0:00 Are you ready? Yeah, Okay, let's do an Ill Martinez Live a program about current events, our culture, our values, our politics, and our future. And now Bill Martinez. Hey, good morning to you. Six minutes after the top, they are Bill Martinez here with the President of Americans for tax for former America's preeminent center right expert on taxes, the one and only Robert Norquis. Say, Robert, how you doing? They all doing very well? Well? Is your head still spinning after Tuesday's primaries? I mean the socialists they've been saying they're coming. Well, guess what. They're here now, alive and well and out of the closet. Huh. Well, they're good. And the bad news, the bad news is for New York. This is not going to be pleasant.

0:45 The good news is because we have a federalist system, because the people in New York can only really mess up New York City and New York State short term. We can watch what happens in New York when they put limits on how much you can charge you evil person who rents out one of your rooms in your apartment, and they say we have to put limits on it, and then you go, well, I guess then it's not worth my while. So now you have more homelessness as they learn again a three thousand year old history about how price controls don't work and wage controls don't work, and all of the things that they think are really new in interesting because they read them in high school or college. They're going to painfully after it. But here's the good news. Right next door, there are the other states going, we're not crazy, and people can move. There's not a Berlin Wall around New York. They can't keep you there, so they have to limit the damage.

1:48 Well, people are already moving out, as you know, and because they saw it coming and with mom Donnie taking over and now seemingly having a tighter gripp holed. But you know, you talk about rent control. I mean, this is a slum lord in the making. But the slum lord, the lord himself, is going to be the city, right because there's no way they're going to be able to keep it up. No, And and where we really got slums created was when the government came in and created low cost housing, meaning very expensive housing that they don't charge much for Jerry, high cost to taxpayers. And one of the great things is when Malay the new president in Argentina came in to reject all those years of Juan Peronism, and which is really what socialism in New York is. It's wand Paronisms give money of the labor unions to control workers and give money to your friends. And as things collapse around because people leaver stop working, you blame somebody else and call the army out. But they have a new government there. Malay is the libertarian, free market conservative guy.

2:56 And one of his rules was he said, those of you in charge of like low cost housing, are not allowed to call it low cost because it's very expensive. You can call it subsidized housing, but you may not in any official document refer to something in the cost twice as much as the private sector low cost. I love that idea. I wish we'd do that here, well exactly and then here. I mean it's all a ruse. I mean, it's sleight of hand. That's what goes on. It's the way politicians work, sadly, and it's really duped the people. But you know, as they said, they're out of the closet now and you see what's happening. I mean, you've got people from other countries now because the World Cup, we can be thankful for it. They're excited. I mean, whether it's BUCkies or in and Out or other things Walmart. You know, the amount of products that are available, it's beyond them. And of course you know they're loving some of them, our condiments on top of it, but overall they're almost reminding the rest of America why we love America.

3:56 To have the Europeans come over to soccer their sport, and to discover America and put it online. I don't know what happened before now, whether they there's that many here, whether they're going to places outside of the you know, just going to national parks which introduce you to Bears, but not America, you know, but you go to small towns or medium sized towns and they're having these games all over the place. You really see the country and they realize the size of the houses, the low cost of you get second and third cups of coffee or a diet coke and a restaurant you go. Really they know, ice cubes, things they don't have over there. Air conditioning, I mean, the number of there's a sad part the number of Europeans who die from heat too much heat is very high, very low in the United States, very high over there. They don't have air conditioning to speak of.

4:56 And it's maybe it's part of their effort not to use energy or something, but or they just can't afford it. But Europe is a poor continent compared to the United States. We forget that because we go visit and we go to Paris, the downtown area, like a couple of square miles, and oh, there's lots pretty fancy, pretty new, and we go visit cathedrals that nobody actually goes to, but they're pretty, and we come back and go, that's pretty impressive. If we'd gone half a mile out, you'd have seen depressing what we would consider depressing housing situations and not very fun places to live. Europe is in decline because of socialism or whatever they want to call it, welfare state.

5:43 For so many to see that and then share it maybe a wake up moment for some Americans who go, why are you surprised? You and I have talked about that study that was done that if Britain became a state, it'd be the fifty first forest Britain, not not Italy, not don't know the Balkans or something Britain used to run the world would be the fifty first poor US state after Mississippi, and Mississippi's getting better and better every year. This is not sustainable for them, and but we ought to at least acknowledge we don't have to lord it out over them all the time. But they're not watching the show, right that the guy's over in Paris, I hope.

6:25 But but Americans do need to realize how good they happen. Yeah. Well, and the thing is is, with these people coming here, I love, you know, I love their fun and their attitude. And you know, some of the guys are getting carried away and putting parking cones on top of, you know, some of the monuments, and unlike Americans, I mean they actually heard the police. The police said, hey, take it off, and they took it off. You know, the crazy people we have here in this country would tear down the you know, tear down the monument. But you know, it's just it's just fun. It's fun to see them having fun, enjoying themselves in our country and reminding us again of you know, how blessed we are.

7:09 Grover to your point. Yeah, it's and now the key thing is it, Benjamin Franklin, Mister Franklin, what kind of government do we have? The lady says, they come out of the constitution, constitutional convention. He says, the republic, ma'am, if you can keep it. We have a very prosperous republic if we can keep it. And look, that's on every generation. We think of the heroism of the guys who found it and everything. But it's our job not to blow us that's right, and to keep it safe, which is not effortless. It takes a lot of work. Well, because you know, I tell my kids all time, there's this story I know if I share this with you.

7:49 It's a crab in the box. This guy in you was in San Francisco at Alioto's, the restaurant there on the wharf, and he's watching this guy selling and he notices he doesn't put the lid back on the box. You know, they're live crabs. And every once a while he's seeing a pincher sticking out over the edge. He's looking. He goes, there's the water. He goes, what's this guy crazy? What kind of entrepreneur is he? He's going to lose his inventory Finally his curiosity got to him and he goes to the guy and goes, hey, look at I've been watching you sell these crabs. Aren't you afraid they're going to get out? I mean, every once in a while I see a pincher getting out, and you know, and there's the water. They could escape pretty quickly. And the guy says, oh, you don't understand it. He says, crabs are like people. As soon as one tries to get out of the box, the other people, the other crabs pull them back down into the box. And I say, you know, that's an interesting dynamic because in our country here, it is we came up with this great American idea and there were crabs in the box that wanted to pull these revolutionaries back into the box to be, you know, to forego their freedom grower.

8:48 Yeah, it Envy is a deadly sin some people. And Domini thinks it's a political program and you can tap into it for a while, but it really is a disgusting approach to it's life. And when you can kind of expose that that's what they're doing. They try and demonize a group or an industry or something. And then and then we'll tax it and steal their money, and you're not supposed to care because we've already told you they're bad people. It's okay to steal their money. Throughout history, minority groups you know, Armenians and Lebanese in Africa, and Chinese Guys in Asia and Jews other places. You know, a very entrepreneurial people hate them because they're so successful and they're like, oh, come on, that's not the way to run a country, right.

He is the president of Americans for Tax for former America's preeminent center right expert on Texas. You know, it's just reading this story and anytime I hear anything associated with Elizabeth Warren, the flags go up. And now you've got you know, Bernie Marino teaming up with her. Break that down for our audience. What's going on here? This is very very sad and very very dangerous. Ms. Warren.

14:41 Elizabeth Warren is a left wing socialist who really wants the government to run everything okay out of Massachusetts. Uh, it's all a political act for her. She used to be a Republican economist and she decided in Massachusetts if you're want to that have power and that's where you go. So she did. So she actually knows better. She knows this stuff won't work. But I think she's playing to the envy and the hate and that sort of feeling that people have successfully in Massachusetts. Bernie Marino is nominally a Republican from Ohio, which is a ruby red state. He was a business guy who sold cars, and he got elected taking the pledge and never to raise taxes.

15:23 He got elected running as a Reagan Republican. He got elected wanting to be for limited government. He said he was never going to get into the and when there was a movement by some in the White House, some people were trying to betray the president and get him to take the top rate and raise it like Biden and Obama and all these other left wing Democrats want to do, because that playing to envy. You know, we'd have pro growth stuff over here, but then we'd have this envy thing going for us, like that was a virtue instead of a sin. And this was very sad. I mean, the President called me the day before he made the night he made his final decision, and there was a lot of pressure from that pressure. But people yammering at him in his staff, okay, in the White House, and the president vice president was a cheerleader for this process was written up in the Wall Street Journal at the time, and his people were all pushing for this.

16:17 It wasn't It was a close run thing, except Trump said no, no, no, So it happened. Ernie Marino at the time was a hero and denouncing this idea. This can never happen. We should not be playing envy and so on. And he just not only co sponsored with Elizabeth Warren Bernie Marino Republican nominally now I guess, and the lady Democrat in Massachusetts. They wrote a piece in the New York Times. Right, it's not like he thought this was some conservative thing. He was tricking her into. You know what it is. It's a three trillion dollar tax increase over ten years, a three trillion dollar tax increase which would eat up almost all of the Trump tax cut.

17:00 Yeah, the big beautiful bill which is vapor. Yeah, exactly. Why in the world. And you know, he goes, oh, we're gonna save SoC security. Oh really, You're going to give the Democrats three trillion dollars and they gonna do what with it. Let's see, when Clinton got elected, SO Security was going bankrupt, he raised taxes and he spent none of it on SO Security. Then when Obama got elected and Sostcurity was also going bankrupt, they raised a bunch of taxes and none of what's so security. And they set up a new spending program which is going to go bankrupt even more than sold security. And then Biden comes in and he's got the ninety trillion dollars that he wanted to spend on the Great New Deal, the trillions of dollars spent, Oh, I'm sorry, and taxes nothing for SOCI Security. This is just the last trick that they go to the new kid on the black I'm sorry, but Bernie's the new kid in Washington evidently doesn't understand when somebody who hates you and wants to see you die and the dirt offers you, you know, a good idea, you might double check it with your friend, see if it's a good idea.

17:59 Quote quote good good idea right. Every center right now, analyst in town and around the country has just hammered Bernie Marino led his way into office, said he would oppose all tax increases. Now he's cheerleading for a three trillion dollar tax increase, fibbing, and maybe he's not lying, but he thinks that this would go somehow to social Security. Really, really, you put three trillion dollars in the hands of the Democrats, and every once in a while they were in the House of the Senate, boom boom, it's gone in a ear, it's gone. Right. Yeah. The thing is, it's consistent. If you want to know what somebody is going to do, look what they've done. And the Democrats have always done that, So why would we think different now. So this proposal that eliminates Social Security payroll tax cap, how does this work or does it work?

18:52 Well, what this really hits is small and medium sized businesses. That's who it's going to smash. A lot of independent contractors, independent workers. If you're an independent contractor or, you run a small business as a sub chapter as corporation. Basically you run the company as if inside your income tax so you pay personal income taxes on everything that's earned by the company. So the companies, you know, everything you put into making the things get better and better in the future, and like investments and so on, that all goes in and it's treated as if it was your money and you look like a rich person when you're really a business with money and assets to get stuff done.

19:37 They want to have twelve plus percent on both sides of Social Security. Technically, you pay six percent and your employer pays six percent if you have a job with a company. Okay, of course, the company doesn't see that money as far as they're concerned. It's yours. They're just sending it to the government for you. So you really have your paid six percent more than you think you are. It just gets taken away, gets sent to the government for soci Security, and then there's the six percent things. So it's about twelve to half percent of your salary goes to the federal government for Social Security. There's no lock box, as al Gore wanted to create. No lock box.

20:17 There's no money in a box. There's no investment in a box in a cave or anywhere in Washington, d c. The checks come in from you and they go out for your mom or your grandma. Okay, out the door the next day. There's no savings. The challenge is unlike a real pension, like most Americans have sixty five percent of Americans are in the stock market. Mostly that's people who have a job, and it's called a pension, but what it really is is your savings. It's your life savings, and then it builds up and then when you retire you can live off the savings. You can sell the money that's accumulated. If your social security was done the same way as they do in Chile in some other countries, and instead of taking twelve percent of your salary every year, every year, at every paycheck really and spending it and sending it to the government, it went into your savings, then what would happen is you could save that during your lifetime and you'd be much better off. You'd actually get more money than social security. I'm sorry, I'm trying to kill my phone and then I held it down on the wrong thing. It started to make a noise like an emergency. I'm afraid the cops are going to show up and see what the problems that turned it off.

21:31 They can't find me now. So you'd be better off if you took SoC security, put it into a four to one k or an IRA, then you'd be rich and have money to spend, much better than soci security. The present sociecurity system makes you poor, okay, because it's a They don't invest the money. They just take the money from you now, send it out the door, and then later your children or your grandchildren pay for you. So if you just stopped doing it and let people put money in a four wink, we'd all be better off their transition costs and so on. And you have to figure out how to do that. But dropping three trillion in doesn't save social Security. It just pushed backs the date when it all falls apart again, right exactly, Because we've had many of these dates where it all falls apart. The solution each time has been raised taxes and make the problem worse in the future. So we need to not raise taxes. Raising taxes is what politicians do instead of fixing a problem.

22:29 Were they ever supposed to yield any kind of interest ROI off that money they were taking from the people. Was it ever presented that way. People think of it? They renamed it so it's now not social certain. They don't call it an investment because it isn't. They don't call it a retirement savings plan because there's no savings. I think they've gotten a little more honest in the way it's presented. Back in the thirties when they first put it in. You know, the first woman to get so security check had just turned sixty five and they gave her a check. Where that money come from people who just started working. And so for a while, when we had many more young people than old people because we had more children, but older people didn't live as long, then you could have ten people giving a little bit in and then the one person could have a lot of money when they retired.

23:24 But as the numbers are down to like two to one, you've got two people working for one, you guys think, and there's no build up of capital. I think the best thing to do is to dramatically expand education savings accounts, health savings accounts, your four or one K, your IRA, your portable pension that goes with you from job to job, so you don't I mean people used to get stuck in a job. The golden handcuffs they called them, because if you didn't stay there twenty years and didn't vest nothing, you walked out the door, you had nothing. Now its yours and it goes with you, which is a big improvement for everybody, and most people now have that, and we've not thanks to Trump accounts that twenty four million kids are going to get it like this exactly and have some money being saved the parents cannot to.

24:18 Next time, you and I have really got to get into this. We touched on it, I think a couple of meetings ago, but I really want to open up this bucket of worms, because you know, you think the way the government has handled unions. They make sure that their retirement funds are vetted, they're invested, they get an ROI and here we are, the American people that are feeding, you know, the big engine, and we get bubkis. Yes. Unfortunately, because Roosevelt wanted to show immediate payout, so instead of saying, okay, we're going to start saving this and then pay it for you, they immediately took the money and spend it out the door, so that there was no savings, so it wouldn't be sustainable. It was never sustainable. It's technically called the Ponzi scheme. Exactly one person's dollar and claim you're investing it, but you're really handing it off to the last guy, so that all the new investors lose all their lose their shirts. You go jail for that if you're not the federal government.

25:20 But we need to strengthen for our win ks and iras and health savings accounts and education saving accounts. We are doing that now, and we also need to let people, as Chili did, opt out of Social Security, say thank you very much. I'm gonna do this, and we'll find a way to make every make sure people are whole that stay in the program. But since it's a program scheduled to go bankrupt, the fewer people in it, the better off we are long term. The only people leave voluntarily. It's like I have a better deal over here, Thank you very. Much, exactly.

Hey, Horace, how you. Doing, buddy, Hey, it's great to be on the program. Well, first of all, let me say happy forth to July to you as we're celebrating our two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the greatest country on God's Green Earth here. Huh.

30:30 Well, I keep my flag out a year round because I love America and this is this season. Two hundred and fiftieth anniversary is my favorite time. I was a kid when we had the bi centennial celebration, and I remember a lot of it, and I actually want to see more of it. When I was a kid, it was almost a year long celebration. And I also know how many of my neighbors and friends and community we're excited about it. I see these surveys now that say there's a huge difference between whether you love the country or not.

31:15 Yeah, it's amazing. Conservatives by and large are holding steady ninety percent say they love America. The differential is on the Democratic side, and of course we saw that. You know what happened this past week in New York that the Democratic Socialists are coming out, and I think maybe America is waking up to the reality that our country is under siege. Here. Well, I've been saying for a while, for a couple of years, that you can tell that the progressives, socialists, whatever you want to call these people are on the upswing, and they are in fact hollowing out from the inside and killing the world's oldest political party. Now I lament this because I say competition matters. Yes, they have bad policies, the progressive, the socialists, or whoever these people are. But if you have competition, the Republican Party and the Democrat Party actually thrive and improve. But when the canter has taken over, all you have now is one vibrant party, the Republican Party, and then you have this crippled thing that is the antithesis of what most voters think. Why is that not good? It's not good because if one

32:45 side is the equivalent of vote for me, I'm a serial killer and I'm coming after your children, and the other side gets to just simply say I'm not that, you just skip the kind of dynamic competition that is needed. Yeah, because you're not talking policies at this point. And you know, not a big surprise here, because, as you said, the Democratic Party, you know, with identity politics, they've done exactly that. You know, they have, you know, tried to use the Republican Party as a foil, and all they can talk about is how much they hate Donald Trump and conservatism. Yeah. Well, take the state of Texas where I live. The Democrats haven't had a success statewide for over thirty years.

33:35 And one would say, oh, I have an idea, why don't I change the type of person that I'm going to put up for a nomination as a way to make myself more competitive for the last thirty years. But guess what. Instead of doing that, the Democrats have run candidates that are even more radical than the candidates that ran just four years ago. It's like suicide by politics. And it is a reason. And the reason is as the Democrats are getting smaller and smaller, the share of the people who are the crazies become way more dominant.

34:22 If you want people to put your signs up, it's the crazies that are going to put the signs up. If you hold a convention, it's the crazies that show up, and until some senior adults within the party stand up, this trend continues. I saw a survey twelve percent of people self described Democrats love America. Well, it's the job of those twelve percent to figure out how to take their party back or else they're headed for a collapse. But America suffers if we don't force both parties to compete, be dynamic, and offer the best options to the American people.

35:10 You're exactly right. We have been suffering for a long time, and here we are thirty nine trillion dollars in debt and counting horse. Oh. Absolutely, we absolutely need a pro growth movement, an effort that brings success and prosperity to the American people while paying off our debts. We are out of control on that. But there's no incentive to actually try that because one of the party says I will mutilate your nine year olds or sex organs, and the other party says, I promise not to. You don't really get dynamic opportunities.

35:56 You don't get a real potential in provements. Oh and by the way, a whole bunch of the things that are now differences between the party used to not be crime control used to be uniform. Immigration control used to be uniformly accepted by all sides. Patriotism, celebration and love of the country used to be universal. The radicals that are hollowing out from the inside the world's oldest political party, and you can go and look it up. There is no political party on the planet today older than the Democrats, and yet they are on their deathbed because the crazies are killing it.

36:44 Well, this ideology is metastasizing. How does it not get how does it not get into the Republican party horse. Well, I don't see any sign that that is happening. I just see that there isn't much much reason for the right to be more dynamic. We, as I said, or have a staggering debt problem, and even culturally Americans have more credit card debt than they've ever had before. We really need to start moving away from that. And by the way, the people that pay cash for more of their things, As that number of them increases, the price of items will go down. And you say, oh, what are you talking about. Well, when people have to pay cash for things, they will tell the plumber, no, I'm not gonna pay your two thousand dollars, and suddenly the plumber says, well, I like your business. What if we did six hundred. The same is true for car manufacturers, the same is true for seers. All of these things you change the dynamic when people start actually paying out of pocket. We have a tax system where we automatically take your money and we don't let you write a check for it, and so people don't really pay attention to how much. They know they don't want to pay

38:15 too much. And so what we've been doing is saying, to the least among us, we're gonna let you pay less and less and less. What we actually need is an overwhelming majority of Americans to say we got to start living within our means. If I wouldn't buy a whole new home AC system because it costs twenty five thousand dollars, maybe I shouldn't want to buy a whole new free healthcare system like Bernie Sanders once because we can't afford it. But our system is presently encouraging that. Now you bring up an excellent point here, Horace. And the thing is is that you know, thank god, we have President Trump that's trying to do something about it, but he needs reinforcements. He can't do this all by himself.

39:05 Well he can't. He can't. But the circumstance that we're at right now is it's safer for an opponent to one of the crazies not to rock the boat. There is no doubt that once we get back on a debt reduction plan that there will be some squealing that takes place. We really really need that kind of fortitude to get that done. Elon Musk was helping us to do that, but Elon Musk has now turned his focus back on his business. We need someone influential, we need someone impactful. We need actually a party that is willing to do it. When the last time that we had a surplus it was a bipartisan thing. Exactly, And this argument for why the hollowing out of one of the parties is such a terrible idea exactly.

We're talking with Horace Cooper, the nationally recognized legal commentator and as young fellow with the National Center for Public Policy Research and co chair of the Project twenty one National Advisory Board. Well, Horace, you know, something has got to give. I mean, we've got a party, as you say, as being hollowed out, and you know, and this is all what you're talking about, it really demands leadership. Outside of leadership, it doesn't. I think we've learned some things under the leadership of Donald Trump, and I'm only hoping and praying that somehow when the mantle gets turned over to the next president that they would continue on with some of these policies and some of these ideas that Donald Trump has been able to institute and bring to our government, because I mean, they're there's a lot to do here, and he's shipped away and he's opened up some ideas, you know, for us to you know, consider, you know, what tariffs could do, how we can negotiate differently in a way that there's a consideration such as a return on investment, that it's not just the American taxpayer paying out and not getting anything in return.

45:23 Right, So, there's no doubt that our president's leadership has been an amazing advantage for America in the early part of this twentieth century, no doubt about it. But let's look back at another consequential president, and that was Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan showed leadership. Ronald Reagan was decisive, he had a vision, and he helped to steer America. But he also had help from what we're called the bull Weavils, and they were moderate to conservative Democrats that pushed and supported the same agenda. The challenge that we have, and it keeps coming back to this, the challenge that we have is all of the heavy lifting is either done by the president or helped a little bit by his own party, and that requires nearly universal support. You can just go and sit down at a family reunion, and it's hard to get universal support on a particular thing like where we're going to go eat or what's the favorite soft drink. This is what the president is required to do right now, and it's why it's so important.

46:40 Either this metastasis of the on the left needs to accelerate, kill the party and let something new start, or else people need to rise up in that party and stop the metastasis. But where we are right now is putting our whole country in jeopardy. Well, you know, and you can probably go back to win. You know, Congress, these elected officials really lost sight. You talk about leadership and vision, and they lost sight of their reason to exist and the reason they went to d C. When you go to d C and your number one objective becomes about being reelected, then everything else is out the door. And I would say probably the single most modern figure to push that and end up siloing her party was Nancy Pelosi. Nancy Pelosi made it all about getting reelected. This is why she generated so much funds, and she held that money over her constituents in order to get them to do exactly what she said to do.

47:44 Well, I will tell you that I agree that Nancy Pelosi was strategic. I will tell you that I agree that she willed it an iron fist. But I will also tell you that one of the reasons she's no longer speaker is that the inevitable take over by the party that she spent her life in has been dragging it amazingly, remarkably to the left. If she ran to be the leader of her caucus today, she wouldn't win. Hakeem Jeffries won't be the next head of the party come after the November twenty six elections. What I'm telling you is it's a radical push and until that is addressed, a lot of the problems we see that we're trying to deal with, we're only dealing with the periphery.

48:45 You know, you're bringing up something quite interesting here, because I thought maybe the Squad, the so called squad, would require at least another election cycle. But you're suggesting, and you might be right. I could see this happening, that this is this could happen, you know, a lot sooner. So you know, maybe the members of the squad have been in you know, some of them have been undeclared and just waiting, you know, for this momentum to take place, and so we could see even more radical change in the makeup of the leadership of the Democratic Party. Oh, there's no doubt about it. The Senate Minority leader from New York, we are hearing his days are over. Yeah, but look what happened in the New York primary. When they showed Hakeem Jeffrey's face on the screen, the crowd roared that his days were numbered. By the way, we're early.

49:45 We're early in the primary system for this upcoming year. That means we're gonna see even more. We've already knocked out two just in New York replaced an open seat with marks in New York, that's three. And you're gonna look, and you're gonna see in Illinois, you're gonna see in California, California, Thank you, California. And in Pennsylvania you're going to see the kinds of radical changes that are going to make it harder and harder and nearly impossible for even Hakim Jeffries to stay elected unless he announces that he too is a radical. Now he probably is a radical, but he has understood that those views aren't the ones that are supposed to be publicly professed.

50:40 Exactly because the battle they still have to deal with. They might win these local fights, but they're trying to have at least Hakim Jefferies is trying to have some national consequence. And you cannot seem to have national consequence with this kind of ideology, can you? This is such as I said from the this metastasis is so destructive to their party it makes. It nearly impossible to succeed. In twenty eighteen, we looked, I'm talking about public analysts about what was about to happen in the United States. In Florida, in Texas, and in Georgia, the left nominated complete crazies, complete whack jobs.

51:29 And I don't mean to offend people who are wacky that have jobs. These three places lost. Mister Kemp ended up becoming the governor, completely changing the landscape in that state because of the radical that ran in Florida, a brand new two races, the Senate race and the governor race ended up shifting to the right. And now there isn't a chance realistically for statewide success in in Florida. And similarly in Texas, mister bato urorke ran too far to the left. And now when people throw a million dollars for the tallar Rico race, they're just going to be disappointed. This has been crippling and it makes it almost impossible. Sure you can win in New York, Sure, you can win in dark blue states like California, but in the rest of the country, you put yourself out of the prospects for success.

52:41 Exactly. Well, in these last few minutes that we have together, Horse Cooper, I wanted to you get your insight on the latest Scotis decisions. We're still waiting on birthright citizenship and whether or not boys can play in men's sports, but we did get a couple of decisions as of this recording, right. Yeah, So let me tell you what I suggested is a problem that is happening. Look at the Dobbs decision when it came down, it was all but ridden by late February early March, and in fact, when the decision finally came down, there weren't many changes at all. But what was the case. Opponents pretended that they couldn't get their arguments made, they couldn't get their descent completed, and what that did was stretch out the amount of time before the ruling could be issued. I predict that that's the same phenomenon at work today. When you are a justice you can't even tell what a woman or a man is, it very likely that you would stall when it comes time to offer your descent. You see, the opinion can't come down until both the majority decision and the minority decision are completed. These high profile cases are hindered precisely because the minority isn't willing and guess what

54:15 the left wants to do. The left wants to do in response to this is dramatically increase the size of the court so they can quickly put on three hardcore leftists on the court. That this is not a plan of success, it's a plan to delegitimize our court system. So regarding birthright citizenship, they're just continuing to kick this out the road for as long as they can get away with it. Along with whether or not we're going to allow boys to play in girls' sports, then. Well, this is one of the tactics or strategies that we have seen for a while since the three hardcore leftists have gotten on the court. I can't tell you how the court is going to rule on birthright citizenship.

55:09 I can tell you how they should. I can't even tell you how they're going to rule on boys and girls in athletic events. I can tell you how they should. But I can also tell you that the left on the Court doesn't want to see a constitutional decision with regard to birthright citizenship. If the majority says the executive order is unconstitutional, but Congress could by simple statute change it, the left won't be happy about it and they would foot drag. And the same is true about these rules with regard to gender and participation in sporting events.

55:52 Right, well, the courts did give Donald Trump a couple of wins in regard to immigration. Right well, absolutely, and in fact you saw a very very sharp descent. It was a common sense idea that the White House actually can decide whether or not special exceptions are provided to certain people from say like Syria, and if they change their mind, they can decide that those special circumstances don't exist. The descent would argue that that is okay, that you once granted, you get it, you get to keep it. You can't ever change the circumstances.

56:35 But thatinges upon the ability of the executive to make national security determinations. There was a Hawaii vote that said that if you have a permit, the state can't simply ban you from entering any regularly publicly accessible event unless you forfeit your right to a carry concealed, even though Hawaii has granted you that option. So again the court makes progress, and again the descent stalled. Exactly. He's the former constitutional law professor, recognized legal commentator, and author, the one and only Horace Cooper.

I am Bill Martinez and we've got doctor Ishik join us now. She is a former Muslim from Turkey. She's now a global Christian broadcaster and founder of Ishi Goblin Ministries. Doctor Ishik, Welcome the show.

58:53 Good to have you with us. Thank you so much, real good to be with you. Well, you know, it's I'm so grateful for you coming on because our audience needs to be reminded of what we're dealing with here in Iran. Help us understand. I mean there's lots of you know, I often say on the show, and the absence of fact opinion rules, and this is one thing about America, you know, we have I think sometimes we've surrendered facts and the truth for people's opinions and it gets confusing, and I think it gets in the way of finding, you know, the right resolution. If that's fair to say.

59:33 Absolutely, it is fair to say. Because our problem we are dealing in America about Iran situition is not actually political, and there's so much ignorance is going I think that is the biggest problem that we are facing, because we need to separate the dictatorship of Iranian evil regime from the Iranian people who I'm desperate for their freedom. Right, And I remind the audience I go look at You've got to remember the IRGC and the leadership this terrorist regime that is controlling ninety two million people. They mowed down over fifty thousand people in the street.

1:00:16 Yes, and more people are like about right now. Fifty thousand people gave their lives for their freedom. And I want to tell you I didn't learn this from textbooks. This is my life. It is very personal to me what they are going through right now, and it is why I want everybody to pay attention to the cry of human beings that this is not a political game of we are playing right now unfortunately in America between left and right. This is all about human life, human rights. Well, you know, to imagine what it must have taken for the people of Iran to come out in mass numbers, you know, revolting and letting their opinion know about the failure of their government. I mean they had to be at the end of their rope to make that kind of demonstration, right.

1:01:10 Absolutely, Irnu see government is increasing fear based operation and persecution. You know that government is exposed and that government is weak. Because any government or any person really has the confidence, they never do what they are doing right now. Well, I have to say that most Americans who are compassionate towards the Iranian people understand and are grateful to some degree with what President Trump is trying to do. I know that he made a statement about wiping out of civilization. He wasn't referring to the ninety million reasonable Iranians that want that want peace and want liberty. This is the thing that I was encouraged when I watched their courage and their bravery to come out in numbers against their government for the sake of liberty. It reminded me of America's early days almost two hundred and fifty years ago.

1:02:08 Especially, you are so right on this because we live this. We know how. Freedom caused us. This is why I'm so grateful for our military. And when Trump says our president says anything like this, he means this what they where it takes what they were the costs. We are ready to pay it, and actually exactly what Iranians are saying right now. If we need to give all our lives here for our freedom, this is a very historic moment. We are going to do it. You know, President Trump has paused in the name of peace to see if he can negotiate. You are very familiar with, you know, with Islam and the mentality. I mean, this has been going on for a long time. I don't I've just said on the surface as a student in the last several decades of Islam in particularly, I don't know how you can negotiate with a terrorist organization that once you're dead and gone.

1:03:12 I don't believe there's any way you can negotiate under tequila law in Kuran. I am very familiar with it. I have done it. You can swear, you can use the name. Of Allah, you can't say anything, and you can become a line machine gun, but you mean none of the words that you say, or you can even sign papers and it doesn't mean a thing. And this is I believe it, Oh my heart, this is what is happening right now. Unfortunately, so if I'm hearing what you're saying you and I are probably very compatible in realizing that there probably will never be peace with this regime. No, I don't believe in peace. I mean in the name of peace. I call it fake peace. There was peace, anti crisis is going to offer us peace, Bible says, and I am calling this are shaking hands with the devil and it will never work.

1:04:03 Right exactly, Well, there's never been an indication in the history in thousands of years, has there been any indication where where Islam? You know, because for a while there, I mean, we had a former president, you know, saying that Islam was a religion of peace. And even when he said that, I go, that just sounds rather ignorant to me. Yes, more than ignored. Actually, it's part of the ideology, I will say, Bill, because ideology is Jihad is radical Shariah. Ideology is not only physical jihad, economical jihat, media jihat educational in jihad, so educational on jihad and media jihad brainwashes people. Is Islam is a peaceful religion and if you keep hearing it, you are believing it. Paige comes through hearing periods and people start hearing lives after life.

1:04:55 They start believing Islam is the peaceful religion, which Islam is the own on the way peaceful religion. If the entire world passed out to Islam and becomes Muslim, there's no other way of peace. Yeah. And you know it firsthand. You you were married and you survived a severe, abusive and a violent marriage to an extremist that was involved in jihad. Right absolutely. I was part of it. We were doing educational jihad. We were signing students Muslim, radical Muslim students to Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, one of the toughest Ivy League colleges universities so they could become prominent, powerful people in America. And we are seeing and one of them, I do believe it all my heart was our president in a while ago, and you mentioned his name, and I want to tell you this is part of jihad.

1:05:52 Yeah. So this has been going on, not in the last couple of years, this has been going on for decades. Right, Oh, this has been I have been in the United States for thirty years. Thirty years ago. I was part of it. And it is happening right now in front of our eyes. It is being exposed. I should say in front of our eyes right. Now, right, And you've been able to you know, over the thirty years as you first started out, you know, it was a consistent effort to get into the culture and to you know, hit some command posts like education for example. Right as you just mentioned, absolutely, I was so brainwashed that terrorists were not terrorists, they were freedom fighters.

1:06:36 We believe that they were ready to clean ethnic cleansing the world from infidels mainly Christians and Jews America and Israel. And I believe that with all my heart. After going a radical, fanatical Kouran course h twelve years old. How different is it? You know, what you experience with what is happening in America right now in the streets of America sounds similar. It is very similar. And I want to say this. There are Muslims, we call them good Muslims, which is they are look for bake Silidon Muslims. According to Koran, they don't want to fight. I have those people in my family. But if you are a good Muslim, according to Koran, you're gonna die and kill in the name of Allah. There is no other way.

We're talking with doctor eshik and you know, doctor eshik I, I've often said early on that even Muslims who appear to be moderate, that when you know, given a choice, it's easier for them to choose to be a terrorist, to engage in jihad once you know, once the alarm goes off and you've got a power force that says you are now a jihadi, right, you.

1:12:26 Are a jihadi, and it is an honor for a good Muslim to become a jihadi. Number one. Number two, there's no salvation promise in Islam like in the Bible, and there is a promised salvation that you could go to paradise immediately if you kill and die in the name of Allah, and if your life is a living hell on the face of earth, just like we see in a lot of Muslim countries, why not to choose to go to paradise immediately and honoring Allah. I think there are so many good things that they are in deception, devilished deception there or offering to those Muslims that a lot of them are choosing that way unfortunately to become a terrorist.

1:13:07 This has got to be tough for you to witness what you see happening across the country in certain communities, whether we're talking Minnesota, Texas, the mosques that are going up, hundreds of moss that are going up. I mean, I got to imagine the alarms are going off in your head, you know, and all around you. Right absolutely after September eleven, I got. I was a new believer during September eleven. I was one year old in Christ and we said we will never forget. You know, united we stand and we forgot, and we are divided right now. And this is a home land security issue. This isn't a religious issue, this is this is human rights homeland security for me, and this is a trauma for just watching. I am right now in a Times Square, New York City right now for meetings, and I I want to tell you it is trauma right now seeing how people are so freely are being offensive to our freedom here right.

1:14:09 Well, it's amazing to me because you know, I tell our audience that you have the sound of prayer that goes on speaking of New York and Times Square right now? Is that just happening once a week or is that on a daily basis? Now? Well, since we have been mayor here, unfortunate to be an agenda, it is increasing from one to two, three times, five times, and they are proud of it, and they are forcing it. They are forceful. And I think if this is a freedom issue, this means we are losing our freedom as other Stitizans, non believing Muslim Stitizans in America. And this is a scary part of what is going on here. You mentioned in nine to eleven that you were a first year Christian. Tell us about what was it in your life that opened up your to embrace Jesus.

1:15:02 Oh Now, I grew up during Civil War years, Bill, I was traumatized at home. Outside of the home, violence was everywhere, and I was a little girl that witnessed people killing each other during Civil War years, Armstand Lakes Flying, I woke in the Blood Lakes as a nine year old, seven year old and coming to America, I was I escaped for my life from my radical Muslim husband who put a knife on my throat and told me to jump from a very high building. And it was my escape, and I had a high You know, I was a career woman at that time, highly educated, but my mindset was a Muslim, so my education didn't help anything. And after so many failures, I found myself in a place of suicide. On the day I was going to commit suicide, Jesus Christ revealed himself to me in a miraculous day in my Christian boss's office, and I still under my life to him, and he changed my life for the better.

1:16:04 Of course. You know, I've often said that when you are involved in a culture and ideology, it really dumbs you down. How liberating was it for you to accept Christ? And all of a sudden the scales are falling off and you are you're getting a new kind of a download of heavenly intellect? Is that fair to say? It is? It is to have mind of Christ and when they intellect? Because that day, I remember I was twenty eight years old and I was feeling like I was ninety years old. I had the world on my shoulders, and grace of Jesus Christ was tangible, He tangibly physically.

1:16:45 I could feel it. The weight, tons of weight were lifted on my shoulders and I became a new creation. It was so real to me that from that moment on, I became a soul winner and I let have it. People to Christ in the next week days without knowing a single word of God Bible verse. I was just telling them Jesus Christ is real and he saved my life. Just like Summer. It's a woman, bill Well, and just like the blind man I tell people all the times. I think sometimes they try to make their conversion story so complex when it really is so simple, you know. And because that's one of my favorite stories in the Bible, and you talk about a testimony and a witness, it's just the blindness.

1:17:26 I don't understand. All I know I was and now I am, right, Amen. That is the amazing grace on all of our lives once we really know Him on a personal level. Definitely. So obviously you got out of this violent marriage, right, yes, yeah, but you still pray for your husband, don't you. Oh? Yeah, of course. And forgiveness is not an option for us if we want to start our healing journey. And again, we can't expose the radical Islam, but we are still loving them, Jesus said. When I was a first time I heard this from my Christian boss. He said, Jesus says, love your enemies. And that was mind blowing revelation to me because I have never heard anything like that in Islam.

1:18:12 And we need to love them. Yeah, because you're raised with ancient hatred. I mean this is generational, thousands of years of hatred that you know, you weren't the first generation to be, you know, indoctrinated accordingly, and you know you're you're taught to hate, to think that everybody's less than and then and then all of a sudden you start reading the Word of God and you realize, Hey, as a child of God, I am. I am made in the image of God to reflect God's image of love and grace and mercy and forgiveness. Uh. It's like, wow, what what a new beginning for you? Absolutely, you know, Corey Tamboom said books, if people can be taught to hate, they can be taught to love. Yeah, and it is my story.

1:19:01 Well what a great story. And of course we're hearing today. I know that sometimes people freak out when they hear about all the bad news, and I tell people sometimes, you know, I say, you know, I consider myself to be a butt Christian and they go, a butt Christ, What do you mean by buck Christians? I said, well, because when you read the Bible, you hear all the bad news is coming, and it says but for Jesus, but for God. Right, So I say, you know that's me. I'm a butt christ because I believe in that transitional phrase that God uses so powerfully that regardless of how bad it may look. Because look, look what's happening in the Muslim world. I mean, people are dreaming dreams, just the way the Bible said that people would do, and they're coming, and they're dreaming about Jesus.

1:19:44 Yes, Melias are coming to Christ. I want to tell you through our ministry. Also, I had the privilege of leading a terrorist to Christ who wanted to kill me, and he surrendered his life to God gloriously. It was a true moment. And so many of them sometimes writing to me so angry, and the next day they are seeing this man in white in their dreams. So I am not doing this alone because Jesus is with me. We are on the same team, and he's revealing himself to Muslims through dreams and missions. You know what is it like? I mean here it is for all that you've gone through, doctor Shick. Is that you you know you're threatened by a husband, You're living in fear. God liberates you. You are free, you are vibrant, and you are all all in for Jesus.

1:20:40 And you are confronting terrorists eye to eye, face to face that want you dead, and you have the courage and belief in God that you will still speak the truth regardless. Yes, because I didn't learn Islam from textbooks. But I didn't learn also Jesus Christ from textbooks. I have a personal encounter with him. So there is one thing nobody can take it from you when you meet Jesus. And you know in Book of Revelation it says we overcome the enemy. We overcome him how by the blood of the Lamb, by the word of our testimony. So I am obligated. I am called to share my testimony before any message because we can overcome this evil regime and evil deception throughout our testimony. And this is what I am.

1:21:31 Doing because we want everybody to have what we have. Right. Oh, yes, it is almost like you got healed from this disease that nobody could cure. And then when you find a cure, you want everybody to know he is the cure. And for us, Jesus Christ is the cure, and we have to let everybody know about that. Well, doctor zhek Al, But thank you so much. She hosts a TV and digital programs airing in two hundred plus countries in multiple languages.

1:26:09 Nutrition for Patriots. Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez. Here. Good to have you with us sharing a part of your day. For more information on the show and check it out, Bill Martinez Live dot com. The American Cancer Society is estimating there's going to be over two hundred and twenty nine thousand new lung cancer cases in the United States this year. Finding lung cancer early before it spreads greatly improved survival rates, so early detection is critical. Lung cancer screening is considered one of the most effective tools available in early detection, reducing the risk of death from the disease by twenty percent. Michelle Fatralle is going to be joining us. She's a registered nurse and health advocate.

1:26:54 We're going to talk about lung cancer screening, eligibility, the misconceptions surrounding the disease, and why so few high risk individuals are getting screened. Michelle, welcome the show. Good to have you with us. Thank you, it's great to be here. Well, lung cancer third most common cancer in men and women combined in the US, right. Yes, and of course, well and you said you said it. According to the American Cancer Society, in twenty twenty six, they anticipate two hundred and twenty nine thousand to be diagnosed. Wow, that's a growth. So again we're looking at lung cancer being quite prevalent specifically the NSCLC in the United States.

1:27:37 Right, Yeah, non non small cell lung cancer accounts for about eighty to eighty five percent cases of all lung cancers diagnosed. So clearly what we're sounding the alarm on is early detection. It is most important, right. Yes, early detection matters because, just like with other cancers, if lung cancer is found early, it's treatable and sometimes curable, which I think you know, we don't hear that message enough about lung cancer and. The screening guidelines used for testing. Yeah, so the United States Preventative Services Task Force recommends an annual lung cancer screening with a low dose CT based on the current guidelines, which are eighty ages fifty to eighty with individuals with a twenty pack year history those who are currently smoking or have quit smoking within the past fifteen years.

1:28:31 Now, when you say twenty pack history, that's like over the year, right, So we're basically saying, what half a pack a week or something. Well, if you well know, if you smoked about a pack a day for twenty years. Oh, a pack of day. Or half a pack a day for forty years? Right? So yeah, okay, and the cancer screening explain to our audience what does that entail? Sure, it's so, it's a lodos cat scan. And I do like to clarify because I get the question a lot. Is this like the MRI the long tube you go in, And it's not. It's the more donut. We always describe it as the donut shaped machine. So it's open on both ends, and it's a quick scan. The scan usually take.

1:29:15 The scan itself usually takes about less than a minute. There's no IV required, no DIE required. It's quick and it's easy, and it provides a detailed view of the lungs, including the ability to you know, detect small spots or nodules. Michelle, that's incredible. I mean, just like you said, if you go into tube, you could be in the tube fifteen to twenty minutes in most cases generally, and here you're talking about you know, maybe a minute or two. Yes, very matter of fact. A lot of times, you know, I would tell people it takes longer to get you set up for the scan than actually getting the scan itself. So what is a biomarker testing and how can it be used to guide treatment plans following a diagnosis?

1:29:59 Yeah, so you know, you talked about early detection being key, and early detection is key because it leads to early treatment, but you know, we want to make sure it's the right treatment, and the comprehensive biomarker testing at the time of diagnosis allows healthcare providers to consider more tailor or targeted approach to care. You know when you talk about adoption rates of screening for eligible patients in the US, that they still remain low, about twenty five percent, particularly in comparison to other cancer screening programs such as breast and color rectal cancer, which is about sixty five percent. This is revealing a critical implementation gap, right.

1:30:41 Yes, you know, we need to do better with lung cancer screening. And you know, I talked to a lot of people about lung cancer screening and there are still many people that aren't even aware that there is a screening for lung cancer. And so you know, that's part of our message is to talk about it, to raise awareness, and to talk to your doctor or your healthcare provider about screening and you know, lung cancer screening specifically to find out if you're eligible. What are the barriers that are holding this number down? Michelle Well awareness is a big barrier, I think, you know, fear of lung cancer itself can play a role in that, which is why again, you know, we push the message of early detection is key.

1:31:26 And can make a difference even in lung cancer. You know, it's more treatable and sometimes curable, and we don't always get that message out there. People don't always get that message about lung cancer. And there is some stigma surrounding lung cancer right now, the eligibility criterias for those who have smoked, but about fifty percent of individuals diagnosed with lung cancer don't even meet that criteria at time of diagnosis. So stigma can play a role in that as well. Well. With the technology is available and the smart things that are happening in healthcare, you know, maybe we just encourage people as best we can to put aside those fears and let's let's apply some common sense here. So what are you know, Michelle, you know, you're advising people, say in a in a room of you know, let's say twenty thousand people, and you know, what would you tell them that they need to be concerned about and what would make them a candidate to you know, not to pass go or collect two hundred dollars, but go and get checked.

1:32:31 So yeah, I would encourage any well, so anyone who has a history of smoking talk to their doctor about screening to see if they qualify. I think that's the most important thing. Even if you're not sure, just talk to your doctor, talk to your healthcare provider. You know, that's the best thing you can do, is just to have that conversation with them to find out if you are eligible. Yeah. I mean, if you look back in your history and whether talking twenty packs a day or whatever, but you've had a history of smoking, maybe that should be one flag. And especially if it's been a long term kind of a lifestyle. Even though maybe you haven't smoked and you gave up smoking, you know, decades ago, you still want to, you know, be wise about this, right.

1:33:18 Yes, And I would say it's still worth that conversation, you know, with your provider to check into your eligibility for screening or if there's other next steps that they would want want you to take. But I would always encourage just to ask the question, even if you're not sure. Right, we're talking with Michelle Fatall. She's a registered nurse, a director of lung cancer Screening Programs and Initiatives at Longevity Foundation, Michelle, what about people who are around you know, we heard a lot there for a while. I haven't heard a lot lately about people that are around secondhand smoke. Yeah, secondhand smoke as best as exposure, raid on ex exposure, air pollution, occupational hazard or hazards.

1:34:03 These are all. You know, things that can contribute or factors that can drive lung cancer as well, which currently the guidelines don't include these exposures. However, like I said, we always just encourage people to to just to talk to their doctor to find out if they are eligible. So you have to be eligible in order to go through this program. So in order for insurance coverage, there are some programs and you know it's specific to you know, different healthcare facilities. But this is why it's always important to refer back to your provider. There are some programs that do offer screenings outside of guidelines. There's many now that are offering screenings to first responders and firefighters. So you know, it's always worth that conversation to find out if there's in something being offered at your health care facility.

1:35:03 Well, I got to imagine some of these vets who've come back and they've been around burn. Pits, right, Yes, and there are I know the VA has a big screening program as well, and so and there are some programs too that yes, they will you know, they offer that for some of the veterans. Well. As we wrap things up here, Michelle tell our audience about Longevity Foundation. So Longevity we're a national lung cancer advocacy organization dedicated to improving the outcomes for people affected by lung cancer. The Foundation works to advance research into early detection and more effective treatments and to ensure patients you know, have access to these advances. Our mission is to improve survival and quality of life for people living with lung cancer and for their loved ones, while promoting health equity by addressing disparities throughout the care continuum.

Hey, we're back by the Bill Martinez here along with Adam Holtz from plugged in dot com. Mister Adam, how are we doing there on the West Coast? The West Coast is is foggy and chilly this morning, but otherwise.

1:40:33 Okay, and still socialistic. Oh yes, that's a given unfortunately, right, Yeah. They're pretty well talked about being plugged in, right, They're kind of siloed there, and you know, we'll have to see how this plays out. Of course, the East Coast is going through their birth pangs, and you know, I think I hear Paul Revere on the East Coast saying the socialists are coming. Yeah, well, you know, I guess people are going to get to find out, right, let's let's see what happens. And I mean I have an idea because I'm old enough to have lived through it the first time. It's not going to end well, I mean it's but I do think it speaks to you know, a lot of people in the younger generations are just they're fed up with what they see as a lack of opportunity, with inflation, with affordability. The needs are real, and so I get the emotional appeal of the proposed solution, right. And if it seems like, oh, you got a bunch of big companies and a handful of billion and trillionaires getting theirs and we're you know, struggling to scrape buy I get it. Unfortunately, I would suggest that the prescription is not going to cure the disease.

1:41:55 Yeah, we would say in the business context that correct observation, wrong conclusion. You know, these kids are right, I mean, there is pain here in River City. The solution is not to bring on more pain. And as we experienced in COVID that the solution was worse than the disease. And that's what they're being tempted with because you have a lot of theoreticians, you know, these academic types that sit there, you know, in their faculty lounges, drinking up coffee and theorizing, but not having much empirical data, which is amazing because you think these are academics. I mean most academics that I've been around. You know, they have to do their research. They're very well disciplined. They just don't go off shooting at the hip. But it seems in today's environment it's okay to be reckless and just throughout your theories out there like it's proven gospel.

1:42:49 No, that's exactly right, and I think unfortunately, the reality that we're living in today is we're living in an emotional echo chamber. You know, I've said this before. You don't have me on to talk politics. That's not my primary Baileywig. But here's here's where I will, you know, draw the dotted line to what I do, which is entertainment and technology. One of the things we talk about is how the things that we consume on our screens affect our worldview. And I think two things have happened with social media and with media in general. I think the idea and the dream of objective journalism has largely vanished.

1:43:33 You know. Now we just have different advocacy positions and we live in, especially on social media, just this world of emotional argumentation. You know, everything is just emotions turned up to ten. And I get it. We feel things deeply, we want to process it. But when you only ever do that and you operate like that, emotions are are a good thing, right, They're a part of how God designed us, but they're only a part. And you know, I talk to my kids constantly and say, how is what you're watching influencing you emotionally? And when you take a step back from your emotions, how do you see it differently when you're trying to think through anything, you know, a position, an argument, a movie, a song from a rational point of view, Right, what do you see? How is it different? Because I think sometimes we're so programmed at this point to respond emotionally, and our kids especially are that that second step never even happens. And that's how we get you know, these sorts of problems in our culture, which is, you know, we're all wrapped up into this infatuation with socialism when it's pretty clear it's not going to work.

1:44:56 Well, you said something that was key and that is rational and to your olds are not rational, right. Two year olds just want what they want. If not, they're going to hit you. And you know, and that's I mean, here we are. We're we're in a culture where the two year olds have taken over and at some point there has to be a breakthrough here to where we can really break this down. Like you say, you know, maybe we give too much credit to the media. You know, even though they're protected by our constitution, they should be much more responsible. Unfortunately, they got into the bubble and their participants in this two year old program and instead of breaking it down and saying, okay, what is what's the reality of these young kids that can't afford to buy a home? You know, most people in our generation bought homes in their twenties. Kids now can't buy a home until their forties. Average home now they're saying, you know, in many markets a million dollars as a starter home.

1:45:57 I mean, that's just absurd. But you see what happen is what the media is not doing and some of these other people, because they're so caught into this system that may be working for them. You know, we've got a big divide between the haves and have nots. Well, the haves have they they're kind of above the fray. They've figured out how they're not affected so much by government regulations and all these things that are trapping the people on the lower end of the scale, and so they're bogged down. It's unfair for them, and all they feel is like, Okay, there's got to be an answer. And the socialists come in and go, hey, we're everybody's gonna share Kumbaya and all this stuff. But you know, of course the socialists don't tell you that. Yeah, it's true, you're gonna share everything.

1:46:42 You're gonna share it with us. Yeah, but particularly you're gonna share misery. I mean, and if you think not, just to you know, do a little bit of study of what happened in Argentina. I mean, for what seventy eighty years shared misery. There was a mess, and it took their current president to come in and say, hey, look at have you had enough of this stuff? Do you want to try to do something different. Let's go back and see when we were doing well. When we were doing well, we were you know, we were more democratized. We were doing things you know, from a capitalistic, you know point of view, and look what's happened there. I mean, now you've got people that are rejoicing in the streets. Right, No, that's right. And I think whatever problems capitalism may have, and I again, I try to have this conversation with my kids. Yes, there are there's corruption, Yeah, there are people who don't play by the rules, but you get a system that incentivizes entrepreneurship, It incentivizes hard work, it incentivizes people to put their shoulder to the plow, and socialism doesn't do any of that. It incentivizes doing nothing and sitting there with your handout waiting for the government to give you, you know, give you whatever they want to give you, which ain't going to be very much unfortunately.

1:48:03 Yeah. Yeah, And just for example, like one of the big issues is healthcare. We'll just go north to Canada ask them about their healthcare program. How long they have to wait in line? Like you say, how long do you have to hold your hand out for the government that said, hey, don't worry, we'll take care of you. And then all of a sudden they realize, well, Adam, you're kind of being a little bit of a pain. Why don't we just help you? You know, your life is lousy, You don't have a whole much a whole lot to live for, So why don't we just help you exit stage left here with this little bit of medicine. Yeah, I mean, it's it's crazy, and obviously there are places in Europe where that's happening as well. Exactly. So again, I think as we are raising kids and grandkids, I think part of the ongoing process of helping them become media literate is, okay, how do we think critically about this? How do we think beyond an emotional knee jerk response. And you may get pushback on that. My oldest is said, look, you don't understand. And the problem is when we old folks try to say, actually, we do understand, that argument is often rejected emotionally too. But but anyway, you know, speaking of old folks and new folks and old things and new things, we do have a movie out.

1:49:25 The New. Girl is out this week and it stars Millie Adcock. She is an Australian actress and she was in one of the Game of I think she was in Game of Thrones it's a mixed bag. You know, there's some redemptive stuff here, but she doesn't play a nice, squeaky clean version of Superhero, which is what we have seen in the past. She plays a drunken, cynical, hard living version who seeks out planets with a red son because the red Sun enables her to be normal. It takes her powers away and she can get drunk and drown her drown her miseries, and the miseries that she's drowning have to do with her planet being destroyed, so there is something there that's a little bit sympathetic. And she meets a teen girl who is seeking revenge for her family being killed, and they kind of team up, and she's like, yeah, you know, maybe the revenge thing not the best. Her dog gets poisoned. You know, super things happened, lots of combat, lots of profanity, a fairly cynical outlook that sort of lurches towards some redemptive things in the end.
