1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,520 Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to another episode of the Mark Mass Show. 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: Where we're always talking about the decentralized revolution. We're talking 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: about the way the entire world is changing. The world 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 1: is breaking apart into a world of deglobalization, and we 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: look at it through the lens of politics, finance, and technology, 6 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: so you have great greater context as to what is happening. 7 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,880 Speaker 1: A lot of times you just look at the economic side, 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: the macroeconomic picture, or the political side, and it's hard 9 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: to understand how all this works together. So we have 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: to look at all three together, and I like to 11 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: bring to you some of the latest breaking news headlines 12 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: to bring some context to this so you can understand 13 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 1: the play by play. I got a lot to cover 14 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 1: on this show. We're going to go through what's happening 15 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,919 Speaker 1: in the finance space, in the technology space. We're going 16 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: to talk about some freedom things. We're going to talk 17 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: about voting with your feed. We're going to talk about 18 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: the government flip flopping back and forth on a bunch 19 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: of different positions, and more. It's been a busy week 20 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: in the headlines. As always, the world is changing really 21 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: really fast, and so you know, the first thing I 22 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: want to talk about is at the time as that 23 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: we're recording this. Unfortunately, we have another war that appears 24 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: to be breaking out. We obviously have the Rush of 25 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: Ukraine situation that is still underway, although it looks like 26 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: support for Ukraine has been waning pretty quickly, pretty quickly. 27 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: And now we have another situation in the Middle East 28 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: that's erupting with Israel and Palestine potentially pulling in other figures. 29 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: You know, the United States is sending weapons and sending 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: destroyers and aircraft carriers, maybe funding both sides. I don't 31 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: want to get into the nitty gritty details of that, 32 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: but we'll see how this plays out. We'll be talking 33 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,240 Speaker 1: about it more. But there's massive implications of this for 34 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: many many reasons, including from the financial side of things, 35 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 1: and really what's going to happen with the oil markets 36 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: and the natural gas markets, and what's going to happen 37 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 1: with inflation, and so when you start thinking about those 38 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: types of things, you have to think about how do 39 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: you protect yourself in times of geopolitical risk. Now, obviously 40 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: if you live in the Middle East, you have to 41 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: think about your physical protection, like do I want to 42 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: be here if there's gonna be bombs happening. Maybe if 43 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: you're in other countries or even maybe in the United 44 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: States and big cities, you know, could I be in 45 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: the way of retaliation. But specifically, we're talking about how 46 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: do we protect our wealth in times of geopolitical risk. Now, 47 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,679 Speaker 1: you know, an insensitive comment to you know, people in 48 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: Palestine or Israel might be you know, why don't they 49 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: just leave? Not everyone has the ability to just leave. 50 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: They don't have the money. So we always want to 51 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: take care of our money first. And one of the 52 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: best ways that we have been able to protect our 53 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: wealth from geopolitical events forever has been by taking money 54 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: outside of the system. Just this week we saw a 55 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,399 Speaker 1: hedge fund giant, Paul Tudor Jones, said that the combination 56 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: of extensive geopolitical risk and rising US government debt levels 57 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: make it very difficult to own stocks. So we've seen, 58 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: you know, the equity markets and stock markets have not 59 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 1: been doing well. They've been sort of range bound, chopping 60 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: back and forth. We have US government, the treasury auctions. 61 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 1: You know, the government is issuing more debt than ever before. 62 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: Just this week, ever since the Israel situation popped up, 63 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,119 Speaker 1: the treasury markets are the yields are starting to pull 64 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: back a little bit. There's a lot of uncertainty in 65 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,959 Speaker 1: the markets, if you will, And Paul Tudor Jones said, 66 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: this might be the most threatening geopolitical environment I've ever seen. 67 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: He was on CNBC Squawkbox talking about this. He also 68 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: took note of the US fiscal position. So it's not 69 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: just the geopolitical environment. Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Palestine, you know, China, Taiwan. 70 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: There's three potential things going off in the world right now. 71 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: But he also again said the US fiscal position. So 72 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: you know that the US has been sending you know, 73 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: well over one hundred billion dollars to Ukraine. Now they're 74 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: saying that maybe we'll just send them another one hundred billion. 75 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: Now we're sending i think it was four or five 76 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: billion to Israel. We're sending money to Palestine as well, 77 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: and so we also have to look at the fiscal position, 78 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: is what he said, calling it the eeakest he's seen 79 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: since at least World War Two. He said, quote, as 80 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: interest costs go up in the United States, you get 81 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: in the vicious circle where higher interest rates cause higher 82 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: funding costs, cause higher debt issuance, which cause further bond liquidation, 83 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: which caused higher rates, which is basically this doom loop 84 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: that we go into. And he says, I can't love stocks, 85 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: he said, but I love bitcoin and gold. So those 86 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: are two things that he's talking about. And so it's 87 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: important to understand that getting your money out of the 88 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: system in times of geopolitical risk and high debt seem 89 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: to make sense. Bitcoin and gold, And you know, gold 90 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: has been great for five thousand years, but it has 91 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: its limitations, specifically on the physical aspects of it. We 92 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: saw there's another report that came out this week from 93 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: matrix port saying that bitcoin is better than digital gold 94 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: even and you know, they kind of point to this 95 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: connection between gold and bitcoin and how they've been stores 96 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: of value and things like that, but how the demand 97 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: for bitcoin is a digital store value was a big 98 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: reason why it continues to grow an outpaced gold. So 99 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: think about it. If you're running for your life from 100 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: Ukraine or Palestine or Israel, wherever it may be, it's 101 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: very difficult to take all your gold with you, but 102 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: you can take bitcoin with you pretty quickly, and so 103 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: it's pretty easy to see the big differences there. But 104 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 1: then we also have to take the downside of this 105 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: implication as well. So, for example, we saw in the 106 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: Israel Palestine situation, we can see that crypto accounts were 107 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: actually frozen by Israel and Binance. So we saw that 108 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,359 Speaker 1: Hamas lenked crypto accounts were frozen by Israeli police with 109 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: Binance's help. The Israel police have frozen cryptocurrency accounts linked 110 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: to Palestine militant group Hamas, the cyber arm of Israel's 111 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,839 Speaker 1: police unit, worked with the country's defense ministry, intelligence agencies 112 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: and crypto exchange Binance to target the accounts in question. Now, 113 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: a lot of you that maybe aren't super familiar with 114 00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general, maybe don't understand this. The 115 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: crypto accounts were frozen, so you have to understand. In bitcoin, 116 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: we say not your keys, not your coin, so to speak. 117 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: And so we never really actually download bitcoin. We don't 118 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: actually download coins or tokens. What we have is we 119 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: have the private key. So we have the key in 120 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: order to open up this digital locker and move them, 121 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: if you kind of imagine it that way. And so 122 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: what happens is if you don't have your key, then 123 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: someone else has it. If you have your bitcoin on 124 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: an exchange like Binance in this case, or coinbas or 125 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, they hold your key for you. 126 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: So in this case Israel police, we're able to get 127 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: Binance to freeze the accounts that were linked back to Hamas. 128 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how they link them back. They 129 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,160 Speaker 1: use some sort of chainalysis to software to do that. 130 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: But it reinforces the point that if it's not your keys, 131 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 1: it's not your coins. When you look back through all 132 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: the instances where governments have been able to seize bitcoin, 133 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: it's because they were able to get that private key. 134 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: So in some cases they raided the house while the 135 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: computer open. In other cases they hack into the computer. 136 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 1: But it's always about finding that private key. Imagine if 137 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: you had gold, for example, and you buried your gold 138 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: out into the desert to keep it safe, and so 139 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: you kept a treasure map a map to that gold. 140 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: If somebody got a hold of your map, it'd get 141 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: a hold of your gold, and you have to protect 142 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: that key. And in this case they did that, and 143 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: it's just a reminder of this, not your key's not 144 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: your coin. Now it brings up a bigger point, which is, well, 145 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: should we be able to do that. Should known criminals 146 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: like Hamas be able to hold bitcoin that we can't 147 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: seize that we can't censor or sanction. Well, that's part 148 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: of this big debate that we see specifically heating up 149 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: over in Europe where Europe and even Elizabeth Warren in 150 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: the United States is starting to try to pass this 151 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: bill where they want to ban our ability to hold 152 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: our private keys. They don't want us to hold our 153 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: private keys because they want to be able to take 154 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: our money away from us whenever they want if we've 155 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 1: been a naughty boy or a naughty girl. From that matter, 156 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: over in Europe, can see that Italy's Sipoloni defends the 157 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: digital euro as he seeks an ECB role, so he's 158 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: trying to get into the European Central Bank and they're 159 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: trying to push this CBDC at Digital Euro and he 160 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: said that it would quote reinforce the ability to pay 161 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,119 Speaker 1: with public money, which is not really what people want. 162 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: But what they really want is they want the ability 163 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: to do as he said, for financial stability and lending 164 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: could be managed through measures like imposing holding limits on citizens. 165 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: So they want to be able to impose limits on 166 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: how much you can hold what you can hold it through, 167 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: what types of terms you can do this on. Look, 168 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: freedom is a messy situation. But for every one or 169 00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 1: two people that might do something wrong, we have ninety 170 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 1: nine or one hundred other people that wouldn't. And you 171 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: have to understand that this is not a black or 172 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: white issue. Again, freedom is messy. We have laws about 173 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: against doing things that are illegal, but not everything is 174 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: cause and effect. People that do illegal things also probably 175 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,200 Speaker 1: eat food, and they probably drive cars, and they probably 176 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: use telephones as well. We don't take away all those things. 177 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: And so this is going to be a battle shaping 178 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: up that we're going to continue see play out over 179 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: the years and decades to come. And I'll definitely keep 180 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: you up to date on what's going on. If you're 181 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: just tuned in, you're listening to the Mark mas Show 182 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: running through some of the latest breaking news headlines this week. 183 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: I got a whole lot more to cover when I 184 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: come back, So don't go away. I'll be her back, 185 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: all right, Welcome back. If you just tune in, you're 186 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: listening to the Mark Maus Show, We're running through some 187 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: of the latest breaking news headlines this week, so you 188 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: can understand what the heck is going on out there 189 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: in this world. Of course, we're always looking at through 190 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: the lens of politics, finance, and technology, so we can 191 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: get a better context for what's going on. And I 192 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: saw several stories pop up this week that really we're 193 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: telling us this story, and it's really the story that's 194 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: been raging. Really, I would say, accelerated when the pandemic 195 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: happened in twenty twenty, when we saw really this glaring 196 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: difference between states and the United States. Now, for those 197 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: of you that understand history properly, you know that the 198 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: United States isn't a democracy. We're a constitutional republic and 199 00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 1: the states are supposed to be independent. So during this, 200 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 1: you know, the pandemic era, we saw some states like 201 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: California and New York trying to really set the bar 202 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: really high for maximum shall we say, talk totalitarianism, shall 203 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: we say, trying to set the bar really really high 204 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 1: for maximum control and how much freedom they could take 205 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: away using this emergency pandemic as an excuse. And then 206 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: on the other side, we saw red states, specifically you 207 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: can think about Florida and Texas taking the opposite stance 208 00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: and giving more freedom back. And this kicked off this 209 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 1: global migration, the Great Migration, if you will, where people 210 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: were voting with their feet. Texas and Florida became massive beneficiaries, 211 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: not just Texas and Florida, but other states as well 212 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: that were preserving freedoms. We're the massive beneficiaries of people 213 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: leaving California and New York. New York basically emptied out 214 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: and went down to Jacksonville, Florida. California emptied out, went 215 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: to Austin, Texas. And we can see this, but it's continued, 216 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,080 Speaker 1: and this week we saw another big piece and it's 217 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: following in California steps. You would think that these leaders, 218 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: like the governor like Gavin Newsom, would finally learn his lesson. 219 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: You know, if these governors actually had some skin in 220 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: the game. Imagine if they ran the state like a 221 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: CEO of a business would run it. And let's say 222 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: that they were incentivized by how well the people did. 223 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 1: Let's say that they got bonuses if they were able 224 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: to bring the per capita income up of their citizens 225 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: or things like that. But instead, no, they do the opposite, 226 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: and so California has gone from having a one hundred 227 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: billion dollar surplus to having like a fifty billion dollar 228 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: deficit as Gavin Newsom has run all the businesses out 229 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: of California. Silicon Valley is gone, they went to Austin. 230 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,319 Speaker 1: Facebook is gone, right, Tesla's gone out there. Silicon Valley 231 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: is leaving in mass Hollywood left in mass As a 232 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: matter of fact, I think California is now like ranked 233 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: the fourth ranked state for movies. Now they've gone. They 234 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: don't want to make movies in the state, the actors 235 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 1: don't want to live in the state. They're all gone. 236 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: And we're seeing the same thing happen in other states. 237 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: This week we saw Smith and Wesson, the gun manufacturer, 238 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,719 Speaker 1: decided to pull up stakes in a blue state with 239 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 1: worsening gun control laws and decided to move to Tennessee. Now, 240 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: Smith and Wesson has been making guns for over one 241 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:25,199 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy years, and they've been headquartered in Massachusetts. 242 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: They employ lots of people, they employ almost one thousand people, 243 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: and they said that the Democratic gun control legislation in 244 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: Massachusetts is just so strong that they can no longer 245 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: operate in the state, and so they've decided to move 246 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: to Tennessee. Now, Tennessee opened up their arms and brought 247 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: them over and they said, hey, come on over, we 248 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: would love to have you, and as a matter of fact, 249 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: we'll even give you some money to help you. And 250 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: so they're coming. They're taking almost one thousand jobs with them, 251 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty five million dollars of investment. They've 252 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: committed to offer a twenty five almost a twenty six 253 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: dollars sustained minimum wage. So they're like, hey, we'll come 254 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: over to Tennessee. We're going to create a thousand jobs 255 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: at almost twenty six dollars an hour, which is in 256 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: Tennessee's a lot more than it is in California. We're 257 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: watching this play out in real time. Per the Cato 258 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 1: Institute's estimation, they say, quote, the Second Amendment is nearly 259 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: a dead letter in Massachusetts. The state tries to make 260 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 1: guns as expensive as possible, locking mandates dealer licensing license 261 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: to purchasing a gun safety training and all of these things. 262 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: And Tennessee, by the way of comparison, is ranked as 263 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 1: the fourth most free state in the nation. So we're 264 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: starting to see this play out now as these states 265 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: New York, California, and now Massachusetts continue to impose their 266 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: way on the businesses. The businesses move. Once they move, 267 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 1: they don't come back. And so these are like irreversible things. 268 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: When California has driven away movie studios, when they've driven 269 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: away Silicon Valley, they don't come back. When Massachusetts drives 270 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: Smith and Weston out, they don't come back. This is 271 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 1: a permanent loss. This week I saw another headline Dean Kin, 272 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: the actor, celebrates leaving California. He's going to Las Vegas. 273 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 1: He cites mostly the costs as well as the politics 274 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: for his reasoning for one to leave. He said it 275 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: wasn't just for him and his expenses and his costs 276 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: and his taxes, but for his kids. And he's saying, 277 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: how much better his life is in California. I'm sorry 278 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: in Vegas now, not just for him, but for his kids. 279 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: And he's following another famous actor, Mark Wahlberg, who famously 280 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: left California to go to Las Vegas as well. And again, 281 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: it's not just the money, which the money is a 282 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: big piece of it, but it's the politics. It's the 283 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: quality of life for the family. California's doing everything they 284 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: can to break down the family unit. As a matter 285 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: of fact, a California lawmaker I forget his name, recently 286 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: but he said, Look, he said, I'm here to fight 287 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: for you guys, but I'm going to tell you right now, 288 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: if you have a family, leave, do not be in California. 289 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 1: They're passing laws where like, for example, if you don't 290 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: affirm your child's gender, they can take your kids away 291 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: from you. And so it's no doubt, no reason why 292 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: it's not a mystery why people are flooding in exodus 293 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: out of these states, these Blue states. Now, as bad 294 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: as it is and as much as I dislike it, 295 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: but sort of the way it's supposed to work, right, 296 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: California are to say, the states are supposed to be independent, 297 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: and so they can run these experiments. Hey, Blue states, 298 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: you do you You be super restrictive. You make it 299 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: very hard for businesses to operate there. You take away 300 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: all people's freedoms, you make it super expensive, and people leave. 301 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: And then other states, hey, let's make it more free, 302 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: and let's let peop people keep more of their money, 303 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: and let's let family let's celebrate families, and let's let's compete. 304 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: Let's see which states work better. Now you have Gavin 305 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: Newsom over there trying to criticize Ron DeSantis and Ron 306 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 1: de Santis is like, look, man, all your people came 307 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 1: to my state. They already voted, Like, we don't have 308 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: to discuss this. They already voted with their feet and 309 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: their money, and that's exactly how it should stay. There 310 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 1: was another headline I saw this week back to California. 311 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: Renter has decided to stay in their luxury airbnb in 312 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: California for a year without paying any money and they're 313 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: demanding one hundred thousand dollars to get out. What wait, 314 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 1: what now? If you don't live in California, this might 315 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,400 Speaker 1: seem as a shock to you as of being a 316 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: real estate investor in California, This is no shock to me. 317 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 1: This is why I do not own rental properties in 318 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: California anymore because of the tenant rights laws that they have. 319 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: So this person went to rent the property and decided 320 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 1: not to pay. They've been there for a year without paying, 321 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: but the homeowner still has to make the payment. So 322 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: the home owner is going broke, but they can't legally 323 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: get them out of the house because of California's protecting 324 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: tenant rights even when the tenant is not paying. And 325 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: not only have they not paid for a year, that 326 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: the homeowners on the hook for now potentially you know 327 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: who knows, I don't know their situation, but potentially getting 328 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: in very difficult financial trouble, maybe even potentially going to 329 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: cost them to lose the house. And now they're demanding 330 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand dollars to leave. So not only do 331 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: you have California with their height, you know, all their 332 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: high fees, high taxes, et cetera. Then they pass laws 333 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 1: that take away your rights as an owner, and they 334 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 1: have for example, in Los Angeles and San Francisco, they 335 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 1: have you know, they have limits on how much you 336 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 1: can raise the rents, for example, rent control. All of 337 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: this capital is leaving California and it doesn't come back, 338 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: which is why California finds itself in a fifty billion 339 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: dollar deficit and it's not coming back anyway. If you're 340 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: just tuning in, you're listening to the Mark mass Show. 341 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: We're talking through some of the latest breaking news headlines 342 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,560 Speaker 1: so you can understand the decentralized revolution as it's happening. 343 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: Play by play. I got a whole lot more to 344 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: cover when I come back after a very short break. 345 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: Don't go away, I'll be back, all right, Welcome back. 346 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 1: If you just tune in, you are listening to the 347 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: Mark Moas Show. We're running through some of the latest 348 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: breaking news headlines this week as we look at the 349 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: lens of the world, or the world through the lens 350 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: of politics, finance, and technology and so boys, you know, 351 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,480 Speaker 1: looking at that lens. Like I said, the world's crazy 352 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: right now. There's no shortage of things to talk about. 353 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: Something I talked about last week that I thought was 354 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 1: pretty interesting and important is what I think might be 355 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: one of the biggest and most important issues in America 356 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: to Americans, and really it's through most of Western Europe 357 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: and actually maybe the whole world to that matter, and 358 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: it's immigration. So what do I mean by that, Well, 359 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: Western Europe and America is having massive inflow of immigration, 360 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: and other parts of the world have massive outflow of immigration. 361 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: So it's a big problem no matter where you're at. Recently, 362 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: you know, in regards to the Russi of Ukraine war, 363 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: I think it was Mitch McConnell was trying to drum 364 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: the beat of war, trying to raise more money for Ukraine, 365 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: and he said, it's the single most important issue for 366 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: Americans that we raised this money to send to Ukraine. 367 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: And as an American, I can tell you that it's not, well, 368 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 1: certainly not my single most important issue. It's not anywhere 369 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: even on my top twenty five. It's not even an 370 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: issue at all. I would guess it's certainly not the 371 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: single most important issue for majority of Americans. Not that 372 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: I want to speak on behalf of everybody, but I 373 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: would guess probably a more pressing issue for Americans is 374 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 1: the open border. Seven million people have come across the border. 375 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: Almost a record three hundred thousand people just last month 376 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: came across the border. Along with it, the Mexican cartels 377 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: are using it to smuggle people, smuggle drugs, as well 378 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: as lots of nationals from other countries that may not 379 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: be so friendly. But I want to get into a 380 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: little bit more of that. You got the news headlines 381 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 1: on your own, right, you can go read death stuff 382 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: on your own, but let me give you some more 383 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: context that you won't be getting from this now. Again, 384 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 1: this is my opinion, is probably the single most important 385 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: issue for most Americans, especially when the number one cause 386 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: of death in America for eighteen to thirty five year 387 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: olds is ventnyl overdose, which is coming across the southern 388 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: border the number one cause of death. Shouldn't that probably 389 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: be one of our main concerns. Remember how big of 390 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: a concern the whole COVID pandemic was, and that wasn't 391 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: our number one cause of death. Shouldn't this be a 392 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: bigger concern? Well, we should probably think about securing the border. 393 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, every nation thinks about securing 394 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: the border unless there's a reason not to. So what 395 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: am I talking about? Let's go through. I pulled up 396 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: a little video clip here that I want to play 397 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: a little audio clip, and we get this ready. This 398 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: is Obama. I think it's Hillary Clinton, it's Joe Biden, 399 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: and let me see who else is on. Well, i'll 400 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: talk about when we play this third And this is 401 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: a before and then after. So this is what they 402 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 1: said about the need for a border war before the 403 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: border wall, before and what they said after. Here let's 404 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 1: hear from Obama. 405 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: Here we go. 406 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: It will authorize some badly needed funding for better fences 407 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: and better security along our borders. Defence, isn't it Okay? 408 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: So there's Obama saying the border wall is needed. He 409 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 1: called the fence it's certainly needed. We're gonna get more money. 410 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: We certainly need it. And here he is, now, let's 411 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: hear what he has to say, Well, basically complete, Maybe 412 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: they'll need a moat. Maybe they want alligators in the 413 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: moat secure our board. So he's saying, he's joking, he's 414 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: being sarcastic. The fence is complete, and they're still saying 415 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: it's not enough. Maybe they need a mote. Now, maybe 416 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 1: we should give them some alligators. Well, you certainly know 417 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: the fence isn't complete. You certainly know that Trump pushed 418 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 1: through building a wall. And as we talked about last week, uh, 419 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,479 Speaker 1: the Biden administration is selling off the wall rather than 420 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: building it. We'll come back to that a little bit. 421 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: So he's completely gaslight. And let's hear from Hillary Clinton. 422 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: Now, secure our borders with technology, personnel, physical barriers if 423 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 2: necessary in some places, we will. 424 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: So there she is saying, we need to secure our 425 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: border with technology, with fences, whatever we need to do 426 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: to secure the border. That was then let's hear what 427 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: she has to say, now. 428 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 2: Not build a wall. Instead, we will build an economy 429 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 2: where everyone who wants a good job can get one. 430 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 1: So she said, no, now we're not going to build 431 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 1: a wall. So flip flopping. Now, let's here from President 432 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: Biden when he was Senator Joe Biden. Let's hear what 433 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: he has to say here, voted for I. 434 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: Voted like unlike most Democrats me, well like, I voted 435 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 2: for seven hundred miles. 436 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: So there he is saying, I voted for the fence. 437 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: I voted for this, and most Democrats don't like me. 438 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: I voted for seven hundred miles of fence. Let's go on. 439 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: Let me tell you. People would drive across that border 440 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 2: with ton ton period ton of every day from by 441 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,000 Speaker 2: products for cocaine to Harold. 442 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: He said, people are driving across the border with tons. 443 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: He repeated that three times, tons, tons, tons of products 444 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: to make methamphetamines, drugs, cocaine, and heroin. I voted for 445 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,239 Speaker 1: the wall. I voted to put seven hundred miles up, 446 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: even though the Democrats don't want to be cut. Tons, 447 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: tons tons of drugs are coming across the border. 448 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 2: It's all coming out through. 449 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: And it's all coming up through Mexico. That was him 450 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: before and now here he is now. Also is the 451 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: hunker down, shut the gates, build walls, exit at this 452 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 1: moment is precisely the wrong answer. 453 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 2: Former presidents have said to him that they wish that 454 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 2: they had built a wall. 455 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: Do you recall President Obama ever saying that. Come on, So, no, 456 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 1: he doesn't know a single president that would ever say that. 457 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: Never mind, he had just recently said that, let's hear 458 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: from Schumer. Here he has to say. Then, let's hear 459 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: what he has to say. 460 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: Then, construction of one hundred and thirty mile border fence 461 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:43,919 Speaker 2: create a significant barrier to illegal immigration on our southern 462 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 2: land border all along. 463 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: Okay, so he was saying we need to build a 464 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 1: six hundred thirty mile fence. Biden said seven hundred along 465 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: our southern land border to prevent illegal immigration. Here what 466 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: he has to say again, then. 467 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 2: Among the presidents saying, well, I'll do data and dreamers 468 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 2: in return for the wall. 469 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,320 Speaker 1: He's got it, President Trump. Okay, So we were going 470 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: to give him the wall in exchange for having this, 471 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 1: and now that's here's what he has to say. 472 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: Now, if you want to open the government, you must 473 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: abandon the wall. 474 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: And there they have them holding him hostage, saying Trump, 475 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: if you want to open up the government. This is 476 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 1: at a time when the debt ciliing debate was going down. 477 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:21,959 Speaker 1: If you want to open the government, then you have 478 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 1: to abandon the wall. The flip flop. Obama, Hillary, Biden, 479 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: Schumer all were pro wall and now they're all against it. 480 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: What happened? What happened? Could it be that it's because 481 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 1: Trump wanted a wall that they just automatically can't like 482 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 1: the wall? Now we know that there's massive problems caused 483 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: from this, and the exact problems we're suffering are the 484 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,960 Speaker 1: exact problems they warned. What happen? What did Biden say? 485 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: We're having a massive inflow of drugs across our southern border. Yes, 486 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: that's exactly what we're happening. That's exactly what we're hap. 487 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 1: We have states in the north, New York, Michigan, San 488 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:09,120 Speaker 1: Francisco trying to we need more people across the border. 489 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: But now that they're getting up to New York or 490 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: getting up to Colorado, they don't want it anymore. Mayor 491 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 1: Eric Adams, I played a clip from him a while 492 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 1: ago here saying we're being overrun. There's no hope, there's 493 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: nothing we can do. Well, certainly you could close the border. 494 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: Eric Adams, Mayor Eric Adams of New York City actually 495 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: went down to Latin America to try to discourage migrants 496 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: from coming to New York City. The Democratic New York 497 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 1: Governor Kathy Hochel on Sunday called on Congress to limit 498 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: who crosses the border, saying it's too open right now. 499 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: She said, quote, people coming from all over the world 500 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: are finding their way through simply saying they need asylum, 501 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: and the majority of them seem to be ended up 502 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: in the streets of New York. And that's the real problem. 503 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: One hundred and twenty five thousand newly arrivedividuals, and we 504 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: are being over taxed. In Denver, Colorado, another blue state, Denver, 505 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: we recently asked Texas border officials to hand out flyers 506 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: discouraging migrants from seeking shelter in the sanctuary city, citing 507 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 1: exhausted resources because twenty one thousand migrants have relocated to Denver. Now, 508 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: we also saw reports this week border patrol agents apprehended 509 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,919 Speaker 1: more than twenty four thousand migrants. This is what they apprehended, 510 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: not what they got now that got through. They apprehended 511 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 1: twenty four thousand migrants from the People's Republic of China. 512 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: These are not these are not Venezuelan Argentina, and like 513 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: you've been led to believe. No, this is people from 514 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: the Middle East, people from Africa, and yes, twenty four 515 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 1: thousand people from the People's Republic of China, more than 516 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: eleven thousand just since June alone. This is a big 517 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: deal and the story is only heating up. If you're 518 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: just tune in, you're listening to the Mark ma Show. 519 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: We're talking about the decentralized revolution. We're talking about how 520 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: immigration is changing the landscape of the world. There is 521 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: a lot more to the story that I want to 522 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: cover when I come back after a very quick break. 523 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: You want to hear about the flip flop and the 524 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: hidden internal things that are being done. I'm going to 525 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 1: cover that when I come back in a minute more. 526 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: I'll be back with more. Don't go away, I'll be 527 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: right back, all right, Welcome back. If you're just tune in, 528 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 1: you're listening to the Mark Maus Show. We're running through 529 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: some of the latest breaking news headlines this week, so 530 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: you can understand the world in greater context as we 531 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: look at it through the lens of politics, finance, and technology. 532 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: Before the break, I was talking about the immigration problem. 533 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 1: It's happening all over the world. We've covered it extensively, 534 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: what's happened in Italy, what's happening through Europe, and we've 535 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,040 Speaker 1: talked about what's happening in the United States. And that's 536 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: what we're talking about right now. And I was showing 537 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: you the flip flop. How Obama, Biden, Hillary Schumer, we're 538 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: all very very very pro border walls, harsh on immigration. 539 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: There's other clips I could have pulled. There was one 540 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: that I was listening to that was Biden basically as 541 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: a senator grilling the Attorney General, saying, you're not doing 542 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: your job. It's your job to uphold the law. This 543 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: is illegal immigration. Anyway, there's this flip flop. But as 544 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 1: I reported last week, because of the increase demand from 545 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: blue states such as New York and Colorado begging for 546 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: the federal government's help, we got some movement. And so 547 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: what happened what we saw the Department of Homeland Security 548 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: secretary in may Orcus went on and said that now 549 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 1: the Department Home Security will in fact continue building the wall, 550 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: and not only will they continue to building the wall, 551 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: they are going to do it in the fastest way possible, 552 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: in fact, moving past completely ignoring I believe twenty six 553 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: federal laws and regulations to get it done. Forget the 554 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: red tape, forget the bureaucracy. We need it now, and 555 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: we're going to go do it right now. We talked 556 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: about that. He said, quote, there's presently an acute and 557 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the 558 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: vicinity of the border of the United States in order 559 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: to prevent unlawful entries into the United States in the 560 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: project areas. That's from the DHS secretary. All right now, 561 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: he said that it's urgent, we have to waive regulations, 562 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 1: we have to get this through. It look like they 563 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: had woken up. They knew what was going on. Now. 564 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: I do want to state and I covered this last week, 565 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: but I'm going to recite it again for you. Here. 566 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: There was a bill going through that would either one 567 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 1: force the government to continue to build the federal government 568 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: to continue building the wall, or two, if they wouldn't 569 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: give the materials that were purchased and weren't being used, 570 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: give them to Texas so Texas could finish the wall. Look, 571 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: either use the materials you have to build a wall, 572 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: or give them to Texas so we can finish building 573 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: the wall. Okay, now this bill was going through, it 574 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:37,040 Speaker 1: was going to be passed. President Biden decided that he 575 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: was going to be either way, the wall was going 576 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: to get built. So I have a better idea, says 577 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,479 Speaker 1: President Biden. They probably didn't have the idea, but somebody 578 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 1: told them. Let's sell off the wall secretly for pennies 579 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,959 Speaker 1: on the dollars. We can just get rid of it 580 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: really really quick. We don't want to move it even 581 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: at market value. Let's move it for pennies on the dog. 582 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: So we can get rid of it really quick before 583 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: this law goes into effect and we have to give 584 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: to Texas. Texas should have bought it from there. Now. 585 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 1: I know, obviously there's no such thing as law, a 586 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: rule of law, and the government anymore when it comes 587 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: to the Biden crime family, I guess. But typically in 588 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: normal law and like business and contract dealings and things 589 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: like that, if I think I'm about to get sued 590 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: or have some sort of a judgment or penalty, or 591 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: if I think the IRS has come after me, if 592 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: there's something pending on me that could impair my assets, 593 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: and I preemptively move those assets so they can't get them. 594 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: That's illegal. If I know someone's going to sue me 595 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: and I move all my assets into some offshore trust, 596 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: that's illegal. If I know the IRS is going to 597 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: come after me and levy my assets and I move them, 598 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 1: that's illegal. But that seems sort of like what Biden 599 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: just did, knowing that this bill was going to go through, 600 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 1: knowing that he would either be forced to finish it 601 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 1: or have to give those assets up to Texas, he 602 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: sold them off. Those aren't his assets, Those are you 603 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 1: and I's assets. Those were paid for with our tax 604 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: payer dollars. Now what happened is after that, as I 605 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: said last week, Mayorcis, the head of the DHS, came 606 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: out and said, Okay, fine, we're gonna do it. We're 607 00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: gonna get this done. And then I reported on that. 608 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: Then right after that happened, Mayorci's backtracks. Now he says, 609 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: wait a minute, Wait a minute, Wait a minute, I 610 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 1: didn't actually say that. He said, I want to address 611 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: today's reporting related to a border wall and be absolutely clear. 612 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: Quote he said in a statement. Quote there is no 613 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: new administration policy with respect to border walls. From day one, 614 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: this administration is made clear that a border wall is 615 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 1: not the answer. End quote. What you have to do 616 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: is you have to do active listening and you have 617 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: to read between the lines here. What did he actually say? 618 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: He said, he said, there is no new policy. From 619 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,960 Speaker 1: day one, this administration has made it clear that a 620 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: border wall is not the answer. So what he's saying, maybe, well, 621 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: let me finish telling you this, let's talk about the actions. 622 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: We'll come back. He says, quote that remains our position, 623 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: and our position has never waivered. End quote. He added, 624 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: quote the language in the Federals registered notice is being 625 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: taken out of context. It does not signify any change 626 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: in policy whatsoever. End quote. So he came out and backtracked. 627 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: Hang on, hang on, Hi, you guys misunderstood me. We 628 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 1: haven't changed our policy. We still think the border wall 629 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,959 Speaker 1: is not the answer. You've taken it out of context. Huh. 630 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: That's kind of weird because you just said it was 631 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: urgent and necessary. The Blue States are pressuring you, and 632 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,239 Speaker 1: you made the statement, and now you're saying we took 633 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: it out of context. Well, I guess that's what we did. 634 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: He said, we did. But yet after he said that 635 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: Homeland Security actually resumes building the wall in Texas, despite 636 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: biden opposition, The federal government is resuming border wall construction 637 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: in South Texas amid another surge of border crossings, even 638 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: as President Joe Biden reasserts his opposition to the project. 639 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: In fact, Biden told reporters that quote, nothing had changed 640 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: in his opposition to building the wall. He said his 641 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: administration's hands were tied after Congress in twenty nineteen pass 642 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: legislation fund the wall construction in Star County. The money 643 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: was appropriated for the border wall. I tried to get 644 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: them to reappropriate to redirect that money, but they didn't. 645 00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: Biden said they wouldn't. In the meantime, there's nothing under 646 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,959 Speaker 1: the law that can be done. So listen, what's happening here, Biden. 647 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,120 Speaker 1: The Biden administration wants the wall to get built to 648 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: help the Blue States, but he wants to pretend like 649 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: he doesn't want the wall to be built. So listen back. 650 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: Let's go back to what New York has said from 651 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: day one. This administration has made it clear that a 652 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: border wall is not the answer. He didn't say from 653 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 1: day one, the administration said they wouldn't build the wall. 654 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: He says it's not the answer. So hey, we still 655 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: believe it's not the answer. Our position hasn't changed. The 656 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 1: border wall is not the answer, but if you want it, 657 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: we'll go ahead and build it. You see the language 658 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: that he used there. He didn't say we're not going 659 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,560 Speaker 1: to build it. He said, we just think it's not 660 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: the answer. He said that remains our position. Our position 661 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 1: has never wavered. We've never wait. Sure, we'll build the wall, 662 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: but our position is still it's not going to work. 663 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: You know, that's what he's saying. He said that the 664 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: language is being taken out of contexts he does not 665 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: signify any change in the policy, so he says it's 666 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 1: taken out of context. We didn't say that we think 667 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: the wall is the answer. Now you taking it out 668 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: of context. We just said we're going to build it. 669 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: Never did he deny they were going to build it, 670 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: and then even President Biden he reasserts his opposition to 671 00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: the project. But then he told the records it's out 672 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 1: of our hands. We can't do anything about it. Well, 673 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: you could. You sold off all the wall parts for 674 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:32,919 Speaker 1: pennies on the dollar. You certainly could do. You see 675 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: what's happening here what we call gas lighting. They're lying 676 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 1: to you, right in your face. They're trying to use 677 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 1: some fancy speech so you don't pick up what's going on. 678 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: In the meantime, they're doing whatever they want. If it 679 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: wasn't for their buddies in the Blue States in New 680 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 1: York getting hit super hard on this bill, if it 681 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,720 Speaker 1: wasn't for the Blue states of Denver, Colorado, they probably 682 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: would be doing anything. As long as it's going to 683 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: the Southern States, specifically Texas. They're trying to turn Texas blue. 684 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,280 Speaker 1: If it's going to Texas, if they're shipping them to Florida, 685 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 1: if it's going to Arizona, great, it's perfect. That's exactly 686 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 1: what we want. Once they get up to Colorado, once 687 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: they get up to New York, now we got a 688 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: problem on our hands. Now the Blue states are no 689 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:23,839 Speaker 1: longer supporting the president in the administration. So we're going 690 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 1: to pretend. Well, first we're going to try to get 691 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 1: rid of the stuff. But if you're going to force 692 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: our hands, as Biden said, we have the money. The 693 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 1: money is that was already appropriated. There's nothing I can do. 694 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: It's out of our hands. Well, I guess we have 695 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: to let you do it. In addition to that, what 696 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: we can see is that on the heels of determining 697 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: that he has the immediate need to finish the wall. 698 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: The White House nine's last night that deportation flights of 699 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: illegal Venezuela migrants would resume immediately. They're saying, now may 700 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: Orchis made a determination it's safe to return to Venezuela 701 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: nationals who arrived in the United States subsequent to July 702 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: thirty first and do not have a legit basis to 703 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: remain here. So now the United States government is going 704 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 1: to start buying them airplane flights and send them home. 705 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: Your tax dollars, invite him here and then ship them home. 706 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,720 Speaker 1: It's pretty nice. Anybody want a free trip to South America, 707 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: Government's going to pay for it. If you're just tune in, 708 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: you're listening to the Mark mass Show.
