My name is Brett Witterbolt. 6 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 2: Typically you hear me over at Charlotte's FM News Talk 7 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 2: one oh seven point nine WBT in the Queen City. 8 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 2: I've always looked to try to find where the King is, 9 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 2: but he's not around. The Queen City is around, and 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 2: it is great to be with you. Telephone number if 11 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 2: you wish to oppine eight hundred and two two two 12 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: eight eight to two. So we had this great conversation 13 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 2: going on in the beginning hour, and I'm sure you 14 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 2: probably be able to pick it up on a podcast, 15 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: et cetera. But here's the thing that I think is 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 2: hugely important. I'm old enough to remember when there was 17 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: a Berlin Wall. Many of you remember the Berlin Wall. 18 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: Many of you people remember the Soviet Menace and all 19 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: this sort of stuff that existed back in a different time, 20 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: in a different place, And I'm old enough to remember that. Well, 21 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: we just had to live side by side with evil 22 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 2: and good, us being good, the Kakami's being evil, and 23 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: a very interesting thing happened. Once upon a time in 24 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: about nineteen ninety, the wall started to crack. It was 25 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 2: eighty nine into ninety the wall started to crack. People 26 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 2: started to decide, we want to be a part of 27 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: the European experience of the free part of the countryside. 28 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 2: And lo and behold it happened. But remember, if you're 29 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: in the same sort of age run that I'm in 30 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: that many of you are in, it seemed like it 31 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 2: would never happen. It seemed like it would never occur, 32 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: like we were going to be stuck with this forever. 33 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 2: And I mean, I remember, I remember a Kennedy going 34 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 2: and trying to cut a deal with the Soviets, saying, yeah, 35 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: we've got to get rid of Ronald Reagan. You guys 36 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: remember that story. You remember all of that sixty minutes 37 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 2: was going to give all this loving coverage to the 38 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: vicious people there in the Soviet Union. I remember that. 39 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: You remember that you knew about that. And they decided 40 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 2: that they were going to side with the Soviets and 41 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: not side with the American people who had elected Ronald 42 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 2: Wilson Reagan. And you know, what is so interesting I 43 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: told you at the terminus of that last segment, in 44 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: that first hour, I told you that that Sherman gave 45 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: as a gift to A. Raham Lincoln the city of 46 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: Savannah in eighteen sixty four. It also happens that this 47 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: is a historic date, a historic place, a historic issue 48 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: that we can look at as well, because it was 49 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 2: about this time, in that time that the walls came down, 50 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 2: and people said it was going to be impossible, and 51 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:34,519 Speaker 2: people said it could never happen. It took one thing, resolve. Resolve. 52 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: It took the notion of not playing games, not appeasing, 53 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 2: not sucking up to any of the Soviet leaders. It 54 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: took resolve. It took a pope, it took a president, 55 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 2: and it took a prime minister. And oh, by the way, Lec. 56 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: Willenza was a very instrumental person and who was out 57 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: there in the Goadansk shipyards saying, we have got to 58 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 2: fight for our freedom. We have got to fight. This 59 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: is the challenge of our time. There's an old commercial 60 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 2: that ran decades ago, and it was about a product 61 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: and they said, all you got to do is set 62 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: it and forget it. The problem with freedom, the problem 63 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 2: with achieving important aims is you cannot set it and 64 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: forget it. You have got to sit there and you've 65 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: got to continuously persuade people, talk to people, engage people. 66 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 2: Because the other side and you know what the other 67 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: side is, and you know what the other side is selling, 68 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: and you understand what the other side is trying to do. 69 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 2: They they are going to go to work twenty four 70 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 2: to seven, three sixty five period, full stop. And that 71 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: that is something we can do. That is something we 72 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: should not do because because freedom is the goal. And 73 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 2: so when you look at this and you say to yourself, Okay, 74 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: how do we do this? What must we do? Well, 75 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 2: I'm going to reach out and take a call right 76 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: out of the box here and I'm going to go 77 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: to Tommy in Connecticut. Tommy, welcome to the program. 78 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:38,599 Speaker 3: Oh hi, great, great, great man and tremendous. But we 79 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 3: have to look at a lot of things that are 80 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 3: going on in this country. I'll give you an example. 81 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: It's going to be two years in February, we lost 82 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 3: a young lady, a strong young lady by the name 83 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 3: of Lake and Riley. 84 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 4: She was murdered. 85 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,359 Speaker 3: She wanted to be a nurse, practitioner. Yes, sir, a 86 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 3: Brown University. We lost the beautiful young lady who wanted 87 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 3: to be a surgeon, Ella Wood. So they're now killing 88 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: and murdering the best of our young Americans as this 89 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 3: country gets invaded. And I personally really believe that it's 90 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: about time with the sixty five Immigration Actors addressed and 91 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 3: is appealed by the Congress and then just getting rid 92 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 3: of because. 93 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 4: Even with these visas. 94 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: I've been out to the airport a few times out 95 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 3: of MOE vacation. 96 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 5: I see people coming in. There aren't tourist visas. They're 97 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 5: coming in with these giant bags of luggage. Who go's 98 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 5: on vacation with four or five giant bags and luggage. 99 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 5: Those are people coming here who don't want to leave 100 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 5: this country. So listen, if we don't do anything about it, 101 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 5: because in line, Omar is not going to be she's 102 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 5: not going to be deported. She's gonna be in charge 103 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 5: of the largest atomic arsenal of weapons on the planet 104 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 5: in the United States America. 105 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 3: When she becomes powerful with well, well. 106 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, because she's not but she's not. 107 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: She can't, she can't run for president. She wasn't born 108 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: in the United States, she's not going to be. But well, 109 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: let me just take a take you at at that 110 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 2: at that point right there. Okay, and I do appreciate 111 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 2: the call, Tommy. Look, we have got to understand that 112 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 2: you have to tell people what the plan is going 113 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 2: to be. You have to reflect in that plan, how 114 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: it's going to be delivered, and how it is then 115 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 2: it is being maintained. That's the only three things that 116 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: you have to do. 117 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 4: Now. 118 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 2: I know you were saying earlier on that you wanted 119 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 2: to get rid of the filibuster. Well, fill that is 120 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 2: certainly a potential thing that you could do. Absolutely, and 121 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: we have to be ready though, if you do get 122 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: rid of the filibuster, that we go and sit back 123 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: and we say, okay, well, then we've gotten rid of 124 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 2: the filibuster. We have to hope that the Democrats are 125 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 2: not going to take over, because you know full well 126 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: they will explode spending, they will explode the size of 127 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court, they will explode, you know, explode everything 128 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: of those that you do not necessarily want to have 129 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: happened in the United States. And so that's the difficulty. 130 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 2: It's the same sort of thing that I was just 131 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 2: talking about with Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher and the 132 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: Pope and Equalensa taking the reins of power and saying, listen, 133 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 2: we have got to stop the evil that is in 134 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: this country, and we are going to get rid of 135 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: the evil that is across the way. But it takes work. 136 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 2: You have to persuade people. Immigration. Let's be honest, Immigration 137 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: is being handled very effectively right now by the way 138 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: the Trump administration is doing. You've got a bunch of 139 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: judges saying you can't, you can't put these people deported. 140 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: You can't do those sorts of things. But those are 141 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: people that we have to deal with. Then we have 142 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: to figure out, Okay, let's pass legislation, let's do these 143 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: sorts of things that have to happen. But by and large, 144 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: the border is secure at the Mexican border, and now 145 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: you have to go through the process of trying to 146 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,080 Speaker 2: figure out who's still in the country and who shouldn't 147 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 2: be in the nation. And unfortunately, in blue cities, blue 148 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 2: you know, blue areas, they're going to continue to push 149 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 2: for this. Why because when Joe Biden opened the border 150 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: back into in twenty twenty one, he decided we were 151 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 2: going to bring more people into this country because we 152 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 2: need a permanent underclass. It's why they all went to 153 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 2: blue cities. It's why they all went to the blue 154 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: areas and they said, Okay, we're gonna go over there 155 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 2: and we're gonna backfill for the teachers' unions and all 156 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 2: of those sorts of things. But when you get down 157 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: to brass tax and you look at what Trump's been 158 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 2: able to do in that regard, that's a big win. 159 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: It's very much in line with with all the other 160 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: things that he's been doing. Now he is beginning in 161 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: earnest to try to fix the problems down south of 162 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: the border, further south, much further south in Venezuela. And 163 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 2: now this is where the rubber meets the road. And 164 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: that is why, that is why you want to see 165 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 2: an aggressive stance, and you're seeing it with Donald Trump. 166 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 2: What Trump is doing.

Now, we're going to see 169 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: that Cuba is going to get starved of oil because 170 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 2: of what's happening with the with the with the different 171 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 2: things that are coming up out of Venezuela number one, 172 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: Number two, China is going to be over a barrel literally, 173 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: and Iran is going to be starved for oil for 174 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 2: the money that is coming into the coffers. This is 175 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 2: systemically important because that is how you get to breaking 176 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 2: the grip of the communist menace in Venezuela and beyond. 177 00:10:55,240 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: Remember when Hugo Chavez took over in Venezuela, he voided 178 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: all of our rights to explore for oil that we 179 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 2: paid for.

D 204 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 2: n I Tolsi gabbered at TPUSA talking about the threats 205 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 2: we face. 206 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,400 Speaker 7: Go there's a threat to our freedom that is not 207 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 7: often talked about enough, and it is the greatest near 208 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 7: and long term threat to both our freedom and our security, 209 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 7: and that is the threat of Islamist ideology. It is 210 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 7: propagated by people who not only do not believe in freedom, 211 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 7: they're fundamental ideology is antithetical to the foundation that we 212 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 7: find in our Constitution and Bill of Rights, which is 213 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 7: that our Creator endowed upon us in alienable rights, the 214 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 7: right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. So 215 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 7: Charlie focused on this quite a bit. He talked about 216 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 7: it in ways that very few others did because he 217 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 7: understood this direct threat to freedom. 218 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 2: So let me give you just a glimpse, just a 219 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 2: glimpse of something that is downright remarkable. And this is 220 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,479 Speaker 2: not this is not fake, This is not you know, nonsense, 221 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 2: this is real. What if I told you this is 222 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 2: going to be Cut seven? Mic Syrian Christians went out 223 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 2: and protested in Syria yesterday. Now remember this is a 224 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 2: place where by and large Islam rules the roost. They 225 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 2: got so ready to do this they were playing church 226 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 2: bells in Syria. Now you know, and I know if 227 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 2: you're familiar with Islam, they do not want bells rung. 228 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: They don't want any of that to be respected. That 229 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: there is a very different sort of an ideology here. 230 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 2: But listen to this. This is cut seven. Obviously, these 231 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 2: are people who are chanting and carrying crosses and doing 232 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: all the things you would expect in a religious procession 233 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: in Syria. 234 00:14:42,240 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 8: Cut seven. 235 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: That reminds me of what we saw when the wall 236 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 2: came down against the Communists. These are people who took 237 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: their lives in their hands and understood very clearly that 238 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 2: they have a right written on their heart to defend 239 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: the faith, the faith that was there before Syria was 240 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: an Islamic country. That is something that is incredible. See, 241 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: it's easy to be demoralized. It's easy to say we 242 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 2: can't do it, it's impossible, we can't get it done. 243 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, we can. We can. All it takes. 244 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 2: All it takes is for us to recognize that we 245 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 2: are in charge of our own destinies. And it's not easy, 246 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 2: and it's not free, and it's not any of that. 247 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 2: What it is in front of us right now is vision. 248 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: It's vision, it's belief, and it's understanding that what's right 249 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 2: is right and wrong is wrong. We've got plenty more 250 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 2: straight ahead. It's a pleasure to be with you. I'm 251 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 2: Brett Witterbule. You're in.

I know it may 336 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 11: have been talked about it, maybe not. My biggest concern 337 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 11: right now is we've got so many politicians that have 338 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 11: went into Congress and they've all become wealthy. I'm a 339 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 11: common tax payer, worked my whole life, never been to jail, 340 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 11: never got in any trouble, always did things the right way. 341 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 11: Believe me the irs. If I don't pay them twelve 342 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 11: dollars and eighty three cent, I get a letter. So 343 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 11: accountability to me seems to be the biggest problem that 344 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 11: we have in our society right now, because we don't 345 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 11: as citizens. I don't think people know who to believe 346 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 11: and not believe. I know that our framers that developed 347 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 11: the Constitution. 348 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 4: They were all. 349 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 11: Business owners, engineers, people that had already made wealth, and 350 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,639 Speaker 11: all they wanted to do was create a society that 351 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 11: was a better mean for our society. But somewhere in 352 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 11: the translation between getting to Congress and being representatives went 353 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 11: away from trying to help people as opposed to them 354 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,200 Speaker 11: lining their own pockets. Now I'm not saying it's one 355 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 11: side to the other, but sure if they can audit 356 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 11: me for twelve dollars and eighty three cent, goodness, they 357 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 11: can audit somebody who has now amassed a thirty million 358 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 11: dollar bank account for being a representative in Minnesota. And 359 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 11: that's that's my question. But again, those things, you know, 360 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,360 Speaker 11: just kind of spike me, that's all. 361 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: You're exactly No, no, everything you just said I co signed absolutely, 362 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: because here's the problem. Once upon a time, and thank 363 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 2: you for the call, Mike at North Carolina. Once upon 364 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 2: a time, and it wasn't really that far long ago. 365 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 2: The vision for being a citizen in Congress person or 366 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: a senator. But obviously, remember the senators used to be 367 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 2: picked by their governments to send them to Washington, d C. 368 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 2: Now we get direct election, and I think that's a 369 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 2: huge part of the problem that exists. Once upon a 370 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: time it was this eight legislators who would say, Hey Joe, 371 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,479 Speaker 2: you're gonna go and represent us in Washington. Hey Steve, 372 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: you're gonna go and register, you know, be the guy 373 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 2: in Washington, uh for for our for our state, and 374 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 2: you're gonna represent our state. You're not going to represent 375 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 2: Republicans Democrats. But when you look at the House, the 376 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: House famously was an and a machine that worked as 377 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:32,640 Speaker 2: almost like basically a part time legislature. It was one 378 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 2: of these things where it was like going on jury duty. 379 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 2: You were gonna have to go down to Washington, d C. 380 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 2: You're gonna have to serve for like two years, and 381 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: then you would go back home to your to your business, 382 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 2: to your plantation, to your whatever. It was gonna be right. 383 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: And so unfortunately, as as Franklin Delano Roosevelt complained about, 384 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 2: he said, the worst thing that you could have possibly 385 00:23:56,200 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 2: done in Washington d C. Was introduced air conditioning. Because 386 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: once you introduced air conditioning in Washington, DC, as anybody 387 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: who goes to Washington DC and the summer knows, you 388 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: have a twenty four seven three sixty five government that 389 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:17,080 Speaker 2: is now in effect at all times. And so now 390 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 2: you've got lobbyists, now you've got people coming in trying 391 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 2: to give you money, all this sort of stuff, and 392 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 2: you end up with not being less free, but being 393 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 2: almost entirely less free. 394 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 4: This is the. 395 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: Challenge that we have to kind of overcome. And so 396 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 2: I would love to go back to senators are picking, 397 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 2: are being picked by the legislature, and I would love 398 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 2: to see term limits on these folks, right, one, two, 399 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 2: whatever it's going to be. But because what that does 400 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 2: is it brings in new blood constantly. And you don't 401 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 2: have Nancy Pelosi's and you don't have swall Wells, and 402 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 2: you don't have Schumer, and you don't have you know, 403 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 2: you know, Tom Tillis and those folks. And I'm not 404 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: trying to pick on people, but you get what I'm saying. 405 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 2: You go in nobody, nobody, nobody has to stay there forever. 406 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 8: They like it. 407 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 2: Power, power is sexy, right, that's what they want. Let's 408 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 2: go to Mike online. One. Mike, welcome to the program 409 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 2: out of Ohio. 410 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 4: Hey, thanks Brent, appreciate. 411 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 2: You having me on and good job, thank you, sir. 412 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought I would chip in my thoughts about 413 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:44,159 Speaker 6: the the most positive events of the last year, and 414 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 6: this term that being the I echo that of the 415 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 6: border situation and kind of proof positive that all we 416 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 6: needed was a new president. 417 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 10: To echo Trump's comment, it is. 418 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 4: Stated as the Indian speech, Yes, sir. 419 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 6: And then my most disappointing. 420 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 10: Observation for this current term is the absence of any consequences. 421 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 9: Ah. 422 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 10: I do think we've had enough time that's. 423 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 12: Transpired and Sea was inaugurated, and as well as the 424 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 12: the settling in of the Congress and the Senate, that 425 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 12: we should have seen some evidence of consequences for people 426 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 12: that have done what they've done in this country in 427 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 12: the prior administration. Nobody's gone to jail, and it's very disappointing. 428 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 10: I'm a grandfather. I have recently retired, and uh, you know, 429 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 10: I'd like to think that, uh you know, there's some 430 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 10: example of accountability and all of that that you know 431 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 10: my kids and my grandkids, and I haven't seen it. 432 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 10: And candidate has tightened up my wallet in terms of 433 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 10: contribution to any political party or candidate here.

I think we need more citizens 441 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 2: being being involved in this sort of stuff because those 442 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: are the people who are going to be able to 443 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 2: figure out, Okay, where does this corruption go? 444 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:37,920 Speaker 10: Now? 445 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 2: One of the things that I think we're going to 446 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: see once once we get to the place where this 447 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 2: war in Ukraine ends, I think there's a lot of 448 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 2: come up and that's got to come out of that 449 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 2: as well.

What we have to do 452 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 2: is we have to go about and see what's happening 453 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 2: in terms of the stuff that was done so wrongly, 454 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 2: throwing the military out, and obviously Trump has done stuff 455 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: about that, forcing people to get the shots, all that 456 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 2: sort of stuff. They have cleaned up a lot of that, 457 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: but it's not to people's satisfaction necessarily. Now, let me 458 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 2: make one last observation very quickly, because I'm due for 459 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 2: a break here in just a minute, and it's this. 460 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 2: I don't see anybody on the board, and we're now 461 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 2: an hour and forty six minutes into the program.

And 463 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 2: I'm starting to think that maybe it's because of what 464 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 2: I heard earlier today from a number of people that well, yeah, 465 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: because it's a Bill Clinton scandal. It's that sort of 466 00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 2: stuff that they've tried to attach to Trump and it 467 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 2: hasn't been the thing that they thought it would be.
