00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: what do you say we get going?

8
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,319
Speaker 2: We're going to break down a whole bunch of big

9
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 2: stories that are happening.

10
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 1: And I have a question for you this hour. And

11
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: the question that I have for you is.

12
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: Are you spending more on Christmas or less on Christmas?

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: I don't mean that to mean I can't afford this stuff.

14
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 2: I mean are you feeling like you're more in the

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 2: spirit of the season than maybe you were in the

16
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,519
Speaker 2: last couple of years. So certainly you can take it

17
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: in any direction you want, and that's certainly something that

18
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 2: is that is hugely important. So yeah, that's that's the

19
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: question that I've got for you. Are you spend a

20
00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 2: little bit more you spend less?

21
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 1: Just about this? You can take it any place you

22
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: want to go. I want to.

23
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 2: Give you a perfect example for why we should every

24
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,760
Speaker 2: day when we wake up, put our knees on the

25
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: floor and kiss, kiss, kiss the floor that you're doing

26
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 2: that because we are so lucky to be Americans. We

27
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: are so blessed to be Americans. Imagine all the times

28
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 2: that you could have possibly been alive, and you're alive now.

29
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: I'm telling you, right now, folks, I would not want

30
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: to be in any other place with any other group

31
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: of people than right here in the good old US

32
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: of A. And so let me go to cut number two.

33
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: This is a guy named Chris Mins. He was talking

34
00:01:53,560 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: about the massacre yesterday that took place during the tack

35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 2: on the Bondai Beach, and he is I just want

36
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 2: to warn you because your blood pressure may go up

37
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: a little bit. He doesn't want to be like the

38
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 2: United States of America. He says that this is the

39
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: wrong kind of approach that we're dealing with when it

40
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: comes to the Bondai Beach massacre, and that we have

41
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 2: really no standing to tell them what's up over there

42
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: in New South Wales.

43
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,679
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna let you hear this.

44
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 2: But man, this is a guy who just cannot resist

45
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 2: the temptation to throw sand in our faces.

46
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: Cut number two, let a rip.

47
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 3: What do they want people to have the right to say?

48
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 3: What kind of ricist abuse do they want to see

49
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: or be able to luefully say on the straits of Cdney.

50
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 3: I recognize, and I'm fully said from the beginning that

51
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 3: we don't have to sign freedom of spitch lows to

52
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 3: have in the United States, and the reason for that

53
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 3: is that we want to hold to get up a

54
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 3: multicultural community and have people leave in pace free from

55
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 3: the kind of vilification and hatred that we do see

56
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 3: around the world.

57
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 2: Is he kidding? Is he hold on a minute, multiculturalism

58
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 2: and all this sort of stuff. Well, then explain to

59
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: me how Chris Min's from Australia is sitting back here

60
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 2: and saying something.

61
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: Like, well, we want we don't want.

62
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 2: People to have the right to say what they want,

63
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 2: and we're going to take away their guns for good

64
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 2: measure and all of that sort of stuff.

65
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, no no.

66
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 2: This guy is not ready for prime time. This guy

67
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: went out of his way to insult the American people.

68
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: I thought we were great allies of Australia. I thought

69
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: the auks A deal was coming to go, it was

70
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: going to be perfect, it was going to be wonderful.

71
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: But why is.

72
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: It that they have to always look to the United States,

73
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: which had nothing to do with the massacre at Bondi Beach.

74
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 2: Why do they look to the United States and say

75
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: terrible things about the United States of America?

76
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: Why is that? Why anybody? Can you explain that to me?

77
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 2: We're allegedly air quotes allies. But this guy, this guy

78
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 2: has to come over here and say or he has

79
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 2: to say about us. We can't have that kind of language.

80
00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 2: We can't have you people saying these things with this

81
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: thing that they calls free speech. These folks are the people,

82
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 2: if you remember, just sendo Ardurn and the other folks

83
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: who were during a number of things, including COVID and

84
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:58,479
Speaker 2: then beyond COVID. These folks, their default position is always, always, always,

85
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 2: more t tranny, more multiculturalism.

86
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: More.

87
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 2: Look, if you come to the United States, you see

88
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: a lot of people who live in this country who

89
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,799
Speaker 2: are multicultural.

90
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to judge people by the color of

91
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: their skin.

92
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 2: I don't want to judge people by the economics that

93
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 2: they go by or things like that. I believe everybody

94
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: should have a chance to be the person that they

95
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 2: should be. But it cannot be a command and control

96
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: sort of a deal here. That is just poppy cock.

97
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 2: It is nuts. Oh oh, look at how great we are. Well,

98
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 2: what I saw at Bondi Beach was hundreds of people

99
00:05:54,880 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: terrorized by two people holding them hostage, being shooters.

100
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 1: This is disgraceful. This is awful. And you want to

101
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: know what.

102
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 2: Their dividing line is.

103
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: Wait till you hear this.

104
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: Their dividing line, the thing that we must not ever do.

105
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: I hope you're sitting down when I tell you this.

106
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: They've decided that you're not allowed to have an ISIS

107
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:36,359
Speaker 2: flag anymore anymore. Were you guys okay with ISIS flags

108
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:37,719
Speaker 2: once upon a time.

109
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: This is lunacy. This is bending over backwards so far

110
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 1: that you fall down the steps. You have to understand.

111
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 2: There are people in this country, and there are people

112
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 2: in Australia, and there are people in Europe, there are

113
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 2: people in South America. There are people in a lot

114
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 2: of different places who do not respect the right to life,

115
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 2: who do not respect the right to life and right

116
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 2: to religion. The United States of America, the terrible place

117
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: that this guy's talking about.

118
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: Our number one our number one right is.

119
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: To worship, to pray, to choose our faith, all of that,

120
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 2: and it is guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence and

121
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: in the amendments of the Constitution. These are all of

122
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: the things that are stitched together. But it is only

123
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 2: effective if you are a moral people, if you are

124
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: somebody who is moral, if you are somebody who can

125
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 2: abide by morality. And I'm not saying you impose morality

126
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: on individuals. They have a choice, they get to do

127
00:07:59,600 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 2: what they want.

128
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: I want to do.

129
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: But then this guy comes in and starts swinging and

130
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 2: winging at the United States of him.

131
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: It's absolutely unbelievable. I just I was just.

132
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 2: So offended by what he had to say about the

133
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 2: United States of America. We have nothing to do with

134
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 2: their problems there. And by the way, we have problems

135
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 2: as well. Nobody's sitting here in the United States after

136
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: something bad happens saying it's Australia's fault.

137
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,160
Speaker 1: We don't want to be like Australia.

138
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: Weird, really really weird, and and a terrible sort of take.

139
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: It is it is. It is more than annoying, all right.

140
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: So I asked a couple of moments ago, are you

141
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 2: spending more money? Are you spending more for Christmas? Are

142
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,679
Speaker 2: you are you feeling festive in the spirit and all

143
00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 2: of that sort of stuff. So let me reach out

144
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 2: to Luke in Ohio. I want to get his thoughts

145
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 2: on this. What are your thoughts on the holidays?

146
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 4: My friend?

147
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,559
Speaker 5: All right, Free Boys, nineteen twelve three. We're in the

148
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 5: Christmas spirit. Me and my wife will make around one

149
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 5: to fifteen this year. We live between sint Night and Columbus.

150
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 4: We're doing well.

151
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,360
Speaker 5: We have a mortgage, but our vehicles are paid for.

152
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 5: We're thankful. We're gonna have a very good Christmas season.

153
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 5: I don't know a ton about the economy, but we

154
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 5: do okay. And I think at the Trump gases about

155
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 5: two point thirty where I'm at, which is great. That's great.

156
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 5: Interest rates are coming down. I don't know about foreign policy,

157
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 5: but what he does is helping my bottom line every month,

158
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,440
Speaker 5: and I hope he continues in that direction.

159
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 2: That's a great call, Luke. Thank you so much for calling,

160
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 2: and bless you and your family. Man, Thanks so much,

161
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 2: and enjoy I'll enjoy Christmas. Yeah, absolutely, I mean that's

162
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 2: a that's.

163
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: A great thing. All right.

164
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 2: Let me take Kenny in Boston real quick. Kenny, welcome

165
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 2: to the show Man.

166
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,440
Speaker 4: Your show is awesome. I love your rapport with the

167
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 4: callers mess you. First of all, I just want to

168
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 4: say something. The other gentleman's having a good year. I'm

169
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 4: glad to him. But there's a lot of people out

170
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 4: down on their luck. And don't be embarrassed. There's plenty

171
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 4: of places that have Christmas dinner, and you can go

172
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 4: there and set up and don't be embarrassed, and don't

173
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 4: let me find out you're a combat veteran. You're afraid

174
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 4: to have that free dinner. You walk in there first

175
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 4: with your chest out, my man, and just enjoyed. But

176
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 4: the thing is, I just like to say, this country

177
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 4: is being totally invaded by the whole world is coming here.

178
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 4: It's like a big piece of rock candy. All different

179
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 4: types of scams are being run. You have to realize

180
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 4: when more people come in the country, these congressional districts

181
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 4: get bigger and bigger, or they just create new congressional

182
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 4: districts and they create electoral votes for the left wing

183
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 4: candidates through immigration, legal and illegal. The Democratic Party has

184
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 4: been rebuilt into a total wing party. I don't see

185
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 4: any hope for that party anymore because.

186
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 6: They basically represent communists, social quo, anti Americanism, and I

187
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,960
Speaker 6: really personally believe that a lot of things have to

188
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 6: be done.

189
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 4: And I just want to let you know that there

190
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 4: are some people pushing for PAPYU Caanan to get the

191
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 4: presidential meet the Medal of Freedom, but Pat already wanted

192
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 4: a what it's called. He was right on everything. Merry

193
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 4: Christmas and everybody have a Charlie Brown Christmas.

194
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,680
Speaker 2: All right, all right, thank you for your opining in

195
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,439
Speaker 2: that regard. We're going to get a break. I've got

196
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 2: plenty more people who want to opine on these sorts

197
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 2: of things, and I think it's a hugely important thing

198
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,480
Speaker 2: for us to remember that the reason why we have

199
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 2: this ability to worship, that we have the ability to

200
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: be the nation that we want to be, is because

201
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: of the sacrifices that have been made, especially by the

202
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 2: folks in the military.

203
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,560

00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: is that's what we need to really put first and

236
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 2: foremost in our mind. How can we do the best

237
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: possible good that we can do. And I'm so happy

238

239
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 2: it forward and help other people. And it's a really

240
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 2: important thing to do. And I really appreciate you calling

242
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 8: Well, thank you, And I just wanted to say many

243
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 8: people might not know that Birmingham, Alabama is one of

244
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,439
Speaker 8: the most giving cities in the country, and I'm very

245
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 8: proud to live here and proud of that. So thank

246
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:14,960

247
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 2: Oh it's my pleasure. Absolutely. That was fantastic because when

248
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 2: you kind of pay stuff forward to do things like that,

249
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: it's a very important thing, a very very important thing.

250
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,360
Speaker 1: Can I talk to Father Michael from Ohio. Welcome to

251
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: the show, sir, Hello.

252
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 9: Sir, Yes, hello, Brent, how are you today?

253
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 1: I'm well, thanks for checking in.

254
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 9: I have tried to shout from the rooftops from twenty

255
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 9: fifteen about President Trump because a lot of good things

256
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 9: he does just is not reported. I have the blessing

257
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 9: to give the invocation at his rally, the first Ohio

258
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 9: rally back in twenty fifteen here in Columbus. A great

259
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 9: man to meet. And he told me right to my face,

260
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 9: said Father Michael, I will get prayer back in school.

261
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 4: Now.

262
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 9: Up until that time, almost everyone had a write in

263
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 9: public school to take a time of silence or to pray.

264
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 9: But it had gotten down to where just the Muslims

265
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 9: were allowed. And you know, within three months of him

266
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 9: being president that very first term, that federal law was changed.

267
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,760
Speaker 9: I never heard a thing about it, but it was changed.

268
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 9: I got it from my kids who went to public school.

269
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 9: And I think it was great that the president from

270
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 9: the very beginning of his first term prayer and God

271
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 9: has been number one with him, regardless of what anyone

272
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 9: tries to misinterpret for our president. And that's the best

273
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 9: I can say. Have a merry Christmas. Okay, God bless

274
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 9: you and all the listeners.

275
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: And you as well. Thank you so much.

276
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 2: I really appreciate that Father Michael checking in with us.

277
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 2: The thing is, we are able to do so many

278
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 2: great things if we just put the nose to the

279
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: grindstone and if we get together we say, listen, we

280
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: want to change this, and we want it to be

281
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 2: done in an appropriate way, in a proper way.

282
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: But it has to also be most.

283
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 2: Importantly, a constitutional way, and the Constitution enshrines for us

284
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 2: these rights and liberties. We don't have to ask permission

285
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 2: to pray. We just have to do what we want

286
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 2: to do. Another great segment coming up straight ahead. Don't

287
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 2: go anywhere. I'm Brettwinnable in for Clay and Buck. Very

288
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 2: happy to be with each and every one of you,

289
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 2: and I'm telling you this is going to be a

290
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 2: wonderful Christmas. We all know what we've seen, but we

291
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 2: also know what we're gonna see in the next number

292
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 2: of weeks. Watch and learn on Brettwitter.

293
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 10: President announced further changes to immigration policy. He halted diversity visas.

294
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,159
Speaker 10: There are now thirty nine countries on this travel banner

295
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 10: restricted list. This is in addition to all the deportations

296
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 10: and replications of asylum. The business community has made clear

297
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 10: that the constant changes make it hard for them to plan,

298
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 10: particularly in the small business category. They're concerned about a

299
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 10: labor shortage, and we've seen the US workforce lose more

300
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 10: than a one million foreign born workers in the past year.

301
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 10: Are you hearing those concerns from the business community.

302
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 11: Actually, it's the opposite, so in the sense that native

303
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 11: born workers are up more than two million. And so

304
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 11: what we've seen is that as foreign born workers and

305
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 11: a lot of them don't forget, we're illegal immigrants that

306
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 11: have been deported, that when foreign born workers depart, then

307
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,560
Speaker 11: it creates jobs for people who are native born. The

308
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,959
Speaker 11: interesting thing, too, which I'd like to remind everybody, is

309
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 11: that native born Americans aren't necessarily racially distinct at all,

310
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 11: and so the majority of the native born jobs that

311
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 11: have been created over the last year are Hispanic Americans.

312
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 11: It's just basically taking folks that are legally in the

313
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 11: country and getting the jobs to them, is what we

314
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 11: see in the data.

315
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 10: Well, the Associated General Contractors of America didn't say they're

316
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 10: replacing those workers easily. They're saying they're having a hard

317
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 10: time doing that and issued a statement saying it's a

318
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 10: significant challenge, urging the administration to look at ways to

319
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 10: expand the construction workforce and allow more people to lawfully

320
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 10: enter the country.

321
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 3: Right.

322
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 11: Well, one of the things we're saying this is exactly

323
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 11: how markets work.

324
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 4: Right.

325
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 11: So construction workers their salaries this year have gone up

326
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 11: by three three hundred dollars on average according to the

327
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 11: latest report, because scarcely well. But when the price goes up,

328
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 11: then people say, oh, should I should go? And I

329
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 11: used to be a constructive worker, there was something else.

330
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 11: I actually go back to construction work because the salaries

331
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 11: are so high, and so we're seeing a lot of

332
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 11: that go on. And so we're very bullish on construction

333
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 11: and really happy to see that wages are going way

334
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 11: back up. And so instead of having you know, basically

335
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,480
Speaker 11: illegal people come in and take jobs away from native

336
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 11: born Americans at low wages, we're seeing people redo the

337
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:20,879
Speaker 11: labor force at high wages.

338
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 10: But to be clear, from the business community, part of

339
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 10: the question is what is legal because you're changing the

340
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 10: definition and pulling back asylum from some groups. So there's

341
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 10: confusion at the constant change in policy where they'll be

342
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 10: clarity in the new year.

343
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 11: Oh, there will definitely be clarity the new year. And

344
00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 11: I think there's clarity now that what we've done is

345
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 11: that we've made it so that people are legally residents

346
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 11: of the country and legally allowed to work that they're

347
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 11: you know, basically top of the list when you're looking

348
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 11: for somebody to hire.

349
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,440
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm back here connected, then, thank you very much.

350
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 2: I'm I had a catastrophic failure here for a moment.

351
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:12,480
Speaker 2: So Kevin Hassett talking into this conversation, having this conversation,

352
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 2: doing the sort of thing that is that he's doing

353
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 2: is important because what's happening with Kevin Hassett in this

354
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 2: regard is the.

355
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: It's the trap that always happens.

356
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 2: It's the trap that always occurs when you go in

357
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 2: and you go try to do the things that you

358
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 2: need to do to make the case for stronger economies. Now,

359
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 2: if you go back to the Biden administration, the biggest

360
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 2: problem that they had with that administration was the fact

361
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 2: that they spent seven trillion dollars for nothing and we

362
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 2: got nothing for that. That's like injecting more and more

363
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 2: heroin over the course of time. Then it should if

364
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 2: you if you decide you're going to put poison into

365
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 2: the system, you're going to get a poisonous response.

366
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: And so when that happens, this is where.

367
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 2: People like Margaret Brennan and all these other sort of

368
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 2: folks are out there and they're sitting back and they're saying, Okay,

369
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 2: we're going to try to do a trap.

370
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 3: Now.

371
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: Kevin Hassett is an important person.

372
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 2: He is potentially going to be maybe unless it's mister

373
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: Warsh or it's going to be somebody else who's going

374
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,919
Speaker 2: to come in and be the next fed chair. What

375
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 2: I like about Kevin Hassett is the fact that we

376
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 2: have a person who might be able to advocate, not

377
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 2: just as one of these elites who are on the

378
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,879
Speaker 2: you know, who are on the spectrum and all this

379
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: sort of stuff. What we have is somebody who understands

380
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 2: what people care about, how the economy is supposed to work,

381
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 2: how the economy is supposed to function, effects not just

382
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,679
Speaker 2: hedge funders, not just the people that are out there

383
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 2: doing the things that they're doing. What we have in

384
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 2: place in this moment is something that is unbelievable. It

385
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 2: is a potential for a guy who's going to come

386
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 2: in and advocate for what an economy should look like,

387
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 2: for economy should function, and in that part of the

388
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 2: entire part that's massive. When is the last time you

389
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 2: saw a federal Reserve person, potentially if he gets appointed

390
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 2: to that position after j. Powell goes, when's the last

391
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 2: time you saw somebody come in and say, let me

392
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: talk about the people who are suffering, let me talk

393
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 2: about the people who have small businesses and all those

394
00:22:55,840 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: sorts of things. This is unprecedent, did It's it's more

395
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 2: than what economics should look like. It's about the notion

396
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 2: of people's economics themselves. And so when people are are

397
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 2: out there and they're suffering, and when you see that

398
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:22,600
Speaker 2: they need this or that thing to happen, availability for credit,

399
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 2: all of that sort of stuff.

400
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 1: What did you see from.

401
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 2: Jerome Palell Jerome pal consistently it was playing games with Okay,

402
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 2: we'll just go for a quarter point or this or that.

403
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 2: It was somebody who was too afraid to make the

404
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:42,640
Speaker 2: big decisions. Donald Trump is not going to blow somebody

405
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 2: out of the position because they are in a place where, okay,

406
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: we have to get more money into this part of

407
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 2: the sector. What do you see as far as the

408
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,800
Speaker 2: eye can see, what you see is rents are going

409
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 2: way up. Other sort of things like that are are

410
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 2: becoming more expensive. And that can also be handled by

411
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:15,320
Speaker 2: by the FED. So when you look at Hassett and

412
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: when you look at him going around talking to people

413
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 2: in a calm way, not in any kind of a

414
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 2: panicked way, but in a calm way where he's talking

415
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 2: to America.

416
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: He's not talking.

417
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 2: Necessarily to Wall Street, though he does do a really

418
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 2: good job when he goes on the c NBCs and

419
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 2: those sorts of things like that. But when you look

420
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 2: at and you see his decisions that he's making to

421
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 2: try to sell, not to sell in a negative way,

422
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 2: in a crooked way, in any of that sort of stuff,

423
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 2: what you've got from him is somebody who's able to

424
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 2: look at it through the eyes of not just the consumer,

425
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 2: but the heartland. It's interesting to me to see the

426
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 2: people who want to run for office on the Democratic

427
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,919
Speaker 2: side of the isle. And you've got you've got a

428
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 2: very successful governor in Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, You've got Gavin Newsom,

429
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 2: and then of course who else have you got. You've

430
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 2: got a couple of people that are that are running

431
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: around AOC maybe wants to run whatever that is. But

432
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 2: you also have a billionaire in uh in Illinois. But

433
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 2: he is not a person who's advocating for the common man,

434
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:50,959
Speaker 2: for the small guy, for those people he is. He

435
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 2: is not advocating for the elites has it's not doing that.

436
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 2: He's doing it for the people that feel at the most,

437
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 2: the people who need to take out alone, the people

438
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 2: who need to take out alone, for their college kids,

439
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 2: for a housing remodel, for all.

440
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:10,920
Speaker 1: Of that sort of stuff.

441
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 2: That's what we've what we've got this thing uh set

442
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:21,639
Speaker 2: up as now. Unfortunately, unfortunately, you know, at the beginning

443
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: of of of time, you had this notion that whatever

444
00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: we try to force down on people, they'll just have

445
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:37,440
Speaker 2: to live with it. That's no longer the case because

446
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 2: you have in President Trump and you have in jd.

447
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 2: Vance the Vice president, you have people who are actively

448
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 2: educating and working for the middle class. It's why you

449
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 2: did everything you did with the border, It's why you

450
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 2: did everything that could have come that way. And unfortunately,

451
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 2: or maybe fortunately, maybe fortunately, we're going to see a

452
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 2: completely different picture if you end up with a Democrat

453
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 2: House and Senate, because they're gonna block and they're gonna

454
00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 2: do what needs to be done for the elites and

455
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 2: leave the rest far behind. Umbrett Winnable in for Clay
