0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.560
<v Speaker 1>the Sean Hannity Radio Show podcast. So, like many of you,

0:00:06.640 --> 0:00:09.480
<v Speaker 1>I used to suffer from insomnia. No matter what I did,

<v Speaker 1>I just couldn't get a perfect night's sleep. Well, then

0:00:11.960 --> 0:00:14.400

<v Speaker 1>got me fitted for my very own my pillow, and

0:00:50.120 --> 0:00:53.479
<v Speaker 1>am I being taken out of here? This man is evil?

0:00:53.840 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Your evil? Do not? I said? Thank you so much

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>for being here for people? We what do we have

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.600
<v Speaker 1>to do. But you can't arrest me on work like

0:01:06.800 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>people don't get arrested. Wait a bit, what will But

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:23.119
<v Speaker 1>as attorney general? I just wanted to sit. They were

0:01:23.160 --> 0:02:04.240
<v Speaker 1>still listening. No, it's about gett MO. But but but I'm

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:35.480
<v Speaker 1>not sure. Now does not feel good? Yeah, you're familiar

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:56.440
<v Speaker 1>with Canada. We are America. You're all right that from

0:02:56.520 --> 0:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>the UH confirmation hearings in the Senate. You'd dish arry

0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 1>earlier today for Senator Jeff Sessions to be the Attorney general.

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 1>What did I predict yesterday? I predicted exactly every single

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>solitary argument that the left and liberals would make. It

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.519
<v Speaker 1>is so predictable, it is so mainstream now, it is

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:17.840
<v Speaker 1>the only thing in their playbook. You know, there's one

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.200
<v Speaker 1>interesting moment there because a lot of code pink ladies

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:22.920
<v Speaker 1>got thrown out of the hearings today, and you've got

0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:25.400
<v Speaker 1>people trying to put on white sheets and acting like

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.679
<v Speaker 1>their clan members and they got thrown out of there,

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.720
<v Speaker 1>and so on and so forth. And but that one

0:03:30.800 --> 0:03:35.839
<v Speaker 1>guy that said you're evil, You're evil. Now, I'm gonna

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:39.400
<v Speaker 1>The only reason I highlight that is there are democrats

0:03:39.560 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>in their heart of hearts they think if you are

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>a conservative and you don't believe in bigger government and

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:51.080
<v Speaker 1>a cradle to grave mentality and and wound to the tomb,

0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 1>that there is evil in you. And in spite of

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>all of the data that we have from the Jimmy

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Carter years and and the bombing years have been so

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 1>atrocious for every single demographic group in this country, millions

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>more in poverty, food stamps, out of work, not buying homes,

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:13.880
<v Speaker 1>where it's recovery, no growth, lowest labor participation. They can't

0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:17.119
<v Speaker 1>see that their policies failed. They will not be able

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.920
<v Speaker 1>to recognize it. I mean that's You're gonna see the

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:23.799
<v Speaker 1>President tonight. I'll start the show tonight and I'll say everything,

0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:26.880
<v Speaker 1>this is what the President didn't tell you, and he'll

0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:30.159
<v Speaker 1>talk about all his economic success and and he will

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:34.160
<v Speaker 1>whittle away, well, you know, one statistic while private sector

0:04:34.360 --> 0:04:37.480
<v Speaker 1>jobs or this sector job, or that sector, or this

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:41.520
<v Speaker 1>age group or that demographic, it's just all nonsense. Because

0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.920
<v Speaker 1>the reality is all those numbers I gave to you

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 1>all last year are as relevant today as ever. One

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:52.320
<v Speaker 1>of the most fascinating, fascinating developments since the election, or

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.200
<v Speaker 1>all of these companies that are deciding. You know what,

0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 1>I like the sound of what Donald Trump is saying.

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 1>I like going from one of the highest corporate tax

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 1>rates in the industrialized world to one of the lowest.

0:05:05.360 --> 0:05:07.640
<v Speaker 1>And as a result of that, you know, you see

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:11.800
<v Speaker 1>all of these car companies now deciding forward. And uh,

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I guess what was the other one? Fiat Chrysler and

0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 1>of course Carrier. And then we told you yesterday the

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:22.240
<v Speaker 1>story of this this billionaire guy, what's his name, um

0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the Ali Baba executive chairman Jack ma He's chatting with

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:30.679
<v Speaker 1>Trump how to create one million US jobs over five years.

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Trump is talking about allowing corporations to repatriate their money

0:05:35.080 --> 0:05:37.840
<v Speaker 1>at a low tem percent rate, not the thirty five

0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.920
<v Speaker 1>percent rate that we currently have. You know, you've got

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.839
<v Speaker 1>we're literally now all everything's on hold, and it's having

0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>an impact in other ways. Now Mexico is scared to death.

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Mexico now has seen three major companies in America now

0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 1>pledged to stop producing their cars, their air conditioners, their

0:05:57.960 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 1>products in Mexico. And they're taking those factories and they're

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>going to build in Michigan. They're going to build in Detroit,

0:06:05.400 --> 0:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>They're going to build in Wisconsin. And Ohio and Pennsylvania.

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 1>And then if once you open up energy independence on

0:06:12.320 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>top of that, there's no telling how big this could get.

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:19.280
<v Speaker 1>So now, immediately, immediately, what did Donald Trump say? I

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:22.120
<v Speaker 1>played it last night on TV. I said, Donald Trump said, yeah,

0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.680
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna appropriate money for the wall. But I asked

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:26.799
<v Speaker 1>him during the campaign, I said, well, you don't expect

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Mexico to write a check to you. They're not gonna

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>pay for the wall. I said, no, they're not gonna

0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>pay for it that way. They're gonna pay for it

0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:36.080
<v Speaker 1>this way. And then he talked about renegotiating NAFTA and

0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>other trade deals, and he talked about how much money

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:42.600
<v Speaker 1>we would save and by incentivizing companies to stay, how

0:06:42.680 --> 0:06:45.520
<v Speaker 1>that will increase our our tax based money coming into

0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:48.360
<v Speaker 1>the country, putting more people to work, less people dependent

0:06:48.440 --> 0:06:50.760
<v Speaker 1>on government. And it just works. It's called the free market.

0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 1>So Mexico's new Farm Relations secretary he wants to start

0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 1>talks with Donald Trump immediately about NAFTA and about the

0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.640
<v Speaker 1>wall all and he wants to talk about the wall

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:07.160
<v Speaker 1>because he sees all of these companies now being incentivized

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>with the hope that that our federal government is going

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>to be a partner, you know, the guy from Carrier.

0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's gonna have a problem if there's

0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 1>a bureaucratic regulation that's killing the air conditioning business. To

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.360
<v Speaker 1>get on the phone directly with the President of the

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:26.880
<v Speaker 1>United States and say, hey, remember me, I'm the guy

0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 1>that made a deal with you, and I said, I'm

0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 1>not gonna send those jobs to Mexico. I need your

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 1>help because this is becoming cost prohibitive what they're doing

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:39.600
<v Speaker 1>to the economy, and then hence jobs will be able

0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:42.960
<v Speaker 1>to remain here. You know, Apple announced now they are

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.440
<v Speaker 1>seeking to expand manufacturing in Arizona. Good for Arizona. They

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>deserve it. You know, you've got the You've got all

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.880
<v Speaker 1>of these federal workers. Now they're preparing for cuts under Trump.

0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I love Rand. Paul's going to join us later on

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.360
<v Speaker 1>the program. Rand has produced a budget unlike I have

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:01.880
<v Speaker 1>no idea why. He only got fourteen of his colleagues

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>to support a deal that would balance the budget in

0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:07.800
<v Speaker 1>five years, which included, by the way, a freeze on

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:10.280
<v Speaker 1>federal spending. It with some flexibility. If you want to

0:08:10.280 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 1>spend more on defense, you'd have to cut in this area. Instead,

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:16.200
<v Speaker 1>there's certainly a lot of waste, fraud, and abuse in government.

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Why would Republicans when they have control of all three

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>branches of government. They have the House, they have the Senate,

0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.840
<v Speaker 1>they have the presidency in the White House. Why are

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.840
<v Speaker 1>they over ten years going to raise the debt by

0:08:27.000 --> 0:08:29.920
<v Speaker 1>ten trillion dollars. I thought they were the party of

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.640
<v Speaker 1>limited government. I thought they were the party of balanced budgets.

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Now there is a way to pay for infrastructure, but

0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:37.880
<v Speaker 1>you gotta pay for it as you go. Maybe some

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 1>of that money comes from energy and the jobs that

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 1>are created and the taxes that are involved. Maybe some

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:47.000
<v Speaker 1>of that money comes from repatriated money back into the country,

0:08:47.520 --> 0:08:49.280
<v Speaker 1>and you can take a certain percentage of that and

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:53.760
<v Speaker 1>earmark that towards whatever infrastructure spending you want. But I

0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:57.079
<v Speaker 1>hope they so dramatically change and shift how we do

0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:01.480
<v Speaker 1>things in Washington will be so awesome. Imagine you take

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 1>any any project that you want for infrastructure, and rather

0:09:07.440 --> 0:09:10.679
<v Speaker 1>than allowing that money to go through Congress in their

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>greedy hands in the bureaucracy, you know what if we

0:09:14.320 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>had an independent board of business people that would prioritize

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:22.959
<v Speaker 1>what the projects are in all fifty states, and then

0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:26.679
<v Speaker 1>from there appropriate the funds and take it away from

0:09:26.720 --> 0:09:30.040
<v Speaker 1>the federal government, give it directly to the states, with

0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:34.080
<v Speaker 1>a mandate that they complete the task on time, under budget,

0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:37.040
<v Speaker 1>or they don't get any more federal money. There are

0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:40.920
<v Speaker 1>ways to incentivize, incentivize people to do it well. Fiat

0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Chrysler announced the huge US investment they're pulling out. They're

0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:49.160
<v Speaker 1>gonna invest a billion dollars in two US factories in Michigan,

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:53.480
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna start producing their pick up trucks and

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 1>and hot selling SUVs and get out of producing small

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.880
<v Speaker 1>and mid sized cars. Ford is going to move their

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:01.080
<v Speaker 1>plant back to the United States that they were sending,

0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:03.600
<v Speaker 1>but a billion dollars is going to be spent by

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Fiat Chrysler in Michigan. Ohio, by the way, is gonna

0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:10.760
<v Speaker 1>get another two thousand jobs out of this deal. Here's

0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:13.640
<v Speaker 1>an interesting side note. I want to know about the economy,

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.559
<v Speaker 1>want to know about liberalism and it's spectacular failure. It's

0:10:17.600 --> 0:10:21.040
<v Speaker 1>not that hard. There's a story in the Fiscal Times

0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.240
<v Speaker 1>that says, oh, Chicago and New York, two of the

0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:30.240
<v Speaker 1>most liberal cities, two of the most big government liberal

0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:34.000
<v Speaker 1>cities in the country are in the worst financial shape

0:10:34.520 --> 0:10:37.920
<v Speaker 1>among large US cities. Now why is that because they

0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.559
<v Speaker 1>spend more than they take in. You look at the

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.760
<v Speaker 1>amount of money as for example, eight million people living

0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>in New York and just the amount of money they

0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:49.360
<v Speaker 1>get in city taxes and state taxes. And you know,

0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:52.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean they taxed you everywhere but loose in New York.

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:56.720
<v Speaker 1>There's a death tax federally, a ten percent death tax

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:58.719
<v Speaker 1>in the state of New York. I think even have

0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 1>a city death tax. And you end up with like

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:04.679
<v Speaker 1>forty cents of every dollar that you already paid taxes

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:08.240
<v Speaker 1>on the first time. And government feels they can take

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:11.640
<v Speaker 1>their greedy hands and put it in your pocket. You know,

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.320
<v Speaker 1>l A Los Angeles and other liberal city they need

0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:17.120
<v Speaker 1>to borrow millions of dollars to cover all the legal

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:21.079
<v Speaker 1>payouts that they're paying. Who can afford this? Anyway, back

0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:25.880
<v Speaker 1>to the everything that I predicted, I'm not as um

0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:29.439
<v Speaker 1>alarmed as I might have been yesterday. But after I

0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:32.959
<v Speaker 1>played Clarence Thomas, and after I played Robert Bork, and

0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.160
<v Speaker 1>after I played a history of the Democrats, playing the

0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:39.319
<v Speaker 1>race card, and watching the hearings today, I mean, it

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:43.719
<v Speaker 1>was every single thing that I predicted, and it all

0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 1>happened before your eyes today. Notice how the Democratic Party,

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 1>the left wing of this party is so worked up

0:11:50.800 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 1>over the ku Klux Klan. Remember last summer, Donald Trump

0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:57.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't announce David Duke fast enough. I honestly don't think

0:11:58.000 --> 0:12:00.599
<v Speaker 1>he knew who David Duke was. I really he believed that.

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:02.719
<v Speaker 1>But and you say, well, why didn't he know? He

0:12:02.800 --> 0:12:06.240
<v Speaker 1>should have known? Not really? You know who follows what

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 1>these these idiots radicals are saying and doing. Nobody cares.

0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:15.439
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty old news, David Duke. Anyway, you got the

0:12:15.480 --> 0:12:18.240
<v Speaker 1>Code Pink demonstrators showing up at Jeff Sessions and the

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 1>confirmation hearings dressed up in white sheets and hoods. You know,

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>where are all these crusaders for racial tolerance when Democrats

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:30.920
<v Speaker 1>made a genuine card carrying former clan member President pro

0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:34.079
<v Speaker 1>tem of the U. S. Senate. Where were they when

0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Robert KKK Bird was third in line for the presidency.

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember any protests by Code Pink when that happened.

0:12:42.120 --> 0:12:44.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember the Reverend Al Sharpton calling it a

0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:48.480
<v Speaker 1>nightmare when his fellow left wingers made a one time

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 1>clan recruiter, the most powerful Democrat in Congress. Where was

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:56.559
<v Speaker 1>code pink this election season? When Hillary blurted out that

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 1>former Klansman Robert Bird had been her mentor in the

0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:04.400
<v Speaker 1>US Senate, referring to her first year as a senator

0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:06.520
<v Speaker 1>in two thousand and one. The same year, by the way,

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:10.000
<v Speaker 1>that Robert Bird blurted out the N word to Tony

0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Snow on national TV, not once, but twice. Where was

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.360
<v Speaker 1>the Congressional Black Caucus when that happened. Where was Jesse Jackson?

0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Why were they all silent? Here's a guy that actually

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:26.760
<v Speaker 1>prosecuted the clan successfully on multiple occasions, Jeff Sessions, and

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:29.160
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't get credit. Here's a guy that stood up

0:13:29.200 --> 0:13:33.800
<v Speaker 1>for the freedom marchers and Rosa Parks and every instance

0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:36.840
<v Speaker 1>that is like voting rights going back to the seventies

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 1>and eighties, and he did so successfully. And yet he

0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.920
<v Speaker 1>asked to answer these assinine questions and this dog and

0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:46.640
<v Speaker 1>pony show at the Senate Judiciary Committee. You know, where's

0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 1>the outrage? You see what I always call it selective

0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 1>moral outrage by the Democratic Party. Anyway, eight nine one,

0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:56.319
<v Speaker 1>Shawn is a to free telephone number. All right, So

0:13:56.480 --> 0:14:00.040
<v Speaker 1>Corey Booker yes, he makes up little green men in

0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 1>his head. What is that? How do you make up

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:05.280
<v Speaker 1>a composite of all these different people that you've run

0:14:05.360 --> 0:14:08.679
<v Speaker 1>into and tell a story with such passion as he

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:12.160
<v Speaker 1>has been telling. Anyway, what we played for you earlier?

0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 1>That was back in February of what when Jeff Sessions

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:19.640
<v Speaker 1>partnered with Booker to award the Congressional Gold Medal to

0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 1>those that participated in the sixty Voting Rights Act and

0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:27.360
<v Speaker 1>march from Selma to Montgomery. And just like he did

0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:30.040
<v Speaker 1>for the Freedom Writers in nine six one, and just

0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 1>like he did for Rosa Parks, and Booker said, I

0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>feel blessed and honored to have partnered with Senators Sessions

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:40.040
<v Speaker 1>and being the Senate sponsors of this important award. This

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:43.160
<v Speaker 1>is truly one of my life's greatest moments. I am

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 1>humble to be able to participate here and paying tribute

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:51.920
<v Speaker 1>to some of the extraordinary Americans whose footsteps paved the

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 1>way for me and my generation. I feel blessed an

0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.520
<v Speaker 1>honor to have partnered with Senator Sessions in being the

0:14:58.640 --> 0:15:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Senate sponsors of this important award. Okay, so what's he

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna say tomorrow to contradict that and that's the funny thing.

0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you've got Pat Lahey, and you got Dick Durbin,

0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:14.720
<v Speaker 1>and Dick Turbin worked with Senator Sessions too, so you

0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.520
<v Speaker 1>can get as equal as possible. There's this disparity in

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 1>sentencing crack cocaine versus powder cocaine. All the experts I

0:15:21.720 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>remember interviewing at the time just said the crack was

0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that much more insidious and evil, a much harder drug,

0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:31.400
<v Speaker 1>a much more concentrated level of the drug, but it

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.480
<v Speaker 1>was disproportionate and as much as it tended to impact

0:15:34.800 --> 0:15:37.480
<v Speaker 1>the black community more, and they reduced the sentencing together.

0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:40.160
<v Speaker 1>And then he went after Jeff Sessions on the fact

0:15:40.240 --> 0:15:42.760
<v Speaker 1>that he doesn't think people with the three strikes you're

0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:45.920
<v Speaker 1>out law ought to get it. These pardons that Obama

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>has been given out is though that somehow that must

0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 1>be racist, and he highlighted one particular individual. Does it

0:15:51.640 --> 0:15:55.080
<v Speaker 1>matter that black pastors are in Washington rallying for the

0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions? Apparently not to a lot

0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:00.560
<v Speaker 1>of people. You know, when this and you when we've

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:04.840
<v Speaker 1>played those protesters earlier in the Republican theory, Jeff Sessions

0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:09.640
<v Speaker 1>is evil I really think that Democrats believe that. I

0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>think democrats think Republicans in many ways are evil. I'm

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:16.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell you they're gonna have a very hard time

0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:19.480
<v Speaker 1>coping in the next two d days. And what do

0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean by that? What most people haven't figured out

0:16:23.400 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 1>yet on the Democratic side is is Donald Trump already

0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 1>has planned on day one, in the opening hours of

0:16:33.440 --> 0:16:39.800
<v Speaker 1>his presidency, to undo every executive order that is hurting

0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:44.320
<v Speaker 1>the country, hurting businesses in America, hurting the economy in America,

0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 1>and is going to go after this with a vengeance

0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:51.720
<v Speaker 1>and with a passion. He'll spend the first hours of

0:16:51.880 --> 0:16:58.560
<v Speaker 1>his presidency undoing all of the regulatory burdensome, regulatory, you know,

0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 1>disasters that have been put on the economy since Obama

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:05.120
<v Speaker 1>has been the president of the United States. It's gonna

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:10.560
<v Speaker 1>go fast, and that's probably of the agenda of Obama's

0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:12.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, there's an upside. I guess if you're ruled

0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 1>by executive fiat, you get things done with a stroke

0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 1>of a pen. But there's also a downside. And the

0:17:18.080 --> 0:17:21.520
<v Speaker 1>downside is it can be undone just as simply. You know,

0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Obama's touting his great success, you know, we he gave us,

0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:29.439
<v Speaker 1>He doubled the national debt. He gave us a trillion

0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 1>dollar tax increase in Obamacare over a decade, one trillion dollars.

0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:36.080
<v Speaker 1>That will be the next thing that goes. By the

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:39.000
<v Speaker 1>time you get rid of Obamacare and executive orders, about

0:17:41.480 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>of the Obama presidency has done gone wiped away off

0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the books. It's almost as if he never lived there,

0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:50.160
<v Speaker 1>like he never existed, and the only thing that really

0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>remains is his horrific foreign policy, the horrific state of

0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:57.840
<v Speaker 1>the economy, the judges that he's appointed, and the record

0:17:57.920 --> 0:18:01.200
<v Speaker 1>debt that he's accumulated. You know, there's an estimate that

0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:05.760
<v Speaker 1>is out Regulation Rodeo and American Action Form. They assessed

0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:10.080
<v Speaker 1>eight hundred and seventy point three billion dollars the cost

0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:13.960
<v Speaker 1>of all the new federal government regulations finalized since Obama

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:18.119
<v Speaker 1>took office seven hundred and fifty billion dollars our trade

0:18:18.160 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 1>deficit last year. It's interesting to watch Mexico. They can't

0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.639
<v Speaker 1>get in the negotiating room fast enough to meet Trump,

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.639
<v Speaker 1>which puts Trump in a in a great position just

0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:31.800
<v Speaker 1>by just by picking up the phone, making phone calls

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.879
<v Speaker 1>and pressuring companies and incentivizing companies to stay here more

0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:40.600
<v Speaker 1>of an incentivizing through getting rid of regulation and and

0:18:41.000 --> 0:18:44.480
<v Speaker 1>better tax policies for corporations, he's incentivizing them to stay.

0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't think most corporations like the idea of taking

0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:51.240
<v Speaker 1>their corporations to Mexico. I think if if they can

0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:53.520
<v Speaker 1>make a healthy profit here, they don't mind paying their

0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.320
<v Speaker 1>fiftcent corporate tax rate. Every one of their employees will

0:18:56.320 --> 0:18:59.719
<v Speaker 1>pay income taxes. If you get rid of the regulations

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.439
<v Speaker 1>that are burdening them with billions of dollars in costs,

0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:04.959
<v Speaker 1>you take away that now they can make a healthy profit,

0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:07.680
<v Speaker 1>and then then you can put Americans back to work,

0:19:08.040 --> 0:19:11.879
<v Speaker 1>and we can revitalize cities like Detroit and Milwaukee and

0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Pittsburgh and all these other cities that desperately need help,

0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 1>and and places around Cleveland, another city. Anyway, you have

0:19:19.840 --> 0:19:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a six hundred ninety billion dollar increase in in student debt. Well,

0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:28.880
<v Speaker 1>what our government does, I as we do, the estimated

0:19:28.960 --> 0:19:32.320
<v Speaker 1>cost of all the new ep A regulations finalized since

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Obama took office three billion. The projected cost of Obama's

0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:43.280
<v Speaker 1>finalized Clean Power Plan regulations three hundred billion dollars. And

0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:47.280
<v Speaker 1>this is insane. The amount of money that we're talking about.

0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:52.080
<v Speaker 1>This is real money, millions and billions of dollars that's

0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:56.359
<v Speaker 1>holding back this economy. And then Obama literally said he

0:19:56.440 --> 0:19:59.480
<v Speaker 1>goes well, he admitted Sunday that he never imagined Trump

0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:01.399
<v Speaker 1>would become president because he's out of touch with the

0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:04.960
<v Speaker 1>American people because he lives in a bubble. Yeah, that's

0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:10.760
<v Speaker 1>that's that's saying a lot, you know when you really

0:20:10.840 --> 0:20:12.400
<v Speaker 1>look at it. Because the President is going to speak

0:20:12.400 --> 0:20:14.959
<v Speaker 1>tonight and he's not going to give you the statistics.

0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:17.480
<v Speaker 1>I won't regurgitate them because I made a promise I'll

0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:19.960
<v Speaker 1>stop using them. But I did it for effect last

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:22.960
<v Speaker 1>year during the election. Here, he's not going to tell

0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.639
<v Speaker 1>you all those things. He's not going to tell you

0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:30.800
<v Speaker 1>that Iran is better off because do you realize since

0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:32.719
<v Speaker 1>we gave money to a rank guess, what do you think?

0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:34.840
<v Speaker 1>What do you think Iran is spending that money on.

0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:40.399
<v Speaker 1>Obama is now paid a ran more than ten billion dollars. Well,

0:20:40.400 --> 0:20:43.680
<v Speaker 1>there's an article out today how Iran is spending the

0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:48.560
<v Speaker 1>nuclear deal money on troops, on missiles and arms for terrorists.

0:20:49.400 --> 0:20:51.280
<v Speaker 1>We had to have earlier this week or over the

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:55.119
<v Speaker 1>weekend the country that Obama showered with these billions of

0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:58.960
<v Speaker 1>dollars in sanctions relief. Well, they can't resist launching attacks

0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:02.119
<v Speaker 1>on our warships. So a U. S. Navy destroyer had

0:21:02.160 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 1>to fire three warning shots at four Iranian fast attack

0:21:06.240 --> 0:21:09.640
<v Speaker 1>vessels after they closed. We're closing in at a higher

0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:13.359
<v Speaker 1>rate of speed near the straits of Hormones, to U. S.

0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Defense officials told Reuters. You may remember back in September,

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:21.439
<v Speaker 1>Trump vowed that any Iranian vessel that harasses the US

0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Navy in the Gulf in this particular case will be

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:28.320
<v Speaker 1>shot out of the water. And I bet you the

0:21:28.400 --> 0:21:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Iranians believe him. We'll see over time how that unfolds.

0:21:33.720 --> 0:21:36.359
<v Speaker 1>And Trump's Defense secretary, this will be interesting to watch.

0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 1>The man that he tapped to be the next Secretary

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:44.159
<v Speaker 1>of Defense literally wanted to launch air strikes against Iran

0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:48.080
<v Speaker 1>after Iran built missiles that were used in several deadly

0:21:48.160 --> 0:21:52.120
<v Speaker 1>attacks on US troops in Iraq. Mad Dog Matdis wanted

0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 1>to do this, He had a plan to retaliate. The

0:21:54.040 --> 0:21:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration denied his request. Things are gonna change, and

0:21:58.400 --> 0:22:02.040
<v Speaker 1>these countries will learn very quickly that there is a

0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:05.040
<v Speaker 1>new sheriff in town now. I think it's his goal

0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:07.240
<v Speaker 1>to get into foreign conflict. Of God, I hope not.

0:22:07.359 --> 0:22:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Who wants to foreign conflict. We know that it's eventually

0:22:11.119 --> 0:22:14.440
<v Speaker 1>going to be politicized. But I'm telling you what the

0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:17.239
<v Speaker 1>left goal is. You're hearing it, you're seeing it at

0:22:17.240 --> 0:22:20.639
<v Speaker 1>the Jeff Sessions hearings today. Their goal is to delegitimize

0:22:20.720 --> 0:22:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump. Their goal is to create a caricature. Their

0:22:25.440 --> 0:22:28.679
<v Speaker 1>goal is to create an image. They're not going to change.

0:22:28.720 --> 0:22:33.399
<v Speaker 1>Their talking points are predictable. Republicans are mean spirited. Republicans

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:37.320
<v Speaker 1>only care about the rich, they don't care about the poor.

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Republicans are racist. Republicans are sexist. Republicans are homophobic, their

0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Islamic phobic. There's xenophobic. Every single agenda item of Donald

0:22:48.240 --> 0:22:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Trump is going to be is going to be challenged

0:22:53.080 --> 0:22:56.320
<v Speaker 1>by the left, and today is only a small sample

0:22:56.440 --> 0:23:00.320
<v Speaker 1>of what's to come. If Trump tries to lower the

0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:04.520
<v Speaker 1>tax rate. I am concerned about what seems like a

0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:07.040
<v Speaker 1>willingness to spend too much money without a I have

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.560
<v Speaker 1>not seen a how do we pay for the infrastructure

0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:11.680
<v Speaker 1>for the trillion dollars they're talking about. There is ways

0:23:11.760 --> 0:23:14.520
<v Speaker 1>to do it. Rand Paul, I know, put forward a

0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.280
<v Speaker 1>budget that would be balanced in five years this week,

0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:21.120
<v Speaker 1>and that's sort of a knockoff of the Penny plan.

0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>He just wants to free spending. In other words, you'd

0:23:24.359 --> 0:23:27.960
<v Speaker 1>eliminate baseline budgeting and you don't have these built in

0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:31.800
<v Speaker 1>increases for every government department every year, and you you'd

0:23:31.800 --> 0:23:34.040
<v Speaker 1>have some flexibility. Maybe you want to spend more on defense,

0:23:34.119 --> 0:23:37.359
<v Speaker 1>less on on the e p A, more on defense,

0:23:37.440 --> 0:23:40.879
<v Speaker 1>less on the Interior Department. So there are ways to

0:23:40.960 --> 0:23:43.200
<v Speaker 1>do it. There's certainly a lot of fat to be cut.

0:23:44.240 --> 0:23:46.320
<v Speaker 1>But then Republicans on the other hand, go around and

0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:48.560
<v Speaker 1>this frustrates the living daylights out of me. Why did

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:52.280
<v Speaker 1>they raise the debt ceiling nearly ten trillion dollars, the

0:23:52.400 --> 0:23:54.560
<v Speaker 1>same amount of debt that Obama took on in the

0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:58.919
<v Speaker 1>last eight years. That means it's status quo. They've got

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:00.880
<v Speaker 1>the house, They've got the same in it. I thought

0:24:00.920 --> 0:24:04.640
<v Speaker 1>they were the party of limited government, balance budgets. They've

0:24:04.680 --> 0:24:08.719
<v Speaker 1>better take into consideration that we cannot as a country,

0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:12.560
<v Speaker 1>as an economy, keep bringing on this level of debt,

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:16.600
<v Speaker 1>these high deficits without paying a very dear price. At

0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:19.480
<v Speaker 1>some point down the line, interest rates are gonna go up.

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 1>They're starting to creep up now, and that means that

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:26.280
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna eventually have to pay for it. So there's

0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:29.040
<v Speaker 1>a there's a lot happening here. I think when Trump

0:24:29.119 --> 0:24:33.440
<v Speaker 1>goes forward and any appoints a Supreme Court justice, you've

0:24:33.480 --> 0:24:37.919
<v Speaker 1>never seen demonization like it's coming. It doesn't matter who

0:24:38.000 --> 0:24:41.840
<v Speaker 1>he picks. Whoever he picks, Chuck Schumer's pledged to oppose,

0:24:43.000 --> 0:24:45.360
<v Speaker 1>So if he picks from any of his list, they're

0:24:45.400 --> 0:24:48.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be opposed. When he puts an originalist on

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the bench, then we're gonna see if Mitch McConnell has

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:53.679
<v Speaker 1>a backbone, whether or not Mitch McConnell will play by

0:24:53.720 --> 0:24:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Harry Reid's rules, how committed Mitch McConnell is, And the

0:24:58.119 --> 0:25:01.680
<v Speaker 1>same charges, the same repetitive if bumper stickers and slogans

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:05.760
<v Speaker 1>will be used in those hearings, and probably for every

0:25:05.800 --> 0:25:10.080
<v Speaker 1>other cabinet official that goes before whatever appropriate committee they

0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:13.560
<v Speaker 1>have to go before. When Donald Trump wants a tax

0:25:13.640 --> 0:25:16.680
<v Speaker 1>plan that lowers the corporate tax to fifercent, allows the

0:25:16.760 --> 0:25:20.560
<v Speaker 1>tem per cent repatriation for trillions overseas, it's gonna be

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Republicans hate the poor, and they want to want to

0:25:23.280 --> 0:25:26.719
<v Speaker 1>help only their their buddies that are rich. I never

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:29.600
<v Speaker 1>got a job from a poor person. And if those

0:25:29.680 --> 0:25:33.359
<v Speaker 1>people continue this process of what we see unfolding with Fia,

0:25:33.560 --> 0:25:36.680
<v Speaker 1>Chrysler and Carrier and Ford and all these other companies,

0:25:38.000 --> 0:25:40.399
<v Speaker 1>and this Ali Baba guy who wants to create a

0:25:40.520 --> 0:25:42.920
<v Speaker 1>million jobs in the US in the next couple of years,

0:25:43.720 --> 0:25:45.879
<v Speaker 1>well then we're gonna see all of those Americans that

0:25:45.920 --> 0:25:48.760
<v Speaker 1>have been suffering the camp by cars and homes and houses,

0:25:49.440 --> 0:25:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna now have money to to to see

0:25:52.080 --> 0:25:55.439
<v Speaker 1>their dreams come to fruition. That's the whole point. If

0:25:55.520 --> 0:25:58.440
<v Speaker 1>these companies don't invest in Detroit, if they don't invest

0:25:58.520 --> 0:26:00.800
<v Speaker 1>in Milwaukee, if they don't invest in Cleveland, if they

0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:04.040
<v Speaker 1>don't invest in Pittsburgh, in Pennsylvania, in Philly, how are

0:26:04.040 --> 0:26:07.720
<v Speaker 1>you gonna save these cities? The number what liberals have

0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:10.639
<v Speaker 1>tried hasn't worked. The one thing they may think Republicans

0:26:10.680 --> 0:26:13.360
<v Speaker 1>are evil, but they'll never look at how they have failed.

0:26:14.480 --> 0:26:19.440
<v Speaker 1>National debt nineteen trillion, nineteen point nine trillion, national debt

0:26:19.520 --> 0:26:24.040
<v Speaker 1>increase under Obama nine point three trillion, increase in regulation

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:29.720
<v Speaker 1>paperwork five hundred and eighty three million hours. Obama administration

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:32.440
<v Speaker 1>payment to a RAN in the hostage deal four hundred

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:37.880
<v Speaker 1>million dollars. Criminal illegal aliens released by Obama eighty six

0:26:37.960 --> 0:26:44.200
<v Speaker 1>thousand two d for fiscal year through new federal regulations

0:26:44.280 --> 0:26:47.320
<v Speaker 1>finalized since Obama took office two thousand, nine hundred and

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:52.080
<v Speaker 1>eighty eight average increase in college tuition costs under Obama

0:26:52.160 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 1>four thousand, eight hundred and fifty seven bucks at four

0:26:55.800 --> 0:27:01.040
<v Speaker 1>year public colleges. Economic costs of regulations eight hundred and

0:27:01.240 --> 0:27:05.719
<v Speaker 1>seventy three point six billion dollars since Obama took office billion?

0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 1>How does business compete with that economic environment? US global

0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:16.880
<v Speaker 1>trade deficit seven hundred thirty two point two billion. Increase

0:27:16.960 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 1>in student loan debt as I said, six hundred nine billion.

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Manufacturing job losses since the president took office three hundred

0:27:24.040 --> 0:27:29.280
<v Speaker 1>and one thousand. Bureau of Labor Statistic Statistics estimated cost

0:27:29.359 --> 0:27:34.760
<v Speaker 1>ep A regulations three four billion, Economic costs regulations eight

0:27:34.840 --> 0:27:39.399
<v Speaker 1>hundred and seventy three point six billion. Homeownership rate is

0:27:39.480 --> 0:27:42.480
<v Speaker 1>down dramatically, lowest home ownership rate in fifty one years.

0:27:43.359 --> 0:27:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Number of Americans on food stamps under Obama from thirty

0:27:47.119 --> 0:27:51.440
<v Speaker 1>one million to forty three point three million. I mean,

0:27:51.960 --> 0:27:53.720
<v Speaker 1>if you want to look at Democrat, how is this

0:27:53.840 --> 0:27:57.840
<v Speaker 1>fared for the Democratic Party? Not well? Since two thousand

0:27:57.920 --> 0:28:00.080
<v Speaker 1>and nine Obama's in office, They've lost the president and

0:28:00.160 --> 0:28:04.240
<v Speaker 1>see thirteen Senate seat, sixty four House seats, thirteen governorships,

0:28:04.280 --> 0:28:08.240
<v Speaker 1>and thirty three state houses nearly a thousand seats total.

0:28:09.840 --> 0:28:12.680
<v Speaker 1>How's that hope and change? The thing working out for everybody?

0:28:12.800 --> 0:28:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't look too good. But that's not what you're gonna

0:28:15.880 --> 0:28:17.960
<v Speaker 1>hear tonight. I'm gonna hear. Iran has failed, i Rack

0:28:18.040 --> 0:28:21.200
<v Speaker 1>has failed, Afghanistan has failed, Benghazi, North Africa has failed,

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:25.160
<v Speaker 1>the Russian reset failed, our our relations with China, North

0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 1>Korea has failed. We've had the worst relationship with Israel

0:28:28.760 --> 0:28:32.520
<v Speaker 1>in our history. Where do we have any success? Isis

0:28:32.640 --> 0:28:35.480
<v Speaker 1>is on the move with the money that was provided

0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:37.560
<v Speaker 1>by pulling out of Iraq early. I want you to

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:41.880
<v Speaker 1>clarify exactly where you stand and based on your conversation

0:28:41.960 --> 0:28:45.000
<v Speaker 1>with Donald Trump where he spends stands on repealing and

0:28:45.120 --> 0:28:48.920
<v Speaker 1>replacing Obama here, because my understanding is you don't want

0:28:48.960 --> 0:28:51.760
<v Speaker 1>to repeal it until exactly that day there is a

0:28:51.840 --> 0:28:54.800
<v Speaker 1>plan in place to replace it and you've said that

0:28:54.920 --> 0:28:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump is with you on that, we're exactly is

0:28:57.680 --> 0:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>he and where are you as a physician, as an individual,

0:29:01.080 --> 0:29:03.840
<v Speaker 1>as a patient. I'm very much opposed to Obamacare and

0:29:03.880 --> 0:29:06.000
<v Speaker 1>think it's been a disaster for our country, and I

0:29:06.120 --> 0:29:08.680
<v Speaker 1>will vote for a repeal. I do think, though, that

0:29:08.720 --> 0:29:11.400
<v Speaker 1>we should vote on replacement the same day. I'm putting

0:29:11.440 --> 0:29:15.080
<v Speaker 1>together a bill. It's virtually completed. It will be full

0:29:15.160 --> 0:29:18.520
<v Speaker 1>of the consensus opinions on replacement, basically that we need

0:29:18.560 --> 0:29:20.680
<v Speaker 1>to ensure the most amount of people at the least

0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:25.080
<v Speaker 1>amount of cost. It will involve three main areas for replacement.

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:29.200
<v Speaker 1>One that we legalize the sale of inexpensive insurance so

0:29:29.280 --> 0:29:32.280
<v Speaker 1>everybody can buy it. We help people save so they

0:29:32.320 --> 0:29:34.720
<v Speaker 1>can buy insurance through help savings accounts. And then we

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:39.320
<v Speaker 1>help individuals to associate with groups of individuals through health

0:29:39.440 --> 0:29:42.719
<v Speaker 1>association plans so they can spread their risk and get

0:29:42.760 --> 0:29:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a cheaper product. If you put those three market reforms together,

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>as well as some tax changes, I think you can

0:29:48.960 --> 0:29:51.760
<v Speaker 1>get something that virtually every Republican agrees to. But we

0:29:51.960 --> 0:29:54.960
<v Speaker 1>also help soften the blow as we go from Obamacare

0:29:55.280 --> 0:29:58.680
<v Speaker 1>to a more market oriented UH type of industry. Again,

0:29:58.880 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 1>all right. That was Senator Ran Paul Our two of

0:30:01.640 --> 0:30:04.200
<v Speaker 1>the Sean Hannity Show. Right down our toll free telephone number.

0:30:04.200 --> 0:30:06.360
<v Speaker 1>You want to be a part of this extravaganza, eight

0:30:06.440 --> 0:30:08.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred nine for one, Shawn, if you want to join us.

0:30:09.000 --> 0:30:11.680
<v Speaker 1>You know it's somewhat odd and a bit bizarre. I know. Look, look,

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:15.880
<v Speaker 1>I know there are nine specific plans Republicans have out there,

0:30:16.040 --> 0:30:18.920
<v Speaker 1>and November nine came and went a long time ago,

0:30:19.360 --> 0:30:22.480
<v Speaker 1>and we knew that this was on the Trump agenda,

0:30:22.600 --> 0:30:24.320
<v Speaker 1>was going to be the number one item. It was

0:30:24.520 --> 0:30:27.520
<v Speaker 1>the number one pledge of almost every candidate that ran

0:30:27.640 --> 0:30:30.120
<v Speaker 1>for office in the House and Senate. That's Republican. And

0:30:30.680 --> 0:30:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll echo the words of Senator Rick sam Torham of Pennsylvania,

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 1>former senator, who said, I'm stunned that they don't have

0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:40.320
<v Speaker 1>a consensus plan yet at this point. Now, Tom Price

0:30:40.480 --> 0:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>was going to be the Health and Human Services secretary.

0:30:42.640 --> 0:30:45.120
<v Speaker 1>He in fact has a plan. We have interviewed him

0:30:45.120 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 1>a number of times on this program about what that

0:30:47.480 --> 0:30:50.200
<v Speaker 1>plan is. Donald Trump talked at length with me in

0:30:50.400 --> 0:30:54.400
<v Speaker 1>interviews about health care savings, accounts, portability, taking your insurance

0:30:54.480 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 1>job to job co ops, as as Rand Paul was

0:30:57.120 --> 0:31:00.280
<v Speaker 1>talking about and health care savings accounts. Um. I think

0:31:00.440 --> 0:31:03.520
<v Speaker 1>all of the different items and the nine separate bills

0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:06.600
<v Speaker 1>are are pretty much in line, but they need one bill.

0:31:06.800 --> 0:31:09.320
<v Speaker 1>And the idea that you're gonna maybe within the next

0:31:09.520 --> 0:31:12.360
<v Speaker 1>year I'll come up with a replacement sounds insane to me,

0:31:12.960 --> 0:31:15.120
<v Speaker 1>and Senator Ram Paul of the Great State of Kentucky

0:31:15.240 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 1>joins us. How are you, Senator Hey Sean, thanks for

0:31:17.600 --> 0:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>having me. I mean, it's a little bewildering to me

0:31:20.160 --> 0:31:23.680
<v Speaker 1>that we don't have a consensus plan at this late date.

0:31:23.760 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Why don't we have one? You know, in some ways

0:31:25.440 --> 0:31:28.640
<v Speaker 1>we do have a consensus plan. There are consensus ideas

0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 1>helping individuals to save through health savings accounts, legalizing the

0:31:33.360 --> 0:31:37.280
<v Speaker 1>form of all insurance sales, including inexpensive plans, and letting

0:31:37.320 --> 0:31:40.239
<v Speaker 1>people group together in associations. Those are agreed to by

0:31:40.360 --> 0:31:43.320
<v Speaker 1>probably ninety nine point nine percent of Republicans who are

0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:46.200
<v Speaker 1>elected in Congress. They just have tactically said, oh, well,

0:31:46.280 --> 0:31:49.240
<v Speaker 1>we'll get around to it sometime. So I've taken the

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:51.240
<v Speaker 1>ball here and I've put them together into a bill,

0:31:51.480 --> 0:31:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and about an hour ago, apparently the Speaker of the House,

0:31:54.120 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Paul Ryan came forward and said, we can do them simultaneously.

0:31:56.840 --> 0:31:59.720
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I've been saying all along. We have consensus,

0:31:59.840 --> 0:32:02.160
<v Speaker 1>we already of the bills written. Let's put them together

0:32:02.200 --> 0:32:05.120
<v Speaker 1>and let's vote on it. And let's before something, not

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:09.640
<v Speaker 1>just against something. Let's before something that will provide insurance

0:32:09.720 --> 0:32:12.320
<v Speaker 1>to a lot of people at a very inexpensive price.

0:32:12.600 --> 0:32:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I have been stopped by more people that obviously no

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:19.240
<v Speaker 1>him in news, and I'm supporting. I supported Donald Trump

0:32:19.280 --> 0:32:22.080
<v Speaker 1>in the election, and I want this country to repeal

0:32:22.160 --> 0:32:24.560
<v Speaker 1>and replace Obamacare. There are a lot of people afraid

0:32:24.680 --> 0:32:26.440
<v Speaker 1>right now that somehow they think they're going to be

0:32:26.560 --> 0:32:28.960
<v Speaker 1>kicked off their plan this year. Can you assure them that,

0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:31.640
<v Speaker 1>in fact, that's not a part of anybody's strategy. I

0:32:31.720 --> 0:32:34.000
<v Speaker 1>know that's a democratic talking point, but that's not going

0:32:34.080 --> 0:32:37.200
<v Speaker 1>to happen. No, our goal is to ensure more people

0:32:37.480 --> 0:32:40.880
<v Speaker 1>and at a cheaper price. Obamacare's disaster is it actually

0:32:41.000 --> 0:32:43.960
<v Speaker 1>ensured less people, and it caused the prices to rise,

0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 1>and that's why less people bought it. So in the

0:32:46.360 --> 0:32:49.800
<v Speaker 1>individual insurance market, this is about eleven million people, about

0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:53.120
<v Speaker 1>six percent of the whole insurance market. That's where their

0:32:53.160 --> 0:32:56.800
<v Speaker 1>disaster lies. The premiums are going through the roof, and

0:32:56.880 --> 0:33:00.360
<v Speaker 1>they made the insurance policies too expensive for young healthy people.

0:33:00.760 --> 0:33:03.600
<v Speaker 1>So young healthy people are not buying them because they say,

0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:05.320
<v Speaker 1>you know what, we get sick, we can just buy

0:33:05.360 --> 0:33:08.080
<v Speaker 1>it after we get sick. That's what Obamacare says. So

0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:12.080
<v Speaker 1>bombacare set up the perfect storm, the perfect nightmare. And

0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:15.120
<v Speaker 1>as a consequence, some companies like North Carolina Blue Cross

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:18.400
<v Speaker 1>lost four hundred million dollars last year in the individual market.

0:33:18.720 --> 0:33:20.520
<v Speaker 1>So we've got to stop the bleeding, and the way

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:24.440
<v Speaker 1>to do it is to legalize inexpensive insurance. Let insurance

0:33:24.480 --> 0:33:28.240
<v Speaker 1>companies sell high deductible plans that are inexpensive that young

0:33:28.280 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>people will be attracted to. Then you get young people

0:33:31.160 --> 0:33:34.800
<v Speaker 1>into the insurance market, which counterbalances the people who are sick.

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me explain this market. I'm not sure if everybody

0:33:37.880 --> 0:33:40.560
<v Speaker 1>fully completely understands what you're talking about. Some of the

0:33:40.640 --> 0:33:43.160
<v Speaker 1>more inexpensive plans that are out there. In other words,

0:33:43.160 --> 0:33:46.080
<v Speaker 1>they're called catastrophic plans. Let's say you're young, you're in

0:33:46.120 --> 0:33:49.840
<v Speaker 1>your twenties or early thirties, you're generally healthy, and you

0:33:49.960 --> 0:33:52.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe need to check up every year or two years

0:33:52.480 --> 0:33:55.120
<v Speaker 1>at that point in your life. Because you have just

0:33:55.560 --> 0:33:58.080
<v Speaker 1>generally healthy, you work out, you're not subject to what

0:33:58.280 --> 0:34:00.360
<v Speaker 1>we experience here in old age, which as a pain

0:34:00.400 --> 0:34:02.240
<v Speaker 1>in the neck. But anyway, but you could buy a

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:05.360
<v Speaker 1>catastrophic plan with a fairly high deductible. That would mean

0:34:05.440 --> 0:34:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that God forbid you ever got cancer, God forbid you

0:34:08.239 --> 0:34:10.360
<v Speaker 1>ever had a heart attack, God forbid you had a

0:34:10.400 --> 0:34:13.120
<v Speaker 1>bad accident. You would be covered. But you're not paying

0:34:13.239 --> 0:34:16.640
<v Speaker 1>for services that you're never going to need. In other words,

0:34:16.760 --> 0:34:20.000
<v Speaker 1>because of your youth and vitality. You're exactly right, and

0:34:20.000 --> 0:34:22.479
<v Speaker 1>you've described them well, Shawn. But what's important to note

0:34:23.000 --> 0:34:26.839
<v Speaker 1>is that Obamacare made those policies illegal in America. It's

0:34:26.880 --> 0:34:30.120
<v Speaker 1>illegal to buy a catastrophic plan now because Obama said

0:34:30.520 --> 0:34:33.400
<v Speaker 1>he did not like those plans. He said they were inadequate,

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:36.280
<v Speaker 1>and he thought he knew better than anyone everyone else.

0:34:36.640 --> 0:34:39.800
<v Speaker 1>But when he made those illegal, he greatly increased the

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:42.960
<v Speaker 1>price of health insurance for young people. They quit buying it,

0:34:43.400 --> 0:34:46.160
<v Speaker 1>and the insurance pools became full of sick people, and

0:34:46.239 --> 0:34:49.080
<v Speaker 1>then the insurance companies are going bankrupt as a consequence.

0:34:49.320 --> 0:34:51.640
<v Speaker 1>So you have to legalize freedom. You have to let

0:34:51.800 --> 0:34:54.759
<v Speaker 1>people make their own choices, and you have to give

0:34:54.800 --> 0:34:58.160
<v Speaker 1>them inexpensive choices. We can help them, say, we can

0:34:58.200 --> 0:35:01.360
<v Speaker 1>give them tax credits. We can of the health savings plans,

0:35:01.800 --> 0:35:03.919
<v Speaker 1>and the health savings plans. We should let you buy

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:07.160
<v Speaker 1>your insurance out of that tax deductible money. We should

0:35:07.239 --> 0:35:09.799
<v Speaker 1>also let you pay for you know, if you need

0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:12.719
<v Speaker 1>a diet plan, or you need an exercise plan, or

0:35:12.800 --> 0:35:15.319
<v Speaker 1>you want vitamins, or you want some kind of other

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:18.000
<v Speaker 1>preventative care, and you're you're you're calling me fat. I

0:35:18.120 --> 0:35:19.920
<v Speaker 1>just heard you say, Hannity, you're fat. You need a

0:35:20.000 --> 0:35:23.120
<v Speaker 1>diet plan? Is that some people shown? Some people might

0:35:23.239 --> 0:35:26.640
<v Speaker 1>need this. But we do have a replacement plan. I'm

0:35:26.640 --> 0:35:28.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna insist that we vote on it the same day.

0:35:29.360 --> 0:35:31.520
<v Speaker 1>There's no reason the world we cannot have this together

0:35:31.640 --> 0:35:33.520
<v Speaker 1>by the time we I don't want to delay repeal.

0:35:33.960 --> 0:35:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm all for repeal immediately. As soon as we can

0:35:36.320 --> 0:35:38.480
<v Speaker 1>get to repeal, let's do it. But we should vote

0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:42.480
<v Speaker 1>on a replacement plan that involves freedom and the marketplace

0:35:42.880 --> 0:35:45.000
<v Speaker 1>and expanding the number of people who can get a

0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Really those three components that you talk about. We have

0:35:48.280 --> 0:35:52.719
<v Speaker 1>these illegal plans, these catastrophic plans, that are relatively inexpensive

0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:55.239
<v Speaker 1>but have a high rate of coverage. Again, for younger

0:35:55.320 --> 0:35:58.200
<v Speaker 1>people in particular, they would be really I think appealing

0:35:58.280 --> 0:36:00.359
<v Speaker 1>because you get a lot of coverage that if God

0:36:00.440 --> 0:36:02.960
<v Speaker 1>forbid bad things were to happen to you, then you

0:36:03.000 --> 0:36:04.560
<v Speaker 1>would be covered. But you pay a little bit of

0:36:04.560 --> 0:36:07.200
<v Speaker 1>a deductible maybe five, six, seven, eight thousand dollars, but

0:36:07.280 --> 0:36:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you're you're banking on your own health and your own

0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:13.640
<v Speaker 1>lifestyle choices and safety. For example, you don't drive fast,

0:36:13.800 --> 0:36:16.360
<v Speaker 1>you don't drink and drive, certain decisions you make, and

0:36:16.440 --> 0:36:18.880
<v Speaker 1>then that would be available for anybody. Health Care savings

0:36:18.920 --> 0:36:21.160
<v Speaker 1>accounts would be where you're putting money that is tax

0:36:21.200 --> 0:36:24.759
<v Speaker 1>deductible into your own account, and it would probably incentivize,

0:36:24.760 --> 0:36:27.239
<v Speaker 1>I would think, getting a yearly check up, and then

0:36:27.280 --> 0:36:29.520
<v Speaker 1>if you don't use that money, that money builds up

0:36:29.560 --> 0:36:32.200
<v Speaker 1>for future years in case God forbid, you get sick

0:36:32.280 --> 0:36:34.480
<v Speaker 1>or you get cancer, you have a heart attack. And

0:36:34.560 --> 0:36:37.840
<v Speaker 1>then we fixed one final thing. Nobody in America should

0:36:37.840 --> 0:36:41.080
<v Speaker 1>have to be out there buying insurance by themselves. Everybody

0:36:41.120 --> 0:36:43.719
<v Speaker 1>in America should be allowed to join with other people

0:36:43.760 --> 0:36:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to buy their insurance. So if you're a mom and

0:36:46.040 --> 0:36:49.200
<v Speaker 1>pop pest control business, and there's only two of you,

0:36:49.360 --> 0:36:52.279
<v Speaker 1>you and your spouse. People live in fear that their

0:36:52.320 --> 0:36:55.439
<v Speaker 1>spouse or themselves will get cancer or get very sick

0:36:55.520 --> 0:36:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and then be dropped for their insurance. Rates will go

0:36:57.719 --> 0:37:00.359
<v Speaker 1>through the roof. If you join together with the people

0:37:00.360 --> 0:37:03.600
<v Speaker 1>in association, and if a hundred thousand people joined together

0:37:03.640 --> 0:37:07.239
<v Speaker 1>in association, you have leverage to demand lower prices for

0:37:07.360 --> 0:37:10.000
<v Speaker 1>your insurance. And you have leverage that says, you know what,

0:37:10.480 --> 0:37:12.920
<v Speaker 1>we're not buying insurance if it can cancel us or

0:37:13.040 --> 0:37:15.600
<v Speaker 1>raise our rates when we get sick. We want group insurance.

0:37:16.000 --> 0:37:20.000
<v Speaker 1>This can all happen voluntarily if you will just let

0:37:20.360 --> 0:37:23.279
<v Speaker 1>the plans developed by freeing them up from government. Let

0:37:23.280 --> 0:37:25.080
<v Speaker 1>may give you an example of this. There's a guy

0:37:25.200 --> 0:37:27.920
<v Speaker 1>that we interview fairly regularly on the program. You should

0:37:27.920 --> 0:37:30.080
<v Speaker 1>bring him into some of these hearings. His name is

0:37:30.239 --> 0:37:33.480
<v Speaker 1>Dr josh umber of Atlas m D out of Wichita, Kansas,

0:37:33.719 --> 0:37:35.840
<v Speaker 1>and what he's done in his own community is that

0:37:35.960 --> 0:37:38.120
<v Speaker 1>he and other doctors have created a co op. And

0:37:38.200 --> 0:37:40.880
<v Speaker 1>the co op is you pay X number of dollars

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:44.839
<v Speaker 1>per person per year, and it's a very very modest rate,

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.000
<v Speaker 1>and you get all the care that you need short

0:37:48.160 --> 0:37:51.080
<v Speaker 1>of surgery or cancer treatment. In other words, you get

0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:53.920
<v Speaker 1>all your preventative care. He'll take care of your blood pressure,

0:37:54.000 --> 0:37:56.080
<v Speaker 1>he'll give you a stress test, he'll do all those

0:37:56.120 --> 0:37:57.759
<v Speaker 1>things that most of us get. And then if you

0:37:57.880 --> 0:37:59.759
<v Speaker 1>have to move on to a specialist, that's where maybe

0:37:59.760 --> 0:38:02.360
<v Speaker 1>at astrophic plan would kick in. But more importantly, he

0:38:02.560 --> 0:38:07.680
<v Speaker 1>purchases his cooperative purchases directly from the pharmaceutical companies at

0:38:08.000 --> 0:38:12.360
<v Speaker 1>ridiculously low rates. He dispenses the medicine directly to his patients.

0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:15.920
<v Speaker 1>They save money on pharmaceuticals, they save money on doctors visits.

0:38:16.200 --> 0:38:19.640
<v Speaker 1>They have a doctor seven on call available for them,

0:38:19.920 --> 0:38:23.040
<v Speaker 1>and the patients love it. He's doing well financially and

0:38:23.120 --> 0:38:26.800
<v Speaker 1>it works for that community. Capitalism and freedom of choice works.

0:38:26.840 --> 0:38:29.480
<v Speaker 1>If we will let it work, all kinds of innovative

0:38:29.520 --> 0:38:32.200
<v Speaker 1>solutions would happen. So you might get a doctor that

0:38:32.280 --> 0:38:34.400
<v Speaker 1>provides for the first ten thousand dollars with a care,

0:38:34.440 --> 0:38:36.799
<v Speaker 1>and then you get a very very cheap policy above

0:38:36.880 --> 0:38:40.880
<v Speaker 1>ten thousands. But realize that of the public never spends

0:38:40.920 --> 0:38:44.480
<v Speaker 1>ten thousand dollars. Insurance companies make money because you're prepaying

0:38:44.600 --> 0:38:46.759
<v Speaker 1>for all of this, so they are all kinds of innovative,

0:38:47.040 --> 0:38:49.320
<v Speaker 1>innovative ways. We can do this, but we've got to

0:38:49.320 --> 0:38:53.640
<v Speaker 1>get Obamacare rules and regulations that prevent innovation from occurring.

0:38:54.040 --> 0:38:55.960
<v Speaker 1>We have to get rid of those rules. Yeah, I

0:38:56.000 --> 0:38:57.719
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell you. All right, let me ask you why

0:38:57.880 --> 0:39:00.920
<v Speaker 1>is why are they talking about raising the debt ceiling

0:39:01.080 --> 0:39:04.000
<v Speaker 1>nine and a half trillion dollars for the next ten years.

0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:06.239
<v Speaker 1>I thought Republicans were in charge of the House and

0:39:06.360 --> 0:39:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Senate and spending. Now, what the hell is going on?

0:39:08.480 --> 0:39:10.919
<v Speaker 1>Nothing disappoints me more. We're in charge of all three

0:39:10.960 --> 0:39:13.680
<v Speaker 1>branches of government. Told the country, if you put us

0:39:13.719 --> 0:39:16.480
<v Speaker 1>in charge, you'd have conservative government. And the first thing

0:39:16.560 --> 0:39:18.880
<v Speaker 1>they did out of the block was to introduced a

0:39:18.920 --> 0:39:21.400
<v Speaker 1>budget that will added nine point seven trillion. Now, if

0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:23.000
<v Speaker 1>they were on the phone here, they'd say, oh, we

0:39:23.080 --> 0:39:26.160
<v Speaker 1>had to do that to repeal Obamacare. Well, my response is,

0:39:26.239 --> 0:39:28.520
<v Speaker 1>why couldn't you have introduced a good budget, one that

0:39:28.640 --> 0:39:31.960
<v Speaker 1>balances in the near future and also repeal Obamacare. So

0:39:32.000 --> 0:39:35.080
<v Speaker 1>I did just that. I introduced an amendment yesterday that

0:39:35.160 --> 0:39:38.520
<v Speaker 1>would have replaced the Republican budget with a conservative budget

0:39:38.560 --> 0:39:40.919
<v Speaker 1>that freeze is spending for five years. Remember, we've talked

0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:43.759
<v Speaker 1>about the Penny Plan. This is actually one step less

0:39:43.800 --> 0:39:46.320
<v Speaker 1>than the Penny Plan, just simply a freeze. And I

0:39:46.400 --> 0:39:48.920
<v Speaker 1>only got fourteen of my colleagues to support it. So

0:39:49.080 --> 0:39:51.240
<v Speaker 1>for Donald Trump told me in a lot of interviews

0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:54.480
<v Speaker 1>that he supports the Penny Plan, And maybe not for defense,

0:39:54.640 --> 0:39:58.479
<v Speaker 1>maybe not for nondiscretionary spending, but certainly you can stop

0:39:58.560 --> 0:40:00.840
<v Speaker 1>the rate of increases or cola increases for some of

0:40:00.920 --> 0:40:03.520
<v Speaker 1>these programs with The interesting thing is, my budget would

0:40:03.520 --> 0:40:05.160
<v Speaker 1>have let you cut it anywhere you had to. You

0:40:05.239 --> 0:40:07.480
<v Speaker 1>had to end up with an overall freeze. But if

0:40:07.520 --> 0:40:10.360
<v Speaker 1>you thought military needed to go up fifty billion, you

0:40:10.400 --> 0:40:12.320
<v Speaker 1>could have gotten rid of the corporate welfare in the

0:40:12.360 --> 0:40:14.759
<v Speaker 1>Department of Commerce, and then you would have wound up

0:40:14.800 --> 0:40:17.360
<v Speaker 1>with your freeze by increasing military by fifty billion and

0:40:17.480 --> 0:40:20.640
<v Speaker 1>decreasing Department of Commerce by fifty billion. All kinds of

0:40:20.680 --> 0:40:23.440
<v Speaker 1>ways you can get to a freeze. But only fourteen

0:40:23.480 --> 0:40:26.360
<v Speaker 1>of my colleagues thought that really the debt was important

0:40:26.480 --> 0:40:29.320
<v Speaker 1>enough to put forward a conservative budget that actually balances.

0:40:29.400 --> 0:40:32.600
<v Speaker 1>So they voted for a budget that never balances and

0:40:32.680 --> 0:40:35.120
<v Speaker 1>will add nine point seven trillion dollars on the debt.

0:40:35.280 --> 0:40:38.080
<v Speaker 1>This is the Republican Congress that's doing this, the Congress

0:40:38.160 --> 0:40:40.279
<v Speaker 1>that has the power of the purse um. I know,

0:40:40.600 --> 0:40:44.240
<v Speaker 1>for example, I'm look, I know we need infrastructure spending,

0:40:44.280 --> 0:40:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and I know that the incoming the president elect, Donald Trump,

0:40:47.080 --> 0:40:49.360
<v Speaker 1>has talked about a trillion dollars. I know Democrats are

0:40:49.400 --> 0:40:52.399
<v Speaker 1>going crazy about it. To them, it's not another stimulus bill. Well,

0:40:52.440 --> 0:40:55.000
<v Speaker 1>i'd like, if we're gonna spend that money, I think

0:40:55.040 --> 0:40:57.239
<v Speaker 1>you need to pay as you go system. And if

0:40:57.280 --> 0:40:59.920
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna, I don't think the country can afford an

0:41:00.040 --> 0:41:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the ten trillion dollars in debt. Why why only fourteen

0:41:03.520 --> 0:41:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Republicans said, It's hard to explain, but things getting grained

0:41:08.440 --> 0:41:10.480
<v Speaker 1>up here. The status quo is so strong. But on

0:41:10.600 --> 0:41:13.520
<v Speaker 1>infrastructure spending, I have a plan that would get his

0:41:13.600 --> 0:41:15.640
<v Speaker 1>more money for infrastructure. I would let all of the

0:41:15.680 --> 0:41:19.680
<v Speaker 1>American profit two trillion dollars of American profit overseas. I'd

0:41:19.760 --> 0:41:22.239
<v Speaker 1>let it come home at five percent, but I'd take

0:41:22.320 --> 0:41:24.560
<v Speaker 1>that five percent tax and I would put it all

0:41:24.640 --> 0:41:26.799
<v Speaker 1>into the road fund, and that would be a new

0:41:26.920 --> 0:41:29.239
<v Speaker 1>source for building roads in our country. And I just

0:41:29.360 --> 0:41:31.840
<v Speaker 1>leave it in place five percents a low tax. Right now,

0:41:31.920 --> 0:41:35.560
<v Speaker 1>it's thirty five percent so you could actually lower attacks dramatically.

0:41:35.920 --> 0:41:39.719
<v Speaker 1>But this will bring back the repatriated money that multinational

0:41:39.800 --> 0:41:43.040
<v Speaker 1>corporations parked or sure because they would be taxed at

0:41:43.080 --> 0:41:44.480
<v Speaker 1>such a high rate. Let me ask you this. You

0:41:44.560 --> 0:41:46.880
<v Speaker 1>talked to Donald Trump. He agreed if we repeal, we

0:41:46.920 --> 0:41:49.040
<v Speaker 1>should replace and do it the same day. At least

0:41:49.080 --> 0:41:51.040
<v Speaker 1>you're quoted in a in an interview, was doing that.

0:41:51.560 --> 0:41:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Have you talked to him about the need to balance

0:41:54.840 --> 0:41:57.719
<v Speaker 1>the budget? Because I talked to him at length during

0:41:57.760 --> 0:41:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the campaign about it, And if you did, what did

0:41:59.600 --> 0:42:02.120
<v Speaker 1>he say? You know, we didn't have that conversation directly,

0:42:02.800 --> 0:42:05.120
<v Speaker 1>but we did talk. I have talked about with several

0:42:05.200 --> 0:42:08.319
<v Speaker 1>of his cabinet members that the only way you can

0:42:08.400 --> 0:42:10.520
<v Speaker 1>tackle the debt and not explode the debt as you do,

0:42:10.640 --> 0:42:14.279
<v Speaker 1>have to do entitlement reform. And uh, his at least

0:42:14.320 --> 0:42:17.160
<v Speaker 1>his cabinet members that have come before me have acknowledged

0:42:17.200 --> 0:42:19.560
<v Speaker 1>that we do have to look into entitlement reform. I

0:42:19.640 --> 0:42:22.680
<v Speaker 1>think this is still an object for discussion. It's not

0:42:22.840 --> 0:42:25.520
<v Speaker 1>as popular, obviously as other things that are going to

0:42:25.600 --> 0:42:27.359
<v Speaker 1>get done, and I think in the first hundred days

0:42:27.400 --> 0:42:31.239
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna see regulatory repeal, repeal of regulations that are

0:42:31.320 --> 0:42:33.960
<v Speaker 1>costing us jobs. And I'm hoping that we will see

0:42:33.960 --> 0:42:36.120
<v Speaker 1>a tax bill in the first six months, but I'm

0:42:36.160 --> 0:42:38.400
<v Speaker 1>hoping it does not get lost in the shuffle that

0:42:38.560 --> 0:42:43.680
<v Speaker 1>the debt has a Really, isn't it pretty despicable what's

0:42:43.719 --> 0:42:46.479
<v Speaker 1>on display in the United States Senate and the Senate

0:42:46.560 --> 0:42:50.319
<v Speaker 1>Judiciary Committee today and all the same old talking point

0:42:50.400 --> 0:42:52.840
<v Speaker 1>that if you're a conservative, you've got to be a racist,

0:42:53.040 --> 0:42:57.200
<v Speaker 1>And this character characterization of of Jeff Sessions is just

0:42:57.440 --> 0:43:00.520
<v Speaker 1>it just discussed me. It's really insold and the people

0:43:00.520 --> 0:43:02.680
<v Speaker 1>who know Jeff Sessions. You know, one of his former

0:43:02.719 --> 0:43:05.480
<v Speaker 1>staffers is now the chief of staff for a congressman.

0:43:05.520 --> 0:43:07.800
<v Speaker 1>He's the first African American to be a chief of

0:43:07.840 --> 0:43:10.520
<v Speaker 1>staff for a Republican in the House, and they asked

0:43:10.600 --> 0:43:13.200
<v Speaker 1>him about Jeff Sessions, and his points were that he

0:43:13.280 --> 0:43:15.840
<v Speaker 1>never saw any of that, that he promoted people based

0:43:15.880 --> 0:43:18.120
<v Speaker 1>on their talent and their merit. And I think it's

0:43:18.160 --> 0:43:20.840
<v Speaker 1>just really unfair because nobody in our society wants to

0:43:20.920 --> 0:43:23.840
<v Speaker 1>be called something you're not, and it is unacceptable to

0:43:23.920 --> 0:43:26.320
<v Speaker 1>treat people based on their race or to be a racist.

0:43:26.400 --> 0:43:28.600
<v Speaker 1>And I don't believe Jeff Sessions is and I think

0:43:28.640 --> 0:43:31.479
<v Speaker 1>it's really just sad that he has to spend time,

0:43:32.040 --> 0:43:36.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, defending himself against scurrilous accusations like that. It's

0:43:36.200 --> 0:43:39.360
<v Speaker 1>it's pathetic, but it's it's wholly predictable. Senator Paul, I

0:43:39.480 --> 0:43:42.000
<v Speaker 1>like everything you're talking about here, and I hope, in

0:43:42.120 --> 0:43:44.040
<v Speaker 1>fact that we can get this done. Thanks for being

0:43:44.120 --> 0:43:46.759
<v Speaker 1>with us. Thanks Sean alright, eight hundred nine for one.

0:43:46.760 --> 0:43:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Shawn are told free telephone number if you want to

0:43:48.520 --> 0:43:51.640
<v Speaker 1>be a part of the program. Barbara streisand Barbara, thank

0:43:51.719 --> 0:43:53.920
<v Speaker 1>you for joining us. What did you think and feel

0:43:54.280 --> 0:43:57.040
<v Speaker 1>when you watch Merrel Streep last night talk about a

0:43:57.200 --> 0:44:00.000
<v Speaker 1>man who's going to be our president mocking someone's disability.

0:44:01.920 --> 0:44:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought that she said what she said beautifully and

0:44:06.280 --> 0:44:09.040
<v Speaker 1>it's easy enough to see the video online of Trump

0:44:09.520 --> 0:44:12.160
<v Speaker 1>mock and you just showed it actually, and I completely

0:44:12.200 --> 0:44:15.960
<v Speaker 1>agree with Meryl. It was a heartbreaking moment and so

0:44:16.200 --> 0:44:20.879
<v Speaker 1>beneath the the dignity of the presidency, let alone any

0:44:21.040 --> 0:44:24.600
<v Speaker 1>respectful person. I mean, what we need more in this world,

0:44:24.680 --> 0:44:29.759
<v Speaker 1>I think is kindness and common decency and um, what

0:44:29.920 --> 0:44:32.880
<v Speaker 1>he did and how he reacts and how he needs

0:44:33.600 --> 0:44:37.680
<v Speaker 1>he has the need to uh talk back and insult

0:44:37.840 --> 0:44:42.359
<v Speaker 1>anybody who doesn't agree with him, and that's pretty disgraceful.

0:44:42.680 --> 0:44:46.160
<v Speaker 1>What do you make of the critique that Meryl Street

0:44:46.160 --> 0:44:48.360
<v Speaker 1>made last night that you can push this thing and

0:44:48.480 --> 0:44:51.600
<v Speaker 1>it becomes the norm that it's like Daniel Patrick Mona

0:44:51.680 --> 0:44:56.040
<v Speaker 1>in the Senator once said, you did you define deviancy downward?

0:44:56.320 --> 0:45:00.440
<v Speaker 1>This kind of behavior becomes the normal political conversation. Well,

0:45:00.520 --> 0:45:03.560
<v Speaker 1>that's what it does. I mean, what's the signal to

0:45:03.760 --> 0:45:09.000
<v Speaker 1>little children, you know who watch television and see this

0:45:09.239 --> 0:45:13.680
<v Speaker 1>is the behavior of the soon to be president of

0:45:13.719 --> 0:45:18.960
<v Speaker 1>the United States. You know, little girls were heartbroken when

0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Hillary didn't get to be president. So I think it's

0:45:23.680 --> 0:45:27.360
<v Speaker 1>what they seem. Children will listen. I sang that in

0:45:27.440 --> 0:45:30.960
<v Speaker 1>a song once, you know, and they will see, and

0:45:31.080 --> 0:45:34.680
<v Speaker 1>they will learn and and you know, I'm in the

0:45:34.719 --> 0:45:37.560
<v Speaker 1>middle of having my teeth cleaned. Chris. You caught me.

0:45:40.680 --> 0:45:43.480
<v Speaker 1>When Donald Trump needed to find an attorney general, all

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:46.120
<v Speaker 1>he had to do was look to his alt right

0:45:46.440 --> 0:45:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Republican Senator Jeff Sessions was a U S attorney in

0:45:50.040 --> 0:45:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Alabama when then President Ronald Reagan nominated him for the

0:45:54.360 --> 0:45:59.080
<v Speaker 1>Federal Court, but the appointment broke down at Sessions confirmation

0:45:59.160 --> 0:46:04.480
<v Speaker 1>hearing when allegations over his alleged racial remarks took center stage.

0:46:04.640 --> 0:46:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Sessions is a man ahead of his time. He

0:46:07.040 --> 0:46:10.160
<v Speaker 1>was also right when it was still just called racism.

0:46:10.360 --> 0:46:14.279
<v Speaker 1>Thomas Figures, a black former assistant U S attorney in Alabama,

0:46:14.719 --> 0:46:19.080
<v Speaker 1>testified Sessions called him boy, joked about the Ku Klux Klan,

0:46:19.239 --> 0:46:22.120
<v Speaker 1>and warned him about the way he spoke to white people.

0:46:22.520 --> 0:46:26.320
<v Speaker 1>That was that, But who is Jeff Sessions now? Session

0:46:26.840 --> 0:46:30.320
<v Speaker 1>is still a racist. Jeff Session has shown both in

0:46:30.440 --> 0:46:33.200
<v Speaker 1>his career as a U S attorney but also in

0:46:33.440 --> 0:46:36.480
<v Speaker 1>his career as a United States Senator, has been on

0:46:36.600 --> 0:46:40.040
<v Speaker 1>hostility to the enforcement of civil rights, particularly in the

0:46:40.200 --> 0:46:43.240
<v Speaker 1>area of voting rights. He's also opposed to same sex marriage,

0:46:43.440 --> 0:46:46.920
<v Speaker 1>rov Wade, equal pay, the Violence Against Women Act, and

0:46:47.160 --> 0:46:50.680
<v Speaker 1>universal background checks for gun purchases. Plus he's voted to

0:46:50.760 --> 0:46:56.400
<v Speaker 1>defund Planned Parenthood. Jeff Sessions for Attorney General even for Trump.

0:46:56.640 --> 0:47:01.880
<v Speaker 1>This guy's extreme. Alright, So there you have Barbara streisand

0:47:01.960 --> 0:47:04.200
<v Speaker 1>of course she's going to defend Meryl Streep. Of course

0:47:04.560 --> 0:47:07.279
<v Speaker 1>that is the top priority the liberal left, and then

0:47:07.320 --> 0:47:12.319
<v Speaker 1>the Democratic Oh, Jeff Sessions is so extreme? Are they

0:47:12.360 --> 0:47:16.240
<v Speaker 1>going to condemn this MTV culture writer joking that Sessions

0:47:16.280 --> 0:47:21.080
<v Speaker 1>had had stolen his Asian American granddaughter from toys r US.

0:47:21.280 --> 0:47:23.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, a lot happened today. I mean, you've got

0:47:23.600 --> 0:47:26.600
<v Speaker 1>people dressed up in white sheets, and it's just it's

0:47:26.760 --> 0:47:33.080
<v Speaker 1>right out of the old style Democratic playbook. Republicans are racist, sexist, homophobic, zenophobic,

0:47:33.239 --> 0:47:36.920
<v Speaker 1>is homophobic and any other phobia you can talk about. Anyway,

0:47:37.000 --> 0:47:39.800
<v Speaker 1>let's get to our phones as we say hi to

0:47:39.920 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Lewis the Liberal in Houston, Texas ktr H. What's up,

0:47:42.680 --> 0:47:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Lewis the Liberal? How are you? Sir? Hey? Mr Handley,

0:47:46.400 --> 0:47:49.000
<v Speaker 1>how are you doing? A long time? No here from Yeah,

0:47:49.160 --> 0:47:51.200
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? It's been a long time, Louis, what's

0:47:51.239 --> 0:47:52.879
<v Speaker 1>going on with you? You have a good year last year.

0:47:52.880 --> 0:47:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard from you in at least a year. Oh,

0:47:55.800 --> 0:47:58.799
<v Speaker 1>it's been probably about four years. It's it's it's been.

0:47:59.360 --> 0:48:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's put it the way. The last four or five

0:48:01.200 --> 0:48:04.040
<v Speaker 1>years have been rough for me. So for me be

0:48:04.160 --> 0:48:07.880
<v Speaker 1>able to be just in one position, one spot, to

0:48:08.520 --> 0:48:11.000
<v Speaker 1>listen to know what challenge you're gonna be on and

0:48:11.120 --> 0:48:16.640
<v Speaker 1>listen to you and call in has been practically impossible. Well,

0:48:16.719 --> 0:48:18.320
<v Speaker 1>let me ask you a question, what's going on in

0:48:18.440 --> 0:48:22.480
<v Speaker 1>your life? Could I help you out? What is the matter? Oh?

0:48:23.239 --> 0:48:29.799
<v Speaker 1>Mr Hanney, No, no, no, no, no, no no no no. Economic.

0:48:30.360 --> 0:48:33.399
<v Speaker 1>My issues were economic, and I have to Let's let's

0:48:33.440 --> 0:48:35.880
<v Speaker 1>put it this way. After two thousand if you were

0:48:35.920 --> 0:48:39.279
<v Speaker 1>called back in two thousand, uh, aid, we talked and

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:41.120
<v Speaker 1>you were trying to get me to go on to

0:48:41.560 --> 0:48:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Michael Barry's show, etcetera. Well, what happened was due to

0:48:45.000 --> 0:48:48.879
<v Speaker 1>do due to our scheduling calm confusion. I wasn't able

0:48:48.920 --> 0:48:52.880
<v Speaker 1>to be on the show. However, right after two thousand

0:48:52.880 --> 0:48:55.440
<v Speaker 1>and two thousand nine, because of the hope and change

0:48:55.520 --> 0:48:58.640
<v Speaker 1>that President Obama promise in the hopes of keeping my

0:48:58.800 --> 0:49:01.000
<v Speaker 1>house in my cars, I had to change where I

0:49:01.160 --> 0:49:03.920
<v Speaker 1>was working at. So I ended up having to start

0:49:04.000 --> 0:49:07.160
<v Speaker 1>traveling across the country to keep my to keep just

0:49:07.280 --> 0:49:11.879
<v Speaker 1>to keep the just to keep things in perspective, life

0:49:12.000 --> 0:49:15.400
<v Speaker 1>is life is very, very hard. You would not believe

0:49:15.480 --> 0:49:17.960
<v Speaker 1>how many conversations I have with all these young kids

0:49:18.000 --> 0:49:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that work for me about saving their money and being

0:49:21.280 --> 0:49:25.520
<v Speaker 1>responsible and uh and understanding that money equals freedom in

0:49:25.560 --> 0:49:30.520
<v Speaker 1>their life and you gotta take advantage of the opportunities. Um.

0:49:31.080 --> 0:49:34.800
<v Speaker 1>That comes your way and not spend recklessly. So anyway,

0:49:35.360 --> 0:49:38.480
<v Speaker 1>well listen, well know, So basically what this boiled down

0:49:38.560 --> 0:49:43.200
<v Speaker 1>to is that um I was working mostly local jobs here,

0:49:43.560 --> 0:49:48.160
<v Speaker 1>but too because of his possible I work in the

0:49:48.200 --> 0:49:51.000
<v Speaker 1>oil and gas industry, so so you can do the

0:49:51.080 --> 0:49:53.719
<v Speaker 1>math instead of something. To be able to do a

0:49:53.800 --> 0:49:56.279
<v Speaker 1>lot of work around here, I had to go on

0:49:56.400 --> 0:49:59.239
<v Speaker 1>the road and start finding work because everyone was holding

0:49:59.280 --> 0:50:01.600
<v Speaker 1>on their money on which way the penlum was gonna

0:50:01.640 --> 0:50:05.200
<v Speaker 1>swing with regard to his energy policy. And we've seen

0:50:05.280 --> 0:50:07.800
<v Speaker 1>which way they wit. So I had to stay on

0:50:07.840 --> 0:50:11.720
<v Speaker 1>the road about the last six seven eight years. Listen.

0:50:11.800 --> 0:50:14.239
<v Speaker 1>That makes it really hard. I'm not disagreeing at all.

0:50:14.719 --> 0:50:16.960
<v Speaker 1>And but here's the good news. Because of the way

0:50:17.040 --> 0:50:19.200
<v Speaker 1>the country voted, it would have been very different of

0:50:19.320 --> 0:50:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Hillary one. I'm pretty confident that energy independence is a

0:50:23.360 --> 0:50:25.799
<v Speaker 1>big part of the Trump agenda. I think a lot

0:50:25.920 --> 0:50:29.239
<v Speaker 1>of this can be done by removing executive orders in

0:50:29.400 --> 0:50:32.320
<v Speaker 1>terms of fracking and in terms of coal mining, in

0:50:32.480 --> 0:50:35.040
<v Speaker 1>terms of drilling, and I think if we make a

0:50:35.120 --> 0:50:38.719
<v Speaker 1>commitment whether or not the saudiast try to try to

0:50:38.840 --> 0:50:41.160
<v Speaker 1>bid down the price of a barrel of oil to

0:50:41.320 --> 0:50:43.640
<v Speaker 1>drive us out of business. If we're still committed to

0:50:43.760 --> 0:50:46.880
<v Speaker 1>energy independence. Ultimately, this is gonna be a win win

0:50:47.080 --> 0:50:50.440
<v Speaker 1>where millions of Americans like yourself, you know, it's a

0:50:50.520 --> 0:50:53.080
<v Speaker 1>lifelot of our economy. You're gonna be producing more oil,

0:50:53.160 --> 0:50:55.520
<v Speaker 1>more energy than we've ever produced in our entire lives,

0:50:55.560 --> 0:50:58.759
<v Speaker 1>and we'll probably have more natural gas available for our

0:50:58.840 --> 0:51:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Western European ally is him more. So just hang in there.

0:51:02.080 --> 0:51:04.440
<v Speaker 1>It help is on the way. And I admire the

0:51:04.560 --> 0:51:08.080
<v Speaker 1>fact that, Okay, opportunities went away for you in Houston,

0:51:08.200 --> 0:51:11.239
<v Speaker 1>but that didn't stop you. It made life harder, it

0:51:11.320 --> 0:51:13.960
<v Speaker 1>made life more difficult, but you didn't wine and and

0:51:14.200 --> 0:51:16.600
<v Speaker 1>moan and complain, and you got out there and you

0:51:16.719 --> 0:51:20.040
<v Speaker 1>found work wherever it was. I admire your your stick

0:51:20.080 --> 0:51:23.399
<v Speaker 1>tutive nous. I admire your strength. I admire your your

0:51:23.440 --> 0:51:26.520
<v Speaker 1>ability to survive. This is This world is hard. This

0:51:26.680 --> 0:51:29.400
<v Speaker 1>world is tough. This world will knock you down to

0:51:29.480 --> 0:51:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the ground. And as Rocky said to his son and Balboa,

0:51:32.960 --> 0:51:35.480
<v Speaker 1>it's not how hard you get hit, it's how you

0:51:35.960 --> 0:51:38.040
<v Speaker 1>get hit and you move forward. This is not an

0:51:38.160 --> 0:51:41.880
<v Speaker 1>easy thing life. My belief is that it's not how

0:51:42.040 --> 0:51:47.040
<v Speaker 1>it's life. Life people. Life is easy. People make it hard.

0:51:47.800 --> 0:51:50.439
<v Speaker 1>It's not I disagree. I actually think life is hard.

0:51:51.120 --> 0:51:53.480
<v Speaker 1>I think life is hard. I don't think life is easy.

0:51:53.760 --> 0:51:56.160
<v Speaker 1>I think life is difficult. If you ever read the

0:51:56.200 --> 0:51:58.760
<v Speaker 1>book The Road Less Travel, it starts out with that line,

0:51:59.080 --> 0:52:02.040
<v Speaker 1>life is diff of cold. Once you recognize that truth,

0:52:02.120 --> 0:52:05.240
<v Speaker 1>it does make it easier because you're not expecting everything

0:52:05.320 --> 0:52:07.920
<v Speaker 1>to get handed to you. You know, maybe you're absolutely right.

0:52:08.000 --> 0:52:09.880
<v Speaker 1>But by that same talking, like I said, I just

0:52:10.200 --> 0:52:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I believe this leads me into my reason why I

0:52:13.160 --> 0:52:18.399
<v Speaker 1>called concerning a Senator Sessions, Um, Senator Sessions, I don't

0:52:18.480 --> 0:52:20.560
<v Speaker 1>believe he's racist. And the reason I don't believe he's

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:24.560
<v Speaker 1>racist is simplest. He believes in the rule of law,

0:52:25.160 --> 0:52:28.400
<v Speaker 1>as we all should as Americans. And I say that

0:52:28.520 --> 0:52:32.480
<v Speaker 1>because if you were if I cannot sit up here

0:52:32.600 --> 0:52:35.080
<v Speaker 1>and say, well, you know what, I know, I was

0:52:35.160 --> 0:52:39.280
<v Speaker 1>going thirty five and a thirty miles Uh, Mr officers,

0:52:39.640 --> 0:52:42.640
<v Speaker 1>but guess what, I'm late for work, So that should

0:52:42.680 --> 0:52:44.200
<v Speaker 1>be an excuse for you to go ahead and not

0:52:44.360 --> 0:52:47.279
<v Speaker 1>give me a ticket. I can't say that because it's

0:52:47.520 --> 0:52:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I broke the law. So for you to say as

0:52:50.080 --> 0:52:52.120
<v Speaker 1>an example for the immigration is what they were talking

0:52:52.120 --> 0:52:56.839
<v Speaker 1>about with regardless. Senator Sessions that, um, he would want

0:52:56.880 --> 0:52:59.120
<v Speaker 1>to deport all of these people, and he would want

0:52:59.160 --> 0:53:02.520
<v Speaker 1>to uh stop all of their services and such. Well,

0:53:02.600 --> 0:53:04.920
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing is this, It's not a problem for

0:53:05.040 --> 0:53:07.560
<v Speaker 1>you being here. It's a problem for the way you

0:53:07.719 --> 0:53:12.040
<v Speaker 1>came in. You broke the law. If I were I

0:53:12.200 --> 0:53:14.719
<v Speaker 1>could not go into Spain and just sneak in and

0:53:14.880 --> 0:53:18.520
<v Speaker 1>stay there and they not have an issue with me

0:53:18.640 --> 0:53:21.440
<v Speaker 1>being there. The same thing with Germany, the same and

0:53:21.640 --> 0:53:24.880
<v Speaker 1>and and the same thing with our Mexican government, our

0:53:25.000 --> 0:53:28.399
<v Speaker 1>Mexican neighbors, same thing with Canada. It is interesting why

0:53:28.480 --> 0:53:29.680
<v Speaker 1>to let you go because they got a lot of

0:53:29.680 --> 0:53:32.200
<v Speaker 1>people waiting on the line here. But you know all

0:53:32.280 --> 0:53:35.200
<v Speaker 1>this talk, Well, Donald Trump asked for appropriations to build

0:53:35.239 --> 0:53:37.959
<v Speaker 1>the wall. Last night on TV, I played the cut

0:53:38.120 --> 0:53:40.560
<v Speaker 1>where I asked one of the many times I would

0:53:40.560 --> 0:53:44.080
<v Speaker 1>ask Donald Trump sort of the Trump town Hall archives

0:53:44.239 --> 0:53:47.080
<v Speaker 1>of the Sean Hannity Show, and I said, well, you know,

0:53:47.160 --> 0:53:49.279
<v Speaker 1>they're not gonna write you a check, and he said, yeah,

0:53:49.320 --> 0:53:51.959
<v Speaker 1>I know that. But when we negotiate new trade deals

0:53:52.000 --> 0:53:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and we do a B and C, they're gonna more

0:53:54.239 --> 0:53:56.040
<v Speaker 1>than pay for that wall, because we have much better

0:53:56.160 --> 0:53:59.799
<v Speaker 1>deals anyway. Now, Mexican's government announced today that they want

0:53:59.840 --> 0:54:02.800
<v Speaker 1>to be again negotiations with Trump as soon as possible

0:54:02.960 --> 0:54:06.359
<v Speaker 1>on trade, immigration, and the construction of Trump's border wall

0:54:06.600 --> 0:54:09.040
<v Speaker 1>and the thuds you've probably heard his poor vicecent A

0:54:09.200 --> 0:54:12.439
<v Speaker 1>Fox killing over over the holidays, that we're not paying

0:54:12.520 --> 0:54:16.080
<v Speaker 1>for that blanking wall. Anyway. Mexico's new form Relations secretary

0:54:16.200 --> 0:54:19.160
<v Speaker 1>said that his country isn't just willing to negotiate changes

0:54:19.200 --> 0:54:22.520
<v Speaker 1>to NAFTA, it wants to start talks as soon as possible,

0:54:22.719 --> 0:54:25.680
<v Speaker 1>and he said there's an enormous uncertainty. What's happening is

0:54:26.120 --> 0:54:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump by telling the business community that he is

0:54:29.600 --> 0:54:32.279
<v Speaker 1>going to create a better business environment, as resulting in

0:54:32.440 --> 0:54:35.480
<v Speaker 1>all of these companies now willing to stay here. Anyway.

0:54:35.600 --> 0:54:39.560
<v Speaker 1>I digress, Uh, back to our busy telephones. Louis the Liberal,

0:54:39.640 --> 0:54:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, my friend. Let's go to who's there? Nina

0:54:43.960 --> 0:54:46.479
<v Speaker 1>is in Sara Sota, Florida. How are you, Nina? Glad

0:54:46.520 --> 0:54:49.239
<v Speaker 1>you called? Hi? How you doing? Sean? Happy New year,

0:54:49.680 --> 0:54:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Happy new year to you. I'm calling them in regards

0:54:53.520 --> 0:54:57.520
<v Speaker 1>to jet session confirmation hearing. And you just touched briefly

0:54:57.600 --> 0:55:01.120
<v Speaker 1>before the tire collar with the empt b News tweet

0:55:01.160 --> 0:55:04.560
<v Speaker 1>that went out. Um, this was just so I was

0:55:04.640 --> 0:55:08.160
<v Speaker 1>just taking back because here we have these people standing outside,

0:55:08.239 --> 0:55:10.759
<v Speaker 1>we have a confirmation hearing going on for a Jeff

0:55:10.800 --> 0:55:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Session and they are accusing him of being a racist.

0:55:15.000 --> 0:55:17.920
<v Speaker 1>And then you have this guy from MTV news and

0:55:18.320 --> 0:55:20.840
<v Speaker 1>nobody watches MTV news. I know that, but you know

0:55:20.920 --> 0:55:24.799
<v Speaker 1>who does. Our children do, unfortunately, and they're the ones

0:55:24.880 --> 0:55:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that are most impressionable. They're the ones that are picking

0:55:28.280 --> 0:55:32.280
<v Speaker 1>up on all this racism and this anti Trump stuff,

0:55:32.360 --> 0:55:35.280
<v Speaker 1>and they're the future of our of our of our country.

0:55:35.680 --> 0:55:39.920
<v Speaker 1>And I just I find this extremely appalling that this man, um,

0:55:40.080 --> 0:55:43.759
<v Speaker 1>what's his name, Ariy Madison could actually put out a

0:55:43.880 --> 0:55:47.520
<v Speaker 1>tweet with the picture of Mr Jeff Session sitting there

0:55:47.600 --> 0:55:51.920
<v Speaker 1>with his innocent, beautiful grand baby, regardless of what her races,

0:55:52.320 --> 0:55:55.359
<v Speaker 1>and to call her a prop in his second post,

0:55:55.440 --> 0:55:57.640
<v Speaker 1>first he said return out the toys, raz but then

0:55:57.719 --> 0:56:00.200
<v Speaker 1>he called her a prop that he was you think,

0:56:00.840 --> 0:56:04.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, can you only only a liberal can do this?

0:56:04.719 --> 0:56:09.360
<v Speaker 1>If we us conservatives, we would never say something like that.

0:56:09.640 --> 0:56:11.640
<v Speaker 1>We would never be allowed to say. You know, and

0:56:12.000 --> 0:56:14.200
<v Speaker 1>it's funny when you say this, because liberals have this

0:56:14.520 --> 0:56:18.880
<v Speaker 1>so called monopoly on compassion um. If if Jeff Sessions

0:56:18.920 --> 0:56:21.120
<v Speaker 1>had ever said it, I mean, it would be remarkable

0:56:21.160 --> 0:56:24.000
<v Speaker 1>the amount of coverage that would have. But this happens

0:56:24.080 --> 0:56:27.080
<v Speaker 1>all the time. Just just think back Joe Biden. I mean,

0:56:27.160 --> 0:56:30.319
<v Speaker 1>here's the first African r It's it's storybook man. He's

0:56:30.440 --> 0:56:37.440
<v Speaker 1>he's clean, the first articulate stream African American who is

0:56:37.600 --> 0:56:46.480
<v Speaker 1>articulate and bright and clean. I mean, it's a story articulate, bright, clean,

0:56:46.920 --> 0:56:50.800
<v Speaker 1>nice looking guy. This is like a storybook fantasy. Wow.

0:56:51.280 --> 0:56:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Is that not racist? I mean, it's it's just I

0:56:54.440 --> 0:56:59.200
<v Speaker 1>can't imagine a Republican saying that ever and getting away

0:56:59.280 --> 0:57:01.239
<v Speaker 1>with it. And this is the party the claims that

0:57:02.080 --> 0:57:05.560
<v Speaker 1>that the masses love them, that they are the Party

0:57:05.640 --> 0:57:10.200
<v Speaker 1>of compassion, and Conservatives are racist and sexist and homophobic,

0:57:10.280 --> 0:57:13.480
<v Speaker 1>islamophobic and xenophobic. It's all not true. It's a myth,

0:57:13.560 --> 0:57:15.480
<v Speaker 1>it's a lie. It's a talking point that's used every

0:57:15.520 --> 0:57:18.320
<v Speaker 1>election year. Anyway, John and upstate New York, John High,

0:57:18.360 --> 0:57:20.320
<v Speaker 1>How are you glad you called? Hey, Sean, Thanks for

0:57:20.360 --> 0:57:22.040
<v Speaker 1>taking my call. How are you doing today? I'm good?

0:57:22.080 --> 0:57:24.880
<v Speaker 1>How are you? I'm great? Thanks? Hey, Sean. I enjoyed

0:57:24.960 --> 0:57:29.360
<v Speaker 1>hearing you debate Chris Han yesterday. Actually, I've enjoyed seeing

0:57:29.480 --> 0:57:32.840
<v Speaker 1>him over the years on Fox as I went to

0:57:32.920 --> 0:57:38.120
<v Speaker 1>college with Chris and debated him quite extensively in Professor

0:57:38.200 --> 0:57:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Goldstein's class. So we had a couple of political science

0:57:40.760 --> 0:57:44.680
<v Speaker 1>classes together in Albany. And it's interesting to me that

0:57:44.960 --> 0:57:48.120
<v Speaker 1>all these years later, over twenty five years later, he's

0:57:48.120 --> 0:57:51.480
<v Speaker 1>still just as misguided as he was then, even if

0:57:51.520 --> 0:57:54.240
<v Speaker 1>he is still just as passionate. But it's unbelievable to

0:57:54.320 --> 0:57:57.200
<v Speaker 1>me that he hasn't learned anything. Well, you know, you're

0:57:57.280 --> 0:58:00.280
<v Speaker 1>just some people that are just so ideological and political.

0:58:01.000 --> 0:58:03.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't have a problem admitting that Republicans

0:58:03.760 --> 0:58:08.400
<v Speaker 1>are weak, Republicans are feckless, Republicans have been visionist, Republicans

0:58:08.440 --> 0:58:13.280
<v Speaker 1>are lost, Republicans have disappointed. Um so many people that

0:58:13.400 --> 0:58:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Republicans have lost their way. Um. My hope for Donald

0:58:17.440 --> 0:58:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Trump is, I know he's going up against not only

0:58:20.360 --> 0:58:23.920
<v Speaker 1>a democratic and media establishment, but also a Republican establishment

0:58:24.240 --> 0:58:26.880
<v Speaker 1>that is gonna They're gonna coward, they're gonna buckle, they're

0:58:26.880 --> 0:58:28.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna want to and it's gonna be Trump that holds

0:58:28.880 --> 0:58:33.480
<v Speaker 1>them up. I hope when you don't vote, you let

0:58:33.640 --> 0:58:39.840
<v Speaker 1>another church explode. When you don't vote, you allow another

0:58:39.920 --> 0:58:44.920
<v Speaker 1>cross to burn. When you don't vote, you let another

0:58:45.040 --> 0:58:48.600
<v Speaker 1>assault wound a brother or sister. When you don't vote,

0:58:48.920 --> 0:58:51.880
<v Speaker 1>you let the Republicans continue to cut school launches and

0:58:52.200 --> 0:59:00.360
<v Speaker 1>hit start. The first sort of man Americans who is

0:59:00.480 --> 0:59:05.760
<v Speaker 1>artiiculate and right in and clean bice looking guy. I

0:59:05.880 --> 0:59:11.960
<v Speaker 1>don't feel no ways tired. I come too far from

0:59:12.000 --> 0:59:16.520
<v Speaker 1>where I started from. Nobody told me that the road

0:59:16.680 --> 0:59:20.560
<v Speaker 1>would be easy. You cannot go to a seven eleven

0:59:21.320 --> 0:59:24.360
<v Speaker 1>or Duncan Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.

0:59:25.480 --> 0:59:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not chuckle. I'm actually hold not to remember the

0:59:28.240 --> 0:59:30.200
<v Speaker 1>good old days, and they weren't all that good in

0:59:30.360 --> 0:59:37.880
<v Speaker 1>many ways. That message where y'all give you America great

0:59:37.920 --> 0:59:42.120
<v Speaker 1>again is if you're a white Southern you know exactly

0:59:42.160 --> 0:59:46.919
<v Speaker 1>what it means, don't you. He's speaking to a population

0:59:47.120 --> 0:59:50.360
<v Speaker 1>of this segment of the population who does not like

0:59:50.720 --> 0:59:52.760
<v Speaker 1>to see people other than a white man in a

0:59:52.800 --> 0:59:55.440
<v Speaker 1>white house, in any other elected position. I don't know

0:59:55.520 --> 0:59:59.480
<v Speaker 1>how anyone of Hispanic heritage could be a Republican. Okay,

0:59:59.680 --> 1:00:01.800
<v Speaker 1>going need to say Moromney wants to let the he

1:00:01.880 --> 1:00:03.960
<v Speaker 1>said in the first hundred days, he's gonna let the

1:00:04.000 --> 1:00:09.480
<v Speaker 1>big banks once again write their own rules. Unchained Wall Street.

1:00:09.680 --> 1:00:12.200
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna put you all back in cheese. Don't tell

1:00:12.360 --> 1:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>me we live in a color bland society. The Republicans

1:00:16.960 --> 1:00:21.640
<v Speaker 1>know that there is the wrong agenda for African Americans.

1:00:21.920 --> 1:00:24.640
<v Speaker 1>That's why they don't even want to count you in

1:00:24.760 --> 1:00:32.000
<v Speaker 1>the census. They're doing everything they can to stop black people, Latinos,

1:00:32.560 --> 1:00:38.720
<v Speaker 1>poor people, young people, people with disabilities from voting. It's

1:00:38.880 --> 1:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>a blast from the Jim pro past. I thought we

1:00:42.840 --> 1:00:46.040
<v Speaker 1>had won that battle back in the nineteen sixties. No,

1:00:46.480 --> 1:00:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that they played the race card on me,

1:00:48.520 --> 1:00:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and we now know from memos from the campaign and

1:00:51.320 --> 1:00:55.360
<v Speaker 1>everything that they planned to do it all along intens

1:00:55.680 --> 1:00:59.360
<v Speaker 1>My father was cute. He was beaten, chained and stained

1:00:59.400 --> 1:01:03.280
<v Speaker 1>clean mouth Tuesday, all because he was black. So when

1:01:03.320 --> 1:01:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Governor George W. Bush refused to support hate crimes legislation,

1:01:07.720 --> 1:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>it was like my father was killed all over again.

1:01:11.280 --> 1:01:14.439
<v Speaker 1>Called George W. Bush and tell him to support hate

1:01:14.440 --> 1:01:18.520
<v Speaker 1>crimes legislation. We won't be dragged away from my future.

1:01:19.680 --> 1:01:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Why am I being taken out of here? This man

1:01:22.760 --> 1:01:29.600
<v Speaker 1>is evil. You're evil, do not over good? Don't the way?

1:01:30.280 --> 1:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much for being him bole We what

1:01:33.480 --> 1:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>do we have to do? Wait, but you get arrested

1:01:35.480 --> 1:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>on work. White people don't get arrested. Look a minute,

1:01:38.960 --> 1:01:51.840
<v Speaker 1>what will one day imbody as attorney general? I just

1:01:51.960 --> 1:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>wanted to sit. They were still listening. I think they're

1:02:33.160 --> 1:02:35.240
<v Speaker 1>on the fence about get MO, but I'm not sure.

1:02:38.400 --> 1:03:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Does not feel good? You're familiar with Canada? Um, we

1:03:09.040 --> 1:03:28.800
<v Speaker 1>are all right, News round up and information overload. Our

1:03:28.960 --> 1:03:31.120
<v Speaker 1>here on the Sean Hannity Show, will get to your

1:03:31.160 --> 1:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>calls at the bottom of this hour one, Shawn. Those

1:03:34.480 --> 1:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>were at the end some of the sounds of what

1:03:37.200 --> 1:03:41.040
<v Speaker 1>happened at the Jeff Sessions confirmation hearings from earlier today

1:03:41.160 --> 1:03:44.960
<v Speaker 1>and leading up to that, a history that has become

1:03:45.040 --> 1:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>all too familiar, and that is a Democratic Party that

1:03:49.200 --> 1:03:58.680
<v Speaker 1>is void of ideas, consistently constantly reflexively almost hypnotically with

1:03:58.800 --> 1:04:02.720
<v Speaker 1>their bumper stickers, slogans, and their mean spirited attacks that

1:04:03.240 --> 1:04:06.919
<v Speaker 1>Republicans and Conservatives are racist? Do you like Republicans? Black

1:04:07.080 --> 1:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>churches are going to burn the Democratic Party and Missouri

1:04:10.680 --> 1:04:13.400
<v Speaker 1>said in a radio ad in night, They're gonna put

1:04:13.560 --> 1:04:18.560
<v Speaker 1>all back in change. Joe changed. Joe Biden said, Republicans

1:04:18.640 --> 1:04:21.680
<v Speaker 1>have the wrong agenda for African Americans. They don't even

1:04:21.760 --> 1:04:25.040
<v Speaker 1>want to count you in the census. A blast from

1:04:25.080 --> 1:04:28.280
<v Speaker 1>the Jim Crow past James Bird. It's like my father

1:04:28.480 --> 1:04:32.000
<v Speaker 1>was killed all over again because George Bush didn't support

1:04:32.040 --> 1:04:35.560
<v Speaker 1>hate crimes legislation, but he did support the death penalty

1:04:35.760 --> 1:04:40.479
<v Speaker 1>for the people responsible for the evil, horrific dragging death

1:04:40.640 --> 1:04:44.680
<v Speaker 1>of this this man, James Bird. Um. It is typical,

1:04:45.080 --> 1:04:49.160
<v Speaker 1>it is predictable, it is repugnant, and it's on display

1:04:49.280 --> 1:04:52.480
<v Speaker 1>for all the world to see. Pastor Daryl Scott, founder

1:04:52.640 --> 1:04:56.760
<v Speaker 1>and Senior Pastor of the New Spirit Revival Center. Pastor

1:04:57.040 --> 1:04:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Charles Christian Adams or the Reverend Charles Christian Adams, presid

1:05:00.040 --> 1:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>dating Pastor of Hartford Memorial Baptist Church in Detroit, Michigan,

1:05:04.240 --> 1:05:07.840
<v Speaker 1>welcome both of you to the program. Mom. Pastor, I'll

1:05:07.880 --> 1:05:10.640
<v Speaker 1>ask you Adams, do you do you find any of

1:05:10.720 --> 1:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>what you just heard repugnant and untrue? I mean, I assume,

1:05:14.600 --> 1:05:17.160
<v Speaker 1>as a pastor, you believe the truth shall set us free,

1:05:17.280 --> 1:05:20.240
<v Speaker 1>right absolutely, and the truth is that, and the truth

1:05:20.400 --> 1:05:24.200
<v Speaker 1>is is that Republicans are not racist. Isn't that absolutely?

1:05:24.240 --> 1:05:27.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that they are fundamentally racist. No, I

1:05:27.240 --> 1:05:30.560
<v Speaker 1>know many African American Republicans. So when the when the

1:05:30.600 --> 1:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party says, if you like Republicans, black churches are

1:05:33.840 --> 1:05:36.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna burn, or Joe Biden says they're gonna put you

1:05:36.240 --> 1:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>all back in chains, and when Al Gore says they

1:05:38.520 --> 1:05:40.800
<v Speaker 1>don't want to count you in the census, and Hillary

1:05:40.880 --> 1:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>Clinton says, this is a blast from the Jim Crow past,

1:05:44.240 --> 1:05:47.600
<v Speaker 1>and they're trying to compare Jeff Sessions, who actually put

1:05:48.000 --> 1:05:51.800
<v Speaker 1>clan members in jail as a klansman. It's it's evil,

1:05:51.880 --> 1:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>isn't that. Isn't that one of the big ten that

1:05:53.600 --> 1:05:55.720
<v Speaker 1>will shall not bear false witness? Isn't that one of

1:05:55.800 --> 1:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>the big ten? The important thing is to remember the

1:05:59.080 --> 1:06:03.640
<v Speaker 1>context and these comments were made, and as they relate

1:06:03.880 --> 1:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>to uh Jeff Sessions, it's simply his past that they are. Well, specifically,

1:06:10.440 --> 1:06:12.600
<v Speaker 1>you have to if you're going to make that accusation

1:06:13.280 --> 1:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>specifically some of some of the mistakes that he has made,

1:06:17.880 --> 1:06:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Well tell me what the mistakes are, because can you

1:06:21.080 --> 1:06:24.400
<v Speaker 1>please tell me specifically? What what what are you talking about? Well,

1:06:24.600 --> 1:06:29.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about in UH nine when he tried to

1:06:29.680 --> 1:06:34.800
<v Speaker 1>prosecute the voter fraud case in Alabama, in which it

1:06:35.000 --> 1:06:38.600
<v Speaker 1>was not successful, but he still sticks by it. He

1:06:38.760 --> 1:06:42.680
<v Speaker 1>says that you know, he prosecuted today just like he

1:06:42.800 --> 1:06:46.160
<v Speaker 1>prosecuted it then. So somehow even though he put clan

1:06:46.280 --> 1:06:50.360
<v Speaker 1>members in jail, fought on multiple occasions, multiple occasions for

1:06:50.880 --> 1:06:54.240
<v Speaker 1>civil rights and voting rights and voted you know, in

1:06:54.400 --> 1:06:56.640
<v Speaker 1>all these instances, I mean, I have a whole list

1:06:56.720 --> 1:06:59.160
<v Speaker 1>of him here delivering for all the people in this country.

1:06:59.200 --> 1:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>African America is included. So even though he tried to

1:07:02.760 --> 1:07:05.560
<v Speaker 1>fight for voting rights for all, you somehow hold it

1:07:05.600 --> 1:07:07.960
<v Speaker 1>against him that he didn't win a case, but he

1:07:08.280 --> 1:07:14.720
<v Speaker 1>targeted specifically the African Americans and their behavior around the purpose.

1:07:15.080 --> 1:07:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Just the opposite is true. If nobody else though, then

1:07:18.640 --> 1:07:21.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's what the concern is as far his his

1:07:21.360 --> 1:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>application of the law. I'm trying to understand your logic here,

1:07:26.320 --> 1:07:30.280
<v Speaker 1>because you know, he was the top civil rights enforcement case.

1:07:30.360 --> 1:07:33.720
<v Speaker 1>He was the one that in one worked with the

1:07:33.880 --> 1:07:37.439
<v Speaker 1>Department of Justice, the FBI and to solve the murder

1:07:37.520 --> 1:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>of a nineteen year old African American Michael Donald and

1:07:40.520 --> 1:07:44.320
<v Speaker 1>his U S. Attorney's office prosecutor Tiger Knowles as an accomplice,

1:07:44.600 --> 1:07:47.120
<v Speaker 1>and he is spending the rest of his life in prison.

1:07:47.720 --> 1:07:50.920
<v Speaker 1>And he shifted the case of the KKK murder Henry

1:07:50.960 --> 1:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Hayes to a state court where he got the death penalty.

1:07:53.560 --> 1:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>And it's the same Jeff Sessions who successfully prosecuted the

1:07:57.120 --> 1:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Alabama Ku Klux Klan Great Titan Jacks. And it was

1:08:00.880 --> 1:08:03.439
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Sessions that brought the first lawsuit in the history

1:08:03.440 --> 1:08:05.800
<v Speaker 1>of the Department of Justice to stop the suppression of

1:08:05.840 --> 1:08:09.720
<v Speaker 1>African American voting rights in the US versus Connage County.

1:08:09.880 --> 1:08:13.040
<v Speaker 1>The Department of Justice Civil Rights Division, along with Sessions

1:08:13.040 --> 1:08:15.440
<v Speaker 1>sued that county and white officials and by the way

1:08:15.520 --> 1:08:17.519
<v Speaker 1>they had to settle, and by the way he won.

1:08:18.320 --> 1:08:22.040
<v Speaker 1>So I ask you, Pastor Darryl Scott, listen, this race

1:08:22.120 --> 1:08:25.439
<v Speaker 1>card is being played out. It's being overused to the

1:08:25.560 --> 1:08:27.800
<v Speaker 1>point that all of America is sick of it. And

1:08:27.880 --> 1:08:30.479
<v Speaker 1>they have a number of allegations without any real proof

1:08:30.600 --> 1:08:32.960
<v Speaker 1>and willing will know truth to Democrats are the ones

1:08:33.000 --> 1:08:37.759
<v Speaker 1>that demonstrated straight racism. The Curtains privatized prisons that enabled

1:08:37.840 --> 1:08:41.439
<v Speaker 1>harshest then they enabled harshest sentences to bring black folks

1:08:41.560 --> 1:08:45.680
<v Speaker 1>to heal in prison after they privatize them. You know

1:08:46.200 --> 1:08:50.160
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying is the Republican Party has being profiled

1:08:50.560 --> 1:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>by the party that claims to embrace diversity and to

1:08:53.800 --> 1:08:57.200
<v Speaker 1>be against profile. They ever trying to profile all Republicans

1:08:57.360 --> 1:08:59.519
<v Speaker 1>as a racist. But when you go down and begin

1:08:59.680 --> 1:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>want again to examine Jeff Sessions passed. He voted for

1:09:03.400 --> 1:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>the extension of the Civil Rights Act. He voted to

1:09:06.320 --> 1:09:09.560
<v Speaker 1>confirm Eric Holders, the first black attorney General. He co

1:09:09.760 --> 1:09:13.200
<v Speaker 1>sponsored legislation to bring possession for crack cocaine more in

1:09:13.360 --> 1:09:15.959
<v Speaker 1>line with the punalty for a possession of powder cocaine.

1:09:16.320 --> 1:09:19.360
<v Speaker 1>He spearheaded up as to a roll award Rolls of

1:09:19.479 --> 1:09:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Parts to Alabama. She was an Alabama native. He wanted

1:09:22.800 --> 1:09:25.599
<v Speaker 1>her to get the Congressional Gold Medal. Even campaigned against

1:09:25.680 --> 1:09:28.599
<v Speaker 1>George Wallace, the face of racism for the Democratic Party

1:09:28.640 --> 1:09:31.040
<v Speaker 1>in Alabama when he was younger. Now, from what I understand,

1:09:31.120 --> 1:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>then these guys must be skizoid racist or something, because

1:09:34.479 --> 1:09:36.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, one minute you guys claimed they're racist, and

1:09:36.760 --> 1:09:39.760
<v Speaker 1>then on another minute we see all of these instances

1:09:39.800 --> 1:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>where they champion the campaign for civil rights. You either

1:09:43.280 --> 1:09:45.600
<v Speaker 1>racists or you are either he is or is, and

1:09:45.680 --> 1:09:48.040
<v Speaker 1>if he is, then he would demonstrate all of the

1:09:48.400 --> 1:09:52.080
<v Speaker 1>UH symptoms of racism, when in fact he does it.

1:09:52.280 --> 1:09:55.080
<v Speaker 1>It seems as if the Democrats, as all the Democrats have,

1:09:55.439 --> 1:10:00.479
<v Speaker 1>they don't have anything tangible or substantive to deny these appintments,

1:10:00.560 --> 1:10:03.280
<v Speaker 1>to deny these votes. So the simple to say, don't

1:10:03.360 --> 1:10:05.400
<v Speaker 1>vote for him, don't take him, don't do anything. Why

1:10:05.479 --> 1:10:08.960
<v Speaker 1>because he's a racist? What is your reaction? You have

1:10:09.040 --> 1:10:11.400
<v Speaker 1>a lot of examples. I don't think Jeff Sessions is

1:10:11.400 --> 1:10:14.559
<v Speaker 1>a friend of Eric Holder, and I think he voted

1:10:14.600 --> 1:10:19.320
<v Speaker 1>for him, whether he voted for Blair hated black people

1:10:19.600 --> 1:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>did when we not vote for a black person. But

1:10:25.080 --> 1:10:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Congress has stood as an obstructionist to Barack Obama's policies,

1:10:31.040 --> 1:10:36.120
<v Speaker 1>and they stood within uh airic Holder's term as a

1:10:36.600 --> 1:10:42.080
<v Speaker 1>constant UH threat to what they were trying to accomplish.

1:10:42.720 --> 1:10:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Is the Congressional Black Congress. Is that a racist organization?

1:10:46.640 --> 1:10:51.479
<v Speaker 1>Because Congressional Black Caucus do not in an office one

1:10:51.560 --> 1:10:54.599
<v Speaker 1>day and they've already pledged to oppose whatever he tried

1:10:54.640 --> 1:10:57.120
<v Speaker 1>to do. Now they're doing that because he's white. Yeah,

1:10:57.520 --> 1:11:00.960
<v Speaker 1>but you know what you said, I and what will

1:11:01.240 --> 1:11:07.680
<v Speaker 1>you say, you're saying they have not fled to obstruct

1:11:07.760 --> 1:11:12.800
<v Speaker 1>with the same vigor President elect Trump as UH Congress

1:11:13.200 --> 1:11:18.080
<v Speaker 1>obstructive President Barack Obama. It was unprecedented the level of

1:11:18.200 --> 1:11:23.040
<v Speaker 1>obstruction that we saw under President Barack Obama. It was

1:11:24.320 --> 1:11:25.920
<v Speaker 1>all right, let me, let me ask this question. I

1:11:26.000 --> 1:11:29.920
<v Speaker 1>want to ask these important questions for racial reasons. That's racist.

1:11:30.120 --> 1:11:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Can you name any any statistic, pastor Adams, any one thing,

1:11:35.720 --> 1:11:38.960
<v Speaker 1>any one economic telltale sign that shows that in the

1:11:39.040 --> 1:11:41.880
<v Speaker 1>eight years Obama has been president, that black Americans are

1:11:41.920 --> 1:11:44.640
<v Speaker 1>better off because we have millions of more Black Americans,

1:11:45.400 --> 1:11:47.640
<v Speaker 1>increase of Black Americans out of the labor force, We

1:11:47.760 --> 1:11:50.320
<v Speaker 1>have a massive increase of Black Americans on food stamps

1:11:50.320 --> 1:11:53.599
<v Speaker 1>and in poverty. Tell me where Barack Obama's agendas helped

1:11:53.600 --> 1:11:55.920
<v Speaker 1>Black America. Well, you know I've said it before that

1:11:56.040 --> 1:11:58.679
<v Speaker 1>the property give me a specific, give me one specific,

1:11:58.960 --> 1:12:01.920
<v Speaker 1>give me one specific measure where Black Americans are better off.

1:12:02.040 --> 1:12:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Obama has been president eight years. I'm going to tell

1:12:04.280 --> 1:12:09.720
<v Speaker 1>you the poverty rate under President Barack Obama was continued

1:12:09.800 --> 1:12:12.800
<v Speaker 1>to shrink. No, do we have eight million more excuse me, sir,

1:12:12.960 --> 1:12:15.679
<v Speaker 1>we have eight million more Americans on poverty since Obama

1:12:15.680 --> 1:12:17.960
<v Speaker 1>has been elected. Yes, but we were it was growing

1:12:18.000 --> 1:12:23.840
<v Speaker 1>at a higher rate under so that's not true. So

1:12:24.040 --> 1:12:26.920
<v Speaker 1>eight million more Americans and poverty is a success for you.

1:12:27.120 --> 1:12:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Thirteen million more Americans on food stamps is a success

1:12:30.200 --> 1:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>for you. The lowest labor participation rate Americans out of

1:12:33.840 --> 1:12:36.479
<v Speaker 1>the labor force is successful to you. But the question

1:12:36.600 --> 1:12:39.440
<v Speaker 1>is what was it before Barack Obama was elected. I'm

1:12:39.600 --> 1:12:41.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving you the numbers. Since I'm giving you the

1:12:41.800 --> 1:12:44.800
<v Speaker 1>numbers since Obama has been in office, he accumulated more

1:12:44.920 --> 1:12:48.760
<v Speaker 1>debt than all forty three presidents combined. That success to you, Well,

1:12:48.840 --> 1:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>he had to reinvest in the infrastructure of the United States.

1:12:52.320 --> 1:12:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean with took money. It took money to stem

1:12:56.240 --> 1:13:01.600
<v Speaker 1>the tide of the of the political I mean that

1:13:01.800 --> 1:13:07.120
<v Speaker 1>the economic downturn that we had taken under Bush. But no, no, no, no,

1:13:07.320 --> 1:13:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the downturn that was taken under Bush was simply the

1:13:10.439 --> 1:13:13.200
<v Speaker 1>house of guards that collapsed. That was built by the Clintons.

1:13:13.400 --> 1:13:15.840
<v Speaker 1>The Clintons were in control when the banks were deregulating,

1:13:15.880 --> 1:13:18.400
<v Speaker 1>and stop privately was in that. It was the house

1:13:18.479 --> 1:13:21.400
<v Speaker 1>of cards built under under Clinton that collapsed. On the

1:13:21.520 --> 1:13:23.240
<v Speaker 1>bus all right, I gotta leave it there. Thank you

1:13:23.320 --> 1:13:24.960

<v Speaker 1>to you because you're gonna love it. She gets to

1:14:20.120 --> 1:14:24.320
<v Speaker 1>the point where he says, well, politicians are stupid. Politicians

1:14:24.400 --> 1:14:27.960
<v Speaker 1>are stupid, and she flips out because she's like, I

1:14:28.080 --> 1:14:34.519
<v Speaker 1>have my word. That's so funny. Love it, you know what,

1:14:34.640 --> 1:14:36.640
<v Speaker 1>It's so funny. And I was glad to get him.

1:14:36.680 --> 1:14:38.360
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, I bought them before he won

1:14:38.520 --> 1:14:42.320
<v Speaker 1>the election. How do you like that? I know? So

1:14:42.400 --> 1:14:44.479
<v Speaker 1>what's on your mind on the show, and we were like,

1:14:44.600 --> 1:14:47.960
<v Speaker 1>we have that, we have to have that. I'm so thankful.

1:14:48.120 --> 1:14:50.479
<v Speaker 1>I think we had like a hundred thousand plus requests.

1:14:50.479 --> 1:14:54.320
<v Speaker 1>It was crazy. Well, I know because the collector's items, now,

1:14:54.600 --> 1:14:57.240
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, I'm never given that thing away. Okay,

1:14:57.400 --> 1:14:59.519
<v Speaker 1>so but not also because it's from you. You know,

1:14:59.760 --> 1:15:04.040
<v Speaker 1>it's at your golden touch, so anywhere from So today

1:15:04.200 --> 1:15:08.400
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna talk about with your help here Trump's media farcities.

1:15:08.400 --> 1:15:10.120
<v Speaker 1>That just made that word up. You like it? I

1:15:10.240 --> 1:15:13.280
<v Speaker 1>like it? Tell me why? All right? So Number one,

1:15:13.400 --> 1:15:16.000
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna talk about Putin because of your awesome interview

1:15:16.120 --> 1:15:17.760
<v Speaker 1>that you did with the Suns, which we were just

1:15:17.960 --> 1:15:20.880
<v Speaker 1>glued to the TV, completely riveted. I mean back in

1:15:20.960 --> 1:15:22.840
<v Speaker 1>two thousand. Don't you don't know this about me? My

1:15:22.920 --> 1:15:25.679
<v Speaker 1>degree was post Soviet East European Studies. That's my degree.

1:15:25.680 --> 1:15:28.800
<v Speaker 1>I studied that in college. So Putin has been on

1:15:28.960 --> 1:15:32.280
<v Speaker 1>my radar since back in two thousand when he took power,

1:15:32.520 --> 1:15:33.880
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, we've watched him sort of the

1:15:33.960 --> 1:15:37.040
<v Speaker 1>imaginations of how he's continued to keep this power. And

1:15:37.120 --> 1:15:39.240
<v Speaker 1>now the whole media is, oh, you know, he's this,

1:15:39.960 --> 1:15:42.280
<v Speaker 1>this is something that he everyone's been colluding, which the

1:15:42.320 --> 1:15:45.680
<v Speaker 1>Trump Chris campus colluded to get him into power, and

1:15:45.960 --> 1:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>they're best friends, and all he can do is to

1:15:48.120 --> 1:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>flatter him. You know, that's just the biggest farsity ever.

1:15:51.439 --> 1:15:53.519
<v Speaker 1>And you and I know that this is because Trump

1:15:54.240 --> 1:15:58.040
<v Speaker 1>can read people. Trump knows his number. He wants to

1:15:58.080 --> 1:16:00.920
<v Speaker 1>have an advantageous relationship with somebody. He doesn't want to

1:16:00.960 --> 1:16:04.600
<v Speaker 1>create another Cold War. But he's not stupid. You know

1:16:04.640 --> 1:16:08.120
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. Listen, I think the world will respect

1:16:08.240 --> 1:16:11.880
<v Speaker 1>him more, and the world fearing and respecting America is

1:16:12.040 --> 1:16:16.080
<v Speaker 1>better for the world because that that means, Look, there's

1:16:16.120 --> 1:16:19.599
<v Speaker 1>this Fear is a great motivator in life. Like, for example,

1:16:19.880 --> 1:16:21.600
<v Speaker 1>one of the things in the last five years of

1:16:21.680 --> 1:16:25.160
<v Speaker 1>my life is I've worked hard on learning self defense. Now,

1:16:25.280 --> 1:16:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Linda and Lauren and Jason and Ethan and sweet baby James,

1:16:29.320 --> 1:16:31.479
<v Speaker 1>they kind of make fun of me and my son

1:16:31.680 --> 1:16:33.800
<v Speaker 1>used to make fun of me until I showed him

1:16:33.880 --> 1:16:36.479
<v Speaker 1>some moves. And he's not making fun like he used

1:16:36.520 --> 1:16:40.439
<v Speaker 1>to anymore. Nina, Well, I don't think I'm a ninja,

1:16:40.520 --> 1:16:44.920
<v Speaker 1>but it's it's very it's a very very violent art

1:16:45.000 --> 1:16:50.160
<v Speaker 1>that I'm learning. It's a combination. It's full body contact.

1:16:50.280 --> 1:16:55.600
<v Speaker 1>It's it's everything from from grappling to boxing, to crowdmagad

1:16:55.760 --> 1:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>to kempo to jiu jitsu. But basically how to win

1:16:59.000 --> 1:17:02.160
<v Speaker 1>a street fight. There's blade and and and weapon training

1:17:02.240 --> 1:17:04.479
<v Speaker 1>involved in this, and gun training involved in this, and

1:17:05.040 --> 1:17:07.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's a lot of repetition, and it basically is

1:17:07.680 --> 1:17:09.719
<v Speaker 1>how to win a fight in thirty seconds and break

1:17:09.760 --> 1:17:13.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of bones. Right, Well, I mean, and the

1:17:13.439 --> 1:17:17.120
<v Speaker 1>thing about the thing about Trump is that he has

1:17:17.160 --> 1:17:19.320
<v Speaker 1>the ability to win a verbal fight here. You know,

1:17:19.760 --> 1:17:22.600
<v Speaker 1>he knows looking into the future that this is not

1:17:23.000 --> 1:17:25.040
<v Speaker 1>it is not in East West world anymore. We are

1:17:25.080 --> 1:17:28.439
<v Speaker 1>a North South world. We need to be able to

1:17:28.520 --> 1:17:31.479
<v Speaker 1>have advantageous relationships. It is like you were saying, it's

1:17:31.600 --> 1:17:34.240
<v Speaker 1>back from the world to be able to continue to

1:17:34.280 --> 1:17:36.880
<v Speaker 1>pick fights with Russia. We don't want to do that.

1:17:37.240 --> 1:17:39.400
<v Speaker 1>And I just have to say I'm so proud of

1:17:39.479 --> 1:17:41.360
<v Speaker 1>you you. I know you say you're not a journalist,

1:17:41.360 --> 1:17:45.120
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah, but you are a journalist of the

1:17:45.240 --> 1:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>A plus category. You went twenty two hours back and

1:17:48.120 --> 1:17:51.840
<v Speaker 1>scores on this plane. You interviewed the source of what

1:17:52.000 --> 1:17:54.240
<v Speaker 1>has been going on for the past three weeks as

1:17:54.280 --> 1:17:56.360
<v Speaker 1>one of the biggest media farcities about this whole stupid

1:17:56.400 --> 1:17:59.360
<v Speaker 1>thing with the Russia. You had every question, point blank,

1:18:00.080 --> 1:18:02.840
<v Speaker 1>third completely, and yet people are still trying to pull

1:18:02.880 --> 1:18:06.040
<v Speaker 1>that interview apart. You know that it's it's hilarious to me.

1:18:06.320 --> 1:18:09.640
<v Speaker 1>And then I'm also informing everybody of every government agencies

1:18:09.680 --> 1:18:11.799
<v Speaker 1>but that it has been hacked. And then I'm pointing

1:18:11.800 --> 1:18:14.240
<v Speaker 1>out that in the Podesta case, it's because he felt

1:18:14.280 --> 1:18:16.960
<v Speaker 1>for a stupid fishing scam. It's not because we were

1:18:17.080 --> 1:18:20.280
<v Speaker 1>hacked anyway. And the fact that Wiki Leaks released it

1:18:20.360 --> 1:18:23.519
<v Speaker 1>is there stupid fault. It's not. You know that there's

1:18:23.560 --> 1:18:26.320
<v Speaker 1>some reality here. And some people say, well, Hannity's friends

1:18:26.360 --> 1:18:29.040
<v Speaker 1>with with Putin. I don't trust him as far as

1:18:29.080 --> 1:18:33.599
<v Speaker 1>I can throw. I mean, it's crazy. Alright, Well listen,

1:18:33.680 --> 1:18:36.360
<v Speaker 1>God bless you, k you made my day, and um,

1:18:36.640 --> 1:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I appreciate it. Listen, I want to say

1:18:40.880 --> 1:18:44.840
<v Speaker 1>to all my irredeemable, deplorable friends out here, like Kate

1:18:44.960 --> 1:18:47.559
<v Speaker 1>and Houston, We've got a big fight ahead of us.

1:18:48.320 --> 1:18:53.120
<v Speaker 1>We have a major battle on every front. The Supreme Court,

1:18:53.560 --> 1:19:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the economy, tax cuts, repatriation, repealing, replacing Obamacare, energy independence,

1:19:01.400 --> 1:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I love Ted Cruz's proposal for term limits, great idea, education,

1:19:05.439 --> 1:19:09.040
<v Speaker 1>back to the states, building the wall, vetting refugees. There's

1:19:09.040 --> 1:19:12.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a fight. You can't walk away. Trump won

1:19:12.280 --> 1:19:15.000
<v Speaker 1>the election. Oh okay, everything, He's gonna snap his fingers

1:19:15.040 --> 1:19:16.960
<v Speaker 1>and it's gonna be fixed. No, every one of these

1:19:17.400 --> 1:19:20.280
<v Speaker 1>issues will be a major fight. And your help and

1:19:20.320 --> 1:19:22.439
<v Speaker 1>your support and the pressure you're gonna put on your

1:19:22.439 --> 1:19:27.800
<v Speaker 1>congressmen and women and women and senators are gonna be crucial. Alright,

1:19:27.880 --> 1:19:30.880
<v Speaker 1>my good friend, to Varus in Greenville, North Carolina, what

1:19:30.960 --> 1:19:32.880
<v Speaker 1>are you whining about today? Let me get my point

1:19:32.960 --> 1:19:36.439
<v Speaker 1>shine about you wicky leaking all over yourself in this interview.

1:19:37.720 --> 1:19:39.680
<v Speaker 1>Did you think of that all of yourself? That's sort

1:19:39.680 --> 1:19:41.240
<v Speaker 1>of like the best line Trump had in one of

1:19:41.240 --> 1:19:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the debates is when he goes, you're gonna use honest.

1:19:46.600 --> 1:19:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not wiki leaking. I'm not wiki leaking. Over anything.

1:19:49.960 --> 1:19:52.519
<v Speaker 1>All I did was to an interview. I did an interview.

1:19:53.479 --> 1:19:56.559
<v Speaker 1>What you literally, you apologize to a criminal? I didn't

1:19:56.560 --> 1:19:59.800
<v Speaker 1>apologize to anybody. I asked him questions. Did you said,

1:20:00.040 --> 1:20:03.560
<v Speaker 1>I apologize to you about you? No? No, let me

1:20:03.640 --> 1:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>tell you because I believe he's done a good service

1:20:06.160 --> 1:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>for this country. And let me, excuse me, excuse me,

1:20:10.880 --> 1:20:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Wait a minute, listen, I know more about Wiki leaks

1:20:13.560 --> 1:20:16.560
<v Speaker 1>than you do. But the fact that he exposes America's

1:20:16.560 --> 1:20:19.439
<v Speaker 1>cybersecurity weaknesses, if you look at it the right way,

1:20:19.960 --> 1:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>it's a favor. Now we can fix it. Now we

1:20:22.360 --> 1:20:26.280
<v Speaker 1>can be CyberSecure. Number two. He also exposed the level

1:20:26.360 --> 1:20:29.400
<v Speaker 1>of corruption. They're not even liberal to Varus in Greenville,

1:20:29.479 --> 1:20:33.280
<v Speaker 1>North Carolina. That's that's racing around the country and his

1:20:33.760 --> 1:20:37.280
<v Speaker 1>eighteen wheeler day in and day out. Uh, even you

1:20:37.439 --> 1:20:40.040
<v Speaker 1>should be glad that we found out how corrupt John

1:20:40.080 --> 1:20:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Podesta is. And nobody, nobody hacked into John Podesta. He

1:20:44.800 --> 1:20:47.040
<v Speaker 1>gave it up himself through a fishing scam because he's

1:20:47.040 --> 1:20:51.120
<v Speaker 1>an idiot. Okay, Sean, was he did? Did did uh?

1:20:51.320 --> 1:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Julian Assaze crack into the Pentagon? Or defense? Was he

1:20:55.000 --> 1:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>was he given access when he did that when he

1:20:57.080 --> 1:20:59.599
<v Speaker 1>was sixteen years old. No, I'm saying, if a sixteen

1:20:59.680 --> 1:21:03.639
<v Speaker 1>year old listen, listen, listen, that's against the law. Yeah,

1:21:03.760 --> 1:21:06.280
<v Speaker 1>but that doesn't. But but you're missing you're missing my

1:21:06.400 --> 1:21:10.040
<v Speaker 1>bigger broader point here. Look, I don't trust criminals. Okay,

1:21:10.040 --> 1:21:12.240
<v Speaker 1>you need to You need to follow the bouncing ball here.

1:21:12.320 --> 1:21:15.160
<v Speaker 1>If the Department of Defense, the White House, Department of State,

1:21:15.640 --> 1:21:18.479
<v Speaker 1>the Department of Office of Personnel, China hack twenty three

1:21:18.520 --> 1:21:21.519
<v Speaker 1>million people there, and all of this happened since two

1:21:21.600 --> 1:21:24.760
<v Speaker 1>thousand and nine, and and nobody in Washington fixes it,

1:21:25.439 --> 1:21:28.000
<v Speaker 1>then at what point does it become our fault for

1:21:28.120 --> 1:21:33.120
<v Speaker 1>being stupid? Government was established? Okay, so then so then stopped.

1:21:33.680 --> 1:21:35.639
<v Speaker 1>So then at some point you've got to say, we've

1:21:35.720 --> 1:21:39.200
<v Speaker 1>known all these hacking incidents occurred, they didn't fix it,

1:21:39.760 --> 1:21:42.400
<v Speaker 1>and now they're only concerned is to use as one

1:21:42.479 --> 1:21:46.719
<v Speaker 1>incident where John Podesta is an idiot to de legitimize Trump.

1:21:47.120 --> 1:21:51.040
<v Speaker 1>If they really cared about hacking, they would have since

1:21:51.400 --> 1:21:55.160
<v Speaker 1>ten years ago, they would have secured, they would have secured,

1:21:55.560 --> 1:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>they would have secured our emails and secured our topsy

1:22:00.040 --> 1:22:03.639
<v Speaker 1>gret documents. They didn't do a thing, and the only

1:22:03.760 --> 1:22:08.759
<v Speaker 1>reason you're hearing about it now is for pure political purposes. Checkmate, checkmate,

1:22:08.800 --> 1:22:12.000
<v Speaker 1>don't get checkmate, don't get mad at me because I'm

1:22:12.040 --> 1:22:16.040
<v Speaker 1>not waking leaking on myself like you, uh the right.

1:22:17.880 --> 1:22:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you questions? Why send you to college?

1:22:20.000 --> 1:22:21.519
<v Speaker 1>And this is the things I get. Didn't I send

<v Speaker 1>better life. Why so you can call in and attack me. No,

<v Speaker 1>how are you. My name's Justin. I'm just in time

1:23:18.080 --> 1:23:20.960
<v Speaker 1>to save your life and show you the romance you've

1:23:20.960 --> 1:23:23.640
<v Speaker 1>been dreaming of. True or false? You do that, don't you?

1:23:25.040 --> 1:23:30.280
<v Speaker 1>I have never done that. That would be cheesy, except

1:23:30.479 --> 1:23:33.360
<v Speaker 1>when I had seen you fled up to the bar

1:23:33.560 --> 1:23:41.240
<v Speaker 1>and go I'm gonna hanitize my baby. Happy New Year,

1:23:41.400 --> 1:23:43.680
<v Speaker 1>halfy new year, Happy new Year? Man, what's going on?

1:23:44.080 --> 1:23:47.280
<v Speaker 1>But but Sean, I gotta tell you what's up. There

1:23:47.439 --> 1:23:50.040
<v Speaker 1>is a situation. The interview that you did with the

1:23:50.240 --> 1:23:53.000
<v Speaker 1>with the Farge absolutely fantastic. But let me tell you

1:23:53.080 --> 1:23:56.960
<v Speaker 1>about I heard that Joe Scarborough had made some comments

1:23:57.040 --> 1:24:00.600
<v Speaker 1>about you and this interview and this supposed to be

1:24:00.760 --> 1:24:04.120
<v Speaker 1>some special love affair that you've got going on. Let

1:24:04.200 --> 1:24:10.240
<v Speaker 1>me tell you Joe Scarborough does not maintain strict conservative principles.

1:24:10.360 --> 1:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>He sings as though he is just what she was.

1:24:13.320 --> 1:24:16.480
<v Speaker 1>She's going back and forth, and I really don't appreciate

1:24:17.080 --> 1:24:20.400
<v Speaker 1>him not being true. He should say what he means,

1:24:21.000 --> 1:24:23.479
<v Speaker 1>means what he says. But here is the part that's

1:24:23.520 --> 1:24:27.160
<v Speaker 1>really important. If he was all that concerned or Jenny

1:24:27.360 --> 1:24:32.240
<v Speaker 1>of the of the network, why didn't they for food

1:24:32.800 --> 1:24:36.760
<v Speaker 1>an interview with this man they have concerns with? Does

1:24:36.800 --> 1:24:39.439
<v Speaker 1>that make sense for you? Listen, I think this is

1:24:39.600 --> 1:24:45.040
<v Speaker 1>repulsive Joe. First, nobody watches the show. His radio show flopped,

1:24:45.720 --> 1:24:48.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, repulsive Joe flips and flops and flowers. He

1:24:49.120 --> 1:24:51.760
<v Speaker 1>is the poster child of what it is to be

1:24:52.160 --> 1:24:56.599
<v Speaker 1>an establishment person. He can't be Look, if he's proud

1:24:57.000 --> 1:24:59.679
<v Speaker 1>to work at MSNBC, then why is he always begging

1:24:59.760 --> 1:25:04.120
<v Speaker 1>for jobs elsewhere? And Joe, but my goodness, you didn't

1:25:04.120 --> 1:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>just drop drop some information? Oh yeah, listen, I dropped Listen,

1:25:08.840 --> 1:25:11.040
<v Speaker 1>I dropped that bomb on Twitter. And by the way,

1:25:11.439 --> 1:25:15.519
<v Speaker 1>by the way, I have at least ten more bombs

1:25:15.600 --> 1:25:18.720
<v Speaker 1>in my verbal bombs. Of course, I'm talking about ten

1:25:18.840 --> 1:25:23.040
<v Speaker 1>more verbal Now, let's just say, um attacks that I

1:25:23.160 --> 1:25:25.200
<v Speaker 1>have ready for Joe if he wants to keep this going.

1:25:25.680 --> 1:25:27.639
<v Speaker 1>If Joe wants to keep this going, if he wants

1:25:27.680 --> 1:25:29.680
<v Speaker 1>to go there, I'll go there. Well, you know what

1:25:29.800 --> 1:25:31.880
<v Speaker 1>what I'd like for you to do. Now, I'm gonna

1:25:31.960 --> 1:25:34.560
<v Speaker 1>tell you this is very important. Now I want you

1:25:34.800 --> 1:25:37.280
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna hold your feet to the fire, Yes, sir,

1:25:37.560 --> 1:25:41.880
<v Speaker 1>if if Trump messes up, and if he doesn't do

1:25:42.000 --> 1:25:44.600
<v Speaker 1>what he says, if he flip flops it, if he

1:25:44.720 --> 1:25:47.800
<v Speaker 1>does something, I am gonna call you out. If you

1:25:48.080 --> 1:25:51.200
<v Speaker 1>don't bust him, let me go. This is an opportunity

1:25:51.320 --> 1:25:54.439
<v Speaker 1>for him to do what he says, and so if not,

1:25:55.240 --> 1:25:57.320
<v Speaker 1>he would have just simply been a con man the

1:25:57.400 --> 1:25:59.880
<v Speaker 1>way all the people ever choosed him would be it. Listen,

1:26:00.400 --> 1:26:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Mike Penn said the other day before the Republican Caucus,

1:26:03.200 --> 1:26:05.599
<v Speaker 1>this is a time for promise keeping. Here are Donald

1:26:05.640 --> 1:26:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Trump's promises that I want kept. I want originalists on

1:26:08.800 --> 1:26:12.360
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court. I want refugees vetted. I want the

1:26:12.439 --> 1:26:14.760
<v Speaker 1>wall built. And by the way, he did say to

1:26:14.840 --> 1:26:16.479
<v Speaker 1>me that now Mexico is not going to give me

1:26:16.520 --> 1:26:19.160
<v Speaker 1>a check Mexico, but there will be a price for

1:26:19.240 --> 1:26:21.120
<v Speaker 1>them to pay, so I'm not worried about that. I

1:26:21.240 --> 1:26:23.439
<v Speaker 1>do want the corporate rate lowered, like he said. I

1:26:23.520 --> 1:26:27.479
<v Speaker 1>do want the repatriation opportunity given. I do want healthcare

1:26:27.520 --> 1:26:31.439
<v Speaker 1>savings accounts in Obamacare repealed. I want executive orders repealed.

1:26:31.479 --> 1:26:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I want energy independence advanced in the next four years

1:26:34.439 --> 1:26:36.760
<v Speaker 1>that I want education sent back to the States. If

1:26:36.800 --> 1:26:40.040
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't follow through on those promises. I promise you

1:26:40.320 --> 1:26:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I will call him out. You have my word of honor. Okay,

1:26:43.400 --> 1:26:45.679
<v Speaker 1>I love it, I appreciate it, and I'm gonna always

1:26:45.680 --> 1:26:50.400
<v Speaker 1>tell you one more thing I still have and still you.

1:26:51.080 --> 1:26:53.680
<v Speaker 1>The soda stream that you sent me, Oh man, that

1:26:53.800 --> 1:26:56.320
<v Speaker 1>goes back a ways. It's good, isn't it. I loved it.

1:26:57.040 --> 1:26:59.960
<v Speaker 1>It absolutely is that. You know what I'm gonna say,

1:27:00.080 --> 1:27:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, God, bless you. Getting ready. I'm just in

1:27:04.280 --> 1:27:06.840
<v Speaker 1>time to change your world. That would be a good

1:27:06.880 --> 1:27:09.160
<v Speaker 1>line at the Bar Jason. He used that at Coyote

1:27:09.280 --> 1:27:09.479
<v Speaker 1>Ugly
