We spend four times 53 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 8: more than European countries per capita on healthcare, and we 54 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 8: are living seven years less. That point was made again 55 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 8: and again and again, and you have right now the 56 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 8: Democrats looking at that and saying, all we need to 57 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 8: do is give more money to insurance companies. All we 58 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 8: need to do is put more money into this broken system. 59 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 7: People are not going to be able to walk throw 60 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 7: there their insurance. I don't think even with subsidies, they're 61 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 7: going to be able to afford the premiums that are 62 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 7: hyping up one hundred, two hundred and three hundred percent 63 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 7: supposed to fix on people. 64 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 9: No, well, not without the universal I mean that's affordable care. 65 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 10: But unfortunately Democrats blew the opportunity the American people gave them. 66 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 10: We took their mandate and put all of our focus 67 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 10: on the wrong problem, health care reform. 68 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 11: So when we say that Democrats are communists, don't we 69 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 11: don't just mean that while they believe in the state 70 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 11: control of property, we mean, they've adopted a method of 71 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 11: thinking in which any use of force is justified for 72 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 11: their end state of power and control. They don't believe 73 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 11: in systems, they don't believe in rules, they don't believe 74 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 11: in laws. They believe in whatever keeps them empower while. 75 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 12: They matter and they're important. 76 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: I think these debates should happen. 77 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 12: They should happen in podcasts, and they should happen in 78 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 12: the media. They should happen on the op ed pages. 79 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 12: It's totally reasonable for the people who make up this 80 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 12: coalition to argue about what our foreign policy should be, 81 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 12: what our specific tax policy should be, what our housing 82 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 12: policy should be. I mean, I had a meeting just 83 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 12: yesterday that was focused in the West Wing about how 84 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 12: do we get housing more affordable for young Americans because 85 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 12: of all the things that got completely out of control 86 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 12: under the Biden administration. You had homes that doubled or 87 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 12: tripled in priced depending on the geography in four years 88 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 12: under the Biden administration. 89 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 1: We've got to. 90 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 12: Solve that problem for our young people so they can 91 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 12: afford to buy homes, start families, and actually build their 92 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 12: own American dream. 93 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: So I think my attitude is let these debates play out. 94 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: But don't let the debates. 95 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 12: That we're having internally blind us to the fact that 96 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 12: we're up against a radical leftist movement that murdered my 97 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 12: friend a couple of months ago, and that would throw 98 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 12: many people in the Trump administration in prison, not for 99 00:04:52,560 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 12: doing anything illegal, but for not following the far left agenda. 100 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 13: Every day is a battle for your mind, raging information 101 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 13: coming from every angle, but the will to the sieve, 102 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 13: fear not. You found the place for truth, the voice 103 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 13: and a generation that still has the will to believe 104 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,280 Speaker 13: in the greatest country in the history of the world. 105 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: This is the Charlie Kirk Show.

I think people would like it. 116 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 15: Yes, it gets out a lot of what made people 117 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 15: love Charlie so much, which was he was always focused 118 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 15: on the future, on building the coalition, on finding the 119 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 15: common ground, on beating the real bad guys, which is 120 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 15: the insane communist, anti civilization left that wants to destroy. 121 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 14: Us all the Red Green Alliance, which is what he 122 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 14: was focused on at the end of his life, and 123 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 14: we will remain focused on because it remains the key threat, 124 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 14: I believe to the future of our civilization. There's many threats, 125 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 14: but that is the key one. And of course the 126 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 14: prediction that we are referring to is the re reunion, 127 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 14: the reuniting of Elon Musk and President Donald Trump, which 128 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 14: took place last night officially at a black tied dinner 129 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 14: at the White House that was honoring Mohammed ben Salmon. 130 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: I guess they're not. Yeah, so are we have a 131 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: state visit dinner? Yeah. 132 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 15: We had a state visit of the Saudi Crown prince 133 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 15: to their first state visit and I think seven years, 134 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 15: announcing more investments of Saudi oil money into the United States, 135 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 15: some strategic partnerships there. This is of course part of 136 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,559 Speaker 15: his broader push to also bring peace to the Middle East. 137 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 15: But Elon Musk was there because Elon Musk is apparently 138 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 15: to be investing his own AI initiatives in data centers 139 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 15: in Saudi Arabia. 140 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: Don't need to get into all of that. 141 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 15: The point is it was the first time Musk was 142 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 15: at the White House since he left back in day. 143 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 14: So well in June twenty twenty five is where the 144 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 14: feud really took off. And of course Elon invested about 145 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 14: three hundred million dollars into the election of President Trump 146 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 14: in twenty twenty four he headed up the DOGE Office 147 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 14: of Government Efficiency in the White House. 148 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: Then they had this bitter public feud. 149 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 15: It waitiful bill. He said it was too much spending. 150 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 15: He said it was. He basically said it was a dastard. 151 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 15: He said Trump would be in the Epstein files. He 152 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 15: was saying lots of pretty low blows and stuff. He 153 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 15: ended up deleting that one. Yes, and he admitted it 154 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 15: was probably a bit too fars and so that was 155 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 15: all blowing up. I remember the day it happened, we 156 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 15: went live on Thought Crime. I think it was the 157 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 15: normal night for it, but if it wasn't, we may 158 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 15: have gone live just because it was so dramatic. And 159 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 15: that was June fifth, and during that show, Charlie made 160 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 15: this prediction. 161 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 1: Let's play clip two forty one. Donald Trump's in a feud. 162 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 9: Men fight, big news, big deal, Get over it, focus 163 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 9: on the policies, focus on the victories, and they will continue. 164 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: It's all gonna be okay again. 165 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 16: I will say, right here, you can mark it down 166 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 16: by Christmas. Maybe before that there will be like a 167 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 16: surprise Elon Musk comes for dinner. It comes for dessert 168 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 16: at mar A Lago. You know leaked New York Times 169 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 16: Elon Musk spotted at mar A Lago. 170 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if you. 171 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 15: Nail that one, I I guess I'll just be really impressed. 172 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 17: I could be wrong. 173 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 16: I'm just saying, by Christmas, don't be shocked. 174 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,239 Speaker 1: Well, here we are. It's not even Thanksgiving. 175 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 14: My favorite part of that is you chiming in. By 176 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 14: the way, I barely recognized you. I've got a pretty 177 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 14: clean clean but. 178 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 15: I love that you have to chime and be like, 179 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 15: if you nail that one, okay, I'll be really impressed. 180 00:08:56,360 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 15: And I'm really impressed. I am really impressed. And another 181 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 15: part of it that I think a lot of people 182 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 15: have already realized, and you know, we mentioned leaked to 183 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 15: New York Times. So this is the article the New 184 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 15: York Times two days ago, and they say, quote September 185 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 15: appeared to be a turning point in mister Muck's Musk's 186 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 15: relationship with mister Trump. Musk said that he had been 187 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 15: invited to a high profile dinner with tech executives hosted 188 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 15: by Trump. 189 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: He sent one of his aides in his place. 190 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 15: But then mister Musk approached mister Trump at the memorial 191 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 15: service for Charlie Kirk. They had an animated conversation for 192 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 15: several minutes. 193 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're seeing it there. 194 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:36,199 Speaker 15: That conversation they had that was captured on television. Mister Musk, 195 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 15: who friends say was very emotionally affected by mister Kirk's depth, 196 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 15: posted a picture online of the exchange. That image of 197 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:45,199 Speaker 15: that exchange. 198 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: I believe it got I think, he said, for Charlie. 199 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 15: And I think it got seventy six million views there 200 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 15: for Charlie. 201 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: Yep, seventy six million. So I just like that picture. 202 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 14: I remember I was back at the memorial and I 203 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 14: somebody showed me a picture of them, and I posted 204 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 14: and I said, I hope that they're looking at each other, 205 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 14: saying for Charlie and about an hour later, Musk tweeted 206 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 14: that for Charlie and I I can't prove it, but 207 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 14: I like to think that Elon saw that tweet and thought, 208 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 14: you know what, let's do it. Yeah, And it makes 209 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 14: my heart happy because I knew, I know, and you 210 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 14: know how much this meant to Charlie. 211 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 15: Yes, And it's not that they're aligned on everything, it's 212 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 15: that it's what Charlie would care about. 213 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: It's being aligned on the core things. He said. 214 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 15: There was another bid he did in July when they 215 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 15: were still fighting, and he said, I think they're going 216 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 15: to realize that they maybe disagree on spending, they may 217 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 15: disagree on particulars of immigration policy. And this was you know, 218 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 15: Musk was talking about starting his own party, running third party, 219 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 15: and he said, I think Musk will realize that if 220 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 15: I just allow Zoron Mamdani or these other radical left 221 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 15: wing luntics to come back into power, I'm going to 222 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 15: not get any of the changes I want on spending, 223 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 15: and I'm still going to get all of their you know, 224 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 15: radically anti industry, anti free market, anti American, anti white 225 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 15: people values. 226 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 1: They're all going to. 227 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 15: Come flooding back and we'll destroy this country because of 228 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 15: some personal beef that we have, and he really he 229 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 15: nailed that one. 230 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: That we have to move on from those things. 231 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 15: We have to be able to build our alliances, maintain 232 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 15: those alliances even when it's difficult. I want to play 233 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 15: another Charlie clip here. Let's do I think we have. 234 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 15: Let's do clip two fifty four. 235 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,079 Speaker 16: Now, it might seem as if this is irreconcilable between 236 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:39,559 Speaker 16: President Trump and Elon Musk. 237 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: How could they ever come. 238 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 16: Back together after all this back and forth. It's just 239 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 16: as nasty as you could imagine, and it seems as 240 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 16: if that it's only going to increase. But President Trump 241 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 16: has in front of us a rather dramatic and telling 242 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 16: track record of being able to reconcile and work with 243 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 16: people that were otherwise considered to be sworn enemies of MAGA. 244 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: He nailed it. He nailed it. 245 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 15: We got a great email here from Kevin. He says, 246 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 15: this fulfilled prediction by Charlie is precisely the reason I 247 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 15: said for years that Charlie was the true heir to 248 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 15: the wisdom of Rush Limbaugh, his favorite radio host. Yes 249 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 15: he was, and prayers as you continue to fight for 250 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 15: what Charlie was fighting for Thank you, Thank you, Kevin 251 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 15: and anyone else who has thoughts email us. 252 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 14: We're going to try and get our email reading game 253 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 14: back on track. Yesterday we didn't get to as many 254 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 14: as we wanted to, so today please send emails Freedom 255 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 14: at Charliekirk dot com. You know this all reminds me, 256 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 14: by the way, I have not stopped thinking about Helen 257 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 14: Andrews our interview. If you haven't seen it, please check 258 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 14: it out on the podcast wherever you get your podcasts, Apple, Spotify, wherever. 259 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 14: It was a really important conversation. I loved that it 260 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 14: was coming from a woman, because one of the things 261 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 14: it neededn't come from a woman, we'd have been in trouble. But, 262 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 14: so she writes in this article, it was the great 263 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 14: feminization and this is a particular skill set of men. 264 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: Now we love you women. You guys are truly important. 265 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 14: We have a bunch of ladies that work on this 266 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 14: team and they are amazing. But this is one of 267 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 14: the pieces she wrote in this's and she's talked about 268 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 14: how men over time have developed customs and approaches to war, 269 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 14: and this reminds me of Elon and Trump and Charlie 270 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 14: understood this. She says, the point of war is to 271 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 14: settle disputes between two tribes, but it only works if 272 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 14: peace is restored after the dispute is settled. Men therefore 273 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 14: developed methods for reconciling with opponents and learning to live 274 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 14: in peace with people they. 275 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: Were fighting yesterday. 276 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 14: Females, even in primate species, are slower to reconcile than males. 277 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 14: This is a guy thing, and Charlie, he genuinely understood. 278 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 15: I think it's because he went through so many of these, 279 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 15: so many we'd see some of those that were behind 280 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 15: the scenes, just you'd have the grind, the fighting, you'd 281 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 15: have these attacks, and to be a fake out. Now, 282 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 15: actually we don't want this fight. And well he saw 283 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 15: that and he was you know, he told the audience 284 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 15: about it. 285 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 14: Yeah, and you could tell it was two alphas, like, 286 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 14: you know, raging against one another. 287 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,680 Speaker 1: You know, Trump's threatening to hold down each other again. 288 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: But they might fight again, they might. 289 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 14: This is this doesn't have to be forever. But listen, 290 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 14: here's the thing. What did Elon said? We we must 291 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 14: hang together because if not, we will surely hang along separately. 292 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 14: And that is that is absolutely true. We need each other, 293 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 14: The movement needs each other. I think there's a purging. 294 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 14: I'm gonna make my own prediction here. There's a lot 295 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 14: of talking about the infighting on the right, especially in 296 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 14: the wake of Charlie's death. We will come back together. 297 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 14: There was a purging, there was a flexing. There is 298 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 14: a consternation happening, and that is sometimes really healthy. 299 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 1: We will come back together. 300 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 14: You watch you watch all right, connection, open dialogue. These 301 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 14: are things that build communities. Charlie Kirk and TikTok's share 302 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 14: in that knowledge. That's why TikTok has built a space 303 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 14: where that kind of listening actually happens. People don't just post, 304 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,600 Speaker 14: they respond. They build on each other's ideas. You see 305 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 14: a teacher simplifying a tough lesson so it finally clicks 306 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 14: for students, or gardener sharing a trick that save their crop. 307 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: But what matters most isn't the video. It's what comes next. 308 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 14: Someone asking a question, someone else answering a story with 309 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 14: a story of their own, and suddenly people who've never 310 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 14: met become a community built on mutual understanding and curiosity, 311 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 14: all those wonderful things. Walls come down. This is what 312 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 14: listening does. It reminds us all that we're not as 313 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 14: different as we may think. And that's what makes TikTok 314 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 14: so powerful. It's a place where every post can turn 315 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 14: into a conversation, and every conversation can make a huge difference. 316 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 14: So join the conversation with us.

Most institutions will not touch them. But 328 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: why Reefi does. 329 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 14: They will help you with distressed or defaulted private student 330 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 14: loans that others want nothing to do with. Why Refi 331 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 14: is not a debt settlement company and they work with 332 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 14: each borrower individually, and this is the key, tailoring loan 333 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 14: to each borrower specific situation. You will not be calling 334 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 14: a faceless call center. Why reef I can reduce your 335 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 14: monthly payment and guarantees interest rates under six percent, ensuring 336 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 14: affordability and financial relief.

I think some 379 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,680 Speaker 15: of this is just it's the stuff that's been continuing 380 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:50,120 Speaker 15: for several years, and it's not going to be fixed overnight. 381 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 15: And there are people frustrated with the courts have blocked 382 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 15: a lot of the most ambitious things Trump wants to do. People, 383 00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 15: a lot of people want there to be more deportations. 384 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 15: There's a lot of everyone. People can pick things to 385 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 15: be aggrieved about. And one thing that happens when there's 386 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,439 Speaker 15: a bad vibe, as you say, is people decide to 387 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 15: fixate on whatever they want to be aggrieved about rather 388 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 15: than positives, and there are positives. I think it's always 389 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 15: worth re emphasizing to people. This is all happening in 390 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 15: an environment where we have shut down people crossing the 391 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:26,199 Speaker 15: US Mexico border. We had this open wound that a 392 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 15: million plus people were pouring over, two million maybe pouring 393 00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 15: over every single year, no limit, no intention to ever 394 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 15: stop it, and we stopped it cold practically overnight. 395 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 1: There used to be that dairy and gap. 396 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 15: We'd have people go there and do documentary episodes of 397 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 15: the tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people pouring 398 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 15: over into Panama from China, Africa, Southeast Asia, like all 399 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 15: these places, and it's just gone. No one's doing it anymore. 400 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 15: Mm hmm, yeah, no, And this is I totally agree. 401 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 15: And we're also rooting out a lot of visa issues. 402 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 15: We put one hundred thousand dollars basically fee on h 403 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 15: one b's so we are making progress. 404 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: Everybody needs to just remember that. 405 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 14: But here's the reason why we want to talk about 406 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 14: Elon Musk is because sometimes there's these critical initiating events 407 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 14: that happen and you can look back on them later 408 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 14: and you can say that was the moment that we 409 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 14: started turning the corner and getting back on track. And 410 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 14: I don't think it's a coincidence that this morning Jada 411 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 14: Vance is also talking about some of the same things. 412 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 14: Keeping the main thing the main thing and bringing it 413 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 14: back to what happened to Charlie is a really important 414 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 14: clip to eighty seven. 415 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 12: I think my attitude is let these debates play out, 416 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 12: but don't let the debates that you're that we're having 417 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 12: internally blind us to the fact that we are up 418 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 12: against a radical leftist movement that murdered my friend a 419 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 12: couple of months ago, and that would throw many people 420 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 12: in the Trump administration in prison, not for doing anything illegal, 421 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 12: but for not following the far left agenda and then. 422 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 14: As if we were already not spoiled for good news. 423 00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 14: I just took this as a personal sign, Blake, because 424 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 14: sometimes I call you contrarion Blake. 425 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,919 Speaker 1: It's true, that's why we love you. 426 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 14: But then you it just depends on the day.

But sometimes it's like, come on, Blake, 428 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 14: throw up image to eighty five. So Blake goes, hey, 429 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 14: did you see that, Homeland Security. That's a really good one. 430 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 14: It's a really really good one. And I was like, wait, 431 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 14: so it's not cringe, Blake. He's like, yeah, it wasn't crite. 432 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: Sometimes sometimes I go a little too far, but this 433 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: is a perfect one. This is perfect. 434 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 14: So this is a tweet that went out from Homeland Security. 435 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 14: I happen to like their Twitter feed.

We'll probably do a little 516 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 14: news tell you about what kind of some of the 517 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 14: stuff we're working on in this first segment. Now and 518 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 14: segment two, we're gonna take your questions. So first I 519 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 14: want to tell you about Hillsdale College, history, economics, great 520 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 14: works of literature. Did you study these things in school? 521 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 14: Probably not, but even if you did, it's probably time 522 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:31,200 Speaker 14: for an enjoyable refresher. Let the good folks at Hillsdale 523 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 14: College help you with that. They have forty free over 524 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 14: forty free online courses, including their newest course ont Talitarian Novels. 525 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 14: It's a free eight lecture course taught by doctor Larry 526 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 14: On who's the president of the school. He goes in 527 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 14: depth on nineteen eighty four Brave New World Darkness and 528 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 14: Newton That Hideous Strength. These are novels that were written 529 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 14: in the thirties and forties, but they're probably more relevant 530 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,959 Speaker 14: today than they've ever been because they explain how tyrannical 531 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 14: government can impact human nature in our daily lives. So 532 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 14: more importantly, they can show us that faith, family, and 533 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 14: friends are worth fighting for, and that's really true. 534 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 1: These these novels go really deep in this. So maybe you. 535 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 14: Read these books in school, maybe you've heard others talk 536 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 14: about them and they seem a little intimidating. They don't 537 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 14: have to be intimidating. Let Hillsdale College get the most 538 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 14: out of them for you.

All right, Tyler, 542 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 14: we're talking about redistricting. This is a fight that's going 543 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 14: on in the country right now, and a lot of 544 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 14: people are unaware of it. I mean, we hear about 545 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 14: Prop fifty in California and the Texas redistrict and fight 546 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,400 Speaker 14: made a lot of news, but there are other states 547 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:48,959 Speaker 14: that are really important. 548 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: Give us the update. Where do we stand right now? 549 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 19: Yeah, Andrew, it's been actually crazy in the background right 550 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 19: now because there's a lot of states that are wholly 551 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 19: Republican dominant that are not being helpful whatsoever in the 552 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 19: fight against Gavin Newsom and what they've done in California. 553 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 19: So as a recap for everyone Gavin Newsom, we know 554 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 19: they just passed the prop for redistricting. They're going to 555 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 19: take away essentially five plus Republican seats off the table 556 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 19: pretty clearly. And the only way that you can combat 557 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 19: that is with our big Republican states and then a 558 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 19: bunch of these other smaller Republican states that can kind 559 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 19: of cobble together to help offset this really manipulative hijacking 560 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 19: of the electoral system that Gavin Newsom has entered into. 561 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 19: And this is all important because remember Gavin is doing 562 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 19: this in part because this is helpful to him and 563 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 19: looking like the savior for the Democrat Party as he 564 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 19: tries to run for president in twenty twenty eight. So 565 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 19: so everything's interconnected, it's all it's all possible right now, Indiana, 566 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 19: who has Republican state senators and districts that Trump won 567 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 19: by twenty to thirty points that are are pushing back 568 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 19: on redistricting to gain net two seats. So Indiana, you know, 569 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 19: one of the historically most republican states in the country, 570 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 19: outside of the sad Obama blip that happened in two 571 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 19: thousand and eight, but that they swear that was not normal, 572 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 19: it really has been one of the most republican states 573 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 19: that we have in the nation. Really has also a 574 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 19: very republican metropolitan areas, and there is real justification for 575 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 19: a solid through and through red state plan map if 576 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 19: you map it out very fairly, very squarely for that. 577 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 19: But because of the way the process that redistricting works 578 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 19: on and everybody that's a listening needs to become very 579 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 19: familiar with this terminology majority minority districts. So what the 580 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 19: Democrats have been doing now for many decades is they've 581 00:29:55,640 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 19: been pushing this concept through lawfare of remapping every state 582 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 19: around majority minority districts, meaning that they have to consequently 583 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 19: jerrymander districts to include populations that have their large populations 584 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 19: in your state of minority community. 585 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 1: Hispanic This is the Voting Rights Act. 586 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 19: This is the Voting Rights Act argument that's being discussed. 587 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 19: We won't probably get into the details of it now, 588 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 19: but we will probably start to tear this apart over 589 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 19: the next year. But essentially the big ones in America 590 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:32,280 Speaker 19: obviously are the Hispanic communities, Black communities, and Native American 591 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 19: communities in certain areas. Now Native Americans haven't made up 592 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 19: too many, so you haven't seen too many of that. 593 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 19: But here in Arizona you have an argument. 594 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 1: For one of the Oklahoma level. 595 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 19: You see the state level, that's right, that's right, state level, 596 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 19: it happens a lot more frequently. But the black community 597 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 19: argument Hispanic community. Now, as Democrats are starting to lose Hispanics, 598 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 19: they become much less interested in Hispanic communities. And this 599 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 19: is where it's it's becoming. Well, a lot of Hispanics 600 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 19: are actually saying like, yeah, we don't need to do this, 601 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 19: we don't need to just encompass said they use this 602 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 19: to cheat to essentially just Jerrymander more Democrat voters that 603 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 19: just happened to be from those minorities. 604 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: So where is that process at now? 605 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 14: Because Texas nacts a new map that was basically going 606 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 14: to wipe out all the games they're going to get 607 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:22,720 Speaker 14: in California, but then a. 608 00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: Judge blocks them. 609 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 14: Yes, right, and so that is now maybe Blake, I 610 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 14: don't know either one of you can answer this. 611 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: What is the next step in that process? So this 612 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: just broke this week that a federal can. 613 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 19: We throwing the Florida piece real quick. So while this 614 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 19: is all going on, Florida stepped in and there like 615 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 19: no worries, guys, we're going to actually add another five 616 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 19: Republican seats. So they're in the process of this. 617 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 15: It's it's really risky, like if you're adding to once 618 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 15: you The thing about Jerry Mannering that a lot of 619 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 15: people don't get is if you stretch it too hard, 620 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 15: you're basically making it. So let's say, for example, let's 621 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 15: say in Texas, you made it so every single district 622 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 15: exactly matched the state's vote in the last presidential election 623 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 15: just hypothetically, Well, okay, that means, yeah, you want, we 624 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 15: won Texas pretty handily, but there are elections where you 625 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 15: only win Texas by five points or six, and you 626 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 15: can imagine the situation where you would just lose Texas, 627 00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 15: Like it's it's plausible if you get in a really 628 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 15: bad white pout, you could lose Texas. 629 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: Youah, like a two thousand and eight Obama, Yeah, two 630 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: thousand and eight Obama. 631 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 15: And then like you do really bad in the House 632 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 15: or something, and suddenly you'd get to that point where 633 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 15: what happens is you win more seats until suddenly you 634 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 15: start losing them, and then you can lose a lot. 635 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 6: Yeah. 636 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: See, you always got more seats too. 637 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 19: Because seat because they're taking for the viewers at home, 638 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 19: the listeners at home, is that you're taking districts that 639 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 19: are ten to fifteen points on average plus for Trump. 640 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 19: You're a plus Republican. You look at two different ways, 641 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 19: how many points did Trump win by the last presidential 642 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 19: or whoever's the last presidential candidate? And then how many 643 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 19: more Republican voters do you have the Democrat voters. The 644 00:32:58,320 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 19: real thing that's in the airs and a lot of 645 00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 19: the states, part Texas included, is you have a lot 646 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 19: more independence now than you ever did before. And actually 647 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 19: I own a phone call back to a North Carolinian. 648 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 19: There's a North Carolina is a good example of this. 649 00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 19: Historically republican state tons of independent voters. So if you 650 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 19: start messing with the districts too much, like Blake saying, 651 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 19: you might end up in a situation where you have 652 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 19: a new community of a lot younger people who aren't 653 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 19: registering Republican. They're more independent that are harder to target, 654 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 19: and then they're harder to turn out. 655 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 15: Yeah, and Florida is a good example. Actually, if you 656 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 15: Florida right now feels very red to us. 657 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: It's moved read. 658 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 15: Over time plus one million, twenty twelve. It voted Democrat 659 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 15: in a presidential election. Yeah, the first time Ron de 660 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 15: Santis ran, he beat Andrew Gillham by thirty six thousand. 661 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 15: Extremely think about how much history ended up changing on 662 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 15: those thirty thousand whatever votes. 663 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 19: This is why, this is why ballet chacy matters. That's 664 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 19: why chacing matters for because you win by a little bit, 665 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 19: you can swing a state for decades. 666 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 14: So did he win on his second election? It was 667 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 14: like almost two million votes? 668 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 15: A well, yeah, yeah, he wanted massive landslide and yeah, 669 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:11,840 Speaker 15: huge landslide. 670 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,399 Speaker 1: Yeah. And so you're asking what's next in this Texas case. 671 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 15: So yeah, so this panel said Texas's is illegal racial 672 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 15: gerrymanderin whatever. Now it's a sort of special one usually 673 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 15: when you have these court cases, uh, in the federal level, 674 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 15: it would go district Circuit Supreme. With these specific election 675 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 15: law related cases, they have an accelerated process, so the 676 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 15: appeal is directly to the Supreme Court. I've talked to 677 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 15: some people familiar with the Supreme Court who've been clerks 678 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 15: and such. They think the Supreme Court would probably side 679 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 15: with us. But it's a matter of speed because you're filing. 680 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 15: Deadlines in Texas, for example, are coming up here in 681 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 15: just a couple of weeks, so you would need the 682 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 15: Supreme Court to weigh in very quickly, or they might 683 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 15: just be stuck with their old house map for matters 684 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 15: of practicality, which that's a lot of what this is about. 685 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 15: This Texas house map was because they specifically wanted it 686 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,359 Speaker 15: for this midterm cycle, and if it only kicks in 687 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 15: in twenty twenty eight, well then you know you're only 688 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 15: two years away from a census. 689 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: Anyway. Yeah, throw up this image. By the way, this 690 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: is a the two ninety one. 691 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 14: This is the States considering congressional redistrict And you can 692 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 14: look on my computer here if you want, Tyler. But 693 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 14: so we've got California. They passed prop fifty. How many 694 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 14: do you approximately how many seats are. 695 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 19: They going to get? Right now? 696 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 14: The estimations five, so five they're gonna get five. How 697 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 14: many would Texas get if we get this in time 698 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 14: for the midterms? 699 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: The plan was five five and Florida five, is arguing, 700 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: so we would be. 701 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 14: If we get Texas corrected, we're going to be net five. 702 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 19: Versus Texas and Florida together would be plus ten. Indiana's 703 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 19: plus two Ohio as well. Right, it's not on this map, 704 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 19: so Ohio is probably not not going to change. 705 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,959 Speaker 1: But I've heard they can get two more seats. 706 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 19: Yeah, there's an argument for it that they can. Going 707 00:36:05,360 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 19: back to Blake's point, the question is should. 708 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 14: They, especially with the veak running even or maybe slightly behind. 709 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,920 Speaker 19: It, because they're not in a safe of a spot. 710 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, what's what's the story? What's the story with Missouri? 711 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 1: Are past new maps? 712 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 19: Yeah, I don't have the the toll update. I'll get 713 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 19: all touch up base with our Missouri people. We can 714 00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,800 Speaker 19: do a follow up this next week and on Missouri. 715 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,959 Speaker 15: And then I saw that at a Maryland house map there. 716 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 15: I know that that's a Democrat state. Of course, I 717 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 15: think they usually have one Republican seats. It would probably 718 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 15: be an attempt to zero that one. Yeah, it's one. 719 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:37,919 Speaker 1: Yeah. 720 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 14: So then then there's Nebraska and Kansas. So Kansas could 721 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 14: redraw their maps, Nebraska could get the winner take all 722 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 14: kind of energy and maybe which. 723 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:47,920 Speaker 19: We have no faith in. 724 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 1: Well, there's still one shot. 725 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 15: Is there's still uh three Republicans right now, right, I 726 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 15: don't think we'd get new seats. 727 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 1: It would just secured about Don Bacon. 728 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 19: Yeah, it's basically assumed it is going rertter that we 729 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 19: well that well, it's not a red seat, so it's 730 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 19: a plus like three or four DEM seat that Don 731 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 19: Bacon just has won because he's a moderate. But Don 732 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 19: Bacon's retiring and so the fear is that they're going 733 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,919 Speaker 19: to lose if they don't redistrict y. Yeah, they're going 734 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 19: to lose that seat. 735 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 14: So so go zero in on Indiana. Now, Indiana there 736 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 14: was a push to because they had a chance to redistrict. 737 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 1: They failed one minute left. 738 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 19: Uh yeah, so right now the state Senate, I mean 739 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,440 Speaker 19: they still can't do it, but there's essentially holdouts of 740 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 19: about it depends on the day, but we have about 741 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,160 Speaker 19: five or six state senators that are holding out. The 742 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 19: White House came out really strong. The President came out 743 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 19: really strong, like, Hey, we're going to find people to 744 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 19: challenge these people. And there's good conservatives in Indiana across 745 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 19: the state. I mean, we're talking in each of these 746 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 19: districts you're going to we need the audience to start 747 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 19: to get to know these people because we need to 748 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 19: replace them. So we're talking. We're not talking districts for 749 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,360 Speaker 19: Trump won by five or six We're talking districts that 750 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 19: Trump won by thirty or forty points. 751 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:03,560 Speaker 1: Jeez. 752 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,879 Speaker 19: And so the President feels very strongly that we can 753 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,359 Speaker 19: find the right people. Turning point action will help them, 754 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 19: will help the President and identify some of these people 755 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 19: and get the word out, all. 756 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,200 Speaker 1: Right, So we need to know how to help and 757 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 1: what to do next. 758 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,839 Speaker 19: So well, Indiana can still fix this. They could still 759 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 19: get the redistricting done, avoid all of that conflict, and 760 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 19: just get it over with. 761 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 14: So if you are an Indiana legislator that stood in 762 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 14: the way of the redistricting fight, there's still time to 763 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 14: save your political future. This does not have to go 764 00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 14: this way. But we got to save we got to 765 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,239 Speaker 14: save the republic.

So think about that, Tyler. 812 00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 14: This is from Sunny said Steve Bannon was talking about 813 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 14: Georgia could pick up five That sounds very optimistic. But 814 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 14: we're gonna throw that to Tyler when we get back 815 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 14: with radio in. 816 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: About five seconds. Don't go anywhere. 817 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 14: All right, welcome back to the Charlie Kirk Show. We've 818 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 14: got Tyler Boyer here. We got a question from Sonny Tyler. 819 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 14: She says, several weeks ago, Steve Bannon was talking about 820 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 14: Georgia and how it can pick up five seeds. 821 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:36,760 Speaker 1: Is that true? 822 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 19: So this is part of the problem with majority minority districts. 823 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,959 Speaker 19: So again, Georgia's at the epicenter of that problem, which 824 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 19: is that you have the law fit that's been used 825 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:54,359 Speaker 19: in the electoral process to give majority minority in this 826 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 19: case and in Georgia black districts. So keep this in 827 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,919 Speaker 19: mind that with the law fair, so if the Trump 828 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 19: admissians is able to undo that, then the answer to 829 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 19: that questions, yes, you could actually gain back. 830 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 15: Well, ill I will add some caution because right now 831 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 15: Georgia is nine Republicans, five Democrats, fourteen total seats. So 832 00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 15: if you were to jerrymander every single Democrat out, you'd be, 833 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,720 Speaker 15: like I said, you'd basically be looking at the state average. 834 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 1: Well, the idea like lost Georgia in twenty twenty, Yeah, 835 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: the idea would, so you'd that'd be where you'd. 836 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:29,720 Speaker 15: Be very close to that risk point of they flip 837 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 15: all fourteen seats. 838 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 19: That's right. So even if you redistricted, you know, you 839 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 19: got rid of majority minority districts, which you could make 840 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 19: the opposite argument that the Democrats are jerrymandering some of 841 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 19: these districts that you shouldn't have five Democrat seats there, 842 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 19: it should be more like three year. 843 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:46,279 Speaker 1: Yah, you can get it to I think you could 844 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: get it to four. You get one or two would 845 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:49,399 Speaker 1: be great. 846 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:53,879 Speaker 19: Arizona is a similar situation where we have like a 847 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 19: pretty conservative state for the Republican side. If we get 848 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 19: eleven congressional seats here this next election cycle, you can 849 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 19: make the argument that Arizona's a nine to two seat, 850 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,320 Speaker 19: but it's the safer, more realistic. 851 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,959 Speaker 1: Like eight three eight three yeah. Yeah. 852 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,640 Speaker 14: Kristen says, Hi, guys, I'm in Indiana resident. I'm wondering 853 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 14: if there's anything I can do to help with the 854 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 14: redistricting push. 855 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:15,959 Speaker 1: Yeah. 856 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 19: Absolutely, We're actually have links that are going out. We 857 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,840 Speaker 19: had a link that was up for a churning point action. 858 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 19: It's tpaction dot com slash I believe. Hang on here, 859 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 19: I'll pull the link in just one second. 860 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 14: All right, Well, while you get that, James says, you 861 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 14: guys are forgetting Spanberger has already said she will redistrict 862 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,839 Speaker 14: Virginia to go to ten blue seats in one red seat. 863 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: Do we know what that's about? 864 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 15: So that is a proposal. I think they've even claimed 865 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 15: they can do it now. I believe if they don't 866 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,840 Speaker 15: one hundred percent regular courts, which they could, it is 867 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 15: difficult to redistrict in Virginia because I think they went 868 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 15: to a nonpartisan system by constitutional amendment, and they'd have 869 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 15: to vote twice, like two times in a row, and 870 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:58,759 Speaker 15: hold a referendum. They have to do a lot if 871 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 15: they were going to do it by this next election. 872 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,720 Speaker 15: But they're going to try. They are very inventive about 873 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 15: these things. 874 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 14: I do have a non redistricting question that I want 875 00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 14: to get to while you pull up those links, Tyler, 876 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:12,840 Speaker 14: this is from Kelly. It's a fair question because I 877 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 14: know there's confusion about it. So, Hi, guys listening to 878 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,280 Speaker 14: the show today about the reunion between Musk and Trump 879 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 14: and wondering why TPSA is not doing the same with 880 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:24,439 Speaker 14: Tim Poole. That is an interesting question, I understand because 881 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 14: Tim has said that he's not coming to Mfest. We 882 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 14: actually we're in the process of making sure that we 883 00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 14: could do it from a production standpoint. I was literally, 884 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,480 Speaker 14: we're about to give him like the green light, we 885 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 14: want to do this on the day that he posts 886 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:37,760 Speaker 14: a video said he wasn't coming. 887 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 1: So we're trying to work with him. 888 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 14: To get that fixed because we had every intention of 889 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 14: wanting to do that and moving forward. You know, he's 890 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 14: got a very busy schedule. I think he was hoping 891 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 14: for the answer sooner than we were able to give 892 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,399 Speaker 14: it to him. But we certainly want him to be there. 893 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 14: We've had a three year run with him at Amfest. 894 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 14: It's been very successful, So we want to do it, 895 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 14: and we're working on seeing if it was. 896 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 1: Not a calculated snub. 897 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 14: It was not a calculated snub. Well said, it was 898 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 14: not intended to be any type of snub. What happened 899 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 14: was as soon as Charlie was assassinated. I'm sure everybody 900 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:12,320 Speaker 14: can understand this. Tickets sold out at Amfest and everybody 901 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,360 Speaker 14: in the conservative movements that I want to speak at Amfest, 902 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 14: and so we got overbooked, even from a speaker standpoint, 903 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 14: very very rapidly. 904 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:21,320 Speaker 1: And so in order to do Tim's show, which. 905 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 14: Happens at a very specific time every day on a Friday, 906 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 14: we would have had to sort of we just had 907 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 14: to kind of figure out how we were going to 908 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 14: do it. 909 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 1: And actually we had a good plan. 910 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:32,360 Speaker 14: I think Tim would be down with the plan, so 911 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 14: hopefully we can get it done. 912 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 1: And we also I. 913 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 19: Had text to you it was like we got to 914 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 19: get Temple there and then. 915 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, like that morning and I said, I'm working on it. 916 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 19: Yeah. I mean, obviously we've had a lot going on. 917 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 19: And I want to say this too, is we've had 918 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 19: a lot going on with everybody. We have more people 919 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,520 Speaker 19: that were actually telling No. Two for America Fest, because 920 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 19: literally there's going to be like fifty thousand people there, 921 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 19: plus everybody wants to speak and that it wants not that 922 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 19: many are going to probably have I'll do the Charlie 923 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 19: Kirk one hundred thousand. 924 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 1: You get a freak out our of its too. If 925 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,640 Speaker 1: you say that, but there. 926 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 15: Literally, Lillien people will be in and around, in and around. 927 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: Maybe. 928 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 14: Yeah, Okay, here's another one, Indiana redistricuting. Trump threatened those 929 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 14: Republicans in Indiana against redistricuting that if they don't change 930 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 14: their vote, they will get primary. Governor Mike Brown is 931 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 14: doing an excellent job. He as the Dems in Indianapolis 932 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 14: to contend with, but he's staying the course. 933 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 1: That's from Carol. Good for you, Carol. 934 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:28,759 Speaker 6: Oh. 935 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 15: Census William Bill Bill says any updates on running a 936 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 15: new census, I was literally thinking about it. 937 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: Well. 938 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,720 Speaker 15: So the difficulty with a new census is you can't 939 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,360 Speaker 15: just snap your fingers and do a census. It's actually 940 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 15: like a think. It costs twenty billion dollars to do 941 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 15: the census. You have to hire a bunch of people. 942 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 15: So unfortunately, you would need Congress to actually vote to 943 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 15: do it. So it's one of many things. I guess 944 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 15: you could do it if we for example, if we 945 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 15: abolished the filbuster and around it through then maybe, but uh, 946 00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:11,359 Speaker 15: we gotta take a break here. Our two coming up next. 947 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 18: Card debt is hidden all time high in America and 948 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 18: the system is rigged to keep you paying interest forever, 949 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 18: but you don't have to be trapped in that cycle. 950 00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 18: Iconic Debt Relief is helping people reduce their payments and 951 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 18: break free of the banks.

There may also be some 972 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 18: questions about the economy, specifically as it relates to President 973 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,400 Speaker 18: Trump's meeting yes this week, let's just put it that 974 00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 18: way with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince. And then you can 975 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,880 Speaker 18: also expect probably some economy questions relative to the cost 976 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 18: of Thanksgiving meals this year.

The troph of 982 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 18: documents should include all files and communications related to the 983 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 18: disgrace child predator, as well as any information about the 984 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 18: investigation into his death. Some information about victims could be 985 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:23,960 Speaker 18: redacted for ongoing federal investigations, but investigators can't withhold information 986 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 18: due to quote embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity. A 987 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 18: federal judge who has reviewed the case says they are 988 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 18: about one hundred thousand pages to release. 989 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:37,200 Speaker 17: Taking a true. 990 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 18: Social After signing the bill, President Trump began naming names 991 00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:45,320 Speaker 18: and pointing fingers at Democrats who were associates of Epstein. 992 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 18: In this true social post, he writes quote Democrat figures 993 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 18: such as Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Slee excuse me, Sleesbag, 994 00:49:56,600 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 18: political activist Reed Hoffman, Minority Leader Hakim Jeffrey's Democrat Congresswoman 995 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:05,839 Speaker 18: Stacey Plaskett, and many more. Perhaps the truth about these 996 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 18: Democrats and their associations with Jeffrey Epstein will soon be revealed. 997 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 18: Ukrainian President Voladimir Zelenski meeting with a US Army delegation 998 00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 18: in Ukraine today. The meeting comes as the Trump administration 999 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,360 Speaker 18: is out with the twenty eight point peace plan aimed 1000 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 18: at ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. The agreement 1001 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,200 Speaker 18: will reportedly see Ukraine give up some of its land 1002 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 18: and weapons, including cutting the size of Ukraine's military. President 1003 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 18: Trump's Special envoy Steve Witkoff, along with Vice President j. D. Vance, 1004 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 18: Secretary of State Marko Rubiel, and the president's son in law, 1005 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,440 Speaker 18: Jered Kushner, are said to have been instrumental in drafting 1006 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 18: this proposal. The plan is just now being presented to 1007 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 18: Ukrainian officials and reportedly does leave some room for negotiation. 1008 00:50:54,120 --> 00:50:57,080 Speaker 18: This latest attempt at bringing peace to the region comes 1009 00:50:57,120 --> 00:51:00,319 Speaker 18: after Russian missiles and drones just killed it at least 1010 00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 18: twenty five people in the latest round of fighting. A 1011 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 18: Chicago man accused of pouring gasolene on a fellow train 1012 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 18: passenger and lighting her on fire is now charged with 1013 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 18: terrorism charges this morning. Federal prosecutors say the fifty year 1014 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,839 Speaker 18: old was caught on surveillance video chasing the twenty six 1015 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 18: year old victim. 1016 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 17: Through the train while trying to ignite her. 1017 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 18: Chicago police say when they arrested the guy on Tuesday, 1018 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 18: he made incriminating statements, and during his initial court hearing Wednesday, 1019 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 18: he also yelled out, I plead guilty. That's a quote. 1020 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 18: The plea isn't official at this point. Investigators say that 1021 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:41,359 Speaker 18: he has a long criminal history and should not have 1022 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 18: been free to commit this crime. If convicted, the suspect 1023 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 18: faces up to life in prison. Should the victim die 1024 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:52,440 Speaker 18: from her injuries, prosecutors say the victim could be eligible 1025 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,520 Speaker 18: for or I'm sorry. The suspect could be eligible for 1026 00:51:55,560 --> 00:52:00,160 Speaker 18: the death penalty. However, Illinois abolished capital punishment back in 1027 00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,759 Speaker 18: twenty eleven. That's a great chuck of your headlines. I'm 1028 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:17,800 Speaker 18: Terrence Bates. 1029 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 1: All right, welcome to hour two of The Charlie Kirk Show. 1030 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 14: I'm Andrew COVID, executive producer of this show along with 1031 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:30,759 Speaker 14: Blake Neff. Really exciting hour two. Actually, we're gonna get 1032 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 14: a little deeper more. I don't want to say philosophical, 1033 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,600 Speaker 14: but this is gonna be a smart, elevated hour because 1034 00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 14: we're talking about some of these themes in American life, 1035 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 14: especially the modern American life, that kind of go under 1036 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 14: the radar, but they're having a profound impact on your taxes, 1037 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,400 Speaker 14: the way your government spend money, some of the fraud 1038 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 14: that's happening. We just had a congresswoman out of Florida 1039 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:54,520 Speaker 14: who was a grand jury returned to an indictment charging 1040 00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 14: her for stealing five million dollars of COVID fund. So 1041 00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,719 Speaker 14: this is kind of a story in that realm. This 1042 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 14: is we're going to welcome Ryan Thorpe. He's an investigated 1043 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,560 Speaker 14: journalist with Manhattan Institute.

We have a lot of Somali's in Minnesota 1049 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 15: and we've hit this beat a few times that there's 1050 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:27,319 Speaker 15: a lot of fraud of various kinds that goes on 1051 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,800 Speaker 15: because it's an insular community. But this piece really lays 1052 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 15: out how a lot of it works. So, Ryan, are 1053 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:33,200 Speaker 15: you there. 1054 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:34,919 Speaker 17: I am. 1055 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:36,279 Speaker 6: It's a pleasure to be here. 1056 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 15: Thank you very much. So, Ryan, how about you just 1057 00:53:39,480 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 15: dive into it. Al Shabab largest funder of Minnesota taxpayer. 1058 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 1: What do you mean by that? 1059 00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:49,479 Speaker 2: Well, so, what we're seeing in Minnesota is that there's 1060 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,760 Speaker 2: billions of dollars of fraud going on, particularly targeting government 1061 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 2: welfare programs. The fraud has gotten so bad that the 1062 00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:00,680 Speaker 2: US Attorney's Office is indicated that there are our entire 1063 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:05,800 Speaker 2: government welfare programs where the fraud outstrips the legitimate claims. 1064 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 2: These large scale fraud rings to date have largely been 1065 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 2: concentrated in Minnesota's Somali community. But this is an inconvenient 1066 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 2: fact that progressive politicians in Minnesota, and I would also 1067 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:25,719 Speaker 2: say the mainstream media has been unwilling or unable to acknowledge, 1068 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,960 Speaker 2: and over the course of our investigation for City Journal, 1069 00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 2: we developed several counter terrorism sources law enforcement sources who 1070 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 2: confirm to us that some of these stolen funds millions 1071 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 2: of dollars are being sent abroad through jwala networks, which 1072 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:45,800 Speaker 2: are informal money transfer networks that are popular in Islamic countries. 1073 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 2: This money has then gone overseas and some of that 1074 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 2: money has ended up in the hands of Al Schabab, 1075 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:55,360 Speaker 2: to the point that one of our sources said, the 1076 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 2: largest funder of Al Schibab is the Minnesota tax pair. 1077 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,080 Speaker 14: Well, can I just read I just want to give 1078 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 14: you your you some kudos here, right, because this is 1079 00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 14: you're opening you had me at Hello kind of moment 1080 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 14: you're opening to. This article is just so blunt and 1081 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 14: to the point I love it. I have to read it. 1082 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 14: Minnesota is drowning in fraud. Billions in taxpayer dollars have 1083 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 14: been stolen during the administration of Governor Tim Waltz Alone. Democrats, 1084 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,600 Speaker 14: state officials overseeing one of the most generous welfare regimes 1085 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:27,880 Speaker 14: in the country are asleep at the switch, and the media, 1086 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 14: duty bound by progressive pieties, refused. 1087 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 1: To connect the dots. 1088 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:33,760 Speaker 15: I mean, it's just really I want to really direct, 1089 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 15: I want to flag the numbers on here. So this 1090 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,120 Speaker 15: is one. This is so incredible. We're having crimew on 1091 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,560 Speaker 15: next to talk about healthcare. And when he came out 1092 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 15: on the show with Charlie a few months ago, one 1093 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,880 Speaker 15: of the things he said is he's like, he says, 1094 00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,360 Speaker 15: I think the number the growth of autism in America 1095 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 15: is overstated because they overdiagnose it. And the example he 1096 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 15: said is he said in Minnesota, Somali's are just scamming 1097 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 15: the autoism system to get a ton of money. 1098 00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:56,959 Speaker 1: And this is a quote. 1099 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:59,840 Speaker 15: I want to read this so like with another p 1100 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 15: Autism claims to medicated Minnesota have skyrocketed from three million 1101 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 15: dollars in twenty eighteen three million to I'm going to 1102 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 15: abreviate it three hundred and ninety nine million in twenty 1103 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,879 Speaker 15: twenty three. So they went up more than a one 1104 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:18,080 Speaker 15: hundred times over in five years. And it mentions the 1105 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,920 Speaker 15: number of autism providers went from forty one to three 1106 00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,360 Speaker 15: hundred and twenty eight. And then it says the Somali 1107 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 15: community has established autism treatment centers for culturally appropriate programming. 1108 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 15: One in sixteen Somali four year olds has reportedly been 1109 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 15: diagnosed with autism. Are they just letting anything happen and 1110 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,000 Speaker 15: they're not doing any policing whatsoever. 1111 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:41,720 Speaker 1: Ryan, Well, it's very. 1112 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 2: Clear with these government programs that there weren't many checks 1113 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:47,799 Speaker 2: and balances that were built into the system, and that 1114 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 2: this was done by design. I mean, this was done 1115 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 2: purposefully to help facilitate money going out the door, ostensibly 1116 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 2: to people in need. And what's interesting about the autism 1117 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 2: fraud case, the first indictment that's come down the US 1118 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:05,840 Speaker 2: Attorney's Office indicates the more indictments will be coming, is 1119 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:09,279 Speaker 2: that it is very clear the extent to which this 1120 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:13,240 Speaker 2: fraud scheme penetrated the wider smaller community. So this wasn't 1121 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 2: just a bad apple. The woman accused in this case 1122 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,600 Speaker 2: would approach members of the smaller community in Minnesota who 1123 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 2: had children, she would sign them up for autism services. 1124 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 2: If the child wasn't autistic, she would get them a 1125 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 2: fraudulent diagnosis, and then kickbacks would be paid to smallly 1126 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 2: parents in the state who had signed up their children 1127 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:41,800 Speaker 2: for fraudulent autism services. And the US Attorney's Office noted 1128 00:57:42,120 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 2: that if the kickbacks were too low, the parents would 1129 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 2: threaten to pull their child from one provider and order 1130 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 2: and take them over to a different fraudulent provider in 1131 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,760 Speaker 2: order to get more money that was being stolen from 1132 00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 2: taxpayers through the scheme. 1133 00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: So that's the autism wasn't exact ample. 1134 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 15: Can you also describe this this this homelessness one the 1135 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 15: Medicaid Housing Stabilization Service, Can you explain how that fraud 1136 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 15: worked as well and any others that come to mind. 1137 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Housing Stabilization Services program was quite interesting because 1138 00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 2: if you were to design a government program specifically to 1139 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:24,600 Speaker 2: facilitate fraud fraudulent claims, it would probably look a lot 1140 00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 2: like this program was designed. There were almost no checks 1141 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:32,320 Speaker 2: and balances baked into this system. It was launched in 1142 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,720 Speaker 2: twenty twenty with i would say, a fairly noble goal. 1143 00:58:36,160 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 2: It was seeking to get people who are struggling with 1144 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 2: drug and alcohol addiction, mental illness, people with disabilities to 1145 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:47,560 Speaker 2: help them find and secure housing. The US Attorney's Office 1146 00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 2: claims that you know, fraudulent companies were set up. They 1147 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 2: were operating out of you know, dilapidated storefronts. They would 1148 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:01,280 Speaker 2: target people that were exiting drug and drug rehabs, they 1149 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 2: would sign them up for medicaid services that you know, 1150 00:59:04,280 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 2: they had no intention of providing, and then they would 1151 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 2: simply pocket the money. And yet again we've seen the 1152 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 2: claims under this program absolutely skyrocket. When it was launched 1153 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty, government officials estimated it would cost but 1154 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: two point six million dollars a year. By twenty twenty four, 1155 00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 2: it cost one hundred and four million, and in the 1156 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: first six months of this year alone, claims were sixty 1157 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,880 Speaker 2: one million dollars. At that point, the state stepped in 1158 00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 2: and shuttered the program because they realized that, you know, 1159 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 2: they had a significant problem on their hands in regards 1160 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:42,400 Speaker 2: to fraud. And the US Attorney's Office has indicated in 1161 00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,919 Speaker 2: a press conference that the US Attorney at the time 1162 00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 2: he believed there were more there's more fraudulent activity in 1163 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 2: this program than there were legitimate claims. There have been 1164 00:59:53,520 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 2: eight indictments to date for HSS fraud. Six of the 1165 00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:00,880 Speaker 2: eight men who had been accused were of small heritage, 1166 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 2: two were Nigerian of Nigerian heritage, and they're accused of 1167 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:10,760 Speaker 2: defrauding millions of dollars from this government welfare program. And 1168 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:14,360 Speaker 2: yet again it's been indicated that more charges will be coming. 1169 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 15: Is it as simple as it looks? Where I guess 1170 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 15: the stereotype would be, It's Minnesota. You've got a lot 1171 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 15: of Swedes, Norwegians, sort of Nordic high trust people, very 1172 01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,800 Speaker 15: used to doing pro social behaviors, and it's almost like 1173 01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,080 Speaker 15: they're like an animal on an island that has no predators. 1174 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 15: So the thought that someone would just fleece a program 1175 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 15: or just lie about it is so aliens, like they 1176 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 15: just have no defenses against this sort of behavior. 1177 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:42,800 Speaker 1: Is it that simple? 1178 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 15: Is there any interest in fixing this other than arresting 1179 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 15: people occasionally? 1180 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,440 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I think that's a really good point. 1181 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:53,320 Speaker 2: I think that does help explain some of what's going on. 1182 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:57,040 Speaker 2: As I was recording this piece out, the picture that 1183 01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,800 Speaker 2: was emerging was really of a perfect storm in Minnesota 1184 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 2: to facilitate fraud on a massive scale. You have a 1185 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 2: sizable smally community that comes from a tribal clan based society, 1186 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 2: and it has proven itself willing to cynically deploy accusations 1187 01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,360 Speaker 2: of racism as a shield in order to help cover 1188 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:22,560 Speaker 2: up criminal behavior. You have a very generous, very progressive 1189 01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 2: welfare state, and in many of these programs checks and balances, 1190 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 2: they were specifically designed with very few in place. And 1191 01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 2: then you have a progressive political establishment that is terrified 1192 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 2: of being seen as politically incorrect and also worried about 1193 01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 2: alienating the Somali community, which is a sizeable voting block 1194 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 2: in the state and has also established significant political connections. 1195 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 2: And so when those three things kind of collide, this 1196 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 2: is what you get. 1197 01:01:57,400 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 14: We're going to have more on this with Ryan Thorpe 1198 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:02,840 Speaker 14: from City Journal Manhattan Institute in just a second.

He 1249 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 14: has a great new piece about Mogadisho, Minnesota. And I 1250 01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 14: want to get into this, Ryan, because how much of 1251 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:59,840 Speaker 14: this is is is essentially Western culture confronting. I mean, 1252 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 14: let's just be honest, a very backwards, tribalistic African culture 1253 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:06,720 Speaker 14: that has been imported into our country and they're just 1254 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:10,280 Speaker 14: colliding and they don't understand each other or is mean 1255 01:05:10,480 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 14: Somali seem to understand us. They're taking they're taking us 1256 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:14,880 Speaker 14: taken advantage of Minnesota? 1257 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,800 Speaker 1: Nice? How much of it is a cultural breakdown though? 1258 01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 14: Where where Americans in Minnesota they simply cannot fathom the 1259 01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 14: cynical nature of these of these schemes and these cons. 1260 01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:29,760 Speaker 2: Well, I would say that the sources I've spoken to 1261 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 2: in Minnesota have indicated that as a significant contributing factor 1262 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 2: in regards to these large scale fraud rings that we're seeing, 1263 01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:41,720 Speaker 2: there is a cultural component here. You know, when you're 1264 01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 2: talking about people of smaller heritage that have landed in Minnesota, 1265 01:05:46,280 --> 01:05:49,160 Speaker 2: these are people that come from a very tribal, clan 1266 01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:54,560 Speaker 2: based society. They have likely spent time in a refugee 1267 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:58,280 Speaker 2: camp prior to arriving in America, where I would imagine 1268 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 2: you have to be pretty resourceful in order to get by. 1269 01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:05,680 Speaker 2: They then come to a traditionally very high trust state 1270 01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 2: with significant welfare programs, perhaps the most generous in the country, 1271 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:15,960 Speaker 2: and quite clearly by the criminal indictments that have been 1272 01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 2: coming down, many people in the Smoy community have figured 1273 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 2: out how to fraudulently obtain significant amounts of money We're 1274 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 2: talking about billions of taxpayer dollars here that have stolen 1275 01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:33,560 Speaker 2: fraud rings that run two hundreds of millions of dollars alone. 1276 01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 2: So I don't think you can discount that clash of 1277 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 2: cultures as a major factor. And what we're seeing that's 1278 01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:41,680 Speaker 2: going on. 1279 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 1: Well, listen to this. This is a quote from your piece. 1280 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 1: What we are seeing. What we see are schemes stacked 1281 01:06:46,720 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 1: upon schemes, draining resources meant for those in need. It 1282 01:06:49,640 --> 01:06:51,160 Speaker 1: feels never ending. 1283 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 14: I've spent my career as this guy named Thompson as 1284 01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 14: a fraud prosecutor, and the depth of the fraud of 1285 01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:00,640 Speaker 14: Minnesota takes my breath away. What can be like if 1286 01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:03,400 Speaker 14: you were gonna I mean, is there a significant move 1287 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 14: to actually denaturalize, to deport some of these people that 1288 01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:10,040 Speaker 14: are here on protected status or on a temporary status 1289 01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 14: of some nature. Is there is there a way that 1290 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 14: you would dismantle this that would actually fix the problem 1291 01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:17,439 Speaker 14: or it feels like we're just gonna be playing whack 1292 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,400 Speaker 14: a mole for years here in Minnesota. 1293 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 2: Well, the sources that I've spoken to these are political people, 1294 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:28,439 Speaker 2: law enforcement, counter terrorism folks. I put this question to them. 1295 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,920 Speaker 2: You know what needs to happen here. You know, they 1296 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:34,680 Speaker 2: don't discount the fact that there is a role for 1297 01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 2: law enforcement to play. They have been cracking down on 1298 01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 2: many of these major fraud rings. There's more work to 1299 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 2: be done, more indictments will be coming. But pretty much 1300 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 2: across the board, people that I spoke to said there 1301 01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 2: really isn't a law enforcement solution to this problem. As 1302 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 2: you said, that's simply playing whack a mole. People pretty 1303 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:58,400 Speaker 2: consistently told me that, you know, there needs to be 1304 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 2: a policy change, and there clearly needs to be more 1305 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:06,880 Speaker 2: accountability from the state government in Minnesota, which under Tim Waltz, 1306 01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 2: has been overseeing fraud after fraud to the point where 1307 01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 2: the fraud has taken over entire government programs. So there 1308 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 2: has to be a policy solution here. Simply hoping for 1309 01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 2: law enforcement to clean the mess up is naive. 1310 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 15: Yeah, it really is a striking case, the most extreme 1311 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:30,639 Speaker 15: thing of when you bring in people from a different culture, 1312 01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:34,160 Speaker 15: You bring in a different culture, and it really manifests 1313 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 15: the way that it's so large and so many people 1314 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,960 Speaker 15: are involved. Like we didn't even talk about the Feeding 1315 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 15: our Future scam, another scam they did during COVID where 1316 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:44,679 Speaker 15: they were pretending to feed thousands and thousands of kids 1317 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,280 Speaker 15: got millions of dollars, and it was I think one 1318 01:08:47,479 --> 01:08:49,479 Speaker 15: white Lutheran woman at the top of it and then 1319 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,360 Speaker 15: fifty plus people from the Somali community doing the rest 1320 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,040 Speaker 15: of it. That it really is just who you have 1321 01:08:56,240 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 15: any moral relationship to as people in your extended family, 1322 01:09:00,439 --> 01:09:02,720 Speaker 15: people in your clan, people in that community, and you 1323 01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 15: have no moral relationship or otherwise with the government, with 1324 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:10,679 Speaker 15: wider society. You've basically brought a people within a separate 1325 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,640 Speaker 15: group of people who just don't feel any obligation to 1326 01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:15,920 Speaker 15: the rest of the citizenry, and they think it's totally 1327 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:20,720 Speaker 15: valid to just loot that community for everything they have. 1328 01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:22,840 Speaker 15: And I think the only way the only way you 1329 01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:26,879 Speaker 15: can deal with that is you basically need to impose 1330 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,600 Speaker 15: far higher standards for any benefits you're going to do 1331 01:09:29,640 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 15: all out, or you also have to say, frankly, why 1332 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:34,760 Speaker 15: are we doing this in the first place?

I'm 1400 01:13:22,760 --> 01:13:26,040 Speaker 14: Andrew Colvett, Executive producer of the show. Blake Neff another 1401 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:29,040 Speaker 14: one of the producers here are not so secret weapon, 1402 01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:30,680 Speaker 14: as I like to call him. He always looks at 1403 01:13:30,680 --> 01:13:32,640 Speaker 14: me sideways when I say it, though, I want to 1404 01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:35,679 Speaker 14: tell you really quickly about our friends over at TikTok. 1405 01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:39,480 Speaker 14: Connection and open dialogue. These are the things that build communities. 1406 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 14: Charlie believe that TikTok believes that that's why TikTok has 1407 01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,160 Speaker 14: built a space where that kind of listening actually happens. 1408 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:49,479 Speaker 14: People don't just post, they respond, and they build upon 1409 01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:52,439 Speaker 14: each other's ideas. You'll see a teacher simplifying a tough 1410 01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 14: lesson so it finally clicks for the student or gardener 1411 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:57,759 Speaker 14: sharing a trick that saved their crop. But what matters 1412 01:13:57,920 --> 01:14:00,479 Speaker 14: most isn't the video, it's what comes next when asking 1413 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 14: a question, someone else answering with a story of their own, 1414 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 14: building upon the initial original idea, and suddenly people who've 1415 01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 14: never met become a community built on shared curiosity. When 1416 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 14: people listen and understand, a shift happens. Walls come down, 1417 01:14:16,360 --> 01:14:20,840 Speaker 14: ideas travel further, and connection, real connection takes their place. 1418 01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,120 Speaker 1: That is what listening does. 1419 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,400 Speaker 14: It reminds us that we're not as different as we 1420 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:27,679 Speaker 14: thought we were, and that's what makes TikTok so powerful. 1421 01:14:27,680 --> 01:14:30,320 Speaker 14: It's a place where every post can turn into a conversation, 1422 01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,360 Speaker 14: and every conversation can make a difference. Charlie had billions 1423 01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:37,920 Speaker 14: and billions of views on TikTok uh. So that is 1424 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:42,559 Speaker 14: that we now have our next guest, Kraymu. He's the 1425 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,519 Speaker 14: author of the Krameu sub stack and you can find 1426 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 14: him on exit kra moo uh. 1427 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:51,640 Speaker 1: How do you pronounce that? 1428 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:57,639 Speaker 15: Welcome to the show here, Yes, we can hear you. 1429 01:14:57,640 --> 01:14:59,559 Speaker 1: You're a bit okay, there you are. You're a bit 1430 01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:01,920 Speaker 1: off center. There. We'll get it, we'll get it right. 1431 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:05,800 Speaker 15: But we wanted to have you on because there's been 1432 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:09,120 Speaker 15: You're a big expert on healthcare. Healthcare has totally taken 1433 01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:12,200 Speaker 15: over a lot of the discussion in the US as 1434 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:15,480 Speaker 15: one of the biggest sources of rising costs in America. 1435 01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:19,519 Speaker 15: You know, people are let's just play one of these clips. Actually, 1436 01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:21,880 Speaker 15: I think that'll set it up nicely. Primer, how about 1437 01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 15: we do uh, let's just do sixty three? 1438 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 6: Going to hear horrible stories. 1439 01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:30,200 Speaker 7: People are not going to be able to afford their 1440 01:15:30,240 --> 01:15:33,040 Speaker 7: their insurance. I don't think even with subsidies, they're going 1441 01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:36,680 Speaker 7: to be able to assure to afford the premiums that 1442 01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:40,360 Speaker 7: are hiking up one hundred, two hundred and three supposed 1443 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,879 Speaker 7: to fix on people. No, well not without the universal 1444 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:44,719 Speaker 7: I mean, there's affordable care. 1445 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:48,880 Speaker 14: And I want to I want to throw up this 1446 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:51,800 Speaker 14: as the last primary here Krame Mood two seventy nine. 1447 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,800 Speaker 14: This is the average annual expenditures for health insurance per 1448 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,599 Speaker 14: household consumer unit. And you can see that big jump 1449 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:02,840 Speaker 14: there right when the Affordable Care Act was implemented into law. 1450 01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:06,519 Speaker 14: So healthcare is far out pacing the trend that we 1451 01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:09,160 Speaker 14: saw before the ACA was passed. So we call it 1452 01:16:09,160 --> 01:16:13,320 Speaker 14: the Unaffordable Care Act, and that really is the foundation 1453 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 14: for our discussion. So Gray move, what is going wrong 1454 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:18,080 Speaker 14: with American health care? 1455 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 20: So I would qualify that last bit a little bit. 1456 01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:27,920 Speaker 20: I would say healthcare spending isn't really growing way over. 1457 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:30,200 Speaker 6: What you would expect before the ACA. 1458 01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 20: We're looking at different metrics there, but if you use 1459 01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:36,120 Speaker 20: consistent ones, it looks pretty like fine. The bigger issue 1460 01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:38,720 Speaker 20: is that we have it just shouldn't be growing this 1461 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:40,920 Speaker 20: way in the first place. The like it is a 1462 01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 20: completely broken system in the sense that we have created 1463 01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:47,680 Speaker 20: incentives that to make it worse. So wow, sorry, it's 1464 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:49,679 Speaker 20: really disorienting looking at myself twice on the screen. 1465 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 6: You know, let me just keep care of myself. 1466 01:16:52,600 --> 01:16:55,439 Speaker 20: Sorry, I'm like, I'm looking at myself and seeing like 1467 01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:56,599 Speaker 20: this is don't. 1468 01:16:56,400 --> 01:16:58,639 Speaker 1: Worry about it. Don't worry about it, just keep going. 1469 01:16:58,800 --> 01:17:00,840 Speaker 1: Just owned out. 1470 01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:01,760 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1471 01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 20: So, we have a lot of things in healthcare post 1472 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:10,200 Speaker 20: ACA especially that are terrible in the sense that, for example, 1473 01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:14,120 Speaker 20: take the medical loss ratio requirement. This is the requirement 1474 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:17,040 Speaker 20: that health insurance have to spend eighty to ninety percent, 1475 01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 20: depending on the type of plan, so eighty five percent 1476 01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:19,719 Speaker 20: of there so of. 1477 01:17:19,640 --> 01:17:21,719 Speaker 6: Their premiums each year. 1478 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,800 Speaker 20: So if they charge their customers x amount, they have 1479 01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:28,679 Speaker 20: to spend eighty five percent of X. And the fact 1480 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,600 Speaker 20: that they have to spend that amount is effectively a 1481 01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:32,320 Speaker 20: profit gap. So they have to make profits in other ways, 1482 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:35,240 Speaker 20: and to make those profits they look into other things 1483 01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 20: like buying up the pharmacy benefit managers, or buying up hospitals, 1484 01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:44,519 Speaker 20: or sneakily changing the prices or even over paying for 1485 01:17:44,720 --> 01:17:49,800 Speaker 20: drugs in order to meet the threshold of things they 1486 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:54,080 Speaker 20: have to pay for. So you end up with costs 1487 01:17:54,439 --> 01:17:57,240 Speaker 20: just kind of running everywhere. You end up with incentives 1488 01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:00,920 Speaker 20: for vertical integration such that they're buying up everything else 1489 01:18:01,240 --> 01:18:03,880 Speaker 20: and the number of competitors that comes into the market 1490 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 20: is very, very small, because again, who's going to invest 1491 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:08,639 Speaker 20: in a company, a new company that has to spend 1492 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,240 Speaker 20: eighty five percent of its revenues every year. 1493 01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:13,600 Speaker 6: That thought a very good investment. With a lot of 1494 01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 6: other issues. 1495 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:17,559 Speaker 20: The ACA also, for example, had a lot of stuff 1496 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:20,760 Speaker 20: that was informed by small, kind of crappy studies. So 1497 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:23,759 Speaker 20: there was this idea that came about as an example 1498 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:29,040 Speaker 20: of this, where hospitals run by doctors would be lower performing, 1499 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:31,200 Speaker 20: and the reality was they actually going to be higher performing. 1500 01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:33,720 Speaker 6: But the ACA when it was written wasn't. 1501 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:35,960 Speaker 20: Like, it wasn't based this idea was not based on 1502 01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,640 Speaker 20: good empirical evidence. It was based on bad evidence. So 1503 01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:43,320 Speaker 20: they ended up banning doctors from establishing new like physician 1504 01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:44,640 Speaker 20: run hospitals. 1505 01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 6: They do. There's a lot of things in there that. 1506 01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:50,160 Speaker 14: Are just kind of great move that seems like it 1507 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:53,320 Speaker 14: should be illegal. How could you ban somebody from starting 1508 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:53,799 Speaker 14: a business. 1509 01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:54,519 Speaker 1: I don't understand. 1510 01:18:54,680 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 14: It's just is this like a real ban or you 1511 01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 14: just can't get access to insurance funds or something. 1512 01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 6: No, it's a real band. Unfortunately, you cannot start a 1513 01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 6: new one. 1514 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:06,080 Speaker 20: There are some existing physician run hospitals that pre date 1515 01:19:06,120 --> 01:19:07,760 Speaker 20: the ACA's band going into effect, but. 1516 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 6: You can't start a new physician run hospitals. And that's 1517 01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:10,519 Speaker 6: a specific thing. 1518 01:19:10,560 --> 01:19:12,719 Speaker 20: So if you want to give up being a practicing physician, 1519 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:15,360 Speaker 20: you can still start a hospital, but you can't both 1520 01:19:15,400 --> 01:19:17,679 Speaker 20: be a practicing physician and run the hospital. 1521 01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 15: That's so interesting. So I guess, just big picture, there's 1522 01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:22,479 Speaker 15: a lot of debate. 1523 01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:24,720 Speaker 1: You know, the GOP and Trump's first term tried to. 1524 01:19:24,680 --> 01:19:27,760 Speaker 15: Repeal and replace Obamacare. They failed thanks to our late 1525 01:19:27,840 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 15: senator here. But I guess people talk a lot about 1526 01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:36,600 Speaker 15: rising costs. But if there were targeted reforms that the 1527 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:39,640 Speaker 15: Republican Party could start advocating, what do you think some 1528 01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:42,080 Speaker 15: of the best ones would be tons. 1529 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,720 Speaker 20: So a lot of the problem is that we have 1530 01:19:45,880 --> 01:19:49,599 Speaker 20: good ideas that have been actually supposed to be put 1531 01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:52,720 Speaker 20: into effect. For example, price transparency is the law of 1532 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:54,879 Speaker 20: the land right now. If you go to a hospital, 1533 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:58,639 Speaker 20: they are required to provide you with a credible list 1534 01:19:58,640 --> 01:19:58,960 Speaker 20: of all. 1535 01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:00,960 Speaker 6: The prices before any operation has done on you. 1536 01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:03,160 Speaker 20: You were suposed to be given a price that is 1537 01:20:03,240 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 20: reasonable and that you will end up paying because once they, 1538 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 20: you know, put the number out there, they have to 1539 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:11,760 Speaker 20: charge that for you unless some reasonable complication comes up. 1540 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:13,799 Speaker 6: But the law is not enforced. 1541 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:16,840 Speaker 20: The regulation for price transparency was supposed to go into 1542 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:19,760 Speaker 20: effect on October first, and I looked around at a 1543 01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:22,479 Speaker 20: sample of local hospitals and I found, Hey, you guys 1544 01:20:22,520 --> 01:20:26,439 Speaker 20: still aren't transparent about your prices. It's a lot of 1545 01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:28,799 Speaker 20: the issue with this stuff is that we don't actually 1546 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:30,960 Speaker 20: enforce the rules, which is. 1547 01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:34,160 Speaker 6: Bizarre. I don't know, like, do you what do you 1548 01:20:34,200 --> 01:20:34,920 Speaker 6: say about that? 1549 01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:37,479 Speaker 15: At the end of the day, that sounds like a 1550 01:20:37,479 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 15: good chance to do populism, you know, have the Trump 1551 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:43,280 Speaker 15: admin just sue a big hospital or like purf block 1552 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:46,400 Speaker 15: some random like official at like a really big hospital. 1553 01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 14: And when was that law? When was that law passed 1554 01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:52,840 Speaker 14: into law? That that was supposed to go into effect 1555 01:20:52,840 --> 01:20:55,559 Speaker 14: on October first, So that was a regulation. 1556 01:20:56,160 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 20: The law that provided the regulation with power is like 1557 01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:01,760 Speaker 20: very I think it's like like a decade old. 1558 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:04,759 Speaker 14: Did that caught up in like the government shutdown or something? 1559 01:21:04,800 --> 01:21:07,320 Speaker 14: I mean, or we're just no, it predated it. 1560 01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:08,040 Speaker 1: There's just not a. 1561 01:21:08,000 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 14: Mechanism to enforce it. Yeah, the present the trumpet should 1562 01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:13,240 Speaker 14: absolutely start start ensuring this. 1563 01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:15,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, well what else? Yeah what else? Though, yeah, we 1564 01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:15,760 Speaker 1: cut you off their of. 1565 01:21:15,760 --> 01:21:16,680 Speaker 6: Itll There are tons of things. 1566 01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:19,040 Speaker 20: So, for example, patients are actually entitled to all of 1567 01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:21,519 Speaker 20: your data. If a doctor generates some data and goes 1568 01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:23,439 Speaker 20: in your EHR, you are supposed to be able to 1569 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,479 Speaker 20: get access to that. You should be able to ask 1570 01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 20: your physician and have your physician give that to you 1571 01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:30,880 Speaker 20: in some format that can be used by you, the patient. 1572 01:21:31,439 --> 01:21:34,479 Speaker 20: The same thing applies to the cms's clear certified labs. 1573 01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:38,320 Speaker 20: So like IVF clinics, if a parent has some sequencing 1574 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:39,960 Speaker 20: done in like one of their embryos, they should be 1575 01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:41,599 Speaker 20: able to get that data, but. 1576 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:47,200 Speaker 6: They don't. In fact, I think it was September fourteenth, 1577 01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:48,519 Speaker 6: if I'm recalling the date correctly. 1578 01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:50,960 Speaker 20: RFK put out a little video saying that patients are 1579 01:21:51,040 --> 01:21:54,000 Speaker 20: entitled to their data and at some date in the 1580 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,200 Speaker 20: future there'd be a little not a hotline, but like 1581 01:21:56,240 --> 01:21:59,040 Speaker 20: a little form online you can go fill out to 1582 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:01,680 Speaker 20: report when data is not provided to you when you 1583 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:02,599 Speaker 20: ask for it, and. 1584 01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:04,120 Speaker 6: They just don't. They don't do it. 1585 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:07,040 Speaker 20: So it's like it's not even things that are high 1586 01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 20: costs that are being enforced it's also things that are 1587 01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:12,759 Speaker 20: just good. Like I said, from a patient rights perspective, 1588 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 20: that just nobody follows the rules because there there. 1589 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:17,480 Speaker 6: Are enforcement mechanisms. 1590 01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:22,120 Speaker 20: To be clear, CMS can really start hitting hospitals very hard. 1591 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:25,240 Speaker 20: They can hit providers in ways that make their pocketbooks screen, 1592 01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:28,400 Speaker 20: but they don't. And that is the biggest sue at 1593 01:22:28,400 --> 01:22:30,679 Speaker 20: the end of the day, is that they have enforcement mechanisms, 1594 01:22:30,680 --> 01:22:32,880 Speaker 20: they don't enforce them for all sorts of things. Another 1595 01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:36,720 Speaker 20: thing is, for example, cite neutral payments. So if you 1596 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 20: are running a hospital chain and you buy up a clinic, 1597 01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 20: you can charge hospital prices at that clinical location, even 1598 01:22:43,120 --> 01:22:44,160 Speaker 20: if they're totally separate. 1599 01:22:44,680 --> 01:22:45,839 Speaker 6: You just bought the location. 1600 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:49,600 Speaker 20: You didn't change anyway it's run. But that allows you 1601 01:22:49,640 --> 01:22:51,519 Speaker 20: to charge the hospital runings. You're so stupit to change 1602 01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 20: like that sort of thing should be outlawed, and it 1603 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:55,600 Speaker 20: was supposed to be outlawed on October. 1604 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:58,360 Speaker 6: First, But guess what's still in effect non neutral payments. 1605 01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:03,160 Speaker 20: It's thanks sir, so so crimea. 1606 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 14: It feels like you're sort of painting a picture that 1607 01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:08,360 Speaker 14: the health industry is plagued by death of a thousand cuts. 1608 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 14: There's maybe isn't one silver bullet. But you know, we 1609 01:23:12,520 --> 01:23:13,400 Speaker 14: were talkinking of. 1610 01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 1: A thousand cuts. It's so big. 1611 01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:16,840 Speaker 15: It seems like they just feel that it's so big 1612 01:23:16,880 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 15: and so impenetrable they can just ignore they. 1613 01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:21,519 Speaker 1: But so we have to, we have to, that's right. 1614 01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:25,400 Speaker 14: There has to be an initiative though, from probably the 1615 01:23:25,479 --> 01:23:27,760 Speaker 14: highest levels of our government to start enforcing some of 1616 01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:30,719 Speaker 14: these regulatory changes that are supposed to benefit the patients. 1617 01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:33,320 Speaker 14: So here's here's something we talked about. Now, are one 1618 01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:35,880 Speaker 14: that a lot of the problems in the country you 1619 01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:37,160 Speaker 14: could sort of trace back to. 1620 01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: Illegal migration, illegal immigrants. 1621 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:43,040 Speaker 14: How much of the rise in healthcare prices could you 1622 01:23:43,360 --> 01:23:47,360 Speaker 14: trace back to illegal immigrants on the dole or within 1623 01:23:47,439 --> 01:23:50,040 Speaker 14: the system or or is that not a driver in 1624 01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 14: your opinion, not a big driver. 1625 01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 20: The most liberal estimate that I've seen that's credible is 1626 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:57,200 Speaker 20: about point nine percent, and that's quite that's stretching it. 1627 01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:58,479 Speaker 6: Honestly, I think it's not that much. 1628 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:02,360 Speaker 20: Yeah, the main cost drivers have to do with old people. 1629 01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:05,599 Speaker 20: Old people are the biggest parts here, and the fact 1630 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:07,720 Speaker 20: that we have bad incentives for cost control and we 1631 01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 20: don't allow certain types of cost control to even be 1632 01:24:10,080 --> 01:24:10,759 Speaker 20: put into place. 1633 01:24:11,120 --> 01:24:14,160 Speaker 6: So the AMA is really your bigger problem here. 1634 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:16,960 Speaker 20: Most of your growth is provider side rents, and that 1635 01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 20: means the payments that go to doctors that are way 1636 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 20: in excess of what the doctors like that the care 1637 01:24:23,400 --> 01:24:24,280 Speaker 20: that providing is worth. 1638 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:26,599 Speaker 6: That's most of your issue. 1639 01:24:26,640 --> 01:24:30,800 Speaker 20: And we could lower provider side rents by allowing more physicians, 1640 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:33,840 Speaker 20: but we have placed an effective cap on the rate 1641 01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 20: of growth, not on the actual number of slots, but 1642 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:40,439 Speaker 20: on the rate of growth in Medicare funding for residency slots. 1643 01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:42,439 Speaker 20: So the number of doctors who can actually come in 1644 01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:44,880 Speaker 20: and compete with the doctors and lower the rents and 1645 01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 20: make it so they you know, they're paid less but 1646 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,519 Speaker 20: they provide more because they're going to be more of 1647 01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:53,080 Speaker 20: them is limited. It's been limited since nineteen ninety four, 1648 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:54,479 Speaker 20: and we just don't chan. 1649 01:24:55,120 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 1: What happened in ninety four. What happened in ninety four. 1650 01:24:58,040 --> 01:24:58,960 Speaker 6: Oh, this is amazing. 1651 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:00,840 Speaker 20: So the ama are argue there was going to be 1652 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:03,439 Speaker 20: a surplus of doctors, there were going to be too 1653 01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:06,000 Speaker 20: many doctors, and that this would cause a big problem. 1654 01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:08,800 Speaker 20: And you have to think, how can there be a 1655 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:09,759 Speaker 20: surplus of doctors. 1656 01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:11,080 Speaker 6: Don't we always need more doctors? 1657 01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:14,120 Speaker 20: The answer is yeah, of course, but they managed to 1658 01:25:14,120 --> 01:25:16,599 Speaker 20: somehow convince Congress this was an issue that would impact 1659 01:25:16,640 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 20: the quality of care when it makes no sense. And 1660 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,519 Speaker 20: then they got these limits set in place. And now 1661 01:25:21,760 --> 01:25:24,200 Speaker 20: they argue to get away from the fact that they 1662 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:28,799 Speaker 20: did this. They argue, well, we don't limit the actual 1663 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:32,400 Speaker 20: number of residency slots, but they ignore that, yes, there's 1664 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:34,719 Speaker 20: still limitations on the growth in the number of slots 1665 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:38,520 Speaker 20: and the funding mechanisms available to create more slots outside. 1666 01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:39,080 Speaker 6: Of medicare funding. 1667 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,400 Speaker 20: So they created a broken system where we can't actually 1668 01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:44,320 Speaker 20: fix the issue with the provider's side rants, which is 1669 01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:46,719 Speaker 20: roughly a third of all of the spending problems. 1670 01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 15: I think we should go through the break on one. No, 1671 01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:50,120 Speaker 15: we're going to go through the break really quick. 1672 01:25:51,520 --> 01:25:53,320 Speaker 14: I'm going to tell our audience about one of our 1673 01:25:53,320 --> 01:25:55,679 Speaker 14: partners and we'll we'll get back to in just one second. 1674 01:25:55,880 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 14: When you're buried in credit card and loan debt, it's 1675 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:01,439 Speaker 14: human nature to put it off and procrastinate. I've been 1676 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:04,280 Speaker 14: there and say I'll deal with it later. If that's you. 1677 01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,639 Speaker 14: Here's a hidden fact the debt strategy experts at Done 1678 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,320 Speaker 14: with Debt shared with me.

We have effectively banned, We've 1702 01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:16,240 Speaker 6: made no incentives to do it. 1703 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 14: So just so I'm understanding, because I want to make 1704 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 14: sure I understand exactly what you're saying. If we send 1705 01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:26,920 Speaker 14: a dollar, we spend one dollar on health care, eighty 1706 01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 14: five percent of that has to go to the actual treatments, 1707 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:33,280 Speaker 14: meaning that the providers are only allowed to take fifteen 1708 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:38,479 Speaker 14: percent of Okay, okay, yeah, no anything thirty seconds. Then 1709 01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 14: we're going to welcome back radio for our last segments. 1710 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,880 Speaker 14: So thirty seconds here sounds good, Yeah, go for it. 1711 01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:48,479 Speaker 20: Any anything not administrative, So that fifteen percent is whatever's 1712 01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:51,559 Speaker 20: left over. And what that means is that in order 1713 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:54,040 Speaker 20: to meet that level, like at the end of a 1714 01:27:54,040 --> 01:27:55,840 Speaker 20: billing cycle, what they'll do is they'll just pay more 1715 01:27:55,880 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 20: for stuff. 1716 01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:58,160 Speaker 6: So if a if a doctor says like. 1717 01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:01,320 Speaker 20: I want to build blah blah blah, okay blah blah blah, 1718 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:04,160 Speaker 20: they'll pay more for medication, they'll overpay for all sorts 1719 01:28:04,160 --> 01:28:05,880 Speaker 20: of things. They'll get wrong claims and just pay them 1720 01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:07,559 Speaker 20: because they want to meet they have to meet this 1721 01:28:07,680 --> 01:28:15,200 Speaker 20: legal requirement. And in order to manage like this fact, 1722 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:19,000 Speaker 20: they transfer large portions of their medical claim revenue to 1723 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:23,559 Speaker 20: their PBMs. They're subsidiaries that aren't regulated directly by this regulation. 1724 01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 14: All right, we're going to welcome back radio to continue 1725 01:28:26,400 --> 01:28:38,960 Speaker 14: with Cray move. Fascinating conversation, will be right, bet all right, 1726 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:42,080 Speaker 14: welcome back, So Cray Move. It sounds like there's bait. 1727 01:28:42,560 --> 01:28:46,599 Speaker 14: You said that these two buckets, they essentially lead to 1728 01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,160 Speaker 14: ninety percent of the problems with the ACA. If you so, 1729 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:52,200 Speaker 14: if you were consulting President Trump JD. Vance, would you 1730 01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:54,959 Speaker 14: just say deal with this eighty five percent ratio issue? 1731 01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:58,759 Speaker 14: And it sounds like one I forget with the other one. No, no, okay. 1732 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:04,320 Speaker 20: So the these issues are unfortunately statutory. There are so 1733 01:29:04,360 --> 01:29:07,519 Speaker 20: statutory means that Congress is the reason for the issue 1734 01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,880 Speaker 20: Congress has in the case of the MLR, the medical 1735 01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:13,479 Speaker 20: loss ratio requirement that drives so much of the spinning 1736 01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:15,599 Speaker 20: issues and so much of the lack of AI related 1737 01:29:15,600 --> 01:29:16,559 Speaker 20: innovation and healthcare. 1738 01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:20,919 Speaker 6: The issue was given Congress gave. 1739 01:29:20,880 --> 01:29:23,479 Speaker 20: The HHS the opportunity to write the rules, and they 1740 01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:24,760 Speaker 20: gave them some limits, and it. 1741 01:29:24,800 --> 01:29:26,400 Speaker 6: Said, you have to write the rules a certain way. 1742 01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:27,839 Speaker 6: And these rules are terrible. 1743 01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:32,680 Speaker 20: But in order to reform it, you can't just have 1744 01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,760 Speaker 20: the HHS rewrite the rules because of those limits put 1745 01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:36,840 Speaker 20: in place by Congress. If you actually wanted to fix 1746 01:29:36,920 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 20: this issue, you would have to very likely, unless you 1747 01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:41,639 Speaker 20: can get some Democrats to agree, and I really doubt 1748 01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:44,560 Speaker 20: you could, you would very likely have to suspend the filibuster, 1749 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:46,559 Speaker 20: which is what something that rule contrib be doing right now, 1750 01:29:47,680 --> 01:29:50,120 Speaker 20: and then go and get Congress to change it. So 1751 01:29:51,080 --> 01:29:53,160 Speaker 20: where i'd offer this advice to Trump, I would say, 1752 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:55,679 Speaker 20: push on the filibuster, keep pushing, pushing, pushing. 1753 01:29:55,880 --> 01:29:57,920 Speaker 6: You have to get them to change the thing, because 1754 01:29:57,960 --> 01:29:58,920 Speaker 6: you can't do it directly. 1755 01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:00,519 Speaker 17: But as you. 1756 01:30:00,439 --> 01:30:02,640 Speaker 20: Will be blamed for any sort of healthcare mishaps or 1757 01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:04,800 Speaker 20: just continuations of bad trends that we've had going on. 1758 01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,160 Speaker 1: That is the big tough question. 1759 01:30:06,200 --> 01:30:08,360 Speaker 15: We've talked about the filibuster a lot on this show, 1760 01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:10,320 Speaker 15: and because Trump wanted to get rid of it to 1761 01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:14,080 Speaker 15: end the shutdown, and we've generally said end the shutdown, 1762 01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:16,720 Speaker 15: but only or end the filibuster, but only if you 1763 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:20,680 Speaker 15: have a home run slate of legislation to pass. Otherwise 1764 01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:24,479 Speaker 15: you're just going to do some some lame thing and 1765 01:30:24,479 --> 01:30:26,639 Speaker 15: then fart around, and then Democrats will have no filibuster 1766 01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:28,880 Speaker 15: to do their agenda, which is a lot more clear 1767 01:30:28,920 --> 01:30:30,000 Speaker 15: cut on what they want. 1768 01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 14: Carrier too, by the way, and so there are two, 1769 01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 14: Like there's popular aspects of ACA, right, it's the the 1770 01:30:35,439 --> 01:30:39,920 Speaker 14: uninsured unensurable people, right that you couldn't have some very 1771 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:42,360 Speaker 14: expensive treatment that you need for the rest of your life. 1772 01:30:42,400 --> 01:30:45,400 Speaker 15: The pre existing conditions people like being on their parents 1773 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:46,160 Speaker 15: and then being on. 1774 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:46,840 Speaker 1: Your parents' issues. 1775 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,040 Speaker 14: Would would your recommendation, just from a political standpoint, put 1776 01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:52,519 Speaker 14: your political hat on, would you say, let's keep those 1777 01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:57,599 Speaker 14: things in place and fix these underlying I guess statutory issues. 1778 01:30:57,720 --> 01:30:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean you could. You you could instead of replacing 1779 01:30:59,600 --> 01:31:01,599 Speaker 1: them all care you pitch it as like, hey, these 1780 01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:02,960 Speaker 1: reforms would make it better. 1781 01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:05,080 Speaker 6: Yes, I absolutely would. 1782 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:07,800 Speaker 20: So the big thing is with respect to the pre 1783 01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:10,080 Speaker 20: existing condition requirement, it does add a lot of costs. 1784 01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:12,320 Speaker 20: I mean, it obviously does, because you have suddenly people 1785 01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:14,000 Speaker 20: who are high costs being covered and you're in the 1786 01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:15,479 Speaker 20: same pool as them and you got to cover them. 1787 01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:18,120 Speaker 20: So that's a big issue. But if you fix the 1788 01:31:18,160 --> 01:31:21,439 Speaker 20: medical loss ratio requirement and you allow healthcare provider or 1789 01:31:21,520 --> 01:31:24,800 Speaker 20: not sorry, if you allow health insurers to make better 1790 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:27,560 Speaker 20: use of their prior authorization departments, you can minimize the 1791 01:31:27,720 --> 01:31:30,360 Speaker 20: downside of those people because you can offer them more 1792 01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:31,160 Speaker 20: tailored care. 1793 01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:32,519 Speaker 6: You can offer them. 1794 01:31:32,800 --> 01:31:34,760 Speaker 20: You could say, hey, your doctor called for this, but 1795 01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:37,840 Speaker 20: we actually think there's a better option here. You can 1796 01:31:37,880 --> 01:31:40,120 Speaker 20: figure out what is more optimal to give them in 1797 01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:43,120 Speaker 20: terms of care and save a lot of that money 1798 01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:44,519 Speaker 20: that you would have wasted anyway. 1799 01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 6: But you're forced to suspended. So it doesn't matter at the moment. 1800 01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:50,360 Speaker 20: It becomes a bad thing in large part because there 1801 01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:54,200 Speaker 20: are no incentives to fix the issue from a technological perspectively. 1802 01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:57,679 Speaker 20: You can't go the technological route and minimize the issue 1803 01:31:57,760 --> 01:31:59,880 Speaker 20: the other way, which we totally could do if we 1804 01:32:00,040 --> 01:32:01,120 Speaker 20: fix this other issue. 1805 01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:03,599 Speaker 6: So I think keep that in place. It's fine because 1806 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:04,840 Speaker 6: it's so popular, no one. 1807 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:07,439 Speaker 20: Wants to touch it, and it like you really do 1808 01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:10,160 Speaker 20: still want these people to be covered somehow, Like it's 1809 01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:11,880 Speaker 20: a humane issue at the end of the day, you 1810 01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:14,479 Speaker 20: want them to be covered in some way that isn't just. 1811 01:32:14,520 --> 01:32:18,000 Speaker 15: Like So one last question, I'm thinking, so, you've mentioned 1812 01:32:18,040 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 15: it's statutory issues on the biggest things, But what is 1813 01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 15: the best thing you think the Trump administration can do 1814 01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:28,320 Speaker 15: right now just with its regulatory executive branch. Authority doesn't 1815 01:32:28,320 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 15: need Congress, which is its own big problem. 1816 01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:32,720 Speaker 1: What could they do tomorrow if they want it. 1817 01:32:32,800 --> 01:32:35,759 Speaker 20: Yeah, they could fix tons of the issues with CMS. 1818 01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:37,720 Speaker 20: So like that site neutrality thing I mentioned before, it 1819 01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:39,680 Speaker 20: is totally able to be fixed. The issue is the 1820 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:43,080 Speaker 20: enforcement there. They have that power to fix that issue 1821 01:32:43,080 --> 01:32:45,240 Speaker 20: and enforce it, and they've written up those rules and 1822 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:47,680 Speaker 20: they have changed those rules and they have not enforced it. 1823 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 6: That is the big issue of enforcement. 1824 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:52,720 Speaker 20: And there are tons of things like this, So they 1825 01:32:52,760 --> 01:32:55,320 Speaker 20: could get away with fixing a lot by just enforcing 1826 01:32:55,320 --> 01:32:57,360 Speaker 20: the rules and change. There are some things they can 1827 01:32:57,439 --> 01:33:00,439 Speaker 20: change too, so they could be adventurous. There are some 1828 01:33:00,520 --> 01:33:03,840 Speaker 20: untested legal theories here, like Section eight of four is 1829 01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:07,719 Speaker 20: the thing that allows you states to sign up to 1830 01:33:07,760 --> 01:33:11,320 Speaker 20: start importing drugs for their Medicare and Medicaid programs from 1831 01:33:11,400 --> 01:33:15,840 Speaker 20: Canada at Canadian prices. If they were to be a 1832 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:18,639 Speaker 20: little adventurous with this, they could expand that by changing 1833 01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:21,880 Speaker 20: two parts of the regulation so that states could import 1834 01:33:21,920 --> 01:33:24,400 Speaker 20: Canadian generics that don't yet have a generic equivalent in 1835 01:33:24,400 --> 01:33:29,720 Speaker 20: the US, thus lowering prescription drug prices a lot. It's 1836 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:31,800 Speaker 20: totally on the table to do a lot of little 1837 01:33:31,800 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 20: fixes that are in untested legal territory. If they want 1838 01:33:37,400 --> 01:33:40,360 Speaker 20: to try that, and they could meaningfully lower the cost 1839 01:33:40,360 --> 01:33:43,559 Speaker 20: of health care considerably beyond what they've done so far 1840 01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:44,400 Speaker 20: with the negotiations. 1841 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:46,559 Speaker 6: Because the negotiations they've actually make any kind. 1842 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:49,439 Speaker 20: Of duped on, like a lot of the Trump r 1843 01:33:49,560 --> 01:33:52,519 Speaker 20: X stuff that they've done, where they've tried to directly 1844 01:33:52,520 --> 01:33:55,120 Speaker 20: go to Pfizer and tell them give us most favored 1845 01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:55,719 Speaker 20: nation rates. 1846 01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:56,559 Speaker 6: That stuff doesn't. 1847 01:33:56,320 --> 01:34:00,160 Speaker 20: Really work to cut prices very much, unfortunately. I think 1848 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:01,680 Speaker 20: there's a lot of room there. But the issue is. 1849 01:34:02,120 --> 01:34:04,160 Speaker 1: It's sorry, sorry, we're running out of time. Should we go? 1850 01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:05,719 Speaker 1: Can we go over here? We'll go a few minutes, 1851 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:07,720 Speaker 1: go a few minutes over I just love having this 1852 01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:08,080 Speaker 1: guy on. 1853 01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:12,080 Speaker 14: All right, we'll be right back for stream radio. Gotta 1854 01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:14,000 Speaker 14: say goodbye Real America's voice. We'll see tomorrow.
