00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:01.560
Are you ready?

2
00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:03.279
Yeah, Okay, let's do it.

3
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:07.839
Ill Martinez Live a program about current events, our culture,

4
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160
our values, our politics, and our future.

5
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:13.880
And now Bill Martinez.

6
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:17.160
Hey, good morning, six minutes after the top of the hour.

7
00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:20.160
Right now, Bill Martinez here along with Grover nor Quiz,

8
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:22.879
the president of Americans for Tax Reform. Hey, Grover, good

9
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:25.640
morning to you. Hey, good to be with you, Alta.

10
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:27.760
It's exciting to be with you right now because we've

11
00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:30.879
got lots of great things to talk about. In terms

12
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:34.240
of even what the President suggested the other day in

13
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:37.320
the Press gaggle that maybe in the not too distance

14
00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:40.759
future you won't even have income tax to pay. What

15
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:41.600
do you think about that?

16
00:00:42.640 --> 00:00:44.640
Well, let me start from the other end of that,

17
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:47.159
because there is a move to get ready of income taxes,

18
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:50.520
but it's at the state level where it's really taking effect.

19
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.759
It's not just something one's thinking about. There are the

20
00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:56.280
eight states that have no income tax. We all know

21
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:59.280
about Florida and Texas. How do they do it? Florida

22
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:01.679
spends half times much as New York. They have more

23
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:04.400
people in Florida, a couple million more people than New York,

24
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.120
but they spend half as much. That's how come, you

25
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:09.799
don't need an income tax because New York spends two

26
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.200
hundred and thirty billion in the state and Florida about

27
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:17.000
one hundred and fifteen half half as much as New

28
00:01:17.079 --> 00:01:20.000
York per person, So there's one hundred and fifteen billion

29
00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:22.719
they don't need to take. That's the income tax they

30
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:26.760
don't have. It's not like they raised other taxes. It's

31
00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.640
that they don't have the additional taxes. So eight states

32
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:34.200
have no income taxes. There are today twelve states where

33
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:37.359
the Republican governor. It's all red states. Unfortunately, if those

34
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:39.879
of you listening from loose states, we'll get there, but

35
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:43.640
not yet. All the reds. Twelve of the governors have

36
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:47.000
said we're going to zero, and the legislature agrees, and

37
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.519
they've started the process. In five have actually passed the

38
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:54.079
law that will automatically click them down to zero. As

39
00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:58.680
revenue comes in above a fixed amount, that money is

40
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:02.959
not spent it taxes are cut that much, and so

41
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:07.120
every time revenue comes up and it's above a certain level,

42
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:10.800
then they permanently reduce the tax. In North Carolina for

43
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:16.039
twelve years, they've been phasing down automatically every single year.

44
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.199
They then moved to Iowa, and they went from a

45
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:23.560
top rate of eight point six down to three point eight,

46
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:28.319
ok at flat rate, and now they're going to zero.

47
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:31.759
North Carolina is en route to two point four and

48
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:34.360
then on to zero. Arizona's down to two and a

49
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:37.800
half and they're going to zero. Mississippi has passed a

50
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:41.199
law which will automatically take them to zero. So has Oklahoma,

51
00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:44.840
so as West Virginia, so has Kentucky, so as Indiana.

52
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.039
That's kind of a weak one. I'm I'm not really

53
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:50.080
sure I count Indiana yet. It'll take them fifty years

54
00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:52.439
to do it. The others are all doing it the

55
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:55.639
next ten to fifteen years. So we are seeing many

56
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.879
and there are another states that haven't yet started the process.

57
00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.479
But tell me the governor wants to do it or

58
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:03.159
the head of the House wants to do it, but

59
00:03:03.199 --> 00:03:07.520
they don't have a united front yet. So we are

60
00:03:07.639 --> 00:03:11.759
seeing states, could we do that an income tax? Well,

61
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:14.879
eight states don't have them. Why does the federal government

62
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.439
need it? And now we're looking at again another twelve

63
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:21.159
states to go with those eight that will also be

64
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:25.439
at zero. So we are going to have increasingly good

65
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.960
opportunities to look and say you know. Texas is a

66
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.639
big state, they don't have an income tax, and I

67
00:03:32.639 --> 00:03:35.639
think we have real opportunities to do that at the

68
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:40.199
federal level. It's not impossible. If we got control of

69
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.319
spending and limited spending is that's what they're doing at

70
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:47.560
the state level. We can phase it down with limited spending.

71
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:51.680
I'm not interested in phasing out the income tax to

72
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:55.960
just take it out of another pocket sales tax or

73
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.000
tariffs or something like that. That doesn't reduce the size

74
00:03:59.039 --> 00:04:02.240
of government or the cost of government to you or

75
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:05.000
me or anybody else. It just shifts it. That's not here,

76
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:09.879
it's over here. Yes, some taxes are more destructive than others,

77
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:14.520
that's true. That said, all spending is in some way

78
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.279
destructive because you've taken it from the private sector and

79
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:21.839
put it into the less productive federally in the government.

80
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:25.759
So the presence onto something. It's actually happening at the

81
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:31.040
state level, and we should be when we say let's

82
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.759
reduce spending, we should also be saying we should reduce

83
00:04:33.800 --> 00:04:36.600
spending because we want to face the income tax down

84
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:40.240
to zero. That gives people. Well, but when you don't

85
00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:44.199
spend money, you know it costs somebody something. But we're

86
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.800
all going to reduce the income tax the same okay

87
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.680
that people will buy. Let's let people keep their own money,

88
00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:53.560
don't take it and spend it. So, yes, we should

89
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.480
face the income tax down to zero. We're seeing it

90
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:58.759
at the state level. But it doesn't help to just

91
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.519
move it to something else. We need to reduce by it.

92
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:04.399
Well, Grover, two things come to mind. Number one is

93
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:08.800
the governor seemed to be budget conscious, right, so this

94
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:11.199
is determining saying, Okay, this is the kind of government

95
00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:14.439
that we can afford, so let's do this. And it's

96
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:17.879
not unrealistic. I mean, it's it's you know, decades of

97
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:20.399
experience saying this is what it takes to opreak the state,

98
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:24.439
all right. And so that in a sense is kind

99
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.439
of self contributing and controlling in terms of some fraud

100
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:31.439
and waste and other issues that they've gotten involved with

101
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:33.560
and realized, Okay, we need to clean these things up

102
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:37.000
and be accountable and so and by doing that, boy,

103
00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:39.560
it's a big win for these eight states now that

104
00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:42.959
are not paying zaxes. And it's also a reminder to

105
00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.600
the other states that are lagging that hey, look at

106
00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:47.639
if they can do it, why aren't you right, And

107
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.759
so it's up to the constituencies to speak out and

108
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:54.079
do something about it. But you know, speaking of fraud,

109
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:56.759
I mean, of course everybody's been talking about what's going

110
00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:01.360
on in Minneapolis, and I think that this might be

111
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.040
the canary and the gold mine here in the coal

112
00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:07.120
mine growers that people are saying, wait a minute, if

113
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:09.240
this has happened and it was covid era, and you

114
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:13.079
even have elon Omar admitting that, hey, they moved too

115
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:16.839
fast and the guardrails were ignored, and you know, made

116
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:19.319
some excuse. But the fact of the matter is it

117
00:06:19.399 --> 00:06:23.240
really indicted the system. And I think it brings Doge

118
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:24.360
back into the conversation.

119
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:25.160
What do you think?

120
00:06:26.240 --> 00:06:30.920
Yes, And in all fairness, Somali immigrants are not the

121
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.600
most sophisticated guys in town, so you can imagine what

122
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:37.800
people in New York are doing to steal money. The

123
00:06:37.879 --> 00:06:43.360
same way is this is this is not just an

124
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:46.480
issue in Minnesota or with Somali immigrants. This is we're

125
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:49.920
going to find this increasingly. And even when the US

126
00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.639
government takes a look at Medicare Medicaid, they suggest about

127
00:06:54.680 --> 00:07:01.680
twenty percent fraud and so and when does started poking

128
00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.360
and saying, could we like the list of maybe a

129
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.600
live citizens to see whether the checks that are going

130
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:11.439
out are going to citizens a live ones and they

131
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.639
only get one each, not three or four. Each of

132
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.439
those are different ways. You can end up with misspending,

133
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:21.759
with fraud and twenty percent reduction in the cost of

134
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:24.199
the welfare state would be huge and allow you to

135
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:28.439
cut taxes for everyone to create work growth. And we

136
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:32.319
need to be working on that is it.

137
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:33.399
Is so important.

138
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.439
The only way to get the income tax down and

139
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:39.879
the zero is to take our welfare system and move

140
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:42.720
it to the state level. Because when the federal government's

141
00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:45.639
writing checks, they don't care. And when the federal government's

142
00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:48.600
writing checks, the governor doesn't care because not his money.

143
00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:52.360
He is right, the Fed stall and now the Feds

144
00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:54.439
are going to throw it away. Okay, what does he here?

145
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.319
But if the federal government said we're going to block

146
00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:00.560
grant out to all fifty states, here's what we gave

147
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.720
you for welfare last year. Here's what you got. If

148
00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:05.759
you figure out fraud, then you can reduce your spending

149
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:08.839
and keep the money. Okay, that's what we did with

150
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:12.800
welfare reform under Clinton. For crying out loud for the

151
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.680
Republicans three times voted to reform welfare and send it

152
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:19.079
to the states, block granted out to the states, aid

153
00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:23.160
to families with dependent children, and twice Clinton vetoed it,

154
00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:25.959
being the good left wing Democrat he was. But the

155
00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:30.560
third time, mister Morris, Dick Morris, who was his political advisory,

156
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:34.440
said you vitael welfare reform, you lose the next election.

157
00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:37.720
And Bill Clinton cares deeply about poor people. He said,

158
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:40.799
got they're gone, and I'm going to say my election.

159
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:46.399
And when they block granted it, they reduce spending by

160
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:51.919
thirty percent by finding fraud, waste, people getting jobs. When

161
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:54.600
you tell people on welfare there's going to be welfare

162
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:56.360
reform and we're going to ask people to go to work,

163
00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:59.720
a lot of people who hadn't been going looking for

164
00:08:59.759 --> 00:09:01.960
work start looking. They didn't have to throw them off.

165
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:06.360
They last right exactly. It's amazing how it cures itself.

166
00:09:06.559 --> 00:09:07.840
We got to go to quick break. We've got more

167
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:09.799

So what do you do?

225
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:21.039
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

260
00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:18.440
Hey, we're back with you nineteen minutes after the top

261
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:20.559
of the hour. Bill Martinez here with Grover Norquist, the

262
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:23.440
president of Americans for Tax Reform. America is pre eminent

263
00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:26.440
center right expert on taxes. Grovers, you break it down.

264
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:29.679
I mean, there is historic precedent that when you do

265
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:31.840
the right thing, you get the right thing right.

266
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:37.679
Absolutely and again fifty states giving us good examples. Truly

267
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:41.360
stupid ideas can only be done in Washington, DC. Because

268
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:46.440
when you do Obamacare in Washington for the whole country

269
00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:51.639
and then things go wrong, well may be who knows

270
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:54.200
who caused the problem, because everybody has the same problem.

271
00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:57.120
Well we can kind of guess it was Obamacare, but

272
00:14:57.639 --> 00:15:00.960
you don't know what part of even Obamacare necessarily did that.

273
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:06.759
This is why when in Massachusetts, our friend how quickly

274
00:15:06.759 --> 00:15:10.360
we forget Ducaucus was running for President against George Herbert

275
00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:18.639
Walker bush Into in nineteen ninety, nineteen eighty eight, nineteen

276
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:21.919
eighty eight, way back when nineteen eighty eight, after Reagan,

277
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:26.159
he beats Ducaucus. Ducaucus actually got the Massachusetts legislature to

278
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:30.919
pass basically Clinton Care at what would become Clinton Care,

279
00:15:31.200 --> 00:15:34.559
and said, see, we passed it in our state. We

280
00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:38.159
have a government run health care in Massachusetts hadn't actually

281
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:40.840
taken effect as soon as he lost, and I'm going

282
00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:42.919
to do this in the whole country. It's so wonderful

283
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:46.159
the one that hadn't taken effect, that I'm gonna do

284
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:48.440
this the whole country. As soon as he lost the

285
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:52.559
election in Massachusetts, they went back and undid they repealed

286
00:15:52.600 --> 00:15:55.519
that law. Why because they knew it would never work,

287
00:15:55.879 --> 00:15:58.600
that it was a big failure. They're willing to impose

288
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:03.240
it on the whole country, but not on Massachusetts. In Vermont,

289
00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:11.440
Bernie Sanders and others passed Obamacare single payer in Vermont,

290
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:14.440
but it was so bad they had to repeal it.

291
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:20.279
But the guy who lives in Vermont saw Obamacare single

292
00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:24.200
payer fail in Obamacare wants to take the whole single

293
00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:28.039
payer and make Obamacare even bigger and more government control

294
00:16:28.519 --> 00:16:30.720
for the whole country, even though in his own state

295
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:35.879
they rejected it as a failure. So the idea of

296
00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:38.279
starting things at the state level good or bad, and

297
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:40.519
finding out that's a bad idea, let's not do that,

298
00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.440
or that's a good idea, Let's try it in some

299
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:45.639
other states. Maybe it only works in square states, you know, then,

300
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:49.279
but you find out what that is. It really gives

301
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.639
us an opportunity to reform government. And I don't think

302
00:16:53.639 --> 00:16:55.960
there's any fixing the welfare system or getting it down

303
00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:59.240
to a reasonable level without moving it to the states

304
00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:00.600
and having that competition.

305
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:04.359
Well, exactly because you start incentivizing the right things that

306
00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:08.079
you pointed out, Grover, and we have been disincentivizing it,

307
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:11.119
and we have been doing the things that have grown.

308
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:14.240
I mean, this is common sense. You know, what you

309
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:17.119
feed will grow, what you don't feed will shrink, right,

310
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:22.160
and so, and for some reason, because of political argument

311
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.119
and debate and advantage, call it what you want, we've

312
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:28.200
continued to do the wrong things. But we're smarter than this,

313
00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:30.960
and maybe this is the time to really do something

314
00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:33.759
about it, because there's enough evidence. Just like you said

315
00:17:33.799 --> 00:17:36.640
with Bernie Sanders, it didn't work in Vermont. But yet

316
00:17:36.720 --> 00:17:39.119
it's like it's the typical refrain of the left and

317
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:41.519
communists is that we just didn't have enough time, we

318
00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:43.720
didn't have enough money. It wasn't big enough. If it

319
00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:46.279
was only big enough, we would show you that it works.

320
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:48.960
Of course, now you've had hundreds of years to prove

321
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:52.000
that theory, and each time it's a disaster.

322
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:53.799
Yeah.

323
00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:58.160
Absolutely, And that Switzerland is kind of like the United

324
00:17:58.200 --> 00:18:01.119
States and that has cantons instead of states. But they

325
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:04.720
have a lot of autonomy and they keep their government

326
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:07.880
small compared to all the rest of Europe because they

327
00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:10.400
do things at the local level and then decide not

328
00:18:10.440 --> 00:18:13.000
to do them at the national level. We have more

329
00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:15.480
things done at the state level than Europe does. They

330
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:21.039
tend to be all top down there. Competing governments even

331
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:24.920
help keep other governments honest and let them know what

332
00:18:25.039 --> 00:18:27.640
works and what doesn't work, right, you know.

333
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.759
I want to talk about affordability. Affordability to me is like,

334
00:18:31.240 --> 00:18:34.640
you know, the Democrats have really kind of hijacked the term,

335
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:36.839
you know, and it's surprising because they did it very

336
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:40.599
quickly and effectively, you know, particularly with the race in

337
00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:43.720
New York. Talking about affordability, well, you can talk, like

338
00:18:43.880 --> 00:18:46.119
Donald Trump said, you can talk about affordability, but do

339
00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:48.200
you do it. I mean it's like saying, hey, look

340
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:51.319
at I hit home runs, but you know, I look

341
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:53.680
through halfway the season and you've only hit two home

342
00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:56.680
runs for two hundred at bets. No, you don't hit

343
00:18:56.720 --> 00:18:58.680
home runs. You strike out a lot, or you you know,

344
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:00.759
one thing or another, but you're not hitting home runs.

345
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:02.920
You're not a home run hitter. And this is what

346
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:07.119
the Democrats are. They say, we're about affordability. Where where

347
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:10.279
are you doing anything that's affordable? And on the other hand,

348
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:12.880
you've got Donald Trump, This big beautiful bill is going

349
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:16.480
to slap them right in the forehead because this is

350
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:19.799
about affordability and it's just around the corner and you're

351
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:21.319
not going to be able to stop that grover.

352
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:25.440
There are two parts to affordability. One is the cost

353
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:28.599
of goods and service and housing and healthcare and everything.

354
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:30.880
That's the cost part. The other is how much money

355
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:33.519
you have, how much income you have. Everything can become

356
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:36.759
more affordable if no prices changed, but you get paid

357
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:40.079
twice as much, not everything's much more affordable than it

358
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:42.799
used to be, even though prices didn't change. Things can

359
00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:47.240
become very unaffordable without you losing any income. But if

360
00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:50.519
prices go up and your income doesn't change. What happened

361
00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:55.000
under Biden is prices went up and the average median

362
00:19:55.079 --> 00:20:00.000
income fell. In four years, people were poorer on average

363
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:04.680
average them all together poorer than they were before. And

364
00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:08.960
that and prices went up. What we have now is

365
00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:13.240
prices are not increasing as rapidly as we have inflations

366
00:20:13.319 --> 00:20:15.640
down from where it was a lot down from where

367
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:18.839
it was under Biden, and wages this year are up

368
00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:22.160
about twelve hundred dollars fifteen hundred dollars as opposed to

369
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:27.240
down six hundred for all of the Biden To get

370
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:31.640
the negative, we got poorer not just because prices went up,

371
00:20:31.640 --> 00:20:36.200
but in real dollar terms as well. So we need

372
00:20:36.640 --> 00:20:40.359
to continue the policies we have, which are pro growth,

373
00:20:40.839 --> 00:20:46.000
pro higher income, lower taxes on businesses so people they

374
00:20:46.039 --> 00:20:49.960
create more jobs, people can get paid more faster depreciation

375
00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:52.839
so that people when build people build factories, that'll pay

376
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:55.079
taxes on building the factory. Why would we do that,

377
00:20:55.119 --> 00:20:59.039
Why would we try and discourage people from building jobs

378
00:20:59.079 --> 00:21:03.599
and opportunities. I don't want to subsidize it with subsidies

379
00:21:03.640 --> 00:21:05.559
or whatever. But I don't want to tax for crying

380
00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:09.400
out loud exactly. So we really do have a wonderful

381
00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:12.960
opportunity over the next several years with keeping prices down

382
00:21:13.400 --> 00:21:16.799
and with energy. You're seeing the cost of gasoline at

383
00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:19.559
least I'm noticing it in d C, which has high

384
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:23.880
taxes but not compared to California, A right, but those

385
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:25.880
but they're not going down because DC's kind of taxes.

386
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:29.799
They're going down because the President has a pro energy,

387
00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:35.279
pro growth, pro exploration policy on real energy, not the

388
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:39.240
bake believe energy that costs tax dollars to subsidize exactly.

389
00:21:39.400 --> 00:21:41.839
And of course, with AI around the corner, I think

390
00:21:42.119 --> 00:21:46.359
pal being replaced what in May is he gets replaced

391
00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:48.720
in May, if not sooner. I think this is all

392
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:51.440
a positive effect in terms of what that will do.

393
00:21:51.519 --> 00:21:53.240
That you have somebody there at the FED that kind

394
00:21:53.240 --> 00:21:56.119
of understands how the economy works and takes it out

395
00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:57.240
of the political realm.

396
00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:00.680
Right absolutely, And the President wants to do now what

397
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:02.599
he tried to do in the first term, and that

398
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:07.559
is end the tax on inflation by allowing the just

399
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:12.279
the the Treasury Department to have a rule making which

400
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:15.079
says when you pay capital gains because you sold your

401
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:17.880
house or a small business, or a farm or a

402
00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:20.680
ranch or land, or stocks that you own when you

403
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:23.240
right now, you pay taxes on the game. And the

404
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:26.119
gain is some of it's real, a lot of it's

405
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:29.680
just inflation. Twenty the value of your house is Biden inflation.

406
00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:32.759
That's not real. You sell your house, that's you know,

407
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:36.680
you're paying taxes on the gain that you had, which

408
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:42.079
is just inflation. The President's that effort would say take

409
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:45.480
the inflation out and you only pay capital gains taxes

410
00:22:45.519 --> 00:22:48.799
on real gains. That cuts the cost when you sell

411
00:22:48.839 --> 00:22:51.680
your house by more than half, if you own stocks

412
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:53.799
for a long period of time, by more than half.

413
00:22:54.119 --> 00:22:58.359
It is a huge driver of new investment and making

414
00:22:58.519 --> 00:23:01.720
every American percent of people own their own houses, another

415
00:23:01.759 --> 00:23:04.480
sixty percent own shares of stock. I mean, these are

416
00:23:04.519 --> 00:23:07.480
all people who would benefit, people who have small businesses

417
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:09.880
that they hope some day to sell. This is a

418
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:14.319
way to dramatically increase the wealth and the opportunity of

419
00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:18.400
Americans and reduce Why should the government get paid because

420
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:22.200
the government inflicts inflation exactly and me and everybody else.

421
00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:23.880
And that says now you have to pay us work.

422
00:23:23.880 --> 00:23:26.000
As I say, you're rich because we've printed so much money.

423
00:23:26.200 --> 00:23:27.960
All Right, we're going to wrap things up on the

424
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:31.559
good news, and that is income tax refunds. Yes, they're

425
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:34.240
going to look good this next year. Right, they are.

426
00:23:34.359 --> 00:23:38.000
If you are a if you get tips, if you're

427
00:23:38.039 --> 00:23:41.079
a waiter or a bartender. To zero point two million

428
00:23:42.079 --> 00:23:44.960
waiters in the country, about eight hundred thousand bartenders, several

429
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:48.039
hundred thousand people who work at casinos for tips. You

430
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:50.119
have a couple hundred thousand people who do take care

431
00:23:50.119 --> 00:23:54.559
of pets also getting tips. Uber drivers, lift drivers, a

432
00:23:54.559 --> 00:23:56.599
lot of the gig economy, the guys who deliver things

433
00:23:56.599 --> 00:23:59.400
at your door, people who work on tips. Fund twenty

434
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:01.599
five thousand is the first twenty five thousand dollars of

435
00:24:01.640 --> 00:24:04.119
tips they will not have to pay taxes on. And

436
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:07.319
that's true whether you're an independent contractor or an employee

437
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:09.599
of a company, whether you pool your tips at a

438
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:14.200
restaurant or get them individually. And because it's new, a

439
00:24:14.200 --> 00:24:17.200
lot of people didn't withhold on the assumption that you

440
00:24:17.240 --> 00:24:20.759
wouldn't have to pay taxes on. And also remember everyone

441
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:23.359
with a child got a bigger child tax credit. The

442
00:24:23.480 --> 00:24:28.160
personal income deductive deduction, standard deduction got increased as well.

443
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:31.000
There are a lot of changes that reduce your taxes.

444
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:33.440
And if people don't go back and you know, change

445
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:37.039
all their how much they get deducted out of each month, Hey,

446
00:24:37.480 --> 00:24:40.079
they're going to find on April fifteenth they're getting a

447
00:24:40.119 --> 00:24:42.319
bigger check than usual. And then in the future you

448
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:44.759
want to organize it because you don't want the government to.

449
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:45.599
Have no money early.

450
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:48.559
You got to keep it each month. But it is

451
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:54.079
a reminder of how significant the Republican Trump tax cuts are.

452
00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:57.720
Now we're talking about affordability here, something like thirty billion

453
00:24:57.799 --> 00:25:02.640
dollars in their pockets, as utimated by the investment in

454
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:06.039
bank and financial services. Piper Sandler, I mean, that's a

455
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:07.279
huge numbered, Grover.

It's a big number, and it's a good number for families,

457
00:25:10.680 --> 00:25:13.440
and it's going to make Christmas easier for people. And

458
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:14.920
we need to do even better next.

459
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:17.039
Year, and I think we can. He's a President of

524
00:29:01.640 --> 00:29:06.079
Bill Martinez here with doctor John Zamaria from stream dot Org. John, Hey,

525
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:09.519
we made it through Thanksgiving, okay, right, yeah yeah, and

526
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:13.160
we're often rolling into the advent weeks. Of course, this

527
00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:17.559
week is all about hope, lots to be hopeful for,

528
00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:21.400
and then of course next week we'll transition into peace.

529
00:29:24.279 --> 00:29:27.720
Well maybe peace, not too soon. I don't want there

530
00:29:27.720 --> 00:29:31.759
to be peace in the Western Hemisphere entirely until the

531
00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:36.759
government of Venezuela has been overthrown. Now I'm not normally

532
00:29:36.799 --> 00:29:42.359
an interventionist, but this is different. This is like the

533
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:44.799
Cuban missile crisis, and I don't think a lot of

534
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:49.519
Americans understand what the stakes are. It's partly about fentanyl

535
00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:53.240
being smuggled in the country. It's partly about than as

536
00:29:53.279 --> 00:29:56.359
Weel and being a base for Chinese spy operations against

537
00:29:56.440 --> 00:30:00.000
America and to a lesser degree, Russia. But it's mostly

538
00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:06.759
about Venezuela is run by a criminal narco terrorist cartel

539
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:11.119
that shipped tens of thousands of young men of military

540
00:30:11.160 --> 00:30:15.400
age into America to form criminal gangs in our cities.

541
00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:20.960
But really, the key thing is that the twenty twenty

542
00:30:21.039 --> 00:30:25.200
election and many elections before it, and some elections since

543
00:30:25.240 --> 00:30:30.519
then that were stolen for the Democrats, or sometimes in

544
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:35.279
the primary is stolen for Swiss Republicans, were stolen using

545
00:30:35.359 --> 00:30:40.160
software produced in Venezuela by the company smart Manic, which

546
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:44.079
was acquired by Dominion, thereby finding its way into our

547
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:47.480
election machines all across the country. I've seen reports that

548
00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:52.279
as far back as two thousand and eight this software

549
00:30:52.400 --> 00:30:56.039
was used to help Barack Obama win the primaries against

550
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:58.599
Hillary Clinton. I don't know if that's true. For sure,

551
00:30:59.839 --> 00:31:06.839
information is coming in thanks to Venezuelan defector. His name

552
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:15.720
is Google Barrios. Let's call him Barrios. Okay, no, I

553
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:21.720
think Carvallo Carvalio, Senuel Carvagaliel used to be the director

554
00:31:21.720 --> 00:31:26.440
of military intelligence for the Venezuelan communist government. So that's

555
00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:31.839
like having John Brennan, you know, turning States with John.

556
00:31:31.880 --> 00:31:33.799
Can you imagine, I mean, just a moment here, I mean,

557
00:31:33.960 --> 00:31:38.000
my head is busting here because here we're talking Venezuela

558
00:31:38.599 --> 00:31:43.000
impacting the United States of America. You you liken it

559
00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:46.519
to the missile Cuban missile crisis, but it's worse yet,

560
00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:50.079
because at least the Cuban missile crisis. We saw it,

561
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:51.480
we did something about it.

562
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:51.960
Here.

563
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:55.680
This has been going on, as you say, for decades.

564
00:31:56.440 --> 00:32:03.519
Yeah, yeah, So Carvalyol was ended up getting arrested. The

565
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:06.880
Trump administration got him extra nited from Spain. He's now

566
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:13.160
in custody. Thank god, he didn't hang himself in his cell.

567
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:15.279
We say epstein. He didn't epstein.

568
00:32:15.440 --> 00:32:18.240
He didn't epstein himself. Yeah, he didn't. Betty White himself.

569
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:21.599
I wrote a column when Betty White passed. Betty White

570
00:32:21.599 --> 00:32:24.559
didn't kill herself. But anyway, that's a whole other issue.

571
00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:29.279
He wrote. If you go to the Dallas Express, they

572
00:32:29.359 --> 00:32:33.559
have the letter that mister Carvaglio, who's now in protective custody,

573
00:32:33.839 --> 00:32:39.559
that he sent President Trump. And here's one key part.

574
00:32:41.039 --> 00:32:44.880
He writes, for twenty years, the Venezuela regime sent spies

575
00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:48.039
into your country. Many are still there, some disguise as

576
00:32:48.079 --> 00:32:52.119
members of the Venezuelan opposition. Cuban intelligence showed me their

577
00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:55.839
networks inside your naval basis on the East coast. They

578
00:32:55.880 --> 00:33:00.279
bragged about having sent thousands of spies over decades. Some

579
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:10.119
now career politicians, US diplomats and CIA officers were paid.

580
00:33:10.200 --> 00:33:14.319
Was this Chaves and Maduro remaining in power. These Americans

581
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:18.880
acted as spies for Cuban Venezuela, and some remain active

582
00:33:18.960 --> 00:33:19.680
to this day.

583
00:33:20.160 --> 00:33:20.720
Unquote.

584
00:33:21.000 --> 00:33:23.160
You can read all that at the Dallas Express, a

585
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:27.079
great little conservative website. Lynndel TV's got a great show

586
00:33:27.079 --> 00:33:32.920
about it with Emerald Robinson and Patrick Byrne. Who are

587
00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:40.640
these politicians, career politicians who are spies for or getting

588
00:33:40.680 --> 00:33:44.400
bribed by the Venezuelan drug cartel, which remember, has a

589
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:47.359
huge amount of money to throw around. All that federyl

590
00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:54.480
doesn't come free. Which politicians have quintupled or multiplied their

591
00:33:54.480 --> 00:33:57.880
network by twenty or thirty times while in office, and

592
00:33:57.920 --> 00:34:00.880
we can't figure out how it's not all in or trading.

593
00:34:01.200 --> 00:34:05.240
Some of it is probably ultimately fentanyl money. I wonder

594
00:34:05.240 --> 00:34:08.800
if any of the seditious six members of Congress who

595
00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:12.119
are calling on the US military to refuse Donald Trump's

596
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:16.119
orders because remember Trump's getting ready to overthrow the Venezuelan government.

597
00:34:16.760 --> 00:34:19.599
I wonder, or those are trying to remove Pete Hegseth

598
00:34:19.719 --> 00:34:23.079
as Secretary of War, how many of them have secret

599
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:26.599
links to Caracas. We might only find out if the

600
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:30.639
Venezuelan regime indeed collapses, and that would explain why certain

601
00:34:30.679 --> 00:34:34.760
congressmen and senators are panicking at the prospect that we

602
00:34:34.800 --> 00:34:39.079
will overthrow that government. Why Senator Mark Warner went on

603
00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:45.760
TV and called on US troops to potentially overthrow President Trump.

604
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:48.519
Here's a quote. I think in many ways, the uniform

605
00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:53.360
military may help save us from this president unquote. If

606
00:34:53.400 --> 00:34:55.800
that's not a call for a military coup, I would

607
00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:57.280
like to know what it is that he is.

608
00:34:57.320 --> 00:35:01.000
Calling for exactly Well, and the other thing too. You

609
00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:03.679
got guy Congressman Jim Hines. I don't know if you

610
00:35:04.119 --> 00:35:07.280
heard him this morning saying that there's no such thing

611
00:35:07.920 --> 00:35:14.119
as a narco terrorist. I mean, that's like our buddy

612
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:19.800
or Nadler, Jerry Nadler is saying there's no such thing

613
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:21.920
as the deep state. How delusional.

614
00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:28.719
It's not delusional. It's a propaganda talking point from his paymasters.

615
00:35:28.760 --> 00:35:31.559
I think he just basically admitted that he works for them.

616
00:35:31.800 --> 00:35:34.920
Who else would say something like that. There are small

617
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:38.280
children who would who understand, who know better than that.

618
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:41.239
So you know that guy just basically told us he

619
00:35:41.679 --> 00:35:46.480
works for But I think the biggest part of the

620
00:35:46.599 --> 00:35:52.079
story is Carvaaliel. Remember the former head of Intelligence for

621
00:35:52.119 --> 00:35:56.960
the Venezuelan communist dictatorship that stole its election in two

622
00:35:57.039 --> 00:36:02.800
thousand and six. He said that he was talking about that.

623
00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:08.519
Remember in twenty twenty and in many other elections, in

624
00:36:08.639 --> 00:36:12.320
down ballot races in twenty twenty four, key swing states

625
00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:15.000
would be leaning Republican, and then all of a sudden

626
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:18.159
votes would come in just in the right amounts to

627
00:36:18.239 --> 00:36:22.239
tip the states well well, one after another, and the

628
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:25.280
number of fake votes to be injected was so great

629
00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:27.159
that it caused the system to crash and they had

630
00:36:27.159 --> 00:36:32.239
to stop counting overnight. Remember that in twenty oh yeah, well,

631
00:36:32.360 --> 00:36:35.719
a lot of those swing states, the vote counting was

632
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:41.519
controlled by Dominion Systems, a now defunct company, using software

633
00:36:41.679 --> 00:36:48.360
it acquired from Smartmatic Corporation, founded in Venezuela. The Venezuelan

634
00:36:48.400 --> 00:36:52.199
government founded the software company in order to steal elections

635
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:56.519
in Venezuela. And then they went global and they started

636
00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:00.960
selling it to be used in I think seventy two

637
00:37:01.039 --> 00:37:01.760
other countries.

638
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:03.719
I was going to ask you how many other countries

639
00:37:03.719 --> 00:37:04.639
did they expand.

640
00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:06.920
Seventy two, but the most important one is our country.

641
00:37:07.000 --> 00:37:10.599
And it started being used according to several reports in

642
00:37:10.639 --> 00:37:13.400
two thousand and eight. This is the quote from the

643
00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:18.000
Venezuelan spy master. Smartmatic was born as an electoral tool

644
00:37:18.199 --> 00:37:21.719
of the Venezuelan regime, but soon derived into a tool

645
00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:24.599
to help keep the regime stay in power forever. I

646
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:26.599
know this because I was placed at the head of

647
00:37:26.639 --> 00:37:30.400
it of the National Electoral Council in his position, and

648
00:37:30.480 --> 00:37:34.480
he reported directly to me. The Smartmatic system can be altered.

649
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:38.000
This is a fact. This technology was later exported abroad,

650
00:37:38.039 --> 00:37:41.480
including too the United States. Okay, so the software can

651
00:37:41.519 --> 00:37:44.360
be hacked to fake the vote count all right. Back

652
00:37:44.400 --> 00:37:51.519
to his text, This is Cairovalio regime operatives maintain relationships

653
00:37:51.559 --> 00:37:58.000
with election officials and voting machine companies inside your country. Again,

654
00:37:58.360 --> 00:38:02.719
Venezuelan regime operation. There's maintained relationships with election officials and

655
00:38:02.800 --> 00:38:06.840
voting machine companies inside America. Back to Corrilo. I do

656
00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:09.679
not claim that every election is stolen, but I stay

657
00:38:09.719 --> 00:38:12.599
with certainty that elections can be rigged with the software

658
00:38:12.960 --> 00:38:16.280
and has been used to do so. Unquote.

659
00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:21.639
Right, Well, let's go back to what one senator had

660
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:25.760
said that if your faults in one thing, it's full

661
00:38:25.800 --> 00:38:29.360
so in omnibus in all things. Right, So if you've

662
00:38:29.360 --> 00:38:33.280
got a little bit of corruption. It's all corrupt. Yeah.

663
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:35.480
What he's just told is is that there's a back

664
00:38:35.519 --> 00:38:38.480
door in the smartmatic software and therefore in the dominion

665
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:42.639
software that allows election officials to tinker with the results.

666
00:38:42.920 --> 00:38:45.039
This is exactly what Trump was trying to prove in

667
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:48.920
twenty twenty. And people like William Barr and Mike Pompeo

Welcome back, Bill Martinez here with doctor John's Merrick John.

754
00:43:26.400 --> 00:43:29.719
As you were saying, you know, this whole thing was

755
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:33.119
such a setup, and now all these things that we

756
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:35.960
have suspected, there was lots of smoke, and we've been

757
00:43:35.960 --> 00:43:38.519
looking for fire. You and I have said for many years.

758
00:43:38.880 --> 00:43:41.719
There there's got to be you know, there's gonna be

759
00:43:41.760 --> 00:43:45.000
one string that is pulled that unravels this whole thing.

760
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:49.159
This may be, mister Crabalo, may be that string what

761
00:43:49.400 --> 00:43:50.960
opens this whole door, right.

762
00:43:51.280 --> 00:43:55.599
That's yes. His his testimony is crucial. Trump needs to

763
00:43:55.639 --> 00:43:58.239
go on TV and talk about it, to explain that

764
00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:02.159
this is why we are overthrowing the Venezuelan government bert

765
00:44:02.199 --> 00:44:05.079
to free their people. Sure, that's great, to stop the FEDNAL,

766
00:44:05.280 --> 00:44:10.719
that's important, but none of it compares to a communist

767
00:44:11.119 --> 00:44:17.039
foreign government cooperating with American politicians, bribing them, bribing our spies,

768
00:44:17.480 --> 00:44:23.400
and controlling our elections. Exactly have you did you ever

769
00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:26.239
interview David Clements and I talk about this film? His

770
00:44:26.400 --> 00:44:31.360
film Let My People Go is absolutely amazing. It's two hours,

771
00:44:31.880 --> 00:44:37.320
it's animated, it has interviews. It really makes the complex,

772
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:42.159
confusing world of election software and election fraud. It makes

773
00:44:42.199 --> 00:44:44.639
it clear, it makes it simple. It looks like an

774
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:45.719
episode of The Jetsons.

775
00:44:46.039 --> 00:44:46.639
I recommend it.

776
00:44:46.639 --> 00:44:49.760
It's now free. It was once the most censored movie

777
00:44:49.800 --> 00:44:53.719
in America. They took it off every platform that you

778
00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:56.559
had to go on to a weird server to try

779
00:44:56.559 --> 00:44:59.480
to purchase it. When I did, someone hacked hacked my

780
00:44:59.559 --> 00:45:02.880
credit ca I mean, it was subject to the worst

781
00:45:02.920 --> 00:45:06.119
cyber attacks and censorship. Gee, why why do they have

782
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:11.679
to censor something if it's transparently ridiculous, third disprovable claims.

783
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:15.000
Well, and as you said earlier, I mean, this whole

784
00:45:15.039 --> 00:45:18.199
system is so diabolical. And look at all the people

785
00:45:18.239 --> 00:45:22.880
that supported this, uh you know, Dominion, machinery and machinations

786
00:45:22.920 --> 00:45:24.480
and that sort of thing. And that's what.

787
00:45:25.159 --> 00:45:32.239
Under Fox News and Rupert Murdoch. When when when Dominion

788
00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:36.599
filed that seven hundred million dollar lawsuit, which was absurd,

789
00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:39.800
Dominion's assets were like sixty million. How can they claim

790
00:45:39.840 --> 00:45:44.239
seven hundred million dollars in damages? The trumb team was

791
00:45:44.280 --> 00:45:47.280
still trying to prove the election, the election fraud. They

792
00:45:47.320 --> 00:45:51.039
were having meetings of a loyal, loyal spy, loyal deep

793
00:45:51.079 --> 00:45:53.880
state people, the few loyal deep state people presenting all

794
00:45:53.920 --> 00:45:57.920
the all the receipts about Dominion. It would have come

795
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:02.719
out in discovery if Fox had defended the lawsuit. Mike

796
00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:06.599
Pompeo was in that meeting. He left that meeting, according

797
00:46:06.599 --> 00:46:09.840
to my sources, calls Fox News. Fox News settled the

798
00:46:09.920 --> 00:46:13.639
next day for an absurd seven hundred million dollars. We've

799
00:46:13.679 --> 00:46:17.199
never seen the money transferred, so it was probably just

800
00:46:17.239 --> 00:46:21.679
a fake paper transaction. They fired Tucker Carlson. They tried

801
00:46:21.800 --> 00:46:26.480
and They proceeded to try to sue into oblivion Mike Lindell,

802
00:46:26.840 --> 00:46:31.559
Eric attacks as Sydney Powell, and to disbar or prosecute

803
00:46:31.800 --> 00:46:37.639
Sydney Powell, John Eastman, Rudy Giuliani, everyone who raised any

804
00:46:37.719 --> 00:46:41.599
question about the election fraud. They tried to destroy them.

805
00:46:41.639 --> 00:46:44.960
If they couldn't imprison them in solitary confinement like the

806
00:46:45.840 --> 00:46:50.360
January sixth there's they wanted to disbar them and bankrupt

807
00:46:50.360 --> 00:46:54.519
them and terrify them. It was the closest, excuse me,

808
00:46:55.159 --> 00:46:58.199
it was the closest America has come to being a

809
00:46:58.280 --> 00:47:04.920
totalitarian state since nineteen seventeen, when Woodrow Wilson threw anyone

810
00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:07.320
opposed to the First World War into prison.

811
00:47:07.880 --> 00:47:12.440
Right exactly. Well, and John, I mean, what does this

812
00:47:12.559 --> 00:47:16.000
say about, you know, the danger that our government is

813
00:47:16.039 --> 00:47:19.760
in right now? I mean, you've got all these you know,

814
00:47:19.800 --> 00:47:21.679
all these people that you think you could trust, these

815
00:47:21.719 --> 00:47:24.679
elected officials you know, you mentioned, you know, Mike Pants

816
00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:26.719
and all these I mean, you know, over the years,

817
00:47:26.760 --> 00:47:29.039
we've seen their compromise.

818
00:47:29.480 --> 00:47:31.519
It's not just that they're weak. It's not just that

819
00:47:31.559 --> 00:47:35.880
they're weak. They're not on our side at best. At best,

820
00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:40.400
they're willing to see leftists, Marxist Democrats come to power

821
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:44.400
win elections in order to keep conservatives and populist from

822
00:47:44.400 --> 00:47:47.880
controlling the Republican Party, and so in that those people

823
00:47:48.159 --> 00:47:50.920
are like the Washington generals whose job it was every

824
00:47:51.000 --> 00:47:53.679
night to go out and lose graciously to the Harlem

825
00:47:53.760 --> 00:47:56.679
lobe trotters. Right, but some of them are definitely on

826
00:47:56.760 --> 00:48:00.239
the tape. Some of them are definitely getting money from

827
00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:05.199
Venezuela and other countries or drug dealers. Some of them

828
00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:08.679
are one hundred percent on the take. And that helps

829
00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:13.639
explain why it's so hard to find courage and integrity

830
00:48:13.719 --> 00:48:16.599
on the right. And I'm happy to see the Trump

831
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:22.000
administration is taking action about this domestically, but really, I

832
00:48:22.039 --> 00:48:24.880
think the only thing that's going to solve this, and

833
00:48:25.199 --> 00:48:28.679
the only place where Trump's hands aren't tied by federal

834
00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:34.840
judges exceeding their authority, is the military. Our military needs

835
00:48:34.880 --> 00:48:38.079
to bring down the Venezuelan government and needs to bring

836
00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:42.840
back the receipts proving election fraud in twenty twenty and

837
00:48:42.960 --> 00:48:46.119
showing that it probably happened on down ballot races in

838
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:48.719
twenty twenty four and that it's going to happen again

839
00:48:48.760 --> 00:48:52.079
in the midterms unless we get rid of the election machines,

840
00:48:52.639 --> 00:48:55.760
cut them off. Everything needs to be same day voting,

841
00:48:55.920 --> 00:49:00.559
hand counted paper ballots. Anything else can and will be

842
00:49:00.760 --> 00:49:07.039
hacked by companies whose software was written by Venezuelan communists.

843
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:10.239
Is there enough intestinal fortitude within the Republican Party to

844
00:49:10.239 --> 00:49:12.679
make this happen because the Democrats aren't going to do it?

845
00:49:12.920 --> 00:49:16.239
Of course not. Well, the problem is the Democrats use

846
00:49:16.360 --> 00:49:21.400
this software to steal general elections. The Republican the Rhinos

847
00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:26.239
used the same software to steal primary elections from mega candidates.

848
00:49:26.559 --> 00:49:30.920
So you've got a collusion between the Republican establishment and

849
00:49:31.000 --> 00:49:35.800
the left wing Democrats. Just remember Dick Cheney's funeral. You

850
00:49:35.920 --> 00:49:37.840
had all these people who used to call him a

851
00:49:37.880 --> 00:49:41.000
war criminal all gathering to cry about him because he

852
00:49:41.119 --> 00:49:45.599
was so wonderful, because I guess he was really on

853
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:46.599
the other side too.

854
00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:50.599
Yeah right, yeah, yeah, that was quite It's interesting. You

855
00:49:50.599 --> 00:49:53.679
should bring that up. John. We got about five minutes

856
00:49:53.760 --> 00:49:56.639
left and I wanted to get your read on, you know,

857
00:49:56.800 --> 00:50:00.760
all this fraud in Minneapolis. I mean this money. We're

858
00:50:00.800 --> 00:50:03.920
talking billions of dollars, billions upon billions of dollars here,

859
00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:06.880
and it needs to go ahead.

860
00:50:06.880 --> 00:50:12.599
Look, if you want lots of opera and pasta, import Italians.

861
00:50:12.960 --> 00:50:17.159
If you want lots of welfare fraud, imports Somalians because

862
00:50:17.159 --> 00:50:20.639
it seems to be their national cuisine. We've got a

863
00:50:20.679 --> 00:50:25.039
piece up at stream dot org by my friend Jules Gomez.

864
00:50:25.519 --> 00:50:31.199
Somali Islamis are running from Sweden after being accused of

865
00:50:31.559 --> 00:50:36.239
swindling millions in welfare benefits and sending it to Islamic

866
00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:39.639
terrorist squads back in Somalia. In other words, they're doing

867
00:50:39.679 --> 00:50:43.320
the same thing it's to Swedes in Sweden that they're

868
00:50:43.320 --> 00:50:47.199
doing to Norwegians in Minnesota. They are gaming the system

869
00:50:47.960 --> 00:50:51.440
and finding ways to milk it, to rape the system

870
00:50:51.480 --> 00:50:55.039
for benefits, and then when anyone tries to criticize them,

871
00:50:55.079 --> 00:50:58.880
tries to even prosecute them with evidence, they scream racism

872
00:50:58.880 --> 00:51:00.840
and they go to the media. And we actually have

873
00:51:01.079 --> 00:51:05.280
proof of a corrupt nonprofit that was robin the taxpayer

874
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:09.280
and sending the money to Somali terrorists. And when they

875
00:51:09.320 --> 00:51:13.400
were asked by a regulatory agency to prove what they

876
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:15.960
were doing, to show some receipts, they said, we're going

877
00:51:16.039 --> 00:51:18.119
to go public and we're going to accuse you of racism,

878
00:51:18.119 --> 00:51:20.679
and they backed down, and they just kept shoveling money,

879
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:25.719
hundreds of millions of dollars being sent to Muslim terrorist

880
00:51:25.800 --> 00:51:31.960
groups in Somalia. Politicians running for office speaking Somali. The

881
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:35.679
mayor of Minneapolis, the white mayor, only won reelection against

882
00:51:35.719 --> 00:51:40.639
this inbred Somali who looked like seven generations of cousins

883
00:51:40.639 --> 00:51:43.199
had married because they probably had. The only way he

884
00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:47.760
beat this Somali immigrant who barely spoke English was he

885
00:51:47.840 --> 00:51:53.639
exploited tribal hostilities within the Somali community exactly. That's like

886
00:51:53.679 --> 00:51:56.679
being a British colonial official trying to run a piece

887
00:51:56.679 --> 00:51:59.880
of Afghanistan. That's not supposed to be how American states

888
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:03.199
in cities work. But the Democrats opened the border and

889
00:52:03.239 --> 00:52:07.599
brought as many Third worlders in as they could to

890
00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:12.559
swell the census. Brought them illegally or illegally to inflate

891
00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:15.840
the numbers with the census, but also to use them

892
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:19.760
to vote illegally in our elections. It's not so much

893
00:52:19.800 --> 00:52:22.960
that illegal immigrants go out and vote. Their names get

894
00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:26.239
into the system through the motor voter law, and then

895
00:52:26.320 --> 00:52:31.679
those names are used by the corrupt machines like smartmatics

896
00:52:31.800 --> 00:52:36.559
machines and dominions machines. Those names are used. I've been

897
00:52:36.599 --> 00:52:39.480
told I can't prove it in court, but dominions out

898
00:52:39.480 --> 00:52:43.519
of business now. Those names are used to create fake

899
00:52:43.639 --> 00:52:48.400
votes that are injected when needed during crucial elections. So

900
00:52:48.599 --> 00:52:52.079
that's how the whole corrupt system works. And it's why

901
00:52:52.119 --> 00:52:55.480
Donald Trump was seen as such a threat to that

902
00:52:55.599 --> 00:52:58.239
system that two different people try to kill him, two

903
00:52:58.280 --> 00:53:02.360
people with weird deep state life that somehow never get investigated.

904
00:53:02.719 --> 00:53:03.119
How is it?

905
00:53:03.480 --> 00:53:07.679
How did to Hiss lone Wolf loan gunman assassins get

906
00:53:07.760 --> 00:53:10.920
so close to killing Donald Trump? When you know this

907
00:53:10.960 --> 00:53:13.400
didn't happen to Biden, This didn't happen to Obama, this

908
00:53:13.400 --> 00:53:15.639
didn't happen to George W. Bush. At the height of

909
00:53:15.639 --> 00:53:18.719
the Iraq War, all of a sudden, the Secret Service

910
00:53:19.079 --> 00:53:20.400
becomes really incompetent.

911
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:21.159
Huh.

912
00:53:21.199 --> 00:53:23.159
I wonder what's going on there.

913
00:53:23.199 --> 00:53:25.679
Right exactly now? It smells to high heaven, There's no

914
00:53:25.719 --> 00:53:29.280
doubt about it. John. You know, the thing is is

915
00:53:29.320 --> 00:53:33.960
that you know, with this diabolical, you know, plan that

916
00:53:34.079 --> 00:53:38.400
is being executed by these foreign agents, it's more than

917
00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:43.239
just the vote. I mean, they are penetrating our treasury

918
00:53:43.639 --> 00:53:46.840
we're thirty eight trillion dollars in counting in debt and

919
00:53:46.920 --> 00:53:50.280
all this fraud and waste that is existing within our country.

920
00:53:50.320 --> 00:53:54.000
It's been estimated anywhere from twenty to thirty percent. That

921
00:53:54.039 --> 00:53:56.480
would go a long way in solving a lot of

922
00:53:56.519 --> 00:53:59.320
problems and maybe, you know, getting us further down the

923
00:53:59.400 --> 00:54:02.840
road to affordability. And the American people who are suffering

924
00:54:02.920 --> 00:54:06.679
right now because of these actions need to come out

925
00:54:06.719 --> 00:54:09.320
in mass and say enough is enough. Right, we got

926
00:54:09.360 --> 00:54:11.000
a minute left, I'm gonna let you wrap it up.

927
00:54:11.440 --> 00:54:13.679
Absolutely, we have to demand an end to the use

928
00:54:13.719 --> 00:54:17.760
of all electronic voting. That's the most crucial thing. That's

929
00:54:17.840 --> 00:54:20.719
like you're being kidnapped. You have to grab control of

930
00:54:20.719 --> 00:54:24.360
the drivers of the steering wheel. We have to support

931
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.039
President Trump in trying to clean out the deep state.

932
00:54:28.639 --> 00:54:32.239
We have to support ice. There is one thousand percent

933
00:54:32.360 --> 00:54:37.440
increase in violence against immigration officers. And we have to

934
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:43.440
protest local mayors and governors who lawlessly refuse to enforce

935
00:54:43.480 --> 00:54:48.159
our country's immigration laws and claim that removing illegal immigrants

936
00:54:48.320 --> 00:54:53.039
is ethnic cleansing. And actually Maxine Waters said that she

937
00:54:53.199 --> 00:55:00.199
compared deporting illegal immigrants to the Nazis, murdering Jews and Gypsies.

938
00:55:00.559 --> 00:55:05.880
It's staggering the dishonesty, the moral squalor, and the stupidity

939
00:55:05.920 --> 00:55:07.840
that we face day in day out.

940
00:55:08.440 --> 00:55:10.960
When was the last time Maxine Waters made any sense?

941
00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:13.639
John, I don't know that she ever did. That's probably

942
00:55:13.679 --> 00:55:16.760
how she got into office. She just did the crazy

943
00:55:16.840 --> 00:55:17.960
better than anybody else.

sharing part of your day. For more information on the show,

971
00:56:41.880 --> 00:56:44.719
you're going to Bill Martinez Live dot com. Well, we're

972
00:56:44.719 --> 00:56:47.760
going to be talking about the economy to the left,

973
00:56:48.039 --> 00:56:51.239
a bit of I don't know, a shock. I mean,

974
00:56:51.280 --> 00:56:53.360
they're they're trying to I mean it's almost like they've

975
00:56:53.400 --> 00:56:57.079
been sheering the economy should be losing and they can't

976
00:56:57.119 --> 00:57:01.880
see how well the economy is doing. And meanwhile, they

977
00:57:01.920 --> 00:57:06.119
tried to steal the affordability issue that Trump got elected on,

978
00:57:06.559 --> 00:57:09.960
and obvious the Republicans and Democrats, I mean Republicans and

979
00:57:10.679 --> 00:57:13.039
President Trumpert realized, hey, wait a minute, we shouldn't allow,

980
00:57:13.239 --> 00:57:17.440
of all people, some Marxists to take over the ability claim,

981
00:57:17.760 --> 00:57:20.599
especially when he has nothing behind it to support how

982
00:57:20.639 --> 00:57:23.440
he can deliver any kind of affordability. While we're talking

983
00:57:23.480 --> 00:57:25.599
to Eric Ware right now. He's the author of Who's

984
00:57:25.639 --> 00:57:30.119
Eating Your Buy Essential financial advice that will transform your life. Eric,

985
00:57:30.199 --> 00:57:31.599
welcome back. Good to have you with us.

986
00:57:31.719 --> 00:57:33.320
Oh, it's good to be here, and thank you so much.

987
00:57:33.880 --> 00:57:37.840
Well, the reality is everybody went to Grandma's house this

988
00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:42.280
Thanksgiving and they celebrated lower gas prices except if you

989
00:57:42.280 --> 00:57:45.159
were in California. But of course that's an anomaly in

990
00:57:45.199 --> 00:57:48.400
and of itself. Thank you very much, Governor Newsom. And

991
00:57:48.840 --> 00:57:52.760
Black Friday spending, I'll tell you. For a depressed economy

992
00:57:52.760 --> 00:57:56.960
and depressed people spent almost twelve billion dollars up nine percent?

993
00:57:57.119 --> 00:58:00.840
Right, Yeah, Yeah, that's amazing, isn't it.

994
00:58:01.800 --> 00:58:04.400
So you know, so what's what's with the narrative here?

995
00:58:04.440 --> 00:58:07.119
I mean, this has become a political narrative. It's not

996
00:58:07.239 --> 00:58:09.719
a reality. But this is what got the Democrats in

997
00:58:09.760 --> 00:58:12.559
trouble for twenty twenty four is that they liked so

998
00:58:12.679 --> 00:58:16.119
much that they lost all credibility. But you know, that's

999
00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:16.960
all they know to do.

1000
00:58:18.079 --> 00:58:22.000
No, I mean, they're they're just they're creating, they're just

1001
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:26.519
making attacks that are there. They're they're ludicrous. And if

1002
00:58:26.519 --> 00:58:29.199
you look at New York or the efforts to to

1003
00:58:29.239 --> 00:58:32.480
have rent control, the efforts to have a government step

1004
00:58:32.519 --> 00:58:37.119
in and cost property owners the inability to adjust their

1005
00:58:37.159 --> 00:58:42.199
expenses backfires because what happens is ultimately there's no more

1006
00:58:42.239 --> 00:58:44.639
supply because nobody wants to build into that market, and

1007
00:58:44.679 --> 00:58:47.840
then the man continues to grow and supply stay stagnant,

1008
00:58:47.880 --> 00:58:51.599
and ultimately when the people move out, there's massive increases

1009
00:58:51.639 --> 00:58:54.119
and rent for the next person. But it's a it

1010
00:58:54.159 --> 00:58:56.800
hasn't worked, and it doesn't work, and the policies that

1011
00:58:56.960 --> 00:59:01.440
are there in most of the of those major cities

1012
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:04.599
are just I mean, I mean what they try to

1013
00:59:04.599 --> 00:59:07.519
do to help actually hurt. So they increase taxes on

1014
00:59:07.559 --> 00:59:09.920
the on the rich, and then you'll see the people

1015
00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:12.079
are leaving New York and droves. People are leaving in

1016
00:59:12.079 --> 00:59:15.320
California and droves. And there's still great cities and great

1017
00:59:15.360 --> 00:59:18.880
places to live, and business opportunities are there. But if

1018
00:59:18.920 --> 00:59:21.639
you have flexibility, at some point you just get tired

1019
00:59:21.679 --> 00:59:21.880
of it.

1020
00:59:22.519 --> 00:59:24.800
Well, you've got to be able to make money. Eric,

1021
00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:28.440
you don't go there and invest good money to lose

1022
00:59:28.480 --> 00:59:30.519
money and just out of the goodness of your heart.

1023
00:59:30.960 --> 00:59:35.360
I mean, because we know going the road that Mamdani

1024
00:59:35.400 --> 00:59:38.159
has laid out for New Yorkers is you're opening the

1025
00:59:38.159 --> 00:59:39.199
door to slum lords.

1026
00:59:39.920 --> 00:59:44.119
Oh yeah, you're yeah, you are yeah, oh yeah yeah.

1027
00:59:44.119 --> 00:59:46.559
I mean it's you. And that's what happens. I mean,

1028
00:59:46.599 --> 00:59:49.239
if you're not if you can't increase your rent, and

1029
00:59:49.239 --> 00:59:52.159
and there there's their maintenance issues, so you you turn

1030
00:59:52.199 --> 00:59:54.639
a blind eye towards It's what it's been the history

1031
00:59:54.639 --> 00:59:56.360
of New York for for some time. This isn't a

1032
00:59:56.400 --> 01:00:00.679
new problem. I was somebody's apartment, uh in New York

1033
01:00:00.800 --> 01:00:03.360
a few months ago. They're paying seven thousand a month

1034
01:00:03.719 --> 01:00:06.719
and for rent and it's not a big place, right,

1035
01:00:06.960 --> 01:00:10.400
And you go in the apartment and they're deferred maintenance everywhere.

1036
01:00:10.440 --> 01:00:13.239
They call the landlord and they're they're slow to respond,

1037
01:00:13.280 --> 01:00:15.760
if at all. It's a major sometimes, but they just

1038
01:00:15.760 --> 01:00:18.480
do the least they possibly can. They'll have like a

1039
01:00:18.519 --> 01:00:20.320
nephew come by and try to fix it or something,

1040
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:22.760
but not like a professional.

1041
01:00:22.800 --> 01:00:26.559
Right exactly. And nephew with a YouTube video, right.

1042
01:00:26.440 --> 01:00:29.280
They're watching YouTube trying to fix the problem. That's exactly

1043
01:00:29.360 --> 01:00:30.079
what happens.

1044
01:00:30.440 --> 01:00:33.599
Well, so here we are, like I said, Black Friday

1045
01:00:33.639 --> 01:00:38.400
spending up. It seems that the attitude on the ground

1046
01:00:38.639 --> 01:00:42.039
is very positive and where things are being set up.

1047
01:00:42.079 --> 01:00:44.480
I mean, you know, the big beautiful Bill, all the

1048
01:00:44.519 --> 01:00:47.519
benefits of the big beautiful Bill won't really come into

1049
01:00:47.519 --> 01:00:50.639
full play and realization until you know, first quarter, maybe

1050
01:00:50.679 --> 01:00:53.719
second quarter to its fullest, which will be just in

1051
01:00:53.760 --> 01:00:56.400
time for the midterms. And so what are the Democrats

1052
01:00:56.480 --> 01:00:57.119
going to do then?

1053
01:01:01.119 --> 01:01:05.000
I think the midterms are I mean, it's amazing the

1054
01:01:05.079 --> 01:01:07.840
number of people that are listening to lies. I think

1055
01:01:07.880 --> 01:01:10.599
what's happening with the risk that that is, I think

1056
01:01:10.719 --> 01:01:14.960
is that people are feeling satisfied in some level. They're

1057
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:18.519
they're they're encouraged, they're spending money, and then there are

1058
01:01:18.559 --> 01:01:22.199
certain people that are just completely irritated by the Trump

1059
01:01:22.239 --> 01:01:26.480
policies and plans. The risk is that the satisfied people

1060
01:01:26.519 --> 01:01:29.320
stay home and don't vote or don't vote in numbers

1061
01:01:29.360 --> 01:01:32.880
where the people are dissatisfied, you know, quite quite honestly,

1062
01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:37.079
and quite often they'll say they'll move ahead and they

1063
01:01:37.320 --> 01:01:40.480
and they will vote. And I think that's what happened

1064
01:01:40.559 --> 01:01:42.280
in New York. So you've got to be careful with that.

1065
01:01:42.360 --> 01:01:44.599
So there is a risk but I think from a

1066
01:01:44.639 --> 01:01:49.960
policy procedure, from an economic procedure, from interest rate cycle

1067
01:01:50.079 --> 01:01:54.079
is going down now. I think there are energy oils

1068
01:01:54.079 --> 01:01:57.320
below sixty dollars a barrel. That's a big cost factor.

1069
01:01:58.280 --> 01:02:00.840
So housings are going to be easier to afford with

1070
01:02:01.239 --> 01:02:03.920
the rates coming down. So I think everywhere you look,

1071
01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:07.199
the lights are on green, and there are a few

1072
01:02:07.239 --> 01:02:10.519
cautions here and there, but it's it's a very positive environment.

1073
01:02:11.039 --> 01:02:13.599
And you've got trillions of dollars outside of the country

1074
01:02:14.119 --> 01:02:16.519
coming into the country investing. I mean, what are we

1075
01:02:16.559 --> 01:02:18.920
up to about nineteen trillion now at least.

1076
01:02:19.039 --> 01:02:22.320
And the policies and the kind of normalizing tariffs, like

1077
01:02:22.360 --> 01:02:24.440
if you tearif for me ten percent, I'll tear a

1078
01:02:24.480 --> 01:02:27.039
few ten percent. I mean, not a novel concept, but

1079
01:02:27.079 --> 01:02:29.920
for years US was tear tariffing two and being paying

1080
01:02:30.000 --> 01:02:33.280
ten twenty thirty percent tariffs. And you say, hey, we'll

1081
01:02:33.360 --> 01:02:36.360
kind of get something that rhymes with one another, and

1082
01:02:36.360 --> 01:02:38.719
another company is saying, gee, weez, I'd rather just build

1083
01:02:38.719 --> 01:02:41.880
a plant there. I'm going to open up and do

1084
01:02:41.920 --> 01:02:45.000
business in America directly and not and save the tariff money.

1085
01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:45.639
So it's been.

1086
01:02:45.519 --> 01:02:49.159
A real positive thing and these have long tails, you know.

1087
01:02:49.199 --> 01:02:51.800
I know that in a small state like South Carolina.

1088
01:02:51.840 --> 01:02:56.800
When Boeing relocated from Washington to South Carolina, it completely

1089
01:02:56.920 --> 01:02:59.719
changed that part of the state. And the same thing

1090
01:02:59.719 --> 01:03:03.039
happen And when BMW moved to Greenville, South Carolina, they

1091
01:03:03.079 --> 01:03:06.079
completely changed that part of the state because all the

1092
01:03:06.199 --> 01:03:09.159
peripheral businesses come in and they aligned and the suppliers

1093
01:03:09.199 --> 01:03:11.719
and and America is a great place to invest in

1094
01:03:11.800 --> 01:03:14.920
because the idea you have to think about is A,

1095
01:03:15.480 --> 01:03:17.480
we have the best highway system in the world. B

1096
01:03:17.719 --> 01:03:21.000
We're the only country that has the waterways throughout the US,

1097
01:03:21.119 --> 01:03:24.280
I mean, the rivers, access to oceans, the rail systems,

1098
01:03:24.360 --> 01:03:26.960
fantastic air we speak the same language. You know, you

1099
01:03:26.960 --> 01:03:29.000
don't have to have a passport to travel around. And

1100
01:03:29.159 --> 01:03:31.159
you had all that together, and no one has a

1101
01:03:31.199 --> 01:03:32.519
competitive environment.

1102
01:03:32.199 --> 01:03:34.760
Like we do. Yeah, we just have to get some

1103
01:03:34.800 --> 01:03:38.000
of these barriers out of the way. One of one

1104
01:03:38.000 --> 01:03:40.639
of the top for me is, you know, government regulations

1105
01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:43.360
right on dred percent.

1106
01:03:43.480 --> 01:03:47.400
I mean, the regulations are crazy and in so many ways,

1107
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:49.800
and I think I think they start off to to

1108
01:03:49.880 --> 01:03:52.880
be helpful, uh, but then they get bureaucratic and they

1109
01:03:53.280 --> 01:03:55.239
and they take a lot of time and and and

1110
01:03:55.360 --> 01:03:57.599
they're not necessary. So I think just trying to go

1111
01:03:57.679 --> 01:04:00.599
through and eliminate as much of the red tape as

1112
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:03.360
possible is great. I've I've been involved in developing real

1113
01:04:03.440 --> 01:04:05.920
estate in different states, and I've done in California, I've

1114
01:04:05.960 --> 01:04:09.679
done and uh everything from there to South Carolina, Georgia,

1115
01:04:09.719 --> 01:04:13.639
other places. And if you go to a state that

1116
01:04:13.880 --> 01:04:16.239
you know, there's some states, it just it's a lot

1117
01:04:16.280 --> 01:04:19.480
more expensive. Yeah, there's a lot lot more bureaucracy, a

1118
01:04:19.480 --> 01:04:22.760
lot more more costs just because of the way things

1119
01:04:22.760 --> 01:04:23.320
are structured.

1120
01:04:23.760 --> 01:04:27.079
Yeah, but look how much how much cost is involved

1121
01:04:27.480 --> 01:04:29.880
when you have like in Los Angeles, for example, with

1122
01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:32.480
all those homes that were burnt down in the Palisades, right,

1123
01:04:34.000 --> 01:04:37.199
it's expensive for those homes not to be up and operating.

1124
01:04:37.719 --> 01:04:40.320
And the government, I mean, you know here Karen bass

1125
01:04:40.400 --> 01:04:43.320
is right there with Trump saying, oh, yeah, we're gonna

1126
01:04:43.360 --> 01:04:45.239
move these things along. They're gonna be able to get

1127
01:04:45.400 --> 01:04:48.000
building permits within a week. You got people still waiting

1128
01:04:48.039 --> 01:04:50.880
for months, Eric waiting to get their permits.

1129
01:04:51.360 --> 01:04:53.960
Oh yeah, they can't, they can't do anything. And then

1130
01:04:53.960 --> 01:04:56.280
that's a material it's just a I mean that's that's

1131
01:04:56.280 --> 01:04:58.239
been a night a nightmare, and the whole thing was

1132
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:01.800
necessary because of the there was a reduction of the

1133
01:05:01.840 --> 01:05:07.800
available water supply due to trying to protect a fish

1134
01:05:07.840 --> 01:05:11.760
of some sort from damage, and then you end up

1135
01:05:11.760 --> 01:05:16.519
having people die and billions and billions of dollars of loss,

1136
01:05:16.719 --> 01:05:21.599
you know. So it's interesting to see how the policies

1137
01:05:21.760 --> 01:05:24.719
really have very unintended consequences in my view.

1138
01:05:25.079 --> 01:05:27.039
Well, exactly, we got to go to quick break. We've

1139
01:05:27.079 --> 01:05:28.840
got more from Eric right after this, stay with us.

Nutrition for Patriots, welcome back Bill Martinez here with Eric Queer.

1233
01:10:36.319 --> 01:10:38.960
Eric is the author of Who's Eating Your I love

1234
01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:42.760
the title of the book, essential financial advice that will

1235
01:10:42.760 --> 01:10:47.960
transform your life. Just take a moment, Eric, give somebody

1236
01:10:47.960 --> 01:10:51.039
a real quick executive summary of Who's Eating Your Pie.

1237
01:10:51.760 --> 01:10:51.960
Yes.

1238
01:10:52.039 --> 01:10:54.560
So the book was written and to I wrote it

1239
01:10:54.640 --> 01:10:57.399
during COVID and I was noticing the depression that people

1240
01:10:57.479 --> 01:11:00.239
had and feeling separated and down and out. So I

1241
01:11:00.239 --> 01:11:02.720
wrote it as a way. The first chapters called Permission

1242
01:11:02.720 --> 01:11:06.239
to Dream and what most of us are held back

1243
01:11:06.359 --> 01:11:09.079
substantially by our own limiting views, our own limiting beliefs

1244
01:11:09.079 --> 01:11:11.239
about ourselves. Or you were told you want to mount

1245
01:11:11.239 --> 01:11:13.079
to anything? Or are we think we want to have

1246
01:11:13.079 --> 01:11:15.359
the money or the education? And I really talk about

1247
01:11:15.399 --> 01:11:18.399
getting to clarity in five areas of your life and

1248
01:11:18.439 --> 01:11:22.039
the massive difference that makes, and it can attract capital

1249
01:11:22.039 --> 01:11:25.880
of talent people to get to clarity, it solves everything.

1250
01:11:26.199 --> 01:11:28.560
And most people just never take time to plan, and

1251
01:11:28.600 --> 01:11:29.880
they never take time to think.

1252
01:11:30.239 --> 01:11:30.800
And I just.

1253
01:11:31.079 --> 01:11:33.680
Organize the book in a very simple way that it

1254
01:11:33.680 --> 01:11:37.119
can transform your life from a financial perspective, a relational perspective,

1255
01:11:37.159 --> 01:11:40.520
a health perspective, and a family perspective. Because the once

1256
01:11:40.520 --> 01:11:43.359
you clarify what's important to you, then you can take

1257
01:11:43.399 --> 01:11:45.479
steps to attain those goals.

1258
01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:48.720
It's amazing how they interconnect those five areas, right.

1259
01:11:48.920 --> 01:11:52.560
Oh yeah, faith, family, fitness, finance, friends, they all connect

1260
01:11:52.640 --> 01:11:57.239
and there's a my mom would say something like, Eric,

1261
01:11:57.239 --> 01:12:01.119
common sense isn't that common anymore? And some of the

1262
01:12:01.560 --> 01:12:03.800
some of the areas are just when you read it,

1263
01:12:03.800 --> 01:12:06.000
it's not a revelatory thought, but it's like, you know,

1264
01:12:06.039 --> 01:12:08.159
I'm not doing this and it makes sense and I

1265
01:12:08.199 --> 01:12:10.640
should be doing this, and you know, encouraging people to

1266
01:12:10.680 --> 01:12:14.840
make progressive change. Most of us fail because the change

1267
01:12:14.880 --> 01:12:17.079
that we want to make is so great and we

1268
01:12:17.119 --> 01:12:19.720
attempt to make a massive change very quickly, like I'm

1269
01:12:19.720 --> 01:12:21.479
not going to eat tomorrow at all because i want

1270
01:12:21.520 --> 01:12:23.680
to lose weight. And then then you break your fast

1271
01:12:23.760 --> 01:12:26.359
with you know, a bucket of fried chicken and ice cream,

1272
01:12:26.359 --> 01:12:28.600
and you're like, wow, that was bad, right, But if

1273
01:12:28.600 --> 01:12:32.439
you if you make minor changes daily, they compound. And

1274
01:12:32.479 --> 01:12:34.720
I think that's it is give yourself a break. You're

1275
01:12:34.760 --> 01:12:36.960
going to have setbacks, you're not going to hit everything,

1276
01:12:37.000 --> 01:12:40.520
but if you keep applying consistent pressure in a certain

1277
01:12:40.560 --> 01:12:43.520
area or effort, rather, it pays off.

1278
01:12:44.159 --> 01:12:46.560
I always say, give yourself a fair chance to win. Eric,

1279
01:12:46.960 --> 01:12:50.119
that's your point. So otherwise, if you're gobbling down and

1280
01:12:50.239 --> 01:12:52.720
you know, and then chasing all the heavy food that

1281
01:12:52.760 --> 01:12:55.920
you swore off with a pizza the goat, you know,

1282
01:12:56.039 --> 01:12:58.359
and if that's your inclination and you can't overcome, then

1283
01:12:58.359 --> 01:13:00.439
maybe you need to come up with a different goal, right.

1284
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:01.319
Right, right.

1285
01:13:01.359 --> 01:13:03.479
And if I've told people just hey, you know, I'm heavy,

1286
01:13:03.800 --> 01:13:07.039
and maybe that's fine, just stay heavy, but when you

1287
01:13:07.079 --> 01:13:09.760
want to do something else or or you can still

1288
01:13:09.800 --> 01:13:12.760
be healthy, just you know, just what is important. And

1289
01:13:13.079 --> 01:13:15.199
I learned this from Jack Welch. It didn't work for him,

1290
01:13:15.199 --> 01:13:17.439
but he would say, tell me how things are, how

1291
01:13:17.479 --> 01:13:19.319
they really are, not how you wish they were, not

1292
01:13:19.359 --> 01:13:21.520
how you want them to be. And if you think

1293
01:13:21.560 --> 01:13:24.319
about that, just being honest, you know. And I just thought,

1294
01:13:24.319 --> 01:13:25.680
you know, this is what I want to do, This

1295
01:13:25.720 --> 01:13:27.199
is who I want to be, this is the life

1296
01:13:27.199 --> 01:13:30.479
I want to live. And if you have desire to

1297
01:13:30.560 --> 01:13:33.640
do that and it doesn't, you know, then you can

1298
01:13:33.680 --> 01:13:36.600
get there. And well you'll find out is you can't

1299
01:13:36.720 --> 01:13:41.159
have goals that are cross purposes with your values. You

1300
01:13:41.239 --> 01:13:43.399
want to tan them, you know, so they need to

1301
01:13:43.439 --> 01:13:45.119
be aligned, aligned with your values.

1302
01:13:45.560 --> 01:13:48.399
Yeah, you'll self sabotage yourself. I like what you said

1303
01:13:48.439 --> 01:13:51.960
about what Jack had to say. That's a prescription for

1304
01:13:52.000 --> 01:13:57.600
our country, right right, I mean apply apply every it's everything.

1305
01:13:57.640 --> 01:14:00.680
It's it's every meeting I go to, it's everything I do,

1306
01:14:01.039 --> 01:14:03.640
and it's everything is people always want to have either

1307
01:14:03.680 --> 01:14:06.720
a frownie face or a smiley face view the view

1308
01:14:06.720 --> 01:14:09.239
of their life through a lens, and it's a lens

1309
01:14:09.279 --> 01:14:12.800
of their past experiences oftentimes. But it's like, hey, why

1310
01:14:12.800 --> 01:14:15.039
don't we just view it as how the situation is.

1311
01:14:15.079 --> 01:14:17.920
Let's not add drama to the situation. What is the

1312
01:14:17.960 --> 01:14:21.079
situation and then just remove all drama, remove the colment,

1313
01:14:21.119 --> 01:14:23.159
and let us know what steps need to be taken

1314
01:14:23.640 --> 01:14:26.760
to resolve the situations and then take away the drama.

1315
01:14:27.199 --> 01:14:29.159
It's amazing how much more you ca get accomplished.

1316
01:14:29.680 --> 01:14:32.000
Yeah, and you'd be surprised how quick you could get

1317
01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:36.279
to the solution, right, yeah, of course, right, yeah, exactly

1318
01:14:37.079 --> 01:14:39.560
minimize the drama, you know, And I understand, look at

1319
01:14:39.640 --> 01:14:42.239
there's uh, you know, drama brings a little color, it

1320
01:14:42.279 --> 01:14:44.119
adds to the passion and that sort of thing. But

1321
01:14:44.119 --> 01:14:46.239
at the end of the day, you got to ask yourself, Hey,

1322
01:14:46.239 --> 01:14:48.439
if we move the ball down the field, or is

1323
01:14:48.439 --> 01:14:50.159
it still in the same place or worse yet, did

1324
01:14:50.159 --> 01:14:51.479
we lose ground in the process?

1325
01:14:51.600 --> 01:14:56.880
Right, that's right. Well we're talking to these things and

1326
01:14:57.039 --> 01:14:57.680
that's the way to go.

1327
01:14:57.880 --> 01:15:00.800
Yeah, we're talking with Eric, where said the author of

1328
01:15:00.840 --> 01:15:03.279
Who's Eating Your Pipe? Get get your hands on this book.

1329
01:15:03.359 --> 01:15:07.000
I mean there's some great practical, common sense things that

1330
01:15:07.079 --> 01:15:09.680
you'll go. You know what my grandma told me that. Well, yeah,

1331
01:15:09.680 --> 01:15:12.680
of course you did, because it's these are you know,

1332
01:15:12.760 --> 01:15:15.159
tales as old as time as they would say. Uh,

1333
01:15:15.800 --> 01:15:19.640
you know, Eric, you say, if America has an affordability crisis,

1334
01:15:20.319 --> 01:15:22.840
it's interesting that it tends to land in the places

1335
01:15:22.880 --> 01:15:26.039
that democrats are governing. Right, that's true.

1336
01:15:26.119 --> 01:15:26.680
It's crazy.

1337
01:15:27.039 --> 01:15:30.439
And you know it's policies that they have that I

1338
01:15:30.479 --> 01:15:36.279
think originated with good intentions. But any time you try

1339
01:15:36.319 --> 01:15:39.319
to disrupt the natural flow of things or free markets

1340
01:15:39.399 --> 01:15:42.359
or supply, the natural laws of supply and demand, and

1341
01:15:42.399 --> 01:15:46.119
you try to put external forces on that, it just

1342
01:15:46.199 --> 01:15:51.079
doesn't work. It just doesn't work. And it's it's it

1343
01:15:51.239 --> 01:15:54.079
causes things to go askewe And if you think of anything,

1344
01:15:54.439 --> 01:15:56.800
if you're saying I'm on a ration bread in another country.

1345
01:15:56.800 --> 01:15:59.720
Then what happens and then black markets start for bread?

1346
01:15:59.760 --> 01:15:59.920
You know.

1347
01:16:00.079 --> 01:16:03.560
So I'm gonna do this through everything that you try

1348
01:16:03.560 --> 01:16:08.000
to regulate at some point if if it's overdone, it

1349
01:16:08.239 --> 01:16:10.840
has adverse consequences. And with the real estate, if it's

1350
01:16:10.840 --> 01:16:14.680
rent control, then supply shrinks and the quality of the

1351
01:16:14.680 --> 01:16:17.520
asset goes down. If it's if it's hey, we're going

1352
01:16:17.520 --> 01:16:19.600
to tax the rich they don't they won't miss it

1353
01:16:19.640 --> 01:16:21.399
and give it to people who have or not, you know,

1354
01:16:21.439 --> 01:16:25.319
for other reasons. That has consequences if you so, you know,

1355
01:16:25.399 --> 01:16:28.560
I was talking to a person who is of wealth

1356
01:16:29.079 --> 01:16:31.479
and they had an advisor in the room and overheard

1357
01:16:31.520 --> 01:16:34.319
the advisor say something, and they said, giving somebody something

1358
01:16:34.359 --> 01:16:38.640
that they didn't work for, uh is is not a

1359
01:16:38.680 --> 01:16:41.039
good start. So if you give somebody large amount of

1360
01:16:41.079 --> 01:16:43.520
money and they didn't earn it, they said, it's it's

1361
01:16:43.560 --> 01:16:46.359
bad for them. It cripples people. And I've never heard

1362
01:16:46.399 --> 01:16:48.640
of positioned that way until this advisor said that. I

1363
01:16:48.640 --> 01:16:50.880
was like, well, that's really true about a lot of things.

1364
01:16:51.359 --> 01:16:53.920
So if you give things to people that there's no

1365
01:16:54.079 --> 01:16:57.920
appreciation or no merit, behind it. It's it doesn't do

1366
01:16:57.960 --> 01:16:58.479
a lot of good.

1367
01:16:58.880 --> 01:17:01.840
Well, there's lessons to price in the process because if

1368
01:17:01.880 --> 01:17:04.399
they're earning, I mean, you know, if you need that

1369
01:17:04.479 --> 01:17:08.079
first one hundred thousand dollars you know, to start the business,

1370
01:17:08.439 --> 01:17:11.800
there's a lot that you learn practically, as you know

1371
01:17:11.920 --> 01:17:15.640
in business, that you learn in that hundred thousand dollars realm.

1372
01:17:16.079 --> 01:17:19.640
But if I give that to you, I've really cut

1373
01:17:19.680 --> 01:17:22.199
your you know, cut you off at the knees, because

1374
01:17:22.239 --> 01:17:25.920
now you've lost that appreciation and lessons that you should

1375
01:17:25.920 --> 01:17:30.000
have learned in that one hundred thousand dollars realm, right correct?

1376
01:17:30.000 --> 01:17:30.720
One hundred percent?

1377
01:17:30.960 --> 01:17:34.000
Yeah, So yeah, I think this is what happens. And

1378
01:17:34.000 --> 01:17:35.720
I think that you know, like sometimes you say, you

1379
01:17:35.760 --> 01:17:38.560
know with good intentions, and I question that. I think

1380
01:17:38.560 --> 01:17:40.800
you're you're generous, if I can be critical of that

1381
01:17:40.840 --> 01:17:44.039
statement for just moments, I think, I think you're trying

1382
01:17:44.039 --> 01:17:46.399
to be too nice. Because the thing is is that

1383
01:17:46.640 --> 01:17:50.960
so often with political motivation, I look at okay, are

1384
01:17:51.000 --> 01:17:53.960
you really trying to help somebody or are you trying

1385
01:17:54.000 --> 01:17:57.399
to get a vote? And what I'm finding, more often

1386
01:17:57.560 --> 01:18:00.520
than not, because you know what what I see, what

1387
01:18:00.600 --> 01:18:03.840
happens in Congress is these people go in and I'm

1388
01:18:03.840 --> 01:18:08.319
talking about freshmen and whether senators or congressmen and congress women.

1389
01:18:08.800 --> 01:18:12.439
Sure go in and their first orientation meeting, they say, hey,

1390
01:18:12.760 --> 01:18:15.560
why are you here? Oh, I'm here to support my constituents.

1391
01:18:15.560 --> 01:18:17.960
This is what they told me. And and the answer

1392
01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:21.399
is at wrong answer. What do you mean the wrong answer? No,

1393
01:18:21.920 --> 01:18:24.359
you're here to get re elected. And as soon as

1394
01:18:24.359 --> 01:18:26.760
we're done with this meeting, we've got a bank of

1395
01:18:26.800 --> 01:18:28.439
phones over here, and you're going to get on a

1396
01:18:28.479 --> 01:18:31.920
phone and you're going to start fundraising. So all those

1397
01:18:32.479 --> 01:18:36.239
ideals that you brought with you become subordinate to the

1398
01:18:36.359 --> 01:18:39.680
number one issue, and that is survival. As a congressman

1399
01:18:39.760 --> 01:18:42.039
or as a senator, you've got to get re elected.

1400
01:18:42.359 --> 01:18:45.720
So when that becomes as you know in business, when

1401
01:18:45.760 --> 01:18:48.600
that becomes the focal point, well then all those good

1402
01:18:48.600 --> 01:18:52.359
intentions get kind of nullified, They get they get homogenized

1403
01:18:52.760 --> 01:18:55.640
and and and lessened in significance.

1404
01:18:56.159 --> 01:18:59.199
Yeah, that's one hundred percent right, And it's it's it's

1405
01:18:59.279 --> 01:19:01.520
so it's so easy to to think about, but it

1406
01:19:01.600 --> 01:19:04.880
is true. And uh, if you look and I was

1407
01:19:05.000 --> 01:19:08.880
I was trying to be generous, Uh, but so many

1408
01:19:08.920 --> 01:19:13.119
of decisions are being made because of the pursuit of power,

1409
01:19:13.199 --> 01:19:14.039
the pursuit.

1410
01:19:13.720 --> 01:19:15.439
Of inflowing exact position.

1411
01:19:15.960 --> 01:19:17.479
And and that's not a real good place to.

1412
01:19:17.399 --> 01:19:20.359
Be, No, it really isn't. It's not good for you.

1413
01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:22.720
It's not wholesome. I mean, you look at all these

1414
01:19:22.720 --> 01:19:25.840
people with you know, all kinds of diseases and ailments.

1415
01:19:26.119 --> 01:19:29.680
It's because they're pursuing something that's unattainable. Because it's like

1416
01:19:29.760 --> 01:19:32.760
you know, pat Riley, I love his book Showtime, you know,

1417
01:19:32.760 --> 01:19:34.880
when he was the Lakers coach, he called it the

1418
01:19:35.359 --> 01:19:38.199
disease of more Eric. You know, you get on that

1419
01:19:38.479 --> 01:19:41.960
hamster wheel of life where it's just it's just never enough,

1420
01:19:42.479 --> 01:19:43.359
and that's what happens.

1421
01:19:44.000 --> 01:19:46.640
Yeah, I've read I heard somebody say something, I have

1422
01:19:46.720 --> 01:19:49.439
something you'll never have to to It was on a

1423
01:19:49.479 --> 01:19:51.800
TV show, but it was kind of funny and there

1424
01:19:51.840 --> 01:19:53.520
was talking to a character, I have something you'll never have,

1425
01:19:53.560 --> 01:19:55.920
when he goes, what's that enough? And I thought that

1426
01:19:56.000 --> 01:19:57.800
was that was interesting to see. And I think that,

1427
01:19:58.079 --> 01:20:00.000
you know, with most of the things in life. People

1428
01:20:00.039 --> 01:20:02.760
a lot of people who are fight depression, but the

1429
01:20:02.800 --> 01:20:05.159
most things in life, if you start with a little

1430
01:20:05.159 --> 01:20:08.319
bit of gratitude. It's hard to be depressed with gratitude

1431
01:20:08.319 --> 01:20:12.960
that they can't coexist, and to the extent you can

1432
01:20:12.960 --> 01:20:15.119
find something to be grateful for. You heard the story

1433
01:20:15.159 --> 01:20:18.840
about the person who you know looks is sad because

1434
01:20:18.840 --> 01:20:22.039
they're stuck inside the look out the window and somebody's in.

1435
01:20:21.960 --> 01:20:22.720
A car accident.

1436
01:20:22.880 --> 01:20:25.159
Wow, it's sad for them. Then that person goes to

1437
01:20:25.239 --> 01:20:27.359
the hospital, but they're not that hurt, but a little hurt.

1438
01:20:27.520 --> 01:20:29.840
They share real with somebody's really hurt, right, And well,

1439
01:20:29.840 --> 01:20:32.039
I'm glad I'm not that guy. And that guy you

1440
01:20:32.079 --> 01:20:34.960
know gets dismissed on his way home, he goes by

1441
01:20:35.439 --> 01:20:37.560
a funeral procession. Well, I'm glad I'm not that guy.

1442
01:20:37.600 --> 01:20:37.840
You know.

1443
01:20:37.920 --> 01:20:41.000
So exactly, it's easy to find things to be grateful

1444
01:20:41.000 --> 01:20:43.279
for if you just if you just, you know, spend

1445
01:20:43.319 --> 01:20:44.560
a little time looking around.

1446
01:20:45.319 --> 01:20:47.760

got the American flag behind you, and this is wonderful.

1522
01:25:08.000 --> 01:25:10.039
You did all that because you didn't want Ice to

1523
01:25:10.079 --> 01:25:11.359
come in and drag you off.

1524
01:25:11.880 --> 01:25:17.039
They went, well, you know, oh leave it to you,

1525
01:25:17.159 --> 01:25:17.760
doctor Ted.

1526
01:25:18.399 --> 01:25:21.760
Can you believe that the press secretary that her, you know,

1527
01:25:22.039 --> 01:25:23.000
remember her fast?

1528
01:25:23.279 --> 01:25:26.560
Okay, I know a little bit. Yeah, yeah, Well, hey,

1529
01:25:27.239 --> 01:25:30.039
why are we surprised? I mean, this is what happens,

1530
01:25:30.079 --> 01:25:32.279
you know, and this has been going on for years

1531
01:25:32.319 --> 01:25:35.359
and but here you decide, okay, now's the time to

1532
01:25:35.600 --> 01:25:38.399
clean things up. And you know where do you set

1533
01:25:38.399 --> 01:25:39.640
the demarcation? Right?

1534
01:25:40.720 --> 01:25:42.960
Well, you know, there is a good side and the

1535
01:25:43.000 --> 01:25:43.960
bad side. To everything.

1536
01:25:44.079 --> 01:25:46.479
I worked at the US Attorney's Office Southern District of

1537
01:25:46.520 --> 01:25:49.920
New York as an assistant. My son was at the

1538
01:25:50.000 --> 01:25:54.239
US Attorney's Office in New Orleans. I had three fba

1539
01:25:54.600 --> 01:25:59.399
IE agents that worked with me. Sometimes they take pleasure

1540
01:25:59.439 --> 01:26:02.520
in other people. Was pain, you know, shodden fruiter. Yes,

1541
01:26:02.840 --> 01:26:06.880
So one lunch they talked about chasing this poor fat

1542
01:26:06.920 --> 01:26:09.720
old well because it was securities fraud that I always

1543
01:26:09.720 --> 01:26:14.399
had up a couple flights of stairs and his you know,

1544
01:26:14.479 --> 01:26:18.000
in the building where his office was, the skyscraper, and

1545
01:26:18.159 --> 01:26:19.560
him collapsing with a heart.

1546
01:26:19.680 --> 01:26:25.600
You know, they enjoy doing this, so you always have

1547
01:26:25.680 --> 01:26:27.000
to have checks and balances.

1548
01:26:28.079 --> 01:26:33.039
I just let people loose, and sometimes their decision making

1549
01:26:33.119 --> 01:26:37.560
process is not based on you know, the accurate law.

1550
01:26:37.800 --> 01:26:40.800
It's based on the fun they have and arresting and

1551
01:26:40.840 --> 01:26:46.119
that goes for all. Yeah, all they are everybody. Because

1552
01:26:46.119 --> 01:26:48.119
my son's a lieutenant Curl in the Marine Corps. So

1553
01:26:48.199 --> 01:26:52.760
you my son said, when you know, when a couple

1554
01:26:52.800 --> 01:26:56.039
of these big problems arose with the police, he said,

1555
01:26:56.399 --> 01:27:00.199
in the Marine Corps, we spend ninety five percent of

1556
01:27:00.199 --> 01:27:05.479
time learning not to shoot, and some of these divisions

1557
01:27:06.039 --> 01:27:09.560
they don't learn that they spend ninety five percent of

1558
01:27:09.560 --> 01:27:12.239
the time learning to shoot and you you've got to

1559
01:27:12.239 --> 01:27:13.279
have checks and balances.

1560
01:27:13.319 --> 01:27:15.399
I'm sorry, Bill, I went off on a.

1561
01:27:15.079 --> 01:27:17.840
Well no, well you touch on something. I mean, this

1562
01:27:17.920 --> 01:27:21.319
is uh, you know, we're heading into this incredible season.

1563
01:27:21.359 --> 01:27:24.000
This is my favorite time of year, starting with Thanksgiving

1564
01:27:24.239 --> 01:27:26.920
because it sets us up. We go through Advent and

1565
01:27:26.960 --> 01:27:29.800
then we get the greatest gift ever given to humanity,

1566
01:27:30.359 --> 01:27:34.399
Jesus Christ, the Baby Jesus in Bethlehem.

1567
01:27:35.119 --> 01:27:35.560
Amen.

1568
01:27:35.960 --> 01:27:39.960
And this God really and this should really condition our

1569
01:27:40.039 --> 01:27:43.239
mindset and what you're bringing up. Yes, look at this

1570
01:27:43.319 --> 01:27:45.680
is the challenge with humanoids on the face of the

1571
01:27:45.720 --> 01:27:50.039
earth is we're falling and sometimes you know, we can

1572
01:27:50.079 --> 01:27:52.039
get carried away because we got a gun and a

1573
01:27:52.079 --> 01:27:54.880
badge and we use it inappropriately.

1574
01:27:55.680 --> 01:27:58.800
Well, see, you thought that I was talking about the government.

1575
01:27:58.880 --> 01:28:04.399
Actually I'm talking about Utopia because there are two detectives there, okay,

1576
01:28:04.600 --> 01:28:06.800
and they're trying to show that snakes are not bad.

1577
01:28:06.840 --> 01:28:10.880
But the rest of the department and some big, heavy

1578
01:28:11.000 --> 01:28:13.479
duty people in the background are trying to show that

1579
01:28:13.520 --> 01:28:17.520
snakes are evil. And my granddaughter who saw it, said

1580
01:28:17.760 --> 01:28:22.119
the snake was her favorite character. So we're talking about

1581
01:28:22.239 --> 01:28:25.319
z Utopia. For anybody who's listening in, we're not that's right.

1582
01:28:25.399 --> 01:28:27.760
Yeah, but you know, you know how it is, art

1583
01:28:27.800 --> 01:28:32.399
imitates life and such as as it goes. So z Utopia.

1584
01:28:32.520 --> 01:28:35.119
So did you like it?

1585
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:36.359
We liked it a lot.

1586
01:28:36.960 --> 01:28:40.880
And two of my eighteen grandchildren went to see it

1587
01:28:41.359 --> 01:28:46.159
and they loved it. And this, okay, nobody likes snakes,

1588
01:28:46.239 --> 01:28:48.960
but you.

1589
01:28:47.760 --> 01:28:50.079
You know, you may like him, but they loved the

1590
01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:50.720
snake in it.

1591
01:28:50.840 --> 01:28:54.840
He's a funny, good character and he's got to be redeemed.

1592
01:28:55.279 --> 01:28:58.880
And the detectives are nice, the story is nice, and

1593
01:28:58.920 --> 01:29:01.720
it's positive and up lifting. And it's four stars and

1594
01:29:01.800 --> 01:29:06.039
plus one. So if you want to see something this Thanksgiving,

1595
01:29:06.640 --> 01:29:09.239
Zutopia is the one to go see. The other one

1596
01:29:09.279 --> 01:29:12.119
is Wicked that I was going to say two words about.

1597
01:29:11.840 --> 01:29:13.279
But Wicked.

1598
01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:17.880
Wicked is not It's not bad, it's more We thought

1599
01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:22.359
it was more exciting than the first movie. But there's

1600
01:29:22.399 --> 01:29:27.279
still some you know, undertones that are very sort of

1601
01:29:27.399 --> 01:29:32.159
new age. There's also uh an LGBTQ. I hope that

1602
01:29:32.199 --> 01:29:35.560
didn't come to any kids. That because the author of

1603
01:29:35.640 --> 01:29:39.119
the of the play, the author of the book, it

1604
01:29:39.319 --> 01:29:43.720
was LGBTQ man. Of course, you've got these two women,

1605
01:29:43.880 --> 01:29:46.439
one of whom in real life is LGBTQ.

1606
01:29:47.359 --> 01:29:49.680
So you've got all these hidden factors.

1607
01:29:50.079 --> 01:29:54.880
So we consider wicked, and I'm you know, everybody can

1608
01:29:54.920 --> 01:29:58.079
disagree with us. I don't mind, but we consider I've

1609
01:29:58.079 --> 01:30:01.279
taught cognitive development that I've taught kids for years. I

1610
01:30:01.359 --> 01:30:05.039
got four beautiful kids, eighteen wonderful grandkids.

1611
01:30:05.359 --> 01:30:07.720
As my wife used to say, they're practically perfect.

1612
01:30:08.199 --> 01:30:10.840
And I hear every day from somebody whose children have

1613
01:30:10.880 --> 01:30:11.920
gone off the deep end.

1614
01:30:11.960 --> 01:30:14.840
I heard today from somebody else, So you have to

1615
01:30:14.840 --> 01:30:16.479
be careful about what they watch.

1616
01:30:16.600 --> 01:30:19.079
I know it looks fun and it looks like a

1617
01:30:19.119 --> 01:30:22.279
Thanksgiving movie, but we gave it a minus two. If

1618
01:30:22.279 --> 01:30:25.319
anybody doesn't know the story, read our review at movieguide

1619
01:30:25.359 --> 01:30:25.800
dot org.

1620
01:30:26.319 --> 01:30:29.399
Well, all this stuff ted is conditioning the mind, and

1621
01:30:29.479 --> 01:30:31.960
particularly with young kids. And you and I've had this discussion,

1622
01:30:31.960 --> 01:30:33.720
and I wanted to, you know, to take a little

1623
01:30:33.720 --> 01:30:38.239
bit of time because even the social media platforms all

1624
01:30:38.279 --> 01:30:41.920
with AI coming into play things that are you know,

1625
01:30:41.960 --> 01:30:45.000
we talked about TikTok and the influences having on young kids,

1626
01:30:45.359 --> 01:30:48.560
and now the researchers are telling us the very thing

1627
01:30:48.600 --> 01:30:51.039
we knew, things you've been studying about, that you've known

1628
01:30:51.119 --> 01:30:51.800
for decades.

1629
01:30:52.760 --> 01:30:56.079
Yes, and that's of course two of the articles that

1630
01:30:56.119 --> 01:30:58.520
were going to talk about. I mean, it's just it's

1631
01:30:58.600 --> 01:31:02.399
incredible that AI is causing so much trouble among kids.

1632
01:31:02.840 --> 01:31:07.359
I've taught cognitivelopment theory, media literacy. Kids are very vulnerable.

1633
01:31:07.399 --> 01:31:12.199
But what confuses parents as kids will never tell you

1634
01:31:12.279 --> 01:31:17.600
that they're vulnerable. They won't tell you that they're addicted

1635
01:31:17.640 --> 01:31:19.479
to a game, or addicted to.

1636
01:31:20.960 --> 01:31:24.399
Alcohol, or addicted to drugs, or addicted to But we

1637
01:31:24.479 --> 01:31:26.199
know that a certain number of kids.

1638
01:31:25.960 --> 01:31:29.000
Are addicted to violence, about ten percent the rest of

1639
01:31:29.039 --> 01:31:29.479
them are not.

1640
01:31:30.079 --> 01:31:31.560
We know that a certain number.

1641
01:31:31.359 --> 01:31:35.439
Of kids are addicted to sex, and a certain number

1642
01:31:35.439 --> 01:31:37.279
of kids are addicted to shopping.

1643
01:31:37.760 --> 01:31:42.000
So at everything that you look at, our job.

1644
01:31:41.840 --> 01:31:44.640
As parents is to raise them so that they grow

1645
01:31:44.680 --> 01:31:46.520
out of that, so that they mature.

1646
01:31:46.960 --> 01:31:48.680
I tell the story I think I told it to

1647
01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:49.800
you is that.

1648
01:31:49.800 --> 01:31:52.840
I was driving my four kids up through the West

1649
01:31:53.239 --> 01:31:56.680
through Grand Canyon, up to Banfan, Jasper Lake, Louise and

1650
01:31:56.720 --> 01:32:00.840
down again, and I hear one of them going and

1651
01:32:01.039 --> 01:32:03.399
I said, did somebody hit you know that child? I

1652
01:32:03.439 --> 01:32:06.319
don't want to mention his name because I seen him

1653
01:32:06.319 --> 01:32:10.760
every day. And the other child who hit him as

1654
01:32:10.880 --> 01:32:12.680
a lieutenant colonel in the Marine Corps.

1655
01:32:13.159 --> 01:32:15.920
But then he was only like nine years old and

1656
01:32:15.960 --> 01:32:17.199
the other child said no.

1657
01:32:17.760 --> 01:32:20.079
So I knew one of them had a propensity for

1658
01:32:20.279 --> 01:32:23.760
covering up and another one had a propensity. My job

1659
01:32:23.880 --> 01:32:26.880
as a parent is to get them over those propensities

1660
01:32:27.319 --> 01:32:29.880
exactly to help them not to hit, to help them

1661
01:32:29.880 --> 01:32:33.359
not And that goes back to our original conversation. But

1662
01:32:34.359 --> 01:32:37.800
AI is terrible, and I know you do this too,

1663
01:32:37.880 --> 01:32:42.800
But every day I get somebody sending me some AI

1664
01:32:43.079 --> 01:32:47.439
stuff that's just false. I mean it's false information about

1665
01:32:47.800 --> 01:32:52.680
you know, John Wayne. False because I knew all these people.

1666
01:32:52.760 --> 01:32:56.840
My uncle used to play cards with John Wayne every night.

1667
01:32:57.319 --> 01:33:00.000
I know these people, and it's not what's in there,

1668
01:33:00.399 --> 01:33:04.199
Like these little stories come out, you know that are

1669
01:33:04.239 --> 01:33:08.760
totally goofy and they don't recognize. For instance, let's pick

1670
01:33:08.800 --> 01:33:12.199
on an easy one. One of my favorite stars is

1671
01:33:12.720 --> 01:33:16.399
Lucio Ball. But she did have a Communist cell. She

1672
01:33:16.640 --> 01:33:20.079
was very pro communist. Her grandfather was very pro communist.

1673
01:33:20.600 --> 01:33:23.479
So people sort of paint these pictures that aren't real

1674
01:33:23.880 --> 01:33:27.600
in AI and one of the articles AI slop and

1675
01:33:27.640 --> 01:33:30.119
it's about these little things where kids are playing with

1676
01:33:30.560 --> 01:33:32.039
cats or dragons or.

1677
01:33:32.039 --> 01:33:33.560
Tigers or whatever else.

1678
01:33:34.000 --> 01:33:38.439
Oh my, it's not real, okay, right, but people take

1679
01:33:38.479 --> 01:33:40.840
it for being real and then they send it to

1680
01:33:40.840 --> 01:33:41.840
me as if it's real.

1681
01:33:41.920 --> 01:33:44.039
So don't do that. I don't want to see them.

1682
01:33:44.439 --> 01:33:46.640
No, exactly, Well, we have better things to do with

1683
01:33:46.680 --> 01:33:50.640
our time. But yes, all this is in play right now.

1684
01:33:50.720 --> 01:33:54.279
And because of that, parents especially have to be discerning

1685
01:33:54.319 --> 01:33:56.479
because we're the guardrails. Are we not ted?

1686
01:33:57.119 --> 01:33:58.800
Absolutely, we have to be mature.

1687
01:33:58.840 --> 01:34:03.039
In a new stuff came out actually saying something I've

1688
01:34:03.039 --> 01:34:06.239
been saying for years is that a child's mind doesn't

1689
01:34:06.279 --> 01:34:09.560
become an adult mind until the age of thirty or

1690
01:34:09.560 --> 01:34:10.079
thirty two.

1691
01:34:10.159 --> 01:34:11.560
This was the new study in the.

1692
01:34:11.520 --> 01:34:14.399
Journal of American Medical I mean, I knew this when

1693
01:34:14.399 --> 01:34:17.399
we brought sixty professors together in the seventies. I don't

1694
01:34:17.439 --> 01:34:20.159
know why it took them so long to figure this out, right,

1695
01:34:20.279 --> 01:34:23.039
because we understand that that you go through a period.

1696
01:34:23.720 --> 01:34:25.720
We can go into this in detail if you want,

1697
01:34:25.760 --> 01:34:28.560
but it's just be careful.

1698
01:34:28.800 --> 01:34:32.159
Right exactly. I guess that's the cautionary tale, is that

1699
01:34:32.319 --> 01:34:34.920
we see what's coming at us. It is coming at

1700
01:34:34.960 --> 01:34:39.479
mock five speeds, and so parents especially because as I said,

1701
01:34:39.479 --> 01:34:42.239
we're the first line of defense in terms of protecting

1702
01:34:42.239 --> 01:34:44.640
our kids. So you know we need to protect our

1703
01:34:44.720 --> 01:34:48.600
kids in our household. Ted Bears always, we so appreciate you.

1704
01:34:48.600 --> 01:34:51.159
You're wonderful. Love you appreciate you God.

Bill Martinez here with the one and only an infamous

1782
01:39:01.760 --> 01:39:04.239
my good friend Adam Holtz from plugged in dot com. Hey,

1783
01:39:04.279 --> 01:39:05.439
mister Adam, how are we doing.

1784
01:39:05.600 --> 01:39:08.439
You know, infamy has always been what I've aimed for.

1785
01:39:08.680 --> 01:39:11.840
You know, that's infamy. That's my legacy. I'm glad to

1786
01:39:11.880 --> 01:39:12.359
be with you.

1787
01:39:12.520 --> 01:39:14.039
No doubt about it. I mean, that's what the kids

1788
01:39:14.079 --> 01:39:15.600
say all the time. My dad's famous.

1789
01:39:15.960 --> 01:39:19.039
That's right, they do. They say that all the time.

1790
01:39:20.640 --> 01:39:23.199
I'm walking down for breakfast to go. Here's our father.

1791
01:39:23.560 --> 01:39:24.600
He is famous.

1792
01:39:24.920 --> 01:39:29.279
It's our famous father. Yes, exactly, exactly, exactly.

1793
01:39:29.960 --> 01:39:32.880
Well, you survived Thanksgiving? Okay, I take it.

1794
01:39:33.479 --> 01:39:33.920
I did.

1795
01:39:34.039 --> 01:39:37.279
We logged thirty three hundred miles in our van, so

1796
01:39:37.680 --> 01:39:41.439
it was, oh wow, there's a long week.

1797
01:39:41.560 --> 01:39:42.840
Actually yeah, yeah.

1798
01:39:42.640 --> 01:39:44.439
Well, thank you, thank God for cheaper thank God for

1799
01:39:44.520 --> 01:39:47.079
cheaper gas until you I'm sure you gassed up me

1800
01:39:47.079 --> 01:39:48.880
before you got into California.

1801
01:39:48.399 --> 01:39:50.199
Though, I you know, I wish I could have just

1802
01:39:50.239 --> 01:39:52.399
pulled a tanker behind me on the way back.

1803
01:39:52.520 --> 01:39:54.880
I paid a buck ninety nine.

1804
01:39:54.720 --> 01:39:57.359
For gas in Colorado, and you know, five point fifty

1805
01:39:57.439 --> 01:39:59.680
in California, so go go.

1806
01:39:59.760 --> 01:40:01.760
So it totally works, right.

1807
01:40:01.720 --> 01:40:05.119
Yeah, exactly. Well, and they talk about affordability, right, but

1808
01:40:05.159 --> 01:40:07.159
that's a that's a whole nother deal. There's no need, it.

1809
01:40:07.319 --> 01:40:07.840
Is it is.

1810
01:40:07.880 --> 01:40:10.000
I mean, we don't, we don't need to go too

1811
01:40:10.039 --> 01:40:14.359
far down that rabbit trail. But you know, I'm with

1812
01:40:14.479 --> 01:40:14.960
the government.

1813
01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:15.680
I'm here to help.

1814
01:40:15.720 --> 01:40:19.199
We know what Reagan had to say about that nine

1815
01:40:19.239 --> 01:40:22.399
scariest words in the English language or something to that effect.

1816
01:40:22.520 --> 01:40:25.119
Yeah, really very very close, no doubt about it. Well,

1817
01:40:25.600 --> 01:40:30.000
good news is we're reminded of the good news the

1818
01:40:30.039 --> 01:40:34.760
first week of Vanvent hope. Thank God for God, right.

1819
01:40:35.279 --> 01:40:36.359
Thank God for God.

1820
01:40:36.800 --> 01:40:42.680
And I mean honestly, having having a hope that is

1821
01:40:42.760 --> 01:40:46.199
anchored so much more deeply than anything that we're going

1822
01:40:46.279 --> 01:40:50.359
to get in the headlines is it's so key. And

1823
01:40:49.880 --> 01:40:53.239
I and obviously you know Bill, I work for plugged in.

1824
01:40:53.359 --> 01:40:57.279
We review movies for you know, for people to know

1825
01:40:57.319 --> 01:41:01.239
what's going on there. And we've got a great new

1826
01:41:01.319 --> 01:41:05.560
video up on our YouTube channel interviewing Dallas Jenkins, and

1827
01:41:05.640 --> 01:41:09.560
he talks about why he felt compelled to make the

1828
01:41:09.640 --> 01:41:12.520
movie the best Christmas Pageant ever. Obviously Dallas has been

1829
01:41:12.560 --> 01:41:16.199
more associated with the Chosen. So if you're looking for

1830
01:41:16.359 --> 01:41:22.159
just a really nice story about Christmas, I would commend

1831
01:41:22.199 --> 01:41:24.319
that video to your attention because I think it will

1832
01:41:24.399 --> 01:41:25.720
encourage you.

1833
01:41:25.720 --> 01:41:27.960
No, I've heard him talk about this before, and you

1834
01:41:27.960 --> 01:41:31.479
can tell the passion, for you know, his whole motivation

1835
01:41:31.680 --> 01:41:34.520
is so deep and it's so much it is, and

1836
01:41:34.279 --> 01:41:37.800
it's also when you come away in hearing him talk,

1837
01:41:38.560 --> 01:41:42.279
you realize why the choseness is really so special, and

1838
01:41:42.840 --> 01:41:46.479
I think also why God picked him to do the

1839
01:41:46.560 --> 01:41:47.520
chosen right.

1840
01:41:47.439 --> 01:41:53.960
No, exactly, and he has brought not only a technical

1841
01:41:54.000 --> 01:42:02.279
skill set, but just imaginative depth and theological goal really

1842
01:42:02.319 --> 01:42:07.600
faithfulness to the table here in a story that continues

1843
01:42:07.680 --> 01:42:11.439
to I think, act as a catalyst for so many

1844
01:42:11.479 --> 01:42:13.920
people in terms of, you know, provoking us to think

1845
01:42:13.960 --> 01:42:15.760
about our faith in a new way.

1846
01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:18.880
And I know, for me, even though we know that Jesus.

1847
01:42:18.600 --> 01:42:22.159
Was fully God and fully man, I think I tend

1848
01:42:22.239 --> 01:42:25.199
to focus more naturally on the fully God part. And

1849
01:42:25.199 --> 01:42:27.640
what I think that the chosen does is it gives

1850
01:42:27.720 --> 01:42:32.439
us a portrait and artists take, if you will, on

1851
01:42:32.479 --> 01:42:35.119
the fact that Jesus was fully man too, and there

1852
01:42:35.119 --> 01:42:39.079
are moments of his humanity that that.

1853
01:42:38.720 --> 01:42:39.439
Really get me.

1854
01:42:39.720 --> 01:42:42.479
So yeah, absolutely, Well, I don't.

1855
01:42:42.279 --> 01:42:44.319
Know about you, but you know I've been doing the

1856
01:42:44.720 --> 01:42:50.680
hollow app okay, And Jonathan Rumy is one that I

1857
01:42:50.720 --> 01:42:54.279
do consistently, and I find it quite interesting that when

1858
01:42:54.319 --> 01:42:59.840
he reads the gospel. He uses his Jesus voice. And

1859
01:43:00.119 --> 01:43:01.640
the only is a lot of people didn't realize that

1860
01:43:01.720 --> 01:43:07.079
Jonathan Rumy before he became known as the Jesus character Jus, Yes,

1861
01:43:07.520 --> 01:43:10.920
he did voices. You know, he's he's quite the character.

1862
01:43:11.319 --> 01:43:13.600
And so I had to laugh, you know, because I

1863
01:43:13.600 --> 01:43:16.239
was sitting there and going, oh my gosh, he's doing Jesus,

1864
01:43:16.520 --> 01:43:19.000
you know, and he's really yeah, so it's really cool.

1865
01:43:19.039 --> 01:43:21.640
But yeah, that the Hollow app of course, has been

1866
01:43:21.760 --> 01:43:24.840
very successful and what a blessing, and especially this time,

1867
01:43:24.880 --> 01:43:28.359
the season at that time reminds you again and look

1868
01:43:28.399 --> 01:43:31.159
what's going on Bible sales or through the roof people

1869
01:43:31.199 --> 01:43:33.960
are coing to church. There's a lot of great signs here.

1870
01:43:34.000 --> 01:43:36.840
But the thing is is that you know, my prayer

1871
01:43:36.960 --> 01:43:40.000
is is that your motivation to come to church. Okay,

1872
01:43:40.359 --> 01:43:42.399
good decision. But the next thing is you got to

1873
01:43:42.439 --> 01:43:44.520
follow through on it. That it is a process. It's

1874
01:43:44.560 --> 01:43:46.720
not just hey, one Sunday and it's all good and

1875
01:43:46.760 --> 01:43:48.920
you think that's going to carry you through the season.

1876
01:43:49.279 --> 01:43:53.479
I mean, this is a lifestyle choice. And for those

1877
01:43:53.520 --> 01:43:55.720
of us that have you know, we've all done this.

1878
01:43:55.800 --> 01:43:59.479
I mean, I'm not trying to indict anybody. And you know, look,

1879
01:43:59.560 --> 01:44:02.359
we've all by experience, is what we're saying, is that

1880
01:44:02.399 --> 01:44:05.640
we've gone through that journey of hit and miss, and

1881
01:44:05.720 --> 01:44:09.439
you know, and kind of just thought maybe somehow God

1882
01:44:09.479 --> 01:44:12.239
would grate on the curve, I guess, so to speak, right.

1883
01:44:12.880 --> 01:44:14.760
Well he does, but we all failed.

1884
01:44:14.680 --> 01:44:17.920
Right, even on the curve. Yeah, even on the curb fail.

1885
01:44:18.439 --> 01:44:21.199
So nobody's blowing the curve. And that's why we had

1886
01:44:21.199 --> 01:44:24.239
to have Jesus. And honestly, I think, I mean, I'm

1887
01:44:24.239 --> 01:44:27.159
sort of joking, but I'm but I'm really not in that.

1888
01:44:28.479 --> 01:44:31.479
You know, one of the core truths of the Christian

1889
01:44:31.560 --> 01:44:35.960
life is realizing it's not about me. It's not about

1890
01:44:35.960 --> 01:44:40.520
me performing my way into God's good graces because you know,

1891
01:44:40.880 --> 01:44:45.640
even my you know, my tears of repentance need to

1892
01:44:45.640 --> 01:44:50.000
be washed in the blood of Christ. So Jesus, Jesus

1893
01:44:50.039 --> 01:44:52.800
is the one who makes me whole. And Jesus is

1894
01:44:52.840 --> 01:44:55.520
the one who paved the way for me to be

1895
01:44:55.600 --> 01:44:58.199
in right relationship and with God again. And I think

1896
01:44:58.479 --> 01:45:01.960
when we go to church, when we participate in Christian community,

1897
01:45:03.000 --> 01:45:06.359
it's that grace note it reminds us of what's true.

1898
01:45:06.640 --> 01:45:09.199
It gives us fuel.

1899
01:45:08.920 --> 01:45:14.840
And motivation and inspiration and importantly relationship to help us

1900
01:45:14.840 --> 01:45:17.239
to stay committed to that right exactly.

1901
01:45:17.399 --> 01:45:22.079
Well, you know, for those musicians out there, they understand

1902
01:45:22.079 --> 01:45:24.720
that their instrument needs to be tuned right, right, it

1903
01:45:24.760 --> 01:45:28.039
needs to be one note right and so that you

1904
01:45:28.119 --> 01:45:30.439
are consistent. And that's one of the reasons why we

1905
01:45:30.520 --> 01:45:32.920
go to the word of God, why we fellowship with others,

1906
01:45:33.119 --> 01:45:35.520
to make sure the instrument that God is blessed us with,

1907
01:45:35.760 --> 01:45:39.399
that it's in tune. It's in tune with the truth

1908
01:45:40.039 --> 01:45:45.079
and God's word, so that we can have discernment because

1909
01:45:45.359 --> 01:45:47.600
guess what we're coming to those days that the Bible

1910
01:45:47.640 --> 01:45:51.840
has talked about where even God's elect could be deceived.

1911
01:45:51.439 --> 01:45:54.840
Right, yeah, Yeah, there's a lot of deception out there,

1912
01:45:54.880 --> 01:45:58.399
and it works on so many layers, right, I mean, it.

1913
01:45:59.319 --> 01:46:02.319
Works on the the worldview later, but it even works

1914
01:46:02.359 --> 01:46:04.520
in more superficial ways, especially with.

1915
01:46:05.319 --> 01:46:09.079
The advent of ai uh and so much you know,

1916
01:46:09.279 --> 01:46:14.359
content being generated that just discerning Okay, is this true?

1917
01:46:14.520 --> 01:46:17.680
Is this real? Is this something that you know a

1918
01:46:17.800 --> 01:46:21.520
robot wrote? Is this video I'm watching even a real person?

1919
01:46:22.800 --> 01:46:26.039
I think the possibility for deception has never been greater

1920
01:46:26.159 --> 01:46:29.920
which means that the need for discernment and being anchored

1921
01:46:29.920 --> 01:46:33.119
in the Word and anchored in truth and in community,

1922
01:46:33.399 --> 01:46:35.000
that need has never been higher.

1923
01:46:35.000 --> 01:46:36.760
I don't think Bill.

1924
01:46:36.239 --> 01:46:39.560
Right exactly well. And this is where, you know, like

1925
01:46:39.600 --> 01:46:43.359
we were talking about in Dallas and the Chosen, it's

1926
01:46:43.399 --> 01:46:47.520
a collaborative effort. It's lots of minds coming together and

1927
01:46:47.640 --> 01:46:50.399
checking one another and being able to have that kind

1928
01:46:50.439 --> 01:46:53.479
of you know, creative license to be able to say, hey,

1929
01:46:53.520 --> 01:46:57.039
this is what I'm seeing in this particular part of scripture.

1930
01:46:57.640 --> 01:47:00.760
Does that rhyme with you, regardless of your background, whether

1931
01:47:00.760 --> 01:47:04.479
you're a Catholic background of Pentecostal or you're Jewish, you know, right?

1932
01:47:05.119 --> 01:47:08.680
And I just sense that these collaborative meetings. I would

1933
01:47:08.720 --> 01:47:10.319
just love to be able to sit in on one

1934
01:47:10.319 --> 01:47:10.880
of those meetings.

1935
01:47:10.920 --> 01:47:13.079
Yeah, you know well, and I think that you're exactly

1936
01:47:13.159 --> 01:47:18.439
right in that Dallas has invited people from different Biblical

1937
01:47:18.560 --> 01:47:22.279
and Christian traditions to be a part of sort of

1938
01:47:22.920 --> 01:47:26.239
fact checking what he's doing. You know, is this Am

1939
01:47:26.239 --> 01:47:28.880
I on the right track here? And so there is

1940
01:47:28.920 --> 01:47:32.239
accountability built in there and and we you know, Bill,

1941
01:47:32.279 --> 01:47:36.920
we live in this this culture that is so radically

1942
01:47:37.039 --> 01:47:39.920
individual and I think as Christians we recognize that when

1943
01:47:39.920 --> 01:47:43.960
people start talking about my truth and your truth, that

1944
01:47:44.119 --> 01:47:47.600
we recognize the relativism there. But man, we have to

1945
01:47:47.600 --> 01:47:49.960
be careful as Christians not to slip into a more

1946
01:47:50.000 --> 01:47:52.319
subtle version of the same thing, right that.

1947
01:47:52.479 --> 01:47:54.039
Yeah, well, that's the temptation, isn't it.

1948
01:47:54.119 --> 01:47:56.399
That is the temptation. That is the temptation.

1949
01:47:56.800 --> 01:47:58.840
That's what they call drifting, you know, you just drift

1950
01:47:58.960 --> 01:48:01.640
off course. It's ever it's ever so subtle. But getting

1951
01:48:01.640 --> 01:48:03.640
back to what we were talking about in terms of hope,

1952
01:48:03.800 --> 01:48:06.640
this is what God Almighty gives us that no other religion,

1953
01:48:07.199 --> 01:48:11.039
no other religion, no other God out there. I mean,

1954
01:48:11.079 --> 01:48:16.399
time and again we see that God is consistent saying yesterday, today,

1955
01:48:16.479 --> 01:48:21.279
and forever and overwriting all this, Adam, and this is

1956
01:48:21.600 --> 01:48:24.359
I think sometimes when I share this with people, I

1957
01:48:24.359 --> 01:48:26.640
can just see how it touches their heart. It penetrates

1958
01:48:26.840 --> 01:48:28.920
even the hardest of hearts, as I say, do you

1959
01:48:28.960 --> 01:48:32.279
realize how much God loves you? And it causes them

1960
01:48:32.319 --> 01:48:35.600
to pause, And I think, you know, and I think

1961
01:48:35.640 --> 01:48:39.520
that's something especially in the season of hope. That and

1962
01:48:39.800 --> 01:48:43.319
I've got think back even before Jesus came you know,

1963
01:48:43.479 --> 01:48:48.000
the first time, you know, two thousand years ago. Before that,

1964
01:48:48.119 --> 01:48:50.119
the people, you know, when you read the book of

1965
01:48:50.119 --> 01:48:54.000
Malachi and from that time, from Malachi to to Matthew

1966
01:48:54.399 --> 01:48:59.279
in the First Gospel, that's what people held onto especially,

1967
01:48:59.800 --> 01:49:02.600
you know, they've been waiting for hundreds thousands of years

1968
01:49:02.920 --> 01:49:05.840
for God's promise, and there were just hope upon hope

1969
01:49:06.000 --> 01:49:08.720
that God was going to deliver for them. And then

1970
01:49:08.760 --> 01:49:11.520
God did in the form of a baby, which you

1971
01:49:11.560 --> 01:49:14.840
know was hard for them to you know, to really discern,

1972
01:49:15.399 --> 01:49:17.600
but right, but you know, we look at it. We

1973
01:49:17.680 --> 01:49:19.720
have the advantage of looking at it, you know, two

1974
01:49:19.760 --> 01:49:21.840
thousand years after the fact, that we go, how did

1975
01:49:21.840 --> 01:49:25.479
these knuckleheads miss that said born in Bethlehem. He was

1976
01:49:25.479 --> 01:49:27.600
born in Bethlehem, would be from the Rudy Jesse, from

1977
01:49:27.600 --> 01:49:30.640
the Rudi Jouse, all these you know, prophecies and everything

1978
01:49:30.680 --> 01:49:34.079
like that, and there's only one person who's you know,

1979
01:49:34.279 --> 01:49:37.640
check that check check check, check check, and they didn't

1980
01:49:37.640 --> 01:49:40.920
see it. But we have the you know, the blessed

1981
01:49:41.039 --> 01:49:43.960
opportunity of seeing it two thousand years after the fact.

1982
01:49:44.000 --> 01:49:48.399
But even then, even then and now we still we

1983
01:49:48.800 --> 01:49:50.000
still have our doubts.

1984
01:49:50.479 --> 01:49:53.159
We do, and you know, I would add to that

1985
01:49:53.159 --> 01:49:56.640
that the hope that we have in Christ is equally

1986
01:49:56.720 --> 01:50:02.439
accessible by everybody. That God doesn't play favorites. And my

1987
01:50:02.479 --> 01:50:04.119
wife and I were out to eat last night and

1988
01:50:04.159 --> 01:50:06.279
I was just sort of in a reflective moment. I

1989
01:50:06.319 --> 01:50:08.319
was just looking around at the different people in the

1990
01:50:08.359 --> 01:50:13.279
restaurant and young people, old people, people getting off work, drinking,

1991
01:50:13.520 --> 01:50:15.560
families with babies, and I thought, you know.

1992
01:50:16.239 --> 01:50:17.600
Who are all these people?

1993
01:50:18.239 --> 01:50:21.920
Every single one of them has an individual hope and

1994
01:50:22.039 --> 01:50:26.159
life and dreams. And God knows every single one of them,

1995
01:50:26.760 --> 01:50:29.319
and He loves them no more and no less than

1996
01:50:29.359 --> 01:50:32.880
he loves me. Right, And it kind of when you

1997
01:50:32.960 --> 01:50:36.720
sit back and think about the fact that God knows

1998
01:50:36.760 --> 01:50:38.600
all of us, and you know the hair is on

1999
01:50:38.640 --> 01:50:42.039
our head, whether they be thinning or gray or whatever.

2000
01:50:43.039 --> 01:50:46.600
It blows your mind. Bill that we serve a God

2001
01:50:46.640 --> 01:50:48.000
that knows us that intimately.

2002
01:50:48.720 --> 01:50:51.520
Well, with that, we're gonna let our audience ponder on

2003
01:50:51.560 --> 01:50:54.640
that until next week. Adam Haltz from plugged in dot

2005
01:50:57.279 --> 01:50:59.800
Right, Yeah, that is correct. That is correct.

2006
01:51:00.319 --> 01:51:04.119
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

2007
01:51:04.319 --> 01:51:07.960
You're spending more. You are making the same or less money.

2008
01:51:08.319 --> 01:51:09.279
So what do you do?

2009
01:51:09.760 --> 01:51:11.960
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

2010
01:51:12.439 --> 01:51:15.840
It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what.

2011
01:51:16.399 --> 01:51:18.520
If you rack up too much credit card debt, like

2012
01:51:18.560 --> 01:51:21.239
some of us, you can't pay your bills. Then the

2013
01:51:21.319 --> 01:51:24.840
credit card companies, as nice as they are, start hounding

2014
01:51:24.840 --> 01:51:28.680
you for money. Then you start your downward spiral. A

2015
01:51:28.880 --> 01:51:30.880
smart thing for you to do is to call the
