1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: All right, thank you Scott Channon, and thanks to all 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: of you for being with us. So write down our 3 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: toll free telephone number this Friday is eight hundred and 4 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: ninety four one Sean if you want to be a 5 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: part of the program. I had a great time last night, Linda. 6 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: Could you you know me? You could tell I was 7 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:16,840 Speaker 1: having a good time. 8 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,200 Speaker 2: I mean, you were in your prime, that's for dang. 9 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 3: Sure, I was in my prime. I don't know how 10 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 3: to take that. 11 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: But no, it's a good thing, like I was. You know, 12 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,160 Speaker 2: like I said, it's your first time being a moderator. 13 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 2: You did a good job. 14 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 3: It's it's harder than you think. 15 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the amount of work, research, bacchecking that goes 16 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 1: on behind the scenes. I've been working hard on this 17 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks and I wanted we got 18 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: every single fact right as a basis to every question. 19 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 3: As far as. 20 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: The noise that is going on in terms of people complaining, 21 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: I don't really care because I know the truth and 22 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: I have evidence of the truths. 23 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 3: If need be. 24 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: But you know, and the the funny thing was is 25 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 1: Aven Newsom was fine with it. Look, here's the challenge 26 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 1: if you're a moderator. You put out a question and 27 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: if a candidate does not want to answer that question, 28 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: they're not going to Now you can go back, and 29 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: I did go back on a number of questions that 30 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: when I would ask, for example, the first question out 31 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: of the box about migration. You know, when I put 32 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: up on the screen facts, the facts are from the 33 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: US Census Bureau. In this case, seven hundred and fifty 34 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: thousand people in the years I think we had twenty 35 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: twenty one and twenty twenty two had left the state 36 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: of California. That's the first time in the history of 37 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: the state that that's ever happened. They always had people 38 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: moving into the state having lived there five years. It 39 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: is a beautiful state. If you've never driven the Pacific 40 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,639 Speaker 1: Coast Highway, you got to do that at some point 41 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: in your life. It will be worth every bit of 42 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: all the time in the world. It really will be. 43 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: And I didn't have a lot of money when I 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: lived in California. That's where I eventually got started in radio, 45 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: and you know, the nineteen eighties. I'm aging myself here. 46 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: But it is a beautiful state. I mean, coastline is 47 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: it is spectacular. It was the state of Ronald Reagan, 48 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: it was the state of Richard Nixon, and it is 49 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: now so solidly blue it's amazing. But and as I've 50 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: been pointing out, and I couldn't understand and the lead 51 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: up to the debate why some people didn't understand this, 52 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: I think people now understand it a little more because 53 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: we've discussed it. But if you don't pay attention to 54 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 1: what your local government is doing, your state government is doing, 55 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: they can have a greater impact overall impact on your life, 56 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: more than the whatever might be going on with the 57 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: federal government, although that is obviously important as well. I mean, 58 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: for example, start on the local level. Start with the 59 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 1: local school board. If you're local school board is woke 60 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: and they want to teach about gender identity and crt, 61 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,519 Speaker 1: et cetera, and you're a parent that would prefer they 62 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: stick to the basics, reading, writing, math, science, history, and computers. Understand, 63 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: if you don't pay attention to it, they're just going 64 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: to do whatever they want, and they won't be held 65 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: accountable and your kids won't be getting the traditional education 66 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: that I think is so critical. I mean, on every 67 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: issue that we talked about, it impacts people's lives. But 68 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 1: I you know, in this particular case, I felt Governor 69 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 1: Newsom just came in with his own opening statement. I 70 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: went back to him, I said, but you haven't addressed 71 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: the issue of why are people leaving your state wire 72 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: states like Florida. I mean, in the same time period, 73 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: nearly half a million people, four hundred and fifty four 74 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: thousand people moved into the state of Florida in a 75 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: two year period. That is mad yes of migration. And 76 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: the phenomenon is it is blue states that are losing 77 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: the population. Now you might argue that, well, maybe people 78 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: in New York are retiring and maybe they don't like 79 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: the winners in New York or New Jersey or Illinois. 80 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: But well, California doesn't fit into that category. They're not 81 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: leaving because they don't like the weather. They actually probably 82 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: love the weather. Then you go into the issue of taxation, 83 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: and okay, so you talk, well comnor knew some believes 84 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: and tax quote, taxing the rich. They have a high 85 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: marginal tax rate, the highest in the country at over 86 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: thirteen percent. But yet if you're a married couple making 87 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: eighty four thousand dollars a year, you're still paying six 88 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: percent of your income for state income taxes and then 89 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: all the other taxes, and I again fact based. I 90 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: put it all on the screen, let people see it. 91 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: I think that informs people, it makes it a healthier debate. 92 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: But I did my best and then did my best 93 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 1: to allow Governor de Santis to be the one debating 94 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom. After I threw out the topics, and I 95 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: was very transparent with both sides. I said, guys, this, 96 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: you don't have to overthink this. I am going to 97 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: be talking about all the obvious issues. It was very, 98 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: very clear, in other words, that this wasn't going to 99 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: devolve into some type of debate about you know, questions 100 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: that you would never have imagined or prepared for. I 101 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: wanted them to be prepared. I wanted them to explain it. 102 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: You know, if you look at the border, I mean, 103 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: it is shocking to me that there's not a sense 104 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: of urgency at what is a clear and present danger 105 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: to our country. When you look at the number one 106 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: state sponsor of terror and the number of foreign nationals 107 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 1: that have that we taught, not including potential gutaways. Why 108 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 1: are six d How did six hundred and fifty nine 109 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: Iranians end up at our southern border, the number one 110 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 1: state sponsor of terror. You know, look at Afghanistan, where 111 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: we know Al Qaeda still exists six three hundred and 112 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: eighty six. You know, Egypt three thousand, one hundred and 113 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: fifty three. Last I checked, the Muslim Brotherhood is still 114 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: very large and active out of Egypt Syria. Syria of 115 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,839 Speaker 1: course has been involved in proxy battles on behalf of 116 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: Iran five hundred and thirty eight. Then you go to 117 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: countries like China, Why are we allowing twenty two thousand, 118 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: How come twenty two thousand, one hundred and eighty seven 119 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: Chinese nationals showed up at our border? And why did 120 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: twenty two thousand Russians show up at our border? 121 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:39,799 Speaker 3: Again? 122 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: Not including Godaways, that's our number one, number two, number 123 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: three of you include Iran geopolitical foes. These, you know, 124 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: is there not a strong possibility that they come here 125 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 1: with the nefarious intentions and agenda, maybe to create a 126 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 1: terror cell in the hopes of another nine eleven or 127 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: maybe even God forbid worse. That wouldn't be good for 128 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: this country. And these are very important issues. 129 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 3: Now. 130 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 1: I give both candidates credit that they were They're not 131 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: candidates both governor's credit for coming to the debate. They 132 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: got in the arena, and I appreciate that fact, but 133 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: they you can't stop people that have their own agendas. 134 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: But I thought this was a very very very important 135 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: debate to have, you know, besides a little over talking, 136 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: and I tried hard not to tried to let the 137 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: debate breathe as I was saying during the debate, I 138 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: tried to allow each side to get their say in. 139 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: I thought they both had enough time. At the end 140 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: of the debate, it was actually Gavin Newsom that had 141 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: spoken more than Ron de Santis, you know. But the 142 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: idea that, for example, if California embraces what they have embraced, 143 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: which is sanctuary state status, and Governor DeSantis said ends 144 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: people to Sacramento on an airplane because he believes in 145 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 1: law and order on our borders and our sovereignty and 146 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: the rule of law and believes it for security reasons. 147 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: And then you have a sanctuary state. Well, if that's 148 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: your policy, take it then okay. Then I thought that's 149 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: what you were promising people. By the way, in California 150 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: in January, healthcare is going to be provided to anybody. 151 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: You can walk into that state, you can get on 152 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: their medical plan. Well, what's that going to do to 153 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: the high cost of living in California in the high 154 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,439 Speaker 1: rate of taxation. There are Democrats around the country now 155 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: that are sounding off on Joe's border crisis. Governor Heally 156 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: of Massachusetts is calling it a crisis of inaction. The 157 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: governor of Illinois Pritzker, is calling it an untenable situation. 158 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: The mayor of New York is saying this will destroy 159 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: New York City. Arizona Governor, I'm sorry, Arizona Senator Kelly 160 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: is saying that it's chaos, an utter mess. You know, 161 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: it all impacts things. Now, what are the reasons that 162 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: people are leaving? You know, seven hundred and fifty thousand 163 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 1: people left California in twenty twenty one, according to the 164 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: US Census Bureau. That is, that's a large amount of people, 165 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: and that had never happened before. You look at New York, 166 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: they lost five hundred and twenty eight thousand. You look 167 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: at Illinois, they lost two hundred and sixty two thousand. 168 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: Do Joysey lost one hundred and forty two thousand, and 169 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: they all seem to be moving to states like Florida, 170 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: and Texas and Tennessee and the Carolinas people just getting out. 171 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: When you look at the southern border encounters at six 172 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,319 Speaker 1: point five million according to US Customs and Border Patrol. 173 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 1: And again we were very meticulous in our fact checking 174 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: last night. And then you talk about what Senator Ron 175 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: Johnson said, they estimated what one point seven million got aways. 176 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: That's a lot Homeland the House Homeland Secure report on 177 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: how much this is costing we the American people, Okay, 178 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: up to four hundred and fifty billion dollars a year 179 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: at a point where we now have are very close 180 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: to thirty four trillion dollars in debt that you know, 181 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: this year alone, we're going to pay a trillion dollars 182 00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: in interest on the debt. Well, that's twenty five percent 183 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: of our budget. Before you pay a dime into Social Security, 184 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: or a dime into Medicare, or a dime into Defense, 185 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: or a dim into any other program. Guess what, you 186 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 1: got to pay the debt off first before you can 187 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: do anything else. I mean, that is a massive amount 188 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: of money. How are we ever going to pay that back? 189 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: Now? 190 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: What I would do is I become the most energy 191 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: dominant and energy rich country on the face of the earth. 192 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: And I don't see that they're going to do that, 193 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: you know, But all of these issues gas price comparisons, 194 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean, why why is it that the national average 195 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: is three dollars and twenty five tense and cow and 196 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: Florida's cost per gallon is three dollars and ten cents. 197 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: And for the record, gas never averaged nationally above three 198 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: dollars under Donald Trump for four years. And then you 199 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: go out to California it's you know, four hundred and 200 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: eighty I'm sorry, four dollars and eighty eight cents a gallon. 201 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: And then they're suing the oil companies. And what happens 202 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: when the oil companies, they've they've got to get that 203 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: money back. They got a higher expensive lawyers, they got 204 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: to put them on retainer. Then they probably have to 205 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: fight it in court. That's going to be probably tens 206 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: and tens and tens of millions of dollars. 207 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: Well, what are they going to do? How are they 208 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 3: going to pay for all that? 209 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: Well, they're going to start charging more for the price 210 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: of energy, as if that's the last thing that we need, 211 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 1: you know. But they still do have Prop. Thirteen, which 212 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: is on the books, which is one tax where it's 213 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: a little bit lower than Florida. In California point seventy 214 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: five percent Florida's point nine to one percent. But the 215 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 1: sales tax is higher, the gas tax is much higher, 216 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: corporate income tax a little bit higher in Florida. But 217 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 1: but the bottom line is is no, there's not a penny, 218 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: not one penny in income tax in the state of Florida. 219 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 3: If anybody. 220 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: But if you're a family of just a married couple 221 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 1: and your combined income is eighty four thousand dollars a 222 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: year in a state like California, that is not a 223 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: lot of money in that state. That's that that really 224 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,719 Speaker 1: is you're just getting by. If you are getting by, well, 225 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: that couple has to pay six percent income tax on 226 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 1: top of the federal income tax. I mean, it's this, 227 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: this is all impacting people's lives. Hey, we'll get your 228 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: thoughts throughout the day on it and and have analysis 229 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: play some of the the debate last night. Linda, you 230 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: liked her, right said you said you were kind of 231 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: riveted to it. 232 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: I liked it a lot. 233 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: I liked the conversation on abortion. 234 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 2: I thought that was interesting. 235 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 3: Okay, that was one big issue too, But. 236 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: What states do really does matter, and they're having huge 237 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: impacts on people's lives. I know we tend to focus 238 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:13,359 Speaker 1: more on the federal government naturally, but state regulations, state taxation, 239 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: state policy, local policy, local regulation. Let me tell you 240 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: if it plays a big part in your life, and 241 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: many of you may not even be aware of it. 242 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: Reared as we rolong Happy Friday, eight hundred and ninety 243 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: four one seawan or number you want to be a 244 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 1: part of the program, well number one if you wanted 245 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: to vote on who you think the winner of the 246 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 1: debate was. Last I checked, it was pretty high for 247 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 1: DeSantis on Hannity dot Com. 248 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 3: You can go there. 249 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: Also, we announced today we're getting back into town hall 250 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 1: time with what close to forty only about forty days 251 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 1: left to Iowa.

On the Drudge Report it 257 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: was nearly seventy percent. And the last time I look, 258 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: I think it's sixty eight, sixty nine percent or something, 259 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 1: so ours is eighty eight. Okay, well we'll put it 260 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: in the middle. It put it. We'll call it seventy 261 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: eight if you want to do that.

Thank me when I left. But I 299 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: guess the people behind the scenes didn't particularly. I don't 300 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: know why they didn't like it. I have no idea, 301 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 1: because if I ever told the real story, Yeah, the 302 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: people that were, let's just say, not exactly prone to 303 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: keeping their agreements and words. 304 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 3: There's a pretty big story for me to tell. 305 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: But I'm going to stand by my word as of 306 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: now and and not tell these stories because they're so 307 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: it's almost to the point was unbelievable. I'm glad they debated. 308 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: I applaud both of them. It was a fair debate. 309 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: And oh and then complaints. I guess that I actually 310 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: used of nobody to know what he has disputed a 311 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: single fact that we that I used to my questions. 312 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 1: They just mad that I put it up on the 313 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: screen as part of my questioning. And if that is 314 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 1: your position, if that is your record, why don't you 315 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: defend your record, defend your policies, defend your decision. There 316 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: are people that think higher taxes are better. That's just that, 317 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: that's how some liberal minds work. Tax the rich, tax 318 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 1: the ricks, rich, tax the rich, and then guess what, 319 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: the rich start leaving. 320 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 3: Tax the rich, tax the rich, tax the rich.

Governor Cuomo 323 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: called that one right. They're leaving New York in droves. 324 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: They're leaving California in droves. It's a phenomenon we've never 325 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: seen before. I'll think about a response. I'm you know, 326 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: it's just like I guess you didn't feel that your 327 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 1: candidate did well or your your governor did well. 328 00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 3: If you're just whining like. 329 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: This over the most petty things in the world, by 330 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 1: the way, most of which is not true.

I'd like to 333 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 1: keep going. Somebody came in. I don't know who it was. 334 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 1: I did have an opportunity to speak to him twice 335 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: yesterday with his staff and once with his wife. She 336 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: was lovely and or first partner I think they call officially, 337 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: I want to use the proper term that they prefer, 338 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: and just lovely. It couldn't have been nicer, and he 339 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: in person is a nice guy. However, the policies are 340 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: the policies. The record is the record. The questions were 341 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:45,719 Speaker 1: on the most basic and fundamental issues that impact people's lives. 342 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 1: It is that simple immigration policy impacts people's lives. Taxes 343 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 1: impact people's lives. Regulation impacts people's lives. Crime, law, order 344 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: the prerequisite for happiness or the pursuit of happiness. It 345 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: impacts people's lives. All of the issues I brought up 346 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 1: when I prepared for this debate. The one thing I 347 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,880 Speaker 1: wanted to do was make it relevant to every single person, 348 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: not just in California and Florida. But the issues were 349 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: all facing crime, regulation, taxation, immigration, illegal immigration. You know, 350 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:30,439 Speaker 1: how do we pay for all of this? And I 351 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: felt that we accomplished that goal and that was it, 352 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: and we were very transparent with both sides saying the 353 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: exact same thing. 354 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 3: And you know whatever. 355 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 1: Anyway, eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn is a 356 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: number if you want to be a part of the program. Well, 357 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 1: because of you, this great mission at preborn dot com 358 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: slash Sean is doing phenomenally well. They've already rescued over 359 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,959 Speaker 1: forty thousand babies this year alone. 360 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 3: And this is the group. 361 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: They use science, the science of four D ultrasound, and 362 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: what they do is they offer free ultrasounds to any 363 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: expecting mom. They offer other services as well, like counseling. 364 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: They offer and after a mom gives birth to a child, 365 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: if they need help, they still offer to help them. 366 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: But they don't do it with tax payer money because 367 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: unlike Planned parenthood, Well it's not the government's philosophy to 368 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: do that anyway. They just need your help. If you 369 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,480 Speaker 1: are in the pro life community, believe in the sanctity 370 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 1: of life. Every one of those forty ultrasounds is twenty 371 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: eight bucks and what they're finding is And Linda, we've 372 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 1: talked a lot about this. It's amazing you had the 373 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 1: ability to see liam with such high definition that I 374 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: did not have. That technology did not exist when my 375 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 1: kids were born. 376 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 2: Well, that's the thing. If you can see a child's face, 377 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 2: if you can hear it's heartbeat, and you know it's 378 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 2: a living creature, and it's not just some quote unquote 379 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 2: thing as many would like you to think, you change 380 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 2: your mind. And that's what Preborn's doing. It's changing hearts 381 00:20:59,440 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 2: and mind. 382 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: And right now, by the way, if you donate to 383 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: Preborn and you believe in this mission, your match, they 384 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: have a match going on where your gift will be doubled. 385 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: In other words, you give one hundred, it's going to 386 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: be two hundred. 387 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 3: Anyway. 388 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: Two ways to donate dial pound two fifty, say the 389 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: keyword baby pound two fifty keyword baby, or just go 390 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: to their website. It's preborn dot com slash sean seam 391 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: preborn dot com slash sewn all. Right, now, we got 392 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: so much news out there, I don't even know what 393 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: to say about this issue, and involving George Santos, he 394 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: hasn't been convicted. Now it's actually personal in a way 395 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: to me. I don't know how I got stuck with 396 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: this guy, but he happened to be no longer is 397 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: my congressman. And what I don't understand, what I don't 398 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: understand about about Republicans is if congresswoman to lead pulleds, 399 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: you know, from the river to the sea, the absolute 400 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,360 Speaker 1: wiping out of Israel, and only gets a censure. How 401 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: is it a guy that's not been convicted of anything, 402 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: he's been charged that the Republicans have to race out 403 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: there and say, nope, we're gonna kick him out when 404 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: they only have a four seat majority. Now it's down 405 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: to three, with reports that as many as two other 406 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: Republicans might retire by year's end or early next year, 407 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: one of them being Kevin McCarthy. Okay, now they're down 408 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 1: to a one vote majority. I'd forbid somebody had a 409 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: heart attack and passed away or didn't want to be 410 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: there either. Okay, now, what Speaker Jeffreys, This is where 411 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: Republicans do not I keep saying. Democrats they circle the wagons. 412 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: Republicans they create circular firing squads. And anyway, I mean 413 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: one thing John Fetterman said today, I can't believe I'm 414 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: quoting him. If Republican George Santos deserved to be expelled, well, 415 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: the same things should then happen to the indicted Democratic 416 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: senator from New Jersey, and that would be Bob Menendez. 417 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 3: What's your reaction to. 418 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 4: The expulsion, Well, it's like I'm not surprised. But to me, 419 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 4: I think the more important picture is that we have 420 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 4: a colleague in the Senate that actually does much more 421 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 4: sinister and serious kinds of things, Senator Menendez. 422 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 3: He needs to go. 423 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 4: And if you are going to expel Santos, how can 424 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 4: you allow to somebody like Menendez to remain in the Senate. 425 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 4: And you know, Santos's kind of lies were almost you know, funny, 426 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,199 Speaker 4: and like you know, he you know, landed on the 427 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 4: moon and it got kind of stuff. Whereas whereas you know, 428 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 4: you know, I think you know, Menendez, I think is 429 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 4: really a senator for Egypt, you know, not New Jersey. 430 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 4: So I really think he needs to go. And especially 431 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 4: it's kind of strange that if Santos is not allowed 432 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 4: to remain in the House, you know, someone like that. 433 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, I would not support that 434 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: that might like one of the few people that refuses 435 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 1: to rush to judgment, you know, does not go along 436 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: with this. You know, uh, this this constant pattern that people, Oh, 437 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 1: you're guilty, you're charge, You're guilty. No, I don't believe that. 438 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 1: I believe I can't get it until you've proven guilty. Yes, 439 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: go right ahead. 440 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 2: I just want to give a slight comparison. This is 441 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: the same Congress, House and Senate that is unable to 442 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 2: vote to impeach Majorca's the same House and Senate that 443 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: is unable to vote on funding Israel. It's the same one. 444 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: They had a chance this week to fund Israel in 445 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: a clean bill voting standalone. 446 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 2: Bill Shoomer's up there, Bryan, Oh my heart for Israel. 447 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: Oh really, once you rally the troop, Shimmer, just start 448 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 2: pulling some strings. We all know you have them. 449 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 3: Could we could have cut the check already. 450 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 2: Yep, crocodile tears. They're so full of crap. But Santos, Oh, yeah, 451 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,959 Speaker 2: he's the problem, and this is listen. I have not 452 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 2: given my opinion on who he is and what he's about. 453 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 2: That's a different segment entirely. My point is when they 454 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 2: want to act, they act, and this is all like 455 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 2: pomp and circumstance. They could do things to help people, 456 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 2: then not. 457 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: I think, how about we wait till they have their 458 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: trial and to presume, give them the presumption of innocence. 459 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: Why don't we stop rushing to judgment the way these 460 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: people do. I do have other good news, by the way, 461 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: bad news. If you're a Chris Christie fan, all fifteen 462 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: of you, it looks like Christie's days on the debate 463 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: stage may be numbered. He's not met the Republican National 464 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: Committee's polling thresholds or qualifying for next week's debate. I 465 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: didn't even know there was Oh, there is a debate 466 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: next week. That's right, with only a few days left. Anyway, 467 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: let's get to the phones. John is in the Commonwealth 468 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: of Virginia. Hey John, Happy Friday, sir, glad you called. 469 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 5: On. 470 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 6: How you doing, my friends? 471 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 3: I'm good what's going on? 472 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 6: Hey, it swet to a comment last night. I was 473 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 6: able to listen to the audio of last night, and 474 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 6: I thought, what you you handled it brilliantly. I think 475 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 6: what you letting them talk over one another for the 476 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 6: period of time that they did, I thought was brilliant. 477 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 6: What that taught me was how in typical Democrat fashion 478 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 6: newsomb just you can't he can't support his own position, 479 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 6: so he's got to talk down to be little talk 480 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:29,160 Speaker 6: over now everybody else. And I thought, when you put 481 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 6: up the graphics and then he told us that you know, 482 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 6: it was a lie and that we shouldn't believe our 483 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 6: own eyes, I thought you handled it very very well. 484 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 6: I think you did a great job. 485 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: I honestly, I really appreciate it. It's a it's a 486 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 1: it's a balancing act. I mean, I've been posting radio 487 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: for thirty three years now, okay, and we've had many 488 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 1: shootout debates on this program, and you know, I have 489 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: learned it's kind of an art form. To the best 490 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: of my ability, there there are times when they're going 491 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 1: at it hard and people actually want to see it. 492 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: Now they'll tell you they don't, but they do. But 493 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: then there's then you got to balance that where Okay, 494 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,120 Speaker 1: people are going to be getting pissed off and it's 495 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,919 Speaker 1: got to stop and you got to get control of it. 496 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: So it's kind of like, you know, I'm always trying 497 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,439 Speaker 1: to measure and usually I kind of go with my 498 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: own all Right, I've had enough of this. When I 499 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 1: get to that point, or somebody writes me and gets 500 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 1: and says and I see my text come in and 501 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 1: say this is getting old, I'll move on.

Adam in California, Adam, how. 504 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 3: Are you doing good? 505 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 5: Doing good? I was in a chat group with a 506 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 5: bunch of my friends and I think I was like 507 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 5: one of maybe five conservatives in the group is about 508 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 5: a fifty or sixty friends. It was a large group 509 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 5: check but a lot of them thought that it was 510 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,000 Speaker 5: two on one you and you and Santis against Newsom. 511 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 5: And I think I was the only one in there 512 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 5: that that knew that you have a relationship do some 513 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 5: outside of friendly relationship outside of politics. 514 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, if you met him, he's a nice guy, 515 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: I will tell you that he's very you know, charming, 516 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: central casting. I mean, he could have been Michael Douglass 517 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: and the American President. I mean, and I think and 518 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 1: by the way, he's also sincere in his beliefs that part. 519 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 3: I can tell you it's not a show. 520 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, the guy. The guy definitely a camera. 521 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: Friendly, but they've been saying that for weeks leading up 522 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: to it. I actually joked with him in a text. 523 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, when are you gonna start saying it's 524 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: four on one, three oh one. He goes a great idea. 525 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: That was their way of sort of. It was just 526 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: their talking point to be very honest with you. But 527 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: it's meaningless to me because it was not Yeah. 528 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 5: I thought you did a very good job. And besides, 529 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 5: regardless of what side me and my friends were on, 530 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 5: we all agreed that it was one of the best 531 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 5: debates that we have we haven't seen and we've heard. 532 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 5: You could have put it on a pay per view 533 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 5: and some people would have paid for it, like depending 534 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 5: on the price I might have, but we're all hanging 535 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 5: on the words of each one. It was like a 536 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 5: boxing match, man. I mean, you you killed it. You 537 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 5: did a very very good job. 538 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: And well, once the once the debate part got got 539 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: once I got the topic out there, and maybe so. 540 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: I guess their complain is they didn't like how I 541 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: framed the questions. But all I did was they were 542 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,240 Speaker 1: all fact based, sourced questions. Then if they you know, 543 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: as long as they gave each other room to breathe 544 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: and and took the time somewhat seriously, I just let 545 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: them go. 546 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 3: I stayed out of it. 547 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 5: Yeah you did. You did a really good job. The 548 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 5: fact that you had to breathe was was awesome. You 549 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 5: kind of let it, let it mature, I guess, so 550 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 5: to speak, in its own way. You let them talk, 551 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 5: and that was that was It was really good. At 552 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 5: times it kind of got hectic, but that added to 553 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 5: it because you can kind of feel both of them, 554 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,959 Speaker 5: we're passionate about it. It was it was awesome. 555 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: Read that part was real, and that's why I think 556 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: that that debates like this are important to have. And yeah, 557 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: it's sometimes they're gonna have a little bit of talk 558 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: over and that's natural. 559 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:02,200 Speaker 3: Uh. 560 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: It certainly wasn't boring, It certainly wasn't dull. It certainly 561 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: was relevant. And even though maybe your friends, you know, 562 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: don't like me or agree with me or whatever, I'm 563 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: glad they watched it. I will tell you this that 564 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 1: when we added up the total time, Avin Newsom got 565 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: more time than Ron De Santis in the end. 566 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 5: So yeah, not very many people know that you, you 567 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 5: and Newsome actually like our friendly like outside of politics. 568 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 5: So when they see you, know, they when they're like, oh, 569 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 5: he's being biased, and somebody's like, well, did you guys 570 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 5: know that they're actually friendly outside of the showy. 571 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: They gotta you gotta give them credit for showing up, 572 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 1: you really do.

I give him a lot of 574 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: credit for that, and you know that that's all part. 575 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,719 Speaker 1: It's part of the game.
