And 178 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 12: they go on, I am a trans MTF fifteen year old. 179 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 12: I've been viewing a lot of anime related content I 180 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 12: was never into before and goes on about always relating 181 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 12: himself to these anime characters, and Matt Walsh posts this 182 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 12: and basically saying these people are not mentally well, and 183 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 12: everyone on the pro transgender reddit's fipped out at the time. 184 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 12: It went viral at the time, and now here we 185 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 12: are three years later, and it appears to the owner 186 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 12: of that account is the young man who murdered two 187 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 12: of his family members and then a bunch of innocent 188 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 12: people at his a bunch of innocent children at his 189 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 12: own school. 190 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 11: Yeah, and we have the video here with the sound, 191 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 11: and I wanted to play it with the sound because 192 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 11: when you see this with the audio, I think it's 193 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 11: even more impactful, it's more terrifying. 194 00:08:50,960 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 3: For sixty nine. 195 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 11: Yeah again, oh my god. 196 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, we will never do that again. 197 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 11: But I think it's important because these are the people 198 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 11: that a certain contingent of the population, mostly radical progressives, 199 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 11: are doing everything in their power to defend, to apologize for, 200 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 11: to create avenues and protections legal or otherwise, as opposed 201 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 11: to getting them the health that they need. You should 202 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,719 Speaker 11: have compassion on people that have mental health issues. You 203 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 11: should not enable those mental health issues. But another wrinkle 204 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 11: has emerged that this individual had a Roadblocks account, and 205 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 11: this is going to be a repeated theme on this show. 206 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 11: Moving forward, we're going to unpack what Roadblocks is and 207 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 11: Blake is our resident gaming expert here. This is a 208 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 11: Roadblocks account well, but you probably know more about it 209 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 11: than I do. Belonging to the Canadian mass shooter. It 210 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 11: was discovered by the internet form Kiwi Farms last night. 211 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 11: One of the games created by the shooter is a 212 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 11: mall shooting simulator, a mall shooting simulator modeled after a 213 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 11: real mall in Canada, where the player can fire into 214 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 11: a crowd of innocent, helpless, terrified civilians. So this is 215 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 11: what young kids can do on Roadblocks. They can create simulations, 216 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 11: they can create their own worlds that they can then 217 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 11: act out these fantasies. I think this is interesting because 218 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 11: actually the Kentucky Attorney General is actually suing Roadblocks and 219 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 11: is charting is a sighting the assassination of Charlie as 220 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 11: one of his inspirations for doing this, because he's saying 221 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 11: that the gaming platform is violating child safety by giving 222 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 11: them opportunity to create these simulations where they can shoot 223 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 11: ICE officers, where they can shoot DHS officers, where they can, 224 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 11: in this instance, create a simulation where they're attacking innocent civilians. 225 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 5: At a mall modeled after a mall. 226 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 11: So if you think this through, you realize that they 227 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 11: could be creating an entire map for how they can 228 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 11: game out an actual attack on civilians. So they're creating 229 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 11: the map in their head so that they could, in theory, 230 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,120 Speaker 11: follow through on an actual shooting based on the actual 231 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 11: layout of a mall in this instance, or any other 232 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 11: public space, any other soft target. So that's the Kentucky 233 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 11: Attorney General Russell Coleman. And the gaming platform has one 234 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 11: hundred and eleven million active monthly users, and he's alleging 235 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 11: that it lacks guardrails to protect kids and creates a 236 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 11: playground for pedophiles to meet potential victims, which is another 237 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 11: weird wrinkle in this Roadblox story. 238 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 5: So you've got a whole. 239 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 11: Gaming platform that now we know that this kid was 240 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 11: on Reddit. He was talking about his trans fascination on Reddit. 241 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 11: He was creating Roadblocks simulations where he was doing mass shootings, 242 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 11: and then he actually ends up going and doing it 243 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 11: and shooting his mom, shooting his stepbrother, shooting a bunch 244 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 11: of kids and a teacher. And meanwhile, the Canadian officials 245 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 11: that we talked about this yesterday went out of their 246 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 11: way to protect the identity in the privacy of the shooter. 247 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 5: Out of privacy concerns. 248 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 11: They refuse to acknowledge at first that this was a 249 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 11: trans person that shot up everybody in Canada. Well, think 250 00:12:57,040 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 11: about that, the absolutely upside down nature of their value 251 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 11: system that they would care about the privacy of a 252 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 11: mass murder. 253 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 12: Go ahead, Blake, Yeah, well so yeah, they kept it 254 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 12: a secret. Basically, it almost felt like just long enough 255 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 12: to like, Okay, we have to push this past the 256 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 12: first day, and then you know they ultimately can't keep 257 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 12: it secret. 258 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,000 Speaker 8: Who did a massacre like this? 259 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 12: On the Roadblock topic, it's you don't want to fixate 260 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 12: on the specific game though it is true a ton 261 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 12: of people are in it's hugely popular, but you also 262 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 12: find these people in Minecraft, you find them in similar games, 263 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,080 Speaker 12: and you'll also see people we saw this with Charlie 264 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 12: where people are going in discords. Discords started as a 265 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 12: gaming server for people to discuss games, but now there's 266 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 12: a million discords dedicated to political radicalisms, dedicated to transgender topics. 267 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 12: They radicalize each other on these forums, and I think 268 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 12: the big picture thing to be aware of, like if 269 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 12: you're a parent right now. If you're a parent right now, 270 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 12: you have to realize there are gigantic online worlds that 271 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 12: it's very easy for your children to get suck into 272 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 12: and have it just totally take over their life. If 273 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 12: you don't know who your children are talking to online, 274 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 12: you have to be aware very dark things could be 275 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 12: going on. And it's not that you need to police 276 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 12: everything you do, but you should be talking to them 277 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 12: who are your friends online and make sure they have 278 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 12: friends offline as well.

All right, so real quick here, there 326 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 11: is a graph going around. 327 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 5: We're working on confirming it. 328 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 11: There isn't any listed sources, but Blake probably Blake just 329 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 11: put up a great tweet yesterday documenting all the recent 330 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 11: shootings that involve trans people, and so at least directionally, 331 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 11: this graph feels accurate. So go ahead and throw up 332 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 11: four to forty eight. It's mass shootings by demographic twenty 333 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 11: fifteen to twenty twenty five, and that these are public 334 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 11: incidents with four more fatalities expressed as rates per million 335 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 11: of the population, trans non binary biological male tops the list. 336 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 11: Per capita of mass shootings, trans non binary biological female 337 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 11: comes in second than Asian men, Black men, white men, 338 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 11: Asian women, Hispanic men. Now, again we're working on confirming 339 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 11: the source, but it's hard to argue when you look back, 340 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 11: even just at recent history, when you look back at 341 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 11: what even happened with Charlie. Although the Charlie shooter was 342 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 11: not a trans individual himself, he had a relationship with 343 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 11: somebody that was trans and had gender identity whatever. And 344 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 11: so this is a rising epidemic, a problem where we 345 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 11: give drugs, mental drugs, mental health drugs, SSRIs et cetera, 346 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 11: hormone therapy to the most mentally unstable people in our population. 347 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 11: And it needs to stop. It should be frankly illegal 348 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 11: what they're doing to young people. And Blake, do you 349 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 11: have that list of recent shootings, school shootings, church shootings 350 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 11: involving trans individuals. 351 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 12: I don't have it in front of me, but I 352 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 12: can remember a lot of, you know, off the top 353 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 12: of my head. We have the Covenant school shooter that 354 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 12: was that was a biological female, but still a trans case. 355 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 12: There was one at a school in Colorado. I think 356 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 12: in twenty seventeen there were two shooters, but one was transgender. 357 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:42,400 Speaker 12: There was the Annunciation Catholic in Minneapolis just a matter 358 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 12: of months ago, in fact, just days before what happened 359 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 12: to Charlie. And of course we have the Charlie's own case, 360 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 12: which is adjacent and now this. And it's not that 361 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 12: there's a huge number of them by volume, but overall 362 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 12: there's not, thankfully, there's not that many spree killers overall, 363 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 12: and there's not that many transer people. They're probably under 364 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 12: one percent of the population, even with young people. And 365 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 12: so to have four or five of them just in 366 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 12: a sequence of a matter of years, it really does 367 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,920 Speaker 12: stand out. And I don't think that's going to be 368 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 12: the last we're going to see of it, because we 369 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 12: took this insane cocktail of people who are deeply troubled, 370 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 12: and instead of getting them help, we've told them, actually, 371 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 12: your delusions should be indulged. And if people are not 372 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:33,200 Speaker 12: indulging them, they're trying to commit genocide against you. And rationally, 373 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 12: how do you respond to people trying to commit genocide 374 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 12: against you? And just fed all of these lies about 375 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 12: how they should view this how they should act, and 376 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 12: then supercharged with any. 377 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 8: Number of drugs, hormones. 378 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 12: SSRIs the shooter in tumblr Ridge, he was apparently taking 379 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 12: over two hundred milligrams a day of zoloff when twenty 380 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 12: five is the one you start with, and I think 381 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 12: two hundred is the absolute maxim So superdosing on this 382 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 12: and on a bunch of other drugs as well, and shocker, 383 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 12: it blew up in everyone's faces. 384 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 8: And I don't think. 385 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 12: This will be the last one we see. 386 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 11: No, I agree, but this is a larger theme of 387 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 11: democrat or if you want to just say progressive left 388 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 11: wing compassion gone away. They do this at the border. 389 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 11: They think that letting in millions of people at the 390 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 11: border is compassion. Then it leads to lots of dead Americans. 391 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 11: It leads to carnage in the streets, commercial trucks getting 392 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 11: into mass fatality accidents on our highways. It is the 393 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:36,479 Speaker 11: complete opposite of compassion. It's actually cruelty to the American citizen. 394 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 11: It's cruelty to in this case, to the Canadian citizen. 395 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 11: When you absolutely defy nature, when you defy law and order, 396 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 11: when you defy the natural order. It ends in these 397 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 11: absolute catastrophes, and that's one of the themes of democrat compassion. 398 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 11: They'll always label or put a veneer of compassion on 399 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 11: some of the cruelest, most obscene, most crass, most absurd 400 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 11: policies or positions that they take in the public space, 401 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 11: and they need to be called out again and again 402 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 11: and again because real people are getting hurt and not 403 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 11: by the way. This young man should have been helped. 404 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 11: You should have been dealt with with compassion and with honesty, 405 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 11: with sincerity. But the left creates a ideological prison around 406 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 11: normal people that they cannot navigate out of. They're not 407 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 11: equipped to navigate out of it, and they get stuck 408 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 11: in these ideological cul de sacs where even this mother, 409 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 11: who apparently was sort of a right leaning libertarian type 410 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 11: person posted on her social media that we shouldn't be 411 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 11: attacking marginalized people and with a blake correct me if 412 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 11: I'm wrong. It was with a picture on her social 413 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 11: media with like a transflag. 414 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 8: Or a LGBTQ flag exactly. 415 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 12: And that's but the language of compassion sort of takes 416 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 12: over these people's brains and they interpret compassion as endless enabling, 417 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 12: So we enable the delusion of people who think they're 418 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 12: the opposite sex. We enable people to forex like people 419 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 12: who shouldn't be in this country, who aren't qualified for jobs. 420 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 12: We help them get into jobs that they should not 421 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 12: be working because they are not qualified for them, they 422 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,239 Speaker 12: are not capable of them. And we enable addicts to 423 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 12: get drugs. We enable the homeless to wreck communities, and 424 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 12: this is cruelty to the individuals themselves. Like I don't 425 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 12: think this transhooter it didn't work out well for him 426 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 12: that he was enabled endlessly. It doesn't work out well 427 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 12: for people who are working the wrong job and they 428 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 12: end up killing people, they end up going to jail, 429 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 12: and it doesn't work out for anyone in society. When 430 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 12: we wreck our cities, when we wreck our public spaces, 431 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 12: when we wreck our institutions, it is fake compassion. Real 432 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 12: compassion requires sometimes making hard choices. This young man probably 433 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 12: should have been in an institution somewhere, somewhere that he 434 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 12: could get help and at the least where he couldn't 435 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 12: hurt himself or other people. 436 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,960 Speaker 8: And instead, nine people are dead. 437 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 5: I've injured. 438 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 11: There's also a harrowing story of a twelve year old 439 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 11: that was shot in the head and she's still surviving 440 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 11: and we pray for her and her family. Just a 441 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 11: terrible situation all the way around.

We work with cletand Mitchell, who's one of 528 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 13: the President Trump's great lawyers. With the America First Legal 529 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 13: built a great product that was focused on the citizenship 530 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 13: angle right, ensuring that we had a process when people 531 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,479 Speaker 13: were going through their registration in the future that there 532 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 13: was processes for them to demonstrate citizenship and importantly for 533 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 13: states to check their voter roles against citizenship data, which 534 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,879 Speaker 13: they're currently prohibited from doing under a federal law. I'll 535 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 13: come back to that in a minute. So we fixed that, 536 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 13: but then enter voter ID. We thought about putting voter 537 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 13: ID with it two years ago, but we decided to 538 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 13: keep it really simple books on citizenship, so we passed it. 539 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 6: What happened, Senate blocked it. 540 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 13: Even though we had four Democrats five I'm sorry five 541 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 13: joined us last Congress. We reintroduced at this Congress. We 542 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 13: had four Democrats join us, but it wasn't moving in 543 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 13: the Senate because we knew that Democrats would block it. 544 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 13: So we've been having this debate and we said, let's 545 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 13: add voter ID. The President likes the branding of Save America. 546 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 13: Let's put those two together. Let's pass that out of 547 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 13: the House, send it to the Senate, and with a 548 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,719 Speaker 13: great work of Scott Presler, of a whole bunch of organizations, 549 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 13: you guys, everybody else keeping the heat up, We've now 550 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 13: got it out of the House. We passed it through 551 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 13: last night, had one Democrat joint us. There's still bipartisan 552 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 13: is over in the Senate, and now Mike Lee, Scott 553 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 13: Presler and others are working at hard and I think 554 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 13: I just saw on Twitter or on x that forty 555 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 13: eight I think now senators have signed on to the 556 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 13: same America Act, leaving only five in question. McConnell and 557 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,479 Speaker 13: Murkowski indicated they may not support it on federalism grounds, 558 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 13: which I think is fake and to totally honors federalism 559 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 13: in the Constitution. So that's the current state of play. 560 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 13: Now we've got to figure out what they do in 561 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 13: the Senate. 562 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 5: Yes, so explain. 563 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,920 Speaker 11: You brought up two points the federalism angle as well 564 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 11: as well. Let's start there federalism angle, because the issue 565 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 11: is is that the Constitution gives the states the rights 566 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 11: to the time and the place of their elections. Right, 567 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 11: So this is kind of the angle. What is your 568 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 11: argument and your retort to that? 569 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 13: Yeah, First of all, hard to find somebody who has 570 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 13: stood up over their life to defend states more than 571 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 13: myself Mike Lee. 572 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 6: Right. And we're two of the most art and federalists 573 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 6: up here. 574 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 13: When I was the first assistant Attorney General in Texas, 575 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 13: we were fighting against federal overreach. I wrote a book 576 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 13: with Rick Perry about federalism. I served the Texas Public 577 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 13: Policy Center's Tenth Amendment Center. So I love federalism Comma. However, 578 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 13: what we're talking about here is something that has very 579 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 13: clear purview in the Constitution for us. Stop for a minute, 580 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 13: Gunner elections. Federally, we set elections in November. 581 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 5: Right. 582 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,719 Speaker 13: We don't tell states that they have to run their 583 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 13: state elections on the same day, but they do. That's 584 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 13: basically what we say we're doing here. We're setting the 585 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 13: guardrails around things under the power of the Constitution, under 586 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 13: the Elections Clause, under a number of the amendments they 587 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 13: walk through, clinging fourteenth Amendment and a whole bunch of others. 588 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 13: They give us power, but in particular power over dealing 589 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 13: with the elections. When it's our elections, Congress and the presidency. 590 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 13: It does say the states to the time place in mayor, 591 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 13: but it also then says Congress can come in and 592 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 13: do it too explicitly in the Constitution. So we generally 593 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 13: diverted the states, like we're not telling them where the 594 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 13: polling places have to be. Uh, we don't tell them 595 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 13: that their state elections have to be on a certain day, 596 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 13: but we're saying for the federal elections, do them in 597 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 13: November for the general election. And now we're adding these components. Hey, 598 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 13: we just want to guarantee citizenship. And the last thing, 599 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 13: we're freeing up states to do what they want to 600 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 13: do but are prohibited from doing now. So it's pro federalism. 601 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 13: Arizona has two ways of electing. You guys know Arizona. Well, 602 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 13: Arizona check citizenship for state and local, but is prohibited 603 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 13: from doing it for federal. So they have to run 604 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 13: two systems, and they don't check the data on federal 605 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 13: because they're not allowed to the same Act fixes that, 606 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 13: the same Explain that, Yeah, yeah, explain Explain the prohibition 607 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 13: on checking citizenship at on the federal level. 608 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 5: Where does that come from? 609 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 11: What laws that and what does the what does it 610 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 11: actually look like when it's enforced or in action? 611 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 13: Rather, Yeah, So the MVRA passed in the nineties can 612 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 13: the acronym Natural Voter Registration whatever MVRA that had a 613 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 13: clause in there that was interpreted by courts, I think wrongly, 614 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 13: But it was interpreted that way to say that the 615 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 13: states were allowed to take their voter roles, to say, 616 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 13: Arizona take that their list and go, hey, we want 617 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 13: to check that against what's called the SAVE system. It's 618 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 13: why we call this the Save Act. The SAVE system, 619 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 13: which is the system where we have our citizenship data 620 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 13: and make sure those are aligned. The court said you 621 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 13: can't do that, so we set out to fix that. 622 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 13: Then we added to it additional requirements. It says the 623 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 13: next time you register, if you're already registered, you can 624 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 13: go vote. The next time you register, you move, you 625 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 13: change your name. Then you got to go and say, look, 626 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 13: I can prove my citizenship. Here's how I do it. 627 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 13: Maybe that's the state sent of a system check roles 628 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 13: using real idea or whatever they're doing. Maybe it's passport, 629 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 13: maybe it's your vote, your regular driver's license plus a 630 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:56,440 Speaker 13: birth certificate. We set up other ways. We give the 631 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 13: state flexibility. But that's what that's all about. Check the roles, 632 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 13: get it right. I would argue that's deferential to states. 633 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 13: That's helping states do what most of them want to do. 634 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 13: And by the way, on the voter I E piece 635 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 13: thirty I think five states thirty six thirty six states 636 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,480 Speaker 13: have voter I D. So we're just trying to align 637 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 13: all of that so that all of our federal elections 638 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 13: operate the same framework voter right D. 639 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, and then the states are still free to set 640 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 6: their times where the pulling is in a school, community center, 641 00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:27,800 Speaker 6: wherever it is. 642 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 11: Well, so I want to react to something. So President 643 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 11: Obama has chimed in. He's saying Republicans are still trying 644 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 11: to pass the Save Act, a bill it we get 645 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 11: harder to vote and disenfranchise millions of Americans. Join Redistrict 646 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,080 Speaker 11: Act and tell your member of Congress to vote no. 647 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 11: And then I couldn't help but see this beautiful clip 648 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 11: with Scott Jennings and on CNN last night where chaos erupts. 649 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 11: I don't know if you saw this, Congressman, but it's 650 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 11: a phenomenal clip. I'll get your reaction on the other side, 651 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 11: four thirty seven. 652 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 14: Is actually champion a bill that actually would take voting 653 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,719 Speaker 14: rights away from a lot of black people in this country. 654 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 11: Wait, what what voting rights is he taking away from 655 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 11: black voters? 656 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 14: Oh, if we look at the SAT that's exactly what 657 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,800 Speaker 14: we're talking about. That is actually going to continue to 658 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 14: disenfranchise overwhelmingly a lot of people of color. There are 659 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 14: so many civil rights organizations that have run the data. 660 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 14: If we look at the way that it is going 661 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 14: to disenfranchise black voters, it's the same reason why Chuck 662 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 14: Schumer called a Jim Crow two point out. So this 663 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 14: is the same qusent we want to continue. 664 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 15: Elliott, seventy six percent of black voters think we should 665 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 15: show an ID to vote, eighty. 666 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 11: Percent of Hispanic voters, eighty three percent of the American people. 667 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 5: Are you saying that black voters the SiGe. 668 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 2: Don't even know what's good for them? 669 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:49,279 Speaker 11: I mean so, Abby Phillips comes in later and she says, well, 670 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 11: you know, the Save Act isn't about that you got, 671 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 11: like most people don't have their birth certificate, Most people 672 00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:53,759 Speaker 11: don't have, you. 673 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 5: Know, a passport. What's your reaction to that? 674 00:34:56,800 --> 00:35:00,920 Speaker 13: Pushback, Congressman, Well, First of all, for Scott Jennings, he's 675 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 13: doing the right thing and pushing back and he's making 676 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 13: the right points right. But I'll make one additional point 677 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 13: and using an example on a nimember who it was 678 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 13: and what show did it? But somebody went out in 679 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 13: the field and interviewed people in New York about this 680 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 13: issue last year I think it was, and I've seen 681 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 13: this out in social media. And they asked a bunch 682 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 13: of white liberals in Manhattan and they said, hey, isn't 683 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 13: it racist? Don't you have a problem with this and 684 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 13: be a real problem to voter ID and these kind 685 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 13: of rules, And all of these white liberals said, oh, yeah, 686 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 13: it's terrible Black people and they don't know where the 687 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 13: DMV is, they don't often have ID, they don't have 688 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 13: a computer, they can go on the internet, you know 689 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 13: all this stuff. Then they went up, you know, into 690 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 13: Harlem and above Manhattan, and they interviewed some black Americans 691 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 13: in Harlem and said, hey, do you know where the 692 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 13: DMV is? Yeah, it's up on one hundred and twenty 693 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,879 Speaker 13: eighth and you know whatever, do you have an idea? Yeah, 694 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 13: I have an ID. Do you use the internet and 695 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 13: have a computer yeah. I mean it's absurd. It's the 696 00:35:55,840 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 13: height of racism and condescension that these you know, nanny 697 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 13: state white liberals want. 698 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 6: To tell everybody how they can do things, and they say, oh, 699 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 6: well you can't. 700 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 13: I actually think the least functioning people in America are 701 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 13: these white liberals that have been coddled all the way 702 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 13: through their ridiculous, pampered education, and they don't really know 703 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 13: how to function a normal society. On the core issue 704 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 13: of the same Act and the voter ID, the polling 705 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,840 Speaker 13: is obvious, people support it. We worked very hard to 706 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 13: give flexibility to states to allow this all to work. 707 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 13: So let's take the women's issue. They say, well, women 708 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 13: are going to be able to vote because their name change. 709 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 13: First of all, it's a tiny fraction of the population 710 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 13: who have changed, got married, their name is different, and 711 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,920 Speaker 13: they haven't already done all of the stuff they have 712 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,760 Speaker 13: to do for anything else they need. But in that environment, 713 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 13: we added a provision that says, if you go and 714 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 13: you have a conflict with your voter ID, you can 715 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 13: cast a provisional ballot sign and out a davit and 716 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 13: say my name is you know, Jennifer Smith, And I 717 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 13: changed it to Jennifer Jones, right, and you can sign 718 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 13: that out a David under penalty, perjury and vote, So 719 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 13: you can do things that are common sense and the 720 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 13: same act. When we talking about proving citizenship, we have 721 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 13: lots of different ways to do that and allow you 722 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 13: to use lots of different forms of identification and you 723 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,719 Speaker 13: can get a free copy of your certificate if you're 724 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,480 Speaker 13: down to that piece of the process. So it is 725 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 13: not a hybrid. It's rididulous. Yeah, it's obscene. I mean 726 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 13: I find the whole thing laughable. 727 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 11: How they're twisting themselves into pretzels to try and defend this, 728 00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 11: calling it it's going to disenfranchise millions. Yeah, it's going 729 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 11: to disenfranchise millions of illegals and foreigner who shouldn't be voting. 730 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 5: In our election. 731 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,319 Speaker 11: We're going to keep you for one more segment, Congressman. 732 00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:41,399 Speaker 11: I already conferred with your team, but first I want 733 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 11: to tell you guys about All Family Pharmacy.

So it's false as some 770 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 13: of my Democratic colleagues have claimed that it doesn't happen. Yes, 771 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 13: I asked that today because we're voting on the Save 772 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 13: America Act today to enact common sense policy to soroll 773 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 13: the American citizens vote in American elections and enact. 774 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:42,600 Speaker 6: Federal voter ID laws. 775 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,479 Speaker 13: But it's true, for example, that in just this month, 776 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 13: a federal grand jury in Newark and dited two men 777 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 13: with illegally voting in federal election and making false statements. 778 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,600 Speaker 6: Mohammed mazambl and Mohammed. 779 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 13: Shaquiel were non citizens at the time they registered to vote. 780 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:59,799 Speaker 13: This happens, It happens regularly, and you're prosecuting those crimes. Correct, yes, 781 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 13: but does that prosecution of those criminals overturned their previously 782 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:07,760 Speaker 13: cast votes. That's all pending, but it does not overturn 783 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 13: votes that they've cast, right, So passing the state congressmen 784 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 13: would help I deal with that problem. 785 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 5: Yes, Congressmen. 786 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 11: So there was a good interaction for her, but it 787 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 11: was an explosive hearing. Now you are turning point action 788 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 11: endorsed candidate for attorney general in the great state of Texas. 789 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,879 Speaker 11: We're honored to be behind you, back you one hundred 790 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:32,200 Speaker 11: percent of the way. They're congressman, and you know everybody 791 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 11: can support chips campaign. Please chip in if you can. 792 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 11: Pun intended, I suppose Chiproyd dot com. Chiproyd dot com. 793 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 11: I think you're gonna do a great job down there. 794 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 11: But so, you know, that was good. But she, I mean, 795 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 11: she's got a tough job, congressman. I mean, she had 796 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 11: this interaction with Thomas Massey about the Epstein files. Maybe 797 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 11: just unpack how you see all that playing out. It 798 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 11: was some of the victims had their names were not redacted, 799 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 11: but some of the co conspirators or I mean, listen, 800 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 11: I know this is weird. Waters to wade into but 801 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 11: the floor is yours. 802 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,200 Speaker 13: Well, no, I appreciate it, and first of all, I'm 803 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 13: going to take it in the series if I have 804 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 13: a few minutes. 805 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 6: One. 806 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 13: It was a very explosive hearing Democrats were going after 807 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 13: her combatively, trying to attack her on the basis of 808 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 13: what the situation is on the Epstein matter, rather than 809 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 13: going through it logically and sort of calmly to get 810 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 13: an elicit. I think questions on a tough subject. And 811 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 13: when I got to my questions with the Attorney General, 812 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 13: I focused on a handful of things. I wanted to 813 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 13: set the groundwork on other issues like voter fraud, and 814 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 13: I also talked about the extent to which they are 815 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 13: eliminating backlogs and their immigration judges. They're here is an 816 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 13: asylum and all those things important stuff as a baseline 817 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 13: to show they're stopping crime. They're stopping illel aliens when 818 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 13: they're working with DHS, with their judges, they're working to 819 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,879 Speaker 13: stop voter fraud. They're doing a lot of great work. 820 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 13: Crimes going down. So the baseline is America is better 821 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 13: and safer. But Epstein is a real issue. We are 822 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 13: all concerned about these power brokers and what Epstein himself did. 823 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 6: But I focused this way. I said one true or false? 824 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 13: President Trump, his administration is the one that actually indicted Epstein. 825 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 2: Answer. 826 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:18,320 Speaker 13: True, it was President Trump's administration that indicted Julane Maxwell. 827 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 2: True. 828 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 13: Those two were at jail because of the first Trump term. 829 00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:25,360 Speaker 13: President Trump says, Hey, we want to know all the 830 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,239 Speaker 13: files on this stuff. So what happens over the last year. 831 00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 13: A lot of files have gotten out. Democrats politicized it, 832 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 13: and they wanted to push for more information. Well, guess 833 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,920 Speaker 13: what I want to see more information. I bet you 834 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 13: guys want to see more information. We don't want these 835 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 13: power brokers to abuse underage women in a sex trafficking ring. 836 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 6: It's disgusting. 837 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 13: So the question is how when Congress passed the law 838 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 13: that my friend Thomas and these other guys pushed. 839 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 6: They did a discharge petition. We were concerned a. 840 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 13: Lot of us that it wasn't tightly drafted enough to 841 00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 13: ensure that victims would be protected. So I asked the 842 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 13: Attorney General, Bobby, I said, is it not true that 843 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 13: we pushed to try to make that a better demand? 844 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 13: If Congress was going to insert itself into the prostitual function, 845 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 13: which is a questionable thing to do, but you want 846 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 13: to do it to get more information. Shouldn't we have 847 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 13: been tighter about that? And I said, so why did 848 00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 13: you guys? And I asked her appointed question, why did 849 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 13: you basically out some of the Jane does some of 850 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 13: these women who were abused. 851 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 6: We didn't want their names out. That was not supposed 852 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 6: to happen. 853 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 13: So I pushed on her about it, and she basically admitted, 854 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 13: we were getting three million files out and we didn't 855 00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 13: get it all done right. So we're fixing it. And 856 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 13: when we saw some we're fixing it now. That may 857 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 13: not be a good excuse. 858 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 2: I don't know. 859 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 6: We can debate that, but I wanted it to be 860 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 6: honest and open. 861 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 13: Last point, I pushed on this question, if Julane Maxwell 862 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 13: was convicted for trafficking and young girls and underage girls, 863 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 13: well was it just Epstein or are there others? In 864 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:55,959 Speaker 13: other words, are you going to indict or go after 865 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 13: anybody else? And I was the only one that pressed 866 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 13: her to the point to say, and she said, we 867 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 13: have ongoing investigations on individuals that you know they're going 868 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:07,919 Speaker 13: to pursue further on that subject. So look, I think 869 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 13: they're trying to go after and seek the truth. We 870 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 13: have a job to push. I'm going to kind of 871 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,040 Speaker 13: try to go look at the files this afternoon. I 872 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 13: was going to fly home, but I can only get 873 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:17,800 Speaker 13: a spot because the hearing in the same back this afternoon. 874 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 13: So I'm going to go over to the DJ and 875 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,279 Speaker 13: look at some of this stuff. But we're trying to 876 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 13: seek the truth wherever it may lead. The attorney Joeral 877 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,520 Speaker 13: was doing a good job stopping crime, and I think 878 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:28,920 Speaker 13: it was a bunch of political show by Democrats trying 879 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,760 Speaker 13: to score political points, not actually for truth. 880 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 11: Yeah, and I would give her really good, really good 881 00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 11: marks on some of her pushback, like why didn't you 882 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 11: do this during Biden? You know, it's obviously a political 883 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 11: football that they just see an opportunity now to take 884 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 11: advantage of. 885 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 5: So I think that was high marks. 886 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 11: I think she unfortunately went a little off the rails 887 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 11: with this, you know, the mentioning the Dow Jones being 888 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 11: over fifty thousand dollars in SMP almost at five hundred 889 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 11: or seven thousand. I thought that it was unfortunate. It 890 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 11: was a kind of an unforced air there. But to 891 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 11: be fair to her, she's getting peppered with all these 892 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:08,720 Speaker 11: very belligerent questions again. 893 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 5: And again and again. And I'm glad to hear. 894 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 11: That because I actually didn't see that clip. 895 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 5: Chip about you. 896 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,400 Speaker 11: She confirmed to you that there's ongoing investigations about the 897 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 11: co conspirators. Right, That's been a big thing on ex 898 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 11: this week that Les Wexner is. Now you know one 899 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 11: of the files had him listed as a co conspirator. Obviously, 900 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 11: that's the Victoria's Secrets guy out Ohio. That could power 901 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 11: Attorney to Epstein. Listen, Chip, in the last minute that 902 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 11: we have here, you are running for Attorney General of Texas. 903 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,879 Speaker 11: What are your big issues, your plank issues that you're 904 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,319 Speaker 11: running on. I know you're an immigration hawk like me. 905 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 11: That's one of the big reasons why I am very proud. 906 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 5: To support you. But what are your big issues? One 907 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 5: minute left? 908 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean one, absolutely, the border. 909 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 13: We have to ready ourselves to the fact that President 910 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 13: Trump's not going to be there forever. We had them before, 911 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 13: and then we got by Borkus and our borders were 912 00:45:55,840 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 13: exploited and Americans were getting killed in fendols pouring at 913 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,719 Speaker 13: our community. So we need an a who's going to 914 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 13: fight that and knows how to do it. I've been 915 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 13: winning up here on that subject. I got to take 916 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 13: that to Texas. Number two, We've got to stop the 917 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 13: Islamification of Texas. I held a hearing two days ago 918 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,919 Speaker 13: where we had great witnesses who came in and talked 919 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 13: about what was going on. Founded the Sharia Pretty America 920 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 13: Caucus with my fellow Texans Keith self. 921 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 6: We're elevating that issue. We need to go to war 922 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 6: on that when we're in Texas. 923 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 13: I want to get criminals off the street, stop putting 924 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 13: them out there with these ridiculous das and judges. 925 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 6: You got to have an AG who's been. 926 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 13: There, who's been in the courtroom, who knows the AG's office, 927 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 13: who's unassailably conservative and can get the job done.

So it's a huge, huge, especially 936 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 11: we get a Democrat back in the White House. We 937 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:00,960 Speaker 11: need Texas to be strong, Chip Roy, thank you, God 938 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 11: bless you, sir. We'll talk to you against soon.

It's been almost 942 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 7: two weeks since eighty four year old Nancy Guthrie's disappearance, 943 00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 7: and it doesn't appear that investigators are any closer to 944 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 7: finding or today than they have been at any point 945 00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 7: in the search. The FBI and local authorities have reportedly 946 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 7: received eighteen thousand tips, and agents are said to be 947 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 7: conducting a quote extensive search for the mother of Today's 948 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,520 Speaker 7: show host Savannah Guthrie.

Kevin Posovic joining me live now with the 952 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 7: very latest. Kevin, get after it. Well, I guess it's 953 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 7: still morning there. 954 00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 5: Good morning, Yes, good to see you, against Aaron. 955 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 16: So, as you can see behind me, is the house 956 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 16: in question here under investigation, and there's media lining the streets. 957 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 16: There's drones in the air. There are even military aircraft 958 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 16: flying over at times. I don't think that's related, but 959 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 16: you never really know. So earlier there's posts and still developing. 960 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:23,200 Speaker 5: There was a team. 961 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 16: There was a white tent constructed behind me at the 962 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 16: entrance where we all saw the video and the nest 963 00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,480 Speaker 16: doorbell being removed or attempted to have been removed with 964 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 16: the glove that is now in forensics. So the forensics 965 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:41,359 Speaker 16: team from p MA County here has come down and 966 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 16: they conducted a procedure of about two hours I want 967 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 16: to say, give or take, and they wrapped up. 968 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:49,560 Speaker 5: About an hour ago. 969 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 16: We got some footage of that, and so we're going 970 00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 16: to wait and see what they find. That is pretty 971 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,919 Speaker 16: much in line with what we've been told so far. Yeah, 972 00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 16: leer than that, it seems relatively stable here. There is 973 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:10,360 Speaker 16: a sheriff's truck on guard here as well, just so 974 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:15,399 Speaker 16: nobody gets onto the property or too snoopy here. And yeah, 975 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 16: that is almost pretty much where we're at. So we're 976 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 16: kind of we're going to keep looking around. 977 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 7: Hey, Kevin, I'm curious if there's a sense on the 978 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:27,959 Speaker 7: ground there that investigators are actually making headway. There seem 979 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 7: to be these small pieces of evidence that are coming 980 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 7: to light. But do the investigators seem to think that 981 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 7: it's leading anywhere. 982 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 5: Well, we certainly hope so. 983 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,319 Speaker 16: And I got to say, honestly, I mean, if there's 984 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 16: eighteen thousand tips, even if all of even if half 985 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 16: of those are actually credible and lead somewhere, it's going 986 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,879 Speaker 16: to take a lot of time to go through all 987 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 16: that and filter that in an expedient way. But yeah, 988 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:55,320 Speaker 16: some of the local live streamers here next. 989 00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 5: To me earlier, we're. 990 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 16: Saying as much in that you know, this should have 991 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 16: had been on day one, not day twelve of this investigation. 992 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 16: And thankfully it hasn't been too windy or rainy during 993 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:15,439 Speaker 16: this week almost two weeks now, case, in which case 994 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,960 Speaker 16: I mean, if you know everything blows around, there go 995 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:20,320 Speaker 16: your tire tracks, there you go your footprints, and especially 996 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,439 Speaker 16: if it rains, there goes all the bloodstains and the fingerprints. 997 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 16: So it's been hot, humid, you know, just desert weather 998 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 16: here so far. 999 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,480 Speaker 5: So but yes, I would agree with Tea. 1000 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 16: It seems that it is slugging along slow and steady, 1001 00:50:37,440 --> 00:50:41,080 Speaker 16: and that is good but also kind of bad. 1002 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 2: So I hate to be negative, keV. 1003 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 7: I hate to be negative, Nancy, but we're twelve days 1004 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 7: in almost two weeks.

Is there 1006 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 7: any sense on the ground, and I would imagine there's buzz, 1007 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 7: you know, reporters, we like to talk other. 1008 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:02,359 Speaker 5: What's kind of. 1009 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 7: The conversations being had.

And I hate to 1012 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:15,960 Speaker 7: be negative, but we got a report it, we got 1013 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 7: to talk about it. 1014 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 5: Well. 1015 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:22,520 Speaker 16: There are there a lot of theories going on. So 1016 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 16: I'm trying to get in touch with the public affairs 1017 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:28,400 Speaker 16: officer of the mc Coounty Sheriff's Department to see if 1018 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 16: I get any any other you know, commentary here. But 1019 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 16: it's it seems that everybody is kind of, you know, 1020 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 16: just in waiting unfortunately. And I think with the ransom 1021 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 16: and then also these leads, like the fingerprinting process will 1022 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 16: take so long, it's kind of getting away from I mean, 1023 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 16: we need a hope or we need more people detained 1024 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:55,640 Speaker 16: here in question. 1025 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 7: Absolutely, Kevin, we appreciate the reporting there on the ground 1026 00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 7: in Tucson, Arizona, as Nancy Guthrie is still missing after 1027 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 7: almost two weeks. 1028 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 11: All right, welcome back over to the Charlie Kirk Show 1029 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,320 Speaker 11: is underway.

And I 1040 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,400 Speaker 11: hope your book is selling like hotcakes because it's so important. 1041 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,560 Speaker 5: I hope you're getting a fresh infusion of that. 1042 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,120 Speaker 11: Because The New York Times is admitted that we've been 1043 00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 11: right all along. 1044 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:12,320 Speaker 4: Four p. 1045 00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 5: Fifty two is the image. 1046 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:18,400 Speaker 11: It's time for America to admit it has a marijuana problem. Big, 1047 00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,400 Speaker 11: big admission from The New York Times, your former employer 1048 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,319 Speaker 11: by the way almost like maybe you sell friends back 1049 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,360 Speaker 11: that are listening to you, Alex, tell us what the 1050 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,360 Speaker 11: New York Times admitted and why now? 1051 00:53:30,920 --> 00:53:33,000 Speaker 2: Sure? So? I mean, by the way, it's interesting you 1052 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,960 Speaker 2: mentioned about the book, because even before The Times put 1053 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 2: this out, it seemed to me that there was something 1054 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:42,320 Speaker 2: in the ether happening with people becoming aware increasingly aware 1055 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 2: of the problems with cannabis and THCHC. I thinkfully, because 1056 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,880 Speaker 2: so many, you know, so many young people are using 1057 00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:53,919 Speaker 2: and using very high potency vapes what's called dabbing, which 1058 00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 2: is essentially smoking chunks of THC, which is the active 1059 00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 2: chemical in cannabis, and when you use that way in particular, 1060 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 2: you can really knock yourself out and become psychotic very quickly. 1061 00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 2: And so I do think that this is, unfortunately to 1062 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 2: something that's happening to people that their friends are seeing, 1063 00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:16,920 Speaker 2: that their family members are seeing, that their parents are seeing, 1064 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:20,239 Speaker 2: and and you know, for whatever reason, the book was 1065 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:22,600 Speaker 2: starting to sell a little bit more even before the 1066 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,240 Speaker 2: Times thing, and now all of a sudden it actually 1067 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 2: has sort of taken off again in terms of sales, 1068 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,239 Speaker 2: which is pretty amazing because it came out to tell 1069 00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 2: your children seven years ago, and I promise you I 1070 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 2: will tell you the Times my view on the Times, 1071 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 2: which I think is very important that they did this. 1072 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 2: But I want to tell you something even more important 1073 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:41,960 Speaker 2: that happened in the last forty eight hours, which is 1074 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 2: at a conservative commentator, a young woman named Brett Cooper 1075 00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:50,320 Speaker 2: who you may know, posting. 1076 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,360 Speaker 12: Yeah, we actually have this post. Let's throw it up, guys, 1077 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 12: four ninety four. Yes here, I'll read it out. My 1078 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 12: mom and I have been told that my brother's psychosis, 1079 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:05,120 Speaker 12: now full blown diagnosed schizophrenia, is most likely drug induced 1080 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 12: from his years of smoking weed. 1081 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 8: This drug isn't harmless. 1082 00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 12: No matter what our culture and screening people in comments 1083 00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:13,320 Speaker 12: sections tried to tell us. 1084 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:18,400 Speaker 2: Yes. So so it's so important, right because in the end, 1085 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 2: you know, The Times can write what it writes, and 1086 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 2: I can write about statistics and journal articles and stuff. 1087 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 2: But people react to individual stories. They react to the 1088 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 2: stories of people, and you know, especially when when it's personal, right, 1089 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 2: when it's this is my brother and look what happened 1090 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:35,600 Speaker 2: to him. And that's been viewed almost five million times 1091 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:40,080 Speaker 2: on x right now. And so unfortunately, that is what's 1092 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,400 Speaker 2: happening out there, is that people are seeing you know, 1093 00:55:43,560 --> 00:55:46,399 Speaker 2: family members or friends or friends of friends who've had 1094 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 2: real problems and they say, well, you know, this person 1095 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:52,920 Speaker 2: wasn't using cocaine or methamphetamine or you know, or mushrooms. 1096 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,399 Speaker 2: They were using They were using THHC. They were using 1097 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 2: these vapes and suddenly they wound up in the er 1098 00:55:57,560 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 2: and or maybe they have a diagnosis of polar disorder 1099 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 2: or schizophrenian, you know, and their lives are really wrecked 1100 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:06,640 Speaker 2: by this, and their families are getting messed up by 1101 00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:08,879 Speaker 2: it too, and I need to figure out I need 1102 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:12,760 Speaker 2: to learn about this drug. So so what the Times 1103 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 2: wrote was sort of the broader, you know, the bigger 1104 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:18,560 Speaker 2: picture question, which is this is happening against the background 1105 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:23,919 Speaker 2: of the legalization of cannabis. Charlie new right, Charlie new 1106 00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:30,719 Speaker 2: and so legalization. You know, many states have legalized in 1107 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:34,400 Speaker 2: the last ten to fifteen years. There's been a very aggressive, 1108 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:39,840 Speaker 2: very pushy, very effective, you know, for lack of a 1109 00:56:39,840 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 2: better word, propaganda campaign selling cannabis and THC as medicine. 1110 00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 2: It's not medicine. If we're going to legalize it on 1111 00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 2: any basis, it's got to be as a recreational intoxicant 1112 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,760 Speaker 2: that's gotten downsides, and that needs to be regulated carefully. 1113 00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 2: But that's not how the industry got people legalized. They 1114 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:59,000 Speaker 2: got people legalized by telling them this is medicine, and 1115 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 2: if you have seizures, it's good for you, and if 1116 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,319 Speaker 2: you're you know, if you have cancer, it's good for you. 1117 00:57:03,360 --> 00:57:05,920 Speaker 2: And it's going to keep people away from opioids. All 1118 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 2: this stuff, most of which has essentially no basis in science. 1119 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 2: There's a couple of things where there's so many evidence 1120 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:14,200 Speaker 2: that canvas and say, I. 1121 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 8: Was just thinking, yeah, I was just thinking. 1122 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 12: I remember I remember being online kind of in that 1123 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 12: two thousand and two, two thousand and eight, you know, 1124 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 12: that early Internet window, and it felt like weed was 1125 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 12: coming up all the time online. There was this huge 1126 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 12: consensus among young people except for me, where they were saying, oh, 1127 00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 12: marijuana is basically harmless. 1128 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 8: It was like a whole spiel. 1129 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,280 Speaker 12: It was only ever banned because racist lawmakers in the 1130 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,760 Speaker 12: twenties had like a moral panic about Mexicans bringing this 1131 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 12: drug over the border. And yeah, as you said, it 1132 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 12: was medicine, it would cure cancer. It basically was like 1133 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,720 Speaker 12: a super drug if anything. And yeah, and the New 1134 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 12: York Times it says in this article here. In our editorials, 1135 00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,800 Speaker 12: we described marijuana addiction as relatively minor problems. Many went 1136 00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 12: further and claimed marijuana was a harmless drug that might 1137 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 12: even bring net health benefits, and we said that legalization 1138 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 12: might not lead to greater use. 1139 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 8: And the number they have here is insane. 1140 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 12: It went from about one million daily users in nineteen 1141 00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:20,120 Speaker 12: ninety two to more than eighteen million daily users today. 1142 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:23,520 Speaker 2: So the thing about canvas is actually more addictive than alcohol. 1143 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 2: Can soundly more if you look at the number of 1144 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,240 Speaker 2: people who use compared to the total number of the 1145 00:58:28,320 --> 00:58:30,600 Speaker 2: number of people who use daily, let's say, compared to 1146 00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 2: the total number of users. Okay, there's about one hundred 1147 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,840 Speaker 2: million adults in the US who use alcohol on a 1148 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 2: regular basis, about half the population, a little bit more 1149 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 2: than half, okay, so maybe a little bit more than 1150 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:45,680 Speaker 2: one hundred million. Of those people, fewer than twenty million 1151 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:49,600 Speaker 2: drink every day, okay, based on the studies. And most 1152 00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 2: of those people aren't drinking all day every day. If 1153 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:55,120 Speaker 2: they do, we call them alcoholics. We know they have 1154 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,360 Speaker 2: a problem. They know it. They have a problem. When 1155 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 2: it comes to cannabis, there are more more people using 1156 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 2: every day than use alcohol. Every day, even though the 1157 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 2: total number of cannabis users are much smaller than the 1158 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:11,040 Speaker 2: total number of alcohol users. And those people, those cannabis users, 1159 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 2: when they're using every day, they are waking and baking 1160 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 2: for the most part, they are not doing this. I'm 1161 00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 2: gonna have like one hit at I mean, there's some 1162 00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 2: people who do, but I might have one hit at 1163 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:21,800 Speaker 2: night and I'm gonna go to sleep. No, this is 1164 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 2: this is this is a major part of my life. 1165 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 2: I wake up to this. I schedule my life around 1166 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,000 Speaker 2: my you know, my vape breaks I made. You know, 1167 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 2: maybe I don't have a girlfriend anymore because I decided 1168 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,560 Speaker 2: I liked cannabis more than having a girlfriend. You know, 1169 00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 2: maybe I just hang out playing video games and getting 1170 00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,800 Speaker 2: high all the time. That is now you know, your 1171 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 2: your viewers, your viewers. No, that's a typical pattern. 1172 00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1173 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 11: Well, and Alex, you're kind of zeroing in on the 1174 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 11: young male cohort when you talking about video games, vaping 1175 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 11: and this team. This actually tends from what I'm gathering online, 1176 00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 11: this young male super high to of THHC developing brains 1177 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 11: leading to schizophrenia. This actually, to me is one of 1178 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:11,880 Speaker 11: the more terrifying aspects of increased pot usage and us 1179 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 11: normalizing it, and us sort of deifying the drugs like 1180 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 11: the only drug in the universe that doesn't have any 1181 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:22,960 Speaker 11: side effects. Young men seem to be particularly vulnerable to schizophrenia. 1182 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 5: Let's go ahead and play this cut. 1183 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 11: We actually have a cut here from Brett Cooper talking 1184 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 11: about it four ninety five. 1185 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 17: My mom and I have been told that my brother psychosis, 1186 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 17: now full blown diagnosed schizophrenia is most likely drug induced 1187 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 17: from his years of smoking weed. This drug isn't harmless, 1188 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:39,640 Speaker 17: no matter what our culture and screaming people in comment 1189 01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 17: sections tried to tell us. The story is that my 1190 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 17: brother Reid, who was twelve years older than me, he 1191 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 17: became a pothead, I would say late and high squire 1192 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 17: to this. He never showed any signs of mental illness. 1193 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 17: He never showed any signs of psychosis. But for the 1194 01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 17: last decade, my brother Reid has been in and out 1195 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,240 Speaker 17: of psychiatric facilities. He has been on and off the 1196 01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 17: streets and say, it's like California and Idaho and Dennis. 1197 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 17: He's been all over the country. This is what my 1198 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:04,560 Speaker 17: family has been dealing with for a decade. My brother 1199 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 17: Reid is now a diagnosed schizophrenic and he is mute 1200 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 17: as it stands right now. Currently he is unable to 1201 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 17: participate in society unless he is medicated. 1202 01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 11: So we only had thirty seconds here, Alex, but that 1203 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:21,960 Speaker 11: the young men hit thirty seconds. 1204 01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 2: So listen, men have a higher rate of schizophrenia than women. 1205 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:30,520 Speaker 2: They're more prone to severe mental illness than women. And 1206 01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 2: as we all know, as Charlie talked about all the time, 1207 01:01:33,080 --> 01:01:35,640 Speaker 2: young men are having a hard time in society today 1208 01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 2: and it's understandable that some of them turn to this drug. 1209 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,040 Speaker 2: But it doesn't make their problems better, it makes them worse. 1210 01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,160 Speaker 2: And I just hope that they know they're being sold 1211 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 2: a bill of goods here by the drug legalizers, by 1212 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,960 Speaker 2: the cannabis industry. They really should try not to use this. 1213 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:52,480 Speaker 2: It's not a good drug for them. 1214 01:01:54,080 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 5: We'll be right back more without experiencing. All right, welcome back. 1215 01:02:11,080 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 11: We're talking about weed, how to drop out drug, and 1216 01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 11: it's such an important topic with alexperience.

Okay, and you the data on this when 1286 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to tell your children, it was twenty nineteen 1287 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 2: and I was able to draw on twenty years of 1288 01:05:27,360 --> 01:05:31,760 Speaker 2: data showing the sort of the harmful links between cannabis 1289 01:05:31,760 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 2: and severe mental illness. And that's counting the links between cannabis, 1290 01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 2: and let's say, you know, sort of bad life outcomes 1291 01:05:38,080 --> 01:05:40,880 Speaker 2: because you just don't achieve very much because you're you're 1292 01:05:40,920 --> 01:05:43,560 Speaker 2: smoking every day and you're not working very hard, and 1293 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:46,000 Speaker 2: your life is just sort of passing you by. I'm 1294 01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 2: talking about the really severe mental illness outcomes and frankly 1295 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:51,520 Speaker 2: the downstream violence from that, which is an issue we 1296 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:53,280 Speaker 2: don't even have to begin to talk about. We have 1297 01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 2: so much else to talk about. But people the Times, 1298 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:59,720 Speaker 2: people at the Washington Post, people at the Atlantic, all 1299 01:05:59,760 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 2: these places that think they're so smart. They didn't look 1300 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:05,320 Speaker 2: at the data, and they just told themselves over and 1301 01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,120 Speaker 2: over again, well, this is just being used to put 1302 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:10,400 Speaker 2: black men in prison. I mean, it was. It was nonsense. Okay, 1303 01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:13,640 Speaker 2: it was nonsense in twenty nineteen. It was nonsense even 1304 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:16,160 Speaker 2: in two thousand and nine. It hadn't been true for 1305 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 2: a really long time. Let me tell you one quick 1306 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,800 Speaker 2: thing that I discovered when I was writing to tell 1307 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 2: your children, which was people, as I think Andrews said, 1308 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 2: you know, they always said, well, we've got bannedeen in 1309 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 2: the nineteen twenties and thirties, because there was a perception 1310 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 2: that it was a Mexican drug that it was a 1311 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:36,080 Speaker 2: drug that was being brought up from Mexico. There is 1312 01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 2: some truth in that. What people don't tell you, what 1313 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 2: they didn't ever know, all these supposedly smart people, is 1314 01:06:42,200 --> 01:06:47,840 Speaker 2: that actually banned cannabis first because Mexicans saw what it 1315 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 2: was doing to their culture and country and they didn't 1316 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 2: like it. So whenever this drug has become widely used, 1317 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 2: whether it's in India, whether it's in Mexico, whether it's 1318 01:06:56,800 --> 01:07:00,800 Speaker 2: an African and North African countries, eventually is a backlash 1319 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 2: to what it does to people. And the fact that 1320 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 2: we thought we could rewrite the rules on this, that 1321 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 2: a bunch of nice liberals who basically had smoked pot 1322 01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:12,320 Speaker 2: a few times in college, thought they could totally rewrite 1323 01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 2: history in human biology and legalize this and there'd be 1324 01:07:15,560 --> 01:07:19,440 Speaker 2: no consequences just tells you once again what a bubble 1325 01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:23,480 Speaker 2: the left is living here. And now, yeah, you know 1326 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:26,040 Speaker 2: some of these people, what's happened is they've seen their 1327 01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:30,200 Speaker 2: kids get completely screwed up on high potency cannabis and 1328 01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:33,440 Speaker 2: THAC or their friends, and now they realize the truth. 1329 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 11: I think here, let's do like a little rapid fire 1330 01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:40,440 Speaker 11: question and answer. Here is weed a gateway drug. 1331 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 5: Yes yes or no? 1332 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:43,360 Speaker 18: Yes? 1333 01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 2: Yes? 1334 01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:46,400 Speaker 5: What what? 1335 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 11: What is the rate of schizophrenia do we know? Especially 1336 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 11: in young men that are high drug users. 1337 01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:54,640 Speaker 6: So the base rate is about one percent. 1338 01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 2: So one reason this has been able to happen is 1339 01:07:57,800 --> 01:08:02,640 Speaker 2: that let's say, heavy canomy shoes triples the base rate. Okay, Eve, 1340 01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:05,720 Speaker 2: Not every young man is using. So even if let's 1341 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 2: say thirty percent of young men are using in a 1342 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 2: dangerous way, that would not result in such a huge 1343 01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:14,160 Speaker 2: number that it would be immediately obvious. Even though this 1344 01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:17,000 Speaker 2: is a really severe illness, it becomes obvious over time. 1345 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 2: But what I say, and I say this with confidence now, 1346 01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:23,719 Speaker 2: is that there are probably hundreds of thousands of young people, 1347 01:08:23,800 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 2: mostly men but some women in the United States and 1348 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 2: Canada who becomes severely mentally ill as a result of 1349 01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:32,600 Speaker 2: canneb's use. Who wouldn't have been hundreds of thousands of 1350 01:08:32,640 --> 01:08:35,280 Speaker 2: lives ruined, hundreds of thousands of families. Because what you 1351 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 2: heard with Brett is this destroys families, right. It doesn't 1352 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 2: just destroy one person. When you're a family member, the 1353 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:45,759 Speaker 2: brother or sister, I mean, God forbid you, the child, 1354 01:08:45,800 --> 01:08:49,439 Speaker 2: but brother, sister, parent of somebody with really severe mental illness. 1355 01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 2: Your life is misery. 1356 01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 8: I have a couple, Alex. 1357 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 12: So, even if you don't get psychosis, if you're using 1358 01:08:56,760 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 12: weed nearly daily from age sixteen, how bad of an 1359 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,000 Speaker 12: impact is that going to have on your cognitive baseline? 1360 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 8: How many IQ points are you going to lose? 1361 01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 2: So really good question. I don't think there's a simple number. 1362 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:13,160 Speaker 2: It's bad for memory, it's bad for motivation, it's bad 1363 01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 2: for intelligence. 1364 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:15,400 Speaker 6: But I wouldn't be comfortable. 1365 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 2: Saying you know, ten points, twenty points. I mean, clearly, 1366 01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 2: most people who use are many. Many people who use 1367 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:25,200 Speaker 2: heavily find their lives disrupted by this. In the same 1368 01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:27,400 Speaker 2: way if you're an alcoholic, your life is going to 1369 01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 2: be disrupted. 1370 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:32,759 Speaker 5: I've got another question. 1371 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:38,400 Speaker 11: Where weed has been legalized, have the outcomes been Has 1372 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 11: there been what you touched on violence? 1373 01:09:40,200 --> 01:09:43,599 Speaker 5: Have we seen rises in violence? Crime? Criminality? Thirty seconds? 1374 01:09:44,360 --> 01:09:46,559 Speaker 2: So why didn't they tell your children? There was evidence 1375 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 2: that in the states that had legalized early there was 1376 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:52,760 Speaker 2: a rise in sort of in violence, basically essentially in 1377 01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:56,759 Speaker 2: severe violence. Now, nationally we've been on a down trend 1378 01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:00,679 Speaker 2: in terms of violence. Obviously, cannabis psycho this is only 1379 01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:02,519 Speaker 2: one component of violence. 1380 01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:02,760 Speaker 1: Right. 1381 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:06,519 Speaker 2: There are many, many different components of what make people violent, 1382 01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 2: whether you know how we treat people who are you know, 1383 01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,400 Speaker 2: do we incarcerate people for a long time? Obviously that 1384 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,320 Speaker 2: gets them off the streets. Are the cops getting better 1385 01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:18,639 Speaker 2: at solving gun primes because they know they have more surveillance. 1386 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:22,080 Speaker 2: There's many things, but there was evidence in twenty nineteen 1387 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:22,519 Speaker 2: of that. 1388 01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:26,639 Speaker 5: Alex Barens and check them out.

The Trump administration is drawing down its ICE 1392 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:46,080 Speaker 7: anti immigration operation in the Minneapolis area. 1393 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:46,599 Speaker 2: Borders. 1394 01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 7: Our Tom Holman made the announcement this morning, leading many 1395 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:52,640 Speaker 7: to question whether the administration is backing down due to 1396 01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:56,000 Speaker 7: public pressure and losing the narrative battle on the way 1397 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:57,599 Speaker 7: the operation is being handled. 1398 01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:02,000 Speaker 9: But also say we are backing down from immigration enforcement 1399 01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 9: or the promise of mass deportations, you are simply wrong. 1400 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:10,120 Speaker 9: Look at the data record number of arrested deportations under 1401 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,120 Speaker 9: President Trump's first year, and we'll. 1402 01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 2: Continue that effort. 1403 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 9: Prioritizing public safety threats and national security threast doesn't mean 1404 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 9: we'll forget about everybody else. 1405 01:11:21,160 --> 01:11:23,080 Speaker 2: We will take action on everybody else. 1406 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 7: Holman says while the operation is drawing down, he plans 1407 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 7: to remain in Minnesota to oversee the continuing operation there. Meantime, 1408 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:35,679 Speaker 7: the picture we're getting ready to show you is about 1409 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:38,759 Speaker 7: the only evidence you'll find of Wednesday's meeting between President 1410 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 7: Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin. 1411 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:41,519 Speaker 4: Net and Yahoo. 1412 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,280 Speaker 7: The White House sat down was an en core of 1413 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:46,479 Speaker 7: net in Yahoo's meeting with Secretary of State Mark or 1414 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,559 Speaker 7: Rubio and the US delegation to Israel, taking the true 1415 01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 7: Social forty seven described the meeting as good, but also 1416 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:57,120 Speaker 7: noted that nothing definitive was reached, other than that President 1417 01:11:57,200 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 7: Trump himself insisted that negotiations with the Ron continue this 1418 01:12:02,000 --> 01:12:04,639 Speaker 7: in hopes of reaching a deal.

Attorney General Pam Bondi's impassionate 1422 01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:19,879 Speaker 7: and at times contentious testimony before the House Judiciary Committee 1423 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:24,000 Speaker 7: on Wednesday as continuing to make headlines.

She was 1426 01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:36,160 Speaker 7: also accused of weaponizing the Department of Justice. Bondi defended herself, though, 1427 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:40,160 Speaker 7: while simultaneously turning the table on Democrat lawmakers for what 1428 01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:43,880 Speaker 7: she described as their failures and the refusal to focus 1429 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:47,679 Speaker 7: on what voters really want. General Bondi says, the left's 1430 01:12:47,760 --> 01:12:50,360 Speaker 7: tactics are meant to distract from all the good work 1431 01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:56,840 Speaker 7: the administration is doing. 1432 01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:12,800 Speaker 10: The hardest working radio show in the business. 1433 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:15,800 Speaker 11: That Charlie Kirkshaw all Right twenty twenty six marks two 1434 01:13:15,880 --> 01:13:19,839 Speaker 11: hundred and fifty years of America and conversations around American 1435 01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 11: culture will be at the front, at front and center 1436 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 11: all year long, as they should be.

And I thought you guys did a 1477 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,519 Speaker 11: great job of honoring him and honoring his legacies. So 1478 01:15:24,920 --> 01:15:27,320 Speaker 11: and you had you had liberals on stage. I mean, 1479 01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:28,639 Speaker 11: you guys really run the gamut. 1480 01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 5: You really. 1481 01:15:29,720 --> 01:15:33,960 Speaker 11: We had some spirited debates about trans and it was 1482 01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,439 Speaker 11: it was it was good. It was really a lemon 1483 01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 11: and it was he a journalist or an activist, It 1484 01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 11: was a it was a really good collision of ideas. 1485 01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:44,080 Speaker 11: All right, Tom, I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna read 1486 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:48,640 Speaker 11: something verbatim from a very prominent left wing journalist that 1487 01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:51,200 Speaker 11: I was texting with, and this is everybody would know 1488 01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:52,599 Speaker 11: the name of I said it, but I'm gonna leave 1489 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 11: the anonymous just for the sake of the relationship. Says 1490 01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,800 Speaker 11: there's absolutely no proof of any significant illegal voting. 1491 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 5: He's talking about the Save Act. 1492 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:05,040 Speaker 11: You ran a campaign based on fear, demagogue and exaggeration 1493 01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:08,439 Speaker 11: of them. It worked until now. Now not only do 1494 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:10,720 Speaker 11: you have a majority of the country against the way 1495 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:13,680 Speaker 11: you're enforcing laws, but affordability has been revealed to not 1496 01:16:13,720 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 11: be because of legal entrance. And you guys have a 1497 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 11: real problem heading into the midterms. So unless you do 1498 01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:24,759 Speaker 11: something about healthcare costs, you're screwed, basically. And Trump's Trump RX. 1499 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,120 Speaker 5: Ain't it? Agree or disagree? 1500 01:16:29,880 --> 01:16:33,599 Speaker 15: I agree with some parts of it, disagree with others. 1501 01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:36,400 Speaker 15: I mean, first of all, the Save Act. The majority 1502 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,880 Speaker 15: of the country is in favor of that, you know, 1503 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 15: across the board, even I think a majority of Democrats 1504 01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 15: are in favor of certainly African American voters, Hispanics, Republicans, independence. 1505 01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:48,840 Speaker 4: Think it's kind of common sense that you should have 1506 01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:49,960 Speaker 4: voter ID laws. 1507 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:55,160 Speaker 15: So is affordability a big issue? Yes, it is a 1508 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:55,839 Speaker 15: big issue. 1509 01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:57,840 Speaker 4: Is Trump. 1510 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 15: You know, he's got some work to do. Republicans do 1511 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:02,960 Speaker 15: have some work to do on this issue. So he's 1512 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 15: Trump is at forty two point one percent in our 1513 01:17:05,439 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 15: overall Roal Clear Politics average on the economies at forty. 1514 01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:11,960 Speaker 4: On inflation, he's at thirty six. So to the extent 1515 01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 4: that those continue to be. 1516 01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,639 Speaker 15: Issues that are of primary concernative voters, and most polls 1517 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:20,800 Speaker 15: suggest that they are. I think the administration of the 1518 01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:22,640 Speaker 15: Republican Party has some work to do. Do I think 1519 01:17:22,680 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 15: trump RX is an answer, it could be. I think 1520 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:31,320 Speaker 15: the saving accounts could be. My take on the economy 1521 01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,679 Speaker 15: as far as Trump is concerned, is that you know, 1522 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:37,880 Speaker 15: he's got good He's got a story to tell. There 1523 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:39,680 Speaker 15: are plenty of good numbers when you talk about the 1524 01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:41,559 Speaker 15: Dow and all that. The problem that he has as 1525 01:17:41,600 --> 01:17:44,800 Speaker 15: a perception problem because people think the economy sucks, even. 1526 01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 4: Though there are aspects of the economy that are really good. 1527 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:48,680 Speaker 15: But when Trump goes out there and says this is 1528 01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:51,880 Speaker 15: the best economy in the world and voters don't think that, 1529 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:55,439 Speaker 15: then he looks like he's gas lighting, and there is 1530 01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:58,960 Speaker 15: this discrepancy between what their perception is and what Trump 1531 01:17:59,040 --> 01:17:59,920 Speaker 15: is telling them. 1532 01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:03,800 Speaker 4: The reality is and so that's really that's an issue 1533 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,760 Speaker 4: for him to go out and prove to the American. 1534 01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:09,160 Speaker 15: People that he has focused on this issue. It's more 1535 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:12,160 Speaker 15: of an almost an empathy type question to say, instead 1536 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:14,960 Speaker 15: of saying affordability as a hoax, or instead of focusing 1537 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:19,160 Speaker 15: on taking over Greenland, for example, which occupied like seven 1538 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:22,559 Speaker 15: days of the media landscape and all the oxygen right 1539 01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 15: for him to be doing these events. If you remember 1540 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 15: ACKed his first term, he was doing events at the 1541 01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 15: White House with like truckers and welders. 1542 01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 4: And you know, he had CEOs, he had everybody in there. 1543 01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:34,080 Speaker 4: It was all about the economy. 1544 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:38,000 Speaker 15: And he's not doing that kind of thing yet he'll 1545 01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:40,960 Speaker 15: do an event. He did one speech on the economy 1546 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:42,920 Speaker 15: at the end of last year in Detroit, and that 1547 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 15: kind of got overshadowed by the fact that he flipped 1548 01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:47,559 Speaker 15: some guy off and had this thing with this factory 1549 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 15: floor worker. He did another event recently in Iowa, which 1550 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:54,479 Speaker 15: was supposed to be focused all on the economy, and 1551 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:56,960 Speaker 15: then went out like two hours afterwards and tweeted that 1552 01:18:57,160 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 15: he's got the fleet, you know, steaming toward Iran, and 1553 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,120 Speaker 15: that that became the headline. So they've got to do 1554 01:19:02,160 --> 01:19:05,439 Speaker 15: a better job. In my opinion, the administration has to 1555 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:08,240 Speaker 15: do a better job of having events and focusing on 1556 01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:09,960 Speaker 15: the economy and then sort of. 1557 01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:12,720 Speaker 4: Letting the staying out of their own way. 1558 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,799 Speaker 15: So that the people the perception out there changes on 1559 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:16,960 Speaker 15: how the economy is doing. 1560 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:20,679 Speaker 12: Yeah, Tom, That's what I find myself thinking and asking 1561 01:19:20,880 --> 01:19:25,759 Speaker 12: on the affordability issue. On the economy issue, there's sometimes 1562 01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:27,439 Speaker 12: we all have this debate. Are we in a vibe 1563 01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:30,240 Speaker 12: session where the idea is people have gotten used to 1564 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:33,360 Speaker 12: the idea that they just say affordability is their go 1565 01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 12: to acceptable expression for things just don't always feel awesome. 1566 01:19:38,000 --> 01:19:40,600 Speaker 12: And I guess the part that goes with that is 1567 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:46,200 Speaker 12: does Trump doing events meaningfully help on this question? How 1568 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:49,919 Speaker 12: do you actually imprint the idea, Oh, actually the economy 1569 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:53,639 Speaker 12: is doing well or at least this administration is improving things. 1570 01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 12: I guess I don't see the obvious link between him 1571 01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 12: doing an event at the White House and better poll 1572 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:01,200 Speaker 12: numbers necessarily. 1573 01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:03,240 Speaker 4: It's it's more of a question. You know. 1574 01:20:03,360 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 15: He's also trailing on this on this question when when 1575 01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:09,519 Speaker 15: polsters ask does the president care about people like me? 1576 01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:13,559 Speaker 4: Right? Does he have is he focused on my concerns? 1577 01:20:13,560 --> 01:20:15,040 Speaker 4: And that that's more than anything. 1578 01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:17,479 Speaker 15: It's like, it's not about the policy in particular, like 1579 01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:21,400 Speaker 15: these Trump savings accounts, right, Is that going to have 1580 01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:23,200 Speaker 15: any short term impact on the midterms? 1581 01:20:23,280 --> 01:20:25,320 Speaker 4: Is that really going to change people? No, But it 1582 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,479 Speaker 4: was an event where I think, you. 1583 01:20:28,439 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 15: Know, the focus was on, hey, this is how we 1584 01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:35,240 Speaker 15: help the younger generation, the next generation actually, you know, 1585 01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:37,559 Speaker 15: invest and save and get ahead of the game. 1586 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 4: I mean, he's fighting. 1587 01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:42,760 Speaker 15: The problem that he's fighting right now is you know, 1588 01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:45,360 Speaker 15: he can say, well, inflation is down. Okay, it's down, 1589 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:48,639 Speaker 15: but we just went through five years where we had 1590 01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:53,600 Speaker 15: you know, mid to high single digit inflation, which compounded 1591 01:20:53,680 --> 01:20:57,080 Speaker 15: and so people, you know, things are thirty or forty 1592 01:20:57,120 --> 01:20:58,679 Speaker 15: percent more than they used to be. And we're talking 1593 01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:02,720 Speaker 15: about healthcare and you know, college tuition and groceries and 1594 01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:03,320 Speaker 15: all those things. 1595 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 4: And while Trumpet point in the sort of short term, well, 1596 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 4: you know. 1597 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:08,760 Speaker 15: The price of eggs are down, people are still not 1598 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 15: feel that's why they feel that economy sucks is because 1599 01:21:10,880 --> 01:21:13,839 Speaker 15: they've been battered for four or five years with inflation 1600 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 15: that has eroded their buying power. And so I think 1601 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:18,120 Speaker 15: one of the things that he needs to focus on 1602 01:21:18,479 --> 01:21:21,880 Speaker 15: from a policy perspective that would help him is to 1603 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:25,839 Speaker 15: tell people and impress upon people that wages are rising 1604 01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:28,639 Speaker 15: faster than inflation. It is all about wages. If inflation's 1605 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:32,519 Speaker 15: at two percent, four percent, but wages are growing at 1606 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,080 Speaker 15: four or eight percent, people are going to feel like 1607 01:21:35,160 --> 01:21:37,559 Speaker 15: they are getting some buying power back. They are, they're 1608 01:21:37,680 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 15: doing better in this economy, and his policies have helped 1609 01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:42,680 Speaker 15: wage growth. 1610 01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:44,439 Speaker 4: And so I think that's That's another area. 1611 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:47,280 Speaker 15: But again it comes down to people looking at their 1612 01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:48,960 Speaker 15: TV screens and oh, Trump's. 1613 01:21:48,560 --> 01:21:50,519 Speaker 4: Talking about the price of this or the price of that. 1614 01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:51,759 Speaker 4: Trump has focused on the comomy. 1615 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:54,240 Speaker 15: He's focused on the things that I care about, that 1616 01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:56,040 Speaker 15: we care about in my family and that we're talking 1617 01:21:56,080 --> 01:21:59,200 Speaker 15: about on the kitchen table. He's not off, you know, 1618 01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:04,880 Speaker 15: focused on stuff going on overseas or Venezuela or even 1619 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:07,559 Speaker 15: you know, building a new wing on the White House. 1620 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 15: I mean, those kind of things are just they're catenet 1621 01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:14,400 Speaker 15: for the media and they help shift the issue, you know, 1622 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:17,200 Speaker 15: away from where I think the public wants it to 1623 01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:18,320 Speaker 15: be and where Trump needs it to be. 1624 01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 11: Tom So, I'm struggling, especially in this economic question here. 1625 01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,439 Speaker 11: We only got about two minutes left here but so 1626 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:29,599 Speaker 11: throw up four fifty six. This is a question asked, 1627 01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 11: you know, are you better off today than you were 1628 01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:35,280 Speaker 11: four years ago? Forty eight percent say yes, forty four 1629 01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 11: percent say no. But that yes number is about twenty 1630 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:42,479 Speaker 11: points twenty twenty five points higher than it was in 1631 01:22:42,680 --> 01:22:46,400 Speaker 11: November I believe, of twenty twenty four. So it's going 1632 01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,040 Speaker 11: in the right direction. There's another image here five oh two. 1633 01:22:49,120 --> 01:22:52,880 Speaker 11: This is from Marquette. It says family financial situation living 1634 01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 11: comfortably is at forty percent, just getting by forty five percent, 1635 01:22:56,960 --> 01:23:01,320 Speaker 11: but that's up nine points from November of twenty twenty five. 1636 01:23:01,600 --> 01:23:03,400 Speaker 5: So you see. So it's almost like you're getting two 1637 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:04,080 Speaker 5: sets of data. 1638 01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 11: It's like if you ask the question one way, people 1639 01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:09,519 Speaker 11: are positive. If you ask it another way, it's almost 1640 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:12,440 Speaker 11: like the Biden year hangover. And maybe this cognitive dissonance 1641 01:23:13,120 --> 01:23:16,680 Speaker 11: with what Trump is saying. They just can't get they 1642 01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:19,639 Speaker 11: can't connect with it. But what's true here? Because I'm 1643 01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 11: seeing positives, I'm seeing negatives? 1644 01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:25,360 Speaker 15: Yeah, this is you know, people can make the data 1645 01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,639 Speaker 15: say sort of whatever it wants. You could find this stuff. 1646 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 15: I think the economy is getting better. I think people 1647 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:35,680 Speaker 15: are feeling a little bit better. About the way things 1648 01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 15: are going. But Trump has about you know, the Republicans 1649 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 15: have until about June, and basically by that point, if 1650 01:23:43,720 --> 01:23:46,759 Speaker 15: anything that happens after that won't accrue to their benefit, 1651 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:50,120 Speaker 15: probably in the midterms. The other thing about these polls, too, Andrew, 1652 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:52,920 Speaker 15: is you know, you really do need to go in 1653 01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 15: and look at the sort. 1654 01:23:55,400 --> 01:23:58,400 Speaker 4: Of partisan splits here, because you know, there's this. 1655 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,040 Speaker 15: Question if you go back and look, how's the economy 1656 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:04,840 Speaker 15: doing well. When Joe Biden was in office, Democrats seventy 1657 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 15: five percent of Democrats that the economy is great and 1658 01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:08,840 Speaker 15: five percent of Republicans said it was great. 1659 01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:11,080 Speaker 4: You know, Republicans thought the economy suck, and. 1660 01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:13,080 Speaker 15: The minute Trump gets in office, that number. 1661 01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,840 Speaker 4: Flips, right. It's just a part of some sort of 1662 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 4: lizard brain thing. 1663 01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:20,040 Speaker 15: And so Democrats are even if they feel the economy 1664 01:24:20,120 --> 01:24:21,840 Speaker 15: is getting better, they're certainly not giving Trump with the 1665 01:24:21,840 --> 01:24:24,799 Speaker 15: Republicans credit for it. And Republicans probably feel the economy 1666 01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:27,080 Speaker 15: is pretty good and they like and support Trump, but 1667 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,559 Speaker 15: focus on independence like they're the ones and again it's 1668 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,720 Speaker 15: a fifteen or twenty percent part of the electorate, but 1669 01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:37,880 Speaker 15: they're the ones who truly do move back and forth 1670 01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 15: based on what they see in their in their in 1671 01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:41,679 Speaker 15: their daily lives, and they're going to be an important 1672 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:44,000 Speaker 15: part of the midterms in November as well. 1673 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:48,320 Speaker 11: Tom Bevian, co founder and president of Real Clear Politics.

More 1768 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:20,519 Speaker 12: I'd say five or six people send us the identical 1769 01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 12: take that that man. They believe was demon possessed in 1770 01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:26,920 Speaker 12: some way. He certainly gave off that vibe, and it's 1771 01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:30,320 Speaker 12: very understandable, you know, whether he literally was or not. 1772 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:33,080 Speaker 12: Why that's a useful way to look at it, that 1773 01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:40,000 Speaker 12: when you allow certain mind virus, certain brain worms into yourself, 1774 01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:42,599 Speaker 12: and if you indulge them endlessly, that can really take 1775 01:29:43,040 --> 01:29:46,120 Speaker 12: over you as a person. That's why addiction is so dangerous. 1776 01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:49,719 Speaker 12: It's why Charlie would talk about this, why he would 1777 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:53,479 Speaker 12: try to listen to music that elevates the spirit, holy music, 1778 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,400 Speaker 12: Why you avoid certain things because we are so heavily 1779 01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:59,160 Speaker 12: influenced by what we choose to marinate in and what 1780 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:01,840 Speaker 12: we choose to be a It's why the friends you 1781 01:30:01,920 --> 01:30:05,000 Speaker 12: have matter.

We got 1786 01:30:16,960 --> 01:30:20,519 Speaker 12: another email I believe, I believe she'd contacted us before 1787 01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:22,160 Speaker 12: from one I don't want to say the name, but 1788 01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:26,400 Speaker 12: she has a brother who he's basically been in and 1789 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 12: out of homelessness due to marijuana use that shattered his 1790 01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:37,160 Speaker 12: mental health. And we have another one. Gary says, people 1791 01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:39,719 Speaker 12: are these are all legal because people are making money 1792 01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:41,920 Speaker 12: off of it, and I think Alex definitely drove that 1793 01:30:42,000 --> 01:30:42,599 Speaker 12: home for us. 1794 01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:47,200 Speaker 11: Yeah, we got one from Clarence saying, be honest, and 1795 01:30:47,240 --> 01:30:49,280 Speaker 11: I'm not trying to be stupid here, but marijuana kept 1796 01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:51,920 Speaker 11: me from drinking because I knew what drinking was about 1797 01:30:51,960 --> 01:30:55,000 Speaker 11: and it wasn't good for me. I would say to you, 1798 01:30:55,120 --> 01:30:58,920 Speaker 11: Clarence that just because it kept up drinking being you know, 1799 01:30:59,200 --> 01:31:01,120 Speaker 11: smoking a lot of pots, probably not good for you either. 1800 01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:01,599 Speaker 5: Right. 1801 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:04,240 Speaker 11: In the scriptures it says that you will be mastered 1802 01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:08,519 Speaker 11: by nothing, no addiction, and so everybody struggles with what 1803 01:31:08,560 --> 01:31:11,920 Speaker 11: they struggle with. But that's the goal, that's the north star. 1804 01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:13,679 Speaker 11: So just something to keep in mind. 1805 01:31:13,760 --> 01:31:16,960 Speaker 12: I would say the numbers reflect if you look at it, 1806 01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:20,760 Speaker 12: when you are hooked on one thing, the pattern is 1807 01:31:20,800 --> 01:31:22,679 Speaker 12: that it makes it easier for you to be hooked 1808 01:31:22,680 --> 01:31:25,360 Speaker 12: on other things, which is one reason making marijuana so 1809 01:31:25,400 --> 01:31:28,599 Speaker 12: widely available. With such a mistake, like for the people 1810 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:31,280 Speaker 12: at the bottom of society, it was like throwing one 1811 01:31:31,280 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 12: more problem onto another. So it's not that we have 1812 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 12: twenty million people who use weed, and then twenty million 1813 01:31:37,200 --> 01:31:40,240 Speaker 12: people who drink too much, and then another twenty million 1814 01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:43,559 Speaker 12: who gamble too much. It's often the same people doing 1815 01:31:43,560 --> 01:31:45,639 Speaker 12: all these things. They do too much weed, and they drink, 1816 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,800 Speaker 12: and they gamble away their money and they're hooked on 1817 01:31:48,960 --> 01:31:51,840 Speaker 12: they play too many video games, and they also are 1818 01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:56,040 Speaker 12: abusing prescription drugs. And that's one reason the health of 1819 01:31:56,439 --> 01:31:59,520 Speaker 12: a lot of the American underclass is just totally disintegrated. 1820 01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:02,040 Speaker 8: There dying which we pay for. 1821 01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:05,400 Speaker 12: Intact ten Yeah, and they're dying of ten different addictions. 1822 01:32:05,439 --> 01:32:07,400 Speaker 12: And it'd be bad enough. It would be bad enough 1823 01:32:07,439 --> 01:32:10,479 Speaker 12: if we just had people with drinking problems, for example. 1824 01:32:10,520 --> 01:32:13,120 Speaker 12: But if you have a drinking problem and you're abusing 1825 01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:15,840 Speaker 12: your pills and you're taking a bunch of weed, it's 1826 01:32:16,000 --> 01:32:18,200 Speaker 12: very bad for you. And we have to conquer these 1827 01:32:18,479 --> 01:32:21,559 Speaker 12: one at a time. But the easiest way to not 1828 01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:23,360 Speaker 12: fall into this trap is to just make sure you 1829 01:32:23,439 --> 01:32:25,479 Speaker 12: never set down that path in the first place. And 1830 01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:27,519 Speaker 12: that's why Charlie was such a great example. 1831 01:32:28,120 --> 01:32:30,320 Speaker 11: Well, you know what's interesting though, just looking at our emails, 1832 01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:31,919 Speaker 11: there's a lot of you that are a little skeptical 1833 01:32:31,960 --> 01:32:35,360 Speaker 11: about our weed take. Still, it's interesting Gary says, well, 1834 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:38,720 Speaker 11: cigarettes and alcohol kill you. Yes, yeah, yes, this is not. 1835 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:43,599 Speaker 11: This guy is a useful idiot, so that's interesting. Donald says, hey, 1836 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 11: folks love Yet the three things listed above are legal. 1837 01:32:46,760 --> 01:32:49,599 Speaker 5: Marijuana, alcohol, tobacco. Use at your own risk. 1838 01:32:49,720 --> 01:32:52,280 Speaker 11: They are all bad for you, and they are only 1839 01:32:52,360 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 11: legal because they make someone money. Drinking is bad, SIGs 1840 01:32:55,160 --> 01:32:56,280 Speaker 11: are bad, marijuana is bad. 1841 01:32:56,320 --> 01:32:56,880 Speaker 5: All legal. 1842 01:32:57,160 --> 01:33:00,680 Speaker 11: Blake final, A few moments here to you. You, what 1843 01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:04,320 Speaker 11: do you say about the libertarian argument of the conservative movement. 1844 01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:08,400 Speaker 12: You know, I understand the appeal, but we have to 1845 01:33:08,479 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 12: recognize like no one is an island, none of us is, 1846 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 12: you know, homo economicus. This like you know, this pure 1847 01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:18,479 Speaker 12: randy and superhero against the world. It's like I said, 1848 01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:22,880 Speaker 12: we're all shaped by what's around us. And also we 1849 01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:24,760 Speaker 12: are defined not just as Charlie would say. We're not 1850 01:33:24,840 --> 01:33:27,959 Speaker 12: just defined by our independence. We're defined by our burdens, 1851 01:33:27,960 --> 01:33:29,639 Speaker 12: our obligations, our duties. 1852 01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:30,840 Speaker 8: We should seek out duties. 1853 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,920 Speaker 12: That's why Charlie would advocate marriage children. You become a 1854 01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:38,240 Speaker 12: stronger person when you actually have responsibilities and duties to fulfill. 1855 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:41,880 Speaker 12: And all these addictions we push everywhere they are encouraging 1856 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:46,320 Speaker 12: people to abdicate their duties towards others, which are part 1857 01:33:46,400 --> 01:33:50,439 Speaker 12: of what make us fully human beings. We'll see all 1858 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:53,320 Speaker 12: of you guys tomorrow. Join the AMA. We love having 1859 01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:53,720 Speaker 12: all of you.
