And I believe he said that we 11 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: have been invited to potentially watch a rocket ship takeoff, 12 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: which would be pretty cool.

Starting next Monday, that is the ninth, 31 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: On February ninth, this show will debut for the first 32 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: time ever on satellite radio the Triumph channel Channel. 33 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: One twenty three. 34 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 1: So for those of you out there that are traveling people, 35 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: maybe that don't have consistent great reception of the five 36 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty five AMFM stations nationwide, maybe your particular 37 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: area doesn't pull it up, you will be able to 38 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: find the show in addition to the podcast. In addition 39 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: to the five hundred and fifty five stations in all 40 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: fifty states, you will be able to listen to the 41 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: program starting a week from today on Sirius XM channel 42 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: one twenty three. The show has never been on satellite 43 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:29,079 Speaker 1: radio before. We are continuing to expand and grow across 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: all of the platforms because people consume shows so many 45 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: different ways now than compared to the eighties and the nineties. 46 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 2: We want to be everywhere. So starting in. 47 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: June, we will have three hours of video every single 48 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: day that you'll be able to see that hopefully will 49 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: look pretty good. 50 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: That will be on YouTube and other locations. 51 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: We'll be on satellite radio starting Monday, in addition to 52 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: all of the ways that you are already experiencing this program, 53 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: So something to look forward to there. I want to 54 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: give you a pauseive story. I've been teasing this a 55 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 1: little bit. Two super positive stories that I think are connected. 56 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: Data from Washington d C. During the course of the 57 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 1: month of January, homicides compared to last year down eighty percent, 58 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: robberies down fifty eight percent, burglaries down twenty eight percent, 59 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: motor vehicle theft down fifty seven percent, all crime down 60 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: twenty six percent. Washington d C is on pace to 61 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: be the safest it has ever been in the history 62 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: of any of our lives. Last year was the safest 63 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: year in the history of any of our lives. We 64 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: had one hundred and twenty five year low. When it 65 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: comes to the murder rate. All of this is stacking 66 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: up in a very significant way, and people are voting 67 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: with their feet as well to support good government. Lots 68 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: of times people say, oh, it's all so negative. I 69 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: never hear anything positive. Just in the last two weeks 70 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 1: two of the greatest stories that I've ever seen. We 71 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: hit a new record for average lifespan in this country 72 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: last year, and we also hit a one hundred and 73 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: twenty five year low for murders. Both of those are connected. 74 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: Do you think maybe ice deporting violent criminals has been 75 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 1: impactful there? Do you think maybe having a secure border 76 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: has been impactful there? And all associated with that good 77 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:51,919 Speaker 1: government is actually winning. This is the data from the 78 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: Census in the last year. Where are people moving overwhelmingly 79 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: to states that Donald's Trump won? Where are people leaving 80 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly states that Kamala Harris won. 81 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: Let me give you some of this. 82 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: Top ten places people moved in the United States North 83 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: Carolina number one, Texas number two, South Carolina number three, 84 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: My home state of Tennessee number four. This is in 85 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,559 Speaker 1: the last year according to the Census, Arizona number five, 86 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: Georgia six, Alabama seven, Florida eight, Idaho nine, and Nebraska 87 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: sorry Nevada ten what do all ten of those states 88 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: have in common? Donald Trump won all of them. So 89 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:48,119 Speaker 1: people are moving, They are choosing to move to red states. 90 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 1: Where are people leaving Connecticut, Hawaii, Colorado, Maryland, Louisiana, Massachusetts, 91 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: New Jersey, Illinois, New York, California. Only one of those 92 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: states was won by Donald Trump. People are leaving blue 93 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: states and they are moving to red states. Now, I 94 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: know some of you who live in those states. You're 95 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: already blowing me up. I don't even have to check 96 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: my mentions. I don't even have to check my emails. Clay, 97 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: their locusts. 98 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 2: They destroy the blue state. 99 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 1: You're in California right now. It's a perfect example. They 100 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: vote for awful things and then they bail and they 101 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: go and they bring their politics with them. I understand 102 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: that argument. Data doesn't support it. The red states are 103 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: actually getting redder. The people that are the most fed 104 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: up and are relocating tend to be redder even than 105 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 1: the states that they are going to. Florida is a 106 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: prime example of this. You remember when Florida was a 107 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: toss up state. Remember we had to sit around for hours, weeks, months, 108 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: even in two thousand to find out who won the 109 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: state of Florida. Now we know about three hours after 110 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: the votes are cast, overwhelmingly red state voters have flowed 111 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: into Florida. My state of Tennessee has gotten deep red 112 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: because people are coming to Tennessee and they are voting 113 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: even redder than the people that are already there. What 114 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: we are seeing is there are a lot of people 115 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 1: making reasonable, rational choices based on the governance of where 116 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: they are and saying I'm done with. 117 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 2: This, I'm moving. Census data. 118 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: Top ten movers, all Trump states, top ten losers, nine 119 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: of them commal estates. What we are seeing is Republicans 120 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: make choices and govern in a way that makes everybody's 121 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: lives better, and all of these states are starting to 122 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: fall apart even more. Over the weekend, we got a 123 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: lot of people with the show that work out of 124 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: New York City. They've had a snowstorm in New York 125 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: City and right now, mom, Donnie can't get the streets 126 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: clean and he can't get the garbage picked up. We're 127 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: going to talk with Marshall Blackburn, Senator from Tennessee here shortly. Unfortunately, 128 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: Nashville has got a moron Democrat mayor. They also have 129 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: got a electric service that had over one hundred DEI 130 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: meetings and trainings last year. If you're sitting around and 131 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: you're thinking to yourself, why does the electric service need 132 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: to have DEI instruction? I think you're asking good questions 133 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: because the Electric Service where I am has to serve everybody. 134 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: I don't know why you would need to be trained 135 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: in diversity at an inclusion over one hundred different times. 136 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 2: What I care. 137 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 1: About is turn the power on and get it back flowing. 138 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: I grew up in a part of Nashville called Goodlitzville. 139 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: Maybe some of you are listening in Goodlittzville right now, 140 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: zip code three seven seven to two. It's on the 141 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: north side of Davidson County. I lived my entire life 142 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: in Goodlottsville. Right now, the Nashville Electric Service has put 143 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: out a projection of how long it's going to take 144 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 1: to turn the power back on after the ice storm 145 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: in Nashville. Goodltsville, Tennessee is the last place, the last 146 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: zip code. 147 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: To get power three weeks. Let me repeat three weeks. 148 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: We're not talking about a epic hurricane of unimaginable detail 149 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: and destruction. We're talking about a winter storm that was 150 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: on the forecast for weeks that everybody knew was coming. 151 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: And this left mayor and this nes DEEI obsessed. Electric 152 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 1: Service can't turn the power back on four people. I 153 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: made the decision in my life after COVID. I was 154 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: so angry. I was a born and raised Nashville kid. 155 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 1: I went to public school K through twelve. I lived 156 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: in Nashville for much of my life. A decade ago, 157 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 1: we moved out to Franklin, Tennessee, which is utopia, one 158 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 1: of the greatest cities on the planet. We just moved again. 159 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: My wife was looking. She said, where do we want 160 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: to move. We'll be closer to the kids' school. We 161 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,320 Speaker 1: want to be able to live in a better, closer 162 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: place to where we had to go every single day. 163 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: I said, I will not leave Williamson County because I 164 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: am so angry still over how Nashville handled COVID, that 165 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: I won't give them my property tax dollars. I made 166 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: a conscious decision that I want to live in a 167 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 1: better run community based on political decisions, and I think 168 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: a lot of you are making those choices too. 169 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 3: Now. 170 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: I also understand I talked about it earlier. 171 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: I'm in LA twenty twenty more people in California voted 172 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: Trump than voted for Trump in twenty twenty in Texas. 173 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 2: One of my favorite stats. 174 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: I understand a lot of you are still behind enemy 175 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: lines and you're having to deal with the incompetence, and 176 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: you can't move because you've got kids in school or 177 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: you got jobs that aren't easily able to translate. But 178 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: increasingly more and more people are saying, I can't put 179 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: up with this anymore. So if you're out there and 180 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: you feel frustrated by the stupidity that you see at 181 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: the Grammy Awards, if you're out there and like Todd Rick, 182 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: who just talked with us, you sometimes think, how in 183 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: the world can people believe the things that they do. 184 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: There are tens of millions of people thinking like you, 185 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: And every single day, more and more people are moving 186 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: to red states and strengthening those red states and making 187 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: them better, and the blue states are going to get worse. 188 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: And this is a cycle that is going to repeat itself, 189 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: and I think it is going to become one of 190 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 1: the biggest stories that exists out there in all of 191 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: the country's history. Because my big thesis is post COVID, 192 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: a lot of people realize they can live anywhere in 193 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: the country they want. And people are fed up with 194 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: government that doesn't work, with government that fails them, and 195 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: they are going to take their dollars like I did, 196 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:50,679 Speaker 1: to places that make good decisions, and they're going to 197 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: pay their taxes in places that are going to make 198 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: good choices, and more people are going to move there 199 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: and they're going to make better choices. And the flip 200 00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: side is going to be true. When you're making poor choices, 201 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: things are going to continue to get worse. I think 202 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,960 Speaker 1: that's what the data is reflecting. And by the way, 203 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is making it better even for blue cities. 204 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 1: That story on DC is incredible. Murder rate may hit 205 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: an all time low this year in Washington, d C. 206 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: Do you remember when they said, Hey, this is not 207 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: going to be effective. Oh what is Trump going to do? 208 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: It is going to be a disaster. It's going to 209 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: be a disaster. That's what they said. Oh, there's no 210 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 1: way to make it safer. Guess what, everything got better. 211 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 1: Trump was right yet again. 212 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 2: Take some of your calls. Marsha Blackberg going to join 213 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 2: us at the bottom of the hour. 214 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: We will discuss the latest on all the different issues 215 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: dealing with power in both Mississippi and Tennessee as it 216 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 1: continues to be awful in the wake of a ice 217 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: storm and a failure, especially in the state of Tennessee 218 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: by left wing government to be able to actually turn 219 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: the power on four people out there who are increasingly 220 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: fed up with the poor leadership that they are getting. 221 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 2: And that's why. 222 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: Red state overall is surging in population and why blue 223 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: states are losing again. That is data that just came 224 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: out in the last couple of days. I want to 225 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: tell you you can switch your cell phone service to 226 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: Pure Talk, my family's cell phone service, and you can 227 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: start saving money today. For twenty five bucks a month, 228 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: unlimited talk text, plenty of data. Compare that to your 229 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: current monthly cell phone bill from one of the big 230 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: wireless companies out there. It's a no brainer. If you're 231 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: paying one hundred dollars or more every month, why not 232 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: make the switch. Your cell phone service will still be 233 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: on the same tower, same network, so you'll still have 234 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 1: a great nationwide five G service. The only difference you'll 235 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: be saving six hundred to one thousand dollars a year, 236 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: if not more. How much would one thousand dollars mean 237 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: to you at the end of the year. How much 238 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: difference could that make for you. That's what puretalk can 239 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 1: take care of. You can keep your same phone number, 240 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: you can keep your safe phone.

Appreciate all 250 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: of you hanging out with us. A couple of things 251 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 1: that are out there as we get ready for Marsha Blackburn. 252 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: James Carvil is an old school Democrat. That is, uh, 253 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 1: he actually understands in some way how to talk to 254 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: normal men. 255 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 4: Uh. 256 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 1: The Democrat Party has lost that ability. And he had 257 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: this to say, I believe it's cut twenty seven. James 258 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: Carvel on Democrat culture. 259 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 5: Democratic coach became very feminized and very judgmental, and that 260 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 5: is why we push so many of these males away, 261 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 5: particularly younger males. They were telling them. 262 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 3: They sit there and they says, okay. 263 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 5: So a guy who works at a tar shop in 264 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 5: South Atlanta, he's in a July. He he's changing tars 265 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 5: all days, riding wheels, and he goes home and they says, 266 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 5: don't drink beer, don't eat hamburgers, don't watch football, don't. 267 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 3: Have a second God, damn, what do you want me 268 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 3: to do? 269 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 4: I've been not at working my ass. 270 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 6: I would want to have a beer. 271 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 5: And watch the game, and you know, smoke dope and 272 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 5: have sex with my girlfriend. Well, there's nothing wrong with that. 273 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: He would love balls. I need to get James Carvill 274 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: a copy of Balls. There aren't very many Democrats like 275 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: that anymore. There aren't very many Democrats who look at 276 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: the culture and just say, hey, it's okay to be 277 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: a dude. I've got three boys. I spend a lot 278 00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: of time thinking about this because I'm trying to raise 279 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: three boys, turn them into men. And they see the 280 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: Democrat Party as constantly hectoring them, as lecturing them, as 281 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: telling them, hey, you can't have a beer and watch 282 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: a football game. And the Democrat Party, by and large, 283 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 1: has become so insanely feminized that they've lost men, and 284 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how they get them back. Now we're 285 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: talking about big turnout elections, because sometimes it's hard to 286 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: get these guys to pay attention. I mean, I actually 287 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 1: think Jelly Roll is a good example when he says, hey, 288 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm busy, I'm not really paying a lot of attention. 289 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: There are a lot of hard working guys out there 290 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: that would never go vote because they're worried about making money, 291 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: putting food on the table for their family. But when 292 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: they hear Democrats lecturing them for not being pro trans enough, 293 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: they're not rushing out to the polls for that. I 294 00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: think the Democrat Party has a profound feminized issue that 295 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: I don't know how they fix. I think they're going 296 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 1: to have to lose a couple of different elections, or 297 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: they're going to have to rely on getting eighty percent 298 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: of the female vote to be able to win a 299 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 1: nationwide election. I think that's where we are. I think 300 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: James Carvill actually got that dead right. We come back, 301 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 1: we'll talk with the Senator Marsha Blackburn.

Senator Blackburn, appreciate the 330 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: time we were texting about this the last several days 331 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: and I wanted to get you on to talk about it. 332 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 2: There are still way. 333 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: Too many Tennesseeans and frankly Mississippians as well, that don't 334 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 1: have power after this ice storm. This is just a 335 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: failure in my opinion. The Mayor of Nashville and the 336 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: Nashville Electric Service, what have you seen? What should happen? 337 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: What kind of update can you give us? 338 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 3: Yes, and we know this. There is still about forty 339 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 3: thousand people in the metro Nashville area that are serviced 340 00:19:56,320 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 3: by Nashville Electric Service that do not have power and play. 341 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: One of the things we have to realize with this 342 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 3: is Nashville Electric Services they have four hundred and seventy 343 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 3: thousand customers that's businesses and residences, and out of that 344 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 3: they had about two hundred and thirty five thousand people 345 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: that were without power, so fifty percent of their grid failed. 346 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 3: And when you have a fifty percent fail rate, you've 347 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 3: got problems. That says you don't have resiliency, you don't 348 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 3: have redundancy, and it also tells us that they did 349 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 3: not properly prepare for this storm. They didn't take precautions 350 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 3: that were necessary for a nice storm. And you know, 351 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 3: people were watching the weather, they were going to Kroger 352 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 3: in publics and getting food in the house to get 353 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 3: through this storm. But for some reason, and Nashville Electric 354 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 3: said they prepared for a snowstorm, not an ice storm. 355 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 3: So we're grateful that we've got so many people helping neighbors. 356 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 3: We are the volunteer state. You've got the governor called out, 357 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 3: the National Guard, Highway patrol is out there, local law enforcement, 358 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:27,719 Speaker 3: emergency responders, and as I said, neighbors that are dragging 359 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 3: out the chainsaws and helping neighbors and taking care of 360 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 3: people that are stranded, elderly ill, people that cannot get 361 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: out of their homes and trying to help get them 362 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 3: to safety or get some warmth into those homes. 363 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: We're talking to Senator Marshall Blackburn. We certainly want that 364 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: to help get taken care of. You just did on 365 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: an important thing. Seems to me, based on the fact 366 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: that this storm was talked about coming for eight ten 367 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: days in advance. I mean, this is something that obviously 368 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 1: hit many different parts of the country and everybody saw 369 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: it coming. Shouldn't the Nashville Electric Service have prepared for 370 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: ice given the fact that there was a substantial likelihood 371 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: of ice hitting and I mean the frozen precipitation ice, 372 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 1: as opposed to just kind of sitting back and waiting. 373 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: You wrote a great letter to the nationale Electric Service 374 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 1: which six key questions. How did you find their responses 375 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: to those questions. 376 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: To be well, the responses were inadequate, and it was 377 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 3: so disappointing that they couldn't answer specifically. You know, I 378 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: got these answers like we've got two hundred and thirty 379 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,360 Speaker 3: in es lineman, nine hundred and eighty four contract lignemen, 380 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 3: and God blessed them for being out there. Three hundred 381 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 3: and forty six vegetation management personnel, which of course that 382 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 3: is people that are cutting trees. We call it cutting 383 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 3: and tossing. They've got one hundred and seventy seven doing 384 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 3: filled asessment. But here again they didn't do the preparation 385 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 3: on the front end. They were busy doing DEI training. 386 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 3: They did one hundred and two DEI training sessions last year, 387 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 3: so the prep work was not done. They have one 388 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 3: job and it is to keep the lights on. And 389 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 3: the communication was terrible. People would get notices that their 390 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 3: power was back on, but their power was not back on. 391 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,360 Speaker 3: People would try to call an ES and report an outage, 392 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 3: but the phone system was not working, their online reporting 393 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 3: was not working. So there was a lot of communication. 394 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: Even Mayor Freddie and Nashville said they were not equipped 395 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 3: to handle communications. So they just were focused on DEI 396 00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 3: and WOKE policies and not paying attention to infrastructure and 397 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 3: making certain that the infrastructure was prepared, that the tree 398 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,159 Speaker 3: canopy had been cut so that the lines were not 399 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 3: tangled up in branches, just key things like that. And 400 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: you know, as I say, the Good Lord gave us 401 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 3: great big, beautiful hard with trees. He gave us ills, 402 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 3: he gave us valleys, and he gave us a lot 403 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 3: of limestone. And you need to prepare your utilities recognizing 404 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 3: those are opportunities and challenges and be ready when something 405 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 3: like this happens. And I told one of the board members. 406 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 3: They said, well, we've got limestone. It's hard to bury, 407 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 3: it's hard to bury cables. I said, well, then you 408 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 3: need to get over there and talk to one of 409 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 3: the engineers at the boring company who is building a 410 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 3: tunnel through Limestone to go from the Nashville Airport to 411 00:24:55,320 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 3: downtown Nashville and then out into the hospital district. They're 412 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 3: going to do a loop in Nashville like they've done 413 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 3: in Las Vegas. So there are ways to handle this 414 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 3: and to not have known for days. They were saying, 415 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 3: we're going to get some snow, then we're going to 416 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 3: get some sleep, and then we're going to get freezing rain. 417 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 3: They should have prepared for this. In nineteen ninety four 418 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 3: we had a nice storm. My husband and I went 419 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 3: through that one a lot of damage and had about 420 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 3: three quarters of an inch of ice, a lot of 421 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 3: trees broke. So you prepare for these things. And it 422 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 3: seems that there were no lessons taken from the nineteen 423 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 3: ninety four storm, and because of that you have the 424 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: deaths that are weather related. You have had a terrible 425 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 3: issue with people being out of their homes. This is 426 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 3: day nine. I've had emails and text messages and calls 427 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 3: from people today that are still out of their home, 428 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 3: and we are doing all we can. The President has 429 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 3: declared the emergency. They have gotten the second declaration from 430 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: Governor Lee, who has activated state resources. We have activated FEMA. 431 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 3: All possible resources are here. Individuals that are listening to 432 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 3: you that need help and may qualify for FEMA support 433 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 3: should contact the Office of Emergency Management in their county 434 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 3: and find out how to receive those resources. 435 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: President Trump gave you a shout out from the stage. 436 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:41,320 Speaker 2: Last week. 437 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: We were supposed to be Buck and Eye up there 438 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: for the Treasury event on that Wednesday. The travel situation 439 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: was a mess because of the weather. What should we 440 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: know about the current status of President Trump's agenda in 441 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: the Senate, And what would you want us to know 442 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 1: about your gubernatorial campaign with the election happening in November. 443 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 3: Yes, and I was grateful for his very kind words 444 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 3: and his support in his statements. His agenda is moving forward. 445 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 3: You know, it's important that we finished the appropriations process, 446 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: or that we get it finished. We've done eleven of 447 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 3: twelve appropriations bills and play this gets us off of 448 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 3: the Biden budget and onto a Trump Republican budget that 449 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 3: helps us bend the spending curve, the first time in 450 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 3: years that that has been done, and it is a 451 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 3: vitally important step to take. So that is item number one. 452 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 3: Continuing to confirm judges, Continuing to codify executive orders. You know, 453 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 3: he did an executive order on artificial intelligence, and I 454 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 3: have drafted the National Policy on artificial Intelligence, so that 455 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 3: we've got a discussion draft and the starting point that 456 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 3: would codify much of what he says. So those are 457 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 3: items that we are continuing to work through on his agenda, 458 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 3: making certain that we take the steps that are necessary 459 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,360 Speaker 3: to support the good work that the President and Secretary 460 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 3: Ruvio are doing on the global stage. And I think 461 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 3: that the President enjoys support and many times bipartisan support 462 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 3: in these initiatives. Certainly, the Trump accounts for children that 463 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 3: are born between twenty five and twenty eight, that one 464 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 3: thousand dollars savings account and the ability of employer's parents 465 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 3: grandparents to add money to that savings account so that 466 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 3: children have access to capital that have their learning financial literacy. 467 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,239 Speaker 3: As they're working through this part, as all of this 468 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 3: These are important parts and components of his agenda, and 469 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 3: it is moving forward. I think the House will pass 470 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 3: tomorrow the bills the Senate passed this past Friday, and 471 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 3: we will then be off those Biden budget numbers. 472 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: Senator Blackburn appreciate the time, Thanks for coming on and 473 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: give us an update, and we'll talk to you again soon. 474 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 3: You got it. Take care. 475 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: That's Senator Marshall Blackburn. She is running for governor in Tennessee, 476 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: current senator in Tennessee. You just heard us talking all 477 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: about how awful the weather was and people, unfortunately, including 478 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: in my hometown of Gouldsville, Tennessee, just north of downtown Nashville, 479 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: in Davidson County, they're saying that they will not have 480 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: power until February the eleventh. That is three weeks without power. 481 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 1: You heard Senator Blackburn mentioned the nineteen ninety four storm 482 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: We lost power back in those days. Nowhere near three weeks, 483 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: but I remember being in the house felt like a week. 484 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: I think it was around a week that we didn't 485 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: have power. Now they're saying three weeks nearly without power. 486 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: That is absolutely devastating for a lot of people. A 487 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: lot of people in Mississippi, Tennessee, wherever the ice hit. 488 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: Did you have the ability to continue to stay in 489 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: contact with so many of your family members out there? 490 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people didn't, And that's where rapid Radios 491 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 1: comes in. They can make a tremendous difference for you 492 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: and your family and get you hooked up with a 493 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: five day charge even if you don't have power, allow 494 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: you nationwide to be able to stay in touch with 495 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: your family.

We got a bunch of VIP emails 534 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: rolling in. We got some calls. I'll get to that. 535 00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: James and Louisville, Kentucky, asking we've talked about the census. 536 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: He says, specifically, what law allows the government to count 537 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: every person in the sense as citizen and non citizen alike? 538 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: Why isn't it just citizens? What law is there? And 539 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: the answer is it is in the Constitution. And the 540 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: question is what does actual enumeration of all persons mean? 541 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: Every ten years a census must occur? Actual Article one, 542 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 1: Section two. How is all persons and actual enumeration? How 543 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: is that defined? You may remember there's been battles over 544 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 1: statistical methodologies right as opposed to direct counting. And what 545 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: does all persons mean? Does it mean all persons literally 546 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: citizens and non citizens? Probably not? The context under which 547 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: in the olden times they would have anticipated with the founders, 548 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 1: and so I think it's something that needs to go 549 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 1: before the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court to make 550 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: a determination. 551 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 2: That's what we talked about last week. 552 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: But that is the dispute from a legal perspective that 553 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 1: is out there. VIP email from Kendra very interesting discussion 554 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,839 Speaker 1: with Todd. That is Todd Ricketts, the co owner of 555 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,359 Speaker 1: the Chicago Cubs. I've been a free Spoke subscriber for 556 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: about a year now and I love it. It's my 557 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: default browser. My husband uses it too. I'm gonna have 558 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: to check it out. I haven't checked it out, but 559 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: I think the goal that he is working on there 560 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 1: is a very important one. Ryan in Twin Falls, Idaho, 561 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: appreciate the call. 562 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 6: What you got for is Ryan, Hey, thanks for taking 563 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 6: my call. So are you there? 564 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, fire away, Okay. 565 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,120 Speaker 6: So, I just wanted to back you up on some 566 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 6: of the things you're saying about refugees coming to Red States. 567 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 6: I'm an HVAC and refrigeration tech and I meet a 568 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 6: lot of transplants from California and Oregon and Washington, and 569 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 6: for the most part, i'd say the majority of people 570 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 6: I meet are here because they're escaping something, and you know, 571 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 6: most of them are very good people, and I do 572 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 6: believe that Idaho's becoming a red state for them. I 573 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 6: do want to remind people that when you move to 574 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 6: a red state that when you vote, most of the 575 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 6: weight is carried in the primary. When you play for 576 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 6: a team that's all read, you got to watch out 577 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 6: for people who are less than honest and would normally 578 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 6: have a D in for their name, they will change 579 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 6: to Republicans. So all the heavy lifting happens in the primary. 580 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 6: By the time we get to the general, it's mostly 581 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 6: too late if you want to make a change. So yeah, 582 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 6: I just want to agree with what most of what 583 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,320 Speaker 6: you said, and that's been my experience. 584 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: Thank you for the call. He's one hundred percent right. 585 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 2: You need to vote in primaries. 586 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: Idaho was the ninth most popular state for people to 587 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: move domestically in the country into. According to the Census. 588 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: All ten of the most popular states were won by 589 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:01,040 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Nine of the ten least popular states won 590 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: by Kamala Harris Worth. Keeping that in mind as we 591 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: go forward, we'll break down more tomorrow. Get in a 592 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: little bit to the Epstein revelations. Frankly, not a ton. 593 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: We talked about that quite a bit on Friday. I'm 594 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: sure Buck and I will weigh in a bit on that, 595 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 1: but positive news out there. The Milania movie biggest biggest 596 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 1: documentary audience in a decade. So it made over seven 597 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 1: million dollars. Third most popular movie in America last year. 598 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 1: I have not seen it. Frankly, I doubt that I 599 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 1: will see it until it ends up maybe on one 600 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: of the streaming services. I'm not out to movies that often, 601 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,799 Speaker 1: but a lot of you did go, and that is 602 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: a fantastic result. Biggest documentary audience in a decade. We'll 603 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: be back with you all tomorrow.
