Speaker 1: of Our Lord, twenty twenty five. Let's get to the

17
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: day's top story. As always, thank you for being here

00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: for you. We appreciate you being here and spending time.

20
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: The United States Marine Corps is gearing up for its

21
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty years of libration of that military branch.

22
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: The celebration will include military weapons demonstration as well as

23
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: a keynote address from former Marine and current Vice President JD.

24
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: Vans. You can catch it all right here in Real

25
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 2: America's Voice.

26
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: I'll bring on Amanda headgivers live updates from the ground.

27
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: Also Moms for Liberty.

28
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: Holding their twenty twenty five Joyful Warriors National Summit today

29
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,600
Speaker 1: and tomorrow. You can catch live coverage here on re

30
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: as well leading up to the Marine two fifty celebration.

31
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: It's a big couple of days here on the network,

32
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: and I'll bring on some experts and correspondence from.

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 2: The ground for their live perspectives. You don't want to

34
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: miss that.

35
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: And then later I'll discuss the lack of new housing

36
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 1: construction and how slow approval processes actively halt new projects

37
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: from ever being built. The slowdown and approval could be

38
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: the cause of not having enough homes, invoking one to

39
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: think about how American legislators can hasten approval and ramp

40
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: up production while making sure things are up to code.

41
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: All that coming your way, But first I want to

42
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: start with John Bolton. John Bolton, the former National Security advisor,

43
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: indicted Thursday eighteen counts under the Espionage Act after he

44
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: was accused of sending classified information to his wife and daughter,

45
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: and keeping more than a thousand pages of classified information

46
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: and documents that he was not entitled to he had

47
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: in his possession.

48
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: He apparently wanted to use.

49
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: Those documents for his own personal ambitions and well maybe more.

50
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: We're not sure.

51
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: This is very serious and those on the left can

52
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: scream all they want, but my bet is clear. John

53
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: Bolton's going to prison for breaking the law that protects

54
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: our nation's national security. Here's what was said, by the

55
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: way in the Oval Office when Donald Trump heard the.

56
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 5: News it was just indicted by a Branduria Maryland GiB

57
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 5: A reaction.

58
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: To that, I didn't know that.

59
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 6: You told me for the first time. But I think he's,

60
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 6: you know, a bad person. I think he's.

61
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: A bad guy. Yeah, he's a bad guy, too bad.

62
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: But it's the way it goes.

63
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: Well, that's the way it goes. John Bolton pleaded not

64
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: guilty earlier today. But we will see what the evidence

65
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 1: says and what the courts decide.

66
00:02:58,160 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 2: Big trial ahead.

67
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: Joining me now to discuss a senior legal fellow at

68
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: the Heritage Foundation, Zach Smith.

69
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 2: Zach, thank you for being here today.

70
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 1: As we discussed just before the program, this is serious.

71
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: They can claim that he was targeted, they can claim

72
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: that it's a weaponized DOJ, they can claim whatever they want,

73
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: But eighteen counts in the twenty six page indictment.

74
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: What it is for sure? It's serious, isn't it.

75
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, it absolutely is serious, not only for John Bolton,

76
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 4: but also for our national security as well. Keep in mind,

77
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 4: some of the allegations in the indictment alleged that John

78
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 4: Bolton's personal email accounts that he used to transmit this

79
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 4: classified information were actually hacked, potentially by the Iranian government

80
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 4: who then tried to blackmail John Bolton as a result

81
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 4: of that hack. So this has very serious implications. These

82
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: are very sensitive documents that John Bolton had access to

83
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 4: because of his role as the National Security Advisor, and

84
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,119
Speaker 4: so to see him retaining a lot of that information

85
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 4: at his home, to see him sending that information across

86
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 4: the Internet using uns cured, unclassified email systems like a

87
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 4: Well and Google, as the indictment alleges, these are very

88
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 4: serious allegations. Now, John Bolton, like any other criminal defendant,

89
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 4: is innocent until are unless proven guilty. But these are

90
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 4: very serious allegations, and I suspect John Bolton is going

91
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: to have a very difficult time explaining his conduct if

92
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 4: he chooses to take the stay in.

93
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Zach, here's the thing that I think struck me

94
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: and a lot of other Americans watching John Bolton ever

95
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: since he left the White House after he was dismissed

96
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 1: by the President, his arrogance, his sheer hubris of well

97
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: he knew better, and Donald Trump was this, and Donald

98
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: Trump was that. Well, Donald Trump wasn't emailing classified information

99
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:47,600
Speaker 1: to his daughter.

100
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 2: Or to his wife or others. We know that.

101
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: And the raid on mari A Lago proved to be

102
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: a whole lot of hubbub about not much at all,

103
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: I mean, rating Milania's underwear, or I don't think proved

104
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: much about national security. And the difference between Donald Trump

105
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 1: and John Bolton. As don Trump actually had the right

106
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 1: to have the documents he had in his possession, and

107
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: he had the right to declassify the documents he had

108
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: in his possession, John Bolton can claim none of that.

109
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly right. Donald Trump, as president had the

110
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 4: authority to declassify documents. It was up to his discretion.

111
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 4: John Bolton was not the president, and so he did

112
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 4: not have that same authority and in fact, the indictment

113
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 4: lays out in some link when John Bolton's right to

114
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 4: access that information expired when he lost the legal ability

115
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 4: to have that information at his home. But it certainly

116
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 4: is clear that John Bolton had a lot of that

117
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 4: information still in his possession and was still using it

118
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 4: and disseminating it after he left his role as the

119
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 4: National Security Advisor. Now, one of the problems in particular

120
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,919
Speaker 4: I think John Bolton may have created for himself is

121
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 4: his frequent commentary on others who have potentially used unclassified

122
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:58,440
Speaker 4: or civilian information systems to exchange information. He talked extensively

123
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 4: about Hillarry Clinton when she is a ledge to have

124
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 4: done that. He's talked about others using signal and other

125
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 4: communication apps to exchange information, has been very critical of

126
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 4: those practices. And so from just a pragmatic standpoint, I

127
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 4: think John Bolton may have a very difficult time in

128
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 4: being able to take the stand defend his actions, because

129
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 4: if he were to do so, I think any prosecutor

130
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 4: worth his or her sault would immediately use those past

131
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 4: statements that John Bolton has made against him in any

132
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 4: trial should he choose to go to trial.

133
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: Now here's the thing more than a thousand pages. What

134
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 1: would he use those for to write a book for

135
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: his own benefit? Would he share with us? Could he

136
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: sell that? I mean, is this information that could compromise

137
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,320
Speaker 1: the national security of the United States? That's what I

138
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: want to know, Zach. You've read the twenty six pages.

139
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: Any indication there.

140
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 4: Well, I say that, certainly the fear anytime classified information

141
00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 4: is disseminated or retained outside of proper channels. The exact

142
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 4: high I mean of when this information was distributed all

143
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 4: of that is not crystal clear from the indictment. It

144
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 4: certainly appears like he was transmitting some of this information

145
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 4: while he was still the National Security Advisor, in almost

146
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 4: real time. Essentially, what the indictment alleges is that John

147
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 4: Bolton would take extensive notes on legal pads during his

148
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 4: time as National Security Advisor. He would then go and

149
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 4: type up those notes and transmit those notes, which he

150
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 4: called his diary, to individuals that are not named in

151
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 4: the indictment. They're referred to as Individual one and Individual two.

152
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 4: Now media reports that those individuals that are not named

153
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 4: in the indictment are actually his family members, his wife

154
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: and his daughter, who he said were functioning as his editors.

155
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 4: So it seems obvious that John Bolton from the get go,

156
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 4: as his time as National Security Advisor, was planning to

157
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 4: write a memoir or a book about his time in

158
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 4: the Trump administration. And it certainly seems like these diaries,

159
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 4: these notes, that head that he didn't transmitted using personal

160
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 4: email accounts, that these were all part of his plans

161
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 4: to eventually write a book.

162
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: All right, So here's the question, Zach, you worked there,

163
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,120
Speaker 1: You know, when it comes to intelligence like this, is

164
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: there a problem with the voluminous amount of classified information

165
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: flying around in various classifications, you know, top secret, classified

166
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 1: for your eyes only, whatever it may be. Look, Joe

167
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: Biden had documents he wasn't supposed to have. Mike Pence

168
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: had documents he wasn't supposed to have. John Bolden seems

169
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: like a much more serious case. But do we have

170
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: a problem in Washington with too much classified information just

171
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: flying around?

172
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 4: Yes? Absolutely, I think anyone will tell you that. For

173
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 4: too long, there's been a sense that those at the

174
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 4: very top of our government are not taking their responsibilities

175
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 4: to safeguard and secure classified information seriously. Now I suspect

176
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 4: because of Joe Biden Mike Pence, others that you mentioned.

177
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 4: John Bolton and his lawyers may try to make some

178
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 4: type of selective prosecution claim. But again, I think one

179
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 4: of the problems that John Bolton may have created for

180
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 4: himself is that he has been very critical of those

181
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 4: other decisions not to prosecute others who have not maintained

182
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:21,760
Speaker 4: their own responsibility to safely and securely handle classified information.

183
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 4: But again, I think the indictment itself alleges why this

184
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 4: lack of seriousness, why this use of improper channels is

185
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,320
Speaker 4: so devastating. One of the allegations in the indictment is

186
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 4: that Iranian officials or someone in Iran hack John Bolton's

187
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 4: email accounts, got access to this information and then was

188
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 4: trying to use it to blackmail him in the process.

189
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 4: Those are very serious allegations. It shows the threat that

190
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 4: this type of lacks protocols poses, and so I think

191
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 4: it is why we are right to have a very

192
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: serious conversation about why so many officials at the top

193
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 4: of our government are not taking their responsibilities seriously.

194
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:02,720
Speaker 2: Well, and here's the other thing.

195
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: Obviously, these are printed documents, these are pages right that

196
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: they have stacks of apparently, and then you've got the

197
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: text messages, the emails.

198
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 2: The electronic communication. Then you've got AI out.

199
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: There hunting and looking all the time. Look, AI spyware

200
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: is out there, foreign governments using it all the time

201
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: to find weaknesses, to find a chink in the armor,

202
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 1: to find a sneaky way to get in the back door.

203
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: All of these are happening simultaneously. What can we do

204
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: to defend ourselves?

205
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: What can we do in America, Zach, to make our

206
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: national secrets and our national security frankly more secure.

207
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 4: Well, look, I think we have to start with holding

208
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,679
Speaker 4: those who do not fulfill their responsibilities accountable. There are

209
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 4: systems and procedures and processes in place to make sure

210
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 4: that classified information is retained in as safe and secure

211
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 4: in an environment as possible. But again, in the many

212
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 4: examples you just mentioned, that has not been the case.

213
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 4: There for too long has been a lack of time

214
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 4: consequences when officials have not followed proper protocols, and so

215
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 4: I think in John Bolton's case, these allegations are very serious,

216
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 4: and we're seeing an attempt to make sure that the

217
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:14,080
Speaker 4: rules and procedures that are very vigorously applied against low

218
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 4: level government officials who have security ad clearances access to

219
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 4: this information, that those same rules and consequences are applied

220
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,319
Speaker 4: when people in the very high levels of our government

221
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 4: do not follow those same rules and regulations as well.

222
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: All right, So the one question I have not asked

223
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,479
Speaker 1: as we bring this full circle, what is the penalty

224
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: eighteen counts serious counts under the Espionage Act?

225
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 2: This is not This is not something simple.

226
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: This is something very detrimental to his future, to his freedom.

227
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: If he was convicted, even on a couple of these charges,

228
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:50,559
Speaker 1: what would it mean.

229
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, each count carries up to ten years in federal prison.

230
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 4: Part of the indictment is they're asking for forfeiture of

231
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 4: certain proceeds he may have received from his book and

232
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 4: other profits as a result of retaining and disseminating this

233
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 4: classified information. So John Bolton has a lot of legal

234
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 4: exposure here. Now what's interesting. In a prior civil suit

235
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 4: related to his book, the judge in that case was

236
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 4: very critical of John Bolton. He noted that he may

237
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 4: have created both civil and criminal exposure for himself by

238
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,599
Speaker 4: the way he chose to move forward with publishing his memoirs.

239
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 4: And so I think we're seeing a lot of those

240
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 4: warnings really coming home to roost with this indictment.

241
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, and it's just the hubris And I

242
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: look at people like John Brennan and James Clapper and

243
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: others who have just been so cavalier about their behavior

244
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 1: in so many places in John Bolton and you look

245
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 1: at James Comey, and the list goes on. The cavalier,

246
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: arrogant attitude. Well, you know, sometimes it'll come back around

247
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: and get you. Zachly, appreciate you being here, thank you

248
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: for your expertise today.

249
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 4: Of course, thanks for having me on the show.

250
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: Absolutely, we'll keep an eye ten years per I mean

251
00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: that's a life sentence if you had jammed up all right.

252
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 2: Coming up after the break.

253
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: The Marine Corps will celebrate two hundred and fifty years

254
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 1: tomorrow at Pendleton in San Diego. Yeah, Camp Pendleton, California,

255
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: complete with weapon demonstrations.

256
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 2: We always like that.

257
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 1: I'll bring on the co host of Just the News,

Speaker 2: Here.

261
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: This a couple of weeks ago, I had the good

262
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: fortune to go to the East Coast and see the

263
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: United States Navy celebrate two hundred and fifty years.

264
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,680
Speaker 2: It was a remarkable display.

265
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: You got to stand on an aircraft carrier see incredible

266
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: demonstrations of American power.

267
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 2: It's all inspiring. Here.

268
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: Just recently, not too far from my house, they brought

269
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,079
Speaker 1: in twenty one brand new F fifteen EX two's. I

270
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: think they're called fighter jets, And there's just something about watching,

271
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 1: you know, fighter jets for the United States Air Force

272
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: or the Marines, the Navy come soaring over your head.

273
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 2: It just gives me this swelling of pride.

274
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: And this Saturday, the United States Marine Corps they'll take

275

00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: who lives in California, Carthy To discussed this, the co

285
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: host of just the news, no noise. Amanda Head, who

286
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: has a chance to stand in an absolutely perfect day.

287
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: She's got the shades on, she's got a smile on

288
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: her face because it's a cool event.

289
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 2: Amanda. Nice to see you.

290
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 7: Great to see you, Steve, And I'm with you on

291
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,360
Speaker 7: the flyover. I really hope I got to send a

292
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 7: message to the control room to not do a split

293
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 7: screen during the flyover with me on half of the screen,

294
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 7: because if history has shown anything, it's that I will

295
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 7: cry every time. So I am so excited to be here.

296
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 7: And they could not have ordered better weather if they

297
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 7: had not ordered it straight from God.

298
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 2: It's like mid.

299
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 7: Seventies, a very light breeze, not a cloud in the sky.

300
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 7: We of course, are right on the Pacific Ocean. Camp

301
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 7: Pendleton is nestled above San Diego, near ocean side, California,

302
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 7: and it's just a beautiful facility. And let me tell

303
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 7: you the raw power that is displayed here already. I

304
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 7: mean we're still twenty four hours out from the actual event,

305
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 7: but will I will use this opportunity to remind everybody

306
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 7: November tenth is actually the official birthday, but you know,

307
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 7: having this celebration during the summer fall. You know, here

308
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 7: in LA and here in southern California, summer extends basically

309
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 7: until October. So it's just magnificent. Cannot wait to share

310
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 7: with you all the things that are going to be

311
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 7: happening tomorrow. But it is bustling around here. As you

312
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 7: can see the production behind me. They are doing a

313
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 7: great job of setting up this stage. I would say

314
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 7: it's on par with some of President Trump's biggest campaign

315
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 7: rallies last year. They've got, obviously this huge stage set

316
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 7: up here, They've got grand stands behind, They've got grand

317
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 7: stands behind the camera that you can't see, and if

318
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 7: video screens everywhere, it's just going to be absolutely it's

319
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 7: perfectly fitting for the United States Marine Corps.

320
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 2: I will say that, because they deserve it.

321
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: You know, when we did the US Army Parade, I

322
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: was there for as well on the ground, and there

323
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: were critics who said, well, why would we do this?

324
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 1: America doesn't do this. Yes, we do on occasion. We

325
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: don't do the May Day parades like they do in

326
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: Russia and so forth.

327
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 2: But this is different.

328
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: This is a celebration of who we are as a country.

329
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: Two hundred and fifty years on. This is the Army,

330
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: the Navy, the Marines. It's a different thing, and man,

331
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 1: it just feels good. When I was there for the

332
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 1: Navy event, I felt like a twelve year old. I'm

333
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: just looking at all these incredible machines and all this

334
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: incredible powers you put in, Amanda. It is on inspiring,

335
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: isn't it.

336
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 7: It absolutely is. And you know, for the naysayers what

337
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 7: this is about, and the Army two fifty was the

338
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 7: same way. It is about in a this beautiful dichotomy

339
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 7: between innovation and tradition. And you see each of our

340
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 7: Armed services branches that are innovating in ways that other

341
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 7: countries envy, and at the same time they are still

342
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 7: rude and they are still anchored in tradition. Here simper fidelus,

343
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 7: you know, always faithful, those types of traditions that bond

344
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,639
Speaker 7: the men and women who who are who are a

345
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 7: part of the United States Marine Corps. It is about

346
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 7: showing our lethality, showing our preparedness, our defenses.

347
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 2: That's what it's about.

348
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 7: It's not about flexing muscles and trying to do something

349
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 7: that appears communistic, you know, evocative of Soviet era Russia.

350
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 2: That's not what this is about.

351
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 7: It is about showcasing what we have to offer, what

352
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 7: we used to protect the homeland. And at the end

353
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 7: of the day, as as Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth said,

354
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 7: we don't love war. We love our country. We want

355
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 7: to keep our country safe, and that's what this is about.

356
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,239
Speaker 2: You mentioned Pete Hegseth that was going to bring him up.

357
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: I'm glad you did, Amanda, because look when I saw

358
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: him walk out in front of all those sailors, they

359
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: went wild. When he is around the men and women

360
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: serving in the military, whether it's the Army, of the Navy,

361
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: of the Marines, they like him a lot. They embrace him.

362
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 1: So the critics, you know, oh, Pete heex has not

363
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,639
Speaker 1: qualified this that they respect him because he's been a

364
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,240
Speaker 1: soldier on the ground.

365
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 2: Do you get the same impression. Absolutely.

366
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 7: I mean you look at the reception that he gets

367
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 7: any time anytime Steve, whether it is a stateside or

368
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 7: whether it's abroad, anytime he is around troops from any

369
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,919
Speaker 7: branch of the military, he gets rousing applause. And it

370
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 7: is because he has been there. He's been in the barracks,

371
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 7: he's done the you know, the basic training. He has

372
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 7: done all of that that has put him in a

373
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 7: position to not only know what it takes to lead

374
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 7: people at the Pentagon, the three and four star generals,

375
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 7: to lead what frankly, I would argue is more of

376
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 7: a bureaucracy than anything than anything else. But he has

377
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 7: the ability to not only lead there at the Pentagon,

378
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 7: but to also be someone who these troops look up

379
00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 7: to and admire and revere.

380
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 2: And that's important. It's important to have both.

381
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,760
Speaker 7: Of those strengths in someone who is ultimately going to

382
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 7: leading this country in its preparedness against our adversaries.

383
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 1: There you go, a man a head live from Camp

384
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,040

Speaker 1: National Summit, happening right now in Orlando, Florida. Coverage will

Speaker 1: be held today and tomorrow. The into coverage of that

402
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: Marine two to fifty celebration, I'll bring on an expert

403
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: who's currently on location to discuss some of the ongoing

404
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 1: issues within education straight ahead on America's Voice Line. Well,

405
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: Virginia Democrats were seeing a lot of backlash over a

406
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: sexual predator case that made national news out of the

407
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: state chose not to prosecute a known sex offender. Transgender

408
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: individual Richard Kenneth Cox is fifty eight years old, good

409
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 1: looking fella there he is. Cox allegedly lied about his

410
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,919
Speaker 1: identity to enter a Virginia public school pool and the

411
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,919
Speaker 1: shower area after hours, where he exposed himself to young.

412
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 2: High school girls.

413
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: Democrats chowse to defend the transgender community instead of the children,

414
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 1: prioritizing identity politics over the safety of minor girls. Cox

415
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: also sent threatening emails to the school system just before

416
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 1: the election, stating he would not vote for and would

417
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: encourage others in the transgender community not to vote for

418
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: candidates who did not support their transgenderism. Here to discuss

419
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: Paul Runko, Senior director of Strategic Initiatives for Defending Education,

420
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: who is currently in Orlando, Florida, the Mom's for Liberty

421
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: Joyful Warriors National Summit.

422
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,320
Speaker 2: Paul, Welcome to the program. Thanks for having Steve.

423
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,680
Speaker 1: You know, I would I would feel better obviously if

424
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: this were an isolated incident, but it's not. This is

425
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,440
Speaker 1: not an isolated and so we see more and more

426
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 1: of this, and you wonder how many we don't hear about.

427
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:33,920
Speaker 1: This is a problem adult men posing as women being

428
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 1: granted access to locker rooms, restrooms, shower areas. It's insane

429
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: and frankly, I think it's immral. What do you say, Well.

430
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 8: As you mentioned, I'm here at the Monstere Liberty Summit

431
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 8: twenty twenty five and this is a big discussion here

432
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 8: right this transgender issue, particularly in schools K twelve schools

433
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 8: and our own polling, depending education my organization, our own

434
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 8: polling shows this is an eighty twenty issue. Parents across

435
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 8: the political spectrum, whether you're a Republican, Democrat, independent, believed

436
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 8: that girls should have their own spaces and that men

437
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 8: should not be allowed in girls' restrooms, girls' locker rooms,

438
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:15,719
Speaker 8: and their private spaces in schools. So we really need

439
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 8: to start getting back to what we believed years ago

440
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 8: when we had these policies in place, and not these

441
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 8: policies that you just mentioned gave this man access to

442
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 8: the Aquatic Centre locker rooms where.

443
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 2: You know, these alleged heinous acts took place.

444
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 1: Well, we are seeing you know, I saw a graph

445
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: here just yesterday. It showed this idea and the people

446
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 1: that identify as transgen it really started to spike twenty twenty,

447
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one. Here, peaked in twenty twenty three, and

448
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: now it's coming down fast because people are like, wait

449
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: a second, stop it. And let's be clear about this.

450
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 1: It was promoted. It was propaganda. People got lost on

451
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: YouTube and TikTok and now places told this is if

452
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: you don't feel quite, you might not be in the

453
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: right body, and all this other nonsense. It was propaganda

454
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: and advertising that drove this insanity. Thankfully, there's a lot

455
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: of pushback from you and organizations like Moms for Liberty.

456
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 2: How much more work do we have to do though,

457
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 2: to get those thing completely under control. Well, there's a

458
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:18,920
Speaker 2: lot of work to be done.

459
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 8: But parents got a really amazing decision from the Supreme

460
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 8: Court this year in my Mood versus Taylor, where the

461
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 8: Supreme Court reaffirmed parents' rights to opt their children out

462
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 8: of some of these LGBTQ plus books and curriculums in school.

463
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 8: And so parents really have this amazing tool now to

464
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 8: go to their schools and say, I know that this

465
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 8: transgender ideology starts right here in kindergarten, but my child

466
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 8: isn't going to be a part of it. And so

467
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 8: my organization and organizations like Moms for Liberty is encouraging

468
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 8: parents you can opt out, and you should opt out.

469
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 2: So let me ask you this, Paul, how old are

470
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 2: you in my mid thirties?

471
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: All right, so you went to high school, you've been

472
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: out for a few years. How many transgender kids did

473
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: you go to high school with?

474
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 2: None?

475
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,399
Speaker 8: And to your point, this was not and even you

476
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 8: know the fifteen years ago when I was in.

477
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,360
Speaker 2: School, right, that's my point.

478
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,800
Speaker 1: There were none when I went to school, none when

479
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,199
Speaker 1: my wife went to school, none when you went to school.

480
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: So it is a fairly recent phenomenon again, and my

481
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: estimation driven by propaganda and people praying on impressionable young people.

482
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: We have got to stop the sexualization of children period.

483
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 1: There seems to be this strange obsession with it. I

484
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 1: think you would agree with that.

485
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,000
Speaker 2: We need to scale that back, and we need to

486
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 2: fight at every step of the way, don't we.

487
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 8: Absolutely, And unfortunately the four years of the Biden administration

488
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,760
Speaker 8: really perpetuated this. As your viewers probably remember, the Biden

489
00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 8: administration tried to change Title nine to replace sex with

490
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 8: gender identity, and organizations like mine, organizations like Monster Liberty

491
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,800
Speaker 8: sued to stop the Biden administration from doing this, and luckily,

492
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 8: the Trump Title nine rule is now in effect, and

493
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 8: so we've seen his administration take states like California and

494
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 8: Maine to court over this and trying to keep men

495
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 8: out of girls' bathrooms, off of women's sports teams, and

496
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 8: prevent students from being disciplined when they feel they can't

497
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 8: affirm someone's supposed gender identity right.

498
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: Some states, however, still fighting defying the executive order. I

499
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: don't know where that leads, but probably they're going to lose.

500
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a big event their moms for liberty.

501
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're there, Paul. It's an important conversation for

502
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,479
Speaker 1: the folks there as well. And we'll have coverage here

535
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 2: Do it today. Coming up after the break, I'll discuss

536
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 2: the lack of new housing construction and how slow approval

537
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,719
Speaker 2: processes are creating problems in the building industry.

538
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: More on that coming up on abl.

539
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,360
Speaker 2: Well, the rising population over the years has seen its

540
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 2: fair share of challenges, but without doubt, one of the

541
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,840
Speaker 2: biggest ones has to do with housing. We have a

542
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 2: home crunch in this country.

543
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: Is we all know any architectural project has to go

544
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:55,040
Speaker 1: through various approval processes, and things get stickier and stricter

545
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: the farther you go, especially when federal funds and are involved,

546
00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: or any government funds for that matter, and then slow

547
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 1: down an approval could be the cause of not having

548
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 1: enough homes right now, invoking one to think about how

549
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,879
Speaker 1: American and the legislature can hasten approval and ramp up

550
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 1: production while making sure things are up to code.

551
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,639
Speaker 2: We've got to do all the things right, but we

552
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 2: got to do it faster. Join me to discuss this.

553
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 2: The senior director of Government Affairs for the National Taxpayers Union,

554
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,959
Speaker 2: Tommy Ilo. Tommy, nice to see on a Friday.

555
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: Listen, we need more houses in America and we've got

556
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: to get rid of the red tape. We need more

557
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 1: ribbon cuttings for new houses and less red tape to

558
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: cut through to get there.

559
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 2: What would you say to that that.

560
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 5: Has a great ring to it. Look, there's nothing more

561
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 5: fundamental to people than having a place to live. Whether

562
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 5: you're a renter or you're a homeowner, or you want

563
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 5: to buy a home, it's just way too expensive. Look,

564
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: we have mortgage rates coming down. It's a great thing

565
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 5: for people that want to refinance or purchase a new home.

566
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 5: But we need to do more. The President of the

567
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 5: United States, he's a builder. He understands the importance of

568
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 5: having more housing, and we need the Congress and the

569
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 5: administration to book more pressure on these local governments to

570
00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 5: speed up.

571
00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 2: The process to make that happen.

572
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 1: Look, cutting red tape has been a cornerstone of this administration.

573
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 1: For every new rule, you had to get rid of

574
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: a bunch of other rules to get there. Why the

575
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: slow and Look, I want to make sure the plumbing

576
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: is right, the electricals right, the roof is right.

577
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 2: We want to make sure that building codes are followed.

578
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: But there's got to be a way to expedite the

579
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: process because it is slow. I'm in the process of

580
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: redoing a house now that was involved with a fire,

581
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 1: and just getting through the codes is half the challenge.

582
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 2: We've got to do better.

583
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a real problem. There's only so much the

584
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 5: federal government can do in this space. But the way

585
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 5: we look at it is local governments. They put up

586
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 5: all these barriers. Right Los Angeles, for example, they require

587
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 5: parking minimums just for single family homes. They require the

588
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 5: twenty percent of all parking underground parking lots have to

589
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 5: have EV chargers. In New York City, if you build

590
00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 5: over one hundred stories, you're hit with all these extra

591
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 5: compliance costs. So people are building up to ninety nine

592
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 5: floors instead of that extra floor or more. So it's

593
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 5: a real problem. There's a really good bill introduced by

594
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 5: Congressman Mike Flood of Nebraska. He's a great conservative champion

595
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 5: for housing. It's a bipartisan bill. It says if local

596
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 5: governments want federal funds for housing, they need to show

597
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 5: how they're reducing barriers to building. It's a great bill.

598
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,760
Speaker 5: We're proud to support it and hopefully it gets passed

599
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 5: by the United States Congress.

600
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 2: Well there you have it, Tommy.

601
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,959
Speaker 1: Look, we've got to do better when you look at

602
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: places like I mentioned the fire that I have, but

603
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: Pacific Palisades, Malibo, they haven't built anything.

604
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 2: I didn't think they've cleaned much up so far.

605
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: Because of what regulations in California, which are probably worse

606
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 1: than just about anywhere else. But here they are with

607
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: what eighty thousand structures lost in those fires earlier this year.

608
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 1: We have got to be able to do so much better.

609
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a real problem. It's really a tale of

610
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 5: two parts of the country. You have these blue states

611
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 5: that put all these barriers up to building or rebuilding

612
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 5: after fires. Texas for example, right, everyone's flocking to Texas.

613
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 5: They're actually increasing their housing stock exponentially, Austin, Texas, which

614
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 5: a lot of young people from California are moving to.

615
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 5: Home price is there rental prices specifically down eighteen percent?

616
00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 5: We need to look to these red states Texas, Florida

617
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 5: and Tennessee. What are they doing. They're letting builders build,

618
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 5: it's helping consumers, lowering home prices. They should be the model.

619
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: For the country. Yeah, So how do we get there?

620
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 2: I mean, we can't.

621
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: Seem to agree on much of anything, not in state houses,

622
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 1: not on the federal level.

623
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 2: Is there something that Donald Trump can do?

624
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: Is there's something that people can do at the state

625
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: level to acptite and without cutting corners, And that's an

626
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,240
Speaker 1: important part.

627
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 2: Again.

628
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: We want the plumbing right, we want the roof right.

629
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: We want the electrical systems right. What can be done?

630
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 5: I think the President ken and should with his administration,

631
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 5: put pressure on these local governments to change some of

632
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 5: these ridiculously silly laws. In San Francisco, you can't build

633
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 5: over a certain height because it might block cloud coverage

634
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 5: in some neighborhoods. It's little things like that. That's what

635
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 5: we're talking about, not making you know, we're not changing

636
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 5: the laws, so we're cutting corners to what you said

637
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 5: and putting people's safety in jeopardy. It's these silly laws

638
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 5: like parking minimums, land sizes, height restrictions. That's what we

639
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 5: should be doing to put pressure on these governments to change.

640
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 5: And that's what Congressman Floods legislation would do.

641
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 4: But what the.

642
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 5: President can do is he can free up some federal lands,

643
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 5: especially in the West like Idaho or California, where these

644
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 5: all these pressures to increase that area where you can

645
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 5: build housing. That's where they can really do the most

646
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 5: amount of effectiveness. And I hope that's where they'll look.

647
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and demand is there.

648
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: I just saw the number of new home sales increase

649
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: twenty percent last But the demand is there. If the

650
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: houses were available, and if we can get interest rates

651
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: down another half a point or a full point, it

652
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: could really stimulate the purchase of homes new and used

653
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: in this country.

654
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 2: We really need to make some strides there as well.

655
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 2: I'll give you the last word.

656
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, people are still buying homes. Mortgage rates

657
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 5: coming down is going to make homes even more affordable

658
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 5: for people to buy. And look President's working class tax cuts,

659
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,080
Speaker 5: it's going to those taxes are going to help developers build,

660
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 5: build more housing, lower the prices. It doesn't get much

661
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 5: more simple than that. Supply and demand.

662
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 2: You got that right, Tommy, Have a happy Friday. Thank

663
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:17,200

686
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 1: States's gonna be on his way to marl Lago. Hasn't

687
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 1: been there for a while. It doesn't go in the summers,

688
00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: you know, not very often anyway. But he's going today

689
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 1: apparently going to spend the weekend. I'm going to guess

690
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: the man I play some golf. I'm going to take

691
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 1: the over on that on the over under all right.

692
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: Democratic Governor for New Jersey Phil Murphy has been called

693
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 1: out by his state for failing to address the rising

694
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:06,479
Speaker 1: surge and electricity prices, specifically for middle class families who.

695
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 2: Are getting squeezed and squeezed hard. President Trump has always

696
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,919
Speaker 2: been a proponent of America's energy independence. We talked about

697
00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,959
Speaker 2: here this week extensively, and to.

698
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: Further add to that, many suggest breaking away from utility

699
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: monopolies to stop such brazen price increases might be a

700
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: brilliant idea I would agree with that. Join me to

701
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:28,879
Speaker 1: discuss is the Chairman of Americans for Energy Dominance, Sam Romain. Sam,

702
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: thank you for being here, and I want to start

703
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 1: with this monopoly idea.

704
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,439
Speaker 2: I live in Michigan, as people know.

705
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 1: And there are two major electric companies in the state

706
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: DT and Consumers, and basically that covers more than ninety

707
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: percent of the people. And every year it seems they

708
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,760
Speaker 1: go to the legislature, Hey we need to raise our prices,

709
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: Hey we need to raise And every time there's a

710
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 1: rate increase, they're like, hey, look, these these monopolies are

711
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 1: getting rich.

712
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 2: They're not going broke. I can tell you that, Sam.

713
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 2: What do you think?

714
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, first, well thanks for having me on again.

715
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 9: I really appreciate your show. But going to the rate increase,

716
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,799
Speaker 9: I want to share some news with you. Fresh out

717
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 9: of California, PG and E just gave themselves high praise today.

718
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 9: For the first time in a decade, they decided not

719
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 9: to raise the rates double digits. What a fascinating concept

720
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 9: to be proud about.

721
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 2: But you're right.

722
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,760
Speaker 9: You don't have choice in this country about your utility

723
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 9: company in most cases.

724
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 2: Except for Texas.

725
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 9: And that's because we have it's called a regulated monopoly

726
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 9: market for these utility companies. And the reason they love

727
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 9: to spend money is because they get a guaranteed return

728
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,959
Speaker 9: on equity. The more money they spend, the more money

729
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 9: they get.

730
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 2: To charge you.

731
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 9: And even more fascinating, they can even roll in their

732
00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 9: lobbying cost into their rate case.

733
00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,799
Speaker 1: That's exactly right, and they can use that money for

734
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 1: political purposes as well, which they do. Let me ask

735
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 1: you about this here where I live, and I don't

736
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 1: know if this is true in all states, but you're

737
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,759
Speaker 1: the expert. If you put solar panels on your roof,

738
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: thinking you know what I'm going to do, the green

739
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: energy thing. I'm going to have this house itself sufficient

740
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,279
Speaker 1: where I live. You don't even own that electricity. It

741
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: goes into the system. It's still controlled by the two monopolies.

742
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: You might get a discount, but any extra electricity that

743
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:12,359
Speaker 1: goes into the system, that's theirs. It's a strange it's

744
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: a strange arrangement, to say the least.

745
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, so solar is an interesting thing. In many states,

746
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,640
Speaker 9: you have this agreement called net metering, where the energy

747
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 9: that you're sending off to the grid you get compensated for,

748
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 9: usually to offset your own usage. But some states that

749
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 9: are going even further, mostly in blue states, and saying actually,

750
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 9: when you send me power, I'm just going to keep

751
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 9: it and I'll sell it to your neighbor at exactly

752
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 9: do nothing.

753
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

754
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,279
Speaker 9: Now you do have states like Texas and Florida who

755
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 9: actually do have a favorable net metering. You know what's

756
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 9: really funny you bring up the green energy thing. I

757
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 9: don't think it's about green energy. I think it's bout

758
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 9: energy independence. But red states do it better. That's the

759
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 9: best part.

760
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, red states do it better.

761
00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: Look what we need in this country, we need more

762
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 1: nuclear that's for sure. We need to stop taking functional

763
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,239
Speaker 1: coal fired power plants that still have twenty five or

764
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: thirty or forty years in their lifespan, stop taking those offline,

765
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 1: and don't do what they did in Europe, which.

766
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 2: Is just bulldoze of things.

767
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: Now the Netherlands providing power to the whole big chunks

768
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,440
Speaker 1: of Europe because other countries got rid of their power plants,

769
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:19,760
Speaker 1: while China.

770
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 2: Is building ones that they're just putting over there for

771
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 2: future reference, not even using.

772
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 1: Them, building brand new coal fired power plants to say, hey,

773
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: we might need that in the future. Just build it

774
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: and we'll wait till we need it. It's a totally

775
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 1: different approach, isn't it.

776
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:33,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

777
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 9: Well, And the thing about it is that what we

778
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,040
Speaker 9: need to realize in this country is that electrons energy

779
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 9: are not red, blue, green, purple whatever. At the end

780
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 9: of the day, what we need to do is enable

781
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 9: the free market to choose the winner rather than propping

782
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,600
Speaker 9: up and having government pick winners and losers. And if that's.

783
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 2: Coal, so be it.

784
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 9: If that's nuclear grade, if that's solar, wonderful.

785
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 4: At the end of the day.

786
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 9: The free market has a really good track record of

787
00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 9: picking the winners and losers. Usually nuclear's gonna win out

788
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 9: on for base load power, absolutely, but it doesn't necessarily

789
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 9: make solar bad. What it does make, in my opinion

790
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:11,600
Speaker 9: is solar farm has become really bad. Clear Cutting farmland

791
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 9: and forest land for solar panels usually isn't the winner

792
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 9: in the free market economics. But when you start talking

793
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 9: about self generation on your home, it does have a space.

794
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,640
Speaker 2: To compete, right well, it should.

795
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: And again the Blue States basically stealing the energy you

796
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 1: create for the solar panels you paid for. It's the

797
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:33,720
Speaker 1: strangest setup I've ever seen. So we need more energy.

798
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is working that way. Chris Wright, I think

799
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: it was doing a great job as a Secretary of

800
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 1: Energy in this country, finding new ways to create energy,

801
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: being friendly to coal states like West Virginia and Wyoming.

802
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: These are all steps forward. But it's just a good start.

803
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you the last word.

804
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's a good start, but a lot of this.

805
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 9: Let's go back to New Jersey, just real quick to

806
00:39:55,320 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 9: finish off. What's happened in New Jersey is a political issue.

807
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,759
Speaker 9: You have good bills that are in front of the

808
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 9: state that they're not doing anything with. You have Governor

809
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 9: Phil Murphy, who they have passed the legislatures passed a

810
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 9: bill to cut red tape on permitting. He's sitting on it,

811
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:16,720
Speaker 9: automated permitting moving from three months to almost twenty four hours.

812
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 9: He won't even sign it. You also, back in twenty eighteen,

813
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 9: had legislature passed one of the most innovative battery programs

814
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 9: to do virtual power plants. Still hasn't been enacted. Now

815
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 9: you look at Texas, they did the same thing. They

816
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 9: did it in nine months and profitably. And so this

817
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 9: comes down to a political capital, political will, and most

818
00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 9: Blue states don't have the gumption to get it done.

819
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 9: They want to play the favoritism game.

820
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 2: New Jersey, We're counting on you do something smart. I'll

821
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 2: act the Republican governor be a step in the right direction. Sam,

822
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 2: thanks for being here, appreciate your time. Thank you so much.

823
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:55,480
Speaker 1: All Right, Well, every so often something happens that reminds

824
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 1: us just how fragile our freedoms are.

825
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 2: We can't afford to take our rights for granted.

826
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 1: We must draw line in the sand, and our friends

827
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,480
Speaker 1: at Patriot Mobile have been doing exactly that for a

828
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 1: dozen years. The truth is there's only one provider that

829
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,319

00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 1: freedom and that it's worth fighting for that, of course,

831
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,240
Speaker 1: my friends, is Patriot Mobile.

852
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,520
Speaker 1: I brought you Paul Runko from Orlando, Florida, an event

853
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,760
Speaker 1: by Moms for Liberty called the Joyful Warriors National Summit.

854
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: Real America's Voice correspondent Bo Davison also at the event.

855
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: He joined me on to discuss what's coming up.

856
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 4: Bo.

857
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,600
Speaker 1: Nice to see you. Glad you having a good Friday.

858
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 1: So tell me about the event. It's going to be

859
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: covered here extensively on Real America's Voice. What can we expect?

860
00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 10: Yeah, Steve revs imprint is all over this event, and

861
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 10: you know, Moms for Liberty. Steve was started in twenty

862
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 10: twenty one by two moms who were school board members.

863
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 10: And we think about back to twenty twenty, twenty twenty one,

864
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 10: what was going on, what were people paying attention to

865
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 10: or not paying attention to? And since that time they've

866
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:05,240
Speaker 10: started this organization very very grassroots to empower and educate parents.

867
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 10: And I say that parents because it's not just the moms,

868
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,239
Speaker 10: it's the dads too. There are men's panels here as

869
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 10: where as well on fatherhood. So it's important to know

870
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 10: that parental rights are still important. They will continue to

871
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 10: be important, thankfully here in Florida where I am at

872
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 10: this Orlando conference. Florida has set a standard. Governor DeSantis

873
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 10: has made it very clear where he stands on parnal rights,

874
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 10: and it's a template, I think, Steve for the rest

875
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 10: of the country to follow, because Dessantas is not afraid

876
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:32,799
Speaker 10: to stand up to this well, and.

877
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 2: I agree with that. Look, we need to take a

878
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: stand for calling out the absurd. We do. We have

879
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 2: to call out the absurd, don't we.

880
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 1: It's kind of our I mean, I take it seri

881
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: as be part of our job here on real America.

882
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,640
Speaker 2: But I say, wait a second. People don't buy that.

883
00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 10: Right, Yeah, I mean, let me give you an example

884
00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 10: to my mom sent me this story happened just in

885
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 10: the past couple of days.

886
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: Fernando, Mississippi.

887
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,399
Speaker 10: A grand jury indicted Lindsay Whiteside, a former basketball coach

888
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 10: in youth minister, of sexual battery of a child.

889
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 2: Steve.

890
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,040
Speaker 10: The DA wanted thirty years, but they only got she

891
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,840
Speaker 10: only got ten years of court supervision. And the kicker

892
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,360
Speaker 10: is this a school board member and vice principal Michelle

893
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 10: Henley openly supported Whiteside in court. Now you can imagine

894
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 10: the DA and the family of the victim were mortified

895
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 10: about this.

896
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:18,479
Speaker 2: This is why, Steve, elections matter.

897
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,720
Speaker 10: They have consequences, and its group like Moms for Liberty

898
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 10: that can keep pressure on school boards and vice principles

899
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 10: and people all over this country who are simply doing

900
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:28,239
Speaker 10: the wrong thing.

901
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, let me ask you a question, bo last question here.

902
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: If if bodied parts don't determine whether you're a man

903
00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 1: or a woman, why did transgender people alter their bodies

904
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: to fit the secks they believe they are.

905
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:47,479
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm a little confused by that helped me out.

906
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:50,959
Speaker 10: I don't know if I can help you there, Steve,

907
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:52,120
Speaker 10: that's the million dollar question.

908
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:52,960
Speaker 2: I've never understood it.

909
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 10: I've never understood how women's rights and feminism are supposed

910
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,239
Speaker 10: to matter if male and female don't matter anymore, if

911
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,400
Speaker 10: the lines are blue. I'm sure you probably saw that

912
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 10: study that said that, you know, the identification of college

913
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:08,120
Speaker 10: students among transgenders has been cut in half. Is that true?

914
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 10: I certainly hope so. I hope we've hit the peak

915
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,560
Speaker 10: woke period. I hope we're in a post woke era.

916
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,839
Speaker 10: But I can tell you here at this conference, at

917
00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 10: this summit, parents are putting pressure on school boards on

918
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,200
Speaker 10: their principles, on their teachers, on the teachers' union. Steve,

919
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,839
Speaker 10: you know you've reported on this a lot. We've got

920
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,600
Speaker 10: to keep pressure on them because the rights of parents

921
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 10: are critical. As a new father, I got to tell

922
00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 10: you I'm learning a lot here.

923
00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 2: Well as well. You should. Being a dad takes a

924
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:35,359
Speaker 2: lot of work.

925
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: But we need more dads in America too, So it's

926
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 1: an important job both, the most important one you may

927
00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:40,480
Speaker 1: ever have.

928
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 2: Thank you for being here. Have a great weekend. I'm

929
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:47,560
Speaker 2: sure we'll talk again, you bet. Thanks Steve. There, you

930
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 2: have it all right. So next up, my good friend

931
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:53,879
Speaker 2: Eric Bowling standing by to take the baton as I'm coming,

932
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 2: running around the back stretch and heading into the checkered tape.

933
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 2: There it is Eric Bowling. Everybody, good looking fella there.

934
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 6: He is good to see it, Grobert, really really good

935
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 6: to see. I saw Zelenski and the Oval office. I

936
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 6: saw our own Brian Glenn.

937
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 2: You know she's wearing a different color suit.

938
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 6: Because last time Zelenski says, you're always wearing the same suit,

939
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:16,360
Speaker 6: so very stutely or the tan suit that was. That

940
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,319
Speaker 6: was a brilliant, brilliant move on that one. I didn't

941
00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 6: see if they had an interaction back and forth about

942
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:21,280
Speaker 6: what he was wearing.

943
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:24,840
Speaker 2: But yeah, Steve, I just I just hate.

944
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 6: The idea that we're financing or helping finance a war

945
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:29,760
Speaker 6: that personally, I don't think.

946
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,800
Speaker 2: We should be even involved. But that is my personal

947
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,320
Speaker 2: I'm kind of a nice I am on the same

948
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,839
Speaker 2: page with you. Look, I think that Putin's a terrible guy,

949
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,280
Speaker 2: but I think that that's Europe's problem first and foremost.

950
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 2: Should we maybe help him out? Yes, but you know,

951
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:44,719
Speaker 2: we've been sent the bill over and over again, not

952
00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,759
Speaker 2: just for this war, but for the last seventy or

953
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 2: eighty years. I think we can do better things with

954
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,719
Speaker 2: our resources and not fight Europe's wars every time they

955
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 2: have a problem. But hey, that's just my opinion. Eric.

956
00:46:55,120 --> 00:47:00,760
Speaker 6: I am straight up libertarian, and I'll call myself a Conservetorian.

957
00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 6: So I like the conservative part of smaller government, lower

958
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,600
Speaker 6: your taxes, let us handle what we do with our

959
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 6: own money. And then the other part, I just I don't.

960
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 6: I'm I'm a little different in the state. I don't

961
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 6: care who you sleep with or what you want to wear.

962
00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 6: I really don't just keep it away from the kids,

963
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:17,919
Speaker 6: keep it away from me through your.

964
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 2: Things from the kids. Yeah, exactly that you got it,

965
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 2: Not exactly
