Blockbuster SCOTUS Cases plus Radical CDC Nominee-The Masking Queen · The 47 Morning Update with Ben Ferguson

0:01
Speaker 1: Center. Nice to be with you.
0:02
Speaker 2: Happy fourth in July for everyone that's watching A day afterwards,
0:06
Speaker 2: and there were some really big victories in the Supreme Court.
0:10
Speaker 1: I think we should take.
0:11
Speaker 2: A moment to celebrate it also to tell people what
0:14
Speaker 2: is in these victories and what it means for precedence
0:16
Speaker 2: moving forward.
0:17
Speaker 1: And then there's politics dealing with us as well.
0:19
Speaker 2: We'll deal with that in a moment, with Democrats really
0:21
Speaker 2: trying to undermine the Court. But I go back to
0:24
Speaker 2: a saying that is said so many times by Conservats
0:26
Speaker 2: when they're running for office. Elections have consequences, and we
0:32
Speaker 2: have had some elections that made a solid conservative Supreme.
0:35
Speaker 1: Court, and now we're reaping the benefits of that.
0:38
Speaker 3: Well, let me say happy Birthday to the United States
0:41
Speaker 3: of America. July fourth. We celebrated our incredible nation. We
0:45
Speaker 3: celebrated our freedom. We celebrated the founding of this nation.
0:51
Speaker 3: We celebrated the signing of the Declaration of Independence. We
0:55
Speaker 3: hold these truths to be self evident, that all men
0:58
Speaker 3: are created equal, that they are in by their creator
1:01
Speaker 3: with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty
1:04
Speaker 3: in the pursuit of happiness. Those were extraordinary words, and
1:07
Speaker 3: I got to say those words were vindicated. Last week,
1:10
Speaker 3: we had some blockbuster Supreme Court decisions. We discussed several
1:14
Speaker 3: of them in an earlier pod last week. We're going
1:17
Speaker 3: to discuss two more today, two big, big decisions, the
1:21
Speaker 3: student loan decisions and the free speech religious liberty decision
1:26
Speaker 3: coming out of Colorado. Let's start with student loans. In
1:30
Speaker 3: Biden versus Nebraska, the Supreme Court, by a vote of
1:33
Speaker 3: six to three, struck down Joe Biden's blatantly illegal attempt
1:39
Speaker 3: to forgive student loans. It was an attempt right before
1:42
Speaker 3: the last election to buy a whole lot of votes.
1:46
Speaker 3: Joe Biden knew that it was lawless, He knew that
1:48
Speaker 3: he had no legal authority to do it. He knew
1:51
Speaker 3: that his lawyers almost certainly advised him this is contrary
1:56
Speaker 3: to federal statute. And he made the decision, screw it.
2:00
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it anyway, buy and votes because we
2:02
Speaker 3: got an election coming up, and we're going to buy votes.
2:05
Speaker 3: I'm going to tell people they're going to get their
2:07
Speaker 3: loans forgiven, even though, and I would wager dollar to
2:10
Speaker 3: donuts his lawyers told him we're gonna get sued we're
2:13
Speaker 3: going to go to court.
2:14
Speaker 4: We're gonna lose.
2:15
Speaker 3: And I do want to point out as we talk
2:17
Speaker 3: about this, when Biden issued this illegal student loan forgiveness plan,
2:23
Speaker 3: the next podcast we did, we did a deep analysis
2:28
Speaker 3: on the law and why it was illegal. Then that
2:32
Speaker 3: walks through the law and makes clear then what the
2:36
Speaker 3: Supreme Court has now ruled now, which is that we
2:40
Speaker 3: are a nation of laws and the president cannot act
2:43
Speaker 3: contrary to federal law. Now, the amazing thing is, you
2:47
Speaker 3: know who used to know.
2:47
Speaker 2: That, A lot of liberals, one of them that I
2:51
Speaker 2: know that you don't usually agree with Nancy Pelosi.
2:54
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know that we've ever teed up
2:56
Speaker 3: Nancy Pelosi in a positive sense. There is Nancy Pelosi
3:01
Speaker 3: doing something you've never seen or heard before, speaking the truth.
3:05
Speaker 5: People think that the President of the United States has
3:08
Speaker 5: the power for debt forgiveness. He does not. He can postpone,
3:14
Speaker 5: he can delay, but he does not have that power.
3:17
Speaker 5: That would has to be an Act of Congress. And
3:24
Speaker 5: I don't even like to call it forgiveness because that
3:28
Speaker 5: implies a transgression. It's not to be forgiven to get
3:32
Speaker 5: just bring people from those obligations so the question of
3:39
Speaker 5: who gets forgiven, whether to use the term of art
3:43
Speaker 5: that is out there is a debate. Do we use
3:48
Speaker 5: whatever money there is for the broadest base of support
3:51
Speaker 5: of those with more people with even less debt or
3:57
Speaker 5: fewer people with more debt. That a policy discussion, but
4:02
Speaker 5: the difference between the president president can't do it, So
4:06
Speaker 5: that's not even a discussion that not everybody realizes that.
4:10
Speaker 5: But the president can only postpone delay but not forgive.
4:14
Speaker 2: I've never enjoyed listening Nancy Pelosi more in my entire
4:17
Speaker 2: life than that clip right there.
4:19
Speaker 3: It truly is shocking. Every word she said was true. Yeah,
4:22
Speaker 3: and she said that beforehand.
4:24
Speaker 4: It was obvious.
4:24
Speaker 3: Look, everyone knew this that you couldn't just that the
4:28
Speaker 3: president's not a king, that he doesn't get to waive
4:30
Speaker 3: a scepter and forgive massive amounts of student loans. And look,
4:36
Speaker 3: there policy issues, and there are legal issues on the
4:40
Speaker 3: policy issues. What Joe Biden the Democrats did is is
4:44
Speaker 3: they purported to forgive ten thousand or in some cases,
4:48
Speaker 3: twenty thousand dollars of student loans from individuals making one
4:51
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty five thousand or lesser from couples making
4:54
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifty thousand or less. They did it
4:56
Speaker 3: because they thought, Okay, a bunch of young people, we
4:58
Speaker 3: can buy their votes, we can get a to go
5:00
Speaker 3: vote Democrat. And this was designed to be a massive
5:05
Speaker 3: wealth transfer. And so who were they hurting. They were
5:09
Speaker 3: hurting every person in this country that didn't get a
5:11
Speaker 3: college degree. They were hurting truck drivers, they were hurting
5:14
Speaker 3: steel workers, they were hurting blue collar workers. They were
5:17
Speaker 3: hurting union members. They were hurting also everyone who did
5:23
Speaker 3: get a college degree, who actually saved up and paid
5:28
Speaker 3: for their college degree. They're hurting everyone who did what
5:31
Speaker 3: I did, took loans. Look look when I went to college,
5:34
Speaker 3: a lot of them. When I went to college. When
5:36
Speaker 3: I went to grad school, my parents had just declared bankruptcy.
5:41
Speaker 3: They were in the oil and gas business. They had
5:42
Speaker 3: a small business. It was the mid eighties. Oil cratered
5:45
Speaker 3: and we lost everything. We lost our business, we lost
5:48
Speaker 3: our home. They were in bankruptcy. So I showed up
5:51
Speaker 3: in college and they had no money at all. I
5:54
Speaker 3: was seventeen and was on my own financially, and so
5:58
Speaker 3: I took a ton of student life in college and
6:01
Speaker 3: in law school, I came out of grad school with
6:05
Speaker 3: about one hundred grand in student loans.
6:07
Speaker 1: And this is back, I mean in today's dollars, that's
6:10
Speaker 1: a lot.
6:10
Speaker 3: That's a lot. This is twenty plus years ago, significant
6:14
Speaker 3: amount of cash. It was nineteen ninety five. I owed
6:17
Speaker 3: over one hundred grand, so that almost thirty years ago.
6:20
Speaker 3: And you know, I joked that I had a mortgage.
6:22
Speaker 3: I just didn't have a house. Yeah, And I paid
6:25
Speaker 3: off those student loans for almost two decades. I paid
6:29
Speaker 3: them all off eventually, but I made payments every month,
6:32
Speaker 3: every month. And when I had a job, I sent
6:33
Speaker 3: a check, and I sent a check, and I sent
6:35
Speaker 3: a check. And that's the way you're doing it. Well,
6:37
Speaker 3: you know what the Democrats said. You know, you and
6:39
Speaker 3: I are chumps. If you paid off your student loan,
6:41
Speaker 3: you're a fool. The responsible ones, Nope, what they want
6:45
Speaker 3: to do, and it's a reverse robinhood. They're literally taking
6:50
Speaker 3: it from guys out digging ditches. They're taking their money
6:54
Speaker 3: and they're giving it to young lawyers and young doctors
6:57
Speaker 3: and young university professors. And really that's who the Democrat
7:01
Speaker 3: Party is, which is the party of the wealthy intelligentsia.
7:05
Speaker 3: And today The Republican Party is a blue collar party.
7:09
Speaker 3: It's the party of working men and women. It's also
7:12
Speaker 3: a party of responsibility. Like you know, there's a funny
7:14
Speaker 3: meme online which is, you know, solving the student debt crisis,
7:19
Speaker 3: you borrowed it, you took a loan solution.
7:23
Speaker 4: Pay it back. Yeah, that was my solution.
7:26
Speaker 3: And look, it wasn't fun to spend almost twenty years
7:30
Speaker 3: paying it back. But I took the loan, I owed
7:32
Speaker 3: the money. And by the way, I also took the
7:36
Speaker 3: loan to get a degree to make money. That enabled
7:39
Speaker 3: me to get a good job to make the money
7:42
Speaker 3: to pay it back. This is an issue where on
7:45
Speaker 3: politics the Democrats have a confluence of number one sort
7:50
Speaker 3: of young, unemployed slacker smoking bonds. That's who they're appealing to.
7:58
Speaker 3: These are the same people who do during COVID they
8:00
Speaker 3: wanted to pay not to work. Well, you know, if
8:03
Speaker 3: you're not working, it's hard to pay your student loans.
8:05
Speaker 3: And suddenly Democrats have told a bunch of twenty three
8:07
Speaker 3: year olds, you don't got to work, man, that'd be
8:10
Speaker 3: mean to make you work.
8:12
Speaker 1: Or you don't have to pay off your loans for
8:13
Speaker 1: years now.
8:14
Speaker 4: Right like that?
8:16
Speaker 3: But there's a second group, which is the constituencies, which
8:19
Speaker 3: is the universities, and the universities have become entrenched pits
8:23
Speaker 3: of Marxism. But ironically they're Marxists who like to make
8:27
Speaker 3: the money, which is actually not that ironic. If you
8:30
Speaker 3: look at whether it's Putin, whether it's Fidel Castro, whether
8:33
Speaker 3: it's She. Marxists lived like billionaires. They're actually very good
8:38
Speaker 3: in using power for them to live well. So the
8:40
Speaker 3: universities are printing money.
8:44
Speaker 1: But they're can endowments. People don't talk about either.
8:47
Speaker 4: Multi multi billion dollar endowments.
8:49
Speaker 3: The professors live like kings and they can't get fired.
8:53
Speaker 3: They have life tenure, and they convince young people, hey,
8:57
Speaker 3: take one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand student loans
9:00
Speaker 3: to get a major in underwater basket weaving or in
9:05
Speaker 3: you know, transgender.
9:09
Speaker 4: Literature analysis.
9:11
Speaker 3: And then they find wait, I got a degree that
9:15
Speaker 3: no one wants to hire.
9:16
Speaker 4: Yeah, like there is.
9:18
Speaker 3: It used to be when you went to school and
9:21
Speaker 3: you're taking loans and you said, okay, I got to
9:22
Speaker 3: pay these loans back. You stopped and said, okay, at
9:25
Speaker 3: the end of this, I'd like to be able to
9:26
Speaker 3: get a job and So the Democrats are taking care
9:29
Speaker 3: of two constituencies, young people who they've convinced it's a
9:32
Speaker 3: good idea not to work and they don't have to
9:35
Speaker 3: pay their debts, and universities who are scamming young people,
9:39
Speaker 3: not teaching them life skills to get good jobs, but
9:42
Speaker 3: instead in doctrinating them with woke nonsense, which happens not
9:47
Speaker 3: to pay the bills at the end of the day.
9:50
Speaker 3: And here's what they're gambling. They're gambling that the truck
9:54
Speaker 3: drivers and steel workers will never know the difference, that
9:58
Speaker 3: the union workers won't understan stand they're getting sold a
10:02
Speaker 3: bill of goods. I'll tell you there's one fellow understood.
10:06
Speaker 3: A fellow came up and talked to Elizabeth Warren. So
10:08
Speaker 3: watch this exchange in twenty twenty on the campaign trail
10:12
Speaker 3: when she was offering the same sort of giveaway that
10:14
Speaker 3: Joe Biden tried to do.
10:17
Speaker 6: I just want to ask one question, because my daughter's
10:19
Speaker 6: getting out of school. I saved all my money. She
10:21
Speaker 6: doesn't have any scheming my conflict. Am I gonna get.
10:24
Speaker 7: Your money back?
10:25
Speaker 6: So it's not so you're gonna pay for people who
10:28
Speaker 6: didn't save any money. So, yeah, those of us who
10:30
Speaker 6: did the right thing get screamed.
10:31
Speaker 8: You know it's not even got scream.
10:33
Speaker 1: We said, of course we did.
10:34
Speaker 6: My buddy had fun, bought a car, went on vacations.
10:36
Speaker 6: I saved my money. He made more than idea. But
10:39
Speaker 6: I worked a double, ship, worked extra. My daughters works
10:42
Speaker 6: in his tent.
10:43
Speaker 1: So you're laughing.
10:45
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's exactly what you're doing. We did the right
10:47
Speaker 6: thing and we get screamed.
10:49
Speaker 7: I appreciate that.
10:49
Speaker 2: Sorry, there's a lot of people that feel like him.
10:53
Speaker 1: I remember the first check I ever got.
10:56
Speaker 2: I wrote a book right out of college, and I
10:59
Speaker 2: got that advance check and I paid off a large
11:02
Speaker 2: chunk of my student loans.
11:03
Speaker 1: I didn't want to.
11:04
Speaker 2: I wanted to go buy something fun like you was
11:06
Speaker 2: talking about his buddy a new car, and I said, no,
11:08
Speaker 2: I'm going to be responsible. I don't want to have debt.
11:11
Speaker 2: There are people that work two jobs and three jobs
11:13
Speaker 2: out of school to pay off those student loans. And
11:16
Speaker 2: he's right what he was saying here.
11:18
Speaker 4: But by the way, notice her response. Her first response.
11:21
Speaker 3: She laughs at him, yeah, and then she's like thank
11:25
Speaker 3: you and just walks off. She doesn't answer his question.
11:27
Speaker 3: He says, I got screwed my buddy. He went out,
11:30
Speaker 3: bought a new car, lived it out, and she has
11:33
Speaker 3: no substantive response. That is the modern Democrat response. They
11:37
Speaker 3: don't give a damn. They don't actually engage in debate
11:40
Speaker 3: with you, they don't actually have a discussion. They're like,
11:43
Speaker 3: you don't matter, I don't care about you, because they're
11:49
Speaker 3: gambling that other people like him won't realize they're getting screwed.
11:53
Speaker 4: And you know the magnitude of it.
11:54
Speaker 3: So look, the legal argument that Joe Biden put forward
11:58
Speaker 3: to how he claimed he had the thought to do
12:00
Speaker 3: that is something called the Heroes Act. So the Heroes
12:03
Speaker 3: Act was a bill that Congress passed following nine to eleven.
12:08
Speaker 3: So September eleventh, the Global War on Terror begins. Planes
12:13
Speaker 3: fly into the World Trade Center, fly into the Pentagon.
12:16
Speaker 3: Congress passed the Heroes Act, which gives the Secretary of
12:19
Speaker 3: Education the authority to quote, waiver modify any statutory regulatory
12:23
Speaker 3: provision applicable to the student financial Assistance programs under Title
12:28
Speaker 3: I of the Education Act, as the Secretary deems necessary
12:33
Speaker 3: in connection with a war or other military operation or
12:39
Speaker 3: national emergency. In other words, the Heroes Act was designed
12:43
Speaker 3: to there are a bunch of soldiers and sailors and
12:45
Speaker 3: airmen and marines that were off in Afghanistan, off fighting
12:48
Speaker 3: to defend America. And it was to say, we can
12:51
Speaker 3: give some debt relief to those young fighting men and
12:53
Speaker 3: women that are keeping us safe. And what Joe Biden
12:57
Speaker 3: said is, well, now, everybody, we're all soldiers now, yeah,
13:00
Speaker 3: And they hinge it all on national emergency. They said, well, okay,
13:04
Speaker 3: COVID's a national emergency.
13:05
Speaker 1: So therefore we'll stop all the payments.
13:07
Speaker 4: And then we'll just forgive it.
13:09
Speaker 3: And by the way, the magnitude of how much we're
13:13
Speaker 3: talking about, the initial estimates were five hundred billion. There
13:16
Speaker 3: were later estimates that this was over a trillion dollars.
13:19
Speaker 3: You could never get a firm estimate on how much
13:22
Speaker 3: it costs. And the argument of the Democrats was, with
13:25
Speaker 3: a stroke of the pen, Joe Biden could give away
13:28
Speaker 3: a trillion dollars because he wants to or to buy votes.
13:32
Speaker 3: In translation, and one of the fundamental protections of the
13:36
Speaker 3: Constitution is that Congress has the power of the purse.
13:41
Speaker 3: In other words, if you're going to spend money, the
13:45
Speaker 3: elected representatives in Congress have to sign off on it.
13:49
Speaker 3: This was an assault fundamentally on the limitations of the
13:53
Speaker 3: power of the president and the requirement that it be
13:57
Speaker 3: Congress that appropriates money. And yet here's Joe Biden reacting
14:01
Speaker 3: with disdain at anyone who would hold him too account.
14:05
Speaker 2: Before we get to that, I want to tell you
14:06
Speaker 2: about Augusta Precious Medals. If you are sick and tired

Speaker 2: com eight seven seven the number four Gold IRA Center.
15:25
Speaker 1: Let's take a look at this.
15:26
Speaker 2: Is Joe Biden, in his own words, getting very upset
15:30
Speaker 2: that people are questioning his motive or was he just
15:32
Speaker 2: straight uplying to the American people.
15:35
Speaker 9: Mister president, why did you give millions of borrowers false hope?
15:38
Speaker 9: You've dated doubted your own authority here in the past.
15:41
Speaker 7: I didn't give any false hope. The question was whether
15:45
Speaker 7: or not if I would do even more than was requested.
15:48
Speaker 7: What I did I thought was appropriate and was able
15:51
Speaker 7: to be done and would get done. I didn't give
15:53
Speaker 7: bars false hope. But the Republicans snatched away the hope
15:57
Speaker 7: that they were given.
15:58
Speaker 2: And it's real, there was no hope ever from Republicans
16:03
Speaker 2: this would ever pass Number one and two. I really
16:07
Speaker 2: get to say this, what hell of a question from
16:08
Speaker 2: a reporter finally about him lying to the American people
16:11
Speaker 2: on purpose.
16:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, look, he knew he was lying. His team knew
16:15
Speaker 3: he was lying, the media knew he was lying. Everyone
16:19
Speaker 3: knew that giving away a trillion dollars to every student
16:23
Speaker 3: borrower in America was not falling under the Heroes Act
16:27
Speaker 3: for Times of War taking care of soldiers and sailors. Yeah,
16:31
Speaker 3: like it was a ludicrous interpretation. His own Department of
16:35
Speaker 3: Justice had told him that, and then he flipped, had
16:38
Speaker 3: them flip their decision and wrote a very creative opinion
16:40
Speaker 3: to justify the lawlessness. And you know what, it was
16:43
Speaker 3: great political lawyering. In other words, it was putting politics
16:46
Speaker 3: ahead of law. It was obvious on this podcast more
16:52
Speaker 3: than a year ago. I said this will be struck down,
16:54
Speaker 3: and it will be struck down six ' to three.
16:56
Speaker 3: And the only challenge, I said, was standing. In other words,
16:59
Speaker 3: they were gamming that it was going to be hard
17:02
Speaker 3: to find a plaintiff who could challenge it. That was
17:05
Speaker 3: their one hope is the court couldn't get to the merits.
17:08
Speaker 3: I said, if he gets to the merits, it's a
17:10
Speaker 3: six ' to three easy decision. As it so happened,
17:13
Speaker 3: there were two lawsuits. One of them the Spring Court
17:15
Speaker 3: threw out and said you didn't have standing, but the
17:18
Speaker 3: other one, the Nebraska case, they concluded they did have
17:21
Speaker 3: standing and on the merits it was exactly what I said. Actually,
17:26
Speaker 3: Chief Justice Roberts, who wrote the majority opinion, quoted Nancy
17:29
Speaker 3: Pelosi with what we just played and said, look, everyone
17:32
Speaker 3: knew you couldn't do this, and this was a political
17:35
Speaker 3: decision to.
17:37
Speaker 4: Ignore the law.
17:39
Speaker 3: And you know, it's interesting, Biden gets so angry when
17:44
Speaker 3: he's challenged. It is really happened. It so rarely happens,
17:49
Speaker 3: but his anger is is just palpable at it. And
17:55
Speaker 3: it's and by the way, we forced to vote in
17:57
Speaker 3: Congress to to rescind this legislatively, and the Democrats in
18:04
Speaker 3: a party line vote, they've decided blue collar voters don't
18:08
Speaker 3: matter to them. They think the Democrats think blue collar
18:11
Speaker 3: voters are too dumb to know they're getting screwed here,
18:15
Speaker 3: that this is this is the Democrat Party selling out
18:21
Speaker 3: steel workers.
18:23
Speaker 4: In order to buy favor with gender studies.
18:27
Speaker 2: Majors, We've seen big victories in the Supreme Court recently
18:31
Speaker 2: like we've never seen before, at least in my lifetime,
18:34
Speaker 2: and consistently. There's something that's happening here that I think
18:37
Speaker 2: is encouraging because we're seeing the rule of law being
18:40
Speaker 2: applied and they're not getting away.
18:42
Speaker 1: With these radical ideas.
18:44
Speaker 2: There's also those something that's happening that concerns me and
18:47
Speaker 2: I think many people that listen to this podcast and watch,
18:51
Speaker 2: and that is the delegitimizing and the undermining of the
18:54
Speaker 2: Supreme Court and what Democrats are trying to do.
18:57
Speaker 1: And it's happened. We saw this with Roe v. Wade.
18:59
Speaker 2: We've gone a great detail on that, the threats and
19:01
Speaker 2: the pressure, the leaking of that opinion, doxing the the
19:05
Speaker 2: Supreme Court justice where they live, putting their lives in danger.
19:09
Speaker 2: In other words, Democrats saying, if you don't give us
19:11
Speaker 2: what we want, we're going to burn the whole place down.
19:14
Speaker 2: We're gonna pack the court, We're gonna redo it the
19:16
Speaker 2: way we want it.
19:17
Speaker 1: How we even say term limits.
19:19
Speaker 2: In fact, you can see the media when they all
19:22
Speaker 2: got together in this montage doing exactly that when they
19:25
Speaker 2: didn't get their way on one issue.
19:30
Speaker 7: And honestly, at this point, I think we're all right
19:32
Speaker 7: to a question the legitimacy of the.
19:34
Speaker 5: Court like an anti version activist wrote it not a
19:37
Speaker 5: Supreme Court justice.
19:38
Speaker 6: These justices are acting like this is somehow something that
19:43
Speaker 6: they have the right to change.
19:44
Speaker 9: They do not have the right to.
19:46
Speaker 6: Change this and this Supreme Court.
19:48
Speaker 10: That's it.
19:49
Speaker 5: They don't care.
19:50
Speaker 9: They don't care about this women.
19:51
Speaker 5: What they care about is enclosing their extremest view all
19:54
Speaker 5: the rest of the country.
19:55
Speaker 2: Supreme Court is poised to inflict the greatest restriction of
20:00
Speaker 2: rights in the past fifty years.
20:02
Speaker 8: Part of the.
20:03
Speaker 1: Decision would be an abomination and abomination that's just on
20:07
Speaker 1: Roe v. Wade.
20:08
Speaker 2: But they are now pushing this every time they don't
20:10
Speaker 2: get their way. Hey, we're going to de legitimize this court.
20:14
Speaker 2: We're gonna say that they're wrong. We saw Joe Biden
20:17
Speaker 2: say this court's not a normal court or something to
20:19
Speaker 2: that effect when he was walking out he took that
20:21
Speaker 2: last question.
20:22
Speaker 1: He was walking out the room of the White House.
20:23
Speaker 1: And that concerns me.
20:24
Speaker 2: And the Supreme Court does at least seem to be
20:27
Speaker 2: fighting back a little bit.
20:29
Speaker 3: The radical left has corrupted every major institution of government.
20:33
Speaker 3: We've seen under Joe Biden. We've seen the hard left,
20:38
Speaker 3: the cultural Marxists take over We've seen them politicize and
20:42
Speaker 3: weaponized the Department of Justice, politicize and weaponize the FBI,
20:47
Speaker 3: politicize and weaponized the IRS, politicize and weaponize the intelligence community.
20:53
Speaker 3: As you know, my last book, Justice Corrupted. The entire
20:55
Speaker 3: book is on the left seizing law enforcement and turning
20:59
Speaker 3: it into a political weapon to attack their opponents.
21:04
Speaker 4: We've also seen them do that in Congress.
21:06
Speaker 3: The absolute abuse of power we've seen from congressional Democrats
21:11
Speaker 3: in the Senate and in the House last year, the
21:14
Speaker 3: radical agenda they ram through the strict party line vote.
21:17
Speaker 3: There used to be such a thing as moderate Democrats
21:21
Speaker 3: in the Senate. In the House, they don't exist anymore.
21:23
Speaker 3: They have been driven out because the Democrats hate Trump
21:26
Speaker 3: so much that they've embraced Look Elizabeth Warren and Bernie
21:31
Speaker 3: Sanders and AOC that is the heart of today's Democrat party.
21:36
Speaker 3: They're all socialists now. The one institution the Democrats have
21:40
Speaker 3: not managed to corrupt as the Supreme Court. So they've
21:45
Speaker 3: corrupted from within the executive branch, both the presidency but
21:49
Speaker 3: also the cabinet members, but also the career bureaucrats.
21:53
Speaker 4: Up and down the agencies.
21:55
Speaker 3: They've corrupted Congress, the Senate, in the House, they've corrupted
22:00
Speaker 3: the media, they've corrupted big tech. And the one outlier
22:05
Speaker 3: is the third branch of government, the judiciary that thank god,
22:09
Speaker 3: there are justices there who are actually following the law
22:11
Speaker 3: and the fury they have. Look this student loan decision.
22:16
Speaker 3: A few years ago, Nancy Pelosi said, it was obvious
22:20
Speaker 3: any lawyer who tells you like is actually speaking the truth,
22:23
Speaker 3: who is at a wild partisan would say this should
22:26
Speaker 3: have been nine to zero. This is obvious that you
22:28
Speaker 3: can't give away a trillion dollars under a statute meant
22:31
Speaker 3: to help soldiers at a time of war. You don't
22:34
Speaker 3: get to call everyone a soldier and just give away
22:37
Speaker 3: a trillion dollars that if you want to do that,
22:39
Speaker 3: if you think it's a good policy to give away
22:41
Speaker 3: a trillion dollars, you actually have to pass legislation through
22:45
Speaker 3: the House, through the Senate, and get it signed by
22:47
Speaker 3: the president.
22:49
Speaker 4: That's how you pass legislation. Everyone knows that.
22:52
Speaker 3: But today's left wing Democrats they want the result and
22:57
Speaker 3: the hell with what the lawyer is, and so their
23:01
Speaker 3: intention they are systematically trying to delegitimize the court, trying
23:06
Speaker 3: to attack the court. Well, look, listen to this one
23:09
Speaker 3: one left wing congressman talk about his plans for the court.
23:12
Speaker 10: A lot of lawmakers are calling for an expansion of
23:14
Speaker 10: the Supreme Court.
23:16
Speaker 5: Do you think the president should do that?
23:19
Speaker 4: Yes, expand a Supreme Court.
23:22
Speaker 10: We need Supreme Court ethics reform, and we need term limits.
23:25
Speaker 2: That's a completely different setup of the Supreme Court.
23:30
Speaker 1: So we don't get our way. We want term limits.
23:32
Speaker 2: I'm not sure why he's saying they want ethics reforms
23:35
Speaker 2: that they can blackmail them.
23:36
Speaker 4: Oh, no, no ethics reform.
23:37
Speaker 3: Look, we've seen the entire assault directed to Clarence Thomas
23:42
Speaker 3: from Pro Publica, funded by dark money left wing outfits,
23:45
Speaker 3: and we did a show on seeing bogus ethics complaints.
23:49
Speaker 3: We did a whole show on that, pointing out that
23:51
Speaker 3: the rules they're applying to Clarence Thomas, he followed the rules.
23:55
Speaker 3: His conduct is the same as the left wing justices,
23:58
Speaker 3: is the same as Steve Bryce, iiras Ruth Bader Ginsburg,
24:01
Speaker 3: as Sonya saw to my as Atlanta Kagan. But the
24:06
Speaker 3: Democrats in the media are applying a completely double standard.
24:08
Speaker 3: They're faulting him for following the rules, and they're not
24:11
Speaker 3: looking at all on the conduct of the justices on
24:15
Speaker 3: the left.
24:16
Speaker 4: That's the quote.
24:17
Speaker 3: Ethics reform is part of the Democrats assault on the
24:20
Speaker 3: court to delegitimize it. Term limits and packing the court
24:24
Speaker 3: look FDR when he was trying to ram through the
24:28
Speaker 3: new Deal, wanted to pack the court, wanted to grow,
24:30
Speaker 3: and packing the court has a meaning. It means expanding
24:36
Speaker 3: the number of justices in the court so you can
24:37
Speaker 3: ram additional justices on there to control the outcome. In
24:41
Speaker 3: this case, what the Democrats want to do is grow
24:44
Speaker 3: the Supreme Court from nine justices to thirteen justices so
24:48
Speaker 3: they can immediately port a point four left wing justices
24:52
Speaker 3: to undermine the Constitution across the board. It is profoundly
24:57
Speaker 3: dangerous by the way leftists, as is their wont abuse
25:01
Speaker 3: the language. They accuse Republicans of packing the court. And
25:05
Speaker 3: here's a pro tip. Everything the left is doing they
25:09
Speaker 3: accuse the other side of doing. It's almost whatever the
25:12
Speaker 3: accusation is, you can be like, oh, that's what you're doing,
25:15
Speaker 3: so it is not packing the court to fill a
25:20
Speaker 3: vacancy with justices. It is true that Republican presidents have
25:26
Speaker 3: been elected, Republican senates have been elected, those Republican presidents
25:31
Speaker 3: have nominated constitutionalist justices, and those Republican Senates have confirmed
25:36
Speaker 3: constitutionalist justices. That is not quote packing the court, right,
25:41
Speaker 3: that's the ordinary operation of our constitutional system for nominating
25:45
Speaker 3: and confirming justices. What is packing the court is altering
25:49
Speaker 3: the number of justices in order to just ram your
25:52
Speaker 3: partisans on board. That's what the Democrats want to do,
25:55
Speaker 3: and it's profoundly dangerous.
25:56
Speaker 2: We're going to keep watching this becau it's going to
25:58
Speaker 2: be very important, but at least we're getting these And
26:00
Speaker 2: I also think there's one other encouraging aspect of this.
26:03
Speaker 2: The Supreme Court justice seemed to be becoming much more
26:06
Speaker 2: outspoken on this and not taking as much crap.
26:10
Speaker 1: From the meeting.
26:10
Speaker 4: Well, they're democratics. They're just following the law, and that's.
26:14
Speaker 2: Good because they've been attacked and the undermining of the court.
26:17
Speaker 2: I think they understood how much damage was done with
26:19
Speaker 2: the Roe v. Weight undermining and the releasing of that
26:21
Speaker 2: document beforehand and the doxing of them. Like I think
26:25
Speaker 2: now they're saying we're going to stick to the rules,
26:27
Speaker 2: but I'm glad to see them say it publicly.
26:29
Speaker 3: So there's a reason the framers of the Constitution gave
26:32
Speaker 3: justicees life tenure. They're supposed to be immune or at
26:37
Speaker 3: least resistant to political pressure.
26:40
Speaker 4: And you may be right.
26:41
Speaker 3: You may see this majority now saying fine, if you're
26:44
Speaker 3: going to just assault this institution, we're going to keep
26:48
Speaker 3: our eyes on the law, and we're going to follow
26:50
Speaker 3: the law and follow the Constitution and let politics do
26:53
Speaker 3: what it may. Look you look at this other decision
26:56
Speaker 3: from last week, three or three creative lens that this
27:01
Speaker 3: is a very important decision. It's a religious liberty decision,
27:06
Speaker 3: it's a free speech decision. It was six ' three
27:08
Speaker 3: as well. Justice Gorsich wrote, wrote the opinion, and what
27:12
Speaker 3: happened Here is a woman named Laurie Smith. Laurie Smith
27:15
Speaker 3: is an artist. She's a website designer. So she designs websites.
27:18
Speaker 3: That's what she does. She's creative. She makes websites and
27:22
Speaker 3: does She wanted to do wedding websites. She thought it'd
27:25
Speaker 3: be fun to do. You know, Ben and An are
27:27
Speaker 3: getting married. Let's do a website. Let's celebrate their lives.
27:31
Speaker 3: Let's design something that tells their story. She's a storyteller. Well,
27:38
Speaker 3: the facts a legend The case is that two gay
27:41
Speaker 3: men wanted to hire her to create a website celebrating
27:47
Speaker 3: a gay marriage, a same sex marriage. She is a
27:50
Speaker 3: believing Christian and she did not want to tell that story.
27:53
Speaker 3: She did not want to say that she agreed with
27:57
Speaker 3: that because she doesn't agree with it. And Colorado has
28:01
Speaker 3: a very very strict law. They call it a non
28:04
Speaker 3: discrimination law, but it's design to really force and punish
28:09
Speaker 3: anyone who wants to exercise their own religious liberty. Now,
28:13
Speaker 3: she wasn't trying to stop their wedding. She wasn't speaking
28:15
Speaker 3: out against their wedding. She was saying, I don't want
28:18
Speaker 3: to use my voice to say something that my faith
28:22
Speaker 3: teaches me is wrong.
28:24
Speaker 4: Well, the Supreme Court six ' three ruled for her,
28:26
Speaker 4: and what's striking.
28:29
Speaker 3: So there's several things that are striking, and I should
28:31
Speaker 3: point out I led an amicust brief in this case
28:34
Speaker 3: along with Senator Mike Lee. We had a number of
28:36
Speaker 3: House members and senators who joined us, urging precisely this outcome.
28:39
Speaker 4: So this was I filed.
28:40
Speaker 3: A brief in this case, and the Supreme Court agreed
28:42
Speaker 3: with our brief and upheld her religious liberty rights. But
28:46
Speaker 3: let me start with this point, which is the corrupt
28:51
Speaker 3: corporate media deliberately and Democrats deliberately are wildly mischaracterizing this case.
28:58
Speaker 3: So I want to give an example of AXI, which
29:00
Speaker 3: is this fairly well respected media outlet who put out
29:04
Speaker 3: a tweet and a headline that was just objectively false.
29:09
Speaker 3: And so I responded on Twitter. So here is the
29:12
Speaker 3: tweet they put out. The tweet they put out is
29:15
Speaker 3: Supreme Court rules businesses can refuse service to LGBTQ plus customers.
29:23
Speaker 4: Now if you look at.
29:24
Speaker 3: That, that headline is objectively false, and you see what
29:29
Speaker 3: they wrote in their tweet breaking businesses can refuse to
29:32
Speaker 3: serve same sex couples if doing so would violate the
29:35
Speaker 3: owner's religious beliefs. The Supreme Court ruled on Friday. And
29:39
Speaker 3: so here's what I tweeted. I had a three part
29:41
Speaker 3: tweet threat.
29:41
Speaker 4: I said.
29:42
Speaker 3: First of all, if Axios were a first year law student,
29:46
Speaker 3: this answer would earn an f. It is either ignorance
29:51
Speaker 3: they don't know, or dishonesty they know in their line.
29:56
Speaker 4: I suspect the latter. I think they know in their line.
30:00
Speaker 3: If it's the former, if it's an honest mistake, then
30:02
Speaker 3: a real journalistic outlet with integrity would issue a correction. Now,
30:08
Speaker 3: why is it that they are wrong and they're either
30:11
Speaker 3: ignorant or lying. Well, let's look at the second tweet thread.
30:15
Speaker 3: Assuming that whoever wrote the headline didn't actually bother to
30:19
Speaker 3: read the opinion, which I think is a pretty good assumption.
30:23
Speaker 3: What the court did hold is that the First Amendment
30:28
Speaker 3: prohibits the State of Colorado from compelling a website designer
30:35
Speaker 3: to create expressive designs speaking messages with which she disagrees.
30:43
Speaker 3: This is a free speech case. This is about her
30:46
Speaker 3: right to speak and not be forced by the government
30:49
Speaker 3: to say things she disagrees with.
30:51
Speaker 4: Third tweet the tweet thread.
30:53
Speaker 3: So, for example, the government could not force Axios to
30:57
Speaker 3: tweet all journalists are morons or Donald Trump is awesome,
31:04
Speaker 3: two sentiments with which presumably Axios disagrees, Like, you can't
31:10
Speaker 3: force they can't go force Ben Ferguson to go say
31:16
Speaker 3: something I don't believe in online and say Memphis sucks.
31:20
Speaker 3: You're just not gonna.
31:21
Speaker 2: Say you like bleed Memphis hometown. That's just the way
31:27
Speaker 2: it is. But no, you're right, I should never be
31:29
Speaker 2: put in that situation. And if you have a venue
31:31
Speaker 2: hall where you rent it out to people, and someone
31:33
Speaker 2: says I'm gonna come have a Satanic ritual there, and
31:36
Speaker 2: you say I don't want that in my private venue.
31:39
Speaker 2: You shouldn't be, you know, sued or lose a court
31:42
Speaker 2: case over that for religious beliefs.
31:44
Speaker 3: So look, that's actually a different case. My point is
31:47
Speaker 3: this case is very different. This is about free speech.
31:50
Speaker 3: This is about expressive design. A website designer is writing.
31:54
Speaker 3: You were writing your own message. The point about this case,
31:58
Speaker 3: this really is the heart of it. It should the
32:01
Speaker 3: government force you to speak? So look, hosting a venue
32:06
Speaker 3: that's a different issue, and there's been litigation over that.
32:09
Speaker 3: But First Amendment speech, this would be about your radio host.
32:15
Speaker 3: Can the government force you to say things you disagree with? Now,
32:18
Speaker 3: I will tell you just how dishonest the media is. Well,
32:22
Speaker 3: I'm not going to tell you how dishonest the media is.
32:24
Speaker 3: I want to show you. So watch David Brooks from
32:29
Speaker 3: the New York Times.
32:31
Speaker 10: I'm not qualified to give it a legal opinion. I'm
32:33
Speaker 10: not a lawyer. So I look at it as a
32:34
Speaker 10: good or bad for society. And so in this case,
32:37
Speaker 10: you had the right for artistic expression against non discrimination,
32:41
Speaker 10: and it was a contest between those two, and the
32:43
Speaker 10: court chose free expression. That strikes me, just as someone
32:46
Speaker 10: who lives in American society, as doing great harm to
32:49
Speaker 10: American society. It seems to me the idea that we
32:51
Speaker 10: do not discriminate in our businesses is just that's much
32:55
Speaker 10: more serious thing to break that than to restrict someone
32:59
Speaker 10: who's really running a business, not just painting a painting,
33:03
Speaker 10: but is running a business, and in fact that person
33:05
Speaker 10: who is running a business is allowed to discriminate. It
33:07
Speaker 10: seems to me it's just a poison in our society.
33:11
Speaker 3: So I got to say, David Brooks, who I don't
33:13
Speaker 3: know very well. I've met him, but I don't really
33:15
Speaker 3: know him. He's paid by the New York Times to
33:18
Speaker 3: be their fake conservative. So he claims to be a
33:20
Speaker 3: sort of conservative who just happens to agree with the
33:22
Speaker 3: left on everything.
33:24
Speaker 4: And his whole job is to say.
33:26
Speaker 3: I'm a conservative, and I hate conservatives, I hate all
33:30
Speaker 3: the people who believe what I say I'm believing. And
33:33
Speaker 3: at some level you got to wonder, what's the what
33:36
Speaker 3: self respect does someone have? Because he literally he's surrounded
33:40
Speaker 3: by people who loathe conservatives, he pretends to be one
33:43
Speaker 3: he's obviously not. But his whole point is to be
33:47
Speaker 3: the whipping boy.
33:47
Speaker 4: You know, you know in the.
33:48
Speaker 3: Old well, you know in old monarchies where you'd have
33:54
Speaker 3: the king and the prince, and the prince would misbehave,
33:57
Speaker 3: Like the phrase whipping boy came from. They didn't want
33:59
Speaker 3: to spank the prince because he had a royal behind,
34:03
Speaker 3: so the whipping boy. When the prince misbehaved, they grabbed
34:06
Speaker 3: the whipping boy and whip the whipping boy. And the
34:08
Speaker 3: whole purpose of it was the royal drri era cannot
34:11
Speaker 3: be touched. Someone needs to be spanked because of the
34:14
Speaker 3: prince's mouth seasans, So let's whip the whipping boy. It's
34:17
Speaker 3: the person whose job it is to take the blows. Well,
34:20
Speaker 3: that's what David Brooks there says. So number one, he
34:22
Speaker 3: starts by saying, I'm not qualified to say anything about
34:25
Speaker 3: this because I'm not a lawyer. He's right, he's not
34:27
Speaker 3: qualified because he's not only not a lawyer, he hasn't
34:29
Speaker 3: read the opinion, he doesn't know what it's about, and
34:31
Speaker 3: he's not talking about the opinion. So it's not just
34:34
Speaker 3: that he doesn't have a law degree, it's that he
34:35
Speaker 3: hasn't done even the barest modicum of homework to know
34:38
Speaker 3: what the case is about. But he knows what he's
34:40
Speaker 3: supposed to say. He's supposed to say the left is
34:43
Speaker 3: right and the right is wrong, because that's what he
34:45
Speaker 3: says every time, usually in a very self righteous, moralistic way.
34:52
Speaker 3: In this instance, he says, this is a battle between
34:54
Speaker 3: discrimination and artistic expression. No, no, no, it's speech. Wh it
35:01
Speaker 3: is literally can you force let me ask you, can
35:04
Speaker 3: you force a Jewish rabbi to perform a Muslim wedding ceremony?
35:10
Speaker 1: Yeah, the answer should be no.
35:12
Speaker 3: Because you can't force someone to speak. All right, David
35:18
Speaker 3: Brooks said that you know clearly preventing discrimination is more
35:26
Speaker 3: important than free speech, mind you. Number one, the guy
35:29
Speaker 3: works for the New York Times, so the New York
35:31
Speaker 3: Times is on record saying free speech is less important.
35:37
Speaker 3: He's the fake Conservative, so he especially believes free speech
35:40
Speaker 3: is less important. All right, I'll tell you what I
35:42
Speaker 3: want to pass the law that every time David Brooks speaks,
35:47
Speaker 3: he must publicly say I'm a dishonest, lying, imbecile that
35:51
Speaker 3: works for the propaganda outlet called the New York Times,
35:55
Speaker 3: and he should be okay with that, because it's just
35:58
Speaker 3: his free speech, and it's perfectly his free speech. Doesn't
36:01
Speaker 3: matter he told us that, so the government can force
36:05
Speaker 3: him to say, I'm assuming, well, maybe he does believe
36:08
Speaker 3: that he's allying propagandist, but i mean, given the benefit
36:14
Speaker 3: of the doubt, and assume that he doesn't believe that,
36:17
Speaker 3: should the government be able to force him to say that.
36:20
Speaker 3: And the point listen, it is altogether different if you take,
36:25
Speaker 3: for example, look, there was a prior case, the Colorado
36:29
Speaker 3: baker case. It was the same Colorado state law, where
36:32
Speaker 3: again the press mischaracterized it and they said, this is
36:36
Speaker 3: a baker that didn't want to serve people who were gay. Well,
36:39
Speaker 3: the baker there said that's not the case at all,
36:42
Speaker 3: that he served people are gay every day, that when
36:43
Speaker 3: people came in they wanted to buy a cake, he'd
36:45
Speaker 3: sell him a cake. He didn't care if they were gay, transgender, whatever,
36:48
Speaker 3: like if you'd sell a cake. He was in a
36:49
Speaker 3: cake buy a business, cake selling business. This was not
36:54
Speaker 3: a case about refusing to do their business, refusing service
37:00
Speaker 3: to someone because of their sexual identity. Rather, what the
37:03
Speaker 3: Colorado baker said is you had a gay couple that
37:07
Speaker 3: wanted to come in and have him design a wedding
37:09
Speaker 3: cake celebrating their same sex wedding. He was an evangelical Christian,
37:14
Speaker 3: and he said, look, my faith teaches me that's wrong.
37:18
Speaker 3: You can go get married, but I don't wish to speak.
37:21
Speaker 3: And he said baking a cake was expressive. Now, I
37:23
Speaker 3: gotta admit, I'm not much of a cook or baker.
37:25
Speaker 3: I didn't really think of baking as all that expressive,
37:28
Speaker 3: but he said, for.
37:28
Speaker 4: Him, it is when he does.
37:30
Speaker 3: When he designed a cake, he was speaking, and you
37:32
Speaker 3: could get Look if you were a baker, and let's
37:35
Speaker 3: say you're you're a Jewish baker, and someone comes in
37:38
Speaker 3: and says, well, you bake a Nazi cake with a
37:40
Speaker 3: swastik on it, that you ought to be able to say, no,
37:43
Speaker 3: I'm not going to I don't wish to convey that message, but.
37:49
Speaker 2: Or a Klansman cake or anything that goes against your beliefs.
37:53
Speaker 3: But the point is the Colorado baker didn't refuse service
37:58
Speaker 3: to people on the basis of their actuality. People could
38:01
Speaker 3: come in and gay and buy any cake they wanted.
38:03
Speaker 3: He was not going to speak and offer his voice
38:06
Speaker 3: in this instance. This website creator there's no indication she'd
38:12
Speaker 3: ever turned down her services to someone who was gay.
38:15
Speaker 3: If you had a gay couple who said, hey, we
38:17
Speaker 3: want to design a website about you know, the Colorado
38:22
Speaker 3: Mountains and the prettiest mountains, and we want to do
38:24
Speaker 3: a website, sure, she presumably would have said, sure, happy
38:27
Speaker 3: to do that, like, Okay, you're hiring me to design
38:29
Speaker 3: a website. Let's do this mountains, this side of this mountains,
38:32
Speaker 3: this side, let's put up pictures. It wasn't that she
38:34
Speaker 3: was refusing to do business with people who were gay.
38:37
Speaker 3: She's more than happy to do business. They were asking her,
38:42
Speaker 3: we want you to use your voice to speak a
38:46
Speaker 3: message that you disagree with and that your faith teaches
38:51
Speaker 3: you is wrong.
38:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, your religious beliefs going against your religious police.
38:56
Speaker 1: That's the core.
38:57
Speaker 3: That is fundamental that government cannot force you to speak,
39:02
Speaker 3: Which is why I use the example and to see
39:07
Speaker 3: the fake conservative of the New York Times happily say
39:10
Speaker 3: free speech doesn't matter, because all my left wing buddies
39:14
Speaker 3: tell me it doesn't matter.
39:15
Speaker 4: Yeah, it really is, sad.
39:17
Speaker 1: It's an interesting point.
39:18
Speaker 2: I want to also get the CDC real quick, because
39:20
Speaker 2: I think this is really important.
39:21
Speaker 1: Before we do that.
39:22
Speaker 2: Let me tell you about Patriot Mobile, the only conservative
39:25
Speaker 2: Christian cell phone provider in the country. You've probably got
39:28
Speaker 2: a cell phone and if you were just like me,
39:30
Speaker 2: where you're just done with woke companies. You're sick and
39:33
Speaker 2: tired of give in your money to companies actually not
39:36
Speaker 2: only disagree with your values, but are fighting against your values.
39:39
Speaker 2: That is why you need to switch to Patriot Mobile.
39:42
Speaker 2: Big Mobile has actually been giving millions and millions of
39:45
Speaker 2: dollars to woke leftist causes, including Planned parenthood. If you
39:49
Speaker 2: don't want your money going there, switch to Patriot Mobile.
39:52
Speaker 10: Now.
39:53
Speaker 2: They have nationwide coverage on all three major network tower systems,
39:56
Speaker 2: so you don't have to worry about coverage. You can
40:00
Speaker 2: keep your same cell phone, your same cell phone number
40:03
Speaker 2: if you want to, and switching is easy with one
40:06
Speaker 2: hundred percent US based call center. They can also help
40:10
Speaker 2: you with your business or your small business line. Switching
40:13
Speaker 2: all of those over and many times actually save you
40:15
Speaker 2: money every month. Now, when you pay your bill, this
40:18
Speaker 2: is where the magic happens. They take a portion of
40:20
Speaker 2: that bill no extra cost to you, and they give
40:23
Speaker 2: it to conservative causes and organizations that you want to support.
40:28
Speaker 2: We're talking about the First and Second Amendment. We're talking
40:30
Speaker 2: about protecting unborn children. We're talking about our veterans, our

Speaker 2: dot com slash verdict. There's something I want to bring up,
40:59
Speaker 2: and you and I were talking about this before the show.
41:01
Speaker 2: Center Biden has nominated a radical CDC director. You're trying
41:06
Speaker 2: to change how this nomination process works.
41:09
Speaker 1: Explain why.
41:10
Speaker 3: Well, look, we all learned during COVID that the head
41:12
Speaker 3: of CDC can have a massive impact on everyone's life
41:15
Speaker 3: in America. That it is an enormously important position. We
41:20
Speaker 3: saw CDC pushing for shutdowns and lockdowns all across the country,
41:24
Speaker 3: school shutdowns, mask mandates, vaccine mandates, impacting life and liberty
41:29
Speaker 3: and health of every American. And it is a massively
41:34
Speaker 3: important position. That there is a basic proposition in our
41:37
Speaker 3: constitution that positions that are very important, that impact the
41:43
Speaker 3: American people very significantly, should be subject to Senate confirmation. Historically,
41:49
Speaker 3: the CDC director has not been subject to Senate confirmation.
41:52
Speaker 3: So it's just someone that the President can appoint, that
41:54
Speaker 3: the Secretary of HHS can appoint, and CDC did not
41:58
Speaker 3: require Senate confirmation after COVID. I think everyone recognizes, Okay,
42:03
Speaker 3: this is big enough, it requires it, And in fact,
42:05
Speaker 3: Congress has passed a law that going forward, the CDC
42:11
Speaker 3: director will require Senate confirmation starting in January of twenty
42:16
Speaker 3: twenty five.
42:17
Speaker 2: So why they wait so long? Out of curiosity? People
42:19
Speaker 2: don't understand this in laws? I mean, it's annoying. Why
42:22
Speaker 2: not twenty four?
42:23
Speaker 3: Whoever wrote it in just wrote it? I assume wait
42:27
Speaker 3: till after Biden's presidency got it. But what it means?
42:30
Speaker 3: So Biden has named a woman named Mandy Cohen to
42:32
Speaker 3: be head of the CDC. She presumably will be the
42:35
Speaker 3: last head of the CDC if nothing changes, whoever takes
42:39
Speaker 3: that position without Senate confirmation, The next one after January
42:43
Speaker 3: of twenty twenty five will require Senate confirmation. I have
42:47
Speaker 3: introduced legislation. It's very simple. It makes Senate confirmation. The
42:51
Speaker 3: requirement immediate. It just moves the date forward from January
42:56
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five to now. And it would make Mandy
42:59
Speaker 3: Cohen so object to Senate confirmation. Why is that? Because
43:03
Speaker 3: her record is terrible. So, she was the head of
43:06
Speaker 3: the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, and
43:09
Speaker 3: she was one of the leading advocates of shutdowns, of lockdowns.
43:14
Speaker 3: She was an advocate of shutting down small businesses. She
43:17
Speaker 3: was an advocate of shutting down schools. She was an
43:21
Speaker 3: advocate of mask mandates. She was a total acolyte of
43:25
Speaker 3: doctor Fauci. She went so far as wearing a mask
43:28
Speaker 3: with doctor Fauci's face on it. I mean she's a
43:32
Speaker 3: fangirl for Anthony Fauci, quite literally. She's also a Democrat partisan.
43:37
Speaker 3: She's been a Democrat partisan her entire life. She's been
43:42
Speaker 3: very active. For example, in two thousand and nine, she
43:48
Speaker 3: was the national outreach director for Doctors for Obama. So
43:52
Speaker 3: this is a partisan Democrat. She also participated in the
43:56
Speaker 3: quote white coat rally supporting Obamacare at these I remember that. Yeah,
44:01
Speaker 3: So she is a partisan Democrat. You know, the CDC
44:05
Speaker 3: historically has been a relatively a political position that you
44:09
Speaker 3: should be. You put a respected scientist. This woman is
44:13
Speaker 3: a partisan Democrat who she shut down churches in North
44:20
Speaker 3: Carolina with much stricter rules than other places. So she
44:24
Speaker 3: had the hostility of Democrats towards churches because she didn't
44:28
Speaker 3: like churches and religious belief and she put much tougher
44:31
Speaker 3: rules than for any any other organization. And you know,
44:37
Speaker 3: I got to say the degree to which she just
44:40
Speaker 3: abused her power.
44:44
Speaker 4: Well, look, I'm actually gonna let you watch her.
44:48
Speaker 2: Tell you I'm laughing because you sent this to me
44:52
Speaker 2: earlier this week and it's brilliant, So go ahead.
44:56
Speaker 3: So I want you to watch this interview with Mandy
44:58
Speaker 3: Cohen where she described vibes just how cavalierly she approaches
45:04
Speaker 3: her abusive power.
45:05
Speaker 8: So I would call probably the person I called most
45:08
Speaker 8: was the Secretary of Health and Human Services in Massachusetts.
45:11
Speaker 8: She worked for a Republican governor just to but you
45:15
Speaker 8: know when she was like, are you are you gonna
45:17
Speaker 8: let them have professional football? And I was like nope,
45:21
Speaker 8: and She's like, okay, neither away, neither we. So you know,
45:26
Speaker 8: it was like conversations like that, so or I'd be like, so,
45:30
Speaker 8: when are you gonna think about widening up a mass
45:33
Speaker 8: or it's like next Monday. I'm like, okay, next Monday.
45:36
Speaker 3: So look, she's telling you that she would call the
45:39
Speaker 3: head of HHS in Massachusetts. By the way, North Carolina.
45:43
Speaker 3: I'm sure that people are thrilled to know North Carolina
45:46
Speaker 3: is taking their cues for Massachusetts, one of the most
45:49
Speaker 3: liberal states.
45:50
Speaker 4: In the country.
45:50
Speaker 3: Yeah, and listen to what she just said. So are
45:54
Speaker 3: you going to allow them to play professional football?
45:58
Speaker 2: Which is insane that elected official can even decide that.
46:02
Speaker 4: No, neither am I ha. She just laughs. I mean it.
46:08
Speaker 3: She doesn't care at all the imperiousness with which I
46:12
Speaker 3: am going to ban football. Who you are too, isn't
46:15
Speaker 3: it fun?
46:16
Speaker 4: Ha?
46:17
Speaker 3: And she says, also, when are you gonna lessen your
46:20
Speaker 3: your mask mandates? Oh, Monday, okay, I'll do it on
46:23
Speaker 3: Monday too. It is an accuture. How arbitrary By the way,
46:27
Speaker 3: the mass mandate was, It's made up, right, it.
46:29
Speaker 2: Was totally made up. It was like, all right, well,
46:30
Speaker 2: i'll release it. When you release it, let's synchronize it.
46:33
Speaker 2: Totally different parts of the country, totally different stats and
46:36
Speaker 2: dat at that point, I'm sure, totally different hospitization written
46:39
Speaker 2: numbers at that moment, different, I see you numbers.
46:41
Speaker 3: But this was politics on science. Politics. It's not science.
46:45
Speaker 3: It's purely politics. And you look at that and you
46:48
Speaker 3: see the contempt she holds the American people in. She
46:52
Speaker 3: believes she's an unaccountable philosopher king she'll dictate. Look, when
46:58
Speaker 3: was the last time you saw someone say, are you
47:01
Speaker 3: going to allow professional football?
47:04
Speaker 1: Yeah?
47:04
Speaker 3: And laugh about it, by the way, And it's why
47:07
Speaker 3: I say she needs to be subject to Senate confirmation.
47:10
Speaker 3: Let's make senators vote on her. Do you want that
47:13
Speaker 3: woman to have the power to ban football, which she's
47:16
Speaker 3: already done once and she laughs about it. And if
47:20
Speaker 3: you do, you know what, Joe Manchin, why don't you
47:23
Speaker 3: cast a vote and tell us you want to put
47:25
Speaker 3: her in charge of the next lockdown. You want to
47:27
Speaker 3: put her in charge of the next shutdown in schools
47:30
Speaker 3: that hurt school kids across the country. You want to
47:32
Speaker 3: put her in charge of illegal vaccine mandates. Let's put
47:36
Speaker 3: every senator on record.
47:38
Speaker 1: Great point.
47:38
Speaker 2: There's one more thing I want to play for everybody
47:41
Speaker 2: because you sent this and it's hilarious, and before we
47:45
Speaker 2: play it, because it deals with exactly this issue.
47:47
Speaker 1: Let me tell you about our friends of her Chalk.

48:59
Speaker 2: is this is pretty brilliant and people I think are
49:02
Speaker 2: gonna like it?
49:02
Speaker 3: All right, So this is a video I had my
49:04
Speaker 3: team put together and I talked about just how radical
49:07
Speaker 3: and extreme Mandy Cohen's record is. The corporate media doesn't
49:10
Speaker 3: want to cover, if they want to hide, if they
49:12
Speaker 3: want to bury it. It's also why they don't want
49:13
Speaker 3: to see her subject to Senate confirmation, because they want
49:16
Speaker 3: to put her in a position to be able to
49:17
Speaker 3: ban football and shut down schools and shut down your businesses.
49:20
Speaker 3: Once again, I don't want that to happen. So here
49:23
Speaker 3: is a lighthearted video that actually lays out what a
49:27
Speaker 3: real record is.
49:39
Speaker 9: See that don't make gussie.
49:50
Speaker 1: She is asking we.
49:55
Speaker 9: Lockdown's had a spirits love, didn't have a place to go,
50:04
Speaker 9: kids had down, so didn't learn a thing and felt
50:09
Speaker 9: she bought her keys.
50:13
Speaker 4: Many coming to a by.
50:18
Speaker 9: Drunk on Darren feeling.
50:22
Speaker 4: With another press Congress just follow the signe. She's gotta
50:27
Speaker 4: calls you best. And when she got the ship.
50:35
Speaker 9: She was the masking Queen was one of the coming of.
50:45
Speaker 5: Masking Queen.
50:47
Speaker 4: Feel the pain of man.
50:52
Speaker 1: Yeah it shap try loangasta. I can't see her. She's
51:06
Speaker 1: wearing a mask.
51:07
Speaker 9: She is.
51:11
Speaker 1: Dare I say I want more of these senator from
51:13
Speaker 1: the team.
51:14
Speaker 2: It is the perfect way of exposing who these people are,
51:19
Speaker 2: what they're all about, and using a little bit of
51:21
Speaker 2: humor to do it, because this is what people will
51:23
Speaker 2: send it around and go, Okay, I don't want this
51:26
Speaker 2: woman to be the CDC director, especially when she's crazy
51:28
Speaker 2: like this.
51:29
Speaker 3: That's her actual record, that's her with Fauci on the mask.
51:33
Speaker 3: She really is a fangirl to doctor Fauci. You saw
51:37
Speaker 3: the video over coming out to the press conference, She's
51:39
Speaker 3: not wearing her mask and then suddenly, like all good
51:42
Speaker 3: hypocretic Cara democrats, TV camera got to put a mask
51:46
Speaker 3: on for the TV camera. Has nothing to do with science,
51:48
Speaker 3: nothing to do with medicine, nothing to do with the virus,
51:50
Speaker 3: has everything to do with virtue signaling. And as she
51:53
Speaker 3: just lasts and shows you let's ban football because ha,
51:58
Speaker 3: I can every sense ought to vote my vote as hell. No,
52:02
Speaker 3: But there are a bunch of Democrat senators who are
52:04
Speaker 3: running in red states. I'd like to know what John
52:06
Speaker 3: Tester thinks in Montana. Does he want her to be
52:10
Speaker 3: able to shut down schools and ban football in Montana.
52:13
Speaker 3: I'd like to know what Joe Manchin thinks. I'd like
52:15
