1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: So Donald Trump apparently has some regrets about the National Guard,

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: not they're politically targeted deployment to cities like Los Angeles, Chicago,

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: and Memphis, but regrets about not ordering them to seize

4
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: voting machines after the twenty twenty presidential election, which Donald

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: Trump decisively lost to Joe Biden buy more than seven

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,840
Speaker 1: million votes. In a new interview, The New York Times

7
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: asked Trump.

8
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: Why he did not follow through with the threat. His response, well,

9
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 2: I should have, adding they're good warriors.

10
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 3: I'm not sure.

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: That they're sophisticated enough in the ways of cricket Democrats,

12
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 2: in the way they cheat.

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 4: To figure that out, I've read both the Minnesota and

14
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:46,599
Speaker 4: Illinois lawsuits. They're really political diatribes masquerading as lawsuits. If

15
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 4: you look at what both states are asking the courts

16
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 4: to do, it's to kick Ice out of those states

17
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 4: and cities and to bar Ice from carrying on federal

18
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 4: law enforcement in Illinois and Minnesota. That's the top thing

19
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 4: both states asked to do, and they cite zero precedent

20
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 4: for that.

21
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 5: There is zero precedent for that. There is no way

22
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 5: a judge can say you federal law enforcement agency, you

23
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 5: are not allowed to execute federal law in a certain

24
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 5: state or city. I think the most that the states

25
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 5: could get out of this if they get sympathetic judges

26
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 5: is a judge who's going to ask questions of ICE,

27
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 5: who's going to hold hearings, who's going to demand questions

28
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 5: about how they're training, how they're carrying out their policy.

29
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 5: You also could have judges that issue sort of symbolic

30
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 5: orders along the lines of ICE, you are not to

31
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 5: violate the law. But that's already the case. It's already

32
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 5: not allowed for ICE to violate the law. So these lawsuits,

33
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 5: which appear to be coordinated, they're potentially powerful political statements,

34
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 5: but I don't give them much of a chance of

35
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 5: achieving the legal thing that they're asking for in the courts.

36
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 6: Even in today, an hour outside Minneapolis and Saint Cloud,

37
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 6: Trump's agents, dozens of them, tried to muster some kind

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 6: of military style show of force at a mini mall

39
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 6: parking lot in Saint Cloud, Minnesota. They were soon surrounded

40
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 6: by hundreds of local residents telling them to get out.

41
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 6: They were so overwhelmed with the way the neighborhood responded.

42
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 6: Trump's agents got stuck there in the mini mall parking lot.

43
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 6: A Democratic State senator had to intervene to ask the

44
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 6: crowd to please let the federal agents leave because they

45
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,800
Speaker 6: otherwise couldn't. Finally, after about an hour, people allowed these

46
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 6: tough guy massed agents to turn tail and leave with

47
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 6: their tails between their legs.

48
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 7: Our top story this hour, of course, the state of

49
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 7: Minnesota and the twin cities of Minneapolis and Saint Paul

50
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 7: are suing the Trump administration over a surge of federal

51
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 7: forces there. The lawsuit argues that federal agencies, including the

52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 7: Department of Homeland Security, have acted unconstitutionally and unlawfully by

53
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 7: violating the state's sovereignty and civil rights laws.

54
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 8: The American people are the most generous people in the world.

55
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 8: You just can't take advantage of us when immigrants come

56
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 8: here to learn which the road to drive on, customs

57
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 8: and laws to follow, and that you cannot steal from

58
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 8: the US government the way you did. Premier government.

59
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 9: What I hear is that he believes a mistake in

60
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 9: twenty twenty wasn't the big lie.

61
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 10: It was actually the restraint.

62
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 9: The mistake wasn't the lack of evidence, but the lack

63
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 9: of force.

64
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 6: The mistake the mistake was that he didn't bring the

65
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 6: system far enough.

66
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: I think he is telling us broadcasting very loudly, what

67
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 2: his strategy is for the next election.

68
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 8: I'm not talking about twenty twenty eight.

69
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 2: I'm talking about twenty twenty six and what he would

70
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 2: like to do or what he plans to do there

71
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 2: if things don't go his way. Ye.

72
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 9: I think we should be honest about it, and I

73
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 9: don't think that it's just a fantasy that's happening.

74
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 2: In his brain.

75
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 9: He tried in twenty twenty. He directed Ruli Giuliani to

76
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 9: go to the DOJ and DHS and to seize the

77
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 9: voting machines. Bill Barr said no, Ken Cucinelli said no.

78
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 9: They made it public. It was enough guardrails around him

79
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 9: at the time that said you can't do these things.

80
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 9: But right now, the person in charge of elections at

81
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 9: the Department of Homeland Security is Heather Honey. She was

82
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 9: a twenty twenty election conspiracy theorists. She just recently said

83
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,119
Speaker 9: that you can take extraordinary actions, including like seizing voting machines,

84
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 9: based on either things that they find from twenty twenty

85
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 9: or things that they haven't yet determined but will materialize,

86
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 9: So I mean there, it's not just Corump's mind here.

87
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 9: The pieces around him to facilitate these fantasies into reality

88
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 9: are there as well. That's what the last year has

89
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 9: demonstrated to us, and we should all just be aware

90
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 9: of it and acknowledge it and then actually start to

91
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 9: think about solutions.

92
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 11: Tell us what you think right now tonight the situation

93
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,799
Speaker 11: on the streets of Iran is and how a free

94
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 11: Iran will make a safer United States.

95
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 12: Well, thanks for having me, Laura. To your first question,

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 12: I think in the forty seven year failed history of

97
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 12: the Islamic Republic, I think that people of Iran have

98
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 12: never been closer to obtaining the liberty they enjoyed before

99
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 12: nineteen seventy nine. Second, in terms of what may or

100
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 12: may not need to be done about it, I think

101
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,000
Speaker 12: your point it's about the concern about how the United

102
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 12: States has proceeded with regime change are completely valid. But

103
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 12: I don't think there's any circumstance in which President Trump

104
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 12: is going to insert the United States into the equation.

105
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 12: I think, rather what he will do and has done,

106
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 12: is to set conditions so that the people of Iran

107
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 12: could establish and re establish control for themselves and take

108
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 12: control of their own future and destiny. And I think

109
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 12: he's done three and critical things to do it. He's

110
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,799
Speaker 12: applied economic pressure to restore it and to exacerbate the stress.

111
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 12: He's demonstrated they can't provide security instability working with Israel

112
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 12: in the operation of Midnight Hammer. And lastly, he's been

113
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 12: the first president to offer rhetorical support for the people

114
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 12: of Iran. And I think we're seeing the results of that.

115
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: This idea of Trump meddling in the twenty twenty sixth

116
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: election was laid out for me today in the Washington Post,

117
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 2: and they did I thought a great job of noting

118
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 2: a couple of things he's trying to change how these

119
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 2: midterms are going to play. I say he's already started

120
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 2: to do that, because he's already meddled in a number

121
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 2: of states. But some of the things pushing states to

122
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,559
Speaker 2: redraw house districts, demanding to end a mail mail voting,

123
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: acting voting machines, seeking millions of voters, private information staffing

124
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 2: the administration with elections skeptics, as you've just noted, and

125
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 2: deniers calling out the troops who are right now on

126
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: a lot of streets across the cities across the country.

127
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 3: But where are those cities.

128
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: They're in blue states right where the voting population is

129
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,840
Speaker 2: likely larger and going to turn out. So what if

130
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: you can cut that short on the front end, you

131
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 2: have to worry less about it on election day on

132
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 2: the back end?

133
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 3: Right?

134
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 2: Am I missing something here? Or is this part of

135
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 2: the authoritarian playbook simone less give us the history of

136
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 2: how they play the game. But the reality, folks, is

137
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 2: being played out right in front of you right now.

138
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 9: Now that there's rules writing, we see this international law

139
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 9: in the natural arena, might makes right, power and the

140
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 9: exercise of power to implement your ideas. Why does that

141
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 9: somehow not apply domestically? Everything so far as demonstrated that

142
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 9: is willing to do it. The one thing that I

143
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 9: would add to that list is that the misinformation engine

144
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 9: of Fox used in twenty twenty is quint compared to

145
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 9: the environment that we're in now. By the time we

146
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 9: move into the midterms, Larry Ellison will have control of TikTok.

147
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 9: CBS News is no longer a fixture. A whole bunch

148
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 9: of Trump entities have been buying up local media at

149
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 9: properties and aligning it. I mean the landscape to backfill

150
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 9: the narrative that Trump puts out there is way more

151
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 9: potent than we saw in twenty twenty. That doesn't mean

152
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 9: we're impotent and then we don't have any ability to respond.

153
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 9: There are just increasingly few levers and so there I think,

154
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 9: you know, now there's so what comes in and that

155
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 9: is you know, there are there are a few senators

156
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 9: that always express concern Republicans. They should be on the

157
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 9: record now that they're not gonna They're not going to

158
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 9: tolerate this stuff. They're not gonna put out statements, They're

159
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 9: going to change their party and callcuse with Democrats that

160
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 9: they start to see this kind of nonsense. They need

161
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 9: to start drawing red lines, and there's some political pressure

162
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 9: for them to do it. That's one lever of power.

163
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 9: It's not the body Billon end All. But we're going

164
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 9: to need to start putting antibodies into the system because

165
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 9: this is the reality that we are living and it's happening.

166
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 8: That's part of following the money. There are evidently some

167
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 8: disturbing tapes of a g Ellison in meetings with people

168
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 8: who donated to him them calling for political favors to

169
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 8: stop the investigations.

170
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 3: So we'll see.

171
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 8: But again I don't want to get out ahead of

172
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 8: the investigations. It is going to be very methodical, and Chris,

173
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 8: I can guarantee you when these when the bear trap snaps,

174
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 8: we're going to get these folks. And again we're going

175
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 8: to follow the money, whether it's all whether it's over

176
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 8: the two counties here in Minneapolis, Saint Paul's, or whether

177
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 8: it's the East Africa and there's tons of luxury properties,

178
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 8: cars that have been bought over there, and how the

179
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 8: hell did this happen? How did it happen? President Trump

180
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 8: is outraged. I'm outraged. The American people should be outraged.

181
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 13: December ead on Consumer Price Index, we're expecting a headline

182
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 13: number up three tenths of percent, and it delivered. That's

183
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 13: exactly what we received, up three tenths of a percent. Now,

184
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 13: if you look at the previous month in August, it

185
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 13: was up four tenths. September it was up three tenths.

186
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 13: So this fits right in. If you look at X

187
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 13: Food and Energy known as CORE, on a month over month,

188
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 13: it's a tenth cooler than expected.

189
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 3: It's up two tenths.

190
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 13: Now, if you look at year over year up two

191
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 13: point seven expected two point seven arrives. The one glimmer

192
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 13: here on the year over year is the core comes

193
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 13: in the tenth lights expectations. But the two point six

194
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 13: level is where we've been and my favorite numbers, and

195
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 13: they really are my favorite numbers, Joe.

196
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 14: If we look at the.

197
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 13: Index, the index on a non seasonly adjusted index, this

198
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 13: started in nineteen thirteen, the index number three hundred and

199
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 13: twenty four. And why is that important? Because once again

200
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 13: it's a new all time high pretty much not all

201
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 13: the time, but pretty much every month we'll get a

202
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 13: new all time high nineteen thirteen. And if you look

203
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 13: at the nineteen fifty seven rendition, which is the core CPI,

204
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 13: it comes in at three point thirty one and change.

205
00:09:58,679 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 3: And of course.

206
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 13: That's all also an all time all time hot.

207
00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty eight is on the chopping blocks as well.

208
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 2: I think the endgame is to if we can cancel it,

209
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 2: I get to stay in office. And that's with Venezuela

210
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: and Greenland and a whole lot of other stuff that's

211
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 2: going on outside your windows right now, folks.

212
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 3: This is the primal scream of a dying Regie Pray

213
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 3: for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people.

214
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 3: There's not got a free shot. All these networks lying

215
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 3: about the people. The people have had a belly full

216
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 3: of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I

217
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 3: know you've tried to do everything in the world to

218
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's

219
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: going to happen.

220
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 5: And where do people like that go to share the

221
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 5: big line?

222
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 15: Mega media?

223
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 3: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of

224
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 3: these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my

225
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 3: task and what is my purpose? If that answer is

226
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 3: to save my country, this country will be saved.

227
00:10:59,160 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 16: War.

228
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 15: Here's your host, Stephen K.

229
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 3: Bath Tuesday, thirteenth January. You're of a lower twenty twenty six,

230
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 3: as we've laid out here on the War Room over

231
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 3: the last couple of months. As President Trump and Secretary

232
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 3: Best since economic plan starts to kick in, and you

233
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 3: can see that getting traction and building up the radical Democrats,

234
00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 3: the Marxist Shiahattas that hate this country and have tried

235
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: to bring in or did bring in twenty to thirty million,

236
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 3: the legal alien vaders will get crazy and crazier. There

237
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 3: you see it all night long. It's President Trump setting

238
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 3: in conditions to steal the twenty twenty sixth election in

239
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,239
Speaker 3: the mid terms because now they ain't feeling so good.

240
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 3: They're not feeling so good. I told you, and told you,

241
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 3: and told you. As the economy starts to kick in

242
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 3: and we get affordability and all that crap off the table,

243
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 3: right and you've got growth, you have GDP growth, GDP

244
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 3: per capital growth, you've got job growth, you got real

245
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 3: wage just growth. They're going to get crazy. They're going

246
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 3: to get crazy and crazy or in more dangerous, and

247
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 3: you're seeing it every day. Let's get down to the baby.

248
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 3: By the way, President is en route. He'll leave here,

249
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,359
Speaker 3: I think shortly. Might I just left to go to Detroit.

250
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 3: He's going to visit some factories and some plants, talk

251
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 3: to some Ford Motor execs, I think others about manufacturing.

252
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,440
Speaker 3: That he's going to give a major dress at about

253
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 3: two o'clock Eastern Standard time. I believe to the Detroit

254
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 3: Economic Club that'll be a major economic dress. And yes,

255
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,959
Speaker 3: the Secretary Treasury is with him, Scott Bessen. I want

256
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,560
Speaker 3: to go now to Treasury to Joe LaVonne, John Joe,

257
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: I got a couple of minutes on this side. Just

258
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 3: teem me up and I'll hold you through the break.

259
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 3: The numbers this morning, I'd like them. I thought they're

260
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 3: pretty good it but it fits into the narrative that

261
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 3: you and the secretary have been talking about about it disinflationary,

262
00:12:57,640 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 3: disinflationary boom, sir, what are you?

263
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 17: Disinflationary boom?

264
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 9: Steve.

265
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 17: The last month, when the data came out to markets,

266
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 17: investors were surprised that the numbers were softer than expected.

267
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:09,679
Speaker 17: In The argument was that it was temporary, that you'd

268
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 17: see an acceleration or a payback if you will, in December.

269
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 17: That did not happen. The core CPI, which strips out

270
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 17: food and energy, for example, the three month rate of

271
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,880
Speaker 17: change remained at one six. There are a lot of

272
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 17: positives in the report. We're going to make significant further progress,

273
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 17: which is going to take a little bit of time.

274
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 17: So we counsel patients because we had a mess that

275
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 17: we inherited. But the point is the numbers on the

276
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 17: inflation side are trending powerfully in the right direction, and

277
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 17: of course the boom aspect you see in the GDP

278
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 17: numbers near five percent. Private sector GDP the last two

279
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 17: officially reported quarters. The wily filed Atlanta FED has growth

280
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 17: over five percent for the fourth quarter. That would take

281
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,440
Speaker 17: growth for the year despite the week Q one when

282
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,559
Speaker 17: Bam was in office, of over three percent. So when

283
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 17: we talk about a disinflationary boom, we're talking about surging GDP,

284
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 17: rising incomes inflation rate that starts to fall and doesn't

285
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 17: preoccupy people's concerns.

286
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,839
Speaker 3: Joe hanging for one second, We're gonna take a short

287
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 3: commercial break. I also think now more than ever, with

288
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 3: every couple of days, every couple of hours, gold and

289
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 3: silver hitting all time highs. You need to understand it.

290
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 3: Take your phone out, text Bannon b A N N

00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 3: in the age of Trump. It's not the aeron Trump,

00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,120
Speaker 3: it's the age of Trump. Check it out today. Most importantly,

296
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 3: talk to Birch Gold, Philip Patrick in the team. Trying

297
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 3: to get Philip on this afternoon. We're gonna have EJ

298
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 3: and Tony's gonna join us this afternoon to break down

299
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 3: more economic numbers in the President's major economic address to

300
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 3: the Economic Club of Detroit. Well, he will be this

301
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 3: afternoon with Secretary Treasury Scott besting back.

302

Speaker 15: E news. Of course, he waited till just before the

303
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 15: show started, and it's not with us right anymore. I'm

304
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 15: going to try to get through this. He has a

305
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 15: final message that he wanted to say, so I'm going

306
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 15: to try to read it, trying to be strong. If

307
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 15: you are reading this, things did not go well for me.

308
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 15: I have a few things to say before I go.

309
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 15: My body failed before my brain. I am a sound

310
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:44,080
Speaker 15: mind as I write this January first, twenty twenty six.

311
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 15: If you wonder about any of my choices for my

312
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 15: estate or anything else, please know I'm free of it

313
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 15: or inappropriate influence of any sort. I promise next. Many

314
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 15: of my Christian friends have asked me to find Jesus

315
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 15: before I go. I'm not a believer, but I have

316
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 15: to admit the risk reward calculation for doing so looks

317
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 15: so attractive to me. So here I go. I accept

318
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 15: Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and look forward

319
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 15: to spending an eternity with him. The part about me

320
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 15: not being a believer should be quite quickly resolved. If

321
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 15: I wake up in heaven, I won't need any more

322
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 15: convincing than that. I hope I'm still qualified for entry.

323
00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 15: With your permission, I'd like to explain my life. For

324
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 15: the first part of my life, I was focused on

325
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 15: making myself a worthy husband and parent as I find

326
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 15: as a way to find meaning. That worked. But marriages

327
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:22,479
Speaker 15: don't always last forever, and mine eventually ended in a

328
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 15: highly amnical way. I'm grateful for those years and for

329
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 15: the people I came to call my family. Once the

330
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 15: marriage unwound, I needed a new focus, a new meaning,

331
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 15: and so I donated myself to the world, literally speaking

332
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 15: the words out loud in my other why Silent Home.

333
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 15: From that point on, I looked for ways I could

334
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 15: add the most to people's life, one way or another.

335
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 15: That marked the start of my evolution from Dilbert cartoonists

336
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 15: to an author of what I hoped would be useful books.

337
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 15: By then, I believe.

338
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 3: Let me okay, let me take it.

339
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 15: I had enough life lesson.

340
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 3: Scott Adams, a real giant, died this morning, accepted Jesus

341
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,159
Speaker 3: Christ as Lord and Savior. At the end, somebody in

342
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 3: the Injine Room has told me it's like the thief

343
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 3: on the cross right, very powerful. Scott Adams, Uh, just

344
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 3: a great guy, Maga and really had the really had

345
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 3: a lot to say about this movement in the president

346
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 3: the United States and his suffering there at the end

347
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 3: pretty intense. But like you said in that in that

348
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 3: last statement, kept his brain. Scott Adams died this morning,

349
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 3: and we'll play that the entire He's got a show

350
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,880
Speaker 3: going on, or they're playing a show, and so we'll

351
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 3: cut into that a little bit later. Joe Lavrognier, you've

352
00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 3: talked about this strategy for growth. I kept telling everybody,

353
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 3: don't lose don't lose it. And people came out back

354
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 3: in those elections in November said everything in twenty six

355
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 3: is going to be about affordability. I said, no, it

356
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 3: is not. Just take a deep breath, you know, don't

357
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 3: get sucked into the Democrats narrative. There is a plan here.

358
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 3: It is a sophisticated plan, and the plan has scale.

359
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 3: In fact, we're sitting here on tenter Hoax right now

360
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 3: waiting for the Supreme Court to talk about President Trump

361
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 3: changing all the commercial relationships throughout the world and what'll

362
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 3: be called trade and through tariffs, okay, but the tariff aspect,

363
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 3: the commercial aspect, the trade aspect is one big piece

364
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 3: coupled with the supply side tax cut to incentivize capital

365
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 3: to pour back into this country and too high man

366
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: high value at AD manufacturing jobs. Hence why the President

367
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 3: United States is on a plane this morning. You're going

368
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 3: to go to Detroit and going to look at some

369
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 3: factories and look at the you know, because one of

370
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 3: the gages here is how many f one to fifties

371
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 3: one can sell? Right. President Trump's going to see all

372
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 3: that and then give a major address. A disinflationary boom

373
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 3: is not just jargon, It is the concept here. I

374
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 3: want to go back and make sure because I got

375
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 3: Rob Blewie on next from the Daily Signal. They've written

376
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:28,679
Speaker 3: a brilliant piece about how we get to a balanced

377
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 3: budget because part of the problem we have here is

378
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 3: still too much federal spending. The one of the ways

379
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: you get there is, wait for it, folks, GDP growth

380
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:42,479
Speaker 3: economic growth. This is a growth strategy. Scott Besson as

381
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 3: a contributor here on the show for years, sat as

382
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,959
Speaker 3: a contributor and said, we have one last shot to

383
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 3: be to have a supply side task cut, which is

384
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 3: driven on production and bringing manufacturing back. A part of

385
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 3: that is the key to that is growth is GDP growth,

386
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 3: wage growth, job growth. What you're seeing now, I want

387
00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 3: you explain the audience because this is not a concept

388
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 3: you heard during the Biden years, because everything was about

389
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 3: this massive federal spending that got us into this whole

390
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 3: The whole of inflation, the whole of this huge debt,

391
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 3: the interest payments we have to make on the debt,

392
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: was all Biden. Because the radical Democrats just believe in government.

393
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 3: They don't believe in private industry. So tell us the difference.

394
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,080
Speaker 3: The Atlanta Fed are putting up numbers that are shocking

395
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 3: how good they are about private company or private market

396
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 3: GDP growth. I just want to make sure the audience

397
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,400
Speaker 3: understands the difference because this will tee up brother Rob

398
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,800
Speaker 3: Bluie in his strategy to balance the budget.

399
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 17: Sir, if you take GDP growth domestic product and you

400
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 17: strip out federal side, which to your point, was booming

401
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 17: on an unsustainable track over the previous four years GDP

402
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 17: and Q two and Q three. President Trump's first two

403
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,479
Speaker 17: full quarters in office, the economy grew almost five percent

404
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 17: GDP excluding the government sector group actually four point eight

405
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 17: percent annualized over those two quarters. Fast forward to the

406
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 17: fourth quarter, which there was a government shut down. If

407
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 17: people worried the economy be depressed, the Atlanta Fed has

408
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:14,800
Speaker 17: GDP growth predicted at five point one percent. But related

409
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 17: to the President's reindustrialization, manufacturing policy and tariffs, the trade

410
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 17: deficit shrunk to its lowest level in the last month's

411
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 17: reading since twenty nine, two thousand and nine, as imports

412
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 17: plunged and exports went up. So you've got the private

413
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 17: sector that means business investment, household consumer spending in addition

414
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 17: to exports, and a rejuvenation and revitalization of manufacturing that

415
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 17: is driving growth faster. And as we look to twenty

416
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,359
Speaker 17: twenty sixty, when the Secretary talks about a boom and

417
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 17: the President's talks about a golden era, we're seeing it

418
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 17: in these data figures which are undisputably positive. And the

419
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 17: next piece that will come will be good, high paying

420
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 17: jobs that will be central to restoring the economy from

421
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 17: the sugar high, unsustainable government spending blowout that we've had

422
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 17: over the previous administration.

423
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 3: And of course the President yesday putting out executive is

424
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 3: talking about how they keep electricity, the whole thing with

425
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 3: data centers because right now AI, the only thing that

426
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 3: we're hurt on the jobs part is artificial intelligence taking

427
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 3: away some administrative, managerial and coding jobs for folks twenty

428
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 3: to thirty years old. And that's going to be an issue.

429
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,360
Speaker 3: But somehow President Trump and bestent will figure it out

430
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 3: and work around. Joe, where do people go go? Hit? Sir?

431
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 3: Go ahead?

432
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 17: Yeah, sure, it's just going to say, you know, you've

433
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 17: made an energy You know, people did not believe that

434
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 17: gasoline prices could fall well under three dollars a gallon

435
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 17: there around two seventy five to eighty. That's a huge

436
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,200
Speaker 17: tax cut for businesses and consumers. And the President's initiatives

437
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 17: on the utility side should also helps.

438
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 3: So it's all good news.

439
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 17: They can follow the Treasury Secretary at Sex Scott Besson

440
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,080
Speaker 17: at US Treasury, and then I can be followed at Lavornanomics.

441
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 3: Now and the presidents on a populist tear. He's dealing

442
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 3: with the mortgage issue, he's dealing with the affordability a

443
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 3: housing issue. He's getting into the big banks about capping

444
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 3: the interest rates at ten percent. He's all over full energy,

445
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: full spectrum energy dominance, and particularly dealing with these data

446
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,359
Speaker 3: centers to make sure they can't come back on the

447
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 3: grid in Torch, folks. He's all over. This is President

448
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: Trump is on a populous tear right now for economics,

449
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 3: and we love it. And it's even more to do,

450
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 3: but we love what we're soon so far. Joe, thank

451
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 3: you so much, and thank you Joe for putting the

452
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,920
Speaker 3: putting the intellectual framework the disinflationary boom that you can

453
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 3: see in the numbers right now. So thank you, sir,

454
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 3: appreciate you. Thank you. Rob Bloyd. Before we talk about

455
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 3: the plan, we got a minute or so before we

456
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 3: go to break it. Tell me about the Daily Signal.

457
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 3: It's one of the places I go every day. We

458
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 3: push the citizens free press and gave upon it all

459
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 3: the great sites out there that are free or not

460
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 3: behind a paywall. Give me a minute on Daily Signal.

461
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 14: Sir, Well, I got to hang out with Jordan yesterday,

462
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,280

Speaker 14: Pete Heggs that to Texas where Warroom is now live

464
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 14: and loaded. So Daily Signal was started about a decade

465
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,720
Speaker 14: ago by those of us SO who are at the

466
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 14: Heritage Foundation. And then when Joe Biden and the folks

467
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 14: in the White House took away our press credentials, we

468
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 14: became an independent media organization. But yeah, we are free,

469
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 14: we get we make sure our content is widely available,

470
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 14: and our goal is to translate the policy issues that

471
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 14: are happening in Washington for the American people. And that's

472
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 14: why we love partnering with people like EJ. Antoni, who

473
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 14: I know is a regular on war Room to help

474
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,719
Speaker 14: explain economic issues in ways that the American people can

475
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 14: understand and also put the pressure on members of Congress

476
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 14: and other lawmakers to do the right thing.

477
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: Hang right there, because you take policy seriously as we do,

478
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 3: and you've broken down how do we get to balanced budget?

479
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 3: Because the other aspect, if you get this growth going,

480
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 3: you've got to cut federal spending somehow. By Hooker Kirk,

481
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 3: we got to get we've got to make sure we

482
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:14,400
Speaker 3: take care of these deficits, because that's Damacles's sword over

483
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 3: top of not just future generations, but you in this

484
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 3: audience now, more than ever market's been turbulent, but you

485
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 3: know it's quite interesting as I said, I'm quoted in

486
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 3: Bloomberg today. Yes I am on the terminal. I said, Hey,

487
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 3: the equity market, in the bond market, bomb market, a

488
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 3: little choppie, I say, but no big deal. I think

489
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 3: they've got the back of President Trump on this fight

490
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 3: with the central banks. President Trump is not just about

491
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 3: the inquiry into the his and testimony of Pale. This

492
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:48,959
Speaker 3: is President Trump going full Andrew Jackson on the Central Bank.

493
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: Jackson did it on the Bank of the United States.

494
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 3: President Trump's doing on the Federal Reserve. Short commercial break,

495
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 3: Rob Bloyd, Tom Fitton, Alex de Grass next.

496
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 18: Certainly the Court could do that, your honor. The Court

497
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 18: has not done that before, as I think we both agree,

498
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 18: and the result of that would be judge made exceptions

499
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 18: laws anytime.

500
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 3: Right now the Supreme Court, there is a major case

501
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 3: that's about transgender This is about guys in women's sports,

502
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,640
Speaker 3: not transgenders anyway, it's guys in women's sports. It's being

503
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 3: argued that the Supreme Court Terry Shelling is going to

504
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 3: be on later. In fact, we're changing out to Gross

505
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 3: is going to joint see that tonight tomorrow, because we've

506
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 3: got to get chilling in here. About this topic, and

507
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 3: we will do that momentarily. Back to Rob Lewie, Rob,

508
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 3: first off, layout the case, this is actually a proposal

509
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 3: that's out there. I think it's from the republic Is

510
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 3: this the Republican Study Committee's take on this, this ten

511
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 3: year budget to get to get to break even at

512
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:51,040
Speaker 3: ten years?

513
00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 14: That's right, Steve. The Republican Study Committee traditionally puts out

514
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 14: their budget first, but now you can expect others to

515
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 14: start releasing their budgets as well. Some individual members of

516
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 14: Congress do that. Of course, the President and the White

517
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 14: House will do that. And I think the thing that's key,

518
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,760
Speaker 14: as you and Joe were talking about previously on the show,

519
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 14: is the uncontrollable spending that we've witnessed, particularly during four

520
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 14: years of Joe Biden. But I mean, let's not discount

521
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 14: George W. Bush and Barack Obama and others who contributed

522
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,199
Speaker 14: to this problem. When George W. Bush left office, the

523
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 14: national debt was about ten trillion dollars. Today is thirty

524
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 14: eight trillion dollars. I mean, so you can just imagine

525
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 14: what's happened in the course of those presidencies. And the

526
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 14: Republican Study Committee is vowing that they can get it

527
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 14: balanced in a matter of ten years. Now that's just

528
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 14: making sure that there's no deficit, no more money added

529
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 14: to that debt.

530
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:45,479
Speaker 3: Now, how do we do that?

531
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 11: Now?

532
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 3: The presidents came out and said he wants a one

533
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 3: point five trillion dollars defense budget, of which we love

534
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 3: the military and loved the president. We're we're not fans

535
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 3: of that, but let's leave that aside. And the Republicans

536
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 3: Study Commission peebshrow is it's a huge entity. It used

537
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 3: to be kind of the center right. It's not full

538
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 3: MAGA because it's got a lot of I would say

539
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 3: moders in there, but it's a kind of center right group.

540
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 3: But for years they've been going through this exercise, and

541
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 3: I think it's a good bell whether to kind of

542
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 3: get it as a baseline, just walk me through mechanics

543
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 3: of how do you go roughly from we got five

544
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 3: You know, Scott Besson's the uh, we're gonna have Text

545
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 3: Network USA on here today to talk about that. Scott

546
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 3: Besson's overseen the IRS and Scott's got a mandate to

547
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 3: squeeze every penny he can possibly get. But you have

548
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 3: a two treeon dollar deficit. It looks like you have

549
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 3: a two five and a half tree and coming in

550
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 3: seven seven and a half tree and going out. How

551
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 3: do they propose to close that?

552
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,480
Speaker 10: Sir well, And first to your point about the Republican

553
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 10: Study Committee, I believe they have one hundred and eighty

554
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 10: nine members, and right now there are two hundred and

555
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 10: eighteen House Republicans, so pretty much includes a.

556
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 14: Vast majority of House Republicans. And so by them putting

557
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 14: their weight behind it, you would hope that that would

558
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 14: signal that they're serious about cutting governments. But Steve, you

559
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 14: and I both know, because President Trump tried to do

560
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 14: this upon taking office last year, how difficult it is

561
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 14: when you actually get into the process of eliminating government

562
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 14: programs and reducing that deficit that you talked about. And

563
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 14: so what the Republican Study Committee is attempting to do

564
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 14: here is to go through department by department and eliminate

565
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 14: what areas that they think are duplicative, wasteful, try to

566
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 14: find efficiencies throughout the government. Obviously, the President adding you

567
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 14: know this one point five trillion for the Pentagon will

568
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 14: be a hurdle that lawmakers in Congress will have to overcome.

569
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 14: But I think just like you and I are expected

570
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 14: to balance our budget on a monthly basis, we should

571
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 14: expect the same of our congressional representatives. And Republicans have

572
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 14: for years, if not decades, promised that they were going

573
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 14: to do this, all the way going back to the

574
00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 14: Tea Party when this issue first surfaced and became such

575
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 14: an explosive topic among you know, conservatives in particular. I

576
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 14: think it's really upon them to do so. And again,

577
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 14: to go back to the point that Joe and you

578
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 14: were making earlier, the spending that we saw during the

579
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 14: Biden years contributed to the inflation crisis that the American

580
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 14: people faced. Now, Scott Bessend and Donald Trump have done

581
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 14: Yellman's work to bring those levels down, the levels of

582
00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 14: inflation down. But think about how much more progress we

583
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 14: can make and the economic juice we can give them

584
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 14: this White House if we were able to also reduce

585
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 14: government spending.

586
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 3: But isn't a charade because what we're seeing out of Minneapolis,

587
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 3: the federal part of that was all approved by you know,

588
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 3: since since Johnson's been Speaker and McCarthy's been Speaker, since

589
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 3: we've taken the House in twenty twenty two, there's been

590
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 3: a number of budgets, all of that spending, all that

591
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: spending was approved and including I'm finding out now the

592
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 3: National en downmod for Democracy, which has gone out of

593
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 3: its way to shut down conservative voices. I mean, just

594
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 3: horrup they've got in this budget currently, I think it's

595
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty million dollars. So how can people

596
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 3: take credibility from the House and look, I'm calling the

597
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 3: House now, I have been for six months the Duma

598
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,800
Speaker 3: because it's just all performative. How do they get around

599
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 3: the fact that everything, every everything we're seeing with the

600
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 3: som Allians, and it's worse than that. You know, we're

601
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 3: gonna have David Hoke on here probably tomorrow when he

602
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 3: releases his new report. The Samalian thing. You see now

603
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,520
Speaker 3: it's actually ten x when you look at all the programs,

604
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 3: and it's in every state, particularly California and New York,

605
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 3: which is worse. This is the business model of the

606
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 3: radical Democrats, right, They get the illegal aliens in here,

607
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 3: they get these bogus legal immigration, then they get them

608
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 3: on welfare programs they are stealing and this is this

609
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,239
Speaker 3: is their this is their Tamney Hall vote getting. So

610
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 3: how can people take seriously the Republican study committees, which

611
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 3: I'm all for. I mean, my point is, let's do

612
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 3: it in five years, not ten, because you're going to

613
00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 3: have the economic growth that GDP growth underneath it to

614
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 3: actually make this thing doable. But when Congress that we've

615
00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 3: had since twenty two approved budgets that have gone and

616
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 3: led to this Samayan thing, and the Republicans look the

617
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 3: other way. You saw those fights. You see him on

618
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 3: the floor in the middle of the night when they're

619
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 3: going through the appropriations. You got Eli Crane and people

620
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 3: out there, you know, Andy Biggs, the budget hawks, the

621
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 3: deficit hawks, arguing we got to cut these programs and

622
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: the Republicans are worse than the Democrats and just kicking

623
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 3: the can down the road.

624
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 14: Sir Steve, There's so much I want to say there.

625
00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 14: So first of all, one of the things that first

626
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 14: got me into this fight was the move way back

627
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:36,160
Speaker 14: when in the two thousands, when people like Tom Coburn

628
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 14: and Jim DeMint and others were rallying against ear marks

629
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 14: and we were able to successfully stop ear marks in Congress. Now,

630
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 14: earmarks is a grand scheme of things. Didn't really you know,

631
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 14: make that much of a dent in the budget deficit. However,

632
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 14: it was an important step because everybody talked about earmarks

633
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 14: as the gateway drug to more spending, and if you

634
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 14: got rid of ear marks, then maybe Republicans would start

635
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 14: to make other changes to those well for our programs.

636
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 14: You're absolutely correct. The fact that we've had millions of

637
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 14: illegal aliens come into this country and now take benefits

638
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 14: that should go to the American people is a huge

639
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 14: problem and needs to be addressed. But yes, even look

640
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 14: at these recent budgets, and I go back to a

641
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,840
Speaker 14: conversation I had with Russ Vode, who was the director

642
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 14: of OMB during President Trump's first term and is again,

643
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 14: and he said, oftentimes the problem lies exactly where you

644
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 14: just placed it, Steve. It's with Congress. They refuse to

645
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 14: make the tough choices and the budget cuts. And that

646
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 14: has been a consistent theme going all the way back

647
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 14: to when Republicans had control, even in President Trump's first term.

648
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 14: And so I hope that they can move at a

649
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,280
Speaker 14: pace where they balance the budget within five years. Maybe

650
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 14: we should we should demand that they have an even

651
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 14: aggressive timeline, because it's going to only help President Trump

652
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 14: achieve what he wants on Scott Bessen have the economic

653
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,800
Speaker 14: growth that they think is possible.

654
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 3: I'll talk to you after the show and we'll put

655
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 3: some different assumptions on economic growth. And Rob lewis daily

656
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 3: signal in the war and will come up with a

657
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 3: five year plan. But here's where they catch us every

658
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 3: time is when they want a defense budget increase, which

659
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 3: is really the industrial policy of the United States. Let's

660
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 3: sleep b one about it's industrial policy the United States.

661
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 3: So every time we want a defense department increase, we've

662
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 3: got to accept some percentage social program increase. And the

663
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 3: catch is you can't go and really look at the

664
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,560
Speaker 3: social programs. That's the Democrat slush fund of how they

665
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 3: stay in business. If you choke that down and cut

666
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 3: it off, they're out of business. That's their business model,

667
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 3: their business. A little starter cash is put up by

668
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 3: the sources and those guys right and these NGOs that

669
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 3: that's to get the field troops out there. But the

670
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 3: way they fund it, because they're not going to fund

671
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 3: all of it, is on taxpayer money. And those tax

672
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,759
Speaker 3: payer moneys are all through these social programs. And when

673
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 3: the Defense Department, when you want to increase defense budget,

674
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 3: SACKERSANCT is the social As you know, Rob, the social

675
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,919
Speaker 3: program's got to go up. But most importantly they won't

676
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 3: let you get under the hood of the social programs.

677
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 3: What Minneapolis is showing is the business model of the

678
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,759
Speaker 3: Marxist of the Red Green Alliance. It's right there in

679
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,359
Speaker 3: living color in war Room. Texas one of the things

680
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 3: are drilling down on. We don't really even have a

681
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 3: handle yet on what Texas the state of Texas, in

682
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 3: the federal government, there's one number out. There's four billion

683
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 3: dollars of state and federal money have gone to build

684
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:29,439
Speaker 3: Mosque Islamic Center's school choice for the Islamics thing. That's

685
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 3: their business model, if we can lance that Boil and

686
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 3: I remember because of Breitbart. As you know, Rob, we

687
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,160
Speaker 3: partner with you all the time. They fight the years

688
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 3: we fought for ear marks, and you're right overall it's

689
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 3: a small part, but it was a gateway drug to

690
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 3: bigger spending. Now they've gone back and they're doing ear

691
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 3: marks like crazy. So we have a big fight in

692
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 3: front of us, Rob, But we'll partner with you because

693
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 3: right now, the reason the legislators don't take it seriously

694
00:36:56,239 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 3: is that it's still financiable at some point the the

695
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 3: in twenty thirty five, I think you look at the

696
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 3: ten year budget, it's two point five trillion dollars annually.

697
00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 3: Just for the interest payments, it's over two trillion dollars.

698
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 3: So when this hits, it's going to hit like a

699
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 3: punch from Sonny Liston right up in your face, and

700
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 3: you're not gonna be able to recover from it. Rob

701
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 3: blew at your thoughts, sir.

702
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,439
Speaker 14: Yes, And I think the other important thing to point

703
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:25,879
Speaker 14: out is that when you have strong economic growth under

704
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 14: a president like Donald Trump and a Treasury Secretary like

705
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 14: Scott Bessont, it's it's perhaps not necessarily the most glaring

706
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,120
Speaker 14: thing that's staring you in the face, but with a

707
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 14: Democrat in control who's only going to pour gasoline on

708
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 14: that fire and probably not have the type of economic

709
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,680
Speaker 14: growth for our country. Yes, Steve, you're absolutely correct that

710
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 14: it is going to be a serious challenge that we will.

711
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 3: Have to confront.

712
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,279
Speaker 14: And who is it going to impact most Probably those

713
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 14: young people who are entering the workforce and are staring

714
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 14: at years to try to pay down this huge debt.

715
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 14: You know, to go back to an earlier point that

716
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 14: you said, you know, what's the old quote. You know,

717
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 14: once you have a government program, it's impossible to actually

718
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 14: remove it or eliminate it. And and that is true

719
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 14: as we saw with with Obamacare and these these subsidies, right,

720
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 14: I mean, the Democrats put that into places. Why for years, uh,

721
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 14: we as conservatives tried to repeal Obamacare and get it

722
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 14: out of the government because we knew that this was

723
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,399
Speaker 14: going to be a situation where eventually the government would say, oh, oh,

724
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 14: we'll take care of you. Don't worry, We'll just put

725
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 14: more subsidies on it. And then you end up with

726
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 14: a situation like we're in now, where nobody wants to

727
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 14: give up their subsidies and somebody's going to have to

728
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 14: be the bad guy. And too often that falls on

729
00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:40,680
Speaker 14: the feet of the Republicans who in some case there's

730
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 14: too weak need to to say no, and you have

731
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 14: a situation where it goes on in perpetuity. And so

732
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 14: I understand they have a narrow margin in the House.

733
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,959
Speaker 14: It shrunk even more at the beginning of January unfortunately,

734
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 14: But there are some tough calls they need to make.

735
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 14: And by the way, Steve, they can start this month,

736
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 14: because let's not forget that the government funding runs out

737
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 14: on January thirtieth, and there's an opportunity to make some

738
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 14: cuts to the federal government right now, right here, and

739
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 14: now let's do it.

740
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 3: Rob We got about a minute, and Tom Finnon's going

741
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 3: to talk to us about voting clean up the roles

742
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,040
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six and what it means. So the

743
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,359
Speaker 3: Great Tom Finton's going to join us. But I think

744
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 3: right now we're heading to a government shutdown because I

745
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 3: think the Democrats are sitting there going to dig in

746
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 3: and say, hey, we're not going to fund ice. So

747
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,440
Speaker 3: that's going to be a big fight. And my point is,

748
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 3: bring it if that's what you're going to say, if

749
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,080
Speaker 3: that's what you are for, if you're for no deportations

750
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 3: and open borders and all this. Because it's a harder

751
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,880
Speaker 3: business model, right, let's let's just get it on and

752
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 3: come back with a bunch of cuts and show them

753

778
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:05,360
Speaker 16: Critically. Everyone agrees that for sports for ninety nine percent

779
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:09,000
Speaker 16: of men, it's reasonably tailored. Is just the one percent

780
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 16: of transidentifying individuals who take drugs and then those drugs

781
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 16: are effective. That's problem when this court's decision and Michael

782
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 16: m makes clear that that's not a viable as applied claim,

783
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:23,279
Speaker 16: And Michael M. This court upheld a statutory rape law

784
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 16: that applied differently to men than women, and the rationale

785
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 16: was because women faced a unique risk of pregnancy. But

786
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 16: of course, if either the male rapist or the female

787
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 16: victim was infertile, there'd be no pregnancy. So on their theory,

788
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 16: you could have come in and said, well, I have

789
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 16: an as applied claim that I was an infertile, so

790
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 16: it was okay to rape the underage girl. And this

791
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 16: court not only rejected that, the court said it would

792
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 16: be ludicrous, ludicrous to say that you could bring an

793
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 16: as applied claim for prepubescent girls. That's just not the

794
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 16: way as applied scrutiny works in intermediate scrutiny cases. That's

795
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 16: equally true, as my friend said and win in the

796
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 16: court's decision, and when the justification for the law was

797
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:08,600
Speaker 16: making sure that the parent knew that they were the

798
00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 16: parent and had an opportunity to have a relationship with

799
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 16: the parent. But when the win's father knew about the

800
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:18,239
Speaker 16: birth was present with when the whole time and brought

801
00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 16: when to the United States. Nevertheless, the court held for

802
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 16: the class of men overall. It was reacent tailored and

803
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 16: they weren't going to focus on the specific facts of when.

804
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 3: You started, mister Mubon by saying, this is how insane

805
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 3: these people are. This about men, these transgender freaks in

806
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 3: women's sports. Now, I will give you an example for

807
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 3: my own personal life. It's it's mos a little girl.

808
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 3: You know, she played all the different sports and I coached.

809
00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 3: I coach her in basketball. She played swarmball or soccer baseball,

810
00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:03,400
Speaker 3: which was excellent, made the regional team in baseball basketball.

811
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 3: She played high school for a while, but volleyball was

812
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 3: her big love and being a setter, and she went

813
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 3: to a school called American Martyrs and Manhattan Beach and

814
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:18,800
Speaker 3: Manhattan Beaches where karch Karai and the Beach volleyball Olympic

815
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 3: team trains, so she was right there. All the coaches

816
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 3: at this Catholic grade school were had played at USC

817
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 3: or UCLA, and a lot of those people were either

818
00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 3: Olympic people are people started at the top programs in

819
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 3: the country. So she was trained from as a very

820
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,560
Speaker 3: little girl to that. And then she got started and

821
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,880
Speaker 3: they had a championship team at American Martyrs for the

822
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,600
Speaker 3: Catholic League and for the state league. And then she

823
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 3: went to a big time prep school that specialized one

824
00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 3: of the big specialties was women's sports, and she played

825
00:43:50,239 --> 00:43:54,359
Speaker 3: volleyball there under an incredible coach. People would come from

826
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 3: all over to play for this coach. But in volleyball,

827
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 3: as many of these sports, it's not really the school

828
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:01,120
Speaker 3: system that does it. It's club teams because people could

829
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:02,640
Speaker 3: be in a school district that's just not going to

830
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 3: be competitive with club teams. And these club teams are

831
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 3: as close to a professional athlete as you can get.

832
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 3: I mean, it is a year round. They want you

833
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 3: to drop other sports and totally commit. And if you

834
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,200
Speaker 3: want to play a big school Division one, right, you

835
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 3: got to commit and you go to these massive things

836
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 3: over the weekends. Right, I'm talking out one hundreds, hundreds

837
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 3: of teams in Vegas and in Arizona in California, and

838
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 3: you'd sit there and watch these little girls and the parents.

839
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,720
Speaker 3: It's a way out. You see the Hispanic, the working class, white,

840
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 3: the black, and it's a way out. It's a way

841
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 3: to get a ticket punched. It's a way to get

842
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 3: your ticket punched to Division one or some ride a

843
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,480
Speaker 3: division school to school, and I mean grade school is

844
00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 3: like the Lafayettes and the Hamilton Colleges, the Union colleges,

845
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,759
Speaker 3: these schools back East that recruit these kids NonStop. You

846
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 3: go to the recruiters non stop, and these kids are dedicated.

847
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 3: They put in hour after hour after hour. It's intense.

848
00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 3: It's competitive, building up the spirit of the American people

849
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 3: and doing it. This is the stick to it inness,

850
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 3: this is the grid, this determination. Are you kidding me?

851
00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,439
Speaker 3: You're gonna let men compete with these girls that they're

852
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 3: striving to achieve their goal. It's re vaulting. And I

853
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 3: don't want to hear about some freak that thinks he's

854
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 3: a girl. That's his problem and that's his freaking parents problem.

855
00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 3: And now you've got to go all the way up

856
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 3: to the Supreme Court and like give this official status.

857
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 3: Are you kidding me? This is how insane the left is.

858
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 3: Naomi will is gonna be up in a moment and

859
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 3: she's gonna tell you is Naomi, I got you off

860
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 3: for something different. But go up and tell you this

861
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 3: thing is driving me nuts because I'm no feminists, but

862
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 3: I saw in sports the way for the working class

863
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 3: kids of all races to get a ticket out and

864
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 3: to hear this thing that you let boys come in

865
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 3: and compete with them. It's a freak show. Why are

866
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 3: we putting on these little girls, these becoming women and

867
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 3: the type I mean, aggressive, tough, stick to it, there's

868
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:12,440
Speaker 3: no quit. Every American quality you want, right, what title?

869
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,480
Speaker 3: And I was supposed to do. And actually I saw

870
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: that because my sisters my dad was great athlete, my brothers,

871
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 3: my sisters weren't great athletes because that just wasn't the

872
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 3: thing you did back then. It's totally different now, and

873
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 3: yet we have this freak show, and that's what it is.

874
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 3: It's a freak show. Ma'am.

875
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 19: Well, I don't agree with you that people who identify

876
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:38,799
Speaker 19: themselves as transgender are freak shows or freaks. I don't

877
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 19: think that's helpful. Language doesn't help us understand each other.

878
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:47,799
Speaker 19: But I definitely think that men who are seeking to we.

879
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 3: Can disagree with that, we can disagree with that, but

880
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 3: in my small mickbrain, they're freaks, But continue on. I

881
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 3: understand that, I understand continue on.

882
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 19: Sure, but I definitely think it's more even more serious,

883
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 19: right than you know, name calling, that men who are

884
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 19: seeking to compete in women's sports are engaging in really abusive, intimidating,

885
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 19: and inappropriate behavior on many, many levels. It totally violates

886
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 19: the title nine. And then going down to the level

887
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:23,879
Speaker 19: of minors. I think you are a feminist in spite

888
00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 19: of yourself, Steve, because you know, no one I've heard

889
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:31,640
Speaker 19: yet outside of very small group of women like Jennifer Say,

890
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,760
Speaker 19: the former I think olympian athlete who's been very vocal

891
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 19: about this, has expressed so well what the injustices are

892
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,239
Speaker 19: as you just diet. You know, again, in spite of

893
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,040
Speaker 19: your commitment to not being a feminist, that's a very

894
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 19: feminist set of empathic comments you made about the struggles

895
00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 19: of girls, and you're a thousand percent correct. It's girls

896
00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 19: from low income neighborhoods, it's girls from the barrio, it's

897
00:47:55,600 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 19: girls from you know, middle class, hard working, working class backgrounds,

898
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 19: and this is their one shot. They're not gonna come

899
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 19: up with sixty thousand dollars a year to you know,

900
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 19: pay their families won't pay for that college education. If

901
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,480
Speaker 19: they want a college education, it's going to be through

902
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 19: that hard work, that effort, that grit, as you put it,

903
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 19: of playing a sport and excelling. And the minute you've

904
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 19: got a guy in a dress or with a ponytail

905
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,160
Speaker 19: or whatever deminimus thing, you know he thinks he needs

906
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 19: to do to be called a girl competing. There's the

907
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 19: advantage gone. But it's deeper than that. There's the meritocracy gone.

908
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 19: There's her sense of fairness gone. It's a crushing of dreams.

909
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 19: It's wrong.

910
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:41,279
Speaker 3: Hang on a second, we got a hard out. You're

911
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 3: gonna stick with us. We got much more to talk about.

912
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:49,120
Speaker 3: Nail's gonna get my mind right on this topic. Nyhilie

913
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 3: Wolf joins us short commercial break back for hour two.

914
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:52,560
Speaker 3: In a moment
