31
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: the details and updates, but first we'll start with some

32
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: breaking news today. Wilmer Hutchins High School, about twenty miles

33
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: outside of Dallas, Texas. Police firefighting units on the scene

34
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: now reported school shooting. We're looking at the details now.

35
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: Police can only confirm that the shooting took place sometime

36
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: around one o'clock local time. That would be Central time

37
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: in the Dallas area. No confirmation yet on what the

38
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: situation is. It's being called a school shooting, but we're

39
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: waiting for details as the police for their helicopters, their

40
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: poliction it's there. When we know more, we will trade

41
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: it with you here on the program. First we start here.

42
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: The Trump administration not playing games when it comes to

43
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: the safety of American citizens as evidence to buy the

44
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: very effective meeting between President Trump and El Salvador as

45
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: President Nayam Bukelly on Monday. The meeting highlighted the partnership

46
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: between the two nations and locking up violent criminals that

47
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: have been living here in this country illegally.

48
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 2: But that's not all the meaning accomplished. It also set.

49
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: The records trade regarding the deportation of a Salvador and

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: gang member, a member of MS thirteen that media has

51
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 1: been painting as a Maryland father and basically a victim

52
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: of the Trump administration. For instance, here's the headline from

53
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: the New York Times, what to know about the mistake

54
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 1: and deportation of a Maryland man to El Salvador. Now,

55
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: at the meeting between Trump and Bukelly, the media wanted

56
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: to really dig.

57
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 2: Into that sort least some did.

58
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 1: But I think they've been off a bit more than

59
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: they could chew because listen to the Homeland Security advisors

60
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: stee Evan Miller, and his explanation is he just shoots

61
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: it all down here.

62
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 4: It is they always ask you what the slant because

63
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 4: they're totally slantic, because they don't know what's happening.

64
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,639
Speaker 2: That's why nobody's watching them. But would you answer that question.

65
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 5: On silver It's just so Pam mentioned, here's an illegal

66
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 5: alien from El Salvador.

67
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: So with respect to you, he's a citizen of El Salvador.

68
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 5: So it's very arrogant, even for American media to suggest

69
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 5: that we would even tell El Salvador how to handle.

70
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 2: Their own citizens.

71
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 5: As a start, as the two immigration courts sound that

72
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 5: he was a member of amisters team.

73
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 2: When President Trump declared Mster Team to be a foreign

74
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 2: terrorist organization, that meant that he was no longer eligible

75
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 2: under federal law, which I'm sure you know you're very

76
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: familiar with. The innet that he was no longer.

77
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 5: Eligible for any foreign immigration relief in the United States.

78
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 5: So he had a deportation order that was valid which

79
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 5: by an under our law, he's not even allowed to

80
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 5: be present in the United States and had to be

81
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 5: because of the foreign terrorist designation.

82
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: This issue was then by.

83
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 5: District court judge completely inverted and a district court judge

84
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 5: tried to tell the administration.

85
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 2: That they had to kidnap a citizen of El Salvador

86
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 2: at Flying Pack here. That issue was.

87
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 5: Raised as the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court said

88
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 5: that District Court were was unlawful and its make opponents

89
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 5: were verse nine zero, unanimously stating clearly that neither Secretary

90
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 5: of State nor the President could be compelled by anybody

91
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 5: to forcibly retrieve a citizen of l Salador from Al Salador.

92
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 2: Who again is a member.

93
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 5: Of MS thirteen, which is I'm sure you understand rapes,

94
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 5: little girls, murders, woman murder's children, is engaged in the

95
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 5: most barbaric activities in the world.

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 2: And I can promise you if he was your neighbor,

97
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: you wouldn't move right away.

98
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: And that, my friends, is a clean lesson in how

99
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: you handle a hostile media crush.

100
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: Them are irrefutable facts.

101
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Miller directed the so called journalists in the room to

102
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: ask President about this man's future, and President.

103
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 2: Mc kelly didn't miss a beat when called upon here

104
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 2: it is.

105
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 6: Do you plan to return?

106
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 7: Well, what's your guy suggested that I smallow a terrorists

107
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:18,080

110
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,520

00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,280

113
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 7: but you can release Yeah, but I'm not releasing I mean,

114
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 7: we're not very fond of releasing terrorists into our country.

115
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 7: We just turned the murder capital of the world to

116
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 7: the city's country in the Western Hemisphere.

117
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 8: And he want us to go back and to the

118
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 8: murder releasing criminals, so we can go back to the

119
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:47,520
Speaker 8: murder capital of the world.

120
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 2: And that's that's not grap that's.

121
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 4: Well, they'd love to have a criminal you know, I

122
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 4: mean scific, they would love it.

123
00:05:55,279 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're sick of shick people. Yeah, sick people.

124
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 1: President Trump is really just having the time of his

125
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: life when he calls a spade a spade, and he's

126
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: backed up by everybody in the room, except, of course,

127
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: people like Caitlyn Collins. President Mkelly really framed this entire

128
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: spectacle exactly as he should. Is the media really suggesting

129
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: the president of El Salvador smuggling a terrorist that belongs

130
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: in prison in l Salvador?

131
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 2: Does you want to.

132
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: Bring that person back to the United States? Is that

133
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: really what they're asking it's absurd, of course, I mean

134
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 1: totally absurd. The media wants to make this about following

135
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 1: the rule of law and obeying the courts. But Secretary

136
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: of Saint Marco Rubio straightened that talking point out quickly.

137
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 2: Listen, I can tell you this, mister President.

138
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 9: No, the foreign policy of the United States is conducted

139
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 9: by the President of the United States, not by a court.

140
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 5: And no court in the.

141
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,720
Speaker 10: United States has a right to conduct the foreign policy

142
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 10: of the United States.

143
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 6: It's that simple, and of story.

144
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: No court can dictate the foreign policy United States. It's

145
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 1: that simple, bam, and of stillory, or at least it

146
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: should be.

147
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: But I think the.

148
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: Media is going to beat this dead horse as long

149
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 1: as it can, as long.

150
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 2: As it thinks it can.

151
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: Fortunately, we've got Steven Miller here running circles around them.

152
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 2: One last clip I need to play from this story.

153
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 2: Listen to this.

154
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 5: Do you know the difference between a deportation order and

155
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 5: a withholding order?

156
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 2: Do you know the difference? Any of you? Please? Do you?

157
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 11: Well, we're not in the government.

158
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 5: But so you didn't spend, so you couldn't even spend,

159
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 5: You couldn't even spend seventy two hours over the weekend

160
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 5: learning the distinction, even even writing and talking about it

161
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 5: this whole time.

162
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 2: We're RAISINGHLD cards. Just raise your hand. Does any you

163
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 2: know the difference between a deportation order and a withholding order? Yeah?

164
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: Does anybody know the difference? The answers No, of course

165
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: they don't. And you want to get the gotcha questions

166
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: out there, But how do you ask a gotcha question

167
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: if you don't actually know the answer yourself in order

168
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: to have a gotcha question? It's like an attorney in

169
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: a court room. You know what the answer is before

170
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 1: you ask the question. They obviously do. Not unbelievable, but

171
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: he's exactly right as Stephen Miller. It's embarrassing these people

172
00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: call themselves journalists, trying to spin a story that they

173
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: know nothing about nothing, and their excuse is, well, we're

174
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: not in the government, as if it's not their job

175
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: to understand the government that they're asking about and making

176
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: accusations of. Kudos to Steven Miller for fullying them on

177
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 1: the spot. That wasn't the only sort to come out

178
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: of yesterday's meeting. By the way, President mckelly shared some

179
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: well an anecdote. I'd say it's jaw dropping, but really

180
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: it's almost predictable if you didn't hear this one.

181
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 2: Listen close.

182
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, we even had this gun a moment swell from

183
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 7: one of those once you have said it. We interviewed

184
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 7: him just to get some information, etc.

185
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 8: From them, and he said, oh, well, you know, I

186
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 8: got arrested six times, but it released me the six times,

187
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 8: so this should be released again. And then he said, well, well,

188
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 8: what's the last thing the best thing you do? And

189
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 8: he said, well, A cop him the leg.

190
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 2: So I didn't kill him. I just shot him in

191
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 2: the leg.

192
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 7: And we're like, this guy was the rested sixth times.

193
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 2: Here six times, he was released.

194
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 7: Six times and the leg I know he was with

195
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,120
Speaker 7: these five times, and the last time he was sent

196
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 7: to Osava, right, so he's not getting released.

197
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,280
Speaker 8: But the last time he shot a coup actually, and

198
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 8: he shot him the leg.

199
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 2: So these are you know?

200
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 7: I said, yeah, I mean, yeah, there's something broken.

201
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: It's the liberal establishment. But they're not running things anymore

202
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 2: in this country. And we're run by and I don't

203
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: seeking cham, I don't say anything. We're run by people

204
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 2: with great common sense.

205
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: All right, So maybe not jaw dropping, like I said,

206
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: since we knew that this is what the bidendministration was

207
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: aiming to do for four straight years, but still it's shocking.

208
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: It's appalling.

209
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: Thank God for the fact that Homeland Security can actually

210
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: do its job now and get.

211
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: These people off from our street.

212
00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: President tub also floated the idea of getting our own

213
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: homegrown violent offenders from our streets and ship them out.

214
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 2: What do you think of this? They don't play games.

215
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 4: I'd like to go step further. I mean, I say,

216
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 4: I said it to Pam. I don't know what the

217
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 4: laws are. We always have to obey the laws, but

218
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 4: we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways,

219
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 4: that kid elderly ladies on the.

220
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 12: Back of the head with a baseball bat when they're

221
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:28,160
Speaker 12: not looking.

222
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 2: That are absolute monsters. I'd like to include them in the.

223
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 4: Group of people to get them out of the country.

224
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 4: But you'll have to be looking at the laws on

225
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 4: that seat.

226
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: Okay, you know, look, I don't think that it's legal.

227
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it's probably not. You can't just take

228
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 1: somebody and ship them out of the country without due

229
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 1: process and the actual constitutional protections afforded to an actual

230
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: citizen of this country.

231
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 2: But I don't dislike the idea of looking at new ideas.

232
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: How do we make things better, How do we make

233
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: the neighborhoods better for peace people who.

234
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: Can't leave those neighborhoods.

235
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: I mean to think about what it's like for one

236
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: of these neighborhoods or one of these MS thirteen gang

237
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: bangers was removed, and you've got the Democrats saying they

238
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: must come back. You're an elderly person that lives there

239
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: on the corner of whatever city that is, and you

240
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: hear Democrats screaming to bring back MS thirteen gang members

241
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 1: because they didn't get a fair shot.

242
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 13: We like.

243
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: President Trump says it's something he's considering if it fits

244
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: within the rule of law.

245
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: I doubt it, but I'd be willing to bet that

246
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:32,959
Speaker 2: you might put the fear of God to some of

247
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,559
Speaker 2: the criminals anyway. An Al Salvador Max Security prison a

248
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 2: whole other ballgame. In fact, he has a whole other

249
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 2: sport now.

250
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: On the economic front, a good day on Wall Street Monday,

251
00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: not too bad so far.

252
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: Today, another huge win for the American people.

253
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: A groundbreaking contract with one of the world's largest computer

254
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: GIP manufacturing companies in Nvidia, who's committing five hundred billion

255
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: dollars in investment in this country to build computers here

256
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: on American soil. More great news for this country.

257
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:05,239
Speaker 12: To Trump's reaction, well, it's one of the biggest announcements

258
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 12: you'll ever hear because in Nvidia, as you know, controls

259
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 12: that are almost the entire sector, which is one of

260
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 12: the most important sectors in the world, between chips and

261
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 12: semiconductors and everything else in there, they're.

262
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 2: The biggest and the other biggest we already have coming in.

263
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 14: And spending three hundred million, as you know they announced

264
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 14: two weeks ago. But in Vidia is so highly respected

265
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 14: and this was an announcement that a lot of people

266
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 14: I knew it was going to happen, but not to

267
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 14: the extent that it happened. It's being and the reason

268
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 14: they did it is because of the election of November fifth,

269
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 14: and because of a think called tariffs.

270
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: Quick update in the market, it's the downdown about one

271
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: hundred points, Nastik fifteen points, S and P five hundred

272
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: less than five points. Pretty even day on the market,

273
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 1: no no real big fluctuations, and looking at that deal there,

274
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 1: I don't think to be overstated how.

275
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 2: Big of a deal.

276
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: This really is not Even hours before, former Treasury Secretary

277
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: Jenny Yellen called something like this a pipe dream.

278
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 2: No really, she did. Listen for yourself.

279
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:19,680
Speaker 15: Perhaps it's to bring back American manufacturing, but I really

280
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:24,800
Speaker 15: think that's a pipe dream and not something that is

281
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 15: likely to be accomplished. And we could even raise questions

282
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 15: about whether or not in a broad based way, that's

283
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 15: a desirable goal.

284
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: Look, I told you before, Jennie Yellen, she's not bright.

285
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: She's not I told you that for years. Jenny Ellen

286
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: is not a smart woman, not at all.

287
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 2: This is who was in charge for our economic policy, by.

288
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: The way, in large part for the last four years,

289
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: someone who says I'm enjoing American manufacturing jobs not our

290
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,839
Speaker 1: best interests, and Democrats wonder why the working class feels

291
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: left in the dust by them. This contract result in

292
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: more than a million square feet of manu facturing in

293
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: Arizona and Texas, and video Blackwell chips will be built

294
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 1: and tested in Arizona.

295
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 2: AI supercomputers will be.

296
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: Built in Texas for the first time ever, and it's

297
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: going to happen fast. Mass productions expected to ramp up

298
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: in the next twelve or fifteen months. These AI supercomputers

299
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: are in the future. They are the engines behind the data,

300
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 1: the processes, artificial intelligence, and they'll be built here in America.

301
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: That's a win.

302
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: This contract expects to bring hundreds of thousands of jobs

303
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: and trillions of dollars in economic security. This strengthens our

304
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: supply chain, ships away at our dependence on China for anything,

305
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: especially tech production.

306
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: Thank you, President Trump. Let me just say that on

307
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: behalf of the American people. Thank you. Please keep up

308
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 2: the good work. We'll keep it. Eye on that shooting

309
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 2: in Dallas and coming up after the break.

310
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 1: The American Legislative Exchange Council released it's eighteenth edition of

311
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: Rich States, Poor States here on this tax day, which

312
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: measures the economic outlook for each state in the coming year.

313
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 2: How did your state fare? We'll find out after the

314
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 2: break well.

315
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,720

Speaker 1: to the principles of limited government, free markets, and federalism.

321
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be nice here with me to discuss this

322
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: newly released indexes the President and Chief Economist at the

323
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: American Legislative Exchange Council, Jonathan Williams.

324
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 2: Jonathan, nice to see you here today.

325
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,880
Speaker 3: Well, great to be with you, Thanks for the invitations

326
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 3: and greetings from the number one state in America Utah.

327
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: All right, well Utah, all right, so there you've left

328
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: the cat out of the bag. Utah number one for

329
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: economic outlook. Okay, why.

330
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 2: It's a great story.

331
00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 3: We were just doing a press conference with Governor Cox

332
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 3: and the legislative leaders earlier today. It's an incredible success

333
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 3: record of limited government, lower taxes, a state that just

334
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 3: you know, they keep going. Other states across the country

335
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 3: want to catch Utah, but Utah looks around the corner

336
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: and says, what do we need to do to stay

337
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 3: at the top, empower our taxpayers, and as we like

338
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 3: to say, the proofs in the pudding. Utah is the

339
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 3: fastest growing state in America by in terms of GDP

340
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 3: growth over the last year.

341
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 2: Think about this steep for a second.

342
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 3: Utah has more than four and a half percent GDP

343
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 3: growth in the last twelve months, and they're a leader

344
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 3: over the last decade when it comes to GDP growth,

345
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 3: job growth, and even population growth. And so the connection

346
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: between lower taxes and limited government philosophy here, it's done

347
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: wonders for the state of Utah, and I think it's

348
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 3: going to continue.

349
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:51,760
Speaker 2: Based on what we're seeing.

350
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: So other states that see things going in the other direction,

351
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: give me us who who all right, So Utah's first,

352
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: who's last, Jonathan, Well, it's not going to.

353
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 2: Surprise you at all.

354
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 3: New York is dead last at fifty out of fifty.

355
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 3: They've been dead last for twelve years in a row.

356
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: Now they gave it up one year where they.

357
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: Gained an entire one spot to forty ninth, and Vermont,

358
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 3: Bernie Sanders Vermont took it over at dead last.

359
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:19,360
Speaker 2: But it's the mix.

360
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,960
Speaker 3: It's really the toxic mix, Ronald Reagan warned us, which

361
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 3: is the liberal view of the economy.

362
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 2: If it moves, tax it, if it keeps moving, regulated, if.

363
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: It stops moving, subsidize it. That's what we're seeing in

364
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,919
Speaker 3: states like New York, in California and Illinois, which by

365
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,520
Speaker 3: the way, they're the states, Steve that Americans are voting

366
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 3: with their feet very strongly against the states that have

367
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,719
Speaker 3: this high tax format, and they're voting towards states in Texas, Florida,

368
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 3: and Utah that actually value economic freedom empowering individuals.

369
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 1: Sure a little, Jonathan, I'm got to ask you what

370
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: two states that you have not mentioned? And the reason

371
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 1: I mentioned these two states, Ohio and Iowa.

372
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: There's a reason for this. They're both former swing states.

373
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 1: They're most states that used to determine elections, but now

374
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 1: they're very much red states.

375
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 2: What kind of changes do we see there? I see

376
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: glancing at your.

377
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 1: Notes, which is fine, it wasn't supposed to be a

378
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: pop quiz, but I do want to know what are

379
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: these states doing. They become solidly read over the last

380
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: two or three presidential election cycles.

381
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: I don't see that changing. How are they doing well?

382
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 2: Both of those states are great states.

383
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm the Michigan native, as you know well,

384
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 3: and the Midwest has been a competitive region over the years.

385
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 3: Both Iowa and Ohio improved this year in the rankings

386
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 3: because you've had, I think a commitment from both of

387
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 3: those states as they've seen more conservative not just presidential votes,

388
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 3: but more conservative legislators begin to take office over time,

389
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 3: and you've seen this really trend towards both of those

390
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 3: states cutting taxes.

391
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 2: They became in many cases.

392
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,040
Speaker 3: A more pro job creator when it comes to the

393
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 3: lower regulation. And there are states that in Iowa's case,

394
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 3: it kicked off the flat tax revolution just a number

395
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 3: of years ago. Governor Reynolds and legislative leaders, so they've

396
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 3: both been incredible turnarounds tories.

397
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 1: And what about your home state, My home state of

398
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: Michigan much more left of center politics, no question about it,

399
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 1: Governor Whitmer, who hid behind her notebook there in the

400
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: Oval office infamously here a couple of days ago.

401
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 2: What is Michigan doing compared to those two states you

402
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 2: just described. Well, in Michigan falls this year, that's a surprise.

403
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 3: No one is Ohio and Iowa and Indiana and many

404
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 3: states in the Midwest gain losing right to work and

405
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 3: seeing just the reversal of fortunes there. Thank God, we

406
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 3: have Speaker Matt Hall, who as minority leader stopped so

407
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 3: many of the bad things from getting done in Lansing

408
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 3: in December and that horrible lame duck session that the

409
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 3: progressives were running. But Michigan's going to fall this year,

410
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 3: and there's going to be goodlock for the next two years.

411
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 3: And I think we just have to look ahead to

412
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 3: twenty twenty six and hope that we have your freedom,

413
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 3: the minded governor and legislature that comes in and reverses

414
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: this decline.

415
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: You know, to me, can't the people of New York City, Hey, Utah,

416
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: what are you doing? Hey Ohio, what are you doing?

417
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: Hey Indiana?

418
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:02,879
Speaker 13: What do you do?

419
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: It would seem that best practices have been come into play,

420
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 1: But Jonathan, they do not really appreciate your insight here,

421
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: limited government, lower taxes, right to work. These things help

422
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: states to be economically powerful.

423
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 2: Thank you so much. Thanks for having me really appreciate it.

424
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: Tarists, meanwhile, have thrown the global economy into some chaos.

425
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: As you well know, potential widespread inflation tied to massive

426
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 1: supply chain disruptions is weighing heavily on all of us.

427
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 2: But there is a silver lining that most people miss.

428
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 1: President Trump specifically exempted gold and silver bullion from these

429
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: sweeping tariffs. Did you know that while these new policies

430
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,679
Speaker 1: are triggering significant financial chaos, the administration preserved your ability

448
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: involved in an Obama era scandal now quietly running a

449
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 1: division within the IRS. Crazy, right, couldn't happen?

450
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah? Details ahead?

451
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:56,760

Speaker 2: Today is today we all know and love.

453
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: It's tax day and it's my dog's birthday, and I

454
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: was pretty easier to remember when your dogs born on

455
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 1: tax Day, right, I'm kidding, of course, not everybody's favorite

456
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: day except Cody. Speaking of taxes, recently a came to

457
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: light that an IRS official who played a major part

458
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: in the Obama era tea party scandal is now running

459
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 1: a key tax division within the department. Homipaths, a former

460
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: IRS commissioner and Lois Learner's top deputy at the agency.

461
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 2: As Learner and the Obama.

462
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: IRS Allislie target political opponents, and she is currently listed

463
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,200
Speaker 1: on the IRS website as the commissioner of the agency's

464
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 1: large business in the International Division. So government watchdog groups

465
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: were calling for her job to be tripped and dumped.

466
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: Actually given her past here with me to discuss this

467
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: as the CEO for the Alliance of IRS Accountability and

468
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: former chief of Staff and the Senate Chuck Flint.

469
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: Chuck, nice to have you here, Steve, appreciate you having

470
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: me on.

471
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: Look, it's hard to root out all the bad actors

472
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: and all the bad players and all the p with

473
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: ill intent that maybe have an nefarious agenda, But this

474
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: one seems pretty obvious, doesn't it.

475
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 16: You would think Holly Paz has been at the agency

476
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 16: for a long time. She was involved in the tea

477
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:17,320
Speaker 16: Party scandal, was Lowis Learner's top deputy was even accused

478
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 16: of misleading Congress during the tea Party scandal. But the

479
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 16: irony of this is that not only has she remained

480
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 16: at the Agency, but she's actually been promoted and now

481
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 16: she's running a division over there that's running a new team,

482
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 16: a pass through audit team that was created by President

483
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,479
Speaker 16: Biden that's become very politicized in nature, not just because

484
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 16: you have Holly Paz as the commissioner of the division

485
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 16: where it's located, but because of statements and actions that

486
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 16: are very political that have been taken by IRS officials.

487
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 2: And I'll give you a couple of examples. One of

488
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 2: the officials at.

489
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 16: The IRS said that they're looking to go after individuals

490
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 16: who want to make a basis great again, which is

491
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 16: just a slap at President Trump's campaign slogan of making

492
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 16: America great again. Basis simply refers to a type of

493
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 16: common transactions that used that pass through is use and

494
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 16: for the viewers at home, a pass through it can

495
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 16: be an LLC, it could be a partnership. These are

496
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 16: commonly used legal structures.

497
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 2: An escorp is probably the most common one.

498
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 9: To me.

499
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 2: Thees CORP is a past real correct, that's correct.

500
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 16: Another incident or action I would say with political undertones

501
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 16: is they have an Information Document Request form for this

502
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 16: audit team. They've dubbed it the Art of the IDR.

503
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 16: It's a very invasive form that they send to these

504
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 16: pass through businesses.

505
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 2: And President Trump has.

506
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 16: A book that is called The Art of the Deal

507
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 16: and is once again mocking President Trump, mocking his supporters,

508
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 16: a lot of politically charged statementstions. And then you combine

509
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 16: this with the fact that it's being led by a

510
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 16: woman who was involved in the Tea Party scandal, and

511
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 16: what do you have is something that looks a heck

512
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 16: of a lot more like a political hits squad than

513
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 16: any well intentioned endeavor by the I R S.

514
00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:18,159
Speaker 2: And I would just add, and you go back, and

515
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 2: I'll hold on.

516
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:20,920
Speaker 1: I want to go back, Chuck, I mean to the

517
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: whole Lowest Learner deal, right, and that whole thing that

518
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: went on. Conservative nonprofits were not given their clearance. They

519
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,439
Speaker 1: were held and basically at bay for years. Some of them,

520
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 1: some of them you know, were destroyed because of it,

521
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 1: and they act like this is okay, right, this is

522
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: pero like business as usual, and it's not. They should

523
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: never be allowed targeting, mocking, you know, undermining. I don't

524
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 1: know that Donald Trump's aware of this, because I think

525
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,480
Speaker 1: you would do something about it immediately if you knew.

526
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 2: I would, Steve. I would also add, you know, just

527
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:00,879
Speaker 2: to get a little bit more granular.

528
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 16: Even with miss pass, she actually worked on some of

529
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 16: those tea party applications. As I said, she was very

530
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 16: involved in this with Lois Learner and was her top deputy.

531
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 16: So right, it's amazing that she could still be there.

532
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 16: It's amazing that she could be even promoted afterwards. So

533
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 16: we've raised it as an issue. We want to know

534
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 16: more about it, We want records from the IRS. This

535
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 16: team should be eliminated, just based on the fact that

536
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 16: President Trump has issued in executive order to end weaponization

537
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 16: in the federal government, which she did on this.

538
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 2: First day in office.

539
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely true. Check greatly appreciate you being here now. I

540
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: know you're going to keep an eye on so when

541
00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: you find out more, we'll have you back on. We'll

542
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,920
Speaker 1: get an update because this is I mean, this is

543
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: pretty simple stuff here, like I said, some hide some

544
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 1: blend in.

545
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 2: This is not the case. Thank you for the information,

546
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 2: Thank you for the update. Thank you, Steve Hey. I

547
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 2: appreciate well.

548
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: It is a new day in America, a new administration

549
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: watching as you know, a lot of excitement, still an

550
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: optimism about the future of this country. But the reality

551
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 1: is there is a lot of work to do, especially

552
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,159
Speaker 1: when it comes to fixing a broken healthcare system, and

553
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 1: that's been evident for a long time. The truth is

554
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 1: that the forces that are responsible for breaking the healthcare

555
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: system aren't going to simply go away.

556
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,400
Speaker 2: No, they're cashing in on this deal.

557
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 1: The challenges our system faces won't disappear overnight. Now more

558
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: than ever, you need to be prepared no matter what happens,

559
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,880

577
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: President Trump gave a faith filled presidential message on Palm's

578
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: Sunday in honor of Holy Week. With Easter around the corner,

579
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: Good Friday coming in just a couple of days, many

580
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: expected White House celebration to be unique this year.

581
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 2: More details ahead.

582
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 11: All right.

583
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 2: President Trump issued a faith filled presidential.

584
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,800
Speaker 1: Message on Palm Sunday in honor of Holy Week, as

585
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: Christians around the world commemorate the holiest time of the year.

586
00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 1: And now there are reports that his administration is also

587
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: planning a unique Easter staff worship ceremony at the White House.

588
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 1: President Trump's Holy Week message wasn't a typical official government statement.

589
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: It was filled with the type of language used by Christians,

590
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: not that pointing to this week is being sacred to

591
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 1: his personal faith. He me to discuss this as the

592
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: president some admnistries. Doctor Jeff Myers, You know, Jeff, it's

593
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 1: not the first. First of all, I did to see

594
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: it's been a while. It's not unusual for there to

595
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: be prayer sessions at the White House. John Tyler held

596
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 1: Bible studies. He was a tenth president, might have been

597
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: a year or two ago, had fifteen kids, and you

598
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 1: know when they said go forth and multiply, he took

599
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: that seriously.

600
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 2: He took Bible studies seriously. But man, in this day

601
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 2: and age, for Donald Trump to say such things as

602
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 2: just it's triggering to some people. I personally love it.

603
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 10: What do you say, Well, there are people who are

604
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 10: triggered when you say that the earth revolves around the

605
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 10: sun too, and that.

606
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 2: We just have to recognize.

607
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 10: I mean, nine out of ten American believe that Jesus

608
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 10: bodily rose from the dead. Two thirds of Americans say

609
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 10: they believe that the facts as presented in the Bible

610
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 10: are completely accurate. So when you have administrations like the

611
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 10: past administration, the Biden administration that shows instead of offering

612
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 10: an Easter message to offer a message on transgender Day

613
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 10: of Visibility. You can see the tone deafness of that,

614
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 10: whereas the Trump administration is essentially saying, look, we're with you.

615
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 10: This is a fact of history. It is the single

616
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 10: most provable fact in all of history. It's something that

617
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 10: we worship. It's part of our worship, but it's also

618
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 10: part of actual reality, and we lose nothing by acknowledging it.

619
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 2: That's exactly right.

620
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: Christmas is alive, Easter is alive, Good Friday is alive.

621
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: It's it just seems to me. And you spend a

622
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: lot of time obviously looking at these things, Jeff, I mean,

623
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: it's some administries and all the things you do in

624
00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: the books, right, and the people you talk to. It

625
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: really does feel like we're taking the country back from

626
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: the radicals that have you believe that, you know, you

627
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,680
Speaker 1: can butcher children and turn them into something they're not,

628
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: that you can throw God out of the public square

629
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,560
Speaker 1: in the public school and it'll be good for everybody.

630
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 2: None of that is true. I mean, look at the

631
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 2: French Revolution. How'd that work for them?

632
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 1: They kicked God out and brought in logic and reason,

633
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: didn't work so well for them.

634
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 2: Noah did it well.

635
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 10: There's an old saying, if you marry the spirit of

636
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 10: the age, you'll be a widower in the next and

637
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:33,959
Speaker 10: that is I think what a lot of people are

638
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 10: seeing in our own time. They're saying, look, we tried this,

639
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 10: we tried this thing of you are your own truth.

640
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 10: We tried this thing of you can be whatever gender

641
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 10: you want to be. This is not leading us to

642
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 10: purpose in life. It's causing us to be focused on

643
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 10: ourselves when we should be focused on others. And we're

644
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 10: seeing massive, massive changes in young adults at some administries.

645
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 10: This is our enrollment. We're completely full for all the

646
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 10: programs that we have. We've never had such interest in

647
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 10: our program and young men in the United States of

648
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 10: America seem to be the ones who are turning the corner.

649
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 2: You know, counterintuitive? Do you fund the counterintuitive, Jeff?

650
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is, you know, during COVID,

651
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: churches got closed, the pews emptied, a lot of people

652
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 1: never went back to the church.

653
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 2: And yet you're saying.

654
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: There's a resurgeon in Christianity right now despite what happened

655
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:24,959
Speaker 1: with COVID.

656
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 10: There is a resurgence in Christianity. The decline of Christianity

657
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 10: has leveled. That's never that never happened in Europe. So

658
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 10: that's why sociologists were startled when they started seeing that

659
00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 10: happen in the last couple of years. And then they

660
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 10: began asking the question, why is it leveling? And it's

661
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 10: largely young men. Young men eighteen to twenty nine years

662
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 10: of age are significantly more likely than young women in

663
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 10: that same age to say that they are evangelicals, to

664
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 10: say that they do not embrace the title nuns.

665
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 2: You know, which religion are you?

666
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 10: None of the above kind of And so what we're

667
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 10: seeing right now is it's young men. And yes, sociologically

668
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 10: that's never happened before. We've never had a sociological epic

669
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 10: where where men were more likely to be spiritual than women.

670
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 2: But it's true.

671
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 10: If society has a if men have a if men

672
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 10: are godly, society has a big view of God. If

673
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 10: men are not godly, society has a small view of God.

674
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 10: And that's a challenge to all of us as men

675
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 10: to be the kind of you know, to be real men,

676
00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 10: to stand up for other people rather than to stand again.

677
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,720
Speaker 1: I love the fact that you're saying this, Jeff, on

678
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: this program for the last several years, and on my

679
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 1: radio program for a dozen years before that, I've been

680
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 1: saying America needs more real men, more real fathers, more

681
00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 1: nuclear families. And I thought for a long time I

682
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: was yelling into the dark. But you're giving me hope here, Jeff,

683
00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: You really are. There's a resurgence here, that there's a

684
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: hope and an opportunity for men to stand up and

685
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: be real men again.

686
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 2: That's right.

687
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 10: There has been a toxic war against masculine, a masculine,

688
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,040
Speaker 10: as Nancy Pearcy put it, and now we're starting to

689
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 10: see that what you really need is real men, real

690
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,479
Speaker 10: men who have conditions, who have courage, who are willing

691
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 10: to stand for what is right, and they're even willing

692
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 10: to take arrows for what they believe is right. And

693
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 10: as soon as you have that, you have the possibility

694
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 10: of not only a revival in society, but a reformation

695
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 10: of society.

696
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 2: And we may be witnesses it right now, Doctor Jeff Myers.

697
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 1: I can talk to you about this for the next hour,

698
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: but Donald Trump's making his way out, so we're gonna

699
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:33,840
Speaker 1: have to go and take a look at that. But

700
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 1: you come back anytime. Of course, as you know, I

701
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 1: know you've been off writing a book. We'll talk about

702
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: that next time you come back maybe, and you can

703
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 1: tell us about it.

704
00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 2: Thank you for being here. Thanks Steve. Good to see him.

705
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:43,880
Speaker 11: All right.

706
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: We're keeping an eye on the White House.

707
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,839
Speaker 1: Donaldrump's going to sign a memo today that will say

708
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: only American citizens can get Social Security, among other things.

709
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 2: We'll talk about that.

710
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:57,879
Speaker 1: Plus we've got Cognitsman Tom Barrett to discuss his actor

711
00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: recently passed the Senate.

712
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 2: The Clear Community for Veterans Claims Act. I'll tell you

713
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 2: what that means. Still to come. You know, I always

714
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: like it when it's my congressman on the program.

715
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: Just this month, the House of Representative passed the Clear

716
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 1: Communications for Veterans Claims Act, the bill now awaiting consideration

717
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,640
Speaker 1: in the Senate. This bill requires the Department Veterans Affairs

718
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: to seek to enter into an agreement with a federally

719
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: funded research and development center to assess notices that the

720
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,360
Speaker 1: VA sends to claimants applying for or submitting claims for

721
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: VA benefits. The VA must report on the findings of

722
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 1: the assessment and implement recommendations in the assessment. Jemmy, I'll

723
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 1: discussed this as the man who got had done my

724
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: Congressman Tom Barrett of Michigan seventh the Congression District.

725
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,919
Speaker 2: Tom. Always nice to see you, my friend.

726
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're finally getting a little bit more comfortable

727
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: there in Washington. Got this peace of legislation over to

728
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: the Senate. Tell the folks what it means, what's it

729
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 1: going to do.

730
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: Thank you, Steve, thanks for having me on.

731
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 13: And you're right, this was a priority of mind coming

732
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 13: into office because of course, anybody who's interfaced with the

733
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 13: federal government and any agency can recognize how frustrating and

734
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,360
Speaker 13: difficult that process can be.

735
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 6: Interfacing with the federal bureaucracy.

736
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 13: The VA is among the largest bureaucracies in the entire world,

737
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 13: and we have a lot of veterans who apply for

738
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,480
Speaker 13: benefits that they've earned through their service in the military,

739
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 13: often at great sacrifice of their own and sadly, many

740
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 13: of them give up their claims and benefits because they

741
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 13: get so frustrated with the process once they're going forward.

742
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 13: So right now, if you apply for a benefit from

743
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 13: the Department of Veteran Affairs, oftentimes you're met with a

744
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 13: whole bunch of notices that come through the mail, a

745
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 13: bunch of form letters that are computer system that is

746
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:58,399
Speaker 13: archaic and generally speaking, out of date and not up

747
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 13: to sync with the technology changes. And there's going to

748
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 13: be a redundancy of letters that come in, often in

749
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 13: very dense legal speak, often in bureaucratics speak in bureaucratic

750
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 13: language as well. That all combine to make it very

751
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 13: challenging for veterans just the benefits that they've earned to

752
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 13: their service.

753
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: So, you know, during Downandlaws first administration, a lot of

754
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: the things for veterans did improve, a lot of the

755
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 1: roadblocks to service, a lot of the you know, standing

756
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: in line, not being able to get to a doctor

757
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,839
Speaker 1: in a timely fashion. How do you feel we are

758
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 1: situated now to improve treatments for veterans all across the

759
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,400
Speaker 1: spectrum of post service benefits.

760
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,880
Speaker 13: We certainly, you know, made good strides in that direction,

761
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 13: but there's still a lot left to go. We've also

762
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 13: seen a new generation of veterans who are now claiming benefits.

763
00:37:58,600 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 13: You know, a lot of the post nine to eleven

764
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 13: era veterans who are now coming home through whether it's

765
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 13: through the Pact Act, or you know, other reasons that

766
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 13: have arisen from their service for benefits. And we still

767
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 13: have members who served in past conflicts who may not

768
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 13: have had a physical condition arise until much later in

769
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:18,759
Speaker 13: their life. It could be a cancer that developed, you know,

770
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 13: thirty forty or fifty years after they came home, but

771
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 13: was attributable to an exposure that they had in the service,

772
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 13: and that's something that we always have to be mindful of.

773
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 13: And when they applied for these benefits or when they

774
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,320
Speaker 13: put in a claim, oftentimes that's they're only interfacing with

775
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 13: the Department of Veteran Affairs.

776
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 6: That they're ever going to do in their life, and

777
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 6: so we have to make it you know, oftentimes these.

778
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,319
Speaker 13: Developed from the vantage point of the department and those

779
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 13: that are approving or denying the claims, and not from

780
00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 13: the vantage point of the person applying.

781
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,479
Speaker 6: And that's throughout government, not just within the VA.

782
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,200
Speaker 13: It just feels like within the VA specifically because the

783
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 13: density of the type of layering of statute in existence,

784
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 13: the layering from that a bureaucratic.

785
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,400
Speaker 2: Things lead to this.

786
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 6: Frustrating process and we're trying to smooth that out for veterans.

787
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: We appreciate that. Tom Baron, always great to have you here.

788
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,680
Speaker 1: I appreciate what you're doing for veterans. Doug Collins real

789
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: quickly before we go, are you pleased with his work

790
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: so far?

791
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 13: The new VA Adminisshire was actually he was in my

792
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 13: district just about two weeks ago.

793
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 2: It was great to have the Secretary of the VA here.

794
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 13: We did a town hall with veterans and Howell and

795
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:41,720
Speaker 13: my district and that was something that was really important.

796
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:45,359
Speaker 13: We visited two different VA hospitals together and learned kind

797
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 13: of the particulars about how they operate differently and what's

798
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 13: going to happen there. And I'm working closely with him

799
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 13: on this upgrade to our electronic health record system. That's

800
00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:58,000
Speaker 13: something that's been necessary for a long time, but it's

801
00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:01,080
Speaker 13: been met with a lot of problem as the VA

802
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 13: has tried to unroll that in different areas, and Michigan

803
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 13: is next up to get that rollout of the new

804
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 13: electronic health record system, which will then allow interoperability between

805
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 13: veterans health records within the VA and then their health

806
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 13: record maybe at a private doctor somewhere or another place

807
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 13: that they go for some of their healthcare.

808
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 2: It's something we need to do, and I'm working closely

809
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 2: with the Secretary on that.

810
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 1: One last question. We're keeping an eye by the way

811
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: out for Donald Trump. He is supposed to be in

812
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: signing an executive order a memo when it comes to

813
00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,439
Speaker 1: social security that will only go to American Citizen's pretty

814
00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: good idea, i'd say, Congressman, But i'd be remember to

815
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 1: ask you about the trade war with China. What do

816
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: you think about the tariffs and the things that are

817
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: going on right now? The market's pretty even again today.

818
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: They seem to have settled down a fair amount.

819
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:45,280
Speaker 2: What are your thoughts?

820
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 13: Yeah, well, you know, I think Americans realize that we

821
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 13: have to put ourselves in the driver's seat of controlling

822
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 13: our own destiny as it relates to jobs, manufacturing.

823
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,720
Speaker 6: And I even look at it honestly from a national

824
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 6: security standpoint.

825
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 13: You know, a couple of generations ago that my grandfather

826
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:04,720
Speaker 13: fought in World War Two, and we had the ability

827
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 13: to really build the machinery that we needed to defend

828
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:09,440
Speaker 13: ourselves and.

829
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 6: Fight the wars that were necessary for America.

830
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 13: If we enter a conflict God forbid at some point,

831
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 13: we have to make sure that we're able to defend

832
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 13: ourselves and build the machinery that it's going to take

833
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 13: to defend in safeguard America.

834
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 2: And today I don't think we can claim that we

835
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:24,279
Speaker 2: have that.

836
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 13: And I think the President's actions are really intended to

837
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 13: not just protect American manufacturing for the sake of our

838
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 13: economy and our jobs and the livelihoods that come from that.

839
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:36,879
Speaker 2: Those are very important. But I look at it also

840
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 2: from the national security standpoint.

841
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,640
Speaker 13: Will we be able to build the things that are

842
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 13: necessary to defend ourselves in future conflicts?

843
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 2: Well, I certainly hope.

844
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:45,080
Speaker 13: So.

845
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: We've got rare earth elements and minerals in Michigan and Minnesota.

846
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: There are things we can do right here at home,

847
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,200
Speaker 1: as everybody knows. Kays and Tom there, my friend. Always

848
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 1: good to see you.

849
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 6: Great to see you too. Thank you so much for

850
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,320
Speaker 6: having me on, Steve, really appreciate it.

851
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: Good talk to you again. All right, My congressman, I

852
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: always appreciate see him. Will take a quick break and

853
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 1: be back in just a moment, all right. A Tax

854
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: Day edition of America's Voice Life. President Trump expected to

855
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: participate in the Commander in Chief Trophy presentation of the

856
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: Navy Midshipment at the.

857
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 2: US Naval Academy.

858
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:27,839
Speaker 1: Jtn's that's justin News's White House correspondent and co host

859
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: of justin News No Noise. Amana Head was at the

860
00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:33,480
Speaker 1: White House earlier today. Amanda, thank you for breaking free

861
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,120
Speaker 1: and stepping in with us. A lot going on today,

862
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: including this memo that will mean that only American citizens

863
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: can get Social Security.

864
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 2: What an idea, right, Oh can you imagine?

865
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 9: I mean, so many common sense ideas. Joani Ernst has

866
00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 9: a bill that she's proposing to audit IRS agents because

867
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:57,120
Speaker 9: apparently IRS agents ow literally millions of dollars in back taxes.

868
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,760
Speaker 9: There is a theme here, Steve.

869
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 2: I know you have recognized that.

870
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 9: You and I collectively recognized it in the first term

871
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 9: when we were with rav It's just common sense and

872
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 9: so much of this. You know, Democrats love to say, oh,

873
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,439
Speaker 9: those people, you know, the people over one hundred and twenty,

874
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 9: they weren't receiving Social Security benefits. Well, first of all, duck,

875
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 9: because no one's over one hundred and twenty. But it's

876
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 9: not even the fact that they were receiving benefits. It's

877
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 9: the fact that they are on the role. And this

878
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 9: is the party who cares about green energy. Think of

879
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 9: all of the carbon that is being used to process

880
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,800
Speaker 9: all of that within the computer system. It's all just

881
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 9: so common sense, and Steve, Democrats are finding themselves in

882
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 9: a very uncomfortable place so often because it's on the

883
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 9: opposite side of common sense.

884
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:42,520
Speaker 1: Right, And here's common sense. You cannot call now he's

885
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,919
Speaker 1: going to sign this to you cannot call it. Change

886
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 1: your social Security benefits? And where it's going to get

887
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,840
Speaker 1: mailed to them? Where you're textionaling. You have to appear

888
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:49,280
Speaker 1: in person?

889
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:53,000
Speaker 2: What an idea? What an idea? Because if you're dead,

890
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 2: you can't show up.

891
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 9: And if you're you know, if you're an illegal immigrant,

892
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,240
Speaker 9: you should not be receiving a Social Security number. Therefore

893
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,240
Speaker 9: you should not be a to file to be eligible

894
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,759
Speaker 9: for Social Security benefits. Again, all of this is just

895
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 9: I think for so many Americans, Steve, we look at

896
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,319
Speaker 9: this stuff and we're thinking to ourselves, wait, that wasn't

897
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 9: the case before. I feel like everybody has that incredulous

898
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 9: thought about practically everything that President Trump is doing. It's like, wait,

899
00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:18,800
Speaker 9: that wasn't what it was before?

900
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:21,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, how did we not do it that way before?

901
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 2: You're kidding me? We hear that.

902
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 11: Love.

903
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,200
