Well of 30 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: more on the NFL and the mess that Roger Goodell 31 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: has now got in the NFL into in the course 32 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: of the program. You know two of the biggest NFL 33 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: fans that I know, our friends of mine. Monica Crowley 34 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: has tickets on the fifty yard line of every Jet 35 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: game that she she goes to, and they're having a 36 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: really stellar year, kind of like the New York Giants, 37 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: um but she's a huge fan. Wrote a great column 38 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: about this and Rose Tennant. I think one of the 39 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: more interesting cities as you watch all of this unfolds 40 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: as it relates to the NFL, is what's happening in 41 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh. I mean Ben Rousselisberger down the quarterback. He's 42 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: out there. He's suggesting that maybe we kind of made 43 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: a mistake and you know, just as a mess. So 44 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: we'll get to all that today and much much more. Listen, 45 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: I let me give you a little bit so that 46 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 1: you had the House Senate, in the White House. They've 47 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: all gotten together, and let me tell you what they're 48 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: trying to do and whether or not it's gonna be achievable. 49 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: And if it's not achievable, this is it. This is 50 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,279 Speaker 1: this is there. This is the end for the Republicans. 51 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: They can't get anything done. I think it's gonna get 52 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: done I hope that it's gonna get done right. I 53 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: suspect it's going to get done right. And in many ways, 54 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: the very criticisms I have had about the Republicans. Let's 55 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: go back to health care. What was one of my 56 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: biggest criticisms when it started in the House of Representatives. 57 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: I was, I was there, and I was suggesting, this 58 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: is just really dumb. And the reason it was dumb 59 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: is is the leadership put it forward a bill, and 60 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: they did it behind closed doors, and they never built 61 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: consensus and you have varying factions within the Republican caucus 62 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: in the House and in the Senate. I mean, you 63 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: have your more conservative members in the Senate, like like 64 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: Mike Lee and Ted Cruz, and then you have a 65 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: libertarian like like Ran Paul, and you have then you 66 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: have the hate Trump people like Ben sass and John McCain. 67 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: And I think half the time Lindsey Graham, Lindsey Graham 68 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: vacillates depend on what the day happens to be. And 69 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: so you've got all these people and I know what's 70 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: said behind closed doors, and you've got a bunch of 71 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: other people that do not want even the president to succeed. 72 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: You've got an impotent leader in the Senate. He's the 73 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: absolute worst. And his name, of course is Mitch McConnell. 74 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: So what didn't happen in the healthcare builds seems like 75 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: they're at least attempting to learn from the mistakes that 76 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: they made. Now, eventually the House passed their bill, so 77 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: you gotta give him credit. And I I spent I 78 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: was up late last night. I was up a long 79 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: time last night, and I was just reading and research 80 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: and reading and researching because I got Paul Ryan on 81 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: the on the show on Hannity Our New Time nine 82 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 1: o'clock tonight, and so that you know, and and Speaker 83 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: Ryan I had said, well, send me the stuff that 84 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: you've done, just so I have a list of what 85 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: you've got done. What the Senate hasn't gotten done that 86 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: you know, in the Senate they haven't even confirmed half 87 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: the president's appointments at this point. It's like a year. 88 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 1: It's unforgivable. I mean, the president doesn't even have his 89 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 1: own government. I'm complaining about the deep state. I'm complaining 90 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 1: about Obama holdovers. And why Mitch McConnell lets that that 91 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: weasel Chuck Schumer roll over him every day is beyond 92 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: comprehension to me. Schumer would never put up with this crap. 93 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 1: Schumer would have just said, goodbye, we're gonna do a 94 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: simple majority, give us the voter or not in Republicans 95 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: would say, okay, okay, I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings. 96 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: You know, It's just like Republicans they fear they're gonna 97 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: get blamed for a government shutdown if they're out of power, 98 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: and then they fear they're gonna be blamed for a 99 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: government shutdown when they're in power. I've never met people 100 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: that that just seem rudderless and and have no vision, 101 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: and they have literally no identity, is what they don't have. 102 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: They don't have an identity anymore. And that's why we 103 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: didn't get the bigger, broader ideas and and and solutions 104 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: and paradigms that we could have created for healthcare and 105 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: so on and so forth. You know. So, all right, 106 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: and Paul Ryan's people they sent over, Okay, So in 107 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: the House, they passed more bills out of committee than 108 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: they have in the Obama Bush Clinton and George W. 109 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: Bush administration. All right, that they deserve credit for that. 110 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: And bills that were actually passed out of the House, 111 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 1: they are above the average by quite a lot, actually, 112 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: three and sixteen versus a hundred nineties six point two. 113 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: The problem is the Senate, the percentage of bills and 114 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: acted is below is but then not the big promises 115 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: that they made. That's the problem. That's why this bill 116 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: has to pass. And if you look at the bills 117 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: out of the House that are stuck in the Senate, 118 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: it's two Just like, what the hell is McConnell doing 119 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: in there? I can't if there's one thing anybody that 120 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: works for me knows, I can't. I can't deal with 121 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: nobody that People that don't do it, people that don't try, 122 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: people that don't have urgency, people that don't have a 123 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: sense of get up and go to work. There's not 124 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 1: one person that works for me, not one that I 125 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: have to tell them every day what to do. If 126 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: I have to tell you what to do, you're wasting 127 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: my time. I don't have time for that. There's nobody 128 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: that works for me that takes lunch. Let me mean you, 129 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: I'm not going to lunch. I grabbed a chicken wing 130 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: before I came on the air. That's my lunch at 131 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 1: somebody else bought. I said, can I have a couple 132 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 1: of those? I grabbed three chicken wings? Alright four? I 133 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: grabbed four chicken wings. I don't know people. I you know, 134 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: my friends said, people write me, let's do lunch. I'm like, 135 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: what does let's do lunch me? And I'm like every 136 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: time somebody says that, I'm like, are you kidding me? 137 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: Who's time for lunch? And I do what everybody else does. 138 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: I roll up my sleeves and I work. When I 139 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: was a contractor, I get up early and I throw 140 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: coffee down my throat. I usually stopped then at that 141 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: point in my life at Dunkin Donuts, grab two donuts 142 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 1: and I went to work. And then if we did 143 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: get lunch, one guy would go out and get the 144 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: lunch and then bring it back and then we'd all 145 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: sit and eat. When you're done eating, you get back 146 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: to work. And you know, if I was working at 147 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 1: the shipyard, and then we all get a quart of 148 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: beer and we had thirty minutes and we'd all drink 149 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: it pretty quick, and then we get back to work. Um, 150 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: what's wee, baby James? What are you writing here? Set 151 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: the Senate, I'll give them dunkon donuts, are either gonna 152 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 1: have duncan so Um, the House has done more than 153 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: the Senate. And that's my conclusion. Now with that said, 154 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean, look, they did do the Veterans Reform Bill, 155 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: and that was the biggest reform to the Department of 156 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: Veterans Affairs. And we had a caller last weekend. I 157 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: didn't have it. At the top of my head and 158 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: the tip of my tongue. I was piste off at 159 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: myself that I wasn't up to date as I should 160 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: have been. Anyways, remember the scandals that broke out in 161 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 1: and you know they have. This is the bill the 162 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: President Trumps sign that boost the accountability, improved services and 163 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: leads to better care and offers the choice of these 164 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: vets to get the promises we made to them and 165 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: they can walk into other places. Also, the regulatory belief 166 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: relief is very strong. The House passed that, the Center 167 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: pass that the stronger border security that that was past 168 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,719 Speaker 1: one point five billion. But it's not the building of 169 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: the wall money, which is separate and apart, although the 170 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: construction of the wall has been gun and nobody's reporting it, 171 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: and I will give you the details of that. And 172 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: then of course the twenty one billion increase in defense spending, 173 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: which I think we needed. Uh, they did make a 174 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: big deal over the opioid s one million dollars. It 175 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: is an epidemic. I mean, you've got these young kids. 176 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: They're talking about this yesterday. I mean they're just addicted. 177 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 1: You know, they start taking grandma's percosets or vicodin and 178 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: the next thing you know, there's snorting heroin because they 179 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: can't afford eighty dollars for a pill, and they spend 180 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: ten dollars for a bag of freaking heroin, and the 181 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: dealers love it because they're making a huge profit. And 182 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: those kids it's it's like impossible to get off those 183 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: those drugs. It's like it's almost like a death sentence 184 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: the minute you start, and then you've got They've expanded 185 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 1: school choice, etcetera, etcetera. But um, that doesn't give you. 186 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: That doesn't get us to where everybody the benchmark really 187 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: was for most people repeal and replace. So it doesn't. Yes, 188 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: they've done some good. So what they did I think 189 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: to learn from their error and learn from their mistake 190 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: is I thought pretty smart. They decided not to do 191 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: top down. They've created a framework. Now. The only problem 192 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: with the frameworkers you don't have all the details you want, 193 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 1: and the details well, we'll get to the details. The 194 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: devil's always in the details. That's that's the problem anyway. 195 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: In the overview is that basically the Congress, the Republicans 196 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: of the House, Senate, and the White House have gotten 197 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: together and the President laid out four principles for tax reform. 198 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 1: He wants to simplify the tax code. That means going 199 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: from seven brackets to three. He wants it simple and easy. 200 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: They want to make it that a lot of people 201 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,080 Speaker 1: can file on a postcard or file online and you 202 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 1: won't even pour H and R block. Hopefully we'll be 203 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: out of business after all of this. And I'm not 204 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: saying that I don't want people out of business, but 205 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. The American workers, the middle 206 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: class are going to get the biggest part of the 207 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: tax cut here, allowing them to keep more of their 208 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: hard earned money. UM. And then of course the corporate taxes. 209 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: The President was very clear today said yeah, I've been 210 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: saying fifteen percent, fift The Republicans are outlining and Paul 211 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: Ryan's talking about I always wonder why they're gonna push 212 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: back hard, push for more but than the repatriation of 213 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: trillions that are out there. And so what they've done 214 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: is they've laid out of framework. And this is the 215 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: Trump Administration, the House Ways of Means Committee, the Senate 216 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: Committee on Finance. So this is the framework. Now, if 217 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: you couple all of this, the middle class tax cuts, 218 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: the corporate tax cuts, enhance child tax credit that's going 219 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: to be a part of it, an individual alternative minimum tax. 220 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: I actually think you should have eliminated it itemized deductions, 221 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: your mortgage, your charitable deductions that would continue. And then 222 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 1: I'm reading the Washington Post on this, and I'm like, 223 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: this is where the liberal media has no fundamental understanding 224 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: of economics what it means, because the headline and this 225 00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 1: they just go on, Oh, headline, GOP proposes deep tax cuts, 226 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: provides few details on how they're gonna pay for them. Well, 227 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: Ray again took the top marginal rates. And it's so sad. 228 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: I have to educate these big, lofty, well educated people 229 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: from the Washington Post. They probably want to had Judge 230 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: town Yale, Princeton, Topmouth, and whatever institutions they they considered 231 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: of higher learning that we mere models are not actually 232 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: being a part of anyways. A long story short, they 233 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: don't get it. Reagan doubled revenues by taking the top 234 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: marginal rates from seventy in the course of his presidency. 235 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: Last time we had any real tax reform was that 236 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: was in Reagan's second term. What they're trying to do 237 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 1: here is big. I just hope they're not biting off 238 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: too much that they can't get it done. Keep it simple, 239 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: stupid seven brackets to three. It looks like it's gonna 240 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: be twenty not fifteen pent on the corporate tax rate, 241 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: but a significant deduction. You know. The President had to say, 242 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: I don't know why everybody thinks that the rich not 243 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: having not getting a tax cut such a good thing, 244 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 1: because I never got a job from a poor person. 245 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: I only work for rich people. I've only worked for 246 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: people that could afford my services as a contractor, or 247 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: my services in a restaurant, or my services in radio 248 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: and TV. None of them are poor anyway, So I 249 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: think it should be a part of it. The President 250 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: said today that's not part of it. Then, you know, 251 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,559 Speaker 1: the headline on Drudge was even a little worse, as uh, 252 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: I need to read their sweet baby, as they're actually saying, 253 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 1: the proposal includes a surcharge on the wealth East American 254 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: with the wealthiest Americans are, they're gonna try and say 255 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: hard hide their money again because they're not stupid. They 256 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: didn't get rich by being stupid. But at the end 257 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: of the day, if you do that, do energy and 258 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: you stop the competition for people, the influx of people 259 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 1: that are keep competing for jobs, you know, that's a 260 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: good start. Let me put it that way, all right. 261 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: Eight d On told free telephone number. We're in the 262 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: Nations Swamp, Washington, d C. Paul Ryan is gonna be 263 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: our guest tonight. Our new time is nine Eastern and 264 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: then we're gonna head to Palm Beach. We're gonna see 265 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: Rush Lumba tomorrow and uh, he does very few interviews. 266 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 1: Were excited to have him on and get his take 267 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: on all things media, Trump, NFL and everything else that's 268 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 1: happening from Washington, d C. It's the Sean Hannity Show, 269 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: A right, Sean Hannity Show. We're in our nation's capital. 270 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: Eight one, Shawn told, free telephone number. And alright, so 271 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: it's not the zero sum game that the Washington Post says. Now, 272 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: it's a framework. Details are coming. I was pretty happy 273 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: to see, and I did talk to earlier today, Mark Meadows. 274 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: He's the chairman of the Freedom Caucus and and honestly 275 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: he's one of the guys that I rely on the 276 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 1: actually go out there and fight. Freedom Caucus actually put 277 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: out an announcement that they support the framework, they're gonna 278 00:14:55,360 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: support the House GOP budget, and that they support tax 279 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 1: reform bill that is now making its way through Listen, 280 00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: what's not to support. If you're a Republican, what part 281 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: of cutting taxes don't you like, What part of simplifying 282 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: the tax code don't you like seven to three brackets? 283 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: You're gonna drop the top corporate rate. It looks like 284 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: you're gonna take in all the trillions repatriated. And basically 285 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,119 Speaker 1: you're saying, all these companies that can't stand our taxation 286 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: in this country, all right, bring your money in, Spend 287 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: it in Michigan, spend it in Wisconsin and Ohio and Pennsylvania, 288 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: North Carolina and Missouri and in Florida. Go spend them there. 289 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: And then all those people that are out of work. 290 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: And then if you did secure the border, that's more, 291 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: that's less competition for the many jobs that we have. 292 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: And then if you take it a step further and 293 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,359 Speaker 1: we become energy independent and really pushed towards energy independence, 294 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: I know, it's the lifeblood of our economy. And that 295 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: means fracking and gas and and drilling and an moir, 296 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: and that means clean burning coal. And then we could 297 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: even you know how many millions of jobs we can create. 298 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 1: And in the energy sector, you're talking about high paying 299 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: career jobs for people. And when we were getting jobs 300 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: and partnering with some of the oil companies. You know, 301 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: we were getting people jobs at a hundred grand of 302 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: pop that were truck drivers, and they were even training. You. 303 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: If I'm out of work and I'm not making a 304 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: lot of money, and I hear I can get a 305 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: job that pays me a hundred grand, or if I'm 306 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: making forty grand a year and I can more than 307 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: double my salary, I'm gonna go to the oil industry. 308 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: I don't go down to do whatever it takes. All right, Well, 309 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: obvious the latest on the NFL.

I mean, their island was virtually destroyed. 333 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: Federal agencies are working closely with local partners to help 334 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:37,960 Speaker 1: these communities get back on their feet as soon as possible. Texas, Florida, 335 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 1: Louisiana are doing great and the recovery process is happening 336 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: very very quickly. I will be going down to Puerto 337 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: Rico next week to get an on the ground briefing 338 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: about the disaster recovery, and to see all of our 339 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: great first responders and to meet a lot of the 340 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: people who are so affected by these films. We are 341 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: with you now, I tell them, and we will be 342 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,240 Speaker 1: there every step of the way until this job is done. 343 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: It is truly catastrophic what happened in Puerto Rico, and 344 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 1: massive amounts of water, food and supplies by the way 345 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: are being delivered on an hourly basis. It's it's something 346 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: that nobody's ever seen before from this country. I can 347 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: tell you that. And I'm very proud of all of 348 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: the folks that have worked so hard in FEMA, all 349 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 1: of our first responders, all of our police that have 350 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: gone to the island because their police force has been 351 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: so badly affected, and many of their policemen, in fact, 352 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: most of the police people have lost their homes and 353 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,919 Speaker 1: it's been a tough go, but we are We're going 354 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: to get it back. Before we go on to discuss 355 00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: the largest tax cut in our country's history, I also 356 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: want to provide a brief update on healthcare. We have 357 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: the votes on Grame Cassidy, but with the rules of reconciliation, 358 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 1: we're up against a deadline of Friday, two days. That's 359 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: just two days, and yes vote, Senator. We have a 360 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: wonderful senator, great, great senator who is a yes vote, 361 00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: but he's home recovering from a pretty tough situation. And 362 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: with so many great features, including all of the block 363 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 1: granting the money to the states, etcetera, etcetera, our healthcare 364 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: plan is really going to be something excellent. It's going 365 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 1: to be better managed for the people that it serves. 366 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: Having local healthcare representatives is far better than having healthcare 367 00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: managed from Washington, d C. Not even a contact. And 368 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: many many governors, as you also see, have agreed with 369 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: us and approved it and really look forward to running 370 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 1: it properly. But again, because the reconciliation window is about 371 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 1: to close, we have to wait a few months until 372 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: it reopens before we take a vote. So we're getting 373 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: all of the good signs from Alaska and the others 374 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: to repeal and replace Obamacare. And I was hoping this 375 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: would be put on my desk right after we won 376 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: the election and I'd come in and signed, but it 377 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 1: didn't work that way, and a couple of people that 378 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:45,200 Speaker 1: I won't say anything but early next year when reconciliation 379 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 1: kicks back in in any event, long before the November election. 380 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: We're going to have a vote and we're going to 381 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: be able to get that through, and I think we'll 382 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: actually get it through very easily, and the time makes 383 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: it easier. But speaking of reconciliation, the Republican Senate needs 384 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: to get rid of the filibuster rule, which is blocking 385 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: so many great legislative reforms the American people badly want 386 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: and deserve. By the way, the Democrats, if they had 387 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 1: the opportunity, which hopefully they won't for many many years, 388 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: they would get rid of it on day one. And 389 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: most of you know exactly what I'm talking about. We're 390 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: here today in Indiana to announce our framework to deliver 391 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: historic tax relief to the American people. This is a 392 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: once in a generation opportunity, and I guess it's probably 393 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: something I could say that I'm very good at. I've 394 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: been waiting for this for a long time. We're going 395 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: to cut taxes for the middle class, make the tag 396 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: X code simpler and more fair for everyday Americans, and 397 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: we are going to bring back the jobs and wealth 398 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: that have left our country, and most people thought left 399 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: our country for good. We want tax reform that is 400 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 1: pro growth, pro jobs, pro worker, pro family, and yes, 401 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: tax reform that is pro American. It's time to take 402 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: care of our people, to rebuild our nation, and to 403 00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: fight for our great American workers. Indiana is a trum 404 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:04,479 Speaker 1: mendous example of the prosperity that is unleashed when we 405 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: cut taxes and set free the dreams of our citizens. 406 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: This state has claimed a powerful competitive edge built on 407 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: low taxes and less regulation. And are we cutting regulation 408 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: and businesses all across the country have taken notice. In 409 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: recent years, Indiana has welcomed dozens of companies fleeing high 410 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: taxes and high tax states. Thousands of new jobs and 411 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,639 Speaker 1: massive capital investment have followed, meaning a better quality of 412 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: life for the people of Indiana. All of this is 413 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: possible because the people of this state have made a decision. 414 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 1: They chose to make Indiana competitive again. They chose, and 415 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: their choice was so important. It included electing a governor 416 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: who you may have heard of, who signed the largest 417 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: income tax cut in the state's history, Our very very 418 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: terrific person and terrific Vice President Mike Pence. It's time 419 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 1: for Washington to learn from the wisdom of Indiana. We 420 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 1: need Washington to promote American jobs instead of obstructing them. 421 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: That is what I've been working to achieve every day 422 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,000 Speaker 1: since I took office. That is what I talked about 423 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: on the campaign trail. Already, we're seeing the results of 424 00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: an economic policy that finally puts America first. Unemployment is 425 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: at a sixteen year low. Unemployment for African Americans is 426 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: near its lowest point since the turn of the millennium. 427 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:27,719 Speaker 1: It's really a fantastic thing to send. Wages are rising, 428 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 1: Optimism among manufacturers has reached all time highs GDP growth 429 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 1: last quarter reached three percent, way ahead of schedule. Nobody 430 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: thought that was going to happen for a long time. 431 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: And this quarter I believe would have been better, but 432 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: the hurricanes will have an impact. But other than that, 433 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,400 Speaker 1: it would have been, my opinion, even better. Your government 434 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: is working for you once again, not for the donors, 435 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: not the special entrance, but the hard working, tax paying 436 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: citizens of our country. America is back on the right track, 437 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 1: and I see so many red hats. Make America great again. 438 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: That's what we're doing, make America great again. But our 439 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 1: country and our economy cannot take off like they should 440 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 1: unless we dramatically reform America's outdated, complex and extremely burdensome 441 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: tax code. It's a relic. I got to change it. 442 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 1: We have to compete, compete with other countries. The current 443 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: tax system is a colossal barrier standing in the way 444 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 1: of America's economic comeback because it can be far greater 445 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 1: than it's ever been. But we're going to remove that 446 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: barrier to create the tax system that our people finally, finally, 447 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: finally and want and deserve. For several months, my administration 448 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: has been working closely with Congress to develop a framework 449 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: for tax reform. Over the next few months, the House 450 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 1: and Senate will build on this framework and produce legislation 451 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 1: that will deliver more jobs, higher pay, and lower taxes 452 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: for middle class families, for the working man and woman, 453 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: and for businesses of all sizes. I look forward, Thank 454 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: you Alright, our stations along the Sean Hannity Show network, 455 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: we are going to blow the local break. Feel free 456 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: to break away if necessary, and of course we'll be 457 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 1: taking our heartbreak at the top of the hour. More 458 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: with President Trump in Indianapolis. These tax cuts are significant. 459 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: There's never been tax cuts like what we're talking about. 460 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: Our framework is bay on four key ideas. First, we 461 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: will cut taxes for the everyday hard working Americans, the 462 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: people that work so long, so hard, and they've been forgotten. 463 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: But they're not forgotten anymore. I think we proved that 464 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 1: in November eight. Under this framework, the first twelve thousand 465 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: dollars of income earned by a single individual will be 466 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: tax free, and a married couple won't pay a dime 467 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: in taxes on their first thou dollars of income. So 468 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: a married couple up to thousand dollars can spend their 469 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: money on their family, on their children, on what they 470 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: have to do so much better. In other words, more 471 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 1: income for more people will be taxed at a rate 472 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: of zero. At this zero percent rate, taxable income will 473 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: be subject to just three tax rates of twelve. And 474 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: Jonathan Blanton and his wife Jamie from Greentown are here 475 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: with us today. Where are they? Oh? Hello, Jonathan, how 476 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: are you? Jonathan does industrial janitorial work and Jamie works 477 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: at an auto company. Together they're raising four beautiful children, 478 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: and last year they earned less than ninety dollars. Under 479 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: our tax plan, they would have saved more than one 480 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: thousand dollars and could be substantially more, and that's just 481 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: on federal axis, so they would have saved at least 482 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: one thousand dollars. Middle income families will save even more 483 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: money with an increased child tax credit for children under 484 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,479 Speaker 1: the age of seventeen, which so many families have been 485 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: calling through. We will eliminate the marriage penalty in the 486 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: existing credit and expand eligibility to include even more middle 487 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: income families greatly expanded. We're also expanding the child tax 488 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 1: Credit because we believe the most important investment our country 489 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: can make is in our children, and this is just 490 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: one more critical way that we're targeting relief to work 491 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: in families. In addition, under our framework, those caring for 492 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: the elderly loved and we love these people, but we're 493 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: caring and we take such care of the elderly and 494 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: other adult dependents will receive financial relief in the form 495 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: of a five hundred dollar tax credit. We're doing everything 496 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 1: we can to reduce the tax burden on you and 497 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 1: your family by eliminating tax bricks and loopholes. We will 498 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: ensure that the benefits are focused on the middle class, 499 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: the working men and women, not the highest income earners. 500 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 1: Our framework includes our explicit commitment that tax reform will 501 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: protect low income and middle income households, not the wealthy 502 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: and well connected. They can call me all they want, 503 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: it's not going to help. I'm doing the right thing, 504 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: and it's not good for me, believe me. But what 505 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 1: is good for me, not only as president and legacy. 506 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: What is good for me is if everything takes off 507 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: like a rocket ship like it should have for twenty years, 508 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: that's good for me. That's good for everyone. And that's 509 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: what I think is going to happen, and a lot 510 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: of very wealthy people feel the same way, believe me. 511 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: In fact, we are eliminating most itemized deductions that primarily 512 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: benefit the wealthiest taxpayers. We have also given Congress the 513 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: flexibility to add an additional top rate on the very 514 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 1: highest income earners to provide even more tax relief for 515 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: working people. Second, our framework will make the tax code simple, fair, 516 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: and easy to understand. Finally, Americans waste money. Americans waste 517 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: so much money, billions and billions of dollars and many 518 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: hours each year to comply with our ridiculously complex tax code. 519 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: More than of Americans use assistance to prepare their taxes. 520 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 1: Under our framework, the vast majority of families will be 521 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 1: able to file their taxes on a single sheet of paper. 522 00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: We are also repealing the alternative minimum tax, or a 523 00:34:53,880 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: MT about time. The a MT is actually a shadow 524 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: tax system that requires many people to calculate their taxes 525 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 1: two different ways and pay the higher of the two amounts. 526 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 1: You're all familiar with it. Under our framework, the a 527 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: m T will make even less sense because we're repealing 528 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: many of the special interest tax breaks that it was 529 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 1: designed to deal with. We are making our taxes simple again. 530 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: We are simplifying our tech system to protect millions of 531 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: small businesses and the American farmer. We are finally ending 532 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: the crushing, the horrible, the unfair estate tax, or as 533 00:35:42,120 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: it is often referred to, the death facts. That means, 534 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: especially for all of you with small businesses that are 535 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 1: really tremendous businesses, you'll be able to leave them to 536 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,919 Speaker 1: your family, and your family won't have to run out 537 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: and do a fire sale to try and get the 538 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: money to pay the tax, lose, the business ends up 539 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 1: going out of business. All of those jobs are lost. 540 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: The farmers in particular are affected. They have wonderful farms 541 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,360 Speaker 1: but they can't pay the tax, so they have to 542 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 1: sell the farm. The people that buy it don't run 543 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: it with love. They can't run it the same way, 544 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: and it goes out. So that death tax is a 545 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,959 Speaker 1: disaster for this country and a disaster for so many 546 00:36:45,000 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: small businesses and farmers. And we're getting rid of it now. 547 00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: If you don't like your family, it won't matter. But 548 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,320 Speaker 1: for the right, that's the president in Indiana four tax rates. 549 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,719 Speaker 1: People couples paying making twenty four thousand dollars a year 550 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: paying nothing in taxes. Simplify the tax code, eliminate the 551 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 1: alternative minimum tax, and make taxes simple again. Or in Washington, 552 00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: d C. Will have Paul Ryan on all of this 553 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: tonight and hopefully the House and Senate can get this done. 554 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: And the idea is to jump start and turbo charge 555 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 1: the economy. Hey, listen, first, I want to remind you 556 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,440 Speaker 1: as we continue eight and we're gonna get into the 557 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: football issue when we get back. I don't think you 558 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: can disrespect our country or flag our national anthem. To me, 559 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 1: the NFL situation is a very important situation. It's called 560 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 1: respect for our country. Many people have died, many many people, 561 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,720 Speaker 1: many people are so horribly injured. I was at Walter 562 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: Reed Hospital recently and I saw so many great young 563 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: people and their missing legs and the missing arms, and 564 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 1: they've been so badly injured. And they were fighting for 565 00:37:57,719 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: our country. They were fighting for a flag, they were 566 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: fighting for our national anthem. And for people to disrespect 567 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 1: that by kneeling during the playing of our national anthem, 568 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,240 Speaker 1: I think is disgraceful. All right, our to Sean Hannity 569 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: Show from the Nation Swamp and Sewer, Washington, d C. 570 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:16,120 Speaker 1: We're gladual with us. Right down our toll free telephone number. 571 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 1: You want to join us, eight hundred nine f one, Seawan, 572 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: you want to be a part of the program. The 573 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: President again saying no, this is about respect, respect for 574 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: the country, respect for our flag, respect for the hundreds 575 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,800 Speaker 1: of thousands of people that died fighting under that flag. 576 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 1: And why the left and the crazy media and well, 577 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: let's impeach him over his NFL comments. Maxine Waters and 578 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 1: the rest of them, they just they clearly don't get it. 579 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: They don't know. It's unbelievable to me. Anyway. One of 580 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:49,640 Speaker 1: the biggest cities where this has had an impact is 581 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:54,240 Speaker 1: the great City of Pittsburgh, where our friend Rose Tenant lives, 582 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 1: and of course Ben Roethlisberger, their quarterbacks, that he kind 583 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 1: of regretted doing it, and then all the hand O Villanueva, 584 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 1: I thought, who was the hero, and then he's kind 585 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: of backtracked and he felt like he let his team down, 586 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,359 Speaker 1: and he got excoriated publicly by his coach, which shocked me. 587 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: And I've seen more people burning Pittsburgh Steeler memorabilia and 588 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,799 Speaker 1: jerseys than any other any other city or town that 589 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: has the NFL right now. Also, Monica Crowley is with 590 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 1: us a huge NFL fans. She's got seasons tickets I know, 591 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: to the the ever so powerful and successful New York 592 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: Jets and on the fifty yard line, and uh, I 593 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 1: don't think she can give those tickets away at this 594 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: particular point in time. Although they did have a great, 595 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: great win over the weekend and it was fun. The 596 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 1: Giants and Jets were on the same time, and I 597 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 1: kept going back and forth and the Jets were winning, 598 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't have bet it. We've been in a 599 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: rebuilding years since Joe Namas, So I always keep hope alive. 600 00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 1: Sean uh eternally hopeful um, well, Rose, I got let's 601 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: start with you, because I'm watching Pittsburgh and I know 602 00:39:56,120 --> 00:40:00,319 Speaker 1: the people of Pittsburgh. I mean, frankly that that's my life, 603 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:04,240 Speaker 1: my background. And I remember when I was there with Trump. 604 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 1: You were in the back of the stage, sitting right 605 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,959 Speaker 1: behind the then candidate Trump. And I remember how many 606 00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: people in the audience they have taken their terrible towels 607 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: and and waving them around, and the president even that one. 608 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 1: And and do you remember that you and I actually 609 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: stumped for a former Steeler, Lyn Swan. I were in 610 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh one stumping for him. I mean, the Steelers stands 611 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: are unique fans, the team is a unique team. There 612 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: are Steller fans all over the world. People that never 613 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 1: lived in Pittsburgh are devoted to this team. And we've 614 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 1: had a very honorable football team. But it looks like 615 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 1: our legacy has been tarred by this and and and 616 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: they can't turn it around. But it doesn't start with 617 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 1: a letter that Rooney wrote to the Steeler Nation yesterday. 618 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: He told us that what he believes is a misperception. 619 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,320 Speaker 1: There's no misperception about the player's intentions. I think we 620 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: perceived it quite well. But One of the things that 621 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: he said was that the players wanted to stay out 622 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 1: of the business of making political statement. But I'm telling 623 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:03,400 Speaker 1: you that taking the field and standing for the national 624 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 1: anthem is how you avoid making a political statement. Standing 625 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 1: for the anthem isn't the political statement. I mean, our 626 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: national anthem has never been political until now it's been 627 00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,800 Speaker 1: made political. And and you know, the bottom line is 628 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 1: left its found a way to take a song that 629 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: once united us and turning it into a song that 630 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: divides us. But it's not working. Not when you find 631 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 1: out that two thirds of Americans still are appalled by 632 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,120 Speaker 1: what the NFL and the players have been doing that 633 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: and that that tells me that the Democrats and Republicans 634 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,399 Speaker 1: and independence alike are appalled by this. I don't know 635 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,280 Speaker 1: how the NFL gets out of this at this point, Monica. 636 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the president, the president is captured 637 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: and Poles are showing that the people are with the president. 638 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: I'm with the president. I'm I'm flabbergwn. You know, we'll 639 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: have Katie Hopkins on later with Horaldo And And when 640 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: I was watching the Jaguars and the Ravens early on 641 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, and I turn it on and and they 642 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: kneel for for the for the anthem, and then they 643 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: stand for God Save the Queen. I'm saying yeah. I 644 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 1: wrote a column about this yesterday for The Hill dot Com, 645 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,799 Speaker 1: and I was making this exact point. Look, all of 646 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 1: the recent polling shows that the public is with Donald 647 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,800 Speaker 1: Trump on this. A vast majority of Americans degree that 648 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: the player's behavior it's unpatriotic. Right. It's not a question 649 00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: of whether they have a right to do it. Of 650 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,360 Speaker 1: course they have a right to do it. The question 651 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: is is it appropriate in that venue? Remember Shawn and 652 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: Rose a couple of weeks ago, when the Emmy Awards 653 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: were going on and every Hollywood person who went up 654 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,920 Speaker 1: on the stage and made made anti Trump and or 655 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,920 Speaker 1: even anti American kind of comments. I put out a 656 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 1: tweet saying, you know what, this is Hollywood helping Donald 657 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: Trump get reelected. This is the same exact thing. These 658 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 1: people don't understand, or maybe they do understand and they 659 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: don't care well what I would like to see the 660 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 1: president do. And this was the point of my column 661 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 1: in The Hill yesterday was to flip the script because 662 00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 1: he's still good at doing this. Do you remember during 663 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 1: the campaign, Hillary slogan I'm her, well, Donald Trump effectively 664 00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:05,919 Speaker 1: turn that upside down and he said, no, I'm with you. 665 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: And what I would like Trump to say now is 666 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,279 Speaker 1: you know what, guys, this isn't about me, Okay, this 667 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: is about all of you. This is the message that 668 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: I had during my during my campaign. If you want 669 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,760 Speaker 1: to protest me and my policies and my administration, great, 670 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:22,320 Speaker 1: knock yourselves out, but please understand that the national anthem 671 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 1: and the American flag are bigger than me. In fact, 672 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: they're bigger than all of us. So for all of 673 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 1: you left wingers out there who are paying lip service 674 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: to greater unity and tolerance, I ask that you demonstrate 675 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: those values by respecting the flag and the anthem and 676 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: understand that if you think you know this country doesn't 677 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,880 Speaker 1: serve particular groups of people, well will you know what 678 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: those very symbols will guide us to be better? And 679 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 1: that's all I'm asking. As president, I'm just a temporary 680 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 1: steward here. I'm going to pass from the scene eventually. 681 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 1: This is about America and our secret honor. That's what 682 00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:58,440 Speaker 1: I'd like to hear from President Trump. And I think 683 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,439 Speaker 1: if he removed himself from the equation Sean and Rose 684 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 1: like that. I think that would go really far, Bros. 685 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 1: I'm just curious what the Steelers fans are gonna do 686 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: in the weeks ahead. It's unbelievable. The oh my gosh, 687 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,399 Speaker 1: people are so very upset right now, and we will 688 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,279 Speaker 1: be watching now. There's been some indication that they are 689 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: going to come out and they will stand for the 690 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: anthem from now on. That's what we've been told. We'll 691 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 1: see if that happens. And if it does, that's fine, 692 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 1: and that's the right thing to do. The thing that 693 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,000 Speaker 1: bothers me is that the left has created this false 694 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: choice and and and they take something that is so American, 695 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 1: something that brings us together as Americans, and then they 696 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: polarize it. They they're protesting something anything, on the basis 697 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: of any kind of grievance they can find. And then 698 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 1: they put us in a position that if we go 699 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 1: against because that's that's what they decided is the moral 700 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,919 Speaker 1: high ground, then if we go against it, then we're 701 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: taking the morally low ground. And I'm tired of that. 702 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: You know, if we defend what our American traditions, that 703 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: is not taking the morally low ground, they've got this 704 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,720 Speaker 1: so upset, so upside down, Monic. I think you're awesome. 705 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,759 Speaker 1: I of what you had to say. I don't mind 706 00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: that President Trump has weighed in. I don't mind it 707 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: all because he's he's been charged with protecting and preserving 708 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: our constitution, with honoring all those things that we hold dear, 709 00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 1: and he's a pre smart guy. He has puts the 710 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,880 Speaker 1: heart of the average American just as he did when 711 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 1: he was running for office. People care about the national anthem. 712 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 1: They care about the flag. Whether they're Democrats or Republicans, 713 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 1: are independent, they care about that, and he understands that. 714 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: I think for most Americans this is simple. But where 715 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: does it end? I mean, does this end well? Does 716 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,840 Speaker 1: the NFL get their act together, Monica? Or they going 717 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: to keep this up? Well? I think eventually they will 718 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 1: because they don't want to commit it economic suicide, Sean, Right. 719 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: I mean, people are leaving in droves. She's got the 720 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 1: TV ratings for these games steadily sliding because nobody wants 721 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 1: to see this. People don't want to see these kinds 722 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 1: of political statements when they're trying to be entertained with 723 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,759 Speaker 1: a pro football game. So I think that just out 724 00:45:56,760 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 1: of economic rationality. The NFL will get its together. I 725 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,479 Speaker 1: noticed that the New England Patriots tweeted this morning that 726 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: they're all going to stand for the national anthem at 727 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,280 Speaker 1: their next game. Good. I think most teams will eventually 728 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 1: get to that point, maybe sooner rather than later. This 729 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 1: is just the latest in the latest chapter of the 730 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 1: culture wars, and Sean, you're on the air every day 731 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 1: talking about this rose you need to the left that 732 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:25,880 Speaker 1: has inspired this whole movement. They attack sacred American institutions. 733 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:29,200 Speaker 1: Pro football might not seem that serious, but actually it 734 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 1: it is because when you attack pro football like this, 735 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: you're attacking um, the core values that the Constitution, the flag, 736 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: all all all symbolize, and and you know, it goes 737 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 1: after what makes us great as Americans and the fact 738 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,359 Speaker 1: that that culturally, economically, politically, militarily we are the best 739 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: in the world. Number one, We've been a superpower. The 740 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: left goes after all of these pillars of our society 741 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 1: and our culture and our economics and our foundations in 742 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 1: order to tear it down so that they can rebuild 743 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: some sort of left wing utopia. They've been doing this 744 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: for a long I want to know, I want to 745 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: know why Roger Goodell wouldn't allow somebody to say never 746 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: forget and put on his cleats nine eleven oh one 747 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:18,440 Speaker 1: on the fifteenth anniversary of the worst terror attack in history. 748 00:47:18,440 --> 00:47:21,520 Speaker 1: Why the Dallas Cowboys weren't allowed to honor the slain 749 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: cops on their helmets, which they would have liked to do. 750 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,400 Speaker 1: Or players that want to honor their mothers of fathers 751 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: that are are sick in some way and in some 752 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 1: some overt way. You can't do a lot of things 753 00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 1: in the NFL. You can't yell, you can't curse, you 754 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 1: can't taunt, you can't work. You can't do a fake 755 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,040 Speaker 1: bow and arrow for crying out loud. So there's a 756 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,880 Speaker 1: lot of restrictions on freedom of speech. But Goodell, you know, 757 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:45,359 Speaker 1: I'll look. I'll tell you what it says. It says 758 00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: the national anthem must be played prior to every NFL game. 759 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 1: All players must be on the sideline for the national anthem, 760 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 1: and during the anthem, players on the field and bench 761 00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:57,440 Speaker 1: area must stand at attention, face the flag, hold their 762 00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 1: helmets in their left hand, refrain from talk. King The 763 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 1: home team should ensure that the American flag is in 764 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 1: good condition. It should be pointed out to players and 765 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 1: coaches that we continue to be judged by the public 766 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 1: in this area of respect for the flag and country. 767 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 1: Failure to be on the field at the start of 768 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 1: the national anthem may result in discipline such as fine, suspensions, 769 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 1: and or forfeiture of draft choices for violations of the above, 770 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: including first offenses. It doesn't sound like it was. There's 771 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 1: any ambiguity there. There isn't it. If Goodell had done 772 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: his job from the very beginning, nipped and immediately, we 773 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't even be seeing this right now. But the problem 774 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,279 Speaker 1: is shown, then it would be seen as him taking 775 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: the morally low ground. He might be perceived as a racist. 776 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,160 Speaker 1: But see, this is what the left does. American flags 777 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 1: on T shirts at school kids chanting USA. That's not 778 00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,360 Speaker 1: controversial until the left generates the controversy. And that's what 779 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: they've done here. And they've taken our institutions, our Americans 780 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,799 Speaker 1: traditions and try to take take the how less it were, 781 00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 1: take lower ground. If we defend those things, we gotta 782 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 1: we gotta leave it right there. We do think both 783 00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 1: of you, uh well, two of the biggest NFL fans 784 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: I know, Monica Crowley and Rose Tennant, guys, good to 785 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 1: see you both, Good to hear from you both. Thanks 786 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 1: for being with us. All Right, as we continue Sean 787 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 1: Hannity Show, straight to our busy phones, we go to 788 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,799 Speaker 1: newstalk WSB Atlanta in Georgia, saying hi to Lauren. Lauren, Hi, 789 00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? Welcome to the show. Hi, 790 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 1: thank you for taking my call. Um. I just wanted 791 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 1: to make a comment on the NFL kneeling controversy, and 792 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:35,359 Speaker 1: it comes back to our public schools not teaching civics anymore. Um. 793 00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: If you don't understand what your civic duties entail, um, 794 00:49:38,600 --> 00:49:41,839 Speaker 1: then maybe you don't fully grasp um. What you're doing 795 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 1: is completely wrong. Yeah. I think there's a lot of 796 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 1: truth in this. You know, maybe it's the arguments. Maybe 797 00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 1: you're not even that complex. Let's be honest. The human 798 00:49:51,880 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: condition is one of good and evil. The human soul 799 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: is a struggle between that good and evil. It's very simple, 800 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: basic stuff. I keep quoting this week very far because 801 00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 1: it just I can't say it any better in my 802 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:06,279 Speaker 1: own words, and that is there's never been in the 803 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,279 Speaker 1: history of the world a country that has accumulated more 804 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:12,719 Speaker 1: power and abused it less than the United States. There's 805 00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: never been a country that's accumulated more power than the 806 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,880 Speaker 1: United States and used it for the advancement of human 807 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 1: good and standing up to evil. No, we're not a 808 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,720 Speaker 1: perfect country. No, our framers and founders weren't perfect people. 809 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,719 Speaker 1: But the beauty of our constitution, we the people, is 810 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:31,520 Speaker 1: that we have the means, the mechanisms in place to 811 00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,840 Speaker 1: right wrongs, evils injustices. And I think our history has proven, 812 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: albeit ever so slowly, we've made many of those adjustments 813 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 1: for the good. And I I, for the life of me, 814 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 1: it's it's I do think there is a push that 815 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: there are people that want to basically just shred this 816 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 1: country to smithereens as if we've done no good. You know, 817 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: it's like a Michelle Obama. For the first time in 818 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 1: my adult life, I am proud of my country. Really, 819 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:01,239 Speaker 1: you weren't proud of your country defeating fascism, not seism, communism, 820 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,280 Speaker 1: imperial Japan.

Let me tell I mean, 823 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 1: America has done so much for the advancement of the 824 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: human soul, don't you think? Oh? Absolutely, absolutely, And but 825 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,800 Speaker 1: but I feel like our education system, especially the public 826 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: education system, I may, you know, be a little more 827 00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 1: left leaning and removing um, learning about how to be 828 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: a good citizen. Um. You know that that's just gonna 829 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:36,160 Speaker 1: be contribute to the detriment of our society.

So thank you for your kind words. And 843 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: I'm forever grateful that that he's given me the opportunity 844 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 1: with just a fill in for him, and he frankly 845 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 1: forged the path for all of us in this business. Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely, 846 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,399 Speaker 1: you guys do great work with your own show. And 847 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:26,480 Speaker 1: my my point this anthem thing, My first point is 848 00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 1: I believe this kneeling stunt perpetrated by Kaepernick, it's one 849 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 1: of the sillier stunts that we've seen by agents of 850 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 1: the far left these days. He says that he is 851 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 1: protesting racism. You know, I just want to know where 852 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 1: that is, because from what people on the left tell me, 853 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: one can't be racist without power. Listen, racism and I 854 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 1: gotta run. And I appreciate your calling, your kind words. 855 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 1: It's the inherent belief in superiority and if you if 856 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 1: you're if you believe in God, you know that we're 857 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,400 Speaker 1: all created by the same person. Great call. We'll continue. 858 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 1: I want to I'm want to go there for Tuesday. 859 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 1: Seems to be the first time we can do without 860 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,359 Speaker 1: really disrupting first responders and the efforts set are being 861 00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: made to help people. We have shipped massive amounts of 862 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 1: food and water and supplies to Puerto Rico, and we 863 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 1: are continuing to do it on an hourly basis. But 864 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 1: that island was hit as hard as you can hit. 865 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: When you see two hundred mile in arrow ones. Even 866 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 1: Texas didn't have two hundred millon arrow ones, right, But 867 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:28,840 Speaker 1: when you see two hundred miles and even more than that, 868 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: two hundred mile in narrow winds hitting a place and 869 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,800 Speaker 1: literally houses are just demolished. It was like tornadoes. It 870 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 1: was like having hundreds of tornadoes the winds. So we've 871 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,640 Speaker 1: never seen it actually touched down as a Category five. 872 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,600 Speaker 1: People have never seen anything like that. And it was 873 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: dead center. I mean, you couldn't be anymore. And don't 874 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,280 Speaker 1: forget a week before it got hit by another hurricane. 875 00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 1: Now that one brushed it, but that did tremendous damage too. 876 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 1: So Puerto Rico has tremendous problems with floods and with 877 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:01,320 Speaker 1: the damage and collapse. And I mean, we're still looking 878 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,479 Speaker 1: for people, were still looking for people. But I'm gonna 879 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 1: be going there on Tuesday, and I may also stop 880 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:09,840 Speaker 1: at the Virgin Islands. The governor there has done a 881 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 1: terrific job of I mean, he's been devastated, but he's 882 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 1: done a terrific job. And he's been very generous with 883 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 1: what he said about the relief effort. The FEMA folks 884 00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,960 Speaker 1: have worked so hard. You know, we thought after Texas 885 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:26,439 Speaker 1: they could take a little bit of arrest FEMA. What 886 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: they have done is incredible. So they go from Texas 887 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 1: to Florida. They happen to stop at Louisiana in between, 888 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 1: and now Puerto Rico gets it. But they've been there 889 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:41,399 Speaker 1: and they've been doing a really good job. So I'll 890 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,919 Speaker 1: be there on Tuesday, and perhaps some of you will 891 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 1: be with me. Puerto Rico is very important to me, 892 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: and Puerto Rico. The people are fantastic people. I grew 893 00:54:53,200 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 1: up in New York, so I know many people from 894 00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. I know many Puerto Ricans, and these are 895 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 1: great people and we have to help them. Uh. The 896 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,719 Speaker 1: island is devastated. It's I mean, some people say, I 897 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 1: I read this morning, it's literally destroyed. The infrastructure was 898 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 1: in bed shape, as you know in Puerto Rico before 899 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,680 Speaker 1: the storm, and now in many cases it has no infrastructure, 900 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:19,040 Speaker 1: so it's you're really starting from almost scratch. But these 901 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 1: are great people, wonderful people, the hardy people. They'll be back, 902 00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:27,160 Speaker 1: all right. The president earlier today, one Shawn is our 903 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 1: to free telephone number if you want to be a 904 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 1: part of the program. Uh, talking about the devastation in 905 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:34,840 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico. Two hundred mile per hour winds. Cat five 906 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:40,799 Speaker 1: dead center hit and the devastation is beyond recognition. I know, 907 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,319 Speaker 1: my my buddy Graldo has been there reporting. He'll join 908 00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: us at the top of the next hour. We'll get 909 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 1: an update from him. But as the President said, food, water, medicine, 910 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 1: supplies all going in hourly there and one of the 911 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 1: people that has been in the forefront. We we can't 912 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: forget the people that suffer through Hurricane Harvey and in 913 00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: Texas and Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria. I mean, it's 914 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 1: it's been one right after the other. The place I 915 00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: usually go to that I know has done such a 916 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,360 Speaker 1: good job and they always stay and finish the job. 917 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,720 Speaker 1: And we can't forget. I mean, you see the hurricane 918 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:13,120 Speaker 1: and people are generous and they donate and then we forget. 919 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,720 Speaker 1: But the rebuilding literally will go on for some people 920 00:56:15,719 --> 00:56:18,479 Speaker 1: for years. My good friend Franklin Graham, the Reverend Graham 921 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 1: of Samaritan's Purse, Reverend, welcome back to the program. It's 922 00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,839 Speaker 1: it's been a pretty rough hurricane season. I know you're 923 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 1: in all three locations and other places like Barbuda and 924 00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: others where where of dwellings will ruin there. What's going on? Oh, Sean, 925 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 1: thank you for letting me be with you today. That 926 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,879 Speaker 1: this is the I think this is probably one of 927 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: the worst hurricane seasons I can remember in my lifetime. Uh. 928 00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 1: And to have these back to back storms that have 929 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: wiped out not only the British Virgin Islands, the American 930 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 1: Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, our beautaful St. Martin and Turks 931 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:56,120 Speaker 1: and it's it's just incredible. And then to have Harvey 932 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:58,920 Speaker 1: what it did there, and this was a record flood 933 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 1: for Texas. He said, as fol us in your flood Samaritans. First, 934 00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,839 Speaker 1: we're working in five locations in Texas. We're working two 935 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:10,200 Speaker 1: locations in Florida, UM, and we started down at Key 936 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,200 Speaker 1: West and we're starting to work our way north up 937 00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:17,160 Speaker 1: the Big Pine Marathons so forth. That that that is 938 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 1: that's a tragedy. And then the Naples area. You know, 939 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 1: you think of Naples being very wealthy, but there are 940 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 1: people that are not so wealthy that that live there 941 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 1: that lost everything they have. And so we're working there 942 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 1: in Naples. The Caribbean. We were on five different islands 943 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 1: in the Caribbean. I was in Antigua day for yesterday 944 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:38,120 Speaker 1: and on the island of Barbuda. Had our friend gret 945 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: Events sust and she was she went with and she 946 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: wanted to see it. But the people down there in Barbuda, 947 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 1: actually they said homes destroyed. I didn't say one home 948 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: that wasn't destroyed, and maybe there's a few out there 949 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,640 Speaker 1: that are still standing, but every every place was just damaged. 950 00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 1: And these are these are these are not wealthy people. 951 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 1: These are people that have lost everything. And then you 952 00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,439 Speaker 1: take Puerto Rico on top of this. This is part 953 00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:03,480 Speaker 1: of the United States UM and the entire infrastructure has collapsed. 954 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 1: It's a mess. We've been taken our cargo d C 955 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 1: eight in and out of there just uh. We were 956 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:11,920 Speaker 1: there two days after the storm. We got in, but 957 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: it is a zoo trying to fly in there. The 958 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 1: air traffic control systems down, they don't have radar coverage, 959 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,800 Speaker 1: they can't separate airplanes coming in, so it's very, very 960 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 1: difficult for humanitarian organizations like us to try to even 961 00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: get in there. We have to fight to get a 962 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,440 Speaker 1: slot to get into the airport. But that's just part 963 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 1: of the problems after storms like this. But I want 964 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 1: to say, Sean, how much I appreciate your gift, the 965 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 1: support of thousands of people across this country that have 966 00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 1: that have been giving to help the victims of these hurricanes. 967 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: And Samaritans first, we're responding, we'll be therefore, as you said, 968 00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: we'll be there for years in these places, helping people 969 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 1: not just recover from the storm. But now that we 970 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 1: get through, the recovery is it is, the is the 971 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 1: rebuild and that just takes time, and we just need 972 00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:55,560 Speaker 1: to pray that God will give everybody patients. But we 973 00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 1: we need God's we need God's help as we move forward, 974 00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 1: and especially the people of Puerto Rico, they they really 975 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 1: need our prayers. So I want you to explain by 976 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 1: the way you're making me realize that I need to 977 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 1: donate more, Reverend, Honestly, I mean because I've I've actually 978 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 1: been out with you in Baton Rouge and other places 979 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 1: where I see the real great work that you do 980 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,440 Speaker 1: with Samaritans. Person you do stay there and you do 981 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,560 Speaker 1: finish the job. Um, but there's a lot of things 982 00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,880 Speaker 1: people can do, and it's interesting that these things happen, 983 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 1: and they the worst things for people, and their lives 984 00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,280 Speaker 1: are devastated, and then you see all this goodness coming 985 00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: out of people as well. I mean, how many people 986 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:31,560 Speaker 1: have changed their lives and they end up working for 987 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,800 Speaker 1: Samaritan's Purse and helping people rebuild their homes. I mean, 988 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,440 Speaker 1: every time something happens, as I understand that, you're getting 989 00:59:37,440 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 1: thousands of people volunteering to to just step up and 990 00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 1: do whatever they can. We do show and we have 991 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 1: thousands of volunteers that that come work with us. The 992 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:49,720 Speaker 1: difficulty with these particular storms, Uh, if you take like 993 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 1: the keys, it's almost impossible to get volunteers down there. 994 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,080 Speaker 1: Of course, there's no place where the volunteers to stay. 995 00:59:56,200 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 1: The hotels are destroyed, the houses are destroyed. So we're 996 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 1: doing is We've got a church in Port Lauderdale that's 997 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,880 Speaker 1: a Calgary chapel that is that is housing our volunteers. 998 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 1: And then we've got three airplanes down there, and we've 999 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 1: got a d C d C three, We've got a 1000 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:15,440 Speaker 1: Spanish made Cossa cargo plane and assessment caravan and we 1001 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,680 Speaker 1: fly the volunteers down in the morning. We make several 1002 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:20,040 Speaker 1: trips and then in the evening we make several trips 1003 01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 1: back to Fort Lauderdale is so we've got a place 1004 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 1: to house them. And then when we get to Antique 1005 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:25,960 Speaker 1: with the same thing. There's no place to stay in 1006 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 1: bar Buddhas, so we have to keep our volunteers uh 1007 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,960 Speaker 1: in St. John's and a tie and then fly them 1008 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 1: over to the island of Barbuda where they work for 1009 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:36,400 Speaker 1: the day, then fly them back. But Seawan, all of 1010 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 1: these volunteers are incredible men and women, and we couldn't 1011 01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 1: do the work without them. And more importantly, we want 1012 01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: to work in these these communities and I want to 1013 01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:47,720 Speaker 1: of course I do this in the name of Jesus Christ. 1014 01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 1: I want people to know that God loves them and 1015 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 1: cares for them, that he's not mad at him. Many 1016 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 1: times people think after a storm, maybe God is mad 1017 01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:57,760 Speaker 1: at me, and uh, and I'm going through this because 1018 01:00:57,800 --> 01:01:00,400 Speaker 1: of some sin in my life. But they asked Jesus 1019 01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: the same question, and Jesus said, no, that's it's not 1020 01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 1: that you're worst sinners. The point is the Bible says 1021 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: if we don't repent, we're all going to perish, and 1022 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:10,840 Speaker 1: that's the warning. I want people to know that if 1023 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,200 Speaker 1: if we don't repent, the destruction is going to come 1024 01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 1: to all of us one day when we have to 1025 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 1: stand before All Mighty God and he judges. Is there 1026 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 1: a correlation between sin and bad things that happen in 1027 01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 1: people's life? I mean, that's a that's an unbelievable philosophical question. Well, 1028 01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:28,959 Speaker 1: I think it can be some of our lifestyles, whether 1029 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 1: you drink too much or whether you eat too much. 1030 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 1: And and I only have to two beers a day. 1031 01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't understand why you're yelling at me. I think 1032 01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:39,880 Speaker 1: two beers is moderate. I think I'm fine. Well, but 1033 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:45,600 Speaker 1: you know, Sean, we we've we've are consequences two decisions 1034 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 1: we make in life, health issues or so forth. But 1035 01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:52,080 Speaker 1: yet there are consequences as spiritually, if we reject God, 1036 01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 1: and if we reject his son Jesus Christ, there are 1037 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,920 Speaker 1: consequences to that. God is offering salvation, He's offering forgiveness. 1038 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 1: But if we reject team and reject his gift of 1039 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 1: the salvation, which is free that's through faith in Jesus Christ, 1040 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 1: then he has no choice but to judge us one day. 1041 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: But Shan, and that brings up a good point. I 1042 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 1: want to talk about your film for a minute. Your movie, 1043 01:02:13,440 --> 01:02:18,160 Speaker 1: h it is an incredible, powerful movie that that that 1044 01:02:18,200 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 1: you've you've put together Let There Be Life. You sent 1045 01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 1: a link for me to watch that, and I was 1046 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 1: up in Alaska and I watched it on my iPhone 1047 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 1: and once I started, I couldn't put it down. I 1048 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 1: just thought, this is fantastic and you've done such a 1049 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 1: great job. And when I first started watching the film, 1050 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:38,800 Speaker 1: I thought, you know, I've never seen anything quite like this. 1051 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 1: And and the more I watched it, the deeper it 1052 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 1: pulled me into it and it and and it is 1053 01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 1: so well done, so well produced, and you think you've 1054 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:50,800 Speaker 1: got to figure it out. This thing takes you on 1055 01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:54,520 Speaker 1: a roller coaster of emotion. And I was just so 1056 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 1: pleased on that you you did this, and I just 1057 01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,760 Speaker 1: prayed that it does extremely well. Reverend, coming from you, 1058 01:02:59,840 --> 01:03:01,920 Speaker 1: that that is the biggest compliment you see, because I'm 1059 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:04,360 Speaker 1: the bigger center here, so I let therapy light. I'm 1060 01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 1: I'm so proud of the message and the product that 1061 01:03:08,200 --> 01:03:10,919 Speaker 1: has been put together. And an all credit to Kevin 1062 01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:14,280 Speaker 1: and Sam Sorbo. They've been amazing and they're acting is amazing, 1063 01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,240 Speaker 1: and what I love about it it does take you 1064 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:19,600 Speaker 1: on an emotional roller coaster that you can't possibly anticipate 1065 01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:21,479 Speaker 1: how this is going to end up. And it also 1066 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 1: has I think a lot of modern day you know, applications. 1067 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times on college campuses if you 1068 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 1: have somebody of faith debating an atheist in this case 1069 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 1: who wrote a book abording God, and and the audience 1070 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 1: is on the side of the the atheist, the abording 1071 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:41,439 Speaker 1: God guy, and Christians are and people of faith are 1072 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 1: mocked and ridiculed and made fun of and considered old fashioned. 1073 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,960 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you see the 1074 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 1: deep pain that that that individual was going through. I 1075 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:53,040 Speaker 1: don't want to give the whole movie away, and um, 1076 01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, well coming from you look, it's I'm very 1077 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:59,240 Speaker 1: proud of it, especially in light of Hollywood, I think, 1078 01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:02,640 Speaker 1: being so inside it in their their viewpoints. I do 1079 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: think there's an appetite out there for people to have 1080 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 1: films that will touch their hearts and touch their souls. 1081 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,320 Speaker 1: I've watched this. It's you know, it's my first foray 1082 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 1: into executive producing of a movie. I had no idea 1083 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 1: what I was doing or getting into, but um, I'm 1084 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 1: very proud of it, and I do think it has 1085 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 1: an uplifting message and one that we can all that 1086 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,919 Speaker 1: can touch the heart. No question, Sean. It's not only 1087 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 1: does it have an uplifting message, but but you have 1088 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: God's gospel in in this film. And uh, you've got 1089 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:37,360 Speaker 1: forgiveness in this film. You've got redemption in this film. Uh, 1090 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:39,520 Speaker 1: there's so much that you have been able to put 1091 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: into it. So I'm I'm just proud of you, Sean, 1092 01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 1: for for doing this. Yeah, and your and your sweet wife, 1093 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: she must have had a big influence, you know, the 1094 01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: better half of the family. I guess, so you gave 1095 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 1: it up. Listen. I'm I always admit to you, I'm 1096 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:55,720 Speaker 1: like I was the bad guy. I was the troublemaker. 1097 01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 1: I was the incorrigible human being, and I think it's 1098 01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,240 Speaker 1: it's continued through my my adulthood. But you know, I'm 1099 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 1: glad you're saying it. Um, we actually have a website 1100 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,479 Speaker 1: we've set up let there be Light movie dot com 1101 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:12,520 Speaker 1: slash pastors, and I'm just I honestly, I'm not so 1102 01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:14,760 Speaker 1: concerned about any investment I made in the movie as 1103 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 1: much as I think the message is powerful and I 1104 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: hope pastors will go to that website and they can 1105 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 1: show their congregations and and I think people will really 1106 01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:25,760 Speaker 1: really get a lot out of it. And I think 1107 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 1: it's so contemporary, and it's it's it's it's it's subtle 1108 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 1: in its message. It's like we're not hitting people over 1109 01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 1: the head and saying do this or do that. But 1110 01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 1: I think it just reveals it. It just reveals a 1111 01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 1: choice that we all have in life. Well, it does 1112 01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 1: not only reveals choices consequences of those choices, but but 1113 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 1: the fact that you've got it's a love story. Um. 1114 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,800 Speaker 1: And it's you know, and if that's in it, uh, 1115 01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 1: it's it's got. As I said, the gospel that Jesus 1116 01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:59,520 Speaker 1: is the way, He's the truth in the life. You've 1117 01:05:59,520 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 1: got an incredible story of redemption. I think this is um. 1118 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: You know. I think this movie will do extremely well. 1119 01:06:06,560 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 1: God will bless it and God will honor you. I 1120 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,040 Speaker 1: think Sean for doing it all. We gotta take a break. 1121 01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 1: We'll come back more with the Reverend Franklin Graham of 1122 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:17,080 Speaker 1: Samaritan's Purse, and we'll get to your calls comments.

I think that 1253 01:12:53,840 --> 01:12:59,760 Speaker 1: it's not a good comprehension that this is a scale disaster. 1254 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,880 Speaker 1: There is scarcely a home on this island of three 1255 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 1: point four millions that has not been severely damaged. I 1256 01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:08,519 Speaker 1: was missing one of my aunts, one of the my 1257 01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:11,600 Speaker 1: father's youngest sibling, is one of seventeen children. It's the 1258 01:13:11,640 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 1: youngest in l a eighty four years old. She was 1259 01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:17,040 Speaker 1: by herself, not by slf. But she was surrounded by 1260 01:13:17,080 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: young relatives in a home with no electricity, no water, 1261 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:23,040 Speaker 1: and a tree. A tree had crashed through their house 1262 01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:25,360 Speaker 1: and they didn't have the uh, you know, the tools 1263 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:28,719 Speaker 1: or the physical wherewithal to to repass. They've been living 1264 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,720 Speaker 1: for six days with the house with a hole in 1265 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:33,040 Speaker 1: the roof, and she's one of millions on It is 1266 01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 1: so generalized. The suffering no power. Just imagine, you know, 1267 01:13:37,920 --> 01:13:40,120 Speaker 1: three point four million. This is not small. It's bigger 1268 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 1: than some states. The population without power, without no water, 1269 01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:50,120 Speaker 1: electricity to pump the water. In many the agricultural crop 1270 01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:54,200 Speaker 1: for this season is absolutely destroyed. And the report for 1271 01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:57,320 Speaker 1: some reason is working like a part time. The airport 1272 01:13:57,360 --> 01:13:59,840 Speaker 1: is only just now getting up to speed. It's been 1273 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:07,680 Speaker 1: a very uh discombobulated response, very uh mediocre response. Well, 1274 01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:11,519 Speaker 1: the president is said he would go there today. He 1275 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:13,880 Speaker 1: said he just it's so difficult and he doesn't want 1276 01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 1: to distract from the efforts.

Although I met Katie 1307 01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 1: Hopkins at a dinner and her best friend kept slugging 1308 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:59,679 Speaker 1: me and punching me and hitting me after her best 1309 01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:02,479 Speaker 1: friend had like two drinks, and I was stunned as 1310 01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:05,439 Speaker 1: I sat there at the table and how violent friends 1311 01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 1: of the Brits can be. Hey, listen, I'm not going 1312 01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:11,720 Speaker 1: to give Heraldo a hard time today because I think 1313 01:16:11,760 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 1: he's doing a fantastic job there. I saw your tweet 1314 01:16:14,320 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 1: Sean offering to match him pound for pound, and I 1315 01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:19,600 Speaker 1: look forward to seeing what you two boys can do 1316 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:23,000 Speaker 1: for Puerto Rico. I do see that the United States 1317 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:26,000 Speaker 1: Navy hospital ship, the US Comfort, is going to be 1318 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:28,599 Speaker 1: on its way soon, so that feels like a really 1319 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:31,000 Speaker 1: big bit of news in terms of that has twelve 1320 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:34,320 Speaker 1: operating theaters on board, which I can only imagine. It's 1321 01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:37,280 Speaker 1: a good thing. Right now, let's talk a little bit, 1322 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 1: Horaldo about You know, you just heard Bill press the 1323 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 1: anthemous so angry. It made me so angry. I remember 1324 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:51,040 Speaker 1: when Whitney Houston sang the anthem January. We had just 1325 01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 1: gone in the proteant goals and everybody in America stood up, 1326 01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:58,920 Speaker 1: tears following our eyes. The country was united. It was 1327 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:01,759 Speaker 1: one of those moments, wasn't black and white and brown 1328 01:17:01,840 --> 01:17:04,360 Speaker 1: and this and that? We're all Americans And it was 1329 01:17:04,400 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 1: such a stirring moment. We rallied on the symbols that 1330 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 1: have been around for centuries, and then to to to 1331 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:14,120 Speaker 1: talk about it. And that's the meaning disgusting way. I 1332 01:17:14,120 --> 01:17:16,400 Speaker 1: think that I mean to get a hit on social 1333 01:17:16,439 --> 01:17:20,640 Speaker 1: media because you're outrageous. It's just I was so angry, absolutely, 1334 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:22,679 Speaker 1: you know, and then you listen to all these people, 1335 01:17:23,120 --> 01:17:26,240 Speaker 1: Katie Is. I never heard the president but one time 1336 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:30,719 Speaker 1: ever talk about race. What he talked about was respect 1337 01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 1: for the flag, respect for our anthem, respect for our country, 1338 01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:37,240 Speaker 1: and with all due respect to when the Jaguars and 1339 01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 1: the Ravens were playing in your country and they took 1340 01:17:40,920 --> 01:17:43,640 Speaker 1: a knee for the for the Star Spangled banner, for 1341 01:17:43,680 --> 01:17:46,880 Speaker 1: the national anthem, and then they stood, they stood for 1342 01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:49,639 Speaker 1: God save the Queen. I nearly had a heart attack. 1343 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you entirely, and you know, I love 1344 01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:55,800 Speaker 1: the American national anthem. It's my favorite of all time. 1345 01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:57,880 Speaker 1: I used to do a running club in Manhattan and 1346 01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:00,080 Speaker 1: every Sunday before we even went for a run, and 1347 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 1: we would sing the Star Spangled Banner. It's my favorite 1348 01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:05,479 Speaker 1: anthem of all time. And I think Trump is doing 1349 01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:09,599 Speaker 1: from an outsider's perspective, Trump is doing a phenomenal thing. 1350 01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:13,479 Speaker 1: We are looking towards America once again, and finally we 1351 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,920 Speaker 1: have someone standing up for your flag. You have someone 1352 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:20,600 Speaker 1: standing up for your country, and you have other people supporting. 1353 01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,719 Speaker 1: I've just seen that Direct TV, I believe, is offering 1354 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:28,040 Speaker 1: refunds to anybody who subscribes and has had an issue 1355 01:18:28,080 --> 01:18:30,800 Speaker 1: with the take the knee. You know, that's fantastic that 1356 01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:34,560 Speaker 1: advertisers and commercial sponsors are coming on board and refunding 1357 01:18:34,720 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 1: NFL money if you disapprove of this ridiculous, nonsense campaign. 1358 01:18:39,680 --> 01:18:41,880 Speaker 1: I think Trump is standing strong for the flag and 1359 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 1: it's making me feel really kind of reinvigorated that patriotism 1360 01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,519 Speaker 1: is still alive and well in one country on this 1361 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 1: planet at least. You know Haraldo, I mean the Dallas Cowboys. 1362 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:58,080 Speaker 1: One of those police officers that were that were viciously 1363 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 1: slain in Dallas last year. The NFL wouldn't allow it. 1364 01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:04,080 Speaker 1: You have another player wants to honor on the fifteenth 1365 01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: anniversary at nine eleven oh one. He wants to put 1366 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:10,400 Speaker 1: never Forget nine eleven oh one on his cleats. They said, 1367 01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,920 Speaker 1: you can't do it, you can't tork, you can't, you know, 1368 01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: fake shoot a bow and arrow. They have all sorts 1369 01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,240 Speaker 1: of restrictions in the NFL on freedom of speech, and 1370 01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:20,280 Speaker 1: I don't have any problem with any We make our 1371 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 1: living with the First Amendment. But you see what's happening 1372 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:27,400 Speaker 1: in the NFL's ratings are literally dropping. They lost advertisers today, 1373 01:19:27,520 --> 01:19:29,519 Speaker 1: and people are running as far away as they can 1374 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,800 Speaker 1: from the NFL because they're disgusted by it. You know, 1375 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,680 Speaker 1: I respect. I don't know if you hear man, but 1376 01:19:34,720 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 1: I really cad as you said. But let me say 1377 01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:41,960 Speaker 1: about the NFL protesters, I respect, but I stand with 1378 01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:43,599 Speaker 1: Bill and the web even though I know he's trying 1379 01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:46,080 Speaker 1: to backtrack down for se uh. He thinks that he 1380 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:49,439 Speaker 1: should have had solidarity with his teammates when he up 1381 01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:53,160 Speaker 1: there blowne Player and the Pittsburgh Steelers. He stood up 1382 01:19:53,160 --> 01:19:59,040 Speaker 1: with the the in the tonnel to say and with him, 1383 01:19:59,080 --> 01:20:01,600 Speaker 1: and I do say, and you know, this is a 1384 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:05,639 Speaker 1: kind of our country. Uh, you know, we're if we 1385 01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 1: don't have these uniting symbols. Then then what joint is it?

And then the time in the history of 1390 01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:25,639 Speaker 1: We're only gonna have to let you go for one reason, 1391 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 1: and that's for time constraints. And we could barely hear you. 1392 01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:33,479 Speaker 1: To be honest, you're going to congratulations on your nine 1393 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 1: o'clock I'll like you, my friend.

I 1469 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:19,240 Speaker 1: have no idea how I got involved in this, but 1470 01:24:19,439 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 1: I became the executive producer. I am very, very proud 1471 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 1: of the project. Um, the reason it's so great is 1472 01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:29,760 Speaker 1: way beyond me and uh. I think it's a movie 1473 01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:31,680 Speaker 1: that you can take the whole family too. And it's 1474 01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:34,640 Speaker 1: inspiring and it's uplifting, and it's frankly not anything you're 1475 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,560 Speaker 1: gonna get out of traditional Hollywood. And it is a 1476 01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:41,320 Speaker 1: riveting story and you're you're gonna have more twist, more turns, 1477 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 1: more plots that at the end of the day, I 1478 01:24:43,800 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 1: think we'll touch your heart. Well, let's put it this way. 1479 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 1: I would say of people that I have shown the 1480 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:53,120 Speaker 1: movie to have cried, including sweet baby James, and he 1481 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 1: doesn't cry about anything. All Right, we'll take a quick break. 1482 01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 1: We'll come back, wide open telephones toll free or numbers 1483 01:24:57,640 --> 01:25:00,240 Speaker 1: eight nine four one, sean if you to be a 1484 01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: part of the program, alright till the top of the hour. 1485 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:06,719 Speaker 1: We're gonna get to your calls here in a second. Alright, 1486 01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:08,600 Speaker 1: So we're in the swamp, We're in Washington, d C. 1487 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,160 Speaker 1: Paul Ryan is gonna be on tonight to talk about 1488 01:25:11,200 --> 01:25:14,320 Speaker 1: all things Congress and what's going on, and and certainly 1489 01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 1: they're the tax reform proposal. Um, I think that is 1490 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 1: the key, I honestly do. And we're gonna take care 1491 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,680 Speaker 1: of the forgotten men and women of the country. A 1492 01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:27,080 Speaker 1: Couple that with stopping illegal immigration. You couple that with 1493 01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 1: energy independence, and this is this is the key to 1494 01:25:31,240 --> 01:25:35,720 Speaker 1: economic growth. Seven brackets to three, repatriation at a low rate, 1495 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:38,720 Speaker 1: trillions of dollars will come in, and and lowering the 1496 01:25:38,800 --> 01:25:43,280 Speaker 1: corporate tax. The President was right, got to be the max. 1497 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:48,000 Speaker 1: Otherwise you're gonna lose any potential help and and support 1498 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 1: for the economy because it's just every single percentage. Remember 1499 01:25:52,000 --> 01:25:55,840 Speaker 1: corporations don't pay taxes anyway, but it'll incentivize them to 1500 01:25:55,960 --> 01:25:59,320 Speaker 1: spend and invest and create jobs, factories, manufacturing centers. We 1501 01:25:59,439 --> 01:26:03,200 Speaker 1: want that. Anyway. I was back with the Speaker and 1502 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 1: this is what his two promise was, and I'll play 1503 01:26:06,320 --> 01:26:09,040 Speaker 1: it and and I'll ask him about it tonight. For 1504 01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:12,559 Speaker 1: eight years, you guys had a plan. You kept saying 1505 01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:16,400 Speaker 1: and promising you repeal, replaced Obamacare, And I guess what 1506 01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:18,600 Speaker 1: people want to know is when are these things going 1507 01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:20,840 Speaker 1: to get done. We're exactly on the timeline that we 1508 01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:23,800 Speaker 1: designed for ourselves. Obamacare is coming next. Our bill is 1509 01:26:23,880 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 1: coming in March. First, it's regulatory reform because we had 1510 01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 1: this window of time to cancel bad Obama regulations. Then 1511 01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 1: we're doing Obamacare. After we're done with Obamacare. Then we're 1512 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,880 Speaker 1: doing our budget. And our budget is what the second budget, 1513 01:26:36,920 --> 01:26:40,320 Speaker 1: which will be tax reform. So we're doing two budgets 1514 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:42,720 Speaker 1: in one year, which has never been done before. This 1515 01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:45,000 Speaker 1: is faster than it's ever been done before. When I 1516 01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:47,800 Speaker 1: heard Repair, my head nearly explode. That's not the plan. 1517 01:26:48,040 --> 01:26:50,800 Speaker 1: The plan is to repeal and replace this law. Like 1518 01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 1: we said, we ran on a plan to repeal and 1519 01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:55,960 Speaker 1: replace it. Tom Price helped write that plan. He is 1520 01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:59,400 Speaker 1: now Donald Trump's Secretary of h is a consensus plan 1521 01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:02,519 Speaker 1: that's now being scored by the CBO. Correct, you're saying 1522 01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 1: to the American people and conservatives that are impatient, including myself, 1523 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 1: you agree with every item I mentioned, even extreme vetting. Yeah, 1524 01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:11,880 Speaker 1: we passed that bit a year ago in the House. 1525 01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 1: I know. Don't you now agree with building the wall? Yes? 1526 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:18,599 Speaker 1: Are you telling the American people vetting refugees, building the wall, repeal, replaced, 1527 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:21,439 Speaker 1: tax reform, all of this is going to be done 1528 01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 1: in two Inside the two hundred day window is the 1529 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:27,160 Speaker 1: regulatory reforms we talked about. It's the repeal and replace Obamacare. 1530 01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,960 Speaker 1: It's the budget, it's the rebuilding of our military, it's 1531 01:27:30,040 --> 01:27:32,000 Speaker 1: tax reform. Those are the things that we're working on. 1532 01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:34,120 Speaker 1: Any infrastructure, those are the things we're working on in 1533 01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 1: this two hundred accounts in the equation because that's in 1534 01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:39,519 Speaker 1: their edge. Well, we we see that as part of 1535 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 1: regulatory reform, but it's two hundred days. That's you think 1536 01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 1: that's duels? Is our plan? Yeah, and if and if 1537 01:27:43,880 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 1: there's any slippe, we'll finish it in the fall and 1538 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:46,600 Speaker 1: get it done before the end of the year. So 1539 01:27:46,640 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 1: if I come back in two hundred days, you're gonna 1540 01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 1: you're gonna go, well, I made a promise. We've got it. Well, 1541 01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:54,720 Speaker 1: because I think this is so here's what I'm saying. 1542 01:27:54,760 --> 01:27:56,519 Speaker 1: We've we've met this out for two hundred days. We 1543 01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 1: have a plan to do that. We're on schedule. But 1544 01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:03,080 Speaker 1: if if anything's slips, because it'll be another Supreme Court justice, yeah, 1545 01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:05,880 Speaker 1: or or a filibuster on a cabinet nominee that might 1546 01:28:05,920 --> 01:28:07,920 Speaker 1: slip us, but we're making sure that we do all 1547 01:28:07,960 --> 01:28:10,400 Speaker 1: of this in Okay, let's go to the budget, which 1548 01:28:10,439 --> 01:28:13,680 Speaker 1: is such a big issue. The president seven brackets to 1549 01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:17,320 Speaker 1: three corporate rate. I know you prefer twenty because that 1550 01:28:17,400 --> 01:28:20,800 Speaker 1: scores scores. Yeah, I have to get what we can 1551 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,360 Speaker 1: with the with the number, and you support repatriation multinational corporations. 1552 01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:25,960 Speaker 1: That will be huge for that's a lot of money 1553 01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:28,439 Speaker 1: that can come back into the economy, about three trillion dollars. 1554 01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:31,880 Speaker 1: Here's my headline of this interview that you're in pretty 1555 01:28:31,960 --> 01:28:34,760 Speaker 1: much full agreement with with what Donald Trump ran on 1556 01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:39,920 Speaker 1: and number two, in two hundred days from the legislative side, 1557 01:28:40,120 --> 01:28:42,400 Speaker 1: you are going to be implementing every aspect of that 1558 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:45,839 Speaker 1: agenda that we talked about. And just as a big headline, 1559 01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 1: we have and we have cushion in our schedule if 1560 01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:51,519 Speaker 1: if anything slips, because it's really because the Senate issues, 1561 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:53,880 Speaker 1: we still have time to accommodate all of this stuff 1562 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:59,360 Speaker 1: in even conditions. I have cushions built in the schedule 1563 01:28:59,760 --> 01:29:02,759 Speaker 1: to sure this all gets done in case something happens 1564 01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:04,840 Speaker 1: and go sideways on the Senate. I'm pretty sure that 1565 01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:07,280 Speaker 1: will stimulate the economy, get people back to work, and 1566 01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:09,560 Speaker 1: and get the economy movement again, which I think we 1567 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:12,519 Speaker 1: need what we're hired to do. All right, you see, 1568 01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:15,360 Speaker 1: all right? So that was the speaker when I interviewed 1569 01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 1: him last I don't know how many days is it, Linda, 1570 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 1: do you know at this point, it's like two or 1571 01:29:20,320 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 1: some odd days. Um, they're behind. The speaker rightly points 1572 01:29:25,240 --> 01:29:27,280 Speaker 1: out they passed a lot more bills than the Senate. 1573 01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:30,920 Speaker 1: That's true, but I think most Americans want it done. 1574 01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:34,240 Speaker 1: And so we'll see where that all plays out tonight, 1575 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 1: and I'll be asking a lot of the questions. I'm 1576 01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:38,240 Speaker 1: sure that a lot of you want to hear answered. 1577 01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:41,120 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our phones.

It's funny because you know, there's so many 1591 01:30:23,439 --> 01:30:26,160 Speaker 1: people that I think that I've not changed. You know, 1592 01:30:26,200 --> 01:30:29,639 Speaker 1: I've been a Reagan Conservative my whole adult life on radio, 1593 01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, and all these people say, well, you know, 1594 01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:36,760 Speaker 1: nationalism and populism has replaced conservatism, And I'm like, well, 1595 01:30:36,840 --> 01:30:38,880 Speaker 1: what part of the Trump agenda is different? Tell me, 1596 01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:42,720 Speaker 1: because it's everything I've been advocating my whole career. If 1597 01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:45,320 Speaker 1: you anyway, but I think, thank you so much. What's 1598 01:30:45,320 --> 01:30:48,040 Speaker 1: on your mind today? You're welcome. Well, this whole NFL 1599 01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:51,080 Speaker 1: protest thing to me, let me just for this out there, 1600 01:30:51,120 --> 01:30:53,479 Speaker 1: it's to me, it's just a dripping and ironing I 1601 01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:56,479 Speaker 1: just think about this. How ironic is it? And how 1602 01:30:56,600 --> 01:30:59,080 Speaker 1: ignorant of history do you have to be to not 1603 01:30:59,280 --> 01:31:01,760 Speaker 1: know that the lag that these players are using as 1604 01:31:01,760 --> 01:31:04,439 Speaker 1: a symbol of oppression, I mean, it was the flag 1605 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:07,000 Speaker 1: of the Union Army that lost three hundred and sixty 1606 01:31:07,479 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: men fighting to abolish slavery in the Civil War. I 1607 01:31:10,160 --> 01:31:12,719 Speaker 1: mean that there's a lot of shed blood under that flag, 1608 01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:15,040 Speaker 1: and I think that they are more than iron and 1609 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:18,280 Speaker 1: ignorance is just that the whole football standard Neil thing 1610 01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:20,919 Speaker 1: is about respect or maybe just a lack of respect. 1611 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 1: And uh, it just shows me how little thoughts been 1612 01:31:24,439 --> 01:31:25,920 Speaker 1: put into this whole thing. But you know, when you're 1613 01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:28,599 Speaker 1: trying to win a flifical argument, you know, thinking isn't 1614 01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:33,679 Speaker 1: necessarily required. Look, there's been over six hundred and fifty 1615 01:31:33,760 --> 01:31:38,639 Speaker 1: thousand Americans killed under that flag for a variety of reasons. 1616 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:42,160 Speaker 1: The greatness in America is not that we ever claim 1617 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,160 Speaker 1: we're perfect. You know. It's one of the things that 1618 01:31:44,320 --> 01:31:46,760 Speaker 1: frustrates me is that I don't know what it is 1619 01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:49,920 Speaker 1: about the left, but if some prominent conservative or Christian 1620 01:31:50,040 --> 01:31:53,560 Speaker 1: has any personal issue in their life that ow hypocrites. 1621 01:31:54,080 --> 01:31:56,599 Speaker 1: What if you know, and I don't know, I'm looking. 1622 01:31:56,640 --> 01:31:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm not the best person to talk about religion. I mean, 1623 01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:01,519 Speaker 1: I think Franklin Graham is so much better than me. 1624 01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:04,720 Speaker 1: And but but I do know this. I thought that 1625 01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:07,120 Speaker 1: that forgiveness was supposed to be a part of it. 1626 01:32:07,160 --> 01:32:09,920 Speaker 1: I think the recognition that we've all sinned is supposed 1627 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:11,800 Speaker 1: to be a part of it. I think the fact 1628 01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:14,880 Speaker 1: that people want to be better people but acknowledge that 1629 01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:18,599 Speaker 1: they're flawed and they failed. Well, like people aren't perfect, 1630 01:32:18,880 --> 01:32:22,320 Speaker 1: neither are governments, and neither are the people that found 1631 01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:24,080 Speaker 1: these governments. And if you listen, there was a great 1632 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:28,800 Speaker 1: line by Thomas Paine seventeen seventy six where he literally says, 1633 01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:34,439 Speaker 1: where the guides and dictates of conscience God irresistibly obeyed, 1634 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:37,840 Speaker 1: we wouldn't need governments. We wouldn't need them because we'd 1635 01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:40,080 Speaker 1: be perfect. We're not perfect. And then he goes on 1636 01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:43,559 Speaker 1: to explain the fundamental foundation in the beginnings of government 1637 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:45,640 Speaker 1: and government he says, in its best state is but 1638 01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:48,599 Speaker 1: a necessary evil. But it's in its worst state, an 1639 01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:52,880 Speaker 1: intolerable one. And as a supporter of limited government, it 1640 01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:58,280 Speaker 1: it relies on a people united, It relies on the 1641 01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:02,160 Speaker 1: general goodness of the human soul. You know, we're always 1642 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:05,639 Speaker 1: gonna have evil, and if America doesn't lead the battle 1643 01:33:05,680 --> 01:33:07,679 Speaker 1: against it, I don't I don't know how the world 1644 01:33:07,800 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 1: survives right now, because we've got we're the only ones 1645 01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:14,559 Speaker 1: with the power, We're the only ones with the moral Frankly, 1646 01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:17,760 Speaker 1: integrity to get it done. And yeah, we're imperfect. Yeah 1647 01:33:17,800 --> 01:33:20,960 Speaker 1: we have disagreements, Yeah we have disagreements in our founding. 1648 01:33:21,479 --> 01:33:23,080 Speaker 1: But I think there are people on the left that 1649 01:33:23,200 --> 01:33:27,000 Speaker 1: just want to literally just ransacked rough shot over the 1650 01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:30,320 Speaker 1: whole thing and throw the entire baby out with the bathwater, 1651 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 1: not recognizing all the good that has come of of 1652 01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:39,240 Speaker 1: those people that built this country and drew up this 1653 01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:42,720 Speaker 1: constitution of we the people, so that we can make 1654 01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:46,439 Speaker 1: the changes as we deem appropriate and we can become 1655 01:33:46,479 --> 01:33:49,240 Speaker 1: a more perfect union. All of those things means something 1656 01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:50,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we teach our kids, any of us 1657 01:33:50,840 --> 01:33:54,439 Speaker 1: at times. I'll give you the last word. Well, I 1658 01:33:54,520 --> 01:33:57,240 Speaker 1: think you're right, and I think that if if if 1659 01:33:57,280 --> 01:34:00,559 Speaker 1: people knew their history, they would know that a lot 1660 01:34:00,680 --> 01:34:03,920 Speaker 1: of blood ship. Uh, we're not perfect, but that's the 1661 01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:06,080 Speaker 1: reason we fight, have fought over the years, is because 1662 01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 1: of our imperfections. Um, but I think we're still, like 1663 01:34:09,360 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 1: Reagan said, we're the last great We are the last 1664 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:17,200 Speaker 1: great hope for man on this earth, no doubt about it. Alright, 1665 01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:19,880 Speaker 1: eight D nine four one Sean, if you want to 1666 01:34:19,920 --> 01:34:21,879 Speaker 1: be a part of the program, John is in Florida, 1667 01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:24,120 Speaker 1: John High, how are you. We're glad you called. Welcome 1668 01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:27,000 Speaker 1: to the Sean Hannity Show. Hey Sean, thanks for taking 1669 01:34:27,080 --> 01:34:30,760 Speaker 1: my call. What's going on, sir? I just wanted to 1670 01:34:30,760 --> 01:34:33,000 Speaker 1: give you work for the NFL ticket office for an 1671 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:35,320 Speaker 1: NFL team, and what kind of wanted to give you 1672 01:34:35,439 --> 01:34:38,519 Speaker 1: the feedback that we've gotten since Monday, us, since our 1673 01:34:38,560 --> 01:34:41,439 Speaker 1: first day back after the Big Game Sunday, hundreds of 1674 01:34:41,520 --> 01:34:44,719 Speaker 1: calls each day about people either a wanting to cancel 1675 01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:48,680 Speaker 1: their tickets, complaining about the you know, the disrespect of 1676 01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: the flag, and from all types of young, old women, men, 1677 01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:54,840 Speaker 1: And it's been overwhelming. To be honest with you, we're 1678 01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:58,200 Speaker 1: told not to stop tell anyone about it. Well, you're 1679 01:34:58,200 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 1: told not to tell the truth. I hope you give 1680 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:01,720 Speaker 1: and oh you are giving a fake name. I was 1681 01:35:01,760 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 1: just told them here all right. So but the point is, 1682 01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 1: you know, it's so expensive for people to go to 1683 01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:09,760 Speaker 1: a ball game. I mean, if you look at the 1684 01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:13,479 Speaker 1: average salary meeting income of Americans, you know, when you're 1685 01:35:13,520 --> 01:35:16,880 Speaker 1: paying close to five bucks just to walk in the 1686 01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,280 Speaker 1: door and get parking, and then if you want a 1687 01:35:19,360 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 1: beer or two beers and a couple of hot dogs 1688 01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 1: and a couple of cokes. How much do you charge 1689 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:27,960 Speaker 1: for a beer at your stadium? Nine bucks? And you 1690 01:35:28,040 --> 01:35:29,560 Speaker 1: can't bring in your own beer. You can get you 1691 01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:33,160 Speaker 1: twelve pack for nine bucks, you know. So they're making 1692 01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:35,800 Speaker 1: a lot of money and and and people enjoy it. 1693 01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:37,640 Speaker 1: They're willing to say for it. They're willing to make 1694 01:35:37,680 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 1: it a big special day. But then if they go 1695 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 1: there and it becomes okay the players taking the field, 1696 01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:46,680 Speaker 1: don't take the field for the anthem or their disrespect 1697 01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:49,519 Speaker 1: in the anthem and their family. I'm sure most people 1698 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:51,519 Speaker 1: have people that fought in the military, are served in 1699 01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:55,600 Speaker 1: the military. It's disrespectful to them and the country and 1700 01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:58,360 Speaker 1: the military and the anthem and the flag, and it 1701 01:35:58,400 --> 01:36:01,920 Speaker 1: shows disunity. And all those guys on the field, they're 1702 01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,400 Speaker 1: making on average two point four million dollars a year. 1703 01:36:04,439 --> 01:36:06,680 Speaker 1: That's a lot of money. And the people in the 1704 01:36:06,800 --> 01:36:09,679 Speaker 1: stands on average are making forty grand or fifty grand 1705 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:12,240 Speaker 1: a year. And it's a big deal for them to 1706 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:14,559 Speaker 1: spend that thousand dollars to go to the one game 1707 01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:17,280 Speaker 1: that they look forward to every year. Are you giving 1708 01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,439 Speaker 1: them refunds or no? Well, no, we're told to take 1709 01:36:21,479 --> 01:36:23,720 Speaker 1: down their information. And I just wanted you know no 1710 01:36:23,840 --> 01:36:25,320 Speaker 1: one was getting a refund, to be honest with you, 1711 01:36:25,400 --> 01:36:26,920 Speaker 1: but I I just wanted to say, after a big 1712 01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,800 Speaker 1: win on a Sunday, we normally would be pumped to 1713 01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:33,120 Speaker 1: come in and sell tickets because we make UH commission, 1714 01:36:33,439 --> 01:36:35,400 Speaker 1: and it was we didn't sell one ticket. I mean, 1715 01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:37,880 Speaker 1: being honest with you, I haven't sold one ticket since 1716 01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:40,600 Speaker 1: Sunday after a huge win. So it's it's really, it 1717 01:36:40,680 --> 01:36:43,719 Speaker 1: really stinks all the way around. What are your fellows, 1718 01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:45,760 Speaker 1: if your fellow workers here in the same thing, and 1719 01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:48,320 Speaker 1: and when you take their information down, is it that 1720 01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 1: they're going to call these people and reach out to 1721 01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:53,200 Speaker 1: them or you don't know? Um, well I do. They 1722 01:36:53,240 --> 01:36:55,439 Speaker 1: do get calls back from some managers, depending on how 1723 01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:57,280 Speaker 1: long they've been if a lot of people are just 1724 01:36:57,400 --> 01:37:00,280 Speaker 1: calling and complaining saying they're not going to but there's 1725 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:02,880 Speaker 1: been plenty of season ticket holders that are asking about 1726 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:05,040 Speaker 1: a refund, and some people that say that they have 1727 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:07,639 Speaker 1: attorneys and they're looking at the contract language and it's 1728 01:37:07,680 --> 01:37:11,040 Speaker 1: just been it's extremely overwhelming, Sean, all because of disrespecting 1729 01:37:11,080 --> 01:37:13,719 Speaker 1: the flag. It really makes no sense. Noll. The NFL 1730 01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:16,960 Speaker 1: is in a bit of a quandary anyway, John thanks 1731 01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:20,120 Speaker 1: for sharing that information with us.
