1 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: Democrats are already launching impeachments. What Gavin Newsome making uncharacteristic mistakes. 2 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: We have all that Senator Ron Johnson and Moore coming 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: up on. I'm right, civil war is the worst thing 4 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 1: in the world. It's just the worst thing in the world, 5 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: not just our civil war. Keep in mind civil wars, 6 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: Wars that pit one citizen against another are as old 7 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 1: as time itself, and they're just heartbreaking because they're not 8 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: fought on some foreign battlefield. They're fought on your street, 9 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: in your school, in your town, women children. It's just awful. Right, 10 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 1: So I've always told you never to root for another 11 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: civil war in this country. That's a terrible thing to 12 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: root for. If you're rooting for that, let's just start 13 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: shooting and get it over with. If you're rooting for that, 14 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: I would argue you, really, they do not understand how 15 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 1: horrible it would be, how horrible the last one was. 16 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: But speaking of the last one, let's talk about it 17 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: just for a second here. When did the Civil War start? 18 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: Was it at Fort Sumter, South Carolina? I guess you 19 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: could argue that when it actually started as actually up 20 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: for debate, but Americans were divided one against another before that, 21 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: and each side thought the other side was evil and 22 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: an American and thought the other side should be snuffed 23 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: out it did. You could argue where we are right 24 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: now as a country is a cold civil war. We 25 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: want to call it that pre civil war. God forbid. 26 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: That's the last thing in the world I want to see. 27 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: But you certainly could argue that. And I am concerned, 28 00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: if I'm being honest with you, about our ability to 29 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 1: navigate where we're at and get out of it without 30 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: any bloodshed, because I don't want to see anybody get hurt, 31 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: not you, not me, not my enemies. I don't want 32 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: to see anybody hurt. I don't want to see blood death. 33 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to see it. But the reason I'm 34 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: having a hard time seeing a path forward that is 35 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: okay is because our enemy hates the country itself. It's 36 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: not as if the Democrat Party is your grandfather's Democrat Party, 37 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: JFK's Democrat Party, or even Bill Clinton's Democrat Party, where yes, 38 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: I can disagree, and we'll disagree with so many of 39 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: their ideas, but it's not a party that actually has 40 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: declared war on the country where they're trying to rule. 41 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: It that puts you in an almost impossible situation as 42 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: a nation. If I want to paint the walls of 43 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: our house green and my wife completely disagrees, she wants 44 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 1: to paint them all pink, Okay, well we've got a problem. 45 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna have to argue. We'll work it out, maybe 46 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: come to some sort of compromise. But if I want 47 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: to paint the walls green and she wants to dynamite 48 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: the house, well that's an entirely different problem, now, isn't it. 49 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: Democrats across the country, top to bottom now regularly talk 50 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: like this. 51 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: We are the world's number one bully, and we're using 52 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 2: our immense, unrifled power to rule over those who have 53 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: less power, and we're doing it with impunity. And this 54 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: sends a shocking message to the world that America is 55 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: indeed the what did they used to call the Great 56 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 2: Hand of Satan or something like that. I mean, America 57 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 2: under the Trump regime is demonstrating that that Moniker was 58 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: entirely accurate, the Great Satan. That's what we have become 59 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: in this country. 60 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: That man is not only a sitting member of Congress, 61 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: he gets re elected every two years, meaning the Democrats 62 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: in his district. They hear him say things like that 63 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: and they don't care. He is unafraid to say things 64 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 1: like that because the Democrats voting for him feel the 65 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: same way. At no point in American history could you 66 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: find either political party willing to say something like that, 67 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: even if they felt it deep down inside, because they 68 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: knew for a fact that would be a bridge too 69 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: far and they would get voted out of office. But 70 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: this has now become mainstream Democrat talk, and it's all 71 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: really about power. In the end, what they want is 72 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: to burn this country down so they can rule over 73 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: the ashes. The paraphrase. I believe that was sun Zu 74 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: who said that an evil man will burn his country 75 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: down to rule over the ashes. That's what they want. 76 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: And I want to explain something about how they look 77 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: at power, how they look at unity. For instance, the 78 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: vote Latino president went on she went on TV and 79 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 1: she said this. 80 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 3: But I think what's most important is that when they 81 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 3: see Barack Obama, people remember a time in America where 82 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 3: there was unity. They remember a time when there was calm, 83 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: when they saw that there was actual opportunity for their families. 84 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: And the contrast between the hate that the Republicans on 85 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 3: the magaside, keep pushing and someone who is very calm 86 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 3: and collect and saying, look, this has been where we 87 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 3: are in America, but we don't have to be. Remember 88 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 3: when I was president. 89 00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: Now you you've heard that before from Democrats, but was 90 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: so we were unified under Obama. We were so unified, 91 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: there was no divisiveness. We were unified. Now, of course, 92 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: every time you hear that, you scoff and you roll 93 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: your eyes, and you remember how hostile Barack Obama was 94 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: to the right. So he sent the irs after his 95 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 1: political enemies. You remember Barack Obama, Barack Obama the one 96 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: who actually sent the CIA FBI after Donald Trump. You 97 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: remember how device of how terrible he was. He created 98 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: the new racial divide in the country. Racial tensions were 99 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: almost gone. Barack Obama walked in and started picking at 100 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: those scabs. Now white people and black people hate each 101 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: other again. Its freaking terrible. So why would she say 102 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: something so ridiculous about we were unified. Well, let me 103 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: tell you why. Because when Barack Obama got elected and 104 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: they had the House, and they had the Senate, and 105 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: they had a Communist finding in the White House, they 106 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: had all the power and you had none. And for them, 107 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: that's what unity looks like. They speak about things like unity, 108 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: no divisiveness, We're unified. When they speak about things like that, 109 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: they don't mean the same thing you would mean if 110 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: you said it. When they talk about unity, what they 111 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: mean is you don't have any power. They have all 112 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: the power, and you have to do what you're told. 113 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: These are evil, evil people, and in fact, maybe it's 114 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: a good time to discuss what they will do when 115 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: they take power again. And I don't know when that 116 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: will be, God forbid. It could be twenty twenty eight, 117 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: twenty thirty, two, thirty six, forty, We could keep going 118 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: down the line. At some point in time they are 119 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: going to occupy the halls of power again. Well, you 120 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,239 Speaker 1: remember what they did under Biden's communist regime, the mass 121 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: arrest of their political opponents. Donald Trump almost killed twice, 122 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: Donald Trump charged felony after felony. District after district. They 123 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: went ape. And maybe you're thinking to yourself, my gosh, 124 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: that was evil, that was terrible. We can never let 125 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: it happen again, And that would be the correct way 126 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: of thinking. But it's really, really, really really important for 127 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: you to understand, Democrats don't regret what happened at all. 128 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: The only lesson democrats top to bottom learn from the 129 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: evil things they did under Joe Biden is that they 130 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: didn't go far enough. That's the only lesson they learned. 131 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom's staff just posted this AI video on Twitter. X. Yeah, 132 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: that would be Donald Trump, Pete hag Seth, Stephen Miller 133 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: in handcuffs crying. You think what they did before was bad? Oh, 134 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 1: they have plans for when they take power again. They're 135 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: going to take the lessons they learned and they're going 136 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: to apply them. It will be a horrifying time if 137 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: they ever come back, and of course they will one day. 138 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: And how do we get here? Well, the mass important 139 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: of foreigners is a big reason we got here. It 140 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,239 Speaker 1: just is. That's why Democrats love it so much. Importing 141 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: disloyal on patriotic foreigners imports the ultimate Democrat voting base, 142 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: because patriotic citizens don't vote Democrat. There's a reason the 143 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: Democrats in your neighborhood don't fly American flags. They hate 144 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: the country, and so where are we as a country? 145 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: There was actually a clip from today that just sums 146 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: it up perfectly. This congressman from Michigan, shre Tan Dahar. 147 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: I don't know some character from Indiana Jones. He of 148 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: course came here from India, has luxuriated in this country, 149 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: made a fortune in this country. He's now an elected 150 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: official in this country. And this foreigner got to interrogate 151 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: Christineome today, Christinome, who's been in charge of deporting foreigners. 152 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: Here's how that went. 153 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 4: I am sick of your lives. The American people are 154 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 4: sick of the lies. American people demand truth. 155 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 5: America is very happy that finally they have a president 156 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 5: in the White House that gets up every day to 157 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 5: keep them safe. 158 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 4: Madam Secretary, you're incompetence and your inability to truthfully carry 159 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 4: out your duties of Secretary of Home Land Security. If 160 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 4: you're not fired, will you resign or. 161 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 5: I will consider you're asking me to resign as an 162 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 5: endorsement of my work. Thank you very much. 163 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: Boy, doesn't that just perfectly sum up where we are 164 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: in Western civilization? A foreigner we allowed to come to 165 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 1: our country, reside in our country, eventually gave citizenship, got 166 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: him elected in our country, now sits and interrogates the 167 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: DHS secretary, asking her to resign. For what for the 168 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: crime of deporting foreigners. And maybe the saddest part of 169 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: this entire thing is this, that's the Democrat Party. The 170 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: only hope we have, I guess I should say at 171 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: opposing them is the GOP. And these are the kinds 172 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: of people the GOP elects. Do you think he would 173 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 1: be a good president? Yeah? I do. 174 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 6: I have to tell you, I think I'm very biased 175 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 6: towards governors. I think governors make the best presidents. 176 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: I just do. 177 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 6: I think for this very reason, we always see that 178 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 6: potholes aren't partisan. As governors, we actually have to accomplish stuff. 179 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: Pathetic. We are at a place now, we're the wealthiest, 180 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: most powerful man on the planet. Can't go out in public. 181 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 5: We did something extremely ordinary like go to Target or CBS. 182 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: I can't go to thanks with us the general public, because. 183 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 7: I there there's an immediate Can I have a selfie 184 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 7: line that forms? In these days, particularly in light of 185 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 7: Charlie Cook's motor there are serious security issues. 186 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: It's not that I don't want to. I simply count. 187 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: Has Charlie's murder changed how you do things? 188 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 5: Or were you already locked down pretty full before that? 189 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 7: It certainly reinforced the severity of the situation where life 190 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 7: is on a hardcore mode. You make one mistake and 191 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 7: you're dead. It only takes one mistake. 192 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: Why are we here. It's not the right, it's not Republicans, 193 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: it's not patriotic citizens. We're here because Democrats are sold 194 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: as evil demons who believe they're fighting a righteous revolution, 195 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 1: and they will kill on behalf of the revolution, and 196 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 1: they will kill in the large part because influential democrats 197 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: on TV social media tell them to. 198 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 8: I challenge somebody to go and find a clip of 199 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 8: a Democrat invoking violence. 200 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: Let's extinguish for good. 201 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 9: I will go and take Trump out to night. 202 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 10: We're gonna fight it in the courts.

We'll be back. 262 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 14: The Government Accountability Office just released a shocking interim report 263 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 14: on a widespread fraud within Obamacare. Let me explain what's 264 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 14: going on during the pandemic. The previous administration took a 265 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 14: variety of actions that weakened crucial safeguards. For example, they 266 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 14: eliminated common sense income verifications, which are essential to making 267 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 14: sure people actually qualify for the program. They also expanded 268 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 14: the number of people who got completely free health insurance 269 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 14: via what are called zero dollar premium plans, which is 270 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 14: a huge problem because if you don't pay anything for 271 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 14: a plan, you might forget that you have it, or 272 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 14: you may be enrolled in it by an unscrupulous insurance 273 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 14: broker without your knowledge. 274 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,119 Speaker 1: We've uncovered four point. 275 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 15: Four million improper enrollments, including roughly one point six million 276 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 15: individuals who were enrolled in both Medicaid and an Obamacare 277 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 15: plan in twenty twenty four, which taxpayers, by the way, 278 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 15: are put in the bill. 279 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 14: In both of these cases, you get double insured. 280 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:05,120 Speaker 1: You're not paying for eath. I'm so confused. I don't 281 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: understand thievery and how it works. I bet Senator Ron 282 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: Johnson's about to educate us though. Joining me now, great 283 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: Senator from the state of Wisconsin, Senator Ron JOHNSONI okay, Senator, 284 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: I don't even understand how you make money on this. 285 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: I know you're much more knowledgeable about pretty much everything 286 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: than I am. How do you make money as a 287 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: scammer by enrolling people who don't use the answer? How 288 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: does this work? 289 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 12: So again, when Democrats passed the enhanced premiums, they exempted 290 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 12: anybody making one hundred and fifty percent of pottery liner 291 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 12: below from paying anything whatsoever. So you have literally millions 292 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 12: of zero premium policies out there now. Insurance brokers, the 293 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 12: unscrupulous ones, they know that. So all all they have 294 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 12: to do is get a name and some kind of 295 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 12: identifying information and they can sign people up in the plans. 296 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 12: And the bid administration stopped verifying income, stopped verifying anything. 297 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 12: You have the report that they signed up I think 298 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 12: in totally tried twenty four individuals twenty three I mean again, 299 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 12: totally fraudulent individuals. 300 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 10: Twenty three got signed up. 301 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 12: I think eighteen were still enrolled as September twenty twenty five. 302 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 12: So the broker gets the commission. The premium tax credit 303 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 12: doesn't flow to the patient, to the policy holder, It 304 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 12: flows right to the insurance company. The policy holder doesn't 305 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 12: even know they've been signed up. That's why we went 306 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 12: from around twelve million people on the exchanges before the 307 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 12: enhanced premiums, before the pandemic, to about twenty four million. 308 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 12: Paragon outfit, that public policy group thinks it's about six 309 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 12: point four million fraudulent enrollees in the Obamacare extension and 310 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 12: Obamacare exchanges. So they also ask me, it's about a 311 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 12: twenty seven billion dollars worth of fraud. And so now 312 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 12: the Democrats, we just voted on it. They wanted what 313 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 12: they call a clean extension. Sounds good extension. No, let's 314 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 12: just continue to extend this enhanced premium zero premium policies 315 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 12: and twenty seven twenty seven billion dollars worth a fraud. 316 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 12: They were happy to perpetuate that level of fraud, no 317 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 12: questions asked. 318 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 1: Okay, Senator, everyone remembers we just got done with a 319 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: long government shutdown, the longest in history, one of the 320 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: longest in history. Whatever. It was a really long time, 321 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: and Democrats were pitching a fit the whole time about healthcare. 322 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: They made this kind of their messaging on it is 323 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: there some sort of link between all this and that? 324 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: What were they trying to get? 325 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 12: Well, First of all, I don't believe the shutdown was 326 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 12: about healthcare. I think the shutdown was designed to make 327 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 12: sure that the economy is not healthy, that these premiums 328 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 12: continue to skyrocket. They don't want President Trump or Republicans 329 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 12: to be able to claim any success. They want power 330 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 12: in November of twenty twenty six. This was all about 331 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 12: denying success to Republicans so they can win the election. 332 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 12: Now they used Obamacare as a pretext. But understand we're 333 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 12: talking about here. They've done a very good job at 334 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 12: convincing their allies in the media and the American public 335 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 12: that if Republicans don't vote to extend these enhanced premiums, 336 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 12: everybody's healthcare is going to skyrocket. Right, Well, first of all, 337 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 12: we're only talking about the people on the exchange again, 338 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,360 Speaker 12: twenty four million, less six about eighteen million people, more 339 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 12: than sixteen million of those people, it's not like the 340 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 12: substats go away. They just go back to Obamacare's original 341 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 12: subsidy design. But you got about one point six million 342 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 12: people that were making an over formed set of poverty 343 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 12: that under original Obombacare they didn't qualify for subseas. 344 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 10: But during the pandemic they. 345 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,919 Speaker 12: Did a lot of these people are were close retirement, 346 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 12: and so they were alluded to retirement thinking they were 347 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 12: going to get the healthcare subsidized. Now that the rugs 348 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 12: being pulled up from underneath them. So really we've got 349 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 12: a problem with about one point six million people. But 350 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 12: the Democrats want to throw a couple hundred billion dollars 351 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 12: just to continue to mask where a failure Obamacare is. 352 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 12: If your insurance premiums are going up, that's because the 353 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,439 Speaker 12: faulty design of Obamacare. 354 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 10: And but again, if you're on. 355 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 12: Medicare, Medicaid, VA employee sponsored care, what just got voted 356 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 12: on that we're not extending these substies has no impact 357 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 12: on you. It only impacts people on the exchange, and 358 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 12: the only people getting the subs is taken away about 359 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 12: one point six million people out of three hundred and 360 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 12: forty million people in this country. But again, the Democrats 361 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 12: have been very successful. If you know, when healthcare continues 362 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 12: to rise because of Obamacare's complete failure, they think they 363 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 12: can pin the blame on Republicans. 364 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: What a game. Okay, So there's there's apparently multiple bills 365 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: flying around to address this. Does the GOP have a 366 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: good one that you like? Because that's probably the one 367 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: I would like. 368 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 12: Well, my proposals, not the one we just voted on. 369 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 12: What we voted on was the chairman of the relevant committees. 370 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 12: They had their proposal. It's a step in the right direction. 371 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 12: I think we all voted for it. We knew these 372 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 12: this exercise is all going to fail. 373 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: You know. 374 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 12: My proposalho would actually address the problem the one point 375 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 12: six million people who now literally are facing because they're elderly, 376 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 12: they don't qualify for Medicare. In Wisconsin, some of these 377 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 12: people are facing premiums of thirty six thousand dollars per year. Again, 378 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 12: that's government's government forced insurance to be so unreasonably priced, 379 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 12: So we ought to do something for them. So what 380 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 12: I propose is, let's, you know, for a year or two, 381 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 12: let's extend the substaues. Here's the relevant question though, If 382 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 12: you're making over four hundred percent of poverty, what percentage 383 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 12: your income so the taxpayers expect you pay for premiums 384 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 12: before we subsidize the rest. 385 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 10: What should that be? 386 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 12: You know, I got a score on ten percent, came 387 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 12: in about five billion dollars per year. I'd rather go 388 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 12: twelve or thirteen percent, which I think is reasonable, right, 389 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 12: it's kind of self limiting. I actually have a couple 390 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 12: of Democrats interested in that. That would be a real solution, 391 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 12: very limited cost, focuses on those people. 392 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 10: Really being harmed by government. 393 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 12: Let's faces, we're kind of in charge of government, so 394 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 12: I guess we've got to try and mop up that mess, 395 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 12: just like President Trump's doing with the border and the wars, 396 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:18,199 Speaker 12: and you know, forty your high inflation. Part of the 397 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 12: problem Republicans ace face when we gain power. We're always 398 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 12: cleaning up the messes created by the Democrats, and they 399 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 12: create enormous messes, and they have you know, long tail winds, 400 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 12: and they're they're just very difficult things to do. 401 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: Senator shifting gears here, nine hundred and one billion dollar 402 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: defense bill is apparently on its way to the Senate. 403 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 1: These defense bills normally make me want to vomit because 404 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: there's all kinds of crap they put in there, and 405 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: they call it a defense bill, and if you're against it, 406 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: of course you don't support the troops. What is in 407 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: this one that I'm going to hate? 408 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 10: Probably a lot? 409 00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 12: You know, those we're written by Eric Prince two big 410 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 12: to win, and I would have loved if Erik Prince 411 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 12: could have joined the administration, maybe a Secretary of Defense 412 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 12: or you know, some key position, strategic policy maker and 413 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 12: something like that. But he basically argues, you know, we're 414 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 12: so massive in our procumant policies, and you're always looking 415 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 12: at the last war. We aught to be looking at 416 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 12: what's happening in Israel and Gaza, what's happening in Ukraine. 417 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 12: I mean, these wars are being fought in a different way. 418 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 12: I mean, drones are completely changing the landscape a whole 419 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:32,000 Speaker 12: lot cheaper in many cases, are very very dangerous, you know, 420 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 12: very very lethal, but far more targeted. So again, the 421 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 12: generals are always finding the last war. 422 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: We need more. 423 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 10: Strategic thinking here. 424 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 12: Yeah, we're going to spend more than we should in defense, 425 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 12: and you're right, it's hard to vote against that because 426 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 12: you want to support the troops. 427 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 10: You know, obviously, when you're. 428 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 12: Spending nine hundred billion dollars, you're spending a lot that 429 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 12: needs to be spent. But there's no doubt about we 430 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 12: could spend these things much wiser. But this is Congress 431 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 12: in charge, and. 432 00:24:58,920 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 10: You get what you get. 433 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: Tell me about earmarks. The rumor is that you're having 434 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: some conflict with some of your fellow Republicans. 435 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 12: Well, the first conference meeting I attended when I got 436 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 12: elected in twenty eleven, this is during orientation before as 437 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 12: a senator, was the conference meeting where they were debating 438 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 12: whether we should as a conference support earmarks. And you 439 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 12: had Tom Coburn on one side who said earmarks was 440 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 12: the gateway drug, and he had others on the other 441 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 12: side saying, yeah, but you can't allow a Democrat president 442 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 12: to direct all the spending. Some of this should be 443 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 12: directed by Congress, which is a good argument. I mean, 444 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 12: I get that, but I signed more of Tom Coburn 445 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 12: that is it's a gateway drug. We passed the resolution, 446 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 12: and we didn't do earmarks for ten years. But then 447 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 12: Biden came into office. Democrats had the power. They were 448 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 12: going to do ear marks, and so Republican leadership said, well, 449 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 12: they're going to get some earmarks. 450 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,119 Speaker 1: We bought it. 451 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,120 Speaker 12: Ought to get some too. Now, currently I think twenty 452 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 12: eight Republicans didn't do remarks, others did. We've got a 453 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 12: problem with that, and that's that's the issue right now. 454 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,120 Speaker 12: You know, are we gonna fix it this time? Probably 455 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 12: not already baked in, but we're raising the issue, and 456 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 12: you know, we certainly hope we can reform this moving forward. 457 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: Senator, thank you. If I don't talk to you again beforehand, 458 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 1: have a merry Christmas, you are yours. Please's caught to 459 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 1: Carol Roth. Carol usually makes us feel better sometimes. Anyway. 460 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: We got a rate cut, that's something. At least we're 461 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: gonna sleep good because a beam. That's something. We have 462 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: dream powder, no matter how bad it gets, we have 463 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,359 Speaker 1: dream powder. We have hot chocolate. You know, that's what 464 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: dream powder is. I take a little coffee cup, pour 465 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: a little milk in there just before bed. I then 466 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: go get myself a scoop of dream powder, put it in, 467 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: mix it all up. It's just delicious hot chocolate, mind 468 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: cinnamon chocolate. You'd never know. There's all kinds of goodies 469 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: in there, all kinds of natural things, no drugs, drug free, 470 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: natural things that make you just a little sleepy. And 471 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: when you go to sleep, stay asleep. And more importantly, 472 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: when you wake up, you actually feel rested, not that groggy. 473 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: You know, took something to sleep hangover. Try it. It's 474 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: gonna make your Christmas season better. Shotbeam dot com slash 475 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly we'll be back. The Federal Reserve just cut 476 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 1: rates twenty five basis points. I don't know exactly what 477 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: that means, but it sounds good. Joining me now, my 478 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 1: friend Carol Roth, two times New York Times best selling 479 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: author recovering investment banker. Okay, Carol, what does this mean 480 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: for me? And I don't care about what it means 481 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: for Wall Street? What's it mean for me? 482 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 8: Well, what it signals is that the Federal Reserve is 483 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 8: concerned about two things. One is that it is considered 484 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,119 Speaker 8: about employment. So what it means for you is that 485 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 8: if you have a job, you should hold on to 486 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 8: it with dear life unless you have another one lined up, 487 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 8: and not be a you know, so cavalier about job 488 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 8: switching because they have a concern that there is softening 489 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 8: in the labor market. So that's the first thing. The 490 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 8: second thing, which isn't directly related to them cutting rates, 491 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 8: but more with what they are going to do with 492 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 8: their balance sheet. They're instead of letting securities that they 493 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 8: have bought previously run off their balance sheet, guess what 494 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 8: they're going to do now, Jesse. They're going to start 495 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 8: to buy more securities. But it's just short end securities, 496 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 8: meaning the short duration one year or less type of securities, 497 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 8: So it's not really QE like it was before. But 498 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 8: basically what they're signaling with this is that they're concerned 499 00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 8: about the workings of the treasury market, having enough liquidity 500 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 8: in the banking system, and if they feel if they 501 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 8: don't intervene, that rakes could spike and there could be, 502 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 8: you know, some potential crisis. So they're trying to get 503 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 8: in and put that aside. So in terms of what 504 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 8: this all means for you, do you want me to 505 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 8: continue to want to ask a question? 506 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: Please? No? No, please continue, Okay. 507 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 8: So, in terms of what it means for you, if 508 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 8: you are a saver in somebody who's investing in short 509 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 8: term CDs or money markets or things like that, it 510 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 8: means that the rate that you're going to earn on 511 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 8: your savings is going to be less. But in terms 512 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:42,240 Speaker 8: of things like mortgages or the costs of the government 513 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 8: financing its debt, unfortunately the Fed does not directly influence that. 514 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 8: It usually has an indirect influence. But at this point, 515 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 8: because our fiscal position is so bad, we're in something 516 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 8: called fiscal dominance, where our fiscal policy is dominating anything 517 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,479 Speaker 8: the FED could do with their mind pnitary policy. So 518 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 8: it won't have an impact on that unless other things 519 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 8: happen outside of the FETs control. 520 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: All right, as you can imagine, I have questions already 521 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: the softening of the labor market. I love how you 522 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: massage that word, Carol, You just set it down like 523 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: a little puppy. What does that mean? And why are 524 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: they worried? 525 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 8: So they're concerned that companies are not hiring as much, 526 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 8: that there may be more layoffs, that there may be 527 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 8: may be more difficult for individuals to find jobs. There 528 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 8: are fewer job openings available per job seeker, so all 529 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 8: of those things. What part of their stated mandate, which 530 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 8: we don't know that they actually follow, but part of 531 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 8: their stated mandate is to maximize employment to get us 532 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 8: to full employment, and so they're concerned about what that 533 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 8: employment is going to look like. And as you can imagine, Jesse, 534 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 8: in terms of flowing through the general economy, if people 535 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 8: don't have jobs, they're not outspending money. That can be 536 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 8: a drag on the economy. So they're hoping that by 537 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 8: lowering interest rates that they will be giving you a 538 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 8: little bit of breathing room to companies to maybe hopefully 539 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 8: spur them to not lay off people, to make more 540 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 8: hires and the like. As you can imagine. Again, not 541 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 8: necessarily a direct one to one correlation, but that's the 542 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 8: stated purpose. 543 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: Okay, Carol, I understand that I'm about to ask a 544 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: very simple question that's going to require a complicated answer 545 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 1: that almost probably can't even be answered. But why are 546 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: companies laying people off? Why are they firing people? Why 547 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: are they hesitant to hire people? Is this is it 548 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 1: an interest rate thing? Is it an AI thing? It's 549 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: technology advancing and facing people. But what why aren't companies hiring? Well? 550 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 8: I think it depends on which companies. If you have 551 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 8: the largest companies, the ones who are focused on the 552 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 8: stuff market, who are who have publicly traded securities, who 553 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 8: live and die by quarterly releases and results, those types 554 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 8: of companies are the type that you may be looking 555 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 8: to AI who may have over hired during COVID and 556 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 8: now are looking to normalize their hiring base. And a 557 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 8: lot of those big corporations, you know, they're just looking 558 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 8: for cost savings. They don't really care about people, so 559 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 8: that becomes an issue for them. For smaller companies. We 560 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 8: have not seen deregulation. Many of them have been dealing 561 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 8: with tariff issues and other costs of doing business. Since 562 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 8: you know, costs have been continuing to increase on a 563 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 8: state and local level. We continue to see minimum wages 564 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 8: going up, so it becomes more difficult for those companies 565 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 8: to continue to hire. So you're seeing more people taking 566 00:32:56,680 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 8: on more responsibilities and seeing their job expand probably not 567 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 8: for much or in some cases any increase in their 568 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 8: wage versus the companies bringing on new people. So it 569 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,760 Speaker 8: really is a bit of a mixed bag depending on 570 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 8: where you stand in the market, but all of those 571 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 8: issues converged. The one thing I will say is that 572 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 8: obviously we have also cut a lot of illegal immigrants 573 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 8: out of the market, so some of the drag may 574 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 8: be on that side, the fact that there are people 575 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 8: who shouldn't be here working who are not here working, 576 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 8: which is a very positive development, but as you can imagine, 577 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 8: that's going to take some time to normalize. If you 578 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 8: take a bunch of people out of the market, it 579 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 8: may be a while before those people are replaced. There's 580 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 8: a mismatch there, So in that particular case, it may 581 00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,520 Speaker 8: just be a normalization. And so that's the bright, shining 582 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 8: good news piece in all of the other potentially had 583 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 8: scratch your news. 584 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: You know, Trump deported all the cleaning ladies from my buildings. 585 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 1: We're still going through that. I wanted to ask you 586 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 1: about this Fox News article that you wrote, wonderful article 587 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: by the way, titled Americans have never had access to 588 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 1: more luxuries? But why do we feel so poor? All right, Carol? 589 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: Why do we feel poor? 590 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 8: This is the craziest thing that's been really bugging me 591 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 8: for a long time. 592 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 13: As somebody who advocates for the. 593 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 8: Middle and working class in the American dream for everybody 594 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 8: is that we have this very strange paradox when it 595 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 8: comes to wealth. When you think. 596 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 13: About what wealth does for you, it should buy you 597 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 13: freedom and flexibility. It should give you access to goods 598 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 13: and services. But it also should really reduce your stress, 599 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 13: right that you shouldn't have to worry about things if you. 600 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 8: Have that wealth. And so what we have today is 601 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 8: a place where a lot of our wants are available 602 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:55,280 Speaker 8: to us. You know, we have technology in our pockets 603 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 8: and our cell phones that you know, our supercomputers with 604 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 8: access to all information that's ever been created in the world. 605 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 8: We have medical advances, we have, you know, a lot 606 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 8: of things that if you know, you look back one 607 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 8: hundred years, you'd say, this is an incredible time of 608 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 8: abundance and luxuries. But at the same time, the basics 609 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 8: of living things like food, things like housing, things like education, 610 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 8: cars and the like, those are really becoming more and 611 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 8: more out of reach for Middle America. And you know, 612 00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 8: the stress that you're supposed to be able to relieve 613 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 8: by having this wealth is not happening. And if you 614 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 8: tie it together and you look at what the causes are, 615 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 8: whether it's education, whether it's it's housing, whether it's it's healthcare, 616 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 8: the like, a lot of those are really coming on 617 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 8: the back of bad policy. It's government intervention, it's federal reserve, 618 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 8: monetary policy, it's the policies of government getting in the 619 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 8: way that has made our lives more expensive. And so, 620 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 8: you know, we feel like, you know, we many many 621 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 8: people feel like they don't have access or struggling to 622 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,840 Speaker 8: just meet their needs when we live in the supposed 623 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,239 Speaker 8: age of abundance. So it really is a paradox and 624 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 8: not a good one one that we do need to 625 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 8: focus on solving for the American dream to be in 626 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 8: everybody's reach and grasp. 627 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: Well. Everybody should be able to go to Red Lobster. 628 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: Thank you, Carol, appreciate everyone should have chopped too. Everybody 629 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: should have a chalk subscription. No matter how old you are, male, female, 630 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 1: you should get a chalk subscription. I personally take a 631 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: male vitality step from chalk every single day.

You 635 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: just feel good all the time, better mood, better focus, 636 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 1: You're better at work. Natural herbal supplements are our path forward. 637 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: I take chock every day because it makes me feel 638 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: good and I don't feel like I ever need to 639 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: go to the doctor's office, and that's a place to avoid. 640 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 1: You want to experience this.

John, I'll say a couple things, and 651 00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: as you know, you're more than welcome to disagree with me. 652 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,279 Speaker 1: I've always interpreted Gavin Newsom as being a pretty savvy politician, 653 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 1: A savvy politician who should be savvy enough to know 654 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: I want to see trans kids as about to be 655 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,600 Speaker 1: all over everybody's television set for about three years now 656 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: as he runs for president. Why would you be so dumb? 657 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 11: Go back to his podcast when he first started it, 658 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,399 Speaker 11: when he had Michael Savageohn as a guest, he had 659 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 11: Steve Bannon on, he had Charlie Kirk, and he had 660 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 11: the conversation about transathletes in girls sports, and he said 661 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 11: that he thought that it was fundamentally unfair. He got 662 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 11: roasted over that in democratic circles. They were furious with 663 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 11: him over making that statement and making it to Charlie 664 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 11: Kirk of all people. And at a certain point he 665 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 11: decided to recalibrate. And when he recalibrated, he became the 666 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 11: partisan warrior. He became the guy that hates Donald Trump 667 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 11: more than anyone else in the room. Well, that doesn't 668 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:09,399 Speaker 11: jive with saying things like that. So now he's back 669 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 11: to being a hard partisan where he takes the standard 670 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 11: Democratic position on just about every issue known to man, 671 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 11: because he got such negative blowback from Democratic circles after 672 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 11: he tried going the other way. 673 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:28,399 Speaker 1: So they whipped him into it. Who oh yeah, if 674 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,239 Speaker 1: you had to say, who do you think he I'm 675 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: sure he takes a bunch of people. Seriously, who do 676 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: you think he fears the most in this upcoming primary? 677 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: You've already mentioned you know there's going to be an AOC, 678 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: either her or some type of her on stage forcing 679 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: him to get left of Jake of Era. But who 680 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: do you think he really thinks might beat him? 681 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 11: Well, whoever emerges is that type of candidate. And it 682 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 11: may be AOC, maybe Jasmine Crockett, who knows, maybe it's 683 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 11: Bernie Sanders with Luigi Board. You don't know right now, 684 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 11: but we know that some every one will fill that 685 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 11: void and someone will occupy that lane. And what advantage 686 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 11: they will have over him is authenticity. They really believe it. 687 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 11: At different points in his career, he's run as the 688 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 11: conservative candidate. 689 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:14,840 Speaker 1: I mean, don't forget. 690 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 11: At one point he wrote a book about government, talking 691 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 11: about how bloated it is, where I think Mark Levin 692 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 11: gave him a blurb for the jacket. And at various 693 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 11: points in time he's moved to the left in the center. 694 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 11: And if you're running against him in a Democratic primary, 695 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:30,840 Speaker 11: that's your. 696 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: Line of attack. 697 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 11: This guy is saying what he thinks will get him elected, 698 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 11: but it's not authentic. And no one goes to Red 699 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 11: Lobster to order the chicken. If you want a candidate 700 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 11: who's a left wing nut, there are genuine left wing 701 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 11: nuts out there that you can turn to. He's just 702 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 11: playing the part right now. 703 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: Okay, does he play it well enough? Because from what 704 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: I understand, the finances are looking pretty good on his 705 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 1: presidential ron. You and I've talked about this before. He's 706 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: gonna raise a ton of money. He's governor of California. 707 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,479 Speaker 1: He's gonna raise a ton of money. Does he play 708 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 1: the part well enough? Democrat voters are stupid, they can 709 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: be fooled. 710 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 11: I don't know, because I don't know what those people 711 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 11: are thinking right now, And how angry. They're gonna be 712 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 11: at Donald Trump when the next election rolls around. I mean, 713 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 11: don't forget right now, everything that's coming out of Gaven 714 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,720 Speaker 11: Newsom's mouth is jextaposing himself with Donald Trump. But Donald 715 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 11: Trump is a lame dug. Donald Trump won't be on 716 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,320 Speaker 11: the next ballot. It's gonna be jd Vance to Marco 717 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 11: Rubio or Ted Cruz or somebody else. And sometimes if 718 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 11: you're the guy who just can't stop talking about something 719 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 11: that happened in the past, you become Al Bundy talking 720 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,479 Speaker 11: about four touchdowns in a single game, and you don't 721 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 11: look particularly relevant right now. Being the Trump hater is 722 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,960 Speaker 11: giving him the Jews. But people aren't voting right now. 723 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,200 Speaker 11: People are gonna vote in the next Democratic primary, and 724 00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 11: I just don't know what the temperature is gonna be 725 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:00,760 Speaker 11: be then. 726 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 1: John, should we be more fearful of JB. Pritzker than 727 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 1: we are? And I, obviously I don't care for JB. Pritzker. 728 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure you don't either. But he is a governor. 729 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna be able to raise money. He's got a 730 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,839 Speaker 1: bunch of money himself. He's kind of fat, he's got 731 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: that relatability kind of fat thing. I mean, aren't we all, 732 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: especially this time of year? How capable is this guy? 733 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,759 Speaker 1: Is this some guy you think Gavin Newsom's worried about. 734 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 11: Well, if he can go to a Las Vegas casino 735 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 11: and win what was at a million and a half 736 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:35,320 Speaker 11: dollars with no lawlessness, the guy is the luckiest person 737 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 11: on planet Earth. Now, you know, I don't know what 738 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 11: game he was playing. I wasn't in the casino that night, 739 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,800 Speaker 11: but it sounds like he either got a royal flesh 740 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 11: or came close to one, although I was told by 741 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 11: a reliable source he came close but was a jack off. 742 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,880 Speaker 11: But this is a guy who certainly has the money. 743 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 11: He has the money to go to the distance. He 744 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,360 Speaker 11: has the money to fight fire with fire. If Gavin 745 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 11: Newsom comes in there with all the money that he's 746 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 11: going to be able to raise, and don't forget AOC 747 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 11: is the top fundraiser in all of the House of Representatives. 748 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 11: She raises more money than Speaker Johnson. She raises more 749 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 11: money than Haakien Jeffreys. And if you look at who 750 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 11: else is on that list, so is Jasmine Crockett. So 751 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 11: the loudest voices in the room right now on that 752 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 11: side are being rewarded. And I wouldn't count these people out. 753 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 11: Just because we think they're mental patients doesn't mean Democratic 754 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 11: primary voters think they're mental patients. They may find that endearing. 755 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,879 Speaker 1: What a world, John, Thank you brother, I appreciate it. 756 00:43:45,800 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 1: President AOC. Anyway, we'll be back. It is time to 757 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 1: light in the mood. And I was sitting in the 758 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: living room yesterday, yesterday morning, and A my wife, she 759 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: was in the bedroom, she was in the bathroom, and 760 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 1: I just start laughing hysterically, just just dying laughing, to 761 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 1: the point where she comes out and she says, Okay, 762 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: whatever that is, you have to send that to me. 763 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: You want to know what had me sitting in my 764 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,839 Speaker 1: recliner yesterday morning, just belly laughing. It was this right here. 765 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 1: Oh let's see it about. 766 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 2: Mm hm m m 767 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: H
