As always, thank you for spending time 15 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:49,639 Speaker 1: with us here in Real America's Voice. We appreciate it. 16 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 1: Topping these oh brotherident. Trump has given Russia and ultimatum 17 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: to come to a peace deal with Ukraine by August 18 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: eighth or face steep tariffs and saying that's a week 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: from Friday. I'm much short time for him that his 20 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: original fifty day deadline he sent back in July. 21 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: More on that coming up. 22 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: Also, Conservatives has spent years fighting Joe Biden's illegal student 23 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: loan bailout scheme. Though progress has been made, federal law 24 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: continues to allow part of this scheme, with the Public 25 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: Service Loan Forgiveness program to continue to all about that today. 26 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 2: Then later, a pair of. 27 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: Janitors at Columbia University have settled a case for the 28 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: Ivy League school after being held hostage by anti Israel 29 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: protesters and last year's riots on campus. About time we 30 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: got some justice against the anti Semites. All those details 31 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: and more coming up, but first we start here today. 32 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: It is time to get lean and mean like a 33 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 1: fighting machine. The Trump administration is coming back on regulations 34 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: like we have never seen before. 35 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 2: It's a very very good thing. 36 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: By the way, In a historic move, the EPA has 37 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: introduced a proposal it would roll back the Obama era 38 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: Endangerment Finding. 39 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: The Engagement Finding. 40 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: You see, the two thousand and nine so called finding 41 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: has been the basis for most of the climate change 42 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: hysteria and regularation. After the EPA decided that pollutants from 43 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: burning fossil fuels harms the environment and you and I. 44 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: The carbon dioxide and methane are going to be the 45 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 2: end of us. That was the claim of the finding. 46 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 1: The White House Office of Management and Budget is now 47 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: looking to permanently reverse that finding, which would significantly hamper 48 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: the EPA's ability to police so called climate change. 49 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: But it would muzzle much of the hysteria. Thank god. 50 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: Carbon dioxide has been around for as long as Earth 51 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: has been here, and it's a natural gas that helps 52 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: our plants grow, and any increases in CO two can 53 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: largely be attributed to natural cycles and the planet. Oh 54 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: and it accounts for four tenths of a percent, that's right, 55 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: four tens of percent of the entire atmosphere. That they 56 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: want us to eliminate this and sacrifice everything on the 57 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: green altar. The climate crazies have long dramatized the presence 58 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: of CO two as being much worse than it actually 59 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: is to push for restrictions that are costly and unnecessary 60 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: to say the least. Overturning this kind of finding would 61 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: out last Trump administration be huge. It would limit future 62 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: authoritarian administrations from squeezing our economy into oblivion with regulation 63 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 1: after regulation of what really is plant food. 64 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: We're seeing the. 65 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: Dawn of a new era with the EPA administrator Lee Zelden, 66 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: who says, it's just common sense to reverse this kind 67 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: of ruling, and it's what the American people want. 68 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 2: Listen to what he said. One of the. 69 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: Biggest differences between conservatives and liberals, the right and the left, 70 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 4: Republicans and Democrats on this because we all care about 71 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 4: protecting the environment. On the left, they say that in 72 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 4: order to protect the environment, we have to put all 73 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 4: these regulations in that will strangulate out of existence entire 74 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 4: segments of our energy sectors and other aspects of our economy. 75 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 4: On the right, conservatives believe that we can both protect 76 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 4: the environment and grow the economy. It's not a conservative choice. 77 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 4: We are choosing to do both, and on top of it, 78 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 4: that's what the American public wants. So when you get 79 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 4: elected into government or you're here serving in the president's 80 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 4: cabinet and running one of these agencies, why are we 81 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 4: here because the American public made a choice last November 82 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 4: to send Donald Trump to back to the White House 83 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 4: to be the president of the United States. When they 84 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 4: were exercising that voice, they were saying that they want 85 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 4: agencies to apply common sense. They want agencies to be 86 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 4: cognizant of economic pain. That if you run an agency 87 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 4: like the EPA, where the core mission is protecting human 88 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 4: health in the environment. You should do so in a 89 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 4: way that can allow them to afford to heat their 90 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 4: home and have prescription get the prescription drugs they need, 91 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 4: and be able to put the groceries that they need 92 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 4: to inside of their fridge. They should be able to 93 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 4: afford to purchase a car. They should have a job. 94 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: And it's a big difference. 95 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 2: Between the right and left now, it is a big difference. 96 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: He's right about all of that. 97 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: You can care about the environment, we all do, but 98 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice the economy in 99 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: the business business sector on the environmental altar of green 100 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: new dealing. If the courts don't step in and mess 101 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: this up, as they've been prone to do too often, 102 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: this move is projected to save Americans a trillion dollars 103 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: or more. That's how devastating this endangement finding has been 104 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,719 Speaker 1: to this country. 105 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 2: That one agency, but just. 106 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: One move, can accomplish more deep regulation than entire presidencies 107 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,679 Speaker 1: have ever done in American history is remarkable. Thank god, 108 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: Zelden has said that this doesn't mean we have to 109 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: stop innovation in the energy sector. 110 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 2: That's a good thing. It can continue. 111 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: But what the left was doing with these trillions of 112 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: dollars had nothing to do with innovation. 113 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 2: It was straight up criminal. Here's more. 114 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 4: I'll tell you one other big difference between the right 115 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 4: and left that I've noticed since coming in. I've heard 116 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 4: his term environmental justice. 117 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 2: And the best. 118 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 4: Definition that somebody can give in favor of it that 119 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 4: you would get a lot of support, even conservatives would say, Okay, 120 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 4: I agree with that definition is you would say that 121 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 4: there are that our communities in America that had been 122 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 4: left behind that need help dealing with remediating environmental issues. Okay, 123 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 4: we all agree with that definition. So what are you 124 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 4: going to do about it? 125 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 2: Now? 126 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 4: On the left, in the name of environmental justice, they 127 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 4: then will get tens of billions of dollars appropriated that 128 00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 4: instead of spending the money directly on remediating environmental issues, 129 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:23,280 Speaker 4: they want to give it to left wing activistngos. They 130 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 4: want to pay off former Obama and Biden officials and 131 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 4: Democratic donors and give it through pass throughs. We have 132 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 4: some examples of grants where the grant will go through 133 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 4: four pastors and each of the pass through passors will 134 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 4: take fifteen to twenty five percent for administering. Think how 135 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,080 Speaker 4: much a dollar gets diluted in order to get it 136 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:45,720 Speaker 4: to the recipient, and would say, well, why don't you 137 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 4: just put it right to the recipient? Or if you 138 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 4: have if you're sending it to a state and a 139 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: state is going to give it to the recipient, then 140 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 4: you have in theory one pastor or administrator so that 141 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 4: the federal government can advance cooperative federalism. And we're not 142 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 4: doing everything ourselves. 143 00:06:59,440 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: Here's different. 144 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 4: It's on the right. Not only do we disagree with 145 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 4: the idea of giving all of this money to left 146 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 4: wing activist NGOs, we don't advocate for taking the money 147 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 4: and giving it to right wing activist NGOs. We say 148 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 4: that if a dollar is going to be spent in 149 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 4: the name of remediating an environmental concern in some community 150 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 4: that needs help, the dollars should get spent on directly 151 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 4: remediating the environmental issue. We don't want to take the 152 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 4: money from a left wing NGO and give it to 153 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 4: a right wing NGO. It should go directly towards the purpose, 154 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 4: or the money should just get saved for the taxpayer. 155 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: Save for the taxpayer. What a remarkable idea. 156 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: There were tens of billions of dollars going toward green 157 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: slash funds that just got divvied up among Biden Harris 158 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: associates and Democrat donors of course, and here's a favor 159 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: from you, and here's a favor for you, and here's 160 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: all something for you too. 161 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 2: Don't let the left. 162 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: Convince you that they're the only ones who care about 163 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 1: this planet. They just care about lining their pockets at 164 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: you're expense with your money, because that's what has been 165 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: happening for a long time. Just ask the people in Flint, Michigan, 166 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: Raach Palestine, Ohio. They'll tell you that the government is 167 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: not nearly as helpful as they claim it is. Why, 168 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: because our tax dollars were getting siphoned off to God 169 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: only knows where. Zelda did detail a specific example of 170 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,239 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about here. 171 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: Listen, I'll give you example. 172 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 5: On the other end of this, there was one CEO 173 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 5: who was serving on the White House Environmental Justice Council 174 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 5: for the Biden administration. While she was serving on this council, 175 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 5: she was CEO of an organization that applied for and 176 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 5: received twenty million dollars. So some people were able to 177 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,079 Speaker 5: with the right connections beyond the receiving end of billions 178 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 5: of dollars, Others on the other end of this getting 179 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 5: tens of millions of dollars and the federal government not 180 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 5: having oversight. And I just mentioned the account control agreements 181 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 5: that were entered into an EPA and these prime recipients. 182 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 5: They were amending the account control agreements right up to 183 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 5: the inauguration. They were amended account control agreements. We found 184 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 5: January thirteenth, So they. 185 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 6: Were scrambling before you guys got in there, and they tires. 186 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: They amended it. 187 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 5: So yeah, they amended these account control agreements to reduce 188 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 5: EPA oversight and to make it easier for them to 189 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 5: pass through the money without getting caught. 190 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 2: Always without getting caught. 191 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: You see, it's another day in another shady Biden administration, 192 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: wheeling and dealing behind the curtain. 193 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: Of course, I can't say I'm shocked. 194 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm just glad that the Trump administration is methodically undoing 195 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: as much damage as they possibly can. Deregulation there's going 196 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: to be the thing that puts this country back on track. 197 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: And if you think the mountain of red tape is 198 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 1: just too far gone at this point, for any one 199 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 1: administration to solve the issue. I've got some news for you. 200 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: We're putting AI to good use. Finally, Trump's DOZE team 201 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 1: has developed an AI tool that reviews federal regulations and 202 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: then highlights which ones could be removed. It is reviewed 203 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: two hundred thousand regulations so far, identified half half one 204 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: hundred thousand that should be done away with because they're 205 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 1: no longer required by federal law or they don't line 206 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: up with what the law is today. I know this 207 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: is huge. It could be trillions war dollars in savings 208 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: for Americans trillions war. Couple that with all the investment 209 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump has gotten, maybe you start to see it 210 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: all come together. And here we were worried that DOGE 211 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: might end up not being as effective as we originally 212 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: thought or were promised. 213 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 2: It could be far better. 214 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: This is astounding progress from an administration that's only been 215 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: at the wheel for about six months. Federal agencies are 216 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: now going through the data, and they've been given until 217 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: September first review the AI tools findings and submit a 218 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: list of regulations to eliminate. And if we really do 219 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: end up cutting regulations in half, well, the projected savings 220 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: and compliances costs alone are a trillion and a half 221 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: dollars and stimulating the economy six hundred billion dollars in investment, 222 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: raking in another trillion dollars in revenue, and tricking the 223 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: federal government by eighty five billion dollars. 224 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: Win, win, win win. It's all good news. 225 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: I can only hope that we'll actually see it come 226 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: to fruition. 227 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 2: But I'm already. 228 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Encouraged by Trump delivering on those promises, because if you'll remember, 229 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: this was one of them. 230 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 7: Listen, this will be the largest and fastest, most aggressive 231 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 7: regulatory reduction. It's going to be the largest regulatory reduction 232 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 7: in the history of our country. 233 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 2: It's going to happen very fast. 234 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a reason we cheered for that, because we 235 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: know that a slimmer government is one that serves the 236 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: most people's interests. When you try to cater to just 237 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 1: one crowd, the climate fanatics or left wing crazies, you 238 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: end up helping no one at all and damaging the 239 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: opportunity to afford it to most Americans. You just screw 240 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: things up. But when you have a government that leaves 241 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: room for Americans, all Americans, to decide their course forward, 242 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: you have a thriving place to live, to grow, to learn, 243 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 1: and economists are excited about this new era. 244 00:11:59,280 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: Listen to this. 245 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,439 Speaker 8: Why is deregulation such a big deal? Because you think 246 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 8: it's the most important factor of out. 247 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 3: Built it is now that trade is I think largely 248 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 3: past us. Look, there's very little attention paid to this subject. 249 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 3: And it's just amazing to me because the mother's milk 250 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 3: of stock market gains are earnings, and earnings are driven 251 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 3: by less red tape, and so we're going to see 252 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 3: deregulations afford the banks the opportunity to loosen their purse 253 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 3: strings a little bit and have more capital start to flow. 254 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 3: So I think we're on the precipice of one of 255 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 3: the most business friendly environments of our time. 256 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 2: That's a big deal. 257 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 8: You know. It certainly is on top of if you're 258 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 8: on the cusp of the most friendly business environment of 259 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 8: our time, surely we're on the cusp of a nice 260 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 8: move for the market. 261 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 3: Add to that, AI add to that the extension of 262 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 3: the tax cuts. 263 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 2: And so on and so forth. It's all good news. 264 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: It's time to slash the red tape and on least 265 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: America's potential deregulation and is roaring back with a vengeance. 266 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 1: Lee Elvin's leadership and the AI tools, of course, but 267 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: Donaldrup and the AI tools fightings promised trillions in savings, 268 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: boosting our economy while keeping innovation alive. 269 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 2: That is of the court stone metal. 270 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: This could be the dawn of a much freer, more 271 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: prosperous America. More good work from the Trump administration. All right, 272 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: Coming up after the break, President Trump has announced a 273 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: new deadline for Russia to end its war with the 274 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: Ukraine or face steep sanctions in tariffs. Details on the way. 275 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: President Trump announcing that he is giving Russia and Ukraine 276 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: until the eighth of August. That's one week from Friday 277 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: to end there three and a half year long bloody 278 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: war or face sanctions in tariffs. On Tuesday, inboard Air 279 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: Force one coming back from Europe, President Trump stated that 280 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: the clock was ticking as he made his way back 281 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: to the States. 282 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 9: Watched this, mister yesterday you mentioned you would change the 283 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 9: fresher deadline to ten to twelve days.

I don't know if it's going to affect 293 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 7: Russia because he wants to obviously probably. 294 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 2: Keep the war going. 295 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 7: But we're going to put it on tariffs and the 296 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 7: various things that you put on.

It's good narrative. 307 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: It's a good line to lay down, but it doesn't 308 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: really get anything done. 309 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 10: Honestly, Sorry, I think I'm here to talk about education reform. 310 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 10: I'm not, Tim, I'm Tommy. 311 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: Sorry, oh my mistake. 312 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that then, Tommy, how are you good? 313 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 10: How are you out? 314 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: They bait and switched us here. It's all right, all right, 315 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: let's talk education reform. Let's talk about the end of 316 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: the Department of Education, Let's talk about the National Education 317 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: Association and the rest. Where do you want to begin. 318 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 10: Yeah, Look, with the election of President Trump in November, 319 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 10: it really put us on a path where we can 320 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 10: eliminate the Department and make performs to student loans and 321 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 10: improve for students their test scores. And I think with 322 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 10: the last inmistration did was a complete travesty with the 323 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 10: student loan debt forgiveness plan that they had, where they 324 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 10: essentially wanted to say, hey, if you took out all 325 00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 10: of this debt, the federal government and taxpayers are just 326 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 10: going to wipe it away without questions. So President Trump, 327 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 10: the Congress, and Secretary of McMahon, they made a lot 328 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 10: of progress to change it. But luckily there are a 329 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 10: couple of other alternatives out there that are still baked 330 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 10: into the law that the President hasn't addressed yet. So 331 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 10: we're hopeful that the President and the Congress will address it. 332 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: All right, So back during the bidenministrations, we talked a 333 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: lot about student loan forgiveness. It went, it came and went, 334 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: where are we going forward? Is any of it going 335 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: to be forgiven? Were some of that was forgiven? Not 336 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: really official? It's going to be clawed back. Look, there's 337 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: a lot of money owned by a lot of people 338 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: for all useless. 339 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 2: Degrees out there. What do you say, Yeah. 340 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 10: It's true. So the biggest driver that we're focused on 341 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 10: right now is called the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program. 342 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 10: It was a law created about twenty years ago, and 343 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 10: it says, if you work for a government state, local, 344 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 10: or federal, or work for a nonprofit, you get all 345 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 10: of your debt forgiven within ten years, after ten years 346 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 10: of payments. That's not exactly fair. And then when you 347 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 10: dig into the numbers, it shows that the average borrower 348 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 10: has eighty thousand dollars wiped away. It costs about three 349 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 10: billion dollars a year, thirty billion over the course of 350 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 10: that ten year period. So it's a very expensive program, 351 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 10: and we just think that there's a total unfairness within 352 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 10: the law. You could be a working class individual waiting 353 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 10: tables without a college degree, probably making half of that 354 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 10: a year, and instead you have someone working behind a 355 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 10: keyboard getting eighty thousand dollars wiped away. It's totally unfair, 356 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 10: and I think as the Republican Party becomes the party 357 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 10: of the working class, we need to change that. 358 00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: All right, So let me ask you this thing, the 359 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: Department of Education. As we proceed through all this, the 360 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,679 Speaker 1: part of education came to be, I believe in nineteen 361 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: seventy nine, it has spent got unknown amounts of money 362 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: for test scores to get worse, for kids to be dumber. 363 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: I mean, look, Johnny can't read as soon as he 364 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: can't write, and we got problems in America. 365 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 2: So where do we go from here? Does the Department 366 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 2: of Education. 367 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 1: Get completely dissolved or will it be a remnant there. 368 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 2: That the Democrats can rebuild if they get a chance. 369 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's something we need to be totally cautious of, 370 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 10: and I think the President has put it on a 371 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 10: path to where they're going to break off parts of 372 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 10: the department and go to other places. Student lending, for example, 373 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 10: might go to the Small Business Administration. So I think 374 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 10: we just need to get the government out of the 375 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 10: way completely. And that's why we're working on proposals to 376 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 10: change student loan lending to ensure that we eliminate taxpayer 377 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 10: funded bailouts for student lens. For student lending, we need 378 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 10: to make sure that that does not continue in the future. 379 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 10: And the way we look at it is, if you 380 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 10: eliminate the public service loan forgiveness program, you save thirty 381 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 10: billion dollars a year. Or if you can't even get that, 382 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 10: there are a number of potential bipartisan solutions to significantly 383 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 10: cut down how much taxpayers have to fork over, whether 384 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 10: it's income requirements or the benefit defined benefit contribution plans. 385 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 10: There are a number of alternatives on the table. We 386 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 10: just don't think we should be subsidizing people to sit 387 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 10: behind computers, make minimum payments for ten years, and then 388 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 10: have eighty thousand dollars of their debt wiped away. It's 389 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 10: totally unfair. 390 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 2: It is totally unfair. 391 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: It's remarkable, in fact, the bad performance that we get 392 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 1: from the Department of Education, all the squandered money. We're 393 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: used to that in the government, but there are timesing 394 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 1: stuff and say, look, we're gonna be done with this. 395 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: So there is a plan to go forward to eliminate 396 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: this I think it's a good plan for the country, 397 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: and Tommy, I appreciate you being here for the national 398 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 1: tax payers. Sorry about the confusion a moment. Glad to 399 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: have you here. We'll see again soon. All right, all right, 400 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: there you go. We'll take a break and I'll talk 401 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: about President Trump's new deadline for Russia and Ukraine and 402 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: ending that war straight ahead. All right? 403 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 2: About that? Tracked down to discuss President. 404 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: Trump's new deadline to end that war between Russian and Ukraine. 405 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: Has been going on for three and a half years. 406 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: Most people didn't think it would go on more than 407 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: three and a half days, maybe three and a half weeks, 408 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 1: but three and a half years. 409 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 2: I don't think most people thought that. 410 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,919 Speaker 1: I certainly didn't hear me to discuss as foreign affairs 411 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: correspondent from the Washington Examiner, Tim Mrozzi, Tim, nice. 412 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,479 Speaker 2: To see you today. Thank you. Nice to see you too. 413 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 2: The war has been going. 414 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: On a lot longer than I think most anticipated, and 415 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,680 Speaker 1: it's proven a few things. First of all, both sides 416 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: seemed reluctant for this peace deal, and Donald Trump now 417 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: saying you've got a week from Friday to get it 418 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: done or we're gonna bet tough sanctions in against everybody. 419 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: I don't know if Donald Trump has that kind of 420 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: political capital. It's a big ask, what are your thoughts? 421 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 11: Well, the conflict's definitely gone on longer than anyone, especially 422 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 11: Vladimir Putin, ever expected. This was supposed to be a 423 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 11: cakewalk and sort of easy surprise conquest that scored some 424 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 11: serious geopolitical points for himself and for Russia, but that 425 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 11: clearly has not worked out. He's now engulfed in what 426 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 11: it can only be described as a lose lose scenario 427 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 11: of putting his country into a war that they can't 428 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:22,479 Speaker 11: seem to clinch and at the same time are completely 429 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 11: incapable of backing out of. Trump moved this deadline up significantly, 430 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 11: cutting it in down to like a fifth. But even 431 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,239 Speaker 11: as he did that, he said that he was doing 432 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 11: it because he thinks he already knows what the answer is, 433 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 11: and I think everyone involved seems to understand the answer 434 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 11: is going to be no, that Russia's not going to 435 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 11: make any meaningful pivot away from their current policy of continuing. 436 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 2: The war as is. 437 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 11: Ukraine has made clear from the very beginning that they 438 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 11: are willing to really suffer some very serious setbacks as 439 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 11: long as it can get a cease fire across. So 440 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 11: they're willing to make concessions that, especially at the beginning 441 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 11: of the war, they would never have been willing to make. 442 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 11: But it really comes down to the fact that Russia 443 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 11: is unable to back out of this conflict without it 444 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 11: being a complete political failure for everyone involved it is. 445 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 2: It's a failure militarily, I think is safe to say. 446 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: This is supposed to be one of the premier militaries 447 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: on the planet and they can't take out a small 448 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 1: neighbor in three and a half years time. 449 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 2: When this started, I thought that the Red. 450 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 1: Army would roll through Ukraine in a few days, maybe 451 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: a few weeks, but it wouldn't take It wouldn't take 452 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: long before the ultimate happened. 453 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 2: Right now, we've got a long term meat grinder. 454 00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: One point five million casualties dead or wounded, a number 455 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: bigger than all of Europe in nineteen thirty nine and 456 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: forty in the front end of World War two, more 457 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: casualty theirs in this same period of time. Let me 458 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 1: ask you this, many observers think that President Zelenskiy, Vladimir Zelensky, 459 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: is not going to be there much longer. He might 460 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: not be there when the war ends. Your thoughts on 461 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: that part of the conversation. 462 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 11: I think that's pretty purely speculative. I think that Zelensky, 463 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 11: whether you here in America, whether you like it or not, 464 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 11: has shown a certain mandate from the people of popularity. 465 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,880 Speaker 11: He seems to be embodying the conflict quite effectively. Whether 466 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 11: that will hold on until the end of the war. Obviously, 467 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 11: there have been accusations of sort of you know, putting 468 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 11: anti corruption investigations under freeze, and certainly that does not 469 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 11: reflect well on his government. But I think it's a 470 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 11: little premature to be planning his political funeral anytime soon. 471 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not planning on his political funeral. 472 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 1: And there's going by what the tea leaves tell me, 473 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: And the tea leaves tell me that he's got family 474 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 1: members and other close associates buying real estate in Miami 475 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,239 Speaker 1: and London. And we're not talking about low end real 476 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: estate here, We're talking about high end real estate. Have 477 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 1: you heard those rumors or just circulating in the in 478 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: the back in the back alley. 479 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 11: I personally haven't heard those rumors. I will say Eastern 480 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 11: Europeans do love buying overseas properties, so it would not 481 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,359 Speaker 11: be the most shocking development in the world. But again, 482 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 11: I think it would be wrong to doubt Zelenski's commitment 483 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 11: to this conflict. Whether you're cynical about it or not. 484 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 11: He does seem to be geared on seeing this through 485 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 11: to the end. He's never given any indication of his 486 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 11: you know, self preservation. You saw at the very beginning 487 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 11: of the conflict when he refused to evacuate on multiple 488 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 11: occasions when Ukrainian authorities warned him that he would. 489 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 2: Have to move to a safer space. 490 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 11: So, you know, Zelenski himself, I don't think he has any 491 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 11: plans to willingly leave office in short of any sort 492 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 11: of drastic change in the in the situation. 493 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:30,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see how that plays out to him. 494 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: And I don't discrete you Eastern Europeans do like to 495 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: buy real estate America. We generally don't have to do 496 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: it with American dollars. Before I let you go, though, 497 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: let me ask you about this. The Russia collusion hoax 498 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: now coming to light. Apparently cash Betel and his team 499 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: have found burn bags. It's referring to him as burn 500 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 1: bags in a back room in the Hoover Building. It's 501 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: evidence related to how the FBI and the others set 502 00:24:56,560 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: up Donald Trump with the information from the Steele dossier, 503 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: connected back obviously to Perkinskoy and Hillary Clinton. 504 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 2: What do you make of this revelation? 505 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 11: Well, I don't think there's really not much that ione 506 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 11: could say to surprise observers about how much of a 507 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 11: botched sort of con job the entire Russiagate scandal was. 508 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 11: But I do think it does become incumbent on the 509 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 11: Trump admin that if you're going to make accusations of 510 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,679 Speaker 11: incredibly serious criminal activities, if you're going to put forward 511 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 11: those accusations, they're going to make good on that, right, 512 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 11: You're going to need to show in some way in 513 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 11: your actions that this was actually a level of crime 514 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,679 Speaker 11: worthy of, you know, some sort of action from the 515 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,199 Speaker 11: from the sitting government.

Thank you, thank you for 531 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 2: having me. 532 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: All right, after the break a pair of janitors at Columbia. 533 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: I've now settled a case for the Ivy League School 534 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: after being held hostage by anti Israel protesters and last year's. 535 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,679 Speaker 2: Riots that happen on campus. 536 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: Of course, we'll discuss that in more detail after the break. 537 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,919 Speaker 1: All right to Columbia University maintenance staff workers who were 538 00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: allegedly held hostage by anti Israel protesters during last year 539 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: riots in April have settled a complaint now with the 540 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: Ivy League School. Mario Torres, along with one of his colleagues, 541 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: settled with the university for an undisclosed sum just days 542 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: after Colby announced a two hundred and twenty million dollars 543 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: settlement with the Trump administration for civil rights violations and 544 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: racially discriminatory practices. Despite the settlement, the two men are 545 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 1: moving forward with a lawsuit against forty protesters who allegedly 546 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: assaulted and battered them and held them against their will. 547 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: It's called kidnapping. Anti sumitism is no place in America. 548 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 1: It's about time for universities and individuals to be held 549 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: accountable for these heinous acts. I agree here with me 550 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: now to discuss as Campus Reforms Editor in chief Zachary Marshall. 551 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 2: Zachary, nice to see you today. 552 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: Look, this is a big deal and I'm going to 553 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 1: guess that the settlements are significant. 554 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 2: But I also applaud. 555 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: These two janitors for continuing their suits against the forty 556 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: individuals give or take, who were directly involved with their confinement. 557 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: It's called kidnappings, and there's no easy way to put 558 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 1: this right. They blocked them in their refused to let 559 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: them leave, Scared the daylights of. 560 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 2: They didn't know if they're going to never die for 561 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 2: a period there. What say you? 562 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 12: I think the janitors deserve every single cent they get 563 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 12: from the settlement and it's part of twenty million dollars 564 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 12: that Columbia University is paying out to people who are 565 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 12: affected by civil rights discrimination in the last year or so. 566 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 12: This is an institution that Hitler really could do business 567 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 12: with because Colombia has ignored swastikas on its wall, It 568 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 12: has ignored and downplayed in gas lighted Americans about jew 569 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 12: hatred on its campus. These janitors, when they were kidnapped, 570 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 12: they were yelled at. They were yelled at the slogan's 571 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 12: Jewish jewliver, and those were the slogans that people in 572 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 12: Vienna and Berlin yelled at Jews in the nineteen thirties. 573 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 12: So this is very much Nazin tactics that played out 574 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 12: in Colombia and are now paying out big bucks because 575 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 12: they chose to lie about it this whole time. 576 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: So, just so I'm clear that Zachary, you know, yelling 577 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: things like that at Jewish students, barricading them, creating things 578 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 1: like jew exclusion zones like they did the UCLA and 579 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: other places in this country, that's actually anti Semitic Nazi action. 580 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 2: Wearing blue jeans is not. Just so I'm clear on that, Okay. 581 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 12: Absolutely, yeah, yeah, I mean it's not that hard. I 582 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 12: don't know why the left pretends that everything is so 583 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 12: complicated when there are certain just moral areas in our 584 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 12: life that are very black and white. Using speech to 585 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 12: compel violence or compel action against someone else because of 586 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 12: how they are born is discrimination. That's not protected. Free speech. 587 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 12: Expressing an opinion about political party is free speech. This 588 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 12: is pretty much understood in our society until Jews get involved. 589 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 12: Until academics were never challenged in their daily jobs on 590 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 12: campuses because there are no conservatives there to challenge them. 591 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 12: Now get thrust in the spotlight. They are defensive and 592 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 12: the resort to manipulation and guess lighting what Columbia University 593 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 12: did for months claiming that their de escalation policies were working, 594 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 12: they weren't. The Hamilton Hall occupation, which is what the 595 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 12: occupation where these genders were physically attacked and harassed, was 596 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 12: the result of Columbia University delaying asking the police to 597 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 12: come in and escort out of the protesters. They chose 598 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,479 Speaker 12: to let us happen. It's on their hands. 599 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we go back years, Zach Daniel, You know, 600 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: a year ago, back to the early parts the middle 601 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: parts of twenty twenty four. This was going on all 602 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: over the country. Yeah, Columbia was UCLA, it was a 603 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: whole host of other places that were allowed to continue 604 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: with these riots, these sit ins, these. 605 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 2: Protests where they're massquating its protests. 606 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: These really were riots, in many cases, violent uprisings where 607 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: they took over school buildings, did tremendous amounts of property 608 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: damage and everything else. We're not seeing that this year. 609 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: There's a great change in okay, and for the better. 610 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: Wouldn't you say? 611 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 12: Yes? 612 00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 7: And no? 613 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 12: So what's happening with the settlement of Columbia with Harvard 614 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 12: University now wanting to settle, you know, their issues with 615 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 12: the Trump administration. Yes, that's good, but all these universities 616 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 12: are doing it because they want their money. The most 617 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 12: effective thing that's ever happened in this entire saga is 618 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 12: the Department of Education stripping federal funding from these universities, 619 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 12: and that lack of money is causing them to whether 620 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:30,120 Speaker 12: it's Brown University taking out a five hundred million dollars 621 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 12: loan to cover expenses or to do a hiring freeze, 622 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 12: it's causing these universities to change how they're operating, and 623 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 12: that includes actually protecting Jews. They're not doing it now 624 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 12: because they care about Jewish students. They don't, But they're 625 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 12: doing because they want their money back. So while I'm 626 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 12: glad to progress discussed, it's disgusting. 627 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me ask you that, do you think they're right? 628 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 2: Don't care about Jewish students? 629 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 12: No, I mean, I'm a Jewish American, I have a PhD. 630 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 12: I have gone through the academic process. I don't see 631 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 12: caring for Jewish Americans the way you would care for 632 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 12: any other minority in this country, in a sense that 633 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 12: you want them to be protected by the state of 634 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 12: laws equally and to be as equally outraged by discrimination 635 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 12: against anyone, no matter what they look like or how 636 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 12: they were born. 637 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: Well, let me ask you about outrage before you get 638 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: out of here today. Yeah, first France, now the UK 639 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: saying they are recognizing the nation of Palestine. 640 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 2: There is no nation of Palestine that I'm aware of. 641 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what they're recognizing. What does that tell 642 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: the Jewish community. I mean, I've talked to a number 643 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: of Jewish friends of mine who, leading up to the 644 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: election of last year, had never voted for a Republican 645 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: in their lives, never up to it, including Joe Biden. 646 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 2: They voted for Joe Biden. Then they saw what happened. 647 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: Many of those people became Trump voters, maybe not supporters exactly, 648 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: but Trump voters, and they have left the Democrat Party 649 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: permanently because of the way they were treated. And now 650 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: you see France in the UK coming to recognize a 651 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: nation that doesn't actually exist. 652 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 2: What messages is that sent. 653 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 12: It sends the message that Jews are the only people 654 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 12: in the world who are not allowed to defend themselves. 655 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 12: Israel has said from the beginning, this war ends today 656 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 12: if you release all the hostages. They're about fifty left. 657 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 12: And instead of demanding that Hamas released the hostages, France 658 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 12: and the United Kingdom are saying, Israel, if you stop 659 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,479 Speaker 12: bombing the terrorists, we're going to recognize your enemy. That 660 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 12: is completely ludicrous. Hamas is the one that pulled out 661 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 12: of the negotiations that are being conducted via a cutter, 662 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 12: not Israel. Israel went to the negotiating table. They are 663 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 12: trying to deliver more and more humanitarian aid despite Hamas 664 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 12: going away from the negotiating table and stealing the aid 665 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 12: from the Palestinians.

That was 718 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 1: just one hundred million dollars to help out the folks. 719 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: That was an interim thing. Here'll be discuss as CEO 720 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 1: for the Alliance for Irs Accountability, Chuck Flint. 721 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,720 Speaker 2: All right, Chuck, the money didn't go to the victims. 722 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 1: No, it went to NGOs and nonprofits and other things, 723 00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: and it got Look, anybody knows you put it. 724 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 2: If you had a machine hero it's called the government, 725 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:52,800 Speaker 2: and you put. 726 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,720 Speaker 1: A dollar in one side, you'd wait on the backside 727 00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: you get about six cents is it would spit it 728 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: out at the end. Because the inefficiency is remarkable. I 729 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to see a dime out of this, 730 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: chuck Er, Have I just jaded you? 731 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 6: Know, Steve, I started my career as a state prosecutor 732 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,880 Speaker 6: and I've seen stuff like this. We call it money laundering, 733 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 6: and that's what it looks like. Because when you start 734 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 6: to unravel all of this, fire Aid made a promise 735 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 6: of direct assistance to all of these victims, and all 736 00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 6: of a sudden you start seeing complaints from victims of 737 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 6: these fires, and by the way, some of which I 738 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 6: know who have lost their homes. I mean, this was 739 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 6: a terrible tragedy and they haven't seen a dime of 740 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 6: this money. And when you go to the fire Aid website, 741 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 6: they've now included these statements on there because of the 742 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,120 Speaker 6: criticism that they've gotten, that the money is going where 743 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 6: it needs to and that it goes directly to folks. 744 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,319 Speaker 6: But when you click on that they it says that 745 00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 6: it's gone to over one hundred and sixty of these nonprofits. 746 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 6: And to give you an idea of who some of 747 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 6: these nonprofits are, you're talking about the California Conservation Core, 748 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 6: which is basically a group that trains climate activists. You're 749 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 6: talking about the California Native Vote Project, which is a 750 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,919 Speaker 6: social justice mission. I don't know what the heck these 751 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,800 Speaker 6: groups know about disasters. 752 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 2: Say the goat. Did you say goats? No? No, no, 753 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 2: said California. Yeah, sorry about that. I think we're being 754 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 2: treated like goats. I tell you that. That's why I 755 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 2: heard that. 756 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,880 Speaker 1: Maybe, Yeah, in found a bunch of garbage and a 757 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 1: go to lead anything. 758 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's remarkable, all right. 759 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 1: The California Conservation League, that little special interest group, that 760 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: little special interest group, you know, some of the place 761 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,439 Speaker 1: has got you know, one hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, 762 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: a million dollars whatever they got for some of these folks, 763 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: biggest payday they ever had. Don't think they're running down 764 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: to the bank to give that money away. 765 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 2: I certainly don't think so. 766 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 1: And I'll go back to what you said at the top, Chuck. 767 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 1: Looks like money laundering, pretty sure, pretty strong accusation. 768 00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 6: Well, you know, I've seen this before, and it looks 769 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 6: like this is what people do when they want to 770 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:08,960 Speaker 6: offuscate what there maybe they have another purpose for. And 771 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 6: the purpose here was allegedly to provide direct aid to 772 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 6: these victims. However, that's not happened, and it's gone out 773 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,040 Speaker 6: to a lot of these pet projects and there hasn't 774 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 6: been much accountability the victims tell us that they're not 775 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,760 Speaker 6: getting any of the money, and that's a big problem. 776 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 2: So it's next step. 777 00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 6: I mean, look, the IRS should actually take a look 778 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 6: at this and demand an accounting of these groups and 779 00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 6: where the money is gone, and if it hasn't gone 780 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 6: to where it's supposed to go, then they should revoke 781 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 6: their tax exempt status. 782 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 2: That would be an idea right there. 783 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,880 Speaker 6: But it's really a tragedy and it's unfortunate that this 784 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,920 Speaker 6: is going on in fire aid. I will say I 785 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 6: was recently on their website and they've got this whole 786 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 6: accounting now for you to combat the accusations. The Los 787 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 6: Angeles Times did a puff piece for them last. 788 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 2: Week, So wait a second. 789 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: So in the end, the lawyers went again, because the 790 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: lawyers are going to get paid here if they got 791 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: a lawyer up on these deals, the lawyers get paid. 792 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: The people that got their house burned get nothing. I 793 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 1: don't know if be able to play the music at 794 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 1: any and it's I got to leave it there.

I understand that there are two 797 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: high ranking officials inside the IRS speaking of all that 798 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 1: placed on administrative leave while on investigation is held on 799 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:26,840 Speaker 1: their conduct against Republicans. 800 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 2: Here we go again.
