• 0:02
  Speaker 1: We're gonna dive in deep. It is going to be
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: a good one. I do want to thank our sponsor

• 0:19
  Speaker 1: give you a little bit of a funny reward just
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: to get started. Over there, they've got a whole slew
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: of new features, including gold silver by of course, obviously
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you can do crypto and digital assets in there, and
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: you can also transfer in and start to gain some
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: assets as well.

  Speaker 1: So a lot happening over I Trust Capital. Check it
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: out is our link. Listen, we're gonna have John Deaton
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: on today and we're gonna break it down on where
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: is Clarity getting into the depth of what's going on
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: in DC. He of course is running for Senate. I
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: want to lead off the show though with a clip
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: and this will get into a little bit more detail
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: on some lummus and when we can expect the markup.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Take a look, when would you expect a mark app
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: of the Clarity Bill.
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: Well, now that we have we might have to consider
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: war funding. We are embroiled in how to deal with
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: the Save Act. I'm hoping we'll get to markup either
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: right before the Easter break or right after, and hopefully
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: I have a product out of the Senate Banking Committee before
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: the end of April. But the deeper it gets into
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: the year, Maria, the more challenging it's going to be
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: for us to get this across the finish line, which
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: is why I'm encouraging my Democrat colleagues to get us
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: their final product so we can move forward.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: That is not necessarily the lummas. I have been watching
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: for the last few weeks, so I'm getting a little
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: bit shaky on does this go through? What are we
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: going to have to make in terms of concessions to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: get this Clarity Act through?
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: If you look at the probability over on.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Poly market, I'll zoom in right there you can kind
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: of see over the past few days it has.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Been coming up.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: But this has been pretty much flat over the last week,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: up from its highest as sixty one percent in the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: course dropping down here a little bit. Of course, this
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: has all been built around what has been going on
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: in DC. A lot of shakeups out there, including David
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Sachs leaving, and we'll get into all that, but I
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: want to bring on John Deaton and have him come
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: into the show.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: How are you, John, I'm doing great, Paul, Thanks for
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: having me brother.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: You bet all right.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: So first, just let our audience know you're obviously running
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: for Senate.
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: Well, I'm running for US Senate again, my second time.
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: I ran against Elizabeth Warren. I was a no name candidate,
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: had never been in politics. As the first Republican to
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: get over forty percent in many years, I got one
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: point three five million people who voted for me, and
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: I decided to run again because Ed Marky, the other Senator,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: is as far left as you can get, even a
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: finn center people in Massachusetts. He's been in Congress since
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: nineteen seventy six, he's eighty years old, and I've just
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: got a lot more fresh ideas. If I get the
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: same amount of votes that I got in twenty twenty four,
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I win. We got polling that shows that I can
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: edge marquee out even in Massachusetts because of the independent voters,
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: and so I'm looking forward to making the case. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: think this race is going to be a lot more
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: competitive than people think.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Paul, Well, we're going to be looking forward to that. Obviously,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Clarity is on the front of our viewers and listeners' minds,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: and one of the things that seems to be holding
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: this up, of course, is what is happening over in Iran. However,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Trump is now signaling maybe a two to three week rundown.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: If the war ends in two weeks, in your opinion,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: would Clarity be back on the docket.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Do you feel like that would be the case.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so, And I think Senator Loomis is
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent right. By the way, Ed Marky, my opponent,
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: voted against the Genius Act, He's going to vot against Clarity.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: There's no doubt he's in the pocket of the big banks.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: And so Cinna Loomis is right. And I had the
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: pleasure of talking to her not too long ago. She's
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: working her butt off man to get this done, trust me,
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: and I can tell you, Paul that she's on point. Soon,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: especially comes summer, the midterms are going to consume everything
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: in this country, and so Iran. You know, it makes
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: it harder because you're trying to get funding for a
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: war that obviously the Democrats have been very critical of.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: And so if we could in that and just get
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: them focused on this Clarity Act, then I think it
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: has a good shot. But if we get into the
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: summer months, it's just probably not going to happen.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Not going to happen.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: We put out a poll right here, real reason Clarity
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Bill momentum has died, and even Burnie Moreno said, this
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: is you know, time is what kills deals. I think
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: it's still the infighting side, and you can kind of
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: see it right there. Everybody agrees at least this point
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: that we continue to see that. When you consider that
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and you look at the midterms, if we don't get
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: this done, like Senator Lummis was kind of alluding to,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: beyond that, you think this is dead. Now, let's go
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: post midterms. Now, if in fact it does die prior
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: to midterms. Once we're past midterms, what happens to a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: bill like Clarity? Is there a possible bipartisan solution?
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I don't think. So I have to give you my
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: honest assessment. I hate to be that negative, but here's
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: the reason. Let's say that the midterms go very bad
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: for Republicans and not only does the House flip, but
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: the United States Senate flip Paul. If that happens, guess
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: who the chairwoman of the Banking Committee is in the
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: United States Senate.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: It is Elizabeth Warren. We know, right, you know that
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: better than anyone.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: And you know what are the chances that it's going
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: to pass with her on the Senate Banking Committee? You
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: know post you know January probably slim to none. And
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: so you know that's why you have this tension, right,
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: you have this yield situation, and you have you know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: what is the best. Do we want regulation by enforcement
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: to end at the SEC and to avoid a Gainstler
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: two point zero or do we.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: Want you know, the yield?
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: And obviously that's a big, big issue for people.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: I side on the thought of.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Another Gary Ginstler coming in and engaging in regulation by
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: enforcement is just going to chase everything offshore. It's going
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: to die, Innovation will die potentially here.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: I hate the banks. Let me be blunt.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: I think the banks are one of the biggest enemies
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: of the American people, and we can go down to
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: two thousand and eight financial crisis proves it. But at
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: the same time, I think we need something. Charles Hoskinson,
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: he makes valid points about yield and about the de
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: facto being a security for young projects, and the burdensome
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: of getting out of purgatory at the SCC, and of
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: course the criticism of passive yield not going to stable
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: coins for exchanges. Those things are valid criticisms. But if
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: we go back to gainst their two point zero, I
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: think that's the worst case scenario.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Well, and if you look at it right now, it's
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: a fifty two percent chance that Democrats do take the
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Senate right there, we kind of see it, unless you,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: of course, win a seat right there. John, If you
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: win a seat right there, that's going to flip red.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Maybe the Republicans get lucky and could hold the Senate,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: but it would take races like yours to probably do it.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Eighty six percent chance right now that the Democrats take
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: the House, that right now is pretty much a foregone conclusion.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: The House is going to turn, So likelihood is the
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: Senate might be the only stave off here in terms
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: of being able to save something like clarity still before
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: this presidency ends, other than him basically losing both House
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: and Senate, which would change the administration's strategy. I think
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: in general, if Trump loses both House and Senate, what
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: do you think the administration, which has been a very
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: pro administration, will do to try to recover anything in
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: crypto or do you think it's game over?
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: You know, you got to hope that it's not game over,
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: because you do have some Democrats, certainly the younger Democrat crats,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Richie Torres, Roe Connell.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: They seem to want innovation.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: They understand that we can't chase it offshore, that we
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: have to win the race.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: But if we lose.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: Both the subpoenas, the impeachments, the investigations, that's all going
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: to take place, is going to consume the Congress. And
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: it's why I said, Paul, I know a lot of
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: people Listen, I'm not a delusional guy. You know that
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: no one in Washington is centering around thinking that the
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: Senate seat in Massachusetts ins at play. But I'm telling
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: you we got polling one that has Me edging Marky
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: out by two points. The other has me down by five,
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: with fifteen point fifteen percent still undecided. This race could
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: come down to the balance of the Senate, and we
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: have a real shot because I don't have a primary opponent.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Ed Markey is spending millions holding Seth Molten out, so
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: I get to take the case to the independence. I'm
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: only saying that because your point of this race, my
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: race could be very pivotal for the US Senate.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: Well, it could be.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: And I think when you look at the administration, they're
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: a little bit or it feels to me like things
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: are getting out of control. You got Patrick Witt kind
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: of going on the offensive right here, and he's kind
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: of hitting on the point you're talking about.
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: It is.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: I wonder what the future Democrat administration would look like
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: around DeFi protections. This is a big problem if we
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: get down that path around DeFi.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: And you also have to look.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: At the fact that David Sachs now stepping down very
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: interesting timing as we still don't have a strategic bitcoin reserve,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: we don't have clarity. All of this real boiling down
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: to what At some point, I think Trump would have
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: to call this a loss if he does not retain
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the Senate, at least on the Republican side going forward?
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Do you think Sacks going out? Do you feel like
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: we Why why would he not just go ahead and say, yeah,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: it's past my one thirty I just have to go
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: ahead and become an employee and continue this fight.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Why step away now?
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you know, I'm speculating. I question whether
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: or not the Iran War and maybe other disagreements with
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: the administration potentially could have I know that my assessment
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: of David Sachs was that he was not necessary a
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: proponent of the Iran war and striking how we did,
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: and so maybe that's the reason I'm speculating. Though certainly
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: you would hope that there would be a second appointment.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: I'm not sure if he can be appointed again or
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: if we appoint someone else. We have to win the
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: AI race, we have to win the blockchain WASTCE, we
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: have to win quantum computing, all of that. But AI
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: is probably the single biggest technological race that we must win.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: It isn't optional, and so that's why we can't have
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: fifty different states trying to handcuff the innovation. And we
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: need a federal oversight to be reviewing it. And so
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: one hundred percent there's a lot on the line, Man,
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: and I hope you take this act. I share Patrick Witz,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: and I think Brad Garland House's position that we can't
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: let perfection get in the way of the good. It
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: disturbs me, Paul, that passive yield doesn't go to stable
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: coins for consumers. It really irks my core. But at
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: the same time, you know perfection can't get in the
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: way of good.
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Man.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to go into a lightning round with
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: you because I want our viewers and listeners to understand
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: kind of your position and again the rules of this
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: lightning round. Because this is our first political lightning round,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: we'll be doing a bunch of these, I'm sure. Is
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: that just give us a yes, no or I mean,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: you can, of course back it up. But if you
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: don't have the answer yet, because you don't have enough information,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: or you're not ready to make a decision, that's fine too.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: We're cool.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: But we're going to lead off with the political candidate edition.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: My first question is the Genius Act laid the foundation
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: for the stable coin yield ban. In clarity regrets for
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: supporting this yes or.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: No no, regret it was necessary.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: I'll leave it it's lightning round, so I'll keep it there.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Yeap, all right, let's go here.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Banning passive stable coin yields is a form of bailouts.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: Yes, agree for sure?
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I know your position when it comes
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: to banks. If elected, you will teach at least twelve
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Democrats how to download a wallet and get some stable coins.
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, yes, I look forward.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Is it possible or is it impossible to do that?
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: It is kind of curious.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of it is generational. I would
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: skip the ones that are probably on dementia drugs and possible.
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: All right, you think it's possible. I like that, so
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: you get the right attitude going there. John Deaton would
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: publicly call out every Republican and banking committee who's siding
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: with banks on clarity.
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, I'll name them every day.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: All right, there you go. I like that. Keep them.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: You got to keep these people honest, John, That's the key.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: If people will just stay honest and tell us what's
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: going on. I mean, that's the part I hate. They
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: tell us one thing and then do something else. It's
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: just crazy. Would John Deaton side with push comes to
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: stuff on clarity? Would you side with DeFi advocates.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Or Ripple and Coinbase.
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: On clarity.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: That's a hard one. No, just on clarity. Yeah. To basically,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: when it push comes to stuff on clarity, is it
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: DeFi or with what Ripple and coinbase is looking for?
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: Well, I think Ripple on Coinbase on opposite sides. I thought,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: that's what that's why I hesitate.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's a good point. That might be a good position.
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: Where would you side there?
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Would you side with Ripple pro clarity, Coinbase anti or
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: the DeFi advocates saying hey save DeFi and self custody
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: all the above.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: What I would do is I would vote for Clarity,
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: but I would file a couple amendments to it.
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: Okay, you find function.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: Decentralization and and and other things, all.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Right, I like that.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Let's go over to this one right here, World Liberty
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: five USD one, Milania. This is one of the most corrupt,
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: uniquely massive scale and it should be put to an end.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: We had Warren Davidson on that actually brought that up
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: on our channel about two months ago, prior to Clarity
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: getting in.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Do you think this is an issue?
• 15:23
  Speaker 5: I think it is a huge issue.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: I think it's probably one of the biggest issues of
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: why crypto has become so partisan because of the perceived
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: conflicts of interest or grift or however you want to
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: characterize it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Biggest risk to crypto market right now, tariff chaos or
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: our friend Yahoo.
• 15:46
  Speaker 5: What was what was the first answer?
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Risk risk to crypto market? Tariff chaos, what's going on
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: in the markets, or what's happening? Of course, in Iran,
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I'd say I ran, right now, there you go. Let's
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: get into this one right How would you fix healthcare
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: of the problem right now? Increase acis, medicare for all.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Where do you stand on this?
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I have a huge I have a very specific plan.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: I've been talking to Mark Cuban, We've been imming each other.
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: The first step is we got to break up the
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: three vertically integrated insurance companies that control over ninety percent
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: of our healthcare system PAUW. That's not true capitalism, that's
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: crony capitalism, and when you consider the subsidies that they
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: get from federal tax dollars, it's corporate socialism. Break up
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: those three companies and create real competition.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: So this would be somewhat of a privatization. Is that
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: the angle it would take.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not medicare for all that that system is
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: never it's never going to happen, and you don't you
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: don't swap out an experiment with a completely government run system.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: You know, you take what's worked and keep that and
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: get rid of what's not working. We need full transparency.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: You and I can shop for a microwave all day
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: long if our microwave goes out, compare prices, but you
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: can't do it for drugs. You can't do it for
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: life saving drugs. We need expand telehealth transparency. Breakup to
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: three companies will have real competition, and we would drive
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: christ down, prices down immedia.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so many of these companies are vertically integrated. They
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: own all the way from the pharmacy to the clinic
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: to actually the drugs themselves. So you're exactly right. Well, listen,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: if you get through on the Senate run and you
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: want some airtime with Cuban on that topic, we'd love
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: to give you guys a talking point on that because
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: that's a big issue. I think that a lot of
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: voters are going to be very interested on.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: For sure, Listen, Paul tell I can tell you healthcare cost, housing,
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: cost and energy prices are three things, three biggest issues
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: for all voters.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: Not a single penny should be sent or continued to
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: be sent to Israel for the Iranian war efforts.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Where do you.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: Stand until we get full transparency. I'm gonna have to
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: agree with that.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: We've got to have transparency on what's happening.
• 18:26
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: My biggest criticism is that what you said, we're hearing
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: one thing and then we're hearing something else. You know,
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: we completely obliterated the nuclear operation in JUNI twenty twenty five,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: but no, we had to immediately strike them now because
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: they were weeks away from a nuclear bomb. You know,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: there's just so much uncertainty and confusion. We need transparency
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: and after that transparency, I could answer the question more educated.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: All Right, there you go.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I will never take bank lobby money or apac.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: They're never gonna offered me bank lobby money.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: But the answer is no.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I'm they're like this guy's in no fly zone exactly.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, let's put that back, yeah right there, Yes,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I will never do that.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: There we go.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: There needs to be a massive cut to ice. Do
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: you what do you think about this ice situation right now?
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, Ice, it's because you have sanctuary cities that
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: are not cooperating the way it used to be, Paul,
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: is that if an illegal migrant or anyone was arrested
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: at a local jail, that information would be shared, their fingerprints,
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: their data would be shared with the FBI and ICE,
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: and then ICE would go pick them up at the
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: jail cell. Sanctuary cities have eliminated all cooperation with ICE,
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: and then that's forced them to go into the home
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: depot or the community. And so we just got to
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: go back to common sense. Look for the bad guys,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: let's get the bad guys out, but let's not necessarily
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: create panic and fear in communities.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: So I think your position is right.
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: I think a lot of people would say, well, if
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: you cut ICE the funding, it would solve that problem.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Do you think that would solve the problem if funding
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: we don't.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: It's sort of like it's sort of like the argument,
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: well we defund the police because of issues. No, you
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: don't defund the police, you don't defund ICE. You just
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: you just create common sense in immigration politics. But again,
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Congress hasn't engaged in immigration reform policy in decades.
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: We need people to do their job. Well.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: Christy Nome is out. We're anticipating that Pam Bondi is
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: going to be next. But I want to know from you,
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: who do you think who would you fire first on
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: this administration?
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Trump or all or excuse me, Cash or Pam.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: Well, that's a coin toss.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: I would I would fire Cash to tell first, only
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: because I think he lied under oath when he said
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: that Epstein documents did not show any evidence of child
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: trafficking to anyone other than Epstein.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: That's a lie. It was under oath. He's got to go.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: But at the same time, I wouldn't be heartbroken if
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: Trump fired Pambondy either, Buddy.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: I think she's going for sure. We'll see how that goes.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Here's another one. What will most likely cause you to
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: lose this election? If you lose this one blaming Democrats
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: on the economy or aligned too closely with Trump.
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: In Massachusetts, it would be aligned too closely to Trump.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: He has a sixty five percent disapproval rating.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been watching the approval rating. It is not
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: looking good right now for the administration. After election day,
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Democrats sweep the med terms. Here's what happens. Crypto crashes
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: even more, or the market rallies after gridlock.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: What do you think.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: I would pick the market rallying, because everyone's going to
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: expect the opposite in the market usually does the opposite
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: the opposite?
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, listen, these have been good questions. We're going
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: to get you back on the show. Good luck in
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: your Senate race. I think a lot of people now understand.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: I want to bring that one thing up here again.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: This is what John is going for. If we get
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: and I say we, I say crypto, which will mean
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: that we have at least a fighting chance in the
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: sense of crypto, whether you want to call it Republican
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: or Democrats. But if he ends up winning a seat
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: in the Senate, it will at least we'll have somebody
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: that knows what crypto is and kick it up there
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: in Congress and actually start educating people a little bit
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: more about how this stuff works. But John, thank you
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: so much for coming in today. We appreciate it.
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: Thank you for having me. Paul appreciate you.
