Good evening and welcome to 4 00:00:28,377 --> 00:00:31,137 Speaker 1: hold the line. Buck Sexton is out, but I'm Rob 5 00:00:31,177 --> 00:00:33,057 Speaker 1: Smith and if you like me, here check out my 6 00:00:33,137 --> 00:00:38,217 Speaker 1: new podcast. Can't cancel Rob Smith. Many things are happening 7 00:00:38,217 --> 00:00:41,057 Speaker 1: in America right now, and none of them are good. 8 00:00:41,337 --> 00:00:45,297 Speaker 1: Inflation is raging, gas prices are hitting all time highs, 9 00:00:45,417 --> 00:00:49,537 Speaker 1: your groceries are almost certainly getting more expensive, and if 10 00:00:49,577 --> 00:00:53,417 Speaker 1: you're a mother, you're probably having a very hard time 11 00:00:53,537 --> 00:00:57,057 Speaker 1: finding baby formula. But if you're one of the tens 12 00:00:57,057 --> 00:01:01,297 Speaker 1: of thousands illegal immigrants that are streaming across our borders 13 00:01:01,417 --> 00:01:03,857 Speaker 1: right now, you're not going to have a whole lot 14 00:01:03,897 --> 00:01:07,537 Speaker 1: of trouble finding baby formula, because there are literally palettes 15 00:01:07,657 --> 00:01:10,977 Speaker 1: and palettes of them down there the border right now. 16 00:01:11,697 --> 00:01:14,417 Speaker 1: But if you cared deeply about America, as many of 17 00:01:14,457 --> 00:01:17,977 Speaker 1: the politicians we've elected claim to, you'd probably be searching 18 00:01:18,017 --> 00:01:21,137 Speaker 1: around and looking for solutions to the problems we're facing, 19 00:01:21,217 --> 00:01:25,537 Speaker 1: perhaps maybe getting serious and calling out and possibly removing 20 00:01:25,817 --> 00:01:29,897 Speaker 1: the senile, bumbling disaster who stumbles across words on the 21 00:01:29,897 --> 00:01:33,577 Speaker 1: teleprompter he's reading from on the fake set where he 22 00:01:33,657 --> 00:01:36,897 Speaker 1: pretends to be the president. Of course, I am talking 23 00:01:36,937 --> 00:01:40,537 Speaker 1: about none other than Joe Biden, the person that is 24 00:01:40,577 --> 00:01:45,457 Speaker 1: currently running this country into the ground, the person who 25 00:01:45,577 --> 00:01:49,497 Speaker 1: got eighty one million votes. And you had better not 26 00:01:49,617 --> 00:01:53,817 Speaker 1: questioned that at all, or else you'll be charged with misinformation. 27 00:01:54,697 --> 00:01:57,657 Speaker 1: But also, if you cared about America, perhaps you'd be 28 00:01:57,697 --> 00:02:00,937 Speaker 1: coordinating with local governments or even food banks to see 29 00:02:00,937 --> 00:02:02,897 Speaker 1: if you can get baby formula to the mothers who 30 00:02:02,937 --> 00:02:05,697 Speaker 1: desperately need it. Maybe you'd be taking a few trips 31 00:02:05,697 --> 00:02:08,497 Speaker 1: to the border so that the American public can see 32 00:02:08,497 --> 00:02:12,337 Speaker 1: with their own eyes the disaster that unfolds every day. 33 00:02:12,457 --> 00:02:16,217 Speaker 1: As like I said, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants 34 00:02:16,417 --> 00:02:19,977 Speaker 1: fled into this country and disappear into other cities with 35 00:02:20,057 --> 00:02:24,337 Speaker 1: the help of taxpayer funded buses, airplanes, and cell phones. 36 00:02:24,617 --> 00:02:28,377 Speaker 1: But our politicians are doing none of these things. Instead, 37 00:02:28,977 --> 00:02:33,137 Speaker 1: they just voted to send forty billion more of your 38 00:02:33,217 --> 00:02:36,617 Speaker 1: taxpayer dollars to the Ukraine. This is an addition to 39 00:02:36,737 --> 00:02:40,817 Speaker 1: the fourteen billion dollars that we have already sent. Here 40 00:02:41,177 --> 00:02:43,777 Speaker 1: is one of the most useless of them, Mitch McConnell, 41 00:02:44,457 --> 00:02:48,337 Speaker 1: I think we all agreed the most important thing going 42 00:02:48,377 --> 00:02:50,937 Speaker 1: on in the world right now is the war in Ukraine. 43 00:02:52,097 --> 00:02:54,257 Speaker 1: I had a chance to call him, the President last week, 44 00:02:54,537 --> 00:02:59,777 Speaker 1: and request with the Ukraine package moved by it shelf 45 00:03:01,057 --> 00:03:04,697 Speaker 1: and quickly, he should let me think it over. He 46 00:03:04,817 --> 00:03:10,177 Speaker 1: called back in about fifteen minutes and agreed that we 47 00:03:10,217 --> 00:03:15,577 Speaker 1: need to do this Ukraine only and quickly. I think 48 00:03:15,737 --> 00:03:18,617 Speaker 1: we're on the path of getting that done. Discussions are 49 00:03:18,697 --> 00:03:23,057 Speaker 1: underway between the House and shunted appropriators on the crafting 50 00:03:23,057 --> 00:03:26,737 Speaker 1: of the package. It made to be claim of extrinance 51 00:03:26,817 --> 00:03:33,297 Speaker 1: matters directly related to helping the Ukrainians when the war. Well, no, 52 00:03:33,337 --> 00:03:35,857 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, I actually do not think that the war 53 00:03:35,977 --> 00:03:38,257 Speaker 1: in Ukraine is the most important thing happening in the 54 00:03:38,257 --> 00:03:41,537 Speaker 1: world right now. And I would gather that the Americans 55 00:03:41,537 --> 00:03:44,417 Speaker 1: that are hurting right now would not agree either. But 56 00:03:44,537 --> 00:03:47,377 Speaker 1: seeing Mitch McConnell waddle to the podium and talk about 57 00:03:47,417 --> 00:03:50,377 Speaker 1: how we desperately need to send more money to Ukraine 58 00:03:50,457 --> 00:03:53,377 Speaker 1: right now is as infuriating as much as it is 59 00:03:53,537 --> 00:03:58,057 Speaker 1: totally absurd, And your favorite politicians will not answer to 60 00:03:58,177 --> 00:04:02,177 Speaker 1: their vote at all. Of course, fifty seven brave Republicans 61 00:04:02,217 --> 00:04:05,097 Speaker 1: voted against the forty billion dollars to the Ukraine. But 62 00:04:05,217 --> 00:04:08,057 Speaker 1: you probably couldn't pick most of them out of a lineup. 63 00:04:08,137 --> 00:04:10,857 Speaker 1: But here's something you may have heard of. People like 64 00:04:11,017 --> 00:04:15,217 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green, people like Madison Cawthorne, Lauren Bulbert, and 65 00:04:15,297 --> 00:04:18,817 Speaker 1: Matt Gates. Some of these people are being attacked viciously 66 00:04:18,977 --> 00:04:22,497 Speaker 1: as we speak, and trust and believe those attacks are 67 00:04:22,537 --> 00:04:26,497 Speaker 1: coming from the left and the right. You see these 68 00:04:26,657 --> 00:04:31,777 Speaker 1: politicians and the mainstream media from all sides. They seem 69 00:04:31,817 --> 00:04:35,177 Speaker 1: to be wanting to tell you that these people are evil. 70 00:04:35,217 --> 00:04:37,737 Speaker 1: They want to tell you that Marjorie Taylor Green is racist. 71 00:04:38,057 --> 00:04:41,977 Speaker 1: They want to leak embarrassing videos of Madison Cawthorne. They 72 00:04:42,017 --> 00:04:45,257 Speaker 1: want you to think that Lauren Bobert and Matt Gates 73 00:04:45,297 --> 00:04:48,457 Speaker 1: are completely insane, when there are a few of the 74 00:04:48,657 --> 00:04:53,297 Speaker 1: brave souls who are actually fighting against this money being 75 00:04:53,377 --> 00:04:57,097 Speaker 1: laundered to the Ukraine. They're actually fighting against the swamp, 76 00:04:57,377 --> 00:05:00,497 Speaker 1: which includes people like Mitch McConnell, who are so far 77 00:05:00,617 --> 00:05:05,817 Speaker 1: removed from the problems and issues that the average Americans 78 00:05:05,857 --> 00:05:08,577 Speaker 1: are facing. He can go up and save with a 79 00:05:08,617 --> 00:05:11,297 Speaker 1: straight face that the war in Ukraine is the most 80 00:05:11,297 --> 00:05:13,617 Speaker 1: important thing happening in the world right now. Tell that 81 00:05:13,657 --> 00:05:17,817 Speaker 1: to a mother that cannot find baby formula for her child. 82 00:05:17,937 --> 00:05:21,457 Speaker 1: Tell that to somebody that cannot afford to put gas 83 00:05:21,497 --> 00:05:23,937 Speaker 1: in their tank to go to work so that they 84 00:05:23,937 --> 00:05:27,337 Speaker 1: can earn money to buy the groceries that are more 85 00:05:27,377 --> 00:05:31,337 Speaker 1: expensive than they have been in years. So back to 86 00:05:31,417 --> 00:05:35,337 Speaker 1: those politicians the Madison call thorns, the Marjorie Taylor Greens 87 00:05:35,337 --> 00:05:38,737 Speaker 1: of the world. These politicians are what Joe Biden would 88 00:05:38,777 --> 00:05:48,857 Speaker 1: call ultra maga. I never expected the ultra maga Republicans 89 00:05:49,577 --> 00:05:53,377 Speaker 1: who seem to control the Republican Party now to have 90 00:05:53,537 --> 00:05:57,937 Speaker 1: been able to control the Republican Party. I never anticipated 91 00:05:57,977 --> 00:06:02,257 Speaker 1: that happening. So what does ultramaga even me? And I 92 00:06:02,297 --> 00:06:05,657 Speaker 1: don't know. It's it's something that obviously the press shop 93 00:06:05,737 --> 00:06:08,297 Speaker 1: came up with Joe Biden to create some sort of 94 00:06:08,337 --> 00:06:11,137 Speaker 1: talking point and make it seem like it's a bad thing. 95 00:06:11,537 --> 00:06:13,977 Speaker 1: Biden obviously thinks this is a bad thing, but lots 96 00:06:14,017 --> 00:06:17,137 Speaker 1: of us think this is a good thing. It means 97 00:06:17,297 --> 00:06:20,337 Speaker 1: putting America first. It means trying to do something to 98 00:06:20,377 --> 00:06:23,657 Speaker 1: help the citizens of this country who are struggling right 99 00:06:23,697 --> 00:06:26,857 Speaker 1: now you know. Biden entered office a year and a 100 00:06:26,897 --> 00:06:30,577 Speaker 1: half ago, and I remember watching that speech where he 101 00:06:30,697 --> 00:06:33,737 Speaker 1: promised to be the great uniter. He was going to 102 00:06:33,777 --> 00:06:37,737 Speaker 1: be the one to bring the country back together after 103 00:06:37,817 --> 00:06:41,737 Speaker 1: the horrors of Donald Trump, the mean old Orange man 104 00:06:42,097 --> 00:06:45,817 Speaker 1: who divided us all but Joe Biden has done nothing 105 00:06:45,857 --> 00:06:51,337 Speaker 1: but divide, seeking to distract Americans from exploding inflation, high 106 00:06:51,377 --> 00:06:55,497 Speaker 1: gas prices, and outrageous grocery prices by making them look 107 00:06:55,577 --> 00:06:58,537 Speaker 1: at their neighbor who may have voted differently from them, 108 00:06:58,737 --> 00:07:03,337 Speaker 1: with scorn, fear, and suspicion. And back to Ultramaga. These 109 00:07:03,417 --> 00:07:06,057 Speaker 1: people who have the guts to vote against forty billion 110 00:07:06,097 --> 00:07:09,617 Speaker 1: dollars to Ukraine are Ultramaga. And that's not a bad thing. 111 00:07:10,337 --> 00:07:14,057 Speaker 1: Not a big proponent of fangirling politicians. These people serve us, 112 00:07:14,337 --> 00:07:17,377 Speaker 1: and most aren't worthy of the adulation they get. Yet 113 00:07:17,897 --> 00:07:21,017 Speaker 1: when you have members of Congress bold enough to stand 114 00:07:21,097 --> 00:07:23,497 Speaker 1: up to the swamp creatures that seek to launder our 115 00:07:23,537 --> 00:07:26,857 Speaker 1: money to the Ukraine, you have to say something about it. 116 00:07:26,897 --> 00:07:32,297 Speaker 1: So well done, congressmen and congresswomen. And what about the 117 00:07:32,297 --> 00:07:34,737 Speaker 1: ones who actually voted for this atrocity, the ones that 118 00:07:34,777 --> 00:07:37,257 Speaker 1: are fighting so hard for you. They can barely breathe 119 00:07:37,257 --> 00:07:41,537 Speaker 1: Between the dinners in DC, the private jets, and the fundraisers. 120 00:07:42,017 --> 00:07:44,777 Speaker 1: These people sit in the halls of Congress doing absolutely 121 00:07:44,817 --> 00:07:49,217 Speaker 1: nothing but playing the game, enriching themselves and becoming even 122 00:07:49,337 --> 00:07:53,657 Speaker 1: more deeply entrenched in the swamp. They vote to send 123 00:07:53,777 --> 00:07:57,657 Speaker 1: forty billion dollars to the Ukraine, and they will not 124 00:07:57,817 --> 00:08:00,977 Speaker 1: say a word about it. They're not draining the swamp. 125 00:08:01,017 --> 00:08:03,217 Speaker 1: They are the swamp. And that's not going to change 126 00:08:03,217 --> 00:08:05,977 Speaker 1: anytime soon. So what do we need to start doing 127 00:08:05,977 --> 00:08:08,657 Speaker 1: as conservatives? We need to start actually looking at what 128 00:08:08,697 --> 00:08:12,577 Speaker 1: are like to representatives do, not just not along while 129 00:08:12,617 --> 00:08:18,057 Speaker 1: they repeat the latest online talking points. So what's the answer. 130 00:08:18,897 --> 00:08:23,457 Speaker 1: The answer is to go local. The unprecedented uprising you've 131 00:08:23,457 --> 00:08:26,057 Speaker 1: seen coming from parents all across the country who are 132 00:08:26,097 --> 00:08:29,057 Speaker 1: fed up with school systems and doctrinating their kids did 133 00:08:29,097 --> 00:08:32,897 Speaker 1: not start in the swamp. It started with normal people 134 00:08:33,097 --> 00:08:36,257 Speaker 1: like you and I who don't live their lives by 135 00:08:36,297 --> 00:08:39,417 Speaker 1: the whims of the DC swamp or what Kevin McCarthy 136 00:08:39,537 --> 00:08:43,177 Speaker 1: and Mitch McConnell tell them to do. When something like 137 00:08:43,257 --> 00:08:46,697 Speaker 1: this ridiculous forty billion dollars to Ukraine comes out of DC, 138 00:08:47,057 --> 00:08:49,497 Speaker 1: The answer isn't to throw your hands up and give up. 139 00:08:49,977 --> 00:08:52,977 Speaker 1: The answer is continue fighting. But the fight isn't in 140 00:08:53,097 --> 00:08:56,097 Speaker 1: DC or the halls of Congress. To fight is in 141 00:08:56,137 --> 00:09:00,737 Speaker 1: your backyard. What I know for sure is that this 142 00:09:00,777 --> 00:09:04,177 Speaker 1: country will not be saved by people playing in the swamp. 143 00:09:04,857 --> 00:09:07,497 Speaker 1: It will be saved by people like you running for 144 00:09:07,697 --> 00:09:10,777 Speaker 1: and taking positions in local races. It's been showing up 145 00:09:10,777 --> 00:09:13,337 Speaker 1: for your local school board, your local commissioner role, your 146 00:09:13,377 --> 00:09:16,857 Speaker 1: local city council position. You will be able to make 147 00:09:17,097 --> 00:09:20,017 Speaker 1: so much more change than the people who pretend they're 148 00:09:20,017 --> 00:09:22,817 Speaker 1: going to change anything at all in Washington, DC. And 149 00:09:22,977 --> 00:09:26,457 Speaker 1: take your money that help them do absolutely nothing. Oh 150 00:09:26,497 --> 00:09:29,257 Speaker 1: wait a minute, they don't do nothing. They send forty 151 00:09:29,377 --> 00:09:32,977 Speaker 1: billion dollars of our money to the Ukraine. Think about 152 00:09:33,017 --> 00:09:35,497 Speaker 1: how that money can be spent to help us right 153 00:09:35,537 --> 00:09:39,257 Speaker 1: here in the USA. And think long and hard about 154 00:09:39,257 --> 00:09:43,097 Speaker 1: who you're electing to represent us in Washington, d C. 155 00:09:45,657 --> 00:09:48,137 Speaker 1: All right, we'll have more on the forty billion dollars 156 00:09:48,137 --> 00:09:50,297 Speaker 1: in funding for the war in Ukraine with the vice 157 00:09:50,497 --> 00:09:54,777 Speaker 1: chairman of the America First Policy Institute Center for American Security, 158 00:09:54,857 --> 00:09:59,937 Speaker 1: Fred Flights.

I'm 183 00:11:27,377 --> 00:11:30,977 Speaker 1: Rob Smith filling in for Buck Sexton. Washington is proving 184 00:11:31,017 --> 00:11:33,977 Speaker 1: once again they could not care less about americans problems, 185 00:11:34,297 --> 00:11:38,977 Speaker 1: rising gas prices, soaring inflation, baby formula shortages.

Joining me now is vice chairman of America 188 00:11:45,657 --> 00:11:49,177 Speaker 1: First Policy Institute and former National Security Council Chief of 189 00:11:49,217 --> 00:11:54,137 Speaker 1: Staff Fred Flights. How you doing, Fred? Good? Beer good 190 00:11:54,137 --> 00:11:56,857 Speaker 1: good good so so, First of all, let me ask you, 191 00:11:56,857 --> 00:11:58,617 Speaker 1: you know, seeing side of the vice chairman of the 192 00:11:58,657 --> 00:12:02,817 Speaker 1: America First Policy Institute, how would you describe America first 193 00:12:02,897 --> 00:12:05,337 Speaker 1: to our viewers who may not have heard of that term, 194 00:12:06,857 --> 00:12:09,257 Speaker 1: or America first as a concept to try to put 195 00:12:09,297 --> 00:12:12,657 Speaker 1: the interest of the American people, the American economy, the 196 00:12:12,697 --> 00:12:18,577 Speaker 1: American worker first. When policymakers make domestic or foreign policy decisions, 197 00:12:18,577 --> 00:12:21,457 Speaker 1: and in the foreign policy realm, it means not deferring 198 00:12:21,497 --> 00:12:25,457 Speaker 1: to the foreign policy elite and Harvard's JFK School, and 199 00:12:25,777 --> 00:12:29,257 Speaker 1: then you get good decisions, like when President Trump moved 200 00:12:29,297 --> 00:12:32,817 Speaker 1: the US embassy to Jerusalem. All the experts said not 201 00:12:32,857 --> 00:12:34,297 Speaker 1: to do that, it would start a war, but it 202 00:12:34,337 --> 00:12:36,337 Speaker 1: was the right thing to do. It means keeping us 203 00:12:36,377 --> 00:12:40,857 Speaker 1: out of unnecessary wars. It means a strong US military, 204 00:12:41,217 --> 00:12:44,457 Speaker 1: a strong military, a strong president president, because we know 205 00:12:44,577 --> 00:12:48,977 Speaker 1: American strength stabilizes the world and reduces the chances that 206 00:12:49,057 --> 00:12:51,737 Speaker 1: will be tempted to send troops where we should not 207 00:12:51,817 --> 00:12:54,657 Speaker 1: be sending them. We want to keep our troops out 208 00:12:54,697 --> 00:12:58,137 Speaker 1: of areas where we have no strategic interests. Absolutely, I'm 209 00:12:58,217 --> 00:13:00,737 Speaker 1: definitely with you on that. I'm a rockwarre veteran myself. 210 00:13:00,777 --> 00:13:03,577 Speaker 1: I'm definitely against, you know, useless foreign wars. Now, I 211 00:13:03,577 --> 00:13:06,657 Speaker 1: want to get your take on this forty billion dollars 212 00:13:06,697 --> 00:13:09,177 Speaker 1: that you know Congress has voted I'm to send the Ukraine. 213 00:13:09,177 --> 00:13:11,457 Speaker 1: I'm obviously very much against that sort of let into 214 00:13:11,537 --> 00:13:13,777 Speaker 1: it early on the show. So I want to get 215 00:13:13,897 --> 00:13:16,617 Speaker 1: your take on this, and I want to know does 216 00:13:16,657 --> 00:13:18,937 Speaker 1: voting for forty billion dollars to go to the Ukraine 217 00:13:18,977 --> 00:13:23,897 Speaker 1: seemed very America First in your opinion, Well, it's funny 218 00:13:23,977 --> 00:13:26,617 Speaker 1: some people have said that the American First Movement is 219 00:13:26,617 --> 00:13:29,417 Speaker 1: against helping the people of Ukraine, that we shouldn't be 220 00:13:29,737 --> 00:13:32,657 Speaker 1: sending weapons there. Well, General Keith Callogg my colleague, and 221 00:13:32,697 --> 00:13:35,817 Speaker 1: I hear. We think that it's important that the Ukrainians 222 00:13:35,857 --> 00:13:39,697 Speaker 1: be armed, extremely well, armed to the teeth because we 223 00:13:39,737 --> 00:13:41,857 Speaker 1: are at a turning point in this war. If the 224 00:13:41,937 --> 00:13:44,897 Speaker 1: Ukrainians could hold her own and maybe beat back the 225 00:13:44,977 --> 00:13:47,657 Speaker 1: Russians bit, I think we may find a solution to 226 00:13:47,697 --> 00:13:49,577 Speaker 1: this conflict. I know if there'll be a peace treaty, 227 00:13:49,817 --> 00:13:52,377 Speaker 1: but I'm hoping that the fighting will peter out and 228 00:13:52,457 --> 00:13:55,137 Speaker 1: we will stop the killing. But if we give Russian 229 00:13:55,257 --> 00:13:59,177 Speaker 1: opportunity to regroup, I think the war could go on indefinitely. 230 00:13:59,457 --> 00:14:01,257 Speaker 1: So I'm not with you on this one. I think 231 00:14:01,297 --> 00:14:03,537 Speaker 1: that these weapons are a good idea, But I do 232 00:14:03,657 --> 00:14:06,697 Speaker 1: like Grand Paul's idea to have an inspect your general 233 00:14:07,217 --> 00:14:09,977 Speaker 1: to monitor the spending and make sure that this money 234 00:14:10,137 --> 00:14:13,777 Speaker 1: goes where we think it's going. Absolutely, And so let 235 00:14:13,777 --> 00:14:16,377 Speaker 1: me ask you this, when you talk about monitoring the spending, now, 236 00:14:16,417 --> 00:14:17,977 Speaker 1: a lot of the people that are against us, and 237 00:14:18,017 --> 00:14:20,937 Speaker 1: you know, including myself, and I brought up the names 238 00:14:20,937 --> 00:14:23,257 Speaker 1: of a couple of congressmen and women, Matt Gates, Marjorie 239 00:14:23,297 --> 00:14:26,217 Speaker 1: Taylor Green, I'm Madison Cawthorne that voted against this forty 240 00:14:26,217 --> 00:14:29,577 Speaker 1: billion dollars. What is the oversight of this money? I 241 00:14:29,577 --> 00:14:31,617 Speaker 1: think that that's what a lot of people are trying 242 00:14:31,617 --> 00:14:35,097 Speaker 1: to figure out. How do we know and how do 243 00:14:35,137 --> 00:14:40,097 Speaker 1: we keep track of where this money is going? Well, 244 00:14:40,297 --> 00:14:44,137 Speaker 1: I think that that's a question that needs to be answered. 245 00:14:44,177 --> 00:14:46,097 Speaker 1: I don't know how it's being overseen. I don't know 246 00:14:46,137 --> 00:14:49,937 Speaker 1: that that doesn't mean it's being overseen, but I think 247 00:14:50,297 --> 00:14:54,097 Speaker 1: Senator Paul suggestion for an inspector general to monitor it, 248 00:14:54,257 --> 00:14:56,257 Speaker 1: that seems to be a good compromise. If that's all 249 00:14:56,297 --> 00:14:57,977 Speaker 1: he needs to vote for this, Oh, my dad, I 250 00:14:57,977 --> 00:15:00,217 Speaker 1: don't think he's going to vote for it anyway. I 251 00:15:00,217 --> 00:15:03,017 Speaker 1: think that was why suggestion, because in a situation like this, 252 00:15:03,257 --> 00:15:06,537 Speaker 1: who knows where the money is going? So you think 253 00:15:06,537 --> 00:15:08,537 Speaker 1: that at this point, so we have voted for the 254 00:15:08,537 --> 00:15:10,817 Speaker 1: forty billion dollars through Congress, and this is something that 255 00:15:10,897 --> 00:15:13,857 Speaker 1: Rampaul is saying that this is something that he needs 256 00:15:13,857 --> 00:15:16,577 Speaker 1: in order to pass us in the Senate. So you 257 00:15:16,617 --> 00:15:18,777 Speaker 1: think that that will be a good compromise for a 258 00:15:18,777 --> 00:15:22,017 Speaker 1: lot of the people that are a little skeptical about 259 00:15:22,017 --> 00:15:27,017 Speaker 1: this money. I think it's a reasonable suggestion. I don't 260 00:15:27,017 --> 00:15:30,937 Speaker 1: think it's going to convince yourself and US Congression, Cawthorne 261 00:15:30,937 --> 00:15:33,977 Speaker 1: and others there against it for other reasons. I respect 262 00:15:33,977 --> 00:15:37,937 Speaker 1: those positions. I just have a different view of where 263 00:15:37,977 --> 00:15:41,017 Speaker 1: things are going in Ukraine. But look, let's we have 264 00:15:41,097 --> 00:15:43,577 Speaker 1: to have this responsibility. We know we have problems at home. 265 00:15:43,777 --> 00:15:46,497 Speaker 1: We don't Biden is ruining our economy, he's ruining the 266 00:15:47,057 --> 00:15:49,937 Speaker 1: energy market, and this money could be spent quite well 267 00:15:49,977 --> 00:15:52,457 Speaker 1: at home. But I think there are times we had 268 00:15:52,497 --> 00:15:55,137 Speaker 1: to make an investment for our national security. I don't 269 00:15:55,137 --> 00:15:57,057 Speaker 1: want to send troops, but I would like to see 270 00:15:57,177 --> 00:15:59,737 Speaker 1: Ukraine armed to the teeth. And I know I hear 271 00:15:59,737 --> 00:16:01,417 Speaker 1: a lot of people saying that they don't want to 272 00:16:01,417 --> 00:16:04,737 Speaker 1: send troops. But also we're you know, speaking in language 273 00:16:04,777 --> 00:16:07,097 Speaker 1: that seems to suggest that there will be troops there 274 00:16:07,097 --> 00:16:09,737 Speaker 1: one day. So let me ask you this, in your opinion, 275 00:16:09,817 --> 00:16:12,337 Speaker 1: how does this read to the general public. You brought 276 00:16:12,417 --> 00:16:15,097 Speaker 1: up all the issues that we're having in America right 277 00:16:15,137 --> 00:16:19,057 Speaker 1: now with baby formula shortages and gas prices and grocery 278 00:16:19,057 --> 00:16:21,697 Speaker 1: and inflation, all of that stuff. How does it read 279 00:16:21,737 --> 00:16:24,777 Speaker 1: to the general public, in your opinion, when we are 280 00:16:24,817 --> 00:16:28,137 Speaker 1: voting this in forty billion dollars to Ukraine and we 281 00:16:28,217 --> 00:16:32,497 Speaker 1: have all of these issues at home. I think that 282 00:16:32,657 --> 00:16:36,017 Speaker 1: it's going to cause concern that most Americans won't understand 283 00:16:36,857 --> 00:16:39,177 Speaker 1: why we're spending such huge amount of money on a 284 00:16:39,217 --> 00:16:42,377 Speaker 1: country so far away, on a conflict that doesn't involve us. 285 00:16:42,417 --> 00:16:44,697 Speaker 1: I think there are bigger issues here, but we had 286 00:16:44,737 --> 00:16:48,737 Speaker 1: to put the perspective. I think that having Ukraine as 287 00:16:48,777 --> 00:16:52,657 Speaker 1: an ally and supporting them, that's fine. But sending American 288 00:16:52,737 --> 00:16:55,457 Speaker 1: troops in or risking a war with Russia, for me, 289 00:16:55,537 --> 00:16:59,417 Speaker 1: that's off the table. Do you think that continuing to 290 00:16:59,497 --> 00:17:03,057 Speaker 1: fund Ukraine in this way, continuing to send all this 291 00:17:03,097 --> 00:17:05,457 Speaker 1: money over there, do you think that that is furthering 292 00:17:05,497 --> 00:17:07,937 Speaker 1: along how long this ward is going to go? And 293 00:17:07,937 --> 00:17:10,737 Speaker 1: do you think that that brings us closer to actually 294 00:17:10,857 --> 00:17:15,697 Speaker 1: engaging in this war with Russia? Now? I think letting 295 00:17:15,777 --> 00:17:18,977 Speaker 1: Russia catch up, letting and rebuild, that will further the war. 296 00:17:19,337 --> 00:17:21,977 Speaker 1: I think to bring peace in this area, or at 297 00:17:22,057 --> 00:17:26,297 Speaker 1: least some level of stability, Ukraine has to prevail wold 298 00:17:26,337 --> 00:17:30,337 Speaker 1: the territory it's having, and Russia has to pull back. 299 00:17:30,377 --> 00:17:32,137 Speaker 1: I don't think there's going to be a peace treaty. 300 00:17:32,377 --> 00:17:34,177 Speaker 1: I don't think there's going to be a formal sensation 301 00:17:34,217 --> 00:17:37,217 Speaker 1: of hostilities. I think this will simmer on for a 302 00:17:37,257 --> 00:17:41,297 Speaker 1: long time, but maybe most of the fighting will will stop. 303 00:17:41,577 --> 00:17:43,057 Speaker 1: But I'll tell you, I think there are things we 304 00:17:43,097 --> 00:17:45,057 Speaker 1: should not be doing. We should not be provoking the 305 00:17:45,137 --> 00:17:49,097 Speaker 1: Russians by talking about regime change or removing Putin, or 306 00:17:49,137 --> 00:17:52,057 Speaker 1: saying that we want to degrade or destroy the Russian military. 307 00:17:52,497 --> 00:17:55,497 Speaker 1: That's irresponsible. I know Senator Grammar said, and stuff like that. 308 00:17:56,417 --> 00:18:00,417 Speaker 1: This Defense Secretary said, like that humiliating and what rubbing 309 00:18:00,457 --> 00:18:04,417 Speaker 1: in the noses of Putin and Russian leaders. That is 310 00:18:04,537 --> 00:18:07,137 Speaker 1: risking a war between US and the United States, US 311 00:18:07,137 --> 00:18:09,577 Speaker 1: and Russia. That has to stop, okay, And so how 312 00:18:09,577 --> 00:18:11,337 Speaker 1: do we get them to stop this stuff? In And 313 00:18:11,337 --> 00:18:14,017 Speaker 1: I made a play a clip of Miss McConnell earlier, 314 00:18:14,057 --> 00:18:15,897 Speaker 1: you know, talking all this stuff. There's a lot of 315 00:18:15,937 --> 00:18:19,817 Speaker 1: chickenhawks in DC that have not served, have never served, 316 00:18:19,817 --> 00:18:23,137 Speaker 1: do not have any family members serving, but yet talk 317 00:18:23,217 --> 00:18:25,257 Speaker 1: really tough when it comes to this stuff. So how 318 00:18:25,297 --> 00:18:29,137 Speaker 1: do you get them to temper down their language. Well, 319 00:18:29,177 --> 00:18:30,937 Speaker 1: I think folks like you and I have to talk 320 00:18:30,977 --> 00:18:34,057 Speaker 1: this up to say, you know, let's let's not provoke 321 00:18:34,097 --> 00:18:37,577 Speaker 1: Putin for no reason we want. We want the Ukrainians 322 00:18:37,577 --> 00:18:40,137 Speaker 1: to win, we want them to hold their territory. But 323 00:18:40,337 --> 00:18:42,977 Speaker 1: talking about how we want this conflict to weaken the 324 00:18:43,097 --> 00:18:47,337 Speaker 1: Russian army, why Secretary of Austin said that, I mean, 325 00:18:47,617 --> 00:18:50,377 Speaker 1: and I mean he's he's a military man that was 326 00:18:50,457 --> 00:18:53,657 Speaker 1: so irresponsible. That's something that Putin's going to be able 327 00:18:53,657 --> 00:18:57,497 Speaker 1: to use for propaganda purposes to keep support for this conflict. 328 00:18:58,377 --> 00:19:00,937 Speaker 1: All right, Well, Fred Flights, we are not on the 329 00:19:00,937 --> 00:19:03,417 Speaker 1: same side of this issue, but I appreciate this conversation. 330 00:19:03,577 --> 00:19:05,777 Speaker 1: I really do.

We greatly appreciate it, so thank you. 332 00:19:09,097 --> 00:19:13,737 Speaker 1: Here could be here The View, Sunny Hawston claims Black 333 00:19:13,777 --> 00:19:17,137 Speaker 1: Republicans are an oxymoron, once again proving that The View 334 00:19:17,257 --> 00:19:21,177 Speaker 1: is the least intelligent show on television. Candidate for Congress 335 00:19:21,177 --> 00:19:24,057 Speaker 1: in the Great State of Florida, Laverne Spicer gives her 336 00:19:24,097 --> 00:19:31,377 Speaker 1: thoughts on Hawson's statement. When we return, welcome back to 337 00:19:31,417 --> 00:19:34,417 Speaker 1: hold the line. I'm Rob Smith, in for Buck. Black 338 00:19:34,417 --> 00:19:38,217 Speaker 1: Republicans do in fact exist, But don't tell Sonny Hawson 339 00:19:38,257 --> 00:19:40,857 Speaker 1: over on the View because their existence makes her little 340 00:19:40,897 --> 00:19:45,137 Speaker 1: brain hurt. Okay that I know this may be a 341 00:19:45,217 --> 00:19:48,337 Speaker 1: novel point, a novel idea for somebody who's you know, 342 00:19:48,337 --> 00:19:50,577 Speaker 1: I'm a supporter of Trump, but there are people who 343 00:19:50,617 --> 00:19:55,457 Speaker 1: are capable of many things that I don't stand by 344 00:19:55,457 --> 00:19:57,177 Speaker 1: that Trump did. Trump has done things that are racist. 345 00:19:57,177 --> 00:19:59,697 Speaker 1: I'm a black woman first, so always understand that. But 346 00:19:59,777 --> 00:20:02,137 Speaker 1: I do say that I have many conservative values that 347 00:20:02,177 --> 00:20:03,657 Speaker 1: I will talk to you about. And so if you 348 00:20:03,697 --> 00:20:06,017 Speaker 1: look at your network that you're standing behind, yes, and 349 00:20:06,057 --> 00:20:07,937 Speaker 1: when you look at your network that you're standing behind, 350 00:20:08,297 --> 00:20:10,737 Speaker 1: you're saying that you look at Chris paulin the oxymoron 351 00:20:10,777 --> 00:20:15,817 Speaker 1: a black Republican. Well, the truth is that black Republicans 352 00:20:15,857 --> 00:20:19,417 Speaker 1: do exist because no political party has a monopoly on 353 00:20:19,457 --> 00:20:22,857 Speaker 1: the hearts and minds of millions of people just because 354 00:20:22,857 --> 00:20:26,337 Speaker 1: they happen to share a certain skin color. Again, don't 355 00:20:26,377 --> 00:20:29,937 Speaker 1: tell Sonny Houston. Joining me to discuss this is Republican 356 00:20:30,017 --> 00:20:36,537 Speaker 1: House candidate for Florida District twenty four, Laverne Spicer. Laverne, welcome, Welcome, 357 00:20:37,177 --> 00:20:41,217 Speaker 1: Thanks for Ralph for having me on absolutely So Now, Laverne, 358 00:20:41,297 --> 00:20:44,417 Speaker 1: I call you spicy because you're always giving me some 359 00:20:44,457 --> 00:20:47,857 Speaker 1: spicy hot takes. So what's what's the spicy take on this? 360 00:20:47,977 --> 00:20:51,617 Speaker 1: What these ladies are saying on the View. I feel like, 361 00:20:51,817 --> 00:20:56,457 Speaker 1: first of all, you know, as a black American, as 362 00:20:56,497 --> 00:21:02,737 Speaker 1: a conservative, we have the right to articulate in dialogue 363 00:21:02,777 --> 00:21:09,137 Speaker 1: our thoughts, our thoughts without you know, being worried about 364 00:21:09,497 --> 00:21:12,417 Speaker 1: we are are we going to fan somewhere? What happened 365 00:21:12,417 --> 00:21:17,217 Speaker 1: to the freedom of speak? You know, a black candidates 366 00:21:17,257 --> 00:21:21,617 Speaker 1: come on the View, they are always a tag for 367 00:21:21,777 --> 00:21:27,737 Speaker 1: speaking in mind. And it is like so unbelievable the 368 00:21:28,017 --> 00:21:32,657 Speaker 1: hate that they have for black services on this show. 369 00:21:33,177 --> 00:21:35,177 Speaker 1: It's crazy. And the thing about it is is that 370 00:21:35,217 --> 00:21:37,497 Speaker 1: so when you watch this show and you watch the View, 371 00:21:37,577 --> 00:21:39,777 Speaker 1: and you know Sonny and Whoopie Goldberg and all of 372 00:21:39,777 --> 00:21:42,977 Speaker 1: that stuff, there is this out and out hostility to 373 00:21:43,177 --> 00:21:46,137 Speaker 1: any black person that does not tell the leftist agenda. 374 00:21:46,457 --> 00:21:49,777 Speaker 1: And I also noticed this while I'm watching these clips again, 375 00:21:50,297 --> 00:21:53,817 Speaker 1: I think that they know that America's and shambles right now. 376 00:21:53,817 --> 00:21:56,537 Speaker 1: They know that gas prices are high, groceries are high, 377 00:21:56,617 --> 00:21:59,257 Speaker 1: all these different things. But yet they go back to 378 00:21:59,417 --> 00:22:02,137 Speaker 1: Trump over and over and over again. Laverne, Like, I 379 00:22:02,217 --> 00:22:06,177 Speaker 1: know that you're somebody that that supported the former president. 380 00:22:06,937 --> 00:22:09,097 Speaker 1: Why do you think that these people are still so 381 00:22:09,177 --> 00:22:13,017 Speaker 1: obsessed with Donald Trump? Well, first of all, the hate 382 00:22:13,177 --> 00:22:16,057 Speaker 1: is real. You know that they have hate in their 383 00:22:16,097 --> 00:22:20,137 Speaker 1: heart if they don't even want to hear anything dealing 384 00:22:20,177 --> 00:22:24,297 Speaker 1: with anybody policies unless it's something that's you know, they 385 00:22:24,297 --> 00:22:27,097 Speaker 1: are promoting with Joe Biden, and we all know how 386 00:22:27,857 --> 00:22:31,777 Speaker 1: destructive his policies are and how his policies have totally 387 00:22:31,857 --> 00:22:36,137 Speaker 1: failed this country. He has totally failed these people. But 388 00:22:36,457 --> 00:22:38,817 Speaker 1: on I mean, like today I went to the gas 389 00:22:38,857 --> 00:22:41,897 Speaker 1: pump and the gas here in Miami is like five 390 00:22:42,017 --> 00:22:50,657 Speaker 1: dollars a galling had. Gas prices is high ever ever 391 00:22:50,857 --> 00:22:54,537 Speaker 1: here and that is crazy. And so what's going on 392 00:22:54,657 --> 00:22:58,857 Speaker 1: right now is this, Like I said, they need distractions 393 00:22:58,857 --> 00:23:01,137 Speaker 1: all the time. The Bide administration needs distractions and all 394 00:23:01,137 --> 00:23:03,337 Speaker 1: this stuff. When you look at somebody like Sunny Hawsing, 395 00:23:03,377 --> 00:23:06,697 Speaker 1: you look at Whoppie Goldberg, these people are living in 396 00:23:06,737 --> 00:23:09,457 Speaker 1: the bubble, right. So you're running in Florida edition with 397 00:23:09,537 --> 00:23:12,817 Speaker 1: twenty four that is North Miami, that is nowhere near 398 00:23:12,897 --> 00:23:16,857 Speaker 1: the sort of New York DCLA bubble. So what are 399 00:23:16,937 --> 00:23:20,297 Speaker 1: you hearing just from people out on the streets, Like 400 00:23:20,817 --> 00:23:23,777 Speaker 1: the people that you're running to represent, what are they 401 00:23:23,857 --> 00:23:27,257 Speaker 1: saying about everything that's going on? The people that I'm 402 00:23:27,337 --> 00:23:30,657 Speaker 1: running to represent are tired or being sick and tired, 403 00:23:30,737 --> 00:23:35,097 Speaker 1: or being sick and tired. They are totally fed up. 404 00:23:35,257 --> 00:23:38,177 Speaker 1: They're tired of the gas, They're tired of the cost 405 00:23:38,217 --> 00:23:41,857 Speaker 1: of food in the grocery EA store because it's so expensive. 406 00:23:41,857 --> 00:23:44,297 Speaker 1: I mean, the bag of limits is like five dollars, 407 00:23:44,337 --> 00:23:48,697 Speaker 1: and in some places the eggs are even eight, you know, 408 00:23:49,017 --> 00:23:53,137 Speaker 1: and short of Jones, certain food items you cannot find 409 00:23:53,177 --> 00:23:56,537 Speaker 1: them in the grocery store, certain things that you're looking for. 410 00:23:57,097 --> 00:24:01,697 Speaker 1: And it's just all around hard ship own people. In 411 00:24:01,817 --> 00:24:05,697 Speaker 1: my district, the cost for one bad room apartment is 412 00:24:05,777 --> 00:24:10,577 Speaker 1: two thousand dollars. And even here in Liberty, see in 413 00:24:10,617 --> 00:24:14,497 Speaker 1: the hood, wherein years ago you can buy a house 414 00:24:14,577 --> 00:24:17,817 Speaker 1: for twenty thousand dollars, that same house, and now it 415 00:24:17,897 --> 00:24:21,817 Speaker 1: is gonna cost you four hundred and fifty thousand dollars, 416 00:24:21,897 --> 00:24:27,137 Speaker 1: which is the price of a home here. So they 417 00:24:27,137 --> 00:24:29,937 Speaker 1: can't afford it. And so the question to you is this, 418 00:24:29,937 --> 00:24:33,697 Speaker 1: this is my question. Why do Black people keep voting 419 00:24:33,737 --> 00:24:37,057 Speaker 1: for this stuff? Do you think that it's there being bullie? 420 00:24:37,217 --> 00:24:39,737 Speaker 1: Do you think that we just don't want to step 421 00:24:39,777 --> 00:24:43,377 Speaker 1: outside the line? Like do you think it's the entertainment 422 00:24:43,457 --> 00:24:48,137 Speaker 1: industries The Democrat parties hold on the entertainment industry, media 423 00:24:48,177 --> 00:24:51,857 Speaker 1: personalities like Sonny and whooping in everybody in the view. 424 00:24:52,097 --> 00:24:54,857 Speaker 1: Why do you think that black people keep voting for 425 00:24:54,937 --> 00:24:58,217 Speaker 1: this Because I personally so I do a lot of 426 00:24:58,337 --> 00:25:00,897 Speaker 1: you know, work on the ground, and I speak about this, 427 00:25:00,937 --> 00:25:03,297 Speaker 1: and I advocate about this and all this other stuff. 428 00:25:03,577 --> 00:25:08,217 Speaker 1: I am not entirely convinced that we can get this 429 00:25:08,337 --> 00:25:11,577 Speaker 1: Black Republican movement to it needs to be to actually 430 00:25:11,577 --> 00:25:14,497 Speaker 1: really shut things because people always go back to the 431 00:25:14,497 --> 00:25:16,177 Speaker 1: same old, sameer. Why do you think think he's going 432 00:25:16,217 --> 00:25:18,977 Speaker 1: back to it? Well, I think a lot of times 433 00:25:18,977 --> 00:25:23,577 Speaker 1: they have been so brainwashed, yes to the fact that 434 00:25:23,617 --> 00:25:27,857 Speaker 1: they believe all Republicans are prejudice, all of us are 435 00:25:27,937 --> 00:25:34,977 Speaker 1: KKK's well, we are a house negroes, we are you're racist. 436 00:25:35,417 --> 00:25:39,657 Speaker 1: But the truth the Democrats are the one that that 437 00:25:39,937 --> 00:25:43,617 Speaker 1: lining up with that agenda right there with the racist agenda. 438 00:25:43,937 --> 00:25:47,097 Speaker 1: I mean, listen to everything that Biden says only into 439 00:25:47,137 --> 00:25:50,017 Speaker 1: their own YouTube that you can go google right now, 440 00:25:50,337 --> 00:25:52,377 Speaker 1: where he said he don't want his kids going to 441 00:25:52,417 --> 00:25:58,017 Speaker 1: school with those where he said he's SATs three hundreds 442 00:25:58,017 --> 00:26:01,097 Speaker 1: of thousand feet in low sea level when he goes 443 00:26:01,137 --> 00:26:03,217 Speaker 1: off and he says he don't want his kids going 444 00:26:03,257 --> 00:26:08,937 Speaker 1: to school with those. He's on the YouTube saying that 445 00:26:09,457 --> 00:26:12,177 Speaker 1: he always say black people don't have the ability to 446 00:26:12,337 --> 00:26:16,057 Speaker 1: think for ourselves. If we vote for Trump, then then 447 00:26:16,137 --> 00:26:19,057 Speaker 1: basically we are not black enough because we did not 448 00:26:19,537 --> 00:26:21,937 Speaker 1: vote for him. He says that we are not capable 449 00:26:22,337 --> 00:26:27,297 Speaker 1: of using the Internet, that we don't know how. And 450 00:26:27,417 --> 00:26:32,697 Speaker 1: the crazy thing about it is yes, And the crazy 451 00:26:32,737 --> 00:26:35,217 Speaker 1: thing about this is is that you can find all 452 00:26:35,217 --> 00:26:37,577 Speaker 1: of this stuff and this is what he has said 453 00:26:37,577 --> 00:26:40,217 Speaker 1: on that that's the craziest thing.

The Biden administration announced yesterday 467 00:27:27,737 --> 00:27:30,417 Speaker 1: that they're canceling oil and gas lead sales in the 468 00:27:30,417 --> 00:27:34,097 Speaker 1: Gulf of Mexico and Alaska as gas prices hit a 469 00:27:34,217 --> 00:27:36,897 Speaker 1: record high across the country. We'll have more on that 470 00:27:37,017 --> 00:27:40,097 Speaker 1: with the founder and executive director of Power the Future, 471 00:27:40,497 --> 00:27:47,897 Speaker 1: Daniel Turner after the break. Welcome back to hold the line. 472 00:27:47,977 --> 00:27:51,617 Speaker 1: I'm Rob Smith filling him for buck. Americans are feeling 473 00:27:51,657 --> 00:27:55,097 Speaker 1: the pain at the pump. According to Triple A, gas 474 00:27:55,137 --> 00:27:57,777 Speaker 1: prices serves to a new record high today, with the 475 00:27:57,897 --> 00:28:02,897 Speaker 1: nationwide average reaching four dollars and forty two cents per gallon. 476 00:28:03,297 --> 00:28:06,137 Speaker 1: That's up from three dollars in May of last year. 477 00:28:06,577 --> 00:28:09,737 Speaker 1: So what's the Biden administration doing the ease prices? Well, 478 00:28:09,777 --> 00:28:13,097 Speaker 1: cut back on drilling, of course. Last night, the US 479 00:28:13,097 --> 00:28:16,537 Speaker 1: Interior Department announced they were canceling oil and gas leaf 480 00:28:16,577 --> 00:28:20,457 Speaker 1: sales in Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico. So if 481 00:28:20,497 --> 00:28:23,177 Speaker 1: you thought relief is on the way, think again. Joining 482 00:28:23,217 --> 00:28:26,177 Speaker 1: me now is the founder and executive director of Power 483 00:28:26,257 --> 00:28:31,417 Speaker 1: the Future, Daniel Turner. Thanks for joining me, Daniel, thanks 484 00:28:31,457 --> 00:28:34,417 Speaker 1: to having me. Great to be here. Absolutely. Okay, So 485 00:28:34,457 --> 00:28:38,617 Speaker 1: now I'm a dummy about the drilling and all of 486 00:28:38,657 --> 00:28:40,377 Speaker 1: that stuff. But what I do know is that gas 487 00:28:40,417 --> 00:28:44,737 Speaker 1: prices are ridiculously expensive. And with gas prices where they 488 00:28:44,777 --> 00:28:48,417 Speaker 1: are right now, why on earth would the Biden administration 489 00:28:48,497 --> 00:28:52,697 Speaker 1: be doing this. Yeah, it does seem really bizarre that 490 00:28:52,777 --> 00:28:55,697 Speaker 1: at a time that the President himself is saying I'm 491 00:28:55,697 --> 00:28:59,057 Speaker 1: doing everything in my power to lower gas prices, that 492 00:28:59,097 --> 00:29:01,617 Speaker 1: he would take a step like this, because what is 493 00:29:01,697 --> 00:29:05,737 Speaker 1: driving our high prices is a lack of supply. It 494 00:29:05,817 --> 00:29:08,297 Speaker 1: is very hard right now to produce oil and gas 495 00:29:08,337 --> 00:29:11,897 Speaker 1: domestically for a myriad reason. Right the president knows we 496 00:29:11,977 --> 00:29:14,897 Speaker 1: have a supply problem. That's why he's begged oil from 497 00:29:14,937 --> 00:29:18,097 Speaker 1: the Saudis, from the Venezuelans. He even talked about buying 498 00:29:18,217 --> 00:29:22,537 Speaker 1: oil from the Iranians. He's released oil from the Strategic 499 00:29:22,577 --> 00:29:25,777 Speaker 1: Petroleum reserves, so he knows there is a supply problem. 500 00:29:26,137 --> 00:29:29,097 Speaker 1: So then you have to wonder why he would do 501 00:29:29,177 --> 00:29:33,217 Speaker 1: anything that would make increasing the supply, meaning oil and 502 00:29:33,257 --> 00:29:36,097 Speaker 1: gas permitting, why he would make that more difficult. But 503 00:29:36,337 --> 00:29:39,137 Speaker 1: this is exactly what he wants. They are getting the 504 00:29:39,137 --> 00:29:44,137 Speaker 1: outcome that they desire. This is not ignorance or stupidity 505 00:29:44,297 --> 00:29:47,697 Speaker 1: or bad policy planning. This is exactly what the Biden 506 00:29:47,737 --> 00:29:51,617 Speaker 1: administration intended to happen. So you think the Biden administration 507 00:29:51,737 --> 00:29:54,657 Speaker 1: actually wants Americans to be hurting like this? Now the 508 00:29:55,017 --> 00:29:58,057 Speaker 1: conspiracy theories to me or whatever, it's just like, so, 509 00:29:58,097 --> 00:30:01,697 Speaker 1: these are not stupid people. These are very highly intelligent, 510 00:30:01,817 --> 00:30:05,057 Speaker 1: highly educated people, and I do not believe that they 511 00:30:05,057 --> 00:30:08,417 Speaker 1: are this incompetent. So the only possible solution is that 512 00:30:08,417 --> 00:30:11,417 Speaker 1: they are doing this on purpose for some reason. So 513 00:30:11,537 --> 00:30:14,737 Speaker 1: why would they be doing this? Yeah, if you are 514 00:30:14,777 --> 00:30:18,297 Speaker 1: a statist, and that's the most polite term I could 515 00:30:18,377 --> 00:30:21,857 Speaker 1: use for people who believe in big government control. If 516 00:30:21,857 --> 00:30:26,057 Speaker 1: you are a statist, you ultimately want all industries to 517 00:30:26,137 --> 00:30:28,577 Speaker 1: be controlled by the government. It's very much why Obama 518 00:30:28,617 --> 00:30:31,697 Speaker 1: wanted to go after healthcare. Right. Energy is the last 519 00:30:31,897 --> 00:30:35,417 Speaker 1: great industry that is in private hands. There are some 520 00:30:35,457 --> 00:30:38,377 Speaker 1: publicly traded companies, but for the most part, the energy 521 00:30:38,417 --> 00:30:40,777 Speaker 1: industry is in the hands of the private sector. The 522 00:30:40,857 --> 00:30:43,617 Speaker 1: Biden administration is part of this group of people led 523 00:30:43,617 --> 00:30:49,097 Speaker 1: by Bernie Sanders, Alexandriacatio Cortez, that wants this green revolution 524 00:30:49,177 --> 00:30:51,817 Speaker 1: to happen. They want to force wind and solar, they 525 00:30:51,857 --> 00:30:54,817 Speaker 1: want to force electric vehicles. The only way they can 526 00:30:54,897 --> 00:30:59,017 Speaker 1: do that is to make fossil fuels very, very unattractive. 527 00:30:59,297 --> 00:31:03,937 Speaker 1: And the most attractive thing about fossil fuels is their affordability. Right. 528 00:31:03,977 --> 00:31:07,257 Speaker 1: We liked it when in twenty nineteen oil was two 529 00:31:07,257 --> 00:31:10,017 Speaker 1: dollars a gallon nationwide. We like it that when we 530 00:31:10,337 --> 00:31:14,977 Speaker 1: call Uber Eats or Postmates or Amazon, products arrive quickly, 531 00:31:15,217 --> 00:31:18,857 Speaker 1: and they arrive very inexpensively. Fossil fuels are what drive 532 00:31:18,897 --> 00:31:21,537 Speaker 1: our economy and we like that. So to make fossil 533 00:31:21,577 --> 00:31:25,097 Speaker 1: fuels the enemy, they have to make fossil fuels expensive, 534 00:31:25,217 --> 00:31:29,777 Speaker 1: and maybe with enough punishing the American people, enough frustration 535 00:31:29,817 --> 00:31:33,457 Speaker 1: and anger, maybe the American people will say, please, Joe Biden, 536 00:31:33,617 --> 00:31:36,937 Speaker 1: save us, give us an alternative. And the alternative is 537 00:31:36,977 --> 00:31:41,017 Speaker 1: this green status agenda? Interesting? So you think that this 538 00:31:41,097 --> 00:31:44,137 Speaker 1: is all about trying to push this sort of green 539 00:31:44,177 --> 00:31:48,537 Speaker 1: new deal just battage and this transitioning into solar energy 540 00:31:48,577 --> 00:31:50,417 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. That's what you think that's all about. 541 00:31:52,257 --> 00:31:54,417 Speaker 1: That they've been trying to scare us with climate change 542 00:31:54,497 --> 00:31:58,257 Speaker 1: language for decades. It didn't work, right. They always talk 543 00:31:58,297 --> 00:32:01,977 Speaker 1: about we're gonna die, sea levels arising to an unsustainable level. 544 00:32:02,177 --> 00:32:04,537 Speaker 1: Yet every time you turn around, either John carries on 545 00:32:04,577 --> 00:32:07,777 Speaker 1: a private jet or Barack Obama's buying a beachfront mansion. 546 00:32:09,537 --> 00:32:12,297 Speaker 1: Thumber you know, floating around as well. So Gretta Thumberg 547 00:32:12,417 --> 00:32:14,697 Speaker 1: is trying to you know, wag her finger at us 548 00:32:14,737 --> 00:32:16,897 Speaker 1: and shame us all and all this other stuff. So 549 00:32:17,097 --> 00:32:21,097 Speaker 1: in your opinion, this is just not working exactly because 550 00:32:21,097 --> 00:32:23,417 Speaker 1: they don't even buy it, because they're not giving up 551 00:32:23,697 --> 00:32:27,057 Speaker 1: the bounty of fossil fuels, they're not changing their lifestyles. 552 00:32:27,337 --> 00:32:29,737 Speaker 1: So they took a page. As far as I'm concerned, 553 00:32:30,017 --> 00:32:33,017 Speaker 1: COVID gave them the best playbook. Right, look at what 554 00:32:33,017 --> 00:32:35,337 Speaker 1: they were able to do by scaring us with COVID. 555 00:32:35,377 --> 00:32:38,857 Speaker 1: In just two years, they closed our churches, they reworked 556 00:32:38,897 --> 00:32:42,617 Speaker 1: our electoral system. Right, in two years, your kids aren't 557 00:32:42,657 --> 00:32:45,617 Speaker 1: going a class and you're stuck in your in your 558 00:32:46,697 --> 00:32:50,057 Speaker 1: upstairs bedroom with the doors closed and everyone's wearing a mask. 559 00:32:50,377 --> 00:32:52,577 Speaker 1: So if you're in the radical green movement, you look 560 00:32:52,617 --> 00:32:54,657 Speaker 1: at this and you say, holy cow, how do we 561 00:32:54,737 --> 00:32:58,577 Speaker 1: transform people's lives to this degree? Well, scared didn't work. 562 00:32:58,617 --> 00:33:01,577 Speaker 1: Fear didn't work, So let's try this other tactic, which 563 00:33:01,657 --> 00:33:04,577 Speaker 1: is make the fossil fuels the enemy. Look, they brought 564 00:33:04,577 --> 00:33:08,377 Speaker 1: fossil fuel executives to hearings before Congress tried they're trying 565 00:33:08,497 --> 00:33:13,377 Speaker 1: price gouging. That did work. Either. This is completely fascinating 566 00:33:13,377 --> 00:33:15,777 Speaker 1: and something that I kind of thought about because, you know, 567 00:33:15,777 --> 00:33:19,177 Speaker 1: when you have this conversation about the Green New Deal 568 00:33:19,217 --> 00:33:21,377 Speaker 1: and all in the climate cult and all of that 569 00:33:21,457 --> 00:33:23,777 Speaker 1: other stuff, you know, I never really thought to make 570 00:33:23,857 --> 00:33:25,937 Speaker 1: that connection to what is going on right now. But 571 00:33:25,977 --> 00:33:28,817 Speaker 1: it's actually very very interesting. And so the question that 572 00:33:28,857 --> 00:33:32,137 Speaker 1: I have to you is, we've got these politicians that 573 00:33:32,217 --> 00:33:35,497 Speaker 1: are complaining about the gas prices, we have all this stuff. 574 00:33:35,577 --> 00:33:38,217 Speaker 1: What are some things that the people that claim to 575 00:33:38,337 --> 00:33:42,017 Speaker 1: be representing us can be doing right now to sort 576 00:33:42,017 --> 00:33:45,537 Speaker 1: of fight this climate cult that is trying to make 577 00:33:45,777 --> 00:33:48,297 Speaker 1: things harder on all of us. Yeah, I mean the 578 00:33:48,337 --> 00:33:50,857 Speaker 1: best thing to do at the localist level is to 579 00:33:50,977 --> 00:33:54,777 Speaker 1: really get involved, and that means going to town halls. 580 00:33:54,817 --> 00:33:57,417 Speaker 1: It means talking to your elected representatives, because they're the 581 00:33:57,417 --> 00:33:59,497 Speaker 1: ones who are pushing a lot of this climate agenda, 582 00:33:59,537 --> 00:34:01,457 Speaker 1: and a lot of it at the most local level. 583 00:34:01,697 --> 00:34:05,737 Speaker 1: You see counties and municipalities saying by the year twenty thirty, 584 00:34:05,857 --> 00:34:08,217 Speaker 1: fifty percent of our electricity has to come from wind 585 00:34:08,217 --> 00:34:10,977 Speaker 1: and solar. You need to engage with these folks and say, 586 00:34:11,177 --> 00:34:13,337 Speaker 1: can you show me any place in the world where 587 00:34:13,337 --> 00:34:17,097 Speaker 1: this is working? Right? California is the furthest state, and 588 00:34:17,217 --> 00:34:21,377 Speaker 1: California has rolling blackouts. California's governor is warning people, oh boy, 589 00:34:21,377 --> 00:34:23,337 Speaker 1: it's going to be a rough summer. We don't produce 590 00:34:23,457 --> 00:34:27,217 Speaker 1: enough electricity. Germany is the country that is furthest along, 591 00:34:27,337 --> 00:34:31,577 Speaker 1: probably twenty years ahead of America. Germany has four times 592 00:34:31,617 --> 00:34:34,897 Speaker 1: the price point that we do. They have higher emissions, 593 00:34:35,017 --> 00:34:38,177 Speaker 1: and now they're absolutely petrified of Vladimir Putin because of 594 00:34:38,217 --> 00:34:41,377 Speaker 1: their green agenda. And so you know, ask your local congressman, 595 00:34:41,417 --> 00:34:44,017 Speaker 1: ask your mayor. Anytime someone says we're gonna go green, 596 00:34:44,457 --> 00:34:47,857 Speaker 1: say just show me anywhere in the world where going 597 00:34:47,937 --> 00:34:50,537 Speaker 1: green has worked to the benefit. And if you can 598 00:34:50,577 --> 00:34:52,777 Speaker 1: show me that, I'll shut up. But they can show 599 00:34:52,777 --> 00:34:56,017 Speaker 1: you that. They just keep doubling down, doubling down on stupidity. 600 00:34:56,177 --> 00:34:58,297 Speaker 1: It's like, hey, just put on the third mask, let's 601 00:34:58,297 --> 00:35:01,857 Speaker 1: try that, right, It's just doubling down on stupidity. Because 602 00:35:01,897 --> 00:35:05,017 Speaker 1: at this point, if they have convinced people of the 603 00:35:05,137 --> 00:35:07,977 Speaker 1: lie enough and they have created this cult around the 604 00:35:08,057 --> 00:35:11,217 Speaker 1: climate agenda, then there's no need to explain it anymore. 605 00:35:11,217 --> 00:35:14,097 Speaker 1: It's just one of those things that just is known, right, 606 00:35:14,217 --> 00:35:17,177 Speaker 1: just like it was known that the vaccines are supposed 607 00:35:17,177 --> 00:35:19,297 Speaker 1: to stop covid just like it was known that the 608 00:35:19,417 --> 00:35:23,617 Speaker 1: masks were supposed to stop covid M. This is extremely fascinating. 609 00:35:24,257 --> 00:35:26,297 Speaker 1: Do you think that they'll go even further than this? 610 00:35:26,457 --> 00:35:30,217 Speaker 1: And in service of that agenda? I think they're they're 611 00:35:30,257 --> 00:35:32,337 Speaker 1: they're one hundred percent in the tank on this agenda 612 00:35:32,377 --> 00:35:33,937 Speaker 1: and they're not going to roll it back. You know, 613 00:35:33,937 --> 00:35:36,737 Speaker 1: people are optimistic about the elections this year. What happens 614 00:35:36,737 --> 00:35:39,497 Speaker 1: if Republicans getting control of the House. Most of our 615 00:35:39,617 --> 00:35:43,977 Speaker 1: energy decisions are controlled by the executive branch, the Secretary 616 00:35:44,017 --> 00:35:47,577 Speaker 1: of Interior, Secretary of Energy Joe Biden himself, John Kerry, 617 00:35:47,737 --> 00:35:50,097 Speaker 1: who seems to be accountable to nobody, right, No one 618 00:35:50,137 --> 00:35:52,657 Speaker 1: knows who he, who works for him. No one knows 619 00:35:52,697 --> 00:35:55,177 Speaker 1: what his budget is, no one knows what his mandate is, 620 00:35:55,217 --> 00:35:58,257 Speaker 1: but he's making climate decisions. And so you know they're 621 00:35:58,297 --> 00:36:00,097 Speaker 1: not going to give this up for the next couple 622 00:36:00,137 --> 00:36:02,417 Speaker 1: of years. The only thing that could stop it is 623 00:36:02,457 --> 00:36:06,217 Speaker 1: if enough people get involved. And and what's going to 624 00:36:06,297 --> 00:36:10,577 Speaker 1: do that is the motivating force of high prices, food ortages, 625 00:36:11,137 --> 00:36:13,817 Speaker 1: and a real detriment to our quality of life. Like 626 00:36:13,857 --> 00:36:17,217 Speaker 1: I said, Americans may hate the fossil fuel industry or 627 00:36:17,217 --> 00:36:19,377 Speaker 1: they may but they love what it does for us. 628 00:36:19,417 --> 00:36:22,297 Speaker 1: They love our wonderful American life and they're not giving 629 00:36:22,297 --> 00:36:25,777 Speaker 1: it up. Absolutely fascinating and terrifying. Daniel Turner, thanks for 630 00:36:25,857 --> 00:36:29,097 Speaker 1: joining us today. We really appreciate it. My pleasure, thanks 631 00:36:29,097 --> 00:36:32,137 Speaker 1: to having them, and appreciate it absolutely when we come back. 632 00:36:32,177 --> 00:36:34,737 Speaker 1: Secretary of Commerce tells parents who are trying to put 633 00:36:34,737 --> 00:36:37,777 Speaker 1: clothes on their children's backs to get their priorities straight. 634 00:36:38,017 --> 00:36:40,617 Speaker 1: We have that video for you and tonight's quick Hits 635 00:36:40,857 --> 00:36:48,257 Speaker 1: stay with US.

Those stories on tonight's quick Hits. 638 00:36:56,457 --> 00:36:59,097 Speaker 1: Let's get to it first of all, Here it's Secretary 639 00:36:59,097 --> 00:37:03,057 Speaker 1: of Commerce Gina Raymundo pledging her allegiance to the climate 640 00:37:03,297 --> 00:37:08,377 Speaker 1: cult while Americans are struggling and seeing their paychecks strength 641 00:37:09,777 --> 00:37:14,057 Speaker 1: twenty four percent increase over FY twenty one levels. For Noah, 642 00:37:14,417 --> 00:37:16,817 Speaker 1: doesn't really help families put food on the table or 643 00:37:16,857 --> 00:37:18,617 Speaker 1: close on the back of the time when inflations it 644 00:37:18,737 --> 00:37:21,217 Speaker 1: four year high. Can you talk about how this massive 645 00:37:21,217 --> 00:37:24,417 Speaker 1: allocation of funds helps to combat inflation or deal with 646 00:37:24,457 --> 00:37:29,897 Speaker 1: supply chain issues that you say are so important. Yes, So, look, 647 00:37:29,937 --> 00:37:33,857 Speaker 1: we believe climate change is an existential threat. So you know, 648 00:37:34,097 --> 00:37:37,697 Speaker 1: children won't get about clothes on their back. They're not 649 00:37:37,737 --> 00:37:39,417 Speaker 1: going to be able to have a life if we 650 00:37:39,457 --> 00:37:42,737 Speaker 1: don't deal with climate change, said, I can't forget about 651 00:37:42,737 --> 00:37:46,057 Speaker 1: they need to put clothes on their kids back.

That you 659 00:38:08,177 --> 00:38:10,417 Speaker 1: have to understand when it comes to the climate cult. 660 00:38:10,817 --> 00:38:13,737 Speaker 1: This is what these people truly think. When we talk 661 00:38:13,777 --> 00:38:16,457 Speaker 1: about the swamp, we talk about people that are so 662 00:38:16,617 --> 00:38:22,617 Speaker 1: far removed from the problems of the average American that 663 00:38:22,657 --> 00:38:26,577 Speaker 1: she talks about the climate change stuff people. It is 664 00:38:26,777 --> 00:38:31,017 Speaker 1: a cult in the calls are coming from inside the house. 665 00:38:31,257 --> 00:38:33,777 Speaker 1: All of these people are running the country into the ground. 666 00:38:34,017 --> 00:38:39,057 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. Up next, oh, now the far left sort 667 00:38:39,097 --> 00:38:42,017 Speaker 1: of alphabet soup people. This is one of the alphabet 668 00:38:42,017 --> 00:38:45,097 Speaker 1: soup people online and she's talking about what it is 669 00:38:45,137 --> 00:38:49,857 Speaker 1: to identify as cake cake gender. I would describe zeno 670 00:38:49,897 --> 00:38:54,257 Speaker 1: genders as a gender that cannot typically be described with 671 00:38:54,457 --> 00:38:58,977 Speaker 1: terms such as masculinity, femininity, neutrality, androgyny, things like that. 672 00:38:59,097 --> 00:39:04,057 Speaker 1: For example, cake gender, I know a few people who 673 00:39:04,217 --> 00:39:09,137 Speaker 1: personally use this. It's typically described as them feeling light 674 00:39:09,257 --> 00:39:12,497 Speaker 1: and fluffy or sweet and warmth. Another example of cake 675 00:39:12,577 --> 00:39:14,697 Speaker 1: gender would be if someone feels like they have different 676 00:39:14,777 --> 00:39:21,257 Speaker 1: layers or flavors to their particular gender. This is I 677 00:39:21,337 --> 00:39:24,897 Speaker 1: just I can't even we have to be in one 678 00:39:24,937 --> 00:39:30,657 Speaker 1: of the most ridiculously weirdly decadent periods in American history 679 00:39:30,657 --> 00:39:33,337 Speaker 1: before all this. This is like, guys, this is how 680 00:39:33,417 --> 00:39:36,177 Speaker 1: good the Trump administration was. This is how good people 681 00:39:36,217 --> 00:39:38,217 Speaker 1: had it. This is how good people had it with 682 00:39:38,257 --> 00:39:40,057 Speaker 1: low gas prices. This is how good people had it 683 00:39:40,057 --> 00:39:43,377 Speaker 1: with the strong economy. They created all of this stuff, 684 00:39:43,377 --> 00:39:45,897 Speaker 1: and we're only just now seeing this now because this 685 00:39:45,937 --> 00:39:50,217 Speaker 1: stuff has been going on online for decades. It's completely ridiculous. 686 00:39:50,257 --> 00:39:53,017 Speaker 1: I don't even know. But here's the thing. They're sending 687 00:39:53,057 --> 00:39:57,017 Speaker 1: these people to school, and they're getting degrees in this stuff. 688 00:39:57,017 --> 00:39:59,137 Speaker 1: They're gonna this is probably going to be a class 689 00:39:59,177 --> 00:40:01,977 Speaker 1: in gender studies, one on one, and then they're gonna 690 00:40:01,977 --> 00:40:03,777 Speaker 1: try to get your tax dollars to pay for it. 691 00:40:03,817 --> 00:40:09,057 Speaker 1: All right, speaking of people that sit on collecting taxpayer dollars, 692 00:40:09,337 --> 00:40:13,257 Speaker 1: gender a Chuck Schumer after the abortion vote wants to 693 00:40:13,257 --> 00:40:18,497 Speaker 1: talk more crap about Republican The vote we just took 694 00:40:19,017 --> 00:40:25,097 Speaker 1: makes crystal clear the contrast between the parties as we 695 00:40:25,137 --> 00:40:32,617 Speaker 1: approach the midterm elections. Vote elect more pro choice Democrats 696 00:40:33,217 --> 00:40:35,897 Speaker 1: if you want to see a woman have control over 697 00:40:36,017 --> 00:40:40,617 Speaker 1: her own body, Elect more pro choice Democrats. If you 698 00:40:40,657 --> 00:40:43,697 Speaker 1: want to protect a woman's freedom and right to choose 699 00:40:44,777 --> 00:40:48,937 Speaker 1: elect more megarepublicans. If you want to see a nationwide 700 00:40:49,017 --> 00:40:52,337 Speaker 1: ban on abortion, if you want to see doctors and 701 00:40:52,457 --> 00:40:56,337 Speaker 1: women arrested, if you want to see no exceptions for 702 00:40:56,457 --> 00:41:00,377 Speaker 1: rape or insect. You know what's very interesting about that 703 00:41:00,577 --> 00:41:04,857 Speaker 1: is that you know, after they lost that vote, Democrats 704 00:41:04,937 --> 00:41:06,697 Speaker 1: at this point right now, and I know that the 705 00:41:06,737 --> 00:41:08,737 Speaker 1: abortion issue is very thorny and a lot of people 706 00:41:08,737 --> 00:41:10,377 Speaker 1: have a lot of different thoughts on it, but they 707 00:41:10,417 --> 00:41:13,177 Speaker 1: will not go on record as to exactly what they think. 708 00:41:13,257 --> 00:41:15,737 Speaker 1: You have to understand that these people want abortion on 709 00:41:15,857 --> 00:41:19,017 Speaker 1: demand up to and including nine months, but they will 710 00:41:19,017 --> 00:41:21,817 Speaker 1: not say that. They just want to make the Republicans 711 00:41:21,817 --> 00:41:23,817 Speaker 1: seeing evil, which is all they want to do, because 712 00:41:23,817 --> 00:41:28,777 Speaker 1: they're destroying the country now. So Democrat Representative Katie Porter says, 713 00:41:29,217 --> 00:41:33,217 Speaker 1: oh God, we need more abortion because babies are becoming 714 00:41:33,217 --> 00:41:37,457 Speaker 1: more expensive because of inflation. So the fact that things 715 00:41:37,457 --> 00:41:41,137 Speaker 1: like inflation can happen and it become more expensive to 716 00:41:41,137 --> 00:41:45,097 Speaker 1: feed your kids, to fuel your car is exactly why 717 00:41:45,177 --> 00:41:47,257 Speaker 1: people need to be able to be in charge of 718 00:41:47,297 --> 00:41:49,257 Speaker 1: how many e mails they're going to have to feed. 719 00:41:49,497 --> 00:41:51,497 Speaker 1: So I think the fact that we're seeing this jump 720 00:41:51,497 --> 00:41:54,297 Speaker 1: in expenses that we're seeing people having to pay more 721 00:41:54,337 --> 00:41:56,697 Speaker 1: in the grocery store, pay more at the pump, pay 722 00:41:56,737 --> 00:41:59,897 Speaker 1: more for housing. Is a reason that people are saying, 723 00:42:00,257 --> 00:42:03,017 Speaker 1: I need to be able to make my own decisions 724 00:42:03,017 --> 00:42:06,297 Speaker 1: about when and if to start a family. You know, 725 00:42:06,817 --> 00:42:09,937 Speaker 1: it's also sad and it's so gross, but here's the thing. 726 00:42:10,537 --> 00:42:13,897 Speaker 1: This is who these people are, and when they tell 727 00:42:13,977 --> 00:42:16,817 Speaker 1: you who they are, pay attention. There's a reason that 728 00:42:16,857 --> 00:42:19,057 Speaker 1: you got to come to places like the First to 729 00:42:19,257 --> 00:42:21,537 Speaker 1: see clips like that, because they're not going to show 730 00:42:21,537 --> 00:42:23,857 Speaker 1: it to you on the mainstream media network. That's it 731 00:42:23,937 --> 00:42:26,937 Speaker 1: for Tonight's Hold the Line. The No Spin News with 732 00:42:27,097 --> 00:42:30,777 Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly is up next. Chill Tie
