I don't know a lot about either 42 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 6: of you, but if you happen to see the White 43 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 6: House press briefing yesterday, you know Caroline Levitt continuing to 44 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 6: have to answer questions from the left. That's just trying 45 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 6: to criticize the response and criticize what may have gone 46 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 6: wrong leading up to this, instead of just letting this 47 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 6: play out and letting people recover and try to move 48 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 6: forward from this tragedy. Guys, it's just sad to see 49 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 6: how it's all unfolding. 50 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I didn't see Caroline's press conference yesterday, 51 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: but what I did do was watch the lamestream media 52 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: just for just almost for fun. You know, it's just 53 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 1: so fun to see the parallel universe they actually subsist 54 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: in the bottom feeders. 55 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 2: Of the world and how they think. 56 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: And it was, you know, absolutely like watching a completely 57 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: different story take place then what all of us saw 58 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: and know to be true, you know, and you have 59 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: to remember too, remember how Joe and Kamala David I 60 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: know you were and they never went to the scenes 61 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: of tragedy. They didn't go to East Palestine, Palestine, they 62 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: didn't go. There were so many places they didn't bother 63 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: to go. And then President Trump would go when he 64 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: wasn't president, remember that, and to the border is a 65 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: big one. They never did anything about with all the 66 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: tragedy there, and so for them to sit back and 67 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: there was no criticism then. By the way, you never 68 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: heard Joe and Mika talking about that. But now that 69 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:28,839 Speaker 1: it's President Trump, tables have turned and now they criticize 70 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: he can't do right right. If he goes, they'll criticize. 71 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: If he doesn't go, they'll criticize David now. 72 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: And they couldn't even wait twenty four hours. I mean, 73 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 3: my goodness, you know, shame on them, Shame on all 74 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 3: of the liberal media today who are just starting to 75 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: question things that aren't even really questionable at this point. 76 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,119 Speaker 3: You want to ask a few questions, fine, but could 77 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: you wait a little bit? 78 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 5: Number one? 79 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 3: But you know, President Trump is like Kevin Bacon. You know, 80 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 3: it's like that six degrees of separation right with Kevin Bacon. 81 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: I mean, everything's connected back to Trump. You know, global warming, 82 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 3: the floods are his problem. The cuts now that they 83 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: have we're dosee. You know, those are now the problems 84 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 3: for something that hasn't happened in like forever up there. 85 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 3: I mean in terms of this bad of a flood. 86 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 3: They've had floods there before, but nothing even this horrific, 87 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 3: even though there's been horrific floods up there. The point 88 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 3: is is that everything is associated back to President Trump. 89 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 5: When will they learn? 90 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: And the answer is they won't. 91 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 5: It's retorted. 92 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,039 Speaker 1: Do you even imagine being a parent or family member 93 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: of one of these people and having to look at 94 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: these ridiculous people. No pontificating, politicizing, all the rest of it. 95 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: All right, well, let's get to today's Bible verse. It's 96 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: from verse Corinthians thirteen twelve. For now we see in 97 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I 98 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: know in part, but then I shall know, just as 99 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: I also am known great reassurance from our Lord and 100 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,679 Speaker 1: Savior Jesus Christ and the Bible. 101 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 2: Right there. 102 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: Democrats have been blaming President Trump, as we said, and 103 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: Doze for the deadly floods in Texas. Senate Minority Leader 104 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer calling on the Commerce Department to open an 105 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: investigation to see if DOGE cuts at the National Weather 106 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: Service stations impacted the situation. But this is how White 107 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: House Post Secretary Caroline Lovett responded to the claims. After 108 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: Rav's own Brian Glynn asked the question, take. 109 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 8: A look, do think those comments are depraved and despicable, 110 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 8: especially when so many Americans are mourning the loss of 111 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 8: their children. The National Weather Service, as I said, did 112 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 8: its job. Many experts, many meteorologists, have said that many 113 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 8: of you in the media and all fairness have said 114 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 8: that as well. Unfortunately, not all and many Democrat elected 115 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,599 Speaker 8: officials are trying to turn this into a political game, 116 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 8: and it is not. This is a national tragedy. In 117 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 8: the administration is treating it as such. We know the 118 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 8: National Weather Service provided early and consistent warnings. They gave 119 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 8: out timely flash flood alerts. There were record breaking lead 120 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 8: times in the lead up to this catastrophe. There is 121 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 8: ongoing flood monitoring, and these offices were well staffed. In fact, 122 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 8: one of the offices was actually overstaffed. They had more 123 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 8: people than they need for. 124 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: More Let's bring in Missouri Congressman Mark Alford, Congressman, you 125 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: know tragedy Missouri, my home state. We have tornadoes, we 126 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: have floods. We've had some really bad floods in Missouri. 127 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: And you know, if anything, if anything, it seems like 128 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: the warnings today under the Trump administration, if they really 129 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: want to push it to there, if the left really 130 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: wants to make us discuss this, are better and more 131 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: efficient than anything. Government as a whole is functioning better, 132 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: don't you think, Congressmen, under President Trump, and more accountably 133 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: and more authentically, I might add, than it ever has 134 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: under Democrat or really even recent Republican administrations. 135 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 9: Well, doctor Geena David Terrence, thanks for having me on. Yeah, 136 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 9: it is working smoothly. It is more transparent than any 137 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 9: administration I've ever seen in my lifetime. 138 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 10: Look, I grew up down. 139 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 5: In the Houston area. 140 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 9: We used to go to on the Guadalupe River every 141 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 9: summer to vacation. I know this area well. It is 142 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 9: prone to flash flooding. The warnings were there. The National 143 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 9: Weather Service and New bron Felds not too far from 144 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 9: there on the Guadaloupe downstream actually was staffed up ahead 145 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 9: of time, knowing that a storm like this was coming. 146 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 9: At about one in the morning or one in the 147 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 9: afternoon the day before, they issued the first flash flood warning, 148 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 9: and then again at one in the morning that morning 149 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 9: of the flooding they issued another warning. Look, there may 150 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 9: be problems that need to be fixed along the river. 151 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 9: There was not adequate cell phone service. I don't know 152 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 9: if anyone had a National Oceana NOAH radio that could. 153 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 5: Have gotten those alerts. 154 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 9: And it is so unfortunate that these young people died, 155 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 9: and really everyone who died along this flooding route along 156 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 9: the Guadalupe River. But to place the blame on the 157 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 9: administration and President Trump. It is just a further signal 158 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 9: of the woke Democrat numb skulls who want to blame 159 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 9: Trump for everything. It is a sickness, it is a disease, 160 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 9: and it's manifesting itself with this blame game. 161 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 3: Amen to all of that, for sure, Congressman, there's so 162 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 3: much to get to. 163 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 11: I want to get to what's. 164 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 3: Going on between Benjamin Netyah, who of course is in Washington, 165 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 3: met with President Trump yesterday. They had dinner and he 166 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 3: surprised Trump with this formal Nobel Peace Prize nomination during 167 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 3: an historic White House meeting, and then he during this meeting, 168 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 3: President Trump was asked about sending more weapons to Ukraine. 169 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 3: Will he send more weapons to Ukraine? 170 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 7: And this was his answer, take. 171 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 5: A look. 172 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 12: More weapons. 173 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 13: We're going to send some more weapons. 174 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 7: We have to. 175 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 14: They have to be able to defend themselves. They're getting 176 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 14: hit very hard. Now, they're getting hit very hard. We're 177 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 14: gonna have to send more weapons yet, defensive weapons primarily, 178 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 14: but they're getting hit very, very hard. 179 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 15: So many people are dying in that mess. 180 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: Uh Maga is probably not signing up for this specifically, 181 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 3: So I'm curious to get your take though. His call 182 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 3: with Putin just what a couple of days ago or 183 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 3: so really was not a good one at all. And 184 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 3: now Putin's going on the offensive this summer, so things 185 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:25,839 Speaker 3: are changing here a little bit. 186 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 15: Well, a couple of things to play here, David. 187 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 9: I certainly do not want to send any more money 188 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 9: to Ukraine. 189 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 10: We've talked about this for years. 190 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 9: We spent more than three hundred billion dollars, some of 191 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 9: that missing unaccounted for. We've used part of that money 192 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 9: to prop up their government and to pay for their 193 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 9: government pensions, when we can't even get a hold of 194 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 9: our own financial situation here in the United States of America. 195 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 9: The money's got to end. But if we can send 196 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 9: some armaments over there, some of our older equipment and 197 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 9: replace that and possibly get alone get them to borrow 198 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 9: the money from us to buy this equipment in the 199 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 9: first place, I think it's a win for the United 200 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 9: States of America. 201 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 5: We've got to be careful about. 202 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 9: Another thing, though, is that we don't deplete our own 203 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 9: munitions and resources. We've got to be ready for anything 204 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 9: that Jijingping throws our way. And if Vladimir Putin expands 205 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 9: into Europe. That's going to be a big problem. NATO 206 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 9: is very concerned about this. I told you we were 207 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 9: on a trip a couple of months ago to Denmark, Sweden, 208 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 9: and the Netherlands. They are very concerned, as Stony, Alatia, 209 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 9: all these countries that border Russia are very concerned that Plutin, 210 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 9: if he is successful in his aggressions towards Ukraine, is 211 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 9: not going to stop there. So we have to be ready. 212 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 9: I think the President's got a tough decision to make, 213 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 9: but I know the folks in my district do not 214 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 9: want any more money going to Ukraine, and I agree 215 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 9: with that. 216 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, Congressman, before we let you go, do want to 217 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: talk about the one big, beautiful bill. You and your 218 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 6: colleagues got it over the finish line, got it on 219 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 6: the President Trump's death, signed and into law. 220 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 5: But what happens next? 221 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,239 Speaker 6: The last time we talked, we talked about the possibility 222 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 6: of a couple more reconciliation process to potentially add or 223 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 6: change the bill. What would you like to see added 224 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 6: or changed or tweaked in the bill? 225 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 5: What happens next? 226 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 9: Well, look, we have two more shots at this, two 227 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 9: more bites of the apple reconciliation. You can do three 228 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,599 Speaker 9: packages in a term of a Congress, and so we 229 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 9: have got another. What you're almost two years to get 230 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 9: something done. You're in a half anyway. I don't know 231 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 9: exactly what would fit into there. What I'm really concerned 232 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 9: about right now, Terrence and Gina and David is the 233 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 9: appropriations process. I'm only Appropriations Committee. We start our August 234 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 9: break where we come back home and work in the district. 235 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 9: We only have eight days, eight legislative days until we 236 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 9: do that. And so we've got five appropriation bills passed 237 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 9: out of the committee. 238 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 5: We have seven left to go. 239 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 9: We're going to go back and hit the ground hard 240 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 9: under the direction of Tom Cole, our chair, and try 241 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 9: to get as many as we can done. But we 242 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 9: do not need another continuing resolution. I fear that's what 243 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 9: we're headed towards. We're still operating under a budget that's 244 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 9: several years old. Now, we've got to make these spending cuts, 245 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 9: all these dough suggestions that we are now taking to heart, 246 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 9: and we are making these hard cuts in these committees 247 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 9: to reduce our spending. We've got to get into this 248 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 9: new spending plan and not rely on another continuing resolution 249 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 9: under the old. 250 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: Spending Congressman Mark Alford, thank you so much for being. 251 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 2: With us today. 252 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 5: My pleasures, Congressman. 253 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 2: Right, coming up, we. 254 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: Check out the latest headlines from the RAP newsroom with 255 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: Ta Bates, and later we have looked at the tragedy 256 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: in Texas from a response and recovery angle. 257 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: What are the people saying. 258 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: We have some heartbreaking stories just ahead on American So nice. 259 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 15: It's brought to you by AMAC, Association of Mature American Citizens. 260 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: That is the US capital, that would be Washington, d C. 261 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 3: And the Senate is back today.

We're going to talk to congress excuse me, 267 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 3: former Congressman Louis Gohmert, who has a lot to say. 268 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 3: He knows the area, he knows the region, and he 269 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 3: will be here to discuss first though. T baits standing 270 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 3: by with the latest headlines from the Real America's Voice newsroom. 271 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 3: It's all sponsored by AMAC. 272 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,959 Speaker 15: The Association of Mature American Citizens is the conservative voice 273 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 15: for Americans fifty and older. AMAC is fighting for the 274 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 15: values that you hold. 275 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 16: Dear. 276 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 15: Joined today, together, we can write the course of America. 277 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 6: It's only Tuesday, and President Trump has arguably accomplished more 278 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 6: this week than many people will accomplish in a lifetime. 279 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 7: I want to. 280 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 11: Present to you, as President the latter I sent to 281 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 11: the Noble Prize Committee. 282 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 15: It's somining you for the Peace Prize, which is well deserved. 283 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 15: Things you can get it. 284 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,439 Speaker 7: Thank you very much. This I didn't know well. 285 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 6: That nomination coming is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahoo visited 286 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 6: President Trump at the White House on Monday to discuss peace. 287 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 5: With the entire Middle East. 288 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 6: The Israeli leader says with President Trump's leadership, he believes 289 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 6: peace can be achieved in the entire region, including a 290 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 6: scenario in which Palestinians would govern themselves but keeping security 291 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 6: in Gaza in Israel's control. In the meantime, the Trump 292 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 6: administration says it will meet with Iranian officials, perhaps within 293 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 6: a week. The sit down would come in the wake 294 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 6: of the US bombing of Iran's nuclear sites. More countries 295 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 6: will likely receive letters from President Trump today warning of 296 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 6: increased tariff starting all August first. On Monday, he sent 297 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 6: notice to fourteen countries, including Japan and South Korea, the 298 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 6: President even posting the notes on True Social as you 299 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 6: can see here. In his letters to Japan and South 300 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 6: Korea announcing twenty five percent tariffs, the President also writing, 301 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 6: and I'm quoting here, if for any reason you decide 302 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 6: to raise your tariffs, then whatever the number you choose 303 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 6: to raise them by, will be added on to the 304 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 6: twenty five percent that we charge. The latest tariff moves 305 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 6: come after the Commander in Chief put a ninety day 306 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 6: hold on implementation of tariffs in order to give countries 307 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 6: an opportunity to reach more equitable trade agreements with the 308 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 6: United States. Some trading partners are getting a bit of 309 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 6: a reprieve from Wednesday's deadline in order to get a 310 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 6: deal done, and will likely have until August first to 311 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 6: reach an agreement. 312 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 5: Or face a higher teriff. 313 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 6: Now to the very latest on the deadly flooding in Texas, 314 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 6: the number of debt has now surpassed one hundred people 315 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 6: in search and rescue crews are still looking for miss people. 316 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 6: President Trump scheduled to visit that region in the devastation 317 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 6: later this week, likely on Friday, so as to not 318 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 6: distract from the ongoing recovery efforts. In the meantime, questions 319 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 6: are being asked about weather warnings leading up to the 320 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,280 Speaker 6: downpours that caused the flooding, and why some of the 321 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 6: kids summer camps that were affected didn't evacuate ahead of 322 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 6: the flooding.

But it's what we do. 502 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 24: We saw it with the hurricanes in the past. People 503 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 24: are out there helping themselves, helping others. But it sure 504 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 24: makes a difference when you have the resources that have 505 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 24: come that are coming in the way. The Coast Guard 506 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 24: and the emergency services here in Texas have also just surged. 507 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 24: It is really making a difference. It's just there's so 508 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 24: many people. You couldn't thank them all. They're out there. 509 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:57,640 Speaker 24: And if you've ever been in anything like this where 510 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 24: you're digging through debris and it's hot and it's humid 511 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 24: and it's miserable, it's not fun work and it's you 512 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,719 Speaker 24: wouldn't think, oh, these are heroes, but they are. They're 513 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 24: digging through, they're sweating through everything they've got, but they're 514 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 24: still looking and hoping, and that's their hope that springs 515 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 24: eternal in the human breast. They're still holding out hope 516 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 24: that some of those that haven't been found may be 517 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 24: found and have some life in them. So the search 518 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 24: goes on and the work goes on, and they will rebuild. 519 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 24: It's such a gorgeous area. 520 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 3: Luis Omert, thanks for being here in honor and We 521 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 3: appreciate you you spend some time with us this morning. 522 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 7: Thank you. 523 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 10: Great to be with you. 524 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 24: Thank you for putting a proper focus on it. 525 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 3: You bet, of course, more American Centrise after the break. 526 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back to American Sunrise. 527 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: I'm doctor g Thanks for joining us this morning.

Victory, 567 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: definitely explain this secondary drowning thing to us. This is 568 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: something I heard about a few years ago. Was the 569 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: first time I'd ever heard of it, and it's very scary. 570 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: So does that mean if we are ever submerged in 571 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: water for a certain amount of time, we need to 572 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: get to the er, even if we think we're fine. 573 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 2: Tell us about this. 574 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 19: Well, yeah, Secondary drowning Gina simply is the term that 575 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 19: we apply to people who have water in their lungs, 576 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 19: have actually been submerged, have inhaled water, but haven't fortunately 577 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 19: succumbed to it. So there are things that can be 578 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 19: done from an emergency perspective to return those people to 579 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 19: full health. And that is obviously not the situation that 580 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 19: these individuals, these victims in Texas have found themselves. This 581 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 19: tragedy in Texas, unfortunately is not the type of thing 582 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 19: where we tend to see secondary drownings that generally occurs 583 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 19: when someone has fallen into a swimming pool or somewhere 584 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 19: where someone can get to them very quickly. Not the 585 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 19: sort of natural disaster or tragedy that we have seen 586 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 19: with this horrific flood in Texas. These people largely, unfortunately 587 00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 19: likely drowned as a result, not just of the water, 588 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 19: but of the debris. People fail to understand, and you 589 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 19: captured it in some of the remarkable video footage that 590 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 19: you showed in the last segment. It is the mounting 591 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 19: wall of debris that is coming at you. An Olympic 592 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 19: swimmer might be able to tolerate that current and that 593 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 19: water level, but not when there are trees and vehicles, RVs, 594 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 19: pieces of boats and cars, pieces of housing. You know, 595 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 19: it is absolutely overwhelming and you get submerged in that 596 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 19: wall and tangle of debris. And that is why they're 597 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 19: are really have been so few actual recoveries of people, 598 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 19: and we are now in as you said, really looking 599 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 19: for unfortunately, the bodies of the deceased. 600 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, Sad, I heard a story about one man 601 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 1: who had he was screaming for help and they took 602 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: a tie like those things you tie around like to 603 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,400 Speaker 1: tie a car on a trailer. It took one of those, 604 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 1: and that we're throwing it out to him, trying to 605 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: reach it. It was a little short, he couldn't reach it, 606 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: and a cabin came along that was just floating down 607 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: the river and just didn't And people watch this, children 608 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: watch this. I mean, these people, It's going to be 609 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: a long battle back for them, isn't it. 610 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 12: Doctor Victory, Absolutely, I have no doubt that this Towe 611 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 12: and everything I've heard and read about it, they sound 612 00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 12: to be tremendously resilient people, and many of them are 613 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 12: people of faith. 614 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 19: Even that said, this is a tragic, tragic event for 615 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,840 Speaker 19: children to have witnessed. This is just horrific to even 616 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 19: think about. Many of these families lost more than one child, 617 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 19: which is really overwhelming in itself. The idea that you know, 618 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 19: as a parent, you drop your children off at summer 619 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 19: camp expecting them to have the time of their lives. 620 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,479 Speaker 19: This is the last thing you anticipate. So I'm sure 621 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 19: there's a tremendous amount of fear in these kids who 622 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 19: did survive. Their survivor's guilt in those kids who were 623 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,520 Speaker 19: in the higher cabins will suffer from some of that, 624 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 19: the idea that it could have been them if they 625 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 19: had been at one of the lower cabins where some 626 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 19: of their siblings were. This is going to take a 627 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 19: lot of community effort. I have no question that they 628 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 19: will bounce back, but they're going to be some dark 629 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 19: days ahead, and they are going to need all of 630 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 19: the love and support of not only their local community, 631 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 19: but of the nation. 632 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: I've heard some of the people interviewed that you mentioned 633 00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,800 Speaker 1: having survivor's guilt. You know, what could we have done differently? 634 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 1: It's easy to armshair, quarterback this, you know on the backside. 635 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,839 Speaker 1: But are there things that we can do that you 636 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 1: see in this to prevent such future tragedies. 637 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 19: Well, I am not one in this particular case to 638 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 19: do any finger pointing, because I'm not sure there was 639 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 19: much that could have been done. As the Congressman said, 640 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 19: there's been a lot of blame going around that simply 641 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 19: does not comport with the facts as we know them. 642 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 19: Any cutbacks or financial changes that have been made recently 643 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 19: did not seem to have impacted the staffing in vectus. 644 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:35,279 Speaker 19: My understanding that they had additional people on hand on 645 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 19: the night of the event in anticipation of a significant rainfall. Unfortunately, 646 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 19: the most important thing people can do when it comes 647 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,280 Speaker 19: to flash floods is to be aware and to heed 648 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 19: the warnings. It takes less than a foot of rapidly 649 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 19: moving water to knock even the average adult off their feet. 650 00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 19: Never tried to drive a car through what appears to 651 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 19: be shallow water, You have no idea how deep that 652 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 19: water might be, and you can easily get swept away. 653 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 19: When it comes to evacuations, it's a fine line, Gina. 654 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 19: You don't want to pull the evacuation flag unnecessarily because 655 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,520 Speaker 19: then you end up with people who don't listen. In 656 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 19: the future they say, look, we've been evacuated two or 657 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 19: three times and it ended up being nothing. Also, if 658 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,760 Speaker 19: you evacuate too late, you can end up putting people 659 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 19: into harm's way. You take people who are at high 660 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 19: ground and safe where they were, and you might put 661 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 19: them on buses or vehicles or evacuation vehicles and then 662 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 19: drive them into lower lying areas where you put them 663 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 19: at risk. So it's a tough call. This is a 664 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 19: once in a lifetime on one hundred year rainfall. I'm 665 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 19: not sure anyone really could have anticipated this, So I 666 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 19: am not one to fingerpoint this at this juncture, but 667 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 19: I would say that when it comes to flash floods 668 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 19: or being flood prone areas, the most important thing you 669 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 19: can do is have good communication with the National Weather 670 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 19: Service and heed any warnings that you get because flash floods, 671 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 19: by their very nature, happen incredibly quickly and you may 672 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 19: not have time to evacuate when the time comes. 673 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,920 Speaker 1: I have to tell you, doctor Victory has changed my 674 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:23,560 Speaker 1: perspective on the hurricanes. I'm one of those that's I'm 675 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: going to sit in my house. I'm not going to leave, 676 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 1: you know, and my family is pretty much the same way. 677 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: But I think this flood, you know, because once in 678 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: one hundred years things do happen. Thank you, doctor Victory 679 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: for your perspective on. 680 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 2: All of this. 681 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 19: Thank you for having me coming out. 682 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:41,479 Speaker 1: Hollywood continues pushing woke movies, as New Superman director says 683 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: to his movie is about immigration.

He says, 714 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 6: the story is about migrant who came from another place 715 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 6: and brings back the human kindness that we all have lost. 716 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 6: So has Hollywood not learned anything about woke? After Disney 717 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,960 Speaker 6: snow White flopped at the box office. 718 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 5: Let's bring in Gena and David for a little bit 719 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 5: more on this. Guys. 720 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 6: You saw the headline there, and you saw what the 721 00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 6: director said. Doctor Gina, I suspect you've got a little 722 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 6: something to say about this, your thoughts. 723 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, by and large, it's just become 724 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,960 Speaker 1: our movies and their movies, you know. 725 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:09,760 Speaker 2: And it's so funny. 726 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 1: My children are all privy to this, so I have 727 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 1: like my own little movie review committee at the dinner 728 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: table every evening. But they'll say, oh, you know, Mommy, 729 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 1: you don't want to see that it's woke. Let's go 730 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: see this one because the producer that made it as 731 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 1: a Christian. 732 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 2: I mean, it's sad that it's come down to that. 733 00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: But on the other hand, it has created a beautiful 734 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 1: parallel economy that I talk about all the time on 735 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: this show, where Christians and Conservatives and people who just 736 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: love the Constitution of Love America are making movies and 737 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: are becoming wildly successful doing it. That wasn't the case 738 00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:42,720 Speaker 1: ten years ago. So sometimes you know, there are blessings 739 00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 1: in disguise. All things work together for the good of 740 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 1: those who love God and live according to his pre 741 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 1: subs David Bertie. 742 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's too bad. I wanted to see 743 00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 3: this movie. But now it's like wamp wamp. You know, 744 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,360 Speaker 3: it's going in the snow white category unfortunately. So just 745 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 3: to be clear, Superman was an immigrants in the sense 746 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 3: that he was born wait for it, on planet Krypton 747 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 3: and you know, oh, that's right, it's fictional. But okay, 748 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 3: so let's go with that for a second. 749 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 5: Became legal alien or alien. 750 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 3: Well, technically he's DACA because he came to America as 751 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,959 Speaker 3: a baby, to Smallville, Kansas. If you want to play 752 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 3: that game, you know, there you go, Superman is DACA. 753 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,440 Speaker 3: There's your headline. Okay, but here's the thing. Look, the 754 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 3: problem here is that how do I say this Superman 755 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 3: is a legal immigrant. I'm playing their game, right. But 756 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 3: the point is is that the liberals do not make 757 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,760 Speaker 3: the distinction on purpose, right, the difference between a legal 758 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 3: immigrant and an illegal immigrant. We are a nation of immigrants. 759 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 3: We're not a nation of illegal immigrants unless you're Joe 760 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 3: Biden and you're running the presidency from ten to four. 761 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 3: And that's sketchy as well. So the point simply is 762 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 3: that they've got it all wrong and they love to 763 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 3: muddy the waters on this to people that don't don't 764 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:04,960 Speaker 3: understand the difference you would think between legal immigration and 765 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:09,359 Speaker 3: illegal immigration, between this nation of immigrants and a nation 766 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 3: of illegal immigrants. There's a big difference. 767 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 5: We know that. 768 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:16,240 Speaker 3: But for people that are not, they just go along 769 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 3: and they don't really think about it. 770 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 7: They're not really paying too much attention to it. And 771 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,080 Speaker 7: that's sad. 772 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 5: That's sad, you know. 773 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 6: I mean, you guys got so deep and all of 774 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,919 Speaker 6: your points are right. I'm one of those very shallow people. 775 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 6: When I go to the movies, I go for escapism. 776 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 6: It's to get a dude. Hey, I will admit it, like, 777 00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 6: I am shallow when it comes to film for me 778 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,040 Speaker 6: going to send them going to see a movie. It's 779 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 6: all about escapism. It's given me two two hours to 780 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 6: get away from my reality. And when you bring up 781 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 6: this sort of stuff, when you bring back reality to 782 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 6: try to infuse reality and the political climate of the 783 00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 6: country in a movie, I'm done. That's not what I'm 784 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:55,399 Speaker 6: there for. That's not what I want to do. It's 785 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,640 Speaker 6: just too much for me. So on that alone, I'm 786 00:42:57,680 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 6: probably not going to see this where otherwise might have 787 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 6: if you just left it at Superman and I could 788 00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:02,799 Speaker 6: have escaped to something. 789 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:03,960 Speaker 5: Go ahead, David, Sorry. 790 00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,439 Speaker 10: Ten seconds just to say. 791 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,479 Speaker 3: One of the actors in this movie was asked about 792 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 3: this controversy and you said, hey, guys, calm down, it's 793 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 3: just a movie. No, no, hold on, it's not just 794 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,960 Speaker 3: a movie. This is what they do. This is this, 795 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 3: I say, the subliminal stuff. But if you keep doing 796 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 3: it over and over and over again, it becomes a way, 797 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 3: It becomes a means to an end. And so I'm 798 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 3: not trying to make this whole big deal about the 799 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 3: Superman movie is going to be the death of all 800 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 3: of us, right, I'm not saying that. But when they 801 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,800 Speaker 3: just say it's just a movie, be careful. That's exactly 802 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 3: what they want you to believe. But there's something much 803 00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:35,360 Speaker 3: more sinister involved, and it. 804 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: Tells you what they think of their audience, just like 805 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 1: when the Democrat politicians talk to their constituency like that, 806 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 1: they think they're idiots. 807 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:43,280 Speaker 2: They think you're an idiot. 808 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: If you can't distinguish between legal and illegal, guess what, 809 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: you're an idiot, And so they think that you are 810 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:50,320 Speaker 1: an idiot. 811 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 2: And I don't want to. 812 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: Go to a movie that doesn't understand that I'm a 813 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: thinking individual with a lot bigger identities than my race, 814 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,439 Speaker 1: or my gender or my legal status. You know, I really, 815 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: I really think that it's high time for people to 816 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 1: just respect their audiences. And when I watch the news 817 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,439 Speaker 1: or when I watch stupid movies, I feel the same way. 818 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm gonna hop in our chat. I'd love to 819 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,040 Speaker 6: hear what you guys have to say out there as well. 820 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,080 Speaker 6: You too, Okay, doctor Gina, I'll be in the chat 821 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 6: momentarily coming up in our Moment of faith talking to 822 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 6: children about the deadly Texas floods. For young minds who 823 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,400 Speaker 6: understand many young campers lost their lives. It's beyond scary, 824 00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 6: but we'll talk about it right. 825 00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 5: After this break. 826 00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 3: God bless the us. 827 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 15: In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. 828 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 5: Welcome back to American Sunrise. 829 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 6: It is now time for our moment of faith, brought 830 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:07,280 Speaker 6: to us by Lee Greenwood and the God blessed the USA. 831 00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:12,839 Speaker 6: Bible in focus today, finding faith during tragic times. Communities 832 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 6: in Texas are continuing the recovery efforts following the deadly 833 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 6: floods there. We're actually hearing that this is going to 834 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 6: be a year's long process to rebuild. But faith, that's 835 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 6: a moment by moment thing, particularly during sorts of tragic 836 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 6: times that we're seeing right now there. For more, let's 837 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 6: bring in Christian actor, author and educator Kurt Cameron, and 838 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,439 Speaker 6: let's not forget father Kurk. 839 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 5: Good to see you, my friend. 840 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:42,919 Speaker 27: Hey, we can add grandfather to that too, grandfather, baby girl. 841 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 5: Thank you, brother. 842 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:44,840 Speaker 11: It's great to be with you this morning. 843 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 5: Man, it is always good to talk to you. 844 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 6: A lot of people know that you've written some children's 845 00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 6: books and they're rooted in your faith. So I think 846 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 6: this is a perfect opportunity to talk about how one 847 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 6: has a conversation with their children during tragic times like this. 848 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 6: The reality is many children can't get away from the 849 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 6: coverage or at least having some sort of idea of 850 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 6: what's happened there. 851 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 5: How do you start that conversation? 852 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 10: It's really really hard. 853 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 27: I mean, we are in the deep end when it 854 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 27: comes to trying to help children understand why things like 855 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 27: this happen. When we have a good, loving, and all 856 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 27: powerful God in heaven, I think what we need to 857 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,720 Speaker 27: start is with great empathy and identification with how they feel. 858 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 27: You know, I'm not a trained counselor, but as a 859 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 27: father and now a grandfather, I know that what helps 860 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 27: me most when I'm trying to deal with tragedy and 861 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 27: pain and grief and loss is to have someone who 862 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 27: will sit in the middle of it with me so 863 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 27: that I don't feel alone. And that's what I believe 864 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 27: our children need from us. They want us to be 865 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 27: there with them, to mourn with them, to weep with them, 866 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,400 Speaker 27: to feel what they feel, and to give them a 867 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,279 Speaker 27: safe place to talk about the questions that they have. 868 00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,880 Speaker 27: That's what God does with us and for us as adults. 869 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 27: We're wrestling and grappling with the big questions like why. 870 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 27: But you know, I've learned that even if we could 871 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 27: answer the question why why did God let this happen? 872 00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:22,879 Speaker 27: And I don't have the answer for that, I don't 873 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:25,719 Speaker 27: think that would satisfy the deepest need of our heart, 874 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 27: and that is to know that there is a God 875 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 27: who one day will wipe away every tear, he will 876 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 27: right every wrong, all things will be made new, and 877 00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 27: He is somehow behind the veil, bringing beauty out of 878 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 27: ashes and making all things good for those who love 879 00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 27: him and are called according to his purpose. So this 880 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:52,360 Speaker 27: is a life of faith. I can't live by sight 881 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 27: because I don't have a crystal ball and I can't 882 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 27: see behind the mysterious veil of the wisdom and providence 883 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 27: of God. So we've got to teach that to our children. 884 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 27: Every opportunity that we. 885 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 6: Have, and all it takes is a mustard seed to faith. 886 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 6: That's what the Bible says. Before I let you go, 887 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 6: I want to talk about August sixteenth. 888 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 5: I know you've got a big. 889 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 6: Event going new Brave Books event that's going to see 890 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 6: you at the library. 891 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 5: Talk about that.

For example, 957 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 1: there have been numerous phone calls to family members saying, oh, 958 00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: I found your child on my property or in a 959 00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 1: certain place, and if you'll just send me this much money, right, 960 00:52:04,719 --> 00:52:05,439 Speaker 1: I'll get your child. 961 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 2: This is These are. 962 00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: Unthinkable things that you know, criminal minds can only construe 963 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:16,400 Speaker 1: that the media isn't even commenting on or even presenting 964 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 1: in a lot of cases, and instead spending time trying 965 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 1: to figure out some way they can win the midterms 966 00:52:23,080 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: on the dead bodies of these children. 967 00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 6: Reprehensible terrence, No, absolutely, But one of the things that 968 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,800 Speaker 6: strikes me about President Trump through all of this, while 969 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 6: he is dealing and managing this sort of national disaster 970 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 6: and tragedy, he also is still continuing to work. 971 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 5: On so many different fronts. 972 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,360 Speaker 6: He's still sending out letters as it relates to teriffs 973 00:52:44,520 --> 00:52:48,560 Speaker 6: and working just solidify our economy. He is still out 974 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 6: there working to broker piece in the Middle East. He 975 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,239 Speaker 6: is still making phone calls and talking with Russia and 976 00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 6: Ukraine trying to broke her piece there. All of this 977 00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:00,960 Speaker 6: while dealing with the natural un national leagueas he's me disaster. 978 00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 5: His plate is. 979 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,839 Speaker 6: Uber full, and he is still able to handle it all. 980 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 6: I think that's something that not many people are talking about, 981 00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 6: and I think it's admirable. 982 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, he's not just the peace president, but 983 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 3: he's like the ultra multitasking president. I mean, presidents have 984 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 3: to multitask, but President Trump just does it literally twenty 985 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 3: four to seven, Well, let's talk more about the floods 986 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:26,960 Speaker 3: now and the finger pointing sadly that has begun. President 987 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,400 Speaker 3: Trump has signed a major disaster declaration for Kerr County, 988 00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 3: that was the county hit the hardest by this weekend's 989 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 3: deadly flooding. He does plan on visiting the region later 990 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,240 Speaker 3: this week, we believe. On Friday, the President also brushed 991 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 3: aside mounting criticism that federal budget cuts to whether and 992 00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:50,399 Speaker 3: emergency agencies had worsened the disaster. Still, questions are growing 993 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:52,600 Speaker 3: about why the public was not warren sooner and why 994 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 3: people were not evacuated from an area known to be 995 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 3: popular with campers and it is called flash flood Alley. 996 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 3: Trump claimed that the entire situation was a quote Biden's setup, 997 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:05,759 Speaker 3: which is what stalled any warnings that failed to reach 998 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 3: campers in time. There's a lot more context to those 999 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:11,240 Speaker 3: comments that he made about Biden joining us now with reaction. 1000 00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:14,359 Speaker 3: John Solomon, editor in chief of Just the News, John, 1001 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 3: there's a lot to sift through here. Your take on 1002 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,840 Speaker 3: what we're seeing politically and otherwise here. 1003 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:22,880 Speaker 30: Well, listen, the politics are always the same. If anything happened, 1004 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 30: Donald Trump is going to get blamed by the Democrats, 1005 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 30: and then you have to sort through the facts and 1006 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 30: find out what happened. And that's what we've been doing 1007 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 30: the last couple of days. So the Weather Service was 1008 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 30: properly staffed, In fact, it was overstaffed for this event. 1009 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 30: The warnings went out two days in advance, one day 1010 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:40,040 Speaker 30: in advance when the floods began rising in the wee 1011 00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,800 Speaker 30: hours of the morning. More National Weather Service Flash flood 1012 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 30: mornings went out. The system worked as it was supposed to. 1013 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 30: No budget cuts, no lack of staffing changed those developments. 1014 00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 30: Where you see the problem is down in the local 1015 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,160 Speaker 30: area in this valley, which is one of the deadliest 1016 00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 30: river valleys in America, where it has had enormous historical 1017 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:07,760 Speaker 30: flooding crises. There was a decision made in twenty twenty 1018 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 30: one not to proceed with a new early warning system 1019 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,960 Speaker 30: that would allow for early morning evacuations that would allow 1020 00:55:14,040 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 30: people to be woken up by like tornado like sirens 1021 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 30: to get people moving quicker. There was no evacuation plan 1022 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 30: on the county file for the camp itself, so you 1023 00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,799 Speaker 30: were starting from scratch at two or three in the 1024 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,440 Speaker 30: morning when a river rises twenty plus feet in ninety minutes. 1025 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,840 Speaker 30: That's what the censor showed. Twenty feet in ninety minutes. 1026 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 30: That is a biblical proportion flood. So the problem is downstream. 1027 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 30: The local communities decided not to invest in the next generation. 1028 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,560 Speaker 30: They had put a new generation of flood sensors in 1029 00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 30: which did work about ten to twelve years ago. After 1030 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:51,919 Speaker 30: a catastrophic flood in twenty fifteen, there was a chance 1031 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 30: to do something newer. They had a debate about it 1032 00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,799 Speaker 30: in twenty one and they didn't move on. But the 1033 00:55:56,840 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 30: federal government's system did not fail. Was a lack of 1034 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 30: warning going on. It's just the way the local community 1035 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 30: was prepared for. This event is going to be something 1036 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 30: we're all going to look at and hopefully fix for 1037 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:08,719 Speaker 30: the next pad. 1038 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: John, Since we have you, and you've written so much 1039 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,280 Speaker 1: about this and you know so much of the background, 1040 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,359 Speaker 1: I want to turn our attention for a moment from 1041 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,720 Speaker 1: the Texas flood to the storm that is Elon Musk. 1042 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:22,640 Speaker 1: Over the weekend, Musk declared war on both the Democrat 1043 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 1: and Republican Party, saying, quote, they are bankrupting our country 1044 00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: with waste and graft. 1045 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:29,440 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if you. 1046 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:31,360 Speaker 1: Make grift or what that was about But anyway, with 1047 00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:36,279 Speaker 1: that said, John, you can't build a third party. You 1048 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,920 Speaker 1: know he wants to do. 1049 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 2: A third party. 1050 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 1: But to you, is this just further evidence John of 1051 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:47,800 Speaker 1: his sort of political novice. Because this has been tried 1052 00:56:48,120 --> 00:56:50,360 Speaker 1: and with it, two things happen every single time. 1053 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 2: Number One, it divides. 1054 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,839 Speaker 1: The predominant party, which is the Republican Party. So I 1055 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: know that's the purpose of the left and perpetrating these rumors. 1056 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 2: But secondly, it marginalizes. 1057 00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:05,719 Speaker 1: The person who mentioned building another third party, knowing that 1058 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:07,360 Speaker 1: these things just don't work in America. 1059 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 2: Can you just explain this. 1060 00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,080 Speaker 30: Well, listen, what we know about third parties is that 1061 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 30: they prove to be spoilers. In twenty sixteen, the Green 1062 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 30: Party took some important votes away from Hillary Clinton in 1063 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 30: a tight race. In nineteen ninety two, a race I 1064 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:25,240 Speaker 30: covered very closely did some award winning journalism on Rossboro. 1065 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 30: Rossbrow took away enough votes to take the election away 1066 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 30: from George H. W. Bush and give it to Bill Clinton. 1067 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 30: So the only thing a third party can do historically 1068 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 30: is play the role of spoiler. And I think Elon 1069 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,600 Speaker 30: must knows that the last thing Elon Musk wants is 1070 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 30: a Democratic administration going forward. He knows what they'll do 1071 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 30: to his companies. He knows what they'll do to the economy, 1072 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 30: which his companies rely on. I think we should be 1073 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 30: looking at what Elon must not as what he's saying, 1074 00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 30: but as a negotiating point, very much like Donald Trump. 1075 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 30: I think he's negotiating with the Republican Party. Do you 1076 00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 30: want me to divide your vote twenty six or will 1077 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:02,640 Speaker 30: you cut more spending? And I think this is a 1078 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 30: pressure tactic to get the Republican Party to do much 1079 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,640 Speaker 30: more aggressive spending cuts than they've done thus far, and 1080 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,000 Speaker 30: to make sure that the economy doesn't tip into a 1081 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,800 Speaker 30: debt crisis or a dollar crisis. I think it'll turn 1082 00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:18,960 Speaker 30: out to be a negotiating ploy. Elon Musk knows that 1083 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 30: he's not going to be able to listen. Elon Musk 1084 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 30: couldn't even help win the Wisconsin Supreme Court race when 1085 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 30: you put all of his money into that. He knows 1086 00:58:25,080 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 30: he's a political novice. He knows where his limitations are. 1087 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 30: I think he's a CEO making a negotiation with the 1088 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 30: Republican Party. And if the Republican Party delivers more spending 1089 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 30: cuts like what Donald Trump and the House are doing 1090 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 30: right now. I don't think Elon Musk will have a 1091 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 30: fully fleshed out party in twenty six that. 1092 00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:42,439 Speaker 5: Will divide the vote. 1093 00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 30: I think he's negotiating John. 1094 00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 2: That is a fascinating point. 1095 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:49,560 Speaker 1: But then why aren't fiscal hawks all over him with this, 1096 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 1: supporting him. 1097 00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 30: Why aren't fiscals hawks cutting more from the budget? I mean, listen, 1098 00:58:54,200 --> 00:58:56,919 Speaker 30: they added two trillion dollars since twenty nineteen per year 1099 00:58:57,360 --> 00:58:57,840 Speaker 30: in the budget. 1100 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 6: I'm sorry, can I interrupt to real Brook Rowlins, the 1101 00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:02,680 Speaker 6: Agriculture Secretary of speaking, We. 1102 00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 5: Want to listen in really quickly right. 1103 00:59:04,760 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 29: Even in the stewardship and conservation of our American farmlands, 1104 00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 29: we're here to talk about that today, and we're here 1105 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 29: to address one particular facet of that stewardship, responding to 1106 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 29: one particular type of threat. The plain reality is that 1107 00:59:19,720 --> 00:59:23,880 Speaker 29: American agriculture, in American hands is a positive good, a 1108 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 29: rich blessing that we carefully tend, and upon which rests 1109 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 29: the sustenance and future of our republic. Every family, every home, 1110 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 29: every community depends upon what our farmers do, and they 1111 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 29: support and sustain us, not merely by keeping us materially fed, 1112 00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 29: but by keeping us spiritually strong. The farm's produce is 1113 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 29: not just a commodity. It is a way of life 1114 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,640 Speaker 29: that underpins America itself, and that's exactly why it is 1115 00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 29: under threat from criminals, from political adversaries, and from hostile 1116 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 29: regimes that understand our way of life as a profound 1117 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:06,240 Speaker 29: and existential threat to themselves. For them, agricultural lands and 1118 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 29: our farms, because they are a previous inheritance, are weapons 1119 01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,760 Speaker 29: to be turned against us. We see it again and again, 1120 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 29: from Chinese communist acquisition of American farmland, to criminal exploitation 1121 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 29: of our system of agriculture, to the theft of operational 1122 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 29: information required to work the land, and beyond. All of 1123 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 29: this takes what is profoundly good and turns. 1124 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 13: It towards evil purposes. 1125 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,040 Speaker 29: But November twenty twenty four signaled it's time for our 1126 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:39,479 Speaker 29: federal government to wake up and step up. And that's 1127 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 29: exactly what we are doing under the leadership of President 1128 01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 29: Donald Trump. With this announcement today, we are taking this 1129 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 29: purpose and our American farmland back. American agriculture is not 1130 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 29: just about feeding our families, but about protecting our nation 1131 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 29: and standing up to foreign adversaries who are buying our farmland, 1132 01:01:05,520 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 29: stealing our research, and creating dangerous vulnerabilities in the very 1133 01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 29: systems that sustain US reshoring and near shoring our food 1134 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 29: and agriculture supply chain is essential for our nation security. 1135 01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 29: In coordination with the White House, the Departments of Treasury, Defense, 1136 01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 29: Homeland Security, and Justice, as well as state governors, state 1137 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 29: agriculture commissioners, local tribal and territorial governments, today we announce 1138 01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 29: the USDA's. 1139 01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 13: National Farm Security Action Plan. 1140 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 29: This plan includes seven key action items, and there's a 1141 01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:41,840 Speaker 29: lot of people here that I want you to hear from, 1142 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 29: so I'm not going to go one by one, but. 1143 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:46,120 Speaker 13: Just very quickly.

And our hearts and prayers still continue 1266 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 18: to go out with Texas, and I'll be back down 1267 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:20,599 Speaker 18: there in a few days to spend more time with 1268 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 18: them and to help them continue to heal and with 1269 01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:27,120 Speaker 18: recovery efforts. The one thing I wanted to share with 1270 01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 18: all of you today is that long before I had 1271 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 18: the honor of serving as President Trump's Homeland Security Secretary, 1272 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:33,799 Speaker 18: I was a farmer. 1273 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 13: I was a rancher. 1274 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 18: In fact, I've worked on food policy for over thirty years, 1275 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 18: and I recognize that food policy is national security policy. 1276 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:46,640 Speaker 18: A country who cannot feed itself, cannot take care of itself, 1277 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:50,160 Speaker 18: and cannot provide for itself, is not secure, and that 1278 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:51,960 Speaker 18: we have to be able to feed ourselves to make 1279 01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 18: sure that no other country ever controls US. And I've 1280 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,760 Speaker 18: watched for decades as evil foreign governments, including China, have 1281 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:02,240 Speaker 18: come into this country and they've stolen our intellectual property, 1282 01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 18: They've manipulated their currency, They've treated us unfairly in trade deals. 1283 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 18: They've come in and purchased up our processing companies, stolen 1284 01:10:10,320 --> 01:10:12,639 Speaker 18: our genetics. In fact, I've worked in this building off 1285 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:16,679 Speaker 18: and on on commissions and projects and laws and different 1286 01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 18: statutes to ensure that China did not completely take control 1287 01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:23,479 Speaker 18: of our entire food supply chain, recognizing that the United 1288 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 18: States of America would be in jeopardy if that ever 1289 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 18: were to happen. I've watched them come in and establish 1290 01:10:29,880 --> 01:10:33,680 Speaker 18: a presence in stealing our chemicals and providing our fertilizer 1291 01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,320 Speaker 18: for US. And so two years ago, when I served 1292 01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:38,439 Speaker 18: as governor of South Dakota, we passed a law on 1293 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:42,280 Speaker 18: our state that said China and six other foreign evil governments. 1294 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 13: Would never own our farmland. 1295 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:45,639 Speaker 18: And I'm very proud to say that in South Dakota, 1296 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,960 Speaker 18: China does not own any of our land, nor will 1297 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:53,960 Speaker 18: they ever own any of our land. While I served 1298 01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:57,080 Speaker 18: in Congress, I worked hard to put in programs that 1299 01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 18: would help manage risk for farmers. I tell people all 1300 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:01,680 Speaker 18: the time, farmers are the biggest gamblers that I know. 1301 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 18: They go to a bank often times and they have 1302 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 18: to borrow money to buy land. Then they go back 1303 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:08,519 Speaker 18: to the bank and they need machinery to work that land, 1304 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:09,719 Speaker 18: and so they borrow some more. 1305 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 2: Money to do that. 1306 01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:12,040 Speaker 18: Then they have to go back and get an operating 1307 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,920 Speaker 18: note to purchase seed and fertilizer or chemical potentially, and 1308 01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:18,040 Speaker 18: they put it in the dirt and they hope that 1309 01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:20,360 Speaker 18: months later it'll rain, the sun will shine, and that 1310 01:11:20,360 --> 01:11:22,360 Speaker 18: there'll be something there that they can pick up that 1311 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,400 Speaker 18: they can sell, and then that the markets that are 1312 01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 18: beyond their control, that there will be a price there 1313 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:28,519 Speaker 18: that will help them cash flow, so they can go 1314 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:30,240 Speaker 18: back and do it all over again the next year. 1315 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,679 Speaker 18: They do that so that they can feed this country, 1316 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,120 Speaker 18: so that they can feed this world. In fact, growing 1317 01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:37,240 Speaker 18: up as a little girl and as a daughter of 1318 01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:39,599 Speaker 18: a farmer and a rancher, I always felt like God 1319 01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,120 Speaker 18: loved farmers more. I mean, if you look at the Bible, 1320 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:44,400 Speaker 18: look at Scripture, and you look over and over again, 1321 01:11:44,439 --> 01:11:47,160 Speaker 18: he talks about sowing and reaping and cattle on a 1322 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,720 Speaker 18: thousand hills and your barns to overflowing. And so I 1323 01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 18: feel like there's a special blessing on farmers and the 1324 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 18: fact that we have a president and that we have 1325 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:58,280 Speaker 18: a Secretary of Agriculture that recognizes the importance of food 1326 01:11:58,280 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 18: policy and what it means to this country. 1327 01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:01,960 Speaker 19: Security is so wonderful. 1328 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:05,920 Speaker 18: It's so such a change from what the previous administration 1329 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,880 Speaker 18: and how they prioritize our farmers and ranchers. So now 1330 01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:16,320 Speaker 18: as the Secretary. Now, as the Secretary of Homeland Security, 1331 01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:19,719 Speaker 18: I have responsibilities when it comes to securing our homeland, 1332 01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:22,559 Speaker 18: but many of those responsibilities have to do with securing 1333 01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:26,160 Speaker 18: our critical infrastructure. We have the responsibility for ten of 1334 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 18: our sixteen critical infrastructures, which means our electrical grid, our 1335 01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:33,959 Speaker 18: water supply chain, how we protect and run this country, 1336 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:35,639 Speaker 18: and what we do to make sure the people here 1337 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 18: are safe. But not just the people, the products and 1338 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:40,639 Speaker 18: goods that come in and out of this country. Our 1339 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,680 Speaker 18: customs and Border Protection units are the ones that all 1340 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:45,479 Speaker 18: of our goods come into this country and leave this 1341 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:49,200 Speaker 18: country on, and their investigations and how they inspect our 1342 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 18: egg products are critically important to make sure that we 1343 01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:54,400 Speaker 18: aren't facing any kind of threats from what kind of 1344 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 18: products may come into this country or what kind of 1345 01:12:57,040 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 18: terrorist acts might happen from goods that other countries may 1346 01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 18: wish to send to us that would harm our food supply. 1347 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:04,800 Speaker 18: We will continue to make sure that we have the 1348 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:07,759 Speaker 18: systems in place, the people in place, the experts in place, 1349 01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:10,680 Speaker 18: and the policies in place to make sure that this 1350 01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,680 Speaker 18: country always feeds itself and that we always have the 1351 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:15,599 Speaker 18: ability to grow our own food, and that we rely 1352 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,560 Speaker 18: on no one else to feed the people of the 1353 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 18: United States of America because it is a national security 1354 01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:23,960 Speaker 18: issue when a country cannot provide for itself. And we 1355 01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 18: will never let any other country control our food supply 1356 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:29,880 Speaker 18: or control our people because we will always be the 1357 01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:31,880 Speaker 18: great United States of America. 1358 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 19: Thank you. 1359 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:37,960 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1360 01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:41,479 Speaker 29: I was reminded when Christy was Governor Nome and we 1361 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:43,519 Speaker 29: were at America First Policy. Christy, you and I did 1362 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:46,479 Speaker 29: an event together on this very issue three years ago, 1363 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 29: and she, along with some of the other governors, really 1364 01:13:48,600 --> 01:13:49,120 Speaker 29: stepped up. 1365 01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 13: So thank you. Secretary Nome. 1366 01:13:51,360 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 29: Next, a longtime friend, a partner from the first Trump administration, and. 1367 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 13: Someone that who has been leading on this for years 1368 01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 13: and years. Please help me. Welcome White House Counselor Navarro. 1369 01:14:06,840 --> 01:14:10,200 Speaker 32: What a beautiful day to be out here, and it's 1370 01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 32: it's difficult, I think for a lot of Americans to 1371 01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:17,160 Speaker 32: wrap their head around what we're talking about today. We're 1372 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:21,160 Speaker 32: such a good and kind nation that has done so 1373 01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:22,000 Speaker 32: much for the. 1374 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:23,639 Speaker 7: Rest of the world over. 1375 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:29,160 Speaker 32: So many decades, including fighting two World wars on behalf 1376 01:14:29,200 --> 01:14:32,639 Speaker 32: of the rest of the world. But this is, this 1377 01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:40,200 Speaker 32: is so serious an issue. The art of war a 1378 01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:46,600 Speaker 32: book sun Zoo centuries old, says that the acme of 1379 01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:51,160 Speaker 32: warfare is to win without firing a shot. 1380 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:54,240 Speaker 10: You fast forward to. 1381 01:14:55,800 --> 01:14:59,759 Speaker 32: A book that was written by two high ranking military 1382 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 32: officials in China called Unrestricted Warfare, and you understand that 1383 01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:09,880 Speaker 32: we are indeed in a new world where kinetic warfare 1384 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:17,800 Speaker 32: is not the first choice of our rivals anymore. Rather, 1385 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:23,240 Speaker 32: it is things like sending us seeds or trying to 1386 01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:27,840 Speaker 32: steal our seeds, or trying to change the seeds. It 1387 01:15:28,000 --> 01:15:34,240 Speaker 32: is acquiring our supply chain in agriculture. It's setting up 1388 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:39,120 Speaker 32: spy shops on land next to military bases. 1389 01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:41,680 Speaker 7: You remember remember when that. 1390 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:50,559 Speaker 32: Balloon, Oh it was just a weather station. We seem 1391 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 32: so naive about so much of this, when in fact 1392 01:15:56,400 --> 01:16:01,960 Speaker 32: we have nations and bad actors trying to do bad 1393 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 32: things using our supply chains now as weapons. The world 1394 01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:12,440 Speaker 32: changed yet again on April second, when the Chinese embargoed 1395 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 32: critical minerals, not just on us, but for the rest 1396 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 32: of the world. The Russians now embargo things like neon 1397 01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:26,599 Speaker 32: and healing them and uranium. 1398 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:26,679 Speaker 10: As a tool. 1399 01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:30,479 Speaker 32: So we must be clear eyed about the threats. And 1400 01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:36,720 Speaker 32: I just have to congratulate Secretary Rollins for taking leadership 1401 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:42,439 Speaker 32: on an issue which has been troublesome for years. And 1402 01:16:42,680 --> 01:16:49,439 Speaker 32: we have governors here, Christineoman South Dakota just leadership on that. 1403 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:52,559 Speaker 32: She was doing that before anybody was paying paying attention. 1404 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:54,080 Speaker 7: We're gonna hear from. 1405 01:16:55,720 --> 01:17:00,559 Speaker 32: Governor Huckabee Arkansas has led the way on this issue 1406 01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 32: at the state level, even as the federal government has 1407 01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:10,240 Speaker 32: been silent about it up to this point. The last 1408 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:13,280 Speaker 32: thing is big things like Smithfield Foods. 1409 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 11: I don't even know this, but. 1410 01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:18,320 Speaker 32: This one really troubled me when it happened. But the 1411 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:23,799 Speaker 32: Chinese bought Smithfield Foods and basically control about an eighth. 1412 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 7: Of the world's pork supply now. 1413 01:17:27,120 --> 01:17:29,400 Speaker 3: And we worry, you know, we've had food inflation. 1414 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:32,639 Speaker 32: We worry when things happen that that can. 1415 01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 7: Be part of that. 1416 01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 32: And then the other key purchase which we allowed them 1417 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:39,960 Speaker 32: to do is Syngenta. Well, what is that it's a 1418 01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:45,040 Speaker 32: seed company, and in a world of ever changing pests 1419 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:49,120 Speaker 32: and things like that, and climate differences about where water 1420 01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:52,640 Speaker 32: is and things like that, seeds really can be the 1421 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 32: revolution that keeps the world fed, and China and our 1422 01:17:56,680 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 32: owns and key part of it. So what Secretary Rollins 1423 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:05,720 Speaker 32: is doing today, it's a historic day. She's putting down 1424 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:09,959 Speaker 32: the marker that the United States is no longer going. 1425 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:11,280 Speaker 11: To tolerate. 1426 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:14,519 Speaker 10: The attacks on our. 1427 01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:18,360 Speaker 32: Agricultural system, not just the land, but the supply chain 1428 01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:27,960 Speaker 32: as well. She deserves more than a hand, she deserves 1429 01:18:27,960 --> 01:18:31,120 Speaker 32: a helping hand here, and that's why the other aspects 1430 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 32: of our government. 1431 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:33,639 Speaker 10: Are behind us as well. 1432 01:18:34,280 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 32: So I appreciate being here on this absolutely gorgeous day, 1433 01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:41,760 Speaker 32: and again I commend the leadership of the people behind me. 1434 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 7: Thank you. 1435 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 13: Thank you Peter. 1436 01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:50,559 Speaker 29: Again, no one more of a warrior than he on 1437 01:18:50,640 --> 01:18:54,599 Speaker 29: these issues and many others, So thank you. Next, also 1438 01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:56,920 Speaker 29: from the first Trump administration, Now the governor of the 1439 01:18:56,960 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 29: great state of Arkansas, who another leader in this area, 1440 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,280 Speaker 29: please help me welcome Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders. 1441 01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:07,799 Speaker 10: Good morning. 1442 01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:12,280 Speaker 33: It is incredible to be here and be joined with 1443 01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 33: people who really understand what it means not just to 1444 01:19:17,080 --> 01:19:20,400 Speaker 33: love our country, but to be willing to do things 1445 01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:24,200 Speaker 33: that actually preserve, protect and allow us to pass on 1446 01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:27,519 Speaker 33: what makes our country so great to the next generation. 1447 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 33: And that's exactly what you see in the collaboration of 1448 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:35,040 Speaker 33: the people that are gathered behind me. I'm so proud 1449 01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:37,920 Speaker 33: of the fact that Arkansas was the first state in 1450 01:19:37,960 --> 01:19:42,160 Speaker 33: the country to kick a Chinese owned company off of 1451 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:45,599 Speaker 33: our farmland and out of our state, and we made 1452 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:53,600 Speaker 33: them pay for it very Trump asked, and in the 1453 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:57,800 Speaker 33: last couple of months, we've passed new legislation just this 1454 01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:02,320 Speaker 33: year allowing us to prohibit them from now not only 1455 01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:05,719 Speaker 33: owning farmland in our state, but from building or buying 1456 01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 33: land around our military bases and critical infrastructure. It is 1457 01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:13,200 Speaker 33: something that has to happen and something that states have 1458 01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:17,200 Speaker 33: been leading the way on, but unfortunately our states can't 1459 01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 33: do it alone. That's why events like today matter so much. 1460 01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:26,320 Speaker 33: That's why a leadership from people like Secretary Rollins matter 1461 01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:29,639 Speaker 33: so much. The fact that we now have a president 1462 01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:34,360 Speaker 33: who understands who our real enemies are and is willing 1463 01:20:34,439 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 33: to take them on is making a huge difference not 1464 01:20:37,840 --> 01:20:41,280 Speaker 33: just in our country but around the world. You know, 1465 01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:45,320 Speaker 33: we've talked a lot about today a country's ability to 1466 01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:48,840 Speaker 33: feed itself, but that's not the only place, and that's 1467 01:20:48,840 --> 01:20:51,160 Speaker 33: not the only role agriculture place. 1468 01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:52,719 Speaker 13: A country has. 1469 01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:56,519 Speaker 33: To be able to feed itself, fuel itself, and fight 1470 01:20:56,600 --> 01:21:01,560 Speaker 33: for itself to truly be free. But this group represents 1471 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:03,920 Speaker 33: is every component of that, and we now have a 1472 01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:07,600 Speaker 33: president who understands it and is willing to do everything 1473 01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:12,120 Speaker 33: within his power to make sure the United States continues 1474 01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:14,559 Speaker 33: to be the greatest country on the face of the planet. 1475 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:19,000 Speaker 33: And that doesn't happen by accident. That happens because we 1476 01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:21,960 Speaker 33: have great leadership. And I'm proud of the role that 1477 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:25,440 Speaker 33: Arkansas has been able to play, but I'm more excited 1478 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:29,559 Speaker 33: about the leadership that we now have in Washington that 1479 01:21:29,720 --> 01:21:33,160 Speaker 33: is going to take this to all fifty states and frankly, 1480 01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 33: all across the world. Having this group, there are no 1481 01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:39,080 Speaker 33: people I have greater confidence in. 1482 01:21:39,720 --> 01:21:40,360 Speaker 10: Secretary. 1483 01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:44,479 Speaker 33: Hegseeth leading the greatest military on the face of the planet, 1484 01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:51,600 Speaker 33: and nobody better suited to do so. He's tough, and 1485 01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:53,880 Speaker 33: I'm pretty sure he could take every member of the 1486 01:21:53,920 --> 01:21:57,880 Speaker 33: cabinet in an arm wrestling competition. But he's not the 1487 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:02,360 Speaker 33: only tough one up here. There's no chance that China 1488 01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 33: has going up against my friends Pambondy, Christy Nome, and 1489 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:10,200 Speaker 33: Brooke Rollins. They are not only the toughest women in Washington, 1490 01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:17,440 Speaker 33: there's some of the toughest people in all of America. 1491 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:21,639 Speaker 33: And this group of people, under the leadership of President Trump, 1492 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:24,920 Speaker 33: is not only going to protect our great country, but 1493 01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 33: they're going to make sure that we have the ability 1494 01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 33: to pass it on to the next generation behind us. 1495 01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:33,320 Speaker 33: I'm so grateful for their leadership, so thankful I get 1496 01:22:33,360 --> 01:22:35,840 Speaker 33: to be part of an effort that is going to 1497 01:22:35,920 --> 01:22:40,400 Speaker 33: make sure that the freedom of our country is protected 1498 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:43,640 Speaker 33: and preserved for every single American to enjoy. Thank you 1499 01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 33: for letting us be here, and thank you Brook for 1500 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:49,880 Speaker 33: putting this amazing event and this great plan together to 1501 01:22:49,920 --> 01:22:51,479 Speaker 33: help our country. Thank you so much. 1502 01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:52,640 Speaker 16: Thank you. 1503 01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:57,799 Speaker 13: Thank you, Governor Sanders. 1504 01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:00,320 Speaker 29: Also at the front of the battle, Governor Bill Lee 1505 01:23:00,520 --> 01:23:06,759 Speaker 29: of Tennessee, please help me welcome him. 1506 01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:08,320 Speaker 7: Thank you, Secretary Vallins. 1507 01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:14,360 Speaker 34: Let me just add my words of gratitude to President 1508 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 34: Trump and to his administration. And it's an honor to 1509 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:21,160 Speaker 34: stand here with these great leaders. 1510 01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:23,680 Speaker 11: I have served. 1511 01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:28,439 Speaker 34: As the governor originally in President Trump's first term and 1512 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:31,479 Speaker 34: then through the Biden administration and now again in the 1513 01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:37,320 Speaker 34: Trump administration. During the years when President Trump was not 1514 01:23:37,520 --> 01:23:41,360 Speaker 34: in office and governors like myself and Governor Sanders and 1515 01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:48,160 Speaker 34: Governor Pillen were working individually to secure our farmland. So 1516 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:52,880 Speaker 34: in Tennessee we have we have passed laws that prohibit ownership, 1517 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 34: that required investment if found, that imposed strict penalties for 1518 01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 34: those foreign adversaries who take our property. We have also 1519 01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:08,960 Speaker 34: passed the Farmland Conservation Act in order to make it 1520 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:12,479 Speaker 34: easier for the next generation of farmers to live and 1521 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:13,599 Speaker 34: operate in our state. 1522 01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:15,760 Speaker 10: But that work was really hard. 1523 01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:20,120 Speaker 34: In the previous Biden administration because we didn't have a 1524 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 34: partner who understood the threats and the challenges that we 1525 01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:28,639 Speaker 34: understand in Tennessee. So I'm so grateful for President Trump's 1526 01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 34: leadership here, especially for sexual A. Rollin's leadership, who she 1527 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:36,200 Speaker 34: and I connected early on. My family is a multi 1528 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:41,639 Speaker 34: generational farming family as well, and I understand that when 1529 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:46,479 Speaker 34: my grandfather was farming in Tennessee, the issues that we're talking. 1530 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:48,320 Speaker 7: About today didn't exist. 1531 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,719 Speaker 34: But for my grandchildren who live on our family farm 1532 01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 34: in Tennessee today, we understand that our farmland is not 1533 01:24:58,439 --> 01:24:59,000 Speaker 34: just dirt. 1534 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:02,439 Speaker 10: Is our national security, it. 1535 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:07,640 Speaker 34: Is our economic future, it is our children's heritage, and 1536 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 34: it is under threat. And the leaders here recognize that, 1537 01:25:12,880 --> 01:25:17,520 Speaker 34: and we've taken steps at the state level. But now refreshingly, 1538 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:22,639 Speaker 34: we have an administration in multiple cabinets who are coming 1539 01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 34: together collaboratively with governors across the states and making sure 1540 01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:33,160 Speaker 34: that America's future is preserved for the next generations. 1541 01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:33,640 Speaker 5: Thank you. 1542 01:25:38,960 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 29: Our first conversation, Governor Lee, and mine was not about 1543 01:25:41,920 --> 01:25:43,920 Speaker 29: how to save America. It was about our mutual love 1544 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:48,000 Speaker 29: of Herford cattle. So we are forever bonded. Listen, y'all. Next, 1545 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 29: another great governor, great leader on this issue, please help me. 1546 01:25:50,520 --> 01:25:56,960 Speaker 29: Welcome Governor Pillen of Nebraska. 1547 01:25:57,920 --> 01:26:03,519 Speaker 35: Well, good morning, and just an incredible shout out to 1548 01:26:03,640 --> 01:26:07,520 Speaker 35: everybody in the cabinet and Brooke and her incredible leadership, 1549 01:26:07,520 --> 01:26:10,880 Speaker 35: and a great thank you for President Trump assembling what 1550 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:15,360 Speaker 35: I view is extraordinary leaders across all the cabinet to 1551 01:26:16,400 --> 01:26:21,320 Speaker 35: absolutely make America great in a special special place. This 1552 01:26:21,360 --> 01:26:24,360 Speaker 35: is very, very touching for me to have the opportunity here. 1553 01:26:24,439 --> 01:26:26,920 Speaker 35: I'm the forty first governor of Nebraska. I'm the first 1554 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:31,400 Speaker 35: governor that's made my living for agriculture in one hundred years. 1555 01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:33,120 Speaker 31: I have. 1556 01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:38,000 Speaker 35: Simply sat and looked in my career of over forty 1557 01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:42,519 Speaker 35: years and saying, what on earth, what on earth is 1558 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:47,160 Speaker 35: going on with China. I believe this. I believe in 1559 01:26:47,280 --> 01:26:52,760 Speaker 35: family farm security. I believe in food security, and that 1560 01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 35: equates to national security. Nebraska is doing it's fair share. 1561 01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:00,639 Speaker 35: I believe we need to do more than our fair share. 1562 01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 35: So our first first year in twenty three, we were 1563 01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:08,320 Speaker 35: able to pass legislation that took all Chinese equipment off 1564 01:27:08,320 --> 01:27:10,599 Speaker 35: of all talent communications across the state. 1565 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:11,960 Speaker 7: That was the first step. 1566 01:27:12,040 --> 01:27:15,919 Speaker 35: Second step was making sure that no land is purchased 1567 01:27:15,920 --> 01:27:17,479 Speaker 35: by any foign adversaries in the. 1568 01:27:17,439 --> 01:27:18,400 Speaker 11: State of Nebraska. 1569 01:27:19,320 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 35: Third step is simply that we have direct conversations with 1570 01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 35: companies that are from China. Peter Sangenta called me, I 1571 01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:33,360 Speaker 35: wanted to come to the Capitol and have a meeting, 1572 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:35,400 Speaker 35: and I said, I have no interest in having a meeting, 1573 01:27:35,760 --> 01:27:38,679 Speaker 35: have no interest in you being in Nebraska. My suggestion 1574 01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:40,720 Speaker 35: would be to leave. My suggestion would be to get 1575 01:27:40,760 --> 01:27:43,600 Speaker 35: a different job.

You know, just 1601 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:18,320 Speaker 36: think about it right now though. Our farmers every day 1602 01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:20,639 Speaker 36: go out of this every morning to scratch the ground 1603 01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:21,160 Speaker 36: to try. 1604 01:29:20,960 --> 01:29:23,599 Speaker 11: To make a living and try to feed all of us. 1605 01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:25,880 Speaker 36: In this country, and they're very important.

Under the Democrat, Socialist, Communist Biden Party, it 1611 01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:44,640 Speaker 36: was devastating. Input cost high five dollars diesel instead of 1612 01:29:44,680 --> 01:29:47,240 Speaker 36: a seven hundred thousand dollars cotton picker. They're a million 1613 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:50,160 Speaker 36: dollars and a half. They wanted to put our farmers under. 1614 01:29:50,640 --> 01:29:53,479 Speaker 36: We lost one hundred and fifty thousand farms and twenty 1615 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,680 Speaker 36: five thousand farmers in the last few years. Folks, we 1616 01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,800 Speaker 36: are in trouble, in act, really trouble, and we just 1617 01:30:00,200 --> 01:30:02,679 Speaker 36: to help them with reference prices in the big beautiful 1618 01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:04,519 Speaker 36: bill we just passed. But they're gonna need a lot 1619 01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:06,960 Speaker 36: of help. They are scratching and clawing just to make 1620 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:11,720 Speaker 36: a living. Thanks for Brooke putting this on China is 1621 01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:15,160 Speaker 36: a threat. They're not a threat. They are dominating us 1622 01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:18,479 Speaker 36: in almost everything that they do because we've set back 1623 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,680 Speaker 36: and the politicians have been counting their money instead of 1624 01:30:21,720 --> 01:30:24,599 Speaker 36: doing what's right and helping this country stay in the front. 1625 01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 36: We've got to be number one. We can't be number two. 1626 01:30:27,800 --> 01:30:30,400 Speaker 36: We've got to fight back. They are coming into our 1627 01:30:30,439 --> 01:30:32,920 Speaker 36: country and buying our farm land. In my state of 1628 01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:37,480 Speaker 36: Alabama alone, they own two point two million acres of farmland. 1629 01:30:38,240 --> 01:30:43,600 Speaker 36: That's right in Alabama. Foreign adversaries. It's embarrassing of what 1630 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 36: we've done. Now, don't blame the farmers. The farmers have 1631 01:30:47,439 --> 01:30:49,320 Speaker 36: to make a living, and if they can't make a living, 1632 01:30:49,439 --> 01:30:50,760 Speaker 36: they have to sell their farm land. 1633 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:52,800 Speaker 11: The Biden administration. 1634 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,400 Speaker 36: Forced their farmers to sell their farmland by all the 1635 01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:58,600 Speaker 36: things they did to them. It's a disgrace. Brook is 1636 01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:01,120 Speaker 36: gonna bring that back. President Trump's gonna bring that back. 1637 01:31:01,479 --> 01:31:03,240 Speaker 36: The one thing I'm trying to do is I'm trying 1638 01:31:03,280 --> 01:31:06,200 Speaker 36: to pass the Farm Act Foreign Adversaries Act. 1639 01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:06,720 Speaker 11: What is that. 1640 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:09,080 Speaker 36: We have a group in this country called Syphius. 1641 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:10,679 Speaker 11: Syphius is a group of. 1642 01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:15,479 Speaker 36: Cabinet members that determine who buys what if it's a 1643 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:18,080 Speaker 36: foreign seal.

I want to thank President Trump for using 1782 01:38:25,800 --> 01:38:30,879 Speaker 37: every told his disposal to make America's food supply safer. 1783 01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:34,600 Speaker 37: The One Big Beautiful Bill include a historic investment in 1784 01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:39,280 Speaker 37: our agriculture value chain, including provisions from the Bipartisan Farm, 1785 01:38:39,320 --> 01:38:43,360 Speaker 37: Food and National Security Act.

He'd be very proud. All right, 1806 01:39:52,640 --> 01:39:53,920 Speaker 29: we'll take some questions from the press. 1807 01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:58,080 Speaker 39: Thank you, Secretary Rowlinds. Mary Margaret with the Daily Wire. 1808 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:00,960 Speaker 39: Two questions, if that's okay. First of all, I'm seeing 1809 01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,280 Speaker 39: on this map that there's a lot of Chinese owned 1810 01:40:03,280 --> 01:40:07,400 Speaker 39: farmland in California. Are you looking into the severity of 1811 01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:09,120 Speaker 39: that and what those consequences are? 1812 01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:12,160 Speaker 13: And then number two, the President. 1813 01:40:11,720 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 39: Has expressed concerns about how mass deportations would affect the 1814 01:40:15,280 --> 01:40:17,960 Speaker 39: farm industry. Do you have concerns on this front? And 1815 01:40:18,000 --> 01:40:20,439 Speaker 39: are you hearing about some of these top conservatives saying 1816 01:40:20,880 --> 01:40:23,240 Speaker 39: that there's a push for amnesty for this workforce. 1817 01:40:23,640 --> 01:40:24,760 Speaker 13: Well, thank you for those questions. 1818 01:40:24,840 --> 01:40:27,320 Speaker 29: The first thing I'll say on California, and I'd love 1819 01:40:27,360 --> 01:40:29,040 Speaker 29: for anyone else to join me if they have thoughts 1820 01:40:29,040 --> 01:40:31,679 Speaker 29: on that. Is this that a lot of people said, well, 1821 01:40:31,720 --> 01:40:34,080 Speaker 29: look at the Red states are the ones leading the way. 1822 01:40:34,120 --> 01:40:35,400 Speaker 13: The Red states are the ones. 1823 01:40:35,200 --> 01:40:38,920 Speaker 29: That are banning the Chinese owned farmland, and this is true. 1824 01:40:39,360 --> 01:40:42,400 Speaker 29: But I have to believe that even the Democrat governors 1825 01:40:42,439 --> 01:40:45,880 Speaker 29: and even the Blue States realize what a massive threat 1826 01:40:45,920 --> 01:40:49,479 Speaker 29: this is to national security and how important it is. 1827 01:40:49,560 --> 01:40:52,320 Speaker 29: So we plan to work with everyone, no matter which party, 1828 01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:54,120 Speaker 29: no matter which side of the aisle they are from, 1829 01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:56,920 Speaker 29: to ensure that the people of this country and our 1830 01:40:56,960 --> 01:41:00,519 Speaker 29: agriculture farmland is protected. The second question, and I appreciate 1831 01:41:00,520 --> 01:41:02,439 Speaker 29: you bringing that up. There's been a lot of noise 1832 01:41:02,479 --> 01:41:04,440 Speaker 29: in the last few days and a lot of questions 1833 01:41:04,760 --> 01:41:08,160 Speaker 29: about where the President stands in his vision for farm labor. 1834 01:41:08,439 --> 01:41:10,360 Speaker 29: The first thing I'll say is the President has been 1835 01:41:10,400 --> 01:41:13,320 Speaker 29: unequivocal that there will be no amnesty, and I think 1836 01:41:13,320 --> 01:41:16,000 Speaker 29: that's very very important. I and the rest of our 1837 01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 29: cabinet certainly support that, effectuate that, and make sure that 1838 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:22,840 Speaker 29: happens every single day. The second thing, to your question 1839 01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:25,800 Speaker 29: about mass deportations, the President and I have spoken about 1840 01:41:25,800 --> 01:41:28,680 Speaker 29: that once or twice, and he has always been of 1841 01:41:28,720 --> 01:41:30,760 Speaker 29: the mindset that at the end of the day, the 1842 01:41:30,840 --> 01:41:33,920 Speaker 29: promise to America to ensure that we have a one 1843 01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 29: hundred percent American workforce stands, but we must be strategic 1844 01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 29: and how we are implementing the mass deportation so is 1845 01:41:41,600 --> 01:41:45,040 Speaker 29: not to compromise our food supply. Ultimately, the answer on 1846 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:49,360 Speaker 29: this is automation, also some reform within the current governing structure. 1847 01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:51,839 Speaker 29: And then also when you think about there are thirty 1848 01:41:51,880 --> 01:41:55,720 Speaker 29: four million able bodied adults in our medicaid program, there 1849 01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:58,080 Speaker 29: are plenty of workers in America, but we just have 1850 01:41:58,160 --> 01:42:01,600 Speaker 29: to make sure we're not compromising today, especially in the 1851 01:42:01,640 --> 01:42:04,680 Speaker 29: context of everything we're thinking about right now. So no 1852 01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:08,920 Speaker 29: amnesty under any circumstances. Mass deportations continue, but in a 1853 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:12,360 Speaker 29: strategic and intentional way as we move our workforce toward 1854 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:15,919 Speaker 29: more automation and toward a one hundred percent American workforce. 1855 01:42:16,160 --> 01:42:19,320 Speaker 29: And ultimately it's the wonderful members of Congress behind me 1856 01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 29: who are taking this on on the fixing the current 1857 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:24,160 Speaker 29: immigration system. 1858 01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:29,840 Speaker 13: So thank you so much, Madam Secretary. 1859 01:42:30,439 --> 01:42:33,160 Speaker 40: Thank you, first of all, condulence's thoughts and prayers. All 1860 01:42:33,240 --> 01:42:35,040 Speaker 40: the folks back in Texas sit near and dear to 1861 01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:38,759 Speaker 40: your heart. A couple quick thoughts congratulations on the success 1862 01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:41,840 Speaker 40: of getting the at least partially the death tax were 1863 01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:45,400 Speaker 40: pealed in the BBB because as we all know, it 1864 01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:50,559 Speaker 40: affects farmers disproportionately to a great extent. Congratulations on that. Also, 1865 01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:53,240 Speaker 40: egg prices today just right now hit two dollars and 1866 01:42:53,280 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 40: forty nine cents a dozen, a clear fifty five percent 1867 01:42:58,080 --> 01:43:01,519 Speaker 40: below the failed by none price. And we all know 1868 01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:03,400 Speaker 40: it's not just about eggs, but it has become a 1869 01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:07,160 Speaker 40: metaphor for inflation. So congratulations because food inflation is coming down. 1870 01:43:07,240 --> 01:43:09,160 Speaker 5: That's a festinate to you. 1871 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:09,760 Speaker 13: Thank you. 1872 01:43:10,720 --> 01:43:13,439 Speaker 40: The thought and the question follow up is what a 1873 01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:17,080 Speaker 40: great group you put together here, wonderful, wonderful idea, surprising 1874 01:43:17,120 --> 01:43:19,519 Speaker 40: it hasn't been done sooner.

One of 1898 01:44:21,760 --> 01:44:23,960 Speaker 29: the chief lessons I've learned over many years is never 1899 01:44:23,960 --> 01:44:27,679 Speaker 29: get ahead of President Trump.
