Speaker 1: I'm Jason chaf it's feeling it for Sean. Thanks to
Speaker 1: Sean for letting me sit in his seat. Very very
Speaker 1: kind of him to do that. I'm an honored to
Speaker 1: do it. Hey, big rulings in the Supreme Court, we're
Speaker 1: talking guns and immigration. Doesn't get any better than that,
Speaker 1: especially when the justices step up and make such decisive rulings,
Speaker 1: four of them, specifically, two on guns, two in the
Speaker 1: Second Amendment, and two on immigration. So we better spend
Speaker 1: some time deciphering this. And who better than Gene Hamilton.
Speaker 1: He's the President of America first legal very instrumental in
Speaker 1: doing a lot of things like executive orders and whatnot.
Speaker 1: But we're thrilled to have Gene Hamilton to help us
Speaker 1: break all this down. Gene, welcome to the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 2: Jason, thanks for having me on, sir, Hey.
Speaker 1: No, we appreciate it. So I want to kind of
Speaker 1: go down the list and let's just kind of break
Speaker 1: this down. Give us your interpretation and what happened here.
Speaker 1: Let's start with Wolford versus Lopez. This is the Hawaii restriction.
Speaker 1: Explain to us what happened there and why this is
Speaker 1: so important.
Speaker 2: Well, look, it's a great question in the court. I mean,
Speaker 2: really and truly, I think that the listeners at home
Speaker 2: need to think about overwriting theem in all.
Speaker 1: Of these decisions that were issued.
Speaker 2: Today, is you have a Supreme Court that is there
Speaker 2: that is still committed to issuing decisions that uphold Americans
Speaker 2: either their long standing constitutional rights or applying the laws
Speaker 2: as Congress wrote them. In the case of immigration, and
Speaker 2: so this Hawaii case, this Wolford versus Lopez case, the
Speaker 2: Supreme Court rejected the enforcement of a law in Hawaii
Speaker 2: that prohibited caring concealed carry of handa on private property
Speaker 2: that is open to the public without getting the property
Speaker 2: owners express authorization. So this isn't talking about, you know,
Speaker 2: bringing a gun into somebody's house without their authorization. Is
Speaker 2: talking about going into a store and walking into a
Speaker 2: grocery store, or being able to go into another place
Speaker 2: that is generally open to the public. And you know,
Speaker 2: the Court's essential holding here is that Hawaii's law the
Speaker 2: prohibited is from happening, did not comport with the Second Amendment,
Speaker 2: did not comport with historical understanding of the application of
Speaker 2: the Second Moment and the right to bear arms people.
Speaker 2: So it was a tremendous win for.
Speaker 1: The second moment. So the guy, I have a concealed
Speaker 1: carry permit, But I've always felt like, hey, I've got
Speaker 1: a constitutional you know, I got the Second Amendment. Why
Speaker 1: should they even have to have a concealed carry permit?
Speaker 1: But I, you know, I carry. I have lots of guns.
Speaker 1: I have big guns, I have small guns, and it
Speaker 1: is my right. But I also respect personal privacy or
Speaker 1: the personal property rights. But I what I was excited
Speaker 1: I think to see here is that yeah, even though
Speaker 1: it may be owned by a private entity. So and
Speaker 1: tell me if I'm wrong here. If you go into
Speaker 1: a restaurant, if you go into a grocery store, you
Speaker 1: can still conceal carry, unlike what Hawaii is trying to
Speaker 1: do is say nope, can't do that. You can only
Speaker 1: go in certain areas. And so but how does does
Speaker 1: your reading of this gene that this? You know, churches,
Speaker 1: what about churches? Can they still ban or can they
Speaker 1: do they because they may may say visitors welcome, Can
Speaker 1: they carry in churches? Now?
Speaker 2: You know, look, I think that you know there's what
Speaker 2: you're going to have to do is we're gonna have
Speaker 2: to go through each as you know, well, each state
Speaker 2: has you know, fifty different there's fifty different regimes that
Speaker 2: we're going to have to analyze across the country. And
Speaker 2: you're gonna have to look at the different regimes that
Speaker 2: would either permit or prohibit the carrying of a firearm
Speaker 2: into a place like a church, and determine whether or
Speaker 2: not that particular practice comports with the historical practice, comports
Speaker 2: with the with the Supreme Courts very kind of repeatedly
Speaker 2: stated and consistently held a position about the importance of
Speaker 2: the right to bear arms and what it actually means. Obviously,
Speaker 2: we've we've seen some monumental shifts in favor of the
Speaker 2: American people when it comes to this general area, when
Speaker 2: it comes to seconmandment rights, and so you know, look,
Speaker 2: I mean, I guess you will have to look at
Speaker 2: each case as it comes, but I would like to
Speaker 2: think that in many, many of these cases it would
Speaker 2: would apply to churches as well, as long as that's
Speaker 2: generally open to.
Speaker 1: Interesting. Interesting, all right, very quickly, because this is not
Speaker 1: the most thrilling decision ever. I'm not saying I'm against it.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's about pesticides. So let's talk about
Speaker 1: Monsanto versus Durnell. It was a seven to two decision,
Speaker 1: with Kavanaugh writing the majority opinion. Here, federal pesticide law
Speaker 1: preempts state failure to warn lawsuits. I guess that's uh
Speaker 1: the the the attorneys plaintiffs, attorneys for trying to, you know,
Speaker 1: go out and sue everybody. They can't be too happy
Speaker 1: about that. Did I read that right?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, like, generally speaking, obviously this is an issue,
Speaker 2: this is partial case. Isn't obviously that interesting? Factually it's
Speaker 2: the kind of thing that lawyers get paid to be
Speaker 2: lawyers for.
Speaker 1: Hey Gene, Hey Gene, I'm calling an audible here, because well,
Speaker 1: I'm filling in for Sean Andy. We've already spent enough
Speaker 1: time I'm on this seven to two decision. You want
Speaker 1: to learn more about pesticides, you're going to have to
Speaker 1: look that one up. All right, Let's move on to
Speaker 1: the next one. Nothing about you, nothing about me. It's
Speaker 1: just it's a pesticide ruling. So let's go. Let's get
Speaker 1: to the nitty gritty of immigration. Because there were two
Speaker 1: cases here, right, Mullen versus al Otro Latto. I can't
Speaker 1: pronounce these names. Are Mullen versus Doe. Alito writing the
Speaker 1: opinion on both those six y three decisions break this
Speaker 1: down for US because asylum seekers they wanted to have
Speaker 1: some rights, and the justices pretty much said.
Speaker 2: No, Yeah, Look, there's a couple of different cases. And
Speaker 2: both of these are really, really really important cases, not
Speaker 2: only for the propositions that they stand for, but because
Speaker 2: also they are nearly a decade in the making, both
Speaker 2: of them. So All Ultra Lato was a case that
Speaker 2: applied to a practice of the Department of Home in
Speaker 2: Security that was known as metering. And this is fundamentally
Speaker 2: common sense to the American people. So folks at home
Speaker 2: understand that if you're managing the border and someone is
Speaker 2: in Mexico, they have not yet entered into the United States.
Speaker 2: The notion that you can't do anything that you have
Speaker 2: to allow them to come into the United States. You
Speaker 2: have to allow yourself to be overwhelmed with people who
Speaker 2: claim that they have the right to seek asylum, who
Speaker 2: but again, who have not yet entered the United States.
Speaker 2: The Supreme Court has affirmed, based on the way that
Speaker 2: Congress wrote the statute, that in fact, the United States
Speaker 2: government does have the sovereign right, the sovereign right based
Speaker 2: on the statute as well to say no, you don't
Speaker 2: get there. Just because you're an asylum seeker doesn't mean
Speaker 2: that you get to demand entry, doesn't mean that you
Speaker 2: get to demand asylum from Mexico. So it was a
Speaker 2: tremendous vindication of a practice that is common sense. It's
Speaker 2: one of the most common sense things you could ever imagine.
Speaker 2: It's like going to the deli counter at the grocery store.
Speaker 2: You don't get to just walk behind the counter and
Speaker 2: cite your own needs. You got to take a number
Speaker 2: and wait your turn and wait until they serve you.
Speaker 2: And the whole notion that our asylum laws would allow
Speaker 2: for anything else was one that was just wacky. But
Speaker 2: again has taken a decade.
Speaker 1: To be resolved well, and I think that was part
Speaker 1: of the strategy. Look, when I first got elected to
Speaker 1: Congress back in two thousand and eight, so the beginning
Speaker 1: of two thousand and nine, I'm on the Judiciary Committee.
Speaker 1: I'm not an attorney. I know that sounds like I'm bragging,
Speaker 1: but I'm not an attorney. But I was on Judiciary,
Speaker 1: and I was on the Immigration subcommittee, and it was
Speaker 1: very clear even back then that one of Obama's because
Speaker 1: I elected at the same time as Barack Obama, they
Speaker 1: were going to try all kinds of things because they
Speaker 1: knew it would take a long time, years if not decades,
Speaker 1: to sort it out in the courts. And one of
Speaker 1: the things they did is they changed the definition of
Speaker 1: credible fear. And then they started doing everything they could
Speaker 1: to use asylum. And people would show up at the
Speaker 1: border with pre written scripts. They'd pull them out of
Speaker 1: their pockets and then just read it instead of answering
Speaker 1: the questions. And so we could go deep into this.
Speaker 1: But nevertheless, the Ninth Circuit yet again has a decision
Speaker 1: that has been overturned by the Supreme Court in a
Speaker 1: sixty three ruling.
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the next one. Let's go
Speaker 1: to Mullen versus dough. This is about temporary somehow Democrats
Speaker 1: lose the definition of that temporary protected status TPS as
Speaker 1: they call it. Explain what this ruling does.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, look, the takeaway point for the folks at
Speaker 2: home is that when Congress says that something is up
Speaker 2: to the secretary's discretion, the Secretary of Homeland Security, when
Speaker 2: Congress writes that in a statute and says no court
Speaker 2: can review the secretary's discretion. The Supreme Court's decision today
Speaker 2: means that that word that phrase actually means something. So
Speaker 2: let's unpack it a little bit. TPS Temporary Protected status is,
Speaker 2: of course, it is a status that DHS can grant
Speaker 2: to nationals of a particular country who are already in
Speaker 2: the United States in the events that there are some
Speaker 2: kind of emergency, there's some kind of a hurricane, there's
Speaker 2: an earth, there's a war, something that creates it makes
Speaker 2: it renders it unsafe for people to return to the
Speaker 2: country because of those conditions. But some of these designations
Speaker 2: have been made decades ago based on hurricanes that happened
Speaker 2: in like nineteen ninety eight. And so when the Department
Speaker 2: of Homeland Security previously has tried to terminate temporary protected status,
Speaker 2: there have been plaintiffs who have brought lawsuits alleging all
Speaker 2: kinds of things, saying that all this was in the
Speaker 2: right decision. We think that this was motivated by this,
Speaker 2: that or the other. We disagree with the decision, YadA, YadA, YadA,
Speaker 2: and courts have tied up the ability of the administration
Speaker 2: to end these temporary programs when Congress very clearly, very
Speaker 2: clearly in the statute said this is something that is
Speaker 2: left to the Secretary's discretion. And so if the Secretary
Speaker 2: says that we are ending TPS, courts can't interfere, they
Speaker 2: can't get involved. This is a massive win for the
Speaker 2: rule of law and for people who want to do
Speaker 2: the right thing.
Speaker 1: We're talking, of course with Gene Hamilton, the President of
Speaker 1: America first legal and Gene. That brings us to the
Speaker 1: big one, the big kahuna, if you will, the big
Speaker 1: daddy of them all wasn't there today. But the biggest one,
Speaker 1: I believe is birthright citizenship. This is going to be
Speaker 1: a big, big ruling. They haven't released it yet. What's
Speaker 1: your prediction based on these two rulings that we see
Speaker 1: on immigration, Where do you think the Court's going with
Speaker 1: birthright citizenship?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean there's where I wish they would
Speaker 2: go and where they end up. Of course, I am
Speaker 2: very hopeful for the right result, a result that's rooted
Speaker 2: in a proper understanding of the Fourteenth Amendment and the
Speaker 2: clause set off by Commas in subject to the jurisdiction
Speaker 2: thereof and all of the common sense reasons why birthright
Speaker 2: citizenship makes no sense and has no constitutional underpinnings that
Speaker 2: underwrite it. What I you know, I mean, if you're
Speaker 2: going to put a gun to my head and ask
Speaker 2: me to make a prediction today, as hopeful as I
Speaker 2: am for the right decision, my prediction is that the
Speaker 2: Court will find a way to resolve the case that
Speaker 2: doesn't end up with a pure majority, but that ends
Speaker 2: up not upholding the president's executive order in this case
Speaker 2: at leaves for another day the decision on the constitutional
Speaker 2: question as to whether or not there's a right to
Speaker 2: citizenship for folks who were born here to the parents
Speaker 2: who are illegal. Now, I hope that's not the case.
Speaker 2: I honestly hope that is not the case. And you know,
Speaker 2: there's a there's a sliver of hope that I have
Speaker 2: that we are going to get a majority of justices
Speaker 2: who do the right things, who understand the implications, understand
Speaker 2: what the Constitution says, Understand what the drafters of the
Speaker 2: fourteenth Amendment meant, and what they were saying at the
Speaker 2: time of the adoption of the fourteenth Amendment. But you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's one of these things. When you
Speaker 2: get a couple of good wins in the immigration space,
Speaker 2: when it comes to the Supreme Court, that means sometimes
Speaker 2: you're going to get a you're going to get a
Speaker 2: loss kind of down the line.
Speaker 1: So that would be the biggest one. That would be
Speaker 1: the biggest loss of them all. So I know I'm
Speaker 1: with you because I want the result to be what
Speaker 1: you want it to be personally. But we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1: But that is the big ruling. We have no idea
Speaker 1: when it's going to come out. Good happen tomorrow, could happened,
Speaker 1: I don't know when, but soon around the later. Jean Hamilton,
Speaker 1: President of America First Legal, thank you so much for
Speaker 1: joining us. Stay with us. We got Rob Schneider coming up.
Speaker 1: You don't want to miss that. Stay with us.
Speaker 4: He gives you the latest breaking news when he hits
Speaker 4: the air. This is the Sean Hannity Show.
Speaker 1: And of course Jason Chief it's still here filling in
Speaker 1: for Sean. Hoping he's feeling a little bit better. But
Speaker 1: what a better I can't think of a better way
Speaker 1: to put a smile on your face than our next guest,
Speaker 1: Rob Schneider. Rob, thank you so much for making time
Speaker 1: in your busy day and joining us here on Hannity Radio.
Speaker 1: Really do appreciate it.
Speaker 3: It's always a pleasure to talk to you. Jason. How's
Speaker 3: your lovely family doing.
Speaker 1: They're doing great. You know, we had this wonderful lunch.
Speaker 1: You were so kind. We sat and broke bread and
Speaker 1: talked in Arizona. Number that was a while ago now,
Speaker 1: and just it's been a real pleasure to get to
Speaker 1: know you and hear what you're doing. And I've been
Speaker 1: reading your book. It's awesome. I really like you can
Speaker 1: do it. It's really a good book.
Speaker 3: Thank you. Man. I a lot of time on my
Speaker 3: hands to write some things and get some thoughts out.
Speaker 3: It's just, you know, the more that you travel around
Speaker 3: this country, you know, the more you realize it's a
Speaker 3: culture worth saving, and the idea that all cultures are
Speaker 3: equal is an illusion. You know. Here's something you never hear.
Speaker 3: Born again Christian hopped on a train and stabbed seven people.
Speaker 3: Today you don't hear that. You don't hear a Tibetan
Speaker 3: monk hijacked a plane and crash it into a high rise.
Speaker 1: I want to get your kind of hot take on
Speaker 1: some of the topics that are out there. Now we've
Speaker 1: talked about a lot of people saw, well, you really
Speaker 1: stepped up on Major League Baseball. You know this idiocy
Speaker 1: that's out there that just says, hey, it can only
Speaker 1: go one direction, not another, and heaven forbid we you know,
Speaker 1: put a scripture out there. Tell us how did you
Speaker 1: see this, how did it come, how did you become
Speaker 1: aware of it, and why did you do what you did?
Speaker 1: Explain to people what happened there.
Speaker 3: Well, major League Baseball decided to threaten to find three
Speaker 3: San Francisco Giants pitchers who were you know, and by
Speaker 3: the way, for putting a Bible verse on top of
Speaker 3: their hat. You know, while they were also you know,
Speaker 3: not forced to wear a Pride emblem on their hat.
Speaker 3: They actually had the choice. But still, I mean, the
Speaker 3: idea is if you don't wear it, somehow you're a bigot.
Speaker 3: And you know you have these you know, Christians have
Speaker 3: deeply held religious beliefs, and the idea that you can
Speaker 3: just force them into, you know, doing something that is
Speaker 3: against their beliefs is you know that the Major League
Speaker 3: Baseball can make that decision. I'm sorry, there's a higher
Speaker 3: power than the Commissioner of baseball. That's Jesus Christ. And
Speaker 3: so the it angered me. And I also thought, you know,
Speaker 3: I lived to San Francisco. It's expensive in San Francisco,
Speaker 3: and these guys are not like you know, the superstar
Speaker 3: Otani that's making seven hundred million dollars. These guys make
Speaker 3: the league average, which is still good money. It's like
Speaker 3: seven hundred grand, but after taxes and San Francisco and expenses.
Speaker 3: I mean, so I just said, you know what, I'll
Speaker 3: if they do get fined, I will pay their fine.
Speaker 3: And that went viral. And you know, I said, like,
Speaker 3: because I understand how tough it is to live there
Speaker 3: and also to support them. I'm tired of Christianity being
Speaker 3: this dormat religion and has to take a back seat
Speaker 3: to Pride month. I mean, a month seems crazy. I'm
Speaker 3: glad to see that there's finally some pushback against this
Speaker 3: idea of being a month. I mean that the gays
Speaker 3: we want, you know, you can have your freedom and
Speaker 3: we can have you. You know, you definitely shouldn't be
Speaker 3: discriminated on the basis of your sexual orientation, but you
Speaker 3: won that. Why do you have to shove it in
Speaker 3: our face? And and and for these players, I felt
Speaker 3: that it's important for other Christians to step up and
Speaker 3: say you have your rights. And what the Major League
Speaker 3: Baseball did, and thankfully they did back down because of
Speaker 3: the pressure that you know, whether it was celebrities, and
Speaker 3: also Senator Holly Was you know, contacted the Major League
Speaker 3: Baseball and said, hey, this is against their constitutional rights
Speaker 3: of free speech, and you know, and the Major League
Speaker 3: Baseball wants to have it both ways, Like they did
Speaker 3: have players taking knee and nobody got fined for that
Speaker 3: during the national anthem of all things. How disrespectful was that?
Speaker 3: And they and so they also you know, players do
Speaker 3: put things on their uniforms in small numbers, whether it's
Speaker 3: to honor a player who's passed away their number on
Speaker 3: their hats. So the idea that this is unprecedented is untrue.
Speaker 3: And also it's like, hey, you know, it's particularly Christianity
Speaker 3: that's under attack, and we're seeing it worldwide, and you know,
Speaker 3: it's a national pastime and you know, gay pride is
Speaker 3: not a national pastime. Baseball is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I think people go to a ball game,
Speaker 1: they go to the movies, they go to see a
Speaker 1: comedy show. You know, you may laugh or you know,
Speaker 1: get a giggle here and there about some but a
Speaker 1: lot of people just want an escape. And what's also
Speaker 1: interesting to me, Rob is that you get these people who, oh,
Speaker 1: they're so offended by a scripture reference, and first of all,
Speaker 1: they probably don't even know what that scripture says. Maybe
Speaker 1: they would take a moment and go see what it
Speaker 1: says first and see how offensive that might be. But
Speaker 1: the other part of it is these people who preach
Speaker 1: this tolerance, they're like the least tolerant among us, but
Speaker 1: that their whole matra is We're going to be tolerant
Speaker 1: of everybody. But heaven forbid this happened.
Speaker 3: We have diversity, We want diversity and inclusion. Uh unless
Speaker 3: unless your ideas are uh are more diverse and actually
Speaker 3: differ than ours, then we don't want you. We don't
Speaker 3: want your opinion including so yeah, you do have that,
Speaker 3: I mean, and it's getting too ridiculous. Where you see,
Speaker 3: like you know, Jamie from gays, you know, gays against groomors.
Speaker 3: You see people that snuck inside, you know, under the
Speaker 3: pride flag to a you know, that are abusive and
Speaker 3: and truthfully anti gay is what this is. I realized
Speaker 3: something was happening a few years back. You know, when
Speaker 3: I saw it the you know, the publicized gay parade
Speaker 3: in New York City, there was no there was no
Speaker 3: gay men there. It was just there was literally all
Speaker 3: trans people. And you know, there's there really is a
Speaker 3: push for this, and it's it's an attack, and it's
Speaker 3: a it's this woke attack on our on Western civilization
Speaker 3: and American values. I mean, if we wouldn't have pushed
Speaker 3: back on this Christianity, attack on Christianity and baseball, I
Speaker 3: think instead of the seventh inning stretch, who would have
Speaker 3: had the seventh inning drag queens show?
Speaker 1: So well, that has happened, I mean to think that
Speaker 1: that hasn't already happened. Look, hey, you want to lead
Speaker 1: your life as an adult certain way. Hey, you know
Speaker 1: that that's you're right, But you don't need to shove
Speaker 1: it in our face and and make everybody have to,
Speaker 1: you know, salute to you the way you want them
Speaker 1: to salute. And let's move on, Rob, Let's talk about
Speaker 1: America two fifty because you know, reading your book and
Speaker 1: just talking to you, are a patriot. You love this country.
Speaker 1: What is what is America two fifty in our celebration.
Speaker 1: What does that mean to you in your heart?
Speaker 3: Well, if you really think about the history of humanity
Speaker 3: and all of the life that human beings have led
Speaker 3: up till now, and it's it's you know, I guess
Speaker 3: they the number that they put us about one hundred
Speaker 3: and seventy billion human beings since the you know, since
Speaker 3: since Adam and Eve, if you want to go now, well,
Speaker 3: in that time, the very few people have had the
Speaker 3: incredible gift of living in a country that was based
Speaker 3: on the foundation that your rights are not given to
Speaker 3: you by some ruler or given to you by the state,
Speaker 3: but they are they are endowed by our creator. So
Speaker 3: these are natural laws, and these are laws, and that's
Speaker 3: why it's not a And this system is based on opportunity,
Speaker 3: and it's based on freedom of the individual and capitalism,
Speaker 3: which is you know, there are no perfect systems, but
Speaker 3: show me one that has allowed people to benefit greatly.
Speaker 3: And for all the democrats socialists who say, who are
Speaker 3: mad about Elon Musk becoming a trillionaire, look at all
Speaker 3: the jobs and all the incredible things that he has created,
Speaker 3: and all the wealth that has been created and spread
Speaker 3: out from that. There has been no greater system ever devised,
Speaker 3: and no political systems ever to in this incredible constitutional
Speaker 3: republic what we have and you can just look at
Speaker 3: the fruits of the benefits of it. It is, it
Speaker 3: is and has become. And if we continue to live
Speaker 3: under these natural laws and live a nation under God
Speaker 3: for our individual and we will continue to have the
Speaker 3: greatest nation, most powerful nation in the history of the world.
Speaker 3: And that is that is no accident, and that it's
Speaker 3: something that we need to really maintain and fight for
Speaker 3: because truthfully, this nation is under attack, and it's under
Speaker 3: attack from communists China. They have a seventy five point
Speaker 3: plan to take down America, to take down freedom, because
Speaker 3: they do not want their people to have a system
Speaker 3: that they could see that allows them to really benefit
Speaker 3: from their fruits of their labor, and that actually allows
Speaker 3: them to express themselves and express grievances against what they
Speaker 3: consider to be egregious forms of things that the government
Speaker 3: is doing against them. And so the United States has
Speaker 3: it it basically the test is this, as long as
Speaker 3: you can stand on the street corner and say things
Speaker 3: about the government that you don't like and nobody arrests you,
Speaker 3: you live in a free place, and if you can't
Speaker 3: do that in China. So and that's why the United
Speaker 3: States has this incredible thing. And people say, well, what
Speaker 3: is it that makes us free or what is what
Speaker 3: is it about the system, And it's simply it isn't
Speaker 3: that we have a constitution and a Bill of rights.
Speaker 3: It really I mean even though those are those are
Speaker 3: you know, incredible pieces of paper, what we really have
Speaker 3: is the divide between powers so that we can't get
Speaker 3: one group or one political party that can just usurp powers. Now,
Speaker 3: for all those people who say no kings, no kings,
Speaker 3: I will tell you can. For people who can say
Speaker 3: whatever they want about Donald Trump, President Trump and his
Speaker 3: administration any corrupt you know, democratic leaning liberal judge puts
Speaker 3: an injunction against Trump's usually immigration policies, which were wide
Speaker 3: open under Biden. What does Trump do? He abides by
Speaker 3: that law, and then what does he do He has
Speaker 3: his Justice Department, they will take it to the next level.
Speaker 3: So you really do have these checks and balances here.
Speaker 3: We have the legislative, we have the judicial, and we
Speaker 3: have our executive. And unfortunately, you know right now we
Speaker 3: have a problem with the legislative. Is not is no
Speaker 3: longer making laws, and so you just you know, it
Speaker 3: was never meant to be this politicized voting block, and
Speaker 3: that's what we're seeing now. And so I think it
Speaker 3: is a problem, but I think it's something that we
Speaker 3: can know it still is workable within the United States.
Speaker 3: This framework and this freedom that we have for the individual,
Speaker 3: there's nothing like it. And so for people come and
Speaker 3: from a totalitarian country you come from, if you come
Speaker 3: from the former Soviet Union, if you come from North Korea,
Speaker 3: you will there is there's no doubt which system will
Speaker 3: work for you.
Speaker 1: Well, look, the United States of America, no doubt, is
Speaker 1: the greatest country there has ever been. It's the greatest
Speaker 1: nation on the face of the planet. And we're talking
Speaker 1: with Rob Schneider here. One of the things that as
Speaker 1: you were talking about this separation of powers. That's what
Speaker 1: Justice Alito talked a lot about. And it's really inspiring
Speaker 1: that he Justice Scalia should say. I'm sure Alito would
Speaker 1: concur but Justice Scalia talked about this and how brilliant
Speaker 1: that that form of government and what makes us so
Speaker 1: unique and our constitution truly work.
Speaker 3: Right. Scalia went into detail about that because Kell talked
Speaker 3: about the separation of powers. He also talked about the
Speaker 3: document of the Constitution itself, which is what the that's
Speaker 3: the facto answer that people ask, but what what makes
Speaker 3: America free? And he goes, well, it's a constitution bill rights.
Speaker 3: He actually will tell you. You know, Scillia said that
Speaker 3: the Soviet Constitution is actually in some ways even surpasses
Speaker 3: the United States Constitution. And however it doesn't have the
Speaker 3: protection of the separation of powers. And so that's really
Speaker 3: what does it. And so while we may him in
Speaker 3: haw and what it does, it slows down the process
Speaker 3: of something from turning into tyranny. And James Madison gave
Speaker 3: the greatest gift and that was the difference in Jefferson Madison.
Speaker 3: Jefferson thought that man would always strive for for you know,
Speaker 3: for justice and in search of this higher truth. And
Speaker 3: Madison said, yes, maybe, but just in case they don't,
Speaker 3: let us have some protection.
Speaker 1: Just in case, just in case. Hey, Rob, as we
Speaker 1: wrap up here, people want to see you. You've got
Speaker 1: a great Instagram, you got great clips there. How do
Speaker 1: they find out more about where you're going, what you're doing,

Speaker 3: professor of music and the pianist and he's playing his
Speaker 3: trio's opening for me tomorrow at the Schubert Theater in Boston.
