WEBVTT - Shutdown Fallout 0:00:00.320 --> 0:00:02.680 Two Sean Hannity Show eight hundred and nine point one. 0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:05.400 Shawn our number if you want to be a part 0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:09.760 of the program, coming to you from the Washington Swamp, 0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:14.440 where we have JD. Vans, the Vice President on Hannity tonight. 0:00:14.520 --> 0:00:18.599 Also Big breaking News with Pam Bondy, the Attorney General, 0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:19.599 and Robert F. 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:20.239 Kennedy Junior. 0:00:20.280 --> 0:00:22.720 We've got a great show tonight, say ADBRT nine Eastern 0:00:22.760 --> 0:00:30.080 Tonight on Fox. The government shutdown is over AOC claiming 0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:34.720 that Trump voters are pulling her aside, saying they want 0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:39.120 to join democratic socialism. I don't believe this, and then 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.839 dodge the question if Schumer should be replaced not exactly 0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:43.879 a vote of confidence. 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:47.720 Listen conversation you mention Mr Stay as minority leader. 0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:51.880 I think what is so important for folks to understand 0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:56.560 is that this problem is bigger than one person, and 0:00:56.600 --> 0:00:58.920 it actually is bigger than than the minority leader. 0:00:59.160 --> 0:01:00.760 And I think what's important is. 0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:02.720 That we understand that this is actually this is not 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:07.120 just a leader is reflected as a reflection of the party, 0:01:07.760 --> 0:01:13.520 and Senate Democrats have selected their leadership to represent them, and. 0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:17.000 So the question needs to be bigger than just one person. 0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:18.080 And joining us. 0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:22.039 Now, Ohio Congressman Jim Jordan is with us. All right, 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:26.000 the long national nightmare is over. But you know, but 0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:30.560 for eight Senate Democrats, and but for six Democrats in 0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:33.759 the House, they were all voting to keep this chaos going. 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:35.880 Yeah, And I don't know if I buy all that 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:39.040 what we heard from my colleague there, Miss Ocasi Cortez, 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:41.160 because when I talked to voters in our district, they 0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.399 actually said just the opposite that they said, don't get 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:46.080 into these demands of the Democrats, this idea that you 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.320 got to deal with something that's not that doesn't actually 0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:51.680 come due until next year. Don't hold firm on your position, 0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.400 which is exactly what we did. And of course they 0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:56.840 decided to open the government. And as you said, by 0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:00.080 signing your showsham, which you said, what was it all for? 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.200 What they do it for? I mean, because they got nothing. 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:06.040 They didn't change anything in the big beautiful bill. They 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:09.560 didn't change anything on this subsidizing of this Obamacare that 0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:11.239 was supposed to be the end all be all, saved 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:14.760 everything in healthcare. So what was it all for? To 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:18.760 put military families, people who depend on the air traffic 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.799 controllers put them in jeopardy. I heard the economy, heard 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:25.000 American families. What was it all for? It was simply 0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:28.280 to go after President Trump. And that's the only unifying 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.079 thing the other party has. That's the one constant over 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.720 the last decade that the Democrats have to go after 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:35.560 Trump and do whatever it takes, even if I mean 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:37.600 shutting on the government for forty two days. 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:39.639 Well, they didn't get anything out of it, and I 0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:41.280 don't think they're going to get anything out. 0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:42.080 Of it moving forward. 0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:45.919 I mean, and we potentially looking in January thirtieth, round 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:47.840 two of these shutdowns. 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.200 You know, we talked about this last I don't know, 0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:54.840 I mean this with this crowd and you know, humor 0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:56.919 taking so much heat like he did six months ago, 0:02:58.400 --> 0:03:00.560 Who knows what they'll try and stick that in what 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:02.760 two and a half months? Who knows what they will do. 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:05.519 The Left now unfortunately controls one of the two great 0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:10.919 parties in this country. They have control. They drive the energy, 0:03:10.960 --> 0:03:13.160 they drive it. So we'll see what they do. They 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.359 may intact do that. I hope not, and I hope 0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:17.880 we can pass the bills that are actually control spending 0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:20.560 and allowed the big beautiful bill to really take effect 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:22.880 and make our economy improve even more than it has 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:23.840 under President Trump. 0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:27.959 Well, you know, Americans are suffering, and by the way, 0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.800 the economy overall has taken a one point five trillion 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.200 dollar hit as a result of all this, which might 0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:37.360 slow growth in the short term. I'm pretty optimistic in 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:39.800 the long term for a lot of different reasons that 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:42.800 I've gone over in great specificity in detail earlier in 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.920 the program, and I talk about often, and that includes 0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:51.680 you know, literally, you know, trillions of dollars in manufacturing 0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:55.960 investment moneys committed that you know are going to be 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.680 expedited because of the one big, beautiful bill and something 0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:04.600 one hundred percent depreciation in a single year, which is 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:09.640 like putting high octane into the economy because that incentivizes 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:12.280 companies to build out what they're going to build sooner 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:16.120 rather than later. And that means in pharmaceuticals and semiconductor 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:18.640 chips and automobiles, et cetera, et cetera. 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:19.560 So I love all of that. 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.760 And you know, there's a couple of things though, that 0:04:24.160 --> 0:04:28.080 I would like to see before we get to the 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:32.400 midterms in a year. And you know, the government shutdown 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:36.800 is one thing, but there's been under Joe Biden, there 0:04:36.880 --> 0:04:42.239 was a decline of affordability of twenty six percent. Since 0:04:42.279 --> 0:04:47.440 Donald Trump has become the president, it's a ten percent improvement, 0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:52.320 But for average Americans there's still sixteen percent down. And 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:54.240 a lot of people are saying, oh, okay, Well, the 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:56.640 price of exit are way down, the price energy is 0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:00.240 way down, the price of gasolines down. And you know, 0:05:00.760 --> 0:05:03.800 when that happens, that'll filter into the economy the trillions, 0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:07.120 and it committed investment money and manufacturing money, which is 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.520 going to help states like yours in Ohio a lot 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:14.640 that's important, Energy in the in the pipeline and adopting 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:19.040 energy friendly policies. The President was right last night saying 0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:22.440 that's like getting a tax cut. That that's key, that's critical, 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:26.560 that's crucial. And then of course when Reagan cut taxes, 0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.599 you know, ended up creating twenty one million new jobs, 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:32.640 double revenues to the government, and was the longest period 0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:37.440 of peacetime economic growth. But that all takes time. How 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:39.560 long do you think this is going to take? And 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.240 in the meantime, what are the people in Ohio are 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:44.640 what are they saying to you about their thoughts on 0:05:44.680 --> 0:05:45.359 the economy. 0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:48.680 Well, no, they trust what the president's doing it on affront, 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:50.400 so what he's on the boarder, what he's done with taxes, 0:05:50.440 --> 0:05:52.599 what he's done with tariff. They trust the objectives and 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:53.760 the goals that he wants to get to. And I 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:56.640 think most most Americans realize that this does take a 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.920 little time, as you pointed out, But you're right, inflation 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:03.360 prices have come down, but inflation was so done why 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.760 under Joe Biden. Even with how President Trump's economy has 0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:09.560 come down and improved, it's still way too much for 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.239 families to pay. So I think once this Therapi issue 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:13.680 gets settled out, which I think it will in the 0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.039 next couple of months, and the Big Beautiful Bill really 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:17.800 gets to kick in those tax cuts. You know. I 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.040 always say to Sean that the left hates the Big 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:26.280 Beautiful Bill because it empowers families. It lets them keep 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:27.920 more of their money, which is good for them, their kids, 0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:30.840 their family, their goals, they're objectives. It empowers families to 0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.799 school choice, we put that in the task. It empowers 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.240 individuals who are in our welfare system who never had 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:39.559 to work this work requirement. It empowers families, it doesn't 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.440 empower government. And once that thing really gets to kick in. 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:44.880 I think it will really help our economy and bring 0:06:44.920 --> 0:06:47.000 these prices down even more. And then you add to 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:49.960 it where you describe the regulatory relief that's coming, the 0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.400 pro energy policy that we have that's good for you know, 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.599 President always talks about drill, baby, drill. All those things 0:06:56.640 --> 0:06:59.280 come together, but it takes a little time. And that's 0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:01.680 why the Democrats, I think part of the reason they 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:03.800 want to sit down the government so we can't keep 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:05.800 doing some of these good things that will help the 0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.000 economy because it hurts them politically. 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:10.440 All right, let me move on to a topic near 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:12.520 and dear to your heart. I have in front of 0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:17.720 me a letter that you sent to the Acting Inspector General. 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:22.760 And in this letter and I think this is extraordinarily important. 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:26.119 I think people need to understand weaponization was more deep, 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:30.720 more profound, more scary than ever before. Let me first 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.360 start by saying, you know, Jack Smith, what we learned. 0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:37.600 It targeted then House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and his private 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:42.320 phone records in a probe. Also sought the personal phone 0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:47.240 records of now former Representative Louis Gomert. And I'm not 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:51.000 sure if you know this yet. Congressman Jordan a little 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:53.840 Birdie told me your name's on that list too, Are 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:54.440 you aware of that? 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:57.840 I'm not. And we're going through documents. We're going through 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:01.840 the document that has our friend, our friends, Speaker McCarthy 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.720 and conress Man Gohmert. We're going through all those documents. 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:08.040 There's other people that we know, good great Americans who 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:10.200 are on there. I talked to someone them yesterday as 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.840 we were working through these documents. We continue to get 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:15.720 from the Justice Department. But yeah, this was serious. And 0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.280 then as you point out, we've actually we're going to 0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:22.400 contact everyone everyone who was involved. Jacksmith was working with 0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.520 the United States Postal Inspection Service, he was working with 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.920 the Inspector General, he was working with the National Archives 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:30.920 and Records Administration, and of course he was working with 0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:33.400 the FBI and the BOJ They're all working together. So 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:35.960 we're going to go to every one of those entities 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:39.000 and get any information they have related to this subject matter. 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:41.840 And we want all that information. And then, as you know, 0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:43.800 we're in the process of bringing Jacksmith in, but we 0:08:43.800 --> 0:08:45.840 want that information before we bring him in. We've already 0:08:45.880 --> 0:08:49.120 deposed his deputies. They took the fifth multiple multiple dozens 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.439 and dozens of seventy one and seventy three times, respectively, 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:53.480 two of his top deputies. So we want all that 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:56.679 information before we bring him in. And one the letter 0:08:56.760 --> 0:08:59.640 was stout today to the Inspector General. Remember the Inspector 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:04.640 General was involved in imaging Congressman Scott Perry's phone. The 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:08.040 Spectry channalists to provide oversight of the Justice Department from within, 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.680 not help the Justice Department engaging this weaponization of the government. 0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:14.040 So that's why we sent them the letter, and we'll 0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:15.120 get all the information, but. 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:18.400 Explain the importance of this because these reports, and you 0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:23.560 put this in your letter, the Justice Department, you use 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.880 the laboratory in Northern Virginia to assist the FBI in 0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:31.600 conducting a forensic review in this case of Representative Perry's 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:35.120 cell phone, and reports indicate that the phone was also 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:39.440 imaged after the search. In other words, they copied everything 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:42.560 that was on that phone a forensic copy. By the way, 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:45.319 are you allowed to have a private text with your 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:49.880 wife or your children, or your mother or your father? 0:09:50.240 --> 0:09:53.440 And they just they don't care about anybody's privacy. Did 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:57.720 they get the necessary search warrants? I do believe I 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:02.640 read somewhere learned something in school about unreasonable search and seizure. 0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:04.920 It seems like we might have crossed the line here, 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:10.760 and you are requesting that they provide all documents communications 0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:16.400 between or among employees at the OIG, DOJ FBI referring 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:18.880 or relating to the seizure of cell phones from any 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:19.800 member of Congress. 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:21.760 By the way, you will be on the list. 0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:27.000 That's my prediction, all documents communications between or among employees 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:30.360 of the OIG, DJ and FBI. And by the way, 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:32.800 I'm glad I can return this favor. And this is 0:10:32.800 --> 0:10:36.560 an inside joke only Jim Jordan will understand, considering Jim 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:40.320 Jordan had to inform me once about well, let's just say, 0:10:40.400 --> 0:10:43.240 a little activity going on against your favorite talk show host, 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.959 and you even said it on live TV ones that 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.120 you know they suppressed my social media, but it was 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:54.120 worse than that. So when you get these documents, what 0:10:54.200 --> 0:10:56.720 are you looking for and what laws might have been 0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:57.360 broken here? 0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:00.440 Well, again, we don't know that we want all this 0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.480 information because you know, for example, one of the questions 0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:06.719 we asked one of Jack's deputies was how many other 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:09.280 members of the United States Congress, Did you surveill, did 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:11.600 you get phone logs of and everything else? They took 0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:13.360 the fifth of that question because this we deposed this 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.800 gentleman after we had learned about the initial what happened 0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:19.240 with the United States senators. So we want to get 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:22.280 all the information and then walk through it with with 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:25.560 mister Smith. But the information we get will determine exactly 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.040 the type of questions we need to ask them what 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:29.240 we need to get. But when you referenced yourself, seante 0:11:29.280 --> 0:11:32.080 to think about this, that's how widespread this net was. 0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.160 When Senator Grassley said this was a giant fishing expedition 0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:38.559 against the Republican Party, against conservatives, against people who happened 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.840 to be supporters of President Trump, that's truly what it was. 0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:44.120 You look at this, this ten page document we got 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:47.960 yesterday which Speaker McCarthy's name of the Louie Gomer's name, rarown, 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:52.080 the people they were going after. It's unbelievable what they did. 0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:54.839 So that's we just want to keep getting this in 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.000 and then bring in mister Smith for his deposition. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:01.600 I quick break right back more with Jim Jordan, Ohio, Congressman, 0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:05.640 Chair of the Powerful House Judiciary Committee just referred John 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:09.640 Brennan for criminal investigation to the DOJ. More on the 0:12:09.640 --> 0:12:12.679 other side, as we continue from the DC swamp straight ahead, 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:18.000 we continue now with Ohio Congressman. He's the chair of 0:12:18.240 --> 0:12:22.920 the all important House Judiciary Committee. Jim Jordan is with us, honestly, 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:27.559 all the work that we did, beginning with the Russia hoax, 0:12:27.840 --> 0:12:32.080 all the way through all the investigations into and the 0:12:32.120 --> 0:12:35.600 witch hunts against Donald Trump, all the impeachments. You know, 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:39.400 you've been one steady, strong, consistent voice to seek out 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:42.360 truth and facts. You know, when you really think about it. 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:46.000 One time we had a discussion and we started making 0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:50.120 a list and writing it down. You know, our ensemble cast, 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:53.600 you know John Solomon and named Greg Jarrett, and Sarah 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:57.920 Carter and Catherine Herridge, and there were others, and if 0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:01.200 I'm not mentioning their names, And then there were maybe 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:04.679 five or six of you in Congress that we could 0:13:04.720 --> 0:13:09.959 rely on that would tell us truth, that would verify reports, 0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:15.560 public knowledge, nothing untoward, and that allowed us and gave 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:20.040 us the confidence to report things to America that nobody 0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:21.760 else in the media. 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:23.720 Went along with like that. They went along. 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:27.480 With the idea that Donald Trump was in a riz 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:31.800 carton in Moscow, you know, with hookers urinating on him. 0:13:32.040 --> 0:13:36.560 Yes, and Sean. They made fun of us. And it 0:13:36.640 --> 0:13:39.760 turns out the only thing we had wrong, The only 0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.600 thing we got wrong is that it was worse than 0:13:42.600 --> 0:13:44.760 we thought. That is the only thing we got wrong. 0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:46.640 It was much worse than we thought, because we now 0:13:46.679 --> 0:13:50.120 know from what Tulsey released this summer that John Brennan 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:54.920 changed the intelligence community assessment and when he came to Congress, 0:13:55.120 --> 0:13:56.960 she told us that he wasn't involved with the duncia, 0:13:57.240 --> 0:13:59.920 when in fact he was, and he put it he was. 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:02.400 He's got pushing it to have it in the intelligence 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.320 screen the assessment to create the credit for the Moller 0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:08.880 investigation to go after President Trump. I means, that's how 0:14:09.000 --> 0:14:11.839 ridiculous this all was. And when you were talking about it, 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.480 they were common after you, they were common after us, 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:16.640 And the only thing we had wrong is it was 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:18.680 much worse than we ever said at the beginning. 0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:22.240 One day, I'm going to bring us all together and 0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:25.400 maybe we'll do like a three hour show and we'll 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.240 just tell the behind the scenes. 0:14:28.040 --> 0:14:31.080 Jim Jordan, Ohio. We appreciate you, sir, Thank you, thank you. 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:32.640 John take care all right. 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:34.880 Eight hundred nine four one seawn our number. You want 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:36.200 to be a part of the program, We'll get to 0:14:36.200 --> 0:14:39.320 your calls when we come back. Also, we're going to 0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:41.680 check in with the Great, the One, the Only. Matt 0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:45.320 Towery is going to join us. He is in studio. 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:48.560 We're in the Washington Swamp today. VP Vance on tonight, 0:14:48.600 --> 0:14:54.440 Pam Bondy on tonight, and RFK Junior on tonight. You know, 0:14:55.880 --> 0:14:59.640 if there was ever a Republican Nancy Pelosi now is 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:03.440 announce that she's not. I know, this is heartbreaking. Linda's 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:09.800 heartbroken running for reelection now. I think she's about as 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:12.680 cognitively aware at this point in her life as Joe 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:16.640 Biden was, let's say, in year two of his presidency 0:15:16.800 --> 0:15:19.760 not very good, and it got worse from there. And 0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:23.720 she's out there now moralizing. Now, could you imagine if 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.400 you go into Congress and you have a net worth 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.800 of three million dollars and then you leave. Now she's claiming, 0:15:30.880 --> 0:15:33.680 this is my husband's investments, et cetera, et cetera. Okay, 0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:39.680 I'm a big believer in capitalism, and a seventeen thousand 0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:45.640 percent return on your investment and three million grows to 0:15:45.720 --> 0:15:48.000 two hundred and eighty million dollars. 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:49.480 That was in the New York Post the other day. 0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:52.920 Again she said, I don't do the investing, and no, 0:15:53.000 --> 0:15:57.240 I would never use inside information. It's so good the 0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:01.000 results that there are people that when she puts out 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:04.840 a public financial disclosure reports, they look at what she's 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:08.600 investing in and they follow whatever Nancy's doing, and they 0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:11.200 have been making money. They're a little later than Nancy, 0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:16.120 so not quite seventeen thousand percent increase anyway, So here's 0:16:16.160 --> 0:16:18.960 her moralizing on the issue of climate change as a 0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:20.960 moral and affordability issue. 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:23.840 Some of us on the immigration issue had traveled to 0:16:23.880 --> 0:16:27.320 the Northern Triangle a few years ago, and what we 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.359 found there is one of the reasons people were migrating 0:16:30.400 --> 0:16:33.200 to the United States is what has been mentioned, and 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:36.520 that is they had a drought that people couldn't farm, 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:38.480 so they didn't have a job and they didn't have 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:41.680 the food that farming would produce. Hence they were coming 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:44.480 to the United States. So this is again as Ares 0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:49.160 the congresswoman mentioned, a migration issue, which is an economic show. 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:56.120 So this is again economic, as congresswan Caster said, it 0:16:56.200 --> 0:17:00.880 is not only a moral issue, but it is affordability 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:01.800 issue as well. 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:06.440 Ah okay, all right, let's get to our busy phones 0:17:07.119 --> 0:17:12.000 as we say hi to Sarah. She's in Colorado. Sarah, Hi, 0:17:12.119 --> 0:17:14.119 how are you glad you called? Thanks for checking in. 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:14.800 Hi. 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:17.680 Doing all right? Very busy today. Life is always busy. 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:18.680 As a single mom. 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.879 Oh well, being a single mom is hard. Being a 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:26.280 mom period is hard. Being a parent is hard. Yeah, 0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:28.760 you know what, Can I just tell you how stupid 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:29.919 I've been in my life? 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:31.359 I want to tell you how dumb I was. 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:34.240 Once in my life I actually thought if I got 0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:36.440 my kids off to college, I felt, Mike, my job 0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:37.080 was done. 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:38.880 How dumb was I? 0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:41.680 You were unaware? 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:46.920 Unaware I would say, you're being charitable. I would say dumb, naive, 0:17:48.640 --> 0:17:51.359 but in all the best ways. Because you kind of 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:54.040 go through this period where you know they your kids 0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:57.080 love you, your daughter wants to hold your hand, and 0:17:57.119 --> 0:17:58.800 all of a sudden doesn't want to hold your hand 0:17:58.800 --> 0:17:59.840 in public anymore. 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:02.960 You know they're off with their friends. 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:05.040 Then you have to be careful that they're not hanging 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.560 out with the wrong people, doing the wrong things. Then 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:09.600 they go off to college. You totally lose them in 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:12.040 the college years, then they come back, and when they 0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:13.439 finally come back, and then all of. 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:15.880 A sudden, one day you sit down and you're. 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.920 Like, oh, I got a peer, I have an adult 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:23.119 here now. Oh, life feels pretty good. Anyway, what's on 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:23.760 your mind today? 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:27.400 Yes, well, you know, just looking at everything that's been 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:30.520 going on, and I've tried to speak with my teenage 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:34.760 kids about this, but what I'm seeing is a little 0:18:34.800 --> 0:18:38.920 bit of political slight of hands and game playing that's 0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:42.440 been going on at the surface. You know, the Democrats 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:45.280 are saying that the Republicans are responsible for the shutdown 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:50.760 when they actually created an Affordable Care Act and then 0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:55.080 put up these subsidies that were set to sunset now, 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:58.720 and they want to blame that on the Republicans. And 0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:01.840 so there's this slight of hand that's going on where 0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:04.760 you're looking at this. You're noticing this same thing with 0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:07.960 the Epstein files and everything. But in the meantime, what's 0:19:08.080 --> 0:19:13.040 really going on in the background is how AOC has 0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:18.760 been basically shaming Schumer and I think she's wanting his position. 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:23.119 And then we've got Mandami that has now been elected 0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:27.000 mayor in New York, and you know, there's this thing 0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:30.199 going on this undercurrent. That's like pay attention to the 0:19:30.240 --> 0:19:33.359 surface stuff. Everybody never mind what the man behind the 0:19:33.400 --> 0:19:37.879 curtain is doing. And that is slowly the Democrat Party, 0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:42.480 which is now no longer what JFK had run under 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:45.919 it is now actually become the Communist Party. 0:19:46.560 --> 0:19:51.640 I'm just telling you right now that this party is adrift. 0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:58.000 The key for Republicans now is that they really get 0:19:58.040 --> 0:20:03.080 out and do everything humanly possible to make sure that 0:20:03.119 --> 0:20:06.800 we get our economy in the best shape possible. What 0:20:06.920 --> 0:20:09.520 I am most concerned about is there is a lag 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:12.679 time by the time when you cut taxes. There is 0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:17.719 a lag time until the average American begins to feel 0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:22.320 the positive impact in their lives. When you open up 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:26.280 energy production, it doesn't happen because you snap your fingers 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.800 and you opened up you know the Arctic, you know, 0:20:30.359 --> 0:20:35.880 Alaska Arctic refuge, wildlife refuge. It doesn't happen immediately when 0:20:35.880 --> 0:20:39.720 you open up energy dominance policies. When you have trillions 0:20:39.720 --> 0:20:43.840 and trillions in manufacturing you know, destined to get online, 0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:47.840 you don't cut you know, ribbons and start digging dirt 0:20:47.880 --> 0:20:51.080 on day one. It takes planning, and it takes architects 0:20:51.119 --> 0:20:53.399 et cetera. So it's going to be a little bit 0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:56.600 of time. The good news is all of this is 0:20:56.640 --> 0:20:59.560 in the pipeline and I feel very good about it. 0:21:00.200 --> 0:21:03.240 And if Democrats want to shut down the government fighting 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:06.280 for one point five trillion, you know, for hundreds of 0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:09.720 billions of dollars for illegal immigrants, and they want to 0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:13.159 defend the Affordable Care Act Obamacare, which is not affordable, 0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.560 which they wrote the bill to make it temporary anyway, 0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:19.520 just to get us through the pandemic. They want to 0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:22.560 refund MPR and PBS, and that's the hill they want 0:21:22.560 --> 0:21:22.919 to die on. 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:23.639 Let them die. 0:21:23.880 --> 0:21:27.120 And unfortunately, you know, like you said, it does take time. 0:21:27.200 --> 0:21:31.200 It used to be that one a president did something, 0:21:31.440 --> 0:21:34.480 it took a whole entire presidency to then start to 0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:37.880
