Speaker 3: Voice, the truth.

5
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:14,159
Speaker 2: The mainstream won't touch. This guy is by definition of

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 2: global and the stories that matter. Rabs Own, Ben burkewob.

Speaker 2: Him live, breaking news right now here in Real America's

10
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 2: fool filter. These people are domestic terrorists and unapologetic. We're

11
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: here to take a stand for God and country. Let's

00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 2: feel goodness. America's Voice Live. It starts now.

13
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to America's Voice Live. I'm Steve Great. It is Friday,

14
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: thankfully made the ninth. It's good to the day's time.

15
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: So thank you as always spend time with us here

16
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: on Real America's Voice, but truly appreciate it now. On Thursday,

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: Cardinal Robert Provost was selected as the next Pope and

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: will be known as Pope Leo the fourteenth. I'll bring

19
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: on a senior to the White House Faith Office, Paula

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: White shall join me here to get her perspective. Also,

21
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: protests were recently held at a Chicago, howdy end that

22
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: the city converted into a shelter to house illegal aliens,

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: a scheme that has.

24
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 2: Cost the Chicago taxpayers.

25
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty million dollars in counting. I think

26
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: that would upset just about anyone. I'll discuss that coming up,

27
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: and then later had a chance earlier today to visit

28
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: with Congress Women Cat Camick of Florida, where we discussed

29
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: the importance of the App Store Freedom Act to limit

30
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: Google's control over thousands and thousands of apps in your phone.

31
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: Those details straight ahead too, but we start here today.

32
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: House Republicans hard at work preparing President Trump's One Big,

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: Beautiful Bill. Whether that'll be by Memorial Day or close

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: to the fourth of July remains a bit unclear. Divisions

35
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: over changes to Medicaid are becoming the chief hurdle to

36
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: getting President Trump's major tax, immigration, and energy agenda through Congress.

37
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: And let me assure you Medicaid reform is a must

38
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 2: in this bill.

39
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,480
Speaker 1: I want you to take a look at what comes

40
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: of Mark Harris had to say about that earlier here.

41
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 5: It is why is the federal government spending more taxpayer

42
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 5: dollars on healthcare for illegal aliens and basement bums instead

43
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,640
Speaker 5: of those who truly need it. For the past several

44
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 5: weeks have been fearful rumblings on both sides of the

45
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,799
Speaker 5: aisle about reforming Medicaid. But here's the bottom line. If

46
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 5: we fail to act now and allow millions more working

47
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 5: capable adults to continue to free load off Obamacare expansion,

48
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 5: taxpayers will bear the burden of what will become a

49
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 5: one trillion dollar program. Obamacare significantly expanded Medicaid and is

50
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 5: quickly bankrupting the program. Ironically, Medicaid expansion has shifted the

51
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:47,119
Speaker 5: resources away from the most vulnerable Americans, single moms, infants,

52
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,600
Speaker 5: and the disabled in favor of capable adults.

53
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: Here will be to discuss the need for Medicare reform

54
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: in the big beautiful bill is Marcaers.

55
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: Cogressman from North Carolina. Cogressan, thank you for being here,

56
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: say thank you for having me today. Let's talk about that.

57
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: The exploitation, I think is a good word of Obamacare

58
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 1: for a variety of different reasons.

59
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: It was never about.

60
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: Affordable care, even though they call it the Affordable Care Act.

61
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: It was a whole lot different. It was an insurance bill, really,

62
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: where would you start in changing things?

63
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 5: Well, I think when you know we have this once

64
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 5: in a lifetime opportunity, we really feel like, at least

65
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 5: that's how we're approaching it in the House of Representatives,

66
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 5: to get this reconciliation bill across the finish line, get

67
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 5: it onto the President's desk, hopefully by the fourth of July,

68
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 5: and get our nation back on track. As you said,

69
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 5: it's clear that medicaid is going to be a big

70
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 5: piece of this. And of course I'm not on the

71
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 5: Energy and Commerce Committee, and there are other people that

72
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 5: are working on this diligently. But some of the things

73
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 5: that I think are so important for us to understand

74
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 5: is if we don't reform, if we don't changes to

75
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 5: this program like adding work requirements and things such as that,

76
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 5: this is going to continue to just sprawl out of control.

77
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 5: And as I mentioned, you know, when you've got a

78
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 5: thirty year old living in their parents' basement and the

79
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 5: federal government is picking up ninety percent of their health

80
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 5: care and they are very capable of getting out and working,

81
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 5: and yet you've got a single mom who is expecting

82
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 5: a child and the federal government's only paying fifty to

83
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 5: seventy percent of her health care, depending on where she

84
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 5: is and what state she's in in the country. The

85
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 5: bottom line is that this program, if we get back

86
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 5: to wuiet was started and the people that it was

87
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 5: meant to be a safety net for, we have blown

88
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 5: that completely out of proportion. And I'm just one who

89
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 5: believes that we were sent there. In November of twenty

90
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 5: twenty four. We were given the trifecto with President Trump,

91
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,159
Speaker 5: a majority in the House, a majority in the Senate,

92
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 5: to do government differently.

93
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 2: And this is a time that really and true.

94
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 5: If we don't step up and save this program, it

95
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 5: will simply implode upon itself. And as I mentioned yesterday

96
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 5: in that floor speech, one trillion dollars, that's not sustainable.

97
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: Well, what's not sustainable as well, a congressman, is all

98
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: of these. I think there's been something like one hundred

99
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: and thirty five, one hundred and forty executive orders and

100
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: so forth. If this piece of legislation, one big beautiful bill,

101
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: if it doesn't make it through, it's all been a

102
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: complete waste of time. The executive orders are all fine,

103
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 1: and while they're being challenged in courtroom after courtroom, and

104
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,960
Speaker 1: they're losing, thankfully, but if we don't get these things codified,

105
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: a lot of it will be for naught, won't it.

106
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 5: Well, In many ways, it will be because we're only

107
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 5: one change in administration away from the stroke of a

108
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 5: pen from a democratic administration undoing everything the President Trump

109
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 5: has sought to put in place. But I'm confident, Steve,

110
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 5: I really am, that we're going to continue to work together.

111
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 5: I mean, let's face it, I've said that time and

112
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 5: again the left was counting on being able to write

113
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 5: the narrative that Republicans would not be able to govern,

114
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 5: that we would splinter off, that we wouldn't be able

115
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 5: to come together and move this across the finish line.

116
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 5: And in case after case over the last four months,

117
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 5: we have been moving legislation through the US House. When

118
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 5: people said we were going to splinter, Speaker Johnson and

119
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 5: others have worked together and have.

120
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,160
Speaker 4: Been successful at that.

121
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 5: And I believe that's one reason you see the left

122
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 5: in such disarrayed, because they weren't counting on us being

123
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 5: able to govern. So I'm confident when we get back

124
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 5: next week, several committees are left. Seven point eight I

125
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 5: think have already gone and got followed their instructions and

126
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 5: gotten to where they need to be. And I think

127
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 5: as we step into the next phase here in the

128
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 5: next week, we're going to see a lot of good

129
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 5: things happen. And then it's going to go to the Senate.

130
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 5: And I'm really counting on the House and the Senate

131
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 5: and the President needing this charge that the leadership have

132
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 5: worked very closely together to shepherd this bill, and I'm

133
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 5: hopeful we're going to see.

134
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: It happen in Congressman, I hope you are as well. Look,

135
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a little history lesson for folks here.

136
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: What I grew up, we all used the World Book Encyclopedia.

137
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: You probably did too, to do book reports and reports

138
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: and things.

139
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 2: In the state of North Carolina.

140
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: When you would look at the World Book in Syclopedia

141
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: was known for textiles, among other things.

142
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 2: The things that you manufacture there. All of that's gone. Now,

143
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 2: all of that's gone. The things that North Caroline he

144
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: has been known for are gone.

145
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: So I want to focus on the tariffs and what

146
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to reset the world economy this weekend,

147
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary of Scott percent and others traveling to Geneva

148
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 1: Switzerland to be with Chinese and the delegation in the

149
00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 1: first talk in the US and China. But I want

150
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: to ask you in your constituents there east of Charlotte

151
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: and that district of yours, what do they think about

152
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: the tariffs?

153
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: Are they standing with Donald Trump?

154
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: There's some pain involved, There's been adjustments in the stock

155
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: market and so forth. What are people saying what would

156
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: you like to see happen?

157
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would tell you that, yes, there is some

158
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 5: pain involved, But the calls that I received, the individuals

159
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 5: that I have talked with in the business community that

160
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 5: are feeling some of that pain have continued to say

161
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 5: to me that we've got to stay the course. They understand,

162
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 5: they understand the pain, they understand they're trying to do

163
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 5: ways that they can work around it. But at the

164
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,200
Speaker 5: end of the day, they recognize the reason that we're

165
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 5: doing this, and they recognize that President Trump is really

166
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 5: stepping up. And of course the deal that he announced

167
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 5: yesterday with Great Britain that was a huge step in

168
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 5: the right direction. I would love to see one a

169
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 5: week rolled out over the next ninety days. That would

170
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 5: be pretty incredible, because they are sitting down with President

171
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 5: Trump and his team. These countries are in line trying

172
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,319
Speaker 5: to level the playing field, if you will, And you're

173
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 5: exactly right when you look at my district. You go

174
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,479
Speaker 5: down seventy four coming out of Charlotte, you go through Wadesboro,

175
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 5: you go through Rockingham, you go through Laurenberg. All of

176
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 5: these were areas that were just booming through textiles, and

177
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 5: we were one bad trade deal away from losing all

178
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 5: of that. And so there is confidence that there's some

179
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 5: things who are going to come back, and we're going

180
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 5: to see manufacturing hopefully return. And I think President Trump

181
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 5: is taking the steps that need to happen, and at

182
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 5: least for my district, in the district of North Carolina,

183
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 5: people are willing to give him a chance and they

184
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 5: understand what he's trying to do.

185
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 2: Well.

186
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: There's one person that you mentioned the House and sen

187
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 1: I need to get behind one big, beautiful bill and

188
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: get it all the way through. But there is one

189
00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 1: politician gaining some attention nationally there. Tom Tillis is not

190
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 1: well thought of by some constituents there in your state.

191
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: Sir has not stood with Donald Trump all the way through,

192
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: and maybe is going to be primary here. People are

193
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: way to say with Donald Trump. What about Tom Tillis,

194
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: Is he going to make it through?

195
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 5: Well, you know, I've given up being trying to predict

196
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,719
Speaker 5: what's going to happen political in our state. When you

197
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 5: look at North Carolina, I do think that there's a

198
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 5: lot of folks that have a lot of concerns and

199
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 5: are talking about it, but I'm not sure what's going

200
00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,319
Speaker 5: to happen. We have a state convention that's going to

201
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 5: be coming up here in the next month, and I

202
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 5: think Senator Tillis is going to have to make some

203
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 5: decisions as far as what he is planning to do.

204
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 5: Indications are right now he's planning to run, and we're

205
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 5: just hearing whispers here and there about primary challenges, but

206
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 5: nothing that I know for sure set in stone outside

207
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 5: of a few folks that have said they're going to

208
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 5: jump in but are not currently elected officials, so I'm

209
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,319
Speaker 5: not sure where that's going to go. We're trying to

210
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,559
Speaker 5: work right now with all our energy to get this

211
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 5: one big, beautiful bill across the finish line, and I

212
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 5: think everybody is going to breathe a sigh of relief

213
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 5: once we can get this to the President's desk and

214
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 5: get it signed.

215
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: I appreciate that kind but I know it's a sensitive question,

216
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,959
Speaker 1: especially in the tar Heel State. So I appreciate you

217
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: being candid about that. One last thing before we go

218
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,640
Speaker 1: here today, and that is the escalation of hostilities between

219
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: Pakistan and India. Everybody's watching, everybody's concerned, but we've seen

220
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: this before.

221
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,839
Speaker 2: We don't need another war. We certainly don't need a

222
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 2: war between two nuclear powers on those planet.

223
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 5: What are your thoughts, Well, obviously, you know, the administration

224
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 5: has a very close relationship with the President of India

225
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 5: or the prom Minister of India. They've had conversations. I

226
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 5: know Marco Rubio just a week or so ago reached

227
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 5: out and hopefully was able to sort of calm things

228
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 5: down from where they are, but then of course they

229
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 5: have erupted. I'm hopeful that this administration is going to

230
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 5: be able to continue to bring some calm to the

231
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 5: midst of that storm and that we don't need another war.

232
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 5: You're exactly right, and I just think that we've got

233
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 5: to use some really good negotiations there and let them

234
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 5: let them settle things.

235
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think people in this country voted for peace

236
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 2: in Donalzu. I'm not for war. We'll see what happens.

237
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,559
Speaker 1: Congress now here. I appreciate you being here on a Friday.

238
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: Enjoy the weekend, sir.

239
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 5: Thank you so much to appreciate what you do.

240
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: Thank you all. Right after the break.

241
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 1: The first American pope selected yesterday. Some happy with the outcome,

242
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: others have some reservations. I get the perspective. Remember of

243
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: the White House Faith Office, in fact.

244
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 2: A woman that runs it when we come back.

245
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: Well, just yesterday, as you know, history was made the

246
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: election of the first American Pope, Cardinal Robert Prevost from Chicago.

247
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 2: Illinois, will now go by the name of Pope Leo

248
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 2: the fourteenth.

249
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 1: Now, I've spoken to people who are happy about the decision,

250
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 1: others who are a bit concerned. I've seen reports on

251
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 1: this pope being more concerned than what we previously saw.

252
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 2: With Pope Francis. I've also noticed that he is in favor.

253
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: Of open borders, one of other things, and not a

254
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: fan of jdve answered Donald Trump from what I can

255
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 1: gather on social media posts. But besides all that, to

256
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: the matter is that we now have an American pope

257
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 1: leading the Catholic Church with roughly one point four billion

258
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: members worldwide. When it comes to policy, we'll have to

259
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: see where it goes from here. Expecting unexpected. I guess

260
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 1: here's me to discuss this from the White House's perspective.

261
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: Is the Senior advisor to the White House Faith Office,

262
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: PAULA White. Paul, and nice to see you again.

263
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 6: It's so great to be with you, Steve, and with

264
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,559
Speaker 6: all your listeners. And Happy Mother's Day to all the

265
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 6: moms coming up.

266
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 2: Huh, yes, ma'am.

267
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: Mother's Day comes Sunday. Folks, make sure you take care

268
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: of your mom if she's still with us. It's an

269
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,840
Speaker 1: important thing to do, all right, mixed returns, I would

270
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: say on the selection now he was considered a dark horse,

271
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: was Father Bob, as he referred to on this program

272
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: yesterday by a man who knew him pretty well, the

273
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: former ambassador to the Holy See. But he looks to

274
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: be almost the handpicked successor to Pope Francis, who by

275
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,680
Speaker 1: many accounts was very progressive. Upset a lot of folks

276
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: in the Catholic Church. But it's a big day for Catholics,

277
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 1: it's a big day for America. I mean, like I said,

278
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: mixed return.

279
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:06,599
Speaker 2: What do you make of it?

280
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 4: Absolutely Steve Well.

281
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 6: First off, we're very excited that he is the first

282
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 6: ever American pope, and our president often says we're bringing

283
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 6: religion back. And boy has God used this time, this

284
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 6: administration to exalt his name in unknown ways.

285
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,119
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just been phenomenal.

286
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 6: And so we are seeing these first these unprecedented I

287
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 6: think we got to look at a few facts. Number one,

288
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 6: we see that people are returning to church in unprecedented

289
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 6: numbers and scores, young.

290
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 4: People, specifically young men. We see Bible sales up twenty

291
00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 4: two percent.

292
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 6: We see this resurgence, renewal, this revival that is taking

293
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 6: place not only in America but also in Europe and

294
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 6: around the world.

295
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 4: And there is a lot that is out on this pope.

296
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 6: But I am going to believe the best as we

297
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 6: pray that he will lead with some of his former

298
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 6: convictions and ways that hold the teachings of the traditional

299
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 6: Catholic Church. We will see good policy and good outcome.

300
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 6: I was encouraged that we saw things that he wrote.

301
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 6: As a bishop in Chiaco, a city in northeastern Peru,

302
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 6: he opposed a government plan to add teachings on gender

303
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 6: and schools, the promotion of gender ideology is confusing because

304
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 6: it seeks to create genders that don't exist, he told

305
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 6: the local report. Also, of course, on the Vatican's official

306
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 6: news website last year, he said the bishop is not

307
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 6: supposed to be a little prince sitting in the kingdom. Rather,

308
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 6: he said, a church leader is called authentically to be humble,

309
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 6: to be close to the people that he serves, and

310
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 6: to walk.

311
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,600
Speaker 4: With them and even to suffer with them.

312
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 6: And so we won't know until a person actually leads

313
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 6: and is in that place of responsibility. But I do

314
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 6: encourage people Protestants, Catholics, Orthodox to pray for this pope.

315
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 6: We know that the Word of God says that Thy

316
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 6: Kingdom come, that will be done in earth as it.

317
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 4: Is in heaven. When we pray. They said, well, how

318
00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 4: do we pray? And Jesus said, this is how you pray.

319
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 4: Hollow would be thy name. And so we honor God.

320
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 6: We're going to lift up this pope, and we're going

321
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 6: to believe that he stands with the convictions of the

322
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 6: traditional Catholic Church.

323
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 4: We won't know until he actually starts making that policy.

324
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 2: That's true, Yeah, And that's exactly true, Paul. I expect

325
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 2: the unexpected.

326
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: I would say, however, the choice of the name Leo

327
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: the fourteenth, maybe that's an indication. Leo the thirteenth was

328
00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: considered a transformative pope, was a pope for twenty five

329
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 1: years at the end of the nineteenth century and into

330
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: the first couple three years of the twentieth century.

331
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 2: Very transformative.

332
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,920
Speaker 1: He was a person that fought for workers' rights and

333
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: safe work environments and believe that politics and religion did.

334
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 2: In fact mix.

335
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: So maybe if we take that as a you know,

336
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 1: some sort of an indication, a tea leaf, if you will, Paula, maybe.

337
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 2: This pulpe thinks that politics and religion should mix as well.

338
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 4: We will see.

339
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 6: And you know, of course we've read it that he

340
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 6: is believes in social justice and taking care of the poor.

341
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 6: And Steve winsit here and speculate all day long, because

342
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 6: there's a lot of mixed things out there. As you said,

343
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,480
Speaker 6: and as you've pointed out, I'm going to do a

344
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 6: lot of prayer and when to encourage people not to

345
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,160
Speaker 6: become the judge until we see the policy.

346
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 4: And at that time, you know, it's it's pretty easy once.

347
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 6: Well, it's never easy, but when you start see policies

348
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 6: start being made and where he stands in a leadership,

349
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 6: it's a lot of weight from one point. For a

350
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,960
Speaker 6: billion people that he now represents, that's.

351
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 2: A lot of folks.

352
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: Yes, and obviously he had a big connection to South

353
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 1: America with his time spent and proved. Now, one thing

354
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: this time question, Paul, and is not secret. I'm not

355
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: breaking any news here.

356
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 2: The Catholic Church has financial issues in the Vatican currently.

357
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 2: That's pretty obvious.

358
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: And it's also true that American Catholics contribute more to

359
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 1: the kitty, to the offering plate, if you will, than

360
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: any other group of Catholics in the world. There might

361
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: have been a consideration there to bring financial stability to

362
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,119
Speaker 1: the Vatican, and.

363
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 2: Maybe that was one of the reasons he was selected

364
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 2: as well. We'll have to wait and say on that,

365
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 2: but we do know that the church has some challenges financially,

366
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 2: don't they.

367
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 4: Well, it's been reported.

368
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 6: And again, you know, when someone's leading, you don't think

369
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 6: of these things that there's a business behind it.

370
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 4: There is the financial responsibility.

371
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 6: That he's going to have to shoulder and carry along

372
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 6: with others that are there for Again, we're talking about

373
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 6: a very huge part of society. And then there's the

374
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 6: spiritual responsibility the policy. I think as believers and people

375
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 6: who are followers of Jesus Christ, we need to pray

376
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 6: for the pope.

377
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 4: We need to lift him up.

378
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 6: And I do celebrate that he is from America, and

379
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 6: I'd like his stand on He's a very pro life.

380
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 4: He's made statements that there are only you know, two genders.

381
00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:57,359
Speaker 4: It's kind of like that.

382
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 2: It's very clear on both those points.

383
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 6: So let's see. Maybe we'll be having this conversation at

384
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 6: Abount a month or two or six. I'm sure we'll

385
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 6: continue this conversation. But I tend to do what the

386
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 6: Bible says and believe the best in people until they

387
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 6: give me a reason not to.

388
00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: I think that's a good path to follow this Mother's

389
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: Day weekend. Paula, I think you're exactly right. Some things

390
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: to consider, some tea leaves maybe, But until things actually happen,

391
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 1: we can't really tell you what's going to happen until

392
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: we could look at it in the rearview mirror. Paula White,

393
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: Senior advisor to the White House Faith Office.

394
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 2: Always appreciate talking to you man.

395
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 4: Thank you so much, Steve, and be blessed you as well.

396
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 2: She is a joy coming up after the break.

397
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 1: Protests were recently held at a Chicago hobby ind that

398
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,920
Speaker 1: the city converted into a shelter to house illegaliens, a

399
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: scheme that has cost the Chicago taxpayers over one hundred and.

400
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,159
Speaker 2: Fifty million dollars. Detailed straight ahead.

401
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: Recently in Chicago, a protest was held at a holiday

402
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: inn that has been transformed into a shelter for illegal

403
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: aliens by the city. October twenty twenty four, the Hounding

404
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: End was converted into a shelter along with another nearby facility,

405
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 1: costing the City of Chicago and estimated one hundred and

406
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: sixty million dollars. Aside from breaking federal long costing taxpayers

407
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: million of dollars, the shelter seems to have other issues

408
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: that are catching the experts in the area as well.

409
00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: It was reported that Chicago Fire Department had responded to

410
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: multiple maternity calls from the shelter, including calls where a

411
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: woman had a miscarriage without knowing she had.

412
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 2: A sexually transmitted infection.

413
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: All of this going on, it's what the taxpayer dollars

414
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: are going toward in Chicago. Truly unbelievable if it was

415
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: anywhere else here with me to discuss this. A man

416
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 1: who was at those protests, the host of behind enemy lines,

417
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:51,479
Speaker 1: Terry Newsome.

418
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 2: Very nice to see you again. Look, Chicago's not too

419
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 2: far from me.

420
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: It's right around the lake from where I sid and

421
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: I visited regularly too, I should say not so much anymore.

422
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: Chicago has a host of the worst mayor. I thought

423
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: that Lori Lightweight was a bad mayor. Yeah, now you

424
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: got this guy, I mean, good Lord. Things go from

425
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: bad to worse, it seems in Chicago done that.

426
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sure has. You know, the illegal immigration.

427
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 4: Challenge and issues used to be in the city.

428
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,640
Speaker 7: They spread all over the Chicaguan community, and now they're everywhere,

429
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 7: especially when the original shelters shut down, the original twenty

430
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 7: seven and then this Holiday Inn is one of the

431
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 7: old shelters that has reopened under one system initiative, which

432
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 7: is a facade by Mayor Johnson to pretend it's for

433
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 7: homeless people. He stopped counting the.

434
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 2: New arrivals.

435
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 7: He calls them new arrivals in January, so they don't

436
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 7: just want us to know how many new arrivals come.

437
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,679
Speaker 7: They're pretending that this is for homeless shelters, and then

438
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,639
Speaker 7: they embed the illegal immigrants in Venezuelans. For instance, this

439
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 7: hotel is almost all Venezuelans and very little homeless people,

440
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 7: and that's the intent, is to hide how much money

441
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,639
Speaker 7: they are continuing to spend on these illegal immigrants. I

442
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 7: just had another foy that I haven't even released yet,

443
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 7: that had shown a Democratic politician I forgot the woman's

444
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 7: name for the Northwest Suburbs complaining to the Deputy Mayor

445
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 7: and other folks within the administration of Grant administration two

446
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 7: hundred and ninety million dollars they get from the state

447
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 7: of Illinois. And her response to these people are I'm

448
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 7: very concerned that none of this money is being spent

449
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 7: on long term homeless and that's a code word for

450
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 7: Chicago homeless. And then she goes on to say I

451
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 7: would like to talk to you offline about this, meaning

452
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 7: she doesn't want it, Foyd, you know, because we got

453
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,480
Speaker 7: access to through forest, so now they're still getting meant money.

454
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 7: And even the own Democratic politicians are saying they'rety.

455
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 2: I got to ask you.

456
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: It's just like this laundry list of everything that's wrong

457
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: with Democrat politics. Not just in Chicago, but in Democrat

458
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: cities across this country, squandering the resources, exploiting the people

459
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: that live there, ignoring the concerns that they have, whether

460
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: it's gangs on the corner or illegals taking over what

461
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: were community centers for the children of the Chicago School

462
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: District and so forth. Now those are not available for

463
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: after school programs because they've been given to illegals.

464
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 2: I know, because I saw a.

465
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: Lot of moms in Chicago complaining about that over the

466
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: last couple of years.

467
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 2: How do people in Chicago continue to vote for this

468
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 2: or terry? This is the real question.

469
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: Our elections in Chicago just fraudulent? Are they just fraudent

470
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: since the time of the Daily Machine? Is it just

471
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: fraud because nobody would vote for what you're describing, Nobody

472
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: that's sane would vote for that.

473
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 7: Yes, Steve, I think Chicago have probably invented voter fraud,

474
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 7: right with the unions and the machine, Remember the Chicago Machine.

475
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: I think they're really in this year, Mary Barlsham.

476
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 7: Within that system, I think it still goes on, not

477
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 7: that they really need it because it's been so infiltrated

478
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 7: by leftists and Democrats corrupt unions, right, But now the

479
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 7: minorities within.

480
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,600
Speaker 2: Chicago are they're being up. They're upset.

481
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 6: You know.

482
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 7: I just had an event with Ben Burke, Ploman and Vandersteel.

483
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 7: We had two span pastors to African Americans, one from

484
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 7: turn Chicago Red, and they're frustrated. They're fed up. These

485
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 7: people were Democrats, right, they're.

486
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 2: Electionary. Who's voting for these people?

487
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:18,959
Speaker 1: I mean Brandon Johnson, Marie Lightweight, I mean, honestly, who

488
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 1: votes for these people?

489
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 7: Well, I hope well the Chicago public school systems push

490
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 7: Brandon Johnson. They're very they're very powerful, they have lots

491
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 7: of money, and they're corrupt as hell. Right, the next election,

492
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 7: he only has six percent voter approval, so we will

493
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,280
Speaker 7: know the next lie. But you just get other You

494
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 7: just get another left winger. That's the Just get some

495
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 7: other left wing goofball. Do they not understand voting.

496
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 1: For Democrats in Chicago is a losing proposition, period paragraph

497
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 1: full stop.

498
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 2: Which part do they not understand? Terry? I think they're wicked.

499
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,719
Speaker 7: I hope by the next election the last this all

500
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 7: happened in the last two years, Steve Right, they're all

501
00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 7: this corruption, the money, they they're able to see it.

502
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 7: I hope there's rumors that Blogo might run for mayor

503
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 7: of Chicago. Honestly, I hope he does. That's our only

504
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,200
Speaker 7: chance because I know he's upset with what the Democrats

505
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 7: did to him.

506
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 2: You know, I know he is. Well, I think, yeah,

507
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 2: of course, at least.

508
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 1: Well no, but at least he'd have name recognition. He

509
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 1: could run as a Look, if you run as a

510
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,320
Speaker 1: moderate Democrat, but you don't have you got these people

511
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: like Brandon Johnson that are radical leftists and activism zones

512
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 1: over here.

513
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 2: I feel sorry for you. I mean, I used to

514
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 2: go to Wrigley Field and watch the Cubs play and

515
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 2: do different things.

516
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: Loved going to Chicago South Concerence there, loved it. I

517
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: don't go anymore. I gotta leave it. It's too bad.

518
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, some of those North Side areas used to be packed.

519
00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 7: People take videos and stuff. There's not even cars on

520
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 7: the street now in that area that you just talked about.

521
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 7: I see it on Twitter, and a lot of guys

522
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 7: are going there, you know now, now, Brandon Johnson, you know,

523
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 7: I's hiring a security firm that hires game members to

524
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 7: oversee at the Venezuelans in the hotel perf What.

525
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 2: Could go wrong with that? Right? Anyhow, I got to

526
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:01,639
Speaker 2: leave it there.

527
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: Terry Newsom greatly appreciates you, my friend behind enemy lines.

528
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 2: Go find it. You can be enlightened by what he

529
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 2: has to say. Terry, thank you. Have a good Friday.

530
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,560

538
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: the IRS applying pressure levels we haven't seen in years.

539
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,879

Speaker 1: coming up after the break, I had the opportunity to

553
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: sit down with Congressman Cat Camick just a bit ago.

554
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: I'll share what she had to say straight ahead on

555
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 1: America's Voice Live. All right, So I had a chance

556
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: to sit down with Congresswoman Kat Chemick of Florida's third

557
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 1: congressional district, where we discuss the importance of the App

558
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 1: Store Freedom Act. Think a look, happy Friday. Yeah, it's

559
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,879
Speaker 1: been another blistering week. I mean, how do people keep

560
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: up with Donald Trump? I mean, honestly, here's a guy

561
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: who's seventy eight years old. He wears me out and

562
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: I'm just watching right.

563
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 3: The short answer is that they don't. The man sleeps

564
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 3: four hours.

565
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 8: He's running circles around his twenty three year old you know,

566
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 8: staffers in the White House, and it's a bit of

567
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,440
Speaker 8: a running joke here on Capitol Hill that the man

568
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 8: has endless endless energy, doesn't smoke, doesn't drink, and I

569
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 8: think his only vice is diet coke.

570
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 2: And Big Max that coke and Big Max. There you go.

571
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got some legislation going through here, and I

572
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 1: want you to tell this to the folks. It's important

573
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: Google is not the thousand pound gorilla anymore because there

574
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: are other options. Elon mussing, check out Rock before you

575
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 1: go to Google. Don't google it Rocket, he says. And

576
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,719
Speaker 1: there's some good that, but pushing the App Store Freedom

577
00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: Act to limit Apple and Google's absolute control over all

578
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: these apps. I mean they a person can live and

579
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: die financially speaking as a business owner. If Apple Google

580
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: say yeah, you're an a to an app.

581
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 8: Can't they absolutely? This has kind of been the sleeping

582
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 8: giant that a few especially in industry, have talked about,

583
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 8: known about, been very frustrated with. But consumers are just

584
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 8: really tuning into the lack of competition in the space.

585
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 3: And they're starting to ask questions, which is I think

586
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 3: a good thing.

587
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 8: You have a situation where if you buy an iPhone,

588
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 8: it's your property, right, Well, Apple has the App Store

589
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 8: and you can't put another marketplace on your.

590
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,479
Speaker 3: Phone to download the apps.

591
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 8: So one of the challenges that we have is one

592
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 8: having that consumer choice available for people. If you effectively,

593
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 8: Google and Apple have an oligopoly on what people can

594
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 8: choose from in terms of the apps that they have

595
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 8: in those stores.

596
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 3: The second thing is on the developer and the app side.

597
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:46,120
Speaker 8: You have to pay thirty percent gross profits of your

598
00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 8: company to Apple or Google, and that to me is

599
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 8: just incredibly wrong. They then control your user's data, so

600
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 8: the customers that utilize those apps, and Spotify is a

601
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 8: very good example of this. People always wonder why you

602
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:03,959
Speaker 8: can't change your membership or doing a transaction through Apple

603
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 8: or Google for Spotify, Well, it's because Spotify didn't want

604
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,920
Speaker 8: to turn over thirty percent of their profits. But more

605
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 8: than that, they didn't want their customer's data to be

606
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 8: housed with Apple where they would have to go and.

607
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 3: Ask permission in order to get their customers data. So

608
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 3: there's a lot of really interesting aspects to this.

609
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 8: Many of the courts are stepping in talking about how

610
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 8: there's antitrust issues. There's a competition, unfair competition that is

611
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 8: taking place. So this is a common sense way that

612
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 8: we can address the marketplace, getting back to the core

613
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 8: principles of free markets.

614
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 3: I think it's a good thing for consumers.

615
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 8: I think it's a good thing for startups and apps

616
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 8: and for anyone who says, oh, well, Apple needs to

617
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 8: be the sole person, sole entity that controls the marketplace

618
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 8: for security. Spare me any marketplace that is housing apps

619
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 8: that are malware spyware like teamu TikTok, give me a break.

620
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 8: They can use that on someone else who will believe them.

621
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 8: But I think this is a very exciting time for competition, especially.

622
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 2: And well, it would be nice, wouldn't that.

623
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: It'd be nice to have people that could freely enter

624
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: the market and either their product survive or failed based.

625
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 2: On the quality of the product.

626
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: On the side of the gorilla that they're fighting against,

627
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: it already has control of the market.

628
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 2: And that's the way it's supposed to work. You know,

629
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 2: great ideas, at least in my theory of America.

630
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 1: We're supposed to have a chance to make it to

631
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: the marketplace, and that doesn't always happen.

632
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: People get crushed.

633
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:33,479
Speaker 8: Yes, yeah, I mean this is just lowering the barrier

634
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 8: to entry, allowing people consumer choice, right of what marketplace

635
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 8: they want to use. They should be able to take

636
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 8: the Apple Store off of their phone and download the

637
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 8: marketplace of their choice, but currently that's not the case.

638
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 8: So this is reducing barriers to entry, fostering competition. And

639
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 8: really we all remember that that infamous situation with Parlor,

640
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 8: the conservative social media app. Apple didn't like what they

641
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 8: were doing, so they deplatformed them defectionally. Yeah, took their

642
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 8: entire business with them. So that's the kind of power

643
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 8: that no one should have. And so this is something

644
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 8: to directify a long time wrong.

645
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 2: I guess the good night news for Parlors that they're back.

646
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 1: They're trying to come back from you know, the grave,

647
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: but it's a hard road back for sure.

648
00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 2: Now I want to move on to something else here.

649
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: Maternal health support of the Preventing Maternal Death Reauthorization Act

650
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,000
Speaker 1: to Reduce Maternal Mortality.

651
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 2: What's this about?

652
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 8: You know, it's it's something that I've become more attuned

653
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 8: to since finding out I'm expecting. I'm six months pregnant.

654
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 8: And you know, when I found out back in December

655
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 8: that I was expecting, I started, of course reading more

656
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 8: about the journey, the process and when you're in that

657
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 8: realm you start to pick up on things that have

658
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 8: been problematic. It was shocking to me to find out

659
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 8: that maternal deaths in this country continue to go up

660
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 8: instead of go down.

661
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 3: We don't lead the world in terms of.

662
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 8: Best health outcomes for mothers and their children, and to me,

663
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 8: that is unacceptable.

664
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 3: And along this journey, I've been finding a tremendous amount of.

665
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 8: Issues in this space where uh, you know, you've got

666
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:26,280
Speaker 8: tell savings accounts that won't cover any of the doctor's

667
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 8: appointments leading up to giving birth, insurance companies that play

668
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 8: a ton of games.

669
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 3: I can give you some.

670
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,240
Speaker 2: Pretty smar Sure right, it's time to be.

671
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 3: Pretty shocking.

672
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got, in fact, you've got your hands in

673
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: all sorts of things. I've got a whole list of

674
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: things here that I would like to ask you about.

675
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to jump to the NPR because good fun. Look,

676
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,840
Speaker 1: NPR and PBS get a tremendous amount of money from

677
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: me and you and all the taxpayers. Look, I don't

678
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 1: get any money from the government. I have to sit

679
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: out here and compete for viewership and advertisers. And I

680
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: don't see that NPR and PBS should be treated any differently,

681
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 1: and we spend a lot of money there that they

682
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: could be directed to something much more useful.

683
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,560
Speaker 3: What say you, Well, you're one hundred percent right, Steve.

684
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 8: We spend almost half a billion dollars to fund entities

685
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 8: like NPR.

686
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,320
Speaker 3: And keep in mind when NPR came about, there wasn't.

687
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 8: Really a lot of options in the space to deliver

688
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 8: information across the country. The landscape has changed dramatically, so

689
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 8: the original mission set has changed. And then you just

690
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 8: look at the unquestionable bias. When you have eighty seven

691
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:44,680
Speaker 8: of your eighty nine newsroom reporters that are registered Democrats,

692
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 8: many of them are Democrat owners, that tells you.

693
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:48,759
Speaker 3: Everything that you need to know.

694
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 8: So I don't think that they have proven that they

695
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 8: can remain neutral and give a unbiased perspective. They've become

696
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 8: effectively a propaganda wing for the Democrat Party.

697
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: And if that's what they want to do, fine, you

698
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,239
Speaker 3: just won't do it on the taxpayers.

699
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 8: Tyme.

700
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,279
Speaker 2: I agree with that. You know, we talked about how

701
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,320
Speaker 2: busy Donald Trump is.

702
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: You're pretty busy yourself, and congratulations, by the way, you

703
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 1: say you're six months along. But government oversight the Rains Act,

704
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,200
Speaker 1: Healthcare savity, the Access Act, protecting women's sports.

705
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 2: You are involved in all of these different things, and

706
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 2: next time you come back to up to spend a

707
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 2: little bit more time, because well that's all the time

708
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 2: we have for today. Congresswoman Caactemic. I always appreciate seeing you.

709

00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 8: to get it through. Thanks for having me.

Speaker 3: And I hope you have a great weekend.

713
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,239
Speaker 2: There you have it. We'll take a quick break of

714
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 2: me back on America's Voice Live.

715
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 1: All right, let's get you on the road to financial sanity,

716
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,439
Speaker 1: shall we. End of the last administration, Americans got hit hard.

717
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 1: Family shelled out an additional twenty eight thousand dollars just

718
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: to get by, and debt levels hit historic highs. But

719
00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: there's hope on the horiz and there's a new solution

720
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: design to help tackle that and put cash back into

721
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 1: your hands. Sounds good, doesn't it. I'm invited my friend

722
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: Gillian Barbery here and well known TV personality and done

723
00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 1: with debt client. Jillian knows firsthand how tough it is

724
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: to live under the weight of debt, how life changing

725
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,280
Speaker 1: it can be to come out the other side.

726
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 2: Jillian, nice to see you again.

727
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 9: Always great to see you too, Steven, Happy Friday. Yes,

728
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 9: I am one of those people is not afraid to

729
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 9: talk about everything involving debt and just being absolutely frightened

730
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 9: when it comes to finances. And then you've got the

731
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 9: personal side of it, where you have anxiety and you're shamed,

732
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,359
Speaker 9: you don't want to tell anyone.

733
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 10: And it's just such a lonely road to be down.

734
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 10: And so in my situation, it was a lot of things.

735
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 9: So it was gosh, divorce, job loss, and cancer kind

736
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 9: of all at once, and so it really affected my

737
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 9: life in the sense that I had a lot of

738
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:56,520
Speaker 9: anxiety attacks.

739
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 10: I wasn't sure what was happening. I felt very lone.

740
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 10: I didn't really talk to anybody about it because I

741
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 10: was a single mom and I'm not going to talk

742
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 10: to my little kids about it. But it was really

743
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 10: a trying time.

744
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 4: So done with debt.

745
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 9: What are they Well, let me tell you they are

746
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,120
Speaker 9: life savers in many ways. Not just getting you back

747
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 9: on track is steefsent financially and possibly putting money in

748
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 9: your pocket at the end of the day. But it's

749
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 9: really a system that mentally just absolved me of all

750
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 9: of the issues around me. I'm talking about the nasty

751
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 9: phone calls and the threatening letters that you would get constantly.

752
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 10: And it went on for months and months before eye contacted.

753
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 4: Done with debt.

754
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 9: If you are one of those people that are like

755
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,120
Speaker 9: millions of Americans struggling, we're not judging, we're just saying

756
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 9: there is help out there, and the first step is

757
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 9: done with debt, because honestly, the more time you wait,

758
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,919
Speaker 9: the more penalties that a crew and the more debt

759
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 9: you get in, so that whole gets bigger and bigger,

760
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:52,399
Speaker 9: you feel like you're.

761
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 10: Getting dragged down.

762
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 4: So done with debt.

763
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 10: People always say, you know how fast is it? It's

764
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 10: literally go online, get go.

765
00:37:59,040 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 4: We done with that dot com?

766
00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 10: Go and get a free consultation.

767
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,359
Speaker 9: And then if you decide that it's a whole team

768
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 9: you'll have working with you, that you want to do

769
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:14,000
Speaker 9: this and why wouldn't you, it starts literally overnight that

770
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 9: the harassing phone calls and letterstop.

771
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,920
Speaker 10: More importantly, they get their whole.

772
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,000
Speaker 9: Team together and they talk to the banking institutions and

773
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 9: credit card companies and they find everything out there that

774
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 9: is going to benefit you.

775
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:29,479
Speaker 10: In the sense of finances. So some places are willing

776
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 10: to completely absolve your debt.

777
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 9: I had no idea, we have to talk to them,

778
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 9: and I didn't know how to talk to them, and

779
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 9: I was afraid to talk to them. So done with

780
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 9: debt dot Com got me back on the road to

781
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 9: financial freedom.

782
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 10: And I'm just so grateful. So don't be afraid to

783
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 10: call that meant to Still.

784
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: I want to give some people some hope here today, Jillian.

785
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 1: I want to get people some hope here today. Two

786
00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,440
Speaker 1: things I want to ask you. Number one, how do

787
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 1: you get started? Number two? How quickly can people see results?

788
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 1: Those are the two questions, because I've got people watching

789
00:38:58,239 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 1: right now, and it's the dirty.

790
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,000
Speaker 2: Nobody will talk about it, just like you said.

791
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: It's dead. They don't talk about it. They don't even

792
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 1: talk about with their family. Sometimes they just try to

793
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: hide from it. They try to bury it internally. They

794
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:11,240
Speaker 1: don't sleep, they've got stress. How quickly can we see results?

795
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:12,240
Speaker 1: How do we get started?

796
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 10: Okay, so the results happen right away if you go

797
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 10: on it.

798
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,919
Speaker 9: Done with that dot Com, get their information, their number

799
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 9: and call them, reach out to them, do it online.

800
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 10: Get that free consultation it literally happens for me.

801
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 4: It happened overnight.

802
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 9: I just noticed that there weren't all these unknown calls,

803
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 9: and then the mailbox wasn't as crammed with you know

804
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 9: these letters. Now see they look like real government documents.

805
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 9: They've gotten so good, these companies, and so you're freaking out.

806
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:44,920
Speaker 9: You're like, is this who is this? Is this a

807
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 9: government agency? No, it's just you know that the company

808
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 9: looking like they're very you know, uh, formal. You know

809
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 9: they're going to put you in jail or something, and

810
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,319
Speaker 9: it's just not the case. So the stress gets leaving

811
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 9: it overnight and then you get.

812
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 4: Right on track.

813
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 10: They'll put it together for you, your whole team.

814
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 4: It's like having a.

815
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 2: Personal I'm telling you to hear that. They get right

816
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 2: on it right now. Don't go another weekend not sleeping,

817
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 2: not resting, trying to hide that dirty secret. Go to

818
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 2: done with debt dot Com. Do that now.

819
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 1: You owe it to yourself. You deserve some peace in

820
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 1: your life. Go to done with debt dot Com. Done

821
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 1: with that, dot Com. Jillian, I greatly appreciate you. You're

822
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: a hope and inspiration voice and the wilderness of debt confusion.

823
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you so much.

824
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 4: You have a great weekend. Great to be here.

825
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 2: Thank you you too. There you have it.

826
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: When we get back, Amanda Head will be here joining

827
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 1: me from the White House. She's been giving his latest

828
00:40:39,320 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 1: from what's happening there straight ahead. It's an excitement and

829
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: American Pope. Interesting stuff. What did Caroline have to say earlier?

830
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 11: Yeah, you know, I love how she combats the mainstream media.

831
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 11: You know, President Trump has this big Middle East visit

832
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 11: next week. He's heading to Saudi Arabia on I believe

833
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:33,240
Speaker 11: Tuesday and Wednesday and then on to Cutter and UAE.

834
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 11: And you had a highly antagonistic member of the media

835
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 11: asking if President if there were concerns that President Trump

836
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 11: was going to be wheeling and dealing personally as far

837
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,799
Speaker 11: as you know, personal business deals, And Caroline Levett took

838
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 11: the prime moment to capitalize on the past president's business

839
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 11: dealings as we all know, with CEFC in China, among

840
00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:01,160
Speaker 11: other companies in Ukraine, Romania, Kazakhstan, etc. So the media

841
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,359
Speaker 11: is obviously trying to have their framing when it comes

842
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 11: to even a trip like this, President Trump heading to

843
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 11: the Gulf States where no doubt he is going to

844
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 11: fortify a lot of those economic ties as the President

845
00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 11: or as Caroline Levitt talked about yesterday, and the president

846
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 11: up to ten trillion dollars worth of foreign investments in

847
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 11: this country.

848
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,760
Speaker 12: And you look at those countries in the Middle East.

849
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,239
Speaker 11: Saudi Arabia, Cutter and UAE, namely, they have some deep

850
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,320
Speaker 11: pockets when it comes to investments. So I imagine President

851
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,960
Speaker 11: Trump is going to come home with quite a few

852
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 11: trophies when it comes to benefiting the American people economically.

853
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,399
Speaker 2: Well, you look at what happened with the UK.

854
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: Was that Tuesday, Wednesday, this week, whatever day it was,

855
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: the UK came in first ones to agree to a

856
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: trade deal. A few details we worked out, but it's

857
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,880
Speaker 1: a done deal there. That's the first dominant fault. And

858
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: you think about all these naysayers, whether it's the media

859
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 1: or Democrats, Oh, Trump's tariffs are.

860
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 2: Going to fail.

861
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: Not only are they not failing, the markets almost all

862
00:42:58,320 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 1: the way back to where it was.

863
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 2: Remember a couple of weeks ago.

864
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: Man, they're telling us it's the worst Wall Street week

865
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: in one hundred years or some silly thing here.

866
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 2: It is all the mills all the way back.

867
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: If the trade deals get put in place, and some

868
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 1: of these interistrates come down. Six months from now, we

869
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,279
Speaker 1: could be in an economy that's is roaring. I mean,

870
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 1: it's that close and that possible, isn't it?

871
00:43:21,600 --> 00:43:23,800
Speaker 12: It absolutely is. I mean we are right on the

872
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 12: cusp of that.

873
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 11: And I was talking to cushta Side, Deputy Press Secretary,

874
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 11: earlier today and that's what he was talking about. It's

875
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 11: what President Trump's entire negotiating team has been talking about.

876
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 11: When you get that one, that one deal that breaks

877
00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 11: the seal, the seal deal breaker is the one that

878
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 11: you know, it's a cascading effect for other countries afterwards.

879
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 12: President Trump has been an integral part of all of this.

880
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 11: In fact, the UK ambassador to the United States said

881
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 11: that in the announcement yesterday. Oftentimes you have you have

882
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 11: a trade team like we do with Howard Lutnick as

883
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 11: Commerce secretarians, as a Treasury secretary, and our trade representative.

884
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 11: You have that team, but it's not often that you

885
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 11: have the world leader who's in the room, who's having

886
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 11: the negotiations, who's stipulating the terms required.

887
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,319
Speaker 12: But President Trump is that hands.

888
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 11: On and so I think for other world leaders they're

889
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,719
Speaker 11: probably going to be a little bit intimidated when they

890
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 11: get to the point where Penn hits the pad and

891
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 11: they say, oh my gosh, the President is still here

892
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 11: negotiating with us.

893
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,480
Speaker 1: He's going to get it done. That's what this is

894
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,360
Speaker 1: what the people voted for. Amanda Head. I have to

895
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,399
Speaker 1: leave it there on our Friday. Thank you so much

896
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 1: for being here with us. He's going to get it

897
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,799
Speaker 1: done with friends. And it's been another big week. Yes, ma'am,
