• 0:07
  Speaker 1: and podcasting. This is America with Rich Valdez.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: What's up America. I am Rich Valdes Valdez with an
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: s at Rich Valdez on all of the social media.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: Welcome to our program this evening. If you want to
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: join me on the phone, feel free give me a call.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Eight seven seven Valdes one, eight seven seven Valdes one.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: And I want to get into a bunch of stuff tonight.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Of course. It's an honor and a pleasure to be
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: here with you. It's a blessing to be with my
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: audience and I always appreciate that. And I want to
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: jump right in because State of the Union, right, we're
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: talking about that. Plus there's some breaking news. The FBI
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: has arrested a former Air Force pilot that has been
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: training Chinese agents. More on that later. Maybe we can
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: get General Blaine Holt to join us. He's a former
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Air Force general that could talk about this. Let's see
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: if we line that up for this week. And I
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: also want to get into my State of the Union stuff,
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: of course, and I want to talk about this stuff
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: that you've seen wal to wall coverage on this woman
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: who was pulled out of a car for obstructing ice
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: officers in Minnesota. And equally, I'm sure you've seen wal
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: to wall coverage of a sixteen year old girl getting
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: beaten by two other girls for not answering a question
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: about ice. No, you haven't seen that. I wonder why
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: there's not wal to wall coverage of that one. Right,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: very similar incident. Just one was the cops doing their jobs,
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: and this one was two girls acting like thugs, beating
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: up this poor girl because her boyfriend said when he
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: grows up, he wants to be an ice agent.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Now, whether it was.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Tongue in cheek or not, you don't do that. But
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: we're going to get into that in a couple of segments.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Right now, I want to jump right in because I
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: believe President Trump done all this magnus. They don't beat
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: though the forty fifth and forty seventh president of these
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: United States. I believe President Trump has outsmarted the bad
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: guy yet again. Mm hm. Now, is it unfair for
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: me to call the Democrats the bad guys? All right,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: maybe it is, But his political adversaries, how about that?
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: President Trump lays it out beautifully in the State of
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: the Union, he gets Democrats on board with him, sets
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: it up. He says, it's about time we stop Congress
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: people from enriching themselves by being able to vote on
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: legislation that they get insider information on and being allowed
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: to go purchase these stocks and make money on that
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: insider information. And this is currently not prohibited, whereas you
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: have I don't know how many dozens and dozens and
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: dozens of Congress people that are loaded. They go in
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: with this to their name, and they come out with
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: a boatload of cash. Some of them go in rich,
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: come out even richer. Now am I criticizing the fact
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: that we have Congress. No, I think Congress is great.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: You should run if you want to make a lot
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: of money. You just you can't say a lot of
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: things right because you start saying what you really think,
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: and then you might get yourself in trouble. But I
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: will say this, President Trump, lead this thing out.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: As we ensure that all Americans can profit from a
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: rising stock market, let's also ensure that members of Congress
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: cannot corruptly profit from using insider information.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: They stood up for that. I can't believe it. I
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: can't believe it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Did Nancy Pelosi stand up if she is here, doubt
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: it pass the Stop Insider Trading Act without delay.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: I wasn't sure if anybody, even on this side.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Was going to applaud for that.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: I was very impressed, Thank you.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: I'm very impressed.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Well, Lew Some say it's a booby trapp. I don't
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: think it was a booby trap. I think he gave
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: an opportunity for the Democrats to expose themselves to the
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: American people. Right, And he says, hey, look who's not
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: down with Congress not enriching themselves. And you see Democrats
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: getting up and they're applauding.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: You see Elizabeth Warren, who he calls pocahunters, PoCA hunters,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and others that are applauding this idea because they've been
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: trying to champion that cause as well. Right, this is
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: something AOC has been very passionate about. AOC all out crazy,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: my least favorite congressman for the Bronx and Queens, all
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: out crazy herself, Alexandro Coscia cortesk. So this is not
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: a Democrat Republican issue. This is a America first issue
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: in my opinion, that is bipartisan and I'm bolao right.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: From both sides, you see people getting involved. However, in
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: that same momentum, in his next line, he talks about
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: how this poor girl, Irena Zarutska, was sitting on the
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: train on her way home from work and was assassinated
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: by this man, murdered in very cold blood. Now, this
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: is something that I don't like to get into these
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: types of stories, because who likes a sad story. I
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: like to joke around too much. But I remember watching
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: this and it broke me on the inside. That girl
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: is twenty three years old at the time. My big girl,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: she's twenty three years old. Same thing. My girl never
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: met a job that was too good for her. She'll
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: work in this, and work in that, and do that,
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: and then go get a fast food job on the side,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: just to do what she wants to do to be
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: financially independent. She's always been a hustler. Straight through college,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: She's worked. And I got to tell you, seeing that
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: girl at her little hat on her uniform looked like
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: she worked in a restaurant. My kids worked in a
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: bunch of restaurants. I got to tell you, I was like,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: oh my gosh, this poor girl's there minding her business,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: puts her her ear pods in, and then the unthinkable happens.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: And it's all on camera, the camera from the train.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: And if you don't remember this, I'm not playing it,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: but you can read the articles about it. Absolutely horrific,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: absolutely horrific. And President Trump acknowledges this person's mother, saying
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: we're sorry, but you know what, the first job of
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: government is to protect the citizens and not illegal aliens.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: And everybody should be able to get behind that. And
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: while the guy wasn't an illegal alien, the point was,
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: you've got to protect the American citizens. And he invites
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: everybody who supports this idea of standing up to say, yeah, right,
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: it's the job of the government to keep the population safe.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Guess who visibly doesn't want to stand up? A whole
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: mass of Democrats, I think all.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: Of them, arrested over a dozen times and was released
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: through no cash bail, stood up and viciously slashed a knife.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Through her neck and body.
• 7:22
  Speaker 4: No one will ever forget there were people on that train.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: No one will ever.
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: Forget the expression of terror on IRENA's face as she
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: looked up at her attacker in the last seconds.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Of her life.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: She died instantly.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: She had escaped a brutal war, only to be slain
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: by a hardened criminal set free to kill in America,
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: came in through open borders. Missus Zaretska. Tonight, I promise
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: you we will ensure justice for your magnificent daughter, Irena.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: How do you not stand?
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: How do you not stand?
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: I'm asking this Congress.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: What a bad look this is. I think they set
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: themselves up. They absolutely set themselves up. He did the
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: setup with Pelosi getting everybody on board. Being a unifier, right,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: really being a president that's trying to use patriotism to
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: unite people, and instead they come right in and say
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: not getting up. Some of those Democrats in Congress were
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: three or four seats away from this woman. And let
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: me tell you that's just uncouth, right, I mean, do
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: you want to be that guy? I don't like standing
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: ovations like the next guy. I really don't. I want
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: to get through things. I don't want to be up
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: and down, up and down. I'm with you. However, if
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: there's a grieving mother there whose daughter was killed for
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: the world to see, I mean, brutally for no reason,
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: zero reason, you've got to tell me and remember this
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: is the case for that guy long long dreads, he
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: walks away, and he says, I got that white girl good.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: It's caught on the camera audio on that on that train.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Unreal?
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Unreal? Or was a bus? What it was? Public transportation?
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: All I could say is for these Democrats, it's a disgrace, right,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: It's absolutely disgraceful that you wouldn't actually applaud or console
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: or say I'm sorry, or look like you're somehow contrite
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: that this happened to someone. I don't care who you are, right,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: you could be uh uh. This is why I always
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: say I don't hate the Democrats. How could I hate
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: the Demo the one I was born in Brooklyn, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: I grew up in Jersey. How can I hate Democrats?
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: I've been surrounded by that my whole life. I always
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: said I'd probably never get a date in the world
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: if if I if I hated Democrats. But the reality
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: is the balls that it takes for you to sit there,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: hard faced in front of the mother who lost her
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: daughter and just be like, mmm, I hate Trump more
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: than I love your kid. I hate Trump more than
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: standing up for what's right. I hate Trump more than
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: giving you the respect you deserve as a grieving mother.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Big fail. I believe that swing districts. I believe that
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: people that are apolitical, people that don't like politics and
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: don't like politicians, and people don't even like Trump, they're
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: gonna say when they see these videos, social media campaign ads,
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: that type of thing. They're gonna see this stuff and
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: they're gonna say, bad luck, really bad ye man, biem
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: bie man, like my mother would tell me, by mine,
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: by bye man. Anyway, I'm going to continue, so ed Trumpito.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: He gets into this speech, longest State of the Union ever.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: And I've been in the room with President Trump on
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: an number of occasions where he's been the keynote and
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: with notes, without notes, he can go off prompter. This
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: guy's good for two, three, sometimes three and a half hours.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: He's good at it. He's good at it. He's entertaining
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: people bare leaving leave the room. Why Because A he's entertaining.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: B he's informative. He also has this ability that few people,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: unless you've been in one of those rooms, have the ability.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: He has the ability to switch from serious policy discussion
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: to making jokes to being petty. I mean, all the
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: gamut of what Trump is able to do. And again
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: the pettiness that feeds the red meat, right, you have
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: so many people are like, that's what I'm talking about.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: I always say he's the talk radio president. Right, he
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: comes up with nicknames just like we do in talk radio.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: So I think very good speech. Did he leave anything
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: on the table? I think he could have been a
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: little more unifying, But again, did we need much much
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: more beyond Can we stand up and applaud this for
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: this woman in honor this woman, the dad and the
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: young daughter. I mean, there were so many people there
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: that he did the right thing, highlighting the best of
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: America even through the worst of circumstances. I thought that
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: was classy, and I think that's really what America is
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: all about.
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: We want to live in a country where we support
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: our fellow man. Right, whether you believe that in that
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Christian principle or not, of loving that neighbor, it should
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: be one we live by, that we stand by, that
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: we embrace, and we shouldn't be And I'm talking I'm
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: preaching to myself, right, I am the guy I hate
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: elevator conversations. You would think, man, you talked for a living,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: you must like to talk. I don't. I don't like
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: talking on airplanes. I don't like talking in the elevator.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I don't even know. There's a lot of times
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I don't like talking to strangers. If you're with me
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: in my group, Gray, you're my boy. If I know
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: you have oh hey, how you been cool, we could
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: talk for an hour. But oftentimes just strangers, I'm just
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: a little bit suspicious. You know, my Project Veritas days,
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: I never know what people are up to. Anyway. That's
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: that I want to move on, because before Trump wraps
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: it up, he trades barbes with the hecklers. That's right,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: Congresswoman ill hand Omar now il han Omar. She is
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: the congresswoman I was gonna say, the congressman from Somalia.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, technically she is from Somalia. She came here
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: as as a refugee because both President Clinton and President
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Biden honestly have this in common, where they had these
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: failed military actions that Marcho'd say, military actions that went south,
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: if you will, and she came here as a refugee
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: right black Hawk down Mogadishu. She came here following that
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: debacle at marines killed in that one and then President
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Biden had his his own moment with the abby Gate
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: incident right where you had in Afghanistan, the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: That was something that needed to be done, but the
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: execution of it was what was disastrous in my opinion,
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: and thirteen US military service personnel there killed. So this
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: was he did the same thing. He said, sure, let's
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: bring all the Afghan interpreters back home as refugees as well.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Hundreds of thousands, I believe the number was or one
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: hundred and something thousand. She comes in as a refugee
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: to a country that I believe has given her a
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: good life. She entered Congress had a net worth of
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: you know, like most people that work not a lot,
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: has one today of thirty million plus dollars. She's done well.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: She's a United States congresswoman. Would you hate a country
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: that afforded you all of that opportunity? Now, maybe I'm
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: being too bold to say she hates the country, but
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: she definitely takes a lot of shots at this country,
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: that's for sure. And what's interesting, or moreover, I should say,
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: she's got her colleague there, right, Rashida Talaib, And they
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: start heckling President in trunk during the State of the Union.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: This is nothing new, but it is always uncouth no
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: matter what right. It's just in poor form.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: Watch this oval of cuipment, Alans, in many cases, drug lords,
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: murders all over our country. They're blocking the removal of
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: these people out of our country.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: And you should be ashamed.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Of your saying it was right on this one. Right,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: that's disgraceful, and I think most people are gonna see
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: it that way unless you're a real partisan, what I'm
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: gonna call a radical leftist. Right. If you're one of those, hey,
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I've had friends that are like that. They typically don't
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: like me for long, but I have no issue they
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: are who they are. I'm not going to stop being
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: your friend because I disagree with your politics and your
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: take on America. I give people that freedom to make
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: bad choices and hopefully they figure it out. But straight ahead,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Another FBI raid going on, this time in the home
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: of the LA Superintendent of Schools. A guy named Carvalu.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I guess he's Portuguese Carvaljo in English, and mister Carvallu
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: is h He's got a lot to say. More interestingly,
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: there's a huge number of people that are currently being
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: sued for sexual improprieties in California, and they all happen
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: to be teachers. More on that towards the end of
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: the show, Straight Ahead, I want to bring in our guest,
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: Professor Nick Giordano's going to join us for his analysis
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: on the state of the Union, where we're going to
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: talk about a number of things that went down. Keep
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: it locked right here, I'm Rich Valdez.
• 16:54
  Speaker 4: If you agree with this statement, then stand up and
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: show your support. The first duty of the American government
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: is to protect American citizens, not illegal areas.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: What's up, America? Welcome back, It's Rich Valdez. We continue
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: the conversation, and did in fact the Democrats fall for it?
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: Did they take the bait? Did they decide to show
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: America what they're really made out of? Professor Nick Jordano
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: ways in. Professor Nick Jordano is professor political Science at
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: SAFA Community College here in New York. One of the
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: few conservatives in New York. He does a bunch of
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: other really fun things as well. Professor Nick Jordano, host
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: of the PAS Report.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Welcome back, It's notf ranch always glad to be with you.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir, so let's get into this because State of
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: the Union, I want to get into this recap. I
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: was just sharing with the audience. I think that the
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: President not so much set a trap, but more so
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: really set a scenario for the American people to say,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: do we agree with this or do we not agree
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: with it? And Democrats really, in my opinion, they really
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: jumped in head first saying yes, we support the killing
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: of innocent people on trains and subways, when they wouldn't
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: get up and applaud for this mom who grieving mom
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: who just lost her daughter, Arena Zarutzka, your thoughts, well, I.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Mean, if I was a political advisor to Democrats, I
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: would have been on the phone last night texting them
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: during the State of the Union, get your butts out
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: of o seats and start applauding because you look terrible
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: right now. You know, there's certain things that elevate above politics.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: We all understand that Republicans and Democrats have differences on
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: the issues. But when you're talking about a girl that
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: came here from the Ukraine to escapeboard, to escape death,
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: and she comes here on a train she stabbed in
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: the neck, and Democrats don't applaud when Trump calls her out,
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: you know, gives her her praise, saying this should not
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: have happened in the United States. Her parents in that
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: room crying, the mother was crying, and Democrats just sat
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: on their hands. I think that's disgraceful, and you know,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: I don't understand the logic behind it, because there's certain
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: things that are simply common sense, and that's one of
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: those things that are common sense that you stand and
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: applaud to make sure that you recognize the death of
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: this young girl, that how she died so needlessly. And
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Democrats are more upset that Trump accidentally said that the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: guy that killed her was an illegal immigrant, where no,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: he was just released from police custody numerous times and
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: a mental institution. And yet they ignore Irena and how
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: she died so senselessly.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, listen, I believe you know, oftentimes in this
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: business that we're in, we talk about how the other
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: side can be tone deaf or they say that we're
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: tone deaf. But really, in this case, I think this
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: is really the height of crazy, right. I really think,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: you know, with that woman just feed away from her,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: certain congress people just cold shoulder to this lady that
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: did nothing right. She did nothing to them.
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: But it's not new. I mean, don't forget during the
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: last State of the Union address where they didn't even
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: stand up for the little black kid that had cancer
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: who wanted to be a police officer. They sat on
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: their hands with that, and they look terrible. And yet
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: you know, it seems there are a lot of Americans
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: that don't care about, you know, any type of just respect, right,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's what it comes down to, just decency
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: and respect within society.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a good point. I'd forgotten about that. I
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: remembered when that happened, and I remember this, and it
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: seems to be to me that this I may be
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: too close to this, right, I just may be too
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: close to thinking that this is going to really harm
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: the Democrats. But what are your thoughts? Do you think
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: this is going to hurt them in the midterms? Because
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: I feel like this is a campaign ad that just
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: won't end.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't think it will hurt them necessarily. And
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: what I mean by that is, yes, Democrats made the
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: Republican's job a lot easier by cutting campaign ads. I mean,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: when President Trump just asked that one question does the
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: government solely exist to protect the American people over illegal immigrants,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: and everyone stood up in employed except for Democrats. That
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: right there is your campaign ad. You're going to see
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: that in every district where it's a close race, every
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: purple district throughout the United States. But we also have
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: to recognize that the left is energized, that the left
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: is going out to vote. There is no doubt about
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: it that they're the ones that are energized. The base
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: is motivated, they're organized, and so they're going to cast
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: their votes. It's how do the people in the middle,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: How did they feel about it? And I think many
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: in the middle will be turned off by it, But
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: the question is are they going to turn out and vote.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: We've seen disengagement from the political process over the course
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: of the last several years, particularly in midterm cycles. Republicans
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: don't do as well in midterm cycles, and it's usually
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: the party in power that loses. The only exception to
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: the rule was on two occasions Judge W. Bush in
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: two thousand and two and I believe Dwight D. Eisenhower.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: So Republicans are already facing an uphill battle Democrats. It
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: seems that JFK party, the Bill Clinton party that's long debt.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: This is now the Democratic Socialists of America party, And
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I think Republicans need to start framing it that way,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: like this is serious and the midterm elections do matter,
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: and what do you want to see happen in the
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: United States. Democrats don't have a real platform. Their platform
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: is I have Trump, wey going to impeach him. We're
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: going to try and get rid of them. We want
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: to defund DICE, we want to protect the legal immigrants,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: we want boys competing in women's sports. So Democrats platform
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: is toxic and Republicans need to start exploiting it, calling
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: it what it is. This is nothing more than a
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: way to start to dismantle the United States of America.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: And I think that if Republicans don't play it from
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: that angle, they're in for a road awakening.
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: Professor Nick Jordano, you just mentioned something that I think
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: is key. He said this may not hurt them, and
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: maybe right sadly that it may not hurt them, especially
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: amongst their base independence. I think it will move the needle.
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: But do you think that this is going to continue
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: to be the defining issue. I think in Trump's reelection,
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: this was the defining issue, not crime per se. Crime
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: was the byproduct of illegal immigration. We've seen a lot
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: of improvement in illegal immigration, so one would think that
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: the electorate may not be as hot on that issue.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: But to me, it seems like many people, at least
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: in the base are as hot on this issue as
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: ever they are, And.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: The question is how motivated are they to get to
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: the polls though, So we know that when Trump is
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: on the ballot, Trump's voters turnout, and they turn out
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: ms we sorted in the last election cycle. But when
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: Trump is not on the ballot, then we see candidates
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: that do suffer because they don't have that extra push
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: that Trump gives them. Now, this is going to be different.
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Don't forget President Trump. He is a showman and he
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: plans on doing one of those you know, Republican style
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: conventions before the midterm elections. He's going to try and
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: energize We already know he's going to go coast to
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: coast and campaign for a lot of candidates. But as
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: far as Republican voters go, part of the problem is
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: when you are successful, and you have success early on.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: So take the border for instance, where border crossings are
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: down ninety nine percent. People tend to forget that success.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: They don't reward you know, when it comes to politics.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: One of the things that really stinks is that you
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: don't get rewarded on successes. You get rewarded on highlighting
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: the problem and saying how you're going to try and
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: solve that problem. But once you solve the problem, people
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: tend to forget about it. Right. So immigration was the
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: biggest issue in twenty twenty four. It got millions to
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: turn out to vote for President Trump. However, I think
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: it's going to come down to economics. You know, when
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: it comes to the midterm elections. People are going to
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: start making their decisions in July, August, since particularly September,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: and they're going to say, is my economic livelihood better
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: today than it was a year ago? And that's what
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: it's going to come down to. But people do have
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: short term memories, and you don't really get rewarded for
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: having success early on, you know.
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: All right, So two things there. Number one is I
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: think you're right, as Clinton said, it's the economy stupid.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: I think that's always a thing. President Trump making a
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: point of saying, you know, gas was down, and this
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: was down, and those things were all terrific. He even
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: went as far as saying, we're getting beef down slowly,
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: and I haven't seen that yet. Personally. It hasn't reached
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: me in Jersey, So I haven't seen that in New
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: York City. I haven't seen that anywhere. And I go
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: to a steakhouser two every now and again. So you
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: tell me, have you seen the cost of beef coming down?
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: And if so, where do I go to get a deal?
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Well? No, And that's this is the frustrating thing, because
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: there are several reasons why beef prices are so high.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: One is because of a drought that took place over
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the last several years in the Midwest in cattle country,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: and that drought was really harmful. And listen, that's out
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: of the control of President Trump's hands. It was out
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: of the control of President Biden's hands. You can't control
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: the wet unless you're China. Then you're gonna start trying
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: to control it. But when we look at it, you
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: know that that's something that really raised prices of beef.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: But also Democrat policies understand that the whole climate agenda,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: the cows one of the biggest sources of pollution is
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: methane coming from the cows, and so they basically made
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: farming much more difficult for the cattle ranchers. We've seen
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: cattle stock drop and it takes time to bring cattle
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: stock back up. I mean, let's be honest here, it's
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: not like a quick process where you just plan some
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: seeds and they grow. You got to have cattle baiting
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: with each other, and you got to wait till the
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: cattle grows enough. So I think it's going to be
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: a while before beef prices get down. I think though,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: gas prices, I think is the most important because that's
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: something that people see immediately right when they're at the
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: pumps and they're holding that pump and they're just sitting
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: there looking at the price, continuing to go and go
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: and go. If you bring gas prices down, that's immediate relief.
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: So I think President Trump should really take gas prices hard,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: try and get them down to like a dollar seventy five.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: If he could get them down to a dollar fifty,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: I think that's huge, but also carries risk because the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: cheaper guess gets, the more difficult it becomes for our
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: oil producers to get the gas out of the ground
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: because the loans won't be able to be covered, and
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: you know, there's not a lot of profit there. Yeah, yeah,
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: gets reduced, it does, and so it's like a catch
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: twenty two. But again, I think it's all about elections
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: in this cycle. I think it's all about the economy.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: I think that's going to be the main thing that
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: gets people to vote. Again, I don't think that the
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: left is voting on the economics of anything. I think
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: that they're voting just with emotion. They despise Trump, they
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: despise Republicans. Ultimately, they despise the United States of America
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: and Western civilization, and so they're energized to come out
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: and vote against that. President Trump and Republicans need to
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: make this a pivotal election year that I know. We
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: say it every time, this is one of the most
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: important election years ever.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Each time it does.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: But the stakes are really high, Like, do Americans want
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: to live through another impeachment? How many impeachments? Are we
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: going to say impeachments? It's becoming far school at this point.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: And yet that's exactly what Democrats are campaigning on amgos.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: We're coming right back with Professor Nick Giordano, host of
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: the PAS Report. And when we come back, Professor, I
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: want you to see a video. I was scrolling through
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: the social media and I saw a video of President
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Trump last night at the State of the Union, followed
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: immediately by almost an identical speech by President Clinton back
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: in the nineties, about thirty years ago. And I thought, man,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: he should have probably used Clinton's words when he did
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: that speech to see what reaction he would have gotten.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: So keep it locked right here on. Migos are coming
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: right back. It's rich Valdees.
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: To agree with this.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: Statement, then stand up and show your support. The first
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: duty of the American government is to protect American citizens,
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: not illegal areas.
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: Not only in the states most heavily affected, but in
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: every place in this country. Are rightly disturbed by the
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. The jobs
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants.
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: The public service they use impost burdens on our taxpayers.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards,
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before,
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: to illegal aliens. In the budget I will present to you,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: we will try to do more to speed the deportation
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: of illegal aliens who a arrested for crimes, to better
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: identify illegal aliens in the workface, as recommended by the
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: commission headed by a former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan. We are
• 31:00
  Speaker 5: a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self defeating for
• 31:08
  Speaker 5: a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse
• 31:10
  Speaker 5: of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years,
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: and we must do more to stop it.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: He goes, welcome back. We continue our conversation with Professor
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Nick Giordano, professor of political science at Suffolk Community College
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: in New York. And yes he is a conservative, Yes
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: he is a tenured professor, and yes he's still with
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: us right now, Professor, I want to continue that video
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: that we just saw of President Trump followed by the
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: video of President Clinton. This juxtaposition, to me, is is
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: not much of a juxtaposition because they seem to be
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: saying the same exact thing. Yet would think that they
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: were both radical, right wing Republicans.
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: Well, I think what you said.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: Before the break leading into it is actually something that
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: would have been great to do. It's actually a brilliant
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: idea that Rich Fealtez put out there.
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: He should have just read off Clinton's speech word for
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: word to see what the reaction would be.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: And I think it's clear that this is no longer
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: a Democratic party that we could consider part of moderate
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: or centrist or anything like that. I mean, when you
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: look at the nineteen nineties Democrats, and I'm talking even
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: about like people like Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, if
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: you listen to the speeches, they sound like right wing
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: radicals in today's day and age. And I think that's
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: probably one of the more fascinating aspects to this, when
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: we look at what's happened and what's transpired in a
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: Democrat party. Because President Trump is not a conservative.
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: He never was.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, the guy was a Democrat up until twenty
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: twelve when he switched political parties. He's not someone that
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: is idyologically tied down to Trump. Everything is negotiable. He
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: openly states that, and he states, you know, I'll start
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: on the far side of one end because I know
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: during negotiations, you're gonna build compromises in along the way.
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: And yet Democrats have made him public enemy number one.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: They don't realize that he's someone that you can negotiate
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: with at maybe half of what you want, maybe even
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: a little more sometimes. And they've gone so farther left
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: to see who could out trump Trump. But they've been
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: able to move the entire debate of the United States
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: as well. They have redefined what it means to be
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: right wing and centrist. Don't forget during the Clinton era,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: we were talking about, you know, pro life, pro choice,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: but everyone agreed, you know, maybe twelve to sixteen weeks
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: and that should be the maximum. Today it's about, well,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: should we have abortion up until childbirth? And you know,
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Democrats maybe even talk about post birth abortions like it's
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: really sick and demented when you think about it. But
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: that's how far we've come. No Democrat would have taken
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: seriously men and women's sports. You go back to the nineties,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: they would have left and said, we're not even wasting
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: our time talking about it. And yet today it's an issue.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: If you go back to the nineties, it was the
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Democrats that were championing the Defensive Marriage Act and look
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: at where correct today the correct act on that too.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: So without all that being said, because that those are
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: all really good points, and I want to kind of
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: stay there. If if Democrats are I guess Republicans have
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: remained conservative in terms of conserving their position on things
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: and tradition in America, and Democrats have gone further to
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: the left, which is what I believe is going on.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Talk to me about the effectiveness of this, because I
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: think they're looking at the long game. And when I
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: say there, I'm talking about AOC Bernie Sanders. You know
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: that that crew, the all out crazy wing of the party.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: But there's also you know, this competing event yesterday that
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: I've seen very little coverage of, if any at all.
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: They announced that they were going to have their own
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: State of the Union outside the capital and I didn't
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: see anybody there. I didn't hear anything even.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Is that the one with the frauds in the draff?
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the one. So what do you think of that?
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: Is this movement as successful as it ought to be?
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Or am I underestimating it?
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: I'd say be careful underestimating it?
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: And what I point to is look at his own
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: like mayor Mom Donnie here in New York. So he
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: was someone that was actually very honest and open about
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: his positions. He didn't hide. He wasn't an Abigail Spanburger
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: in Virginia. Right, she campaigned as a moderate. She's a
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: radical leftist with her policies. You look at Mamdani, he
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: was very open as to what he wanted to do,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: and he did get millions of people to vote for him, right.
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, he defeated three other challengers combined, and he
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: did increase voter turnouts. So the message is appealing to
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: a large segment of society. Now some will back on
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: me and say, well, you know, Professor Jordano, that's just
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: New York City, it's you know, to the left. Well,
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: we saw it in Virginia, we see it in New Jersey.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: We do see it throughout the country. And I don't
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: think people realize that the messaging is working for Democrats
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: because we have a failed education system that never taught
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: an entire generation of the importance of America of limited government,
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: self government, what it means, what the point of federalism is,
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Why the founders created the system the way they do. Instead,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: they've denigrated the United States. They they've instilled this disdain
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: for the United States, and so you have a large
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: segment that is now a voting age that's very bitter
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and resentful. You factor that in with obviously you look
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: at who the Democrats base of support is. It's college educated.
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: It's those were college degrees. They went through these radical institutions,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: they got indoctrinated, and so now we're seeing it in
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: the voting patterns. So while their ideas are crazy to me,
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: while the Democratic Party has certainly morphed into this progressive
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: socialist party, I don't undestimate it because I know how
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: powerful the messaging can be. And it's still it's based
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: on emotion. It's an emotional appeal. Republicans use reason and logic,
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: Democrats use emotion. Emotion actually does work. It's a very
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: powerful motivator, you know, and trying to be empathetic and
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: compassion and you want to be a good human being,
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: right and if you don't support this, well that means
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: you're a Nazi and a fascist. Nobody likes to be
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: called the Nazi and a fascist. You know, white supremacist
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Larry Elda, the blackface of white sopremacy.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: Unbelievable. Yeah, listen, I think you're you're right on that,
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: so and I think you're right. We should be cautious, right,
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: you know, because you make fun of them because it's
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: kind of silly. But at the same time, they're winning
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: elections and they raise tons of money and they're becoming
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: very wealthy in the process. So it to me, it
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: says you can't underestimate him. I make fun of AOC
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: all out crazy, my least favorite congress woman from the
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: Bronx and Queens on a regular basis. But guess what
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: AOC she's right up there with the top fundraisers in Congress.
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: She's a rock star. When people want Abaga Spamberger, I
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: can't say her name. But when she ran last time,
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: she said no, no, no, no, AOC for me, I'll lose.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: She lost This time she said AOC for me please.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: She did an event with AOC, got some campaign cash.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: AOC helped her get across the finish line in Virginia.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: So I think we'd be fools to underestimate the power
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: of the far left of Bernie Sanders wing of the party.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: Where does that put the Republican Party in your estimation, professor.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Well put them in a tough spot.
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: I mean again, Trump knows how to motivate the base,
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: but he's not going to be on the ticket. And
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: part of our Republican problem is still say, look at
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: the other party, they're so crazy?
• 38:54
  Speaker 3: Why not?
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: Is that bad? So just vote for us? And that's
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: not the way people vote. You got to appeal to them,
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: you got to touch You've got to give am issues.
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: So to give you an example, New gingrich nineteen nineties
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: contract with America. He gave you know, ten precise points
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: of exactly what the Republican Party was going to fight for,
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: and the Republican Party did just that and they were.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: Rewarded for it.
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: Republicans don't have a new contract with America. I have
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: one on my website pasreport dot com. But we need
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: a new contract with America. We need specifics about what's
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: going to be done with fiscal responsibility, with reigning in
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: the deep state, you know, starting to limit this out
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: of control bureaucracy and taking the statutory authority back, voting
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: the Save Act very important. Republicans need to get over
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: that finish line. The biggest problem Republicans have and I'm
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: talking about the Republicans in Congress, is that they haven't
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: done much of what they promised to do throughout the years,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: and so a lot of Republican voters they get turned off.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: They begin to just stay home, saying my vote doesn't
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: matter because they're not doing what I want. And what
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: I mean by that is if you look at fiscal responsibility,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: well the deck keeps on growing. You look at when
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: Congress tried to cut nine billion dollars worth of DOGE cuts.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: We're talking about nine billion dollars in a six point
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: eight trillion dollar budget, and Republicans had a difficult time
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: getting that across the That should have been a layup.
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: That should have been a layup. You have to give
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: something that fires Republicans up and gets them out to vote.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: And I think voter idea. I think this idea of
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: the Save Act is something that motivates them because everyone
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: is behind it except for the progressive wing at a
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: Democrat Party.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: And Zoron Mamdani right in the work.
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: Unless you're shoveling snow.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: If you're shoveling snow, you must prove you're a citizen.
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: You know this is an issue that I saw a
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: meme today and I thought it was brilliant and I
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: hope that it makes its way around. And it said
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: stop Trump from stealing another election vote for voter ID
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: paper ballots the same day results. And I thought that's
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: brilliant and if you could fool people into that, great
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: do you think that most Americans? I'll preface this with
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: a story and I wish I had time to put
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: the clip in, but there is there's a guy out there.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: I forget the name of this channel, but it's funny
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: and I check it out. I'm scrolling and there he is,
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: and he's in the street and he's like, Hi, we're
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: with Second Chances something or other and we're trying to
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: help some of these people that have been deported by
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: ICE to come back home. Will you help us? And
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: they're like sure. He's like, will you sign our petition?
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: And they're like yeah, they start signing. He's like, this
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: is you know, I don't know Hector Salazar and Hector
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: was deported because he killed five people in El Salvador
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: and he's part of MS thirteen. But we want to
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: give him a second chance. We believe in second chances.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: And most of them go okay, and they keep going.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: And I've watched like six or seven of these videos
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: and his follow up once they're filling it out, he
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: always says, now, would you mind, would you be able
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: to help us with quartering them, with housing them, because
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: when they come back, we might need some interim housing
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: for them that could be a couple of months. Can
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: they stay with you? And most of them go, oh no, sorry,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: and they give them back the clipboard. Today I saw
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: one where this lady was like, sure, of course. She
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: was like, I believe in second chances and if my
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: husband is okay, one percent and she said, but just
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: check with us first, And I thought, wow, these people
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: really do buy this stuff. I'm not letting Ms thirteen
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: with five bodies under the belt into my house, are you.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: I'm not letting any strangers into my house, so I
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: don't care if they're a criminal or not, you know,
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: not for nothing. This is the stupidity we have to
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: deal with it today's America. Like, my role is to
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: take care of my kids, to raise them to be
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: responsible human beings and to protect them. I'm not going
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: to invite strangers into my house. And I know exactly
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: who you're talking about. I can't recall his name off
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: top of my head. He did another video about abortion,
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: and he was talking about abortion. The lady had all
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: these abortion stickers on his car, and then he told
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: her that it was abortion for puppies, that we needed
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: to get rid of their puppies, which was like, you
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: can't abort puppies. That's inhumane, right, Like they got the
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: logic behind that. You're saying it's inhumane to abort puppies,
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: but it's not inhumane to abort human beings.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: But this is the insanity that we have to deal
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: with today. And that's what makes it a very dangerous
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: time in America because it seems like reason and common
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: sense has gone out the window. It no longer exists anymore.
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: And where this takes us, I don't know. But what
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: I do know is that if we don't make our
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: constitutional republic successful, if we don't succeed in with a
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: founding father's vision that we deviated far from, I could
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: guarantee you what comes next isn't going to be any better.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: And I could guarantee you that all these fools that
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: run and operate solely on emotion they're going to regret
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: it because sooner or later it doesn't matter, you know,
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: sooner or later it comes for them, and they're going
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: to witness that. So we have to smarten up as
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Americans and Republicans have to do a better job of
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: energizing people, of talking to people, explaining to people. Right now,
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: you have Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, White Americans, Asian Americans.
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: They're all hungry for a message. Most of them do
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: love America. They want America to thrive, they want America
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: to succeed. And yet Republicans continue to ignore areas. And
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: I don't know why, because I think the areas of Chicago,
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: the areas of New York, they're not set in stone
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: that they're blue. They can change. We've seen them change
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: over time. And Republicans need to get off their butts.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: They need to start talking about education, exposing the failures
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: in the education system, like one point five trillion dollars
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: a year and the results are less than twenty five
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: percent of students are proficient in the subject material. If
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: that is not an abject failure, I don't know what is.
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Like what other industry would we tolerate that in and
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: Republicans should put it to the voter, like, is this
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: acceptable to you? Is it acceptable to spend this much
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: money only twenty five percent in the student body is
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: proficient in the subject material? How can you say that
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: we should continue that structure going forward? And if you
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: say it's a failure, well what about every single government entity?
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: Do you want government involved in your healthcare? Like? Would
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: you want to get heart surgery in a system where
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: they're only twenty five percent proficient and dealing with heart surgeries?
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: That's a scary proposition, brother man.
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: But they want government to control healthcare, they want government
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: to control food, they want government to control all aspects
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: of our life. Well, government wasn't designed for all this,
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: especially our government, and that's why we don't. Nobody ever
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: deals with a government department, an agency, agency, I don't
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: care if it's federal, state, or local, and walks away
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: from it being like, wow, that was a really pleasant
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: eff I wish I could do that again.
• 45:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're one hundred percent right, Professor Nick Jordane.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: This is I guess my final question to you. Thanks
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: for being generous with your time. The other day we
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: saw SCOTUS ruling on tariffs very narrowly on the AIPA tariffs.
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: And there's a lot of speculation now about what happens
• 46:06
  Speaker 2: with the Supreme Court of the United States ruling on
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: the Fourteenth Amendment case that's before them on citizenship and
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: birthright citizenship. I've done some research into the Senators that
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: proposed this originally. It seems like the spirit of that
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: bill when it was a bill, before it was signed
• 46:24
  Speaker 2: into law, was what the Trump administration is talking about.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: I'm just curious to see how the political considerations. And
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: I know it's an a political court professor, but it
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: seems to me that every now and again they either
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: punt on things they don't want to talk about, or
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: they punt like they did with this, saying no, well,
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: on this AIPA, you can't do this, but you can
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: do all these other things, and you know, making sure
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: it's like you can still do a whole lot, but
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: you can't do this. We did our jobs, thank you
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: very much, have a night, get you.
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: Could do all these tariffs, so that these statutes right.
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: Here, Yeah, it seems so so fake, so phony, and
• 47:02
  Speaker 2: so fraudulent. But what do you think happens with this
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: Fourteenth Amendment scenario.
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: You know, it's really hard to tell, to be honest
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: with you, and it's always hard to predict how the
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: Supreme Court's going to rule. I never pretend like I
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: know the which way they're going to rule, because I don't.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: And sometimes you get these issues where I think it's
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: actually clear. You know, the Fourteenth Amendment, it was for
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: black Americans. That's what it was solely meant for. That's
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: what it was meant at the time, and then it
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: got interpreted differently. And okay, find you interpreted differently, But
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: what do you do now? And I think that's the
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: difficult question. See if we go to something like gay marriage.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: You had the Supreme Court rule that gay marriage is
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: legal and it has to be upheld by every single
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: state they have to recognize it. And it was I
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: believe Anthony Kennedy was the deciding vote on that, and
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: he said, listen, this isn't a constitutional argument. It's just
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: a reflection of the way society is today. So you know,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: there's nothing constitutional about it. We're just saying, hey, you know,
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: this is just the way it is. How they're gonna
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: rule with this, I don't know. I have a feeling
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: it's going to go obviously one or two ways. I
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: think either they're gonna say, you know what, the statute
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: was misinterpreted. It was misinterpreted for over one hundred and
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: something years, and we need to rain that in. So
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: going forward, anyone that's born in the United States, well,
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: you're not a citizen unless you're born to American citizens.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: That you can't just be an anchor baby here in
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: the United States. It's not going to change the status
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: for people that were previously born here. It will change
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: for those forward in the future. So I think it's
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: either gonna rule that way or they're just gonna sit
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: there and say, listen, it might not be constitutional. We
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: think that, you know that the interpretation in you know,
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: eighteen sixty five or whenever, that it was meant for
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: black Americans. But because it's been so long that we've
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: allowed this to be interpreted this way, we're gonna stick
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: with it. It could go either way, and you're our
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: guess is as good as mine is how it goes.
• 49:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, yeah, mine too. I can come up with
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: a million scenarios, but I have no inside track, I
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: have no anything. I think that they should do the
• 49:10
  Speaker 2: right thing, and I think the right thing is that
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: to say, hey, look this has been wrong. Just like
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: what abortion the Roe v. Wade case, all right, when
• 49:17
  Speaker 2: they overturned that case, they said it was bad law.
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: We're overturning the case. You can't reverse the abortions that
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: have happened over the last fifty years, but you can say,
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: moving forward, this is how we're going to do it.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: The states are free to do what they want to do,
• 49:29
  Speaker 2: which they did. The Brewin decision I think was a
• 49:32
  Speaker 2: good thing, not as monumental, but still great. And this one,
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: I think is going to be a really big deal
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: and I'm super curious. I can't wait, honestly, because I
• 49:42
  Speaker 2: feel like this is still an incredibly hot button issue
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: in our country. You've got the left and the right,
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: and it kind of falls on those lines. There's some
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: people that are in between on the issue, but I
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: think it's a really hot button issue for sure.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, people need to be aware of that
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: this is actually turned into one hundred million dollar, hundreds
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: of millions of dollars to over a billion dollar industry
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: of people getting people here that are eight nine months
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: pregnant so that they could have their baby in the
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: United States, particularly China. We know that the Chinese Triads
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: and other groups actually do this and the human trafficking
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: that goes on or to have babies in the United States,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: so they get to claim citizenship, and I think that's
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: a big deal. People need to be aware of that
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: that it's not people that are seeking a better life.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: It's not people that are seeking you know, their love
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: for America and their loyal and patriotic Americans. It's people
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: that are getting here by devious means, for potentially devious purposes.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Really well put, Professor will leave it right there and
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: want to thank you for your time. You are a gentleman,

  Speaker 2: I appreciated my brother, godspeed to you, and he goes.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: We continue. There is more to come straight ahead. We're
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: just getting started. I'm rich Aldek. Welcome back America. Now
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: some Americans might soon be receiving a tariff refund check
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: sounds like a familiar idea. Right, Well, it was just
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: proposed in Congress as a new bill. Now you're asking yourselves,
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: why is this news, Rich Faldiz, I'm gonna tell you why.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: Why Because anthrom Pito has been talking about this forever.
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: He was saying, if we save money with Doge, we
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: could give that back in a Doge dividend. He's been
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: saying the tariffs as well, should be put into a
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: sovereign wealth fund that we can also get back to
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: the American people. He said a lot of things and
• 51:44
  Speaker 2: was criticized for them.
• 51:45
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 51:45
  Speaker 2: Matter of fact, one of the critics of the presidents
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: was Jasmine Crockett, congress woman from Texas who's running for
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: the United States Senate. Listen to her just a few
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: months ago, saying, nobody wants Trump's five thousand dollars.
• 51:59
  Speaker 4: Check this out, and Trump says he likes the idea
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: of giving some of the savings from doors back to
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: Americans as kind of a dividend.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: Would you support that?
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: Listen, He's just telling a lie. He's not the one
• 52:10
  Speaker 6: that had anything to do with the twelve hundred dollars
• 52:13
  Speaker 6: refunds that people had during the midst of COVID that
• 52:16
  Speaker 6: was done by a Democratic House and Democratic Senate. Right now,
• 52:19
  Speaker 6: what they're going to do is say, hey, we want
• 52:21
  Speaker 6: to give you a refund, but Congress won't let us
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: because they already know that there's just no money for that.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Right, So it wasn't news per se. Right. The real
• 52:31
  Speaker 2: news is that it's Jasmine Crockett now who is proposing
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: a new bill called the Payback Act. According to her,
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: she needs to introduce this legislation that would direct the
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: United States Treasury to refund Americans for the higher costs
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: that her bill says were caused by Trump's tariffs. Trump
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: brings in all this money that is a combination of
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: people paying for corporations for corporations, people that want to
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: buy foreign goods, and he says, We're gonna give this
• 53:05
  Speaker 2: money back to the American people, believe me. And now
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: Jasmin Crockett says the same thing Trump is saying, but
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: she's trying to make him the bad guy. Somehow. We
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: have almost two hundred billion dollars in this tariff account,
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: and now she's saying we should give that back to
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: the American people. Jas mccrockett, you are classic. I gotta
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: tell you anyway. That was her take on this. She
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: says that this is all because of the Supreme Court
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: weighing in and saying that this stuff was outside of
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: the purview of the president's office. Now you've got the
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: White House spokesman pushed asigh. He told Newsweek, I have
• 53:41
  Speaker 2: a quote right here. Listen to this. He says, Democrats
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: spent decades talking about lopsided free trade deals, reshoring the
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: middle class manufacturing jobs, and lowing lowering prescription drug prices.
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: President Trump used tariffs to actually deliver where Democrats were
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: only talking. So naturally, Democrats are resorting to gathering more
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: meaningless popcorn headlines. Pathetic but unsurprising, Well said brother, and
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: I would have thrown in and stealing our idea of
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: giving the money back to the American people. Right, that
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: was always the plan. Trump wants to give you money
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: back on four to one K so that everybody can
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: have a four to one K, including the government contributing.
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: He wants to give money back on tariffs. He wants
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: to give money back on doge. He wants you to
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: keep more of your taxes on tips. Right, it was
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: Congress that put some limitations there because they came up
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: with their formula and whatnot and did what politicians do.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: But I think the stuff that Trump puts out there
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: is pretty pretty straightforward. He thinks and acts like a
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: business person, and most business people don't want to pay taxes,
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: and he wants to transfer that to the American people.
• 54:50
  Speaker 2: I love that, love that about Trumpito, Now, I thought
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: that was pretty funny. I also want to go into
• 54:57
  Speaker 2: a different story here. Right. The other story was this fight. Right,
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: So woman removed forcibly from her car. Happened on her
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: three four weeks ago. She was in Minnesota. She's trying
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: to get away from Ice. She ends up in traffic.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: They're like, all right, get out. She's like, no, I'm disabled. Right,
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: she has this whole big fit. Anyway, this woman, she
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: got wall to wall coverage. They were saying Ice is
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: the Gestapo, this, that, and the third. But when two
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: teenagers approach a girl in school and say, hey, your
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: boyfriend said he wanted to be Ice when he grows up,
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: are you down with Ice? And when she says no comment,
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: they start pounding her in the head. Watch this, come on,
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: You've gotta be kidding me. This girl is attacked. She's
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: attacked by two other girls in school. If that was
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: your kid, you'd see it exactly the way I'm seeing it.
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: Who cares why she didn't do anything to those people
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: she refused to answer their their litmus test. Come on,
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: things don't work that way, not how we roll in life.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: And this is what should be receiving wall to wall
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: coverage across the country, that this middle school, high school
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: is ground zero for this stuff. This is likely happening
• 56:18
  Speaker 2: all over the place, and people are covering it up
• 56:20
  Speaker 2: because somebody saying good. Good. Even if you say good,
• 56:24
  Speaker 2: talk about it. Let's have it in the news media.
• 56:27
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen large reports about this on CNN. They
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: may have mentioned it, but nothing like what I saw there.
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: Where was every news outlet for days on end. What's
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: the difference here? That the girl was blonde that was
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: getting beaten up. And I'm not trying to push the
• 56:40
  Speaker 2: race card. I'm asking a legitimate question. If she were
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: brown like me, if she were black, if she were
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: a Muslim, if she were some other brand, right, some
• 56:50
  Speaker 2: other race. It seems like it's okay to beat up
• 56:53
  Speaker 2: white people. That's not news. No news here, no news here.
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: But oh, she was maybe she was with Ice, maybe not.
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: The jury's still out. Is that how we do this?
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: Are we actually fair and saying, hey, look, whether I
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: like it or I don't like it, that's wrong. We
• 57:11
  Speaker 2: got to call things out for what they are. Disgusting anyway.
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: This is why people call them the fake news media,
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: and Trump always says the fake news, the fake news
• 57:20
  Speaker 2: all the way at it back. But I want to
• 57:22
  Speaker 2: get into one more thing before we part ways, and hegos,
• 57:26
  Speaker 2: and it's this story. This is more more, less, the story,
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: more of video. All right. Somebody sends me. One of
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: our listeners, actually I think from Canada sent us this video.
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: And through our text line which is eight seven seven
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: valid Desk one eight seven seven valid Desk one, you
• 57:41
  Speaker 2: can leave a message. You can even call and talk
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: to me, so you can do that as well. But
• 57:45
  Speaker 2: they sent a text on this one, and I appreciate that.
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: Shout out to everybody listening in Canada. Shout out to
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: everybody across the country. I love and adore our listeners,
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: especially our new viewers and listeners.
• 57:55
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: You know, I've done radio over the years and I
• 57:59
  Speaker 2: adore radio. Right. Normally in radio, I've got my headphones
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: on and I don't even shave, and I'm just like
• 58:04
  Speaker 2: ah blah blah, blah blah blah, and I love it.
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: But in doing this format, it's a little different, Right.
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: You got to be, you know, kind of camera ready.
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: And I've done TV for years, but I never did
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: them at the same time. Right, So this is me
• 58:15
  Speaker 2: doing my radio show on camera, which is always odd
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: to me. Just a quick aside, why is it on?
• 58:22
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you why it's on because I love the
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: eater of the mind. I love the idea of being
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: able to do stuff that you can't see. And I've
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: talked about this in interviews I've done. But whether it's
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: the famous from l Rushbo, right, the fact that you
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: get that nice sound effect on your mic, or anything
• 58:39
  Speaker 2: else if you're telling a story, I've oftentimes cited one
• 58:42
  Speaker 2: of my early inspirations for radio host named Luis he
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: men Is. I would say an influence more than an inspiration.
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: I thought, man, what a good radio host he is.
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: The guy was fantastic and he still is. He's in
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: podcast land now and he's you know, had a tremendous career.
• 58:58
  Speaker 2: Something Louise he men has used to do all the time.
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: I forget the guy's name, but he had this character
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: that he played off mic, right, so he would tell
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: a story. He would start telling a story and say,
• 59:05
  Speaker 2: you know, blah blah blah. You know, walking down the street,
• 59:08
  Speaker 2: I bump into a guy and the guy tells me, hey, pal,
• 59:10
  Speaker 2: what are you doing over here? And then I go
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: back to the guy right, and he plays both parts
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: of the skit himself. One was off mic, and he
• 59:16
  Speaker 2: changed his voice up a little bit and he made
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: a little deeper you know, he would come back. It
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: was absolutely hysterical, true talent. That's what radio is all about. Right,
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: And he's thrown a couple of sound effects. Oh my god,
• 59:30
  Speaker 2: and now you've got the makings of fantastic radio. Which
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: seeing me do that on TV, it's kind of like,
• 59:35
  Speaker 2: what's he doing? He's freaking out? Why you're shaking your
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: chair and punching your hand. You lose a lot of euto, right,
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: But ultimately I was saying all of that to say,
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: I want to welcome all of the new people watching
• 59:45
  Speaker 2: us on Festiva TV on Roku. The Roku streaming television
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: platform reaches ninety million registered subscribers in North America and
• 59:57
  Speaker 2: each subscriber. The other day, I just had a plumber
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: in my house and shout out to Richie Flynn and
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: shout out to Kyle Demski, the plumber. They were doing
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: a great job on my boiler, and they asked a
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 2: house the show, and I said, oh, we've expanded to
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 2: doing roku and they were like, get out. He said, man,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: I got a rokup. I got one, My girlfriend has one.
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: I think her mom has one. He's like in my house,
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 2: we've probably got four or five. So that's one household
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: with five different users. If those are the kind of
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: if you got ninety million household and five years in
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: each one, Amen, Praise God, Hallelujah. This show is greatly expanded,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 2: and I'm super grateful for that. Of course, I miss
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 2: a lot of my radio familia, because you know, to
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: restaurant radio was a fantastic time the years I spent
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 2: on therestrial radio. But digital and streaming is a whole
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: new world, and I'm thrilled to be here. Now. I
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 2: want to continue my story because I got off track right.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: I was talking about this hockey story and the fight,
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: actually the fight before I get to the hockey. The fight.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: Now I want to say, which gears to this hockey thing,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: because I forgot the point I was making with the
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: radio statement. But one of our listeners sends me this
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: this video, and it's of a woman giving a RNT
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: on hockey. Now, some of you might think, well, Rich,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 2: isn't that you right now on your cell phone giving
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: a rent. No, I'm not on my cell phone number
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: one doing a show, but number two. I think it's
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: a very common thing for people to be upset. People,
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 2: i'm gonna say, on the left, to do these very
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 2: highly emotional rants right oftentimes in their car or their
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: living room, and they just go off and it's die
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: or it's.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 7: Like, don't you fing understand we're dying, You're gonna die.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 7: Trump is the devil, you know, something like that. Maga maggots, right,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 7: they freak out.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 2: And I find humor in that because I'm the maggot
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: they're talking about, right, They're talking about Trump and the maggots.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: I'm the maggot, one of many maggots. But it's fascinating
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 2: to watch because on the other side, when I see
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 2: somebody grab a camera, they're usually just criticizing those people.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 2: I've never really seen too many people say, hmm hmm,
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna make a video here and crash
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 2: out on camera. That's not a thing that you see
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: the people in the maga world do. I'm sure some
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: have done it, but it's not a typical thing anyway.
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 2: I say all that to say this hockey story. This
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: woman goes on this rant over the hockey stuff and
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: where she takes it fascinating. This is why I make
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: fun of them and I call them all out crazy
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 2: because you go from perhaps I don't like what you
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 2: believe in that, perhaps I don't believe what you believe politically,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: but to take it to this fundamental place, and many
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 2: of you might agree with this, I certainly don't, I
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 2: think is passenine. Watch this.
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 8: I do love that we all love heated rivelry. I
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 8: do think it did a little bit of damage because
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 8: I think that we all kind of like maybe collectively
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 8: forgot that like hockey is one of the most if
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 8: not the most conservative sports with the most conservative fan base.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 8: Like this isn't anything new. I would say it's comparable
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 8: to golf or lacrosse, but like, here's the thing, Okay, hockey.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 8: I don't know if you guys have seen like the
• 1:03:22

• 1:03:56
  Speaker 8: on the phone with Trump making fun of the women's team,
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 8: because that's what violent, rich white men do, Like that's
