1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:03.279
Are you ready, Yeah, Okay, let's do it.

2
00:00:03.319 --> 00:00:07.839
Ill Martina's Live a program about current events, our culture,

3
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160
our values, our politics, and our future.

4
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:14.560
And now Bill Martinez.

5
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:17.600
Hey, good morning, good to have you with us. Bill

6
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:20.920
Martinez here along with Mike O'Neil from Landmark Legal. Just

7
00:00:20.960 --> 00:00:23.359
about six minutes after the top. They are right now. Hey, Mike,

8
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:24.000
good morning to you.

9
00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:25.800
Good morning Bill, good to be with you.

10
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:29.960
And lots of things catch up. Interesting, you know, watching

11
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:33.840
the primaries the last couple of days and what happened,

12
00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:38.640
particularly in California, you know with uh, you know, with

13
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:41.759
Steve Hilton. It looks like, you know, we'll see how

14
00:00:41.799 --> 00:00:44.000
the numbers. You know, whenever you're talking about California, they

15
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.359
take so long, you know, to count the ballots. I

16
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:50.200
don't know what's wrong, you know. I mean Florida, Florida

17
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.359
can do it in several hours and meet a deadline. California,

18
00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:56.479
because they're special, I guess, cannot seem to count count

19
00:00:56.520 --> 00:00:57.119
the ballots.

20
00:00:57.359 --> 00:01:01.119
It's funny I saw yesterday on actually Columbia, the country

21
00:01:01.119 --> 00:01:04.079
of Columbia does it. They have paper ballots in person voting,

22
00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.879
and they know the and they handcount and they verify

23
00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:09.239
it and they know the outcome of their elections within

24
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:12.640
hours after it. And the United States of America supposedly

25
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.879
our richest state, quote unquote, our richest state, California, the

26
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:21.599
most resources. We're talking about days weeks to verify elections

27
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:24.879
or to ensure that. But what does that mean. Let's

28
00:01:24.920 --> 00:01:26.920
just be frank. The reason they have this and this

29
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:29.280
actually will fall into one of the frame coort cases

30
00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:32.159
that's pending right now. The decisions pending is when you

31
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:35.879
allow ballots, when you send every single person, every single

32
00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.760
name on a voter list, voter registration list, and keep

33
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:41.799
in mind, there's no real effort to ensure that those

34
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:44.879
names are still alive or even live in California or

35
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:48.200
even eligible to vote. When you send every single name

36
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:51.359
on a voter registration list a mail ballot, whether they

37
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.760
want it or not, and you flood the entire state

38
00:01:53.799 --> 00:01:57.400
with mail ballots, and you have allowed these mail ballots

39
00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:00.840
to be received days and weeks after the election, it's

40
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:04.120
just it creates the tsunami of nonsense where you have

41
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:09.199
just opportunities for malfeasance and fraud and mischief and vote

42
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:15.599
manufacturing and election manipulation and ballot manipulation and it's absurd.

43
00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:20.360
It's an embarrassment to the entire world that our supposedly richest, biggest, large,

44
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:24.000
you know, most populous state, et cetera, et cetera, can't

45
00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:26.240
even ensure that their elections are going to be there,

46
00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:29.879
are going to be legitimate hours after the election. It's absurd.

47
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.479
Well, and the thing is, it leaves the people because

48
00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:37.599
what happens in California doesn't stay in California. It's kind

49
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:40.719
of like a disease that you know, bleeds into the

50
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:44.120
other states of the Union that causes people to be

51
00:02:44.199 --> 00:02:48.840
suspicious of the process. I mean, look at there should

52
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:52.879
be uniformity. I know that we're republic and every state

53
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:55.280
should have its own privilege and all this sort of thing.

54
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:59.960
But it's just, you know, they all have their own ideas,

55
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:04.120
depending who's driving the bus. Unless there's some uniformity and

56
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:08.439
consistency here, it's going to be open to fraud. And

57
00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:11.759
I think, and this is what we're seeing. So something

58
00:03:11.960 --> 00:03:15.560
has to come to a conclusion here to say, Okay,

59
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:19.159
how do we conduct a free and fair election? Nobody's

60
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:20.000
asking that question.

61
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:24.080
Mike, Well, I mean we've been trying. We've been talking

62
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.240
a lot about the Same America Act, and I think

63
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:28.840
I come out it a little bit. I think that

64
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.599
the federalism issue is important and the role of the

65
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:34.560
states is important, but I do think that their baseline

66
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.840
requirements to conduct an election. In other words, I think

67
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:41.159
that everybody and those are encapsulated in the Same America Act,

68
00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:43.400
the federal legislation that you and I have talked about

69
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.639
many many times that still is languishing in the Senate.

70
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:48.960
I guess it's just going to be. It's dead now

71
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:53.120
at this point, which is incredibly, unfortunately, incredibly frustrating for

72
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:56.599
me personally. But I think we can all agree base

73
00:03:56.759 --> 00:04:01.319
level thing, base level protocols in place to ensure election integrity.

74
00:04:02.520 --> 00:04:06.520
Vote in person, establish your citizenship when you register a

75
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:11.280
vote in person, show identification when you vote, establish your

76
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:14.680
citizenship to ensure eligibility that you're a citizen the United State,

77
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:17.480
when you register and identify, and remove non citizens from

78
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:21.079
voting worlds and the one. There has been a little

79
00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:23.759
bit of positive development, and there's a case again pending

80
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:28.199
at the Supreme Court, Watson versus RNC, that involves election

81
00:04:28.319 --> 00:04:30.639
day receipt of mail ballots. And this is a case

82
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.959
where in Washington state allows the receipt of mail ballots

83
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:36.240
for up to twenty one days after an election day.

84
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:39.720
And the question is whether that violates the federal law

85
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:42.240
that specifies that elections need to be completed by an

86
00:04:42.279 --> 00:04:45.480
election day on election day. And I think that that's

87
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:47.519
an example of what you're talking about though, Right, is

88
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.759
that a state like Washington State or California that allows

89
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.839
ballots to be received mail ballots to be received days

90
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:56.519
and weeks after an election is just ripe with fraud

91
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:00.199
and mouth seasons. It also acts as an incentivized is

92
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:03.120
voter fraud. If you're with me, you know, if if

93
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:06.399
you're carrying bass and you're in a and you're in

94
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:10.800
a mayorial race against Spencer Pratt and the margins are

95
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:14.680
three thousand votes or five thousand votes or vice versa

96
00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:18.480
Spencer Prat, Bass, you're and you are allowed bouts to

97
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:21.279
continue to trickle in days or weeks after the election.

98
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:23.279
What's that going to do? That's gonna incentivize you to

99
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:25.519
go out and manufacture those those ballots.

100
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.600
So it's especially and especially when you're in a state

101
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:32.000
that allows for ballot harvesting, right, Yeah, on top.

102
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:34.040
Of exactly exactly, I mean there was a case a

103
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:37.240
couple of years ago that said that states could outlaw

104
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:40.519
ballot a Supreme Court case. Again, this gets to your

105
00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:43.879
kind of point about uniformity here, but it's right now

106
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:45.720
in our system. It's that coming upon the states to

107
00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:48.079
take action to ensure this. I would like to have

108
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.360
some base level federal law, i e. The Save Act,

109
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.399
which would sit base levels. But there's a case in

110
00:05:53.480 --> 00:05:56.079
Arizona Bernovich a couple of years ago that said a

111
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:59.240
state could outlaw ballot harvesting, and that was met with

112
00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:04.120
houses that ballot harvesting, that outline ballot ballot harvesting would

113
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.639
disenfranchise so many people and give me a break. Ballot

114
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:09.680
harvesting is terrifying, right. It undermines so many of the

115
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:13.800
fundamental precepts of our democracy. Ballot Harvesting allows somebody who's

116
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.720
not even not a relative, not a trusted friend or

117
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:19.680
anything like that. It allows these NGOs to descend on

118
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:23.920
vulnerable populations and knock on doors and say, Okay, little lady,

119
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:25.439
I'm gonna knock on your door. You want to vote

120
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.839
for for Spencer Pratt, or you want to vote for Campbaths,

121
00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.240
don't you? Don't you that removes the secrecy. The entire

122
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:34.079
point of the secret ballot is to exactly prove the

123
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:37.160
potential for undue influence on how you vote. That's cast

124
00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:39.480
out the window with ballot harvesting. And so it's absurd

125
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:43.399
to have these these laws again, as you said, Washington State,

126
00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.839
California that allows us ballot harvesting, which of course ballot

127
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:51.839
harvesting mail votes and of permitting the received ballots after

128
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:55.040
election day is just this perfect recipe for voter fraud.

129
00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:59.000
And even in the cases where it's not fraud, it's

130
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:01.680
the perception of fraud is bad too. People lose faith

131
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:04.519
in the integrity of the system exactly, they see swings,

132
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:05.519
which is just as bad.

133
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:08.000
Well, and here we are. We've been dealing with this

134
00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:13.439
now for what at least ten years, at least ten

135
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:16.720
years where you know, and you could go back arguably

136
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.480
and say decades, but still at least ten years where

137
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:22.600
it's just become more and more obvious that all these shenanigans,

138
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:25.720
the motor voter rolls, the things that California has done,

139
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:30.600
I mean, they protected over three million voters on their

140
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:35.160
roles that should have been eliminated according to Judicial Watch.

141
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:40.560
Here recently, Judicial Watch got California to finally take off

142
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.600
one point two million voters. These are people that have

143
00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:46.680
been moved and everything else, and they've moved. Some are dead,

144
00:07:47.439 --> 00:07:51.519
you know, some are just outright bogus, and you know,

145
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:54.360
but it was a fight. It wasn't a simple, you know,

146
00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:57.240
process to say, hey, we know, you got some things here.

147
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:00.160
You're supposed to all part of the you know, what

148
00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:04.040
had been instituted previously about voting was that you were

149
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:07.600
to maintain clean voter rolls. And you have not been

150
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.720
doing this on an annual basis because you know, even

151
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:15.120
the Post Office reports that roughly twenty twenty five percent

152
00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:18.839
of the population moves every year. So what does that

153
00:08:18.879 --> 00:08:21.199
say about the voter roles. You're going to have that

154
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.800
kind of attrition or that kind of movement on your

155
00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:26.959
voter rolls, and if you don't have somebody watching it,

156
00:08:27.319 --> 00:08:31.600
then you've got, you know, you've got contaminated voter rolls.

157
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.919
They've perfected a system whereby you can manipulate the vote.

158
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:40.480
Again enough if you mail voting, universal mail voting, and

159
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.600
again that was that really took off nationally in COVID, right,

160
00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:48.039
the COVID and the COVID emergency was seized on by

161
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:53.039
these activists to install mail voting, widespread mail voting in

162
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:56.679
a lot of states before COVID it was. It occurred again,

163
00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:59.279
but not to the extension occurs nationally because it was

164
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:02.120
seized on right under the threat that somehow you voting

165
00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:03.759
in person was going to expose you to COVID and

166
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:06.559
you die, Uncle craft exactly, and.

167
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:09.600
So why right, nail, let's go to break. We'll pick

168
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:11.159
it up more on the other side. More from Mike

00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:17.080
This report is sponsored by IBM as AI transforms how

171
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:20.399
work gets done. A new IBM CEO study finds success

172
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:24.519
will depend on how quickly organizations redesign their workforce. CEOs

173
00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:27.879
agree people are the priority. Eighty three percent of CEOs

174
00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:31.639
say AI success depends more on people's adoption than the technology,

175
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.000
but many organizations are still struggling to redesign roles, build

176
00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:38.320
new skills, and rethink how teams collaborate. This gap is

177
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:41.440
already showing up in the workplace. CEOs say only twenty

178
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:43.879
five percent of employees are using AI as part of

179
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:46.720
their jobs, even though eighty six percent believe their workforce

180
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.159
have the skills to collaborate with AI. Looking ahead, CEOs

181
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:53.120
expect the impact on jobs to accelerate by twenty twenty eight.

182
00:09:53.120 --> 00:09:56.200
Twenty nine percent of employees may need reskilling for different roles,

183
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:59.320
while fifty nine percent will likely require upskilling to perform

184
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:02.279
their current roles more effectively. The findings suggests the real

185
00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:05.759
challenge isn't just adopting AI, it's aligning jobs, skills, and

186
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.919
ways of working with the speed of AI transformation. To

214
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:34.360

Hey, we're back with you with Landmark legalis Michael Neil Michah.

248
00:13:17.799 --> 00:13:21.320
We're talking, you know, balid harvesting, the problems, I mean,

249
00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:24.200
we're talking the things that people still talk about, which

250
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:26.960
you know, I think people are just getting worn out

251
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.399
and they're almost surrendering. They're throwing up the white flag

252
00:13:30.440 --> 00:13:32.679
to say, you know what does it matter?

253
00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:36.879
Yeah, exactly that that's that's unfortunate. And that's really the

254
00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:40.360
what you guard against too, is just this the fact,

255
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:43.320
the hopelessness. And that's what you're saying, right is because

256
00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:45.240
because is go ahead.

257
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:50.279
No, Well, it contradicts our constitution. A government of four

258
00:13:50.360 --> 00:13:53.360
by we the people means that we must participate. If

259
00:13:53.399 --> 00:13:57.159
we don't participate, then we're corrupting the whole process.

260
00:13:57.840 --> 00:13:59.960
Yeah, and this is this is one of the real

261
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.240
dangers that I've always warned against some This is when

262
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.360
you lose faith in the integrity of the system. Yes,

263
00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:10.960
keep in mind, and what's left to effectuate change fundamentally,

264
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:13.279
how you affectuate change for the two hundred and fifty

265
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:16.919
years of our history, excuse me, is via the ballot box,

266
00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:20.120
right if you have to believe your vote counts. And

267
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:23.720
one of the beautiful things about America is we have

268
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.320
a culture in US is that even if you lose,

269
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.440
if you lose fairly, you accept the loss. Okay, if

270
00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:34.200
it's a fair If it's a fair fight and I lose, okay,

271
00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:37.039
I accept it. If my vote counted, then I if

272
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:39.399
my vote counted and I had a fair battle and

273
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:41.480
I thought the good fight and I lost, I'll accept

274
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:44.039
that loss. But what happens is when you lose faith

275
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:46.360
in the integrity of the system and that it doesn't

276
00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:48.600
matter whether I vote or not because the outcome is

277
00:14:48.600 --> 00:14:52.960
already determined, and you have that, you can't effectuate change

278
00:14:53.080 --> 00:14:56.440
via the ballot box. How do you want? What does

279
00:14:56.480 --> 00:14:59.679
that build up? That frustration builds up and ultimately leads

280
00:14:59.720 --> 00:15:03.759
to very dangerous paths, because in order to effectuate change,

281
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:05.879
you have to turn to alternative measures. And we know

282
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:09.200
human history is born out that that does not that

283
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:12.320
does not end well for anybody if you feel like

284
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:17.039
you can't change the system you're in via the democratic process.

285
00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:19.519
Yeah, you see, this is why, this is why, this

286
00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:22.120
is why what's going on in New Jersey, what's happened

287
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:24.720
in Minneapolis, doll this is so dangerous, Mike, to your

288
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:27.519
exact point year and that is that gives rise to

289
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:31.559
groups like Antifa that their way to effect effectuate change

290
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:34.639
is through treasonous and dangerous activity.

291
00:15:35.240 --> 00:15:37.480
Well, yeah, think about the way the left operates now,

292
00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:39.840
and this is indicative of when they become When they

293
00:15:40.480 --> 00:15:43.879
cannot effectuate change through the systems in place, they want

294
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.879
to destroy those systems. And it's encapsulated with the discussions

295
00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:49.200
about the Supreme Court. They're frustrated the left and we've

296
00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:51.759
talked about this before, but left is frustrated because they're

297
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.080
not winning every single case that comes in front of

298
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.559
the justices of the Supreme Court. They're not batting a

299
00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:59.600
thousand in other words, and what do they want to do?

300
00:15:59.639 --> 00:16:02.519
You see this speech after speech is they want to remake,

301
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:05.200
fundamentally remake the contours of the Supreme Court. In other words,

302
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:08.679
expanded from nine justices to thirteen justices. What happens then,

303
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:11.600
That means you've politicized the Supreme Court. You've added four

304
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.639
justices because you're not getting your political goals met once

305
00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:16.960
to stop on that. Once that door is open, nothing

306
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:21.600
is to stop. Nothing stops subsequent Congresses from expanding the

307
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:23.720
Supreme Court to accomplish their political ends.

308
00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:25.080
So there get.

309
00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:28.320
Control of the Supreme Court. And are they get control

310
00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.039
of Congress and the presidency in twenty twenty four? Are

311
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:34.159
twenty twenty eight, then they add four justices. Swings back

312
00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:36.879
to Republicans gain control of the Congress and the president. Well,

313
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.320
they open the door. Now we're going to add four justices.

314
00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:43.120
Then the Supreme Court is fundamentally changed from its deliberative

315
00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:47.840
constitutional body as it is presently configured into a political apparatcheck.

316
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:50.200
And that's what you we'll see. But the Democrats don't

317
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:53.080
be left doesn't care. They want to destroy the systems.

318
00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.159
And as you said with Antifa, they want to destroy

319
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:58.159
these systems if they don't go along with their radical

320
00:16:58.200 --> 00:16:59.000
Marxist agenda.

321
00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.919
Right, they have ways, they have ways to convince you

322
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:06.359
that we must go along with them, right and.

323
00:17:07.559 --> 00:17:10.359
Yeah, and they're in the process of destroying our electoral system.

324
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:12.359
I mean, I think you could argue that they've destroyed

325
00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:14.839
the electoral system in California to the extent so that

326
00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:18.000
they can achieve their one party goals. Well see, I

327
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:20.640
mean it's still I still think the fight is being waged.

328
00:17:20.839 --> 00:17:23.279
But they are all of these efforts to do this

329
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:27.720
to you know, mail voting, no ID everybody gets a ballot,

330
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.359
no no system, no checks on the system, voter, no

331
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:36.039
serious efforts to remove ineligible individuals from the voting walls.

332
00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:38.920
All this stuff is an effort to dismantle and destroy

333
00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:41.799
our electoral system to ensure that they have the chaos

334
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:42.839
where they can thrive in.

335
00:17:43.680 --> 00:17:46.279
Well. And the thing that is so disappointing, as we

336
00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:49.039
said from the get go, and that is that the

337
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:52.920
Republicans are in charge right now. I mean, they got

338
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.200
the keys to the car, but it's like they can't

339
00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:59.240
find the gear to put it in to move the

340
00:17:59.279 --> 00:17:59.920
car forward.

341
00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:04.319
I mean, it's I just it's funny. I am you

342
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:06.880
were talking about the hopelessness, and I am almost at

343
00:18:06.880 --> 00:18:09.599
that point with regards to the Save America Act. This

344
00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:11.920
one is just it blows my mind how that the

345
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:14.599
Senate has sat on their hands and not pulled the

346
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:17.759
full force and power of their offices to ensuring that

347
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.160
these baseline provisions to ensure election integrity would go through.

348
00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:24.160
I don't understand how an issue like eighty percent of

349
00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:27.400
the American people agree on voter identification is not a

350
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:30.880
federal law. It's just it's absolutely as I sit here

351
00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:34.119
on June third, it's absurd that that's not the case.

352
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.000
Well, and the other thing that happened, you know, this

353
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:42.039
past week is that Trump gets an award because of

354
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:47.279
you know, and the judicial you know, has to they

355
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:51.559
pay him, you know, because they violated his rights in

356
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:56.079
exposing his tax records for he and his family. So

357
00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:59.880
he gets a settlement of one point seven seven six

358
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:03.759
billion and he puts it into a slush fund to

359
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:10.599
heal people who have been subjects of judiciary weaponization a

360
00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:14.400
La jan six and others you know, across the country. Now,

361
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:17.359
all of a sudden, that becomes a bargaining chip, and

362
00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:20.519
John Thune has to convince the President to take it

363
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:23.519
off the table so that he can you know, do

364
00:19:23.640 --> 00:19:28.480
something and maybe pass, maybe pass the Reconciliation bill that

365
00:19:28.599 --> 00:19:31.759
will finally fund these agencies that we've been that have

366
00:19:31.839 --> 00:19:35.119
been suffering for the last what three four months? Ridiculous.

367
00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:38.680
Yeah, Again, the ineffectiveness of the Senate leadership is just

368
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:45.559
astounding to me. Is what, what concrete measures have they passed?

369
00:19:46.279 --> 00:19:48.480
How you have not put your full force behind this.

370
00:19:49.039 --> 00:19:52.559
You're right, reconciliation is a viable option for some of

371
00:19:52.599 --> 00:19:56.839
this stuff too, because or again, the philibusters. The other

372
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.839
one is, I'm under no illusion that when the Democrats

373
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:05.359
and when the Democrats retain is gone, so at least

374
00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:08.920
obligate the Democrats right now to engage into traditional filibuster

375
00:20:09.079 --> 00:20:12.599
in all in these cases, in this legislation that they opposed, reconciliation,

376
00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:14.000
they don't even have to worry about. They can do

377
00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:16.359
it by a simple majority, so you don't have to

378
00:20:16.359 --> 00:20:20.880
do that. But again, just it's astounding to me. I

379
00:20:20.920 --> 00:20:22.279
was I was actually talking about this with some of

380
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:26.200
my colleagues earlier today. The have you ever thought of

381
00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:31.720
an institution, an institution that doesn't want to exert power

382
00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:34.200
and authority in Congress? It's a it's kind of unique

383
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:37.079
how Congress, under our constitutional structure should be the most

384
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:40.960
powerful branch of government and yet they're the weakest. They're

385
00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:43.880
they're not. They're not excellent. It's it's amazing to me.

386
00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:47.079
Every human institution always wants to be more powerful. And

387
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:49.640
you know, government agencies, the president, the courts, et cetera,

388
00:20:49.680 --> 00:20:53.880
et cetera. But Congress is weird. They they they're happy

389
00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:56.519
just sitting on their hands, fat and happy collecting their checks.

390
00:20:57.000 --> 00:20:58.839
I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what that that

391
00:20:58.920 --> 00:21:02.640
condition exists more with the Republicans in control than it does.

392
00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:05.440
Oh yeah, absolutely, Democrats hold no bars.

393
00:21:05.519 --> 00:21:10.559
I mean no, that's a great point, Bill, great point. Republicans. Yes,

394
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:14.279
Republican can I should condition what I just said. Republican

395
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:19.519
controlled congresses, particularly the Senate, are very happy to sit

396
00:21:19.599 --> 00:21:22.119
on their hands and be fat and happy as opposed

397
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.640
to You're right when Democrats come in, it's katie bar

398
00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:25.079
the door.

399
00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:29.119
Yeah. Yeah, just assume the position because they're gonna they're

400
00:21:29.119 --> 00:21:31.119
gonna stick it to you. That's that's what and that's

401
00:21:31.160 --> 00:21:34.240
what they've done time and time again. And uh, you

402
00:21:34.279 --> 00:21:37.400
know John Dune and others. I mean, they need and

403
00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:39.519
I don't know, I think it's maybe too late. You know,

404
00:21:39.599 --> 00:21:42.799
you talk about having a sense of hopelessness. It's just

405
00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:47.279
to me, it is a loss of leadership. Uh and

406
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:49.759
and that's what's on display here that we're seeing clearly

407
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:52.640
and the voters, and the voters are gonna cast their

408
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:55.200
vote accordingly. You know, we got about a minute left.

409
00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:56.519
I'm gonna let you summarize it.

410
00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:56.759
Go in.

411
00:21:56.960 --> 00:22:00.200
Yeah, absolutely, we'll see. I mean again, there is there

412
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:02.519
are some glimmers of hope here that the Supreme Court

413
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:05.079
I think is poised in this Watson versus RNC case

414
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:08.079
to conclude that states can't have these sorts of laws

415
00:22:08.359 --> 00:22:11.359
that allow the collection of ballast days and weeks after elections,

416
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:13.319
so that that'll do anything. There was the Louise Ana

417
00:22:13.359 --> 00:22:16.000
versus Calai decision, which was from a couple of weeks ago,

418
00:22:16.240 --> 00:22:18.480
which again says that you know, you can't have the

419
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:21.799
you can't have these racially gerrymandered congressional districts. So there

420
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:24.960
are glimmers of hope out there. Scotus stands as a

421
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:27.559
bastion in a lot of ways, So look forward to

422
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:29.160
that in the coming weeks, some more decisions are going

423
00:22:29.200 --> 00:22:30.440
to be coming down and we can talk about that

424
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:31.039
as they arise.

425
00:22:31.599 --> 00:22:34.960
Well exactly, and of course, you know, we're grateful that

426
00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:37.319
you come on and break it down for us, because

427
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:41.000
you know, people are getting confused, Mike, and they're getting

428
00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:43.200
mixed messages, and of course you got the narrative from

429
00:22:43.200 --> 00:22:46.559
the media and all these other talking heads Hakeem Jeffreys

430
00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:48.839
and Chuck Schumer. They come on and you think, Okay,

431
00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:50.519
what spaceship did they just land in?

432
00:22:51.440 --> 00:22:56.079
I know, certainly not, Hugh, I know exactly they. I

433
00:22:56.119 --> 00:22:59.079
think I saw that today an individual who is an

434
00:22:59.079 --> 00:23:03.680
al Kada sympathizer is now the Democrat nominee for our

435
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:04.920
position in New Jersey.

436
00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:07.240
Yes, exactly, it's just right.

437
00:23:08.119 --> 00:23:12.319
Yeah, you have a segment of a political party that

438
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:15.680
has just completely gone off the rails, right, we got

439
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:16.519
a guard against it.

440
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:19.240
Yeah, without a doubt. We've got to be vigilant. But again,

441
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:21.079
it's the government of four by we the people that

442
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:25.240
we the people must be activated and participate. You cannot lose, hope,

443
00:23:25.319 --> 00:23:27.440
ladies and gentlemen, because what are we going to pass

444

445
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:34.759
and our grandkids and our great grandkids right now. Absolutely absolutely,

Hey we're back. When you glad you could joined us?

512
00:27:17.279 --> 00:27:21.640
Bill Martinez here along with doctor Wilfrid Riley, the professor

513
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:24.240
of political science at Kentucky State University. Hey, well, how

514
00:27:24.240 --> 00:27:26.119
are we doing pretty well?

515
00:27:26.160 --> 00:27:30.039
Do it pretty well? I noticed Pride Month just began yesterday.

516
00:27:30.079 --> 00:27:32.319
I'm starting to get these messages from like the Chicago

517
00:27:32.440 --> 00:27:35.400
Cubs and so on. So that's going on. But a good,

518
00:27:35.759 --> 00:27:36.240
good place.

519
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:40.000
Yeah, yeah, well, you know, it's an interesting time with all,

520
00:27:40.079 --> 00:27:42.720
you know, with the midterms coming up, and of course

521
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:46.680
Iran continues, and you know we've got you know, the

522
00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:50.440
Democrats are beside themselves. I mean, you got Jill back

523
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:54.880
on the trail, bringing back the nightmare that they thought

524
00:27:54.960 --> 00:27:56.759
was over. And then of course, first of all, it

525
00:27:56.799 --> 00:27:58.519
was a one hundred and seven days they had to

526
00:27:58.559 --> 00:28:01.079
be reminded with Kamala because you know, she had been

527
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:04.640
missing the spotlight and trying to sell books. I don't

528
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:06.200
know that she bought up a bunch of books like

529
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:08.200
Gavin Newsom. I guess that's one way to make sure

530
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:10.799
you can, you know, sell books, if you just buy

531
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:13.119
them yourself, right, Yeah, I.

532
00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:15.559
Mean celebrity book deals. You know, you don't want to

533
00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:18.759
sound bitter or anything, but celebrity book deals are often

534
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.920
pretty close to money laundering where I mean, you know,

535
00:28:23.319 --> 00:28:26.119
like the typical advance for a book is maybe fifty

536
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:28.960
sixty thousand dollars if you're good. Bill Plinton, I remember

537
00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:32.519
once got ten million lee old boy Mike Pince, you know,

538
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:35.240
nothing wrong with him, but similar think three or four million.

539
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:37.960
So you know, you get this amount of money, there's

540
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:41.799
not really any sales tie into it. But the third

541
00:28:41.839 --> 00:28:45.440
part of this is, yeah, your organization, your charity is

542
00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.200
normally expected to buy some of the books. They're going

543
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:50.359
to be deals with schools that are getting that book,

544
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:53.359
whether they wanted or not. Libraries they're getting that boy,

545
00:28:53.359 --> 00:28:55.400
whether they wanted or not. So when you look at

546
00:28:55.400 --> 00:29:00.640
what happened to you know, Bush Two's autobiography, Barack Obama's

547
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:04.440
four autobiographies, I mean those are that's generally something you're

548
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:06.319
going to find on a library shelf under the hit

549
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:08.880
or presidential that kind of thing. So Biden's not doing.

550
00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:13.240
That right exactly. Well, but now I guess Jill in

551
00:29:13.319 --> 00:29:15.359
lieu of Joe being able to do it, I mean

552
00:29:16.079 --> 00:29:18.599
he's not going to be able to do an autobiography.

553
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.920
I mean, you know, I don't know. I mean, it's

554
00:29:22.960 --> 00:29:25.640
just sad to hear all this stuff all over again.

555
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:28.839
Sat On one hand, the other hand, it's aggravating because

556
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:32.480
of what his presidency cost the American taxpayer.

557
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:36.359
Yeah, I mean, Joe Biden is a political opponent. I

558
00:29:36.400 --> 00:29:39.200
don't like him, but he was a pretty significant figure

559
00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:41.880
in American life for a long time. I mean uncle

560
00:29:41.960 --> 00:29:45.519
Joe Biden first ran for president I think nineteen eighty four.

561
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:47.119
I mean, he was one of those guys. It was

562
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:49.480
up on the stage with Gary Hart and that was

563
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:53.319
Biden dukaka. I mean the whole phone book full of

564
00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:55.400
candidates that lingered a little too long in the d's

565
00:29:55.440 --> 00:29:59.000
and the b's, as Pedrio Workwan said. And with that period,

566
00:29:59.039 --> 00:30:01.759
I mean he didn't get elected. Then he's been trying

567
00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:05.480
for thirty six forty more years. He finally took the

568
00:30:05.519 --> 00:30:08.559
top seed, and by that point he had visible mental decline.

569
00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:11.480
So there's something Shakespearean about that, I mean, right, the

570
00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:16.039
kind of manichet and manipulative second wife who also really

571
00:30:16.039 --> 00:30:18.680
wants the throne. Without getting too deep into that, he

572
00:30:18.759 --> 00:30:21.839
goes for it the last time he's not functionally more.

573
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:25.880
Somehow he wins, but then it becomes this humiliation ritual

574
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:28.440
where he's doing these events with the presidents of India

575
00:30:28.519 --> 00:30:31.200
and Russia, and he's barely functionally. He's clinging to life.

576
00:30:31.640 --> 00:30:35.000
And again I mean that Jill and the family didn't

577
00:30:35.039 --> 00:30:38.359
have the best relationship at that. Like Joe Biden recently

578
00:30:38.400 --> 00:30:41.480
said she didn't know Joe Biden was aging. She was

579
00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:44.240
taking some hits for how she'd been she'd been managing

580
00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:46.400
that and she said, well, how was I supposed to see?

581
00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:49.119
And the answer I think was just well, everyone could

582
00:30:49.160 --> 00:30:52.599
observe that what was going on with mister Biden, like

583
00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:55.200
he was talking to people that weren't there. So that's

584
00:30:55.319 --> 00:30:57.119
that's what happened. And now she's trying to play that

585
00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:59.839
off A little bit. Last thing on this that's the

586
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:02.160
Democrats are in a weird position because they don't really

587
00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:05.559
have a bench right now and candidates.

588
00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:07.519
Well that's what I was going to say, because they're

589
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:10.599
all over the place. I mean, you got here, you

590
00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:14.279
got Jill's book, you got Kamala's book, that going on

591
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:18.519
buddhajeg you know, I guess he's right now pulling better

592
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:22.279
than anybody. Newsome's kind of fading on the turn. But

593
00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:27.920
besides that, you got the Grant Platner issue James tell

594
00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:32.440
Rico in Texas, Mom Donnie, of course he's an ongoing nightmare.

595
00:31:32.640 --> 00:31:35.839
And then you got the two governors, Mikey, Cheryl and

596
00:31:35.960 --> 00:31:40.039
Abigail Spamberger. And then in contrast, let's go to LA

597
00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:43.519
and see a guy like Spencer Pratt who just says, hey,

598
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:47.240
to me, it's just observational politics. I think that's a

599
00:31:47.279 --> 00:31:50.039
new term. I like that he just says, hey, we

600
00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:53.319
see the problem. We call the problem out. People go, yeah,

601
00:31:53.319 --> 00:31:56.680
that's a problem. What solution you got? He's got solutions. Meanwhile,

602
00:31:56.720 --> 00:31:59.119
Karen Bass is going, you know, hey, I'm going to

603
00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:02.680
go meet with my donors and have some banquet chicken.

604
00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:07.200
I guess yeah, it was someone edgy but highly intelligent.

605
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:10.119
So probably Steve Sailor that said that there's not a

606
00:32:10.200 --> 00:32:15.440
distinction in his mind between like data quote unquote capital

607
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:18.039
D data what we work with, and just real life.

608
00:32:18.400 --> 00:32:20.759
So Spencer Pratt, I think, is an Angelino. He's a

609
00:32:20.759 --> 00:32:23.839
guy from LA and he's walking outside in what used

610
00:32:23.880 --> 00:32:26.880
to be a nice neighborhood and he's seeing people defecating

611
00:32:26.920 --> 00:32:29.200
on the street and setting up tents and so on,

612
00:32:29.240 --> 00:32:31.440
and there's an element of just I mean in Kentucky

613
00:32:31.519 --> 00:32:33.519
and just chase that guy away with a shotgun. But

614
00:32:33.559 --> 00:32:36.240
there's an element of like, what's the problem with this?

615
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:39.920
How could this be allowed? It seems very easy to fix,

616
00:32:40.039 --> 00:32:42.599
and I think that's resonating with a lot of people.

617
00:32:42.759 --> 00:32:45.720
I mean that scene in his ad where all of

618
00:32:45.759 --> 00:32:49.279
the politicians are at this table in the French laundry,

619
00:32:49.279 --> 00:32:52.759
which really happened during COVID. I mean, Gavin Newson would

620
00:32:52.759 --> 00:32:55.440
book like the main room of the French laundry during COVID.

621
00:32:55.759 --> 00:32:58.920
But they're all laughing, and Kamala Harris's I think dressed

622
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:01.680
as the joker because the crazy cackle and they're saying

623
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:03.799
like or it's going to keep doing it, you know.

624
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:06.759
I think that really relates to how most residents of

625
00:33:06.799 --> 00:33:10.480
big cities feel. I mean, I'm from Chicago, as you know,

626
00:33:10.559 --> 00:33:14.039
and the mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, is you know,

627
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:16.519
on part with any of these guys. He recently has

628
00:33:16.599 --> 00:33:20.079
begun the practice of referring to mass riots as teen trends,

629
00:33:20.519 --> 00:33:22.960
so not even team takeovers like the police every day

630
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:25.720
will announce it. They're tracking teen trends around the city

631
00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:29.400
and tell you where not to shop. And there's kind

632
00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:31.359
of just a reaction. Why not put some cops there

633
00:33:31.400 --> 00:33:33.640
if you know what train stations are coming out of

634
00:33:33.640 --> 00:33:36.920
and arrest everybody. Well, that would hamper our scholars and

635
00:33:36.920 --> 00:33:39.599
their pursuits of you know. So there's this whole thing

636
00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:41.960
that Pratt is doing a good job of pointing out.

637
00:33:42.319 --> 00:33:44.920
And again, the Democrats have a terrible lift of candidates.

638
00:33:44.920 --> 00:33:48.599
I mean tallar Rico is yeah, I mean, that's yeah.

639
00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:52.880
I actually I confused tallar Rico with Pete Buddhagen yesterday

640
00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:55.480
because there's so many of this kind of Mackenzie model

641
00:33:55.519 --> 00:34:02.240
of young, slightly effeminate, stylish democrat. So the twitter account

642
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:05.119
Damien Tole, who I enjoyed trading banter with back and forth,

643
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:08.239
funny guy, kind of union Democratic lawyer, but he posted

644
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:09.960
a picture of Talleriico and he was like, well, this

645
00:34:10.000 --> 00:34:11.920
is one candidate that's not gonna have problems with women,

646
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:14.599
saying apparently he's faithful to his girls. And I said, well,

647
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:16.400
I retweeted and said we Pete Botager, of course he's

648
00:34:16.400 --> 00:34:19.239
not gonna have problems with women. And people started pointing out, well, no, no,

649
00:34:19.360 --> 00:34:21.920
that's the other one. They're like four of them like this,

650
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:25.679
like these little guys that played some JV baseball and

651
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:28.880
have a cowboy hat on. So anyway, I mean, I

652
00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:31.039
don't know what they're going to do with that kind

653
00:34:31.039 --> 00:34:34.159
of bench. Nationally, I mean in the black community, we

654
00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:36.840
have our strikes over weaknesses, but like Buddhage are just

655
00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:40.079
pulling at zero percent. And I think his whole thing

656
00:34:40.159 --> 00:34:43.320
of like I'm a folk see gay man that adopted

657
00:34:43.360 --> 00:34:46.360
two young African American children and a little blond guy

658
00:34:46.360 --> 00:34:48.000
from Texas. I mean, people are just looking at the

659
00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:51.639
I don't know, I'm not going for I think that's

660
00:34:51.679 --> 00:34:52.559
You're gonna get a lot of that.

661
00:34:53.000 --> 00:34:57.559
Well, and that's the thing. I mean, we're talking Texas here, Texas.

662
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:00.880
I mean talk about you know, somebody making a mistake

663
00:35:01.039 --> 00:35:04.719
in going into central casting and coming up with the

664
00:35:04.760 --> 00:35:09.280
exact opposite that would fit you know, the Texas Bravado, right.

665
00:35:10.480 --> 00:35:14.119
Yeah. Well it's the thing with Taller Rico. Some journalists

666
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:15.840
referred to him as the woke Billy Graham, which I

667
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:17.480
think is an insult old Billy Graham, but.

668
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:19.960
My gosha, Yeah, but you get.

669
00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:23.280
Where they're coming from, because like tall Rico's whole thing

670
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:26.039
is I'm not going to do a fake Texas accent,

671
00:35:26.079 --> 00:35:30.719
but like I'm a diehard Christian seminarian and that's why

672
00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:33.440
I believe in abortion until birth and a lot like

673
00:35:33.480 --> 00:35:35.920
a lot of the Republicans are bad, but the Democrats

674
00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:39.880
are like Monty Python SNL character bad. There's a guy

675
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:44.360
in Tennessee who's the black businessman, who is the student

676
00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:48.000
government president at Bowden. The first time I saw this guy,

677
00:35:48.159 --> 00:35:51.760
even though Clark, I think Lee, but even though like

678
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:54.039
I'm across the aisle, I was like, Okay, well, I

679
00:35:54.079 --> 00:35:56.320
don't have any problem with the black business class running

680
00:35:56.360 --> 00:35:58.679
for office. You don't see what he does, but he

681
00:35:58.760 --> 00:36:02.920
immediately transformed to this fake Southern African American preacher type.

682
00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:04.000
Have you ever seen that clip?

683
00:36:04.599 --> 00:36:07.000
No, I haven't seen it. I mean, you're going in

684
00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:10.880
there and I'm thinking, I'm flashing back when Hillary channel

685
00:36:11.039 --> 00:36:16.639
channels her her black spiritual mama. It's oh, it's grady,

686
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:17.599
but it's worse.

687
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:20.679
Huh yo, It's much worse. Yeah, there's there's a famous clip.

688
00:36:20.679 --> 00:36:22.920
I would encourage your listeners to look this up, like

689
00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:27.440
Tennessee State Assembly chief for whatever Boden b O W

690
00:36:27.679 --> 00:36:31.920
D O I N and then Bowden in later like

691
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:34.400
the first clip is him saying like, yeah, I want

692
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:36.800
to work across the aisle with the Republicans and with

693
00:36:36.920 --> 00:36:41.280
local business communities to help my career as Boden student

694
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:44.199
government president. That's actually an influential position because of our endowment.

695
00:36:44.199 --> 00:36:47.239
It's just totally bam bam bam normal. And then the

696
00:36:47.280 --> 00:36:51.000
second clip is him standing in the Tennessee Rotunda and

697
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:54.400
he's grown like a patche mustache and an afro, and

698
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:57.519
he's woring men's warehouse suit. His first suit of the

699
00:36:57.519 --> 00:36:59.960
first Cup was Brooks Brothers. Like, not that that matters,

700
00:37:00.440 --> 00:37:03.960
but he's talking in this fake creature cadence, like and

701
00:37:04.039 --> 00:37:08.840
they say that Saturdays going on alone time, but Sunday

702
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:10.079
is going to come.

703
00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:12.679
Oh here it is. Hey, let's say auntell you what

704
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:14.559
we gotta go and break. We'll pick it up on

the other side. Mark from well after this, stay with us.

706
00:37:18.280 --> 00:37:22.800

00:38:17.519 --> 00:38:21.320
This report is sponsored by IBM as AI transforms how

725
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:24.599
work gets done. A new IBM CEO study finds success

726
00:38:24.639 --> 00:38:28.760
will depend on how quickly organizations redesign their workforce. CEOs

727
00:38:28.760 --> 00:38:32.079
agree people are the priority. Eighty three percent of CEOs

728
00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:35.840
say AI success depends more on people's adoption than the technology,

729
00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:39.239
but many organizations are still struggling to redesign roles, build

730
00:38:39.280 --> 00:38:42.519
new skills, and rethink how teams collaborate. This gap is

731
00:38:42.559 --> 00:38:45.639
already showing up in the workplace. CEOs say only twenty

732
00:38:45.639 --> 00:38:48.079
five percent of employees are using AI as part of

733
00:38:48.119 --> 00:38:50.920
their jobs, even though eighty six percent believe their workforce

734
00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:54.360
have the skills to collaborate with AI. Looking ahead, CEOs

735
00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:57.320
expect the impact on jobs to accelerate by twenty twenty eight.

736
00:38:57.360 --> 00:38:59.960
Twenty nine percent of employees may need reskilling for different

737
00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:03.559
while fifty nine percent will likely require upskilling to perform

738
00:39:03.559 --> 00:39:06.480
their current roles more effectively. The findings suggest the real

739
00:39:06.559 --> 00:39:10.000
challenge isn't just adopting AI, it's aligning jobs, skills, and

740
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:13.119
ways of working with the speed of AI transformation. To

779
00:41:19.639 --> 00:41:21.880
We're back when he had. Doctor Wilfrid Roberts, professor of

780
00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:25.480
political science at Kentucky State University, author Taboo Ten facts

781
00:41:25.480 --> 00:41:27.639
you can't talk about e lies my liberal teacher John me.

782
00:41:27.719 --> 00:41:31.639
It's all there anyway. So just to kind of summarize here,

783
00:41:33.079 --> 00:41:37.760
you know, Voden's just really put on putting on the act. Huh.

784
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:41.559
But it was just an amazing transition from like and

785
00:41:41.639 --> 00:41:44.320
Barack Obama did this too to some extent where he

786
00:41:44.519 --> 00:41:47.719
if you if you ever watched Obama's first famous speech

787
00:41:47.760 --> 00:41:50.559
in the Illinois legislature, I mean it was then running

788
00:41:50.559 --> 00:41:52.800
for office, running I think for the presidents of years later.

789
00:41:53.280 --> 00:41:55.679
But I mean his pitch line is there's no blue America,

790
00:41:55.719 --> 00:41:58.039
there's no red America. You know, I'm a black guy,

791
00:41:58.119 --> 00:42:00.360
that's what they call me. But my father's from Kenya,

792
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:02.159
my mom's white. I love my mom. It's just the

793
00:42:02.159 --> 00:42:06.199
most conventional normal stuff. Apple Pie and Labrador retrievers and

794
00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:09.119
all that, and then later when he actually got elected,

795
00:42:09.159 --> 00:42:11.239
I mean, Deness just Susan did a whole documentary on

796
00:42:11.320 --> 00:42:16.880
his references to your third world colonialism and Mound Fenan

797
00:42:17.039 --> 00:42:19.880
and so on. So politicians do this, democrats do it more.

798
00:42:19.920 --> 00:42:22.639
But this Tennessee thing is the craziest transition I've ever

799
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:24.480
seen because you can see the guy side by side

800
00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:27.760
a year apart, and they've just got a lot of

801
00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:31.559
these guys. They've got Tallarico, who again literally will say

802
00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:34.679
things like my God tells me that abortion is a

803
00:42:34.719 --> 00:42:37.599
decision between a woman, her child and the doctor. You know,

804
00:42:38.039 --> 00:42:40.480
he has Bible verses on point for each one of

805
00:42:40.519 --> 00:42:44.480
his crazy like left of castro positions. You've got Budhajed, who,

806
00:42:44.719 --> 00:42:47.920
you know, his soldier said he was a good guy personally,

807
00:42:48.039 --> 00:42:52.039
but who became this again standard cookie cutter lib but

808
00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:54.679
who also happens to be gay and to have a

809
00:42:54.760 --> 00:42:57.840
somewhat flamboyant husband, who's an inter city school teacher, and

810
00:42:57.840 --> 00:42:59.920
who says this crazy stuff on Twitter that Buddha did

811
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:02.840
have to disavow. Like every one of these candidates is

812
00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:07.039
just Biden's eighty six. They're all just unbelievably bad. Like

813
00:43:07.239 --> 00:43:10.440
Carl Harris is also kind of SNL level. I mean,

814
00:43:10.480 --> 00:43:13.480
with the wine drinking and the millionaire husband and just

815
00:43:13.519 --> 00:43:14.280
like all of it.

816
00:43:14.800 --> 00:43:15.400
I don't know.

817
00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:17.559
How many of them are going to have any chance

818
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:20.199
of taking a serious national office.

819
00:43:20.559 --> 00:43:24.800
Yeah, because yeah, I mean they're not able to cross over.

820
00:43:24.880 --> 00:43:29.079
I mean they've got, you know, a very loud splinter

821
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:33.920
of the Democratic is certainly the radical left. But I'm

822
00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:36.360
not even sure that Kamala Harris could even claim that.

823
00:43:36.519 --> 00:43:39.639
I mean, they've taken three steps away from her. I mean,

824
00:43:39.679 --> 00:43:43.840
she's it's like bad news for her, and you know,

825
00:43:43.920 --> 00:43:46.400
she's just trying to find some relevance. She may just

826
00:43:46.440 --> 00:43:48.599
have to, you know, walk away and just say I'm

827
00:43:48.639 --> 00:43:51.280
a historic figure. I was the first you know, black

828
00:43:51.400 --> 00:43:54.039
vice president of the United States of America.

829
00:43:54.199 --> 00:43:57.079
Call it a day, you know, and I think a

830
00:43:57.079 --> 00:43:58.360
lot of people how to do that. I mean, like

831
00:43:58.440 --> 00:44:01.639
Joe Biden was the first vice other he was one

832
00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:04.159
of I mean, we had plenty of irishmen in politics,

833
00:44:04.159 --> 00:44:05.639
so that did that didn't really cross any lives. But

834
00:44:05.800 --> 00:44:07.280
I was the first. He was the vice president of

835
00:44:07.320 --> 00:44:10.440
the first black president, first veeper from one of the

836
00:44:10.480 --> 00:44:13.480
smaller states. I mean like you can literally just say, okay,

837
00:44:13.519 --> 00:44:16.880
I'm getting two pages in the books already, and nobody,

838
00:44:17.199 --> 00:44:19.440
I mean, you're you've got to worry about you know,

839
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:21.320
where your name's written in a higher place in a

840
00:44:21.320 --> 00:44:22.599
couple of years. You know, I might as well hang

841
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:25.440
out with the grandkids. So I encourage a lot of

842
00:44:25.440 --> 00:44:27.559
people to take that path. I doubt there are any

843
00:44:27.679 --> 00:44:31.599
older politicians listening. Listening, but just that that grubbing for

844
00:44:31.760 --> 00:44:35.360
power until the last moment of your life. It has

845
00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:37.159
some problems. And I'm not I'm not I know this guy.

846
00:44:37.159 --> 00:44:39.119
I'm not gonna say he did this, but uh, even

847
00:44:39.320 --> 00:44:42.039
Senator McConnell down here in Kentucky, I mean, he got

848
00:44:42.199 --> 00:44:43.840
he was fighting in there until he got to the

849
00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:45.039
point he started having many.

850
00:44:44.880 --> 00:44:46.320
Strokes, right exactly.

851
00:44:46.360 --> 00:44:48.760
We'd be watching him down here on television and he'd

852
00:44:48.800 --> 00:44:50.960
be saying some I'm perfectly coherent about a budget bill.

853
00:44:51.000 --> 00:44:53.360
Then he just stopped for thirty seconds, right, And there

854
00:44:53.400 --> 00:44:56.119
was a polite convention among our journalists to sort of

855
00:44:56.159 --> 00:44:58.920
just say, it looks like he's thinking about something. But

856
00:44:59.119 --> 00:45:01.920
you go on, and that probably is not ideal. There's

857
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:04.400
a time to come home and run the farm.

858
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:09.960
Right exactly, And because things like that set a precedent

859
00:45:10.519 --> 00:45:14.400
and it opens the door for you know, a feeble

860
00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:19.159
president like Joe Biden. Right, I mean, this is all consequential.

861
00:45:19.440 --> 00:45:23.519
All right, let's talk, let's talk a run. What are

862
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:24.360
we doing here?

863
00:45:26.039 --> 00:45:27.639
Yeah, I don't know. I think that I think this

864
00:45:27.679 --> 00:45:29.920
is one of you know, big Trump's. I haven't seen

865
00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:32.320
that many bit genuine blunders. And I think the blunder

866
00:45:32.400 --> 00:45:35.559
is not finishing the war. Yeah, you know with and

867
00:45:35.599 --> 00:45:38.000
this is this is a consistent problem. I mean, like

868
00:45:38.079 --> 00:45:40.039
growing up, a lot of my friend's dads had fought

869
00:45:40.079 --> 00:45:43.159
in Vietnam, and people consistently say, well, we lost the

870
00:45:43.239 --> 00:45:45.199
Vietnam War. We never had a chance of the Vietnam War.

871
00:45:45.239 --> 00:45:47.480
I think everyone on the right who reads history knows

872
00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:51.400
that's not trip like it pursuing the war more aggressively

873
00:45:51.480 --> 00:45:53.960
early on, I better bombing a couple of damns if

874
00:45:53.960 --> 00:45:56.360
we went to cross that line, but it probably led

875
00:45:56.480 --> 00:45:59.599
to American victory in the field. We just didn't do that.

876
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:04.639
We pursued kind of a halfway their policy. For years.

877
00:46:04.719 --> 00:46:07.679
The media was constantly on the troops, there were major

878
00:46:07.719 --> 00:46:10.239
protests stateside, and in the end, nothing happened. It was

879
00:46:10.239 --> 00:46:12.760
an inconclusive war, and if anything, we failed the other

880
00:46:12.800 --> 00:46:16.199
side and held the field. This similarly, like on the

881
00:46:16.320 --> 00:46:20.199
left and on the right, also there were these constant

882
00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:22.639
calls from day one of this better not go on

883
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:24.840
more than four or five weeks. I noticed, that's exactly

884
00:46:24.840 --> 00:46:27.480
when we stopped. By the way, I don't want a

885
00:46:27.519 --> 00:46:30.480
single loss in this war. I don't care about gas prices.

886
00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:33.119
I don't want one did troop and you empathize with

887
00:46:33.199 --> 00:46:36.000
some of it, but what was basically happening is that

888
00:46:36.039 --> 00:46:38.199
we were winning the war. We had I mean forty

889
00:46:38.239 --> 00:46:41.480
eight members of Iran's inner governmental circle I believe were killed.

890
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:46.039
They had lost several thousand men, and you don't want

891
00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:49.360
to boast about that, and we'd lost twenty. We had

892
00:46:49.360 --> 00:46:52.440
them pushed back. They were barely holding the straight, and

893
00:46:52.480 --> 00:46:55.559
then the war kind of stopped. So now barely you know,

894
00:46:55.599 --> 00:46:57.880
close only counts and horseshoes and hand grenades, right, So

895
00:46:57.960 --> 00:47:00.840
I mean, they still hold the straight, and there's this

896
00:47:01.000 --> 00:47:03.679
constant back and forth about who's going to let whose

897
00:47:03.719 --> 00:47:06.280
ships in. We've got our guys at one end, they've

898
00:47:06.280 --> 00:47:09.320
got guns along literally the what do you come the

899
00:47:09.320 --> 00:47:15.360
banks of the area. Yeah, it's basically a big river.

900
00:47:15.480 --> 00:47:18.119
I mean the Mississippi is two miles across at its

901
00:47:18.119 --> 00:47:21.400
widest point, straightforward moves its narrow as it is four

902
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:25.199
point seven. So it's very easy for even a ragtag

903
00:47:25.320 --> 00:47:28.599
militia not has a lot of the hoothies to command

904
00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:31.239
and control a lot of this area. So we we

905
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:33.599
didn't push that last couple of weeks. And now we're

906
00:47:33.639 --> 00:47:36.519
doing this, and we're negotiating with Middle Easterners who tend

907
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:38.760
to be pretty good negotiators on both the Jewish and

908
00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:41.280
Arab side, so they'll say things and walk them back

909
00:47:41.400 --> 00:47:43.960
a little bit. And Trump, I think, is a big

910
00:47:44.000 --> 00:47:46.800
blustery real estate guy, and he'll sort of take sometimes

911
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:48.800
take the first thing they say and post it on

912
00:47:48.960 --> 00:47:51.800
Twitter and truth and say, well, looks like we're about

913
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:53.800
to reach a deal. And every time I see that,

914
00:47:53.840 --> 00:47:55.760
I kind of went, It's like, no, you're not. You're

915
00:47:55.800 --> 00:47:58.039
going to ask for something else. They've got their best

916
00:47:58.079 --> 00:48:00.599
guy at the table too, so it's it's just it

917
00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:03.679
is what it is. It's not a huge deal except

918
00:48:03.679 --> 00:48:08.119
maybe at the pump, but it definitely we're not pursuing

919
00:48:08.159 --> 00:48:09.920
the best strategy anymore.

920
00:48:10.639 --> 00:48:12.880
Well, I agree with you. I thought that this should

921
00:48:12.920 --> 00:48:15.480
have been done expeditiously. Had it been done that way,

922
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:18.519
the media would have had less to talk about. The

923
00:48:18.559 --> 00:48:22.280
Democrat talking points would have had less. Uh, we'd been

924
00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:25.119
over and gas prices to be down. And we're often

925
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:28.480
rolling and dealing with some issues before the midterms, like oh,

926
00:48:28.599 --> 00:48:31.199
let's get the let's get the Save Act. Huh, let's

927
00:48:31.199 --> 00:48:34.840
get the Voting Act done, Let's get reconciliation done. And then,

928
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:38.800
you know, President Trump he has to acquiesce now and

929
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:42.320
fall back a little bit. He had his you know,

930
00:48:42.400 --> 00:48:45.440
his fun you know money that he was given because

931
00:48:45.480 --> 00:48:49.719
of you know, the way the government had weaponized against him,

932
00:48:50.079 --> 00:48:53.079
and so they paid him one point seven seven six

933
00:48:53.480 --> 00:48:56.760
billion dollars. And he says, okay, I'm going to put

934
00:48:56.760 --> 00:48:58.880
that I'm not going to take the money typical for him.

935
00:48:58.880 --> 00:49:00.559
I don't need to. I'm not take the money. He's

936
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:03.960
still not taking a bay check lest the Democrats forget Okay,

937
00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:06.280
So he says, no, I'm going to put this into

938
00:49:06.360 --> 00:49:09.760
an arena, into a category, into a fun year. Then

939
00:49:09.800 --> 00:49:11.880
we can heal some of these people, especially you know,

940
00:49:11.920 --> 00:49:15.320
these people that were so damaged on you know, January,

941
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:18.679
the sixth, not to mention others that suffered under the

942
00:49:18.679 --> 00:49:22.519
weaponization of the Biden you know, Justice Department.

943
00:49:23.559 --> 00:49:26.280
Yeah, so they are two major points there. First of all,

944
00:49:26.320 --> 00:49:28.360
for anyone out there in a leadership role, like if

945
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:30.360
you're facing a tough choice, like I always try to

946
00:49:30.360 --> 00:49:33.519
make my worst phone calls in the morning, like angry,

947
00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:36.920
recalcitrant Kentucky clients, like just you got to get all

948
00:49:37.000 --> 00:49:38.840
that out of the way, then you can relax if

949
00:49:38.880 --> 00:49:41.480
you're a golfer to do that in the afternoon. And

950
00:49:41.519 --> 00:49:43.599
it's the same thing with this, like had we pushed

951
00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:47.280
for one more week, I mean, the the Elitiandian units

952
00:49:47.280 --> 00:49:49.280
are pretty good, there would have been deaths on both sides.

953
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:51.119
We have actually been able to sit them down at

954
00:49:51.119 --> 00:49:52.800
the table from a position of strength and say this

955
00:49:52.840 --> 00:49:55.119
war is oh so, I mean, that would have been

956
00:49:55.239 --> 00:49:59.199
much less painful than this dragging on, dragging on, which

957
00:49:59.239 --> 00:50:03.000
is also killing people like has Belah fired a major

958
00:50:03.119 --> 00:50:06.719
artillery barrage like yesterday? And I actually I don't know

959
00:50:06.760 --> 00:50:09.280
how these I don't know how we can have a

960
00:50:09.320 --> 00:50:12.920
situation where major countries are criticized for everything that they do,

961
00:50:13.639 --> 00:50:17.239
but the third world dictatorships can do the craziest stuff

962
00:50:17.239 --> 00:50:19.679
in the world, and it's just waved off. That's a

963
00:50:19.719 --> 00:50:22.599
real problem if you're fighting for our side, like had

964
00:50:22.760 --> 00:50:25.000
Israel done what has Ballad did, there would have been

965
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:28.599
months of hysteria. You a genocide from the sky, the

966
00:50:28.679 --> 00:50:31.639
death birds are flying, this sort of thing. But anyway,

967
00:50:31.679 --> 00:50:36.039
I mean, making the painful decision early is is good.

968
00:50:36.199 --> 00:50:39.559
I think second thing that I I mean, we're criticizing

969
00:50:39.599 --> 00:50:41.639
Trump on this, I do want to shout out kind

970
00:50:41.679 --> 00:50:45.480
of the innovative stuff that he vanced, Rubio so on

971
00:50:46.039 --> 00:50:48.119
have been doing. I mean, they're actually following up on

972
00:50:48.159 --> 00:50:51.920
this fraud story. So they actually investigated the stuff Nick

973
00:50:51.960 --> 00:50:54.199
Shirley came up with, which seemed a little edgy, a

974
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:56.000
little out there. If they found out about eighty percent

975
00:50:56.039 --> 00:50:58.480
of it was true. So they're actually they're going to

976
00:50:58.519 --> 00:51:00.679
send some people to jail. They're investigating lot Omark.

977
00:51:01.079 --> 00:51:03.239
They need to be there needs to be people going

978
00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:06.000
to jail. Will this this thing because people aren't going

979
00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:08.920
to jail and they're getting away with it. It's infecting

980
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:12.559
the culture because other people thinking, well, why should I

981
00:51:12.599 --> 00:51:15.760
be concerned about stealing? You know, they're you know, Nancy

982
00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:19.960
Pelosi's stealing. Everybody's stealing so now and the general consensus,

983
00:51:20.000 --> 00:51:23.239
particularly in California, speaking Nick Shirley, you can take a

984
00:51:23.320 --> 00:51:25.000
thousand dollars and not go to jail.

985
00:51:26.679 --> 00:51:30.000
Yeah, most people are reasonably honorable in the sense of like,

986
00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:32.960
won't physically or sexually hurt a kid, and thank God

987
00:51:33.000 --> 00:51:34.960
for that, because you can't enforce the law against every

988
00:51:35.000 --> 00:51:37.960
person all the time, although in the coming tech era

989
00:51:38.119 --> 00:51:40.199
you might be able to which everyone will hate. But anyway,

990
00:51:40.760 --> 00:51:43.440
but most people, when it comes to things like theft

991
00:51:43.480 --> 00:51:46.880
from large retail stores, there's an element of honor. But

992
00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:49.360
a lot of what prevents that is just the idea

993
00:51:49.519 --> 00:51:51.480
if I do that, I'm going to get an a

994
00:51:51.639 --> 00:51:54.320
misdemeanor charge, I'm going to go to jail for six months,

995
00:51:54.320 --> 00:51:56.800
I'll lose my job. I can't do that. If you're

996
00:51:56.800 --> 00:52:01.920
in a situation where that absolutely doesn't exist, you're gonna

997
00:52:01.920 --> 00:52:03.679
see theft on the part of a third or more

998
00:52:03.719 --> 00:52:06.639
of people, and things are gonna become unsustainable. That, by

999
00:52:06.639 --> 00:52:09.000
the way, not racism, is why there aren't a lot

1000
00:52:09.039 --> 00:52:11.360
of say, apple stores in the hood, you know. But

1001
00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:14.360
if that attitude spreads throughout the country, we're gonna have problems.

1002
00:52:14.400 --> 00:52:16.079
So it's good to see, good to see people getting

1003
00:52:16.119 --> 00:52:18.280
jailed for this. But there have been a couple of

1004
00:52:18.280 --> 00:52:21.119
these sort of edgy moves. I mean you mentioned one

1005
00:52:21.159 --> 00:52:23.039
of them a bit earlier, but I would also shout out,

1006
00:52:23.639 --> 00:52:27.800
they're indicting Hassan Piker. Yes, so we again, this is

1007
00:52:27.840 --> 00:52:30.719
this like the Hesbaalah committing war crimes and no one caring.

1008
00:52:31.000 --> 00:52:33.920
We've had this whole culture of these online streamers. I

1009
00:52:33.960 --> 00:52:36.519
don't know how much you've been following this, but doing

1010
00:52:36.679 --> 00:52:38.960
just crazy stuff. I mean, even on the right, we

1011
00:52:39.000 --> 00:52:41.840
recently saw Chud the Builder get arrested because he will

1012
00:52:42.039 --> 00:52:45.039
Wanta basically getting in a duel. But on the left

1013
00:52:45.039 --> 00:52:49.440
there's this entire culture of it. So Hassan took a

1014
00:52:49.480 --> 00:52:55.239
flotilla to Cuba and they were giving solar panels, they

1015
00:52:55.280 --> 00:52:57.639
were giving technology it could be used to produce arms.

1016
00:52:57.679 --> 00:52:59.800
They were giving money. They're handing out stacks of cash

1017
00:52:59.840 --> 00:53:04.280
to people in Havana. This is an interemy country. And

1018
00:53:04.400 --> 00:53:07.480
Trump and his administration finally said, okay, like if I

1019
00:53:07.480 --> 00:53:09.519
have to see this video once again, we're inviting the guy.

1020
00:53:09.960 --> 00:53:11.239
Yes they did, and they did.

1021
00:53:11.280 --> 00:53:13.320
You know, so I think that we are seeing some

1022
00:53:13.400 --> 00:53:15.960
kind of moves you wouldn't see from too many administrations.

1023
00:53:15.960 --> 00:53:18.159
But hopefully we can get a run off the table.

1024
00:53:18.559 --> 00:53:20.760
I'm with you on that. He's the professor of political

1025
00:53:20.760 --> 00:53:23.599
science at Kentucky State University the author of Taboo, Ten

1026
00:53:23.679 --> 00:53:25.800
Facts you Can't Talk About, The one and only Doctor

1027
00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:28.079
Wilfrid Riley. Thank you, will take care, have a good one.

1028
00:53:28.559 --> 00:53:28.840
Thank you.

1029
00:53:28.920 --> 00:53:29.159
Bill.

1030
00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:33.960
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

1031
00:53:34.159 --> 00:53:37.760
You're spending more, you are making the same or less money.

1032
00:53:38.119 --> 00:53:41.000
So what do you do? You rack up credit card debt.

1033
00:53:41.079 --> 00:53:44.840
That's what you do. It's not your fault, it's the economy.

1034
00:53:45.119 --> 00:53:47.599
And guess what If you rack up too much credit

1035
00:53:47.679 --> 00:53:50.320
card debt, like some of us, you can't pay your bills.

1036
00:53:50.679 --> 00:53:53.599
Then the credit card companies, as nice as they are,

1037
00:53:53.800 --> 00:53:57.800
start hounding you for money. Then you start your downward spiral.

1038
00:53:58.400 --> 00:54:00.519
A smart thing for you to do is to call

1039
00:54:00.599 --> 00:54:03.920

1040

00:54:27.079 --> 00:54:35.360
two eight four thirteen forty nine.

1048
00:54:36.079 --> 00:54:38.079
Getting America back on track.

1049
00:54:38.400 --> 00:54:41.800
Bill Martinez Live, Hey, good morning America.

1050
00:54:41.880 --> 00:54:42.400
Six minutes.

1051
00:54:42.440 --> 00:54:44.440
Have to help you out right now. And we've got Michael.

1052
00:54:44.480 --> 00:54:45.119
Let's with us.

1053
00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:46.760
Say Michael, how are you do?

1054
00:54:46.840 --> 00:54:49.320
A bad death? It is always a lot going on

1055
00:54:49.920 --> 00:54:51.960
at the Capitol, a lot going on on the hill,

1056
00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:55.920
and uh, that's no different than today, right.

1057
00:54:55.920 --> 00:54:58.440
Mike is, of course the law enforcement veteran and CEO,

1058
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:03.199
founder of invest First of all, let's tackle this deal

1059
00:55:03.239 --> 00:55:07.239
at Delaney. You know, this facility there, what a what

1060
00:55:07.320 --> 00:55:10.800
a hot mess. And the governor's mishandling is three ways

1061
00:55:10.840 --> 00:55:14.280
to Sunday. You know, she's finally backed off a little

1062
00:55:14.320 --> 00:55:19.360
bit and offering some support, but this thing is just

1063
00:55:19.360 --> 00:55:23.199
just absurd. You know what she's done in talking about well,

1064
00:55:23.280 --> 00:55:27.159
she needs to get you know, Ice out of there

1065
00:55:27.519 --> 00:55:31.960
because it's a disturbance to their community. No, these people,

1066
00:55:32.039 --> 00:55:35.679
outsiders are a disturbance to the community. And your answer

1067
00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:40.079
is let's close down Delaney and let's release all the prisoners.

1068
00:55:40.320 --> 00:55:43.400
You want to see a disturbance in your community. Let's

1069
00:55:43.519 --> 00:55:47.760
release all those criminals that have raped kids, have killed people,

1070
00:55:48.679 --> 00:55:53.840
you know, in every kind of unimaginable offense and criminal offense.

1071
00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:56.559
And you want that in your neighborhood. Good luck.

1072
00:55:57.280 --> 00:55:59.280
Well, I'll tell you. But we've got some great news

1073
00:55:59.320 --> 00:56:03.840
for surely, and that is yesterday afternoon the president's sign

1074
00:56:03.880 --> 00:56:08.440
in executive order classifying ANTIFUD. Now is a terrorist organization,

1075
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:12.440
going to go after all their funding. And you know,

1076
00:56:12.480 --> 00:56:14.960
they're the ones that are outside sources of sorrels and

1077
00:56:15.000 --> 00:56:18.760
people like that are funding them. As you mentioned, this

1078
00:56:18.840 --> 00:56:22.079
is not New Jerseys. This is people bringing all over

1079
00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:25.000
the country out of town higher guns, shall we see

1080
00:56:25.400 --> 00:56:27.800
to create these dis services. Well, now we're going to

1081
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:29.639
go after and lock up the people that are putting

1082
00:56:29.679 --> 00:56:31.719
the money up to hire them. That's good to see

1083
00:56:31.719 --> 00:56:35.320
how fast it's participated, real quickly, Bill, I mean it's hey,

1084
00:56:35.320 --> 00:56:36.920
if they want to go to jail, more part to it,

1085
00:56:37.039 --> 00:56:38.039
we're happy to accommody.

1086
00:56:38.519 --> 00:56:39.159
Yeah, exactly.

1087
00:56:39.159 --> 00:56:41.000
I don't think they should be disappointed if that's where

1088
00:56:41.000 --> 00:56:41.800
they want to go, do you.

1089
00:56:42.360 --> 00:56:45.599
But we're going to make sure of it. In fact,

1090
00:56:45.639 --> 00:56:47.519
we're going to make it rusty for them. Bill, give

1091
00:56:47.519 --> 00:56:48.360
them a real full.

1092
00:56:48.199 --> 00:56:50.000
Experience, right exactly.

1093
00:56:50.039 --> 00:56:52.400
Then they can see for themselves the kind of meals

1094
00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:54.800
that are served there in Delaney, right.

1095
00:56:55.280 --> 00:56:57.480
Exactly, no question about it. They're going to see just

1096
00:56:57.480 --> 00:56:58.840
how well fed they really are.

1097
00:56:59.320 --> 00:57:02.400
Well, you know all this posturing and you know the

1098
00:57:02.440 --> 00:57:05.480
Democrats that they see something. I mean, this is ram Emmanuel.

1099
00:57:05.960 --> 00:57:09.679
Don't allow a good crisis to go to waste, even

1100
00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:12.199
if you have to create one. Whether you're the Southern

1101
00:57:12.239 --> 00:57:16.119
Poverty Law Center or the Democratic Party, they are experts

1102
00:57:16.159 --> 00:57:19.920
in creating this kind of chaos. They have no solution.

1103
00:57:20.119 --> 00:57:22.360
I mean, they're not coming in saying, hey, Michael, I

1104
00:57:22.360 --> 00:57:24.079
think if we did this, this would be better, or

1105
00:57:24.119 --> 00:57:26.280
anything like that. No, let's just we hate Trump. We

1106
00:57:26.320 --> 00:57:29.320
hate anything that has to do with with MAGA or

1107
00:57:30.000 --> 00:57:33.320
you know, it almost seems like stability, even stability, they're

1108
00:57:33.320 --> 00:57:33.920
against that.

1109
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:36.880
Oh, there are no questions, especially as we get closer

1110
00:57:36.920 --> 00:57:39.719
to the midterm elections. Bill, you know, this is all

1111
00:57:39.760 --> 00:57:42.599
about election politics, and what is their narrative, what is

1112
00:57:42.639 --> 00:57:47.079
their goal? Anything that's positive towards Trump. We have to destroy.

1113
00:57:47.920 --> 00:57:50.199
So ah, we're getting criminals all the street.

1114
00:57:50.239 --> 00:57:50.760
Well, can't do that.

1115
00:57:50.880 --> 00:57:52.880
Let's get them back on the street. Let's raise crime

1116
00:57:52.960 --> 00:57:56.000
backups that we can say is policies have failed. Oh,

1117
00:57:56.079 --> 00:57:58.440
we think we've got people that are not sympathetic, that

1118
00:57:58.559 --> 00:58:01.039
ice are nothing but thugs. Let's play that up for

1119
00:58:01.119 --> 00:58:04.599
all we can. Let's create as much having and controversy.

1120
00:58:04.840 --> 00:58:06.880
Can't find anybody that wants to join us on that

1121
00:58:07.000 --> 00:58:09.920
or everybody loves to get paid. Well, we've got plenty

1122
00:58:10.000 --> 00:58:13.000
of people who want to destroy this country and destroy

1123
00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:16.360
this administration with plenty of money, so they're willing to

1124
00:58:16.400 --> 00:58:19.079
put up cash. We'll start paying you to come show

1125
00:58:19.119 --> 00:58:21.920
out a little bit. And that's what they're doing. They've

1126
00:58:21.920 --> 00:58:23.880
been very effective at it in the past, and the

1127
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:26.880
past they've been effective this time around. I think America

1128
00:58:26.920 --> 00:58:27.800
sees it for what it is.

1129
00:58:27.800 --> 00:58:32.679
Bill Well, the eighty ninety percent of Americans who are starting,

1130
00:58:32.719 --> 00:58:35.800
as you say, starting to see this, must really see

1131
00:58:35.840 --> 00:58:38.480
this with their eyes wide open, that this is purely

1132
00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:43.079
anti American. The movement is to destroy America. This is

1133
00:58:43.159 --> 00:58:46.360
what's happening in our country today. This isn't just some

1134
00:58:46.559 --> 00:58:51.159
agitators that are angry and upset about some Their endgame

1135
00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:56.360
is just like Iran's endgame. They want to destroy and

1136
00:58:56.639 --> 00:59:00.599
completely annihilate the opposition, and right now they see opposition

1137
00:59:00.960 --> 00:59:05.480
here in America as Americans and the American system in

1138
00:59:05.519 --> 00:59:09.119
this great American idea, And what a great time to

1139
00:59:09.159 --> 00:59:12.079
fold us up on our two hundred and fifty year anniversary.

1140
00:59:12.119 --> 00:59:16.039
Michael, Oh, you're exactly right. There is the upset that

1141
00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:18.400
we've survived two hundred and fifty years. Not just survived,

1142
00:59:18.400 --> 00:59:21.320
we've prospered you in fifty years. They're definitely making it

1143
00:59:21.360 --> 00:59:23.440
their objective to make this the last time we get

1144
00:59:23.480 --> 00:59:26.480
to celebrate that scenerizing what you said, just to show

1145
00:59:26.599 --> 00:59:30.079
how broad and how depth their corruption runs. Talking about

1146
00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:32.000
around for a moment, you know, there's a lot going

1147
00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:33.559
on there. We could go into a lot of detail,

1148
00:59:33.559 --> 00:59:36.039
but let me give you one detail that most people

1149
00:59:36.519 --> 00:59:39.840
do not understand or really haven't been apprized of. What's

1150
00:59:39.880 --> 00:59:42.599
making around so difficult. Besides the fact that the Iranians

1151
00:59:42.639 --> 00:59:45.840
are just totally have lost their mind, they never had

1152
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:47.760
a mind to lose, to be honest with you, Bill,

1153
00:59:48.119 --> 00:59:51.320
but what's really pulling the strings is not the Iranians.

1154
00:59:51.719 --> 00:59:56.559
It is our own people treating us, people such as

1155
00:59:56.599 --> 01:00:00.280
the Clintons and the Obamas. And you said, what are

1156
01:00:00.320 --> 01:00:02.679
they pulling. Well, let me tell you what we have

1157
01:00:02.760 --> 01:00:06.320
been able to or finalize in the documentation. Now, but

1158
01:00:06.800 --> 01:00:10.159
where do you think the uranium win that Hillary sold

1159
01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:13.760
to the Russians? And why do you think they don't

1160
01:00:13.760 --> 01:00:16.840
want to turn that uranium back over to the United States.

1161
01:00:17.559 --> 01:00:20.840
Because if that is the case, then you have a question.

1162
01:00:21.119 --> 01:00:24.320
You don't even have to have an investigation bill. You

1163
01:00:24.360 --> 01:00:28.280
have treason edding, inter betting the enemy. And so you

1164
01:00:28.400 --> 01:00:31.559
have the players on this side of the ocean, on

1165
01:00:31.679 --> 01:00:34.760
America soil, who hate this country to begin on, as

1166
01:00:34.800 --> 01:00:37.320
I said, the Clinton's, on the Obamas, et cetera. And

1167
01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:40.679
remember now they've all got connections in Iran. They served

1168
01:00:40.679 --> 01:00:42.880
as secretary of State or the president, and you know

1169
01:00:42.960 --> 01:00:45.599
they've still got connections over the Pentagon, et cetera.

1170
01:00:46.039 --> 01:00:48.079
And it's all part of the One World government. By

1171
01:00:48.079 --> 01:00:50.840
the way, this is outside of America. This is the

1172
01:00:50.840 --> 01:00:54.800
one World government. You know. Excuse me for interrupting just

1173
01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:56.280
a little bit, because I want people to have the

1174
01:00:56.320 --> 01:00:59.400
background again. Remind them of the Hillary Clinton deal.

1175
01:00:59.480 --> 01:00:59.719
What was it?

1176
01:00:59.719 --> 01:01:03.480
Twenty five percent of our uranium was sold.

1177
01:01:03.360 --> 01:01:08.880
To Russia, who then turned around and gave it to Iran,

1178
01:01:09.039 --> 01:01:11.880
is what it appears down with the validation. Is interesting

1179
01:01:11.920 --> 01:01:13.320
when you're being to look at the facts, where did

1180
01:01:13.320 --> 01:01:15.039
that twenty five percent of the dollars go to? Because

1181
01:01:15.039 --> 01:01:17.639
that was some expensive stuff. Yes, if you look at

1182
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:20.320
it and actually went to the Clinton Foundation, you can

1183
01:01:20.320 --> 01:01:22.559
go to your ibag pocket a taxpayers. It went to

1184
01:01:22.599 --> 01:01:25.840
the Clinton Foundation. Okay, so who.

1185
01:01:25.719 --> 01:01:30.519
Owned who owned the uranium was webs So we we

1186
01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:34.280
get ripped off, stolen from once again we get bupkis

1187
01:01:34.719 --> 01:01:37.000
and the Clinton Foundation says, thank you very much.

1188
01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:39.880
Yeah, it's all of those pay for play type deals.

1189
01:01:39.920 --> 01:01:44.320
He was secretary of State, of course, you know Obama

1190
01:01:44.440 --> 01:01:47.360
was the president, and uh it was you know, very

1191
01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:50.119
eavey for them to put this deal together. But they

1192
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:52.400
don't want you and I to know about it. So

1193
01:01:52.519 --> 01:01:54.239
now that we have come to the point, now that

1194
01:01:54.280 --> 01:01:56.159
we are taking the action, that we are in Iran

1195
01:01:56.199 --> 01:01:58.360
and we're coming close to a deal, what do you

1196
01:01:58.360 --> 01:02:00.000
think they're doing all day long on the phone?

1197
01:02:00.079 --> 01:02:01.119
Oh scrambling?

1198
01:02:01.440 --> 01:02:04.880
Oh yeah, you know, you can't do that. Whatever you do,

1199
01:02:05.039 --> 01:02:07.280
just just just hold off, you know, give it to

1200
01:02:07.360 --> 01:02:09.280
them again, you know, tell them you're gonna sign it.

1201
01:02:09.320 --> 01:02:11.480
The staff you into five when they call. But five

1202
01:02:11.559 --> 01:02:13.239
to five and say you can't make the deal. Whatever,

1203
01:02:13.239 --> 01:02:16.880
whatever you have to do. They're scrambling. They're doing it

1204
01:02:16.880 --> 01:02:17.760
for what makes.

1205
01:02:17.599 --> 01:02:20.559
So much sense. That makes so much sense, Michael. And

1206
01:02:20.719 --> 01:02:22.920
the deal is is you're gonna tell me Barack Obama

1207
01:02:22.960 --> 01:02:24.360
didn't get his cut on it.

1208
01:02:24.559 --> 01:02:28.519
Oh, Barack Obama's got so many cuts. Bill, it's amazing that,

1209
01:02:28.679 --> 01:02:30.320
you know. I mean, I think you're gonna have to

1210
01:02:30.360 --> 01:02:33.480
bump George Soros and put Barack Obama in terms of

1211
01:02:33.519 --> 01:02:36.519
who's got the most cash now. He is just totally

1212
01:02:36.760 --> 01:02:41.440
right the US Treasury and just from one deal after another,

1213
01:02:41.679 --> 01:02:45.039
from getting paid royalties for Obamacare, because after all's got

1214
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:47.719
his name on it. He should be getting you know,

1215
01:02:47.880 --> 01:02:51.159
fees for every policy sold to doing just what we

1216
01:02:51.239 --> 01:02:54.360
talked about, the cutting deals, selling our assets, American assets

1217
01:02:54.639 --> 01:02:57.480
to foreign governments, setting up you know, in g o's

1218
01:02:57.639 --> 01:03:00.719
or shell companies, and wish you could avert the payment

1219
01:03:00.760 --> 01:03:02.920
to so that he can collect it later. It's just

1220
01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:05.239
beginning to come out how bad it really is. Build.

1221
01:03:05.280 --> 01:03:07.760
But that's what I want people to understand. This is

1222
01:03:07.760 --> 01:03:11.440
what's driving November. They don't want you to know how

1223
01:03:11.639 --> 01:03:14.719
much they've screwed you over and so they know that

1224
01:03:14.840 --> 01:03:18.719
if you continue to give the Republicans control and the

1225
01:03:18.760 --> 01:03:21.800
House and the Senate with this administration. And remember, we're

1226
01:03:21.800 --> 01:03:24.119
having to replace some of these Republicans too, Bill, because

1227
01:03:24.159 --> 01:03:27.159
some of them, you know, just simply change their their

1228
01:03:27.199 --> 01:03:30.440
their their initial they didn't change their values. And so

1229
01:03:30.639 --> 01:03:32.679
you know, as we begin to get more and more

1230
01:03:33.000 --> 01:03:35.559
cleansing and more and more cooperation, and this stuff comes out,

1231
01:03:36.079 --> 01:03:39.239
it's devastating to the sot A doubt if in death

1232
01:03:39.360 --> 01:03:42.639
they have to get this done by November. They have

1233
01:03:42.719 --> 01:03:44.840
the everything they can to make you. If they don't

1234
01:03:44.840 --> 01:03:46.800
make you change your vote, Bill, they will at least

1235
01:03:46.840 --> 01:03:48.639
get you so discouraged that you say, you know what,

1236
01:03:48.679 --> 01:03:50.159
I'm just going to stay home and go play golf

1237
01:03:50.400 --> 01:03:51.440
day exactly.

1238
01:03:51.599 --> 01:03:53.519
Let's go to break. We've got more from Michael. Let's

1239
01:03:53.559 --> 01:03:54.400
after this stay with us.

1240
01:03:55.519 --> 01:03:59.280
This report is sponsored by IBM as AI transforms how

1241
01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:02.599
work gets done. A new IBM CEO study finds success

1242
01:04:02.599 --> 01:04:06.719
will depend on how quickly organizations redesign their workforce. CEOs

1243
01:04:06.760 --> 01:04:10.079
agree people are the priority. Eighty three percent of CEOs

1244
01:04:10.159 --> 01:04:13.800
say AI success depends more on people's adoption than the technology,

1245
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:17.199
but many organizations are still struggling to redesign roles, build

1246
01:04:17.239 --> 01:04:20.480
new skills, and rethink how teams collaborate. This gap is

1247
01:04:20.519 --> 01:04:23.599
already showing up in the workplace. CEOs say only twenty

1248
01:04:23.599 --> 01:04:26.039
five percent of employees are using AI as part of

1249
01:04:26.079 --> 01:04:28.880
their jobs, even though eighty six percent believe their workforce

1250
01:04:28.960 --> 01:04:32.320
have the skills to collaborate with AI. Looking ahead, CEOs

1251
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:35.280
expect the impact on jobs to accelerate by twenty twenty eight.

1252
01:04:35.320 --> 01:04:38.400
Twenty nine percent of employees may need reskilling for different roles,

1253
01:04:38.400 --> 01:04:41.519
while fifty nine percent will likely require upskilling to perform

1254
01:04:41.559 --> 01:04:44.440
their current roles more effectively. The findings suggest the real

1255
01:04:44.519 --> 01:04:47.960
challenge isn't just adopting AI, it's aligning jobs, skills, and

1256
01:04:48.000 --> 01:04:51.079
ways of working with this speed of AI transformation. To

You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what

1324
01:08:26.399 --> 01:08:28.920
Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here with the law enforcement

1325
01:08:29.000 --> 01:08:33.920
veteran and CEO founder of invest USA, Michael Lets. Michael,

1326
01:08:34.039 --> 01:08:37.560
how did this come to light? What strings did you

1327
01:08:37.600 --> 01:08:40.239
have to pull? In terms of I think there was

1328
01:08:40.319 --> 01:08:42.199
like a thread or something you start pulling a thread,

1329
01:08:42.199 --> 01:08:44.039
and then all of a sudden, you go, oh my gosh,

1330
01:08:44.079 --> 01:08:46.319
there's Hillary, there's Bill, there's a foundation.

1331
01:08:46.640 --> 01:08:50.239
You know, it's amazing, Bill, how much so if they

1332
01:08:50.279 --> 01:08:53.840
didn't cover up, I mean, if if I were to switch,

1333
01:08:53.920 --> 01:08:56.119
Hatch'd be on their side. I'd have to take the

1334
01:08:56.199 --> 01:08:59.279
hatback off. I say, this is the most lousiest organizational

1335
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:01.800
planning I've ever Why did you get so loud that

1336
01:09:01.840 --> 01:09:02.880
I'll tell you why I think it is?

1337
01:09:02.920 --> 01:09:03.159
Bill?

1338
01:09:03.560 --> 01:09:06.039
You know they've got they've been using our assets. There's

1339
01:09:06.039 --> 01:09:09.119
divisions in or within the CIA. You know, within the

1340
01:09:09.199 --> 01:09:12.000
FBI there's there are still tons, not one or two,

1341
01:09:12.079 --> 01:09:14.960
there are tons of agents that are corrupt. Okay, you know,

1342
01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:17.600
I don't want to shed a negative light on the

1343
01:09:17.760 --> 01:09:20.359
positive ones, but trust me, we've got plenty of negative

1344
01:09:20.359 --> 01:09:22.680
ones that have sold this country out. And so the

1345
01:09:22.760 --> 01:09:27.319
question becomes, why did we not get this picked up

1346
01:09:27.319 --> 01:09:29.840
on this before? They've had decades to plan this, They've

1347
01:09:29.840 --> 01:09:32.319
been doing it for years. They've got all these people

1348
01:09:32.319 --> 01:09:34.960
lined up, and as you begin to look at just

1349
01:09:35.079 --> 01:09:38.239
like with the Bureau having all these burn bags, it

1350
01:09:38.359 --> 01:09:43.000
had all these emails and documentation that Bill, you would

1351
01:09:43.079 --> 01:09:45.520
never really want to see, have them see the light

1352
01:09:45.560 --> 01:09:47.600
of day, and they throw it in a room and

1353
01:09:47.680 --> 01:09:50.119
don't even make sure that it's been burned and destroyed

1354
01:09:50.199 --> 01:09:54.960
before they leave. You've just got such craziness. I mean,

1355
01:09:54.960 --> 01:09:57.199
it's like they're acting like to their amateurs. And it

1356
01:09:57.279 --> 01:09:59.319
really is surprising to me. Although when you begin to

1357
01:09:59.359 --> 01:10:03.159
think about it, those who really have the experience and

1358
01:10:03.199 --> 01:10:05.359
those who really know what they're doing, have a love

1359
01:10:05.399 --> 01:10:07.479
for the country, they would never get caught with doing

1360
01:10:07.520 --> 01:10:09.840
that to to begin with. It's the people that were hiring.

1361
01:10:10.159 --> 01:10:11.439
Let me just get you in off the street. I'll

1362
01:10:11.439 --> 01:10:13.000
teach you what you need to know. Just do exactly

1363
01:10:13.000 --> 01:10:14.920
what we tell you to do, and you'll be fine.

1364
01:10:15.039 --> 01:10:16.720
And those are the ones that have been made all

1365
01:10:16.720 --> 01:10:18.880
the mistakes. And so we're beginning to find all their evidence,

1366
01:10:19.159 --> 01:10:20.920
and they know that they're finding and they know that

1367
01:10:20.920 --> 01:10:24.199
we've established military tribunals. Now, now remember the purpose you've

1368
01:10:24.199 --> 01:10:26.800
talked about on your show. For a military tribunal, We're

1369
01:10:26.800 --> 01:10:29.920
gonna bypass this corrupt judicial system. Why do I say

1370
01:10:29.920 --> 01:10:30.880
corrupt judital system.

1371
01:10:30.880 --> 01:10:32.079
I'm let me just give you an example.

1372
01:10:32.119 --> 01:10:32.319
Bill.

1373
01:10:32.399 --> 01:10:35.439
Just in Minnesota, we had a you know, a case

1374
01:10:35.560 --> 01:10:38.680
twenty four point five million dollars a fraud on we

1375
01:10:38.680 --> 01:10:41.359
were talking about the Medicare issue, black and white. Jury

1376
01:10:41.359 --> 01:10:43.840
didn't even take more than an hour. You're guilty, an

1377
01:10:43.880 --> 01:10:46.920
activist judge decided, you know what, I don't thank you

1378
01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:49.119
debated long enough. We're gonna throw it out. We're gonna

1379
01:10:49.159 --> 01:10:51.680
throw the whole convection, the whole thing out, Make the

1380
01:10:51.760 --> 01:10:53.840
Justice Department do it overget if they even want to proceed.

1381
01:10:54.239 --> 01:10:56.520
That's the kind of corruption we have. That's on one level,

1382
01:10:56.520 --> 01:10:59.479
but it's all over the country. On Juditalact. We can't

1383
01:10:59.520 --> 01:11:03.600
afford to allow these people to escape justice. Military tribunals

1384
01:11:03.640 --> 01:11:05.880
are best bad at doing that. They know we've established them,

1385
01:11:05.920 --> 01:11:10.680
were charging them now with getting investigations done, scaring them

1386
01:11:10.680 --> 01:11:13.920
to death? What is their goal? How do if I

1387
01:11:13.960 --> 01:11:17.119
were advising them, how do they get around this. They've

1388
01:11:17.159 --> 01:11:20.279
got to win the election in November. They've got to

1389
01:11:20.399 --> 01:11:22.720
change the attention, the narrative. Oh, we're going to peace

1390
01:11:22.760 --> 01:11:23.319
the president.

1391
01:11:23.560 --> 01:11:24.159
They've got to.

1392
01:11:24.079 --> 01:11:26.359
Make him a lame dug. They have to win in

1393
01:11:26.399 --> 01:11:29.399
twenty twenty eight to a democratic president. Then you come

1394
01:11:29.439 --> 01:11:31.399
in and just say, okay, guys, everything you're working on,

1395
01:11:31.880 --> 01:11:33.880
throw it out. The garbage this time, make sure you

1396
01:11:34.000 --> 01:11:36.119
carry it to the trash dove, but you watch it burn,

1397
01:11:36.960 --> 01:11:39.039
you know, and make sure that it's gone for good.

1398
01:11:39.319 --> 01:11:42.039
That is what they are desperately trying to get accomplished,

1399
01:11:42.159 --> 01:11:43.159
and we're not gonna let them do it.

1400
01:11:43.159 --> 01:11:43.359
Bill.

1401
01:11:44.039 --> 01:11:48.479
Yeah, well, you know this is what evil people do, Michael.

1402
01:11:48.520 --> 01:11:53.800
They're so arrogant. You know, pride always comes before the fall,

1403
01:11:54.359 --> 01:11:56.399
and you know the fall is going to be huge

1404
01:11:56.479 --> 01:12:00.520
because this isn't just a year or two worth of pride.

1405
01:12:00.920 --> 01:12:05.880
We're talking decades of pride and corruption. That these guys

1406
01:12:05.920 --> 01:12:10.159
are scrambling ladies, scrambling for their very their very lives

1407
01:12:10.239 --> 01:12:13.720
because if they're found out, I mean, somebody's got to

1408
01:12:13.720 --> 01:12:16.520
go to jail. See, this is what's this is what's

1409
01:12:16.600 --> 01:12:21.079
problematic here in our country. And how this this, you know,

1410
01:12:21.399 --> 01:12:25.239
it's like a pandemic of its own, Michael. This stuff

1411
01:12:25.279 --> 01:12:29.920
is happening within the government, and now the everyday citizen says, hey,

1412
01:12:29.920 --> 01:12:32.239
why should I have a conscience? So what I take

1413
01:12:32.279 --> 01:12:35.319
a thousand dollars, I smash and grab, take a thousand dollars.

1414
01:12:35.479 --> 01:12:38.600
So what you know? You know, Nancy Pelosi's running away

1415
01:12:38.600 --> 01:12:42.520
with millions, you know, Hillary and Bill they're running away

1416
01:12:42.520 --> 01:12:46.359
with millions. I mean, this infects our culture, and it

1417
01:12:47.560 --> 01:12:53.760
strikes at our very morbile, mortal backbone. And we're compromised

1418
01:12:53.760 --> 01:12:56.119
in a big way here. So if we do not

1419
01:12:56.319 --> 01:12:59.279
return the levers of government where it belongs according to

1420
01:12:59.319 --> 01:13:03.039
the Constitution, and we the people, uh, we're in trouble.

1421
01:13:03.079 --> 01:13:06.319
We're we're already in a down, downward spiral.

1422
01:13:06.359 --> 01:13:09.800
Anyway, Well, hues illustration. I got a lot of people

1423
01:13:09.800 --> 01:13:11.600
made at me the last few days. Bill. You're probably

1424
01:13:11.720 --> 01:13:14.720
here now on the hill here shortly, but here's the analogy.

1425
01:13:15.359 --> 01:13:18.880
We're all frustrated and upset what's going on in around

1426
01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:21.079
My gas prices are continuing to be high. You know,

1427
01:13:21.119 --> 01:13:24.520
I want us out today, Bill or you doubls and

1428
01:13:24.600 --> 01:13:26.399
so we're all setting, you know, well, what should we do?

1429
01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:29.279
What should we do? My apointment was very clear, hold on,

1430
01:13:29.399 --> 01:13:31.600
forget about it, Rod. Let me tell you where the

1431
01:13:31.600 --> 01:13:36.079
real problem is America. We promised America that we would

1432
01:13:36.159 --> 01:13:38.920
hold people accountable. Now we've done a hell of a

1433
01:13:39.039 --> 01:13:44.279
job of pointing out where the nefarious actions occur. But

1434
01:13:44.359 --> 01:13:47.359
can you tell me one person of significance that we've indicted?

1435
01:13:48.239 --> 01:13:49.399
I said, so what is America?

1436
01:13:49.479 --> 01:13:49.760
Thank you?

1437
01:13:50.760 --> 01:13:55.479
Well, why do I care about your rationale about Iran?

1438
01:13:55.760 --> 01:13:57.720
I can't even get you to pick up a person

1439
01:13:58.000 --> 01:14:01.159
that's stealing from me. So yeah, I'm just gonna instead

1440
01:14:01.199 --> 01:14:03.279
of being willing to bear the costs. Yeah, I may

1441
01:14:03.319 --> 01:14:05.960
have to pay gas a little higher protect our children

1442
01:14:05.960 --> 01:14:09.000
in the future, to make sure we destroy a terrorist country,

1443
01:14:09.199 --> 01:14:11.119
you know, to make sure they don't have nuclear weapons,

1444
01:14:11.119 --> 01:14:13.279
et cetera, et cetera. Instead of listening to all the logic,

1445
01:14:13.520 --> 01:14:15.079
I'm not gonna listen to anything you have to say.

1446
01:14:15.239 --> 01:14:18.239
I don't believe what you have to say. Everybody, you know,

1447
01:14:18.359 --> 01:14:21.359
nobody's held accountable anymore. That's where we need to get

1448
01:14:21.359 --> 01:14:24.600
back to, is the matter of principle. Implement the principle

1449
01:14:24.640 --> 01:14:28.439
that we have. We've got plenty of files and plenty

1450
01:14:28.439 --> 01:14:31.640
of documentation and diabets could be flying out the door

1451
01:14:31.920 --> 01:14:35.239
within the hour. Make it happen. And then you watch

1452
01:14:35.279 --> 01:14:38.680
how America say, whoa, We're really serious about getting back

1453
01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:42.720
to the constitution. We're serious about making this country great again.

1454
01:14:42.840 --> 01:14:44.720
So tell me again, what's the problem with it? R

1455
01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:47.880
in why I'm okay, and now I understand. Instead of

1456
01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:49.720
demanding that if I'm not out of here by five.

1457
01:14:49.760 --> 01:14:52.039
I'm gonna turt on you. Now, I get it. I'm

1458
01:14:52.079 --> 01:14:55.279
with you. Let's work this other policy amountter together. But

1459
01:14:55.399 --> 01:14:57.640
right now we've lost their confidence in their trust and

1460
01:14:57.680 --> 01:14:59.520
that it's unfortunate, but we need to gain it back

1461
01:14:59.520 --> 01:15:00.560
and do it very quickly.

1462
01:15:01.039 --> 01:15:04.000
Well, you're exactly right, because it is a distraction and

1463
01:15:04.039 --> 01:15:09.840
it clogs the lines of communication, and more importantly, it

1464
01:15:09.920 --> 01:15:11.560
violates the trust value.

1465
01:15:11.800 --> 01:15:14.520
That's good. That's the key, right, that is the key,

1466
01:15:15.399 --> 01:15:17.199
and you can't you can't run a government. You can't

1467
01:15:17.279 --> 01:15:18.600
run a country without trust.

1468
01:15:18.960 --> 01:15:19.239
Yeah.

1469
01:15:19.319 --> 01:15:23.720
Amen, Speaking of which you kind of hinted on this one.

1470
01:15:24.279 --> 01:15:27.840
You got a former CIA official. He's arrested after the

1471
01:15:27.840 --> 01:15:31.840
FEDS find forty million dollars in gold bars. What is

1472
01:15:31.840 --> 01:15:35.399
a CIA official doing with forty million dollars in gold bars?

1473
01:15:35.960 --> 01:15:38.199
Well, it goes a lot deeper. I'm glad you brought

1474
01:15:38.239 --> 01:15:40.600
it up. Let's let's take a shovel out and dig

1475
01:15:40.600 --> 01:15:42.880
gets a little bit deeper. All right, First of all,

1476
01:15:43.079 --> 01:15:47.800
why do you have a senior official nobody held accountable? Well,

1477
01:15:47.800 --> 01:15:49.880
did you say you don't want let me tell you what

1478
01:15:49.920 --> 01:15:52.520
me by accountability? So Bill, you come to me and say, look,

1479
01:15:52.840 --> 01:15:56.239
I've got the Czech government and you know they need

1480
01:15:56.760 --> 01:15:58.600
read this if I'm going to keep the lunch of connivation?

1481
01:15:59.039 --> 01:16:02.399
So why did I say, great, Bill, who is the contact?

1482
01:16:02.840 --> 01:16:04.520
Why don't you set up lunch and let me make

1483
01:16:04.560 --> 01:16:07.199
sure that you know that I understand what their need

1484
01:16:07.239 --> 01:16:10.039
is and what we're getting in return. Why don't you say, oh,

1485
01:16:10.039 --> 01:16:10.680
how much you need?

1486
01:16:10.720 --> 01:16:11.000
How much?

1487
01:16:11.000 --> 01:16:13.439
Okay, here it is and never ask you a question

1488
01:16:13.520 --> 01:16:17.079
for decades? Oh now he wants a gold watch? Okay,

1489
01:16:17.600 --> 01:16:19.560
go buy what don't you you just just send us?

1490
01:16:20.039 --> 01:16:22.960
It is crazy to me, Bill, that that is an

1491
01:16:22.960 --> 01:16:27.560
indication of what we have been experiencing in our agencies. Absolutely,

1492
01:16:27.600 --> 01:16:30.199
when they're a rogue like this, there is no accountability.

1493
01:16:30.279 --> 01:16:31.880
I think everybody would understand.

1494
01:16:32.079 --> 01:16:32.319
Bill.

1495
01:16:32.319 --> 01:16:34.239
If you went into your boss's office said I need

1496
01:16:34.239 --> 01:16:36.399
a couple million dollars, we don't ask why, just just

1497
01:16:36.399 --> 01:16:38.359
can you make sure it's in my account? By five,

1498
01:16:38.720 --> 01:16:43.239
they'd escorts you out. They were nuts. So why had what?

1499
01:16:43.239 --> 01:16:45.920
What are we allowing our government agencies to do this too?

1500
01:16:45.920 --> 01:16:48.039
As for Bill, they they'll be doing it for decades.

1501
01:16:48.079 --> 01:16:51.880
Right exactly, So uh, again it is there.

1502
01:16:51.920 --> 01:16:56.880
Accountability hadn't been yet not this particular incidence. Yep, we

1503
01:16:56.960 --> 01:16:59.640
got him, and yep we're picking up the goal by

1504
01:16:59.680 --> 01:17:01.880
the question question is I'm not so much worried about him,

1505
01:17:01.880 --> 01:17:04.359
of course, and he's gonna get you know, I want

1506
01:17:04.359 --> 01:17:06.720
to know straight up the chain, at the very top,

1507
01:17:06.880 --> 01:17:11.159
including the presidency, how in the world did this transpire,

1508
01:17:11.279 --> 01:17:14.199
because quite frankly, I got a real difficulty believe in

1509
01:17:14.279 --> 01:17:16.680
that the director at the time, whoever the director was

1510
01:17:16.720 --> 01:17:19.359
when it first started, didn't know. And if the director knew,

1511
01:17:19.399 --> 01:17:22.199
I got a sneakyt suspicion that the top of the

1512
01:17:22.239 --> 01:17:24.239
ticket which you put in, the commander in chief, whoever

1513
01:17:24.239 --> 01:17:26.119
it was at that time, would have known. Why am

1514
01:17:26.119 --> 01:17:28.880
I using februarys at that time. We're still investigating. I

1515
01:17:28.920 --> 01:17:32.000
don't know when he started this using the various activities,

1516
01:17:32.079 --> 01:17:33.880
but I can tell you this bill it wasn't yesterday.

1517
01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:35.720
It's been back far enough. We're having to really start

1518
01:17:35.760 --> 01:17:36.239
to dig.

1519
01:17:36.520 --> 01:17:39.880
Well again, you know, we look at the arrogance. You know,

1520
01:17:40.319 --> 01:17:42.760
this guy did not I mean, this is a CIA operative,

1521
01:17:42.840 --> 01:17:46.680
Give me a break. He doesn't take it offshore, He

1522
01:17:47.159 --> 01:17:49.840
hides it inside his home, put in the closet.

1523
01:17:49.920 --> 01:17:51.680
Well, it's going two bars Well, I was four and

1524
01:17:51.720 --> 01:17:53.960
I was ten, not twenty nine is fifty and he

1525
01:17:54.079 --> 01:17:56.880
just he figures, well it's working now, I mean, why

1526
01:17:57.000 --> 01:17:57.680
change anything.

1527
01:17:57.880 --> 01:17:59.920
Nobody seems to care exactly.

1528
01:18:00.119 --> 01:18:02.680
He might as well parked it in Joe Biden's garage

1529
01:18:02.760 --> 01:18:04.239
next to the corvette. Huh.

1530
01:18:05.000 --> 01:18:06.359
He probably would have been better off of you to

1531
01:18:06.399 --> 01:18:08.039
have done so. He had probably had a better excuse.

1532
01:18:08.760 --> 01:18:12.159
Might unless Hunter stubbed his toe on it. Then we

1533
01:18:12.199 --> 01:18:13.680
know what would happen to that role quick.

1534
01:18:13.760 --> 01:18:15.680
So it was hard in that sense. Bill. He figured

1535
01:18:15.680 --> 01:18:18.000
if you left it in Joe's garage that Hunter would

1536
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:20.399
have traded a cash it in for cocaine and it's

1537
01:18:20.439 --> 01:18:21.119
all been gone.

1538
01:18:21.199 --> 01:18:23.520
So in some hot and some hot women, of course, yeah,

1539
01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:25.560
because he's got he's got taste. Well, we got to

1540
01:18:25.640 --> 01:18:28.479
leave it there. Michael LED's the law enforcement veteran and

1645
01:24:00.239 --> 01:24:01.640
but by the end of the year, only one in

1646
01:24:01.760 --> 01:24:03.960
four people they're actually able to stick through.

1647
01:24:03.960 --> 01:24:05.239
And follow through on that plan.

1648
01:24:05.840 --> 01:24:07.680
With summer coming up, as you mentioned, this is a

1649
01:24:07.720 --> 01:24:10.640
time where it's common for people to drift from that plan.

1650
01:24:11.359 --> 01:24:15.399
Lots of activities, lots of travel, spending can creep up

1651
01:24:15.439 --> 01:24:17.319
over the next few months, and so yeah, it's a

1652
01:24:17.319 --> 01:24:19.119
great time for a quick check in on that plan.

1653
01:24:19.159 --> 01:24:21.560
If you have one, dust it off, try to recommit

1654
01:24:21.640 --> 01:24:23.600
to your goals and finish this year strong.

1655
01:24:24.079 --> 01:24:26.399
All right, So what's the first step that you recommend?

1656
01:24:29.000 --> 01:24:31.319
Yeah, well, It's a good question because I think a

1657
01:24:31.319 --> 01:24:34.720
lot of people are feeling stuck at times and not

1658
01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:36.800
sure where to get started. We just recently did a

1659
01:24:36.840 --> 01:24:40.199
survey sixty percent of our younger investors' answer we're asking

1660
01:24:40.279 --> 01:24:42.399
just that question of where do I even get started?

1661
01:24:42.479 --> 01:24:43.520
I'm not sure where to go.

1662
01:24:43.960 --> 01:24:45.880
And so for those people, you know, we like to say,

1663
01:24:45.960 --> 01:24:49.479
keep it simple to start. Step number one, just create

1664
01:24:49.600 --> 01:24:53.760
a clear savings target right for your retirement goal, and

1665
01:24:53.800 --> 01:24:56.920
then step number two, be consistent about hitting that target

1666
01:24:57.000 --> 01:24:59.800
month over month. It sounds very simple, and it can

1667
01:24:59.880 --> 01:25:02.399
be simple if you let automation be your friend.

1668
01:25:02.720 --> 01:25:02.880
Right.

1669
01:25:02.960 --> 01:25:05.840
A lot of people they use auto pay right to

1670
01:25:05.920 --> 01:25:07.960
pay down their debts month to month so they don't

1671
01:25:08.000 --> 01:25:10.640
fall behind on those bills. The same can apply to

1672
01:25:10.680 --> 01:25:13.840
your investments. Right pay yourself first, right auto pay.

1673
01:25:13.640 --> 01:25:15.079
Into those investment accounts.

1674
01:25:15.319 --> 01:25:18.880
Therefore you're always making progress month to month during all

1675
01:25:18.960 --> 01:25:20.640
periods of the markets.

1676
01:25:21.279 --> 01:25:23.600
Yeah, because it is a process, isn't it. And the

1677
01:25:23.680 --> 01:25:26.920
thing is is that once you set up that process,

1678
01:25:27.239 --> 01:25:29.720
and like you say, when you have it, you know,

1679
01:25:29.800 --> 01:25:33.279
set up as an automated deal, you're kind of surprised,

1680
01:25:33.319 --> 01:25:35.680
you know, you look at it, maybe six months later

1681
01:25:35.720 --> 01:25:38.600
and you go, whoa, hey, I'm making some headway here,

1682
01:25:39.039 --> 01:25:41.479
and and it wasn't as painful as I thought it

1683
01:25:41.560 --> 01:25:43.000
might have been when I first got started.

1684
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:46.439
Right, Yeah, that's exactly right.

1685
01:25:46.520 --> 01:25:49.600
Right, small amounts can grow to big figures over time

1686
01:25:49.640 --> 01:25:53.119
when you're disciplined about investing. You know, we often tell

1687
01:25:53.119 --> 01:25:56.000
our investors, right, just saving twenty five dollars a week,

1688
01:25:56.119 --> 01:25:58.319
if you're able to do that for thirty years at

1689
01:25:58.319 --> 01:26:01.560
a conservative growth rate between five and six percent, right,

1690
01:26:01.560 --> 01:26:04.239
that's going to grow to more than one hundred thousand dollars. Right,

1691
01:26:04.279 --> 01:26:06.680
So these small numbers, they can really add up to

1692
01:26:07.640 --> 01:26:09.479
setting yourself up for future success.

1693
01:26:09.520 --> 01:26:11.720
Your future self will absolutely.

1694
01:26:11.159 --> 01:26:13.159
Thank you that you took out the time now to

1695
01:26:13.199 --> 01:26:15.920
set up that automated contribution into your accounts.

1696
01:26:16.279 --> 01:26:20.199
Well, Brian, let's break down Digital Advisor for the folks

1697
01:26:20.279 --> 01:26:24.479
you know, and how you could make the process easier

1698
01:26:24.479 --> 01:26:27.199
for us, and you know how it actually works.

1699
01:26:29.439 --> 01:26:31.880
Yeah, So, ease is absolutely the name of the game

1700
01:26:31.920 --> 01:26:34.680
with what we're attempting to do here with Vanguard Digital Advisor.

1701
01:26:35.039 --> 01:26:38.319
When clients enter the service, we're just trying to find

1702
01:26:38.319 --> 01:26:41.000
out a few basic pieces of information to start, right,

1703
01:26:41.039 --> 01:26:45.600
what's their current financial situation. Two, what's their risk tolerance?

1704
01:26:45.960 --> 01:26:48.880
And then three and most importantly, what are those goals? Right,

1705
01:26:48.880 --> 01:26:52.039
that's what people are investing for. Is it retirement, is

1706
01:26:52.039 --> 01:26:54.880
it a kid's education. Maybe there's a home purchase, or

1707
01:26:54.920 --> 01:26:57.600
a wedding on the horizon, right, maybe all those things.

1708
01:26:57.960 --> 01:27:00.600
Once we have that information at hand, that's where the

1709
01:27:00.640 --> 01:27:03.880
portfolio construction process begins, and so we can go ahead

1710
01:27:03.880 --> 01:27:08.239
and create a broadly diversified portfolio of low cost muta

1711
01:27:08.319 --> 01:27:11.359
funds and ETFs you know, typically gives our clients coverage

1712
01:27:11.359 --> 01:27:13.600
to more than ten thousand stocks across the globe.

1713
01:27:14.000 --> 01:27:14.720
And then from there.

1714
01:27:14.800 --> 01:27:16.640
Once that portfolio is set up, we can manage it

1715
01:27:16.720 --> 01:27:20.079
day to day and so as those hopefully automatic contributions

1716
01:27:20.119 --> 01:27:25.159
are coming in, as the risk and balance of equities

1717
01:27:25.199 --> 01:27:28.119
and bonds changes in that portfolio, we can rebalance that

1718
01:27:28.239 --> 01:27:32.239
portfolio and even help clients minimize taxes as well. We

1719
01:27:32.239 --> 01:27:34.359
actually hear from our clients that we save them about

1720
01:27:34.399 --> 01:27:38.199
one hundred hours per year on average, as well as

1721
01:27:38.279 --> 01:27:39.039
a lot of stress.

1722
01:27:39.640 --> 01:27:42.600
Well, and I imagine your clients run the entire gamut

1723
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:47.279
from barely experience, no experience to lots of experience. So

1724
01:27:48.279 --> 01:27:50.880
let's address that person who says, well, you know, I

1725
01:27:50.880 --> 01:27:56.119
got a four oh one K. It's performing okay. Right now,

1726
01:27:56.119 --> 01:27:59.239
the market is pretty hardy and so it looks positive.

1727
01:27:59.239 --> 01:28:01.960
But you know, to have a system like this that

1728
01:28:02.079 --> 01:28:05.079
really puts the power in your hands as opposed to

1729
01:28:05.119 --> 01:28:08.039
somebody else, Right, this is the big difference that Vanguard

1730
01:28:08.119 --> 01:28:08.560
is offering.

1731
01:28:10.560 --> 01:28:13.159
Yeah, that's right, and as you mentioned, it runs the gamut.

1732
01:28:13.199 --> 01:28:15.840
We have nineteen year olds and ninety one year olds

1733
01:28:15.840 --> 01:28:19.039
in the service. Average age for us is around forty.

1734
01:28:19.399 --> 01:28:21.800
You know, young professionals growing up with the services is

1735
01:28:21.800 --> 01:28:25.920
definitely meant to accommodate all different personas that might enjoy

1736
01:28:25.960 --> 01:28:27.880
the benefits of automated investing.

1737
01:28:28.560 --> 01:28:29.560
You mentioned to four one K.

1738
01:28:29.720 --> 01:28:32.039
What's helpful about a service like this is it puts

1739
01:28:32.079 --> 01:28:33.760
your investments in context.

1740
01:28:34.079 --> 01:28:34.199
Right.

1741
01:28:34.239 --> 01:28:36.119
You may be sitting there saying, hey, I have an

1742
01:28:36.119 --> 01:28:39.920
automatic contribution set up. I'm building some savings, but is

1743
01:28:39.960 --> 01:28:42.439
it enough? Am I on track? Do I need to

1744
01:28:42.479 --> 01:28:45.920
save more? How do I balance that home goal with

1745
01:28:46.079 --> 01:28:47.279
the education goal?

1746
01:28:47.640 --> 01:28:47.760
Right?

1747
01:28:47.840 --> 01:28:50.840
What's nice about this is we're creating a holistic financial

1748
01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:54.479
plan that ties all those questions together. And so, you know,

1749
01:28:54.520 --> 01:28:56.800
a client logging in they're going to say, hey, look,

1750
01:28:56.880 --> 01:28:59.319
I have a ninety percent chance of hitting my retirement

1751
01:28:59.359 --> 01:29:01.760
goal and I'm a little bit, you know, off track

1752
01:29:01.800 --> 01:29:04.039
on that home goal. What are some tips to get

1753
01:29:04.039 --> 01:29:04.800
back on track?

1754
01:29:05.000 --> 01:29:06.319
How much more do.

1755
01:29:06.279 --> 01:29:07.760
I need to save if I want to get that

1756
01:29:07.840 --> 01:29:10.359
home goal on track? And so that's the beauty of

1757
01:29:10.359 --> 01:29:14.279
this software is it's optimizing your financial plan, making suggestions

1758
01:29:14.279 --> 01:29:16.039
on how to improve your financial outlook.

1759
01:29:16.600 --> 01:29:19.800
Well, you know, most people, they've been in and around

1760
01:29:19.880 --> 01:29:24.039
investing whatsoever. They know the name Vanguard is a strong

1761
01:29:24.119 --> 01:29:28.119
branded name. And so what's part of this program is

1762
01:29:28.239 --> 01:29:31.760
all this experience over the years that you've developed to

1763
01:29:31.880 --> 01:29:34.760
do one thing, and that is to you know, help

1764
01:29:34.840 --> 01:29:40.359
the everyday american, you know, reach some level of financial

1765
01:29:40.399 --> 01:29:44.520
wealth that they only maybe before only could hope to

1766
01:29:44.600 --> 01:29:45.319
possibly hit.

1767
01:29:45.439 --> 01:29:49.079
Right, you know that that's right.

1768
01:29:49.119 --> 01:29:51.359
Our mission of Vanguard has given investors the best chance

1769
01:29:51.399 --> 01:29:52.319
of investment success.

1770
01:29:52.359 --> 01:29:53.520
That's what we live for here.

1771
01:29:54.239 --> 01:29:57.560
We feel strongly that financial advice should not be a

1772
01:29:57.640 --> 01:30:00.000
luxury good, and so we're in the business of breakin

1773
01:30:00.279 --> 01:30:05.239
that sophisticated investment advice historically reserved for millionaires to everybody.

1774
01:30:05.840 --> 01:30:07.119
And that's the power of technology.

1775
01:30:07.119 --> 01:30:11.039
Technology has allowed us to make investing much more approachable

1776
01:30:11.199 --> 01:30:13.800
as well as much more.

1777
01:30:13.640 --> 01:30:15.279
Accessible than it ever has been.

1778
01:30:15.359 --> 01:30:17.680
You know, in this case with Digital Advisor, the investment

1779
01:30:17.720 --> 01:30:20.479
minimum is only one hundred dollars to get access to

1780
01:30:20.520 --> 01:30:22.640
that professional investing well.

1781
01:30:22.680 --> 01:30:25.239
And I got to imagine, Brian, especially with these new

1782
01:30:25.279 --> 01:30:28.159
Trump accounts, that this is opening up a whole in

1783
01:30:28.199 --> 01:30:29.359
your venue for you. Right.

1784
01:30:31.760 --> 01:30:34.079
Yeah, look, Trump accounts. There aren't a lot of free

1785
01:30:34.119 --> 01:30:36.640
lunches in finance. We know, the employer matches one, and

1786
01:30:36.680 --> 01:30:40.159
now the Trump accounts are another. It's a great opportunity

1787
01:30:40.199 --> 01:30:42.159
if you have a young kid. In my case, I

1788
01:30:42.159 --> 01:30:44.680
have a newborn. I have a ten month old little

1789
01:30:44.680 --> 01:30:47.720
girl at home, and so she's eligible for that thousand

1790
01:30:47.800 --> 01:30:52.560
dollars deposit. All babies born yep after January first, twenty

1791
01:30:52.600 --> 01:30:56.000
twenty five eligible for that deposit. And so yeah, it's

1792
01:30:56.000 --> 01:31:00.640
a great new avenue to help our future general, you know,

1793
01:31:00.680 --> 01:31:03.399
wake up eighteen years from now and have a really

1794
01:31:03.479 --> 01:31:05.920
nice start and off to the races for the retirement goals.

1795
01:31:06.279 --> 01:31:09.359
And even for those kids that are not necessarily getting

1796
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:12.760
the thousand dollars kiss from the government. You know, anytime

1797
01:31:12.800 --> 01:31:14.560
we can get a kiss from the government. That's great.

1798
01:31:15.239 --> 01:31:18.800
But even kids, you can open up an investment account

1799
01:31:18.840 --> 01:31:21.680
through Vanguard to help them along, even if they're eight

1800
01:31:21.760 --> 01:31:22.560
or nine years old.

1801
01:31:22.680 --> 01:31:26.479
Right, yeah, that's right, we have we have because tootial

1802
01:31:26.520 --> 01:31:29.119
accounts available at Vanguard, and so such a great way

1803
01:31:29.159 --> 01:31:32.279
to you know, give give the gift of investing to

1804
01:31:32.399 --> 01:31:34.479
you know, to your errors and set them up for

1805
01:31:34.560 --> 01:31:37.640
long term success. And yeah, back back to the Trump accounts, right,

1806
01:31:37.680 --> 01:31:39.960
anyone under age eighteen, they are eligible to set up

1807
01:31:39.960 --> 01:31:43.560
that that account. You just fill out Form forty five

1808
01:31:43.680 --> 01:31:46.399
forty seven through the IRS's website and you can start

1809
01:31:47.119 --> 01:31:49.079
getting that open in just a matter of minutes. Later

1810
01:31:49.119 --> 01:31:51.640
this summer, those accounts will be open for you.

1811
01:31:52.119 --> 01:31:55.039
That's excellent, Brian. We got to wrap things up. So

1812
01:31:55.399 --> 01:31:58.680
I'm going to weave into questions here what are some

1813
01:31:58.760 --> 01:32:01.279
other ways or tool like did you advisor can help

1814
01:32:01.359 --> 01:32:05.079
answer bigger financial questions? It's a big question and where

1815
01:32:05.079 --> 01:32:06.279
can they go for more information?

1816
01:32:06.359 --> 01:32:06.600
Sure?

1817
01:32:08.880 --> 01:32:11.039
Yeah, so with Digital Visor one of the greatest things

1818
01:32:11.039 --> 01:32:14.039
that beyond investments, it can be your one stop shop

1819
01:32:14.079 --> 01:32:16.960
for all of your finances. And so we connect your

1820
01:32:16.960 --> 01:32:20.239
bank accounts, your mortgages, your auto loans, your credit cards,

1821
01:32:20.319 --> 01:32:23.479
your investment accounts, a Vanguard and elsewhere all together in

1822
01:32:23.680 --> 01:32:26.079
one spot, and it gives you a nice bird's eye

1823
01:32:26.199 --> 01:32:29.079
view on your entire financial picture. And with that in hand,

1824
01:32:29.119 --> 01:32:33.800
then we can nudge you to go after important financial

1825
01:32:33.880 --> 01:32:37.439
timeless tips. We mentioned the employer match another one. Once

1826
01:32:37.479 --> 01:32:40.039
we have insight into your debt. If you have any

1827
01:32:40.119 --> 01:32:43.199
high paying or high interest debt, we absolutely encourage you

1828
01:32:43.239 --> 01:32:46.479
to pay that down right exceptectually. If it's an excess

1829
01:32:46.479 --> 01:32:49.159
of ten percent, like those credit cards, that could be

1830
01:32:49.199 --> 01:32:52.680
a really big headwind to long term wealth creation. And

1831
01:32:52.720 --> 01:32:56.079
then also think about things like emergency savings. We have

1832
01:32:56.159 --> 01:32:58.640
high yielding cash accounts that we can make sure that

1833
01:32:58.680 --> 01:33:01.000
you're tucking aside. We recommend and at least two thousand

1834
01:33:01.079 --> 01:33:03.880
dollars into emergency savings, but better yet, if you can

1835
01:33:03.920 --> 01:33:06.479
grow that to three to six months of your living

1836
01:33:06.479 --> 01:33:09.239
expenses to get a true comfort comfort in case of

1837
01:33:09.279 --> 01:33:11.920
an income or an expense shock. And so once we

1838
01:33:11.920 --> 01:33:14.600
get those foundations in place for our investors, then we

1839
01:33:14.640 --> 01:33:16.560
can make sure that they're investing with confidence for those

1840
01:33:16.640 --> 01:33:19.479
medium and longer term goals. In terms of more information,

1841

Ryan Kinkennon, he's the head of Vanguard Digital Advisor. Brian,

1844
01:33:29.560 --> 01:33:32.000
thank you for all the great advice. Appreciate it, take care.

1845
01:33:33.560 --> 01:33:34.600
Great Thanks for having me.

1846
01:33:35.560 --> 01:33:39.319
This report is sponsored by IBM as AI transforms how

1847
01:33:39.359 --> 01:33:42.640
work gets done. A new IBM CEO study finds success

1848
01:33:42.640 --> 01:33:46.760
will depend on how quickly organizations redesign their workforce. CEOs

1849
01:33:46.800 --> 01:33:50.079
agree people are the priority. Eighty three percent of CEOs

1850
01:33:50.199 --> 01:33:53.840
say AI success depends more on people's adoption than the technology,

1851
01:33:53.920 --> 01:33:57.239
but many organizations are still struggling to redesign roles, build

1852
01:33:57.279 --> 01:34:00.560
new skills, and rethink how teams collaborate. This gap is

1853
01:34:00.560 --> 01:34:03.640
already showing up in the workplace. CEOs say only twenty

1854
01:34:03.640 --> 01:34:06.079
five percent of employees are using AI as part of

1855
01:34:06.119 --> 01:34:08.920
their jobs, even though eighty six percent believe their workforce

1856
01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:12.359
have the skills to collaborate with AI. Looking ahead, CEOs

1857
01:34:12.439 --> 01:34:15.319
expect the impact on jobs to accelerate by twenty twenty eight.

1858
01:34:15.359 --> 01:34:18.399
Twenty nine percent of employees may need reskilling for different roles,

1859
01:34:18.439 --> 01:34:21.560
while fifty nine percent will likely require upskilling to perform

1860
01:34:21.600 --> 01:34:24.479
their current roles more effectively. The findings suggests the real

1861
01:34:24.560 --> 01:34:28.000
challenge isn't just adopting AI, it's aligning jobs, skills, and

1862
01:34:28.039 --> 01:34:31.119
ways of working with this speed of AI transformation. To

Doing great?

1924
01:37:45.239 --> 01:37:47.560
Uh, definitely a lot better than the Democrats, I think.

1925
01:37:47.600 --> 01:37:51.479
You know, can you imagine? I mean what a nightmare?

1926
01:37:51.680 --> 01:37:54.479
I mean you got Jill Biden out there trying to

1927
01:37:54.520 --> 01:37:58.159
rewrite history that obviously everybody knows about. Maybe the Democrats

1928
01:37:58.199 --> 01:38:00.840
are starting to wake up and going really, he wasn't working,

1929
01:38:01.239 --> 01:38:03.680
he didn't he didn't have his act together. He wasn't

1930
01:38:03.800 --> 01:38:07.079
sharp as a bend as we were told. And you

1931
01:38:07.159 --> 01:38:09.680
got come on, Kamala Harris and are one hundred and

1932
01:38:09.680 --> 01:38:13.279
seven days of Nightmare book tour? Uh you've got uh

1933
01:38:13.479 --> 01:38:19.239
what Graham Plattner, James tell Rico Mamdani and then the

1934
01:38:19.279 --> 01:38:22.680
two governors that have lost their skulls that said, hey,

1935
01:38:22.720 --> 01:38:25.760
we're going to govern his moderates, you know, uh, Mikey

1936
01:38:25.840 --> 01:38:30.479
Cheryl and Abigail Spamberger. And then in the in contrast

1937
01:38:30.560 --> 01:38:34.560
with all that, let's go to California, the poster child

1938
01:38:34.760 --> 01:38:40.119
of of democratic socialism and uh totalitarianism. And you got

1939
01:38:40.159 --> 01:38:46.199
a guy there, uh, a former YouTuber and uh, you know,

1940
01:38:46.840 --> 01:38:50.359
an internet star, and he's just talking common sense, just

1941
01:38:50.359 --> 01:38:52.800
says Hey, you know, it's not about being a Democrat

1942
01:38:52.920 --> 01:38:55.279
or Republican. It's just, hey, we got problems here in

1943
01:38:55.359 --> 01:38:57.920
River City. We got people that are drug addled. They

1944
01:38:58.000 --> 01:39:00.920
need help. Uh, you know, we got poop in the streets,

1945
01:39:02.000 --> 01:39:04.960
you know, houses that have been burned down that I'm

1946
01:39:05.000 --> 01:39:07.840
in danger. I mean, just some real obvious stuff that

1947
01:39:08.199 --> 01:39:10.359
you know, you think that your your government should be

1948
01:39:10.439 --> 01:39:15.119
handling for you. Right. But other than that, the Democrats

1949
01:39:15.159 --> 01:39:16.079
are doing well.

1950
01:39:17.199 --> 01:39:19.560
And then uh, you know, don't forget Chuck Schumer and

1951
01:39:19.640 --> 01:39:22.760
Haqeen Jeffries and uh, you know their lineup for twenty

1952
01:39:22.800 --> 01:39:24.880
twenty eight. The leading candidate I saw in a recent

1953
01:39:24.920 --> 01:39:27.640
poll was Pete Buddha Judge. Yeah, I mean, and and

1954
01:39:27.760 --> 01:39:31.159
come on, I mean he's no president and AOC so

1955
01:39:31.199 --> 01:39:35.359
I mean it's Buddha Judge, AOC new some of course.

1956
01:39:36.439 --> 01:39:40.680
Harris, Yeah, Katla Harris is still trying, but nobody cares.

1957
01:39:40.760 --> 01:39:43.720
You know, there's no there's no moderate.

1958
01:39:43.960 --> 01:39:46.199
Uh, there's nobody there that can appeal to be on

1959
01:39:46.319 --> 01:39:49.359
the far left base of the Democrat Party. So you know,

1960
01:39:49.439 --> 01:39:52.239
the Republicans again have a real opportunity. You know, California

1961
01:39:52.319 --> 01:39:56.479
is a great uh interesting experiment here will the voters

1962
01:39:56.520 --> 01:39:59.319
who have been voting for left wing Democrats for decades

1963
01:39:59.640 --> 01:40:04.239
take it chance on a common sense Republican who's a businessman,

1964
01:40:04.279 --> 01:40:07.800
who's from the outside, who has great ideas, who was

1965
01:40:07.880 --> 01:40:10.960
shaking things up, and we'll see, I mean, we'll know.

1966
01:40:11.560 --> 01:40:14.960
And he certainly has, you know, created a lot of

1967
01:40:15.359 --> 01:40:16.439
interest in that race.

1968
01:40:16.680 --> 01:40:17.720
I love what he's done.

1969
01:40:18.560 --> 01:40:21.600
I think he is a sort of Trumpian in his

1970
01:40:21.880 --> 01:40:23.880
in his boldness, and the fact that he comes from

1971
01:40:23.920 --> 01:40:26.520
reality TV, just like President Trump did.

1972
01:40:27.279 --> 01:40:29.760
So I'm pulling for him, Bill, I'm pulling for him.

1973
01:40:30.119 --> 01:40:33.800
Well, I am as well as being you know, you know,

1974
01:40:33.920 --> 01:40:36.039
I was born and raised in California. I've been here

1975
01:40:36.039 --> 01:40:40.000
in Florida now for the last fifteen sixteen years, but

1976
01:40:40.079 --> 01:40:43.720
I still have children and grandchildren there, great grandchildren even

1977
01:40:44.159 --> 01:40:47.159
and and it's sad to see what's happened to that

1978
01:40:47.199 --> 01:40:50.800
great state, that once golden state, which I think it

1979
01:40:50.840 --> 01:40:54.399
can be recovered, but it's going to take more than

1980
01:40:55.079 --> 01:40:58.039
you know, Spencer Pratt. And that's what concerns me is that,

1981
01:40:58.319 --> 01:41:01.880
you know, like Trump, I mean, Trump went in, you know,

1982
01:41:01.960 --> 01:41:06.479
went into the deep state headfirst, and all the establishment types,

1983
01:41:06.479 --> 01:41:10.359
even on his own party, and Spencer Pratt. He's going

1984
01:41:10.439 --> 01:41:13.319
to need reinforcements. And but I think that where his

1985
01:41:13.439 --> 01:41:15.840
reinforcements are going to come from, Jeff is from the

1986
01:41:16.520 --> 01:41:18.880
It's from or it's going to be organic. It's going

1987
01:41:18.960 --> 01:41:21.239
to be from the people out there in Los Angeles

1988
01:41:21.319 --> 01:41:23.520
and said, hey enough, and they're going to back him

1989
01:41:23.600 --> 01:41:26.119
up because he's not going to be able to count

1990
01:41:26.119 --> 01:41:28.600
on a lot of these councils. Well, people that have

1991
01:41:28.640 --> 01:41:30.039
been so established, go ahead.

1992
01:41:30.560 --> 01:41:33.840
I think the polls are not accurately counting his support.

1993
01:41:34.840 --> 01:41:37.600
My impression is, you know, he's got more support than

1994
01:41:37.600 --> 01:41:39.239
the polls. I mean, the polls are showing like a

1995
01:41:39.640 --> 01:41:43.119
three way race, very close, right, and I think he's

1996
01:41:43.159 --> 01:41:46.439
going to have more support than the polls indicate. And listen,

1997
01:41:46.479 --> 01:41:48.319
I mean the people out there, I mean, maybe they're

1998
01:41:48.359 --> 01:41:51.760
they're tired of seeing the homeless, they're seeing the drug addicted,

1999
01:41:52.359 --> 01:41:55.680
they're tired of the crime, they're tired of incompetence. I

2000
01:41:55.720 --> 01:41:59.039
mean their homes burned down. I mean, and he comes

2001
01:41:59.039 --> 01:42:02.399
from a real point of experience. I mean, he dealt

2002
01:42:02.399 --> 01:42:05.199
with that, He saw the incompetence, It had consequences for him,

2003
01:42:05.800 --> 01:42:09.760
and I just love the freshness that he's offering the humor.

2004
01:42:10.920 --> 01:42:14.319
I mean, he's going right after them, right, And that's

2005
01:42:14.479 --> 01:42:17.520
that's a great example for what Republicans need to do.

2006
01:42:18.000 --> 01:42:20.880
We've got too many Republican candidates that play it safe.

2007
01:42:21.079 --> 01:42:23.239
They don't want to shake things up. You know, the

2008
01:42:23.279 --> 01:42:25.279
same kind of people we see in the Senate that

2009
01:42:25.680 --> 01:42:29.880
don't like to work with President Trump. His nominees aren't

2010
01:42:29.880 --> 01:42:33.399
getting confirmed, his agenda's not getting passed. We have a

2011
01:42:33.439 --> 01:42:36.159
stalemate going on. He's got all these rhinos that are

2012
01:42:36.159 --> 01:42:41.079
trying to stop everything. So Spencer Pratt is the kind

2013
01:42:41.079 --> 01:42:43.159
of future I'd like to see for the Republican Party

2014
01:42:43.159 --> 01:42:46.600
as opposed to somebody like John Thune or you know,

2015
01:42:46.680 --> 01:42:47.479
Mitch McConnell.

2016
01:42:47.520 --> 01:42:51.720
For goodness sakes, Well, yeah, it's what he calls observational politics.

2017
01:42:52.520 --> 01:42:54.359
You go out there, you see a problem and you

2018
01:42:54.479 --> 01:42:59.239
come up with some ideas. What a nice concept, right, right?

2019
01:42:59.680 --> 01:43:02.239
I mean right? And the deal is also you know,

2020
01:43:02.560 --> 01:43:04.520
you know, you talk about these rhinos, and these people

2021
01:43:04.560 --> 01:43:08.359
are getting the way. Look look what happened with this bill. Well,

2022
01:43:08.479 --> 01:43:12.399
the money that Trump was paid for the warfare, you know,

2023
01:43:12.479 --> 01:43:15.399
lawfair that was raged against him. So he gets right

2024
01:43:15.720 --> 01:43:20.079
one point seven seven six billion. I'm going to put

2025
01:43:20.119 --> 01:43:23.239
it into a fund to heal people that have been

2026
01:43:23.279 --> 01:43:27.840
subjected to lawfair in the Biden administration. And the Rhinos

2027
01:43:28.119 --> 01:43:31.640
go in the fetal position. The Democrats already there, were

2028
01:43:31.680 --> 01:43:34.840
already primed for that, but then the Rhinos join in

2029
01:43:34.880 --> 01:43:37.359
their camp. And now that gets in the way of

2030
01:43:37.359 --> 01:43:40.560
the reconciliation bill. Well, Trump goes, okay, I'll play the game.

2031
01:43:40.600 --> 01:43:42.199
We'll just take it off the table. We want to

2032
01:43:42.239 --> 01:43:46.079
talk about. Yeah, and let's get the reconciliation bill passed

2033
01:43:46.319 --> 01:43:48.479
and then we'll deal with that later, right.

2034
01:43:48.479 --> 01:43:49.680
Right, right.

2035
01:43:49.800 --> 01:43:52.199
And in the meantime, the people that were abused during

2036
01:43:52.279 --> 01:43:55.920
J six don't get compensated. In the meantime, are judges

2037
01:43:56.119 --> 01:43:59.720
and our ambassadors and all these Trump nominees are getting

2038
01:43:59.720 --> 01:44:03.560
confrons earned. In the meantime, the Save America Act continues,

2039
01:44:03.680 --> 01:44:07.640
uh not to get passed. So uh, the Republicans in

2040
01:44:07.680 --> 01:44:10.479
the Senate are not delivering for the people that put

2041
01:44:10.520 --> 01:44:13.800
them there to get things done to work with President Trump.

2042
01:44:14.199 --> 01:44:16.279
And my worry, Bill is that's going to really hurt

2043
01:44:16.359 --> 01:44:18.359
us in the midterms if we don't deliver for the

2044
01:44:18.439 --> 01:44:20.760
voters that put us there. I mean, it's you know,

2045
01:44:21.039 --> 01:44:22.960
it's simple. I mean, you go up there to get

2046
01:44:22.960 --> 01:44:24.640
a mission done. If you're not going to get the

2047
01:44:24.680 --> 01:44:27.920
mission done, the people are gonna uh you know, uh,

2048
01:44:28.199 --> 01:44:31.159
make sure that you pay the price. And for the Republicans,

2049
01:44:31.159 --> 01:44:33.680
it could be losing control of the Congress. I mean

2050
01:44:33.720 --> 01:44:36.239
President Trump can't do it, all right, He's got to

2051
01:44:36.359 --> 01:44:37.359
have some support.

2052
01:44:38.039 --> 01:44:41.000
Well, well, Trump is dragging them through, you know, He's

2053
01:44:41.039 --> 01:44:43.680
like dragging them off the beaches of Omaha. You know,

2054
01:44:43.760 --> 01:44:47.359
come on, let's go, you know, and and dragging these uh,

2055
01:44:47.439 --> 01:44:50.239
these politicians that are so used to you say, as

2056
01:44:50.319 --> 01:44:53.399
the status quo and uh, and they're getting the way

2057
01:44:53.479 --> 01:44:55.159
and getting in the way, and they're gonna end up

2058
01:44:55.159 --> 01:44:56.720
like you and I talked about a couple of weeks ago,

2059
01:44:56.960 --> 01:44:59.000
this is gonna be Obamacare one more time. You kept

2060
01:44:59.039 --> 01:45:00.640
promising you were going to re pill in place, so

2061
01:45:00.680 --> 01:45:02.680
you didn't do it, and guess what happened. You paid

2062
01:45:02.680 --> 01:45:03.039
the price.

2063
01:45:03.159 --> 01:45:06.520
Right, That's exactly right. And you know, I need to

2064
01:45:06.560 --> 01:45:08.800
see some urgency. I need to see some action. We

2065
01:45:08.880 --> 01:45:13.960
got five months bill, five months, and it keeps getting closer,

2066
01:45:14.000 --> 01:45:16.840
and I keep getting worried about it. I'm hearing that

2067
01:45:16.880 --> 01:45:19.359
the president is going to issue an executive order soon

2068
01:45:19.560 --> 01:45:24.520
about elections, and you know that'll hopefully help guarantee the

2069
01:45:24.520 --> 01:45:27.720
safety of our elections because the Save America Act is

2070
01:45:27.760 --> 01:45:31.159
obviously not going to get passed, so he's he's.

2071
01:45:31.000 --> 01:45:31.760
Going to have to do it.

2072
01:45:32.079 --> 01:45:34.960
There's been some minor headway with an executive order that

2073
01:45:35.119 --> 01:45:38.119
even the Court's supported, So we'll see what happens, you know,

2074
01:45:38.159 --> 01:45:40.359
at first draft, because the Democrats aren't going to take

2075
01:45:40.359 --> 01:45:43.239
it lying down. They're going to be fighting and fussing

2076
01:45:43.720 --> 01:45:46.800
every inch of the way, even though you have, like

2077
01:45:46.800 --> 01:45:49.600
you said, the Save America Act. You know, this is

2078
01:45:49.600 --> 01:45:53.000
an eighty percent, eighty twenty issue, right press don't care,

2079
01:45:53.319 --> 01:45:53.680
you know.

2080
01:45:54.119 --> 01:45:55.439
And look at what they're doing.

2081
01:45:55.520 --> 01:45:58.720
Everything he does, the second he signs that executive order,

2082
01:45:58.760 --> 01:46:00.880
they take it to court. I mean, the second he

2083
01:46:00.960 --> 01:46:03.800
tries to beautify the Kennedy Center, they take it to court.

2084
01:46:03.880 --> 01:46:07.119
Compensate people that have been damaged, they take it to court.

2085
01:46:07.279 --> 01:46:11.199
Everything he is doing, I mean, it's just it's amazing

2086
01:46:11.279 --> 01:46:13.560
the refuge that they have among these liberal judges.

2087
01:46:14.520 --> 01:46:16.720
We've got a liberal judiciary bill.

2088
01:46:16.640 --> 01:46:18.880
Oh no doubt about it. And there needs to be

2089
01:46:18.920 --> 01:46:21.600
some serious consideration on impeaching some of these people because

2090
01:46:21.600 --> 01:46:24.319
they're idiotic and somebody needs to step in and do

2091
01:46:24.399 --> 01:46:26.399
something about it. I mean, look what Trump's doing, to

2092
01:46:26.439 --> 01:46:28.840
your point, all getting us ready for the two hundred

2093
01:46:28.840 --> 01:46:31.840
and fiftieth birthday. You would think that, hey, look at

2094
01:46:32.119 --> 01:46:34.720
our two hundred and fifty birthday, had time to celebrate.

2095
01:46:35.039 --> 01:46:37.840
And look what he's done in transforming Washington, d C.

2096
01:46:38.079 --> 01:46:42.399
All the upgrades, getting rid of crime, the drug infestation, everything,

2097
01:46:42.760 --> 01:46:46.359
And I mean he's beautifying Washington, DC again.

2098
01:46:46.439 --> 01:46:49.520
It's amazing and he gets zero credit for it.

2099
01:46:49.920 --> 01:46:51.680
And all they say is that he's trying to do

2100
01:46:51.840 --> 01:46:55.439
vanity projects and it's all about him. You know, I

2101
01:46:55.439 --> 01:46:58.399
think he's trying to help the citizens of Washington, d C.

2102
01:46:58.600 --> 01:47:01.800
By creating a safe city, a city that has attractions.

2103
01:47:02.279 --> 01:47:05.000
I mean, everybody should be behind this. Look at all

2104
01:47:05.039 --> 01:47:07.439
these artists now that have gotten out of the freedom

2105
01:47:07.479 --> 01:47:13.560
to fifty concerts. You know, it's it's disheartening that politics

2106
01:47:13.560 --> 01:47:15.760
has got to get into everything.

2107
01:47:15.960 --> 01:47:19.079
Right well, because that's what happened. That's the way the

2108
01:47:19.119 --> 01:47:23.039
Democrats like it to be. It's it's really an infectious disease.

2109
01:47:23.680 --> 01:47:27.960
And you know what should always happen is politics should

2110
01:47:28.000 --> 01:47:32.000
be down. You know down line of the people and

2111
01:47:32.039 --> 01:47:36.159
what's happened. It's preempted itself. It's put itself in priority

2112
01:47:36.239 --> 01:47:38.760
above the people. And when that happens, that's why we're

2113
01:47:38.800 --> 01:47:40.439
at each other's throats and we get the kind of

2114
01:47:40.479 --> 01:47:43.880
politics that we're dealing with right now because it's all partisan.

2115
01:47:44.920 --> 01:47:47.880
And back you know, it was different in the era

2116
01:47:48.000 --> 01:47:50.680
of Reagan, in the era of Gingrich. I mean, you

2117
01:47:50.760 --> 01:47:53.720
had the parties working together, You had balanced budgets, you

2118
01:47:53.720 --> 01:47:56.520
had surpluses back then. I mean we have had a

2119
01:47:56.560 --> 01:48:00.479
surplus in twenty five years, but I mean they cut

2120
01:48:00.479 --> 01:48:03.960
the budget together, they reformed welfare together, they did some

2121
01:48:04.000 --> 01:48:09.039
pretty important things. And now there's no cooperation. There's no

2122
01:48:09.159 --> 01:48:11.439
chance that the parties will work together to get anything

2123
01:48:11.479 --> 01:48:12.359
meaningful done.

2124
01:48:12.760 --> 01:48:15.840
Because back then, Jeff, they were of one mind. They

2125
01:48:16.359 --> 01:48:18.479
knew what hill we were going to conquer. It was

2126
01:48:18.520 --> 01:48:20.720
just a process. Okay, you're gonna do it from the left,

2127
01:48:20.720 --> 01:48:21.880
you're gonn do for the right, but we're going to

2128
01:48:21.920 --> 01:48:24.520
after the hill. Today it's like, forget about the hill.

2129
01:48:24.840 --> 01:48:29.600
I mean they want the absolute annihilation of the American dream.

2130
01:48:29.800 --> 01:48:33.479
Yeah, and that's the difference. The Democrat Party has gone

2131
01:48:33.520 --> 01:48:36.920
so far left. They've been taken over by communists and

2132
01:48:36.960 --> 01:48:40.479
socialists and people like Bill Clinton who were sort of

2133
01:48:40.479 --> 01:48:42.119
a moderate on some issues.

2134
01:48:42.880 --> 01:48:45.319
They don't exist. There's no blue dog Democrats.

2135
01:48:45.680 --> 01:48:51.600
There's no they're not They're not allowed in the tents anymore. Yeah,

2136
01:48:51.600 --> 01:48:53.560
they're kicked out of the tent. They're not allowed. So

2137
01:48:54.039 --> 01:48:56.880
that's the situation that we're dealing with. And meanwhile, hey,

2138
01:48:56.920 --> 01:48:58.520
we the people, we got to put up with them,

2139
01:48:58.800 --> 01:49:01.600
and you know, here we are, you know, to your point, Jeff,

2140
01:49:02.079 --> 01:49:04.760
it's like we're negotiating with the Taliban or you know,

2141
01:49:04.880 --> 01:49:06.800
the IRGC. You know what I'm saying.

2142
01:49:07.680 --> 01:49:10.640
I mean, Jeff, I mean Hakeem Jefferies is a left

2143
01:49:10.640 --> 01:49:12.960
wing radical. I mean Chuck Schumer. I mean that's there,

2144
01:49:13.079 --> 01:49:16.199
that's their leadership. I mean, people running for president are

2145
01:49:16.279 --> 01:49:19.159
far left. So yeah, we gotta we've got to deal

2146
01:49:19.199 --> 01:49:21.880
with that. And I wish we had Republicans with a

2147
01:49:21.960 --> 01:49:25.279
spine up there, would stand for our values, who would

2148
01:49:25.279 --> 01:49:28.479
represent the people that sent them up there. But unfortunately

2149
01:49:28.479 --> 01:49:30.119
we just have too many marshmallows.

2150
01:49:30.159 --> 01:49:33.880
So it's gonna be for Donald Trump, though, thank god

2151
01:49:33.920 --> 01:49:36.520
for Donald Trump showing them what a spine looks like, right.

2152
01:49:37.199 --> 01:49:38.840
Yeah, and you would have thought that that would have

2153
01:49:38.920 --> 01:49:41.520
rubbed off on more of these people. Uh, and it

2154
01:49:41.560 --> 01:49:43.399
really hasn't. I mean, you don't see a lot of

2155
01:49:43.399 --> 01:49:46.680
people emulating him. I mean he stands alone. I mean,

2156
01:49:46.720 --> 01:49:50.159
there's not a lot of people in Congress that show

2157
01:49:50.239 --> 01:49:51.439
that kind of toughness.

2158
01:49:51.520 --> 01:49:52.119
There's really not.

2159
01:49:52.800 --> 01:49:54.960
Well, look what's happening. The market is starting to spin

2160
01:49:55.039 --> 01:49:55.880
them out though, right.

2161
01:49:56.960 --> 01:49:59.960
I mean you look at the things we did our

2162
01:50:00.119 --> 01:50:02.479
We did our job here in Louisiana. We got rid

2163
01:50:02.520 --> 01:50:07.479
of hoppel on Cassidy, yes, and Texas got rid of

2164
01:50:07.720 --> 01:50:10.640
Cornin and we got to keep doing it. But the

2165
01:50:10.680 --> 01:50:12.479
problem is they're going to be up there for seven

2166
01:50:12.600 --> 01:50:15.119
or eight more months and it's going to be it's

2167
01:50:15.159 --> 01:50:18.319
going to be a tough next few months, that's for sure.

2168
01:50:18.760 --> 01:50:20.960
Well not for the faint of heart, right, I mean,

2169
01:50:21.199 --> 01:50:23.560
freedom comes at a cost, ladies and gentlemen. He's the

2170
01:50:23.640 --> 01:50:26.920
