The President 19 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: made the announcement at a roundtable meeting with this cabinet 20 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: at the White House, and it's being reported that eleven 21 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 1: billion dollars will go to crop farmers as part of 22 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: the farmer Bridge Assistance program, while the remaining billion dollars 23 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: will cover other crops.

It's Christmas early for farmers. I 29 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 3: want my four month old daughter to have an opportunity. 30 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 3: And what you're doing here in DC. 31 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: Is working. 32 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 3: You have a backbone to stand up to other countries 33 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: for trade. You're getting things done tax provisions. I'll be 34 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: able to potentially pass on a farm to my children 35 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: because of you. 36 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: I'll be able to pass on my farm to my 37 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: children with a powerful statement. We'll keep it close up 38 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: to date on all of those developments. It's really important 39 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: to understand that what's going on here is that these 40 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: payments are a bridge between the past where farmers were 41 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: constantly in an unfair trade position, in the future where 42 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 1: President Trump has secured these new trade deals. And we'll 43 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: be covering that in and out over the next several 44 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: months here at Just the News in Real America's Voice. 45 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:24,919 Speaker 2: All right, we also have. 46 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: Some major news to get to you regarding the DC 47 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: pipe bomb investigation.

The witness, who later public identified herself 53 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: as Karen Younger, said she found the pipe bomb in 54 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: an alley way while doing laundry on. 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: The day of the Capitol riots. 56 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,919 Speaker 1: The News previously reported on that and Younger's account, well, 57 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: it conflicts with some of the FBI's timeline, which shows 58 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: the bomb was planted the night before, despite a learning 59 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: law enforcement to the bomb. The FBI also did not 60 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: interview Younger until five days after the incident. Now that's 61 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: the old FBI, the Chris Ray FBI, mat the Cash 62 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: Burteu FBI. But we're going to be covering that. The 63 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: Congress has wanted to talk to this woman for some time. 64 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: They're escalating the pressure. We're going to keep you. 65 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: Up to speed on that now. To kick off the 66 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 2: show tonight. 67 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: Earlier today, had a chance to sit down with Illinois 68 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Mary Miller. 69 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: She's a farmer. 70 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: She comes from a part of Illinois that's heavy on farm. 71 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: She had a lot of reaction to what President Trump 72 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: did today, as well as the renewed pressure to use 73 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: the purse strings of the United States government to force 74 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: change in blue states like Illinois, which want to resist 75 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's every wish and what listen to what we 76 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: talked about. 77 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: All right, folks, we've got a perfect start to. 78 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: The show, joining us from the great state of Illinois, 79 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: where ground zero for a lot of these fights are 80 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Mary Miller. Congress Woman, great to have you on 81 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: the show. 82 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 4: Well, thank you for having me and giving me the 83 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 4: opportunity to highlight how blue states are thwarting President Trump's 84 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 4: efforts to make them a great again. 85 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're thwarting now. They also there's thwarting that will 86 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: of the American people. Americans want common sense back in government, 87 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: but these blue states keep tugging back. 88 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: Why do you think that is so? 89 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 4: Barack Obama made the statement that his dream was to 90 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 4: fundamentally transform the country. I think they hate our country 91 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 4: and they want a socialist country, Marxist country, and where 92 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: a half of a percent of the people end up 93 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 4: thriving and everybody else are their minions. And you know, 94 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 4: Illinois doing everything to keep it from being a place 95 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 4: where the citizens can prosper and flourish. 96 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are been lots of frustrations among Republicans on 97 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: how to deal with it, but I think there seems 98 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,799 Speaker 1: to be a growing consensus that the most powerful tool 99 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: that Congress and the President has is the. 100 00:04:58,360 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: Power of the perse. 101 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: If blue state it's want to do crazy things, it's 102 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: going to come at the expense of their tax dollars 103 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: going forward. Does that seem to have a future and 104 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: does it seem to be something that might get the 105 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: attention of blue states and blue cities. 106 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 4: Well, it better because we're going to use it. I'm 107 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 4: on the House Agriculture Committee, and I thought very hard 108 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 4: to ensure that illegals are not included in SNAP benefits. 109 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 4: And now the state of Illinois Governor Pritzker refuses to 110 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 4: cooperate with the USDA and release the eligibility roles for SNAP, 111 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 4: and they're going to have their benefits cut off. And 112 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 4: he can explain it to the citizens in Illinois. But 113 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 4: American people have had it. They know that they've been abused, 114 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 4: and they want what President Trump is trying to do, 115 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 4: and that is transparency in the government and accountability. 116 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: Why do you think a governor wouldn't want to let 117 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: the people who pay SNAP benefits the federal government see 118 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: what's going on there. 119 00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 2: What are they trying to hide? 120 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 4: Well, we're a destination state for every rotten thing, obviously, 121 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 4: where for illegals to come here and sign up for 122 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 4: every single kind of benefit. We've spent billions of dollars 123 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 4: that we don't have on the healthcare for illegals, and 124 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 4: I'm certain that they're all signed up for SNAP benefits 125 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 4: as well. And this is all about elections, it's about 126 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 4: getting their votes. 127 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it is right. 128 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: And then I guess at the end of the day, 129 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 1: apportionment too, you right, because every illegal that's kind of 130 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: ultimately helped set the formulas for federal funding for representation. 131 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: Has that been the long game that Democrats have played 132 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: to use illegal immigration to hijack apportionment. 133 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 4: Absolutely, And we lost one district last time. I kind 134 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: of think we should have lost too. But you know, 135 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 4: there again, in light of voter roles, if they won't 136 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 4: be transparent and they won't tend to the voter roles 137 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 4: and make sure ineligible people, dead people and illegals are 138 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 4: not on there they can have their federal funding withdrawn 139 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 4: to run the elections. 140 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a simple equation and sometimes solicity. These things 141 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: happen in politics just to the north of Illinois. 142 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 2: Love it to the north. 143 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,559 Speaker 1: Minnesota has given us a really profound example. We began 144 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: reporting at it here at justin News last August August 145 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four, when Governor Waltz was named the VP. 146 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: We started looking at all of this food fraud and 147 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: autism fraud that was in the Somali immigrant community. It 148 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 1: brings two forces together to show how they're working. You've 149 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: got an immigrant committee, some with illegal immigrants in it, 150 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: and the constant waste, fraud and abuse that government often 151 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: allows itself because it's so poorly managed. 152 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Is there any blowback? 153 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: Does the magnitude of the Minnesota a welfare scandal perhaps 154 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: have some people in Illini thinking that probably happened here too. 155 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 4: Yes, the regular citizens in here know that they're being abused. 156 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 4: They don't trust JB. Pritzkare They actually can't stand him. 157 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: And I just want people to be encouraged. You have 158 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 4: to go out and vote in the midterms. For example, 159 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 4: Illinois is a red state. If we can get people 160 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 4: to come out and vote. But I think it will 161 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 4: really help for US to force states to clean up 162 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 4: their voter roles and make sure only eligible people that 163 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 4: means US citizens are included. And it doesn't help for 164 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 4: people just to show a voter ID because states like Illinois, Minnesota, 165 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 4: New York, California, they are issuing driver's licenses to people 166 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 4: and also signing them up to vote. So we need 167 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 4: to have proof of citizenship and they need to be 168 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 4: taken off the voter rolls, and people that are involved 169 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: in election fraud should have very serious consequences. 170 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt about it. 171 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: To Save Act a big part of that, obviously. That's 172 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: the signature House led to say that make sure that 173 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: citizenship is a check before someone registers or votes in America. 174 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 2: Your colleagues in the Senate sometimes have a hard time 175 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,719 Speaker 2: getting to that sixty vote threshold. 176 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: You personally, do you think it's time to get rid 177 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 1: of the fell of us or do you like the 178 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: US For the Senate. 179 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 4: I think it is time to get rid of it, 180 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 4: but I don't think we have the votes to get 181 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 4: rid of it. We have frauds on our side, and 182 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 4: actually people need to pay more attention to primary elections. 183 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 4: I said, we should start nicknaming the primary elections Fire 184 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 4: the Frauds, and people need to find out who their 185 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 4: representatives are and how they're representing them. It's really a shame. Yes, 186 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 4: we do have a narrow majority both in the House 187 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 4: and the Senate, and I hate it that. I think 188 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 4: a lot of times, Mike Johnson, I think he has 189 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 4: the worst job in the country, the hardest job. He 190 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 4: takes the rep for not getting things done as fast 191 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 4: as people want them to. But the fact is that 192 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 4: he doesn't have the vote. A lot of times, we 193 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 4: don't have true conservatives on our side, and people need 194 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 4: to get out to vote in the primary. 195 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: I think Fire of the Frauds would be one heck 196 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 1: of a TV series. 197 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 2: I have a funny feeling that would be very, very popular. 198 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: I want to turn to something that's at hand, the 199 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: Enhanced Obamacare subsidiaries. Subsidies which are the ones that were 200 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: thrown in and made insurance companies rich during COVID, though 201 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 1: they didn't really bring a whole lot more benefit to 202 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: everyday citizens, they're expiring. Is this a moment where Republicans 203 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: for the first time put a really remarkable alternative to 204 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: Obamacare on the table. 205 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's definitely a moment. And I think it's interesting 206 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 4: when the Democrats do something, how they always name it 207 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 4: the opposite of what it is. But it's definitely the 208 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 4: Unaffordable Care Act. It's driven healthcare prices and that for 209 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 4: the American citizen, for the American taxpayer up. And it's 210 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 4: greatly rich the insurance companies, and there's so much fraud 211 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 4: involved there also. But it is our moment, and I 212 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 4: don't think extending the subsidies is like putting a band 213 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 4: aid on that actually has adhesive worn out. I mean, 214 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,719 Speaker 4: it is not a fix to extend the subsidies for now. 215 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 4: We need true reform that will bring prices down for 216 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: the American consumer. 217 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, and some of that already because of the good 218 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: work of Republicans President Trump, these agreements with the pharmaceutical companies. 219 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: People are going to start to feel that when they 220 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: go to the next time they go to the pharmacy. Right, 221 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: there's some real changes ahead that Republicans have achieved even 222 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: before this next debate. 223 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, President Trump has gotten so much done for the country. 224 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 4: Just like his first term, he's fulfilling his promises it's 225 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 4: so huge to secure the border, the deportations, deregulation is huge. 226 00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 4: It's going to drive prices down for houses, for vias, 227 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 4: for energy. He's doing great work for the American people. 228 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 2: It is really remarkable. 229 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 1: One piece of that healthcare equation are these middlemen who 230 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: take a lot of money but don't bring any benefit 231 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: to me or you or any consumer. Someone like the 232 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: pharmaceutical benefit managers. Are they some of those that might 233 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: get extracted out of the healthcare system for good legislation. 234 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: Well, they should, and we need fair pricing for all, 235 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 4: you know, whether it's the pharmacies small or big. And 236 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 4: we need more competition, I believe, yeah, no doubt about it. 237 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 2: More competition always seems to improve things real quickly. 238 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: Before I let you go, because you live on a farm, 239 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: you have a lot of great farmers in your district. 240 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,079 Speaker 1: President Trump today putting some important short term aid to 241 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: America's farmers who've been wronged by the sort of unfair 242 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: trade practices of decades. Your reaction to the President's plan today. 243 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 4: Well, we're grateful President Trump cares to deeply about the 244 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 4: American family farm and this is a short term help, 245 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 4: but long term we need to bring which is what 246 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 4: he's doing bringing inflation costs down. When Joe Biden shut 247 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 4: down American energy, it cost great inflation on the farm 248 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 4: and increase the cost to put a crop in Also, 249 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 4: Joe Biden had a non existent trade policy, and President 250 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 4: Trump has been so active to try to negotiate better 251 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 4: trade deals for US and open up new markets which 252 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,439 Speaker 4: will help us more in the long term. 253 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of these trade deals have some huge new 254 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: opportunities for American farmers, a very exciting time in the 255 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: farming once we get through this sort of rebalancing moment.

John. 304 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: All Right, I have a fun story this morning because 305 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: I've been watching the Democrats the last few weeks saying 306 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: there's no such term as narco terrorism, and of course 307 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: this morning we had a story pointing out they used 308 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: to use the term all the time when Barack Obama 309 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: was president. Why all of a sudden, our Democrats afraid 310 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: to call narco terrorists what they are. 311 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 5: It's absolutely ridiculous. 312 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 6: I think what we've seen from Democrats, unfortunately, is a 313 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 6: lot of teds right. We saw this with Operation Midnight Hammer. 314 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 6: It was a resounding success. Yet we saw Democrats and 315 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 6: their allies in the mainstream media come out and say, oh, 316 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 6: you actually might not have obliterated those nuclear facilities. We 317 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 6: absolutely did. The Iranians even admitted so all of our 318 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 6: intelligence indicated, so it was a success. Now we're seeing 319 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 6: that same repeat playbook here with the strike against these 320 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 6: narco terrorists. They have from the beginning questioned the intelligence questioned, 321 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 6: if we really know who these people are, they might 322 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 6: just be poor fishermen. John, you and I both know 323 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 6: that fishermen don't have semi submersible submarines. That's absolutely ridicul 324 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 6: These people are trafficking deadly drugs to the United States 325 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 6: of America that poison and kill our people. And as 326 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 6: the President has said time and time again, every single 327 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 6: book that we take out saves twenty five thousand American lives. 328 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 6: That is fantastic. This Department has spent a lot of 329 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 6: decades putting other homelands first. Now we're defending our own border. 330 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 6: We've got ten thousand troops at the US southern border 331 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 6: right now, and we're defending our homeland from these threats 332 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 6: from these narco terrorists that are reigning terror across our hemisphere. 333 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 6: So the War Department is very proud to be a 334 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 6: part of this effort, and the strikes will continue despite 335 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 6: the Democrats criticisms and just total lack of facts on 336 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 6: these strikes that we've had. 337 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 5: Over the past few months here at the Pentagon, you've. 338 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: Had a lot of instances where news reports had a 339 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: lack of facts, such as in the Washington Post a 340 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: week ago when they suggested that the War Secretary had 341 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: made a common to kill all these people that were 342 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: floating out a boat. That wasn't turned out to be true, 343 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: according to the admiral followed him. 344 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: How frustrating is it to. 345 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 1: Have to constantly knock down false reporting in places where 346 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: it used to be the job to get the facts right. 347 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 6: It's incredibly frustrating, But you know, I think that people 348 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 6: who work in a Trump administration are unfortunately very used 349 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 6: to it. We have seen the mainstream media lie time 350 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 6: and time again about this president's accomplishments, and this administration 351 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 6: is no different. So we will continue to battle the 352 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,120 Speaker 6: fake news and to push back. And that Washington Post 353 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 6: story that you mentioned was particularly egregious. They attributed a 354 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 6: quote to the Secretary of War that he never said. 355 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 6: That is absolutely scumming journalism, and anyone who reads the 356 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 6: Washington Post should rethink where they're getting their news. Thankfully, 357 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 6: I think a lot of their readers have gone elsewhere 358 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 6: because they've realized they can't trust outlets like the Washington 359 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 6: Post anymore. Those outlets used to report the facts, maybe 360 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 6: way back in the day, but today they're just biased 361 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 6: actors that are looking to take down certain political viewpoints. 362 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 6: They've got an agenda, and I think the American people 363 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 6: can largely see through that thanks to independent media like 364 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 6: your show and like others who have begun to gain 365 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 6: massive momentum with viewers. 366 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny. 367 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: Facts are a stubborn thing. If you stick to them, 368 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: you usually benefit. It's a remarkable thing. I want to 369 00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: turn to Venezuela a little bit more. Obviously, the President, 370 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: since Thanksgiven, has indicated there could be some military action 371 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: to make sure that just like we stopped Venezuela and 372 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: drug boats for coming in, that drug mules coming by 373 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: land also are stopped. Is there any insights as to 374 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: what that might look like and when it might commence? 375 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 6: So our mission remains ongoing to take out these narco 376 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 6: terror boats all across the region. If you are a 377 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 6: narco terrorists, no matter what country you're from, if Venezuela 378 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 6: or another country, and you wish to poison the American people, 379 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 6: we will hunt you and we will kill you. President 380 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 6: Trump designated these groups designated terrorist organizations, and that allows 381 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 6: us at the Department of War to really take this 382 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 6: threat a lot more seriously than previous. 383 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 5: Admins have taken it. 384 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 6: President Biden, for example, welcomed narco terrorists into our country 385 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 6: through the southern border, a totally poor southern border. When 386 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 6: they got here, he gave them free phones, free healthcare. 387 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 6: We had no idea who was coming into our border. 388 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,359 Speaker 6: For four years. Now under President Trump, the border is 389 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 6: sealed and we're beginning to take these threats incredibly seriously. 390 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 6: And what we do at the Department of War is 391 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 6: we plan right. We have a contingency for everything. We 392 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 6: provide the President option. So a lot of the asset 393 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 6: build up you're seeing down there in the southcom region 394 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 6: in the Caribbean, now we've got the Forward Carrier Strike 395 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 6: Group down there, is to do just that, to provide 396 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 6: the President option, so that if the Commander in Chief 397 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 6: directs the Department of War to take action, we are ready. 398 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 6: Our warriors are standing by, and I will tell you 399 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 6: no one will be waiting on the Department of War 400 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 6: should the time come for us to act. 401 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: There was I think one of the most profound statements 402 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 1: that a Defense for War secretary has given in my 403 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: lifetime the other day from Secretary XF saying We're not 404 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: going to be distracted by nation building. We're not in 405 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: the business of interventionism, undefined wars, regime change, climate change focus, 406 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: or feckless nation building, making clear that the interest that 407 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: we have in Venezuela or anywhere else in the world 408 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 1: is really an American first agenda. 409 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 2: How important is that for the truths, for the people 410 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 2: who work. 411 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: In the Pentagon, for the contractors to know that their 412 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 1: Secretary of War understands exactly what the mission is. 413 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 5: It's so important. 414 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 6: And we've seen a total shift and reprioritization of the 415 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 6: threats that we face. Like you mentioned in the Secretary's quote, 416 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 6: he talks a lot about how the previous administration was 417 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,240 Speaker 6: focused on injecting ideology into our armed forces that had 418 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 6: no business being there. They were focused on the things 419 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 6: you said, climate change, transgenderism, COVID vaccines, just ridiculous stuff 420 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 6: that distracts from our mission. Our mission, at the end 421 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 6: of the day is to keep America safe, and we've 422 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 6: unfortunately lost that focus under previous administrations, both Republican and 423 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 6: Democrat frankly, but thanks to President Trump, we have a 424 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 6: reinvigorate America First perspective and framework that we are going 425 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 6: to apply to. 426 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 5: Every single threat that we face. 427 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 6: This is a president and a Secretary of War who 428 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 6: always asks does this serve the American people? And how 429 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 6: can our warfighters better put America first? So I think 430 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,120 Speaker 6: the American people can be very confident in this Secretary 431 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 6: in this president's administration in terms of making sure our 432 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 6: warriors number one are able to do their jobs unencumbered, 433 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 6: but number two are always putting America first and always 434 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 6: keeping that interest top of mind. 435 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 2: There's been a. 436 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: Lot of discussion in social media and political circles policy 437 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: circles about the reassertion of the Monroe doction taking care 438 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: of business in our own hemisphere, which during the last 439 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:44,479 Speaker 1: administration we turned a blind eye to China's infiltration all 440 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: across Latin America. 441 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: Central America. What sort of Central. 442 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: America in Latin America did the Trump administration inherit. How 443 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: quickly is it changing with our America First agenda? 444 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 6: So much like the United States of America, we inherited 445 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,360 Speaker 6: a total mess when it comes to the Caribbean. When 446 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 6: it comes to South America, they were Narco terrorists that 447 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 6: were just running terror and wreaking havoc all across the hemisphere. 448 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 6: They were totally in charge of what went on, and 449 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 6: they were bringing, as I mentioned, those deadly drugs to 450 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 6: the United States of America under Joe Biden. That was 451 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 6: totally unacceptable. They were actively harming and poisoning our people. 452 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 6: The number one killer of young people in the United 453 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 6: States today is drug overdoses, and that was a direct 454 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 6: result of all of the deadly drugs that were flowing 455 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 6: into our open borders. So President Trump and Secretary Hegseeth 456 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 6: have said no more. We've seen a total mind shift, 457 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 6: and I think it's been really important for our warriors 458 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 6: that are down in this area, down in Central America 459 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 6: and South America deployed there. Previously, they'd been working on 460 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 6: a lot of stuff like climate change. That's kind of 461 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 6: what southcomb was known for. Now Southcomb is actively engaging 462 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 6: with these Narco terrorists, taking out eighty seven Narco terrorists 463 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,440 Speaker 6: to date and making sure that the America and people 464 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 6: are kept safe. And at the end of the day, 465 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 6: that's what our warriors signed up to do, and that's 466 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 6: what President Trump wants them to be able to do unencumbered. 467 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 6: So we're very encouraged by our success thus far, and 468 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 6: it will only continue. 469 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: Remarkable number eighty seven arcre terrorists gone from the face 470 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 1: of the earth, pretty pretty impressive. 471 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 2: Real quickly. Before we go. 472 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: You can often tell what Congress things about a War 473 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: Secretary of Defense Secretary's work when the appropriations process comes. 474 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 2: Today, the House has. 475 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 1: Released a budget that actually gives more money than even 476 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: the Trump administration recommended, probably assigned of confidence of what 477 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 1: you guys are doing today. 478 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 6: Absolutely, and we maintain great relationships with everybody on the Hill. 479 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 6: We're frequently in contact with our HASK and SASK members, 480 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 6: making sure that everybody is up to date on all 481 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 6: the great work that we're doing here. And as President 482 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 6: Trump said, this is a huge, historic, one trillion dollar 483 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,879 Speaker 6: budget that the Department of War was given through the 484 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 6: one big, beautiful bill.

Well. 553 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 1: In Amanda's old home state of California, a person leaves 554 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 1: every two minutes. 555 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: Think about that. 556 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 1: The great Blue flight has begun in all of these 557 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,360 Speaker 1: high cost, high tax high regulation states. 558 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:10,960 Speaker 2: And it doesn't seem like it's subsiding. 559 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: In fact, more and more red states are gaining from 560 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 1: the demise of blue states. Joining us now to discuss 561 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: this dynamic is the executive vice president at the National 562 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: Taxpayers Union, Our good friend, Branda. 563 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,119 Speaker 2: Good to have you on the show. Thanks so much 564 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 2: for having me. Ah, we love having you on. 565 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: We always get a healthy dose of common. 566 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 2: Sense when we talk to you. 567 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: You would think at this point that this would be 568 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: an existential issue for blue state governors, the Gavin Newsoms 569 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: and the Witmers and others, but in fact they seem 570 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: to be completely oblivious it is dynamic, or not willing 571 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: to address it. 572 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 2: What's up with that? 573 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, it's pretty unbelievable. When somebody is leaving your state 574 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 9: every two minutes, a little less than two minutes in 575 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 9: the case of California, in just over two minutes in 576 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 9: the case of New York, you would think you would 577 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 9: reevaluate how you're running your state, look at your taxes, 578 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 9: look at your spending, look at all your regulatory policies. 579 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 9: But it doesn't seem to be the case. You know, 580 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 9: they elected Mandani in New York City. We can't really 581 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 9: expect much in the way of pro growth tax reform 582 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 9: I think from that administration. And in California, they're batting 583 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 9: around the idea of a wealth tax, which would only 584 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 9: further push wealthier residents out of California to those low 585 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 9: tax states like Texas, Florida, Tennessee, the Carolinas, all of 586 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 9: which are picking up residents at a break neck pace, 587 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 9: matching the demise of these big blue states that don't 588 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 9: seem to know how to get their ducks in a row. 589 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 5: Pretty wild Brandon. 590 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 7: Numerous times in the past, President Trump has flirted with 591 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 7: the notion of no income tax, and I just saw 592 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 7: Chad Bianca, one of the candidates for governor in California, 593 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 7: floated the notion of removing the state income tax in California, 594 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 7: I know, is very popular among Republicans, But in a 595 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 7: blue state like California, does that matter to liberals because 596 00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 7: it kind of seems like they want. 597 00:29:58,720 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 5: To be taxed. 598 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 9: Well, it's smart on one level here, because you look 599 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 9: at these states that are attracting residents and attracting businesses, 600 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 9: many of them have no income tax Texas, Florida, Tennessee, 601 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 9: just to name. 602 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 2: A couple of them. 603 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,719 Speaker 9: But they also have actually lowered their spending considerably. You 604 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 9: look at a state like Florida, They're spending less than 605 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 9: half of what New York spends on a per person basis. 606 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 2: So if you. 607 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 9: Drive down the spending, that gives you the fiscal space 608 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 9: that allows you to lower taxes. If you simply lower 609 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 9: taxes without making those spending cuts as well, you create 610 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 9: huge budget problems, enormous deficits that you can't resolve, so 611 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 9: that it has to lead with the spending, and then 612 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 9: those lower taxes can follow suits. There's a lot of 613 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 9: work to do in Sacramento, a. 614 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: Lot of work to be done in Washington as well. 615 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: And Republicans have been charging you. I mean, they take 616 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 1: a little bit out of the budget couple hundred billion 617 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: over ten years, but barely a drop in the bucket 618 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: for the deficits and debt that we're accumulating. Do you 619 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: see any major move before the election year twenty six 620 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: for Republicans to get spending under control? Are we just 621 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: wasted another two year cycle? 622 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 7: Well? 623 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 10: I sure hope. 624 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 9: So I've been on the hill better part of today 625 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 9: talk to a number of member of Congress who are very, 626 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 9: very upset with the state of our nation's fiscal health 627 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 9: right now, and who want to do something about it 628 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 9: in a meaningful way. There is considerable talk about doing 629 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 9: another round of reconciliation, this budgetary tool that Republicans can 630 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 9: pass independently, they wouldn't need Democratic votes at all. A 631 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 9: lot of that focus, of course, has been on healthcare, 632 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 9: with all of this talk about the Obamacare premium tax 633 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 9: credits that will hopefully be shot down this week. But 634 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 9: in addition to that, there is some additional talk about 635 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 9: addressing our budget deficits. The thirty eight trillion dollars in 636 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 9: counting national debt that we have is an enormous problem. 637 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 9: It's going to drag down our economic growth for generations 638 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 9: to come if we don't do something about it. And 639 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 9: I do think there is a willingness, particularly amongst more 640 00:31:54,200 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 9: conservative members of the House, to start tackling this enormous problem. 641 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 7: It's absolutely so Brandon, as you wisely points it out. 642 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,959 Speaker 7: It is the red states with low or no income 643 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 7: tax that people are flocking to. Something else that would 644 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 7: be incredibly I mean, this would just be a galvanic 645 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 7: shift in Washington is wiping out the income tax. I 646 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 7: know President Trump likes to throw that out there. It's 647 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 7: red meat for his base. But what would that even 648 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 7: look like? Is it even feasible? 649 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 9: Is not feasible? 650 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 2: Right now? 651 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 9: Again, we're running deficits on an annual basis that are 652 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 9: about two trillion dollars. It was just under two trillion 653 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 9: dollars for the fiscal year that just ended. It'll probably 654 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 9: be over two trillion dollars unless we can make some 655 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 9: serious cuts going forward here, So that even includes the 656 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 9: tariff revenue. I do think that tariff revenue could increase, 657 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 9: but we'll see what happens at the Supreme Court in 658 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 9: the next couple weeks here, maybe a couple months there. 659 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 9: But even if you're talking about hundreds of billions of 660 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 9: dollars in tariff revenue which we could end up receiving, 661 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 9: you're at the same time talking about an income tax 662 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 9: that brings in about two point seven trillion dollars two 663 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 9: point seven trillion dollars. So the notion that we can 664 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 9: offset that two point seven trillion dollar loss with a 665 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 9: few hundred million, a few hundred billion dollars, I should say, 666 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 9: in tariff revenue, that leaves a pretty sizable gap there 667 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 9: that we would need to address. Again with enormous spending cuts, 668 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 9: which sign me up for. But realistically speaking, it's going 669 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 9: to take a herculean task to make those kinds of 670 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 9: changes in Washington. 671 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, even though there's quite a roadmap that GEO is 672 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: given us plenty of places where we could slice and 673 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,920 Speaker 1: dice save some money. Before we let you go, Brandon, 674 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: I want to ask a little bit about the phenomenon 675 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: of affordability, because on some things like housing, the federal 676 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: government actually isn't the primary driver of the. 677 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 2: Cost of housing. 678 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: It's those regulatory demands like what we've seen in California, 679 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: which has made it impossible for people the Palisades fire 680 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: victims to even rebuild on the land they own. How 681 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: do we tackle the local regulation strength hold on our 682 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: housing market. 683 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very good question. 684 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 9: Because the zoning issues have become enormously problematic at the 685 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 9: local level. There are things that that can be done 686 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 9: by the Congress. That is, for instance, using grants that 687 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 9: go from the Congress, go from the federal government two municipalities, 688 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 9: two localities to actually require them to open up their 689 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:18,240 Speaker 9: zoning if they want to receive money from the federal government. 690 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 9: They have to be less restrictive when it comes to 691 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 9: zoning laws. That would make a huge difference in the 692 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 9: way that we construct homes. That's not the only thing 693 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 9: that we can do, but I think fixing the zoning laws, 694 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 9: as you point out, would go a long long way, 695 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 9: along with hopefully lower interest rates. And we've already seen 696 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 9: interest rates start to dip, not nearly to the level 697 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 9: of where we were in the pandemic, but moving in 698 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 9: a positive direction, and that's really good news for the 699 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 9: housing market and for perspective owned home buyers as well. 700 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, lower debt would also give us some lower interest rates, 701 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: something that we could also work on with the government. 702 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: Be pretty impressive, Brandon, It's always an honor to have 703 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 1: you on. What's the best way for folks to stay 704 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: in touch with all the great work that you do 705 00:34:58,600 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 1: at the National Taxpayers Union. 706 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 9: Well, our website is NTOU dot org for National Taxpayer Union. 707 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 9: We're all over social media, Facebook, X, you name it, 708 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 9: so please check us out. 709 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: I've been reading it for two decades. It's such an 710 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: important sight. Good to have you on, Brandon, Thanks for 711 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 1: joining us us. 712 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 2: Thank you to you both. Good stuff. 713 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, all right, folks, coming up next to the 714 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: Democrat Party is swinging further left, and a new report 715 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,720 Speaker 1: says if trends continue, they'll have a majority democratic socialist 716 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 1: wing of the party by twenty thirty. 717 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 2: That'll be in Congress. Of course, what's that mean. We'll 718 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 2: get to that next right after. 719 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 7: These messages, Welcome back everybody to just the news no noise. 720 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 7: This past November, we saw the Democrat Party win some 721 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 7: major elections in New York, Virginia, New Jersey. Obviously those 722 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 7: are pretty reliably blue states. 723 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:53,919 Speaker 5: It's still worrying though. 724 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 7: For example, the mayor of the biggest city in the 725 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 7: United States, New York, of course, is going to be 726 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 7: Zorn Mamdanni come year. And he's a self described Democrat socialist, 727 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 7: and Democrats are not scared of using the word socialists 728 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,760 Speaker 7: anymore to describe themselves. And that's not the only troubling 729 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 7: thing going on in the Democrat Party either, because we're 730 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 7: seeing the rise of anti Semitic rhetoric and even policy 731 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 7: from candidates and officeholders alike. And if these trends continue, 732 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 7: one group says we may see a democratic socialist majority 733 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 7: among the Democrats in Congress by twenty thirty. 734 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 5: Think about what that might mean. So joining us now. 735 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 7: To discuss this is the CEO of the Israeli American 736 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 7: Civic Action Network, Dylan Hosier. Mister Hosier, Dylan, great. 737 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 10: To see you, Amanda John Thanks for having me. 738 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 2: Good to be with you. 739 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 7: All right, terrifying prospect for New Yorkers come January first, 740 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:47,799 Speaker 7: when Momdani officially becomes mayor is there any recourse for 741 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 7: New York after if he just serves one term, or 742 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 7: is the damage just going to be too great? 743 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 10: So first and foremost, I think we need to send 744 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 10: a message very clear that we need to pay closer 745 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 10: attention to state and local government in general. The issue 746 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 10: with Mombani being in office may not be him in particular, 747 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 10: but it may be the people that he chooses to 748 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 10: put into certain positions. We've already seen significant appointments that 749 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 10: are radical, that represent certainly not the mainstream of America. 750 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 10: So I'm less concerned with him as a central actor 751 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 10: and more concerned with the commissioners and other people that 752 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 10: he will put in place that maybe people won't be 753 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 10: looking at, that may have power and authority over key 754 00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 10: decisions and that could have a lasting impact. So I 755 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 10: think that this administration, depending how he executes, and depending 756 00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 10: how the city council tries to check his power to 757 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 10: check the things that he's intending to do, could have 758 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 10: a major impact moving forward on the city of New York. 759 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 2: So amazing. 760 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 1: I want to talk a little bit about the education gap. 761 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 1: It's clear to me that most young voters who are 762 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 1: leaning towards socialism don't truly understand that. They may not 763 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: even have the context understand how Venezuela went from being 764 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: the second richest country in our hemisphere to literally an 765 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: annex of Cuba. How do we get young people who 766 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: deprived of that education in school the detail so they 767 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 1: can understand the evils of socialism. 768 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 10: Or you're asked, that's a big question. I think the 769 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 10: big challenge that we're seeing now in K through twelve 770 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 10: is that the teachers' unions have really politicized our schools. 771 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 10: So this is what we're seeing through whether it's an 772 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 10: ethnic studies curriculum or even just history or social studies 773 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 10: in English classes, we are seeing this kind of radicalism 774 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 10: in our public schools. It's being funded by taxpayers, and actually, 775 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 10: you know, it's really interesting. We're seeing a lot of 776 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 10: teachers looking to get into politics. Looking to actually get 777 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 10: into elected office. And so, you know, the problem of 778 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 10: education in our youth isn't just that you know that 779 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 10: the curriculum isn't good or anything else. It's just to 780 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 10: us to our mind, the big issue is that teachers 781 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,960 Speaker 10: are using their positions of power and authority in the 782 00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 10: classroom to indoctrinate these kids to push this this fringe curriculum. Again, 783 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 10: ethnic studies is one of the major ones, and we're 784 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 10: seeing these people then go to Sacramento, go to Boston, 785 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 10: go to Albany, and at these state capitals and push 786 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 10: this fringe agenda. So I think that we really have 787 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 10: to start at the state capitals, also start in our 788 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,800 Speaker 10: local governments as well, looking at our school board members 789 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,240 Speaker 10: and making sure that we get the right people in. Otherwise, 790 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 10: it's it's you know, these I hate to say it, 791 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:47,120 Speaker 10: but these schools are becoming centers of indoctrination rather than education. 792 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 10: So it's a huge issue. 793 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,919 Speaker 7: All right, Dylan, I want to talk about this mom 794 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 7: Donnie index. 795 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 5: What are some of the. 796 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 7: Metrics that you consider when you give a score and 797 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 7: are you concerned that the mom Donnie mold is some 798 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 7: thing that others are going to try to propagate and 799 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 7: more races across the country. 800 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 10: So thank you. So the mom Dying Index is a 801 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 10: tool that we created to essentially assess state and local 802 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 10: candidates on their issues on the issues related to items 803 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 10: that we work on as an organization. So that is 804 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 10: things like the US relationship with the State of Israel. 805 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,720 Speaker 10: That is their position of what I just talked about 806 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 10: with regard to ethnic studies, which by the way, most 807 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,480 Speaker 10: people don't understand what that even is. People don't understand 808 00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:38,399 Speaker 10: and ethnic studies is not a cultural competency or you know, 809 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 10: it's not even the study of ethnicities. This is the 810 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,319 Speaker 10: promotion of certain doctrines and ideologies in our classrooms. So 811 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 10: that K through twelve, that education piece, it may not 812 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 10: appear to have a foreign policy component, but it is 813 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:54,880 Speaker 10: actually being used to promote major anti Israel and frankly 814 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 10: anti American content, So that that K through twelve measure 815 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 10: with ethnic studies is a major issue that we're tracking. 816 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 10: Also things like the Abraham Accords, which you know that 817 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 10: people they say they want peace, they say they want 818 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 10: cease fires, and they want Gosins for example, to live 819 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 10: in peace, and other Arab and Islamic societies to live 820 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 10: in peace, but they don't support the Abraham Accords. It 821 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 10: doesn't make sense. So there's a whole range of issues 822 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 10: that we measure these people on. We've done five states 823 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 10: with this Mamdani indeck so far. We've rated six hundred 824 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 10: and eighty three candidates in the past sorry public officials 825 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,960 Speaker 10: who are now in the state legislators. Now in these 826 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:38,040 Speaker 10: five states, out of six hundred and eighty three state legislators, 827 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 10: seventy of them, about ten percent are on the Mamdani scale, 828 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 10: So that's not a good thing. Now, on the bride side, 829 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,280 Speaker 10: we see a lot of people who are very pro 830 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,400 Speaker 10: who are are still with us. So the on balance, 831 00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 10: there's a lot of people in the state and local 832 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 10: levels who are still pro America pro Israel. But there 833 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 10: is a growing and I would even say surging popularly 834 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,839 Speaker 10: of DSA style candidates that are following exactly the Mom 835 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 10: Donnie mold, and there are some who are even trying 836 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 10: to outdo Mom Donnie. So I think that'll be the 837 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 10: interesting thing that we see in twenty twenty six. 838 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: The counter offensive for some of the anti semitism and 839 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 1: hatred in America continues to happen mostly in the States. Obviously, 840 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: President Trump's had a really profound effect in the universities. 841 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 1: But just about an hour ago, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis 842 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 1: designated the Muslim Brotherhood in CARE as terrorist organizations that 843 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: are state law. Following Texas, President Trump actually call just 844 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,320 Speaker 1: the News and told us he was designating the Muslim 845 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 1: Brotherhood at the federal level. This counter offensive pretty important, 846 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: not only as an education but in giving tools to 847 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:43,240 Speaker 1: combat these groups going forward. 848 00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 10: Correct absolutely, look the fact that these groups like CARE, 849 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 10: the Council for American Islamic Relations have five O one 850 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 10: C three and five ON one C four status, although 851 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 10: there are C four status is being a question now. 852 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,480 Speaker 10: A new report actually just came out from the NCRI, 853 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 10: the National the Research for National Contagion Research Institute sorry NCR, 854 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 10: just put out a report challenging their C four status. 855 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 10: So there is a lot to look at with CARE. 856 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,240 Speaker 10: I will tell you that we're based here in Los Angeles, 857 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 10: in the state of California, and CARE is a really 858 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 10: caustic actor in our local and state politics, constantly pushing 859 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 10: fringe policies, and frankly, the scary thing that Americans should 860 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,839 Speaker 10: know is that and this is the message I want 861 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 10: everybody to at home listening to tonight to kind of internalize, 862 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,319 Speaker 10: if you're a pro Israel American, there is no one 863 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 10: at the state and local level advocating for your views. 864 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 10: There is no organization out there that is representing your perspective. 865 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 10: Now there is an organization out there representing the opposite view, 866 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 10: and that's Care, and CARE is fighting to put people 867 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 10: in public office who go against in my view, in 868 00:43:57,040 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 10: my opinion, go against American values, and certainly go against 869 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,879 Speaker 10: the important special relationship that we have between the United 870 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 10: States and Israel. So I think we look at Care 871 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 10: as a major issue, and we applaud the states of 872 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 10: Texas and Florida, and we look forward to the President's 873 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 10: plan being implemented and executed at the federal level. 874 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 7: And Dylan, before we let you go, if you are 875 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 7: a Jewish American and we're an Israeli American, is there 876 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 7: a place for you in the Democrat Party anymore? 877 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,359 Speaker 10: So I'm glad you said that because I think it's 878 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 10: important for people to know that even though I am 879 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 10: the CEO of the Israeli American Civic Action Network and 880 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 10: I'm the founder, i am neither Israeli nor Jewish. Frankly, 881 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 10: and I'll say this too, I am a registered Democrat 882 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,839 Speaker 10: here in the state of California, and I don't think 883 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 10: there is a place for Jewish people or Israeli Americans 884 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 10: and the Democratic Party at all. Frankly, I don't think 885 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 10: there's any place for normal Americans in the party. The 886 00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 10: only reason I'm staying in the party is so that 887 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:59,760 Speaker 10: we can challenge these viewpoints and you have a voice 888 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 10: and push back. But increasingly I don't think there's place 889 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,280 Speaker 10: for any normal thinking American in the Democratic Party. 890 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 2: Now. 891 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's been scary to see Dylan Hoes, your CEO 892 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 7: of the Israeli American Civic Action Network. 893 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:14,400 Speaker 5: Thanks so much for being with us tonight. 894 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 2: Thank you so much. Good to see you. 895 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 7: Absolutely all right, everybody. Next, we're going to get to 896 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,760 Speaker 7: some of the questions that I asked President Trump earlier 897 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 7: today at the White House. We're gonna relive it will 898 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 7: be back, Welcome back, everybody. A really exciting day today 899 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 7: at the White House. John, you know, I was in 900 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 7: that roundtable with President Trump, and of course you had 901 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 7: Director Kevin Hasset, you had Secretary Bessett, you had a 902 00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,880 Speaker 7: gaggle of members of Congress and senators, but you also 903 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 7: had farmers from Arkansas, from Iowa, from I mean, every 904 00:45:58,040 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 7: state it seemed like was represented, even though that's not 905 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 7: possible because they were only twenty or so of them. 906 00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 7: But it was really wonderful to hear their perspective. A 907 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:08,399 Speaker 7: Rice farmer, Merrill Kennedy, was sitting to President Trump's left 908 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 7: and hearing the plight, hearing what they experienced under Joe 909 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 7: Biden and also now what they are experiencing with the tariff. 910 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 7: So President Trump is obviously trying to extend them a 911 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,200 Speaker 7: lifeline along with Secretary Brookrawl's twelve billion dollars an aid 912 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 7: package for them that I can't believe this. So the 913 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 7: checks will be delivered in February, but by the end 914 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 7: of this month so that they can plan accordingly. They 915 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 7: will know how much they will be given for, you know, 916 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 7: as far as stimulus for their own farms. But I 917 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 7: ask President Trump because there's been so much chatter about affordability, 918 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,240 Speaker 7: and Republicans Americans in general are not feeling that things 919 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 7: are getting more affordable other than gas and then of 920 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 7: course eggs. But I asked President Trump because I said, 921 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 7: I well, let's just watch it interest of affordability with 922 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 7: this aid package, I assume that that's something you want 923 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 7: consumers to see before midterms next year. How quickly will 924 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 7: that affect prices at the grocery store. 925 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 8: Well, I think the prices are going to be going 926 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 8: down already. 927 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 2: I mean, the price is are way down. 928 00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 8: We've brought prices way down from what it was. 929 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 4: We inherited high prices. 930 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 8: We inherited the biggest inflation in the history of our country. 931 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 8: That means prices going up, and we brought it down 932 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,439 Speaker 8: very substantially. Now, inflation is essentially God. 933 00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 7: You know, President Trump. Everything President Trump does is calculated 934 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 7: and sequential. He knows exactly what it looks like. 935 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 5: And so I think that absolutely. 936 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 7: And I think this affordability is going to hit just 937 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 7: about the beginning of spring and maybe the beginning of sun. 938 00:47:36,280 --> 00:47:37,759 Speaker 7: So it's going to be interesting to see, all right. 939 00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 7: I also asked President Trump because this was kind of 940 00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 7: blended with the Maha movement, because as all of us 941 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 7: learn more and more about what we're putting in our bodies, 942 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 7: we're also learning about how a lot of things like 943 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:49,799 Speaker 7: soybeans that they were talking about at the early part 944 00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 7: of this roundtable. How they are so much more low 945 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 7: quality when they come from other countries. And it's not 946 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,839 Speaker 7: just that, it's other produce as well. 947 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:00,359 Speaker 5: So I asked the president be a. 948 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 11: Foreign produce, you spoke about slotheans and how the quality 949 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:06,919 Speaker 11: here in the United States obviously is a lot better. Yeah, 950 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 11: is the default of this administration, because that's an issue 951 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 11: I understand with root vegetables, citrus as well. Is the 952 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 11: default of this administration that even if it's more a 953 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 11: little bit more expensive homegrown, you will choose homegrown over 954 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 11: cheaper produce abroad. 955 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 4: I like homegrown. 956 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 8: You know, some things we can't grow because we don't 957 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 8: have the heat. There's some things, you know, little delicacies 958 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 8: or maybe not such delicacies, but they grow better in 959 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 8: a warmer climate. It's very warm climates actually. But for 960 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:35,719 Speaker 8: the most part, I like. 961 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 7: Homegrown, and the President's right, John, there are some things avocados. 962 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 7: I know, we get a lot of avocados from Mexico 963 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:44,240 Speaker 7: because they. 964 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 5: Just grow better down there. 965 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 7: And you know, and so President Trave's obviously that is 966 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,840 Speaker 7: worked into President Trump's trade deals with these other nations. 967 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 1: I was really struck by the farmers understanding that even 968 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 1: whether there's a temper aid problem the program that they're having, 969 00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 1: that they ununderstand that these new deals that he's opened up. 970 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 2: We're going to open up mass new markets for them. 971 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,319 Speaker 1: It's interesting because none of that gets through in the 972 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 1: reporting in the mainstream media, but it does get through 973 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: in places like Real America's Voice justin news. 974 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 2: They get it. 975 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 1: They know what's coming down the pike, and they're willing 976 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 1: to wait it out with the President. That was the 977 00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: most interesting sentiment I picked up. 978 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:17,799 Speaker 5: Think came from here. 979 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 7: Meryl Kennedy, who is a rice farmer in Louisiana, was 980 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,240 Speaker 7: sitting next to him, and President Trump asked her point blank, 981 00:49:23,400 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 7: if your business is suffering, why is what countries are responsible? 982 00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:30,839 Speaker 7: She said, India, Thailand, and China through uh Puerto Rico. 983 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 7: So she came and President Trump said, I'm ready to 984 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:35,399 Speaker 7: make stuff. 985 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 5: Halpen. 986 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 7: He turned around to Secretary vest and said, write that 987 00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 7: down and make. 988 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 5: Sure you include it. 989 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 2: What an amazing here.
