Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Last week the Saturday morning breakfast with father Alex, we
- 0:03Speaker 1: had Katie McFarland and people loved her. And and also
- 0:10Speaker 1: there's a big her daughter was there. Who's ah ah
- 0:16Speaker 1: representatives in Sarasota, Florida, and there's a big fundraiser for
- 0:22Speaker 1: her tonight. I'm gonna try to get there, but you know,
- 0:25Speaker 1: I worked till six o'clock.
- 0:26Speaker 2: All right, Well, we got Katie McFarland on the line.
- 0:29Speaker 1: I know her. Her daughter is one smart girl. And
- 0:33Speaker 1: her daughter was went to Annapolis and now she's she
- 0:39Speaker 1: did public service for our military, and now she's doing
- 0:42Speaker 1: public service for America and Florida. And there's a rumor
- 0:49Speaker 1: around a room around that she might be the lieutenant
- 0:53Speaker 1: governor to the next governor.
- 0:55Speaker 3: Byron Donald's all right, well that's what ka tal get
- 1:00Speaker 3: a second.
- 1:00Speaker 2: A leading k give us.
- 1:04Speaker 4: Well, my daughter, state Representative Fona McFarland from Sarasota, Florida.
- 1:10Speaker 4: She's in the state legislature. She's because the Wall Street
- 1:13Speaker 4: Journal called her a rising star in Southwest politics in Florida,
- 1:18Speaker 4: and she is on the short list to be lieutenant governor.
- 1:21Speaker 4: When Byron Donald's is you gets the wins the primary
- 1:25Speaker 4: in the fall. In late August said he's going to
- 1:28Speaker 4: choose a lieutenant governor. She's one of the people on
- 1:30Speaker 4: the list, may be her, maybe not, but in any event,
- 1:33Speaker 4: she'll be one of the leaders of the Florida legislature.
- 1:36Speaker 4: And Florida is really the state that's leading the country
- 1:39Speaker 4: on everything. And her big claim to fame is that
- 1:43Speaker 4: she wrote and drafted and got through took several years
- 1:46Speaker 4: to get it passed, but data privacy legislation in Florida
- 1:50Speaker 4: so that big corporations can't steal your data when you
- 1:53Speaker 4: go online. But most importantly, a social media law that
- 1:58Speaker 4: protects children under the age of fourteen so that they
- 2:01Speaker 4: can't be exploited by social media, that they can't even
- 2:04Speaker 4: have accounts. And that's where we've seen over the years
- 2:08Speaker 4: that young people, you know, age ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen,
- 2:11Speaker 4: that's when they start getting at risk mentally for the
- 2:15Speaker 4: bombardment that they're getting. You know, this is cyberbullying all
- 2:18Speaker 4: the rest. And so she really pushed through against a
- 2:21Speaker 4: lot of the big social media platforms went to war
- 2:25Speaker 4: in Florida. They knew that that was the state where
- 2:27Speaker 4: they had to make the battle and my daughter, Representative
- 2:30Speaker 4: Fiona mcfron won the battle. They've passed the law which
- 2:33Speaker 4: now every state in the country is now debating and
- 2:36Speaker 4: trying to get legislation to protect their young people. Proud
- 2:40Speaker 4: of her.
- 2:41Speaker 2: It's great. It's called nachas.
- 2:42Speaker 3: That's the Yiddish word for being proud of your children.
- 2:45Speaker 3: So we love that, Katine, and the protecting of children.
- 2:49Speaker 3: You know, I moved to New York at eleven years old.
- 2:51Speaker 3: If only someone had passed the law that would have
- 2:53Speaker 3: protected me from becoming a Jets fan. That would have
- 2:55Speaker 3: really helped me in the future. But all kidding aside,
- 2:58Speaker 3: let's talk about a serious issue. The worldwide number one
- 3:02Speaker 3: story this morning all over the world because video force
- 3:05Speaker 3: the mainstream media to make this a story. This morning,
- 3:07Speaker 3: I'm sure you noticed this massive invasion of forty nine thousand,
- 3:12Speaker 3: mostly men, probably all men of military age.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Military age young men into Spain. Look, Katie, you know
- 3:20Speaker 2: about NATO. This is a NATO country.
- 3:22Speaker 3: I don't like the idea of a NATO country which
- 3:24Speaker 3: shares our technology, shares our intelligence, being invaded by god
- 3:29Speaker 3: knows who.
- 3:31Speaker 4: Is the problem. The backstory of all this is so
- 3:34Speaker 4: there's a there's a narrow space where Morocco joins up
- 3:38Speaker 4: to Spain. There's a waterway through it. It's a Mediterranean
- 3:42Speaker 4: But forty nine fifty thousand young Moroccan men invaded this
- 3:47Speaker 4: town called Suda, which is on the border, and they
- 3:50Speaker 4: pushed into Spain. So by pushing into Spain, Spain has
- 3:54Speaker 4: recently stupidly adopted this policy where if you're even if
- 3:59Speaker 4: you're un documented in Spain, you can then get documented automatically.
- 4:03Speaker 4: Nobody has to find any papers. You can get jobs,
- 4:05Speaker 4: you can apply for social security, welfare, etc. So that's
- 4:09Speaker 4: number one problem. Number two problem is that all the
- 4:12Speaker 4: European countries, including Spain, belong to something called the Schengen Agreement,
- 4:17Speaker 4: and it's called the wet step dry step policy. So
- 4:23Speaker 4: if you can get yourself somehow or other into one
- 4:26Speaker 4: of these European countries, you can travel all through Europe
- 4:30Speaker 4: without any documentation. So those fifty thousand, which is just
- 4:34Speaker 4: the beginning of young men who have invaded now Spain
- 4:38Speaker 4: and the Spanish military can't really hold them there. They
- 4:41Speaker 4: don't know what to do. You know, Spain has been
- 4:43Speaker 4: one of the countries notoriously that's cut back on its
- 4:47Speaker 4: military won't have a military, doesn't have a national military
- 4:50Speaker 4: that's of any value. Their police isn't very effective, and
- 4:53Speaker 4: so now all of a sudden, there are fifty thousand
- 4:55Speaker 4: men who can go anywhere in Europe.
- 4:58Speaker 3: You know, you know, again this is kind of basic stuff.
- 5:03Speaker 3: You have to have a border, you have to have
- 5:06Speaker 3: some law and order. You know, Spain just a couple
- 5:10Speaker 3: of weeks ago, at the height of their euphoria winning
- 5:13Speaker 3: the World Cup, great team, great tournament of everything, you know,
- 5:16Speaker 3: went really well. But you know, masking this, you know,
- 5:21Speaker 3: the good soccer team is one thing, but the decline
- 5:24Speaker 3: of Europe, which has been predicted for a long time,
- 5:26Speaker 3: and we know they're not they have them in superpowers
- 5:28Speaker 3: for a long time, but now it almost now they
- 5:31Speaker 3: are starting to look almost like a total third world
- 5:35Speaker 3: mess of a country.
- 5:37Speaker 4: Well, it's called the death spiral, and it's an economic
- 5:41Speaker 4: and it's a social and it's a law enforcement. It's
- 5:44Speaker 4: a cultural problem that all these European countries about fifteen
- 5:48Speaker 4: twenty years ago decide that they were going to have
- 5:50Speaker 4: a lot of immigration coming from the Middle East. They
- 5:53Speaker 4: did it because they didn't think they had lower population growth.
- 5:56Speaker 4: And they said, well, we need to import your We
- 5:58Speaker 4: need to import Africans or Middle Eastern people to come
- 6:02Speaker 4: in work in our factories and work in our hospitals.
- 6:05Speaker 4: So they basically will they'd let it all happen, and
- 6:08Speaker 4: they encouraged them to come in, and in many of
- 6:11Speaker 4: the countries they offered them money to come in, they
- 6:14Speaker 4: would give them benefits, etc. So, especially the Northern European countries,
- 6:19Speaker 4: they have the biggest problem. And then when the Syrian
- 6:21Speaker 4: Civil War happened, you know, millions came from from the
- 6:25Speaker 4: Middle East and they came into Europe, and they came
- 6:27Speaker 4: into most of the countries of Europe, especially Western Europe,
- 6:30Speaker 4: Northern Europe, and there was no attempt made to assimilate them.
- 6:34Speaker 4: They got to establish their own little zones, their own laws,
- 6:37Speaker 4: they brought their own culture with them, and it's caused
- 6:40Speaker 4: massive problems throughout Europe. I mean Belgium, Brussels, Belgium, you know,
- 6:44Speaker 4: it used to be one of the crown jewel cities
- 6:46Speaker 4: of Europe. It is now more than fifty percent Muslim
- 6:50Speaker 4: immigrant and they have all the attendant problems with them.
- 6:53Speaker 4: So that's number one, is the cultural problem. It's the
- 6:56Speaker 4: cultural suicide really of the European countries. And the second
- 7:00Speaker 4: is that the economic growth of the European countries, because
- 7:04Speaker 4: it has such massive social welfare but spending, including to
- 7:07Speaker 4: pay for all of this mass migration, that they now
- 7:11Speaker 4: have zero economic growth, so no economic growth that cut
- 7:14Speaker 4: back on their militaries. They have social problems, they have
- 7:18Speaker 4: financial problems that they can't meet the budgets they have,
- 7:21Speaker 4: and so it's a downward spiral.
- 7:23Speaker 2: But other than that, Missus Lincoln, I was the show.
- 7:27Speaker 3: And honestly, you know, why is it that opening the
- 7:30Speaker 3: border is the answer to a lower birth rate? Why
- 7:33Speaker 3: don't they pump some Barry White, have a National Date night,
- 7:36Speaker 3: give everyone a little bit of a day off of work,
- 7:39Speaker 3: have a five day weekend.
- 7:41Speaker 1: And show the movie The Odyssey.
- 7:43Speaker 2: Yeah, show them the I mean's something I can't.
- 7:45Speaker 3: I mean all kidding aside, Their birth rates are low
- 7:48Speaker 3: because they're high taxation and their high regulation and families
- 7:53Speaker 3: can't afford to have more than one or two children.
- 7:56Speaker 3: How about you make it, you know, the war on childhood,
- 7:59Speaker 3: war on motherhood. I would say, more specifically, even to
- 8:02Speaker 3: those countries that say they're so in favor of women's rights,
- 8:06Speaker 3: is has a lot to do with finances, and you
- 8:09Speaker 3: know again, so instead so that let's bring in a
- 8:11Speaker 3: bunch of people who who will get paid pennies on
- 8:14Speaker 3: the dollar, that's not the solution.
- 8:16Speaker 4: Just as well, let's get slaves. I mean, basically, let's
- 8:18Speaker 4: write a cheap workforce and we're not going to have
- 8:20Speaker 4: to pay anything to them, and we're not going to
- 8:23Speaker 4: suffer any consequences. What it was about them, it was
- 8:25Speaker 4: a really stupid policy and Europe is now paying the price,
- 8:28Speaker 4: and a number of European countries that's why you're seeing
- 8:30Speaker 4: in all the European countries arise of a conservative movement,
- 8:35Speaker 4: whether it's in the Eastern European countries or in the
- 8:38Speaker 4: Reform Party in Britain, the Party in France. There's a
- 8:42Speaker 4: German party that they're all they're not they're not anti immigrant,
- 8:46Speaker 4: but they're law and order parties. They're you know, they're
- 8:49Speaker 4: populist parties. And it's driving the Europeans crazy, especially the
- 8:53Speaker 4: left wing European media. They're in a pickle. They don't
- 8:55Speaker 4: know how to solve it. Because they told all these
- 8:58Speaker 4: people to come to their countries. They have no way
- 9:00Speaker 4: of sort of identifying who's here. How do we get
- 9:02Speaker 4: them back, where do we get them back to? And
- 9:05Speaker 4: so I do think that Europe in many ways is
- 9:07Speaker 4: in a downward spiral because they can't really fix their
- 9:10Speaker 4: economies at the same time, and they've also done this
- 9:12Speaker 4: crazy green New Deal thing, where as President Trump keeps saying,
- 9:16Speaker 4: you know, the Brits are nuts. They have a lot
- 9:19Speaker 4: of oil in the North Sea, but they won't use it.
- 9:22Speaker 4: They'd much rather have windmills and solar panels, and it's
- 9:26Speaker 4: not solving their energy problems. Their energy is the most
- 9:28Speaker 4: expensive in the world. So I think that that's one
- 9:31Speaker 4: of the reasons why President Trump, especially with Marco Rubio,
- 9:34Speaker 4: has moved the focus. We're not European focused anymore. We're
- 9:38Speaker 4: focused on the Western hemisphere. That's where our future lives,
- 9:41Speaker 4: our economic future, our cultural future, our security future.
- 9:46Speaker 3: Yeah, and hot tip, let's not copy what Europe does.
- 9:49Speaker 3: You have a tremendous amount of liberal so called intellectuals
- 9:53Speaker 3: in this country who say we'd be better off we
- 9:55Speaker 3: were like Europe.
- 9:56Speaker 2: No, we'd be dead.
- 9:56Speaker 3: Katie McFarland, congratulations on your daughter. We're going to be
- 9:59Speaker 3: why to see if she gets chosen to be the
- 10:01Speaker 3: lieutenant governor to get that Lieutenant governor slot. That's very
- 10:04Speaker 3: exciting and uh, thank you so much for joining us.
