WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:02.919 Portions of the Bill Cunningham Show may be pre recorded. 2 00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:33.439 Willie Through You by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway 3 00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.240 In Hotels are serving up double points for over qualifying. 4 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.840 Stay book at Choice Hotels dot com. Now here's the 5 00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.799 man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of 6 00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:48.679 not one, but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast excellence, 7 00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:51.399 the one and only Bill Cunningham. 8 00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:53.479 Now I'm Philly Cunningham to great America, go to hear 9 00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:57.320 me with me this Sunday night, and a great tragedy occurred, 10 00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.359 of course, in central Texas, in the Austin area west 11 00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:03.799 of that San Antonio eighty two or dead news conference 12 00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.280 about three hours ago by Governor Abbott. They have confirmed 13 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:11.480 eighty two deaths which include twenty eight girls, twenty eight children. 14 00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.319 Eleven kids are still missing at about seventeen adults are missing. 15 00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.519 So the probability of the death toll going past one 16 00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.200 hundred is quite good. It's always bad when anyone has 17 00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:24.000 killed or died for any reason, but I have children 18 00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:30.719 died at a Christian evangelical camp named after called the 19 00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:35.719 Camp Mystic. Is particularly sad because innocent children, some of 20 00:01:35.799 --> 00:01:39.079 the stories like to watch some sports on Sunday afternoon, 21 00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:43.120 but I found myself glued to Fox New CNN. Also 22 00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.000 every now and then MSNBC had a lucid moment which 23 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:48.760 is quite rare putting on the actual victims of what 24 00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:51.480 they went through On the fourth of July and the evening, 25 00:01:52.040 --> 00:01:55.799 thirty foot wall of water formed and wiped out everything 26 00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:00.439 in his path, including taking the bark off trees, including 27 00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:05.079 knocking over one hundred year old oak trees. It was 28 00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:08.479 something that was in a sense predicted, not the total 29 00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.080 catastrophe by the National Weather Service, but warnings and watches 30 00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:16.560 were issued in fact, because the left again is trying 31 00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:20.800 to politicize this. How do you politicize a thunderstorm? How 32 00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.919 do you politicize a flood that used to be the 33 00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:28.960 province of the particularly insane when you think politics should 34 00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:32.439 play a role in snow or rice and storms and 35 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:36.159 hurricanes and tornadoes, et cetera. But somehow the left wants 36 00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:39.680 to politicize this and blame Donald Trump cutbacks in the 37 00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:43.280 National Weather Service, by the way, which are false. And 38 00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:46.680 also the behavior once again is George Stephanopolis this morning, 39 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.479 he's going to get another lawsuit because he put on 40 00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:52.360 Larry Summers talking about that Donald Trump is going to 41 00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:55.080 kill one hundred thousand Americans. We're going to play it 42 00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:59.479 for you later on. It's absurd that ABC News, the 43 00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:03.560 work of David Brinkley, etc. And so many others of 44 00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.159 Nightline did go to work for so long with Ted Copple. 45 00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:10.039 He's lost his way completely too. David Mure right now 46 00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:12.360 is a leftist giving us the news that they're kind 47 00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.879 of pinning the tail on Donald Trump to kill one 48 00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:19.080 hundred thousand Americans over the next ten years. And also 49 00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:24.800 George Stephanopolis spent time with an ABC News correspondent today 50 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:29.360 simply lying about the National Weather Service. So about two 51 00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.719 hours ago, I'm sorry, about three hours ago, at seven 52 00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:36.199 to twenty eight pm Eastern Time, Homeland Security put out 53 00:03:36.240 --> 00:03:40.479 a short email that says the following. The mainstream media 54 00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:43.080 is deliberately lying about the events leading up to the 55 00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:47.599 catastrophic flooding in Texas. The National Weather Service executed timely, 56 00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:53.759 precise forecasting and warnings despite unprecedented rainfall overwhelming the region. 57 00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:56.960 Then they go into a lengthy timeline of all the 58 00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.400 reports issued by the National Weather Service and it goes 59 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:02.840 on to say the mainstream media is deliberately lying about 60 00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:05.960 the events leading up to the catastrophic flooding in Texas 61 00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:09.560 and goes on and on, and they actually have the 62 00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:12.360 print out of the number of watches and warnings that 63 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:16.680 were being issued, which were beginning twelve hours before the event, 64 00:04:17.639 --> 00:04:19.839 and the point was made by those on the ground. 65 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:22.759 The last time flooding like this took place was about 66 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:27.000 half a century ago, and at that point the river 67 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:29.199 banks of the various rivers were not built up as 68 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.240 they were today. There were seven hundred and fifty girls 69 00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:36.199 who were staying at Camp Mystic, and the owner of 70 00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:38.560 Camp Mystic gave his life to save as many as 71 00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:42.240 he could. It happened at nighttime when thunder and lightning 72 00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:45.000 and terrible storms are coming, one tends to honker down, 73 00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:48.600 and they did in their cabins. And the proper warnings 74 00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.399 are issued by the National Weather Service, as they always 75 00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:54.000 are now. The flip side of the coin is, it's 76 00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.319 like crying wolf. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio, and we 77 00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:06.800 get so many watches and warnings, whether it's hot, cold, rainy, dry, stormy, windy, humid, snowy, 78 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.680 whatever it is. Many times you simply get in the 79 00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.040 habit of ignoring what the National Weather Service says. You 80 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:17.759 get them probably hundreds every year in the Midwest about 81 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.800 tornadoes are coming, it's gonna rain, it's gonna be thunderstorms, 82 00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:23.839 flash flood warnings are in effect. There's said so many times, 83 00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.360 as so many people ignore it because they think, here 84 00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:29.519 we go again. But to its credit, the National Weather 85 00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:33.360 Service and also all the local meteorologists in Austin and 86 00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:39.199 Waco and San Antonio all issued numerous watches and warnings. 87 00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:43.519 Whether radio was being used. It wasn't a failure of 88 00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:47.160 the government in a sense. It was Mother Nature dumping 89 00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:50.319 as much as twelve to fourteen inches of rain into 90 00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:53.399 an area that could not handle it. And you've seen 91 00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:58.680 the videos. It is devastating. Fact, it is beyond devastating. 92 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.560 Whenever a child lose this is her life. There's nothing 93 00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:04.800 to say. And when I get to Heaven, is I 94 00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:07.240 pray one day I will with you, Hope you and 95 00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:09.399 I will be standing at the pearly gates at some point. 96 00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:12.360 Hopefully I'll be admitted, may have to spend some time 97 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.079 in purgatory. That's a different issue. I've committed some moral 98 00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:19.040 misdemeanors in my life. No felon needs, to my knowledge, 99 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:21.480 a lot of moral misdemeanors. But I want to ask, 100 00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:26.439 God Almighty, why do you allow children in this case, 101 00:06:27.439 --> 00:06:31.160 as many as twenty eight little girls to be washed 102 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:33.879 away and killed in horrible ways. I like to know 103 00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:39.759 why those things transpire, why they happen. And I don't 104 00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:42.360 know what to say, except I said a prayer last night. 105 00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:45.839 I went to Mass today at Saint Gertrude's and I 106 00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:48.160 lit a candle for the girls and for those who 107 00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:52.000 gave their life. Currently, the death tolls eighty two, and 108 00:06:52.360 --> 00:06:54.959 that's very likely to rise, and we hope they're going 109 00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:57.560 to keep looking for more. There's eleven children still missing, 110 00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:00.680 and as many as twelve adults. Of the eighty two 111 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.759 that are dead, eighty two or two, I'm sorry, eighty 112 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:06.439 two that are dead, twenty eight our children, and it 113 00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.519 is time for sadness and reflection on their life, to 114 00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:13.120 build and make your life better, using their innocence as 115 00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:15.879 a boundary and as a sentinel to live your life better. 116 00:07:16.439 --> 00:07:19.800 It's sad, I would point out, as what happens in 117 00:07:19.800 --> 00:07:25.680 today's world. I think America's patriotism has ended. My good 118 00:07:25.680 --> 00:07:29.720 friend and yours Ben Shapiro wrote a column in town 119 00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.720 Hall and elsewhere about the end of patriotism, and he 120 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:34.879 makes the note from the Gallup poll. When I saw 121 00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:38.879 Harry Inton on CNN, He's my only reporter on CNN, 122 00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:42.800 I pay attention to Harry Innton about how America's feels 123 00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:46.560 so differently today. About the flag. July the fourth, I 124 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.959 was in a couple parades, flew the American flag, did 125 00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:54.439 everything I could honor the sacrifice of the founders of 126 00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:57.560 this country beginning in seventeen seventy six, and what they 127 00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:01.279 did for us is truly unbelievable. But the Gallup poll 128 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.720 says that if you identify as a Republican slash conservative, 129 00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:11.000 that ninety two percent of us and I'm a conservative 130 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:15.360 generally vote Republican, but I'm a conservative, ninety two percent 131 00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:19.160 are extremely or somewhat proud to be an American. You know, 132 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.920 my Moniker is the great American. I'm proud of this country. 133 00:08:22.120 --> 00:08:24.800 It's about all his piples and warts. By far is 134 00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:27.439 the greatest country in the world, by far, the greatest 135 00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:30.079 country and the history of the world. So ninety two 136 00:08:30.079 --> 00:08:33.480 percent of us, courding Gallop, that I identify as conservative 137 00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.080 are extremely proud or somewhat proud to be an American. 138 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:42.240 And that's up. In fact, in twenty twenty two was 139 00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:44.799 eighty four percent of us are proud. Now it's ninety 140 00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:48.840 two percent. Pretty good in your mind. Think about what 141 00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:52.519 Democrats say to the same question, are you proud? Are 142 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:58.120 you proud to be an American? Well, among Democrats, that number, 143 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:04.000 coding to George Gallup, is thirty six percent, down from 144 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:08.240 eighty percent ten years ago. So if you're a self 145 00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:14.000 identifying liberal Democrat, thirty six percent say you're proud to 146 00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:17.440 be an American. And if you're part of of the 147 00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.200 younger crowd, if you're under thirty years old, under thirty 148 00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.799 years of age, it's twenty two percent. In other words, 149 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:27.600 about eighty percent of young Americans are not proud to 150 00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.919 be an American. It is the death of patriotism, the 151 00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.440 end of it as we know it. It's unbelievable, needless 152 00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:38.440 is say. Gallup says, those are the worst numbers that 153 00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:42.320 they've ever experienced in fifty years. That right now here 154 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:46.960 we sit Sunday evening on July sixth, that a great 155 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:48.960 bulk of the American people are not proud to be 156 00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:52.960 an American at all overall in the whole country, that 157 00:09:53.840 --> 00:10:03.799 the number is about fifty eight percent overall everyone, independence, Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, liberals, 158 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:10.480 whatever description you might be. That the numbers is extremely low, 159 00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:13.600 which is fifty eight percent. That means about forty two 160 00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:15.639 percent of us aren't proud to be an American. The 161 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:18.159 American flag has not flown in many of our communities. 162 00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:20.559 I wonder in Los Angeles or the city of Chicago, 163 00:10:21.039 --> 00:10:25.639 did you see any American flags? How about New York City, Cincinnati? 164 00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:29.519 In certain areas yes, and other areas absolutely not. These 165 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:34.240 numbers are startling. Every occasion is used by some on 166 00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:38.840 the left as a reason to riot, protest, or boycott. 167 00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:41.679 Portland's going through a living hell right now. On the 168 00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:44.919 fourth of July, there were dozens of riots and demonstrations 169 00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.840 all over the country, not well covered by the mainstream media, 170 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.960 in which liberals are marching protests and complaining constantly about 171 00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:55.679 this great country of ours. It's truly an incredible thing 172 00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:59.440 to watch. It's not well covered, but one of the 173 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:02.759 sad things. And we're going to play the bit with 174 00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:06.360 short stuffanopolis later on Larry Summers, in which she accuses 175 00:11:06.440 --> 00:11:09.759 Donald Trump of killing one hundred thousand Americans. But this 176 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:13.200 story I thought needed some mention that there's a city 177 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:17.360 of Houston. You can imagine tonight how there should be 178 00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:23.600 in the city of Houston, Texas. Real empathy for the parents, 179 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.519 for the brothers and sisters, for the husbands, the wives, 180 00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:30.320 the grandparents, for everyone that's been lost. The number clearly 181 00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:34.519 is going to go above one hundred, extremely said in 182 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:40.080 an event that is one of those weather events, it's 183 00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:45.000 just incredibly unpredictable. Well, there's a woman in Houston as 184 00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:48.559 part of the city government in Houston, and her name 185 00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.080 is Sadie Sa d em I, saying that correctly, Sauda 186 00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.200 sa d E Perkins, she's a member of the Houston 187 00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:59.919 Food Insecurity Board, made the claim that Camp missed it 188 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:03.960 in Hunt, Texas. She said in her video, this is 189 00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:08.799 a white only conservative and Christian group. White only conservative, 190 00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:11.159 she went on, are probably going to be canceled for 191 00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:14.759 saying this, But she said, quote Camp Mystic is a 192 00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:18.279 white's only girls Christian camp. They don't even have a 193 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.039 token Asian, they don't have a token black. It's all white, 194 00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:25.879 white only conservative Christian camp. She went on to say 195 00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:30.039 that if this was a Hispanic camp or a black campout? 196 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:33.039 How about me using the term an American camp? But 197 00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.120 she went on to say nobody would give and she 198 00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:41.879 dropped the F bomb. What So there's that sickness loose 199 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:45.960 in America that somehow our country only cares about white 200 00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:49.879 evangelical girls and no one else. I would care just 201 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:53.720 as deeply about black little girls that are being killed 202 00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:57.879 for horrible purposes in major American cities and those who 203 00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.840 may be victimized by floods that I I don't see color, 204 00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:04.159 I see an American child. But if you're a left 205 00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:07.919 doing extreme liberal like this saud a woman, saud A 206 00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.559 Perkins in Houston, Texas, all you see is color and 207 00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:15.320 the Christian flag is not something she's too happy with either, 208 00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:21.240 And she dropped the F bomb in reference to this event. Sick, sad, 209 00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:24.759 and demented. It's the end, the death of patriotism as 210 00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:25.200 we know it. 211 00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:25.840 Not. 212 00:13:25.960 --> 00:13:29.679 About forty percent of us overall aren't proud to be Americans. 213 00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:34.600 Democrats thirty six percent are proud, Republicans ninety two percent 214 00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:38.279 are proud, and independence have fallen. Also, they dropped from 215 00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:42.120 seventy six percent and ten years ago to now fifty 216 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:45.799 three percent, overall fifty eight percent, and it's not getting better. 217 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:48.919 I'll just take a short break. When we come back. 218 00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:52.600 I want to play the words of George Stefanopolis, who 219 00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:56.440 was successfully sued by Donald Trump before. He's putting up 220 00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:01.200 the idea now through the mouth of Larry Summers at Clintonista, 221 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:05.679 that somehow Donald Trump himself is going to be responsible 222 00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:10.879 for killing one hundred thousand Americans. What Donald Trump is 223 00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:11.639 a murderer? 224 00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:12.879 What? 225 00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:16.720 And George Stephanoppolis served it up. He also served up 226 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:19.399 the idea that the National Weather Service was cut by 227 00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:24.360 Donald Trump that indirectly caused the tragedy in Texas. That 228 00:14:24.519 --> 00:14:28.120 is George Stephanopolis really the face of ABC News this 229 00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:30.639 side of David Muir. Also, I would point out that 230 00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:37.600 ABC News produces the view enough said, let's continue. We'll 231 00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:40.919 take some calls, of course eight sixty six six four 232 00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:44.600 seven seven three three seven eight six six six four 233 00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:47.399 seven seven three three seven. Of course, we have tonight 234 00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:51.200 dozens of stations in Texas. And if you have particularized 235 00:14:51.240 --> 00:14:54.519 knowledge about what's happening tonight, I've watched all the news conferences, 236 00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.519 I've seen the video and it's a time for sad 237 00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:00.600 reflection upon the lives of these innocent men, women and 238 00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:03.679 children that were killed because of a weather event, not 239 00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.480 because of Donald Trump. Eight sixty six six four seven 240 00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:10.200 seven three three seven. Bill Cunning in the Great American 241 00:15:10.240 --> 00:15:22.279 with you every Sunday night, my Billy hunting in the 242 00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:26.039 Great American. We're gonna play for this segue with George 243 00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.840 Stephanopolis and Larry Summers in about seven or eight minutes 244 00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:31.679 to tell you where the Left is going in this 245 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:34.879 country and how ridiculous it is. 246 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:35.879 You know. 247 00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:39.039 I have print out almost all nine hundred pages of 248 00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:42.039 the bill, which is called the Big Beautiful Bill, just 249 00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:44.759 on the issue of Medicaid. To prepare yourself for what 250 00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:47.600 you're about to hear. There are no cuts to Medicaid. 251 00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:50.879 Can I say that several times. If you're a citizen, 252 00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:55.360 you're in great shape. If you're a criminal, illegal alien, 253 00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:58.919 or if you're a freeloader, you might be in bad shape. 254 00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:01.720 Because it is not the intent of Medicaid to pay 255 00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:06.200 the medical bills of those from Lithuania or Bolivia. It's 256 00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:08.799 not our intent to pay bills of those from Mexico 257 00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:12.360 or Venezuela that are here illegally. In fact, is illegal 258 00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:15.039 for Medicaid to be used for such purposes, but the 259 00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:17.679 States do it all the time because of reimbursement. They're 260 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:21.440 not supposed to do it. So if you are an 261 00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:28.200 American that receives Medicaid, your benefits will be there for you. However, 262 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.919 if you're a freeloader on your mother's couch in the 263 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:35.320 basement and refuse to work. There's about seven million American 264 00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.879 males between the ages of eighteen and fifty nine that 265 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:42.320 get Medicaid that are capable of working, going to school, 266 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:44.759 or donating their time, that refuse to do so. That, 267 00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:46.799 by the way, that's a Bill Clinton idea for the 268 00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:50.080 nineteen nineties. So if you're one of those seven million 269 00:16:50.159 --> 00:16:54.200 men that refuse to work, or if you're here illegally, 270 00:16:54.759 --> 00:16:57.879 what part of illegal don't you understand, then you're not 271 00:16:57.879 --> 00:17:02.600 going to get Medicaid benefits we hope administered by the states. 272 00:17:03.279 --> 00:17:05.640 You know, many times in life there's a budget, but 273 00:17:05.759 --> 00:17:08.440 in medicaid, you put out a goal and what should 274 00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:12.160 be spent. Then the states determine who to give Medicaid 275 00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:14.960 benefits to, and they seek reimburst them from the Feds 276 00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:18.400 anywhere between fifty and seventy one percent. So each state 277 00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:20.880 now is going to be under a mandate not to 278 00:17:20.880 --> 00:17:24.839 give medicaid to anyone who's here illegally. How about that 279 00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:29.079 novel suggestion. So the liberals are going nuts. There is 280 00:17:29.160 --> 00:17:33.720 no cut in medicaid for Americans. There is hopefully cuts 281 00:17:33.720 --> 00:17:37.519 in medicaid for those here illegally or the freeloaders who 282 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:41.839 refuse to work. In addition to that, because of Josh Holly, 283 00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.319 there was an additional fifty billion dollars put in the budget, 284 00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:48.599 the Big Beautiful Bill passed by the House on July third, 285 00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:53.440 what was that on Friday Thursday for rural hospitals to 286 00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:57.119 get fifty billion dollars extra money. So if you're in 287 00:17:57.160 --> 00:18:00.000 a rural area, that money will be there for you. 288 00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:03.920 That bill allocates fifty billion dollars to support facilities in 289 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:06.680 so called rural areas of this country. So that's been 290 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:09.799 taken care of. Also, did you know that, of course 291 00:18:09.880 --> 00:18:14.119 not also SNAP or food stamps. The amount would very 292 00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:16.960 based on the state's payment error rate. But if you're 293 00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:20.480 getting SNAP benefits and you are an American, there are 294 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:25.400 no cuts. However, if you hear illegally, there is a cut, 295 00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.119 and if you refuse to work when you can in 296 00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:30.640 your able body, you shouldn't get a nickel of snap 297 00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:32.960 and or food stamps. Correct you agree with me? On 298 00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:35.759 raise your hand if you agree with me, I agree. 299 00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:38.440 So the media is lying to you about cuts and 300 00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:42.640 medicaid because it fits their purpose. If the facts don't matter, 301 00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:46.599 and the facts don't equip itself with your opinion, simply 302 00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:49.720 is you an opinion untethered by facts, which is what 303 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:53.440 Larry Summers did this morning with ABC News George Stephanopolis, 304 00:18:53.759 --> 00:18:55.680 And after the break, we're going to play those about 305 00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:59.200 two or three minutes of comments which accuses Donald Trump 306 00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:04.039 of killing one hundred thousand Americans. This is George Stephanopolis, 307 00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.759 who was sued successfully by Donald Trump before and Larry Summers. 308 00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:10.440 They both maybe suit again for line. Then we'll go 309 00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:14.200 to the calls eight sixty six six four seven seven 310 00:19:14.319 --> 00:19:16.960 three three seven Bill cunning into Great American with you 311 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:31.839 and all great Americans of course every Sunday night, now, 312 00:19:31.960 --> 00:19:36.319 Billy cunning into Great American. I fully understand a liberals, 313 00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:41.559 left wing extremists bounced from democratic politics in the mainstream media. 314 00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:45.240 It happens all the time. George Stefanopolis is the obvious example, 315 00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:49.160 who spent years as a Clinton easterntor operator who got 316 00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:52.119 the main job on Good Morning America also on Sunday 317 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.839 Morning because he's a liberal Democrat that represents the viewpoint 318 00:19:55.880 --> 00:19:59.480 of ABC News. That's fine, we understand that, but don't 319 00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:02.640 picture yours is something different than you. Truly are a 320 00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:06.079 democratic left wing operative. That's what he is, and that's 321 00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:09.839 what the view is. That is they represent the viewpoints 322 00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:14.359 of the editorial directors of ABC News. That's what they do. 323 00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:16.960 And ABC News on the left is not much different 324 00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:21.920 than NBC, god forbid, or CBS or the Washington Time 325 00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:24.559 or Washington Post of the New York Times. It's all 326 00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:28.119 the same thing. The opposite doesn't happen. I couldn't imagine 327 00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:31.680 Steve Bannon, who worked for Trump as senior advisor, Steve 328 00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:36.359 Bannon leaving the White House and getting the main repertorial 329 00:20:36.440 --> 00:20:39.759 job at CBS News or ABC. You're in NBC. Could 330 00:20:39.799 --> 00:20:42.799 you imagine Steve Bannon being offered ten million dollars a 331 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:47.480 year to do this week with Steve Bannon on ABC 332 00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.519 News on Sunday Morning. Is that possible? No, It's impossible. 333 00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:57.119 My concern is not the expression of different viewpoints. I 334 00:20:57.160 --> 00:21:00.960 have a viewpoint, you have a viewpoint. Monopolis has one, 335 00:21:01.000 --> 00:21:04.119 Steve Bannon has one. The lie is the mainstream media 336 00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:08.000 of picturing itself as journalists when they're not journalists. They're 337 00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.279 left doing idea logs pretending to be journalists. And you 338 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:14.880 figured it out because the trust of the mainstream media 339 00:21:15.079 --> 00:21:18.359 is now below used car dealers and god forbid attorneys, 340 00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:22.240 so we don't trust it. But they picture themselves as 341 00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:27.079 somehow independent arbitrators. That is simply not the case. Just 342 00:21:27.079 --> 00:21:30.359 two days after the flooding in central parts of Texas, 343 00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.279 the left is out right now in full force to 344 00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.279 blame the tragedy on Donald Trump. He did it. They 345 00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:39.960 want to pin every scandal on Donald Trump since he 346 00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:43.200 returned to the White House, whether true or not. The 347 00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:46.839 National Weather Service issued repeated warnings about what to do 348 00:21:46.920 --> 00:21:50.799 in central Texas. One can argue about crying wolf constantly 349 00:21:51.039 --> 00:21:53.880 with all the watches and warnings, but according to National 350 00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:57.000 Weather Service, I'm looking at the log they gave repeated warnings, 351 00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:02.880 as did local TV and radio stations all over central Texas. 352 00:22:03.119 --> 00:22:06.319 Donald Trump is not responsible for this, but then he 353 00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:10.160 puts on the course one of his fellow left wingers 354 00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:15.559 to discuss whether or not the Big Beautiful Bill is 355 00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:18.240 somehow going to kill a whole bunch of people, which 356 00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:23.640 is now what the left is doing. And so George Stephanopolis, 357 00:22:23.720 --> 00:22:27.000 doing what George Stephanopolis always does, puts on a left 358 00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:30.960 wing audiologue Larry Summers, who works with the White House 359 00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:33.839 for a long time, and here's a few of the words. 360 00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:40.599 This is allegedly objective, fair, independent journalism. On Sunday Mornings 361 00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:43.480 with George Stephanopolis, Danny Gleason hit. 362 00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:47.319 It, George, just to start with what your people have 363 00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:52.119 been describing is the biggest cut in the American safety 364 00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:56.319 net in history. The Ial Budget Lab estimates that it 365 00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:00.000 will kill over ten years, one hundred thousand people. 366 00:23:00.799 --> 00:23:04.400 That is two thousand days of death. 367 00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:08.720 Like we've seen in Texas this weekend. In my seventy years, 368 00:23:08.759 --> 00:23:13.599 I've never been as embarrassed for my country on July fourth. 369 00:23:14.200 --> 00:23:20.319 These higher interest rates, these cutbacks in subsidies to electricity, 370 00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:28.880 these reductions in the availability of housing, the fact that 371 00:23:29.400 --> 00:23:30.359 hospitals are going to. 372 00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:32.680 Have to take care of these people and pass on 373 00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:34.480 the costs to everybody else. 374 00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:38.839 And that's going to mean more inflation, more risk that 375 00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:41.240 the Fed has to raise interest rates and run the 376 00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:46.640 risk of recession, more stagflation. That's the risk facing every 377 00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:50.160 middle class family in our country because of this bill. 378 00:23:50.839 --> 00:23:55.720 And for what a million dollars over ten years to 379 00:23:55.799 --> 00:24:00.599 the top tenth of a percent of our population. Is 380 00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:04.240 that the highest priority use of federal money right now? 381 00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:08.079 I don't think so. This is a shameful act by 382 00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:12.279 our Congress and by our president that is going to 383 00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:13.440 set our country back. 384 00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:16.279 Part of the President's argument is that economic growth sparked 385 00:24:16.279 --> 00:24:18.839 by the bill will alleviate the dangers that you talk 386 00:24:18.880 --> 00:24:21.000 about here. The chair of the Council of Economic Advisors 387 00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:23.680 is up next and his councilor should report this week 388 00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:28.359 projecting eleven trillion dollars in deficit reduction from growth, higher 389 00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:30.400 tax revenue, and savings on debt payments. 390 00:24:30.599 --> 00:24:36.960 How do you respond to that, It is, respectfully nonsense. 391 00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:40.359 None of us can forecast what's going to happen to 392 00:24:40.680 --> 00:24:44.759 economic growth. What we can forecast is that when people 393 00:24:44.839 --> 00:24:48.119 have to hold government debt instead of being able to 394 00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:52.359 invest it in new capital goods, new machinery, new buildings, 395 00:24:52.720 --> 00:24:55.440 that makes the economy less productive. 396 00:24:55.920 --> 00:24:58.359 What we can forecast is. 397 00:24:58.680 --> 00:25:03.480 That when we're investing less in research and developments, investing 398 00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:08.960 less in our schools, that there is a negative impact 399 00:25:09.079 --> 00:25:10.480 on economic growth. 400 00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:14.839 All right, let me tear that apart. He just said 401 00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.920
