1
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,680
Speaker 1: Good evening, America, Happy Friday. Welcome to the latest edition

2
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,520
Speaker 1: of justin News, No Noise. I'm your host, John Solomon,

3
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 1: reporting to you as always from the nation's capital, Washington,

4
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: d C. So much to take a look at today

5
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: in the world. Just a little while ago, a federal

6
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: judge ruled that the Pentagon's new rules for reporters violated

7
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: the First Amendment.

8
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,319
Speaker 2: So when for the New York Times, Though it may not.

9
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: Survive as it moves up to the court change, but

10
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: something we're watching at justinews dot com.

11
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: Be sure to go check that out.

12
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: If you're hoping for an end to the partial government

13
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 1: shutdown today, you'd be very disappointed. The Senate Democrats once again,

14
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: it's about a dozen times now blocked funding for the

15
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 1: Homeland security part meeting those long way times and the

16
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: airports are going to get worse. And those hard working

17
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: TSA agents who keep us safe on flights will continue

18
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: to pay work without any paycheck. It'll be now thirty

19
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: five plus days. What a travesty for them and for

20
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: all of us who traveled in the airspace. Send The

21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: Democrats voted against the funding for the fifth time, which

22
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: makes the current partial government shutdown tied for the longest

23
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: shutdown in the history a second longest shutdown excuse me

24
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: at thirty five days.

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: The vote to in vote culture, which.

26
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: Is the process that got there what failed in a

27
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: forty seven thirty sevens. But here's where everything could be

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 1: coming to a head. The Senator is currently expected to

29
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: break for a two week recess next Friday. Senators would

30
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: normally return to their home districts to put in FaceTime

31
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: for their constituents, especially with an election you're coming up,

32
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: that's valuable time. But Senate Majority of Lady John Tune

33
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: said not so fast. That break may not happen. If

34
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: there's no deal place to fund homeland, you guys might

35
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: have to stay here. That means the Senators here's the

36
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: worst part. Even after two terror attacks and weeks, we

37
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: still can't get funding to help stop any potential future attacks.

38
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: A lot of the agencies that are on the front

39
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: lines of terrorism on the sidelines not being able to

40
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,239
Speaker 1: get paid. With that, I'm going to turn into my

41
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 1: amazing co host Samanna head Man that you're watching a

42
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: lot of other things today, Yes.

43
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: Indeed, and on that topic, actually saying on the subject

44
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 3: of air travel to everyone out there. If you're flying

45
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 3: to Seapac next week, everyone knows Seapack is happening next week.

46
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,239
Speaker 3: A word to the wise, do not fly into Houston

47
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 3: or Austin, because I'm hearing things are quite bad there.

48
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 4: All right. I want to stay on the subject of Iran.

49
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: There's a lot of conversation about how long this is

50
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 3: going to last. Earlier today, the President was asked why

51
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 3: he claims that the US has already won the war militarily,

52
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 3: while others, like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin netanyahuu insists that

53
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 3: the war will likely need ground troops to fully topple

54
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 3: the Iranian regime. So take a listen to what the

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 3: President had to say.

56
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: Thanks, So the war was militarily won in Iran? What

57
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: did you mean of that?

58
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 5: Oh, I think we've won. We've knocked out their navy,

59
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 5: their air force, we've knocked out their anti na craft,

60
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 5: we've knocked out everything. We're roaming free. From a military standpoint,

61
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 5: all they're doing is clogging up the Strait. But from

62
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 5: a military standpoint, they're finished.

63
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 3: And while the Iranian military has dwindled to nearly nothing,

64
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 3: as President Trump remarked, the only obstacle to ending the

65
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 3: war is the strate of hormones, especially since NATO countries

66
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: refused to assist in the effort to reopen that key

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: shipping lane.

68
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 4: Here's the President on that topic.

69
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,119
Speaker 6: Viki Graham haasa for you to reconsider the America made

70
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 6: it in Spain in Germany after what they have done

71
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 6: in the free comportment.

72
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 5: Well, that deserves He's right about asking that.

73
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: And I think.

74
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 5: NATO's gone down a long way because they haven't. I mean,

75
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 5: they should be helping with the Strait. They get much

76
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 5: of their energy from the Strait of Hormus. And if

77
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 5: Lindsey Graham said that, and don't forget he was the

78
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 5: big NATO guy for a while and now he's not,

79
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 5: and a lot of senators in congressmen they would be.

80
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 5: They're very upset with the fact that NATO has done nothing.

81
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: And the President Trump pointed out a very important issue.

82
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 3: If other countries depend on the Strait of Oremus for

83
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 3: their energy, why on earth aren't they helping. While we

84
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 3: discuss this and many topics with our first guests of

85
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: the night, we are always honored to be joined by her.

86
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 3: She is Iowa Congresswoman Marionette Miller Meeks.

87
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 4: Check it out.

88
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: All right, folks, we got a great way to kick

89
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: off the show today. Joining us from the great state

90
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,840
Speaker 1: of Iowa, Congress Women, Mary Atte Miller Meeks, Congress Women,

91
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: great to have you back on the show.

92
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 7: Good to be back. How are you both doing.

93
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: We're doing well. We know your state has suffered a

94
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: great loss. Some of the brave men and women killed

95
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: in action in the Iran operation are coming home. Tell

96
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: us a little bit about at this moment where we

97
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: are in the Iran operation. Sometimes to read the mainstream meding,

98
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 1: you think it's going badly. Then you listen to the

99
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: actual data. Seems like we're winning pretty big well.

100
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 8: It reminds me of the Vietnam War, when militarily people

101
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 8: felt we won the tet offensive and we had turned

102
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 8: the tides in the war, but politically we had not,

103
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,559
Speaker 8: and so that unfairness and coverage led to a change

104
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 8: in public opinion. In this case, people are certainly concerned

105
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 8: about is this another Iraq? But when you look at

106
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 8: everything that has happened, the degradation of launchers, the degradation

107
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 8: of missiles, the expenditure of missiles, the degradation of naval

108
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 8: vessels and ships, you know, military infrastructure. We have vastly

109
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 8: destroyed that infrastructure and capacity for Iran to strike back,

110
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 8: including strike back and allies in the Middle East, and

111
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 8: their last efforts are to prohibit ships going through the

112
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 8: Strait of Hormouse, which we know is problematic for a

113
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 8: variety of reasons. The United States and President Trump has

114
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 8: guaranteed passage of ships, provided insurance, which put Lloyd's of

115
00:05:55,880 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 8: London in a challenging position. But militarily it looks like

116
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 8: this as a much shorter conflict than had anticipated.

117
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 7: Certainly very risky. I don't diminish the risk.

118
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 8: And as you said, tomorrow is the funeral of two

119
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 8: of our National guards men who are excuse me, are

120
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 8: reservists who were killed in action. And it's very sobering

121
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 8: here in Iowa, very real. But as a military person,

122
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 8: I can tell you that for forty seven years Iran

123
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 8: has been at war with US. They have killed US

124
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 8: soldiers numerous places Coobar Towers, Marine Corps barracks and Lebanon,

125
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 8: two embassies which our embassies are guarded by our Marine Corps.

126
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 8: The USS coal brating and humiliating our military, and your

127
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 8: words have to mean more otherwise you continue to be

128
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 8: attacked both here and abroad no deterrence.

129
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 3: Well, and like you, I speak to a lot of

130
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: service members who support this conflict.

131
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 4: Because they know of what you've been speaking of.

132
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 3: But there are a few but very loud people in

133
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 3: the media space, particularly podcasters, who I think are really

134
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 3: trying to highlight the disunity in the Republican Party in

135
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 3: your state.

136
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 4: When you have flag.

137
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 3: Draped coffins coming home, I can imagine that that has

138
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 3: an effect on public opinion.

139
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 4: But as you talk to your.

140
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 3: Constituents, particularly heading into the summer of a midterm, do

141
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 3: you get the sense that disunity abounds or is it

142
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 3: just a minority.

143
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 8: I think that there are very loud voices in people

144
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 8: trying to influence the dialogue and undermine this president and

145
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 8: undermine our actions in our military. We certainly have seen

146
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 8: this happen before in the United States. This is an

147
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 8: action that was necessary, And even on January third, when

148
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 8: the US and President Trump had a brilliant military operation

149
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 8: to extradite Maduro back to the United States to face

150
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 8: criminal charges for which he was indicted, I had mentioned

151
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 8: at that time that this was also going to be

152
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 8: a signal to Iran and China and Russia and Cuba,

153
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 8: and that we may see things change, especially in Cuba

154
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 8: and Iran as well as Venezuela. And I think that

155
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 8: you're certainly seeing that. And you can see our Middle

156
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 8: Eastern allies, the Arab countries came to the support of

157
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 8: the United States early on. They do not want a

158
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 8: nuclear armed Iran. And again, for seven presidents in my

159
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 8: lifetime has said we could not have a nuclear armed Iran.

160
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 8: But just voicing it and saying it over and over

161
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 8: and over again does not prohibit military weapons. We allowed

162
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 8: Iran to avoid sanctions on oil production. President Biden sent

163
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 8: them money. President Obama sent them money. They were violating

164
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 8: even the International Atomic Energy Commission, they weren't allowed to inspect.

165
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 8: So they were violating the terms of JCPOA that Obama

166
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 8: had agreed to. They weren't slowing down in the development

167
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 8: of nuclear weapons.

168
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 7: That was their goal.

169
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,079
Speaker 8: And they already had sixty percent highly enriched unite uranium.

170
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 8: And it's a very short timeline from sixty percent to

171
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 8: ninety percent, which is weapons great and if and President

172
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 8: Trump in negotiations offered them nuclear energy for power that

173
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 8: the United States would help to facilitate, but they rejected that.

174
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 8: They declined to reject that they wanted a nuclear weapon.

175
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 8: And you know, if you have peaceful purposes for nuclear energy,

176
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 8: you don't have to be two hundred to three hundred

177
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 8: feet underground in a mountain hiding it and not letting

178
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 8: the IAEA do proper inspections.

179
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 1: Such a common sense thing, right, exactly right. If you

180
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,559
Speaker 1: have nothing to hide, why are you hiding it? It makes

181
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 1: all the sense in the world. I want to turn

182
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: to the Save Act, one of the top priorities in

183
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: the agenda for both Republicans and President Trump Congression.

184
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: Republicans through the House, no problem.

185
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: The Senate a little bit trickier, but several senators we

186
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 1: talked to Senator Ran Paul, Senator Ron Johnson, Senator Kennedy

187
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: separately making comments that there may be some negotiation and

188
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: that the key elements of this will get in either

189
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: in a recision package or me in an omnibus bill,

190
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 1: or in a skinnier version of the Save America Act.

191
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 2: What do you think about that opportunity.

192
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 8: I think, as you said, we have passed the Save

193
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 8: Act to Save America Act twice through the House. There

194
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 8: is tremendous bipartisan support among the American people for voter ID. Again,

195
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 8: it's a very common sense reform. In Iowa, we took

196
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 8: the hard votes to do voter ID when I was

197
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,559
Speaker 8: in a Senate district that was not a favorable Senate

198
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 8: district for Republicans. Took those hard votes put voter ID

199
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 8: within our election integrity. We had several election integrity bills,

200
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 8: and every single time more people have voted, so it

201
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 8: doesn't seem like it reduced voter turnout at all, and

202
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 8: people had more confidence in their elections.

203
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 7: So this is common sense. But I think you have people.

204
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 8: We may have a majority in the House and the

205
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 8: Senate and a Republican president in the White House, but

206
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 8: you have to have sixty votes in the Senate. So

207
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 8: putting the Save America Act or major portions of it

208
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 8: in a reconciliation bill or in our year in f

209
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 8: y twenty seven appropriations bill, a must pass bill, that

210
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,080
Speaker 8: seems to be a very logical step to take in

211
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 8: something that I would agree with in support being put

212
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 8: in other must pass legislation. I am in favor of

213
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 8: doing another reconciliation bill, not only for the Save America Act,

214
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 8: but for also some of the healthcare things that we

215
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 8: want to do, and some of the actions to take

216
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 8: against fraud perpetrated by illegal immigrants in our benefit system,

217
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 8: whether it's Medicaid or food stamps or other benefit systems

218
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 8: as we have seen in States.

219
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 3: Partner's Woman is something that's very important to you and

220
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 3: other Iowans.

221
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:48,600
Speaker 4: The Farm Bill.

222
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 3: I know that you have been shouting from the rooftops

223
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 3: about this, and now it's being amplified by the President

224
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 3: of the United States. We don't want farmers left in limbo.

225
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,439
Speaker 3: Talked to us about the implications of its passage.

226
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 8: Well, we passed significant portions of the Farm Bill in

227
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 8: our first reconciliation bill, the Working Families Tax cut last

228
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 8: year last term in twenty three twenty four.

229
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 7: The Farm Bill.

230
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 8: We had it done in the House, but the Senate,

231
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 8: which was controlled by Democrats, did not do text. So

232
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 8: we could not get the Farm Bill passed in twenty

233
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 8: three twenty four because the Senate Democrat in charge of

234
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 8: the Ag Committee didn't get it done, didn't do text.

235
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 8: So we want to get the Farm Bill done. Cherre

236
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 8: Thompson has worked very diligently, worked with farmers, worked with

237
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 8: all States, and we really need to get this done,

238
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 8: especially with the stress in the farm and the ag

239
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,600
Speaker 8: economy right now. So we wholeheartedly agree with the President.

240
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 8: Let's get this done and move it across the finish line.

241
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be a big moment for all the middle

242
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: of the country, which is what I think a lot

243
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: of people look for. Another big win. Congress Woman, great

244
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,119
Speaker 1: to have you on the show today.

245
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:52,880
Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us.

246
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 7: Well, great to be with both of you.

247
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 8: And I just want to say that Amanda, I know,

248
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 8: is very very keen on animals and animal safety and

249
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 8: the bow.

250
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:03,839
Speaker 7: Wow actual Yes passed.

251
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 8: Yesterday to tackle animal cruelty. In the state of Iowa.

252
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 8: We have passed significant legislation on animal cruelty cruelty, and

253
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 8: so this is a common sense thing that if you're

254
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 8: trafficking illegal drugs and fit and nil and a service

255
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:22,319
Speaker 8: animal is harmed, or a law enforcement animal is harmed

256
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 8: or you abuse them.

257
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 7: That there need to be penalties for that.

258
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 8: And if you're coming across the border illegally with drugs

259
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 8: human trafficking and you abuse and harm and animal, you

260
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 8: got to be deported right back across the border back

261
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 8: to where you came from.

262
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 7: And fully support that.

263
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 8: And you know, I'm wondering if PETA and the you know,

264
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 8: the other animal rights organizations are come out, come out

265
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 8: and support of this bill, common sense legislation.

266
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure they are itching to come out and support

267
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:49,320
Speaker 3: of this bill.

268
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 4: That's what they do.

269
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, important stuff.

270
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: As always, Congress women, thank you so much for joining us.

271
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 7: Thank you.

272
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: There are hearts and gondolences to those families in Iowa.

273
00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 7: Thank you.

274
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 2: All Right, folks, we got a.

275
00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: Quick commercial break. We're gonna stay on the border for

276
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: another topic now. When we come back to the commercial break,

277
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 1: the former acting Commissioner of the US Customs and Border

278
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: Protection Agency, our good friend Mark Morgan, hop next after

279
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: these messages. Hey, folks, would you believe me if I

280
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 1: told you that high blood pressure is the number one

281
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: risk factor for mortality.

282
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 2: It's true. Half of adults, myself included, have it.

283
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: And everyone knows someone in their life who deals with

284
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: high blood pressure. And here's the dangerous part. It doesn't hurt,

285
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: it just quietly damages over time. There is a lot

286
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: in life we can't control. Your blood pressure isn't one

287
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: of them. This isn't guesswork. Grab a home blood pressure commnitor,

288
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: Drink one twenty life daily and check your numbers. Many

289
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: people see improvements in as little as two weeks, which

290
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 1: is exactly why the product has become so popular. It

291
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,280
Speaker 1: fits into real life, and the powdered version has just

306

Speaker 3: President Trump has been making good on his promise so

307
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 3: far to get the southern border under control and up

308
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 3: the rate of deportations, especially of illegal alien criminals in

309
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 3: this country. But there's always room for improvement, and our

310
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 3: next guest has a plan to get to one million

311
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 3: deportations this year. And he's one of the rare people

312
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 3: in the country who can also speak on former FBI

313
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: Director James Comey getting subpoenas, so joining us now to

314
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 3: talk about all of that and more is former Acting

315
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 3: Commissioner of the US Customs and Border Protection as well

316
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 3: as former FBI special agent, and he's also a partner

317
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 3: in the mass deportation coalition. Mark Morgan, Mark, great to

318
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 3: see you, Thanks for being here, Mandon.

319
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 9: John, thanks for having us always.

320
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 3: We love having you and I have been championing at

321
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: the bit to get your opinion. Senator Mark Wayne Mullen

322
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 3: making his way through the confirmation process, a full floor.

323
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 4: Vote coming up soon.

324
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 3: But what expertise do you think he brings to the role.

325
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 4: Is he the right man for the job?

326
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, I would if we would have

327
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 10: had this discussion a year ago and you would have

328
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 10: told me that John Fetterman was going to be the

329
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 10: deciding vote to push this forward, I would have taken

330
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:35,840
Speaker 10: that bet and thought I was going to be a

331
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 10: rich man. So you know, the other thing that I'll

332
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 10: say about the hearings, unfortunately, is they're heavy on theatrics,

333
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 10: very light on substance. So I think this is the

334
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 10: America's opportunity to really learn about someone who's going to

335
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 10: lead one of the largest departments in our country.

336
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 9: And it's unfortunate that it's more theatrics than substance. So

337
00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 9: there's still a lot we have to learn about him.

338
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 10: But the one thing, the one strength that I think

339
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 10: he does bring is he does know Congress and he

340
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 10: has apparently allies on both sides of the aisle. Look,

341
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 10: DHS is a contentious mission, it's an important mission, it's

342
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 10: a complex mission. And having that support and knowing people

343
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 10: in Congress, that's definitely going to be a positive.

344
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: So there are reports in the last couple of days,

345
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,200
Speaker 1: Mark that either President Trump or people around him think

346
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 1: that maybe some of the optics of the deportation process.

347
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 2: Have been bad.

348
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean the mission of deportation is bad. What

349
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,760
Speaker 1: advice You and I have had these great conversations about

350
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: what deportation two point zero looks like. I think you

351
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 1: have the best most comprehensive plan out there. What should

352
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 1: the new Homeland Secretary do to implement a steady stream

353
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,520
Speaker 1: of people exiting this country without maybe giving the Democrats

354
00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: so much ammunition?

355
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 10: God, Look, you summarized the best. You said it better

356
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 10: than I could. If I had to miss with the President,

357
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 10: I would lead off with what you did. Look, we

358
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 10: can't be we can't allow how we carried out the

359
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 10: lawful mission of removing people that are here illegally. We

360
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 10: cannot let that distracts We must continue on the mission

361
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 10: of lawfully carrying out and removing people that are here

362
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,280
Speaker 10: in the country illegally. Look, I think we all agree

363
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 10: there were some challenges with the how Look, that person

364
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 10: in charge is gone. Now let's move past that. But

365
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 10: let's stay later the focus on what we should be doing.

366
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 10: And that's why part of this mass Deportation coalition. We

367
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 10: can do this without the chaos. We can do this

368
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 10: without the pushback and notoriety that we've been seeing for

369
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 10: the past year. And John, you and I talk and

370
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 10: although the first year what we call Phase one, the

371
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 10: mass Deportation Correalition, was.

372
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 9: It was effective. I mean, if you look today versus

373
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 9: a year ago, there are fewer criminal illegal aliens walking

374
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 9: the streets.

375
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 10: That's a fact. And because of President Trump's effort the

376
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 10: past year, our city streets streets are safer, that's also fact.

377
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 10: But what we're saying is if we're only gonna we're

378
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 10: ultimately going to de incentivize illegal migration and put integrity

379
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,200
Speaker 10: back in the package of immigration laws. We must move

380
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 10: beyond a small subset of those that are in the

381
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 10: country illegally. We're calling that Phase two. We need to

382
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 10: go after the one point five million illegal aliens with

383
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 10: final orders of removal, the hundreds of thousands of visa overstakes.

384
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 10: We have to aggressively go after US employers who knowingly

385
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 10: and willingly hire illegal aliens so they can pay them

386
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 10: cheap wages to marginalize and already marginalize US born workforce.

387
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,199
Speaker 10: That has to be done. We have to open up

388
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 10: the aptture and we can do it. And so we're

389
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 10: going to release a playbook here in the next ten

390
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 10: days or two weeks or so where we're going to

391
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 10: explain the why this needs to continue to happen, why

392
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 10: we need to move to phase two, and more importantly,

393
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 10: we're going to lay out a series of recommendations on

394
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 10: how that can be done, how we can reach that

395
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 10: one million legitimate apprehensions removals in interior within a year.

396
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 3: Incredible, well, unless we forget under Barack Obama, it was

397
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,840
Speaker 3: what three point one million deportations.

398
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 4: Now that was over the course of his entire.

399
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 3: Term, but the role numbers he deported more at least

400
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:13,160
Speaker 3: at this point in President Trump's term. Let me ask

401
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,199
Speaker 3: you about the media's role in this, because there is

402
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 3: clearly a microscope from the.

403
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 4: Media on this. If do you think that the media

404
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 4: could turn their attention.

405
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 3: To something else, sometimes I doubt our ability to walk

406
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 3: in cheo gum At the same time, but if we

407
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: take so much attention off of it, then that not

408
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 3: only allows these agents to be more effective, but it

409
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 3: also keeps the country from thinking that this is the

410
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 3: only thing happening in the world.

411
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 10: Amanda, you're again I could have said about You're spot

412
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 10: on both of those counts.

413
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 9: Right.

414
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 10: If we can take and remove the chaos that we

415
00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 10: saw in Chicago and Minneapolis, well then it's not going

416
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 10: to We're going to be able to remove some of

417
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 10: that rhetoric and that false narrative from the left and

418
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 10: Democratic Party, because again, they what we're doing is we're

419
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 10: kind of teeing it up for them toocus on the how,

420
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 10: right instead of the fact of the why we need

421
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,680
Speaker 10: to conduct mass deportation and the other thing that I'll

422
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:10,200
Speaker 10: say is they've been very effective at some of the Republicans,

423
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 10: some of the Conservatives that the media and what the

424
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 10: Democrats are doing and the rhetoric it's winning. It's pushing

425
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,440
Speaker 10: them back in the corner that you know, we're hearing

426
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 10: reports and I know you've reported on it, that we're

427
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 10: wanting to walk away even from the phrase mass deportation.

428
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 10: I remember in the R and C when President Trump

429
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 10: spoke and others like Tom Holman and out in the audience,

430
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:35,119
Speaker 10: there were resigns mass deportation twenty twenty four. Look, and

431
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 10: poll after poll is showing, don't believe the polls that

432
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 10: the liberal media and the Democrats are showing that the

433
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 10: Accountability Project under the mass coalition of mass deportation coalition.

434
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,120
Speaker 9: We just sanctioned a new poll by McLoughlin that.

435
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,840
Speaker 10: Shows still the over like eighty seven percent of those

436
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 10: that voted for Trump still want mass deportation.

437
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 9: So don't believe the lie.

438
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about something that mystifies me

439
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: and I think others who spend some time looking at

440
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 1: the law. We have sanctuary cities, we have sanctuary states.

441
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: We have prisons in jails and sheriffs that won't turn

442
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 1: over illegal aliens under order to leave the country, and

443
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: we have nonprofits that are bringing in and harboring those

444
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,920
Speaker 1: illegal aliens. There's a law, it's kind of generally called

445
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:28,160
Speaker 1: the illegal Alien harboring Law. It says that anyone knowing

446
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,040
Speaker 1: or in a reckless disregard to the fact that there's

447
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: an illegal alien in their presence, if they try to

448
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: conceal harbor or shield from detection, or attempts to conceal

449
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 1: harbor or shield from detections, such alien in any place,

450
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 1: including a building or by means of transportation, can be

451
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 1: prosecuted as a federal felony. Why hasn't the Trump administration

452
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: used that to go after sanctuary city, sanctuary states, and

453
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: the nonprofits that are part of illegal migration, inc.

454
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 10: But I think that's a fair reas rational question that

455
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 10: they should address. John, think about this, and you and I, Matt,

456
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 10: we've talked about this for several years. Think about this.

457
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 10: This isn't this should not be an extreme view. You're

458
00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:16,959
Speaker 10: in the country illegally, you commit another crime against an

459
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,439
Speaker 10: America and local law enforcement arrest you, and that local

460
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 10: law enforcement, because they're in a sanctuous city, refuses to

461
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 10: work with ice to remove the criminal illegal alien. How

462
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,679
Speaker 10: can us wanting to do that be viewed as a

463
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 10: radical opinion? That's insanity? And so I believe to your

464
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 10: point if you're asking me, I think DOJ should aggressively

465
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 10: start going after some of these entities that are absolutely

466
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 10: violating the law. Is you just outlined? I mean, we've

467
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 10: got to fight fire with fire. We can no longer

468
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 10: let this go on, because this really is it's beyond stupid,

469
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 10: it's insanity, and it's jeopardizing the safety and nasal security

470
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 10: of our country.

471
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Mark, before we let you go, I want to

472
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 3: bring it on into the conversation because we've seen what

473
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 3: four terrorist attacks in the last three weeks here on

474
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 3: US shores, and so everybody is thinking about sleeper sales

475
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 3: and concern that those are going to ramp up an increase.

476
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 3: You're the perfect person ask about this because of your

477
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 3: position at CBP.

478
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 4: How concerned are.

479
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 3: You that this is going to continue and possibly even accelerate.

480
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 9: Oh, I think it is. I'm very concerned.

481
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 10: So let's quickly look to the FBI and the greater

482
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 10: US intelligence community. They have said that the heightened potential

483
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 10: of a terrorist attack is greater than it's ever been

484
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 10: since nine to eleven. They refer to it as a

485
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 10: rogues gallery of terrorist organizations that are calling upon individuals

486
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 10: to attack America, and they're able to do so through

487
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 10: a decentralized methodology, meaning that the are trying to get

488
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 10: people to self rectalize that are already here and to

489
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 10: move from ideology to radicalization. Happens at the speed of

490
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:00,479
Speaker 10: social media, and then you're throwing an Internet being an

491
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 10: event like epic Fury. You can move from that radicalization

492
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 10: to action literally overnight, and look real quick.

493
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 9: I believe facts matter.

494
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 10: During the Biden administration, we received and let in hundreds

495
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 10: of thousands of illegal aliens that we call special interest

496
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 10: aliens that come from countries that we know sponsor harbord

497
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 10: facilitate terrorism to include wait for it, Iran. We also

498
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,360
Speaker 10: know that we encountered over four hundred illegal aliens on

499
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 10: the Terris watch list. The four years of the first

500
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 10: Trump administration. That number was around five or six. So again,

501
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 10: I keep saying this loud and clear. I hope somebody

502
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 10: finally listens. But it's not if or when the lowe

503
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 10: wolf offender or sleeper cell is here. It's already here.

504
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 2: That's so important. Mark before we let you go real quickly.

505
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: Birthright citizenship before the Supreme Court April first, the big

506
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 1: arguments this week, the new Juliska Cartel, a Jeleisica generation

507
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: cartel announced a US citizen is its new drug kingpin.

508
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,400
Speaker 1: He got his citizenship to earth right citizenship by having

509
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: his mother good birth to him here in the United States.

510
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: He's a Mexican national now probably one of the most

511
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: notorious drug lords in the world. What does that say

512
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: to the court? Is it exhibit A in the Supreme

513
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 1: Court arguments?

514
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 9: Yeah? Look, I think so.

515
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 10: You mentioned earlier the last attacks that we've seen right

516
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 10: now naturalized citizens. So it's something we don't talk about

517
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 10: enough about. John, is assimilation simply because you were born

518
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 10: here and look, albeit through illegal means, which again I

519
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 10: don't believe that was our forefileders principle, that you could

520
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 10: violate our law and then benefit from a violation. But

521
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 10: more importantly, is it just simply because you're born here

522
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 10: does not mean that you fully assimilated and does not

523
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 10: mean your allegiance is to this country. So it's a

524
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 10: righteous reaching for the Trump administration to push back on.

525
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 3: Absolutely and just look at the models of other countries

526
00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 3: who have done away with us as well.

527
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

528
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 3: Former Acting Commissioner of US Hessans and Border Protection Foreigner

529
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 3: FBI special agent and friend of our show, Mark Moore,

530
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 3: and thanks so much for being.

531
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:06,680
Speaker 4: With us you got thanks both, absolutely absolutely. I love

532
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 4: it coming out next.

533
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 3: How economically free are we in America? Would it be

534
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 3: shocking to learn that our neighbors to the north, Canada

535
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 3: score higher on an economic freedom index?

536
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 4: It's true. We'll explain why after this.

537
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: Hey, folks, I used to think a mattress with just

538
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: a piece of furniture until I got my ghost Bed.

539
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: When I bought my first mattress from ghost Bet, it

540
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 1: was a game changer.

541
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:30,840
Speaker 2: Why.

542
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,639
Speaker 1: Because ghost Bed doesn't build mattresses like furniture. They build

543
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 1: engineered sleep systems. Their beds are serious health equipment, beds

544
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: designed for relief and recovery, not looks, not fluff. Your

545
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 1: body should be healing while you sleep, not fighting for comfort.

546
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,359
Speaker 1: I notice a difference right away if you're waking up stiff,

547
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: tossing and turning, sleeping hot, even reaching for a pain

548
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: reliever before bed, hoping tonight's going to be different. Guess

549
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: to what that may not be aging. It could be

550
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 1: your mattress talking to you. And here's another thing I

551
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: love about ghost bet. You get one hundred and one

552
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 1: nights to try it at home. If you don't feel

553
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 1: the difference, you can send it back risk free. Ghostped

00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 1: Welcome back America, joining us now the acting Director in

559
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: chief Economists at the Heritage Foundation, one of the great

560
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 1: economic thinkers in our country today.

561
00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 2: EJ. And TONYJ. Great to have you back on.

562
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 11: John, my pleasure.

563
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 2: Thanks for having me again.

564
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: I love so much of the work that Heritage does

565
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 1: because it gives you data points and data matters in

566
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: an era of spin in short tweets. You just recently

567
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: put out the thirty second edition of the Index of

568
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: Economic Freedom, The US ranked twenty second.

569
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 2: How's that happen? How's the Land of the Free end

570
00:28:58,880 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: up at number twenty two?

571
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 9: Great?

572
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 11: Great question, you know, unfortunately this is only the first

573
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 11: year where we've had an increase in the last six years.

574
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 11: In other words, in the previous five years, we were

575
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 11: actually seeing declines year after year. Now, obviously a lot

576
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 11: of that had to do with the Biden administration, but

577
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 11: we even had a decline in twenty twenty and that

578
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 11: was because of COVID obviously and some of the draconian

579
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 11: measures that were implemented that year.

580
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 9: But whatever the.

581
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 11: Case, I think the real unsung hero of the last

582
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,760
Speaker 11: year has been the deregulatory efforts of the Trump administration,

583
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 11: where you know, they actually got rid of a record

584
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:41,680
Speaker 11: number of burdensome regulations, cut a record amount of bureaucratic

585
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 11: red tape, and that is really helping to not only

586
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 11: increase economic growth and get those growth rates up, but

587
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 11: it's also making people more free. It's increasing the number

588
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 11: of options you're going to have for things like the

589
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,360
Speaker 11: kind of car you want to drive, where you want

590
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 11: to work, what kind of appliances you want to be

591
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 11: able to have in your home. All of these different

592
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 11: things were seriously limited because of the kind of bureaucratic

593
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,840
Speaker 11: overreach that happened during the Biden years, and it's wonderful

594
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 11: progress to see those things reversed.

595
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I mean this is it makes me go fall. Canada,

596
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: the country who beat d Bank, hundreds of men and women.

597
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 4: Who just drove their trucks to Ottawa.

598
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:27,840
Speaker 3: That's the country that is ahead of us, along with

599
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 3: twenty others I suppose. So if we stay on this

600
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 3: trajectory of deregulation, just the deregulation alone, how close can

601
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 3: we get to number one when it comes to economic creedom?

602
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 2: Great? Great question.

603
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 11: We can certainly continue to move several points up in

604
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 11: the index, particularly when you have some of those who

605
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 11: are currently ahead of us, like Canada that you mentioned,

606
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 11: America's hat. You know, they are essentially falling in the index.

607
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 11: And the reason for that, and the reason why I

608
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 11: think they're going to fall next year, is because of

609
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 11: what's going on right now in that nation and also

610
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 11: several others where they aren't deregulating, they're adding regulatory burdens.

611
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 11: You have nations that are actually increasing not just regulatory

612
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 11: but tax burdens as well. They're becoming more bureaucratic, not less.

613
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 11: Government is getting more involved in the private sector and

614
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 11: is decreasing people's economic freedom. But then on top of that,

615
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 11: you look at so many of these different countries where

616
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 11: they've really kind of I guess you could say gone

617
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,640
Speaker 11: woke in terms of their judicial system. And the judicial

618
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 11: system is no longer there strictly to do things like

619
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 11: protect people's property rights, to enforce contract law, but instead

620
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 11: it is increasingly trying to engage in these kinds of

621
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 11: weird social engineering on behalf of left wing causes. And

622
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 11: the judicial system is actually in certain cases, and I

623
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 11: guess the most extreme case look at North Korea or

624
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 11: the Chinese Communist Party places like that, the judicial system

625
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,760
Speaker 11: is now just another arm of government bureaucracy and is

626
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 11: really a way for the government to try to force

627
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 11: its will onto people. Again, as those different countries that

628
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 11: are ahead of us unfortunately go down that route, they

629
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 11: will fall in the rankings and the US will continue

630
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 11: moving up.

631
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to turn to the Iran operation. Obviously,

632
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: when war happens, energy prices typically when the wars in

633
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,040
Speaker 1: the Middle East go up. There's a piece difven at

634
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: the end of this. But right now, how bad can

635
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: fuel prices get? And where will we be in September

636
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 1: when people start thinking about who am I going to

637
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: vote for in the fall election?

638
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 11: Great great questions, John, and look I got to say,

639
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 11: there have been so many talking heads out there saying

640
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 11: one of two things, either one, oil's going to two hundred,

641
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 11: or on the other hand, they're saying no, no, oil

642
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 11: is going to be back down to seventy in no

643
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 11: time at all, And they're.

644
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 9: Speaking as as if they know.

645
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 2: They don't.

646
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 11: Nobody has any idea, John, And the reason for that

647
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 11: is because we don't know what's going to happen in

648
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 11: the region in the next six hours, let alone six

649
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,240
Speaker 11: days or six weeks. We just don't know. That is

650
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 11: why you have had such a extreme volatility in both

651
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,000
Speaker 11: crude oil and natural gas markets the last several weeks.

652
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 11: We simply don't know. Just look at the escalation that

653
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:12,440
Speaker 11: happened just the last few days where Israel struck targets

654
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 11: natural gas targets and I Ran and then i Ran

655
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 11: responded by striking natural gas targets throughout the region. Well,

656
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 11: the result of that was even more turbulence and even

657
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 11: higher prices in natural gas markets. Obviously, though before these

658
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 11: strikes occurred, that wasn't priced in. So again, you just

659
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 11: don't know so much of where oil and natural gas

660
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 11: are going to go in terms of price. John is

661
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 11: just dependent on two things. Number one, how long is

662
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 11: the conflict gonna last, and number two, how much damage

663
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 11: is going to be done to infrastructure during that time.

664
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 11: Case in point Cutter came out with some data just

665
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 11: within the last I think thirty six hours saying that

666
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 11: it is going to take between three and five years

667
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 11: to fix some of the damage that has been done

668
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 11: to some of their energy infrastructure. So that represents not

669
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 11: just a production that is temporarily taken offline because the

670
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 11: strait of Horror Moves is closed, but it represents production

671
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,560
Speaker 11: that has taken off line for many years to come

672
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 11: because of actual physical damage. So again, which way oil

673
00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 11: is going to go is going to depend on how

674
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 11: long this conflict lasts.

675
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 4: EJ Before we let you go.

676
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 3: A few years ago, New York Governor Kathy Hochel was

677
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 3: saying to wealthy New Yorkers, if you don't want to

678
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 3: participate here, if you don't want to contribute here, say

679
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 3: Andara have a nice life in Florida and Texas well.

680
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 3: Just earlier this week, she was singing a very different tune,

681
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 3: seemingly begging New Yorkers to come back from the Sunshine

682
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 3: or the Lone Star States to New York. What do

683
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 3: these people not get about taxing people into oblivion because

684
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:45,919
Speaker 3: now they're begging them to come back.

685
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 11: Well, well, well, I actually wrote the study on New

686
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 11: York tax increases. This was about four or five years ago,

687
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:57,400
Speaker 11: and it was done at the time because of the

688
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 11: latest round of tax increases that we were seeing in

689
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,800
Speaker 11: New York City. And what I demonstrated in that research

690
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 11: was that you were going to see hundreds of thousands

691
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 11: of more people leave New York State in the years

692
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,600
Speaker 11: to come. And sure enough, that's exactly what's happened. In fact,

693
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 11: the numbers have essentially been right on the money. What

694
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 11: I'm getting at here is the fact that these public

695
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 11: policies have very real consequences. People are leaving these high tax,

696
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 11: over regulated states New York, California, Illinois, and where are

697
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 11: they going. They're going to places like Texas, Tennessee, Florida

698
00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,239
Speaker 11: and other states that again have low tax rates and

699
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 11: low regulatory burdens. And what these blue state governors are

700
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:44,080
Speaker 11: now realizing, very very painfully is the fact that their

701
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 11: tax base has been so completely eroded by high tax

702
00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 11: rates that now they can't pay their bills. And it

703
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:56,600
Speaker 11: means the only thing left to squeeze, so to speak,

704
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,120
Speaker 11: is the middle class, and that is where they're going

705
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,800
Speaker 11: to have to start extracting the next round of revenue.

706
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,759
Speaker 11: And that's bad news for middle class families who live

707
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 11: in those states.

708
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, spend more, lose more.

709
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: I have a funny feeling Virginia may be the next

710
00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: place where we start to see economic refugees. EJ and Tony.

711
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 1: What a great opportunity to having the show. Thanks for

712
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: joining us today.

713
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 11: My pleasure. Thank you for having me.

714
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: A great opportunity, my friend movies love talking. All right, folks,

715
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:23,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna take a qui commercial break.

716
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 2: Let me come back.

717
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: We're gonna explain why my new bed is not a

718
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: piece of furniture. My mattress is not a piece of furniture.

719
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 1: It's a sleep engineering system. I'm gonna prove it to

720
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,400
Speaker 1: you right after these messages.

721
00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 4: Welcome back, everybody.

722
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,680
Speaker 3: Most people don't think about their mattress until pain forces

723
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 3: them to stop. Thinking about your mattress as furniture. You

724
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 3: spend a third of your life on it. That makes

725
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,800
Speaker 3: it one of the most important pieces of health equipment

726
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 3: that you own. Today, we are talking about why just okay,

727
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,120
Speaker 3: sleep may actually be driving your frequent chiropractor visits or

728
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 3: taking tail and all or ibuprofen before bed hoping to

729
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 3: sleep better or wake.

730
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 4: Up with less pain and stiffness.

731
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,319
Speaker 3: So joining us now to talk about this is the

732
00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 3: CEO of ghost Bed, Mark Werner Mark.

733
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 4: Great to have you here.

734
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,240
Speaker 6: Great, thank you for having ghost Bed tonight. Hello Amanda

735
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:20,880
Speaker 6: and John.

736
00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely great to see you all right. I sleep on

737
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 3: my back like a mummy. Give me a piece of

738
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 3: plywood to lay on and I am perfectly happy. My

739
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 3: husband sleeps on his side. He doesn't like a firm mattress.

740
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 3: Is there a solution with ghost.

741
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 6: Bed, There definitely is. So we've kind of pioneered the

742
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 6: split King adjustable, So it's two adjustable bases and then

743
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 6: two mattresses that each person could pick out their own kind.

744
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 6: So if you want a super cooling one that's firmer,

745
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 6: and your partner wants a medium cooling that's a little softer,

746
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 6: we've got the solution. And with those adjustable bases, the

747
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,560
Speaker 6: head goes up, the flot goes up, you've got anti

748
00:37:56,600 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 6: store features, you've got massage, you've got life, you've got

749
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 6: USB connectors, so it's a great setup. And what's been happening.

750
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 6: I think it's up to twenty percent of the country

751
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 6: has a what's called a sleep divorce. They literally sleep

752
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:15,439
Speaker 6: in separate bedrooms because they can't agree on the type

753
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,759
Speaker 6: of mattress that they want, and then there's a little

754
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 6: bit of sometimes noise in there. So this is something

755
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 6: that's become super popular with all age groups. And it's

756
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 6: really the Rolls Royce of a sleep experience. The split

757
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 6: King adjustable. We have them in a lot of different

758
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 6: mattress selections.

759
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 2: It's amazing that solved a lot of merinimal problems. I think.

760
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: Let me take you to something you just mentioned, the

761
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: temperature changes. It is the very first thing I noticed

762
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:44,719
Speaker 1: sleeping in the ghost bed.

763
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 2: As soon as I.

764
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,000
Speaker 1: Got it, I just felt cool or more relaxed. I

765
00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 1: didn't the fact when I got it was a warm day.

766
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: How is it that you can get a bed to

767
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,239
Speaker 1: regulate and adjust to our temperature? I mean, I'd swear

768
00:38:57,280 --> 00:38:59,759
Speaker 1: all that sounds like mystical, but then I sleptimes like

769
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:00,680
Speaker 1: it's very real.

770
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 6: So we use cooling technology in the fabric itself of

771
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 6: the cover of the mattress, and that pulls away your

772
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,440
Speaker 6: heat and then We use something called phase change material,

773
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,320
Speaker 6: which is an organic material, usually on the top layer

774
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:16,360
Speaker 6: of the foam, and often will air rate it so

775
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 6: the airflow will flow right through it. So with that

776
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 6: phase change material, it's think of like water. When it's

777
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 6: in the glass in the room, it's just room temperature,

778
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 6: it's water. When it's in the freezer, it's ice, and

779
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 6: it goes from ice to water and back and forth.

780
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 6: That's how phase change works. It pulls that heat away

781
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 6: from your person and just keeps you cool enough. And

782
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 6: people think you don't need to be down ten degrees.

783
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 6: I always give the example when you were a little

784
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 6: kid and you were had a fever or something and

785
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 6: you were selling to your mother, I'm dying here, and

786
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 6: your mother takes you temperature and it turns out, you know,

787
00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,879
Speaker 6: you're up one degree and that's the whole crisis. Well,

788
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 6: that's the same thing with sleep. If we can kind

789
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 6: of get you down a point or point and a

790
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 6: half in temperature, we've got you to a very neutral

791
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:03,319
Speaker 6: position and you're going to sleep much easier and much

792
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:06,720
Speaker 6: more relaxed, and you'll fall asleep deeper and it's just great.

793
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 6: So it's our cooling patented technology that really makes a

794
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 6: difference and is a big winner. And it applies in

795
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 6: our mattresses, it applies to our toppers, in our pillows,

796
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 6: and in our sheets as well. It's a whole system,

797
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 6: and we're very proud of it. And I slept warm

798
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 6: when I was all through my years and today, so

799
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,280
Speaker 6: I kind of was selfish trying to solve a problem

800
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 6: for myself. And I know over sixty percent of country

801
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 6: sleeps warm.

802
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:32,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

803
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,320
Speaker 3: Absolutely, And I want to ask you about the inception

804
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 3: of this because it wasn't a business idea when it

805
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 3: started off.

806
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 4: You were trying to solve a health problem, right.

807
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:41,800
Speaker 2: That's correct.

808
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 6: I did come, fortunately from the Werner Ladder family, so

809
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,840
Speaker 6: I had one hundred year family behind me that taught

810
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,839
Speaker 6: me pretty much everything I know. And I've had three

811
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 6: neck surgeries, two from the front and one from the back,

812
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 6: and I couldn't find a pillow or a mattress that

813
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 6: worked for my condition. So I decide, given that I

814
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 6: grew up in that fiberglass world, that my dad invented

815
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 6: the fiberglass ladder, so I had tremendous experience in polymer technology,

816
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,479
Speaker 6: polymer science, so I decided to make my own memory, phone,

817
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 6: pillow and topper, and that was the start of it.

818
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,640
Speaker 6: And I did it with my wife twenty five years ago,

819
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 6: and we wanted to really recreate a family business and

820
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:22,960
Speaker 6: have our children involved, and having an American made family

821
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,760
Speaker 6: business is really important to us. That's been my culture

822
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,800
Speaker 6: forever and multiple generations, and that's how we got started

823
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 6: and it's been growing ever since.

824
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:33,280
Speaker 2: Amazing.

825
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,399
Speaker 1: About a minute left before we let you go, could

826
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 1: you tell us I know what I experienced. First, what's

827
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: the most common thing people say after they buy a ghostbud,

828
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: what's the first thing they noticed?

829
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:45,319
Speaker 6: They just love it and they just love it. And

830
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 6: you know, I'm a little biased because I see it,

831
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 6: but I read all the reviews and we have over

832
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,240
Speaker 6: one hundred thousand reviews and they're on our website, ghost

833
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,840
Speaker 6: dot com, on Costco, Big Customer and Sam's and Amazon,

834
00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 6: so independent platforms. And the feed back is absolutely great.

835
00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:05,040
Speaker 6: And I consistently see feedback like this is life changing.

836
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 6: And I know it's a really high quality product and

837
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 6: an affordable price, but I love when people are telling

838
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,080
Speaker 6: me it's life changing. It helped me with fiber bilgia,

839
00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 6: or my pregnancy, or my hip problem or whatever the

840
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,600
Speaker 6: problem is, it's just an immediate acceptance. And I also

841
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,960
Speaker 6: can tell we have a very low return rate in

842
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,319
Speaker 6: our mattresses, less than five percent, so I know we're

843
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,799
Speaker 6: really hitting the right type of product for the right

844
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,239
Speaker 6: kind of customer need. So it's a win win.

845
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,359

Speaker 4: Welcome back, everybody.

855
00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:31,680
Speaker 3: The power of prayer is something our country can never forget.

856
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,919
Speaker 3: President Trump and his administration have pushed it nationally, which

857
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 3: is a welcome change to American politics in recent years,

858
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 3: and especially.

859
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 4: In these times. We need it more than ever.

860
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 3: So joining us now is someone who agrees with that sentiment,

861
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 3: and he's launched the seven fourteen initiative aimed at getting

862
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 3: Americans praying for our country. George pond.

863
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 4: George, thanks so much for being with us. Thank you

864
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 4: very much, absolutely, Sarah. President Trump.

865
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 3: Last year, following in the footsteps of our founders like

866
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 3: George Washington and also former President Abraham Lincoln, President Trump

867
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,240
Speaker 3: signed a proclamation for a national Day of Prayer.

868
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 4: And it sounds to me like you are looking to

869
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 4: expand that. Tell us about it.

870
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,879
Speaker 12: Yes, I am. And one of the reasons we want

871
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 12: to do it is because of an important date coming

872
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 12: up in ten days, March thirtieth. And the reason we

873
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 12: want to do we'd like for this proclamation, which basically

874
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 12: has two components to it. It has what Lincoln did

875
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 12: in eighteen sixty three on March thirtieth, and I can

876
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 12: read that to your excerpts of it. And then the

877
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 12: second part of it is Second Chronicle seven fourteen, which

878
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 12: basically says, if my people, who are called by my

879
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 12: name will humble themselves, pray and seek my face, turn

880
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 12: from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven.

881
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 12: I will forgive their sin and heal the land. And

882
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 12: we've been doing this for the last since May of

883
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 12: twenty twenty four. We've we've been praying every day. We

884
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 12: haven't stopped May second will be our seven one hundred

885
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 12: and fourteenth day, and we continue to pray, and a

886
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 12: lot of it has to do with basically focusing on

887
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 12: this and unpacking the principles built into this scripture based

888
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 12: on a book by George Otis Junior, and it's a

889
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 12: fifty two day study that we pray every day.

890
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: That is amazing, George, how many people are participating this,

891
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:33,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this is very exciting.

892
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 2: Okay.

893
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 12: Well, the vision that was given to me back in

894
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 12: the spring of twenty four was pretty aggressive. It was

895
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:49,719
Speaker 12: fifty states with a minimum of ten individuals, and these

896
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,720
Speaker 12: individuals the Lord laid on my heart, would be really

897
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 12: mature prayer warriors. We're not there at the fifty states,

898
00:45:56,880 --> 00:46:01,400
Speaker 12: but we're in four time zones now. Our average is

899
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 12: around twenty. Ten was the minimum that God gave me

900
00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 12: because ten is a minion and in Judea synergods, you

901
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:17,880
Speaker 12: can't really have a meeting or of worship until you

902
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 12: have ten. So that was what the Lord laid on me.

903
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 12: And it's growing also in Pakistan Pakistan, and I'm hoping

904
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:29,560
Speaker 12: to get one started soon in Israel.

905
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 2: It's amazing.

906
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 4: That's just beautiful, George.

907
00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,720
Speaker 3: I'm a praying woman, and I always pray for our president,

908
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 3: no matter if he has an R or a D

909
00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 3: next to his name. So obviously I think a lot

910
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 3: of believers across this country pray for the president. But

911
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,040
Speaker 3: when it comes to healing our land, when you find

912
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 3: yourself prostrate and you are praying, what is the area

913
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:51,799
Speaker 3: of healing that our country.

914
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:52,399
Speaker 4: Needs the most? To think?

915
00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:59,840
Speaker 12: Well, if you look at the in the Old Testament period,

916
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:06,520
Speaker 12: idolatry was something really not good in God's eyes, the

917
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:12,560
Speaker 12: spilling of innocent blood. Now more in our Christian era,

918
00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 12: as we've learned in the New Testament, especially from Saint Paul.

919
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 12: You know, he expands on the whole concept of sin

920
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,239
Speaker 12: in so many different ways. I can go into a

921
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:29,480
Speaker 12: lengthy description of it, but basically, sin is sin. It

922
00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 12: keeps us from having a relationship with the almighty Living God,

923
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 12: and he gives us a way to get back into

924
00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 12: His grace. First of all, we have in our faith

925
00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:46,560
Speaker 12: with Christianity. We have Jesus as our advocate, and through

926
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 12: his precious blood, we have access to the heavenly courts

927
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:55,160
Speaker 12: that's in Hebrews ten nineteen. But more importantly, as a

928
00:47:55,239 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 12: nation and especially the Church, which really is what being

929
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:04,720
Speaker 12: asked here in seven fourteen second chronicles. If my people,

930
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,680
Speaker 12: my people in this day and time would be the Church.

931
00:48:07,880 --> 00:48:10,720
Speaker 12: And so everything starts with the Church. And I'm talking

932
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:14,880
Speaker 12: about the broad Church, all denominations, all who professed Christ,

933
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:21,560
Speaker 12: and based on that a proclamation from the President at

934
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:26,560
Speaker 12: this particular time, and why the thirtieth of March. And

935
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 12: this is an interesting story here, when Lincoln gave that proclamation,

936
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:35,640
Speaker 12: which was basically I'm going to read some parts of it.

937
00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 12: We have been the recipients of the choicest boundaries of heaven.

938
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:43,840
Speaker 12: We've been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity.

939
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 12: We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no

940
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 12: other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God.

941
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 12: We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in

942
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 12: peace and multiplied, enriched, and strengthened us. And we have

943
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 12: vain imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts that all

944
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 12: these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue

945
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:12,720
Speaker 12: of our own. Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become

946
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,640
Speaker 12: too self sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and

947
00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 12: the preserving grace. Too proud to pray to God that

948
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 12: made us, it behooves us then to hump ourselves before

949
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 12: the offended power, and to confess our national sins and

950
00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,720
Speaker 12: pray for clemency and forgiveness.

951
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:33,320
Speaker 4: Oh George, that's beautiful.

952
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 3: I love, I love what you were doing with a

953
00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 3: seven fourteen initiative. Thank you so much for being with us,

00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 3: for spending time in prayer for this nation.

00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:44,239
Speaker 12: Thank you, sir, thank you very much.

957
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,279
Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, everybody, that's all the time we have

958
00:49:47,400 --> 00:49:47,919
Speaker 3: for this evening.

959
