1
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,600
Speaker 1: The Charlie Kirk Show starts now.

2
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 2: The left and people that don't like the president and

3
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 2: don't want things to work, and you know, like the

4
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 2: Center and Elizabeth Morreon will come on and say, inflation's

5
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: out of control and the economy is getting killed by

6
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 2: what's happening by these tarffs, this three percent with the

7
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: market at new highs, and really we haven't seen inflation,

8
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 2: you know, go up back to three for maybe it

9
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: will this week, maybe.

10
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: We'll see it.

11
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 2: But none of these things, none of these horrible things

12
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 2: have happened.

13
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 3: But they still talk like it's happening.

14
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 4: It's amazing.

15
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 5: Well, the important there's an important lesson there. Don't pick

16
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 5: a cornesssman to be your money manager atte That's what.

17
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 4: I would say.

18
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 6: I'm not expecting a rate cut today. The market of

19
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 6: pricing and rape cuts and what I'm hoping that we

20
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 6: can see out of the leadership of the Federal Reserve

21
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 6: is a little bit of imagination.

22
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,399
Speaker 7: They were wrong in teriff employtion.

23
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 6: And by the way, teriffs a one time price adjustment

24
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,039
Speaker 6: if it happens.

25
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 7: Which it hasn't happened, is not.

26
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 8: Yes, the Europeans annoy me sometimes, and yes, I disagree

27
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 8: with them on certain issues, but we have to remember

28
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 8: that is the cradle of Western civilization, the entire entire

29
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 8: idea of Christian civilization that led to the founding of

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 8: the United States of America.

31
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:37,759
Speaker 7: That was formed in Europe.

32
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 8: Europe is at risk, I think, of creating, of engaging

33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 8: in civilizational suicide. They are unable to or unwilling too

34
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 8: many countries to control their borders.

35
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 7: You see them starting to push.

36
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 8: Back against that, and good, that's a good thing. You

37
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 8: see them starting to limit the free speech of their

38
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 8: own citizens, even as those citizens are protesting against things

39
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 8: like the border invasion. And I want Europe to thrive.

40
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 8: I want them to be an important ally.

41
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 9: Last night, I was surprised to see President Trump on

42
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 9: true social go after me and Senate Republicans over what

43
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 9: we call the Blue Slipt. I was offended by what

44
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 9: the President said, and I'm disappointed that it would result

45
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 9: in personal insults.

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,519
Speaker 4: Now, we're here to do business.

47
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 9: That's very important part of this committee's work, to do

48
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 9: our constitutional duties of reviewing people that require Senate confirmation.

49
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 10: I refer to this, mister President, as a historic level

50
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 10: of obstruction, and I mean it President Trump is the

51
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 10: only president on record, the only president on record to

52
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 10: not have a single one of his civilian nominees confirmed

53
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 10: by unanimous can't consent voice vote at this point in

54
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 10: his presidency, the only president on record. Just to offer

55
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 10: a point of comparison here, by this point in his presidency,

56
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 10: President Biden had had forty four civilian nominees.

57
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: Confirmed by voice vote.

58
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 10: President Trump hasn't had one.

59
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 11: The European Union was essentially closed to doing business with

60
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 11: the United States. You couldn't really get in. They didn't

61
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 11: take cars, they didn't take agriculture, they didn't take very much.

62
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 11: And they've opened up entirely and we'll be able to

63
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 11: sell a full complement of cars, trucks, as SUVs, everything,

64
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 11: and ultimately it's going to be good for them. And

65
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 11: I think they're also going to come over and build

66
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 11: plants in the United States. And when you do that,

67
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 11: you don't have to pay the taffs and they'll be

68
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 11: paying a fifteen percent tariff and everything.

69
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 12: Again, GDP, this is the first read of the second

70
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 12: quarter coming in at three percent, that is better than

71
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 12: expected to two point four percent. I want to bring it,

72
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 12: Adam Johnson. Markets are certainly watching this right.

73
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 13: Yeah, goldilocks, because I would add to that, Cheryl, that

74
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 13: the GDP price index was only two percent and the

75
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 13: expectation was two point two. In other words, we have

76
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 13: an economy growing at what you say, three percent, we

77
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 13: have inflation at two percent.

78
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: That's the best of both worlds.

79
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 13: So I'm very positive on that report, at least in

80
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 13: the moment yesterday.

81
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 14: You mentioned that you would change the rushing in line

82
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 14: to ten twelve years.

83
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 4: I'm ready ten days from today.

84
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 15: Yeah.

85
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 11: So you know, we had Hillary cletting down to whatever

86
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,160
Speaker 11: we wanted to do with her, and.

87
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 4: I felt it was inappropriate.

88
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,799
Speaker 3: She's the wife of the president, she was a Secretary

89
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 3: of State, and.

90
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 11: We could have done a very big number indicting her

91
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 11: all the things that you have to do, the university stuff,

92
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,279
Speaker 11: and I said, we don't want to do that. Do

93
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 11: you remember I made speeches When I mentioned her name,

94
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 11: they started.

95
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: Locklock or hockey, Yeah.

96
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 4: And I said, no, no, this is after we won.

97
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: And yet they did it to me.

98
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 14: Yeah.

99
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 16: Every day is a battle for your mind, raging information

100
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 16: coming from every angle, but the will to the sieve

101
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 16: fear not.

102
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: You found the place for truth.

103
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 16: The voice from a generation that still has the will

104
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,000
Speaker 16: to believe in the greatest country in the history of

105
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 16: the world. This is the Charlie Kirk Show. Tuck a

106
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 16: lot here we go on.

107
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 7: Okay, everybody, Radio stations across the country honored to be

108
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 7: with you. As always. It is a beautiful Wednesday here

109
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 7: at the Bitcoin dot Com mobile studio. Yesterday was an

110
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 7: interesting day. Apparently I'm going to be highlighted on South Park.

111
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 7: We'll talk about that later in the hour. Goes to

112
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,119
Speaker 7: show the cultural impact that we have achieved at Turning

113
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 7: Point USA. Oh, we'll talk all about that, But first

114
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 7: something much more important than the fact that we have

115
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 7: reached a cultural pinnacle. The US Senate has some very

116
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 7: good traditions, and right now President Donald Trump has hundreds

117
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 7: of people that he needs in his administration that are

118
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 7: not being confirmed. Hundreds of people people such as third

119
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 7: in line at the Department of Justice, people such as

120
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 7: general counsels at the Department Education, very important positions. So

121
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 7: when you don't fill these positions, do you know who

122
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 7: then currently occupies those slots and those posts. Careers, career

123
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 7: employees of these agencies that have contempt for Donald Trump.

124
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 7: They are part of the deep state of government. These

125
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,160
Speaker 7: folks run the day to day operation. So basically, President

126
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 7: Donald Trump has not yet taken over the federal government.

127
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 7: Donald Trump won the election, Donald Trump is president, but

128
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 7: Donald Trump has not yet taken over the federal government.

129
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 7: I w need to think about that. Even though we

130
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 7: had an election almost a year ago, even though Donald

131
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 7: Trump has been president for six months, he still does

132
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 7: not have his people in there. Bureaucrats in a city

133
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 7: that went ninety ten for Democrats are running your government.

134
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 7: And it's not because of Donald Trump with the White House.

135
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,840
Speaker 7: They're doing their job and they're doing it rapidly. No,

136
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 7: it's because of the US Senate. Now we've talked yesterday,

137
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 7: and I mean this half jokingly, the US Senate John Thune.

138
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 7: Turn off the air conditioning. By the way, in the

139
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 7: coming days, it'll be a very muggy eighty five degrees

140
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 7: in DC. And you better believe they'll start confirming people

141
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 7: if you do that. But there's another problem at play

142
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 7: here outside of the delay, which we examined thoroughly with

143
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 7: Senator Rick Scott and with Senator Mark Wwaye Mullin, and

144
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 7: then we have Senator Lee coming up. Because we are

145
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 7: keeping the pressure run on this program. We are demanding pace,

146
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 7: We're demanding confirmations at this show right now, in this

147
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 7: midsummer moment. The most important thing that we can draw

148
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 7: your attention to, the most important thing that we as

149
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 7: a collective, Charlie kirkshow team can do, is to demand

150
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 7: the US Senate X. But it's not just the delays.

151
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 7: It's something all so called a blue slip. You're about

152
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 7: to learn something. If you don't know what a blue

153
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 7: slip is, you're about to learn how the good old

154
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 7: boys Club of the US Senate operates. The blue slip

155
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 7: refers to a practice used by the Senate Judiciary Committee

156
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 7: for judicial nominations for circuit and court judge ships, but

157
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 7: also for US attorneys. So what is a US attorney?

158
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 7: A US attorney is someone that works for the Department

159
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 7: of Justice, confirmed by the US Senate, that oversees prosecutions

160
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 7: and indictments and criminal cases. The US attorney. They have

161
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 7: geographic jurisdictions. So there's a US attorney for the Southern

162
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 7: District of New York. There's a US attorney for South Florida.

163
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 7: There's a US attorney in Arizona. The problem is that

164
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 7: President Donald Trump wants to be able to crush sanctuary cities.

165
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 7: For one, he wants to be able to go after

166
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 7: the Democrat Act Blue apparatus. However, this is the key.

167
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 7: Donald Trump can't proceed on so much of the sanctuary

168
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 7: city cartel activity until he gets his US attorneys confirmed.

169
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 7: So US attorneys must go through the Senate Judiciary Committee.

170
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 7: And so President Donald Trump wrote this scathing truth social yesterday.

171
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 7: But let me dive this a little bit deep and

172
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 7: deeper into this. Before the nineteen fifties, blue slips were

173
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 7: never used. But nineteen fifty six onward, a senator by

174
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 7: the name of James Eastland, the blue slit slip became

175
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 7: a tool to allow either home state senator to veto

176
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 7: a nominee by simply not returning the slip. So, basically,

177
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 7: let's say Donald Trump wants to get a US attorney

178
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 7: for where I live in Phoenix, Arizona, or even more importantly,

179
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 7: a US attorney in Tucson. Tucson is filled with cartel activity,

180
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 7: child sex, trafficking, narco drugs right now, and we're aiming

181
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 7: to eventually fix it. Arizona has two Democrat Senators, Mark

182
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 7: Kelly and Ruben Diego. So let's say Donald Trump wants

183
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 7: to have a rock star, non controversial US attorney for

184
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 7: Arizona who wants to go after the cartels, and he

185
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,839
Speaker 7: nominates let's just say Mark Lamb, for example, someone that's

186
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:25,599
Speaker 7: just a rock star. To kill that US attorney that

187
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 7: the President wants and that people voted for, all Mark

188
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 7: Kelly or Ruben Diego have to do is submit an

189
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 7: anonymous blue slip and that nominee dies. Now the timeline

190
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 7: under orin Hatch, a nominee could receive a hearing even

191
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 7: if one home state senator objected. But basically the tradition,

192
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 7: this is simply tradition. This is not constitutional, this is

193
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 7: not Senate rules. This is nothing more than a statesman

194
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,480
Speaker 7: tradition of the United States Senate. Now. But Donald Trump

195
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 7: put out a very fiery truth social last night, and

196
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 7: he's right. It's a blue slip scam. Joe Biden openly

197
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 7: broke with this at least two times, so Democrats have

198
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 7: broken with this in the past. But we as Republicans,

199
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 7: you see, we're the guardians of tradition. While we can't

200
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 7: get US attorneys now here is where it completes the point,

201
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 7: you want to know why we have not indicted Brandon

202
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 7: Johnson as the mayor of Chicago. Do you want to

203
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 7: know why we can't go after Karen Bass. Do you

204
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 7: want to know why we can't go after some of

205
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 7: the act Blue oligarchs that have obviously been flirting up

206
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 7: against the law. Do you want to know why we

207
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 7: have not been able to go after the sanctuary cities

208
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 7: in New York. It's because we don't have US attorneys

209
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 7: confirmed there. We have Biden holdovers running the US attorney's

210
00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 7: offices all across the country. Now, ultimately, of course Pam

211
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 7: Bondi is in charge of them, but there's I think

212
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 7: there's like one hundred and thirty US attorney jurisdictions. I

213
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 7: could be wrong, and so Pam Bondi can't count possibly

214
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 7: and Todd Blanche possibly manage every single US attorney outfit

215
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 7: in Montana and Alaska and Hawaii, in Missouri. You need

216
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 7: your people there. So Donald Trump has made recommendations and

217
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 7: nominations for all these people. But it unfortunately, a good

218
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 7: man is doing something wrong. And that's what happens sometimes

219
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 7: in politics, good men do something incorrect, and that is

220
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 7: Chuck Grassley Chuck Grassley is an awesome person. He's a legend.

221
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 7: He's been around forever. He's one of the older guys

222
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,199
Speaker 7: in the US Senate. I have a lot of respect for.

223
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 7: He has won a lot of elections in Iowa. But

224
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 7: he is old school and this is a hill he

225
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 7: will die on. You see, Chuck Grassley is empowering blue

226
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 7: state Democrats. Chuck Grassley is giving power to Reuben Diego

227
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 7: and to Mark Kelly. Chuck Grassley is giving power to

228
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 7: gillibrand to Schumer. So if we want to get a

229
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 7: US attorney in the southern District of New York, which

230
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 7: we need, by the way, to go after sanctuary cities

231
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 7: and child sex trafficking and drugs, we can't do it

232
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 7: if Chuck Schumer or a Democrat on the Senate Judiciary

233
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 7: Committee summits a blue sled. And so then they go

234
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 7: back to the home center. And here's the one that

235
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,719
Speaker 7: matters for all of you in the audience and you

236
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 7: probably care about. How about Alina Haba. Alina Haba is

237
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 7: trying to become the US Attorney for New Jersey, but

238
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 7: Corey Booker refuses to move on her. Corey Booker has

239
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 7: veto power over the president, even though we have a

240
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 7: Senate majority. Because of this ridiculous tradition called the blue

241
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 7: slip scam, President Donald Trump writes last night, I would

242
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 7: never be Therefore, after this long explanation that basically I

243
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 7: just gave, I would never be able to appoint great

244
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 7: judges or US attorneys. So it goes for judging the

245
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 7: US attorneys in California, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, Virginia,

246
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 7: and other places where there is coincidentally, the highest level

247
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 7: of crime and corruption. President Trump is spot on here.

248
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 7: This is ten out of ten Trump, where Trump is like,

249
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,920
Speaker 7: I'm trying to clean up the cities of La San Francisco,

250
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 7: I'm trying to clean up Portland, I'm trying to clean

251
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 7: up Seattle. I am the president of the United States

252
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 7: of America, not the president of the Red States of America.

253
00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 7: But unfortunately, because of this blue slip tradition that never

254
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,439
Speaker 7: should have happened. Because the Senate takes themselves so seriously,

255
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 7: they are able to overrule the will of the president.

256
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 7: Do you see a Do you see a pattern here?

257
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 7: This reminds me of the parliamentarian story Loophole's gumming up

258
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 7: the works of popular sovereignty. This is not constitutional, it's

259
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 7: not within like well Article three or Article four sub

260
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 7: sect now ain't wrong. This is simply an old boys

261
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 7: club of some sort of will. We must honor the

262
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 7: sentative from Arizona Ruben Diego, who, by the way, his

263
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 7: policies are awfully akin to that of the cartels. So

264
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 7: Ruben Diego can block again I care about Arizona. He

265
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 7: can block a US attorney that wants to go against

266
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 7: the cartels. Even though Donald Trump won Arizona by six points.

267
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 7: So Trump wins Arizona, and he doesn't get the US

268
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 7: attorneys that people voted for because Ruben Diego has veto

269
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 7: power over the president. Because Chuck Grassley is defending this

270
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 7: ridiculous tradition, I'll explain more in just the second. Patriot

00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 7: big supporters of Turning Point USA and everything that we

314
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 7: do on campus through an action summit wyrefi dot com. Okay, everybody,

315
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 7: welcome back. Email lessons always freedom at Charliekirk dot com.

316
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 7: So people are blowing us up on emails. Freedom at

317
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 7: Charliekirk dot com here at the Mobile Bitcoin dot com studio, Charlie,

318
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 7: what can we do? What can we do? What can

319
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 7: be done? Do we have to go to the Supreme Court? Nope?

320
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 7: Just very simple. Chuck grass has to decide to no

321
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 7: longer honor this ridiculous tradition. That's it doesn't require a vote,

322
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:54,000
Speaker 7: does it require a parliamentarian? Chuck Grassley literally has to

323
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 7: just say I'm not giving veto power to Democrats over

324
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 7: a president who on a popular vote majority. And even

325
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 7: here's the kicker won the swing states that they are

326
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 7: contesting it. Let me give another example. Atlanta, hot Lanta,

327
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 7: not exactly, mostly it's a mostly peaceful city. Two Democrat

328
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 7: Senators Rafael Warnock and John Ausif if Donald Trump wants

329
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 7: to put a US attorney in Atlanta, easily could have

330
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 7: pocket veto. So again, that's a state Donald Trump won.

331
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 7: Donald Trump won Georgia, Donald Trump won Arizona, Donald Trump

332
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 7: won Nevada. What if Donald Trump wants to put a

333
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 7: US attorney in Las Vegas, one of the child sex

334
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,920
Speaker 7: trafficking capitals of America. So it is Atlanta. So Donald

335
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,959
Speaker 7: Trump wants to put a US attney in Vegas. Nope,

336
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 7: Cortes Masto can veto him and there's nothing he can

337
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 7: do about it. It's because Chuck Grassley is defending an antiquated,

338
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,760
Speaker 7: broken system when the Senate used to actually be about commonality,

339
00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 7: and by the way that tradition was when we were

340
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 7: in a different country. This is the key. Grassley is

341
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 7: defending a tradition that started in nineteen fifty when we

342
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 7: used to be a country of neighbors, not strangers. We

343
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 7: are a different nation. We have to have dramatic and

344
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 7: bold action. This is not even that dramatic. It's can

345
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 7: a president get the US attorneys he wants? There's no

346
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 7: Senate rule about this. It's simply a spoken tradition. That's it.

347
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 7: This was all birth out of Pax Americana. Chuck Grassley

348
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 7: fires back to Donald Trump again. I like Chuck Grassley

349
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 7: a lot. He is very wrong here. Chuck Grassley is wrong.

350
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 7: And sir, if you're listening, your team is listening. We

351
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,680
Speaker 7: have great respect for you. Do not die on this hill.

352
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 7: This will be a legacy ender. This will be you

353
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,959
Speaker 7: not finishing well, but you've ran a great race. Do

354
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 7: not do this. Do not give veto power to New Jersey, California, Illinois, Arizona,

355
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,800
Speaker 7: and Atlanta Democrats to be able to usurp the sovereign

356
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 7: of this country. Don't do this play cup three ninety two.

357
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 9: Last night, I surprised to see President Trump on True

358
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 9: Social go after me and Senate Republicans over what we

359
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 9: call the Blue slip. The people in real America don't

360
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 9: care about what the Blue slip is, but in fact

361
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 9: it impacts in their states, the district judges who serve

362
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 9: their communities and the US attorneys who ensure the law

363
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 9: and order is enforced. I was offended by what the

364
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 9: President said, and I'm disappointed that it would result in

365
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 9: personal insults. Now, we're here to do business. That's very

366
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 9: important part of this committee's work, to do our constitutional

367
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 9: duties of reviewing people that require Senate confirmation.

368
00:20:54,240 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 7: Okay, first of all, this is not a personal insult

369
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 7: attack by Donald Trump. This was very tepid by Trump

370
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 7: truth social means, So Truck Grassley should just kind of

371
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,240
Speaker 7: understand that was hardly a salvo from the President. I says,

372
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 7: we've seen truth socials that get a little bit hot

373
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 7: and spicy. That was cool as a cucumber. Secondly, did

374
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 7: he say that people in real America don't care about this. Hilariously,

375
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 7: we're actually live right now on Real America's Voice High

376
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 7: Center of Grassley. You're actually live on Real America right now. No,

377
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,439
Speaker 7: I think this audience really cares about the fact that

378
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 7: Donald Trump, the winner of the election, does not get

379
00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 7: his US attorneys. There By the way, people say, when

380
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 7: are we indicting all the Russia Gate people? Not gonna happen.

381
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 7: Will not happen until you get US attorneys. You understand

382
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 7: that there will be no high profile indictments. We're all

383
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 7: waiting where are the indictment's coming? Can happen if you

384
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:56,080
Speaker 7: have US attorneys literally, I mean again, the US Attorney

385
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,600
Speaker 7: General Pambondi can do some of this, but over time

386
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 7: it's a man in power. You need someone to come

387
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 7: into a US Attorney's office and then they run the

388
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 7: entire thing. It's pure delegation. The Department of Justice has

389
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 7: tens of thousands of employees. You're not gonna have just

390
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 7: a couple civilians like Todd, Blanche and Pambondi be able

391
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 7: to run the entire thing. I think that we need

392
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 7: to line up why. I think we need to light

393
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:25,160
Speaker 7: up Leader thuns phones on this. I forget grass Grass

394
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 7: He's a stick in the mud. He's not gonna move.

395
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 7: But John Fune can get grassly to move. And John

396
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 7: Thune's phone number is two zero two two two four

397
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 7: two three two one. When not his phone number, but

Speaker 7: his DC office is publicly listed one. That's two zero

00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 7: two two two four two three two one. Let's put

00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 7: it up on screen. It's two zero two two two

00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,600
Speaker 7: four two three two one. Call Leader Fuon's office and

402
00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 7: say we're not gonna put up with this blue slip scam.

403
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 7: The leader needs to come in and say, chuck enough.

404
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 7: This has been a nineteen fifties packs Americana tradition that

405
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 7: we've grandfathered in. We're gonna put an end to this

406
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 7: because I'm telling you right now in the audience, you

407
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 7: will get a fraction of what you voted for if

408
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 7: the blue slip scam remains. Email me your thoughts freedom

Speaker 7: right there.

412
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,640
Speaker 17: By between Trump and the Federal Reserve, putting us all

413
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 17: behind the curve yet again, Can the Fed take the

414
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 17: right action at the right time or are we going

415
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 17: to be looking at a problem economically with the slowdown?

416
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 17: And what does this all mean for your savings? Well,

417
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,080

419
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 17: a safe haven in times of economic stagnation, global uncertainty,

420
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,800

00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 17: you can now convert that into a tax sheltered iray

424
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 17: in physical gold, or you can just buy some gold

00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 17: the word America to the number ninety eight ninety eight

429
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 17: ninety eight. Again, text the word America to the number

430
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,800

431
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 17: of your savings into gold. That way, if the Fed

432
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,479
Speaker 17: can't stay ahead of the curb for their country, at

433
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 17: least you can stay ahead for yourself. Terrence Bates here

434
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,080
Speaker 17: with your Real America's Voice news break as the deadline

435
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 17: to reach a trade deal with President Trump or face

436
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 17: that thirty percent tariff is just days away. The Trump

437
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 17: administration is celebrating another economic victory this morning. It turns

438
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 17: out the US gross domestic product grew by three percent

439
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 17: during the second quarter of this year after shrinking by

440
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 17: a half percent during the previous quarter. It's a win

441
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 17: for the Trump administration and a potential sign that the

442
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 17: president's tariff policies are working. Market experts point to a

443
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 17: thirty percent decline in imports, an increase in consumer spending,

444
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,719
Speaker 17: and a rebound in government spending. The US Bureau of

445
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:14,160
Speaker 17: Economic Analysis says on average, American workers' salaries are also

446
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 17: going up year to year. Wages were up almost five

447
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 17: percent compared to the same time last year. Tsunami advisors

448
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 17: remain in effect for parts of the West Coast, spanning California, Oregon,

449
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 17: and Washington State. A warning for Hawaii has now been lifted. Still,

450
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 17: people along the coast are being warned to be on

451
00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 17: guard for strong currents and dangerous waves. That's a quick

452

Speaker 17: check of your headlines. I'm Terrence Bates.

Speaker 1: The next Great Awakening. Welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show.

454
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 7: Okay, everybody. In just a second, we have Senator Mike Lee,

455
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 7: this video is going viral on TikTok. Big time, play

456
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 7: cut eight.

457
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 4: Why don't you believe that white pro which exists?

458
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 12: I just want to get your understanding first, and then

459
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 12: we could go from there.

460
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,399
Speaker 7: Well, let's just is there anything that you can't do

461
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 7: that I can do?

462
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 12: No, we could do the same things if we put

463
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 12: our eyes to it.

464
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 7: Good, then there's no white privilege. Boom, great example of

465
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,679

468
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 7: posted yesterday, a couple million views. We should get the

480
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 7: is Senator Mike Lee. Senator Lee, thank you so much

481
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 7: for taking the time. Senator, our audience is pretty fired

482
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 7: up about the blue slips. Where did this tradition come from?

483
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 7: And why should we give veto power to Democrat senators

484
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 7: over President Trump's ability to have US attorneys as he chooses.

485
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 18: As far as where it came from, it's a president

486
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 18: that's many, many decades old, and it really is a

487
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 18: protection that's there to make sure that local judges, US attorneys,

488
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 18: US marshalls have the support of.

489
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 4: Their home state senators.

490
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 18: Now, one thing I should point out here is that

491
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 18: it's not an immutable rule. It was not carved into stone.

492
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 18: It's not set by law or even rules of the Senate.

493
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 18: It is only a tradition. Consequently, it has changed many times,

494
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 18: including during the previous Trump administration.

495
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 4: So what exists today as the.

496
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 18: Blue slip process is not identical to what it's always been.

497
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 18: It changes periodically, more changes could be made as it's abused. Customarily,

498
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 18: members of both political parties have in the past deferred

499
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 18: in many respects to some of the sitting president's priorities,

500
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 18: even if they're of the opposing party. People have recommended

501
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,439
Speaker 18: district judges and US attorneys, for example, who might not

502
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 18: be the same people they would recommend if the president

503
00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 18: were of their party, but they find acceptable. Nonetheless, over time,

504
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 18: Democrats have started abusing the blue slip and in many

505
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 18: instances unreasonably refusing to identify anyone who might be mutually

506
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 18: agreeable both them and the president.

507
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 7: Right, that's where we're running into a little fork in

508
00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 7: the road. So, for example, in California, these senators do

509
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 7: not want anyone and so is it time for us

510
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 7: or is there conversations to bypass this blue slip tradition

511
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 7: because Senator you and I both want to see cartels

512
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 7: gone after we can't have empty US attorney's offices for

513
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 7: years that rob's President Trump and of an important instrument

514
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 7: of his government, including in New York or Seattle or Portland.

515
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 7: In some ways, you're basically confederating the entire country. This

516
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:36,520
Speaker 7: is a neo Confederate way to create sanctuary zones where

517
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 7: US attorneys would not be able to fulfill what the

518
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 7: president won a popular vote majority on. Senator, Yeah, and

519
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 7: we certainly.

520
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 4: Can't have that happening.

521
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,720
Speaker 18: Look, in previous Democratic administrations, including most recently in the

522
00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 18: Biden administration, we had the understanding that you could break

523
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 18: the blue slip if you acted unreasonably, if you unreasonably

524
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 18: refused to consent to anyone the President might find acceptable, well,

525
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 18: refuse to recommend somebody to return a blue slip. If

526
00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:10,440
Speaker 18: you did that unreasonably, that the blue slip might well

527
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 18: be circumvented. And so I suspect we may near that point,

528
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:15,800
Speaker 18: if we're not there already.

529
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, So as far as my encouragement goes, Senator, I

530
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 7: think you guys are there. And I have such great

531
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 7: respect for Senator Grassley. I think he's wrong here to

532
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 7: just be let's say, immovable. So, for whatever it's worth, need,

533
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 7: I think you need to tell the colleagues. Your colleagues,

534
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,719
Speaker 7: our audience is fired up because look, when you are

535
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 7: now six seven months into administration and you guys can't

536
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 7: get US attorneys confirmed too deferential to the Democrats, And

537
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 7: you and I both know Senator that if these were

538
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 7: good faith objections by the Democrats and they're trying to

539
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 7: come to some sort of happy, happy medium, find this

540
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 7: is pure obstructionism. This is hate Trump get in the

541
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 7: way of the agenda. There are cartels that are running

542
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 7: rampant in a lot of these states, and we need

543
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 7: US attorneys to be able to broker the broker the

544
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 7: pforcement of the law. So, Senator, I now want to

545
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 7: ask you about more broadly about confirmations. The audience is

546
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 7: also very fired up as to why there are so many.

547
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 7: There's a confirmation backlog. You have a lot of thoughts

548
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 7: on this. You were texting me the other day. Actually

549
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 7: missed a call from you, so sorry, So we'll talk now.

550
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 7: I suppose, Senator, what is the plan forward so that

551
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 7: we can get President Trump his personnel and properly staffed

552
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 7: the government.

553
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 4: But there are two basic ways we can approach this.

554
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 18: As of right now, we're approaching one hundred and fifty

555
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,560
Speaker 18: Trump nominees who were on the Senate's executive calendar, that

556
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 18: is the pending list of presidential nominees before the Senate.

557
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,719
Speaker 18: It keeps going up every day. Just day before yesterday

558
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 18: it was at one forty four. We just this morning

559
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 18: to the committees I serve on Energy and Natural Resources,

560
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 18: which I chair, and Foreign Relations, on which I also serve.

561
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 18: Those two committees alone submitted an additional six names to

562
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 18: the executive calendar just today, and we're not clearing the

563
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 18: backlog nearly as quickly as we're adding to it. So

564
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 18: here's my basic pitch. The Senate has no business taking

565
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 18: a recess for the month of August, which is currently

566
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 18: said to be the entirety of the month of August,

567
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 18: without first clearing the backlog.

568
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 4: We shouldn't do that.

569
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 18: The American people work hard, they expect us to do

570
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 18: the same, especially when we're seriously behind. Now there are

571
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 18: reasons for this. The Democrats have delayed unreasonably. They've thrown

572
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 18: every procedural or wrench in the gears that they can find.

573
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 18: But we got to work twice as hard when they

574
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 18: do that. So we shouldn't recess. And if somehow the

575
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,360
Speaker 18: Senate were to decide to resist unwisely, in my mind,

576
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 18: without clearing the backlog, at a minimum, for the love

577
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 18: of all that is sacred and holy and constitutional, we

578
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 18: should not be holding what are called pro forma Senate

579
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 18: sessions while we are in recess, because those pro forma sessions,

580
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,840
Speaker 18: what they do is prohibit the President of the United

581
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 18: States from exercising what would otherwise be is power to

582
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:07,080
Speaker 18: fill appointments for a recess appointment under the Constitution. So

583
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 18: don't recess. And if we unwisely recess, no pro forma sessions.

584
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:12,240
Speaker 4: That's the formula.

585
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, and so there is there also a strategy to

586
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 7: try to break the will of the Democrats, to try

587
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 7: and get them to basically surrender their obstruction. Senator Yes, yes.

588
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 18: And the best way to do this is the way

589
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,680
Speaker 18: the Senate always works. The Senate works according to unanimous consent.

590
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 18: You can't do almost anything in the Senate without the

591
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 18: Senate agreeing unanimously to move to the next step. Now,

592
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 18: you can grind the Senate to the halt if you've

593
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 18: got objectors who object to literally everything, But there's a

594
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 18: way around that. And the Senate works on the principle

595
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 18: of exhaustion, meaning at some point where we remain and

596
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 18: say back, and these guys have to show up and speak,

597
00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:58,320
Speaker 18: they have to show up and vote. They get tired

598
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 18: of all the procedural objections because it becomes more difficult,

599
00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 18: particularly where you hold them in at a time when

600
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 18: they don't want to be here. So let's use it

601
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 18: to our advantage. They want to get out of town.

602
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 18: We want to get these people confirmed. Let's think when

603
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 18: when hold them in session on Bank Gary Lent, and

604
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 18: then we can get through these nominations very quickly.

605
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 7: I love it that now we're talking, Senator. The way

606
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 7: you just crisply put that in the last minute is

607
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 7: the best I've heard anyone summarize it. It works on exhaustion.

608
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 7: And also I know people make fun of me, and

609
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 7: I say this, just turn off the air conditioning. Oh Democrats,

610
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 7: you guys want you want to obstruct us? Eighty five

611
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 7: degrees humid air conditioning is not in the US Constitution.

612
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 7: All kidding aside here though, Senator on exhaustion, is is

613
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,440
Speaker 7: there a plan to get the Democrats what they want?

614
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 7: Democrats want to go to Aspen, Jackson Hole, Kenny Bunkport.

615
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 7: They want to get out of town. You want our people,

616
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 7: But Senator, is the Republican Conference unified? I mean, look,

617
00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,920
Speaker 7: I know you can't talk ill of your colleagues, but

618
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 7: I know some colleagues, for example, that they get out

619
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 7: of town Thursday, at the first moment they can. Will

620
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,120
Speaker 7: we have a unified Republican conference. That's a very important question,

621
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 7: or Republicans also end up sipping cocktails in the south

622
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,920
Speaker 7: of France in August when they should be voting for nominees.

623
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 4: Look, I want to believe Charlie.

624
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 18: In most ways, I do believe that most of my

625
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 18: Republican colleagues want.

626
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,359
Speaker 4: To get this job done. Now.

627
00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 18: I think there are a number of different opinions. We've

628
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 18: got fifty three Republican senators, We've got a lot of

629
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 18: different opinions on exactly how.

630
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 4: Best to go about that.

631
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 18: But I will say this, based on our conversations yesterday afternoon,

632
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 18: the conference is coming together much more than we were

633
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 18: last week.

634
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,359
Speaker 4: In acknowledging that there is a problem.

635
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:48,960
Speaker 18: That it has to be addressed, and we can't simply

636
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 18: leave without fixing the problem. There's still a number of

637
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 18: opinions about how exactly to go about that, but I

638
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 18: think we're coming closer to being unified on this issue.

639
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 18: I myself could accept several different variations of an outcome,

640
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,480
Speaker 18: but the one we absolutely must not do is recess

641
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 18: and then prohibit the president from doing what presidents are

642
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 18: allowed to do during a recess that is unacceptable. The

643
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 18: very best solution involves staying here, getting butts and chairs,

644
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 18: and making those same senators who are delaying the process

645
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 18: be part of the solution instead of part of the problem,

646
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,560
Speaker 18: when we make it easy for them to delay and

647
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 18: obstruct just so that they can have more governance, more

648
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 18: dominance by.

649
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 4: The overwhelmingly left leaning deep.

650
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 18: State bureaucrats that otherwise will control these agencies.

651
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 4: As long as we don't confirm these personnel.

652
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 18: The more we facilitate that and make it comfortable for

653
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 18: them to obstruct and delay, the more we'll get that.

654
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 18: And by the way, Charlie, if we leave and we

655
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 18: don't fix the backlog, even if we didn't add a

656
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 18: single additional nominee between now and next year, we'd still

657
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 18: be well into the second quarter of twenty twenty six,

658
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 18: probably the end of April, before we gots ridiculous He's

659
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,680
Speaker 18: nominees confirmed. And that's before you consider the fact that

660
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 18: there'll probably be at least two hungredly addicial nominees on

661
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:11,440
Speaker 18: the calendar by then.

662
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 7: August is where all the Democrats they do all their planning.

663
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 7: They want time off. Take it from them. Break a deal, Senator,

664
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 7: really quick the Save Act. Chuck Schumer went after you

665
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 7: so aggressively the other day. What is the latest on

666
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,839
Speaker 7: the Save Act and remind people exactly what it is

667
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 7: men and a half remaining.

668
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 18: The Save Act tells the American people what American people

669
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 18: already expect and demand, which is that only US citizens

670
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 18: may vote in US elections. Now, that is already the law,

671
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,279
Speaker 18: but unfortunately, the way the Supreme Court has interpreted the law,

672
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 18: the states which run voter registration are not even allowed

673
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,840
Speaker 18: to ask on the National Voter Registration Act forms for

674
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,880
Speaker 18: proof of citizenship, even if they know or have reason

675
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,360
Speaker 18: to know that somebody is in fact, either itly in

676
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 18: the country or in the country legally.

677
00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 4: But not a citizen.

678
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,840
Speaker 18: They're not even allowed to ask for it or deny

679
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 18: somebody that if they certify that they are citizens, just

680
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,439
Speaker 18: taking it on their words. So the Save Act would

681
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:14,239
Speaker 18: require proof of citizenship at the time you register vote.

682
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 4: Look, you have to prove who you.

683
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 18: Are when you get it on an airplane, when you

684
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 18: go to the drug store, when you go to the

685
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 18: doctor's office, when you get a living license, Why not

686
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,560
Speaker 18: when you have to vote. Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer comes out

687
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 18: calls it a return to Jim Crow. Chuck Schumer, how

688
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 18: exactly is that a return to Jim Crow? To require

689
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 18: people to prove who they are when you have to

690
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 18: do that every time you go to TSA.

691
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 4: This is absolutely nonsense.

692
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,360
Speaker 18: And it's irresponsible for the Party of Jim Crow to

693
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,440
Speaker 18: be comparing to Jim Crow, that which any sane American

694
00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 18: recognizes must be the law.

695
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 7: Got to go. Senator, thank you for your time, and

696
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,359

698

699
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 7: Democrats an outsized and leveraged veto power over the presidency. Senator,

Speaker 7: So let me continue on the John Thune situation. Let's go.

740
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 7: I'm the Chuck Grassley one. Let's go for a nine

741
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 7: up on screen. This is John Thune's DC office if

742
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 7: you guys want to call calls two zero two two

743
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 7: two four. Far too often Republicans play to protect traditions

744
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 7: and Democrats play to win. Let me say that again.

745
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 7: Republicans play to protect traditions, and traditions should be protected

746
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 7: if the tradition is helping the country. Traditions should not

747
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,960
Speaker 7: be observed if they are bad, or they're not good

748
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 7: or they're not lifting you up towards something important. John

749
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,439
Speaker 7: Thune's DC office is two zero two two two four

750
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 7: two three two one. And look, a lot of egos

751
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 7: are involved in this. Many senators don't like being told

752
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 7: how to run their kingdoms. The reason I'm not putting

753
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 7: Chuck Grassley's number up is that this has got to

754
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 7: come from higher up. Democrats are abusing the tradition. Democrats

755
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,280
Speaker 7: do not have good faith. This is what always is important.

756
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 7: People say, well, Charlie, you know, don't democrats know? They

757
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 7: don't have the same intentions that we have. Democrats are

758
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:57,959
Speaker 7: abusing the tradition is what makes this entire thing null

759
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 7: and void. It invalidates the tradition at its core. You see.

760
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:10,960
Speaker 7: Taking a step back here, The idea that President Donald

761
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:18,880
Speaker 7: Trump cannot have the people of his choosing because some

762
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 7: senate Democrat from a blue state doesn't like him. I

763
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 7: think it's completely and totally outrageous. Okay, I think we're

764
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 7: back up. Is that right?

765
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:28,400
Speaker 6: All right?

766
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 7: We're gonna go through the breaks here, guys, just a

767
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 7: little bit, because I do want to talk about South

768
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 7: Park and I want to be able to have enough

769
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 7: adequate time. So yesterday I just started laughing when someone

770
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:43,960
Speaker 7: sent this to me. Apparently our very popular proved me

771
00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:50,000
Speaker 7: wrongs and our extraordinarily viral campus debates are being prominently

772
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 7: profiled on south Park. Let's play cut three ninety four.

773
00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 4: Wednesday August six.

774
00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 15: You can just shut up, baby, because you hate America

775
00:43:59,360 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 15: and you love.

776
00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:01,759
Speaker 4: A fun it all these south Park.

777
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 20: The epic season continues south Park New episode Wednesday, August

778
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,680
Speaker 20: six to ten on Comedy Sexually next day.

779
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 7: On their Mountain Plus. So if you don't watch south Park,

780
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:18,399
Speaker 7: it's very very popular, especially with younger people. Look, I mean,

781
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 7: I think we just have a good spirit and laugh

782
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 7: about this and a good attitude. But first of all,

783
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 7: that trailer was hilarious. You could shut up because you

784
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 7: hate America and love abortions. I mean, that's a pretty

785
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,239
Speaker 7: good summary of the lot of the left I see

786
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 7: on campus. But look, of course this is gonna be

787
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 7: professional comedians. They know what they're doing. They're gonna probably

788
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 7: roast me. But it's about time that we don't take

789
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,080
Speaker 7: ourselves so serious that. It's one of the problems with

790
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 7: the current political landscape, especially on the left, is people

791
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 7: take themselves so seriously be able to take a joke,

792
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 7: have a good sense of humor, and so south Park

793
00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 7: is kind of a cultural phenomenon. And make no mistake,

794
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 7: being mocked it means that you're doing something. And I've

795
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 7: been texted, by the way, congratulate by so many people,

796
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,760
Speaker 7: and they're probably gonna be nasty and c and vulgar

797
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 7: and all that stuff. But as you see Benny Johnson's

798
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 7: tweet up on screen there which is Carmen Cartman, not

799
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,759
Speaker 7: car It's Cartman. I thought Cartman is playing Charlie Kirk,

800
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 7: which is pretty cool. And also you see the security

801
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,360
Speaker 7: guy behind in the water bottle. Let's put some of

802
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:28,120
Speaker 7: these up on screen. Benny Johnson says, Cartman is playing

803
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 7: Charlie Kirk on the next episode of south Park, and

804
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,600
Speaker 7: its great honor pop culture can bestow upon you. Jack

805
00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,399
Speaker 7: Pisobac says, south Park is doing Cartman as Charlie Kirk.

806
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 7: Cartman is playing character inspired by Charlie Kirk on the

807
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 7: next south Park episode. Daily Caller writes, and Colin Rugg

808
00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:43,440
Speaker 7: as well, this is all very good, and this shows

809
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 7: that the cultural impact that we are making at Turning

810
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:51,319
Speaker 7: Point USA cannot even be ignored by the professional comedians

811
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 7: at Comedy Central and billions and billions of views later.

812
00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:59,800
Speaker 7: I tell you, guys, hey, we're going viral on Instagram

813
00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 7: and talk. This is exhibit A. This is evidence and

814
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:06,080
Speaker 7: we love it. And look they're gonna make fun of

815
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 7: me or whatever. Great, fine, that means I've done something.

816
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 7: That means that we are in a different league of

817
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,719
Speaker 7: cultural penetration. We are on their feeds. You know what

818
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 7: this means. This means that all the graphic designers, all

819
00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 7: the artists, all the script writers, all the comedians, they're

820
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 7: seeing Charlie Kirk turning Point USA stuff when they're flipping

821
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 7: through Instagram, when they're flipping through TikTok. Our stuff is

822
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 7: going viral and it is making a difference. In fact,

823
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,920
Speaker 7: one of my favorite things is when I'm on vacation

824
00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 7: or I'm traveling when a liberal parent has to take

825
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 7: the picture of their conservative son who likes me.

826
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 4: Oh it's great.

827
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,520
Speaker 7: Yeah, they asked me to take a picture, but I

828
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 7: can't stand you, but my son loves you. We're gonna

829
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 7: go through the break here just because of the little

830
00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:56,640
Speaker 7: technical difficulty, stay right there, and I'm looking forward to

831
00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 7: getting adequately roasted next week on South Park.

832
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 17: Right there, If you're stressed about back taxes, maybe you

865
00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 17: an increase in consumer spending, and a rebound in government spending.

866
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 17: The US Bureau of Economic Analysis says on average, American workers'

867

Speaker 17: up almost five percent compared to the very same time

869
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:27,799
Speaker 17: last year. Tsunami advisories remain in effect for parts of

870
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 17: the West Coast, spanning California, Oregon, and Washington State. A

871
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 17: warning for Hawaii has now been lifted, though still people

872
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 17: along the coast are being warned to be on guard

873
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 17: for strong currents and dangerous waves. A massive eight point

874
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:46,439
Speaker 17: eight magnitude hurricane or excuse me, earthquake in the far

875
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 17: eastern part of Russia is blamed for triggering this tsunami.

876
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 17: The quake is also said to be one of the

877
00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:56,439
Speaker 17: largest ever recorded. While several people were hurt, authorities say

878
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:59,680
Speaker 17: none of the injuries are serious and no major damage

879
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:03,839
Speaker 17: is In the meantime, some places, including the coast of Chile,

880
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:07,799
Speaker 17: reportedly saw waves of between ten and thirteen feet as

881
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:12,399
Speaker 17: a result of that quake sparking the tsunami. In northern California,

882
00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 17: waves of just over three and a half feet were recorded.

883
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 17: Look at this video here.

884
00:50:16,719 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: Wow.

885
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 17: The Trump administration is asking a couple of judges to

886
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:24,480
Speaker 17: release transcripts of the testimony a grand jury heard related

887
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,720
Speaker 17: to Jeffrey Epstein and Glaine Maxwell. It's the administration's latest

888
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 17: attempt to satisfy calls for transparency related to the case.

889
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,359
Speaker 17: Tuesday's request marks the second time the dj has asked

890
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 17: for the release of grand jury testimony. A couple of

891
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,920
Speaker 17: Manhattan judges sent the government back to the drawing board

892
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 17: earlier this month, saying lawyers needed to flesh out the

893
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 17: legal path of the legal basis for the requests. The

894
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:53,040
Speaker 17: latest court filings argue unsealing the files is appropriate given

895
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:56,960
Speaker 17: the quote abundant public interest in the Epstein case and

896
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,400
Speaker 17: the persistent scrutiny of how it was handled by the

897
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 17: federal law enforcement agencies who are investigated. The White House

898
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 17: is set to weigh in on cryptocurrency today when it

899
00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 17: releases a report on the digital asset industry. A cryptocurrency

900
00:51:12,080 --> 00:51:15,280
Speaker 17: working Group formed by President Trump is expected to outline

901
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 17: the administration's policies on tokenization and legislation related to crypto

902
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 17: Today's report release will reportedly lay out what rules and

903
00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:27,440
Speaker 17: laws should be enacted in order to advance policies related

904
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 17: to burgeoning markets. Part of the suggestions the working group

905
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,320
Speaker 17: is expected to roll out is ensuring that the Securities

906
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 17: in Exchange Commission has a framework in place for companies

907

Speaker 17: to offer blockchain based stocks and bonds.

908
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,160
Speaker 4: Sources say.

909
00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:45,560
Speaker 17: The report will also discuss the administration's wist list for

910
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 17: legislation that Congress is already debating in order to create

911
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 17: broad regulatory guidelines for crypto currency. The Trump White House

912
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:56,400
Speaker 17: has been at the forefront of working to address regulation

913
00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:01,080

00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 7: We have Megan Kelly Tucker, followed by Ben Shapiro and

928
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,879
Speaker 7: Candice Owns, all friends of mine, and so we are

929
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 7: right there in the thick of it. So thank you

930
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 7: guys for supporting this podcast and for downloading some episodes.

931
00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,720
Speaker 7: And yesterday the episode we had with the Apostate Profit

932
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 7: on Islam was one of the most important episodes I

933
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 7: have ever done. In fact, I have read listened to

934
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,239
Speaker 7: it now two times and I'll probably listen to it

935
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,399
Speaker 7: three times, all about what the apostate profit had to say.

936
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,600
Speaker 7: Joining us now is Stephen Moore talk all about Trump's economy,

937
00:53:42,680 --> 00:53:47,160
Speaker 7: author of Trump's Economic Miracle and senior economic contributor and

938
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:50,600
Speaker 7: for Freedom Works. Let's go to Steven Moore. Stephen, great

939
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:52,080
Speaker 7: to see you. Thank you so much for the time.

940
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,120
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, what today.

941
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,560
Speaker 14: I mean, I cannot believe these numbers that came out today.

942
00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 7: Charlie.

943
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:00,360
Speaker 3: Trump is hitting it out of the power.

944
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 14: And do you remember five months ago when all the

945
00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:05,320
Speaker 14: left is say, oh, Trump is going to cause a

946
00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 14: second great depression. He's going to destroy the economy, the

947
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 14: stock market's going to crash. We got the news today

948
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 14: of three percent economic growth for the second quarter. That's

949
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 14: higher than any quarter I believe in the four years

950
00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:20,600
Speaker 14: that Biden was president.

951
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 3: This economy is cooking right now.

952
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, so let's take a step back, so the GDP

953
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 7: comes in stronger than expected. Again, the media is not

954
00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,680
Speaker 7: covering any of this, right, So let's go to cut

955
00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:36,160
Speaker 7: three eighty two better than expected. Let's go to cut

956
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 7: three eighty two.

957
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 5: Please a three percent of three percent better than expected.

958
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,400
Speaker 5: That would be the highest level since the third quarter.

959
00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 5: Of twenty four, when it was up three point one

960
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:52,359
Speaker 5: percent on the consumption side, up one point four, very

961
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 5: close to estimates. At one point four would be the

962
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 5: best since the last quarter of twenty four.

963
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:04,560
Speaker 7: And Steve, this is without the enactment of some of

964
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:08,600
Speaker 7: the additional Trump tax cuts like full depreciation, and so

965
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 7: it conceivably could get even better. But Steve, one of

966
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 7: the things that I think is important here is how

967
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 7: wrong the expert class was on voice. Remember back in spring.

968
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,800
Speaker 7: In spring they said that you know, we're barreling towards

969
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,680
Speaker 7: a recession. JP Morgan says, odds of reception or increase

970
00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 7: recession or increasing the credential class Your thought, Steve.

971
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,279
Speaker 3: Moore, No, that's exactly right.

972
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 14: I mean, you know, we have something in our hotline

973
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 14: today and people want to get that. Just go to

974
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,480
Speaker 14: n leash prosperity dot com and sign up.

975
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:39,919
Speaker 3: It's free.

976
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:43,839
Speaker 14: But we had this great piece that Paul Krugman, who

977
00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:46,680
Speaker 14: won a Nobel Prize, probably the leading economic voice on

978
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:49,280
Speaker 14: the left, who's saying said Trump is going to crash

979
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,640
Speaker 14: the economy. He's going to destroy the American economy.

980
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: And here we are.

981
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,160
Speaker 3: I doubt he's going to an issue an.

982
00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:57,839
Speaker 14: Apology for that, but this, and by the way, I

983
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:00,880
Speaker 14: was wrong when I saw the economy in April. Remember

984
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:03,359
Speaker 14: that the South marbo Is bound down by twenty five

985
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 14: hundred points, and it just looked kind of glombed. But

986
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 14: Trump has pulled off all of these trade deals one

987
00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 14: after another. And you know me and Charlie, I'm not

988
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,760
Speaker 14: a big tariff guy, but he's been able to get

989
00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 14: all these countries to give America a freer and fairer

990
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:22,800
Speaker 14: level playing field, which is huge for America's farmers, our manufacturers,

991
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,400
Speaker 14: our car producers, our dairy farmers, our tech companies.

992
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,800
Speaker 3: And I can't keep up with the guy, frankly.

993
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:33,839
Speaker 7: So I want to I want to actually zer in

994
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,120
Speaker 7: on that. You're not a tariff guy, but do you

995
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 7: now think differently about how Trump has used tariffs to

996
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,160
Speaker 7: get into a free trade aim, how tariffs can actually

997
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:45,760
Speaker 7: be a tool. Can you dive into that spend some time, Steve,

998
00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:49,839
Speaker 7: because you're not against tariffs in implementation, but are you

999
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 7: now open to tariffs as a tool towards a freer market?

1000
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,600
Speaker 14: So that's a great question, and so let me, I

1001
00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:00,319
Speaker 14: think we all know if anyone who's an economist knows

1002
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,720
Speaker 14: the trade is what economics is all about.

1003
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:03,320
Speaker 3: Charlie.

1004
00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:06,719
Speaker 14: If you and I trade voluntarily, by definition, we're better off.

1005
00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:09,520
Speaker 14: I give you something you want, you give me something

1006
00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 14: I want. That's the essence of what economics is all about.

1007
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 14: And so you know, Milton Friedman always taught us that

1008
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,000
Speaker 14: free trade is critical, one of the most important things

1009
00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 14: for an economy. But what was happening is we were

1010
00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:25,400
Speaker 14: charging fairly low terriffs and all these other countries, as

1011
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,480
Speaker 14: Trump was saying, we're ripping us off because they were

1012
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 14: charging these very high terrifts. And so what Trump was basically,

1013
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 14: remember he said, oh, We're going to charge fifty percent

1014
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 14: terrafts on these companies countries. That was that was prototypical

1015
00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:41,200
Speaker 14: Donald Trump. He always opens with a big number. And

1016
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 14: that scared the excuse my language, the crap out of

1017
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 14: the Europeans, the Japanese, the Chinese. I mean, they have

1018
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:50,440
Speaker 14: to they have to have access to America's markets because

1019
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,120
Speaker 14: we're the alpha male economy, We're the we're the twenty

1020
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:56,920
Speaker 14: trillion dollar consumer market. And he used these threats of

1021
00:57:56,960 --> 00:58:00,760
Speaker 14: tariffs in a very strategic way to force these countries.

1022
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 7: I mean, do you.

1023
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:03,919
Speaker 14: Remember, Charlie, three months ago when the Europeans said, oh,

1024
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 14: to hell with Trump, We're never going to make a

1025
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:06,440
Speaker 14: deal with him.

1026
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 7: Remember that, Yeah, I do, I do, Yeah, I know

1027
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:11,560
Speaker 7: what happened?

1028
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:16,440
Speaker 14: What happened to keep going? They came to the negotiating table.

1029
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 14: And so it's a perfect example of how Trump uses

1030
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 14: America's He what he's doing, Charlie, is he is flexing

1031
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,880
Speaker 14: America's economic muscle and putting the country first.

1032
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 3: And that has a lot of these Europeans.

1033
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 14: And the Chinese very indignant because you know what it's like,

1034
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:38,720
Speaker 14: we took the Kickney sign off of us.

1035
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 7: Mm hmm, no, that that's exactly right, and so and

1036
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,960
Speaker 7: so steve the the free trade dogma. Though they were

1037
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,840
Speaker 7: so critical of Trump, do you see amongst the intellectuals,

1038
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 7: the intelligentsia at least an admission that Trump was right

1039
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 7: and that his way of proceeding here was correct. Are

1040
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 7: we gonna see any any contrition?

1041
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:04,080
Speaker 3: Good questions?

1042
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 14: A little early to say, but I have I have

1043
00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,560
Speaker 14: to say I've seen a couple of I think it

1044
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 14: was the New York Times of all places, who don't

1045
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:14,120
Speaker 14: quote me on that, it was one of the more

1046
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 14: left leaning publications saying, hey, you know, Trump's policies, say

1047
00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:21,400
Speaker 14: on trade, seem to be working, and I thought, wow,

1048
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 14: that's an admission. But how could you conclude otherwise? We

1049
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,800
Speaker 14: have high growth, we've got a record high stock market.

1050
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:29,800
Speaker 14: We've got eight millions or plus jobs. We've got fairly

1051
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 14: low inflation. It's a little higher than we'd like it

1052
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 14: to be, but fairly low. You've got consumer confidence and

1053
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:38,400
Speaker 14: all time high. You've got business confidence good, I mean, choey,

1054
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:40,720
Speaker 14: point to me one thing that's going wrong.

1055
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, and so that that's actually the good good segue

1056
00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 7: to the question I want to ask, what, if any

1057
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:51,840
Speaker 7: is there an economic metric that has you concern that

1058
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 7: could be a gateway to a recession if not addressed,

1059
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:56,080
Speaker 7: what would happen?

1060
00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 14: You know, I don't want I don't like trade worse,

1061
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 14: So I still worry about that. It keeps me up

1062
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 14: at night. But Trump is winning on these things a

1063
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,600
Speaker 14: country after country. And incidentally, one of the things, again,

1064
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,200
Speaker 14: this is so vintage Trump. I've learned a lot from

1065
01:00:10,320 --> 01:00:13,320
Speaker 14: him just watching him and being around him.

1066
01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 3: So what he's done.

1067
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 14: Is you know when he remember when Liberation Day came out,

1068
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 14: I mean, the market crashed, everybody, Oh my god, the

1069
01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,520
Speaker 14: world's coming to an end. And then what happened is

1070
01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 14: a few of these countries said, hey, we'll make a deal,

1071
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 14: and then a few more countries said maybe we'll make

1072
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:29,560
Speaker 14: a deal. And as more and more countries came to

1073
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 14: the negotiating table, what did that do? It put pressure

1074
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 14: on Japan and put tressure pressure on Korea, put pressure

1075
01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 14: on China and the Europeans, who, as I said, two

1076
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:41,920
Speaker 14: months ago, they said hell, no, we're not going to

1077
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:44,160
Speaker 14: make a deal with you. And there there were yesterday

1078
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,720
Speaker 14: signing on the dotted lines. So Trump is truly a

1079
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:51,560
Speaker 14: master negotiator. I do worry sometimes he might go too

1080
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 14: far on the terrace, but so far it's been a

1081
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 14: home run. You and I both worry about out of

1082
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:58,040
Speaker 14: control government spending.

1083
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,840
Speaker 3: I think the thing that really worries the most totally

1084
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:03,560
Speaker 3: is we have you know, we have a seven trillion

1085
01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 3: dollars budget.

1086
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 14: We you know, I give Trump some credit, they cut

1087
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 14: ten billion out of it.

1088
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,000
Speaker 3: Oh my god. The left went crazy like everybody's gonna die.

1089
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 7: Is outrageous. Actually, on that, I want to keep you

1090
01:01:17,120 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 7: for another segment here, Steve Moore, because I'm afraid that

1091
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:22,120
Speaker 7: if there was any concern that I have, it's a

1092
01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 7: debt crisis. I think that the economy is actually fund

1093
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,800
Speaker 7: them is pretty good. Employment's pretty good, growth is good,

1094
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:30,959
Speaker 7: money velocity is good, consumer spending can get a little better.

1095
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 7: But we could potentially see a debt crisis and I

1096
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:36,840
Speaker 7: want to address that. Stay right there, Steve Moore, Alan

01:03:29,600 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 7: extra loans you take out and they hang with you

1130

1153
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:47,040
Speaker 7: at the Mobile Bitcoin dot Com studio. So Steve, Steve

1154
01:04:47,120 --> 01:04:50,160
Speaker 7: Moore is with us. Steve, I'm not overly concerned about this,

1155
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 7: but can you at least go from a macroeconomic view

1156
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:54,760
Speaker 7: that when we have a debt burden like we have,

1157
01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:58,640
Speaker 7: the only solution we have is growth plus some cuts.

1158
01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:01,120
Speaker 7: We got some cut it's in the one big Beautiful bill.

1159
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:03,560
Speaker 7: I wish we would have gotten even more. But President

1160
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:05,440
Speaker 7: Trump did not get what he wanted. A lot of

1161
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 7: moderate Republicans blocked him. So therefore we have to go

1162
01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 7: all in on growth. Is that is that assessment one

1163
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 7: that you agree with?

1164
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:14,240
Speaker 9: I do?

1165
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:15,000
Speaker 2: I do?

1166
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,320
Speaker 14: And you know the uh, I've been saying this for

1167
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:22,200
Speaker 14: the last five years or so to any Republicans or

1168
01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:24,920
Speaker 14: you know, politicians who will listen, that you know you've

1169
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:26,919
Speaker 14: got we could get if we can get to three

1170
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 14: percent growth.

1171
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 3: You know.

1172
01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 14: In other words, if you look at those scary charts

1173
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 14: that saw the debt going up and up and up

1174
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 14: and up and up into the stratosphere over the next

1175
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:38,520
Speaker 14: thirty years, those are very very frightening numbers. They show

1176
01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 14: our debt going to two hundred percent of GDP, which

1177
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:44,400
Speaker 14: would be ruinous for our country. But they they project

1178
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 14: one point seven percent growth annual.

1179
01:05:46,680 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 3: Well wait to that.

1180
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 14: I say, hell, no, US economy over the last one

1181
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,440
Speaker 14: hundred years has grown at three to three and a

1182
01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:53,560
Speaker 14: half percent per year.

1183
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:55,560
Speaker 3: And Trump gets this.

1184
01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:58,560
Speaker 14: You grow the economy, you get more revenues, you get

1185
01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:02,320
Speaker 14: less people collecting well fairry, you get higher you know,

1186
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:06,480
Speaker 14: payroll taxes from people working. And we saw that by

1187
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 14: the way, you saw what happened in June, didn't you,

1188
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:11,959
Speaker 14: with the with the depths that actually fell in June

1189
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 14: because the economy is doing so well. So you are

1190
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 14: absolutely one hundred percent correct, my friend. If we get

1191
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,520
Speaker 14: to three percent growth and we stay on that path

1192
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:22,120
Speaker 14: which Trump has now put us on, we start bending

1193
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:26,040
Speaker 14: that curved down and over the next thirty years we

1194
01:06:26,080 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 14: actually alleviate the debt crisis.

1195
01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:34,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, and so let's let's let's also put four twenty

1196
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 7: two up on screen. That is the debt. The debt

1197
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 7: will nearly double, That's right, the debt will nearly double

1198
01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:44,240
Speaker 7: in thirty years. And so growth is the path forward. Yes,

1199
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:49,120
Speaker 7: And yet getting getting Congress to be able to agree

1200
01:06:49,160 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 7: to cuts is basically impossible, and I'm sure you can

1201
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:58,280
Speaker 7: agree with that, Steve. They seem so reluctant or recalcitrant

1202
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:02,720
Speaker 7: to be to engage with any spending cuts whatsoever. And

1203
01:07:02,800 --> 01:07:06,560
Speaker 7: so Stephen take the See, let's just kind of broaden

1204
01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 7: this one final time here in the time we have

1205
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:14,240
Speaker 7: remaining that the next eighteen months to two years to

1206
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:18,360
Speaker 7: have proper growth is essential, and if we don't, we

1207
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:22,080
Speaker 7: could have a European sovereign debt crisis.

1208
01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 3: So I'm going to send you a chart, Charlie.

1209
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 14: I'm going to send it to you, and you're a

1210
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,240
Speaker 14: manager who manages this show, and I want you to

1211
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 14: show it down the air tomorrow because I'm going to

1212
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:33,000
Speaker 14: show you.

1213
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 3: That chart you just put it. Can you put that

1214
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 3: chart back up for.

1215
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:39,600
Speaker 14: A minute, yes, okay, because I want people to see

1216
01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:40,680
Speaker 14: that chart's coming back there.

1217
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:41,960
Speaker 3: So here's the thing.

1218
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,120
Speaker 14: I'm going to send you a chart that's a variation

1219
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,000
Speaker 14: of that that shows what happens if you have three

1220
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 14: percent growth. And you know what, that's that chart that's

1221
01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 14: so alarming. It starts to bend down and it goes down.

1222
01:07:53,680 --> 01:07:54,919
Speaker 14: By the way, if we got three and a half

1223
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,720
Speaker 14: percent growth, in thirty years we start paying down the debt.

1224
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,920
Speaker 14: So that's why growth is important. One other quick thing,

1225
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:03,720
Speaker 14: because I know time is tight. It was Ronald Reagan,

1226
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,960
Speaker 14: and I'm very proud of workdro Ronald Reagan. I believe

1227
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:07,880
Speaker 14: he belongs to Mount Rushmore for what he did for

1228
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:10,920
Speaker 14: our country. He used to say that the closest thing

1229
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:12,400
Speaker 14: to immortality on this.

1230
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:15,920
Speaker 3: Earth is a federal government program. And I believe that

1231
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:17,920
Speaker 3: for thirty years. But guess what did you see?

1232
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:21,360
Speaker 14: What happened last week with Trump's recision package. He got

1233
01:08:21,479 --> 01:08:23,960
Speaker 14: rid of twenty programs.

1234
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:25,000
Speaker 19: Mm hmm.

1235
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 7: What else was in that recision program?

1236
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1237
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:33,200
Speaker 7: What else is in that recision package that we should

1238
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:33,479
Speaker 7: know of?

1239
01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:34,240
Speaker 6: Oh?

1240
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:36,479
Speaker 14: We got rid of for the corrupt four and eight.

1241
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:39,080
Speaker 14: You know, we've spent half trillion dollars on four and eight.

1242
01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:41,800
Speaker 14: I don't think it's helped any person except the globalists.

1243
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:44,559
Speaker 14: We got rid of the Remember of the electric vehicle

1244
01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 14: mandate that Giden said everybody has to buy an electric car.

1245

Speaker 14: We got rid of that. We got rid of PBS funding.

1246
01:08:51,120 --> 01:08:53,719
Speaker 14: And by the way, I occasionally watched pgs. I'll watch,

1247
01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:56,559
Speaker 14: but you know what, why can't people want to watch it?

1248
01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:58,800
Speaker 14: Why should they why can't they pay for it? I mean,

1249
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:00,920
Speaker 14: Elmo is one of the richest guys on the planet.

1250
01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:02,080
Speaker 14: I think he's even richer than you.

1251
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:06,960
Speaker 3: And are we to being so?

1252
01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:09,479
Speaker 14: We got rid of that, We got rid of all

1253
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:12,000
Speaker 14: these programs you've never even heard of, all these global this,

1254
01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:12,960
Speaker 14: global that.

1255
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:13,679
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah.

1256
01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:16,400
Speaker 14: Why are we spending sending all this money abroad when

1257
01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:18,400
Speaker 14: we don't have We can't pay our bills here at home.

1258
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:22,599
Speaker 7: Yeah, And by the way, NPR got a surgeon. Private

Speaker 7: Thank you so much, Steve, really appreciate it.

1278

Speaker 7: We'll be right.

1279
01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:28,320
Speaker 17: Back bye between Trump and the Federal Reserve, putting us

1280
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,280
Speaker 17: all behind the curve yet again, can the Fed take

1281
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:33,800
Speaker 17: the right action at the right time or are we

1282
01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:37,080
Speaker 17: going to be looking at a problem economically with a slowdown?

1283
01:10:37,439 --> 01:10:40,559
Speaker 17: And what does this all mean for your savings? Well,

1284
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,960
Speaker 17: you may want to consider diversifying with gold through the

1285
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 17: Birch Gold Group. For decades, gold has been viewed as

1286
01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:50,200
Speaker 17: a safe haven in times of economic stagnation, global uncertainty,

1287
01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:53,720
Speaker 17: and high inflation. The Birch Gold Group makes it incredibly

1288
01:10:53,760 --> 01:10:57,520
Speaker 17: easy for you to diversify some of your savings into gold.

1289
01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:00,280
Speaker 17: If you have an IRA or four to one, hey,

1290
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:03,080
Speaker 17: you can now convert that into a tax sheltered I

1291
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:05,880
Speaker 17: ray in physical gold, or you can just buy some

1292
01:11:05,960 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 17: gold and keep it in your safe First, get educated,

1293
01:11:09,479 --> 01:11:11,519
Speaker 17: though the Birch Gold Group will send you a free

1294
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,920
Speaker 17: information kit on gold. All you have to do is

1295
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,880
Speaker 17: text the word America to the number ninety eight ninety

1296
01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:19,720
Speaker 17: eight ninety eight. Again, text the word America to the

1297
01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:23,400
Speaker 17: number ninety eight ninety eight ninety eight. Consider diversifying a

1298
01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:26,400
Speaker 17: portion of your savings into gold. That way, if the

1299
01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 17: Fed can't stay ahead of the curb for their country,

1300
01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:31,920
Speaker 17: at least you can stay ahead for yourself.

1301
01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:40,200
Speaker 4: Terrence Bates here with your Real America's Voice.

1302
01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:42,920
Speaker 17: News break as the deadline to reach a trade deal

1303
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:45,960
Speaker 17: with President Trump or face that thirty percent tariff is

1304
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:49,920
Speaker 17: just days away. The Trump administration is celebrating another economic

1305
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:51,000
Speaker 17: victory this morning.

1306
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 4: It turns out the.

1307
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:55,800
Speaker 17: US gross domestic product grew by three percent during the

1308
01:11:55,840 --> 01:11:58,599
Speaker 17: second quarter of this year after shrinking by a half

1309
01:11:58,640 --> 01:12:01,880
Speaker 17: percent during the previews quarter. It's a win for the

1310
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:05,559
Speaker 17: Trump administration and a potential sign that the president's tariff

1311
01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:09,719
Speaker 17: policies are working. Market experts point to a thirty percent

1312
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:13,519
Speaker 17: decline in imports, an increase in consumer spending, and a

1313
01:12:13,640 --> 01:12:17,800
Speaker 17: rebound in government spending. The US Bureau of Economic Analysis

1314
01:12:17,800 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 17: says on average, American workers' salaries are also going up

1315
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:25,559
Speaker 17: year to year. Wages were up almost five percent compared

1316
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:29,800
Speaker 17: to the same time last year. Tsunami advisors remain in

1317
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 17: effect for parts of the West Coast, spanning California, Oregon,

1318
01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 17: and Washington State. A warning for Hawaii has now been lifted. Still,

1319
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 17: people along the coast are being warned to be on

1320
01:12:41,560 --> 01:12:45,599

1364
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:23,439
Speaker 21: I posted a joking meme in the twenty sixteen election

1365
01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 21: cycle saying that you could text your vote for Hillary Clinton,

1366
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:30,880
Speaker 21: stay home, avoid the line blah blah blah. And I

1367
01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,560
Speaker 21: found this meme on four Chan and just shared it

1368
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:36,880
Speaker 21: thought it was funny. Four years later, two days after

1369
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:41,200
Speaker 21: Joe Biden was inaugurated, they got a warrant from my rs.

1370
01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:44,080
Speaker 21: Seven days after Joe Biden was inaugurated, I got the

1371
01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 21: knock on the door from the FBI. I got arrested.

1372
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:50,640
Speaker 21: I was convicted in twenty twenty three for a conspiracy

1373
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 21: against rights for posting this meme. The judge said I

1374
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,679
Speaker 21: should report to prison on January eighteenth of twenty twenty four,

1375
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:01,640
Speaker 21: We had to go to the appeals court just to

1376
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:04,040
Speaker 21: get a bond, saying that I should at least be

1377
01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 21: able to wait for the appeal to go to prison

1378
01:16:06,479 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 21: for posting a funny meme. They claimed it was a

1379
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:14,880
Speaker 21: conspiracy to steal people's votes, against their rights, And we

1380
01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 21: had a very strong appeal and a great legal team,

1381
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 21: including Jones Day attorneys, and we just got the news

1382
01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:25,400
Speaker 21: a few weeks back that we won the case. And

1383
01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:27,960
Speaker 21: the reason is because the government brought a case with

1384
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 21: insufficient evidence and no rational jury should have convicted me

1385
01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 21: on these charges. Maybe that's why they brought it in Brooklyn,

1386
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 21: New York, which is one of the most diverse and

1387
01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,559
Speaker 21: liberal left leaning districts in the country, even though there

1388
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:44,680
Speaker 21: was no connection to Brooklyn. So I'm extremely grateful to

1389
01:16:44,720 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 21: be vindicated and very grateful for all the support I've

1390
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:52,040
Speaker 21: gotten from everybody, from my family, friends, and the media

1391
01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:52,479
Speaker 21: of course.

1392
01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:57,880
Speaker 7: So I mean this is important. I mean telling jokes

1393
01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:00,479
Speaker 7: is a crime. It was in the Soviet Union, political

1394
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:02,519
Speaker 7: jokes under Stalin could land you in a gulag for

1395
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:07,920
Speaker 7: ten years. In Nazi Germany, laughter was basically treason. Jokes

1396
01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:11,479
Speaker 7: about Hitler were considered acts of treason and defeatist humor.

1397
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:15,280
Speaker 7: North Korea, comedy doesn't exist jigiping. They have a ban

1398
01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:19,879
Speaker 7: in China on the Winnie the Pooh meme. You cannot

1399
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 7: use the Winnie the Pooh meme in China. It's true,

1400
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 7: all Winnie the Pooh imagery of jijiping has been banned

1401
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:30,120
Speaker 7: from the Internet. Memes, jokes or cartoons using the likeness

1402
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 7: of Jigiping, as Winnie the Pooh is banned. In Iran,

1403
01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,280
Speaker 7: humor is blasphemy, jokes about religion and the ietol or

1404
01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 7: modesty can lead to imprisonment. Cuba, well, only one part

1405
01:17:41,080 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 7: of humor only. You can only have shows critical of America,

1406
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:48,320
Speaker 7: but not of the regime. Venezuela comedians whom Mackshavas er

1407
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,240
Speaker 7: Maduro were threatened, censored or sometimes the enforced into exile

1408
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,840
Speaker 7: in East Germany. Stossian whisper jokes. Same thing in Saudi

1409
01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:58,440
Speaker 7: Arabia or Turkey. This is a this is a primary

1410
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,760
Speaker 7: attribute of a totalent Harryan country, James, I want you

1411
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:04,519
Speaker 7: to come in here. You're managing partner at King Street Legal.

1412
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:08,120
Speaker 7: You represented Douglas. Douglas James, what did you learn about

1413
01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:13,040
Speaker 7: the government their case and the over extension of government

1414
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:14,559
Speaker 7: power during Douglas's story.

1415
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:17,439
Speaker 20: Yeah, so, I mean there's like three things I think

1416
01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 20: are worth highlighting. So the first is just I want

1417
01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,479
Speaker 20: to emphasize the timeline because the timeline in this case

1418
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:26,720
Speaker 20: is really, really deeply offensive. Doug sent the meme in

1419
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:30,360
Speaker 20: the twenty sixteen election. That's the Hillary Clinton election. Okay,

1420
01:18:30,640 --> 01:18:33,639
Speaker 20: the Justice Department lawyers in Brooklyn did whatever they did

1421
01:18:33,640 --> 01:18:36,960
Speaker 20: for the entirety of the Trump administration. They investigated it whatever.

1422
01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:40,320
Speaker 20: They waited until the second day of the Biden administration

1423
01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:44,880
Speaker 20: to send a team of armed federal agents, guns, the jackets,

1424
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:49,240
Speaker 20: the works. Maximum intimidation. They don't normally arrest non violent

1425
01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:52,519
Speaker 20: offenders in real cases, let alone fake cases. They send

1426
01:18:52,520 --> 01:18:55,479
Speaker 20: a team of armed people to arrest Doug on the

1427
01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:57,840
Speaker 20: second day of the Biden administration. You know, you talk

1428
01:18:57,880 --> 01:19:02,600
Speaker 20: about totalitarian regimes into talitarian tactics. That is maximum intimidation.

1429
01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:03,680
Speaker 3: Biden won.

1430
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 20: Now you're screwed, We're coming after you.

1431
01:19:06,320 --> 01:19:07,080
Speaker 1: That meme is.

1432
01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:08,840
Speaker 3: Making fun of Hillary, and that's not accessible.

1433
01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:11,320
Speaker 20: So I just think that timeline is so important. On

1434
01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:15,360
Speaker 20: the substance, Look, the theory of the case is ludicrous theory.

1435
01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:18,360
Speaker 20: They charged Doug under a statute that said that that

1436
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:21,240
Speaker 20: was passed after the Civil War to deal with you know,

1437
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:25,920
Speaker 20: the ku Klux Klan blockading polling places in Alabama or

1438
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:30,080
Speaker 20: whatever lots of people conspire to forcibly deny the right

1439
01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:33,400
Speaker 20: to vote. Okay, they did not pass the statute about memes.

1440
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:37,559
Speaker 20: Americans have a constitutional right to send memes. Our founding

1441
01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,600
Speaker 20: fathers and the Revolutionary generation were powered by memes. The

1442
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:42,439
Speaker 20: Gats and Flag is the most one of the most

1443
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:47,360
Speaker 20: famous memes in American history. And so process and substance

1444
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,080
Speaker 20: just a horrible tragedy. And then the last thing I

1445
01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:52,080
Speaker 20: want to say, just because I think it's a fun fact.

1446
01:19:52,560 --> 01:19:55,000
Speaker 20: The lawyer who actually won Doug's appeal in the second

1447
01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:57,560
Speaker 20: Circuit my former partner at Jones Day. I used to

1448
01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:59,920
Speaker 20: work there, Yakov Roth, is now the number two of

1449
01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 20: in the Civil Division at the Justice Department. So the

1450
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:06,799
Speaker 20: President has brought in the people who overturned this injustice

1451
01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:09,120
Speaker 20: and now they're working for him to defend him against

1452
01:20:09,160 --> 01:20:11,480
Speaker 20: all the people who are trying to stop his administration

1453
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:12,840
Speaker 20: from making America great again.

1454
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,680
Speaker 7: So, Douglas, what did this do to you personally? I

1455
01:20:16,680 --> 01:20:18,720
Speaker 7: mean you again, you had the Feds come raid you

1456
01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:21,080
Speaker 7: and come after you right after Biden wins and James

1457
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:24,160
Speaker 7: is exactly right. This is Moscow show trial stuff. It's

1458
01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:27,400
Speaker 7: all about intimidation, show of force, trying to make an example.

1459
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:29,599
Speaker 7: If you dare criticize the regime, we will raid your

1460
01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:32,200
Speaker 7: home and we'll put you in jail. Douglas, what did

1461
01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:36,080
Speaker 7: this do to you personally, the demoralization campaign. All you

1462
01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:38,759
Speaker 7: did was share a funny meme and you were facing

1463
01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:40,400
Speaker 7: federal prison time. Douglas.

1464
01:20:41,680 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 21: Yet, this has been the most difficult thing I've had

1465
01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:47,040
Speaker 21: to endure of my life. You can imagine the effect

1466
01:20:47,240 --> 01:20:51,000
Speaker 21: had on myself but also my friends and family seeing

1467
01:20:51,000 --> 01:20:53,840
Speaker 21: me get arrested, and then it's on the news. They

1468
01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:56,200
Speaker 21: leaked it to Rachel Maddow. I wonder how that happened,

1469
01:20:56,520 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 21: so she led with it on her broadcast, so you

1470
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:03,160
Speaker 21: can only and all the people. Unfortunately, as they saw

1471
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:05,599
Speaker 21: the facts of the case, they realized that I was innocent.

1472
01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:10,440
Speaker 21: But you can imagine federal criminal case, millions of dollars

1473
01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:13,360
Speaker 21: of legal fees. I didn't have any ability to pay,

1474
01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 21: so how in the world am I going to pay

1475
01:21:15,040 --> 01:21:18,400
Speaker 21: for this? Very fortunate that the American people rallied around

1476
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:20,360
Speaker 21: me and helped me find the case. But even that,

1477
01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:22,639
Speaker 21: I still owe a lot of money on this case.

1478
01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:26,320
Speaker 21: Those bills have not been paid in full, and it

1479
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:28,679
Speaker 21: goes the list goes on and on, the stress of myself,

1480
01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:32,360
Speaker 21: my wife, who we got married during the middle of

1481
01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:35,439
Speaker 21: the case because we said, look, we can't wait forever

1482
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:37,759
Speaker 21: to get buried. Who knows this could take ten years.

1483
01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:40,400
Speaker 21: So we got buried. Then right after we got the

1484
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:40,960
Speaker 21: marriage date.

1485
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 7: Then we hear the.

1486
01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:46,120
Speaker 21: Trial is going to be like six weeks after the wedding.

1487
01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:48,760
Speaker 21: How's that for a honeymoon. I found out that my

1488
01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:51,920
Speaker 21: wife was pregnant at the veried beginning of the trial,

1489
01:21:52,479 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 21: and I was sentenced later that year in October, and

1490
01:21:56,680 --> 01:22:00,920
Speaker 21: so my wife was hospitalized with the difficult pregnancy. I

1491
01:22:00,960 --> 01:22:02,760
Speaker 21: had to leave her at the hospital, jump on an

1492
01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:05,920
Speaker 21: airplane to go to my trial, excuse me, my sentencing.

1493
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:08,639
Speaker 21: As soon as I touched down in Brooklyn, New York,

1494
01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:11,080
Speaker 21: because I live in Florida. Now I get the news

1495
01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:13,760
Speaker 21: that she has to have an emergency c section eight

1496
01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:14,519
Speaker 21: pm that night.

1497
01:22:14,600 --> 01:22:15,080
Speaker 7: Can't wait.

1498
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,600
Speaker 21: So I had no choice but to just go to

1499
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:21,400
Speaker 21: the sentencing in the morning and then go after to

1500
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 21: see my wife and new baby son. And it was

1501
01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:26,800
Speaker 21: extremely difficult. We were in the hospital for months in

1502
01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 21: the nick you all, while dealing with a federal criminal case.

1503
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:32,640
Speaker 21: We had no idea if this I was going to

1504
01:22:32,680 --> 01:22:34,760
Speaker 21: have to report to prison. We had to, like I said,

1505
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:36,800
Speaker 21: get a bond. And you can imagine how much money

1506
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:40,559
Speaker 21: it costs just to appeal a bond and to have

1507
01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 21: this swimming over my head for so long is extremely stressful.

1508
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:48,639
Speaker 21: And the personal costs. Imagine all the people who think

1509
01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 21: that I'm the kind of guy who would go steal

1510
01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:54,919
Speaker 21: people's votes, I mean the defamation. So it's been extremely costly.

1511
01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 7: Yeah, and so James, what now is the the legal

1512
01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:03,800
Speaker 7: path forward? Is Douglas suing the federal government because this

1513
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 7: seems like malicious prosecution?

1514
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:10,160
Speaker 20: Yeah? Absolutely so. Justice for Doug has sort of two components.

1515
01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:12,679
Speaker 20: The first one is to try the best we can

1516
01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:15,120
Speaker 20: to get the government to make Doug hole for what

1517
01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:17,400
Speaker 20: happened to him. You know, no amount of money can

1518
01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 20: ever give him those years of his life back, but

1519
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 20: hopefully we can at least get him some justice by

1520
01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:25,280
Speaker 20: suing the government. Process wise, the way that works, the

1521
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 20: district court is going to issue a definitive dismissal of

1522
01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:30,639
Speaker 20: the case. Soon he won the appeal, it comes back,

1523
01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 20: the case goes away, and then we go to the

1524
01:23:32,600 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 20: Justice Department and we file the claim on Doug's behalf

1525
01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:37,839
Speaker 20: with the Department. I have every confidence that the Attorney

1526
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:40,840
Speaker 20: Attorney General Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Blanche, and the rest

1527
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 20: of the great Justice Department team are going to want

1528
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:45,240
Speaker 20: to make this right and make things hole for Doug.

1529
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 20: So that's one part. But then the other part is

1530
01:23:47,400 --> 01:23:49,840
Speaker 20: making sure that there's accountability for the people that did

1531
01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 20: this to him so that it never happens to anybody again.

1532
01:23:53,600 --> 01:23:55,799
Speaker 20: And so that means making sure that there's a proper

1533
01:23:55,960 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 20: investigation into what happened. You know, we don't know what

1534
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 20: happened here. The defendants and criminal cases have very few

1535
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 20: tools to get information from the government. So we need

1536
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:05,800
Speaker 20: to work with the Justice Department to do a real

1537
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:09,680
Speaker 20: internal investigation into what happened here. Was it all politics,

1538
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:11,480
Speaker 20: was it just malevolent prosecutors?

1539
01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:12,320
Speaker 4: What happened?

1540
01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 20: And then we need to find ways to hold them accountable,

1541
01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:16,679
Speaker 20: and that could include suing them personally, it could include

1542
01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:19,640
Speaker 20: misconduct complaints with the department. And we're not going to

1543
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:22,160
Speaker 20: stop at anything until we both made this right for

1544
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,439
Speaker 20: Doug and done everything we can to make sure that

1545
01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:27,000
Speaker 20: this never happens again in the United States.

1546
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:32,519

1630
01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:16,439
Speaker 7: kind of goofy, to be honest with you, I kind

1631
01:29:16,439 --> 01:29:18,400
Speaker 7: of skimmed it, and the fact that it's gone viral

1632
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 7: is just so stunning. So apparently an actress by the

1633
01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:27,479
Speaker 7: name of Sidney Sweeney did a advertisement for American Eagle

1634
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,559
Speaker 7: Jeans and they did something kind of you know, lighthearted. Oh,

1635
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,439
Speaker 7: she has great jeans and while she was wearing jeans, Okay,

1636
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:37,520
Speaker 7: and everyone lost their mind now calling this Nazi propaganda,

1637
01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:42,960
Speaker 7: saying that this is fascism if you like Sydney Sweeny

1638
01:29:43,600 --> 01:29:46,920
Speaker 7: wearing jeans. Now, first of all, the idea of like

1639
01:29:47,040 --> 01:29:49,360
Speaker 7: genes mattering, isn't that the entire idea of twenty three

1640
01:29:49,400 --> 01:29:51,320
Speaker 7: and meter and ancestree dot com haven't we had this

1641
01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:55,559
Speaker 7: entire like mass proliferation of you spit into a thing

1642
01:29:55,560 --> 01:29:57,080
Speaker 7: and you come back and you find out all about

1643
01:29:57,120 --> 01:29:59,400
Speaker 7: your gens. But now you can't talk about gens because

1644
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 7: that's you, Jennic. This is good Morning America. They've made this.

1645
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:05,240
Speaker 7: You want to know why young men are moving right,

1646
01:30:06,280 --> 01:30:09,080
Speaker 7: because young men like, Oh wow, I like Sidney Sweeney

1647
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:11,040
Speaker 7: or whatever. You know some of these gen z men.

1648
01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 7: You're a fascist? Oh really, You're gonna call young men

1649
01:30:13,960 --> 01:30:17,559
Speaker 7: a fascist? The best way I could put this, let's

1650
01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:19,040
Speaker 7: play cut four to twenty five, and I'll give you

1651
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:21,439
Speaker 7: an example. For twenty five, we begin with.

1652
01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:24,800
Speaker 22: The backlash of our new ad campaign featuring actress Sidney Sweeney.

1653
01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:27,479
Speaker 23: The ads are for American Eagle and the tagline is

1654
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:30,800
Speaker 23: Sidney Sweeney has great Genes Now. In one ad, the

1655
01:30:30,840 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 23: blonde hair, blue eyed actress talks about genes as in DNA,

1656
01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:35,719
Speaker 23: being passed down from her parents.

1657
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:40,520
Speaker 22: The play on words is being compared to Nazi propaganda

1658
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:42,400
Speaker 22: with racial undertones.

1659
01:30:43,800 --> 01:30:50,120
Speaker 15: The pun good genes activates a troubling historical associations for

1660
01:30:50,240 --> 01:30:54,320
Speaker 15: this country, the American eugenics movement, and it's prime between

1661
01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:58,280
Speaker 15: like nineteen hundred and nineteen forty weaponized the idea of

1662
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:02,799
Speaker 15: good genes just to justify white supremacism.

1663
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:06,360
Speaker 23: Despite that backlash, American Eaglestock has been soreing.

1664
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:11,599
Speaker 7: I mean, you want to know why young men are

1665
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:14,479
Speaker 7: moving to the right. Here they are in ABC with

1666
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:19,080
Speaker 7: some old crow saying that this is pushing forward eugenicism.

1667
01:31:20,520 --> 01:31:22,519
Speaker 7: I want to just for those in the older audience,

1668
01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:24,439
Speaker 7: imagine if they would have done this with like brook

1669
01:31:24,479 --> 01:31:27,960
Speaker 7: Shields or Kathy Ireland thirty or forty years ago. And

1670
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:30,599
Speaker 7: the entire left is losing their mind. They're saying that

1671
01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:35,639
Speaker 7: Sidney Sweeney is Nazi propaganda. And honestly the ad was like, okay,

1672
01:31:35,680 --> 01:31:39,040
Speaker 7: it wasn't like that unique. It's not nowhere close to offensive.

1673
01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:42,040
Speaker 7: They did the same ad with Brooks Shields. But we

1674
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:45,240
Speaker 7: now have a bunch of what I call the Subaroo Gang.

1675
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:48,880
Speaker 7: You know what I mean by the Subaru Gang. Play

1676
01:31:48,880 --> 01:31:52,000
Speaker 7: cut for twenty seven chief Leader. She is the grand

1677
01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:55,519
Speaker 7: Marshal of the Subaru Gang. Play cut for twenty seven.

1678
01:31:56,160 --> 01:31:58,479
Speaker 24: Should we be surprised that a company whose name is

1679
01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:02,439
Speaker 24: literally American Eagle is making fascist propaganda like this?

1680
01:32:02,960 --> 01:32:05,919
Speaker 4: Probably not, but it's still really shocking.

1681
01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:11,280
Speaker 24: Like a blonde haired, blue eyed, white woman is talking

1682
01:32:11,360 --> 01:32:17,519
Speaker 24: about her good gens like that is Nazi propaganda.

1683
01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:19,679
Speaker 9: Right.

1684
01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:22,439
