1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,600
Speaker 1: I think you've seen President Trump already do it two

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: or three times in the last five or six months,

3
00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: where different members were getting a little upity against the speaker.

4
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 2: You know, is the speaker perfect?

5
00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 3: No?

6
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,880
Speaker 1: Is he a good guy? Yes, he is trying his

7
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: hard to keep united. I think we have to study

8
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: history twenty sixteen. We squandered way too much time when

9
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: we had all three branches at government.

10
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: We can't do it again. Yeah, that is Utah Rep.

11
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: Michael Rooley. He was on Fox News Live and the

12
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: absolutely correct, absolutely on point. The biggest obstacle to President

13
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: Trump doing what needs to be done, Republican infighting. Cut

14
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: the nonsense. You know Trump's pieces, they are in place. Actually,

15
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 2: most Americans are with him. You take a look at

16
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: most Americans are with Trump and what the agenda looks like.

17
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: Why wouldn't the Republican Conference be with him too. Got

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: to stop the the you know, sanctimonious stuff and do

19
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: what needs to be done. Get on the same page,

20
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: lead and let Trump and Musk and Ramswamian company do

21
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: what needs to be done. Merry Christmas, Happy Hannah con

Speaker 2: wherever you get your podcast. As we take a look

29
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: at twenty five days, twenty five days until we have

30
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 2: sanity that can be restored in this country, we've got

31
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 2: to do what needs to be done each and every

32
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: single day. You know that Donald Trump was working what

33
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: seems like most of the day on Christmas Day, I

34
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: think tells you all you need to know about how

35
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: all important these days, each one of them right now

36
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: until Inauguration Day. Is you now his indication that by

37
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: about two o'clock probacce, like two o'clock in the afternoon

38
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 2: on January twentieth, the government's going to be fully operational.

39
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 2: His administration is going to be fully operational. But that's

40
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: only going to happen if Republicans cut the crap and

41
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: do what needs to be done. So let's kind of

42
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,079
Speaker 2: walk through this a little bit. First hours, talking about

43
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 2: the absurdity that is our federal government and the role

44
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: that Doge can and needs to play in this going

45
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,640
Speaker 2: from five government agencies at the time of this country's founding,

46
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: going for over one hundred and thirty years without a

47
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 2: permanent federal income tax, to now where we have four

48
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 2: hundred and thirty federal agencies that I bet you if

49
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: he got every single member of Congress together and let

50
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: them name every single agency they could name, you would

51
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: have most that couldn't be named by single member of

52
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 2: Congress that votes to fund these agencies that they don't

53
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: even really know exist. The elimination of that kind of nonsense,

54
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 2: it creates freedom in so many ways. It gets back

55
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 2: to the country as founded. And pointed out that Elon

56
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: Musk when he took over twenty Twitter cut eighty percent

57
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: of the Twitter staff eighty percent. You take a look

58
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: at X today, it's a better platform. I think we

59
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 2: could cut eighty percent the federal government and end up

60
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: with a better result. There's any doubt in my mind.

61
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 2: So as we take a look at the Trump pieces

62
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 2: being in place, Yeah, I got some of the drama

63
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 2: that still goes on with cabinet selections in the Senate.

64
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: You know that the whole Gates thing and by the way,

65
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: Pam Bondi as a lording and I can tell you

66
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 2: she is going to be phenomenal. She is going to

67
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 2: be an outstanding Attorney General for the United States. And

68
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: you take a look at the the Hageseth situation, RFK Junior,

69
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: you know, Tolsi, all this stuff, and people you know,

70
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: want to be dramatic about that. The bottom line is

71
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 2: Republicans need to get on board. Trump is a man

72
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: with a plan who's on a mission. Give you an idea.

73
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: Let's kind of take a look at how quickly he's

74
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: moving compared to the first time. Back then, President elect

75
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: Trump nominated his top fifteen cabinet officials by January eighteenth

76
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 2: of twenty seventeen. January eighteenth of twenty seventeen, two days

77
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: before he was worn into office. You know how long

78
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 2: it took Trump to nominate his top fifteen cabinet officials.

79
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 2: He got there in record time. This time around, he

80
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: got there on November twenty fourth. November twenty fourth, ever,

81
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: a month ago, he had already arrived where he hadn't

82
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 2: arrived until January eighteenth the first time around. He's not

83
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 2: missing around and timing matters now, in part due to

84
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 2: the Trump administration's slow start and first selecting cabinet officials

85
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: eight years ago. Yeah, Trump's first one hundred days they're

86
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 2: almost completely consumed. But just getting his cabinet in place,

87
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 2: it took Trump ninety seven days. We was talking about

88
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 2: the first one hundred days, how important that is, you know,

89
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 2: getting things done. It took Trump ninety seven days from

90
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 2: the time that he was sworn into office on the

91
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 2: first go until the time they even had his whole

92
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 2: cabinet together. That kind of stuff can't happen this time around.

93
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: You know, if a president is aiming for maximum efficiency,

94
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 2: as obviously Trump is, you got fourteen days in particular

95
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: in January that are among the most critical for a

96
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 2: president elect to take advantage of. Now you get into

97
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 2: January sixth, and we've got to get the business the

98
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 2: country done. I mean, imagine if we don't even get

99
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 2: a speaker together, and then we can't even go through

100
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:05,039
Speaker 2: the process to make sure that Donald Trump is the

101
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 2: next president of the United States. You want to talk

102
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 2: about republican and competence, You imagine that not getting done

103
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: and what that would do to slow down the Trump agenda.

104
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: What that would do in terms of kaf people want

105
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 2: to talk about January sixth, twenty twenty. Imagine not being

106
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,119
Speaker 2: able to even get to that point because we can't

107
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 2: get leadership in Congress. It's absurd. Cut the crap Republicans

108
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 2: already by having nominated his cabinet picks, the ones that

109
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: require required the Senate confirmation process, the vetting process already

110
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 2: happened with these people. A lot of the nonsense that's

111
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 2: played out in the news media. It takes us to

112
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: that instruct a fourteen day window in January that needs

113
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 2: to take place on schedule, because with the top cabinet picks,

114
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: until you get the incoming Senate majority, you get Trump

115
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 2: confirmed as the next president of the United States, you

116
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,760
Speaker 2: get the next Senate majority leader in John Thune, who

117
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 2: can then take temperature checks each of those nominees and

118
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 2: then start getting them through that confirmation process. So you

119
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: can pretty much put those votes out there on a

120
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 2: conveyor belt. Why so that by the time we get

121
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: to January twentieth, we're not taking a look at trying

122
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 2: to get to the vetting process and maybe some votes

123
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 2: on the Trump nominees, but they're just being sworn in.

124
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: To give you an idea. You go back to January

125
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 2: twentieth to twenty seventeen. You know how many cabinet nominees

126
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 2: requiring Senate confirmation or confirmed the time he ended up

127
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 2: taking the oath of office. You had two only two Secretary

128
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: of Defense, Secretary of Homeland Security. That was it. And

129
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: then on January twentieth of twenty seventeen, only one more

130
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: confirmation took place. That happened to be Mike Pompeo for

131
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 2: Secretary of State. By the end of the first day

132
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 2: of the Trump administration, get three three of his cabinet

133
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 2: officials that are in place. Absurd, right, You didn't even

134
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: have another vote on another nominade that took place for

135
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 2: another three days back in twenty seventeen, because again in

136
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: competent Republican leadership slowing stuff down. Well, Trump's nomination pays

137
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: this time around, which is given the Senate all the

138
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: time they need to get their job done, regardless of

139
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 2: whether you might have controversies whatever else. The bottom line

140
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 2: is that Trump can have his entire cabinet in place

141
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: on day one in office, and that needs to be

142
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 2: the goal here. The pieces are in place, Trump's ready

143
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 2: to roll right away, working on Christmas Day to try

144
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 2: to get there. Which how many of these members of

145
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: Congress that are our grand standing and that want to

146
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 2: slow up the Trump agenda and the name of their

147
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: own righteousness, how many of them? Do you think we're

148
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 2: working really hard yesterday? So yeah, then you take a

149
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 2: look at the American people, oh, by the way, us,

150
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: and how do we view Trump? Two point zero? We

151
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 2: view him as being better than ever. You take a

152
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 2: look at the thirty one states he won, the three

153
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 2: hundred and ten electoral College votes, winning the national popular

154
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 2: vote by two and a half million votes. There's no

155
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: doubt that Donald Trump's third presidential election his best ever,

156
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 2: best by Republican presidential candidates and George H. W. Bush

157
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:32,199
Speaker 2: in eighty eight. So maybe it's most appropriate that Trump

158
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 2: currently has his highest approval ratings ever. You take a

159
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 2: look at everything that has been for Trump, the one

160
00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 2: thing that he never had was what positive favorability ratings,

161
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 2: positive approval ratings. Even when he's had his peak in

162
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 2: twenty nineteen early twenty twenty, before the VID, you never

163
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 2: got to where a majority of Americans viewed him favorably

164
00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: and approved that he was in a good position. One

165
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 2: without COVID, no doubt, but people overwhelmingly for everything that

166
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 2: happened to Trump, of course, said yeah, we screwed up,

167
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: We screwed up. And so here we are, with all

168
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 2: the stuff that has played out, all this grand standing

169
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:23,360
Speaker 2: by Republicans, the controversial sending confirmation picks, most Americans are going, yeah,

170
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 2: you know what, I'm liking what I'm seeing, I'm liking

171
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 2: what I'm hearing. Most Americans approve of this transition process.

172
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: That wasn't the case the first time around for Trump.

173
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,200
Speaker 2: And you take a look at what we had coming

174
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: into this year. Biden had the lowest approval rating by

175
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 2: any first term president in American history coming into this year.

176
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 2: Let alone where we are now, I mean, and approval

177
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 2: points started back in the nineteen thirties. And so then

178
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 2: you take a look at where we are now with

179
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 2: Trump having the highest approval, the highest favorite ability ratings

180
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 2: that he's had at any point, but the majority of

181
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 2: the American people going, yeah, so, why is it that

182
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 2: you would have Republican infighting? Why is it that you

183
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 2: would have the potential for a slowing down of the process.

184
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: You know, there's a time for that kind of fighting

185
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 2: and potential in fighting whatever else that is not now

186
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,719
Speaker 2: you get on board with the Trump agenda. So the

187
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 2: bottom line is that's what Americans want. I mean, obviously

188
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 2: he said, hey, you know what, we really screw things

189
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 2: up four years ago. We want Trump back. We and

190
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: by even larger numbers, his favorability, his approval is only

191
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: grown since selection day. And now what we just going

192
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 2: to blow this whole thing. We're going to get to

193
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 2: January sixth and not be able to be functional in Congress.

194
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: Now it's time to get things done. It's time to

195
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 2: get things done, and it's time to get on board now.

196
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 2: According to Pew, fifty three percent of America currently approve

197
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: of the way that Trump has laid things out, compared

198
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 2: to forty six percent who don't. That is a net

199
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: approval ratings twenty two percent better than Biden's. Do you

200
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 2: want to know where Congress is? Speaking of twenty two percent,

201
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 2: it's about there. It's about there. And how many members

202
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 2: of Congress are only there because of Trump's coattails this

203
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 2: time around as well? And speaking of the individual plans,

204
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 2: fifty nine percent of Americans approved Trump's economic plans as

205
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 2: he laid them out. Fifty four percent criminal justice, immigration

206
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 2: deportation plans, which is huge fifty three percent foreign policy

207
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 2: what they're hearing there. So yeah, the pieces are in place.

208
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 2: Trump's ready to roll. But also importantly, for the first

209
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: time yet you got a broad majority of the country

210
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 2: that's behind this. So Republicans in Congress have to be too.

211
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 2: That is absolutely critical to making America great again. I'm

212
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 2: Brian Mudd in for Clay and Buck. We'll be right back.

213
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 4: Clay, Travis and Buck sext telling it like it is.

214
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 4: Find them on the free iHeartRadio app or wherever you

215
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 4: get your podcasts.

216
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 5: Everywhere you look, you find more of this stuff. A

217
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,319
Speaker 5: trillion dollars. That means we found a lot of waste.

218
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: But it's everywhere.

219
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 5: It's in all the big departments, in the Department of State,

220
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 5: it's in nih it's in the National Science Foundation, and

221
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 5: people wonder why does it exist? Every year we have

222
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 5: this department of doze. Are they going to be able

223
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 5: to get rid of it?

224
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 2: Yeah? Senator rand Paul out this week with his annual

225
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 2: Festivus Report, the Government Waste Report, where by the way,

226
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 2: I've always appreciated that reference say, look just the easy

227
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 2: stuff we can find, not anything that is even remotely

228
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 2: controversial to the average person, but just absolute nonsense. Kind

229
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 2: of trillion dollars in waste. Here we are over thirty

230
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 2: six trillion dollars in debt and one trillion they can

231
00:13:55,320 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: just easily point to in Ran Paul's Festivus Report that

232
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: could go right now as we take a look at

233
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: what needs to happen, what needs to change twenty five

234
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,839
Speaker 2: days from now, But what only can change twenty five

235
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 2: days from now if we don't have Republican infighting, if

236
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 2: we have Republicans on board with Donald Trump's agenda. And

237
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 2: part of what's so important about this agenda is even

238
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 2: understanding it. And I wonder you have the whole you know,

239
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,960
Speaker 2: Project twenty twenty five dealed by the Heritage Foundation. That's

240
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 2: you know, the godless souls and slanderous news media tried to,

241
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 2: you know, just tie Trump around and bastardize and everything else.

242
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 2: Trump actually did come out with his own agenda this year,

243
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 2: Agenda forty seven. It's been there on his website for

244
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: a while, it's there right now, and it's his twenty

245
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 2: point plan to save America. He makes it pretty clear

246
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 2: what Trump in to save America. You know, the top

247
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 2: item in his agenda, seal the border and stop the

248
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 2: migrant invasion. Okay, that's important. That's important. You know what's

249
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 2: important making sure that Donald Trump is in place on

250
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 2: January twentieth so he can seal the border and stop

251
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 2: the migrant invasion. Now, we're not trying to fight over

252
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: to who the next Speaker of the House is going

253
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 2: to be. For example, the second item an agenda forty seven,

254
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: Trump's plan carry out the largest deportation operation in American history. Okay,

255
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 2: so number one, you stop the bleeding, seal the border,

256
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 2: stop the invasion. Number two, carry out the deportation, the

257
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 2: largest deportation operation in American history. He's gonna need his

258
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: people in place to be able to do that, rightman's

259
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 2: ready to go. Number three, end inflation and make America

260
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 2: affordable again. That'd be nice, right, How would you like

261
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: to start saving money pretty close to January twentieth. Well,

262
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 2: it's really important that Donald Trump is in place, that

263
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 2: his agenda is on track, that his officials are there

264
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 2: to do what they need to do to be able

265
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 2: to make that happen. Number four, make America the dominant

266
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: energy producer in the world by far, and for five.

267
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 2: Stop outsourcing turn the United States into a manufacturing superpower.

268
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 2: There's only the first five. Be right back with more.

269
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 2: Brian Mudd in for Clay and Buck Flay, Travis and

270
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 2: Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth.

271
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 5: Ultimately it takes Congress. Congress has to get rid of

272
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 5: the spending. Those can point out the spending problems and

273
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 5: the ways, the same way I've been pointing it out.

274
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 5: But the reason it's not eliminated is I don't have

275
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 5: the votes to get rid of the spending. So I

276
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 5: am very hopeful that DOJE will draw attention to this

277
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 5: the same way I've been drawing attention to it.

278
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,400
Speaker 2: Don't have the votes to get rid of it. That

279
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 2: is really unfortunate if you have a Republican majority incoming

280
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 2: again needing to get with the program, get with the

281
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: Trump agenda. That Rand Paul on Fox News. By the way,

282
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: speaking of Fox News, Marion Williamson is you know, she's

283
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 2: run for president as a Democrat a couple of times,

284
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 2: never really got out of the starting gate. She is

285
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:34,920
Speaker 2: now looking to take the reins at the DNC. She's

286
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: running for DNC leader. You know, it's interesting when you

287
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: take a look at Marian Williamson, and you go. You

288
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: know who's making a lot of sense on the left

289
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 2: right now? Is that one? This gives you an idea

290
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 2: about how far they're gone. Party probably would be in

291
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 2: better shape if she were running it. As you take

292
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:55,400
Speaker 2: a look at rand Paul his Festivust Report out this

293
00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 2: week detailing the annual waste as easy to find. Yeah,

294
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 2: his Festivus Report isn't really the controversial stuff. It's just

295
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: kind of the nonsense. You take a look at and go,

296
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 2: what we spend like a billion dollars on training trainees

297
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 2: in South America? Was that a good use of tax dollars?

298
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 2: You know, those kinds of things. That's what's in his

299
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,679
Speaker 2: Festivus report. It's your money, as we're over thirty six

300
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 2: trillion dollars in debt. But the other thing that's so

301
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 2: important again is it's your freedom right. So Brian Mudd

302
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 2: in for Clay and Buck and as I mentioned in

303
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 2: the first hour, with five federal agencies at the time

304
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,160
Speaker 2: of our founding, we're at four hundred and thirty right now,

305
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 2: four thirty how many can you name?

306
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 3: Go?

307
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 2: More importantly, how many can the members of Congress that

308
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 2: have funded them go? And so you know, this is

309
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,879
Speaker 2: one of the questions that comes up, well, can we

310
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 2: just get rid of these agencies? In some cases that

311
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 2: that could be extremely difficult. What isn't funding If you

312
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 2: don't fund these agencies, well they're not going to be

313
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 2: able to really operate, are they. And so with Republicans

314
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 2: in control of Congress and the new Congress absolutely can

315
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 2: defund these agencies, can absolutely take a look at ran

316
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: Paul's Festus Report and say, yeah, let's cut all that crap.

317
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,919
Speaker 2: Can absolutely take a look at the recommendations that are

318
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,280
Speaker 2: going to come down from Doge and act on them.

319
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 2: It's a choice. And that's why it's important right now

320
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: that every elected Republican in Congress gets their button gear

321
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 2: and gets behind Donald Trump's agenda, which, by the way,

322
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 2: and the previous segment by talking about what it actually is,

323
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 2: Agenda forty seven, you know, it's been laid out for

324
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,919
Speaker 2: a long time, hasn't been talked about, you know, just

325
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 2: in the twenty point plan that it actually is. But

326
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 2: it's straightforward again. Number one, seal the border, stop the

327
00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 2: migrant invasion. Number two, carry out the largest deportation operation

328
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 2: and American history. Number three end inflation and make America

329
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 2: affordable again. Remember how low inflation was barely one percent

330
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 2: when Trump left office. Number four, make America the dominant

331
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 2: energy producer in the world by far. Speaking of things

332
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: that were great by the end of his administration, how

333
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,479
Speaker 2: much were you paying for a gallon of gas back then?

334
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 2: A couple bucks? Number five stop outsourcing and turned the

335
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 2: United States into a manufacturing superpower. And of course tariff's

336
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 2: going to play a role in all that policy as well.

337
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:40,200
Speaker 2: Number six. Number six large tax cuts for workers and

338
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,160
Speaker 2: no tax on tips. Of course, what he has run

339
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,479
Speaker 2: on with his tax policy, and speaking of Republican unity

340
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,160
Speaker 2: next year, this is critical for any number of reasons because,

341
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 2: as it stands, the Trump tax policy, the Tax Cut

342
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 2: and Jobs Act that was passed in twenty seventeen, that expires.

343
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: That expires, so your taxes will go higher if Republicans

344
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 2: can't get their butts in gear and pass something that

345
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 2: is even better. That is what Trump is proposed in

346
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,439
Speaker 2: with the no tax on tips, the no tax on

347
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 2: over time, no tax, and Social Security, and who knows,

348
00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 2: may be rethinking the federal income tax altogether, which he

349
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 2: has stated as a possibility, though it is an explicit

350
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 2: lead part of his twenty point plan right now, But

351
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:28,119
Speaker 2: what is number seven? Defend our Constitution, our Bill of rights,

352
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:33,160
Speaker 2: our fundamental freedoms, including freedom of speech, freedom of religion,

353
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 2: and the right to keep in bare arms. His eighth

354
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 2: item prevent World War three, restore peace in Europe and

355
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 2: the Middle East, and build. And this is interesting because

356
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 2: that first part of his eighth agenda item here prevent

357
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 2: World War three. I think just simply by being president

358
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 2: elect is the only a reason that we're not currently

359
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 2: in World War three. And I still kind of can

360
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 2: say to win, if we can get to January twentieth,

361
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 2: then we're not in it. But the restoration of peace

362
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 2: in Europe in the Middle East? How easy is it

363
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 2: to forget where we were in the Middle East? Remember

364
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 2: when Trump left office, not only was Jerusalem finally recognized

365
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:20,480
Speaker 2: by the United States, you actually had Israel and Saudi

366
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: Arabia talking about normalized relations. You didn't have the new

367
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 2: axes of Iran in Russia. Remember, Iran is in just Iran,

368
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 2: Iran is Russia. Iran is also China. You go work

369
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 2: backwards to go China is Russia is Iran is little

370
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 2: rocked man in North Korea, is Venezuela, is Cuba, is Nicaragua,

371
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: all the bad actors that are aligned, which if you

372
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 2: take a look at the actions, they've all acted badly together, right,

373
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 2: no coincidence here. So simply by instituting him in his policies,

374
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,439
Speaker 2: we're likely to see a lot of the nonsense. Stop

375
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:08,639
Speaker 2: the stuff that never would have started in the first place.

376
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:15,359
Speaker 2: But the second part of number eight, build a great

377
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 2: iron dome missile defense shield over our entire country, all

378
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 2: made in America. That one really isn't talks about much,

379
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 2: and to the extent that I've come across anybody who's

380
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 2: really talked about it, your godless hole of Slatter's news media,

381
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 2: for the most part, you know, they scoffed it the

382
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 2: way that they did Reagan right when he was talking

383
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 2: about STI, which ended up becoming extraordinarily effectual. So, yes,

384
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 2: Trump would like to see an iron dome type of

385
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 2: equivalent over the United States, not just in Israel, which,

386
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,199
Speaker 2: by the way, if somebody's going to be able to

387
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 2: create that, I don't know, you think Elon Musk might

388
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 2: be that guy. For example, Number nine and the weaponization

389
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 2: of government against the American people wouldn't that be nice?

390
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 2: Wouldn't that be nice? Number ten, stop the migrant crime epidemic,

391
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 2: Demolish the foreign drug cartels, crush gang violence, and lock

392
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 2: up violent offenders. Kind of important here now it goes

393
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 2: along with, you know, where he starts, the deportation, the

394
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 2: closing the border. But you've also got to you also

395
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:37,120
Speaker 2: got to make sure that the sanctuary governments that's where

396
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 2: this really comes into play, are dealt with. As we

397
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: continue to hear about all these sanctuary governments, Oregon, you know,

398
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 2: being the latest to say, we're putting out a playbook.

399
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 2: We're putting out to you know, the state of Orgon

400
00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 2: all of our local governments, making sure they can know

401
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 2: we're a real sanctuary state and making sure they stand

402
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 2: up to the big bad Trump administration that actually wants

403
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: to take people that are not legally in this country

404
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 2: and remove them from this country. How dare they.

405
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 6: Right?

406
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 2: So stop the bi great crime epidemic. This basically in

407
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 2: so many ways is like, look, the whole sanctuary stuff,

408
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,880
Speaker 2: it's going to stop, just as we've been told all

409
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 2: throughout the Buying administration, and just as Trump had to

410
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 2: fight in his first administration to get his policies on

411
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 2: immigration through all the court battles and everything else to

412
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 2: where he eventually won and we did have remained in Mexico,

413
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 2: which was highly effective. Once he was able to finally

414
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 2: do that. Going through the court battles, what you'll see

415
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 2: is that, yeah, it is a federal issue, right, Okay, Well,

416
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 2: then your local government in New York City and whatever, Portland,

417
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 2: if we're talking about orient what they have to say

418
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:55,479
Speaker 2: really doesn't matter because you're not allowed. Crazy thing. It's

419
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,680
Speaker 2: called the supremacy Clause in the Constitution. You don't actually

420
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 2: have the ability by a state or local government to

421
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 2: usurp federal authority where federal authority exists. And so you

422
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 2: had it. You're a way on sanctuary policy up to now.

423
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 2: The problem is you can do all the sanctuary stuff

424
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 2: you want, and if you have people that are dumb enough,

425
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 2: like a lot of the voters that put these people

426
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 2: in power in these sanctuary places, if they're dumb enough

427
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 2: to screw themselves, that's one thing. But it doesn't just

428
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: screw them, does it. It gets you and your family too,

429
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 2: Because how many of these sanctuary governments brought people in,

430
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 2: housed them, gave them goodies, and then they ended up

431
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 2: going to other places that aren't necessarily sanctuary states or

432
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 2: sanctuary cities and causing horrific crimes. So what happens in

433
00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 2: these sanctuary places doesn't stay in the sanctuary places. Number eleven.

434
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,840
Speaker 2: Rebuild our cities, including Washington, DC. Make them safe, clean,

435
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 2: and beautiful again. That'll take some doing. Number twelve. Strengthen

436
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 2: and modernize our military, making it without question the strongest

437
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 2: and most powerful in the world. Number thirteen. Keep the

438
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 2: US dollar as the world's reserve currency. It's a whole

439
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 2: other one. As China continues to angle to knock us off,

440
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 2: and as our thirty six trillion dollars in dead gives

441
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 2: more and more governments around the world and opportunity to

442
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 2: take a look and go, you know what, maybe the

443
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 2: US is the one it used to be. Number fourteen.

444
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 2: Fight for and protects social security and Medicare with no cuts,

445
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 2: including no changes to the retirement age. Well, to do that,

446
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 2: we're gonna have to get a lot more responsible with

447
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 2: other governments spending, aren't we. So that's all the more

448
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,120
Speaker 2: reason why it's important. You'll have people kicking and screaming

449
00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 2: for these government agencies and nobody including members of Congress,

450
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 2: can even name. Oh my gosh, we can't do without

451
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 2: the Department of Tranning training in South America for example,

452
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 2: Whatever are we going to do well? How about I

453
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 2: don't know, say social Security and medicare not have them

454
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 2: become insolvent. Actually keep the promises that were made to people.

455
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 2: Number fifteen. Cancel the electric vehicle mandate and cut costly

456
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:17,600
Speaker 2: and burden some regulations, just the one interesting one with

457
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 2: Elon in particular in the mix there. Number sixteen cut

458
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 2: federal funding for any school pushing critical race theory, radical

459
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 2: gender ideology, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content

460
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: on our children. Amen education the single biggest issue for

461
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 2: generations now it's all started in the classroom. Apartment of

462
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 2: Education being in the cross ears absolutely needs to happen.

463
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 2: Number seventeen Keep men out of women's sports. How about

464
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 2: that one? Right shouldn't be difficult, Yet here we are

465
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 2: in this moment in time to binding administration, these leftist governments.

466
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 2: Keep men out of women's sports. Number eighteen to port

467
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: pro hamas radicals and make our college campuses safe and

468
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 2: patriotic again, although I do think to do so, you

469
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 2: have to get rid of some of the members of

470
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 2: the squad. Number nineteen secure our elections, including same day voting,

474
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,719
Speaker 2: the phones. We've got Art, who has patiently been waiting

475
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,000
Speaker 2: in Georgia. Art, welcome to the show.

476
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 6: That good afternoon. I want to talk to you about

477
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 6: this death penalty thing. I argue with people that the

478
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 6: death penalty actually is biblical, and if we go to

479
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 6: Genesis ninety six, we have evidence of this where God said,

480
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:58,960
Speaker 6: who's so sheddeth man's blood? By man? Shall his blood

481
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,719
Speaker 6: be shed? The image of God made him man. This

482
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 6: was one of the very first commandments that God ever

483
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 6: gave to man, after he said don't eat of the

484
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 6: Tree of life and of knowledge. This was one of

485
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 6: the first laws that he passed down, saying clearly that

486
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 6: if you kill a man, you should be put to

487
00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 6: death by the hands of men.

488
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 2: And Art, I appreciate the uh. I appreciate the calling

489
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 2: the perspective as well, and this gets back to something

490
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: I brought up in the first hour. So we're talking

491
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 2: about I was just talking about the inconsistencies with Joe Biden,

492
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 2: about how even with the communation of the thirty seven

493
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 2: of forty death row inmates earlier this week, even then

494
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 2: there was inconsistency, right, you know, he could try to

495
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 2: make the case I'm Catholic, the Catholic Church as opposed

496
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 2: to the death penalty, but he didn't. Right, if he

497
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,680
Speaker 2: had done all forty, he at least could have declared

498
00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: some kind of intellectual and moral consistency. But he didn't

499
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 2: even do that. And I hear what you're saying, are

500
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 2: absolutely I mean you are absolutely entitled to your belief

501
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 2: on that and your perspective on the death penalty. Again,

502
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 2: the Catholic Church has changed its stands on the death

503
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,239
Speaker 2: penalty every time, and it's around proximately two thousand and

504
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 2: four that it formally came out against it. So anyway,

505
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 2: be right back. I'm Brian mudd In for claim Buck.

506
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 2: You ain't imagining it. The world has gone insane.

507
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,600
Speaker 4: Reclaim your sanity with Clay and find them on the

508
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 4: free iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts.

509
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 7: Trump announcing that he is appointing Kevin Marino Caberra as

510
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 7: his ambassador to the Republic of Panama. And this is

511
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 7: important because he is doubling down on retaking the Panama Canal.

512
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 7: Trump writing Merry Christmas to all, including the soldiers, the

513
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 7: wonderful soldiers of China who are lovingly but illegally operating.

514
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 2: The Panama Canal. And that is Fox's Asha Hastni And

515
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 2: how can you do that? How can you threaten pandam

516
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 2: all with the canal? Well, we did something early done

517
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 2: the first time around, we made a bad deal. How

518
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 2: about we make better deals? And remember how you know

519
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 2: the first Trump administration, Oh my gosh, you know, if

520
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 2: you do all these tariffs, the economy is going to

521
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 2: crash and you're going to be paying, you know, five

522
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 2: hundred percent more for a refrigerator. It just nothing's going

523
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 2: to be affordable. And the Trump tax policy, everybody's going

524
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 2: to be paying more. It's going to hurt the economy,

525
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: and everybody but the richest ended up paying lesson taxes.

526
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 2: The economy was great.

527
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 3: Yeah.

528
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 2: See, when you rethink things, when you do things differently,

529
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 2: it's amazing how the results can follow. On the note

530
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: talking about dose, talking about doing things differently, talking about

531
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 2: Trump's twenty point agenda, and Jay and Louisiana wanted to

532
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 2: weigh in.

533
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 3: Jay real quick, Heay, thanks for kicking the call. First

534
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 3: of all, I didn't hear all of the twenty point

535
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 3: of Jennet, but I do agree with most of what

536
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 3: I heard. Secondly, I have heard you staying over the

537
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 3: last hour, hour and a half how it would be

538
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 3: awesome if somehow we could cut eighty percent of the

539
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 3: federal budget, as bloated and wasteful as the federal budget is.

540
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 3: I have to disagree on that one point. I think

541
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 3: if you cut eighty percent about the largest budget in

542
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,640
Speaker 3: the history of the world, we would crash the world economy. Now, Jay,

543
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 3: I do.

544
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Now, I appreciate that point. A couple of things.

545
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 2: The eighty percent was what Elon Musk cut from Twitter.

546
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 2: I was just kind of throwing that out there as

547
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 2: a Hey, you know, you think we'd be better if

548
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 2: we had eighty percent, let's thrill government. But I'll tell you what,

549
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: there is good answer to that. I'll have it for you.

550
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 2: On the other side. Brian Mudd in for Clay and

551
