1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: All right, our two Sean Hannity Show eight hundred nine 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 1: four one, Shawn on number as we kick off this 3 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: presidential election year from our new home, on my new home, 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,320 Speaker 1: which is the Free State of Florida. Our number remains 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,319 Speaker 1: the same, eight hundred ninety four one, Shawn. If you 6 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program, We're now 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,920 Speaker 1: at a point everybody, every day is going to be 8 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: prognosticating on what's about to happen. And I just as 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,080 Speaker 1: I said in the last hour, I want to warn 10 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: all of you that you know, get ready, buckle up. 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: It's going to be up and down in an emotional 12 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: roller coaster. The certain things that you can absolutely depend on, 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: and that is that the media is going to go 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 1: all in to do everything they can do to elect 15 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: assuming it's Joe Biden or whatever whoever the Democrat happens 16 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: to be, to be the next president. They will slander, 17 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: they will smear, they will be smirch, they will attack, 18 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: they will be unrel lending, they will use by any 19 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: means necessary, they will tell any lie to advance their 20 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: radical socialist agenda. The biggest, the biggest problem they all 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: face is that Joe Biden's policies have not been successful, 22 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: and as events continue to unfold in the world stage, 23 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: and in despite of everyone lecturing us how great the 24 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: economy was, and oh Wall Street had a good year, 25 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: it's not impacting the majority of Americans, as is now 26 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: referenced by many of these polls. For example, Wall Street 27 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: Journal poll released on New Year's weekend, you know, shows 28 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden losing to Donald Trump by four points, a 29 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: significant sixty one percent of respondents expressing their disapproval of 30 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: Biden's performance in office. And it comes down to the 31 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: basic stupid, are you better off than you were four 32 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: years ago? You know what policies has Joe Biden put 33 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: in place that that have bettered the lives of we you, 34 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: the American people. And then then you look at a 35 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: little deeper into the USA Today poll and everything in between. 36 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: These these poll numbers are devastating. You know, if you 37 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: look at this USA Today poll, you know, Biden has 38 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: lost a whopping thirty one points with Hispanic American voters. 39 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: In fact, it's it's now so bad Donald Trump is 40 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: winning in that demographic. He's lost a significant amount of 41 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: young people, a significant amount of African Americans, and He's 42 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: losing in every pole imaginable, which is why you know 43 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: I would be on guard from now until the DNZ 44 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: you know, uh primaries, and after the primaries, and then 45 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 1: when we get to the convention, you know, up till 46 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: that point. Democrats, I think are going to be very 47 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: capable of making a last minute switcher route. But I 48 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: don't think, based on these poll numbers in USA today 49 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: that it's going to be Kamala Harris because her numbers 50 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: are lower than his numbers. Anyway, joining us now as 51 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: we take a snapshot kicking off the new year, Matt 52 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: Towery is with insider advantage and Robert Kahelly is back 53 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: with us with the Trafalgar Group. Gentlemen, Happy new Year, 54 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: Glad you're with us, and welcome to our new broadcasting home, 55 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: my new home in the state of Florida. 56 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I'm welcoming you, Hannity. I got here long 57 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: before you did, so welcome to the Sunshine State. 58 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: I'll tell you it's funny because I actually went out 59 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: a number of days and met a lot of people. 60 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: There wasn't one person that didn't like me. I'm used 61 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: to being hated everywhere I go, so it was a 62 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: refreshing change of pace. I got to tell you that anyway, 63 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: happy to your look, let's look at these numbers here. 64 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: But you know, even NBC is pointing out that Biden 65 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: right now has the lowest approval rating of any incumbent 66 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: president starting out an election year. 67 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 3: How significant is that? 68 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 2: Well, if you're asking me that question, Sean, I would 69 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 2: say that it's fairly significant. Now we have to remember 70 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: how these polls operate. Like they did in twenty twenty, 71 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 2: you had all kinds of network and broadcast and print 72 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 2: polls coming out, got down to the very end, when 73 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: you had those swing states all the way down to 74 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: the end. They are going to be tight no matter 75 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: who the Democratic nominee is. I think it looks good 76 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: for Republicans, but trust me, those poles will narrow in 77 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: those key states and that's what we're gonna have to watch, 78 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 2: no matter who the Democratic nominee is. 79 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: Let's get your take, Robert Kahelly, do you first of 80 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: all agree with Matt on everything? And as you you know, 81 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: take a snapshot of where we are starting out this 82 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: new year. 83 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 3: What does it say to you? 84 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 4: First of all, Sean, let me welcome you to Pisouth. 85 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 4: It's good to have you back. 86 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 3: It's great to be back. 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,679 Speaker 1: I never should have left, but I had no choice 88 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: because the Fox News channel is based in New York, 89 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: but you know I'm based out of the Miami Bureau. 90 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 4: Well, you know, the way I look at it is 91 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: the polls are one thing, but it really does come 92 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 4: out turning out voters. And until the Republicans learn how 93 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 4: to build the kind of machine that the Democrats have, 94 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 4: these races are competitive, and it's not just a matter 95 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 4: of voting early, it is an entire machine. When that 96 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 4: when when and Matt, Matt and I specifically discussed this, 97 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 4: when they parachuted in a thousand grassroots people to work 98 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 4: professionals paid people into Georgia for that Senate race. I've 99 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 4: never seen anything like that. So until the Republican Party 100 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 4: builds that kind of an apparatus that isn't about making 101 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: a few consultants rich and is about winning elections. If 102 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 4: these races are gonna be tight no matter what happens, well. 103 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 3: I think they're going to be tight too. 104 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: I mean I think everybody has to assume that this 105 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: is gonna Look, we both. 106 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 3: We all three of us know this. 107 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: Literally this year can come down to six states and 108 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: six hundred thousand voters, and that's it. And that's why 109 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: when I listen to some you know, what I call 110 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: like super super duper maga that think that the most 111 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: Maga of the Maga movement, you know, I sit there 112 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: in amazement because they don't want to seem to make 113 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: any appeal to voters that actually usually traditionally win the election, 114 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 1: and those would be crossover voters or what we call 115 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: independent voters. 116 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: Matt True and you know, the times of wasting, so 117 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: to speak. I mean, we're focused now, you know, on 118 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: the Iowa caucus and the primary in New Hampshire and 119 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: the like. But in the blink of an eye, we're 120 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: going to know what's going on and we're going to 121 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 2: be right back to where we were in twenty twenty. 122 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 2: And I don't know if you recall you do recall this, Sean, 123 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 2: but President Trump his re election campaign, they were scrounging 124 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 2: around for money to get ads up. The ads they 125 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 2: were running weren't very good. The organization of the ballot 126 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: security was not all that great. And now I think 127 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 2: that the Trump organization has their acting a little bit 128 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 2: better together this time because Robert and I have both 129 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: been shocked to read these stories about how well organized 130 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: they are in Iowa. I didn't know they were capable 131 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: of this kind of organization, but apparently they're doing it. 132 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: So if Trump's nomini, perhaps they learned from twenty twenty. 133 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: But the Republican Party as a whole, I haven't seen 134 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 2: any evidence yet they really have a big push to 135 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,240 Speaker 2: get these votes out and to go find the votes. 136 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 2: You have to go find voters. They don't just sit 137 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: on the side of a street. They have to be found, 138 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: and that's what the Democrats are good at doing. 139 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: I say this all the time. 140 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: I said it in the last hour, I may be 141 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 1: repeated every hour I'm on the air this year leading 142 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: up to the election, and that is Republicans have to 143 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: overcome their reluctance and their resistance to voting early and 144 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: voting by mail. I know it's not the system you want, 145 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: but it's the system you've got deal with what the 146 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: reality is. And the second thing is is I don't 147 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: see any efforts by the RNC, and I've tried to 148 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: say it now for over a year to match the 149 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: efforts of Democratic the Democratic Party and their legal ballant 150 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: harvesting efforts which are tremendous. 151 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 5: I think there's no question this is a this is 152 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 5: a massive problem in is in this fundamental u The 153 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 5: Democrat Party is built on a structure that is based 154 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 5: on winning elections. 155 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 4: That is all they focus on is winning elections, putting 156 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 4: the right people in place, you know, having having trained 157 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 4: professionals who are out there organizing, and the Republican Party 158 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 4: just isn't there and it's not I mean getting everybody 159 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 4: early Sean is the beginning. I mean that ought to 160 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,119 Speaker 4: be step one. That can't be the whole playbook. 161 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:49,959 Speaker 5: That's not enough. 162 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 4: It has gotten to be about widening that appeal, getting 163 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 4: getting those new people, and not just for getting people 164 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 4: who are on the other side, who are who disenchanted 165 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 4: and given them a reason. I mean, these young people 166 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 4: are looking for somewhere to go, and so do an 167 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 4: appealing these people. 168 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: What do you think about the USA Today poll and 169 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: their analysis of a potential third party candidate, Matt Tower A. 170 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: Do you think there's going to be a third party 171 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: candidate b If you look at the poll in the 172 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: USA Today, the Suffolk University poll anyway, if it's Trump anyway, 173 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: Biden would still be trailing, but a whopping seventeen percent 174 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: supporting an unnamed third party candidate. Black voters, in particular 175 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: African Americans, they're saying they will support a third party 176 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: candidate November. If these numbers with minorities hold, there's no 177 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: way mathematically, I see that Joe Biden losing that significant 178 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: a portion of the Democratic Party base can actually win. 179 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 2: Matt Well, We've got to remember this. In twenty twenty, 180 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 2: what really got the African American vote moving were unforeseen 181 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 2: circumstances that took place to cause the riots of twenty twenty, 182 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: and before that you had the discussion about Charlottesville and 183 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: the issues there. This time, there may be new things 184 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 2: that will cause African American vote to coalesce or turn out. 185 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 2: But what I think will happen Sean, is I think 186 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: we'll probably see a third party candidate. I don't think 187 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 2: that that candidate will get as much of the vote 188 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: as these polls are showing, but I think it will 189 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: be enough of the vote to make the contest between 190 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: the Democratic and Republican nominee very close and give the 191 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 2: Republican a good shot that possibly take me White House back. 192 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 2: That's what I see all. 193 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: Right, quick break, boward up pollsters Matt Towery and Robert 194 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: Haley eight hundred and ninety four one Shawn is a 195 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: number if you want to be a part of the program. 196 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: As we continue now broadcasting my new home, the Free 197 00:10:48,600 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: State of Florida.

As we look 224 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 1: forward to this presidential election year, poll after poll has 225 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: been showing an erosion of minority voters for Joe Biden. 226 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 1: Do you see that holding and that would include young 227 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: people African Americans, Hispanic Americans. 228 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 3: Robert Kaheley, Well. 229 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 4: You know when I look at I know that that 230 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 4: Conor West is looking at running and you've had him 231 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 4: on the show a couple of times. I believe he 232 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 4: has a tremendous appeal. He can, you know, kind of 233 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 4: a pot from both their houses. He donet like you've 234 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 4: the party has a message that tells that these guys 235 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 4: aren't looking up for you. Show them how important you are. 236 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 4: I do think that's a message that could work and 237 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 4: feel awful out of those folks. And you know when 238 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 4: you take when you take that much out of the 239 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 4: Democrats army, that's when you start to do damage. I 240 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 4: mean literally, that is like losing some of their best voliers. 241 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 3: Is one other thing. 242 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: If I'm right in my analysis, Matt, that abortion did 243 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: not help Republicans in twenty twenty two. And I think 244 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,959 Speaker 1: it played a big part in a state, for example, 245 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: like Pennsylvania, where Doug Mastreano, good guy, didn't support any 246 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: exceptions for even rape incest of the mother's life. I 247 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: think that could be the kiss of death for some 248 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 1: Republicans in some states. Democrats want to run an abortion 249 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: hating Trump and then lying about conservatives. How big a 250 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: factor is that going to be? 251 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: Well, the abortion one is a big factor. And the 252 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 2: issue there, Sean is that the Republicans got that decision 253 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 2: handed down fairly. Well, it's leaked of course first, and 254 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: it was handed down, but that that was an almost 255 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: impossible situation for them to handle, happening so quickly before 256 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 2: the elections. What now the public is going to focus on, 257 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 2: the Democrats are going to focus on? Are these individual 258 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,200 Speaker 2: states that have passed these various abortion bills, and I 259 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 2: don't have an opinion one way or another. I'm not 260 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 2: going to talk about it from a moral standpoint. I 261 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: certainly have an opinion, but I don't want to talk 262 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: about that from a Poeing standpoint. Though. The abortion issue 263 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 2: hurts Republicans with white female voters, and believe it or not, 264 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 2: the ones who are most upset about it are the 265 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 2: white females who are over the age of sixty five, 266 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 2: which is pretty ironic that those are the ones who 267 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 2: get the most upset and end the up voting for 268 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: a Democrat. 269 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: How about the issue of abortion from your tak Robert Gailey. 270 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the abortion was a lot scarer in 271 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two because it was the feeling of what 272 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 4: would happen and the extreme alls that were going to 273 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 4: come into place, But the reality of it had most 274 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 4: people who really won't abortion don't live in a state 275 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 4: where it's illegal. It was on the ballot and. 276 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: Right, But what about Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. What about 277 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: the states that actually matter Georgia. 278 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 4: Well, when Michigan is the constitutional amendment is over uh, 279 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 4: And so I'm not sure that Bulson is gonna play 280 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 4: in Michigan. 281 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 5: You know, it could play in Wisconsin. 282 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 4: But uh, I think that they're gonna they're gonna have 283 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 4: the laws that are gonna more fit their state. 284 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 5: Uh Pennsylvania. 285 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 4: I don't know much about any new particular law, and 286 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 4: I don't think it's illegal now. I think in Georgia 287 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 4: it may play because you know, they have the heart 288 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 4: a heartbeat type of uh limitation, So I think in 289 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 4: that state probably more than the others. But in these 290 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 4: states where it's kind of considered settled, I'm not sure 291 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 4: it's gonna play that big. They're gonna demogogt. But if 292 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 4: it's not, if the Republicans aren't running on changing the 293 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 4: law and the law is what the majority like, then 294 00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 4: they should probably leave it alone. 295 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: Are you better off than you more four years ago? 296 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: And what policies as Joe Biden implemented that has made 297 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: your life better? 298 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 3: To me? 299 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: It's really it should come down to that question. Those 300 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: are the last questions that the Democratic Party and the 301 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: media are going to want us to be asking. We'll 302 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: be checking in Offen Matt Towery and Robert Cahley. Thank 303 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: you both. Happy New Year, gentlemen.

That's your testimony today. Calling 380 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 7: for the genocide of Jews is, depending upon the context, 381 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 7: that is not bullying or harassment. This is the easiest 382 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 7: question to answer, yes, Miss McGill.

The speech 387 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 7: is not harassment. This is unacceptable, mismcgil.

Again, it depends on the context. 414 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 7: It does not depend on the context. The answer is yes, 415 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 7: and this is why you should resign. These are unacceptable 416 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 7: answers across the board.

This is 434 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 7: why I've called for your resignation and your testimony today. 435 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 7: Not being able to answer with moral charity speaks volumes, 436 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 7: I yield back. 437 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: Well now, Claudine Gay, the Hovid president is out.

Jason in Florida, Jason High. 441 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: How are you glad you called, sir? 442 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 11: How we're going, Sean? 443 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,239 Speaker 3: What's going on? How are you? 444 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 4: How's it going going good? 445 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 7: So? 446 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: I got a call from a friend of mine in 447 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: New York today and said, how's it down in Florida. 448 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: I said, I love it, and he goes, yeah, it's 449 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: twenty seven degrees up here. 450 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 3: I hate you. 451 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't have to hate me, just you know, 452 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 1: move yourself. It's that simple. 453 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 454 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 4: So I had a question with. 455 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 11: More of a common So we're always bringing up how 456 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 11: Trump needs to come back or have a candidate that 457 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 11: is remotely close to him. So I recently got out 458 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,479 Speaker 11: of the military a little while ago, and I was 459 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 11: there during Trump and during Biden. So for me to 460 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 11: see the significant difference between the two of them, and 461 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 11: how it completely changed the morale, how the retention has 462 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 11: gotten so low, and just the spirit of everybody being 463 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 11: in during these times is this detimental? It is bad. 464 00:24:58,359 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 4: Being in. 465 00:24:59,240 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 2: I know. 466 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:05,360 Speaker 11: Trump raised the pay for military three percent, and it 467 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,719 Speaker 11: boosts everybody. Everyone had a little more confidence training. 468 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 10: I think. 469 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,959 Speaker 1: I think the best thing he did was allow people 470 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: that needed care. Remember that there was two sets of 471 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:20,360 Speaker 1: books that the VA were keeping. One remember that we've 472 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 1: had that big scandal, and one set of books was 473 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: the real set of books. Somebody would come in, they'd 474 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: want aid or help, and some people had really serious 475 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,959 Speaker 1: and timely medical conditions and they weren't being taken care of. 476 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: And then Trump said, if you don't get the care 477 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: you need, you can go to any hospital you want 478 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: and the government will take care of it. That was 479 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: a big deal on top of everything else. Yeah, Trump 480 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: did a lot for our veterans for sure. 481 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 11: So being in after Trump has left and during that time, 482 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 11: Biden closed down the pipelines and then COVID hit. COVID 483 00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 11: was one of the hardest signs for military because one 484 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 11: we weren't allowed to go and leave. A lot of 485 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 11: us if you weren't within a certain mileage, you weren't 486 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 11: allowed to go and leave, so you weren't allowed to 487 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 11: see your family. So from the time that COVID started 488 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 11: to about almost two years, a lot of people didn't 489 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 11: get to go home. A lot of people didn't get 490 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 11: to see their family on holidays and everything. And on 491 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 11: top of that, gas prices went, which made it even 492 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 11: harder for anybody I wanted to go out and enjoy 493 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 11: the time with their friends on base or go out 494 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 11: and do anything. You couldn't because the gas prices are 495 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 11: so high and with the inflation that came with it. 496 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 11: It lowered, basically lowered our pay. When it came up 497 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 11: to Trump that gave us that percentage, it basically was 498 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 11: taken away. 499 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: So look, I mean, it's amazing that I was reading 500 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: all these year end articles about how great the economy 501 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: was and by the way, thanks for your call, thank 502 00:26:56,119 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: you for your service, my friend, and they're all talking about, well, 503 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: the stock market went up X number of dollars, which, 504 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: by the way, is good for a lot of people. 505 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: If you have a retirement account, it's connected to the 506 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 1: stock market. I don't like what I'm reading today about 507 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: the economy and the potential of you know, a really 508 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 1: significant you know change coming this year. I think that 509 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: is beyond possible. Oil prices, by the way of going 510 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: back up. But if you know, you just take a 511 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: look at some of the comments of some economists. Look, 512 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: one guy, for example, Harry Debt, is warning that everything 513 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: bubble will burst in the new year. That that's a 514 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: little scary for one person to make that kind of remark, 515 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 1: and others are saying the same thing. Look, I just 516 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: don't trust the stock market, nor do I use the 517 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: stock market as the barometer of how the economy is 518 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: doing because throughout Biden's presidency, you know, over sixty percent 519 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 1: of our fellow Americans have been living paycheck to paycheck, 520 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: and that to me says everything you need to know. 521 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: Every time you go shopping, you can see the difference. 522 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: Every time you fill up gas tank, you can feel 523 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: the difference. Okay, gas prices of late have come down, 524 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: but now with war raging in the Middle East, I 525 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if they go back up again. Somebody 526 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: certainly is telling the Biden administration to create more output, 527 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: which they are doing. But our demands have never been 528 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 1: higher and not keeping up with it, and we're still 529 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 1: importing energy from countries that hate us, which is never 530 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 1: a good idea for national security. And we should be 531 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: the most energy dominant country, the inherited energy independence that 532 00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:40,479 Speaker 1: only happened under Trump for the first time in seventy 533 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: five years. And the next step, logical step after that 534 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,719 Speaker 1: would be energy dominance, and we should be providing the 535 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: rest of the world with our energy, oil, gas, and 536 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: coal and anythings. It should be viewed as just temporary 537 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: and just political because we know what their new Green 538 00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: Deal agenda is. 539 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 3: All about, all right, quick, right back to our phones. 540 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine point one, Seawan our number if 541 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program.
