I honestly 11 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: it was let me play a moment that really just 12 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: got to me and got to everybody that was there, 13 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: and I'm sure got to the entire country, because the 14 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:45,720 Speaker 2: whole country was watching where she shares. It was on 15 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 2: what would have been his thirty second birthday. It's pretty 16 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 2: unbelievable to think of, you know, him not being here, 17 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 2: and him being so young, and him just really in 18 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: the prime of his life. It's kind of like the 19 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: age that I started for crying out loud, I started 20 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 2: a little bit earlier. But and how much he had 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 2: to offer, and how talented and gifted he was certainly 22 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: wisdom beyond his years. I can say that, and the 23 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: same with Erica, but this was this was heartbreaking. 24 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: Listen. 25 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 3: I asked our daughter what she would like to say 26 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 3: to Daddy for his birthday. Excuse me, she said, happy birthday, Daddy. 27 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 3: I want to give you a stuffed animal. I want 28 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 3: you to eat a cupcake with ice cream, and I 29 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: want you to go have a birthday surprise. 30 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: I love you, That's what she said. 31 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: I'm mean the reality is is that now she must 32 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 2: raise these two beautiful children, precious children. 33 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: I will say this. 34 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: It does give me comfort knowing I had I had 35 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 2: Charlie's chief of staff, the pastor that married him on 36 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: last night. He did surround himself with amazing people that 37 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: had incredible values. 38 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: His faith is way. 39 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: More important to him, was more important to him, and 40 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 2: instilling that in young people was his passion in life. 41 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: And and they they worked very hard at at for him. 42 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 2: He would he would be so inquisitive. He wanted answers 43 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: to be able to give these kids when he'd do 44 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 2: these open mic moments with them in these hostile environments 45 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: on college campuses. You know, and I bet a lot 46 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 2: of these kids never heard or you know, many people 47 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 2: speaking out, certainly not in the classroom, on issues involving 48 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: their lives and what their life can be. And you know, 49 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: injecting hook up culture for example. I mean, it's so 50 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: commonplace today you just kind of take it for granted 51 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 2: and that's just the way things are. But does it 52 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 2: have to really be that way? You know, I'll use 53 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: my words, not his, but you know, really going to 54 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 2: frat parties and being the kid throwing up at the 55 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: end of the night and the bushes outside, is that 56 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 2: the life you want to live? And you know how 57 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: pervasive drug use is among young people today, and hearing 58 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 2: that maybe you should get back to church and believe 59 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: in God and find a higher purpose and the purpose 60 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: for which you were created. And he was successful, and 61 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: even in the aftermath of his assassination, that message still 62 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: resonates and is resonating around the country, and I'm hearing 63 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: it from people all over the place. Linda, you'll find 64 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 2: this interesting. You know, I always kid around on the program. 65 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 2: How you know my daughter has never been particularly that 66 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: interested in what her dad does for a living. Was 67 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 2: just a couple of years ago, I said, well, what 68 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: time's my radio show on? And she didn't get the 69 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: right to time. Right, He goes, oops, I mean, you know, 70 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: I mean, now she's he watched the entire thing yesterday, 71 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: and she said, why didn't you take me? I didn't 72 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: know she wanted to come. I would have gladly taken her, 73 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 2: and uh and then telling me that she was crying 74 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: and and how this had deeply impacted her. And you know, 75 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 2: my son had only wanted to meet two people of 76 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 2: all the people I've interviewed over all these years. He 77 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 2: wanted to meet President Trump and he wanted to meet 78 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk and I was able to arrange both and so. 79 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: And then this poll comes out today. I thought this 80 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 2: was pretty amazing. It was actually on Fox News where 81 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: I saw it, stunning data revealing a surge in Christianity 82 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 2: in the United States. Look at this forty one point 83 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 2: six percent in terms of an increase in Bible sales. 84 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: Maybe we call it the work effect. I don't know, 85 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: seems like it to me. 86 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: App downloads of the Bible up a whopping seventy nine 87 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 2: point five percent, Christian music streaming plus fifty percent. I mean, 88 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 2: I don't talk about it a lot, but you know, 89 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: I often at night will go to YouTube and I'll watch. 90 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 2: I think some of the best music out there is 91 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: my buddy Michael W. Smith is one one concert of 92 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 2: his that stands above all else to me, and I've 93 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 2: told him this personally is the bridgestone Rena Michael W. 94 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: Smith twenty eighteen. And I probably see ce Winans as 95 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: part of it. He's got a whole band accompanying him, 96 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: and you watch the crowd, and I can't I get 97 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 2: something out of watching that every time that I see it. 98 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 2: I love cc Winan. I think she's one of the 99 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 2: as one of the most angelic, amazing voices of all time. 100 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 1: And I love of other. 101 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: Christian singers too many, too numerous to name it this point. 102 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 2: And I you know, i'd love, for example, Hillsong. I 103 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 2: know they had their controversy in New York, but that 104 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 2: does not take away from the profound and deep message 105 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 2: in their music. And I love Christian contemporary music. It's probably, 106 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: I guess now it's really my number one format that 107 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: I'm that I like and what I listened to more 108 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 2: than any other genre of music. I know, Linda, you're 109 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: into it as well. Anyone who do use your favorite 110 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: you love you have a lot of. 111 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: People Uh, I'm a pretty big fan of Lauren Daegel. 112 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: I'm really into Uh. 113 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 2: We saw Lauren Diegel in concert. Oh really, I didn't 114 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 2: tell you that I got I was able to go 115 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 2: online and buy front row seat just like came about. 116 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. 117 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: Uh, it was here in my free state of Florida, 118 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: and I had three other people with me, and I 119 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: guess somebody on our team spotted me. And then I 120 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 2: got to go backstage and meet her. I have pictures 121 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 2: with her and got to's. 122 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: Pretty amazing talk to her. She's incredible, very special. Her 123 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: voice is unbelievable. Yeah, and it's pretty wild. 124 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of that song Rescue. And you know, look, 125 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: you know, people ask me all the time, how have 126 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 2: you survived as long in this business and is competitive 127 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: as it is? And people come and people go and 128 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: all this stuff. And I really credit two things, and 129 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: one is certainly my parents and the work ethic that 130 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 2: they instilled in me from a young kid. And I 131 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: know my kids roll their eyes. If I start listing 132 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: every job I've had in my life and that I 133 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 2: started out without any money in my life, nobody wants 134 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 2: to hear it anymore. I got it I've heard you 135 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: loud and clear. I won't go over it, but it did. 136 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: It had a profound impact on me. And the other 137 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 2: thing that had a profound impact on me is all 138 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 2: those years that my parents dragged me to church and 139 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 2: twelve years of Catholic school got to me and I 140 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 2: realized that I have a conscience and a soul. And 141 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: if if I snap at Linda, you know, even I'm 142 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 2: using you as an example, you know, usually I'll say 143 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. You know, 144 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 2: just little things bother me. My conscience is alive and 145 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 2: well in me. And what is a conscience. A conscience 146 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: is an awareness something within you let you know you're 147 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 2: being a jerk and you're wrong. So if there's two 148 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,239 Speaker 2: things that have kind of protected me in my life, 149 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 2: I would argue those are the two things. And I 150 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: would even then take it another step and say that, 151 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 2: you know, if I was going to write two more books, 152 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 2: one would be an Undeserved Life and the second one 153 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 2: would be Everything I wanted to tell you, but new 154 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 2: would get me fired. Everyone likes the title to that, 155 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: and they're like, what did you want to say that 156 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: you didn't say? Why don't you just have the courage 157 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: to say it. But I would say, in my mind 158 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: that is the Charlie Kirk effect. And you know, to 159 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: the extent we don't talk probably enough, we were so 160 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: immersed in the day to day political comings and goings, 161 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 2: because if you don't live in a free country, none 162 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: of this is possible. So that is a prerequisite in 163 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: my mind why my passions politics. But at the end 164 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: of the day, you know, all of us, I believe, 165 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: you know, we all have a unique fingerprint. We all 166 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: were created by the same God. I believe that my 167 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 2: entire life. That's why I can't stand people that are racist, 168 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. I believe that the word education 169 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: the Latin that I studied in high school at a seminary, 170 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 2: is so relative. And I've used this term a lot 171 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 2: because I think it's so impactful. And the root word 172 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 2: of education is a ducrede to bring forth from within 173 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: that that's predicated on a belief that God put in 174 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 2: every every human soul potential. I believe in human potential. 175 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 2: I believe in the individual. I believe the best system 176 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 2: of governance that that allows for that potential to rise 177 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: to the top is is liberty and freedom and capitalism. 178 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 2: That's what I believe the great story of successive America. 179 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 2: It's based on liberty and freedom, and that liberty and 180 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 2: freedom allows you to be the person that God created 181 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 2: you to be. Certainly, our framers and our founders understood 182 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 2: the Judeo Christian principles as a as a foundational principle 183 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: to make this country, allow this country to be great. 184 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: As imperfect as they were, they believe we were endowed 185 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: by a creator, a God, and that this country, you know, 186 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 2: is not You know that that rights come from God, 187 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 2: not from government. These are not these are not cliches, 188 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: these are not phrases. These are deeply held beliefs and 189 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: principles that should guide our country in the years, in 190 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 2: the decades to come, knowing that every generation which is 191 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: one generation away freedom, is one generation away from extinction. 192 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: As Ronald Reagan told us. 193 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: And you know, my advice to people, and people ask 194 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 2: me all the time about, well, what advice do you 195 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: have for me? Is find whatever you love and find 196 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: a way to make money at it. And it doesn't 197 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 2: matter what you do. But the other thing you have 198 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 2: to do is you have to understand that you're not 199 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: here to be served. I think that we are here 200 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: to find our purpose and serve other people while you're 201 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: also building your own life. You know, people create goods 202 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 2: and services that others want, need and desire. That's capitalism. 203 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: And while you're doing it, you're helping others and it 204 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: benefits you. It's a win win, and it's the perfect system. 205 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 2: You give everybody everything. Why is anybody ever going to 206 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: try to reach their true potential? 207 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: Then not? 208 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: And that's the whole point. That's why socialism and I 209 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: wrote an whole chapter and live free or die in 210 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 2: every form manifestation, you know, fails. That's why when people 211 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: trust the government, I can't understand it for the life 212 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: of me, because the government doesn't do many things well 213 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: at all. How's your school system, How's law and order? 214 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: You know, how's the government doing with their managing of 215 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: your money? Social security, medicate all on the verge of 216 00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 2: bankruptcy and solvency in spite of promises, and then the 217 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: left promises more and more government and what you know, 218 00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: how did the Obamacare work out? Didn't work out too well? 219 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: And so I want everyone to, you know, live in freedom, 220 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: and that gives you the window of opportunity. And it 221 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: doesn't matter what age you are. You know, we're now 222 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 2: on the precipice. And I say this to you, my audience, 223 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 2: because you've been so good to me and gave me 224 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 2: a life I never dreamed of. And that is I 225 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 2: just say to all of you that I believe foundationally, 226 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 2: we have now set this country up for what the 227 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 2: president is called a golden age. You know, when Reagan 228 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: cut taxes, it was the longest period of peacetime economic 229 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: growth in history, dropped the top marginal rates from seventy 230 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: to twenty eight percent. Donald Trump just gave us the 231 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 2: largest tax cuts in history. That means that the economy 232 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: is going to grow. Interest rates are going to go down. 233 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: You know, sale of pre existing homes will kick back in, 234 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 2: home building will kick back in. Never before in our 235 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 2: history has any one president I think in all the 236 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: years Biden was in office and Obama's in office, maybe 237 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 2: one one, you know, maybe one hundred billion in committed investments. 238 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is he claimed eighteen trillion in invested money 239 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 2: in the next four years for manufacturing semiconductors and pharmaceuticals 240 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 2: and all sorts of other things. All of this is 241 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: opportunity for you, energy dominance, freeing up our energy sector. 242 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: All of these are going to represent opportunities. The only 243 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 2: thing that might get in the way of you taking 244 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 2: your life to the next level is any self imposed limitation. 245 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 1: You know. 246 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 2: For example, I know people that would be like, oh, 247 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: I'm never leaving my hometown. Well, okay, that means either 248 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: the job comes to your hometown or you would miss 249 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 2: out on an opportunity to quadruple your salary and start 250 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: a new career, especially young people that might be listening 251 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: to the show. You know, dream big, don't dream small, 252 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: and take chances. Look down, you're on the high board. 253 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 2: It's scary, jump and and do so with faith and 254 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: confidence that you know you're designed to jump. Is God 255 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: put you on that board for a reason, and that 256 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 2: things will come out of it that you never imagined 257 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 2: or dreamed of. When I first got behind a radio 258 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: microphone and I loved it, you know, I jumped and 259 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,479 Speaker 2: jumped and jumped and kept jumping, and you know, and 260 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: it got bigger than I ever imagined. And I think 261 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 2: that is the personification of you know, finding your God 262 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 2: given whatever talent. I'm not saying I'm talented I'm just 263 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: saying that finding what you love and you know, sharing 264 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 2: it with others and serving others. Look at them, look 265 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: at I'll go through this on the other side. But 266 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 2: think of all the every person that serves you in 267 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 2: a restaurant. Okay, they're all serving you. You're We're not 268 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 2: designed to sit back as kings in this life, in 269 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: my view, So we have a lot going on in 270 00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 2: terms of news today. 271 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: I'm why all of it. 272 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 2: The Schumer shut down continues, the radicalism by Governor Pritzker. 273 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: You know, I look at this, this idiot. I can't 274 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 2: believe that this is the state of the Democratic Party. 275 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: You know, politically, I'd like to say it's great for 276 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 2: the Republicans, and it is the radicalization of the Democratic Party. 277 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 2: And when I was in DCS today, I talked to 278 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 2: a lot of people about this. 279 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: They'd never seen anything like it in their life. 280 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 2: And I actually, I think I'm able to pinpoint the 281 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: canary and the coal mine on this. 282 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: And I believe it was Joe Lieberman. 283 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 2: And remember Joe Lieberman, vice presidential candidate Democratic Party ran 284 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: for office. 285 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: What are you wrong with Al Gore? And what year 286 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: was that? Ninety two? Whatever? 287 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry. Two thousand, yeah, two thousand so, and 288 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 2: then he runs in Connecticut. I mean he was not 289 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 2: he was not liberal enough for Connecticut. Now on issues 290 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 2: involving national security and defense and standing up against radical Islamis, 291 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 2: he was phenomenal. He was great, He was steadfast, he 292 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 2: was strong. He believed in America's strength, he believed in 293 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: america defense. He believed America out of purpose and not 294 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 2: that we want to fight wars. It's just we need 295 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 2: to understand there's a lot of evil in the world, 296 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 2: and we got to protect ourselves and protect our freedoms 297 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: and our liberties. And I think that's why Donald Trump's great, 298 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 2: greatest legacy will be the Golden Dome eventually one day. 299 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 2: And anyway, he gets primaried and loses the Democratic primary 300 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 2: in the state of Connecticut. Unbelievable, and then he runs 301 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: as an independent. And he's running as an independent. He's 302 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 2: always been a friend of the show. He used to 303 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 2: come on the show. He passed since passed away. His 304 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: wife Adasa, one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. 305 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: And he used to come on this show regularly. And 306 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 2: you know, I used to kid around with him and 307 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 2: we talk about what we agreed agreed with and what 308 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 2: we disagreed with. 309 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: You know, you could agree with him and not be 310 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 1: so disagreeable. 311 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 2: He would be one of the Democrats that would be 312 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 2: outspoken against this Nazi, fascist racist Hitler Stalin Mussolini comparison crap. 313 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: He would be against it anyway. So he's running as 314 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 2: an independent. And I always liked him, and I would 315 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 2: say that on radio and TV. Linda, you remember you 316 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: were with me back in the day I was, And 317 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 2: then you remember the story because I got a call 318 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 2: from Joe Lieberman. He said in his very soft spoken way, 319 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 2: he was a kind of soft spoken guy, very kind, 320 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: very generous, that could never raise his voice kind of guy. 321 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 1: And no, and he was even when he argued he 322 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 1: was gentle. He's like, well he always did that, that 323 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: was his thing. 324 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 4: WOA. 325 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 1: And he always came on the show, always very kind 326 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: with his time. 327 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,560 Speaker 2: Right all right, and his family is terrific. So he 328 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 2: calls me one day out of the blue or writes me, 329 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 2: and then I call him whatever however that worked out, 330 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 2: and I said, uh, hey. 331 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: Sena, how are you.

Would you like me to 344 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 2: attack you? 345 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: It would? Would that help you out more? 346 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 2: And it forever became a joke with us, and then 347 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: he ended up winning in the general election as an 348 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 2: independent in Connecticut. 349 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: But that was the tip of the iceberg. 350 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 2: That was the tip of the spear, That was the 351 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 2: canary in the coal mine. That was the moment the 352 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 2: Democratic Party began this process of now going off the rails, 353 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: you know, culminating and where Chucky Schumer is with the 354 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: Schumer shutdown, which is, you know, he has to give 355 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 2: in to the radicals that run his party, and he 356 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 2: is giving into them. And you know, I was having 357 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 2: this discussion, I explained, I was talking to a bunch 358 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: of senators last night, I had an opportunity to speak 359 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,360 Speaker 2: to them and. 360 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: I told them that story. 361 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,199 Speaker 2: They were they loved that story and off the rails 362 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 2: and I talked to even more quote moderate Republicans and 363 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 2: they couldn't believe the story. 364 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: And they can't. 365 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: Believe what they're dealing with in the US Senate and 366 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: how Chuck Schumer is just unavailable to even have a 367 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 2: reasonable discussion with at this point when meanwhile, he, as 368 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 2: we've played over and over again, he spent his entire 369 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: career talking out against against shutting down the government. Pretty 370 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 2: fascinating little detail that Axios picked up. We had picked 371 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 2: up on it as well, that Democrats in Congress say 372 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 2: President Trump's methods for paying the military and funding food 373 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 2: stamps for vulnerable communities are clearly illegal, but they're not 374 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 2: going to fight it, you know, because the President is 375 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: planning to divert eight billion dollars in previously appropriated funds 376 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 2: for the military for military research and development to pay 377 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 2: the troops. As we now are at the point they're 378 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,399 Speaker 2: no longer going to be getting checks now, they can't 379 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 2: do a thing until this what is this called the 380 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 2: Kings No King's rally that they're having around the country, 381 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 2: all over the country on Saturday, by the way, wherever 382 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,200 Speaker 2: you live, find out where these rallies are and stay 383 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 2: and keep your family as far away as possible. That 384 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 2: is my tip of the week. Don't go to those rallies. 385 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: Don't don't have anything to do with it. Now, if 386 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 2: you want to report on it, just know you're putting 387 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,199 Speaker 2: yourself into a hostile area. And God only knows what 388 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: some of these these lunatics on the left are capable of. 389 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 2: We said, what was the guy's name, Nick Soto nor 390 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 2: Nick Sorter, and we had him on TV. I've really 391 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 2: admired this guy, and he's very popular on social media. 392 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: And he kept going back. They had one hundred nights 393 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 2: of protests in Portland, and night after night. The one 394 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: night that he he had already been assaulted by these 395 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 2: lunatics and he walks back in the next night. This guy, 396 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 2: God bless him. He's got an American flag with him. 397 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 2: God forbid you bring an American flag, you know, to 398 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 2: one of these, you know, pro Antifa, you know anti 399 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 2: ice protests. Got to help you, and but he did 400 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 2: it anyway. Then he ended up getting arrested the charges 401 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: obviously dropped. He was a victim in this case, but 402 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 2: I give a lot of oh hang on. The President 403 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 2: is now speaking from the Oval Office, and the FBI 404 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 2: directors there as well. 405 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 5: Let's listen in we house, and that's really what's happened, 406 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 5: and getting tremendous reviews, and we appreciate it, but we're 407 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 5: here for a different reason. It's called Operation Summer Heat, 408 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 5: which is an appropriate term in light of what we're doing. 409 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 5: And early yesterday morning, I returned from the Middle East 410 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 5: where we celebrated a historic agreement in years of suffering 411 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 5: and conflict. Amazing. Every country came together, I mean even 412 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 5: the enemies came out and totally endorsed it. Everybody. 413 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like it. 414 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 5: Nobody's seen anything like it. And just as we are 415 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,439 Speaker 5: forging peace and stability abroad, we're also restoring peace and 416 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 5: safety and stability at home. And you see that in Washington, 417 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 5: d c. Maybe better than any place, because we got 418 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 5: there and within twelve days it was very good, and 419 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 5: within thirty days it's been as safe as any city 420 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 5: in the country. It's been great. Took out seventeen hundred people, 421 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 5: got them out. These are career criminals in many cases, 422 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 5: and people that shouldn't have been allowed in by the 423 00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 5: Biden administration. Historically, the summer months have been a time 424 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 5: when violent crime sore, as you know, but not under 425 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 5: President Trump today also of a sweeping law enforcement effort 426 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 5: known as Operation Summer Heat. We were in many cities 427 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 5: that people didn't know about. We kept it a little quiet, 428 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 5: and it had a big impact. And you'll hear that 429 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 5: in a second. But over the past few months, FBI 430 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 5: offices in all fifty states made crushing violent crime a 431 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 5: top enforcement priority. That's what they did, rounding up and 432 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 5: arresting thousands of the most violent and dangerous criminals. And 433 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 5: these are among the most dangerous and violent people in 434 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 5: the world. They were allowed in many cases, not in 435 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 5: all cases, but in many cases they were allowed in 436 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 5: by a very foolish, actually stupid open border policy. Just 437 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 5: anybody could have come in. They emptied out their jails, 438 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 5: their prisons, their mental institutions, they emptied them into our country. 439 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 5: And the people behind me have done an incredible job 440 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 5: because if we didn't have that administration, it would have 441 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 5: been so much easier. They allowed millions of people in 442 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 5: this country that shouldn't have been allowed, including over eleven 443 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 5: thousand murderers, half of whom murdered more than one person, 444 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 5: and many of them are gone now or they're put 445 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 5: in prison because we don't want to have them come back, 446 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 5: so we literally put them in our prison, which we 447 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 5: don't want to do, but we bring them back to 448 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 5: their countries working with state and local partners. The FBI 449 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 5: arrested over eight thousand violent criminals during the course of 450 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 5: this period in major cities like in New Orleans Nashville. 451 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 5: We saw a two hundred and fifty percent increase in 452 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 5: arrests we got, and we really went after the bad ones. 453 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 5: These include seven hundred and twenty five individuals wanted for 454 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:40,119 Speaker 5: violent crimes against children and murderers. These arrests are in 455 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 5: addition to the work of our historic federal task forces 456 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,959 Speaker 5: that make DC safe. Task force has been unbelievable. I mean, 457 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 5: the job they've done, it's incredible, and it's been so 458 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 5: nice because so many people they're going out to dinner 459 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 5: and they're having dinners they wouldn't. They didn't go out 460 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 5: for four years, and now they're going out three times 461 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 5: a week. Restaurants are opening, restaurants are full, and usually 462 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 5: that means a lot of good things. But restaurants that 463 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,360 Speaker 5: were closed they're now opening up, and everybody's happy. It's 464 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 5: nobody's ever seen anything like it, actually, and everybody feels safe. 465 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 5: You can you can have a child walk right through 466 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 5: the middle of Washington, DC and nothing's going to happen. 467 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 5: We were losing more than one person a week. And 468 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 5: why they're being killed. 469 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 2: On an average if you look at the magnitude of 470 00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 2: this week, understand the president flew all the way to Israel, 471 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 2: then he flew to Egypt, then he flew home, arrived 472 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 2: about two thirty three in the morning, then he had 473 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 2: a full day with the President of Argentina, did a 474 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 2: full cabinet meeting, did the Medal of Freedom award for 475 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk, and here he is back at it today. 476 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 2: I've never seen anything like him. I mean, think of 477 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 2: the Biden years. You'd never see your president when you did, 478 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 2: he couldn't hawk pretty unbelievable now based on what he 479 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 2: is saying, you know, listen to like the likes of JB. 480 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 1: Pritzger. 481 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: Now, remember four thousand dead people under his watch as governor, 482 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 2: four thousand, five times the rate the New York City 483 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: and he's suggesting, Hey, you Trump officials that are trying 484 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,679 Speaker 2: to keep the people, the citizens of my state alive, 485 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 2: you might get prosecuted when Democrats are back in charge. 486 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: Listen to this. 487 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 4: We're going to call for accountability, and indeed, you know, 488 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 4: the tables will turn someday. These people should recognize that 489 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 4: maybe they're not going to get prosecuted today, although we're 490 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 4: looking at doing that, but they may get prosecuted after 491 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 4: the Trump administration for the things that they did because 492 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 4: the statute limitations won't have run. 493 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: How about maybe charging people that go out of their 494 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 2: way through defund dismantle no bail laws. Reimagine the police 495 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: were simply, like in the case of Chicago, turning a 496 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:02,880 Speaker 2: blind eye to weekly statistics of people shot and shot 497 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 2: and killed. And they're the ones that are supposed to 498 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 2: be in charge and keep people safe and secure. 499 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,120 Speaker 1: What is the first role of government? 500 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 2: Is it not to allow you know, law and order, safety, 501 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 2: security again a prerequisite to pursue happiness. 502 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:18,640 Speaker 1: It is. 503 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:23,959 Speaker 2: It is such a spectacular failure in my view, but 504 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 2: you know, they just keep doing what they're doing. They 505 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: keep fuming away.

And they're trying 540 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 2: to circumvent federal authority themselves and then lecturing us on 541 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 2: what a threat to democracy actually looks like when they 542 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: themselves are the real threat to democracy anyway.
