We 2 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 1: have a fantastic show for you today with interviews that 3 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 1: we had at America Fest that we just honestly, frankly 4 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: haven't had time to air here on this show. So 5 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: this evening, i'd like to bring you a wonderful conversation 6 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: I had with doctor Ben Carson, a man who doesn't 7 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: need an introduction. You know who doctor Ben Carson is, 8 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: you love him, fantastically smart. But then after that got 9 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 1: in wonderful interview with David Tangipa, who is from California, 10 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: one of the rising stars in conservatism in the deep blue, 11 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: godforsaken hell whole of a state. Those interviews start right now. Okay, 12 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: doctor Ben Carson, thank you so much for joining. Really 13 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 1: appreciate you taking the time. Yeah, it's you. Your speech 14 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: at Charlie's funeral or Charlie's memorial service I thought was 15 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: one of the better ones. How did you kind of 16 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: prepare for that? And what was it that you were 17 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,199 Speaker 1: trying to communicate to large of an audience one hundred 18 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: thousand people, there are millions watching online. 19 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 2: With only five minutes. 20 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: Really, and that's that's a challenging and of itself. 21 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I do what I always do. I asked 22 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 2: the Lord to speak to me, and he always does. 23 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 2: So you know, when I speak here today, I have 24 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 2: a broad outline of what I want to say, but 25 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 2: it frequently turns out to be something different. 26 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: Really, so you just kind of not wing it. You 27 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: have an outline, but it just it flows. 28 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: You know. The Lord strikes me in different ways, depending 29 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 2: on the atmosphere, depending on the audience. And but you know, 30 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 2: I wanted people to really think about what good could 31 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: come out of what happened to Charlie. Yeah, and interestingly enough, 32 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 2: there's a revival, but that's been going on for the 33 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 2: last few years, but I think it really caught fire 34 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 2: after what happened to Charlie. 35 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: Now one of the obviously, yeah, the things that everybody notices, 36 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: the church parking lot seemed full. People were going back 37 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: to church. Now, how do we keep that? In your opinion, like, 38 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: how does it because you know, I'm not going to 39 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: call it a fad, because it's not a fad, but 40 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 1: it's something that you know, crescendos and then inevitably it 41 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: starts to fade unless we do something. What do you 42 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: think that is that we can do to kind of 43 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: maintain that momentum. 44 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: I think we have to do what Charlie was doing. 45 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 2: Don't stand on the side line, get out in the 46 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: middle of the stage and take the microphone and talk, 47 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: because that's what happened. You know over the last few decades. 48 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: The leftists, the Marxists, they are not shot. They will 49 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: always grab the microphone and go to the middle of 50 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 2: the stage and shout it from the mountaintops while we 51 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 2: just sit around and kind of complain about that. We 52 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 2: have to be as active as they are because what 53 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 2: they're trying to do is indoctrinate our people, particularly our 54 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 2: young people. And you know, if you read the Marxist literature, 55 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 2: they're not shy about what they're trying to do. 56 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: They say it explicitly exactly, we're trying to dissolve the 57 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: nuclear family, and we want to seize the means of 58 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: production exactly. And then we say, hey, they want to 59 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: dissolve the nuclear family. It sees the means of production. 60 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: It was interesting when Black Like Matter first, you know, 61 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 2: became prominent. They had all of that on their website. 62 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: People started seeing it, so they erased it all but 63 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 2: it's pretty amazing. And you know what Charlie did which 64 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 2: was so important is he made people think. He would say, well, 65 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: why do you believe that? And what is the debates 66 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: of your belief systems? And people will find that they 67 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 2: really couldn't answer that question and maybe begin to reassess 68 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 2: the situation. And our young people who've grown up in 69 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: the midst of all this democratic socialism quote, they're not 70 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: seeing good things for their future and a lot of 71 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: them are starting to ask questions, are we really going 72 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: in the right direction? And we see particularly a lot 73 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 2: of the young men turning back to faith again, and 74 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 2: I think the women will come along to right. We 75 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: have to recognize that they have a difficult situation. Women 76 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: do because now it's you know, family versus career, and 77 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: which one do I choose and which one do I 78 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 2: give primacy to. I think that will become less of 79 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: a problem with virtual things happening. You'll be able to 80 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: go to your virtual ten o'clock meeting with all your 81 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: colleagues and then turn around and change the babies diapering. 82 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean to kind of tug on that threat. 83 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: Yet the trajectory of kind of the the basis of 84 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: women likelihood, like the industrial revolution kind of took the 85 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 1: economic power out of the household, which it really was, like, 86 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: you know, when the Bible says the women are the 87 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 1: CEO is effectively of the household, there's a lot of 88 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: actual work to be done. 89 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 3: That was a full time job, absolutely, and it kind 90 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 3: of seems like, you know, obviously when things got more 91 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: efficient to manufacture clothes for example, manufacture food, some of 92 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 3: that economic power got taken away. 93 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: And so you kind of think like in a digital world, 94 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: women can maybe reclaim some of that. 95 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 2: And they will be able to Men have to be 96 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 2: understand that most men who go out and work all 97 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: day long come back home. If you take them and say, 98 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: tell you what, you stay home and do that, they'll 99 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: be back at work. And that's good. 100 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:14,839 Speaker 1: It's goods. 101 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 2: No, I was just gonna say, my wife, uh, you 102 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 2: know how, she has a degree from Yale, she has 103 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,279 Speaker 2: a degree from Johns Hopkins. She's very talented, very smart, 104 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: but she felt it was much more important, uh, when 105 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 2: the boys were growing up, because she'd be there for them. 106 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: And then after they were all grown and gone, and 107 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: she said, plenty of time to do other stuff. And 108 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 2: she did stuff before that, and even while they were 109 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: growing up, while they would be a school, you know, 110 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 2: she was putting together programs for our scholarships and all 111 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: these things. So there's plenty to do. 112 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: There's plenty to do all the time. Yeah, you know, 113 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: my wife is similar. She's got it. She's a therapist 114 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: by trade, but is at home raising her kids. And 115 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: that that's what I wanted. That's great because you can 116 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: replace a therapist. You can't replace their mom no way 117 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: that she sees it. 118 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: Nothing is like the mom and the family. And you know, 119 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 2: our families are not developing like they used to. People 120 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 2: are not getting married or they're getting married very late, 121 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: which has some consequences too, because children who are born 122 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 2: to older parents tend to have more physical problems. And 123 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 2: there's been some recent studies that show particularly older men 124 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 2: who follow their children see a larger incidence of their 125 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: children of mental type flashes. 126 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: Now, I guess from a medical standpoint, but also from 127 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 1: like a I don't know, energy standpoint. Charlieoways to say, 128 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: have kids sooner than you think you should have, more 129 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: than you can afford. Absolutely, So that's kind of that's 130 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: also probably seems like a pretty tangible. You know the 131 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: reason why you should do that? Speaking of sitting on 132 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: a porch, and I mean this is a complimentary way. 133 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: Why are you doing this? You could be on a 134 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 1: beach somewhere kicking up your feet, but you've decided to 135 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: take your time to come here do this. You've got 136 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: a great organization teaching kids about freedom and civics and 137 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. 138 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: Why because because we're in a battle, a cultural aurar, 139 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: and if we don't win, we all lose. So the 140 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,359 Speaker 2: way I kind of look at it against a backdrop 141 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: of eternity, which is very important to me. The amount 142 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 2: of time that we spend here is a flash in 143 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: the pan, and we be looking at what is God's will? 144 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 2: And why has he given us certain talents? And why 145 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: has he put us in certain positions? And we got 146 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 2: the rest of eternity to relax and enjoy life. We 147 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 2: got things to do. 148 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: You got things to do? Now? Does everybody in your 149 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: life agree with that? Is that? Or or are there 150 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: some people you know, said, hey, you got to slow down. 151 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: You're well. 152 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 2: I always hear people saying that. That's a constant thing. 153 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 2: But as long as the Lord gives me the ability 154 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 2: to get out there and do things, you know it's 155 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 2: important to do because I feel so fortunate to have 156 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,319 Speaker 2: been born in this country and to have the opportunities 157 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 2: that I had, you know, to be able to see 158 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: the country from from the viewpoint of someone who's growing 159 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: up in dire property to the viewpoint of someone who 160 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: is very well off and can do what they want 161 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 2: to do, and that there are not a lot of 162 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: places in the world like that. Yeah. 163 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, with this the modern political culture, we see a 164 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 1: bunch of people on the media, in the media saying, well, 165 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, Republicans control the House and the Senate, they 166 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 1: can just do anything they want. I mean, really, what 167 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: that is is a diagnosis of Okay, you don't understand civics. 168 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: We don't have a supermajority in either House or well, 169 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 1: I mean the Senate specifically, so we need you know, 170 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: democrat buying. How is that sort of thing kind of 171 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: guided your pathway in terms of being able to educate 172 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: kids on fundamentally how civics works and like how the 173 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: government works and how you actually get things done. So 174 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, when those arguments are made, it doesn't land 175 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: at all because they're like, well, no, you need sixty 176 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: votes in the Senate, we don't have that, So you 177 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: can't blame one side of the other, even if it's 178 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 1: the other side. It's an understanding of how it works. 179 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 2: People come to Washington or to their state capitol as 180 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 2: representatives or their staff, they don't know anything, and it's 181 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 2: like trying to drink from a fire hydrant, and it 182 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 2: takes them a solid year to really get to understand 183 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 2: how things work. In the cases of Congress, that's half 184 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 2: your time right there, just learning what's going on. So 185 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 2: that's why we have the Executive Branch for America on 186 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 2: the program with the American Cornerstone, and it tells you 187 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: how the government works, and it has courses and you 188 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: can pass those courses and you can actually be certified, 189 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: and it's free of charge, by the way, and we 190 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 2: want people to go there and be ready to go 191 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 2: on day one. You know, you'd probably notice with the 192 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 2: second Trump administration how fast they took off. That was 193 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 2: because during that four years off figuring out how things work, 194 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 2: and they were ready to go guns blazing. 195 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 196 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 2: And it makes a difference to prepare people for what 197 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: they're going to be dealing with and with Executive Branch 198 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: of America. We have many luminaries government in THEIRS who 199 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 2: tell you from their point of view of what's going 200 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: on and how you can be helpful. 201 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: That's awesome. This is kind of not related to any 202 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: of this, but I'm actually curious about this is a 203 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 1: discussion I've been having with a bunch of people. Do 204 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: you think Jesus had a sense of humor? 205 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: I know, Jesus. I mean, all that to do is 206 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 2: look at my own life. I mean, here, I was 207 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: this angry teenager trying to stab people with knives, and 208 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 2: he said, Okay, Benjamin, you like knives, I'm going to 209 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: take that knife and I'm going to replace it with 210 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 2: a skip on. You can say lives. And then you know, 211 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 2: after I most killed somebody with a knife. 212 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: Oh, I would love to hear that story. I was. 213 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: I just had such a temper that I didn't think 214 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 2: about what I was doing. And somebody make me angry. 215 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: You had a temper, I was? You were the most 216 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: I was, Patholosopher. 217 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 2: Really, it shows you the look on your face. That's incredible. 218 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: I see that all the time, because when Jesus changes you, 219 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 2: he doesn't do a paint job. He changes you from 220 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 2: the inside, and uh, so I had tried to stab someone, 221 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 2: and I locked myself in the bathroom. I tried to contemplate, 222 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 2: because I had changed from a horrible student to a 223 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: straight a student by that time. I said, but you 224 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: never realize your dream of becoming a doctor with a 225 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: temper like that. Your choices will be a reform school 226 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 2: or the grave. And I didn't like any of those choices. 227 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 2: So there was a Bible, and I picked it up 228 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: and opened it to the Book of Proverbs, which was 229 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: written by Solomon, the wise man who ever lived, and 230 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: there were all these verses about anger and fools, and 231 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: they all seemed like they were written about me. And 232 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: I just poured my heart out to the Lord, and 233 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 2: I said, you know, I'll never make it unless you 234 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 2: change me. And it was during that time that I 235 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 2: came to recognize the reason that I was so angry 236 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 2: just because I was selfish. It was always about me, 237 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 2: and Mayan I somebody did this to me. Somebody took 238 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: my thing. I wanted this, And I said, if you 239 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: learned to step outside the center of the circle and 240 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 2: not let it be about you, let it be about 241 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 2: somebody else, it'll take care of the problem, and it did. 242 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: That was the last day I had an angry outburst. 243 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: That's completely But here's what's interesting about that and why 244 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: I said God had the sense of human The book 245 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 2: I read the Book of Proverbs. From the Book of 246 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: Proverbs every day, I start every day every day since 247 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 2: that time, written by Solomon. My middle name is Solomon. 248 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 2: He knew I was going to have that affinity. And 249 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 2: when Solomon became the king, what was the first thing 250 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 2: that he did that brought him great acclaim? Two women 251 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 2: claim to be the mother of the same baby. And 252 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 2: what did he say? Divide and a half? Well, when 253 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 2: did I become very famous when I divided babies? He's 254 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: got a sense of humor. 255 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: I can't. You're one of the most calm collected individuals 256 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: I think in this you know media space, and I 257 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: think you're you're famous for that, like you know when 258 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: you know some personalities in this throw, but you know 259 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: familiar with them too. We're kind of up out there. 260 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: You're the calm, reasoned voice of reason in that And 261 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: I cannot picture you with a temper. Did that never 262 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: translate to your kids? Did you ever have a temper 263 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: when you're raising your kids? 264 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: Never, It's very difficult to make me angry. There's probably 265 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 2: only one person who can make me angry. That's my wife, 266 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 2: the person you love the most exactly. 267 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: You can maybe make you a little bit angry, but 268 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: not even she would have a tough time. That is 269 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: an increase. I feel like that is a testament too, 270 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: to just the power of change that Christ can have 271 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: in your life. 272 00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 2: That's what he can do. Man, He can do that 273 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 2: for anybody, regardless of what their problem is. And that's 274 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: something we need to talk about more. And I'm glad 275 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 2: Charlie talked about it, and I'd like to see more 276 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 2: of a be bold about our faith because we didn't 277 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 2: from a Bradcag bunch of Militiaman to the Pinnaclela. 278 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: Royal's by chance. 279 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was because of what we believed. 280 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: For doctor Ben Carson.

But it's actually 288 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: not because I also I live in California as you do. 289 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,239 Speaker 1: You it's not really that bad in terms of like 290 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: the geography, the weather, all this sort of stuff.

What the hell is 292 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 1: going on. 293 00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 4: It's the greatest place in the world. It is the 294 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 4: great this place in the world. 295 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: It is. If anybody's been. 296 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 4: To New Court, Corona del Mar, they would never want 297 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 4: to leave, you know. And the fact that we have 298 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 4: a government right now that is driving so many people 299 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 4: out of this state that I mean, we have the 300 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:21,760 Speaker 4: highest mountains, we've got the. 301 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 1: Lowest valleys, we've got all the beaches. 302 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 4: We grow all the food, we have, all of the 303 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 4: natural resources here, and it's all the illegals and it's 304 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 4: too hard to live in the fifth largest economy in 305 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 4: the world. 306 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: And that's because of the people who leave this. 307 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 4: State right now, which is what gives me hope though, 308 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 4: because that's a people and a policy issue, which means 309 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 4: both can be solved fairly quickly. 310 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: Just to people of California. 311 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 4: Need to wake up and actually realize it's not Donald Trump, 312 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 4: it's Gavin Newsome, that's actually destroying our lives. 313 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,639 Speaker 1: I'm going to I feel like in order to like 314 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: you should you should lower the microphone a little bit. 315 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: It's going to be in your face if you ever 316 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: want to clip that. Yeah, got it. There you go. 317 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 1: It looks better. So okay, play with me here. You know, 318 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: I recognize this is an improbable scenario. However, there's a 319 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: poll that came out yesterday with Sheriff Bianco, Steve Hilton 320 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: and then all of the other devs. Yeah, at the 321 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: top and California if people don't know, is a top 322 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 1: two system. It didn't used to be. It used to be, 323 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, Republican and Democrat. Whoever wins from their party 324 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:25,879 Speaker 1: goes on, you know, through the primary. But at the 325 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: top two, do you think there is a chance that 326 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 1: some of your lower level Libs don't bow out? And 327 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: one we get a Republican in there, but two it 328 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: could possibly be two of them. 329 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 4: So we've ran scenarios and right now, seven out of 330 00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 4: ten times a dem makes it through. That means that's 331 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 4: thirty there's a thirty percent chance that two Republicans can 332 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 4: And we're hearing some rumblings right now that Rob Bonta 333 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 4: is also going to get to jump in. So if 334 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: we have if we have really prominent Democrats and then 335 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 4: all those lower Dems, I guess, and we get somebody 336 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 4: who's like a far left socialist that kind of pulls 337 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 4: some of that socialist vote as well away from the 338 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 4: moderate ish. None of them are moderate moderate Ish Democrats. 339 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 4: You know, you get Eric Swallwell, you get Katie Katie 340 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 4: fang Thing, you get Katie Porter, you get Rob bonte 341 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 4: Xarivier Bisera, Anthony Villa, Nueya Newelauva, and then we need 342 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 4: in my opinion, I think we should have two Republicans 343 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 4: really pull out that are kind of going to pull 344 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 4: about two to three four percent away and then just 345 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 4: leave Chad and Steve. Chad and Steve right now are 346 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 4: the clear front runners. They're both pulling above ten percent. 347 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 4: If it's me, by about the time we get to 348 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 4: the first week of March, if those other those. 349 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 1: Other Republicans aren't pulling above. 350 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 4: Five percent, they really need to pull out, because then 351 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 4: we can actually have that scenario. 352 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: What kind of power does the state party have to 353 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: do that leveragewise? Obviously you can ask nicely, but are 354 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: Is there any funding mechanism that can allow that to 355 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: And I realize I might be putting you in a 356 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: tough spot answering that question, but yeah, other than asking nicely, 357 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: is there any sort of can we get can we 358 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: convince that this is the better way forward? 359 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 4: You know, people like to operate with a carrot more 360 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 4: than a stick, and so if there's a better plan 361 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 4: that we put in front of them where it's like, hey, 362 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 4: we're seeing you at five percent, we have an open 363 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 4: position at the lieutenant governorship, can you run for that? 364 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,199 Speaker 1: Hey, we see you at four percent? 365 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 4: You also fit the bill for I don't know, auditor controller. 366 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 4: You know, these are really important positions as well that 367 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 4: we can get other people.

Well, it's what I think. 500 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 4: Makes him the scariest is he's a conservative face business 501 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 4: owner with the far left agenda. 502 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and why how does that happen? Oh? 503 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 4: I don't think he actually leaves in it at all. 504 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 4: I think he understands where he should concentrate power. Yeah, 505 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 4: I mean think about it like this. His family, his 506 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 4: entire political career, all of it is all built off the. 507 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: Back of oil. No, no, no, no, no. He was 508 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: growing up on wonderbread in the ghetto.

Most of Saudi Arabian oil 554 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 4: pieces are from the Getty family. We've heard of Getty 555 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 4: images too, the Getty Museum all the same family. And 556 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 4: Pat Brown was a governor of California. William Newsom was 557 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 4: a judge. Pat Brown changed executive law on how trust 558 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 4: are executed. Jp Geedty did not get along with his family, 559 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 4: hated his kids. One of his grandkids was like held 560 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 4: for ransom it in Italy, and he wouldn't send them 561 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 4: money until they sent him like an ear from his grandson. 562 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: And he just thought his whole family was going to 563 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: steal what Yes, okay, I don't want to get off 564 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: on that tangent. Okay, yeah, So so. 565 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 4: They change executive law, Pat Brown changes it. William Newsom 566 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 4: then reassigns the trust to. 567 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: Billy Getty. 568 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 4: Billy is Gavin Newsom's business partner. Then William Newsom leaves 569 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 4: the judge ship and then becomes the. 570 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: Executor of the trust. That's how he got into the executorship. Yes, oh, 571 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: I thought they were like family friends in that town. 572 00:31:30,080 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 2: Did know? 573 00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 4: They took the trust away from the other person, reassigned 574 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 4: it to a different trustee. 575 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to like. So a trust is this 576 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: is where all of your assets. This is a one 577 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 1: point billion dollar family trust account effectively. I mean obviously 578 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: there's obviously assets in that, but that's just in case 579 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 1: people it's. 580 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 4: A billion dollar account, and he changes who becomes the executor. 581 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 4: Then that executor assigns William Newsom as the trustee or 582 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 4: as the as the attorney for that. 583 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: To delegate all of it. 584 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 4: Billy Getty is Gavin Newsom's business partner in all of 585 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 4: the plump Jack, So all of the funding that started 586 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 4: the plump Jack initiatives. 587 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: The Jackie the Pumpjack is Gavin Newsom's wine Estates Holdings Company. Exactly. 588 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 4: All of it is backfilled from the Getty family trust 589 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 4: and all built on big oil after Pat Brown and 590 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 4: William Newsom stole the trust away from the Getty family. 591 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: Wow, it's all in Colter. So that that's how that happened. 592 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 1: I just kind of assumed, Okay, so it was a 593 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: family attorney, and therefore he's the guy we trust with. 594 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 4: There's an article it's specifically called keeping It All in 595 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 4: the Family by cow Matters. If anybody looks it up, 596 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 4: it gives you a family tree, and in the family 597 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 4: tree it says like artificially adopted by the Gettys is 598 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 4: Governor Newsom. 599 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 2: Wow. 600 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fascinating, insane. I know, a mob it is 601 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: the mob Okay, So so then you got the question 602 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: of so, you know, the the obvious kind of trope 603 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: against anybody running for higher political office is well, it's 604 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: just to enrich themselves, right. The Trump has been accused 605 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: of that a lot. And that's you know, just what 606 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: happened to president that has lost net worth, right, not 607 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden though he was doing it for the right reasons, 608 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: and his son happened to end up on all these courts. Anyways, 609 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: what then is Gavin's motivation because he's got all the 610 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: money in the world. What is it? Just a power 611 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 1: narcissist ego thing? That what it is? 612 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 4: Well, again, I think he just comes from that type 613 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 4: of family tree. I mean Nancy Pelosi's family. They've been 614 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,239 Speaker 4: in politics the whole time. Yeah, you know, the the 615 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 4: Brown family that that is. I mean, it's it's kind 616 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,880 Speaker 4: of how the mob is operated. Yeah, and he's the 617 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 4: he's the prodigal son. Yeah, he is the prodigal son 618 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 4: of none of them. I mean Nancy made it all 619 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 4: the way to speak of the House. Oh yeah, she 620 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 4: couldn't make it depress it also, and also too, I 621 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 4: think Nancy smart, like I wish conservatives had a Nancy 622 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:07,960 Speaker 4: Pelosi in order to i mean, whip her party in shape. 623 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: Like they She got people behind the build that nobody 624 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: read and ruined everybody's lives with the affordable care. We've 625 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: got a passage, so we could find out what's in it. Right, 626 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: we don't have that conservative well up until this point. 627 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 1: Right now. I mean, it's Trump, but he's the president. 628 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: He's not in Congress, and so it's difficult to kind 629 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 1: of do that sort of stuff. But like I think 630 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: people and Nancy Posy's evil. Yeah, okay, cool, I agree 631 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: with that, But she's not dumb. No, do you think 632 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: Gavin's dumb? Absolutely not. 633 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 4: Now I think there's I think actually within that apparatus, 634 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 4: the extremely intelligent they. But but it's fundamentally different between 635 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 4: our ideologies as well. Yeah, you know, And this is 636 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,000 Speaker 4: why I believe I don't think Gavin's a real liberal. 637 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a democrat. I think he's a. 638 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,840 Speaker 4: Power hungry individual who understands how to move the vessel 639 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 4: to be in charge. Well, think about it, why would 640 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 4: you want to be on the party side Conservatives and 641 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 4: Republicans that our individual foundations are built on individualism and independence, 642 00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 4: That is extremely hard to get everybody on the same 643 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 4: page if we're all a band of individuals. That's why 644 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 4: Ronald Reagan is so amazing, because he can get a 645 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 4: bunch of individuals to work together for an end goal. 646 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 4: The opposite side of the aisle, liberals they work in collectivism. 647 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 4: They believe in collectivism, so all of their ideology is 648 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 4: marching together. And if individuals and Republicans see government as 649 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 4: a problem, we don't want to participate. 650 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: We hate it from the outside. 651 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:36,800 Speaker 4: And if on the opposite end, liberals look at government 652 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 4: as the solution, then they all want to participate and 653 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 4: then build that. So it's very easy to get a 654 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 4: bunch of lemmings to jump off the cliff. It is 655 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 4: very hard to be a shepherd of a bunch of 656 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 4: birds that are all flying in different directions. 657 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 1: And we've got an analogy and we have with that. Is 658 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 1: that a David original? I do talk about that, Yes, okay, 659 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 1: so sorry, I don't want to cut you off. Yeah, 660 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 1: but that's just the way that we operate. 661 00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:02,919 Speaker 4: So it's it's within our individual foundations, and it's why 662 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,879 Speaker 4: I believe Governor News some Nancy Pelosi and a lot 663 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 4: of these groups operate on that side of the aisle, 664 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 4: because it's a lot easier to control. To say, oh, 665 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 4: it's so much easier, which is unfortunate. 666 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 1: Well, it's amazing conservatives win anything, honestly, given the odds 667 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 1: that are stacked against us, with the university systems, the media, 668 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: the entertainment industry, everything, and yet somehow we still win somehow. 669 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: And I'm curious if you think we're at like kind 670 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 1: of a tipping point in California where it's like, all right, 671 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,160 Speaker 1: this this has gone too far, too much. Maybe it 672 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: expresses itself in the governor's race. Maybe it's you know, 673 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: more local Senate Assembly races. Where do you think we're going. Obviously, 674 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 1: I know you're gonna be optimistic, We're gonna win everything, 675 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 1: all right. I'm not gonna be optimistic, not at all. Okay, no, no, no. 676 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 4: I just saw a PPI C poll that showed that 677 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 4: the governor was pulling above fifty percent for the first 678 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 4: time in forever, and the legislature was pulling above fifty 679 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 4: It was like fifty three percent. 680 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, how. 681 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 4: This is a part where again I never look at 682 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 4: the Democrats or the liberals or those in charge. And 683 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,160 Speaker 4: I don't blame them for winning and doing everything they 684 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 4: said they would do. I blame Republicans and conservatives and 685 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 4: those that are the electeds not being able to deliver 686 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 4: a message that's actually digestible that can get people motivated 687 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 4: to be a part of our side. For a long time, 688 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 4: the Republican Party has been the party against I am 689 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 4: against this, I am against that, I am against it. Yea, 690 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 4: we never and nobody wants to be on the side 691 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 4: that's the grumpy old person who hates everything. 692 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,880 Speaker 1: Well, but it's kind of inherent in conservatism, right, Like, 693 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: if you're going to be a progressive, you want things 694 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: to they say progress, I say just change. And if conservative, 695 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: if you're trying to conserve something, you don't want the 696 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: status quot to change because things are pretty good and 697 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: you don't want it to get worse. And so inherently 698 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 1: you can't. You always have to be on defense. Just 699 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: from like an ideological, pragmatic, pragmatist standpoint, yes, but we can't. 700 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 4: Use that to prevent modernization and prevention. And even within conservatism, 701 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 4: you know, we were the home builders, we were the 702 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 4: ones who founded cities. 703 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: We did it the right way. So I mean then 704 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 1: we went from that to do nothing. 705 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 4: But when population growth happens, when innovation happens, and you're 706 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 4: just saying like, ah, no, you can't do that, And 707 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,320 Speaker 4: it's like, okay, well, now we have sewer systems. 708 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: From the nineteen forties. 709 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 4: We have a water system right now that was built 710 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 4: in nineteen twenty two under the State Water Project and 711 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 4: then the Central Valley Water Project that was supposed to 712 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 4: I mean this is it was a bunch of conservatives 713 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 4: in the early nineteen twenties and nineteen forties that said, 714 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 4: we need to build a water system that can sustain 715 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 4: forty million people with only six million people in this state, 716 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 4: and they did it. And now we're at forty million 717 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 4: people and we have liberals in this state trying to 718 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 4: tear down a bunch of dams. 719 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,399 Speaker 1: To restore the Walda Rivers. 720 00:38:52,080 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 4: And everything else with when we don't have enough. So okay, dad, 721 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 4: there's so many different tangents we can go on. 722 00:38:58,320 --> 00:38:59,760 Speaker 1: Are you are you going anywhere? 723 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 2: Time? 724 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 1: So okay, California hasn't built water storage in fifty years? 725 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 1: What the hell? Okay? So from your insight into why 726 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,280 Speaker 1: that is, is it more of like the environmental people 727 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,400 Speaker 1: trying to like stop all of that sort of stuff. 728 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:19,959 Speaker 1: So I people aren't familiar. California constantly is talking about 729 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: we're in a drought, we need to save water. It's 730 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 1: been like that in my entire life. I've never not 731 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: been in a drought. But also policy wise, we haven't 732 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: made any new water storage literally in forty or fifty years. 733 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,240 Speaker 1: So how do you square those two ideas? And also 734 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 1: what is going on there? It is it is an environmentalists? 735 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: Is it money? What? Hell? What's happening? 736 00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 4: So have you watched like the Marvel movies like not 737 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:46,880 Speaker 4: kind of one? 738 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: So do you know? Do you know who Fanos? I'm 739 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: aware of Fanos, and I'm aware of his whole thing. 740 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 4: So so I don't refer to environmentalists as environmentalists anymore. 741 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 1: They're anti human activists. They believe in just they believed 742 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: the Earth is the priority. Earth is all else. 743 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 4: If people die and we lose half the population, it 744 00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 4: actually would be a good thing because then we'd have 745 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:13,879 Speaker 4: abundance through human scarcity. That is Thanos's evil ideology when 746 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 4: he would snap his fingers and eliminate half of the 747 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 4: universe's population because overpopulation was the issue. So the actually 748 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 4: entire premise of all of the Marvel movies under Thanos 749 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 4: being the villain is California Democrats is the California environmentalist. 750 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 4: They have a Thanos ideology. So okay, So with that 751 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 4: in mind, I mean there's the water storage. 752 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: There's also I don't know why. I do know why 753 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: I've been going down the rabbit hole because my repon 754 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: are fortunate. We own our home and it's great. A 755 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: lot of our friends don't. And a lot of our 756 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: friends are conservatives and they are you know, church going Christian. 757 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 1: They live their life in a correct way. They save money, 758 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: they do all the things that you're supposed to do, 759 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: and they still can't afford a home. Oh yeah, that 760 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: concerns me, and it's I often have the ell, you 761 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 1: just got a toadhouse in your area is like one 762 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 1: million dollars. It's a lot of money. 763 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the average for like a fourteen hundred square 764 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 4: foot home in your area is about one point one 765 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 4: to one point four million dollars. 766 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: It's it's absurd trying to figure out why, how did 767 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: that happen in like the seventies, eighties, even early nineties. 768 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,720 Speaker 1: Obviously there's a population boom in California because California is awesome. 769 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: Geographically speaking, you either have two directions to build, either 770 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:35,879 Speaker 1: go up or out. Yep, those are the only two 771 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,520 Speaker 1: things in the cities. Nobody wanted to go up because 772 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 1: you know Nimby's which I'm a Nimbi in terms of 773 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 1: building more things around my area. I totally understand that. 774 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: At the same time, you had the environmentalist saying you 775 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: can't go out either, So like until like the mid 776 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: nineties or something like that, like all of the inland 777 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: empire in southern California was like, no, this is protected 778 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: marshland or whatever it is. And so what it feels 779 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:05,319 Speaker 1: like maybe like eighties, I don't know about Knights. What 780 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:09,320 Speaker 1: it feels like is that we are two to three 781 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:15,919 Speaker 1: generations behind sprawl in California, which obviously restrict supply, which 782 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: means demand goes up, which price goes up. What do 783 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 1: is there any fixing that or what can be done 784 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: from on a governmental policy level to like try and 785 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 1: play catch up to this three generations of we're behind. 786 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 1: He just didn't do any of the stuff that we 787 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 1: should have done in the time that we were doing it. 788 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 4: Well, one of my biggest things is that we have 789 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 4: to self reflect and see that Republicans actually caused a 790 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 4: lot of these issues Reagan. Reagan add secret of but 791 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 4: kind of remember Reagan created Sequel, he did, but two 792 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:50,520 Speaker 4: years after he was like, hey, this is getting abused, 793 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 4: this is not how we intended it, and did nothing 794 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 4: to fix it, all right, And not only that, the 795 00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 4: same thing is Richard Nixon. 796 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,760 Speaker 1: Sorry, explained Sequel really quick. Sequel as a cal Environmental 797 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: Quality Act. We have to do all of these studies. 798 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 4: To figure out if fish exists. I don't know, well, 799 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 4: if there's fossils. 800 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:11,280 Speaker 1: In the seventies, the smog or pollution in Los Angeles 801 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 1: was unbearable. Oh yeah, and so it was kind of necessary. 802 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: And that's why Reagan was like, hey, as a conserve, 803 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: I want to conserve you know, quality of life for 804 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: people here. We need to put this into place. And 805 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: this one was more for like extinct animals than that. 806 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,839 Speaker 4: And then they created the air board for a lot 807 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,839 Speaker 4: of the air policles, which they've done a great job 808 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 4: at it.
