WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, good morning, good morning. Welcome, welcome, welcome. We

2
00:00:02.799 --> 00:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>have a US representative, Josh Burkeen on the line. First

3
00:00:07.280 --> 00:00:11.080
<v Speaker 1>of all, Josh, tell us the latest on the spending bill.

4
00:00:11.560 --> 00:00:12.679
<v Speaker 1>What's going on there?

5
00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:18.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Tom, They've decided to move forward with a continuing resolution.

6
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely changes the policy you're spending. I will be a no.

7
00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 2>It ultimately is going to be a bipartisan measure and

8
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:33.840
<v Speaker 2>that will result in, you know, continuation of spending. That

9
00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:38.960
<v Speaker 2>is a gas to me, and much less, not much less.

10
00:00:38.960 --> 00:00:40.000
<v Speaker 2>The policies also.

11
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, I understand that the House version had something that

12
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:49.079
<v Speaker 1>just basically underscored the law of the land, that says

13
00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:54.119
<v Speaker 1>there will be no people who are not US citizens

14
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>voting in this election. Now, what could have caused such

15
00:00:57.600 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 1>an oproar over in the Senate that would make mister

16
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.719
<v Speaker 1>Schumer not even called the call a vote?

17
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:05.319
<v Speaker 2>Well, yes, and of course it didn't make it that far.

18
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Last week, I was supporters of that play to add

19
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 2>to say that which would scrub the voter rolls to

20
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:15.159
<v Speaker 2>make sure that as Heritage points out, Heritage says that

21
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:17.040
<v Speaker 2>if you look at the last two decades, there's at

22
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:20.359
<v Speaker 2>least twenty thousand as many as twenty thousand March twenty

23
00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:22.680
<v Speaker 2>ten and twenty thousand in the state of Pennsylvania alone

24
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:25.760
<v Speaker 2>to have cast a ballot illegally cast a ballot. So

25
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:28.480
<v Speaker 2>people claim, well, you know this is already gets law.

26
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.280
<v Speaker 2>Well it's still happening. That's the point. And so for

27
00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:37.079
<v Speaker 2>those that would say that this is redundant it's not necessary. Okay,

28
00:01:37.079 --> 00:01:39.799
<v Speaker 2>if that's your worst objections, that's redundant, vote for it.

29
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:43.920
<v Speaker 2>But that's not the reality because that small objection of

30
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:46.920
<v Speaker 2>redundancy is not just going to keep them from supporting that.

31
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:51.799
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I guess I see that. But it sure would

32
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>be nice to go on record for most of the

33
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 1>every lawmaker to say that I believe in the constitution.

34
00:01:57.560 --> 00:01:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but the reality is you've got to you know,

35
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:04.879
<v Speaker 2>full all the Democrats who you know in the House

36
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.159
<v Speaker 2>would not support it. I think there are two Democrats

37
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:11.840
<v Speaker 2>that supported it down the House, but they they don't

38
00:02:12.319 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 2>believe that fully believe that we need to be scrubbing

39
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.319
<v Speaker 2>the voted roles. You know, it's look, only only God

40
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:22.319
<v Speaker 2>knows their motives. But I don't know what else you

41
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 2>can derive from that.

42
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Hey, I'm president now has had two separate attempts

43
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>on his life outrageous. And the more it seems that

44
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:40.319
<v Speaker 1>we find in these stories that are being released both instances,

45
00:02:40.520 --> 00:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>these people should have been caught before they even got

46
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>that close to the president. It would appear really.

47
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Sad that that we're having to you know, Monday morning

48
00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:57.280
<v Speaker 2>quarterbacks to Secret Service because they are inability to you know,

49
00:02:57.479 --> 00:02:59.800
<v Speaker 2>see that when you've got the front runner. The Majority

50
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:06.800
<v Speaker 2>is already pushing that direction months ago that Trump was

51
00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:09.039
<v Speaker 2>going to be in this position, he should have had

52
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:13.879
<v Speaker 2>presidential level protection. He's a former president. Is a is

53
00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:18.520
<v Speaker 2>another element of this. So it's it's you know, come

54
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 2>lately that the administration has finally decided to implement that

55
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:25.960
<v Speaker 2>we as a few days ago, did it legislatively and

56
00:03:26.039 --> 00:03:27.919
<v Speaker 2>sent it to the Senate, saying that you have to

57
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:30.599
<v Speaker 2>have the same personnel and you have a major party

58
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.080
<v Speaker 2>candidate as as if they were already in office. So

59
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.000
<v Speaker 2>you know that is that is relative to what happened

60
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:41.400
<v Speaker 2>is Florida, regarding that they didn't make have the personnel

61
00:03:41.439 --> 00:03:45.400
<v Speaker 2>to do the sweep. Trudeos to the Secret Service agent

62
00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.840
<v Speaker 2>who had the line of side on the barrel and

63
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:56.400
<v Speaker 2>took the shots. That was an execution of a good detail.

64
00:03:56.800 --> 00:04:01.120
<v Speaker 2>What it was not an execution. Execution of the plan

65
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Speaker 2>was making sure that he never had the opportunity to

66
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.080
<v Speaker 2>be there for twelve hours lining in wait for the

67
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:10.840
<v Speaker 2>President United States. When it comes to Butler, I mean

68
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, I went to Butler, I saw the layout.

69
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:18.000
<v Speaker 2>We heard enough testimony Homeland Security. He was a total

70
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:23.160
<v Speaker 2>total mess. When you have twenty minutes before the shots

71
00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:28.319
<v Speaker 2>are fired, communication breakdown where they're reaching into the incident

72
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:33.240
<v Speaker 2>command center and this is the outer perimeter and saying

73
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.199
<v Speaker 2>to the Secret Service within the incident command center, hey,

74
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 2>here's a picture of this guy. We think he could

75
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.480
<v Speaker 2>be a threat to this to the president. What do

76
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:47.079
<v Speaker 2>we do? And they said here's They then say text

77
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the number or text this photo to this numbers. Twenty

78
00:04:50.680 --> 00:04:56.120
<v Speaker 2>minutes before this thing, before the shots were fired, they

79
00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:58.319
<v Speaker 2>should there should have been somebody within the incident command

80
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 2>center the moment the out of premitor delegated responsibility to

81
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:05.959
<v Speaker 2>pay attention to any threats, the moment that got to

82
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:07.240
<v Speaker 2>the end of the commands, and there should have been

83
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:11.519
<v Speaker 2>the authority to shut shut that uh stage appearance down

84
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 2>and not allow them to go on stage, so that

85
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:19.560
<v Speaker 2>that whole process was abysmal. And you know, I filed

86
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:23.839
<v Speaker 2>legislation because we are already hearing that there was major

87
00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 2>errors made by the personnel that were on the advanced team.

88
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:29.920
<v Speaker 2>And my contention is there's some of that because of

89
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.319
<v Speaker 2>some of the DEI typed hiring. So we filed the

90
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:35.360
<v Speaker 2>build that says on merit only, you have to meet

91
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:37.399
<v Speaker 2>the same qualifiers. I don't care what gender you are,

92
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:41.800
<v Speaker 2>you have to meet the same qualifiers when it comes

93
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.199
<v Speaker 2>to being able to protect. You know, in this situation,

94
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.079
<v Speaker 2>the likely next president the United States.

95
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:53.199
<v Speaker 1>Boy, tell you, it's it's just crazy. This is this season,

96
00:05:53.279 --> 00:05:56.199
<v Speaker 1>as they say, you know, where the election comes into

97
00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:59.839
<v Speaker 1>play and some people get a little crazy. And this

98
00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:03.279
<v Speaker 1>is where you have to rely on your government institutions

99
00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:06.639
<v Speaker 1>like your Secret Service. They've got to be there. They've

100
00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:08.879
<v Speaker 1>got to show up for the game. They've got to

101
00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:09.759
<v Speaker 1>be game ready.

102
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Well, I mean, look, when you are trying to

103
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:19.519
<v Speaker 2>advance people because of anything outside of merit, outside of

104
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:23.240
<v Speaker 2>their ability to perform on the job. And you know,

105
00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:25.839
<v Speaker 2>in this situation with Cheetles, she's trying to advance people

106
00:06:26.160 --> 00:06:31.240
<v Speaker 2>because of gender. Look great, there's many women within the

107
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:34.720
<v Speaker 2>Secret Service that do a great job but then there's

108
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:38.480
<v Speaker 2>also women within the Secret Service that are saying this

109
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:41.920
<v Speaker 2>is ridiculous that they were not held to the same standard.

110
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.120
<v Speaker 2>This isn't coming from me. There's some national personalities on

111
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:49.439
<v Speaker 2>some more moderate many to show saying this, and we're

112
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:54.680
<v Speaker 2>saying this months ago. So common sense says, you hire

113
00:06:54.759 --> 00:06:57.800
<v Speaker 2>based on the ability to do the job, not because

114
00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:01.120
<v Speaker 2>you're trying to meet a certain metrics. You can you know,

115
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:05.639
<v Speaker 2>be pc. That's the statness of this culture where we're headed.

116
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:07.839
<v Speaker 2>Content of the character.

117
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:12.079
<v Speaker 1>Josh. We've touched on some hot wire issues, but there

118
00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 1>are other issues that play that to kind of bind

119
00:07:16.319 --> 00:07:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma and Washington, d C. What are some of the

120
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>things that you're working on in that realm.

121
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:26.079
<v Speaker 2>Well, we've you know, everybody I know gets tired of

122
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:28.600
<v Speaker 2>me talking about our spending trouble, So let me pivot.

123
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:30.399
<v Speaker 2>So he doesn't have been so kind to give me

124
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:32.600
<v Speaker 2>the opportunity to talk about that often. We've got to

125
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 2>have growth too, Tom, And one of the things I'm

126
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:41.240
<v Speaker 2>interested in, you know, have excitement around, is the opportunity

127
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:44.879
<v Speaker 2>to unleash energy dominance in this country. We're gonna have

128
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:47.120
<v Speaker 2>to change, have to have a change administration before that's

129
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:51.319
<v Speaker 2>going to be allowed. You have in Oklahoma, we've lost

130
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>the largest share of extraction related jobs and on the

131
00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:58.720
<v Speaker 2>gas sector. And then with the Democrat administration, if we

132
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.879
<v Speaker 2>don't change the inflation we're duction acts, we're set to

133
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:04.360
<v Speaker 2>move from like twelve percent of our electric grid is

134
00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:06.680
<v Speaker 2>based on wind and solar. Now, because of that bill

135
00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 2>they passed that Tamala Harris was a deciding to vote

136
00:08:08.879 --> 00:08:12.480
<v Speaker 2>on a few years ago, we're moving by twenty fifty.

137
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:16.199
<v Speaker 2>Energy Information Administration says where sixty percent of our electric

138
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:21.079
<v Speaker 2>grid nationwide will be built upon unreliable wind and solar.

139
00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:25.319
<v Speaker 2>So it's a mess that is about to hit us

140
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:28.600
<v Speaker 2>and it's going to be, you know, really bad for

141
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Oklahoma because of our high number of government jobs, of

142
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:34.320
<v Speaker 2>falsipulary jobs.

143
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:36.519
<v Speaker 1>Is there anything else you'd like to pass a log

144
00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:37.240
<v Speaker 1>to our listeners?

145
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.120
<v Speaker 2>Look, Tom, I'm meeting here shortly. There's a small group

146
00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:49.919
<v Speaker 2>of us meeting with Katley Means and RSK. The the

147
00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:55.159
<v Speaker 2>whole discussion around food and the poisoning of our young

148
00:08:55.200 --> 00:09:01.039
<v Speaker 2>adults through high processed food that you know is long

149
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:05.759
<v Speaker 2>term having health costs for Medicaid and Medicare population. So

150
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:07.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm really excited about this conversation I'm about to get

151
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:12.399
<v Speaker 2>into or with RFK and CALLI means. I've got a

152
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.639
<v Speaker 2>bill that I'm may be aware of that I filed

153
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:18.480
<v Speaker 2>last year with Marco Rubio that says on the Supplemental

154
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Nutritional Assistance Program that we're going to stop allowing the

155
00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:25.639
<v Speaker 2>expenditure of junk food to be a part of the

156
00:09:25.679 --> 00:09:28.799
<v Speaker 2>food stamp program because we end up paying for that.

157
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:31.279
<v Speaker 2>And you know, if you're listening to some of the

158
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>things that that Cali Means and RK have been talking about,

159
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:38.879
<v Speaker 2>fifty percent of our teenagers or obese, seventy five percent

160
00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:41.200
<v Speaker 2>of our adult population. And I said, so much of

161
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:44.320
<v Speaker 2>this is driving these health outcomes. Not out of ten

162
00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 2>healthcare outcomes they keep talking about are related to our diet,

163
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:52.399
<v Speaker 2>of these of these you know, incidents that lead to death.

164
00:09:53.080 --> 00:09:59.360
<v Speaker 2>And we have a population that has become so ingrained

165
00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:03.120
<v Speaker 2>and a gut vera meant that is embedded with companies

166
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:07.919
<v Speaker 2>that are making a profit by selling into government systems

167
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 2>that which is leading to higher health costs in this country.

168
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:14.399
<v Speaker 2>So I look forward to the Trump administration and RFK

169
00:10:14.519 --> 00:10:17.559
<v Speaker 2>embedded somewhere to where we can can repeal some of

170
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:20.039
<v Speaker 2>this and the Healthy Snap Bill that we've introduced, I

171
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:21.039
<v Speaker 2>hope is one of.

172
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:23.600
