1 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts. 2 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 2: Now, Iowa has ten thousand federal workers. Which federal jobs 3 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 2: do you think are redundant? Is it the staff providing 4 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 2: care to veterans at the VA facilities in Des Moines 5 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 2: and Iowa City, The USDA expert supporting your state's farmers, 6 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 2: or the Social Security staff ensuring payments reach seniors. Let's 7 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 2: be clear about what's happening here. This isn't about right 8 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: sizing the federal government. It's about gutting it, and it's 9 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 2: about weakening our government's ability to serve the American people. 10 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 3: You want shorter wait times for Social Security. 11 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 2: Faster disaster responses, safer food and medicine, then why attack 12 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 2: the very workers who make it happen. The House Democrats 13 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 2: are fighting to protect and modernize the federal workforce, hire 14 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 2: and retain talent, and give federal workers the resources they 15 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 2: need to serve the American people. That's what we are doing. 16 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: And with that, mister Chairman, I thank you, and I yield. 17 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 4: Back chair recognized mister Palmer from Alabama, thank miss Chairman, 18 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 4: and thank the witnesses for being here. And I want 19 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 4: to get to a more constructive dialogue. First of all 20 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 4: in regard to DOGE. As I've pointed out to some 21 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 4: of my colleagues, this is not the first time that 22 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 4: the federal government has engaged in an effort like this. 23 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 4: One time, in particular, it was during the Clint administration. 24 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 4: It was called the National Partnership for Reinventing Government and 25 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 4: it was led by Al Gore. I ran a think 26 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 4: tank of Time, was invited to come to Washington to 27 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 4: meet with some of the folks working on this. But 28 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 4: after seven years of this effort, they reduced the civilian 29 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 4: employee population by over four hundred and twenty six thousand. 30 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 4: They close two hundred and fifty federal offices. They reduced 31 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 4: the Federal Registry by seven hundred thousand pages and about 32 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 4: sixteen thousand pages of regulations. And I understand Governor rentals 33 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:19,119 Speaker 4: that Iowa has launched a reorganization effort as the objective 34 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 4: there to make government more efficient, more effective, and more 35 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 4: responsive to the people of Iowa. 36 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 5: More efficient, more effective, more responsive, more accountable. It's brought 37 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,920 Speaker 5: transparency to the process. We're better at what we're doing. 38 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 5: I would say that, you know, the employees appreciate the 39 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 5: environment that we're working in today. They appreciate the culture 40 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 5: of innovation that we're creating in the state, and they 41 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 5: love being a part of it. 42 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: Did you bring it in any outside experts? As the 43 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 4: client administration did and that effort for reinventing government back 44 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 4: in the nineties, I. 45 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 5: Brought in one consultant to help really do the comparisons 46 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 5: in other states, so we could see where we were 47 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 5: an outliner, where did we align, what had we maybe missed? 48 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 5: So we used the sultant from that perspective and just 49 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 5: to help us with some of the administration, but otherwise 50 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 5: we did it all internally. 51 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 4: When I worked for a couple of international engineering companies, 52 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 4: and one of the companies I worked for went through 53 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 4: a process like this, and they brought in outside consultants 54 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 4: because people on outside can see things those of us 55 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 4: on the inside miss, So it's important that you bring 56 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 4: in really the best that you that you can in 57 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 4: that regard, I really think that we're in another reinventing 58 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 4: government phase, and in particular with education. Uh there's a 59 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 4: big debate right now going on about the number of 60 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 4: H one b VSAs that we need to have because 61 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 4: we're having to import so many technically trained workers. I 62 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 4: don't know if Iwa is experiencing some of this, but 63 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 4: you probably have some folks who are educated overseas that 64 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 4: are now working in engineering technically trained jobs. 65 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: Would that be correct? 66 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 6: Yes. 67 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 4: I think the fact that we're having mister Tairman to 68 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 4: bring so many people in who are engineers and scientists 69 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 4: is an indictment of the current education system. We're not 70 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 4: able to produce the number of of technically trained people 71 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 4: that we need to be competitive in our economy, but 72 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 4: also in regard to our national security, because we're in 73 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 4: an arms race an artificial intelligence with China, and we're 74 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 4: going to have to have a technically trained work force. 75 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 4: So one of the things that I've suggested in this 76 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 4: effort in regard to the Department of Education is that 77 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 4: we not completely dismantle it governor rentals, but maybe reimagine 78 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 4: it as a Department of Workforce Development and block grant 79 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 4: the money to the States with a heavy emphasis on STEM. 80 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 4: Would you like to respond to that. 81 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 5: I would be very much in favor of that. In fact, 82 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 5: we put a proposal together that we'll be submitting to 83 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 5: the Department of Education. It gives states the flexibility. We 84 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 5: already have a waiver process in place that we could 85 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 5: utilize until they could actually get some of that realignment done. 86 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 5: But like I said, hold us accountable, We'll meet those 87 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,840 Speaker 5: expectations and we can do it at lower cost. 88 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 4: We're going through, I think an historic phase. 89 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: Every day is a battle for your mind. 90 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 7: Raging information coming from every angle, but the will to deceive. 91 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: I fear not. You found the place for. 92 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 7: Truth, the voice of a generation that still has the 93 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 7: will to believe in the greatest country in the history 94 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 7: of the world. This is the Charlie Kirk Show. 95 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: Buck a lot, here we go. 96 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 8: Okay, everybody, Radio stations across the country honored to be 97 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 8: with you. 98 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: As always. 99 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 8: You can email me Freedom at Charliekirk dot com. There 100 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 8: is a lot to cover today. Front page of the 101 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 8: Wall Street Journal. Trump urges US takeover of Gaza. Front 102 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 8: page of the New York Times. Trump proposing takeover of 103 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 8: Gaza as a US territory. 104 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: Where is Gaza? 105 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 8: Most Americans cannot tell you, So let's first just educate 106 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 8: all of you and catch you up the speed on 107 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 8: where in the world is Gaza. Well, Gaza is a 108 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 8: very intro sting piece of the Middle East. Its history 109 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 8: dates back all the way to fifth fifteenth century BCE. 110 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 8: It was an important city in ancient Egypt, and even 111 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 8: the Philistines seems that there's always been conflict around this 112 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 8: specific sliver. Let's show the map now. When you talk 113 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 8: about Israel, Israel is about the side of New Jersey. 114 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 8: Israel as it is in this particular map is the turquoise. 115 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: On the map. 116 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,919 Speaker 8: The more brown color as I see it presented, is 117 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 8: what would be called the Palestinian Authority. This is a 118 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 8: very important point the Palestinian Authority. But usually here is 119 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 8: the West Bank, meaning it's west of the Jordan River, 120 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 8: is Judea and Samaria. There you'll have Hebron, there, you 121 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 8: have novelists. There you have the major metropolitan centers of 122 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 8: the Palestinian Authority. What most people don't understand, though, is 123 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 8: that there is a separate area of Arab Palestinian Authority 124 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:02,719 Speaker 8: control which is not contiguous. It is discontiguous, and that 125 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 8: is the Gaza Strip. You can see the Gaza Strip 126 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 8: right there, which is positioned near the southwest corner of 127 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 8: the state of Israel. The Gaza Strip is gorgeous, it's beautiful, 128 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 8: It's right on the Mediterranean, has rolling hills, vineyards orchards. 129 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 8: It is legitimately could be the new Bay Route tool 130 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 8: when Beyrout was actually very nice. It could be a 131 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 8: Hong Kong, it could be a Singapore, it could be 132 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 8: a beautiful beacon. But there's been a lot of conflict 133 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 8: over Gaza throughout the years. So Gaza we'll just kind 134 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 8: of fast forward to more modern time. Of course, we 135 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 8: had the creation of the State of Israel in the 136 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 8: nineteen forties, and as the creation of State of Israel happened, 137 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 8: there was a lot of conflict of well, who's actually 138 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 8: going to control Gaza. Interestingly, Gaza was under Egyptian control 139 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 8: from nineteen forty eight to nineteen sixty seven. It was 140 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 8: not formally annexed by Egypt, but Palestinian national identity whatever 141 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 8: that is, however you want to explain, it. 142 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 1: Started to take shape. 143 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 8: Now in nineteen sixty seven, there was something called the 144 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 8: Six Day War, very famous six Day War, where Israel 145 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 8: captured the Gaza strip and basically controlled it for the 146 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 8: next forty years. From there, you started to see a 147 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 8: lot of people in Gaza that were Arab Palestinian Muslim 148 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 8: start to get a little bit discontent. There was a 149 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 8: lot of resentment. There was something from nineteen eighty seven 150 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 8: to nineteen ninety three which was called the First Intifada. 151 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 8: It was an uprising against Israeli occupation that began in Gaza, 152 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 8: marking a key moment in what they would call the 153 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 8: struggle for self determination. There was also the Oslo Accords 154 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 8: that were offered by Bill Clinton, signed in the early 155 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 8: nineteen nineties and established the Palestinian Authority and set the 156 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 8: framework for Palestinian self rule. Now understand, the people of 157 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 8: Gaza that called themselves Palestinians, They've always wanted to govern themselves. 158 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 8: We don't want to be under Israeli rule. We don't 159 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 8: want to be under Israeli rule. 160 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: Now. 161 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 8: Hama started to rise up in the late nineteen eighties 162 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 8: as a radical Islamic resistance movement. As it started to 163 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 8: percolate and manifest, more and more radical anti Semitic, anti 164 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 8: Jewish jew hatred rhetoric started to metastasize in the Gaza strip. 165 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: Then in two thousand and. 166 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 8: Five, the big decision was made, and yes, please keep 167 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 8: that map up on screen. In two thousand and five, 168 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 8: Israel made the decision to unilaterally withdraw from Gaza. Dismantling 169 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 8: settlements and evacuating military personnel. Basically, Israel said, forget it, 170 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 8: We're done. This is too much headache, too much consternation. 171 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 8: It's nothing but problems for us. If you guys really 172 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 8: want to govern yourselves. 173 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: Have at it. 174 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 8: Gaza, have at it. Hamas have at a Palestinian authority. 175 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 8: A couple of years later, in two thousand and seven, 176 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 8: following violent clashes between Hamas and Fata, Hamas took complete 177 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 8: control of the Gaza Strip, further deepening the political division 178 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 8: between Gaza and the West Bank. Now they've always wanted 179 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 8: self determination, and that's what they got, But they really 180 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,119 Speaker 8: also wanted more than that. They didn't just want self determination. 181 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 8: They wanted free stuff, they wanted aid. They also wanted 182 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 8: Israel not to exist. Now, let me reiterate, Gaza could 183 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 8: be a lovely place. The problem is the people who 184 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 8: rule it. Israel in the past time also captured the 185 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 8: entire Sinai. What's notable is they gave back the Sinai 186 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 8: but not Gaza. In the peace deal, the whole idea 187 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 8: was land for peace. We're going to get you land 188 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 8: and we're going to get peace. But land for peace 189 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 8: has never worked Hamas wants to destroy Israel, and the 190 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 8: most radical elements of Islamic fundamentalism took control the Gaza Strip. Now, 191 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 8: as I keep that map up on screen for just 192 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 8: one more second, all of the activity on October seventh 193 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 8: originated from the Gaza Strip, not from the West Bank. 194 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 8: The Gaza Strip was the launching off point. The Gaza 195 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 8: Strip controlled by Hamas is where they went to the 196 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 8: rave concert, They went into the kibbutz's, they went into 197 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 8: the nurseries, they went into the little schools, they went 198 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 8: into the synagogues. It was the launching off point in 199 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 8: the Gaza Strip, not in the West Bank. So that 200 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 8: fast forward now to today where it's a major mess. 201 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 8: When Israel has now done their response to the horrific, 202 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 8: unspeakable mini holocaust on October seventh, it has all been 203 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 8: in the Gaza Strip. It has been focused on the 204 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 8: Gaza Strip and the untold military story, which honestly, the 205 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 8: media has had a lot to cover the last year 206 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 8: and a half. Is Yes, the IDF has been largely successful, 207 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,079 Speaker 8: but not nearly as much as they would have liked. 208 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 8: And this is a pattern that America experienced in Vietnam 209 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 8: and America experience in Afghanistan and America experienced in Iraq, 210 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:29,000 Speaker 8: with a small, determined fighting force in their home neighborhoods 211 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 8: and in their homeland can be very difficult to defeat. 212 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 8: They get stronger the more you repress them. They get 213 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 8: more of a fighting spirit. The snipers and the dodge 214 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 8: and duck type strategy on the streets of Gaza have 215 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 8: been very difficult for the IDF to completely eliminate and 216 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 8: wipe out Hamas. They've done a pretty good job, but 217 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 8: Hamas has yet to be totally and completely defeated. Now, 218 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 8: just a reminder, polled in December of twenty twenty three, 219 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 8: Palestinians in Gaza overwhelmingly support what happened on October seventh. 220 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 8: Now seventy two percent of respondent said they believed Commas's 221 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 8: decision to launch the cross border rampage in southern Israel 222 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 8: was correct. Now, let's be honest. How do you conduct 223 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 8: a poll in the midst of a war zone. So 224 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 8: let me actually give you a piece of data. That 225 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 8: is that I think even more compelling that the people 226 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 8: who did October seventh the terrible savages. When they returned 227 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 8: to Gaza, they were celebrated as heroes. That is more 228 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 8: persuasive to me that there was parties in the streets 229 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 8: of the people that returned from the horrific acts on 230 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 8: October seventh, and they came to the streets of Gaza. 231 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 8: That's more persuasive than some poll that is being done. 232 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 8: I mean, they don't even have phones in Gaza. I 233 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 8: don't know what they have or they don't have. That 234 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 8: is actually a much stronger data point. So this is 235 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 8: a big problem for Israel. The question is this a 236 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 8: big problem for the United States? Is there a problem 237 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 8: that we want to inherit? Is this a problem that 238 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 8: we should have to supervise? Is this a problem that 239 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 8: we should have to babysit and nanny because the Egyptians 240 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 8: had controlled it and they said no way. Israel had 241 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 8: controlled it and they said no way. And it's kind 242 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 8: of in this murky middle ground, and those of us 243 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 8: that are America first, it is a very serious question 244 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 8: of how should we approach the Gazahama situation. Well, we're 245 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 8: going to find out what President Trump means by own Gaza. 246 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 8: Does he mean own it like he owns Mara a Lago, 247 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 8: or does he mean that we're going to own the 248 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 8: activity and be responsible for managing a broker deal. Is 249 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 8: it a literal own or a metaphorical own? Is this 250 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 8: the art of the deal. We don't know. What we 251 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 8: do know is some red lines of what we will 252 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 8: not tolerate, and we're going to go through that in 253 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 8: the next segment.

Of other things I do of this, 306 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 8: I do not if I were to infer what led 307 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 8: to this clip we're about to play, it was obviously 308 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 8: his meeting and press conference with Prime Minister bb Netanyahu. 309 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 8: Is that there was likely a dialogue that was occurring 310 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 8: of all the people that don't want to assume control 311 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 8: of Gaza, the Egyptians don't want it the Jordanians don't 312 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 8: want it, Israel doesn't want it, and I could see 313 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 8: a situation where President Trump says, oh, forget. 314 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: It, We'll just take it over. 315 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 8: I could see a moment where President Trump says, you 316 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 8: guys are all you don't want to take control of it. 317 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 8: We're going to be the alpha males and we're just 318 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 8: gonna come in. So let's play this piece of tape here. 319 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 8: And it is really shaking the matrix. I have received 320 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 8: hundreds of messages about this, people asking, asking, And that's 321 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 8: what's so nice about having this program. I don't have 322 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 8: to respile on text messages. I say, just watch the show. 323 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 8: Just watch the show. It's good for ratings. Just watch 324 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 8: the show if you want to hear my thoughts. This 325 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 8: is one of the moments that shook everything up that 326 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 8: led to these headlines. 327 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: Front page above the fold. 328 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,239 Speaker 8: Trump urges US takeover of Gaza play Cup one twenty two. 329 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 9: The US will take over the Gaza strip, and we 330 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 9: will do a job with it too. We'll own it 331 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 9: and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded 332 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 9: bombs and other weapons on the site. Level the site, 333 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 9: and get rid of the destroyed buildings, level it out, 334 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 9: create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of 335 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 9: jobs and housing for the people of the area. 336 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 10: Go a real job to something different. Just can't go back. 337 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 9: If you go back, it's going to end up the 338 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 9: same way it has for one hundred years. 339 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 8: Okay, let's take a step back here now. Is this 340 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 8: the art of the deals is to get more moderate 341 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 8: Arab countries to step up? Is this cutting Israel in line? 342 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 8: We don't know. But President Trump was reading prepared remarks there. 343 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 8: This was not off the cuff. 344 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: It's very important. 345 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 8: This is not President Trumps answering a question from a reporter. 346 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 8: He was reading prepared remarks. So it begs that there's 347 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 8: some sort of chess game going on here. But let's 348 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 8: kind of go through our red lines without knowing the 349 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 8: exact maneuvers and counter moves that are happening. 350 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 1: Let's go through some red lines. 351 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 8: Number one, no circumstances are we going to allow refugees 352 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,160 Speaker 8: from Gaza to come into the United States of America. 353 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 8: I can't imagine that is even on the table. I 354 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 8: don't think President Trump would allow that. But it needs 355 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 8: to be said, needs to be emphasized. While we're doing 356 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 8: the largest deportation effort in American history, which is going 357 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 8: very well. 358 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: We got Gitmo L. 359 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 8: Salvador, We've got planes going all over the place. We're 360 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 8: not going to go let in a bunch of elon 361 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 8: Omars that are going to be singing alu akapar on 362 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 8: college campuses, burning American flags and waving Palestinian propaganda in 363 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 8: the phases. 364 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: Of American students. We're not gonna put up with that. 365 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: So the answer is zero, not going to happen. Zero. 366 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 8: And number two is that we're not going to have 367 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 8: any US troops fighting in Gaza. That would be a 368 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 8: detrimental mistake, that would be catastrophic. Now, when President Trump 369 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 8: says we're going to own it, does that mean that 370 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 8: he we're going to own the situation. We're going to 371 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,280 Speaker 8: diplomatically handhold it, We're going to bring stakeholders together. I'm 372 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,239 Speaker 8: not sure, but we are not going to have a 373 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 8: single up. We're going to speak out against that with 374 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 8: every fiber r being. We are not going to get 375 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 8: involved another Iraq, another Afghanistan. By the way, to the 376 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 8: best of my knowledge, Israel has never even asked for 377 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 8: US troops. All they want is the ability and the 378 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 8: green light to be able to wipe out Hamas. But 379 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 8: I do think we have to also proceed with some 380 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 8: caution here on this program. 381 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,200 Speaker 1: We have been outspoken critics of nation building. 382 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 8: I don't think that's what President Trump is talking about here, 383 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 8: but I think it's within the same. 384 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: Potential topic here that nation building. 385 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 8: One of the things that we've been most critical of 386 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 8: in Iraq and Afghanistan and Libya and Syria and Ukraine. 387 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 8: This is likely President Trump trying to create more leverage 388 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 8: the same way he did with Canada, saying he did 389 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 8: with Columbia, same way he did with Mexico. So I 390 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 8: trust Trump one hundred percent to navigate this. He is 391 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 8: the master and in him I trust on this. The 392 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 8: same time, though, we need to make sure that we 393 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 8: articulate the principles that built his entire presidency and built 394 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 8: the entire movement. The occupation of Gaza is not worth 395 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 8: the life of a single marine from Oklahoma, period. 396 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: It's not worth it. That is not America's role. 397 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 8: To go put our most prized possession, our eighteen, nineteen 398 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,439 Speaker 8: and twenty year old young men on the front lines, 399 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,479 Speaker 8: to go fight in a region that has been described 400 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 8: as sand and death. The IDEF can handle that, and 401 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 8: we should give them a green light to go finish 402 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 8: the job. That I completely support. But limitations on American 403 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 8: foreign policy intervention is something that has been wide spread approval. 404 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 8: The President believes us, and so this situation in front 405 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 8: of US is probably going to be developing in real time. 406 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 8: But the Jordanians and the Egyptians have to step up. 407 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 8: If all of a sudden we're going to say, hey, 408 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 8: get out of Gaza, Well, the Jordanians don't want them, 409 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 8: the Egyptians don't want them. But I think this definitely 410 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 8: creates a lot of momentum to force Arab neighbors to 411 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 8: take Palastinians.

Go real, job, do something different. 424 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 9: Just can't go back.

Cash Betel, 505 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 13: we'll probably vote on him and Judiciary next week, so 506 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 13: he'll be a few days behind that. But having said that, 507 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 13: I think they're all in really good shape, and I 508 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 13: think it's important. I think it's important to honor, you know, 509 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 13: the trust that voters gave President Trump to pick his 510 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 13: team in this broad coalition now that we have, and 511 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 13: I think his cabinet reflects that broad coalition, and you know, 512 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 13: one of the main reasons they all need to move forward, 513 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 13: and I think they will. One last point on that 514 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 13: we're way ahead. I mean Senator thom deserves some credit here, 515 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 13: way ahead of the timetable that we've seen was Joe 516 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 13: Biden or President Trump's first term, where twelve confirmed by 517 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 13: the end of this week, maybe thirteen. I think it 518 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 13: might end up being it was at six in his 519 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 13: first term. Biden had six, so you'd have to go 520 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 13: back to the Obama era where we were moving as quickly. 521 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 12: So that's a good sign too. 522 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: It's a great sign. 523 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 8: And that's also just mentioned that with maximum Democrat opposition, 524 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 8: every trick in the Parliamentarian handbook. 525 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 1: Can you speak about that? 526 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 8: You got Senator Shatz from Hawaii who's saying is going 527 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,719 Speaker 8: to delay everything over usaid, I mean, it's like every 528 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 8: possible trick. How how has that made it a little 529 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 8: bit more difficult and how do you navigate such delayed 530 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 8: tactics by the Democrats. 531 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 13: Yeah, normally on these confirmations, like basically, you have an 532 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 13: executive calendar in the Senate, you have a legislative calendar 533 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 13: in the Senate, and you have an impeachment calendar in 534 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 13: the Senate. There's only three things that you're doing at 535 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 13: any one time, and you've got to switch back and forth, 536 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 13: which you know takes a little time. But we're staying 537 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 13: on the executive calendar. We're staying on these nominees. They 538 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 13: can force us to go longer, we can only do 539 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 13: one at a time, but we're plowing through what We've 540 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 13: made it clear. 541 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 12: We're going to be here nights, weekends. We're getting this done. 542 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 13: And I think they as much as they're kicking and 543 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 13: screaming about it and are throwing some procedural hurdles, it's 544 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 13: going to happen. And so it's interesting this week, Charlie, 545 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 13: they're really setting this up to be, you know, their 546 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 13: Spartacus moment for rough vote, because they're really zeroing in 547 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 13: on this dose stuff, which I think is it is 548 00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 13: the fight that we want. We should relish this. People 549 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 13: have been clamoring to reign in government. This administrative state 550 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 13: that's out of control. It needs to be dismantled. And 551 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 13: now that the you know permanent, Washington really doesn't want 552 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 13: people to know how this money gets spent. And USA 553 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 13: Idea is at the top of the list of corrupt 554 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 13: organizations that have spent money on DEI programs in Uganda 555 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 13: and you know, sex change operations in South America. 556 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 12: It's an insult to taxpayers. 557 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 13: So this is really shaking up sort of business as 558 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 13: usual in Washington. 559 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 12: They'd like this stuff in the dark. 560 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 13: It's all coming out in the open and underscrut me 561 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 13: and that's a good thing. And they're mad about it, 562 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 13: so they, like I said, they can kick and scream 563 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 13: about it, but we're going to get this done. 564 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, and again it is about making government more efficient 565 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 8: and just so everyone understands, from the twenty nineteen to 566 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 8: twenty twenty twenty fiscal year to today, so in about 567 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 8: four years of fiscal year, our federal budget has nearly doubled, 568 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 8: nearly doubled, And I just hope everyone understands that there 569 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 8: was almost a pre COVID baseline, and the post COVID 570 00:30:58,520 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 8: baseline is so extra. 571 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 1: What is our federal budget? 572 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 8: It's gonna be about six trillion ish, right if you 573 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 8: count this reconciled fiscal year. 574 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: Is that about right? Six trillion ish? 575 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 12: Yeah? 576 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 13: Yes, And I think that's a great, great point. And 577 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 13: one of the things I try to mention is pre COVID, 578 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 13: we were spending about four trillion dollars. Okay, the budget 579 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 13: this year will be hope like Biden wanted to spend 580 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 13: seven trillion. Okay, maybe it's going to be six trillion, right, 581 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 13: So pre COVID twenty nineteen, President Trump's an office four trillion. 582 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 12: Our revenues now, Charlie, are five trillion. Like if we 583 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 12: were just spending when we were spending a few years ago, 584 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 12: we would have a surplus. 585 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 13: But the Democrat they don't, They do not want to 586 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 13: give any of. 587 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 12: That money back. 588 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 13: So we're going to have a real fight on our 589 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 13: hands in this next reconciliation package to sort of rain 590 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 13: this in. And you know, I kind of get tired 591 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 13: of saying, well, it's only a couple of billion dollars, 592 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 13: or the waste is only a few hundred million dollars, 593 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 13: like I still count my money. And in Missouri when 594 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 13: you take if you were to tell somebody that that, like, oh, 595 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,959 Speaker 13: it's only a few hundred million dollars a billion dollars, 596 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 13: they would they'd be pissed, and they should be pissed. 597 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 12: So I think any money we saved, whether it's a. 598 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 13: Dollar or a trillion dollars, we ought to be focused 599 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 13: on it. And I think that for now, that is 600 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 13: where the momentum is and we ought to hold onto that, 601 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 13: and we ought to fight that fight with the Democrats 602 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 13: every single day. 603 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 8: So the I want to dive deeper into the Doge issue, 604 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 8: specifically USAID. Your colleagues are losing it over the USAID situation, 605 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:33,239 Speaker 8: which is one of the most wasteful, grotesque agencies. It's 606 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 8: actually a very good one for President Trump and Elon 607 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 8: Musk to focus on out of the gate, because it's 608 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 8: all about funding silly pet projects externally and not doing 609 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 8: anything internally. Let's play just some of this here. This 610 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 8: is cut. Let's just actually listen to Caroline Levitt list 611 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 8: out some of the waste from USAID. Play cut sixty 612 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 8: four through. 613 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 3: USAID over the past several years. 614 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 14: These are some of the insane priorities that that organization 615 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 14: has been spending money on. One point five million dollars 616 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 14: to advance DEI in Serbia's workplaces, seventy thousand for a 617 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 14: production of a DEI musical in Ireland, forty seven thousand 618 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 14: for a transgender opera in Colombia, thirty two thousand for 619 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 14: a transgender comic book in Peru. I don't know about you, 620 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 14: but as an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars 621 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 14: going towards this crap, and I know the American people 622 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 14: don't either. 623 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 3: And that's exactly what Elon Musk has. 624 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,479 Speaker 14: Been tasked by President Trump to do to get the fraud, 625 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 14: waste and abuse out of our federal government. 626 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 13: Or what. 627 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 8: Senator, this is where our taxpayer dollars are going, and 628 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 8: they're mad that Elon and Doge are putting a stop 629 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 8: to it. 630 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's exactly what's happening. 631 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 13: And I think it's also important to putting context here 632 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 13: that this is sort of this is kind of business as. 633 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 12: Usual in permanent Washington. 634 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 13: It's also part of this decade's long failed foreign policy 635 00:33:57,080 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 13: establishment that is being forced out of Look in the 636 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 13: mirror a little bit like it's not working for the 637 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 13: American taxpayers. As Secretary of Rubio said, the only money 638 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 13: that we should be spending anywhere in the world is 639 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 13: if it advances US interests, our core US interests. Providing 640 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 13: sex change operations and doing this DEI stuff in foreign 641 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 13: countries is lunacy. But it's what happens when you have 642 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 13: these agencies that are totally unaccountable. They have a pot 643 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 13: of money and they get turf and they feel important 644 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 13: and they spend the money, and then they have politicians 645 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 13: that to get to travel those places, and then they 646 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 13: get to feel important when the leaders thank them for that, 647 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 13: Like that's not why I did this, Like it's I mean, 648 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 13: but that is why a lot of politicians in Washington, 649 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 13: you know, they love being greeted at the door and 650 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,240 Speaker 13: thank you, thank you for all this bullshit or whatever 651 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 13: that we're spending money on. So anyway, I think the 652 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 13: reckoning is coming and that's a good thing. 653 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 12: And this is just the first step. 654 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 13: By the way, this is USAAD is like top of 655 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,479 Speaker 13: the list, but it's not the only thing on the list. 656 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 13: And I think that again, this fight is worth having 657 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:07,319 Speaker 13: across the board, Like dismantling the administrative state will do 658 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 13: more to restore the health of this republic than almost 659 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 13: anything else we can do. 660 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 12: Because they're totally unaccountable. You can't vote them. 661 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: That's exactly right, you know what I mean, And. 662 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:16,959 Speaker 12: So like this is this is an important fight. 663 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 8: So let's emphasize that for a second, which is we 664 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 8: live under the appearance that there are co equal branches, 665 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 8: that the first executive branch, the legislative branch, and the 666 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 8: Supreme Court, that there's tension between them. You're speaking about 667 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 8: a fourth branch of government that was never authored by 668 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 8: the founders, the administrative state, and technically that should fall 669 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 8: under the vested authority of the president in Article two. 670 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 8: They don't believe that, and speak about how what is 671 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 8: what we are really barreling towards? We are barreling towards 672 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 8: a constitutional crisis. And I think the Supreme Court will 673 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:02,879 Speaker 8: rule correctly on this of who actually runs the bureaucracy. 674 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 13: Yeah, and I think look, COVID was so informative in 675 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:13,080 Speaker 13: so many different ways. Power doesn't necessarily corrupt, it reveals, 676 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,480 Speaker 13: and what COVID revealed was that there is a class 677 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 13: of people in this country, particularly on the left that 678 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 13: really does you know, the whole trust the experts thing. 679 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 13: This is a fight between we, the people and the experts. 680 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 13: It started with Woodrow Wilson. Not to get too historical 681 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,600 Speaker 13: about this, but like maybe one of the worst presidents, 682 00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 13: if not the worst president, who believed that the experts 683 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,680 Speaker 13: knew better than the people. It's really a fundamental distrust 684 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 13: of our of our republic right that the people actually 685 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 13: get to decide what happens. 686 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:41,879 Speaker 12: And so you're right. 687 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 13: We have a vertical and horizontal separation of powers, whether 688 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,720 Speaker 13: it's federalism or the three branches of government. The founders 689 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 13: envision that to constantly be checking one another so that 690 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 13: no one branch, no one person, ever got too powerful. 691 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 13: Why is that the fundamental goal was to protect individual liberty, 692 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 13: that is, that's the constant insitutional design that we have. 693 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 12: They never envisioned. 694 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 13: A separate branch apart from that that would have immense 695 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 13: power over people's lives and livelihoods. 696 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 12: And you never know who they are. 697 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,200 Speaker 13: Like you don't know their names or never heard of 698 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,760 Speaker 13: thee But they can send a guidance letter and totally 699 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 13: destroy a third generation business, or they can have an 700 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 13: agency like OSHA that was created to make sure fork 701 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 13: lists beep when they back up force the COVID shot 702 00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 13: on one hundred million people. So this fight really is 703 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,840 Speaker 13: about it's the opening salvo about returning power back to 704 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 13: where it always belonged, which is with the people and 705 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 13: the Article one branch, the legislative body should be making 706 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 13: these decisions. It's one of the reasons why Mike Lee 707 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 13: and I and others are really pushing for the Rains 708 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 13: Act to get done. 709 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 12: Because if you have an agency that's. 710 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 13: That's trying to get a rule done, right, we should 711 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 13: have to vote on it. Like if you think banning 712 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 13: Guestow's is such a great idea, make us vote on it. 713 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 13: And the truth is those ideas would never come that 714 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 13: far because they know they're ridiculous that never get voted on. 715 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 13: But if they did, and somebody voted on it or 716 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 13: voted against it, you could hold them accountable for it. 717 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 13: So this is I think a really important fight about 718 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 13: like where does power reside? And that permanent Washington and 719 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 13: mostly the Democrats, they really don't like that being exposed 720 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 13: because it's been a great deal for them. They get 721 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 13: other people to do their bidding and they're never held 722 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:20,439 Speaker 13: responsible for. 723 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 8: It, and this is exactly why they're going to try 724 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 8: to do everything they can to stop RUSS vote. 725 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,760 Speaker 1: Russ Vote is prepared. 726 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,240 Speaker 13: He's tip of the spirit, he's tip of their language, Charlie, 727 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 13: they're already language talking about Project twenty five. The irony 728 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 13: is their opening and closing argument during the campaign was 729 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 13: that Trump was a threat to democracy. Lost that in 730 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 13: the middle of that argument. Somewhere along the way they 731 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,240 Speaker 13: tried to scare people with the Project twenty five whatever. 732 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 12: But here we go. 733 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 13: Now they're using similar language, and they're just going to lose. 734 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 13: And we have to exercise the power that we have 735 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 13: now that we're the majority to right size government and 736 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 13: put power back. 737 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 12: To where it always belonged. 738 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: Center Schmidt, excellent work, Thank you so much. 739 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 12: All right, take care well. 740 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 8: When we may have won this election, the fight to 741 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 8: restore our great nation is only beginning. Now is the 742 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 8: time to take a stand, and Patriot Mobile is leading 743 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 8: the charge.

Elon Musk has 765 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 8: gone down to the central nervous system. Elon Musk has 766 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 8: really completed the impossible task.

For 776 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 8: those of you that watch Star Trek. In Star Trek 777 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:45,720 Speaker 8: two The Wrath of Khan, there is a fictional training 778 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 8: exercise called Kobayashimaru or Kmaru. In this it was an 779 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 8: exercise designed to test a cadets cadets cadets character and 780 00:41:58,160 --> 00:42:02,760 Speaker 8: ability to stay in control under pressure. The potential cadet 781 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 8: must decide whether or not to try and rescue the 782 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 8: damaged Kobayashu Maru ship or leave it destroyed. If a 783 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 8: cadet tries to rescue the ship, they'll face an insurmountable 784 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 8: enemy force. The exercises intended to help cadets learn to 785 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 8: deal with the emotional toll of defeat. Now there's only 786 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 8: one individual, and of course this fictional story in Star 787 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 8: Trek two Wrath of Khan that was ever able to 788 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:35,239 Speaker 8: beat the Kobayashi Maru, and it was Captain James Tiberius 789 00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 8: Kirk no relation who was the only one ever to 790 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 8: beat the exercise. 791 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 1: And how do he do it? By hacking the simulation? 792 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 8: What Elon Musk has done successfully via doje is he 793 00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 8: has hacked the matrix. He won a set piece battle 794 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 8: that was impossible, and the bad guys knew it, so 795 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 8: the system had to be completely reprogrammed to make success possible. 796 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:08,279 Speaker 8: Reject the premise and hack the matrix. Front page of 797 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 8: Politico dot com quote, They've done their homework. The unexpected 798 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 8: power of Musk's digital assault on Washington if the rules 799 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 8: are rigged, change the rules. Elon musk campaign to cut 800 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 8: Washington bureaucracy is aiming at a very specific, very sensitive 801 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:34,439 Speaker 8: digital power center, the federal IT infrastructure. 802 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 1: Musk and his allies. 803 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 8: Have gained access to the Treasury Department's payment systems. They've 804 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,759 Speaker 8: commandeered enough control of OPM to send out a mass 805 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 8: email offering to federal employees. Unnamed federal officials tell The 806 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 8: Washington Post. Anna Lewis, who is the former director of 807 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:54,479 Speaker 8: the Technology Transformation Services under GSA says quote Elon's team. 808 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 8: They've done their homework, going where the majority of the 809 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 8: volume of govern transaction data is very strategic. Elon Musk 810 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 8: has rejected the rules. Instead of playing the game of 811 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,720 Speaker 8: the Kobayashimaru, he went and changed the rules and hacked 812 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 8: the matrix. We're going after the computers. Give us the passwords. 813 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 8: What Elon has done is he has consolidated technological control 814 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 8: for the president by the way, as his emissary, as 815 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 8: his ambassador, as his representative, as his special government employee, 816 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,319 Speaker 8: to say, we can now send mass emails to the 817 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 8: entire federal government. Did you know, prior to Elon Musk 818 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 8: showing up and doing this, there is no way to 819 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 8: be able to email everyone at dot gov. There is 820 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 8: no federal directory of all the employees. There is no 821 00:44:43,480 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 8: way to be able to find out who does what 822 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 8: and where the payment systems are. Get me the passwords, 823 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 8: and you control the federal government. And the rock stars 824 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 8: he is bringing in are these young superstars. Here's one 825 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 8: of them, Cut ninety one, who's being smeared by the 826 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 8: media's Oh, these nineteen year olds, These nineteen year olds 827 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 8: are smarter than the entire combined intelligence of the US 828 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 8: Senator if you exclude Mike Lee and Ran Paul, and 829 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 8: there's a couple other great ones. Do we should be 830 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 8: grateful that these young geniuses are giving us a minute 831 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 8: of their time. Instead, they are being smeared, They're being attacked, 832 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 8: and they better be careful by the way. 833 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: This could be. I'm telling you, this could be a 834 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 1: Covington kid situation. 835 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 8: Two point zero. These are not private, These are not 836 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 8: public figures. These are private actors that are being attacked 837 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 8: every day by the media. This could be Nick Salmon 838 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 8: two point zero. Play cut ninety one and. 839 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,239 Speaker 15: One day, I was just listening to a podcast back 840 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 15: in March. It was with Nat Friedman. He just kind 841 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 15: of got on the podcast explained like, there are these 842 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,520 Speaker 15: burnt up scrolls that were buried in the POMPEII eruption. 843 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 10: No one knows how to read them. 844 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 15: But some professors have created CT scans of these scrolls, 845 00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 15: and they uploaded the data on the internet as a 846 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 15: competition to see who could find writing insight of these scrolls. 847 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 15: I just went home from work that day at the 848 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 15: end of the day, and I've been working on it 849 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 15: evenings and weekends ever since. Late one Saturday night, I 850 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:08,399 Speaker 15: was sitting at a party at a friend's house in Omaha, 851 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 15: and I get a text from another person on the 852 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 15: challenge team and he says, Hey, I've just uploaded this 853 00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 15: new kind of piece of the scroll. 854 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 12: You should take a look at it. 855 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 15: Right remotely access to my computer, I type into it, like, 856 00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 15: please run the algorithm on this new piece of scroll, 857 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 15: and then I just kind of started. I pull out 858 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,399 Speaker 15: my phone again, just nonchalantly, like hey, I wonder how 859 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,640 Speaker 15: that went. And there are three Greek letters on the screen. 860 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 15: The letters I'd never seen before. It was really cool 861 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,720 Speaker 15: because it's like, oh my goodness, like we actually detected 862 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 15: new writing in the scrolls using AI. And that was 863 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 15: the moment I realized, like, this is actually going to work. 864 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 15: We were probably going to read this roll. 865 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 8: That is one of the young men that Elon has 866 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 8: brought into the government. High IQ combined with patriotism. Combined 867 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 8: with patriotism is a threat to the establishment. The federal 868 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 8: government has been synonymous with underachieving, lazy mediocrities. But a 869 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 8: new team is here. Checkmate koled ba Yashi Maru Second 870 00:46:59,120 --> 00:46:59,879 Speaker 8: hour coming up. 871 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 11: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice. News Break I'm 872 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 11: Terrence Bates. We appreciate you being here with us. A 873 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 11: lot happening in the White House. In fact, we were 874 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:29,000 Speaker 11: expecting Caroline Levett, the White White House Press Secretary, to 875 00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:31,600 Speaker 11: take this podium here in short order. She has a 876 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 11: press availability here in the next couple of minutes. Obviously, 877 00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 11: she'll very likely be talking about and taking questions about 878 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 11: President Trump's position that he wants to kind of take 879 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 11: over Gaza and rebuild it after leveling it. All of 880 00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:50,680 Speaker 11: this obviously in light of the war between Israel and Hamas. Also, 881 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 11: she'll likely talk about the executive order that President Trump 882 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,200 Speaker 11: is set to sign this afternoon banning men from participating 883 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 11: in women's sports. President Trump also set to meet with 884 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 11: Texas Governor Greg Abbott this afternoon, as well as California 885 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 11: Governor Gavin Newsom. So in short order, a lot to 886 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 11: talk about, and she will be taking questions from the 887 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,360 Speaker 11: media here. That would be Caroline Levitt in a few minutes, 888 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,480 Speaker 11: will of course take you there live. In the meantime, 889 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 11: As I mentioned, President Trump making lots of headlines this 890 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 11: morning for dropping a figurative bomb on Tuesday during his 891 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 11: meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nt Yahoo. In case 892 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 11: you missed it, here's what he said. 893 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 9: The US will take over the Gaza Strip and we 894 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 9: will do a job with it too. We'll own it 895 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 9: and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded 896 00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 9: bombs and other weapons on the site. Level the site 897 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:43,439 Speaker 9: and get rid of the destroyed buildings. Level it out, 898 00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 9: create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of 899 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 9: jobs and housing for the people of the area. Do 900 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 9: a real job, do something different. Just can't go back. 901 00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,759 Speaker 9: If you go back, it's gonna end up the same 902 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:59,320 Speaker 9: way it has for one hundred years. 903 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,320 Speaker 11: The President going on to suggest that displaced Palestinians in 904 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,880 Speaker 11: Gaza be permanently resettled outside of the war torn region 905 00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 11: in the meantime. After meeting with Netanyahu as well, the 906 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 11: Trump Administration's Middle East Envoy Steve Whitkoff, saying the current 907 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 11: three to five year construction program for Gaza under the 908 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 11: current cease fire agreement just isn't viable while the logistics 909 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 11: are being worked out. 910 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:23,880 Speaker 16: Though. 911 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 11: Wikoff also plans to meet with Cutter's Prime Minister tomorrow 912 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 11: here in the United States to discuss the next phase 913 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:34,840 Speaker 11: in the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The first illegal 914 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 11: aliens being housed at Guantanamo Bay are getting used to 915 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 11: their new digs right now. After the first military deportation 916 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 11: flight from the United States landed at the Cuban based 917 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 11: on Tuesday. The plane reportedly had ten migrants from Fort 918 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:51,280 Speaker 11: Bliss and Texas on board. Eventually, the Trump administration expects 919 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 11: to house as many as thirty thousand illegals at Guantanamo 920 00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 11: before repatriating them to their home countries. Though the first 921 00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 11: flight to Guantanamo comes just one day after a flight 922 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,760 Speaker 11: filled with Indian immigrants was sent back to India. Turns 923 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 11: out more than seven hundred and twenty five thousand Indians 924 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 11: or living in the United States without authorization, which is 925 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,839 Speaker 11: the third most of any country. Other recent deportation flights 926 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 11: from the United States have gone to Ecuador, Guam, Honduras, 927 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 11: and Peru. Columbia, by the way, has also sent two 928 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 11: flights to the United States to pick up its citizens 929 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:28,719 Speaker 11: after initially refusing to accept the US repatriation planes. The 930 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:32,439 Speaker 11: US State Department is ordering all overseas missions for USAID 931 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:35,479 Speaker 11: to shut down and all foreign staff to return home, 932 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 11: preferably as soon as Friday, plus nearly all of the 933 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 11: agency's employees will be put on leave Friday night. It's 934 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 11: the latest thing to shake up at the USAID, which 935 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 11: President Trump and Department of Government Efficiency had Elon Musk 936 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,920 Speaker 11: agree is marred by fraud, waste, and abuse. The movement 937 00:50:53,000 --> 00:50:55,520 Speaker 11: appears to be the first step and potentially shutting down 938 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 11: the agency altogether. The agency has more than ten thousand employees, 939 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 11: with about. 940 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 10: Two thirds of them serving overseas. 941 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 11: Its mission is to provide humanitarian aid to more than 942 00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:09,720 Speaker 11: one hundred countries around the world, but critics, including President Trump, 943 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 11: point to millions of dollars being spent on everything but that. 944 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 11: And there's a bit of closure this morning for the 945 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 11: families of the victims of last week's deadly mid air 946 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:23,360 Speaker 11: collision involving an American Airlines plane and an Army chopper. 947 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:26,799 Speaker 11: The remains of all sixty seven people killed have now 948 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:31,160 Speaker 11: been recovered. Meantime, the National Transportation Safety Board is looking 949 00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:34,080 Speaker 11: at new information and trying to confirm that the Blackhawk 950 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 11: helicopter was in fact flying above its two hundred foot 951 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 11: flight ceiling, potentially even as high as three hundred feet. 952 00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 10: Officials say the flight. 953 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,759 Speaker 11: Recorder from on board the plane confirms that it was 954 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 11: flying at an attitude of about three hundred and twenty 955 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 11: five feet when it crashed. Investigators are also hoping to 956 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 11: get more details about what went wrong from inside the 957 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:55,360 Speaker 11: still submerged chopper. 958 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 10: We're working breaking news also just into our newsroom. 959 00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 11: It turns out that Senator Mitch McConnell, the eighty two 960 00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:04,920 Speaker 11: year old, has fallen down the Senate stairs and stairs 961 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 11: excuse me. It is the latest health scare involving the 962 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,960 Speaker 11: longtime Senator.

McConnell, 967 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,800 Speaker 11: of course, has had a number of recent health scares, 968 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 11: including this moment here. You probably remember it when he 969 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:33,799 Speaker 11: was speaking and then just kind of. 970 00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:34,879 Speaker 10: Seized up, if you will. 971 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,759 Speaker 11: There's no word on just how he's doing or if 972 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 11: he was seriously injured during the fall, but again, he 973 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,960 Speaker 11: was able to be helped up by fellow senators after 974 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 11: he fell down the stairs, so We'll continue to monitor 975 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 11: this developing story as well as eighty two year old 976 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 11: Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell has fallen down the stairs at 977 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,880 Speaker 11: the US Senate.

President Trump is an outside of the box 1016 00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 14: thinker and a visionary leader who solves problems that many others, 1017 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 14: especially in this city, claim are unsolvable. We've already seen 1018 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 14: the results from President Trump's bold peace through strength diplomacy 1019 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 14: on the world stage. In response to President Trump's tariffs 1020 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 14: this week, both Mexico and Canada took immediate steps to 1021 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 14: alleviate the illegal alien migration and flow of deadly jougs, 1022 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:17,320 Speaker 14: particularly fetanyl, into our country.

Throughout the transition and during his 1032 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 14: inaugural address, President Trump made it known that the United 1033 00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:00,720 Speaker 14: States cannot and will not allow the China the Communist 1034 00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 14: Party to continue with its effective and growing control over 1035 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 14: the Panama Canal. Following Secretary Rubio's successful first trip and 1036 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 14: visit there over the weekend, Panama's president said he will 1037 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:16,919 Speaker 14: allow its participation in the Chinese Communist parties, it will 1038 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:20,240 Speaker 14: no longer allow the participation in the Belton Road initiative. 1039 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 3: That participation will expire. This is significant because. 1040 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,960 Speaker 14: Panama was the first Latin American nation to join beltoon 1041 00:57:28,040 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 14: Road and now becomes the first to back away from 1042 00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 14: it because of President Trump. And to assist with the 1043 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 14: ongoing mass deportation effort, Al Salvador's president has agreed to 1044 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:42,680 Speaker 14: the most unprecedented migratory agreement anywhere in the world because 1045 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 14: President Trump is back in charge. El Salvador has offered 1046 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 14: for illegal aliens of any nationality facing deportation in the 1047 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:55,360 Speaker 14: US to be booked in his country's prison system. And finally, 1048 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,480 Speaker 14: President Trump's Envoy for Special Missions, Rick Cornell, traveled to 1049 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 14: Venezuela and not only secure the release of six American hostages, 1050 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 14: but Venezuela also agreed to accept the return of illegal 1051 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 14: alien Trend de Aragua gang members. All of these incredible 1052 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 14: victories prove how well President Trump's peace through strength approach 1053 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 14: is working in the days of weak American leadership are over. 1054 00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 14: In another success story this week, efforts to seal the border, 1055 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 14: halt the invasion, and carry out the largest mass deportation 1056 00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:29,760 Speaker 14: campaign continue at lightning speed.

On another important and ongoing topic, 1081 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 14: the Senate is working fast to confirm President Trump's exceptional 1082 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 14: cabinet nominees in the face of relentless media smear campaigns. 1083 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 14: As of right now, twelve members of the president cabinet 1084 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,800 Speaker 14: have been confirmed, most recently Pam Bondi, who, as you 1085 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 14: all know, I was just in the Oval Office for 1086 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 14: that swearing in ceremonies, surrounded by Pam's lovely family, and 1087 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 14: we look forward to watching her serve as the Attorney 1088 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:15,480 Speaker 14: General of the United States.

Another success story, and 1091 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 14: we believe it's critical that Republicans in the Senate majority 1092 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 14: stay tough and keep their foot on the gas to 1093 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:33,080 Speaker 14: confirm all of the remaining nominees as quickly as possible 1094 01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:36,520 Speaker 14: so we can continue President Trump's important work here at 1095 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 14: the White House and across our entire federal government.

So far, the Senate, as we know, 1136 01:02:43,720 --> 01:02:45,760 Speaker 16: has not brought it up to vote. We all know 1137 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 16: executive orders can be overturned, so I'm wondering how important 1138 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 16: it is to the President to get Congress to bring 1139 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 16: this to pass legislation, so there are no instances like 1140 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 16: the passive administration that really tried to destroy Title nine. 1141 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 14: It's incredibly important that Congress immediately acts on this priority. 1142 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 14: I think the President is really setting the tone, making 1143 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 14: this a very immediate priority for this administration, just as 1144 01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 14: he promised to do on the campaign trail. And I'd 1145 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:15,720 Speaker 14: like to get into the executive order a little bit 1146 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,640 Speaker 14: because it is the news of the day here at 1147 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 14: the White House, and talk about what this executive action 1148 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 14: will actually do. So the executive order that the President, 1149 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:26,959 Speaker 14: the President will be signing later this afternoon, as I said, 1150 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:31,000 Speaker 14: upholds the promise of Title nine. It also will require 1151 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:36,920 Speaker 14: the DOJ to abide by the nationwide previous administration's illegal 1152 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 14: Title nine rewrite that would have dissolved single sex spaces 1153 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:45,000 Speaker 14: and opportunities. It also requires immediate action, including enforcement actions 1154 01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:49,160 Speaker 14: against schools and athletic associations comprised of schools that deny 1155 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 14: women single sex sports in single sex locker rooms. The 1156 01:03:53,720 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 14: executive order also calls for the convening of private sporting. 1157 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 3: Bodies in the White House. 1158 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 14: We want them to come to this case so the 1159 01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:03,920 Speaker 14: President can hear in person the stories of female athletes 1160 01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 14: who have suffered lifelong industry injuries, who have been silenced 1161 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:10,560 Speaker 14: and forced to shower with men and compete with men 1162 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 14: on athletic fields across the country. Many of those women 1163 01:04:14,120 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 14: will be at the White House today. 1164 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:17,680 Speaker 3: I encourage all of you in the media to actually 1165 01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:19,880 Speaker 3: talk to them to hear their stories. Then I would 1166 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:21,160 Speaker 3: also just add one more thing. 1167 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,360 Speaker 14: This is a wildly popular position with the American people. 1168 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 14: In fact, there was a new poll recently that showed 1169 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 14: the overwhelming majority of Democrats also support keeping biological men 1170 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,040 Speaker 14: out of women's sports. And so I know the President 1171 01:04:35,120 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 14: is very excited about the bill signing that will take 1172 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:39,000 Speaker 14: place at three o'clock this afternoon. 1173 01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 3: You will hear from him more on that later, and 1174 01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 3: we look forward to seeing you their stage. So thank 1175 01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 3: you very very much, Garrett. Great to see you here today. 1176 01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 3: Thank you. 1177 01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:51,280 Speaker 18: On Gaza. The President has spent basically his entire public 1178 01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 18: career criticizing foreign entanglements, nation building, sending American troops to 1179 01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 18: fight abroad, particularly in the Middle East. This plan seems 1180 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:02,240 Speaker 18: like it could ultimately involve. 1181 01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:03,200 Speaker 12: All of those things. 1182 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:07,600 Speaker 18: Can you explain this reversal in how building and owning 1183 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:10,480 Speaker 18: Gaza squares with America first form policy. 1184 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 14: I would reject the premise of your question that this 1185 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 14: forces the United States to be entangled in conflicts abroad. 1186 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 14: The President has not committed to putting boots on the 1187 01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,640 Speaker 14: ground in Gaza. He has also said that the United 1188 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 14: States is not going to pay for the rebuilding of Gaza. 1189 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:28,640 Speaker 14: His administration is going to work with our partners in 1190 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 14: the region. 1191 01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 3: To reconstruct this region. 1192 01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,120 Speaker 14: And let me just take a step back here, because 1193 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 14: this is an out of the box idea. That's who 1194 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:40,160 Speaker 14: President Trump is, that's why the American people elected him, 1195 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 14: and his goal is lasting peace in the Middle East 1196 01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 14: for all people in the region. And as I said 1197 01:05:47,520 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 14: in my opening remarks, we've had the same people pushing 1198 01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:54,439 Speaker 14: the same solutions to this problem for decades, and it's 1199 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 14: been made very clear to the President that the United 1200 01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:01,000 Speaker 14: States needs to be revolved involved in this rebuilding effort 1201 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 14: to assure stability in the region for all people. But 1202 01:06:04,480 --> 01:06:06,720 Speaker 14: that does not mean boots on the ground in Gaza. 1203 01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 14: It does not mean American taxpayers will be funding this effort. 1204 01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 14: It means Donald Trump, who is the best deal maker 1205 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 14: on the planet, is going to strike a deal with 1206 01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:14,920 Speaker 14: our partners in the region. 1207 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 18: He did not rule out American troops in Guayza last night. 1208 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 12: Are you doing that now? 1209 01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 14: I am saying that the President has not committed to 1210 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:24,040 Speaker 14: that just yet. He has not made that commitment, and 1211 01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:24,440 Speaker 14: you know that. 1212 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 18: And on the foreign partners, the Jordanians, the Egyptians, the 1213 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,040 Speaker 18: Saudis have already panned to this plan. What foreign partners, 1214 01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:33,320 Speaker 18: if any, have expressed any interest in being part of it. 1215 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,800 Speaker 14: Well, the President has said he's been socialing this idea 1216 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:38,120 Speaker 14: for quite some time. He's been thinking about this, he 1217 01:06:38,240 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 14: said in his remarks last night. This was not a 1218 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:44,320 Speaker 14: decision or an announcement that he takes lightly. And the 1219 01:06:44,360 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 14: President has already spoken to the President Alcci. In fact, 1220 01:06:47,880 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 14: that was his first foreign leader call. He's meeting with 1221 01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:53,160 Speaker 14: the King of Jordan, King of Doulah next week. He 1222 01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 14: spoke with the King of Bahrain, he spoke with the 1223 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,480 Speaker 14: Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, and he has made it 1224 01:06:58,640 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 14: very clear. 1225 01:06:59,160 --> 01:07:01,720 Speaker 3: He's been very vocal that he expects. 1226 01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:04,560 Speaker 14: Our partners in the region, particularly Egypt and Jordan, to 1227 01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:09,160 Speaker 14: accept Palestinian refugees temporarily so that we can rebuild their home. 1228 01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:12,160 Speaker 3: I'd like to show you some images of Gaza. 1229 01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:14,880 Speaker 14: That were taken at Fox News, and this, I mean 1230 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 14: that is, as they put it, in an apocalyptic scene 1231 01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:23,040 Speaker 14: in Gaza, this is an unhabitable place for human beings. 1232 01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:26,800 Speaker 14: Do you really think that that families can live their 1233 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:29,160 Speaker 14: dream in a region that looks like this with no 1234 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:33,240 Speaker 14: running water, no electricity. And the Special Envoy to the President, 1235 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 14: Steve Whitcoff, recently traveled to Gaza, as you all know, 1236 01:07:36,240 --> 01:07:38,400 Speaker 14: and he came back with images that he showed the 1237 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 14: President of the dire situation here, and the President made 1238 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 14: this decision with a humanitarian heart for all people in 1239 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:46,480 Speaker 14: the region. 1240 01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 19: Peter, thank you, Caroline. 1241 01:07:49,400 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 20: Are any officials here preparing to fight democratic lawmakers in 1242 01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:53,720 Speaker 20: the streets? 1243 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,880 Speaker 3: Absolutely not so, And thanks for the question. 1244 01:07:58,200 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 20: Some elected Democrats are so steam about doge. Congresswoman Lamonica 1245 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:05,760 Speaker 20: mcgiver says, we are at war, Ilhan Omar says we 1246 01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:09,800 Speaker 20: might actually see somebody get killed, and Chris van Hollen says, 1247 01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,200 Speaker 20: we have to fight this in the Congress, we have 1248 01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 20: to fight this in the streets. 1249 01:08:12,840 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 6: So what now? 1250 01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,120 Speaker 14: And may I just point out if you heard that 1251 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 14: type of violent, enticing rhetoric from our side of the isle, 1252 01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 14: from Republican leaders on Capitol Hill, I think there would 1253 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:25,040 Speaker 14: be a lot. 1254 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:26,599 Speaker 3: More outrage in this room today. 1255 01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,479 Speaker 14: It's unacceptable the comments that have been made by these 1256 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:32,519 Speaker 14: Democrat leaders, and frankly, they don't even know what they're 1257 01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 14: talking about. Because President Trump was an elected with a 1258 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:39,320 Speaker 14: mandate from the American people to make this government more efficient. 1259 01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 14: He campaigned across this country with Elon Musk vowing that 1260 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 14: Elon was going to head up the Department of Government 1261 01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 14: Efficiency and the two of them, with a great team 1262 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 14: around them, were going to look at the receipts of 1263 01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:54,560 Speaker 14: this federal government and insurance accountable to American taxpayers. 1264 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 3: That's all that is happening here. And for Democrat officials. 1265 01:08:57,840 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 14: To incite violence and encourage an Americans to take to 1266 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 14: the streets is incredibly alarming and they should be held 1267 01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 14: accountable for that rhetoric. 1268 01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 20: It sounds like something that they're most concerned about is 1269 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:12,080 Speaker 20: DOGE engineers with access to Treasury systems? Can you clarify 1270 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 20: do the DOGE engineers have read only access in these systems, 1271 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:16,800 Speaker 20: so they. 1272 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 12: Are not allowed to write new code? They are not okay? 1273 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 21: And then one more thing. 1274 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:24,360 Speaker 20: NBC is reporting that some of the illegal immigrants that 1275 01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 20: we've seen rounded up and arrested are not being deported. 1276 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:33,400 Speaker 20: They're being released with ankle or wrist monitoring devices or 1277 01:09:33,400 --> 01:09:35,320 Speaker 20: they have to check in on the phone. So is 1278 01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:38,960 Speaker 20: the administration arresting more people than you have room for? 1279 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,840 Speaker 14: I have seen the reports and I'm glad you brought 1280 01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 14: it up because we want to address it. There have 1281 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 14: been a total of four hundred and sixty one illegal aliens. 1282 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:49,559 Speaker 14: This is of this morning when I got this information 1283 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:53,040 Speaker 14: from DHS that have been released from custody. Of the 1284 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:56,519 Speaker 14: more than eight thousand that have been arrested since President 1285 01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:59,720 Speaker 14: Trump was inaugurated, it's less than six percent, and there 1286 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:02,600 Speaker 14: are reasons for their release. Some of the factors include 1287 01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,120 Speaker 14: a lack of significant likelihood of removal and the foreseeable 1288 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,000 Speaker 14: future lack of detention availability, which is something this President 1289 01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 14: in this administration has been. 1290 01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 3: Incredibly vocal about. 1291 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:16,280 Speaker 14: We are doing everything we can to deport and detain 1292 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:19,799 Speaker 14: illegal immigrants, but we need Congress's help to increase funding 1293 01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:23,440 Speaker 14: for border patrol and for ICE, to increase detention capability 1294 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:27,240 Speaker 14: in our facilities. And then other serious medical conditions have 1295 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,000 Speaker 14: also been the reasons for some of the release of 1296 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 14: these individuals, but none of them have final deportation orders. 1297 01:10:32,400 --> 01:10:35,639 Speaker 14: Many of them are probably contesting their immigration status. I'd 1298 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,080 Speaker 14: refer you to DHS for more details, but I did 1299 01:10:38,080 --> 01:10:39,880 Speaker 14: get that information because I knew it would be a question. 1300 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:41,280 Speaker 3: So thank you. Sure. 1301 01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:45,160 Speaker 22: Yes, the President and you here again today have made 1302 01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 22: They're given the devastation. You think Palestinians have no choice 1303 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 22: but to leave Gaza and go elsewhere, But Palestinians say 1304 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:51,880 Speaker 22: this is their home. 1305 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:52,600 Speaker 12: They don't want to go. 1306 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,439 Speaker 22: The President last night said he's willing to use the 1307 01:10:55,479 --> 01:10:59,400 Speaker 22: military if necessary. Is the US prepared to remove Palestinians 1308 01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:00,800 Speaker 22: from Gaza by force? 1309 01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 14: The President is prepared to rebuild Gaza for Palestinians in 1310 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 14: all people in the region, peace loving people who want 1311 01:11:08,439 --> 01:11:12,280 Speaker 14: real economic development and opportunity in the region. This is 1312 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 14: a region that has been controlled by Iranian back terrorists Hamas, 1313 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:19,880 Speaker 14: who have brutalized not just Israelis, but Palestinians too. It 1314 01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:22,400 Speaker 14: is because of Hamas that you see those images on 1315 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:26,120 Speaker 14: that screen that Gaza has become a demolition site, because 1316 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:29,479 Speaker 14: Hamas launched that brutal attack on Israel on October the seventh. 1317 01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,559 Speaker 14: And so again I would stress President Trump wants to 1318 01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:35,519 Speaker 14: ensure that this can be a place where all people 1319 01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,759 Speaker 14: can live in peace. He is a peacemaker in chief. 1320 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,400 Speaker 14: He made that very clear in his first term. And 1321 01:11:41,560 --> 01:11:44,120 Speaker 14: as for how that will be accomplished, the President and 1322 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:46,439 Speaker 14: his team are talking with our allies in the region 1323 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:47,960 Speaker 14: to consider next steps. 1324 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 22: What should the American people be prepared to see US 1325 01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 22: military on the ground fighting a ground war against Hamas. 1326 01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 14: Again, the President has not committed to US troops in 1327 01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,439 Speaker 14: the region, but it is an option. I have said 1328 01:11:58,439 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 14: that the President has not committed to that yet. 1329 01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:02,240 Speaker 3: Sure you just. 1330 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 12: Follow up on that though. 1331 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 23: Why not rule out the idea of committing US troops 1332 01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 23: This has been a longstanding argument that the President has 1333 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 23: made really over the last decade or so, talking about 1334 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,760 Speaker 23: endless wars and something in the US wants. 1335 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:16,840 Speaker 14: Why not rule out because I think the President is 1336 01:12:16,960 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 14: very good when he's making deals and negotiating not to 1337 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:24,400 Speaker 14: rule out anything because he wants to preserve that leverage 1338 01:12:24,680 --> 01:12:27,240 Speaker 14: and negotiations, and so I think that's what he's doing here. 1339 01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:29,559 Speaker 19: Mary all up and that though he also said that 1340 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 19: everyone loves this plan. He said that in the Oval 1341 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 19: office this morning. In fact, the deputy Prime Minister of 1342 01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:38,920 Speaker 19: Jordan called it the declaration of war on the Arab people. 1343 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:41,400 Speaker 19: So how does he square the fact that even some 1344 01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:44,720 Speaker 19: Republicans on the Hill are objecting to this or questioning this. 1345 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:47,000 Speaker 19: How does he square the fact thing everyone loves this? 1346 01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,559 Speaker 14: Well, King Abdullah of Jordan will be here next week, 1347 01:12:49,680 --> 01:12:52,560 Speaker 14: so I can provide you more context on the conversations 1348 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 14: he will have directly with the President of the United 1349 01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:57,280 Speaker 14: States after that meeting. And I would just point out 1350 01:12:57,320 --> 01:12:59,559 Speaker 14: that there's been a lot of leaders and officials all 1351 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 14: around the world world who have doubted, I suppose the 1352 01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 14: deal making ability of President Trump. 1353 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:07,600 Speaker 3: You heard the Panama leader. 1354 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 14: Saying that he would not agree to some of the 1355 01:13:10,280 --> 01:13:13,439 Speaker 14: concessions that he has now made because of Secretary Rubio's visit. 1356 01:13:13,640 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 24: You have the. 1357 01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:17,320 Speaker 14: Colombian president saying he wouldn't accept flights of Colombian illegal 1358 01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 14: nationals who have entered into our country illegally, and those 1359 01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:24,719 Speaker 14: flights are underway. So actions speak louder than words, Dasha Carline, 1360 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:26,920 Speaker 14: you said the President has been working on this idea 1361 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:28,639 Speaker 14: for a while behind the scenes. 1362 01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 12: Now is there a written plan based on the. 1363 01:13:31,439 --> 01:13:34,640 Speaker 24: President's proposal for Raza and it's so, when was it 1364 01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 24: drafted and who had a hand in that. 1365 01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 14: The plan was written in the president's remarks last night 1366 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,280 Speaker 14: as he revealed it to the world and to the 1367 01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:44,680 Speaker 14: American people, and his team are continuing to be engaged 1368 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:45,320 Speaker 14: on this effort. 1369 01:13:45,400 --> 01:13:47,320 Speaker 3: I saw the National Security Advisor this morning. 1370 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:49,479 Speaker 14: He has a very busy day of calls and they 1371 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,040 Speaker 14: will again continue to engage with our partners, that includes 1372 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:53,160 Speaker 14: Steve Whitkoff as well. 1373 01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:53,679 Speaker 3: Mary. 1374 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,000 Speaker 25: Two questions for you on the news of the day, So, 1375 01:13:57,320 --> 01:14:00,519 Speaker 25: how is today's executive order going to impact the twenty 1376 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:02,800 Speaker 25: twenty eight Summer Olympics in Los Angeles? 1377 01:14:03,160 --> 01:14:05,799 Speaker 6: For example, would a man who thinks that he's. 1378 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,719 Speaker 25: A transitioner woman be allowed to compete as a female 1379 01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:09,800 Speaker 25: on US soil. 1380 01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:13,120 Speaker 14: It's a very good question, and the President has actually 1381 01:14:13,280 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 14: mentioned this that he does expect the Olympic Committee and 1382 01:14:16,680 --> 01:14:20,720 Speaker 14: the NCAA to no longer allow men to compete in 1383 01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:23,880 Speaker 14: women's sports. And I think the President, with the signing 1384 01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:27,479 Speaker 14: of his pen starts a very public pressure campaign on 1385 01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:30,600 Speaker 14: these organizations to do the right thing for women and 1386 01:14:30,640 --> 01:14:33,840 Speaker 14: for girls across the country. Again, this is an incredibly 1387 01:14:33,880 --> 01:14:37,200 Speaker 14: popular position. There have been many notable female athletes who 1388 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 14: have had the courage to speak out against some very 1389 01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 14: powerful institutions in this country. 1390 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:43,360 Speaker 3: They deserve to have a voice in a say. 1391 01:14:43,400 --> 01:14:46,080 Speaker 14: The President is bringing their voice to the highest level 1392 01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 14: at the White House this afternoon, and he expects these 1393 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:51,639 Speaker 14: organizations to comply with this federal executive order that he'll 1394 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 14: be signing today. 1395 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:52,720 Speaker 6: Thank you. 1396 01:14:52,760 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 25: And one more on media coverage of this executive order 1397 01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 25: in the topic in general, what's the White House's view 1398 01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 25: of for that calls men, transgender, females or similar rhetoric 1399 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:06,680 Speaker 25: coming from organizations like the ACLU and glad. 1400 01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:10,600 Speaker 14: Well, It's been very clear the policy of this administration 1401 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:14,280 Speaker 14: is that there are only two sexes, male and female. 1402 01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:15,360 Speaker 14: Pretty simple. 1403 01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:20,000 Speaker 26: Brian Glenn Yes, USAID has gotten a lot of attention 1404 01:15:20,040 --> 01:15:22,120 Speaker 26: in the last couple of days with some of these 1405 01:15:22,160 --> 01:15:28,160 Speaker 26: bizarre things that we've been taxpayers have been funded. Now 1406 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:31,080 Speaker 26: it looks like there are a couple of media outlets 1407 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:34,599 Speaker 26: that have been dragged into this conversation as far as 1408 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:36,320 Speaker 26: the USAID as well. 1409 01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:37,920 Speaker 12: Does the present have any comment on that? 1410 01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:41,680 Speaker 14: So upon coming out here to the briefing room, I 1411 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:46,719 Speaker 14: was made aware of the funding from USAID to media 1412 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:49,479 Speaker 14: outlets including Politico, who I know has a seat in 1413 01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:53,160 Speaker 14: this room. And I can confirm that the more than 1414 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:56,680 Speaker 14: eight million taxpayer dollars that have gone to essentially subsidizing 1415 01:15:56,720 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 14: subscriptions to Politico, the American taxpayer's dying will no longer 1416 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 14: be happening. The DOGE team is working on canceling those 1417 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 14: payments now. 1418 01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:05,400 Speaker 3: Again, this is a whole of. 1419 01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 14: Government effort to ensure that we are going line by 1420 01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:12,679 Speaker 14: line when it comes to the federal of government's books, 1421 01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:17,519 Speaker 14: and this president and his team are making decisions across 1422 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 14: the board on do these receipts serve the interests of. 1423 01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:22,160 Speaker 3: The American people. 1424 01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:25,360 Speaker 14: Is this a good use of the American taxpayer's money. 1425 01:16:25,560 --> 01:16:28,120 Speaker 14: If it is not, that funding will no longer be 1426 01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:31,719 Speaker 14: sent abroad and American taxpayers will see significant savings because 1427 01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:32,360 Speaker 14: of that effort. 1428 01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:33,320 Speaker 8: Thank you. 1429 01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:35,880 Speaker 3: I'd like to give some love to the back row. 1430 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,800 Speaker 14: I've heard that unfortunately they haven't been called on in 1431 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:39,599 Speaker 14: years past. 1432 01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:42,000 Speaker 3: So Reagan, why don't you go ahead?

He also believes 1489 01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:15,200 Speaker 14: tariffs are a great revenue razor for this country, and 1490 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,680 Speaker 14: that's exactly why he has committed to the creation of 1491 01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:20,720 Speaker 14: the External Revenue Service. 1492 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:22,559 Speaker 3: Which I think is a phenomenal idea.

The 1501 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:50,719 Speaker 14: President wants these individuals to live in peace. 1502 01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 3: He is committed to doing that. 1503 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:54,599 Speaker 14: With this very bold new plan, and we will continue 1504 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:57,320 Speaker 14: to keep you apprized of updates as we receive them. 1505 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:00,200 Speaker 3: Ed Laurence, go ahead, yes, go ahead. 1506 01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:00,880 Speaker 8: Thank you. 1507 01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:03,880 Speaker 18: So, now that the President Trump's policies are starting to 1508 01:20:04,240 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 18: take shape, how long will it take to cycle through 1509 01:20:06,920 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 18: and get some of the actual prices that Americans are 1510 01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:10,280 Speaker 18: paying to come down? 1511 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:13,719 Speaker 14: Prices at the store and at the grocery pump across 1512 01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,760 Speaker 14: the board, Shore, Well, the President is doing everything he can, 1513 01:20:16,960 --> 01:20:19,400 Speaker 14: obviously to reduce the cost of living crisis in this 1514 01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 14: country as quickly as possible. That is that's why he 1515 01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:26,080 Speaker 14: signed a litany of executive orders across the board in 1516 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:27,200 Speaker 14: the first couple of weeks. 1517 01:20:27,240 --> 01:20:29,520 Speaker 3: Here he declared a national energy emergency. 1518 01:20:29,960 --> 01:20:32,880 Speaker 14: He committed to cutting ten regulations for every new one 1519 01:20:32,880 --> 01:20:35,120 Speaker 14: on the book.

Is if the abolishment of the Department of 1545 01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 14: Education continues, which, as the President said yesterday, it's something 1546 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,920 Speaker 14: his team is looking at and considering. It's something he 1547 01:21:46,000 --> 01:21:48,800 Speaker 14: talked a lot about on the campaign trail. Then, of course, 1548 01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 14: we will look at additional maneuvers to ensure that these 1549 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:54,760 Speaker 14: very important policies can be implemented. 1550 01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:57,120 Speaker 12: Okay, so the education abolishman thinks still on the table. 1551 01:21:57,760 --> 01:22:00,000 Speaker 14: When the President talked about it yesterday in the Oval Office, 1552 01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 14: he has good reason to talk about it. I mean, look, 1553 01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:05,599 Speaker 14: our education system is failing students in this country. 1554 01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:07,400 Speaker 3: The nation's report card. I brought it up in my 1555 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:08,439 Speaker 3: remarks last week. 1556 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,720 Speaker 14: It shows that fourth graders are not reading at the 1557 01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:13,600 Speaker 14: level they should. I believe it was forty percent of 1558 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:17,320 Speaker 14: them our proficient in reading. As the mother of a child, 1559 01:22:17,360 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 14: I want an education system that helps my child read 1560 01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 14: and write, teaches him math, nothing else in the classroom. 1561 01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:28,759 Speaker 14: And the President is wholeheartedly committed to we can make academia. 1562 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:32,200 Speaker 3: Great again in this country. DNA, Thanks Carline. 1563 01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,679 Speaker 6: That's the president as he was looking at offering anything 1564 01:22:36,720 --> 01:22:39,600 Speaker 6: to these Arab countries that take in Palestinians, is you 1565 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:43,960 Speaker 6: willing to give them anything in return? And secondly, when 1566 01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:48,480 Speaker 6: the President announced his taking over galls up policy yesterday, 1567 01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 6: was not in Yahoo aware of this? 1568 01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:53,000 Speaker 3: And what was his reaction when Trump presented that. 1569 01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:53,639 Speaker 13: Idea to him? 1570 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:57,200 Speaker 14: I was not I won't get ahead of the President's 1571 01:22:57,240 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 14: discussions or negotiations. On your first question about what would 1572 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,519 Speaker 14: be offered, I think the President's made it clear that 1573 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,639 Speaker 14: he expects these nations in the region to step up 1574 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:10,400 Speaker 14: and to accept a Palestinian refugees who will be temporarily 1575 01:23:10,479 --> 01:23:14,120 Speaker 14: relocated for the rebuilding of Gaza. As for whether Prime 1576 01:23:14,120 --> 01:23:17,719 Speaker 14: Minister Netanyahoo was aware before the president's remarks, he was. Indeed, 1577 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,560 Speaker 14: I wasn't present for that reaction. But again, this is 1578 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,440 Speaker 14: something the President has been socializing and thinking. 1579 01:23:23,160 --> 01:23:27,280 Speaker 3: About for quite some time. Nick, good to see you, Jeordan, Sorry. 1580 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:32,160 Speaker 21: Caroline, So secretary. He announced yesterday that army recruiting levels 1581 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:35,639 Speaker 21: have reached twelve year highs in December, fifteen year highs 1582 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:38,759 Speaker 21: in January. What is making young people want to serve 1583 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:41,400 Speaker 21: the military under the Trump administration and how does that 1584 01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:46,679 Speaker 21: contrast to Biden's failure consistently to be recruiting average. 1585 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1586 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:51,600 Speaker 21: Does President Trump's anti DII agenda player role in this? 1587 01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,479 Speaker 14: First of all, the recruitment level for all branches of 1588 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:57,599 Speaker 14: our military are at crisis levels, and it serves as 1589 01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:02,600 Speaker 14: a national security risk that our military branches are not 1590 01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:05,519 Speaker 14: fully staffed to where they need to be. And I 1591 01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 14: do believe it's a culture problem within these institutions that 1592 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:13,400 Speaker 14: the President is very much committed to fixing, as emphasized 1593 01:24:13,439 --> 01:24:16,120 Speaker 14: by the executive orders he has signed to DEI out 1594 01:24:16,160 --> 01:24:18,559 Speaker 14: of the military.

Perhaps I'll even call you 1650 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,240 Speaker 14: in to join him. We never know around here, as 1651 01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 14: you all know. But Governor Abbitt is obviously a great 1652 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:52,160 Speaker 14: friend and an ally to the President. He has been 1653 01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:54,839 Speaker 14: on the front lines of the border crisis in this country. 1654 01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 14: And as for Governor Gavin Newsom, well, the President is 1655 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:01,280 Speaker 14: willing to work with anybody from Blue states or red 1656 01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:03,439 Speaker 14: states to do it's best for the American people. And 1657 01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:06,479 Speaker 14: he really enjoyed The President really enjoyed his trip to 1658 01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:10,479 Speaker 14: Pacific Palisades last week. He felt very inspired by the 1659 01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:13,760 Speaker 14: frustration of the residents there, and he has been wholeheartedly 1660 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:17,240 Speaker 14: committed to ensuring that the water is flowing in California 1661 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 14: to prevent these wildfires and also that people have access 1662 01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:25,640 Speaker 14: to their properties. And he has continued to apply tremendous 1663 01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 14: pressure to Gavin Newsom and also the Los Angeles Mayor 1664 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:32,799 Speaker 14: to allow private residents and property owners to access their property. 1665 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:34,800 Speaker 14: He believes that's their right to do so and they 1666 01:27:34,800 --> 01:27:36,840 Speaker 14: should be able to do it. And one more thing 1667 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:38,640 Speaker 14: before I wrap up, because I do want to get 1668 01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:40,320 Speaker 14: to these meetings and I will see you all at 1669 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 14: the EO signing later this afternoon. I would just say 1670 01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:47,080 Speaker 14: that you brought to mind California in North Carolina, who 1671 01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:49,040 Speaker 14: continue to be on our hearts, and the President and 1672 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 14: this administration are committed to ensuring that these individuals get 1673 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:54,559 Speaker 14: the funding that they need. And I would just say 1674 01:27:54,600 --> 01:27:58,680 Speaker 14: a strong message to Democrats who are out there pretending 1675 01:27:58,760 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 14: to be outraged about the long list of crap that 1676 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:05,960 Speaker 14: this administration is cutting federal waste and funding like two 1677 01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:09,880 Speaker 14: million dollars for sex changes in Guatemala, six million to 1678 01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:13,519 Speaker 14: fund tourism in Egypt, twenty million on a new sesame 1679 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:17,080 Speaker 14: street show in Iraq, four point five million to combat 1680 01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:20,519 Speaker 14: disinformation in Kazakhstan. I could go on and on, and 1681 01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:22,519 Speaker 14: I'm happy to provide this list to every single one 1682 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:25,800 Speaker 14: of you. Democrats are outraged that the American people want 1683 01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:29,040 Speaker 14: to be They want their taxpayers going to good uses, 1684 01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:32,519 Speaker 14: not stuff like this. But then they're very quiet about 1685 01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:35,240 Speaker 14: the fact that there are still North Carolinians and people 1686 01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:38,479 Speaker 14: in California who have lost everything and in the last 1687 01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:41,479 Speaker 14: four years the federal government did nothing to help them. 1688 01:28:41,800 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 14: This president will continue to put Americans first, and I 1689 01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:47,240 Speaker 14: think the successes of this week so far speak to that. 1690 01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 14: And it's only Wednesday, so I'll see you guys later 1691 01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:50,959 Speaker 14: this week, and we'll see you this afternoon. 1692 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:51,639 Speaker 3: Thank you very much. 1693 01:28:54,280 --> 01:28:57,479 Speaker 11: White House Press Secretary Caroline Levit's speaking there in the 1694 01:28:57,520 --> 01:28:58,719 Speaker 11: White House Press Briefing. 1695 01:28:58,920 --> 01:29:01,280 Speaker 10: All right, let's get you back to Charlie Kirkshow. 1696 01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:03,639 Speaker 12: Now this has been a little center special USA pay 1697 01:29:03,680 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 12: them twenty seven dollars. I mean, while you. 1698 01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:12,840 Speaker 17: Had USAD adjacent riot planners in twenty twenty who openly contemplated, 1699 01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:16,000 Speaker 17: through a group called the Transition Integrity Project, that Black 1700 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:18,560 Speaker 17: Lives Matter should be capacity built in the middle of 1701 01:29:18,600 --> 01:29:22,640 Speaker 17: their riots to serve as a potential destabilization force to 1702 01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:25,880 Speaker 17: oust Trump from office if he won the twenty twenty election. 1703 01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:31,320 Speaker 8: So how would we go about defeating this beast? Is 1704 01:29:31,320 --> 01:29:33,920 Speaker 8: Elon going about this correctly? And President Trump? 1705 01:29:37,040 --> 01:29:38,320 Speaker 12: That's a complicated question. 1706 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:41,400 Speaker 17: And I sincerely hope the people who are who are 1707 01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 17: at the tip of the spear in terms of White 1708 01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 17: House policy really know what they're doing, because we are 1709 01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:52,599 Speaker 17: conducting open heart surgery on the body of the entire 1710 01:29:52,680 --> 01:29:56,720 Speaker 17: American Empire right now, and I'm not fully sure that 1711 01:29:56,760 --> 01:30:00,400 Speaker 17: the folks who are doing that open heart surgery fully 1712 01:30:00,520 --> 01:30:03,640 Speaker 17: understand the anatomy of the body they are operating on. 1713 01:30:04,800 --> 01:30:07,679 Speaker 17: You know, I have I have, you know, oftentimes for 1714 01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:09,920 Speaker 17: for the past several years, when I crusade on this, 1715 01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:14,400 Speaker 17: people hear what I'm saying and say, okay, well, we 1716 01:30:14,439 --> 01:30:17,320 Speaker 17: need to eliminate this entirely. This thing is so corrupt 1717 01:30:17,360 --> 01:30:20,559 Speaker 17: and evil. And it is corrupt and evil. The issue 1718 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:23,760 Speaker 17: is it is also it also plays a critical role 1719 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:26,479 Speaker 17: in projecting US influence around the world. 1720 01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:28,240 Speaker 12: And you know, I. 1721 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:31,160 Speaker 17: Always say, you know, while the blob is is the 1722 01:30:31,520 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 17: key antagonist, the chief you know, villain on the other 1723 01:30:36,120 --> 01:30:39,360 Speaker 17: side of the story about how America can can can 1724 01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:43,439 Speaker 17: become great again. It also does play an indispensable role 1725 01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:46,519 Speaker 17: in securing US interests around the world. You know, I 1726 01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:52,160 Speaker 17: talk about, for example, the Milton Friedman analogy of the pencil. 1727 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:55,000 Speaker 17: You know, Milton Friedman has this, you know, very viral 1728 01:30:55,200 --> 01:30:58,759 Speaker 17: popular video that he recorded decades ago about the power 1729 01:30:58,800 --> 01:31:02,120 Speaker 17: of the free market for the creation of pencils. You 1730 01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,640 Speaker 17: know that no one person can make a pencil, and 1731 01:31:05,640 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 17: that you know America. You know, the reason we have 1732 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 17: pencils in America is because of the magic of the 1733 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:16,200 Speaker 17: market operating uh to get us you know, wood from 1734 01:31:16,280 --> 01:31:20,280 Speaker 17: trees in South America and in graph height from you know, 1735 01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:25,160 Speaker 17: mines in Argentina, and gum for the pencil eraser from 1736 01:31:25,200 --> 01:31:29,320 Speaker 17: trees in Malaysia. Well, you know what happens if, for example, 1737 01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:32,720 Speaker 17: the Malaysian government decides that they no longer want to 1738 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:36,960 Speaker 17: allow you know, US corporations or the export of you know, 1739 01:31:37,160 --> 01:31:42,280 Speaker 17: gum tree products two pencils. America would be potentially without 1740 01:31:42,320 --> 01:31:46,799 Speaker 17: pencils unless we had some capacity to influence the internal 1741 01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:48,440 Speaker 17: events of Malaysia. 1742 01:31:48,520 --> 01:31:51,080 Speaker 12: Same thing, for example, with the graphite and a pencil. 1743 01:31:51,240 --> 01:31:53,160 Speaker 17: If the if the Let's just say there's a labor 1744 01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:56,839 Speaker 17: strike in the country in South America with the graphite 1745 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:58,760 Speaker 17: minds that we used to make pencils, Well, what if 1746 01:31:58,800 --> 01:32:02,360 Speaker 17: the if the union's going strike there against American corporations 1747 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:06,519 Speaker 17: or South American corporations that are producing that graphite, Well, 1748 01:32:06,560 --> 01:32:07,560 Speaker 17: then no pencils. 1749 01:32:07,840 --> 01:32:10,040 Speaker 12: The US has perceived. 1750 01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:13,400 Speaker 17: And potentially sincerely does need a mechanism to be able 1751 01:32:13,520 --> 01:32:17,080 Speaker 17: to influence the activity of those unions or influence the 1752 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:22,160 Speaker 17: nationalization of national resource policies in foreign countries, and that 1753 01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 17: sometimes involves dirty work infiltrating those unions putting pressure on 1754 01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 17: foreign governments. But the problem is is this license to 1755 01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 17: do dirty work has become completely unchecked, especially a USAID 1756 01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:38,040 Speaker 17: where it doesn't even require a presidential finding to do 1757 01:32:38,439 --> 01:32:42,720 Speaker 17: this covert action. And so I did not It was unseemly, 1758 01:32:43,240 --> 01:32:46,120 Speaker 17: but perhaps okay when this was being done to protect 1759 01:32:46,240 --> 01:32:50,040 Speaker 17: US interests. But when USAID began to be weaponized against 1760 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:55,640 Speaker 17: sitting presidents beginning in twenty sixteen, that's really when the 1761 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:57,880 Speaker 17: bets are off. Because the whole purpose of having an 1762 01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,560 Speaker 17: American empire is for the benefit of the people of 1763 01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:04,320 Speaker 17: the American homeland. If the foreign policy establishment controls the 1764 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:07,040 Speaker 17: affairs of the American homeland too. Then we don't even 1765 01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:11,559 Speaker 17: have a democracy. We have a blobocracy, and we have 1766 01:33:11,640 --> 01:33:14,439 Speaker 17: no control over our own internal affairs. We're not even 1767 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:15,880 Speaker 17: setting our own foreign policy at that. 1768 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:19,280 Speaker 8: Point, Mike, please stay right there.

Okay, everybody, welcome back. We 1815 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:15,040 Speaker 8: have a serious challenge in front of us. We have 1816 01:36:15,120 --> 01:36:18,080 Speaker 8: the USAID fight, we have the doche fight, we have 1817 01:36:18,840 --> 01:36:23,920 Speaker 8: this funding issue in front of us. Mike Benz, Mike Benz, 1818 01:36:23,960 --> 01:36:25,599 Speaker 8: if you were to say one two three, we only 1819 01:36:25,600 --> 01:36:27,439 Speaker 8: have four minutes remaining, one two three, what are the 1820 01:36:27,439 --> 01:36:30,400 Speaker 8: one two three action items on how we should finalize 1821 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:32,920 Speaker 8: this USAID situation in front of us. 1822 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:37,320 Speaker 17: Number one, shut down the agency and move it into 1823 01:36:37,560 --> 01:36:40,480 Speaker 17: a branch of the government that goes through the traditional 1824 01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:44,559 Speaker 17: oversight process. So, for example, I think this plan to 1825 01:36:44,840 --> 01:36:47,360 Speaker 17: shut down US eight and tucka understate. 1826 01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 12: It is a very interesting one. 1827 01:36:50,360 --> 01:36:52,840 Speaker 17: I'm not sure if that's ultimately the best place for it, 1828 01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:58,520 Speaker 17: but as an intronim matter, I think it's potentially potentially 1829 01:36:58,520 --> 01:37:02,719 Speaker 17: the right move. But what's what's really what's really important 1830 01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:07,080 Speaker 17: is is it's you know, and I say this, you 1831 01:37:07,080 --> 01:37:09,040 Speaker 17: know time and time against you know for the past 1832 01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:11,880 Speaker 17: week and a half since this saga has been playing out. 1833 01:37:11,920 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 17: But simply ending USAID as an organization does not end 1834 01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:22,040 Speaker 17: USAID as a function. If if USAID grants and contracts 1835 01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:26,320 Speaker 17: and operational structuring remained the same, but the organ but 1836 01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:29,360 Speaker 17: headquarters simply shut down and moved over to State, well 1837 01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:34,479 Speaker 17: state just inherits a USAID herpes infection, it simply will 1838 01:37:34,560 --> 01:37:38,760 Speaker 17: will have the same problems that USAID had if that 1839 01:37:38,920 --> 01:37:42,519 Speaker 17: structuring fundamentally remains. This is the same reason there really 1840 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:45,120 Speaker 17: wouldn't be much change in the CIA if you simply 1841 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:49,719 Speaker 17: shut down Langley and moved CIA to be directly under state. 1842 01:37:50,040 --> 01:37:52,479 Speaker 17: In fact, this was the original plan in nineteen forty 1843 01:37:52,520 --> 01:37:56,639 Speaker 17: eight for the CIA. George Kennon, who authored the National 1844 01:37:56,640 --> 01:38:00,760 Speaker 17: Security Council tend Dash to Plausible Deniability DOT, which gives 1845 01:38:00,760 --> 01:38:04,799 Speaker 17: the CIA it's private cloak for all of its covered 1846 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:08,719 Speaker 17: action work. George Kennon, three months before he penned that doctrine, 1847 01:38:08,760 --> 01:38:13,240 Speaker 17: initially wanted the CIA Operations Division to operate directly at 1848 01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:17,080 Speaker 17: State under what he called the Bureau of Political Warfare. 1849 01:38:17,640 --> 01:38:19,559 Speaker 17: You can read the nineteen forty eight memo called the 1850 01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:23,559 Speaker 17: Inauguration of Organized Political Warfare where he goes over that 1851 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:26,320 Speaker 17: exact structure. But the fact is the CI would still 1852 01:38:26,360 --> 01:38:29,920 Speaker 17: be doing CIA work, it would just be warehouse within State. 1853 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:35,080 Speaker 17: And right now USAID is about to undergo that exact process. 1854 01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:35,280 Speaker 21: Now. 1855 01:38:35,320 --> 01:38:39,960 Speaker 17: The nice thing is is because because State works very 1856 01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:44,200 Speaker 17: closely with the White House National Security Council, and there 1857 01:38:44,240 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 17: is a tremendous amount of constant communication and oversight between 1858 01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:52,920 Speaker 17: White House and State, in theory, it will be much 1859 01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:56,800 Speaker 17: easier to catch the malfeasance at State than it was 1860 01:38:56,920 --> 01:39:01,720 Speaker 17: a USAID. But the problem is is everybody's everybody in 1861 01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:04,439 Speaker 17: Washington is in on the take at USAID. You know, 1862 01:39:04,479 --> 01:39:07,720 Speaker 17: this is a bigger problem than Democrats and Republicans. You know, 1863 01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:12,240 Speaker 17: as I mentioned, a huge portion of the of the 1864 01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:19,040 Speaker 17: Republican Congress is directly or indirectly, whether personally or their 1865 01:39:19,080 --> 01:39:25,400 Speaker 17: constituents or their donors are dependent on either USAID funding 1866 01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:31,320 Speaker 17: directly or USAID covert influence work to support their activities. 1867 01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:34,320 Speaker 17: I'll give you a great example. Rex Tillerson was the 1868 01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 17: chairman of ex On Mobile for the first few years 1869 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:41,480 Speaker 17: of the Trump administration. Exon Mobil has been a stalwart 1870 01:39:41,840 --> 01:39:45,720 Speaker 17: donor to the Republican Party for decades. Well, you know 1871 01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:49,519 Speaker 17: who was Victoria Neulan standing in front of when she 1872 01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:52,439 Speaker 17: made that speech that I referenced in December twenty thirteen 1873 01:39:52,479 --> 01:39:55,639 Speaker 17: about all the billions of dollars USAID had pumped into 1874 01:39:55,680 --> 01:39:58,479 Speaker 17: the rent of riots in Ukraine. In twenty fourteen, when 1875 01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:01,880 Speaker 17: she made that speech about USAID's funding of the rent 1876 01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:05,760 Speaker 17: to riots, she was at a sponsored event by egx 1877 01:40:05,840 --> 01:40:10,439 Speaker 17: On Mobile and Chevron. The literal signs for the eggs 1878 01:40:10,760 --> 01:40:13,760 Speaker 17: and Chevron's sponsors were behind Victoria Newland when she said it. 1879 01:40:14,120 --> 01:40:17,160 Speaker 17: Which is to say that it's not just the direct 1880 01:40:17,240 --> 01:40:20,120 Speaker 17: USAID folks in the Republican Party who are going to 1881 01:40:20,160 --> 01:40:22,960 Speaker 17: push back on the attempt to cut these grants while 1882 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:24,760 Speaker 17: they're at state. It's not just going to be the 1883 01:40:24,840 --> 01:40:27,439 Speaker 17: Liz Cheney types. Liz Cheney worked at us AID. It's 1884 01:40:27,479 --> 01:40:29,479 Speaker 17: not just going to be the Bill Crystal types. Bill 1885 01:40:29,520 --> 01:40:32,040 Speaker 17: Crystal's a part of an organization that gets millions from 1886 01:40:32,080 --> 01:40:35,439 Speaker 17: the USAID. But it's going to be key donors to 1887 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:38,840 Speaker 17: the Republican Party who're going to want to keep these 1888 01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:42,479 Speaker 17: grants and contracts and covert operations flowing. And there's going 1889 01:40:42,520 --> 01:40:45,799 Speaker 17: to need to be a very difficult conversation by highly 1890 01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:51,599 Speaker 17: informed Trump world foreign policy architects about how to make 1891 01:40:51,640 --> 01:40:56,360 Speaker 17: American state craft more consistent with American norms and values 1892 01:40:56,600 --> 01:40:57,559 Speaker 17: in the years of ha Very. 1893 01:40:57,479 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Good, Mike, that was terrific. We have to be on again. 1894 01:41:00,040 --> 01:41:02,800 Speaker 8: I mean we barely touch the surface here, but thank you, Mike. 1895 01:41:02,920 --> 01:41:04,479 Speaker 1: We learned a lot. We really appreciate it. 1896 01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:06,000 Speaker 12: Thanks Charlie. 1897 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:10,360 Speaker 8: Okay, tonight we have Freedom Night in America with Cliff 1898 01:41:10,360 --> 01:41:13,960 Speaker 8: and Stewart connectedly looking forward to that.
