1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray

2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people.

3
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: You're not going to free shot all these networks lying

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: about the people. The people have had a belly full

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 1: of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I

6
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: know you tried to do everything in the world to

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: stop that, but you're not going to stop it. It's

8
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: going to happen. And where do people like that go

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: to share the big line? Mega media?

10
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of

11
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: these people had a conscience.

12
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

13
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: If that answer is to save my country, this country

14
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 1: will be saved. Worry. Here's your host, Stephen k Man. Yeah,

15
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: but we listen.

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: Like any autopsy requires being a doctor, right. You just

17
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 2: have to look at this clinically. And there's no way

18
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 2: to look at the data and not say, you look

19
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: at that map of states where they did worse, or

20
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 2: counties were Democrats did worse, or even in cities where

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 2: they did worse, and not realize that it was a

22
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 2: pretty unambiguous verdict on the Democratic Party and one that

23
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 2: they did not expect. I mean, the good news for

24
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: Democrats will be like, listen, like, we live in a

25
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 2: fifty to fifty country and redemption is always an off

26
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: your election away. But for a lot of Democrats you

27
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: talk to the same people we do, they feel like

28
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 2: they're lost. They don't really feel like they have an

29
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 2: obvious route, they don't feel like they have an obvious

30
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 2: leader to lead them out of the wilderness. And so

31
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 2: it's going to be, you know, a year, years long

32
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 2: project to figure out why are Republicans cutting into the

33
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 2: working class, Why her Hispanics, which were so reliably Democratic

34
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: voters now turning to Republicans.

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,120
Speaker 1: Why are even some young.

36
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: Voters who used to be really sympathetic to the Democratic

37
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: Party moving towards Trump.

38
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: And that's a lot to unpack.

39
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: And until you look at it clinically and clear eyed,

40
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 2: you're not going to come to the conclusions of how

41
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,040
Speaker 2: do you fix what you have?

42
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: Well, any thoughts, Jim from what you've heard, I mean,

43
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 3: you are right, it is. The good news is this

44
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 3: isn't an FDR fifty five to forty five nation or

45
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 3: a Reagan you know, forty nine state sweep. It is

46
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 3: at the end of the day, you take the three

47
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 3: Blue Wall states it would have elected Harris. You have

48
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 3: Democrats winning two of the three.

49
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Senate seats there.

50
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: You have Kamala Harris within a point in Wisconsin, a

51
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 3: couple of points in Michigan, a couple of points in Pennsylvania.

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 4: Again, not a landslide there, but my.

53
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 3: Gosh, you did worse than forty eight Democrats and the

54
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 3: worse than forty eight of the fifty states.

55
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: They got rounded.

56
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 3: By thirteen points or so in Florida, thirteen fourteen points

57
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: or so in Texas, when in Texas they were getting

58
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: closer and closer over the past fifteen years to actually

59
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 3: making that race competitive.

60
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: Nothing, nothing there.

61
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 3: So what are you hearing from Democrats mainly that is

62
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,840
Speaker 3: there any sort of consistency in these early days.

63
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: I don't think there's any consensus, and there rarely is

64
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 2: as close to an election. I think you would kind

65
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: of hit on it at the top of your statement

66
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: right there, that the redemption probably exists in trying to

67
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: figure out why are they doing well with governors in

68
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: states like Michigan and in Pennsylvania, and why are some

69
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: of these Senate candidates able to win in states where

70
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 2: Vice President Harris could not win. Start to figure out

71
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: what's different about their politics than the politics you see

72
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 2: in Washington. They know, like listen, it is like we're

73
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: now twenty years into this trend where whenever we give

74
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: people that want something different, there's always a sort of

75
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 2: anti ruling class backlash.

76
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: So presumably in the.

77
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 2: Off yr elections or the next presidential election, they should

78
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: do better. But we've been talking about this a lot

79
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: on this show for the last year. The thing that

80
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 2: there's been a sire in Ringing, like, why were Hispanics

81
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 2: moving even long before this towards Republicans. Why are working

82
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: class voters used to be the bedrock of the Democratic Party,

83
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: you know, the Bernie Sanders crowd. Why are they suddenly

84
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 2: attracted to Trump? And it's very hard to win national

85
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: elections just having really rich educated people in big cities

86
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 2: loving you.

87
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: You need more.

88
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 2: You've got to have a more diverse coalition. You've got

89
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: to be able to appeal to working class voters who

90
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: are worried about inflation and economic topics. And so someone

91
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 2: will emerge at some point to be able to lead

92
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 2: them out of the Promised Land. But there's not an

93
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: obvious figure. I don't think Michelle and Barack Obama want

94
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 2: to lead a revival of the party, and Barack Obama

95
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 2: can't run again anyways, It's going to be very hard

96
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: for Vice President Harris to say, hey, I lost and

97
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,599
Speaker 2: did worse than Joe Biden in forty eight states, but

98
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 2: I'm the person to lead you. And so they're going

99
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 2: to have to find who are those figures to lead them?

100
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 1: It's hockeing.

101
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 2: Jeffery's probably going to be the most powerful Democrat by

102
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: virtue of his position.

103
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: Is he the future of the party. I don't know.

104
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 2: Probably one of those governors you mentioned.

105
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: Okay, welcome, this is Friday, eight November. You're over a

106
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: lord twenty twenty four. Dave Brad joins me. So, look,

107
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 1: I want to already in a celebratory mood and reflecting

108
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: on the great work that this audience did and achieving this.

109
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: And if you were normal folks in a normal audience

110
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: or don't suit, we would just do this and celebrate

111
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:39,839
Speaker 1: and talk smack for weeks and weeks and weeks. The

112
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: reason we have this victory is because of you, and

113
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: because of the courage of President Trump, but also divine providence.

114
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: Do not forget the assassination attempt became one eighth of

115
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: one eighth of one tenth of one twenty of one

116
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: millimeter from having President Trump's head blown off right on

117
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: live TV. That was the work. That was the hand

118
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: of God. That was the hand of God that gave

119
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: us the opportunity, the inflection point for you to use

120
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: your agency three months later, four months later and deliver

121
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: this stunning victory, the same divine providence to put me

122
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 1: into prison, right because it is God's plan. But now

123
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: we have new work to do in this audience is

124
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: just you got to get up, You got to get

125
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: to the ramparts because there's so much happening. But the

126
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 1: reason I want to start with Jim Vanderhey, he's one

127
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: of the smartest guys out there, and we'll have another

128
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 1: clip later. He's a progressive Democrat. He's Mike Allen's partner

129
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 1: of Axius. They built these guys were you know, staffers

130
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: at the Washington Post. They gave the Washington Posts an

131
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: idea but how to really cover politics in the Imperial Capitol,

132
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: and the Washington Post blew them off and they went

133
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: got other money from other people and they formed Politico.

134
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 1: They created political out of nothing career political and then

135
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: sold it for two billion dollars to the Germans. And

136
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: then they went and started axios because they said, hey,

137
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: we got to do it with less attention span, more

138
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:31,600
Speaker 1: impact in axios, both political and axios. The reality is

139
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: it drives a lot of the thinking that what I

140
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: call the Washington consensus every day. It's what every power

141
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: player reads first thing, one of the first things. So

142
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: when Jim vander hay talks, people listened, but more importantly,

143
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 1: when he thinks, people want to know he's thinking. And

144
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: right there he lays it out. We are a red

145
00:07:53,200 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: country with blue cities and university towns. We've made inroads

146
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: into both of those. We held and added a little

147
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: bit to the suburban and exuberban in the rural, and

148
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: the rural stood up like nobody's business. But we've made

149
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: meaningful and significant inroads to the university towns with young people,

150
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: particularly men, young men, and into the blue cities. We're

151
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 1: now in New York City, the South Bronx Trump and

152
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: that is all because of Trump. We have in front

153
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: of us a duty and an obligation to the country,

154
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: to the citizens into Trump to make this work. Two

155
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 1: things that we need to do. I think immediately is

156
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: number one with everything that's happening on transition. And I'll

157
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: get into this in a second, is that. I think

158
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: if you ask President Trump right now on his transition,

159
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 1: what he would tell you The one thing he wants

160
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 1: is for people to get along and for people to

161
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: figure out how to make it work. You're not going

162
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 1: to have all maga in the White House. You're not

163
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: going to have all maga in these cabinet Positions's just

164
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 1: not going to happen. You're going to get some, but

165
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: there are just going to be some establishment people in there.

166
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:32,400
Speaker 1: That's just reality what President Trump I think wants, and

167
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: I think you can see how tired he is. Tired.

168
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 1: He's tired because look, he put the whole thing on

169
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: his shoulders for months and months, but for years back

170
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: from twenty twenty one. You know that you've been here

171
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: from the beginning, but in the last year and particularly

172
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 1: the last six months, it's almost superhuman what he did.

173
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: He put the whole thing on his shoulders in every

174
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 1: day delivered. He deserve nerves people to try to make

175
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: this work and to try to get along. Now, there's

176
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: obviously some things we have to fight, and we have

177
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: to make sure that we have is back in this fight,

178
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 1: like against the lobbyists and the swamp that clearly wants

179
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: to come and just take over right now. The other

180
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: thing that we have to do is outside. I had

181
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: an opportunity to talk to the Freedom Caucus and their

182
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: conference last night day day. Brett went over with me

183
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: and Natalie and some of the producers. Because Congress is

184
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: the House is going to be everything. The House is

185
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: where the action is, and hey, this is kind of

186
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: the way the Framers set it up. They built it

187
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: upon the House of Commons. The Senate was always supposed

188
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 1: to be a more deliberative body, kind of the adults

189
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: in the room, but very removed from the day to

190
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: day action. They wanted the action to be in the House.

191
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,719
Speaker 1: And what I would tell folks, particularly as we work

192
00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 1: through this program, or what this program is going to

193
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 1: be in the Trump's first one hundred days or first

194
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 1: six months, because that is about as much time as

195
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 1: you're going to get every day you have to come

196
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 1: to work. We have to say that they voted for Trump,

197
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: but we got the benefits of Trump in the House

198
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: and some of these Senate races, but what they're doing,

199
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 1: particularly the black community, Hispanic community, where we got paid

200
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: these pickups young men who may have never been involved before,

201
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: low proventacy voters. It's almost a cry for help. It's saying, hey,

202
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: I can't stand and I can't take what the Biden Harris,

203
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, ruling class is doing to the country and

204
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 1: doing to me personally. So help. I don't really know

205
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 1: who you guys are. I'm told you're racist, I'm told

206
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 1: you're natives. I'm told you're xenophobic. I'm told you're homophobic,

207
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: I'm told you massa. I'm told every day that you're

208
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: the worst people on earth. But I'll give you a shot.

209
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 1: Because of Trump and crafting this program that focus on

210
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: the economy and the sovereignty of the country, the immigration deportations,

211
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 1: which are the first thing that have to happen, just

212
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 1: drive this into the ground. He Keeme Jeffries could be

213
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: will be the Speaker of the House in two years,

214
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: and the first thing he will do in the early

215
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 1: days of twenty to twenty seven is moved to impeach

216
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Trust me, they're going to put ten billion

217
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: dollars in back of him. They have nobody else it's

218
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: it's all been washed away. The Biden and the and

219
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,839
Speaker 1: Obama didn't want it. That's what we kept saying on

220
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: the show. You could tell it was half hearted down there.

221
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,800
Speaker 1: Look he's glad and along. He's got one hundred million

222
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: dollars deal on Netflix. They're not going to go to Vanner.

223
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 1: Hey knows, they're not going to come back and do

224
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: this because it's work, hard work. The King Jefferys is

225
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 1: just sitting there right He's ready to go read Hoffman's

226
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: of the World and put ten billion dollars in back

227
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 1: them to win a couple of seats, a handful of

228
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 1: seats in places that are kind of democratic anyway, everything

229
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: we do, you have to understand how do we deliver?

230
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 1: How do we deliver? Now? What do these people need?

231
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: And I'm not for saying you've got to have government

232
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,320
Speaker 1: personality that What do we need to revive this economy?

233
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: What do we need to really regain our standing in

234
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: the world without being the American Empire? What do we

235
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: have to do to get our sovereignty back. That's what

236
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: they're pleading for, and that's what we have to work

237
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: with President Trump to accomplish. If we do that, then

238
00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:01,319
Speaker 1: Tuesday is nineteen thirty two. If we don't do that,

239
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: because you're not going to have another Trump. It's not

240
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: going to happen in this country. It's come along through

241
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: divine providence, a General Washington, a President Lincoln, a president

242
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: of a President Trump, a Reagan, an FDR next time,

243
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: Andrew Jackson. It doesn't happen that often, and once it happens,

244
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: it's decades and decades and decades and decades before it

245
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: happens again. What has happened as providential? And now it's

246
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 1: time for a gut check. Are we prepared to meet

247
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: the moment? Are we prepared to leave it all on

248
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 1: the field, and leave it all on the field now truth?

249
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 5: Bert Hughes, your host, Stephen k back, Okay, welcome back,

250
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 5: Dave brad.

251
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: We went over to the House Freedom Caucus had their seminar.

252
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: They've kicked off for the new members. What about five

253
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 1: hundred people, many of our colleagues and the movement conservatives.

254
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: I gave a variation of that last night, not quite

255
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: the I kept it more secular. Let's say, right your

256
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: thoughts of where we are right now, what we have

257
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 1: to you were in Congress, you know the pressures. The

258
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: pressure is that the cartel in the swamp. And look,

259
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: we're a massive industrial economy and post industrial economy, the people,

260
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 1: and the way we have it is Washington is a

261
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: little bit like a bizarre right and you have these

262
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: needs and wants, these major corporations and you have these

263
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: lot and that's just going to happen. But the thing

264
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: that is before us, and maybe we can do the

265
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: cuts on deportation, because totally is going to happen now

266
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: on the left, it's the point of contact, the point

267
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: of contact the stops is on the mass deportation. So

268
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: that's going to be a core point of contact. And

269
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: you got Bensman and Oscar Blue saying, hey, they're going

270
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: to get another five hundred thousand towl million in here

271
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 1: before the before they get cut off the economy, the

272
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: capital markets, the massive debts that were kind of stuck

273
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: in the system, and had he actually unwind it that

274
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: that they now got everybody on the government payroll, not

275
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: just people, not just the people, people in the government

276
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: prayer roll. But they've handed out so much stuff to

277
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: kind of entrap the working class, in the in the

278
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: middle class, it's very tough to unwind it's taking us

279
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: forty fifty years to get here. They've turbo charged it recently,

280
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 1: and they're trying to spike the cannon, says as Scott

281
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: Besson says in the capital markets. So we're in a jam.

282
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: We're in a jam, and we got to fight our

283
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: way out of here now. And the American people said, hey,

284
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: I'm going to give you a shot. Right, I'm going

285
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: to give you a shot. So we got to take it.

286
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 6: Your thoughts, Yeah, well, I'm glad you opened with thankfulness

287
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 6: to God because we are at a critical juncture right now.

288
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 4: The economy.

289
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 6: We all know, they printed nine trillion dollars, we're running

290
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 6: two trillion dollar deficits, and so it's very important to

291
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,199
Speaker 6: lay out the economic baseline for us.

292
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 4: Where are we?

293
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 6: Productivity has been going down for seventy years, no human being,

294
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 6: even President Trump, with all the great things he's going

295
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 6: to do, he's going to turn that around to pay

296
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 6: off thirty five trillion in debt. And when you got

297
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 6: Warren Buffett going, okay, stop, you're never going to pay off.

298
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,959
Speaker 6: Take this to the bank. You're never going to pay

299
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 6: off one penny of the face amount of the debt.

300
00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: You just if you can just pay the interest right

301
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: right now, right and stop the bleeding. We're at thirty six,

302
00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: we're going to be at forty before you know. It's

303
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: a tree in dollars every hundred days. If you can

304
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: just stop that the first ord amante, you've got to

305
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,919
Speaker 1: stop that. You got to triage this. So the thirty

306
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: five tree in is like that. That is what modern

307
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: monetary theory got us. And it's not gonna you will

308
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 1: never pay off of the thirty six tree in that's

309
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: there this morning. Not one penny of the face amount

310
00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: of that will ever be paid off. Did you just

311
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: have to assume that because we're adding a tree in

312
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: dollars it every hundred days plus these massive interest bills,

313
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 1: is that not?

314
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 4: Yeah?

315
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 1: No, that's right.

316
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 6: And as vesn't laid out yesterday, the bond market vigilantes

317
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 6: are starting to get nervous. I thought this was gonna

318
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 6: happen a few years ago. It should have happened a

319
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 6: few years ago, right, So the Fed policies going inverse

320
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 6: to what the bond market is doing.

321
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 4: And that's a problem.

322
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 6: And the main point I'm trying to make here is

323
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,719
Speaker 6: that this market is gonna crack. We just don't know

324
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 6: the timing, right, there's credit problems in the banks, et cetera.

325
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 6: And we need to just lay thatstline that things are

326
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 6: not good. Right now, there's twelve percent literacy in Chicago

327
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 6: for the kids. Right, you want to ask yourself, what

328
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,200
Speaker 6: can this country do that's populous to help the black

329
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 6: brown Every church and every synagogue needs to get out

330
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 6: in the city, in all your public schools and to

331
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,919
Speaker 6: help those kids learn to read. That will gain the

332
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 6: trust of the American people. And then in two years

333
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 6: you might not get the norm right. But I just

334
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,959
Speaker 6: want to go back to another baseline too. It's this

335
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 6: whole country invoked God. President Trump invote God, Steve Bannon

336
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 6: invote God, Protestants, Catholics, Synagogues, everybody invoked God for the wind.

337
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 6: And then God delivers the wind. And now the question

338
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,840
Speaker 6: is on us. Right, the ancient hebrew people, after they

339
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 6: were delivered from bondage, were complaining in the desert. You know,

340
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 6: within no time Jesus' own disciples tonight, the most important

341
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 6: night of his life prior to the resurrection, left them

342
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,679
Speaker 6: on the hard work that needs to be done. And

343
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 6: so that's the question now to the Christian church to

344
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 6: the religious folks who invote God. If you invote God,

345
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 6: now is the time for action. And so that action

346
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 6: takes place in a number of ways. And I just

347
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 6: a couple of quick statistics which I just found fascinating.

348
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 6: Catholic vote plus ten for Trump. Evangelicals delivered eighty two percent.

349
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 6: So Ralph Reid was right. We had some naysayers on

350
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 6: that bit. On the Harris regime outperformed Biden in one

351
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 6: key piece of infanty. I think you also saw the

352
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 6: thing that went viral where Kamala didn't outperform Biden on anything.

353
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 4: Actually she did.

354
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 6: She was plus ten over Biden with atheists and non believers.

355
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 6: And this is the thing we have to turn around.

356
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 6: It's not good in this country. We have forty eight

357
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 6: percent of the people on the other side of football.

358
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 6: They're not our enemies. They're made in the image of God.

359
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 6: So we've got a lot to do, and a lot

360
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 6: of this is mainstream media. And President Trump is going

361
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 6: to come out now and explain the carnage due to

362
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 6: the CIA and the FBI and Department of Homeland Security,

363
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 6: like we've been laying out on the war room, and

364
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 6: the war room has a huge audience. But Trump and

365
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,280
Speaker 6: that bullhorn now to the country, and the press is

366
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 6: going to be captive to his message. And he needs

367
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 6: to lay out with RFK Junior some of the tragedies

368
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 6: of who get shot when they're president of the United

369
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 6: States and why so very serious matters. He needs to

370
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 6: lay down that gauntlet very soon. And the Congress, Mike Johnson,

371
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 6: and the Senate, I hope you don't just talk about

372
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 6: leaders and leadership. I hope you talk about the issues

373
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 6: that we just won on and that the leadership race

374
00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:49,160
Speaker 6: and the Senate talks about those issues. And Mike Johnson

375
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 6: delivers a huge win for the president. They have a package.

376
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 6: We heard from some of the superstars last night. There's

377
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 6: some great stuff coming our way. But those are just

378
00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 6: a few of the ideas. And the other the other

379
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 6: king is President Trump won a majority of white women

380
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 6: and that that, you know, cuts against the grain, and

381
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 6: the left is shrieking and howling because all the name

382
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:15,120
Speaker 6: calling didn't work. We're all good people and in this

383
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 6: country we can do much better. And Trump just reached

384
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 6: out for the first time, black voters, Hispanic round voters, women,

385
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,560
Speaker 6: everyone across a blue collar wages went up for the

386
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,640
Speaker 6: first time under his regime. We need to do it again.

387
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,919
Speaker 6: We can do it again. Let me just say to

388
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,920
Speaker 6: a couple quick things to give some hope here. Right,

389
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 6: even though the macro economy is in trouble, Warren Buffett

390
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 6: is going from one hundred billion cash to three hundred

391
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 6: billion cash in a bull market, right, Schiller, the Nobel Laureate,

392
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 6: the cape, the pe ratio.

393
00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 4: The markets are way overvalued.

394
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 6: That's what I'm talking about when I say there we

395
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 6: need to lay the economic baseline. The stock market is

396
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 6: way overvalued. It's gonna come to its mean. Goldman Sachs

397
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 6: last week said we're going to have one percent real

398
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 6: returns for the next decade. One percent real returns on

399
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 6: the stock market for the next decade.

400
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 4: That's what I want to lay down here.

401
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 6: What President Trump is able to do when he does

402
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 6: all the right things right, when he returns capital from

403
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 6: China and puts that capital back in the hands of

404
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 6: the American worker so they can make a wage again,

405
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 6: When we deport the illegals and the criminals and get

406
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 6: rid of the fentanyl, and he goes down to the

407
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 6: Mexicans and says, you're cleaning up this border and all

408
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 6: your drug cartels are going bye bye. Zelenski's already talking peace.

409
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:38,840
Speaker 6: He's going to do all the right things.

410
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 4: Even if he.

411
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,679
Speaker 6: Does all that that the economic baseline is what it

412
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 6: is because we have had the worst economic policy for

413
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 6: the past twenty years imaginable. And so that's the way

414
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 6: I'm seeing it right now, and the American people. The

415
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 6: good news, the hope is when you're raising your kids,

416
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 6: your kids can still it will be utter success stories

417
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 6: right with God, with faith behind them. If they choose

418
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 6: the right courses to study, they learned the right materials

419
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 6: in college and university.

420
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 4: I'm at Liberty University.

421
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 6: I tried not to get too political prior, but proud

422
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,239
Speaker 6: to be there teaching the best young kids imaginable on

423
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 6: the planet. There's hope because they can make it happen.

424
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 6: And if they all do their part and study and

425
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,440
Speaker 6: work hard and have that work ethic, this country will

426
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 6: return to its original status. And I'll just close on

427
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 6: one footnote which some people may not know. Back in

428
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 6: seventeen seventy six, so when this country's going economic growth

429
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 6: had just started. Globally, prior to seventeen hundred, everyone on

430
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 6: the planet made about one thousand dollars a year. Everybody

431
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 6: on the planet made one thousand dollars a year. Then

432
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 6: modern economic growth started up in all Protestant countries under

433
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 6: Adam Smith. At first the Catholics copied that cookbook, but

434
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 6: the Shaker is in Bradford, DeLong Backs is all up

435
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,920
Speaker 6: in high end economic papers. The Judeo Christian tradition is

436
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 6: responsible for that economic growth. We just had two Nobel

437
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 6: Laureates win a Nobel Prize for the shocking inclusion.

438
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but hang on it. It was because of

439
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:22,960
Speaker 1: human because divine providence work through the Judeo Christian West

440
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: and particularly places like Scotland. Right, it's called the Industrial Revolution,

441
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: the invention of the steam engine. You can go through

442
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: human history and it's basically flat, no growth from in

443
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred. It was barely any different than one thousand BC. Right,

444
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: and then you get you get the Judeo Christian West

445
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: with science and then technology, and then you get the

446
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 1: steam engine and then you explode. That is what gave

447
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: us all these opportunities, right yep.

448
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 4: And to call out the Catholics, I get short shripped

449
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 4: on it. The dark Ages were not so dark.

450
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 6: Go look up Rodney Stark for a complete modern revisionist

451
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 6: story on that.

452
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 4: The target amongst the science that emerged out of that.

453
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: Period the Irish. The Irish. The Irish saved the West?

454
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,920
Speaker 1: Was it Linda's thorn? Okay? Short commercial break, As Dave

455
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: brad just told you, Maybe now it's time at birchgold

456
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: dot com. Do you guys go check that at the

457
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: end of the dollar empire? No, Rachel Matta, We're not

458
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,760
Speaker 1: trying to destroy the dollar. We're actually trying to save it.

459
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,920
Speaker 1: Maybe you can go check it out. Of course President

460
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: Trump are talking about cryptocurrencies and other currencies. But find

461
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: out what Dave Bread is talking about. Why is this

462
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 1: dock market at all time high and gold near an

463
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 1: all time high. Those are not supposed to move like that.

464
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: The smart money is telling you something. Talk to Philip

465
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 1: Patrick and the team. Get smart. You got access to it.

466
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: If you don't use it, then you got yourself to

467
00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: blame the move on gold. Since we've done this, I

468
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: don't know one per but talk to the pros. Don't

469
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 1: take it from us. Short commercial break. Bratton Bannon in

470
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: the war room. Back in a moment, here's your host.

471
00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: Even gay bad.

472
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 7: American voters actively chose him over her. Women all over

473
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 7: this country know what it feels like to be the

474
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 7: far more qualified woman who loses the job to mediocre

475
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 7: or underqualified men.

476
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 4: Black women doubly so.

477
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 7: And people are rightfully depressed and scared. The Republican Party

478
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 7: has made it clear they're not mad at the whole

479
00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 7: Nazi thing. They actually find some of the ideas mass

480
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 7: deportation and tournament camps, white Christian nationalism to be kind

481
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 7: of okay, and autocracy definitely feels imminent. This era is

482
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 7: especially frightening if you're a woman, or black, or gay,

483
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 7: or by or trans, or in an immigrant or in

484
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 7: a mixed status family, and that danger is not in

485
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:54,880
Speaker 7: your head.

486
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: And even in a normal time, when an.

487
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 7: Election goes sideways, it is tempting to feel kind of

488
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 7: dumb for having ever believed that the change you dreamed.

489
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 4: Of was possible at all.

490
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,560
Speaker 7: I mean, who were we to believe that America would

491
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 7: ever elect a woman, let alone a black and Asian

492
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 7: woman as it's president. I mean, sure, Mexico just did it,

493
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 7: but not us.

494
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 4: We're America. We don't do these things.

495
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 7: Also, Latino men who, despite the utter disrespect shown by Trump,

496
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 7: and his promised to deport some of your mixed class,

497
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 7: mixed status families, most of them voted in a fifty

498
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 7: five percent majority to make the deportations happen. Y'all voted

499
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 7: with Stephen Miller and David Duke and against your own

500
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 7: sisters and chose Kamala who chose Kamala Harris with sixty percent.

501
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 8: Of their votes.

502
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 7: So you own everything that happens to your mixed status

503
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 7: families and to your wives, sisters, and of wells from

504
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 7: here on in, however, we only have so much time

505
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 7: for blame.

506
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 4: We now need to make a plan. We were and

507
00:28:59,560 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 4: I have to.

508
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 8: You know, people are really terrified for my grandmother who

509
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 8: did not sleep on election night, eighty seven year old

510
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 8: naturalized American citizen from the Philippines and crying calling me

511
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 8: asking me what was going to happen to students. I'm

512
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 8: a trustee of the California State University System. Right, we

513
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 8: have ten thousand, estimated ten thousand undocumented students in our system.

514
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,720
Speaker 8: To undocumented people that I've known now for the past

515
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 8: thirteen years of starting the Fine American the fear is.

516
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 1: More than palpable, right, And I think the question now

517
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 1: really is.

518
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 8: And you know I was texting you today I heard

519
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 8: from my choir teacher, missus Denny, who I've known since

520
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 8: I was a kid. She literally texted me, how do

521
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 8: I protect my students?

522
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: Now we'll say what do I do?

523
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 8: And I wanted to make sure I say that because

524
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 8: I can only imagine how many teachers, employers, co workers,

525
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 8: neighbors who are neighbors to undocumented immigrants all across the country.

526
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 8: That conversation is like, how are you going to protect

527
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 8: your people?

528
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: Right?

529
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 8: Because minu and documented immigrants, we did not vote because

530
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 8: we cannot vote. No matter how many lies elon musk

531
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 8: and the truck, we cannot vote. I've never voted, been

532
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 8: here thirty one years, So we were on the menu

533
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 8: in this election, but we couldn't order. And now the

534
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 8: reality is our fate and our destiny is tied to

535
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 8: what kind of risk American citizens, from teachers to co workers,

536
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 8: to employers to church people, what kind of risk are you?

537
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: You see that you see the mentality we didn't even

538
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: get a chance to vote, No, because you're not a

539
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 1: citizen of this country. The American First Movement and the

540
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: reason these new these new folks came on the black

541
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: and Hispanic men, black and Hispanic families is because they

542
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: would like a deal that American citizens come first, just

543
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: basic since they got to pay the tax, they got

544
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 1: to fight the wars. They build civic society, you know

545
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:08,479
Speaker 1: Edmund Burke's civic society. We're not an economy with the country.

546
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,719
Speaker 1: Where a civic society where a country that has an

547
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 1: economic And we've got to get more capitalistic, and I

548
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: mean real capitalistic, where we have everybody in the country

549
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: is a capitalist. What I mean by capitalist means you

550
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 1: own a little piece of the action, right, You've got

551
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:28,560
Speaker 1: to own a piece of the action. And here this

552
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 1: is going to be at the point of attack. So

553
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: the first all of the transition, what is a transition?

554
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 1: A transition? You basically have eighty days, about eighty days

555
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: to about eighty days eighty some days to put together

556
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 1: an entire government. What do I mean by that? Let's

557
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: go back so you understand some basic architectonics. The federal

558
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: government right now is essentially a seven trillion dollar a

559
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: year cash money going through the system, but it's massively

560
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: bigger than that with the assets. The Department of Interior

561
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 1: owns half of the West government land. The assets side

562
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: of the balance sheet is massive. Right. Then you have

563
00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: an income statement. You have you know, we raise five tradeing,

564
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: we spend seven training, So you got basically a train

565
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: and a half and two trading dollar gap that goes

566
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: to debt. That debt has to be financed. Inside the

567
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: apparatus itself. You have about two let's say two and

568
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: a half million, two and a half million civilians. You

569
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: have about two million or so military. Those are directly

570
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,640
Speaker 1: on the payroll. So you have four four and a

571
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: half five million let's say, folks directly in payroll. But then,

572
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,760
Speaker 1: and this is how the military got off of trying

573
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: to get guys off, men and women off because they

574
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: don't want to pay. They don't want to pay the retirement,

575
00:32:58,360 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: they don't want to pay the benefits they can't take,

576
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: or the healthcare. We have about eighteen million contractors. Now

577
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,880
Speaker 1: half of those contractors are the SEI got the guys.

578
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: They clean the buildings, maintain the buildings, keep all those up,

579
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: and do other service related things. You know, essentially nine million,

580
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: half of them are in some sort of contractual position.

581
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 1: And I am told let's say four million of those

582
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: or five million are actually at kind of an executive level.

583
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,920
Speaker 1: This is all very a little bit of MorphOS because

584
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: they don't want you to actually know the number. So

585
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: essentially it kind of makes sense.

586
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 6: So we have.

587
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 1: About four or five million employees either military or civilian, right,

588
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: and you have about another four or five million contractors.

589
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: So let's say, and I'm just round these are around numbers.

590
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 1: Let's say you have eight to ten million folks billets

591
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: that run what we call the government and every aspect

592
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: of it. And this thing is vast. The current administration,

593
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: whether it's Obama or whether it's Bush, or whether it's

594
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: Biden or Trump one or Trump two, you have four

595
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:17,400
Speaker 1: thousand people. Now you've got committees and commissions, but basically

596
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: four thousand people. Three thousand of those do not have

597
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: to be confirmed by the Senate. They literally are at

598
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: the working level, that level beyond either cabinet secretars or

599
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: just below cabinet secretors or the head of the bureau,

600
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,720
Speaker 1: prison of the deputy, and just below that the assue.

601
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 1: These are the people that kind of you come in

602
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:40,399
Speaker 1: and you manage part of that eight or ten million, right,

603
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: that are doing stuff every day. And you come in

604
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: and you have departments, so you have three thousand, the

605
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 1: process of what we call transition and what's happening down

606
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,280
Speaker 1: there now, and hey, in some of the knife fights

607
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: right behind the scenes are staffing out. Those three thousand,

608
00:34:56,040 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: of which approximately I don't know, one hundred, the NSC

609
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: was one hundred, let's say three or four hundred of

610
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 1: those are associated somehow with the White House of the

611
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 1: White House staff, and you go see the chief of Staff,

612
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,320
Speaker 1: but the entire executive office bulla has got tons. So

613
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:18,879
Speaker 1: the White House has the National Security Councils. I guess

614
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,879
Speaker 1: we count ob age. It gets a little come against

615
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 1: three thousand, but it's basically a couple of hundred what

616
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,400
Speaker 1: we call White House staff. And you see chief of

617
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 1: staff and the major people up on the and you

618
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: have assistance to the president, which are a dozen that

619
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: report or a senior level I was senior counselor chief strategist,

620
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:40,879
Speaker 1: and assistant to the president. Those are the highest level.

621
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:44,520
Speaker 1: They're twelve of them that basically report directly to the

622
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,720

625
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 1: and that's that's when he sees every day and works

626

00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,800
Speaker 1: You're a defense boom. You're an intelligence here, you're over commerce,

639
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:36,000
Speaker 1: your trade, your Treasury, and the big power departments. Let's

640
00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: talk about the power departments. The Treasury Department, the Attorney General, DOJ.

641
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:47,400
Speaker 1: You've got the Pentagon, right, the Pentagon. You've got the

642
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: State Department, and you have DHS. Those are the power departments.

643
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,400
Speaker 1: Then you've got Commerce and Labor and Interior. They're all

644
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: very important, don't get me wrong. But you've got the

645
00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 1: ones that big move the big muscles. Now we then

646
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: have another thousand, remember four thousand, three thousand and go

647
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: and they have to get Look, you have to do

648
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 1: due diligence, you have to get your security clearances. Right,

649
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: we're appropriate, and that's all moved the whole there's teams

650
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:19,040
Speaker 1: working this, and you have what's called landing teams, and

651
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,800
Speaker 1: then you have a beachhead team, and then you have

652
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: the go team. A landing team will be selective of this.

653
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 1: You know, you got Lutnick and you got mcmahonn a

654
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: kind of the coheads. We've got a whole staff of

655
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 1: people working it. The landing team will go over like

656
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 1: next week. The Biden guys will know, hey, we're here

657
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:43,640
Speaker 1: at interior, and a landing team of people come over

658
00:37:43,719 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: in a half a dozen and you start to do

659
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: a transition. Here's where we go, here's what we're doing

660
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 1: right now, here's what we're working on, and that landing

661
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: team will start coordinating and feeding information back to the transition. Now,

662
00:37:57,000 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: the second phase of that, and this will come closer

663
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 1: to the inauguration day, is then a beachhead team, right,

664
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 1: because you get landing beach it may reverse. But what

665
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 1: they are is more people and they come in and

666
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:16,479
Speaker 1: they can actually take the department of it. Because remember

667
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 1: at high noon on the twentieth, you relieve the watch,

668
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: they all go and you got to be there. I

669
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: mean I remember I got briefed by the NSC guys

670
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: because just like as a naval officer, when you go

671
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: to a destroyer in the middle of the night, you know,

672
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,320
Speaker 1: as a young kid, you basically get up out of

673
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 1: your rack. It's the red lights everywhere. You know, it's

674
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: dark and ship and you go get a cup of

675
00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,400
Speaker 1: coffee and you're going to go have the midwatch and

676
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 1: you get up about eleven o'clock or ten thirty. You

677
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 1: get a cup of coffee. You go up to combat

678
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: information combat, and you're sitting there and you just hang around.

679
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: You see what the position of the ships, the message traffic,

680
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,600
Speaker 1: where are we boom boom boom, where the targets And

681
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 1: you sit there, you get acclimated and you know what's

682
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: going on. You sit there with the seat I see officer.

683
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: Then you go open the bridge and you're gonna leave

684
00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:04,879
Speaker 1: the officer of the deck. You got a junior oups

685
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 1: the deck. Your junior house is over there. You're there,

686
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,839
Speaker 1: the chart, you got the quartermasters. Boom boom, boom, You're

687
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 1: going through everything. When you turn at eleven forty five

688
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: or in this case twenty three forty five and you say,

689
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: you know this is Lieutenant J. G. Bennon. You know

690
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 1: I've got the you know I've got the deck in

691
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: the con You slew it legally, they put it down.

692
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: It's on you. You got it. The guy you just

693
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 1: relieve he walks off. You hit something right then, or

694
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: you run over something right then, or somebody falls overboard,

695
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: that's on you. The Washington Post and they're doing the

696
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 1: checkings on me because who's this banning guy? Who was there?

697
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:42,839
Speaker 7: Ever?

698
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,759
Speaker 1: Even in the military, they had a whole article. They

699
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: had gone to the National Archives to get the bridge

700
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: log of the USS Paul at Foster d D nine sixty.

701
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 1: If we're my destroyer, they actually recreated when I was

702
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 1: an officer of the deck in the straits of Herr

703
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:02,759
Speaker 1: move into the Persian Golf where we were doing kind

704
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,640
Speaker 1: of forward air radar support for the hostage crisis. We

705
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: hadn't launched yet. They actually recreated the entire scene on

706
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: the bridge from the log my point before high noon

707
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: on the twentieth of January of twenty twenty five, when

708
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: Donald Trump puts his hand on the king his family's

709
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,919
Speaker 1: King James Bible and raises the right one, a whole

710
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: group of people will relieve the watch, and at one

711
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: minute after that it's Trump's and this is all being

712
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 1: worked and very few or none of the top guys

713
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 1: will be confirmed because that's a whole nother process. So

714
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk transition, what it means, and how you

715
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 1: can help the president of the United States or the

716
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: president elected the United States. I guess he's President's our

717
00:40:53,920 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: president since twenty twenty short perpet your host, Stephen K.

718
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:01,879
Speaker 7: Bam.

719
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: Okay, so this is all about remember controlling the government,

720
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: or when you say control the government, Trump's just got

721
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 1: four thousand people. This is why when you sit in

722
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,960
Speaker 1: the Oval office and you make decisions go through do

723
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 1: you think that the apparatus are going to sit there

724
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,719
Speaker 1: and give you a cheery eye eye and go, okay, fine,

725
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 1: that guy's gonna do No. This is what we talk about.

726
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:29,360
Speaker 1: The administrative state is this massive bureaucracity that the founders

727
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:33,880
Speaker 1: and Framers never envisioned. And that's what the Chevron exemption

728
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: has done so with the courts have said, hey, guess what,

729
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: the bureaucrats don't run themselves. Either the courts that makes

730
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 1: these decisions, or this is empowered Congress and quite frankly,

731
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: even the executive branch that want if you want to

732
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 1: cut the size of the Leviathan Dave Bratt, you gotta

733
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: you gotta like take programs out. You got to deconstruct

734
00:41:57,520 --> 00:42:01,680
Speaker 1: the administrative state. This is why Russ v vote, the

735
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 1: great Russ vote. To me, he's got to be O

736
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: and B.

737
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 7: He was.

738
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 6: He was O and B.

739
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: He was O and B the second O and B

740
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,400
Speaker 1: under Trump. It didnt amaze that this is how good

741
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: Russ vote was. He was Mulvaney's deputy. And I'm not

742
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: a Mulvaney fan, and Molvney's not a bandoned fan. Just

743
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: to make sure it's it's we're on the same I'm

744
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: not taking a cheap shot. But in June of twenty seventeen,

745
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: I set up a mini war room over in the

746
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,720
Speaker 1: EOB and guess what we were doing. We were walking

747
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:38,320
Speaker 1: through the mathematics about shutting down the government on September thirtieth,

748
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: September thirty coming up, I said, hey, we're gonna hit.

749
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,240
Speaker 1: We're never going to get a consensus on a new budget.

750
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,040
Speaker 1: They're fighting us every step of the way. We want

751
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 1: to get to a balanced budget within three hundred bion dollars,

752
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 1: we can do it. They're gonna be a huge fight

753
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:50,960
Speaker 1: by Paul Ryan, remember Paul Ryan speaking of the House

754
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:52,640
Speaker 1: of Mitch McConnell. They're telling us, I'm gonna face is

755
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:56,239
Speaker 1: not going to happen. So at the time, I'm telling Trump,

756
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,320
Speaker 1: let's let's push it. Let's go to the thing, and

757
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 1: Russ votes. The AT O and B w omb comes

758
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,960
Speaker 1: in and has all these float charts, all these waterfalls

759
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 1: that show, hey, we're not going to default. Plenty of

760
00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: cash comes in. You can make all your contractual debt obligations,

761
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: play the interests, pay the face amount. You stroll down.

762
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: Guess what. There may be a couple of three programs

763
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:22,320
Speaker 1: down there that you've got to tap along. But that

764
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 1: is what the staff does and O and B does.

765
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: That's what's helping working at the president every day of

766
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: different alternats and kind of managing the government. At O

767
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: and B and I think you get X amount of

768
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,080
Speaker 1: political pointies. They have a vast they have like a

769
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:38,439
Speaker 1: three thousand They have like a three thousand person, you know, apparatus.

770
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:42,799
Speaker 1: So this is what's happening right now. I talk about

771
00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:46,000
Speaker 1: the knife fight. What people are fighting for are two

772
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,760
Speaker 1: basic things right now, and I say it's a kniefight.

773
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 1: It's always kind of a knife fight. Biting them have

774
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,320
Speaker 1: it because you have different philosophies. And if even on

775
00:43:54,480 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 1: the winners, we are still a coalition of MAGA and

776
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: hardcore MAGA and ultra MAGA. But you still have rhinos,

777
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:07,439
Speaker 1: you still have establishment and look, to be brutally frank

778
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 1: about it, the people that wrote checks and particularly towards

779
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: the end, Hey, they all have economic interest in making

780
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 1: sure that their needs are provided. And it's a very

781
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: imperfect world. I'd love to be I'd love to be

782
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 1: Pollyanna here and tell you that we can get all Magan.

783
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 1: This is not going to happen.

784
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 7: Now.

785
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 1: What you have to do is pick inside the apparatus

786
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 1: those nodes of real power, of which I'm not going

787
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: to mention because we're gonna lose nose some of these guys.

788
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: But I think from President Trump's perspective, and here's a

789
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: guy that's been through it for four fricking years. Think

790
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 1: of the I tell people the tension. Like last Nime,

791
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,600
Speaker 1: I gave that speech. That's a little five hundred speech thing,

792
00:44:49,640 --> 00:44:52,640
Speaker 1: but you get so jactive and adrenaline. He's doing it

793
00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 1: for hours, four and five times a day at seventy

794
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: eight years old. You give it up. Who can do that?

795
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: That's sooner superhuman? Okay, And to get on the plane

796
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: and go do it again and be so clear and

797
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:08,879
Speaker 1: so funny at the others, Hey, I spent four months

798
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 1: in a federal prison just for a misdemeanor. This guy's

799
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,400
Speaker 1: got ninety two felonies court. He was in court for

800
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 1: almost a year, dragged into court and ripped apart in

801
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 1: front of national TV in the media. Remember they're all

802
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: out there and they're all giddy and dancing around and

803
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 1: skipping around. The American people came back with the verdict.

804
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:30,040
Speaker 1: They're the jury and they said, screw you, we want

805
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: this guy. But just the tension and all that. So

806
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:37,080
Speaker 1: President Trump, who has super energy, clearly, I mean most

807
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: guys say a couple of weeks off, he's still done

808
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: to marlogo, taking the meetings. But I think what he

809
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: wants is just peace in his camp and I think

810
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,879
Speaker 1: he deserves that. Now we're going to fight as hard

811
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: as possible, but I think there has to be approachman

812
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: with the people that are working on it. Everybody's got

813
00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,320
Speaker 1: the overall interests of the country in their mind and

814
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 1: President Trump in their mind as they see it, or

815
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: as Lincoln said, as God gives you the right to

816
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: see it right the second inaugural address. Yep. So this

817
00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 1: is and the staff is everything in the transitions everything

818
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,200
Speaker 1: right now. Of course, you get the leadership in the House,

819
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: you have the leadership in the Senate. But because you're

820
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:26,120
Speaker 1: part of the show and been part of the show

821
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,480
