Are you ready?

2
00:00:01.879 --> 00:00:05.919
Yeah, okay, us do an Ill Martinez Live a program

3
00:00:06.040 --> 00:00:10.439
about current events, our culture, our values, our politics, and

4
00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:11.160
our future.

5
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:13.880
And now Bill Martinez.

6
00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:16.719
Hey, good morning, six minutes after the top of the hour.

7
00:00:16.839 --> 00:00:19.679
Right now, Bill Martinez here with Kennon Speedback, the founder

8
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:23.679
and chairman of the SMI Group, LLC and international consulting

9
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:26.320
firm and investment bank. Kennon, good morning to you.

10
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.120
How are you, good morning? Thanks for having me back.

11
00:00:29.359 --> 00:00:31.000
Well, always good to have you back. A couple of

12
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:34.880
things just in the news, Lindsay Graham's sudden passing. I

13
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:39.200
mean here we were thinking that, you know, Mitch McConnell possibly,

14
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:42.039
and then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, Lindsey

15
00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:45.840
Graham is out. And of course you know here he

16
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:48.920
was a champion for Donald Trump. We don't we don't

17
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:51.079
need to lose any more, you know, people that are

18
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:55.759
supporting the MAGA agenda and things that we've been needing

19
00:00:55.799 --> 00:00:59.359
to get past, like you know, like the Save Act.

20
00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:07.400
Lindsay's passing is really very bad. I met him several times.

21
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:12.000
He was such a gentleman. He was the funniest person,

22
00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:16.079
the funniest senator certainly that I've ever met, and there

23
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:19.439
are so many things that he was in the center of.

24
00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:23.280
He was a terrific Trump supporter, but you know, he

25
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.799
also sometimes got Trump a little exasperated in his strong

26
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:31.200
support for Israel and Ukraine and even NATO. He was

27
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.959
a NATO supporter. And what people don't realize about Lindsay

28
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.079
is that in the Gang of Fourteen, in the Gang

29
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:41.439
of Eight, in the Gang of Ten, he was in

30
00:01:41.480 --> 00:01:45.680
the center of all sorts of bipartisan efforts to cross

31
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:50.120
over on the divide. He was a terrific, terrific person

32
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.120
and a fantastic senator.

33
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:56.400
Right, of course, we're still waiting to see who the

34
00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:01.120
governor is going to appoint because you know, I don't

35
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:04.519
think there'll be a special election until the normal election

36
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:08.599
because we need somebody they're representing South Carolina in the meantime.

37
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:12.639
Right, Yeah, he's going to appoint someone today. Some people

38
00:02:12.680 --> 00:02:18.680
think that maybe Lindsay's sister Darlene, which makes some sense,

39
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.759
because we can't afford to have any member of the

40
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:25.199
House leave the House to become the interim senator. If

41
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.560
the interim senator is not a so called caretaker, meaning

42
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:33.000
someone who's not intending to run, that person gets an advantage.

43
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:36.159
I think a lot of people might be quite happy

44
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:40.039
to see Lindsay's sister appointed for this six month period.

45
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:45.240
I think that makes sense because it preserves the space

46
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:50.039
and doesn't necessarily threaten what we've already got, which is

47
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.159
we're basically on thin ice a little bit anyway right

48
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:56.039
now going into these final what have we got about

49
00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:58.800
maybe twenty days left of the Senate being able to

50
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:01.319
meet before before the midterms.

51
00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:05.039
Yeah, it's critical that we have a Republican vote in there,

52
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:07.680
and we don't want a Republican vote from someone who's

53
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:14.319
not knowledgeable and intelligent. And Lindsay's sister has been involved

54
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:18.199
with his campaigns and been involved in various things he's done.

55
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:20.759
I don't know that you would be qualified to be

56
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:25.080
the permanent senator from South Carolina, but she certainly qualified

57
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.400
to handle the job for the remaining period. And there's

58
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:33.560
ample precedent for appointing the spouse of a congress person

59
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:35.039
or senator who passes away.

60
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:37.960
Well, and it's not like the staff is gone, and

61
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.400
the staff has all the background and all the information,

62
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:42.000
so that's still in play, right.

63
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:45.199
Yeah, again, And I don't know that the government is

64
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:47.680
going to appoint Darlene. But one of the benefits is

65
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:51.120
she doesn't have her own staff. She'll work with Lindsay's staff.

66
00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:53.919
It will enhance the transition. If you were to appoint

67
00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.199
a congress person, that congress person has his or her staff.

68
00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:01.560
So exactly to wait a little bit later today to

69
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.120
see what happens, and maybe it won't be Darlene, but

70
00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:07.639
if it is, I think that'll be a good choice.

71
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:11.759
And there are other good choices too. What's important is

72
00:04:11.879 --> 00:04:15.000
the primary that will take place in a few weeks

73
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:20.279
to find Lindsey's successor as the permanent Republican nominee, and

74
00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:23.040
it will be very important that that person be elected.

75
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:26.839
How's her How politically savvy is she?

76
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:31.959
I don't know how savvy she is, but she's knowledgeable.

77
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:37.680
She's been around Lindsay and his campaign. She's been a

78
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.120
bit of an advisor. So I'm going to stay with

79
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.360
knowledgeable and not go all the way up to savvy.

80
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:47.319
Right, Okay, very good. I want to talk birthright citizenship

81
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:51.839
confusion still remains after you know, the decision by the

82
00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:54.920
Supreme Court. What say you?

83
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:56.240
All?

84
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.879
Right? So I had an article today in Real Clear Politics,

85
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.399
and what I said there is exactly what I believe,

86
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:06.639
that the Constitution of the United States does not prohibit

87
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:12.839
barring from birthright citizenship the children of illegal immigrants or

88
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:16.959
the children of people here temporarily. The people here temporarily

89
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:20.839
may well be here legally, they could be tourists. The

90
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:26.000
Supreme Court instead held that, based on a four hundred

91
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:31.839
and eighteen year old British case about feudal servitude, and

92
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.639
based on an eighteen ninety eight case which is fairly

93
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:40.160
well known Wong Kim ark about legal the children of

94
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:45.079
legal immigrants, that the only exceptions that Congress was allowed

95
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:52.439
to implement were exceptions for children of diplomats, invaders, and

96
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:56.959
children born on boats. That was a bizarre one, and

97
00:05:57.000 --> 00:05:59.160
that there are no other exceptions. There can be no

98
00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:04.399
other exception, and based on that that the prohibition of

99
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:09.199
birthright citizenship for illegal immigrant children or temporary visitor children

100
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:14.319
is unconstitutional. It is a crazy and bizarre decision. The

101
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:20.600
decision on temporary visitors only got five justices. The decision

102
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:26.079
on illegal immigrant children got six justices. And they're thinking

103
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:29.600
couldn't have been more wrong because this case on which

104
00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:35.199
they relied said over and over again that its decision

105
00:06:35.360 --> 00:06:39.600
was premised on the children here born here being the

106
00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:45.160
children of legal foreign immigrants and being domiciled in the US,

107
00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:48.279
which tourists are not. It's a bizarre decision.

108
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.920
Well, the other thing is, the big question was under

109
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:55.920
the jurisdiction thereof right, Well, if you're a citizen of

110
00:06:55.959 --> 00:07:00.399
another country just because you're born here, does that, you know,

111
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:04.959
take the jurisdiction issue out of play. Aren't they still

112
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:07.439
under the jurisdiction of their home country?

113
00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:09.279
All right?

114
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:11.600
Yes? So now what you're going back to, which is

115
00:07:11.600 --> 00:07:14.000
the way the Supreme Court really should have listened or

116
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:17.439
heard this case, was to say that the Supreme Court

117
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:20.079
precedents that it cited, by the way, one of which

118
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:24.639
the slaughter House cases decided just five years after the

119
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:30.560
fourteenth Amendment, also said that children of taurusts could not

120
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:35.920
be US citizens. I mean, there's a difference between illegal

121
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:40.720
immigrant children and tourist children, and the outcome doesn't have

122
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:43.600
to be the same for both. So what you've said is,

123
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.079
all right, let's assume that none of these precedents are

124
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.199
on point, none of these presidents are on point. So

125
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:51.959
let's go back and figure this out from the start.

126
00:07:52.040 --> 00:07:54.319
The way the Court should have done it if it

127
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:57.800
even had to go back and look at the Constitution,

128
00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:02.160
which really it did not because of some federal statutes

129
00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.199
that are on point. But if we go back and

130
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:07.439
look at the Constitution, I think the answer is we

131
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.040
don't know. That there was no discussion of what that

132
00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:15.079
phrase meant at that time, that it was not a

133
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:19.439
well drafted phrase, and that we could debate from now

134
00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:22.959
until the cows come home. Did it mean the sole

135
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:26.839
jurisdiction of the US. Did it mean the primary jurisdiction

136
00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:30.639
of the US. Did it mean a little team see

137
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:34.600
little bit the jurisdiction of the US. And so I'm

138
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:38.159
going to say the fairest answer is we don't know,

139
00:08:38.279 --> 00:08:41.240
which means that probably the best outcome would have been

140
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:46.240
to say, we're going to allow Congress to decide which

141
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:51.080
one of the other sections of the Fourteenth Amendment says

142
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:56.320
that Congress ought to, through its legislation, decide on how

143
00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:00.519
to implement the fourteenth Amendment. And that's what the Supreme

144
00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:01.759
Court should have held.

145
00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:07.279

the SMI Grobelt LCA and international consulting firm and investment bank.

228
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:43.320
You know, I agree one hundred percent with what you're

229
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.279
saying here. And then this has been the problem with

230
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:50.159
Congress is that, and especially in light of this current administration,

231
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:53.600
it's like Trump is with a fire hose of things

232
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:57.159
just flashing at them to say, take care of this

233
00:13:57.240 --> 00:14:00.440
business when we've been dealing with this for decades, resolve

234
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:03.919
these issues, and Congress is saying, well, you know, but

235
00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:06.039
I have to I have to take a vacation, I

236
00:14:06.039 --> 00:14:07.039
have to go on break.

237
00:14:08.279 --> 00:14:11.000
Right. You know, there is one thing that Justice Kavanaugh

238
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:15.000
was right about. In nineteen forty, Congress passed an immigration Act,

239
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:18.200
and in nineteen fifty two they passed another immigration act.

240
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:22.759
At the time, there is in the congressional record indication

241
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:25.480
that they understood that they were going to make it

242
00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:30.279
legal for the children of illegal immigrants to have birthright citizenship,

243
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:34.399
not because they had to, but because they were choosing

244
00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:36.320
to do that, and they had the right to choose

245
00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:39.080
to do that under this section of the fourteenth Amendment.

246
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:41.840
So I don't think Donald Trump had the right to

247
00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:48.000
issue an executive order undoing a congressional decision. But Congress

248
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:52.159
did not make a decision about the children of tourists,

249
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.279
transient people who are coming in and going out of

250
00:14:55.320 --> 00:14:58.960
the country. It was just never something they considered. And

251
00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:03.200
that's where I think the Supreme Court was wrong in

252
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:07.440
holding that because of Wang Kimar and the exceptions, it

253
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.279
enumerated that there was no exception for the children of

254
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:15.799
transient visitors, and that Congress couldn't even make that an exception.

255
00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:20.080
I just think this was a wild Supreme Court decision

256
00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:24.639
that was far beyond what they even had to consider

257
00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:28.519
to get to the political outcome they wanted, which was

258
00:15:28.679 --> 00:15:32.120
primarily to allow the children of illegal immigrants to have

259
00:15:32.159 --> 00:15:36.480
birthright citizenship. The nineteen fifty two statute provides for that,

260
00:15:36.519 --> 00:15:37.759
and that's all they had to say.

261
00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:41.240
Yeah, but you know the fact that Congress chose not

262
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:42.919
to act, they acted.

263
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:47.759
They did act in nineteen forty nineteen fifty two on

264
00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:51.440
the children of illegal immigrants. They could act again today,

265
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.360
but the Supreme Court has said they cannot act to

266
00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.720
make it illegal to have birthright citizenship for children of

267
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:05.480
the legal immigrants because the Constitution requires it. Why because

268
00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:08.519
of this four hundred and eighteen year old British decision

269
00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:14.879
on feudalism, which you know, the Declaration of Independence specifically

270
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:19.440
said we were replacing that doctrine with the doctrine of

271
00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:25.399
the people determining how we were governed. And Congress on

272
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:32.240
more than one occasion rejected injecting feudalism into citizenship, including

273
00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:36.120
in a statute of Congress packt the past the very

274
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:42.639
year the fourteenth Amendment was ratified. So, you know, I

275
00:16:42.679 --> 00:16:46.200
love a lot of these conservative jurists, but some of

276
00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:50.159
the conservative jurists are sometimes wrong. They're sometimes political, just

277
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:53.159
as the liberal jurists can be political. And they got

278
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:54.120
it wrong here.

279
00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:57.279
Right, well, you know, to me at a time when

280
00:16:57.600 --> 00:16:59.879
and I guess maybe the judges aren't supposed to look

281
00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:03.399
at it this way, but it's interesting because in other

282
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:09.359
decisions they seem to consider what's happening culturally, and their

283
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:13.440
you know, pronouncements will reflect that. In this case, here

284
00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:17.160
we are we're overwhelmed with anywhere from fifteen to twenty

285
00:17:17.279 --> 00:17:23.640
million illegal immigrants in our country. Threats abound, we are

286
00:17:23.759 --> 00:17:26.799
at war with a country that has said very clearly

287
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:31.960
that we're coming after President Trump. We want to assassinate him,

288
00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:35.720
we want to do away with Israel. We want America

289
00:17:35.759 --> 00:17:40.079
to be done away with. So with all these dangers

290
00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:46.559
that are clear and imminent, you know, for the you know,

291
00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:50.400
for the Supreme Court to you know, go back four

292
00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:53.960
hundred years and lean on that, it's like, wait a minute,

293
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:58.440
but we're here today dealing with this clear and present danger,

294
00:17:58.880 --> 00:18:02.920
and the threats are on our US constitution and our homeland.

295
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:07.400
You know, could you could you have made a decision,

296
00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:12.559
you know, in favor of national security and cut it

297
00:18:12.599 --> 00:18:15.680
that way as opposed to the manner in which they did,

298
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.839
because what they were leaving it up to now, Ken

299
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:23.319
and I believe is that we're going to need an amendment.

300
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:26.359
And an amendment is going to happen overnight. This is

301
00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:29.640
going to take decades to resolve. And then how many

302
00:18:29.640 --> 00:18:33.240
more you know birthright citizens. Are we going to have

303
00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:41.359
the idea of birthright tourism? How that continues to evolve

304
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:44.480
and you know, this cottage industry, it's going to become

305
00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:46.480
more than a cottage industry.

306
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:50.839
Yeah, I don't. I don't want the Supreme Court to

307
00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:54.319
rule based on what they think is a cultural imperative.

308
00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.640
That's not ruling on the law. That's what the liberal justices.

309
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:00.839
Do they pass for ov Wade because they thought women

310
00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:03.279
needed the right to abortion. They paid all these things.

311
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:05.000
So no, I don't want the Court to do that.

312
00:19:05.559 --> 00:19:07.920
But what I also don't want the Court to do,

313
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:11.440
which I think they did here, was come to a

314
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:18.480
conclusion based on what the majority of the liberal elite

315
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:24.720
academics wanted and have thought is the law. Because it is.

316
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:32.240
It's just not ambiguous that Wang Kim arc wasn't precedent

317
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:37.400
for this decision, because it expressly stated it wasn't precedent

318
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:41.039
for either of the two issues this court was considering,

319
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:50.000
and those were illegal immigrants and tourists. Though, as I've said,

320
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:53.519
I do think the Supreme Court was right in throwing

321
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:59.279
out Trump's executive order with respect to illegal immigrants because

322
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:04.079
Congress passed a statute and they have to respect the statute.

323
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:07.960
It's in't going beyond that statute. Justice Cavanaugh had a

324
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:12.000
theory that it's a little too complicated, I think to

325
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.119
get into right now, but he had a theory as

326
00:20:14.119 --> 00:20:18.039
to why the nineteen forty nineteen fifty two law in

327
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:23.440
effect also said that there would be birthright citizenship for

328
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:26.480
the children of tourists. I think he was wrong, but

329
00:20:26.599 --> 00:20:30.359
he at least said that but for that statute or

330
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:36.400
those statutes, Congress could pass a law making birthright citizenship

331
00:20:36.519 --> 00:20:40.000
for tourists illegal. But he's only one vote. There were

332
00:20:40.079 --> 00:20:46.480
still five votes that said the fourteenth Amendment prohibits barring

333
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:51.519
birthright citizenship for the children of tourists. Those five justices,

334
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:54.920
well three of them, were going off on this tangent

335
00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:59.640
about black rights and the dread Scott decision and the

336
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.640
knee need for white people to respect blacks. Look, this

337
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:06.720
decision has nothing to do with white people or black people,

338
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:10.920
or gray people or Asian people. This decision has to

339
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.359
do with immigrants. Immigrants could come from Europe, they could

340
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:20.359
come from any place. And and I resent being accused

341
00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:24.400
as I was by some of the liberal justices and

342
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:28.720
their descents, particularly Katanji Brown. I resent being accused of

343
00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:32.559
being a racist because I don't want birthright citizenship for

344
00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:37.000
illegal aliens and tourists. That has nothing to do with

345
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:41.720
race nationality. It has to do with American citizenship being

346
00:21:42.160 --> 00:21:45.319
an honor, something to be valued, and something for the

347
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:49.920
people who rightly legally live in the United States.

348
00:21:50.359 --> 00:21:54.359
Exactly. I think Katanji Brown Jackson with all due respect,

349
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:57.720
was bringing up something that was already settled, I believe

350
00:21:58.119 --> 00:22:02.400
clearly by the Supreme Court basically said you know this,

351
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:06.319
this racial divide and this thing that we've been dealing

352
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:10.559
with for eight decades is over. And but she can't

353
00:22:10.640 --> 00:22:13.799
let it go like some because they're just it's just

354
00:22:13.839 --> 00:22:16.480
part of their doctrine. It's it's almost like they have

355
00:22:16.559 --> 00:22:22.559
PTSD of racial animists and it's like they can't even

356
00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:24.240
get beyond it.

357
00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:27.240
Listen, I'm going to be direct. She's a racist. Hendrick

358
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:32.279
Brown is an absolute racist. She's a racist pervades her decisions,

359
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:38.680
her attacks on Justice Thomas. She's effectively in some of

360
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:44.960
her decisions called him an Uncle Tom. Her judicial temperament,

361
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:49.960
it's just not there. Her decisions are not based on

362
00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:54.720
the law. She has a really a single focus, and

363
00:22:55.160 --> 00:23:00.359
that's this racist view about white people. And she's not

364
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:04.000
going to get over it. And it's a very unfortunate

365
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:06.880
aspect of her judicial temperament.

366
00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:08.240
Is she impeachable.

367
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:11.200
She's not going to be impeached. She's not going to

368
00:23:11.200 --> 00:23:14.599
be impeached for this. You know, there are some decisions

369
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:17.160
that she hears that have nothing to do with race,

370
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:20.640
where she may be liberal, but her decision making process

371
00:23:20.640 --> 00:23:21.519
there is just fine.

372
00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:22.200
Right.

373
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:24.720
But she's not going to be in peach. She's going

374
00:23:24.799 --> 00:23:26.920
to be on the bench for a very long time

375
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:29.640
making a lot of very bad decisions.

376
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:33.359
We just hope that she doesn't find a mate where there's,

377
00:23:33.599 --> 00:23:38.160
you know, another another like minded justice on the court.

378
00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.960
I think that could be. It could be debilitating in

379
00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:43.880
so many ways. We have to leave it there. Kennon'

380
00:23:43.880 --> 00:23:46.839
speedback is always appreciate. The Insight founder chairman of the

381
00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:51.880
SMI Group LLC. You need to read his article. Tell

382
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:53.720
them how they can link up with that, Kennon.

383
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:57.279
They can link up to it, but just googling my name.

384
00:23:57.599 --> 00:24:02.160
The article is a birth right citizenship. It was real

385
00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:04.200
care of politics. But the best way just google my

386
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:05.519
name and the article will come up.

387
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:10.880
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

388
00:24:11.079 --> 00:24:14.680
You're spending more, you are making the same or less money.

389
00:24:15.079 --> 00:24:16.039
So what do you do?

390
00:24:16.519 --> 00:24:18.720
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

391
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.599
It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what

392
00:24:23.119 --> 00:24:25.279
if you rack up too much credit card debt, like

393

across the country on the East coast to the other

460
00:28:19.119 --> 00:28:24.160
side of the of the USA to landmark legals. Mike O'Neill, Hey, Mike,

461
00:28:24.440 --> 00:28:25.279
Aloha to you and my.

462
00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:27.480
Friend Aloha Bill. I hope you're having a nice time

463
00:28:27.519 --> 00:28:29.000
in our beautiful state of Hawaii.

464
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:33.480
It's it is. It's a beautiful state, and the people

465
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:36.359
here beautiful, and it's just it's just been a great trip,

466
00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:39.200
especially being with the kids and grandkids in that so

467
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:41.279
you know, we're just having a great time. It's been

468
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:43.440
a while since we've had a chance to be with him,

469
00:28:43.480 --> 00:28:46.119
so we're making the most of it. Well, let's talk

470
00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:49.880
Lindsey Graham. I mean, the shock of shocks over the weekend,

471
00:28:50.279 --> 00:28:53.079
and I'm still still trying to get my brain around

472
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:53.400
at Mike.

473
00:28:54.119 --> 00:28:56.559
Yeah, certainly, I think it was. It's one of those

474
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.200
sudden things. I mean, as I understand it, what an

475
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:01.960
aortic to section or something, you know, one of those

476
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:04.319
one of those things that they're just widow maker things

477
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:07.279
that you can't you can't come back from, very very

478
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:10.920
high high degree of of of critical care. Really a

479
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:13.000
sad moment, and this is this is a I think

480
00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:15.319
we can remember Lindsay Graham for a couple of things.

481
00:29:15.359 --> 00:29:17.559
I mean, he was, first of all, he was a

482
00:29:17.640 --> 00:29:20.480
really stalwart in the United States Senate. And he was

483
00:29:20.519 --> 00:29:24.279
an individual who was obviously pro national defense, pro liberty,

484
00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:28.839
somebody who identified hotspots in the in the world, Ukraine,

485
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:34.160
North Korea, China, Taiwan, obviously the Middle East, Iraq, Iran,

486
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:37.200
all of all all of those areas. So he's clearly

487
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:43.319
a pro national security individual, very very stalwart, bastion and

488
00:29:43.359 --> 00:29:45.920
fighter for liberty across not only in the United States,

489
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:49.519
but of course across the globe. Personally, my from from

490
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:52.079
my bellywick in my my area that I focus on,

491
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:55.000
I remember Lindsay Graham for his his acts and his

492
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:59.119
work on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the Senate Judiciary Committee,

493
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:01.240
for all those who don't know, really rises always because

494
00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:04.480
it's always workings. It's a standing committee in the United

495
00:30:04.480 --> 00:30:07.400
States Senate, and their job is to advise and consent,

496
00:30:07.720 --> 00:30:11.119
provide the initial advice and consent role for nominations to

497
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:13.880
the federal bench, the district courts, the circuit courts, and

498
00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:16.039
of course the United States Supreme Court. But really when

499
00:30:16.039 --> 00:30:19.680
they the profile of the Senate Judiciary Committee rises nationally

500
00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:24.920
when they have those hearings regarding Supreme Court nominees and

501
00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:28.240
the memories I take from Senator Graham, of course, I

502
00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.799
think his seminal moment in the United States Senate, and

503
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:33.400
it is really I think, as time continues to march on,

504
00:30:33.480 --> 00:30:36.119
his moment in history will be in that moment during

505
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:38.960
the Brett Kavanaugh hearing that we can recall, and I

506
00:30:39.039 --> 00:30:41.680
encourage all of your listeners and everybody to google Google

507
00:30:41.720 --> 00:30:43.920
that moment if you can see the video of Lindsey

508
00:30:43.920 --> 00:30:47.400
Graham during during the moment where Brett Kavanaugh had been

509
00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:49.799
I think it was day three of the Kavanaugh hearings

510
00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:52.000
when he was nominated for the Supreme Court as an

511
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:55.440
Associate Justice for the Supreme Court, and the left and

512
00:30:55.480 --> 00:30:59.359
the Democrats on the committee had dragged out these terrible

513
00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:03.680
allegations and produced a witness with these this really specious

514
00:31:04.119 --> 00:31:07.599
lots of holes in her story about this alleged improprieties

515
00:31:07.640 --> 00:31:11.039
that Justice judged that that Kavanaugh had engaged in. And

516
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:14.319
it really kind of knocked the Republicans for a loop,

517
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:17.440
because up until that point it had been a fairly

518
00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:19.599
pro former kind of hearing, right, you know, there were

519
00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.279
a lot of character witnesses, and the record of justice

520
00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:25.839
of Judge Kavanaugh was was was really strong. He'd served

521
00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:27.400
at the d C. Circuit Court of Appeals with a

522
00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:30.039
lot of distinction. He was a distinguished attorney. He had

523
00:31:30.119 --> 00:31:32.960
really a really flawless kind of record. But they pulled

524
00:31:32.960 --> 00:31:36.599
out this from left field, these allegations from decades and

525
00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:40.759
decades prior, and it really kind of got the everything

526
00:31:40.759 --> 00:31:41.559
went off the rails.

527
00:31:41.640 --> 00:31:41.799
Right.

528
00:31:41.839 --> 00:31:45.119
We had the cod pink people storming in the left

529
00:31:45.119 --> 00:31:47.880
that smelled blood. They'd thrown the Republicans for a loop.

530
00:31:47.920 --> 00:31:49.880
They were The Republicans were kind of shell shocked, if

531
00:31:49.920 --> 00:31:51.279
you remember the hearing, looking.

532
00:31:51.079 --> 00:31:53.880
At them absolute bench, they were shell shocked.

533
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:58.200
Upstood Lindsay, I don't say stood well through all this

534
00:31:58.279 --> 00:32:02.039
cacophony and all of this and yelly and all these allegations,

535
00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:04.640
and the Republicans almost frozen in fear. It looked really

536
00:32:05.079 --> 00:32:07.480
the nomination was on the precipice. And I think if

537
00:32:07.480 --> 00:32:09.920
they've been able to derail this nomination, I think that

538
00:32:09.960 --> 00:32:12.440
they would have been able to prevent I think that

539
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:15.720
was the I'm trying to decide who was what seed

540
00:32:15.720 --> 00:32:17.599
it was occupying, but it really would have, I think

541
00:32:17.680 --> 00:32:21.279
seminarly affected the contours of the court. Upstood, Lindsay Graham,

542
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:23.519
I'll give you a second if you want to weigh

543
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:23.839
it on this.

544
00:32:24.160 --> 00:32:26.079
No, no, that's why. Yeah, you're laying it out perfect.

545
00:32:26.160 --> 00:32:30.240
Ye okay. So so at this moment, Lindsay Graham said

546
00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:35.559
enough is enough, and he gave this straight from the speech,

547
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:39.200
from the heart speech. And it wasn't it wasn't prepared.

548
00:32:39.279 --> 00:32:40.799
And this is what's amazing about it. It's one of

549
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:44.079
those unscripted moments in our history. And you so rarely

550
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:48.200
see these, right where the senator so oftentimes everything's preordained,

551
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.160
we have the script written. It's that eight et cetera,

552
00:32:50.200 --> 00:32:53.839
et cetera. Everything comes along, it's follows a path. But

553
00:32:54.160 --> 00:32:58.960
Lindsey Graham, straight out from a heart, admonished his Senate colleagues,

554
00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:01.200
and it's and he started with.

555
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:05.599
This, you know, the democrat the Democrats, Senate colleague, sorry, yeah,

556
00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:06.000
excuse me.

557
00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:07.960
The Democrats on the on the committee obviously, and let

558
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:10.359
me let me talk. Let me briefly say who these

559
00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:13.880
people are. These the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee.

560
00:33:13.920 --> 00:33:16.480
Are the left of the left on the Senate, we

561
00:33:16.839 --> 00:33:18.960
really have you have your radical Marxists in the House

562
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:21.920
of Representatives, but you do have some pretty leftist senators

563
00:33:21.920 --> 00:33:24.400
as well. And this was horono, by the way, where

564
00:33:24.440 --> 00:33:28.400
you are yes, right, who is really the poor? Who

565
00:33:28.480 --> 00:33:31.160
is a really who's as bad as leftist as you get?

566
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:34.559
And then you had Blumenthal a white House. Kamala Harris

567
00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:36.240
was on the committee at that point too, because this

568
00:33:36.319 --> 00:33:38.200
is before she was the vice president, she was a senator.

569
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.039
And so you had some really left wing senators and

570
00:33:41.160 --> 00:33:44.640
he admonished them. And Graham had some bona fides and

571
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:48.799
some gravitas with this because he had previously voted for

572
00:33:49.039 --> 00:33:51.799
Kegan and Soda my or and so he's he was

573
00:33:51.839 --> 00:33:54.920
the guy who was known as the congenial you know,

574
00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:57.559
genial guy who reached across the aisle, was willing to

575
00:33:57.559 --> 00:33:59.920
put politics aside and look at like these justices and

576
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:01.920
these judges. You came befo him and said, Okay, I

577
00:34:01.920 --> 00:34:04.119
don't care if you're a Democrat or Republican. I want

578
00:34:04.119 --> 00:34:07.000
to look at your qualifications to serve as a judge

579
00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:07.759
or justice.

580
00:34:07.960 --> 00:34:08.840
Right, So he.

581
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:12.719
Recognized aptly like Justice Kagan, who was incredibly competent and incredible,

582
00:34:12.679 --> 00:34:15.159
and she continues to be competent this day, qualified to

583
00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:17.039
see if serve on the Supreme Court. And of course

584
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:19.599
he voted for her. So he had some bona fides

585
00:34:19.639 --> 00:34:23.000
here and some credibility with this, and he he admonished them,

586
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:26.519
and he gave this humdinger of a speech, and it

587
00:34:26.599 --> 00:34:29.159
was it was straight from the heart. And I remember

588
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:31.840
looking at it that day and I said to myself,

589
00:34:32.079 --> 00:34:34.199
this is the day that he saved the Republic. And

590
00:34:34.239 --> 00:34:36.159
I mean that from the heart. I said, Lindsay Graham

591
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:39.360
just saved the Republic because he was able to salvage.

592
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:42.440
And I don't think but for that speech, I really,

593
00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:44.039
you know, it's hard to get down and involved in

594
00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:46.639
these counterfactuals, but but for that speech, I think that

595
00:34:46.920 --> 00:34:48.760
the nomination was going to go off the rails and

596
00:34:48.760 --> 00:34:50.039
he wasn't going to suit. You know, there was some

597
00:34:50.079 --> 00:34:54.119
wavering right Senator Blake from Oklahoma, There was some Arizona.

598
00:34:54.159 --> 00:34:58.639
He was not Oklahoma, well, Blake from Arizona. I think

599
00:34:58.880 --> 00:35:01.719
he was wavering. The was some like he'd been tornered

600
00:35:01.760 --> 00:35:03.960
in a in a in an elevator. And so there

601
00:35:03.960 --> 00:35:05.960
were some Republicans that were wavering on this. So I

602
00:35:05.960 --> 00:35:09.400
think but for graham speech, we wouldn't have Justice Kavanaugh

603
00:35:09.440 --> 00:35:12.239
on the bench right now. An amazing, amazing moment in

604
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:15.880
American history. I encourage everybody to watch it. I think

605
00:35:15.920 --> 00:35:17.760
that's really what he's going to go down for, is

606
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:20.639
that moment when he's when he metaphorically he didn't physically

607
00:35:20.639 --> 00:35:22.719
stand up. He was sitting there, but he stood up

608
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:25.000
and he gave this common sense, straight from the heart,

609
00:35:25.239 --> 00:35:28.639
admonishment to his colleagues that hey, we're better than this,

610
00:35:29.519 --> 00:35:31.599
we need to be about this. These sorts of these

611
00:35:31.599 --> 00:35:33.480
sorts of shenanigans are not appropriate.

612
00:35:33.559 --> 00:35:33.639
This.

613
00:35:33.800 --> 00:35:35.239
I can't do it justice. I don't want people to

614
00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:36.840
look at it and hear the sound, right, But what

615
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:39.199
he did was incredible, and I think he should be

616
00:35:39.239 --> 00:35:41.639
noted for that and really lauded for that. And remember

617
00:35:41.719 --> 00:35:42.599
for that moment.

618
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:46.039
Well, the closing line there, as you recall, was, uh

619
00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:52.000
was about power. He says, you you were so interested

620
00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:56.280
in power and control. I hope to god you don't

621
00:35:56.400 --> 00:36:00.880
get it right, and you're exactly right. Mind what it did,

622
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:04.599
it coalesced, It brought the It brought the Republican Party

623
00:36:05.159 --> 00:36:08.039
back on their You know, back on their toes to

624
00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:12.039
get into a fighting stance because they were just overwhelmed.

625
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:14.519
I mean, you know Macy Herono, Oh you have to

626
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:16.719
hear her, and you men, you got to shut up

627
00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:21.480
and sit down and you know, invalidate you know, everybody

628
00:36:21.599 --> 00:36:23.960
on this committee all of a sudden they had no

629
00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:27.039
say whatsoever. And the media was louding her and that,

630
00:36:27.199 --> 00:36:30.639
and and of course, interestingly enough, in the ensuing years,

631
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:33.679
including here recently, where's Macy Herono?

632
00:36:35.880 --> 00:36:36.800
She still senator?

633
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:40.360
Well yeah, but but I mean she's not talking about

634
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:42.800
you know, the main Canada. Of course he's out now,

635
00:36:42.920 --> 00:36:45.639
but but still where was she during this period of time?

636
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:51.280
And and and clearly and she was really an embarrassment,

637
00:36:51.360 --> 00:36:53.519
her and the others because you could see that they

638
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:55.880
didn't do any of their homework. This was done by staff,

639
00:36:56.199 --> 00:37:00.079
and they were echoing staff talking points and it was

640
00:37:00.239 --> 00:37:03.280
it was an embarrassment on so many, so many levels.

641
00:37:03.760 --> 00:37:03.880
Uh.

642
00:37:04.039 --> 00:37:07.280
But the critical issue that Lindsey Graham called him on

643
00:37:07.760 --> 00:37:10.599
was that their lust for power they had, they had

644
00:37:11.000 --> 00:37:12.239
they had crossed the rubicon.

645
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:15.119
Yeah, and and to the merits of it, I mean

646
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:17.320
it was he and he puted this out and in

647
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:20.519
his in his speech. It was short and punchy, right,

648
00:37:20.559 --> 00:37:22.360
it was some of the same. These great moments are

649
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:24.960
just it's just a moment. It's just that it's only

650
00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:30.440
three or four minutes long. And he said this, Justice Cavlar,

651
00:37:30.519 --> 00:37:34.960
Judge Kavanaugh, Brett Kavanaugh has has worked with women his

652
00:37:35.199 --> 00:37:38.559
entire career, and he cited the ABA his character and

653
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:43.119
fitness report above. Reproach everything and the whole. Anybody with

654
00:37:43.199 --> 00:37:46.039
common sense who was watching the hearings was screaming for

655
00:37:46.079 --> 00:37:48.960
that moment, and he really gave voice to the people

656
00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:51.920
who were screaming at them. Hey, guys, stand up and

657
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:55.159
do what's right. And he and he, he stepped into that.

658
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:57.320
He sees the moment and he did it. I like

659
00:37:57.320 --> 00:37:58.679
to say he's touched by the Holy Spirit.

660
00:37:58.719 --> 00:37:58.880
You know.

661
00:37:58.920 --> 00:38:00.679
I think that you know something touched by God.

662
00:38:00.679 --> 00:38:03.800
There's something you know. The truth had to come out. Yeah,

663
00:38:03.800 --> 00:38:05.159

00:42:09.039 --> 00:42:11.159
Hey, we're back with you, Bill Martinez here with Mike

742
00:42:11.199 --> 00:42:15.159
O'Neil from Landmark Legal, and we're wrapping up the conversation

743
00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:19.159
with Lindsay Graham and his seminal moment there during the

744
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:24.159
Brett Kavanaugh hearings. And again it was a rallying moment,

745
00:42:24.239 --> 00:42:26.960
a centering moment. And this is the thing about the truth.

746
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:29.440
You know, when things go off the rails, the truth

747
00:42:29.519 --> 00:42:31.800
is so powerful, and it is one of those things

748
00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:33.960
that you say, whether it's the Holy Spirit there, you know,

749
00:42:34.079 --> 00:42:38.320
God himself that enters into the chaos, because that's what happens.

750
00:42:38.599 --> 00:42:41.719
The chaos needed to be settled. And I'm like you,

751
00:42:41.800 --> 00:42:44.440
I do give the Holy Spirit credit because the Spirit

752
00:42:44.480 --> 00:42:47.880
of God is the one that combats chaos, even from

753
00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:49.880
day one when you open up the Book of Genesis,

754
00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:52.199
you know it was the spirit of God that was

755
00:42:52.360 --> 00:42:56.679
hovering over the darkness and over the chaos of God's

756
00:42:56.719 --> 00:43:00.159
creation at that point in time, and so here it

757
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:04.760
is as crazy as it was. And yes, I know

758
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:07.519
that sounds dramatic in some sense to say that Lindsey

759
00:43:07.559 --> 00:43:10.599
Graham saved the republic. And there have been seminal moments

760
00:43:10.639 --> 00:43:13.559
throughout our history where there have been speeches that has

761
00:43:13.599 --> 00:43:18.000
coalesced and saved the republic, And no doubt, Lindsey Graham's

762
00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:22.119
moment needs to be accounted for as you you know,

763
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:25.239
remember some of these moments that saved our democracy.

764
00:43:26.280 --> 00:43:28.480
Yeah, it was. It was just one of those times

765
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:31.719
when it just called out for a voice of clarity

766
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:34.320
in the in the chaos, and it was it was

767
00:43:34.360 --> 00:43:38.079
he cut through it all and it just and I

768
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:40.400
thought to myself, well I didn't I didn't know he

769
00:43:40.440 --> 00:43:41.880
had it in him at that time. I was like,

770
00:43:41.920 --> 00:43:45.960
you know, he's he was again. He he has incredible substance.

771
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:47.679
He was well known, but to that point, you know,

772
00:43:47.679 --> 00:43:50.719
he was. He was. He's obviously a pro defense, but

773
00:43:50.800 --> 00:43:54.239
he was. He was always with Lieberman and McCain.

774
00:43:54.519 --> 00:43:54.760
He was.

775
00:43:55.239 --> 00:43:58.559
He was a very genial guy, South Carolinian, you know,

776
00:43:58.639 --> 00:43:59.800
work with people.

777
00:43:59.760 --> 00:44:02.119
You know really and and he was always kind of,

778
00:44:02.280 --> 00:44:05.360
you know, blanketed in this idea of being a maverick.

779
00:44:05.440 --> 00:44:08.360
For some reason, he liked being associated with with McCain

780
00:44:08.440 --> 00:44:13.239
and Lieberman into a degree because having that Maverick Monicum

781
00:44:13.320 --> 00:44:14.840
on him. You know he kind of he kind of

782
00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:15.920
cherished that a little bit.

783
00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:16.679
Yeah.

784
00:44:17.079 --> 00:44:20.960
Absolutely, and and again this this, this, And I think

785
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:23.239
that's why it hit hard in the moment, because when

786
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:26.519
you have a guy who is so often again I

787
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:28.760
keep going back to this word genial, you know, just

788
00:44:28.840 --> 00:44:32.519
a good natured, happy warrior going there, and for him

789
00:44:32.559 --> 00:44:37.119
to that righteous indignation that came through in that was

790
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:41.559
was was really effective in what he was saying is

791
00:44:41.639 --> 00:44:44.360
sometimes when you have these folks who kind of it

792
00:44:44.480 --> 00:44:48.239
all again, the righteous indignation just burns through their traditional

793
00:44:48.320 --> 00:44:50.559
genial personality and you could just te I never met

794
00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:52.199
Lindsay Gret, but you could just tell he's a good

795
00:44:52.280 --> 00:44:55.159
natured fellow, right. But for him to get into this,

796
00:44:55.159 --> 00:44:58.639
this this mode where he just was like boom dialed

797
00:44:58.639 --> 00:45:01.440
in on it, it was it was definitely an amen moment.

798
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:03.400
I remember saying to myself that I was like, hey,

799
00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:05.519
that was that was badass.

800
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:07.920
So well to me. To me, another impressive thing about

801
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:11.840
Lindsay Graham was that how he became friends with Donald

802
00:45:11.880 --> 00:45:14.800
Trump when he was running for president and the at

803
00:45:14.840 --> 00:45:17.679
vitriol that was between the two of them, and certainly

804
00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:21.360
January the sixth. What happened there, which later you know,

805
00:45:21.400 --> 00:45:24.480
Lindsey Graham apologized to Donald Trump about but you know,

806
00:45:24.519 --> 00:45:27.239
they were friends. They were regularly on the golf course together.

807
00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:31.039
And and you think, okay, and and here's Donald Trump

808
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:34.760
giving out if you remember gave out Lindsey Graham's phone number, remember.

809
00:45:35.119 --> 00:45:37.519
Absolutely, I mean that was that was kind of he

810
00:45:37.599 --> 00:45:39.360
kind of went through a transformation with that. But that's

811
00:45:39.400 --> 00:45:42.119
you know, that's kind of politics too. Absolutely, And then

812
00:45:42.679 --> 00:45:44.840
that's I always find that one an interesting thing about

813
00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:47.119
Donald Trump is is he kind of he never really

814
00:45:47.119 --> 00:45:49.320
holds gru I mean, maybe he does hold grudges and

815
00:45:49.360 --> 00:45:51.800
we don't see it. But if you can savage him

816
00:45:52.800 --> 00:45:55.519
and then the next a couple of days later, if

817
00:45:55.519 --> 00:45:57.880
you start talking to him and because had former relationship

818
00:45:57.920 --> 00:46:00.000
with him, and then start to work with him, suddenly

819
00:46:00.239 --> 00:46:02.719
what you said before is just kind of you know,

820
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:03.920
water under the bridge.

821
00:46:04.159 --> 00:46:05.880
So it's kind of like it's kind of like the

822
00:46:06.159 --> 00:46:08.519
schoolyard battles to go on. You remember when we were

823
00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:12.559
growing up, we'd say things, who are you know, our

824
00:46:12.559 --> 00:46:15.920
fellow students and whatever, you know, we'd we'd cut him down,

825
00:46:16.000 --> 00:46:18.639
and uh, you know after recess. You know, you're back,

826
00:46:18.719 --> 00:46:21.280
you're back together and friends and all that kind of stuff.

827
00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:24.159
So it's it goes water under the bridge. Well look

828
00:46:24.159 --> 00:46:26.679
at let's let's get an update on what's going on

829
00:46:26.760 --> 00:46:28.480
with Scotus here and now, yeah.

830
00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:30.920
Just briefly, just briefly before we run out of time,

831
00:46:31.199 --> 00:46:33.360
a couple a couple of interesting notes. Is two of

832
00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:36.039
the justice is interesting. Justice Kagan, who had a moment

833
00:46:36.079 --> 00:46:38.039
with Lindsay Graham as well. Just real quick, Lindsey Graham,

834
00:46:38.039 --> 00:46:41.679
if you recall uh during the Kagan hearing, H said

835
00:46:41.679 --> 00:46:46.519
in confirmation hearing, Lindsey Graham kind of humanized just Elena

836
00:46:46.559 --> 00:46:48.159
Kagan in the moment. He asked her what she was

837
00:46:48.159 --> 00:46:50.800
doing on Christmas Day, and she interpreted it as you know,

838
00:46:50.920 --> 00:46:53.480
one of those questions that senators give him about case

839
00:46:53.559 --> 00:46:56.760
long interpretation and legal philosophy, et cetera, et cetera. And

840
00:46:56.840 --> 00:46:58.639
she's and he said, and she gave her this, she

841
00:46:58.719 --> 00:47:00.199
started to go down this road, and He's said, no,

842
00:47:00.239 --> 00:47:01.800
I just want to know what you do for Christmas Day?

843
00:47:01.840 --> 00:47:04.599
And she said, I'm paraphrasing it, but she said, like

844
00:47:04.639 --> 00:47:06.639
most Jews, I was probably eating ginner at a Chinese

845
00:47:06.639 --> 00:47:09.119
restaurant something like that. It's something to that effect, and

846
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:12.000
everybody laughed, and it was a really important humanizing moment,

847
00:47:12.280 --> 00:47:14.559
which kind of and she even she said this yesterday

848
00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:16.800
when she was giving when she was in her testimony

849
00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:19.280
in front of Congress. And we'll get to why they

850
00:47:19.280 --> 00:47:21.079
were in front of Congress in a second, but she

851
00:47:21.199 --> 00:47:23.559
actually gave a moment where she was expressing condolences on

852
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:26.360
behalf of the court and she said, probably, but for

853
00:47:26.559 --> 00:47:28.840
that moment, I might not be sitting on the Court.

854
00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:31.920
So we also have Justice Kagan, again was I think

855
00:47:32.039 --> 00:47:35.480
was a Clinton appointee who was again I think she

856
00:47:35.599 --> 00:47:37.760
was listener general and then dean of Harvard Law School,

857
00:47:37.880 --> 00:47:40.559
and who's emerged is really probably one of the strongest

858
00:47:40.599 --> 00:47:43.559
center left justices and I think probably the strongest of

859
00:47:43.599 --> 00:47:47.920
the left wing justices. Really incredible intellect. But she attributed

860
00:47:48.000 --> 00:47:50.719
her seat on the Supreme Court to Lindsay Graham as well.

861
00:47:50.840 --> 00:47:52.320
So that's an interesting kind of coda to what we

862
00:47:52.320 --> 00:47:55.920
were talking about. Anyway, So Justice Kagan and Justice Barrett

863
00:47:55.960 --> 00:47:59.559
were both in front of the congressional hearings yesterday seeking

864
00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:02.000
addition funds for the Supreme Court, actually seeking an increase

865
00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:04.199
in the Supreme Court's budget. If you can believe this,

866
00:48:04.280 --> 00:48:06.920
the Supreme Court's annual budget is only about two hundred

867
00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:12.280
and thirty million dollars, which for the government, the federal budget,

868
00:48:12.280 --> 00:48:16.239
that is percentages of pennies on the dollar. And you

869
00:48:16.280 --> 00:48:18.320
think of the impact and the effectiveness of the court

870
00:48:18.400 --> 00:48:21.679
and how the larger than life role at plays and

871
00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:24.800
actually they're only annual budgets about two hundred and thirty millions.

872
00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:27.039
So they were asking for an increase, a ten percent

873
00:48:27.119 --> 00:48:30.079
increase in their annual budget to increase security for the justices.

874
00:48:30.119 --> 00:48:32.519
And this is kind of an unfortunate need now in

875
00:48:32.639 --> 00:48:36.880
our in our era, particularly really the post Dobbs era,

876
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:39.719
the post Dobbs's I was.

877
00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:41.639
Going to say that he probably needed some more money

878
00:48:41.639 --> 00:48:45.239
to find out who released the Dobs information.

879
00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:49.280
Right, Yeah, Well, the increased budget request was twofold number one,

880
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:52.400
to increase security because they're facing a lot more.

881
00:48:52.639 --> 00:48:55.000
Oh yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's crazy. Hey, by the way,

882
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:57.440
just to stand correct, it was the Barack Obama. I

883
00:48:57.440 --> 00:48:58.400
thought I thought it was a little bit o.

884
00:48:59.599 --> 00:49:01.559
Yeah, that's okay, that's right, thank you.

885
00:49:01.639 --> 00:49:02.960
Yeah, anyway, go ahead.

886
00:49:03.119 --> 00:49:06.119
Yeah, she was a listener general under under Clinton and

887
00:49:06.159 --> 00:49:09.000
then was you know, yeah, I apologize for that. Time

888
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:12.920
goes fast anyway. So, so they were asking for increased

889
00:49:12.920 --> 00:49:15.800
money because they're facing increased security threats. Justice Barrett gave

890
00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:18.039
some anecdotes where she's facing where she had to talk

891
00:49:18.079 --> 00:49:22.199
about wearing a bulletproof vest being the object of a

892
00:49:23.000 --> 00:49:25.519
it's called a swatting incident. I've actually never heard of

893
00:49:25.559 --> 00:49:28.559
this before up until this point, where people call in, Uh,

894
00:49:28.679 --> 00:49:31.639
it's it's like a farce, where they call in that

895
00:49:31.719 --> 00:49:34.079
their gunshots in the house to have the swat teams

896
00:49:34.119 --> 00:49:35.039
descend on the homes.

897
00:49:35.079 --> 00:49:39.239
Exactly right. Apparently this has been this has been happening, uh,

898
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:42.079
with with some regularity. I've I've heard about this, you know,

899
00:49:42.599 --> 00:49:45.199
quite often more often than it should happen, and especially

900
00:49:45.239 --> 00:49:48.840
with with some of these officials houses. You know, I mean,

901
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.559
the justices have been attacked in so many ways, and

902
00:49:53.000 --> 00:49:56.599
you know, here Kavanaugh had an assassination especially Yeah, exactly.

903
00:49:56.960 --> 00:50:05.960
But but you know in Justice Amy bar Justice Barrett,

904
00:50:06.440 --> 00:50:09.440
Justice Barrett, she she's been tormented. I mean, her kids

905
00:50:09.440 --> 00:50:12.199
have been tormented. I mean, it's like these people have

906
00:50:12.239 --> 00:50:15.320
crossed the line and and I am surprised at how

907
00:50:15.880 --> 00:50:19.760
lacks the uh you know, law enforcement there is there

908
00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:22.360
in d C. Why they don't grab these people, jail

909
00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:24.519
them and you know them sit in jail for a

910
00:50:24.519 --> 00:50:25.719
while and think about this.

911
00:50:25.960 --> 00:50:28.000
And I think, I think that's that's part of it.

912
00:50:28.079 --> 00:50:30.199
I think now that the Supreme Court has a dedicated

913
00:50:30.199 --> 00:50:32.960
police force, they traditionally they really didn't have a lot

914
00:50:33.000 --> 00:50:35.199
of security. I mean there are stories about Justice Scalia.

915
00:50:35.719 --> 00:50:38.519
We go to daily mass, uh right, and just walk

916
00:50:38.559 --> 00:50:40.480
from the Supreme Court just a couple of blocks, no

917
00:50:40.559 --> 00:50:43.440
problem going to going to Mass every day. And are

918
00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:46.199
there other stories of Justice Chief Justice Roberts would go

919
00:50:46.199 --> 00:50:47.920
to baseball games and there was never any kind of

920
00:50:47.920 --> 00:50:50.039
security or anything. But now we're in a new era

921
00:50:50.119 --> 00:50:53.079
where they require protection details and et cetera, et cetera.

922
00:50:53.159 --> 00:50:56.519
So I think that these are necessary changes. Unfortunately, it's unfortnate.

923
00:50:56.920 --> 00:50:59.079
It's what happens when you open the border and allow

924
00:50:59.119 --> 00:51:01.920
millions of illegal to come in, and then you have

925
00:51:02.400 --> 00:51:07.400
a movement within our government that wants to designify law

926
00:51:07.480 --> 00:51:11.760
enforcement and so many other issues that have to do

927
00:51:11.840 --> 00:51:15.320
with safety and national security. I mean, this is just

928
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:19.039
amazing where we are, and you know what Trump is

929
00:51:19.079 --> 00:51:22.559
trying to do is you know, get back to almost

930
00:51:22.559 --> 00:51:25.800
like the Rudy Giuliani, you know concept of broken windows.

931
00:51:26.000 --> 00:51:27.639
We got to take care of the small things. We

932
00:51:27.719 --> 00:51:31.840
have got to you know, protect national security and protect

933
00:51:31.840 --> 00:51:33.440
our officials. Yeah.

934
00:51:33.440 --> 00:51:37.000
Absolutely, I would add one other, one other item to

935
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:41.000
it too, And I'd never hesitate to to extort on

936
00:51:41.039 --> 00:51:44.280
Congress here. I think what's happened also in because you've

937
00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:48.039
had Congress has failed to do their legislative duty under

938
00:51:48.039 --> 00:51:51.920
our constitution so much save Act for example. Yeah, right,

939
00:51:51.960 --> 00:51:57.079
they failed to legislate, and so into that breach comes

940
00:51:57.199 --> 00:51:59.400
when you think about the separation of powers and the

941
00:51:59.480 --> 00:52:02.760
jocking for powers, because Congress, which is which was designated

942
00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:05.519
as the most powerful branch of government and has the strong,

943
00:52:05.639 --> 00:52:10.480
the most institutional power under our Constitution, abrogates its duties

944
00:52:10.519 --> 00:52:14.440
and its job and essentially farms it out to the

945
00:52:14.519 --> 00:52:18.000
executive branch. And then the Supreme Court has to adjudicate

946
00:52:18.360 --> 00:52:22.480
these issues and has a disproportionate amount of impact on

947
00:52:22.519 --> 00:52:24.880
our society. Because of Congress failing to do this, you

948
00:52:24.880 --> 00:52:28.639
have the executive and the judiciary having to work these powers.

949
00:52:29.119 --> 00:52:32.840
The power and the influence of the Supreme Court becomes disproportionate,

950
00:52:32.920 --> 00:52:37.519
not intended our from our framers, and so what was

951
00:52:37.800 --> 00:52:42.119
intended to be a judicatory body to have a lesser

952
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:46.119
impact because Congress was actually doing its job unfortunately now

953
00:52:46.280 --> 00:52:50.639
has a broader impact. So you have these cases. You know,

954
00:52:50.679 --> 00:52:54.480
twenty thirty years ago, the profile wasn't rising because so

955
00:52:54.480 --> 00:52:58.400
many of these issues were resolved via the legislative process,

956
00:52:58.480 --> 00:53:02.960
now adjudicator, via the executive process or the judicial process.

957
00:53:03.480 --> 00:53:05.519
So I think it puts a lot of these individuals

958
00:53:05.559 --> 00:53:08.440
in the spotlight that weren't necessarily intended to ever be

959
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:10.840
in the spotlight under our frame of government.

960
00:53:11.079 --> 00:53:12.760
You know, you think about it, Michael, how many executive

961
00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:15.119
orders under Donald Trump just in this term alone?

962
00:53:15.199 --> 00:53:19.679
You know, And again I'm always leary of that from

963
00:53:19.679 --> 00:53:23.719
a constitutional conservative principle, but I recognize the reality of

964
00:53:23.760 --> 00:53:26.800
the situation, of the fact that you have Congress that can't,

965
00:53:26.840 --> 00:53:29.440
as I've said many times on your show, can't you

966
00:53:29.599 --> 00:53:34.280
get a piece of legislation requiring voter ID through the Congress.

967
00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:38.159
What choice is the executive branch to do when you

968
00:53:38.239 --> 00:53:42.079
can't have basic common sense legislation go through Congress. Because

969
00:53:42.119 --> 00:53:45.360
you have certain individuals who are committed to blocking any

970
00:53:45.440 --> 00:53:50.360
kind of progress. It's or important legislation that is necessary

971
00:53:50.400 --> 00:53:52.639
for our country and that all of us agree on.

972
00:53:52.920 --> 00:53:55.440
So again, maybe a Congress steps up, starts to do

973
00:53:55.519 --> 00:53:58.840
their job, relieve some of the pressure on the executive branch,

974
00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:01.559
and the judiciary cools the room a little bit so

975
00:54:01.639 --> 00:54:04.199
you don't have these security threats that these justices are facing.

976
00:54:04.199 --> 00:54:04.239
It.

977
00:54:04.280 --> 00:54:06.480
In the meantime, you of course have to have increased

978
00:54:06.519 --> 00:54:09.480
security for them so you don problem.

979
00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:12.199
Well, here's the Assistant General Counsel of Landmark Legal, Michael Negol,

00:55:38.440 --> 00:55:41.440
book that's in the works right now that's, you know about,

1009
00:55:41.440 --> 00:55:44.320
ready to be fully ges stated and released and we're

1010
00:55:44.320 --> 00:55:46.559
excited for that. Hey, mister Scott, good morning to you.

1011
00:55:46.599 --> 00:55:47.519
How are you?

1012
00:55:47.519 --> 00:55:49.480
No, I'm really well, thank you appreciate it.

1013
00:55:49.920 --> 00:55:53.360
Well, here we are all that has been going on

1014
00:55:53.360 --> 00:55:56.639
in our country. Uh, you know, there's still a disturbance,

1015
00:55:56.679 --> 00:55:59.960
you might say in the Star Wars vernacular, A disturbance

1016
00:56:00.079 --> 00:56:05.360
in the forest and that disturbance is real. And rediscovering

1017
00:56:05.360 --> 00:56:09.239
America with you know, what you tried to do is

1018
00:56:09.280 --> 00:56:12.400
to get people to understand that what they were seeing

1019
00:56:12.679 --> 00:56:15.880
was not something that their lying eyes were telling them

1020
00:56:15.920 --> 00:56:19.360
that in fact it was. It was true that you

1021
00:56:19.480 --> 00:56:23.840
had the disassembling of this great American idea that was

1022
00:56:23.840 --> 00:56:27.199
taking place that we have been warned about for decades, right.

1023
00:56:27.480 --> 00:56:31.519
Yes, yeah, yeah, I think one of the things I

1024
00:56:31.599 --> 00:56:35.800
do in Rediscovering America is I trace you know, not

1025
00:56:35.880 --> 00:56:38.440
just the background of the founding of the country, which

1026
00:56:38.480 --> 00:56:42.920
included the Great Awakening. Certainly it starts with discovering the

1027
00:56:42.960 --> 00:56:46.519
new world and then opening the door to you know,

1028
00:56:46.679 --> 00:56:51.519
they've had the Protestant Reformation in the early fifteen hundreds,

1029
00:56:52.000 --> 00:56:56.840
which really changed everything, and it made people feel like

1030
00:56:57.960 --> 00:57:02.760
they were free to pursue their real faith as they

1031
00:57:03.000 --> 00:57:05.679
saw it as God led them, and they were led

1032
00:57:06.000 --> 00:57:08.920
to want to start new communities in the new world,

1033
00:57:09.119 --> 00:57:11.719
which is really extraordinary. And that's the beginning of.

1034
00:57:11.679 --> 00:57:14.480
America right well. And the thing is, when you think

1035
00:57:14.519 --> 00:57:17.559
about the faithfulness of God, this wasn't the first time.

1036
00:57:17.639 --> 00:57:20.360
I mean time and again in history you see where

1037
00:57:20.400 --> 00:57:23.559
God says okay, look at you've disconnected from me. It's

1038
00:57:23.599 --> 00:57:27.239
time for you to reconnect. And he reminds us in

1039
00:57:27.320 --> 00:57:29.239
his word, you know, if my people who are called

1040
00:57:29.320 --> 00:57:32.119
by my name, that call is always out there and

1041
00:57:32.119 --> 00:57:34.599
where God is calling his people to come back to him.

1042
00:57:35.199 --> 00:57:40.719
And they must realize, as we've talked many times on

1043
00:57:40.760 --> 00:57:44.639
this show, is that it's about reconciling ourselves to God.

1044
00:57:44.679 --> 00:57:48.159
Some would say it's about repentance. And you know, often

1045
00:57:48.199 --> 00:57:50.480
people want to talk about revival, but you can't have

1046
00:57:50.599 --> 00:57:53.519
revival without repentance. You have to go you know, what

1047
00:57:53.519 --> 00:57:55.800
are you repenting from? If you don't understand what you're

1048
00:57:55.800 --> 00:57:58.960
repenting from, well then you're not going to connect with God.

1049
00:57:59.679 --> 00:58:03.159
And here it is that we've been apart from God.

1050
00:58:03.559 --> 00:58:07.039
A truth is relative. We have our children that are

1051
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:12.199
being scarred up and you know trans you know, based

1052
00:58:12.199 --> 00:58:15.599
on theory and as if God's not right, God doesn't

1053
00:58:15.599 --> 00:58:17.920
have it right. You know, he is the one that

1054
00:58:18.000 --> 00:58:20.800
declares them male and female. And all of a sudden,

1055
00:58:20.800 --> 00:58:23.880
you have these liberals coming on the scene, a small minority,

1056
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:27.119
by the way, but nonetheless a very effective minority because

1057
00:58:27.280 --> 00:58:30.719
they're altering the lives, the one lives that these children have,

1058
00:58:31.159 --> 00:58:36.559
they're altered forever, and there's no you know, what's the recompense, Scott,

1059
00:58:37.320 --> 00:58:40.280
You know, I don't hear any apology from these people.

1060
00:58:41.440 --> 00:58:42.519
No, there's no apology.

1061
00:58:42.639 --> 00:58:43.280
No, no.

1062
00:58:43.360 --> 00:58:46.440
I mean what you find with people that have crossed

1063
00:58:46.440 --> 00:58:51.400
over certain lines of sin, there's a way back for them.

1064
00:58:51.440 --> 00:58:54.880
But as you pointed out, it is repentant, it's deep repentance.

1065
00:58:55.440 --> 00:58:55.639
Yeah.

1066
00:58:55.800 --> 00:58:59.119
Well, if you can't repent, if you can't acknowledge you've

1067
00:58:59.159 --> 00:59:02.360
given that advice that you involved in a medical practice

1068
00:59:02.400 --> 00:59:06.920
that was utterly corrupt in that it was suggesting that

1069
00:59:07.079 --> 00:59:12.480
you could change your gender through certain hormone treatments and surgeries.

1070
00:59:12.920 --> 00:59:13.039
Uh.

1071
00:59:13.519 --> 00:59:17.920
Of course that's absolutely false. Uh, and it's totally out

1072
00:59:17.960 --> 00:59:20.800
of it's it's it's utterly false. And the fact that

1073
00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:25.039
our medical community has not been able to police itself,

1074
00:59:25.079 --> 00:59:28.960
if you will, is really it's an indictment on one

1075
00:59:29.000 --> 00:59:33.519
of our most important sectors of our our economy and

1076
00:59:33.599 --> 00:59:36.519
our you know, in this, in this in the services

1077
00:59:36.519 --> 00:59:41.320
that we're tied to, health is everything. Healthcare for most

1078
00:59:41.320 --> 00:59:44.239
people is the most important thing. So we have healthcare

1079
00:59:44.280 --> 00:59:50.960
industry that is disconnected from really carrying out healthy practices.

1080
00:59:52.440 --> 00:59:54.360
You know, godly healthy practices.

1081
00:59:54.679 --> 00:59:57.719
Yeah, well they've gone from doing no harm to how

1082
00:59:57.760 --> 00:59:58.960
can we make more money?

1083
00:59:59.280 --> 01:00:03.400
That's right, absolutely, that's absolutely right. They would rather have

1084
01:00:03.440 --> 01:00:07.639
a patient for life than a cured patient, right, and

1085
01:00:08.239 --> 01:00:11.199
patient for life is better than patient that gets cured.

1086
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:14.880
And this is you know, this is our children, Scott,

1087
01:00:15.360 --> 01:00:17.960
and I would dare say I'd be curious to know

1088
01:00:18.119 --> 01:00:21.039
of these people. Of course, the information is hidden from us.

1089
01:00:21.079 --> 01:00:22.599
That's the thing. I mean, this has been going on

1090
01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:25.800
for you know, well over a decade. Where's the empirical evidence.

1091
01:00:25.840 --> 01:00:28.559
We have more empirical evidence coming out of Europe than

1092
01:00:28.599 --> 01:00:30.679
we do in our own country about you know, the

1093
01:00:30.760 --> 01:00:32.679
damage that's being done here. And this is why the

1094
01:00:32.719 --> 01:00:35.119
Europeans said, hey, this is this is a bad idea.

1095
01:00:35.280 --> 01:00:36.960
You don't forget it. We're not doing this anymore.

1096
01:00:37.880 --> 01:00:41.679
Yes, yeah, I know it really. What it tells us,

1097
01:00:41.920 --> 01:00:44.719
I think, more than anything, is that there is this

1098
01:00:45.599 --> 01:00:50.480
deep state that is very entrenched in our country. And

1099
01:00:50.480 --> 01:00:53.440
it's not just in our government and our government agencies.

1100
01:00:54.440 --> 01:00:58.000
It's beyond that. It's it's operating in our you know,

1101
01:00:58.079 --> 01:01:02.159
in our culture, in our media, in our universities and

1102
01:01:02.239 --> 01:01:08.199
our educational system, where people who are of weak minds.

1103
01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:14.199
They conform to what they think their masters, if you will,

1104
01:01:14.440 --> 01:01:18.800
the controllers want you to. You know, they take positions

1105
01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:23.880
that are in accord with what the deep State wants,

1106
01:01:24.239 --> 01:01:29.039
and the state wants to weaken the United States so

1107
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:33.639
that America could be Yes, transformation of America is part

1108
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:36.519
of it, but it is it is in the service

1109
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:38.519
of a new global order that they.

1110
01:01:38.440 --> 01:01:42.519
Envision, right, And that's the control of the populace. Yes.

1111
01:01:42.960 --> 01:01:46.760
And it's anti free freedom, it's anti God, you know.

1112
01:01:46.920 --> 01:01:49.360
And the deal is is again you look at the

1113
01:01:49.360 --> 01:01:51.280
word of God and the word God talks about Levin.

1114
01:01:51.719 --> 01:01:55.760
Levin is that representative of sin? And this is what

1115
01:01:55.800 --> 01:01:59.599
you're talking about, is that Levin That those ideas, those

1116
01:01:59.599 --> 01:02:03.320
corrupt ideas, get into the body politic, it gets into

1117
01:02:03.320 --> 01:02:07.639
God's creation. It violates the very seed that God has created.

1118
01:02:07.679 --> 01:02:10.800
Scott absolutely, yeah.

1119
01:02:11.079 --> 01:02:13.320
I mean you think about you think about the impact

1120
01:02:13.840 --> 01:02:17.199
that they They're not happy enough just to you know,

1121
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:19.199
have a little piece of the pire in it. I mean,

1122
01:02:19.239 --> 01:02:22.400
they want total control. Like you said, this is all

1123
01:02:22.800 --> 01:02:26.679
an agenda. This is not by accident. And and you

1124
01:02:26.760 --> 01:02:28.760
see these ideas that have been coming up over the

1125
01:02:28.800 --> 01:02:33.559
decades and now it's become you know, so obvious and pervasive.

1126
01:02:34.199 --> 01:02:37.599
It's like, you know, I keep thinking, Scott, at some

1127
01:02:37.679 --> 01:02:40.000
point there's going to be some major pushback on this.

1128
01:02:40.079 --> 01:02:40.719
There has to be.

1129
01:02:41.320 --> 01:02:43.960
Well, I think it's already starting, and it will, you know,

1130
01:02:44.000 --> 01:02:48.000
and it should be coming out of the Christian, Jewish

1131
01:02:48.159 --> 01:02:54.039
Christian communities because you know, we believe that God created

1132
01:02:54.119 --> 01:02:57.840
us for purpose. Right, it all spelled out. It's not

1133
01:02:57.880 --> 01:03:02.480
a complicated purpose purpose. I'm my head. God wants our welfare,

1134
01:03:02.599 --> 01:03:06.800
our happiness, our joy, our fulfillment. He wants us to

1135
01:03:07.000 --> 01:03:12.880
join in marriage, a normal heterosexual marriage. Of course, that's

1136
01:03:12.880 --> 01:03:15.360
the only kind of marriage, because that's the only kind

1137
01:03:15.360 --> 01:03:18.920
of marriage that God created to pro create. He corrects

1138
01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:20.440
us to pro create.

1139
01:03:21.119 --> 01:03:23.199
Be fruitful, MULTIPLI right.

1140
01:03:23.440 --> 01:03:23.679
Right.

1141
01:03:25.480 --> 01:03:28.519
It turns out that when you're you know, when that

1142
01:03:28.559 --> 01:03:31.760
part of your life is in order, most of the

1143
01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:33.239
rest of your life can be in order.

1144
01:03:34.039 --> 01:03:38.000
Right, Yeah, exactly, Even though you might look at it

1145
01:03:38.039 --> 01:03:40.159
and say, hey, that might be a bit of a challenge.

1146
01:03:40.159 --> 01:03:42.840
I mean, some of these young people are making decisions,

1147
01:03:42.880 --> 01:03:47.079
you know, on abortion because they see the inconvenience and

1148
01:03:47.360 --> 01:03:50.800
they do not see the blessings of it. But this

1149
01:03:50.880 --> 01:03:54.039
is what happens. You know, when you continue to focus

1150
01:03:54.119 --> 01:03:58.199
on those things that are ungodly, God will release you,

1151
01:03:58.199 --> 01:04:00.239
you know, to your own desires.

1152
01:04:01.599 --> 01:04:07.079
Unfortunately. Yes, yes, so you know we're in I believe

1153
01:04:07.119 --> 01:04:10.159
that we're really any critical time what we'll call an

1154
01:04:10.199 --> 01:04:13.760
inflection point or a turning. I really feel that we're

1155
01:04:14.199 --> 01:04:18.320
right there on the cusp of this exactly. So I'm

1156
01:04:18.320 --> 01:04:19.639
an optimist. Actually.

1157
01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:26.039

northern Mozambique has reached a devastating new level. In the

1217

With Scott pal senior fellow at the Discovery Institute his

1252
01:09:28.239 --> 01:09:31.800
timeless book, Rediscovering America. Get your hands on it if

1253
01:09:31.800 --> 01:09:34.640
you haven't already, because he's got another one coming and

1254
01:09:35.199 --> 01:09:38.920
it's a follow up to Rediscovering America. Because after reading

1255
01:09:39.119 --> 01:09:44.159
Rediscovering America, I know many people Scott say, now, what

1256
01:09:44.159 --> 01:09:44.840
what do I do?

1257
01:09:45.680 --> 01:09:50.279
That's right, Well, you know, Rediscovering America really ends. It

1258
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:54.600
traces God's hand behind American history, and that hand behind

1259
01:09:54.640 --> 01:09:58.680
American history sort of went through the nineteen sixties with

1260
01:09:58.880 --> 01:10:02.000
the civil rights move That was the last sort of

1261
01:10:02.119 --> 01:10:06.800
important move of God in American culture, in our system.

1262
01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:11.439
Was was the fulfillment of Thomas Jefferson's vision in the

1263
01:10:11.479 --> 01:10:17.600
Declaration of Independence. We've just anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.

1264
01:10:17.640 --> 01:10:19.640
What was one of the key things in the declaration?

1265
01:10:20.119 --> 01:10:26.000
It was that we were all created equally equal value.

1266
01:10:26.039 --> 01:10:29.720
That doesn't mean we have equal talents, equal intelligence, equal

1267
01:10:29.800 --> 01:10:33.600
levels of you know, of creativity, motivation and so forth.

1268
01:10:33.680 --> 01:10:35.960
We are all different in that regard. And it's good

1269
01:10:35.960 --> 01:10:41.079
that we are equal value before God, right, and and

1270
01:10:41.119 --> 01:10:44.960
that's and and that and that's a wonderful thing that

1271
01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:48.199
we can all live knowing that we're as good as

1272
01:10:48.239 --> 01:10:48.800
the rich.

1273
01:10:48.680 --> 01:10:53.560
Guy, equal value before God and before one another.

1274
01:10:54.079 --> 01:10:55.399
That's right.

1275
01:10:54.880 --> 01:10:58.279
That's that's the other part lest we forget is that

1276
01:10:58.560 --> 01:11:02.079
and this is why you know, you have the cause

1277
01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:05.560
again that we need to focus on love. It's because

1278
01:11:05.560 --> 01:11:09.479
the horizontal relationship has been compromised. And this is what

1279
01:11:09.640 --> 01:11:13.640
happens when you forget God, you forget people, You forget

1280
01:11:13.920 --> 01:11:16.800
your family, you forget your wives and your children, and

1281
01:11:16.840 --> 01:11:20.279
they all suffer as a result of That's God, that's.

1282
01:11:20.239 --> 01:11:21.640
Right, so right.

1283
01:11:21.680 --> 01:11:24.960
You know when I think it was, you know, when

1284
01:11:25.479 --> 01:11:31.159
one of the Sadducees or the Pharisees asked Jesus, which

1285
01:11:31.239 --> 01:11:34.399
of the commandments what's the greatest?

1286
01:11:35.079 --> 01:11:36.880
Remember that, yes, absolutely, and.

1287
01:11:36.960 --> 01:11:39.239
Jesus had a very simple answer because they were looking

1288
01:11:39.359 --> 01:11:43.239
for some matching up of existing commandments, and Jesus the

1289
01:11:43.279 --> 01:11:44.000
answers they.

1290
01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:45.920
Had so many, they had so many commandments. They took

1291
01:11:45.960 --> 01:11:48.000
ten commandments and when they make ten thousand out of

1292
01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:48.880
them or something.

1293
01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:51.960
Like that, Yeah, the Mosaic law. Yeah, his answer was

1294
01:11:52.079 --> 01:11:55.399
very simple, but it was different. It was your call.

1295
01:11:55.479 --> 01:11:58.960
If you love God with all your heart, and you

1296
01:11:59.079 --> 01:12:03.920
love your neighbor, is your yourself, you will have fulfilled.

1297
01:12:03.439 --> 01:12:04.359
All of the law.

1298
01:12:04.840 --> 01:12:06.960
Yeah, well, unbelievable.

1299
01:12:07.680 --> 01:12:11.479
So you're so right, Bill, and saying that, you know, love,

1300
01:12:11.800 --> 01:12:17.920
loving God has to be connected and joined to loving people,

1301
01:12:18.479 --> 01:12:21.039
right one and not the other.

1302
01:12:21.119 --> 01:12:22.520
We need to do both.

1303
01:12:23.279 --> 01:12:25.880
Because you need you need the love of God that

1304
01:12:26.039 --> 01:12:29.920
allows you to pour out love to others. You can't

1305
01:12:29.960 --> 01:12:34.319
give what you don't have and so disconnected from God.

1306
01:12:34.479 --> 01:12:38.079
And this is what you know, I believe my mission

1307
01:12:38.119 --> 01:12:40.479
has been Scott and yours as well. I believe is

1308
01:12:40.479 --> 01:12:43.720
that you know, we're trying to reconnect our audience with

1309
01:12:43.920 --> 01:12:46.920
the source of love, the source of power, the source

1310
01:12:46.960 --> 01:12:50.399
of truth, the source of every good thing that comes

1311
01:12:50.439 --> 01:12:54.159
down from Heaven that our Creator has planned and purpose

1312
01:12:54.239 --> 01:12:57.359
for each one of us. And uh, you know, the

1313
01:12:57.439 --> 01:12:59.960
thing is like right now, you know we've gone through,

1314
01:13:00.359 --> 01:13:02.760
you know, with with the Gold Cup. It's been just

1315
01:13:02.880 --> 01:13:07.159
so eye opening, I think for everyday Americans, because we're

1316
01:13:07.199 --> 01:13:10.520
hearing from the Europeans how much they're loving America. Yeah,

1317
01:13:10.560 --> 01:13:12.520
they love our air conditioning, they love our ice and

1318
01:13:12.600 --> 01:13:14.880
buckets in and out and all that good stuff. But

1319
01:13:14.920 --> 01:13:18.680
they're loving the people. And to hear them talk, it's

1320
01:13:18.720 --> 01:13:22.039
almost like God has allowed a bunch of you know,

1321
01:13:22.359 --> 01:13:26.000
the Tokavills to come into our country and give their observation.

1322
01:13:26.279 --> 01:13:28.760
And one of the things that stands out consistently for

1323
01:13:28.840 --> 01:13:32.079
me is they say, you know, Americans, they're good people.

1324
01:13:33.439 --> 01:13:37.479
We are yeah, generally speech we are the majority of

1325
01:13:37.520 --> 01:13:41.880
Americans are you know, are good. And the founders you.

1326
01:13:41.760 --> 01:13:44.079
Know that they they had that down.

1327
01:13:44.159 --> 01:13:47.960
They knew that if they were to build a godly country,

1328
01:13:48.800 --> 01:13:52.000
it had to be connected with the people, right, the

1329
01:13:52.039 --> 01:13:55.479
sovereignty of the of the nation needed to be rooted

1330
01:13:55.560 --> 01:13:58.800
in the people, not in the elites, but in the people.

1331
01:13:59.039 --> 01:14:02.920
Okay, exactly what gives us. It's what gives us hope, Scott.

1332
01:14:03.319 --> 01:14:06.159
You know, because you see good people all around, and

1333
01:14:06.199 --> 01:14:08.520
I'm saying to the good people, look at let your

1334
01:14:08.560 --> 01:14:11.960
goodness come forth, and and and and it's not to

1335
01:14:12.039 --> 01:14:15.439
be overdone because I think a lot of people's goodness

1336
01:14:15.560 --> 01:14:18.479
is out there, you know, whether it's you know here

1337
01:14:18.520 --> 01:14:22.359
it is. We have this horrific incident with you know,

1338
01:14:22.439 --> 01:14:26.279
earthquakes and you know around the world and devastation that's

1339
01:14:26.319 --> 01:14:30.079
going on and what happens. America is always the first

1340
01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:33.960
to you know, go there and help a country, provide food,

1341
01:14:33.960 --> 01:14:37.479
whether you know it's Argentina or Cuba or whatever, you know,

1342
01:14:37.640 --> 01:14:41.359
somebody that we may see as an adversary politically, but

1343
01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:45.039
we're there with food and support and prayer all the time.

1344
01:14:45.079 --> 01:14:49.399
Scott, Absolutely, Yes, it's it's it's a great testimony to

1345
01:14:50.560 --> 01:14:56.039
you know, the the residual virtue of America. Right, I'll

1346
01:14:56.079 --> 01:14:59.840
call it residual virtue because you know, we don't you know,

1347
01:15:01.079 --> 01:15:03.079
we don't see it as much as we see that,

1348
01:15:04.680 --> 01:15:07.479
you know, the ungodly things that are also that also

1349
01:15:07.520 --> 01:15:09.239
exists in America, they're more visible.

1350
01:15:10.079 --> 01:15:13.960
Well no, well, because we're giving it more attention, Scott, Right,

1351
01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:16.680
that's what we're doing. I mean, it's it's of our

1352
01:15:16.720 --> 01:15:21.039
own doing. It's that we are undoing ourselves by spending

1353
01:15:21.119 --> 01:15:24.800
an endless amount of time on these you know, social

1354
01:15:24.880 --> 01:15:29.640
media trappings that want to you know, create a world

1355
01:15:29.680 --> 01:15:33.840
that is so ungodly and unreal and uh, and it

1356
01:15:33.920 --> 01:15:36.720
leads us to believe that, oh, you know, we're not

1357
01:15:36.840 --> 01:15:42.039
as good as that there's injustice that's taking place. And

1358
01:15:42.079 --> 01:15:44.640
then we go along with this narrative that's been promoted

1359
01:15:44.680 --> 01:15:50.119
for decades in our educational systems that promotes this victim

1360
01:15:50.439 --> 01:15:54.640
you know, this victim mentality that you know, you don't

1361
01:15:54.720 --> 01:15:57.680
you didn't get yours because you know you're a victim.

1362
01:15:57.720 --> 01:16:01.439
You're oppressed, you know, by these oppressors and these billionaires

1363
01:16:01.479 --> 01:16:04.319
and you know these you know, all this narrative that

1364
01:16:04.439 --> 01:16:07.920
Mamdani is promoting in New York and other socialists you know,

1365
01:16:08.199 --> 01:16:11.479
pitting everyday Americans. Again, this is anti God. You and

1366
01:16:11.520 --> 01:16:13.159
I just talked about it. You know, we have to

1367
01:16:13.199 --> 01:16:15.039
love God and love one another. Well, how is that

1368
01:16:15.079 --> 01:16:18.600
loving one another when you see them as oppressors?

1369
01:16:19.039 --> 01:16:22.159
That's right, it's fun. Look, the message that has come

1370
01:16:22.159 --> 01:16:24.920
out of Marxism is straight out of the devil, it

1371
01:16:24.960 --> 01:16:29.439
really is. It didn't just create horrendous you know, totalitarian

1372
01:16:29.520 --> 01:16:33.720
systems like the Soviet Union and China. China is a

1373
01:16:33.800 --> 01:16:39.279
totally totalitarian controlled society, one of the biggest nations, second.

1374
01:16:39.039 --> 01:16:39.840
Only to India.

1375
01:16:39.880 --> 01:16:44.039
Now where everyone is really under the control of the state,

1376
01:16:44.680 --> 01:16:49.199
where the state can can control your money, It can

1377
01:16:49.239 --> 01:16:52.319
turn your money off, it can make your money worthless

1378
01:16:52.600 --> 01:16:57.119
if you go from one canton to another, right or

1379
01:16:57.399 --> 01:16:59.079
you or if you're deemed by.

1380
01:16:59.000 --> 01:17:00.119
The state as being.

1381
01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:05.239
Having protested or been critical of anything of the state,

1382
01:17:05.800 --> 01:17:09.640
they can just shut your money off like you're you're

1383
01:17:09.680 --> 01:17:13.880
instantly impoverished. Right, those kind of controls, and we need

1384
01:17:13.920 --> 01:17:16.079
to be alert of that in America because there is

1385
01:17:16.119 --> 01:17:19.680
this movement towards a you know, towards a central bank

1386
01:17:20.279 --> 01:17:25.640
digital currency. It's not the bitcoin in ethereum and the

1387
01:17:25.720 --> 01:17:29.159
crypto currencies, which actually give you freedom because they're not

1388
01:17:29.199 --> 01:17:32.960
controlled by the government, right exactly, But but it's a

1389
01:17:33.439 --> 01:17:37.800
it would be a new digital currency that I believe

1390
01:17:38.000 --> 01:17:41.760
we're on the path towards going to because because of

1391
01:17:41.760 --> 01:17:45.279
the movements that the banks have made exactly now, the

1392
01:17:45.319 --> 01:17:49.239
people can stop it. They can stop it if they

1393
01:17:49.279 --> 01:17:50.880
say no, we're not cooperating with that.

1394
01:17:51.760 --> 01:17:51.840
Uh.

1395
01:17:52.000 --> 01:17:54.479
And of course people that are buying gold and crypto

1396
01:17:54.680 --> 01:17:58.359
are basically making that statement that we are protecting ourselves

1397
01:17:58.479 --> 01:18:02.960
against the lapse of the fiat currency and the replacement

1398
01:18:03.000 --> 01:18:07.359
by a central bank digital currency. We will not go there, right.

1399
01:18:07.479 --> 01:18:09.960
And you know, for those that read the Bible, we know,

1400
01:18:10.479 --> 01:18:13.680
you know, in the Book of Revelations, we're warned not

1401
01:18:13.760 --> 01:18:16.640
only that this could happen, but that this will happen.

1402
01:18:17.439 --> 01:18:21.840
And because of the fall of man, because as we

1403
01:18:21.880 --> 01:18:25.159
continue to become more and more secularized and move away

1404
01:18:25.199 --> 01:18:27.479
from God and think, you know, just like in the

1405
01:18:27.520 --> 01:18:30.399
Old Testament days that you know, we want to live

1406
01:18:30.439 --> 01:18:34.159
our lives according to our own eyes. Well, you know,

1407
01:18:34.279 --> 01:18:37.399
this is cycled in and out time and again throughout

1408
01:18:37.439 --> 01:18:40.359
human history and the results are disaster.

1409
01:18:42.000 --> 01:18:44.239
They are they are. So we have the benefit of

1410
01:18:46.039 --> 01:18:49.840
understanding history. We have the Bible, which is really a

1411
01:18:49.880 --> 01:18:54.520
wonderful history book on not only what God did, but

1412
01:18:54.600 --> 01:18:57.319
what you know, what you know, what his people did

1413
01:18:57.479 --> 01:19:00.600
or didn't do, and what the consequences were. And if

1414
01:19:00.640 --> 01:19:03.479
we can practice we can learn from those things.

1415
01:19:04.960 --> 01:19:06.239
You know we can.

1416
01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:09.800
The future can be very bright for America.

Good morning Bonner, Good Morningville.

1494
01:23:13.439 --> 01:23:17.680
Hey, lots to catch up on, especially this judicial rewrite

1495
01:23:17.760 --> 01:23:21.640
that you're talking about that could shape one thousand climate cases.

1496
01:23:21.680 --> 01:23:22.760
Tell our audience about this.

1497
01:23:23.279 --> 01:23:25.439
Yeah, this is a very big deal that has not

1498
01:23:25.600 --> 01:23:33.319
received the attention it deserves. But there is a judicial

1499
01:23:33.399 --> 01:23:39.000
as you put it, a judicial rewrite. This was done

1500
01:23:39.840 --> 01:23:49.359
by a committee commissioned by Surprise surpris the United Nations,

1501
01:23:49.520 --> 01:23:55.159
as part of supplying judges at the federal and state

1502
01:23:55.520 --> 01:24:01.960
level the kind of information they need in order to

1503
01:24:02.119 --> 01:24:07.399
allow certain scientific evidence in court cases. Now, this is

1504
01:24:07.439 --> 01:24:12.239
perfectly understandable because judges frequently have to deal with medical

1505
01:24:12.279 --> 01:24:15.159
issues and climate issues and what have you, for which

1506
01:24:15.199 --> 01:24:18.960
they don't have adequate training, and so it was decided

1507
01:24:19.000 --> 01:24:25.840
by Congress some decades ago to supply judges with kind

1508
01:24:25.880 --> 01:24:29.520
of a guidebook. Well, the one that deals with climate

1509
01:24:30.600 --> 01:24:34.760
has a couple of chapters in that have been rewritten.

1510
01:24:34.800 --> 01:24:39.560
And as I said, the parties responsible for this are

1511
01:24:39.640 --> 01:24:43.000
Surprise Surprise, tied to the United Nations, and what they

1512
01:24:43.039 --> 01:24:48.319
have done is very significant. In the past, it has

1513
01:24:48.399 --> 01:24:53.920
been determined, regardless of the field we're talking about, that

1514
01:24:54.199 --> 01:25:01.359
scientific evidence can be admitted provided it forms with the

1515
01:25:01.640 --> 01:25:06.279
scientific method. That is, you have an hypothesis, you test

1516
01:25:06.439 --> 01:25:12.920
the hypothesis. If you can confirm the hypothesis through rigorous tests,

1517
01:25:13.359 --> 01:25:18.600
then you can allow that into the courtroom. In this case,

1518
01:25:19.159 --> 01:25:24.039
scientific evidence or the scientific method has been replaced by

1519
01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:30.600
scientific consensus. That is a horse of a different color,

1520
01:25:31.039 --> 01:25:36.800
because that is subject to political fashion, that is subject

1521
01:25:36.880 --> 01:25:42.159
to grants that certain parties receive from the governments, or

1522
01:25:42.199 --> 01:25:48.600
from private foundations, or from other entities, entities which have

1523
01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:53.920
an agenda. No less than the late great Michael Crichton said,

1524
01:25:54.720 --> 01:25:58.399
if it's consensus, it's not science, and if it's science,

1525
01:25:58.560 --> 01:26:04.279
it's not consensus exactly, and he was absolutely right. Now,

1526
01:26:04.439 --> 01:26:10.319
why is that important? There are over one thousand cases

1527
01:26:10.960 --> 01:26:16.640
dealing with the climate pending at federal and state courts.

1528
01:26:17.319 --> 01:26:23.079
If judges start relying on a chapter that relies on

1529
01:26:23.359 --> 01:26:30.199
scientific consensus, then the judge in case, and by the way,

1530
01:26:30.199 --> 01:26:32.720
there are six thousand of them at the federal and

1531
01:26:32.800 --> 01:26:37.159
state level, then these judges will be, in many cases

1532
01:26:37.319 --> 01:26:39.640
relying on nothing more than quackery.

1533
01:26:41.079 --> 01:26:43.319
And of course, how many of these judges, he's six

1534
01:26:43.399 --> 01:26:46.199
thousand federal and state judges, How many of them are

1535
01:26:46.239 --> 01:26:47.640
already known activists.

1536
01:26:48.720 --> 01:26:50.880
A lot of them are, because a lot of them

1537
01:26:51.039 --> 01:26:54.880
were appointed, going actually all the way back to Clinton,

1538
01:26:55.920 --> 01:27:00.720
but certainly Obama and Biden. We know who they are.

1539
01:27:01.439 --> 01:27:08.079
And if they rely on political consensus, that political consensus

1540
01:27:08.520 --> 01:27:15.520
simply confirms they're already widely known political beliefs. The damage

1541
01:27:15.600 --> 01:27:20.359
that can accrue to the American people from this is

1542
01:27:20.560 --> 01:27:27.359
absolutely enormous, because climate lawsuits have been filed to shake

1543
01:27:27.479 --> 01:27:33.159
down American energy companies said to be responsible for a

1544
01:27:33.279 --> 01:27:37.520
catastrophic warming of the climate. And if there is no

1545
01:27:37.800 --> 01:27:44.800
corrective mechanism in the judicial system that allows judges to

1546
01:27:45.239 --> 01:27:52.720
throw out scientific consensus in favor of the scientific method,

1547
01:27:53.000 --> 01:27:54.960
then we're really asking for trouble.

1548
01:27:55.399 --> 01:27:55.640
So we.

1549
01:27:57.279 --> 01:27:59.520
Took two steps forward and three steps back.

1550
01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:03.199
That's exactly right. And now a letter has been written

1551
01:28:03.239 --> 01:28:09.760
by three imminent climate scientists, two Chief Justice John Roberts,

1552
01:28:09.880 --> 01:28:15.439
who oversees a tiny agency that looks into this, saying

1553
01:28:16.039 --> 01:28:22.840
requesting him to disallow the new chapter and either commission

1554
01:28:22.960 --> 01:28:25.079
a new one or go back to the old one

1555
01:28:25.079 --> 01:28:29.840
because they fixed something that wasn't broken. Exactly nothing wrong

1556
01:28:29.880 --> 01:28:34.760
with the original chapter in the guide book that is

1557
01:28:34.800 --> 01:28:38.119
supposed to tell judges what they should and should not

1558
01:28:38.319 --> 01:28:39.720
allow in their courtrooms.

1559
01:28:40.319 --> 01:28:43.920
Well, I thought that this had been cleared up, that

1560
01:28:44.319 --> 01:28:49.720
legislation and regulation with the EPA had cleared this up.

1561
01:28:50.039 --> 01:28:55.079
So they they're unwinding all all this positive, the positive

1562
01:28:55.560 --> 01:28:58.039
work and efforts that's been done by the current regime.

1563
01:28:58.119 --> 01:29:02.199
Right, Oh, that's that's what the effort is. Somebody on

1564
01:29:02.239 --> 01:29:06.439
the other side is nothing if not creative. They recognized

1565
01:29:06.960 --> 01:29:11.359
that their position is considerably weaker, both legally and in

1566
01:29:11.359 --> 01:29:16.159
a regulatory sense than it was just a few years ago,

1567
01:29:16.680 --> 01:29:20.800
and they hit on this idea of trying to tip

1568
01:29:20.880 --> 01:29:28.359
the scales in courtrooms in order to benefit plaintiffs seeking

1569
01:29:28.399 --> 01:29:32.079
to shake down oil companies and ultimately, by extension, shaking

1570
01:29:32.119 --> 01:29:35.800
down the American people because a result of this would

1571
01:29:35.840 --> 01:29:42.399
be putting barriers between the American people and affordable energy

1572
01:29:43.359 --> 01:29:47.720
from which ordinary American citizens would pay dearly exactly.

1573
01:29:48.000 --> 01:29:50.520
So, basically, what we're doing is what the UN has

1574
01:29:50.560 --> 01:29:53.319
always been dreaming of, and that is that the United

1575
01:29:53.359 --> 01:29:57.640
States of America would subordinate its supremacy to the United Nations.

1576
01:29:58.560 --> 01:30:02.119
That's exactly right. And this is coming at a precisely

1577
01:30:02.239 --> 01:30:07.520
at a time when the United States has achieved global

1578
01:30:07.680 --> 01:30:13.159
energy dominance thanks to its rich assets and resources of

1579
01:30:13.239 --> 01:30:16.640
fossil fuels. We're the world's largest producer of oil, where

1580
01:30:16.680 --> 01:30:20.399
the world's largest producer of natural gas, and we're the

1581
01:30:20.439 --> 01:30:25.720
world's largest exporter of liquefied natural gas. In other words,

1582
01:30:25.720 --> 01:30:30.920
we're king Kong. We're also taking a much more favorable

1583
01:30:31.000 --> 01:30:35.520
view of nuclear energy. Now you put all of that together,

1584
01:30:35.920 --> 01:30:39.720
and it puts the United States in the driver's seat

1585
01:30:39.760 --> 01:30:43.600
when it comes to energy and frees us from any

1586
01:30:43.680 --> 01:30:50.039
dependence that we once had on the politically, geopolitically chronically

1587
01:30:50.159 --> 01:30:54.840
unstable Middle East. We no longer have that. So the

1588
01:30:54.880 --> 01:30:58.560
effort by the Greens here is to take us back

1589
01:30:58.600 --> 01:31:02.199
to yesterday day here. And that's precisely where we don't

1590
01:31:02.279 --> 01:31:03.920
want to go, right.

1591
01:31:03.960 --> 01:31:06.319
And do we have an idea in terms of net

1592
01:31:06.359 --> 01:31:09.640
cost because this isn't there's no upside here in this morner.

1593
01:31:10.159 --> 01:31:12.760
Oh no, this is a total cost. I mean we're talking,

1594
01:31:13.119 --> 01:31:15.840
you know, trillions upon trillions of dollars that this would

1595
01:31:15.920 --> 01:31:17.560
cost the American tax.

1596
01:31:17.279 --> 01:31:22.880
Payer, or right, the American taxpayer, the American ratepayer, the

1597
01:31:22.960 --> 01:31:30.000
American driver, you name it. The cost would be absolutely enormous.

1598
01:31:30.039 --> 01:31:33.399
You would see them from the supermarket to the gas

1599
01:31:33.439 --> 01:31:37.920
pump to wherever you are. Because the name of the

1600
01:31:38.000 --> 01:31:43.279
game here is to make fossil fuels unaffordable. Once you

1601
01:31:43.359 --> 01:31:48.359
make fossil fuels unaffordable. People have no recourse but to

1602
01:31:48.359 --> 01:31:51.720
buy electric vehicles which they don't want, or even in

1603
01:31:51.760 --> 01:31:56.000
some cases to buy no vehicles whatsoever exactly, which is

1604
01:31:56.079 --> 01:31:59.119
precisely what many of these people would like to see.

1605
01:31:59.479 --> 01:32:02.039
See. This is tied to the Democratic Party, isn't it.

1606
01:32:02.479 --> 01:32:04.239
Oh, yes, very much so.

1607
01:32:05.640 --> 01:32:08.239
That's the old Democratic Party, and no doubt the new

1608
01:32:08.279 --> 01:32:12.319
Democratic Socialist Party, by the way, not to be confused.

1609
01:32:11.840 --> 01:32:17.079
With that's right. They see the time running out on

1610
01:32:17.319 --> 01:32:22.680
climate and climate was wonderful for them because arguments made,

1611
01:32:22.920 --> 01:32:27.199
policies adopted in the name of addressing the so called

1612
01:32:27.279 --> 01:32:32.880
climate crisis put enormous amount of power into the hands

1613
01:32:33.079 --> 01:32:35.920
of ruling elites, and, by the way, no small amount

1614
01:32:36.039 --> 01:32:41.520
of money into the purveyors of green energy. That whole

1615
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:47.680
game was being jeopardized by court decisions, Trump administration policies,

1616
01:32:47.960 --> 01:32:53.520
further advancements in extraction of fossil fuels, particularly in the

1617
01:32:53.680 --> 01:32:58.079
United States through cracking. It looked as if the Green

1618
01:32:58.159 --> 01:33:02.319
Party was over and they're doing everything they possibly can

1619
01:33:02.840 --> 01:33:07.000
to restore the so called transition to green energy.

1620
01:33:07.680 --> 01:33:09.960
Well, here we got the return of John Kerry and

1621
01:33:10.000 --> 01:33:14.199
Al Gore. Perhaps, Oh my lord, that's scary. Just thinking

1622
01:33:14.239 --> 01:33:16.880
about it for just a moment, and let's go, hey,

1623
01:33:17.159 --> 01:33:19.960
just to put the cherry on top. Let's add Greta

1624
01:33:20.000 --> 01:33:20.560
Thunberg too.

1625
01:33:20.840 --> 01:33:21.319
Oh.

1626
01:33:21.359 --> 01:33:24.239
Absolutely, miss, I miss.

1627
01:33:24.039 --> 01:33:27.039
Being yelled at. I want some young girl yelling at

1628
01:33:27.079 --> 01:33:28.960
me because she knows so much.

1629
01:33:29.039 --> 01:33:31.760
Right. Absolutely, be that as it may.

1630
01:33:32.279 --> 01:33:34.680
We'll have to leave it there. Doctor Bonnard Cohen. He

1631

1671
01:35:41.319 --> 01:35:45.159

1672
01:35:45.359 --> 01:35:48.960
You're spending more, you are making the same or less money.

So what do you do?

1674
01:35:50.760 --> 01:35:53.000
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

1675

It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what

1676

Hey, welcome back Bill Martinez here along with Focus on

1710
01:37:48.600 --> 01:37:51.600
the Family's Glenn Stamp. He is the director of Global

1711
01:37:51.640 --> 01:37:55.159
Family Formation Studies and focused. Hey, Len, good to have

1712
01:37:55.239 --> 01:37:57.439
you with us. How are you. I'm right, Bill, good

1713
01:37:57.479 --> 01:38:03.079
to be with you. Well, Kaitanji Brown KBJ the woman

1714
01:38:03.159 --> 01:38:07.239
that couldn't define what a woman is, and you know,

1715
01:38:07.640 --> 01:38:12.239
she even admitted that somehow she's not a biologist. And

1716
01:38:12.720 --> 01:38:16.680
other people, me included, wondered, well, you know, how could

1717
01:38:17.039 --> 01:38:20.640
we be putting somebody on the Supreme Court that doesn't

1718
01:38:20.680 --> 01:38:23.279
even know if she is a woman or how to

1719
01:38:23.279 --> 01:38:25.840
define a woman. And of course it was almost like

1720
01:38:25.880 --> 01:38:29.000
this was a setup because no sooner does this happened,

1721
01:38:29.319 --> 01:38:31.239
you know, all of a sudden, we're dealing with you know,

1722
01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:34.640
men and women's sports and all this other wacky stuff

1723
01:38:34.680 --> 01:38:37.319
that you know, God warned us about, right.

1724
01:38:37.520 --> 01:38:40.840
Oh, Bill, it was absolutely a complete setup. And she's

1725
01:38:41.000 --> 01:38:45.920
on the court because President Joe Biden then said that

1726
01:38:45.960 --> 01:38:48.239
he was going to appoint a woman, a black woman,

1727
01:38:48.279 --> 01:38:51.720
to the Supreme Court. So like she shows up, she's

1728
01:38:51.760 --> 01:38:56.960
on you know, her confirm confirmation hearings and like, yeah,

1729
01:38:57.000 --> 01:38:59.199
you're right, Like she can't define what a woman is,

1730
01:38:59.319 --> 01:39:06.119
but now in Supreme Court hearings and conclusions she's continuing

1731
01:39:06.159 --> 01:39:07.800
the wackiness right.

1732
01:39:08.199 --> 01:39:11.119
Well. And the thing is is that the deal about

1733
01:39:11.159 --> 01:39:14.600
the Biden administration was all about checking the boxes, right

1734
01:39:15.199 --> 01:39:17.800
DEI and everything. I mean, you go right on down

1735
01:39:17.840 --> 01:39:20.560
whether you're talking about the vice president of the United States,

1736
01:39:20.840 --> 01:39:23.279
I mean his cabinet. I mean you look at his

1737
01:39:23.479 --> 01:39:27.039
cabinet versus the cabinet of Donald Trump, for example, and

1738
01:39:27.079 --> 01:39:29.920
you just go wow. I mean, when you looked at

1739
01:39:30.760 --> 01:39:33.199
Joe Biden's cabinet, with all due respect, it was almost

1740
01:39:33.279 --> 01:39:35.279
like you walked into one of those scenes from Star

1741
01:39:35.319 --> 01:39:37.920
Wars and you went into some canteena and there's all

1742
01:39:38.000 --> 01:39:40.319
kinds of just going, well, who are these people?

1743
01:39:40.600 --> 01:39:40.800
Right?

1744
01:39:41.399 --> 01:39:44.600
Yeah, no, exactly right. I mean they had all kinds

1745
01:39:44.680 --> 01:39:47.439
of I won't be ugly, but all kinds of interesting

1746
01:39:47.520 --> 01:39:51.880
people right in there. And you know Kataji Brown Jackson,

1747
01:39:51.920 --> 01:39:54.600
I mean, she's a smart woman, but she is not

1748
01:39:54.800 --> 01:40:00.159
Supreme Court caliber clearly, and well happens when you play

1749
01:40:00.399 --> 01:40:01.960
identity politics like that.

1750
01:40:02.560 --> 01:40:06.359
Well, and the thing is is that even the liberal

1751
01:40:06.479 --> 01:40:10.560
side of the justices sometimes you see them backing away

1752
01:40:10.600 --> 01:40:13.720
from her. Oh yeah, right, I mean even though they're

1753
01:40:13.720 --> 01:40:18.000
pretty much lockstep. But what where she really gets exposed

1754
01:40:18.079 --> 01:40:21.680
is when she's defending her position. Yeah.

1755
01:40:21.880 --> 01:40:26.119
Yeah, and they you know, you're right, even you know,

1756
01:40:26.279 --> 01:40:29.600
the two other liberal justices, You're right, kind of like

1757
01:40:29.760 --> 01:40:33.399
just back away from her, like, okay, appreciate what you're doing,

1758
01:40:33.439 --> 01:40:36.760
but you're not doing it in a really great way here, right.

1759
01:40:36.800 --> 01:40:39.800
Well, and like you said, in an intellectual way, because

1760
01:40:39.800 --> 01:40:42.640
you would hope that the justices would bring something to

1761
01:40:42.640 --> 01:40:46.159
bear to say, even if you know, even if you disagree,

1762
01:40:46.600 --> 01:40:51.159
at least present an argument, an intellectual argument that has

1763
01:40:51.800 --> 01:40:56.640
they can really, you know, I guess, open our eyes

1764
01:40:56.720 --> 01:41:00.800
and give us a valid perspective so that we can,

1765
01:41:00.920 --> 01:41:03.560
you know, chew on it, meditate on it and think, Okay,

1766
01:41:03.760 --> 01:41:05.720
you know, am I off here? Do I need to

1767
01:41:06.600 --> 01:41:10.640
adjust my considerations here? And when I find myself with

1768
01:41:10.680 --> 01:41:13.640
her arguments or that, it's like, wow, this is just

1769
01:41:13.960 --> 01:41:15.319
it's too far afield.

1770
01:41:16.159 --> 01:41:19.439
Yeah, no, it's it's I mean, yeah, she is clearly

1771
01:41:19.520 --> 01:41:21.800
not up for the job. And the piece that I

1772
01:41:22.039 --> 01:41:26.159
recently wrote for the Federalist highlights that in the really

1773
01:41:26.319 --> 01:41:33.680
wonderful decision protecting women in women's sports, she wrote alone descent,

1774
01:41:34.520 --> 01:41:37.720
and that was my piece, like, she is not qualified

1775
01:41:37.760 --> 01:41:41.079
for the court because she is just shot through with

1776
01:41:41.239 --> 01:41:45.560
gender ideology. I say, in this piece she had a

1777
01:41:45.800 --> 01:41:50.319
six paragraph descent. It wasn't a very long descent, but

1778
01:41:50.600 --> 01:41:55.039
she uses the term sex assigned at birth or assigned

1779
01:41:55.119 --> 01:42:00.279
mail at birth thirteen times in just six paragraphs, like

1780
01:42:00.760 --> 01:42:04.239
that's not even a real thing. It's as signed at birth.

1781
01:42:04.680 --> 01:42:10.039
Like that shows that she is in bed with gender ideology.

1782
01:42:10.560 --> 01:42:13.319
And there's no room on the court for somebody like that,

1783
01:42:13.439 --> 01:42:18.479
because gender ideology is not anti science, it's contrascience. It

1784
01:42:18.560 --> 01:42:24.039
is intentionally against science, and that is what her allegiance

1785
01:42:24.239 --> 01:42:24.680
is too.

1786
01:42:25.000 --> 01:42:30.079
Unfortunately, is this is there any basis here for impeachment

1787
01:42:30.960 --> 01:42:36.079
because of her ideology? That is so you know, it's

1788
01:42:36.119 --> 01:42:40.840
just so disparate from I guess the majority of Americans.

1789
01:42:41.119 --> 01:42:44.920
Well that's interesting, I mean politically could at work know?

1790
01:42:45.960 --> 01:42:49.319
Is there a case for it? Absolutely there's a case

1791
01:42:49.359 --> 01:42:55.479
for it, because and the Trump administration has really done

1792
01:42:55.680 --> 01:43:02.079
wonderfully searching out and getting out this crazy gender ideology

1793
01:43:02.760 --> 01:43:06.880
that has been shot through our federal government. And this

1794
01:43:06.920 --> 01:43:09.680
would be right in line for him to say, no,

1795
01:43:09.880 --> 01:43:15.479
we cannot have a justice that I mean talking about

1796
01:43:15.720 --> 01:43:19.039
sex assigned at birth, assigned male at birth. You know

1797
01:43:19.119 --> 01:43:23.479
that's she might as well just be citing astrology because

1798
01:43:23.560 --> 01:43:27.159
it has the same basis, it has the same academic

1799
01:43:27.760 --> 01:43:31.840
or scientific foundation. What she's referring to is just a

1800
01:43:31.880 --> 01:43:39.920
belief system that is contrareality and scientific biological fact.

1801
01:43:40.760 --> 01:43:43.159
Yeah, where does that thinking end up, Glenn?

1802
01:43:43.760 --> 01:43:48.159
Will this ends up with us not being able to

1803
01:43:48.239 --> 01:43:50.640
say we know what a woman is. I mean, like,

1804
01:43:50.880 --> 01:43:55.119
at least she's been relatively consistent. She wasn't consistent when

1805
01:43:55.159 --> 01:43:59.279
she said she's not a biologist, because you know, gender

1806
01:43:59.319 --> 01:44:03.640
ideology has nothing to do with biology. She got that wrong.

1807
01:44:04.039 --> 01:44:08.439
It's just belief. It's just Bill, I could proclaim to

1808
01:44:08.479 --> 01:44:10.920
you right now that I'm a woman, and if you're

1809
01:44:10.960 --> 01:44:14.520
a good gender idiologue, you would have to say congratulations,

1810
01:44:14.560 --> 01:44:17.560
I'm glad you found your true self. I mean, there

1811
01:44:17.600 --> 01:44:22.880
is no objective reality to this whatsoever. And so that's

1812
01:44:22.920 --> 01:44:25.640
where it takes us. It takes us into crazy land.

1813
01:44:26.319 --> 01:44:32.239
And this is demonstrated by Justice Jackson herself in this

1814
01:44:32.560 --> 01:44:36.880
recent descent in this women's sports protection case.

1815
01:44:37.359 --> 01:44:41.239
You know, sociologically, Glenn, I look at the damage that

1816
01:44:41.399 --> 01:44:45.319
is you know that is done all in the name

1817
01:44:45.399 --> 01:44:50.880
of this gender dysphoria and ideology. That is being championed

1818
01:44:50.920 --> 01:44:54.840
by a Supreme Court justice, And how many years down

1819
01:44:54.880 --> 01:44:56.920
the road do you go and how many kids are affected?

1820
01:44:56.960 --> 01:44:59.640
I mean already. I mean you look back and it's

1821
01:44:59.640 --> 01:45:03.800
been over a decade where you've had gender reassignment and

1822
01:45:03.880 --> 01:45:06.039
all these things that have taken place, and we've got

1823
01:45:06.600 --> 01:45:10.760
empirical evidence around the world where this has just proven

1824
01:45:10.800 --> 01:45:12.520
to be a very bad.

1825
01:45:12.279 --> 01:45:17.319
Idea, absolutely, bill, and it's doing real harm to real

1826
01:45:17.520 --> 01:45:23.319
kids because you have people who are role models, so

1827
01:45:23.439 --> 01:45:27.840
to speak, like Katanji Brown Jackson, the first black woman

1828
01:45:28.039 --> 01:45:31.840
on the Supreme Court. You know, like that's not nothing,

1829
01:45:32.399 --> 01:45:35.520
and so she holds sway and for her to be

1830
01:45:35.760 --> 01:45:40.920
saying things like this in a Supreme Court justice descent

1831
01:45:41.479 --> 01:45:48.479
where you have to be reasonable, rationable, rational, systematic, and consistent,

1832
01:45:49.119 --> 01:45:52.800
I mean, this is the devolution of our court to

1833
01:45:52.880 --> 01:45:55.279
put up with this kind of thing. And I would

1834
01:45:55.279 --> 01:45:59.479
bet you that, like you referred even earlier, that even

1835
01:45:59.800 --> 01:46:03.359
the liberal justices kind of roll their eyes, like come on,

1836
01:46:03.479 --> 01:46:05.239
you know, at least there's a level that we've got

1837
01:46:05.279 --> 01:46:05.920
to keep up.

1838
01:46:05.840 --> 01:46:10.720
Here right exactly. Well, and the thing again, I'm just thinking,

1839
01:46:11.159 --> 01:46:13.800
we got one life to live, you know, in this

1840
01:46:14.720 --> 01:46:19.079
arena here. Yeah, and this is all, you know, part

1841
01:46:19.159 --> 01:46:23.800
of a grand experiment, a theoretical idea. And it's not

1842
01:46:23.960 --> 01:46:28.079
like Katanji Brown Jackson is, you know, becoming a trans

1843
01:46:28.119 --> 01:46:31.720
and having you know, her body parts removed all in

1844
01:46:31.760 --> 01:46:35.119
the name of the cause. You know, she's out there

1845
01:46:35.159 --> 01:46:40.840
pontificating in the theoretical which is just amazing to me

1846
01:46:41.000 --> 01:46:44.359
that here it is. And even the justices themselves, yes

1847
01:46:44.359 --> 01:46:47.000
they're backing off, but I think they need to be

1848
01:46:47.359 --> 01:46:50.560
even more mindful for the sake and integrity of the

1849
01:46:50.600 --> 01:46:51.359
court itself.

1850
01:46:52.319 --> 01:46:54.840
Right, No, no, No, that's exactly right, because there's a

1851
01:46:54.960 --> 01:46:59.840
standard to be upheld and that is with rationality and

1852
01:47:00.079 --> 01:47:05.640
with reason and biological fact. And you know again, gender

1853
01:47:05.680 --> 01:47:09.279
ideology is the complete opposite of all of that. And

1854
01:47:09.319 --> 01:47:11.479
that's why Bill, it needs to and you know this,

1855
01:47:11.560 --> 01:47:14.600
and your audience knows this, like it needs to be

1856
01:47:14.720 --> 01:47:18.600
rooted out in such a profound way. And that's what

1857
01:47:18.640 --> 01:47:21.479
we need to do. And when Kantaji Brown Jackson, Justice

1858
01:47:21.600 --> 01:47:27.359
Jackson uses language like this in an official Supreme Court

1859
01:47:27.560 --> 01:47:31.640
United States Supreme Court dissent, she needs to be called

1860
01:47:31.680 --> 01:47:34.439
on it. She needs to be laughed at, because it

1861
01:47:34.560 --> 01:47:39.640
is ridiculous. There is nobody assigned male or female at birth.

1862
01:47:40.079 --> 01:47:46.560
Male and female are biological realities, medical scientific realities, and

1863
01:47:46.880 --> 01:47:47.800
that's just the.

1864
01:47:47.800 --> 01:47:51.479
Way it is. Well, you also say, I mean there's

1865
01:47:51.520 --> 01:47:56.039
a I guess, you know, an agreed idea of integrity

1866
01:47:56.479 --> 01:48:00.119
and honesty that you assume belongs to the court. And

1867
01:48:00.159 --> 01:48:03.119
of course I understand when as soon as you stay assume,

1868
01:48:03.279 --> 01:48:07.000
it gets risky and there's problems. But this really speaks

1869
01:48:07.039 --> 01:48:11.279
to the fair mindedness and why these things are able

1870
01:48:11.319 --> 01:48:14.960
to creep in is because the general consensus is that

1871
01:48:15.199 --> 01:48:18.279
when you are in this position, you have been vetted

1872
01:48:18.319 --> 01:48:20.720
in such a way to where there is a level

1873
01:48:20.720 --> 01:48:26.920
of integrity. But you indict the justice here in terms

1874
01:48:27.000 --> 01:48:29.960
of her even lying to people. I mean, wait a minute,

1875
01:48:30.199 --> 01:48:33.079
you are a Supreme cour Justice and you're lying.

1876
01:48:33.760 --> 01:48:36.960
Yes, it is, Bill, It is a lie because she's

1877
01:48:37.000 --> 01:48:43.880
saying something that is categorically untrue and unprovable. That's what

1878
01:48:44.279 --> 01:48:47.920
is remarkable about this. And folks, I mean Bill, I

1879
01:48:47.960 --> 01:48:51.920
would say to all of your listeners that we need

1880
01:48:52.119 --> 01:48:58.199
to be sharp and reject all gender ideology at every level,

1881
01:48:58.399 --> 01:49:02.720
and that includes even using polite pronouns at work. It

1882
01:49:02.800 --> 01:49:06.079
is not polite to say things that we know are

1883
01:49:06.239 --> 01:49:11.399
not true. And that's a catechism of gender ideology is

1884
01:49:11.520 --> 01:49:14.159
just to start with the pronouns or why can't you

1885
01:49:14.239 --> 01:49:15.880
just call me by a different name?

1886
01:49:16.439 --> 01:49:16.760
You know what?

1887
01:49:17.560 --> 01:49:21.399
They are untrue to what is and we cannot play

1888
01:49:21.399 --> 01:49:25.279
that game. We cannot even pretend to play that game

1889
01:49:25.439 --> 01:49:29.319
out of something called politeness. We have to speak what

1890
01:49:29.479 --> 01:49:32.800
is truth because once you start going down that road,

1891
01:49:33.319 --> 01:49:35.239
it never stops.

1892
01:49:35.239 --> 01:49:37.319
Right and the impact that it has in the culture,

1893
01:49:37.319 --> 01:49:39.680
it's like that pebble in you know, you're throwing the

1894
01:49:39.720 --> 01:49:42.279
pond and the circles, how they go out and how

1895
01:49:42.319 --> 01:49:44.520
they touch everybody. It's impossible for it not too.

1896
01:49:44.520 --> 01:49:47.319
Right now, Yeah, yeah, And that's why we need to

1897
01:49:47.359 --> 01:49:52.520
not apologize to say, you know what, a quote unquote

1898
01:49:52.600 --> 01:49:55.560
trans coworker or friend, and we have to say put

1899
01:49:55.600 --> 01:49:58.560
that in quotes because nobody is trans. Trans is not

1900
01:49:58.640 --> 01:50:02.319
a thing. Even the America and Psychiatric Association says it's

1901
01:50:02.399 --> 01:50:05.680
not a medical term. But to see a coworker or

1902
01:50:05.720 --> 01:50:09.039
a family member who believes that they are, to say,

1903
01:50:09.039 --> 01:50:11.239
you know what, I love you, I care for you,

1904
01:50:11.359 --> 01:50:14.560
I will always be your greatest champion, but please do

1905
01:50:14.760 --> 01:50:17.760
not force me to say something that I know is

1906
01:50:17.880 --> 01:50:20.840
not true. I know that you are the man that

1907
01:50:20.920 --> 01:50:23.039
you are, I know that you're the woman that you are,

1908
01:50:23.199 --> 01:50:25.760
and I will always be nice to you. I will

1909
01:50:25.800 --> 01:50:28.560
always be kind to you. If I'm ever not, then

1910
01:50:28.600 --> 01:50:31.720
you call me on it. But please do not force

1911
01:50:31.800 --> 01:50:34.199
me to use words I know are not true.

1912
01:50:34.920 --> 01:50:38.000
Exactly Why should I give up my standing and my

1913
01:50:38.279 --> 01:50:41.840
understanding of truth in order to accommodate a lie.

1914
01:50:42.279 --> 01:50:44.720
Yeah, that's what I say, kind of jokingly but a

1915
01:50:44.760 --> 01:50:47.479
little bit serious. Is like, oh, I can't use my

1916
01:50:47.560 --> 01:50:50.600
pronouns and say, well, I identify as a person who believes

1917
01:50:50.600 --> 01:50:54.119
in biology. Why can't you accept my identity?

1918
01:50:54.439 --> 01:50:54.760
You know what?

1919
01:50:54.920 --> 01:50:57.640
Like, you don't get to call the shots here, and

1920
01:50:57.840 --> 01:51:01.439
anybody who says you have have to do what I

1921
01:51:01.680 --> 01:51:04.560
say in order for us to have a relationship. That

1922
01:51:05.000 --> 01:51:09.520
is the definition of relational unhealth. So exactly, you can't

1923
01:51:09.520 --> 01:51:12.359
even go there. Yeah, can you say manipulation?

1924
01:51:12.960 --> 01:51:16.720
Exactly exactly? We got to leave it there. Glenn Stanton
