That's right, 12 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: socialists and communists on our own ground organizing protests that 13 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: are then amplified by the Chinese government. After the operation 14 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: to captain Madurell, three protests opposing the arrests were quickly 15 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: organized in places like New York City elsewhere by the 16 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: Marxist revolutionary group known as the People's Forum, the far 17 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: left anti war group you know them, Code Pink, Remember them, 18 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: and the leftists Act Now to stop war and End 19 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: Racism and the Party for Socialism and Liberation. It's four 20 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: groups that we're all been tracking here at just the 21 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: News over the last several years. They're radical activist groups 22 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: and now they seem to be more aligned with socialist 23 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: dictators than the American people. 24 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 2: So we'll keep you up to data and that. 25 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: Remember, one of the Marxist businessman's Neville Roy Singham, is 26 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: one of the funders of some of those groups, and 27 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: he of course has connections to the CCP.

What it's going to be very 37 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: familiar to our viewers here at justin News and Real 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 1: America's Voice wide. We started with Minnesota eighteen months ago, 39 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 1: but recently we began investigating California and today yet the 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: President wrote on his truth social platform that a fraud 41 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: investigation into California has begun. He didn't provide much more details, 42 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: but as you know, we chronicled over the last several 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: weeks how fake student registrations were filed at many California 44 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: colleges so that people can defraud student aid programs. There's 45 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: medicaid fraud, large amounts of medicaid fraud, Medicaid being improperly 46 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: used for illegal aliens, and of course the other welfare 47 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: forms of frauds that we've been talking about, things like 48 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: food stamps. That all comes in the wake of revelations 49 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: of the mass fraud that we uncovered in Minnesota more 50 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 1: than a year ago with the Somali expatriate community there. 51 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: And speaking of that, we're going to give you a 52 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: quick teaser for tomorrow. YEP, Tomorrow, when you wake up, 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: you can go to justinews dot com and get the 54 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: details on this. The Transportation Security Administration tracked more than 55 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: nearly seven hundred million dollars in cash in suitcases. I'm 56 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: not making this episis cash that was in luggage and 57 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: it was going through the Minneapolis airport headed overseas. Most 58 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: of the people moving the cash were Somali cash couriers. 59 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: TSA said they didn't have any power to stop it 60 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: because the people properly declared all this cash in their suitcases, 61 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: chose a gap in our current legal system for tracking 62 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: money that's being exported out of the country. But now 63 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: that money, those couriers, that entire system being investigated by 64 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: the Homeland Security Investigations Unit. We'll have all the details 65 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: for you tomorrow morning at justinnews dot com. And with that, 66 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to turn to my mighty and amazing co host, 67 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: Amanda head Amanda Headlines, are you checking on today? 68 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: Well? 69 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 4: John, First of all, we went from palettes of cash 70 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 4: with Barack Obama's and our suitcases. 71 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: And cash walls. It's such a great updide. 72 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, So I want to start with a question, 73 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 4: what on earth is happening in America's big cities. 74 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: Whatever it is, I can assure you it is not good. 75 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 3: So let me explain. 76 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 4: As part of New York City Mayor's are on Mom 77 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 4: Donnie's housing agenda, Mayor Mom Donnie. 78 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 3: Appointed Seal Weaver. 79 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 4: She is a tenant advocate and she is now the 80 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 4: director of the newly revitalized Mayor's Office to protect tenants. 81 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 4: At least that's what it is. Call that's what we 82 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 4: have been led to believe is the purpose. However, the 83 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 4: reality appears to be much more troubling. Mom Donnie's housing 84 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 4: agenda seems to resemble a communist takeover, intending to strip 85 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 4: away landlords rights to their property in some circumstances. 86 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 5: Take a look a couple of days ago one of 87 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,679 Speaker 5: the most notorious slum lords in the city. 88 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 6: His name is Oak Shalom. 89 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 5: He was arrested because he is treating his tenants so 90 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 5: badly hundreds of thousands of open code violations. In cases 91 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 5: like that, where the city is actively pursuing already sort 92 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 5: of litigation and enforcement mechanisms against the landlord, the SHDA 93 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 5: is an option. We can say, hey, you know you 94 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 5: are not maintaining this building, and we are the City 95 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 5: of New York. We have an interest in making sure 96 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 5: that housing is well maintained, and we're going to take 97 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:09,799 Speaker 5: this building away from. 98 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 3: You, oh, seizing property. 99 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 4: Okay, So that seems a little less like trying to 100 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 4: create affordable housing and more like looking for ways to 101 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 4: acquire properties through some pretty savvy legal loopholes. That's the 102 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 4: difference between democrats like mom Donnie and Weaver and President Trump. 103 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 4: Some Democrats want to create a pseudo utopia where they 104 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 4: strip away the rights of Americans in the name of 105 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 4: the quality. President Trump wants to create affordable housing by 106 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 4: growing the housing sector and building new homes. And unfortunately 107 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 4: there's more here. We have Coo Weaver again discussing home ownership. Now, 108 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 4: you would think that she would talk about how much 109 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 4: easier it would be for New Yorkers to pursue the 110 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 4: dream of home ownership thanks to Mom Donnie's housing agenda. 111 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 4: Oh no, Instead, she somehow twists the narrative of home 112 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 4: ownership into a discussion about what, oh yeah, racism and. 113 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 7: Classism, democratic we controlled the public Housing is really important. 114 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 6: And that's why when Rachael is talking. 115 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 7: About the communities and that she's describing that, you know, 116 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 7: deaths tell as a created community where the people who 117 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 7: are living there are like setting the agenda. And so, 118 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 7: you know, people like home ownership but has say like control, 119 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 7: and that's been perverted by like deep racism and deep. 120 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 6: Classism in our society. 121 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 5: So like we have to not have a racist in 122 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 5: class of society. 123 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,679 Speaker 6: And so that's something we need to think about like deeply. 124 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 4: But you know, so according to miss Weaver, the only 125 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 4: way to eliminate racism and classism in society is to 126 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 4: strip landlords of their rights. But she argues that that 127 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 4: is why rent and control is so important, as it 128 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 4: shifts the power dynamics between renters and property owners. 129 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 3: But isn't that ironic? 130 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 4: You can't control your own property because that is racist, 131 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 4: of course, But when communists have control. 132 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 3: It is it's for your own good. Guys, we know 133 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 3: better where you're better? Is you, guys just a bunch 134 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 3: of leaves? You just sit there and let us take 135 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 3: your property. John, my goodness, what has New York City done? 136 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: The whole left has turned the world upside down. We 137 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: now think going after dictators is bad and blowing up 138 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: drug runners is bad. 139 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: Are good or bad? But bad? 140 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: They think that's a bad thing, And home ownership is bad. 141 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: But open borders and chaos and tyranny seems to be good. 142 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 4: So it's anti American because on top of taxation without representation, 143 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: another huge reason that our founders fought and divorced the 144 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 4: Crown was for home ownership and land ownership. 145 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 2: It's good, yeah, well it is absolutely insane. 146 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: Well, a guy who's pretty good at turning that upside 147 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: down world right side back up said it's the great 148 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 1: state of Colorado.

Yeah, it's good. It's a head scratcher. 162 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 2: How about that? All right? 163 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: I want to turn to something we just mentioned at 164 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: the top of the show. We are confirming and we'll 165 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: be able to report this a little bit that the 166 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: Transportation Security Administration flagged more than seven hundred million dollars 167 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: in cash that was in luggage moving out of Minneapolis 168 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: headed for Somali and other foreign destinations only from the 169 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: Minneapolis airport in the last two years. But their hands 170 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: were tied Basically, the law doesn't allow them to do anything. 171 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: If someone declares it. I just want to ask. 172 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 1: I know there's a lot of concern about the exodus 173 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: of cash by illegal immigrants and legal immigrants out of 174 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: the taking money out of the United States. Is Congress 175 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,439 Speaker 1: beginning to look at maybe reining that in or putting 176 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 1: some new regulations into place, or should they? 177 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, of course we should. We have to do it. 178 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 9: It's embarrassing that Congress hasn't done this before. These are 179 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 9: financial controls that any company would have on corporate money. 180 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 9: Any good company would have it. The board of directors 181 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 9: would fire them if they didn't. I don't know why 182 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 9: in the world we wouldn't have those kinds of controls. 183 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 9: But you know, that's the problem with big government. When 184 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 9: you're spending other people's money, you know, it becomes easy, 185 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 9: I guess, to just think it's okay to do that. 186 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 9: We've got folks right now saying, well, we don't want 187 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 9: to share our books. We don't want to open our 188 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 9: books and show you what show the federal government. What's 189 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 9: you know, being done with some of these fraud cases 190 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 9: and things. Boloney, This is the federal government. These are 191 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 9: taxpayer dollars. You know, we're asking people in my home 192 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 9: state of Colorado to send in their hard earned money 193 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 9: and fund something in Minnesota or some other state. We 194 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 9: better have better control over that money. And I think 195 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 9: it's the tip of the iceberg. 196 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: This is going to be an. 197 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 9: Unfolding scan well, not just in Minnesota, but I think 198 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 9: we're going to see fraud has been rampant in the 199 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 9: system for many years. 200 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 3: I think you're right, Congressman. 201 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 4: I want to shift to the news of the day Venezuela. 202 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 4: There are, of course plenty of Democrats out there criticizing 203 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 4: President Trump for something that a year ago, if done 204 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 4: under Joe Biden, they would have praised it, but also 205 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 4: Republicans who claim that this is not America First. But 206 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 4: something that I am sensing from President Trump and this 207 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 4: administration is that, unlike those who criticize our involvement in 208 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 4: foreign wars, obviously in OIF and OEF decades long conflicts, 209 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 4: President Trump gets in and out. It is precision, accuracy, 210 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 4: and striking, and just like with Iran, Venezuela, we didn't 211 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 4: even know what was happening hardly before it was over. 212 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 4: Does that seem like the most effective plan going forward 213 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 4: that he's shown so far thus administ in his administration 214 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 4: for handling any other conflicts that come about. 215 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think I think it's surprising sometimes to people 216 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 9: on the left that Donald Trump seems to not want 217 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 9: to use force, even though he has. Obviously in Iran, 218 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 9: we saw him do what was the right thing there, 219 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 9: and I think he's done the right thing in Venezuela 220 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 9: as well. But I think his natural reaction is to 221 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 9: not get us involved in these kinds of wars. And 222 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 9: you know, he's kind of stuck no matter what he does. Right, 223 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 9: if he would have done nothing, they would say, well, 224 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 9: he's not done anything. Of course, if he would have 225 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 9: done what Obama and others have done and just go 226 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 9: in and kill Maduro, then they would be upset with that. 227 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 9: They'd all be threatening to, you know, impeach him again. 228 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 8: But what did he do? 229 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 9: He did this as a legal issue, right and went 230 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 9: in and affected an arrest warrant, right that was out 231 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 9: there for Maduro and his wife. I mean, I think 232 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 9: the President on this one is on very very solid 233 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 9: legal ground, really legal grounds in what he did. And look, 234 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,839 Speaker 9: if I'm a Democrat, do I do you ever do 235 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 9: you think they ever stop and think, gosh, maybe, let's see, 236 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 9: I'm on the same side as the Russians. 237 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 8: I'm on the same side as the Chinese. 238 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 9: I'm on the same side as these kookie socialists that 239 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,760 Speaker 9: run around protesting in America. Maybe I'm on the wrong 240 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 9: side of the issue. They don't seem to ever think that. 241 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 9: But the people that are on the right side of 242 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 9: this issue, most Republicans seem to be on the right 243 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 9: side of the issue. But the people of Venezuela, who 244 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 9: are on the right side of the issue they wanted 245 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 9: Maduro Goon. The people who are here in America from 246 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 9: Venezuela who had to get here because they were fleeing socialism, 247 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 9: They're on. 248 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,719 Speaker 8: The right side of this issue. I'm telling you. The 249 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 8: left is lunatic on where they ended up on this issue. 250 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're so disconnected from public sentiment. It's really remarkable. 251 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: I want to ask quickly about the President's speech to 252 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 1: the House GOP Caucus today. One of the things that 253 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: he mentioned that is something that we've all talked about on 254 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: the show a lot, an opportunity, once in a generation, 255 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,359 Speaker 1: opportunity to reform healthcare, to fix the failures of Obamacare, 256 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: the Unaffordable Care Act and talked about getting the insurance 257 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: out of the way and taking the money away from 258 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: insurans giving to the people. How was that received and 259 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,440 Speaker 1: how big an opportunity is there for Republicans to own 260 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: this issue ahead of the twenty twenty sixth election. 261 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 9: That's a great question, John, You know, that's something that 262 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 9: I think Republicans have in the past not stepped up 263 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 9: to because we felt like we didn't have the answer. 264 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 9: You know what, The answer is less government. The answer 265 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 9: is less government involvement in the decisions of doctors. The 266 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,440 Speaker 9: answer is not subsidizing big insurance companies. And the President's 267 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 9: exactly right. When Obamacare was written, it was written by 268 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 9: the insurance companies, really frankly, to screw the American people. 269 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 8: Let's just be honest. 270 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 9: These are subsidies going to these big insurance companies. Just 271 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 9: like Higher ED. When you subsidize higher ED, what do 272 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 9: you get rising costs? The same thing is happening in healthcare. 273 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 9: We should grab this moment and empower the American people. 274 00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 9: Just like we've done started to do an education with 275 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 9: school choice and other things, we should empower the American 276 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 9: people in healthcare to do that same thing to be 277 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 9: able to make the decisions for themselves in a more capitalist, 278 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 9: free market healthcare system, so that they can make those decisions, 279 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 9: drive down costs, increase transparency, and help get America healthy 280 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 9: again by fixing this broken system that is Obamacare. 281 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 4: Sir, before we let you go, I love having this 282 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 4: conversation about healthcare, but frankly, none of it matters if 283 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 4: elections are not clean and pure and lawful. And I 284 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 4: know President Trump spoke about that today with respect to 285 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 4: the Save Act. He is really really pushing House Republicans 286 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 4: to make sure that gets through. 287 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 3: What's the timeline you're seeing. 288 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, well, we've passed a voter ID law in the House. 289 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 9: We need to get it over to the Senate. The 290 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 9: Senate needs to act. I mean, this is such a 291 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 9: basic thing. I get asked all the time about elections. 292 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 9: There's one thing that cures it, and that's voter ID. 293 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 9: You know, whether people say I don't like mail, I 294 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 9: don't like this or that, Honestly, I don't care what 295 00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 9: you do. As long as someone has to show an 296 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 9: ID before they hand in a ballot, we should know 297 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 9: what that is. You have to know who's getting on 298 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 9: an airplane. You have to show an ID. 299 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 2: You know. 300 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 9: If you go, you know, to the bank to deposit 301 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 9: a check, they'll ask you for an ID. This is 302 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 9: crazy that we don't do it in elections. It is 303 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 9: the number one thing, and I think the American people 304 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 9: to them, it's just common sense. 305 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 8: The President talked about that a little bit today. 306 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 9: Most of these issues that we're talking about that the 307 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 9: President's been talking about are common sense issues that the 308 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 9: American people are demanding. 309 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it.

A not so happy day. 366 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 4: Unfortunately in the Reagan family, a lot of folks grieving 367 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:22,639 Speaker 4: in Central. 368 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 3: California right now, Michael. 369 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,439 Speaker 4: Reagan passing away at the age of eighty. But you 370 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 4: know what, Ronald Reagan and including his son Michael Reagan, 371 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 4: it is still such an incredible. 372 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 3: Legacy on this country. 373 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think you said it right. Legacy is absolutely 374 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 11: the word when you think about the way that Ronald 375 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 11: Reagan really kind of transformed America's path. We were going 376 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 11: down a path with the world that we didn't need 377 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 11: to be going down at all, where America was shrinking, 378 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 11: America was pulling back, and the world was a very 379 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 11: dangerous place. What President Reagan was able to do and 380 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 11: turn that around and make America great again. You know, 381 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 11: he was kind of the first president who really took 382 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 11: on that mantle. You know, it's obviously very sad to 383 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 11: kind of see Michael passing on, you know, and the 384 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 11: rest of that family, all the sacrifices that they made, 385 00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 11: you know, through President Reagan's term, you know that that 386 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 11: family really meant everything to the president. 387 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 3: Absolutely. I want to ask you about something. 388 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 4: You know, we talk about a time for sewing and 389 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 4: a time for reaping. 390 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 3: It's quite frankly biblical. 391 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 4: You spent five years in North Carolina as GOP chair 392 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 4: sewing and now you are reaping. For the first time ever, 393 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 4: North Carolina has more registered Republicans than Democrats, a huge accomplishment. 394 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 3: Kudos to you. Tell us about that dynamic shift and 395 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 3: what you see for the next election. 396 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 11: We're very excited about it. You know, when I took 397 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 11: over the state party chair in twenty nineteen, that delta 398 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 11: was four hundred and fifty thousand more Democrats than there 399 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 11: were Republicans. So today two thousand and seventy seven more 400 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 11: Republicans than Democrats. It's a huge shift over the course 401 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 11: of the last five six years. And it really comes 402 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 11: down to two things. One, President Trump. He put in 403 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 11: a common sense agenda and America First agenda, and North 404 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 11: Carolina voters that's what they want to see. They want 405 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 11: to see President Trump rebuild the economy, restore our borders, 406 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 11: and make sure that America's respected again around the world. 407 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 11: They also see what the Democrats have been running on 408 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 11: the fact that the Democrats are all about open borders, 409 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 11: inflationary spending a week in woke America, that's not where 410 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 11: they want to be. So we have seen a huge 411 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,360 Speaker 11: shift in Pennsylvania. We've seen a huge shift in Florida, 412 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 11: Ohio and other states, and now finally in North Carolina. 413 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 11: Very very excited that we actually have more independence and 414 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 11: more Republicans than Democrats here because that's where the Democratic 415 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,880 Speaker 11: Party and they're insane agenda has left him. 416 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 2: Really remarkable. 417 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: I want to ask a little bit about the man 418 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: you're running against, Roy Cooper, former governor. He's fond of 419 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: calling himself a moderate, but his rhetoric and his records 420 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 1: suggests he's a lot more to the left. In fact, 421 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 1: he couldn't embrace the arrest of or over the weekend. 422 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: He's been a big fan of Tim walt saying, find 423 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,600 Speaker 1: nice things about Tim Maltz. It's going to be a 424 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: chance for both North Carolina and America to see that 425 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: the guy who says he's a monyn might be quite 426 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: more liberal. What do you plan to do to make 427 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: that case? 428 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 11: Well, Roy Cooper is a card carrying member of the 429 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 11: woke mob, and he supported every single one of Joe 430 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 11: Biden's priorities. In fact, when Joe Biden fell off the 431 00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 11: debate stage against President Trump the very next morning, he 432 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 11: was in Raleigh, North Carolina, with Roy Cooper, who was saying, 433 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 11: this is the guy who's going to be president for 434 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 11: the next four years. Of course he signed on immediately 435 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 11: with Kamala Harris when when Biden got off the ticket. 436 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 11: You know, he has been absolutely supportive of that agenda, 437 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 11: that week agenda, that open borders agenda, that Woke America 438 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 11: agenda all the way through. This is a guy who 439 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 11: has vetoed legislation to keep woke out of schools, men 440 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 11: out of women's locker rooms, and boys out of girls sports. 441 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 11: He's vetoed bills to make sure that sheriffs are going 442 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 11: to honor detainers and get violent, criminal, illegal aliens out 443 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 11: of North Carolina. He signed an executive order to reimagine 444 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 11: law enforcement, created pre trial release and cashless bail and 445 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 11: a revolving door that put criminals on the streets again 446 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 11: and again and again. On every single eighty twenty issue, 447 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 11: he's on the twenty percent side along with Zorn, Mam 448 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 11: Donnie and Jasmine Crockett and the rest of the Democrat crazies. 449 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 11: It is remarkable to me that President Trump goes in 450 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 11: and uses a force delta force out of North Carolina 451 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:33,479 Speaker 11: to go in and take out Maduro, one of the 452 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 11: most violent, dangerous criminals in the Western hemisphere. And the 453 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 11: first thing that Roy Cooper does is criticize that and 454 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 11: criticize our troops. It's absolutely stunning that he's found another 455 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,720 Speaker 11: eighty twenty issue where he's going to camp on the 456 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 11: twenty percent side. 457 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 4: And we're seeing that so much with Democrats being on 458 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 4: the twenty side of an eighty twenty issue. I know 459 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 4: that you have thoughts on this Hilton situation, a property 460 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 4: in Minnesota that refused to accept DHS applications. Folks who 461 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 4: are coming there on the ground to investigate, they deserve 462 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 4: to have somewhere to stay. 463 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 3: Hilton apparently has. 464 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 4: Cut ties with this property, so that's good. 465 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 3: But what does this tell you. 466 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 4: About the mind virus of wokeness that apparently still exists, 467 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 4: even though the Trump administration is trying to get it 468 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: rooted out, at least on paper. 469 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 11: Well, it's absolutely appalling and it's completely unacceptable. The fact 470 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 11: is that we have men and women all across this 471 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,160 Speaker 11: country who are fighting every day to keep our kids 472 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 11: and our community safe. We need to back the blue, 473 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 11: We need to support them, We need to support the 474 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 11: men and women of the armed forces who are protecting 475 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,360 Speaker 11: our interests in our allies all around the world. And 476 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 11: it is stunning to me that the Democrats are applauding 477 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 11: Hilton for refusing those people. They're fighting against President Trump 478 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 11: for taking out Maduro. They're fighting against President Trump for 479 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 11: securing the border and preventing migrant crime and fentanyl from 480 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 11: coming into the United States. Absolutely, the highest prior for 481 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 11: any government is keeping our kids in our community safe. 482 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 11: And the Democrats absolutely are working harder right now, including 483 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 11: Roy Cooper, to defend the criminals than they are their 484 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 11: own citizens. 485 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 2: Really remarkable. 486 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 4: I know. 487 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: North Carolina may not be on the face of a 488 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 1: border state as a ways from the border, but it 489 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: suffered money discourages they came across with the b open 490 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: border of Joe Biden, drugs and sex trafficking and human trafficking. 491 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: It seems as though North Carolinas must see a different 492 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 1: experience now they saw the President react to what went 493 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: on in Charlotte. Do North Carolinians are they starting to 494 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: feel the downstream effect of having that border closed and 495 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: all of these illegal aliens being rounded up and sent 496 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 1: out of the country. 497 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 11: They really are, you know, and we had a recent 498 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 11: attack where an illegal alien stabb demand on the light 499 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 11: rail car and Charlotte, you know, we need to go 500 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 11: ahead and make sure that we get them out there. 501 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 11: The sheriff of Mecklenburg County and other major sheriffs are 502 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 11: doing everything they can to fight ice. They are not 503 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 11: honoring those ICE detainers. And Roy Cooper, my opponent, actually 504 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 11: vetoed legislation that would force those sheriffs to have to 505 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,679 Speaker 11: honor the ICE detainers. You know, we did see some 506 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 11: good news recently that fentanyl deaths are down dramatically since 507 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 11: President Trump shut down that border and shut down the 508 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 11: flow of fentanyl and microcrime into the United States. President 509 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 11: Trump has made it very clear he is not going 510 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 11: to allow international drug dealers to put our communities at risk, 511 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 11: and he's going to work every single day to keep 512 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 11: America safe. 513 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 3: So important, Michael. 514 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 4: We hear time and time again that these midterms this 515 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 4: is going to. 516 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:42,959 Speaker 3: Be about affordability. 517 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 4: The American people are not yet feeling a lot of 518 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 4: the policies that President Trump instituted last year, but I 519 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 4: imagine that's going to. 520 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 3: Be turning pretty soon. 521 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 4: But are you hearing from your constituents, from your potential 522 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,679 Speaker 4: constituents that that's something that's on the forefront of their minds. 523 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,480 Speaker 11: It is number one issue.

You know, I'm going to fight with 533 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 11: President Trump every single day to create jobs, to give 534 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 11: bigger bay Bit bigger paychecks, and to make sure that 535 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 11: we're lowering costs. 536 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 2: So important. 537 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, Michael, before we let you go, I have to 538 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 4: ask you, because you were the mastermind in last year 539 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 4: at the RNC, you talked about the election integrity issues, 540 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 4: that get out the vote effort that was absolutely explosive. 541 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 4: It was too big to rig for these midterms.

The President and Chijingping made a deal 621 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,479 Speaker 12: that the Chinese would finally start to tempt down on this. 622 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 12: It's just going to be a shell game. It will 623 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 12: be another source making these chemicals. India has become highly 624 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 12: questionable sources as a fallback for these cartels to include 625 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 12: Chinese criminal entities, the triads. But the cartels are moving 626 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 12: this and they're mixing it and say in Mexico or 627 00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 12: they're shipping it into the United States, and then they're 628 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 12: gangs that are here are. 629 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 13: Then fabricating the final parts of fentanyl. 630 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 12: Same network, same criminal enterprise cocaine. That's a six hundred 631 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 12: and eighty six hundred and ninety billion dollar trade. The 632 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 12: last time that the UN and A report actually let 633 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 12: it out back in twenty nineteen. So that's one element 634 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 12: that's just the cocaine comes out of out of Colombia. 635 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,920 Speaker 13: We also know that one of the ports that were. 636 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 12: Attacked was an eln a narco cartel communist guerrilla group 637 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 12: that had safe haven in Venezuela that was attacked. 638 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 13: I guess just a few weeks ago. So they all 639 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 13: kind of swim in the same waters. 640 00:31:59,000 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 10: They benefit. 641 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 12: The product might be different, the result is still the 642 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 12: same dead Americans. Lots of many billions of dollars made 643 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 12: in profit on the back of that to continue further 644 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 12: their protection racket across Slatin America into the United States 645 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 12: of course, also into Europe increasingly as well. 646 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, a scourge of addiction. One of the great weapons 647 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: of our enemy. 648 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: Venezuela was playing foot seat with Iran when it came 649 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: to those long range drones. We saw the tragedy Department 650 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: oh FAC sanction of Venezuela and its military base called 651 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 1: a Libertador in Venezuela, and then we struck it on 652 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: January third, when we arrested Maduro. The idea that long 653 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 1: range drones, the same ones that Iran was selling to 654 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: Russia to attack the Ukrainians, were in our hemisphere able 655 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 1: to strike US pretty alarming security situation for US. 656 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 12: Right Absolutely, there's a lot more than the drones going 657 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 12: on there, but certainly this right here highlights the degree 658 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 12: and the extent at which the Iranians have been present 659 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 12: and actually facilitating this regimes military capabilities and a direct 660 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 12: threat against the United States and Americans, not just in 661 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 12: the neighboring countries and near abroad. 662 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 13: But clearly all the way as far as into Florida. 663 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 4: Brent, I want to ask you about an interesting dynamic 664 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 4: the arrival and very swift departure of China as all 665 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 4: of this was happening in Venezuela. It's like they said, yeah, 666 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 4: we're not going to be in on this. It kind 667 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 4: of showed that they are chickens. I know that the 668 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 4: CCP is quite nefarious and underhanded, and they are always 669 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 4: trying to make moves with that respect, but they also 670 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 4: seem somewhat non confrontational. 671 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 3: Does that make sense? 672 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 12: I would probably go about a little differently they are 673 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 12: highly opportunistic and risk adverse, and I think they made 674 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 12: a very quick calculation. The juice wasn't worth the squeeze 675 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 12: in Venezuela. But they certainly have gone on like a 676 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 12: an initiative or a blitzkrig of words in the diplomatic sphere, 677 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 12: so that should be expected. But clearly the promises of 678 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 12: support military or anything meaningful, we're pretty shallow. And a 679 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 12: lot of other countries around the world have known that. 680 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 12: And I think this is just another example that you 681 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,919 Speaker 12: can make a quick buck with the Chinese, but don't 682 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 12: rely on them when when the weather changes and things 683 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 12: and the cards are starting to be dealt against you. 684 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 12: Maduro's in a jail right now in New York, you know, 685 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:18,839 Speaker 12: realizing that. 686 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair weather friends, for sure, China is before we 687 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 1: let you go. Speaking of China and the Marxist communist networks, 688 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: we seem to have a much more organized communist socialist 689 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: network on our own, so much bigger than maybe years past. 690 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: How concerning is that from a propaganda and operations standpoint 691 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 1: as we head into the twenty sixth election, into the 692 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: next few years of important history. 693 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, I mean this one, this could be 694 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 12: an hour's long conversation. But the Chinese Communist Party from 695 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 12: it's very while it was still fighting a civil war, established, 696 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 12: you know, a United Front directorate. Now that United Front 697 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 12: Directorate has agents all across the United States and many 698 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 12: other countries across the world, that their whole purpose is 699 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 12: to sow discord, to push a narrative that is self 700 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,319 Speaker 12: serving to the Chinese Commantist Party, and to buy and 701 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 12: curry political favor, often through nefarious means. The whole Fung 702 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 12: Fong controversy with the congress member in our Congress you 703 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,239 Speaker 12: come back to comes to mind on this, But it's 704 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 12: much bigger than that. The loophole right now, that's really 705 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 12: I think drawing a lot of attention, I think rightly, 706 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 12: but very tardy in that is not as the paid protesters. 707 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 12: Of course, the Chinese have a lot of money and 708 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 12: they have a lot of agents in the United States 709 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 12: that they can facilitate the transfer of money and have 710 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 12: paid protesters to show up to make it seem like 711 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 12: that it's an organic or an American voice on the street, 712 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 12: or to actually cause interference in our economic livelihood or 713 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 12: even execution of government functions like ice agents trying to 714 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 12: serve warrants for illegal aliens comes to mind. So it's 715 00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 12: a very real threat. It doesn't represent Americans ex sizing 716 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 12: their First Amendment rights, and it needs to be regulated 717 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 12: much like FARA for lobbyists and other folks in the 718 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 12: United States acting on behest of a foreign government. 719 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of our laws are quite behind the actual 720 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 1: tactics of our enemies these days. 721 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see if Congress catch up. Brent. 722 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: Is always a great honor to having your show. Thank 723 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: you for sharing your wisdom and all the great work 724 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: you do at Heritage. Great to have you on. 725 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 10: Thank you very much. 726 00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I appreciate you so much. 727 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,960 Speaker 1: All right, folks, Coming up next, New York City Mayor 728 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: Zorron Mndami is at the center of another controversy. 729 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 2: I know that you can find that ARTU believe right. 730 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,959 Speaker 1: We'll have more on that next with Rabbi Yakov Mankin 731 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 1: right after these messages. 732 00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 3: Welcome back everybody to just the news known noise. 733 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 4: Zorn Mamdani has been in the news lately for his 734 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,719 Speaker 4: takes on housing and now Venezuela, but he's also facing 735 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 4: outations of deleting tweets related to anti Semitism. 736 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 3: Why on earth would he do that? 737 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,320 Speaker 4: While joining us to discuss this as Rabbi Yakov thinking, Rabbi, 738 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,239 Speaker 4: thanks so much for being here today. Happy New Year 739 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 4: to you. 740 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 10: Thank you so much, and happy new Year. Glad to 741 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 10: be with you. 742 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 3: Thank you. 743 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 4: You know, we heard a lot of things about Zorn 744 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 4: Mam Donnie the candidate, and it seems like a lot 745 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 4: of those things that we heard are turning out to 746 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 4: be true. As mayor, Mom Donnie talked to us about 747 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 4: these executive orders. 748 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 3: That on day one, Mom Donnie took action. It's quite concerning. 749 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's definitely concerning, especially when you hear the back 750 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:41,240 Speaker 14: end narrative which apparently you know, this was not publicized obviously, 751 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 14: but it took a certain period of time and then 752 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 14: it got out there that Mam Donnie was actually offered 753 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 14: three alternatives to get rid of recognition of the International 754 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:57,320 Speaker 14: Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism, which is a credible, 755 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 14: accurate definition of antisemitism that includes when demonization of Israel 756 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 14: crosses over into hatred of Jews. See, he got rid 757 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 14: of that, and he wanted the intention was to get 758 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 14: rid of it. One option was you cancel those executive orders. 759 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 14: Option number two, you cancel every one of Mayor adams 760 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:23,280 Speaker 14: executive orders periods throughout is a dire term. Third option, 761 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 14: which is the one they went with, is we're going 762 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 14: to cancel all of the executive orders issued after Adams 763 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 14: was indicted on bribery charges, which makes it look like 764 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 14: good governance. You see, Mamdani wants it look to the 765 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 14: public like he's doing good governance. By canceling the executive orders. 766 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 14: You can see what a fig leaf that was. Because 767 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 14: what Adams was indicted for was that Turkish officials had 768 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 14: been giving him free flights, were paying for flights to 769 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 14: get the Turkish embassy open, or something like this. Got 770 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 14: to tell you the Turks were not telling Mayor Adams 771 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 14: to be nice to the Jews. 772 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:05,880 Speaker 10: That's just not the plot. 773 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 14: So the idea that because he was indicted because of 774 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 14: what he did together with the Turks, therefore we're going 775 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 14: to cancel the definition recognition of the definition of anti Semitism. 776 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 14: That straight out come on, Stop pretending Mandanie, you did 777 00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 14: that because you don't like the Jews and you want 778 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 14: bigotry against the Jews to have a free pass in 779 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 14: your administration. 780 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: That was also a little bit of cleaning up of 781 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: social media accounts. Apparently National Jewish Advocacy Center, a nonprofit 782 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 1: the combats antisemitism, found some posts. 783 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 2: It apparently were deleted. Tell us a little bit about that. 784 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 10: Yeah, that's absolutely true. 785 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 14: There were some people who had saved those tweets, and 786 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 14: one of those tweets was directly related to the municipal 787 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 14: report on combating Anti Semitism within the Mayor's office, which 788 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 14: Mayor Adams said was a blueprint for twenty twenty six. 789 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 14: We're going to combat anti Semitism. We're going to take 790 00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 14: it seriously. Here's our blueprint for twenty twenty six. What 791 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 14: did mom, Donnie do? He deleted it. I don't have 792 00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:16,319 Speaker 14: to make commentary on that. I don't have to tell 793 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 14: you what that means. If you can't figure out what 794 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:19,240 Speaker 14: that means, you're an idiot. 795 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 4: Come on, oh boy, I mean and Rabbi, a millennial 796 00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 4: like Zoron Mamdannie should know that the Internet is forever. 797 00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 4: So shame on him for thinking that he could just 798 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 4: dust that under the rug. I want to ask you 799 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 4: about what the sentiment is. I know you're in Philadelphia, 800 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,800 Speaker 4: but I know you have a lot of friends in 801 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 4: New York and for Jewish New Yorkers, does it feel 802 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 4: more dangerous now that Zoron Mom Donnie is in office. 803 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 10: I would have to say obviously so. 804 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 14: I mean, we have watched anti Semitism grow, especially as 805 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 14: it has been encouraged by public officials. 806 00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 10: Look at what happened in Australia. 807 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 14: They wreckgnized the fictional state of Palestine, the idea that 808 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 14: Arabs are the true Palestinians and they need another state Jordan, 809 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 14: which is seventy seven percent of the British mandate for Palestine. 810 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 10: That's apparently not enough. 811 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 14: We have to take more territory away from the Jewish people, 812 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 14: and if they're not going to do it, we're going 813 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 14: to recognize it. Two months later, we have the Bandai 814 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 14: Beach attack. One hundred percent there's a connection there because 815 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 14: the government action. Everybody from the Israelis to Hamas recognized 816 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,439 Speaker 14: this was a reward to. 817 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 10: Hamas for terrorism. 818 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 14: In New York City, they have now elected an openly 819 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 14: anti Semitic man to be the next mayor, to be 820 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 14: the current mayor in the City of New York. That's 821 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:50,480 Speaker 14: just obviously disastrous for the community. And you look at 822 00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 14: these early signals the man is clearly more interested in 823 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 14: demonizing the Jews and Israel than he is in governing 824 00:41:58,239 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 14: the city of New York. 825 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: Before we let you go, Rabbi, what are some of 826 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 1: the most opportunistic strategies for countering Mandami in this era 827 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: of hate and intolerance, anti Semitism that he's and socialism 828 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: that he's brought to not only the Big Apple, but 829 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,239 Speaker 1: he's part of a movement to bring it to all 830 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: of America. What are some of the bright strategies that 831 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: you think could combat this quickly. 832 00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 14: Well, first of all, there is just the fact of 833 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 14: calling it out. It is amazing to me to watch 834 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:34,960 Speaker 14: when people are calling Israel genocideal as it tries to 835 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,240 Speaker 14: rescue hostages and apartheid, when of course all the Arab 836 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 14: states expelled and ethnically cleansed out all their Jews, and 837 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 14: they keep accusing Israel of all the things that the 838 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 14: Arab surrounding Arab states actually did to the Jews, and 839 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 14: we all play but nice and we talk about it. 840 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,839 Speaker 10: Oh, you know, politely, he's making a mistake. This is right. No, 841 00:42:57,080 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 10: the man is an anti Semitic barbarian. Let's make that clear. 842 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 14: Number one, but number two is the financial and voting 843 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 14: with your feet damage you people are moving to Florida. 844 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 10: I have to correct the record or one thing. 845 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,240 Speaker 14: I'm in Baltimore rather than Philadelphia, but you have people 846 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 14: looking at real estate in Baltimore, in Lakewood, New Jersey, 847 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:21,440 Speaker 14: in Florida, especially because they want to get out of. 848 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 10: New York City. 849 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 14: New York City is going to lose more tax revenue 850 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 14: in the next four years than I don't know if. 851 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 10: Ever in its history. That's my prediction. 852 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 14: Either you are going to watch a decline in tax 853 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 14: revenue because wealthy people are going to get out, and 854 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 14: that is the clearest rebuke of Mamdani, besides the fact 855 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 14: that Republicans across the country are going to be using 856 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 14: Mamdani as their symbol for the Democrats deservedly so in 857 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 14: the next election cycle. 858 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think New Yorkers are going to be feeling 859 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 4: the pain of this, and it's going to happen sooner 860 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 4: than they expect.

And Tennessee 874 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 4: is one of those states that you go to when 875 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 4: you want to get more bang for your buck. So 876 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 4: a one point six million dollar house in Tennessee, that's 877 00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 4: not a house. 878 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 3: That's a mansion. 879 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 1: That's a big house.

You know, this 881 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,600 Speaker 1: is what the story of the New Democratic Party is, 882 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 1: which is roles for thee and not for me. 883 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: Uh. They live by a different standard. 884 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 1: And that is exactly what socialists and communists and leftists 885 00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 1: have done for decades now, centuries actually a couple of centuries, 886 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 1: which is we preach populism or we preach collectivism, but 887 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: we live off of that and it's a very wealthy 888 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:20,560 Speaker 1: and good lifestyle for us. 889 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 2: And so I don't begredge your Mampra. I'm good home. 890 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:23,920 Speaker 2: Good for her. 891 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 1: She should have raised her daughter to appreciate home ownership. 892 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:27,560 Speaker 1: Maybe a little bit better. 893 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 4: Listen, maybe they're strange and the daughter has never even 894 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 4: seen the house, and that would explain that could explain 895 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:34,240 Speaker 4: the vast gulf in there. 896 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: The benefit of the doubt. 897 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, And I also think it's been really interesting 898 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,480 Speaker 4: to see you talk about collectivism and this has been 899 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 4: a Zoro and Mom Donnie has been the butt of 900 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 4: jokes when they talk about things like the warmth of collectivism. 901 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 4: And there were a lot of memes out there showing 902 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,799 Speaker 4: what's happening in Venezuelas, describing it. 903 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 3: As the warmth of collectivism. 904 00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 4: But I found it so great to see so many Venezuelans, 905 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,800 Speaker 4: especially in South Florida where many of them settled out there, 906 00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 4: you know, speaking out about this and thanking the United 907 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 4: States of America for taking decisive action. And I'm sure 908 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 4: you've seen these video mashups, these collages of people who 909 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 4: are woken up in the middle of the night told 910 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,920 Speaker 4: what happened, and just the tears of joy. 911 00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 3: It's amazing to see. 912 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it gives hope to other countries or other 913 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: immigrants of countries like Cuba and Iran. Where As I 914 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: said maybe at the beginning of the Trump presidency, I 915 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 1: think those are two regimes that could fall on Donald 916 00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: Trump's watch in addition to Maduro's down. Let's see what's next. 917 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: There's still a lot of work to be done in Maduro. 918 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 1: In Maduro's world, his successor is a pretty hardcore socialist 919 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 1: making nice soundings with Trump, but you can't be ignorant 920 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 1: of her past and her role in it. Want to 921 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: see if there's a opposition that cannot only win the 922 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,360 Speaker 1: election but also govern, and I think that's what President 923 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: Trump and Marco Rubio are working at solely, not nation building. 924 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,719 Speaker 1: It's really just stabilizing and giving the Venezuelan people a 925 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: chance to have a true, chosen a leader as opposed 926 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 1: to the imposed leader that Chavez and Maduro were. 927 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, Maria Machada, the leader of the opposition movement. 928 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 4: She was not allowed to run in their last election 929 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 4: because she was banned from running, but she was the. 930 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 3: One for our audience reminds you. 931 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 4: She's the one who won the Nobel Peace Prize and 932 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,799 Speaker 4: then she dedicated it to freedom fighters across the world 933 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 4: and creitting President Trump, so she definitely has the love 934 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 4: of the Venezuelan people. 935 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,799 Speaker 3: And yeah, I think it's incredible to. 936 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 4: See something else that I wanted to tackle, America's. 937 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 3: Two hundred and fiftieth. 938 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 4: Last night was the final night of a i think 939 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 4: a six day run where they displayed imagery from America's 940 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,920 Speaker 4: two hundred and fifty years on the Washington Monument. 941 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 3: They had a huge fireworks display. It was absolutely incredible. 942 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:47,520 Speaker 4: I've seen videos online and actually as I was leaving 943 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 4: the city it was starting to happen. 944 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 3: But this kicks off john a really fun year. 945 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 2: It does. 946 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean, We've got the World Cup, we got the 947 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:58,239 Speaker 1: preparations for the twenty twenty Olympics, we got the twenty 948 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 1: twenty six Winter Olympics. We've got some really strong contenders. 949 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 1: Our speed skating team maybe the best America's ever fielded 950 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,719 Speaker 1: hockey Team's going to be competitive is the four nation 951 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 1: contest last year showed a chance for pride and a 952 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 1: chance for accomplishment, a chance for economic gain. I think 953 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good year for the pocketbook and 954 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 1: the water cooler. And I also think, and the thing 955 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm most excited about is using this year to educate 956 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 1: our young people about all that's good about America, because 957 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: all they've been told by their teachers and educators and 958 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 1: textbooks and social media is that America is a flawed country, 959 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: and in fact, it is an extraordinary country. As the 960 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: men and women who carried out that Medua rachotis, we 961 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,160 Speaker 1: grow amazing people here and they do amazing things, and 962 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 1: they're selfless and. 963 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 2: They help others, and that we've got a few flaws 964 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 2: here and there. What family doesn't. 965 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:49,239 Speaker 1: But I think twenty six is an opportunity to re 966 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: educate and rebrand America for its true accomplishments, not the 967 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,719 Speaker 1: fake criticisms that it often has imposed upon it. 968 00:48:56,920 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, you read my mind, because I was thinking about 969 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:03,799 Speaker 4: how twenty twenty six can be a revolutionary reset when 970 00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 4: it comes to patriotism in this country. If you are 971 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 4: a parent and you have kids, look, I understand that 972 00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 4: it's probably going to be very hard to get to Washington, 973 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,919 Speaker 4: d C. In July for the celebration, but make sure 974 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 4: you expose your kids to as much of this as 975 00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:20,239 Speaker 4: possible there. If you go on America too fifty dot org, 976 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 4: you will find a calendar of events. There is stuff 977 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 4: happening every day in every location across the country. Especially 978 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 4: John I noticed in states like Virginia and Pennsylvania and 979 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,800 Speaker 4: New York and places where Revolutionary War took place, because 980 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 4: you know, it's like every day of the year. You know, 981 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 4: one of the founding fathers went to this tavern in 982 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 4: this obscure town in Virginia. So show it to your children, 983 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:44,080 Speaker 4: let them see what they can be proud about of 984 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 4: this country. I mean, just so much to love about 985 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:48,880 Speaker 4: this country. As John said, we've got a few flaws 986 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,880 Speaker 4: here and there, but every country has it, and we've prevailed. 987 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 4: So here's to another two hundred and fifty. All right, everybody, 988 00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:55,399 Speaker 4: We'll have a great night to see to Mark
