00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,319

Speaker 4: All that and much more right now on Special Report.

12
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: And welcome into Special Report and Happy Friday to you.

13
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm Michelle Bachus alongside Bo Davidson, Emily Finn, and Kaylin

14
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: or Well. New today, the jury in the Daniel Penny

15
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: trial resumed deliberations today, with jurors initially saying that they're

16
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,399
Speaker 1: struggling to reach a verdict. However, the judge has ordered

17
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: them to keep deliberating, with a quote open mind breaking.

18
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: Just now, prosecutors Justice missed the manslaughter charge, which means

19
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: Penny is now one step closer to freedom.

20
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 5: That's right.

21
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 6: Penny, a marine veteran, has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter

22
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 6: and criminally negligent homicide and the May twenty twenty three

23
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 6: death of Jordan Neely. Their lawyers for Penny, they actually

24
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 6: argue that he was justified and protecting passengers from a

25
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 6: man who witnesses said, yell quote, somebody's going to die today.

26
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 6: I feel like these pretty justified on the Uptown F

27
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 6: train in New York.

28
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll continue to follow this. The Manhattan manhunt continues

29
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: as well today for the person that gunned down United

30
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Authorities on Thursday released images of

31
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: the suspect taken from a surveillance camera at the High

32
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: New York City hostel on the Upper West Side, where

33
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 1: it appears suspect shared the room with two other men.

34
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 7: Yeah.

35
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: Police have also recovered a water bottle and candy wrapper

36
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 2: from the crime scene, which they believe are linked to

37
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 2: the gunmen. Fingerprints and DNA tests of the items are ongoing,

38
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: according to law enforcement.

39
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 3: For more on this, let's head up to the host

40
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: of Rev's Breaking Point, David Zeer, who was in New

41
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 3: York City. David, what are you hearing on the ground

42
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 3: in New York on this case?

43
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 7: This assailant was really sloppy and he's gonna be caught

44
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 7: soon dropping candy wrappers. They got him on video. He

45
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 7: showed his face to flirt with the clerk in the store.

46
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 7: I mean, please, you know, but you know it's really crazy.

47
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 7: We call this a Tuesday or a Wednesday in New

48
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 7: York City, right because just another day I was in

49
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 7: there with Harry a couple months ago. We just were

50
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 7: at the Al Smith dinner there at that Hilton in

51
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 7: Midtown and I was in there with Harry from Real

52
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 7: America's Voice News two weeks ago, and three people got

53
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 7: stabbed on the corner near where we were. And listen,

54
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 7: this is the state of New York City.

55
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: Well, David's staying on New York City. New York City

56
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: Mayor Eric Adams suggests he may rejoin the Republican Party now.

57
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: Adams was previously a Republican from nineteen ninety seven to

58
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: two thousand and one.

59
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 4: Take a listen to what he said.

60
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 8: The party that's the most important for me is the

61
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 8: American Party.

62
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 7: I'm a part of the American Party. I love this country.

63
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 8: This is the home of the freedom, Land of the Braid.

64
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 8: My nineteen year old nephew died on the fields of Vietnam,

65
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 8: protecting with this city and this country represents, and that's

66
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 8: the party I'm going to.

67
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 7: Always be around.

68
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: And David it seems like he's jumping shift. This comes

69
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: as Adams is scheduling a meeting with Trump appointed Borders R.

70
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 1: Tom Hollman, are you ruling this move out or do

71
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: you think you could actually switch over back to the GOP.

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 7: Well, listen, it's very convenient timing considering Trump is replacing

73
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 7: the prosecuted Damian Williams with Jay Clayton, who's going after

74
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 7: Damian Williams, Democrat going after Adams for ten million dollars

75
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 7: in investigations donations where they might have bypassed the public

76
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 7: financing laws here. So how convenient for Mayor Adams. But

77
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 7: he originally became a Republican because he was fed up

78
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 7: with the Democrats Crime Bill Bill Clinton Joe Biden, the

79
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 7: crime Bill putting people in life prison terms for you know,

80
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 7: having a small around of amount of crack on them.

81
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 7: And then also other types of things like the Rockefeller

82
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 7: drug laws which were passed by Democrats and Republicans in

83
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 7: the New York State legislature, which were very harsh sentences

84
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 7: for you know, even first time drug possessions. So it's

85
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 7: very convenient for him now to do that. But even

86
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 7: Democrats have fed up with Mayor Adams over this. Robert

87
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 7: Holden in the Democrat in the New York City Council

88
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 7: came out against Adams, said you have to do something

89
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 7: about this crisis. But new tweets are resurfacing again from

90
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 7: Mayor Adams in twenty seventeen saying you're all welcome here

91
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 7: to New York. He caught this whole problem.

92
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 3: Well, he's been quoted multiple times leaning towards the right

93
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 3: rather than the left. In fact, Eric Adams defended Daniel

94
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,119
Speaker 3: Penny for protecting subway passengers and blasted the mainstream media

95
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 3: for their portrayal of Jordan Neely.

96
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 9: Take a listen now, were on a subway where we

97
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 9: hearing someone talking about hurting people, killing people. You have

98
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 9: someone on that subway who was responding doing what we

99
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 9: should have done as a city in the state of

100
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 9: having attle a mental health facility. Those passengers were afraid.

101
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 9: I'm hoping that the juries the jury will hear all

102
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 9: the facts. Based on all the facts that's laid out,

103
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 9: a jury of his peers would make the right decision.

104
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 3: Well, David Adams said that the media has portrayed this

105
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 3: as a young innocent child that was murdered. So does

106
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 3: Adams have a point on how the media has portrayed.

107
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 7: This, Yes, he does. And remember stopping frisser up under

108
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,840
Speaker 7: Mayor Adams, I think over six thousand this year. You know,

109
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 7: that was a very controversial policy that Leati put into place,

110
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 7: along with broken windows, and Mayor Bloomberg probably abused it.

111
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 7: But there are some good things about Mayor Adams. But

112
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 7: you know, he's also the head of one hundred black

113
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 7: members of law enforcement when he was a city cop,

114
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 7: and he came out and that was accused of reverse

115
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 7: racism going after white cops who shot black assailants who

116
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 7: are you know, acquitted on all charges going after them.

117
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 7: And you know he's demonstrated some racist behavior, saying he's

118
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 7: proud of his administration being all black, and so you know,

119
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 7: he plays both sides of the fence. But I am

120
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,559
Speaker 7: glad to see that Trump wins again because the Trump

121
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,520
Speaker 7: effect is in full effect in New York City. You know,

122
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 7: after all they put him through, he comes out on

123
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 7: top and he may have the final say to clean

124
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 7: up this immigration crisis, using maybe the prosecution and a

125
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 7: pardon of Mayor Adams as a wedge to get him

126
00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 7: to clean up the city. Fifty eight thousand illegal aliens

127
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 7: have criminal records in New York City. Rachel Morn's killer

128
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 7: may have stayed at the Roosevelt Hotel, owned by the

129
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 7: Pakistani government, leasing it back to the city with over

130
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 7: a thousand rooms. The city is a mess, and if

131
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 7: you look at the cover of the New York Post today,

132
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 7: there's somebody urinating on the train, There's people defecating in

133
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 7: the subway stations, there's people smoking crack on the cars.

134
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 7: The quality of life is down, and seventy one thousand

135
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 7: New Yorkers have been assaulted in the streets, where the

136
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 7: felony and misdemeanor souls and rapes are up twenty percent.

137
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 7: So it's a big mess. This is a chance for

138
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 7: Adams to actually maybe help New Yorkers.

139
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 4: So I got to ask David.

140
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: You know, we've we've heard the term rhino. Is it

141
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 3: possible that Adams could be a dino? Could be a

142
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 3: Democrat in name only and govern like republican?

143
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 4: Is that possible?

144
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: I don't think he wants to go down with the

145
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: sinking shit.

146
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 7: Well, remember even Juliani took the liberal line to become

147
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 7: mayor of New York City, and people accused him of, oh,

148
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 7: we're abandoning the conservative cause and all that. Listen, it's

149
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 7: New York City. There's eight and a half million people.

150
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 7: It's three to one, four to one Democrat in the

151
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 7: five boroughs over Republicans, so you know, and the New

152
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 7: York City Council there's only a handful of Republicans in there.

153
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 7: You got to play ball, right, So anything Adams does

154
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 7: to help clean up the quality of life for New Yorkers,

155
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 7: I give him high praise. And again, there's just something

156
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 7: magical about Trump changing their dynamic all over the country,

157
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 7: surpassing political parties.

158
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: You know, David, New York City was the place to

159
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: be back in the day, and then you saw the

160
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 1: influx of illegals coming in the sky high prices. There's

161
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: clearly a mental health crisis. You also have the drug

162
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: epidemic there in the city. I mean, is all this

163
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: just a recipe for disaster? What needs to be done?

164
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: As someone that lives there.

165
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 7: Well, so I have children who live in the city

166
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 7: in their thirties, and you know, I worry about their safety,

167
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 7: but you know, you listen, people still go out. Tourism

168
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 7: is still high in the city. It's the random, sporadic

169
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,720
Speaker 7: crime and the mental illness that's not being taken care of.

170
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 7: You know, cops have to play social worker. Cops are retiring,

171
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,199
Speaker 7: as we always cover on the network, at record rates,

172
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 7: going down to like twenty nine thousand officers from a

173
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,439
Speaker 7: higher fifty four thousand under Bernie Kerrick and Rudy Giuliani.

174
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 7: So you know, there are a lot of problems in

175
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 7: New York City, but they're fixable. They're definitely fixable. You

176
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 7: got to just enforce the law. Wrikers is down to

177
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 7: only a few thousand inmates. There were like thirty three

178
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 7: thousand people there under Juliani. We have to start putting

179
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 7: people in jail again, and we have to get rid

180
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 7: of the bailer room. And like sixteen and seventeen year

181
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 7: olds are committing a lot of crime in the city

182
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 7: and their records get expunged and they can't be held

183
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 7: on bail or get these charges that they deserve. It's

184
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 7: the same thing in every blue city across America pretty much,

185
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 7: and it's definitely fixable. We just need somebody with.

186
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: The guts to do David, real quick, why do you

187
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: think that so many sixteen and seventeen year olds are

188
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,200
Speaker 1: committing crimes right now city? Can you pinpoint it to

189
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: anything specific?

190
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 7: Breakdown of the moral fiber, no accountability for their actions

191
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 7: the Internet. I don't know. I could go on for

192
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 7: a long time, but definitely, I think COVID heard a

193
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,320
Speaker 7: lot of that. These kids were rummaging through the streets

194
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 7: at two three in the morning without any being held

195
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,080
Speaker 7: accountable for anything during the George Floyd riots, during the

196
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 7: COVID lockdowns, gang activity, and Trump and Juliani had community

197
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 7: policing in the neighborhood and that's another reason why Mayor

198
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 7: Adam switched to the GOP for that time too, because

199
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,600
Speaker 7: he wanted community pleaicing. He wanted safer neighborhoods for New

200
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 7: York City, So I will give him some credit for that.

201
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 3: Well, you mentioned, David, that it's about a three to

202
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 3: one ratio of Democrats Republicans in New York City. Do

203
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 3: you think that'll ever change? I mean, if you're a Democrat,

204
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 3: would you say, what have you ever done for me lately?

205
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 7: I don't know. I don't have high hopes that it's

206
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 7: going to change.

207
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: It has a Long Island though, so why couldn't it

208
00:10:58,800 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 3: happen in Manhattan.

209
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 7: Well, well, Long Island has a different economic demographic and

210
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 7: a different race demographic. A Staten Island is one of

211
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 7: the five boroughs. It has a Republican majority. And like

212
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 7: we saw, Lee Zelden took Staten Island and his gubernatorial race.

213
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 7: But you're talking about eighty seven percent, eighty two percent,

214
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 7: seventy eight percent Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Bronx respectively. Here on

215
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 7: Long Island. Here in Suffolk County, you know, you've had

216
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 7: a seventy thousand vote majority brought to you by the

217
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 7: Suffolk County Republican Party for Donald Trump. It's the second highest,

218
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 7: I think since George McGovern, since they brought an eighty

219
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 7: one thousand vote majority for Richard Nixon against McGovern in

220
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 7: seventy two. So different dynamics at work.

221
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: David Dear, I always appreciate you being on the show

222
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 1: Make New York City great again. Thanks my friend for.

223
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 7: Being with us. Thank you guys, have a great week.

224
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,400
Speaker 10: Of course, all right, stick with us.

225
00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: We'll be back in just a moment breaking down all

226
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: things bitcoin will that be integrated into national policy. We'll

227
00:11:55,400 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: find out stick with us, and.

228
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 6: Well everybody, I want to welcome you all back to

229
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 6: Special Report. I hope you're excited for a awesome weekend

230
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 6: as we approached the holiday season, I do want to

231
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 6: cover something real quick. The Trump train. It continues to

232
00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 6: roll on and President Trump has made some key appointments

233
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 6: over the last few days. Michael falkonder to be the

234
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 6: Deputy Treasury Secretary. He's a friend of mine. We work

235
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 6: together at Treasury. He was very instrumental in COVID response financially.

236
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 6: Paul Atkins, who's going to be the SEC chair. Billy Long,

237
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,479
Speaker 6: a literal auctioneer, is going to be our IRS Commissioner,

238
00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 6: and I'm excited to see if he's going to auction

239
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 6: off parts of the IRS. And then last night making

240
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 6: big news, David Sachs joins the administration as a Bitcoin

241
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 6: and AI zar. He is the first person to do that.

242
00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 6: And I want to go ahead and kind of do

243
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 6: little round robin real quick. You know you, Emily, are

244
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 6: you an an investor in bitcoin? Are you excited for

245
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 6: this kind of thing in our government or what do

246
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 6: you think?

247
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 2: You know, Caitlin, I think The timing is really really

248
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 2: perfect here because bitcoin just reached over one hundred thousand

249
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,080
Speaker 2: dollars this week. That was something that market analysts were

250
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 2: predicting for a while.

251
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 10: I am not invested in bitcoin. I can't even.

252
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 2: Afford one myself. I don't really want a fraction of one.

253
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 2: But bitcoin is something that I just really can't seem

254
00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 2: to get my mind around.

255
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 10: I mean, what is it, what is it backed by?

256
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 10: It just seems like air. I mean, maybe you could

257
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 10: break this down for me.

258
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 6: Well, I'm not even gonna bother trying to break this

259
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 6: down because it sounds like we've got our next guest here,

260
00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 6: a good friend and a White House, a Trump Treasury lum.

261
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 6: And he's actually the head of public policy at Riot Platforms,

262
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 6: a gentleman by the name of Brian Morganstern. Brian, thanks

263
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 6: for joining us here and for helping us break it

264
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 6: all down. I know we may look young and wildly attractive,

265
00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,599
Speaker 6: but in fact we do not quite understand what the

266
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 6: kids are talking about nowadays.

267
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 11: Well, thanks for having me on. Great to see Kalin.

268
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 12: So you should invest in bitcoin because it is going

269
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 12: to the moon with President Trump. For a sort of

270
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 12: a brief explanation. It's a protocol, essentially, a software that

271
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 12: creates a decentralized monetary network where there will only ever

272
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 12: be twenty one million bitcoin, and despite that cap supply,

273
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 12: there seems to be demand going through the roof, and

274
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 12: that is a recipe for an increase in price. It

275
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 12: has been likened even by the Federal Reserve Chairman to

276
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 12: a digital gold, a precious metal in effect, that is

277
00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 12: maintained on a decentralized platform by computers all around the world.

278
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 12: And it's really revolutionary because you don't need a central bank.

279
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 12: You don't even need a consumer bank or a commercial bank.

280
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 12: You can custody own bitcoin if you want to. You

281
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 12: can also have it through coinbase or River or Strike

282
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 12: or any number of apps that will help novices acquire

283
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 12: some bitcoin and learn more about it. It's really an

284
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 12: exciting piece of technology that puts the power back in

285
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 12: the hands of the people. It can prevent things like

286
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 12: d banking that has been in the news this week.

287
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 12: It can be a hedge against runaway inflation caused by

288
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 12: government spending.

289
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 11: It's really an exciting thing.

290
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 12: And at Riot Platforms, we are one of the biggest

291
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 12: publicly traded bitcoin mining companies. So we have very large

292
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 12: facilities with hundreds of thousands of computers that are helping

293
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 12: to maintain this network.

294
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 11: And the Biden.

295
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 12: Administration basically tried to put us out of business for

296
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 12: four years, and then President Trump promised that the US

297
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 12: is going to be the bitcoin superpower of the planet.

298
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 11: You don't get a much clearer.

299
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 12: Contrast than that, and so that's why you've seen this

300
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 12: bull run in the aftermath of the president's election.

301
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 2: Wow, Brian, I really appreciate you breaking all of that

302
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 2: down for us there.

303
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 10: That's really great.

304
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 2: Like you said, bitcoin is going to the moon this

305
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 2: week very timely for the nomination of David Sachs to

306
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 2: be the nation's first bitcoin zar, I want to get

307
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,360
Speaker 2: your take on him. David sax He's known for his

308
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 2: tech ventures and now his deep tive into the crypto space,

309
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: is set to lead a new initiative aimed at integrating

310
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: bitcoin into national policy. So what does this mean for

311
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: the bitcoin industry as a whole.

312
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 12: Well, it's a great signal. David is a brilliant person.

313
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 12: He I think first invested in bitcoin back in twenty twelve,

314
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 12: so he was an early adopter. He of course is

315
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 12: a tech bro more broadly, an investor in lots of startups,

316
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 12: and he wants the technology ecosystem to thrive in the

317
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 12: United States. Some of the issues just for the bitcoin

318
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 12: industry that are really important. Mark Andresen touched upon on

319
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 12: Joe Rogan last week, which is debanking.

320
00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 11: We had a.

321
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 12: Situation where banks are being pressured by regulators to stop

322
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 12: doing business with companies in our industry. It was an

323
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,640
Speaker 12: outrageous overreach, an abuse of power. We had the administration

324
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 12: essentially try to create a registry of bitcoin mining companies

325
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 12: for the purpose of limiting our access to electricity. So

326
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,399
Speaker 12: it wasn't just a choke point with respect to the

327
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 12: banking system, it was a choke point with really with

328
00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 12: respect to our ability to even operate our businesses. So

329
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 12: he helps to represent President Trump's view that these industries

330
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 12: need to thrive in the US if we expect to

331
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 12: have economic leadership going forward. So I am very much

332
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 12: celebrating David Sachs's appointment. I would want to congratulate him,

333
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,040
Speaker 12: and we're ready to work with him and to let

334
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,520
Speaker 12: him know how the government's been abusing us over the

335
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 12: last four years and how we can really help foster

336
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 12: growth in this space instead of trying to handicap it,

337
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 12: holding it.

338
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 11: Underwater like a beach ball.

339
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 12: And then when Trump was elected, it's been popping back

340
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 12: up and becoming more valuable.

341
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,639
Speaker 11: So we really want to get the public policy space.

342
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 12: Into really where it needs to be to help these

343
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 12: companies thrive as opposed to trying to hold them back.

344
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 11: I think David Sacks is going to help do that.

345
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 7: Well.

346
00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 6: I appreciate next time you use such vivid imagery, we're

347
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 6: gonna need you to reenact it on camera for us.

348
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 6: We'll go ahead and ship you a beach ball.

349
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 5: Brian.

350
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,000
Speaker 6: You know, we got about a minute left here, and

351
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 6: you came to mind this week. I know, I saw

352
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 6: you put out an op ed that kind of walk

353
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 6: through how bitcoin impacts the energy industry. And this is

354
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 6: gonna be something obviously that we look through quite a

355
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 6: bit as Trump takes office, and this because you to

356
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 6: integrate into federal policy. Would you kind of walk us

357
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,040
Speaker 6: through with you know, we go about forty five seconds left.

358
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 6: What bitcoin means for the energy policy of our country,

359
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 6: because I think it's very important.

360
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 12: Yeah, Well, bitcoin is what's called a flexible energy load

361
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 12: because the network is decentralized. We can use energy when

362
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 12: it's cheap and abundant. We can help monetize new energy projects,

363
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 12: help President Trump with his energy dominance agenda, because it's

364
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 12: really an all of the above approach. Wherever there is

365
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 12: excess power, we can use it, we can monetize it.

366
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 12: It's the opposite approach and the reason for the title

367
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 12: preventing the Californication of American Energy. We've had Governor Gavin

368
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 12: Newsom in California really deciding which energy sources are good

369
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 12: or bad, saying you shouldn't use natural gas, you have

370
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 12: to use electricity, while at the same time mandating electric vehicles.

371
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 12: So what he's done is artificially decrease the amount of

372
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 12: power we have and then artificially increasing the demand for power.

373
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 12: So the effect has been instability on the grid, rolling blackouts,

374
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,959
Speaker 12: and skyrocketing power prices in California versus Texas, which has

375
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 12: been all of the above. Everybody come in here and

376
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 12: do business, generate power, use power to create jobs.

377
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 11: So that's the approach.

378
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,679
Speaker 2: I'm the innovative for sure, Brian. I truly appreciate you

379
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 2: coming on the show to break all this down.

380
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 10: Today, I can say I learned something about bitcoin.

381
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 11: Thank you for being with us, Thanks for having me.

382
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 2: All right, stay with us. We'll be back right after

383
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 2: the break. All right, welcome back to Special Report. We

384
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 2: have all of the top news headlines from across America

385
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 2: pouring into our newsroom.

386
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 10: We want to start with this.

387
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 2: The jury in the trial of Daniel Penny has reached

388
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 2: a deadlock, being unable to reach a unanimous verdict on

389
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 2: the manslaughter charges. Daniel Penny is the former marine accused

390
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 2: of killing Jordan Neely in the subway with a chokehold.

391
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 2: That was in May of twenty twenty three, after Neely

392
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 2: was threatening and endangering the lives of people on the subway.

393
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 10: Kaitlin, what do you think is going to happen in

394
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 10: this case?

395
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,359
Speaker 2: I mean, to me, I think it's crazy in the

396
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 2: middle of New York City, with all this surveillance that

397
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 2: they still haven't been able to catch them.

398
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 6: Well, you know, I think in regards to the Daniel

399
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 6: Penny case, it sounds like they're going to remove the

400
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 6: top manslaughter charge, which I think is really big. It's

401
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 6: a really big sign that, you know, justice may prevail.

402
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 6: I know a lot of people are a little skeptical

403
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 6: of the last few years of legal back and forth,

404
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 6: so that's great. Actually, saw the represent of Eli Crane

405
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 6: is going to go out there and push for Daniel

406
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 6: Penny to be given the Congressional Medal of Honor, which

407
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 6: I think is huge because again, this guy was literally

408
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 6: acting in the best interest of his neighbors and in

409
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 6: their safety. So as always, I think that should be rewarded,

410
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 6: not obviously, you know, Cassis Sunder Michelle, what are your

411
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 6: thoughts here on the Daniel Penny case.

412
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: I'm honestly shocked and frustrated that there's a hung jury.

413
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,399
Speaker 1: There really shouldn't be. I mean, what happened here, he

414
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: was a hero. And I don't know about you guys,

415
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 1: but when, especially as a woman, going onto a subway

416
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 1: and having someone screen things and you feel frightened, I mean,

417
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: you want someone to step in, You want a citizen

418
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: to step in and help. Something like this is going

419
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 1: to deter people in the future from stepping in and

420
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 1: protecting others. I mean, that is the point. We have

421
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,080
Speaker 1: to watch out for each other. So it is frustrating,

422
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,199
Speaker 1: but I truly do hope that justice provails, especially with

423
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 1: that charge draft with prosecutors.

424
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, Michelle and I think he should have never been

425
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 4: tried at all. I mean ridiculous. But they were asked.

426
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 3: The prosecution was asking, you know, to see if he

427
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 3: acted recklessly, and it was pretty clear that he did

428
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 3: not act recklessly. They were using what's called a reasonable

429
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 3: person standard, and I think he was acting reasonably.

430
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 4: The problem is that.

431
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 3: Just because they've dropped this top charge, I guess they

432
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 3: move on to the second charge, which is criminally negligent homicide,

433
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 3: which carries a maximum of four years. Daniel Penny is

434
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 3: not out of the woods yet, and there's some people

435
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 3: think that he probably did act recklessly or at least

436
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:22,919
Speaker 3: criminally negligently.

437
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 4: So we've got to see what happens.

438
00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: Well, and you look at the mainstream media who painted

439
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: Nealye as this innocent person. No, Neely was not innocent

440
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: here if people were afraid. In fact, bystanders had even

441
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: said that. So I also partly blamed the mainstream media

442
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: for how they painted this entire picture.

443
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 4: And let's be honest.

444
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,280
Speaker 3: If you get on a subway and someone said someone's

445
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 3: gonna die today, wat.

446
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 4: Why did you do?

447
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: Oh? My goodness, especially as a young girls self.

448
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 3: And you have to protect women and children and everyone

449
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 3: else that's on that subway. So it just seems to

450
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 3: me the jury would think that's how a rational person

451
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 3: would act.

452
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 4: Well, let's move on now.

453
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 3: To the latest in the manhunt for the killer of

454
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 3: the United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

455
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,120
Speaker 4: It's centering the third day now.

456
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 3: The information release shows that the killer entered New York

457
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 3: City by bus November twenty fourth. A surveillance camera was

458
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 3: able to catch video footage of the killer at the

459
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 3: bus terminal. Police are investigating whether the killer also left

460
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: New York City by bus after he murdered Brian Thompson.

461
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, And in another development, the bullets fired at Brian

462
00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,120
Speaker 6: Thompson had the words written on them, Deny and defend

463
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 6: and depose Michelle. Those are the words on a twenty

464
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 6: ten book titled Delay, Deny and Defend. Why insurance companies

465
00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:31,120
Speaker 6: don't pay claims and what you can do about it.

466
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 6: I mean, I've been in a wormhole on this. I

467
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 6: sat in the car with my mother in law yesterday

468
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 6: for about an hour and a half and read every

469
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 6: theory possible. I mean, do you think this was a

470
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 6: professional hitman? Is this someone who's impacted by an insurance company.

471
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 6: Is there a third outcome here that we're not even

472
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 6: thinking about. I mean, what do you think, Michelle, Well, I.

473
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,400
Speaker 1: Definitely think it's someone that knew what they were doing

474
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 1: and most likely impacted by the insurance company. I mean,

475
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: this insurance company was extremely hated. They had a well

476
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 1: above average percentage for any claims that they do deny,

477
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 1: And given all of this evidence, I think that the

478
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: police are looking for that killer. I think we are

479
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: closer to finding him based on the DNA him or her.

480
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: But did you guys see the mug shot pictures because

481
00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,680
Speaker 1: they look eerily different, Kaylen, I'm not sure if you

482
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: went back and forth on this, but there are multiple

483
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: pictures and this killer was a little bit sloppy, but

484
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: it does look like two separate people.

485
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 10: Yep, there it is right there. What do you guys think? Yeah,

486
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 10: that's really interesting, Michelle.

487
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,639
Speaker 2: I know David Zier brought that up earlier too, that

488
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 2: the shooter was a bit sloppy but definitely had some training, right,

489
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 2: I mean used as silencer during the shooting, the gun

490
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 2: jammed up, and he knew exactly how to be able

491
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 2: to fix.

492
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 10: That in the moment.

493
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 2: So I think it's gonna be really interesting to see

494
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: all of the details that come out of this case.

495
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: But he also went to Starbucks beforehand, so that's interesting.

496
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 6: Duncan hold on, guys, a Duncan donuts, a drinker would

497
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 6: not have committed any crime.

498
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 10: They would have been a lot cleaner about it.

499
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: And of course police are now testing. I believe it's

500
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,680
Speaker 1: a water bottle as well as a gum wrapper. The

501
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,560
Speaker 1: DA DNA on that is still coming back, so I

502
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 1: mean they were slopy in that regard, just with evidence

503
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: in DNA.

504
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 3: Well, I think regardless of whether he was professional or not, he.

505
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,920
Speaker 4: Had a smile in his face. This seemed personal to him.

506
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 3: There was almost an element of arrogance or pride when

507
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 3: you see him smile. So he's been slippery, he's been

508
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 3: elusive three days now, you think they'd be able to

509
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 3: track him down. But I just think somehow this was

510
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 3: personal in some way, some sort of vendetta.

511
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: I truly believe it was personal as well. I'm not

512
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,919
Speaker 1: sure if you've seen social media. To stick on this

513
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: just one more minute. I mean the outcry from social

514
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: media is very interesting. You are seeing people praise the

515
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,679
Speaker 1: killer right now. I mean, this was a father, this

516
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 1: was a husband. It's quite sad to see that as well.

517
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 1: But moving on, we're also learning that Minnesota police were

518
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: investigating a bomb threat at Thompson's home just twelve hours

519
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 1: before he was executed in New York City, and investigators

520
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 1: are zeroing in on a gun store in Connecticut where

521
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 1: they believe the killer purchased the gun. Emily, your thoughts

522
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,159
Speaker 1: on this, I personally don't believe he's still in New

523
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 1: York City.

524
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess, well, we'll certainly have to see. I mean,

525
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 2: if you were the killer, you'd certainly flee the city.

526
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 2: You'd want to get out of there before authorities tracked

527
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 2: you down. But interesting about the bomb threat. I know

528
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 2: Thompson's wife actually came out as well, and so that

529
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,840
Speaker 2: their family was facing threats. She didn't know if it

530
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 2: had to do with any kind of insurance claims or anything.

531
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 2: Didn't really elaborate on those details, said that she was

532
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 2: consoling her family at the time. So, like I said earlier,

533
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,159
Speaker 2: I think it's going to be interesting to see what

534
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 2: comes of this case.

535
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I want to dial it back a little

536
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 6: bit to some of Michelle said. You know, the lefts,

537
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 6: especially response to this has been to praise the killer,

538
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 6: praise a literal murderer, and I want to dial back

539
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 6: a little bit, you know, looking at the lessons that

540
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 6: we've learned through this election and through this particular incident,

541
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 6: is you know that these people, they just don't seem

542
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 6: to have any regard for the sanctity of human life.

543
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 6: They don't respect, you know, their fellow man and woman

544
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 6: in this country. And I think that's really you know,

545
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 6: as we go back and we do an autopsy on

546
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 6: everything that's happened over the last decade, that is painfully

547
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 6: obvious from that to you know, support of abortion, to

548
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 6: you know every you know, losing cultural side that the left,

549
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 6: and that these people who praise this killer have the

550
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 6: one common denominators that they just simply do not respect

551
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 6: their neighbors. And it's truly disgusting.

552
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: Well, Cayln, look at the rhetoric from this election. I mean,

553
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: we obviously do not like Joe Biden, we don't like

554
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, but we weren't calling for her to be killed.

555
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: Very different situation from what I saw about what they

556
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,160
Speaker 1: said about President and Trump. And it's interesting as well,

557
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: just to double down on that other insurance company CEOs

558
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: are now taking down their staff pages so they cannot

559
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 1: be found online.

560
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 6: Scary stuff.

561
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 10: Yeah, it just scary stuff.

562
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 2: Well, I want to switch gears to this headline. Now

563
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 2: to the Supreme Court hearing on upholding Tennessee's ban on

564
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 2: gender affirming care for minors.

565
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 10: It is looking likely that it.

566
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 2: Will uphold the Tennessee ban, with the justices decision not

567
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 2: being expected for several months.

568
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 10: Caylin, do you think that this ban is going to

569
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 10: be upheld?

570
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 6: You know, looking at this, I have a very different

571
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 6: perspective on this as I would have. You know, one

572
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 6: or two years ago, even ten months ago, we're expecting

573
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 6: a baby.

574
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 5: I don't know.

575
00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 6: Any minute now, I'm looking down on my phone to

576
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 6: make sure we're not in labor as I'm here on camera.

577
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 6: And quite honestly, I think the thought of allowing a

578
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 6: child to mutilate themselves in this way is probably the

579
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 6: single most evil thing I've ever seen pushed by a

580
00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 6: political party ever. It transcends politics. It's almost borderline demonic,

581
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 6: and I really I'm hopeful that the Supreme Court will

582
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 6: uphold any bands on this kind of thing, and maybe

583
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 6: even take things even further bow Michelle, what do you,

584
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 6: Hays think.

585
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with you and Kaylen, I just had

586
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 3: a child and I think the same thing.

587
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 4: It hits me differently now than it did.

588
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 3: As you said several years ago, we're talking about hormones,

589
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 3: we're talking about puberty blockers, we're talking about irreversible things

590
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 3: that are done. These decisions need to be made at

591
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 3: an adult level, not at a minor level. And when

592
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 3: you think about how the justices are looking at this,

593
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 3: there's a difference between discriminating against a transgender person who

594
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 3: is an adult and giving some sort of hormone therapy

595
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 3: is what they're calling it, to a minor who doesn't

596
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 3: have the mental aptitude to make that sort of decision.

597
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 3: This is not even to talk about the mental aspect

598
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 3: of what this could do, much less the physical.

599
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, the mental aptitude, That's exactly it. Because if you

600
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,239
Speaker 1: remember back in middle school, high school, you're probably going

601
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: through puberty questioning things. Imagine an adult telling you you

602
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: feel this way because you're meant to be a boed,

603
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: you feel this way because you're.

604
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 10: Meant to be a girl, You're going to leave them.

605
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: It's truly demonic. As you said, Kaylin, so I truly

606
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: hope that is upheld as well, So make sure to

607
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: stick with us because we're going to continue to cover

608
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: more of this. We're also covering more of the nomination

609
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: for Secretary Defense Pete Hegseth as President Elect Trump comes

00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 1: out strong for his nominee. Seth Weathers joins us after

611

00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: a moment with.

Speaker 2: More well Everyone knows the next medical crisis is just

614
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 2: around the corner. Whether it comes in the form of

615
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: a pandemic or something much more mundane like a tick bite,

616
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 2: you and your family need.

617
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 10: To be prepared.

618
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 2: That's where the Wellness Company comes in, you know, the

619
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: Wellness Company. We have their doctors like doctor Peter McCollough

620

Speaker 2: comes to keeping you safe and healthy.

624
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 6: That's right, whether it is the medical emergency Kit, the

625
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 6: contagion kit, the first Aid travel kit, or the travel kit.

Speaker 10: All right, well, welcome back to Special Reports.

643
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 2: President elect Trump is doubling down on his support for

644
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 2: Fox News anchor Pete Hegseth's nomination for Secretary of Defense,

645
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 2: despite widespread pushback and criticism over Hegseth's past taking the

646
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 2: truth social Earlier today, Trump said Pete is a winner,

647
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 2: and there is nothing that can be done to change that.

648
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 2: This comes after rumors circulated the mainstream media yesterday claiming

649
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: Trump was considering Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to replace Hegseth

650
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 2: for the nomination.

651
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, Hegseth has been meeting with Republican senators on Capitol

652
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 6: Hill amid misconduct allegations. He's trying to garner support for

653
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 6: confirmation to this critical position. You were hearing folks like

654
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 6: Joni Ernst and others are coming around, and we want

655
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 6: to welcome our next guest, Seth Weathers, to the program.

656
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 6: He's the CEO of Conservative Dad's Ultra Right Beer. Seth,

657
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 6: thanks for coming on here with us today.

658
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 5: How you doing great to be here.

659
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 2: So, Seth, you know a thing or two about beer,

660
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 2: and one of the things that the left wing media

661
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,959
Speaker 2: has been criticizing heg Seth about is that he allegedly

662
00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 2: downed a few beers after a Saint Patrick's Day segment

663
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 2: on Fox and Friends. The Washington Posts at Hegseth's colleagues

664
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 2: described the incident as jarring because it was ten o'clock

665
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 2: in the morning, again on Saint Patrick's Day, and because

666
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 2: the beers.

667
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 10: Were sitting out for hours.

668
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: They were part of a display for the Fox Show

669
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 2: and now, Seth, I don't mean to live here, but

670
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 2: I'm an Irish girl. I commend him from upholding my tradition.

671
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 2: You know, on my people's holiday you defended Hegseth and

672
00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: a post on X this week saying the mainstream media

673
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 2: was so island and actually covered.

674
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,440
Speaker 10: For Hunter Biden and they live by no moral code.

675
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 10: So have these stories about Heseth gone too far? In

676
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:07,719
Speaker 10: your opinion?

677
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 13: Going too far is a good way we can put

678
00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 13: it on your air right now.

679
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 5: I think we all know what it is.

680
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 13: But the only potential thing Pete did there is they

681
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 13: did not name the beer. I'm not sure if it

682
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 13: was conservative as ultra right beer, that would be the

683
00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 13: only potential problem I have with that story. They're trying

684
00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 13: to destroy this man. Pete's a great guy, and I

685
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 13: think that, you know, again, all of a sudden, the

686
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 13: left is all of a sudden having qualms about people

687
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:34,840
Speaker 13: who have alleged failings in their personal lives. But they

688
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 13: haven't exactly been the party fighting those things amongst their

689
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 13: own since their resistance, I suppose.

690
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 5: But anyway, Pete is.

691
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,040
Speaker 13: A great guy, and I think that the attacks on

692
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 13: him need to be Trump's.

693
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 5: Got to ram this through. This is the one you

694
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 5: can't cave on.

695
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 13: I think you're going to lose a lot of conservatives

696
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 13: if in any way he shows any caving on Pete.

697
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 13: And whether he has to put him in through a

698
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 13: recess appointment. I don't think he's gonna have to. I

699
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 13: think he's actually going to go through the nomination process

700
00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 13: just fine. But nonetheless, he needs to be shoved down

701
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 13: their throats.

702
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 5: Regardless. They've given us an absolute slew, meaning.

703
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,360
Speaker 13: They the Biden administration has given us a slew of

704
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 13: bizarre freaks for cabinet members. And I think to have

705
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 13: someone as upstanding and well spoken as Pete is a

706
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 13: great honor for all of us.

707
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:22,879
Speaker 5: I'll be proud to have him secretary Defense. He's going to.

708
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 13: Revive the military has lost its appeal to a lot

709
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 13: of strong young men, I'll put it that way, and

710
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,280
Speaker 13: I think that having someone like Pete there will definitely

711
00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 13: revive that.

712
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 5: And so I'm excited to see him in that position.

713
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you make a good point. You know, some

714
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 6: of the loudmouths who have been wishy washy on his nomination,

715
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 6: those like Lindsey Graham, they're not even to my best knowledge,

716
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 6: they're not a part of the committee that would volte

717
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,439
Speaker 6: them through to the floor. So yeah, I think he'll

718
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,000
Speaker 6: absolutely get through there. I want to Seth talk about

719
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 6: another Trump administration nominee that's that's been getting some controversy

720
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 6: for literally no reason. The President elects select Cash Btellity

721
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 6: the FBI, and he planning on investigating a long list

722
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 6: of deep state actors. Obviously, he's been very vocal about that,

723
00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 6: those that have been wreaking havoc on the American people. Now,

724
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 6: many on the left are encouraging President Biden to preemptively

725
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 6: pardon a lot of these individuals. Cash has obviously promised

726
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 6: to go after folks like doctor Fauci, Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff.

727
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 6: What's her reaction to this.

728
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 13: Well, the only controversy with Cash is that he knows

729
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 13: where the bodies are buried, and these people are aware

730
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 13: of that. And I think it's one of the most

731
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:36,600
Speaker 13: consequential presidential nominations cabinet nominations we've ever had. And I

732
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,160
Speaker 13: think that having him in the position, someone that understands

733
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 13: where the bodies are buried, understands what's actually taking place

734
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 13: over the last few years through the Department of Justice

735
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:48,839
Speaker 13: and just the justice system in general that's taking place.

736
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 13: To conservatives, the unfair prosecution, the just complete injustice of

737
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 13: the justice system is really incredible, and I think it's

738
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 13: going to be an amazing thing to see Cash in there,

739
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 13: because I know he's not back off of these things,

740
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 13: and he's going to dig deep and he's going to

741
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:05,319
Speaker 13: expose it. And I think that people are very afraid

742
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 13: of that because people know they've committed crimes, they know

743
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 13: that they've gotten warrants that they were should not have

744
00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 13: had because they've lied in multiple scenarios of different cases.

745
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 5: They've done a lot of things that I think a.

746
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 13: Lot of people are gonna be appalled at because the

747
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 13: mainstream media has covered it up, but Cash has been

748
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 13: out there trying to expose it and bring light to it,

749
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 13: and I think it's gonna be It's gonna be a

750
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 13: wild few years and I'm looking forward to watching.

751
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 10: So Seth, we do want to talk about what it

752
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 10: was like launching your company, Ultra Right Beer. We understand

753
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 10: that this was an attempt.

754
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 2: To address the backlash to last year's bud Light ad

755
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 2: campaign featuring transgender Dylan mulvaney. You say that Ultra Right

756
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,520
Speaker 2: is a one hundred percent woke free American beer, and

757
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 2: you've actually expanded into some other alcoholic beverages from across

758
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,360
Speaker 2: the border. Earlier this year, you launched border Wall Tequila.

759
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 2: So tell us what it's been like standing by your

760
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,720
Speaker 2: beliefs in your business. Do you think that you've received

761
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 2: more backlash or support for your right leaning company?

762
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 5: Definitely more support.

763
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 13: You know, you get things from people on the left,

764
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:03,719
Speaker 13: and I'm not real worried about that.

765
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 5: That's not what keeps my attention. We're excited to do it.

766
00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 13: Brands of big corporate companies have long supported liberals and

767
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 13: the liberal policies, and so to have a company out

768
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 13: there saying, hey, we're going to do the opposite, and

769
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 13: you know our company has donated you know, we've donated

770
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 13: you know, I think twenty five thousand dollars. So the

771
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 13: Trump campaign directly to that in its packs. We've donated

772
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 13: one hundred thousand dollars to the Trump electors being prosecuted

773
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 13: by Fannie Willis in Atlanta. We've donated to school board races.

774
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 13: We fully funded a school board race and flipped it

775
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 13: from a woke lunatic to a normal person, which is

776
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 13: what school boards should contain. And we're yeah, I'm proud

777
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 13: to be supporting those causes. And that's kind of what

778
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 13: our customer base wants and they want to see that

779
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:45,759

789
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,799
Speaker 6: the time of the year when Birch Gold gives away

Speaker 6: to pay a penny out of pocket. By December twentieth,

793
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 6: simply convert an existing IRA or a four to h

794
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 6: one k into a tech sheltered IRA in precious metals

795

Speaker 10: I just listen to how exciting that is. Now you

798
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 10: might be thinking, why.

799
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 2: Do you I need to diversify into gold? My guys

800
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 2: headed to DC. Things are good, but here's the facts.

801
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,800
Speaker 2: An administration trying to put a dent in a thirty

802
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,160
Speaker 2: six trillion dollar national debt in just four years is

803
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 2: like a field mouse trying to stop a freight train.

804
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 2: We can't even afford to pay the interest on the debt,

805
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 2: let alone the principle, so better to be safe than sorry.

806
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 2: Take action now to protect your savings. Text the word

807
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 2: America to nine eight nine eight nine eight for a

808
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 2: free infoKit on gold and to claim your eligibility for

809
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 2: freeze silver on your purchase from Birch Gold. But you

810
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 2: must do this by December twentieth. Again, text America to

811
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 2: the number nine eight nine eight nine eight for peace

812
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: of mind that lasts longer than four years.

00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 3: will know the name Kevin Sorbo. Not too long ago

816
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:39,560
Speaker 3: we had his wife Sam Sorbo join us in studio.

817
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 3: We wanted to make sure our audience had a chance

818
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:43,919
Speaker 3: to get to know Kevin and his work a little

819
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:44,399
Speaker 3: better too.

820
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 6: That's right, Kevin and his wife started Sorbos Studios with

821
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 6: the mission of creating content that uplifts, inspires, reflects faith, family,

822
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 6: and freedom. And Kevin is here with us today Hercules himself.

Speaker 10: Yeah, great to see you.

827
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 2: Kevin, So, first of all, tell us where you are

828
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 2: right now and what you're working on.

829
00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 14: I'm in Rome, Georgia. I didn't know there was a

830
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:16,720
Speaker 14: Rome in Georgia. Last night at Shorter University Christian University. Tonight,

831
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 14: I got a later flight into Clarksburg, West Virginia. I

832
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 14: got a movie that Dean Cana are coming. I've got

833
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 14: three days left that movie, and then hopefully meete up

834
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 14: my family flow ski trip in Utah for that.

835
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 3: Well, Kevin, you know, in light of all this information

836
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:32,359
Speaker 3: that's coming out of P Diddy, we are seeing that

837
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 3: dark belly of Hollywood exposed, and most people won't understand it,

838
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 3: and I personally find it demonic even But if you

839
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 3: can describe to people what that dark side of Hollywood

840
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:45,360
Speaker 3: is like and whether you yourself ever had that dance with

841
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 3: the devil so to speak, where you had to reject

842
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 3: falling into the pit.

843
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 14: You know, honestly, I always heard about it for years.

844
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 14: I heard about all this stuff going on. I was

845
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,000
Speaker 14: never really big that much of a Hollywood guy. I

846
00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 14: love the industry in terms of banking, movies and TV

847
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 14: shows wonderful to me. Even though I'm the first. I'm

848
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 14: the first canceled culture victim. I think in Hollywood about

849
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 14: ten eleven years when my manager and agent said they

850
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 14: couldn't work anymore because I'm a conservative.

851
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 5: I'm also a Christian.

852
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 14: It's a horrible thing. It's like a double leopard secret

853
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 14: there in Hollywood, and they gave me the boot. And

854
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 14: that's why you mentioned SBO Studios. My wife and I

855
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 14: founded that years ago. We're doing our own thing and

856
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 14: for other independent producers. But I heard about it all

857
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,720
Speaker 14: the time, rumors of all the big names out there.

858
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 14: I don't have any proof of it because Hollywood, you know,

859
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 14: Hollywood can sniff out a conservative everywhere.

860
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,880
Speaker 7: So I wasn't pretty to.

861
00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:35,880
Speaker 14: A lot of that world.

862
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 5: Well, Ken's got something to it.

863
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 14: Because I'm not going to name names, but uh, and

864
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 14: I'm not gonna name names of good people that have

865
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 14: told me they've been around it. And seen it private

866
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,440
Speaker 14: least if they want to talk to you guys about it.

867
00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,279
Speaker 5: But I you know, it's thank god.

868
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 14: I think they knew better than the kindiscry like I

869
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,320
Speaker 14: would not take it as crazy.

870
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,040
Speaker 7: And same as well as.

871
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 6: Well, Kevin. I know that your your you, your your

872
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 6: whole family. You've all been very big supporters of President Trump.

873
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 6: I don't think we've had a chance to catch up

874
00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 6: with you since November sixth, But what was your reaction

875
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 6: to the victory? Did you ever doubt it? And and

876
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 6: kind of walk us through your emotions as we as

877
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,360
Speaker 6: we saw the big w come across the stre screen

878
00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 6: on the sixth.

879
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,319
Speaker 5: I doubted it only a little bit.

880
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,239
Speaker 14: I said, there's no way as much they didn't.

881
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 5: We all know that they did not win the election.

882
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 14: But there's a reason this so happened, another reason why

883
00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 14: back knowing them perhaps twenty years now, I was at

884
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,360
Speaker 14: the ven at mar Lagos recently that frager you was hosting.

885
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:46,279
Speaker 14: I'm going again this day, son, I get a pop back. Uh,

886
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 14: so we're going to an event where President will.

887
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 7: Be there for the kid rock.

888
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 5: Well.

889
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 14: Uh, you know, it's been a blessing. Moved into lat Escape, California, six.

890
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 14: We live in the I've been a mar Lago probably

891
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 14: about some times over the last off for the president.

892
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 3: I guess we have a little technical difficulty with Kevin

893
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:12,799
Speaker 3: right now. Maybe we'll get him back at a minute.

894
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 3: But Emily Kaylin, it's amazing that Kevin and Sam, who

895
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:17,880
Speaker 3: I've known for a couple of years now, we're able

896
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 3: to create a studio like they did Sorbo studios to create,

897
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 3: you know, entertainment that inspires and uplifts. And I just

898
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:25,560
Speaker 3: want to know from you guys, do you think that

899
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 3: there's an opportunity for sort of a cultural renaissance? You know,

900
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 3: you think about President Trump coming into office, you have

901
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 3: this whole kind of Americana theme of let's let's make

902
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 3: some content that's not so devoid of morality. What do

903
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,120
Speaker 3: you guys think think there's an opportunity for that?

904
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 10: Yeah, bo I certainly hope.

905
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:40,719
Speaker 14: So.

906
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the key to all of that

907
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,240
Speaker 2: is people like Kevin and his family having the confidence

908
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 2: to stand up for their beliefs. I mean, especially in

909
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 2: a place like Hollywood, that's really difficult to do. The

910
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 2: people around you don't want to hear your opinions, and

911
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 2: they kind of cancel you. They shown you away from

912
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 2: the jobs that you want to have. So I really

913
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,720
Speaker 2: respect them for, like I said, standing by their beliefs

914
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:03,959
Speaker 2: and trying to put that kind of content out there.

915
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 11: Yeah.

916
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 6: I mean, you take a look at what the other

917
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 6: side is offering. A lot of it is devoid of

918
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 6: real value or anything constructive, so to speak. And so

919
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,680
Speaker 6: I think, you know, there's a ton of people out there,

920
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 6: and we saw right the widely lauded podcast strategy that

921
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 6: President Trump embarked upon. I mean, they aren't messaging to

922
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 6: wide swaths of the American public, And you know, I

923
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 6: think we saw that born out. I think it's very

924
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 6: important that we get out there and we have a

925
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 6: marketplace of ideas now right, we have places and avenues

926
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 6: which to communicate with people in mass that aren't controlled

927
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 6: by corporate interests or state owned media or social media

928
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,160
Speaker 6: like Facebook. I mean Twitter is now free x is

929
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:50,240
Speaker 6: now free Getter, with which we're live streaming here now rumble.

930
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 6: There are a lot of options for people to take

931
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 6: intake information. And I just want to say, you know,

932
00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 6: when your political platform or with your message morality, et cetera,

933
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,840
Speaker 6: relies solely on gas lighting the American public into thinking

934
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 6: what is happening in front of them isn't real. Is

935
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 6: what's really happening, This is what you see happen. And

936
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 6: I think they've they've genuinely jumped the shark, though.

937
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:13,439
Speaker 4: Yeah.

938
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 3: And you know, I think about what something Kevin said

939
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: just a minute ago before he got cut off. He

940
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 3: talked about being a conservative and Christian being double leprosy

941
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 3: to the Hollywood left and the Hollywood elites, if you

942
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:25,760
Speaker 3: want to call him that, And I think that's so sad.

943
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,280
Speaker 3: But what I'm seeing, at least what I'm noticing you guys,

944
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 3: is you got Mark Wahlberg wanting to start a studio

945
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 3: in Las Vegas that's got better content. You have Chris

946
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 3: Pratt doing the same thing and saying, I'm a Christian,

947
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 3: I'm a conservative, I want to create better content.

948
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:39,800
Speaker 4: You have Angel Studios.

949
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:43,840
Speaker 3: Out of Provo, Utah creating incredible content. Cabrini that just

950
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,839
Speaker 3: came out Sound of Freedom, some really really great work.

951
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 3: And so what I'm seeing is maybe it's not so

952
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 3: bad to call yourself a conservative and a Christian anymore.

953
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 3: I think we've got to get to a threshold where

954
00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 3: to say that and to say it proudly and courageously

955
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,080
Speaker 3: is fine and to not fear career blowback.

956
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 4: For saying that.

957
00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And Bo, I think that President Trump's victory last

958
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 2: month definitely gave people a lot of confidence to be

959
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 2: proud about saying that they are Conservatives, proud saying that

960
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 2: they're Christians.

961
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 10: I mean, I've seen that Bible sales have gone through

962
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 10: the roof.

963
00:46:14,120 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 2: We've had the superintendent of Oklahoma Public Schools on that

964
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,279
Speaker 2: was an interview we did, I think just a couple

965
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,280
Speaker 2: of weeks ago, and he's trying to get the Bible

966
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:23,799
Speaker 2: and Christian values into public schools as well. And so

967
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 2: it may be just the entertainment industry that we're talking

968
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,319
Speaker 2: about here, but it really trickles into every part of

969
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 2: society having that example on the big screens.

970
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, And like I was saying, when it comes to

971
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 6: the message that you know, the other side that traditional

972
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 6: Hollywood and them are presenting, it's really a message of division.

973
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 6: And I think the key to that obviously is you know,

974
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 6: they win when you feel you're alone, Bo, when you

975
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,720
Speaker 6: are the only one who thinks praise you know, eats

976
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 6: believes speaks the way that you do in your community.

977
00:46:56,960 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 6: They win, and so ultimately, I think, you know, it's

978
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,120
Speaker 6: going to take a lot of people taking very big

979
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,799
Speaker 6: leaps of faith, you know, some that maybe, you know,

980
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 6: I don't know that we would feel comfortable doing or

981
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,399
Speaker 6: are in a position to do, and going out there

982
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,440
Speaker 6: and connecting, you know, fellow Americans to something that provides

983
00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,680
Speaker 6: and demonstrates real value. That's what we're doing here in

984
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,040
Speaker 6: real America's voice. Is why we love the zen Master

985
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 6: is because he's embarked upon this journey to really connect

986
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 6: the American people and give you guys a megaphone. And

987
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:29,479
Speaker 6: I think obviously the results speak for themselves. Yeah.

988
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:31,600
Speaker 3: And speaking on the subject of entertainment too, is there

989
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,479
Speaker 3: anything that you guys are paying attention to right now

990
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 3: of things you actually want to see? Like I was

991
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,319
Speaker 3: asking someone asked me the other day, is there anything

992
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 3: in the theaters you want to see right now? Actually

993
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,719
Speaker 3: said no. Now, I've seen Wicked the play and it's

994
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 3: very good. I know it's a big, major motion picture.

995
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 3: Right now, I don't really have a huge desire to

996
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 3: see it. But in terms of entertainment in the doorhousehold, Emily,

997
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 3: in the Fenn household, what are you guys paying attention

998
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 3: to that you want to.

999
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,920
Speaker 2: See, you know, sadly, boy, I would have to have

1000
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 2: to agree with you on that.

1001
00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:57,800
Speaker 10: I'm Wicked.

1002
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 2: I remember going to Chicago to see Wicked for the

1003
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,839
Speaker 2: first time with my family and define gravity was one

1004
00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 2: of the coolest songs, the coolest moments. I was thrilled

1005
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,480
Speaker 2: about this movie coming out. But then you see the

1006
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,000
Speaker 2: two actresses going on their press tour and it says

1007
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 2: woke as can be. I mean some of it was

1008
00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 2: cringe worthy and I almost don't even want to go

1009
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,359
Speaker 2: see the movie at this point because they just are,

1010
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 2: you know, trying to force their values on their audience.

1011
00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 6: Yeah. I think you take a look at the market currently.

1012
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 6: I think there's a real space for you. Guys are

1013
00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,879
Speaker 6: gonna laugh at me, but there's a real space for

1014
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 6: like masterclass being performed by you know, conservative thought leaders.

1015
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 6: I think if you're Tom Brady, I know you listen

1016
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 6: and you watch the show religiously, or anyone who's kind

1017
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 6: of a free thinker, you're Joe Rogan's, you can make

1018
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 6: a killing actually going out there and providing a conservative

1019
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,759
Speaker 6: or just a politically agnostic alternative to things like that.

1020
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 6: Hopefully I'm gonna go pitch this idea to zen Master

1021
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 6: once we step off the set, and maybe together we'll

1022
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:58,839
Speaker 6: make a ton of cash and we'll do some good.

1023
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:02,080
Speaker 6: But I think, you know, providing and demonstrating real value

1024
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 6: is what's going to differentiate the conservative movement from Kalen.

1025
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,440
Speaker 3: Any chance we get to see maybe Aaron Rodgers or

1026
00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:08,959
Speaker 3: Harrison buttert perhaps right.

1027
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,560
Speaker 6: There's a lot of brave American patriots out there who

1028
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 6: are now proud enough to you know, wave the conservative flag.

1029
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 6: And I think this is a real opportunity. I love

1030
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:18,920
Speaker 6: to learn how to throw a ball from Aaron Rodgers

1031
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 6: or kick a field goal at Harrison Bucker. Who knows.

1032
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:21,839
Speaker 4: That's right?

1033
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:23,839
Speaker 10: Interesting stuff, guys, great discussion here.
