1
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: On this episode of News World, we have a really

2
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: fascinating series of questions and comments from the members of

3
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: our inner circle. I think you're going to find it

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: very fascinating, and you're going to find we cover the

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: waterfront a wide range of issues and topics. I have

6
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: to say, this is one of those weeks where there

7
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: are so many different things going on that's a little

8
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: hard to focus on now. My personal favorite was the

9
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: announcement that Health and Human Services in their annual budget report,

10
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 1: had given up on the word mother and instead had

11
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: decided they be referred to as birthing people, which struck

12
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: me at least, and I'm a curiously at your actions

13
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: as somewhere nuts and you can't make this stuff up.

14
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: But when he was pushed about it, the Secretary of

15
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: Health and Human Services, a former congressman, to Sarah, couldn't

16
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: defend it, didn't try to defend it, knew that it

17
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,839
Speaker 1: was sort of goofy, but that it's what the left wanted.

18
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 1: And I actually have asked several of our researchers to

19
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:27,680
Speaker 1: pull together the background various academic papers on why it's

20
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: important that we not feminize being a mother and instead

21
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 1: that a mother be a gender neutral term like birthing persons. Now,

22
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: I think this is politically insane for the Democrats. I'm

23
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: going to raise the question, once we get all of

24
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: our research done, do they really want to change mother's

25
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: day to birthing person's day? They really think this is

26
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: where the American people are. But it's just part of

27
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: a pattern. It's the same pattern which has them, in

28
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: a very very dangerous way trying to brainwash the US military.

29
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: And this is one that isn't just funny. This is

30
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: a real threat to our national survival. And all of

31
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: you should look at what the Biden, Pelosi, Schumer harrass

32
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: team is trying to do, because it is going to

33
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 1: tear the military apart. I can't imagine a more dangerous

34
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,519
Speaker 1: pattern than to have a country as big as ours,

35
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: as central as ours, faced with leadership that has no

36
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: clue how much damage they're doing to the morale and

37
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: the unit integrity and the commitment of the young men

38
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: and women who they are putting through this sort of

39
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: brainwashing process. It's really, I think, very very dangerous. I sense,

40
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: and I'll be curiously if you agree that the momentum

41
00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: towards an ultra left America has slowed downside that they're

42
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: beginning to find, not just with Cenator or Mansion from

43
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: West Virginia, but with a number of House and seven members.

44
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: They're beginning to run into sort of the limits of

45
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: how far they can take the country on spending, on

46
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: centralized control on a whole range of issues. So I

47
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: think that's likely to lead in the next few months

48
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: to some significant changes. I just sent out this morning,

49
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy's report to the Republican House members. They've been

50
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: gone for three weeks. This is all part of a

51
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: ropodope strategy by Pelosi to just keep them away. I mean,

52
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: it's very hard to plot and to gain momentum and

53
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: to talk with each other if you're sent home for

54
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 1: three weeks at a time. And this is a deliberate

55
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: strategy by the Democrats, which I think will blow up

56
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: on them. But McCarthy's reaction was to write a very

57
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: good paper on what's happening, what we have to do.

58
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy's I think very largely correct interpretation where we are.

59
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: I don't know which was more cringeworthy watching Kamala Harris

60
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: laugh as she tried to explain that while she hadn't

61
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 1: been to the border with Mexico and Guatemala, she hadn't

62
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 1: been to the border with Europe either. You have to

63
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: wonder how kind of San Francisco cuckoo comes up with

64
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 1: this stuff. But I think more cringeworthy and more scary, frankly,

65
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: was Biden's performance in Europe when three times in a

66
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: row he got Libya wrong and confused Libya with Syria,

67
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: and I think he began to embarrass the Europeans who

68
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: were there. And then immediately after Boris Johnson had introduced

69
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: the President of South Africa, you had President Biden reintroduced

70
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 1: a guy who's just been introduced, and you had all

71
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: of the various president and prime ministers, all of them

72
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: are laughing at the American president because he's still clearly

73
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: out of it. I mean, didn't know what he was

74
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 1: talking about. Whether that's because there was too much travel,

75
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: not enough rest, whether it's because he just doesn't pay

76
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: any attention, or whether it's because you know, he thinks

77
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. He's already president, so that he screws up,

78
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 1: nothing's going to change. But I thought it was among

79
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 1: the worst performances by a brand new American president. Remember,

80
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,400
Speaker 1: this is your moment to shine on the stage, to

81
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: prove you know what you're doing, to go out there

82
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: and make an impact. Joe Biden is here and he's

83
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: going to fix things. Well. It was kind of like

84
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 1: Joe Biden was on a retirement home tour of Europe.

85
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: I think it was frightening. A good friend of mine

86
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: who has ties very high and some European countries, said

87
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 1: that the prime minister of one of the countries said

88
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:01,239
Speaker 1: to him that they found Biden's performance genuinely frightening because

89
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: it was hard to believe that an American president could

90
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: be much out of touch with reality. I think on

91
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: the domestic side, the only real question of my mind

92
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: is whether the coming inflation is a temporary process of

93
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 1: catching up because there's too much money in the system

94
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: and we're going to have to just sort of absorb it.

95
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: Who should lead to four or five six percent inflation

96
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: but for a brief period, or whether, in fact, with

97
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: the sheer volume of cash, you're beginning to get a

98
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: real inflationary spiral. I don't know which yet. I have

99
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: the bias of my childhood means I got elected to

100
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 1: Congress as Jimmy Carter was destroying the currency, and so

101
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 1: my first bias would be that these guys don't know

102
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 1: what they're doing, and that they're likely to end up

103
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: because they're so desperate to spend money, that they're likely

104
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: to end up creating dramatically more inflation. But that may

105
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: not be the case. I think I certainly wouldn't urge

106
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: anyone to invest based on a guaranteed wave of infliction.

107
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: It's very possible it may happen, and certainly at the

108
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: present time there seemed to be some pretty dangerous indicators

109
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: that's coming down the road. On the Republican side, I

110
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: think we continue to expand. I don't have any You've

111
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 1: noticed that we had three sheriffs who switched parties and

112
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: became Republican. In the last couple of weeks, we've had

113
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: several state legislators who switched parties and become Republicans. There's

114
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 1: a nice, healthy, steady growth rate towards the GOP. The

115
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: election in Virginia is going to be a big deal.

116
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: The Republicans have nominated and Glenn Yuncan, a very very

117
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: good business leader who had been the co leader of

118
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: the Carlisle Group, which is the most successful business investing

119
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 1: group in Washington, DC. He's attractive, he's relatively young. He's

120
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: more a couple of contrast with what we're getting out

121
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: of Terry Mcculloffan look, mcculloff's a good guy. I've known

122
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,679
Speaker 1: McCullough for years. He tells great stories. He's done virtually

123
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,640
Speaker 1: everything you can in politics. He wrote a book one

124
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: time about having to wrestle an alligator because the seminar

125
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,160
Speaker 1: Indians Souldian, they give money to Jimmy Carter if he

126
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: would get in the pitch with the alligators, so they did.

127
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: It's kind of a good old boy interestinger. On the

128
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: other hand, it's also a career politician. It would be

129
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: he's like a career politician, and I think this might

130
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: be a year. The margin between him is very close.

131
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: It's about two percentage ones and I think that that's

132
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: much closer than you would expect this early in a race.

133
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: And I was young. Kin has never run for office before.

134
00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: And on the other hand, you have mccull off who's

135
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: hundred percent known stay wide. So that's a race to

136
00:08:48,800 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 1: pay attention to. Michael wants to know what's your take

137
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 1: on Joe Mansion, and do you think that there's any

138
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 1: chance of persuading him to change parties? Great questions. I

139
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: was very very close to Governor Zoe Miller, who was

140
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 1: a Mountain Democrat a lot like Joe Mansion, and Miller

141
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: was sickened by how radical left the Democratic Caucus was.

142
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: Actually invited me over to breakfast one morning. He wanted

143
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: me to know that all those years when I would

144
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 1: come home and report on how bad the Democrats in

145
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: Washington were, he never believed me. But then now that

146
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 1: he was there, he was much worse than I had said.

147
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: He just wanted to apologize. And we had a great

148
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: friendship going back to nineteen sixty four when he was

149
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: a young, ambitious state legislator and I was managing my

150
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: first campaign. So we'd had a great friendship. And I

151
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 1: asked him one day, I said, look, you no longer

152
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: caucus with him, you don't go to their meetings. Why

153
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: don't you switch? And he said, you know, the Doncaty

154
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: Party was very good to me, and it basically fed

155
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: my family for my whole life, and I'm just not

156
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,719
Speaker 1: going to desert it. And it was just sort of

157
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 1: a deep personal feeling on Miller's parton I don't know

158
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 1: if that's where Mansion's coming from. Miller was a marine

159
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 1: and a very tough guy. A Mansion was a football

160
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 1: player in high school and college, a star athlete. Mansion's

161
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: big physically, Miller was not. I've always thought with Joe.

162
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 1: Joe and I went to several Right to Life masses

163
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: at the Basilica over the years and would sit next

164
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: to each other. I always had the sense that this

165
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:54,560
Speaker 1: is a guy who's very sincere and very comfortable with himself.

166
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: I think Mansion would be on many issues happy or

167
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 1: as a Republican. But on the other hand, I think

168
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: in some ways he really grew up as a Mountain Democrat,

169
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 1: and on some issues he'd be very uncomfortable. I think

170
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: what he's done has taken more courage than I would

171
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: have taken had he gone off and just switched parties,

172
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 1: because that means he gets up every morning, goes to work,

173
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 1: walks down the hall, goes past forty nine center Democrats

174
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 1: and the vice president who're all mad at him, and

175
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: goes past fifty Republicans who all kind of wish he'd

176
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 1: come over. And he's his own guy. And I think

177
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: It's a classically American story. And Marianna asks, when illegal

178
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: immigrants are bust to states across America, is it with

179
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: the state's permission? And if not, why can't the state

180
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:55,560
Speaker 1: bust them back across the border. I'm not a lawyer,

181
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: so why hunch is that under the interstate commerce clause,

182
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: states cannot set up individual permits or passports. If they

183
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: could find a legitimate public policy reason for a class

184
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: of people, they might be able to do it. But

185
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: I think that only the federal government can regulate interstate commerce.

186
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: That was a pretty big decision in the Constitutional Convention

187
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: and was a key part of our becoming a country.

188
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: Can ask what can be done to get the poor

189
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: souls sitting in jail since January sixth out? Well, I

190
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: think part of it is just to hear people to

191
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 1: pay attention and raise the question. I don't understand this

192
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: double standard where you can be on video burning down

193
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: a building, you can be beating somebody up. For example,

194
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: a retired police captain in Saint Louis was killed being

195
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: beaten up trying to protect his neighbors, and somehow that

196
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: doesn't rise to the same standard. This has become kind

197
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:07,800
Speaker 1: of very very political and very much manipulated by the

198
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: left wing judiciary and the left wing police in the capital.

199
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: I am told I don't approve, but I'm told that

200
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: there is a person who offered to put up fifteen

201
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: million dollars bail and couldn't get it. Which if you

202
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: remember that Kamala Harris was raising money to help bail

203
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: out people in Minneapolis while there were real riots underway,

204
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: it makes you wonder about the huge double standard. Charles

205
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: wants to know if you think that the Southern District

206
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 1: of New York will time their tax indictment of Trump

207
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: to run at the same time that the Arizona audits

208
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:52,560
Speaker 1: come out. I think it's unlikely. And I think that

209
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: if you have a prosecutor who knows what he or

210
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 1: she is doing, and they get to go into a

211
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 1: grand jury and they get to present their side of

212
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: the case, I remember, that's all their indictment is. That

213
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: means that the prosecutors come in and has given you

214
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 1: their version. So generally speaking, you can indict. Somebody once

215
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: said you could indict a large hel just because the

216
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: grand jury is going to listen to the prosecutor. Now

217
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: where the balance shifts of course is when you get

218
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: into the court and now it's a petit jury, not

219
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: a grand jury, and now the burden shifts to beyond

220
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: reasonable doubt. And most good prosecutors are very careful not

221
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: to carry their case beyond reasonable doubt because they know

222
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 1: they'll lose it. Then they look foolish. I can also

223
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: tell you that you get into these gigantic complex tax

224
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: cases where you have a guy like Trump who probably

225
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: had I don't know, thirty fifty one hundred different companies

226
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: all intertwined, and they had various sundry partnerships and cross contracts.

227
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:13,760
Speaker 1: So with those things, just walking the jury through them

228
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: can be a nightmare. So we'll be anesting to watch.

229
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: My guess is in the end Trump will be fine.

230
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: He's been doing this for a lifetime. You know, this

231
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: is not a guy who bats down. It's not a

232
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 1: guy who gives up, and it's not a guy who

233
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: is stupid. He didn't make all that money, all those

234
00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: billions of dollars were being stupid. Jane listens to Neet's

235
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: World and she has a question regarding your podcast interview

236
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: with Wah Wah New, which she found fascinating. She asked

237
00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 1: when nations like Burma gained independence from Britain and given

238
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: the absolutely horrific brutal attacks against fellow humans, wouldn't it

239
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 1: have been better for Burma to remain a colonial nation

240
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 1: under Britain and quote managed edge until it had some

241
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 1: sort of true democracy. You know, I think that's a

242
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: great question to love and have a beer in debate.

243
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: But the premise of it that getting the right education

244
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:28,320
Speaker 1: leads to civilization was so tragically destroyed by the Nazi Germans,

245
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 1: who had arguably the best educated country in Europe, and

246
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: they produced a nightmare of unending proportions. And so you

247
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: really come down to whether or not you agree with

248
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: our founding fathers that we are endowed by our creator

249
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: with certain unalienable rights, among which our life, liberty in

250
00:16:54,520 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 1: the pursuit of happiness. And if we do then you

251
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: have to take the risk. People will make mistakes, but

252
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,919
Speaker 1: it will be their mistakes. They will have problems, but

253
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: it will be their problems, and in a sense, that's

254
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:30,760
Speaker 1: what freedom's all about. Yeah, Nude, I listened to your

255
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: podcast back when COVID started, and you had a very

256
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: interesting series interviewing doctors. I'm curious if you might revisit

257
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: those topics and see what developments have converred. I'm glad

258
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: you raised that because I actually think we had a

259
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: package the interviews we did back then and sort of

260
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 1: do a remembering COVID series because I remember that we

261
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 1: had fouc You on and he was just completely wrong.

262
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 1: So I think there'll be a lot we'd learn from

263
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: going back and listening to what the so called experts

264
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: told us. This is really a gigantic mess. People don't

265
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: understand how big a message is because we're all so tired.

266
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: We're also drowning in the day to day stuff. But

267
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: I think one study suggested we may have lost as

268
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: much as one half of all the money that was

269
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 1: spent on stimulus may have been stolen one half in California.

270
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: Long that might be fifty billion dollars. Well, nobody's done

271
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: any kind of serious look at this stuff. We've clearly

272
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: had a scientists who were playing political science. They weren't

273
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,680
Speaker 1: playing biological science. So there's a lot there to be investigated.

274
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: You clearly had some states that were just killing machines.

275
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: I mean, what Cuomo did to the senior citizens in

276
00:18:57,119 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: New York is just extraordinary and there's a fair chance

277
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: to get away with it. I am in Collier County, Florida,

278
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: which is considered conservative, and our school board just passed

279
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 1: a very woke LA books. They say they don't see

280
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: any CRT in them. I looked at the books myself.

281
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: I saw quite a bit. So at first I think

282
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 1: they don't know what it is, but then I think

283
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: they want it. So anyway, now, when I heard that

284
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: a school district in New Jersey just decided to do

285
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: away with holiday names on their school calendar, I get nervous.

286
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 1: Is this going to trickle down here? I know people say, well,

287
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: you've got to vote these guys off the board. Then

288
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: we do, but they say all the right things, and

289
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: then they get up there and then they vote another way.

290
00:19:55,160 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: I'm nervous. You should be nervous, and you should keep

291
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 1: defeating them to you get to people who keep their word.

292
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: It's not an easy solution, but winning the American Revolution

293
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 1: wasn't that easy either, And I think it's appalling how

294
00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 1: bad the corruption mentally of the entire education establishment, including

295
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,919
Speaker 1: many of the school board members. So I think you

296
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,239
Speaker 1: simply have to take them head on. There have been

297
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 1: a number of elections recently where the pro American side

298
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: is won with seventy percent or more and the anti

299
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 1: American left has lost pretty decisively. So I think it

300
00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: is possible. Certain the gooke pushed for an end to

301
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: the inflation tax by introducing and interdaxing capital gains for

302
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: inflation bill help. That makes sense. Yeah, that makes sense,

303
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,120
Speaker 1: And it would also make sense to tie that directly

304
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: to your four oh one K and your other retirement funds.

305
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: So part of what happened in the nineteen sixties and

306
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: early nineteen seventies was as people got pushed up by inflation,

307
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: they were pushed into higher and higher tax brackets, and

308
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, middle class people found they couldn't

309
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,600
