Senate Finance 8 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 2: Committee has advanced RFK Junior's nomination. Looking pretty good for 9 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: HHS Secretary Tolsei Gabbard, also looking good cash, but tell 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 2: looking good. Trump's team coming together beautifully, and Elon is 11 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 2: going full Twitter on the Feds. And by that I 12 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: mean remember when he cut eighty percent of Twitter's staff 13 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 2: and everyone said. 14 00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: Who is going to turn on the computers? 15 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 2: And now Twitter is more important and functions better than 16 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: it ever had before. Elon is taking that same mindset 17 00:00:55,440 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 2: at least and going after the federal government. There's an 18 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: incredible piece today in the New York Times. It's supposed 19 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: to be a hit piece, I think on Elon and 20 00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: just how off the rails he and his team of 21 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 2: twenty somethings, one of them is nineteen years old. Elon 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: has essentially grabbed a bunch of one forty iq twenty 23 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: somethings to sleep on cots in the Office of Personnel 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 2: Management in DC, to work in offices at the old 25 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 2: Executive Office building, all with Trump's stamp of approval and 26 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 2: blessing to just go get it done, do the mission. 27 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: They've gotten access to the Treasury Department's payment system, They've 28 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: gotten access inside of OPM, which is the HR for 29 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: all of federal government employees. They have shut down the 30 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 2: US Aid Office in DC, and all of. 31 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: This is going on. 32 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 2: You know what Elon says Clay about the amount out 33 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 2: of fraud that he thinks is happening with the federal 34 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: government every year, meaning the amount of money that the 35 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: federal government is paying that it should not pay. That 36 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 2: is fraud he's estimating. And remember he has super user 37 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 2: access everybody, you know, he's he can see it. He thinks, Clay, 38 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 2: we are at seven hundred billion dollars of fraud. Now, 39 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 2: for those of us who've been screaming and pounding the 40 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: table for a long time now, certainly over a decade. 41 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: You know, the the estimate for Medicare fraud alone is 42 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: sixty to eighty billion dollars. 43 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: So once you. 44 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: Start to piece and patch all these things together, it 45 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 2: doesn't seem like it's crazy at all to have that number. 46 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: Although that number is jaw dropping, right, it seems like 47 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 2: this is very possible. Clay Elon has been unleashed. We'll 48 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 2: get to the AOC thing at a second, but I 49 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 2: think people seeing these numbers, it's it's pretty staggering, and 50 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 2: it's also really encouraging that some one's finally doing something 51 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: about this. Well that's the thing, right, that we're finally 52 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: getting to it. Let me just kind of put this 53 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: context out there for you. Democrats are in a position 54 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 2: now where they are arguing we need remember this was 55 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 2: their huge argument a couple of years ago, we need 56 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 2: eighty seven thousand new IRS agents to catch all the 57 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: tax cheats out there. 58 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: You me, all of you out there listening. 59 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: The half of Americans remember, it's only half the half 60 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: of Americans that actually pay federal income tax This is 61 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: a staggering stat that I should be talked about more. 62 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: Only half of Americans pay federal income taxes. That's something 63 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: other than payroll taxes. This is you finish all of 64 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 2: your work for the year, and you are paying something 65 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 2: other than payroll taxes. Only half. Okay, it's an incredibly 66 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: insane number. They want eighty seven thousand new agents to 67 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: go after the half of people that that are actually 68 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: paying tax in this country federal income tax. And if 69 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: you opposed it at all, you are an indefensible cheat. 70 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 2: But we opposed it on this show because we pointed 71 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 2: out everybody thinks, oh, they're only going to go after 72 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: the billionaires. They're already doing that. I'm being audited every year. 73 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: They're already doing that. Donald Trump way richer than me. 74 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: He's getting audited every year. They're already coming after people 75 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: who pay substantial amounts of tax, the vast majority, and 76 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 2: this has been proven out. When they expand IRS enforcement, 77 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 2: they're going to come to a large extent for people 78 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 2: that are not super wealthy but that pay taxes. Okay, 79 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: you run a small business, they're going to be pouring 80 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 2: over your books, Okay, they want to do that, But 81 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 2: they simultaneously consider it an outrage that Elon would be 82 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 2: trying to figure out how much of the government taxpayer 83 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: dollars you're in my money that they are spending is 84 00:04:56,880 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: wasted and fraudulent. So they don't I don't trust the 85 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 2: individual taxpayer to be honest, but they do trust the 86 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: federal government to be flawless. I mean, it is an 87 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: untenable position for anybody out there thinking, if I had 88 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: to ask you, I bet most of you. If I said, 89 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: who do you trust more an average American or the 90 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: federal government? Who would you rather have helping you in 91 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: the wake of an immediate storm, your neighbor or relying 92 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: on FEMA to show up. Most of you, I think, 93 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 2: would say, yeah, I ask my neighbor for help. Most 94 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: of you trust the individual innate goodness of the average 95 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 2: American much more than you do the federal government. Democrats 96 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: buck are now in the position think about how untenable 97 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 2: this is to be arguing, how in the world can 98 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 2: we be holding our taxpayer dollars accountable and searching for 99 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 2: fraud on the money that we're actually spending. But simultaneously 100 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 2: that's unacceptable, but we need to be looking for every 101 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 2: American's fraud. It's it's like an It's an absolutely indefensible position. Well, 102 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 2: they've also put themselves in a place where the Democrats 103 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 2: are so upset about USAID. The United States Agency for 104 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: International Development. Marco Rubio has been phenomenal on this. By 105 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 2: the way, he shall now be known as Big Marco 106 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: no longer Little Marco. People are saying he is the 107 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 2: some people are saying most Improved Award. Now Marc Rubio 108 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 2: is great, a great senator from my state in Florida, 109 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 2: doing a fantastic job already as Secretary of State. And 110 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: he explained this that that really there's this sense that 111 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: USAID Clay operates outside the government chain of command, even 112 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 2: more so than the State Department, which I might add 113 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 2: also thinks in many ways that operates outside the presidential 114 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: chain of command, and they do whatever they want the 115 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 2: career employees. And now you've got these Beltway democrats, particularly 116 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 2: like the DC media blob. 117 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 3: It's like, what do you mean You're cutting the budget 118 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: for transgender puppet shows in Mongolia. It's like, why are 119 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 3: we funding transgender puppet shows in Mongolia? 120 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: Like what is this? Whose idea is this? 121 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 2: This is some global charity run by leftist that's using 122 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: your tax. It's one thing if they were to write 123 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: their own checks for this, you know, if they want 124 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: to do their own you know, comic book about climate 125 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: change in Bolivia, they can write checks out of their 126 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 2: own bank account. But they're doing it out of your 127 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 2: bank account, and you don't even know about it, and 128 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: they don't think they need to tell anybody about it, 129 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: and so Clay, the more that they get angry about this, 130 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: the more people say, really, we're supposed to fund this 131 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 2: and that. Because they haven't said they're going to cut 132 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: everything the USA Idea is doing. They're saying it's going 133 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: to go under the State Department under Mark Rubio, and 134 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: what is in US interest will be done, but what 135 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 2: is in the interests of the bureaucrat commies is not 136 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: going to be done. Also, a couple of things that 137 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 2: I think are important here as we start to talk budget. 138 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: For first of all, you just said, let's play Caroline Levitt, 139 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 2: who was scheduled to be on the program with US tomorrow, 140 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: by the way, she had to bump in the wake 141 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: of the awful tragedy with the plane in DC last 142 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: week's scheduled to be on with US tomorrow. Here she 143 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: is sharing some of what you just referenced, USAID's DEI 144 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: funding priorities cut five. Listen to what your taxpayer dollars 145 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: have been going. 146 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 4: To through USAID over the past several years. These are 147 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 4: some of the insane priorities that that organization has been 148 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 4: spending money on one point five million dollars to advance 149 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 4: Dei in Serbia's workplaces, seventy thousand for a production of 150 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 4: a Dei musical in Ireland, forty seven thousand for a 151 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 4: transgender opera in Colombia, thirty two thousand for a transgender 152 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 4: comic book in Peru. I don't know about you, but 153 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 4: as an American taxpayer, I don't want my dollars going 154 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 4: towards this crap, and I know the American people don't either. 155 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 4: And that's exactly what Elon Musk has been tasked by 156 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 4: President Trump to do to get the fraud, waste, and 157 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 4: abuse out of our federal government. 158 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 2: Thinking about it, I mean, let's fight on this hill 159 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 2: all day. 160 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: Libs bring it. 161 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 2: Democrats explain why tax dollars at a time where people 162 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: are also feeling prices rise for years, thank you, Biden, 163 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 2: and have their own financial challenges and are already beset 164 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: by the expense of ten plus million illegals who have 165 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 2: piled into the country in just the last four years. 166 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 2: We're doing transgender operas in Colombia now, and the point here, 167 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 2: Clay is okay. They might say, well, it's not that 168 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 2: much money. Look how big the budget is. Well, then 169 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: why are we doing this? But why are we doing. 170 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: It at all? Well? 171 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 2: Why does this come from the United States checkbook? Who's 172 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 2: spending their time? Remember, there's someone who's spending their time 173 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: on this, there's someone administering this program. There are meetings 174 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 2: that are being held on this. The whole thing is 175 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: a scam totally. And when I think you go to 176 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 2: any of you who have ever had to make a 177 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 2: budget in your own life, sometimes you don't have enough money, 178 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 2: and that stinks. 179 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,439 Speaker 1: I've been there. Most of you out there have been 180 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: there at some point. 181 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 2: You haven't been able to get your head above water 182 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: because you simply don't make enough money. That's not the 183 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: US government's problem. It's not a revenue problem. It's a 184 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: spending problem. In fact, Buck And this is a stat 185 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 2: that I think everybody should be hammering home. Do you 186 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 2: know our budget would be balanced if we merely returned 187 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 2: to what the federal government was spending in twenty nineteen. 188 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: That's a stat that I think a lot of you 189 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 2: out there, the growth in spending that has occurred, that 190 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 2: they used COVID as an excuse to. 191 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: Just pour on money. 192 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 2: If we just went back to the budget that Trump 193 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: had in twenty nineteen. It's a pretty big freaking budget. 194 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: We would have a balanced budget right now. The revenue 195 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 2: is not the issue, Clay. The two most important things 196 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 2: from a governance perspective right now in this country are 197 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: the illegal alien crisis and our borders, and the spending 198 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 2: and the growth of government and the madness out of 199 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 2: the swamp in DC right and these two issues. Trump 200 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 2: has gone just all in with his team and having 201 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 2: Elon look at this and deal with this. I mean, 202 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 2: the fact that people at USAID would quote this yesterday 203 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: are saying it is the apocalypse for USAID. 204 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: This is stuff that. 205 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: Sounds like some dream from like a conservative think tank 206 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,680 Speaker 2: twenty years ago. I mean, nobody has been thinking this 207 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: has been possible until Trump came along. And when you 208 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: see the scope of the fraud and the abuse. And 209 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: to Clay's point also about the government is you know, 210 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 2: I think I received one year from the IRS. I 211 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: think they wanted like another one hundred bucks or something 212 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 2: because I had some ten ninety nine that. 213 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 1: I paid seven figures. 214 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 2: Thankfully, I'm very happy for my success in taxes for 215 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 2: the last seven or eight years. Okay, just saying that 216 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 2: not to brag, but the government told me I owed 217 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 2: thirty nine dollars in seventy five cents. But this is 218 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 2: this is about the laws, the same laws and the 219 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 2: same system that bind you and me and all of 220 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 2: you listening to this for every penny, every penny of 221 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: your income, and the opaque, an absurd and rigged tax 222 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 2: code that is, you know, you have this extreme obligation 223 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 2: to the state, which, by the way, should also be 224 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 2: chopped down considerably. I think there's a whole conversation here 225 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 2: about a flat tax, a fair tax, IRS going down 226 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 2: to much much lower levels. And on the other hand, 227 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,319 Speaker 2: the government gets to spend and we get sailors that 228 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 2: right in don't say drunken sailors. 229 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: I can hold my liquor, but you know. 230 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: Like the proverbial drunken sailor, I mean just running around 231 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 2: spending money like crazy. And we have thirty six trillion 232 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: dollars of debt and the fact that Elon and of 233 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 2: course with Trump's you know, he's kind of like the 234 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 2: hand from. 235 00:12:54,360 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 5: A game of thrones, right with Trump's approval, and Trump 236 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 5: has made that very clear, is going around and looking 237 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 5: at this and saying that he thinks he can remove 238 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 5: hundreds of billions of dollars of just pure waste at 239 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,359 Speaker 5: a federal expenditure. 240 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: I mean, this is more than most countries' GDP. We're 241 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 2: talking about. This is a vast sum of money that 242 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: the government is lighting on fire. And the DC blob 243 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: and the Democrats are all against this. Good, let's see 244 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: them be against a clay. I want more of them 245 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:31,479 Speaker 2: explaining why we need the transgender muppet shows in Cambodia 246 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 2: or whatever totally and the argument of well it's a 247 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 2: small part of the budget. Democrat, Republican, Independent, who was 248 00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 2: actually in favor of this? Who if you gave them 249 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: the choice, Hey, do you want your tax dollars to 250 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 2: go to transgender muppet shows in Cambodia? How many of 251 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 2: you are like, I'm in check mark, take my money 252 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: right now, go. This is how I want my money. 253 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 2: By the way, I wish, I wish I got to 254 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: say somehow how my tax dollars could be allocated. First 255 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 2: of all, I'd like to have way more of him back, 256 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 2: like most of you. Second, this to me feels like 257 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 2: the closest to a public advocate that we've ever had. 258 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of laziness in government. And 259 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 2: let's be honest, Buck, the talent that Elon Musk has 260 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 2: and the tenaciousness is almost without parallel in modern American history. 261 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: He's gotten a lot of young dudes like him that 262 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 2: are just pouring over the entire federal budget line by 263 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: line to figure out what we're actually spending. Look, I 264 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: think Trump was like CNN and the media BLOB's worst nightmare. 265 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: Elon is actually the bureaucracy. I think the DC swamp's 266 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 2: worst nightmare. Yes, you know, this really goes to his 267 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: skill set and credit to him, but also credit to 268 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 2: Trump for seeing this. This is what we wanted all along, 269 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 2: Trump picking the best people to do the critical things, 270 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 2: and everything we have seen going into week three here 271 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 2: of this term is he's doing exactly that. So it's 272 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 2: it's an amazing thing. But Clay AOC wants to weigh in, 273 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: so making it we're gonna, We're gonna come back to this. 274 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: AOC has some thoughts on how smart. 275 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: Elon Musk is. 276 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 2: You are gonna want to hear this, and I think 277 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: it explains a lot of where the opposition stands right now. 278 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: Hillsdale College has an open challenge for us all how 279 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: much we would learn from taking one of their three 280 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 2: dozen online video courses.

Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or 301 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 6: wherever you get your podcasts. 302 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: We got so much winning going on that sometimes we 303 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: don't even hit the victory lap that we should. Yesterday, 304 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: all of the talk was in the morning, Oh my goodness, 305 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: Trump is going to enact tariffs on Canada and Mexico. 306 00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: The entire global economy is going to collapse. He has 307 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 2: no idea what he's doing. Mexico commit it's ten thousand 308 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 2: troops to the border. Canada commits ten thousand troops to 309 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 2: the border. Both put billions of dollars more into the 310 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 2: idea that they are going to restrict ingress and into 311 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 2: the United States, and boom. This has turned into a 312 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 2: non story already. What I do think is significant is 313 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 2: if you add on Columbia, and you add on with 314 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 2: what happened when they were refusing to take the refugees, 315 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 2: and you add on Panama, who appears to have been 316 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 2: the knee Venezuela releasing six American hostages, which barely got 317 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 2: talked about, but was a significant accomplishment by Richard Grennell. 318 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 2: The the acronyn individual down Grenell who went down there 319 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 2: and made a and made a deal to get them back. 320 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 2: Venezuela has agreed to take different illegals. I saw where, Yeah, 321 00:17:58,480 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 2: I was El Salvador. 322 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 1: You see guitars. Yeah. 323 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 2: Let me tell you, I mean meeting Americans who commit crimes. 324 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 2: Let me tell you, I do not think you want 325 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 2: to get sent to Bukeal's supermax prison in El Salvador. 326 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: That could really. 327 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 2: Probably not a good place to have to spend some time. 328 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: Uh And basically El Salvador has almost no crime. Now, 329 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 2: I mean, many of these Latin American countries have turned 330 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 2: into real success stories when you look at basically just 331 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: embracing capitalism and allowing the market to flourish. So all 332 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 2: of these wins are getting stacked up. RFK Junior has 333 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 2: cleared committee. He is going to become HHS secretary. Also, 334 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 2: Tulci Gabbard has received significant commitments from Republicans. She is 335 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 2: going to get confirmed as well. Every single cabinet nominee 336 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 2: that Trump put forward that reached the hearing is going 337 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 2: to be confirmed, as should be the case. The only 338 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:06,720 Speaker 2: one that Trump announced that Withdrew Matt Gates that is otherwise, 339 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: Trump and his cabinet one point zero in this second 340 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 2: administration is going to take office with no rejections. 341 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: Trump just keeps stacking wins. Now a couple of things. 342 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 2: Also, Trump tomorrow, Buck and the Real Daily Layer just 343 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 2: reported it, so I can say it. I know it 344 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 2: to be true. As well, is going to sign an 345 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:37,120 Speaker 2: executive order that is going end men competing in women's sports. 346 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 2: There's going to be a big press conference associated with 347 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: that EO. Our friend Riley Gains, who works alongside of 348 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 2: me at OutKick, is going to be at that press availability. 349 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 2: Caroline Levitt is going to join us tomorrow, as I 350 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: said earlier White House Press Secretary to talk about that. 351 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: I actually when she comes on, I think Buck will 352 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 2: be on the way to New Orleans, where I will 353 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 2: be doing our show Thursday and Friday from the super Bowl, 354 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,760 Speaker 2: which shouldn't stink Chiefs and Eagles down there. That Trump 355 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 2: has announced that he will be attending as well. So 356 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: President of the United States will be at the super 357 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 2: Bowl on Sunday. I suspect Buck and I haven't seen 358 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 2: the official release. One reason he wants to do this is, 359 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 2: as we talked about in the first hour, one month ago, 360 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 2: there was a terror attack in New Orleans. Trump was 361 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 2: not the president at the time of that terror attack, 362 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 2: but I would expect that he will want to pay 363 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: respects to the fourteen individuals who lost his life there, 364 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 2: lost their life there, and also be able to speak 365 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 2: out against the awful tearror attack that happened there as well. 366 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 2: As guy's a big sports fan. I think he wants 367 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 2: to go to the super Bowl and one hundred million 368 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 2: plus people will be watching. 369 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna be on Fox. Should be fun. You know, 370 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: get a little tired of all this, Like. 371 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 2: What does cloy think about the super Bowl? So I'm 372 00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 2: going to put you on the hot seat for a 373 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 2: second here. Who do you really think Trump is rooting 374 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,359 Speaker 2: for Kansas City Chiefs. He's a Kansas City guy. He 375 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 2: likes he's for Kansas City. He was a Patriots guy before. 376 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 2: I think he knew that Tom Brady was a voter 377 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 2: and supporter. I mean, a lot of this stuff is 378 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 2: behind closed doors. Patrick Mahomes and his wife voted for 379 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. I think that Patrick Mahomes is a big 380 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 2: Trump guy. Now, to be fair, Travis Kelcey not so 381 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 2: sure that he's a big Trump guy. Taylor Swift certainly 382 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 2: not a big Trump guy. So look, I mean every team, 383 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: I think the reality is, has guys that vote Trump 384 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 2: and some guys that didn't vote Trump. I mean, just 385 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 2: like most businesses in America do, right. I mean, we're 386 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: a fifty to fifty country to a large extent, but 387 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: much of the Chief's ownership big Trump supporters. I would say, 388 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 2: in general state of Missouri, pretty good Trump supporting area. 389 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 2: And I know, look, there are a lot of Eagle 390 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 2: fans out there, and wait a minute, I'm a big 391 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 2: Trump supporter. 392 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: I get it. 393 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 2: But I think Trump is uh is Patrick Mahomes guy, 394 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: and I think that he. 395 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,360 Speaker 1: Will be rooting for the Chiefs. I do not think 396 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: he will say it. 397 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 2: In fact, I think smart politician that he is, Philadelphia 398 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 2: is kind of a big battleground. And even though his 399 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 2: political career is over, if you had to pick a 400 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 2: team to root for politically, Pennsylvania, whoever votes for in 401 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight is going to probably decide the presidency again. 402 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: So I think as a smart he's not running. He's 403 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 2: not running again though, right, so he doesn't really Maybe 404 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 2: he'll just come out. Maybe he'll just come out and 405 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 2: say it. I think the fig the Eagles owner is 406 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: actually a big lib Jeffrey Lourie and uh, and so 407 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: Trump certainly knows that, and so the ownership of the 408 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 2: of the Chiefs is more aligned with him politically. Patrick 409 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 2: Mahomes is a Trump supporter. His wife is I think 410 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 2: a big Trump supporter, and and so I think that 411 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 2: that Trump will be rooting for the Chiefs. I don't 412 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 2: know that it will say it publicly, but that's how 413 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,159 Speaker 2: I would break it down. By the way, I think 414 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: the Chiefs are going to win several days out. Usually 415 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: people I don't know, you don't do I don't know 416 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,880 Speaker 2: how much attention you paid the sports media. You're supposed 417 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 2: to keep your prediction on the Super Bowl, like super 418 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 2: close to the chest because if you come out and 419 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 2: say it on Monday, you got a full week to 420 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 2: talk about the game. So then you're like, well, what's 421 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: the suspense? So you have to kind of talk up 422 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 2: both sides. Well, on the one hand, you know, I like, 423 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 2: what's your boy sequon? Saquon Barkley has been able to 424 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: accomplish in the running game, and so you talk about 425 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 2: the Eagles ability to control that side of the ball, 426 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 2: and in the next day, this is Sports Stark Radio. 427 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 2: Next day you come back and you're like, but boy, 428 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 2: you know Patrick Malmes is pursuing Tom Bradman, and I 429 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 2: can give you the whole week of how the stories go. 430 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 2: And then on Friday you're like, but my pick is 431 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 2: I'm telling you now, I think the Chiefs win. I've 432 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: been following Sequan's career for weeks and I will just 433 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 2: tell you never bet against Saquan. 434 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: That's what I know. 435 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 2: Sequan has has still not or your boy Pickle unfortunately 436 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 2: did not make a Pickles let me down. We don't 437 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: talk about mister Pickles got into a fight in the 438 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 2: end zone after kind of a I would say, dastardly 439 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: into the season for the good word for the Pittsburgh Steelers. 440 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: Speaking of dastardly, I would argue that, so that's Super Bowl. 441 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: I'll be down there Thursday, Friday tomorrow. We'll have Caroline 442 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 2: Levin on, but I will probably miss that last hour. 443 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 2: But another executive order that many of you are going 444 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 2: to say, how lujah when you see come down. I 445 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: can't believe that we've gotten to the point where the 446 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 2: President of the United States need to say, hey men, 447 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 2: pretending to be women shouldn't be able to compete in 448 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 2: women's sports. 449 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: All right. 450 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 2: This is one of the dumbest things that has been 451 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 2: allowed to air on CNN in some time. And I 452 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 2: say that because sometimes you can have opinions that I 453 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 2: disagree with, but you can at least make an argument. 454 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 2: That's how the First Amendment works, Like, hey, you have 455 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 2: this opinion, I have that opinion. 456 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: We can argue back and forth. 457 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 2: But when you are so factually an act curate that 458 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,400 Speaker 2: it boggles the mind that it would even be possible 459 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 2: for you to say it. And CNN, which claims they 460 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 2: care about the pursuit of truth and fact checking to 461 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 2: such an extent, says nothing at all. Here is Congresswoman 462 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: Jasmine Crockett. Where's she from? 463 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 1: Buck Well? 464 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 2: You know, you know the state? Young black woman, Texas, 465 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 2: Oh Texas. You blew it on this one, Jasmine Crockett, 466 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 2: young black woman. 467 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 1: You trade Luca, you elect this woman? What do you 468 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: do in Texas? 469 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 2: Here is Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett saying eighty percent of violent 470 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: crime is actually attributable to white supremacy. 471 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 7: Listen, this is very simple. We right now have a 472 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 7: white supremacist that is sitting in the White House. He 473 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 7: is backed up by other white supremacists. And if you 474 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 7: really want to know who the criminals are in this country, 475 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 7: you can google it. You don't have to trust me. 476 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 7: But the people that commit eighty percent of the most 477 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 7: violent times in this country are white supremacists. Yet for 478 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 7: whatever reason, they sit and they serve at the pleasure 479 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 7: of the president. They are the ones that were there 480 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 7: on January sixth tearing our democracy down physically, and now 481 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 7: we have them tearing us down right here from within. 482 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 7: Here is the problem, of course, Congressman. 483 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 2: Okay, so she calls the president a white supremacist. That's 484 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: an opinion. It's ridiculous. Was CNN about to say the 485 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: president denies being Yeah, do we have the continued cut there? 486 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know. I haven't heard of such that. 487 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: That's it. 488 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 2: They would never have done that before he won. Well, also, 489 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: do we have the continuation there? Maybe Greg can look 490 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 2: into it. I don't know where. 491 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: I know. 492 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 2: I said cut it off, but I think it was 493 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 2: cutting off there. But here's what I would ask. She said, 494 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 2: google it, which reminds me of when Don Lemon was like, 495 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 2: everyone knows when women are in their Prime Google. It 496 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 2: like Google, it is not actually an argument when the 497 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 2: Google data does not in any way support this, Buck, 498 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 2: I don't even know what data point she could be 499 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 2: attempting to claim that white supremacist commit eighty percent of 500 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 2: violent crime in America. It's one of the craziest arguments 501 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 2: I've ever seen on CNA. I think I think she 502 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 2: was conflating, like, you know, hate, hate, crimes and terrorism, 503 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: and you know, the left has all these ways of 504 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 2: trying to, you know, change the numbers up so that 505 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 2: it looks like the real that Buck, I don't know 506 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: how you could possibly get to eighty percent under any 507 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 2: crime metric attributable to white supremacy. 508 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: But you have to remember, what if Clay, you were really, 509 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: really dumb. 510 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 2: Then then you can confuse numbers and statistics and every. 511 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: To say it on CNN. 512 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: And by the way, I understand when some people say 513 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 2: things that you don't know a lot about, Like I 514 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 2: came on the show recently and I confessed you were 515 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 2: with me too. I didn't know what the capital of 516 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 2: Missouri was. I thought it was Columbia, Missouri. I once 517 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 2: knew it in fifth grade. You didn't know it either. Sorry, 518 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 2: Jefferson City. I hope we're number one there. But if 519 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 2: you're sitting and you're doing a show and somebody comes 520 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: on and they say something like I did, like Columbia, 521 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 2: Missouri is the capital, and you don't get fact checked, 522 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 2: I can see how someone could get that wrong. Anyone 523 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 2: with a functional brain knows. And this is just facts 524 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: over fifty percent of all violent crime, focusing on murder 525 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 2: because we know it's the most violent of all crimes 526 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:31,399 Speaker 2: committed by black men. So unless black men are also 527 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 2: white supremacists, which, to be fair, the La Times did 528 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 2: argue Larry Elder was the blackface of white supremacy. So 529 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: maybe Jasmine Crockett thinks the black men committing crimes are 530 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 2: white supremacists. The math doesn't in any way add up 531 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: to suggest that eighty percent of crime is white supremacy. 532 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: But this is such a big lie. 533 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 2: How does it not get fact checked in real time 534 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 2: on CNN? 535 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: Well, I think that was what was about to happen. 536 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: Well, I think she was spremacy supremacy, but I don't 537 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: know what else she said. But yes, no, it was. 538 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 2: It was one of the dumber things we have. The conclusion, 539 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 2: By the way, let's play the here's here's the rest 540 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: of it right now. 541 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 7: Of course, Congressman President Trump, of course is denied any 542 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 7: allegations of the way supremacist. 543 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: And that's why he what he is. 544 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 2: I know, I don't care what he's Oh, come on, that's, 545 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: by the way, how every that's how every argument with 546 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 2: your elementary school kid goes. Well, actually you need to eat, 547 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: I don't care what you say. You know, like this 548 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 2: is like just such a childlike response when you are 549 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 2: confronted with and by the way, buck, I think you're right. 550 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 2: The reason why that occurs is because they're afraid to 551 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 2: get sued like they fact checked. But that's her opinion. 552 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 2: She has the right to say it. I disagree with it. 553 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 2: What she doesn't have the right to say on CNN, 554 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 2: in my opinion, is something that is objectively easily provable 555 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 2: falsehood that she then says, google it. Well, I'll bet 556 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: a google it. You're one billion percent wrong. I mean, 557 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 2: the host on CNN should have corrected that. I think 558 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 2: probably didn't because she was afraid of being called racist. 559 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 2: If she pointed out that half of all murders are 560 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,239 Speaker 2: committed by black men, then people are like, oh, you 561 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: can't you can't share stats that make people racially uncomfortable. 562 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 2: That's one of the ways they police what we're allowed 563 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 2: to say. It's quite a deep dive into the criminal 564 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 2: justice analysis of Congresswoman Crockett. I have to say, I 565 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 2: don't know if anybody else's gonna come on Texas. She's pretty. 566 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 2: I'll give her that. You got to do better as 567 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: a congresswoman. She lies, and she's racist, and she is 568 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 2: really not an advocate in any kind of intelligent way 569 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 2: for the people of her district in Texas. Let's talk 570 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,239 Speaker 2: about Legacy Box here for a second.

You and I know this, Buck, 627 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 2: because for years we've been meeting with a lot of 628 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 2: CEOs and people who are very successful in business, and 629 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 2: they would say to us, what, we basically. 630 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: Agree with everything you guys say, yeah, of course, but they. 631 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 2: Would say, but in our companies, you know, it's kind 632 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 2: of hard for us to be able to say publicly 633 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 2: the kind of things that you're saying. They have. First 634 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: of all, I give you on a tremendous credit because 635 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 2: he was out on the front lines leading the charge 636 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,560 Speaker 2: in many corporations over this ridiculousness. 637 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: Right. 638 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 2: But once Trump won the popular vote, a lot of 639 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 2: CEOs in America and a lot of very powerful people 640 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 2: in public relations and other fields finally said, Okay, we 641 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 2: can pop our heads up and look around and finally 642 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 2: acknowledge how crazy this is. Mark Zuckerberg is sadly kind 643 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 2: of a perfect representation of this. The guy basically goes whichever. 644 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: Way the wind is blowing. 645 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 2: And you can say, politically, maybe that's not a bad move, 646 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 2: because all his real goal is is to advance and 647 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: grow his business. And so if Democrats are in office, 648 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 2: he's like Mandi's great, And as soon as Republicans win, 649 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 2: he's like, man, censorship sucks. We got to judge people 650 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,839 Speaker 2: based on the meritocracy. I do think that I hope 651 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 2: that he's growing a little bit more of a spine. 652 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 2: But there are a lot of Zuckerberg's out there in 653 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 2: your business. There are a lot of these guys who 654 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 2: just try to stay out of the line of fire, 655 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 2: don't really do much, don't really say much. They just 656 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: follow whatever the prevailing wind is. Hey, we got to 657 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 2: hire new people. Yeah, yeah, it's time to hire man. 658 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 2: We gotta really cut back. Yeah yeah, it's time to 659 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 2: cut back. The guy who always says whatever the popular 660 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 2: wisdom is inside of your business, that guy is suddenly like, oh, oh, 661 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 2: now's the time to move in the other direction. 662 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: And so. 663 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 2: The Florida Panthers down where you are, Buck, congratulations, Panthers 664 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 2: won the Stanley Cup. They went to visit Trump yesterday 665 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 2: in the White House, he brought him into the Oval office, 666 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 2: got the picture with him at the resolute desk. Buck, 667 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,720 Speaker 2: I didn't see one iota of criticism of an NHL 668 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 2: team visiting Trump in the white House. I'll tell you 669 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,879 Speaker 2: when Trump won in sixteen, every single team that won, 670 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 2: it was a huge store. Are they gonna go to 671 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 2: the White House? Are they gonna Are they gonna acknowledge 672 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,800 Speaker 2: Trump as president? Maybe that's still going to linger somewhat 673 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 2: in the NBA, maybe the WNBA. 674 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: Everywhere else it's over. 675 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 2: I mean, I know a Florida resident who's relatively new 676 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 2: to Florida who when he first saw the headline about 677 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 2: the Panthers visiting the White House was like, what college 678 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 2: team is that? And I gave him a very hard 679 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 2: time for that because it wasn't me. I love the 680 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 2: Florida Panthers all about it. So, yes, things have definitely 681 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 2: definitely changed, Clay on the corporate side of things, and 682 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,760 Speaker 2: now all of a sudden people can be more open 683 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: about what Well, actually, I just think it's very hard 684 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 2: to separate. You touched on this with Mark Zuckerberg. It's 685 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 2: very hard to separate who is just going because the 686 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 2: wind is so clearly blowing in this direction, and who 687 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 2: really has had a change of heart. Well, especially if 688 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 2: the change didn't happen n till post election. I think 689 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 2: that's definitely going to be the case with a lot 690 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 2: of these companies, all these sports operations and things that 691 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 2: are going on. 692 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:56,920 Speaker 1: So that's a real. 693 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 2: I mean, how much does it matter, I don't know, 694 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: but if we're trying to gauge how authentic and lasting 695 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 2: the cultural change really will be here, you know, it's 696 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 2: one thing if you're like, well, I guess we got 697 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,280 Speaker 2: to just sort of go with this now. It's another 698 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 2: thing if you say, you know, what Trump won, the 699 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 2: left is crazy. It's time to go back to some 700 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,759 Speaker 2: kind of American normal. And that's what we would all like, right, 701 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 2: especially in the sports realm, but across the board, corporate, cultural, everything, 702 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 2: no doubt. And by the way, this is why whatever 703 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:35,280 Speaker 2: Trump does. And look, I tweeted yesterday for a baseball analogy, 704 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 2: Trump's got like twenty home runs in April. For those 705 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 2: of you who are baseball fans, he's come out of 706 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 2: the gate. Who aren't baseball fans, he's come out of 707 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 2: the gate at an incredible pace. I don't know that 708 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 2: he can keep it up. But his term ends in 709 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 2: November of twenty eight. I know somebody was torn in 710 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 2: until January of twenty nine, but by twenty twenty six, 711 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 2: the page is going to turn from Trump. And as 712 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 2: great as his term may well be, we got to 713 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,879 Speaker 2: have sustained success because Buck, you and I have talked 714 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 2: about this, a lot of these execu quorders. If President 715 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris, God forbid, or JB. Pritzker or whoever that 716 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 2: person is, Gretchen Whitmer, They're gonna immediately come into the 717 00:39:17,520 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 2: Oval Office and revoke a lot of what Trump has done. 718 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 2: And so you have to have sustained victories. We need 719 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,320 Speaker 2: to win in twenty eight, We need to win in 720 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 2: thirty two. This is not a You don't go from hey, 721 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 2: I'm five hundred pounds to getting back in shape by 722 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 2: having one good year. You got to stres our government 723 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: is fat, flabby and not serving the American people. One 724 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: term of any president can't solve it for the long term. 725 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 2: We need to stick together, stack together some wins. But 726 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 2: I am super optimistic about this. Well, this is why 727 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 2: these changes, in these shocks to the system in the 728 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 2: Swamp and in DC, they're going on. It's so important 729 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:01,760 Speaker 2: because we're always fighting a loose using battle as conservatives, 730 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:03,920 Speaker 2: as Republicans, as MAGA. 731 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: All of it. 732 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:10,360 Speaker 2: If when we win, there is an apparatus that stands 733 00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 2: athwart us, that is non responsive to elections and actually 734 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 2: institutes a lot of policy. Yeah, and so this is 735 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 2: now the beginning of the reshaping, and it is, to 736 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 2: your point, the beginning of it, but this is the 737 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: reshaping of it. And I think in a lot of ways, 738 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: this is what we saw on Trump's first term, where 739 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 2: the FBI was weaponized and the various agencies were effectively 740 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,439 Speaker 2: dug in and refusing to comply wherever they could with Trump, 741 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 2: especially in the first year or two. You know, there 742 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 2: were lessons learned there, and there are lessons that not 743 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 2: only apply for Donald Trump as a president, but I 744 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,359 Speaker 2: think we'll continue to apply going forward for everybody who 745 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 2: is a Republican who's trying to change things and do 746 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 2: things differently. And that is you have to It's a 747 00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 2: little bit like the playing field and the refs, right, 748 00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 2: so we would show up to the game as Republicans 749 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 2: and the refs have been bought off, and you know, 750 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 2: one side of the field has got like divots and 751 00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 2: holes and all this stuff in it, and we're like, well, 752 00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 2: hold on a second, this isn't the way it's supposed 753 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 2: to be. Now we're fixing that so that there's a 754 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 2: more level playing field for the actual implementation of Republican policy. 755 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 2: It's and that's why it's just so refreshing, because Clay, 756 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,439 Speaker 2: this stuff goes beyond the four years of Trump's term. 757 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 2: If you can reshape the federal bureaucracy, if you can 758 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 2: cut the spending, it changes the whole mindset. It changes 759 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 2: our whole perception of governance in America. It also, I 760 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 2: think that's important too, not only for Trump. Somebody out 761 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 2: there is the fifteen year old Elon Musk. Somebody out 762 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 2: there is going to be like him in the years ahead, 763 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 2: aspires to achieve the remarkable things that he has done 764 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 2: and will do that for his generation of Americans. If 765 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 2: it becomes cool to give back to your government and 766 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 2: make sure that the government's not wasting money, think about 767 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 2: these brilliant Yeah, I mean, I know they're getting ripped. 768 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 2: People are like, oh, they've got like nineteen and twenty 769 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 2: twenty year olds going through line by line the federal 770 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 2: government expenses like I know they're ripping them on the left, 771 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,000 Speaker 2: aren't those guys? 772 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: Heroes? Like to be giving of. 773 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 2: Your time and not getting paid a ton of money 774 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,280 Speaker 2: just for your country, to try to be more efficient 775 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 2: and to more fairly allocate all of our tax dollars, 776 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,239 Speaker 2: like these are the best of us. 777 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: Like, that's an incredible thing to be giving, right to 778 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 1: have that gift? 779 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 2: Who should who represents more the American ethos at its 780 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 2: core and should be more supported by the average American 781 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 2: tax paying You know, guy or gal, the people who 782 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 2: are putting cots in government offices to stay there and 783 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: do the absolute maximum that they possibly can to eliminate waste, 784 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 2: fraud and abuse. Or the people who are crying and 785 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:12,000 Speaker 2: throwing tantrums because they're you know, transgender, DEEI drag queen 786 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 2: story hour budget for Sub Saharan Africa and East Asia 787 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 2: and whatever is no longer in existence. 788 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, do you see, Like, who's a good guy here 789 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,839 Speaker 1: to the American people? I'm pretty sure this is clear, 790 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:25,399 Speaker 1: but it's funny. 791 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 2: The media is, Oh, they're apoplectic over this, and they 792 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: just keep digging bigger holes for themselves. One bit of 793 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,920 Speaker 2: news too that I meant to mention. Several of you 794 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 2: asked this question. Remember Joe Biden turned down the Super 795 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 2: Bowl interview in the past two years, which is unheard 796 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 2: of because you get the opportunity to talk to tens 797 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 2: of millions of Americans. Trump is doing the super Bowl 798 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 2: interview with Brett Behar Fox News. The super Bowl is 799 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 2: airing on Fox. But just FYI, a few of you 800 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,759 Speaker 2: have asked, Trump is going not to prizingly, he's going 801 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 2: to the game, but he's also going to take the 802 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 2: opportunity to address the largest possible audience he can and 803 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:10,279 Speaker 2: return to doing the traditional super Bowl interview. But to me, 804 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 2: this was a sign that they knew Biden wasn't up 805 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: to the job because the traditional super Bowl interview, Hey, look, 806 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 2: this is not the most difficult interview that a president's 807 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 2: going to sit for the fact that they didn't take 808 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 2: that opportunity to do it with Biden for the final 809 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 2: two years of his term was a sign that they 810 00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 2: just didn't think he was capable of communicating in a 811 00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 2: way that would strike most Americans as reflecting that he 812 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:38,880 Speaker 2: could do the job. So I think they were hiding him. 813 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 2: Trump not surprisingly right back to doing that interview, which 814 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 2: I think whether you're a Democrat or Republican is a 815 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 2: smart political move. Why wouldn't you want to talk to 816 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 2: tens of millions of football fans in a relatively non 817 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 2: threatening manner on a day when most people just want 818 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 2: to kick back and enjoy some sports. Since we're in 819 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 2: the sports zone, here's an easy one. If your life 820 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 2: savings depended on the out come of a football game 821 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:06,319 Speaker 2: and you had to pick for your team to win, 822 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 2: Joe Biden or President Trump as a coach. I think 823 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 2: I think every I think even everyone who voted for 824 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 2: Biden would go with President Trump to coach their team 825 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 2: if their life savings depended on the outcome. I don't 826 00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 2: believe a single I don't believe a single person would 827 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 2: be like, you know what, I need Joe Biden to 828 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,279 Speaker 2: run my football team. No way do you think Joe 829 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 2: Biden could stand on the sideline for three I mean, 830 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 2: I'm not even kidding. I don't think Joe Biden could walk. 831 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 2: You know, you walk several miles when you're a coach 832 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:35,799 Speaker 2: on the sideline during the course of a three hour 833 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: football game, to say nothing of walking on and off 834 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 2: the field and all of the aspects going in and 835 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,560 Speaker 2: out of the locker room. I don't think Joe Biden, 836 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,839 Speaker 2: to say nothing of actually coaching. I don't think Joe 837 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 2: Biden could have stood on the sideline and walked to 838 00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 2: and from the locker room just to be like ceremonially 839 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 2: on the sideline. 840 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 1: I don't think he's capable of doing it. 841 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 2: You know.

Well, maybe that's changing. We shall 879 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:05,080 Speaker 1: discuss that. 880 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 2: But the big thing going on right now we wanted 881 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:13,240 Speaker 2: to dive into is Elon Musk is giving the federal 882 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 2: bureaucracy a very thorough exam. He's got the rubber gloves 883 00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 2: on and he is checking it out, seeing. 884 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 1: What's going on. 885 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 2: And it turns out that there's a lot of problems 886 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 2: and waste and it's a mess. And so he's looking 887 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 2: to have the Trump administration chop things down, cut things up. 888 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 1: Feed it into the wood chipper, as he has said. 889 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 2: Part of this is the buyout package that was offered, 890 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,760 Speaker 2: which only twenty thousand federal workers out of two million 891 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 2: have taken up the offer on this they have until 892 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 2: Thursday to decide if they will take eight months pay 893 00:48:54,800 --> 00:49:01,919 Speaker 2: and benefits in exchange for voluntarily resign walking away. Yes, Clay, 894 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:05,120 Speaker 2: I just think if this number ends up being true, 895 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 2: and to your point, they have one another two days 896 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 2: to theoretically sign up. 897 00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: It's one percent right now so far less than one percent? 898 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:14,280 Speaker 1: What percent? 899 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:20,399 Speaker 2: How cushy are these jobs? If that few people will 900 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:24,359 Speaker 2: actually take this offer? Because I will tell you right now, 901 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,000 Speaker 2: I guarantee you way more than one percent of the 902 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,840 Speaker 2: people that are listening to us right now. If you 903 00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: were told, hey, you get paid through February and you 904 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,239 Speaker 2: can just walk away and go find a new job, 905 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 2: I bet twenty five percent of the people listening to 906 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,560 Speaker 2: us right now would take that offer, at least because 907 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 2: your jobs tend to be tough and you might not 908 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 2: like them very much, and you would say, Okay, I'll 909 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 2: take that payment and I'll go find something else. I 910 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,120 Speaker 2: don't think it's crazy to think that a quarter of 911 00:49:57,200 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 2: you listening to us right now would take it. Heck, 912 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,879 Speaker 2: some of you who are near retirement would be like, hallelujah, 913 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,319 Speaker 2: I get to leave eight months early and I'm going 914 00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 2: to get paid through September. I'll sign up for that 915 00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 2: in a heartbeat. My point on it, Buck is, if 916 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 2: these numbers end up being true, it just shows you 917 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:16,160 Speaker 2: how cushy these jobs are and how little drive and 918 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:20,240 Speaker 2: ambition and industry a lot of these employees have. Because 919 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 2: they're not thinking, oh, I'll go find something better. They 920 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 2: know that they have found the ultimate in don't have 921 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:30,439 Speaker 2: to do anything and get paid reliably and my work 922 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 2: product doesn't matter job, which means all of us, the 923 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 2: taxpayers funding their salaries, are getting screwed. Let me tell 924 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:42,840 Speaker 2: you something about having a long time ago before this 925 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 2: remote work from home stuff was even really technologically feasible. 926 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 2: Although on the national security side you can't do it 927 00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 2: because of classification concerns, right, But for people who work it, 928 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 2: you know, Department of Agriculture EPA, places like that, this 929 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 2: is definitely going to be the case play. Whether it 930 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:01,200 Speaker 2: was at the CIA or in the Intelligence Division of 931 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 2: the NYPD, they always wanted to have fit like when 932 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:08,680 Speaker 2: you were on the clock. They wanted to have physical 933 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 2: control of where you were or or you know, positive 934 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 2: control of your location your butt in the chair in 935 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 2: the office or in the cubicle, and that's where you 936 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 2: had to be because there was really not very much 937 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,520 Speaker 2: they could do to enforce work product, but they could 938 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 2: enforce presence. So the one thing about working for the 939 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:36,640 Speaker 2: federal government until until COVID, until very recently was yeah, okay, 940 00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 2: you know, there's a lot that you can get with 941 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,480 Speaker 2: a lot of shenanigans, a lot of wandering the hallways 942 00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 2: in the building. You can do a lot of you know, 943 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 2: waiting in line for coffee, et cetera. But you have 944 00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 2: to be there, that's the thing. And if you're you 945 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 2: punch in at nine and you leave at five, they 946 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 2: can monitor it. You'll punt, that's what you're you're expected 947 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 2: to do. This has changed such that now the only 948 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,320 Speaker 2: really quantum fiable thing for a lot of these jobs, 949 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 2: your physical presence in the workplace is gone. And this 950 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,360 Speaker 2: is just if you think about it, what are people 951 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 2: doing at home who work for some of these departments 952 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:16,439 Speaker 2: where no, everyone's virtual. They're all sitting there watching TV 953 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:18,840 Speaker 2: and playing video games and maybe they got a computer 954 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 2: on and they, you know, press a button every fifteen minutes, 955 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,360 Speaker 2: so it looks like they're active. They're not doing a 956 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 2: damn thing, a lot of them at least. So that's 957 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 2: what has been exposed by this. Another thing, Clay Elon 958 00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 2: must put out this twenty five minutes ago, would. 959 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:37,080 Speaker 1: You like Doze to audit the IRS? 960 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,200 Speaker 2: You will be unsurprised to find out that over ninety 961 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 2: percent of the hundreds of thousands of votes are saying yes, 962 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 2: they would like to see how the IRS uses taxpayer dollars. 963 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: And then that brings me to the next shoe that 964 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 2: I think is going to drop courtesy of Uncle Elon. 965 00:52:58,600 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 2: Trump administration is rafting in executive order to initiate the 966 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 2: Department of Education's elimination, CNN reporting on this one. The 967 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,240 Speaker 2: move would come in two parts. The order would direct 968 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 2: the Secretary of Education to create a plan to diminish 969 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:19,879 Speaker 2: the department through executive action, and Trump would also push 970 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:24,000 Speaker 2: for Congress to pass legislation to end the department. As 971 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:26,759 Speaker 2: those working on the order acknowledge, shutting the department would 972 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 2: would require congress involvement. Clay the two parts. First, Jimmy 973 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 2: Carter was the one who this is the one that 974 00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:35,760 Speaker 2: I was thinking of. Jimmy Carter created the Education Department. 975 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 2: Department of Education. The first part of this is is 976 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:45,280 Speaker 2: a given, but it's interesting. They're basically trying to clip 977 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 2: the wings of the doe, if you will. I mean 978 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:48,839 Speaker 2: they're trying to make it I don't know how many 979 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,319 Speaker 2: of your own birds, but that means the bird can't 980 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 2: really fly normally. They're trying to make it so that 981 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:55,279 Speaker 2: I had a bird for a little while. 982 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: It's a long story. You have a little while. What 983 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:03,279 Speaker 1: kind of bird? A cockatial? Oh my god, that was 984 00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: an awful decision by you. Well, my parents agreed with you, 985 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 1: because we gave it back to the pet store where I. 986 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 2: Got my sister had. My sister had a bird, and 987 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:13,640 Speaker 2: the damn thing never shut up. I mean it was 988 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 2: it makes a very high noise. It was actually quite 989 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 2: I actually liked the bird. It's quite affectionate. But they, uh, 990 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 2: there's no potty training them and they just keep going 991 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 2: and going and going wherever. And uh they had like 992 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 2: a little retractable mohawk. My cockatial. I liked my cockatial. 993 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:27,880 Speaker 2: But anyway, we don't have to get into that now. 994 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 1: It's sad. I didn't last. Apparently your parents you're really poor. 995 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:33,520 Speaker 2: They didn't want to. They didn't want to get a 996 00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,359 Speaker 2: dog yet for us, so they eventually got a dog 997 00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 2: and that was the right move. So the intermediary was 998 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 2: I had a cockatial and I think it lasted like 999 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 2: I don't know, my parents say weeks. 1000 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 1: I think a few months. 1001 00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 2: Point being you returned it, can you return to animals somehow? 1002 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:49,520 Speaker 2: My dad, yeah, my dad would just like take this, 1003 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 2: take this cockatial back, and they took it back, yeah. 1004 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:53,759 Speaker 1: To the pet still. I didn't know. 1005 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 2: All right, that's good, Yeah, yeah, mine got it. My 1006 00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,800 Speaker 2: sister's got knocked. The cat knocked it over, and it 1007 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 2: flew out of the uh into a Nashville winter day 1008 00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 2: and probably didn't last very long. I wouldn't imagine in 1009 00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 2: the in the tree, like you could see it in 1010 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 2: the tree. The leaves were all gone. It was bright, 1011 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,920 Speaker 2: you know, blue pink or whatever it was. And uh, 1012 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:15,359 Speaker 2: I I don't know. I guess it probably froze to death. 1013 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 2: It was a dark dark into the Travis family cockat 1014 00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 2: this is this is taking a dark turn. I mean, 1015 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 2: but I guess maybe the cat shouldn't have tried to 1016 00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 2: eat it, I guess. 1017 00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 4: But. 1018 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:28,400 Speaker 2: You know how I knew that the bird was not 1019 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 2: was not long for the h I think I was 1020 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 2: like eight or nine when this was going on. My 1021 00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:36,399 Speaker 2: dad reached into, and you know, he had been told 1022 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:39,120 Speaker 2: to be patient. He reached in to grab the bird 1023 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 2: and it bit him because they have a meat. They 1024 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 2: have a mean little beak if you try to get 1025 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:44,840 Speaker 2: rough with them, and it bit him, and I was like, 1026 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 2: this bird's is not long for this world. I was 1027 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 2: just glad there weren't tiny drumsticks on the I just 1028 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:50,919 Speaker 2: remember how loud that damn bird was. If you didn't 1029 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 2: have the cover on top of the cage. It never 1030 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,520 Speaker 2: shut up. I mean it was incessant. I mean, Carrie 1031 00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:58,240 Speaker 2: can't hear this right now, al though she could probably 1032 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 2: listen to the show on podcasts, but she's doing something 1033 00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 2: something else. 1034 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:02,160 Speaker 1: If she would let me, I would get a bird. 1035 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,480 Speaker 2: Anyway, All right, let's go back. Let's go back to 1036 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 2: what is important here in saving the country. So the 1037 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 2: part one Clay basically cutting the budget, slashing the budget 1038 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 2: down or slashing the everything that the executive branch can do, 1039 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 2: closing down as much of the Department education as possible 1040 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 2: so that it is kind of like neutered, and then 1041 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:27,439 Speaker 2: trying to get Congress to go along with just shut 1042 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 2: the whole damn thing down. 1043 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: What do you think. 1044 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,279 Speaker 2: I so, first of all, the challenge here is that 1045 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,920 Speaker 2: these guys are going to try to sue to keep 1046 00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 2: their jobs. So what you should expect is they're going 1047 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 2: to try to fire people, and these federal employees are 1048 00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:49,800 Speaker 2: going to say, because of their incredibly protective unions, that 1049 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 2: their contracts don't allow them to be fired. So we 1050 00:56:54,200 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 2: are going to end up in a multi year battle. 1051 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 2: This is why offering buyouts makes sense at so many 1052 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 2: companies because it's actually very difficult to fire people. I 1053 00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 2: didn't know this until I started running a company, because 1054 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,879 Speaker 2: I just assumed that I could always get fired left 1055 00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 2: and right, and I've been fired. 1056 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:16,000 Speaker 1: Left and right. 1057 00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 2: But when you are a union employee, as most of 1058 00:57:21,080 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 2: these government employees are to my knowledge, Buck, it becomes really, 1059 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,919 Speaker 2: really hard to get rid of them. So I love 1060 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 2: the idea, I've said it before, I wish and I 1061 00:57:30,680 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 2: think this is where Elon is going to get frustrated 1062 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 2: because the analogy here is very comparable. The email that 1063 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 2: he sent to the government employees is very similar to 1064 00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 2: the one that he sent to Twitter employees. When you 1065 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 2: own a private company, it's way easier to fire people 1066 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 2: so long as they aren't members of unions. And it's 1067 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 2: my understanding that Twitter was not a union based company, 1068 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 2: and so Elon could go in and he could fire 1069 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 2: most people or buy them out depending on what their 1070 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 2: contracts were, things like that. But when you have union employees, 1071 00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:06,600 Speaker 2: it becomes incredibly difficult. And so I suspect that that's 1072 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 2: why they're trying to get people to leave voluntarily. Because 1073 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 2: while the goal may be one that I admire and 1074 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 2: I wish, we could fire fifty or seventy five percent 1075 00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 2: of all federal employees. And I don't think taxpayers would 1076 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: miss it, and I think it would save us trillions 1077 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 2: of dollars over the generations ahead. I think we're going 1078 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 2: to have major legal challenges and it's going to be 1079 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 2: ponderous to get much of this done. That's my concern. 1080 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 2: I could be wrong, but the union contracts typically are 1081 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:38,479 Speaker 2: quite protection protective. Well, but I think if nothing else, 1082 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 2: this is going to force a lot of this out 1083 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 2: into the open. So people are going to realize. I mean, 1084 00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 2: even FDR thought the idea of a public sector union 1085 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,600 Speaker 2: was an abomination. I mean it was a whole agree 1086 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:57,040 Speaker 2: horrible idea, which is completely true, by the way. Teachers unions, 1087 00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:58,360 Speaker 2: by the way, probably the worst. 1088 00:58:58,200 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 1: Of all of this. 1089 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 2: Yes, teachers union should not exist. If you want to 1090 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 2: teach in your local public school, whatever, that's great. That 1091 00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,160 Speaker 2: should be left up to the public school and your 1092 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 2: district to determine what your salary and benefits are. There 1093 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,360 Speaker 2: should not be this collective bargaining with the state through 1094 00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 2: public sector unions that occurs there. And so yeah, I 1095 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 2: think that this is going to force people to look 1096 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:21,520 Speaker 2: at this in more detail. I would also say though, 1097 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 2: that because you have elon looking at this, there's many 1098 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 2: ways to get it done. And for example, it is 1099 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 2: already existing regulation or law that if you are a 1100 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 2: new federal government employee. 1101 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:39,360 Speaker 1: At I think it's the EPA that is. 1102 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:42,439 Speaker 2: Covered by this right now, but it's probably true everywhere Clay, 1103 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:44,960 Speaker 2: you're technically on probation for the first year, eighteen months, 1104 00:59:45,040 --> 00:59:51,600 Speaker 2: something like that. They've effectively prepared all Biden hired probationary 1105 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:55,520 Speaker 2: EPA employees probationary just because they're new, not because they've 1106 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 2: actually done anything to be fired, and that they can 1107 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 2: and do under the existing rules and regulations. So this 1108 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:06,000 Speaker 2: is now that's only a thousand, well a thousand people's 1109 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 2: a lot of people, but not in the federal government context. 1110 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:12,240 Speaker 2: Point here is they're going to find every way they 1111 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 2: can to pressure the system to cut it down to 1112 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,560 Speaker 2: show even just showing the public what's really going on. 1113 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:23,400 Speaker 2: And that's where I think things can get more interesting. 1114 01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 1: Over the long run. Buckle up. 1115 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 2: The firing of federal employees thing is going to be 1116 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 2: really fascinating to see, and I hope although it doesn't 1117 01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,080 Speaker 2: sound like the numbers are what we had hoped. I 1118 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:38,960 Speaker 2: hope way more than twenty thousand people are going to 1119 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 2: end up taking these offers to get paid through September. 1120 01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 2: But if they don't, it gives you a very good 1121 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,600 Speaker 2: sense for how cushy those jobs really are, because again, 1122 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:51,960 Speaker 2: I bet twenty five percent of you would gladly take 1123 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 2: a payout through September and go find a new job 1124 01:00:55,280 --> 01:00:57,600 Speaker 2: because you don't particularly love the jobs you have, and 1125 01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:00,160 Speaker 2: you'd like to find one that you liked more. These 1126 01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 2: federal government jobs were really tough, and people didn't feel 1127 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 2: like they were getting compensated at their fair market value. 1128 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 2: Do you think they'd all be trying to keep them? 1129 01:01:08,880 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 2: I just think we're all getting taken advantage of all 1130 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,640 Speaker 2: the taxpayers are We don't think about it much, But 1131 01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,720 Speaker 2: how prepared are you when it comes to protecting your 1132 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,680 Speaker 2: home and family from intruders? Most people keep fire extinguishers 1133 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 2: no brainer. Having Saber products should be a no brainer too. 1134 01:01:21,800 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 2: They've been manufacturing self protection tools for fifty years, continually 1135 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 2: refining and improving them.
