1 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: National divorce. Talk about it all the time. How many 2 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 1: times have you heard me talk about it? Let's for 3 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: the new new viewers, just a brief recap. I've always 4 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: were not always recently in years I've noticed something. We're 5 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: not a nation. We're not a nation anymore. You know, 6 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 1: you can only be a nation if you share common 7 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: values with each other. You don't have to think alike, 8 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,200 Speaker 1: but you have to have something in common, some sort 9 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: of common values. If you don't, you're not a nation. 10 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: It's just a big powder cake waiting to explode. You're 11 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,599 Speaker 1: in a cage officially with someone you hate so well. 12 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: I've used this example before. If you're a husband and 13 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: wife couple, and eventually he decides he wants to move 14 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: out to the suburbs, white pick offence church on Sunday, 15 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,040 Speaker 1: raise three or four kids. That's what he wants out 16 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 1: of the marriage, that's what he wants out of life. 17 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: And she decides no, she'd rather go tour with her 18 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: favorite band in Europe and do black tar heroine. There's 19 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: no common ground there. It's not like she just wants 20 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 1: to live in the city and he wants to live 21 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: in the suburbs. There's no common ground there. They're gonna 22 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: have to go their separate ways. It's better for both 23 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: of them, right. Otherwise, the cops that were getting called 24 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 1: every night, they're shouting over here, Well, that's where we 25 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: are as a country. There's no common values anymore, none 26 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: between us and the communists done. We don't share any 27 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: and so I've always had the stream that we would 28 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 1: just come together and agree on the one thing I 29 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 1: believe we can agree on. We hate each other. I'm 30 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,559 Speaker 1: not naive. They hate me. They hate you, they do. 31 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: They hate you. They would love to imprison you actually 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: for what you believe. Don't think I'm over exaggerating on that. 33 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: We've had pole after pole afterpole that show the majority 34 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: of Democrats believe you should have your children taken away 35 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: from you and or be locked up if you didn't 36 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: take a vaccine. We're dealing with communists here who would 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,359 Speaker 1: love to hurt you for what you believe. And that's fine. Look, 38 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 1: because I'm not even pointing fingers. I feel the same 39 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: way about them. If you're a human being who, let's 40 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: say you're in charge of kids, and you tell a 41 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: twelve year old boy behind his parents back that he 42 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: should chop his penis off and become a woman. I 43 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: think you should be thrown into a dark hole for 44 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: the rest of your life. I hate them too, I 45 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: get it. We hate each other, I get it. But 46 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: we could agree on that right. So I always wanted 47 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: us to come together like it a divorce. It'd be ugly, 48 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: be uncomfortable. They send their representatives, we send ours. I 49 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: will of course lead that delegation, and we sit down 50 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: with some sort of a neutral arbitrator and we just 51 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: divide up the country, the assets, the liabilities, who gets 52 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: the kids, who gets the dogs, who gets California, who 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: gets New York, how much the military? Will We just 54 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: sit we just take the time, we hash it out, 55 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 1: and we just go our separate ways. But I'm not stupid. 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: I know that's not going to happen. I'm not naive. 57 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: These things do happen. It is happening, which we're about 58 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: to get into. But it just takes time. There won't 59 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: be a sit down where we work things out over 60 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: weeks and months of meetings. These things take time. We 61 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: just had a midterm election, and I know there's all 62 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: kinds of chatter after a midterm election, and I've done 63 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of this too. Okay, what do we win, 64 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: what we lose, who do we blame? But of course 65 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: this is normal post election talk. But one of the 66 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: things people simply aren't discussing at all is the red 67 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: areas got a lot redder, the blue areas got a 68 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: lot bluer. Why it's Ronda Santas. I mean, yeah, you 69 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: can give Rona Santa's bunch of credit for Florita. He 70 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: deserves it, no question about that. But the truth is 71 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: Republicans left their blue state and they moved to a 72 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: state where they could be free. People vote with their feet. 73 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: They're already voting with their feet. And as Republicans leave 74 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: these blue areas and go to red states and make 75 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: them redder, that is already in turn pushing communists out 76 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: of red states and pushing them into blue states. I 77 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: know a realtor in Austin, Texas. Here in Texas already 78 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: telling me, with Texas' abortion laws and things like that, 79 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: horrified communists are already selling their homes. They're gomps. I 80 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: don't want to live under this authoritarianism. The divorce is 81 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: already happening. And so that's why I've been telling you 82 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: time and time and time again. Move now, if you're 83 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: behind enemy lines, move move for a lot of different reasons. 84 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: And I get responses like this, and I get it. 85 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 1: I get it. This one says Jesse or I know Jesse, 86 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: but Pennsylvania is my home. How can you expect me 87 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: to just be willing to get up and leave. I 88 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: like it here. Why should they get to take it 89 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: over and destroy it? Easy for you to say, make 90 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: a red state redder, but in practice it's not so easy. 91 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 1: Well who said it was easy? And who said this 92 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: was fair? It's the divorce. It's awful. Have you ever 93 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: known anybody going through a divorce and any one of 94 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: your friends, maybe you've gone through one yourself? Did you 95 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 1: enjoy the experience? And so awful? It's terrible. I just 96 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: get to see the kids on the weekend. No way 97 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: you're taking the dog. I loved the dog. Yeah, it sucks. 98 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: It sucks to live in a country that has destroyed 99 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: itself from within. It sucks to live in a place 100 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: where we were too weak to stop the hundred year 101 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: march of communists through our institutions. That's where we live now. 102 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: I know it sucks. But also to keep in mind 103 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: when I tell you to do this. I have lived this, 104 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: I have done it. I've moved across the country multiple times. 105 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,719 Speaker 1: One time I packed up because I was living in 106 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: DC for a year. We moved it for a year. 107 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: Blue place hated it sucked. Everyone's so rude. It's all 108 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: liberal at all. It's horrible. I quit my job without 109 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: a job and through the family in a minivan. It 110 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 1: just started driving across the country and moved clear to 111 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: Texas without a job and found a job on Craigslist 112 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: selling RVs. When I tell you to move, don't ever 113 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: say it to be easy for you to say. Brother, 114 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: I've done it. I know how hard it is. I 115 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,799 Speaker 1: know it's scary. And let me tell you something. It's 116 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: worth it. It is worth it, worth it every single 117 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: every day. It becomes more and more worth it every 118 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: single day because the little experiences you have. I mean, 119 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: there are a bunch of reasons, we'll get into them 120 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: in a second. The little experiences you have every single 121 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: day when you live and work around people who share 122 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: your values, it makes your whole life better. Your entire 123 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: life is better. Trust me, as someone who's done it. 124 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: Trust me it works, Or I'll get people who don't 125 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: want to move. They'll say this, Jesse, we just need 126 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: to stop the fraud. It stop the election fraud. I 127 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: got a bunch of that. Stop the election fraud is 128 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: what they said. Okay, what we need. All we have 129 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: to do in North three is stop the concentration camps. 130 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: That's what you sound like. So we did stop the 131 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: fraud in Pennsylvania. Are you gonna do that? We did 132 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: stop the fraud in Michigan. What's your plan for that? 133 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: We're all Democrat run Do you think Democrats are interesting 134 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: interested in stopping the fraud cleaning up elections. They're the 135 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: reason we have all this. They've done all this on purpose. 136 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 1: There's a reason the red states have all their election 137 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: results in on election day boom boom boom. You know 138 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,119 Speaker 1: the results, and for some reason, these Democrat controlled blue 139 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: states seem to take a little bit of extra time. 140 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: There's a reason Democrats their national party platform is that 141 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have to show an ID to vote. Why 142 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: do you think that is? I stop the fraud? We can't. 143 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: We don't have the power in those areas to stop 144 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: the fraud. You can move to a red state and 145 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: they'll pass voter ID laws and strict voting laws and 146 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: they'll stop the fraud. Just we have to live in 147 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: the world as it is. And do I need to 148 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: remind you about COVID in the lockdowns. Yes, I live 149 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: in a state of Texas that was far from perfect 150 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: when it came to COVID lockdowns. Our governor is kind 151 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: of useless and that sucks. But I have to travel 152 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: a bit to do you know, fancy TV things, But 153 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: I have to travel a bit. So I was traveling 154 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: during COVID when I would have to go from Texas 155 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: to New York. You always end up in New York 156 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: City for something. When I would go to New York, 157 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: it was like I moved to a different planet. It 158 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: was insane that in Texas during the height of COVID, 159 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: not in twenty twenty one. In twenty twenty we were 160 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: having big neighborhood cookouts, parties, kids out playing, living life, 161 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: walking through the grocery store, no mask on. That's what 162 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,040 Speaker 1: it's like in a red area. How was it in 163 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: your blue area? To which you might be saying, do 164 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: you mean now, Jesse, Well, COVID's over. COVID's over. You 165 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: know what, I want you to look at this, Look 166 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: at this video New York and Florida. We are enacting 167 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: a statewide indoor mask mandate unless a business has a 168 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: vaccination mandate. Some people say, hey, these local governments wanted 169 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 1: to lock down businesses, they wanted to force mandates. They 170 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 1: wanted to keep the kids locked out of school. Yeah, 171 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: you're damn right. I overruled them on that because they 172 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: were wrong. Which state do you want to live in? Jesse? 173 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: If but COVID's over COVID's over man. COVID wasn't a 174 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: one off. COVID was a preview. COVID was a stress 175 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: test the tyrants in this country. They decided to see 176 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: just how much tyranny they I could bring to the 177 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 1: Land of the Free, and they brought a lot. They 178 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: turned the United States of America, parts of it anyway, 179 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: into a complete police state, where people were calling to 180 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: report in on neighbors, if they went to work, if 181 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: they opened up a little shop. Americans informing on each 182 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 1: other like it's East Germany. This was a stress test. 183 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 1: You think, that's the last time they're going to do 184 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: something like that, and what world do you happen to 185 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: be living in the last time. It was a preview 186 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: of what to come. Now, here's one other reason. You 187 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: have to Look, you're just a person. I'm just a person, 188 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: which citizens right, we do need some form of state protection, 189 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: especially as the federal government is increasingly evil and aggressive, 190 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: especially going after people like you, people like me. You 191 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: have to have some form of protection. Have you seen 192 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: what they've done to the January six political prisoners. They 193 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: have thrown the book at these people. One at least 194 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: one guy was forced by the judge to denounce verbally 195 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: his own actions are weird, honestly, like a struggle session 196 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: straight out of Mao's China. Why how does that happen? Well, 197 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 1: if you're in blue Washington d C. Let's see, you 198 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: have a blue nay, blue mayor, blue city council, lots 199 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: of blue people on the police force. Oh and did 200 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: I mention if you happen to have to go to 201 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: trial in the Washington DC area, I believe it's ninety 202 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: two percent Democrat. So your peers who are going to 203 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: be your jury and decide your fate in your blue area, 204 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: they're all Democrats who think you're a Nazi. I do 205 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: not believe that I am as extreme in the way 206 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: that Marjorie Taylor Green on the Republican side is extreme. 207 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: I believe in the full integrity of our elections. I 208 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: believe American democracy. And the other side of the y'all 209 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: is extreme. They're out of control, they're off the hook. 210 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: They don't believe in democracy. This Mago crowd is really 211 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: the most extreme political organization that's existed in American history. 212 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: Extreme Nazi, extreme, white supremacist, extreme extreme extreme. Not jury. 213 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: It's gonna be judging you. That's what they think about you. Now, 214 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: let me tell you if you were on a jury 215 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: over on Nazi, an extreme Nazi, you think you'd be 216 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: inclined to convictive. Yeah, you need to get to a 217 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,959 Speaker 1: place where you might have a chance should the legal 218 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: system come after you. Oh and one last thing, this 219 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: trans insanity stuff, this it's not going away. Oh yay um. 220 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: I for me personally, I never used she. I just 221 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: never feel feminine. I figured it's about time that I 222 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: came out and talked about my gender identity. I am 223 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: trying gender, which means like a triangle. I have three genders, male, female, 224 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: and non binary.

All 240 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: that may have made you uncomfortable, but I am right 241 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: And talk to my boy, Dave reboy. Next. Each morning, 242 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: the President of the United States receives a highly classified 243 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: briefing on the most important issues facing the country. It's 244 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: called the President's Daily Brief or PDB. It's delivered by 245 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: America's spies and analysts. Well, now you can hear your 246 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: very own PDB in the form of a podcast hosted 247 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: by me Brian Dean Wright, a former CIA operations officer. 248 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: Each morning at six a Eastern, I'll bring you fifteen 249 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 1: to twenty minutes of the most important issues facing the country, 250 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: giving you the critical intelligence and analysis you need to 251 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: start your morning.

Imagine if you had a bureaucracy and 254 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: leadership like they did in New York? Would that bridge 255 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: have been fixed in three days? Is there anybody here 256 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: that thinks that bridge would have been fixed in three 257 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 1: days with that bureaucratic mindset? Of course, it wouldn't have. 258 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 1: If anyone does believe that, please talk to me after this, 259 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: because I e ocean front property.

I love it. Late Republic nonsense, Dave, 262 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't we first started hanging out, you were in a very, 263 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 1: very blue area, and now you reside in Florida. People 264 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: have heard me say it a thousand times. Would you 265 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: please elaborate for the masses the difference in living in 266 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: like DC or New York in Florida. Oh my gosh, 267 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: well it doesn't even you don't even need to go 268 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: to the level of what Governor DeSantis just mentioned when 269 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: he when he talked about the the lack of absurd, 270 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: crippling bureaucracy in some of these these blue states that prevent, uh, 271 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: you know, prevent government and private businesses and people from 272 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: functioning in a normal and productive way without interference. I mean, 273 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: it's a lot more basic than that, and uh and 274 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: it gets to it gets to something that I guess 275 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: we'll we'll wind up talking about, which is that you 276 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: don't need to be surrounded by people who despise you. 277 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: And that's running into somebody at the superman market or 278 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 1: at the gym or wherever. Um. You know, if you 279 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: are a a a right leaning person in a blue state, 280 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: um odds are you feel this dark cloud around you 281 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: wherever you go. You feel like you are, like you 282 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: don't belong and that people hate you because guess what 283 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: they do. And the left historically has been very good 284 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: about about keeping and holding territory. I mean, I lived 285 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: most of my life in blue areas. I lived in 286 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: New York and in San Francisco and in Washington, d C. 287 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: And one thing the left does very well is it 288 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: they give you a sense that you are not welcome 289 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 1: if you do not share their politics. And it's at 290 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: every moment. It's it's the the graffiti on the on 291 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 1: the on the streets, it's the signs in the windows, 292 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: it's the random um uh, you know, offhand comments from 293 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: from people in the supermarket line um, it's it's everything. 294 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 1: And once you walk away from that and go to 295 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: a place where you are more welcome, where you feel like, hey, 296 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 1: the people, most of the people around you agree with you, 297 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,639 Speaker 1: like this cloud lifts and you actually feel so much better, 298 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: You feel more optimistic about the future, and frankly, you're 299 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: just happier. So to me, I don't understand why people 300 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: waste another moment being under this cloud. And you know, 301 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: I think they should just get up and go. And 302 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 1: if they can't do that, then they should at least 303 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: figure out how they can get up and go. Maybe 304 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: not tomorrow or the next day or even a year 305 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:44,920 Speaker 1: from now, but every just about everybody can can come 306 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 1: up with a plan to go to a place where 307 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: they're surrounded by people who think like them and don't 308 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: despise them. You're so right. I tell people all the time. 309 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: It's not just you know, the state protection level and 310 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 1: things like that, or what they did versus COVID or 311 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: it's the little experiences. Every single day you get a 312 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: thousand little experiences that make life better and the sense 313 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: of community just changes everything. All right, you know, I 314 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 1: want to move to something else real quick. Rhondas scientists. 315 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: Florida Republicans had a big night. He was a little 316 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: bit of it. We have embraced freedom, we have maintained 317 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: law and order. We have protected the rights of parents, 318 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: we have respected our taxpayers, and we reject woke ideology. 319 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: We fight the woke in the legislature, we fight the 320 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: woke in the schools, we fight the woke in the corporations. 321 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: We will never ever surrender to the woke mob. Florida 322 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: is where Wolf goes to die. Dave Rhonda Santists won 323 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: Florida by about oh that much the first time he 324 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: was elected. And now he up there sounding like some 325 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: kind of fire breathing right winger and one by twenty points. 326 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: How does that happen? Um? It happens because he was 327 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: right on many of the many of the kind of 328 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: key issues of our time. And he very smartly UM 329 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: picked fights that that were important fights to have and uh, 330 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: and he was unafraid to use state power in advancing, UM, 331 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 1: some of these important issues that that the people face. 332 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the Disney thing was huge. The COVID thing 333 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: was huge. UM. I mean probably the COVID thing was 334 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 1: was the biggest. UM. It was. It was the biggest 335 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: game changer. And I mean I still think I was here. UM. 336 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: I was here, and I traveled throughout throughout the year 337 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: of COVID, and I saw the difference between Florida and 338 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: the rest of the country. UM, not just in blue states, 339 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: but also in in other red states as well. And 340 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 1: Florida was a beacon. And had it not been for 341 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: Ron de Santis, who got pilloried by the media and 342 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 1: UM and and by and by politicians, I mean they 343 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: came out, they made up stories that he was dumping 344 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: dead COVID bodies in the Everglades UM to hide them. 345 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: I mean, they went completely crazy on him. And he 346 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: did not bend, and he did not buckle and uh. 347 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: And it's really because of him that the rest of 348 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: the country managed to to open up. Because Florida is 349 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: one of the one of the nation's biggest states, and 350 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: it does carry a lot of weight. And if we 351 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: would have had Gillham, or if we would have had 352 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: even a wishy, washy Republican you know, semi conservative, pale 353 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:48,479 Speaker 1: red kind of guy, Um, it would not have happened 354 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: this way because um, because he was just um he look, 355 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: I mean, he was just great and he had no fear. 356 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: And it created the the the title wave of you know, 357 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 1: a title wave towards towards freedom. And look, I mean 358 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 1: the proof is in the pudding. You see how many 359 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: people moved to Florida in that time, and you also 360 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: see how many people change their party registrations from Democrat 361 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: to Republican in this time. I mean, it's it's it's 362 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: absolutely unprecedented. Dave, ye boy late republic nonsense is is 363 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: sub stack. Thank you, my brother, Thank you. All right, Well, 364 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: debate action with Kira and Dave Marcus next. You don't 365 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: think for a second, I'll talk more about that in 366 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 1: a moment, that we are not doing anything except accelerating. 367 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: I mentioned what we're doing. I'm permitting and procurement accelerating 368 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: that transition to low carbon, renewable sources of energy Java. Now, 369 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:12,200 Speaker 1: these are master manipulators. They have this conspiracy going all 370 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: across to America to try and convince people that in 371 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: democratic states they're not as safe. You know what, I'm 372 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: looking forward to this. My friends Kira Davis and Dave 373 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 1: Marcus are about to argue with me, and I love 374 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: it joining me now. Kira Davis, Editor at large, Red State, 375 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: Dave Marcus, columnist, New York Post. I read all his stuff. 376 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,160 Speaker 1: All right, Kiera, I'm gonna ask you both the same question. 377 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: I'll go to you first. Why are you still in 378 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 1: this blue hell hole of California where I think like 379 00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 1: half your votes have been counted by now, and it's 380 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: only going to get worse. Why subject yourself to that? 381 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:52,199 Speaker 1: Come to Texas. Not all of us need to be 382 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: in Texas, Jesse. As the whole of the United States 383 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: supposed to be in Texas and Florida. What happens to 384 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: the rest of the country. I mean, in your national divorce, 385 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 1: I'll have you. I'll remind you, Jesse, that two California 386 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: congressmen just saved the House in DC. Two California congressmen. 387 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: If we all leave California, who is here to hold 388 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 1: the line. Who is here to put up a fight. 389 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying that I'm super excited to 390 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: be here, but there are a lot of reasons why 391 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 1: I live in California. I don't live by myself. I 392 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: have a family. I have a husband who has a 393 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: job here. I have a daughter who goes to school here. 394 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: I have a lot of ties to California. And there 395 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: are a lot of reasons why even if I wanted 396 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,679 Speaker 1: to get up and move, I couldn't really afford to 397 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: get up and move, So some of us have to 398 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 1: stay in fight. I understand your point of view, and 399 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: I understand that it is frustrating. I mean, no one 400 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: is more frustrated than me right now, Jesse. I'm ranking 401 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: for school board and only half my votes are counted 402 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: right now, and I'm behind. So I definitely am you frustrated. 403 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I don't think you can 404 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: discount what Californians are doing here to affect real change. 405 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: And there are a lot of failures going on here. 406 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 1: The GOP, the state GOP, has been a massive failure, 407 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: and that's something that should change and can change. But 408 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 1: the idea that we're all supposed to just pick up 409 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: and move to red states or move to Texas. What 410 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 1: happens to the rest of the country, and then what 411 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: happens to the electoral votes? Okay, Dave, I put the 412 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: question out there, why are you living in New York City? Dave? 413 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: I remember going to New York City during COVID, and 414 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: it was like I stepped into a different planet of hell. 415 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: The streets for empty, everything's locked. Does you're a New 416 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: York guy, why not come and live by me? So? 417 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, I'd like to say that 418 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:50,360 Speaker 1: I see, I'll see Californias to Republican flips and raise 419 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: you five Republican flips in New York, which is how 420 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: we wound up with the House not to turn this 421 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: into a New York versus LA thing. And see that's 422 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: what That's what inevitably is going to happen here, Jesse, 423 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 1: We're just going to ignore Texas and sort of bicker 424 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: with each other. Um No, look, I think what I 425 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: think what Kia said is on the mark. I would 426 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:13,080 Speaker 1: certainly be open to uh living in a red state 427 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 1: or a blue state, right. I live in a very 428 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 1: blue place called Brooklyn, but my part of Brooklyn isn't 429 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: blue at all. I have a Republican congresswoman who just 430 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: won reelection with double digits. Um, the entirety of South 431 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,880 Speaker 1: Brooklyn really did have a red wave, in large part 432 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: because of what you said, which was that the lockdowns 433 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: were so terrible that it's it's not just that people 434 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: have a lingering anger about it, it's that the city 435 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 1: still doesn't work the way it should. Um. You know, 436 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: you get on the subway, you just have no idea 437 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: where you're gonna wind up, Like literally, no announcement, no nothing, 438 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: just like the doors open and you hope you're closed. 439 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: So seriously, Um, at least you have public transportation, Dave, 440 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 1: we don't have anything. I thought, wait, your your your 441 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: high speed rail between Los Angeles and San Francisco isn't 442 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: done yet. I thought that now, still working on that. 443 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: So look, yeah, that's it. People like different lifestyles and 444 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: like different access to things. I do, like being able 445 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: to walk to the bodega at midnight and grab a 446 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: pack of cigarettes if I need it, that kind of thing. 447 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: So it's it's a lot of lifestyle stuff. And you know, 448 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: as to the divorce, like I said, somebodys like new York. 449 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: There really are these red areas, so I'm just not sure. Geographically, 450 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: we don't have a Mason Dixon line here to play with, 451 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: so I'm just not quite sure how it would work. Now. Look, 452 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: I don't disagree, and you both make great points. To 453 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: Kira's point, I realize everyone has lots of people have 454 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: ties they can't leave. Even today's point, people have lifestyle. 455 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: New Yorkers love New York, and you know I love 456 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 1: New York day. We have enjoyed ourselves there on more 457 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: than one occasion. I love New York. But where it's 458 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: not where we're at even it's where I see us going, Kira, 459 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: as as the country is already separating, we're never going 460 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,119 Speaker 1: to have this divorce. I want to have where we 461 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: sit down and talk. But the country is already separating. 462 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 1: People are voting with their feet, so the country separates. 463 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: In the blue, places get bluer, life gets worse for 464 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 1: the Davis family, and I'm actually pulling for you, not 465 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: against you. That's why I tell you to move. Well. 466 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: Thanks a lot, Jessie for your concern. Look, the Davis 467 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: family is right where we're supposed to be. I don't 468 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: call all the shots and I definitely believe that I 469 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: have a calling also as a woman of faith, and 470 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 1: that's not something that I take very lightly. When it's 471 00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: time to pick up and go, God will tell me 472 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 1: and I'll go. But I've never been a quitter. I 473 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 1: wish I could be, I really do wish I could be, 474 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 1: but I don't have it in me. I've only ever 475 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: had to fight in my life, and I'm going to 476 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: keep fighting. It's all I know how to do. And 477 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: I do believe that. I understand the country is voting 478 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: with their feet. Things are changing, but this is nothing 479 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: that I haven't seen before. I've been doing this job 480 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: and politics going out fifteen years now. I came in 481 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 1: on the Tea Party of Men, and back then people 482 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 1: were moving, voting with their feet, and back then we 483 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: were talking about a national divorce. And back then we 484 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: were talking about we're never gonna win another election, and 485 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,719 Speaker 1: the Democrats have it sewed up. This is all cyclical 486 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: and at some point, you know, we will be in 487 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: another red cycle. I definitely believe that, and there are 488 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: small points of hope. I mean, you look at Kevin 489 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: Kylie coming out of Northern California going to the House 490 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: now great candidate, great future for the GOP in California 491 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: if the party can get their crap together enough to 492 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: pull it together. But there are a lot of us 493 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: on the ground. I'm exactly in the same spot as 494 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: a day right. There are red, deeply, deeply red spots 495 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: in California, and in fact, we do have enough Republican 496 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: voters in the state to swing elections. But the vote, 497 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: the vote, excuse me, is depressed. So I, you know, 498 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: would be fun to move to a place where everybody 499 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: thinks like me and votes like me. But that is 500 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: not my calling. And so until it's time to go, 501 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to be here and I'm gonna fight. I 502 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: don't know how to quit. Dave could probably ask both 503 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: of you this question for people who can't move or 504 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 1: won't move. You know, you're stuck in New York, you're 505 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: stuck in California, or want to be there. What advice 506 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: do you have for people? Because I get emails all 507 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: the time, Jesse, I'd love to move. I can't, Jesse, 508 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: my mom's sick. I can't Jesse, I can and I 509 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: totally get that. So what do you tell that person? Well, look, 510 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: I mean I think within the area that you live, 511 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: there are different options. I mean, I talk to my 512 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,320 Speaker 1: neighbors about politics quite a lot, Right, It's partially because 513 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: they know it's my job. Whatever, you know, we do that. 514 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: If I lived in the West Village, those conversations might 515 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 1: get ugly. But I don't. I live in Dyker Heights, 516 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: so the conversations are perfectly fine. Part of what I 517 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: think you've tapped into that's a very big problem in 518 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: our society is the number of people for whom politics 519 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: is a very important part of their identity. Right, Politics 520 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 1: and being a Conservative is a very important part of 521 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: my job and my career, not my identity. Right. Being 522 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 1: a Catholic, is being a dad, is being a neighbor, 523 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: is all of all of these things. And I think 524 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: ultimately what we need is for people to look at 525 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: elections is what they are, you know, just elections, not 526 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: their faith, not their religion, not the seat where their 527 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: soul lives. And that I think would would calm things 528 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: down a little bit and really help everybody be a 529 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: bit more sane. That's the problem, right, starts something here, Jesse. 530 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: I think that that's a pipeline issue, Dave. We don't 531 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: have the pipeline that the Democrats have. So I'm running 532 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 1: for school board. I mean, I can't believe I'm saying 533 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: that I'm still running for school board, but I am 534 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 1: still running for school board here in California and UM 535 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: the Dems have owned our school boards and they own 536 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 1: the curriculum, they own the unions, they own the education system. 537 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 1: And we've seen the gen Z came out hard, relatively speaking, 538 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: in a term election and it did make a difference. Well, 539 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: they've been curating those voters for twelve years before those 540 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: kids get to the voting bots. A GOP has no 541 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: long term plan, so we don't have a pipeline. We 542 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 1: don't have a long term strategy to get those voters. 543 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: So these what I'm saying is these kids are being 544 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 1: educated to believe that politics are their identity, that who 545 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: they have sex with is their identity, and that that 546 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: must be protected at all costs. So if we want 547 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: to compete on that level, we've got to change the pipeline. 548 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: We at least got to get one started. Yes, I agree, 549 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: And I think in general, the Republican Party and the 550 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: conservative movement struggle in urban areas. I think there's some 551 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: structural reasons for that. Which is that if you're choosing 552 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: to live in a small area with nine million people 553 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: in it, you're giving up some of your rights. I mean, 554 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: you just have to right. There have to be zoning laws. 555 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: There have to be. It doesn't work otherwise. But I 556 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: don't think that means that a conservative message can't succeed. 557 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: In fact, four of those districts flipped in New York. 558 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: We're in the New York metro area. So yeah, I 559 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: agree with you. We need to do a much better 560 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: job in these places. Kira Dave wishing you guys the best. 561 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: Hope to see it close to me soon. Thanks for COVID, 562 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me buddy. Thanks Jesse. All Right, we're 563 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:38,479 Speaker 1: not done yet here. I think the Republican Party is 564 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: sort of this extremist, anti science, nativist, you know, embracing 565 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 1: white supremacist insurrectionist party at this point, white nationalists, anarchists, 566 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: whatever in this country that are using mass mandates and 567 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: a public health crisis to sort of wage chaos. Domestic 568 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: terrorism from white supremacists is the most lethal terrorist threat 569 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: and the homeland. What I know is the law, and 570 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: what I know is what white people are willing to 571 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: do to defend white supremacy. Like the roots of the 572 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: anti abortion movement, these bands are rooted in patriarchy and 573 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:21,800 Speaker 1: white supremacy. Joining me now, Jeffrey Tucker, Founder and President 574 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: of the Brownstone Institute, Jeff Jeffrey, I talk all the 575 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: time about national divorce that I already see happening. Is 576 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: very clear. We are separating and frankly should separate. They 577 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: hate me, to be honest, feel the same about them. 578 00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: Why do we have to live together? The idea of 579 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: this country was that we didn't have to all marry 580 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 1: each other, right, and that was never so. Therefore the 581 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: divorce was never necessary. The idea is that you have 582 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,320 Speaker 1: a small government that allows maximum freedom for everybody and 583 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: doesn't allow people to have to push each other around 584 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 1: or impose their values on each other. Under that kind 585 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: of system, it really works. But once you establish a 586 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 1: unitary state and put you know, one power in charge, 587 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:09,280 Speaker 1: you're going to have infinite struggles about what the values 588 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: and parities of that power is going to be. So 589 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: I blame a lot of the so called divisions in 590 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: this country on that power struggle to control. I mean, 591 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 1: the easy answer here would be to restore a constitutional 592 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: system with extreme federalism and decentralized control and let everybody 593 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: just do their thing, you know, as they say, as 594 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,440 Speaker 1: long as you're not hurting other people, you're good to go. 595 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: But that's that's not where we're headed. So that's what 596 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: I would blame all the divisions in this country on. 597 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 1: Is just this this mega state and the struggle to control. 598 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: Totally agree with you, So let me ask you a 599 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: hard question. I mean, we on the right, we love 600 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 1: the Constitution. I do too, Bill rights. Everybody knows that freedom, 601 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: limited government, all these things. Do we get it wrong 602 00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: in the beginning? And I realize what America was and 603 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 1: how wonderful it was, But doesn't it make it inevitable 604 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: that if you have a live and let live country, 605 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: that you were eventually going to be infected with some 606 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 1: kind of ideology that doesn't go along with any live 607 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,760 Speaker 1: and let live stuff. In fact, they want to dominate. 608 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: Wasn't Isn't that just human nature? Well? It maybe, But 609 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: I do think that the Constitution was a noble experiment. 610 00:36:23,239 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: You know, it grew out of an Enlightenment philosophy, and 611 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: we did our best. They did their best to try 612 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,640 Speaker 1: to restrain the state with a piece of parchment. A 613 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: lot of things went wrong in the meantime. Of course, 614 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: there were some problems from the very beginning, you know, 615 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: among which slavery, but many others. And unfortunately, over the 616 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: last hundred years especially, we've seen the rise of administrative states. 617 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: So that's a very interesting case, right, because we know 618 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: who's in charge of this country right now. It's not 619 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 1: elected to politicians, is the permanent bureaucrats, right so, and 620 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,840 Speaker 1: they're four and thirty five agencies that rule without oversight 621 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 1: really effectively from court, since certainly not from the elected 622 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: branches of the government. That thing is not in the constitution, right, 623 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: So a return to the constitution would actually fix probably 624 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: eighty of the problems of this country. I mentioned one 625 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: other thing too that I think is really interesting, and 626 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 1: I wonder if you've thought about this, But the map, 627 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 1: the electoral map that was off in the midterm, showed 628 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 1: a lot of geography that was painted red and then 629 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 1: just little tiny cities in each state that were painted blue, right, 630 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: And that was a very strange thing. We've seen this, 631 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: you know, again and again in many elections over the ban. 632 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: If it were not for the seventeenth Amendment, that would 633 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:48,240 Speaker 1: not be happening. Seventeenth Amendment allowed for the directional election 634 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 1: of senators and in effect allowed big urban centers to 635 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: swamp the political influence of everybody who lives outside of 636 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: the majorities. In the large major cities are determining everything. 637 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 1: In New York would have two red centers if the 638 00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:07,160 Speaker 1: seventeenth Amendment were not passed. So the idea of a 639 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,960 Speaker 1: bicameral system of Congress is that one was supposed to 640 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: be elected directly by the people, and the other was 641 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: appointed by the state legislatures that themselves were representative of 642 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 1: the whole geography and the whole people of the state, 643 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: so that you wouldn't get this strange bias towards urban 644 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: centers dominating and basically oppressing everybody else. So that was 645 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 1: the seventeenth Amendment, and that it's not really a source 646 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: of controversy. I think it probably should be because it 647 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: massively distorted the way the US Congress works. Now, the 648 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 1: eighteenth Amendment got rid of implemented alcohol prohibition, and the 649 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 1: nineteenth Amendment repealed that. So we have a precedent in 650 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: this country for recognizing when we've made a constitutional era. 651 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,879 Speaker 1: I would say the seventeenth Amendment is one of those 652 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 1: things if we I mean really just the elections the 653 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: other day would have tried to very differently without that 654 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: little distorting twist that happened with the seventeenth of Member, 655 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: which I think was only passed in the nineteen thirteen Well, 656 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: how do we undo it then? If we're never going 657 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: to have a supermajority in that way by enough places. 658 00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, it's one thing to say repeal it, 659 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: and I agree with you on how do we do that? Well, 660 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,719 Speaker 1: one thing, I think we need to start talking about it. 661 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,399 Speaker 1: That's one deal. But and also we need to get 662 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: reasonable people back in charge of the Senate, which I 663 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 1: think you know, it might have happened this time. We've 664 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,600 Speaker 1: played our card rights, but it didn't happen at just 665 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 1: means that we're going to put it off. In the future. 666 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: I think the crisis in this country is going to 667 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: get bad enough that we can get majorities that are 668 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: sensible and ready and brave and can make the requisite 669 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 1: change that we need. The kinds of change we need 670 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,400 Speaker 1: is towards a more decentralized system of dismantling of the 671 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,680 Speaker 1: administrative structures in the state, restoration of the bicameral system 672 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 1: of Congress, in other words, really restore that original constitution 673 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 1: of the way they imagine things. And you know, I 674 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: hear a hint of despair in your voice, and I 675 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: think you're speaking for many people, many viewers. I mean, 676 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 1: we've all I've been to several social occasions since last Tuesday, 677 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 1: and everybody's really down in the dubs right now. I'm 678 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: not talking about die hard Republicans. We're not talking about 679 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: you know, card carrying gop Rah rah Rah types. So 680 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,959 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just talking about like regular people who 681 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: really want their lives back and want their liberties back, 682 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,279 Speaker 1: and went the normal country that they remember just from 683 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: a few years ago back, and they wonder if the 684 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: electoral system is even free of corruption enough to give 685 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 1: us an honest result anymore, or if we're you know this, 686 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: are we permanently doomed a lot of sadness out there 687 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 1: these days? And look, because you nawed it for me, 688 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 1: I'm going to it. Yeah, No, everybody is. And uh 689 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: and I'm not here to you know, true people up early. 690 00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: That's not my job. However, I would say that, I 691 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,479 Speaker 1: would say that if we are going to make a fix, 692 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: the primary way to fix it is through influencing our families, 693 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 1: our friends, and our communities towards believing that life can 694 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: be better than it is right now. And the best 695 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 1: way to reform it is to restore the ideals of freedom. 696 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: Like we've got to get back to that. Those clips 697 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: you played at the beginning of the show, we're just 698 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: really frankly appalling. I mean, we've got we've got a 699 00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: strange ideology and loose loosen this land, which is summed 700 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 1: up by this this term woke, you know, which which 701 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: doesn't believe in freedom, doesn't believe in free speech, doesn't 702 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 1: believe in any of the things that actually founded this country, 703 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 1: any of the values that we actually believe in. It's 704 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: it's a quasi Marxist outlook. A lot of it is 705 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 1: rooted in fakery. I mean, I don't know if you've 706 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: been following the case of the FTX scandal and Sam 707 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: Bankman freed. But he's a hilarious figure who learned out 708 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: very quickly that he only needs to learn to mouth, 709 00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: you know, five or six woke cliches, and he could 710 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 1: get billions and VC funding port on his head. And 711 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 1: he was running an obvious scam but but in his 712 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 1: his text messages that have been uh really easing, he 713 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: said he always knew it was just he said it was. 714 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 1: It was all a big hoax in the very beginning. 715 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 1: Woke ideology is nothing other than a shivelf that is 716 00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 1: invented to to trick trick people into thinking you're a 717 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,000 Speaker 1: virtuous person that you're actually engaged in in uh and 718 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: robberies and scams and schemes. So I thought that was 719 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 1: a hilarious admission on his part because we all know 720 00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 1: it's true. We know it's true. It's just things people say. 721 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Tucker, please come back soon. That was outstanding, Thank 722 00:43:05,280 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 1: you sir.

I gotta get him back more. 724 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:30,799 Speaker 1: All right, Final thoughts next. I know a lot of 725 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 1: that might hurt to hear. Not easy. Divorce ain't easy. 726 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 1: It's hard, especially when you're a patriot as you probably are. 727 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: You love the country. I love the country. It hurts 728 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: just to understand when I talk about this, I see 729 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: where this is going, and it's not a pretty place. 730 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: And when it really gets to that ugly place where 731 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: this is going, when we do as a nation when 732 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: we get there. You were going to want to be 733 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 1: on the right side of the line when we get there. 734 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,839 Speaker 1: Believe me when I tell you that. All Right, all right, 735 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 1: we'll do it again. Each morning, the President of the 736 00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 1: United States receives a highly classified briefing on the most 737 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: important issues facing the country. It's called the President's Daily Brief, 738 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 1: or PDB. It's delivered by America's spies and analysts. Well, 739 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 1: now you can hear your very own PDB in the 740 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,919 Speaker 1: form of a podcast hosted by me Brian Dean Wright, 741 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: a former CIA operations officer.
