WEBVTT - NPR On The Ropes - March 27th, Hour 1

0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right

0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:04.640
<v Speaker 1>down our toll free telephone number. We've got a lot

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:06.640
<v Speaker 1>of news today. It's eight hundred and ninety four to

0:00:06.640 --> 0:00:08.680
<v Speaker 1>one Sean. If you want to be a part of

0:00:08.800 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 1>the program, we will start with this news. The President

0:00:14.720 --> 0:00:18.520
<v Speaker 1>has announced that he has asked Representative Congresswoman a Lease

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:21.840
<v Speaker 1>the Phonic to bow out of contention to be the

0:00:22.079 --> 0:00:25.200
<v Speaker 1>US ambassador to the UN. He cited the GOP slim

0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:28.520
<v Speaker 1>majority writing on Truth Social I have asked the Lease,

0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.479
<v Speaker 1>one of my biggest allies, to remain in Congress to

0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:35.840
<v Speaker 1>help me deliver historic tax cuts, great jobs, record economic growth,

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:39.160
<v Speaker 1>to secure border energy dominance, peace through strength, and much

0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:42.360
<v Speaker 1>more so that we can make America great again with

0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>a tight majority. I don't want to take a chance

0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>on anyone else running for a Lease's seat. That people

0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>love Elise and with her we have nothing to worry

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:54.560
<v Speaker 1>about come election day. There are others that can do

0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>a good job at the United Nations. Republicans have been

0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:01.279
<v Speaker 1>concerned that New York Governor Or Hoko could seek a

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:04.640
<v Speaker 1>to slow walk the election, leaving Stephanic seat open for

0:01:04.680 --> 0:01:07.720
<v Speaker 1>as long as possible. This is just, you know, typical

0:01:07.880 --> 0:01:12.200
<v Speaker 1>New York Albany corruption that is just standard fair and

0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:15.119
<v Speaker 1>this has been discussed now for some time now. This

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>news that I'm going to give you, I want you

0:01:17.080 --> 0:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>to pay very close attention to, and I've gone through

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:23.080
<v Speaker 1>this in great specificity, in detail even throughout this week.

0:01:23.160 --> 0:01:26.399
<v Speaker 1>I'll try not to duplicate what I've said earlier, but

0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:31.840
<v Speaker 1>if you look at the Treasury Department website, Reuters and

0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>other stories that are out there today, a detail that

0:01:35.680 --> 0:01:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I doubt you're going to hear in the state run

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:42.759
<v Speaker 1>legacy media mob. They're still busy talking about the one

0:01:42.840 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>off accidental inclusion of a reporter on the signal conversation.

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, you know, we go back to

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:55.160
<v Speaker 1>that too. Because I'm so sick and tired of what

0:01:55.240 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 1>they're saying. It's such a phony controversy. These people didn't

0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 1>care about known terrorists, murderers, rapists, gang members, cartel members

0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 1>coming into our country.

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:06.840
<v Speaker 2>They didn't They just didn't care.

0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>They don't care, and it's such fake, phony, fraudulent outrage.

0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I get so sick and tired of all of it.

0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>And as Pete Heeks has said, let me get this straight.

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:19.360
<v Speaker 1>The Atlantic released are so called war plans. The plans

0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 1>include no names, no targets, no locations, no units, no routes,

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 1>no sources, no methods, no classified information. Those are really

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>some I nan Adam Schiffe war plans, he continued. We

0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 1>will continue to do our job while the media does

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>what it does best, pedal la hoax, and that's all

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>they want to talk about. But they won't talk about

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.680
<v Speaker 1>any success. They're not going to talk about the fact

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:43.920
<v Speaker 1>that the border has been secured in such a short

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:47.200
<v Speaker 1>period of time and that the president is, in spite

0:02:47.200 --> 0:02:50.359
<v Speaker 1>of the law fair is at least now detaining even

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:52.960
<v Speaker 1>though the three judge panel have ruled against them, so

0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:56.080
<v Speaker 1>now it's off to the Supreme Court. I guess trying

0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:58.560
<v Speaker 1>to get rid of Trende Ragua gang members. Could you

0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:02.600
<v Speaker 1>imagine this is the party that champions men and women's sports,

0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:06.360
<v Speaker 1>the rights of illegals, including trend A Ragua gang members,

0:03:06.400 --> 0:03:09.800
<v Speaker 1>over the safety of Americans, and claims we have a

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:15.480
<v Speaker 1>constitutional crisis if we identify hundreds of billions of dollars

0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.919
<v Speaker 1>in waste, broaden abuse. They're also the party that has

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>no problem with domestic terrorism. I don't hear Democrats talking

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>out and speaking out loudly against what has been done

0:03:26.400 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>to Tesla. You know, you can't even talk about group thing.

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Everyone says, well, that's only a small part of the

0:03:31.960 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party, really, because I saw every member of the

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party sit on their ass during the joint Session

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:44.040
<v Speaker 1>addressed by the President when two mothers that lost their

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>children to Biden Harris unvetted illegals and they were being

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>honored that night, I didn't see a single Democrats stand

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 1>and applaud them and care about them. I haven't heard

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.840
<v Speaker 1>any Democrats speaking out about how you know, dozens of

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>dozens of dead Americans because of Biden Harris illegals, all

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 1>the dozens raped, the thousands of that are victims of

0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.640
<v Speaker 1>violent crime, all the people that have died from fentanyl

0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and opioid poisoning because of open borders. So anyway, here's

0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:19.039
<v Speaker 1>the detail you won't hear about from the state run

0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:21.320
<v Speaker 1>legacy media mob which I declared.

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:22.159
<v Speaker 2>Dead, gone and buried.

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.159
<v Speaker 1>They don't know it yet, they have no influence, and

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 1>they have lost the trust of the American people. They've

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:32.080
<v Speaker 1>earned the loss of trust. Anyway, the cumulative dollar value

0:04:32.560 --> 0:04:37.800
<v Speaker 1>of all foreign business investment that Donald Trump has secured

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:43.719
<v Speaker 1>since January twentieth for this country Tinzy became president, is

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>now nearly equal to all the tax revenue collected by

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the IRS in twenty twenty four. Now, these news outlets,

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:56.039
<v Speaker 1>a couple of them, and credit to the ones that

0:04:56.080 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>are reporting it that at the beginning of March, Donald

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:04.400
<v Speaker 1>trumpets secured commitments from foreign nations and from companies over

0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:09.839
<v Speaker 1>three trillion dollars in new investment. Yesterday's Yesterday, Reuters and

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.680
<v Speaker 1>other news outlets reported that the United Arab Emirates had

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 1>pledged to invest one point four trillion in business in

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the US. That's a total now four point four trillion dollars.

0:05:22.360 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 1>If you look at the US Treasury website, all the

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:28.240
<v Speaker 1>tax revenue collected by the IRS over the entire year

0:05:28.360 --> 0:05:32.840
<v Speaker 1>last year comes to four point nine trillion dollars. So

0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 1>that's just about five hundred billion dollars more than the

0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:40.839
<v Speaker 1>cumulative foreign business investments that Donald Trump has brought to

0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>America in just twelve weeks.

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.119
<v Speaker 1>It is true that most foreign investment commitments have spread

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>over a number of years. In the case of most

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:51.159
<v Speaker 1>of the investments, whether it be you know, from the

0:05:51.160 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 1>pharmaceutical industry and all those companies, and they have. They're

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>pledging hundreds of billions of dollars Apple, hundreds of billions

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>of dollars Honda. I've gone through the whole list, Honda, Nissan,

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.960
<v Speaker 1>the Taiwanese chip company, and I can keep going and going,

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>but I don't want to repeat myself, but this is

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a massive opportunity.

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.159
<v Speaker 2>Now. It was reported yesterday or the day before.

0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 1>India is now thinking about canceling what they had, all

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.719
<v Speaker 1>the tariffs they have put on before the April second

0:06:22.800 --> 0:06:29.160
<v Speaker 1>deadline because they don't want reciprocal tariffs placed on them.

0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 1>And at some point the European Union in Canada and

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:36.239
<v Speaker 1>other countries they'll also come around. I mean, the fact

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:40.720
<v Speaker 1>that Rolls Royce, a car company in Great Britain, is

0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:45.280
<v Speaker 1>coming up with contingency plans to build a factory here

0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 1>so they can build their engines here, and they do

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.000
<v Speaker 1>build some of the best engines in the world, is

0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:53.080
<v Speaker 1>no doubt about it. Is just evidence that they don't

0:06:53.080 --> 0:06:56.080
<v Speaker 1>want to deal with this. And the problem is is

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.400
<v Speaker 1>that all of these countries, even our so called allied countries,

0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.960
<v Speaker 1>have been taking advantage of US for a long period

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:05.720
<v Speaker 1>of time. By the way, the Trump Treasury Department revealed

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.040
<v Speaker 1>that the leading Democratic Party fundraiser, Act Blue, has been

0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the subject of a number of suspicious activity reports. House

0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>investigators now requesting access to those reports. Elon Musk is

0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 1>questioning whether Act Blue might be funding terrorist activities carried

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:26.400
<v Speaker 1>out by anti Tesla activists. Now, three Republicans in Congress,

0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>including the Chairman of the House Oversight and Administrative Panels,

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:34.840
<v Speaker 1>are urging Donald Trump's Treasury Department to share with lawmakers

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>reports of suspicious financial transactions related to Act Blue. Other

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:43.960
<v Speaker 1>GOP lawmakers are demanding probes by the Treasury and the

0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:49.200
<v Speaker 1>FBI into whether the fundraising platform has helped organizations that

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:54.400
<v Speaker 1>are engaging in domestic terrorism or violating federal campaign finance laws.

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's see what happens with that. By the way, a

0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:01.040
<v Speaker 1>top MS thirteen gang leader was a rec in Virginia.

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Great job, Governor Younkin, Great job, Christy Nome, great job,

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Tom Homan, great job local law enforcement.

0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Thank god.

0:08:09.800 --> 0:08:11.840
<v Speaker 1>These people put their lives on the line for all

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.760
<v Speaker 1>of us. You know the insanity of this, and we'll

0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:17.640
<v Speaker 1>get into this in the next hour with Joe Concha

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:23.040
<v Speaker 1>and Carol Roth, I mean Democrats, they still want to

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:31.360
<v Speaker 1>justify the spending abroad, which represents hundreds of billions of

0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 1>taxpayer dollars, knowing we have thirty seven trillion in debt,

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:38.560
<v Speaker 1>knowing the average America makes sixty six grand a year.

0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:44.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, they had this hearing in Congress yesterday and Democrats,

0:08:44.080 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, with their bingo cards, fire Elon and save Elmo. Well,

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing to stop Democrats from saving Elmo. You want

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.439
<v Speaker 1>to invest in Elmo, go invest in Elmo. Good idea.

0:08:56.840 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I support you investing in Elmo. But the idea that

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:04.559
<v Speaker 1>Jasmine Crockett, now one of the leading spokespeople the Democratic Party,

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>is claiming, well, this is about free speech, and then

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.959
<v Speaker 1>you just can't have Fox News. Fox News doesn't get

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 1>federal dollars to be on the air. We actually have

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:15.680
<v Speaker 1>real people that want to watch us because we put

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:16.160
<v Speaker 1>on news.

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:17.480
<v Speaker 2>You're not going to get an information.

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.240
<v Speaker 1>We give out information, news in an entertaining way that

0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:22.839
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to get elsewhere. I mean the fact

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:27.160
<v Speaker 1>that I watched this committee hearing and we'll play it later,

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, and there's the fire Elon, save Elmo. I mean,

0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 1>it's insane. By the way, speaking of Tesla, I got

0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:38.840
<v Speaker 1>my Tesla today. It is the greatest piece of machinery

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I've ever been in my life. The self driving mode

0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:45.760
<v Speaker 1>is incredible, zero to sixty one point nine to nine seconds.

0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:50.160
<v Speaker 1>This thing is a Remember, every other car has kind

0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 1>of made the same way, combustion engine all that, and

0:09:53.240 --> 0:09:56.280
<v Speaker 1>I've always had them. I did have one hybrid Cadillac

0:09:56.760 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 1>once Escalade, and it was a good car. There's good technology.

0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:06.199
<v Speaker 1>Is nothing compared to this over a thousand horsepower. That's

0:10:06.200 --> 0:10:08.400
<v Speaker 1>why I'm giving one away, and it's going to be

0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:11.040
<v Speaker 1>the Tesla of your choice, and you can sign up.

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 1>We're going to try and make it a little easier.

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.560
<v Speaker 1>The word of the day today, Tomorrow, Saturday, and Sunday

0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:18.160
<v Speaker 1>is going to be one word. It's America. You go

0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:20.560
<v Speaker 1>to Hannity dot com. We'll do this. You can do

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.679
<v Speaker 1>register once a day through April the eleventh, and if

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:27.719
<v Speaker 1>you once you go to the Tesla contest page, you

0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:29.240
<v Speaker 1>just put in the word of the day. For the

0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:31.280
<v Speaker 1>next four days, you can register once every day the

0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:35.080
<v Speaker 1>words America. It's that simple. It's really easy. And then

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 1>you get to pick the Tesla your choice. If you're

0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.480
<v Speaker 1>the winner, we're very excited about it anyway. So then

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>you have this head of MPR Katherine Mayer or mar

0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how she pronounces it. I do want

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.240
<v Speaker 1>to acknowledge that we were mistaken and failing to cover

0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the Hunter Biden laptop story more aggressively or sooner. Okay,

0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>this I couldn't understand, and this came up in the hearings.

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.440
<v Speaker 1>We'll play it later. The whole community. I don't even

0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:03.240
<v Speaker 1>know what this means. Apparently it took place on MPR,

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 1>according to the New York Post and the whole community

0:11:07.840 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>of gender queer dinosaur enthusiasts. They came up with the

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:16.120
<v Speaker 1>hearing yesterday. I might need help interpreting that fear of

0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>fatness is more harmful than actual fat Who came up

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:26.960
<v Speaker 1>with that genius idea? Now, if if you want free speech,

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm all for it. If the woman that runs this

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:35.160
<v Speaker 1>thing that was in the hot seat yesterday had to

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 1>explain away her tweets, do you believe that America is

0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 1>addicted to white supremacy?

0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I believe.

0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:47.400
<v Speaker 1>I tweeted that, And as I said earlier, I believe

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:52.120
<v Speaker 1>my thinking has evolved over the last half decade.

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.800
<v Speaker 2>You mean the last five years you changed?

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Or is this like a politician's election year conversion and

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:03.360
<v Speaker 1>in your case, please don't cut my funding conversion, and

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.480
<v Speaker 1>I'll say whatever you want me to say, but I'll

0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:09.200
<v Speaker 1>still keep MPR and PBS and all these publicly funded

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:13.760
<v Speaker 1>outlets as left wing as possible. One point admitting that

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:18.599
<v Speaker 1>every single employee that is registered that works for them

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:23.440
<v Speaker 1>is a registered Democrat. There wasn't one single Republican. And

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:27.320
<v Speaker 1>then also tweeting out, do you believe that America believes

0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:33.360
<v Speaker 1>in black plunder and white democracy? And she responds, well,

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe that, sir. Well then got called out

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:38.599
<v Speaker 1>by Congressman Gill, saying you tweeted that in reference to

0:12:38.640 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 1>a book you were reading at the time, apparently the

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Case for Reparations. She said, well, I don't think I've

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:45.559
<v Speaker 1>ever read that book. Well, Gill goes, well, you tweeted

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:47.440
<v Speaker 1>about it. You said you took a day off to

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.559
<v Speaker 1>fully read The Case of Reparation. She doesn't even remember

0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:55.040
<v Speaker 1>what she put on Twitter back in twenty twenty. I mean,

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.880
<v Speaker 1>all this was about is can I get as much

0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.000
<v Speaker 1>money as possible from US taxpayers?

0:12:59.040 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 2>That's all that is about.

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.480
<v Speaker 1>By the way, the Republicans now urge the Department of

0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:06.320
<v Speaker 1>Homeland Security to release data on the number of Biden

0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:10.280
<v Speaker 1>illegals who were parolled into the US. Boy, I'd love

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>to get that data. I'd like to know where these

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:18.360
<v Speaker 1>people are, especially the people will terroritize, unvetted, the gang members,

0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:23.280
<v Speaker 1>cartel members, known murderers, rapists. And why would any judge

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>you go against the Alien Enemies Act, which has been

0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:32.160
<v Speaker 1>rendered constitutional in a Supreme Court decision in nineteen forty

0:13:32.200 --> 0:13:36.559
<v Speaker 1>eight used by four prior presidents. And not only not

0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:40.800
<v Speaker 1>only did the court hold that it was legal for

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 1>the president to do so, but upon using the Alien

0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Enemies Act, it was not subject to judicial review. That's

0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:52.400
<v Speaker 1>how rock solid that decision was. Let's see what John

0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Roberts and his court has to say about it, because

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 1>it looks like that's where it's going next. Now, where

0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.120
<v Speaker 1>does the time go? I don't even know, just flies

0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:04.520
<v Speaker 1>on by doze uncovered another whopping four point seven billion

0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:08.720
<v Speaker 1>dollars being wasted, your tax dollars that Joe Biden and

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:12.920
<v Speaker 1>his radical leftist you know, puppet masters were blowing on

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:18.400
<v Speaker 1>woke nonsense, the Department of Government Efficiency announcing that it

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:22.280
<v Speaker 1>terminated one hundred and thirteen contracts valued at four point

0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:27.400
<v Speaker 1>seven billion dollars, including a Department of Agriculture consulting contract

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:32.200
<v Speaker 1>for Peru and their climate change activities. I'm sure that's

0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:35.720
<v Speaker 1>a top priority for your children. DOGE has also announced

0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.520
<v Speaker 1>the Department of Labor canceled five hundred and seventy seven

0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:42.200
<v Speaker 1>million in America last grants, totaling two hundred and thirty

0:14:42.200 --> 0:14:48.240
<v Speaker 1>seven million in savings. The funding that was canceled also

0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 1>included ten million dollars for gender equity in the Mexican workplace,

0:14:52.640 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 1>twelve point two million for worker empowerment in South Africa,

0:14:56.040 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 1>six point twenty five million for improving respect for worker

0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:04.920
<v Speaker 1>rights and agricultural supply chains in the countries of Honduras, Guatemala,

0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.960
<v Speaker 1>El Salvador, and eliminated five million dollars to elevate women's

0:15:09.000 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 1>participation in the workplace in West Africa, four point three

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:15.840
<v Speaker 1>million to assist foreign migrant workers in Malaysia. And I

0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 1>can keep going if you want the total number. We

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:23.040
<v Speaker 1>are now at one hundred and thirty billion in savings.

0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:28.400
<v Speaker 2>Breaking news straight from the source. It's pretty amazing, isn't it.

0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:32.720
<v Speaker 1>The amount of money that the president is saving this country,

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:35.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, And what Elon Musk and DOZE is doing

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to help this country. They just uncovered four point seven

0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:44.960
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars of your tax dollars that Biden and the

0:15:45.040 --> 0:15:48.440
<v Speaker 1>radical leftists in this country. You know, we're blowing on

0:15:48.480 --> 0:15:50.600
<v Speaker 1>their woke nonsense. I just went through all of that.

0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 1>So far, DOZE is up to one hundred and thirty

0:15:54.480 --> 0:16:02.040
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars in discovering waste, fraud, abuse, corruption. That's nearly

0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:04.520
<v Speaker 1>one thousand dollars a taxpayer. It's eight hundred and seven

0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:08.600
<v Speaker 1>dollars and forty five cents per taxpayer. That's real money

0:16:08.640 --> 0:16:10.960
<v Speaker 1>in your pocket. By the way, we could use that

0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.160
<v Speaker 1>money to pay down the debt and stop stealing from

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:16.360
<v Speaker 1>our kids. We could shore up social Security and medicare.

0:16:17.080 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, we could use it for the next generation

0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:24.200
<v Speaker 1>of weaponry. We could use it to get rid of

0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:29.040
<v Speaker 1>all of these partel members, gang members, terrorists, rapists, murderers

0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:33.000
<v Speaker 1>that Biden and Harris allowed into the country. I mean,

0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:37.520
<v Speaker 1>it's just a simple, basic, fundamental common sense, which unfortunately

0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>is not that common anymore.

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:40.480
<v Speaker 2>It's unbelievable.

0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Trump warns that he may issue an executive order ending

0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:44.680
<v Speaker 1>sanctuary cities.

0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 2>I think he should.

0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Sanctuary cities are basically cities that are codifying law breaking.

0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean the idea of helping I mean, I told

0:16:56.640 --> 0:17:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the story the other day that they spent what ninety

0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:03.880
<v Speaker 1>five billion dollars or whatever on healthcare for illegals in

0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:08.520
<v Speaker 1>California medical and now they're having to borrow money because

0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:12.399
<v Speaker 1>they're running a huge deficit. And Gavin Newsom will not

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:15.919
<v Speaker 1>give in on remaining a sanctuary state. In a sanctuary

0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:20.120
<v Speaker 1>city of LA in San Francisco, they're guarding criminals, President

0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:22.919
<v Speaker 1>Trump told reporters they're taking the rights away from the

0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:25.880
<v Speaker 1>citizens of the state and the city. And we're going

0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:29.040
<v Speaker 1>to be ending sanctuary cities if we find it necessary

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.439
<v Speaker 1>to do in certain major areas, and we may just

0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:35.720
<v Speaker 1>end the entire thing all together, because it's just a

0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:39.040
<v Speaker 1>way of protecting criminals and nobody else benefits by this.

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:43.360
<v Speaker 1>The Boston Mayor, Michelle Woo, has continued to battle the administration,

0:17:43.480 --> 0:17:47.880
<v Speaker 1>asserting that Boston stands with immigrants and the comments prompted

0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:51.680
<v Speaker 1>the borders are Tom Homan a focus on Boston where

0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:54.720
<v Speaker 1>he did oversee three hundred and eighty US Immigration and

0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:59.400
<v Speaker 1>Customs enforcement arrest last week, and what we're finding out

0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:02.240
<v Speaker 1>about a lot a lot of the people that they're resting.

0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:04.960
<v Speaker 1>Is there are a lot of bad people, and now

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:07.439
<v Speaker 1>we have to battle in the courts to have the

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:11.480
<v Speaker 1>president's policy of deporting these people, you know, get implemented.

0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:15.639
<v Speaker 1>Pretty unbelievable, and that's what Alan Derschwitz I think rightly

0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:21.960
<v Speaker 1>predicting that the US Supreme Court will ultimately rule in

0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:25.440
<v Speaker 1>favor of President Trump and his right to deport members

0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:29.040
<v Speaker 1>of the Venezuelan gang Trende Ragua. He said, the US

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Court of Appeals in DC has affirmed the lower court

0:18:31.800 --> 0:18:36.080
<v Speaker 1>decision not to permit any more airplane flights or deportees

0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:38.359
<v Speaker 1>to go to El Salvador. Ultimately, the case will be

0:18:38.400 --> 0:18:41.160
<v Speaker 1>decided on the merits, and eventually I think it will

0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:43.120
<v Speaker 1>probably go to the US Supreme Court, and I think

0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:46.200
<v Speaker 1>the power of the president to order deportation with due

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:51.360
<v Speaker 1>process will be upheld. My prediction is a divided one. Substantively,

0:18:51.440 --> 0:18:54.720
<v Speaker 1>the power of the president will be upheld procedurally, They'll

0:18:54.720 --> 0:18:57.439
<v Speaker 1>have to get due process. And the remaining question is

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:01.119
<v Speaker 1>do federal courts have the power to enforce process against

0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:04.919
<v Speaker 1>the wishes of the executive Is this purely an executive function?

0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Based on Supreme Court precedents, the case of nineteen forty eight,

0:19:09.280 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 1>that would be the president's decision. And in that decision

0:19:13.320 --> 0:19:19.440
<v Speaker 1>they did adjudicate that there is no judicial remedy after

0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.840
<v Speaker 1>the president invokes the Alien Enemies Act. Why let the

0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:28.640
<v Speaker 1>law get in the way anyway, It's so it's so despicable.

0:19:29.480 --> 0:19:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Now President Trump founded off on truth social early today

0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:38.320
<v Speaker 1>because that same judge that stopped the deportations. This is

0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:41.080
<v Speaker 1>the idiot judge that said, if they're flying in the air,

0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.359
<v Speaker 1>now have the planes turn around and come back.

0:19:44.280 --> 0:19:44.919
<v Speaker 2>What a dope.

0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, he's with the US District Court for the District

0:19:49.000 --> 0:19:53.800
<v Speaker 1>for DC, assigned now to preside over a lawsuit lodged

0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:57.879
<v Speaker 1>against several Trump administration officials and the National Archives and

0:19:57.920 --> 0:20:02.119
<v Speaker 1>Record Administration. The Obama nominated judge also presided over the

0:20:02.200 --> 0:20:06.440
<v Speaker 1>lawsuit challenging the invocation of the Alien Enemies Act. I mean,

0:20:06.480 --> 0:20:08.520
<v Speaker 1>how is it this guy gets picked every time. It's

0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:11.040
<v Speaker 1>just a sheer accident, I know, just a mere coincidence.

0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 1>On federal judge denies the administration's effort to ban transgend

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:21.639
<v Speaker 1>transgender people from the military. Okay, it's just this is

0:20:21.800 --> 0:20:24.879
<v Speaker 1>now what we have been calling it. This is now

0:20:24.960 --> 0:20:29.320
<v Speaker 1>a new form of lawfare. This is judicial activism. This

0:20:29.480 --> 0:20:32.800
<v Speaker 1>is court shopping, This is judge shopping. This is what

0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Democrats can't get done electorally, what they can't get done legislatively,

0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:42.359
<v Speaker 1>they go to activist jurists so that they will enact

0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:46.399
<v Speaker 1>their radical agenda for them. Jim Jordan is going to

0:20:46.720 --> 0:20:50.119
<v Speaker 1>as well as others next week, begin the process of

0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.720
<v Speaker 1>taking away power from these low level judges so that

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:59.400
<v Speaker 1>they no longer have the ability to block the constitutionally

0:20:59.480 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 1>authorized powers of the president. One thing that people don't

0:21:03.640 --> 0:21:07.080
<v Speaker 1>understand is this terrif issue. And I'm the more and

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 1>more I listen to people, more and more I realize

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:10.959
<v Speaker 1>how dumb some people are.

0:21:11.000 --> 0:21:11.879
<v Speaker 2>They really are dumb.

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:16.119
<v Speaker 1>And what the President is doing is the President is

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:21.760
<v Speaker 1>trying to get countries who have free and fair trade.

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:25.320
<v Speaker 1>European Union countries have not been fair to the US.

0:21:25.720 --> 0:21:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Canada has not been fair to the United States of America,

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:33.639
<v Speaker 1>and so the President announced the twenty five percent tariff,

0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:36.760
<v Speaker 1>for example, on imported cars. Now, let me give you

0:21:36.760 --> 0:21:40.920
<v Speaker 1>an example. Germany sells eight cars in America for every

0:21:41.000 --> 0:21:46.119
<v Speaker 1>one car that we sell in Germany, American made car. Okay,

0:21:46.160 --> 0:21:48.639
<v Speaker 1>that's not a fair ratio, is it? Well, why is that?

0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Why do they do they not like American cars? No,

0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:55.840
<v Speaker 1>there's such there's such a massive amount of money that

0:21:56.000 --> 0:21:58.439
<v Speaker 1>is piled onto the cost of the car. It becomes

0:21:58.480 --> 0:22:01.840
<v Speaker 1>unaffordable for people in Germany. So you start out with

0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:05.040
<v Speaker 1>a ten percent teriff, flat out tariff, and then they

0:22:05.040 --> 0:22:07.680
<v Speaker 1>have in Germany what's called a VAT tax or a

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:11.480
<v Speaker 1>value added tax, which is a sales tax, and based

0:22:11.480 --> 0:22:13.800
<v Speaker 1>on the high cost of a car. That sales tax

0:22:14.160 --> 0:22:17.840
<v Speaker 1>then makes it cost prohibitive for most people, so that

0:22:17.960 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 1>then becomes another tax. Now India is considering reducing their

0:22:23.000 --> 0:22:27.280
<v Speaker 1>tariffs on US products by wapping twenty three billion dollars. Well,

0:22:27.280 --> 0:22:29.840
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute, Donald Trump is going to start a

0:22:29.920 --> 0:22:34.040
<v Speaker 1>trade war. New Gingrich pointed out, Actually, America has fared

0:22:34.160 --> 0:22:38.120
<v Speaker 1>very well when we have reciprocal tariffs put on other countries,

0:22:38.359 --> 0:22:41.640
<v Speaker 1>or we put tariffs on other countries. But India's government

0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 1>told Reuters that New Delhi is now considering twenty three

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:48.400
<v Speaker 1>billion in teriff reductions on US imports to stave off

0:22:48.880 --> 0:22:52.720
<v Speaker 1>President Trump's threatened reciprocal tariffs, which would effect at least

0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:56.359
<v Speaker 1>sixty six billion in Indian exports if it takes effect

0:22:56.480 --> 0:23:00.600
<v Speaker 1>next week. According to Reuter's sources, the Indian government ran

0:23:00.640 --> 0:23:03.400
<v Speaker 1>the numbers concluded it will fare much better by lowering

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:07.120
<v Speaker 1>their tariffs, even though it will lose some income under

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:09.760
<v Speaker 1>the deal. And he is open to reducing tariffs on

0:23:09.840 --> 0:23:13.320
<v Speaker 1>fifty five percent of US goods on its imports and

0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:16.760
<v Speaker 1>are now subject to terroriffs ranging from five to thirty percent.

0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that's progress.

0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:22.800
<v Speaker 1>If they rescind those tariffs but don't rescind others, then

0:23:22.800 --> 0:23:27.680
<v Speaker 1>the president can implement, you know, his agenda. Pretty amazing.

0:23:27.760 --> 0:23:31.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, over nine million student loan borrowers are passed due.

0:23:32.080 --> 0:23:33.720
<v Speaker 1>How do they get away with that? How do you

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:36.280
<v Speaker 1>get away with not paying your bill? I mean, it's

0:23:36.280 --> 0:23:38.439
<v Speaker 1>not like a car loan where somebody, you know, the

0:23:38.520 --> 0:23:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Repoman can come and take your car. What are you

0:23:40.480 --> 0:23:43.840
<v Speaker 1>supposed to do? All these people they sign off on

0:23:43.920 --> 0:23:46.320
<v Speaker 1>a loan, you don't pay it back. Now, maybe some

0:23:46.359 --> 0:23:48.720
<v Speaker 1>people run into tough economic times, but if you do,

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:52.520
<v Speaker 1>you should get in contact with your lender and work

0:23:52.560 --> 0:23:55.560
<v Speaker 1>out a payment plan. Tell them what your situation is,

0:23:56.400 --> 0:23:58.520
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure that they will work with you. It

0:23:58.560 --> 0:24:01.639
<v Speaker 1>happens all the time. They prefer that rather than people

0:24:01.720 --> 0:24:04.440
<v Speaker 1>running and hiding, which a lot of people also are

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:09.240
<v Speaker 1>capable of doing as well. On Well, you know, there's

0:24:09.240 --> 0:24:11.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of stories today that actually caught my attention

0:24:11.640 --> 0:24:15.280
<v Speaker 1>that are driving me crazy. And I mentioned this whole

0:24:15.320 --> 0:24:21.040
<v Speaker 1>issue involving MPR, you know, National Public Radio in this

0:24:21.200 --> 0:24:22.280
<v Speaker 1>testimony that took place.

0:24:22.280 --> 0:24:23.920
<v Speaker 2>We'll do more on this at the top of the hour.

0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:31.040
<v Speaker 1>One craze transgender male allegedly attacking a female turning point

0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:35.679
<v Speaker 1>US a leader while they were tabling at the University

0:24:35.720 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 1>of Texas in Dallas on Tuesday. Anyway, Charlie Kirk posted

0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the footage of the incident on x showing the male,

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:48.520
<v Speaker 1>dressed in women's clothes, allegedly swinging at the students with

0:24:48.680 --> 0:24:52.800
<v Speaker 1>his bike clock before cycling away. I mean, what triggers

0:24:52.840 --> 0:24:57.120
<v Speaker 1>people this way? Why are people shooting bullets into Tesla dealerships?

0:24:57.760 --> 0:25:01.879
<v Speaker 1>Why are they setting charging stations ablaze? Where's the Democratic Party?

0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:04.680
<v Speaker 1>The peaceful party? All we're saying is give piece a chance.

0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:09.280
<v Speaker 1>Whatever happened to that party? This is a sad story.

0:25:09.520 --> 0:25:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Lawsuit filed against Walt Disney Parks and Resorts you in

0:25:14.840 --> 0:25:18.600
<v Speaker 1>relation to a twenty twenty three investigation into an ex

0:25:18.680 --> 0:25:23.119
<v Speaker 1>Florida employee accused of filming up the skirts of teenage

0:25:23.240 --> 0:25:28.360
<v Speaker 1>girls Box thirty five reporting the lawsuit. I mean, isn't

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:30.840
<v Speaker 1>it kind of the most bizarre feeling to know that

0:25:30.880 --> 0:25:34.159
<v Speaker 1>such creepy people are in the world. It drives me

0:25:34.320 --> 0:25:37.640
<v Speaker 1>crazy as a parent, and my kids think I'm nuts

0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:40.920
<v Speaker 1>and like trust nobody. Don't trust anybody. I don't even

0:25:40.920 --> 0:25:43.640
<v Speaker 1>trust Linda anymore. Can't trust Linda. She has a hate list.

0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:51.280
<v Speaker 1>No saying La approved. Now, this is why all you

0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 1>people that believe in government, I want you to pay

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:56.600
<v Speaker 1>attention to this. So we watched the Pacific Palisades fire.

0:25:57.200 --> 0:25:59.440
<v Speaker 1>You saw fire hydrants that didn't have water in them.

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:04.160
<v Speaker 1>We saw an empty reservoir. We learned that a lot

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:06.080
<v Speaker 1>of money that could have been a lot of water

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:08.960
<v Speaker 1>rather that could have flowed from northern California to southern

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:12.400
<v Speaker 1>California was not. We saw more mistakes than you'd ever

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:15.879
<v Speaker 1>dream of. They weren't prepared for this, even though they

0:26:15.920 --> 0:26:19.040
<v Speaker 1>knew Santa ana wins were predictable than wildfires were predictable.

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:22.600
<v Speaker 1>They didn't practice the basic science of forestry. Okay, so

0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:25.880
<v Speaker 1>people lose their homes. Now people would like to some

0:26:25.960 --> 0:26:28.359
<v Speaker 1>of them rebuild their homes. Some of them are getting

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the hell out of dodge. But the city of Los

0:26:30.600 --> 0:26:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Angeles get this. Since the wildfires, which seems like an

0:26:34.359 --> 0:26:38.960
<v Speaker 1>eternity ago, they have approved only four building permits to

0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:44.080
<v Speaker 1>owners to rebuild their homes following the Pacific Palisades fires.

0:26:44.840 --> 0:26:46.240
<v Speaker 2>This goes two and a half months ago.

0:26:47.359 --> 0:26:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles, LA City council Member Tracy Park expressed disappointment

0:26:52.480 --> 0:26:54.639
<v Speaker 1>with the slow progress when I hear in the community

0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:57.840
<v Speaker 1>meetings like we had today that only four permits have

0:26:57.920 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 1>been issued and we're on day seven seventy five post fire.

0:27:01.920 --> 0:27:04.640
<v Speaker 2>That is concerning to me. It should be.

0:27:04.640 --> 0:27:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Concerning to you, those of you that believe the government

0:27:08.280 --> 0:27:10.320
<v Speaker 1>will be there to help you in your life, get

0:27:10.400 --> 0:27:15.000
<v Speaker 1>rid of that ridiculous notion, and that means that everything

0:27:15.040 --> 0:27:18.960
<v Speaker 1>that they have ever touched usually goes to ruin. How's

0:27:19.000 --> 0:27:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the government done in terms of securing our borders prior

0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:25.400
<v Speaker 1>to Donald Trump? How's the government done with their lock

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:28.560
<v Speaker 1>box for Social Security and Medicaid and Medicare? Oh, that's right,

0:27:28.600 --> 0:27:32.160
<v Speaker 1>they rated it. How's the promise of Obamacare working out?

0:27:32.240 --> 0:27:35.280
<v Speaker 1>Keep your doctor plan and save on average twenty five

0:27:35.359 --> 0:27:39.360
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars per family. Why do people put their trust

0:27:39.480 --> 0:27:42.119
<v Speaker 1>and their hope and their belief that the government that

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:46.080
<v Speaker 1>has failed spectacularly, why do they want to give them

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 1>more power and control? How is your school system working

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:52.200
<v Speaker 1>out for your kids in most cities and small towns?

0:27:52.280 --> 0:27:52.880
<v Speaker 2>Not that great?

0:27:53.640 --> 0:27:56.000
<v Speaker 1>How's law and order and safety and security in your

0:27:56.000 --> 0:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>small town? Are big city but most Americans not that

0:27:59.160 --> 0:28:02.560
<v Speaker 1>great anyway? Eight hundred and nine four one, Shawn is

0:28:02.560 --> 0:28:04.320
<v Speaker 1>a number. You want to be a part of the program.

0:28:04.400 --> 0:28:09.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's save elm shall we the comments? We're

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:11.320
<v Speaker 1>going to play him in full at the top of

0:28:11.359 --> 0:28:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the hour. And this hearing yesterday about saving MPR MPBS,

0:28:17.040 --> 0:28:19.280
<v Speaker 1>I promise it might have been one of the most

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:23.160
<v Speaker 1>entertaining moments and a congressional hearing that I've heard in many,

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:23.760
<v Speaker 1>many years.

0:28:23.760 --> 0:28:24.479
<v Speaker 2>We'll get to that.

0:28:25.040 --> 0:28:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Also, there is a very very very important Supreme Court

0:28:29.200 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 1>race that will take place next Tuesday in Wisconsin. Brad Schimmel.

0:28:37.200 --> 0:28:40.640

0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:43.560
