00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 1: Hello America, Happy Monday. Welcome to Just the News, No Noise.

2
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: Welcome to this post Christmas, pre New Year's episode of

3
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: Just the News, No Noise. It always kind of feels

4
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: like this period between Christmas and New Year's it's like

5
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 1: it's definitely no man's land for the diet. Everybody is

6
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:37,519
Speaker 1: just kind of picking on Christmas food, which if I

7
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: look a little puffy, that's why I've been doing a

8
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: whole lot of picking. But alas, we have a great

9
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: show queued up for you tonight. But before we get

10
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: into some of those interviews, you know, President Trump build

11
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: himself the first time around, especially with the Abraham Accords,

12
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: as the President of Peace and continuing on that mission

13
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: in his second term. He is staying on top of

14
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: the situation between Russia and between Israel and Iran and

15
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 1: a lot of these other boiling Trump is trying to

16
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: find solutions and resolutions for So. President Trump, as many

17
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,679
Speaker 1: of you probably know, met with Vladimir Zelensky of Ukraine

18
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: yesterday and he said that they are closer to a

19
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: peace deal than ever before.

20
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: To check this out, I really believe we're probably, mister President,

21
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: closer than by far closer than ever before with both parties.

22
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,759
Speaker 2: We had sometimes when he was close and President Putin wasn't.

23
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: Then when that President Putin was close and he wasn't.

24
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: You saw that in the White House. But I think

25
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: they both want to see it happen.

26
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 3: All right.

27
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: And in this next clip I want to show you,

28
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: President Trump talks about the possibility that he could go

29
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 1: to visit Ukraine. Now, if you think back to President

30
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: Trump meeting with Vladimir Putin in Alaska, this is one

31
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: of those situations where when President Trump is involved, according

32
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: to the left, he's darned if you do, darned if

33
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: he does, and darned if he doesn't. Just like with

34
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: Putin coming to Alaska. Of course the left said, oh,

35
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: I can't believe he welcomed him on to US shore.

36
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: But if President Trump had gone to Russia, they would

37
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: have said, I can't believe he capitulated to Putin and

38
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: went to Russia. So this is one of those situations

39
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: where President Trump goes with his business instinct, that gut

40
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: instinct that he has, and so he talked about the

41
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: prospect of him possibly visiting Ukraine.

42
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 3: Here it is, you know, I have.

43
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 2: No problem with it, don't anticipate it would like to

44
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 2: get the deal done and not necessarily have to go.

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 2: I've offered to go and speak to their parliament, and

46
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: you know, if that would help. I don't know that

47
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: would help. I think it would probably help, but I

48
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 2: don't even know if that's welcome. Yeah, no, I know,

49
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 2: so I'm not sure that it would be really necessary.

50
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 2: But if it would help save twenty five thousand lives

51
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 2: a month or whatever it may be, I would certainly

52
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: be willing.

53
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 4: To do that.

54
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: Not right, And as I tickled at the top of

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: the show, President Trump also keeping his eye on Iran

56
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: and Israel. And I will admit that for a lot

57
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 1: of folks who are foreign policy minds, who are national

58
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 1: security experts, they looked at this deal that President Trump

59
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: broker between Israel and hamas, this twenty point piece plan

60
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 1: that the UN sanctioned by the way, or that the

61
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: UN put their stamp.

62
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 5: Of approoval on. I suppose I should say in.

63
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: This context, but the first part of that peace plan

64
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: has gone relatively smoothly. Iran and Israel have and I

65
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: use the term relatively because they have relatively adhere to

66
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: that first point. Now, the second point is going to

67
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: be tricky because it requires Hamas to give up their

68
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: weapons and it requires Israel to remove their troops. So

69
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: this is going to be a really tricky part of

70
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: this peace plan. But presidents spoke yesterday regarding this as well.

71
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: Check it out.

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: And speaking of Iran, I hope they're not trying to

73
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: build up again, because if they are, we're going to

74
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: have no choice but very quickly to eradicate that build up.

75
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 2: So I hope Iran is not trying to build up,

76
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: as I've been reading that they're building up weapons and

77
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 2: other things. And if they are, they're not using the

78
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 2: sites that we obliterated, but they're using possibly different sites.

79
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: We know exactly where they're going, what they're doing, and

80
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: I hope they're not doing it because we don't want

81
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: to waste the fuel on a B two. It's a

82
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 2: thirty seven hour trip both ways. I don't want to

83
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 2: waste a lot of fuel.

84
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: And that was today, By the way, my producer let

85
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: me know that I accidentally said yesterday.

86
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 5: I was thinking today.

87
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: I meant to say today, but apparently I didn't say today.

88
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: All right, everybody, and one more clip I want to

89
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: show for you, because President Trump always you know, there's

90
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: always a carrot and stick scenario here, and there are

91
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: two different sides of what the results could be. And

92
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: President Trump talked about what the stick side of things

93
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: could look like.

94
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: We talked about hamas, and we talked about disarmament, and

95
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: they're going to be given a very short period of

96
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 2: time to disarm and we'll see how that works out.

97
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 2: Steve Whitcoff and Jared Kushner will be in charge of

98
00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: that from our side. But if they don't disarms as

99
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 2: they agreed to do, they agreed to it, and then

100
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 2: they'll be hell to pay for them. And we don't

101
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: want that. We're not looking for that hell to pay.

102
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: And I do believe him, all right, everybody, So let's

103
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: start tonight with an interview that I did with Georgia

104
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 1: Congressman Austin Scott. This is something that we did a

105
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: little bit before Christmas, but we talked about what the

106
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: priorities were going to be for twenty twenty six, and

107
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: one big topic is going to be healthcare. Of course,

108
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: how Republicans can fix it.

109
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 5: Take a listen.

110
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: We are here with Congressman Austin Scott. Congressman, it's so

111
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: great to see you.

112
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 5: In person.

113
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 3: Good to be here.

114
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 6: It's been a while since I've seen you in person.

115
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: Has indeed, so it's great to be here up on

116
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill. And for our audience watching, we are here

117
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 1: at on Capitol Hill. This is one of the caucus rooms.

118
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 1: This is my favorite building. The Canon Building is, in

119
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: my opinion, the most beautiful of all the Congressional office buildings.

120
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 5: But this is an important event because.

121
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: You guys are talking to new media a lot of

122
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,239
Speaker 1: folks like us, and it's important because you guys have dealt.

123
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 5: With traditional media for a very long time.

124
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 7: That's right, and without you guys, we would be having

125
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 7: a very very difficult time getting the truth out. And

126
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 7: so I appreciate you and everything that you do. It

127
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 7: is important that the American citizens know the truth. I

128
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 7: am a firm believer that our democracy will take care

129
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 7: of itself as long as the citizens know the truth.

130
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 7: A certain number of people are going to vote Democrats,

131
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,800
Speaker 7: certain numbers are going to vote Republican. But as long

132
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 7: as everybody knows the truth, our democracy will be okay,

133
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 7: and therefore our country will be okay.

134
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 5: I want to ask you about Republican unity.

135
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: I do think that it certainly seems like, you know,

136
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: at this point, heading into the Christmas holiday and New

137
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: Year's it seems like you guys are more aligned than

138
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: you have been in a long time on priorities.

139
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 5: Is that the reality it is?

140
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 7: And if you look at how slim the margin is

141
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 7: and you look at what we've actually been able to

142
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 7: get done, we're not getting a whole lot of credit

143
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 7: for the things that the Republican majority has done, the

144
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 7: thing that President Trump has done.

145
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 6: And so if you.

146
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 7: Look just back at the at the tax bill that

147
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 7: we got passed, I mean, every American citizen out there

148
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 7: would be getting a big tax increase starting about a

149
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,960
Speaker 7: month from today, and so we stopped that. And uh,

150
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 7: you know, the Democrats have said a whole lot of

151
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 7: things about it, but the bottom line is, you know,

152
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 7: we we have cash flow issues in the American household

153
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 7: right now. It came from the inflation from the American

154
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 7: Rescue Plan and the Inflation Reduction Act. Those are, by

155
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 7: the way, the Democrat names for the piece of legislation,

156
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 7: just like they call the Affordable Care Act affordable. You know,

157
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 7: when the Democrats name something, the best thing about the

158
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 7: the ink on the paper is the name of it.

159
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 7: What's actually written it. It's what you need to be

160
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 7: afraid of.

161
00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 2: Uh.

162
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 7: But but then you'd be getting a huge tax increase

163
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 7: starting in January, and so we stopped that.

164
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 4: Uh.

165
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 7: The government's opened, as you know, Senator Schumer did what

166
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 7: he does and creating the chaos over the last several months.

167
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 7: And so we're hopeful that we get a full year

168
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 7: budget done. If not, you'll end up with a full

169
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 7: year continuing resolution, which is not.

170
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 6: What we want.

171
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 7: They are not willing to vote with us on much

172
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 7: of anything right now. And so what you're going to

173
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 7: see us do as Republicans is we're going to continue

174
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 7: to put forward pieces of legislation that would actually help

175
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 7: people with their.

176
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 3: Health care costs.

177
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 6: And so let me say this to the American systems.

178
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 6: I have been covered in the private sector.

179
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 7: I have been covered by the state merit system when

180
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 7: I was a state legislator. In the public sector, I've

181
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 7: been covered by the federal Employee Health Benefit Plan, and

182
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 7: today I'm covered under Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act.

183
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 7: So I've had federal coverage, state coverage from the government,

184
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 7: and the majority of my life covered in.

185
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 6: The private sector.

186
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 7: This is the worst health insurance that I have ever

187
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 7: had in my life. I literally, when I go to

188
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 7: the pharmacists, do not use my health insurance card because

189
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 7: it's cheaper for me to pay cash than it is

190
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 7: to file for the copey on my insurance card. We

191
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 7: had a claim a couple of years ago. Now I

192
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 7: saved the receipt from it because I thought it was

193
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 7: so ridiculous but symbolic of what the Affordable CARECT does.

194
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 7: The bill was one hundred and eleven dollars for a

195
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 7: doctor's visit. My copay was sixty dollars. The insurance company

196
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 7: paid eight dollars and they wrote the doctor down the

197
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 7: other forty plus dollars of the bill, and so I

198
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 7: pay sixty, the insurance company pays eight, the doctor has

199
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 7: to take forty something dollars in a discount.

200
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 6: I mean, that's not insurance. And so we're getting the

201
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 6: rate increases to right now.

202
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 7: The way to fix this is to put competition back

203
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 7: into the system and so get rid of the pharmacy

204
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,600
Speaker 7: benefit rent managers, get rid of all of these middle

205
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 7: people that have driven up the cost of health care.

206
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 7: And we have to differentiate between health care and health insurance,

207
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 7: and so we have to we have to reduce the

208
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 7: cost of health care, and then we have to get

209
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 7: more competition back into the insurance industry. And if you

210
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 7: don't think that matters, look at what has happened to

211
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 7: the stock price of the major health insurance companies since

212
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 7: the Affordable Care Act pasted. The only people that legislation

213
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 7: helped were the people that own stock in the companies.

214
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: Well, what do you do about people like Senator Raphael Warnock,

215
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: who gets so much money from the medical sector, from

216
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: pharmaceutical companies.

217
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 5: I mean, how do you disincentivize that?

218
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, I will tell you.

219
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 7: I think transparency is the key to that. And then

220
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 7: hold and then holding people accountable. I've got better things

221
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 7: to do than to look at people's financial disclosures.

222
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 6: So I'll leave that to you to do that.

223
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 7: But but ultimately, the accountability, you know, comes at the

224
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 7: ballot box, and we as Republicans, we have to be uh,

225
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 7: very very clear about our solutions to the challenges that

226
00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 7: the American citizens face does not come in the form

227
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 7: of control or more federal legislation. It comes in the

228
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 7: form of competition and choice for the American consumer.

229
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: Is there a mechanism built in because you sound like

230
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: you have so many great solutions to a lot of

231
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: the problems that Obamacare presents. Cross state competition has got

232
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: to become a thing because right now it's a market

233
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: within your own state.

234
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 7: So so cross state competition can can happen. I will

235
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 7: I will tell you right.

236
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,840
Speaker 6: Now we have so few insurance carriers.

237
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 8: I think.

238
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 7: I think the thing we need to make clear is

239
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,479
Speaker 7: that an individual state has the right to license individual

240
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,359
Speaker 7: health insurance products to be sold.

241
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 6: In that individual state.

242
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 7: And then if they want to have some type of

243
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 7: almost like a joint service agreement between I'm from the

244
00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 7: state of Georgia, so if they want to have a

245
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:50,079
Speaker 7: joint agreement between Alabama, Georgia, Florida, makes plenty of sense

246
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 7: to me. But we we have to we have to

247
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 7: recognize that we have to get smaller companies into the

248
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 7: business to put pressure on the big companies. And so

249
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 7: I'm interested in making sure that someone can move into

250
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 7: a market in Georgia and not have to be so

251
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 7: large that they can cover the whole United States of America.

252
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 7: So I represent thirty counties, A lot of them are

253
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 7: which are rural. In many cases, the people in my

254
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 7: counties only have one choice by the way. Another problem

255
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 7: with this the current piece of legislation is that if

256
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 7: you buy your plan in January and you don't like

257
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 7: your plan in February, you're stuck with it for the

258
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 7: rest of the year. And so so why why shouldn't

259
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 7: can the consumer be able to change their coverage.

260
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 6: Let's if you don't want to do it in any

261
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 6: given time, let's give.

262
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 7: Them the opportunity to change at three, three times or

263
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 7: four times a year, once a quarter, you could change

264
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 7: uh and as long as you have continual coverage and

265
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 7: you have no lapse and benefits. We did this in

266
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 7: what was called no loss, no gain in years going past.

267
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 6: Then you know, no preachias and conditions, clauses, you know,

268
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 6: and we can do better. We can do better. It

269
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 6: will require Democrat votes to do better, prior.

270
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 7: To us getting a larger number of Senators and a

271
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,040
Speaker 7: larger member of the House representatives. I don't think the

272
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 7: Dems are going to vote with us because they think

273
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 7: they think federal control is better for the American citizens. Obviously,

274
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 7: in anything that we did that fixed the system, it

275
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 7: would not be more federal control.

276
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: Sir, you're one of those folks up on Capitol Hill,

277
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: you're always ruminating over legislation to propose or to co

278
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 1: sponsor to be a part of. When you look at

279
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 1: next year's priorities for you, what are you wanting to

280
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: put out there.

281
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 7: Yeah, so look, as someone who's owned the Armed Services

282
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 7: Committee and the Intelligence Committee, I'm very concerned about the

283
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 7: critical minerals. I do believe that we need to have

284
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 7: a plan for critical minerals that will include the various

285
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 7: countries in the Western hemisphere where we can get them,

286
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,079
Speaker 7: and I think we have to include Africa in that.

287
00:13:58,120 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 7: We have to have the critical minerals, we have to

288
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,559
Speaker 7: process them. If you just look at a map, geographically,

289
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 7: it's a whole lot easier for us to get those minerals,

290
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 7: process them, and transit the Atlantic Ocean than all the

291
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,479
Speaker 7: way around the world. And so I'm looking towards legislation

292
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 7: that would help with that. Obviously, agriculture is a big

293
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 7: part of what I do as well, and so want

294
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 7: to do a lot of things to help the American

295
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 7: farmer with regard to.

296
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 6: Their choice as well.

297
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 7: They have very little choice in fertilizer and chemicals and

298
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 7: other things. And we do need to get the tariffs

299
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 7: off of all of the inputs that are used in

300
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 7: in agriculture production.

301
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: Congressman, you are so beloved by the people of Georgia.

302
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: We love having you come on and talk about all

303
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: the importance if you're doing absolutely all right, everybody and

304
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: stay with us, because on the other side of this break,

305
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: we are going to have a Congressman Eric Meurlinson to

306
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: say on this topic of healthcare, it's really important.

307
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: It's one of the few.

308
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: Wins that Republicans can get next year, a tangible win

309
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,000
Speaker 1: that can help propel them into the midterms. So we're

310
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: going to have more on that after this break.

311
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 9: Hey, folks, you might be wondering when's the right time

312
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 9: to start adding collagen to my diet.

313
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 4: Hop out today.

314
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 9: Collagen production starts to dwindle in your twenties, and by

315
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 9: the time you hit your fifties, like me, it's decreased

316
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 9: and it contributes to wrinkles, sagging skin, and joint discomfort.

317

340
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I'm sensing a theme

341
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: when it comes to what Republicans on Capitol Hill will

342
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 1: be prioritizing in twenty twenty six finally fixing Obamacare, and

343
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: a few weeks ago I sat down with friend of

344
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: the show, Missouri Congressman Eric Burlson on lowering healthcare costs.

345
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: But we also talked about all the government fraud being

346
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: uncovered and what can be done about it. So here

347
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: is my interview with Congressman Eric Burlson.

348
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 5: I actually just.

349
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 10: Had you on my podcast last week, and you know,

350
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 10: it's funny because a lot of the ideas that you

351
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 10: brought forth on my podcast, I've been discussing with other

352
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 10: members of Congress here because you have such such a wide.

353
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 1: Dearth of solutions for Obamacare. Talk to us about these

354
00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: health savings accounts, these MAGA savings Health savings.

355
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 11: Account Yes, so you know this town loves to just

356
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 11: tinker around the edges, right, and not really do anything inspiring.

357
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 11: I think the American people, they demand and they need

358
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 11: something that's radically going to improve their lives. And that's

359
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 11: what I envision is called the MAHA accounts. Okay, and

360
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,919
Speaker 11: imagine instead of buying insurance through your employer, and your

361
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 11: employer picking that you're going to be a Blue Cross

362
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 11: customer and what network and what hospital system that you're in,

363
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 11: you instead your employer sends money monthly to your new

364
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 11: MAHA account.

365
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 8: You put in your money pre tax tax free, and then.

366
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 11: You go pick whatever insurance you want to purchase, whether

367
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 11: it's a state sponsored product I mean, or a if

368
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 11: you want to buy you know, God forbid ACA. If

369
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 11: you really like Obamacare, God bless you, you can buy

370
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,439
Speaker 11: that crappy product. If you like your crappy plan, you

371
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 11: can keep it. But we're providing people a choice and

372
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 11: a life preserver to get off the sinking ship that

373
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 11: is Obamacare. And what you'll suddenly see again is you'll

374
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 11: see insurance companies start competing for people, so you'll like

375
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 11: like Progressive and Liberty mutual and I mean people will

376
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 11: American Family you know, you might the same American Family

377
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 11: agent you purchase auto insurance from. We could sell you

378
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,240
Speaker 11: a health insurance policy, right, and if you don't like

379
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 11: that policy, you can go to the one down the street,

380
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 11: right pick a different policy.

381
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 8: But the end of the day, the choice is back.

382
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 11: In the hands of the person who's consuming the healthcare.

383
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 11: And whatever money that you don't spend on your health

384
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 11: insurance premium, So if you want to save some money,

385
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 11: then that money would grow to like a health savings

386
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 11: account tax free as well.

387
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 8: And then any money Also that's.

388
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 11: That is in that account you can use to purchase

389
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 11: your to pay your copays, pay deductibles. If you want

390
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 11: to do a direct primary care plan, you could do that.

391
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 11: You know, the options are endless. And then here's where

392
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 11: the kicker is. And because we want people to be healthy,

393
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 11: being healthy, you know, having health insurance does not necessarily

394
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:30,800
Speaker 11: equate to being healthy. And so in this MAHA account,

395
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 11: we're allowing people to purchase each month protein, produce, vitamin supplements,

396
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 11: and maybe even a gym membership from to stay healthy.

397
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 5: It's such a great idea.

398
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: And I know you talked about how it can You

399
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,040
Speaker 1: know this, this Maha account can be filled by your employer,

400
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: It can be filled by you. It can also if

401
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: I remember correctly, it can be filled if you're receiving

402
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: government assistants or anything like that.

403
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 8: That can also, that's right.

404
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 11: And you know if you're receiving government assistants or let's

405
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 11: not forget charity, right, Charitable care used to be the biggest,

406
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,479
Speaker 11: an important part of health care. There there was a

407
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 11: time when hospitals were funded by the Catholic Church, they

408
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 11: were funded by Protestant churches. Right that it was an

409
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 11: important it is always going to be an important aspect.

410
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,119
Speaker 11: Why not let if you have a coworker or someone

411
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 11: that you know that's in need that why not let

412
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 11: people donate to to that person's account, right and get

413
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 11: a tax deduction and help help somebody that maybe having

414
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 11: having a difficult time, you know, actually do the Christian

415
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 11: thing right and uh, and I think that that's what

416
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 11: we need to be doing.

417
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I mean what I have found is that

418
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 1: when you allow the private market, especially because we are

419
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 1: a nation of believers. I know Democrats don't want to

420
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: admit that, but we have so many Christians in this

421
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: country who you know that they tied, but then on

422
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 1: top of that they donate to food shelters and things

423
00:20:58,160 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: like that.

424
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 5: And what it seems like, you know, the American spirit

425
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 5: is all.

426
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 1: About grit and ingenuity, but it's also about it's about charity,

427
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: and it is about filling in and not only fill

428
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: in because the government was supposed to fill in where

429
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 1: private organizations fell short. But we've gotten to the place

430
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 1: now where it's the government who futs the bill for

431
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: everything and takes care of everything, and then private organizations, charities, whatever.

432
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 11: Yeah, what's happened is government has stepped in and they've

433
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 11: crowded out private charity, and the result is that you

434
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 11: have a church that is no longer has the salt

435
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 11: that it needs, right, And so I think that we

436
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 11: really need to reverse that.

437
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 8: The other result is that it becomes.

438
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 11: A cold system, right, because now people, if my neighbor

439
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 11: is in need and I give personally and I recognize

440
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 11: that need, then that now there's there's that heart connection, right,

441
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 11: You're praying for them, you care about their lives. But

442
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 11: if my neighbor is now getting I'm being forced to

443
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 11: pay taxes to a government agency, and then I then

444
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 11: that money is flowing to Now I have that it's

445
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 11: no longer a love connection of caring. It's it's kind

446
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 11: of a resentment. It creates up an attitude of resentment.

447
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 1: There's something I wanted to ask you that I asked

448
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 1: you on my podcast, but I wanted to reiterate for

449
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: my audience when it comes to the failures of Obamacare,

450
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: because I remember when Obamacare first started to be a

451
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: part of the conversation and one of the things, as

452
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 1: they said, you know, you can keep your crappy plan

453
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: if you want to keep it, But they also said

454
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 1: that they were going to reinvent the doctor patient relationship.

455
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: They were going to reconnect the doctor and the patient,

456
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: and they were gonna, you know, it was going to

457
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: remove the burden of paperwork.

458
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 5: But that has not happened at all.

459
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 11: No, it has it at all, And and it's what

460
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 11: you're seeing is a breakaway where you have direct primary

461
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 11: care and people are basically, you know, they're paying their

462
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 11: health they're paying for a health insurance product through their employer,

463
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 11: and they're not able to utilize that care and they

464
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 11: don't really want that care. And then they're going out

465
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 11: on their own with after tax money and paying direct

466
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,919
Speaker 11: primary care to get the actual health care that they want.

467
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 8: That's ridiculous and we need to correct that.

468
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: Do you think, you know, with this government shut down,

469
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people learned some really gross

470
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: things about the SNAP program. Do you think that that

471
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: will bring about more outraged by the American people in general?

472
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: Because I know, I know how you feel, I know

473
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: how Republicans feel about Obamacare, but Democrats have been slow

474
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,719
Speaker 1: to the trough when it comes to admitting that Obamacare

475
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: is a disaster. But maybe SNAP kind of pulled back

476
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,760
Speaker 1: the curtain on a lot of these government programs that

477
00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 1: revealed just how.

478
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:45,959
Speaker 5: Bad it is.

479
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean the fact that we don't we don't

480
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 11: don't qualify people anymore to be to receive government food

481
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 11: and assistance is absurd and it's not sustainable. And so

482
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 11: I really think that we did that within the One

483
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 11: Big Beautiful Bill, we did a very strategic and laser

484
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 11: focused policy changes to try to eliminate the waste frawden

485
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 11: abuse within SNAP, within medicaid, within TANAF and hopefully, you know,

486
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 11: we might be able to do I'm sure we can

487
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 11: do more, but at least we did for the first

488
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 11: time in generations some welfare reform.

489
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 1: Do you think that if Republicans are successful with the

490
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: MAHA accounts and this actually hits home, it gets past,

491
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: and the American people start feeling that is that is

492
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 1: that one of those things, like the One Big Beautiful Bill,

493
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,679
Speaker 1: that's a feather in your cap so that you can

494
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: go to the voters in November and say, look what we.

495
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 11: Did, absolutely and look, this is not a time to

496
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 11: be safe. If we don't demonstrate that we're here to

497
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 11: save this country, then the American people are going to

498
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 11: fire us and like it's not about keeping your job.

499
00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 8: It's about doing the right thing.

500
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 11: I think that I think that when we do bold

501
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 11: things like the MAHA account, then the American people will

502
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 11: reward us and continue to elect us.

503
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 1: You know, you started this interview with using the word radical,

504
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,520
Speaker 1: and I think that's exactly right. I think that the

505
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 1: American people want radical change. They want radical solutions, and

506
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: I love your solutions, and they do seem radical, but

507
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: I think that they just might were. Congressman Eric Williston,

508
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: thanks so much for being here. Absolutely all right, everybody,

509
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: and guess what John is going to be back in

510
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,199
Speaker 1: the next block. But because we both sat down with

511
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,920
Speaker 1: Forty Days for Life President Sean Carney right before Christmas

512
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: to discuss a special Nativity scene that they helped put

513
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: together that was shouted out by the Vatican. And we

514
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,239
Speaker 1: also talked about what twenty twenty six will mean for

515
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: the pro life movement. So that's coming up right after this.

516
00:25:48,640 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 4: Break, Welcome Back in America.

517
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 9: Twenty twenty five was a year of significant debate and

518
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 9: policy changes when it came to the pro life movement

519
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 9: to the abortion industry. Everything from reducing federal subsidies for

520
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 9: abortions to significant litigations in the States and at the

521
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 9: national level. I thought it'd be a great time to

522
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 9: bring in the CEO and president of Forty Days for Life,

523
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,439
Speaker 9: our good friend Sean Carney, to help us understand it all.

524
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 4: Sean, great to have you back on the show.

525
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,400
Speaker 3: Good to be here. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year.

526
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 9: Merry Christmas, my friend, Happy New Year. I want to

527
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 9: start with something a little closer to my own personal faith. Obviously,

528
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 9: I'm a Catholic. The Vatican had a pretty remarkable anti

529
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 9: abortion Nativity scene over the Christmas holidays.

530
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 4: Tell us a.

531
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 9: Little bit about the message it sent and the reaction

532
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:45,479
Speaker 9: to it.

533
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 12: I didn't know you were kethlic That's good to know.

534
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,919
Speaker 12: So yeah, I'm Catholic as well. And we were honored

535
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,640
Speaker 12: with this invitation that they wanted to have a Nativity

536
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 12: scene at the Vatican that honored the twenty five thousand

537
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 12: babies who have been saved through forty Days for Life.

538
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 12: And so the artist, who was a Costa Rican woman,

539
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 12: very talented. She used the straw of the nativity scene

540
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 12: to put ribbons in. Each ribbon says forty Days for

541
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 12: Life on it, and there are twenty five thousand ribbons,

542
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 12: each of which represents a baby boy or baby girl

543
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 12: saved through a forty Days for Life campaign, and so

544
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 12: it was absolutely beautiful. It was a tremendous honor. Pope

545
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 12: Leo had wonderful comments about the pro life display, this

546
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 12: sort of pro life themed Nativity scene, and it was

547
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 12: just very, very beautiful and a great honor for our

548
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 12: one million volunteers who have gone out and prayed at

549
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 12: a local forty Days for Life vigil.

550
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 5: Absolutely beautiful, Sean.

551
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: If we know anything, it's that the other side of

552
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 1: this argument fights very hard and sometimes even up against

553
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,479
Speaker 1: something that should be as universally beautiful as a Nativity display.

554
00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 12: What's been the reaction, Yeah, Well, over the years, Pearenthood

555
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 12: has had an awkward relationship with Christmas. They ended up

556
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 12: firing Gloria Felt their CEO years ago because she did

557
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 12: a choice on Earth a Christmas card with the Holy

558
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 12: Family on it, and so they've all they've some locations

559
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 12: actually do abortions on Christmas Eve. I've witnessed that myself

560
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 12: here in Texas, and so it's always anger, I guess

561
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 12: from the other side. Of course, every Nativity scene is

562
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 12: pro life. Jesus came to us through the womb, which

563
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 12: is now statistically speaking, the most dangerous place America in

564
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 12: the world, and so it's a beautiful thing.

565
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 3: We have seen some absurd reactions, but overall.

566
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 12: Especially in a time in our country where we need

567
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 12: good news, this has been good news. This has been

568
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 12: very heartwarming during the time of year where we need

569
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 12: our hearts warmed.

570
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, so very important, Sean. I want to talk about

571
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 9: twenty twenty five year. A lot of big developments in

572
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 9: the abortion and pro life debate and policies.

573
00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 4: Planned Parent had.

574
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 9: Had a pretty rough here when it came to funding

575
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 9: and state laws. Tell us a little bit about the

576
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 9: gains made by the pro life movement in the last

577
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 9: twelve months.

578
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 12: It was the best year in the history of the

579
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 12: pro life movement by far. What you saw is the

580
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 12: reality that the pro life movement in the grassroots, particularly

581
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 12: was ready for the overturning of Roe v. Wade and

582
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 12: plant Parenthood, who was very top heavy in New York

583
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 12: and DC, was not ready. They're not only out of

584
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 12: touch with many of the women that they market to

585
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 12: by promoting in fanticide and abortions up to forty weeks,

586
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 12: they're out of touch with their own employees.

587
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,160
Speaker 3: They had a lot of legal issues with employees.

588
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 12: They had employees trying to unionize, they had employees protesting

589
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 12: their own abortion facilities, sometimes alongside Forty Days for Life participants.

590
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 12: That was definitely comical this year. And then you saw

591
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 12: the historic defunding of Plant Parenthood. But what you also

592
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 12: saw is in blue states where they still get funding,

593
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 12: record funding. In places like California, they were still closing locations.

594
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 12: They closed over six locations this year, many of them

595
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 12: were in blue states where they didn't lose their funding.

596
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:10,800
Speaker 12: They are hurting on a cash flow standard and it's

597
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 12: probably because they have, in my view, a very ineffective

598
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 12: and incompetent CEO, and they didn't always have that with

599
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,600
Speaker 12: the late Cecil Richards, she was a very effective. Unfortunately

600
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 12: CEO for Planned Parenthood Alexis mcgil Johnson is not, and

601
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 12: that was highlighted this year because everything that could possibly

602
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 12: go wrong went wrong for them.

603
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: Sean looking forward to next year, I mean, we know

604
00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: what's happening on the level of Roe v. Wade being

605
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: stripped away and that being a decision that's left up

606
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: to the states. But what about culturally, Are you finding

607
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 1: that hearts and minds are changing culturally?

608
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 3: Yes, and in places you really wouldn't expect.

609
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 12: I think that after Kamala ran on abortion first, you

610
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 12: know president to ever run on abortion, they had abortions

611
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 12: at the DNC for her to try to market abortion

612
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 12: is this thing to be celebrated and something that's good,

613
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 12: and to lose so handedly to Trump. You really saw

614
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 12: many on the left basically trade abortion and trands for

615
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 12: immigration as their new sort of moral crusade. And we

616
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 12: saw the left get fairly silent on substantive conversations and.

617
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 3: Dialogue regarding abortion.

618
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 12: It's all we heard about in twenty twenty two through

619
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 12: twenty twenty four, and that really evaporated for the most

620
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 12: part in twenty twenty five because their abortion stance is

621
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 12: that we're not going to give medical care to babies

622
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 12: who survive an abortion, and that we want abortion with

623
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 12: no regulations. Through all forty weeks, that was a dismal failure.

624
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 12: They're starting to get away from it. I think that's

625
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 12: why you see them aligning with the immigration issue more so,

626
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 12: and because they're losing on trans and they're certainly losing

627
00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 12: on the abortion issue. And that's why we're going to

628
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 12: hit the ground running in twenty twenty six. We have

629
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 12: a lot going on. We'll have record numbers of forty

630
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 12: days for life campaigns. We're making progress on the abortion

631
00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 12: pill front as well with litigation, and so I think

632
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 12: you're going to see the pro life movement continue to grow,

633
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 12: particularly as Generation Z gets more involved. There by far

634
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 12: the most pro life generation at their age than any

635
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 12: previous generation.

636
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, really amazing moment.

637
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 9: It's an amazing moment in time and culturally and historically.

638
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 9: What are the big issues for next year? What should

639
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 9: we be looking for in twenty six when it comes

640
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 9: to the pro life movement. If you have this much

641
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 9: momentum and you do from twenty twenty five, where does

642
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 9: this go next?

643
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 12: I think it's regulating the abortion pills at the state level.

644
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 12: Many states it doesn't get reported. A lot have effectively

645
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 12: done this. We'll be defending the state of Missouri against

646
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 12: a lawsuit for plain pearenthood in Missouri in January. We

647
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 12: will litigate that case to protect their wonderful pro life

648
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 12: laws and their ban.

649
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,200
Speaker 3: Of abortion pills, so we will have that front.

650
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 12: Eighty percent of abortion pills are still distributed through brick

651
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 12: and mortar, so we will be there physically. The plame

652
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 12: parenthood locations and other locations that distribute are you forty

653
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 12: six to offer alternatives? And of course this is a

654
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 12: peaceful approach. So many women take us up on it,

655
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,680
Speaker 12: and it's a beautiful thing. And so they don't have

656
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 12: that at the grassroots. They don't have the pregnancy resource

657
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 12: centers that outnumber abortion providers five to one. So the

658
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 12: momentum is in the grassroots part of the pro life movement.

659
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 12: And that's so important now that Roe v. Wade was

660
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 12: overturned and it went back to the States.

661
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 9: Yeah, really remarkable, Sean Corney. What an extraordinary year twenty

662
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 9: twenty five has been. As always great grateful for your

663
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 9: great update for us. Every time you come on the show,

664

Speaker 3: Thank you.

667
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, what a great conversation, folks.

668
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 13: It is a.

669
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 9: Remarkable you're thinking about that sixty five or seventy centers

670
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 9: I think I've read I've shut down in the last

671
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 9: year abortion centers. It's pretty remarkable in the history of

672
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 9: the abortion industry. All right, We're going to take a

673

697
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,319
Speaker 1: I certainly hope so, because I have a little tea

698
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: towel that says there's no such thing as too much better.

699
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 1: But that is the question that we wanted to answer

700
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: in today's just the news Health Update, and the debate

701
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: continues between RFK Junior and mainstream health experts on the

702
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: risks linked to saturated fats. So what is the reality

703
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: and how can you ensure a healthy diet for yourself

704
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 1: and your children. Joining us to discuss this is the

705
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,160
Speaker 1: director of product Development a Native Path, Elijah Magrain.

706
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,160
Speaker 5: Elijah, thanks so much for being here.

707
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,240
Speaker 1: I am my little southern heart is so happy hearing

708
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: that butter is good and Marjor, let's face it, it's

709
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: one hundred percent seed oil. So maybe we all should

710
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 1: have picked up on this fact sooner.

711
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 4: But here we are.

712
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 14: Yes, that's one hundred percent true. Yeah, So this is

713
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 14: this has been an interesting, interesting development just kind of

714
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 14: in the food landscape. You know, nutrition has always seems

715
00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 14: to kind of go through these phases, right, So, I

716
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 14: mean the most classical one is eggs, right, Eggs were good,

717
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:10,839
Speaker 14: then they're bad, then they were good, then they're bad,

718
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 14: and it kind of kind of goes back and forth.

719
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 14: Now it seems like the the latest thing is is butter.

720
00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:21,799
Speaker 14: So really the biggest thing is and as you mentioned, Margarine, right,

721
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 14: so margin was actually creative from seed oils originally, and

722
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 14: we found out It was supposed to be this kind

723
00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 14: of you know, miracle when it was first first.

724
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 15: Invented in the in the nineteen fifties.

725
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 14: But when they found it that it contained hydrogenative fat

726
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 14: or entrance fat, which we now know is is very

727
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 14: very bad for you, way worse than saturated fat. So

728
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 14: it seems like now the tide is kind of shifting

729
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 14: towards butter. And one of the main things is really

730
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:53,879
Speaker 14: because it's all whole foods, it comes from, it comes

731
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 14: from animals. It's we've been you know, using it and

732
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 14: making it for hundreds of years. People haven't been using

733
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:03,440
Speaker 14: and making you know, canola oil, you know, for hundreds

734
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 14: of years that was originally a byproduct from you know,

735
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 14: industrial manufacturing that we decided to put into our bodies.

736
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, something that starts with volume and involves hexsane in

737
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 1: the process probably.

738
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:20,439
Speaker 15: Not great, exactly exactly, all right.

739
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 9: So you mentioned saturated fat, and I think that is

740
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 9: one of the learnings. Obviously we want to get it right.

741
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 9: Too much saturated fat still isn't good either, but a

742
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 9: good mixture, healthy, healthy, mount but not too much seems

743
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,479
Speaker 9: to be the growing thinking in America right now among

744
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,719
Speaker 9: the medical folks talk a little bit about that nature

745
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 9: verse factory tension that we've been on over the last

746
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 9: few years.

747
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 15: Yeah.

748
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 14: Sure, so I think we've sacrificed a lot for convenience, right,

749
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 14: And that's and that's really what it comes down to.

750
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 14: We know that, you know, seed oils like canoya, canola

751
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,680
Speaker 14: and soybean oil are very very inexpensive to produce.

752
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 15: There's a goot, there's there's a great profit margin for them.

753
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 14: However, they're not they're not they're not nature made, right, So,

754
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,239
Speaker 14: and I think there's the shift now that's that's realizing

755
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 14: that you know, things like like butter and even other

756
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,520
Speaker 14: fats like I mean, because we can put butter, but

757
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 14: other fats that that have been around for a very

758
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 14: long time, like olive oil. Right, So if you're you're

759
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 14: somebody that's you know, just may not prefer butter on everything.

760
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 14: There's there's other fats, uh, like for example, olive oil,

761
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 14: which is not industrial process meaning it's not treated with

762
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 14: chemicals and different solvents. That undergoes what's called being cold pressed,

763
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 14: meaning that it's just kind of squeezed and outcomes outcomes

764
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 14: the olive oil. And so there's this really this shift

765
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 14: going back to what we like to call ancestral wisdom,

766
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 14: and that's really just simply referring to things that our ancestors,

767
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,359
Speaker 14: the things that have been time tested and approved, that

768
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 14: our bodies are are designed, and our and our biology

769
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:00,920
Speaker 14: h is in sync with consuming it's not going to

770
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,200
Speaker 14: make us sick. There's a lot of evidence right now

771
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 14: to suggest that seed oils well and specifically what's called

772
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 14: a mega sixes that are found in high concentration.

773
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,240
Speaker 15: In seed oils, can make us sick.

774
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,760
Speaker 14: They give us this what's called pro inflammatory state, meaning

775
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 14: that our body is just in this constant state of stress.

776
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,279
Speaker 14: We don't see that same with butter And as you said, John,

777
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,799
Speaker 14: it's important to have a balance, right. I mean, if

778
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 14: you eat too much of anything, you're not going to

779
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 14: feel great.

780
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:36,000
Speaker 1: Elijah, Ancestral wisdom is so important for the medical community

781
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: to meld into their recommendations. It's also important for them

782
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:40,479
Speaker 1: to admit when they're wrong.

783
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:41,399
Speaker 5: But Elijah, for.

784
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 1: So long we had this ridiculous food pyramid that they

785
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,000
Speaker 1: doubled down year after year after year. Have we moved

786
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,600
Speaker 1: into a space at least with this administration, with folks

787
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: like RFK at the helm of our health industry or

788
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 1: at the head of our health governmental agencies, that we're

789
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: moving into a space where we can admit that we

790
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: were wrong and we can change things.

791
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 15: I hope so.

792
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:05,440
Speaker 14: And that's the food pyramid is really was created by

793
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 14: a bunch of interest groups in the food industry, you know,

794
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 14: you know, thirty forty years ago, and the largest interest

795
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 14: groups at that time were cereal and grain processors. So

796
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 14: it's no surprise that they made at the base of

797
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 14: the food of the food GUD pyramid, and then you

798
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 14: see you know, fats and protein at the very very

799
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 14: very top. I think we're definitely shifting away from that,

800
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 14: and I think it's it's going to take a little

801
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 14: bit of time, but I think this administration and RFK

802
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 14: are very are very focused and are sending the right

803
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 14: message by trying to redefine the dietary landscape.

804
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, fresh meat, fresh festivals, regular dairy products, saturated fast,

805
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 9: all common sense things that served our ancestors well before

806
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 9: we got into this processed food movement. When you look

807
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 9: ahead of logic real quickly, what are some of the

808
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 9: trend lines you think we'll continue into twenty twenty six

809
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:59,200
Speaker 9: with the get the Make America Healthy Again movement.

810
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's a great question.

811
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,560
Speaker 14: So I think the real focus on just getting chemicals

812
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 14: out of our food. I think that's going to be

813
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 14: continue to be a focus, and that's a and that's

814
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 14: a tough, tough, I think, thing to do across the

815
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 14: whole entire food industry. Food industry is very large, but

816
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 14: I mean, as Urk has definitely said, is that not

817
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 14: the food industry kind of positions different foods by the

818
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 14: country based on the legislation, so we know, we know

819
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:29,279
Speaker 14: that they can do it. You know, the additives and

820
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,840
Speaker 14: the cereal, for example, in Canada are different in the

821
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,680
Speaker 14: US and then are different in Europe. So it's just

822
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 14: a matter of you know, just kind of changing the

823
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,759
Speaker 14: conversation and then passing the legislation that's forcing them not

824
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 14: to basically put put chemicals in the food. And I

825
00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,600
Speaker 14: think once we have that landscape, I mean that that

826
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 14: problem kind of solved. I think it will naturally just

827
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 14: kind of go back to what we talked about, focusing

828
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 14: less on refined processed food and more on whole food

829
00:41:58,560 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 14: with you.

830
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 15: Know, things that we can recognize and pronounced.

831
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think all along it has been a lack

832
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: of will, not a lack of way, because, as you said,

833
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: other countries figured.

834
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:08,800
Speaker 3: Out how to do it.

850
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,040
Speaker 13: Events in Washington have taken a violent and tumultuous turn.

851
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 18: January sixth wasn't just a moment in history for thousands

852
00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 18: of Americans.

853
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 5: It was the moment their.

854
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:47,959
Speaker 3: Voices were taken.

855
00:43:48,120 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 15: It's insurrection.

856
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 12: They were persecuted, hunting seditious conspiracy.

857
00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 18: But behind prison wolves. Something unexpected happened. They found their

858
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 18: voice again.

859
00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 4: Started singing a national anthem.

860
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 3: We took it up to him at mar Alaida applified voice.

861
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 4: Our supporters made this goat Real.

862
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 18: America's voice is telling the real story of January sixth

863
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 18: like you've never seen it before.

864
00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 1: This must be.

865
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:15,520
Speaker 18: This is not the story you were shown.

866
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: I tried responsibility. This is the story they lived government

867
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:21,920
Speaker 1: entrapment scheme that this actually was.

868
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:26,239
Speaker 18: The j six Patriots are no longer staying silent. They

869
00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 18: are speaking, They are standing, and they are telling the truth.

870
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 3: You can't kill us, you can't be us.

871
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 18: They tried to silence them. Instead, they woke up an

872
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 18: entire nation. The sleeping Giant coming soon.

873
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,160
Speaker 5: Welcome back, everybody to the final segment of the show.

874
00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 1: If you have spent any time on social media, or

875
00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: watched the news, or been on just thenews dot com,

876
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: or I mean literally anytime at all since Christmas, then

877
00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:07,800
Speaker 1: you have now undoubtedly seen these videos by independent journalists

878
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 1: Nick Shirley out there exposing the fraud that we talked

879
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: about at the top of the show. They're in Minnesota,

880
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 1: and I am seeing reports that this is happening in

881
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,560
Speaker 1: cities all over the country. I am positive that it

882
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,240
Speaker 1: is happening in places like Los Angeles. There are folks

883
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 1: who are sounding the alarm in places like Ohio and Boston. Listen.

884
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 5: I am not an expert in geography.

885
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:31,600
Speaker 1: My husband laughs at me when I tell it, when

886
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:33,280
Speaker 1: I show my ignorance in geography.

887
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 5: But I happen to know that.

888
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: Boston is not landlocked, and for a twenty mile radius

889
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,760
Speaker 1: around Boston, a corner of which is water, four thousand

890
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 1: daycare clinics. So I have a feeling that the Department

891
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 1: of Justice is going to have their hands full when

892
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 1: it comes to investigating fraud in daycares in food delivery services.

893
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 1: So that's going to be interesting to watch through the

894
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,200
Speaker 1: rest of the year and heading into next year. But

895
00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 1: I've got a few video clips that I wanted to

896
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: show you. Many of you are from with Rob Schneider,

897
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 1: a comedian and actor, very very funny, and he was

898
00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 1: talking about the sense of humor that folks on the

899
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 1: left have, and I'll just let you take a look.

900
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:19,800
Speaker 17: When Hillary Clinton lost the election, and I tweeted, I

901
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:25,360
Speaker 17: haven't seen the Democrats. They're angry since we freed the slaves.

902
00:46:26,600 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 19: That was.

903
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 17: A something that went everywhere, and then yeah, they didn't

904
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,280
Speaker 17: like that. I remember my old boss at Saturday Night Lives,

905
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 17: Lauren Michaels, would say that the Democrats are more sensitive

906
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 17: and they don't have quite the sense of humor to

907
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 17: take the laugh at themselves as Republicans.

908
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:56,560
Speaker 1: Well, I know one Democrat who needs to laugh at herself.

909
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: Her name is mar Gay. And for those of you

910
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 1: who don't fall the news enough to know the names

911
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 1: of these people, which I don't blame you one bit,

912
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 1: but it's my work. Margay as a staff writer over

913
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 1: at the New York Times, and if you remember a

914
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,080
Speaker 1: few years ago, she became a bit of a laughing

915
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 1: stock because she was on a segment I believe it

916
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 1: was on CNN, could have been MSNBC, same same anyway,

917
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,880
Speaker 1: they were talking about five hundred million dollars spent on

918
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 1: an election campaign. I think at the time they were

919
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:32,520
Speaker 1: talking about Bloomberg, and they deduced that with five hundred

920
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: million dollars spent on a campaign that with three hundred

921
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:39,520
Speaker 1: and twenty eight million people in the country, that meant

922
00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: that instead of spending this money on his campaign, he

923
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:45,600
Speaker 1: could have given one million dollars to every American and

924
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 1: had money left over. Now, if you do the math,

925
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,480
Speaker 1: you know that that would be one dollar for every American,

926
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 1: not a million dollars for every American. But you know,

927
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: some of us journalists were not known for our mathematician skills. Anyway,

928
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: she was talking about all of this that has been

929
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 1: revealed in Minnesota, and she feels bad for the scammers

930
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 1: check this out.

931
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:10,720
Speaker 19: Let's recall too that there's also other scandals in other states,

932
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 19: for example, the Mississippi welfare scandal, and this is not

933
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 19: unique to politics. Americans know that.

934
00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:18,760
Speaker 3: But of course, the other.

935
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:22,480
Speaker 19: Factor here is that because it looks like the Somali

936
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,719
Speaker 19: population in Minnesota, the Smali immigrant population may have been

937
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 19: at some involved in some way, those people are being scapegoated,

938
00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 19: and that community is being scapegoaded in a way that

939
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 19: certainly serves the far right.

940
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 1: So sad food kitchens that took in twelve million dollars

941
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,959
Speaker 1: of taxpayer money and didn't give out a single meal,

942
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: they're being scapegoated. Uh huh. Well, Nick Shirley, the journalist

943
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: who has exposed all of this, talked about why there

944
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 1: aren't more of us talking about this here? It is?

945
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:57,080
Speaker 18: Are there local reporters like that in your area.

946
00:48:57,160 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 13: And why do you think they weren't doing the work

947
00:48:59,120 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 13: that you did.

948
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:01,840
Speaker 4: I don't know.

949
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,760
Speaker 20: I like that they're scared of being called nowadays because

950
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,680
Speaker 20: it's some aliums that are committing this product. People are

951
00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:13,360
Speaker 20: scared of be calling Islamophobic, racist, in which has nothing

952
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 20: to do with what's going on.

953
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:15,480
Speaker 3: Because fraud is fraud.

954
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 20: It doesn't matter if it's a black person, white person.

955
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 20: Agent verson Mexican fraud is fraud, and we work too

956
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 20: hard simply just to be paying taxes in enabling fraud

957
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 20: to be happening.

958
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,799
Speaker 1: So you know, if you have a transaction over six

959
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:33,320
Speaker 1: hundred dollars on Venmo, then IRS is going to be

960
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 1: keeping a very keen eye on you. But if you

961
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 1: scam the American people out of millions, and what it

962
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: seems like now, I think the last count I saw

963
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: was fourteen billion dollars worth of fraud, no big deal,

964
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,359
Speaker 1: No big deal, It's just some mollis who are being escaped. Gooded, right, right,

965
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: all right, everybody, thanks so much for tuning in tonight.

966
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,440
Speaker 1: We will be back here tomorrow night at six pm Eastern.

967
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: Have a wonderful evening and we'll see it, and we'll

968
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 1: see them
