1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: Third hour, Clay end Buck kicks off now play on

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: a flight back to Nashville. We were having a great

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: time over the weekend and into inauguration Monday. Great to

4
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: be in our nation's Catholic Yesterday, I think I can

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,439
Speaker 1: finally feel my fingers and toes after having to walk

6
00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,760
Speaker 1: a few miles around all the barricades and the street

7
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 1: closures and everything else. But it was worth it. I

8
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: could feel the glow the warmth from all of the

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:32,160
Speaker 1: assembled Trump voters on the streets of DC. Trump supporters

10
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: all over the place. It was like a Super Bowl

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: team celebrating the big win. And the cold wasn't going

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,520
Speaker 1: to slow us down, even though it was like six

13
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: degrees last night or something, or felt like six degrees

14
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,319
Speaker 1: last night. But it was a fantastic inauguration. I think

15
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: everybody had a really enjoyable time that I saw on

16
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: spokes to so many of you. Was great to see

17
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: a lot of you. We are so gratified, Clay and Ongen.

18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 1: People come up and say they listen to the show

19
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: every day. We're even the most gratified. And people say

20
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: they listen every day for three hours if they can,

21
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: which I really appreciate. That that's the that's like the elite,

22
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 1: elite level of Clay and Buck listening is the all

23
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: three hours every day when you can you know, sometimes

24
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: you know you got to do something. But that's what

25
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: the podcast is for. By the way, if you ever

26
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: miss it, you can listen anytime on demand Donald with

27
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app and check out the podcast. So, as

28
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: we've been discussing today, Trump has absolutely hit the accelerator

29
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: as soon as he stepped into the car, into the

30
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: driver's seat here of this presidency and is doing an

31
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 1: amazing job so far, an amazing job so far. And

32
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: I think here we go. We've got Trump signing all

33
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: these different executive orders. He has also purged this is

34
00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: New York Post, a thousand Biden appointee appointees. And this

35
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 1: is what I was saying, it's important, this is a

36
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 1: lesson from Trump's first term that people like me remember

37
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: I have voted for Donald Trump three times in presidential elections.

38
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: Right.

39
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: That just gives a sense of how long this has

40
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: been going on. Three different times. I've cast my vote

41
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: for Donald Trump twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, twenty twenty four,

42
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: and in the beginning back in twenty seventeen. I remember

43
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: he brought in people. They were outsiders, and the advantage

44
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: of being the outsider, well we all know what those were, right,

45
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: not not encumbered by the ties to the swamp and

46
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: the fealty to the bureaucratic machinery of DC and all

47
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 1: the rest of it. The downside, though, is, oh, there

48
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: are so many ways that the system, the swamp and

49
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: all the bureaucrats try to prevent the kinds of policy

50
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: change and sweeping decision making that Donald Trump needed to

51
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: get going. So that was a challenge. It was getting

52
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: the right people in place, and also not having the

53
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 1: wrong people in place, which is where this purge of

54
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: the Biden appointees I think really comes into play. Our

55
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: first day in the White House is not over yet.

56
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 1: My Presidential Personnel Office is actively in the process of

57
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: identifying and removing over a thousand presidential appointees from the

58
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: previous administration who were not aligned with our vision to

59
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: make America great again. This was on truth social Let

60
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: this serve as official notice of dismissal for these four individuals,

61
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: with many more coming soon. You're fired, you know. And

62
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: so Trump, with his usual rhetorical flourish. Here, let's give

63
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: you some of the people who are on this list

64
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 1: that are now gone. You have Brian Hook from the

65
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: Wilson Center for Scholars, Keisha Lance Bottoms from the President's

66
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 1: Expert Council, Mark Milly from the National General, Millie Right

67
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: from the National Infrastructure Advisory Council, and Jose Andres from

68
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 1: the President's Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition. He's a

69
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 1: restaurant tour in Washington, DC and very left wing and

70
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: very anti Trump. They are gone now, they are their

71
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: services are no longer needed. I know Millie's portrait has

72
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: also been removed from the Pentagon. It was up for

73
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: two weeks and it has already been taken down. So

74
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: they aren't They aren't just talking a big game this

75
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: new administration. They are taking action. And that means, as

76
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: I said, the right people and not the wrong people

77
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: in these decision making places in these agencies. Because this

78
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: was a strategy that unfortunately they used with some success

79
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: in the first Trump administration. You go back and remember this.

80
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: They they had people in the particularly places like the

81
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: State Department, initially with Rex Tellerson at the helm OH.

82
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: I should note Marco Rubio ninety nine to zero confirmation

83
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: vote for Secretary of State. So I mean as resounding

84
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: a consent from the Senate as you could possibly get

85
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: from Marco Rubio. So that's good for him. A Senate

86
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: Rubio seem to be Secretary of Rubio has had has

87
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: had quite a run, hasn't he in the Senate? And

88
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: then he ran against Trump? And I think that a

89
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: little rough there, and now he's Trumps secretary of State.

90
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: I always think this goes to a side of Trump

91
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: that doesn't get enough attention, which is the magnanimity that

92
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 1: he has toward people who want to be a part

93
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: of the mission and are willing to do what it

94
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: takes now and are willing to say I was wrong before,

95
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: I was wrong about you, sir, or I was wrong

96
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 1: on this issue, sir or both. But now I get it,

97
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: and now I want to be a part of the

98
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: team and I want to help. I mean, this even

99
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 1: applies to JD. Vance, who was very open about the

100
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: fact that he was a not a Trump supporter at

101
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: all in the twenty sixteen election cycle and has obviously

102
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: come around to the point where eight years later, here

103
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: is now as the vice president to Donald Trump. So

104
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: these are all indicators for me, I think for everybody

105
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: watching of the growth, and I would say the maturity

106
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: of the system that Trump is bringing to bear to

107
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: change the existing system of DC. Right. The team around

108
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: him and the people that he has bring in, they

109
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: learned some tough lessons from the first administration and they

110
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: are implementing right now those lessons. And this is really

111
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: really positive for all of us to see. And this

112
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 1: is what I was hoping the opening twenty four hours

113
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: of Trump's second term would look like. And there's so

114
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: many things that he has been pushing for and talking about.

115
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: You know, one of them, I'm just gonna say, you know,

116
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: the TikTok deal. We haven't really focused in on this much.

117
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: This is cut ten Uh. He has given a reprieve,

118
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: it seems to TikTok. I can tell you this TikTok

119
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: is still up and running and going and Trump is

120
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: figuring out what exactly is going to happen with it.

121
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: But this is quite a change from where things were.

122
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 1: This is cut ten play it.

123
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 3: I may not do the dealer, I may do the deal.

124
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: TikTok is worthless, worthless if I don't approve it, and

125
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 3: has to close.

126
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: I learned that from the people that own it.

127
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 3: If I don't do the deal, it's worthless, it's worth nothing.

128
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 3: If I do the deal, it's worth maybe a trillion

129
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 3: dollars a trillion. So if I do the deal for

130
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 3: I'm talking about doing it for the United States.

131
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 1: If I do the deal for.

132
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 3: The United States, then I think we should get half.

133
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: I think the US should be entitled.

134
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 3: To get half of TikTok, And congratulations TikTok as a

135
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 3: good partner, and that would be worth you know, it

136
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 3: could be five hundred billion dollars.

137
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: It's crazy.

138
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 3: The numbers are crazy.

139
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: So it looks like TikTok is going to there's going

140
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 1: to be some sort of a deal with this. It

141
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: is going been where we find that TikTok is a

142
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: huge platform. I know that even among conservatives. It's funny

143
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 1: I have more people that I have agreed with my

144
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,719
Speaker 1: position than I realized recently because the BAM was coming up,

145
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: and that Ran Paul and I agree, Elon Musk and

146
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: I agree. There are a few others who just are

147
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: not comfortable with this idea, that banning to that this

148
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: threat to ban, and that there are other ways that

149
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 1: this could have been handled that. There's a bit of

150
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: hysteria around this, and I know people and I get

151
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: all the emails disagree with me. It's a Chinese spying app.

152
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 1: It's in charge of our propaganda. I don't actually think

153
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: that's true. As somebody who uses TikTok every day, I

154
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: see no Chinese propaganda on it. Okay, So I don't

155
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: use it every day, but when I do, when I

156
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: am scrolling through TikTok, it's maybe this is just because

157
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: the algorithm understands me so well. It's cooking steak puppies,

158
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 1: tactical tips for firearms, workout tips and and history stuff.

159
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: So yes, TikTok apparently does know me quite well. But

160
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't see how these aren't things that could have

161
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,440
Speaker 1: been addressed without having to pass this legislation. Remember Trump

162
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: didn't do this, Biden did this, and Republicans went along

163
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: with it in the Congress. So I think that he

164
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 1: is going to save it. I think that that's going

165
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: to be interesting. What other thing that came up? I

166
00:09:55,160 --> 00:10:00,120
Speaker 1: have not forgotten about this. Remember when there was the

167
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 1: the stories were just all over the place about these

168
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: drones that were popping up. It was The biggest thing

169
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: in the country for about a week was there were

170
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: all these drone sightings happening, and the government said they

171
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: don't know what it is. He said, it probably is nothing,

172
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: and then people said, no, no, it's something. They said, okay,

173
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: it's something, but we don't know what it is. The

174
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: whole thing seemed like a mess. It seemed like a mess.

175
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 1: Something was going on there. Well, Trump has has this,

176
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: has cut seven, has ordered his White House Chief of

177
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: staff to find out what the heck was going on

178
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:40,240
Speaker 1: with all those drones. I think it's I think it's Sarah.

179
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 3: I would I would like to find out what it

180
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,599
Speaker 3: is and tell the people. In fact, i'd like to

181
00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 3: do that.

182
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: Could we find out what that was?

183
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 3: Susy? Okay, yeah, why don't we find out immediately? Maybe

184
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 3: I can't imagine it's an enemy or there would have

185
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,679
Speaker 3: been you know, people would have gotten blown up all

186
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 3: but maybe they were testing things. I don't know why

187
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 3: they wouldn't have said what it was. I had a

188
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 3: lot of them flying over at Leinster, which is interesting.

189
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: It is interesting. I would also say this that that

190
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: we will get answers on this is a good thing.

191
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: And I my sense is that it won't be a

192
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 1: particularly that the answers won't be all that interesting. I also,

193
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: and I'm just telling you, I could be wrong. I

194
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,600
Speaker 1: think on this I won't be I know that Trump

195
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: is going to release information about the JFK assassination and

196
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: a couple of there are a couple of other things

197
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: that are in the in the stack of old but

198
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: still classified that there's a lot of interest in and

199
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 1: some conspiracies around whatever may be about. I haven't seen.

200
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 1: I was not an important person in the CIA. I

201
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 1: was just a worker b in the CIA. But I

202
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 1: have not seen the JFK files or anything. So I

203
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 1: could just say that right off the bat. I think

204
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: when this stuff does eventually get released by Trump, releasing

205
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: it is the right thing. It's not going to be

206
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: very interesting. I know it's very disappointing to hear. I

207
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: know people think and they believe, Oh, it's good, we're

208
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 1: gonna find out that, you know, our own government had

209
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 1: JFK killed or something. We're not. In my opinion, I

210
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: could be wrong. We'll see. The good news is we

211
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: don't have to argue about it. You don't have to

212
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: convince me one way or the other. Because we'll see

213
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,440
Speaker 1: when this stuff is released. I'm just telling you, they'll

214
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 1: get your hopes up that it's going to be really interesting.

215
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be pretty boring. And I

216
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: know this, or rather I believe this, because I have

217
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: an understanding of government's ability to come up with the

218
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: most obscure and pointless justifications for keeping things secret. I've

219
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 1: seen them do it. I know how they do this stuff,

220
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: and they get very fixed on it for things that

221
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: are pointless, for things that are no one cares about.

222
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 1: There's oh, no one can know about this, or no

223
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: one can find Usually if it's if there's even just

224
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,439
Speaker 1: a hint of government embarrassment for an agency, they'll try.

225
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: And by the way, that's against the classification guidelines. They're

226
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: not supposed to do that, but they do it all

227
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: the time. So I believe one, Trump should release the

228
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 1: JFK files. Two it won't be very interesting. So and

229
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: mark me down on this one. I will hold myself accountable.

230
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: If there are bombshell revelations that come out of that,

231
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: I'll be the first to say that I was wrong.

232
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,959
Speaker 1: But I mean, I knew that there wasn't gonna be

233
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,559
Speaker 1: anything in Trump's tax returns. I know only Democrats thought that,

234
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: but that was the most obvious thing in the world. Oh,

235
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: the federal government already has it, but we're going to

236
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 1: find out that he's doing crazy stuff in his tax returns.

237
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: That it was absurd, right, it was secret because it

238
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: was private, because that's the right of any American citizen

239
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 1: to not have their tax returns just leaked out to

240
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: the public. Although as we know that somebody did leak

241
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: some of Trump's tax returns. So those are some other

242
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: things that are in the offing right now, things that

243
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: are going to be happening here imminently that some are

244
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: more important than others. But the doc band, the release

245
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: of information and getting rid of some of these Biden

246
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: Democrat holdouts. Trump can find great people aligned with the

247
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: mission for every appointee role, and there's no reason to

248
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: allow people who are opposed to the Trump mission to

249
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: stay in a government appointee position and keep doing what

250
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: they're doing. So, yeah, that's that's something that I was

251
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: very pleased to see. You know, we witnessed history yesterday

252
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: and a renewed pride in our country and people are

253
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,800
Speaker 1: talking about a golden age. With that pride comes a

254
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 1: respect for our founding documents, including the US Constitution, but

255
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: how well do you actually know it? For a lot

256
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: of us, it's been a while since we were in

257
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: school learning about it, which is why our friends at

Speaker 4: You know.

275
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: Gonna happen, but sure enough, there were there's already been

276
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: some pushback on Trump and on everything that's going on here,

277
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: this time coming from a a national prayer service. Well,

278
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: we'll get to you here at the bottom. But the

279
00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: first family and the second family, right, Trump and his family, JD.

280
00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: Vance and his family lectured by a member of the

281
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: clergy about some things, which is, let me tell you,

282
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: not stuff that they need to hear. It's not appropriate.

283
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: But the Democrats are gonna get increasingly desperate, I think,

284
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: and you're going to see things get pretty ugly from

285
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 1: some of these pundits, channels, public figures, you name it,

286
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: who are just they're furious about the fact that Donald

287
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Trump has won this sweeping victory. They don't really know

288
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: what argument to make. What are they gonna say it

289
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: should have been Biden? Well, we all know what happened

290
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: with Biden. They lied about his dementia and then we

291
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 1: caught them and then it was too late for them, right,

292
00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: And then they put forward Kamala Harris, who is a disastrous,

293
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 1: a disastrous candidate. So I'm sorry because I said Kamala

294
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 1: in the primary. They put forward Kamala as the general

295
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 1: election candidate, and she was absolutely terrible. So they have nothing,

296
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: nothing going on there, and I think that they're gonna

297
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: get desperate. They're gonna start saying things. They're gonna start

298
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,880
Speaker 1: saying things that to me are more and more off

299
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: the wall. Eventually they will coalesce around some kind of

300
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 1: a message. Eventually they will have I think it'll be

301
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 1: around deportations. I think that's the most likely scenario. So

302
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: there we have it. We'll we'll dive into this some more.

303
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,440
Speaker 1: I want to play the audio I didn't have time

304
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 1: for you. I'll play the audio from this National Prayer breakfast.

305
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: You can hear what I'm talking about. We'll get to

306
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,239
Speaker 1: that here in a moment. Keeping your family safe as

307

Speaker 1: job number one. Saber security products can help get the

308

Speaker 1: job done on Saber has safeguarded more than one hundred

324
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: so let's talk about this National Prayer Service that just

325
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: that just happened. You have. This is at Washington National Cathedral.

326
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: It just happened this morning. So last night's amazing executors

327
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: coming through a lot of really positive things moving, things

328
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: moving in the right direction. And there was a a reverend.

329
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 1: I believe I'm trying to find the right designation for

330
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: the individual speaking here, a member of the clergy in

331
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: the National Cathedral. I think addressed to their to their faces.

332
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: The president, his wife, vice president, his wife, family members

333
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 1: all gathered there and this is what she decided to say.

334
00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 2: Listen to it in the name of our God, I

335
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 2: ask you to have mercy upon the people in our

336
00:19:54,680 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 2: country who we're scared now. There are gay, lesbian and

337
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 2: transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families, some who

338
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: fear for their lives. And the people the people who

339
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 2: pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor

340
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 2: in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes

341
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: after we eat in restaurants, and work the night shifts

342
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:31,720
Speaker 2: in hospitals. They may not be citizens or have the

343
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 2: proper documentation, but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals.

344
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 2: They pay taxes and our good neighbors. They are faithful

345
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 2: members of our churches and mosques, synagogues, widara and temples.

346
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, afraid for their lives? Why are they afraid? What

347
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: is they're being afraid for their lives? Have to do

348
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: with with Donald Trump exactly and the new administration. I'm

349
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:11,199
Speaker 1: talking now about the members of the LGBTQ plus it

350
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:16,440
Speaker 1: really just trans individuals. There's Trump is actually the president

351
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:20,639
Speaker 1: who ran and held a gay Pride flag up on

352
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: stage when it was running back in twenty sixteen. Has

353
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: many members of the gay and lesbian community who are

354
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 1: senior in his administration. So they tried this for a while,

355
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: but I think actually the I'm trying to think of

356
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,919
Speaker 1: which which letters specifically here, but the gay community, the

357
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,640
Speaker 1: lesbian communities country, Trump is not anti them at all,

358
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: takes note, has taken no actions that are against them.

359
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: Is the fact, quite warm, welcoming and supportive of them,

360
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: and brings them into his administration. So so that just

361
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: doesn't work that trying to fold it all in together.

362
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: It's on the issue of men and women are men

363
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: and women and the tens component of this where the

364
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 1: left is upset. But I just think, first of all,

365
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,120
Speaker 1: this is wildly inappropriate. I know people say, oh, they're

366
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: just calling for mercy. Remember the left calls for mercy

367
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: while they're smashing you in the face. Right, the left

368
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 1: claim to be the Democrats. This whole mindset, these progressives,

369
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: however you want to describe them. They claim they will

370
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:31,479
Speaker 1: claim victimhood while they are victimizing you. And that is

371
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: very much something that we have to be aware of.

372
00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: You know, they will use your empathy against you. They

373
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: will they will say, oh, no, I just I just

374
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 1: want to be I just want to be treated like

375
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: a human being. I just want basic rights I just

376
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 1: want they make these entreaties, but really what they want

377
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 1: is for you to be a party to a lie.

378
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,880
Speaker 1: They want you to go along with their madness. They

379
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: want to use the state, the authority of the state

380
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: and state power to oppress your rights, your actual constitutional rights.

381
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: And I think we've all had enough of this, but

382
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: it wasn't surprising. Oh and then on the point about immigrants,

383
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: I look, a lot of different religious a lot of Christians.

384
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: I'll speak about it in the Christian context, A lot

385
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: of different Christian religious leaders, Catholic religious leaders in this

386
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 1: country are effectively open borders. I mean, they are particularly

387
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: I think wrong on this issue because they are excusing

388
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: violations of law that are violations of our sovereignty as

389
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 1: a nation. And at the same time, they don't say, well,

390
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 1: the government, you know, here's just a quick way of

391
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: putting this. They will claim like, if you don't, if

392
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: you don't want illegals by the millions to come into

393
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: the country, you're not being Christian. This is a version

394
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: of what you'll hear you're being a Christian. And then

395
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: you try and you say, well, hold on a second,

396
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: do they ever complain about the fact that the government

397
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:17,119
Speaker 1: under threat of imprisonment, takes arbitrary some of money. They

398
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,480
Speaker 1: just come up with this, right, I mean, yeah, it's

399
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,800
Speaker 1: legislation or whatever. But as we know, the tax code

400
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: is a mess and it's in many ways very rigged

401
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: and very unfair. But they will demand payment, and if

402
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,360
Speaker 1: you don't pay, they'll put you in prison. They don't

403
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: have any problem with that. Right. They take your freedom

404
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 1: away and ruin your life as an American citizen if

405
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 1: you don't want to pay your taxes. But people that

406
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: want to come here illegally and get access to what

407
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: those taxes support and pay for, and get access to

408
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: welfare that they're actually not legally even entitled to. All

409
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:56,120
Speaker 1: of this, you see, it's it's only the one part

410
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: of the issue that they want to begin to address

411
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,919
Speaker 1: and not the rest. Anyway. Look, I don't think Trump

412
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 1: cares that some member of the of the clergy or

413
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: whatever was lecturing them about this, But it just goes

414
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 1: to the hysterical tone that so many people have. And

415
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:17,680
Speaker 1: just because somebody is doing it from behind a whether

416
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 1: it's a Roman collar or vestment of some kind or

417
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:27,120
Speaker 1: whatever it may be, it does not mean that they

418
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 1: have a handle on what's actually best for the country

419
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: right now, and they should probably stick more to the

420
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: spiritual and less to partisan politics. But it's not a

421
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,439
Speaker 1: surprise that this is going to happen, and you're going

422
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:39,760
Speaker 1: to see a lot more of this. In fact, on

423
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:42,440
Speaker 1: the media reaction to this, this is what I thought

424
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: was particularly funny. This is Stephanie Rule over at MSNBC.

425
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: I don't even know anyone's watching MSNBC these days. As

426
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 1: you all know, I have stopped watching Mourning Joe. I

427
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: have stopped watching Mourning Joe because it is boring. Now

428
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: they are not havingston meltdowns about the looming fascism in

429
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: the end of America and all this stuff, So now

430
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 1: it's just kind of a watered down Democrat news broadcast.

431
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 1: But Stephanie Rule was over there, and she well listen

432
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: to what she has to say. She's an MSNBC pundit.

433
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: Plate twelve.

434
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 5: It is day one of the second Trump administration. Donald

435
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 5: Trump has been president for a grand total of eleven hours,

436
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 5: and he wasted no time imposing his will on American government. Tonight,

437
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,399
Speaker 5: he announced he was pardoning or commuting the sentences of

438
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,120
Speaker 5: virtually everyone involved in the January sixth attack on the Capitol.

439
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 5: That includes Stuart Rhodes, remember that name, the founder of

440
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 5: the Oathkeepers, and Enrique A. Tario, the former leader of

441
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 5: the Proud Boys. Both of these men were tried in

442
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 5: federal court and convicted of seditious conspiracy. The conspiracy. Donald

443
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 5: Trump also signed an order redefining birthright citizenship.

444
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 1: Wasted no time imposing his will on American government. Yeah,

445
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 1: you mean, he's president and he signed executive orders. Now,

446
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: I mean, this is this is why we have elections.

447
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,959
Speaker 1: So you put this person in charge, you make this

448
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: person the president by the will of the people and

449
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,959
Speaker 1: trusted with powers because of the vote of the people,

450
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: and then they make that individual. In this case, Donald

451
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:25,919
Speaker 1: Trump makes decisions that are in line with hopefully the

452
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 1: promises and the base of governing philosophy that they brought

453
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: to bear in the election cycle. And that's exactly what

454
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: we are seeing. And the opposition to this, I think

455
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 1: is hampered on so many levels. Or the efforts to

456
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: try to undermine these early days of Donald Trump's presidency

457
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 1: they're very weak. I mean, the efforts are like little

458
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 1: squeaks from way up in the rafters or you know,

459
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: way up in the bleachers or something. I mean, there's

460
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: no unified, cohesive anti Trump messaging in existence right now.

461
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 1: There's just whining and bitterness from people who didn't want

462
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: this to happen and who really take no accountability or

463
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: responsibility whatsoever for what has gone on here with their

464
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: own party, which is the degradation of the Democrat Party

465
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 1: into one that is willing to put a dementia patient

466
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: not only in office and lie about it while he

467
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: is the President of the United States, which what they

468
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: did with the Joe Biden, but then to continue that

469
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: lie deep into an election cycle and then have it

470
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: undone only by the plane reality of the obvious decline

471
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: and dementia that we all saw in that debate, and

472
00:28:55,520 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: then as we know, the whole Kamala debacle. She's a unique, untalented, uncharming,

473
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: incapable politician. And so sure, yeah, this is where we

474
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: are now. We have Trump in part because yes, there's

475
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 1: a lot of great ideas and he's brilliance of Trump

476
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 1: and the political powers he has and everything, you know,

477
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: the skill set that he brings to very yes, that's

478
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 1: all true, of course, but also what the other side did.

479
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: They lost their minds, They acted like a bunch of

480
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 1: crazy people. From the top down and all the way across.

481
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 1: They acted like a bunch of lunatics. And there are

482
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: consequences to that as well. It turns out that the

483
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: American people, when confronted with a party that has decided

484
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: it will lie, it'll make lies about clear things, about

485
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: the most obvious things mandatory. There is a pushback to that,

486
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: and there are people who say enough is enough. And

487
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: this is why you've had so many Democrats crossing over.

488
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: You know, they're upset about Wait, where is he? It's

489
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: Brad Stelter. Is he back at c it ED? I

490
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 1: think he's back at c it ED. They got rid

491
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: of him and they brought him back. I don't know why,

492
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: but they did. Here this cup thirteen, calling this the

493
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: inauguration of the Oligarchs. Play it.

494
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 6: This was the inauguration of the oligarchs. It was a

495
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 6: turning point in American history to have these men, these

496
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 6: tech CEOs, almost front and center with Trump, and not

497
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 6: just at the ceremony. We're also showing scenes from the

498
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 6: weekend at some of these parties, some of these galas

499
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,920
Speaker 6: where Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos and others were hanging

500
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 6: out talking shop. We know Elon Musk is the tech

501
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 6: ceo closest to Trump personally, but these other moguls are

502
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 6: trying to make sure they are cozying up to the

503
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 6: incoming president as well. And I think we should take

504
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 6: a stock at this and say, why are these men

505
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 6: so rich? Why do they have so much power? It's

506
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 6: kind of because of us. We're the users. We're the

507
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 6: ones using their platforms, We're the ones buying ads and

508
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 6: products on their place. So that is where the power.

509
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, enough of stella now, but but the inauguration of

510
00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: the oligarchs. These are all people whose companies and as

511
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: individuals in many cases, we're supporting Democrats until about five

512
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: minutes ago. I mean, Elon Musk has been red pilled.

513
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: He has changed because he's seen what the Democrats do.

514
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: He's paid more attention by his own admission to what

515
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: Democrats and what wokeness has done to this country. But

516
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos Amazon, Amazon kicked Parlor off of the Internet

517
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 1: effectively in the twenty twenty election cycle, remember that we

518
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: were talking about at the start of the show. And

519
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: you know, I just think that it's so it's become

520
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 1: so clear to people as well, in part because of

521
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: X and the ability to share information more freely. Now

522
00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: it's become so clear to people that Democrats there's no

523
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: standard they apply to any of this. You're not an oligarch,

524
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: you know, George Soros is a philanthropist because he supports,

525
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 1: with huge amounts of money, very left wing policy that

526
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: undermines this nation to its core and at its foundations.

527
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: But you know, he's a philanthropist. But anyone worth billions

528
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: of dollars who even aligns with the right on some

529
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 1: issues is, as Bernie Sanders would say, an olive gaw

530
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,520
Speaker 1: because they have no standard. They just want power, They

531
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 1: just want their team to win. I'm almost at the

532
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 1: point now where I feel like a boxer who can't

533
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 1: find an opponent. Who am I to fight with in public?

534
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 2: Now?

535
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: What is the message from the other side? Who are

536
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: they going to put forward to try to convince the

537
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: American people that Donald Trump is not going to do

538
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: a great job, does not have a great agenda. Right now,

539
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: it's a deafening silence for the most part, Like I said,

540
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of chirping here and there, but they

541
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: got nothing. You know, Starting this week, we're going to

542
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 1: see a lot of legislation and a busy agenda from

543
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: President Trump's new administration. And as excited as we are,

544
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: long term problems this administration is going to have is

545
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: addressing our national debt. It's a huge contributor to our

546
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 1: inflation problem. Massive issue. It's not easily solved. Even as

547
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,360
Speaker 1: President Trump and others are effective at reducing the size

548
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: of government, It's going to be a long time before

549
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: we can even balance a budget, let alone start to

550
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: really hack away at the thirty six trillion dollar debt.

551
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 1: So you need to take a long term view with

552
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:23,960

553

Speaker 1: check that out. I knew I was. I knew I

580
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,760
Speaker 1: was poking the bear a little bit with the comments

581
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 1: I made about the JFK files. Okay, I know, I know.

582
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,440
Speaker 1: Oh everywhere, Oh it's gonna be it's crazy. Let me

583
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: tell you a little secret about this. Well, for you

584
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: know what, first we get here's Salt Lake listener on

585
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: our talk back here. This is AA so play this one.

586
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 1: If there was nothing there in the JFK files, then

587
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:13,680
Speaker 1: why the delay in releasing them? If it's just boring information? Well,

588
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 1: like I said, one government is not always rational or

589
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: reasonable at all of it. It's usually not rational or

590
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:24,799
Speaker 1: reasonable about this issue. I could be wrong, but I'm

591
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 1: saying I could be wrong on this. Maybe it's gonna

592
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: be awesome, huge revelation. Here's the bigger one. If something

593
00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: is really really interesting and it is secret, it does

594
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:40,560
Speaker 1: not stay secret for long. Stuff happens to show. Maybe

595
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 1: they can suppress it for a while. Maybe they can,

596
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: but you know they're going to have to go to

597
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 1: really extreme lengths. I'm what I mean is if somebody

598
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: was able to if there were files that proved I

599
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 1: can't believe we're talking conspiracy theories, Yester show you know

600
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: what one of these days, if there were files that

601
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 1: proved that the US government was involved in and taking

602
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: out a president, right CIA or whatever, somebody would say

603
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: something and would have come forward with the files. In

604
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: my opinion, I don't think what's really think about so

605
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 1: many I could sit here and talk to you about

606
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,279
Speaker 1: so many different things that were so secret at different point.

607
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,480
Speaker 1: Now it's all it comes out. It's very hard, it's

608
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,360
Speaker 1: not impossible. It's very hard for the government to keep

609
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 1: a secret that's really interesting for a really long period

610
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: of time. I'm just one of Buck's theorems. You get

611
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,959
Speaker 1: dis Look Trump, we don't have to argue. Trump's gonna

612
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 1: release it. He says he's gonna release it. He's gonna

613
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: release it, and we shall see. But if I'm right,

614
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say I told you so, all right. I

615
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 1: just you know, because a lot of other people, oh
