1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy is the minority leader of the House of Representatives. 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: He may someday soon to be the Speaker of the 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,639 Speaker 1: House of Representatives. He represents the twenty three district California, 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: and the congressman joins us. Now, Kevin, how are you, sir? 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: I'm doing well. Thanks for having me on in congratulations 6 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: and all your guys suseet. Oh, thank you. It's as 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: surprising to us as it is to you. And you know, 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:25,600 Speaker 1: you know what's funny, as I was looking at your 9 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: Wikipedia page, which has got to be at least fifty correct, 10 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: and that not only are are we all of similar ages, 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: but your political career was getting started just when our 12 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: talk radio career was getting started. And then I think 13 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,120 Speaker 1: we've all surprised people to some extent. That's right. I 14 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: remember when or something when you guys would come down 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 1: and we've had our radio row there, and indeed when 16 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 1: I would lead it, I still have a tote bag. 17 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 1: So so listen, um, while we'd love to catch up 18 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: for for hours, let's talk about some of the substantive 19 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: things that are going on in the country that that 20 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: you guys are wrastling about it. I I wrote my 21 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: Donkey to work today because I'm really down with the 22 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: Green New Deal. I'm really interested in promoting that, and 23 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 1: I will not drive a motor car anymore. What's happening 24 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: with the Green New Deal on the Hill these days, Well, 25 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 1: the Senate is actually going to have a vote on it. 26 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: The House, it's been referred to eleven committees. We had 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: a press conference last week asking Nancy Pelosi to have 28 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: hearings in all eleven committee because people have to understand, 29 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: and it's something much bigger. It's what's moving with this 30 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: New Democrats socialist and I don't call them that, that 31 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: is that is what the New Democrats call themselves, that 32 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: they're Democrats socialists. And it's a real battle between socialism 33 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: and the free enterprise, and it comes down to control 34 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: versus freedom. Think about it, the Green New Deal, Medicare 35 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: for All, their bill HR one about controlling elections. It's 36 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: all about government having greater control and taking away more 37 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: freedoms of your life. This would dictate everybody has to 38 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: remodel their house. You couldn't fly on airplanes, we can 39 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: no longer have dairies. I mean, it goes to the 40 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: aspect of every element of your life, and even in 41 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: the legislation that she has she put medicare for all 42 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: in it, so no longer would you have private insurance. 43 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: Then if you didn't want to work, government would just 44 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: pay you. I'm not quite sure what society this works in, 45 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: because when you look at Venezuela, it was interesting one 46 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: of the new congresswomen said, Vinzeuela's problem is not because 47 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 1: they're a socialist country, it's because of the sanctions America 48 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: put on vince Auela boy Well, I think it's fantastic 49 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 1: idea and strategy by Mitch McConnell to have a vote 50 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 1: on this, to get everybody on the record of whether 51 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: or not you support this or not. I mean, that's 52 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: a good thing, isn't it. It's a great thing. I 53 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: think America should see what does this bill mean? A 54 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 1: Green New Deal is a nice title, but how does 55 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 1: it affect everyday life? And what it really does is 56 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 1: for those in the middle class and well and have 57 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: lower income, it is gonna it's gonna break you. Um, 58 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: You're gonna go through and have to remodel everybody's house 59 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: that you have, um and those who are in renting 60 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,520 Speaker 1: in others. I mean, I don't understand how he said, 61 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: and how are we going to travel? And the interesting 62 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: part when you talk to the author, she is still 63 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: traveling the way she's always traveled before. But yeah, somebody 64 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: pointed out that old Betto was driving a whole pickup 65 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,399 Speaker 1: truck all over America burning gasoline. Why didn't he take 66 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: the train like, you know, like the rest of us. Yeah, yeah, 67 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: but looks from the world approach, right, do you see 68 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: the Paris of Cord You see all the other nations. 69 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: You know which one country has actually lowered their CEO 70 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: two emissions, that's none in Europe, China and India are 71 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: the biggest polluters in the process where you're going and 72 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 1: growing and the others. And at the same time, we 73 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: have lowered our emission. You know what we've become. We're 74 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: going to become the world leading export of oil. And 75 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: we've done this through the ability of having environmentally sound 76 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: And what does it do. It makes the world safer. 77 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: We're no longer tied to the Middle East. We now 78 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: can control our own destiny. We make the world safer 79 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: because our allies can rely on natural gas from us 80 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: UM And at every step of the way, it seems 81 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: as though they fought this, and we've been doing a 82 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: better job than the rest of the world, combining Minority 83 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: Leader Kevin McCarthy on the line with us for the 84 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: Republican Party. I didn't know nobody in Europe. I mean, 85 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: I know India and China don't play ball, which is 86 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: reason enough for me not to be that worried about it. 87 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: But I didn't know nobody in Europe has actually even 88 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: lowered their remissions. And that's incredible. Go and look at 89 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: all those in the Paris Accord, see that America is 90 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: not in it, and see who has done the best job. 91 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: And at the same time, we have done the best job. 92 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: We've been able to grow and becoming closer to energy independent. 93 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 1: So listen, I meant to get to this in the 94 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: introduction to Kevin McCarthy. I'm so excited, I can't stand it. 95 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: We may finally have a stay to put through the 96 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,280 Speaker 1: heart of the unholy bullet spit train the Kroni Express 97 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: in California. But but before we get to that, killing 98 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: that vampire. Uh, the President's National Emergency Declaration, A lot 99 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: of people who are hardcore pro border security still think 100 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 1: that's that's a little executive overreach. What's your point of 101 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: the concern, of course being that when Democrats have you know, 102 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: the presidency, they'll declare climate change or whatever national emergency. Well, okay, 103 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: let's look, we've had this law and it actually got 104 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: refrained and changed in seventy s It's been declared more 105 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: than sixty times, and President Obama did it. You've never 106 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 1: heard us do something against it or trying to pull 107 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: it back. Um, So the first question is that the 108 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: president have the power to do it. Well, when you 109 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: look at even those who are on the opposition who 110 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: wanted to move a bill on the Republican side of 111 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 1: the Senate to change the ability of the president to 112 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: do it, it goes into the argument and shows the 113 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: president has the legal authority to do it. So the 114 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: next question line and is there emergency along the border? 115 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: Look at the amount of drugs coming across the border, 116 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: look at the amount of human trafficking. But more importantly, 117 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: more than seventy thousand people just in February were caught 118 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: coming across the border illegally. How does matt that match 119 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: up with other numbers? And it's a lot of families 120 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: and kids and that sort of thing, which is logistically 121 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: a nightmare to deal with compared like a twenty two 122 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: year old Mexican guy looking for So I agree, and 123 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: I think a lot of our listeners do agree that 124 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: there is an emergency going on. But how do you 125 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 1: handle that situation when it's President Kamala Harris and she 126 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: says climate change is a national emergency and and just 127 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: crazy um restrictions on how many miles per gallon you 128 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 1: can get in your car that sort of thing, Well, 129 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: you have to you have to see the criteria doesn't 130 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: doesn't need it. But if there are people out there, 131 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: and this is the way I look at if the 132 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: currents if the current speed limit says I can drive 133 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: fifty five, you can't write me a ticket if I'm 134 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: driving fifty five an hour. But if you don't like it, 135 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 1: you go and change the law going forward. So for 136 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: those who all complaining, if and I believe in Article 137 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: one of the Constitution, I'm upset that Congress years ago 138 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: gave the president whoever the president is, this authority because 139 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: you want to check and balance, so less possible today. 140 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 1: That goes back to the Article one that puts more 141 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: restrict restrictions on it. But you cannot you can't. If 142 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: it's current law today, you can't say you can't do it. 143 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: But also let's look at history. There are governors that 144 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: are are able to call an emergency. Right in two 145 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: thousand and five, two governors called an emergency along the border, 146 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: one from Arizona and one from New Mexico. You know 147 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: who was the governor of New Mexico, Richardson. You know 148 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 1: who was the governor of Arizona. She then went on 149 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: become Department of Homeland Security. Um she called the emergency 150 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: because the federal government was not dealing with the border. 151 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: So the lead Democrats here that believe this has been 152 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: a problem for quite some time. It's not like this 153 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: is yesterday, are just happening today. This has been going 154 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: on for quite some time. So the president does have 155 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: the authority. It's been proven. So if you don't want, 156 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: if you have fearful in the future, make a law 157 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: change now dealing with Article one, so you put you 158 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: put the restrictions on going forward. But the law stands today, 159 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 1: and if we're fearful in the future, regardless of what 160 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: the president acts today, the future presidents have the power 161 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: to do it in the future. We had a couple 162 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: of things. We want to hit you with their Kevin McCarthy, 163 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,119 Speaker 1: minority leader for the Republicans in the House. UM and 164 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,359 Speaker 1: I thought of it since you brought up Janet Napolitano 165 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: and she's involved in the UC system. Obviously at the 166 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: very top of it, there is a professor at U C. 167 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: Davis that advocates the murder of police officers. And we've 168 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: been trying to get rid of this guy now for 169 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: several weeks. I don't know if this story is bubbled 170 00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: up to you since you're at California. I've just I've 171 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 1: just read about this the other day. This is appalling 172 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: in today's society. How can you allow this to go on? 173 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: I mean, far be it for a conservative to misspeak 174 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: on one thing, everybody would come after him. But for 175 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: a professor to go out and say that we advocate 176 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: a murder and then a murder of a police officer, 177 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: why is it? Why would that be wrong for a 178 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: person to go in and put that person on leave 179 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 1: or fire. How long do you think you'd get to 180 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: be a professor at a UC campus if you were 181 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: anti abortion and talked about it in class regularly. What 182 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 1: if you were a Donald Trump had to work forget 183 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: it riot. Yeah, well you you have. You have a 184 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: young lady at the Clovis High School who is not 185 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: allowed to wear a red Donald Trump at to school 186 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: and they they principal said no or anything else. But 187 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: you're going to have somebody to stand from a position 188 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: of power, from a lecture above. Just tell people to 189 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: actually murder a police officer, and somehow we're want to 190 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: make sure we protect that person's right to do that. Absolutely, 191 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: you can't yeel fire in a crowded theater, but you 192 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 1: can yelp Killicott. Yeah, it's it's astounding, and he said 193 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 1: it repeatedly in publicly. Listen, we know your time is limited, 194 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: So let's talk about killing the one of the greatest 195 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: thefts from taxpayers in the history of the United States, 196 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: which is the I'm sorry, sixty I'm sorry, a hundred 197 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: billion I'm sure by the time it was going to 198 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 1: be done, two hundred billion dollar regular speed train in California. 199 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: What's happening with the Railway Act? Well, I produced the 200 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: Railway Act, and you've got to understand, this so called 201 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: high speed rail was never going to be high speed. 202 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to subsidize everybody who gets on that train. Um. 203 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: Back when the Democrats controlled Congress, they put forth three 204 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: billion dollars to give to California to deal with the 205 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: high speed rail. Well, they haven't spent all that money, 206 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: and now the UB we're not going to finish this thing, 207 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: and California has not lived up to the contract of 208 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: what they said they would do. So it's roughly almost 209 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: a billion dollars left. The President wants to pull that 210 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 1: money back. I looked the taxpayers said, they want to 211 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: put it into infrastructure. Why don't we put that money, 212 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: keep it in California and put it for the best 213 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: return on the investment water storage here we have a 214 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: great winner. We know there'll be another drought. Why don't 215 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: we put that in and save the water for the 216 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 1: future for California so we don't have them limiting how 217 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: many how long our showers can be, or whether we 218 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: can watch our clothes. What they're trying to do now. 219 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: And it's a great return on investment from Shasta Dam 220 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: sites reservoir, and that's what the money should be used for. 221 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: That's terrific. It's called the Railway Act, and we'll be 222 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: talking about it. Does the days go by. It's it's 223 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: a great solution. A couple of quick questions. Do you 224 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: ever think about running for president someday? No? No, And 225 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: that's a good answer. Do you think Gavin Newsom is 226 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: going to run for president? And I mean this time around? 227 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: The governor of California? I don't think this time around, 228 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: but I think he thinks about it every day. I 229 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: think he's laying in wait. If nobody burbles up, he's 230 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: going to jump in. Yeah. I think his latest decision, 231 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: I'm thinking he has more power than the voters of California, 232 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: and in regards to the death penalty, is something to 233 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: put him on the national stage, not just something to 234 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: put what he was to do it all right, give 235 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: us thirty seconds on Nancy Pelosi. She's smart as hell, 236 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 1: but or and but the new Democrats socialists have overtaken 237 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: her power and they are now making her looks like 238 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 1: a moderate in her own party. Wow, that's true. That 239 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: is true. It is very true. If you watched what 240 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 1: took place two weeks ago when the speaker could not 241 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: put a resolution on the floor denouncing Congresswoman Omar's language 242 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: about questioning somebody of the Jewish faith of whether they 243 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: could be loyal to America. Says that we heard in 244 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: the thirties that she couldn't even move that onto the floor, 245 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,719 Speaker 1: that she had to water it down, not name her. 246 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: That was the moment in time that she is just 247 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: now speaker in name, not speaker in power. The new Democrats, 248 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: socialist run the Democratic floor. That's newsmaking right there, Kevin McCarthy, 249 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: We appreciate it. Yeah. He's the minority leader of the 250 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: House of Representatives, represents California's twenty three. We've known him forever. 251 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: Congressman Kevin McCarthy. Kevin, great to talk to you. Let's 252 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: do it again soon, all right, thanks for having me on. Guys, 253 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: all right, thanks hands and you've got to get that 254 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 1: last thirty seconds out the news stations. That's newsmaking. Yeah, 255 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: that really is. Kevin McCarthy says, she stopped being speaker 256 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 1: in reality. She has she has, she has no power 257 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: now as of last week with that resolution. Yeah wow, yeah,
