24
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 4: plan that we started right here on the Ringside Poltics

25
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 4: program and has been growing ever since we launched it,

26
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 4: and that is our project, keep the Republic. It was

27
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 4: inspired by the end of the Constitutional Convention when Benjamin

28
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 4: Franklin was asked what kind of government have you given?

29
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,720
Speaker 4: As he applied, Madam, a republic if you can keep it. Now, folks,

30
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 4: how do we keep a republic? It takes real tangible action.

31
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 4: We're adopting the warrior ethos, placing the mission first and

32
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 4: never accepting defeat.

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 3: And folks were never quitting.

34
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,440

Speaker 4: it's the good friends over at the Monumental Task Committee.

87
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 4: Now these are people that are working to restore history,

88
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,679
Speaker 4: protect history from those that want to tear it down.

89
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 4: You know, the left ones to tear down history, folks.

90
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 4: You know they want to destroy monuments, but not the

91
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 4: Monumental Task Committee. They work throughout the Gulf South in

92
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 4: protecting history, protecting monuments. Check them out at Monumental Task

93
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 4: dot org. They're real heroes and they do the work

94
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 4: absolutely with no compensation, just because they love American history.

95
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 3: Also, folks.

96
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 4: So we want to just tell you this economy is

97
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 4: getting better, but we still have challenges and you know,

98
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,799
Speaker 4: we've got some good things going on, but there's still

99
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 4: major issues that we have to face. And the most significant,

100
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 4: of course, is our national debt. The fact is that

101
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 4: our nation is broke dead is a house of cards.

102
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 4: It can't quickly be dismantled. So here's the strategy remains

103
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 4: the same. Diversify your savings. That's why I recommend Birch Gold.

104
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 4: So many things are out of control, out of the

105
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 4: president's control. It's important to have a safe haven for

106
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 4: your savings. That's what Birch Gold Group is all about.

107
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 4: They're going to help convert an ira or four on

108
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 4: one k into an ira.

109
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 3: In physical gold.

110
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 4: The best news is, folks, it doesn't cost you a

Speaker 4: claim your free info kit today. All right, let's check

117
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 4: out some of these hot topics that we're following here

118
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 4: on the program. And you know, what can you say

119
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 4: about yesterday? It was a SmackDown. It was Trump and

120
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 4: Vance going after an arrogant Vladimir Zelensky, our own Brian

121
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 4: Glenn asking him about his wardrobe. But shows disrespect to

122
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 4: wear a tracksuit or whatever he's wearing, usually camouflage with boots.

123
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 4: Why can't the guy wear a suit and show respect

124
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 4: for the Oval office in the country. He said it

125
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 4: was a costume. No, I think it was more like

126
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 4: the fact that he is in costume. He is an actor,

127
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 4: as we know. So I thought the President the Vice

128
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 4: president really laid it on the line and let this

129
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 4: guy know that we're tired of them coming here taking

130
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 4: our money and not saying thanks. We're tired of him

131
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,919
Speaker 4: aligning with the Democrats like he was campaigning in the

132
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 4: presidential election for the Democrats in Pennsylvania. You know, we

133
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 4: want peace. There's got to be a roadmap to peace,

134
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 4: and I think that was made clear. So right now,

135
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 4: this rare earth mineral deal is on hold, and really

136
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 4: the whole effort for a ceasefires on hold and the

137
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 4: war continues.

138
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 3: Now.

139
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 4: Zelenski today is in the UK getting a rousing welcome

140
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 4: from their Prime minister and from Europe because they've been,

141
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 4: of course, very supportive of Ukraine. What needs to happen

142
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 4: is Europe needs to do a lot more and we

143
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 4: need to do a lot less because it's in their neighborhood,

144
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 4: not ours. And we've got problems here, and let's talk

145
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 4: about some of the problems.

146
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 3: We've got them on our southern border.

147
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 4: And the good news is our new Defense secretary says

148
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 4: we're going to be standing military strikes, possibly into fentanyl

149
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 4: labs in Mexico. I don't see why we haven't done

150
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 4: it before.

151
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: This is the.

152
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: Biggest threat that we face right on our southern border.

153
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,679
Speaker 4: We have poison is coming into our country. They're killing

154
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 4: hundreds of thousands of our people. We have the capability

155
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 4: to take out all these drug cartels, all these fentanyl labs.

156
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 4: We got to do it. That is a bigger enemy

157
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 4: than al Qaeda. Mexico is getting the message. They have

158
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 4: extradited to twenty eight of their cartel bosses to the US,

159
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 4: so they're finally seeing the importance of working with the

160
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 4: United States. They're putting more of their troops on the border,

161
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 4: say they're going to do more to stop the flow

162
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: of illegal drugs and illegal aliens into the country. Mexico

163
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 4: has obviously allowed a lot of this to happen over

164
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 4: the years, as as Canada. That's why President Trump is

165
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 4: dealing with them in a tough way. That's why President

166
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 4: Trump says tariffs are going to go on because they're

167
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 4: not doing enough, and they're not doing enough, and we

168
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 4: need to maintain a foreign position with these countries. They

169
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 4: are quote unquote friends, but they're acting like enemies when

170
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 4: they allow drugs and illegal to pour into our country.

171
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 4: All Right, a big disappointment this week. Let's just be

172
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 4: a fair. We were promised Epstein files. We were promised

173
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: a big revelation from one of the big controversies that

174
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 4: we've had over the years. What's really in the Epstein files,

175
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,240
Speaker 4: what's in the Epstein black book, what's on the flight logs?

176
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 4: Where's all the information about Epstein? Well, Pampondi went on

177
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 4: TV promised that it would be.

178
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 3: Released. What we got in.

179
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 4: Some social media influencers got was something that was rehashed

180
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 4: and something that was repackaged, something that had already been

181
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 4: presented to the public years ago. So there was very little,

182
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 4: if any new information and what was released, and we

183
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 4: were promised transparency. We were promised that all these files

184
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 4: would be released, and we're still waiting for the JFK files.

185
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 4: That's supposedly on her desk too. She needs to get

186
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: it off her desk and get it into the hands

187
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 4: of the American people. We need transparenc So we say, okay,

188
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,120
Speaker 4: you need to get to the bottom of it, Bondi.

189
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 4: The AG is blaming the FBI office in New York

190
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 4: for withholding Epstein file information, withholding documents the new FBI director.

191
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 4: We don't have any time to waste. Got to get

192
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 4: to the bottom of that. All that information needs to

193
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,640
Speaker 4: be compiled and to release to the American people. We've

194
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 4: got to stop protecting criminals, stop protecting people that are

195
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 4: influential and get the information out. We need transparency and

196
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 4: truth and both Pam Bondie and the FBI director promise

197
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 4: set and we're going to keep them to their promises, folks,

198
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 4: because those are important parts.

199
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 3: Of this whole agenda.

200
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 4: Truth and transparency and the releasing of all this information

201
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 4: to the American people.

202
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 3: It's got to happen. One of the things that I

203
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 3: wanted to.

204
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 4: Share with you that came out this week is a

205
00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 4: new poll from Gallup that showed that the American people

206
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 4: now have the lowest level of trust in the media

207
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 4: in recorded history. Only thirty one percent of Americans trusts

208
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 4: the media, and I would say it's even less than

209
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:16,359
Speaker 4: that because Gallup is not exactly an unbiased polling organization.

210
00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 4: So that just shows you how the American people have

211
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,679
Speaker 4: left the mainstream media, the legacy media. They're coming over

212
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 4: to Real America's Voice, coming over to other outlets for truth,

213
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 4: and the legacy media is losing not only their prestige,

214
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 4: losing their position, they're also losing popularity with the American

215
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 4: people and for good reason. And finally, DOGE is setting

216
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,439
Speaker 4: up task forces in states around the country. Red states

217
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 4: are jumping on this and I'm proud to say that

218
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 4: we're doing it here in Louisiana. I have to give

219
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 4: myself credit. It was my idea to the governor. The

220
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 4: governor said that he would do it. And kudos to

221
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 4: our governor Jeff Landry. He has started a Louisiana based

222
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 4: DOGE and we've seen it in other states across the

223
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 4: country and this is what states need, this is what

224
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 4: our country needs. So kudos to all behind the effort

225
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 4: for government efficiency across the country.

226
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: We got a lot to get to.

227
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 4: Brief time out, will take care of some business, keep

228
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 4: it right here and brings up politics on Real America's voice.

229
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 3: I'm Jeff Career. We'll be right back.

230
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 5: Well, let me tell you a little something bounty. We're

231
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,840
Speaker 5: in it Saturday night on you to blow walal Zundsta.

232
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 3: We'll come back.

233
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 4: And very pleased to bring on our first guest. He

234
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 4: is a former US senior diplomat. He's a recipient of

235
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 4: the Distinguished Foreign Service Award. He's also a venture capitalist.

236
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 4: He's also someone who has been very close in tune

237
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 4: with what is going on in Ukraine. He's just back

238
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 4: from Kiev and also was in Washington, d C. For

239
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 4: the meeting between the President and President Zelensky. He's also

240
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 4: author of the new book Portraits of Ukraine, A Nation

241
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 4: at War. Let's welcome our special guest, Ambassador Gregory Slayton.

242
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 3: Ambassador, how are you, sir? Welcome?

243
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,559
Speaker 6: Thank you very much. It's an honor to be with you.

244
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you for joining us.

245
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 4: So President Zelensky is now as we speak, meeting with

246
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 4: the UK Prime Minister. He has, of course other meetings scheduled.

247
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 4: Has been receiving strong support from the European Union. But

248
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 4: I do want to say I think in the past

249
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 4: he has received strong support from President Trump as well.

250
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,559
Speaker 4: President Trump supplied Ukraine with javelins that were very important

251
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,559
Speaker 4: for their ability to ward off the full extent of

252
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 4: the Russian invasion. I think Barack Obama gave them blankets.

253
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 4: And then, of course, you know, we had the breakdown yesterday.

254
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 4: I think it's recoverable. I think we can get back

255
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 4: on track. I wonder if part of the problem in

256
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 4: the meeting yesterday, Ambassador, and you're very close to this,

257
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 4: you can shed some light on it. Was there possibly

258
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 4: a language issue. I mean, I know presidents Lengthy can

259
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 4: speak English, but I don't think he's one hundred percent

260
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 4: adept at all the different nuances of our language. Is

261
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 4: that possibly an issue here?

262
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 7: Definitely, you've got your finger on one of the problems.

263
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 7: Of course, Zelenski, himself trained as a lawyer, never practice,

264
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 7: was an actor and a producer, has zero experience in

265
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 7: politics or diplomacy. I give him a lot of credit

266
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 7: because he's under huge pressure and he was exhausted yesterday.

267
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 6: You can see it.

268
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 7: And certainly, as you point out, there are some words

269
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 7: that he doesn't perhaps understand. I'm not sure, but I

270
00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 7: don't think he understands there trigger words that, of of course,

271
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 7: would upset President Trump or Vice President Vance.

272
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 6: And I think that was one of the things. Yes,

273
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 6: I do.

274
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 4: So you know, the blow up occurred yesterday, and I

275
00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 4: think that you know, Art you said and bless you

276
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 4: and uh, you know. I think what President Trump and JD.

277
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 4: Vance were conveying is that, you know, we've given a

278
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 4: lot of money to Ukraine. We want to make sure

279
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 4: that the Ukrainians are thankful President Zelensky, he says he was.

280
00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: JD.

281
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 3: Van said he.

282
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 4: Needed to see more thanks and also he accused President

283
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 4: Zelensky of getting involved in the presidential election last time

284
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 4: coming to Pennsylvania taking a position there. I think Zelensky

285
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 4: probably said he didn't do it, but Jade Vance thought

286
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: it was inappropriate for him to insert himself into the election.

287
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 4: So now President Trump has obviously won a mandate and

288
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 4: he's got a position where he wants to.

289
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 3: Bring this to an end. Can we get there?

290
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 7: Ambassador Well, I would take a little bit of issue.

291
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 7: By the way, with Vance and Pennsylvania, it wasn't a

292
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 7: campaign stop.

293
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 6: It's a long story.

294
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 7: But let's get to the current question, which is the

295
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 7: exact right one. Let me ask you a question. If

296
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 7: someone came into your house, took over your kitchen and

297
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 7: maybe your bedroom, and killed a lot of your family

298
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,560
Speaker 7: and raped some of the other family members and then said, okay,

299
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:27,320
Speaker 7: let's do a ceasefire in place right now, what would

300
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 7: you say, you know, or a bigger, stronger neighbor came

301
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 7: and said, oh, you got to do a ceasefire now.

302
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 6: I think you would not be real happy for that.

303
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 7: And I understand the Ukrainian's position. Look, they want peace,

304
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 7: they're exhausted. I mean they've lost five our estimate, and

305
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 7: the book Thank you so much for mentioning, goes into

306
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 7: great detail about not just the war, but also Ukrainian

307
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 7: history and the invasion and how to get out of

308
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 7: this mess. But I think that a just and lasting

309
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,240
Speaker 7: piece is what we all need, and I appreciate that

310
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 7: President Trump is pushing on that. My concern is that

311
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 7: we don't a piece like Nixon and Kissinger. Now you

312
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 7: might be too young for this, brother, but back in

313
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 7: the seventies, Nixon and Kissinger did peace, you know, the

314
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 7: peace treaty with the North Vietnamese, which fell apart in

315
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 7: six months, and our allies in South Vietnam were completely

316
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 7: left to them.

317
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 4: So we can here's what and you make a good

318
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 4: point there, Here's what I would say. How about this,

319
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 4: how about a guy named Ronald Reagan who had successful

320
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 4: peace deals with Mikhil Gorbachev and really made some progress. Now,

321
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 4: back then that was a Soviet dictatorship and bunch of killers,

322
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 4: obviously horrible people. I don't think Vladimir Putin is any

323
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 4: worse than the communist dictators that were in place in

324
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,479
Speaker 4: the Soviet Union. And we talked to them, we had

325
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 4: agreements with them. That's why I think it's important that

326
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 4: we do talk to Russia. Now, you might disagree but

327
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 4: I think what President Trump is doing and wanting to

328
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 4: open up talks with Russia is a good thing.

329
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 3: Would you agree, I mean.

330
00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 7: I would to a point. I mean, you cannot normalize

331
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 7: as behavior like Putin has engaged in, not just here

332
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,359
Speaker 7: but many other places. I mean, remember the Wagner Group.

333
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 7: They're basically going around fomenting coup d'etas all over Africa,

334
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 7: replacing democratically elected governments. Yes, week, I agree with that,

335
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 7: But with dictatorships that are giving the Wagner Group in

336
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 7: Russia part of the mineral resources, that's just twenty first

337
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 7: century colonialism.

338
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 6: And that's just one example of many. Remember that. But

339
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,680
Speaker 6: Putin has had most of his opponents killed or jailed.

340
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 7: So let's not talk about freedom of assembly, our freedom

341
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 7: of speople.

342
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,359
Speaker 4: All right, But I would say this, the Soviet Union

343
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 4: was also going around the world invading countries, and it

344
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 4: was also they were involved in a lot of evil,

345
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 4: and we still talk to them. I would just say this,

346
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 4: when we're running out of time and we're going to

347
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 4: link to your book and encourage people to check it out.

348
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: I think we have a better chance for peace under

349
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,479
Speaker 4: President Trump than we did under Biden.

350
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 8: I totally agree.

351
00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 4: Trump is a consonant deal maker and if anyone can

352
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,640
Speaker 4: bring to a successful conclusion, it's President Trump.

353
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: Would you agree, Ambassador.

354
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 7: I do agree, and I agree for many reasons. He's

355
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 7: a negotiators, a very smart guy. But also he is

356
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:16,360
Speaker 7: a little bit unpredictable. Biden was predictable, Obama was predictable.

357
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 7: They would always back down no.

358
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 6: Matter what you did. You built new naval bases into

359
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 6: South China.

360
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 7: See you know, Baracou said, well, we don't want to

361
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 7: have a problem.

362
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 6: That's a disaster over time.

363
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:31,119
Speaker 7: And Trump has shown his first term he destroyed a

364
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 7: lot of Wagner mercenaries in Syria.

365
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 6: You remember that, a lot hundreds yunderds.

366
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 3: I do, and I yeah.

367
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 7: So we need peace through strength, and I do hope

368
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 7: and pray that President Trump is the man.

369
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,920
Speaker 4: All right, Ambassador, thank you so much. And again I

370
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 4: point to Ronald Reagan. That was his motto, Piece three strength,

371
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 4: and it worked well for Reagan. We brought about the

372
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 4: end of the evil Empire. He didn't launch us into

373
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 4: a lot of wars. Neither has Trump. And that's why

374
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 4: the man get this done is Donald Trump. I think

375
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 4: he is a consummate peacemaker. I think that's gonna be

376
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 4: the most important thing in his legacy. He said that

377
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,959
Speaker 4: yesterday at the White House. He should have received several

378
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,919
Speaker 4: Nobel Piece prizes. He should receive another one. If he

379
00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 4: can somehow end this war, he's the man.

380
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 3: To do it. Let's go to some of the clips

381
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: from yesterday.

382
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 4: But first let's start with what President Zelensky was used

383
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 4: to under Joe Biden. Let's go to clip number one.

384
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 4: All right, that was under Joe Biden. Now let's see

385
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 4: what happened yesterday. Let's go to clip number two. Is

386
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 4: they talk about war and military equipment.

387
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,719
Speaker 8: Your country is in big trouble. Can have no no, no, kay.

388
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 8: He's done a lot of talking. Your country is in

389
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 8: big trouble.

390
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 3: I know you're not winning.

391
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 8: You're not winning this. You have a damn good chance

392
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 8: of winning out, Okay, because.

393
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 5: A president we're staying in now, a country staying strong.

394
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 5: From the very beginning of the war, we've been alone,

395
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 5: and we are thankful.

396
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,120
Speaker 6: I said, thank you haven't been this cabinet.

397
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,439
Speaker 8: We gave you to the stupid president three hundred and

398
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 8: fifty billion dollars, We gave your military equipment.

399
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: You you met are.

400
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 8: Brave, but they had to use our military one of

401
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 8: our blessed. If you didn't have our military equipment, you

402
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,120
Speaker 8: didn't have our military equipment, this war would have been

403
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 8: over in two weeks.

404
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

405
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 4: Amen, Here the president talks about cards and gambling.

406
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 3: With World War three. Let's check out clip number three.

407
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 5: A lot of a lot of questions. Let's start from

408
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 5: the beginning. Sure, first of all, during the war, everybody

409
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 5: has problems, even you. But you have nice ocean and

410
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 5: don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future.

411
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 5: God bless you, God bless You're not blessed, You're not

412
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 5: the war.

413
00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 8: Don't tell us what we're gonna feel. We're trying to

414
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 8: solve a problem. Don't tell us what we're going to feel.

415
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 5: I'm not telling you because.

416
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 8: You're in no position to dictate that.

417
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:06,760
Speaker 9: Remember this, you're in.

418
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,359
Speaker 8: No position to dictate what we're going to feel.

419
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 5: We're going to feel very good, feel influence.

420
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 8: We're gonna feel very good and very strong, feel influenced.

421
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,360
Speaker 8: You're right now, not in a very good position. You've

422
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 8: allowed you to be in a free word.

423
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 6: Beginning to be right about from the very beginning of

424
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 6: the war.

425
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 8: We're not in a good position. You don't have the

426
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 8: cards right now with us. You start having cards right now.

427
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 3: You don't wear your playing card.

428
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 8: You're gambling with the lives of millions of people. You're

429
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:42,160
Speaker 8: gambling with world War three. You're gambling with World War three.

430
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 8: And what you're doing is very disrespectful to the country.

431
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 8: This country value far more than a lot of people

432
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,159
Speaker 8: said they should have.

433
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, Zelenski did not handle this well at all. You

434
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 4: just antagonized President Trump. And President Trump is speaking truth.

435
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 4: He is gambling with World War three. We need this

436
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,800
Speaker 4: to end. President Trump saying in this next clip, he's

437
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 4: in the middle. He wants to solve this, bring the

438
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 4: sides together, the ultimate peace maker. Let's check out clip

439
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 4: number four.

440
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 2: I'm in the middle. I want to solve this thing.

441
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 2: I'm for both.

442
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 8: I want to get it solved. And it's wonderful to

443
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 8: speak badly about somebody else, but.

444
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 2: I want to get it solved. If we can solve it, great.

445
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 8: If we can't solve it, they're going to have to

446
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 8: find it out, and who knows what's going to happen.

447
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 8: But I want to see it get.

448
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 4: Solved, and so do the American people. You know, we're

449
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 4: tired of pumping, you know, hundreds of billions of dollars

450
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 4: into Ukraine. We're tired of having the threat of World

451
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 4: War three. We want peace. We want this to come

452
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 4: to end. We want our president and our Congress to

453
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 4: focus on our country and the problems here. And we're

454
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 4: making great progress. We have a long way to go.

Speaker 4: Real America's Voice, the one and only Brian Glenn is

471
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 4: joining us here from beautiful mar A Lago.

472
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 9: Hey, Brian, Well, we're just down the street from there,

473
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 9: but we are in sunny South Florida. It's great to

474
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 9: be here. We left d C yesterday and it wasn't

475
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 9: quite as warm as it is right now, but here

476
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 9: in South Florida.

477
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 3: Brian.

478
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 4: I loved your questions yesterday, the first one to President

479
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 4: Trump about his legacy. And I had written a column

480
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 4: recently that I said that peace would be President Trump's

481
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 4: greatest achievement, and I was really glad to hear him

482
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 4: say that. You know, peacemaker was a title that he

483
00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 4: wanted in his legacy, and I think he's a man

484
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,479
Speaker 4: of peace. He should have received the Nobel Peace Prize,

485
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 4: Brian for what he did in his first term. And

486
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 4: what he's trying to do here is so difficult. Only

487
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 4: he can do it, Brian. That's my view.

488
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 9: Yeah, And I wanted to point that out in that

489
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 9: room in front of everyone, that he said it on

490
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 9: the campaign trail, and you and I did many rallies

491
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 9: where he said that speech about being the peacemaker. It

492
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 9: wanted to be his legacy, not only in the this war,

493
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 9: but not getting us into any other foreign wars. And

494
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 9: that was the meat of my question. I think he

495
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 9: liked the question, obviously, he did thank me. For asking it.

496
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 9: But at the end of the day, that's what that

497
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 9: meeting was scheduled to do, was to bring two countries

498
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 9: together for peace.

499
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 4: And I love the fact that he's committed to that.

500
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 4: He's not going to give up. He's gonna I think

501
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:28,840
Speaker 4: he's gonna achieve a piece here. And again I've always

502
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 4: thought he should receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and this

503
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 4: is another reason why he should. Now, your second question

504
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 4: was one that a lot of us have been asking

505
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 4: for years. Now, what's the deal with President Zlynsky not

506
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:45,280
Speaker 4: dressing appropriately for these meetings? And You've get a lot

507
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,640
Speaker 4: of hate from around the world from supporters of President's Zelensky.

508
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 4: But it was a very good question, Brian, and one

509
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,040
Speaker 4: that a lot of us have been asking. So I'm

510
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 4: glad you asked him.

511
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 9: Well, you know what, I wasn't trying to be snarky

512
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 9: with it. I was simply just wanting to know because

513
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 9: I feel like sometimes you can judge a book by

514
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 9: its cover, and the way he has approached these meetings,

515
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 9: the way he's been to Capitol Hill prior to that visit,

516
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 9: wearing the green jumpsuit, going around asking basically for money

517
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 9: and You're in the highest office of the highest government

518
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 9: in the world, and I was thinking to myself, we've

519
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 9: already sent you some say, close to three hundred million

520
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 9: dollars in aid. Can you not put on a coat

521
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 9: and tie and look presentable and least outwardly show your

522
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 9: respect for the office and for all of Americans. And

523
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 9: I think Jeff that question really reflected what he felt inside.

524
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 9: And we later found out through the dialogue with jade

525
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 9: Van's vice President Vance and President Trump that when that

526
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 9: last eight minutes of that press conference was straight fire

527
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 9: and that was pure emotion coming out of everyone. So

528
00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 9: it is about being respectable, and it is about, you know,

529
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 9: perhaps being appreciative of what the US taxpayers have given

530
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 9: you in the last three and a half four years.

531
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 4: I remember back in twenty nineteen when he met President Trump,

532
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:12,880
Speaker 4: he had a coat and tie on.

533
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 3: I mean, he had a war suit.

534
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 4: So now since the war started, he's been, you know,

535
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 4: dressing in fatigues and dressing in track suits and that

536
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 4: kind of thing. And I just think you're right, it

537
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 4: would show respect to the country that's given him three

538
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty billion or hover much we given him that. Yeah,

539
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 4: he respects the office, respects the people, is going to

540
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 4: dress appropriately. He called it a costume, which I thought

541
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 4: was ridiculous, but that's what he said.

542
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 3: So anyway, I feel for you.

543
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 11: I know you're getting a liner for yeah, yeah, yeah,

544
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 11: I've had a lot of heat from that.

545
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 2: You know.

546
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 9: Obviously, I was just going to say, that's the costume,

547
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 9: is what.

548
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 3: He calls his attire.

549
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 9: I was told in Ukrainian culture they often refer to

550
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 9: it as a costume. I don't know if he was

551
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 9: just trying to play that up, but I am getting

552
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 9: a lot of criticism for asking that question, mostly from

553
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 9: people obviously who probably hated President Trump from day one.

554
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 9: They don't like them, they didn't never will like them,

555
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 9: and they fully support the involvement in Ukraine, and they

556
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 9: course a lot of hate from overseas too. But I

557
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,719
Speaker 9: equal time, though, I have gotten a lot of support

558
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 9: for asking that question, Like people say, hey, we've all

559
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 9: been thinking about that, you know. So I did what

560
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:25,800
Speaker 9: I did, but I'm not going to say it does

561
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 9: not come with a little bit of a price.

562
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 3: Well on getting I'm.

563
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 4: Giving you media, I'm giving you nothing but support. My friend,

564
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 4: I think you're doing an amazing job. I'm so glad

565
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 4: that you're part of this coverage of President Trump and

566
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 4: so refreshing to see someone like you covering President Trump

567
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 4: as opposed to what we see from some of these

568
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,440
Speaker 4: legacy media outlets. We have got thirty seconds left. How

00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 9: was awesome.

576
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 8: Zelenski deserves everything he got from President Trump.

577
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 9: He let him know where America stands, and America stands

578
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:11,479
Speaker 9: with Trump.

579
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 2: You know, America's back.

604
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 4: going to bring on another special guest who is joining

605
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 4: us now. He is the author of the Multi Front

606
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 4: War and that's certainly something that we have been facing.

607
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,480
Speaker 4: Kennabramowitz is with us. Ken, how are you, sir? Welcome?

608
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 2: Very good, Thank you.

609
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 3: Well. Tell us a little bit about your book, Ken.

610
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 11: Well, the book actually started on nine to eleven when

611
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 11: I realized there was something major wrong, and I embarked

612
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 11: on a now a twenty five year effort to teach

613
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 11: myself national secure. And about ten years ago I realized

614
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 11: that America was at existential risk from its enemies because

615
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 11: we were fighting a multifront war, which I call World

616
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 11: War three, but we didn't know that, and so I

617
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 11: wanted to alert our government officials and our people that

618
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 11: we have to prepare for World War three, which we're

619
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 11: in right now.

620
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,959
Speaker 2: And so that's why I wrote the book.

621
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 4: So you talk about defending America from political Islam, China, Russia, pandemics,

622
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 4: and racial strife. Yeah, that we're facing a lot of

623
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 4: that right now. And how do you think President Trump

624
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 4: is doing so far in dealing with this multi front

625
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 4: war in his first month or so in office.

626
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 11: Well, Trump always does great. So you know, he starts

627
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 11: off with an A. The only question is is that

628
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 11: does it become an A plus or an A minus.

629
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,719
Speaker 11: But he's an a candidate and then a president and

630
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 11: so in domestic policy he gets an A plus. In

631
00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 11: foreign see, he's still working things out because there's been

632
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 11: bad guys places in the world. He doesn't quite have

633
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 11: his team congealed together just yet, so.

634
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 2: He doesn't get an A plus yet just yet.

635
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:23,400
Speaker 11: Uh, yesterday was a disaster for uh, for everybody. Everybody lost,

636
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 11: But uh, President it's mostly Zelensky's fault.

637
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 2: President Trump is tough and when he has.

638
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 11: Ideas and Zelensky just played them wrong, he just he

639
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 11: should have just walked in and give me the best

640
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 11: deal I can get.

641
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: Have a nice day. And so Zelensky made life very difficult.

642
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 11: But the point I'm getting to is Trump has to

643
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 11: deal with Ukraine and Russia, with Israel and Iron, Taiwan

644
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 11: and China all simultaneously. He needs one very strong person

645
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 11: under him to manage all those affairs, and then he

646
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 11: shows up on the big days.

647
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:02,000
Speaker 10: Right.

648
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I think Kenny's got a great team. I

649
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 4: like little job Marko Rubio is doing. I think Pete

650
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 4: Hexatt's going to be strong. I think JD. Vans is strong.

651
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 4: I think he's got you. Certainly compare his team to

652
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 4: Joe Biden his team in his Night and Day.

653
00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 3: I mean, we have.

654
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,600
Speaker 4: Much better competent people. So I am feeling good about

655
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 4: President Trump ultimately bringing bad peace here with Ukraine and

656
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 4: Russia and dealing with all these other hotspots. Ken, thank

657
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:31,959
Speaker 4: you for being with us, author of the multi front war.

658
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 4: We appreciated very much. Speaking of that meeting with Zelenski,

659
00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 4: Lindsey Graham had some comments. Now, Lindsey Graham has been

660
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:44,319
Speaker 4: a guy who's been very very pro Zolensky. Here's what

661
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 4: he had to say. Let's check out clip number five.

662
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 10: Complete utter disaster. I've been to Ukraine eight or nine

663
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 10: times since the war started. I understand the consequences of

664
00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 10: Putin's actions against Ukraine. I appreciate what the Ukrainian people

665
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 10: have done. They fought like tigers. At the end of

666
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,919
Speaker 10: the day, I was hoping that this minerals deal, which

667
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 10: would be transformative in the relationship, would go over well.

668
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 10: I talked to Zelenski this morning. Don't take the bait.

669
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 10: President Trump was in a very good mood last night.

670
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 10: Somebody asked me, am I embarrassed about Trump. I have

671
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:25,920
Speaker 10: never been more proud of the president.

672
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 9: I was very.

673
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 10: Proud of JD. Men's standing up for our country. We

674
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,080
Speaker 10: want to be helpful. When I saw in the Oval

675
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,399
Speaker 10: office was disrespectful and I don't know if we can

676
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 10: ever do business with Zelenski again.

677
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 3: Wow.

678
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,800
Speaker 4: I have to say, for once I agree with Lindsey Graham.

679
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 3: Isn't that amazing? How about that? Folks?

680
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 4: All right, a lot more to get to you. We

681
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 4: got some more great guests going to join us. Got

682
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 4: our memes of the week. We're gonna be sharing with

683
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 4: you a whole lot more conyway right here on ringside

684
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 4: in Real America's voice.

685
00:35:58,600 --> 00:35:59,799
Speaker 3: We'll be right back.

686
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:25,359
Speaker 11: All right.

687
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,280
Speaker 4: We're gonna be talking about education in this last segment

688
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 4: with two great guests. We're gonna start with a doctor

689
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 4: Stanley Ridgeley. He's author of DEI Exposed how the biggest

690
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 4: con of the century almost toppled higher education.

691
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,720
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, boy, that's the truth.

692
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 5: Uh.

693
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,000
Speaker 3: Stan Ridgeley is with us. Stan how are you, sir? Welcome.

694
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:44,760
Speaker 2: I'm doing great.

695
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,280
Speaker 12: I'm expatic giving the events of the last couple of weeks,

696
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 12: and I'm optimistic. So I have a good message to

697
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:52,840
Speaker 12: share with your audience today.

698
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 4: Yes, so you talk about you talk about de I

699
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 4: being the big con, and how do we get into

700
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 4: this mess with DEI?

701
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 3: What's the history of that, Stan Well, d.

702
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,439
Speaker 12: I's been with us for a very long time, too long,

703
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 12: and they've always been scratching at the door of higher education.

704
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 12: And I'm here to speak about higher education explicitly, not

705
00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 12: the corporate world. But they've been scratching at the door

706
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:18,080
Speaker 12: trying to get access to student to our students, to

707
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 12: our faculty, to our staff, to train them in the

708
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 12: doctrine of dei, which is certainly not what is portrayed

709
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 12: to be.

710
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 2: And I think that.

711
00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,239
Speaker 12: The summer of twenty twenty, with the unfortunate death of

712
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 12: a criminal in the streets of Minneapolis, opened the gates

713
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 12: to the university. It says University of presidents were desperate

714
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 12: to keep the disorder of the summer of twenty twenty

715
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 12: off the campuses, and they admitted to guilt. They being

716
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 12: the presidents, admitted to this guilt, and they accepted the

717
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 12: con story of the grifters who were coming onto the campus.

718
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 12: And that con story is this that America is inherently racist.

719
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 12: It is riven with institutional racism, is with white supremacy culture,

720
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 12: and students and faculty need to understand that they are

721
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 12: part of the problem. And our campuses are riven with

722
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 12: rampant racism.

723
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 2: That's their word.

724
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:13,960
Speaker 6: That's a good story.

725
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think that's a good overview. Just to

726
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 4: let our viewers know. DEI siphon funds into social engineering programs,

727
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,879
Speaker 4: suckered and swindled people at fueled anti semitism at rob

728
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 4: students of fair treatment, took away freedom of speech, fired

729
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,280
Speaker 4: people that should have been fired, kept people off campus

730
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 4: that should have been kept off. So, as standpointed out,

731
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 4: I think a lot of it did really blow up

732
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 4: after the George Floyd incident. And these grifters, how much

733
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 4: money did they make off with? I mean, stand are

734
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 4: they still on these campuses?

735
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 2: Oh, they certainly are.

736
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 12: And the industry is a nine billion dollar industry every year.

737
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 12: And I can point to the University of Michigan, which

738
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 12: is gets picked on a lot with good reason.

739
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 6: They've spent a quarter of a billion dollars on their own.

740
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:12,359
Speaker 12: DEI program since twenty sixteen, with no indication that they've

741
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 12: had any kind of positive effect at all. The current

742
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 12: DEI mandarin makes her name is Tabia Chavou, and she

743
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 12: makes four hundred and seventeen thousand dollars a year at Berkeley.

744
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 12: The Dania Maptos makes three hundred and thirty one thousand

745
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:32,160
Speaker 12: dollars a year. And so this is the magnitude of

746
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 12: the money that's being swindled out of our universities, and

747
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 12: eventually it comes from from tuition from students, it comes

748
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 12: from funding from the federal government, comes from funding from

749
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 12: state coffers.

750
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 6: And it's a wonderful scam if you're a part of it.

751
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,160
Speaker 12: It's a gravy train that's, unfortunately for them, is coming

752
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:50,759
Speaker 12: to an end.

753
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 2: It's coming to an end.

754
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's what I want to talk about, bringing

755
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 4: this to an end so we can save higher education.

756
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 4: I know people that have kids now that aren't really

757
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 4: sending their kids to colleges and universities because of all

758
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 4: of this toxic indoctrination that they have seen, and their

759
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 4: kids who just want to get right out into the workforce.

760
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,000
Speaker 4: They don't want to be saddled with all this debt,

761
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,080
Speaker 4: they don't want to be exposed to all this indoctrination,

762
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 4: so they're going right into the workforce.

763
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 3: And how are all.

764
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:26,359
Speaker 4: These college and the universities gonna stay afloat if they

765
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,240
Speaker 4: don't have the students going forward?

766
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,680
Speaker 3: Does stand well?

767
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 12: Jeff, I'm ecstatic optimistic because of what's happened with the

768
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 12: deadline of the universities given to the universities by the President.

769
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:37,840
Speaker 2: Of the United States.

770
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,279
Speaker 12: That ended yesterday, and that deadline was to end your

771
00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 12: DEI programs, to end illegal discrimination on your campuses, and

772
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 12: end the violation of constitutional protections.

773
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: And that came to an end yesterday.

774
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 12: And if schools are do not comply with that, then

775
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 12: they will face an Office of Civil Rights investigation, which

776
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 12: no one really wants. So for student, for parents and

777
00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 12: students who are considering colleges and saying, you know, maybe

778
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 12: that's not what I want to do.

779
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: I think the future is.

780
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 12: Bright for American universities as we begin to regain the

781
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,719
Speaker 12: stature and regain the excellence that have always been characteristics

782
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 12: of our universities. And so I know it's still a

783
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 12: healty price tag, and I am so sympathetic and empathetic

784
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:21,280
Speaker 12: with parents.

785
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 6: Price tag, yeah right.

786
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 3: And I know that.

787
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,919
Speaker 4: And Stan, let me just say, for one great work,

788
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 4: thank you so much for joining us, and we appreciate

789
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 4: your insights on a very important topic. But I only

790
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 4: to say I can understand why parents would think twice

791
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 4: ninety thousand dollars a year, you know, sending their kids

792
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 4: to an environment like let's say, Dan here at Tulane,

793
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 4: where you've been in the past having teachers like James Carville,

794
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 4: and they wanted to bring in Hunter Biden as an instructor.

795
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 4: All right, so let's keep on the topic of education.

796
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 3: And we're very pleased to have with us a reporter.

797
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 4: Education policy analyst, Francis Fluoresca is with us.

798
00:41:58,040 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 3: Hey, Francis, how are you welcome.

799
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 6: I'm doing well.

800
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 13: Thanks for having me.

801
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 4: So we just started a discussion about higher education and

802
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 4: what President Trump is doing. You've been featured in a

803
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 4: lot of different publications, including the Washington Examiner, and you've

804
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 4: been all over the airwaves talking about these issues working

805
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,480
Speaker 4: in public policy. Give us some I know you've advocated

806
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 4: for school choice and the movement of government barriers and

807
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 4: legislatures all over the country. Give us your snapshot of

808
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 4: how the president is doing and his team dealing with

809
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,520
Speaker 4: these educational issues so far in his second term.

810
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,160
Speaker 13: So far, we've been seeing a lot going on in

811
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 13: the Department of Education right now, including that portal where

812
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 13: families can start to report DEI in schools. And of course,

813
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 13: on Monday, Linda McMahon, who is hopefully going to be

814
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 13: the next and last Apartment of Education Secretary, we'll have

815
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 13: that final confirmation vote as the next Education secretary. So

816
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,560
Speaker 13: it's I'd be really cool to see what happens when

817
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 13: that happens. But we've already been seeing so much work

818
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 13: with the current Department of Education right now.

819
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 4: How much waste is there in the Department of Education, Francis.

820
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 13: Look, we saw millions of dollars going to DEI programs

821
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 13: all over the country when it comes to education, and

822
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 13: we've had Doge and Elon Musk come in to start

823
00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 13: cutting that right now. I think in the fiscal year

824
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 13: twenty twenty four last year, we had two hundred and

825
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 13: sixty eight billion dollars for expenditures for the Department of Education.

826
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 13: So they have so much money, and where's that going

827
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,120
Speaker 13: at this point? Is it really going to helping students?

828
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 13: Because what do they do? They take money from us,

829
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 13: they burn a lot of it in the bureaucracy as

830
00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 13: well as waste a lot of it in the federal government,

831
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 13: and then send it back with to states with all

832
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 13: these strings attached.

833
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 2: Insist.

834
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 4: President Trump talks a lot about the United States used

835
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,280
Speaker 4: to be near the top of the rankings in education

836
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 4: across the world.

837
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 3: He said, now we're fortieth at the bottom.

838
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,759
Speaker 4: Is President Trump right when he says that, And how

839
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,719
Speaker 4: did we get there, Francis.

840
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,839
Speaker 13: The Department of Education as we know it today was

841
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 13: created in nineteen seventy nine by former President Jimmy Carter,

842
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 13: and ever since then, our test scores and academic standards

843
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,280
Speaker 13: haven't been doing as well because, as we know, every

844
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,280
Speaker 13: single state is different and they all have different needs

845
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 13: when it comes to education. Look at the test scores

846
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,960
Speaker 13: of right now. We just have them released a few

847
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 13: weeks ago, and it's not any better than it was

848
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,359
Speaker 13: in the past. In fact, some of the scores have

849
00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 13: gotten worse, especially in math and reading, just those basic

850
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,400
Speaker 13: core principles we need in.

851
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 6: Our education system.

852
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 13: And they're not even close to pre pandemic levels either.

853
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,839
Speaker 6: So we haven't improved. So what do we do.

854
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 13: We need to transform education to return it back to

855
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 13: the states so they have more power and how they

856
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,919
Speaker 13: can control how education works for each state.

857
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 4: I completely agree, France is well done. Thank you so

858
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:19,279
Speaker 4: much for joining us, and let's get this department shut down.

859
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 4: Let's get the money going back to the state level

860
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 4: where people can spend it wisely and make sure it

861
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 4: gets to the children. And there's not many bureaucrats siphoning

862
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,320
Speaker 4: all these dollars and wasting our tax money.

863
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,080
Speaker 3: So that is the goal.

864
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 4: All right, Francis, appreciate it very much. With some great

865
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 4: guest today. All right now it's time for one of
