Speaker 1: you want a little bang a come alonge. Would you

4
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: want to try to make them look like I made

5
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: some compromise in the dead stealing and I didn't.

6
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 2: I made a compromise on the budget.

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,160
Speaker 1: We finally were able to cut spending.

8
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 3: We're the first Congress to vote for cutting spending year

9
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 3: over year.

10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: Let's go back to pre COVID levels of spending. That's

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 1: what we asked for. We're not This deal doesn't do that.

12
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,960
Speaker 1: Do they still have to worry about the Progressive Caucus

13
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: and whether or not your caucus will support Yes, they do, Okay,

Speaker 4: Welcome to the revolution, coming.

00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: Going up next our final News Roundup and Information Overload Hour.

22
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 1: All Right, News round Up, Information Overload Hour eight hundred

23
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: and nine point one. Sean, If you want to be

24
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 1: a part of the program. So from my conservative friends

25
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: and from myself, you know, I don't like the fact

26
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: that this deal that was cut with Schumer and Biden.

27
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: Originally it was a one year deal. Let's save over

28
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: ten years four point eight trillion dollars. It went back

29
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: to spending levels for twenty twenty three. It opened up

30
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: some energy opportunities in the country, and I thought it

31
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: was responsible on a lot of different fronts. It limited

32
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: the baseline budgeting increases to only one percent a year

33
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: for every program. I like that aspect of it too.

34
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: And anyway, so it passes. But Kevin McCarthy did lose

35
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: seventy one members of his own caucus. And here's him

36
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: talking about all the positives that he believes are in

37
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: this debt deal, which was very different from the deal

38
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: that the Republicans had signed on to. Here's what he said.

39
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 3: Because of the vote, we took tonight the largest recisions

40
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 3: in American history, all the COVID money, the billions of

41
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 3: dollars sitting out there that they said they would never

42
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 3: bring back, you know what, to the taxpayer, to your

43
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 3: hard working Americans, we stood for you. We brought that

44
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 3: money back for those who are afraid that they're going

45
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 3: to get audited. Because the President wants to have eighty

46
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 3: seven thousand new RS agents right now he has zero.

47
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 3: We took every single dollar they were going to hire

48
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: somebody this year away, and I promise you I'll be

49
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,800
Speaker 3: back next year and next year and next year, because

50
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 3: I believe government should be here to help you.

51
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: Not go after you.

52
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 3: We didn't just take the money from this year. We

53
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 3: took another twenty billion. I think we should get some

54
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 3: more border agents with that twenty billion. I think that's

55
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 3: where America would want to see us go.

56
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 1: All right, anyway, I mean a little fact check to

57
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: all this. Yes, it is true. It's the two point

58
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: one trillion in savings would be the largest savings ever,

59
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 1: but we're dealing with the largest debt we've ever had,

60
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: which is thirty one trillion, and it's not the four

61
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: point eight trillion that the original House Bill had in

62
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: savings over that same period of time. He talks about

63
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: work requirements, they're minimal when you look at it, when

64
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: you get to the nitty gritty and the language and

65
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: the bill, it is not what it appears to be.

66
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: You know, if he talks about all the COVID money

67
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: being reallocated. NOE is only a small percentage of the

68
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 1: COVID money that would be clawed back when he talks

69
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: about the eighty billion dollars for the irs. Okay, so

70
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: every dollar this year but not next year? Why not?

71
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: Why did they go from a one deal to a

72
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: two year deal? So I know that's why seventy one

73
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: Republicans voted against it. Here to give us their take

74
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: on all of this, we welcome back to the program

75
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: Congresswoman Claudia Tenny of New York and Congressman and emergency

76
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: room doctor by the way, Richard McCormick of Georgia, who's

77
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: also a Marine Corps helicopter pilot and commander in the Navy. Sir,

78
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: thank you for your service. We appreciate you both being here.

79
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: Thanks Shaw, it's great to be on with you.

80
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: Congresswoman. Let me start with you. Were you happy with

81
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: this bill?

82
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: Yes?

83
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 5: I was, and I'll tell you why. First of all,

84
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 5: it's a great honor to be I'm a doctor McCormick

85
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 5: who also served in the Marines, just like my son,

86
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 5: so a special person. When they tell you there aren't

87
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,039
Speaker 5: good people in Congress, there are wonderful people that serve

88
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 5: in our country. So look, the reason this bill is

89
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 5: getting misunderstood is because this is a framework. This is

90
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 5: not a spending bill. It is a negotiation on a

91
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 5: debt ceiling for bills that have already been appropriated that

92
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,679
Speaker 5: we voted against. This is the scrimmage. The super Bowl

93
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 5: is getting the appropriations and getting the Republicans to stick

94
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 5: together to cut the spending. So I hear some of

95
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 5: the conservatives say, oh, well, this allows four trillion in spending. Well,

96
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 5: President Trump negotiated a six point five trillion dollar debt ceiling,

97
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 5: cleaned that ceiling bill that spent that, that actually allocated

98
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 5: that this.

99
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: But in fairness to President Trump, wasn't that during COVID.

100
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, still it's still a huge.

101
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: Oh well, well that was a pretty unusual time, right.

102
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 5: But here's the difference, Sean. We aren't saying you don't

103
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 5: have to spend the four trillion. It's up to the Republicans,

104
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 5: with a very slim majority, by the time we get

105
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 5: to the super Bowl, which is the appropriations process in September,

106
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 5: when that is finalized, if we don't do this within

107
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 5: twelve regular order appropriations bills hasn't been done since my

108
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 5: freshman year in twenty seventeen. Yes, when President of President

109
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 5: Trump was in office, we controlled the Senate and we

110
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 5: also controlled the House with a significant majority. Here's the problem.

111
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 5: If we don't stick together with a four seat majority

112
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 5: by then hopefully we still have a four seat majority.

113
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 5: That's where it counts. This is where we actually appropriate,

114
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 5: this is where we actually cut. This bill is a framework.

115
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 5: It is not a spending bill. It's going to the

116
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 5: Democrats with a pair of TuS and saying, hey, with

117
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 5: your royal flush, give us some concessions. We got them.

118
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 5: You know why, because the people like you, because of

119
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 5: a lot of Republicans messaging, and because the American people

120
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 5: are hurting. Spending has caused inflation. The energy costs of

121
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 5: added to inflation. People are hurting. That's why the Democrats

122
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 5: had to come to the table.

123
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: Well, I think, let me give you this. What I'm

124
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: hearing from your fellow congressmen that are angry about this

125
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 1: bill number one, they were kept out of the loop.

126
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: This surprise them. This is a very different agreement than

127
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: the bill that the House Republicans had passed. The limit

128
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:04,839
Speaker 1: what's save growbill and the amount of money is a

129
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: lot less in terms of savings. There are a lot

130
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: of loopholes for work requirements. The COVID clawback was not

131
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: anywhere near what you know people were claiming it would be.

132
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: And the money for the irs goes forward except for

133
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: you know what, one point eight billion dollars.

134
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, so we could have gotten nothing, and the Democrats

135
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 5: and some of the moderates would have gone to the Democrats.

136
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 5: They already what.

137
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: Do you mean, got nothing? You guys passed the debt

138
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: ceiling bill. You guys did your job. The Democrats didn't

139
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: pass anything.

140
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 5: Sean, we did it in an echo chamber. It was

141
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 5: only Republicans when you have to go to the Senate,

142
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 5: which is controlled by liberal leftist Chuck Schumer from New

143
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 5: York and Biden who wants to raise taxes, who's controlled

144
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 5: by the far left.

145
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: No, they were boxed in Claudia. With all due respect,

146
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: they were boxed in forty three Republicans signed a piece

147
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 1: of paper saying they were backing the Republican bill. It

148
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: was forty four because Senator Kennedy on my television show

149
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: said he would join the forty three. So they were

150
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: committed to standing strong and letting the House Bill lead

151
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: the way anyway, let me bring in mister McCormick. Sir, well,

152
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: you know what's your take on all this.

153
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 2: You know, Sean, The biggest thing that I immediately said,

154
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 2: I'm not voting for this is when they didn't rein

155
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 2: in the executive orders. We've known this is a problem

156
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 2: for at least three presidencies.

157
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:23,119
Speaker 4: Now.

158
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: The fact is, whatever megear savings we get off of

159
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 2: that eleven percent of the budget, which is small, I

160
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 2: mean eleven percent of the budget, that's what we're addressing,

161
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 2: and we only get a small portion of that back.

162
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 2: And the fact is that when a president can buy

163
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 2: executive order grant way more money than we can save,

164
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: then we're going backwards. The starting point for me was

165
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 2: that we're going to take away the executive orders that have

166
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: been mis used so horribly. When you talk about student

167
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 2: moan forgiveness and what's next, it could be anything, and

168
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: any savings we make with this bill could be taken

169
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: away by one executive order without any vote. And that's

170
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: why I said, that's my first stop. The second one,

171
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 2: of course, of the fact that it's such a small portion,

172
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 2: we're not really addressing the major problem, which is we

173
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 2: quite frankly, we need to address you just talked about

174
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 2: on your previous segment healthcare. And when we talk about healthcare,

175
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: the biggest thing we spend money on one out of

176
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: very five tax dollars, one under five private dollars, and

177
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 2: it's the largest inflationary cost of Americans. And we haven't

178
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: even addressed that in any small way where we're Administrative

179
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 2: costs have gone from twenty five percent to forty percent

180
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 2: the last ten years since I've been an emergency menagement position.

181
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 2: We have big, big, big problems and just dropping the

182
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: bucket this is nothing. And I think unless we can

183
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 2: get the executive orders out of the way, we haven't

184
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 2: really done anything to address the real problem in America.

185
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: Claudia, I mean, do you not understand some of this

186
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 1: conservative criticism and mean you sound like giddy over this bill.

187
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: I don't know anybody that's giddy over it.

188
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 5: Nobody is giddy over it. Seohn, I can't stand the bill.

189
00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 5: It's terrible. But guess what we do not have Ronald

190
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 5: Reagan in the White House. We don't have a sixty

191
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 5: vote majority. We were facing a clean debt feeling that

192
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 5: possibly could have been done by some of the moderates

193
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 5: would have and they easily could have done that. And

194
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 5: you know when Warren Davidson, who I consider a good friend,

195
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 5: one of the most conservative members, Pepper says, this is

196
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 5: the most conservative bill I've ever voted for in his

197
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 5: time in Congress, that tells you something. What we got

198
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 5: was Look, it's not great if, as I said, if

199
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 5: we were in the majority and we controlled everything. But

200
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 5: this is we are in a situation where we have

201
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,599
Speaker 5: to start winning elections. If we don't start winning elections,

202
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 5: we are not going to get to control. And with

203
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,599
Speaker 5: all the respect everyone loved limits save Grow, including me,

204
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 5: but that was done in an echo chamber. That was

205
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 5: passed by Republicans only. It was not considered by the Senate.

206
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 5: It was not considered by the White House. It was

207
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 5: dead on arrival. And if we want to sit around

208
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 5: and say we got a bunch of feel good bills passed,

209
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 5: they make us feel great, They're great for messaging. They're

210
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 5: not making the American people feel better. They're not cutting

211
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 5: in play. They're not doing anything to move the ball.

212
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 5: And we have got to move the ball, and it's

213
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 5: all down to appropriations.

214
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,199
Speaker 1: Look, all right, so you're saying, when the appropriation debate begins,

215
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: I guess what, sometime late August or September, you know,

216
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: leading into the next fiscal year. You're saying that that's

217
00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: when all the big wins are going to come.

218
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 5: This is the super Bowl. You know what Tom Massey said,

219
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 5: who I consider the most conservative member. He got up

220
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 5: in conference and said, I quote, I'm an engineer and

221
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 5: a problem solver when it comes to voting on this bill.

222
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 5: I mean yes, as a politician, I would vote no.

223
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 5: And I rest my case because I think Tom Massey

224
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 5: is one of the most fiscally conservative members in the House.

225
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely is well, it sounds like your mom is making

226
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: your shoves spinach down your throat and you hate spinach.

227
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 5: To me, we're we got to get something past Sean.

228
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 5: We've got to get them in check, and this is

229
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 5: one way to do it. I don't love the reforms

230
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 5: and the bill, but when you're looking at what we're

231
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 5: staring down, and when you see the American people and

232
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 5: a lot of conservative media people like you, who are

233
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 5: saying to the Americans, stand up, this is why the

234
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 5: Democrats came to the table. It wasn't because oh, you

235
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 5: have a four seat five seat majority in the House.

236
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 5: They came to the table because they're spending seven dollars

237
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 5: for a ten ounce tube of mayonnaise. They're spending huge

238
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 5: amounts for gas. I'm from New York. It's almost four

239
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 5: dollars a gallon. Again, we did something that helps that

240
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 5: we could get done. Would I like to be better

241
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 5: Absolutely if we had a bigger majority and we had

242
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,080
Speaker 5: more people on board. Yes, But the real test is

243
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 5: can we stick together and can we cut spending when

244
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 5: it comes to appropriations. This is the real test that's

245
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 5: coming and the appropriations pot this is where we actually

246
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 5: cut where we exercised our powers as congress members. Under

247
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 5: the Constitution, we have the power of appropriations. Let's see

248
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 5: if we can do it as Republicans. Because we can't

249
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 5: have seventy one Republicans, you know, going off away from us.

250
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 5: We have to have all of us on one team,

251
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 5: voting together. We can only afford a few defections.

252
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: Quick break well with congress Woman Claudia Tenny and Congressman

253
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: Rich McCormick. As we continue, don't forget our town hall.

254
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump tonight we're in Iowa. All right, we

255
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: continue now, I'm more with Claudia Tenny of New York

256
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: Congresswoman and Congressman Rich McCormick the Great State of Georgia

257
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 1: talking about this budget agreement. What should take mister McCormick,

258
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: do you agree that when we get to September and

259
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 1: the appropriations process begins, that that is the opportunity we've

260
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: been looking for?

261
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 2: Well, I think it will help. And to be fair,

262
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 2: first of all, Claudia raise a marine, so I got

263
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 2: to give her props for that. That's an accomplishment in itself.

264
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: But just think about some of the legends that voted

265
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 2: for this, Massy Jordan, people who have non negotiable conservative credentials.

266
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 2: I get it where I diverge from a lot of people.

267
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 2: And by the way, I think we can bring this

268
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 2: back together. I think we're gonna We've done a great

269
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 2: job so far with a very narrow majority, being able

270
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: to bring home some very conservative of the legislation in

271
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 2: front of the American people and making people realize the

272
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 2: huge difference between the two parties. The super Bowl, I

273
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 2: think is actually in twenty twenty four, when we elect

274
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 2: a new president and when we take back the SID

275
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: that'll be the biggest thing to me. But I think

276
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 2: in the meantime, I still the thing that I said

277
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:20,120
Speaker 2: was a hard note for me is when we didn't

278
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,560
Speaker 2: rein in the executive orders. And I know that would

279
00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 2: have been a tough one to get passed by, and

280
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: I get it, but I would have held out right

281
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 2: there because I think the American people would have supported that.

282
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 2: They said, look, that's not how the constitution was designed.

283
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 2: Where a president can give away your money without your

284
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 2: representatives who are supposed to hold the purse strings of

285
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: America and the constitutional responsibility and the limitations of the

286
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: executive authority, that's where it stops. Because once again, if

287
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 2: the president can give away more than you can save,

288
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 2: what's the whole point of this bill?

289
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: Oh? I think you've raised in some good points, Claudia.

290
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: How confident are you that will eliminate all that IRS money?

291
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: How confident in you that will claw back all the

292
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 1: COVID money? How confident are you the work requirements for

293
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: people that got government handouts is going to be real

294
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: and have teeth when all is said and done. Can

295
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: you assure me today that when I have you back,

296
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: after the appropriations battle goes on, that those things will

297
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 1: be accomplished.

298
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 5: You know that I'm going to be voting against all

299
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 5: those or for those things, and for the conservative side

300
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 5: of this. The question is can we get the two

301
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 5: hundred and eighteen votes we need? And I want to

302
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 5: mention something, Sean. I got inundated all day yesterday with

303
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 5: Democrats complaining about the permitting process and saying that, you know,

304
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 5: we're against the environment. So that was not a part

305
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 5: that the Democrats liked, although I think we could go

306
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 5: even farther, and we need to remember something. I also

307
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 5: got a lot of calls yesterday. If we lose the

308
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 5: United States credit and the United States ability, if we

309
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 5: were to go in default, as some of the conservative

310
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 5: members said, let's just go into default. That would cost

311
00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 5: us even more money. If we lose our reserve currency status,

312
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 5: we have less access to capital, we have higher borrowing

313
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 5: costs for all Americans, and our lower stock market values.

314
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 5: So that hurt.

315
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: Well, that would have been Biden's default, as far as

316
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: I'm concerned, I think there was more time, you know,

317
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: let him sweat it out, let him capitulate more than

318
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: he did. But that's my take. Everyone negotiates differently. You know,

319
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: an old saying never be afraid to walk away from

320
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 1: any deal up until the minute you sign that paper.

321
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: And that's how I live my life. So anyway, I

322
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Thank you both, Claudia, Thank you, mister McCormick.

Speaker 1: They offer you salads that I you know, make me

340
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,920

341
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: that they say are healthy that I wouldn't want to

Speaker 1: It is no I like the pork chop out of stick.

380
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: Can you make arrangements that might be the thing that

381
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: tips me over the top. Although I love the Harley ride,

382
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 1: here's my problem, Center, I got a problem in my life.

383
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: Maybe you can help me, because nobody's stopping you from

384
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: riding your Harley. I want to ride a Harley. That's

385
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,680
Speaker 1: what I want to do. I want a Harley Davidson.

386
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 1: And everybody in my life forbids me from getting a

387
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 1: Harley Davidson, including my daughter, who will start tearing up

388
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: and crying and telling me that I'm going to die

389
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 1: if I get a Harley US Well. So one year

390
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: for Christmas, I thought they were doing me a really

391
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: you know, nice favor, and they bought me a Vespa

392
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 1: instead of a Harley. I'm like, I don't want a Vespa.

393
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: It's like a moped. And I'm like, if I ever

394
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 1: got caught on that Vespa writing that thing and a

395
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,880
Speaker 1: helmet that wasn't fully completely covered, I said, you know that,

396
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: my man card is gone. It's over, it's done. I'm

397
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 1: just forget it. My friends would dump me as a friend.

398
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:32,239
Speaker 4: I would pay good money. You all dolled up on

399
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 4: a Vespa, all.

400
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: Dolled up on a Vespa. Wow, that's you. You just

401
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: diving in for an salt in the wound, Senator, I

402
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 1: appreciate it.

403
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 4: I will be in my leathers on a Harley Davidson exactly.

404
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean you, you're a senator. Your family doesn't harass

405
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: you about it. My family has a fit every time

406
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 1: I mention it. They swear that I don't have the

407
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: ability to ride one and not text. And that's not

408
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,159
Speaker 1: true because I now ride my car and I don't

409
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: text while I'm driving.

410
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 4: Well that is smart and good on you for that.

411
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 4: But I do wear a helmet, I will be in

412
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:09,439
Speaker 4: my riding boots, I will wear my leather gloves, you

413
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 4: name it. But I think it's important we encourage all

414
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 4: kinds of riders. So, Sean, even if you do want

415
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 4: to come and be on your vespa, you.

416
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: Are well, no, no, no, I don't own a vespa anymore.

417
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: I sold the vespa. I got rid of the vespa.

418
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: I couldn't be seen riding a Vespa.

419
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:31,679
Speaker 4: Well, I tell you, we are all inclusive ride. So

420
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000
Speaker 4: if you ride a Honda, a Harley, a Yamaha, whatever

421
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 4: it is, all motorcycles are welcome.

422
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: Now are you going to jump in? I mean, you

423
00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: got all these presidential hopefuls. Are you going to jump

424
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 1: in and endorse?

425
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 4: I am not endorsing. And that's the one thing that

426
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 4: Kim Reynolds and Senator Grassley and I don't do because

427
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,639
Speaker 4: we as the GOP in Iowa, we do maintain the

428
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 4: first in the Nation caucus and we just want to

429
00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 4: be welcoming to all of those great candidates that are

430
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 4: coming into Iowa and meeting with all of our voters.

431
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 4: And the roast and ride on Saturday will be probably

432
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 4: the largest single event in Iowa where voters can come

433
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 4: out see all of those candidates all together at one time.

434
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 4: So we're really encouraging folks to come out. It'll be

435
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 4: again at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines. We've

436
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 4: got all kinds of folks joining us. It's going to

437
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 4: be great entertainment, great food. Of course, the motorcycle ride

438
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 4: in the morning. But come out shake hands with all

439
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 4: of these presidential hopefuls. We would love to see everybody there.

440
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: Now, now, when is the full On State Fair?

441
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 4: So the full On State Fair will be in August.

442
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 4: It always starts a second week of August and it

443
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 4: runs for about ten days. It is magnificent. It truly

444
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 4: is the no.

445
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: I got to tell you it's it's the best fair

446
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: I've ever been to. It is it really is, it is.

447
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: It is awesome. It is fun. We actually did the

448
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,879
Speaker 1: show once from the fair one year and we had

449
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: a great time. And all I'm doing is sending my

450
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: staff out. Give me another porktop. Please give me a

451
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: one more fright, Twinky, that's all I want another Friday

452
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,440
Speaker 1: and get one more fried Oreo. Just need one. It's

453
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: the greatest food and the most fun you could ever have. Well,

454
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: it's great to be back in Iowa. We're here for

455
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: a town hall with President Trump tonight and he's the

456
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: only one that's missing from your list. It'll be interesting

457
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 1: if he shows up. You're saying, there might be other surprises,

458
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 1: so we'll wait, watch and see. But we appreciate the hospitality.

459
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 1: We love Iowa. We love the people in your state.

460
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: And by the way, I stand with the people of Iowa.

461
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 1: With the Democratic Party did by jumping over Iowa and

462
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 1: New Hampshire, to me, it was despicable, horrible.

463
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,439
Speaker 4: Yeah, and Sean, I've said this many times over, but

464
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 4: it's like the the National Democrats. They gave Middle America

465
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 4: a middle finger, because we really need diversity of tho

466
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 4: and geography when we're we're deciding presidential hopefuls, and instead

467
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 4: what we've done, we've gone to these coastal liberal elites

468
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 4: making all the decisions about the Democratic candidates, and they

469
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 4: have forgotten about Middle America. And thank heavens, you know,

470
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 4: the GOP in Iowa, we continue to fight hard to

471
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 4: keep our voices heard. I am so thankful that we've

472
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 4: got such a great Republican party in Iowa.

473
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: Well, we appreciate all you do, Senator, look forward to

474
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 1: seeing you hopefully over the summer. We'll be here often

475
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: and we begin our you know, four year journey tonight.

476
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: We're here, you know, every election year and the year before,

477
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 1: and we always have a great time and the people

478
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: are wonderful in Iowa to us, and we appreciate that too.

479
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 4: God bless us.

480
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: Sean, Thank you all right, Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa.

481
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine foot one, Shawn A number you

482
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,639
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. Down is

483
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 1: in Florida, the Free State of Florida. Don How are

484
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:00,480
Speaker 1: you glad you called hi?

485
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 6: Sean? Thank you so much for taking my call today.

486
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:04,239
Speaker 1: What's going on.

487
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 6: I'm talking a little off topic. You know, it's not

488
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,919
Speaker 6: budget related. But you are in Iowa and you're going

489
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:15,119
Speaker 6: to see President Trump today. So I'm calling because I

490
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 6: supported him in twenty sixteen. I supported him in twenty twenty.

491
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 6: I had every shirt you could have that said Trump

492
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 6: on it. Unfortunately, I just don't feel like he is

493
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,919
Speaker 6: electable this time. And I know, I know he has

494
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 6: a big ego and he did such a great job

495
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 6: for those four years, but he was an incumbent and

496
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 6: he did not get reelected. I listen, I know there

497
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,159
Speaker 6: was I'd like to I think there was cheating that

498
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 6: went on, but that doesn't matter. Dems hate him and

499
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 6: they will find a way to not get him elected.

500
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 6: And in fact, I'm even wondering if there's somebody deep

501
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 6: down in there that in the Democrat Party who is

502
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 6: exactly hoping that he ends up being the nominee.

503
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: Well, I hope that he's a nominee that if they

504
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 1: believe that. By the way, I mentioned earlier, Biden stumbled

505
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: on stage at the Air Force Academy. You know, remember,

506
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: in the pouring rain, Donald Trump was going down a

507
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 1: ramp without a rail with dress shoes on. Oh, he's

508
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: walking like an old man. No, he's walking like a

509
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: smart New Yorker that knows that those slick dress shoes

510
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: are going to send you on your ass if you're

511
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: not careful. Apparently Biden, you know, maybe he didn't realize

512
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: that there was a step, or maybe he thought there

513
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:34,400
Speaker 1: was one that's even worse. But anyway, look, I understand

514
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 1: your argument. Let me just let me just tell you

515
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: one thing, and I think this is important for everybody

516
00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: to know. Is I don't care who the candidate ends

517
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: up being right now, just let's let's put politics aside here.

518
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 1: Whoever the Republican candidate is, I promise you, I promise

519
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: you that they are going to be demonized by the

520
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,000
Speaker 1: media and by the left wing in this country. And

521
00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: the demonization is going to be brutal. That I can

522
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: promise you. And it's you know, Donald Trump has been

523
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: around longer, so they've gone after him longer. You know,

524
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: look at what it took all these years. What happened

525
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, We find out the answer to in

526
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty three, that three years it started in twenty sixteen,

527
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 1: you know, you know, six years later it took us

528
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: to find out that the FBI acted inappropriately without any

529
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: evidence at all, that they favored Hillary Clinton, that they

530
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 1: showed a double standard in their application of quote justice.

531
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: And Donald Trump never colluded with Russia, and nobody apologizes,

532
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: and even the media that promoted these false conspiracy theories

533
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: then never held accountable. So I mean there is a

534
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: little perspective to that. Is he a little bit combative? Yeah,

535
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,440
Speaker 1: he's combative, but he also secured the border. He also

536
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: kept China, Russia, Iran in Czech and North Korea in Czech.

537
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: He also, prior to COVID, was kicking ass with the economy,

538
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 1: setting one record low unemployment rate for every demographic group

539
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: in the country. He did get us energy and dependence,

540
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 1: and I think the world was a safer place, and

541
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: I think America was a more prosperous place. Not one

542
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 1: time during his presidency did a gallon of gasoling go

543
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: over three bucks a gallon. Not once. So does any

544
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: of that matter to you.

545
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 6: I don't disagree with anything you just said. Okay, yeah,

546
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 6: he is the only one that had us in energy

547
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,280
Speaker 6: and dependence. It was a beautiful thing. But it took

548
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 6: one day for all those for Biden to completely flip

549
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 6: us upside down. It took one day. I mean, forget

550
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 6: about the Oh my, well, look, what.

551
00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: Do you think about the Biden laptop? From this perspective,

552
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: we now know the FBI had the laptop, they verified

553
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: the authenticity of the laptop, and then they had weekly

554
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,320
Speaker 1: meetings with big Tech telling them that they may be

555
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: a victim of misinformation campaign and it may even be

556
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,120
Speaker 1: about Hunter Biden. Does that sound like election interference too?

557
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: Do you think if a America saw Hunter Biden's laptop,

558
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: as it was reported by the New York Post at

559
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 1: the time, that that would have had an impact on

560
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: that election?

561
00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 6: Yes, I definitely do think that, But I still feel

562
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 6: like there was kind of stolen even forgetting the people

563
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 6: who crossed over and who did vote for Biden. Like

564
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 6: even it's still I have to say, it still scares me.

565
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 1: Do you think it was a troublesome that Pardoner? What

566
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: if that states had laws where partisan observers, by law

567
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 1: get to watch the vote counting, and those laws there

568
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: was no accommodation made for those laws. Does that bother you?

569
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 4: Yeah?

570
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 6: That does bother me. And let me tell you though,

571
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 6: I was one of those those partisan observers in twenty

572
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 6: sixteen and in twenty twenty.

573
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: But you're in Florida. It's probably better for you.

574
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 6: I'd like to think so. But I mean I am

575
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 6: in Wasserman Schultz's district sadly so okay, But.

576
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 1: Were you able to watch the vote count up close

577
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: that you could see what the votes.

578
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 6: Were at the at the twenty twenty two it was

579
00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 6: a little.

580
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: Better, No, twenty twenty. Were you able to watch the

581
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 1: were you able to look at as you were well

582
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: by the way, they should have made accommodations and upheld

583
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: the law. That's my argument. You know, so I think

584
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 1: you know I want more election integrity measures. Look, I

585
00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: hear what you're saying. You're not the only person that

586
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 1: has said this to me. But we appreciate you and

587
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: glad you're out there. Thanks for calling and calling again.
