1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Hour two Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred and nine four one. 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Shawn is on number if you want to be a 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: part of the program. Former House Speaker KNW. King Rich, 4 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: you know, blaming obviously the ongoing shutdown, the radicals have 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:16,959 Speaker 1: taken over the Democratic Party and blaming Schumer and said 6 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Schumer saw this as an opportunity to hold the entire 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: country hostage to prove that Democrats could get a supposed win. 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: This has been Schumer his position on government shutdowns the 9 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: entire time he's been in the US Senate. This is 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 1: critical to understanding, you know, how dominant the mom Donnie 11 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:42,640 Speaker 1: aoc Wing, Jasmine Crockett squad wing is and how powerful 12 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: they are that Schumer is leader in name only like 13 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 1: Hakeem Jeffrey's leader in name only. 14 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 2: Listen, what if I persuaded my call is to say 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 2: I'm going to shut the government down. I am going 16 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 2: to not pay our bills unless I. 17 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 3: Get my way. 18 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 2: It's a politics of idiocy, of confrontation, of paralysis. It's 19 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 2: sort of like this, someone goes into your house, takes 20 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 2: your wife and children hostage, and then says, let's negotiate 21 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: over the price of your house. You know, we could 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: do the same thing on immigration. We could we believe 23 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,759 Speaker 2: strongly in immigration reform. We could say we're shutting down 24 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: the government. We're not going to raise the debt ceiling 25 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 2: until you pass immigration reform. It would be governmental chaos. 26 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 2: Speaker McCarthy needs to stop letting the MAGA radicals drive 27 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: his decisions and do the obvious and sensible thing, follow 28 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 2: the Senate's lead and pass a bipartisan cr to prevent 29 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 2: this reckless shutdown. We do not want to let a 30 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: Trump temper tantrum govern our policies or cause the shutdown 31 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 2: of a government which everyone on both sides of the 32 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: aisles knows is the wrong idea. 33 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: All right, So that's been his history until now. Now 34 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: it's fascinating to watch this unfold because Democrats are at 35 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: each other's throat, because now you have, you know, enough 36 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: Democrats in the Senate to open up the government. We 37 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: see what's happening with their traffic controllers with snap benefits, 38 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: forty two million Americans impacted by that. Hakim Jeffrey's, when 39 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 1: pressed on supporting a bill that would include Obamacare subsidies, 40 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: says that they're not prepared to support a promise from folks. 41 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: This is their healthcare bill. It's called Obamacare. They're the 42 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: ones that shoved it down our nation's throat, and John 43 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: McCain then, unfortunately had the opportunity to get rid of it, 44 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: and his animist towards Donald Trump got in the way. 45 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: Listen to Hakeem another Leader in name only, Leader Jeffery 46 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: is just very quickly yes or no? Do you rule 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: out supporting a bill that would include a promise to 48 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: vote on Obamacare subsidies? 49 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 3: Yes or no. 50 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: I don't think that. I don't think that the House 51 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 4: Democratic Caucus is prepared to support a promise, a wing, 52 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 4: and a prayer from folks who have been devastating the 53 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 4: healthcare of the American people for years. 54 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: They're the ones that passed the bill. I kept warning 55 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: at the time Obamacare would be a disaster. You know, 56 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 1: millions lost their doctors, millions lost their plans. Forty plus 57 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: percent of the country has one Obamacare exchange option. And 58 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: you know the big promise, the average family will save 59 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred dollars per family per year. Every family's 60 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: paying over three hundred percent more. Here's Achem Jeffries again, 61 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: Leader in name Only, No matter what legislation comes from 62 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: the Senate, they're voting no, doesn't matter what they pass. 63 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 4: And far too many people are struggling to live paycheck 64 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 4: to paycheck. They can't thrive, they can barely survive. And 65 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 4: that's why Democrats have been waging this fight, and we'll 66 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 4: continue to wage this fight no matter what comes over 67 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 4: to us from the United States Senate to the House 68 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 4: of Representatives at some point this week. And so as 69 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 4: House Democrats, we know we're on the right side of 70 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 4: this fight, the right side of the American people, and 71 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 4: we're not going to support partisan Republican spending bill that 72 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 4: continues to gut the healthcare of the American people. And 73 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 4: we're going to continue the fight to extend the Affordable 74 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 4: Care Act tax credits. 75 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: Now, remember they're looking to extend health benefits that were 76 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: designed to be temporary for COVID for people eight hundred 77 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: percent above the poverty line. Okay, that is unsustainable. They're 78 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: demanding to keep the government open seven weeks, one and 79 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: a half trillion dollars, including health care for illegal immigrants, 80 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: including funding MPR and PBS, including DEI programs abroad. That's 81 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: all been part of their spending plan. The problem they 82 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: have is the party has been radicalized. Even Tim Kaine, 83 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: you know, who represents Virginia and all the DC employees 84 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: in his state that have been laid off. He voted 85 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: in the shutdown because it's not working any way. Joining 86 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 1: us now, Senator Mark Wayne mull and our friend from Oklahoma, 87 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: Senator how. 88 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: Are you, Sean? I'm doing good. How are you doing? 89 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: I'm good? 90 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: Ten days in the Senate, but at least finally you 91 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: make the progress. You know, I've never been a big 92 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: believer that government shutdowns matter much until we get but 93 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: we've never had one goal this long and it be 94 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: this impactful to so many Americans at once. 95 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 3: This is getting bad. 96 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, right today, we're going to have more cancellations on 97 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 5: flights than anytime in the American history other than nine 98 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 5: to eleven. And it's all because of the shutdown that 99 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 5: we find ourselves in. And now the Democrats and by 100 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 5: the way, the Democrats didn't get anything to reopen the government. 101 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 5: Leader Thune offered them a ACA vote, but couldn't guarantee 102 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 5: which ACA affordable healthcare, which is completely unaffordable. They he 103 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 5: offered that back October sixteenth. We have been shut down 104 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 5: for weeks because for their own personal leverage. The whole 105 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 5: plan was to get it past on November election so 106 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 5: they could vote for their communist mayor in New York. 107 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 5: But the truth is they're out there now spending it. 108 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 5: And Sean, you were alluding this just a second ago. 109 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 5: They're out there right now spending saying it's all about 110 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 5: health care. It's about the Republican Party is to blame 111 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 5: for having unaffordable health care. And you remember President Obama 112 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 5: said that our premiums were going to go down by 113 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 5: twenty five percent. Today we stand at two hundred and 114 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 5: twenty one percent increase. And even if we were to 115 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 5: extend the premium tax that the Democrats voted for unanimously 116 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 5: back in twenty one, they made it design to expire. 117 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 5: Even if we did extend it, your premiums would still 118 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 5: go up eleven to twelve percent. So it's not affordable. 119 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 5: It's not working. And I think President Trump was absolutely 120 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 5: brilliant when he said, hey, instead of giving the premium 121 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 5: tax to the insurance companies, how out we give it 122 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 5: straight to the American people and let them use it 123 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 5: to buy the insurers plan they want. I thought that 124 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 5: was absolutely brilliant. 125 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: The President said that, I mean, there's so many innovative, 126 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: creative ways to redesign healthcare, and maybe this will become 127 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: part of the debate, you know, post you know, the 128 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: reopening of the government, and you know that would include 129 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: healthcare cooperatives, healthcare savings accounts. You know, we really we 130 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: have great innovation in healthcare. I've had on this program 131 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: many times. Doctor Josh Umber, he's at a Wichita, Kansas. 132 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: You know, he had a healthcare cooperative, twenty four hour 133 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: access to doctors that would take care of most things, 134 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: including you'd get he would negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies 135 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: at a ninety plus percent discount and fifty bucks a 136 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: month for adults, ten dollars a month for children. It 137 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: includes telemedicine a lot of times you don't need to 138 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: go to a doctor or an emergency room. A lot 139 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 1: can be done with modern technology and FaceTime for crying 140 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: out loud, and you know, all of these things save 141 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: money ultimately. But you know, people funneled into a government 142 00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: system where promises were made and none of them were kept. 143 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 1: Is has not worked, and they're kind of trying to 144 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: die on this hill of turning something that they designed 145 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: to be temporary into something permanent. 146 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 5: Well, I think it's absurd that they're trying to turn 147 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 5: the healthcare crisis against on the Republican's fault. But keep 148 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 5: in mind, you had a community organizer, the one that 149 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 5: came up with this healthcare plan and Nancy Plosi who said, 150 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 5: if you want to know what's in it, pass it, 151 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 5: then you can read it. If we want to fix 152 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 5: a healthcare system, you can't fix this. You can't fix 153 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 5: affordable health care. That's like trying to fix a bone motor. 154 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 5: You got to rebuild a bone motor. In this Fickler case, 155 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 5: you need President Trump. He's a business guy. He knows 156 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 5: how to make business successful. He will bring in the 157 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 5: brightest minds, the best minds together and negotiate a deal 158 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 5: that will actually get American healthcare working for the American 159 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 5: peace people, not working for consolidation and large insurance companies. 160 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 5: And listen, I'm not against companies being profitable. I'm a capitalist. 161 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 5: I believe in companies being profitable they hire employees. But 162 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 5: there's no reason why we would continue to subsidize insurance 163 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 5: companies that are making record profits right now. The reason 164 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 5: why We had the Democrats passive premium tax program last 165 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty one during COVID was because the insurance 166 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 5: companies said they were going to go broke because of 167 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 5: the high expensive cost. Now even if you did away 168 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 5: with that, they would still be making around fifteen percent 169 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 5: profit even if you took out their premium tax, So 170 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 5: we don't need to be subsidizing them anymore. What we 171 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 5: need to be doing is looking at why is self 172 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 5: care costs continuously and going through the roof. Why not 173 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 5: take a deep dive look underneath the hood and say, 174 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 5: let's scrap this program altogether and build a program back 175 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 5: by getting a Marcus working and allowing people to have choice, 176 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 5: choice in their market and what fits them best, rather 177 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 5: than requiring all programs to have maternity care. I mean, 178 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 5: it's absurd with the regulations they put on it because 179 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 5: of a community organizer trying to fix our healthcare system. 180 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: Well I said in the beginning, and remember that there 181 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: was a mandate associated with us where everybody was ultimately 182 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 1: going to be funneled into a government system. 183 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 3: This was really. 184 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Their big step towards universal healthcare or a single payer system, 185 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: which is what I think they ultimately wanted, and I 186 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: think what they ultimately want now looks like they're progressing 187 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: towards reopening the government, which means if they would expedite 188 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: it in the Senate, then the House could open the 189 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: government as early as Wednesday. 190 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 3: Have you spoken to these senators? 191 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: Are they going to stand firm now at this point 192 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: that they took this test vote last night? 193 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, we had thirteen Democrat senators had agreed to vote 194 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 5: with us last week as long as they could get 195 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 5: past the two day election. That was their whole plan 196 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 5: they had. They said that Chuck Schumer this is a quote, 197 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 5: would take off the handcuffs and allow themselves plus Dick 198 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 5: Durbin to vote for it. After the Tuesday election, they 199 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 5: came out with just ridiculous demands, I mean sewn. They 200 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 5: came in and they wanted the President to rescind all 201 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 5: pocket decisions and guarantee he wouldn't do it for another year. 202 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 5: He wanted the President to reinstate the security clearances from 203 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 5: all those that he has tripped the security clearances from. 204 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 5: They wanted a guarantee that the guarantee outcome on the 205 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 5: ACA vote and that the House would pick it up. 206 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 5: I mean just ridiculous stuff. We told him a go 207 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 5: pound sand and it literally took user point three seconds 208 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 5: to reject their offer. And then because of the mounting 209 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 5: pressure of their body of their especially with Tim Kaine 210 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 5: with a three hundred and fifty thousand federal employees he 211 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 5: has in Virginia, the mounting pressure finally came back. And 212 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 5: what we settled on is, well, we give you an 213 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 5: ACA vote. That's it. And so we know that these 214 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 5: eight that's already walked the plank, they're going to stay strong. 215 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 5: The question is the other five that said they were 216 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 5: going to vote with us, are they going to have 217 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 5: the backbone to actually do what's right for the American 218 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 5: people rather than continue using the American people as hossage 219 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 5: and leverage points. 220 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: Okay, you're in the room, you're in the clok groom, 221 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 1: you're on the sun of floor. 222 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 3: What are you hearing? 223 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 5: Well, technically, if this thing, if they run out every hour, 224 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 5: they could run this thing all the way to Friday 225 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 5: evening because of the amendment boats they could have on it. 226 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 5: If they just run out the debate time, it would 227 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 5: be Wednesday. Because remember right now we're on the motion 228 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 5: to proceed. So the Motion proceed comes with a thirty 229 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 5: hour debate time. Once we end with the motion proceed, 230 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 5: we got to mend the House clean CR because we're 231 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 5: going to replace all. Instead of having twelve continued resolution 232 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 5: of funding bills, we're going to have nine and then 233 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 5: three funding bills. It's going to be at present Trump levels, 234 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 5: which means this ag mil coon which is military and alledge. 235 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 5: And then we got to change the date, so we 236 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 5: got to change the House version. Once we do that, 237 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 5: it opens another thirty hour debate and that since we're 238 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 5: open it to mend, it can be amended. Right now, 239 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 5: we have a problem with Ran Paul you know, or 240 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 5: Senator from Kentucky. I to take a deep breath there. 241 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 5: He is demanding a HEMP vote on this because he 242 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 5: wants to up the THHD levels and HEMP, which could 243 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 5: really draw the process out. If he does that, then 244 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 5: we could see this thing could roll out all the 245 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 5: way to Friday. We're trying to push back if he 246 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 5: demands to have to have this amendment vote. I have 247 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 5: said no. He said he will hold it up, he 248 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 5: won't release the debate time. I don't at this point, 249 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 5: I really don't care. Ran is on his own heel. 250 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 5: To think he's going to hold the American people hostage 251 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 5: like them over him is ridiculous. But we don't need 252 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 5: his vote, so we can go around him. We haven't 253 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,439 Speaker 5: had his vote this sole time, so that's not important 254 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 5: to us. But if he if he demands that, then 255 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 5: he could drag that out a lot further. The Democrats 256 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 5: have told us, the ones I've talked to today, they're 257 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 5: ready to go home. They're done. They already know they 258 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 5: lost the vote, so they went radio silent today. They're 259 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 5: not talking to us. Least the leadership isn't. The ones 260 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 5: I'm talking to said they're, well, they're willing to yield 261 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 5: back to time and we'd be done today and then 262 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 5: they'd call back the House. The House would go to 263 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 5: on a Wednesday, and we could reopen the government. 264 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: But it takes that would be a best case scenario. 265 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: Too many people of suffering, Senator, and a clean cr 266 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: is what Democrats always said they wanted. So, uh, Senator 267 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: Mark way Mullen, Well, it's gonna be fascinating. Uh. 268 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 3: I don't know. 269 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: I think this party's gone, you know, radical suicidal at 270 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: this point. But if they think this is gonna you know, 271 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: Americans are getting angry and they have every right to 272 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: be a clean cr funding the government and current levels 273 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: is exactly what Democrats always said they wanted. Thank you, sir, 274 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: appreciate it. 275 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 3: Uh. 276 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 1: You know it's when I say them Democratic Party is hijacked. 277 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: You need look no further than Zoron Marxist Kami Mamdani. 278 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: You know, we played remarks last week of AOC, you know, 279 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: basically telling Chuck Schumer get out of the way, the 280 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: old guard has to make way for the new guard, 281 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: and then went straight at Hakim Jefferies telling him, you know, well, 282 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 1: Mamdani is the future of the party. I mean that, 283 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: that to me is a very critical moment. And you 284 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: know the leaders of the Democratic Party now, the poster 285 00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: child of the Democratic Party would be you know, Zoron 286 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: Mamdani and AOC. 287 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 3: She's I've been saying for years, she's the leader. You know. 288 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi at the time was leader, you know, a 289 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: speaker in name only. 290 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 3: She had no power. 291 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: Hakiem Jeffries now has no power, and the Senate, Chucky 292 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: Schumer is done, It's over. I think Hakim Jefferies is 293 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: very likely done himself. And then you have Grandpa Bernie, 294 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: you know that this is his moment. He now is 295 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: the dominant voice within inside the Democratic you know, the 296 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 1: radical Democratic socialists that run this party. Here's what he said, 297 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: speaking out against the deal to end the shutdown. I mean, 298 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter that, you know, nearly forty two million 299 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: Americans and not getting food benefits that they desperately need. 300 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 1: I thought Democrats cared about the poor. Apparently not when 301 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: it matters. You know, if they want political leverage, they 302 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: acknowledge people who get hurt, but we need the leverage. 303 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: That's what they've kept saying openly. Now here's what he said. 304 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 6: Yet tonight, what this Senate is about to do is 305 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 6: make a horrific situation even worse. 306 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 7: So let's be clear what this vote is about. 307 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 6: If this vote succeeds, over twenty million Americans are going 308 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 6: to see at least a doubling in their premiums in 309 00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 6: the Affordable Care Act. 310 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 7: In my statemum minded throughout this country. 311 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 6: For certain groups of people, it will be a tripling 312 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,159 Speaker 6: and a quadrupling of their premiums. 313 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 7: And my friends, know what you are voting on. 314 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 6: Studies are out there that when you throw fifteen million 315 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 6: people off healthcare. Some fifty thousand of our fellow Americans 316 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 6: will die unnecessarily every single year. Anyone think that's funny, 317 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 6: something to laugh at something if you just go past, 318 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 6: I don't fifty thousand Americans die unnecessarily. 319 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: I mean this rhetorical insanity. You know, in the minds 320 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: of Democrats, the only answer is going to be a 321 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: government answer. Meanwhile, Obamacare has been proven to have failed spectacularly. 322 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: You know, just like most government programs, they make these 323 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 1: glorious promises, cradle to grave, wound to the tomb, Social 324 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: Security lock box rated money spent, headed towards insolvency. How's 325 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 1: Medicaid doing same problem, headed towards insolvency? Thirty eight trillion 326 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:12,680 Speaker 1: in debt. We're putting that on our children and grandchildren. 327 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: How are your government schools doing not very well, especially 328 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: in blue states and blue towns and cities around the country. 329 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: How law and order and safety and security under the 330 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: defund dismantled no bill reimagine the police people not very well. 331 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: You know, the military is about it, and even that 332 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: deteriorated when Democrats were in power. And this is what 333 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: they want to convince you. You know, when millions lost 334 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 1: their doctors plans, and you're paying three hundred percent on average, 335 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: more than you were paying when you were told you'd 336 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: save on average twenty five hundred dollars a year. We're 337 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:50,440 Speaker 1: now going to double down on dumb, dumber, and stupid 338 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: when there are creative, free market solutions. If we'd only think, 339 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 1: you know, telemedicine should be a part of the equation. 340 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: Now moving forward, you know, artificial intelligence can can detect, 341 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: you know, disease early. You know, in five years from now, 342 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: your odds of living to one hundred are going to 343 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: go up exponentially. Anyway, let's get to our phones. Marie 344 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: is in Pennsylvania. Hey, Marie, how are you glad you called?

Of course I didn't vote 348 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 8: for John, but I have been very impressed with him, 349 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,879 Speaker 8: and I was just curious if you have any insights 350 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 8: as to his real influence with his colleagues in Washington 351 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 8: this last time. 352 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,679 Speaker 1: He's by the way, he's on TV tonight and he 353 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: is he surprised me too. And and I like doctor Roz. 354 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: Doctor Oz, you know, got killed by Doug Mostriano, who 355 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: you know, took a position on abortion that I think 356 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: it just was out of sync with the people of Pennsylvania. 357 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: I'm not getting into that issue right now. And you know, 358 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: he lost like fourteen points, the largest margin to Joshapiro 359 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: of for against the non incumbent governor since the nineteen forties. 360 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: And Oz lost by three or three or four percent. 361 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 1: And you know, Mastriano lost by fourteen There's only so 362 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,680 Speaker 1: much ticket switching that was gonna go on. But he's 363 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 1: been a real pleasant surprise. And I will tell you 364 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 1: haven't spoken to him privately and on the air. He's 365 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: a nice guy and he's reasonable. He does not like 366 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: this nazi, fascist, racist hitler Stalin Mussolini, you know, insightful 367 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: and dehumanizing rhetoric. He has supported closed borders, he has 368 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: supported you know, he understands radical Islamis, he understands Israel's 369 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: right to defend itself. I just find him an old school, 370 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: old fashioned, you know, Democrat, which is almost nonexistent today. 371 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: The fact that we even got to the longest you 372 00:20:54,119 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 1: know shutdown in history now impacting so many millions of Americans, 373 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: and but for just the bare minimum, you know, we're 374 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: going to get the government open. It looks like just 375 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: tells you everything you need to know about his party. 376 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: He's not been a part of that. And I tipped 377 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 1: my hat to him, you know, But I didn't love 378 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,720 Speaker 1: the election results, you know, I was my expectations were 379 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: not high. I think that Virginia's a blue state. I 380 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: think Glenn Younkin was the outlier. I think wins Series 381 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: did not run the best campaign. To be very frank, 382 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: Jack Chidarelli had the problem. In the last three years, 383 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: they lost, you know, a quarter of a million people 384 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: in New Jersey. He got one hundred and fifty thousand 385 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: more votes and they got the last time and still lost. 386 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: And you know, this migration is impacting a lot of 387 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: states like New York, New Jersey and California and Illinois. 388 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: So there's a lot going on here and the country 389 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: is divided, and he's just not going to be part 390 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: of that cancer. And I applaud him for I'm not 391 00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: going crazy, you know, streaming nazi, fascist, racist because you know, 392 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 1: because the worst I affectionately called zoron, you know, you 393 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: know Marxistkami Mamnani, but you know he is a comedy. 394 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: I mean he is, that's his positions. 395 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 8: Do you think Setterment's really making a difference with his colleagues? 396 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 8: Are there more like him that are just afraid to 397 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 8: speak up? Do you think that there'll be a turn 398 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 8: from some others to join him in his perspective? 399 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: If I'm right in my prediction that Donald Trump has 400 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 1: laid the foundation for economic success that will be historic. 401 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: And Reagan needed over a year for his his tax 402 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: plan to take effect and before we really felt the 403 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 1: impact of it beginning to really penetrate the economy and 404 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: dropping the top marginal rates from seventy to twenty eight 405 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: percent over the rest of his presidency that would be 406 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 1: the last six years of his presidency. They created twenty 407 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 1: one million new jobs and the longest period of peacetime 408 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: economic growth. Couple that with energy dominance, and couple that 409 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: with trillions and committed investments in our economy that President 410 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: Trump has been able to accrue that no other president has. 411 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: You know it just you don't snap your finger and 412 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: just move the Titanic. It doesn't work that way. But 413 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: we're moving in all the indicators are we're moving in 414 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,880 Speaker 1: the right direction, and it just there's a lag time 415 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 1: before we start feeling it the way I think we will. 416 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,440 Speaker 1: I've been a believer in this in supply side economics 417 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: my whole life, and it's never let me down so far. 418 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: By the way, John Kennedy believed in it, right. 419 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 8: Great, Well, I appreciate your insight.

Now you're never going 434 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 1: to have in a state tax You're never going to 435 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: have corporate taxes. A brilliant move that will attract so 436 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: many businesses to Texas. Texas is going to thrive even more. 437 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 9: Isn't that wonderful? And you know what I worry about 438 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,120 Speaker 9: the kids. Nobody does research. It's like, what's going on 439 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 9: up there in New York. I hope someone's paying attention 440 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 9: and they start passing this on to the children. That 441 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 9: it's like, what's happening right now? I mean, President Trump's 442 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 9: giving us an example of what a president should be 443 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 9: and what he should do, and the transparency and just 444 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 9: everything he does and how hard he works. You know, 445 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 9: I came from nothing and I was able to work 446 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 9: eighteen hour days, kind of like what you've said about 447 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 9: your life. He took whatever job you could get and 448 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 9: become successful with my wife's help. And I just think 449 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,320 Speaker 9: the kids don't do any research. Everything's at their fingertips, 450 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 9: and that's a big problem of communism, Mom Donnie in 451 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 9: New York. Maybe this is exactly what New York needs. 452 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 9: Maybe this is what the United States needs to see 453 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 9: to see how this works out, because of course it's 454 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 9: going to fail. And you know, I just wish more 455 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 9: people would pay attention. But I've always people are so 456 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 9: busy working and trying to pay the rent and the 457 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 9: bills that sometimes they just don't pay enough attention. You know. 458 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 9: I'm sixty eight years old and the world's really changed 459 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 9: a lot since the John F. Kennedy days when I 460 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 9: was a kid in school and the Democratic Party shame shame, 461 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 9: shame on them, And I don't know, I just really 462 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 9: think that maybe this is what New York needs. This 463 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 9: is in the United States, to see what's going to happen, 464 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 9: and maybe these children will get interested in doing some research. 465 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 9: And these are the things I worry about at sixty 466 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 9: eight years old, because this country is not the same 467 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 9: that I grew up. 468 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,239 Speaker 1: Well, Richard, you're raising a good point here, you know, 469 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,400 Speaker 1: when everything is offered for free, And this is why 470 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: I wrote a whole chapter and Live Free or Die 471 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: about socialism and its history of failure. Whatever name it's given, 472 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: whatever form or manifestation it takes on, the promises are glorious. 473 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 1: Everything's going to be free. We're going to share the wealth. 474 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 1: You know, we're going to tax the rich. You're going 475 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: to get your fair share. All your fears anxieties, worries 476 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 1: about life and living will be taken away from you. 477 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: And your government is going to you know, cradle to gray, 478 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: womb to tomb, protect you. 479 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 3: You know it sounds appealing. 480 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: Is a part of that, Oh, however, it negates human nature. 481 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 1: It human nature. We are designed to contribute when God 482 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: gave you talent when you were born. You're not designed 483 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 1: to get everything for free. And here's here's the truth. 484 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,959 Speaker 1: It always ends the same way. Unfulfilled promises. You end 485 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: up with more poverty than when you started because they 486 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: can't sustain it. Obamacare being exhibit A, social security Exhibit B, 487 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: bad government schools Exhibit C. You know, defund, dismantle, nobail laws, 488 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: open borders, you know, d, E and F and G, 489 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: and just keep going and government fails, and they fail spectacularly, 490 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 1: and then you calculate, you give of freedom in the 491 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: name of false security. The beauty of capitalism is it 492 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,119 Speaker 1: it is predicated on a belief that you have talent 493 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: and ability. And if you given the freedom to go 494 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: out and take that talent and build goods and services 495 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: that you provide other people and make a profit and 496 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: make a living, it has created the greatest standard of 497 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: wealth in the God and this is what makes America 498 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 1: the greatest country God gave man. It's a little harder 499 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: sell than telling you don't worry, We'll take care of 500 00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 1: everything for you. Now, I think the country is going 501 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: to go through a period where we're going to have 502 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: to educate some young people. And I'm hopeful that you know, 503 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 1: this is why I wish people would would focus less 504 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 1: on intramural stupidity and even in our movement, and focus 505 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: more on, you know, helping people to understand what this 506 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: is all about. But there's a certain appeal to this 507 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: that we better be very wary of. And I think 508 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: that you know, this is a canary in the coal mine. 509 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: Now you see on the other side of it, people 510 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: get it, and they're leaving, and they're leaving in droves, 511 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 1: and they go into your state, my state, Tennessee, and 512 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: the Carolinas. They're getting out in other states around the country. 513 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: Got to run
