the founder of Oracle, He's
Speaker 1: leaving the state. And as a matter of fact, he
Speaker 1: just bought a massive piece of land in South Florida
Speaker 1: and bought a huge hotel in South Florida, he's getting
Speaker 1: out of there, and I don't blame him. Five percent
Speaker 1: confiscation of wealth after you already paid taxes on it.
Speaker 1: I mean, who would want to stay in the inn
Speaker 1: a state that's stealing their money like that.
Speaker 4: Well, Sean, it's great to be with you and good
Speaker 4: to talk again. John. You're right, it's insane. Everything is insane.
Speaker 4: That was what was so insulting about Gavin Newsom State
Speaker 4: of the State speech yesterday. I did a rebuttal. I
Speaker 4: put it on my social media. I mean, we haven't
Speaker 4: got time to get into all of it. It was
Speaker 4: literally lie after lie after lie to cover up his
Speaker 4: failure after failure after failure. I mean, I don't even
Speaker 4: know where to start. Just on the fires. That lady
Speaker 4: you mentioned who went up to Newsome, he lied to
Speaker 4: her about who he was talking to on the phone
Speaker 4: a year ago. That's Rachel Darvish, and she was with me.
Speaker 4: We were together at a press conference that we did
Speaker 4: on the morning of Wednesday morning, the anniversary. We laid
Speaker 4: out our plans, my plans to make sure this never
Speaker 4: happens again. And it's so obvious common sense, like you say,
Speaker 4: just proper forest management, and it's worse than just that
Speaker 4: they didn't do it. It's even worse than that. I've
Speaker 4: talked to people, their residents in the Palisades, in the area,
Speaker 4: they had a state agency, the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy,
Speaker 4: finding them for doing the responsible thing. Caitlin Jenna tells
Speaker 4: me the same story, clearing brush from around their property
Speaker 4: to create defensible space. They were fined for doing it.
Speaker 4: It's unbelievable. You look at the fire department now, the
Speaker 4: leaders were getting from inside there. The fire that actually
Speaker 4: led to the Palisades Fire started a week before. It
Speaker 4: was called the Lachman Fire, and the fire department went
Speaker 4: to put it out they could see it was still smoldering.
Speaker 4: We now know that they did not send in bulldozers
Speaker 4: as they thought they should to extinguish that fire because
Speaker 4: it were worried about offending the environmental rules that were
Speaker 4: protecting the milk vetch, some little plant that they're obsessed about.
Speaker 4: It's just insane.
Speaker 1: Well, my understanding is is that the fire department wanted
Speaker 1: to to remove any remaining embers that were burning there,
Speaker 1: knowing the danger that existed, and they were pulled from
Speaker 1: the fire. They were ordered away from doing their job
Speaker 1: which they knew, which they wanted to complete. They had
Speaker 1: a desire to complete that.
Speaker 4: It's it's exactly right. And the interesting thing I spoke
Speaker 4: at that event in the Palisades that they let us
Speaker 4: burn event, the rally for the local community. Spencer Pratt
Speaker 4: was there, That's where he announced his campaign for La Mayor.
Speaker 4: I spoke there as well. But I stood there and
Speaker 4: listened for the whole about two and a half nearby
Speaker 4: three hours right, and listened to the residents. What struck me?
Speaker 4: Even if someone I've been on this audio, I've been
Speaker 4: back many times to the Palisades. I followed it in detail,
Speaker 4: the policies and all the failures that need to be corrected.
Speaker 4: Even I was stunned by two things. The fury of
Speaker 4: those people, the absolute fury and rage and contempt for
Speaker 4: Gavin Usome and Carembas because it just gets worse.
Speaker 5: The lack of.
Speaker 4: Any kind of decent response. The failure to deliver all
Speaker 4: the promises they made about streamlining and expediting. Gavin, you
Speaker 4: some a year ago said, are we going to do
Speaker 4: a Marshall plan to rebuild La total bs all of it?
Speaker 4: They are so pure, This is not a Republican area.
Speaker 4: Most people they're Democrats. They are so sick of it.
Speaker 4: And actually it is a symbol of what's been going
Speaker 4: on right across the state of California because you have
Speaker 4: people in charge who are this terrible combination of ideology
Speaker 4: far left ideology. That's where you get the environmental extremism
Speaker 4: that stops them from doing the sensible things for the forest,
Speaker 4: plus incompetence, just total governing incompetence, and then just negligence
Speaker 4: when they let all these terrible things happen. That connects
Speaker 4: to the fraud story, which is massive in California.
Speaker 5: I know.
Speaker 4: So just the whole thing is just such a colossal
Speaker 4: failure on every front, and all that Gavin Newsom has
Speaker 4: got in response is to lie about it because the
Speaker 4: truth is so damaging to him.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, my understanding is what's happened in
Speaker 1: Minnesota with this institutionalized fraud as it relates to Medicare, etc.
Speaker 1: That California's next. Is that what you're both hearing, Steve,
Speaker 1: I'll ask you first.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, look very quickly on this story when
Speaker 4: it blew up over Thanksgiving last year. I immediately said,
Speaker 4: you saw the whistleblowers in Minnesota who were being victimized
Speaker 4: in silenced by Tim Wold and the machine there. So
Speaker 4: I said, look, we need to get the whistleblowers out
Speaker 4: here in California. I set up a tip line, an
Speaker 4: anonymous light called califraud dot com. Over the last month
Speaker 4: we've had hundreds of tips which we've been following up.
Speaker 4: We're looking into the areas that they've highlighted, made some
Speaker 4: estimates around the size of budgets other reported fraud, for example,
Speaker 4: twenty four billion on homelessness, fifty five billion the Employment Department,
Speaker 4: all these things. We've added it up and we published
Speaker 4: this week our estimate of what the fraud is in California.
Speaker 4: Our number is two hundred and fifty billion. And at
Speaker 4: the same time, on Monday, I wrote to Pam Bondi,
Speaker 4: I spoke to the President about it. We've got to
Speaker 4: get an investigation going. Obviously, when I'm elected in November
Speaker 4: and planned to be the governor, along with a guy
Speaker 4: called Herb Morgan who's running for state Controller, who has
Speaker 4: the power to audit every organization receiving state money, we
Speaker 4: can get on with it in California. But in the meantime,
Speaker 4: It's great that we've known federal attention because that's what
Speaker 4: we need.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, John, I mean, i'd like to believe.
Speaker 1: I know in my heart that Steve would be a
Speaker 1: phenomenal governor in California.
Speaker 2: I know that.
Speaker 1: My question is, with mass migration out of California, is
Speaker 1: it possible?
Speaker 8: Well? I think that's why keeping this story alive is
Speaker 8: really important, not just for the victims but politically, because
Speaker 8: it really exposes the failures in democratic leadership from everything
Speaker 8: you guys have discussed, from the environmental policies to the
Speaker 8: lack of prepared faredness from the city, the empty aqueduct,
Speaker 8: the lack of water, the poor maintenance of the fire trucks,
Speaker 8: the permitting process, the democratic insurance commissioner who's let everybody
Speaker 8: dangle and speaking a fraud. You've got one hundred million
Speaker 8: dollars fire, a concert where the victims have never seen
Speaker 8: a single dime from that, and it went to all
Speaker 8: left wing causes which we just learned, like including Native
Speaker 8: American voting registration or something like that. Nobody's seen a dime.
Speaker 8: So this, this Palisades fire story shines a light on
Speaker 8: all craft failures of leadership, and I think people are
Speaker 8: seeing it, and I think the more we expose it,
Speaker 8: the better chance Steve has to come in and say,
Speaker 8: the great state of California.
Speaker 1: I hope you, Steve, like the last great hope out there,
Speaker 1: and we're going to be very active in trying to
Speaker 1: support you and make the people of California where that
Speaker 1: they do have a choice they can fix the State
Speaker 1: of California is maybe their last chance. Steve Hilton, appreciate you.
Speaker 1: John again, our deepest sympathies for what happened to you
Speaker 1: and your family and all you're going through.
Speaker 2: We appreciate both of you.
Speaker 4: Thanks, Thank you.
Speaker 3: Sean.
Speaker 1: All right, that's going to wrap things up for today.
Speaker 1: We have reporters on the ground. We expect more protests
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis tonight, which in light of the new evidence
Speaker 1: which we will show you really are not worth the
Speaker 1: time of day. But of course that won't stop these
Speaker 1: AstroTurf lunatics. Say DVR news. You'll never get from the
Speaker 1: media mob. Don't ever miss an episode nine Eastern, say
Speaker 1: a DVR Hannity, Fox News see you tonight.
Speaker 2: Have a great weekend.
Speaker 1: We'll be back here on Monday, and thank you for
Speaker 1: making this show possible,
