WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.600 Tomorrow seems to be the big day for the vote 2 00:00:02.600 --> 00:00:05.719 in Congress on President Trump's legislative agenda. I've been talking 3 00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:07.799 to members all day and I've got a report on 4 00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:11.599 where negotiations are heading. Plus, South Africa's president visited the 5 00:00:11.599 --> 00:00:14.960 White House today. President Trump confronted him with footage that 6 00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:18.199 is quite familiar to our viewers. And Florida's Attorney general 7 00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:20.920 has responded to our report on ten million dollars that 8 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:24.199 was diverted away from the Florida Medicaid program to his 9 00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:27.719 political committee, and Marco Rubio laid out a beautiful defense 10 00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:29.399 of presidential power in the Senate. 11 00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:31.399 It's all next to the Mac Gates show. Let's do 12 00:00:31.480 --> 00:00:35.640 this shaking up Washington, d C. We're breaking the fever. 13 00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.200 Do you haven't watch this guy in television. 14 00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:42.759 It's like a machine. He's great, Matt Gates. 15 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:47.880 It's all supposed to happen tomorrow. 16 00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:49.759 The Big Beautiful Bill maybe up for a vote in 17 00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:52.159 the House of Representatives, and we are starting to see 18 00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.520 signs of a breakthrough that could deliver the requisite votes 19 00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:56.200 for passage. 20 00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.159 We're thrilled to predict that late tonight we will success 21 00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:05.640 vote one big beautiful reconciliation. This is a balancing act, 22 00:01:05.799 --> 00:01:10.959 one that the President personally engaged in, that balances reduction 23 00:01:11.239 --> 00:01:15.680 in taxes, reduction in spending, and avoids a government shut down, 24 00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.159 all in one package. I believe we're going to have 25 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:22.400 one hundred percent or nearly one hundred percent of all 26 00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:23.799 Republicans voting for it. 27 00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:27.200 That was San Diego Area Congressman darryl Isia. And of 28 00:01:27.239 --> 00:01:31.040 course President Trump has an electoral mandate. The way Congress 29 00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.599 has been in freeze frame all year, this is the 30 00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:36.760 last best hope for any legislative victories. And with control 31 00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:39.359 of the White House and both Houses of Congress, there 32 00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:42.680 are no excuses anymore. We can't blame the Democrats for 33 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:46.040 lighting Tesla dealerships on fire, getting arrested at ice detention centers, 34 00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:50.040 and crying alligator cheers for fire bureaucrats on this one. 35 00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.400 The Red team must come together on this program. We 36 00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.879 stand in solidarity with the fiscal hawks who are rightly, 37 00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:00.599 deeply concerned about heading to a fifty trillion dollar debt. 38 00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:04.680 Representative Keith self said it with a certainty, this. 39 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:09.039 Bill only slows down the growth of the debt. And 40 00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:11.039 even if we get this bill right, We're going to 41 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.680 go from thirty six trillion dollars in debt to fifty 42 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.560 trillion over the next few years. 43 00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:18.680 I've been talking to my former colleagues on Capitol Hill 44 00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:21.960 all day, and the big deal comes down to these issues. 45 00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:23.599 First, salt. 46 00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.719 This is the state and local deduction from federal income taxes. 47 00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:30.680 New York and California Republicans want this deduction. Trump eliminated 48 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:33.039 it during his first term. Leading the fight to re 49 00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:36.280 establish this tax welfare for people living in blue states 50 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:38.800 is New York Congressman Mike Lawler, And as you can. 51 00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:40.319 See here, he's a very serious person. 52 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:44.719 Slamiel Slamazzo has en temper incorporated. 53 00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.360 We're gonna make it. 54 00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:49.599 We are indeed being governed by the theater kids. 55 00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:52.800 End a, Mike, just end it. That's what Trump reportedly 56 00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:55.599 said to Lawler yesterday. We're hearing that this issue may 57 00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:57.960 be resolved by raising the salt cap to forty thousand 58 00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:00.000 for those making less than half a million bucks a year. 59 00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:03.240 All sides will probably grumble with this compromise, which may 60 00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:05.840 mean it's okay as a place to land. O An's 61 00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:08.560 John Haines pressed GP lawmakers on whether salt is still 62 00:03:08.560 --> 00:03:10.439 a sticking point for bill passage. 63 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:15.120 President's point yesterday in conference was look that the specific 64 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:19.199 details of assault deduction are not going to outweigh this 65 00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:21.919 broader picture of making sure that we've got common sense 66 00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:24.759 tax reform for the American people. 67 00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:29.080 I hope, you know, any kind of resolve on the 68 00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:32.240 salt issue is something that's going to be acceptable to 69 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:35.080 the New York members as well as I know there's 70 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:37.759 some members from California that we're watching it very closely. 71 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.000 I hope that it doesn't push anybody off the back 72 00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:43.599 of the wagon. 73 00:03:44.759 --> 00:03:48.280 The best way to pay lower taxes in New York 74 00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:52.879 and California is to cut taxes in New York and California, 75 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:54.759 not to have the people of Florida and Texas and 76 00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:58.520 Tennessee subsidize the high taxes in New York and California. 77 00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:01.879 The second issue is Medicaid. Time and again, you've heard 78 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:03.719 lawmakers talk about the need to make changes to the 79 00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.319 Medicaid program on our show. 80 00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:08.960 They pass all this vague laws like Obamacare. They create 81 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.800 a lot of loopholes, and they put stuff in mandatory spending, 82 00:04:11.840 --> 00:04:13.919 which is optometic spending, which is a no condress is 83 00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.199 never going to look and then on the issue rules. 84 00:04:16.240 --> 00:04:18.920 It cost US hundreds of billions of dollars to funnel 85 00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:21.279 money to the special interest group in New York to 86 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:24.480 a hospital cartel that they cut benefits for the most 87 00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:27.879 disadvantage people that Medicaid needed to be but then put 88 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.199 money on top and the pretty much is like unlimited 89 00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:35.199 credit line. They just money laundering the current benefits but 90 00:04:35.279 --> 00:04:36.839 billing at private insurance rate. 91 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:40.079 Because one hundred billions of dollars. 92 00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.639 We have a whole lot of able bodied a dolls 93 00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:46.680 that are not contributing to society, not contributing to the economy, 94 00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:48.519 and are collecting government checks. 95 00:04:48.519 --> 00:04:52.439 The people that truly need Medicaid were focused on making 96 00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:57.480 sure that that program, if anything, is you know, lifted 97 00:04:57.560 --> 00:05:00.160 up and made sound for the people that are the 98 00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.639 vulnerable population, the age, the blind, that disabled. To make 99 00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:06.199 sure that it's available for them, We've got to get 100 00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:08.279 you know. I frankly, I call them the dead beats, 101 00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.560 the people that are the young, able bodied, working age 102 00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:14.199 adults that should be out there working and contributing, but 103 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.720 for whatever reason or not going back to Clinton era 104 00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:19.800 work requirements, I think that we need to. I think 105 00:05:19.800 --> 00:05:22.319 it's common sense it's something that we need to return to. 106 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:25.920 Trump doesn't want to impact Medicaid benefits, but he has 107 00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:29.040 instructed Congress to focus on fraud, waste, and abuse, and 108 00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:31.959 there's a ton of it. There are also work requirements 109 00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:35.560 needed in Medicaid, but they don't start soon enough. In 110 00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:38.399 this bill, Republicans do a disservice to their voters by 111 00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:41.800 pushing major reforms beyond the Trump presidency. I believe that 112 00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:44.360 the best way to root out the fraud, waste, and 113 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.560 abuse in Medicaid is to send more of the programmatic 114 00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:51.920 features to the states and get DC's strings off the money. 115 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:55.160 Some states would fail, some would succeed, and best practices 116 00:05:55.199 --> 00:05:57.959 would be copied. There doesn't seem to be a fundamental 117 00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:00.959 change in benefits for Medicaid recipients under the current draft 118 00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:03.600 of the legislation. This could be tinkered with until the 119 00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.600 final vote, which could be expected late. 120 00:06:05.439 --> 00:06:06.439 To night or tomorrow. 121 00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:09.680 The third main issue is the Green New Deal tax 122 00:06:09.680 --> 00:06:12.879 credit system. Trump is correctly called this the Green New scam, 123 00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:17.360 and we see why. Biden's legislation disrupted energy markets, destroyed farmland, 124 00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.920 made fuel and heating unaffordable, and for what so billionaires 125 00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:23.079 in private jets could lecture you and your family about 126 00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:26.079 the campfire you have in your backyard. The current bill 127 00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:30.160 slashes about half of these absurd credits. Texas Congressman Ship 128 00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:32.240 Roy and others wanted to go farther, but back in 129 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.759 faceout challenges in the Senate where moderate Republicans are actually 130 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:38.759 supporting some of the Biden era policies. As Senator John 131 00:06:38.800 --> 00:06:40.800 Kurrs explained on CNN. 132 00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:43.160 There are some provisions in the IRA that I feel 133 00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:48.000 like are actually Republican priorities carbon, sequestration, nuclear, and so 134 00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:52.040 I've simply urged my fellow Republicans to be thoughtful and 135 00:06:52.120 --> 00:06:54.120 to not come in with a sledgehammer, but to come 136 00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:55.079 in with a scalpuler. 137 00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:59.360 Tragedy did strike the congressional family last night. Democrat Congressman 138 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.399 Jerry Connelly has died. This leaves his seat vacant and 139 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.000 alters the number of votes needed to pass President Trump's bill. 140 00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:09.240 Joining US now Executive director of Unleashed Prosperity Tim desher So, Tim, 141 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:12.879 we're getting word from Speaker Johnson that he's met with 142 00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:16.519 some of the remaining holdouts on this Republican legislation. It 143 00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:20.519 is where they have placed all their marbles. What issues 144 00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:22.759 are you watching to see worked through. 145 00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:26.639 I think the key word here is economic growth. I 146 00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.560 mean that is the one thing that President Trump campaigned 147 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:33.759 on time after time after time last year on the trail, 148 00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:36.879 and I think that the provisions in this bill are 149 00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:39.240 going to have to do that. And so what we're 150 00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:42.040 looking at right now is what are the drivers of 151 00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:44.839 the economic growth in this bill. We've got tax cuts, 152 00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:48.519 we've got expensing, we've got reduction in spending. A little 153 00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:50.199 bit of reduction spending, and I think that's kind of 154 00:07:50.199 --> 00:07:53.319 a hiccup that we're kind of focusing on right now. 155 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.439 But you take all that stuff. You take no tax 156 00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:58.720 on tips, you take no tax in social security. This 157 00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:02.519 is all money that leaves the government and goes back 158 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.279 to the people the way it should be, in our opinion, 159 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.040 driving growth, driving investment. 160 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:08.639 Oh. 161 00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:11.040 The other one I forgot about it the small business tax. 162 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:14.959 We're going to up that deduction that they take from 163 00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:17.959 twenty to twenty three percent. That's a big deal for 164 00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:20.560 small business growth. And we know that small businesses drive 165 00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.839 this economy. So when we're looking at the big thing, 166 00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:25.399 it's growth. And I think that it's coming together and 167 00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:26.720 I think that they're going to come up with a 168 00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:27.600 deal very soon. 169 00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:30.600 There's something so telling about the fact that the tax 170 00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.840 issue is emerging as really the hammer to get people 171 00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.679 to vote yes. I assumed at the beginning of this 172 00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:39.559 Congress that people would be really pushed to vote for 173 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:40.840 this bill based. 174 00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:43.240 On the border provisions. Right. The border was so central 175 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:44.039 to the campaign. 176 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.200 Securing the border unites the most conservative Republican and even 177 00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:51.240 some of the most liberal Republicans. But Trump fixed the 178 00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:56.240 border so quickly, turned the caravans around, established operational control, 179 00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:58.600 and I don't really hear that in a lot of 180 00:08:58.600 --> 00:08:59.360 the frontline messaging. 181 00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:00.720 It's exactly what you said. 182 00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:03.480 It's that people are being told, if you don't vote 183 00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:06.279 for this bill, it's going to result in a massive 184 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:08.720 tax increase because a lot of those Trump tax cuts 185 00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:12.159 that drove the economy are going to expire. So all 186 00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:15.840 the things you said seem to be achieving broad agreement, right, 187 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:19.960 the expensing, the rates, the ability to bring capital back here. 188 00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:23.559 What is the sticky wicket is the salt issue. This 189 00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:27.639 notion that in red states we ought to supplement the 190 00:09:27.679 --> 00:09:30.600 bad tax decisions in blue states, And what makes it 191 00:09:30.639 --> 00:09:33.840 politically challenging is that a lot of the majority makers 192 00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.799 are in New York, California, some Republicans scattered around Illinois. 193 00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:41.440 How are you thinking about the salt question and how 194 00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:44.200 it impacts that growth analysis you just walked us through. 195 00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:49.200 Why would red states subsidize bad policy in blue states? 196 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:52.080 And that's what SALT did. It's the most costly thing 197 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.159 in that bill at this point, other than again, I 198 00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:58.240 don't want to talk about how we're not taking on 199 00:09:58.279 --> 00:10:00.240 the massive spending. I agree with a lot of the 200 00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:02.840 folks on the right who are holding this up to 201 00:10:02.879 --> 00:10:04.919 say we need to focus on this. But when you're 202 00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:08.360 talking about quote unquote paying for this bill, that's the 203 00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:10.759 Salt thing has really the big thing in twenty seventeen. 204 00:10:10.799 --> 00:10:12.879 It saved us a trillion dollars. It was the thing 205 00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.960 that got us across the finish line to pass it 206 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:23.480 because we continued to subsidize these massively outrun, terribly performing 207 00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:26.559 states where people are moving out, they're losing their tax base, 208 00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.919 so all they have left to do is increase regulation 209 00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:33.519 and increase taxes, and so they desperately needed that deduction. 210 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:38.519 Now here's the problem. Now, because of the TCJA, not 211 00:10:38.600 --> 00:10:42.480 many people are doing itemized deductions anymore. You got ninety 212 00:10:42.519 --> 00:10:46.440 one percent of America who is now taking the standard deductions. 213 00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:48.559 That's me included. By the way, my wife and I included, 214 00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:50.600 we don't have to take care, We don't have to 215 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:53.720 look at our receipts and look at our deductions. All 216 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.679 we do is take the standard deduction. Because President Trump 217 00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:01.080 is flattening out that tax, that tax, that tax base. 218 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:03.399 We are on our way to a flat tax here, 219 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.440 and that's the fairness that we are contrasting. I think 220 00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:11.159 Americans get it. President Trump brought them into the tax 221 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:14.240 conversation by saying, you shouldn't have tax on your tips, 222 00:11:14.440 --> 00:11:17.159 you shouldn't have tax on your Social Security. So when 223 00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:19.720 you're talking about why is America talking about tax is 224 00:11:19.720 --> 00:11:22.840 because President Trump brought them to the table when nobody 225 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:25.240 else would. And I think that's a huge part of 226 00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:27.799 this bill, and we're seeing that. I think people do 227 00:11:27.879 --> 00:11:30.720 understand the salt deduction fight that's going on, and I 228 00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:32.919 think that they're in the corner of those who say 229 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.159 we gotta rain that in a lot. 230 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:38.639 Another big flash point is how to approach the Green 231 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:42.679 New Deal tax credits that are being massively deployed on 232 00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:46.440 Wall Street disrupting energy markets, I think, negatively impacting. 233 00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:47.080 Growth in a lot of ways. 234 00:11:47.120 --> 00:11:50.039 But you know, we've heard moderate to liberal senators like 235 00:11:50.120 --> 00:11:53.840 John Curtis in Utah saying, well, maybe we want to 236 00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:56.919 keep some of this carbon capture credits. And you've even 237 00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:00.360 got some of the Northeastern Republicans saying, well, maybe not 238 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:02.919 all these these Green New Deal tax credits need to 239 00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:07.120 be repealed. How does Unleashed Prosperity think about those, is 240 00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.080 it does it need to throw it all out or 241 00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.000 are some of those tax credits worthy of keeping in 242 00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:13.200 the Trump budget. 243 00:12:13.960 --> 00:12:16.080 Look, the bottom line is is that there is no 244 00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:19.080 Green Energy Deal unless there are subsidies. You know, as 245 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.120 Art Laugher famously said, you know you want less of 246 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:26.360 something subsidize it's that is what's happened here is we've 247 00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:29.879 completely taken any sort of green energy off of the 248 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:33.720 This could be profitable, this could be something that works, 249 00:12:34.080 --> 00:12:37.200 because now everybody's just relying on subsidies and they're upping 250 00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:40.039 the price, making it way more expensive and way more 251 00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:42.720 and by the way, the technology isn't even there yet. 252 00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:45.000 So if you're asking me if we supported the Green 253 00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.120 New Deal or anything in it, the answer is an 254 00:12:47.200 --> 00:12:50.240 unequivocal cell. No, we want that thing. 255 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:52.759 You sound like all the Republicans when they campaign, But 256 00:12:52.799 --> 00:12:55.240 then they get elected and some lobbyists comes and talks 257 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:57.519 about all this is really valuable, and then they latch 258 00:12:57.559 --> 00:12:59.559 onto it and makes it more challenging for people. And 259 00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:03.200 so you laid out the jatrone correctly. There's another area 260 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.080 where that exact same pattern is playing out, and it's 261 00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:10.559 on Medicaid work requirements. I've seen so many Republicans run 262 00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:14.000 on work requirements as part of their messaging, and now 263 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:15.840 they want to they want to say that they pass 264 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.000 work requirements, but start the work requirements after Donald Trump 265 00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:22.919 leaves office. Does that seem sincere to you? 266 00:13:23.799 --> 00:13:26.240 Yeah, but no it doesn't. And and the thing is 267 00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:28.399 is they have all the cover in the world. President 268 00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:31.799 Trump went on the hill yesterday and said, waste, fraud 269 00:13:31.960 --> 00:13:35.879 and abuse. We're not touching anything else. Waste, fraud and abuse. 270 00:13:35.919 --> 00:13:38.720 And guess what, there are millions of people that are 271 00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:42.559 getting medicaid that should not be getting medicaid. And let 272 00:13:42.600 --> 00:13:45.440 me tell you something, Matt, that right, there is something 273 00:13:45.480 --> 00:13:47.759 that America is woke to. At this point. We have 274 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:51.720 we have come to life on this issue. We understand that, 275 00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:54.519 and it doesn't make sense because what we say is 276 00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:57.759 is that if you want better healthcare, better Medicaid, then 277 00:13:57.799 --> 00:14:00.519 you got to get the people who are not supposed 278 00:14:00.519 --> 00:14:02.480 to be on there off of it. There's only so 279 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:06.279 much money that can cover that. And so what anybody 280 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:09.120 that's trying to say, oh, we don't want to touch Medicaid, 281 00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:12.559 they're being scared. And I'm telling you something. President Trump 282 00:14:12.600 --> 00:14:15.399 went to the Hill yesterday and showed them you don't 283 00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:17.799 have to be scared, because look, I'm taking it for 284 00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.360 I'm giving you the messaging right now. Waste fraud and abuse. 285 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:25.519 It's something everybody gets. 286 00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:29.879 If all you targeted was the waste, fraud and abuse 287 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:33.480 in the medicaid program, it would be a target rich environment, 288 00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:36.840 like you were a mosquito at a nudist colony. And yeah, 289 00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:38.759 I think they could do a lot more than they've 290 00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:41.320 done so far on some of that.
