00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,800

Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior in the Senate today in the hot seating

23
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: and barrage of questions, most of them lowing why he's

24
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 2: going to be a great HHS Secretary if he can

25
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: get confirmation. Also, the University of Miami going back to

26
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 2: requiring standardized testing to get into the university. Things look

27
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,839
Speaker 2: like they're finally going back to normal with President Trump

28
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: in the White House.

33
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 2: that coming up on America's Voice Live. A couple of

34
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 2: breaking stories off the top. Donald Trump just signed the

35
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 2: Lake and Riley Acts, first legislative achievement in his second term.

36
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 2: Big move there, and he made news by announcing he's

37
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 2: intending to sign an executive order to expand the camp

38
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 2: at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to house thirty thousand illegals potentially.

39
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: We'll keep you up to date on that as we

40
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: learn more. Today. Robert F.

41
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior that President Donald Trump's nominee for Secretary of

42
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 2: Health and Human Services appeared before the Senate Finance Committee

43
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 2: for his initial confirmation hearing. Kennedy, known for his controversy

44
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: of views on vaccines, met with both cheers and booze

45
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: as he walked into the committee room. Listen to this,

46
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: as you can tell, mostly very well received, but as expected,

47
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: Kennedy faced curveballs and loaded questions from Democrat members of

48
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 2: the committee.

49
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 1: Senator Elizabeth Warren no exception, for example.

50
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: Was getting heated as she pressed Kennedy about whether.

51
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: Or not he will sue drug companies. Listen to this.

52
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 5: I want to know if you will commit right now

53
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 5: that not only will you not go to work for

54
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 5: drug companies, you won't go to work suing the drug

55
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 5: companies and taking your break out of that while you're

56
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 5: a secretary and for four years after.

57
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 6: It's just commit to not taking any fees from drug

58
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:21,640
Speaker 6: rug companies. Well, I'm Secretary, I.

59
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 5: I'm asking about fees from suing drug companies. Will you

60
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 5: agree not to do that?

61
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 6: You're asking me to not sue drug companies, And I'm

62
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 6: not going to agree to.

63
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: Companies as much I want.

64
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 6: I am not going to agree to not sue drug

65
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 6: companies or anybody.

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: Pretty rich really when you know that Senator Elizabeth Warren

67
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,839
Speaker 2: there has collected millions, literally millions of dollars from big

68
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 2: pharma to run her campaigns to get elected as senator

69
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: from the state of Massachusetts, and then she's demanding that

70
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: he says he won't sue drug companies.

71
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 1: Gee, talk about a conflict of interest.

72
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: There's Elizabeth Warren putting textbook edition of it out for

73
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: all to see. And then we had Republicans Sentator Tom

74
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 2: tillis not much of a Republican actually, but he's a

75
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: Republican by name anyway, asking RFK Junior about whether or

76
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 2: not he is a conspiracy theorist.

77
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: Here's how Kennedy responded to that. I got a real

78
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: quick question for you. Are you a conspiracy theorist?

79
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 6: That is a pejorative senator that's applied to me mainly

80
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 6: to keep me from asking difficult questions a powerful interest.

81
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 6: I was told that I was a conspiracy theorist. That

82
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 6: label was applied to me because I said that the vaccines,

83
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 6: the COVID vaccine didn't prevent transmission and it wouldn't prevent

84
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 6: infection when the government was telling people Americans that it would.

85
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 6: I was saying that because I was looking at the

86
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 6: monkey studies. In May of twenty twenty, I was called

87
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 6: a conspirat. Now everybody admits it. I was called a

88
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 6: conspiracy theorist because I said read I cause cancer, and

89
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 6: now FDA has acknowledged that and banned it. I was

90
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 6: called a conspiracy theorist because I said lor I lowered

91
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 6: IQ as we am A published a better review of

92
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 6: eighty seven studies saying that there's a direct inverse correlation

93
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 6: between IQ laws.

94
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 7: All Right, so I'm going to assume I can go

95
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 7: on for about a week. Is there any one of

96
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 7: them that you can say you got me that really

97
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 7: was a conspiracy theory? Or are you in a possession

98
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 7: to submit for the record. I think it'd just be

99
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 7: helpful for every one of these narratives for you to

100
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 7: submit that maybe for the record.

101
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 2: There's North Carolina Senator Tom Tillis. Look, Bobby has some

102
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: odd views in my way of thinking. When it comes

103
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 2: to the Second Amendment abortion, for sure, he's not my

104
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: favorite on either of those topics, but in.

105
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: Some places he's spot on.

106
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 2: And the American people like Bobby Kennedy overall in the

107
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: make America Healthy Again idea when it comes to what

108
00:05:58,920 --> 00:05:59,360
Speaker 2: we eat.

109
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: I mean, we can all walk down the streets and.

110
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 2: See who who's heavy and how unhealthy we are. And

111
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: he pointed out spending nine hundred billion dollars in health

112
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 2: from the United States government.

113
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: Hasn't made us any healthier, has it?

114
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: Then along came Bernie Sanders going after Bobby with more

115
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 2: loaded questions about his stance on vaccines.

116
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: This was predictable as well. Take a look.

117
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 8: I think the gist of what you were trying to

118
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 8: say today is you're really pro vaccine, you want to

119
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,719
Speaker 8: ask questions. You have started a group called the Children's

120
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 8: Health Defense. You're the originina right now? Is I understand

121
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 8: that on their website they are selling what's called onesies,

122
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 8: these little things clothing for babies. One of them is dialed, unfaxed, unafraid,

123
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 8: next one and the sold for twenty six bucks a piece.

124
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 8: By the way, next one is no vax no problem.

125
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 8: Now you're coming before this committee and you say you're

126
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 8: pro vaccine. I just want to ask some questions. And

127
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 8: yet your organization is making money selling a child's product

128
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 8: to parents for twenty six bucks, which cast fundamental doubt

129
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 8: on on the usefulness of vaccines. Can you tell us

130
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 8: now that you will, now that you are prow vaccine,

131
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 8: that you're going to have your organization take these products

132
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 8: off the market.

133
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 6: Senator, I have no power over that organization. I'm not

134
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 6: you've heard of it. I resigned from the board.

135
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 8: I was just a few months ago. You founded that.

136
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 8: You certainly have power, you can make that. How are

137
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 8: you supportive of this? I have had nothing to do

138
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 8: with your supportive of these onesies.

139
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: I'm supportive of vaccines. Are you supportive of these?

140
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 8: This clothing which is militantly anti vaccine?

141
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 6: I am supportive of vaccines. Well, I want good science.

142
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: Are you supporting of these? What are you supportive of?

143
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: You supporting?

144
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: I support free speech, Senators, That's what I support.

145
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders free speech.

146
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 2: If you don't put that on a onesie, put it on.

147
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 1: A onesie, that's called America.

148
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: Anyhow, It's interesting to watch Bernie Sanders, another beneficiary a

149
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: big farm of money in big amounts, sitting there wagging

150
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 2: his finger.

151
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: At Bobby Kennedy.

152
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 2: Remarkable, really, how embarrassing it should be, But of course

153
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: there's no shame over there.

154
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: They don't show up to ask questions.

155
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 2: They show up to grand stand and give speeches so

156
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 2: that they can fundraise themselves. It's fascinating to watch Bernie

157
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 2: Sanders sit there and wag his finger when all he's

158
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 2: looking for is a sound bite so that he can

159
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: raise political money to his campaign fund.

160
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: Period. That's what it's all about.

161
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 2: Kennedy stays strong by the way and his objective, and

162
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 2: he later talked about the shift we must make to

163
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,959
Speaker 2: change our food and how we need to fix our ingredients,

164
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 2: which is so true.

165
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:01,600
Speaker 1: Here's what he says.

166
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 6: We're having epidemics of all these chronic illnesses, autoimmune diseases,

167
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 6: neurological diseases, allergic diseases, obesity. When my uncle was president,

168
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 6: three percent of Americans were obese. Today, seventy four percent

169
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 6: of Americans or overbes or overweight. No other country has

170
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 6: anything like this. In Japan, the obesity rate is still

171
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:36,200
Speaker 6: three percent, and epidemics are not caused by genes. Genes

172
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 6: may provide the vulnerability, but you need an environmental toxic

173
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 6: of something is poisoning the American people. And we know

174
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 6: that the primary culprits our food are changing food supply,

175
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 6: the switch to highly chemical intensive process of foods. We

176
00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 6: have ten thousand ingredients in our country foods. The Europeans

177
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 6: have only four hundred. If you buy McDonald's French fries

178
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 6: in our country, there is eleven ingredients. By understanding in Europe,

179
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 6: there's only three. If you buy fruit loops in our country,

180
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 6: they're loaded with food ties with yellow tie red eye

181
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 6: blue dye and many other ingredients. The same company makes

182
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 6: the same product with different ingredients for Canada and Europe,

183
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 6: and at agent we don't have good science on all

184
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 6: these things, and that is deliberate. That's a deliberate choice

185
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 6: not to study the things that are truly making us sick,

186
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 6: that are not only contributing to chronic disease, to mortalities

187
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 6: from infectious disease.

188
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,679
Speaker 1: You know, the real disease here is liberalism.

189
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: That's the real disease, the brain worm of liberalism. It's

190
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 2: been on display here with Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders

191
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: and all the rest. Kennedy is restoring hope back into

192
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: a healthy America to have healthy food and better ingredients.

193
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 2: And it's about time someone stood up for Americans to

194
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 2: protect what's.

195
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 1: Going on in our food.

196
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 2: Seventy four percent obese or overweight seventy four percent.

197
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: Senator Ben leuha I to ask.

198
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,199
Speaker 2: Some hard hitting questions about whether or not Kennedy supported.

199
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: Cutting medicaid back to this cunard. Listen, yes or no?

200
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 3: Do you support cutting Medicaid or reducing and especially in

201
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 3: an area where you and I spoke about, with the

202
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: Federal Investment in Medicaid, which is known as f ment.

203
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,199
Speaker 6: I'm going to call it a restroom. President Trump has

204
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 6: not told me to that he wants to cut Medicaid.

205
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 6: He's told me to make it better.

206
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: Do you support cutting yes or no?

207
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 3: Present let me ask you this way, since you're it's

208
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 3: only about.

209
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 1: President support, I'm making it better.

210
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 3: Senator, If President Trump asked you to cut Medicaid, will

211
00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 3: you do it?

212
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: It's up to book.

213
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: This is part of the game being played by the Democrats,

214
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: and it's so predictable. You see, there was a freeze

215
00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,439
Speaker 2: in spending, and so the Democrats quickly went out and

216
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: lied to the American people. Or they're going to cut

217
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: social Security, they're going to cut medicaid. Children are going

218
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 2: to die in Africa. They did all of these things.

219
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:19,679
Speaker 2: I'm not exaggerating. They did all of these things over

220
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours. Donald Trump today before he

221
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: signed the Lake and Rileyac said, no, not at all

222
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: what we're doing. It's not at all We've touched and

223
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,479
Speaker 2: he made it crystal clear we're not touching Medicare or Medicaid,

224
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: or social Security, or pay for soldiers, and he went

225
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 2: on down a long list of things that are not

226
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 2: being touched by any of this.

227
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: This is a canard, this is a lie.

228
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 2: This is misinformation and disinformation from those who claim to

229
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: despise it.

230
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: It's dishonesty from the left.

231
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 2: And he made it very clear why he wants this

232
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 2: position and shows exactly why he is the man for

233
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 2: the job.

234
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: Take a look at this.

235
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 6: I want to say something about what you first said

236
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 6: when I launched my campaign. It was about uniting America

237
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 6: and Democrats areas.

238
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: There's no issue.

239
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 6: That she united is more than this chronic health epidemic.

240
00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 6: There's no such thing as Republican children or Democratic children.

241
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 6: These are our kids. Sixty six percent of them are damaged.

242
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,679
Speaker 6: I know what a healthy kid looks like because I

243
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,760
Speaker 6: had so many of them in my family. I didn't

244
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 6: know anybody with a food allergy growing up, peanut allergy.

245
00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 6: Why do five of my kids have allergies? Why are

246
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 6: we seeing these explosions and diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, neurological diseases, depression,

247
00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 6: all these things that are related to toxic environment. Why

248
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 6: can't we just agree with each other to put differences

249
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 6: about so many issues, intractable issues, aside, and say we're

250
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 6: going to end this. I don't think anybody is going

251
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 6: to be able to do this like I have because

252
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 6: of my peculiar experience, because I've litigated against these agencies.

253
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 6: When you litigate against them, you get a PhD in

254
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 6: corporate capture and how to unravel it. I've written six

255
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 6: books about these agencies. I know a lot about them,

256
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 6: and I know how to fix it. And there's nobody

257
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 6: who will fix it the way that I do. Because

258
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: I'm not scared of vested interest. I don't care. I'm

259
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 6: not here because I want a position or a job.

260
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 6: I have a very good life and happy family. This

261
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 6: is something I don't need. I want to do this

262
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 6: because we're going to fix it. And the other thing

263
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 6: is we are attracting now a caliber of people to

264
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 6: HHS like never before in history. And they are entrepreneurs there,

265
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 6: they're disruptors, they're innovators of immense talents that are walking away,

266
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 6: many of them from growing concerns. They're not coming there

267
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 6: or position. They're coming there because they want.

268
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 2: Us, all right, So there's Bobby Cannedy. He's right, they're

269
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 2: attracting tremendous talent to ask questions. He wants to find answers.

270
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with that. We'll see if he survives the

271
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 2: nomination process. Now it'll be in the hands of the

272
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,320
Speaker 2: United States Senate. We'll see how many Republicans join the Democrats.

273
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 2: I think no Democrats will come across. We'll see after

274
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 2: the break. As we just talked about Kennedy's confirmation hearing

275
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: was today a lot of fireworks. Will talk about more

276
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,760
Speaker 2: of that coming up a bit later in the program.

277
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: This is America's voice line. Well, as we were sorting

278
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 2: through there at the top of the program, Robert F.

279
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior in front of the Finance Committee battling with

280
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: the left about particular vaccines, medicaid, medicare all of these

281
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,040
Speaker 2: other things attacked by Elizabeth Warren and attacked by Bernie Sanders,

282
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 2: among others, which is rich to me. These are two

283
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: of the people that make the most money from Big

284
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: Pharma for their campaigns for their political careers, and so

285
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: they sit there and say, are you not going to

286
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 2: sue big Pharma?

287
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: You'll be to discuss this.

288
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: As the director of epigenetics at the Wellness Company, Doctor

289
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 2: Ben Tapper, Doctor Ben, nice to see you here today. Look,

290
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 2: it is so rich to watch Elizabeth Warranty. Can you

291
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: promise me you want sue drug companies really, Liz, so

292
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 2: you can protect the five point two million dollars you

293
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 2: put in your conference already?

294
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it is outrageous, isn't it. It's absolutely criminal.

295
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 9: I mean, if you look at the top twenty members

296
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 9: of the Senate in Congress that have taken the most

297
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 9: amount of money from big pharma and the corrupt medical industry,

298
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 9: Elizabeth Warren's name is in that list. She has taken

299
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 9: She's in the top twenty for the most amount of

300
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,800
Speaker 9: money taken. And then she has the audacity to come

301
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 9: after Bobby Kennedy for this. I mean, are you kidding me?

302
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 9: They are terrified, and they make no mistake. Bobby Kennedy

303
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 9: is fighting for true health. He understands the real problem

304
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 9: at hand here, which is chronic disease, and he stands

305
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 9: for radical, transparent transparency. And they they are terrified of that.

306
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 9: Why because they'll be exposed for who they are. They

307
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,640
Speaker 9: are pharmaceutical shields. And it is blatantly obvious that they're

308
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 9: terrified of Bobby Kennedy's stance.

309
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:14,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, another place where Kennedy really shut down Bernie. We

310
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 2: didn't see this final related to the folks. Bernie Sanders

311
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,600
Speaker 2: demanding a yes or no answer about whether or not

312
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: having healthcare was a human right, whether it was a

313
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 2: human right, and Kenny says, well, it's not the same

314
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 2: as free speech, because if you don't smoke two facts

315
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 2: of cigarettes a day and yet up with lung cancer,

316
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,719
Speaker 2: is that a human right compared to somebody that did

317
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:33,400
Speaker 2: everything right.

318
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: I mean that's a.

319
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 2: Reasonable, honest, common sense response.

320
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: Isn't it.

321
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 9: Well, common sense is not so common with these people.

322
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 9: The problem is Bernie Sanders wants government control over healthcare.

323
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 9: He wants the healthcare to turn the DMV. We all

324
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 9: know the DMB is Satan's armpit, and really, you know,

325
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 9: a government healthcare is not the solution. I'm in healthcare,

326
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 9: and so how do I get paid if I'm treating patients?

327
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 9: I mean, I'm all for that from a heart and standpoint. Yes,

328
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 9: I understand Bernie Sanders heart he wants to provide health care,

329
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 9: but he is not in healthcare.

330
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: He is in government.

331
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 9: And once he wants to expand taxes, increase taxes to

332
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 9: cover healthcare. And I'm telling you we have a massive

333
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 9: problem with that because it's going to devalue the care

334
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 9: that we give patients, and you're going to have a universal,

335
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 9: communistic health care system, which nobody wants, and you're not

336
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 9: going to have the competition healthcare, which is a good thing.

337
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,359
Speaker 9: We need to lower our health care cost and I

338
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 9: agree with him on that, but having a healthcare as

339
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 9: a right, I understand that point. We need to have

340
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,679
Speaker 9: health care provided, but not by the government. I mean,

341
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 9: Thomas Jefferson said it best if the people let the

342
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 9: government decide what foods they eat, what medicines they take,

343
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 9: their bodies will be in sorry stateies those souls who

344
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 9: live in our tyranny. Government forum health care is not

345
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 9: the solution. In fact, we have too big of a

346
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 9: government and we need to downsize that and you know,

347
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 9: really go after our health care crisis, which is the

348
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 9: chronic disease crisis, and it really shift a paradigm from

349
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 9: a sick care model into a wellness model, which Bobby

350
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 9: Kennedy is doing well.

351
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 2: At least he's trying to do that. The question is

352
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 2: can we get there, because you're right. The way the

353
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 2: American healthcare system is geared, it's geared to deal with

354
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 2: chronic disease, whether it's diabetes or obesity, or heart disease

355
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:20,959
Speaker 2: or fatty liver, whatever it is. Well, they're set up

356
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 2: to give you pills and treatment and make lots of money.

357
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 1: But what about.

358
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 2: Heading that off before we ever get there? What about

359
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 2: just healthy behavior and preventative steps when you're younger to

360
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: eat well and take care of yourself.

361
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 1: Shouldn't that be the focus of healthcare? Absolutely?

362
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 9: Listen, you know eighty percent of Americans right now are

363
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 9: suffering with a chronic disease associated with poor lifestyle choices.

364
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 9: And all these people that are opposing rfk's chronic disease

365
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 9: narrative here, they're missing the mark here. They want to

366
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 9: push more drugs, more surgery, and more of what we have.

367
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 9: And that's not the that's not going to be the solution.

368
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,719
Speaker 9: We have an real epidemic, which is poor lifestyle choices.

369
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 9: And the solution is focused on good choices, eating well,

370
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 9: moving well, thinking well, praying well, and we can be

371
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 9: well focusing on lifestyle choices. In other words, your level

372
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 9: of health is the genetic expression of how we eat, move, think, pray,

373
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 9: and relate, and focusing on that is the solution. Every

374
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 9: choice you make has an end result, and so that's

375
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,119
Speaker 9: why we're shifting the narrative here. We're shifting from that

376
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 9: sick model into a wellness model.

377
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 10: And nothing wrong.

378
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 9: Thank God for the emergency care, crisis care. The nurses

379
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 9: and doctors in the emergency care, they're thet they're the

380
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 9: masters of crisis care. But we're neglecting the wellness model here,

381
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 9: which is the epigenetic model, which is healthy lifestyle choices.

382
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: Now, we're gonna have to see if Robert F.

383
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,120
Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior, if Bobby Kennedy gets through, because I'm going

384
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 2: to guess there are gonna be some Republicans that also

385
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 2: get big money from big farmer that are going to

386
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:49,400
Speaker 2: reject him.

387
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: They're going to vote. Now, we'll see what happens.

388
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 2: One other question before you go there, doctor Tapper, though

389
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 2: last week down Trump said we're out of the World

390
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 2: Health Organization.

391
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: It's corrupt.

392
00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 2: They didn't tell us the truth about COVID and if

393
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 2: other things, we fund it more than anybody else, even

394
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 2: though we're not the biggest country in the world or

395
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 2: the second for that matter.

396
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: What do you think about leaving the World Health Organization?

397
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,360
Speaker 9: I mean, we should have left it twenty years ago,

398
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 9: but I'm thankful that we're cutting ties with it. I mean,

399
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 9: the World Health Organization is a corrupt industry an organization.

400
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 9: If you look at a lot of the verbiage that

401
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 9: they're pushing for the Pandemic treaty, they're trying to silence

402
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 9: alternative voices and in the form of a pandemic and

403
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 9: use any authoritative means necessary during a pandemic. And they

404
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 9: want to be the police arm of the pandemic when

405
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 9: it comes to information, the gatekeepers. So the World Health

406
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 9: Organization has deep ties and their number one contributor of

407
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 9: finances is Bill Gates. And Bill Gates is not for

408
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 9: the people. He's not a friend to the people. He's

409
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 9: not a philanthropist like he's touting, and he listen, he's

410
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 9: a computer geek that is infiltrated and perverting his scope

411
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 9: of practice by pushing these vaccines and corruption on the people.

412
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 9: So we need to be on high alert. And I'm

413
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 9: applauding Trump for cutting ties with that. Now he needs

414
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 9: to cut ties with this. Larry Elliott and some of

415
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,239
Speaker 9: these other globalist people. So I'm all for it.

416
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 2: We'll see what happens next. Mary Ellison, I think from

Speaker 2: be a rare opportunity to clean up the tax code

434
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 2: to reduce the burden of taxation in American families? Or

435
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 2: could this be another big spending bill? It puts US

436
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: deeper in debt. That is the question before us here today.

437
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 2: Jeman and I have to discuss. This is the executive

438
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 2: vice president of the National Taxpayers Union, Brandon Arnold. Brandon,

439
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 2: nice to see you as always. And that's the question. Look,

440
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 2: they want to get rid of the debt ceiling for

441
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,159
Speaker 2: Donald Trump for a while. They say they have to

442
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 2: do that in order to be able to have the

443
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 2: flexibility to do what needs to be done to bring.

444
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 1: Costs and taxes and the debt and deficit down.

445
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,840
Speaker 2: I've heard this from my entire life. It rings a

446
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 2: bit hollow. I've got to be honest. So what's the truth.

447
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, I don't think we should lift the

448
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 11: debt ceiling unless we get commensurate reductions in federal spending.

449
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 11: That has been the best avenue we've had for more

450
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 11: than a decade now to get spending reductions into place.

451
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 11: They've been modest thus far, but even under Democratic presidents.

452
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 11: We got the Budget Control Act of twenty eleven under Obama,

453
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,479
Speaker 11: we got the Fiscal Responsibility Act last year under Guiden.

454
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 11: You know, these are modest improvements, but at least they're

455
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 11: rowing in the right direct Occasionally, all thanks to the

456
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 11: debt ceiling, So we should not scrap that without major

457
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 11: concessions from the left and from frankly, some moderates in

458
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 11: the Republican Party who don't like cutting spending.

459
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,959
Speaker 2: Are you concerned this big reconciliation package?

460
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 1: It could be one, it could be two. They're allowed

461
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: to this calendar year.

462
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 2: I believe if I'm reading the tea leaves and the

463
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 2: rules right, does it give you pause, Brandon that too

464
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 2: much stuff will be stuffed in there again as has been.

465
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: Going on your entire life and mind?

466
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 2: Or do you trust the process to have Donald Trump

467
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 2: and his people that are mindful, very mindful of protecting

468
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 2: the American taxpayer from more over spending.

469
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: What do you think happens? Yeah, I mean a little

470
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: of both. I am very worried.

471
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 11: I do have some confidence in our congressional leaders and

472
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 11: the Trump administration to craft a good bill, but it's

473
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 11: inevitable that there's going to be some garbage in there.

474
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 11: Our task, of course, is to be a good watchdog

475
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 11: over this legislation as it materializes, and to make sure

476
00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 11: we're providing appropriate levels of scrutiny because the problem right

477
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:03,879
Speaker 11: now is with such narrow margins in the House in particular,

478
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 11: but also in the Senate. Every single member of Congress

479
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 11: almost has a veto over the entire package, so they

480
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 11: can say, hey, we're not going to pass this bill

481
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 11: unless you have the salt provision that gives millions of

482
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 11: dollars to people in my district, or this small spending

483
00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 11: program that only benefits a handful of people in my district.

484
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 11: So inevitably, people are going to play their hands aggressively,

485
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,400
Speaker 11: and it's going to be on us to make sure

486
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,439
Speaker 11: that we're weaning out some of these bad provisions and

487
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 11: to make sure this bill is reducing the deficit, growing

488
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 11: the economy, and helping everyday Americans across the board.

489
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 2: Now, one of the keys, obviously for people that voted

490
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 2: for Donald trumpon for American families in general, is the

491
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:51,399
Speaker 2: extension of those twenty seventeen tax cuts. It's likely going

492
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 2: to be in those reconciliation package. How important is that,

493
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: Brandon in the overall skinned things, As far as.

494
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 11: Your concerned, it's colossally important. I mean you talk by

495
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 11: the individual level. Back in twenty eighteen, when the tax

496
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 11: bill took effect, about eighty percent of Americans received a

497
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 11: tax cut. The average tax cut was more than two

498
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,840
Speaker 11: thousand dollars a person. If we do not renew this,

499
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 11: we're talking about a much smaller child tax credit. We're

500
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 11: talking about higher rates for everyday Americans and small businesses.

501
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,640
Speaker 11: We're talking about a more complex tax boat. Of course,

502
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,800
Speaker 11: because the standard deduction was doubled, thus meaning that more

503
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 11: than ninety percent of Americans now can take the standard deduction,

504
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 11: a much easier way of filing their taxes than having

505
00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 11: to itemize and record all of those charitable contributions, mortgage interest,

506
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 11: all of the little minutia that goes into doing your taxes.

507
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 11: It's much simpler now because of Trump's twenty seventeen tax law.

508
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,320
Speaker 11: That all gets undone at the end of this year.

509
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,160
Speaker 11: If Congress can't get its act together, get a bill

510
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 11: to the president's test and see him enacted into law.

511
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,959
Speaker 2: A long way to go here, tax payers, Hang on

512
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:57,640
Speaker 2: your wallet.

513
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 1: I think it's good news.

514
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 2: I hope it's good news, and I want to see

515
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 2: those tax breaks continue, that's for sure.

516
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,159
Speaker 1: I give you the last word, Brandon.

517
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,879
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean, what we really need is a unified Congress,

518
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 11: a unified president. Right now, I was hoping that was

519
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 11: going to come out of the Miami conversations. There's still

520
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 11: a lack of clarity on the process with which they

521
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 11: proceed getting the budget signed and implemented, first of all,

522
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 11: and getting this massive reconciliation package put together. Lower taxes,

523
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 11: addresses the border, drives down the deficit, increases energy production.

524
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 11: It's a lot to put on the shoulders of Congress

525
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 11: and this president. But let's hope they can get it done.

526
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 11: Let's hope they can get it done. Brandon Arnold, thank

Speaker 11: you all right.

549
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 2: of Miami is finally requiring standardized testing for its applicants.

550
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 1: That's next in America's.

551
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 2: Voice Live, as we seem to be returning to normal,

552
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 2: I'll be right back.

553
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 1: Well.

554
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 2: The University of Miami is one of the latest colleges

555
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 2: are in say panvatory standardized testing, you know, actually having

556
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 2: to pass a test to get placed in college.

557
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: That standardized test score policy said to be put.

558
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 2: Back in place for any students applying during the twenty

559
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 2: twenty six undergraduate admissions cycle. Miami's website says the school

560
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,760
Speaker 2: will revert back to previous standards for admissions, seeing that

561
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 2: the university previously paused those test score policies as a

562
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: result of the COVID nineteen pandemic didn't make sense though,

563
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 2: now did it. University of Florida requires standardized testing, but

564
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 2: allows the students to take a classic learning test instead

565
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 2: of the SAT. Joining me now to discuss as a

566
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: campus reform reporter and student at the University of Florida,

567
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 2: Emily Sturge. Emily, and I see again.

568
00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,280
Speaker 1: Great to be back.

569
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 2: You know a lot of these universities during COVID just

570
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: took anybody. You didn't have to pass any test, just

571
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: to anybody who wanted to show up, as long as

572
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 2: you had one really important thing money, which makes me

573
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 2: think maybe it wasn't really about an education at all.

574
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: Am I wrong?

575
00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 12: No, you're right, and meritocracy is back. The Diversity of

576
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 12: Miami is among the list of colleges that are reinstating

577
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 12: standardized testing requirements that get this reward students based on

578
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 12: their merits, on their score on their individual achievement, rather

579
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 12: than DEI based admissions practices that reward students based on

580
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 12: their race or ethnicity, gender or even sexual orientation. Seems

581
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 12: like common sense to me and you, But this is

582
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 12: part of the national rejection that we're seeing of the

583
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 12: last four years. The national rejection of lowered standards and

584
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 12: woke ideology in their return to common sense.

585
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, return to common says, Look, how else would you

586
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,760
Speaker 2: place students if you have no idea their proficiency in

587
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 2: math or science or the ability to write and comprehend.

588
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 2: I don't know how you would do it without an

589
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: SAT or ACT or both.

590
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,480
Speaker 1: College placement tests have been.

591
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:01,360
Speaker 2: The way it's been done for decades, really, but this

592
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 2: is a return of normalization. So I tipped my hat

593
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 2: to Miami. Other schools are going to follow suit, I

594
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 2: would think, wouldn't you?

595
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 1: I do think so.

596
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 12: And let's think of how did this policy start. It's

597
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 12: a covid era policy. It started out of an abundance

598
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 12: of caution for health and safety and very quickly snowballed.

599
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 12: It went down this slippery slope right toward lowered standards

600
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 12: and declining academic ability. Merit was replaced with DEI. At

601
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 12: the Leadership Institute's Campus Reform, we reported how during this time,

602
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 12: when standardized testing practices were being taken away, universities like

603
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 12: Brown University shifted their focus to minority representation in admissions.

604
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 12: The University of California system did away lowered standards for

605
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,920
Speaker 12: their math requirements and the name of equity, which of

606
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 12: course is the code word for DEI. So after four

607
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 12: or five years of these lowered standards, it's very refreshing

608
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 12: to see this trend of universities reinstating merit based practices

609
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 12: that reward students based on their achievements rather than their

610
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 12: skin color.

611
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,240
Speaker 1: All right, greatly appreciate that, Alte. Thank you for bringing

612
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: us up to speed.

613
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 2: I think that we're on the right track, and I

614
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 2: hope we're on the road back.

615
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,160
Speaker 1: Thank you for spending time with us here today. I

616
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: hope so too.

617
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 12: Thank you so much for having.

618
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 2: Me greatly appreciate it. Up after the break done, go anywhere. Okay,

619
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 2: we're gonna go to Sean Duffy just sworn in as

620
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 2: the Secretary of Transportation with JD.

621
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: Vance here.

622
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 2: It is.

623
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: Well, good afternoon, everybody.

624
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 13: I'm thrilled to be here, of course, with our Secretary

625
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 13: of Transportations.

626
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:48,720
Speaker 1: All right, but I need to be clearing my.

627
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 13: Unful family, all nine kids. I joke that these guys

628
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 13: are doing their best to solve the fertility crisis in

629
00:32:54,640 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 13: the United States of America, and just a beautiful family.

630
00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 13: And it's really a testament and a credit to our

631
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,000
Speaker 13: great country that such a family is willing to serve first,

632
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 13: of course in Congress, and now it's Secretary of Transportation.

633
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 13: I think that I'm not being too mean to our

634
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 13: predecessors and saying that we spent a lot of money

635
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 13: in the last administration but didn't get a lot out

636
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 13: of it. And I think we're gonna have a Secretary

637
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 13: of Transportation here who is a much better steward of

638
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,959
Speaker 13: taxpayer dollars, but also make sure those taxpayer dollars are

639
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,600
Speaker 13: spent wisely and actually go to the places that the

640
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 13: administration needs them to go. So we're thrilled that you're

641
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 13: willing to serve, of course, thrilled by the President's nominating you,

642
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 13: and grateful to our Senate colleagues, especially Senator Blackburn Senator

643
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,479

644
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 13: just be the nominee, but now the actual Secretary of Transportation.

645
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 13: But first before that, you've you've got to take this

672
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 2: Make europgrade again, Mega, I guess is what we're gonna

673
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 2: call this a gathering of conservative leaders and thinkers from

674
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 2: across the continent, the movement gaining momentum, promoting national sovereignty,

675
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,839
Speaker 2: stronger borders, returned two traditional values.

676
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: Listen to this. So what are we doing out here day?

677
00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 14: We are informing everybody that there's an ongoing udeta in Romania.

678
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: We are protesting.

679
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,839
Speaker 14: We are showing here in the heart of Europe that

680
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 14: the elections were stolen in Romania, and we want three elections.

681
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 14: We want democracy, we want the trumpest waves not to

682
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 14: be stopped, and we want it all across Europe. We

683
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 14: have elections in poland also in Germany. So leave the

684
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 14: elections free.

685
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 2: There you go, now, Ben berkwam in Belgium right now

686
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 2: to set the scene for us. Ben, these folks seem enthusiastic.

687
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 2: They wanted some of what Donald Trump's selling had seemed.

688
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a clear excitement, enthusiasm for what's happened in America,

689
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 4: and really hope for them. I mean, it was pretty amazing.

690
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 4: I was watching the elections in Romania and I was

691
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 4: there speaking before the elections, and to see what happened.

692
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 4: They basically just canceled the elections. Never been done before

693
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 4: in Romania. And again Romania previously a communist country. They

694
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,960
Speaker 4: escaped that, and how so many people in that country

695
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 4: afraid that it's going to head back to that sort

696
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 4: of tyranny, and that's what they do not want. So

697
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,640
Speaker 4: people across Europe are really hoping, especially this mega contingent,

698
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 4: are really hoping that the Maga effect of President Trump

699
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 4: spills over here and we can and the woke agenda,

700
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 4: the transgender the seventy three gender ideology, the open borders,

701
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,520
Speaker 4: the Islamization of Europe, all of that, they're hoping that

702
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 4: they can bring that to an end, especially the Green

703
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 4: New Deal, Green New scams, all of that. I mean,

704
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 4: just to give you an idea, I went to a

705
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 4: little pharmacy today. I had to buy some deodorant. Seventeen

706
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 4: dollars for deodorant here, and they said it's gotten more

707
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:23,840
Speaker 4: expensive over the last couple of years since COVID. It

708
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 4: used to only be twelve dollars. I thought, it's just

709
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,880
Speaker 4: like everything. The inflation. We think inflation is bad in America,

710
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 4: it's double here.

711
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: Double. That's unbelievable. So what do you think the momentum is?

712
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,759
Speaker 2: And let me ask you this, You travel quite a

713
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 2: bit outside of the borders of the United States, more

714
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 2: than a lot of people. I know, what's the general

715
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:50,240
Speaker 2: opinion across all people of Donald Trump himself of America

716
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 2: today compared to where it was, you know, last year

717
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:53,720
Speaker 2: or the year before.

718
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 4: Well, you know, my gut in the the reactions you

719
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 4: get from people. I've been wearing my Maga hat everywhere

720
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 4: I've gone, except for you know, right now, obviously, but

721
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 4: everywhere I go. And I'd say it's just about as

722
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 4: polarized as you see in America. But there definitely seems

723
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 4: to be it's similar to what we have in America,

724
00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 4: a sense that, Okay, he's not hitler, it's not as

725
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 4: bad as the media made it out to be. Maybe

726
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 4: he was actually good. You look at how bad Joe

727
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 4: Biden is and how bad the policies of the left

728
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 4: have been. They say all the right things, but they

729
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 4: their policies are one hundred percent destructive. I think there's

730
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 4: a sense that, well, let's give him another chance. That's

731
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 4: my that's the feeling that I get.

732
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 2: All right, Well, it's an exciting time Donald Trump. The

733
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 2: Trump effect is global, Ben, you see it, I see it. Yeah,

734
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 2: it's good to be an American again, isn't it. I'll

735
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 2: give you the last word.

736
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 11: No, it is.

737
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,400
Speaker 4: I mean, we finally have hope again. You you know,

738
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 4: we've got a lot of work to do. This is

739
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,520
Speaker 4: not going to be easy. We've got fifteen million illegals

740
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,399
Speaker 4: to get rid of. But it's you know, it's we're

741
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 4: stopping the bleeding and I think that's there. We have

742
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 4: a lot to be hopeful for it. We just have

743
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 4: to get rid of the enemies within. So that's our

744
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 4: job over the next four years.

745
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 2: All right, Ben Berg kwam in Brussels, Belgium today.

746
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 1: I think he's coming back on tomorrow.

747
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 2: Ben, thank you very much, greatly appreciate that.

748
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 1: After the break. RFK Junior not the only one in

749
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill today.

750
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 2: Kelly Loffler is up there for the Small Business Administration.

751
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 2: She's going through confirmation hearings. We're going to dip in

752
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:36,720
Speaker 2: on that when we come back here on America's Voice Live. Well,

753
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 2: this is the way it's going to be in the

754
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 2: Trump administration.

755
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:39,359
Speaker 1: Busy all the time.

756
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: I do have a bit of breaking news for you, Senator,

757
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 2: former Senator I should say, Bob Menendez gold Bar Bob

758
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 2: of New Jersey has now been sentenced to eleven years

759
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 2: in federal prison for bribery and corruption charges. That's from

760
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 2: NBC clearing the wire. Just now case Ryding Menendez is

761
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,520
Speaker 2: selling his power in Washington for money, gold, luxury cars,

762
00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 2: and so on and so forth. Sounds familiar, doesn't it.

763
00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 2: Bob Menendez now on his way to prison for eleven years.

764
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 2: We're going to dip in now, I say. Kelly Loefler,

765
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 2: former senator from the state of Georgia, is up he

766
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:13,840
Speaker 2: being the head of the Small Business Administration. Here's her confirmation,

767
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 2: hearing Tim Scott of South Carolina speak.

768
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 15: Loves her country as much as anyone I've ever met.

769
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 15: Small business in rural America run through the thread of

770
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 15: the Leffler family. I love the story of her family.

771
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 15: She's a fourth generation farmer. Her grandfather had an eighth

772
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 15: grade education, her father a high school education. She worked

773
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 15: so hard that literally her hard work and her strong

774
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 15: value system made her the first college graduate and then

775
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 15: later she earned her MBA. Her story is frankly a

776
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,720
Speaker 15: story of remarkable success and one that we should all

777
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:57,240
Speaker 15: be thankful that America continues to create all across the country.

778
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 15: And one of the things that we oftentimes think of

779
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 15: when we think about success, and the American dream is

780
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 15: home ownership. For me, the American dream was achieved through

781
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 15: small business. So having someone to be the administrator of

782
00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,719
Speaker 15: the SBA who understands and appreciates small business, I have

783
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 15: a great passion for people like that, someone who's not

784
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 15: only wrote you know you were at the top of

785
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 15: the food chain in business, but frankly, I prefer the

786
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 15: part of your story that starts with a woman working

787
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 15: her way at minimum wage jobs and working your way

788
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,760
Speaker 15: up that ladder. We spend so much time talking about

789
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 15: the top of the ladder that we forget that most

790
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 15: of us have to climb that ladder rung by, rung

791
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 15: by wrong and you've done a marvelous job of doing that.

792
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,879
Speaker 15: One of the things I like to celebrate about her

793
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 15: time in the United States Senate after being appointed in

794
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 15: Georgia was that during the pandemic, we work closely on

795
00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 15: relief for families and businesses across the South. We fought

796
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,799
Speaker 15: to improve access to the CARES funds to keep Main

797
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 15: Street alive. You and I fought together to stop bad

798
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 15: actors from taking advantage of fraudrate loans, and we back

799
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:15,640
Speaker 15: President Trump's efforts to move supply chains from overseas, cut regulations,

800
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 15: lower taxes, and empower American entrepreneurs to succeed. By the

801
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 15: end of your term, you had passed half a dozen

802
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 15: bills into law and delivered forty seven billion dollars of

803
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,359
Speaker 15: relief funds to Georgia, to their employees, and to their

804
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 15: small businesses. Kelly's career has been nothing short of amazing,

805
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 15: proving that the American dream can be achieved through hard

806
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:46,960
Speaker 15: work faith with the right leaders in place. Kelly Leffler

807
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 15: is the right leader to put in place as the

808
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 15: administrator at the SBA. Her proven track record is why

809
00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,960
Speaker 15: we can have great confidence that the SBA will return

810
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 15: to the gold standard under your leadership. I'll just stop

811
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 15: there with my prepared remarks and simply say that as

812
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 15: a small business owner for fifteen years, I have great

813
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 15: confidence in your ability to do the job. To my

814
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,839
Speaker 15: fellow members of this committee, I hope that you'll hear

815
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 15: her out. But I'm also asking for you to vote

816
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 15: for because it is time for us to write the

817
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 15: ship to focus on the underserved communities around this country,

818
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 15: and to make sure that every single zip code in

819
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 15: this nation has strong powerful small businesses, because without small businesses,

820
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 15: we will have high unemployment and low enthusiasm. Thank you

821
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:46,440
Speaker 15: for your time.

822
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 16: Thank you, Senator Scott for that kind introduction. Now I

823
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 16: will note that the vote has started, So if we

825
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,480
Speaker 16: go vote now, please do so. Mss Leffler, if you

832
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:29,920
Speaker 16: So help you God. Should you be confirmed as administrator?

833
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 16: Are you willing to appear and testify before any duly

834

847
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 17: today as I was serving alongside many of you in

848
00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,239
Speaker 17: the US Senate, and I've appreciated the opportunity to meet

849
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 17: with you nearly every member of this distinguished committee in

850
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,720
Speaker 17: recent weeks. I'm especially grateful to President Trump for entrusting

851
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 17: me with the privilege and responsibility of serving America's thirty

852
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 17: four million small businesses. There is no stronger advocate for

853
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 17: these job creators than our President, and I share his commitment.

854
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 17: If confirmed, I worked tirelessly with him to make small

855
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,760
Speaker 17: business great again. I want to thank my incredible husband, Jeff,

858
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:10,440
