1 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,239 Speaker 1: Lib News says Ice picked up children from fields. Hey, 2 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: what were children doing in those fields? Also, government schools 3 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 1: are bracing for this semester's parents opt outs, which we're 4 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: all really appreciating. And Barbie has a new disease for 5 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: some reason. All that more coming up on this episode 6 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,479 Speaker 1: of Turning Point Tonight. My name is Joe Bob. Thanks 7 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: so much for tuning in. Together, we are charting the 8 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: course of America's cultural comeback. This is Turning Point Tonight. Now, 9 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: before we get to those stories in our fantastic panel, 10 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: we gotta get to this. New polling is out from 11 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: Pew Research that shows some really interesting ways that other 12 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: countries are thinking about the United States, most notably our 13 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: neighbors to the north and the south. Canadians and Mexicans 14 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: answered a Pew Research poll in a bizarre way. The 15 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: poll was seeking to find out of twenty five different countries, 16 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 1: who was their greatest ally and who was their greatest threat. 17 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: Now Canada, at least because we're talking about those two 18 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,479 Speaker 1: nations to their credits, said the majority of them said, well, 19 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: the US is the greatest ally. There were also half 20 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: of the country's polled said yeah, the US is is 21 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: their greatest ally. Now, I don't know why that wasn't 22 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 1: one hundred percent, because we're the biggest, the best, and 23 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna be the ones who come and save your 24 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: butt if anything goes wrong, for better or worse. That's 25 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: just the reality of it. I don't know why it's 26 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,199 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent, but at least it was half. 27 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: But the disturbing and very odd thing is also a 28 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: majority in both Mexico and Canada said that, well, the 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: United States is our greatest threat. First things, First, Mexicans 30 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: in Mexico. Over the last ten years and estimated two 31 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 1: hundred to two hundred fifty thousand Mexicans were killed by 32 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: the cartel. So maybe the greatest threat to Mexico is 33 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: Mexico and hey, syrup guzzlers up to the north in 34 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: America's hat. Article five of NATO says that we have 35 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: to defend you in case anybody attacks you, and considering 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: that we're not gonna attack you, maybe we also aren't 37 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,119 Speaker 1: the greatest threat. I don't know what these people are 38 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: thinking other. 39 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: Than Trump mean. 40 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: He send mean tweets and makes fun of us and 41 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: calls us the fifty first state, which by the way, 42 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: is still hilarious and we should still do it. But 43 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: the idea that these countries think that we are the 44 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: biggest threat to them is hilarious. Let's bring in our 45 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,639 Speaker 1: fantastic panel for the day, Steven Gardner's host of The 46 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: Stephen Gardner Show, and new time guest Liz beneath you. 47 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: I think I pronounced that right. Hopefully I did. Guys, 48 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. Really appreciate you taking the time. 49 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 3: Absolutely, thank you, Steven. 50 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: I want to start with you here. 51 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: This is ironic in so many ways. But where is 52 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: this coming from? Is it strictly the Orange man bad 53 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: syndrome that's affecting both Mexico and Canada. 54 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,839 Speaker 4: You know, I would have thought the greatest enemy would 55 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 4: be Justin Trudeau and the cartel. 56 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 3: So I'm there with you. 57 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 4: But you know, obviously half of the Canadians they see 58 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 4: Donald Trump as being a big issue instead of the 59 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 4: fact that he liberated you from Justin Trudeau. Of course, 60 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 4: America is still a great neighbor to Canada. 61 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: I think that they are overreacting. 62 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 4: We would come in and save their biscuits, just like 63 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 4: we are right now, like we do a lot of 64 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 4: business with Canada. If we were to cut that off, 65 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 4: it would be very bad. So maybe this is the issue. 66 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 4: Canadian people are so kind and polite, like if you 67 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 4: bump into them, they apologize. That's how nice they are. 68 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 4: Now imagine bumping into somebody from New York. They're just 69 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 4: like they're having Donald Trump shock syndrome. 70 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: You know, you bring up a fantastic point because people 71 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: use this to describe New York and California. They say, hey, 72 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: people in the Upper East Coast of the United States, 73 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: if you if you have a flat tire, they'll they'll 74 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: curse you out, but they'll help you change the tire. 75 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: In California they'll go, oh no, I'm so sorry, and 76 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: then they won't help you at all. So I'd rather 77 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: be harsh and nice, harsh and helpful, rather than nice 78 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: and completely useless. Liz, Mexico is like it's it's it's 79 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: not now, but a couple of years ago it ranked 80 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: second in the most dangerous countries on Earth, second only 81 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: to Syria. But yet the United States is their greatest threat. 82 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: So many, the majority of the country country believes what 83 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: is going on there, Oh well, that I'm trying. 84 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 5: To figure out, because if the United States is their 85 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 5: biggest threat. Then why do they keep trying to come here, yeah, away. 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 3: From my threat? 87 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,840 Speaker 5: Like I'm not gonna go run up to Michael Myers. 88 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 6: He's trying to murder me. 89 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 90 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:55,559 Speaker 1: I'm not entirely sure how that's that makes any sense 91 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: on any on any level whatsoever. Things that I also 92 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: don't know how to make sense of last week, and 93 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: I know this is not necessarily news of the day, 94 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: but we were in Tampa all week. We were talking 95 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: to some fantastic people at the Turning Point Student Action 96 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: Summit and didn't get to this story. But the ICE 97 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: agents that did a raid which was sanctioned by a 98 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: search warrant for a criminal search warrant on a marijuana 99 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: farm in Cameruo, California. A bunch of the news media 100 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: Stephen was talking about, well, there was children there and 101 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: how could they do that with children? Their ten youths, 102 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: one young is fourteen years old were wrapped up in 103 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: the ice raids, to which I and pretty much every 104 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: conservative commentator goes, why were their children working in the 105 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: fields of that kind of sounds like slave laborer, which 106 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: is not okay, Steve, Why did one they miss that? 107 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: And two there's so many other things going on with this. 108 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: If you have any other comments about this whole raid, 109 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: I would love to hear them. 110 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 4: You know one of my favorite rap songs by Vanilla 111 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 4: ICE's Ice Ice Baby. 112 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 3: I mean, why are babies? 113 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 4: Why our babies out on the farm picking marijuana. And 114 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 4: then you've got the mainstream media, the Democrats and Gavin 115 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 4: Gruesome saying that this is going to affect America's food safety, 116 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 4: that they are the largest producer of agriculture. These guys 117 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 4: aren't picking strawberries, they're not picking almonds for your almond milk. 118 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 4: This is marijuana. And this company, this company is known 119 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 4: for missing payroll regularly. So now you've got these immigrant children, 120 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 4: some of them don't even have parents, that they're probably 121 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: paying slave labor to. To me, this is just so 122 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 4: disgusting and the fact that they're trying to pin this 123 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 4: on the food safety of America. Last I checked, nobody 124 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 4: is eating marijuana to survive. 125 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 3: They're using it for a good time. 126 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: I was good to say. 127 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: If you didn't add that to survive there, I'd be like, ah, 128 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: I might push back. Not a good thing, but still 129 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: not entirely sure. The farmer also, by the way, that 130 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: owns the ranch, according to California Disclosure Reports, has donated 131 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars to the Gavin Newsom campaign in twenty eighteen. 132 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: No shock there, Liz. This I think highlights kind of 133 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: another big issue. 134 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 7: You know. 135 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: Libs are all about like, well, we got to protect 136 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: the illegal immigrants, why not protect the kids. If you remember, 137 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: the Biden administration just kind of lost three hundred and 138 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: twenty thousand illegal migrant children who are in the country. 139 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 2: The kind of lost track of them. 140 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: Turns out some of them are working in these farms, 141 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: which I can almost guarantee you are not abiding by 142 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: any of these state regulated laws regarding miners working. How 143 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: come it seems like they care more about illegals than 144 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: they care about the protection of illegals, and they care 145 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: about children. 146 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 5: They don't care about the protection of illegals. They care 147 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 5: about the protection of cheap labor. And here's the thing 148 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 5: with the children, they have nimble finger so it's easier 149 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 5: for them to get into the marijuana plants and stuff. 150 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 5: So I think they're all happy, especially the liberals in California. 151 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 8: They all need their weed. 152 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 5: They're all stressed out about everything, so that's why they 153 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 5: don't care. 154 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: I just yeah, I think it's a funny and ironic. 155 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: It's not funny. The whole situation is bad, but it's 156 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: just the irony is just so juicy, especially in the 157 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: state of California, and I think Governor Newsom is on 158 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: the wrong side of this politically. 159 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 2: Stephen, did you have another thought? 160 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, Joe, Bob. 161 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 4: I mean, these these liberals, the only way that they're 162 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 4: able to keep their Trump derangement syndrome under control is 163 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 4: to just have a little bit of marijuana. And they've 164 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 4: got to keep it affordable, you know, high inflation under Biden. 165 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 4: They've got to have that cheap weed. And so they've 166 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 4: got to have children with no parents. Again, this is disgusting. 167 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 4: I don't mean to make light of it, but the 168 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 4: fact that they're defending this is kind of like defending 169 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 4: that Brego Garcia guy who was trafficking children beating his wife, 170 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 4: and then they were pretending, oh, he's a great guy, Like, 171 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 4: can you just defend the right group of people? 172 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: No, Steven, I'm pretty sure he was just a father 173 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: in Maryland. He is the Maryland father, nothing more than that, 174 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: not a wife be of a human traffick and illegal 175 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: speaking of Libs doing just classic lib things. I recognize 176 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: that this is really only affecting a geographically small place. Obviously, 177 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 1: population wise, New York City is a huge city. But 178 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 1: former governor disgraced to slash resigned Governor Cuomo said that 179 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: he will be running for mayor as an independent against 180 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: Mam Danny. But there's a catch here that I think 181 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: is really funny and kind of interesting. He says that 182 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: by September, if there's not a clear winner, or whoever 183 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: the clear winner is, every other independent should drop out 184 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: of the race so that they can defeat the communist 185 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: Mam Danny over there in New York Stephen one, do 186 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: you think he will abide by his own rules? And 187 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: Eric Adams, the current mayor who's also running as an independent, 188 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: has basically said, yeah, Pound Sin, I'm not dropping out. 189 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 2: You think this play is gonna work. 190 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 4: I mean, he's already upset that this other guy came 191 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 4: in like he's gotten the name Cuomo right. Unfortunately, he 192 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 4: tarnished it by being a little bit handsy with some 193 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 4: of the women in his office, So that's on him. 194 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 4: But you know, asking people to drop out, I think 195 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 4: it's just his way of saying, I literally don't have 196 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 4: a chance of winning this unless I get a bunch 197 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 4: of other people's stuff. So once again, these Democrats, they 198 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 4: don't run on good policy. They run on getting votes 199 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 4: in really clever ways. 200 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, clever or conniving is probably yeah, how things are 201 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: done in that part of the country. Liz, do you 202 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 1: think anybody's going to follow these arbitrary rules set by 203 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,679 Speaker 1: the guy who is hoping that these rules give him 204 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 1: the boost he needs to not abide by them? 205 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 5: You know, I mean, this is a mayoral race in 206 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 5: New York City. This isn't like a fifth grade, you 207 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,440 Speaker 5: know election. Nobody has to do anything. 208 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 8: That Cuomo wants. 209 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 3: He did a terrible job. 210 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 5: He's going to do another terrible job, and why should 211 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 5: anyone listen to him. 212 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's one of those two where you like, hey, 213 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: we're all going to sign this pack. I also, you know, 214 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: this is just me especially it's easier to Monday morning 215 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: quarterback this one. But when people were saying we're going 216 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: to sign this pack that all the conservatives and then 217 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: Trump would go, I'm. 218 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: Not signing that. 219 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: It just kind of it is exactly how these things 220 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: always work, especially if you're not the front runner trying 221 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: to get these things started. Listens even will be back 222 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: right after the break to discuss parents are going to 223 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: be opting their kids out of certain lessons. The Supreme 224 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: Court said that is okay, and Barbie has a new 225 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: disease which doesn't really make any sense. 226 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: All that more coming up after the break. Don't go away. 227 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 2: We'll be right back after this. 228 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 9: Got to admire what you've been able to do, not 229 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 9: to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses. 230 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 8: At Turning Point USA.

That's what I think. 248 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: One of the it's kind of intangible, but one of 249 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: the best things about turning point events is you kind 250 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: of get to put a name to a face. Even 251 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: though you know the face of a person, you get 252 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: to meet him in person.

And that's all you get, Manica. Big stuff, 256 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: big stuff, as there always is. President Trump is meeting 257 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: with the NATO Secretary General there, who previously made news 258 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: for calling him daddy now jokingly but also was serious 259 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: in the fact that, like, hey, you know, credit where 260 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: credits due.

So now 268 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,679 Speaker 7: this is the place rushing in a very interesting position 269 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 7: where if it doesn't in the war, I guess you 270 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 7: can be expecting crazy sanctions. Very short conversation, kind of 271 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 7: a short meeting this afternoon, and the President also holding 272 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 7: a Faith Office luncheon as well.

He's kind of surprised 317 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 7: that people are still talking about it. But I do 318 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 7: still kind of hear along pebble Beach reporting about the 319 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 7: Epstein client list and the latest developments regarding that.

They use the term public schools, but I 334 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: use the term government schools because we want to make 335 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: sure that people know, Hey, the government does things and 336 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 1: it's usually bad. Government schools are bracing for the impact 337 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 1: of parents opting out their kids from certain lessons. Now, 338 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: we've all remembered the Supreme Court case that said, hey, yeah, 339 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: you can do this if there is religious exception, especially 340 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: regarding the lgbt Q two plus two for all of 341 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 1: the letters lesson plans, you can say, hey, I'm gonna 342 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: pull my kid out of that class. 343 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 2: They said that the schools have. 344 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: To tell the parents, hey, we're doing this, and the 345 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: parents have the opportunity to go all right, well I'm out. 346 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: Let's bring it back our panel. 347 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: Stephen and Liz here, Stephen, this is this is really 348 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: interesting because, well, let me read you some of the 349 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: comments from people who hate this sort of thing, that think, 350 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is terrible that parents are going 351 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: to be able to pull their kids out of the class. 352 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 1: One of the attorneys that is opposed to this said this, 353 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: and this could lead to more educators self censoring shelby 354 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: books and lessons and pretending some already marginalized students sorry, 355 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: preventing the marginalized students from being seen and acknowledged, to 356 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: which I say, great, that sounds good. That the teachers 357 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: are gonna self censor and not put the wacky doodle 358 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: stuff in front of elementary school's eyes. 359 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 2: That sounds fantastic. What do you think the outcome of 360 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,479 Speaker 2: this is going to be, Stephen? 361 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 1: Will we just start seeing more parents opt out of schools, 362 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: or will the pushback be so great that more parents 363 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: should say, all right, I'm out of the whole government 364 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 1: school thing as a whole. 365 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 4: I think most people depend on the government school system. 366 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 4: So I think more parents are just going to become 367 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,919 Speaker 4: vocal about this, and they're going to be pushing to 368 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 4: educate their own children when it comes to sexuality, when 369 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 4: it comes to gender, when it comes to adult themes. 370 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 4: I mean, remember when the Democrats were throwing a giant 371 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 4: fit over not being able to have openly adult conversations 372 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 4: with kindergarteners like come on like their brains are not 373 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 4: fully formed. Why is a kindergartener being told what a 374 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 4: mom and dad or a dad and a dad and 375 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 4: a mom and a mom are doing behind closed doors. 376 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 3: It doesn't make any sense. So I think that this 377 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 3: is great. 378 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 4: I mean, I remember, like the news coverage that parents 379 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 4: would go in and read some of the trashy books 380 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 4: and they would say, you can't say that at a 381 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 4: school board meeting. And they say, well, then why is 382 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 4: my child allowed to read it in the privacy of 383 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 4: your library? 384 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 3: Get it out or I'm gonna get my kid out. 385 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 1: That sounds like Pastor John Amachuku Turning Point contributor who's 386 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: going at those meetings and just say, hey, look, I'm 387 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: just reading you what is on the book in your 388 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: second grade classroom. 389 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 2: You can't tell me to stop. Liz. 390 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: You know, part of the argument here is that, okay, 391 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: so where do you draw the line? And this is 392 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: where this is where I think ultimately parents, you know, 393 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: over the course of time, and I don't like that 394 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: this is going to be the case, but I think 395 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: parents will just start saying, hey, I got to pull 396 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: my kids out of school, and I would hope that's 397 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 1: the case. And I understand this financial restrictions that come 398 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: with that sort of thing, But the argument would be, well, okay, 399 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: well what counts as a religious belief? If you say, hey, 400 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: my child doesn't believe in math, which some of your 401 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: more woke people do, they get to be exempt from 402 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 1: this class and you have to give them an a. 403 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: How do you think this is going to. 404 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: Work out in a whole as a whole, especially going 405 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: forward when people start to exploit the system. 406 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 5: I mean, I think there's a fairer lion here. I 407 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 5: know that a lot of liberals say that math is 408 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 5: now racist, but still, you know, teach kids math, but 409 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 5: when it comes to teaching kids about sexuality, about gender 410 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 5: studies at fifth or sixth grade, or not fifth or 411 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 5: sixth grade when they're five or six years old, then 412 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 5: there's a boundary there. 413 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 6: A lot of people that I know, a lot of. 414 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,679 Speaker 5: Parents that I know, have chosen to opt out of 415 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 5: sending their kids to normal public schools, and they've done 416 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 5: a lot of small pod learning for multiple reasons. One 417 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 5: they don't want their kids learning anything whoe for weird. 418 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 5: And the other reason is a lot of them don't 419 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 5: want their kids to be forced to take all of 420 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 5: these vaccines. 421 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 6: So I think there's gonna. 422 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 5: Be a lot more homeschooling, small pod learning and where 423 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 5: parents do have. 424 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 6: A bit more control. 425 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 426 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 1: I hope to see, hope, hope that this works out 427 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 1: in everyone's best interest, and maybe the government schools just say, hey, yeah, 428 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 1: maybe let's just lay off of this, or else we're 429 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,199 Speaker 1: gonna have some bad outcomes. Uh, this is just a 430 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: funny story. There's no real political relevance here. It's more 431 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: of a cultural thing. 432 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 6: Uh. 433 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: Stephen Mattel has released a new Barbie, but now this 434 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: Barbie has type one diabetes. I understand what they're trying 435 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: to do. They're trying to play to the crowd that says, well, 436 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 1: what about the kids with you know, type one diabetes. However, 437 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: I don't understand the point of telling people that a 438 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: plastic doll has a disease that you can't see. Oh, 439 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:56,120 Speaker 1: this doll has a pulmonarily enlarged artery, this doll has 440 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: crippling depressions. 441 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 2: It's still a doll. It doesn't age the physical appearance 442 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 2: at all. 443 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: Uh, what's going on here at Mattel with their Barbie 444 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 1: new release? 445 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 4: I mean the Kendall, you know, just has a flat patch. 446 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 4: It doesn't even have the male genitilia. So I guess 447 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 4: now they're saying, Okay, we can't, we can't go down 448 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 4: that route, so we can at least put a port. Now, 449 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: Type one diabetes, that's different. I get it, they have it. 450 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 4: There's not much you can do. Type two diabetes. Let's 451 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 4: not normalize that, let's not make that common. But the 452 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 4: one that I was more concerned about Joe Bob is the. 453 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 3: Doctor Fauci Barbie. 454 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 4: Like, come on, why are you putting this guy on 455 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 4: a pedestal. Millions and millions of people died and you're 456 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 4: trying to make him into a hero by putting him on. 457 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 3: A pedestal next to Barbie. No way, I'm out. 458 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 2: I have not seen the Doctor Fauci Barbie, but that 459 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 2: is insane. 460 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: And to your point, yeah, type one diabetes, you know, 461 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: it's kind of born with it. And I'm totally fair 462 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: if you want to sell the like accessory part, really fine, 463 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: but a whole new Barbie. It just doesn't make any 464 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: sense to me why they would do that. Oh, I'm 465 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: gonna stop myself from making another unfortunate joke that may 466 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: get me in trouble but Liz, your thoughts on the 467 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 1: diabetic barbie. 468 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 5: I'm just hoping that wanted to make like a seed 469 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 5: oil free barbie. Maybe, but I think we're probably gonna 470 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 5: get like HIV barbie before we get seed oil free barbie. Unfortunately. 471 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I uh, I'm not too optimistic about that, but 472 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: I do think that would be funny. Actually, you know what, 473 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: who's stopping us from going into the stores and not 474 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: doing anything specifically but picking up a bar and saying, 475 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: this is a seed oil free barbie and this is 476 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: a uh doesn't use lotion and instead use beef tallow 477 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 1: barbie because it doesn't It doesn't make any Yeah, it 478 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 1: doesn't make any difference.

I was like before I 501 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 6: even got sober, I was just trying to find one 502 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 6: person that I could say, like I think I might 503 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 6: have a problem and I'm not sure what to do. 504 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 6: But I was so so so embarrassed, Like I couldn't 505 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 6: tell anyone because I thought people are going to think 506 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 6: I'm a bad mom, People are going to judge my faith, 507 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 6: people are going to think, you know, they don't want 508 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 6: their kids around me. You know, I was just blowing 509 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 6: it up into this massive, big deal, so afraid to 510 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 6: tell anyone, and so I would just I would sort 511 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 6: of reach out to people if I saw someone talking 512 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 6: about it, might send a DM or something. But ultimately, 513 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 6: at the beginning of the pandemic, I finally joined a 514 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 6: group called the Luckiest Club and that is like an 515 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 6: online support group similar to AA. It's not AA, though, 516 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 6: and they started having meetings four to five times a day, 517 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 6: and four to. 518 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 11: Five times a day because it was the pandemic. 519 00:25:57,880 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 6: It was pandemic, but they still have them. They still 520 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 6: have them four to five times a day because they 521 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 6: want it to be accessible to anyone. And they have 522 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 6: themed meetings. 523 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 11: Okay, so you can pick one of the five. 524 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, you can go to all. Some people do like 525 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 6: in the beginning of their sobriety where they're just like 526 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 6: I'm just hanging on by thread. They're like, come to 527 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 6: all the meetings. 528 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 11: And so is this just all women? 529 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 6: No, it's men and women. Okay, I would say there's 530 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 6: definitely more women. It was started by a woman named 531 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 6: Laura McCowan who is sort of a leader in the 532 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 6: space and sort of like the non traditional sobriety space 533 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 6: that's not AA. And there's a lot more places like 534 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 6: that now than there used to be back when I 535 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 6: first started thinking about this, even gosh, ten twelve years ago, 536 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 6: there was almost nothing Like I would look online and 537 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 6: be like, well, I can't go to an AA meeting. 538 00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 6: That's insane. I was terrified. I'm like, I can go 539 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 6: to a building and walk into a room. There was 540 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 6: no way I was going to do that. And that's 541 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 6: why I think these online meetings where you can you 542 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 6: can hop on the zoom, you don't have to turn 543 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 6: your camera on, you don't have to talk, and you 544 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 6: can just sort of like be there. And for me 545 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 6: that was huge because I all of a sudden realized, oh, 546 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 6: I'm actually not that abnormal, and there's people just like 547 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 6: me in this room, and you don't have to, you know, 548 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 6: lose custody of your children and get a DUI and 549 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 6: be thrown in jail. To be like, I don't want 550 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 6: to do this anymore with my life. Alcohol is affecting 551 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 6: me in a negative way, and I have a choice 552 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 6: on whether or not I want that anymore. 553 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 11: How in the world did you bring this up with 554 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 11: your church, because to me, that would be the most 555 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 11: terrifying of all. 556 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,439 Speaker 6: It was definitely God working. So my pastor had come 557 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 6: to me. I went to a small church at the time, 558 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 6: and they said, we're doing this series about the way 559 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 6: God has moving in our life. I don't remember specifically 560 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 6: what they said, but they said, we're wondering if you 561 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,199 Speaker 6: can talk about, you know, something God has saide in 562 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 6: your life. And I had been sober for like five months, 563 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 6: four months at the time, and I just thought, oh no, yeah, 564 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 6: I felt it. I felt you know, I felt like 565 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 6: God was pushing me, say you should talk about this, 566 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 6: and so I said, okay, I got to talk to 567 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,719 Speaker 6: you guys about something. I kind of like just dumped 568 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 6: the whole story on the phone. I was like sobbing. 569 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 6: I had never talked about it openly and I couldn't 570 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 6: talk talk about it without crying at the time. And 571 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 6: They're like, this is amazing, we want you to share, 572 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 6: and so it's like okay. So ultimately I did go 573 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 6: in front of my church and share my story through 574 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 6: lots of tears. I still was. It was so the 575 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 6: beginning of so raw, like I couldn't talk about it 576 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 6: because I I just it was the first time I 577 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,360 Speaker 6: had really expressed, you know, And so I did it 578 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 6: and it was amazing. I had people coming up to 579 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 6: me after church, you know, confessing not just alcohol, but 580 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 6: like multiple different kinds of addictions and issues, And was 581 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 6: that overwhelming? It was because you're just like, oh, I 582 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 6: don't know how to like you want to help everyone, 583 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 6: And sometimes I feel that online as well, because I 584 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 6: want to help everyone, but you can't be the best 585 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 6: friend to everyone, you know what I mean. But if 586 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 6: somebody is reaching out to me, like, I'm never not 587 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 6: going to reach out back. And so anyway, and you know, 588 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 6: I made friends with a woman who sort of secretly 589 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 6: came to me wanted to talk with me about her problem. 590 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 6: We had this great conversation and we're still friends, we're 591 00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 6: still in touch. And then the pandemic happened and I 592 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 6: relapsed started drinking again, and I thought, I can oh 593 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 6: my nobody at church can ever know this. I can 594 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 6: never show my face again. But now looking back, you know, 595 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 6: you never want to say you're glad you relapsed. But 596 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 6: at the same time, it really was an important lesson 597 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 6: for me and something that I can share with others, 598 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 6: like it's okay to mess up and relapse sometimes is 599 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 6: part of it, part of the journey, but that's okay, 600 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 6: and you can keep going. And I had that experience, 601 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 6: and I'm able to speak to that now. I know 602 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 6: what it's like and it doesn't mean that you failed. 603 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 6: It just means that you're imperfect. 604 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 11: What were some of the most surprising stories you heard 605 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 11: from other Christian moms struggling with alcohol. 606 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 6: I think what's interesting is that so many people are 607 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 6: just so secretive and don't know. I got emails from 608 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 6: people that are like, I'm a pastor's wife and I'm 609 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 6: afraid of my husband is going to lose his job, 610 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 6: or I'm going to lose my place in ministry, or 611 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 6: I get messages that are like, you know, ever since 612 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 6: my son was born, I've been struggling and I feel 613 00:29:59,920 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 6: like I just I don't know how to get out 614 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 6: of this, and so I don't know that any of 615 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 6: it was super surprising, but it was just like people 616 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 6: felt a relief or a weightlifted that they had somebody 617 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 6: that got it. And specifically on the faith side, I 618 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 6: think makes a difference because for me, like in the 619 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 6: Luckiest Club, the support program I mentioned that is not 620 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 6: faith based, and I really felt a lot of disconnection 621 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 6: between myself and people there. In the meetings, they were great, 622 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 6: they were super helpful, for me and I would never 623 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 6: have not done them. But at the same time, I 624 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 6: think when a Christian woman hears me speak, they're like, okay, 625 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 6: Like she's gonna get this on a different level than 626 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 6: anyone else, because as Christians, like our faith is number one, 627 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 6: Like we can't walk forward without that being a huge 628 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 6: component of it. And so I think for some of 629 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 6: the people that reach out to me, that was really 630 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 6: a relief to them. 631 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 11: How did your relationships with your church, your kids, your 632 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 11: spouse kind of shift as you moved towards sobriety friends 633 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 11: did these friends? 634 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 6: I didn't lose friends at first. I wasn't really telling 635 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 6: people a whole lot, but as a mom of young kids, 636 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 6: I wasn't going out a lot anyway with friends. Telling 637 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 6: my small group at church was huge for me, very scary. 638 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 6: I was terrified to tell them. I was terrified to 639 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 6: ask for prayer. But I have written about before how 640 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 6: that was a huge turning point for me because number one, 641 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 6: they of course reacted with complete grace and love, and 642 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 6: you know, they said thank you for telling us, and 643 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 6: we're going to pray for you, And there was no pressure. 644 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 6: It was just a beautiful way to sort of open 645 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 6: it up and get it out of the darkness, which 646 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 6: is so important. And we've all heard this before, like 647 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 6: shame breeds in the darkness, but when you bring it 648 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 6: out to the light, it cannot grow. And that is 649 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 6: exactly the experience I had. As soon as I started 650 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 6: talking about it, it couldn't grow anymore. So that was huge. 651 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 6: With my husband, he and I drank a lot together 652 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 6: in the beginning of our relationship, and he is not 653 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 6: a great drinker. He has, like I said, a history 654 00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 6: of addiction in his past, and so he doesn't he's 655 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,959 Speaker 6: not sober, but like he barely ever drinks now, and 656 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 6: so when we would have arguments and fights and any 657 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 6: kind of issue that would arise because we were drinking, 658 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 6: all of that has completely disappeared. 659 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: We don't have that. 660 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 6: Anymore, There is no problem. And so I think that 661 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 6: was a huge thing for me too, because I didn't 662 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 6: want my kids to see that either because of alcohol. 663 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 6: And then with my kids, not only do I now 664 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 6: have a reason to say, like, yeah, don't drink. You know, 665 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 6: you're not supposed to drink two or twenty one for 666 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 6: like no reason I can say to them, you know, 667 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,959 Speaker 6: we have this history of addiction in our family, and 668 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 6: that's why I don't drink, and that's why your dad 669 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 6: doesn't drink, aside from the occasional like beer at Christmas 670 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 6: or whatever. And they can look at their grandmother, who 671 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 6: they actually never met because they were strange because of 672 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 6: her alcoholism and drug issues. We tell them about the 673 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 6: way that my husband grew up, and they know that 674 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 6: there's something dangerous about alcohol for us. I said specifically 675 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 6: for you guys, because it may affect you in a 676 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 6: way that it doesn't affect other people. And we just 677 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 6: have to be really careful. And I think when you 678 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 6: approach the topic like that with kids rather than it 679 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 6: just like you're not supposed to do that. I read 680 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 6: this sumwhere and I can't point to the study at 681 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 6: the moment, but when when kids have that really deeper, 682 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 6: more meaningful reason, they are much more likely to not 683 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 6: abuse it or wait until later. Because if you wait 684 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 6: until you're twenty five, I mean, I don't know twenty 685 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 6: five is late, but any people who wait till they're 686 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 6: twenty five to try drugs or alcohol at all or 687 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 6: twenty one, even the rates of addiction go down, like 688 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 6: totally going down a mountain because the younger you do it, 689 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 6: the more likely it is that you are going to 690 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 6: potentially have an addiction simply because your brain is still 691 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 6: forming and you're training it to be addicted. Essentially, that 692 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 6: makes sense. 693 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: That. 694 00:33:58,400 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 8: Got it. 695 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 9: Admire what you've been able to do, not to weaponize, 696 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 9: but to organize on these college campuses. 697 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 8: At Turning Point USA.

There was a little bit of confusion on 722 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 1: some commentary around boomers, specifically with our guests, and there 723 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: was I think a moment in the beginning where we 724 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: specified who we were talking about. Some of the more 725 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: liberal boomers who show up to these no King protests. 726 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: Everybody's over the age of sixty and summer and wheelchairs 727 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: and walkers. That's who we were making fun of, not 728 00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: the overall boomer generation. 729 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 2: It was specifically the crazy lib. 730 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: Boomers that just have so much trumped arrangements syndrome they 731 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: have to go in the streets and shriek at the 732 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: top of their lung. So and guss there was any confusion. 733 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: We did get a couple of emails for that that's 734 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: what we were talking about, and if you missed the 735 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: preface to that, I could totally see how that was 736 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: a little bit confusing.

So yesterday, 741 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: President Trump goes to the World Cup Club Final at 742 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium in New York, where there were two soccer 743 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 1: teams playing. I had no idea what was going on 744 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 1: at all. I saw a New York Post update that 745 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 1: said Trump and Malania relive rearrive at MetLife to watch 746 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 1: the soccer match and what I don't even I don't 747 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: even know what that is. But I did a little 748 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 1: bit of viewing of it, and it was a really 749 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: cool event. The crowd erupted when President Trump came in, 750 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,239 Speaker 1: and he was there when the representing the trophies ceremony, 751 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: and that is where this clip is from. President Trump 752 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: is there at the handing off of the ceremony and 753 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: then whoever is the handler up there says hey, okay, 754 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: so we'll have you step off this way because they 755 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: do their whole thing and they cheer, and President Trump 756 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: just didn't leave.

But it was a pleasant surprise, 823 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 1: because I do there is a part of me that 824 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: when you watch those videos of those people just ranting 825 00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,759 Speaker 1: about insane things that you're like, how are you a 826 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 1: real person that actually believes this?

It's great for people 828 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 1: to see that sort of thing because it really exists. 829 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: But also it hurts. 830 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 2: Inside a little bit because you're like, dang it. 831 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 1: These people live amongst us and and vote and drive cars, 832 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,919 Speaker 1: and I don't feel safe around them. But it also 833 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: is nice to see when some of the other people 834 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,879 Speaker 1: are making fun of it.

And for those of you 863 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,319 Speaker 8: that are visiting that are not students, we give the 864 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 8: best seats to students for a reason, because. 865 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 3: These students every day. 866 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 8: Are on the front lines being smared, being slandered, being canceled, 867 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 8: being kicked out of classes, kicked out of fraternities, kicked 868 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 8: out of sororities. These are the students that worked so 869 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 8: hard to register voters this last election. These are the 870 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 8: students that start these chapters. They are the vanguard for 871 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 8: saving this country. Thirteen years ago when I first started 872 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,719 Speaker 8: turning point USA and this journey began. If you would 873 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 8: have told me thirteen years later that we would have 874 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:25,879 Speaker 8: someone running for the presidency as a Republican winning the 875 00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 8: youth vote in major states, I would say, how would 876 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 8: that be possible? Thirteen years ago we started the journey, 877 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:35,880 Speaker 8: and it was chapter by chapter, student by student, person 878 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:39,120 Speaker 8: by person, prove me wrong by prove me wrong, liberal 879 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 8: by liberal, proving one wrong at a time, and billions 880 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 8: and billions of years later. What happened in November was 881 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 8: a shot heard around the world. You see, all Kamala 882 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 8: Harris needed to do was get younger people to vote 883 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 8: at the same margins that Joe Biden got them to 884 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 8: vote back in twenty twenty. Did you know that baby 885 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,399 Speaker 8: boomers moved three points more Democrat back in November, Ah, 886 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,919 Speaker 8: But younger voters moved twenty two points to the right 887 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 8: in November. The youth delivered the White House to Donald Trump. 888 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 8: The next generation rose up in record numbers, and I 889 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 8: started to see it at the prove me wrongs across America. 890 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 8: We would just start with a couple hundred students and 891 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 8: all of a sudden, like a thousand students would come, 892 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,280 Speaker 8: and all of a sudden, they'd be wearing red hats 893 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:30,879 Speaker 8: as far as the eye could see. I said, there's 894 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 8: something profound happening in this country. There's something that is deep, 895 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,799 Speaker 8: that is larger than what the media is covering. And 896 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 8: we turned that red maga hat from a symbol that 897 00:44:42,560 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 8: everybody was afraid to wear back in twenty sixteen, we're 898 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 8: now in twenty twenty four. We turned that into a 899 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,240 Speaker 8: symbol of hope, into a symbol of optimism, of patriotism 900 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 8: and taking back our country. Back in November, when we 901 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:04,280 Speaker 8: rose up, voters saw President Trump as a lifeline. President 902 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 8: Donald Trump represented for them a way to try to 903 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,319 Speaker 8: get everybody's attention that things were not all right for 904 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 8: this generation. You see, I spend a lot of time 905 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 8: talking the next generation. We just did an entire prove 906 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:17,919 Speaker 8: me wrong with many of you out in the hall. 907 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 8: I did over one hundred hours of campus debates this 908 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 8: last semester, two hundred hours in one year, over sixty 909 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 8: five campuses that I visit, and a through line is repeated, 910 00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:30,399 Speaker 8: whether they're Republican or Democrat, or. 911 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 3: Conservative or liberal. 912 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 8: There is an angst, there's an uneasiness, there is a worry, 913 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,240 Speaker 8: there is a concern, and they say in no uncertain terms, Charlie, 914 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 8: I'm trying to get my leader's attention. I can't afford 915 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 8: a home, I can't afford basic necessities. 916 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 3: If I ask. 917 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 8: A girl out on a date and I get one 918 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 8: word wrong, she could report me for sexual harassment. I 919 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 8: am surrounded by this political correctness. Or if I don't 920 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,520 Speaker 8: get the pronouns correct of the transactivists next to me 921 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,320 Speaker 8: in class, it could be the end of my career. 922 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,840 Speaker 8: My town, my city is flooded by illegal aliens. 923 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:08,760 Speaker 3: Charlie. 924 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:12,800 Speaker 8: When will my leaders start fighting for me and my generation? 925 00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:15,800 Speaker 8: I hear every single day from you and this audience, 926 00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 8: the students, Charlie. Why is it that we spend hundreds 927 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:22,879 Speaker 8: of billions of dollars on wars abroad, but our own 928 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,319 Speaker 8: generation has to go endlessly in debt to pay our 929 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 8: medical bills and suffer under credit card debt. Why is 930 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 8: it that are young. Why you, the next generation, have 931 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 8: to compete to buy a home against a Chinese oligarch. 932 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 8: Let me be very clear, no foreign national should be 933 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:44,879 Speaker 8: allowed to own single family homes until this generation can 934 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:50,759 Speaker 8: have the same homes that their parents have. And this 935 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,359 Speaker 8: angst and this unease built up and built up, and 936 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 8: it culminated in the election of Donald Trump. The youth 937 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:02,239 Speaker 8: delivered the White House for President Trump. And understand that 938 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:06,800 Speaker 8: now six seven months later, we've inherited in disordered economy 939 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:11,360 Speaker 8: from Joe Biden. If we do not deliver on economic promises, 940 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 8: especially for the next generation, if we do not make 941 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 8: you owners of this economy, not just renters of this economy, 942 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 8: then you're going to see a lot more Zo Ron, 943 00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:25,840 Speaker 8: Mam Dunnies.
