1
00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:01.800
Are you ready?

2
00:00:02.080 --> 00:00:06.160
Yeah, Okay, let's do an Ill Martinez Live a program

3
00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:10.640
about current events, our culture, our values, our politics, and

4
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:11.359
our future.

5
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.080
And now Bill Martinez.

6
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:18.519
Well, good morning and Aloha America. Bill Martinez coming to

7
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:22.160
you live from Maui, Hawaii, and we've got to Grover,

8
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:25.280
Northwest on the other side of the planet almost Grover.

9
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:26.480
Good morning. How are you, sir?

10
00:00:26.839 --> 00:00:29.160
Hi here in d C. Keeping an eye on them?

11
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.759
Well, speaking of which, what's the latest buzz? I mean,

12
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.439
we're still, you know, obviously still trying to get our

13
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:40.439
heads on straight about the sudden passing of one Lindsay Graham.

14
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:45.600
Right, Yeah, Lindsay Graham was a friend. He saved the

15
00:00:45.640 --> 00:00:50.079
president's tax cut, that the one in the second term,

16
00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:54.359
the big beautiful veil we had. Normally, when you tax

17
00:00:54.439 --> 00:00:59.000
cuts inside reconciliation, which means you don't you can pass

18
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:02.600
it with a simple majority vote fifty votes plus the

19
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:05.719
Vice president. You don't need a single Democrat vote. There

20
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:09.040
is no Democrat that would help you pass taxes, tax cuts,

21
00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:12.159
tax cuts, pass these bills. They all vote no. They

22
00:01:12.159 --> 00:01:14.480
don't want the per child tax credit increase. They don't

23
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:17.439
want your rates reduced, they don't want lower taxes on

24
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:22.879
investment for new jobs. They don't want business taxes lower

25
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:24.120
so we can compete with China.

26
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:28.239
All of these things, everything that promotes growth. Grover. It's

27
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:29.879
amazing how anti growth they are.

28
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:34.319
Right, well, it makes sense. Economic growth reminds the American

29
00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:39.680
people that freedom brings prosperity, not government. They look to

30
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:42.519
businessmen and women. They start talking about Elon Musk being

31
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:45.319
a great guy. Who talks about any senator or congressman.

32
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:47.640
The way people talk about Elon Musk is like doing

33
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:52.439
amazing things and he's rich, but he's only got a

34
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:56.079
sliver of the value of what he's created. All these

35
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.799
people who buy stock in this, they're part owners. They

36
00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:00.879
didn't invent it, they didn't think of it, they didn't

37
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:03.519
do it. Well, they did do it. They contributed the

38
00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:06.560
capital to make it happen. They they are part of that.

39
00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:12.439
That's what freedom is about. So it's it's the Democrats

40
00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:15.199
would prefer not to have growth. They really liked the

41
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.599
Great Depression because the government got to allocate all the resources,

42
00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:23.039
and they're not really big on periods of strong economic

43
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:26.879
growth like under Reagan. Because I'm sorry, what's there for

44
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:30.439
me to do except get in the way and cause problems.

45
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:32.680
Yeah, I got a regulation for you and for you

46
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:34.599
and everybody gets a regulation, right.

47
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:37.319
That'll slow it down. That'll slow it down. Get those

48
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:40.319
regnitions and then they're important again. Then the businessmen come

49
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:45.080
and beg them to, you know, loosen the noose a little,

50
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:49.280
just a little bit. Here's a danger coming. I believe

51
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.080
we will defeat it, but be aware because it starts

52
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:53.719
to sneak up on us every once in a while.

53
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:56.319
It's not the first time we've seen this critter. And

54
00:02:56.360 --> 00:03:01.080
it's called a bi partisan commission that's going to neutrally

55
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.599
decide how to raise trillions of dollars in taxes. And

56
00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:15.960
we saw, unfortunately, one Republican uh Marino, Bernie Marino of Ohio,

57
00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.039
along with Elizabeth Warren put together for Elizabeth Warren's peace,

58
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.719
let's have a three trillion dollar tax increase, not reform

59
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:26.080
social security, just just pay put more money in so

60
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:28.960
it will fail for your children and grandchildren, not for you.

61
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:31.680
But they don't fix it, they don't perform it. They

62
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:34.120
don't turn into something where there's real savings, like a

63
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:36.800
four to win k or an ira, which other countries

64
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.319
have done. It's not like unheard of. We do it

65
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:43.840
all the four one k a retirement account. People have

66
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:47.759
real retirement and when when they pass away, there's real

67
00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:51.240
money that goes to their children, SoC security. You there's nothing,

68
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:55.360
there's nothing saved for you or your children at all.

69
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:57.639
So we got to rethink how they do that because

70
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.400
it doesn't work. It makes people poor, not rich, or

71
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:05.400
not more prosperous. But Marino said, we're gonna spend three

72
00:04:05.400 --> 00:04:07.840
trillion dollars just keeping it going and fixing nothing and

73
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:12.039
improving nothing. Actually it was you know, that wasn't his idea.

74
00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:16.000
That was that was Elizabeth Warren's idea, Pokmonta's, and he

75
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:19.519
signed on to it to appear on a bipartisan progressive something,

76
00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:23.800
but he was pretty much alone and every conservative, even

77
00:04:23.800 --> 00:04:26.120
the Heritage Foundation, which is a little bit wildly these

78
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:28.839
days compared to what it used to be. Cablos Star Wars,

79
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:31.879
that's the north North Star, that's where you're looking at.

80
00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:35.560
They're wandering off of it. This one boom boom knew

81
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:38.879
this is crazy. Very helpful of them and very good

82
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:43.879
to hear. There's now a group of let's do that,

83
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.439
not just the one time, but big okay and we're

84
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:50.519
going to have appointed people, like not elected people, make

85
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:55.639
these decisions. We have a commission to reform social security.

86
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.959
It's called the House of Representatives, which is mentioned in

87
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:02.079
the Constitution. It's called the Senate, which is mentioned in

88
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:05.600
the Constitution several times. Actually, And there's a president and

89
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:09.160
they pass a lot and then he signs it or

90
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.000
he doesn't, and then you have a bill. They go, no,

91
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:16.199
we can't pass what we want to pass massive patch

92
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:21.519
increases without this cover that some other group did it,

93
00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:22.279
and then.

94
00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:25.519
Yeah, you can blame them. Yeah, let's blame them, right, yeah, exactly.

95
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:27.879
My goodness, this is in front of me and I

96
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:30.920
have to vote yes or no in thirty six hours,

97
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:33.560
and I can't think about it. Rush, rush, rush, And

98
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:36.199
I can't amend it because then the Congress would be

99
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:40.240
back into being Congress and governing and that they'd be

100
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:43.360
responsible because everyone could not what I would have done.

101
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:45.480
But it was the you know, it was the commission.

102
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:47.680
I didn't like this part of it. I like, but

103
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.240
I voted, you know, I voted for the whole thing,

104
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:53.759
but I didn't like this. So once they tried this

105
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:57.519
a number of years ago, and Arrington is a Republican

106
00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:02.199
and named congressman from Texas. He wanted to sneak this,

107
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:05.079
and he made the mistake of somehow talking to us

108
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:07.120
and thinking that we might think it'd be a good

109
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:12.120
idea to sneak a tax increase into the budget. And

110
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.959
we spoke to the leadership House leadership, Senate leadership that

111
00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:19.000
wanted nothing to do with this, and most Houses and

112
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:21.120
Senate guys alerted to it. We're doing a letter to

113
00:06:21.120 --> 00:06:24.439
everybody about this new threat of setting up commission that

114
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:27.639
will secretly do a tax increase, and everybody in a concience, Hey,

115
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.480
you don't see my fingerprints on I was there. I

116
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.319
have an alibi. I was in the bar. I was

117
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:37.439
you know, I was watching TV show. Somebody else shot him.

118
00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:42.160
And they do this from time to time because they

119
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:44.240
have it. It's not like they haven't planned out what

120
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.720
they want. They know exactly what they want. They also

121
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:48.560
know they could never pass it through the House and

122
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.639
send it and get Trump to sign it exactly. But

123
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:56.439
poor Republicans jumped on with the usual Democrats. Doesn't matter, Democrats,

124
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:58.120
this is what the Democrat idea, they would do it.

125
00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:02.160
But these are the people who Trump has argued with

126
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:10.000
primary and they're leaving, and Cornon and the gentleman from Louisiana.

127
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:16.399
And guys like that, we're telling Cassidy and then you're right.

128
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:21.480
Yes, sorry, thank you. Tillis as well, which surprises me.

129
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:24.199
Tillis has been very heroic when he was the Speaker

130
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.839
of the House in North Carolina. They're facing their come

131
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:29.639
talks down to zero because he led the fight. So

132
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:32.240
so he's great on this stuff. But President poked him

133
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:35.399
one too many times and threatened a primary, so he

134
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:37.920
said I'm not running again and out the door. He

135
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:41.120
ain't doing any favors for the president, so why not

136
00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:45.120
play with this idea? And again, to be fair to him,

137
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.360
he's new to the Senate, the House. He doesn't know

138
00:07:47.399 --> 00:07:50.360
the other team pulls. This is a trick a few years,

139
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:56.600
so he may think it's real, but but it could katcha.

140
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:58.879
The press will be there blowing you know, you try

141
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:00.959
and start a fire, as of boys, if you wrought it,

142
00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:03.560
the press will be there blowing on it, trying to

143
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.680
get the fire to start. I think we'll be able

144
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.839
to stop it, but only because you and your listeners

145
00:08:10.519 --> 00:08:13.079
are hearing about it now. The day after they dropped

146
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:18.519
it and I think one there are two fake. If

147
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:21.040
you want to know which conservative groups are fake, the

148
00:08:21.079 --> 00:08:26.399
ones that endorse this are fake. There's a Committee for

149
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.560
Responsible Budget. Committee for Responsible Federal Budget. They always endorse

150
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:35.559
all the Democrat proposals. They endorsed Obamacare, massive spending and

151
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:40.480
tax they were a massive giveaway to the bailouts and

152
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:44.240
so on, and then they condemn all tax cuts because

153
00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:48.159
they're not responsible. Spending more money is responsible. And it's

154
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:50.720
run by a left wing Democrat. But the problem is,

155
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:52.919
there are a handful of Republicans who joined the board

156
00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:56.440
thinking it was going to be back and forth. I

157
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:59.240
told a few of them, and they're old, they're checked out.

158
00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:03.679
They're on some board directors. They don't care. It's no

159
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.600
they do know, but they don't care. And so but

160
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:09.639
so they stay on there and people use that well

161
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:12.919
operason things. That's a good idea and a little bit

162
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.759
one of them, you know, would like to be a player, maybe,

163
00:09:16.799 --> 00:09:18.639
and maybe this would be his way into the door.

164
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:20.759
But if you have to sell the taxpayers of the

165
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:23.279
country down the river in order to be a player,

166
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:25.480
that's a rather hire. I'll invite you over for chief

167
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:26.080
for free.

168
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:28.600
Really, why not, We've got to go to quit. Break

169
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:30.200
more from Grover after this stay with us.

170
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:33.799
This report is sponsored by IBM. A new study from

171
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:36.879
the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals a growing disconnect

172
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:40.960
between executive perceptions of AI progress and employee experience. Executives

173
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:43.480
report AI driven role change at twice the rate employees

174
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:46.399
experience it. Eighty one percent say AI skills are rewarded,

175
00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:49.320
yet forty three percent of employees lack employer AI training

176
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:53.440
and fifty percent say AI obscures contributions upartn Anaire, IBM's

177
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:55.480
Chief Talent Leadership and Culture Officer.

178
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:58.240
The organizations that belead in this at up won't just

179
00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:00.519
be the ones with the best AI. They'll be the

180
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.320
ones that invest equally in their workforce, making it clear

181
00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:07.720
when to trust or challenges, system strengthening, how managers coach decisions,

182
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:11.320
and rewarding employees for using AI responsibly, not just using

183
00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:11.879
it quickly.

184
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:14.519
The study finds that organizations most likely to stand out

185
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:18.480
redesign workflows enable managers to coach effectively, clarify decision making,

186
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.080
and align incentives. Alongside AI adoption, these organizations could see

187
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:24.240
up to seventy three percent higher revenue growth and an

188
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:27.559
eleven percent operating margin advantage over their peers. To learn more,

00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:33.440
Millions of people of all ages have speech, language or

191
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:37.440
hearing difficulties. A new national poll finds that communication breakdowns

192
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.519
frequently occur between caregivers and the people in their care,

193
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:44.320
causing an array of potentially serious problems. US caregivers of

194
00:10:44.360 --> 00:10:48.000
adults with communication difficulties were polled. The American Speech Language

195
00:10:48.000 --> 00:10:52.000
Hearing Association ASHA commissioned the poll and Yugov conducted it.

196
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:55.879
The poll revealed caregivers are concerned that communication breakdowns could

197
00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:59.080
hinder addressing medical problems and cause other safety issues that

198
00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:01.000
put at risk. The help of the person in need

So what do you do?

232
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:40.559
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

233
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:44.399
It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what.

Hey, we're back with you, Bill Martinez here along with

260
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:08.000
the President of Americans for Tax Reformer, America's pre eminent

261
00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:11.320
center right expert on taxes, Grover Norquis Grover. What's so

262
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:14.000
frustrating for Americans and why they need to respond is

263
00:14:14.000 --> 00:14:18.080
that look at every household during the Biden era and

264
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:21.000
even now, you know, our meeting and saying, okay, what

265
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:23.759
can we do? How can we save money? The adjustments

266
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:25.960
that we have to make certainly a little bit better

267
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:29.039
because of the big beautiful Bill, you know, a little

268
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:32.919
less cuts. Kids are able to participate in baseball programs

269
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:36.879
or you know, dance recitals or whatever it is that

270
00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:42.039
we're you know, we're considered discretionary. But meanwhile, our Congress

271
00:14:42.360 --> 00:14:44.840
thinks just the opposite. You know, they just see all

272
00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:46.919
this money that the government's taken in and they just

273
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:52.000
can't help themselves. What how can we get a message

274
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:53.720
to them to you know, stop it.

275
00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:57.039
But there are a couple of interesting ideas, and some

276
00:14:57.720 --> 00:14:59.840
you have to think long term, because there's very little

277
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.480
you can do between now and next Tuesday. But if

278
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.039
you want to end the slave trade in Britain, you

279
00:15:07.159 --> 00:15:10.279
start forty years ahead and you can you can get

280
00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:11.720
it done. If you want women to have the vote

281
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:14.039
in the United States, you start forty years ahead and

282
00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:17.000
you get it done. And if the people who keep

283
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:18.480
coming to the room, I have a plan to fix

284
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:20.559
it tomorrow, you almost have to show them the door.

285
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.399
If the audience goes, well, if we can do it tomorrow,

286
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:27.000
we'll follow that guy well. And then they eventually come

287
00:15:27.039 --> 00:15:29.320
back and go, Okay, we realize it's going to take

288
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:35.519
more than tomorrow. And fiscal discipline is in that zone.

289
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:39.080
At the state level. Americans for Tax Reform has been

290
00:15:39.120 --> 00:15:43.799
working with twelve states now to phase their income tax

291
00:15:43.919 --> 00:15:47.360
to zero, to put a cap on spending, and when

292
00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:51.120
revenue comes up above that, instead of spending the additional money,

293
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:53.360
you just cut the income tax. So how do you

294
00:15:53.480 --> 00:15:55.679
pay for getting read of the income tax? You pay

295
00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:56.600
for it by not spending.

296
00:15:57.879 --> 00:15:59.320
That's concept right.

297
00:15:59.799 --> 00:16:04.200
You don't replace the income you don't spend the I'm sorry,

298
00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:07.960
I shouldn't have said the tax the taxes. When you

299
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:10.440
talk to somebody, if you want to know whether they're

300
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:13.720
a Republican or Democrat, you ask to talk about taxes.

301
00:16:13.759 --> 00:16:16.600
And when they refer to the taxes as income, they

302
00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:18.799
work for the government and their own cuts. If they

303
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:21.600
refer to taxes as a cost in their life, then

304
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:24.519
there they're Republicans and they work for a living. H

305
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:26.720
And every once in a while you can find a

306
00:16:26.720 --> 00:16:31.279
fake Republican who talks about losing money because of the

307
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:36.440
tax cut. Yeah, he is standing next to the government.

308
00:16:36.559 --> 00:16:40.240
When he talks about losing money. The government's losing money.

309
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:44.120
Everybody else is gaining money when you cut taxes. But

310
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:47.080
everyone when I mentioned that to somebody, they they almost

311
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:49.320
don't get it. They don't even hear themselves. They just

312
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:53.440
know which team they're on. And a tax cut is

313
00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:56.759
a lots of revenue, not a gain in income.

314
00:16:57.440 --> 00:17:00.240
They have to be nuts when they see all the billionaires,

315
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:04.799
the oligarchy tour, you know that Bernie Sanders talks about.

316
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:07.640
This just has to bust their heads wide open when

317
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:12.960
they see everyday Americans, you know, through their hard work

318
00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:18.799
and Moxie have become, you know, so affluent, and they

319
00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:20.839
got all that money and they don't have any And

320
00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:26.839
what congressman in the history of mankind has generated anything

321
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:31.160
of value like what Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have generated.

322
00:17:31.480 --> 00:17:35.960
Not to mention others, I think Jeff Bezos said something

323
00:17:36.119 --> 00:17:38.480
very important when somebody asked, well, when do you start

324
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:43.480
giving you away your money? And he said, I can't imagine.

325
00:17:43.960 --> 00:17:46.519
I don't know how to do something to give away

326
00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.880
a billion dollars that would be better for the country

327
00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:54.759
than to invest it in Amazon, to hire people, to

328
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:59.240
get people products sooner, to save time hours out of

329
00:17:59.279 --> 00:18:01.519
a day were they have to drive to working back.

330
00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:03.960
The more I can do that, the more I can

331
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:06.519
expand it. Every day i'm doing that, I'm making the

332
00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:09.640
American people better up. I can't think of a financial

333
00:18:09.640 --> 00:18:12.960
contribution I can make to a charity that would be

334
00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:15.279
as successful as that, because because I know what I'm

335
00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:18.400
exactly how the money is being spent inside my company

336
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.559
and the benefit to all Americans in lower costs. Uh

337
00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:25.319
And and unless time taken up by by living here

338
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:28.519
by shopping, nobody wants No man wants to spend a

339
00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:33.240
lot of time shopping, so you're freed up time. But uh,

340
00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:37.240
this is one where the Democrats spend a lot of

341
00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:43.799
time promoting envy and hatred of successful and uh, this

342
00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:47.440
is this happens around the world. That that that the

343
00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:50.480
Russian Communists didn't like the cool ox. What was a

344
00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.440
cool a farmer who owned some land as opposed to

345
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:55.480
a surf who worked on somebody else's. Then they were

346
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.799
they were They weren't exactly rich, but they owned their

347
00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:00.799
own land. And they would say the kool as the

348
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.039
reason you're poor is because of the because he has

349
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:06.519
land and you don't. Of course the comments didn't give anybody,

350
00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:13.799
they just stole the But but they play the envy card. Uh,

351
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:18.960
and you see it in bigotry. People go oh in Indonesia,

352
00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:21.960
they oh, the Chinese are you know, they are very

353
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:25.400
successful businessmen and women and then we should be mad

354
00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:28.559
at them and not like them. Also ethnically different. Uh,

355
00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:32.559
the Armenians around the Middle East are very successful. In

356
00:19:32.599 --> 00:19:35.359
people's I don't know, I don't like that. So it's

357
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:42.079
the Lebanese and Africa or in the Indians in uh

358
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:47.599
the place I was that U in South East Africa

359
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.880
are the are the guys, businessmen and women, the people

360
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:55.279
who buy sell stuff. People were mad at Jews because

361
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:58.200
Jewish Bank or all that stuff. The regarts are playing

362
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.960
into this envy thing and this racial and sometimes religious

363
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:04.839
hatred thing. It's really ugly what they do, but it's

364
00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:07.720
implet They have to do it to soften up the target.

365
00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:10.839
They have to get you to hate someone because he's

366
00:20:10.880 --> 00:20:14.519
ethnically different. There's some wrong religion and that's some sort

367
00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.200
of trick and how they get rich and and and

368
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:21.079
they they work on Saturdays, and they work on Saturdays.

369
00:20:21.079 --> 00:20:23.400
They get up at five o'clock in the morning while

370
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:27.240
you're sleeping till ten, right, and they're taking risk, they're

371
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:30.799
borrowing money from relatives and doing whatever they can NonStop

372
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:33.359
twenty four to seven. And now you're going to penalize

373
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:35.160
them for their merits.

374
00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:36.640
It takes a lot of time to get people to

375
00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:39.839
out contempt for this guys and to not like them,

376
00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:43.039
which is why it sometimes goes along with biggotree. But

377
00:20:43.400 --> 00:20:46.119
the Left does that so they can soften up the

378
00:20:46.119 --> 00:20:49.039
target and then say we're going to tax them, and

379
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:51.599
then people, well, it's not me. And I do know

380
00:20:51.680 --> 00:20:55.440
from Twitter that there's something wrong with that them. So

381
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:00.799
our job as Americans is to stand hand to hand

382
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:05.119
and say we're all the same. You want taxes, we

383
00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:07.200
will pay five percent, we'll pay four percent, but we're

384
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:09.359
not going to tax some people with a graduated income

385
00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:12.880
tax and not others. This was Karl Marx's list of

386
00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:17.039
ten things to be that would make communism communism the

387
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:21.640
Communist Manifesto Number two A graduated or progressive income tax.

388
00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:26.359
Graduated also known as progressive income even under Carl Marx's dates,

389
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:31.640
known as progressive. So they want that wisely, so you

390
00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:35.359
can divide people by class and loot some of them

391
00:21:35.519 --> 00:21:40.000
when you want to. And that is a very important thing.

392
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:45.480
Where you're seeing the country right now, they're twelve years ago,

393
00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:49.880
there were i'm sorry, six years ago, there were eight

394
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:55.200
states with no income talks. Today they're sixteen. We've doubled

395
00:21:55.240 --> 00:21:57.480
the number of states where they say we're not dividing

396
00:21:57.480 --> 00:21:59.720
people against each other. We're all going to pay the

397
00:21:59.720 --> 00:22:04.000
same rate. We're you know, we're looking at our friends

398
00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:09.319
in Mississippi did this in Louisiana and Georgia, they're on

399
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:10.759
their way that they haven't quite done it yet, but

400
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:17.240
they're on the way. To do it in South Carolina, Idaho, Utah, Arizona,

401
00:22:17.799 --> 00:22:21.279
Ohio most recently just a year ago. All of these

402
00:22:21.279 --> 00:22:25.519
states have said, Iowa, we reject this class envy thing.

403
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:27.839
Are now that they also said, and by the way,

404
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:30.160
we're going to zero, but we're going to start by

405
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:32.160
all getting to three or four or two, and then

406
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:34.519
we go down to zero from there because we're going

407
00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.359
to start treating people the same. And oh Kansas has

408
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:39.880
passed a law that will get them in a couple

409
00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:41.960
of years to go to flat rate tax as well.

410
00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:44.720
And we're looking at a number of other states where

411
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:47.119
they're trying to but they just haven't gotten it done yet.

412
00:22:47.200 --> 00:22:49.559
North Dakota's down to two rates. They want to go

413
00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:52.440
to one. Arkansas's got nine rates, but they're all next

414
00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:54.160
to each other. I don't know why they have lots

415
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:57.240
of little rates, but they want to go to one

416
00:22:57.319 --> 00:23:01.240
rate as well. So at the state level, I hope

417
00:23:01.279 --> 00:23:04.480
Washington's watching and listening. Sometimes I write the letters and

418
00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:06.720
talk to them and say, hey, look at what's going

419
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:09.640
on in the states. But we really are seeing at

420
00:23:09.640 --> 00:23:13.720
the state level in red states, a demand treats the

421
00:23:13.759 --> 00:23:16.480
same one rate, and there's a measure on the ballot

422
00:23:16.960 --> 00:23:22.480
in Michigan. In Massachusetts, the liberals there went to two rates.

423
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:24.839
They used to have one, they went to two. They

424
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:28.440
only won that by fifty one percent. Okay, So people

425
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:30.519
came back and said, we're going to take this from

426
00:23:30.559 --> 00:23:32.839
five to eight down to four, so everybody's going to

427
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:35.640
get a tax cut and it'll be flat. And they

428
00:23:35.680 --> 00:23:37.960
threw it off the ballot. They were so scared of it.

429
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:40.000
We're gonna come back in two years. But they came

430
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:44.440
up with this ridiculous reason that the Democratic secretary of

431
00:23:44.519 --> 00:23:47.160
State wrote a description of it, which is their job

432
00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:49.720
to do. And then the Supreme Court said, that's such

433
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:52.480
a poorly written description by the Democrat secretary of state,

434
00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:54.960
we throw it off the ballot. Not tell her to

435
00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:58.839
change the description to an accurate one, but we throw

436
00:23:58.839 --> 00:24:01.799
it off the ballot. And the guys up there said, well,

437
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:05.519
we'll get more signatures for a new one if you're

438
00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:07.839
they're not enough. It's up two years from now. They'll

439
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:12.240
be back. But even Massachusetts liberal Democrat Massachusetts wants to

440
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:14.599
go to a flat rate tax. And the elite knows it,

441
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:17.920
and they fear that so much that they cheat like that.

442
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.839
So obviously cheat in a non democratic manner in order

443
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:25.519
to stop people from being able to vote yes no

444
00:24:25.640 --> 00:24:26.440
on envy.

445
00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:30.359
The Democrats cheating. Can you imagine that I'm shocked in

we continue coming to you live from Maui, Hawaii, and

517
00:28:35.920 --> 00:28:38.359
I'm talking with the Manhattan based Fox News contributor clear

518
00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:43.400
across the world. It seems they're in New York. Deroy Murdoch. Deroy,

519
00:28:43.440 --> 00:28:45.240
how are we doing, buddy? Uh?

520
00:28:45.400 --> 00:28:46.920
Well, I'm a great Bill, not as well as you

521
00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:48.799
are in Hawaii. What a lovely place to spend part

522
00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:50.000
of your Summer's fantastic.

523
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:52.759
Yeah, it's a great time here with the family and

524
00:28:52.799 --> 00:28:54.599
the kids. It's been a long time coming. It's been

525
00:28:54.599 --> 00:28:57.400
a couple of years, but it's great to see him.

526
00:28:57.759 --> 00:29:00.160
You know, in a couple of years in these kiss

527
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:02.799
grow up so quick to roy as you know. I

528
00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:04.640
mean the last time they were here, I was taking

529
00:29:04.680 --> 00:29:07.920
them out golfing, and I mean, you know, and their

530
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:11.599
typical Hawaiian kids. I mean they're in the water all

531
00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:15.400
the time and body boarding, you know, surfing and all

532
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:18.400
that kind of stuff. It's just amazing. It's just such

533
00:29:18.400 --> 00:29:20.559
a delight, you know, I was sharing with somebody else.

534
00:29:20.599 --> 00:29:22.759
You know, when when you're around your your kids and

535
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:26.119
grandkids and you have moments like this, you just say, God,

536
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:29.559
you know what I could I could go right now

537
00:29:29.640 --> 00:29:31.640
and feel very fulfilled and satisfied.

538
00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:34.000
Well, you know, church, why you can, because, as you know,

539
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:36.799
these moments go by quickly and then we can get older.

540
00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:39.119
And one thing I found interesting about I mean children,

541
00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:41.440
my friends who do they're gigantic. I don't know if

542
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.039
kids are if they're drinking more milk or there's something

543
00:29:44.039 --> 00:29:45.960
to water supply. But I have a lot of friends,

544
00:29:46.039 --> 00:29:49.039
like college friends are about my height and they're kids,

545
00:29:49.079 --> 00:29:52.279
and women are all oftent taller than I am, and

546
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:55.039
guys are like seven feet tall. I mean you could,

547
00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:57.000
you know, like Baron Trump. I mean, that guy's almost like,

548
00:29:57.039 --> 00:30:00.599
oh my god, the NBA six eight sixty nine. Yeah,

549
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:04.640
it's crazy. So you know we're gonna be a species

550
00:30:04.680 --> 00:30:05.640
of giants very soon.

551
00:30:05.920 --> 00:30:07.559
Well, I guess I don't know what's in the water,

552
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:10.400
but I'm with you, I agree. Look at a lot

553
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:12.720
to catch up on since you and I last talked.

554
00:30:12.759 --> 00:30:15.039
And of course, the big surprise over the weekend was

555
00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:18.079
the passing of Lindsey Graham. You knew him, right, I

556
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:18.880
mean you never.

557
00:30:18.799 --> 00:30:19.279
Met the man.

558
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:21.279
I mean I saw him on No, I had not

559
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:24.559
saw him on on TV. And then you know, all

560
00:30:24.599 --> 00:30:29.319
sorts of political contexts for many years, and I know,

561
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:31.839
certainly working at Fox News, he was on screen all

562
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:34.279
the time. He's on Hannity, he'd be on Jessein Waters,

563
00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:37.200
he would be on our weekend shows. The guy was

564
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:40.079
an excellent spokesman for generally our side most of the

565
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:43.039
time and was definitely out there making the case, making

566
00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:46.839
the argument, talking in simple ways that regular folks could understand.

567
00:30:47.160 --> 00:30:49.160
And it was one of the great advocates for you know,

568
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.599
for most of the Mega and America First and Trump agenda.

569
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:54.440
And what a shock when I.

570
00:30:54.440 --> 00:30:57.880
Was actually and in the newsroom onnth Saturday night Sunday

571
00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:00.480
morning about two am or so, and a couple of

572
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.039
colleagues might say, hey, Lindsay Graham just died, Oh my god,

573
00:31:03.200 --> 00:31:05.079
And I said really, I said, yep, I don't know

574
00:31:05.079 --> 00:31:07.200
what happened. Eventually we learned it was a torny order

575
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:09.680
and with the Richt order. I mean, there's an amount

576
00:31:09.680 --> 00:31:12.000
of CPR that's going to bring you back from that, unfortunately.

577
00:31:12.240 --> 00:31:16.519
But I think, yeah, everyone liked dislike Lindsay Graham left

578
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:18.519
middle right. I think the main emotion was shocked, Oh

579
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:21.119
my god, I can't believe this guy left and went

580
00:31:21.160 --> 00:31:22.880
so quickly right.

581
00:31:23.079 --> 00:31:25.359
And the thing is is that, you know, for all

582
00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:27.119
that he did and try to do in terms of

583
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:30.200
crossing the aisle and trying to you know, make the

584
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.319
Senate work, even when he was in the minority, he

585
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:37.359
has been one of those fundamental and consistent players to

586
00:31:37.440 --> 00:31:41.279
try to find middle ground. And but the left, of course,

587
00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:44.000
the radical left there, so you know, off the off

588
00:31:44.000 --> 00:31:47.559
the Richter scale here that you know, they're talking of

589
00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:50.000
him like as if he was Hitler incarnate, you know.

590
00:31:51.240 --> 00:31:53.160
Yeah, and you know, I've seen some of these nasty

591
00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:54.720
comments they made about him, and they didn't even wait

592
00:31:54.799 --> 00:31:56.559
until the guy was in the bury the ground. The

593
00:31:56.920 --> 00:32:00.319
attacks started a couple hours after he was after died,

594
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:02.640
and they're calling him all sorts of names and saying

595
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:05.000
it was a warmonger and all this sort of thing.

596
00:32:05.000 --> 00:32:07.359
And you think they either could be quiet for a

597
00:32:07.440 --> 00:32:09.400
day or two or you know, try to find something

598
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:11.640
gracious to say about him, like, okay, well I didn't

599
00:32:11.640 --> 00:32:13.759
agree with him, but he was a very good advocate

600
00:32:13.759 --> 00:32:14.319
for his cause.

601
00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:14.960
That sort of thing.

602
00:32:15.000 --> 00:32:19.440
Now, this instant uh acrimony, instant bitterness, and this is

603
00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:21.680
the difference between the left and the right. People and

604
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:24.359
right either find something positive to say about somebody or

605
00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:26.880
you know, keep your big mouth shut. And the people

606
00:32:26.880 --> 00:32:29.279
on the left just just started with the uh, you know,

607
00:32:29.359 --> 00:32:31.400
the incoming uh you know, while the guy was still

608
00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:33.839
you know, probably in the hospital waiting to be taking

609
00:32:33.839 --> 00:32:34.640
a medical examiner.

610
00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:38.599
It's just truly disgraceful, unfortunately, very typical of the left today.

611
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:41.000
Well, of course, you know, as a supporter of Israel,

612
00:32:41.079 --> 00:32:43.839
that's a pox on him right away. And yeah, he

613
00:32:43.920 --> 00:32:48.440
defended that, he defended Brett Kavanaugh, uh, you know, in

614
00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:52.240
the uh, in the hearings, the confirmation hearings, uh and

615
00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:57.359
and said very plainly that the Democrats were more interested

616
00:32:57.440 --> 00:33:00.000
in power and control, and that, in so many words,

617
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:04.799
he wished that they did not ever attain it. Yeah.

618
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.119
Well, I think one of his great moments was during

619
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:10.079
the whole Kavanaugh circus when he came out and said

620
00:33:10.119 --> 00:33:15.079
that people who were attacking him were completely unfair, that

621
00:33:15.160 --> 00:33:17.599
they were making up this whole story about this woman

622
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:20.799
blazy Ford, claiming that he had molested her or arrassed her,

623
00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:22.519
raped her back when they were in high school.

624
00:33:22.960 --> 00:33:25.839
This woman couldn't name the location, she couldn't.

625
00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:26.200
Name the date.

626
00:33:26.279 --> 00:33:28.240
I don't think she could name the month. And then

627
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:29.799
she said, well, you know, when it was all left,

628
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:31.440
she all done, she left the party, and you know,

629
00:33:31.759 --> 00:33:34.599
basically Ubert at home, a cabin at home, not apparently

630
00:33:34.599 --> 00:33:37.000
not a lot of cabs cruising around that part of Maryland.

631
00:33:37.000 --> 00:33:38.119
I guess where they grew up.

632
00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:42.359
Her story didn't hold any water, and yet the Democrats

633
00:33:42.400 --> 00:33:45.799
were running around as if Kavanaugh or some sort of

634
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:47.960
a serial rapist, and Graham had had it.

635
00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:49.839
He just let him have it. It just attacked them

636
00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:52.599
in the Judiciary committee room. It was the most.

637
00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:59.440
Effective and sort of robust engagement or statement or anything

638
00:33:59.480 --> 00:34:02.200
I've intervened is what I'm looking for that I've ever

639
00:34:02.200 --> 00:34:04.400
heard from Lindsay Graham. And a lot of people looked like, Wow,

640
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:05.559
where did that guy come from?

641
00:34:05.839 --> 00:34:07.079
And he really bossed me.

642
00:34:07.079 --> 00:34:09.159
He was very much attached to the hip to John McCain,

643
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:12.840
who passed away I think was around twenty fourteen ash

644
00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:16.480
or so. And after that, I think he really came

645
00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:18.480
into his own even more so, especially at the time

646
00:34:18.519 --> 00:34:21.599
of the of the Kavanaugh hearings right exactly.

647
00:34:21.880 --> 00:34:25.800
And the thing is also in you know, relationship to

648
00:34:26.320 --> 00:34:32.920
the Kavanaugh hearings, is that you know, Lindsay you know,

649
00:34:33.119 --> 00:34:36.800
believed Kavanaugh. I mean, his story was so credible. I mean,

650
00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:38.639
talk about picking the wrong guy. I mean, here's a

651
00:34:38.639 --> 00:34:41.960
guy that had calendars, you know it all the way

652
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:44.679
back when he was in school and you know kind

653
00:34:44.679 --> 00:34:47.280
of deal and and here Blazey Ford is putting up

654
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:49.840
this hallow story that could hold no water. And it

655
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:52.000
was clear. And I thought the Republicans did a great

656
00:34:52.079 --> 00:34:57.239
job in interviewing her, you know, not by the you know,

657
00:34:57.559 --> 00:35:00.039
each senator, but they had a proxy come in and

658
00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:05.079
do the interviews. You'll recall it was a woman, and uh,

659
00:35:05.519 --> 00:35:09.239
you know you could tell that Blazy Ford was you

660
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:13.639
know that her, you know her you know, indictments or

661
00:35:13.639 --> 00:35:16.639
her accusations were so hollow. And then of course she

662
00:35:16.719 --> 00:35:20.239
had said she had nothing to do with anything with

663
00:35:20.840 --> 00:35:24.679
you know, birth control or or the abortion issue and

664
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:26.480
all that, and then you find out later she works

665
00:35:26.519 --> 00:35:29.199
for an abortiveation company.

666
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:30.880
And how about that? Isn't that interesting?

667
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:31.960
Yeah, and.

668
00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:35.199
There were no consequences for her. I mean it was

669
00:35:35.280 --> 00:35:37.079
very clear to me that I was just going to

670
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:40.159
bring it exactly. Either made this stuff up or imagined

671
00:35:40.199 --> 00:35:45.079
it or loosened into it, and no, no repercussions, no consequences,

672
00:35:45.159 --> 00:35:47.719
no anything. Uh, this woman just got away with I think,

673
00:35:47.800 --> 00:35:51.519
just basically come up with totally fake charges and nothing happened.

674
00:35:51.639 --> 00:35:54.760
A lot of that happens, unfortunately a lot of these accusers,

675
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:57.480
Like in the Ducal Cross case. Uh, this woman who

676
00:35:57.559 --> 00:35:59.920
was in Rolling Stones saying she'd been raped at UV,

677
00:36:01.079 --> 00:36:02.800
that story didn't hold it all. She was saying that

678
00:36:02.840 --> 00:36:05.000
she escaped, ran down a fire escape at the frat house.

679
00:36:05.000 --> 00:36:06.960
Well there's no fire escape at the frat house. That

680
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:09.679
doesn't exist. And she said all that somebody apparently, I guess,

681
00:36:09.719 --> 00:36:12.039
broke a coffee table. There was broken glass all over

682
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:15.079
the place, and these fraternity brothers raped her on top

683
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:17.239
of broken glass, and who does that? So that the

684
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:19.280
story didn't hold up? And then I guess it turned

685
00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:20.639
out that she made it up. And I don't think

686
00:36:20.639 --> 00:36:23.199
anything ever happened to her. These people just, oh, well, whatever,

687
00:36:23.199 --> 00:36:24.400
it's cool, I have a good day.

688
00:36:24.440 --> 00:36:28.039
Buy we look at the impact, look at the impact

689
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:31.480
on these young men in their lives and their education.

690
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:35.840
I think immediately they were suspended some maybe and expelled

691
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:38.480
that I don't remember the exact details, but I remember

692
00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:41.480
it was horrendous, especially after it was all said and done,

693
00:36:41.480 --> 00:36:44.000
that she was, you know, she'd made the story up

694
00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:45.840
very much so.

695
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:48.280
And in the case of the Duke lacrosse players, I

696
00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:50.960
know somebody who tangential link.

697
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:52.400
It's the friend of a friend of a friend kind

698
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:52.639
of thing.

699
00:36:52.920 --> 00:36:54.760
And my understanding is one of these guys moved back

700
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:57.239
to New York and was so distraught about this that

701
00:36:57.320 --> 00:36:59.280
he just crawled in a bottle and just developed a

702
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:02.239
really bad alcohol problem because he was so heartbroken and

703
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:04.679
did nothing wrong and was just looked down upon by

704
00:37:04.679 --> 00:37:06.719
everyone who saw him as some kind of a rapist

705
00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:09.440
when nothing like that happened. And apparently the guy either

706
00:37:09.480 --> 00:37:11.599
you know, started drinking or kept drinking and didn't stop.

707
00:37:11.679 --> 00:37:13.440
So this is the kind of thing that can happen

708
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:16.800
to people when they're put in these horrible situations when

709
00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:21.280
they do nothing wrong, they don't engage in any inappropriate activity,

710
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:24.159
and people make stuff up and they never you know,

711
00:37:24.159 --> 00:37:27.000
they're never able to scrub the taint off of them

712
00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:27.960
for things in which they.

713
00:37:27.960 --> 00:37:31.920
Never engage, which is grotesquely unfair. Yeah, the the things.

714
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:34.920
In closing out this segment here, I just wanted to

715
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:38.239
go back on Lindsey Graham. My wife was telling me

716
00:37:38.320 --> 00:37:43.079
that Lindsey Graham, when they checked his finances, he had

717
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:47.679
a I don't even think two million dollars. This is

718
00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:50.639
somebody who had been in Congress in the Senate all

719
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:54.400
these years, and unlike so many of these other elected

720
00:37:54.400 --> 00:37:59.039
officials who leave or die with a bank account that

721
00:37:59.159 --> 00:38:02.159
a choke, a horror, Lindsay Graham had a little over

722
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:03.880
a million dollars. Are you kidding me?

723
00:38:04.599 --> 00:38:07.159
Well, I guess that tells us that, you know, like

724
00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:09.440
the guy or not, he wasn't a thief. You know,

725
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:11.000
you're right about these people who come in. You know,

726
00:38:11.039 --> 00:38:14.679
the Obama's a great example. They came in with basically nothing.

727
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:17.599
I think some income from his books, and I think

728
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:20.119
they're worth a quarter of a billion dollars now million,

729
00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:20.960
two hundred and fifty.

730
00:38:21.559 --> 00:38:24.000
Nancy Pelosi, of course, is the poster girl for this thing.

731
00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:26.960
She's I guess, making what one hundred and eighty two

732
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:30.159
hundred thousand dollars as the former Speaker of the House.

733
00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:33.559
And she's got what is it, five residences, she's got

734
00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:36.719
one or two vineyards, living really high on the hog.

735
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:39.400
Yeah, thank you very much, Thank you very much.

736
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:40.079
Way to people.

737
00:38:40.360 --> 00:38:41.039
I love a got it.

738
00:38:42.519 --> 00:38:45.159
This report is sponsored by IBM. A new study from

739
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:48.159
the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals a growing disconnect

740
00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:52.280
between executive perceptions of AI progress and employee experience. Executives

741
00:38:52.320 --> 00:38:54.840
report AI driven role change at twice the rate employees

742
00:38:54.880 --> 00:38:57.719
experience it. Eighty one percent say AI skills are rewarded.

743
00:38:57.800 --> 00:39:00.320
He had forty three percent of employees lack employer AI

744
00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:04.039
training and fifty percent say AI obscures contributions. A partnernaire

IBM's Chief Talent, Leadership and Culture Officer.

746
00:39:07.000 --> 00:39:09.440
The organizations that will lead in this at up won't

747
00:39:09.519 --> 00:39:11.719
just be the ones with the best AI, They'll be

748
00:39:11.760 --> 00:39:14.360
the ones that invest equally in their workforce, making it

749
00:39:14.440 --> 00:39:17.840
clear when to trust or challenges, system strengthening how managers

750
00:39:17.920 --> 00:39:22.000
coach decisions, and rewarding employees for using AI responsibly, not

751
00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:23.199
just using it quickly.

752
00:39:23.320 --> 00:39:25.800
The study finds that organizations most likely to stand out

753
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:29.800
redesign workflows enable managers to coach effectively, clarify decision making,

754
00:39:29.960 --> 00:39:33.400
and align incentives. Alongside AI adoption, these organizations could see

755
00:39:33.440 --> 00:39:35.559
up to seventy three percent higher revenue growth and an

756
00:39:35.599 --> 00:39:38.880
eleven percent operating margin advantage over their peers. To learn more,

813
00:42:44.920 --> 00:42:47.679
And we're talking with the New York based man at

814
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:52.360
based box Neeers Control there, Deroy Murdoch. Deroy, you know

815
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:54.920
you and I've been chewing on this forever, it seems,

816
00:42:54.960 --> 00:42:57.800
and here we are. It's the song that will never end.

817
00:42:58.199 --> 00:43:02.079
And that's the United States verse is Iran. Trump is

818
00:43:02.119 --> 00:43:06.000
again putting firepower there, and I think he just has

819
00:43:06.079 --> 00:43:08.840
to just close the deal once and for all with them.

820
00:43:09.400 --> 00:43:12.800
And meanwhile, and I think what we're further encouraging him

821
00:43:13.119 --> 00:43:17.639
is that President Ji has has told has told Iran

822
00:43:18.119 --> 00:43:22.239
you cannot, you know, create interference there in the Strait

823
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:22.840
of Hormuz.

824
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:24.719
Well that's great.

825
00:43:24.719 --> 00:43:27.639
Maybe maybe the I toldas will listen to Shijinping and

826
00:43:27.679 --> 00:43:30.440
the Chinese government, which is one of their biggest clients.

827
00:43:30.440 --> 00:43:32.320
You know, so much of their oil goes to China,

828
00:43:32.360 --> 00:43:34.360
as you well know, so in the closest straight of hormves.

829
00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:36.760
That just makes life miserable for the Chinese, so I

830
00:43:36.760 --> 00:43:40.239
think are the biggest recipients of Iranian oil. But you know,

831
00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:41.920
I thought this thing had wound down, that we're going

832
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:45.400
to have some kind of a peace agreement or ceasefire whatever,

833
00:43:45.480 --> 00:43:47.960
And then the Iranians didn't really cease fire. They just

834
00:43:48.000 --> 00:43:50.800
slowed it down sort of, you know, slow down fire

835
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:53.039
supposed to cease fire, and then it of course heated

836
00:43:53.119 --> 00:43:53.480
back up.

837
00:43:53.480 --> 00:43:55.119
And now apparently we're back in the.

838
00:43:55.079 --> 00:44:02.079
Blockade aspect of this kind of this com and the Iranians,

839
00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:03.599
I guess, going to try again to close the straight

840
00:44:03.639 --> 00:44:05.000
on our moves, and they just don't seem to learn

841
00:44:05.039 --> 00:44:07.440
any matter. So we may have to teach them some

842
00:44:07.480 --> 00:44:09.639
more manners yet again. And I hope we wrap this

843
00:44:09.719 --> 00:44:11.679
up soon because people last thing people need is an

844
00:44:11.679 --> 00:44:13.280
increase in energy prices.

845
00:44:13.440 --> 00:44:15.360
Well, I've been saying you got to send in the Marines,

846
00:44:16.199 --> 00:44:18.239
to send in the Marines, you know, get it done,

847
00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:20.880
get it over with. I know people are upset, they

848
00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:23.400
don't want boots on the ground or do whatever, but hey,

849
00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:26.760
look at you know, we're dragging this thing out. They

850
00:44:26.800 --> 00:44:30.639
continue to lie. I mean, there's what truth What true

851
00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:34.039
statement have they made and followed up on? Deroy I

852
00:44:34.320 --> 00:44:35.119
can't think of one.

853
00:44:36.320 --> 00:44:39.760
I can't either. These people are grotesquely dishonest. You know,

854
00:44:39.880 --> 00:44:41.360
that's one of the biggest.

855
00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:43.199
Fears I have is that they don't seem to agree

856
00:44:43.199 --> 00:44:46.000
to or don't seem to keep their word on any agreement.

857
00:44:46.039 --> 00:44:48.400
So any agreement we signed with them is probably it's

858
00:44:48.440 --> 00:44:51.559
so fact they're going to be violated. So I guess

859
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:53.480
you just need to neutralize the point where they're just

860
00:44:53.679 --> 00:44:56.239
unable to respond at all. So I guess I guess

861
00:44:56.280 --> 00:44:59.920
that means more ordnance from above, more you know, more

862
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:02.679
more metal coming down from the skies, until these people

863
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:05.360
just don't have the ability to respond and cause anybody

864
00:45:05.440 --> 00:45:05.800
in grief.

865
00:45:06.400 --> 00:45:08.719
You know, durr, here we are two years has been

866
00:45:08.719 --> 00:45:12.199
two years already since Butler, right, and the attempted assassination

867
00:45:12.280 --> 00:45:15.480
of the President's amazing. Think about it, and he admits,

868
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:18.400
he says, yes, you know, by God's grace he was

869
00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:21.559
saved and praised that God will continue to look out

870
00:45:21.559 --> 00:45:25.639
for him. The Iotola has put it out a fatah

871
00:45:25.719 --> 00:45:29.480
or put out a you know, a kill statement on

872
00:45:29.599 --> 00:45:32.519
Donald Trump, and so you know, he's made it clear.

873
00:45:33.079 --> 00:45:36.079
The iotola has made it clear that they want Donald

874
00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:39.320
Trump gone. Of course, like that's no big surprise, and

875
00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:41.360
you know here it is. You think about all that

876
00:45:41.400 --> 00:45:44.280
Donald Trump has been dealing with. He's dealing with, you know,

877
00:45:44.840 --> 00:45:48.239
this hot mess in Iran in the Middle East, everything

878
00:45:48.239 --> 00:45:53.559
that's going on there, attempt at assassinations and a Democratic

879
00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:56.920
party and even some members of his own party. It's like,

880
00:45:57.079 --> 00:45:58.760
I mean, every once in a while, I go, why

881
00:45:58.840 --> 00:46:01.519
is he doing this? But at the same time, thank

882
00:46:01.559 --> 00:46:04.239
god he's doing it, because if not Donald Trump, then.

883
00:46:04.079 --> 00:46:07.360
Who well certainly, I mean it would have been if

884
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:09.280
not him, base on the last selection have been Kamala

885
00:46:09.320 --> 00:46:12.519
Harris and imagine us being in this conflicence that ran

886
00:46:12.599 --> 00:46:14.519
right now with Kamala Harrison charge rather than Donald J.

887
00:46:14.639 --> 00:46:14.960
Trump.

888
00:46:15.800 --> 00:46:18.239
I think they would have all the hold all the cards,

889
00:46:18.239 --> 00:46:19.679
that have all the leverage, and we would be in

890
00:46:19.679 --> 00:46:24.440
a position of credible weakness in peril. And absolutely, I

891
00:46:24.519 --> 00:46:28.079
think Trump is incredible in terms of his energy, his focus.

892
00:46:29.119 --> 00:46:31.599
The man is just unsinkable. And I think even his

893
00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:33.280
critics have got to say, look for a guy of

894
00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:36.039
eighty years old who's able to work pretty much around

895
00:46:36.079 --> 00:46:37.639
the clock, and he's, you know, three in the morning,

896
00:46:37.679 --> 00:46:39.320
he's still at it, and then he's back at it

897
00:46:39.360 --> 00:46:42.760
again after an hour two of sleep. It's really quite astonishing,

898
00:46:42.880 --> 00:46:45.159
and I'm sure that the left wishes they had somebody

899
00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:48.440
with that level of energy and stamina that he does.

900
00:46:49.079 --> 00:46:51.440
And look what he's doing in terms of his vision

901
00:46:51.800 --> 00:46:55.639
for America about having a Golden Age for America. You know,

902
00:46:55.800 --> 00:47:00.880
over nineteen trillion dollars of foreign investment, what he done

903
00:47:00.960 --> 00:47:05.159
in terms of opening space for artificial intelligence, the races

904
00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:08.880
on the space and everything else. And you know, meanwhile,

905
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:12.159
the Democrats are coming up because they're so adversarial and

906
00:47:12.760 --> 00:47:17.079
Trump Arrangements syndrome. I think they're gonna it's gonna require

907
00:47:17.320 --> 00:47:21.199
decades of therapy for them because they're so brain damaged

908
00:47:21.239 --> 00:47:24.039
over Donald Trump. They can't even think straight. Because even

909
00:47:24.039 --> 00:47:26.440
when they try and articulate, you know, some sort of

910
00:47:26.440 --> 00:47:30.639
political position, it's like, what are you taking lessons from

911
00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:31.519
Kamala Harris?

912
00:47:33.119 --> 00:47:35.199
I mean everything non.

913
00:47:35.119 --> 00:47:37.280
Sequitured and nonsensical.

914
00:47:38.199 --> 00:47:40.400
Yeah, I mean a couple of examples of this.

915
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:43.440
Look, if you don't like Trump's program, grade, offer an

916
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:46.719
alternative or go out in protest. But people who don't

917
00:47:46.800 --> 00:47:48.599
like Trump decided to take it out of the reflecting

918
00:47:48.599 --> 00:47:52.159
pool and cut up the plastic lighting they put into tight.

919
00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:54.440
I think it's forty five thousand gallons of water a

920
00:47:54.519 --> 00:47:55.800
day from leaking.

921
00:47:56.960 --> 00:47:58.599
You can't have that. You can't have Trump fixed the

922
00:47:58.719 --> 00:48:00.920
reflecting pool. So you got to have people go out

923
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:02.320
and tall the thing to pieces.

924
00:48:02.800 --> 00:48:04.800
Another thing I remember seeing a few weeks ago, Trump

925
00:48:04.880 --> 00:48:07.599
was coming down the stairs on Air Force one and

926
00:48:07.639 --> 00:48:09.880
he was holding on the railing and very carefully going

927
00:48:09.920 --> 00:48:12.519
down one step at a time, and they're like, oh,

928
00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:14.440
look at Trump piece. So oh they can't move, he's

929
00:48:14.480 --> 00:48:17.599
just crawling down the staircase. Now, if he bounded down

930
00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:19.760
the staircase quickly and didn't hold a handle and say,

931
00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:21.239
oh my god, he's so reckless, you could fall down

932
00:48:21.239 --> 00:48:23.360
and hurt himself out there. So there's nothing this guy

933
00:48:23.360 --> 00:48:25.960
can do to make these people happy, even the way

934
00:48:25.960 --> 00:48:27.960
he walks down the stairs of Air Force one.

935
00:48:28.480 --> 00:48:32.639
Right, yeah, exactly. And of course you know they're just

936
00:48:32.880 --> 00:48:36.480
losing their minds. I mean, here it is. They're a

937
00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:39.719
mess in Maine. They knew this was coming, you know,

938
00:48:39.880 --> 00:48:44.639
And and the socialist democratic socialist movement has has commandeered

939
00:48:44.679 --> 00:48:47.320
that party. And then here it is with this new

940
00:48:47.360 --> 00:48:50.039
industry and all these potentials that are coming up. And

941
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:53.199
of course you're writing about this and it'll be released

942
00:48:53.599 --> 00:48:57.519
hopefully later on today regarding the data centers, and maybe

943
00:48:57.559 --> 00:48:59.119
you can give us a summary of that.

944
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:03.440
Deroy absolutely. Well. You know, the left has been attacking data.

945
00:49:03.199 --> 00:49:06.960
Centers and AI in general, and data centers in particular

946
00:49:06.960 --> 00:49:09.760
over the last probably yearish or so. And I think

947
00:49:09.800 --> 00:49:11.800
what this is basically is the new global warming, of

948
00:49:11.840 --> 00:49:14.119
the new so called climate change. You don't hear them

949
00:49:14.119 --> 00:49:15.920
talking about very much, so I think they're looking at

950
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:18.280
this and thinking, if we attack that and shut that down,

951
00:49:19.119 --> 00:49:21.039
this will slow down the economy and hurt the America,

952
00:49:21.039 --> 00:49:21.519
which is what a.

953
00:49:21.519 --> 00:49:22.519
Lot of left wants to do.

954
00:49:22.800 --> 00:49:25.360
So they've jumped on this new hobby horse, and they're

955
00:49:25.360 --> 00:49:28.280
having some victories, I must say. In Monterey Park, California,

956
00:49:28.559 --> 00:49:31.639
they had a vote on June second this year and

957
00:49:31.760 --> 00:49:34.400
they voted to have a permanent one or two years

958
00:49:34.400 --> 00:49:37.280
permanent ban on data centers. That passed eighty six to

959
00:49:37.360 --> 00:49:40.400
fourteen eighty six percent, yes, fourteen percent, no. Nothing Ever,

960
00:49:40.400 --> 00:49:42.639
passed this country by eighty six percent, so this is

961
00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:43.360
quite something.

962
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:45.639
And one of the arguments they make is, oh my god,

963
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:47.280
all that data centers are going to chew up all

964
00:49:47.280 --> 00:49:47.800
of our water.

965
00:49:47.840 --> 00:49:51.880
This is terrible, we'll all dehydrate. An organization called Unleashed

966
00:49:51.880 --> 00:49:54.639
Prosperity took a look at this and the fact is

967
00:49:54.639 --> 00:49:57.719
that the data centers do use per year seventeen point

968
00:49:57.800 --> 00:49:59.000
four billion gallons of water.

969
00:49:59.039 --> 00:50:02.599
That's a lot of water. Point four billion gallons of water.

970
00:50:02.880 --> 00:50:06.320
Well, yep, you know, as they say, compared to what, well,

971
00:50:06.360 --> 00:50:10.280
compared to water melons. Watermelons to raise watermelons this country,

972
00:50:10.440 --> 00:50:13.119
we use fifty two billion gallons. That's three times more.

973
00:50:13.679 --> 00:50:15.960
If you play golf, you like golf courses, we use

974
00:50:16.000 --> 00:50:18.079
five hundred and thirty one billion gallons of water on

975
00:50:18.239 --> 00:50:20.880
golf courses. That's thirty one times more water than we

976
00:50:20.960 --> 00:50:24.000
use for data centers. And if you have corn with

977
00:50:24.039 --> 00:50:26.920
your dinner, you have ethanol in your car, which is

978
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:30.079
based on a corn that uses three point nine trillion

979
00:50:30.119 --> 00:50:32.280
gallons of water. That's two hundred twenty five times more

980
00:50:32.360 --> 00:50:33.840
water than the data centers.

981
00:50:34.159 --> 00:50:35.039
And then the big hog.

982
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:39.079
It's funny should say hog because it's really tenny benefits cows.

983
00:50:39.199 --> 00:50:43.760
But alfalfa hay. Alfalfa hay uses six point zero three

984
00:50:43.880 --> 00:50:47.039
trillion gallons of water. That's three hundred and forty six

985
00:50:47.480 --> 00:50:49.920
almost three hundred and fifty times more water than the

986
00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:52.800
data centers use. So yeah, data centers use a lot

987
00:50:52.840 --> 00:50:55.239
of water, but compared to all these other things we

988
00:50:55.280 --> 00:50:59.840
take for granted, hay, corn water in your lawn, golf courses,

989
00:51:00.000 --> 00:51:02.880
dolling pools, it uses a whole lot less. And I

990
00:51:02.920 --> 00:51:05.679
really think Unleashed Prosperity did a great job of I

991
00:51:05.719 --> 00:51:08.119
think completely debunking this oh my god, the water's going

992
00:51:08.119 --> 00:51:11.320
to vanish argument just by showing the comparison between what

993
00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:16.000
the data centers use and what we use for swimming pools, watermelons, almonds,

994
00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:17.199
way way, way less.

995
00:51:17.360 --> 00:51:19.159
And I think that argument at this point has been

996
00:51:19.199 --> 00:51:20.079
completely demolished.

997
00:51:20.639 --> 00:51:24.400
Yeah, but here they go so unprepared to debate this,

998
00:51:24.760 --> 00:51:27.480
and in Monterey, like you said eighty six to fourteen,

999
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:31.280
it's like, you fix the deal. I mean, you prejudice

1000
00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:34.840
the information with the people and convince them to this

1001
00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:38.480
level that they would basically shoot themselves in the foot. Now,

1002
00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:42.559
remind people deroy why data centers. Why are they so

1003
00:51:42.599 --> 00:51:49.039
significant in this current environment you know now today and going.

1004
00:51:48.800 --> 00:51:52.800
Forward, well, data centers, I think a really good analogy

1005
00:51:52.840 --> 00:51:55.920
is that data centers basically are the AI revolution, with

1006
00:51:56.000 --> 00:51:58.960
steel mills worthy the industrial revolution. These are basically the

1007
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:04.480
factories that use data, analyze data, turn data into things

1008
00:52:04.480 --> 00:52:06.039
we like. You know, when you if you have a

1009
00:52:06.039 --> 00:52:09.239
cell phone, you look at pictures of your friends, your family,

1010
00:52:09.480 --> 00:52:11.559
your vacation, your grandparents, whatever it is.

1011
00:52:12.039 --> 00:52:13.840
Those pictures don't sit inside your phone.

1012
00:52:13.880 --> 00:52:17.440
Those pictures are sitting on data centers around the country,

1013
00:52:17.599 --> 00:52:19.199
and all your phone does is connect to them so

1014
00:52:19.239 --> 00:52:21.559
you can see them. If you go on Amazon and

1015
00:52:21.599 --> 00:52:24.519
buy yourself some new shoes or a new camera, or

1016
00:52:24.519 --> 00:52:27.719
a book or whatever, those are, all those transactions are

1017
00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:30.920
happening on data centers all around the country. So if

1018
00:52:30.920 --> 00:52:33.280
you use the internet at all, you engage in e commerce,

1019
00:52:33.360 --> 00:52:36.039
you buy anything online, you're.

1020
00:52:35.480 --> 00:52:40.039
Using data centers. So this is something is completely.

1021
00:52:39.599 --> 00:52:42.639
Absolutely central to what we do these days in terms

1022
00:52:42.639 --> 00:52:44.599
of how we use the Internet in our lives. And

1023
00:52:44.679 --> 00:52:47.400
if we shut the data centers down, good luck finding

1024
00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:49.639
a place to put your family photos and pictures of

1025
00:52:49.679 --> 00:52:53.920
your friends. Good luck buying stuff online. Good luck dealing

1026
00:52:53.960 --> 00:52:56.000
with things like you know, going on kayak to book

1027
00:52:56.199 --> 00:52:59.320
flights or hotel rooms that sort of thing. All these

1028
00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:01.599
things that we do online on the internet and involved

1029
00:53:01.639 --> 00:53:04.000
data centers. And this is a positive thing. This is

1030
00:53:04.000 --> 00:53:05.920
a good thing. And in this article I'm writing, which

1031
00:53:05.920 --> 00:53:08.480
should be on Daily Signal within the next day or two,

1032
00:53:08.920 --> 00:53:12.599
and elsewhere, I really tried the AI companies and the

1033
00:53:12.639 --> 00:53:17.000
data center companies in particular. They are being hammered by politicians,

1034
00:53:17.039 --> 00:53:20.159
by activists, by people who hate them, and their response

1035
00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:25.000
is quieter than crickets. There's no response that they maybe

1036
00:53:25.039 --> 00:53:28.000
think if they just keep quiet and hid under their desks,

1037
00:53:28.119 --> 00:53:30.400
the boogeyman will go away. The boogeyman is sitting there

1038
00:53:30.679 --> 00:53:33.880
with a monkey wrench ready to bash their heads in.

1039
00:53:34.320 --> 00:53:37.119
And these people like Bernie Sanders is talking about fifty

1040
00:53:37.119 --> 00:53:43.480
percent nationalization of the AI companies. AOC and Bernie Sanders

1041
00:53:43.480 --> 00:53:47.360
have introduced a federal moratorium on data centers. There's a

1042
00:53:47.360 --> 00:53:50.880
group that tracks all these moratory around the country. There

1043
00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:53.119
are one hundred and twenty seven of them in various

1044
00:53:53.119 --> 00:53:56.440
communities across the US and forty different states, including eleven

1045
00:53:56.440 --> 00:54:00.920
plate jurisdictions with permanent bands on data centers is very serious,

1046
00:54:01.400 --> 00:54:03.480
and I guess these are basically a bunch of you know,

1047
00:54:04.360 --> 00:54:07.320
tech nerd types who don't really understand that they're being

1048
00:54:07.440 --> 00:54:09.960
that they're under fire, and they're not responding there. I

1049
00:54:09.960 --> 00:54:13.199
mean literally, I've never seen an ad saying, hey, here's

1050
00:54:13.199 --> 00:54:14.360
a good idea, here's why.

1051
00:54:14.159 --> 00:54:15.800
This data center is going to make your life better.

1052
00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:18.280
You do see some ads for AI companies, but they're

1053
00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:22.480
very jargony, kind of kind of like coder talk, like

1054
00:54:22.519 --> 00:54:25.760
whatever people who do, and they talk to each other

1055
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:28.400
in these weird phrases that none of us understand. They

1056
00:54:28.719 --> 00:54:32.480
desperately need get involved, get engaged in this discussion and

1057
00:54:32.559 --> 00:54:35.719
talk in ways that regular people can understand as to

1058
00:54:35.760 --> 00:54:38.039
what the promises of AI it's going to make our

1059
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:41.199
lives better. Yeah, there may be some impact on employment,

1060
00:54:41.239 --> 00:54:43.039
but we have the same problem when we went from

1061
00:54:43.360 --> 00:54:46.079
horse and buggies to cars, or we went from candles

1062
00:54:46.119 --> 00:54:48.000
to light bulbs, and went from black white TVs to

1063
00:54:48.039 --> 00:54:51.920
color TVs, what have you. And when silent movies went

1064
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:54.119
to talkies, a lot of people who had weird voices

1065
00:54:54.119 --> 00:54:55.920
didn't get to work, unfortunately, but a whole lot of

1066
00:54:55.960 --> 00:54:59.079
other people did get hired as that industry expanded. So

1067
00:54:59.239 --> 00:55:02.159
you get out and make these arguments and engage. Right now,

1068
00:55:02.199 --> 00:55:05.360
they're completely silent. I mean, I've been looking for the

1069
00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:07.159
case for AI, I've been looking for the case for

1070
00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:07.920
data centers.

1071
00:55:08.039 --> 00:55:12.320
I see literally zero. I mentioned this thing about the water.

1072
00:55:12.760 --> 00:55:16.719
There's a good article or video done by John Stossel

1073
00:55:17.320 --> 00:55:19.159
on YouTube, and a really good article in the Atlantic

1074
00:55:19.159 --> 00:55:21.519
of all places, on how the data center attack on

1075
00:55:21.599 --> 00:55:24.360
data centers is overblown. But other than those three things

1076
00:55:24.400 --> 00:55:27.239
which have done by outsiders, I have yet to see

1077
00:55:27.280 --> 00:55:30.760
any even one example of any communication from the data

1078
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:32.920
center companies as to why this is a good thing,

1079
00:55:32.960 --> 00:55:34.800
why they should not be shut down. So they got

1080
00:55:34.800 --> 00:55:36.480
to get involved in this or they're going to be

1081
00:55:36.519 --> 00:55:38.719
strangled at CRIB. And this is deadly serious. They don't

1082
00:55:38.760 --> 00:55:41.679
seem to understand what the risk is. The risk is severe,

1083
00:55:42.000 --> 00:55:44.159
and they got to get get in on this national

1084
00:55:44.159 --> 00:55:46.199
discussion because they're not, and if they don't, they're going

1085
00:55:46.239 --> 00:55:48.360
to find themselves out of business, which would be really

1086
00:55:48.400 --> 00:55:51.960
sad for them and very sad for the entire society.

1087
00:55:52.440 --> 00:55:53.920
You know, as you were laying this out, I was

1088
00:55:53.960 --> 00:55:56.039
looking for the political hook, and you kind of went

1089
00:55:56.119 --> 00:55:59.119
through it really quick, and you wrapped it into Bernie

1090
00:55:59.159 --> 00:56:02.880
Sanders and AO. What it is is the government the

1091
00:56:02.960 --> 00:56:07.719
confiscation of private property. They want to confiscate this deal.

1092
00:56:08.039 --> 00:56:11.639
If they can confiscate the data centers, hello, communism, socialism,

1093
00:56:12.239 --> 00:56:15.079
then they're happy with it. They want they're big. That's

1094
00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:16.760
really the bottom line, right.

1095
00:56:17.400 --> 00:56:19.840
Absolutely, and not just hey, you know, we'll take five

1096
00:56:19.840 --> 00:56:22.000
percent off the top. You know, Bertie Sanders says he

1097
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:24.400
wants half. If they can get more than half, they'll

1098
00:56:24.440 --> 00:56:27.360
take more than half. And in the meantime they're just

1099
00:56:27.559 --> 00:56:29.960
in order to get that, they're just terrifying people. And

1100
00:56:30.119 --> 00:56:31.679
you know, it would be one thing if they were

1101
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:34.320
terrifying people, but you have the AI companies, the data

1102
00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:36.840
center company saying okay, here's why Bernie Centers is wrong.

1103
00:56:36.880 --> 00:56:38.800
Here's what AOC doesn't understand.

1104
00:56:39.079 --> 00:56:41.679
But they're just getting beaten up like crazy from the left,

1105
00:56:41.760 --> 00:56:43.280
mainly the left, some people on the right of their

1106
00:56:43.280 --> 00:56:46.760
concerns and just zero zero, zero engagement. They're just I

1107
00:56:46.760 --> 00:56:50.280
can't think of another industry that's sitting there basically getting raped,

1108
00:56:50.280 --> 00:56:51.960
and they won't even blow the rape whistle. They won't

1109
00:56:51.960 --> 00:56:53.400
even yell rape that sit there and just all right,

1110
00:56:53.440 --> 00:56:55.199
I'll just sit back and you.

1111
00:56:55.159 --> 00:56:56.039
Know, take this quietly.

1112
00:56:56.360 --> 00:56:58.079
And that is going to wipe them out if they

1113
00:56:58.079 --> 00:57:00.519
don't step up and make the case for the themselves.

1114
00:57:01.039 --> 00:57:03.800
The case isn't going to make itself on its own.

1115
00:57:03.840 --> 00:57:05.679
They need to get up and make it and they're

1116
00:57:05.679 --> 00:57:07.320
not doing so, and that that is going to put them.

1117
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:09.039
I think it has them in great jeopardy right now.

1118
00:57:09.039 --> 00:57:11.159
And they've got probably a couple of months to get

1119
00:57:11.199 --> 00:57:12.519
involved in big trouble.

1120
00:57:12.679 --> 00:57:16.119
Right you know. Deroi think if AOC and Bernie Sanders

1121
00:57:16.119 --> 00:57:18.199
were at the founding of this country two hundred and

1122
00:57:18.199 --> 00:57:20.599
fifty years ago, our country would have been dead.

1123
00:57:21.239 --> 00:57:23.559
Yep, absolutely think about that.

1124
00:57:24.199 --> 00:57:26.519
And here they are now two hundred and fifty years later,

1125
00:57:26.800 --> 00:57:29.679
and they're doing and they think they know better. I mean,

1126
00:57:29.719 --> 00:57:32.480
they have no idea and forget about you know, the

1127
00:57:32.480 --> 00:57:36.079
Constitution be damned, Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness

1128
00:57:36.440 --> 00:57:39.119
be damned, and freedom for all be damned.

1129
00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:43.760
Right Yeah, well, that's certainly andous tremendous risk aversion. I mean,

1130
00:57:43.800 --> 00:57:46.719
if AOC and Bernie Sanders were in charge back then,

1131
00:57:46.760 --> 00:57:48.679
we never would have gotten off Plymouth Rock. You know,

1132
00:57:49.159 --> 00:57:51.760
the United States America be Plymouth Rock and maybe fifteen

1133
00:57:51.760 --> 00:57:53.280
feet around it. That's as far as we would have

1134
00:57:53.280 --> 00:57:55.480
gotten because oh, you know, you can't walk in that forest,

1135
00:57:55.519 --> 00:57:57.280
you can't chop down that tree. It's too risky. So

1136
00:57:57.320 --> 00:57:59.840
let's just city or see what happens. And they wouldn't

1137
00:57:59.840 --> 00:58:01.800
have got anywhere. I mean certainly be no settlement to

1138
00:58:01.880 --> 00:58:06.039
the other colonies, no settlement in the West, the Oklahoma

1139
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:08.920
land Rush wouldn't have happened. Those guys just be sitting

1140
00:58:09.239 --> 00:58:13.320
somewhere in northeast eastern Massachusetts. That never would have gotten

1141
00:58:13.800 --> 00:58:16.880
you know, even where Springfield is today exactly.

1142
00:58:16.960 --> 00:58:18.960
Well, I'm looking forward to the article that you said

1143
00:58:19.000 --> 00:58:23.039
should be released this week on the Daily Signal. Really

Bill Martinez Live, Welcome morning in Aloha.

00:59:49.239 --> 00:59:52.880
I'm here, I've been in Malu white. That's why the dirt,

you know, I have to fit the theme. And look

1172
00:59:56.679 --> 00:59:57.159
were going mad?

1173
00:59:57.400 --> 00:59:57.480
No?

1174
00:59:59.320 --> 01:00:01.039
Well, you know, are you out there to see you

1175
01:00:01.079 --> 01:00:02.559
in person, right.

1176
01:00:02.480 --> 01:00:05.519
Exactly, we'd have a lot of fun here. But anyway,

1177
01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:07.719
glad you could join us. The Debbie with now and

is joining us now she's with the I voter Guide.

Tell us about I voter Guide.

1180
01:00:11.719 --> 01:00:14.800
Well, I voter Guide is your nationwide election resource. It's

1186
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:33.719
So go there before you vote in your primary and

1187
01:00:33.760 --> 01:00:35.039
your general election this year.

1188
01:00:35.480 --> 01:00:37.880
Well, because it's all about the consent of the government, right,

1189
01:00:38.239 --> 01:00:40.480
and this is something that has been missing and why

1190
01:00:40.519 --> 01:00:45.440
there's such a discussion about the Save Act, and you know,

1191
01:00:45.559 --> 01:00:48.360
we a lot has been revealed, you know, I was

1192
01:00:48.400 --> 01:00:50.159
thinking about this the other day, Debbie, you know, with

1193
01:00:50.880 --> 01:00:54.559
you know, with COVID and what it how it pulled

1194
01:00:54.639 --> 01:00:59.920
back the shroud. Oh yeah, everything that was American, you know,

1195
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:07.239
our healthcare system, corruption, yeah, institutions, everything's all exposed. And

1196
01:01:07.280 --> 01:01:09.440
you sit in there going, you know, and you go

1197
01:01:09.480 --> 01:01:11.840
to the voting so you know what this is what

1198
01:01:11.880 --> 01:01:16.159
we created. We created this by trusting, not verifying, trusting

1199
01:01:16.199 --> 01:01:19.119
the institutions to do right by us. Is that fair

1200
01:01:19.159 --> 01:01:19.599
to say?

1201
01:01:19.840 --> 01:01:22.480
That is very fair to say. I would also frequently

1202
01:01:22.519 --> 01:01:25.119
will say I voter guide exists so that the governed

1203
01:01:25.199 --> 01:01:28.679
can give informed consent because we too often don't know

1204
01:01:28.719 --> 01:01:30.840
what we're voting for, who we're voting for, what they

1205
01:01:30.880 --> 01:01:33.159
stand for. So that's why we exist.

1206
01:01:33.679 --> 01:01:37.159
Well clearly. I mean, here we are celebrating our two

1207
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:40.400
hundred and fiftieth birthday of our country, and you've got

1208
01:01:40.440 --> 01:01:45.320
forty six percent of Americans that don't know American history.

1209
01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:46.360
So sad.

1210
01:01:46.719 --> 01:01:50.639
Yeah, So it's no question that we're so vulnerable. But

1211
01:01:50.760 --> 01:01:52.880
yet here we have these Europeans coming here for the

1212
01:01:52.920 --> 01:01:55.079
World Cup. God bless them. I mean, it's as if

1213
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:58.320
God decided, Okay, we're going to send you guys a lifeline,

1214
01:01:58.400 --> 01:02:00.639
and we're going to send a bunch of Europeans that

1215
01:02:00.840 --> 01:02:04.239
are not used to experiencing air conditioning and ice or

1216
01:02:04.280 --> 01:02:05.199
BUCkies or.

1217
01:02:05.159 --> 01:02:09.320
Even friendliness or generosity.

1218
01:02:08.559 --> 01:02:11.960
Right exactly. I mean, it's almost like as if Tolkville

1219
01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:14.840
in the modern era, in this century, has come back

1220
01:02:14.840 --> 01:02:18.360
to America to check us out and go back and

1221
01:02:18.440 --> 01:02:21.400
report back to Europe, which is interesting because they're going

1222
01:02:21.480 --> 01:02:23.239
to go back to Europe and say, you know, these

1223
01:02:23.280 --> 01:02:26.800
are good people, and we've got people here in America going, no,

1224
01:02:27.039 --> 01:02:30.559
we're a bunch of evil people. What a contrast. Hunh.

1225
01:02:30.599 --> 01:02:32.880
Well, you know, their media is similar to our media

1226
01:02:33.079 --> 01:02:36.000
in just telling the negative stories about Americas. So they

1227
01:02:36.079 --> 01:02:39.320
hear about ice protests and riots and people with blue

1228
01:02:39.320 --> 01:02:41.840
hair and nose rings that are protesting, and you know,

1229
01:02:41.880 --> 01:02:44.679
the crime rates, and so they don't hear the good stories.

1230
01:02:44.920 --> 01:02:46.880
But they got to see it for themselves.

1231
01:02:46.960 --> 01:02:53.800
Right, So they're taking their eyewitness experience of America back home,

1232
01:02:54.559 --> 01:02:57.760
and you know, and I'm saying for everybody here in America,

1233
01:02:57.760 --> 01:03:01.440
everybody else, Hey, take note. This is their impression. Like

1234
01:03:01.519 --> 01:03:04.280
it or not. These people are saying, hey, look at

1235
01:03:04.280 --> 01:03:06.719
I'd be happy to trade places with you. If you're

1236
01:03:06.719 --> 01:03:08.800
that unhappy here, Hey get you.

1237
01:03:09.239 --> 01:03:10.920
And some of them are. You know, I wanted to

1238
01:03:10.920 --> 01:03:14.280
move here, and now they're trapsing around America and loving it.

1239
01:03:14.360 --> 01:03:16.440
So you know, I'm not a soccer fan, Bill, I

1240
01:03:16.440 --> 01:03:18.199
don't know if you are. So I wasn't like in

1241
01:03:18.320 --> 01:03:20.639
on this when it first started happening. I also don't

1242
01:03:20.679 --> 01:03:24.639
really live on X and Instagram, So somebody first told

1243
01:03:24.679 --> 01:03:26.800
me about you know, have you seen those videos? I'm like,

1244
01:03:26.800 --> 01:03:29.920
what videos? I challenge you to go look and I

1245
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:32.880
went to YouTube and found some compilations to see what

1246
01:03:32.920 --> 01:03:35.320
they're saying. Because it's you and I talking about is

1247
01:03:35.360 --> 01:03:38.559
one thing, but here it fright voices, their mouths, in

1248
01:03:38.639 --> 01:03:41.960
their accents, and their sense of wonder at free refills

1249
01:03:42.000 --> 01:03:45.199
and things like that just really makes you appreciate the

1250
01:03:45.199 --> 01:03:46.880
things that we so take for granted.

1251
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:51.960
Yeah, exactly, So you know, object lesson perhaps and maybe

1252
01:03:51.960 --> 01:03:57.079
this might be an ignition for Americans, American citizens to

1253
01:03:57.119 --> 01:04:01.400
come together and to really honor this great American idea

1254
01:04:01.519 --> 01:04:03.280
and gift that God has given us.

1255
01:04:03.360 --> 01:04:06.840
Debbie Well and yes, and you know, I think about

1256
01:04:07.320 --> 01:04:11.119
in studying scripture, God wants us to remember when he works,

1257
01:04:11.239 --> 01:04:13.679
when he's and he has worked in America. You know,

1258
01:04:13.719 --> 01:04:16.760
like when the Israelites crossed the Jordan, he said, stack stones,

1259
01:04:17.039 --> 01:04:19.079
so that when your children see those stones, they can

1260
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:20.920
say why are those here? And you can tell them

1261
01:04:20.920 --> 01:04:24.000
the story, and that this is our opportunity now to

1262
01:04:24.079 --> 01:04:27.400
tell that story, especially the timing with the two fiftieth.

1263
01:04:27.920 --> 01:04:29.760
Why are we here for two fifty Why.

1264
01:04:29.639 --> 01:04:30.360
Is that special?

1265
01:04:30.440 --> 01:04:33.159
You know, go back to to to Deutouville. It's hard

1266
01:04:33.199 --> 01:04:36.000
to say his name and say what made us great,

1267
01:04:36.159 --> 01:04:38.280
which is that America is good and we're founded on

1268
01:04:38.320 --> 01:04:42.280
biblical principles and just understand that and research that it

1269
01:04:42.320 --> 01:04:45.000
wasn't taught in our schools. There's many generations that didn't

1270
01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:48.280
get the Civics and the history of the true story

1271
01:04:48.280 --> 01:04:51.199
of America's founding and how God was so fundamental and

1272
01:04:51.280 --> 01:04:53.480
so providential and why we're here.

1273
01:04:54.199 --> 01:04:56.679
You know, Debbie and my travels because you know here

1274
01:04:56.679 --> 01:04:59.800
I am. I'm I'm on the island of Hawaii, lucky me,

1275
01:05:00.920 --> 01:05:04.400
you know, traveling from Florida across the country, and it

1276
01:05:04.480 --> 01:05:07.400
was such a such a blessing because you know, I'm

1277
01:05:07.440 --> 01:05:10.760
observing overall and I'm thinking, you know, yes, the media

1278
01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:14.639
want is to believe that Americans are so evil and

1279
01:05:14.760 --> 01:05:16.599
mean spirit and everything. And I got to tell you,

1280
01:05:16.639 --> 01:05:20.039
going through the airports and everything like that, I you know,

1281
01:05:20.119 --> 01:05:22.960
I was impressed. I mean, people were helping people, they

1282
01:05:23.000 --> 01:05:27.960
were talking with people. You know, the generosity, that spirit,

1283
01:05:28.119 --> 01:05:31.320
that American spirit that goes under reported that you know,

1284
01:05:31.719 --> 01:05:33.840
the mainstream media doesn't want to report on it because

1285
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:37.360
they want this aggression and this aggravation to continue, because

1286
01:05:37.400 --> 01:05:41.519
that's what makes headlines. But by and large, Americans can

1287
01:05:41.599 --> 01:05:44.880
be proud that, hey, we got a great country and

1288
01:05:44.920 --> 01:05:48.039
for the most part, for the most part, we're very

1289
01:05:48.119 --> 01:05:50.039
generous and very kind to others.

1290
01:05:51.000 --> 01:05:53.880
Oh that's what I've experienced. I've traveled to forty eight

1291
01:05:53.880 --> 01:05:55.679
of the fifty States, and you know, they're all very

1292
01:05:55.719 --> 01:05:59.599
unique and very different, but the American spirit is evident

1293
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:02.960
where you go. The geography may be different, the you know,

1294
01:06:03.039 --> 01:06:06.599
the beauty is different, but still in God's creation, but

1295
01:06:06.639 --> 01:06:11.039
the people are still freedom loving. You know, would would

1296
01:06:11.039 --> 01:06:13.679
help anybody. I mean, we're the most generous nation in

1297
01:06:13.719 --> 01:06:16.239
the world when it comes to supporting you know, when

1298
01:06:16.239 --> 01:06:18.920
there's a crisis across across the world, and that if

1299
01:06:18.920 --> 01:06:20.960
you come to America you will see that. I found

1300
01:06:21.000 --> 01:06:24.039
it interesting and one of the European travelers said, you know,

1301
01:06:24.079 --> 01:06:25.920
he used to think it was bad because Americans never

1302
01:06:26.000 --> 01:06:27.920
leave the States. He says, But now that I've been

1303
01:06:27.960 --> 01:06:30.320
to the States, you don't need to leave the States.

1304
01:06:30.360 --> 01:06:32.880
There are so many variety of different things that are

1305
01:06:32.920 --> 01:06:35.119
all across you know, from Hawaii to Alaska, to the

1306
01:06:35.159 --> 01:06:38.360
Maine to Texas to Florida. It's all so varied and

1307
01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:41.119
different that you know, many of us don't leave. I

1308
01:06:41.119 --> 01:06:43.360
would encourage you to check out the rest of the world.

1309
01:06:43.559 --> 01:06:45.920
It is gorgeous and beautiful and their own cultures.

1310
01:06:46.840 --> 01:06:47.480
It's different.

1311
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:51.800
Well, it's as if America. You know, it's God. God

1312
01:06:51.840 --> 01:06:54.920
has turned America inside out before America needed to be

1313
01:06:55.000 --> 01:06:58.280
here and send missionaries out to take the gospel message.

1314
01:06:58.280 --> 01:07:00.400
And what's happening, you know, whether it's the World Cup

1315
01:07:00.480 --> 01:07:03.079
or other things. People coming here to this country. They're

1316
01:07:03.119 --> 01:07:07.000
coming here and God has reversed the mission field, so

1317
01:07:07.119 --> 01:07:07.599
to speak.

1318
01:07:07.719 --> 01:07:10.440
Do you think I think there's an element of that,

1319
01:07:10.599 --> 01:07:15.000
you know, the spiritual mission. We still need that flame

1320
01:07:15.039 --> 01:07:17.800
to fan. We need some spiritual revival to happen here,

1321
01:07:17.880 --> 01:07:20.280
some awakening, and there are glimpses that.

1322
01:07:20.119 --> 01:07:21.119
That is happening.

1323
01:07:21.920 --> 01:07:25.159
But just appreciating America for what it is and the

1324
01:07:25.199 --> 01:07:28.280
freedoms that we have to speak to travel to to

1325
01:07:28.320 --> 01:07:32.360
do what we want to do. Just the limited government,

1326
01:07:32.840 --> 01:07:36.280
the freedom to have free enterprise and BUCkies and Costco

1327
01:07:36.360 --> 01:07:38.880
and all of those things that you don't see when

1328
01:07:38.960 --> 01:07:42.239
you go to Europe is it's special and we don't

1329
01:07:42.239 --> 01:07:43.719
appreciate it as much as we should.

1330
01:07:44.079 --> 01:07:46.039
You're exactly right, because you think of the industry as

1331
01:07:46.079 --> 01:07:50.760
you say, whether it's it is buck Easier, Cosco, Amazon,

1332
01:07:51.880 --> 01:07:54.960
and all these new ideas that continue to flourish. And

1333
01:07:55.039 --> 01:07:58.840
here we have trillions of dollars that are coming into

1334
01:07:58.880 --> 01:08:01.920
this country right now. And behind that trillions of dollars

1335
01:08:02.920 --> 01:08:08.719
is labor. It's ideas that can flourish, which we've done

1336
01:08:08.760 --> 01:08:11.199
time and time again in this country like no other country.

1337
01:08:11.199 --> 01:08:14.079
Debbie, Well, there's so much innovation in America. You know,

1338
01:08:14.159 --> 01:08:16.000
they talk about air conditioning now and they got the

1339
01:08:16.039 --> 01:08:18.760
heat wave in France. Air Conditioning was invented in America.

1340
01:08:19.159 --> 01:08:21.880
Elevators were invented in America. Jet engines are I mean,

1341
01:08:21.960 --> 01:08:25.319
so many things that the world appreciates really came from

1342
01:08:25.359 --> 01:08:29.960
the freedom of innovation that the American system encourages and

1343
01:08:30.000 --> 01:08:32.520
causes to flourish. So that's part of what we should

1344
01:08:32.560 --> 01:08:34.920
be proud of, is you know, so much of that

1345
01:08:34.920 --> 01:08:37.079
that the rest of the world appreciates came from here.

1346
01:08:37.680 --> 01:08:40.119
Air Conditioning is a great thing living in Texas.

1347
01:08:40.520 --> 01:08:43.039
Yeah. The other thing I love is their comments about

1348
01:08:43.239 --> 01:08:46.039
what's this in my glass and go? It's called ice.

1349
01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:49.960
You know they're not used to seeing ice either.

1350
01:08:51.920 --> 01:08:53.279

This report is sponsored by IBM. A new study from

1370
01:09:54.039 --> 01:09:57.000
the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals a growing disconnect

1371
01:09:57.079 --> 01:10:00.359
between executive perceptions of AI progress and employee expert variance.

1372
01:10:00.600 --> 01:10:03.159
Executives report AI driven role change at twice the rate

1373
01:10:03.199 --> 01:10:06.560
employees experience it. Eighty one percent say AI skills are rewarded,

1374
01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:09.520
yet forty three percent of employees lack employer AI training,

1375
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:13.640
and fifty percent say AI obscures contributions. Au Parnannaire, IBM's

Chief Talent Leadership and Culture Officer.

1377
01:10:15.840 --> 01:10:18.279
The organizations that will lead in this at up won't

1378
01:10:18.359 --> 01:10:20.560
just be the ones with the best AI. They'll be

1379
01:10:20.600 --> 01:10:23.239
the ones that invest equally in their workforce, making it

1380
01:10:23.279 --> 01:10:26.119
clear when to trust or challenge the system, strengthening how

1381
01:10:26.199 --> 01:10:30.479
managers coach decisions, and rewarding employees for using AI responsibly,

1382
01:10:30.760 --> 01:10:32.079
not just using it quickly.

1383
01:10:32.159 --> 01:10:34.720
The study finds that organizations most likely to stand out

1384
01:10:34.800 --> 01:10:38.680
redesign workflows enable managers to coach effectively, clarify decision making,

1385
01:10:38.800 --> 01:10:42.239
and align incentives. Alongside AI adoption, these organizations could see

1386
01:10:42.319 --> 01:10:44.399
up to seventy three percent higher revenue growth and an

1387
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:47.520
eleven percent operating margin advantage over their peers. To learn

1441

It's a division of American Family Association Action. And as

1442
01:13:44.079 --> 01:13:47.640
DeBie said earlier, you know, it is critical for you

1443
01:13:47.720 --> 01:13:51.800
to be informed, especially now more than ever, and because

1444
01:13:51.800 --> 01:13:53.920
we're going to have to carry some of those that

1445
01:13:54.399 --> 01:13:57.000
are still kind of lackadaisical about our country, and we're

1446
01:13:57.000 --> 01:13:59.560
gonna have to carry them across the finished line, you know,

1447
01:13:59.640 --> 01:14:03.720
to maintain this democracy, this democratic republic. Right.

1448
01:14:04.079 --> 01:14:06.720
Yeah, The margins of people who turn out to vote

1449
01:14:06.800 --> 01:14:10.600
in primary elections and run off elections are minuscule, and

1450
01:14:11.000 --> 01:14:13.039
so many people don't vote and don't turn up in

1451
01:14:13.039 --> 01:14:14.920
those elections because they don't know who to vote for.

1452
01:14:15.279 --> 01:14:16.720
They don't have the time, they don't know where to

1453
01:14:16.760 --> 01:14:19.680
find the information, So go to ivoter guide dot com

1454
01:14:19.680 --> 01:14:22.000
and we'll solve that problem for you. We will give

1455
01:14:22.000 --> 01:14:24.920
the information so that you feel empowered, you feel equipped

1456
01:14:25.159 --> 01:14:28.399
to go out and vote, because this republic depends on it.

1457
01:14:28.760 --> 01:14:31.399
We get the government we have chosen, and if you're

1458
01:14:31.439 --> 01:14:34.840
not participating, you're giving consent for people who don't share

1459
01:14:34.880 --> 01:14:38.119
your values, who will show up and elect people that

1460
01:14:38.199 --> 01:14:39.239
represent their values.

1461
01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:41.279
Well. And the fact of the matter is is that

1462
01:14:41.319 --> 01:14:44.359
we have ballot stuffing that's taking place a lot of

1463
01:14:44.359 --> 01:14:47.399
things that you say, well, that's illegal, that's not fair. Yes,

1464
01:14:47.560 --> 01:14:50.800
we get that, but for some reason, we're having a

1465
01:14:50.920 --> 01:14:55.039
challenge as a country. We're having a challenge and controlling that.

1466
01:14:55.399 --> 01:14:57.479
And it reminds me, Debbie that you know, when you

1467
01:14:57.520 --> 01:15:00.239
read the Bible, there's that story about you know, the

1468
01:15:00.279 --> 01:15:04.159
profit and how they're there and they're having some porridge

1469
01:15:04.199 --> 01:15:06.760
and somebody goes and grabs some weeds out, you know,

1470
01:15:06.880 --> 01:15:11.119
one of the helpers, and it's poison and and the

1471
01:15:11.119 --> 01:15:14.640
profits it says, oh, there's death in this porridge, there's

1472
01:15:14.680 --> 01:15:17.079
death in this in this zoop and he says hey,

1473
01:15:17.079 --> 01:15:20.000
go get me, get me some good stuff. Get me,

1474
01:15:20.399 --> 01:15:25.319
get me the the legitimate, healthy, h ingredients that we

1475
01:15:25.319 --> 01:15:27.640
can put in there. And by putting the healthy ingredients,

1476
01:15:27.640 --> 01:15:31.960
that overcomes the poison. And it's almost like I think

1477
01:15:32.000 --> 01:15:34.840
we can learn from that, is that we need to

1478
01:15:34.920 --> 01:15:39.039
put good to cover the bad in such numbers because

1479
01:15:39.760 --> 01:15:41.800
what we have seen happening, you know, the level of

1480
01:15:41.840 --> 01:15:47.479
corruption that is taking place, that is invalidating the consent

1481
01:15:47.600 --> 01:15:51.760
of the government. Because when our votes are canceled out

1482
01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:55.319
by illegal votes, you know, that's not that's not the

1483
01:15:55.359 --> 01:15:58.920
American spirit. And I get that that most Americans are

1484
01:15:58.960 --> 01:16:01.680
fair minded to say, well, no, this is this is fair.

1485
01:16:01.720 --> 01:16:03.640
This is the way you do things. It's the way

1486
01:16:03.680 --> 01:16:05.840
you're supposed to do things. But it's the way things

1487
01:16:05.840 --> 01:16:07.640
are not being done right.

1488
01:16:07.800 --> 01:16:10.000
Well and in some areas, and it depends on who

1489
01:16:10.079 --> 01:16:12.439
rules in those cities in those states, because they put

1490
01:16:12.479 --> 01:16:15.319
in laws that you know, makes it legal for them

1491
01:16:15.359 --> 01:16:18.720
to chase ballots and stuff ballots and show up and

1492
01:16:18.800 --> 01:16:21.760
vote in fact, in California without in fact, it's illegal

1493
01:16:21.840 --> 01:16:25.159
to show a voter ID in California. So it's like

1494
01:16:25.239 --> 01:16:31.079
putting things, in my viewpoint, that facilitate nefarious purposes, facilitate cheating,

1495
01:16:31.319 --> 01:16:34.119
cheating or whatever, and so, but that happened because of

1496
01:16:34.119 --> 01:16:36.520
the people that got elected that put those laws in place.

1497
01:16:36.840 --> 01:16:39.199
That is not the law across the entire nation. I mean,

1498
01:16:39.239 --> 01:16:41.760
that's why the Save Act is being fought for and

1499
01:16:41.800 --> 01:16:43.520
at the federal level so that it will make a

1500
01:16:43.520 --> 01:16:46.079
federal law for all of that. But it gets down

1501
01:16:46.119 --> 01:16:48.760
to who gets elected in your cities, in your schools,

1502
01:16:48.880 --> 01:16:51.439
in your state governments, in the federal government. And we

1503
01:16:51.520 --> 01:16:54.319
need to be wise in electing for all of those offices.

1504
01:16:54.760 --> 01:16:56.880
And you know, this is a time and period, I

1505
01:16:56.960 --> 01:16:59.439
mean for the most part, you know, in our lifetimes

1506
01:16:59.439 --> 01:17:01.960
to be of course, you've been fighting, you know, with

1507
01:17:02.039 --> 01:17:04.880
Ivoter Guide. You've seen this coming around the mountain for

1508
01:17:04.880 --> 01:17:08.439
a long time, and this is what inspired you said,

1509
01:17:08.439 --> 01:17:10.079
look at, you know, we've got to be a part

1510
01:17:10.079 --> 01:17:12.560
of the solution, not part of the problem. And God

1511
01:17:12.600 --> 01:17:15.640
bless you in the organization that you've built to do this.

1512
01:17:16.199 --> 01:17:21.279
And we just have to continue to be the Paul Reveres,

1513
01:17:21.479 --> 01:17:24.199
the modern day Paul Revers of saying, look at, there's

1514
01:17:24.319 --> 01:17:27.079
danger around the bend here, and we have got to

1515
01:17:27.159 --> 01:17:30.199
wake up. I mean again, I think COVID was a

1516
01:17:30.239 --> 01:17:32.640
blessing in as much as that it opened our eyes

1517
01:17:32.640 --> 01:17:35.560
to some of this corruption. But you know, parents have

1518
01:17:35.640 --> 01:17:38.800
to understand. Look at we've kind of ignored it, you know,

1519
01:17:38.840 --> 01:17:40.640
for a long time, our kids. You know, we want

1520
01:17:40.640 --> 01:17:43.560
to blame education, say, well, it's education's pall. Yeah, in

1521
01:17:43.640 --> 01:17:46.560
part it is. But really education begins at the home,

1522
01:17:47.199 --> 01:17:50.039
you know. And this is why, like even in the Bible,

1523
01:17:50.079 --> 01:17:52.800
where the you know, God talks about what the Jews

1524
01:17:52.840 --> 01:17:55.319
referred to as the shma three times a day. You know,

1525
01:17:55.399 --> 01:17:58.520
God is one, and how you're supposed to continue to

1526
01:17:58.560 --> 01:18:01.279
talk to your you know, talk about God, talk about

1527
01:18:01.439 --> 01:18:03.319
you know, the blessings of God to your children when

1528
01:18:03.359 --> 01:18:05.520
you're coming, you're going, when you're lying down, when you're

1529
01:18:05.520 --> 01:18:08.359
at dinner, and that sort of thing. And that narrative

1530
01:18:08.439 --> 01:18:11.680
somehow has been canceled, you know, because of the information

1531
01:18:11.800 --> 01:18:13.560
age in which we live in. And you know, I

1532
01:18:13.600 --> 01:18:15.880
see families even on you know, that are on vacation

1533
01:18:16.000 --> 01:18:18.439
here in the island, and I see people at dinner

1534
01:18:18.479 --> 01:18:20.119
and everybody's got a phone in their hand. They're not

1535
01:18:20.159 --> 01:18:22.600
even talking at the dinner table. It's silly, huh.

1536
01:18:22.640 --> 01:18:25.960
Well, and we've proxied really the education of our children

1537
01:18:26.000 --> 01:18:27.880
to the school system, and we've seen what's happened in

1538
01:18:27.920 --> 01:18:30.760
the school system. We've proxied the spiritual training of our

1539
01:18:30.840 --> 01:18:34.279
kids to pastors and youth pastors who may not even

1540
01:18:34.319 --> 01:18:35.920
have a biblical worldview. If you look at some of

1541
01:18:36.000 --> 01:18:39.680
George Barnes's research, we the responsibility really rests with us

1542
01:18:39.680 --> 01:18:44.600
as parents, us with citizens to know and to do

1543
01:18:44.800 --> 01:18:46.760
to be We're supposed to be sultan light. We're not

1544
01:18:46.760 --> 01:18:48.960
supposed to let somebody else be the salt light. We're

1545
01:18:48.960 --> 01:18:51.680
supposed to do it ourselves. So watching shows like yours

1546
01:18:51.760 --> 01:18:54.720
researching what Americans founding was about, I would say go

1547
01:18:54.760 --> 01:18:57.039
back and watch School House Rock. That was fabulous when

1548
01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:59.600
I was going to school to learn some basic civics

1549
01:18:59.680 --> 01:19:02.800
and and just be a good role model for your

1550
01:19:02.840 --> 01:19:04.960
kids and your grandkids of what we're supposed to do

1551
01:19:05.039 --> 01:19:06.680
to be good citizens in America.

1552
01:19:06.760 --> 01:19:08.600
You know, it's interesting you bring up a good point here.

1553
01:19:08.600 --> 01:19:11.039
And I was talking with George Barney here recently and

1554
01:19:11.079 --> 01:19:13.640
we were talking. We always talk about a biblical worldview.

1555
01:19:13.640 --> 01:19:15.319
He and I have been connected the hip ever since

1556
01:19:15.359 --> 01:19:18.039
I graduated from Bible College, and God had led me

1557
01:19:18.119 --> 01:19:19.640
he said, look at this is it. You know, once

1558
01:19:19.680 --> 01:19:23.039
you're back beyond the microphone and focus on a biblical worldview,

1559
01:19:23.239 --> 01:19:26.039
focus on the truth of God, and here it is.

1560
01:19:26.079 --> 01:19:28.239
You know, it connects me with George. And here George

1561
01:19:28.319 --> 01:19:31.199
is already you know, a decade plus down the road

1562
01:19:31.319 --> 01:19:33.680
of biblical worldview. And this was somewhat new to me

1563
01:19:34.279 --> 01:19:36.560
when I got out of Bible College in the early

1564
01:19:36.600 --> 01:19:39.439
two thousands, which was amazing, and I felt I was

1565
01:19:39.479 --> 01:19:42.000
really upset with myself to say, how did I miss this?

1566
01:19:43.479 --> 01:19:48.079
But we were talking specifically about youth pastors, and the

1567
01:19:48.119 --> 01:19:52.039
youth pastors that are active today it's less than ten

1568
01:19:52.119 --> 01:19:55.279
percent hold to a biblical worldview and hire and send

1569
01:19:55.319 --> 01:20:00.439
their children, you know, to these young people that are

1570
01:20:00.479 --> 01:20:02.600
not even holding to biblical principles.

1571
01:20:03.039 --> 01:20:05.640
Well, and it convicted me. I mean, senior pastors don't

1572
01:20:05.680 --> 01:20:08.000
have that much higher a percentage, but youth pastors, it's

1573
01:20:08.039 --> 01:20:10.800
really depressing in a way. And you know a lot

1574
01:20:10.800 --> 01:20:13.359
of times churches it'll be some interim lay person who's

1575
01:20:13.439 --> 01:20:16.840
leading the kids. So it convicted me that I should

1576
01:20:16.880 --> 01:20:19.119
have done a better job. I will, you know, talk

1577
01:20:19.159 --> 01:20:21.399
to my kids, for my grandkids about doing better. But

1578
01:20:21.479 --> 01:20:24.920
we each need to have the personal responsibility to number one,

1579
01:20:25.000 --> 01:20:27.319
make sure we have a biblical world view and that

1580
01:20:27.359 --> 01:20:30.960
we're studying God's word and we're discipling ourselves through whatever

1581
01:20:31.079 --> 01:20:33.600
you know in depth Bible study God leads us to.

1582
01:20:33.840 --> 01:20:36.439
But to teach that to our kids, to teach history

1583
01:20:36.479 --> 01:20:39.279
to our kids. That's why homeschooling is growing because more

1584
01:20:39.319 --> 01:20:42.479
people are waking up to their eyes were opened in COVID.

1585
01:20:42.520 --> 01:20:44.800
You are spot on that it was. It's the silver

1586
01:20:44.920 --> 01:20:48.159
lining of COVID was that parents saw what was going on.

1587
01:20:48.319 --> 01:20:50.960
And God has really put a target on the back

1588
01:20:51.000 --> 01:20:53.479
of some of the liberal policies, the Dei, the CRTs

1589
01:20:53.960 --> 01:20:55.479
and woke in the church up.

1590
01:20:56.079 --> 01:20:58.960
Well, we're being called to rise up. We have got

1591
01:20:59.000 --> 01:21:01.479
to rise up again. Whin's this if we're going to

1592
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:04.520
save this nation? I mean, hey, look at God only knows.

1593
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:07.960
I mean, it's his, it's his time, it's his world,

1594
01:21:08.439 --> 01:21:11.439
and we know that certain things are to happen. They're

1595
01:21:11.479 --> 01:21:14.800
being revealed to us on a daily basis. We keep

1596
01:21:14.840 --> 01:21:16.479
an eye on what's going on in the Middle East.

1597
01:21:16.479 --> 01:21:18.479
I always tell people, you know, you look at Israel,

1598
01:21:18.520 --> 01:21:20.800
what's going on with Israel? That's God's our to hand.

1599
01:21:21.239 --> 01:21:24.760
But you know, getting back to America and where we

1600
01:21:24.800 --> 01:21:27.760
are right now, it's still a powerful force, by God's

1601
01:21:27.800 --> 01:21:30.920
grace and mercy. And you know, I love that you

1602
01:21:31.439 --> 01:21:33.239
and I felt the same way. I told people, look

1603
01:21:33.279 --> 01:21:36.039
at this time, that this season that we're in, you know,

1604
01:21:36.239 --> 01:21:39.840
review our founding documents, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution,

1605
01:21:40.399 --> 01:21:43.439
and you talk about a biblical worldview, and you start

1606
01:21:43.479 --> 01:21:46.439
seeing the hand of God and how this has enveloped,

1607
01:21:46.479 --> 01:21:50.479
how our founding fathers. You know, we're able to you know,

1608
01:21:50.560 --> 01:21:53.000
by God's grace and mercy and by I believe the

1609
01:21:53.039 --> 01:21:56.359
revelation of the Holy Spirit gave us such a powerful

1610
01:21:56.479 --> 01:21:57.840
outline and manifesto.

1611
01:21:57.960 --> 01:22:00.600
Right, yeah, no, And I would show you in this

1612
01:22:00.680 --> 01:22:02.840
year of the two fiftieth to read the Declaration, to

1613
01:22:02.920 --> 01:22:06.079
read the Constitution, To go find some books by David

1614
01:22:06.119 --> 01:22:10.319
Barton or Michael Medvid that talk about the story of

1615
01:22:10.319 --> 01:22:12.840
America and how God was foundational of that, maybe the

1616
01:22:13.000 --> 01:22:17.399
Revolution by Eric Matexas. Go see Young Washington, find those sources,

1617
01:22:17.439 --> 01:22:19.319
share them with your kids and your grandkids. I saw

1618
01:22:19.359 --> 01:22:21.920
Young Washington this weekend and took my twenty year old

1619
01:22:22.000 --> 01:22:24.520
and he's like, that was really pretty good and I said, Nathan,

1620
01:22:24.520 --> 01:22:27.800
and it was true. He says, yeah, So just they

1621
01:22:27.800 --> 01:22:30.640
need to see the counter to what they've learned in

1622
01:22:30.680 --> 01:22:33.920
the public school and to shed that light because you know,

1623
01:22:33.920 --> 01:22:36.479
I would say encouraging as well. A lot of people

1624
01:22:36.479 --> 01:22:38.720
don't vote because they say it's fixed or my one

1625
01:22:38.800 --> 01:22:42.439
vote won't count. But we know God works through a remnant,

1626
01:22:42.479 --> 01:22:45.359
He works through a small number of people, So don't

1627
01:22:45.399 --> 01:22:48.399
neglect your responsibility. You might be that one vote that

1628
01:22:48.479 --> 01:22:50.359
carries an election and makes the difference.

1629
01:22:50.760 --> 01:22:52.720
And how many stories have you heard, whether it's been

1630
01:22:52.920 --> 01:22:55.000
a one vote or maybe a handful of votes that

1631
01:22:55.159 --> 01:22:56.399
have made the difference.

1632
01:22:56.079 --> 01:22:58.840
Right, Yep, it's happened. It's dozens and dozens of time

1633
01:22:58.880 --> 01:23:01.760
in every election. That especially when you go down ballot

1634
01:23:01.760 --> 01:23:03.680
and look at some of those local races, school board

1635
01:23:03.760 --> 01:23:08.119
races that it's you know, five, six, ten, you know fifty.

1636
01:23:08.600 --> 01:23:11.039
When we covered school board races for the very first time,

1637
01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:14.520
the average winning margin was four hundred, no nine hundred votes,

1638
01:23:14.560 --> 01:23:16.079
and in a third of cases it was less than

1639
01:23:16.079 --> 01:23:18.319
four hundred. A lot of us go to churches that

1640
01:23:18.359 --> 01:23:20.880
could could make the difference in those school board races.

1641
01:23:21.399 --> 01:23:23.800
Well, Debbi is always an honor to have you on

and doctor Ian Jamonco with us because we're gonna be

1718
01:27:34.039 --> 01:27:38.239
talking about safety, what to do prepare your home and

1719
01:27:38.239 --> 01:27:42.760
finances for wildfires. Here science backed action steps to help

1720
01:27:42.760 --> 01:27:45.920
prevent ember ignition, and why it's important to contact you're

insured to make sure you have the right coverage. And

1722
01:27:48.119 --> 01:27:50.399
I got to tell you, Karen Ian, we couldn't be

1723
01:27:50.399 --> 01:27:52.800
at a better place right now. You see me in

1724
01:27:52.840 --> 01:27:57.039
my Hawaiian shirt because I'm coming to you live from Maui, Hawaii.

1725
01:27:58.920 --> 01:27:59.960
Great to see him be with you.

1726
01:28:00.640 --> 01:28:02.760
Yeah, well, great to have you here. So I mentioned

1727
01:28:02.760 --> 01:28:05.520
Malia White because I'm here in Lehina, which we know

1728
01:28:05.640 --> 01:28:10.159
not too long ago, and they're still recovering. It's heartbreaking

1729
01:28:10.199 --> 01:28:14.520
for me. My daughter, my grandchildren are here and it's

1730
01:28:14.560 --> 01:28:18.560
heartbreaking to see, you know, what's happened to this beautiful

1731
01:28:18.560 --> 01:28:19.399
part of this island.

1732
01:28:21.359 --> 01:28:24.319
Yeah, I mean this is one of the side of

1733
01:28:24.439 --> 01:28:27.199
you know what we talk about, these mass conflagration events,

1734
01:28:27.199 --> 01:28:30.279
and it's a reminder, right that these events can happen

1735
01:28:30.520 --> 01:28:35.720
anywhere where you combine the drought conditions, wind effects and

1736
01:28:35.760 --> 01:28:39.880
really whatever is the ignition point, and that's why that's

1737
01:28:39.880 --> 01:28:41.439
why we're here to talk about this bill.

1738
01:28:41.840 --> 01:28:44.359
Right, And Karen, you know, as I was flying out,

1739
01:28:44.600 --> 01:28:47.800
you know, I'm seeing all kinds of fire, wildfires breaking

1740
01:28:47.840 --> 01:28:50.520
out in the mainland of America as well.

1741
01:28:50.600 --> 01:28:54.880
Right, we are seeing a well above active season so far.

1742
01:28:55.279 --> 01:28:57.399
I think with the number of fires that are burning,

1743
01:28:57.439 --> 01:28:59.640
we're over twenty eight percent above the ten year average

1744
01:28:59.640 --> 01:29:02.600
and the eight burn over thirty three percent average. With

1745
01:29:02.960 --> 01:29:06.079
major wildfires and a lot of areas across the West.

1746
01:29:06.680 --> 01:29:09.720
Well, as Ian said, these wildfire risks are escalating as

1747
01:29:10.000 --> 01:29:14.600
development expands into fire prone areas. Environmental conditions make fires

1748
01:29:14.640 --> 01:29:18.479
easier to ignite, faster to spread, and more destructive. And Karen,

1749
01:29:19.039 --> 01:29:22.760
according to twenty twenty five Fatality Report, nearly two point

1750
01:29:22.880 --> 01:29:26.000
six million homes in the Western United States face moderate

1751
01:29:26.359 --> 01:29:31.399
or higher wildfire risk with it and estimated combined reconstruction

1752
01:29:31.560 --> 01:29:35.560
costs of one point three trillion. This comes as a

1753
01:29:35.680 --> 01:29:38.399
very loud and clear warning, right, doctor Jimonco.

1754
01:29:39.560 --> 01:29:42.600
Yeah, that's exactly right. We've got rising costs. I'll let

1755
01:29:42.640 --> 01:29:44.399
Karen talk about the things you can you know, we

1756
01:29:44.439 --> 01:29:47.199
can look for in our insurance. But yeah, if we

1757
01:29:47.279 --> 01:29:50.039
look back, especially in the post COVID environment, we've seen

1758
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:53.359
inflation really drive up the entire building materials chain as

1759
01:29:53.399 --> 01:29:56.039
well as the labor market. And I'll let Karen talk

1760
01:29:56.039 --> 01:29:58.079
a little bit. It's about some of the insurance implications

1761
01:29:58.079 --> 01:29:58.720
have come with that.

1762
01:29:59.279 --> 01:30:01.439
Yeah, please can learn about what we can do to

1763
01:30:01.479 --> 01:30:02.760
prevent under insurance.

1764
01:30:02.840 --> 01:30:08.119
Ryan, Yeah, too often we overestimate our preparedness for these

1765
01:30:08.159 --> 01:30:10.720
types of events when they happen so suddenly. I think

1766
01:30:10.760 --> 01:30:14.640
we've seen over eighteen thousand structures just in the last

1767
01:30:14.960 --> 01:30:18.520
year with the Eaton and Palisates fire in California and

1768
01:30:18.560 --> 01:30:20.840
of course the Mali fire, and we've seen the Colorado

1769
01:30:20.920 --> 01:30:25.479
Marshall Fire, a lot of these big events. With inflation, recently,

1770
01:30:25.680 --> 01:30:28.680
we have seen the cost to rebuild surge. I think

1771
01:30:28.720 --> 01:30:32.880
it's forty seven percent higher for both building materials and

1772
01:30:33.000 --> 01:30:35.840
labor since January of twenty twenty. And that puts a

1773
01:30:35.840 --> 01:30:38.279
lot of pressure on do you have enough in your

1774
01:30:38.359 --> 01:30:42.279
policy so that annual insurance check up go over your

1775
01:30:42.359 --> 01:30:46.560
policy limits and coverage at minimal annually. Make sure the

1776
01:30:46.560 --> 01:30:49.720
policy reflect your square footage, the materials of your home.

1777
01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:53.520
Talk about the optional features like extended replacement cost coverage,

1778
01:30:53.800 --> 01:30:56.800
organs and law coverage and additional living expense coverage. All

1779
01:30:56.840 --> 01:31:00.319
of those can boost the amount of financial and it's

1780
01:31:00.359 --> 01:31:04.159
available in your rebuild. But details also matter. Know what

1781
01:31:04.159 --> 01:31:07.359
your policy covers. Is it a replacement cost policy that

1782
01:31:07.399 --> 01:31:10.079
pays to replace all your items at current market price?

1783
01:31:10.520 --> 01:31:12.640
Or is it an actual cash value policy that may

1784
01:31:12.680 --> 01:31:15.720
take depreciation into account and pays less for those aged

1785
01:31:15.800 --> 01:31:19.880
items exactly done home improvements, make sure those are reflected

1786
01:31:19.920 --> 01:31:22.800
as well. It comes down to that conversation with your

1787
01:31:22.800 --> 01:31:23.920
company or your agent.

1788
01:31:24.520 --> 01:31:27.239
Yeah, you don't know until you know. Sadly, and in

1789
01:31:27.359 --> 01:31:32.399
talking with the people here in a Lahina, in some cases, sadly, Karen,

1790
01:31:32.479 --> 01:31:35.119
people who have had these homes for generations and they

1791
01:31:35.159 --> 01:31:38.159
didn't keep up with their policies, and all of a sudden,

1792
01:31:38.159 --> 01:31:41.840
they find out that their policies cannot rebuild their homes

1793
01:31:41.920 --> 01:31:44.279
and they're having to sadly sell their property.

1794
01:31:45.359 --> 01:31:47.439
And we see that so often, and that is a

1795
01:31:47.479 --> 01:31:49.359
perfect example of why you want to make sure you

1796
01:31:49.439 --> 01:31:53.039
maintain coverage. We will see also those that have retired

1797
01:31:53.239 --> 01:31:55.199
and they pay off that mortgage and they don't feel

1798
01:31:55.199 --> 01:31:57.720
that it's needed to keep that policy in place. But

1799
01:31:57.960 --> 01:32:01.199
that is a very unfortunate example of you want to

1800
01:32:01.239 --> 01:32:05.359
maintain that financial safety. That insurance really is your primary

1801
01:32:06.279 --> 01:32:09.800
recovery resource. You know, there may be federal disaster grants,

1802
01:32:09.840 --> 01:32:12.920
but they're never going to be enough to fully rebuild

1803
01:32:12.960 --> 01:32:16.600
and often that takes additional time and what you can recover,

1804
01:32:16.720 --> 01:32:21.840
and so insurance is your best resource financially, and not

1805
01:32:21.920 --> 01:32:23.880
just for those that own a home. You know, if

1806
01:32:23.920 --> 01:32:26.199
you are a renter or if you own a condo,

1807
01:32:26.840 --> 01:32:29.520
renters can lose everything in a fire just like home owner,

1808
01:32:29.840 --> 01:32:32.479
So you want to look at you know, shop around

1809
01:32:32.640 --> 01:32:35.600
is very easy to bundle your insurance including renters or

1810
01:32:35.600 --> 01:32:37.479
home owners, with your auto policy and it makes for

1811
01:32:37.520 --> 01:32:40.680
a very more affordable rate when you do that. And

1812
01:32:40.760 --> 01:32:44.239
so these are important conversations to have, and you want

1813
01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:46.479
to do it before the event happens.

1814
01:32:46.479 --> 01:32:50.640
That's the key, right exactly. And you know, as they say,

1815
01:32:50.640 --> 01:32:53.279
it takes a village, right. I mean, also part of

1816
01:32:53.319 --> 01:32:57.640
this approach holistically is how communities can come together and

1817
01:32:57.720 --> 01:32:59.119
take collective action, right.

1818
01:33:00.000 --> 01:33:03.760
So that's how you get the best fighting chance. And

1819
01:33:03.840 --> 01:33:06.359
you can start again, start with your own home and

1820
01:33:06.399 --> 01:33:09.079
start doing some of those the things that we could

1821
01:33:09.079 --> 01:33:11.199
talk about about how to make your home ready for

1822
01:33:11.239 --> 01:33:13.159
the next fire. But when you do it with your neighbors,

1823
01:33:13.600 --> 01:33:17.720
your whole block, your whole neighborhood, You've not only changed

1824
01:33:17.880 --> 01:33:22.479
your one piece of that puzzle, You've changed the entire landscape.

1825
01:33:22.520 --> 01:33:25.479
You've turned your neighborhood into something that is a defense

1826
01:33:25.560 --> 01:33:28.960
system against that fire. It's going to make fire fighting

1827
01:33:29.000 --> 01:33:32.359
efforts much more effective. It's going to slow fire progress,

1828
01:33:32.680 --> 01:33:35.760
and in even the best case scenario, you might even

1829
01:33:35.800 --> 01:33:40.079
turn your neighborhood it will act more like a fire break, yes,

1830
01:33:40.239 --> 01:33:43.399
and it's going to really change outcomes in mass so

1831
01:33:43.479 --> 01:33:46.279
this is one thing. Start start with your own home,

1832
01:33:46.560 --> 01:33:48.760
but start talking to your neighbors. Start talking with your

1833
01:33:48.760 --> 01:33:52.399
neighborhood and think about how you start putting this whole

1834
01:33:52.479 --> 01:33:57.199
puzzle system together. And I think that will show that

1835
01:33:57.279 --> 01:33:59.359
we can do this. When we do it all together,

1836
01:33:59.439 --> 01:34:00.680
we can make big difference.

1837
01:34:01.119 --> 01:34:04.000
Well, doctor Jamonco, I think you know, anecdotally, people are

1838
01:34:04.000 --> 01:34:08.960
surprised at how logical, common sensical, and at the same

1839
01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:11.920
time even how easy some of these things to do

1840
01:34:12.199 --> 01:34:14.600
that really fortify your homes.

1841
01:34:14.680 --> 01:34:17.039
Right, yeah, so Bill, you know, you think about the

1842
01:34:17.079 --> 01:34:19.319
things we've talked about over the years on this show.

1843
01:34:19.439 --> 01:34:21.479
Is it comes to things like wind it there's a

1844
01:34:21.479 --> 01:34:24.000
lot of structural elements what you have to do well.

1845
01:34:24.000 --> 01:34:26.960
Wildfire is a bit different. There's a lot of actions

1846
01:34:27.079 --> 01:34:30.840
you can take your cell that generally do make a

1847
01:34:30.840 --> 01:34:33.880
lot of sense. Right the first five foot of landscaping

1848
01:34:33.920 --> 01:34:37.079
around your home, that's that critical area where embers pile up.

1849
01:34:37.439 --> 01:34:40.439
So get things that burn out of that area. Get

1850
01:34:40.479 --> 01:34:44.119
those fence gates that are combustible, replace it with metal.

1851
01:34:44.960 --> 01:34:48.239
Things like protecting your vents with eighth inch mesh screen

1852
01:34:48.359 --> 01:34:51.439
to make sure embers can't get inside and ignite things

1853
01:34:51.439 --> 01:34:54.359
from the inside out. So these are if we think about, hey,

1854
01:34:54.880 --> 01:34:57.000
I got a lot of embers attacking my home and

1855
01:34:57.079 --> 01:34:59.920
I want to break the chain of fire coming at

1856
01:35:00.239 --> 01:35:03.239
my house, you start to make a lot of sense, right.

1857
01:35:03.239 --> 01:35:05.720
It's like, I want to remove all those weakest links

1858
01:35:05.960 --> 01:35:08.479
and if I put that system together, my home's going

1859
01:35:08.520 --> 01:35:10.079
to have a really good fighting chance. And we just

1860
01:35:10.159 --> 01:35:12.279
hit the idea, if you do it, your neighbors, do it,

1861
01:35:12.319 --> 01:35:15.399
your whole neighborhood does it. You have changed the entire

1862
01:35:15.479 --> 01:35:17.279
outcome for a whole community.

1863
01:35:17.520 --> 01:35:22.359
Yeah, you fortified yourself. And also talk about curbapill. Yeah,

1864
01:35:22.359 --> 01:35:22.720
so I.

1865
01:35:22.640 --> 01:35:24.960
Think you know, landscape is such a huge deal in

1866
01:35:25.079 --> 01:35:28.640
becoming wildfire ready or prepared for the fire, because it

1867
01:35:28.680 --> 01:35:30.920
is it brings that chain of fire to our home

1868
01:35:31.119 --> 01:35:34.199
or it breaks it. Right, So first five feet get

1869
01:35:34.199 --> 01:35:35.960
the things that can burn out of it. After that

1870
01:35:36.039 --> 01:35:40.479
you're talking about spacing those vegetation elements and man, people

1871
01:35:40.479 --> 01:35:43.319
have come up with some beautiful ideas about how to

1872
01:35:43.399 --> 01:35:47.039
do this. I love personally, like the hard escapes where

1873
01:35:47.039 --> 01:35:48.960
you use a lot of pavers and pea gravel to

1874
01:35:49.000 --> 01:35:52.079
create that trail. Look that to me really appeals. I

1875
01:35:52.079 --> 01:35:54.279
know some people might not like that, but I would say,

1876
01:35:54.319 --> 01:35:57.359
look out there. You'll see homes that have these these

1877
01:35:57.439 --> 01:36:00.680
landscape mitigation actions done and you don't even rea. You're

1878
01:36:00.720 --> 01:36:03.600
just sitting there thinking, hey, these are really cool. I

1879
01:36:03.680 --> 01:36:06.920
want to do that. I think it looks great. I'm

1880
01:36:07.000 --> 01:36:09.359
just like everybody else, right, I love landscaping. That's one

1881
01:36:09.399 --> 01:36:12.079
of my big hobbies around my house, and I'm always

1882
01:36:12.079 --> 01:36:15.800
looking for ideas, so check them out. Landscape architects can

1883
01:36:15.840 --> 01:36:18.479
have ideas your landscaper if you'd say, hey, I've saved

1884
01:36:18.520 --> 01:36:20.239
up the money, I want to have somebody else do this,

1885
01:36:21.039 --> 01:36:23.399
or you're just looking for ideas of how to do

1886
01:36:23.439 --> 01:36:26.239
it yourself. So lots of options out there, and this

1887
01:36:26.239 --> 01:36:28.680
stuff plays a really big role in breaking that chain

1888
01:36:28.720 --> 01:36:30.159
of fire exactly.

1889
01:36:30.479 --> 01:36:33.960
Doctor Ian Giamonco is a Managing director of Atmospheric Science

1890
01:36:34.000 --> 01:36:38.119
Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety, and Karen Collins

1891
01:36:38.119 --> 01:36:41.319
the property insurance and natural disaster expert. Karen, As we

1892
01:36:41.359 --> 01:36:45.680
wrap things up, remind everybody why it's so important to

1893
01:36:46.439 --> 01:36:49.680
you know, to speak with your agents, to get the

1894
01:36:49.760 --> 01:36:54.439
right council in preparation. Preparation is is so key in

1895
01:36:54.479 --> 01:36:55.119
all this right.

1896
01:36:55.960 --> 01:36:58.560
You don't want to be caught surprised after the event

1897
01:36:58.600 --> 01:37:02.600
has happened. So that conversation beforehand is so critical. And

1898
01:37:02.640 --> 01:37:04.319
it's not just you know, for fire, go over your

1899
01:37:04.359 --> 01:37:07.359
current coverage, but also we have a super El Nino

1900
01:37:07.399 --> 01:37:09.840
forecaster for this year that maybe record breaking. We've got

1901
01:37:09.880 --> 01:37:13.600
an active Pacific ring of fire with seismic activity and earthquakes.

1902
01:37:14.039 --> 01:37:17.479
Talk about what other coverage gaps you might have. You

1903
01:37:17.560 --> 01:37:20.800
might need a flood insurance policy or an earthquake insurance policy,

1904
01:37:20.800 --> 01:37:24.159
which are usually separate from your main policy. These are

1905
01:37:24.159 --> 01:37:27.319
the conversations you want to be proactive about. Don't set

1906
01:37:27.319 --> 01:37:29.880
it and forget it and assume and then leave yourself

1907
01:37:29.880 --> 01:37:32.439
exposed and do a home inventory also to create a

1908
01:37:32.479 --> 01:37:35.119
record of what you have, because that's the simple step

1909
01:37:35.399 --> 01:37:37.600
in the aftermath should something happen.

1910
01:37:38.319 --> 01:37:41.479
Where can our viewers go for more information, Karen for all.

1911
01:37:41.359 --> 01:37:45.640
The financial tips, you know, inventory steps, and the conversation

1912
01:37:45.720 --> 01:37:51.159
I have, go to www dot APCI dot org slash

1913
01:37:51.399 --> 01:37:54.439

great testimonials and pictures. If you're looking for some extra

creative inspiration on how to go about everything that we've

1917
01:38:04.560 --> 01:38:05.319
talked about today.

1918
01:38:05.840 --> 01:38:09.399
Well, Karen Collins, property insurance and natural disaster expert, and

1919
01:38:09.479 --> 01:38:12.319
doctor I Jimonco have been our guest. He's Managing director

1920
01:38:12.319 --> 01:38:16.119
of Atmospheric Science, Insurance Institute for Business and Home Safety.

1921
01:38:16.319 --> 01:38:18.039
Thank you both appreciate the information.

1922
01:38:18.119 --> 01:38:20.119
Take care absolutely, Thanks Bill.

1923
01:38:22.000 --> 01:38:24.640
This report is sponsored by IBM. A new study from

1924
01:38:24.680 --> 01:38:27.680
the IBM Institute for Business Value reveals a growing disconnect

1925
01:38:27.720 --> 01:38:31.760
between executive perceptions of AI progress and employee experience. Executives

1926
01:38:31.800 --> 01:38:34.319
report AI driven role change at twice the rate employees

1927
01:38:34.359 --> 01:38:37.199
experience it. Eighty one percent say AI skills are rewarded,

1928
01:38:37.319 --> 01:38:40.159
yet forty three percent of employees lack employer AI training

1929
01:38:40.279 --> 01:38:44.279
and fifty percent say AI obscures contributions. A Parnonnaire, IBM's

1930
01:38:44.319 --> 01:38:46.279
Chief Talent, Leadership and Culture Officer.

1931
01:38:46.520 --> 01:38:48.920
The organizations that will lead in this at up won't

1932
01:38:49.000 --> 01:38:51.199
just be the ones with the best AI. They'll be

1933
01:38:51.239 --> 01:38:53.880
the ones that invest equally in their workforce, making it

1934
01:38:53.920 --> 01:38:57.279
clear when to trust or challenges, system strengthening how managers

1935
01:38:57.399 --> 01:39:01.479
coach decisions, and rewarding employees. We use AI responsibly, not

1936
01:39:01.680 --> 01:39:02.720
just using it quickly.

1937
01:39:02.800 --> 01:39:05.319
The study finds that organizations most likely to stand out

1938
01:39:05.439 --> 01:39:09.319
redesign workflows enable managers to coach effectively, clarify decision making,

1939
01:39:09.439 --> 01:39:12.880
and align incentives. Alongside AI adoption, these organizations could see

1940
01:39:12.960 --> 01:39:15.039
up to seventy three percent higher revenue growth and an

1941
01:39:15.079 --> 01:39:18.359
eleven percent operating margin advantage over their peers. To learn more,

You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

2002
01:42:39.600 --> 01:42:43.960
Now, Hey, Jim Aloha, Hello, your life is really hard.

2003
01:42:43.960 --> 01:42:44.159
Bill.

2004
01:42:44.239 --> 01:42:45.399
I feel so sorry for you.

2005
01:42:45.800 --> 01:42:48.680
I know, I appreciate your compassion. It's just using you

2006
01:42:48.720 --> 01:42:51.520
know here, I'll tell you the compassion we have though

2007
01:42:51.600 --> 01:42:55.079
right now is for the American voter on the border

2008
01:42:55.119 --> 01:42:58.079
bill that you know, Trump has led the way on this,

2009
01:42:58.560 --> 01:43:01.880
He's kept the focus on it, and you know, this

2010
01:43:02.000 --> 01:43:04.159
is what the American people have been waiting for, and

2011
01:43:04.159 --> 01:43:07.800
we've got to get it beyond beyond an executive voter

2012
01:43:07.920 --> 01:43:09.640
because you know what the Democrats are going to do,

2013
01:43:09.800 --> 01:43:12.720
which is what they always do. They unwind all the

2014
01:43:12.720 --> 01:43:16.760
good and positive things that the previous administration effects.

2015
01:43:17.239 --> 01:43:19.359
Yeah, well, and they don't really have to do anything

2016
01:43:19.399 --> 01:43:24.479
because if this so, a bill's going through, This is

2017
01:43:24.520 --> 01:43:27.479
going through to the Judiciary Committee this week for mark up.

2018
01:43:27.760 --> 01:43:30.640
I believe it's ninety seven to seventy three HR. Ninety

2019
01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:34.359
seven to seventy three. Now markup. This is a term

2020
01:43:35.239 --> 01:43:40.359
in Congress that means a bill text comes before the committee.

2021
01:43:40.399 --> 01:43:43.800
Judiciary Committee is the one that does immigration, and they

2022
01:43:43.840 --> 01:43:46.119
basically make it say whatever they want to say there.

2023
01:43:46.159 --> 01:43:50.760
So whatever the bill originally says is sort of lucy

2024
01:43:50.840 --> 01:43:56.279
goosey until the Judiciary Committee marks it up. So they're

2025
01:43:56.359 --> 01:43:59.159
changing it. So what we really need is for them

2026
01:43:59.239 --> 01:44:03.960
to make it tough as possible because unless they act,

2027
01:44:04.239 --> 01:44:07.039
unless we can get it through the Senate and the

2028
01:44:07.079 --> 01:44:10.640
President to sign it, then any future administration can go

2029
01:44:10.760 --> 01:44:14.279
back to doing what Biden did because the law is

2030
01:44:14.359 --> 01:44:19.159
so muddy, it's so ancient, it's it's there's all these

2031
01:44:19.199 --> 01:44:21.880
loopholes that have developed over time. This is a bill

2032
01:44:21.920 --> 01:44:26.840
that would close the loopholes. For example, UH, the the

2033
01:44:26.920 --> 01:44:28.479
a lot of the people who came in, some of

2034
01:44:28.479 --> 01:44:32.239
the millions who came in under Biden were because of

2035
01:44:32.239 --> 01:44:36.960
of the the misuse of of the what is it

2036
01:44:37.000 --> 01:44:43.399
called probation UH parole parole authority, in which which was

2037
01:44:43.399 --> 01:44:45.720
designed to let one person at a time in as

2038
01:44:45.720 --> 01:44:49.960
an exception. You know you need an operation, mister, someone

2039
01:44:50.000 --> 01:44:52.359
from South America, you can come in and get your operation,

2040
01:44:52.960 --> 01:44:56.960
and here's the authority. Instead Biden used it to bring

2041
01:44:57.079 --> 01:45:00.760
whole groups of hundreds of thousands of people in. It's oh,

2042
01:45:00.840 --> 01:45:04.760
you're from you're from Venezuela. Your country's had a tough

2043
01:45:04.760 --> 01:45:09.479
time recently, come on in. And so that's one thing.

2044
01:45:09.760 --> 01:45:15.399
And also asylum reform, so asylum is something that Trump's

2045
01:45:15.479 --> 01:45:20.079
just shut down completely because Biden was using it. If

2046
01:45:20.359 --> 01:45:24.520
the way he was interpreting it. If if if someone

2047
01:45:24.560 --> 01:45:27.479
could get one foot on us soil and they said, oh,

2048
01:45:27.520 --> 01:45:30.279
I want asylum, and then you got put into the

2049
01:45:30.439 --> 01:45:32.439
queue of for to.

2050
01:45:32.399 --> 01:45:33.000
Have a hearing.

2051
01:45:33.279 --> 01:45:37.000
Well, the hearing might be in ten years, yeah.

2052
01:45:36.840 --> 01:45:39.199
Said how many how many kids? How many kids could

2053
01:45:39.199 --> 01:45:40.359
you develop in ten years?

2054
01:45:40.439 --> 01:45:44.960
Jim, Oh my gosh, yeah.

2055
01:45:43.920 --> 01:45:47.720
On top everything else. By the way, yes, right, exactly right.

2056
01:45:47.840 --> 01:45:50.359
But you can you can, you can disappear in the country,

2057
01:45:50.399 --> 01:45:52.960
which is what most of it because it's complete fraud.

2058
01:45:53.359 --> 01:45:57.359
I mean, there are true asylum cases. The problem is

2059
01:45:57.359 --> 01:45:59.760
is that Trump's him backed into a corner because he

2060
01:45:59.800 --> 01:46:03.039
does and have these laws that would reform it to

2061
01:46:03.119 --> 01:46:05.199
make it better. So he has to just shut it

2062
01:46:05.279 --> 01:46:08.840
down to keep the abuses out. Won't Congress help him.

2063
01:46:09.520 --> 01:46:12.960
It's like it's like they're finally waking up that oh

2064
01:46:13.000 --> 01:46:18.439
they have a job to do too, Right, it's the Congress. Well,

2065
01:46:18.479 --> 01:46:26.760
the constitution makes Congress responsible for immigration policy, and the

2066
01:46:26.800 --> 01:46:32.479
president only does it because with the authority the Congress

2067
01:46:32.520 --> 01:46:36.439
gives it. And if the laws are two like I say,

2068
01:46:36.520 --> 01:46:40.960
Lucy Goosey decades old, and there you can drive holes

2069
01:46:41.399 --> 01:46:42.760
and you can drive trucks.

2070
01:46:42.520 --> 01:46:43.640
Through the holes in the law.

2071
01:46:44.039 --> 01:46:48.279
Well, then you get a president who doesn't really care

2072
01:46:48.439 --> 01:46:53.199
to secure the borders and millions of people come. So Congress,

2073
01:46:53.199 --> 01:46:55.800
this is the number one thing they have to accomplish

2074
01:46:56.199 --> 01:47:00.760
this year, and it's coming up to this this week

2075
01:47:01.199 --> 01:47:03.560
in the Judiciary Committee. They're going to mark it up

2076
01:47:04.119 --> 01:47:05.840
and when they do that, they'll send it on to

2077
01:47:05.960 --> 01:47:10.439
the to the floor, and the Speaker says he'll schedule

2078
01:47:10.439 --> 01:47:10.960
a vote.

2079
01:47:11.239 --> 01:47:12.119
So that's great.

2080
01:47:12.279 --> 01:47:15.640
Presumably Republicans can get their act together to vote for

2081
01:47:15.840 --> 01:47:19.239
this thing, which every Republican voter wants and half the

2082
01:47:19.279 --> 01:47:25.479
Democratic voters want right the border. And yet here's one thing,

2083
01:47:25.680 --> 01:47:28.159
one more thing I want to point out. Well, this

2084
01:47:28.279 --> 01:47:32.920
is important that the apparently two versions of the bill

2085
01:47:33.399 --> 01:47:36.159
are going to be before the Judiciary Committee. One will

2086
01:47:36.159 --> 01:47:39.479
have you verify in it mandatory everify, and one won't.

2087
01:47:40.279 --> 01:47:47.640
Well it's why because some business owners are leaning on Republicans, No,

2088
01:47:47.760 --> 01:47:52.439
we don't want to verify. It's controversial. An article in

2089
01:47:52.520 --> 01:47:57.279
Politico states that some Republicans are feeling the heat from

2090
01:47:57.640 --> 01:48:02.000
business to not bring in e verify. So how does

2091
01:48:02.000 --> 01:48:05.720
it make sense to put to fix the border but

2092
01:48:05.840 --> 01:48:10.199
then allow millions of jobs to stay available to illegal immigrants.

2093
01:48:10.439 --> 01:48:12.760
It's like you can't build a wall high enough to

2094
01:48:12.840 --> 01:48:15.079
keep out people who are gonna have easy jobs when

2095
01:48:15.079 --> 01:48:19.439
they get in right, and these newcomers, I'm not criticizing

2096
01:48:19.960 --> 01:48:22.680
their motives as individuals, although they are breaking the law.

2097
01:48:23.119 --> 01:48:25.800
But when i'm the effect on American.

2098
01:48:25.359 --> 01:48:30.680
Workers of every nationality, every ethnicity, people who were legally here,

2099
01:48:31.479 --> 01:48:35.560
they get undercut, even though exactly illegally here get undercut

2100
01:48:35.720 --> 01:48:37.760
by the newest way, ridiculous.

2101
01:48:37.840 --> 01:48:42.760
It all contributes to the dragon affordability, Jim, it does.

2102
01:48:43.000 --> 01:48:45.359
There's been a lot of work on this. And notice

2103
01:48:45.399 --> 01:48:48.239
that the Wall Street Journal was in their editorial page

2104
01:48:48.279 --> 01:48:52.600
was denying this effect. But it's like, Okay, Biden brings

2105
01:48:52.640 --> 01:48:55.720
in I don't know, six or eight million people or

2106
01:48:55.760 --> 01:49:00.720
whatever it was in a four year period, and housing

2107
01:49:01.319 --> 01:49:06.359
was already a few million units short of being enough exactly,

2108
01:49:06.560 --> 01:49:12.079
and we're building slower than ever because of the lag

2109
01:49:12.279 --> 01:49:17.960
after COVID, because of regulation, all these factors were building

2110
01:49:18.000 --> 01:49:23.199
inflation well, inflation. So what happens is the housing supply

2111
01:49:23.319 --> 01:49:27.920
shortage gets much much worse and price is surge, which

2112
01:49:27.960 --> 01:49:31.399
means that people who are here legally, people who are

2113
01:49:32.000 --> 01:49:35.279
born in this country, people who've been come here legally,

2114
01:49:35.760 --> 01:49:39.520
now they're getting squeezed because everyone wants the same housing.

2115
01:49:39.520 --> 01:49:41.319
Right supply demand exactly.

2116
01:49:41.800 --> 01:49:46.119
It seems so obvious and it is obvious, but people

2117
01:49:46.640 --> 01:49:48.920
who don't want to see it don't see it.

2118
01:49:49.039 --> 01:49:49.239
Right.

2119
01:49:49.319 --> 01:49:52.960
You only have You can only hear something when you

2120
01:49:53.000 --> 01:49:55.199
have ears to hear and see something when you have

2121
01:49:55.319 --> 01:49:56.239
eyes to see.

2122
01:49:56.720 --> 01:49:56.920
Right.

2123
01:49:57.319 --> 01:50:00.720
Well, Donald Trump think God has seen the problem. He's

2124
01:50:00.760 --> 01:50:04.720
done everything he could on behalf of the American people because,

2125
01:50:04.960 --> 01:50:08.520
like you say, it's an important job, critical job for

2126
01:50:08.640 --> 01:50:11.760
Congress to do. It's also critical to the president, whose

2127
01:50:11.840 --> 01:50:15.439
number one job is national security. This is clearly a

2128
01:50:15.520 --> 01:50:19.560
national security issue when you let millions of illegal immigrants

2129
01:50:19.560 --> 01:50:23.079
come in, especially they have not been vetted everything. I mean,

2130
01:50:23.239 --> 01:50:26.279
this has just been one big mess that's had an

2131
01:50:26.279 --> 01:50:32.800
impact on our economy, on law enforcement, you know, everything

2132
01:50:32.920 --> 01:50:36.279
on down That is a problem that the American people

2133
01:50:36.359 --> 01:50:40.920
told Donald Trump by mandate, we need somebody to fix it.

2134
01:50:40.960 --> 01:50:43.159
Will you fix it for us? And that's what he's

2135
01:50:43.199 --> 01:50:45.720
been in the process of, you know, attempting to do

2136
01:50:46.079 --> 01:50:47.560
with no help from the Democrats.

2137
01:50:47.960 --> 01:50:50.880
Right, Well, but he can only do that while he's

2138
01:50:50.920 --> 01:50:55.319
in office, right, Yes, so after after he's gone, they

2139
01:50:56.439 --> 01:51:00.479
we get who knows, Gavin Newsom, could be Jay Events,

2140
01:51:00.560 --> 01:51:03.720
but it could be Gavin Newsom, it could be who knows,

2141
01:51:03.760 --> 01:51:05.840
it could be AOC. We don't know who the next

2142
01:51:05.840 --> 01:51:08.760
president is going to be, but we do know that

2143
01:51:08.840 --> 01:51:12.760
if they don't have a law forcing them continue transporter

2144
01:51:12.880 --> 01:51:16.720
policies where it's just a matter of time till we

2145
01:51:16.760 --> 01:51:18.199
get Biden two point zero.

2146
01:51:18.640 --> 01:51:21.840
Yeah, well there's no Yeah, there's no doubt they'll double down.

2147
01:51:21.880 --> 01:51:24.560
I mean, after all, Joe Biden doubled down in what

2148
01:51:24.640 --> 01:51:25.680
Brock Obama had done.

2149
01:51:26.840 --> 01:51:33.039
Well, yeah, well Obama at least did deport people. He did,

2150
01:51:33.079 --> 01:51:36.119
he made an attempt. Now he undercut the law in

2151
01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:40.000
other ways, but he was deporting people. But Biden just

2152
01:51:40.000 --> 01:51:43.159
just couldn't be bothered to deport people, and and so

2153
01:51:43.760 --> 01:51:48.199
and then he waived all these people in by the millions. Yes, exactly,

2154
01:51:48.199 --> 01:51:50.359
There's really been nothing like it in American history.

2155
01:51:51.079 --> 01:51:51.239
Uh.

2156
01:51:51.479 --> 01:51:53.720
And and people who are trying to get that first

2157
01:51:53.840 --> 01:51:58.920
job and out of college or out of high school,

2158
01:51:59.359 --> 01:52:02.640
people who just graduated from a trade school, they're trying

2159
01:52:02.640 --> 01:52:05.800
to get that first job and they find out, oh, well,

2160
01:52:05.840 --> 01:52:09.079
there's all these workers. They work so hard, they are

2161
01:52:09.119 --> 01:52:16.199
so cheap. Yeah, desperate people who will will take any wage,

2162
01:52:16.439 --> 01:52:21.479
work under any working conditions, and people who are here

2163
01:52:21.560 --> 01:52:24.680
legitimately don't have a chance. How can you eat against

2164
01:52:24.720 --> 01:52:28.239
someone who will always work for a quarter less.

2165
01:52:28.479 --> 01:52:32.880
Yeah, and maybe not even be properly licensed and certified, right.

2166
01:52:33.399 --> 01:52:34.680
Right, well, yeah, that's right.

2167
01:52:34.720 --> 01:52:36.479
A lot of the people who will come and work

2168
01:52:36.520 --> 01:52:39.000
at your house, they don't have the insurance that the

2169
01:52:39.039 --> 01:52:43.199
Americans have to have, right, the insurance in case someone

2170
01:52:43.199 --> 01:52:46.720
gets injured on the job, the license from the county,

2171
01:52:46.840 --> 01:52:51.479
all these things. And so you know, as a society,

2172
01:52:51.520 --> 01:52:55.680
we really have to decide what we stand for. Are

2173
01:52:55.680 --> 01:52:59.520
we just wanting to save the last dollar? Because society

2174
01:52:59.560 --> 01:53:04.000
pays pays when we overthrow the rule of law by

2175
01:53:04.239 --> 01:53:08.359
just closing our eyes to the legal status of people.

2176
01:53:08.880 --> 01:53:11.479
And uh, you know, we're being very selfish. You know

2177
01:53:11.520 --> 01:53:13.520
if we hire, if you hire someone for ten dollars

2178
01:53:13.560 --> 01:53:15.600
an hour to work on your house, nobody can live

2179
01:53:15.640 --> 01:53:18.840
on ten dollars an hour, so clearly right, yeah, So

2180
01:53:18.960 --> 01:53:21.880
the state or the or the federal government has to

2181
01:53:21.920 --> 01:53:25.520
step in. Uh, because of that poverty. They have a

2182
01:53:25.600 --> 01:53:28.119
legal they have a child born in the US that's

2183
01:53:28.159 --> 01:53:32.079
a citizen. Therefore they're qualified for all kinds of programs,

2184
01:53:32.520 --> 01:53:33.199
and so well, we.

2185
01:53:33.119 --> 01:53:34.880
Said, we say the government has to step in. It's

2186
01:53:34.920 --> 01:53:37.560
we the taxpayer has to step in. We the taxpayer

2187
01:53:37.560 --> 01:53:40.279
the ones that continue to pay the bill. Jim, as

2188
01:53:40.319 --> 01:53:43.479
we wrap things up here, tell people what they need

2189
01:53:43.520 --> 01:53:45.000
to do right now because we need to keep the

2190
01:53:45.039 --> 01:53:47.479
pressure on Congress to follow up and make sure this

2191
01:53:47.640 --> 01:53:48.880
passes bill.

2192
01:53:49.000 --> 01:53:53.720

and get gentual voice heard. If we if people back

2199
01:54:15.600 --> 01:54:19.159
home in the districts don't make their voice heard, then

2200
01:54:19.279 --> 01:54:23.560
Congress will only listen to the lobbyist from Busically, the

2201
01:54:23.640 --> 01:54:27.479
lobbyists from the left wing people in there.

2202

have the money that the people supported by business have exactly.

2205

2206
01:54:41.199 --> 01:54:45.199
that can square it up are voters. And how and

2207
01:54:45.239 --> 01:54:48.279

2208
