1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:04.799
Are you ready, Yeah, Okay, let's do an Ill Martinez Live,

2
00:00:05.320 --> 00:00:10.199
a program about current events, our culture, our values, our politics,

3
00:00:10.240 --> 00:00:11.160
and our future.

4
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:13.880
And now Bill Martinez.

5
00:00:15.359 --> 00:00:17.640
Well, good morning America. Six minutes after the top of

6
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:20.600
the hour. Bill Martinez here along with doctor Paul Kenor,

7
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:25.399
professional professor of political science and Chief Academic Fellow at

8
00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:28.839
the Institute for Faith and Freedom at Grove City College. Paul,

9
00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:30.559
good morning, Good to have you with us.

10
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:31.760
Yeah, good morning, Bill.

11
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:35.079
We got about six inches of snow here in western Pennsylvania.

12
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.520
Definitely a white Christmas for sure.

13
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:41.479
But not frightful though, right, well, I don't know.

14
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:44.280
The roads this morning are kind of frightful. My wife

15
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:46.079
just walked in the door, and I was happy to

16
00:00:46.119 --> 00:00:46.439
see her.

17
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:47.000
Believe me.

18
00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:50.359
I was like, you pretty treacherous out there.

19
00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:52.600
Yeah, I imagine in that kind of weather, you know,

20
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.119
loved ones leave, you know, go out the door, and

21
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:56.719
you start burning novena candles.

22
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:58.079
You know, that's exactly right.

23
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:01.799
I'm with you on it, burning novena candles. I think

24
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:06.519
Maduro is looking for novena candles to burn after you know,

25
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:10.239
President Trump seized his one of his tankers, right of course,

26
00:01:10.359 --> 00:01:13.000
And it's always the biggest. I love Trump whenever he

27
00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:16.120
seeses anything or doesn't, it's it's the biggest ever in

28
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:18.040
the history, right, right.

29
00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:20.840
Right, while Medora has kind of metaphorically burned all.

30
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.640
The oil in Venezuela, right, I mean, and by the way,

31
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.120
it's a great example of what socialism gives you. At

32
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.480
one point, Venezuela was the largest oil exporter.

33
00:01:29.120 --> 00:01:30.879
In the entire Western hemisphere.

34
00:01:31.519 --> 00:01:33.519
And I mean a lot of people don't realize that

35
00:01:33.959 --> 00:01:37.840
at one point we got more foreign oil from Venezuela

36
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:40.120
in America than we did in the Middle East.

37
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:41.040
And then what.

38
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:45.439
Happened, Well, the Venezuelan people kind of elected Hugo Chavez.

39
00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:48.159
You know, leave it once again to some of these

40
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:51.439
Latin American countries to elect a socialist.

41
00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:53.359
It was, it was a skewed election.

42
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:56.439
But then once these guys are in, they're in, right,

43
00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:59.599
they hold their quote unquote elections every few years, and

44
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:02.200
they they you know, they tamper with him and it's

45
00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.879
almost impossible to get him out. So Chavez, Chavez puts

46
00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:10.599
him in place, you know, kind of a socialist communist state,

47
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:13.360
one of the least free countries in the world, probably

48
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:17.520
only Cuba. His mentor Fidel Castro and North Korea under

49
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.759
the Kyms are probably the only countries that are worse.

50
00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:23.919
And then he died kind of early. I think it

51
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:26.439
was maybe only in his late fifties when he died

52
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:31.680
to kept the faith, went to Havana for for cancer

53
00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:38.360
treatment which was probably like leeches and you know, maybe hypnosis,

54
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:40.360
and you know, I don't know whatever it was.

55
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:42.840
But he kept the faith and he died. You've got

56
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:43.919
that great health.

57
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.840
Care that Cuba that all the liberals in America tell

58
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.400
us about. So he turns over the keys to Nicholas Maduro,

59
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:53.680
and Meduro has been a thorn in the side of

60
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:57.319
the people of Venezuela and the entire Western hemisphere ever since.

61
00:02:57.759 --> 00:02:59.960
So I'm glad to see Donald Trump taking him on.

62
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.400
I don't know where exactly this is going to go.

63
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.080
I keep thinking of this though, Bill, you and I

64
00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:09.240
are old enough to remember. I remember being in college

65
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:14.280
on Christmas Day in nineteen eighty nine when we invaded

66
00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:19.400
Panama and when after Manuel Noriega, and I keep thinking, like,

67
00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:24.159
you know, December twenty twenty five. At this point, we're

68
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:27.240
about two weeks from Christmas. I wonder if something like

69
00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:29.919
this is going to happen with America and Venezuela. I

70
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:33.000
don't know, not exactly what you want to see on Christmas.

71
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:34.479
Morning, Yeah, exactly.

72
00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:36.120
Yeah, I don't know who this is going to go.

73
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.120
Yeah, all I want for Christmas is regime change there.

74
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:44.479
And of course, meanwhile, you've got the president in exile,

75
00:03:45.039 --> 00:03:51.000
you know, the Venezuelan leader, Maria Corrina Machado sneaks her

76
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:56.000
way into Oslo, Norway, under disguise and receives the Nobel

77
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:56.879
Peace Prize.

78
00:03:58.000 --> 00:03:59.719
Yeah, yeah, I'm very impressed with her.

79
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:02.680
And you know, we were all everybody was pushing for

80
00:04:02.759 --> 00:04:05.840
Donald Trump to get the Nobel Peace Prize after what

81
00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:08.439
happened with Israel and the Abraham Accords there just a

82
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:09.439
few weeks ago.

83
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:13.879
And not to mention eight other countries that he kept

84
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:18.480
them from war or stopped the war, right, And you know,

85
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.519
it's just unbelievable what he's been able to do. And

86
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:24.560
this is why, Paul I tell you, Donald Trump has

87
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:29.560
introduced an aspect and element to tariffs that heretofore has

88
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:34.959
not been I guess exercised maybe historically, I think back,

89
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.160
I don't know that any other president ever used tariffs

90
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:39.439
to stop wars.

91
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:42.439
Yeah no, and he's really done it in a very

92
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:45.079
innovative way. And I've got a lot of conservative friends,

93
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:49.240
free market guys, and really good guys, really thoughtful guys

94
00:04:49.279 --> 00:04:52.360
who don't like this at all because it's hurting their business.

95
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:52.879
They believe.

96
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:55.560
But if you look at the overall data on this,

97
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.160
I mean, people were talking about this is going to

98
00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:01.600
be another Smoot Holly tariffs situation, right, this is going

99
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:04.920
to cast everybody into a global depression, and.

100
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:06.160
That hasn't happened at all.

101
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:10.480
I've seen mixed data on you know, net positive effect

102
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:13.680
net negative, but it hasn't led to like, you know,

103
00:05:13.759 --> 00:05:18.160
this downward spiral of retaliatory tariffs like we saw in

104
00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:24.000
nineteen thirty. And Donald Trump, I mean, people don't get this.

105
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:26.560
Well, a lot of people do get it, but you know,

106
00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:26.920
he's a.

107
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:31.759
Businessman and he understands economics, he understands tariffs.

108
00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.839
He really does know how that stuff works.

109
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:38.480
And he also knows how incredibly big and vast and

110
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:41.759
diverse the American economy is and our.

111
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:46.959
GDP our GNP. So he's so far, so good.

112
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:50.279
I think it hasn't been the catastrophe everybody thought.

113
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:52.120
And he really has.

114
00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.000
Used the tariffs in a you know, a kind of

115
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.560
bargaining way, punitive in some cases in which it's deserved,

116
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:02.360
and Trump seven million times. Well, the problem with country

117
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:06.079
countries like China is that they cheat. Yeah, And at

118
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:09.040
some point, I mean, you can't just be a sap

119
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.240
and a sucker. You've got to You've got to turn

120
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.839
back at the cheater and say, all right, tip for tap,

121
00:06:14.879 --> 00:06:16.839
if you're going to do that to us, here's what

122
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:17.480
we're gonna.

123
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:17.720
Do to you.

124
00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:20.959
Well, you know, we can't be the only one playing

125
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:22.839
by the rules in US.

126
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:27.160
So to Paul, as you mentioned, because he is a businessman,

127
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.199
he understands. He's smart enough to see what's going on.

128
00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:32.439
I mean he he's got all the numbers, he's got

129
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:34.920
all the data, and he sees what sectors are hurting,

130
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.720
and he also understands why some of them may be

131
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:42.560
hurting and some of them as I'm looking at this, Paul, Uh,

132
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:46.000
the ones that align themselves with the previous administration and

133
00:06:46.079 --> 00:06:49.839
Democratic Party policies, they're the ones that are the most

134
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:54.199
exposed and vulnerable. The other ones that weren't, you know,

135
00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:00.759
UH saddled and slaves to UH. All all the scams

136
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:05.160
that the Biden administration, you know, thrust upon our economy.

137
00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:07.639
They're the ones that are you know, seem to be

138
00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:11.000
more vibrant. I mean, even Secretary of Bergham this morning

139
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.120
stated that when it comes to energy, for example, Paul,

140
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:18.600
the states that are that are doing really great, that

141
00:07:18.639 --> 00:07:21.839
are producing you know, you go to the gas pump

142
00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:24.160
and you're getting gas in the low two dollars. There

143
00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:26.759
was I think there was like seven states last week

144
00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:29.680
that were under two dollars. Here in Florida, I went

145
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:31.560
and got gas the other day was two dollars and

146
00:07:31.600 --> 00:07:35.879
fifty nine cents. And what he said that was consistent. Again,

147
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:38.879
we get reds and blues. The red states when it

148
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:42.439
comes to energy, are more successful. Rates are lower. The

149
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.959
Blue states are the ones that are paying the high prices.

150
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:47.279
And they're the ones that are you know, kind of

151
00:07:47.519 --> 00:07:50.079
because we got we gotta put them in the mix.

152
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:53.319
They're the ones that are kind of imbalancing the cost

153
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.199
of gas and showing gas a little bit higher because

154
00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:59.680
I think nationally we're just we're just around three dollars

155
00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:02.879
I guess now nationally, but we'd even be lower if

156
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:04.079
you took the Blue states out.

157
00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:06.360
Yeah, well, no, question about that.

158
00:08:06.439 --> 00:08:09.079
In fact, Pennsylvania, where I live, is a really odd place.

159
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:12.600
We actually have the highest gas taxes in the country,

160
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:15.839
even worse in some ways in California.

161
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:17.720
I was gonna say worse in California.

162
00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.519
I know, it's really an odd thing when you crunch

163
00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:23.040
the data, you have to look at it. But Pennsylvania

164
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:25.920
and California are two worse. And I don't know what

165
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.720
California is. It's probably still four and a half dollars

166
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:29.560
a gallon or something.

167
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:32.639
It's been staying pretty steady around five bucks.

168
00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:34.039
Yeah, crazy.

169
00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:37.759
But in Pennsylvania right now it's down in the low

170
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.879
three dollar range, maybe about three ten, three twenty. And

171
00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:45.200
I have this big, giant, twelve passenger van that we

172
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:48.720
call it our family Baptist church van. Right, I have

173
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:52.360
eight kids, and it's a thirty gallon tank, and I

174
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:54.279
can tell you build it for like in the last

175
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.639
five or six years, when I've had to fill it up,

176
00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:59.679
it literally costs over one hundred dollars to fill it up.

177
00:09:00.159 --> 00:09:03.039
So I actually have had occasions in the last few

178
00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.159
weeks where I filled it up from a completely empty

179
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:07.320
tank and kept it under one hundred dollars.

180
00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:10.399
And I thought Wow, look at that right. Yeah, that's amazing.

181
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:10.879
Right.

182
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.519

280
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:14.639
saying Hallelujah, I mean lower gas prices in the Baptist

281
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:17.200
van is not costing so much when it comes to

282
00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:18.679
filling up the guess tank, right.

283
00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:20.279
That's exactly right.

284
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:23.679
And also circling this back to Donald Trump.

285
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:27.200
Here in Pennsylvania, which of course Donald Trump won, making

286
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:31.720
Pennsylvania red state once again, we have fracking in this

287
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:34.600
part of the state. In fact, I'm like literally looking

288
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:37.440
out my back window and I'm probably over shale gas

289
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:40.200
reserves right now on the street that I'm on. I

290
00:14:40.240 --> 00:14:42.600
had someone knocking on the door about ten years ago

291
00:14:42.720 --> 00:14:46.759
asking to buy property right money from our house, going

292
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:47.759
up and down our street.

293
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:50.360
Because this entire area, Coal.

294
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:53.960
Country, steel Country is really rich in those resources. And

295
00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:57.759
in fact, speaking of oil, oil was first drilled in

296
00:14:57.840 --> 00:15:03.399
America domestically here in penns Sylvania, Titusville, Quaker State oil City.

297
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:04.240
Oil City is.

298
00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:06.960
About a thirty minute drive from my house, then eventually

299
00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:08.919
went to Texas and eventually went to the Middle East

300
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:13.679
and also places like Venezuela. But here, Yeah, because of

301
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:18.240
what Donald Trump has done for fracking and energy, all

302
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:22.120
completely contrary to what any of the Democrats would have done.

303
00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:27.519
Especially Kamala Harris has been huge for this area. And

304
00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.440
I should also add, you know, the industry that uses

305
00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:36.519
so much oil steel US Steel, you know, the Pittsburgh Steelers, right,

306
00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:39.279
that's all part of this area. The people in this

307
00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:44.320
area are thrilled Bill that Donald Trump came in and

308
00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:45.919
working He and JD.

309
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.799
Vance, Marco Rubio and by the way.

310
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:53.320
Working with people like John Fetterman, Joe Mansion from West Virginia,

311
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.159
even Shared Brown of Ohio who was defeated in the

312
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:02.879
last election. But they all together to to to quite

313
00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:07.080
literally keep US Steel called US steel because because the

314
00:16:07.159 --> 00:16:09.639
Japanese wanted to buy it, they wanted to change the

315
00:16:09.720 --> 00:16:12.840
name to Nippon Steel. And you know what Trump has

316
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:15.879
done in western Pennsylvania for the steel industry is something

317
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:20.039
that every blue collar union American.

318
00:16:20.480 --> 00:16:22.600
I mean, they had to be building statues.

319
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.559
To exactly with holy water, holy water coming out of.

320
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:29.559
His left ear right, that's exactly what he's saying.

321
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:31.919
Yeah, right, right, right.

322
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:35.919
But no, you're well, And the thing is is that, yeah,

323
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:38.360
I mean, he really did. He did so much in

324
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.679
reviving uh, you know, Pittsburgh, and and of course his

325
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:46.440
uh you know, Susie Wiles gets the President on the

326
00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:48.600
road saying, hey, look at you got to start pounding

327
00:16:48.600 --> 00:16:53.120
the mission drum. Again of affordability, and Pennsylvania's his first stop, right,

328
00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:54.480
that's right.

329
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:56.240
And she's really good by the way. I mean she

330
00:16:56.360 --> 00:16:57.320
once again is.

331
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:02.360
This like under the radar, uh player with Trump advisor

332
00:17:02.440 --> 00:17:06.240
who really really helps keep him on track and and

333
00:17:06.400 --> 00:17:12.079
reminds him of who his constituency is, which smart politics

334
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:16.279
to do and say to say smart politics. Also it

335
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:20.039
almost sounds a bit cynical, right, it's not so much

336
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:23.160
that they're playing politics, but her pointing out the good

337
00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:26.519
things that he's done, that that people need to be

338
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:29.319
cognizant of, the they need they need to remember that.

339
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:32.359
And she's very good, you know, kind of pulling.

340
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:34.400
Him back from the edge when he's just about to

341
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:37.519
go and do something you know, kind of impetuous and stupid.

342
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:41.039
Yeah, and say, you know, stay stay.

343
00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:45.119
Focused here on what you did in western Pennsylvania or

344
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:47.519
what you did here, because you did a good thing

345
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:50.319
here and people need to know this, and uh, you

346
00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:52.559
know that's where your presidency should be focused.

347
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:53.119
Yeah.

348
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:56.680
She seems to be able to control his emotions and

349
00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:59.720
he's a very passionate man, and she brings him back,

350
00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:02.720
she seems to bring him back to you know, ground zero,

351
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:04.160
brings him back down to earth here.

352
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:07.359
Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree one of presenting he

353
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:09.920
needs more people like that. And I would say generally

354
00:18:09.960 --> 00:18:13.440
as a commentary bill on his second term, I mean,

355
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:17.480
it's so much better than the first because he really

356
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:21.759
has the people around him that serve his interests.

357
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:23.079
In that first term.

358
00:18:23.680 --> 00:18:27.079
This you know, this businessman from New York kind of

359
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:31.240
went to probably the r n C and other Republican

360
00:18:31.319 --> 00:18:34.640
Party players and said, Okay, who do I get for

361
00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:36.119
my Secretary of Defense?

362
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:36.680
Right?

363
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:39.839
Who do I get my National security advisor? And so

364
00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:44.039
they end up getting people like Rex Tillerson and Maddis

365
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:45.039
and all these other.

366
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:45.440
Kind of.

367
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:49.920
Exactly kind of you know, smump preachers.

368
00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:54.359
Now this time around, he goes and he picks someone

369
00:18:54.400 --> 00:18:56.759
like Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense.

370
00:18:56.839 --> 00:18:59.880
Right, We're all like, wow hegseeth right.

371
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:02.680
Somebody that that he came to meet through Fox News,

372
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:05.720
but then realized that this was a guy.

373
00:19:05.519 --> 00:19:09.039
Who was super smart and maybe could do a job

374
00:19:09.119 --> 00:19:09.440
like that.

375
00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:15.079
Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, Susie Wilds, and just really

376
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:17.680
just the whole host of different people that he has it.

377
00:19:17.920 --> 00:19:21.039
In cash Ptel and you know, you know, you look

378
00:19:21.039 --> 00:19:24.960
at that cabinet, Paul, and we remember not that long

379
00:19:24.960 --> 00:19:28.319
ago when you would see rarely but you would see

380
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:32.440
Biden's cabinet. It just doesn't compare mm hmm.

381
00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:33.079
No, that's right.

382
00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:36.440
And and Joe Biden, I mean, whatever the cabinet was,

383
00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:39.759
whoever was in charge of the signing pen. And what

384
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:44.720
was really, of course a real great frustration and mystery

385
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:47.319
of Joe Biden was how much of what was coming

386
00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:50.160
out of his administration was his doing. And you and

387
00:19:50.200 --> 00:19:53.519
I talked a number of times about how Joe Biden

388
00:19:53.599 --> 00:19:56.400
back when he was in the Senate, it was kind

389
00:19:56.440 --> 00:19:59.880
of a fairly moderate Democrat, right, like on an is

390
00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:03.160
like abortion, he was, you know, he was quote unquote

391
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:06.480
pro choice, but it wasn't terrible. At least he supported

392
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:10.920
the High Amendment, right, he was against taxpayer funding of

393
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:16.279
abortion for people had religious objections, he honored those. And

394
00:20:16.319 --> 00:20:18.480
then he gets in there and he goes against all

395
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:23.319
of that, becomes this kind of lgbt Q radical. Speaking

396
00:20:23.359 --> 00:20:26.759
of defense appointments, right, he makes you know, Rachel Richard

397
00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:33.000
Dick Levine an honorary four star admiral something like that, right,

398
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:37.599
you know, compare compare Rachel Levine to like R. F.

399
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:38.359
K Junior.

400
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:44.400
So, but but with Biden, it was just this completely chaotic,

401
00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:45.559
crazy situation.

402
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:49.240
And if the President of.

403
00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:51.200
Times didn't even know who he was talking to we're

404
00:20:51.200 --> 00:20:56.119
talking about, he'd know the conference, he'd have a statement

405
00:20:56.119 --> 00:20:58.240
on Maduro when he'd go out, and he'd read it,

406
00:20:58.279 --> 00:21:03.319
and the president been a kim Il sung right.

407
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:06.960
It was just it was just absurd, the whole thing.

408
00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:09.160
At least now we know who's in charge.

409
00:21:09.200 --> 00:21:13.480
Right exactly, and we'll see what happens with the auto

410
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:18.000
pen controversy, as you mentioned, and if some of those pardons,

411
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.839
what over four thousand pardons with the autopen except for one,

412
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:23.720
I think he only signed one and that was the

413
00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:24.519
one for his son.

414
00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:26.039
Amazing.

415
00:21:26.160 --> 00:21:27.559
Yeah, really, I mean think about it.

416
00:21:27.599 --> 00:21:28.359
What does that tell you?

417
00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:29.240
Really astonishing?

418
00:21:29.480 --> 00:21:29.680
Yeah.

419
00:21:29.680 --> 00:21:31.799
The only thing that probably out did that were his

420
00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:33.400
executive orders, right.

421
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:35.319
Oh yeah, right, exactly. Yeah.

422
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:38.400
And he only didn't complain about executive orders when they're

423
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:40.839
done by a Republican. They love them when they're done

424
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:45.720
by Biden Obama Fdr Woodrow Wilson, I mean the lefties,

425
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:48.279
the liberal presidents or the king of executive orders?

426
00:21:48.680 --> 00:21:54.119
Exactly. Do you think that Biden got over influenced by

427
00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:58.880
Barack Obama. Maybe that's what altered some of his mindset,

428
00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:02.319
not to mention his mental deficiency, probably adding to that.

429
00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:05.039
I think it's more the latter.

430
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:08.720
I mean, when he was VP under Obama and here

431
00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:12.599
again on the abortion issue, he actually helped guide Obama

432
00:22:12.680 --> 00:22:15.640
a little bit, or tried to on issues like taxpayer

433
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:17.440
funding of abortion and Obamacare.

434
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.000
And he was a little bit of a kind.

435
00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:25.440
Of remaining, kind of Catholic voice of conscience who tried

436
00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:28.319
to make things not quite as bad as they were

437
00:22:28.359 --> 00:22:30.960
going under Obama. And then by the time that he

438
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:35.400
gets into office four six, eight years later, whatever, I

439
00:22:35.400 --> 00:22:38.440
think he was just so far gone that he didn't

440
00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:39.559
know what the hell he was doing.

441
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:43.599
You're probably right the minute left here, Paul. What's going

442
00:22:43.640 --> 00:22:50.039
on with Pennsylvania's lottery the gift that is suspicious to

443
00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:51.119
say the least.

444
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:55.960
Yeah, I really detest the way that government has seized gambling.

445
00:22:56.440 --> 00:22:58.680
They've taken over what we used to call the numbers

446
00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:03.079
racket that was run by the mob. It's amazing, it's great,

447
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:06.640
and it's now run by government. And they promoted a

448
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:10.240
Christmas time be Mary play the lottery and if any

449
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:13.960
private sector company ripped you off and gave you the

450
00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:15.799
lack of return for your dollar.

451
00:23:16.240 --> 00:23:17.039
The lotteries do.

452
00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:19.400
The liberals will be trying to shut it down, put

453
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:22.640
them out of business, but instead they've seized it because

454
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:25.519
they like it, because it's good for them. So it's

455
00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:28.839
a big taxpayer rip off scheme and pretty much every

456
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:30.880
state engages in it, and liberals love it.

457
00:23:31.400 --> 00:23:34.519
So we get to get the vision and image of

458
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:40.319
Bethlehem with the lottery. The lottery mile over.

459
00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:43.920
The baby Jesus, right, that's right, yeah, Jesus holding a

460
00:23:43.920 --> 00:23:47.680
lottery ticket. Yeah, scratch here, make a million dollars except

461
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:48.200
what you want.

462
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:52.119

Welcome morning, America. Great to have you with us. Bill

540
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:14.480
Martinez here with the one and only Horace Cooper, a

541
00:28:14.559 --> 00:28:19.839
former constitutional law professor, recognized legal commentator, and author. He's

542
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:22.839
here too. We'll we'll talk about Scotus. We'll also talk

543
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:27.599
about the latest that's happening off of Venezuela. Horace Cooper,

544
00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:31.599
Welcome always, Happy New Year, Merry Christmas.

545
00:28:31.119 --> 00:28:35.240
Happy New Year, Merry Christmas. I'm really really excited for

546
00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:37.599
all the great things that God has in store for

547
00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:39.960
America and for me and my family.

548
00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:42.720
Well, you know, this is the thing I keep telling people.

549
00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:44.640
I mean, it's kind of amazing what's going on right

550
00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:48.319
now if you have ice to see, God is really moving.

551
00:28:48.400 --> 00:28:51.279
I mean, there's things that are happening here in our

552
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:54.440
country that the media, mainstream media, which tells you where

553
00:28:54.440 --> 00:28:56.960
the mainstream media is at. And of course the left,

554
00:28:57.079 --> 00:28:59.480
I mean, they're so godless. I mean I feel for

555
00:28:59.559 --> 00:29:03.359
them and I pray for them because you know, they

556
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:07.640
are a danger to themselves and their families by decidedly

557
00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:11.480
making a decision to turn their backs on God. Right.

558
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:18.200
Well, absolutely, this is part of what the Old Testament says,

559
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:21.839
you know, in second Chronicles, my people who are called

560
00:29:21.880 --> 00:29:26.920
by my name, right, the Lord says that if we

561
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:32.960
repent and we acknowledge Him, that he and we turn

562
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:36.880
from eric wicked ways, that he will hear our prayers,

563
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:41.400
and he will hear he'll ourlan There are the earliest

564
00:29:41.480 --> 00:29:47.279
stages of a revival happening in America, and it's been

565
00:29:47.759 --> 00:29:54.480
sorely needed. You know, in America, we've had a couple

566
00:29:54.920 --> 00:29:59.240
of really big revivals. We had one right after the

567
00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:03.200
Civil War. We had another one right after World War Two.

568
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:06.400
Billy Graham was a big part of it. We thought

569
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:09.440
we were going to start one. You know, I was

570
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:12.920
two or three years old, but we thought America thought

571
00:30:13.039 --> 00:30:15.279
it would start one with what was called the Jesus

572
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:20.759
Movement in the seventies. But we are really starting to

573
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:25.319
see record numbers of our young people going to church

574
00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:33.079
accepting salvation. And my prayer is that that just expands

575
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:39.240
and expands, and what dc is a outcome that pleases God.

576
00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:43.519
And when he is pleased, there will be blessings for

577
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:48.839
our society, even for those who don't honor him exactly.

578
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:51.720
You know, the thing is, again we're reminded how much

579
00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:53.880
God loves us. I mean, here it is the Christmas season.

580
00:30:53.920 --> 00:30:57.279
We're an advent, the greatest gift that God gave us

581
00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:02.200
and his son. But you know, count second Chronicle seven fourteen,

582
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:05.279
which again is a demonstration of God's love for us

583
00:31:05.319 --> 00:31:07.319
because he knew that we were going to mess up,

584
00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:12.200
and he inspired the leadership of Israel to make that

585
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:16.519
proclamation that when you screw up, you know God will

586
00:31:16.559 --> 00:31:19.759
forgive you. And you got to know that first of all,

587
00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:25.519
that God recognizes you as his people, right, you're not aliens,

588
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:29.160
you're not illegal, you are his people. And he says,

589
00:31:29.599 --> 00:31:33.359
if his people, and so you're sanctified and set aside

590
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:37.559
because he calls you by name. You know, if my

591
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:40.000
people who are called by my name, and he calls

592
00:31:40.039 --> 00:31:41.400
us by her name. I mean, this is how much

593
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.200
this again manifestation, This is clear evidence, if I can

594
00:31:45.240 --> 00:31:48.640
put it in legal terms, Horace, that God loves us

595
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:50.440
because he knows that we're going to mess up, and

596
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:52.200
he gave us a remedy. He said, look at if

597
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:55.839
you will acknowledge that you have gotten outside and over

598
00:31:55.880 --> 00:31:58.440
your skis and you've been a knucklehead. Hey, look at

599
00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:01.839
I'm the father who loves you. I will forgive you

600
00:32:01.839 --> 00:32:05.480
your sins. I'll restore you know, the good times back

601
00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:08.920
to you. I will heal your land. All will be forgiven.

602
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:11.799
And you were going to be right with me once again? Right?

603
00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:17.720
Yes, I want to amplify by the way, as we

604
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:21.680
say in my church, this will preach. I want to amplify.

605
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:26.359
It isn't just us as individuals. Yes, we as individuals

606
00:32:26.400 --> 00:32:30.720
need to repent, but the reward is to our land,

607
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:37.400
to our nation. Exactly, we as Christians do what we

608
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:41.440
should do, and if enough of us do what we

609
00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:47.240
should do, our whole country will prosper. This country's existence,

610
00:32:47.440 --> 00:32:52.279
I believe came about as one of the greatest gifts

611
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:56.279
that God has placed un planet Earth. And you say, oh,

612
00:32:56.720 --> 00:33:03.480
what are you talking about? We have slavery. America today

613
00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:10.720
is the country that provides more support for charity than

614
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:16.519
any other country on the planet. In fact, our charitable

615
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:22.880
giving exceeds that of the government of Japan, of the

616
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:28.319
Government of China, of the Government of England, of the

617
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:34.880
governments of the EU, all combined exact who sets the

618
00:33:35.039 --> 00:33:41.240
record for faith giving, It is Americans. And if this

619
00:33:41.559 --> 00:33:45.599
planet is going to be able to have it said

620
00:33:46.079 --> 00:33:51.720
that every woman, man and child hears about the greatest

621
00:33:51.880 --> 00:33:56.640
gift of all salvation, it's going to be because of

622
00:33:56.720 --> 00:33:58.680
what we do with our guests.

623
00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:02.480
Excited about that hundred percent. And this is the thing,

624
00:34:02.519 --> 00:34:06.039
this is why the people who are called by God's name,

625
00:34:06.759 --> 00:34:09.639
because God is moving. As Charles Finny would say, Horace,

626
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:13.159
that revival happens when it's most needed.

627
00:34:13.559 --> 00:34:14.440
And when you look.

628
00:34:14.360 --> 00:34:17.800
At our country right now, the chaos, the spiritual chaos

629
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:20.760
that it's in. I mean, we're so confused that we

630
00:34:20.880 --> 00:34:25.519
have what ninety different gender assignments, you know, and now

631
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:30.079
they're saying that your gender is assigned at birth. It's just,

632
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:33.840
I mean, it's so absurd where we are right now

633
00:34:33.880 --> 00:34:36.360
as a country, and we can't seem to solve the

634
00:34:36.400 --> 00:34:41.400
problems at this level. Those problems are solved in the heavenlies.

635
00:34:41.840 --> 00:34:44.960
That's why we have to elevate ourselves, get out of

636
00:34:45.000 --> 00:34:50.760
the morass of this confusion and this demonic controlled zip

637
00:34:50.800 --> 00:34:53.039
codes and land in which we live in right now,

638
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:57.159
temporarily thank God and reach out to God and say, God,

639
00:34:57.239 --> 00:35:00.440
we need your help, and you know, confess and say,

640
00:35:00.480 --> 00:35:03.079
look at we deserve this. We deserve where we are

641
00:35:03.159 --> 00:35:05.880
right now because we turned our back on you. And

642
00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:08.719
the Bible's real clear that once you turn your back

643
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:12.239
on God, you really render yourself stupid, don't you. Well.

644
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:16.840
Yes, In fact, he even says that He curses us

645
00:35:17.320 --> 00:35:21.679
by making it harder for us to see our way

646
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:27.119
towards him. Remember Pharaoh in the Book of Exodus, in

647
00:35:27.239 --> 00:35:31.519
the story he hardened Pharaoh's heart the Book of Acts,

648
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:34.119
excuse me, the Book of Romans says the same thing

649
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:38.599
can happen. And that's why I'm so excited about the revival,

650
00:35:39.000 --> 00:35:42.480
because what it means is that the Holy Spirit is

651
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:47.679
allowing people to have ministered to them, let them hear

652
00:35:47.960 --> 00:35:54.239
of the need to repent, to turn and hear God,

653
00:35:54.280 --> 00:35:57.199
and then able to be blessed by God.

654
00:35:57.920 --> 00:35:58.400
Exactly.

655
00:35:58.840 --> 00:35:59.079
Yeah.

656
00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:02.760
And my cautionary tale is to those who are maybe

657
00:36:02.760 --> 00:36:04.920
a little bit ahead of the curve right now and

658
00:36:04.960 --> 00:36:07.599
they are more in alignment with God, be prepared for

659
00:36:07.639 --> 00:36:10.400
these people coming in. Don't get upset because they took

660
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:13.159
your parking spot or your favorite spot in the fugue.

661
00:36:13.599 --> 00:36:16.760
You know, you know, be prepared because you never know

662
00:36:17.039 --> 00:36:19.119
what it's going to take. You know, the Bible says

663
00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:22.000
the word aptly spoken. You know, Horace I found sometimes

664
00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:26.360
it's just a smile aptly given to a fellow journer,

665
00:36:26.840 --> 00:36:30.039
you know, journeyer who is going through this. You know

666
00:36:30.119 --> 00:36:32.639
this this this life that we're going through.

667
00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:37.280
Yes, s yes, you know they're simple things. They're big things,

668
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:41.519
but they're simple things. Like recently, I was in an

669
00:36:41.639 --> 00:36:44.760
uber vehicle and the gentleman was talking about some of

670
00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:50.079
the challenges that he was facing. When our trip ended,

671
00:36:50.119 --> 00:36:54.119
I asked if he would agree to pray. He willingly

672
00:36:54.280 --> 00:36:59.159
did so and thanked me afterwards because he said he

673
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:03.400
had been one to hear. So we can all play

674
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:06.000
a role. But let's talk a little bit about the

675
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:07.559
Supreme Court too, because we.

676
00:37:08.760 --> 00:37:10.440
Got about a minute. We got about a minute left

677
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:12.400
before we go to break, so we'll kind of wrap

678
00:37:12.440 --> 00:37:15.679
this up just only as a sidebar. Horse. You know,

679
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:17.920
I love it when people want to pray for me,

680
00:37:18.000 --> 00:37:21.760
but me personally, don't don't give me fruitcake. I don't

681
00:37:21.800 --> 00:37:25.840
understand fruitcake. It's a mystery to me, and it's kind

682
00:37:25.840 --> 00:37:28.000
of like liver. You know, some people say, well, Bill,

683
00:37:28.079 --> 00:37:31.000
you've never really had my fruitcake or really good fruitcake.

684
00:37:31.639 --> 00:37:34.000
I don't know fruitcake fruitcake. I don't understand it.

685
00:37:35.039 --> 00:37:38.360
I had liver a couple of times at dinner when

686
00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:41.800
I was a kid, and I did not like liver.

687
00:37:42.679 --> 00:37:45.679
To to day, I actually don't like dinner. But I

688
00:37:45.840 --> 00:37:49.639
happened to comment that I didn't like it, and my

689
00:37:49.880 --> 00:37:55.000
father said to me, don't complain, yes, And I decided

690
00:37:55.039 --> 00:37:59.079
to complain anyway, And he told me, tell you what,

691
00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:02.920
why don't you go upstairs to your bedroom pack what

692
00:38:03.119 --> 00:38:08.400
he called my glad rags because I was leaving, and

693
00:38:09.320 --> 00:38:11.960
he told me, don't let the door hit you on

694
00:38:12.039 --> 00:38:15.239
the way out. I cut my way through that liver,

695
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:19.000
and it was awful. I put a smile on.

696
00:38:19.519 --> 00:38:22.960
Yep, exactly. We love We love our parents, all right.

697
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:24.519
We got to go to break. So let's go to break.

As promised, we're back with your Horace Cooper at the

779
00:42:35.559 --> 00:42:39.559
nationally recognized legal commentator continues with us right now, Horace,

780
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:42.079
you wanted to let's talk about Scotus. I mean a

781
00:42:42.079 --> 00:42:45.039
lot of I mean things are bubbling up here, and you,

782
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:51.639
as a recognized legal commentator, I'm sure, are like me, expecting,

783
00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:53.960
you know, some positive news to come out of the

784
00:42:54.000 --> 00:42:54.599
Supreme Court.

785
00:42:55.320 --> 00:42:58.280
Well, let's talk about where we are. Uh, isn't it?

786
00:42:58.320 --> 00:43:04.079
Trump's administration is about ninety three percent when I was

787
00:43:04.119 --> 00:43:08.719
in school, that was considered an a grade ninety three

788
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:15.440
percent success rate before the United States Supreme Court. Barack Obama,

789
00:43:16.039 --> 00:43:21.920
the so called constitutional scholar, was about forty five percent

790
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:25.559
before the Supreme Court, and he set the dubious record

791
00:43:25.880 --> 00:43:31.440
of having the most unanimous rulings against him of any

792
00:43:31.719 --> 00:43:37.280
president in the last fifty years. Well, guess what, mister

793
00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:45.239
Biden's record was worse than even Barack Obama, a long wrong,

794
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:49.440
wrong on so many issues. Now, he didn't get as

795
00:43:49.519 --> 00:43:55.679
many unanimous rulings against him because Supreme Court Justice Jackson,

796
00:43:56.000 --> 00:43:59.800
who was prepared apparently to take any crazy argument and

797
00:44:00.239 --> 00:44:02.519
in favor of it, so you couldn't get a unanimous

798
00:44:02.760 --> 00:44:06.480
But he kept losing, and he lost at a rate

799
00:44:06.840 --> 00:44:10.920
where his victories were about thirty two or thirty three

800
00:44:11.039 --> 00:44:16.280
percent of the time. If you were betting, it was

801
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:19.639
a good idea to say, let's find out where the

802
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:23.360
Biden administration is and assume I don't even know anything

803
00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:25.400
about the law, but I'm going to go the other.

804
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:29.840
Way exactly exactly. Well, that was I guess pretty much

805
00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.960
the theme of the Obama administration and the Democratic Party

806
00:44:33.039 --> 00:44:33.679
during that era.

807
00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:34.039
Right.

808
00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:38.920
Well, yeah, it was taking the law to places where

809
00:44:38.960 --> 00:44:45.880
it absolutely shouldn't. It was saying to Christian schools and organizations,

810
00:44:46.679 --> 00:44:51.719
you are going to be forced to hire people who

811
00:44:51.800 --> 00:44:58.840
reject your church's teachings. Our founders intended, they absolutely intended

812
00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:02.360
with the drafting of the First Amendment, to give a space,

813
00:45:03.679 --> 00:45:07.800
amount of space so that people of faith could operate

814
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:10.559
and live their lives. You know, earlier in the segment,

815
00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:14.480
I talked about how much charity there has been a

816
00:45:14.519 --> 00:45:19.760
worldwide that is faith based. Part of that comes because

817
00:45:19.800 --> 00:45:24.239
our charter, our constitution, our Bill of Rights specifically respects

818
00:45:24.280 --> 00:45:29.800
people of faith. Both mister Obama and mister Biden regularly

819
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:36.440
targeted people of faith to force them to undertake views

820
00:45:36.760 --> 00:45:41.760
and beliefs that they personally rejected. If you have an

821
00:45:41.760 --> 00:45:47.039
employee and that employee tells you I share your beliefs,

822
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:50.039
I will honor your beliefs, and then you find out

823
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:56.199
they're having affairs, they're engaging in slander, they're undertaking a

824
00:45:56.280 --> 00:46:01.079
whole host of behaviors. The Supreme Court has consistently said

825
00:46:01.840 --> 00:46:06.960
in a case like that, the organization can in fact

826
00:46:07.400 --> 00:46:12.079
terminate you for failing to repent. So this has really

827
00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:17.559
been the Roberts the Roberts Court, which many people are

828
00:46:17.920 --> 00:46:22.679
a bit critical of, has been a bulwark of First

829
00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:24.679
Amendment protections.

830
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:28.760
Well, you know, it makes you wonder Horace, and I

831
00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:31.000
don't know. I mean, maybe it's unfair to ask the question,

832
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:35.440
but it's one that begs asking, and that is Barack

833
00:46:35.480 --> 00:46:40.480
Obama presented himself as a as a Christian, I mean,

834
00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:45.159
Jeremiah Wright Christian, and here you got Joe Biden as

835
00:46:45.199 --> 00:46:49.960
a practicing Catholic. And you know, they were just they

836
00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:53.920
added to the confusion and really put us on this

837
00:46:54.039 --> 00:46:59.840
trajectory where so many Americans who bought into their personalities,

838
00:47:00.719 --> 00:47:03.360
you know, are kind of lost in the wilderness right now.

839
00:47:03.400 --> 00:47:05.119
If I can put it in those terms.

840
00:47:06.519 --> 00:47:10.159
A lot of what had been presented to the American

841
00:47:10.159 --> 00:47:15.440
people is quickly falling apart. People forget that Barack Obama,

842
00:47:15.559 --> 00:47:19.679
when he originally ran, said on a really fundamental issue

843
00:47:19.760 --> 00:47:23.559
of the day that he supported marriage between a man

844
00:47:23.639 --> 00:47:27.079
and a woman and didn't support redefining it. And yet

845
00:47:27.599 --> 00:47:34.239
his administration pushed and foisted gay marriage on America in

846
00:47:34.320 --> 00:47:38.760
a way that has had a very very consequential effect.

847
00:47:39.000 --> 00:47:43.239
And the truth is, this is what he'd always believed,

848
00:47:43.840 --> 00:47:46.360
but he had wanted us to believe something different. But

849
00:47:46.519 --> 00:47:50.440
let's take that off the table. What about the Affordable

850
00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:53.320
Care Act. If you lost your doctor, you can keep

851
00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:58.719
your doctor. If you like your insurance policy, you can

852
00:47:58.800 --> 00:48:03.880
keep your insurance policy. It turns out that was a lie.

853
00:48:04.559 --> 00:48:08.400
In fact, it was listed by the Associated Press as

854
00:48:08.480 --> 00:48:14.000
a Lie of the Year because of such consequential Look

855
00:48:14.039 --> 00:48:18.079
at what President Biden did with the ending of our

856
00:48:18.159 --> 00:48:24.920
presence in Afghanistan. It was an unmitigated nightmare that we

857
00:48:25.480 --> 00:48:31.159
today as a country are still suffering from. And yet

858
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:35.400
when he campaigned, he said he would be a champion

859
00:48:36.199 --> 00:48:41.280
a foreign policy. It would be great for America to

860
00:48:41.400 --> 00:48:44.599
have someone with his leadership and his experience on the

861
00:48:44.639 --> 00:48:48.719
Senate Foreign Relations Committee. That turned out to be a nightmare.

862
00:48:49.039 --> 00:48:52.039
My point in all that is to say, what we

863
00:48:52.159 --> 00:48:56.559
see when these people run and what they do after

864
00:48:56.599 --> 00:49:01.360
they get in office are completely and told totally different.

865
00:49:01.719 --> 00:49:07.360
Our president today has been working with our United States

866
00:49:07.400 --> 00:49:13.719
Constitution and pursuing the very principles that our founders intended,

867
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:18.280
rather than the deviations that his predecessors sought.

868
00:49:19.119 --> 00:49:23.719
And when you violate these, you know the wisdom of

869
00:49:23.719 --> 00:49:28.320
the Constitution. You put Americans in danger. You mentioned Afghan

870
00:49:29.039 --> 00:49:32.760
Afghanistan and the pulling out of Afghanistan. Of course many

871
00:49:32.840 --> 00:49:37.119
refugees came here into the country, and we had one

872
00:49:37.400 --> 00:49:42.119
Afghan refugee travel across the country and kill a National

873
00:49:42.159 --> 00:49:47.440
guards woman and severely injure another who We're getting, you know,

874
00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:50.400
some positive news that he's recovering, you know, thank god,

875
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:56.159
But sadly we lost a quality individual national Guards woman

876
00:49:56.920 --> 00:50:00.719
because of this. And this is the cost of violating

877
00:50:00.800 --> 00:50:06.880
our constitution and compromising the number one priority of the

878
00:50:06.960 --> 00:50:10.280
chief executive officer, the commander in chief of our country.

879
00:50:10.559 --> 00:50:14.119
When he violates our constitution, he puts America at risk.

880
00:50:14.960 --> 00:50:19.800
That's right. So I said at the time that we

881
00:50:21.320 --> 00:50:24.679
as a nation, and that was speaking directly to Congress,

882
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:29.000
need to change the law and challenge the Supreme Court's

883
00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:33.840
ruling back in the late nineteen seventies and again in

884
00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:39.920
the middle two thousands that if a person doesn't die,

885
00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:45.320
you can't have the death penalty for them. Here's my argument.

886
00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:48.039
First of all, the Founders never agree to that. But

887
00:50:48.239 --> 00:50:53.440
here's my argument. You do, as a killer, a shooter, attacker,

888
00:50:54.360 --> 00:51:00.880
everything you possibly can to murder someone, and science and

889
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:06.079
skilled physicians and even the strong prayer of others prevent

890
00:51:06.159 --> 00:51:09.960
that person from dying. You shouldn't escape the punishment for

891
00:51:10.119 --> 00:51:16.400
doing what you have done. Our founders said, any time

892
00:51:16.840 --> 00:51:22.159
you commit a felony, any felony, you were eligible for

893
00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:27.199
the death penalty. Now, the Kennedy ruling that came out

894
00:51:27.239 --> 00:51:31.880
in two thousand and five suggested that Louisiana couldn't punish

895
00:51:31.920 --> 00:51:39.679
a man for brutally raping three children? Is it or

896
00:51:40.280 --> 00:51:40.960
is it six?

897
00:51:41.800 --> 00:51:43.920
What's the number rape.

898
00:51:44.039 --> 00:51:47.480
Would have been allowed? And they said the ruling was, well,

899
00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:53.440
no one died. This child's innocence completely each one of

900
00:51:53.480 --> 00:51:59.000
those children completely destroyed. There ought to be a penalty.

901
00:51:59.199 --> 00:52:01.960
If you go up to a National guardsmen and you

902
00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:06.559
shoot him in the head, even if they live, you

903
00:52:07.119 --> 00:52:11.039
ought to pay. And I asked that that's what Kung

904
00:52:11.039 --> 00:52:15.400
Wor should do. Pass a new law allowing for these

905
00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:20.719
kinds of crimes to be death penaltly eligible, and if necessary,

906
00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:25.559
challenge the Supreme Court to overturn what I believe was

907
00:52:25.599 --> 00:52:26.840
an erroneous decision.

908
00:52:28.199 --> 00:52:33.119
If we're going to do something about dissuading offenders and lawbreakers, well,

909
00:52:33.159 --> 00:52:35.360
first of all, there needs to be consequences right now,

910
00:52:35.559 --> 00:52:38.440
right you know, we've got a break down in consequences,

911
00:52:38.440 --> 00:52:40.679
and this is why this crime is going. And then

912
00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:44.000
thank god, you've got Donald Trump coming in and you know,

913
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:47.679
trying to restore law in order. I mean, that is

914
00:52:47.719 --> 00:52:50.960
foundational to the Democratic Republic. Yet the Democrats are saying

915
00:52:51.000 --> 00:52:53.760
that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy when everything

916
00:52:53.800 --> 00:52:56.360
he's doing is to fortify democratic rule.

917
00:52:56.480 --> 00:53:03.239
Right, Well, that's exactly right. Campaign. I heard him say

918
00:53:03.360 --> 00:53:07.920
a couple times if you take fentanyl or if you

919
00:53:08.079 --> 00:53:13.039
take another deadly drug, heroin to an elementary school and

920
00:53:13.159 --> 00:53:17.440
hand it out, that alone ought to get you the

921
00:53:17.519 --> 00:53:20.960
death penalty, doesn't matter what ended up happening. And that's

922
00:53:20.960 --> 00:53:26.559
to your point, Bill Martinez. We need consequences. There have

923
00:53:26.760 --> 00:53:30.960
to be consequences. And now I get told, well, what

924
00:53:31.199 --> 00:53:35.440
about people that can't help themselves. Let me tell you something.

925
00:53:35.920 --> 00:53:40.280
If you can't help yourself and you can't stop yourself

926
00:53:40.840 --> 00:53:46.079
from brutally harming other people, that we need to get you,

927
00:53:46.920 --> 00:53:51.679
right exactly, that's not actually an excuse, that's not a protection.

928
00:53:52.199 --> 00:53:54.920
That's an argument for us to be even more aggressive.

929
00:53:55.320 --> 00:53:59.760
I believe if we had more accountability, there actually would

930
00:53:59.840 --> 00:54:06.639
be more people exercising good judgment about their behavior this

931
00:54:07.199 --> 00:54:10.639
time in accountability has harmed America.

932
00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:14.400
Historical evidence would would prove that out. What they're talking

933
00:54:14.599 --> 00:54:18.119
is in the realm of theory, and their theory falls

934
00:54:18.159 --> 00:54:21.880
flat because the data proves them wrong. Flat Outhors.

935
00:54:23.199 --> 00:54:28.480
Yeah, yeah, Look, we serve a god who believes in grace,

936
00:54:29.239 --> 00:54:33.519
who believes in giving people a second chance. But he

937
00:54:33.679 --> 00:54:38.800
has an ultimatum that in the end, if you are

938
00:54:38.840 --> 00:54:45.079
not with him, you're going to be punished in damnation forever.

939
00:54:45.880 --> 00:54:50.079
That's because he believes in accountability.

940
00:54:51.320 --> 00:54:53.639
It's why he gave the shord. That's why he gave

941
00:54:53.679 --> 00:54:57.400
the shord to government so that they would render justice.

942
00:54:57.480 --> 00:55:02.119
Right, that's right, that's exactly right. So if you want

943
00:55:02.159 --> 00:55:06.559
to choose to serve him, he welcomes it, yes, but

944
00:55:06.679 --> 00:55:12.079
if you don't, fare will be accountability. I don't understand

945
00:55:12.199 --> 00:55:15.639
any of these theories like you just described, where they

946
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:20.800
say just give them another chance, just ignore what they did.

947
00:55:21.079 --> 00:55:25.159
I mean, the mayor of New York City elect is

948
00:55:25.320 --> 00:55:31.639
hiring a convicted felon to advise him on how to

949
00:55:32.280 --> 00:55:40.119
set police interrogation and oversight policies. That's the exact wrong way.

950
00:55:40.559 --> 00:55:44.440
It will be open season. And as far as I'm concerned.

951
00:55:44.840 --> 00:55:47.000
I plan to be staying out of New York City

952
00:55:47.280 --> 00:55:48.239
while he's mayor.

953
00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:52.760
I'm right with you, Horace Cooper. He's a former constitutional

954
00:55:52.800 --> 00:55:56.159
law professor, recognized legal commentator, and author right here on

955
00:55:56.199 --> 00:55:59.239
Bill Martinez's life. Horace, thank you very much. Merry Christmas,

956
00:55:59.239 --> 00:55:59.920
my friend.

957
00:56:00.039 --> 00:56:01.159
Merry Christmas to you too.

958
00:56:02.079 --> 00:56:05.880
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

959
00:56:06.079 --> 00:56:09.679
You're spending more. You are making the same or less money.

960
00:56:10.079 --> 00:56:11.039
So what do you do?

961
00:56:11.519 --> 00:56:13.719
You rack up credit card debt. That's what you do.

962
00:56:14.199 --> 00:56:17.599
It's not your fault, it's the economy. And guess what

963
00:56:18.159 --> 00:56:20.280
If you rack up too much credit card debt, like

964
00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:23.000
some of us, you can't pay your bills, then the

965
00:56:23.079 --> 00:56:26.599
credit card companies, as nice as they are, start hounding

966
00:56:26.599 --> 00:56:30.440
you for money. Then you start your downward spiral. A

967
00:56:30.639 --> 00:56:32.639
smart thing for you to do is to call the

968
00:56:32.840 --> 00:56:36.239
Zero Debt They can help you consolidate all your credit

969
00:56:36.280 --> 00:56:40.360
card bills into one affordable payment. Millions of people have

970
00:56:40.440 --> 00:56:44.039
done it. It works to make you debt free. Make

971
00:56:44.119 --> 00:56:47.639
this free call right now. It costs you nothing to

972
00:56:47.719 --> 00:56:48.280
learn more.

973
00:56:48.519 --> 00:56:51.800
Eight hundred two eight four one three four nine. Eight

974
00:56:51.920 --> 00:56:55.559
hundred two eight four one three four nine eight hundred

975
00:56:55.639 --> 00:56:59.000
two eight four one three four nine. That's eight hundred

976
00:56:59.039 --> 00:57:06.960
two eight four thirteen forty nine.

977
00:57:07.679 --> 00:57:09.639
Getting America back on track.

978
00:57:10.000 --> 00:57:13.000
Bill Martinez live, Hey.

979
00:57:12.840 --> 00:57:14.800
Right now, six minutes after the top of the HOURD left,

980
00:57:14.840 --> 00:57:16.920
you could join us. I'm Bill Martinez. He's Mike Palace

981
00:57:16.960 --> 00:57:17.599
from ATR.

982
00:57:17.880 --> 00:57:20.039
Hey, Mike, good morning, Good morning. You'd be with you.

983
00:57:20.480 --> 00:57:23.119
Hey, you're all set for Christmas. All the shopping, everything's

984
00:57:23.159 --> 00:57:23.519
all done.

985
00:57:23.559 --> 00:57:26.480
Everybody's happy that most of the shopping down for the kids,

986
00:57:26.480 --> 00:57:27.719
watching more items left to get.

987
00:57:28.440 --> 00:57:31.400
Hey, it's all good. So there's peace in the universe.

988
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:33.800
I think that's what happens is when all that's done,

989
00:57:33.920 --> 00:57:37.559
we can really, you know it, kind of enjoyed the

990
00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:39.239
piece of the season once we're on the.

991
00:57:39.239 --> 00:57:42.239
Other side of that, right, Yeah, exactly what. You spend

992
00:57:42.239 --> 00:57:43.800
all the money and then you can relax.

993
00:57:43.719 --> 00:57:46.000
All right, until all of a sudden you get the

994
00:57:46.000 --> 00:57:49.199
invoices and the payment is due, and then you go, oh, okay,

995
00:57:49.880 --> 00:57:51.480
time to get back to work. I guess, you know,

996
00:57:51.559 --> 00:57:54.280
over time, whatever we can do. Hey, glad you can

997
00:57:54.360 --> 00:57:58.159
join us here. Mike is the tax policy director at

998
00:57:58.199 --> 00:58:02.239
America's for Tax Reform. I like what Grover Norquist said,

999
00:58:02.280 --> 00:58:06.000
your boss, he said, voters didn't give Republicans full control

1000
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:09.400
of Congress in the White House to expand Obamacare.

1001
00:58:09.480 --> 00:58:12.360
Right, That's exactly right. And thankfully we have the Trump

1002
00:58:12.400 --> 00:58:16.119
administration and the President just yesterday digging in again against

1003
00:58:16.159 --> 00:58:21.039
expanding these COVID era increased boosted subsidies on top of

1004
00:58:21.079 --> 00:58:25.079
the existing Obamacare subsidies the taxpayers paid for. But unfortunately,

1005
00:58:25.159 --> 00:58:29.039
we do have a handful of senators, Republican senators who

1006
00:58:29.039 --> 00:58:32.079
have introduced their own plans siding with Democrats, and a

1007
00:58:32.159 --> 00:58:35.639
number of House Republicans too. But hopefully Republicans are able

1008
00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:40.119
to hold the line here and prevent any expansion of Obamacare. Obviously,

1009
00:58:40.159 --> 00:58:42.559
I think my boss Grover is correct on this. No

1010
00:58:42.599 --> 00:58:46.760
one put Republicans in office to expand Obamacare. I think

1011
00:58:46.760 --> 00:58:49.599
they're completely misreading the room here. I think it would

1012
00:58:49.599 --> 00:58:52.840
be detrimental to the midterms, depressing our own side the

1013
00:58:52.840 --> 00:58:56.480
conservative base. It's just do what you were elected to do.

1014
00:58:56.840 --> 00:58:59.639
It's that simple, and this is the cleet opposite. Republicans

1015
00:58:59.639 --> 00:59:03.159
have always talked about repealing Obamacare, and what we're really

1016
00:59:03.199 --> 00:59:06.280
talking about is if these subsidies they're expanded for one year,

1017
00:59:06.360 --> 00:59:09.480
two years. In reality, that means they're never going away.

1018
00:59:09.760 --> 00:59:10.159
That's right.

1019
00:59:10.960 --> 00:59:13.519
Congress will come back and appeal it. This is about

1020
00:59:13.559 --> 00:59:16.360
a four hundred billion dollar expansion.

1021
00:59:15.960 --> 00:59:19.599
Right, Well, once again it's the Democrats lying to us.

1022
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:22.760
I mean, Obamacare was born out of a lie. It's

1023
00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:26.119
been kept on life support because of lies. And here

1024
00:59:26.159 --> 00:59:29.360
we are, and as you say, what really irritates me

1025
00:59:29.440 --> 00:59:32.400
about all this, particularly with the Republicans. They're one vote

1026
00:59:32.440 --> 00:59:36.639
away from repealing Obamacare, thank you very much, John McCain.

1027
00:59:36.679 --> 00:59:40.599
We get that, but it's like we've been dealing with this,

1028
00:59:40.719 --> 00:59:44.000
now what for about fifteen years, and now we're going

1029
00:59:44.039 --> 00:59:45.599
to get down to the eleventh hour, and you guys

1030
00:59:45.639 --> 00:59:47.280
are going to scramble. You and Grover and I talked

1031
00:59:47.280 --> 00:59:50.679
about this several weeks ago, Mike. They said the Republicans

1032
00:59:51.000 --> 00:59:54.079
allowed themselves to get backed in a corner. They thought

1033
00:59:54.440 --> 00:59:57.760
the Democrats were going to be exposed because they set

1034
00:59:57.760 --> 01:00:00.400
this up. This was all of their doing. Okay, but

1035
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:02.760
you know what, that's not with White's being reported by

1036
01:00:02.800 --> 01:00:05.440
the media. It's not the way the every man in

1037
01:00:05.480 --> 01:00:09.480
America is seeing this. They're seeing, you know, Republicans as

1038
01:00:09.519 --> 01:00:12.199
being the ogres. Look at they've got the power there

1039
01:00:12.199 --> 01:00:14.760
in the seat they have to make this happen. If

1040
01:00:14.760 --> 01:00:18.320
they lose the midterm, it's because of them, because they

1041
01:00:18.360 --> 01:00:21.320
fail to do this. Donald Trump has been jumping through hoops,

1042
01:00:21.639 --> 01:00:25.079
He's avoided bullets, you know, and all this stuff that

1043
01:00:25.079 --> 01:00:27.840
he's gone through on behalf of the American people, and

1044
01:00:27.880 --> 01:00:30.320
the rest of the party is like, you know, they're

1045
01:00:30.360 --> 01:00:31.280
sitting on the bench.

1046
01:00:31.920 --> 01:00:34.719
Well, you can be more right. The Median Democrats would

1047
01:00:34.760 --> 01:00:37.760
have you believe that it is now incumbent upon Republicans

1048
01:00:38.159 --> 01:00:42.519
to expand Obamacare, to save Obamacare that's only failing now

1049
01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:45.920
because of their temporary COVID policy that they lied to

1050
01:00:45.920 --> 01:00:49.159
the American people twice over saying that this was only

1051
01:00:49.599 --> 01:00:53.199
for emergency COVID policy. If that expires now, it is

1052
01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:56.679
somehow the fault of Republicans. We've only ever opposed Obamacare.

1053
01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:00.960
And what's really the big live being told here is

1054
01:01:01.000 --> 01:01:06.440
that healthcare costs, premiums for health care plans are going

1055
01:01:06.519 --> 01:01:10.320
up because Obamacare is failing. That is what is driving

1056
01:01:10.679 --> 01:01:13.400
two major lies with around Obamacare where you could keep

1057
01:01:13.400 --> 01:01:15.320
your doctor and that your premiums are going to go

1058
01:01:15.320 --> 01:01:18.480
down over two thousand dollars that never happen. Premiums are

1059
01:01:18.480 --> 01:01:22.599
on the rise, people are paying more for worse healthcare coverage.

1060
01:01:22.760 --> 01:01:25.320
And the frustration here too is if you have employer

1061
01:01:25.400 --> 01:01:28.119
provided healthcare again, here you are again being asked to

1062
01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:31.199
subsidize someone else's health care plans. It's never going to

1063
01:01:31.320 --> 01:01:34.519
end if they cave here. If you expand Obamacare, now

1064
01:01:34.880 --> 01:01:37.960
we continue the march to single payer. That's the only outcome.

1065
01:01:37.960 --> 01:01:39.239
We have to take a stand.

1066
01:01:39.519 --> 01:01:42.360
Right well, and no matter what happens, there's going to

1067
01:01:42.400 --> 01:01:45.239
be a little bit of a transition. So do you

1068
01:01:45.360 --> 01:01:49.639
transition into something worse than Obamacare or you begin to

1069
01:01:49.679 --> 01:01:52.320
tran And we know when you transition, you get the

1070
01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:55.199
what I call the grief to happiness ratio that comes

1071
01:01:55.239 --> 01:01:57.280
into play. And you got to look at hey, there's

1072
01:01:57.280 --> 01:01:58.840
going to be a little bit of investment of grief

1073
01:01:58.880 --> 01:02:02.599
no matter what. Okay, so but you need to measure that,

1074
01:02:02.920 --> 01:02:04.639
you know, kind of like what we've done with energy.

1075
01:02:05.079 --> 01:02:07.320
We went through a little bit, you know, early on

1076
01:02:07.519 --> 01:02:10.480
with some grief with Donald Trump when he first took over,

1077
01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:12.599
with the hope that he would come through. And now

1078
01:02:12.599 --> 01:02:14.679
here we are, what nine ten months down the road,

1079
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:18.159
and we're starting to be happy again. I mean particularly

1080
01:02:18.199 --> 01:02:20.480
in red states. You know, most of us are paying

1081
01:02:21.360 --> 01:02:24.199
you know around you know, maybe high twos. I think

1082
01:02:24.239 --> 01:02:26.880
there were some reports of seven states, six states paying

1083
01:02:26.960 --> 01:02:30.199
less than two dollars a gallon. Red states, by the way,

1084
01:02:30.199 --> 01:02:32.360
not Blue states, because Blue states got all these goofy

1085
01:02:32.400 --> 01:02:35.719
taxes and everything else. And plus they you know, bought

1086
01:02:35.760 --> 01:02:40.440
into Biden's you know, yellow brick road green scam program,

1087
01:02:40.800 --> 01:02:45.239
and so they that's an albatross on them, and so

1088
01:02:45.320 --> 01:02:48.880
it's hard for them to really pass on the savings

1089
01:02:49.079 --> 01:02:51.920
that are being realized by the majority of the country

1090
01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:52.440
right now.

1091
01:02:53.360 --> 01:02:55.360
Yeah, and if we look at this term affordability right

1092
01:02:55.360 --> 01:02:58.000
with what really just means the cost of living prices

1093
01:02:58.000 --> 01:03:00.639
and how much money are you making, it's a two sided, right.

1094
01:03:00.960 --> 01:03:03.360
We want to also be bringing prices down. We want

1095
01:03:03.360 --> 01:03:06.599
to be stopping inflation caused by the Bide administration twenty

1096
01:03:06.639 --> 01:03:10.000
two percent, highest inflation in four and a half decades

1097
01:03:10.039 --> 01:03:12.800
since the Jimmy administration. But the other side of this

1098
01:03:12.840 --> 01:03:15.440
that the Trump administration has been very active addressing is

1099
01:03:15.440 --> 01:03:19.440
the pro growth side, increasing people's real household wages. We

1100
01:03:19.440 --> 01:03:22.400
shouldn't forget we have all this great policy from the

1101
01:03:22.440 --> 01:03:25.639
one big beautiful bill that signature Trump tax cuts kicking

1102
01:03:25.679 --> 01:03:27.920
in both now the second half of this year, with

1103
01:03:28.000 --> 01:03:31.400
lots of new policy set to kick in twenty twenty six. Again,

1104
01:03:31.639 --> 01:03:34.199
we talked about this before. Twenty four hundred dollars. Is

1105
01:03:34.239 --> 01:03:36.519
the average household set to see an increase in the

1106
01:03:36.599 --> 01:03:39.519
real wages too? That is monumental, and we're going to

1107
01:03:39.559 --> 01:03:41.679
see that starting to kick in in early twenty twenty six.

1108
01:03:42.039 --> 01:03:44.840
We're going to have a record tax refund season, nearly

1109
01:03:44.840 --> 01:03:47.239
one thousand dollars higher. And that's not because you're giving

1110
01:03:47.280 --> 01:03:50.119
the government interest free loans like Democrats slide about and

1111
01:03:50.199 --> 01:03:53.039
the previous tax cuts. This is because of real pro

1112
01:03:53.079 --> 01:03:56.440
growth tax cuts letting you keep more of your own money.

1113
01:03:56.880 --> 01:04:00.000
That's how you address the affordability crisis in this country.

1114
01:04:00.119 --> 01:04:01.000
It's through growth.

1115
01:04:01.800 --> 01:04:04.079
So is anybody going to tell me that Kamala Harris

1116
01:04:04.079 --> 01:04:05.440
would have given us anything like this?

1117
01:04:06.559 --> 01:04:08.880
That's exactly right. We know what she campaigned on. She

1118
01:04:08.960 --> 01:04:11.480
campaigned on the second term of the Bide administration. She

1119
01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:14.599
campaigned on allowing all of your taxes to go up.

1120
01:04:14.840 --> 01:04:18.320
She campaigned on an anti growth agenda. Uh, and that's

1121
01:04:18.320 --> 01:04:21.920
what's really frustrating here. Because of course it's hard for people.

1122
01:04:22.320 --> 01:04:27.360
You know, you can't you can't gaslight people on the economy. Uh,

1123
01:04:27.639 --> 01:04:30.760
that's what they would have attempted to do, obviously, but

1124
01:04:30.800 --> 01:04:32.480
they would have continued all of the policy and of

1125
01:04:32.480 --> 01:04:34.800
course from the Bide administration that caused the problems to

1126
01:04:34.840 --> 01:04:35.280
begin with.

1127
01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:39.199
Well, because at the very core is their donor base.

1128
01:04:39.800 --> 01:04:43.000
They have to satisfy satisfy their donor base. You don't

1129
01:04:43.079 --> 01:04:46.559
raise over a billion dollars for a presidential campaign without

1130
01:04:46.599 --> 01:04:49.079
a strong donor base. And that donor base says, okay,

1131
01:04:49.119 --> 01:04:51.119
show me the money. I mean, that's what they did

1132
01:04:51.119 --> 01:04:55.599
with Hillary, right Hillary failed to deliver, and so believe me,

1133
01:04:55.639 --> 01:04:58.079
I still believe and I've talked to Grover about this

1134
01:04:58.440 --> 01:05:01.519
in terms of following the money. I mean all that stuff,

1135
01:05:01.679 --> 01:05:03.840
you know, the printing of money and the trillions of

1136
01:05:03.880 --> 01:05:08.199
dollars that was paid out so radically during the Biden years.

1137
01:05:08.280 --> 01:05:10.880
Right away was to pay back those donors that were

1138
01:05:10.960 --> 01:05:13.639
yelling and screaming that said, hey, look at we paid

1139
01:05:13.639 --> 01:05:16.079
all this money for Hillary Clinton. You guys didn't deliver.

1140
01:05:16.519 --> 01:05:19.400
You owe us now. And so they've been over backwards

1141
01:05:19.440 --> 01:05:21.639
because they had to keep them happy. And now here

1142
01:05:21.679 --> 01:05:24.880
they go in and they doubled down, put all this

1143
01:05:25.000 --> 01:05:27.440
money in the Kamala Harris and they're back at square

1144
01:05:27.480 --> 01:05:30.360
one again. So they're desperate to get in control of

1145
01:05:30.400 --> 01:05:32.800
the treasury. And the American people need to wise up

1146
01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:37.480
on this because you know, we went through some you know,

1147
01:05:37.519 --> 01:05:39.880
a lot of pain. You talk about grief, grief and

1148
01:05:39.960 --> 01:05:42.119
no happiness, because we had a lot of grief and

1149
01:05:42.199 --> 01:05:44.880
there was no prospect that we were going to turn

1150
01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:48.199
the corner other than you know, more Obamacare lies. You know,

1151
01:05:48.199 --> 01:05:51.639
whether it had to do with inflation, the Inflacement Reduction Act,

1152
01:05:52.039 --> 01:05:54.840
you know, all these things, shovel ready jobs. I mean,

1153
01:05:54.840 --> 01:05:58.480
there's so many Democratic policies that they just it's like

1154
01:05:58.760 --> 01:06:00.760
this is the Party of Life, and.

1155
01:06:00.760 --> 01:06:02.800
You talk about this progressive dinnerbase. We don't have to

1156
01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:05.440
speculate what they want. They're telling us what they want. Tooky,

1157
01:06:05.480 --> 01:06:07.679
what Mundani is doing in New York, that's what they

1158
01:06:07.719 --> 01:06:10.639
want to want. Government run grocery stores, free buses, which

1159
01:06:10.679 --> 01:06:13.199
just means you're paying for someone else's travel. They want

1160
01:06:13.280 --> 01:06:17.239
Jasmine Crockett in Texas and at the what do they want?

1161
01:06:17.239 --> 01:06:19.440
They want to throw more money into the pit of

1162
01:06:19.440 --> 01:06:22.639
Obamacare it's right across the board. The only answer Democrats

1163
01:06:22.639 --> 01:06:25.119
have is to keep throwing other people's money at the

1164
01:06:25.159 --> 01:06:27.639
problem that they created in the first place. Right, we

1165
01:06:27.639 --> 01:06:29.679
don't want government run grocery stores. We don't want to

1166
01:06:29.719 --> 01:06:31.480
be paying for someone else's health care. We want to

1167
01:06:31.519 --> 01:06:34.239

Hey, we're back with you right now. Nineteen minutes after

1258
01:11:17.840 --> 01:11:20.199
to the ri im Bill Martinez, he is Mike Pallas,

1259
01:11:20.520 --> 01:11:25.000
ATR's tax policy director. Mike, going back to Obamacare and

1260
01:11:25.039 --> 01:11:28.159
these subsidies, I'm trying to get to a net net

1261
01:11:28.239 --> 01:11:31.119
number as to how many people are going to be effective.

1262
01:11:31.119 --> 01:11:33.640
I mean, because you've got when you look at the spectrum,

1263
01:11:34.079 --> 01:11:35.479
I mean, you got a lot of people that are

1264
01:11:35.479 --> 01:11:39.039
getting subsidies that make over a half you know, half

1265
01:11:39.079 --> 01:11:43.119
million a year. So I mean, in the net net

1266
01:11:43.560 --> 01:11:49.640
consideration of these subsidies, who really needs to benefit, you know,

1267
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:52.640
and maybe for a short term to help mitigate some

1268
01:11:52.680 --> 01:11:55.119
of the grief that would go through because you know,

1269
01:11:55.199 --> 01:11:57.680
the Democrats, there's no way they're going to cooperate with

1270
01:11:57.760 --> 01:11:59.439
any kind of healthcare healthcare solution.

1271
01:12:00.199 --> 01:12:01.760
Well, and that's the part of the story that media

1272
01:12:01.760 --> 01:12:04.000
ignores because we're seeing plans put out there right now

1273
01:12:04.199 --> 01:12:07.720
where these subsidies are applicable for people seven hundred percent

1274
01:12:08.399 --> 01:12:11.600
above the federal poverty line. Susan Collins one of these

1275
01:12:11.640 --> 01:12:14.560
Republicans in the Senate who's introduced a plan to essentially

1276
01:12:14.640 --> 01:12:17.399
cave on the issue. Her phase out level starts at

1277
01:12:17.399 --> 01:12:20.880
two hundred thousand dollars. I assume that's what she now

1278
01:12:20.920 --> 01:12:23.800
considers to be in need of subsidy. A household erning

1279
01:12:23.880 --> 01:12:27.600
two hundred thousand dollars should not be getting subsidized by taxpayers.

1280
01:12:28.239 --> 01:12:30.920
But that's the discussion being had. We also had a

1281
01:12:31.079 --> 01:12:34.600
great report come out from the Government Accountability Office and

1282
01:12:34.680 --> 01:12:38.600
Internal Watchdog about the fraud of these Obamacare subsidies. What

1283
01:12:38.680 --> 01:12:42.000
they found was astonishing fifty eight thousand dead people on

1284
01:12:42.039 --> 01:12:43.199
the Obamacare rolls.

1285
01:12:44.199 --> 01:12:47.960
Why are we surprised? I mean, this is consistent whether

1286
01:12:48.000 --> 01:12:51.680
you talk about Obamacare, Medicare, social Security, on and on.

1287
01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:54.760
We see what's happening in Minnesota, all the theft and

1288
01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:58.439
fraud that's going on there, and it's all they're doing

1289
01:12:58.479 --> 01:13:01.479
is shrugging. It's like nobody really cares, are you flipping

1290
01:13:01.560 --> 01:13:03.920
kidding me? I mean, if it was their bank account

1291
01:13:03.960 --> 01:13:06.720
and their money, they'd be yelling and screaming, I haven't.

1292
01:13:06.800 --> 01:13:08.720
Well, Bill, you're right. And that's the frustration here is

1293
01:13:08.720 --> 01:13:11.479
the fraud is the point, because it's the insurance companies

1294
01:13:11.479 --> 01:13:13.920
who get these subsidies who also benefit from the fraud.

1295
01:13:14.319 --> 01:13:16.239
Right now, you have all these people, millions of people

1296
01:13:16.520 --> 01:13:19.359
with zero dollar premium payments, which means that the insurance

1297
01:13:19.399 --> 01:13:22.039
companies have no incentive to go check if that's an

1298
01:13:22.079 --> 01:13:25.279
actual real person because they're getting subsidized for someone who's

1299
01:13:25.439 --> 01:13:28.239
not essentially not really claiming the coverage for it, and

1300
01:13:28.279 --> 01:13:30.840
they're getting the subsidies for it. The Paragon Institute who

1301
01:13:30.880 --> 01:13:33.920
does great work, good healthcare thing tank as a means

1302
01:13:33.920 --> 01:13:37.840
that six point four million people are improperly rolled on Obamacare.

1303
01:13:38.159 --> 01:13:41.920
That's a twenty five percent increase over one year, just

1304
01:13:42.000 --> 01:13:46.479
because which they attribute alone to these increased COVID era

1305
01:13:46.520 --> 01:13:48.640
of subsidies that we're just talking about right now. They

1306
01:13:48.720 --> 01:13:51.279
to expire, so it is driving the cost. And if

1307
01:13:51.279 --> 01:13:54.720
you need any further element, the Washington Post editorial board

1308
01:13:55.279 --> 01:13:58.399
cited this GAO report and opposed Chuck Schumer's three year

1309
01:13:58.399 --> 01:14:01.920
extension subsidies because of the fraud. So publicans have the

1310
01:14:02.039 --> 01:14:06.680
Washington Post editorial board coming out against Democrats extension here,

1311
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:08.520
there's no reason they should be caving. They should not

1312
01:14:08.520 --> 01:14:10.760
be to the left of the Washington Post editorial board.

1313
01:14:11.039 --> 01:14:13.439
Well, Taya, you know, that's a lot of the story.

1314
01:14:13.560 --> 01:14:15.359
But the big part of the story that they're missing

1315
01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:18.640
out on, Mike, in my humble opinion, is the vig.

1316
01:14:19.319 --> 01:14:22.239
The vig that goes from the UH, you know, from

1317
01:14:22.319 --> 01:14:28.800
these pharmaceuticals and UH and the whole pharmaceutical industrial complex

1318
01:14:29.159 --> 01:14:33.239
that goes to politicians. I want to know that number.

1319
01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:36.840
I want it because because it's incentivized, and it's the

1320
01:14:36.880 --> 01:14:40.039
wheels on the bus are going round and round because

1321
01:14:40.079 --> 01:14:43.359
everybody is partaking in the fraud.

1322
01:14:44.479 --> 01:14:46.960
This is this is exactly the situation Democrats want right now.

1323
01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:49.880
They want millions of people dependent on government for their

1324
01:14:49.920 --> 01:14:53.119
healthcare solutions. They want these subsidies going to the insurance

1325
01:14:53.119 --> 01:14:55.479
companies so that when they're set to expire, they're going

1326
01:14:55.520 --> 01:14:59.479
to run ads bashing Republicans, encourging the subsidies to continue,

1327
01:14:59.640 --> 01:15:02.079
and they'll of a stake in the game. They'll run

1328
01:15:02.119 --> 01:15:05.079
as during campaigns, they'll contribute to Democrat politicians. This is

1329
01:15:05.119 --> 01:15:06.399
the entire Democrat system.

1330
01:15:06.640 --> 01:15:06.960
It's right.

1331
01:15:07.520 --> 01:15:11.000
You capture industries, you make them reliant on government, reliant

1332
01:15:11.039 --> 01:15:13.800
on Democrats in power for them to continue getting their

1333
01:15:13.840 --> 01:15:15.439
subsidies so that they can be operational.

1334
01:15:15.920 --> 01:15:20.199
You see everything that we said as Obamacare was coming

1335
01:15:20.279 --> 01:15:23.760
into play, including Joe Wilson when Obama was lying in

1336
01:15:23.800 --> 01:15:26.119
the State of the Union, right, and Joe Wilson just

1337
01:15:26.399 --> 01:15:29.760
out of he couldn't contain himself, you know, just you lie,

1338
01:15:29.960 --> 01:15:32.079
and oh my goodness, they wanted to censure him and

1339
01:15:32.079 --> 01:15:34.760
everything else. Well, the deal was, after everything is all

1340
01:15:34.800 --> 01:15:38.920
said and done, Joe Wilson was right. Obama lied, and

1341
01:15:38.960 --> 01:15:41.520
he lied to the American people. He lied to all

1342
01:15:41.520 --> 01:15:45.720
the elected officials, kept this scam going on, and this

1343
01:15:45.760 --> 01:15:49.359
has been a huge issue. So now and again, like

1344
01:15:49.399 --> 01:15:52.920
you said, what's the endgame. The endgame is single payer. Okay,

1345
01:15:53.039 --> 01:15:55.239
so now we look at who else is doing single payer.

1346
01:15:55.520 --> 01:15:57.359
Let's look at Canada, look at what's going on in

1347
01:15:57.399 --> 01:16:00.840
Europe and everything. And what do you get? You euthanasia?

1348
01:16:01.159 --> 01:16:04.279
You get people. Now we're in Canada. What do they

1349
01:16:04.279 --> 01:16:07.760
call it? A medical assistant Death Eastman or whatever it

1350
01:16:07.840 --> 01:16:12.479
is made. It's called idea medical assistant something like that.

1351
01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:16.159
But anyway, that's what Canada is employing right now. And

1352
01:16:16.600 --> 01:16:20.640
a lot of seniors are dying early and earlier in

1353
01:16:20.720 --> 01:16:22.640
life just because they said, hey, I'm tired and I

1354
01:16:22.640 --> 01:16:25.159
don't want to live anymore. And Canada says, hey, no problem,

1355
01:16:25.199 --> 01:16:27.520
we got we got a vaccine for that.

1356
01:16:27.720 --> 01:16:30.680
Our healthcare staffer has a great example about her grandparents

1357
01:16:30.680 --> 01:16:32.960
are German. Every time they come into the un United

1358
01:16:33.000 --> 01:16:36.039
States to visit, her grandfather gets his doctor visits and

1359
01:16:36.039 --> 01:16:38.239
gets his medical work done here because it takes too

1360
01:16:38.239 --> 01:16:40.479
long because you're in line in Germany exactly. And that's

1361
01:16:40.520 --> 01:16:42.319
what we've see in these European countries. That we've seen

1362
01:16:42.319 --> 01:16:45.960
in Canada, and that's what we've seen with Obamacare. The

1363
01:16:46.479 --> 01:16:48.119
huge part of this question that gets lost to is

1364
01:16:48.119 --> 01:16:51.239
we are getting worse healthcare coverage, you're paying more for less,

1365
01:16:51.439 --> 01:16:54.640
you're subsidizing someone else's plan with worse quality of care.

1366
01:16:55.600 --> 01:16:57.119
It's it's incredibly frustrating.

1367
01:16:57.720 --> 01:17:01.520
Again, if I had if I had control, and I

1368
01:17:01.520 --> 01:17:05.399
say controlled, or had the agreement of three hundred and

1369
01:17:05.479 --> 01:17:08.479
thirty million Americans to go find you a better health

1370
01:17:08.520 --> 01:17:11.720
care program, I'm going to leverage three hundred and thirty

1371
01:17:11.760 --> 01:17:14.880
million Americans and that's going to be our base of

1372
01:17:14.920 --> 01:17:18.359
which to negotiate with all the pharmaceuticals and the doctors.

1373
01:17:18.399 --> 01:17:23.000
I'll guarantee you we would find in short order a

1374
01:17:23.119 --> 01:17:27.319
world class, gold standard American sort of way of healthcare

1375
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:31.680
that would be golden. And you know this other negotiation

1376
01:17:31.840 --> 01:17:34.600
and stuff like that. There's too many fingers in the pie.

1377
01:17:34.720 --> 01:17:38.319
And they're not interested in delivering world class healthcare. They're

1378
01:17:38.359 --> 01:17:42.159
only interested in getting re elected and looking good to

1379
01:17:42.239 --> 01:17:45.399
the media and all that as opposed to providing world

1380
01:17:45.439 --> 01:17:49.640
class healthcare to people who need it. And that makes

1381
01:17:49.680 --> 01:17:51.680
sense is that you know, guys like you and I,

1382
01:17:51.720 --> 01:17:53.720
we don't have to go around and pay for pregnancy

1383
01:17:53.840 --> 01:17:56.359
because we don't get pregnant. Okay, like all that stupid

1384
01:17:56.359 --> 01:17:57.239
Obamacare stuff.

1385
01:17:57.279 --> 01:17:58.319
Let's set right.

1386
01:17:59.520 --> 01:18:01.239
That's exactly right, and that's what they're being forced to

1387
01:18:01.239 --> 01:18:03.920
pay for on these plans. Right now. We talk about

1388
01:18:04.039 --> 01:18:06.680
why can't young people just have disaster coverage where it's

1389
01:18:06.680 --> 01:18:11.119
just your twenty four years catastrophic care, Well, the reality

1390
01:18:11.159 --> 01:18:14.039
is because Democrats made that illegal under the Obamacare exchanges.

1391
01:18:14.079 --> 01:18:16.399
That's why you can't have that. We talk about that

1392
01:18:16.439 --> 01:18:19.199
we need massive deregulation. We need to be repealing Obamacare.

1393
01:18:19.399 --> 01:18:22.039
Republicans have fought took that stand in the past, and

1394
01:18:22.079 --> 01:18:24.760
we should also talk about the good healthcare things. Republicans

1395
01:18:24.800 --> 01:18:28.079
and the Trump administration have already done historic health savings

1396
01:18:28.119 --> 01:18:31.760
account expansion in this doing more right now that is

1397
01:18:31.840 --> 01:18:35.439
letting people invest save more of their own money, untaxed

1398
01:18:35.640 --> 01:18:38.000
for your health care coverage for your first payments, should

1399
01:18:38.000 --> 01:18:39.439
be able to use your HSA to pay your health

1400
01:18:39.479 --> 01:18:42.199
care premiums. These are all things Republicans are talking about.

1401
01:18:42.399 --> 01:18:46.920
They've made huge progress on association health care plans. These

1402
01:18:46.920 --> 01:18:49.760
are all things that the Republicans are putting forward right

1403
01:18:49.800 --> 01:18:52.119
now today. They're going to vote on a fifteen hundred

1404
01:18:52.119 --> 01:18:55.199
dollars expansion into HSAS that I anticipate every Democrat in

1405
01:18:55.239 --> 01:18:57.640
the Senate will vote against. Of course, they should be

1406
01:18:57.920 --> 01:19:01.279
forced to the public to explain why your money spent

1407
01:19:01.399 --> 01:19:03.960
on your healthcare should be taxed. We'll see the media

1408
01:19:04.000 --> 01:19:04.880
holes them accountable.

1409
01:19:05.199 --> 01:19:07.000
Well, I want them to explain why they were able

1410
01:19:07.039 --> 01:19:09.399
to get a carve out on Obamacare, and why they

1411
01:19:09.399 --> 01:19:13.000
have such stellar healthcare, and why can't we have the

1412
01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:14.359
same healthcare that they have.

1413
01:19:15.880 --> 01:19:17.960
That's exactly right. Why do they have special rules for

1414
01:19:18.000 --> 01:19:20.920
the Democrat lawmakers? Why don't they hold themselves accountable to

1415
01:19:20.920 --> 01:19:22.239
the own programs that they create.

1416
01:19:22.560 --> 01:19:24.119
Yeah, so just shut up. I don't want to hear

1417
01:19:24.159 --> 01:19:26.399
from you because you're not interested. You know, you're not

1418
01:19:26.439 --> 01:19:29.640
looking out for my best interest. But again, the other thing, too,

1419
01:19:29.840 --> 01:19:32.000
is to be able to negotiate across state lines.

1420
01:19:33.039 --> 01:19:33.680
Yeah, of course.

1421
01:19:33.720 --> 01:19:35.840
And for some reason Democrats always mocked this is a

1422
01:19:35.920 --> 01:19:38.119
very valid point. If you can buy auto insurance across

1423
01:19:38.119 --> 01:19:41.279
state lines, why can't you buy healthcare insurance. It's more competition,

1424
01:19:41.319 --> 01:19:43.800
it's going to bring prices down across the market. That's

1425
01:19:43.800 --> 01:19:46.760
something Republicans have also put forwards what President Trump has

1426
01:19:46.800 --> 01:19:50.119
campaigned on twice three times now, and that's something that

1427
01:19:50.159 --> 01:19:53.000
should should be I'd like to hear Democrats make the

1428
01:19:53.079 --> 01:19:54.720
argument for why that shouldn't be the case.

1429
01:19:55.199 --> 01:19:59.479
Watch it. I know it's a dream, but I would

1430
01:19:59.479 --> 01:20:02.199
hope that the Republicans would be willing to fall on

1431
01:20:02.239 --> 01:20:06.479
their sword for this, you know, a positive healthcare gold

1432
01:20:06.520 --> 01:20:10.840
standard program that would really be positive for all Americans,

1433
01:20:11.159 --> 01:20:13.000
you know, and touching on these things that you and

1434
01:20:13.000 --> 01:20:15.399
I have talked about, and to codify those the heck

1435
01:20:15.439 --> 01:20:17.600
with the Democrats, I'd leave them in the dust.

1436
01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:21.119
And if any the Republicans are misreading the room here,

1437
01:20:21.159 --> 01:20:23.920
because I think the real threat politically is depressing our

1438
01:20:23.960 --> 01:20:27.159
own side. If if a Republican majority in Congress is

1439
01:20:27.199 --> 01:20:29.359
going to expand Obamacare, then what use is having a

1440
01:20:29.399 --> 01:20:30.439
Republican majority?

1441
01:20:30.840 --> 01:20:33.479
Exactly? Well, and that's what That's what we opened up

1442
01:20:33.479 --> 01:20:37.199
this segment with. Right, Grover Norquist quote, voters didn't give

1443
01:20:37.239 --> 01:20:41.439
Republicans full control of Congress and the White House to

1444
01:20:41.479 --> 01:20:44.720
expand Obamacare. I mean, that says it all right there, right.

1445
01:20:44.840 --> 01:20:47.359
And I think there's good news here, right. Leave John

1446
01:20:47.479 --> 01:20:49.680
Thune in the Senate, Mike Johnson in the House and

1447
01:20:49.720 --> 01:20:51.800
Donald Trump have all held the line. There's been a

1448
01:20:51.800 --> 01:20:53.960
few people breaking ranks to deserve to have rocks thrown

1449
01:20:54.000 --> 01:20:56.439
at them over this who voters should be angry at.

1450
01:20:56.640 --> 01:20:59.600
But so far Republican leadership under President Trump has held

1451
01:20:59.640 --> 01:21:01.880
the line of this. I continue to urge them to

1452
01:21:01.880 --> 01:21:03.800
do so. I think that's how you deliver the win here,

1453
01:21:04.000 --> 01:21:06.479
and that's how you reform a broken system. You can't

1454
01:21:06.520 --> 01:21:09.319
just keep throwing more money at it without reform.

1455
01:21:09.279 --> 01:21:12.600
Without a doubt. He's the tax policy director with Americans

1456
01:21:12.600 --> 01:21:14.960
for Tax Reform. Mike Pallace has been our guest. Mike,

1457
01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:16.960
thank you very much. Take care of Merry Christmas, my friend,

1458
01:21:17.039 --> 01:21:18.039
Take care Merry Christmas.

1459
01:21:18.079 --> 01:21:18.479
You got it.

1460
01:21:19.279 --> 01:21:23.079
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

1461
01:21:23.279 --> 01:21:26.920
You're spending more you are making the same or less money.

1462
01:21:27.279 --> 01:21:30.159
So what do you do. You rack up credit card debt.

1463
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:34.000
That's what you do. It's not your fault, it's the economy.

1464
01:21:34.279 --> 01:21:36.760
And guess what if you rack up too much credit

1465
01:21:36.840 --> 01:21:39.479
card debt, like some of us, you can't pay your bills,

1466
01:21:39.840 --> 01:21:42.760
then the credit card companies, as nice as they are,

1467
01:21:42.960 --> 01:21:46.920
start hounding you for money. Then you start your downward spiral.

1468
01:21:47.560 --> 01:21:49.680

We're back with you America. I'm glad you could joined us.

1534
01:25:28.079 --> 01:25:32.159
Bill Martinez here with doctor Ted bar from movieguide dot Org.

1535
01:25:32.520 --> 01:25:34.199
Hey don't you love this time of year?

1536
01:25:34.920 --> 01:25:37.920
Well, I love the flag behind you, and I love Christmas.

1537
01:25:38.359 --> 01:25:40.359
And you know, there are all these people who are

1538
01:25:40.359 --> 01:25:45.039
wishing me happy holidays, and they don't realize that holidays

1539
01:25:45.199 --> 01:25:48.560
mean Holy Days. And if they realized it meant Holy

1540
01:25:48.640 --> 01:25:52.680
Days and they were atheists, they'd be upset by that. Now, Bill,

1541
01:25:52.960 --> 01:25:55.319
you know, I've got to be more of a positive

1542
01:25:55.359 --> 01:25:58.359
witness because I love Jesus so much. But I went

1543
01:25:58.439 --> 01:26:01.119
to one of the big drugs store chains because the

1544
01:26:01.239 --> 01:26:04.760
really good drug store shut down. And we know what's

1545
01:26:04.800 --> 01:26:07.399
happened with the government and drug stores and everything else.

1546
01:26:07.880 --> 01:26:09.399
The government just wiped them out.

1547
01:26:09.439 --> 01:26:12.079
But anyway, so I went in to them and they

1548
01:26:12.159 --> 01:26:15.279
didn't have any Christmas cards that had to do with Christmas.

1549
01:26:15.680 --> 01:26:18.439
It's all holidays. You don't want to talk about this,

1550
01:26:18.600 --> 01:26:22.239
but it's They had a bunch of LGBTQ cards, they

1551
01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:25.119
had a bunch of Hanukka cards, and they had a

1552
01:26:25.199 --> 01:26:28.560
bunch of holiday cards. So I went out and I said,

1553
01:26:28.560 --> 01:26:31.720
why don't you have Christmas cards? You know, all Mark

1554
01:26:31.840 --> 01:26:33.960
used to be a Christian Company. In fact, we know

1555
01:26:34.039 --> 01:26:36.560
the people, and so you know, I went through that

1556
01:26:37.079 --> 01:26:39.880
and they kept saying, well, you know, people don't like them.

1557
01:26:39.880 --> 01:26:43.239
But there's one hundred eighty percent of the American people

1558
01:26:43.279 --> 01:26:47.760
say that they're Christians, sixty percent say they believe Jesus's Lord,

1559
01:26:49.000 --> 01:26:51.640
about forty percent go to church once in a while.

1560
01:26:52.199 --> 01:26:54.760
About one hundred and sixteen million people go to church

1561
01:26:54.840 --> 01:26:59.479
every week. That's a tremendous audience that they're missing. As

1562
01:26:59.520 --> 01:27:01.479
I went back and I said, well, you've got to

1563
01:27:01.520 --> 01:27:05.439
tell I won't tell you the name of the pharmacy, CBS.

1564
01:27:05.640 --> 01:27:07.039
They've got to tell the people.

1565
01:27:07.600 --> 01:27:10.600
You've got to tell them as they've got to put

1566
01:27:10.720 --> 01:27:13.640
Christmas guards that are Christian, and they're going to lose me.

1567
01:27:13.800 --> 01:27:15.000
Are they all atheists?

1568
01:27:15.279 --> 01:27:17.399
And they got so upset when I said, are they

1569
01:27:17.479 --> 01:27:22.680
all atheists? But who wants to cut Jesus out of Christmas?

1570
01:27:23.000 --> 01:27:26.239
Who wants to turn it into Holidays which means Holy days?

1571
01:27:26.720 --> 01:27:30.439
Who doesn't understand what a mass is? You know, these

1572
01:27:30.439 --> 01:27:31.960
people are nuts anyway.

1573
01:27:32.000 --> 01:27:35.960
But these are the same people though, that have a

1574
01:27:36.119 --> 01:27:39.800
particular gender dysphoria. They go out on the street and

1575
01:27:39.880 --> 01:27:43.880
yell from the river to the sea, and here they

1576
01:27:43.880 --> 01:27:48.359
are yelling a mantra that would suicide them in two

1577
01:27:48.439 --> 01:27:50.520
seconds if they were to go to Palestine.

1578
01:27:51.119 --> 01:27:53.279
I know they're nuts, absolutely nuts.

1579
01:27:53.279 --> 01:27:55.720
But the other deal is interesting. It'll be interesting to

1580
01:27:55.720 --> 01:27:58.279
see and when you go back there in two weeks

1581
01:27:58.319 --> 01:28:02.159
and check and see how many LGBTQ Christmas cards they sold.

1582
01:28:03.359 --> 01:28:05.720
None, because it's only one percent of the population.

1583
01:28:06.000 --> 01:28:08.039
Well, I know, I mean, and the other group.

1584
01:28:07.880 --> 01:28:10.640
That they're selling, I mean, I'm glad they're selling them

1585
01:28:10.920 --> 01:28:12.680
is only you know, the hunka ones.

1586
01:28:13.000 --> 01:28:15.359
That's only a couple of percent. So none of those

1587
01:28:15.399 --> 01:28:17.880
are going to make them any money. And you know

1588
01:28:18.199 --> 01:28:19.720
Target is failing.

1589
01:28:19.319 --> 01:28:22.920
Now you know that Wall Street Journal asks why are

1590
01:28:22.920 --> 01:28:24.079
they failing you?

1591
01:28:24.119 --> 01:28:25.880
And I can say why they're failing.

1592
01:28:26.239 --> 01:28:29.439
But a lot of the costco is having trouble. These

1593
01:28:29.479 --> 01:28:32.880
companies are having trouble. They do not understand that we

1594
01:28:33.039 --> 01:28:36.319
are the audience and we want to go see. I've

1595
01:28:36.359 --> 01:28:39.720
convinced Hollywood to make more Christian movies. But I haven't

1596
01:28:39.720 --> 01:28:41.800
been able to convince the pharmacies.

1597
01:28:42.279 --> 01:28:44.560
Well it'll take some time. They'll catch up eventually, and

1598
01:28:44.560 --> 01:28:47.680
they'll find out, just like everybody else, that it's costly

1599
01:28:47.760 --> 01:28:52.199
to be stupid and you know, because really, I mean, you.

1600
01:28:52.159 --> 01:28:53.880
Don't mint words at all, do you.

1601
01:28:54.159 --> 01:28:57.720
Well, you know, my dad blessed. I love my father

1602
01:28:57.760 --> 01:29:00.479
and he passed away twelve years ago and I miss

1603
01:29:00.560 --> 01:29:03.720
him so much. And every time I say stupid, I

1604
01:29:04.159 --> 01:29:06.720
know that because that was like one of the worst

1605
01:29:06.760 --> 01:29:09.479
things you could ever say in our family. You could

1606
01:29:09.560 --> 01:29:10.199
not say help.

1607
01:29:10.399 --> 01:29:12.880
I tell all my kids not to say that, because

1608
01:29:12.920 --> 01:29:14.520
Jesus said, call no man rocket.

1609
01:29:14.600 --> 01:29:16.880
But I'm not going to tell you that because I

1610
01:29:17.000 --> 01:29:17.359
like the way.

1611
01:29:17.479 --> 01:29:21.279
Well, well, yeah, it's just I understand it. And I

1612
01:29:21.319 --> 01:29:23.520
guess part of me in telling you this is out

1613
01:29:23.600 --> 01:29:26.039
of reverence for my father in a very strange way.

1614
01:29:26.439 --> 01:29:32.199
I use that term very you know, not very often,

1615
01:29:32.399 --> 01:29:35.880
not very often. I thank you.

1616
01:29:35.960 --> 01:29:38.399
I do the same thing. And there are only two

1617
01:29:39.039 --> 01:29:42.000
sins in the Bible that are supposed that Jesus says

1618
01:29:42.000 --> 01:29:45.439
are unforgivable. One of them is denying the Holy Spirit. Yes,

1619
01:29:45.479 --> 01:29:49.560
And I went to a mainline cemetery, oh seminary, and

1620
01:29:49.720 --> 01:29:50.319
most of them.

1621
01:29:50.239 --> 01:29:52.159
Didn't believe in spirit.

1622
01:29:52.880 --> 01:29:54.760
And I brought it up to him at one point

1623
01:29:54.840 --> 01:29:57.159
and they went bonkers because they don't believe in the

1624
01:29:57.159 --> 01:30:01.119
Holy Spirit. And number two is calling man someone raka.

1625
01:30:02.199 --> 01:30:05.319
Now I think what Jesus is saying, and are we

1626
01:30:06.000 --> 01:30:07.600
You know you don't want to do this, But anyway,

1627
01:30:07.880 --> 01:30:13.119
what he's knowing at that time would not let the

1628
01:30:13.199 --> 01:30:17.039
children come and talk to them. The children were forbidden,

1629
01:30:17.560 --> 01:30:20.520
and he welcomed the children, and he welcomed the lame

1630
01:30:20.960 --> 01:30:24.439
and he welped it because I believe, and you know

1631
01:30:24.520 --> 01:30:28.520
they're countries now like Iceland that you automatically have to

1632
01:30:28.600 --> 01:30:34.000
abort what they used to call down syndrome children. God

1633
01:30:34.319 --> 01:30:37.119
made them so that we love them. When I was

1634
01:30:37.359 --> 01:30:40.239
in seminary, you had to go visit them, you had

1635
01:30:40.239 --> 01:30:42.920
to work with them, you had to do all these

1636
01:30:43.359 --> 01:30:48.000
trips to deal with you know, and they're wonderful, they're loving. Yeah,

1637
01:30:48.039 --> 01:30:51.560
they're a little difficult, but you know, God reread it

1638
01:30:51.640 --> 01:30:54.359
and it helps us be better people. Well you know

1639
01:30:54.479 --> 01:30:57.760
I'm not so great anyway, so it helps us to

1640
01:30:57.800 --> 01:30:58.239
be better.

1641
01:30:58.720 --> 01:31:02.279
No, there's no doubt we learn a lot from children

1642
01:31:02.840 --> 01:31:05.760
that otherwise people in our society would look at to

1643
01:31:05.800 --> 01:31:08.239
say that they're disabled. But you know, after you come

1644
01:31:08.279 --> 01:31:10.560
in contact with them and you're blessed by them, you

1645
01:31:10.680 --> 01:31:15.119
feel disabled because because there as you say, their love

1646
01:31:15.199 --> 01:31:20.560
is so pure ted I mean my experience, Oh my gosh.

1647
01:31:20.359 --> 01:31:23.119
I think you're so away I'm going to cry. That's it.

1648
01:31:23.760 --> 01:31:23.840
No.

1649
01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:26.039
But anyway, getting back to kind of what we were

1650
01:31:26.079 --> 01:31:30.319
talking about here, and I guess I've become more passionate

1651
01:31:30.359 --> 01:31:32.720
about it, and that is because I don't want people

1652
01:31:32.760 --> 01:31:34.880
to be ignorant. I don't want them to be the

1653
01:31:34.960 --> 01:31:37.880
less version of themselves that God meant for them to be.

1654
01:31:38.399 --> 01:31:40.760
And what's happening is we live in a society that

1655
01:31:40.800 --> 01:31:44.560
has homoginized all this thought to where we've deluded ourselves,

1656
01:31:44.720 --> 01:31:48.680
and in the process of it, we cannot discern good

1657
01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:52.119
from evil anymore. We're confused. And if you go in

1658
01:31:52.119 --> 01:31:55.000
and you say, oh, well, you know, removing the breast

1659
01:31:55.359 --> 01:31:58.920
of my young daughter because she's gender confused, that that's

1660
01:31:58.920 --> 01:32:02.359
not a problem and you have to accept that, and

1661
01:32:02.399 --> 01:32:04.319
you're going, what are you know, part of you is

1662
01:32:04.319 --> 01:32:06.279
screaming and going are you crazy or what?

1663
01:32:07.079 --> 01:32:10.520
And you know it was just as studies that came

1664
01:32:10.560 --> 01:32:12.960
out because my wife was on cameo for years. I

1665
01:32:12.960 --> 01:32:16.319
get the Journal of American Medical Association, The Kid's Brain.

1666
01:32:16.359 --> 01:32:18.439
Now I've been teaching this for years because I was

1667
01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:20.640
out of a department at Berkeley. Blah blah blah.

1668
01:32:20.840 --> 01:32:24.439
But anyway, kids' brains don't completely mature until they're thirty.

1669
01:32:24.960 --> 01:32:29.279
That means before they're thirty, you know, they well, it

1670
01:32:29.319 --> 01:32:31.520
means that they need to respect their elders like you

1671
01:32:31.600 --> 01:32:36.079
respect your father. It means before they're thirty, their decisions

1672
01:32:36.079 --> 01:32:38.279
are not as good as they could be. In fact,

1673
01:32:38.680 --> 01:32:41.720
there's a whole cognitive study done by a friend of

1674
01:32:41.760 --> 01:32:45.960
mine that the best soldiers are eighteen nineteen because they're

1675
01:32:46.000 --> 01:32:49.720
not mature enough to say this is really stupid running

1676
01:32:49.760 --> 01:32:54.800
into gunfire at this time. So why would you let

1677
01:32:54.880 --> 01:32:59.479
them make decisions when they're not prepared cognitively to make

1678
01:32:59.520 --> 01:33:00.000
those discs?

1679
01:33:00.600 --> 01:33:02.720
You've got to be crazy And there must.

1680
01:33:02.479 --> 01:33:04.520
Be something ted if we can take just a little

1681
01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:07.079
bit more time on this, because you've raised it, you know,

1682
01:33:07.119 --> 01:33:09.760
and I really appreciate this opportunity to talk about this,

1683
01:33:10.239 --> 01:33:12.960
is that there must be something about that age of

1684
01:33:13.039 --> 01:33:16.520
thirty where you have to make a decision to say,

1685
01:33:16.560 --> 01:33:20.279
am I going to follow God and gain wisdom as

1686
01:33:20.279 --> 01:33:22.760
a result of following God? Because the Bible says quite

1687
01:33:22.760 --> 01:33:25.359
clearly the beginning of wisdom is the fear of God

1688
01:33:25.640 --> 01:33:27.560
and maybe it takes for us to get to thirty

1689
01:33:27.720 --> 01:33:30.199
and making a bunch of stupid mistakes, then we start

1690
01:33:30.239 --> 01:33:32.479
fearing God enough to where then we wise up a

1691
01:33:32.520 --> 01:33:32.920
little bit.

1692
01:33:32.920 --> 01:33:33.479
What do you think?

1693
01:33:33.880 --> 01:33:37.000
Oh, it's exactly right. And I could go through the

1694
01:33:37.000 --> 01:33:40.720
stages of Gardener development, but I won't because Okay, we'll

1695
01:33:40.760 --> 01:33:41.640
never get to David.

1696
01:33:41.880 --> 01:33:44.199
Okay, well let's talk movies, because we want to talk

1697
01:33:44.199 --> 01:33:46.920
about a couple of movies, like David three.

1698
01:33:46.800 --> 01:33:48.880
Right, David one.

1699
01:33:49.600 --> 01:33:54.880
This is a brand new, beautiful version of David.

1700
01:33:54.960 --> 01:33:55.199
Now.

1701
01:33:55.560 --> 01:33:58.760
I know there was a version movie version years ago,

1702
01:33:58.880 --> 01:34:00.520
but this is an animated version.

1703
01:34:00.680 --> 01:34:03.960
It's absolutely terrific. And I've seen it and.

1704
01:34:05.479 --> 01:34:08.600
Angel Studios is releasing it and they're good friends of ours.

1705
01:34:08.680 --> 01:34:12.319
In fact, Robbie and another staff member in provo talking

1706
01:34:12.319 --> 01:34:16.239
to Angel too, you know, because they do. But it's

1707
01:34:16.279 --> 01:34:18.840
a great movie. I saw the movie. Now I have

1708
01:34:18.920 --> 01:34:22.439
to give you caution. You know, David's life had a

1709
01:34:22.439 --> 01:34:25.960
lot of violence in it. You didn't know that he

1710
01:34:26.119 --> 01:34:28.880
cut off Goliath said, did you know that?

1711
01:34:28.960 --> 01:34:31.960
But anyway, and he killed his best friend to get

1712
01:34:32.000 --> 01:34:32.319
his wife.

1713
01:34:32.359 --> 01:34:34.680
Yeah, and yeah, we're not going to talk about that.

1714
01:34:34.760 --> 01:34:37.560
But we didn't get there in the movie, but there's

1715
01:34:37.560 --> 01:34:40.920
some frightening moments, So I'd say it's for eight or

1716
01:34:41.000 --> 01:34:44.399
up because I do this whole cognitive development theory thing.

1717
01:34:44.960 --> 01:34:47.600
Kids are not prepared to see some of the violence

1718
01:34:47.640 --> 01:34:51.399
in it. But this is so well done as David

1719
01:34:51.880 --> 01:34:55.840
that it's just it's full of jeopardy, it's full of humor,

1720
01:34:55.920 --> 01:35:00.680
it's well orchestrated. It's an animated David. And I hate

1721
01:35:00.680 --> 01:35:03.439
to say it because John Irwin is a good friend.

1722
01:35:03.880 --> 01:35:07.920
It really rivals the house of David. It could be

1723
01:35:07.960 --> 01:35:08.680
as a movie.

1724
01:35:08.840 --> 01:35:11.119
It's probably the most biblically.

1725
01:35:10.720 --> 01:35:15.439
Sound Bible movie that I've seen in a long time.

1726
01:35:15.479 --> 01:35:16.640
And we watch them all.

1727
01:35:17.279 --> 01:35:20.640
Yeah, well, I'm glad to hear you say that, and

1728
01:35:21.119 --> 01:35:25.199
you know, because I know you hold your your accolades,

1729
01:35:26.199 --> 01:35:28.920
you know, genuinely, and so when you say that something

1730
01:35:29.000 --> 01:35:32.520
is this good, it really stands out. You mentioned Kevin

1731
01:35:32.560 --> 01:35:35.600
Costner earlier, and he's doing his first Christmas.

1732
01:35:35.880 --> 01:35:36.239
What's that.

1733
01:35:38.000 --> 01:35:42.439
Well, we have a mutual friend, who's his cameraman, who

1734
01:35:42.479 --> 01:35:46.960
did dances with wolves and things, who's his wife, used

1735
01:35:46.960 --> 01:35:49.359
to direct the plays that my son was in when

1736
01:35:49.640 --> 01:35:50.439
Hugh was in high.

1737
01:35:50.279 --> 01:35:50.760
School, etc.

1738
01:35:51.520 --> 01:35:55.279
So anyway, we've known each other for a while, you know,

1739
01:35:55.399 --> 01:35:59.600
casually that's because I'm in the entertainment, but he's you know,

1740
01:35:59.680 --> 01:36:03.600
he comes out, which is surprising because of his last

1741
01:36:03.640 --> 01:36:08.159
Western series was terrible, and he does a good job

1742
01:36:08.239 --> 01:36:11.479
of telling us about the first Christmas. Now it's a

1743
01:36:11.640 --> 01:36:15.840
three different elements, so it's not a great story.

1744
01:36:15.880 --> 01:36:19.640
It's not like David. It's not one seamless. It's Kevin

1745
01:36:19.760 --> 01:36:23.039
talking about him growing up in the church and playing

1746
01:36:23.079 --> 01:36:24.079
one of the wise Men.

1747
01:36:24.720 --> 01:36:26.680
I don't know who else would have played the wise

1748
01:36:26.720 --> 01:36:31.039
men because they weren't that one, but anyway, he was.

1749
01:36:30.720 --> 01:36:33.520
He was he was the wise cracker.

1750
01:36:34.079 --> 01:36:37.520
Man, and then and then then he talks to experts

1751
01:36:37.560 --> 01:36:41.359
about the Nativity, and then he goes and dramatizes. But

1752
01:36:41.439 --> 01:36:44.199
it's very well done and it's going to be on

1753
01:36:44.279 --> 01:36:48.359
ABC Television, so it's a major program and I'm hoping

1754
01:36:48.399 --> 01:36:51.560
that it does extremely well well.

1755
01:36:51.800 --> 01:36:54.880
As we wrap things up, you got some great suggestions for,

1756
01:36:55.800 --> 01:36:59.800
you know, for some holiday and Christmas movies that are

1757
01:37:00.199 --> 01:37:02.199
see right there at movieguide dot org.

1758
01:37:03.199 --> 01:37:05.600
Yes, and I'm also going to tell you my favorite

1759
01:37:06.079 --> 01:37:10.680
version of you know, the Scrooge story, the Christmas Carol

1760
01:37:11.319 --> 01:37:15.159
is the Muppet Christmas Carol, which is the most Muppet

1761
01:37:15.279 --> 01:37:18.720
Christmas Carol. It's the closest to what Charles Dickens wrote.

1762
01:37:18.960 --> 01:37:21.880
It's the most exciting, and it's most pro Jesus. So

1763
01:37:21.920 --> 01:37:24.760
if you want to see a really pro Jesus come

1764
01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:27.720
to Jesus, it's before Jim Henson.

1765
01:37:27.439 --> 01:37:28.680
Passed on and everything.

1766
01:37:28.880 --> 01:37:32.399
I knew Jim Henson a long time ago, and Bob Savage,

1767
01:37:32.439 --> 01:37:34.319
who was head of his company, was on my board

1768
01:37:34.319 --> 01:37:36.319
of reverence, and we used to go to lunch all

1769
01:37:36.359 --> 01:37:40.239
the time. And this Jim came to christ and when

1770
01:37:40.239 --> 01:37:43.199
he went to Black Rock Presbyterian Church, and so did

1771
01:37:43.199 --> 01:37:46.800
Bob Savage, and it was a I hate to say it,

1772
01:37:46.840 --> 01:37:48.600
because we just talked about the Holy Spirit.

1773
01:37:48.680 --> 01:37:51.399
Was a charismatic church. So if you want to see

1774
01:37:51.439 --> 01:37:52.359
a really.

1775
01:37:52.439 --> 01:37:54.680
Good why would you hate to say the.

1776
01:37:54.720 --> 01:37:58.079
Holy giving a sermon?

1777
01:37:58.479 --> 01:38:01.439
And I just had a pastor from John MacArthur's church

1778
01:38:01.520 --> 01:38:03.279
come to introduce me to his son who wants to

1779
01:38:03.279 --> 01:38:05.520
get in the business. And of course if you listen

1780
01:38:05.560 --> 01:38:09.800
to John MacArthur, well, I'm not gonna say that because

1781
01:38:09.800 --> 01:38:13.720
he's passed on to heaven and he may understand more

1782
01:38:13.720 --> 01:38:14.600
about it than we do.

1783
01:38:14.720 --> 01:38:17.279
And I'm sure he does now anyway.

1784
01:38:17.880 --> 01:38:21.159
Anyway, the Buppet Christmas Carol is great if you want

1785
01:38:21.159 --> 01:38:22.359
to watch something on TV.

1786
01:38:22.760 --> 01:38:25.319
It's the best version of the Christmas Girl.

1787
01:38:25.720 --> 01:38:29.039
Well I duly noted there. He is, Ladies and gentlemen,

1788
01:38:29.439 --> 01:38:32.840

you before Christmas.

How are you doing today?

1879

Hey, I'm done terrific. You know, it's the season for

1880
01:43:04.199 --> 01:43:09.800
Christmas movie binging. So what is on your can't miss list?

1881
01:43:10.520 --> 01:43:11.800
Well, I mean we can look at that a couple

1882
01:43:11.840 --> 01:43:14.399
different ways. We can talk about new things out in

1883
01:43:14.520 --> 01:43:18.079
theaters and streaming, and you know, we can circle back

1884
01:43:18.119 --> 01:43:21.000
and just talk about the perennial favorites that we returned

1885
01:43:21.039 --> 01:43:22.760
to over and over again as well.

1886
01:43:23.199 --> 01:43:25.119
Well, I'm in I'm into putting it in a blender.

1887
01:43:25.159 --> 01:43:25.760
That's fine.

1888
01:43:26.000 --> 01:43:30.239
Yeah, So new in theaters this week is an animated

1889
01:43:30.640 --> 01:43:36.640
musical biography Bible pick called David Yeah, and that comes

1890
01:43:36.680 --> 01:43:41.039
to us courtesy of Angels Studios. And if you have

1891
01:43:41.079 --> 01:43:42.760
seen the trailer, and there's been quite a bit of

1892
01:43:42.760 --> 01:43:44.720
marketing for this, there's a good chance that you have

1893
01:43:44.800 --> 01:43:49.520
seen a commercial or an ad for this animated kids movie.

1894
01:43:50.119 --> 01:43:53.760
This is a musical take on about the first half

1895
01:43:53.800 --> 01:43:56.800
of David's life, so it really deals with things right

1896
01:43:56.880 --> 01:44:00.439
up to after King Saul dies. The thing I like

1897
01:44:00.479 --> 01:44:04.000
about this movie is that it's rated PG, and it's

1898
01:44:05.439 --> 01:44:09.800
it's sanitized, I think in an appropriate way. Sometimes when

1899
01:44:09.880 --> 01:44:13.319
we say something sanitized, that's a criticism, But in this case,

1900
01:44:13.880 --> 01:44:16.159
I think what they've tried to do is take the

1901
01:44:16.279 --> 01:44:19.640
high points of David's story from you know, the Prophet

1902
01:44:19.680 --> 01:44:24.039
Samuel showing up to anoint him unexpectedly obviously, his battle

1903
01:44:24.079 --> 01:44:28.279
with Goliath, his friendship with Jonathan. So we get the

1904
01:44:28.279 --> 01:44:33.000
biblical story, but they go a little bit lighter on

1905
01:44:33.079 --> 01:44:37.199
the violence because David's story, frankly, is a violent one

1906
01:44:37.319 --> 01:44:39.079
practically from start to finish.

1907
01:44:39.159 --> 01:44:42.079
Right, right, Well, it's why God would not let him

1908
01:44:42.079 --> 01:44:42.800
build a temple.

1909
01:44:43.199 --> 01:44:48.359
Yeah, well that's exactly right. And so I think we

1910
01:44:48.439 --> 01:44:55.159
get a very approachable, cinematic, musical, animated take on David's life.

1911
01:44:55.279 --> 01:44:59.640
And there are a couple points that, in some relatively

1912
01:44:59.720 --> 01:45:05.119
min ways, they play a little bit not fast and loose.

1913
01:45:05.159 --> 01:45:08.880
They take some dramatic license with a couple of the

1914
01:45:08.960 --> 01:45:12.760
details in the story from first Samuel, but really, other

1915
01:45:12.840 --> 01:45:16.600
than that, there are no caveats here that make me say, oh,

1916
01:45:16.720 --> 01:45:19.520
you know, it would have been great. But they did this,

1917
01:45:20.279 --> 01:45:23.000
and I think it would be a great conversation starter.

1918
01:45:23.079 --> 01:45:26.840
We always talk Bill, you and I about how movies

1919
01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:31.560
and entertainment offer an opportunity to have a conversation about

1920
01:45:31.600 --> 01:45:34.159
worldview with our kids, And in this one, I think

1921
01:45:34.680 --> 01:45:37.560
you could say, Hey, we're going to read the story

1922
01:45:37.560 --> 01:45:39.760
of David and we're going to watch this movie, and

1923
01:45:39.800 --> 01:45:42.760
we're going to compare what scripture has to say with

1924
01:45:42.800 --> 01:45:44.600
what we're seeing on the screen, you know, sort of

1925
01:45:44.600 --> 01:45:48.319
teaching them even with things that are relatively friendly to

1926
01:45:48.359 --> 01:45:51.199
our faith, we still need to be thinking critically about

1927
01:45:51.239 --> 01:45:52.880
that even as we enjoy the stories.

1928
01:45:53.279 --> 01:45:55.800
Yeah, especially the challenging things, because no doubt what will

1929
01:45:55.840 --> 01:46:00.840
happen is you will always have some precocious young child

1930
01:46:01.159 --> 01:46:03.760
that will raise up the question and say, hey, what

1931
01:46:03.920 --> 01:46:05.680
about him killing his best friend?

1932
01:46:06.399 --> 01:46:06.760
Right?

1933
01:46:07.479 --> 01:46:07.680
Hey?

1934
01:46:08.479 --> 01:46:10.760
That right now? Right, We're going to circle back to

1935
01:46:10.800 --> 01:46:12.479
that in about ten years, right right.

1936
01:46:12.399 --> 01:46:16.840
Yeah, good question though, just book market and.

1937
01:46:16.760 --> 01:46:20.359
We'll retell you later on. Yeah, right right. Another one

1938
01:46:20.399 --> 01:46:23.039
that I think is a is kind of closer to

1939
01:46:23.720 --> 01:46:27.439
swing and maybe, if not a full miss, maybe a

1940
01:46:27.560 --> 01:46:32.399
foul tip or you know, maybe a single is the

1941
01:46:32.520 --> 01:46:37.439
dog movie Mirve. Yeah, and this is over on Prime Video.

1942
01:46:37.479 --> 01:46:43.560
It stars Zoe Deschanel and Charlie Cox as a couple

1943
01:46:44.279 --> 01:46:47.760
that they're having problems, and it's clear that they're living together,

1944
01:46:47.880 --> 01:46:53.479
they are now separating, and their poor terrier, MERV, he's

1945
01:46:53.520 --> 01:46:56.800
having a heck of a hard time and he turns

1946
01:46:56.840 --> 01:47:01.159
into a depressed pooch. And nobody makes a movie about

1947
01:47:01.159 --> 01:47:03.680
a sad dog and leaves the dog sad as a

1948
01:47:03.720 --> 01:47:06.239
general rule, unless we're talking Old Yeller, which is its

1949
01:47:06.239 --> 01:47:10.720
own special horrifica, which I'm still going to therapy. I know, right,

1950
01:47:10.760 --> 01:47:12.520
we're still in therapy for Old Yeller.

1951
01:47:13.960 --> 01:47:16.359
Thanks for bringing that up. Oh my right, go back.

1952
01:47:16.560 --> 01:47:18.880
Sorry, you need to call your therapist right now and

1953
01:47:19.000 --> 01:47:23.880
schedule another session. So MERV really helps them sort of

1954
01:47:23.920 --> 01:47:27.920
realize what matters. He serves as a canine catalyst to

1955
01:47:27.960 --> 01:47:31.439
help them reconnect. How'd you like that? Get my literation

1956
01:47:31.560 --> 01:47:36.800
on hard this morning? So that that is MERV. There

1957
01:47:36.960 --> 01:47:42.039
is some suggestive content, there's some language. There's enough here

1958
01:47:42.399 --> 01:47:45.960
that as a PG movie, I think these days it's

1959
01:47:46.039 --> 01:47:51.600
tempting to think PG, oh, you know, total pass right, Well,

1960
01:47:51.960 --> 01:47:54.840
there's enough content here that I would I would at

1961
01:47:54.920 --> 01:47:58.279
least tap the brakes before I watch this with younger kids,

1962
01:48:00.079 --> 01:48:04.079
and I think, just as these things go, everybody needs

1963
01:48:04.119 --> 01:48:06.760
a paycheck. And it's clear that that's true, even of

1964
01:48:06.880 --> 01:48:11.479
Hollywood folks like Zoe Deschanel and Charlie Cox. Is not

1965
01:48:11.560 --> 01:48:14.159
a great movie. It's just you know, of all the

1966
01:48:14.159 --> 01:48:15.319
movies made this year, this.

1967
01:48:15.359 --> 01:48:18.800
Is one of them. Well, this is like another you know,

1968
01:48:18.840 --> 01:48:23.199
deposit from Hollywood that is conditioning the mindset of young people,

1969
01:48:23.640 --> 01:48:27.680
all under the guise of PG PG rating. Like you said,

1970
01:48:27.720 --> 01:48:31.279
it normalizes things that I don't want to normalize some

1971
01:48:31.319 --> 01:48:32.079
of this stuff with kid.

1972
01:48:32.199 --> 01:48:33.800
Well, I mean, I think that we just have this

1973
01:48:33.880 --> 01:48:40.000
assumption in our culture now that you know, living together

1974
01:48:40.119 --> 01:48:45.520
is fine, Like there's no moral or ethical or spiritual

1975
01:48:45.560 --> 01:48:48.840
conversation to be had about that. And I think, you know,

1976
01:48:48.920 --> 01:48:52.680
even as debauched as like say the eighties were, even

1977
01:48:52.720 --> 01:48:56.479
in the eighties, you've still had pop songs that dealt

1978
01:48:56.560 --> 01:48:59.720
with the subject of sin. You know, I heard the

1979
01:48:59.760 --> 01:49:02.159
pet Chop Boys It's a Sin on the radio the

1980
01:49:02.159 --> 01:49:04.960
other day and it occurred to me, Man, when was

1981
01:49:05.000 --> 01:49:07.600
the last time you heard a pop band singing about

1982
01:49:07.600 --> 01:49:10.960
the concept of sin? Doesn't happen? Right?

1983
01:49:11.520 --> 01:49:14.720
And this and a couple of decades later, you got

1984
01:49:14.760 --> 01:49:17.479
the Dixie Chicks talking about bording the sin wagon.

1985
01:49:17.560 --> 01:49:23.720
Right, Oh those girls. Sorry, I'm not trying to be demeaning.

1986
01:49:25.239 --> 01:49:28.399
But they were talented, very talented in their own right

1987
01:49:28.520 --> 01:49:35.880
until they decided to subordinate their talented you know, political wagons.

1988
01:49:35.880 --> 01:49:40.159
But anyway, bless your hearts, all right. So okay, so

1989
01:49:40.199 --> 01:49:42.640
that's what's coming up at the movie be aware of

1990
01:49:43.359 --> 01:49:46.800
okay right now? But what you know, what are the

1991
01:49:46.840 --> 01:49:49.199
go to movies that you do during this time of season?

1992
01:49:49.199 --> 01:49:52.119
You're and your family, you know our go to's. And

1993
01:49:52.600 --> 01:49:54.520
I may take a little bit of heat on this.

1994
01:49:54.920 --> 01:50:01.319
Our Elf, the Christmas Chronicles and Doctor Seuss's The Grinch,

1995
01:50:01.479 --> 01:50:05.239
the most recent animated one. Now, Elf has a couple

1996
01:50:05.319 --> 01:50:09.399
things that are mildly suggestive and a little bit inappropriate.

1997
01:50:09.479 --> 01:50:13.079
There's a little bit of language. Holy cow, we love

1998
01:50:13.119 --> 01:50:15.760
that movie. I'm just gonna say, even with the plugged

1999
01:50:15.760 --> 01:50:20.439
in disclaimer in place, we just laugh and laugh and laugh. Right,

2000
01:50:20.840 --> 01:50:23.399
And there's so many lines from that movie if you're

2001
01:50:23.399 --> 01:50:27.000
not familiar with it. Will Ferrell plays a human boy

2002
01:50:27.560 --> 01:50:29.960
who ends up getting raised by elves at the North

2003
01:50:30.000 --> 01:50:33.680
Pole and ventures into New York City to find his

2004
01:50:33.880 --> 01:50:38.159
real dad played by James Kahn, who is an executive

2005
01:50:38.199 --> 01:50:41.520
at a book company, and he's just kind of a

2006
01:50:41.560 --> 01:50:44.640
foul human being. And so it's the redemption story of

2007
01:50:44.680 --> 01:50:48.199
the dad, while of course you know, having Christmas joy

2008
01:50:48.239 --> 01:50:51.000
and spirit and bringing Santa back. I mean, it's it's

2009
01:50:51.039 --> 01:50:54.880
a fun movie. And Will Ferrell has certainly done any

2010
01:50:54.960 --> 01:50:57.239
number of things that are off the rails over the years,

2011
01:50:57.279 --> 01:51:00.960
but this one is I think one of his best movies. Yeah.

2012
01:51:01.039 --> 01:51:02.920
For me, I'm still stuck in the classics.

2013
01:51:03.239 --> 01:51:05.399
Yeah, and then there's the classics, right mayor call thirty

2014
01:51:05.399 --> 01:51:06.199
fourth Street.

2015
01:51:06.079 --> 01:51:09.680
Yeah, you always go that, and you know, and it's

2016
01:51:09.680 --> 01:51:12.319
just again what you do, I mean, for me, just

2017
01:51:12.359 --> 01:51:14.399
like you said, you look for entertainment that you can

2018
01:51:14.439 --> 01:51:16.640
come away and you know, just have a respite and

2019
01:51:16.680 --> 01:51:20.479
feel good about it, be encouraged and be renewed by

2020
01:51:20.560 --> 01:51:22.800
in that. And you know, some of the wonderful life,

2021
01:51:22.920 --> 01:51:25.119
wonderful life, I mean, there's just there are a reason

2022
01:51:25.199 --> 01:51:27.640
they're always in everybody's Yeah, you know, you can say

2023
01:51:27.640 --> 01:51:32.159
top fifty, top twenty five, you know, and you know

2024
01:51:32.199 --> 01:51:35.960
they're just solid, solid stories, you know, from you know,

2025
01:51:36.399 --> 01:51:38.960
from what over fifty sixty years ago, great.

2026
01:51:38.880 --> 01:51:41.960
Yeah, no, that's exactly right. And and there's a long

2027
01:51:42.119 --> 01:51:46.439
list of movies that retell the story of jesus birth

2028
01:51:46.720 --> 01:51:50.920
as well. I don't know that I have a solid

2029
01:51:51.000 --> 01:51:53.439
favorite among them. One of the more recent ones was

2030
01:51:53.479 --> 01:51:57.840
an animated movie called The Star that had an all

2031
01:51:57.880 --> 01:52:01.880
star cast and a little bit of of an animal

2032
01:52:01.920 --> 01:52:04.960
bathroom humor. But I thought it tells the story of

2033
01:52:05.039 --> 01:52:07.720
Jesus from the perspective of the animals that we're traveling

2034
01:52:07.760 --> 01:52:10.520
with Joseph and Mary, and I thought it was really creative.

2035
01:52:10.640 --> 01:52:13.560
I really liked it. That would be one of the

2036
01:52:13.560 --> 01:52:14.680
more recent ones. Anyway.

2037
01:52:14.760 --> 01:52:16.680
Well, you know, it's interesting you say that that we're

2038
01:52:16.680 --> 01:52:20.600
seeing as an increase in religious religious theme movies totally.

2039
01:52:20.720 --> 01:52:22.720
You know, there's something going on. You know, God is

2040
01:52:22.800 --> 01:52:25.000
up to something again, He's always up to something, but

2041
01:52:25.399 --> 01:52:27.680
you know, and of course to hear from the media,

2042
01:52:28.880 --> 01:52:32.319
you know, they've become the pr firm for the devil

2043
01:52:32.520 --> 01:52:35.920
and evil right sadly, but that's where they are. And

2044
01:52:36.359 --> 01:52:39.359
I don't want people of faith to lose faith and

2045
01:52:39.439 --> 01:52:42.560
lose hope, especially in this advent season that we're in.

2046
01:52:43.159 --> 01:52:46.079
Is that look at God's still on the throne and

2047
01:52:46.399 --> 01:52:49.239
the Gift of Christmas is just around the corner, and

2048
01:52:50.159 --> 01:52:53.279
you know, and people instinctively are going against the tide.

2049
01:52:53.279 --> 01:52:56.000
I mean, Bible sales still up there. I mean they're

2050
01:52:56.000 --> 01:52:59.439
on an increase number one selling book consistently for decades now.

2051
01:53:00.079 --> 01:53:02.479
And so you got the Bible sales, You got churches

2052
01:53:02.479 --> 01:53:07.039
across the country reporting increase in attendance, people upset because

2053
01:53:07.960 --> 01:53:12.119
visitors are taking their parking spaces and their favorite pew spot.

2054
01:53:12.880 --> 01:53:14.159
You know, I think that's a good thing.

2055
01:53:14.640 --> 01:53:19.439
Yeah, yeah, And Hollywood is is kind of schizophrenic, if

2056
01:53:19.479 --> 01:53:22.199
I can use a mental health term. Like, on one hand,

2057
01:53:22.960 --> 01:53:25.520
so much about the worldview that is pumped out of

2058
01:53:25.520 --> 01:53:30.199
Hollywood as diametrically opposed to what we believe. And yet

2059
01:53:30.439 --> 01:53:34.720
at their core, Hollywood also has a weird conservatism because

2060
01:53:34.960 --> 01:53:39.800
you know, theoretically Disney recently notwithstanding, they're still interested in

2061
01:53:39.840 --> 01:53:43.279
the bottom line. And so I think that's the reason why,

2062
01:53:43.520 --> 01:53:45.880
you know, we have on Disney Plus right now, Kevin

2063
01:53:45.920 --> 01:53:51.720
Costner presents the first you know, and it's a pretty

2064
01:53:51.760 --> 01:53:56.039
solid dramatization of the birth of Christ. And for those

2065
01:53:56.359 --> 01:53:59.359
for whom Jesus wasn't enough, we also have Kevin Costner,

2066
01:53:59.399 --> 01:54:00.720
I mean of funny.

2067
01:54:00.560 --> 01:54:04.119
From from Yellowstone to the Birth of Jesus. Figure out.

2068
01:54:04.359 --> 01:54:08.880
And I think even with actors at that level, oftentimes

2069
01:54:08.920 --> 01:54:12.640
there may be more of a sympathy toward Christianity than

2070
01:54:12.680 --> 01:54:15.159
perhaps we would give them credit for. I wouldn't maybe

2071
01:54:15.319 --> 01:54:17.880
dad totally.

2072
01:54:18.239 --> 01:54:20.840
Yeah, I mean goes how ridiculous, Like you go to

2073
01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:23.319
the mall and you see Christmas and what do you

2074
01:54:23.359 --> 01:54:24.960
think people are? You know, what do you think it's

2075
01:54:25.000 --> 01:54:25.479
all about?

2076
01:54:25.600 --> 01:54:29.359
Right? Right? That's exactly right. So that one aired on

2077
01:54:29.399 --> 01:54:32.119
ABC the Kevin Costner won earlier this week, and it's

2078
01:54:32.159 --> 01:54:37.119
on Disney Plus now streaming. So it's another opportunity, I

2079
01:54:37.159 --> 01:54:40.760
think to explore the life of Christ. And maybe you

2080
01:54:40.920 --> 01:54:42.680
do that with your kids and then you read the

2081
01:54:42.720 --> 01:54:46.239
Christmas story and say, Okay, what did they embellish? What

2082
01:54:46.319 --> 01:54:49.159
did they help us to understand better? I think that's

2083
01:54:49.199 --> 01:54:52.880
the value of true Bible stories on the big screen

2084
01:54:53.159 --> 01:54:56.239
is maybe they help you to visualize something in a

2085
01:54:56.279 --> 01:54:58.319
way that you never thought about it before. And it's

2086
01:54:58.319 --> 01:55:00.760
not even is it right or is it wrong? It's like, oh,

2087
01:55:00.800 --> 01:55:02.560
I never thought about that, you know, And.

2088
01:55:02.479 --> 01:55:05.239
It's a great reason to get the family together, put

2089
01:55:05.239 --> 01:55:07.359
the cell phones down, everybody's putting the cell phones down,

2090
01:55:07.399 --> 01:55:08.199
they're taking a break.

2091
01:55:09.039 --> 01:55:09.239
You know.

2092
01:55:09.359 --> 01:55:13.399
Charlie Kirk's new book about the Sabbath. I think it's excellent.

2093
01:55:13.399 --> 01:55:18.920
There's some great advisements in it and disconnecting and you know,

2094
01:55:19.039 --> 01:55:21.520
and I appreciate where he he, you know, his journey

2095
01:55:21.520 --> 01:55:23.560
that took him to this point. And I've been trying

2096
01:55:23.600 --> 01:55:24.399
to do the same thing.

2097
01:55:24.800 --> 01:55:25.000
Yeah.

2098
01:55:25.359 --> 01:55:28.560
And in terms of staying away from electronics, to people

2099
01:55:28.600 --> 01:55:30.159
to go, hey, I can't get a hold of you

2100
01:55:30.199 --> 01:55:33.199
on Friday, there's a reason, you know, if you know me,

2101
01:55:33.760 --> 01:55:37.399
that's my sabbath. And I'm doing everything I can to

2102
01:55:37.520 --> 01:55:42.000
disconnect from all electronics and uh. And it's I would

2103
01:55:42.079 --> 01:55:44.720
I would encourage, I would encourage the faithful.

2104
01:55:45.199 --> 01:55:45.319
Uh.

2105
01:55:46.000 --> 01:55:47.960
You know, I just I'm just sharing it with you

2106
01:55:48.000 --> 01:55:49.960
because it's made a big difference in my life.

2107
01:55:50.079 --> 01:55:55.119
For what well, I think it conditions us ultimately just

2108
01:55:55.319 --> 01:55:58.319
to want to consume, Like my brain gets a little

2109
01:55:58.359 --> 01:56:00.880
hit of something and it doesn't even have to be bad,

2110
01:56:01.079 --> 01:56:04.479
you know. It's I've been following the Broncos this year

2111
01:56:04.520 --> 01:56:07.000
as a Colorado, you know, as a Denver Broncos, and

2112
01:56:08.560 --> 01:56:11.279
I checked the Broncos news every day and you know,

2113
01:56:11.319 --> 01:56:14.039
whether it's the stock market, whether you're a news hawk,

2114
01:56:14.319 --> 01:56:17.520
whether you're a culture hawk. You know, there's so much,

2115
01:56:18.119 --> 01:56:20.600
and we can just get conditioned to I just want

2116
01:56:20.640 --> 01:56:24.279
something else, you know, and and but we're just consuming. Right.

2117
01:56:24.399 --> 01:56:28.680
It's ultimately, I think often not a particularly redemptive use

2118
01:56:28.720 --> 01:56:31.439
of our time, even if there's nothing wrong with the

2119
01:56:31.520 --> 01:56:34.720
content itself, right, I just get in this mode. And

2120
01:56:34.760 --> 01:56:38.039
so the break that you're talking about enables us to

2121
01:56:38.039 --> 01:56:38.880
step back from that.

2122
01:56:39.680 --> 01:56:41.520
It's another gift from God.

2123
01:56:41.840 --> 01:56:44.199
Yes, absolutely enjoy it.

2124
01:56:44.199 --> 01:56:46.439
And rest in it and know that He has got

2125
01:56:47.359 --> 01:56:52.159
