  Speaker 3: And I want to get into a lot of things
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: happening today, right President Trump making a few very very
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: strong remarks today.
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: We're going to get to that.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: The Supreme Court hearing oral arguments on yet another case
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: of men playing in girls' sports.
• 1:00
  Speaker 5: We'll talk about that as well.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: And we've got the newest candidate for governor in Florida,
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: saying that he's going to create an OnlyFans tax. We'll
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: get to that a little bit later on. There's also Iran,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and I want to start with Iran because there's a
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: revolution of foot in Iran. Just yesterday, the death toll
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: in Iran was five hundred and forty four people that
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: were killed. There's not a war going on. It's the
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Malla's at war with the people. There's an uprising. They
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: said they don't want this anymore. They were inspired by
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: what happened in Venezuela, and now there's a full on
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: war between the people and the government. There's an internet
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: and media blackout on this. Why there's no internet. President
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Trump yesterday saying, Hey, I'm going to talk to Elon
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Musk and maybe get some internet over there, because it's
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: difficult for them to get anything out of the country
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: in terms of you know, they're doing whatever they feel
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: like it because nobody can pull out their cell phone
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: and show the government killing people. Well, anyway, yesterday five
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: hundred and forty four people killed. Today the numbers up
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: to two thousand, and that was a couple hours ago
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: when I checked. So things are very very rough in Iran.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: And President Trump weighing in on this, making it clear
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: to hold on. Help is on the way.
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: By the way, to all Iranian patriots, keep protesting, take
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: over your institutions if possible, and save the name of
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: the killers and the abusers that are abusing you. You're
• 2:27
  Speaker 6: being very badly abused. If the numbers are right. Now,
• 2:30
  Speaker 6: I hear five different sets of numbers. I hear numbers. Look,
• 2:33
  Speaker 6: one death is too much, but I hear much lower numbers.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: And then I hear much higher numbers. But I say
• 2:40
  Speaker 6: save their names because they'll pay a very big price.
• 2:44
  Speaker 6: Then I've canceled all meetings with the Iranian officials until
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: the senseless killing of protesters stops. And all I say
• 2:51
  Speaker 6: to them is help is on its way. You saw
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: that I put tariffs on anybody doing business with Iran,
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: just went into effect today, and I say, make a
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: Ran great again. You know, I was a great country
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: until these monsters came in and took it over. And
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: it's all very fragile. Who would have happened to us,
• 3:10
  Speaker 6: I'm telling you, if I didn't win this election, would
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: have happened to us.
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: He's one hundred percent right.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: If he didn't win this election, this country could be
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: in the similar situation right, in a similar situation. Now,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I want you to hear a report from one of
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: the Washington excuse me, New York Post staffers that wrote
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: this a little while ago, right a couple hours ago.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: It's Tuesday night. This is an eyewitness account from unnamed
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: New York Post reporter because I guess a staff piece.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: But it's put this way. As I write this, I've
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: just heard the news of another death, the fifth in
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: just a few days, within my close circle. This time
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: it was my close friend's cousin. He was at a
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: protest with his wife and wife and he saw green
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: light presumably from a gun laser that landed on her face.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: He thought of only protecting his wife. He stood in
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: front of her, and he was shot in the face
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: and killed immediately.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: God bless him. He's a hero.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Like so many of the dead, the regime is now
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: charging families bullet fees before they will return the bodies.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: His family had to pay five hundred million tomens that's
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: roughly five thousand US dollars to get his body back
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: so they could bury him today.
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: That's crazy.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: The final awfulness here is that in the official cause
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: of death. It says impact of a sharp object to
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: the face. They didn't write that he was shot by
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: the government, even after charging them the bullet fee. But
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: even amidst all this horror, there's a belief that this
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: time is different than other times when there's been uprisings.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Everyone believes that this time the regime will actually come
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: to an end. You can see it, you can feel it.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: The streets in tarant are filled with people shouting for
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: their rights and protesting against the regime. Thursday and Friday
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: of last week were unbelievable. We were protesting a lot.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: The crowd was beyond comprehension. It was so crowded it
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: shocked the police and the IRGC, the Revolutionary Guard. On
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: those days they fired tear gas and pepper spray and
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: sound bombs, so it looks like they're using sound bombs
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: too to scare people and break up the crowd. It
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: was frightening. But I also want to mention something that
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: was very meaningful to me. Despite the police and the
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: tear gas and pepper spray, people came out to protest
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: with their children. I saw pregnant women in the middle
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: of protesters who were shouting for their rights. Old men
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: and women who stood in the crowd too shouldered to
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: shoulder with the younger generation. People are suffering from the
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: situation no matter how old they are, and they all
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: want to say the same thing, regime change.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: But on Saturday everything changed.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: They brought anti terrorist police forces into the operation to
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: start suppressing them very forcefully and shooting protesters. This regime
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: is so ruthless and bloodthirsty that it's ready to kill
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: every want innocent people who are just walking and chanting.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: They shoot them with live ammunition and bullets. It's terrible,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: and they're completely unwilling to back down. I've heard that
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: the number of people they've killed is more than ten thousand.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: And then, of course, the ultimate cruelty, the families of
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: the people killed must pay bullet fees to the government
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: to receive their loved ones bodies. Five people around me
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: are now dead. It's heartbreaking. Three of them are my
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: cousin's friends, and two of them are the sons of
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: my mother's friends. They were killed on the streets of Tehran,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: all for protesting their inalienable right to freedom. Since this
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: repression has intensified on Saturday, a lot of the protests
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: aren't as crowded as they were before, but still we
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: Iranians are taking to the streets, even if it's terrifying.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: We've also been cut off from the world.
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: I can only see the news via a satellite when
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: it works. Otherwise there's a full blackout here. The ridiculous
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: thing as the police have started to enter people's homes
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: without permission to find out who's using satellite and they
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: collect the satellites from the roof. On Sunday, a message
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: came to my husband's phone saying that he'd been identified
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: as present at illegal protests in Satar Khan, which is
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: one of the neighborhoods there that was being monitored. The
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: message said that he should leave the protest side immediately
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: otherwise that you would be identified as a rioter. They
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: were out at the protest that it was very scary.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Being in the crowd makes you feel stronger and braver.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: Then last night on Monday, in a neighborhood called Punak,
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: they were using drones to identify people so they could
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: attack them. In general, the atmosphere of the city is
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: very strange. Almost all the shops are closed after five pm.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: For a city like Tehran, where most shops are open
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: until midnight. It's very unnerving, it's even scary. The city
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: is very unsafe, especially in the afternoon. My friend's brother
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: was returning home from work on Saturday. A group of
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: thugs wearing our military uniforms broke the windows of cars
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: that were sitting in traffic and attacked the drivers with machetes.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: His face and arms were injured while he was in
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: the operating room for hours after that.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: And this goes on and on. I'll leave you at
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: this thought here.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: The people of Iran have remained silent for years, despite
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: the severe harm that's been done to them, trying to
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: cope with the worst conditions and the most severe oppression.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: And I deeply hope that President Trump follows through on
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: his promise to support the people of Iran and help
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: dismantle this regime so that the Iranian people can once
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: again reach the position they truly deserve in this world.
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: And this position that they're talking about is liberty. They're
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: just looking for liberty. And it's amazing to me, it
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: really is. You know, I'm somebody that's never had to
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: fight to run my mouth. I've fought because I've run
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: my mouth. But I don't have to fight just to
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: run my mouth, right. We have liberty in order to
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: do the thing things that we want to do, that
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: we want to say.
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: It's America.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: It is really really something to see this going on,
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: to hear these social media accounts. That was an account
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: again in the New York Post from an eyewitness. But
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: I've got stuff that I'm looking at all day. All day,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: I've been looking at this stuff just blows me away.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: And these are just a couple of the videos that
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: I saw scrolling across social media in the last couple
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: of hours.
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: Because things are crazy.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: We went from five hundred and some dead people yesterday
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: to two thousand earlier this afternoon, to reports right now
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: as I'm doing this show of twelve thousand dead.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: I don't know if this is reliable.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: And President Trump even spoke about the unreliability of some
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: of these numbers a little bit earlier.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Either way, we got to.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: Get a handle on the numbers, and we've got to
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: figure out a way to stop this.
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: Iran is on my mind when I see the kind
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: of death that is happening over there. We think, so
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: we're going to get some accurate numbers I'll have over
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: about twenty minutes, we'll get some accurate numbers as to
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: what's happening with regard to the killing. The killing looks
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: like it's significant, but we don't know yet for certain.
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: I'll know within twenty minutes and relact accordingly.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: So President Trump again reiterating that we don't know how
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: many people have been killed, but the numbers that are
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: out there right now are something like twelve thousand. And
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at every outlet here, Fox, CNN. I've got
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: some audio of some of the protests.
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: Listen to this.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Yard, yo.
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: See First, let me just ask you on a personal note.
• 10:43
  Speaker 7: I still know you have family that is in Iran,
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: loved ones as well. With the communications blackout, have you
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: been able to connect with them? What are you hearing?
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: What are they telling you?
• 10:56
  Speaker 8: It's best weel Thank you for having me. It's been
• 11:00
  Speaker 8: a horrific few weeks for any Iranian anywhere in the world,
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: but particularly of course for the people inside the country
• 11:07
  Speaker 8: who are being met with war bullets simply for demanding
• 11:12
  Speaker 8: freedom and their most fundamental human rights. I have lost content.
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: FYI.
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: This is actress and activist Nazangnin Beyondi and she's on CNNs.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: I'm on Poor with Brianna Goladraga, go ahead.
• 11:33
  Speaker 8: Tact with loved ones and the distance. I've been in
• 11:37
  Speaker 8: touch with for several years now, and the last thing
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: I heard before losing contact about four days ago, before
• 11:46
  Speaker 8: the nationwide communications crackdown, which includes of course into internet
• 11:50
  Speaker 8: and phones, was we want any We basically are urging
• 11:56
  Speaker 8: the international community to use any powerful route approach necessary
• 12:04
  Speaker 8: to allow our voices to prevail for freedom and for
• 12:09
  Speaker 8: this regime to fall.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: A government that.
• 12:15
  Speaker 8: Thinks of itself as legitimate doesn't take away its citizens'
• 12:19
  Speaker 8: rights to communicate with each other in the outside world.
• 12:22
  Speaker 8: And so this blackout is very telling. They know they're
• 12:24
  Speaker 8: not a legitimate representation of the people, and yes they
• 12:28
  Speaker 8: are in their final days. It's unlike anything I've ever
• 12:31
  Speaker 8: seen in the two decades I've been doing this work.
• 12:35
  Speaker 8: It is millions of Iranians rising up across the country
• 12:39
  Speaker 8: and thousands being met with war.
• 12:44
  Speaker 9: And in a new piece for the New statesment you
• 12:47
  Speaker 9: right that this revolt right now poses the greatest existential
• 12:50
  Speaker 9: threat to the Iranian regime since the nineteen seventy nine revolution.
• 12:56
  Speaker 9: I've spoken to many experts as to the maker that
• 13:01
  Speaker 9: created this perfect storm for the regime, be it to
• 13:06
  Speaker 9: the twelve Day War with Israel, everything that transpired after
• 13:09
  Speaker 9: October seventh, the degradation of Iran's proxies, and of course
• 13:14
  Speaker 9: the Trump factor of it all.
• 13:17
  Speaker 8: There is no doubt that the president's words emboldened protesters
• 13:22
  Speaker 8: to take to the streets. I mean, when you think
• 13:24
  Speaker 8: that helps on its way, you more vocal about your
• 13:30
  Speaker 8: wants and your demands under a brutal dictatorship. That help
• 13:35
  Speaker 8: hasn't come yet. We're hoping that some form of international
• 13:39
  Speaker 8: assistance happened. What's important to note is an excellent piece
• 13:45
  Speaker 8: for The Atlantic, Cream Sajapur and Jack Goldstone highlighted that
• 13:51
  Speaker 8: the five conditions necessary for revolution are almost all met
• 13:56
  Speaker 8: at this point. In another piece, and fantastic piece by
• 14:02
  Speaker 8: Suzanne Maloney for The New York Times, she stresses that
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: what needs to happen at the very least is cyber
• 14:10
  Speaker 8: operation that targets Iran's critical military.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: And I'm going to stop it right there because she
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: said something really interesting, right, she said that helps, not
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: on the way. I think she doesn't realize that the
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: president has put those sanctions in place with the tariffs,
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: excuse me, twenty five percent, which likely will begin to
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: hurt the regime way harder than the sanctions happen.
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: Number one.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Number two, you also have this request that she just
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: put in. She said, what we need is a cyber
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: attack on Iran's military infrastructure. That sounds like something that
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: could be ordered up pretty quickly, right, kind of like
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: one of those sonic booms. It's even easier than Venezuela.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: I presume. Will it happen, I don't know, but I'll
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: keep you posted on everything that's going on. I want
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: to get into the Supreme Court. I want to get
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: into a bunch of things. But before I do, one
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: more clip on the bravery of these women in Iran.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: They're running around taking off their had jobs, they're taken off.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: In some cases, they're taking off their clothes to get
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: attention and to kind of fight back and say, hey,
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: you said I got to cover up, Well I'm going
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: to go buck naked.
• 15:10
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen anybody butt naked, but I have seen
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: some women in tank tops wearing signs saying f Kamani
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: and death to Kahmane. Wild stuff going on and exciting
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: at the same time.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Listen to this book.
• 15:23
  Speaker 10: About not only how brave Iranian women are, but how
• 15:27
  Speaker 10: funny they are in this process. And there is nothing
• 15:29
  Speaker 10: funny about what's happening right now in Iran. But to
• 15:32
  Speaker 10: still under oppression have comedic timing is incredible and it
• 15:36
  Speaker 10: reminds me that Iran hasn't been deprived of the world.
• 15:41
  Speaker 10: It's the rest of the world that has been deprived
• 15:43
  Speaker 10: of Iran. And I'll give you two examples. This young
• 15:45
  Speaker 10: woman here not wearing a hijab in front of a sign.
• 15:48
  Speaker 10: Now we've seen images like this before of protest before.
• 15:51
  Speaker 10: But what makes this one different and funny In the
• 15:54
  Speaker 10: example I'm giving is that is her pose showing off
• 15:57
  Speaker 10: her leg The regime already like and that's putting it lightly.
• 16:01
  Speaker 10: The regime doesn't like when you show your hair. Okay,
• 16:04
  Speaker 10: your hair now, obviously they want women covered. So the
• 16:06
  Speaker 10: fact that she's in this pose with a smirk, she
• 16:09
  Speaker 10: knows what she's doing and showing her skin vibe la,
• 16:12
  Speaker 10: oh my god. The regime is probably hyperventilating. This is
• 16:16
  Speaker 10: probably someone who is the funny one in her friend group,
• 16:19
  Speaker 10: the crazy one, outspoken one, and I want to be
• 16:21
  Speaker 10: friends with her. Now the second image here, This was
• 16:23
  Speaker 10: a video. It's of a woman, young lady, lighting up
• 16:26
  Speaker 10: a picture of Hamenae and then lighting up her cigarette afterwards.
• 16:31
  Speaker 10: I mean, that's hysterical. That's when resistance turns into art.
• 16:36
  Speaker 10: That's precision, and that's when sarcasm turns into survival and
• 16:40
  Speaker 10: humor used like this becomes power. And I'll say it again,
• 16:43
  Speaker 10: it's not Iranians that have been deprived of the rest
• 16:45
  Speaker 10: of the world. It's the rest of the world that
• 16:47
  Speaker 10: has been deprived of Iranians. The rest of the world
• 16:50
  Speaker 10: hasn't had a chance to truly understand the heart the
• 16:54
  Speaker 10: nature of Iranians. In Iran their hospitality, their warmth, their humor, food,
• 17:00
  Speaker 10: their music, they're poetry, their joy. When I talk about
• 17:03
  Speaker 10: their humor, it's like when my father is around other
• 17:05
  Speaker 10: Iranian men, it's like it's instant laughing right away. It's
• 17:09
  Speaker 10: like they're comedic timing. They're quick weighted, they're sharp raizor humor.
• 17:13
  Speaker 10: And when you see Iranian women protesting like this in
• 17:15
  Speaker 10: the face of fear with humor underneath, that is freedom,
• 17:20
  Speaker 10: refusing to wait for permission.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: These are a people after my own heart. The Iranian
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: women should I listen. I say that jokingly. I mean,
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: many of them are pretty attractive, but I will say this,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: I wish them God speat all of them.
• 17:33
  Speaker 5: Everybody deserves the liberty that we have in the United States.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: If they can get it, they can get their hands
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: on it, and God bless them anyway. Like I said,
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: more to come straight ahead, We're going to continue our
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: conversation Supreme Court oral arguments today on whether men can
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: play in women's sports yet again on a particular case
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: coming out of West Virginia that made its way to
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: the Supreme Court. Plus we've got Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton says,
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: f you to Congress. I'm not showing up. I don't
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: care what kind of subpoena you have on me. He
• 18:04
  Speaker 3: didn't show up on Tuesday today. And will his wife,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton show up tomorrow. Well, we're gonna find out
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: that's coming up as well. Plus we've got a lot
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: more to discuss. Eight seven seven Valdez one. If you
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: want to chime in, I'm Rich Valdez.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: This is America, This is America. He's got the best
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: head of hair and podcasting. This is America with Rich Valdez.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: All right, every he goes welcome back and the chairman
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: of the House Overside Committee who subpoena former President Bill
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Clinton to come in to talk about his involvement with
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: Epstein and how they could shed some light on that. Well,
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: he gave a press conference to it because Bill Clinton said,
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: I am obfuscating the Oversight hearing. I am not showing up,
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: I am flipping you the bird, I am dissing you.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: I'm not showing up, and he just straight ghosted the committee.
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: Listen to Chairman James Comer as he weighed in on this.
• 19:17
  Speaker 11: Well, I think everyone knows by now Bill Clinton did
• 19:20
  Speaker 11: not show up. And I think it's important to note
• 19:23
  Speaker 11: that this subpoena was voted on in a bipartisan manner
• 19:28
  Speaker 11: by this committee. This wasn't something that I just issued
• 19:32
  Speaker 11: as chairman of the committee. This was voted on by
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: the entire committee in a unanimous vote of the House
• 19:38
  Speaker 11: Oversight Committee to subpoena former President Clinton and former six
• 19:43
  Speaker 11: A State Hillary Clinton. Now, Hillary Clinton supposed to show
• 19:45
  Speaker 11: up tomorrow. We'll see what happens there. But with respect
• 19:48
  Speaker 11: to the former president, he did not show up today.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Do you think, mister chairman, And he's not here with
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: me obviously, I've had a chance. Do you think Hillary
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Clinton's going to show up? If Bill Clinton didn't show up,
• 20:01
  Speaker 3: if his lawyers said, yeah, these things are unenforceable, we're
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: not going That's pretty much what his legal team said,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Why on earth do you think he'd show up.
• 20:09
  Speaker 5: I don't think he's going to show up.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: I think the only time you've ever seen a president
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: show up at a congressional hearing is when Kevin Spacey,
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: who was the president and then I think became the
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: vice president, some crazy act on the TV show House
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: of Cards, showed up in a congressional hearing. That's the
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: only time that's ever happened that I can imagine. Right,
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: you think Trump's ever showing up? Maybe he will because
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: he wants the headlines and he likes to troll him.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: But he's not going anywhere any former president. They're not
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: doing anything they don't want to do. In my opinion,
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: go ahead.
• 20:36
  Speaker 11: One reason I think most Americans won't President Clinton to
• 20:39
  Speaker 11: answer some questions who are is because he visited the
• 20:44
  Speaker 11: White House. Jeffrey Epstein visited the White House seventeen times
• 20:48
  Speaker 11: while Bill Clinton was president. I've been in Congress nine years.
• 20:51
  Speaker 11: I think i've been to the White House nine times,
• 20:53
  Speaker 11: and nine years Epstein was in the White House, double
• 20:57
  Speaker 11: the amount of time than I was under one resident.
• 21:01
  Speaker 11: And then we know that Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's
• 21:04
  Speaker 11: playing somewhere around twenty seven times after the presidency. So
• 21:09
  Speaker 11: no one's accusing Bill Clinton of any wrongdoing. We just
• 21:13
  Speaker 11: have questions. And that's why the Democrats voted along with
• 21:15
  Speaker 11: Republicans to subpoena Bill Clinton. Not a single Democrats showed
• 21:20
  Speaker 11: up today. Not a single Democrat, the ones that have
• 21:24
  Speaker 11: press conferences on the Capitol staffs and talk about how
• 21:26
  Speaker 11: they're trying to get justice for the victims and all that,
• 21:30
  Speaker 11: it just seems like they only care about questioning Republicans.
• 21:35
  Speaker 11: And we've had We've had a former Trump Cabinet Secretary
• 21:39
  Speaker 11: of Costa in for a grilling. We had Bill Barr,
• 21:43
  Speaker 11: former Attorney General, in for a grilling. But for whatever reason,
• 21:48
  Speaker 11: President Clinton didn't show up, and the Democrats on the
• 21:50
  Speaker 11: committee don't seem to have a problem. This is the
• 21:54
  Speaker 11: amount of preparation that went into this deposition.
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: He's binderies were the.
• 21:58
  Speaker 11: Questions that we were to ask. We've communicated with President
• 22:02
  Speaker 11: Clinton's legal team for months now, given them opportunity after
• 22:08
  Speaker 11: opportunity to come in to give us a day, and
• 22:12
  Speaker 11: they continue to delay, delay, delay, to the point where
• 22:16
  Speaker 11: we had no idea whether they're going to show up
• 22:17
  Speaker 11: today or not. I think it's very disappointing. As a
• 22:21
  Speaker 11: result of Bill Clinton not showing up for his lawful subpoena,
• 22:25
  Speaker 11: which again was voted on it unanimously by the committee
• 22:28
  Speaker 11: in a bipartisan matter, we will move next week in
• 22:31
  Speaker 11: the House Oversight Committee mark up to hold former President
• 22:35
  Speaker 11: Clinton in contempt of Congress.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: So, yeah, is that going to happen? Will he be
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: treated like Peter Navarro?
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: Will he be treated like Bannon, like these others that
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: went to jail for their contempt of Congress.
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: Because they said they had presidential immunity.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: He's going to say the same thing, right, He's going
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: to say, well, well I was the president.
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: Does it make a difference. I don't know.
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: I think in real life we ought to know better
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: than to subpoena former president, right. I think we have
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: to take these things to consideration. Clinton was an extraordinarily
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: popular president too, So I'm sure he's going to release
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: a statement there something and just say, yeah, didn't know nothing, well,
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: he actually basically already did that, right, He said he
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: didn't know nothing, and now his legal team said, this
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: thing's unenforceable.
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: So pretty much, go pound salt if you that's what's
• 23:26
  Speaker 5: going on there.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: But in other news, we've got some news coming out
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: of the Supreme Court. Yeah, that's interesting. The battle over
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: men in women's sports continues. And this is a doozy.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: This is I feel like the gift that keeps on giving, right,
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: It kind of doesn't end no matter what you do,
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: where you go, there's always going to be a case
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: somewhere making its way to the Supreme Court.
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: Fascinating stuff. Listen to this.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: This is Justice Alito exercising his extraordinary legal prowess over
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: an ACLU lawyer.
• 24:02
  Speaker 12: Check this out, Yes, your honor, If it does that,
• 24:06
  Speaker 12: then is it not necessary for there to be for
• 24:10
  Speaker 12: equal protection purposes? If that is challenged under the equal
• 24:13
  Speaker 12: protection clause, an understanding of what it means to be
• 24:17
  Speaker 12: a boy or a girl, or a man or a woman? Yes,
• 24:20
  Speaker 12: your honor, And what is that definition for equal protection purposes?
• 24:24
  Speaker 12: What does what does it mean to be a boy
• 24:27
  Speaker 12: or a girl, or a man or a woman?
• 24:29
  Speaker 13: Sorry, im a centers to your question, I think that
• 24:30
  Speaker 13: the underlying enactment, whatever it was, the policy, the law,
• 24:33
  Speaker 13: the would have to we'd have to have an understanding
• 24:35
  Speaker 13: of how the state or the government was just understanding
• 24:39
  Speaker 13: that term to figure out whether or not someone was excluded.
• 24:41
  Speaker 13: We do not have a definition for the court, and
• 24:44
  Speaker 13: we don't take issue with the We're not disputing the
• 24:46
  Speaker 13: definition here. What we're saying is that the way it
• 24:48
  Speaker 13: applies in practice is to exclude birth sex males categorically
• 24:52
  Speaker 13: from women's teams, and that there's a subset of those
• 24:54
  Speaker 13: birth sex males where it doesn't make sense to do
• 24:56
  Speaker 13: so according to the state's own interest.
• 25:01
  Speaker 12: If it does that, then well, how can a court
• 25:05
  Speaker 12: determine whether there's a discrimination on the basis of sex
• 25:10
  Speaker 12: without knowing what sex means for equal protection purposes?
• 25:14
  Speaker 13: I think here we just know that we basically know
• 25:17
  Speaker 13: that the that they've identified, pursuing to their own statue, Lindsay,
• 25:21
  Speaker 13: qualifies as a birth sex male, and she's being excluded
• 25:24
  Speaker 13: categorically from the women's teams as the statute. So we're
• 25:27
  Speaker 13: taking the statues's definitions as we find them, and we
• 25:30
  Speaker 13: don't dispute them.
• 25:30
  Speaker 14: We're just.
• 25:32
  Speaker 5: How's that for logic? Right, logic? Always biting them in
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: the butt.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: She got so nervous, she was stuttering and everything, stammering.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: I should say, man, interesting stuff.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: Again.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: This is the Supreme Court oral arguments today Tuesday, that
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: were earlier today ten o'clock in the morning Eastern time.
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: You had two cases going on Little versus Haycocks and
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: West Virginia versus BPJ that could, in essence determine the
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: fate of these state bands in those states and likely
• 26:01
  Speaker 3: all others because it's a Supreme Court on transgender athletes
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: in women's sports across the country. Now, the arguments in
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: the West Virginia versus VPJ were scheduled from eleven to noon.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Those centered on whether laws limiting women's sports participation based
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: on biological sex violate equal protection.
• 26:21
  Speaker 5: And that's what we just heard.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: And that was again the Justice Alito asking the lawyer
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: from the ACLU, how do you do that? How do
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: you define that if you can't define sex? And she said, well,
• 26:32
  Speaker 3: we just take it at the state's definition. But I
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: think that premise negates itself. I think he raised a
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: very interesting point. So I'll keep you up to speed
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: on this stuff that's going on, and maybe we'll call
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Sarah Parshal Perry from Parents Defending Education, whose former civil
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: rights attorney for the United States Department of Education and
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: VP at the Heritage Foundation. She always has her finger
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: on the pulse of the things. I just double duty today.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: I had a show in Philly from three to six
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: pm that you know, took a lot of my prep time.
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: So not that I didn't want to do it. I
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: love doing radio, but you know, twice as nice. So anyway,
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: that's the story with that. Now, will this pass? Will
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: it not pass? I don't know what to tell you there. Honestly,
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: I don't have the answer to that one. My prediction
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: is that hopefully it won't, you know, it won't continue
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: these these state laws, and it will ban these state laws,
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: and that we can once again return to a normal
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: sea where boys are boys and girls are girls, and
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: should they choose once they're eighteen, once they're adults to
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: make these changes. Then that's fine, these arguments over boys
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: in girls' sports, and again at the adult level as well. Right,
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: if you're an adult and you want to identify as
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: a woman, that's on you. But then you have to
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: go to the appropriate place. You can't have testosterone A
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: fifteen hundred and try to compete against girls. It's not
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: fair and honestly for the women, it's just not safe.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: And we've seen that time and again. Another thing that's
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: probably going to face legal scrutiny. President Trump making an
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: announcement there will be no payments. All payments to sanctuary
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: cities will be halted immediately.
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: Listen to this.
• 28:27
  Speaker 6: Additionally, starting February first, we're not making any payments to
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: sanctuary cities or states having sanctuary cities because they do
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: everything possible to protect criminals at the expense of American
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: citizens and it breeds fraud and crime.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: And all of the other problems that come.
• 28:43
  Speaker 6: So we're not making any payment to anybody that supports
• 28:47
  Speaker 6: sanctuary series.
• 28:51
  Speaker 5: Well, I say kudos to President Trump.
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: Now, I know they're going to sue them, and they're
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: gonna say, look, you can't do that because that has
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: to go through Congress, this, that, and the other.
• 28:58
  Speaker 5: And maybe they'll win on that. Honestly, who knows.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: He's probably going to say no, I'm talking about the
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: federal funds that we've allocated, and we're going to do
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: it through the executive branch, etc.
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: Etc.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: Or he'll go ahead sue me and you know, write
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: it out. Bottom line here is he's playing tough and
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: you gotta play tough. And you know where I stand
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: with this. I say we need to sue every single
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: one of these states. We need a class action or
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: a Supreme Court action where we bring the question of
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: can a state just claim they're a sanctuary city in
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: state under the law. Can they say that they are
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: a sanctuary from the federal law?
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Mark levin Is for years made the case that we
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: should all become sanctuaries from the Second Amendment bands that
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: are all over the place and everybody's just walk around
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: constitutional carry.
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: You can't say that we can't have guns in this state. Right,
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: some states are where you're not allowed to have guns.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: To say, hey, no, we're a sanctuary state. It from
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: the laws of the state, same way they say they're
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: shielded from the laws of the federal government. So far
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: as it's fake, it's phony, it's fraud. We need to
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: push back. We need to push back hard anyway. That's
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: my thought on that. And speaking of sanctuary cities, this
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: is a good one. There's a new nick Shirley video
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: that blows the lid off even more fraud. I uh,
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: I'm not surprised, but it is uh, it is a
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: juicy Listen to this.
• 30:29
  Speaker 15: Hello, we'd like to ask where the money's going? What
• 30:33
  Speaker 15: do you guys think about the fraud that's taking place
• 30:34
  Speaker 15: here in Minnesota.
• 30:36
  Speaker 14: I don't think anybody is enabling FAD to.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Have a hold.
• 30:38
  Speaker 5: Governor Rolls accountable for this.
• 30:40
  Speaker 14: What was this money spent out? One point six million?
• 30:44
  Speaker 14: What was that money sprad without during any kids?
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: Answer the question?
• 30:47
  Speaker 13: Are their children?
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: There's no children inside this building.
• 30:51
  Speaker 15: Potentially the largest fraud scandal in US history is taking
• 30:54
  Speaker 15: place in Minnesota, as literally billions of dollars have been
• 30:58
  Speaker 15: funneled through Somali ray and fraudulent businesses. So much fraud
• 31:03
  Speaker 15: it could actually almost replace the entire GDP of Somalia.
• 31:07
  Speaker 15: These fraudsters have worked hand in hand with the Minnesota
• 31:10
  Speaker 15: government as they enabled billions of dollars to be given
• 31:13
  Speaker 15: to fraudulent businesses underneath welfare purposes. Some of this money
• 31:17
  Speaker 15: eventually landed in the hands of terrorist groups in Somalia
• 31:21
  Speaker 15: like the Al Shabab and others, enrich themselves all at
• 31:24
  Speaker 15: the US taxpayers expense, and in this video, we will
• 31:27
  Speaker 15: break down all of the fraud from start to finish,
• 31:30
  Speaker 15: from going to the fraudulent businesses and confronting the people
• 31:33
  Speaker 15: who are making millions of dollars from the government, and
• 31:37
  Speaker 15: we will also be confronting the incoonfident government leaders who
• 31:40
  Speaker 15: let this fraud happen. And to make this happen, I
• 31:42
  Speaker 15: met up with a man who's been doing his own
• 31:44
  Speaker 15: investigation for years now as he has seen the fraud firsthand.
• 31:48
  Speaker 15: His name is David. Let's get into this and be
• 31:51
  Speaker 15: prepared to be shocked.
• 31:53
  Speaker 14: So I've been researching this issue of fraud, and most
• 32:00
  Speaker 14: specifically Somali fraud because it is so gargantuan, for the
• 32:04
  Speaker 14: past seven years. Many of you are familiar with the
• 32:07
  Speaker 14: video that Nick Shirley and I made. We have a
• 32:10
  Speaker 14: second video that's coming out Monday that is ten times
• 32:13
  Speaker 14: worse than the original video. It's going to be pretty
• 32:16
  Speaker 14: shocking and it's pretty graphic. So what I have here
• 32:22
  Speaker 14: is a five year recap of all of the sea
• 32:25
  Speaker 14: CAP money that's childcare assistance payments for the last five years.
• 32:32
  Speaker 14: The top one hundred and two recipients of that eighty
• 32:36
  Speaker 14: four of them are Somali owned. You know how many
• 32:38
  Speaker 14: children I've seen at those childcare centers over the last
• 32:41
  Speaker 14: seven years. Zero, not one. There's another pile of money
• 32:47
  Speaker 14: and it's called Great Start, and that money is given
• 32:50
  Speaker 14: to the facility to train their staff. Well, if you
• 32:53
  Speaker 14: don't have any kids, you don't need any staff. Then
• 32:56
  Speaker 14: what I believe is the core of all this, Excuse me,
• 32:59
  Speaker 14: the core of all this is this non emergency medical transportation.
• 33:04
  Speaker 14: So a search show that Minnesota recognizes oneenty twenty NMT companies,
• 33:11
  Speaker 14: almost nine hundred of them are smallly owned. So in
• 33:15
  Speaker 14: the second video, Nick Suerlan, I went to sixteen of them.
• 33:18
  Speaker 14: I've actually been about seventy of them. They don't exist.
• 33:24
  Speaker 14: They're in an apartment building. One of them's a liquor store,
• 33:26
  Speaker 14: another one's a wire transfer, another one is something totally
• 33:32
  Speaker 14: it's a grocery store. There are no vehicles, and the
• 33:36
  Speaker 14: average NEMT company in the United States has twenty vehicles,
• 33:39
  Speaker 14: and each vehicle generates about seventy thousand dollars a year.
• 33:42
  Speaker 14: So you take you run those numbers. Eight hundred companies,
• 33:46
  Speaker 14: twenty vehicles, seventy thousand dollars a year, and it's an
• 33:50
  Speaker 14: enormous sum of money that's going out. So my feeling
• 33:54
  Speaker 14: is that chasing the money transfers and the wires and
• 33:57
  Speaker 14: the stars is great, but you got to like Batman
• 34:01
  Speaker 14: on Minnesota DHS because they're the ones who are writing
• 34:05
  Speaker 14: the checks. They're the ones allowing the fraud to happen. Look,
• 34:09
  Speaker 14: you can blame the Somali's, but if you stick your
• 34:11
  Speaker 14: hand out someone puts one hundred dollars in it, you're
• 34:14
  Speaker 14: gonna stick your hand out again and keep The people
• 34:16
  Speaker 14: who are putting one hundred dollars in have got to
• 34:18
  Speaker 14: stop doing it. They've got to get out of their
• 34:20
  Speaker 14: office and go out and look at these facilities and say,
• 34:22
  Speaker 14: this is an apartment building. You can't have a transportation
• 34:25
  Speaker 14: company to purpley and the vast majority of these companies
• 34:29
  Speaker 14: exist on paper only they're not real. They have no assets,
• 34:32
  Speaker 14: no office, and no vehicles.
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: Now, just the other day we heard Governor Tim Wallas saying,
• 34:39
  Speaker 3: we've got to meet these people where they are. We've
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: got to make it easier for them to get this
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: type of access to care and let them get paid
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: in doing it.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: So, people who are taking care of their parents living
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: with their parents. The Sandwich generation, if you will. I,
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: for example, was part of the Sandwich generation and never
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: got a dollar from the government to take care of
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: my dad. And it was happening in New York, and
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: I used to get jelly. I used to say, Oh,
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: my goodness, how is it that people who are staying
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: home taking care of their parents or a sick loved,
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: one elderly parent, whatever it.
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: Is, one sick parent.
• 35:13
  Speaker 3: In New York, they were had commercials on TV saying, hey,
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: if you're a home taking care of your parents. Because
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: I was in Jersey, I was like, hey, what's going
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: on here?
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: No.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: I didn't necessarily want to be paid by the government,
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: but I did have to quit my job in order
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: to be there for my dad. Now, is that the
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: government's problem? No, that was my own family problem. But
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: the bottom line was, if there is a social safety
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: net for moments such as these, right, I was trying
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: to prevent my dad from going into a home and
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: from him becoming part of the dependence crowd on the
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: government dole. It's just fascinating to see how this whole
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: system works. It reminds me of what happened during COVID
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: During COVID. There were people buying, purchasing, selling, transporting PPE
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: that didn't exist. There was one company from China, I
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: think it was called Happy Face LLC or Happy Time LLC.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: And they got something to the tune of nine million
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: dollars for PPE that they never got. They were just
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: given money by the government for this PPE that they
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: never distributed and never transported and never owned and never
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: did anything.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: Just kept the money. What a happy time.
• 36:37
  Speaker 3: These people are doing the same thing with these non
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: emergency medical transport businesses.
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: Really, this is really something.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: And according to this one article I'm looking at here
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: PG Media by Rick Moran, this is just a tip
• 36:53
  Speaker 3: of the iceberg.
• 36:55
  Speaker 5: They're saying, you're not going to.
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: Believe the amount of fraud and waste that's coming out
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: of these social safety.
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: And progress wild stuff.
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: Right, And we all thought there was fraud and government,
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: But imagine that maybe we can pay off our deficit
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: by just stopping fraud. Maybe we wouldn't have such a
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: deficit if we didn't spend so much on the fraud.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: Unbelievable.
• 37:22
  Speaker 3: Veronique Derugi, she's a senior research fellow at the Mercatas
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: Center at the George Mason University and a contributing editor
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: at Reason dot Com. Spent her entire career as a
• 37:33
  Speaker 3: voice crying in the wilderness, trying to get Congress and
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: opinion makers, as well as citizens, to pay attention to
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: the extraordinary lax oversight of most of the government spending
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: that we see. Well, now you got this Minnesota Medicaid
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: fraud scandal, the daycare scandal, all sorts of scandals coming
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: out of Minnesota, and this might be it. This might
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: be the tipping point that we'll convince that the important
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: parties involved here to get serious about protecting taxpayer dollars.
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah. I think that's really well put. Here's a quote.
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: The outrage is justified because Americans are finally getting a
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: concrete look at what happens when pushing public money out
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: the door matters more than verifying the eligibility of the recipients,
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: confirming the services were delivered, or ultimately being a good
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: steward of taxpayer dollars, writes Deruji. Now, federal prosecutors of
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: Minnesota are suggesting that up to half of the eighteen
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: billion dollars spent on fourteen Medicaid funded Minnesota programs since
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: twenty eighteen have been tied to fraud nine billion dollars
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: of government money, which is really your money, right, it's
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: tax money.
• 38:44
  Speaker 5: That's crazy. A billion dollars here, a billion dollars there.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: Pretty soon you're talking about a serious, a serious, serious
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: problem that is in an accident.
• 38:58
  Speaker 5: This is real money.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: And the article asserts, and they're right, goes on and say,
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: we've been so injured, so numb by the gargantuan amount
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: of government spending that goes out the door in Washington,
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: that these figures just don't seem real. It's criminally negligent.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: This is very interesting stuff, all right. I think President
• 39:26
  Speaker 3: Trump should say.
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: Elon, how are you elon? Happy New Year? Could you
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: come and do some auditing, a.
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: Little doge, a little doge action in Minnesota, right, that
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: would be great. And maybe they can have the candidate
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: for governor, Mike Lindell, you know, be like an honorary
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: chair of this thing, because he was great at tracking
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: things down as well.
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: In twenty twenty.
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: Anyway, this stuff is just fascinating to me, fascinating that
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: we have all these interesting things going on, and another
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: video that's going to be coming out, and I, for one,
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: I think This is great. I think this is good stuff.
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: The more the merrier, It's important that we focus on this.
• 40:16
  Speaker 3: And who cares what il han Omar has to say?
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: Who cares what Jacob fry Fray has to say? Who
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: cares what Tim Wallas has to say? These guys are
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: all going to cry foul, They're all going to keep crying.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: And what is going on in Minnesota? What is up
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: with the people there?
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: You know?
• 40:30
  Speaker 3: I always thought that it was like New York City,
• 40:32
  Speaker 3: Greenwich Village, the crazy lefties that are in New York
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: City and California, and then of course you got a
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: handful of crazies in Chicago, right. But I didn't know
• 40:42
  Speaker 3: there were these crazy lefties absolutely everywhere. I didn't think
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: Minnesota was filled to the brim with crazy lefties. I
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: didn't how did that happen? Are there any Are there
• 40:54
  Speaker 3: any normal people in Minnesota? I know, obviously there are,
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: but I had no idea that there their leftism problem
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: was as severe as it is.
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: This is crazy.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: I was watching a video a little while ago, yet
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: another woman taunting the police with her car. This time
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: they're able to successfully pull her out of the car.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: She does try to get away he says, hey, get out,
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: grabs the door, Her friends and everybody go, go, go go,
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: And she starts to go, but there's like another police
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: car in front her.
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: She can't go anywhere.
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: And if she keeps going, she's going to pin the
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: cup between her car and the car that is wedged
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: in front of her to prevent her from going any further.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: What does she think this guy is going to do
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: with her open window even if it wasn't open, but
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: her window's open and he's right next to her. If
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: she keeps hitting the gas, she's going to crush this guy.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: You think he's gonna tickle her? You think he's going
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: to say could you please stop? Or do you think
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: he's gonna fill her up with lead? I would opt
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: for he's going to defend himself and fill her up with.
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: Thankfully, they were able to get in.
• 42:03
  Speaker 3: Three four different cops from every door of that vehicle
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: got in. We were able to put her car in park,
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: grab the key, grab her and get her out. And
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: then she says, I'm disabled. Now I'm not laughing because
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: she's disabled. I'm laughing because you've got to be kidding me.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: After you do all of that, and you attack the police,
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: nearly pinning them with your car, and now you're gonna
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: be like, oh, hold on, I'm disabled. There's a lot
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: of bleeps in this, but I'm gonna play a little
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: bit of it. Maybe you can decipher what's going on.
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: If not, I'll stop it, because sometimes it's hard to
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: keep up with all of the craziness in these videos
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: when you can only hear them, not see them. Check
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: this out, Minnesota. That's the police blowing whistles. Now got
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: her out of the car. She's on the floor. They
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: pick her.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: Up there it is.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: She's like, I've been beat up by the police before.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: I'm disabled. That's why I got in the car and
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: I had to move the car door. The car window
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: was open the entire time. When he's yelling you've got
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: she could have yelled when she just yelled right now
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: when she was sitting in the car and he was
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: like get over here to stop or don't go here,
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: or whatever whatever command he gave her, and she didn't
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: say anything.
• 43:39
  Speaker 5: She was just like whatever, honking her horn.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: She could have just sad, excuse me, I have a
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: disability and I have to be able to go, and
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: they could have worked something out right probably would have
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: directed her traffic to get her out of there safely.
• 43:52
  Speaker 3: But instead she's lying. Right, she's lying. And if she
• 43:57
  Speaker 3: was withholding her disability and using it as an ace
• 44:01
  Speaker 3: in the hole to say, I'm gonna go do what
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: I want and when they get me, I'm going to say,
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: oh no, I'm disabled, because I really am.
• 44:06
  Speaker 5: Because she really has a disability.
• 44:07
  Speaker 3: ID card, or maybe in fact she does have disability.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: She's playing with her life, She's playing with her health.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: Not a good idea, very very stupid thing to do.
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: This is the type of stupid that's coming out of Minnesota.
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: I gotta tell you what is going on in the
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: Twin cities. Who man anyway, shout out to all the
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: faithful and intelligent and loyal patriots out of Minnesota.
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: I'm just messing with you, guys. I know that there's.
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: Normal people there too, but these people really seem to
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: be off their rocker and they're all in the same place.
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: Anyway. There is more to come. Straight ahead.
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: We're going to talk about something happened a few days
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: ago that I just didn't get a chance to get
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: to yet, about the new food pyramid.
• 44:53
  Speaker 5: Believe it or not.
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: This pretty interesting stuff. And there was one more thing
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: that was on my list for today. It was a
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: big story. I felt it was a big story. Bear
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: with me, let me see here. Oh Pete hegseth saying
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: no more dudes and dresses.
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: But I don't think there was another one.
• 45:09
  Speaker 3: Oh yes, there wasn't a ton of information on it.
• 45:14
  Speaker 3: But my buddy James O'Keeffe, James O'Keeffe, investigative journalist, has
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: gotten a United States Secret Service member from the Vice
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: President's protective detailed President Vice President Jade Vance on an
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: undercover sting operation. This guy fell into a honey trap
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: and literally was showing the girl pictures of him and
• 45:36
  Speaker 3: the Vice President that had the GEO targeting on so
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: she could know exactly what the metadata was on these photos.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: All sorts of crazy stuff. I'll get into that in
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: a little bit, but keep it locked right here. I
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: am Rich Valdez. Don't go anywhere.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: This is America. This is America.
• 45:58
  Speaker 11: The forty fifth president Old Trump thinks it's an honor
• 46:02
  Speaker 11: to speak with Rich Valdez.
• 46:03
  Speaker 16: Oh, very good, Rich, The honor is all yours.
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: Conservative time with a dash of sofrito, Now here's Rich Valdez,
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: all right, I mean he goes, welcome back, Rich Valdez,
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: keeping the company this Tuesday night, and I want to
• 46:23
  Speaker 3: get into this breaking story.
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: Probably should have led with this at the top. Forgive
• 46:27
  Speaker 5: me for not having my ducks in a row.
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: A couple of weeks back. You may remember I said,
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: I think that the break in or attempted break in
• 46:37
  Speaker 3: or prevented break in at jd Vance's home, even though
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: he wasn't there and neither was his family.
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: Was a security breach.
• 46:47
  Speaker 3: Right, it was a lapse in security that happened I
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: don't know, two and a half weeks ago, about Christmas time,
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: something like that. Well, apparently they didn't learn from that.
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: This guy is surrounded by ops. Here's the latest on
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: what's going on with Jade Vance. One of his his
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: secret service detail guys was all too happy, all too
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: happy to talk about this stuff. And I gotta tell
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: you this is not.
• 47:07
  Speaker 5: A not a good look, not a good look at
• 47:10
  Speaker 5: all from Fox.
• 47:11
  Speaker 13: And I see you that you can.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: Be so key.
• 47:17
  Speaker 16: A current secret service agent on Vice President JD Vance's
• 47:21
  Speaker 16: security detail.
• 47:22
  Speaker 17: When he's like walking Mike where he am.
• 47:29
  Speaker 16: So it gives away vital high level security information to
• 47:32
  Speaker 16: our undercover journalists, tells her about detailed future travel plans
• 47:43
  Speaker 16: for the Vice president, and even sends her pictures with
• 47:45
  Speaker 16: location metadata revealing where the president's convoy was located, potentially
• 47:50
  Speaker 16: violating both the Secret Service NDA and United States federal law.
• 47:54
  Speaker 16: Tomas is fully aware of this quote. I signed paperwork,
• 47:58
  Speaker 16: so if I don't have to get about information, I
• 48:01
  Speaker 16: never do. Otherwise I get in trouble. You really have
• 48:04
  Speaker 16: to stand in awe on the lack of self awareness.
• 48:10
  Speaker 16: Thomas Escato also reveals that he voted for Biden and
• 48:13
  Speaker 16: that he hates Trump and Vance's immigration policies.
• 48:17
  Speaker 5: Did you vote for Biden?
• 48:20
  Speaker 11: What do you think about?
• 48:21
  Speaker 14: Like all the ice stuff going on?
• 48:27
  Speaker 16: You may have seen reports last week that someone attempted
• 48:30
  Speaker 16: to break into Vice President JD. Vance's home in Ohio.
• 48:34
  Speaker 16: That incident prompted us to take a closer look.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: What we found in.
• 48:38
  Speaker 16: Our investigation was an agent inside the Vice President's detail
• 48:42
  Speaker 16: who is actually revealing to a total stranger that the
• 48:45
  Speaker 16: Vice President will be visiting his home in Ohio days
• 48:48
  Speaker 16: ahead of time. And while what you're about to see
• 48:50
  Speaker 16: is an important story, the security of the Vice President
• 48:54
  Speaker 16: and his family is our top priority now. Under normal circumstances,
• 48:58
  Speaker 16: our editorial policy is to reques us to comment a
• 49:00
  Speaker 16: day or two before a report airs, But in this case,
• 49:04
  Speaker 16: we contacted the Secret Service a full week in advance
• 49:07
  Speaker 16: of this report to ensure that nothing we report here
• 49:10
  Speaker 16: would compromise the Vice president's safety in any way. But
• 49:14
  Speaker 16: even with those precautions, what we uncovered is troubling, and
• 49:17
  Speaker 16: we felt this is important for you all to see.
• 49:20
  Speaker 16: We hope that bringing this to light strengthened security and
• 49:24
  Speaker 16: helps prevent future vulnerabilities in our government.
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: So that's the story.
• 49:29
  Speaker 3: Tomas Escoto voted for Biden, hates Trump advance's immigration policy.
• 49:36
  Speaker 3: And again, I guess you don't get to choose right
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: who's on your Secret Service detail, because the presumption is
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: that they're going to do everything they can to make
• 49:43
  Speaker 3: sure that you stay alive and jump in front of
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: a bullet and do what they've got to do and
• 49:48
  Speaker 3: never tell the secrets of your whereabouts. But apparently here
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: it all happened. Now, doesn't surprise me that this. I
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: voted for Biden, It doesn't surprise me that he's against
• 50:03
  Speaker 3: their policies, because it's those are the type of people
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: that just don't take their jobs serious.
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: They take everything seriously but their job.
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: They don't take the United States as national security seriously.
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: They don't take the importance of their job seriously. Me me, me, me,
• 50:21
  Speaker 3: me me.
• 50:23
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 50:24
  Speaker 3: And this is why I'm an issues guy, because if
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: I voted on me every time, there may not be
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: enough of me to go around, right. There may not
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: be I may not end up voting that often because
• 50:38
  Speaker 3: there may not be enough things that make a difference
• 50:41
  Speaker 3: to me personally. But I have children, I have family.
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: Things that may or may not affect me, might affect
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: those in my family, might affect my children. So this
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: is why I think this whole what have you done
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: for me lately? Thing when it comes to politics is
• 50:57
  Speaker 3: you got to do what's right for the greater, in
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: my opinion, for everybody, for your country, for your future,
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: not just your future, your family's future, your children's future,
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: the future of your legacy, not just what's good for
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: you today. Anyway, Let's take a look at this. This
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: is Fox News. Just a few hours ago. Secret Service
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: agent assigned to Vice president in advance has been suspended
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: placed on administrative leave after O'Keefe's undercover video leaked all
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: this information. He leaked the information and exposed that he
• 51:32
  Speaker 3: being Tomas Escoto, not James O'Keefe. The United States Secret
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: Service said it's investigating. The employee's security clearance is currently
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: suspended and his access to agency facilities and systems has
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: been revoked while this incident is being investigated. And this
• 51:48
  Speaker 3: opens the door for broader concerns about operational security and
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: an agency wide retraining order. Yeah, I mean, yeah, we
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: should have been doing this agency wide retraining when the
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: Director of the Secret Service let what happened to President
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: Trump happen, and then her second and command gets in
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: there and says, how great she is, the woman that
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: was from PEPSI. I mean, this is just a crazy
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: thing now. The Deputy Director of the United States Secret
• 52:12
  Speaker 3: Service Director Deputy Director Matthew Quinn told Fox News in
• 52:16
  Speaker 3: a statement that the United States Secret Service has no
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: tolerance for any behavior that could potentially compromise the safety, privacy,
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: or trust of their protectees. This incident is under investigation
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: and the employee is involved. The employee that is involved
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: has been placed on administrative leave, with his clearance suspended
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: and access to agency facilities revoked, and it goes on
• 52:39
  Speaker 3: and on, but I'll probably say this more of the same.
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: The White House did not immediately respond to the Fox
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: News thing, but you can rest assured that when the
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: time is right, he'll likely say something or they won't.
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: Bottom line here, this guy got caught with his pants down.
• 52:51
  Speaker 3: He got caught by James o kissel My Nissele. So
• 52:54
  Speaker 3: it's double bad for him because you know, if it
• 52:58
  Speaker 3: comes out on Fox News and nobody he sees it, well,
• 53:00
  Speaker 3: all right, then there you go. Just the people who
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: are taking a look at the website, ors watching TV
• 53:04
  Speaker 3: that day see.
• 53:05
  Speaker 5: It when it comes out.
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: For O'Keefe, you know, he's all over all to social
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: media and he's going to keep reposting it and oh
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: Keef never posts one video, right, it's today, here's what
• 53:13
  Speaker 3: he said today, But we met up with him again,
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: and here's what he said next time, and that third time.
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: And then of course is the actual the confrontation video.
• 53:22
  Speaker 3: Right when O'Keefe comes up to you with his iPad
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: in hand and says, tell us a Scott, Hi, I'm
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: James O'Keefe, and then the guy tries to walk away,
• 53:28
  Speaker 3: no comment. I don't want to talk to you. Get
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: away from me. Get away from me, I said, get
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: away from me. You know, there's always the confrontation, and
• 53:33
  Speaker 3: of course that's where o'keef's intrepid journalism kicks in, and he's,
• 53:37
  Speaker 3: you know, holding the photos of the video showing him
• 53:40
  Speaker 3: on the ipop.
• 53:40
  Speaker 5: But isn't this you? Isn't this you?
• 53:42
  Speaker 3: Why why did you tell this girl all of this
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: sensitive information about the Secret Service? And then go on
• 53:48
  Speaker 3: and say, look, I signed something saying I can't say
• 53:51
  Speaker 3: anything an NDA, a non disclosure agreement, and on top
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: of that, tell her, so I'm going to be in
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: Florida with the Vice president for the next five days.
• 53:58
  Speaker 3: And why would you give out all the information?
• 54:00
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: If this girl's a spy, he's lucky that she was
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: working for O'Keefe. This guy was a whole lot of dumb,
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: a whole lot of dumb. This is a huge mistake
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: for him. It's going to be difficult for him to
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: work after this. I don't think he gets to stick
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: around if he does. What a disgrace, What an absolute disgrace.
• 54:17
  Speaker 3: Somebody who can be that sloppy gets to hold on
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: to their job and by his job, I mean maybe
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: he'll stay working in the Secret Service if he's lucky,
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: but he should definitely not be anywhere near the Vice President.
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: And if he does stay in the Secret Service, how
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: many of his colleagues are going to be like, Yeah, listen,
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: mistakes happen, Like that guy who left his gun in
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: the Capitol bathroom.
• 54:39
  Speaker 5: I don't think that's the case.
• 54:40
  Speaker 3: Most cops want to know that they're safe with you,
• 54:43
  Speaker 3: with their life in your hands when you watch their six.
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: This doesn't seem to be very safe for these people,
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: for that guy, you know, because he's a loose cannon.
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: So anyways, more information breaks on that, I'll get you
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: more information about that. Keep it locked right here and
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: gonna come right back. We're gonna wrap this bad boy. Yeah,
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: I want to give you a little bit of the
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: food Triangle, not the triangle food pyramid. This happened a
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: few days ago, but I thought it was interesting because
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: I had a guest on the show, the radio show,
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: a long time ago, and this is what we talked about.
• 55:14
  Speaker 3: He talked about how in the early nineteen eighties and
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: late seventies they changed the food pyramid to include a
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: ton of carbs, and he said it was like a
• 55:22
  Speaker 3: conspiracy theory against America. And here we are, you know,
• 55:27
  Speaker 3: fifteen sixteen years later, twenty five, thirty forty years later
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: in some cases, from the updates that the various updates
• 55:34
  Speaker 3: to the food pyramid.
• 55:35
  Speaker 5: And yeah, oatmeal is not really that good for you.
• 55:38
  Speaker 3: Tastes really good, but it's just not that good for
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: you anyway, keep it locked right here.
• 55:42
  Speaker 5: It's Valdez. I'm coming right back.
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: This is America. This is America. He's making podcasting great again.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: This is America with Rich Valdez.
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: All right, he goes, welcome back, and again, if you
• 56:04
  Speaker 3: want to join us, you know the number eight seven
• 56:06
  Speaker 3: seven valdest one.
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: I did have a.
• 56:09
  Speaker 3: Call that I was going to get to, but I'm
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: not going to be able to get to it now
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: for the sake of time, forgive me on that, but
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: I will get the calls on min Ya. And I
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: wanted to get into this story here about the food pyramid, because.
• 56:21
  Speaker 5: I think this is important.
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: Right, So many of us thought we learned how to
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: eat the four food groups, this, that, and the other.
• 56:28
  Speaker 5: And if you grew up anything like.
• 56:30
  Speaker 3: Me, you ate a crap ton of rice all sorts
• 56:34
  Speaker 3: of your sandwich has never had less than three slices
• 56:36
  Speaker 3: of bread, right, I mean we were just carb people,
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: which explains my weight at such an early age.
• 56:42
  Speaker 5: So what gives Well?
• 56:45
  Speaker 3: I got some audio from a few days back when
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: Secretary Kennedy blew the lid off this thing, along with
• 56:50
  Speaker 3: doctor Marty mcleary and who else and the United States
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: Surgeon General.
• 56:56
  Speaker 5: Listen to this.
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, if a foreign adversary saw it to destroy the
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: health of our children, to cripple our economy, to weaken
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: our national security, there would be no better strategy than
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: to addict us to ultra process foods. It's shocking that
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: our own government helps to drive these cataclysmic changes in
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: our diet. The damage is real, it is preventable, and
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: President Trump has ordered him to end that.
• 57:25
  Speaker 3: Secretary RFK Junior Bobby Kennedy, the Secretary of the Department
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: of Health and Human Services and against strong words, right,
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: if a foreign adversary was trying to do us in,
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: they probably couldn't have done any worse than what our
• 57:39
  Speaker 3: own government did to us by way of allowing all
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: of this sugar into our body, sugar that fuels cancer,
• 57:45
  Speaker 3: sugar that fuels diabetes, cardiovascular disease, endless amount of amputations,
• 57:51
  Speaker 3: and now a huge market for drugs for people who
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: have been addicted to sugar and now have diabetes. Me
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: absolutely stark stuff. This is what people during COVID were saying,
• 58:05
  Speaker 3: that these people are all profiting between the government and
• 58:08
  Speaker 3: big pharma. They're just profiting off of making us sick
• 58:11
  Speaker 3: and trying to make us well again. Well doctor Marty mcleary,
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: he weighed in on this as well.
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: The data for sixteen years, two other large studies failed
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: to show an association. Finally, the study trickled out in
• 58:23
  Speaker 4: the medical literature. Nobody noticed it. Those on the low
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: fat group had higher rates of heart attacks. Why maybe,
• 58:30
  Speaker 4: because when you avoid fat, you have to pound food
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: with carbohydrates, and often ultra processed carbohydrates, stripped a fiber
• 58:40
  Speaker 4: and chopped up at functions like sugar. We created a
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: generation of children with low protein, high carbohydrates, sugar addiction
• 58:49
  Speaker 4: and on burdened with ultraprocessed foods. And what did we
• 58:53
  Speaker 4: do as a medical field drugged them at scale. Those
• 58:57
  Speaker 4: days are over. We are telling people that truth about food.
• 59:02
  Speaker 5: Look at that.
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the doctor Marty McLaury, the FDA commissioner. He's
• 59:05
  Speaker 3: keeping a real he's keeping a gangster. He's making sure
• 59:07
  Speaker 3: that people are doing the right thing. And I can
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: tell you the first hand I've experienced this.
• 59:12
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 59:12
  Speaker 3: I ate like there was no tomorrow to my heart's content,
• 59:15
  Speaker 3: and I gained weight. And first it was five pounds,
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: and it was ten, that was fifteen, that was twenty.
• 59:20
  Speaker 3: Before you knew it was a solid forty. And I
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: just called myself Gordito, just a little lextra chubby now
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: because I like to eat. Oh no, because it's funny,
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: because it was cute, right it. Really, it was no
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: issue for me. I was not afraid for my life
• 59:33
  Speaker 3: until I was many years later, after years of abusing
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: my body with fast food and just thinking, ah, who cares,
• 59:40
  Speaker 3: one of these days I lose it. I didn't care.
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: I didn't think I needed to lose weight. I was like,
• 59:43
  Speaker 3: as long as I'm not six hundred pounds, I'm good.
• 59:45
  Speaker 3: Who cares that I have a little gut. I'll just
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: buy bigger pants. At one point, I was wearing a
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: waist forty two. My shirt size, my neck size was
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: a seventeen and a half or an eighteen. My jacket
• 59:56
  Speaker 3: size was a forty eight typically, but it went up
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: to fifty at one point, and I was looking at
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: a video. I did a TV show called I Forget
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 3: what it was called RFL and it was a live
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 3: show out of New York on urn N, the regional
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 3: network news and as a regional TV network. Anyway, bottom
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 3: line was, I looked at me commenting back then on Obama,
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: I was wearing a gray suit. This is on YouTube
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: on their channel, by the way, I was wearing a
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: gray suit and it literally looked like two of me.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: And back then I thought I was the most handsome guy.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: And I had my wife telling me I was handsome.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 3: Well back then, I was already divorced by then. But
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: prior to that, you know, I thought I was the
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 3: best thing since sliced bread.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: There were other women interested in me after the fact
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: that I was like, no, I'm just recently divorced, taking
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: it easy, right. It never dawned on me that I
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: was that big until I lost all the weight I did.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: And now I look it back and I'm like, wow,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: how did I function at that size? But at that
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 3: stage of the game, I just thought I had a
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: few extra pounds. I was ah five ten pounds. Fifteen
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 3: would have been the max. I was eighty pounds overweight.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: I weighed two hundred and seventy pounds. Amazing, amazing. Anyway,
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: the Surgeon General also weighed in, and again these guys really,
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: you know, they went at it. I mean, I got
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: a few more clips for you. I don't want to
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 3: bore you to death with this, but this is really
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: important stuff and stuff that I think makes a difference.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 5: Listen to this one.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 17: Let me be very clear about what has been accomplished.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 17: We have flipped the script on establishment nutrition and we
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 17: have turned the pyramid upside down. And let me be
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 17: equally clear. These dietary guidelines will help make America healthy again.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 17: Let me be direct. Let me be very clear about
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 17: what has been accomplished.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 5: That is the Surgeon General of the United States.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: This is a big deal, right And we don't need
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 3: RFK Junior to tell us not to have a cheap meal,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: although he did, and I appreciate it, or doctor Marty
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 3: mclary to tell us that we should need carbs, but
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 3: he did, and I appreciate that as well, because you
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: know what I needed to hear it. I know it now,
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: but I didn't know it in two thousand and nine.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: I didn't know it in twenty ten, right when this
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: was all for me the height of my I was
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: having these sugary drinks that were so loaded with sugar.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: I thought, it's a nice coffee, right, and I would
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 3: go and I would go, you know, can I get that?
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: At one point I tried to get creative and I
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 3: was like, it's coffee with cream and they put sugar in.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: So I told him, see it's a little sweet. You
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: mind not putting sugar and I'll put a splenda in there.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 3: And they were like, oh no, it comes pre mixed.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: It was the most delicious thing ever, kind of like
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: that pre mixed chocolate milk that you get at McDonald's
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: or that pre mixed chocolate milk you can get at
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: ahuah wah. Absolutely just delicious. It's like the best chocolate
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: milk ever made. This coffee tasted like that. It was
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: these Mocha coffee's like that little Starbucks Mocha drink that
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: comes to a little glass jar.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 5: It's phenomenal. It's all sugar. I mean, I hate that.
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 5: I liked it. I don't have it anymore. And thankful.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: I don't even have a taste for it because it
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 3: is too sweet. But back then I needed it, I
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 3: craved it, I loved it. Which maybe one of these
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: days we'll bring in a guest to talk about why.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 3: Because once you have enough sugar, your gut starts to
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: grow different types of flora and whatnot, and it starts
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: to crave sweets and sugar.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 5: And things that I didn't even like. I might even
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 5: a cake guy.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 3: I'm a food guy, right, you tell me a heaping
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: plate of rice and beans and some chicken or whatever,
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: I'm all in. But when you start eating this poorly,
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: then you're like, hey, can I get a cheese Danish?
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: And can I wash that down with an ecklayer? Or
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 3: can I wash that down with a jelly donut? I mean,
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: just insane sugar cravings. Doctor Marty mcleary, FDA, We've.
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 4: Been fed a corrupt food pyramid that has had a
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 4: myopic focus on demonizing natural, healthy saturated fats, telling you
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 4: not to eat eggs and steak, and ignoring a giant
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: blind spot refined carbohydrates, added sugars, ultra processed food. For decades,
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 4: we've been FEDA corrupt.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 3: Food for decades. We've been fed this corrupt food pyramid.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: And these guys I love that they're harping on this.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: I love it. I mean, they're nailing it. This is
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: the speech I needed. This is ultimately the speech that
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: my doctor gave me. But I didn't get it until
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 3: twenty seventeen, and by then, you know, some significant damage
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 3: was done.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 5: I had a lot of weight to lose.
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 3: I had already lost some weight on my own, but
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: he helped me to lose even more weight and really
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 3: to understand why I was gaining weight, and to understand
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 3: why I was so sluggish, to understand why I was
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: so tired, and this was it changing my diet, changing
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 3: you know, the fact that I was only awake because
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: I was drinking four cups of coffee throughout the day.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 3: You can't really live your life like that, and I
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 3: did it for years thinking it was normal because you
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: see stuff like that on TV and you're like, yeah,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not the only one. Those guys do Red Bull.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: The other ones are doing caffeine pills. I'm just drinking coffee.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: But this is not ideal. This is not as God
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 3: intended and as RFK Junior is about to tell us
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: the cheap meal is not okay.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: Cheap meal made of process food is cheap is an
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: illusion because you're paying for it on the back end,
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: say for with diabetes, with obesity, with illness, and if
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: you internalise that caused the meal, it would be a
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: tiny fraction of the long term cause of eating bad food.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 3: Now he's talking about cheating on your diet with cheap,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 3: affordable food. Right, like the what used to be known
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 3: as the dollar menu at McDonald's. Right, you can go
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 3: there and get a bunch of things on that dollar menu.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 3: I don't think that exists anymore thanks to Joe Biden.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 3: If they bring it back, that might be the ultimate indicator.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 5: Right. Economist d J.
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 3: Antonio, he says people judge things by the McDonald's economy.
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 3: Him and Steve Moore kind of connect with them because
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: we've seen some shifts in our economy and as a
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: few people, I got to call bottom line here. Just
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: because your cheat meal maybe cheap, doesn't mean that it's
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 3: good for you. Even if it's bad for you, it's
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 3: probably worse for you than you think. And I think
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: that makes a lot of sense. We need to stop
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: writing things off as that's all right, A little bit
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: of this little bit.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 5: Won't kill you.
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 3: I think it will. And if we look at it
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 3: as poison, we'll treat it as poison. Nobody says I'll
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: have a little bit poison. Nobody does that anyway, amigos.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: I want you to be informed. I want you to care,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 3: I want you to be healthy. I want you to
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: know what's going on, because we have to be informed patriots.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: If we stand for nothing, we'll fall for anything. The
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: people like you to sit there and do nothing. So
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: make sure you do something for your health, for your family,
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 3: for your country. I start up, Broksima, take care, good night,
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 3: and God bless you America. I'm Rich Valdes, and this
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 3: is America.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: This is America.
