A day off 55 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: is not gonna make me better. It's got process. The 56 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: process has to work itself out. The reason is because 57 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: we went to Israel. I didn't sleep on the way there. 58 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: I left, I was up most of Wednesday night. I 59 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: landed ten o'clock in the morning Israel time. I worked 60 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: till two in the morning Israel time. That was up 61 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 1: at six am after two and a half hour sleep, 62 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: and I went a full day till midnight when I 63 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: got on the plane to go home. What midnight Saturday 64 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: morning Israel time? Landing in New York at five am 65 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: on New York Saturday time with very little sleep for 66 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: all those days, so I literally have I'm on the 67 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: gas tanks on empty. So I commit. I just happened 68 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: to mention to you, or you mentioned to me you 69 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: didn't like me.

It's great, Okay, 169 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: I've never by the way, I'm not infectious, am I? Doctor? 170 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: You still could be. Hey, let's make a negotiation. If 171 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: North Korea decides to shoot a missle can come in. 172 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: Otherwise I think we can. Yeah, hand off the news today. Sorry, doctor, 173 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: you have a bad line. You're breaking up on me. 174 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: Call Linda and tell her whatever medicine I want to take, 175 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 1: because I really have no idea. All right, Linda, Oh 176 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: you're welcome. Oh you know what do you want me 177 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: to bring you into? Honey, I'm gonna say on this 178 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: when I'm sick, and I say I'm sick, I'm under 179 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: the weather, not feeling well. You see me blow my 180 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: nose every thirty seconds and hacking up whatever you call 181 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: those things. I don't even know, you know, part of 182 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: my luck. Just do me a favor and just say 183 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: can I get you anything? And then don't argue with 184 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: me about whether I should be at work for an 185 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: hour and a half. We've been arguing about this. It 186 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 1: is I am going. I am not congress I am 187 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: not lazy. I am not incapable of playing hurt, and 188 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: this is hardly hurt. I can't stand athletes on on 189 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: Super Bowl Day or Stanley Cup day. Oh my back hurts. 190 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, suck it up, get up, get out there. 191 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,720 Speaker 1: We need you. That's the name of the game. So 192 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: that's how I feel about this audience. All right, So 193 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: I'm here, I'm on the air. We've got a great show. 194 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: We have Congressman Jim Jordan's and Congressman Mark Meadows, both 195 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: of the Freedom Caucus the healthcare bill. They've come to 196 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: an agreement there. Actually there was a meeting within the 197 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: last hour of House Republicans the latest update I had, 198 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: and they are trying to whip the votes now that 199 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: they have come up with the language the Freedom Caucus. 200 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 1: I would argue the study group in particular, those groups 201 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: and the Tuesday group are most responsible with coming up 202 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: with the language that looks like it's going to get 203 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: this thing, you know, over the top and get the 204 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: beginning and the repealing and the replacing of Obamacare. And 205 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: from what I've heard from Freedom Caucus friends of mine 206 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: as all saying the same thing, it's gonna lower the 207 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: cost of healthcare dramatically. It's it's gonna be part of 208 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,440 Speaker 1: a process, but ultimately it's gonna drive down premiums. Great 209 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:14,439 Speaker 1: competition open up avenues for for practices like Dr Umber, 210 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: who I used to like a lot in Wichita. Dr 211 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: Number literally has a practice where you pay fifty bucks 212 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: a month as an adult, you get unlimited care. You 213 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 1: get he's negotiated directly with pharmaceutical companies. You got a 214 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: ninety plus percent discount, and kids are ten bucks a month. 215 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: You get stitches and X rays for forty eight cents. 216 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: And he has just totally reinvented how to do healthcare. 217 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: And he's now been able to work with other doctors 218 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 1: and practices around the country. And when you add health 219 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: savings accounts and when you add catastrophic insurance, you know, 220 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: catastrophic insurance for anybody, and that means, if God forbid, 221 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: the accident comes that you you pray never happens, or 222 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: cancer comes, which you pray never happens, or you have 223 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: a heart attack which God forbid you ever have. Those 224 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: things are then covered and your monthly premium is probably 225 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 1: you can correlate that to whatever you're deductible is. You know, 226 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 1: the more in deductible you willing to pay, the less 227 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay for the catastrophic insurance. Then it becomes insurance. 228 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: You know, if God forbid, if you hit a car, 229 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 1: you all right, you have to buy that person a car. 230 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: That's what the insurance is for. If God forbids some 231 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,319 Speaker 1: of the serious. You know, we've gotten to a point 232 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: where everybody wants to stub their toe, run to the 233 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: doctor and say, okay, fix my toe, and I don't 234 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: want to pay a ten dollar co pay. But under Obamacare, 235 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: if those doctors are gone, those options are gone, those 236 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,719 Speaker 1: co ops are gone, you know, because literally it was 237 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: written by the insurance companies. It's an absolute disgrace. Anyway, 238 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: we'll get to that, so we'll make it progress on that. 239 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: I want to go over and it's great specificity in 240 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: detail what the president's economic plan is. That the thing 241 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: that you need to know and like the most about 242 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: this is the president is keeping his promises. He's keeping 243 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: his word. In other words, income taxes seven brackets to 244 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:06,319 Speaker 1: three standard deduction is gonna doubles per singles and twelve 245 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: six for for married couples. I mean, so you're doubling 246 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 1: the standard deduction, which is a really good thing. I 247 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: think it's actually seven six, six thousand fifty for singles. 248 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: It repeals the death tax. That's a double taxation. You 249 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: work hard, you pay federal income tax, state income tax, 250 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: you know, every tax imaginable your whole life. Then you 251 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: die and then incomes the federal government. They think they 252 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:36,239 Speaker 1: could take another bite of the apple that is legalized 253 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: stealing by your government. How about you decide what you 254 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: Maybe you want to build a museum in your name, 255 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: Maybe you want to do something charitable. Maybe you want 256 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: to leave it to your grandchildren if they're not even 257 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: born yet. Maybe you want to give it to your kids. 258 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: It's none of the government's damn business. After you've already 259 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 1: worked and paid your taxes. It's ridiculous anyway, it does 260 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,959 Speaker 1: eliminate deductions except for the mortgage interest deduction, charitable donation 261 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: and retirement savings. Those are the ones that impact people 262 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: the most. High tax states like New York, New Jersey, 263 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: Connecticut will be hardest hit by the removal of the 264 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: deduction for state and local taxes. Great I get whacked 265 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: again anyway. It repeals the alternative minimum tax provide. Maybe 266 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: that will put pressure on states to grow up and 267 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: be like Texas and Florida. Just a thought. It also 268 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 1: provides unspecified tax relief for families. Oh and by the way, 269 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 1: it you don't pay a penny. There's a mater of fact. 270 00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: Fifty plus percent of wage journals in America won't pay 271 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: one red cent in taxes. Not one repeals the three 272 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 1: point eight percent Obamacare tax on high earners. It cuts 273 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: the corporate tax rate, This is the biggest part of 274 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: It goes from one of the highest in the industrialized 275 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: world to one of the lowest thirty five to fift percent. 276 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: It allows the pass through businesses, which include most small enterprises, 277 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 1: to pay at the lower corporate rate instead of the 278 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: top personal tax rate of nearly thirty of thirty nine 279 00:13:55,240 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: point six. I mean, if you're looking for how to 280 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,960 Speaker 1: change the economy. If you don't. If you want to 281 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: change the economy, you want to get people out of poverty, 282 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: you offer food stamps and you want to get people 283 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: working again in America. This this is how you do it. 284 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: You know this is now a conspiracy. I see. I 285 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: can't believe. I'm not going to spend more than the 286 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: three minutes in this segment on this, but I see 287 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: what you're doing here. You know, Claudia California will give 288 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: you fifteen seconds. What is your vote? Fifteen seconds? First 289 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: time caller Linda's right, I'm right. This cannot be broken. 290 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: Think of it like wheel cow. Get your ass out 291 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: of there, go home, because, boy, I'm gonna tell you 292 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: right now, this stuff will come back and bite you 293 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: on the butt and you'll be down for longer than 294 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: your best. Beth Lakes, I don't get I hadn't slept 295 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: for four days. I have full on energy here today. 296 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: If anything, I'm more piste off than usual because of 297 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: her Tracy. Indiana, you're fifteen seconds to lecture. We go ahead, 298 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: go home. You're spreading germs are gonna have to seem gay. 299 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: There's no germs. I'm in a room by myself. They're 300 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: in another room. I haven't even gone in there today. 301 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: They don't have to come near me. I promise you.

It's it's about 306 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: a little bit of pride and work ethic. I think 307 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: that a lot of people, um, I don't necessarily know 308 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: have again, you have a mission, you have something to 309 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: do today. Just because you don't feel you know the 310 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: beast doesn't mean you don't come to work. You get 311 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: your job done. You get your job done. You you 312 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: roll up your sleeves, you do your guy thing. Listen, 313 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: this is what we do. We're hunters and gatherers. That 314 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: probably will alienate women out there that are you're a 315 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: hunter and gathering. What do you think your friend Flintstone 316 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: and Barney Rubble and bam bam. Well, it's my job 317 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: to bring home the bacon so we can cook the food. 318 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 1: And I feel an obligation not only to my family 319 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: but to all of you. And this is not that 320 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: big a deal. And somebody's making it a bigger deal. 321 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: But he snuck through, and I bet you made him 322 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: lie to get on and say that he was against me. Uh, 323 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: let's say hi to who's next. David is in Big 324 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: four Montana? What's going on, sir?

And uh, 327 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm like you. I think if I get sick, I 328 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: suck it up and I go. But you know what 329 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: I've learned over the years. I'm about ten years older 330 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: than you. My wife will handcuff me to the door 331 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: so I don't go out what I'm sick, because she 332 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: says every day that I work, i'm sick. I take 333 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: two days off to get better. So I just want 334 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: you to take care of my history. Is not that 335 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: I've never I've never taken two days off to get better. Well, 336 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. I I literally take my hour, 337 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: my lunch hour an hour later so I can hear 338 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: your first hour years every day, and I'm gonna make 339 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: it's like the greatest compliment. I swear if I have 340 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: to drag myself in here tomorrow because of what you 341 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: just said to me, that you change your lunch hour. 342 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: There's no greater compliment than any host can have. I'm 343 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: getting in here, and when we come back, I'm now 344 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: going to focus on what I planned to do on 345 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: the program, which is news and information and solutions to 346 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: our country's problems, especially healthcare and the President's tax plan, 347 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: which will help all of us. Welcome now till the 348 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: top of the hour nine point one, Sean. Look, this 349 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: is why I've been pushing so hard on the health 350 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: care bill, because if the healthcare bill gets over the 351 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: finish line, and at this point, I've had numerous, numerous, 352 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: numerous conversations with Freedom Caucus members. Louie Gomer supports the 353 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: new bill. Assuming the language is right. You always gotta 354 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: put that copy out because there are a bunch of lines, 355 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: swine and dirt bags in Washington. But as long as 356 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: the language is is right, then that bill is gonna pass. 357 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: Now the reason you needed to pass You need to 358 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: pass healthcare, even though they announced yesterday Stephen Nuchan and 359 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: con the President's um tax plan, which is gonna get 360 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: the economy role because you save a trillion dollars and 361 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: this this is major, major money. Here's what's gonna work. 362 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: For the economy. And here's why you know they can't 363 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: get this done soon enough for me, because you get 364 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,760 Speaker 1: the trillion dollars in saving savings in the initial years. 365 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: When you start a tax cut, it's not instantaneous. Oh wow, 366 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: we just cut taxes. Look at the growth tomorrow. Well, 367 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: it takes a while for the law to go into effect. 368 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: Number two, it took Reagan three years to start the 369 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 1: real economic engine of his tax cut proposal. Look look 370 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 1: at look at the Reagan analogy example. In the course 371 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,160 Speaker 1: of his presidency, we went from top marginal rates from 372 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: seventy to percent. We literally, in that eight year period 373 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 1: of time, we doubled the amount of revenues that came 374 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: into the federal government. They had quarters of growth as 375 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: high as eight percent, and so many in the six 376 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,959 Speaker 1: and seven and five percent range that it unleashed the 377 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: potential of America's economy. Now, what is the potential of 378 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: America's economy today? What we got labor? We got ninety 379 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: five million Americans out of the labor force, the lowest 380 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: labor participation rate since the seventies. I mean that that 381 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: is huge in and of itself. So we eat that 382 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: that is a natural resource. We've got untapped natural talent 383 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: of great Americans. We've got another fifty million Americans in 384 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: poverty and fifty million of foot stamps. Uh, if we 385 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 1: can get them back in the labor force and stop 386 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: giving the money. But they even if they're not paying 387 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 1: any federal income taxes, we're saving money because we're not 388 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 1: taking care of people like we were. So that's gonna 389 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: be a big cost. Now. The President has already lifted 390 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:48,239 Speaker 1: the burden of regulation, especially on the energy sector and 391 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,679 Speaker 1: the coal sector, and and he's allowing fracking, and he 392 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: went forward today and mentioned drilling, and we're gonna increase 393 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: domestic drilling and offshore drilling in the country. You know, 394 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: these are all great things because every enter g job. 395 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: Energy is the lifeblood of our economy. And if we 396 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: can get our own energy become energy independent four to 397 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: eight years, well, in the process of becoming energy independent, 398 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: you're going to create all of those jobs in the 399 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: fracking industry, the drilling industry, oil industry, the gas natural 400 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: gas industry, etcetera. And then all the pipelines in a 401 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:25,120 Speaker 1: associated you know, uh, jobs that that will come with it. 402 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: I mean, if they start doing serious drilling off shore. Well, 403 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,800 Speaker 1: that's going to increase the restaurant business. That's gonna increase 404 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: department store traffic. That's gonna increase, you know, the local 405 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: economy wherever that happens to be. And then housing starts 406 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: are gonna go up, and and so on and so 407 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: far and forth. You know, it's not trickled down, it's 408 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: just common sense. You need the government to get out 409 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 1: of the way. And one of the things that government 410 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: has been so burdensome on is America's ability to become 411 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: energy independent. That's just one that's just one huge piece 412 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: of the puzzle right there. And the President now is 413 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: unleashing America's own potential. And I'm not even talking about 414 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: national security benefits. Why is it we have more energy, 415 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: the lifeblood of our economy, under our feet, and we're 416 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: still importing oil from countries like Saudi Arabia that hates 417 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: our guts and other countries in the Middle East that 418 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 1: make us more prone and more likely to get involved 419 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: in foreign conflicts. So we ensure the free flow of 420 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: oil at a moderate market price so that the engine 421 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: of our economy cannot be destroyed abroad. It's key. It 422 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: plays a big part in our Middle Eastern policy, except 423 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: with the exception, of course, of defending our closest friend 424 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: and ally, Israel. But energy independence here might give us 425 00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: and take pressure off us here at home in terms 426 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 1: of involving ourselves at different times and whatever mess is 427 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: created in the Middle East, which seems to be never ending. 428 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: Then you add to that with the president's doing here, 429 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: he's doubling the standard deduction. A married couple with an 430 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: income of twenty four dollars or less pay no federal 431 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: income tax. Right now, fifty percent of wage earners in 432 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 1: America pay zero income tax nothing. The evil top one 433 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 1: percent pay nearly of the taxes. The top ten pay, 434 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: you know, of the taxes. It's not a matter of 435 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: the rich not paying their fair share. Now there's other issues. 436 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: For example, I think one of the most important factors 437 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 1: in all of this is we're going to incentivize business 438 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: to build their manufacturing centers, their factories here in America. 439 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 1: I mean, it's really really simple. You know, if if 440 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: you dropped the top marginal rates um from thirty five percent, 441 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: which is the top in the industrialized world, of fiftent 442 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: and you allow pass through businesses in other words, businesses 443 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: that are coming through America, but they're really their home 444 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: port is here. There are somewhere else. Well, it's still 445 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: bringing money in creating jobs in America. So, including many 446 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: small enterprises, small businesses here in America, which provides the 447 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: majority of jobs, you allow them to pay the lower 448 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: corporate rate instead of the top personal rate at thirty 449 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: nine point six. Well, what does that mean? That means 450 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: you know the reason that President Trump was able to 451 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 1: to get on the phone and appeal to Ford and Chrysler, 452 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: FIAD and Carrier and GM and what's that, Ali, Baba, 453 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: guy Steve Ma wants to create a million jobs. Why 454 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: has he been able to appeal to these corporations to 455 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: lock in here? Is because A he said he's getting 456 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: rid of regulation, burdensome regulation, and he's doing it and 457 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 1: it has done it. And b he's saying, in corporations, 458 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: we're creating a business friendly environment. So there's no longer 459 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: a need for you to search for cheaper labor and 460 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: deal with burdensome regulation because we're getting rid of all 461 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: of that here. And we've got nine million Americans sitting 462 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,399 Speaker 1: on the side lines dying to get back into the 463 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:05,439 Speaker 1: labor force. We have a lot of highly talented people. 464 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: And on top of that you add the ten percent 465 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: repatriation rate. In other words, multinational corporations that includes Apple, Microsoft, 466 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 1: all these other big guys that seem so generous when 467 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: they get to donate billions to charity. Great, but they 468 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 1: also park money overseas. I'm not saying who many of 469 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: these corporations, no specifics they parked money overseas. Why because 470 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: they don't have a thirty corporate tax? And so you know, 471 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: why did Ireland grow throughout those years? Why was Ireland 472 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: hated by a lot of other European countries Because they 473 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: dropped their top marginal rates, the corporate rates to some 474 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 1: of the lowest in the industrialized world, and they experienced 475 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: rapid growth for their economy. It also repeals the alternative 476 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: minimum tax. They're gonna put this plan is going to 477 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 1: provide unspecified tax relief for families with child and dependent 478 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 1: care services. And they're trying to take care of people 479 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: that are in a very tough spot and so the 480 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: government doesn't have to take care of them in the end. Now, 481 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: it also repeals the death tax. Some of you say, wow, 482 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: that's outrageous. They are rich get to keep their money. 483 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, so hang on a second. If you 484 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: live in New York, this is the situation you live in. 485 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 1: You pay a federal tax top marginal rate. If you 486 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: if you're making decent money, good decent money. You're not 487 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: even rich in New York. If you make a hundred 488 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year, trust me and see the top 489 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: marginal rate. It is federally, so you pay in federal taxes. 490 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: You pay a ten percent state income tax. You work 491 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: for the city. I think it's what three percent city 492 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: income tax? So now we're fifty. Then you pay like 493 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 1: I can tell you, I'm in the second highest property 494 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 1: taxed county in the country in Nassau County. Then you 495 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 1: pay out. I mean, if I told you how much 496 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:57,119 Speaker 1: I pay in property that it's insane, it's legalized stealing. Well, 497 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: then why do you stay in there, Hannity, Come to Texas, 498 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: come to North Carol Line, to come to South Carolina, 499 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: come to Florida. I'd love to. The problem is this 500 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 1: is where my job is, so I have to stay. 501 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 1: So now you're up to Then you pay your sales taxes, 502 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,160 Speaker 1: then you pay your fight at taxes. Probably never get 503 00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 1: any Social Security money that means tested by the time 504 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm eligible. And the reality is this is that you're 505 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: paying sixty two cents of every dollar you make in 506 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: New York. And then if you're like me, and you know, 507 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: you're kind of risk averse when it comes to the 508 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: issue of the I r s because they want to 509 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: they have a bull's eye on my back, just like 510 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: the leftist all propaganda destroy Trump media as a bull's 511 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: eye on my back, and every liberal fascist in the 512 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: country wants my voice silenced. So I kind of end 513 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: up just paying my fair share of paying my taxes 514 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: for the very purpose of just getting these people away 515 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: from me and just just not taking those chances. I 516 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: should probably refile. I'm so annoyed at the latest audit anyway. 517 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: So sixty two cents out every dollar, Okay, Now I 518 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 1: die well, if I die tomorrow, the federal government takes 519 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: more of the little bit I saved after they took 520 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: the bite government that is, So I pay sixty two 521 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: cents of every dollar. Then I die. Whatever I have left, 522 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna take another here's the other catcher. New York 523 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: State has a a state tax. There's another ten percent, 524 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 1: so I pay sixty two cents on every dollar in taxes, state, local, 525 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: federal taxes, property taxes, FICA taxes. And then I die 526 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: and then they come in and take out of all 527 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: that I might have managed to save, they'll take another half. 528 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: I don't even know what to say. How does anybody 529 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 1: rationalize that this is not limited government? This is womb 530 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: to the tomb, cradle to grave utopia that doesn't incentivize 531 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 1: people to invest, to build businesses, to take risks that 532 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: provide their fellow Americans opportunity. I never got a job 533 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,760 Speaker 1: in my life from a poor person, not a penny, 534 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: not one cent. Anyway, they'll they'll go from seven brackets 535 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: to three brackets, the proposed brackets of the president based 536 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: on income federal income tax and it's not good. It's 537 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: just as annoying. Okay, I got a new phone. Who 538 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: this new phone? Okay? Anyway, So that's where we are, 539 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,639 Speaker 1: and there's other issues we're gonna get to today, and 540 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: we'll get the latest on healthcare with Jim Jordan's and 541 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: we'll check in with Mark Meadows of the Freedom Caucus. 542 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: By the way, and Coulter may send me a note 543 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: last night. I may wanted me to make clear, and 544 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: I knew this, but and did not cancel Berkeley. Berkeley 545 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: canceled her and the Young Americans Foundation, she told me, acquiesced, 546 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: at which point there was nothing she could do. But 547 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: this is not the first time. This is now well, 548 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: if you go to Milo in his case, I mean, 549 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: he wasn't allowed to speak either. This is now the 550 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: new America that we live in. Here, we're at a 551 00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: turning point and freedom of speech is in jeopardy in 552 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: this country by liberal fascist This is not a game anymore. 553 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: This is trying to take down the Fox News channel, 554 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 1: conservative talk radio, every university. What starts in universities like 555 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: Berkeley spreads like cancer around the country. You know, first 556 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: it was Yolo Jinopolis, his event nearly became a riot. 557 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: Now it's in Coulter, and you've got radical snowflakes monitoring 558 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 1: every talk radio show hoping they can take out whatever 559 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: hosts through some type type of boycott. Is what they 560 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: said is something they don't agree with, you know, it's 561 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: it's absolute madness what's going on here. You know, the 562 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: very people on the left that claimed to be so 563 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: open minded and so compassionate and so loving and so 564 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: in lusive or anything, but so supportive of free speech. 565 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 1: These are they're just their words. They don't mean this. 566 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 1: And this is what I've been saying to everybody all week. 567 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 1: There's liberal fascism and they're carrying out a well funded 568 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: All right, do you think somebody's gonna do it for free? 569 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: Monitor me, Rush, Laura Back and every other local host 570 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: around the country or are they getting paid?

I think they're 572 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: gonna monitor seven the Fox News channel, hoping that they 573 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 1: get that one sentence, that one phrase, that one comment 574 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: that they can distort or you can't even apologize for 575 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: its God forbid, you have a slip of the tongue, 576 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: you say something stupid. You can't say I didn't mean 577 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: it that way, it came out wrong. Does that not 578 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: happen to all of us in life? Isn't that why 579 00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 1: Congress revises and extends their remarks so often? Hey, James, 580 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: can you bring me that in places? If you get 581 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: a second? Thank you? Um? You know, when are we 582 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 1: going to live up to this whole concept? This, this 583 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 1: this principle that we really do believe in freedom of speech? 584 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: All right? Thank you, sweet baby, I got it. Um. 585 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: When are we gonna live up to that standard? Where 586 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: is the left watching this liberal fascism unfold before their 587 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: eyes and loving it, not speaking out against that. They're 588 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: loving it. I can find hardly a liberal that's saying, stop, 589 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: stop the boycotts, stop the the shutdown of speech on 590 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: college campuses, stop trying to take down the Fox News channel. 591 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: There's none because they're all phony and they're all hypocrites, 592 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: and they want that that is their vision obviously of America, 593 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: or they would be speaking out for eight years. You 594 00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: guys had a plan, and you kept saying and promising repeal, 595 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: replaced Obamacare. And I guess what people want to know 596 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: is when are these things going to get done. We're 597 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 1: exactly on the timeline that we designed for ourselves. Obamacare 598 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: is coming next, Our bill is coming in March. First, 599 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: it's regulatory reform because we have this window of time 600 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 1: to cancel bad Obama regulations. Then we're doing Obamacare. After 601 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: we're done with Obamacare, then we're doing our budget. And 602 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: our budget is what the second budget, which will be 603 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 1: tax reform. So we're doing two budgets in one year, 604 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 1: which has never been done before. This is faster than 605 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: it's ever been done before. When I heard repair, my 606 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,560 Speaker 1: head nearly explode. That's not the plan. The plan is 607 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: to repeal and replace this law. Like we said, we 608 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: ran on a plan to repeal and replace it. Tom 609 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: Price helped write that plan. He is now Donald Trump's 610 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: Secretary of It is a consensus plan that's now being 611 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: scored by the CBO. Correct, you're saying to the American 612 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: people and conservatives that are impatient, including myself, you agree 613 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: with every item I mentioned, even extreme vetting. Yeah, we 614 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: passed that bill a year ago. Now, how I know 615 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: you now agree with build in the wall? Yes? Are 616 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: you telling the American people vetting, refugees, building the wall, repeal, replaced, 617 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: tax reform, all of this is going to be done 618 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: in two days inside the two hundred day window. Is 619 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: the regulatory reforms we talked about, it's the repeal and 620 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 1: replace Obamacare, It's the budget, it's the rebuilding of our military, 621 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: it's tax reform. Those are the things that we're working on. 622 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: Any infrastructure, those are the things we're working on in 623 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: this two dunts in the equation because that's in their age. Well, 624 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: we we see that as part of regulatory reform. But 625 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: in two hundred days, that's you think that is our plan? Yeah, 626 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: and if and if there's any slip, and we'll finish 627 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 1: it in the fall and get it done before the 628 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: end of the year. So if I come back in 629 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: two hundred days, you're gonna you're gonna go, well, I 630 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: made a promise. We've got it. Well, because I think 631 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: this is so here's what I'm saying. We've we've met 632 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 1: this out for two hundred days. We have a plan 633 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: to do that. We're on schedule. But if if anything slips, 634 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: because it'll be a Supreme Court justice, yeah, or or 635 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: a filibuster on a cabinet nominee, that might slip us. 636 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 1: But we're making sure that we do all of this. Okay, 637 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: let's go to the budget, which is such a big 638 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: issue the president seven rackets to three corporate rate. I 639 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: know you prefer twenty because that scores scores. Yeah, I 640 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,439 Speaker 1: have to get what we can with the with the number, 641 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: and you support repatriation multinational corporations. That will be huge 642 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: for that's a lot of money that can come back 643 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: into the economy, about three trillion dollars. Here's my headline 644 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: of this interview that you're in pretty much full agreement 645 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 1: with with what Donald Trump ran on. And number two, 646 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: in two hundred days from the legislative side, you are 647 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 1: going to be implementing every aspect of that agenda that 648 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: we talked about. And just as a big headline, we 649 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: have and we have cushion in our schedule if if 650 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: anything slips, because it's really because the Senate issues, we 651 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: still have time to accommodate all of this stuff in twenties, 652 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: even consitions. I have cushions built in the schedule to 653 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: make sure this all gets done in twenty because I 654 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: believe in case something happens and go sideways on the Senate, 655 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that will stimulate the economy, get people 656 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 1: back to work, and get the economy movement again, which 657 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 1: I think we need what we're hired to do. All right, 658 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 1: you see two days all right? That was the Speaker 659 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: of the House, my interview when I went down to 660 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: Washington at the beginning of the year, and the things 661 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 1: that he's promising. Healthcare did not go as planned. Unfortunately, 662 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 1: they hid the healthcare bill. Nobody had a chance to 663 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: read it. There was no coalition built among the verying 664 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: factions within the House of Representatives, the Republican Caucus, and 665 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: you had the Freedom Caucus on one side, the Tuesday 666 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: Group on another side, the Study Group on another side, 667 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: Moderates on another side, and then you had the Saturday 668 00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: let's get waste to drinking group in the Republican Caucus 669 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 1: on on who knows what side. I'm kidding about that group. 670 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: But anyway, from all indications, as I read on the 671 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 1: air yesterday, the Freedom Caucus now has worked hard day 672 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: and night. I know this for a fact because I 673 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 1: probably have spoken with Freedom Caucus members and their chairman 674 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: Mark Meadows about a thousand times in the interim from 675 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 1: the Friday in which that bill failed, and Jim Jordan's 676 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: who is the former chairman of the Freedom Caucus, and uh, 677 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: welcome both both of you back to the program. I 678 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: know how hard all of you and your members have worked. 679 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: Congressman Medals will start with you, considering you're the ranking 680 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 1: Freedom Caucus remember at this moment, but remember Jim had 681 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: that job first. Um, and it's it's been a war. 682 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: It's it's been NonStop. How many hours a day do 683 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: you think you've been working on this bill? Well, we've 684 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 1: been working, as you know, Shaun around the clock. And 685 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: and actually Jim Jordan's uh not only is he uh 686 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: a mentor, but he's really one of the best leaders 687 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: in all of Congress on a number of issues. And so, uh, 688 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: you know, I can tell you the hours we've spent 689 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 1: since the bill was pulled and even before that, but 690 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: particularly since then, has been no less than seventy to 691 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,640 Speaker 1: eighty hours a week trying to make sure that we 692 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: find that sweet spot to bring everybody together. And now 693 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: I think we're, you know, just days away from a vote. 694 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,400 Speaker 1: So I'm I'm optimistic that, uh, while the bill is 695 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: not perfect, it does fulfill one promise. It brings down 696 00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 1: premiums for hard working Americans, and that's what it's all about. 697 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: Out Jim Jordan, tell us about the process from your end, 698 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 1: I know that it was it was touch and go 699 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: there for a while, very hard. You guys were basically 700 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 1: in the media blamed for as being the group that 701 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: was responsible. Meanwhile, you're only one part of this coalition. 702 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure that would be frustrating to all of you. Yeah, 703 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 1: but look, look, Sean, because we engaged and because Mark 704 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:21,479 Speaker 1: Worke's tail off and our whole team did. We made 705 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: a bill that wasn't where it needed to be. We 706 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 1: made it better. Now, let's be honest. It's not full repeal. 707 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 1: So they're still work to do. But because we engaged, 708 00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: because we held out, uh, the Obamacare tax increases are 709 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: going right away. They're not kept for a year or 710 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,640 Speaker 1: two longer than than than as the original draft had them. 711 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 1: The work requirement for able bodied people in the Medicaid 712 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 1: expansion program is in there because Conservatives engaged and fraught 713 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: for things. And finally, this option for stay to get 714 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 1: the waiver and and and get a waiver from those 715 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:51,359 Speaker 1: key Obamacare regulations that drive up premiums to get away 716 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: from that so premiums come down, as Mark said, for 717 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: working class families. Those three things happened because we engage 718 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 1: in this debate. We think this is the best bill 719 00:37:58,440 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: that can get out of the House. We think it's 720 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 1: a better to building was introduced. And but we understand 721 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:04,960 Speaker 1: we got more work to do to fully review, explain, 722 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: and flu people. We told the American people we were 723 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: going to accomplish. You know, it gets complicated and most 724 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,760 Speaker 1: people don't understand this. And and one of the apparent 725 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: obstacles in this whole process is the fact that it 726 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: had to work within the Senate rules of reconciliation. And 727 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 1: when I get into reconciliation and the bird rule and culture, 728 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 1: everybody's eyes gloss over because at the end of the day, 729 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: the only thing people want to know is are my 730 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: premiums going down? Um? And am I gonna get better 731 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: and more consistent healthcare? And you're saying that this bill 732 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: is a big step in that direction. If they get 733 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: the waiver it states get you got the waiver, right, 734 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna may states We're gonna go for that option 735 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 1: and actually make it happen. If they do that, coupled 736 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,680 Speaker 1: with the other things that that are currently in the bill, 737 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: we do believe premiums will come down, and not just 738 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:49,720 Speaker 1: what Mark meadis and Jim Jordan's and members of Congress 739 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 1: believe the healthcare policy experts believe that will happen. Then 740 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: you can then you can say, Okay, California, you may 741 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: not want to do this, your statement not do, but 742 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 1: Kentucky will, and people can start to see, Wow, premium 743 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: and deductibles are coming down in Kentucky, even though they're 744 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: not in California. Maybe maybe then there'll be in this 745 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: this more push to get across state lines, get that 746 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 1: legislation done, and some of the other things we no 747 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: need to happen to further bring down the cost of 748 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 1: healthcare and the cost of insurance premiums. Yeah, Congress of Meadows, Um, 749 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 1: these were not easy negotiations and the waiver ended up 750 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: being the breakthrough. Can you explain the difference? Well, I 751 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 1: think for for many of us sean, Uh, we believe 752 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 1: that the Obamacare mandates, and there's twelve of them. The 753 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 1: original bill that was rolled out had two of them repealed. 754 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 1: We believed that there was two other critical Obamacare rules 755 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 1: that had to be repealed, and uh, the original recommendation 756 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: we had was a full repeal. As you know, the 757 00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: moderates just felt like that was a bridge too far. 758 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 1: So this waiver actually gets it two additional Obamacare rules 759 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: that have the greatest impact on premiums, and so by 760 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: allowing states to wave out of them, it will not 761 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 1: only protect pre existing conditions, which was the President's promise 762 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,839 Speaker 1: and our promise, but it will drive premiums down. There's 763 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 1: another aspect. We've we've helped create a high risk pool, 764 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: so that's anybody that has a pre existing condition can 765 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: go into that so that their premiums stay down. So UH, 766 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 1: it was it was a compromise. Certainly, it is one 767 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 1: that UH as Jim was saying, Well, we haven't finished 768 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: the work. We've got to continue to work with the Senate. 769 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: I know I talked to Senator Thun yesterday about working 770 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: on UH tax credits and making sure that our people, 771 00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: uh the seniors have have adequate coverage, affordable coverage. But 772 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: right now, based on the numbers UH, a fifty year 773 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,640 Speaker 1: old is going to be able to buy insurance as 774 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: cheap as a thirty year old can on Obamacare. And 775 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 1: and that's significant when you really look at lowering premiums. 776 00:40:55,480 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: Let me ask you both of this. I've been very 777 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,040 Speaker 1: critical of leadership for this reason because you know, for 778 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:03,959 Speaker 1: nearly eight years now, or probably about eight years, Republicans said, 779 00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:06,319 Speaker 1: give us the House. You got the House in all right, 780 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: give us the Senate, will repeal and replace Obamacare. You 781 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:11,480 Speaker 1: got that, give us the House, the Senate in the 782 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 1: White House, and will repeal and replace Obamacare. And you 783 00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: look at the approval ratings, and the President's approval rating 784 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: is quite high because everything he can possibly do on 785 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 1: his own, he's doing, and he's reminding Americans that he's 786 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: checking off his promises. I really give him a lot 787 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: of credit for what he's done, including Neil Gorsuch, and 788 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: we worked down from there. He laid out his economic 789 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: plan that was exactly what he said he would do 790 00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:35,839 Speaker 1: during the campaign. But yet after eight years of having 791 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 1: an opportunity to build consensus, they didn't show anybody the bill. 792 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 1: You guys didn't see the bill beforehand, right right, We did, 793 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 1: all right that They didn't build consensus among the verying factions, 794 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,760 Speaker 1: the coalitions. No coalition was built, No whipping took place. 795 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: Nobody saw the bill. It was unloaded on people. The 796 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: President immediately wrapped his arms around it because he thought 797 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 1: it was a consensus bill. He has to do the 798 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: heavy lifting on the bill, and meanwhile, it's not what 799 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 1: people almost. And then you guys have to come in 800 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: and clean up the mess and the reasons. Remember, we 801 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: thought we were going to start with where we were 802 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 1: last year, except one voted for the same bill we 803 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:16,080 Speaker 1: put on that didn't fully repeal obamacarey replacement bill. Yeah, right, 804 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:17,959 Speaker 1: So we thought we're gonna start there. When that wasn't 805 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,719 Speaker 1: the case, and you and you have a process like 806 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: you just described. That's why you get to the end 807 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: and you have a piece of legislation and only seventeen 808 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:26,840 Speaker 1: percent of the country support. But we said, look, we 809 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: still want to do everything we can to keep our 810 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:30,799 Speaker 1: word with the American people. So Mark went to work, 811 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: We went to work over this, this this break, and 812 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 1: we're able to say, at least, let's give states the 813 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,800 Speaker 1: option to do what we should have been doing, I think, 814 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,720 Speaker 1: which is a repeal of those regulations that drive up costs. 815 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: So that's where we're at now. We think, as we 816 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 1: said before, it's it's pretty darn good and it's a 817 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: good start, but it's not it's not my problem, Jim 818 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 1: and Congressman Medals, I'll ask you. My problem is we 819 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: can't go through this pain every time of every one 820 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: of the agenda kids, every one of the President's agenda 821 00:42:56,880 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: items cannot go through this. Now, is there is there 822 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 1: anything real quickly? And then we'll come back. Is there 823 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: anything Congressman Meadows that is that gives you any indication 824 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: they're gonna act differently with for example, the tax bill. Well, 825 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 1: we we spoke to White House officials last night and 826 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: made that point of compelling point that it has to 827 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: be different. We can embarrass the president believing that there's 828 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: consensus when there's not. But the other part of that, 829 00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: I do believe that, uh, we we have a real opportunity. 830 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:29,720 Speaker 1: Jim and I just came from meeting with the Speaker 831 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 1: where we said, you know, what we've got to do 832 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 1: is iron out our differences right now on tax And 833 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: what did he says? I'll tell you what, tell us 834 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,240 Speaker 1: what he said when we get back. We'll talk about 835 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 1: the tax reform bill when we come back. Also, at 836 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: the bottom of the hour, we're actually gonna check in 837 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 1: with Senator Tom Cotton. I was in Israel last week 838 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,880 Speaker 1: and believe it or not, three hundred million taxpayer dollars 839 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: a year spent by the Palestinian authority to pay terrorists 840 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: and their families our money paying and it's a matter 841 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 1: of law, and we're still giving the money. And there's 842 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: an act put in place which is for tailor force. 843 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 1: We'll explain that at the bottom of the hour. But 844 00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 1: well and all right, so we're talking about how wrong 845 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: the health care process. When Congress Memado, as you said, 846 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: you met with Speaker of the House, Ryan is he 847 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: committed to not creating another fiasco rollout like the healthcare 848 00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 1: repeal replaced bill. Well, he is. He basically told Jim 849 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 1: and I that the process he sees where it had 850 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,319 Speaker 1: the pitfalls this particular time, it needs to be more 851 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 1: than just listening sessions. It really needs to be where 852 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 1: we get the legislative text, we go back and forth, 853 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: we actually read the bills. I know that that, uh 854 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 1: shouldn't be a shock to your listeners that members should 855 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: read the bills, but a lot of them don't. And 856 00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 1: so what what he said is is that we would 857 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,439 Speaker 1: actually get there, work it back and forth, and then 858 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 1: before going out and taking it out to the American people, 859 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: at least have a consensus or very close to a consensus. Uh. 860 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 1: The real, I guess, the real caution that I have 861 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: there is is that we've heard that kind of thing before, 862 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,400 Speaker 1: and it's important for the President that we get it 863 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 1: right this time. And I'm gonna take the Speaker as 864 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 1: his word and and trust that on tax reform will 865 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 1: roll it out with a little bit Look in your opinion, um, 866 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan's like what the President ran on and what 867 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:16,480 Speaker 1: he outlined through Steve Manuchin and Cohen yesterday. If that's 868 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 1: a great great uh principles there. But everything Mark just 869 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: talked about, and it might be nice he had real hearings, 870 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: like for this healthcare bill, maybe it'd been nice to 871 00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,240 Speaker 1: be at hospitals, come in, doctors, come in, reagor families, 872 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 1: maybe independent insurance ages. They maybe have real real Americans 873 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: come and testify. There was no there was no testimony 874 00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 1: taken in the hearings. There were just straight from markup 875 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:35,880 Speaker 1: and no amendments were actually accepted in the committee. So 876 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:38,480 Speaker 1: you you you build as much consistent as you can, 877 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: then you have actual, real hearings, let the American people 878 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: weigh in, watch their government in action list do the 879 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: same thing. On the tax I'll take the Democrats arguments, Oh, 880 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 1: they're gonna say, oh, you're cutting taxes for the rich. No, 881 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: we're cutting taxes, letting people, letting families keep more of 882 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 1: their money, and and creating a tax code that's conducive 883 00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: to economic growth so we can have more than this 884 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,600 Speaker 1: one point two percent annual growth break that we had 885 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,320 Speaker 1: under Obama. For goodness, say so, I welcome those debates. 886 00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 1: We shouldn't shy away from those debates. Let's have real hearings, 887 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,239 Speaker 1: real debates, and let's have that happen, and then we 888 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: will get a better product that will be better for 889 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: the American people who elected us to come here and 890 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 1: do these very things. Well, you either of you upset 891 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,320 Speaker 1: in the fight this week over the cr that funding 892 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,200 Speaker 1: for the border wall that the President said, all right, 893 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: we can put that off. Are you confident that that's 894 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,320 Speaker 1: still gonna be funded? Well, I'm confident that the President 895 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 1: uh is committed to building the wall. But yes, I mean, 896 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:29,840 Speaker 1: am I upset? Sure? I'm upset at this particular point. 897 00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: It's the promise that the President made, It's one that 898 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,439 Speaker 1: I joined him in. We've got to fund the wall. 899 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 1: If we can't find Republicans have fought this week, I 900 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 1: beg your pardon. Should the Republicans have fought this week? Well? 901 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 1: I think they should have. I mean, when you really 902 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:47,239 Speaker 1: look at this particular issue, it's you know, you've got 903 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 1: Democrats holding it up. Now, no one's in favor of 904 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 1: the government shut down, but at the point you have 905 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:54,919 Speaker 1: to stand for something. And this is the president who 906 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 1: always stands for something. He's taken the political risk to 907 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: say things that perhaps are not political correct. Building the 908 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: wall is critically important not only to my voters, but 909 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: the Gems and and all of those who understand national security. 910 00:47:09,680 --> 00:47:12,919 Speaker 1: So we've got it done and hopefully we will all right. Guys, 911 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 1: thank you both. I know how hard you both work. 912 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: I know for a fact how hard you all worked. 913 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: And I would say, without the Freedom Caucus, this health 914 00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: care bill would have had no opportunity. We'll take a 915 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,720 Speaker 1: quick break, we'll come back, we'll continue on the other side. 916 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 1: Why is the American government, your tax dollars three million 917 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: dollars a year going to fund terrorists and their families 918 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: when they kill Americans and Israelis. Believe it or not, 919 00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,280 Speaker 1: that's happening. Senator Tom Cotton ways, the next Taylor Force 920 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,719 Speaker 1: was an outstanding young American, distinguished record of service at 921 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 1: the military academy and then overseas. He was what every 922 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 1: parent could hope their son could be. I want to 923 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 1: make sure that the record that he put together is 924 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: remembered by Americans and is a positive force for change 925 00:47:59,320 --> 00:48:02,239 Speaker 1: in the world. The taxpayer dollars are no longer going 926 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 1: to subsidize the murder of American citizens or Israeli citizens, 927 00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: and that the Palestinian people are no longer subsidized with 928 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 1: American money in a leadership that encourages this kind of 929 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: brutal murder with graduated payments for the more and worse 930 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: mayhem at these terrorist wreck So the Force family has 931 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 1: my commitment, has all of our commitments. We're gonna do 932 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:34,320 Speaker 1: everything in our power to make this bill into a 933 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: law to commemorate Taylor's memory and to ensure it is 934 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:44,360 Speaker 1: sacrifice is not forgotten and that it has a lasting, 935 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: positive legacy in the world. Alright, twenty four now till 936 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: the top of the our very emotional Senator Tom Cotton 937 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,360 Speaker 1: of Arkansas now he serves on the Armed Services and 938 00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:59,359 Speaker 1: Intelligence Committees. He served in Iraq himself the un first 939 00:48:59,360 --> 00:49:03,239 Speaker 1: Airborne and in Afghanistan with the Provincial Reconstruction Team and 940 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 1: also joining US as Stewart Force Now. Stewart's son, Taylor, 941 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 1: was a former US Army officer West Point graduate. He 942 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 1: was part of Vanderbilt University their tour group that was 943 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: visiting Israel. I. Talked about this with Prime Minister Netan Yahoo. 944 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: Last week. He was brutally stabbed and killed by a 945 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:26,040 Speaker 1: Palestinian terrorist. The Palestine and is Palestinian Authority leader Mahmud 946 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: A Bass and their FATA faction praised the terrorists as 947 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: a heroic martyr. By the way, Donald Trump is meeting 948 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: with this guy on May three, and the Palestinian Authority 949 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,200 Speaker 1: has never condemned the attack a terrorist attack. Now, what 950 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,120 Speaker 1: I got into it the Prime Minister of Israel is 951 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,240 Speaker 1: the fact that the US government gives about seven hundred 952 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 1: million dollars a year to the Palestinian Authority, and of 953 00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:53,040 Speaker 1: that seven million, they spend about three hundred million dollars 954 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,839 Speaker 1: according to the Palestinian Authorities online budget. They shell out 955 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: the same amount or that amount of money three hundred 956 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 1: million dollars a year to the families of jihadis. They 957 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: build in their towns squares literally so called works of 958 00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 1: arts for the people that kill either Israelis or Americans. Now, 959 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 1: the Tailor Force Act would cut off funding to the 960 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 1: Palestinian Authority if they continue this policy. It is now 961 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 1: the stated law paying money monetary rewards to terrorists and 962 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 1: their surviving family members. Anyway, Senator Tom Cotton is back 963 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,319 Speaker 1: with us from Arkansas. UH Stuart Forces with us.

I spoke at Lank with the Prime 969 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: Minister of Israel about this very issue in light of 970 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,760 Speaker 1: the the leader of the Palestinian Authority of Mahmudu bas 971 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 1: Is meeting with President Trump on May three, um and 972 00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: the Prime Minister of Israel was adamant that if there's 973 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 1: any chance of peace, one, there's got to be a 974 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,840 Speaker 1: recognition of israel Is right to exist. Number two, stop 975 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:06,280 Speaker 1: paying monetary rewards to terrorists and they're surviving family members. 976 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 1: Doesn't that have to be a fundamental, basic starting point, 977 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:12,759 Speaker 1: I would I would think so, Sean. I can't imagine 978 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 1: negotiating with anybody about anything knowing that they have law 979 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,840 Speaker 1: laws that provide for killing your citizens. I cannot. I 980 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: cannot believe that you could start with that in effect. 981 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:30,719 Speaker 1: I think it's just when all the facts came out 982 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 1: to us after after we lost Taylor, and I heard 983 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 1: and read what was going on, I was appalled that 984 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 1: that is going on in this day and age, the 985 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:44,399 Speaker 1: contract killing with an open, open ended contract. I could 986 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:48,319 Speaker 1: not I could not understand it, and it is it's 987 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: just but you know why, because it's not comprehensible, because 988 00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 1: there's no sense behind this that American money is going 989 00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:58,839 Speaker 1: to a group that kills Americans and Israelis and they're 990 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:02,040 Speaker 1: rewarding the terror send their families. Because you know, that 991 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: is insanity by definition, and it's got to end. By 992 00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 1: the way. I'm pretty certain, I know pretty it's President 993 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 1: Trump pretty well. I think once he gets made aware 994 00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,719 Speaker 1: of the magnitude of this, I think he's gonna say 995 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: no more money until you stopped us. I think that 996 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 1: it would be a first good step. And um um 997 00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: um everyone I've had the operating to opportunity to speak 998 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,879 Speaker 1: with I I agree that they are more and more 999 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: aware of how ludicrous the whole situation is and how 1000 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 1: you can't go forward with that in place. It's it's 1001 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: I hate that we're that My wife and I and 1002 00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 1: daughter have have spoken to so many people that have 1003 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 1: been so concerned. We never in our lives imagine they 1004 00:52:47,560 --> 00:52:51,240 Speaker 1: didn't like anything would this happen to anyone in our family, 1005 00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 1: But uh, we agree it has it has to stop. 1006 00:52:56,320 --> 00:53:00,000 Speaker 1: It just cannot continue. And it's not it's not a part, 1007 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 1: just an issue. I help people, and whether they're Democrat, 1008 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:10,680 Speaker 1: at liberal, independent, Republican, just the situation. It's not it's 1009 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 1: not a party your belief. It's just not not right. 1010 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 1: It's not right. Hey, Sean, this is Tom Cotton. If 1011 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 1: they started to add um, it's good to be on 1012 00:53:19,560 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 1: with you as always, but it's just an especial honor 1013 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,719 Speaker 1: to be on you with Stewart. Mr Force, It's good 1014 00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:27,719 Speaker 1: to hear your voice saying Senator Cotton, I appreciate what 1015 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,719 Speaker 1: you're doing for this so much. I can't tell you yes. Um. 1016 00:53:31,760 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 1: And and Sean, your your instinct is right because I've 1017 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 1: seen this repeatedly now both in Congress UH and with 1018 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 1: our Kansans. UH. Decent people cannot imagine that the facts 1019 00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: at hand. They cannot imagine that we give the Palestinian 1020 00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:50,000 Speaker 1: authority hundreds of millions of dollars and the Palestinian authority 1021 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 1: gives what's essentially bonus payments to the families of terrorists 1022 00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: who commit the kind of painous crime that happened to 1023 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 1: Taylor Force. When you bring that to and sometimes you 1024 00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:02,680 Speaker 1: have to actually show them the law, show them the 1025 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:06,040 Speaker 1: Palestinian laws, show them the budgetary accounts, which are freely 1026 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 1: available in the open source domain, to get them to 1027 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: realize that this isn't fact true, that this is not 1028 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,239 Speaker 1: a myth, UM and I foreign a confident once the 1029 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 1: President understands and appreciates what's happening with your tax dollars, 1030 00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: that we can put an end to this, UH, and 1031 00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: that we can pass the Tailor Force Act through the 1032 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 1: Congress for his signature. Sean. I'm so happy that you 1033 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: raise this with Prime Minister net Yahoo, and I'm so 1034 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 1: grateful that Prime Minister net Yahoo spoke forcefully about the 1035 00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,279 Speaker 1: need to end Did you see us talking about this? 1036 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,640 Speaker 1: Did you see the quotes of a boss that he 1037 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 1: he uses when he's at home versus what I know 1038 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:43,120 Speaker 1: he'll probably lie to and tell the President. Sean, it's 1039 00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: so important that Prime Minister net Yahoo weighed in on 1040 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,400 Speaker 1: this matter, that we have to stop what are essentially 1041 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 1: bounty payments to the families of dead terrorists. UM and 1042 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: his support removes one of the very last objections that 1043 00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 1: anyone in the United States could have because of the 1044 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 1: Prime Minister supports this legislation and this effort UH to 1045 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 1: try to stop US taxpayer dollars from going to the 1046 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:11,360 Speaker 1: families of dead Palestinian terrorists. I can't imagine any Senator 1047 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: Congressmend voting against our legislation. So I'm encouraging the President 1048 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 1: to raise this matter with President of Boss during their 1049 00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: meeting next week and say very simply to them, Look, 1050 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 1: if you don't stop this practice, you will no longer 1051 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,239 Speaker 1: receive this money. We're not asking them for some high 1052 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: in the sky, um, you know, lying, lying, laying down 1053 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,480 Speaker 1: with the Lamb scenario. We're not asking them try to 1054 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 1: eliminate all anti Semitic feelings from their society. We're asking 1055 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 1: them to do something within their control. Stop taking our 1056 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: money and giving it to the families of dead terrorists. 1057 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,240 Speaker 1: If you want to keep our money. Have you gotten 1058 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 1: any Democratic support, Senator, A lot of Democrats have been supportive, 1059 00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:54,319 Speaker 1: uh um, but quietly. One reason why we couldn't pass 1060 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: this legislation in previous years is that the Obama administration 1061 00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,600 Speaker 1: plainly did not support it, did not want it coming 1062 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:02,520 Speaker 1: to the war UM, and Democratic senators did not want 1063 00:56:02,520 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 1: to vote on it. But with President Trump in the 1064 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 1: White House, who I believe will support the legislation, UM, 1065 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,239 Speaker 1: with the endorsement of Prime Minister NT Yahoo, I think 1066 00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:13,240 Speaker 1: it's a horse of a different color, and I suspect 1067 00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 1: that we will be able to pass this. What about 1068 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer? I you haven't talked to Chuck Schumer about it. 1069 00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:19,439 Speaker 1: I haven't personally talking about it, but you know Senator 1070 00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 1: Schumer likes to prevent his UH caucus from having to 1071 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:27,160 Speaker 1: take votes on things that might be tough for them. Um. Again, 1072 00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 1: it's hard for me to imagine anybody saying this is tough. 1073 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 1: But ultimately Mitch McConnell that schedules the floor and Senator 1074 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:35,359 Speaker 1: McConnell can bring this to the floor with the president's support. Now, 1075 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,680 Speaker 1: with the endorsement of the Prime Minister as well, I 1076 00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,320 Speaker 1: think you'd see a large and bipartisan vote if we 1077 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,479 Speaker 1: have a vote on the floor. UM. Let me ask 1078 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 1: you this, UM, do do they have confirmed themselves that 1079 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:51,600 Speaker 1: this is actual law under the Palestinian authority? Correct? They 1080 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 1: must pay the families of terrorists and terrorists that survived. 1081 00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 1: It's in black and white, it's Palestinian authority in law 1082 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 1: and Um. The more heinous the attack and crime, the 1083 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 1: bloodier it is, the more money the families were safe. 1084 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 1: It is a straight incentive for terrorists to kill innocent 1085 00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:13,359 Speaker 1: civilians like Taylor Force to try to make sure their 1086 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: family is cared for. Yeah, Mr Mr Force, Stewart Forest, 1087 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: tell us about your son Taylor. Oh gosh, your program 1088 00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: is not long enough Sean for me to tell you 1089 00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 1: all about Taylor. Believe it were. We were just very 1090 00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 1: fortunate that we have we have two good kids. And 1091 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 1: he at an early age decided that UH West Point 1092 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,880 Speaker 1: would be a goal. He went to UH, the Mexico 1093 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:41,760 Speaker 1: Military Institute in Roswell, where people like Roger Staubach had 1094 00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:46,320 Speaker 1: had gone to school and in their efforts to obtain 1095 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 1: appointments to the various service academies. And it was a 1096 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: good academic and pre military background, and he enjoyed well, 1097 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 1: I guess you'd have to say mostly endured his his 1098 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,560 Speaker 1: four years of West Point, because it's quite a grueling 1099 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:03,080 Speaker 1: regiment that they go through. But um is my father. 1100 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 1: His grandfather had had graduated in forty seven, and so 1101 00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 1: he had an ideal and an idea of what to expect, 1102 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 1: and he was excited. And when he graduated, he went 1103 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: to Field Artillery and to serve the two tiers tours, 1104 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 1: a year in Iraq and nine months in Afghanistan, and uh, 1105 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 1: you know he I would want to mention one thing. 1106 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: I know, people have a tendency to use the word 1107 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:33,439 Speaker 1: hero and Taylor was very a very modest and humble person, 1108 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: even though he achieved a lot. But I want he 1109 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: always cringed when somebody would call him a hero. Well, 1110 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 1: he felt the real heroes were those that were wounded 1111 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 1: or gave their lives. Yeah, but he was willing to 1112 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: risk his so he fits in that category. It's the 1113 00:58:48,760 --> 00:58:50,440 Speaker 1: same thing to me in any way, it's not the 1114 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,640 Speaker 1: same thing. I mean, anybody that's willing to risk it, 1115 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 1: that is a level of heroism and courage. He viewed 1116 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 1: himself as a patriot more than more than a o'shean, 1117 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: but it was um it was something he felt very 1118 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,960 Speaker 1: strongly about being there for his his men. And it's 1119 00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 1: honestly wasn't about him. And it's just a tragedy that 1120 00:59:11,720 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 1: situations like this happen. It takes so many, so many 1121 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 1: promising young people, not only Americans but but Israelis and 1122 00:59:20,160 --> 00:59:23,160 Speaker 1: other visitors to Israel in a in a situation like this, 1123 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:28,000 Speaker 1: it's just it's just it's a shame and we're incredulous 1124 00:59:28,040 --> 00:59:30,280 Speaker 1: about the whole. Yeah.

Is is that health care 1133 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 1: bill in the House going to work through the Senate 1134 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 1: and get done? You think shot Over the last few weeks, 1135 00:59:57,400 --> 00:59:59,440 Speaker 1: I've thought about to hazard death is about what's going 1136 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 1: to happen. I've floor of the House. But whatever happens, 1137 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that we pass legislation that 1138 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 1: repeals Obamacare and provides all Americans with affordable and quality insurance, 1139 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 1: no exceptions and no excuses. Do you like the changes 1140 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: that the Freedom Call Becers was able to get. I 1141 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 1: haven't seen the text, but from the reports I've saying, 1142 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:18,320 Speaker 1: and that my conversations with some of my friends there, 1143 01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:21,000 Speaker 1: they're moving in the right direction. Obviously the Senate will 1144 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 1: we'll take up any bill that comes here and put 1145 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 1: our own stamp on it. But the ultimate goal that 1146 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 1: we share with those in the House is making sure 1147 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: that insurance is affordable for everyone, no matter how you 1148 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,640 Speaker 1: get your insurance. You know, Mr Force, thank you so 1149 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: much for being with us.

I know how hard that must be 1152 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 1: for you every day. This insanity of paying money to 1153 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 1: the Palestinian authority so they can shell it out to 1154 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 1: the families and Jihadis and their survivors is insanity. And 1155 01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna make sure in the next interview with 1156 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 1: President Trump that I asked him about this. Thank you 1157 01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:55,800 Speaker 1: so much for being with us. Eight hundred nine for one, Shaun, 1158 01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 1: as I told free telephone number, you want to be 1159 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 1: a part of the program, All right, quick, freak right back, 1160 01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 1: News round Up, Information overload, and your call straight ahead. 1161 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 1: Stay right here for our final news round up and 1162 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:11,440 Speaker 1: information overload. Hilarious and kind of sad that, um, you know, 1163 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 1: I was in the waiting room in the West Wing 1164 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:17,320 Speaker 1: for a half hour before I walked in there and 1165 01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 1: probably saw a hundred people, including reporters, so it just 1166 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,600 Speaker 1: kind of you know, nothing happened until a week later, 1167 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,120 Speaker 1: and then people were furious that I got in there, 1168 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: and you know, actually I was in Washington for something 1169 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 1: different UM and went in there. And I will say 1170 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 1: that since UH trump spokesperson said it, I talked to 1171 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 1: him about a project. So I did talk to him 1172 01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: about a project, but we talked about other stuff too. 1173 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:51,760 Speaker 1: And what I find unbelievable is the bullying in traditional 1174 01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:55,880 Speaker 1: media that that I think there are some traditional media 1175 01:01:55,960 --> 01:02:00,920 Speaker 1: outlets that are getting ruined by this illustration and it 1176 01:02:01,240 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 1: ruined by their own deeds. That you know, there are 1177 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:10,520 Speaker 1: certain UH networks and newspapers that are very clear on 1178 01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:15,000 Speaker 1: who they are and what they feel. And that's fine. 1179 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:17,360 Speaker 1: I mean, if you if you put yourself out as 1180 01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:21,400 Speaker 1: you know somebody who supports Trump or like MSNBC is 1181 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:23,360 Speaker 1: against Trump, at least you get it. You know what 1182 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:27,240 Speaker 1: you're getting. But when you pretend like your objective but 1183 01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 1: you're not, and you are angry and you are you 1184 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 1: know you you are trying to kill UM and bully 1185 01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 1: I think that is killing And I don't think they 1186 01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: know it yet, but I think some of the trusted 1187 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:44,440 Speaker 1: names and news are not trusted anymore because of this. 1188 01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 1: And you know what, I think it's so preposterous that 1189 01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,480 Speaker 1: you know, Kanye West went to see Trump, he got trashed. 1190 01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 1: Steve Harvey went to see Trump, he got trashed. You know, 1191 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,640 Speaker 1: they went after me for seeing Trump. So I guess 1192 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:00,920 Speaker 1: the solution is nobody should see him. It should be 1193 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: a boycott. That is so stupid. I've given college speeches 1194 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:08,120 Speaker 1: for years now, and it was bad during Bush Um, 1195 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 1: but and then there was nothing during Obama. I think 1196 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,400 Speaker 1: because college leftists didn't know what their chance should be. 1197 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 1: They needed a chant. Like Bush lied, kids died and 1198 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 1: they didn't have a chance for us. So Obama years 1199 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 1: where those were the easiest thing thing ever um and 1200 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 1: whoa has it come back now? But I mean, I 1201 01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 1: think what's going on with Berkeley when you have it, 1202 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,680 Speaker 1: shows how radical the universities are generally. I mean, what 1203 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:33,520 Speaker 1: you're talking about, I agree with, Yes, they want to 1204 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,560 Speaker 1: destroy and and squelch conservative speech, but there is a 1205 01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 1: separate issue with the university's right now. When you have 1206 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Howard um Um, Bill maher Joy, 1207 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: Behar and so on and so forth, When they're all saying, oh, 1208 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:50,959 Speaker 1: get over yourselves, Berkeley, we have a First Amendment. People 1209 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 1: have fought and died for the right to free speech 1210 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,400 Speaker 1: of the college Republicans. Really, in this case they're a 1211 01:03:56,480 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 1: student group. I'm not just you know, some homeless person 1212 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,720 Speaker 1: wandering off into the square. And but but I'd be 1213 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 1: allowed to speak them and do um. They are really 1214 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 1: outside the mainstream. They are publicly funded. Forget that this 1215 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 1: is where the free speech movements started, the amount of 1216 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 1: money they get from the state and the federal government. 1217 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 1: But all of the people who should have been standing 1218 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 1: up for the First Amendment here all ran away with 1219 01:04:21,040 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 1: their tails between their legs. Ye. Ron, it's very clear 1220 01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:11,120 Speaker 1: that police are inside. They have been told not to 1221 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:14,160 Speaker 1: engage at this point, they're standing back. We see this 1222 01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 1: in demonstrations in the the area before. The feeling is 1223 01:05:17,320 --> 01:05:20,840 Speaker 1: that the property damage, whatever may j is less is 1224 01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:24,720 Speaker 1: is less costly than anybody getting hurt. And so the 1225 01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 1: police repeatedly in in situations like to take the tactic 1226 01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:31,960 Speaker 1: of standing back and hoping. It's hard to defuse what 1227 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 1: happens here. Amazed have you seen? But this is We've 1228 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:37,160 Speaker 1: seen this before in the bear and the police are 1229 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 1: behind the last You feel they're not getting party the demonstrators, 1230 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,160 Speaker 1: they're not trying to stop the at least at this section. 1231 01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:47,400 Speaker 1: All right. That was and Coulter and Harvey Levin, who 1232 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 1: is from TMZ, has also become a friend of mine. 1233 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 1: Harvey is a very very interesting guy, and I don't 1234 01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 1: even know where he stands politically, but he's one of 1235 01:05:56,080 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 1: the few people in Hollywood that just took a very 1236 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,280 Speaker 1: strong stand for freedom of spee. Each we see what's 1237 01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,479 Speaker 1: happening with with my Milo and he wanted to speak 1238 01:06:04,520 --> 01:06:07,320 Speaker 1: out in in Berkeley, the home of the free speech movement, 1239 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 1: and Coulter was supposed to give this speech today and 1240 01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:13,400 Speaker 1: look what happened. I mean, one reason or another, they 1241 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 1: have to stop. There total chaos. In the case of 1242 01:06:15,800 --> 01:06:19,200 Speaker 1: Milo Ianopolis his event, it almost became a riot for 1243 01:06:19,320 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 1: crying out loud. And you know here it is again 1244 01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:25,919 Speaker 1: the left threatening and Coulter. It's what I've been calling 1245 01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 1: liberal fascism. Let's let's let's boycott Rush Limbaugh. Let's boycott 1246 01:06:30,680 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 1: Dr Laura, Let's boycott Glenn Beck. Let's make outrageous allegations 1247 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:37,880 Speaker 1: from two thousand and three or four about Sean Hannity 1248 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:42,280 Speaker 1: two days after Bill O'Reilly is fired. Um and and 1249 01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 1: the media will run with the cheap headline and not 1250 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:49,360 Speaker 1: even do a basic rudimentary Google search to see whether 1251 01:06:49,480 --> 01:06:51,920 Speaker 1: or not this woman has a history of lying about 1252 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 1: me and smearing me for years with the most outrageous claims. Anyway, 1253 01:06:57,040 --> 01:06:59,760 Speaker 1: news round up information overload. Rick Unger's with us and 1254 01:07:00,000 --> 01:07:02,400 Speaker 1: as a senior political contributor, I have no idea how 1255 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 1: or why. A Forbes dot com and the co host 1256 01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:07,840 Speaker 1: of The steal An Unger Show, Jonathan Gillham, hosted The 1257 01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:10,640 Speaker 1: Experts Navy c O, former FBI agent and federal air 1258 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:13,760 Speaker 1: marshal Uh, this is your party? Where? Where is where? 1259 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:17,400 Speaker 1: A liberal? Free speech advocates? Here? Because I doubt liberals 1260 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 1: of monitoring your show and taping every minute of your 1261 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:22,120 Speaker 1: show the way they tape every minute of this show. 1262 01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:25,640 Speaker 1: Mr Unger, sir, yeah, you're not gonna see much of 1263 01:07:25,680 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 1: a defense for me for those who are doing that, I, 1264 01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:31,880 Speaker 1: in this instance have been agreeing with and culture all along. 1265 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:35,320 Speaker 1: It's such a waste. You know. I experienced this when 1266 01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 1: I was a Kain in college, which is a hundred 1267 01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 1: years ago. We had the same thing going on only 1268 01:07:40,320 --> 01:07:43,440 Speaker 1: was reversed. You couldn't get liberal speakers on campus, and 1269 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 1: I thought that was outrageous, and I think it's outrageous now. 1270 01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,760 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what the politics are. We have free 1271 01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 1: speech universities or places where you could have learned. All right, 1272 01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 1: how let me let me put you on hold because 1273 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 1: you have a cheap liberal sports illustrated football phone you've 1274 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 1: got for three years ago with your sub cryption. Get 1275 01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:05,040 Speaker 1: an Obama phone. Yeah, no, I think the Obama phone 1276 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:08,680 Speaker 1: was expensive. It was an iPhone on Obama phone. Jonathan Gillen, 1277 01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 1: let's get your take. Well, listen, I think you're absolutely right. 1278 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 1: And one thing I enjoy having Rick being on here 1279 01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 1: with Rick and the banter back forth, is because I think, Sean, 1280 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 1: there's becoming a distinction between effective thinkers and the far left, fascist, 1281 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 1: communist types of Rick Unger. You know, he has liberal views, 1282 01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 1: but he's an effective thinker, and you can reason with Rick. 1283 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,519 Speaker 1: Rick's not against the Constitution or America. These people they 1284 01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:38,080 Speaker 1: hate America, they hate the Constitution, they hate the First 1285 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 1: Amendment as it applies to everyone. And I think, really, 1286 01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:44,720 Speaker 1: I think it's time for the president to kick the 1287 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 1: press out of the White house. I would rather him 1288 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:50,440 Speaker 1: go out or put people on a list, just civilians 1289 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,719 Speaker 1: to be able to come in there and ask questions 1290 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: during the press briefing with Sean Spicer and then let 1291 01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,719 Speaker 1: the press just get their information either from those people 1292 01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: or continue to wise they are, because right now they're 1293 01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:07,040 Speaker 1: in our house and they're as far as I can see, 1294 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:09,680 Speaker 1: the majority of these people are fascist, communists, are just 1295 01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 1: outright liars so they can get uh advertising. I mean, 1296 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:15,840 Speaker 1: we're talking to rick On. Ricker is a friend of ours, 1297 01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,040 Speaker 1: but he is really liberal. He is friends with all 1298 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:22,920 Speaker 1: of these people, and I don't even know rick You 1299 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:25,519 Speaker 1: say you don't defend them. Where is your movement? Because 1300 01:09:25,560 --> 01:09:29,479 Speaker 1: your movement is silent, Your movement is nonexistent. Did I 1301 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,080 Speaker 1: hear you say I have one of those whole football phones. 1302 01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,240 Speaker 1: I love those phones. Look, I mean, well, you have 1303 01:09:34,320 --> 01:09:36,760 Speaker 1: a sports illustrated football phone from back in the day, 1304 01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 1: So I mean there. I have spoken to a lot 1305 01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:46,599 Speaker 1: of people who are progressive, who are liberal, and they agree, 1306 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:49,719 Speaker 1: and this is ridiculous. Freedom of speech is freedom of speech. 1307 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,439 Speaker 1: To get a good education is the reason to go 1308 01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: to college. So you can hear points of you from 1309 01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: all sides. Decide for yourself who you agree with and 1310 01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:00,400 Speaker 1: do you disagree with? Okay, but this is your side. 1311 01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 1: That's not allowing it your science. Have you ever debated 1312 01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:08,840 Speaker 1: and culter only one on wine over a bunch of drinks? Never? 1313 01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,320 Speaker 1: You know, I wanted to talk about a fun event. 1314 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,960 Speaker 1: What was the Christopher Hitchens I remember? I think it 1315 01:10:15,040 --> 01:10:19,400 Speaker 1: was at a a David Horowitz, you know, Renaissance weekend 1316 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:23,320 Speaker 1: event years ago, and I was watching Ann and Christopher Hitches. 1317 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 1: They both smoked at the time, and they're smoking cigarettes 1318 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:29,799 Speaker 1: to drinking, and everybody was around them and they're throwing 1319 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,840 Speaker 1: one wise ass comment back and forth to each other. 1320 01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: It was highly entertaining. But see, we all agreed. That's 1321 01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:38,760 Speaker 1: the way it should be. You don't have to hate 1322 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:42,080 Speaker 1: people because they disagree with you. My god, imagine how 1323 01:10:42,160 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 1: boring this world would be if everybody agreed on everything. Yeah, 1324 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:49,560 Speaker 1: let me ask you, um, Jonathan, I mean, why do 1325 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:51,880 Speaker 1: you think this ends? Do you think finally there's gonna 1326 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 1: be a backlash and we finally hit a tipping point? 1327 01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:56,360 Speaker 1: Like I've even said on the air many times. And 1328 01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:58,960 Speaker 1: I hate the guy. I I can't stand Bill Mark. 1329 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:01,760 Speaker 1: He's everything that I don't like in people, but I 1330 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 1: love I think he's good for America in this sense. 1331 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,040 Speaker 1: Is he survives saying anything he wants. I just want 1332 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:10,679 Speaker 1: some of that to rub off on conservatives just once, 1333 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, I think I think Sean birth off. These 1334 01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:16,680 Speaker 1: these people that we're talking about that are trying to 1335 01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 1: stifle the freedom of speech and that are getting in 1336 01:11:19,240 --> 01:11:21,800 Speaker 1: the way of good political discourse. There are a lot 1337 01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:26,040 Speaker 1: smaller of a group, I think than what people realize. 1338 01:11:26,120 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 1: When I say a smaller of a group. They they 1339 01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:30,680 Speaker 1: have some very powerful people in Washington, d see some 1340 01:11:30,840 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 1: very powerful people in the media in Hollywood. But when 1341 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,640 Speaker 1: we look at these Antifa people and the people at 1342 01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:40,559 Speaker 1: Berkeley that are protesting, that's a much smaller group, uh 1343 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 1: than than we let on. It's just that the conservatives 1344 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,719 Speaker 1: don't stand up to these people because we're typically working 1345 01:11:46,760 --> 01:11:48,920 Speaker 1: and we're not out to and not just conservatives but 1346 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:52,479 Speaker 1: hard working liberals like Rick Hunger and I think that 1347 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:56,080 Speaker 1: it's going to get to a point where hopefully the 1348 01:11:56,200 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: people unify. I was talking to a group of people 1349 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,760 Speaker 1: David Webb last night, UH and UM out in New 1350 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:08,000 Speaker 1: Jersey at a GOP group, and you know, unity is 1351 01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:11,000 Speaker 1: the is the biggest thing we're not. We don't practice unity. 1352 01:12:11,280 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 1: And the more unified we become, the more we're gonna 1353 01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:16,599 Speaker 1: be able to stand up to these people when they 1354 01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 1: do stuff like this. You know, I gotta break I. 1355 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:22,080 Speaker 1: I even liked both of you, and I'd never silence 1356 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:25,160 Speaker 1: Rick Hunger's voice. I I can make up allegations right 1357 01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,320 Speaker 1: now will probably probably be all over the internet in 1358 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:31,240 Speaker 1: thirty seconds, Sean Hannity accuses Rick Hunger of something outrageous 1359 01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 1: and by the way, most people would believe it. Rick, 1360 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:36,519 Speaker 1: Just in case you wanted to know, uh, even if 1361 01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:39,600 Speaker 1: it's false, one Shawn Tolfree telephone number. You want to 1362 01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 1: be a part of the program. You are ready to 1363 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:45,560 Speaker 1: get out of the media spin room to come to 1364 01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:51,479 Speaker 1: the right place is the Sean Hannity Show. You know, 1365 01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 1: if if the votes held on Saturday, certainly the votes 1366 01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:57,040 Speaker 1: will be there. But I can tell you that as 1367 01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,240 Speaker 1: late as last night and again this morning, some those 1368 01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:04,439 Speaker 1: undecided members of Congress, primarily on the Republican side, that's 1369 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:07,479 Speaker 1: all we're counting on at this point, are so close 1370 01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:10,040 Speaker 1: to yes that I'm very optimistic that whether the vote 1371 01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 1: is is tomorrow or Saturday or next week, that the 1372 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:18,280 Speaker 1: votes will be there to actually pass this to Senate, 1373 01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:21,240 Speaker 1: make sure that it becomes better. It's not necessarily a 1374 01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:23,960 Speaker 1: more conservative bill, but it is a bill that lowers 1375 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,160 Speaker 1: premiums for the American people, allows us to hopefully get 1376 01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:31,879 Speaker 1: onto tax reform uh in a very uh quick fashion 1377 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,760 Speaker 1: in the coming day. All right, as we continue with 1378 01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 1: Rick Hunger and of course our good friend Jonathan Gillham, guys, 1379 01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 1: let me ask you, so Congress looks like they're now 1380 01:13:39,439 --> 01:13:42,439 Speaker 1: going to get a healthcare replacement bill, Freedom Caucus on board, 1381 01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,160 Speaker 1: whipping the votes as we speak. Uh, this has got 1382 01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:49,160 Speaker 1: to break your liberal weeping heart. But I would think 1383 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,600 Speaker 1: that Rick Onnger, you would realize and admit now that 1384 01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:53,680 Speaker 1: we never got to keep our doctors, our plans, and 1385 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:56,840 Speaker 1: we didn't save a family a year either. And it 1386 01:13:56,920 --> 01:14:00,519 Speaker 1: was sold on one big lie, wasn't it. Well? There 1387 01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:02,960 Speaker 1: there were certainly lives told. I won't say it was 1388 01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,760 Speaker 1: sold on one big lie. And there are improvements that 1389 01:14:05,920 --> 01:14:08,960 Speaker 1: need to be made. It's not breaking my heart because hey, 1390 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 1: it's not going to get through the House. They may 1391 01:14:11,320 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 1: be whipping, but they're not getting enough in the moderate Republicans. 1392 01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 1: And even if it does get through the House. It 1393 01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:20,120 Speaker 1: doesn't get through the Senate. People who are aware of 1394 01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:22,879 Speaker 1: what this bill is realize is this is just a failout. 1395 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:25,439 Speaker 1: Congress is just saying we can't figure out what to 1396 01:14:25,520 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 1: do with it. Say, you know what, We'll let the 1397 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:31,200 Speaker 1: nasty politics fall on the states. Good luck governors. Well no, 1398 01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:34,040 Speaker 1: but but that's such a good point because they can 1399 01:14:34,120 --> 01:14:35,920 Speaker 1: take their waiver and they can do what they want. 1400 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 1: And they can they can literally literally specialize or focus 1401 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:43,040 Speaker 1: on the special needs of the people in their state 1402 01:14:43,160 --> 01:14:47,559 Speaker 1: based on the percentage or population of elderly people, sick people. 1403 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 1: Explain what the special needs are when it comes to 1404 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 1: the specialties, for example, West Virginia and and coal miners, 1405 01:14:53,960 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 1: maybe they have different needs than people in other parts 1406 01:14:56,880 --> 01:15:00,080 Speaker 1: of the country. Maybe there's some okay, and maybe you 1407 01:15:00,200 --> 01:15:03,679 Speaker 1: have a more elderly population in a place like Florida. 1408 01:15:04,439 --> 01:15:08,439 Speaker 1: Jonathan Gillham, you know this this again, Sean. I think 1409 01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:11,720 Speaker 1: we talked about this the last time. This whole insurance 1410 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:16,680 Speaker 1: thing that's going on is it's literally killing me as 1411 01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:20,240 Speaker 1: a conservative because I sit back and see how bad 1412 01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:24,320 Speaker 1: politics have gotten when we should just have and should 1413 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:28,120 Speaker 1: have had a bill ready to present when President Trump 1414 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 1: came in office and now myself as a conservative, not 1415 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,360 Speaker 1: an expert in insurance an by any means, I'm sitting 1416 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,680 Speaker 1: back like most conservatives saying what next? What are they 1417 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:39,960 Speaker 1: gonna screw us on? Now? Is this? Is there anything 1418 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 1: going to come out of this? And you know, the 1419 01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:43,880 Speaker 1: reality is I think President Trump is stuck in the 1420 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:48,880 Speaker 1: middle of this between the establishment on the right and 1421 01:15:49,040 --> 01:15:53,240 Speaker 1: the communists on the left. Communist on the left. Really, 1422 01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 1: it's Obamacare, not you. I'm talking about the people at 1423 01:15:57,040 --> 01:15:59,040 Speaker 1: the top of the time. Why do you say not him? 1424 01:15:59,160 --> 01:16:01,599 Speaker 1: Of course? Is am and is he loved Obama? Don't 1425 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 1: don't call Rick Hunger a communist? Why not? Yeah? Rick 1426 01:16:05,400 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 1: Ung doesn't like to be called a communist. Found that out, 1427 01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 1: all right? I don't think I want to go there. 1428 01:16:10,520 --> 01:16:12,880 Speaker 1: Oh you're just a radical state of socialist? How is 1429 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:16,040 Speaker 1: that when that makes you happy? I'm so radical? You 1430 01:16:16,120 --> 01:16:18,439 Speaker 1: know what the problem is? You know all you liberals 1431 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 1: are generous with other people's money. Well, there, there you go, 1432 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:24,439 Speaker 1: nine for one. Sean, you want to be a part 1433 01:16:24,479 --> 01:16:26,200 Speaker 1: of the program, We'll take a quick break. We'll get 1434 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: to your calls next. As we continue our news round 1435 01:16:29,160 --> 01:16:31,599 Speaker 1: up information Overload hour here on the Sean Hannity Show. 1436 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,799 Speaker 1: You know, if if the votes held on Saturday, certainly 1437 01:17:04,880 --> 01:17:06,800 Speaker 1: the votes will be there. But I can tell you 1438 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:09,840 Speaker 1: that as late as last night and again this morning, 1439 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:13,960 Speaker 1: some of those undecided members of Congress, primarily on the 1440 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:16,559 Speaker 1: Republican side, that's all we're counting on at this point, 1441 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:19,880 Speaker 1: are so close to yes that I'm very optimistic that 1442 01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:24,599 Speaker 1: whether the vote is is tomorrow or Saturday or next week, 1443 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:28,040 Speaker 1: that the votes will be there to actually pass this 1444 01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:31,759 Speaker 1: Senate make sure that it becomes better. It's not necessarily 1445 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:34,120 Speaker 1: a more conservative bill, but it is a bill that 1446 01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:37,360 Speaker 1: lowers premiums for the American people, allows us to hopefully 1447 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:41,719 Speaker 1: get onto tax reform uh in a very uh quick 1448 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:44,280 Speaker 1: fashion in the coming days. All Right, as we continue 1449 01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 1: with Rick Hunger and of course our good friend Jonathan Gillham, Guys, 1450 01:17:48,240 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 1: let me ask you, so Congress looks like they're now 1451 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:53,080 Speaker 1: going to get a healthcare replacement bill, Freedom Caucus on board, 1452 01:17:53,080 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 1: whipping the votes as we speak. Uh. This has got 1453 01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:59,760 Speaker 1: to break your liberal weeping heart. But I would think 1454 01:17:59,840 --> 01:18:02,200 Speaker 1: that Rick Younger, you would realize and admit now that 1455 01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:04,280 Speaker 1: we never got to keep our doctors or plans and 1456 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 1: we didn't save a family a year either. And it 1457 01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 1: was sold on one big lie, wasn't it. Well, there 1458 01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,560 Speaker 1: there were certainly lies told. I won't say it was 1459 01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,400 Speaker 1: sold on one big lie. And there are improvements that 1460 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 1: need to be made. It's not breaking my heart because 1461 01:18:19,439 --> 01:18:21,680 Speaker 1: a it's not going to get through the House. They 1462 01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:23,720 Speaker 1: may be whipping, but they're not getting enough in the 1463 01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:27,080 Speaker 1: moderate Republicans. And even if it does get through the House, 1464 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,679 Speaker 1: it doesn't get through the Senate. People who are aware 1465 01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:32,720 Speaker 1: of what this bill is realize is this is just 1466 01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:35,679 Speaker 1: a fail out. Congress is just saying we can't figure 1467 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:37,160 Speaker 1: out what to do with this, so, you know what, 1468 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 1: We'll let the nasty politics fall on the states. Good 1469 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:43,600 Speaker 1: luck governors. Well no, no, but but that's such a 1470 01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:45,720 Speaker 1: good point because they can take their waiver and they 1471 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:47,960 Speaker 1: can do what they want. And they can they can 1472 01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:52,600 Speaker 1: literally literally specialize or focus on the special needs of 1473 01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 1: the people in their state based on the percentage or 1474 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 1: population of elderly people, sick people. Explain what the special 1475 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,439 Speaker 1: needs are when it comes to the specialties. For example, 1476 01:19:02,520 --> 01:19:05,000 Speaker 1: West Virginia and and and coal miners, maybe they have 1477 01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:08,040 Speaker 1: different needs than people in other parts of the country, 1478 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:11,760 Speaker 1: maybe there's some okay, and maybe you have a more 1479 01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:17,280 Speaker 1: elderly population in a place like Florida. Jonathan Killham, you 1480 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:19,679 Speaker 1: know this this again, Sean. I think we talked about 1481 01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:22,920 Speaker 1: this the last time. This whole insurance thing that's going 1482 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:28,479 Speaker 1: on is it's literally killing me as a conservative because 1483 01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:31,960 Speaker 1: I sit back and see how bad politics have gotten 1484 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,840 Speaker 1: when we should just have and should have had a 1485 01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:39,519 Speaker 1: bill ready to present when President Trump came in office. 1486 01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:42,600 Speaker 1: And now myself, as a conservative, not an expert in 1487 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,679 Speaker 1: insurance and by any means, I'm sitting back like most 1488 01:19:45,720 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 1: conservatives saying what next? What are they going to screw 1489 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 1: us on? Now? Is this? Is there anything going to 1490 01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:53,040 Speaker 1: come out of this? And you know, the reality is, 1491 01:19:53,080 --> 01:19:54,920 Speaker 1: I think President Trump is stuck in the middle of 1492 01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:59,720 Speaker 1: this between the the establishment on the right and the 1493 01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 1: communists on the left, communists on the west. Obama, You're 1494 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:07,920 Speaker 1: not you. I'm talking about the people at the top 1495 01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:10,120 Speaker 1: of the Why do you say not him? Of course 1496 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:12,920 Speaker 1: he is a commun is he loved Obama? Don't call 1497 01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:16,960 Speaker 1: Rick communist? Why not? Yeah?

How's that one that makes you happy? 1501 01:20:25,040 --> 01:20:27,920 Speaker 1: I'm so radical? You know what the problem is?

And and radical snowflakes in many ways 1524 01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:39,439 Speaker 1: succeeded because they can't create an environment where and culture 1525 01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:41,920 Speaker 1: is even gonna be safe, God bless and culture and 1526 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 1: culture is willing to go out there and do it, 1527 01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 1: which you know, it shows a lot of courage on 1528 01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,080 Speaker 1: her part because you know what's gonna show up there. 1529 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:53,160 Speaker 1: But anyways, she was supposed to give a speech on campus. 1530 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:57,120 Speaker 1: Sounds pretty harmless, you know. But these radical left wing 1531 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:01,639 Speaker 1: you know, destroy Trump and he free speech fascists out 1532 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:05,559 Speaker 1: there that you know, remember the same people that started 1533 01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:09,439 Speaker 1: the riot over my Milo Napolis. They want him to 1534 01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:13,280 Speaker 1: talk either who cares who talks. You have radical Islamis 1535 01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 1: that are allowed to talk on on college campuses, Ah Londenijade. 1536 01:22:17,000 --> 01:22:19,040 Speaker 1: Where did he speak at Columbia Linda or was it 1537 01:22:19,120 --> 01:22:22,599 Speaker 1: at n y U? It was Colonia Columbia, the Ivy 1538 01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:27,720 Speaker 1: League institution. It's unbelievable, you know this. But the case 1539 01:22:27,840 --> 01:22:30,120 Speaker 1: in the Milow they started a near riot over his 1540 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 1: event out in Berkeley. Campus descends into chaos, all because 1541 01:22:34,200 --> 01:22:37,560 Speaker 1: they they don't want to hear an opposing voice, and 1542 01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:39,880 Speaker 1: the threatening to do the same thing to and Culter. 1543 01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 1: You know, the end, the great hypocrisy here is you know, 1544 01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:47,519 Speaker 1: the radical left, the radical left and the their their 1545 01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 1: accomplices in the media. They love to claim they are tolerant, 1546 01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 1: they're so inclusive, but it's just inaccurate. It's not true. 1547 01:22:55,479 --> 01:22:58,680 Speaker 1: It is an outright lie. That's not who they are. 1548 01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 1: They're just the opposite, maybe the biggest lie myth that 1549 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:05,640 Speaker 1: exists out there. You know, the First Amendment freedom of 1550 01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:09,439 Speaker 1: speech means nothing to them. To them, it's well free 1551 01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:12,320 Speaker 1: speech as long as you agree with them. So the 1552 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 1: goal is very simple. It's very obvious. No conservative voices 1553 01:23:17,080 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 1: in America shall speak in college campuses. You know how 1554 01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:25,320 Speaker 1: many conservatives get invited to give commencement exercises, even when 1555 01:23:25,360 --> 01:23:28,120 Speaker 1: a Republican president or vice president is asked. I think 1556 01:23:28,160 --> 01:23:29,920 Speaker 1: Mike Pence was asked to do it at Notre Dame 1557 01:23:29,960 --> 01:23:33,400 Speaker 1: and they're they're going to protest Notre Dame anyway. The 1558 01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:36,720 Speaker 1: president is speaking at Liberty University this year. Good for him, 1559 01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 1: And I doubt he's gonna get booed at Liberty nine 1560 01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,160 Speaker 1: of campuses he might get booed at. I'm not you know, 1561 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:44,640 Speaker 1: I really don't think so in this day and that 1562 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:47,439 Speaker 1: they will be shouted down by the pro Trump crowd. 1563 01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:50,479 Speaker 1: But you know, you create an environment. Look, if I'm 1564 01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 1: at of if I'm at a speech, or I'm at 1565 01:23:53,000 --> 01:23:57,639 Speaker 1: a commencement address, and let's say Obama is speaking, God 1566 01:23:57,720 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 1: help me having to sit through that nonsense, or he'll 1567 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:04,040 Speaker 1: ree Clinton, I'm gonna be respectful. We've never on this 1568 01:24:04,200 --> 01:24:08,120 Speaker 1: program started boycott's against Bill Maher, who has said outrageous 1569 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:12,639 Speaker 1: and scendiary, over the top things one after another. I've 1570 01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:14,400 Speaker 1: actually gone in the other direction. I've said he has 1571 01:24:14,439 --> 01:24:16,479 Speaker 1: a right to do it. And when he got fired 1572 01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:19,400 Speaker 1: from ABC and politically incorrect, it was conservative like me, 1573 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,960 Speaker 1: Russian Mark that defended him and said, don't fire him, 1574 01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:26,120 Speaker 1: no matter how outrageous the speeches, let him say it. 1575 01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:31,240 Speaker 1: And I had this girl from what was it, Fox Sports? Linda, Yeah, 1576 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 1: she called me a literal? What was it? It was? 1577 01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:39,920 Speaker 1: It was not exactly proper English? A literal? What you say? 1578 01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 1: I have no idea. I don't pay attention to her. 1579 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 1: She's not worth my time. Well the effort was in 1580 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:47,280 Speaker 1: there somewhere. Yeah, Well, you know, she's like, and I'm 1581 01:24:47,560 --> 01:24:49,559 Speaker 1: really messing. I said, this is gonna take you far 1582 01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:53,400 Speaker 1: in your career. You're a genius. And anyway, then people say, well, 1583 01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 1: you work for the same company, you're powerful within that company. 1584 01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:58,120 Speaker 1: You're trying to shut her down. You want a charter 1585 01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,320 Speaker 1: to fire her, And I whoa slow down here of cowboy, 1586 01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:03,840 Speaker 1: And I actually said on Twitter, I do not want 1587 01:25:03,880 --> 01:25:06,960 Speaker 1: to I do not support her getting fired. I don't 1588 01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:09,400 Speaker 1: want an investigation. She should be able to say anything 1589 01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:12,719 Speaker 1: she wants. And I ended up supporting her. Katie something 1590 01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 1: is her name. I don't even know. I don't even 1591 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:16,640 Speaker 1: know who she is, so I just fired back. She 1592 01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:18,560 Speaker 1: took a cheap shot, and I took one. You know, 1593 01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,160 Speaker 1: I stand up for myself. You know, you gotta understand 1594 01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:23,760 Speaker 1: this is this is important to all of us here, 1595 01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:28,799 Speaker 1: understanding what is going on here. It's it's much bigger 1596 01:25:28,840 --> 01:25:33,240 Speaker 1: than Ann Culter. It's much bigger than the lies and 1597 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:37,280 Speaker 1: besmirchment and smears that I've lived through in the last week. 1598 01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:40,679 Speaker 1: It's it's so much bigger. It's it's bigger than Bill O'Reilly. 1599 01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:43,639 Speaker 1: It's bigger than you know the times they've gone after 1600 01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:48,120 Speaker 1: Rush or doctor Laura or or Glenn Back or Laura Ingram. 1601 01:25:48,200 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 1: It's it's just that there's a level in the age 1602 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:54,200 Speaker 1: of Trump and an intensity that I've never seen before. 1603 01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:58,080 Speaker 1: And now I'm pretty confident and I know for sure 1604 01:25:58,160 --> 01:26:00,880 Speaker 1: because I know people are paid. I wish these people 1605 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:02,519 Speaker 1: that are paid, we ought to try and find them 1606 01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:05,040 Speaker 1: an interview them. They paid to monitor every word I 1607 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:08,080 Speaker 1: say on this radio show, and every other host, not 1608 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:11,680 Speaker 1: just me, any other conservative host, I should say. They 1609 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:14,120 Speaker 1: monitor every hour of TV and the hopes that I'll 1610 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:17,280 Speaker 1: say something that they think is boycottable and they'll try 1611 01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:19,720 Speaker 1: and get me off the air that way. But it's 1612 01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: still the same thing. It's liberal fascism. The reason they're 1613 01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:24,800 Speaker 1: doing it is political. They want to live in a 1614 01:26:24,920 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 1: society where where you better thread that needle perfectly, and 1615 01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:32,639 Speaker 1: anytime you get it wrong, you're dead. You're done. We're 1616 01:26:32,680 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 1: gonna get rid of you. Pretty amazing, But that's that 1617 01:26:35,479 --> 01:26:38,720 Speaker 1: is the environment we're now working and living in. That's 1618 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,200 Speaker 1: why it wasn't an accident. Two days after Bill O'Reilly 1619 01:26:42,280 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 1: and Fox News part waves. You know somebody that has 1620 01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:50,920 Speaker 1: been literally lying about me for well over a decade. 1621 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:53,719 Speaker 1: I think this event happened, and what two thousand and four, Linda, 1622 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:57,519 Speaker 1: when was it? It might it might even be O three, 1623 01:26:57,840 --> 01:26:59,640 Speaker 1: might might even be A three. I don't even know. 1624 01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 1: I don't even know that that I invited this person 1625 01:27:03,439 --> 01:27:08,760 Speaker 1: back to my hotel that you possibly didn't even have. Yeah, 1626 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:12,080 Speaker 1: because we were pretty sure. I flew out after the event, 1627 01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:14,120 Speaker 1: which is what you normally do, which is what I 1628 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,519 Speaker 1: almost always do if if we're close to home. Where 1629 01:27:17,520 --> 01:27:21,000 Speaker 1: am I sleep in London? Um? Yeah, I want to 1630 01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:24,160 Speaker 1: sleep in my own bed. I have landed at airports 1631 01:27:24,240 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 1: at three, four or five, six, seven am because I 1632 01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:28,720 Speaker 1: want to sleep in my own bed. I do it 1633 01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:32,240 Speaker 1: all the time. And the people that have been digging 1634 01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:35,640 Speaker 1: into the plane records think that they're almost sure I 1635 01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 1: did not stay there, so there was no hotel. But 1636 01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:40,840 Speaker 1: it's neither here nor there the history of this person. 1637 01:27:41,160 --> 01:27:43,320 Speaker 1: And then you get into the media and all these 1638 01:27:43,360 --> 01:27:46,360 Speaker 1: news organizations. So you have a person who has been 1639 01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:49,639 Speaker 1: proven to have lied about me repeatedly in the past, 1640 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 1: landard me in the past, provable lies that she makes 1641 01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 1: a wild accusation on a talk show somewhere in Oklahoma, 1642 01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:02,160 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, the New York Times 1643 01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 1: has called me. We want a statement. Okay, we're given 1644 01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 1: the history of who this woman is and the lies, 1645 01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:14,559 Speaker 1: provable lies and attack she's made. Then we give him 1646 01:28:14,560 --> 01:28:17,599 Speaker 1: a statement about the team of lawyers and investigators I've hired. 1647 01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:19,960 Speaker 1: And they say, five minutes later, no things, We're not interested. 1648 01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:22,400 Speaker 1: We're not running the story. I haven't told that story yet. 1649 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 1: The New York Times backed off immediately, and I can 1650 01:28:25,560 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: tell you what happened. The writer of that column, that 1651 01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:32,639 Speaker 1: article brought it to their general counsel. The general counsel said, 1652 01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 1: uh no, this is a lawsuit waiting to happen. No, 1653 01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:39,960 Speaker 1: thank you. And by the way, some of you people 1654 01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:41,920 Speaker 1: in the media, you might be hearing from friends of 1655 01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:46,400 Speaker 1: mine very very soon, very soon, sooner than you think soon. 1656 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:49,560 Speaker 1: So stay tuned. I wrote that on Twitter. Do you 1657 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:52,519 Speaker 1: see my tweet tonight, Linda? I always see your tweets. Boss. 1658 01:28:52,720 --> 01:28:57,320 Speaker 1: Thank you to all my irredeemable, deplorable friends. Stay tuned. 1659 01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:01,519 Speaker 1: Now you see you know you you're smiling because you 1660 01:29:01,640 --> 01:29:03,120 Speaker 1: think you know you don't know what I'm doing you. 1661 01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:04,920 Speaker 1: I haven't told you what I'm doing. Yet you're not 1662 01:29:05,000 --> 01:29:07,719 Speaker 1: even move And I've been here long enough to know already, 1663 01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:11,120 Speaker 1: don't I know before? You know? That's so annoying. It's 1664 01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:13,439 Speaker 1: a little annoying. It's a little annoying. All right. Let 1665 01:29:13,479 --> 01:29:15,439 Speaker 1: me get to UM. Let me get to the Phone's 1666 01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:19,320 Speaker 1: Donna Frederick Frederick Maryland is next on the Sean Hannity Show. Donna, Hi, 1667 01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:22,960 Speaker 1: how are you been a long time? Glad you called hi, Sean. 1668 01:29:23,320 --> 01:29:25,400 Speaker 1: It is such a pleasant to hear your voice. And 1669 01:29:25,520 --> 01:29:28,439 Speaker 1: I have been a long time listener. I remember the 1670 01:29:28,600 --> 01:29:33,000 Speaker 1: linn and I was not false from you at w 1671 01:29:33,280 --> 01:29:36,559 Speaker 1: z d X and UM and there were a lot 1672 01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:38,800 Speaker 1: of people I work with down there that was very 1673 01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 1: fond of you. And I want to say, I'm thrilled 1674 01:29:42,439 --> 01:29:45,960 Speaker 1: that you're standing up for yourself. I think it's about 1675 01:29:46,080 --> 01:29:49,000 Speaker 1: time we hit them back. It's part of their whole 1676 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:53,960 Speaker 1: useful idiot mantra. They they're like sharks that that smell 1677 01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:56,920 Speaker 1: blood in the water, and they're relentless. So I think 1678 01:29:56,960 --> 01:30:01,280 Speaker 1: it's really great you're pushing back him ard and people 1679 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:04,840 Speaker 1: are behind Sean. I just look, as I said to 1680 01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 1: somebody in the media, I said, oh I want some 1681 01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:08,240 Speaker 1: fair shot. Just take a look at us, Just look 1682 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:10,360 Speaker 1: at it and then tell me, you know, put yourself 1683 01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:13,639 Speaker 1: in my shoes. And it's two thousand and four through 1684 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 1: Linda say in three and it's this event, and here's 1685 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:22,280 Speaker 1: the history of smears, lies, presmirchment, and slander, and you 1686 01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:25,400 Speaker 1: tell me if And that's the frustrating thing. I mean, 1687 01:30:25,520 --> 01:30:30,600 Speaker 1: it would have taken a rudimentary, simple Google search. And 1688 01:30:30,720 --> 01:30:34,719 Speaker 1: here's here's the legal question that's that will be investigated deeply. 1689 01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:41,679 Speaker 1: Did the media have an obligation to do even rudimentary, simple, 1690 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:48,120 Speaker 1: basic background work on one person's statement before they ran 1691 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:52,960 Speaker 1: with their with their huge headline. Did they have an 1692 01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:56,800 Speaker 1: obligation as a member of the media, is is there 1693 01:30:56,840 --> 01:31:02,680 Speaker 1: a level of responsibility they should bear on allegations? Well, 1694 01:31:02,760 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 1: that might be that that might be ultimately the question 1695 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna be asking in this case. I don't want 1696 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:08,559 Speaker 1: to give it all the way, but I'm just I'm 1697 01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:11,800 Speaker 1: trying to lay the groundwork here for what is at stake. 1698 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,479 Speaker 1: In other words, if somebody for a fifteen years smears 1699 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:19,200 Speaker 1: Donna and Frederick Maryland and then that same person comes 1700 01:31:19,240 --> 01:31:25,559 Speaker 1: out with the scirless allegation something so outrageous that any 1701 01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:27,920 Speaker 1: media outlet they say, all right, we're gonna report Donna 1702 01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:31,880 Speaker 1: from Frederick, Maryland is accused of this. But they could 1703 01:31:31,920 --> 01:31:35,559 Speaker 1: have googled, and they could have done rudimentary background work. 1704 01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 1: But they're too lazy and too incompetent, and too disrespectful 1705 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:46,040 Speaker 1: of the truth to even bother a Google search. Do 1706 01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:48,840 Speaker 1: they have a responsibility before they do that? I say 1707 01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:53,080 Speaker 1: they do. They're desperate because it's worked for them. Think 1708 01:31:53,120 --> 01:31:55,680 Speaker 1: about the people that work with like Alan West and 1709 01:31:56,360 --> 01:32:00,880 Speaker 1: Harmony Kaine, Sarah Palin. You're just another person in the 1710 01:32:01,040 --> 01:32:03,600 Speaker 1: wrong line of people that they're trying its garbage on 1711 01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:06,040 Speaker 1: because it happens to work for them. I think those 1712 01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:09,479 Speaker 1: days are over. We'll see there's uh, there's there's gonna 1713 01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:12,000 Speaker 1: be a lot of good, interesting, fun questions that are 1714 01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:14,719 Speaker 1: raised here in the end. And Uh, Donna, I appreciate 1715 01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,720 Speaker 1: your kind words. God bless you. Thank you for being 1716 01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:19,680 Speaker 1: out there. We appreciate it. Uh. Let's get to our 1717 01:32:19,720 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 1: busy phones as we say hi to ken Is in 1718 01:32:22,160 --> 01:32:25,360 Speaker 1: Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Uh, listening to w f L A, 1719 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:29,200 Speaker 1: what's up? Can how are you sean? Help you feeling better? Not? Yeah? 1720 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:31,040 Speaker 1: But I'm getting there a little bit better, getting there 1721 01:32:31,080 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 1: getting shot. I was just calling regarding the wall. You know, 1722 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:36,680 Speaker 1: this is uphill battle for Mr Trump doing what he's doing. 1723 01:32:37,479 --> 01:32:39,760 Speaker 1: And as you know, I live in South Florida and 1724 01:32:39,880 --> 01:32:41,720 Speaker 1: we don't we you know, we have in flux of 1725 01:32:42,080 --> 01:32:45,080 Speaker 1: Cubans coming over the on the raft constantly, which you know, 1726 01:32:45,160 --> 01:32:47,360 Speaker 1: I don't blame from leaving that country at the time 1727 01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:50,200 Speaker 1: they had to, But which is wall? I was wondering, 1728 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:52,760 Speaker 1: why didn't I'm sure he has, I didn't haven't heard it. 1729 01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:54,840 Speaker 1: Why didn't he talk to the people already down there? 1730 01:32:55,000 --> 01:32:57,800 Speaker 1: Is it an alternative way of resolving the problem other 1731 01:32:57,840 --> 01:32:59,840 Speaker 1: than a wall? Like there's some places that wall is 1732 01:32:59,880 --> 01:33:03,759 Speaker 1: not to be practical where it goes across rivers and stuff. 1733 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:05,360 Speaker 1: As we know, I'm it's gonna be an uphill batle 1734 01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:08,280 Speaker 1: no matter what for him. But we all need that. 1735 01:33:08,400 --> 01:33:11,560 Speaker 1: This country definitely needs some type of order control and 1736 01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:13,760 Speaker 1: the Coast Guard does what they can out here, and 1737 01:33:13,920 --> 01:33:17,000 Speaker 1: it's interesting just enforcing the laws. We've got a seventeen 1738 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:19,560 Speaker 1: year low of illegal immigration, so that that's helping. But 1739 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:21,840 Speaker 1: I actually think that we do need the wall, And 1740 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:24,760 Speaker 1: that's my own personal opinion. I understand that it's not 1741 01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:27,639 Speaker 1: going to cover the entire two thousand, two hundred miles, 1742 01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,360 Speaker 1: whatever the length happens to be, but maybe a thousand 1743 01:33:30,439 --> 01:33:34,080 Speaker 1: of them. Maybe then other ultra security cameras. You know, 1744 01:33:34,160 --> 01:33:37,200 Speaker 1: there's new technology we certainly can use in areas. But 1745 01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:39,920 Speaker 1: having been down there myself as often as I've been, 1746 01:33:40,760 --> 01:33:42,800 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt that you need a wall. 1747 01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:45,439 Speaker 1: But in order to get that wall done, it's gonna 1748 01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:47,360 Speaker 1: take so long to build. In the might I mean, 1749 01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:49,639 Speaker 1: it's already stopped a lot since he's been in office. 1750 01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:52,200 Speaker 1: You look at how much has already decreased, which is phenomenal. 1751 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:54,559 Speaker 1: Just where I am scaring him as a new sheriff 1752 01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:57,160 Speaker 1: in town, the attitude. I'm just thinking, when the time being, 1753 01:33:57,240 --> 01:33:58,920 Speaker 1: get the ball rolling. If they can come out with 1754 01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:01,960 Speaker 1: there's some alternative method before the wall does get built 1755 01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:04,320 Speaker 1: to stop it from slowing it down the one they 1756 01:34:04,360 --> 01:34:07,240 Speaker 1: can and I hope the best form, and I hope 1757 01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 1: it works out. I appreciate a good called. Thank you, 1758 01:34:10,120 --> 01:34:12,320 Speaker 1: Ken eight nine for one, Sean, you want to be 1759 01:34:12,360 --> 01:34:13,880 Speaker 1: a part of the program. All right, Lance, We've got 1760 01:34:13,920 --> 01:34:17,080 Speaker 1: about forty seconds, kr MG, what's up? Lands. How are you, hi, shown, 1761 01:34:17,120 --> 01:34:20,439 Speaker 1: how are you today? I'm good, sir, yours go great? Great, Well, 1762 01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:22,840 Speaker 1: it's a pleasure speaking to you. Thank you for all 1763 01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:25,080 Speaker 1: you do. I'm calling in on the wall as well. 1764 01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:28,360 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of the conversation surrounding the 1765 01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:31,640 Speaker 1: wall has been tactical, and I think in light of 1766 01:34:31,720 --> 01:34:35,040 Speaker 1: the new Voice program and some of the other services 1767 01:34:35,120 --> 01:34:38,000 Speaker 1: that will be provided for victims families, I'd like to 1768 01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:40,720 Speaker 1: see the narrative shift on the wall being more of 1769 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:45,080 Speaker 1: a memorial or a monument to honor the families of 1770 01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:49,360 Speaker 1: of the victims of violent crime. We are a nation 1771 01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:53,080 Speaker 1: of laws. I think that, you know, controlling that narrative 1772 01:34:53,400 --> 01:34:56,800 Speaker 1: and creating a symbol. So you're saying, maybe, like, honor 1773 01:34:56,960 --> 01:34:59,439 Speaker 1: these people that have been killed by illegal immigrants and 1774 01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:02,360 Speaker 1: put their name is up on the wall, correct, correct? 1775 01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:04,760 Speaker 1: You know, I gotta roll, But I don't think that's 1776 01:35:04,800 --> 01:35:08,280 Speaker 1: a bad idea, and let those parents know that that 1777 01:35:09,280 --> 01:35:11,479 Speaker 1: we are now that wall was built in honor of 1778 01:35:11,680 --> 01:35:14,560 Speaker 1: their loss, and that America is taking it seriously so 1779 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:18,040 Speaker 1: other people don't need to suffer the way they have suffered. 1780 01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:21,320 Speaker 1: You're like, I can't imagine losing a parent this way. 1781 01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:24,800 Speaker 1: Like we had Steve Ronnebeck on the program yesterday and 1782 01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:27,200 Speaker 1: he lost his twenty one year olds Grant Renebeck, to 1783 01:35:27,240 --> 01:35:30,760 Speaker 1: a guy that was a criminal alien that had kidnapped 1784 01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:33,040 Speaker 1: and held hostage a woman for a week and was 1785 01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:38,879 Speaker 1: released and not supported. King Ted Copple says Sean Hannity 1786 01:35:39,120 --> 01:35:44,160 Speaker 1: is bad for America. Sean Hannity
