  Speaker 1: And I get up in the morning and I'm thrilled
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: to see the world on a need to know basis,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: because you need to know the first thing today.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Jeward said, steal metemn.
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: You have a day at least for work when the
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: sun comes up, drops a kid to scoot, joys.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: Everything a dream, do all the treasure.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Seven needs no.
• 0:30
  Speaker 5: One that Joe's as smiled.
• 0:32
  Speaker 6: He only as.
• 0:37
  Speaker 4: Thank you for letting me be of service to you.
• 0:40
  Speaker 7: I want to be. Just want to let you know
• 0:43
  Speaker 7: what's going on, tell you what happened, give you our
• 0:47
  Speaker 7: analysis of it, and then find out, hopefully how it's
• 0:51
  Speaker 7: impacting you where you are at four three four eight
• 0:54
  Speaker 7: A two four two one seven. Happy birthday to our
• 0:57
  Speaker 7: buddy Bob in Portland having his birthday today at least
• 1:01
  Speaker 7: according to my secretary known as Facebook anyway. But appreciate
• 1:07
  Speaker 7: everyone who gets together with us.
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: Do you like that?
• 1:10
  Speaker 8: And you know how did this race become the most
• 1:13
  Speaker 8: expensive race in the history of Congress for a primary?
• 1:16
  Speaker 8: It's because three billionaires from outside of Kentucky have funneled
• 1:20
  Speaker 8: millions of dollars in here. They're trying to buy a seat.
• 1:23
  Speaker 8: And so it's not just the President's tweets. I could
• 1:26
  Speaker 8: sustain those without a problem. It's because Miriam Maidleson and
• 1:30
  Speaker 8: Paul Singer have dumped money in here. In fact, Miriam
• 1:32
  Speaker 8: Maidelson has given so much money to my opponent, then
• 1:35
  Speaker 8: instead of paying for the ballroom, they're going to need
• 1:37
  Speaker 8: taxpayer money for the ballroom.
• 1:39
  Speaker 9: Now, well, you see, and you've actually said this week
• 1:41
  Speaker 9: that this your vote is a referendum on whether Israel
• 1:45
  Speaker 9: gets to buy seats in Congress. What did you mean
• 1:49
  Speaker 9: by that?
• 1:51
  Speaker 8: Well, the RJC APAC and Mariam Maidlson and Paul Singer,
• 1:56
  Speaker 8: they're all part of the Israeli lobby, and that's where
• 1:58
  Speaker 8: all the money comes from. And it will be a
• 2:01
  Speaker 8: referendum on foreign policy whether Israel gets to dictate that
• 2:05
  Speaker 8: by bullying members of Congress.
• 2:08
  Speaker 7: So and there we find the issue. That's Tommy Massey,
• 2:12
  Speaker 7: Kentucky Congressman. Tuesday, his primary will be settled. He was
• 2:18
  Speaker 7: on ABC on Sunday on this week, and that was
• 2:25
  Speaker 7: George Stephanopoulos. You heard interviewing and this is the brilliance
• 2:34
  Speaker 7: of whatever marketing agency had Hamas turned into a marginalized community.
• 2:42
  Speaker 7: And you and I, as the Confucian curse says, live
• 2:46
  Speaker 7: in interesting times. We live in times where the only
• 2:56
  Speaker 7: American ally.
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: In an era.
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: Is the bad guy, all you know, and that's what
• 3:05
  Speaker 7: we've turned ourselves into.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: We are now.
• 3:10
  Speaker 7: Watching anti Semitism March, where we used to rail up
• 3:14
  Speaker 7: against such things, and it's troublesome. But we'll get into
• 3:23
  Speaker 7: it some more as we come back. First, let me
• 3:25
  Speaker 7: lay out the first things as they went on yesterday,
• 3:29
  Speaker 7: huge rally hundreds of thousands of people on the mall
• 3:33
  Speaker 7: in d C for the rededication of One Nation under God.
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: President Trump read from Second Chronicles. If my people who
• 3:42
  Speaker 7: are called by my name humble themselves and pray and
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, that
• 3:49
  Speaker 7: I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin
• 3:53
  Speaker 7: and heal their land. Meanwhile, China leaking out and now
• 4:02
  Speaker 7: issuing more of what was agreed upon President Trump's summit
• 4:06
  Speaker 7: with Chairman she seventeen billion dollar agricultural produs Tradil, mostly
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: impacting beef and poultry going into China, but also rare
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: earth minerals coming out. They're going to release some of
• 4:23
  Speaker 7: their controls over the flow of those materials, more commodities,
• 4:29
  Speaker 7: and how they're being traded. President Trump tweeted the clock
• 4:34
  Speaker 7: is ticking regarding Iran. They better get moving fast. With
• 4:39
  Speaker 7: that tweet, the price of oil went up one hundred
• 4:41
  Speaker 7: to one hundred and ten dollars per barrel. Ukraine struck
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: back on Russia, killing four people three ages outside of
• 4:50
  Speaker 7: Moscow in a massive drone strike that Ukrainian President Vladimir
• 4:54
  Speaker 7: Zelenski said was quote entirely justified after his point to
• 5:00
  Speaker 7: Russian attacks on Ukraine's capital. Four crew members ejected safely
• 5:10
  Speaker 7: from a frightening accident as two Navy jets crashed into
• 5:15
  Speaker 7: one another during an air show at Mountain Home Air
• 5:18
  Speaker 7: Base in western Idaho. They say that the pilots are
• 5:24
  Speaker 7: in stable condition and Aaron ray made Raye Pardoner. Aaron

  Speaker 7: Rai made six birdies in the last ten holes to
• 5:32
  Speaker 7: storm to the lead and rest victory at the PGA Championship.

  Speaker 6: I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic diseases have inflammation, our
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
• 8:37

  Speaker 12: Hi, everybody, I'm Jackman. It's always a boy growing up
• 10:01

• 10:21
  Speaker 12: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
• 10:23
  Speaker 12: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
• 10:26
  Speaker 12: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
• 10:29
  Speaker 12: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also

  Speaker 19: Thomas on the Chunk Ladiation.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: Let's begin the acquisition lookout. See, we have our mission
• 13:30

  Speaker 2: Jew jew We're gonna teach them from right.
• 13:35
  Speaker 19: We're gonna help them see the light and make an
• 13:38
  Speaker 19: offer them that they can't refuge.
• 13:41
  Speaker 7: You just can't ree confers, don't.
• 13:45
  Speaker 19: Be boring, say yes, don't be.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: Dull of fact, you're noorry.
• 13:57
  Speaker 20: It's better to lose your skult cap than your skill.
• 14:00
  Speaker 7: Oh so, as we watched this world and and I've
• 14:06
  Speaker 7: pointed this out, there's somewhere there we will find out
• 14:10
  Speaker 7: in history as history has written that there is some
• 14:13
  Speaker 7: ad agency, some marketing firm.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: Maybe it's even one of those crisis.
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: Crisis marketing companies that come in and somewhere in Chicago
• 14:25
  Speaker 7: or Richmond, Virginia, or Atlanta, Georgia, is some image consultant
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: that was called by a couple of guys in a
• 14:35
  Speaker 7: cave or a tunnel underneath Israel as they spent you know,
• 14:40
  Speaker 7: money that was supposed to be buying food for their citizens,
• 14:43
  Speaker 7: building bombs and digging tunnels underneath Israeli settlements that they
• 14:49
  Speaker 7: needed they needed a brand refreshment. And we've all seen this.
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: I mean, Burger King's got a great new one. My
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: father helped found the company. So I watched this ad
• 15:00
  Speaker 7: with great interests as the Burger King ad campaign's like,
• 15:03
  Speaker 7: you know what, we've screwed up pretty badly, and I'm
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: you know, it.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: Was a smack in the face. I'm like, yeah, you have.
• 15:12
  Speaker 7: And they fired the creepy King and all of these
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: It was well done. It was well done. Like, hey,
• 15:19
  Speaker 7: we know we've screwed up, and that's why most people
• 15:22
  Speaker 7: don't go to Burger King anymore. And I don't know
• 15:27
  Speaker 7: if it will work, but it's similar to what they've
• 15:29
  Speaker 7: done with Hamas and in the Islamist terrorist groups are
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: going through this half decade long brilliance of rebranding. They
• 15:43
  Speaker 7: realized that all American authoritarians, Democrats mostly but some Republicans,
• 15:51
  Speaker 7: were so interested in being seen as populist and open
• 15:56
  Speaker 7: minded and globalists that they would accept this rebranding of
• 16:04
  Speaker 7: Islamist terrorism as just just the fight for freedom of
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: a marginalized community. And these politicians had cornered themselves because
• 16:15
  Speaker 7: they had said time and time again, we are for
• 16:18
  Speaker 7: marginalized communities. Well, what a great way to win support
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: for our cause. And you know, it's one thing, and
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: Tommy Massey has always said he's against.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: War, that's okay.
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: That's like the difference between the tellings of the Ten Commandments.
• 16:36
  Speaker 7: You know, you have the traditional thou shalt not murder
• 16:41
  Speaker 7: or the more modern thou shalt not kill. One implies that,
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: you know, if you need to defend yourself, okay, you know,
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: and and death has to become that defense, So be
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: it the other one's like, ahh, they're they're running on you.
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: They're going to kill you, but don't kill them. Being
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: anti war is limiting. Here's an email to the subject.
• 17:13
  Speaker 7: Jerry writes in Joe, I thought you were another one
• 17:16
  Speaker 7: of these founding father cultists. Haven't I heard you talk
• 17:19
  Speaker 7: about George Washington's rebuke of international entanglements? How could you
• 17:25
  Speaker 7: be standing up for Israel? Israel is the capital city
• 17:30
  Speaker 7: of these international entanglements. How many problems have we caused
• 17:34
  Speaker 7: ourselves because of our relationship with Israel? This is part
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: of this marketing campaign, Jerry, that somehow you think that
• 17:47
  Speaker 7: if we were to disavow Israel, maybe Tommy Massey would
• 17:53
  Speaker 7: be okay with US military strikes on Tel Aviv and
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: Jerusalem instead of Tehran and the Strait of Hormuz. And yeah,
• 18:05
  Speaker 7: our gas prices are higher because we're trying to end
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: a war that even Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson makes Thomas
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: Massey look like Barack Obama. And I know the libertarian crowd,
• 18:21
  Speaker 7: they love their Tommy Massey. You'll probably be at Freedom
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: Fest when we're there. I'll try to get him because
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: there's a lot of stuff that I agree with Thomas
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: Massey on But when Thomas Jefferson himself writes to George
• 18:36
  Speaker 7: Washington that one here, I am living up to your rebuke, Jerry,
• 18:39
  Speaker 7: I think it was a rebuke that I'm a cultist
• 18:42
  Speaker 7: for the founding Fathers. Jefferson wrote to Washington and said
• 18:47
  Speaker 7: this one we may have to end with a war.
• 18:52
  Speaker 7: So here we are, two hundred and forty years later,
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: end to get with a war. Some battle going on there.
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: So when Tommy Massey makes these kind of comments on TV, well, you.
• 19:04
  Speaker 9: See, and you've actually said this week that this your
• 19:06
  Speaker 9: vote is a referendum on whether Israel gets to buy
• 19:10
  Speaker 9: seats in Congress. What did you mean by that?
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: Well, the RJC APAC and Mariam Aidelson and Paul Singer,
• 19:19
  Speaker 8: they're all part of the Israeli lobby, and that's where
• 19:22
  Speaker 8: all the money comes from. And it will be a
• 19:24
  Speaker 8: referendum on foreign policy whether Israel gets to dictate that
• 19:28
  Speaker 8: by bullying members of Congress.
• 19:32
  Speaker 7: So his allegation seems to be that Israel is out
• 19:37
  Speaker 7: there telling us what to do and who to attack,
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: and certainly our actions in Iran because we worked with Israel.
• 19:50
  Speaker 7: I'm not going to sit here and try to tell you, oh,
• 19:52
  Speaker 7: we didn't do it because of that. We were doing
• 19:53
  Speaker 7: it for a lot of other reasons because of that,
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: And one of the reasons to support Israel is it
• 19:58
  Speaker 7: is the lone Western enclave in an area that is
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: growing more and more Western. And one can only draw
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: the correlation that as long as we've supported Israel, the
• 20:11
  Speaker 7: Islamist world is reforming to the well at very least
• 20:15
  Speaker 7: the nineteenth century. At this point, maybe they'll get catch
• 20:18
  Speaker 7: up to the twenty first century, because we're supposed to
• 20:24
  Speaker 7: be trying to lead our way into a world of
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: individual rights and human rights, and an Islamist theocracy is
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: not about that. We watch the events on the mall
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: and everyone's screaming about Christian nationalism in the left wing press,
• 20:43
  Speaker 7: yet nobody talks about the Islamist nationalism that we're battling
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: in Tehran right now that pays for people to put
• 20:53
  Speaker 7: on a dynamite vest and kill as many people as
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: you can. Thou shalt not kill their belief structure as
• 21:02
  Speaker 7: they're being raised through their madrasas thou shalt kill, thou
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: must kill. So being anti war and I would be
• 21:18
  Speaker 7: curious to see if Tommy Massey would be against the war.
• 21:21
  Speaker 7: If we had done the same thing to Jerusalem and
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: to Tel Aviv that we did to Tehran, would he
• 21:31
  Speaker 7: be okay with that?
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: Oh?
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: Oh?
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: Or it is finally showing ourselves as like Washington was
• 21:37
  Speaker 7: right our international entanglements as a rule of thumb, but
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: he was talking about signing deals that said, no matter
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: what happens, if Paris gets attacked, we're going in.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: Even if maybe we agreed with.
• 21:51
  Speaker 7: The people who attacked Paris, because some of the people
• 21:54
  Speaker 7: who were trying to fend off the French revolutionaries, the
• 21:57
  Speaker 7: Marxists in their midst wanted us to weigh in on that.

• 28:48
  Speaker 2: you will know.
• 28:51
  Speaker 7: Whoa whoa whoa.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: God bless you, please, mister Madison. Heaven help these fools
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: that legislaate right away.
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: So Andy was writing into me text messaging on Patrick
• 29:10
  Speaker 7: Henry versus Thomas Jefferson, and they were not buddies by
• 29:15
  Speaker 7: any extent and difference, and the friction that made the
• 29:21
  Speaker 7: American nation what it is. And it's because I brought
• 29:25
  Speaker 7: up Jefferson and his position as Secretary of State under
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: Washington's first administration, and how after in seventeen eighty six,
• 29:39
  Speaker 7: meeting with the leaders of the Barbary Pirates and having
• 29:46
  Speaker 7: read the Qur'an, determined that despite what John Adams said,
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: maybe if we just give the money, they'll leave us alone.
• 29:56
  Speaker 7: And part of the issue was John Adams was martially
• 30:00
  Speaker 7: right as well, because so ardently held were these theocratic
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: beliefs of these Islamist pirates so deeply held for a paycheck,
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: they would put them aside. Hey, we understand that your
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: pro life, but if we give you fifty thousand dollars
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: a month, will you give up the pro life stands?
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: Because that's basically what happened was the Barbary pirates were
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: robbing and stealing from American ships simply because we weren't Islamists,
• 30:40
  Speaker 7: and that that gave them the right to do it.
• 30:41
  Speaker 7: And Jefferson, in discussing this John Adams as well, determined
• 30:49
  Speaker 7: Jefferson that this was not something they were going to
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: give up easily. Adams said, how about we give them money?
• 30:56
  Speaker 7: And the Islamist proved Adam's right by taking the money
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: into saying Okay, we'll leave you alone as long as
• 31:01
  Speaker 7: you keep the money flowing.
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: And our problems with.
• 31:04
  Speaker 7: These terrorists often come to the point where they're not
• 31:09
  Speaker 7: getting as much money to keep, you know, keep out
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: of our business, and so they move, they move around,
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: and they get rebranded as marginalized communities and all of this.
• 31:32
  Speaker 7: But at the end of the day, what President Trump
• 31:34
  Speaker 7: finally said is we need to get the one source
• 31:37
  Speaker 7: of all this international trouble, the guys who are funding
• 31:41
  Speaker 7: all of this stuff, to get them to stop. And
• 31:47
  Speaker 7: I predict before the summer is over, Donald Trump is
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: sitting down with whoever winds up being the leader of Iran,
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: whether it's the head of this Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
• 32:03
  Speaker 7: And I don't see how a military dictatorship helps, but
• 32:13
  Speaker 7: we will see this through. And perhaps the essential screw
• 32:17
  Speaker 7: up is trusting the wrong people on the ground to
• 32:20
  Speaker 7: help a Second Amendment movement take hold in rural Iran.
• 32:27
  Speaker 4: As we learned over.
• 32:28
  Speaker 7: Easter, we gave the Iranians guns, and the people we
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: gave the guns to that were supposed to distribute them
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: and said no, we're just going to keep them ourselves.
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: And that may wind up being the essential screw up
• 32:47
  Speaker 7: in this whole thing. But it doesn't mean it isn't
• 32:53
  Speaker 7: at some point been inevitable that this battle was going
• 32:58
  Speaker 7: to take place. But in the foundation of our nation,
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: Andy was talking about Patrick Henry's opposition to the constitution,
• 33:10
  Speaker 7: and where we are today, absolutely you can see the point,
• 33:15
  Speaker 7: because it's almost as if everything Patrick Henry warned about
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: was happening. My problem is that the European Union was
• 33:27
  Speaker 7: based basically on a rewriting of the Articles of Confederation,
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: and we see what a mess that's been. We were
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: going down that same mess, and so the idea and
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: there's several things that I was reading a piece a
• 33:45
  Speaker 7: couple of weeks back that Madison did not like the
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: Virginia Constitution because it puts the restrictions on the government
• 33:54
  Speaker 7: first and foremost. Virginia's constitution doesn't have a Bill of
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: Rights with amendments. We have Article one of our constitution.
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: Article one of the Virginia State Constitution is the Bill
• 34:09
  Speaker 7: of Rights. I think it's thirteen. It is a list
• 34:16
  Speaker 7: of things the government cannot do ever bar known, full stop,
• 34:22
  Speaker 7: and the things that they must do bar none full stop.
• 34:27
  Speaker 7: Madison doesn't like that. Madison felt like if you put
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: it on paper and gave it to a government, that
• 34:33
  Speaker 7: at some point the government could decide since this is
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: in our documents, it's our purview. That's why how it's
• 34:42
  Speaker 7: written is so important. Should they have rather than just
• 34:46
  Speaker 7: amending the Constitution as it sat? And I am not
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: a scholar on the parliamentary procedures they were under, but
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: I don't believe they could have without peril of chaos ensuing,
• 35:02
  Speaker 7: gone back and saying okay, instead of amending this and
• 35:05
  Speaker 7: making this ten things that you can add to the Constitution,
• 35:10
  Speaker 7: just making it article one, making the executive branch Article two,
• 35:15
  Speaker 7: and et cetera, because then, of course you don't establish
• 35:24
  Speaker 7: this idea that the government can just change its rules
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: by a process. I think it's important that we've had
• 35:33
  Speaker 7: the ability to amend the Constitution, but we've made it
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: a bigger deal because of the first ten amendments. But
• 35:47
  Speaker 7: if you look at where we are right now as
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: a country, we're not anywhere based on constitutional principles. We
• 35:55
  Speaker 7: are on perversions and allowed perversions of things like the
• 36:00
  Speaker 7: commerce clause. I mean to the point where it's almost
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: a joke. California, California is voters. And there's a reason
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: California isn't nearly as left wing as Virginia. Virginia's got
• 36:16
  Speaker 7: a very closely held General Assembly. It's a couple of
• 36:19
  Speaker 7: votes one way or the other, Republican or Democrat, depending
• 36:23
  Speaker 7: on who's in charge, and right now it's Democrats. And
• 36:26
  Speaker 7: we are far more left wing in all of the
• 36:29
  Speaker 7: laws we've been passing and getting signed by Governor Spanberger
• 36:32
  Speaker 7: than California is. You know why, because Californians can put
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: stuff like the Save Act on the ballot and vote
• 36:40
  Speaker 7: for them themselves. You don't need the California General Assembly
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: to put something into the law. You can do it yourself.
• 36:56
  Speaker 7: And how rare is it to hear somebody say something's
• 36:58
  Speaker 7: good in California?
• 37:00
  Speaker 4: Right? No, but it is.
• 37:01
  Speaker 7: That's a good idea. It is the state version of
• 37:05
  Speaker 7: the Article five Convention. If you will get enough signatures,
• 37:10
  Speaker 7: put your issue on the ballot in November, and the
• 37:14
  Speaker 7: Save America Act, or ostensibly the rules within the Save
• 37:17
  Speaker 7: America Act are going to be on Virginia's November or
• 37:20
  Speaker 7: California's November election. So California might actually do something that
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: the US government can't get its head out of its
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: ass and if eighty percent of Americans back the Save
• 37:33
  Speaker 7: America Act, I've got to think a majority of Californians do,
• 37:37
  Speaker 7: even if it's not eighty percent. So you see what
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: I mean about the federalism built into the Constitution, where
• 37:44
  Speaker 7: each state gets to do its things. We have people
• 37:47
  Speaker 7: who have been allowed by our jurisprudence to.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: Pervert and then pay us off.
• 37:54
  Speaker 7: To ignore the perversions of things like the Commerce clause
• 37:58
  Speaker 7: restrictions that taking that and perverting.
• 38:01
  Speaker 21: It, life can change so abruptly.
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: Just ask Paul.
• 38:05
  Speaker 21: He's a hard working entrepreneur, he's young, he's got a
• 38:08
  Speaker 21: young family. Suddenly, though, he develops a rare medical condition
• 38:11
  Speaker 21: where he lost the use of both of his arms.
• 38:14
  Speaker 25: I could no longer drive a car, couldn't use a computer,
• 38:16
  Speaker 25: couldn't type, couldn't use a mouse. I could not hold
• 38:18
  Speaker 25: my son, who was about a month old.
• 38:20
  Speaker 21: Paul and his family were facing a mountain of medical bills,
• 38:23
  Speaker 21: but they're so thankful that they're members of Meta Share.

  Speaker 19: know the first thing today.
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: Change or complaining to our manager either.
• 44:57
  Speaker 7: So it's reading this Colorado springs that Colorado is now
• 45:02
  Speaker 7: the third most expensive state for people to live in
• 45:05
  Speaker 7: the United States.
• 45:08
  Speaker 4: Left wing policies. Over and over and over again.
• 45:11
  Speaker 7: They're talking about the cost of housing and I don't
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: know what it is in Colorado, but in Virginia, which
• 45:19
  Speaker 7: has more recently had some right wingers lead it, it's
• 45:23
  Speaker 7: still in the cost of compliance will cost you about
• 45:29
  Speaker 7: two hundred thousand dollars before you even put a shovel
• 45:33
  Speaker 7: in the ground to build a house. That's before you
• 45:39
  Speaker 7: buy one piece of wood, one roofing shingle, one fawcet.
• 45:45
  Speaker 7: You're dropping two games. And if they want to be
• 45:49
  Speaker 7: prickly about it, now they start dragging you in for
• 45:52
  Speaker 7: Planning Commission meetings.
• 45:53
  Speaker 4: And view shed overlays.
• 45:55
  Speaker 7: That's a real thing. By the way, if I can
• 45:58
  Speaker 7: see your house from mine, I shall have some say
• 46:00
  Speaker 7: over it. So it's crazy making you It was tear
• 46:05
  Speaker 7: up thinking about it. And you give these non government
• 46:13
  Speaker 7: organizations control over things planning, and then you drag your
• 46:18
  Speaker 7: home builder into a commission hearing and they look at
• 46:22
  Speaker 7: the homes they're going to build, already costing them two
• 46:25
  Speaker 7: hundred thousand dollars, and they tell them, no, we don't
• 46:28
  Speaker 7: like the way they look, so you have to go
• 46:30
  Speaker 7: and redesign them. Go pay your architect millions of more
• 46:34
  Speaker 7: dollars to redesign the houses because we don't like the esthetic.
• 46:44
  Speaker 7: So it can go up from two. That's just a
• 46:46
  Speaker 7: base average, it's two hundred thousand. So let's say in Colorado,
• 46:51
  Speaker 7: more frequently left wing, more environmental regulation sets. Let's say
• 46:55
  Speaker 7: it cost three hundred thousand dollars just to put a
• 46:57
  Speaker 7: shovel in the ground. Why do you think housing is expensive?
• 47:04
  Speaker 7: And that's the cost of compliances. That's pleading the bureaucracy.
• 47:15
  Speaker 7: This text message on the founding of the nation and
• 47:23
  Speaker 7: setting us.
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: On this course.
• 47:29
  Speaker 7: Joe, if I understand correctly, we were not supposed to
• 47:33
  Speaker 7: be a military powerhouse, how did we wind up getting
• 47:36
  Speaker 7: to a point where George Washington would warn us about
• 47:39
  Speaker 7: our international entanglements.
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: Well, a lot of it.
• 47:43
  Speaker 7: Had to do with the fact that we were a
• 47:45
  Speaker 7: free economy and had been, so you have to go
• 47:48
  Speaker 7: back before the the you have to go back to
• 47:51
  Speaker 7: the French and Indian War. So the French decide they
• 47:56
  Speaker 7: want all of our East co port cities. They want
• 48:02
  Speaker 7: to drive the British out of the Americas.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: So they start.
• 48:10
  Speaker 7: Engineering border skirmishes along the Ohio to try to push
• 48:20
  Speaker 7: into where the British colonies were and to kick the
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: British out and make it all one big French colony.
• 48:29
  Speaker 7: And as this began, the call went back to England
• 48:34
  Speaker 7: saying help send soldiers. And they sent soldiers, and they
• 48:39
  Speaker 7: sent commanders with the soldiers, and they sent some government
• 48:43
  Speaker 7: officials with those commanders and soldiers. And the British, as
• 48:50
  Speaker 7: is their history, had ignored the American colonies for almost
• 48:56
  Speaker 7: a century. We had just as long as the tax
• 48:59
  Speaker 7: bill went back to England, we sort of more self governing.
• 49:03
  Speaker 7: Even then, nobody was really paying attention. Everyone was just
• 49:08
  Speaker 7: doing their things. And in a hundred years time America
• 49:12
  Speaker 7: had let's just say, evolved our governing from a particularly
• 49:19
  Speaker 7: hardcore quote conservative British way, and we were doing things
• 49:24
  Speaker 7: basically the way we're doing it, yeah, well, the way
• 49:27
  Speaker 7: we were founded to do it. We were managing our
• 49:32
  Speaker 7: affairs in a very Enlightenment way. Representative republicanism, et cetera
• 49:39
  Speaker 7: was all over the place, and the British came in
• 49:41
  Speaker 7: and said, what the hell are you all doing? Actually,
• 49:44
  Speaker 7: it probably sounded more like, oh, what's all this then?
• 49:50
  Speaker 7: And that's when they started to crack down, was after
• 49:53
  Speaker 7: they came and saw how we were governing these colonies.
• 49:59
  Speaker 7: They are to flex. They said, no, no, no, no, that's
• 50:03
  Speaker 7: not how we do things in the British Empire. You're
• 50:07
  Speaker 7: going to get in line, and we didn't want to
• 50:10
  Speaker 7: get in line, and thus the schism began. But we
• 50:17
  Speaker 7: had already been tracking towards a more John Locke driven
• 50:21
  Speaker 7: ideal of how to govern ourselves anyway, We were most
• 50:25
  Speaker 7: of the way there.
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: We just had to codify it.
• 50:33
  Speaker 7: And so we were already a very prosperous nation when
• 50:38
  Speaker 7: we won our independence, when we drove out the occupying
• 50:41
  Speaker 7: British army, So we already work seen as a prosperous nation.
• 50:50
  Speaker 7: Now we're also being seen on the world stage as
• 50:53
  Speaker 7: a military nation. People in this country know how to fight,
• 51:01
  Speaker 7: so we started to get asked to come in and intercede.
• 51:05
  Speaker 7: A French revolution being a great example of it. By
• 51:11
  Speaker 7: the time Napoleon comes along, he won't mess with the
• 51:17
  Speaker 7: United States, because being a free people, we were able
• 51:25
  Speaker 7: to self associate and do things that we thought were just.
• 51:30
  Speaker 4: And so.
• 51:32
  Speaker 7: That is that is what drove us, and so very
• 51:36
  Speaker 7: quickly in the history of the United States, we became
• 51:42
  Speaker 7: an important country in the world. And we didn't make
• 51:47
  Speaker 7: it west further west than the Ohio River at that point,
• 51:53
  Speaker 7: but we were already seen as an important place, and
• 51:56
  Speaker 7: you wanted the United States at your back. And this
• 52:01
  Speaker 7: is what Washington was warning about, is be judicious and
• 52:04
  Speaker 7: have oversight who our allies are. This is why the
• 52:08
  Speaker 7: Senate has to approve treaties, this is why the Senate
• 52:14
  Speaker 7: was supposed to collect taxes. Don't do that anymore now
• 52:20
  Speaker 7: they're popularly elected him. It's all sorts of things that
• 52:23
  Speaker 7: have put us where we are today off of where
• 52:26
  Speaker 7: we were supposed to be in the founding of the nation. Anyway,
• 52:32
  Speaker 7: much more interesting than just picking on Tommy Massey, who
• 52:35
  Speaker 7: generally speaking, in most cases, I like what he stands for.
• 52:40
  Speaker 7: In this case, I think he's just being caught in
• 52:42
  Speaker 7: a corner. Till the we do it again tomorrow at
• 52:46
  Speaker 7: five Eastern I'm Joe Thomas. So long and thanks for
• 52:49
  Speaker 7: all the fish.
• 52:51
