  Speaker 1: The challenge from the home of the First Amendment. First
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: thing today.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Of course there is now if you're a Democrat, you
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: just vote for the right congressional candidate, or if you're
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: a conservative, you look for guys like my next guest,
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: who is perhaps one of the best legislators when it
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: comes to Second Amendment rights making sure that you have
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: the right to keep in bear arms, also understands that
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: keeping in bearing arms takes on a lot of different
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: ways and means.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: There he is.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Senator Bryce Reid, either of the Fredericksburg area or as
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I like to call it, fred Vegas. Bryce. Good to
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: hear from you, sir. How are you doing this morning?
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: Well, we're ready to go back to work on Monday
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: to the Capitol to try to finish up this thing.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Well, I thought, so, what was the vote Tuesday of
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: last week? Or no, I guess it was Monday of
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: last week on the conference report, Virginia teetering on the
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: verge of not being able to have a budget. The
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: deadline was coming up, all these things that weren't going
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: to be funded, and then all of a sudden, the
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: governor says, hey, how about we legalize marijuana and Louis
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Lucas drops her newly found opposition to data centers and
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: their tax breaks, and I bless them for not being
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: cute about it. But it could could What happened? Would
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: the Virginia budget be classified as anything more than a
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: drug deal?
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Well, if you look at it that way, you're probably right.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: I mean, Louise Lucas even has some budget language. And
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: for the listeners, the budget trump's normal legislation. So like
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: the marijuana recreational marijuana now is in the budget, it
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: failed during the normal budget, normal process where a bill
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: becomes a law. Typically we're not supposed to legislate in
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: the budget. Everybody complains about it, but until they threw
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: it into the budget, yeah, until they need to. But
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: the other thing is Louise Lucas has a little thing
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: in there that allows her to get out a jail
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: free card, at least at the state level. She's got
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: something in four point one that's sixteen oh four of
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: the code that basically says, can't be prosecuted if you're
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: doing you know, retail marijuana manufacturer da da da da
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: da da da. And you know this is after the fact.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it's in there. But you know, there's there's
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: so many things that are hidden in this budget. You know,
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: the governor has another ten positions, as she knows.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Well. Bryce, we were we were watching as the vote
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: happened live and it seemed like, you know, without bringing
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: these things up for debate. So you're saying, you guys
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: are going back in Monday, and now you'll be able
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: to pull out these line items like the the thirty
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: two thousand dollars raise for members of the General Assembly. No,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: we're not, Bryce, Yeah, I'm sorry you cut out that.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're we're not going to be able to take
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: out anything, Joe. We just have to take up the
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: governor's budget line item amendments. So that's all she has
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: actually do. So she's working over the weekend to send
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: us down actually by the end of the day today,
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: because it's forty eight hours recall, and we have to
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: have the thing done Monday. We go back in at
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: noon on Monday, so we should know this weekend what
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: her line item details or line item changes amendments are
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: going to be to the budget, and we'll take those
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: up on Monday. So but Monday is that the drop
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: dead day. We don't get a past Monday, we have
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: to start shutting the government down.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Well, you tell me of it, Yeah, talk about this
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: skinny budget because this happened as I understand it, well,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I remember one time. It happened during Glenn Youngkin's term
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: as Virginia governor because it was Democrats leading this House
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: and Senate, so they didn't want to give him anything,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: and he vetoed things. But you know, it's it is
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: a provision that you know, the state police aren't going
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: home and things like that aren't going to happen. Just
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: a lot of new stuff and a lot of programs
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: are going to lose their moneys.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Correct, right on a skinny budget. We fund the fundamental
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: elements of what the government should be done, you know,
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: the health, welfare, and safety. Right. Anything else is uh
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: you know, nice but not needed. And that's a skinny budget.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: But uh no, I think they'll come to resolution. You know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: you've had a lot of strong personalities sitting down trying
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: to figure out, uh, you know, whose boss And apparently
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: you know, this is a lastedch effort by Spendenberger to
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: uh to uh put her will out above them, and
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: I think she really has suffered narcissistic injury. Uh you know,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: Luis Lucas is uh somebody that plays tough, and uh,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I think Abigails Vamburger still hasn't found her sea legs.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: And when you've got the legislative branch who looks at
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: it and goes, well, you're out of here anyway. Uh,
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: you know, and they're in charge, and I think they
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: they've used their will and their members to prove to
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: her that she has little to no power and no friends.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: So uh, you know, when the Democrats are openly attacking
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: their own governor, that's not a good sign. It was,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: you know, well, Joe, I was just gonna say, just
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: remember everybody that's listening. They ran on affordability, and when
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: you look at the actual budget, they might say it is,
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: but we've joined Reggie. Uh oh, it's it's just ridiculous
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: the amount of bloke that's in this budget that we're
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: paying for. And they all want to blame it on Trump.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: Well it's not all blamed on Trump. Youngin left us
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: money to handle where Trump and the federal government were
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: taking some of the money's away for medicaid stuff. We
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: had that cupboard. But you know, I'd hate to see
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: them in their checkbooks and their accounts and their personal lives.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: They've got to be a wreck. I mean, there must
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: know credit card companies tons of money because we'll get
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: to a balanced budget, but it's going to be on
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: the backs of our taxpayers. And that's just not that's
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: just not right.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: Well, we've already started to see job losses, Companies, companies
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: that hadn't finished moving into Virginia changing their mind, Companies
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: that have been in Virginia since they were founded moving
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: to Georgia. Some of it because of the tax policy,
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: some of it because of the gun policies, these things,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: and that's an unfactored impact. Do you talk about a
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: budget that, I think, if my notes are correct, went
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: up ten percent. Nobody's salaries in Virginia except maybe the
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: other senators. You know, they voted themselves a pay raise,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: But nobody's spending in Virginia is going to go up
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: ten percent to match a budget that increased by ten percent.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: What are they doing with that extra money?
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Spending it?
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: But I mean are they spending it on roads in
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: all their little projects?
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you that when you start going through the
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: budget and everybody got their hand out and saying well,
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: we need a little more here here, here, and the
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: lobbyists are thickest thieves down there saying, you know, you
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: can go. And when you pull the budget, the book
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: itself is probably about an inch and a half. I'm
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: sitting here looking at it, and you start looking at
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: some of the spending on some of the reports. Six
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: hundred thousand here, five hundred thousand here, one hundred thousand here.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: You know, it starts adding up and next thing you know,
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: you've you've spent not just what you had, but you're
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: spending more like you know, offense exactly. I mean, it's
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: just it's just a ton of just I call it
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: fat in this this budget that they're just doing. You know,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: there's three hundred thousand dollars and for the Hampton Owns
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: trench and study. We studied that to death. Let's see.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: I mean total relief, a just appropriation, maintenance. I mean,
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: there's just all kinds of things in here we're actually funding,
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: we're actually gonna fund. I forget how much it is,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: which I thought was kind of funny. A few billion
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: dollars for a car show in DC to help get
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: people to come to the gain.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Well, you're gonna tear down the Richmond Coliseum. You're going
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: to pay for that.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: Hey, guys, I'm Teddy Savage, National League training for Planet
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: Fitness and the American Heart Association recommends that we all
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: get at least one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: aerobic activity in a week's time. But here's the thing
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: that one hundred and fifty minutes does not need to
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: be super intense. As a matter of fact, it could
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: just be you moving your body and doing what you
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: already love to do, like exercise. And a stronger heart
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: doesn't just mean cardio, right, it means also infusing your
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: workout routines with strength training as well. So we are
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: super excited to be launching our new plateloaded Strength series
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: and all of our gems. It's already fitted in seventeen
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: hundred locations, with the goal to have all twenty seven
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: hundred fitted by the end of twenty twenty five. So
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: if you need more information, go to our website at
• 9:44

  Speaker 4: and most of our gyms being open twenty four hours,
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: it's bound to be one close by.
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: You amaze your friends here at first thing today by
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: Joe Thomas visiting Virginia.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: Senator brys Or, who's been at the avant garde of
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: defending gun rights in the country, And we just had
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: a ruling in Virginia on one of the more draconian
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: gun bands that had been proposed in any of the states,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: even California. I thought what Grabagail Scamberger was trying to
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: do with the gun legislation was even extreme for Illinois
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: and New York maybe not New York. Bryce, am I
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: wrong in my characterization of some of these restrictions on
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: even transporting a legally owned firearm, never mind the things
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: that you're treating legitimate citizens as as criminals. But this
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: ruling puts it all on hold. Was to go into
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: effect on July one. Take us into that. Is it
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: good news or is it just you know, another week
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: to wait on the executioner's row.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: Well, let me I'll give you some hot information. Okay,
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: So that was great Lancaster came down, But really that
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: deals specifically with the state police and their enforcement of
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: those those laws. Senator Stanley yesterday morning, my seat mate,
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: who was also one of the attorneys that got the
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: redistrict ing. The lawsuit taking care of phenomenal attorney filed
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: down in Washington County before Judge Campbell another lawsuit, and
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: he expects it potentially even by this afternoon, maybe having
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: an adjunction that handles all of it. So once the
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: injunction's in place, right July first can come and go
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: to this runs. It's the process to going up to
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: the state Supreme Court, and I think it's going to
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: go to the Federal Supreme Court and they're gonna resolve it.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: So until that point comes, and a bunch of my
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: gun dealers, in fact that I went by one of
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: mine yesterday, and they're planning, you know, after July first.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: They haven't even ordered new weapons that are right now
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: legal will be that will be illegal after July first.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: They haven't ordered any new orders. So what they have
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: is what they have. And I will tell you I've
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: been to Green Top and a bunch of the other
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: places and they're just selling out. I'm going to get
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: the statistics at some point from the state police about
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: how many guns were sold because of what the Democrats
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: have done, and then we're going to get it all overturned.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: So now we're actually going to have probably ten times
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: more guns in Virginia that we're always gave before July first. Yeah,
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: and you know, even people who aren't necessarily Second Amendment
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: to a people, they don't want to lose a right.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: So I saw it yesterday battlef firearm. They were coming
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: in like, I just don't want to lose my right
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: and not have a grant, Like I don't want to
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: lose that. So night, I've never bought a pistol, but
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: I want to buy one, and they're, you know, they're
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: trying to tell him, Okay, well this is you know,
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: this is what it is. And so you've got people
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: buying guns that would have never bought a gun before
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: in their lives, but they just don't want to lose
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: that constans right, so they're buying a gun. Well, you know,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: maybe maybe the tide is turning on that issue.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: You and I have a mutual friend. He's a Wainsborough
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: City councilor, Jim Wood, one of the great gun you know,
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: safety trainers in the state. Uh, but he just opened
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: a gun store this year and I'm like, man, you
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: picked it. He goes, are you kidding? He said, grab
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: a Gail has been my best you know sales. You know,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: the visual of her as one of those like wavy
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: balloon dolls outside of a car dealership. He's like, I've
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: been so busy, I can't keep stock in because of
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: you know everything. Every time she opens her mouth about guns. Uh,
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: it drives more people into his stores. So his business
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: may actually survive because of this. But am I wrong
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: that what Virginia is trying to do with its gun
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: laws is more extreme than even places like Pennsylvania and
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: New Jersey and Illinois in terms of you know that
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: we're dealing with what a gun looks like now, not
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: what it actually does and that kind of stuff. It
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: seems like we've gone, you know, to here hold my
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: beer land with these gun laws.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Well, you are absolutely right. I mean, if you listen
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: to the majority leader Scott Servil during some of the
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: floor speeches, he was talking about a pistol with the telescope. Well,
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: they couldn't even tell you which side is the firing
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: side of a firearm. So you have people riding legislation
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: that know nothing about firearms, zero riding and making it up.
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: In a lot of attorneys that write the bactual bills
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: that they don't know anything about firearms, nomenclature, parts, how
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: they work, any of this stuff. You know, they don't
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: look to the ATF for guidance. They don't look at
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: anything else. They say, ooh, it's black and it's scary.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: You know, I've had a Dwalt battery charger. It might
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: look like a gun to some people. So we're gonna
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: ba my Dwalut battery charger now. But you know, I
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: just think it's not going to pull the muster. I think,
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: you know, people are buying these things left and right.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Gun manufacturers understand that Virginia's coming under the fire, so
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: they're trying to help our citizens here, trying to get like,
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: if you were a gun unless they come out of
• 15:30
  Speaker 3: state armory, they're going to try to overnight it to
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: your FFL because they know that timeline's coming up and
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: they want you to have that ability. So everybody, I think,
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: not just in the Commonwealth, but all these folks that
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: are supplying these things, are like, hey, let's try to
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: help these people out. You know, we want good guns
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: and good hands of good people. And well, I think
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: we're going to beat it. You know, I have a
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: lot of faith in my seat. Mate. I've been sitting
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: by the guy for fifteen years, and I'm telling you,
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: he's one of the finest attorneys I've ever met in
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: my life. And he's smart as a whip. And I
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: think he's going to win his injunction, and I think
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: he'll take it and argue in the Supreme Court. He's
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: done it once before under the Paula Jones case way
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: back when when he's a young attorney, and he's not
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: afraid to take it to him. So I think we
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: win that. I mean, you look at our Attorney general
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: to you know, two bullets Jones, and he had to
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: hire an outside firm from California to argue the Virginia Constitution.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: You would think he would He's a Virginian, he would
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: understand our own constitution. But no, he gets somebody from
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: California and they got it handed to him well hands down.
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: I know that former Attorney General Ken Kochinelli filed a
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: suit that got knocked out last week on the thirteenth hour.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: It's not an amendment, so I don't want to call
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: it that, but people know the Second Amendment, Virginia's version
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: of the Second amendment is actually part of Article one
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: of our constitution. We put our enumerated rights right up
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: front before we started saying what the government had a
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: right to do. And the Article thirteen is the is
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: what you would classify as the second Amendment our gun rights.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: How can somebody even write a law like what they're
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: trying to do in Virginia looking at that portion of
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: the Virginia Constitution.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: Well, they don't look at that portion, Joe. They just
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: write it. They don't look at the constitution. I look
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: at some of the bills that it came through. They're
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: just like, well, it sounds good. We can make this happen.
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: And it's direct violation of the constitution, and they don't
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: really look at it. And the lawyers that draft the
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: bills can tell them, hey, this is conflicts with federal
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: law or whatever. They don't care. They're going to carry
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: the bill and try to get it passed. I mean,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: I've seen it, I've watched it, and you bring up
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: those points and it's just like, well, we need to
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: do it because it's going to work and it's the
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: right thing. And you know, we're some of those House members.
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: I'm just telling you to their constituents. I feel really
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: bad for him because they hired some idiots. I mean,
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: you know, they it's that's just that's all I can say.
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: They're just a bunch of them are idiots.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Well, it's they care though, Bryce, That's the That's the
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: important thing in the left is that they well and
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: they by when I say care, they care about getting
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: themselves elected by saying whatever it takes h to get
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: them elected.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: There, So Monday, you guys are back there.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're taking affordability though they you know, all of
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: them are making life more affordable form themselves.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for themselves without question, you know. And and Tom
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Garrett was talking to me about it. You know, seven
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: percent for Reggie is going on to our electric bills.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Then our local governments are going to be able to
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: impose a new one percent tax on us. What is
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: I mean? If anything? I mean, it seems like what
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: I warned about at the onset is the only way
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: a Democrat knows to make something more affordable is to
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: subsidize it, which actually makes it less affordable. And it
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: seems like that's all through this budget.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: Bryce, Joe, You're right, You're one hundred percent right in
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: your predictions, and you know, maybe you need to do
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: the futures market. So is that polymarket marketing? Yeah?
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: You know, just I've listened to these people for so
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: long and because of guys like you. I mean, I
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: only know stuff because I know I know people.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: And Bryce Reeves is one of those people who's there.
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: I know there are folks who are really happy to
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: still have you in the Virginia Senate.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: And there are people who really wish you were in
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: the US Senate race. But we're going to go and
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: have a US Senate debate amongst the candidates who are
• 19:45
