Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: How's that old expression go, Well, if you can't beat them,
- 0:05Speaker 1: join them. Now you may have seen this big headline
- 0:07Speaker 1: should be actually bigger because it has eighty six percent
- 0:10Speaker 1: of the country support. Right now, is a big push
- 0:13Speaker 1: underway to ban insider stock trading because that's exactly what
- 0:17Speaker 1: it is, insider stock trading in Congress. Now, if you
- 0:23Speaker 1: paid attention to this stuff for any amount of time,
- 0:25Speaker 1: you can probably guess how this is going so far
- 0:28Speaker 1: more leaders are signing on to it. Sure is it
- 0:31Speaker 1: gonna go anywhere? Probably not? But what can you and
- 0:35Speaker 1: I and regular people do about it? Well? I give
- 0:38Speaker 1: her credit, Representative Anna Paulina Luna is making a valiant
- 0:42Speaker 1: effort or to get this done, to ban this, and
- 0:45Speaker 1: she's got some support. She's already getting shot down on this.
- 0:47Speaker 1: But here's the good news and here's the big takeaway.
- 0:51Speaker 1: It's a way we can all take advantage of it.
- 0:52Speaker 1: But also, you know what, for the first time, maybe ever,
- 0:57Speaker 1: it's really been talked talked about a lot because of
- 1:00Speaker 1: her efforts, but they always kind of put her on
- 1:01Speaker 1: these suicide missions that are going to go nowhere, but
- 1:04Speaker 1: still they put her. It's kind of like she was
- 1:05Speaker 1: the one that they put in charge of digging up
- 1:07Speaker 1: all the alien information went nowhere, you know, but give
- 1:11Speaker 1: her credit for trying at least. Anyway. We'll get into
- 1:13Speaker 1: that as well as we'll jump into the headlines for
- 1:15Speaker 1: a little bit too. This is something else you may
- 1:17Speaker 1: have seen a lot more this week. Poles are starting
- 1:20Speaker 1: to reflect it. But you know how poles go. You
- 1:22Speaker 1: can take them one way or the other. You can
- 1:24Speaker 1: manipulate the information anywhere you want in culture, just what
- 1:27Speaker 1: you see out there, just where you hear people talking
- 1:30Speaker 1: and videos online. There's a ton of support for these
- 1:33Speaker 1: ice officers, you know, whether or not you feel that
- 1:36Speaker 1: the policy is correct. A lot of support for these
- 1:39Speaker 1: ice officers in the streets in these cities where they're
- 1:42Speaker 1: deporting people left and right. A lot more than what
- 1:45Speaker 1: we saw before anyway. And I didn't expect to talk
- 1:48Speaker 1: about these Kennedy Center honors from this past weekend. Mainly
- 1:51Speaker 1: the headliners in this one was the rock band Kiss,
- 1:54Speaker 1: But so many the little individual stories have come from
- 1:56Speaker 1: this thing all the way through the week. And there's
- 2:00Speaker 1: a viral clip from Gene Simmons on the Red Carpet
- 2:02Speaker 1: going viral now that is absolutely great and he's talking
- 2:08Speaker 1: common sense about keeping your vote private and who you
- 2:11Speaker 1: vote for and not having to tell anybody. His pushback
- 2:15Speaker 1: in this question is fantastic. Anyway, we'll get back to
- 2:17Speaker 1: that too. Started the pod the live stream anyway, a
- 2:20Speaker 1: little late today because I was doing some research on
- 2:22Speaker 1: some of these insider stocks trades, just general glance, general
- 2:26Speaker 1: filling the blank information. It's gonna shock you how much.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Maybe even some of your favorite congressional members are making
- 2:33Speaker 1: its stocks. But anyway, that doesn't matter to you if
- 2:35Speaker 1: you're listening or watching later on on the replay all
- 2:38Speaker 1: your favorite platforms YouTube channel as well as well as
- 2:40Speaker 1: the audio podcast wherever you like to get those. Let's
- 2:43Speaker 1: get right to it. Let's give her some credit for
- 2:45Speaker 1: at least trying. It's a valiant effort. I don't know
- 2:48Speaker 1: why it is that, especially the GOP always puts this girl,
- 2:52Speaker 1: I'm sorry, this lady representative congress person in charge of
- 2:57Speaker 1: like these suicide missions that seem to go nowhere. It's
- 3:00Speaker 1: like it's always a valiant effort to kind of like
- 3:03Speaker 1: reflect the support of American people, but then gets shot
- 3:05Speaker 1: down almost immediately. But God, lover, she tries. Representative Anna
- 3:09Speaker 1: Paulina Luna, a very attractive lady from UH. I think
- 3:13Speaker 1: she's from Florida, isn't she Air Force veterans. She's done
- 3:15Speaker 1: a lot of good work. Well, now she's taking on
- 3:19Speaker 1: the monumental task of trying to cut down on insider
- 3:21Speaker 1: stock trading in Congress. We've all known this ever since
- 3:25Speaker 1: you were able to turn on the news as a
- 3:27Speaker 1: as a child or teenager, you've known that this is
- 3:30Speaker 1: going on. Maybe we didn't know it was this bad,
- 3:33Speaker 1: maybe right, But this is the first valiant effort to
- 3:37Speaker 1: try to take it on. This is from earlier on
- 3:39Speaker 1: in the month. She's been working on this a while.
- 3:41Speaker 1: This is when she first said what she's trying to
- 3:43Speaker 1: take on, and then we'll jump to how it's going
- 3:45Speaker 1: so far. Representative Luna take it away.
- 3:48Speaker 2: Okay, I brought numbers because numbers do not lie. So
- 3:50Speaker 2: when you hear members of both parties saying that they
- 3:52Speaker 2: have solutions for affordability, the housing crisis, pharmaceuticals, all this,
- 3:56Speaker 2: and yet you look at their personal investments, you'll know
- 3:58Speaker 2: that it's literally just political gamesmanship. And unless we actually
- 4:01Speaker 2: prevent insider trading, which is happy ending every single day
- 4:05Speaker 2: in Congress. If people are telling you otherwise they are
- 4:07Speaker 2: aligned to you, and really look into the regulations on
- 4:10Speaker 2: individual stock trading. I would say even make it similar
- 4:12Speaker 2: to the executive branch. We are literally going to never
- 4:15Speaker 2: be able to fix anything because you have people on
- 4:17Speaker 2: both sides that are controlled op for the three big ones, Blackrock, Vanguard,
- 4:21Speaker 2: and Big Pharma. Let's look these numbers real quick, Okay,
- 4:24Speaker 2: So in the House you have twenty five percent of
- 4:25Speaker 2: members and then the sendate thirty percent of members that
- 4:28Speaker 2: own personally totally about one hundred million dollars in stocks
- 4:31Speaker 2: in Big Pharma. Then you have Blackrock and Vanguard. In
- 4:34Speaker 2: Black Rock, that big spooky organization that in my opinion,
- 4:37Speaker 2: is contributing to the housing crisis in this country because
- 4:39Speaker 2: you're buying up all those single family homes. Yeah, you
- 4:42Speaker 2: have about thirteen members reported holding so but that's a
- 4:44Speaker 2: significant number, especially when you have only five hundred thirty
- 4:46Speaker 2: five members. Sorry, the video got cut off there, and.
- 4:49Speaker 1: Book a lot a lot of numbers, a lot of numbers,
- 4:52Speaker 1: and she's talking fast, but all of it relevant, all
- 4:54Speaker 1: of it important, And God Lover for trying to take
- 4:56Speaker 1: this on right. And like I said, this is like
- 4:58Speaker 1: an almost impossible mountain b climb to try to get
- 5:00Speaker 1: this done, and she's already facing opposition to them. We'll
- 5:03Speaker 1: get into what she's getting into here and the success
- 5:05Speaker 1: of the insider stock trading in Congress in just a second.
- 5:07Speaker 1: And by the way, every time she talks and does
- 5:09Speaker 1: a video or presents it on the House floor, she
- 5:11Speaker 1: makes it a point to accentuate the fact that it's
- 5:16Speaker 1: both sides. This is not a political party kind of thing,
- 5:19Speaker 1: all of them. We'll get into that as well. Now
- 5:20Speaker 1: let's jump that to earlier. Let's jump to how it's going.
- 5:23Speaker 1: This is just last night resistance.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Tell us more about what you think of Green's view
- 5:28Speaker 2: there and sort of what you have faced. Well. I
- 5:31Speaker 2: do think that she's accurate and that this legislation, specifically
- 5:34Speaker 2: on the insider trading stuff, is vehemently opposed by both parties. Look,
- 5:38Speaker 2: you just had Speaker, Speaker Leader Hakim Jeffries that said
- 5:41Speaker 2: recently that he doesn't want to support it if it
- 5:43Speaker 2: doesn't include the executive branch. But I would argue, look,
- 5:45Speaker 2: I'm open for negotiations. I'll even talk to the Speaker.
- 5:48Speaker 2: I'll talk to Hakim Jeffries about this if we had
- 5:50Speaker 2: the same standards as executive branch, insider trading would be happening.
- 5:54Speaker 2: But the fact is is that it's no question that
- 5:56Speaker 2: if you don't necessarily fall in line, and it happens
- 5:58Speaker 2: in both parties, that they will try to prevent your
- 6:01Speaker 2: legislation from coming to the floor. But it doesn't mean
- 6:03Speaker 2: that you give up. And so that's exactly why I
- 6:05Speaker 2: have this discharge petition, of which I will say, every
- 6:07Speaker 2: single member of Congress, if you've told your voters that
- 6:10Speaker 2: you actually fight for them, I don't care what party
- 6:12Speaker 2: you are, you need to support this because there's so
- 6:14Speaker 2: much happening here on the Hill, so much special interest money,
- 6:17Speaker 2: so much lobbing that goes into it, and it's not fair.
- 6:19Speaker 2: You can never genuinely advocate on behalf of the American people.
- 6:22Speaker 2: And so I will continue.
- 6:23Speaker 1: To do it, Okaye, she said there, it's both. Her
- 6:26Speaker 1: main point in that is she's getting resistance from both sides. Well,
- 6:29Speaker 1: what do you mean, Well, how can that be? Wait
- 6:31Speaker 1: a minute, how can she get resistance from her own party?
- 6:35Speaker 1: She's she's a Republican, right, so you'd think everybody on
- 6:38Speaker 1: her side, you know, her team over there in the
- 6:40Speaker 1: GOP side that would be supporting her in this effort. Right,
- 6:46Speaker 1: come on, now, we're grown ups, we know better than that.
- 6:50Speaker 1: In fact, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Boy, they jumped on
- 6:53Speaker 1: him right away, everybody, this is one of those bipartisan efforts.
- 6:57Speaker 1: They jumped on him right away and said, Mike, put
- 6:59Speaker 1: a stop to this right way, and don't let it happen.
- 7:01Speaker 1: This is from now. This is the first time he
- 7:03Speaker 1: spoke out out about it. In May. Speaker Mike Johnson said, ah, well,
- 7:08Speaker 1: it's not exactly uh illegal, it's uh. You gotta at
- 7:11Speaker 1: least you gotta at least let these congress people be
- 7:14Speaker 1: able to trade stocks. You gotta at least let him
- 7:17Speaker 1: feed their family. Counter argument is, and I have some sympathy,
- 7:19Speaker 1: look at least let them like engage in some stock
- 7:23Speaker 1: trading so that they can continue to, you know, take
- 7:27Speaker 1: care of their family. But at least take care of
- 7:30Speaker 1: their family. Huh, what are we talking about? You know,
- 7:33Speaker 1: we've all heard the famous stories. We're gonna to the
- 7:35Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi in a second. But did you ever stop
- 7:37Speaker 1: and ask why, how does Bernie Sanders, for example, how
- 7:41Speaker 1: does somebody like that he's never created a job he's
- 7:44Speaker 1: never had really a job. He's just you know, serving.
- 7:47Speaker 1: I'm a public servant. How does it become a multi multi,
- 7:51Speaker 1: multi multi millionaire over the course of his political career,
- 7:54Speaker 1: which is supposedly, like Mike Johnson says, they're just serving
- 7:58Speaker 1: the American people. Let him trade stocks. Now, they'll always
- 8:01Speaker 1: tell you it's because he wrote books and he did
- 8:03Speaker 1: speaking towards. Now, you don't make that kind of money
- 8:05Speaker 1: on books and speaking towards. He make it from stock trading. Now,
- 8:08Speaker 1: why is it even an issue. Let's go back to
- 8:10Speaker 1: basics here. Because they have information before we do, and
- 8:13Speaker 1: they're able to act on it before we do. That's
- 8:16Speaker 1: how Well, what kind of numbers we're talking about here? Well,
- 8:18Speaker 1: you know, what's the success rate the American stock investor? You, me,
- 8:22Speaker 1: and everybody else? And this includes like your four h
- 8:23Speaker 1: one K plan we make about m on a return
- 8:27Speaker 1: six percent that's pretty good on average. Overall members of Congress,
- 8:31Speaker 1: this is documented eighteen percent return in the stocks over
- 8:34Speaker 1: the last ten years. That's three times better than what
- 8:37Speaker 1: you and I can do. You think that's a problem, yep,
- 8:42Speaker 1: crazy to say. Now, over one hundred and twenty thousand
- 8:45Speaker 1: everyday Americans are using something very special to try to
- 8:48Speaker 1: track this and take advantage of it. And I did
- 8:52Speaker 1: a little and did a little research in first of all,
- 8:54Speaker 1: who some of the best so far this year stock
- 8:58Speaker 1: traders in Congress are Nancy Pelosi, that's number one. Dan Crenshaw, Republican.
- 9:05Speaker 1: Remember we said this isn't the this isn't a left
- 9:07Speaker 1: right Republican Democrat thing. Senator Ron Wyden. These are the
- 9:12Speaker 1: top three performers as far as stocks go. Okay, well,
- 9:17Speaker 1: what can you do about it? She's facing an uphill battle.
- 9:20Speaker 1: We just heard that. So if you can't beat them,
- 9:22Speaker 1: join them. So naturally, Americans, being industrious and genius, they
- 9:26Speaker 1: took advantage of this. There is an app called and
- 9:30Speaker 1: online you can follow the account. It's called the Nancy
- 9:33Speaker 1: Pelosi stock Trader that you can follow because they're public companies,
- 9:38Speaker 1: you can follow the stock trades that she's made. And
- 9:40Speaker 1: people are actually taking advantage of it and making big,
- 9:43Speaker 1: big money. Why would it be Nancy Pelosi. Well, we
- 9:46Speaker 1: just said there that she was number one as far
- 9:51Speaker 1: as the top performer, and that's for years on end
- 9:55Speaker 1: now because of how much money she's made, So that
- 9:59Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi Trader. But there's another one. Join Autopilot has
- 10:04Speaker 1: their local politicians basically pick stocks for you where you
- 10:07Speaker 1: can follow what they're actually doing. Okay, one hundred and
- 10:12Speaker 1: twenty thousand everyday investors now are profiting by following Nancy
- 10:15Speaker 1: Pelosi stock trades. There's an example of being smart about it.
- 10:20Speaker 1: I don't know if we'll ever tackle this problem. I
- 10:22Speaker 1: don't know because there's too much money to be made,
- 10:24Speaker 1: and that's both sides. There's too many people making money
- 10:26Speaker 1: on it. There's too many people have literally vested interests
- 10:31Speaker 1: in making sure that they can still inside trade inside
- 10:35Speaker 1: the halls of Congress because they get this information first.
- 10:38Speaker 1: But tips like that Nancy Pelosi stock trader autopilot that
- 10:43Speaker 1: actually follow their stock trades and so that we can
- 10:45Speaker 1: do the same thing, that's ingenius. I don't know. It's
- 10:49Speaker 1: up to you. Don't look to me for financial advice,
- 10:51Speaker 1: but it would kind of make sense that if you
- 10:53Speaker 1: knew that members of Congress are making this kind of
- 10:56Speaker 1: money and having this kind of a success rate three
- 10:58Speaker 1: times better than what you and I are doing, going
- 11:01Speaker 1: to make sense that you could follow them until maybe
- 11:03Speaker 1: some day down the road they make these apps illegal
- 11:06Speaker 1: but you know who the heck knows. Uh, let's give
- 11:10Speaker 1: Anna Paulina Luna credit though, for taking on this pedal.
- 11:12Speaker 1: I hope she wins, but it's gonna be it's gonna
- 11:14Speaker 1: be a long, long fight, all right. So jump into
- 11:17Speaker 1: some headlines. Now, this is actually one of those cultural
- 11:19Speaker 1: things you're starting to see. So who knows Poles You
- 11:22Speaker 1: can manipulate numbers and stats from a pole left and
- 11:25Speaker 1: right any way you possibly want to right, take that
- 11:27Speaker 1: for what it's worth, but you can't really deny when
- 11:31Speaker 1: you spend any time on social media at all, you know,
- 11:33Speaker 1: we at lunch at work and whatever. At a break
- 11:35Speaker 1: on your after dinner time and you're scrolling on your phone,
- 11:38Speaker 1: you may have noticed more and more videos popping up
- 11:41Speaker 1: of people supporting members of ICE and National Guard. There's
- 11:46Speaker 1: a lot more of that happening now. Now there's a
- 11:48Speaker 1: lot of that kind of pumped up by Department of
- 11:50Speaker 1: Homeland Security. I'm sure it is, but you didn't see
- 11:52Speaker 1: this before, And the Poles do reflect that there is
- 11:55Speaker 1: more support for the work they're doing, probably in reaction
- 11:58Speaker 1: to how they're getting attacked on this eat and yelled
- 12:00Speaker 1: that and it feared with at ICE facilities, blah blah blah.
- 12:03Speaker 1: And this is even outside of the issue of how
- 12:05Speaker 1: you feel about remigration policy. But you've seen a lot
- 12:09Speaker 1: more videos like this guy. This was in Louisiana. All right, brother,
- 12:13Speaker 1: what's your name? One name?
- 12:13Speaker 2: You've got nice us.
- 12:15Speaker 1: Nice to meet you, brother. Thank you for Nathan Mark.
- 12:20Speaker 3: I'm going to get an absolutely gosh, you're good man
- 12:22Speaker 3: and got something for you guys.
- 12:23Speaker 1: Hold on a second, hold on, I got my personal
- 12:26Speaker 1: coin here for you.
- 12:28Speaker 3: I I think I did.
- 12:29Speaker 1: There we go, I only got twenty up.
- 12:31Speaker 3: Brother, you say thanky, y'all, God, thanks, you got the
- 12:34Speaker 3: great work that can keep the.
- 12:36Speaker 1: Kind of seems like it was set up by maybe
- 12:38Speaker 1: the National Guard members or if that was ICE or
- 12:40Speaker 1: whatever it is. But still regardless, that's just one. I
- 12:42Speaker 1: cherry picked that out of just something I saw this morning,
- 12:44Speaker 1: because I've seen a ton of them, and you may
- 12:46Speaker 1: have to. There's a lot more support. Here's the takeaway.
- 12:49Speaker 1: There's a lot more support for these ICE agents and
- 12:52Speaker 1: the National Guard members and people who are going into
- 12:56Speaker 1: these cities deployed there now to try to make the
- 13:00Speaker 1: streets safer, a lot more than what you're certainly being
- 13:03Speaker 1: told on mainstream news for sure, and a lot more
- 13:06Speaker 1: than you were seeing on social media. This stuff is
- 13:08Speaker 1: starting to pop up now a lot more. It's kind
- 13:10Speaker 1: of interesting, how again, like it always is, the headlines
- 13:15Speaker 1: aren't matching up with what you see with your own
- 13:17Speaker 1: eyes and ears, and here with your ears, so take
- 13:20Speaker 1: it for a grain of salt, all right. I didn't
- 13:22Speaker 1: expect to still be talking about the Kennedy Center Honors
- 13:25Speaker 1: that happened this past weekend. By all accounts, everybody loved it,
- 13:29Speaker 1: so they Gloria Gaynor, I think Michael Crawford was there,
- 13:33Speaker 1: sliced alone, and Kiss was kind of the headliner because
- 13:35Speaker 1: it was kind of like a rock thing and like
- 13:37Speaker 1: Parl Wiers Kiss at the Oval Office the White House. Well,
- 13:39Speaker 1: the first takeaway was apparently very successful. Now, the Kennedy
- 13:42Speaker 1: Center Honors were always this inside little industry kind of thing,
- 13:46Speaker 1: and you know, honoring the people that nobody listened to them,
- 13:49Speaker 1: nobody watched their movies. So this was actually part of
- 13:52Speaker 1: the Trump administration's effort to make these honors more reflective
- 13:56Speaker 1: of popular art and popular culture. So it was a
- 13:59Speaker 1: big hit apparently by all. But there are so many
- 14:02Speaker 1: things that came out of this event that are fascinating
- 14:05Speaker 1: to me at least, it seems like every single day
- 14:07Speaker 1: from all of them, there's been a clip or an
- 14:09Speaker 1: interview from some of the things Lices the Loan said,
- 14:11Speaker 1: a lot of the things that Kiss had said, even
- 14:13Speaker 1: Michael Crawford talking about the event, what it means now,
- 14:17Speaker 1: what it actually means to have art that people actually
- 14:20Speaker 1: enjoy honored finally by a government funded the organization. And
- 14:26Speaker 1: then you had this, They talked, Now, Gene Simmons of Kiss,
- 14:29Speaker 1: you're probably aware of, always always has something to say
- 14:34Speaker 1: about every single topic. This didn't really pop up and
- 14:37Speaker 1: go viral until like early yesterday, So somebody on the
- 14:40Speaker 1: red carpet tried to egg him on and ask him
- 14:41Speaker 1: about who we voted for, because this is like the
- 14:43Speaker 1: this is the new entertainment reporter kind of thing now, right.
- 14:46Speaker 1: They always, if you pay attention to any of these
- 14:49Speaker 1: red carpet events, they always try to insert politics into everything.
- 14:52Speaker 1: Now It's just what they do, even in entertainment, which
- 14:54Speaker 1: used to be the escape from all that crap. Right, Well,
- 14:57Speaker 1: they asked tried to ask Gene Simmons in his wife
- 15:00Speaker 1: sin and Tweed who he voted for and what he
- 15:04Speaker 1: thinks and try to make it political. I got to
- 15:07Speaker 1: tell you, I've always been a kiss fan, you know that.
- 15:10Speaker 1: I got to tell you this is the best shutdown
- 15:13Speaker 1: of that got you kind of interview I've ever seen
- 15:15Speaker 1: in my life. I would love to see more celebrities
- 15:18Speaker 1: from all different kind of genres do this. I don't
- 15:20Speaker 1: think it's going to happen. It takes somebody like Jean
- 15:22Speaker 1: Simmons who actually do this. But how awesome is this?
- 15:24Speaker 1: And he makes a great, great point about celebrities talking
- 15:28Speaker 1: about individual people too, talking about who they vote for
- 15:31Speaker 1: and how it used to be. I absolutely pretty supportive
- 15:34Speaker 1: of the way he's handling the office. Why do you care? Well,
- 15:39Speaker 1: I'd be interested to see what you're thank him.
- 15:41Speaker 3: You've known him from nonsense. It's all clickbait. When I
- 15:44Speaker 3: was first starting to vote, there used to be a
- 15:47Speaker 3: curtain and you've voted anonymously and you voted your conscience.
- 15:52Speaker 3: And nowadays people want to know who you're voting for
- 15:55Speaker 3: the fucking businesses, anybody on your business. That's what every person,
- 16:01Speaker 3: one person, one vote makes the difference. And you guys
- 16:05Speaker 3: inflamed the situation by asking people, so, who did you vote,
- 16:09Speaker 3: who are you for?
- 16:10Speaker 1: Sorry about the F bomb, but there was no way
- 16:12Speaker 1: I was gonna that none of that should be edited.
- 16:15Speaker 1: It was absolutely fantastic. And how right is he? Remember that?
- 16:19Speaker 1: I remember growing up my dad used to tell me
- 16:22Speaker 1: two things. You know, never tell people how much you make.
- 16:25Speaker 1: Never tell people who you vote for. Like literally he
- 16:27Speaker 1: would say that, like it didn't dish out a lot
- 16:30Speaker 1: of advice, but that was definitely one of them. Now
- 16:33Speaker 1: what do I do? I go into radio where people
- 16:35Speaker 1: obviously could tell who I vote for. And I was
- 16:37Speaker 1: in radio, so I know I didn't make that much money.
- 16:39Speaker 1: So it's too late for me, But for you and
- 16:41Speaker 1: everybody else, it's become. That is a cultural change now,
- 16:44Speaker 1: isn't it Where people are so outwardly talking about how
- 16:47Speaker 1: they support politically and stuff that it wasn't that long ago, guys,
- 16:51Speaker 1: It wasn't that long ago in everyday life, in your
- 16:53Speaker 1: work life or social life or mixed company, you didn't
- 16:56Speaker 1: talk about that crap. You just didn't. You kept it
- 16:58Speaker 1: to yourself. We have to go back to that. And
- 17:00Speaker 1: God loved Gene Simmons for pointing that out and throwing
- 17:03Speaker 1: it right back into the gotcha journalists so called face
- 17:08Speaker 1: for trying to get him egg them on to say
- 17:10Speaker 1: that kind of thing. That we have to go back
- 17:12Speaker 1: to that, and it's something more than just celebrities not
- 17:14Speaker 1: talking about their personal politics. It's beyond that. It's you
- 17:17Speaker 1: and me and normal people not blurting it out all
- 17:20Speaker 1: the time everywhere. Yeah, I know social media is a
- 17:23Speaker 1: big cause of this kind of thing. Doesn't mean you
- 17:24Speaker 1: have to post who you're voting for or what you
- 17:26Speaker 1: think on every single time. We do need to go
- 17:30Speaker 1: back to that. I just love the fact that he
- 17:32Speaker 1: pointed that out because it really wasn't that long ago.
- 17:36Speaker 1: It wasn't go back ten If you go back ten
- 17:39Speaker 1: years ago, if somedthingly you could transport back in time
- 17:43Speaker 1: and you went into a social situation way less about
- 17:46Speaker 1: people talking about politics. Maybe we need to go back
- 17:48Speaker 1: to that. I don't know. But the big takeaway support
- 17:52Speaker 1: those who are trying to ban this insider stock trading thing.
- 17:54Speaker 1: It's eighty six percent in growing support of the country
- 17:57Speaker 1: to ban Congress and being able to do that. Are
- 17:59Speaker 1: they going to do it? No, But there are ways
- 18:02Speaker 1: you can take advantage of it too. Look up those
- 18:04Speaker 1: stock trading sites. It's worth it. You gotta do what
- 18:08Speaker 1: you want to do, but there's always an end around.
