1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,680 Speaker 1: All right, news, roundup information, overload our toll free on 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: numbers eight hundred ninety four one sean if you want 3 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. The great migration 4 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 1: that has begun out of these blue states, deep blue 5 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 1: states like New Yalka, New Jersey and Illinois and California 6 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 1: just continues, and for good reason. People are sick and 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: tired of endless bureaucracy. Now, Governor Ron DeSantis put out 8 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: a big ex post today saying that property taxes effectively 9 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: require homeowners to pay rent to the government. Constitutional protections 10 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,279 Speaker 1: for Florida homeowners require approval of voters in twenty twenty six. 11 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 1: In the meantime, Florida's needed relief. I am today proposing 12 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 1: a plan that will result on average one thousand dollars 13 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: rebate check for each homestead as a discount on their 14 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: property taxes if the legislature acts on this plan. Now, 15 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: we can get this done this year. Let's get it 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: done for the people of Florida this session. And the 17 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: President and the Governor's pushing very very hard for this now. Also, 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 1: along with all of the investments that Donald Trump is 19 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 1: bringing into the country, there is a reason why states 20 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: like Florida, Texas, Tennessee, South Carolina, a few others. They 21 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 1: keep drawing industry into their home states because they make 22 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: it a business friendly environment. In the state of Florida, 23 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: for example, they are adopting Doge like cuts. We'll talk 24 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: to the governor about that, but they're also the governor 25 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: mentioned manufacturing continues to grow all over the state of Florida, 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: which means that's high paying career jobs for American workers. 27 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: In this case, Floridians that want great jobs, career jobs 28 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: for themselves and other loved ones. Listen. 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: When I became governor, we set a goal of increasing 30 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 2: the number of manufacturing businesses and jobs in the state 31 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: of Florida, and I'm happy to report we have succeeded 32 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 2: beyond our wildness expectation. Since twenty nineteen, Florida has added 33 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: almost fifty thousand new manufacturing jobs, and over the same 34 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: period of time, we've increased the number of manufacturing businesses 35 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: in the Sunshine State by more than thirty percent. These 36 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: are good jobs, these are strong businesses. We need to 37 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 2: be making things in the United States, and there's no 38 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: better place to make things than the free State of Florida. 39 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: Anyway, Governor Ron de Santos joins US Now. Governor, great 40 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: to talk to you. How are you. 41 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 3: We're doing really good, Sean. We're just rocking and rolling. 42 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 3: I really appreciate you highlighting the growth in manufacturing jobs, 43 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 3: because as President Trump works to put America first, he 44 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 3: stressed the need to have a strong manufacturing base. That's 45 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,399 Speaker 3: something that we've been seeking to do in Florida since 46 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: the time I became governor. And to have over fifty 47 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: thousand manufacturing jobs created over a six year period with 48 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 3: a third thirty three percent increase in manufacturing businesses, We've 49 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: really never seen anything like that. Florida had always been 50 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 3: more of an agriculture and tourism state, and we still 51 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: do those things well, but we are continuing to expand 52 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 3: our manufacturing footprint. And you know, I think the US 53 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 3: needs to be able to produce good products and make things, 54 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: and we certainly think in the state of Florida, we're 55 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 3: an ideal location for folks that want to be productive 56 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 3: and they want to be treated well. You know, Sean, 57 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 3: you've come from New York and have talked about how 58 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,119 Speaker 3: pleasant it's been. I've got guys that have moved businesses 59 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 3: from New York, and the things that they'll tell me is, 60 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 3: you know, you feel like in Florida they actually want 61 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 3: you to succeed. In New York, they feel you feel 62 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 3: like you're a burden, just the fact that you're trying 63 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: to do business. And so we've really fostered that culture 64 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 3: and it's paid off and more opportunities for our citizens. 65 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: I mean, we had the Attorney General, James Ethmeyer on 66 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: the program earlier today talking about the Tesla takedown and 67 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: how the law enforcement in Florida has been instructed that 68 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: they're not going to put up with with any disorderly conduct, 69 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: any acts of domestic terrorism. And they were all over 70 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: every Tesla dealership all around the state this weekend. And meanwhile, 71 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: you had all this trouble around the country and other 72 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: states they tend to be blue states where the fund dismantled, 73 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: no bail law mentalities exist. We didn't have any major 74 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 1: incidents in the state of Florida. That's because you, yeah, look. 75 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 3: That goes back to the beginning. I mean, when I 76 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 3: came in, we rejected all the jail break legislation that 77 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 3: the Blue states were doing. You know, we weren't going 78 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: to get rid of bail. We weren't going to lower penalties, 79 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 3: we weren't going to let people out, and certainly not 80 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 3: going to allow California style policy Gen go in and 81 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: loot a store for nine hundred and ninety nine dollars. 82 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 3: Then when the BLM riots were happening in Minnesota and elsewhere, 83 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: we said, not happening in Florida. You will be held accountable, 84 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 3: and as a result, you didn't see cities burning down 85 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 3: in Florida. We've also enacted legislation that penalizes people if 86 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 3: they riot, if they block traffic, if they do all 87 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 3: this stuff. So when you had the Hamas people try 88 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 3: to take over a street in Miami, they were on 89 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 3: the street for thirteen minutes before they got dragged off 90 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 3: that street. We had another one in Orlando. Florida Highway 91 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 3: Patrol beat Miami's record. They got them off in eleven minutes. 92 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 3: This is like hundred Hamas people and they're just taken off. 93 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 3: And then you have situations like Tesla. Nobody in their 94 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 3: right mind is going to want to do this in 95 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,159 Speaker 3: Florida because you will be abled accountable, very swiftly and 96 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: very severely. And the result of all this, Sean we 97 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 3: support law enforcement all this. We have a fifty year 98 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 3: low in the crime rate of the state of Florida, 99 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 3: and so the leadership matters, the policy matters. But what's 100 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 3: going on with the left. If anyone on the right 101 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 3: did even a fraction of this stuff, you know, you 102 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 3: had Antifa creating mayhem for years, the BLM riots, unbelievable, 103 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 3: the Tesla stuff, and they think they could just skate 104 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: on all this because in these blue jurisdictions they don't 105 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: get held accountable. There's a major double standard. We don't 106 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 3: obviously accept that in Florida. The Trump administration doesn't accept that, 107 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 3: even though the Biden administration did. But this is terrorism. 108 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 3: When you're going after the Tesla dealerships. 109 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: Can you just list quickly that the categories in which 110 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: Florida is number one. I know you're number one in 111 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: education nationwide, but in a lot of areas. You've become number. 112 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 3: One economy two years in a row by CNBC, and 113 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 3: I think you and I sean No, CNBC does not 114 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: want to rank Florida one. They would rather someone of 115 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: the state do that. We're also number one in higher education. 116 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 3: Our public university system is ranked number one in the 117 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: United states. And part of the reason we are is 118 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: because I have not allowed any tuition increases at our 119 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 3: state universities, and so Florida residents pay about sixty three 120 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 3: hundred dollars to go to really strong universities. We've got 121 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 3: four public universities in the top fifty public universities in 122 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 3: the entire country. We're close to the lowest in crime reduction. 123 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 3: We're close to the lowest, if not lowest, in tax burden. 124 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 3: We do have the lowest per capita debt of any 125 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,040 Speaker 3: state in the United States of America. We're number one 126 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: in entrepreneurship, new business formations, and talent development, and probably 127 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 3: some other ones. But yeah, sometimes it's hard to lose 128 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 3: track because we've got, you know, a lot of good 129 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: stuff that's happening. But yeah, we're proud of the success 130 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 3: we obviously you'll have more work to do, but it's 131 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: been it's been great to be able to put the 132 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 3: points on the board. 133 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: If I'm correct, I believe this mass migration away from 134 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: blue states with high taxes and burdensome regulation is going 135 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: to continue. You also have the age issue. There's still 136 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: people that are baby boomers that for whatever reason, they're 137 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: tied to to some of these blue states. So I 138 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: would argue there's probably a ten to fifteen year window 139 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: minimum in which this migration to Florida is going to happen. Now, 140 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: I don't think these are bad problems, the result of 141 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: which has resulted in much higher property values for people. 142 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: That means and that becomes for most people, that's their 143 00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: biggest investment. 144 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: This you've seen this too. I mean, when people when 145 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: there's a demand to come, and there has been Look, 146 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,400 Speaker 3: there's always been people that have moved. You know, you're 147 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 3: going to retire from Minnesota, warmer weather or whatever. I 148 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 3: think what's happened more recently is we've drawn a very 149 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: sharp contrast with the left on how to govern a state, 150 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 3: and so that has really accelerated it. And so you know, 151 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 3: some Floridians in many ways have benefited because they're homes 152 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 3: that maybe they purchased twenty years ago. The value has 153 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 3: gone up tremendously. That's the number one source of wealth 154 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 3: that many Floridians have. But you know, the flip side 155 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 3: of that is as property values are higher, people do 156 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 3: get hit from the local level with higher property taxes, 157 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 3: and the local government say, oh, we're not reincreasing the millage, 158 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 3: but if you're assessing the property at much higher levels, 159 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 3: even with the homestead protection, people are still getting hit. 160 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 3: And it's an unrealized gain because until someone actually does 161 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 3: a transaction with you, you don't know exactly how much 162 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 3: your house is worth. It's a guess. And so people 163 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 3: that have purchased this, particularly some of our senior citizens 164 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 3: many years ago, are now facing this. If you have 165 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: to move at some point to another place in Florida, 166 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: you're buying at higher levels and the tax basis is higher. 167 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 3: So this has been one of the main things that 168 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 3: have pinched folks as we've been in an inflation area 169 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 3: economy under Biden. I think it's going to get better 170 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 3: under a President Trump, but this is where really they 171 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 3: need relief. And so that's why we're working on the 172 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: property tax relief because I think it's answering one of 173 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 3: the main things may one of the main challenges that 174 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 3: Fluritians are having. 175 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: The first question everybody would ask is Okay, if you're 176 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: successful in getting this on the ballot and it was 177 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,599 Speaker 1: approved by voters, and you would need sixty percent of 178 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: voters to approve it, in twenty twenty six. I don't 179 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: really know many people they are going to vote for 180 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: a higher property taxes. I just don't, so I think 181 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: it's the odds of a passing would be pretty high. 182 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: Do I think special interest would probably try and lie 183 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: to people and manipulate them into thinking somehow a tax 184 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: cut on their property taxes would be bad. But if 185 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:14,080 Speaker 1: you look at different municipalities because of the reevaluation of properties, 186 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: this has now become a big issue in Florida, and 187 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: then the question is, well, how do you make up 188 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: the revenue if in the last four years these local towns, 189 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: municipalities have been able to especially in the coastal areas, 190 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: double triple the amount of revenue they're taking in every year. 191 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 3: Well, that's what we're doing, is we're working with the 192 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: legislature in this legislative session to provide legislative authorization for 193 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 3: us to doze local governments. So we will send in 194 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 3: dose team to these counties and some of the bigger 195 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 3: municipalities have lawful authority to have the keys to the 196 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 3: kingdom to be able to go in look at their 197 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,560 Speaker 3: systems that contracts all this stuff. And I think what 198 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 3: we'll be able to show is we're one. We know 199 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: we'll be able to show that you've seen a massive 200 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 3: growth in the budgets in these places over the last 201 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 3: five or six years. And so they say, oh, if 202 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 3: you do the property tax, we're not going to be 203 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 3: That's not true. They've voted. So you can absolutely reduce 204 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 3: these budgets. And so when people ask what's going to happen, Yeah, 205 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 3: you need to reduce budgets, but you also have an 206 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 3: ability to shift the tax In Florida is unique because 207 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 3: we have so many visitors, we have so many part 208 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 3: time residents, we have so many foreign resident visitors who 209 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,439 Speaker 3: come in that you can shift the tax burden to 210 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 3: those sectors rather than Floridians. And so that would be 211 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: done more at the local level. But if you ask people, 212 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 3: would you rather not have to pay property taxes? If 213 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 3: that meant that Canadians and Brazilians maybe paid more hotel tax, 214 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 3: I think one hundred percent of Floridians would say that's 215 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 3: a trade that they would want to make. 216 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: Having traveled occasionally abroad, every single place I've ever been, 217 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: they charge massive amounts of money in taxes to foreigners. 218 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that that I think it's a 219 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 1: great innovative way to do it. So what does the 220 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: legislature have to do to make that happen? So this 221 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: becomes a referendum vote in twenty twenty six. 222 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 3: Well one, I mean, we want to do this tax 223 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 3: cut this year to give a bridge to next year. 224 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: But I think what'll happen is if we do do 225 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 3: the DOGE, we have the data, we're able to show, hey, 226 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 3: here's the way forward. You know, we're going to be 227 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 3: able to provide relief, We're going to be able to 228 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: have all this stuff functions. Still, then it goes on 229 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 3: the in front of the legislature next a spring, and 230 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: they need to get a certain certain majority supermajority to 231 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 3: pass it. And then it goes on the ballot in 232 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 3: November of twenty twenty six. And at that point it's 233 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 3: a sixty percent threshold, and you know, I mean, I 234 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 3: think that there's a good chance it'll pass. But these 235 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: things are these things are tricky. It's anything can get fifty, 236 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 3: but to get sixty you got to have really good, 237 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 3: good stuff. So there'll be a lot of distortions. But 238 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 3: that that's for another day. But yes, that would be 239 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 3: the process. Let's get it on the ballot for November 240 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 3: of twenty twenty six. And the reason why we have 241 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 3: to go on the ballot is just because although the 242 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 3: state has a small role in some of the proper 243 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: taxes that go to fund schools, this is this power 244 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 3: is vested in local governments. And so when you're getting 245 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 3: your tax bill, that's local government. That money is going 246 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 3: overwhelmingly to local government, and so we don't control that. 247 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 3: We don't control the valuations at the state level. That's 248 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 3: all being done locally. So that's why you need the 249 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: constitutional reform to give taxpayers the protection. 250 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: All right, quick break more with Florida Governor Rondo Santis 251 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: and then your calls on the other side. Eight one 252 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: hundred and nine to four one sewn. As we continue 253 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: this Monday straight ahead, tin you now, Governor Rondo Santis, 254 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: the free State of Florida is with us. Let me 255 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: give you a last question as we're running out of time. 256 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: Is it true that you are giving back money that 257 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 1: the federal government or you gave back a billion dollars 258 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: to the federal government that they gave the state of fee. 259 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 4: That's right, Toby. 260 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 1: I've never heard of any state ever doing that. 261 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 3: Well, Biden had woke strings attached to the money, even 262 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: the highway money. They wanted me to do tailpipe of mission. 263 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 3: I had to regulate people's tailpipe admission. I'm not going 264 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: to do that, Sean. Your tailpipe is your tailpipe. We're 265 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 3: going to keep the government out of that. But here's 266 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 3: the thing. Biden's people and then they wanted all this 267 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: refugee money for illegals, and we didn't want to do that, 268 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: so we tried to send it back to Biden. They 269 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 3: didn't know what to do. They didn't know how to 270 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 3: accept it. That had never happened before. So we went 271 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 3: a week and we met with Elon Musk and Elon's like, 272 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 3: wait a minute, you want to give us money back. 273 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, Biden wouldn't take it. He's like, 274 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 3: oh no, we'll figure it out. He got one of 275 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 3: his dose guys. 276 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll figure out how to take your money. That's 277 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 1: not a problem. Governor Ron DeSantis from my Free State 278 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: of Florida.

I think it was a 281 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: great picky. 282 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 3: Well should be very very glad that he's in there, and. 283 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: People in Daytona Beach and people in the Panhandle need 284 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: to vote tomorrow because we have the congressional seats up 285 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: for grabs, and these are two very vital seats for 286 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: Republicans in Washington.

Well, that's where Berner comes in. It is 295 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: the less lethal option that would be my first choice 296 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: instead of the lethal option. As a matter of fact, 297 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: I just got two brand new burners over the weekend 298 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: that have they have those little red dots in them.

That means you can't miss you. 300 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: That means you would shoot one hundred percent, which would 301 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: be you know, almost impossible under any other circumstances.

And oh, 331 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 1: I got to tell you a Tesla story because I 332 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: got the Tesla s Plaid and I'm now driving Linda. 333 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: So over the weekend I went to see The Chosen 334 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: because they have season five just came out the next 335 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: three weekends in a row. Actually they have this one 336 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: started with Jesus at the Last Supper. I mean, this 337 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: show is very, very powerful. I've watched it a couple 338 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 1: of times. You can get it on Apple if you 339 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,400 Speaker 1: want to watch seasons one through four. But they had 340 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: it in theaters this weekend, so I want to go 341 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: see the movie. Finish the movie out. Tesla's technology is 342 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: so sophisticated that I literally had the car that was parked, 343 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,399 Speaker 1: and I go on the Tesla app and I press 344 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: a button and the car unparks itself, there's no driver 345 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: in it, and drives to my location, sort of like 346 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 1: concierge's service. Wait a minute, Wait a minute, valet service. 347 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 5: Explain that again to your get out of the movie. 348 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: Okay, that's correct. I go on the Tesla app and 349 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: then my car. I just go on the Tesla app, 350 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,120 Speaker 1: I press a button and the car will unpark itself, 351 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: drive to me and pick me up like a valet would. 352 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: That's crazy, isn't it crazy? And then you even know 353 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 1: it could do that. I use the self driving mode 354 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: and it is incredible. I drove forty minutes on the 355 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 1: highway and I didn't I didn't put my foot on 356 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: the gas once. I didn't put I did not one 357 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: time touch the steering wheel. Let'spu Well, I do touch 358 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: it just a little bit, just to kind of keep 359 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: a little hold of it. Do you realize once I 360 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: picked up my phone, it gives a big alert. If 361 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: you pick up your phone two or three times, it'll 362 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 1: shut off the auto drive because it knows that you're 363 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: using your phone. How incredible is that? 364 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 5: Oh my god. 365 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: This thing goes from zero to sixty. That's over one 366 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 1: thousand horsepower, goes from zero to sixty in one point 367 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: nine to nine seconds. Is that incredible? 368 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 5: Honestly it's I thought that you love the Xoxo car, 369 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 5: but it sounds like this weekend you may have I don't. 370 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: Have an Xoxo car. Oh my gosh. Do you not 371 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: know what other car? I like? The Corvette z O 372 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 1: six with the Z seven package. Well, if you love it, 373 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: then you should love that. 374 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 5: I call it the Xoxo car. 375 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: Okay, this is now. And here's the interesting part. Watch 376 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: online if you google it. The Tesla s plaid in 377 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 1: races against the Corvette Z six, against the Bugatti, against 378 00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 1: the Lamborghini, against the Porsche. And this car is faster 379 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: than all of them. It beats them all. I've never. 380 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: I mean you almost feel like you have a G 381 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: force when you put it in supermote. That's how quick 382 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: this car is. I've never. And it's the tightest, you know, 383 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: driving car. You could take it on a racetrack tomorrow. 384 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: It's so incredible. 385 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, And what color did you get again? 386 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 5: Black on black? 387 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: I didn't, I didn't so if. 388 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 5: You want to drive it, like, if you want to 389 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,679 Speaker 5: drive it like you know, and not have self driving, 390 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 5: how do you do that? 391 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: You just drive? You start driving it and then if 392 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: you want to, if you put in your navigation what 393 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: your destination is, then you literally push a button. You'll 394 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: hold it for a second and then just tends to 395 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 1: self driving takes over. I mean, the weirdest thing that 396 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: just sit there and watch the steering wheel turn like 397 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: left and turn right and put the blinkers on for 398 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: you that does it all? Yeah, that's wild? And does it? 399 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 6: Now? 400 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 5: Let me ask you this and this, you know, try 401 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 5: to be honest. You know it's hard, but you know, 402 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 5: does it stay? 403 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 1: You know you can. You can actually set it up 404 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: to keep up with traffic, and that's what I do. 405 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 1: There is nobody in Florida that drives the speed limit. 406 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: It's actually dangerous if you do drive the speed limit, okay, 407 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: and I'm a very safe driver. So it changes lane 408 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 1: is on its own. It will change lanes for you. 409 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 5: That's insane, Okay, that's really. 410 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: Just to keep up with traffic. Let's say somebody's going 411 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: fifty five miles an hour. I'm stuck behind him. I 412 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 1: don't have to take it out of self driving mode. 413 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: It just changes lanes when it's safe and then it 414 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: will keep up with traffic for the rest of the 415 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: traffic on the on the highway. 416 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 5: So, now, when you were driving, what kind of looks 417 00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 5: were you getting? 418 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: No, I don't look at other people what I'm driving 419 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: to keep all. 420 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 5: The things that everybody was just like, the. 421 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: Most amazing thing was because I really don't believe in 422 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 1: texting and driving. I'm very I have a pretty strict 423 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: role about that. And I did pick up my phone 424 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: once because I wasn't it was in self drive mode, 425 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: like it knew immediately and it says, pay attention. It's incredible. 426 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I've never seen one. I've never driven once. I 427 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 5: really just don't know anything about it at all. 428 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 7: You know. 429 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: I had a couple of friends of mine that would 430 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: try to tell me how great it was, and I 431 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: just kind of blew them off. And now that now 432 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: that I'm all into this technology, it is. By the way, 433 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,439 Speaker 1: my reason for buying Tesla is because of the evil 434 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: that they're perpetrating against this guy. So I'm just I'm 435 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 1: just taking a stand. I stand as far as I'm 436 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: concerned he's he's a victim of domestic terrorism. I don't 437 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: want to see his employees lose their jobs. And I 438 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 1: needed a new car anyway, and so I figured, you 439 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,199 Speaker 1: know what, why don't I give one away? And I 440 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,639 Speaker 1: really want to support the company. And now that I 441 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: now that I understand how great this technology is. If 442 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: you think of every other car on the road, there's 443 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 1: nothing comparable to this. I know that there are cars 444 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: that will park for you. I know that there are 445 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: cars coming on the market that will have self driving capability, 446 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: but they all ripped off Elon Musk. It's not like 447 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,440 Speaker 1: they figured it out on their own. He just built 448 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,199 Speaker 1: this thing from nothing, and it's the fastest car on 449 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: the road, and it's it's the most American made car 450 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: on the road, which means American chops for every part. 451 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: Now I don't know anything about when I when I 452 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: when I met the salesperson who came over to show 453 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: me the car, they delivered the car to me and 454 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: I traded in another car. I'd made that deal with them. 455 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 1: And by the way, they don't even need to see 456 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: the car that the're you're trading in. They just want 457 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: to They want pictures. And then they want the my 458 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,239 Speaker 1: and that's it, and they want to know if it's 459 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: in an accident, then they do their own background check 460 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: on it. It's it's incredible. But could you get out 461 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:09,719 Speaker 1: of a busy movie theater you press a button and 462 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: the car comes to you and picks you up. 463 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 5: I mean, I have to say, you know, for me, 464 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 5: you know, just I mean, I don't have one, but 465 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,720 Speaker 5: I mean the whole idea that this guy has kind 466 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 5: of given his life to the country and has built 467 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 5: all these amazing I mean, he's not just creating American 468 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 5: jobs and you know, keeping everything American made, and then 469 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 5: he's got these awesome cars. 470 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 7: You know. 471 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 5: I was reading about this guy this weekend who was 472 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 5: in an accident with his daughter and he was in 473 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 5: a cyber truck and the police said, had you been 474 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 5: in any other car, they would have totally split the 475 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 5: car in half and you and your daughter would not 476 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 5: have made it. So he's like, oh my gosh. He's like, 477 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 5: I'm going out this week and I'm getting the cyber Beast. 478 00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 5: I guess there's another car the Cyberbeast. 479 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it just shows you. 480 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 5: I mean, it's like he's not just rescuing astronauts from 481 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 5: space and looking for life on Mars. But he's like 482 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 5: taking care of people here, you know, right now, everybody needs. 483 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: There's only two reasons he's hated. His relationship with Trump 484 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: and the fact that he has exposed waste fraud and 485 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 1: abuse at levels nobody ever dreamed of the creators of 486 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 1: waste fraud and abuse. Not just the wastefold abuse, it's 487 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: the people behind it. That's how they have and how 488 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: they basically have stolen the people's money and misappropriated it 489 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: and covered it up. They didn't put down Dei for Burma. 490 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 1: They didn't put down you know, garbage disposal for Vietnam. 491 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,959 Speaker 1: They didn't put down you know, forty million taxpair dollars 492 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 1: for Sesame Street in Iraq. They didn't put any of 493 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: these things down.

People that have no involvement in politics 519 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: at all. Working men and women that have career jobs 520 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: are at risk of losing them if they continue this. 521 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: That's number one. You keep firing bullets into Tesla dealerships, 522 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: somebody's going to get hit, and somebody's going to get hurt, 523 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,239 Speaker 1: and somebody might end up dying. You keep blowing up 524 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: tesla's and charging stations, people are going to get hurt. 525 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: That's a reason that there's a reason why we call 526 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: it domestic terrorism, because that's exactly what it is, domestic terrorism. 527 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: And it's got to end anyway.

Go 529 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: for it. 530 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 7: How are you good, Hi, Sean, how you doing today? 531 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: I'm good, good, good. 532 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 7: First of all, I just want to say you're definitely 533 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 7: the most powerful media man in the world. 534 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: So I think I don't know, I don't know about 535 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: that part, but yeah. 536 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 7: No, it's true. It's true, and I think it's great 537 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 7: you take calls. So my question is there was talk 538 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,199 Speaker 7: that Trump was going to try to do a reciprocity 539 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 7: for concealed carriers, which which I am and I think 540 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 7: you are too, and I want I'm. 541 00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: A concealed carry. Yeah, I think it should. I think 542 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: there should be reciprocity around the country. Yeah, I think 543 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:29,199 Speaker 1: that Second Amendment right is constitutional, and I think I 544 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: don't think states should be able to I think it 545 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: should be honored by every state. I think ultimately it's 546 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 1: going to be challenging the courts, and that's where it's 547 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: going to be decided. I think we'll win. 548 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 4: Do you know when about this this may go on? 549 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. My understanding is that there's a case 550 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: that was making its way up. I forget if the 551 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: court took it or not. If it does, you know, 552 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 1: I think that I think the odds are pretty high 553 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: that it would come out our way. You know, when 554 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: I left New York, I had to hand in my license, 555 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: I had to de register to vote, I had handed 556 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: my gun license. I mean, you have to do everything. 557 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 1: I did not want to hand in. You know, I 558 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: still have family in New York, so occasionally, very rarely, 559 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: I don't like to go up there at all. If 560 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: I do, I go in and I go out. You know, 561 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: I try and fly in and out the same day. 562 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: And I just don't want to spend a lot of 563 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: time there because I know that the tax people up 564 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 1: there want to come after me with the vengeance. Because 565 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: I know everybody down in Florida is harassed by New 566 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: York tax people, so I'm not giving them any reason 567 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: to come after me, and then they'll probably come after 568 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: me anyway, and I'll make. 569 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 7: It all very public, all right, Thank you, Sean. 570 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: All Right, buddy, I agree with you though, eight hundred 571 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: and ninety four one, Seawn.
