1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: Stay right here for our final news round up and 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: information overload. 3 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 2: All right, News round Up and Information Overload hour toll 4 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 2: free on numbers eight hundred and ninety four one sean 5 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:10,879 Speaker 2: if you want to be a part of the program. 6 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 2: Probably one of the most consequential transformational acts that will 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 2: prove itself over time that the President has made since 8 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 2: he's been elected is eliminating the Department of Education and 9 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: that will result in all likelihood block granting money to municipalities. 10 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 2: The President was very clear not states, but like different 11 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 2: areas of state, so that they can better ascertain how 12 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 2: to spend federal tax dollars on your child's education. And 13 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,199 Speaker 2: I think this just opens up a whole variety of 14 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 2: options for parents, not the least of which is, you know, 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 2: you can get a coalition of five parents and let's 16 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 2: say they're in New York State, they get thirty five 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: grand a year. You know, that's two hundred and eighty 18 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 2: thousand dollars for parents, and add another parent. You could 19 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: hire a teacher, and you know, for five kids, pay 20 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 2: a teacher a great amount of money, great benefits and 21 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 2: have you know, the interpersonal interactions that you want with 22 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 2: kids and socialization that you want with kids, but they're 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: going to focus I would bet my last dollar on reading, writing, math, science, 24 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 2: history and computers and not a woke agenda and not 25 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: you know, the the insanity of the left and their indoctrination. 26 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 2: And so I think this opens up so many different opportunities. 27 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: And we saw, for example, I mean, we paid and 28 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: this is the worst part, we paid more for capita 29 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: for student on education than any other country in the 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: industrialized world, and we have the worst results. We have 31 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: failed our kids spectacularly. And if you don't get a good, 32 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: solid education. I keep going back to Morgan Freeman and 33 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: that great scene on Lean On Me, you will be 34 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 2: shut out. The rungs to the ladder of success will 35 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 2: be ripped out from under you, and you're out. And 36 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: it is we're robbing these kids of all the talent 37 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: God gave them when they were born. And it is 38 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 2: unconscionable what we're doing. And we see this case for 39 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 2: example in Maryland argued last week before the Supreme Court 40 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 2: over the idea that that parents don't even have and 41 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: this was dealing with with nursery, school and kindergarteners and 42 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 2: books that we're dealing with trans issues and you know 43 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: LGBTQ issues, hindergarten and nursery school. I mean, I can't believe. 44 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 2: I've never thought i'd hear Supreme Court justices reading passages 45 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 2: from books that are read to these kids. That is like, 46 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: you know, over the top. And the argument is that 47 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: parents have the right to opt out. I think it 48 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: was very clear based on and I never want to 49 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 2: get ahead of where judges are going to go, but 50 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 2: it's it's pretty clear where this case is headed, and 51 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 2: that means that parents will have the right to opt out. 52 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 2: I personally prefer how about we opt in. How about 53 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 2: during the school day you focus on reading, writing, math, science, history, computers, 54 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,119 Speaker 2: and then if parents want to opt in after school 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: and let you know, some teacher you know educate their 56 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 2: kids on trans issues, sexual content, etc. Then let parents 57 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 2: opt in after school and stop wasting precious school time. 58 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 2: That's my idea. Now, in Oklahoma, they have a statewide 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 2: charter school board versus Drumming case that is now going 60 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: and anyway, Oklahoma should be able to choose the best 61 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 2: schools for their charter school program. The constitution prevents the 62 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 2: state from excluding schools simply because they are religious and anyway, 63 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 2: Oklahoma law creates a charter school program. It invites private 64 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: organizations to apply to operate charter schools in the state, 65 00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: except the state law says religious groups cannot participate. US 66 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: Supreme Court repeatedly is said that a state violates the 67 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: free exercise clause of the First Amendment if it establishes 68 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 2: a program but excludes otherwise qualified religious organizations. By the way, 69 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 2: in that case in Maryland, you had an interesting coalition 70 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 2: of different faiths, of people of the Christian faith, people 71 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: that were Muslim, people that were Jewish, all combining, all 72 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 2: agreeing on the principle that parents that lee should have 73 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 2: the option to opt out. We have Ericadonalds who's going 74 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 2: to join us in a minute. He goes through the 75 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 2: importance of the Supreme Court and how they must uphold 76 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: the right of parents in this particular case in other cases. Listen, well, 77 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 2: this case. 78 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: Is so important to uphold, as you said, the rights 79 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 3: of parents to direct the upbringing of their children, whether 80 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 3: that is religious, moral, character building, academic. We believe that 81 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 3: parents must be in the driver's seat. They have to 82 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 3: be decision made, and in this particular case there was 83 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 3: an opt out, but so many parents opted out of 84 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 3: this controversial curriculum which was being given to pre K 85 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 3: through sixth graders with radical gender ideology. 86 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: It was disruptive to the school day. 87 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 3: But instead of addressing the controversial curriculum and respecting parents' rights, 88 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 3: Montgomery County decided to take the opt out away completely 89 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 3: and fight it all the way to the Supreme Court. Really, 90 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 3: we should address that these are not age appropriate books 91 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: and why are they being embedded into the English curriculum 92 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 3: instead of a specifically sexual content curriculum that parents can 93 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 3: opt out of. There is an ideological bent here that 94 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 3: the school district is allowing through public tax dollars. Let's remember, 95 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 3: but this is why parents are opting out in a 96 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: different way and plummeting a district enrollments. Across the country, 97 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 3: fifty five percent, according to Gallup, are dissatisfied with the 98 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 3: American public school system. Parents are losing faith in the 99 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 3: ability to trust the public school system to uphold their 100 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 3: values and respect their religious liberties. 101 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 2: I lost faith in them a long time ago, anyway. 102 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: Erica Donalds is the chair of America First Policy Institute's 103 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 2: Center for Educational Opportunity. Welcome back, Erica let's talk about 104 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: this case more importantly, the importance of educational freedom, parental rights, 105 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 2: equal treatment of religious people and organizations. 106 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 4: Well, thanks again for having me Sean. It's always great 107 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 4: to talk to you, and I really appreciate you talking 108 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 4: about this important issue of upholding the rights of parents 109 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 4: to make decisions for their children. This is yet another 110 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 4: case that reinforces the fact that parents must be in 111 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 4: the driver's seat. The case I was just talking about 112 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 4: is the government schools trying to implement their own value 113 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 4: system and ideology into children's lives in a compulsory manner. 114 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 4: This case, or where I will be in front of 115 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 4: the Supreme Court tomorrow at the rally. The Drummond case, 116 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 4: which would allow parents to choose a religious virtual charter school, 117 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 4: is basically the opposite. It's allowing parents to opt into 118 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 4: a value system, a religious belief that they want their 119 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 4: children to learn. And so instead of Oklahoma siding with 120 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 4: parents and their ability to choose a high quality educational 121 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 4: environment for their children, they want to trap them in 122 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 4: an environment that they don't want, that is not working 123 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 4: for their students. We know the best thing is to 124 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 4: give parents the multitude of options that they deserve well. 125 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: I think this is a no brainer when you when 126 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: you heard the Supreme Court and the arguments that will 127 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: put for forward in the Maryland case, and you hear 128 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: justices you know, reading from these books that are designed 129 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: for pre k and kindergarten, and the sexual content and 130 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: controversial content of even transgenderism and LGBTQ. I mean to me, 131 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: values should be instilled by parents, not by school, not 132 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 2: by not by teachers that have an agenda. I mean, 133 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 2: I don't want people that have values that it are 134 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: contrary to mine instilling them in our kids. Now, they 135 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 2: have a right to demand the kids behave, but short 136 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 2: of that, that's not their job. As parents were not 137 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 2: potted plants, and yet. 138 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 4: Their messages were the experts. Parents, you don't belong here 139 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 4: in the school board chambers, in the classrooms telling us 140 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 4: what to teach and how to teach it. But parents 141 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 4: have had enough. They saw during COVID the ideology that 142 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 4: was being pushed upon their young children, and they don't 143 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 4: want it. I have long said that if you think 144 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 4: there's no quote religion taught in public schools, you're crazy. 145 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 4: They're teaching their own brand of progressive religion. Progressive values 146 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 4: on our children, and we absolutely had not only have 147 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 4: the ability to opt out of that and take the 148 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 4: funding with us, but. 149 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 2: To choose why do we have to opt out? Well, 150 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 2: why are we giving up our kids can't read and write? 151 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: They you know, there are schools all over the country 152 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: where kids are not at grade level in reading and 153 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 2: writing and math, And why are we taking precious time 154 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: away from those core subjects that will create the foundation 155 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 2: for them to be successful in their lives and wasting 156 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: time on a moral agenda that in many cases contradicts 157 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 2: the values of parents. Why are we wasting that time? 158 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 2: How about you opt in after school? Then you're going 159 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 2: to have all the transgenderism the parents want to opt into. 160 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I have run classical charter schools, and I can 161 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 4: tell you there is more classic literature in existence than 162 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 4: you can fit into thirteen years. Non controversial teaching values 163 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 4: that everyone can agree. We want our children to have resilience, courage, honesty. 164 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 4: There's plenty of those types of books to put into 165 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 4: the schools that would not be controversial. But that's not 166 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 4: their goal shot. Their goal is social engineering. They've been 167 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 4: doing it for decades. Wei and I you know, the 168 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 4: collective we conservatives have been asleep at the wheel. We've 169 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: been allowing it to happen. Now we've got to root 170 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 4: it out completely. Trump has done an amazing job over 171 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 4: the first one hundred days with a lot of his 172 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 4: executive orders and setting the tone from the top. But 173 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 4: it takes those of us on the ground, going to 174 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,200 Speaker 4: school board meetings and fighting these case by case every 175 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 4: time it shows itself to do exactly what you said, 176 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 4: opt in or opt out completely of the public schools 177 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 4: and take your money elsewhere to a private education for 178 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 4: your child. 179 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: You know, I was fortunate, especially in the grammar school 180 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: years of my kids, to send them to a private school. 181 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 2: And you know, because they were athletes, I ended up 182 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 2: sending them to a very good public school system. But 183 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 2: I always supplemented the education they got in school, and 184 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 2: they dedicated a lot of time to their sports, which 185 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 2: paid off for both of them in I think significant ways, 186 00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: and had tutors and all they focused on they' then 187 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 2: focus on, you knowvocism or transism or the Green New 188 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: Deal or LGBTQ plus anything. That's my job. I'm the parent, 189 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: and I instill my values in my kids, and then 190 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: when they become adults. They either accept it or reject it. 191 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 2: And goodness, my kids agree with everything I say. Not 192 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 2: really but mostly. 193 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 4: And Sean, every parent should have that opportunity. That's why 194 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 4: we fight so hard for school choice and true education 195 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: freedom in every state. Kudos to Texas that just passed 196 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: a huge school choice build is going to get signed 197 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 4: by the governor on Saturday. But more and more states 198 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 4: are turning to school choice to allow parents that same 199 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 4: opportunity to choose a private school environment that's best for 200 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 4: their child. Maybe homeschool, maybe online school, maybe some micro 201 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: school or co op. That is the direction that we 202 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 4: need to go in this country. And when parents are 203 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 4: choosing between options, not only will academic performance increase, which 204 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 4: has been proven through numerous studies, but they will also 205 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 4: be competing for aligning with the parents' values. Just as 206 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 4: we've been talking about, a school that a parent can 207 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 4: opt out of is not going to pull this kind 208 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 4: of crap hiding things from parents putting in controversial curriculum 209 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 4: because they'll lose the students and they'll lose the money. 210 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 2: I know you have to run, but we really appreciate 211 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: your time as always, Erica Donalds, thank you so much. 212 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:17,839 Speaker 2: For being with us. 213 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 4: Thanks for having me, Sean, anytime. 214 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 2: All right, quick break right back.

Trump had the best one hundred days. Brighton 226 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: had the worst four years and he said he never 227 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: met him. But wait a minute, he campaign for him. 228 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: And then you got all these judges on for all 229 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,920 Speaker 1: this crazy crap with the illegals. Sean, we can't go 230 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: on and on and talk about how dirty rats these 231 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: people are and how they just let the country down. 232 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 1: Thank God for Donald Trump. That man is of God, 233 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: saying man, and the Good Lord know we needed him 234 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 1: like a bad habit because of the fact that what 235 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats did to this country the four years Biden 236 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: was in there. The media just slipped it red under 237 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:35,319 Speaker 1: the bus. 238 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 5: I put it this way. 239 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 1: The media didn't take the banana out of the tailpipe. 240 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm being nice. 241 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 2: The media didn't take the banana out of the tailpipe, 242 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 2: and you're being nice. There's one way to put it. 243 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 2: You are a wordsmiths big time, no doubt about it. 244 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 2: But listen, I don't think what he's done more importantly. 245 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 2: And we have his greatest visible success on the borders 246 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 2: obviously and securing them and the deportation orders that keep 247 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: going out, but he has laid the foundation for American 248 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: economic success. I do believe we'll get to the issue 249 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 2: of free and fair trade. He's been willing to take 250 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 2: on that issue that no other president's been willing to 251 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: take on for fifty or sixty years. I do believe 252 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: we're now seeing the benefits of his energy programs. News 253 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 2: about that earlier today, which I touched on briefly in 254 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 2: the program. I mean the idea that America now is 255 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,360 Speaker 2: producing more energy already than they have before. And I 256 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 2: just think that, you know, given time, the President's going 257 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 2: to have a lot of wins and rack up a 258 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 2: lot of points with the American people. I think it's 259 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: going to be, you know, a very very exciting time 260 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 2: for the country to get back on track and return 261 00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 2: to constitutional order. Anyway, my friend, great to hear your voy. 262 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 2: We appreciate you as always, big time. AJA Houston, Texas. Hey, 263 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,000 Speaker 2: did you know, like here in the US, the Israel. 264 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 2: In Israel, they celebrate their own independence Day, and this 265 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 2: year's Israeli Independence Day has made the first. But for 266 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 2: the people of Israel, freedom is nothing more than a 267 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 2: daily struggle just to survive. They're fighting daily for their survival. 268 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 2: There is no peace, only terror. It's difficult to find 269 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: a lot of moments of joy when you're living in 270 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 2: so much suffering. And the Israeli government really has become 271 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: very reliant on our friends and partners at the International 272 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 2: Fellowship of Christians and Jews.

You know, they're 277 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 2: making sure they don't fall through the cracks. They're only 278 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: able to do this because of your life saving aid 279 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 2: and support, medicines, food, shelter, you name it. They need it. 280 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 2: Hearty meals, safety, comfort, and you're providing all that and 281 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: you know what, blessing the people of Israel.

He was a 340 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 2: cognitive mess from the get go, and it got progressively 341 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 2: worse and more obvious during the four years he was president, 342 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 2: to the point you just never would hardly ever see 343 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 2: or hear from him. And it was pathetic. And one 344 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: of his closest friends when he was a senator and 345 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:47,639 Speaker 2: vice president was Chris Coons of Delaware. And now everybody 346 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: is being asked after the the what do you call it? 347 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 2: You know, that stupid White House correspondence dinner where you 348 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 2: have did you see the pictures of poor Humpty Dumpty 349 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: on the train and he took his shoes off and 350 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 2: was walking around and Amtrak specifically says you can't walk 351 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: around with your shoes off. Wait on the train he 352 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 2: did that. I didn't see that. Oh yeah, oh you 353 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 2: got to see the pictures. There are priceless. I'll send 354 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: them to you. I know, I was going to show 355 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 2: it on TV less and I'm like, nobody even know. 356 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: They called them Humpty Dumpty in the post. It was 357 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 2: pretty funny. And you know, this is a guy that 358 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 2: just was obsessed with Fox twenty four to seven. He's 359 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: like a stalker anyway. But Chris Coogan's you know, claimed, 360 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 2: oh it was only Biden's debate performance that was the 361 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 2: first time he'd seen any obvious cognitive decline. I call 362 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: complete and total BS on all of them. They all 363 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 2: saw it, they all were worried about it. They all 364 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: they all lied and covered it up because they just 365 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 2: didn't want Republicans to win, or Donald Trump specifically to win. 366 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: That's what really happen. And anyone that says anything else, 367 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: I just call complete BS on all of them. Here's 368 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 2: Chris Coon's well. 369 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 6: John, Obviously, if I had any idea that President Biden 370 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 6: was going to perform as poorly as he did at 371 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 6: that debate, I would have been advising him differently and 372 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 6: advocating differently. That debate performance was the first time I 373 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 6: saw anything like that out of President Biden. He had 374 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 6: been and was a strong and capable president, and he 375 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 6: still had strong public performances, interviews, and just the next 376 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 6: day went to North Carolina and spoke forcefully at a rally. 377 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: But I was shocked. 378 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 6: I was genuinely surprised by that performance that even center 379 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 6: and was wrestling with what it meant for our path forward. 380 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 2: Oh, struggling wrestly. Yeah, looks. 381 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:05,880 Speaker 7: Some of the political players and some of them, let 382 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 7: me ask rhetorical. 383 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 2: Question, it was that bad, and it was that bad 384 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 2: for years. It's amazing we survived this, and then you 385 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,240 Speaker 2: got little Chucky Todd. I guess you know no longer 386 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 2: at MSDNC, and I guess trying to create relevance. He's 387 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 2: so angry at a right wing manufactured claim that the 388 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 2: media covered up Biden's decline. They did cover it up, 389 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 2: they hit it, they didn't focus on it. If it 390 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 2: was Donald Trump, you know they would have Listen. 391 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 8: This is not a media failure. This is a failure 392 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 8: of the Democratic Party. And I just sort of sort 393 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 8: of the virtue signaling that some people have done to 394 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 8: try to say that the media missed the story. They 395 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 8: didn't miss this story. David Ignatius wrote, I just refuse 396 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,360 Speaker 8: to accept this, this stupid premise, because it's a right 397 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 8: wing manufactured, right wing premise in order to stay in 398 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 8: the media, the media has got plenty of things to 399 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 8: attack them for. And there are MSNBC and CNN and 400 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 8: pundits that absolutely carried water for Joe Biden. But they're 401 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 8: not journalists. They're former strategists that carried water for Joe Biden. 402 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 8: The journalist David Ignatius wrote a very high profile column 403 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 8: in October of twenty three saying, is he really running again? 404 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 8: This doesn't seem like a good idea. People like me 405 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 8: were promoting Dean Phillips's campaign because he was running set 406 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 8: So you know, it's not like this. This isn't WMD's 407 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 8: where the White House worked with the mainstream media to 408 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:47,239 Speaker 8: manufacture a story that did not exist. That was a 409 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 8: press failure, massive press failure. This was not that failure. 410 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 5: This is an. 411 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 8: Attempt by some to virtue signal and it's this horrible 412 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,880 Speaker 8: sort of pitting different news organizations against each other, when 413 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 8: ultimately the people at fault are Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, 414 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 8: Jill Biden, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, every elected member of Congress. 415 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 2: By the way, he's no Tim Rusher. That's why he's gone. 416 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 2: This isn't and it's pretty pathetic. Eight hundred nine one, 417 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 2: Shawn is a number if you want to be a 418 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,439 Speaker 2: part of the program. All right, let's get to our 419 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 2: busy phones as we say hi to Ted and Arizona. Ted, Hi, 420 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 2: how are you glad you. 421 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 5: Called sean king of the world. 422 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 2: Man, I'm not the king of anything. I'm the king 423 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 2: of my own mind. What's going on? Only one king 424 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 2: that's Jesus, not me. 425 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 5: I know he is the savior. 426 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: Hey man, what's going on. 427 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 5: They've got to stop the deportations. Please stop the deportations. 428 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 5: I'm losing my businesses up here in the North. If 429 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 5: Bernie and I cannot make it happen, we're losing our employees. 430 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: Oh so you want the cheap labor, and you don't 431 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 2: really care if these unvetted Biden harrise the illegals. Have 432 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 2: you know terror associations or cartel members or gang members 433 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 2: or murderers or rapists. We don't know anything about them. 434 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 2: You want the cheap labor. I know you're being facetious 435 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: invading taxes. 436 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 5: I don't have to pay taxes on them. I don't 437 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 5: have to. Please stop the deportations. 438 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 2: So you want to be your own benefit. I look, 439 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:42,880 Speaker 2: there is some truth to what you're saying. There are 440 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 2: people and Republicans too, that have always wanted cheap labor, 441 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 2: and I get it. I understand you want to lower 442 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 2: your costs as much as possible. Look in a sense, 443 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 2: I run my own business, and what are the things 444 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 2: things that I have never a practice I've never really 445 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 2: engaged in, is is not paying people. What I you know, 446 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 2: a decent, well earned wage. And I expect a lot 447 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 2: from people that I hire. I just do if you 448 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 2: work in this industry, if you work on my radio 449 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: show or TV show, you better be ready to roll 450 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: up your sleeves and get to work every day. And 451 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 2: I try to, you know, be nice to people and 452 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: give them the latitude that they need to do the 453 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 2: things that are important to them. And you know, I 454 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: learned very quickly what people's strengths and weaknesses are. And 455 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 2: you know, as long as the job gets done, I 456 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 2: try to be as hands off as possible, you know, 457 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 2: for those people that you know, if you're doing whatever, 458 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 2: whatever task it might be that maybe doesn't require a 459 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 2: lot of thought or education. I'm sorry. I just you know, 460 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to pay the right and pay American 461 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 2: workers and not take advantage of the system and do 462 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: things legally. That's it. You know, it's not that much 463 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 2: to ask. Appreciate the call ed thank you. Let's say 464 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 2: hi to Michael Texas. God bless Texas. Michael. 465 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 7: How are you just fine? Thank you for letting me 466 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 7: get my voice out there on this immigration policy here 467 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 7: in Texas. I don't know if it's still on the books, 468 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 7: because I don't have access to a law library, just 469 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 7: to online stuff that you read. But we have a 470 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 7: law here that makes it illegal to hire, rent to 471 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 7: or give any kind of aid. Tell somebody where to 472 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 7: get aid if you're here here illegally. Now, if we 473 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 7: took and made that a national law and find the 474 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 7: owners of the companies that are hiring them, say five 475 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 7: thousand dollars per person, the people that are renting to them, 476 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 7: find them five thousand dollars per person, they would let 477 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 7: these people go. The people would not have any reason 478 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 7: to stay here, and they would self the port without 479 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 7: taxpayer money funding it. Now, that's pure and simple. I 480 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 7: don't know why they haven't. Governor Gregg hasn't enforced this law, 481 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 7: But we have a lot and it is both sides 482 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 7: of the Isle, Democrat and Republicans. They both own ranches 483 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 7: and farms down here, and they all use illegals. Now, 484 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 7: I'm speaking as a retired forty five year construction worker, 485 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 7: and every time a president gave amnesty to all of 486 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 7: these millions of illegals down through the year, guess what, 487 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 7: I was out of a job and it got so 488 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 7: bad that I couldn't get a job non union. So 489 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 7: I joined the union, and I really didn't want to 490 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,960 Speaker 7: because I'm not a socialist. I'm not a communist, but 491 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 7: I needed a job and that was the only place 492 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 7: that I could get a job. Now, if we get 493 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 7: rid of all of these illegals, yes, it's going to 494 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 7: hurt some restaurants and some packing industries for a little while. 495 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 7: It'll force them to raise their wages up to something 496 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 7: that somebody can actually live on, and solve the problem 497 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 7: without our taxpayer money. 498 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: Listen, I'm just going to tell you right now, it's 499 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 2: very very simple. First, we do it for national safety 500 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 2: and security. Second, if you don't have borders, you don't 501 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 2: have a country. Third, we are a nation governed by 502 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 2: the rule of law, and if you want to come 503 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 2: into our country, I really have no problem with it. 504 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: I think we need a background check, knowing that there 505 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 2: are enemies of our country that would like to commit 506 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 2: violent acts against Americans and acts of terrorism against our country. 507 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 2: Then after, in a post COVID world, I would say, 508 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 2: we absolutely positively need some type of health check, and 509 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 2: then then we've got a means test. People. You cannot 510 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 2: be a financial burden on the American people. I mean 511 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 2: the amount of money that we're spending billions of dollars, 512 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 2: for example, on healthcare. And then you've got the impact 513 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 2: it's having on the educational system and the criminal justice system. 514 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: And then worse than you have people unvetted in the 515 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: country that are capable of committing you know, great murder 516 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 2: and another violent crimes. Oh right, so we've got to 517 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 2: get control of it. 518 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 7: I've had to deal with them. Go into the laundry 519 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 7: mat and put my laundry in to dry, and go 520 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 7: out and sit in my vehicles, or read a book 521 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 7: and go back in and lo and behold, I'm instead 522 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 7: of five pairs of pants I have in there, there's 523 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 7: only three pairs of pants. So you know, the people 524 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 7: coming from poor countries basically are all thieves of opportunity. 525 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 7: They may not go out looking for it, but if 526 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 7: the opportunity rises, they will take it. But now they're 527 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,959 Speaker 7: taking our jobs. And like I say, I ended up 528 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 7: having to join the union, and I ended up working 529 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 7: at a union contractor that was actually using illegal aliens. 530 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 7: So if we passed the law and find the owners 531 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 7: of the company, not anybody else, just the owners of 532 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 7: the company, five thousand dollars per person. You watch them 533 00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 7: beat feet to Mexico in a hurry, they'll go back 534 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 7: across the border so fast. 535 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: Well, right now, they have an opportunity that they've given 536 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 2: and I forget what the deadline is, that they can 537 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 2: self deport, and if they self deport, they'd have a 538 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 2: chance to come back to the country. If they don't 539 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: self deport, they'll never have that chance again. And then 540 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: when they are deported, it's over for them. Anyway. I 541 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 2: have to run. I do appreciate your call.
