Congress Votes to Raise Debt Ceiling AGAIN, I explain how much it is going to cost you! · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

0:01
Speaker 1: The Senate has decided they're going to go along with
0:03
Speaker 1: the House in essence and send it to the President's
0:07
Speaker 1: desk with just days away from the quote default deadline,
0:11
Speaker 1: and as long as Joe Biden doesn't fall down again,
0:14
Speaker 1: I'm assuming it's going to sign this thing. So what
0:17
Speaker 1: does it actually mean for the American people? Well, we're
0:20
Speaker 1: going to give you a glimpse of what happened in Washington,
0:23
Speaker 1: d C. Today with my co host of Verdict to
0:25
Speaker 1: Ted Cruz. And if you've never downloaded verdictra Ted Cruz,
0:29
Speaker 1: do it.
0:29
Speaker 2: We're going to do a.
0:30
Speaker 1: Deep dive this morning on how we got to this
0:34
Speaker 1: point from Washington's perspective. Senator, always a pleasure to have
0:39
Speaker 1: you on the show. And this deal was done. It
0:43
Speaker 1: is a deal that Democrats seem to be pretty happy with.
0:46
Speaker 1: There's a lot of Republicans that actually seem to be
0:49
Speaker 1: pretty happy with it. There's no indication the president's not
0:52
Speaker 1: going to sign this. So were there positive things in
0:57
Speaker 1: this bill that conservatives true can can feel good about?
1:02
Speaker 3: Oh, look, sure, there's not nothing in the bill that
1:06
Speaker 3: There are some elements. There is some expansion of work
1:10
Speaker 3: requirements for welfare that's beneficial, And there is some recision
1:17
Speaker 3: of unspent COVID emergency funds that's beneficial. And there are
1:23
Speaker 3: some marginal spending cuts so that's beneficial. There's also some
1:30
Speaker 3: modest improvements in permitting and reforms. The problem is the
1:36
Speaker 3: price for that was four trillion dollars in debt and
1:41
Speaker 3: the benefits we got were much much smaller than the consequence.
1:48
Speaker 1: There's always the question of, Okay, we got power back
1:52
Speaker 1: in the House center, did the House do enough to
1:56
Speaker 1: push back from the brink? Of course, the threat right
2:01
Speaker 1: there's going to be a collapse. We're going to default.
2:03
Speaker 1: It will be horrific. America never can default on its loans.
2:06
Speaker 1: It doesn't default on its loans. And the White House
2:10
Speaker 1: wasn't speaking to McCarthy for quite some time after they
2:13
Speaker 1: had to sit down, and even the next day I
2:15
Speaker 1: think they were in a prayer breakfast and McCarthy said,
2:17
Speaker 1: you know, They even said to the room, we're going
2:19
Speaker 1: to get together again soon and work on this. They
2:22
Speaker 1: clearly wanted to wait till the end so that this
2:25
Speaker 1: thing could get rammed through Congress quickly without a lot
2:29
Speaker 1: of people even having enough time to really dive into it. Yes,
2:33
Speaker 1: Thank goodness, there was seventy two hours to look into it.
2:36
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, this was a catastrophic,
2:39
Speaker 1: chaotic moment that was created by design. Did the Republicans
2:44
Speaker 1: of the House stay true to what they promised the
2:46
Speaker 1: voters when we gave them the House in November.
2:49
Speaker 3: Well, look, there were a number of House Conservatives that
2:52
Speaker 3: ultimately voted no on this deal. And if you're a conservative,
2:56
Speaker 3: you voted no. This was a deal where the majority
3:01
Speaker 3: of the votes that came for it came from Democrats.
3:04
Speaker 3: The Democrats in the Senate, all but five Democrats voted
3:08
Speaker 3: for this deal. We had thirty one Republicans vote no
3:14
Speaker 3: on this deal. So you can see from the votes,
3:17
Speaker 3: you can see from where people lined up. Mitt Romney
3:21
Speaker 3: was a yes. That tells you a lot about where
3:24
Speaker 3: this bill ended up. I was a no. Mike Lee
3:28
Speaker 3: was a no. Ran Paul was a no. If you
3:30
Speaker 3: are a conservative, you voted no. And the reason is
3:36
Speaker 3: it's exactly what Joe Biden has told his people that
3:39
Speaker 3: the Biden Agenda got funded. In this We're at thirty
3:43
Speaker 3: two trillion dollars in debt two years from now, will
3:46
Speaker 3: be at least at thirty six trillion dollars in debt,
3:49
Speaker 3: So a four trillion dollar blank check is what the
3:53
Speaker 3: Democrats got. We did not cut the eighty billion a
3:57
Speaker 3: new funding for eighty seven thousand new IRSA that was
4:01
Speaker 3: in the original bill the House passed, but that got
4:03
Speaker 3: jettisoned by the White House. We did not add work
4:07
Speaker 3: requirements for Medicaid that was in the original bill the
4:10
Speaker 3: House pass but.
4:10
Speaker 2: That was not in this final bill.
4:12
Speaker 3: We did not cut spending back significantly to get anywhere
4:18
Speaker 3: approaching pre COVID levels. The first version of this bill
4:22
Speaker 3: made a significant step that way.
4:24
Speaker 2: This bill does not.
4:25
Speaker 3: It accepts the explosion of federal spending that came from COVID,
4:30
Speaker 3: and it cooks it into the baseline. And so there's
4:33
Speaker 3: a reason that Democrats are celebrating right now, which is
4:38
Speaker 3: that they just got a Republican House and a whole
4:43
Speaker 3: bunch of Republicans in the Senate to support the vast
4:47
Speaker 3: majority of the Biden spending agenda.
4:50
Speaker 1: We're obviously going to do a deep dive into this
4:52
Speaker 1: on verdict with Ted Cruz. If you've never download a
4:55
Speaker 1: vertict with Ted Cruz, do it, and we're going to
4:56
Speaker 1: have that this morning for you. Out as well, so
4:59
Speaker 1: that you can We're going to really go back walk
5:02
Speaker 1: you through all this and even go into more things
5:04
Speaker 1: like the irs in depth. Last question though on this
5:07
Speaker 1: for you, Senator, and that is the mindset of this
5:11
Speaker 1: White House after this, and people were very concerned that
5:17
Speaker 1: this was going to turn into a default scenario? Was
5:20
Speaker 1: that all just political posturing? And when are we going
5:23
Speaker 1: to have to go through this crap all over again?
5:25
Speaker 1: Because I'm starting to get a little fatigued. I think
5:27
Speaker 1: a lot of people are that it's like, you know, armageddon,
5:30
Speaker 1: that the sky has fallen, chicken little every six months
5:34
Speaker 1: every year, When are we going to do this charade again?
5:37
Speaker 3: Well, look, Ben, that is by design. That is what
5:39
Speaker 3: the White House wants. That's what leadership in both houses want,
5:44
Speaker 3: because when there's a crisis, when they say we're about
5:46
Speaker 3: to default on the debt, that's how they get the
5:50
Speaker 3: Democrats and a bunch of squishy Republicans to agree to
5:53
Speaker 3: trillions more in spending. And they do it over and
5:56
Speaker 3: over and over again. And I would say it's like
5:59
Speaker 3: Lucy and Charlie Brown with the football, but it's not
6:02
Speaker 3: even like that, because at this point, nobody doubts they're
6:07
Speaker 3: going to pull the football out of the way. We
6:09
Speaker 3: get the game at this point. But there are a
6:11
Speaker 3: lot of Republicans who are perfectly happy with it. They
6:13
Speaker 3: don't want to want to rock the boat. And I
6:16
Speaker 3: will say too many of them are our content to
6:20
Speaker 3: manage the decline of the republic. Look in twenty seventeen,
6:24
Speaker 3: that was just five years ago. In twenty seventeen, the
6:29
Speaker 3: national debt was twenty trillion dollars. Today in twenty twenty
6:35
Speaker 3: three it is thirty two trillion dollars. That is a
6:40
Speaker 3: massive increase. And what did Congress do this week? Said
6:45
Speaker 3: thirty two trillion is not enough. Let's go to thirty
6:48
Speaker 3: six trillion dollars. We are bankrupting our kids and grandkids.
6:53
Speaker 3: And the game is to come up to a cliff
6:58
Speaker 3: where they threaten. It alternates. Half the time they threaten
7:01
Speaker 3: a default on the debt, half the time they threaten
7:03
Speaker 3: a government shutdown. And it's one after the other. We're
7:06
Speaker 3: going to have the government shutdown fight the end of September,
7:09
Speaker 3: and it will always be this crisis. If you don't
7:12
Speaker 3: agree to further bankrupt the country, this terrible thing will
7:14
Speaker 3: happen in September.
7:16
Speaker 1: Mark your calendar is what you're saying, because that's when
7:18
Speaker 1: that is all going to happen again after summer.
7:21
Speaker 2: Yep.
7:22
Speaker 3: And I got to tell you when I was new
7:24
Speaker 3: in the Senate, I was elected in twenty twelve, so
7:26
Speaker 3: eleven years ago, when I was newly elected, that there
7:29
Speaker 3: was a game that I discovered that every six months
7:31
Speaker 3: or year, the graybeards in the Senate would say, whatever
7:34
Speaker 3: the fight was, they'd say, no, no, no, no, you
7:37
Speaker 3: need to understand ted you don't fight on funding the government.
7:41
Speaker 3: You wait for the death ceiling. Then the death ceiling
7:44
Speaker 3: would happen. They said, no, no, no, no, you need to
7:46
Speaker 3: understand you don't fight on the death ceiling, wait for
7:49
Speaker 3: funding the government. And it's like they have the memory
7:52
Speaker 3: of hummingbirds. They don't remember six months ago they said
7:56
Speaker 3: the opposite. And they keep playing that game over and
7:58
Speaker 3: over and over again. And I will say one of
8:01
Speaker 3: the things that's changed is the grassroots, I think has
8:03
Speaker 3: gotten a lot savvier. They understand this game now that
8:07
Speaker 3: you don't get to thirty two trillion dollars in debt
8:10
Speaker 3: without both parties energetically jumping in the mud and rolling
8:15
Speaker 3: around with the pork.
8:17
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's going to be interesting to see what
8:19
Speaker 1: happens in September. It's amazing how many of you guys
8:22
Speaker 1: that listen to the show that may not actually be
8:24
Speaker 1: listening to Verdict. And I'm going to do a better
8:26
Speaker 1: job of having the Center on and preview what we're
8:29
Speaker 1: doing on Verdict to take Cruz. So grab it, download it,
8:33
Speaker 1: hit that follow subscribe or auto download button wherever you
8:36
Speaker 1: get your podcasts where you're listening to this podcast right now,
8:40
Speaker 1: and we'll do much more on this. I'm going to
8:42
Speaker 1: ask him a question and on Verdict, and it's going
8:45
Speaker 1: to deal with our voter is going to be angry
8:49
Speaker 1: come presidential election time because we keep expanding the budget
8:54
Speaker 1: and is this going to backfire on Republicans That I'm
8:57
Speaker 1: going to ask him in Verdict, So you're going to
8:59
Speaker 1: want to hear his answer to that as well.
9:00
Speaker 2: Center.
9:01
Speaker 1: It's a pleasure as always thinks are coming on the show.
9:04
Speaker 1: There was a tumble that took place with Joe Biden,
9:08
Speaker 1: and if you want to know how the media works,
9:11
Speaker 1: and by the way, Joe Biden is okay, I want
9:13
Speaker 1: to make that clear. He was at a graduation ceremony
9:18
Speaker 1: and this graduation ceremony was for the Air Force. He
9:21
Speaker 1: was speaking and then he was going to go sit
9:24
Speaker 1: back down. He fell during that graduation ceremony. Now I'm
9:29
Speaker 1: glad he's okay, and I want to make this clear,
9:32
Speaker 1: I'm not making fun of him. I also want to
9:34
Speaker 1: make that clear. When you get older and if you
9:37
Speaker 1: have loved ones have gotten older and you've watched or
9:39
Speaker 1: them fall or seen the aftermath that broken arms or
9:42
Speaker 1: hips or hitting your head, it's not a joke and
9:45
Speaker 1: I don't want it to come off that way. But
9:47
Speaker 1: it also tells you about the cognitive decline and the
9:50
Speaker 1: decline of the president United States of America, and the
9:52
Speaker 1: rest of the world is seeing it now. To be clear,
9:54
Speaker 1: we've seen him now, and this is a real issue
9:57
Speaker 1: in my opinion. We've seen him fall off of bike
10:00
Speaker 1: that wasn't moving. We've seen him fall not once, not twice,
10:03
Speaker 1: but three times going upstairs on Air Force one. We
10:07
Speaker 1: have seen the protocol for those stairs changed to now
10:10
Speaker 1: the President's not walking up majority of the time up
10:13
Speaker 1: those tall stairs.
10:14
Speaker 2: He's walking on to.
10:15
Speaker 1: The lower galley of an airplane on those lower stairs,
10:19
Speaker 1: apparently to make it easier on him.
10:21
Speaker 2: That's also a problem.
10:23
Speaker 1: Our adversaries are seeing this, it's also a problem. And
10:27
Speaker 1: then we see the President United States America fall again
10:30
Speaker 1: today at the Air Force Academy. Now what bothers me
10:34
Speaker 1: about this is not just the real issue of the
10:37
Speaker 1: cognitive decline and how often it's happening, and it seems
10:39
Speaker 1: to be happening more often, but it's also how the
10:43
Speaker 1: media covers it. When this story broke, my phone went nuts,
10:47
Speaker 1: people going have you seen?
10:48
Speaker 2: Did you see it?
10:48
Speaker 1: It's so bad? YadA YadA, YadA, Right, and then it
10:51
Speaker 1: starts trending on social media. The part I care about
10:55
Speaker 1: of the headlines, so I went to look and see
10:58
Speaker 1: how like the AP and Royal and others are following
11:01
Speaker 1: or and covering this. Here is the headline from Reuters,
11:05
Speaker 1: and this will tell you just how biased the media
11:07
Speaker 1: really is. Quote Biden trips and falls during graduation ceremony
11:13
Speaker 1: recovers quickly. I've never seen so many people in the
11:19
Speaker 1: media try to editorialize and protect a president instead of
11:23
Speaker 1: just telling you that Biden trips and falls during graduation ceremony.
11:27
Speaker 1: They then feel like it's their job to be like
11:29
Speaker 1: the press agent of the president, say, oh, buddy, recovered quickly.
11:33
Speaker 1: Colorado Springs, Colorado Reuters. President Joe Biden tripped and fell
11:38
Speaker 1: after handing out the last diploma a graduation ceremony at
11:41
Speaker 1: the US Air Force Academy on Thursday.
11:43
Speaker 2: The eighty year old.
11:44
Speaker 1: US president quickly got up on one knee, helped by
11:48
Speaker 1: three people, and walk back to a seat unassisted. All right,
11:52
Speaker 1: I've watched the video, and this is again how bad
11:55
Speaker 1: the liberal media is. Yes, the president did fall. He
12:00
Speaker 1: did not quickly get up. To make it clear, getting
12:04
Speaker 1: to one knee is something that you could say, Okay,
12:07
Speaker 1: I guess.
12:08
Speaker 2: That's kind of good news.
12:09
Speaker 1: But it was very clear that it took three strong
12:12
Speaker 1: men secret servicemen i'm assuming with the earpieces in their
12:15
Speaker 1: ear to clearly get him off the ground. He needed
12:19
Speaker 1: assistance to get up. Did he walk over to his
12:22
Speaker 1: seat unassisted? That is correct, But the way that they
12:25
Speaker 1: framed that sentence is to basically say, hey, he's eighty
12:28
Speaker 1: years old and he got to a knee, who really quickly?
12:30
Speaker 2: Then he was held by three people, but.
12:31
Speaker 1: Don't worry, it was quick, and then he walked to
12:33
Speaker 1: his seat on his seat unassisted.
12:35
Speaker 2: So see, it's all fine. It's not all fine.
12:40
Speaker 1: It's obvious the president is in The cognitive decline in
12:42
Speaker 1: his age is a real issue. Now back to Reuter's
12:46
Speaker 1: how they described. As Biden was helped up, he pointed
12:48
Speaker 1: behind him, seeming to indicate.
12:50
Speaker 2: What he tripped over.
12:52
Speaker 1: White House communications director said on Twitter that Biden was fine.
12:56
Speaker 1: There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands.
13:00
Speaker 1: He explained the fall came after Biden delivered a commencement
13:03
Speaker 1: address to a flag waving audience, where he warned graduates
13:08
Speaker 1: they will enter service in an increasingly unstable world, citing
13:11
Speaker 1: challenges from Russia and China.
13:14
Speaker 2: Biden now eighty.
13:16
Speaker 1: They want you to believe that his doctors have declared
13:18
Speaker 1: him healthy and fit for duty after a physical exam
13:21
Speaker 1: in February. Any time you're older, they ask you a question,
13:26
Speaker 1: have you fallen lately? How often have you fallen? Is
13:29
Speaker 1: the is the the you know? Is the second question
13:33
Speaker 1: that comes if you answer the first one the right way.
13:35
Speaker 1: This president has fallen multiple times on camera. My question
13:39
Speaker 1: is how many times is he falling behind the scenes.
13:43
Speaker 2: Now.
13:43
Speaker 1: I understand that people fall I have fallen down, but
13:46
Speaker 1: not this often, and certainly not in public this often.
13:51
Speaker 1: The president of the United States of America shouldn't be
13:54
Speaker 1: falling this much. And this does have to do with age,
13:58
Speaker 1: and they're saying and they're falling all over themselves because
14:02
Speaker 1: they know what a liability this is politically. They understand
14:05
Speaker 1: what a liability this is for the president politically, and
14:08
Speaker 1: that's why they're having to write these articles the way
14:11
Speaker 1: that they're writing them.
14:11
Speaker 2: Right.
14:12
Speaker 1: Biden trips and falls during graduation ceremony, but recovers quickly.
14:16
Speaker 1: Then he goes to a seat on assistant even though
14:18
Speaker 1: it took him three people to get up. But don't worry,
14:20
Speaker 1: when he was getting up, he at least got to
14:22
Speaker 1: one knee, crouched down by himself. This is insane, but
14:28
Speaker 1: it's exactly what you should expect.
14:31
Speaker 2: From this media.
14:32
Speaker 1: They are going to prop him up on one knee,
14:35
Speaker 1: prop him up with anybody they can.
14:36
Speaker 2: They're going to hold him up.
14:38
Speaker 1: They're going to do whatever they have to do to
14:39
Speaker 1: get him across the finish line. And it's also an issue,
14:42
Speaker 1: I would argue a senior abuse. This is also the abuse,
14:45
Speaker 1: handicap abuse that they did to Fetterman. They knew that
14:48
Speaker 1: Fetterman couldn't say anything. They knew that Fetterman was a
14:53
Speaker 1: had major problems. They knew that Fetterman was someone that
14:58
Speaker 1: clearly couldn't serve. We know this. He's walking around in
15:05
Speaker 1: hoodies and jeans. Senator Fetterman staffer trying to basically take
15:12
Speaker 1: over for Fetterman. His staff is he's not doing anything.
15:16
Speaker 2: You know.
15:17
Speaker 1: Back in and the Ap again, another example of a bias.
15:20
Speaker 1: How biased the liberal media is. This is their headline
15:22
Speaker 1: from this week. Back in hoodies and Jim Schwartz. Fetterman
15:25
Speaker 1: tackles Senate life after depression treatment. I want to be
15:29
Speaker 1: queer about this. I actually feel sorry for Senator Fetterman.
15:32
Speaker 2: I really do.
15:34
Speaker 1: I feel sorry for him and his life after the stroke.
15:38
Speaker 1: Checking himself into the hospital for clinical depression is something
15:41
Speaker 1: that I'm glad that he did this. But the idea
15:45
Speaker 1: that he can serve this country and the people of
15:49
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania adequately is absurd. They know it, but they don't care.
15:54
Speaker 1: They just said, Hey, he's the candidate, we got to win,
15:56
Speaker 1: we got to win the Senate.
15:58
Speaker 2: We don't care. You know.
16:00
Speaker 1: You look at Fetterman and he chaired his first committee
16:03
Speaker 1: hearing when he came back from being treated for clinical
16:06
Speaker 1: depression and he had to read from his notes. Now
16:09
Speaker 1: everything you're about to hear is him reading from his notes.
16:12
Speaker 1: It's obvious that the Democrats are abusing this man.
16:16
Speaker 4: And I will work in this farm bill to modernize SNAP,
16:20
Speaker 4: to work to recipients in the twenty first century. I
16:26
Speaker 4: look forward to hearing from you, your witness on this
16:30
Speaker 4: newstitchen assistance on the Farm Bill. And I will now
16:34
Speaker 4: turn into Senator Braun for any opening comments that he
16:37
Speaker 4: would like to make.
16:41
Speaker 1: The whole room is watching like you would watch your
16:43
Speaker 1: kindergarten graduation student read something from a book. The whole
16:48
Speaker 1: room is looking at him, trying to decipher what it
16:51
Speaker 1: is he's trying to say. Right, this is what's happening now.
16:56
Speaker 1: This is the Democratic Party. They will do anything to
17:00
Speaker 1: keep power, including prop up a John fetterman, prop up
17:04
Speaker 1: and hire a guy elected guy in Pennsylvania that was
17:08
Speaker 1: literally dead on election day.
17:10
Speaker 2: They did that.
17:11
Speaker 1: And they will tell you with headlines that when Joe
17:14
Speaker 1: Biden trips and falls during a graduation ceremony, don't worry.
17:17
Speaker 1: He recovered quickly and you should praise him because he
17:20
Speaker 1: got to one knee before three massive men helped.
17:23
Speaker 2: Him to his feet.
17:25

18:45
Speaker 1: just by the way Joe Biden's fall that was the
18:49
Speaker 1: problem at the Air Force Academy and the media covering
18:54
Speaker 1: for him, claiming that he got to one knee. I
18:57
Speaker 1: watched the video again just a second ago while I
18:59
Speaker 1: was playing some of the fed and stuff, and I
19:00
Speaker 1: realized they actually lied to you about that. He didn't
19:02
Speaker 1: get to one knee on his own. The hands were
19:05
Speaker 1: already under his arm helping him get to one knee.
19:09
Speaker 1: So Reuters also lied to you about that. You can
19:12
Speaker 1: go watch the video for yourself. I'll put it up
19:14
Speaker 1: on all our social media accounts and you can watch it,
19:16
Speaker 1: or you may have already seen it by now. But
19:19
Speaker 1: it was also what he was saying in the speech.
19:22
Speaker 1: Let me give you example. There was one really awkward
19:25
Speaker 1: moment in the speech where he was talking about the
19:30
Speaker 1: people that apparently did the Air Force flyover, and this
19:34
Speaker 1: is what the president had to say to those graduating.
19:37
Speaker 5: By the way, I met with who are those guys
19:40
Speaker 5: that fly over?
19:40
Speaker 2: Shortly?
19:41
Speaker 5: I heard them, haven't three of them are women, So
19:51
Speaker 5: don't screw around, guys.
19:54
Speaker 2: Three of them are women, so don't screw around. Guys.
19:57
Speaker 2: Who are those people?
19:58
Speaker 5: You?
19:58
Speaker 1: Those got you that fly over short? Now you could
20:01
Speaker 1: see the people on just so you knew. You could
20:05
Speaker 1: see the people that were actually in the stands behind them,
20:11
Speaker 1: and they're looking around, like, what in the hell are
20:14
Speaker 1: you talking about? What is this all about? What are
20:17
Speaker 1: you saying? What it like?
20:19
Speaker 2: Like? What are you?
20:20
Speaker 1: Where are you going with this? And that wasn't the
20:24
Speaker 1: only weird part in this speech. There was another part
20:27
Speaker 1: that was weird when the President said this met.
20:32
Speaker 5: In the Oval office, in my office with twelve leading
20:36
Speaker 5: and it's gonna be eight leading scientists in the area
20:40
Speaker 5: of AI. Some are very worried that AI can actually
20:46
Speaker 5: overtake you and thinking and planning. So we got a
20:51
Speaker 5: lot to deal with.
20:54
Speaker 1: I'm still trying to figure out it was twelve guys, No,
20:57
Speaker 1: it was eight guys, and it was nine guys, and
20:59
Speaker 1: we're talking about AI. I'm sure they could take over
21:02
Speaker 1: for what you're doing. And then Biden says he asked
21:05
Speaker 1: if he could do loops and barrel rolls in a glider,
21:08
Speaker 1: but the Secret Service said no, we'll shoot you down.
21:11
Speaker 1: I doubt they would say that to the President of
21:13
Speaker 1: the United States of America.
21:14
Speaker 2: Listen.
21:14
Speaker 5: A few months ago I called to speak to my
21:17
Speaker 5: national security advisor.
21:20
Speaker 2: He was out here well. I was told he was unavailable.
21:24
Speaker 5: Turns out, first to Andrew Deever had about doing loops
21:28
Speaker 5: and barrel rolls and a glider. I asked if I
21:36
Speaker 5: could do that today to speak, and the Secret Service said, no,
21:40
Speaker 5: we'll have to shoot it down.
21:44
Speaker 2: We'd have to shoot it down. Anybody believe that to
21:47
Speaker 2: be real?
21:48
Speaker 1: It's Joe Biden, right, Everybody's like, oh, it's just Joe
21:51
Speaker 1: being Joe, Just Joe being Joe. At what point are
21:55
Speaker 1: we going to wake up and realize Joe doesn't know
21:56
Speaker 1: what's happening. Joe doesn't know what's going on. Joe is
22:00
Speaker 1: only looking and talking about things that are actually you know,
22:03
Speaker 1: on the piece paper and from him in even that
22:07
Speaker 1: he screws up. Let's talk about a great opportunity for
22:12
Speaker 1: your IRA. In four one ks you can get free
22:15
Speaker 1: gold just by learning about gold iras from Augusta precious medals.
22:20

Speaker 1: crazy economy and your hard earned savings need protecting from

Speaker 1: GOLDRA or Augusta Precious Metals dot com. All right, I
23:10
Speaker 1: want to switch gears to something else that I need
23:13
Speaker 1: you to know about. And I got to give you
23:14
Speaker 1: guys a lot of credit for the success of what
23:17
Speaker 1: we're seeing not just at bud Light, but also at Target.
23:22
Speaker 1: And now we got to add another store to the list,
23:25
Speaker 1: and that is Coals. Target and Coals are apparently facing
23:31
Speaker 1: very very tough backlash from conservatives. The same conservatives have
23:37
Speaker 1: said no to bud Light why for targeting children with
23:41
Speaker 1: lgbt QIA plus activists apparel. It appears that kids' fashion
23:48
Speaker 1: is not the only thing these woke companies are now
23:51
Speaker 1: seeking to change. Conservatives are digging into the spending habits
23:56
Speaker 1: of Coals and Target and have found out that they
23:58
Speaker 1: have both poured significant amounts of money into an organization
24:05
Speaker 1: that pushes gender ideology on children, as well as policies
24:10
Speaker 1: that undermine specifically parental rights. The Gay, Lesbian and Straight
24:17
Speaker 1: Education Network is a New York based organization that promotes
24:21
Speaker 1: gender ideology and sex change acceptance for children as young
24:28
Speaker 1: as kindergarten. They do this from kindergarten through twelfth grade
24:33
Speaker 1: schools throughout the country, transforming teachers into LGBTQ plus doctrinaires.
24:43
Speaker 1: Not only are they giving money to these groups that
24:47
Speaker 1: are then indoctrinating teachers to indoctrinate your children, but they're also,
24:52
Speaker 1: we now know, incorporating gender ideology and pro sex change
24:58
Speaker 1: content into the school's curriculum as a means of raising, quote,
25:03
Speaker 1: the awareness of all students. This is with your kindergarden kids.
25:09
Speaker 1: This is a k kindergarten through twelfth grade initiative that
25:14
Speaker 1: they refer to as a mandate. We now know that
25:18
Speaker 1: Cohle's and Target have been giving money to this group
25:22
Speaker 1: that is pressuring schools to implement activists approved policies, thereby
25:28
Speaker 1: ensuring that all classrooms will accommodate their social constructivists dogmas.
25:36
Speaker 2: And that's not all.
25:37
Speaker 1: This is what they're sitting on their own website and
25:41
Speaker 1: weaponizing student led clubs. In other words, they're turning them
25:45
Speaker 1: into their menions, right, and doctrining these kids and then
25:48
Speaker 1: weaponizing these student led clubs to put pressure on the
25:52
Speaker 1: schools with their campaigns. Now, if you think about this,
25:56
Speaker 1: it's brilliant. Target's got a lot of money. They want
26:00
Speaker 1: to bring in a whole new class of low liberals
26:03
Speaker 1: and transgendered and all this other crap. They then are
26:06
Speaker 1: indoctrining the kids to put pressure on the schools to
26:08
Speaker 1: implement their activists approved policies, thereby ensuring that the classrooms
26:13
Speaker 1: accommodate their social constructive dogmas. Then they take those kids,
26:18
Speaker 1: weaponize those kids to put pressure on the campaigns, therefore
26:23
Speaker 1: then making basically their own economic system, where hey, we
26:28
Speaker 1: create it, then we own it. They shop with us,
26:31
Speaker 1: we win on all accounts. In other words, This is
26:35
Speaker 1: straight up indoctrination. And if you don't believe me, let's
26:38
Speaker 1: just look at this. When it comes to indoctrination, this
26:42
Speaker 1: group that Cohle's and Target is giving money to insists
26:47
Speaker 1: that students of all ages must be given an opportunity
26:51
Speaker 1: to learn that the words gay, lesbian, and transgender are
26:57
Speaker 1: adjectives that should be used with respect all ages kindergarten,
27:03
Speaker 1: and that it is never too early for schools to
27:06
Speaker 1: set up a foundation of understanding and respect for non
27:10
Speaker 1: straight sexual preferences. Quote unquote, So Target and cole, now
27:18
Speaker 1: you understand why Cole's and Target are doing what they're doing.
27:20
Speaker 1: Now you understand why they're giving up millions of feet
27:23
Speaker 1: of fore space to push these ideological viewpoints and to
27:27
Speaker 1: force your toddler into transgenderism or non binary status or
27:32
Speaker 1: whatever the hell they want it to be. We also
27:36
Speaker 1: know that they reported that one of the books in
27:39
Speaker 1: this organization's rainbow library, as they describe it, provided to
27:45
Speaker 1: ideologically compliant schools free of charge, is a title Beyond Magneta.
27:52
Speaker 1: Now this free of charge book that they're giving to
27:55
Speaker 1: your kids' schools. Here's an excerpt from this particular book,
27:59
Speaker 1: which describes a six year old child as quote sexually mature.
28:05
Speaker 2: You ready for this, I was sexually mature.
28:08
Speaker 1: What I mean bi sexually mature is that I knew
28:12
Speaker 1: about sex from six and up. I used to kiss
28:16
Speaker 1: other guys in my neighborhood, make out with them, the
28:19
Speaker 1: book reads, and perform all sex on them.
28:21
Speaker 2: This is a six year old, right, I liked it.
28:24
Speaker 1: I used to love oral, the book reads, I touched there,
28:27
Speaker 1: you know once we were really young.
28:30
Speaker 2: But that's what we did.
28:32
Speaker 1: This is in the book that is supposed to be
28:35
Speaker 1: available in your schools for free for your kindergarten students. Now,
28:41
Speaker 1: in addition to peddling this LGBTQ plus propaganda that sexualizes children, clearly,
28:47
Speaker 1: this organization that calls and target gives to also pushes
28:51
Speaker 1: for elementary school children to quote explore their gender identity
28:57
Speaker 1: and explore their expression. This organization we now know also
29:02
Speaker 1: seeks for gender ideology, they say, to be integrated into
29:08
Speaker 1: all subjects in schools so that they'll be indoctrinated quickly.
29:12
Speaker 2: They include math on the list of.
29:15
Speaker 1: Things that gender ideology should be implemented in the classroom,
29:19
Speaker 1: including the subject of math. Now, in addition to sowing confusion,
29:24
Speaker 1: because that's what you do with kids if you want
29:26
Speaker 1: to indoctrinate them. The organization also insists on keeping kids
29:31
Speaker 1: primary sources of clarity in the dark. In the guide
29:36
Speaker 1: to the Glseen guide from twenty twenty two, in which
29:40
Speaker 1: the organization stress the importance of teachers quote hiding information
29:46
Speaker 1: about a student so called gender identity from their parents
29:50
Speaker 1: and guardians.
29:52
Speaker 2: In their own.
29:53
Speaker 1: Guidebook, it says this the fact that a student chooses
29:57
Speaker 1: to use a different name to transition at school, or
30:02
Speaker 1: to disclose their gender identity to staff, educators, or other students,
30:09
Speaker 1: does not authorize school staff to disclose a student's personally
30:14
Speaker 1: identifiable or medical information to anyone, including parents. According to
30:21
Speaker 1: Parents Defending Education, they say, the fact that this organization
30:26
Speaker 1: uses a use safety message to achieve their political goals
30:30
Speaker 1: is not just wrong, it's disgusting and it should be
30:32
Speaker 1: illegal now. The executive director of this group said in
30:37
Speaker 1: a January twenty twenty two interview that quote LGBTQ plus
30:43
Speaker 1: young people in schools and their student groups like GSAs
30:50
Speaker 1: have always been the hub, kind of the breeding ground.
30:53
Speaker 1: This is her words, the soil she says, from which
30:58
Speaker 1: these sparks of activism come up, adding we are understanding
31:04
Speaker 1: it is that young people period are going to help
31:07
Speaker 1: us understand the vision forward and the way forward to
31:10
Speaker 1: the future. Now Cohle's and Target, it's clear are paying
31:14
Speaker 1: to undermine your printal rights and they want it to
31:19
Speaker 1: become the norm that you have no say so. Target
31:22
Speaker 1: recently called out for pedaling LGBT onesies for babies, their
31:27
Speaker 1: tuck friendly bathing suits or drag queen books for kids,
31:30
Speaker 1: and satanic drawings from one of their artists that were
31:36
Speaker 1: designing their clothes. Have long partnered with this other group.
31:41
Speaker 1: The company states on its corporate DEI page, We're proud
31:46
Speaker 1: to partner with GOLSN for more than a decade, working
31:50
Speaker 1: to ensure that all students have a safe place to learn.
31:54
Speaker 1: Target annually supports GOLSN and its mission to create a firm,
32:00
Speaker 1: accessible and anti racist spaces for LGBTQIA plus students.
32:07
Speaker 2: This is on their own website.
32:11
Speaker 1: Target we now know has donated at least two point
32:14
Speaker 1: one million to this indoctrination.
32:17
Speaker 2: Group of your Child.
32:19
Speaker 1: Coals, which has over one thoy one hundred stores in
32:23
Speaker 1: forty nine states, announced in December that it had doled
32:27
Speaker 1: out more than five million dollars to various groups. Among
32:30
Speaker 1: these groups was Glessen, which Coals awarded a thirty five
32:36
Speaker 1: thousand dollars new grant. The company indicator that these funds
32:40
Speaker 1: would go towards the organization's Education Youth Services Initiative, which
32:45
Speaker 1: produced research based tools that enhance educators in students' capacity
32:50
Speaker 1: to create the kinds of respectful, affirming and LGBTQIA plus
32:56
Speaker 1: inclusive classrooms and schools at every child deserves quote unquote
33:03
Speaker 1: Cole's by the way, underscores and it's twenty twenty two
33:06
Speaker 1: ESG report that it is in the business of looke evangelism. Yes,
33:12
Speaker 1: their words, stating we believe in embedding DEI into everything
33:18
Speaker 1: we do requires an ongoing journey of listening, learning, and
33:23
Speaker 1: taking action. Now, you may not know what DEI actually is.
33:29
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people that don't understand it. They're
33:32
Speaker 1: gonna say there's nothing wrong with it because it's diversity,
33:34
Speaker 1: equity and inclusion.
33:36
Speaker 2: In translation, it's.
33:37
Speaker 1: Straight up propaganda for lgbt QIA, propaganda with your kids.
33:43
Speaker 1: There's even now Chick fil A. Chick fil A has
33:49
Speaker 1: now sparked an anti woke outrage for the VP of Diversity,
33:53
Speaker 1: Equity Inclusion and a post that they made. Now, I'm
33:56
Speaker 1: telling you about this because there's a lot of people
33:58
Speaker 1: talking about Chick fil A making posts about them, and
34:01
Speaker 1: I just want you to know what's going on there.
34:05
Speaker 1: Chick fil A has been a long beloved brand of
34:09
Speaker 1: Christians of conservatives for its long standing opposition to same
34:13
Speaker 1: sex marriage. They also are closed on Sundays. They've been
34:17
Speaker 1: very proud of being a Christian business. Well now people
34:20
Speaker 1: are calling for boycotts after announcing that had hired an
34:24
Speaker 1: executive in charge of diversity, equity and inclusion. The Atlanta
34:28
Speaker 1: based company named Eric McReynolds to the post a vice
34:32
Speaker 1: president of DEI two years ago, but social media users
34:36
Speaker 1: took note of it in recent days, igniting angry, angry
34:41
Speaker 1: conservatives on Twitter who are saying that the firm has
34:45
Speaker 1: quote gone woke.
34:47
Speaker 2: Now.
34:48
Speaker 1: McReynolds has been an employee by employee of Chick fil
34:51
Speaker 1: A since two thousand and seven. He was promoted the
34:53
Speaker 1: position of vice president of DEI in November of twenty
34:56
Speaker 1: twenty one. But the recent lgbtwo Q controversies involving brands
35:01
Speaker 1: like bud Light, Target and Coles have triggered scrutiny at
35:04
Speaker 1: other corporate actors. Corporate America, which is embraced EI, which
35:10
Speaker 1: seeks to diversify workforces, has been criticized by concerts who
35:14
Speaker 1: claim that it's nothing more than discrimination based on race
35:18
Speaker 1: and gender. This is bad, very bad. I don't want
35:21
Speaker 1: to have to boycott. Are we going to have to boycott?
35:24
Speaker 1: Question marks? A consertative strategy? Consertative strategists to the New
35:28
Speaker 1: York Posts. Then they post an informal poll and guess what.
35:34
Speaker 1: A little more than forty seven percent of responds vote
35:37
Speaker 1: in favor of boycott, while the other half fifty two
35:39
Speaker 1: point four percent said no on this Twitter poll.
35:42
Speaker 2: Now, let me be clear about this.
35:44
Speaker 1: The man that everyone's freaking about right now has been
35:48
Speaker 1: in this position now for several years. If Chick fil
35:52
Speaker 1: A was doing things that are as woke as what's
35:55
Speaker 1: happening at Target and Coals, then people would be freaking out.
35:59
Speaker 1: But I do want to be careful that we don't
36:01
Speaker 1: overstep here and make controversies out of nothing. This individual
36:06
Speaker 1: at Chick fil A, based on what we know, hasn't
36:10
Speaker 1: done anything crazy over the last several years.
36:13
Speaker 2: While he's been in this position.
36:16
Speaker 1: Does that mean that he's a terrible person because he
36:18
Speaker 1: has the same title as some others who've done terrible things.
36:21
Speaker 1: Of course not. My point is keep your eye on
36:24
Speaker 1: the ball, folks. Let's not start wars for no reason.
36:28
Speaker 1: Let's not allow people and there's some people that are
36:31
Speaker 1: just doing these things to get famous, to get clickbait,
36:33
Speaker 1: to get retweets. I've had people call I've had actually
36:36
Speaker 1: people call me on from the media saying I want
36:38
Speaker 1: to get your thoughts on what's happening now with Chick
36:41
Speaker 1: fil A, and I say I have nothing to say,
36:43
Speaker 1: no comment because at this point there doesn't seem to
36:47
Speaker 1: be anything there that's anything close to what's been happening
36:51
Speaker 1: with these other companies. So let's not act like somehow
36:56
Speaker 1: this is the worst thing that's ever happened. Now back
37:01
Speaker 1: to the other thing with Coles here, what I know
37:03
Speaker 1: is this the corporate leadership behind Coals and what is
37:08
Speaker 1: behind the leadership at Target is this. They are interested
37:12
Speaker 1: in selling a lifestyle to your children. They are in
37:17
Speaker 1: favor of embracing things and organizations and groups that try
37:23
Speaker 1: to change your child's gender and don't tell you about it.
37:26
Speaker 1: One of the company stated goals is to commit twenty
37:29
Speaker 1: million dollars, they say, to diverse in communities, they say,
37:32
Speaker 1: including members of the so called lgbtqia community, noting that
37:36
Speaker 1: it had already committed roughly eight million of a goal
37:39
Speaker 1: of twenty million just last year alone. These two companies
37:44
Speaker 1: appear to have been rewarded for their marketing, an advocacy
37:51
Speaker 1: of the LGBTQ activist gear, and financial support of gender
37:55
Speaker 1: ideologies and schools. Forbes know that Coles was ranked as
37:59
