1 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,839 Speaker 1: Hello and welcome. How are you welcome to the Big Radio, 2 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,800 the Big Podcast. I should say, yeah, it's Tuesday. Today 3 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,480 is the tenth day of June, year of Our Lord, 4 00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:30,640 twenty twenty five. My name is Tom Sullivan. We have 5 00:00:31,239 --> 00:00:33,600 a lot to go over today. We've got the fifth 6 00:00:33,679 --> 00:00:38,719 day of Los Angeles being a city under riots and 7 00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:43,920 school shooting in Austria, so it doesn't always happen here. 8 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,399 Like the media likes to report vaccines, I've got to 9 00:00:49,399 --> 00:00:52,359 ask you about vaccines. We'll get into that. Because of 10 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:58,039 RFK Junior let all seventeen members of his vaccine panel, 11 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,000 the ones who approved vaccines or suggest approvals, fired all 12 00:01:03,119 --> 00:01:07,000 seventeen of them. I'll ask you where you sit on that. 13 00:01:07,799 --> 00:01:13,040 And Harry Entton, the statistician from CNN back again with 14 00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:20,200 some surprisingly positive polling on Donald Trump's moves with immigration 15 00:01:21,359 --> 00:01:25,560 before we get started today. If you're listening to this, 16 00:01:25,599 --> 00:01:27,879 that means you found the podcast. But there's a number 17 00:01:27,879 --> 00:01:31,640 of people that are still trying to figure out how 18 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,000 do you get the podcast? Well, it's there on It 19 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,760 took a while for a lot of the places that 20 00:01:38,879 --> 00:01:43,719 carry podcast to shall we say, upload the podcast, but 21 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,680 it's on most of your major podcast locations. Hopefully you 22 00:01:47,799 --> 00:01:53,920 found it by now, and I'm also looking for your participation. 23 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,840 You pick the topic, but I mean, if you hear 24 00:01:57,959 --> 00:02:00,239 one of the topics on this podcast or something else 25 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,640 you're seeing on the news today, you're more than welcome 26 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,799 to call. The old radio show phone line is still working. 27 00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:12,080 It goes directly to voicemail, and so leave your messages 28 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,960 and we will play some of them. And the numbers 29 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:20,199 eight five five two nine five sixty six hundred eight 30 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:26,800 nine five two nine five sixty six hundred. Leave your messages. 31 00:02:26,879 --> 00:02:30,960 I would love to have your comments be part of 32 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,599 the program today. So let's start with Harry Entton. He 33 00:02:36,759 --> 00:02:39,159 has been surprising a lot of people. Again he does 34 00:02:39,199 --> 00:02:44,039 his work on CNN, but uh, he's pointing out the facts, 35 00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:48,080 and the facts are somewhat surprising, I think for the 36 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:52,479 CNN audience, maybe not for you. But here's Harry Nton 37 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:53,520 from earlier today. 38 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,599 Speaker 2: Interestingly enough, how immigrant voters feel about immigration and the 39 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,400 immigration crackdown. Where do you want to start? 40 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's let's just sort of start off on the 41 00:03:01,759 --> 00:03:05,560 fact that immigrant citizens, immigrant voters, foreign born voters have 42 00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:09,080 gone tremendously to the right on this issue in twenty 43 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,120 twenty four and twenty twenty five versus where they were 44 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,479 in twenty twenty. Closest to or trust more in immigration, 45 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,960 You go back to twenty twenty, Democrats, get this, held 46 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,240 a thirty two point lead on this issue. Immigrant voters 47 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,960 were in the Democratic camp. Jump forward to twenty twenty 48 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,039 four to twenty twenty five. Look at that shift, a 49 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:29,759 forty point shift to the right among immigrant voters. Republicans 50 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,360 now lead on this issue by eight points over Democrats, 51 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,479 more so than any other group that I could find. 52 00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:39,560 The group of voters who became more hawkish on immigration 53 00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:43,240 were in fact immigrants themselves, immigrants who are registered to 54 00:03:43,319 --> 00:03:45,159 vote in this country. 55 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: So that's on that issue. How about how they feel 56 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,840 about kind of traditionally historically about Donald Trump. 57 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know, you see this shift, and you go, 58 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,280 what is going on underneath the hood? Well take a 59 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,680 look donald Trump. You remember when he first ran back 60 00:03:57,719 --> 00:04:00,319 in twenty sixteen, immigrant voters are one of his weakest box. 61 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,560 But look at this. Trump's vote share in presidential election 62 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,319 among again immigrant citizens, those who registered vote. Look at 63 00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:07,439 this twenty sixteen, you got thirty six percent of the vote. 64 00:04:07,479 --> 00:04:09,759 You go to twenty twenty, thirty nine percent of the vote. 65 00:04:09,919 --> 00:04:12,120 Look at this in twenty twenty four, all the way 66 00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:15,240 up to forty seven percent of the vote. Some polls 67 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,439 I looked at had him barely losing that vote. Some 68 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,000 polls I looked at had him barely winning that vote. Again, 69 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,199 there is no block of voters that shifted more to 70 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,920 the right from twenty twenty to twenty twenty four than 71 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,959 immigrant voters, and Donald Trump, at least in some surveys, 72 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,639 actually won that vote. On average, it's about equal. So 73 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,639 there may be all this stuff right about undocumented immigrants 74 00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,600 and Trump being harsh on them, but immigrant voters themselves 75 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,600 have increasingly liked Donald Trump and have increasingly moved to 76 00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:45,680 the right on immigration into the Republican camp. 77 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: Well, then on that what you're getting at, how how 78 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:54,120 immigrant citizens voters feel about people in the country illegally. 79 00:04:54,399 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is where it all kind of comes together, 80 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,879 Cape Paul. When look at this the net favorable rating 81 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,879 immigrants who are here illegal among immigrants citizens again, those 82 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,439 registered to vote in twenty twenty look at this plus 83 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,160 twenty three points on the net favorable rating. But look 84 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,519 at where we were in twenty twenty four minus six 85 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:14,439 points underwater. So immigrant citizens have become increasingly unfavorable in 86 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,879 their views of those immigrants who are here illegally. 87 00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:18,759 Speaker 4: So I think it's so. 88 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,199 Speaker 3: Important when we're talking about this debate from a political 89 00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:24,800 angle to separate those out who are undocumented immigrants versus 90 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,879 those who are here legally and those who are citizens 91 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,720 and those who are voters, because that group of voters 92 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,639 has felt increasingly distant from those immigrants who are here legally. 93 00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:36,560 And so again, when we're talking about this, at least 94 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,000 from a political angle, this is why Donald Trump feels 95 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,240 so comfortable because in fact, amongst the group that you 96 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,800 would think that would be most opposed to this, in fact, 97 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,040 they become increasingly favorable, not just towards Donald Trump, but 98 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,720 towards a Republican point of view on immigration and becoming 99 00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:52,199 distant from those immigrants who are here illegally. 100 00:05:52,399 --> 00:05:54,639 Speaker 1: And so that is not a surprise to me, not 101 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,959 at all. There is not a shred of surprise, because 102 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,800 I've done this show for all a long long time, 103 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,600 and what I have found is that people will call 104 00:06:03,639 --> 00:06:06,560 the program and they will say I immigrated to the 105 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:13,759 United States from and they will fill you know, whatever country, Peru, Hungary, Japan, 106 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,759 it doesn't matter, from all over the world, and they 107 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,879 all are very upset, more upset than I think the 108 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,319 average citizen about the people that are coming into our 109 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,519 country illegally. And every one of these people that are 110 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,680 here legally, they got in line, they waited, they went 111 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,439 through the process, they took the citizenship test, they paid 112 00:06:35,439 --> 00:06:39,000 their fees, and you see these other people. Nobody likes 113 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,279 somebody that cuts in front of you in the line. 114 00:06:41,959 --> 00:06:46,680 So the fact that Harry Enton said that the immigrants 115 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:51,279 that are here legally are very much in favor of 116 00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:55,800 what Donald Trump has been doing, so no surprise to me. 117 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,160 But I'm glad that this is Harry Nton and he's 118 00:07:00,199 --> 00:07:03,560 talking to the CNN audience. They've they've got to be 119 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,639 sitting and go, oh oh. 120 00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 5: How about that. 121 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:12,079 Speaker 1: So, speaking of the illegals and all of that, let's 122 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:17,279 talk about Los Angeles for just a moment, because the 123 00:07:17,279 --> 00:07:21,759 governor and the mayor are the governor of California, mayor 124 00:07:21,759 --> 00:07:25,439 of Los Angeles are talking about that, and a lot 125 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,519 of the politicians, the Democrat politicians that are being interviewed, 126 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,199 they all go, I'll tell you what this all started 127 00:07:32,199 --> 00:07:35,519 with Donald Trump. Everything was fine until Donald Trump came 128 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,439 along and started putting troops in here. Donald Trump did 129 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,720 not put troops in there on Friday, and that's when 130 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,600 people attacked the ice officers who were arresting a number 131 00:07:48,839 --> 00:07:54,319 of illegals that are now in their custody. So other 132 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,759 observation that I know people don't pay that much attention, 133 00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:03,720 but I do. If you look, there are no federal 134 00:08:03,759 --> 00:08:07,560 troops that are There's the National Guard that has been 135 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,800 federalized by the president. They are not out on the street. 136 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:16,480 They are surrounding the federal building in downtown Los Angeles. 137 00:08:16,879 --> 00:08:21,560 They are protecting the building. They're protecting the detainees that 138 00:08:21,639 --> 00:08:24,720 they have in the jails in those buildings in that building. 139 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,800 They're not out, they're not moving out to the barely 140 00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:33,639 the sidewalk. The people that you see fighting law enforcement, 141 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,879 those are the Los Angeles Police Department, and they are overwhelmed, 142 00:08:38,879 --> 00:08:46,440 literally overwhelmed. They have somewhere around eight thousand police officers 143 00:08:46,519 --> 00:08:53,720 in Los Angeles. That's it. New York, which is slightly 144 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,799 bigger than Los Angeles, has thirty eight thousand. They are 145 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,519 way understand the reason they are understaffed in Los Angeles 146 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,919 is because the City of Los Angeles, and I think 147 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:09,440 this goes back before the Karen Bass was mayor, when 148 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,720 the defund the police movement was working through city budgets. 149 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,279 LA cut the budget they were defunding, not completely, but 150 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:22,240 they defunded the police. They are way below what they 151 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,080 are supposed to what they used to have, so they 152 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,320 are overwhelmed. They do need help. They're now calling in 153 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:32,720 for help the Los Angeles County Sheriff, who has a 154 00:09:32,799 --> 00:09:36,600 large department as well that doesn't usually work in the city, 155 00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:38,960 but they're going to come in and help. The California 156 00:09:39,039 --> 00:09:42,240 Highway Patrol has been there, but they're not a huge agency. 157 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:48,080 So they do need help. And we'll see what happens 158 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:52,559 with the federal troops and the Marines and everything else 159 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,759 that's in the news. But I got the sneak and 160 00:09:55,799 --> 00:09:58,759 feeling that you're not going to see anything other than 161 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,879 local police that are out there fighting off these people. Now, 162 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,720 who are these people? That's the other question. These people 163 00:10:06,759 --> 00:10:13,679 are obviously anarchists and antagonists. It's red meat for them. 164 00:10:13,759 --> 00:10:17,080 They are ready to go. You just find yourself a 165 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:22,320 protest somewhere. And these people they communicate online and they 166 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,320 can be there in twenty four hours. And that's what 167 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:30,919 they're doing. They're professional agitators that are now not only 168 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,639 fighting the police, but they're also doing a lot of 169 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,399 looting in downtown Los Angeles. They're going in the building. 170 00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:45,399 So the troops have not been involved with the crowds, 171 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,840 only the LAPD and the LA Sheriff's Office and the 172 00:10:48,879 --> 00:10:54,320 California Highway Patrol Bresident. Trump said LA would be burning 173 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,480 if he did not mobilize troops. I'm not sure that's true. 174 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,240 I think the LAPD has done a tremendously good job. 175 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,399 I don't think the troops or no troops makes any 176 00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:12,360 difference to the professional agitators. I think they show up regardless. 177 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,559 Like I said, it's red meat for those people. So 178 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:24,080 what do you make of the response? Donald Trump is 179 00:11:24,159 --> 00:11:28,000 basically a law and order president. That's what he ran on. 180 00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:31,360 He's the first president to run on law and order 181 00:11:32,279 --> 00:11:36,600 as one of his main topics since Richard Nixon. Nixon 182 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,840 did the same thing, and that he was going after 183 00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:43,000 the riots that were going on regarding the Vietnam War 184 00:11:43,039 --> 00:11:47,200 back in the seventies, late sixties, early seventies. So law 185 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,559 and order, But how much law and order is Donald 186 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:55,360 Trump being too aggressive or not aggressive enough, or just 187 00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:02,200 about doing what's right? But the Democrat are I guess 188 00:12:02,279 --> 00:12:04,960 you could say that they must be. If they're not 189 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,320 with law and order, they must be siding with the 190 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,039 people that are doing the demonstrating. And I don't care 191 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,399 if you're a Democrat, pink o, I don't care what 192 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:19,480 you are. Nobody is in favor of siding with rioters now, 193 00:12:19,799 --> 00:12:24,000 not ever, never has been, And they have got themselves 194 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,679 into a situation where they are basically they keep saying, oh, 195 00:12:27,799 --> 00:12:31,399 we want a peaceful, peaceful, peaceful, but will they actually 196 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:35,279 bring to the table how to shut these people down 197 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,960 so that LA doesn't burn. By the way, the other day, 198 00:12:40,159 --> 00:12:44,279 was watching some live coverage of it, and somebody had 199 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,240 like a burn barrel fifty gallon drum or something like, 200 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,039 out on the street. It was out on the street 201 00:12:50,039 --> 00:12:52,960 all by itself. Somebody poured some fuel in they're gasoline 202 00:12:53,039 --> 00:12:55,279 or whatever, lit it on fire, and a whole bunch 203 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,919 of photographers ran over to the burn barrel and started 204 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,960 taking a funs And what are they taking a photo 205 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,240 of a burn barrel for? Because there were flames coming 206 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,639 out of it. So if you frame the photo on 207 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,840 the flames and you see the buildings in the background. 208 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:17,720 It looks like La is burning, but it's not. Have 209 00:13:17,799 --> 00:13:20,360 they been, Yes, they've been doing looting. The other thing 210 00:13:20,399 --> 00:13:23,679 that's in the crowd, which is also a bad sign, 211 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:30,240 is I told you this yesterday, what's with the Mexican flags? Seriously, 212 00:13:30,399 --> 00:13:34,120 what is with the Mexican flags? I don't get it. 213 00:13:35,639 --> 00:13:39,799 Maybe you do. It just seems like if you are 214 00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:48,080 in a country that you're trying to I don't know this. 215 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,559 Great Gutfeld put a post yesterday on x He said, 216 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,399 trying to find a country to establish a sanctuary city 217 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,159 where I can burn stuff while waving my native country's 218 00:13:59,159 --> 00:14:02,600 flag while violently demanding that they don't send me back 219 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,279 to the native country of the flag that I am waving. 220 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,399 Is there a country I can terrorize then demand sympathy 221 00:14:10,399 --> 00:14:14,600 when they want me to leave. That's what's going on, 222 00:14:14,919 --> 00:14:19,200 and it's not making a lot of sense. So that's 223 00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:27,799 by the way they're talking about. There's probably six thousand demonstrators, rioters, 224 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:34,480 whatever you want to call them, agitators, six thousand of them. 225 00:14:35,759 --> 00:14:39,960 I say again, LAPD one hundred. If everybody showed up 226 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,480 from the LPD, there'd be eight thousand lapds. So they 227 00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:47,360 do need help, there's no question about it. And by 228 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,000 the way, since they threw Gascone out as their DA 229 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:55,480 in Los Angeles, they have a DA that's a real DA. 230 00:14:55,519 --> 00:14:59,600 And he says that he is going to prosecute the 231 00:14:59,639 --> 00:15:03,519 people that are arrested to the fullest extent of the law. 232 00:15:04,159 --> 00:15:09,240 Won't that be interesting to see what they do? I 233 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,639 trust him. I'd be interesting to see what the if 234 00:15:11,639 --> 00:15:14,240 that makes any difference to the people that because when 235 00:15:14,279 --> 00:15:19,240 they're in New York and they're riding at Columbia University, 236 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,720 they go in the front door and go right out 237 00:15:21,759 --> 00:15:23,720 the back door and go back to Columbia and start 238 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:29,799 protesting again. But LA maybe cracking the whip. The president 239 00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:33,240 is cracking the whip. Is that too much for you 240 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:34,840 or is it just right? 241 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 6: Again? 242 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:41,039 Speaker 1: Your comments are welcome. The phone numbers eight five, five, two, nine, five, 243 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,639 sixty six hundred. So the fight between the California governor 244 00:15:45,679 --> 00:15:52,000 and the president continues. Gavin Newsom is saying, come and 245 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,879 get me if you want, mister, mister tough, or something 246 00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:58,519 along those lines paraphrasing. But he also has filed a 247 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:02,159 lawsuit and the Attorney general in the state of California 248 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,559 has filed the lawsuit for California to say that the 249 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,200 president it's illegal for him to send the troops. Andy McCarthy, 250 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:16,600 former Southern District of New York prosecutor, and this response. 251 00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 7: He absolutely, the president absolutely has the law on his side. 252 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:24,919 Since the Civil War, the courts have recognized that the 253 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,399 president not only has the authority but the duty to 254 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,080 protect the United States when there are conditions that could 255 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:37,039 lead to violent rebellion. Enforcement of the immigration laws is 256 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,759 a plenary federal responsibility. 257 00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 5: The Supreme Court has held that. 258 00:16:41,159 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 7: For years now, and the President has unquestioned authority to 259 00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:52,399 protect federal personnel, federal resources, federal facilities, including the buildings 260 00:16:52,399 --> 00:16:55,960 that have been attacked, and obviously to protect the execution 261 00:16:56,039 --> 00:16:58,320 of federal law. So I really don't think Newsom has 262 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,240 a light to stand on here, all. 263 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 6: Right, So let me ask you this question. 264 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,399 Speaker 8: Newsom obviously is going to try to go to some 265 00:17:03,519 --> 00:17:06,359 friendly district court in California. How quickly do you think 266 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,160 could this get to the Supreme Court on an emergency 267 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,240 petition from the White House? 268 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 6: Very quickly? 269 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 4: Yeah? 270 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 7: I think Chief Justice Roberts has been pretty emphatic John 271 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,039 that the court can act quickly when there's an emergent situation. 272 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,279 I don't expect that Newsom is going to find the 273 00:17:24,319 --> 00:17:26,640 courts to be as friendly as perhaps he expects. 274 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,759 Speaker 1: This is the viewpoint of the mayor of Los Angeles, 275 00:17:32,079 --> 00:17:34,880 Karen Bass. This is what she had to say, Democrats out. 276 00:17:34,799 --> 00:17:35,799 Speaker 6: Of touch on this issue. 277 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 9: Well, I think if you did the polling in Los Angeles, 278 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,759 I'm not sure it would be that way. Considering we 279 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:42,680 are a city of immigrants. 280 00:17:42,759 --> 00:17:44,039 Speaker 4: Do people really. 281 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 9: Approve the federal government coming in and seizing power from 282 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,680 a state and from a city. So I drilled down 283 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,079 a little further on that poll because I do not 284 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:58,039 believe that Americans support the federal intervention in a city 285 00:17:58,079 --> 00:17:59,599 takeover or a state takeover. 286 00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: What she's referring to CNN had put up on their 287 00:18:02,759 --> 00:18:07,119 screen before they before she talked the fact that a 288 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,880 CNN poll showed that fifty four percent. Yeah, it's split, 289 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,920 but it's decently in the majority of people in this 290 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:21,559 country are supportive of Donald Trump's efforts on stopping the 291 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,119 illegals in this country and stopping the la riots. But 292 00:18:26,279 --> 00:18:30,319 she does not believe it. She lives in her own bubble, 293 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,839 and I truly believe that she doesn't think that that's possible. 294 00:18:35,759 --> 00:18:38,000 And she also points out again the fact that she 295 00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,240 says fifty two percent of the citizens of Los Angeles 296 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:48,119 are Hispanic, Okay, but ten percent of them are illegally 297 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:52,200 in this country. So most of the citizens of Los 298 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,599 Angeles are legal. We pointed out just a minute ago 299 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,119 about the fact that the people that are in this 300 00:18:58,279 --> 00:19:02,599 country legally, they came here from another country. Don't like 301 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,920 this business of these illegals coming in because they paid, 302 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,920 they jumped the line. Then the people that are here 303 00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,000 legally went through the whole rigmarole to come to become 304 00:19:15,039 --> 00:19:22,200 a citizen. Here's Byron Yorke responding to Karen Bass's disbelief 305 00:19:22,319 --> 00:19:27,359 about the fact that anybody is in favor of Donald Trump. 306 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,559 Speaker 4: Here's Byron York where she has. 307 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:33,599 Speaker 10: It completely wrong. Because the federal government has the sole 308 00:19:33,799 --> 00:19:37,799 authority to enforce immigration law. I'll bring back in the 309 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,039 Barack Obama years, you may remember the state of Arizona 310 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:44,440 said to Obama, you're not enforcing immigration laws, so we're 311 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,759 going to do it. And Obama said, no, you're not. 312 00:19:47,279 --> 00:19:50,440 And it went to court and Obama won it went 313 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,640 to the Supreme Court and Obama won, and the ruling 314 00:19:53,759 --> 00:19:57,119 is the federal government has the sole authority to do this. 315 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,000 So when Karen Bass says, it's like the federal government 316 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,680 is coming in and taking our state and local authority, No, 317 00:20:02,759 --> 00:20:05,799 they don't have any state and local authority. 318 00:20:06,079 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: But Bim in York isn't sure that troops are needed, 319 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,440 and he doesn't think the President has made the case 320 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:11,799 for it. 321 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 11: I think the polls would suggest that they want communities 322 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,200 that are safe, they don't want people rioting. 323 00:20:16,519 --> 00:20:18,279 Speaker 10: I don't know if the President has fully made the 324 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,759 case for that. It doesn't seem on the surface all 325 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:26,200 that needed because you do have the National Guard. It 326 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,000 appears we were reporting this morning that it's quieter at 327 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,079 the moment, but it could get bad again tonight. But 328 00:20:32,279 --> 00:20:35,160 not sure that active duty troops are actually needed in 329 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,000 this situation. But national Guard, which hadn't been done since 330 00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:41,720 nineteen sixty five, in these circumstances was definitely needed. 331 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:46,759 Speaker 1: And then Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana always has an 332 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,039 interesting observation on all of this. 333 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 12: Here's the Senator, Well, number one, I think all those 334 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:57,640 those people need to popo Zoe. 335 00:20:57,559 --> 00:21:01,559 Speaker 6: Loft and relax. Little bit number two. 336 00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 12: I don't think this situation is especially complicated. You don't 337 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,559 need to be an astrophysicist to figure it out. We've 338 00:21:09,559 --> 00:21:13,880 got a wolf problem in Los Angeles. They're not peaceful protesters, 339 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:18,680 they're wolves. They're hurting people, they're destroying property. So you say, well, 340 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,200 where's the governor. Well, the governor is a sheep. He'll 341 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,839 tell you I'm a sheep. He's a sheep in sheep's clothing. 342 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,400 He thinks cops are a bigger problem than criminals. So 343 00:21:30,519 --> 00:21:33,160 then you say, well, where's the mayor of Los Angeles, 344 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,920 maybe she can stop it. Well, she's a sheep too. 345 00:21:37,599 --> 00:21:40,079 More sheep is not going to stop the wolf problem. 346 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:45,359 So the federal government sent in troops and we're stopping 347 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,240 the wolf problem. Last night was a better night, and 348 00:21:48,319 --> 00:21:49,359 tonight it'll be better. 349 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 4: Still. 350 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 6: It's not hard to figure out. 351 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 12: To me, And I think this is what I think 352 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,200 most Americans are looking at this and going stop the wolves, 353 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,480 and a lot of them are thinking, you know, nobody's 354 00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:02,519 talking about it, but who's going to pay for all this? 355 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,000 You know, who's going to pay for all this destruction? 356 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,359 Are we going to get the bill. That's the way 357 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:08,759 I said. 358 00:22:09,319 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 8: You know, Senator would see that not all Democrats are 359 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,759 in the same boat the d MS outrage. Listen to 360 00:22:14,799 --> 00:22:18,400 what Senator John Fetter Pennsylvania said about this. He said, quote, 361 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:23,319 I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration. 362 00:22:23,799 --> 00:22:27,880 But this is not that. This is anarchy and true chaos. 363 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,440 My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse 364 00:22:31,519 --> 00:22:35,720 to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting 365 00:22:35,799 --> 00:22:40,000 law enforcement. Now Democrats are calling for demonstrations across the country. 366 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,400 It almost looks like they're looking for a repeat of 367 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,559 the Summer of Love from twenty twenty. 368 00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 12: Well, I think I think Senator fetterman has given us 369 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:52,359 some wise advice. 370 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,279 Speaker 6: We ought to take it. 371 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,559 Speaker 12: Number two, My Democratic colleagues have a game plan. I 372 00:22:57,599 --> 00:23:00,160 don't think it's a very good one, but it it's 373 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,359 the same game plan we've seen forever. President Trump is 374 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,119 a dictator. He's trying to destroy democracy. Now he's trying 375 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,160 to take over our cities, and they're trying. 376 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 6: To convince the American people if that's true. 377 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 12: This is one problem. The American people can see what's 378 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,559 going on. It's just like they could see that President 379 00:23:20,599 --> 00:23:25,759 Biden had neuro degender to disease. They can see the 380 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:32,079 riots in Los Angeles. So when the Democrats try to 381 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:36,400 tell them not to believe, they're lying eyes and nobody 382 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,279 believes them. I mean, I think they ought to get 383 00:23:38,279 --> 00:23:42,880 a new strategy here. But aside from the politics, Los 384 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,000 Angeles is one of. 385 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,279 Speaker 6: The greatest cities in the world. 386 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 12: We shouldn't stand by and let the wolves destroy it 387 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,480 air devoured. Well, they're not peacefully. I mean, you can 388 00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:56,279 see it. I see what you see. 389 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 6: The American people see what we both see. 390 00:23:59,839 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 12: They see wolves acting like wolves, and they see they 391 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:09,480 see sheep. My Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass telling the 392 00:24:09,519 --> 00:24:14,559 wolves please stop it, you know, please stop it. Well, 393 00:24:14,599 --> 00:24:17,599 the wolves aren't going to stop. And you see the 394 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,519 American taxpayer and the good people of California and they're 395 00:24:20,519 --> 00:24:23,640 going on the wolves are taken over. Now, who am 396 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,759 I going to call Gavin Newsom, Karen Bass or a 397 00:24:27,839 --> 00:24:33,119 marine the good people of Los Angeles saying I think 398 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,440 I'll take door number three. 399 00:24:35,039 --> 00:24:39,880 Speaker 1: So let's move on. We've got the story that's been brewing, 400 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:47,680 and it is very controversial. There are people that are Republicans, Democrats, 401 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:52,079 doesn't matter. There are very much on one side or 402 00:24:52,079 --> 00:24:56,759 the other regarding vaccines. And if you haven't heard the news, 403 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:04,400 RFK JR has ousta the entire vaccine panel. The story 404 00:25:04,559 --> 00:25:10,880 is is that the Health Secretary he has chosen to 405 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:15,240 retire members of the committee that make the decisions about 406 00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:20,880 who receives immunizations and who doesn't. So he has decided 407 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:25,240 to retire this committee. They all seventeen members of the 408 00:25:25,279 --> 00:25:29,359 Advisory Committee. Every one of them was let go. Two 409 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,839 thirds of the panel had been appointed in the last 410 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:37,960 year by the Biden administration. They're very influential. They wield 411 00:25:38,279 --> 00:25:41,880 enormous power, but they are the ones that review the 412 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,559 data on vaccines, debate the evidence, vote on who should 413 00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:50,160 get the shots, and win. Doctor Vin Gupta from the 414 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:56,119 University of Washington is this is his view on what's 415 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:56,480 going on. 416 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,039 Speaker 4: There's Mika. You know if it's still up, and it 417 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,559 was up a two minutes ago. I encouraged all your 418 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,519 viewers to google. 419 00:26:04,279 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 11: Asip, ACIP and the CDC and you'll go to the 420 00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:11,640 roster that's still live on Surprises Live probably for the 421 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,599 next few hours, and you can read the bios of 422 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,480 the individuals currently on a SIP through June. 423 00:26:16,839 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 4: End of June. 424 00:26:17,839 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 11: These are professors of infectious diseases like doctor Helen Chu 425 00:26:21,759 --> 00:26:23,079 at the University of Washington. 426 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:24,799 Speaker 4: They're professors of. 427 00:26:24,799 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 11: Epidemiology doctor Jane Zucker at Sunny Downstate, not far from you, 428 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,799 and in no way their conflicts. 429 00:26:33,039 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 4: Kennedy and his. 430 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,279 Speaker 11: Piece at the Wall Street Journal said that there was 431 00:26:36,319 --> 00:26:39,440 conflicts of interests, that somehow these individuals are in. 432 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,599 Speaker 4: The pocket of pharma. That's not true. 433 00:26:41,799 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 11: That they have to submit very rigorous conflicts of interests 434 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,400 forms that are scrutinized. They cannot hold stock and the 435 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,599 advisory committees anything to do with vaccine manufacturers. 436 00:26:53,039 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 4: So there is no relationship between. 437 00:26:55,039 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 11: Any of these individuals and their credentials and a conflict 438 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,839 of interests Number one, your point, you know, what is 439 00:27:01,839 --> 00:27:05,119 this going to mean. I'm very close to the American 440 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,559 Academy of Pediatrics and we just had a town hall 441 00:27:08,599 --> 00:27:11,119 in this conversation in the wake of his announcements over 442 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,680 the last few weeks. What does this rolling thunder set 443 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,319 of announcements can mean for public health? And it's pretty 444 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:22,400 darn clear. No clinician likes the fact that he's doing 445 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,400 what he's doing. He's doing exactly what he said he's 446 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,880 been doing. Well, he's doing exactly what he's the last 447 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,200 twenty years, which is reducing confidence in vaccines. But no 448 00:27:30,559 --> 00:27:34,440 clinician wants a lack of transparency and a lack of 449 00:27:34,599 --> 00:27:38,759 here guidelines that's not expert driven, and that's exactly what 450 00:27:38,799 --> 00:27:41,519 he's doing number one. Number two, he also knows that 451 00:27:41,559 --> 00:27:47,119 insurance companies rely heavily. Medicaid relies heavily on what ACIP recommends. 452 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,559 If ACIP says we need to get a flue booster 453 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,440 or MMR every few years, they're going to have to 454 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:54,839 cover it. 455 00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 4: It's actually statutory by law. So he knows what he's doing. 456 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 11: He's actually undermining the very framework of how we get 457 00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:04,200 vaccines covered for the American people, including kids, and he's going. 458 00:28:04,079 --> 00:28:04,759 Speaker 4: Right at the heart of that. 459 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 11: What I would say, number one is look at the doctors, 460 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,000 so called doctors that he has surrounded himself with RSK. 461 00:28:12,279 --> 00:28:16,640 These are former doctors who once practiced medicine, or doctors 462 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,400 in name only who have never practiced the art of 463 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:20,079 medicine at. 464 00:28:20,039 --> 00:28:21,839 Speaker 4: The bedside, And so why does. 465 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,559 Speaker 11: That matter if you don't have somebody that understands the 466 00:28:24,599 --> 00:28:28,640 consequences of something fundamental like we're going to ruin the 467 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:32,279 vaccine or the infrastructure for people to have access to vaccines. 468 00:28:32,559 --> 00:28:34,720 If you've never dealt with the consequences of caring for 469 00:28:34,759 --> 00:28:36,200 a patient, you're going. 470 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 4: To run rough shot. You're you're not going to have accountability. 471 00:28:39,279 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 11: And so that's the phenotype that I worry he is 472 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,640 going to surround himself with in government and these. 473 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,279 Speaker 4: Types of committees. Really, what does that mean? 474 00:28:46,359 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 11: Fundamentally, he has this acip A revised ASIP He can 475 00:28:50,799 --> 00:28:53,599 now appoint all new seventeen members. He doesn't have to 476 00:28:53,599 --> 00:28:56,880 wait till twenty twenty eight, which was the original deadline 477 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,440 that they had to wait till twenty twenty eight. 478 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 4: Now he can do it tomorrow if you wanted to, 479 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:01,920 or in July. 480 00:29:03,039 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 11: The worry here is that this committee is powerful enough 481 00:29:06,279 --> 00:29:10,359 to completely revise the vaccine schedule for children, and he 482 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,559 can go on and say, this new committee can say, 483 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:15,559 you know what, we don't like the recommendations as they 484 00:29:15,559 --> 00:29:17,960 exist today. We're going to completely alter them. What does 485 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,920 that mean for the everyday family? That means that once 486 00:29:21,079 --> 00:29:25,960 covered vaccines by insurance companies may go away. Unfortunately, that 487 00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:29,119 is part of the risk care Willy what I hope, 488 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:34,039 and I just to say, I hope insurance companies fundamentally 489 00:29:34,079 --> 00:29:37,039 rethink how they cover vaccines because they can no longer 490 00:29:37,079 --> 00:29:39,559 rely on ASIP or what the government says. 491 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: So some of you are probably cheering at this news. 492 00:29:43,759 --> 00:29:47,640 Senator Bill Cassidy, the Republican from Louisiana, one of the 493 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:53,079 medical doctors in Congress. He was the head of the 494 00:29:53,119 --> 00:29:59,519 committee that we heard the nomination of RFK Junior to 495 00:29:59,519 --> 00:30:02,839 be the of Health and Human Services, and during that 496 00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:09,279 testimony he asked Kennedy to pledge to him to maintain 497 00:30:10,319 --> 00:30:15,720 this panel's recommendations without changes, and Kennedy recently said that 498 00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:21,599 the CDC would no longer routinely recommend COVID nineteen vaccines 499 00:30:21,599 --> 00:30:27,240 for children or pregnant women. Cassidy posted on his x account. 500 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:30,079 He says, of course, now the fear is that ASIP 501 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,039 the panel will be filled up with people who know 502 00:30:33,119 --> 00:30:38,880 nothing about vaccines. Accept suspicion. I've just spoken with Secretary Kennedy. 503 00:30:39,279 --> 00:30:42,359 I'll continue to talk to him to ensure that this 504 00:30:42,559 --> 00:30:46,240 is not the case. So the next panel of these 505 00:30:46,319 --> 00:30:50,759 vaccine doctors meets at the end of June. So Kennedy 506 00:30:50,839 --> 00:30:54,559 is going to have to name the new people to 507 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,400 replace the seventeen here within the next couple of weeks. 508 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,720 But this was I'm sure, like I said, some of 509 00:31:01,759 --> 00:31:04,599 you are cheering because you don't like vaccines, you're suspicious 510 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,920 of them. So it was RFK Junior. Others of you 511 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,440 rely upon the doctor to tell you what to do, 512 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,400 and I mean, there's nothing else you can say at 513 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,839 this point. It goes back to the shows we had 514 00:31:16,319 --> 00:31:20,240 during COVID. Talk to your family doctor, ask your doctor 515 00:31:21,039 --> 00:31:24,160 whether or not you should get this vaccine or that 516 00:31:24,319 --> 00:31:28,519 vaccine or not get them. But this is not the 517 00:31:28,559 --> 00:31:32,839 first time that Robert F. Kennedy has basically gone one 518 00:31:32,839 --> 00:31:35,079 point eighty on a word that he had given. He 519 00:31:35,759 --> 00:31:40,359 does not keep his word. That is clear. He lies. 520 00:31:40,799 --> 00:31:43,400 He's done it and been caught many times in the past. 521 00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:46,880 So he pulled a fast one. Nobody's surprised. I'm not 522 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,960 surprised that he did it, but he pulled a fast 523 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:52,599 one after being nominated and approved by the Senate to 524 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:58,920 be the head of HHS. And finally, let's cover one 525 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,920 more look back, if you will, at Joe Biden's decline, 526 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,720 because the Washington Post has come out with an article 527 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,039 that basically said that, no, there was no cover up 528 00:32:13,519 --> 00:32:16,079 by the media. The media did a perfectly good job. 529 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,839 And you've got to scratch your head that Washington Post 530 00:32:19,839 --> 00:32:21,720 thinks they did a good job of making sure that 531 00:32:21,799 --> 00:32:24,119 everybody knew that Joe Biden was having a problem. We 532 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,960 all knew if you washed any television. But the Washington 533 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:31,519 Post thinks that the media did a great job of 534 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:36,119 covering it. Carl Rove weighs in on all of that. Oh. 535 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:40,599 Speaker 13: Absolutely, Look, I was taken by there's a book out 536 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,400 about Biden's decline by Jake Typer and another journalist named Thompson. 537 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,480 They had an interview in Chicago. I was taken aback 538 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,799 by what they had to say because they couldn't admit 539 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,720 what we all know. One of them said, some people 540 00:32:54,799 --> 00:32:58,039 let their owns, referring to reporters. Some reporters let their 541 00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:01,480 own personal ideological leanings affect how they reported. 542 00:33:02,359 --> 00:33:04,519 Speaker 5: You really, yeah, exactly. 543 00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 13: Sometimes reporters got caught up in thinking about the externalities 544 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,359 and the consequences of putting this out. In other words, 545 00:33:11,359 --> 00:33:14,680 they were defending Joe Biden, knowing that he was in 546 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,240 mental decline, but they were afraid of what would happen 547 00:33:17,519 --> 00:33:20,519 to the Biden presidency and the Democratic Party's chances of 548 00:33:20,559 --> 00:33:23,799 holding onto the White House in the face of another 549 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:24,759 Trump campaign. 550 00:33:25,079 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 5: This is not what journalists should be thinking about. 551 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,279 Speaker 13: And it is clear that the mindset of most journalists 552 00:33:32,039 --> 00:33:36,079 are are center left or are further left. But as 553 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,480 journalists have a responsibility for following the facts wherever they 554 00:33:39,519 --> 00:33:42,440 take them, and on this instance they turned a blind eye. 555 00:33:42,839 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: So the Washington Post went on to talk about how 556 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:50,160 journalists really need to dig into what presidents are doing 557 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,200 more than just the policies that are coming out of 558 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,680 the White House, but really dig in as if they 559 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,680 did not do that during the first Trump administration. They 560 00:33:58,799 --> 00:34:00,759 dug in a lot, they just did not do it 561 00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:07,759 during the Biden administration. And so Carl reacts to that 562 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:08,639 comment from the. 563 00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:11,079 Speaker 13: Post, Instan says of him, you know, we had a 564 00:34:11,079 --> 00:34:14,079 couple of stories about have people being discomforted by his 565 00:34:14,159 --> 00:34:18,239 behavior at fundraisers in twenty twenty three, and that was 566 00:34:19,119 --> 00:34:21,519 plenty did go there. I mean, read these books that 567 00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:24,079 are coming out. I mean there are hundreds of people 568 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,360 who now say I was concerned about this in twenty 569 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,679 twenty three and early twenty twenty four, well before the 570 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,039 June debate, where we all saw it. Look, we knew 571 00:34:33,039 --> 00:34:35,920 it as a country, the American people are not dumb. 572 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,559 We saw him in action, and we knew he'd lost 573 00:34:38,639 --> 00:34:41,360 more than a couple of steps. And the media, though, 574 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:46,079 conspired the externalities and the consequences of reporting that the 575 00:34:46,079 --> 00:34:49,519 president was in the midst of a serious mental and 576 00:34:49,599 --> 00:34:50,599 physical decline. 577 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 1: One more question for Carl of the George Soros Foundation 578 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,360 is putting millions of dollars into an effort. They have four, 579 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,760 but this is a brand new effort to try to 580 00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:07,960 turn Texas blue. And since that's where Karl Rove lives, 581 00:35:08,039 --> 00:35:11,760 that's his base is Texas, what's he know about this 582 00:35:12,079 --> 00:35:16,039 latest effort by Soros to turn Texas pro Democrat. 583 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 5: It's not a new effort, it's an old effort. 584 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,079 Speaker 13: Soros has been pouring millions of dollars into the Democratic 585 00:35:22,119 --> 00:35:24,280 Party in Texas in an effort to turn the state 586 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,599 blue because if Republicans lose Texas, they lose the country. 587 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,039 Now full disclosure, I've been involved in an effort on 588 00:35:32,079 --> 00:35:36,599 the other side, the GP margins in Texas in twenty eighteen, 589 00:35:36,679 --> 00:35:39,159 six hundred and seventy eight thousand, was the average number 590 00:35:39,199 --> 00:35:41,920 of votes of Republicans won by by twenty twenty four, 591 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,079 it was a million two eighty. Part of it is 592 00:35:44,079 --> 00:35:46,800 because of voter registration that I helped set up with 593 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:51,239 a guy named Steve munistery five hundred and seventy nine 594 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,559 thousand new Republicans have been added to the roles in Texas. 595 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,599 Speaker 5: That's one out of every five new voters. 596 00:35:57,159 --> 00:36:00,519 Speaker 13: Thousands of Texas Federation of Republican volunteers led by a 597 00:36:00,679 --> 00:36:03,519 very able young staff guy named Rocky Gage as the 598 00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:05,280 executive director of it. 599 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,519 Speaker 5: It's that's offsetting what the Democrats are doing. 600 00:36:08,039 --> 00:36:13,480 Speaker 1: And wrapping up with Wall Street, the market today based 601 00:36:13,519 --> 00:36:15,559 on we have we haven't gotten the read out by 602 00:36:15,599 --> 00:36:17,880 the time the market closed today about what is going 603 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,840 on in London with the talks between the US and 604 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,159 China and the Wall Street traders are obviously hoping for 605 00:36:25,199 --> 00:36:28,599 something good coming out of that meeting, and that's why 606 00:36:28,639 --> 00:36:32,400 the market pushed up a little bit higher today and 607 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:40,199 tomorrow morning when I'm sorry, yeah, Wednesday morning, the consumer 608 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,719 Price Index inflation report for the month of May comes out, 609 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,400 so the markets are kind of waiting for that as well. 610 00:36:46,639 --> 00:36:48,480 But as far as the stocks today the Dow up 611 00:36:48,519 --> 00:36:51,519 one hundred and five up to forty two thousand and 612 00:36:51,599 --> 00:36:55,119 eight sixty six, the S and P up thirty two 613 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:59,760 to six thousand and thirty eight, Nasdaq up one hundred 614 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,159 and two twenty three.
