I am Tutor Dixon from the Tutor 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: Dixon Podcast on the Clay and Buck podcast Network. I'm 4 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: filling in today from the Wood Radio Studios in Grand Rapids, Michigan, 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: and I am so excited to welcome my next guest, 6 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,319 Speaker 1: who I want to call a friend, but I also 7 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: don't want to damage his tough guy image, so I'm 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: not going to I'm just going to call him the 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: former Trump twenty twenty four campaign and RNC political director 10 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: James Blair. James, Welcome to the program, James, do we 11 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 1: have you. 12 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 2: Okay? 13 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 1: Well, James, just so everybody knows, James actually worked with 14 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: me here in Michigan on my political campaign. He won 15 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: what I would say was an almost impossible race to 16 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: win here in the state of Michigan with a candidate 17 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: was unknown, So I really appreciate what he did for 18 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: me in the primary. We were we smoked the competition, 19 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: and it was incredible to have James on my team. 20 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 2: And now I know that James. 21 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: Is out there every day fighting to make sure that 22 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: we are on top of things with the midterms. So 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: I want to talk to him about that. We've got 24 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: him now, James, welcome to the program. 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 2: Thanks for having me, absolutely, so tell us what we 26 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: should be expecting. 27 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: We know that after Virginia and New Jersey and New York, 28 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: everybody was saying Democrats are going to take the midterms. 29 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: There's no question about it. Republicans are not focused on 30 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: the high cost of living. But I think that's changing. 31 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: Tell us your thoughts. 32 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, first, of course that's not true. I mean 33 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 3: what's actually happened is the President and the Republicans have 34 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 3: spent the year making a lot of progress and cleaning 35 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 3: up the mess that Biden the Democrats left us. Remember, 36 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 3: they're the ones that gave us the record high prices 37 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 3: through record high inflation. The reason people's costs are up 38 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 3: and their wages were down prior to this year is 39 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: because of Democrat policy. So, first of all, they're the 40 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 3: ones that broke it, and President Trump and the Republicans 41 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: are fixing it. That started by doing the tax bill 42 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: this year, which brought all of the President and the 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 3: Republican campaign promises to fruition, no tax on tips, no 44 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security, and there's 45 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 3: many others that could go on, and people are going 46 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 3: to get those tax returns in April, they're going to 47 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 3: feel that money back in their pocket. Under Joe Biden, 48 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 3: the average American earner lost about three thousand dollars in 49 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 3: real take home and pay, and under President Trump and 50 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 3: the Republicans this year, that's back up thirteen hundred dollars. 51 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 3: So we have more work to do, but we're going in. 52 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 4: The right direction. 53 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 3: And what you're going to see as the President enters 54 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 3: the new year here, you're going to see him rolling 55 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 3: out new policy proposals, both things he can do executively 56 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 3: and things that Congress will need to act on to 57 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 3: continue that work to ultimately make people whole from what 58 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 3: Biden and the Democrats took from them and make them 59 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 3: better off economically than they ever were before. So that's 60 00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 3: what this year is going to be all about. It 61 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 3: continue the work that we're doing. 62 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: Okay, I hear what you're saying, but I'm also seeing 63 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: some of these Democrat governors who are saying they're not 64 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: going to do the no tax on tips and the 65 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: no tax on overtime, and they're kind of like pushing 66 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 1: back on that. Is that going to be something that 67 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: Republicans in those states can use against them or is 68 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: that going to be something that is going to ultimately 69 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: affect the people on the ground and they if they're 70 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: not that aware of politics, they won't realize that they're 71 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: not getting what they should be getting. 72 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I think that, you know, some people 73 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 3: may not realize it. I think it should be used 74 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 3: politically against every Democrat governor that's doing that. And what's 75 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 3: important is people are still going to get the federal 76 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 3: tax cuts, they're going to get the deduction that happens naturally. 77 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: But what the states are doing is they're saying, you're 78 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: not going to get that deduction off your state income taxes. 79 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 3: We still want to collect that extra tax money. So 80 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 3: people in blue states that have state income taxes should 81 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: have a bigger return because their income is going down 82 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: off which there's taxes are calculated. They're going down because 83 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 3: we cut their taxes. But Democrats are saying, no, no, 84 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: we're not going to let that happen. So you know, 85 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: it's obviously up to every candidate individually to highlight that. 86 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: I've personally highlighted that I've made that very clear. You 87 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 3: can go to my ex account where I'm talking about 88 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 3: the fact that Democrat governors are basically pocketing the tax 89 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 3: refunds that people are do. But irrespective of that, people 90 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: are still going to get major tax cuts. And I 91 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 3: think that as people adjust their withholding here in January, 92 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 3: they're going to see immediate boosts to their paychecks. And 93 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: again they're going to get all of last year because 94 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 3: these tax refunds, these these tax cuts were retroactive to 95 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 3: Januaruary twenty five, tutors, you know, so everybody who didn't 96 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 3: know that last year, they're going to get all of 97 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 3: that tax benefit up front here in April by the 98 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: time they file their taxes. 99 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: That's what we're hearing. 100 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: We're hearing people are going to get big money back 101 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: that they aren't expecting, and we expect that to be 102 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: something that Republicans will be able to highlight in the midterms. 103 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: But there is this historical trend of the midterm, it's 104 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: flipping to the other side. We've already got Nancy Pelosi, 105 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,920 Speaker 1: we talked about nance earlier in the program. We've already 106 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: got her saying that the Democrats are going to win. 107 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: How do we buck that trend? How many seats do 108 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: we really see in play here. 109 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 3: Well, look, I think this is a I think the 110 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 3: map is constructed in a way. It's not like twenty seventeen. 111 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 3: First of all, we are in a much better position 112 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 3: than we were at the same time in twenty seventeen, 113 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: whether you look at the generic ballid average or anything 114 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 3: like that, I mean substantially better off. This is not 115 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 3: the same political environment as people are sort of comparing 116 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: to the House maps just the way they exist now. 117 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 3: I think it's going to be a narrow house majority 118 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: either way. I don't think you're going to see, you know, 119 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 3: major swings sort of one way or another. The question 120 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 3: is who controls it. The Republicans are in a very 121 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 3: offensive position. We absolutely have all the tools to win. 122 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 3: We have the map to win. We have to run 123 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 3: good campaigns, and we have to create clear contrasts with 124 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 3: the Democrats. And I think we have all the ingredients 125 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: to do that. But but you know that starts first 126 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 3: and foremost with educating the people on what we've done, 127 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: obviously tauting our accomplishments, but also telling them what we 128 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 3: are going to do next. I think that's incumbent on 129 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 3: the Republicans to go to the ballot box, saying, here 130 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 3: is how we are going to continue to make your 131 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 3: life more affordable. Here is how we are going to 132 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 3: restore affordability for the average working man and woman in America. 133 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 3: And as long as we do that, we will be successful. 134 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 1: There's a fear that Donald Trump is unique, that Donald 135 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: Trump wins and Republicans need him. Susie Yles said, we're 136 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: going to put him on the ballot. What does that 137 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: look like. 138 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 3: That looks like the president traveling the country getting out 139 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 3: the vote. And obviously, you know he is our party leader. 140 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: He is the agenda setter, in the vision setter, and 141 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 3: that's what he is going to do, as I mentioned, 142 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 3: rolling out new policies throughout the year, but then obviously 143 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 3: just being a get out the vote machine where he's 144 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 3: traveling and he just went to a couple of target 145 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 3: districts just before Christmas. He went up and visited Rob 146 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 3: Bresnahan's district in Pennsylvania, and he also went down to 147 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 3: Don Davis's district that's the Democrat in North Carolina, one 148 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 3: that'll be targeted for flipping. So he's already started that 149 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 3: and you're going to see a lot of that throughout 150 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: the year, getting out the vote what he does best. 151 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: So we hear he's like never sleeping. And I saw that. 152 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: I actually saw that right before Christmas. He's out campaigning. Essentially, 153 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: he's having rallies. He's telling the people what the United 154 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: States government is doing for them, which is so critical 155 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: because only he can do that. Only he has ever 156 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: figured that out. And he definitely does not have the 157 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: media on his side. 158 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: But what is he really? Is it really true? I mean, 159 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: can this man possibly never sleep? 160 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's mostly true. Sometimes they we 161 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 3: wish he would sleep more so we could sleep more. 162 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 3: He works all the time. I mean, right now, a 163 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: bunch of us are down here in Florida with him, 164 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 3: and he's spending his day taking meetings, preparing for the 165 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 3: new year. There's no such thing as a big holiday 166 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 3: break for the president. He's down here, he has us 167 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: all working. I'm standing outside of his home here as 168 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: we as we speak to you, So, yep, I can 169 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 3: affirmatively say he's not sleeping, He's just working. 170 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 2: Most importantly, do you miss the weather in Michigan. 171 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 3: This time of year? No? But I love the summer 172 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 3: weather up there. 173 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 2: It is, It is beautiful up here in Michigan. 174 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: Okay, so we do see him taking these meetings, we 175 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: see him doing great things. There has been there have 176 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: been some people that have said, oh, these meetings are 177 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: meetings that are international meetings. We want to see these 178 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: good things happening back at home. We had the Secretary 179 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: of Commerce, Howard Lutnick on at the beginning of the program, 180 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: and he was talking about we are going to see 181 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: lower prices on energy costs, on electricity in people's houses. 182 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: Is that something that you expect to see before we 183 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: actually have people going to the polls? 184 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. 185 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, gas prices have come down a ton. 186 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 3: We see that, and we are trying to do things 187 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 3: to lower you costs. I mean you mentioned, is that 188 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 3: something we're going to see? Yes, I think the answer 189 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 3: is in some areas, yes, I mean right now. So 190 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 3: there's a natural gas pipeline that the Democrats in the 191 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 3: northeast and primarily the governor of New York, have been 192 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: blocking for a number of years. This pipeline project could 193 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: be done in six to nine months, and if they 194 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 3: would just get out of the way, if they would 195 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 3: get out of their crazy environmentalist thing and just allow 196 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: us to build a pipeline which would use would like 197 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 3: clean natural gas flow, the average Northeasterners home utility bill 198 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,199 Speaker 3: would go down almost three thousand dollars a year. These 199 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: are solvable problems, but sometimes they're not totally with our 200 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 3: within our control. In this case, the Democrats in New 201 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 3: York have to get out of the way, and we're 202 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 3: hopeful that we will ultimately bring that to a good conclusion. 203 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 3: So there's stuff like that everywhere that that we will 204 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 3: be highlighting. But then at the macro level, I think 205 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 3: you will see some utility prices come down. And on 206 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 3: the trade deals, it's important you talk about the international engagement. 207 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,959 Speaker 3: And the President says this too, as the president, folks, 208 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 3: this is what would appear sometimes to be things abroad. 209 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,080 Speaker 3: But these trade deals, they are good for our domestic economics. 210 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 3: Right now, the deficit is coming down because of the tariffs. 211 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 3: It's down I think forty percent year over year from 212 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 3: the same period last year. And what that does is 213 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 3: that drives down interest rates. That makes it more affordable 214 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 3: for people to borrow money to buy a home, to 215 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 3: buy a car. So we're bringing that money back. We 216 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 3: just use some of that money to give relief to 217 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 3: our farmers who have had a rough season here all 218 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 3: across the country. So the international things the President's doing 219 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 3: is ultimately to help people here domestically, and I think 220 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 3: that's a really important point to highlight and drive home. 221 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: Well, it sounds like the map a set. 222 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: We appreciate the fact that you came on today to 223 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: talk about the midterms. It is so important for everybody 224 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 1: out there listening that we continue the president's agenda. I 225 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: know they want to hear that that's going well. So 226 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: I appreciate you coming on. It is James Blair again. 227 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: He is the former Trump twenty two twenty four campaign 228 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: and RNC political director, and we look forward to seeing 229 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: more great things coming out of this administration in twenty 230 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: twenty six. Thank you for coming on. 231 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: Today, Thanks for having me absolutely and for everybody else. 232 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: Stick around. 233 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: We are taking a deep dive into the betrayal of 234 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green. Next she tells this all these things 235 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: in the New York Times magazine. How does Marjorie Taylor 236 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: Green go into the New York Times magazine? 237 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: Stick around? 238 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: We're going to get into it all right after this. 239 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere. 240 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:38,359 Speaker 5: Adrians Radio hosts a couple of regular guys Clay Travis 241 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 5: and Buck Sex to them. 242 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 6: Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you 243 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 6: get your podcasts. 244 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: I understand where he's coming from. 245 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: But she tells she texts the New York Times writer, 246 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor Green texts the New York Times writer, I mean, 247 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: this is like texting the enemy, in my opinion, And. 248 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 2: She texts that was the absolute worst statement. 249 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 1: It just shows where his heart is and the difference 250 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: between her Erica meaning Erica having sincere Christian faith and 251 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: proves that he does not have any faith. 252 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: How do you say, how do you say you are 253 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 2: being more christ Like? 254 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: And then you comment on whether or not you think 255 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: someone else has Christian faith? 256 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 7: Right, and to someone who works for a newspaper that 257 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 7: will do anything to destroy Donald Trump. And that's what 258 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 7: is so bizarre in this whole situation with Marjorie Taylor 259 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 7: Green is for years now that she has been in office, 260 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 7: the media has hated Marjorie Taylor Green because she was 261 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 7: I would say, you know, maybe in the Congress, she 262 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 7: was the number one Trump supporter. Remember when he was 263 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 7: on trial in New York. She went to New York 264 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 7: and stood on the sidewalk outside the courthouse rallying support 265 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 7: for him. Yes, and they and the media hates Marjorie 266 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 7: Taylor Green, at least they. 267 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 2: Used to also. 268 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: She was also one of those ones that would yell 269 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,719 Speaker 1: out and remember she yelled out of the State of 270 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:10,719 Speaker 1: the Union and so. 271 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 7: And they just hated her for it, Yes, exactly. But 272 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 7: who do they hate more? Donald Trump? And she became 273 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 7: she only became fashionable recently because they could use her 274 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 7: against him. 275 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: Yep, right, No, just just as soon as she said 276 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: she was resigning. Then she's like on the View and 277 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: she's talking to the New York Times, and she's on CNN, 278 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 1: and what is the endgame here? And she keeps very interestingly, 279 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: she keeps pointing out that she believes she is America first. 280 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 1: She doesn't talk about MAGA. She used to always talk 281 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: about MAGA. Now she's like, you know what, I want 282 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: to be America First. She's attacking the president on you 283 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: know what we just talked to James about, which is 284 00:13:55,400 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 1: so critical having these meetings with these international leaders to 285 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: make sure not only that the United States has good 286 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: trade deals but also the security of the United States, 287 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: to make sure we know what's happening in other countries 288 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: with these terror organizations, and that we have good insights 289 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: into whether or not we are going to be attacked. 290 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 2: But she doesn't want any of that. 291 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: She says, it's got to be America first, America only. 292 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: But I really believe, and I've been told this by 293 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: people which I don't know. It's like there's a toss 294 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: up right now. Is she looking for a spot on 295 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: the view or is she looking to run for president? 296 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 7: And that's what is so bizarre, and so she here, 297 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 7: she is, she's you know, covorting with the New York Times. 298 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 7: She is posting pictures with code pink, which think about 299 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 7: code pink for a second. Is there an organization that 300 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 7: hates Donald Trump more than well, maybe the CCP, but 301 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 7: they're connected to the CCP, so they're sort of one 302 00:14:56,120 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 7: and the same. But these organizations they're using Marjorie Taylor 303 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 7: Green because because what they try to do is, and 304 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 7: we see this on cable news all the time, what 305 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 7: they try to do is they find someone who is 306 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 7: a loyalist or who used to or maybe I should 307 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 7: say an ally, and then they turned them and it's 308 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 7: like proof that you know, Trump is bad, But like 309 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 7: Oh my gosh. 310 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 2: The last person I would think would be that week. 311 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: I mean, really, I believed her stick. 312 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 7: That's that's what's so bizarre. And she's from I believe 313 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 7: it's the most conservative district in Georgia. And I think, 314 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 7: what a lot of people find objectionable. And we saw 315 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 7: these photos of her in the last couple of days 316 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 7: on the beach wherever she was, and she's checked out, 317 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 7: and here she is, she's still on the US taxpayer 318 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 7: dime and she's checked out. And I think what a 319 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 7: lot of people found objectionable about her quitting because she 320 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 7: could have just announced I'm giving up, i don't want 321 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 7: to do this anymore. I'm not running for reelection, and 322 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 7: so she would complete her term. But she didn't do that. 323 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 7: She's actually quitting, and then that forces it creates a vacancy, 324 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 7: which then makes the Republican majority in the House one 325 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 7: seat smaller one and that's one more vote they can't 326 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 7: give up. And so it's creating a very unfortunate situation 327 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 7: for President Trump and his agenda. 328 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 1: I know there's been this discussion of kind of like 329 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: this rift in Maga, and I don't these influencers, they 330 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: don't bother me that much because I know that they're 331 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: they're not Congressman, They're not there for the people. They're 332 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: getting paid by the tax payers. They change their opinion 333 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: with whoever is sponsoring their podcast, So I don't care 334 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: so much about what they're doing. But I think this 335 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 1: is a true betrayal. And to wait until she gets 336 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: her pension, I just think it's sick.

But let's talk about 371 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 4: the subject of the fraud in Minnesota and particularly in 372 00:18:56,720 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 4: the Twin Cities area. It is Minnesota, are literally outraged. 373 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 4: That's what happening with the fraud. It looks like it's 374 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 4: going to be between nine and eleven billion. It goes 375 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 4: from the housing fraud to medicaid fraud, to medical transportation fraud, 376 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 4: to housing fraud, medicaid fraud, Kyle Care fraud, and the 377 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 4: list goes on and on under Governor Walls. And I'm 378 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 4: very happy that the Trump administration is putting all their 379 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 4: efforts into making sure that fraud that was perpetrated upon 380 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 4: Minnesotans and the American taxpayer there will be people held accountable. 381 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 4: I'm confident of that. And we're going to root out 382 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 4: the waste, fraud and abuse in Minnesota under our derelict 383 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:46,159 Speaker 4: Governor Kim Walls. 384 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: Okay, so we've got Congressman Pete Stauber with us. He 385 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 1: is wearing his stormy chromer hat. Kyle Olsen is in 386 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: the studio with us. He also brought his stormy chromer 387 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 1: hat today. So I just want to say that Congress 388 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 1: which has the Upper Peninsula on it, So we appreciate, 389 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: we appreciate you calling out a good Michigan company there. 390 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: But I do want to ask you about the governor 391 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 1: because we all of us are going, Oh, my goodness, 392 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 1: this guy was running to be the vice president of 393 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 1: the United States. 394 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 2: Should he be held accountable? Should he resign? 395 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 4: Tud He's going to be held accountable. I want your 396 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 4: listeners to understand Tim Walls had a cover over him 397 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 4: with the Minneapolis to Twin Cities media. They didn't We 398 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 4: knew when Kamala Harris chose him. We knew that the 399 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 4: national media was going to expose him for the fraud 400 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 4: he is and they certainly did that, and the American 401 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 4: people spoke. And what I will tell you that I 402 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 4: believe that when the administration gets done with their investigations, 403 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,239 Speaker 4: you are going to see people being held accountable, and 404 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 4: that includes our governor. I can't imagine that our governor 405 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 4: didn't know about this, because when there were whistleblowers even 406 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 4: several years ago, his administration threatened them and bullied them 407 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 4: into being quiet. It has been exposed, and I think 408 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 4: there's eleven federal agencies on the ground in Minnesota making 409 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 4: sure that they're going to root out the fraud and 410 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 4: hold the people accountable. And the person I believe most 411 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 4: culpable is our governor. I believe that he knew what 412 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: was going on, but he turned a blind eye because 413 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:39,360 Speaker 4: it was a voting block for him and his Democrats. 414 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 7: So talk a little bit because that was going to 415 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 7: be my question is why did he do that? So 416 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 7: talk a little bit more about sort of the political 417 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 7: dynamics within the state. 418 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 4: Well, there's over one hundred thousand Smolians living in Minneapolis, 419 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 4: and so that's a voting block that the Democrat party 420 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 4: needs if they're going to win statewide offices. And it's 421 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 4: my opinion and I believe that the investigations will show 422 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 4: that he was complicit. He knew this was happening, but 423 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 4: turned a blind eye to hold on the power for 424 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 4: he and other Democrats in Minnesota. 425 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 1: It's interesting that you say that because as Nick Shirley 426 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: was kind of digging into the Daycares and digging into 427 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: the Medicare fraud and all of that, Scott Presler, who 428 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,399 Speaker 1: was on the sideline saying, I want to look into 429 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 1: what exactly is going on with elections and how that's working. 430 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 2: We've seen this now in. 431 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 1: Multiple states across the country different years. But in two 432 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: thousand and eight Scott put this out and we've confirmed. 433 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: In two thousand and eight, Democrat Senator al Frankin won 434 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: his election by three hundred and twelve votes, but that 435 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: year they added five hundred and forty two thousand voters 436 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: by same day registration is come. 437 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 4: On, tutor. In Minnesota, one individual can vouch for eight 438 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 4: other individuals to say, you know, during election, the day 439 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 4: of election, you can vouch for them, that they're there, 440 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 4: they can legally vote. So you have one individual taking 441 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 4: eight people vouching for them. And we know that we 442 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 4: know that we want our we want our elections to 443 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 4: be safe and secure. And under the Democrat trifecta in Minnesota, 444 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 4: under Walls's watch, they gave and I'm talking about the 445 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 4: Democrat legislature and the governor gave illegals free health care, 446 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: free driver's license, and free college. Uh. And it's just 447 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 4: it's it's outrageous. 448 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 1: So to me, this is just bananas when you think 449 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: about it. So what you're saying is that you can 450 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 1: show up on election day to a polling place with 451 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: eight friends and if you are a legal if you 452 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: are a legal Minnesota resident, you can say, hey, trust me, 453 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:05,320 Speaker 1: these guys are good. 454 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 2: You should let them vote today. 455 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 4: That's exactly right, that's exactly the laws within the state 456 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,400 Speaker 4: of Minnesota, and it was brought to us by the 457 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 4: Democrat legislature. 458 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:20,239 Speaker 1: That is insane. So we've got Congressman Pete Stabber with 459 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: us talking about this. This is what is happening. How 460 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,679 Speaker 1: do you I mean, you're in northern Minnesota, so to me, 461 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: you're still in a safe place. But how do you 462 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: ever get a Republican governor again if this is the case, 463 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: and why would Tim Walls let anybody hold him accountable? 464 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 1: They're just going to continue to elect the people that 465 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: they want. 466 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 4: So for Tutor, I want you and your listeners to 467 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 4: understand this, Governor Wall. This was brought to Governor Walls 468 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 4: and his administration. The whistleblowers came between five and six 469 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 4: years ago. Again, they threatened them, bully them, and you know, 470 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 4: tried to shut them up. And now Walls is saying 471 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 4: that those of us who want to hold the fraudsters 472 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 4: accountable are racist. Yes, he is called Minnesotan's racists who 473 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 4: want to root out this fraud. And I will tell 474 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 4: you that that is not working. And and this is 475 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 4: it used to. 476 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 2: It used to, but I think people have caught on. 477 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 4: They're not there. That's that's what people use to try 478 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 4: to scary off. No, we want fraud to end. No 479 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 4: matter who doesn't, fraud must end. We're going to go 480 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,359 Speaker 4: after them. And the Trump administration is putting all efforts 481 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 4: into stopping the fraud in Minnesota under Tim Wallas's watch, 482 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 4: and uh, I mean Tudor. We have we have childcare 483 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 4: deserts up in northern Minnesota where we need childcare. And 484 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 4: then we look down in the Twin Cities and there's 485 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 4: hundreds of millions of dollars going out to childcare centers 486 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 4: that don't even have one child in them. 487 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't recommend taking kids there. 488 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 4: See this unbelievable. 489 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 7: So is is the only hope that Trump administration or 490 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 7: are their agencies or I know the Attorney general in 491 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 7: Minnesota is not going to do anything. So it is 492 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 7: the only hope that Trump administration. 493 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Attorney general, Keith Elison in Minnesota is a disaster. 494 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 4: Our governor is a disaster. We need the state of 495 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 4: Minnesota needs to be saved. And the Trump administration and 496 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 4: their investigators are are We want them to do a 497 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 4: thorough job. We believe there's going to be subpoenas and 498 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 4: search warrants and court cases going on. We have to 499 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 4: solve this because Minnesotans deserved better. And by the way, 500 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 4: this isn't just a Republican or Democrat issue, this is 501 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 4: a This is an entire Minnesota issue. And I can 502 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 4: talk to people across the political spectrum that are fed 503 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 4: up with this. Even my Democrat friends are embarrassed and 504 00:26:55,160 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 4: ashamed that this happened under their trifecta trifecta and their WAK. 505 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 4: There was no accountability, there was no safeguards in place. 506 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 4: And for your listeners, between nine and eleven billion dollars, 507 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 4: that's what the US Attorney believes. Half of that eighteen 508 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 4: billion dollar surface that we had just a couple of 509 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 4: years ago now is into a six billion dollar tax 510 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 4: increase for Minnesotan's. 511 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: If you are watching these reports that are coming out, 512 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: I mean some of these centers that have clearly not 513 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 1: had kids there. They're closed, They're never open. People go 514 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: there at all hours of the day. They're not open. 515 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 2: Some of them have gotten over the last since I 516 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 2: think twenty nineteen, ten million dollars. 517 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 4: Oh and tutor that the million dollars is probably the 518 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 4: lowest amount that was given out. Remember Nick Shirley, Remember 519 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:54,679 Speaker 4: that the Leering Center Eli Yeah yeah, Ryang not learning 520 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,400 Speaker 4: but liaring center was brought in millions of dollars a year. 521 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 4: Not one person was there. So we have to as Minnesotans, 522 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 4: we have to admit there has been uh, there has 523 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 4: been damage. We're going to correct it. And I can 524 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 4: tell you the Republicans in Minnesota. Thank god that the 525 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 4: Republicans took the House of Representatives in Minnesota, because had 526 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 4: they not, this would have continued. It had been it 527 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 4: would have been shoved under the rug. Again. The Twin 528 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 4: Cities media, the Minneapolis Star and Tribune has some information 529 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 4: like on the third, fourth and fifth pages there's still 530 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 4: not a major article written on Walls's fraud here in 531 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 4: Minnesota and in our state's biggest newspaper.

He 566 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: stormed the beaches of Normandy. He was at the Battle 567 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: of the Bulge.

This generation never ceases to amaze me. But 573 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 1: then I see Dominic critic. I think it's Critelli, who 574 00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: recently played the national anthem on his saxophone at the 575 00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: New Islanders game and then the New York Islanders game, 576 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: and I'm like, wait a minute, this guy blows the 577 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: other guy away a little bit.

Don't you think that's beautiful. 585 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, and he held that note. It was great. 586 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 1: No, I know, because you know you're that age. I 587 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: try to get my kids to stay in band. So 588 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: my little one, I have a very tiny twelve year 589 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: old who played the saxophone, and she was kind of 590 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: like the sister in the Simpsons. What was the sister's names, Lisa, 591 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: that's right, So she was a little bit like Lisa, 592 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: but she did not stick with it. I wanted her too, 593 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: she did not. But I think that that was incredible 594 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 1: listening to him play. 595 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 7: Yeah and everyone chanted USA, and it was a great moment. 596 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: It's really impressive to see this generation, the greatest generation, 597 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: still out there and they are so eager to talk. 598 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: And that's what I loved about my conversation with Ir 599 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: Locker on the podcast was that he was so eager 600 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: to talk about his experiences in the war. 601 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 2: We don't really get to. 602 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: Hear that very often from people who actually fought in 603 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: World War Two. 604 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 2: To go into detail, he had emotional moments. 605 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: I mean, here he is one hundred and one years old, 606 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: many years away from World War Two, and he still 607 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 1: talked to me about it like it was yesterday. The 608 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: emotions that he felt when he saw the people in 609 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: the camps when they liberated the camp's very unique experience 610 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: Irving had because he spoke Yiddish, so he was able 611 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: to communicate with the people who had been in the camp. 612 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: They used him for that communication. I love the fact 613 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: that this generation is still out there and when you 614 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: see these guys they look frail, you think about what 615 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 1: they did. 616 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: Your grandfather was there. 617 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, he would have turned one hundred in twenty twenty five, 618 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 7: and but we we did a family trip to Poland 619 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 7: this earlier this year to see he was a pow 620 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 7: and we were able to see where he was in 621 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 7: the camp and everything.
