1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: All right, news, round up information, overload our eight hundred 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: and nine for one, Shawn our number. You want to 3 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: be a part of the program. So I got a text, 4 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: actually was during my TV show last night from a 5 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: US senator. The senator writes, Sean, you're not gonna believe this. 6 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,239 Speaker 1: We're about to vote on a gun bill that nobody 7 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: has read, not a single person has read. And I'm like, well, 8 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: all these Republicans that vote for this, it's insanity and 9 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: they should be standing up against this. The answer, if 10 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 1: you want to keep our schools safe, is the same 11 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,599 Speaker 1: answer and the same tactics that we give to protect 12 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 1: our elected officials. That means undercover arm guards in every school, 13 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 1: one way in, one way out, You make contingency plans. 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: God forbid, there's a fire, you have every kid go 15 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: through a metal detector, and guess what, You'll be able 16 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: to protect every child in every school in every town 17 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: if this bill in any way, which is another band aid, 18 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 1: it symbolism over substance. And they're all patting themselves on 19 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: the back, the people that went along with this crap, 20 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: you know, as if they save the day. It's not 21 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: everything we want, but it's a good start a good 22 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: start means they won't be happy, especially on the left, 23 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: until they take away our Second Amendment rights. And you 24 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: know this is Joe Biden on gun control repeats the 25 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: lines he says, you know he was instructed to repeat, 26 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: actually says it. Listen the guns legislation to senators, say 27 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 1: that they've gotten to a legislated text point briefing before 28 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: I walk through the room. To make sure, I say, 29 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: let them announce it and then I'll speak to it. 30 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: Are you satisfial? Let them? Oh? I just will read 31 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: my line just like you know, mister president, what do 32 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 1: you think about this? I'm not allowed to answer because 33 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: my staff is gonna get mad at me and everything, 34 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: and they know that I'm not capable of handling it. 35 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: That's what our president, that's our modern day president. Anyway, 36 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: Joe saying the Biden administration will come for your guns 37 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: if you have an assault weapon. Two gun owners out 38 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: there who say, well, a binding administration means they're going 39 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: to come for my guns. Bingo, you're right if you 40 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: have an assault weapon. The fact of the matter is 41 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: they should be illegal, period. Look, the Second Amendment doesn't 42 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: say you can't restrict the kinds of weapons people can own. 43 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: You can't buy a bazuka, you can't have a flamethrower. 44 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: The guys who make these arguments are the people who 45 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: say the tree of liberty is water with the blood 46 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: of patriots. We need the protection against the government, We 47 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: need that fifteen. For that, you need something well beyond 48 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: whether or not you're going to have an assault weapon. 49 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: All right, joining us now, Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Senator. 50 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 1: If I thought for a second that any of their 51 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: arguments held true, I would consider it. But they're not 52 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: taking the steps that are necessary to prevent anything like 53 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: what happened and you bald Detexas from happening again. If 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: they were, I would minute I say, you know what, 55 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I don't see any sense here. Did 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 1: you get a chance to read that bill before you 57 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: voted on it, Hey, Sean, it's good to be on 58 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: with you and all your listeners again. No. Unfortunately, Chuck 59 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: Schimmer brought that bill to the floor just minutes after 60 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: it was released yesterday. I voted just on that grounds 61 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,799 Speaker 1: alone against proceeding to the debate on it. I've now 62 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: had a chance to review all eighty pages of it. 63 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: I'll be voting against it as well. I think that 64 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 1: it puts too many rights of law abiding Americans at peril, 65 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: especially with vague and general terms that we're going to 66 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: delegate to Merrick Garland at the Department of Justice, who 67 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: sicked the Feds on parents going to school boards, or 68 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: delegate to unelected federal judges when you're talking about a 69 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: core right now. That clip you just played Sean about 70 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: Joe Biden talking about banning assault weapons, I think goes 71 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: to show why there's so much skepticism about these liberals 72 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: when it comes to regulating guns. They don't even know 73 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: what they're talking about. Joe Biden, who was talking about 74 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: banning assault weapons, Sean, as you and some many of 75 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: your listeners know, there is no such thing as an 76 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: assault weapon. It is a fiction of liberals and lawyers 77 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: in Washington. There are rifles, there are shotguns, there are pistols. 78 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: Those are specific types of firearms. But an assault weapon 79 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: is something that is defined by liberals and lawyers in 80 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: Washington that would encompass some of the most popular rifles 81 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: in America. So there is a deep reservoir of distrust 82 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: among gun owning, law abiding Americans about letting Joe Biden 83 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: or Merritt Garland or Venita Gupta at the Department of Justice. 84 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: With Merritt Garland, pass any kind of regulations or have 85 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: any kind of discretion when it comes to the firearms 86 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: we can own. You may not know the center. I've 87 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: said up publicly many times that my mom was a 88 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: prison guard and she had a revolver smith and wisson 89 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: if I remember, and at a very young age I 90 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: think it was ten, maybe eleven, my mother knowing that 91 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: they didn't have, you know, fingerprints safe like we have today. 92 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: Next to my bed, I have a fingerprint safe and 93 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 1: in seconds I can open it and there is my 94 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: handguns are right there. Okay, if I ever God forbid needed, 95 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: I keep my shotgun in the place right nearby, if 96 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: God forbid I ever need that. I always ask liberals, well, 97 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do if somebody breaks into your 98 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: house and wants to harm you and harms your family. 99 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: They never have a good answer, nor can they define 100 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: what an assault weapon is anyway. But really, ultimately, and 101 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: now they're starting to say it's some on the left, 102 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: they ultimately don't believe in the Second Amendment. They don't 103 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: want an armed citizen read. They don't care that it 104 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: says the right of the people to keep and bear 105 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: arms shall not be infringed. They ignore all of that. 106 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: Why because they want the government to have more control 107 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: over your life. They don't want individual citizens empowered to 108 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: make decisions for themselves. That's been the progressive mindset, going 109 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: back one hundred and fifty years to Woodrow Wilson shan 110 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: And your ability to protect yourself and protect your home 111 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: and protect your family is central to your independence, to 112 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: your freedom. The Second Amendment was not about hunting, It 113 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: was not about sports shooting. It certainly protects those activities, 114 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: but at bottom, the Second Amendment was about your right 115 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: to protect your own life and the lives of those 116 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 1: you love. And Sean, I know you support the police 117 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: as much as I do. But when seconds count the 118 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: police or minutes away, well that's the point. No matter 119 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: how great the response time is, it doesn't matter. And 120 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: by the way, and this is important too. Everyone points 121 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: to Uvalde, Texas and what happened there. That is not 122 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: the norm. Cops usually that I know, and everybody that 123 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: I know that has gone into law enforcements, they're all 124 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: the same. They're the guys that see the problem, see 125 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: people at risk, and run right towards it. We saw 126 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 1: it that day on that ball field when Steve Scalise 127 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: was shot and nearly killed that day, you know, in 128 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: an open field with a pistol up against a rifle 129 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: sniper that was hidden, these officers ran across the field. 130 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: They were sitting duck senator. Anybody that had any skill whatsoever, 131 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: well a rifle could have taken those two officers out, 132 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: but they did it anyway. Uvaldi is the exception, It 133 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: is not the norm. What happened there. Yeah, that's very true, Sean. 134 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: Those Capital police officers at that ballpark five years ago 135 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: probably saved multiple lives of senators and congressmen and probably 136 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: innocent bystanders as well, And I do believe they reflect 137 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: the norm among our brave law enforcement officers around the country. 138 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: And even in that school in Uvaldi, from the preliminary 139 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: reports I've read, there were officers who wanted to storm 140 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: the classroom to try to kill that shooter, to try 141 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: to get aid to those who had been wounded but 142 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: had not yet perished. But perhaps the chief who was 143 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: manned on the scene or others restrain them. So even 144 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: in the Uvalde School, there were still officers who were 145 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: acting in the finest and bravest traditions of law enforcement 146 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: in this country. Yeah, let's talk about a few other things, 147 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: if you don't mind, Senator. I think in my lifetime 148 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: we have not had an economy this bad since Jimmy 149 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: Carter was president. And maybe it's even worse than Jimmy Carter. 150 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but everybody that I know 151 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: that's paying over five dollars a gallon for gasoline is struggling. 152 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: Everybody that I know is watching. We now have a 153 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: report today trillions of dollars in retirees stock market investments 154 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: there four or one case, etc. The retirement plans they're 155 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: now missing. The problem I have more than any other 156 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: problem is and I'm hoping for a wave of election 157 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two in November, and the Republicans will 158 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: take the House in the Senate, but we actually have 159 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: to win two elections to reverse this. We have to 160 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: win twenty twenty two and twenty twenty four unless the 161 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: Democrats somehow, you know, would be deprogram from their climate 162 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: alarmist religious cultism that you know doesn't even won't even 163 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: recognize that we could go back to energy independence ourselves 164 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: instead of begging Iran and Venezuela and the Saudis and OPEC. Yeah, Sean, 165 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: Our Kansans are suffering badly, trying to make ends meet 166 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: at the end of the week and the end of 167 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: the month with gas at four dollars and fifty gallons 168 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: in our state, in other states at six or even 169 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,600 Speaker 1: seven dollars a gallon. You see the same thing at 170 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: the grocery store. I was speaking with a Walmart official recently, 171 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: and I said they've seen a decline in hot dog 172 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: and hamburger buns and an increase in white bread looking 173 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: ahead to the fourth of July, because people are trying 174 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: to cut corners and save a few pennies everywhere they can, 175 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: so they'll use white bread on their hot dogs and 176 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: their hamburgers, and they grow out in a week because 177 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: they'll save a few He's for them. That's how dire 178 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: it is for so many families. And you're right that 179 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: it starts this fall with winning back the House and 180 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: the Senate and putting the brakes on the Democratic agenda, 181 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: but doesn't finish this fall. We have to win in 182 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four as well. That's not just the White 183 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: House Sean, but it's also winning in what is a 184 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: very good cycle for us. In the Senate. You have 185 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: a lot of Democratic senators coming up in twenty twenty four, 186 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: like John Tester and Shared Brown and Tammy Baldwin and 187 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: Bob Casey who have never run for office. In a 188 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: bad environment for Democrats, and with Joe Biden's president, I'm 189 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: pretty confident, unfortunately, that it's going to continue to be 190 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: a bad environment for the Democrats. I mean a year ago, 191 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: Democrats were talking about Joe Biden being the second coming 192 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: of Fdr LBJ. I think at this point most of 193 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: them would just be satisfied if he could claw his 194 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: way back to being the second coming of Jimmy Carter. 195 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 1: All Right, quick break more with Senator Tom Cotton, the 196 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: great State of Arkansas. As we continue eight hundred nine 197 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: four one Sean number, we'll get to your calls. Final 198 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: half hour coming up straight ahead, we continue with Arkansas. 199 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: Senator Tom Cotton is with us. So we have a 200 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: couple of tough hold states. For example, Pennsylvania has always 201 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: been a purple state. I think doctor oswill win that race. 202 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be a tough race. We 203 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: have a pickup opportunity with herschel Walker. In Georgia, we 204 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: can pick up potentially New Hampshire. We've got to help 205 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: out our friend Ron Johnson because they're spending tens and 206 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: tens of millions of dollars to take him down. Pickups 207 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: possibilities in both Arizona, Nevada. I think we can get 208 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 1: a more conservative senator from the great state of Alaska. 209 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: You're right about the state of Washington. We got a 210 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: hold Ohio. I don't expect the problem there, or Florida 211 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: or South Carolina. I think North Carolina is a little 212 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: bit more difficult, but I think Bud's a great candidate. 213 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: Where do you see other pickup opportunities. I think you 214 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: kind of nailed all of them, Shanna. I do just 215 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: want to single out one state you mentioned, which is 216 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: Washington State. Now, I know a lot of your listeners 217 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: are probably thinking Washington State, it's deep blue, we have 218 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 1: no chance. Is actually not that democratic. After those top 219 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: four New Hampshire, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada for our pickup opportunities, 220 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 1: Washingtons arguably the very next one. We have a great 221 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: candidate there named Tiffany Smiley. Tiffany has a wonderful story. 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: Her husband, Scotty, was blown up in Iraq the year 223 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 1: before I was in Iraq. He was permanently blinded. She 224 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: quit her job as a nurse in Washington State. She 225 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: moved to Walter Reed. She cared for him and she 226 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: fought for him because the Army wanted to medically retire him. 227 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 1: They didn't. He became the first active duty officer who 228 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: was blind for ten years. She and Scotty had become 229 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: great advocates for veterans, and now she wants to be 230 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: the advocate for Washington in the United States Senate. I 231 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: can tell you there's one person whose opinion matters most, 232 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: who knows that this is a competitive race, and that 233 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: is Patty Murray. Patty Murray started running negative ads against 234 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: Tiffany Smiley two weeks ago, which tells you all you 235 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: need to know about scared. She thinks about the race. 236 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 1: She has seen some polling out there, some internal polling, 237 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: and you're absolutely right, it's definitely should be on the list. 238 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: I know in the House they've identified seventy five separate 239 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: districts that are going to be competitive in If I 240 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: look I actually believe the New York governor's race, if 241 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: they pay attention to it, there's a It's definitely an 242 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: outside chance. It's a long shot because so many New 243 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: Yorkers have gotten the hell out of there, gotten out 244 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: of here, and they moved to Arkansas and Florida and 245 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: the Carolinas, in Tennessee, in Texas. But you know, I 246 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: think people that fed up. My biggest problem is with 247 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: all this these economic problems that are so self induced 248 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: and given up energy independence. I don't see any course 249 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: reversal anytime soon. I don't think we're going to have 250 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: under Joe Biden or the Democratic Socialist New Green Deal Party. 251 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: I don't think we're ever going to have a Oh, 252 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: end of big government is over, in the end of 253 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: welfare as we know it. I don't think that's those 254 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 1: words will ever come out of their mouth. So I 255 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: don't think they're ever going to say, you know what, 256 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: gas prices are really high, we need to go back 257 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: to Trump's policies on energy. They're not going to do it. Yeah, 258 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm afraid not, Sehan, because high gas prices, remember, is 259 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: not an unintended consequence. It's the intended consequence Barack Obama's 260 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 1: secretary of Energy once said that we have to find 261 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: a way. We have to find a way to get 262 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: gas up to the price that it is in Europe, 263 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: where it's seven, eight, even nine dollars a gallon. Joe 264 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: Biden's done a pretty good job of almost getting us 265 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: there in this country. Joe Biden said on the campaign trail, 266 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: I promise you, I guarantee you, we will end fossil fuel, 267 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: which is madness sean fewer than one percent of the 268 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: eliminated or electric Yes, and that's what That's exactly what 269 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: they're trying to do. Let me ask you a question. 270 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: Your name gets bantered about quite a bit for the 271 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: office of the presidency. Any chance you'll consider running in 272 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Well, thank you for the question, Sean, 273 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: and I you you're about to tell me to drop dead. 274 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: You're not going to answer, Go ahead, you can say 275 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: it in a nice way. I appreciate the interest and 276 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: the expressions of support I get from around the country, 277 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: but right now I am really focused on stopping the 278 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: worst of this Democratic agenda in Washington and making sure 279 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: that we do win back not just the House and 280 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: the Senate, We've got election right in front of us 281 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: in four months. So no, no, thank you, happy. I 282 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: hope you had a happy Father's Day. Appreciate you being 283 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: with us. Likewise, Sean, thank you all right? Twenty five 284 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: to the top of the hour. On Lyndon, I'm not 285 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: sure if you saw the joy read. She's kind of 286 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 1: like I call her joyless, like joyless by heart. But 287 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: she seems to think that the criticisms that have come 288 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris's way are undeserved and unfair and tied it 289 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: to white men, and they're not giving her a fair 290 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: shot something to that effect. I'm paraphrasing, and I'm like, well, 291 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: first of all, nobody really pays a hell of a 292 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: lot of attention to her. But the problem is her 293 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: she you know, we have a giggling vice president, this awkward, strange, 294 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: bizarre giggling at the most inappropriate moments, and you get 295 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: one word salad after another from her, and I'll just 296 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: play a small sample. I'm like, what is going on 297 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: with this vice president? I wish she was competent because 298 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: we might need her in coming weeks, months, years. You know, 299 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: Joe is not the epitome of health, as they say, 300 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: it's one heartbeat away from the presidency, but she does 301 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: not instill confidence in anybody. And trust me, we spend 302 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: way more time on Joe Biden. Listen, do you plan 303 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 1: to visit the border? Um? Not? Today, more parents are 304 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: seeing the value of educators when saying we're not paying 305 00:16:48,360 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: them nearly enough. Everybody, Because there's an interesting fact in 306 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 1: case you didn't know, hard hats are actually even a 307 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: sexy's laughing, You're considered the most liberal United States senator. 308 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 1: I somebody said that, and it actually was Mike Pence 309 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: on the debate stage. But yeah, I don't get it. 310 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: Do you get that? Where's that coming from? It? To me, 311 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: it's like a nervous, awkward you know, I don't know 312 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: what to say, you know, default mechanism she has. I think, 313 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,719 Speaker 1: what is the best question whenever I hear things like 314 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 1: this and this is this is a serious question. It's 315 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: not me being snarky. Well maybe it is a little bit, 316 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 1: but it definitely is a serious question. What has UM 317 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: Senator Harris or Vice President Harris done? What has she done? 318 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: Do you know what I like? Do you know what 319 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: you have? If you have a conversation with Joyless Bayhard 320 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: Joyless red and you ask them and they start to 321 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: blame you know, the race card or the gender card, 322 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: or the liberal card or whatever they're going to use 323 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: as the excuse of the day. Say, okay, fine, putting 324 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: that aside, could you tell me what she has done 325 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: while in office, whether as a senator or as a 326 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: vice president that makes you think that she's doing such 327 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: a great job, because from what I can see, aside 328 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: from being ridiculously annoying, which she is, she does nothing. 329 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: And when she is asked about the nothing that she 330 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:25,400 Speaker 1: is doing, she is laughing. It is an embarrassment to 331 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: watch her. I can't remember. She kept repeating that same 332 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: phrase over and over again. The thing what was it again, 333 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: community effort. I'll have to look it up. It was 334 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: in community. I didn't have the word community in it. 335 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: And like one sentence, he repeats the same line, and 336 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: working together and you know, together we're going to accomplish 337 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: everything and together we get you know, something like that. Yeah, 338 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: I mean she says a lot of Listen, she's not 339 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 1: up to the job. I mean, this is what I 340 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: was saying to Tom Cotton, and that is that we 341 00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: have a bench. You know, you obviously Donald Trump make 342 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 1: up his mind if he's going to run. Uh if 343 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: you say he doesn't run, or maybe even if he does, 344 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: they'll probably be people. But look at the people that 345 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: we have. We have a Tom Cotton. We are interrupt you. 346 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: It is work together. You're right when we do. You 347 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 1: want to hear the money. It comes to the climate crisis, 348 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: which is why we will work together and continue to 349 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: work together, continue to address these issues, to tackle these challenges, 350 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: and to work together as we continue to work operating 351 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: from the new norms, rules and agreements that we will 352 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: convene to work together on to galvanize global action. With that, 353 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: I thank you all. This is a moder urgent priority 354 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: for all of us, and I know we will work 355 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: on this together. Anyway, let's get to our busy phones. 356 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 1: We got Steve and Georgia. What's up? Steve? How are 357 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: you glad you called? How are you doing? Sean? I'm good, sir. 358 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: What's going on? So we touched on something I was 359 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 1: listening to yesterday and and you touched on something about 360 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: the electric vehicles and doewing away with fossil fuels. And 361 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: I think what a lot of people don't realize is 362 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: the control becomes with electricity. And I realized this the 363 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: first time in my life, probably about eight or nine 364 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: years ago. I was down in South America fishing in Patagonia, 365 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 1: and there was an uprising in southern Patagonia to the 366 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: point that it was, you know, it was everything I 367 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: saw on TV as a kid, of burning cars and 368 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 1: tires in the streets and throwing rocks and all that. 369 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: We were saved from it. But this went on for 370 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: several days and the government just turned the power off 371 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: until everybody started to play an ice again. Then they 372 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,240 Speaker 1: turned the power back on. And I don't people would 373 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: think people realize the control that comes with electricity as 374 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: it is now with vehicles, Yeah, you can get in 375 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 1: your car, you can carry as much feel as you want, 376 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: you can drive wherever you want to go. But with electricity, 377 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to charge that vehicle. I went through 378 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: this earlier in the show, and I went through this 379 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 1: last night. What is the electrics to come from? Only 380 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: twelve percent is from renewables, so it's coming from petroleum, 381 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 1: gas and oil I mean or call. But more of 382 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about is control that comes with it, 383 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: their ability to control you know, first off, okay, give 384 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: a good charge your vehicle. Now you're gonna have a 385 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: charging card and you're only a large jet charge between 386 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 1: these hours. If you want to plan a trip, you're 387 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 1: gonna have to plan a trip between charging stations versus. Hey, 388 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: if I want to drive somewhere where there's no fuel, 389 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: I can load fuel in my vehicle and go there 390 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: and come back. Here's the here's the problem. And by 391 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: the way, it's twenty grand more on average than a 392 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,239 Speaker 1: regular car. Okay, okay, so that's up front, you need 393 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: twenty more grand. People. You know, when two thirds of 394 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: Americans I live in paycheck to paycheck, that's a pipe tree. 395 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 1: And what they have now done is they've totally removed 396 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: the option of becoming energy independent. But the very purpose 397 00:21:54,920 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: of forcing a transition that we're not ready for technologically, 398 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: and it is it is impossible to do what they 399 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: want to do and force us into their new green 400 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: deal cult without destroying the economy, because we were talking 401 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: about decades before you could ever consider making this transition, 402 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: and we certainly would need better advancements in terms of 403 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: quote renewables, wind, solar, whatever whatever they consider renewables, because 404 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: they never define renewables, and in the meantime, the rest 405 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: of the world is kicking our ass because they're not 406 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: giving up their their gas and their coal and their 407 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: and their oil. They're not giving it up at all. 408 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: They make it a fortune off of us because we're 409 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: begging them to produce more in their charging record rates. 410 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 1: I mean, it makes such such a dumb country. Well, 411 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: not the people that we have, dumb leaders. They're just 412 00:22:54,680 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: ridiculously stupid. And you can't deprogram this, this indoctrination that 413 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: they've bought into. You can't even reason with them. It 414 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: is completely off the table that will do the Keystone 415 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: Xcel pipeline get nine hundred thousand barrels of Canadian oil. 416 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: It is out of the realm of possibility that will 417 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: go to Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota and drove from our oil. 418 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 1: It's off the table to increase tracking opportunities in Pennsylvania 419 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:27,880 Speaker 1: and Ohio and other states. So that means that they're 420 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 1: now we're going to pay record prices because they've decided 421 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: that this is in our best interest that we import oil, 422 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: even though it has the same impact on Mother Earth 423 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: as if we got our own oil and gas. This 424 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: is madness. This is insanity. This lacks all common sense 425 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: and all logic. And I'll tell you we're all suffering 426 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: because of their adherence to their sick religious cult. It's 427 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: really insane. Well, you know, a lot of I think 428 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 1: a lot of the problem is let's let's let's dive 429 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: back a few decades to the fact that there was 430 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: no internet, just you know, twenty thirty, thirty five, forty 431 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: years ago, and information did not travel around the world 432 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 1: the way it does today. And people see America and 433 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: say they go to their leaders and they say, hey, 434 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: why can't we have it like America has it? Is 435 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: it easier to make America like the rest of the world, 436 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: or is it easier to make the rest of the 437 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: world like America and the other leaders pressuring our leaders 438 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,720 Speaker 1: to make things worse on us. It's just a thought, 439 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: you know. You know, I'll tell you the most depressing 440 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: part of this, and I don't get depressed. I get 441 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: very worried and concerned, which is very different than being depressed. Well, 442 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 1: concerns me the most. What keeps me up late at 443 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: night is the impact this is having on our position 444 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: in the world and on our fellow Americans because you 445 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: know what, there are many people both they cannot right 446 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: now make ends meet because they're shoving their indoctrination down 447 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 1: our throats against all common sense. And we're powerless unless 448 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: we win the next two elections. That's scary to me. 449 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 1: They will transform this country into a socialist utopia, come 450 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: hell or high water, no matter how much pain they 451 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: inflict on the rest of the country. Anyway, Steve good 452 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: call man, appreciate it. Carla and North Carolina, what's going 453 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: on on?

Well, what's 457 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: going on? Well, you know, we in our industry, I'm 458 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: the hardwood lover untry. We see a recession before anybody 459 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,919 Speaker 1: else does, and we're moving that way right now. I 460 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: mean that I don't thinks things stopping it. I mean, well, 461 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: the last quarter we had negative growth. The Atlanta Fed 462 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,280 Speaker 1: projected this week that growth for the second quarter is 463 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: going to be zero point zero percent now of a 464 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 1: zero point one percent by definition, we're in a recession. Well, 465 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: you know, fuel has been the big thing for everybody 466 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: out there.

Yeah, and you know, 469 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: as you know you're talking about, it affects food, affects 470 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: everything that we do. And you know, it's just driving 471 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 1: me crazy like it is everybody else out there.

He goes, yeah, 479 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: it'll take me that long just to get everything I 480 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 1: need to finish the job. That's what he's telling me. 481 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: And then I ended up ordering it. It's like my 482 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: car dealer guy called me nine months before my lease 483 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: was up, nine months and he said, I'm not trying 484 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: to say anything. You know, he's a friend of mine. 485 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: He's he's not ripping me off. He's giving me my 486 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: heads up as a friend. He goes, if you want 487 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: the same car, I got to order it now. And 488 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: your daughter's lease is coming due in six months.

They 492 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 1: don't they're not even making it. So I had to 493 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: buy the car out right. I didn't have a lot, 494 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: put sixteen thousand miles on and I don't drive a 495 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: whole lot.

I've learned a lot of life's lessons. I 521 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: try to parade them.
