The conservative review with Daniel Burns

0:09

and welcome back fellow American patriots

0:11

and Minutemen standing at the ready to

0:14

fight anew for our life liberty

0:16

Property everything that matters and

0:19

to see it through to the end. This

0:21

is the only source of conservative independent

0:25

news and views

0:27

Independent of the grift independent of

0:29

groupthink We

0:31

just called it as it is truth

0:33

and justice, but we don't just call it we actually

0:36

drive for outcomes and

0:38

As a follow-up of yesterday's

0:41

pretty fiery show if you haven't heard it's

0:43

worth your time I wanted to get more

0:45

into policy today, which we always

0:47

strive for but to seamlessly

0:50

tie in yesterday's show about where we

0:52

are and how the Trump versus DeSantis

0:54

thing is Reflective of something larger

0:57

that Reverberated

1:00

long before the two of them and will continue

1:02

past that if we don't change the

1:05

arc

1:06

of the trajectory grifting

1:08

versus governance

1:11

That is our choice. That is our choice

1:13

every day

1:15

Especially as God gives us this opportunity

1:18

with the overreach of the left

1:21

and a Reawakening of things being

1:23

wrong. We're exposing exposing.

1:26

This is happening. That's happening. But

1:28

now what are you gonna do?

1:30

Are you gonna grift off the exposure

1:32

of but the left? But

1:35

not have your own affirmative path

1:37

of truth to strive for and achieve

1:41

Or will you actually? neutralize

1:43

the threat

1:45

by implementing Structurally where

1:47

you can? identifying the problem

1:50

articulating it and where you have the

1:52

ability to As

1:55

much as you can make permanent

1:57

structural changes to life policy,

2:00

society, and culture

2:02

in a way that will actually save us

2:04

from all the things we say are going to

2:07

kill us and our children and our economy and our

2:09

society if we actually believe

2:11

in what we mean and what we say,

2:13

this

2:14

is what we do.

2:16

Deuteronomy 30,

2:18

19, this day I call upon the heaven and the

2:20

earth as witnesses.

2:23

I have set before you life and death,

2:25

the blessing and the curse.

2:27

You shall choose life so that you and your offspring

2:30

will live. It's that simple.

2:32

It's that simple.

2:34

We have the opportunity like never before to

2:38

govern. And I don't mean, see the

2:40

other side tries to make it like a nerdy term

2:43

like, oh yeah, you're not a fighter. You

2:45

just want to go. No, we're not talking about

2:47

the technocratic way. We're

2:49

talking about actually

2:53

using the power that you supposedly

2:55

have and the sphere of influence you

2:58

have where it should be a majority position

3:01

and make permanent changes

3:04

so that certainly we stop the

3:06

bad things and the illegals

3:08

and the crime and the green grift

3:10

and the biomedical security state and the training

3:12

stuff and all that,

3:14

but actually go a step further

3:16

and structurally preclude that

3:18

stuff from happening again. That we have a governance

3:21

model in accordance

3:23

with a biblical worldview

3:25

and liberty.

3:29

That's what we should have. That's that's what governing

3:31

is. So today we're going to go back and forth

3:33

and give examples of what we need

3:35

to be doing exactly at this juncture, tying

3:37

in some of the news today

3:40

to grifting,

3:42

which is simply the ricochet

3:45

of expose. The left's doing

3:47

this. Okay. There's

3:50

nothing wrong inherently

3:51

with exposing and complaining about

3:54

the left,

3:55

but here's where it is wrong. Where

3:58

it is wrong is when

3:59

you have no core

4:02

yourself, that

4:05

you will utilize that moment of

4:07

exposure of the left to drive towards

4:11

that will cause you to then

4:14

satiate your natural desires

4:17

for accomplishment off

4:19

of simple making

4:21

a living off of complaining

4:23

about the left, and

4:26

then therefore that becomes your

4:28

endgame. And therefore you

4:31

begin accepting things that

4:33

as you claim

4:35

to expose falseness

4:38

and injustice on the left, you yourself

4:40

will also promote

4:43

falseness and injustice albeit at

4:45

differing levels because

4:48

at least I'm exposing the left and I'm not the left.

4:52

That's what grift is. And

4:54

that's a slippery scale

4:57

of being just, oh we're

4:59

complaining about them without a plan. You know what this

5:01

reminds me of everyone who says that Trump

5:03

has

5:04

exposed the left. And

5:07

it's true in a sense, but

5:09

it's also true that

5:11

if you don't have a plan to deal with it, you're actually

5:13

worse off than you were even before.

5:16

It's like, let me give you an

5:18

analogy here. You have

5:20

a couple of bees that start getting

5:22

into your house. First it's one or two, then

5:24

it's three or four, like, man, what's going on here?

5:27

And it's bothering you, bothering

5:30

the kids. And then you finally go outside

5:32

and you find one place under the downspout

5:36

near the brick of the house

5:38

where they could kind of bore holes. You

5:40

find a massive

5:41

bee's nest and you uncover it. You

5:44

exposed it, you found it, you revealed

5:46

it.

5:47

Well, that's great.

5:49

But now

5:51

rather than three or four bees,

5:53

you have 500 very angry bees

5:56

coming right at you and you did

5:59

not put on.

8:00

Now, ask yourself a question.

8:03

Should anything have changed from these voters

8:05

that understood that DeSantis is so much

8:08

better at implementing everything

8:10

you want

8:12

before or after just because he is indicted? No.

8:15

But we have a base that has been

8:17

acculturated

8:18

by a leadership

8:22

that has no ideological core

8:25

and not just abstract principle, but also

8:28

practically what they want to achieve

8:30

and how and where they want to achieve it.

8:33

So they define everything by the victimhood

8:36

of, oh, but the left, but the left, right? Everything is the

8:38

grift. But

8:41

the left. So he's

8:43

the biggest, but the left. Now, obviously, ironically,

8:45

they're playing into the left.

8:48

See, a lot of people are like, well, Daniel, how do you know that

8:50

they're trying to get him the nomination? Maybe it's the

8:52

opposite that they're going after him so much because

8:54

they're really scared of him. They're

8:56

really scared of him. Well,

9:00

the proof is in the pudding.

9:03

If they if the left didn't know that it would cause

9:05

this the first time, certainly now that we're

9:07

on indictment number three,

9:09

they do know this, that it is dramatically

9:12

improving his standing. So if

9:14

they meant to knock him out of the race, if

9:17

that was their original motivation, they clearly wouldn't

9:19

have continued down this path. It is a lot

9:21

more likely that they know it will

9:23

endear him to the base and will get him

9:25

to win the nomination, which is exactly

9:27

what they want because we all know who

9:30

they are really scared of. And it's not just

9:32

who they're scared of, but a movement

9:34

that that win could possibly spawn,

9:36

which is one of effective ruthless

9:39

governance rather than distracting grift

9:42

while the left just keeps running up the score

9:44

on the actual field.

9:46

We're out there hanging out with the cheerleaders enjoying

9:48

the hot dogs at the concession stand,

9:51

but they're on the field and doing their thing. They

9:54

want to continue that. They don't want an

9:56

aggressive team on the field to counter them.

9:59

In the original, of outcomes they don't

10:01

want that

10:02

and that's why they're continuing. And

10:05

to be fair to Trump the more

10:07

I think about it

10:09

I don't think see until now

10:11

you might have gotten the impression and I maybe kind of said this

10:13

that

10:14

Trump is distracting our people he's he's

10:16

dumbing our people down he's getting

10:18

our people accepting of liberal ideas

10:20

like like Bruce Jenner and whatever and the

10:22

COVID shots

10:24

and we can never build a movement

10:26

until we get rid of him

10:28

to be fair I

10:30

think it's really more accurate that Trump

10:32

is a reflection of the

10:35

ideologically rudderless conservative

10:38

movement leadership

10:40

rather than a

10:41

causation.

10:44

I really think that

10:45

because honestly it was like that before too

10:48

it's not like I mean how do you have

10:50

for years after years

10:52

the left being able to pick our nominees?

10:55

Romney and McCain all these people and then up

10:57

and down the ballot senators governors red

10:59

states how do you have mask

11:02

mandates for months on end in deep red

11:04

counties within deep red states how

11:06

do you have the green grift to this day going on

11:08

and Kristi Noem doing her thing with the land grant

11:11

and all this other stuff how do you have that

11:13

it's because we're busy focusing

11:15

on but the Democrats

11:18

while in our own spheres of

11:20

influence with three to one five to

11:22

one super majorities we're

11:25

we're not only not doing affirmatively

11:27

positive things

11:29

but we're actually excelling in

11:31

the case of green energy I mean more in the red

11:33

states than the blue states

11:36

and this is continuing

11:37

so to be fair as I

11:40

said in 2016 when Trump came on this

11:42

all predated him I mean it puts more of a flare

11:44

on it I think he's more endearing obviously than

11:47

a George W Bush or whatever and

11:49

it will continue after him if

11:52

we don't change the course and

11:54

change our focus

11:58

only a group of people with

11:59

no ideological core can

12:02

be taken in by this. And it's like, we

12:05

keep like pulling our hair out. How are we

12:07

okay with the Bruce Jenner stuff? How

12:09

are we okay with what he said about the

12:12

heartbeat bill? With what they said about the Bud

12:14

Light boycott?

12:15

With what he said about Disney? With what he said about the vaccine?

12:18

How are we okay with that? How

12:21

are we okay with the First Step Act? We're okay

12:23

with it because we're okay with all the

12:25

liberal governance in every other state and

12:28

federally that we've been dealing with for

12:30

my entire life.

12:32

Because there is no ideological

12:35

core other than

12:37

look at the Democrats. That

12:39

is the central critique of

12:41

where we are. Why conservatives

12:43

don't have an ideological core, we could debate that, we could

12:45

talk about that.

12:47

But

12:49

a lot of that has to do with the fact that there's no free money,

12:51

so you need a meal ticket. And

12:53

so you'll never be able to be intrepid in

12:55

fighting for a cause, cause inevitably you're

12:57

gonna have to tether your views

12:59

to where you're getting your money from. There's

13:02

several other reasons as well. I believe

13:04

the left has their A-team in

13:06

the public sector. We have our smarter people

13:08

in the private sector.

13:10

And frankly, a lot of the people that get

13:12

involved in this business just have low IQ,

13:14

I'm sorry. I just don't know how to say it better.

13:17

Both the elected so-called conservatives

13:19

and then the shock jocks, they're just dumb

13:22

as hell.

13:23

So they don't even realize.

13:25

Again, they're dumber than John Federman because

13:27

John Federman never once scored

13:29

points for the opposing team. Our guys do

13:31

that every day. But

13:34

the biggest governance I wanna get to is

13:37

the budget bill and I wanna tie in the budget

13:41

to

13:42

the fact that this is much greater

13:44

than a presidential election. It's much more imminent

13:46

and urgent than waiting until January, 2025. And

13:50

it will tie in the Trump indictment as

13:52

well. First, we are sponsored very appropriately

13:54

as we talk about the budget and the debt,

13:57

birch gold. Look,

13:59

central banks.

13:59

are already divesting

14:02

from the bank, from the US

14:04

dollar as official currency,

14:06

they're moving on to digital currency. So

14:08

you're going to want a tangible asset. You

14:11

also have inflation.

14:12

The bottom line is, and I'm going to write about

14:14

this more, but we are in a trap

14:17

where the only way prices will ever

14:19

come down is a massive recession,

14:22

which there are signs

14:24

roughly quarter two of 2020, 24 is

14:27

when it will come. But

14:29

anyway, that's why I recommend Birch Gold.

14:31

If you text Daniel to 9, 8, 9, 8, 9, 8, they'll

14:34

send you a free info kit on gold.

14:37

And that is a way you could put your IRA,

14:39

your 401k into something of value

14:41

without funding the woke nonsense,

14:44

which is not even going to give you a good rate of return anymore.

14:46

With an A plus rating from the Better Business Bureau, thousands

14:49

of happy customers, countless five star reviews. Birch

14:51

Gold has been helping my listeners for

14:54

months now. And, you know,

14:56

I myself now have an account. So again,

14:58

text Daniel to 9, 8, 9, 8, 9, 8, claim your free info

15:01

kit because central bank

15:03

digital currency might become a reality.

15:06

It would sure be nice to have something tangible

15:08

to depend upon.

15:10

So

15:11

here's what governance looks like.

15:13

Governance looks like if

15:16

we had an entire movement of the top 50 voices,

15:19

writing a letter to Kevin McCarthy and

15:21

saying, Kevin,

15:23

here's the deal.

15:25

You have 12 appropriation bills

15:27

that fund every aspect of government.

15:29

It's not just a budget figure. We need to severely

15:31

cut spending.

15:33

But more than that, we need to address

15:35

every agency of every department, every

15:38

policy,

15:39

and not just to kind of do like a quick,

15:41

you know, hundred

15:42

amendment vote in the middle of the

15:44

midnight when no one's paying attention, but

15:46

to drag it out and do it out in the open

15:49

and message and change hearts and

15:51

minds

15:52

on the issues of our time. Educate

15:55

people on January 6th, educate

15:57

them on the weaponization of government.

15:59

Obviously the biomedical security state,

16:02

right? And what you would do is we

16:04

talked about we have the budget bills We have the

16:07

FAA authorization. We have the NDAA we

16:09

have pandemic and hazard

16:12

preparedness reauthorization we have the farm bill

16:15

Announce that

16:15

we are serious about governing and

16:18

we're gonna cancel the August recess or most

16:20

of it. Maybe give them off a week

16:23

but not six weeks or five

16:27

five to six weeks

16:28

cancel it

16:29

and every day have a policy

16:33

and communications plan and

16:35

You divide up your conference. I know you're gonna laugh

16:37

like but a man could dream. I

16:40

gotta lay in front of you

16:42

The good and the life as we face death and

16:44

evil.

16:45

I have laid before you good and bad So

16:47

I'm gonna lay before you this is

16:49

very achievable if we had a sane movement and party

16:53

and you divide up your conference between

16:56

different expertise different committees and

17:00

Each day you take up another appropriation bill

17:02

HHS. So we're gonna have our health care people

17:05

Every day bang away at the lack

17:07

of informed consent and the Joseph Mengele

17:09

stuff going on with the vaccines and promoting

17:11

them on pregnant Women and all this stuff boom

17:13

boom boom and now we're gonna defund it done

17:17

and you have obviously DOJ Procreation

17:20

bill boom boom boom boom boom go through

17:23

it go through it

17:24

Explain to people juxtapose

17:26

what they did to the j6 errs versus BLM

17:30

all the data We have all the narratives we have

17:32

go through it and with

17:34

that by the way Defund

17:37

the prosecution of Trump as well.

17:40

I mean, it doesn't help with the Alvin Bragg thing, but that's a

17:42

joke anyway

17:44

but the Florida

17:46

one and

17:47

The DC one with January 6 defund

17:49

it

17:50

Prohibit funding but also not just about

17:52

Trump.

17:53

It's gotta be about all of us About

17:56

the and by the way, I just want to make

17:58

make the point here for those are

17:59

why they're going after Trump

18:02

if they don't perceive him as a threat.

18:04

Again, they want him to win the primary, but it's also,

18:07

it's more dynamic than that too. They

18:09

want to, it's a message to all of us.

18:12

They want to criminalize our beliefs. So

18:14

they're taking, you know, whether you like it or not,

18:16

and I don't like it, but he is the biggest idol and

18:18

reflection of the right. So that's

18:21

what they're going to go after. You know,

18:24

they'll go after the next person too.

18:27

So you defund

18:29

that. And then you

18:31

come into September

18:34

and while Biden is in Delaware

18:36

doing his thing and the Senate Democrats are

18:39

out for six weeks, you're showing

18:41

that you are cutting spending every day. You message

18:44

about inflation. See

18:47

the debt used to be a joke. Everyone

18:49

would say the debt is too high, but no one cared because

18:51

it was just a number on paper. But now it's

18:53

on Covid change that we

18:56

spent $9 trillion.

18:59

No, no, sorry. We spent a lot more. We accrued 9

19:02

trillion in deficits since

19:05

Covid. That's insane. And 40

19:07

months, 9 trillion.

19:10

It took until like our founding until

19:12

I want

19:14

to say 2009 or so to

19:16

accrue that much.

19:19

And that's what we did in three years. 9 trillion.

19:23

The people feel that.

19:25

Do you know that last month in

19:27

June,

19:29

we are now at an annualized

19:31

rate.

19:32

If you look at the monthly just interest

19:35

on the debt, because

19:37

the interest rates now and the sheer size of

19:39

the debt, $900

19:40

billion,

19:44

meaning it surpassed the military. Government

19:48

spending grew by 15 percent last

19:51

month, 646

19:52

billion,

19:53

but revenues plummeted

19:56

down 9.8 percent.

20:00

Overall, $823 billion

20:03

in new debt was issued just in the month

20:05

of June,

20:06

about $1.1 trillion since the debt ceiling

20:08

was increased.

20:12

And

20:14

that's insane because officially unemployment

20:16

is very low.

20:18

Meaning that is the

20:21

most debt we've ever accrued in a month

20:23

in history, aside from April 2020,

20:26

which was the effect of

20:28

the CARES Act

20:31

and the COVID, you know, Fourth Reich stuff.

20:34

Aside from that, a random June

20:36

of this year when, you know, the

20:38

economy's not great, but it's

20:40

not a recession or a depression or a shutdown.

20:43

That is insane. It's

20:46

not hard to message this. So

20:50

what's happening is all that new debt,

20:53

that trillion dollars is all at 5.1, 5.2% servicing

20:59

rather than 1.5%, like it was, you know, one to two

21:01

years ago. And

21:04

all the, now you

21:07

have 32.5 trillion in debt that

21:09

the old debt is constantly going to mature,

21:12

but mature and be refinanced

21:14

now at

21:15

triple the rate.

21:19

And the rates are going to have to be

21:21

that high indefinitely,

21:23

unless there's a crash,

21:25

which will be even worse. So

21:28

interest on the debt itself. See

21:31

we used to warn about this, but no one cared. But now

21:35

it is the third most expensive

21:38

expenditure of all of government.

21:41

There's

21:42

HHS is the highest. That's because

21:44

Medicare and Medicaid, because healthcare is retarded

21:47

and no one wants to broach that.

21:50

And then number two is social security. And

21:53

then interest on debt is just below it. So

21:55

social security, we spent 131.

21:59

billion in the month of June. 131

22:03

billion.

22:05

Interest on the debt was 122.5, just below it.

22:09

Do

22:09

you know what the military was? DoD? 74 billion, 800

22:12

million. So

22:13

significantly,

22:20

almost like a third more than the military.

22:23

We spent on nothing more than

22:25

interest on debt. Did you know that every year we

22:27

have tax freedom day? It's usually like April, so

22:31

it takes from January 1st until April 18th

22:33

for the average person

22:35

to

22:36

pay off their tax liability and begin earning 100%

22:39

profit.

22:40

If you account for it that way.

22:43

So, you know,

22:45

a full more than a quarter of a year.

22:48

You're now working for

22:51

nothing more

22:53

than paying interest on the debt.

22:57

Put another way,

22:58

in the month of June, we

23:00

spent more money on interest on the debt

23:04

than commerce, education, energy, homeland

23:06

security, HUD, interior, justice,

23:09

labor, state, transportation, and veterans

23:11

affairs, which is very expensive.

23:13

And mind you, none of us think that those bureaucracies

23:15

are cheap.

23:18

It is utterly insane.

23:22

That is why we are

23:24

at a permanent, vicious trap

23:28

of high interest rate, high

23:31

debt,

23:32

high interest on the debt, reinforcing

23:35

each other,

23:36

then

23:37

insane inflation, because you have to print

23:39

the money to service it. So then you have the inflation.

23:44

And then the cost of living is so bad that

23:46

even though we're not in an official recession

23:48

yet,

23:50

but it's dampening tax revenues,

23:54

right? Because your margins are smaller. So

23:57

that's what's happening now. It's

23:59

a double.

23:59

whammy and the two get reinforced.

24:02

The more debt we have, the more the more

24:04

outlays the government's

24:06

gonna have and the less

24:08

revenue they're gonna have.

24:09

Nothing to do with taxes, with tax

24:12

policy.

24:13

The debt is actually now working

24:16

both sides. So relative to last

24:18

June, spending was up 15%,

24:21

revenue was down 9.8%.

24:23

And Biden will tell you the employment's grade

24:26

and this and that. This

24:29

is the message Kevin McCarthy needs. It

24:33

was just yesterday,

24:35

when I was writing columns, you

24:37

know, like all of us,

24:39

that Republicans lost the 2006 election

24:42

to Nancy Pelosi took over for the first time

24:44

in 12 years, they lost the House

24:47

because of the spending and Republicans

24:49

spent

24:50

worse than the Democrats.

24:53

That era that we said, you know,

24:56

the line that Republicans spend like drunken sailors

24:58

mainly came from that era. That

25:01

was when debt was 61% of GDP. Now it's 123%.

25:08

So we

25:09

are at a point where

25:11

it's a vicious, vicious cycle that they

25:14

can't get around.

25:17

18% of all our spending is

25:19

just interest on the debt. And

25:21

that number is obviously gonna grow exponentially

25:23

in the coming months and certainly years. McCarthy could

25:25

stain before

25:30

the people and say, directly

25:32

tie this to cost of living because

25:35

there was a long period of time in the

25:37

nine in the in the in the 2000s. It was just like, we knew

25:39

it would happen. But the

25:45

interest payments were low and inflation

25:47

was low. So people didn't care. They didn't care about it. Even

25:50

if they would say they care about in the

25:52

poll, but they didn't really care about it. Now it's a different

25:54

ballgame. And that's just the

25:56

spending.

25:58

But

26:00

then you message each of the policies

26:05

and then obviously getting

26:07

to Trump himself

26:09

the persecution the prosecution

26:12

Why is it that Trump has

26:15

never called upon Kevin McCarthy?

26:18

To defund the prosecution

26:21

in the

26:22

Justice appropriation bill it's called commerce

26:24

justice science So it funds the

26:27

Commerce Department just apartment and then like National

26:29

Science Foundation a couple other related loose

26:32

agencies

26:35

Maybe Nassau's thrown in there. I'm

26:37

not I'm not 100% sure but anyway, that's

26:39

a probe spill but beat as a may

26:43

So how come Trump never called upon how

26:45

come his all them? You know Maga

26:48

leaders all the people that spoke at toilet paper

26:50

USA. How come they never talk

26:52

about that? I mean, this is

26:54

the worst thing around we can't live But

26:57

their answer is vote for mr. Tomp. But

27:00

again putting aside whether mr. Tomp could win

27:03

But he won't be present till January 20 2025

27:08

Like that's not gonna help him. He'll

27:10

be in jail by then by a long shot.

27:12

I mean everyone agrees to that

27:15

so If that is

27:17

really a problem if this is really

27:19

about Justice and

27:21

truth and and and not just Trump but all of us

27:25

Why is everything just Trump Trump Trump Trump Trump

27:27

is an end to itself to make sure he gets the nomination and

27:30

not We better have a defund

27:33

fight, but let's do it in an articulate fashion

27:35

And I think canceling the August recess

27:37

and having a whole you know, every day you have

27:39

a press conference on another point of it How

27:43

come no, they're not calling for that. The answer

27:45

is because one is governance and one

27:47

is grift To just say see

27:50

they don't care because they know I don't

27:52

think they fear Trump ultimately losing his

27:54

life He might be under

27:57

house arrest at Mar-a-Lago, but he'll enjoy his

27:59

life Unlike his supporters who will

28:01

rot in jail. But

28:04

it's all about the grift. Their

28:07

future is tethered to him and they can't be

28:09

viewed as alienating him. You

28:12

see Tucker's new

28:14

network, it's going to be partnering with Don Junior's

28:16

company.

28:17

I mean, everyone sees that

28:20

a switch was flipped with him and he just. Just

28:24

totally, totally went nuts. And

28:26

by the way, I just want to point out. And

28:29

I know I'm all over the place

28:31

today, but we'll, we'll get through this. We'll

28:33

finish the point. Tucker

28:35

is the one who goaded Trump

28:38

into more draconian lockdowns. You know that Tucker complained

28:40

that Trump wasn't taking COVID seriously enough.

28:46

And,

28:49

and look, I, I

28:50

felt it was serious, but in a very different way. I was like, it's a bio weapon

28:52

and you need treatment for it. But this stuff is stupid.

28:55

Tucker did it

28:57

in a low IQ way and just gave into the Democrat

28:59

fear. I mean, he's

29:00

this big hero on COVID, but I'm just going to tell you, he

29:02

did not arrive to our position. And I

29:05

don't just mean like a month or two later is way

29:07

later. He,

29:09

he, he slowly, it was gradual. I mean,

29:12

he slowly dipped his toe in, but, but he, someone, one

29:15

could argue that he is the

29:17

single most influential

29:19

force. That, that got Trump

29:22

like all in on it.

29:23

One could argue that somehow that seems to have gotten

29:26

pigeonholed

29:27

and we're

29:30

supposed to forget that that is a big deal

29:33

and no one has a good answer for that. But

29:36

he's God. I'm a nobody, you know, he, he has done so

29:38

much for us. I

29:40

mean, we

29:41

couldn't live

29:42

without MIT, the talker, it's a twomp and MIT, the talker. Okay.

29:46

But anyway, why isn't Tucker calling

29:48

for that?

29:50

Can you imagine the pressure? If Tucker

29:52

would have just said what I said, cancel the August

29:54

recess, make a massive.

29:59

defund fight

30:00

and I just want to explain

30:03

why I mean cancel the August recess. Let

30:05

me just

30:05

kind of explain what I mean by governance.

30:08

To be fair right now, Republicans

30:12

legitimately are passing relatively

30:16

decent appropriation bills out of the Appropriations

30:18

Committee.

30:21

Some of them even do have spending levels

30:24

below the debt ceiling deal, and they

30:26

do have not all but a number

30:28

of the provisions that you and I would want. Now

30:31

notably they're not going to defund Ukraine,

30:33

they're not going to defund the vaccines, they'll defund

30:36

the mandates which they're doing.

30:39

But you know there are good provisions like for example

30:41

in the State Department Appropriations

30:44

Bill, it's called State and Foreign Operations, they

30:46

do legitimately defund

30:49

the WHO. But

30:52

here's the problem. There's several issues.

30:54

Number one, we could do what we could do and need to

30:56

do a lot better. I mean the spending

30:58

cuts need to be much deeper

31:00

and the policies need to be better.

31:02

Number two, there's no

31:04

confidence they're going to stand behind them

31:07

because what they're doing is they're just quickly

31:09

just getting it off because they have so few days left

31:12

before not just August recess, but

31:14

even October 1st given all the time

31:16

they have off. So they're not messaging

31:19

it properly. It's like even good amendments

31:21

that get passed, part of it is to message

31:23

it because a government shutdown

31:25

brinkmanship is a PR war. They're

31:28

doing it very quickly. Then also

31:31

they have a lot of problems

31:33

because the conservatives want one thing, the rhinos want another

31:36

thing. So like they're starting

31:38

off, they're bringing to the floor this week, transportation

31:41

HUD and Milcon, military

31:44

construction. And those are viewed as

31:46

less controversial within the conference, they'll get

31:48

passed. But a lot of them, they're going to be at loggerheads.

31:51

They need to work this out and do

31:54

it in a way. You got to take off

31:56

the August recess. That's my opinion. If

31:58

you are very serious about doing this, right. Otherwise,

32:01

it's not gonna get fully done. And

32:05

by the way, let me just give you an example of

32:07

some of the problems. So some of the bills are good, some

32:09

of them are bad. So transportation HUD, the

32:12

transportation part of it

32:14

is actually pretty

32:16

good.

32:17

Pretty deep cuts and they defund some of the global

32:19

warming stuff with infrastructure, transportation.

32:22

I haven't gone through all of it, but

32:24

the HUD part is terrible. What

32:26

they're using is these recisions, they're

32:29

rescinding money that hasn't been spent in

32:31

order to plus up what should

32:34

be cuts to certain departments, but

32:37

then they take away the cuts. So HUD

32:40

basically has the same record

32:42

high spending. Their

32:44

draft would provide $68.2 billion

32:46

to HUD,

32:50

essentially preserving the record high baseline

32:53

for a department that should never exist.

32:58

I want you to understand where we are.

33:00

HUD

33:01

spending was as low as $38 billion,

33:04

almost a half,

33:06

in FY 2017, Obama's

33:08

final year. Remember like Obama with

33:10

Freddie and Fannie and where that was like a big

33:12

part of his admin, like the crazy HUD

33:14

spending? Even

33:16

adjusted for inflation, that's $49 billion. Okay,

33:23

that's insane

33:24

that Republicans are okay with that level

33:26

of spending. Record $31

33:29

billion on Section 8.

33:32

Six percent increase from last

33:34

year's spending.

33:37

Section 8 is a tool for social transformation,

33:39

increased crime, reducing property values, promotion

33:42

of implementing the left wing's gerrymandering of the suburbs.

33:46

And also, it's just literally a get out the vote

33:48

effort. A lot of the private

33:51

vendors that get HUD funding literally

33:56

fund Democrat victories in

33:59

two ways. Number one, one they they strategically

34:01

get Democrat

34:04

constituencies into swing

34:06

counties all through

34:08

HUD funding he's

34:10

like unidos USA is one of those

34:12

organizations

34:14

and then

34:16

just

34:19

in general those

34:21

organizations get a bunch of free cash

34:23

that they use for get out the vote efforts so

34:27

these are the type of things that need to be sorted out this

34:29

is what governance looks like

34:32

I promise you this

34:33

is the only show you

34:36

will hear this degree of presentation I

34:38

diagnosed the problem of debt

34:41

and the economy and inflation gave the

34:43

messaging of how they should give it over the

34:45

strategy and leverage point for them to implement

34:47

it and then stand behind

34:49

it my concern is if they just kind of

34:52

do one-off like oh yeah quickly do

34:54

it they're gonna cave but

34:56

if they got together as a conference

35:00

fully controlled the narrative throughout the August

35:02

recess and said we are

35:05

doing our work we are passing all 12

35:07

bills we're having an open amendment process

35:09

we're going through each area of

35:11

government and going through the problems and

35:13

we are funding a budget reflects

35:15

your values we're gonna fund the values

35:18

of the American people we're gonna defund

35:20

the things that that are responsible

35:23

for woke and weaponization

35:25

things that are responsible for you

35:28

know pornography and taking parents out of

35:30

their school decisions like for the Department of Education

35:32

we're gonna defund the border invasion we're gonna defund

35:35

Pfizer we're gonna defund all

35:37

of this insanity that is

35:40

causing you to not be able to afford

35:42

any any items that

35:44

you need for food and fuel

35:46

all of this your Republicans aren't

35:48

even making the case that

35:51

we are now happy with a permanent

35:53

baseline of three dollars and sixty

35:56

cents gas when it

35:58

was 240 when Biden took office

37:38

never

38:00

make it stick. What DeSantis is

38:02

doing in Florida

38:04

is not just that he's doing a bunch of good things.

38:08

He's doing a bunch of good things in

38:10

a way that structurally and

38:12

culturally and legally, mechanically,

38:16

public policy-wise, denudes

38:18

the left of their mother's

38:21

milk. A

38:23

friend of mine told me that the governor told him

38:25

this when he took office, I'm going

38:27

to identify there's three sources

38:29

of power they have through education, labor,

38:34

that the Democrats feast off of, and I want

38:36

to permanently nuke it. So

38:39

that to make it as permanent as you can.

38:41

I see

38:43

the Trump people making fun out of him that he's boring,

38:47

a nerd. You know, in a certain

38:50

way, depending on the connotation of nerd,

38:52

they're not wrong. He

38:55

doesn't wake up and look in the mirror and promote himself

38:57

every day. He thinks, what

38:59

could I do to systemically

39:02

and permanently change things? Now, I think

39:04

it's kind of limited what

39:08

you can do as president. But imagine

39:10

if you had that as the paradigm,

39:12

governance rather than grift.

39:14

So down the ballot, we would stop accepting

39:16

in states where we don't have to worry about the media and the Democrats. We'd

39:19

stop accepting all this nonsense. And

39:21

let me give you a great

39:24

example

39:26

of what I mean when I say

39:28

this is

39:29

about this,

39:30

this was going on long before Trump, and it's

39:32

going to continue beyond him, but he's a reflection of

39:34

it. Unless we change

39:37

the

39:37

game.

39:39

This is a article from Politico,

39:42

a red state boosted public health

39:44

funding by 1500%. 1500%. This

39:48

is how he did it. It's referring to Indiana

39:50

and Governor honeycomb, that

39:52

dirtbag, disgusting biomedical

39:54

fascist, just literally a Democrat. Holcomb

39:58

pushed a 1500% 100% increase in

40:01

state dollars to local health education Sorry

40:04

local health departments through the GOP controlled

40:07

legislature

40:09

By the way, they control the legislature one branch three

40:11

to one the other one four to one

40:14

It also marks a notable deviation from the

40:16

approach the Republican Party

40:18

has taken to public health and

40:21

Basically, he talks about how they're gonna sit

40:23

and promote the biomedical security state

40:25

How Indiana will be every

40:28

bit as bad as freakin, California

40:31

With four to one majorities

40:33

in the Senate in a trifecta How

40:36

does that happen it happens because

40:38

we don't have Tucker and everyone

40:40

on down focused on people like

40:42

that and calling him out every day and

40:45

Building and spending your money on

40:48

on on ground game Legislative

40:50

Strike Force teams to focus on this.

40:53

That's how you have it

40:55

You see what I mean? This

40:57

is what happens when you have

40:59

but the Democrats all day Ironically,

41:02

you get

41:02

the Democrats in all of your territory

41:06

Your states still have

41:08

that

41:09

that's what needs to change

41:11

That's what I resent Theoretically

41:15

it shouldn't matter who you support for president

41:18

because we should all be able to get together and say This

41:21

is the strategy at the federal level. I just laid it out All

41:24

of these red state legislative sessions we should be

41:27

preparing for instead everyone's be focused

41:29

Obviously you can imagine January is the beginning

41:31

of the primaries.

41:32

So no one's gonna be focused on the legislative sessions

41:35

But

41:35

that is so so so important And

41:39

let me let me punctuate that

41:42

with a point about Tucker Tucker

41:46

so Tucker was at toilet paper as well

41:48

and

41:51

I'm trying to dig up this quote here

41:54

So Tucker

41:58

Was saying

42:00

that there's

42:04

a reason why they fear Trump more than anyone

42:06

and it's because of Ukraine and that's

42:08

why they're going after him. Here's what he

42:10

had to say at the toilet paper conference.

42:13

Take a listen. Disgusting. And

42:16

that

42:16

is exactly what in the name

42:19

of American leadership this

42:21

administration with the full participation

42:23

of the Republican Party is foisting on the world

42:26

and it's insane. Yeah,

42:30

well I have to say, you know,

42:33

whatever

42:33

you think of Trump is pretty clear on this and

42:36

they hate him for it, actually. They hate him

42:38

for it. And if I can just say, the foreign...

42:41

So folks,

42:42

here's the deal.

42:44

It's absolutely not true. And

42:47

here's the proof. The

42:50

Republican Party has

42:52

not changed under him. Eric,

42:57

ironically, DeSantis is the one who's

42:59

standing out. He is the exception.

43:01

Eric Holcomb in Indiana is the rule.

43:04

I mean, he's particularly obnoxious,

43:07

but most governors are more like that

43:09

than they are like DeSantis. That's

43:12

what they're doing.

43:13

Even Kim Reynolds.

43:15

For the best I can see, she

43:17

has not taken the Department of Health

43:20

and turned it into what Joseph Lattipoe, Dr.

43:22

Lattipoe, did. You

43:24

know, it's just not. No

43:27

other state has done it, but Eric Holcomb is an animal.

43:30

The reason is because Trump

43:33

signals and is a reflection, both

43:35

cause and effect and reflection, and

43:38

he signals to the movement, this

43:40

is what you focus on. But the Democrats, MAGA,

43:43

DEMOCRAT,

43:44

OH A TELEBOGA MEDIA.

43:48

And meanwhile,

43:49

so you're sitting and, you know, smooching

43:51

with the cheerleaders. You're sitting at the, on

43:54

the sidelines, you know, having fistfights

43:56

in the crowd, like having some of these, these football games.

44:00

And there's one team on the policy field,

44:03

on the governance field. There's

44:05

one team. It's the Democrats

44:08

and the Republicans, which is the same team.

44:11

So you could talk about, Trump could say

44:13

all the comments he wants about Ukraine

44:16

engagement is stupid, they'll still do it.

44:18

Because he structurally has not put

44:20

into place any movement to

44:23

change it even within the Republican Party, much

44:25

less defeat the Democrats on it. And

44:27

ditto for every other issue.

44:31

And that's even before we get to the fact that

44:33

Trump preemptively endorsed 95%

44:36

of these incumbents,

44:38

so that we couldn't even hope

44:41

to dislodge them. So before

44:43

Trump, there was a 10% chance you could beat them. Now,

44:47

what Trump's endorsement against you is a 0% chance. That

44:53

Indiana's story is so important. It

44:56

doesn't have to be that way. Folks,

45:00

like I say, if we

45:02

merely, you

45:04

know, let's say we were like, oh my gosh,

45:07

worst case scenario, there's too many brainwashed

45:09

people, the media is too strong, the Democrats

45:12

are too strong, their ballot harvesting and ballot

45:14

cheating operation is too strong. So we can't

45:16

win Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, maybe even,

45:19

you know, Arizona and Nevada.

45:23

But there are still about 25 states

45:26

and very much 2022 states

45:30

where if we just merely

45:32

focused our money, effort,

45:35

time, communications pressure

45:38

on our own sphere of influence, you

45:40

could extirpate illegal immigration,

45:43

crime,

45:44

traniism, green energy, grift,

45:47

biomedical security, and

45:49

even somewhat begin interposition

45:52

against weaponized federal government and protecting

45:54

liberties at a red state level.

45:57

It is so achievable, even...

45:59

without changing hearts and minds, without

46:03

having to win, you know, the 50-yard line states

46:06

in a national election. And

46:10

yet we don't do it. Because

46:13

there is no ideological

46:15

core to a shred

46:19

of the so-called conservative movement. There

46:21

just isn't.

46:23

I'm sorry to say it,

46:24

but there isn't.

46:27

And then they're always a day late and a dollar

46:29

short. Notice how every

46:31

time the issue matters and the way it matters. Notice

46:34

those of you who followed me from day one, how early

46:36

on I was on to exactly what was going

46:38

on with illegal immigration and even legal immigration.

46:41

The fentanyl stuff. Crime.

46:43

I was literally the only one saying, you're going to reverse

46:46

the crime, you're going to have a crime wave. Everyone's like, nah,

46:48

crime is record low, we need criminal justice to form.

46:53

Even being me and then watching my colleagues

46:56

somehow hijack those issues when

46:58

it's too late just to superficially

47:00

promote themselves and

47:03

Trump and jujitsu it into

47:05

a black hole.

47:08

And that's what it is. It all becomes about, see,

47:10

when you don't have,

47:12

when you're not busy with an ideological core,

47:15

you could latch on to anything and you will

47:17

latch on to anything.

47:19

To me, I'm so busy every day, I don't have

47:21

the time to even scrape the surface of all the

47:23

projects, the issues, the

47:26

strategies, the ideas, state

47:29

and federal, pick kind of our

47:31

top 10 issues that affect liberty,

47:33

economy, security, culture. And

47:40

we're just trying to produce substance and not

47:42

just abstract egghead, white

47:45

paper substance, but substance that's going

47:47

to drive a specific outcome.

47:52

So

47:53

I'm not going to be taken in by this or

47:55

that or this or drift into

47:57

this is cool, but that's what my colleagues.

48:00

And that's how a guy like Vivek could

48:02

just be like Take them all

48:04

the right articles on him. I

48:06

saw something yesterday something like Vivek

48:09

said, you know

48:09

Kamala

48:12

Harris has an un-American agenda like

48:14

wow, that's profound. I mean no one's ever said

48:16

that

48:18

Vivek reminds me of the

48:21

King and the Duke and Huckleberry thin if

48:23

you get the reference there Just

48:25

kind of like this like fraudulent

48:28

preacher just comes out of nowhere And now finally people

48:30

are digging up like even last year

48:32

his tweets. I mean he was against

48:35

Trump He was called to disgrace

48:37

what he did on January 6th. See biomedical

48:40

security for sure. That's his bread and butter Biomedical

48:43

fascism it complete fraud

48:46

But he's the perfect comedic relief for

48:49

conservative media You

48:51

see here's what Mike here's the predictive

48:53

predicament. My colleagues have Let

48:56

me let me explain to you where they're at They

48:59

need to tow the line with Trump. They cannot

49:02

afford to

49:03

cross him in any way

49:04

But but they do have this depending on

49:06

who they are a little bit of a tinge of guilt That

49:09

they have to show a little bit of substance, you

49:12

know They have to kind of recognize some sort of you know

49:15

Shortcoming in Trump like, you know, you just complained

49:17

about the vaccines, but he just pimped it But

49:19

they don't want to say Trump is being horrible

49:22

on vaccines So what they

49:24

use is for comedic relief

49:27

They hang their hat on RFK

49:29

and

49:30

VVEC Because that

49:32

doesn't threaten Trump in any way VV you know RFK

49:35

is in a different primary and VVEC Officially

49:37

isn't a primary but it's it but not only is

49:40

he not a threat to Trump, but he's indispensable in

49:43

Being used as a false flag against the

49:45

Santas and to suck out the oxygen

49:48

in the room So that's that's what

49:50

they're doing. I'm telling you notice it

49:52

watch the alacrity to which

49:54

they'll find any moment

49:58

To gobble up

50:01

Anything they say I mean you look a

50:03

lot of people have pointed out to DeSantis

50:05

has said a lot of he broke a lot

50:08

of news in that

50:09

Town Hall, I forget what city was in South

50:12

Carolina yesterday and today he's in introducing

50:14

his plan on the military I had a reform

50:16

the military. I haven't seen it yet, but we'll

50:19

talk about that. Maybe maybe tomorrow. I

50:22

Mean look even at my own outlet. I don't know

50:24

how many articles have been written on DeSantis Maybe zero

50:27

unless it came from me on this

50:29

stuff. I mean there might have been a few but it's

50:31

like Nothing. He says

50:34

matters

50:35

Nothing. He says but

50:37

Vevic could be like

50:38

Kamala Harris is un-american. Oh, I've

50:41

been I don't know what we do without

50:43

that Utterly

50:46

pathetic and then and then again

50:49

what happens when you don't focus on governance,

50:51

but it's grift You create a

50:53

movement built off of that so you

50:55

either have

50:57

What's happening now is either you have? The

51:01

same old McConnell people which is actually

51:04

most of them or if they're not

51:06

and you beat the McConnell people you're gonna beat them

51:08

with a guy like JD Vance

51:10

and JD Vance

51:13

what he's doing is He

51:15

says some things we all agree with like the anti

51:18

interventionism stuff and the neocon

51:20

stuff

51:23

And part of the part of the reason is because that's easy

51:26

Because the military industrial complex yes,

51:28

it does show up on the campaign trail, but it's

51:30

mainly an inside game their

51:33

power Whereas a lot

51:35

of the domestic policies that

51:38

those industries really influence so that's harder

51:41

to fight So he's righteous

51:43

on that but he's just pure populist

51:45

not free market populist not conservative

51:47

populist But populism is ends to itself.

51:49

It's like it's and whatever this is a

51:51

whole nother discussion this whole like big

51:54

government Thing where you come

51:56

full circle, and you know we

51:58

all recognize there are certain things wrong with the

52:00

kind of you know DC conservatism but

52:03

then they kind of go full circle and they throw out the baby

52:05

with the bathwater and They just sound like a bunch of

52:07

big government losers. So that's kind

52:09

of his shtick so anyway

52:11

JD started attacking DeSantis and he

52:14

basically says and There's

52:16

no self-awareness. It's the same thing of the people

52:18

that go and say, you know I'm

52:21

sick of these people that are cowardly to

52:23

meet with Tucker I'm

52:26

supporting Trump and they'll say it with a straight

52:28

face. So it's the same thing is like,

52:30

you know

52:31

To say this is social media influencers

52:33

are terrible. They're insufferable and that's

52:35

why I can't support it

52:37

So I'm thinking like okay. I

52:41

Don't know who his influencers are they're

52:44

not paid for sure and They

52:47

have nothing that you can't control the messaging

52:50

that every last person who supports you To

52:53

every Tom, Dick and Harry with like, you know

52:55

modest ten twenty thousand followers. I'm

52:57

talking about a million followers says But

53:00

yeah I mean I would say some people support him aren't on

53:03

my message like they'll kind of hit Trump

53:05

a little bit too much from The left not only

53:07

from the right like

53:08

you something will pick up on things. They shouldn't

53:11

pick up on

53:12

but I'm like JD name

53:15

me the Laura loomer equivalent

53:18

of DeSantis. Who is that guy? It's

53:21

all policy contrast yesterday

53:23

when someone asked you know DeSantis

53:26

about Trump that famous video everyone seeing from that

53:29

town hall that where she said my heart's with him

53:31

But I know that you're really the way to move on and

53:33

he said look I really give Trump a lot of credit for

53:35

things but moving forward really, you know,

53:37

we gotta we you know We gotta implement

53:39

things. He always is

53:42

very respectful

53:44

It's not just

53:45

bearing false witness. It is a Man

53:48

I almost said the f-word there. It is

53:50

a freaking blood libel.

53:53

It is a blood libel. I

53:56

Mean he cannot be more respectful

53:59

keeping it to contrast on policy,

54:02

Trump has called him the worst

54:05

things. And you're saying the

54:07

reason you're driven away from DeSantis

54:10

is because of the tone?

54:12

Are you blanking kidding me,

54:14

JD?

54:17

This is the vapid nature

54:19

of these SOBs. This is what we're

54:21

going to breed more of

54:23

if we don't change the arc.

54:27

I'm sick of it. And

54:30

again, you're going to have a lot of log cabin stuff

54:32

going on. A

54:35

lot of log cabin Republican stuff.

54:37

The traniism, I promise you,

54:40

it is going to be more accepted

54:42

among that movement.

54:44

Who is the paradigm

54:47

Trump candidate? So

54:49

again, to be clear, 90% of

54:51

Republicans, especially if you get

54:53

towards the statewide positions like US

54:55

Senate and governor are McConnell

54:58

Republicans. And Trump endorsed

55:00

most of them. But even the few that

55:02

rise to the point where they defeat

55:05

the McConnell one, they're not our

55:07

type of people.

55:09

And who would be the person, Carrie Lake?

55:12

And I will tell you, I'm not putting words. She

55:14

said we need to move away from the culture

55:17

war. Meaning as if we're the ones

55:19

creating the culture war rather than the left and

55:21

we're just staunching the bleeding. And

55:26

then when you look at her donors and top

55:28

staffers being part of the log cabin

55:30

Republicans, one of whom literally room

55:34

was a roommate of Bruce Jenner.

55:37

That is very disturbing. But that's what happens

55:40

when all you're doing is

55:42

I'm jousting with the media.

55:44

The media sucks.

55:46

Okay.

55:48

But you could still hold the position.

55:50

The media sucks. But if you don't have an

55:52

affirmatively righteous position, you

55:54

could say the media sucks and we should stop

55:57

the grooming. But then you'll be fine

55:59

with.

55:59

Bruce Gender because Bruce Gender also

56:02

says the media sucks and supports

56:04

Mita Tomp. And

56:09

that's just where it is folks.

56:12

It's funny, I didn't even get to a fraction of the issues I wanted

56:14

to,

56:15

but governance

56:17

versus grift.

56:19

Affirmative, positive

56:21

beliefs with a commitment

56:24

and a plan to implement them

56:27

or commentating about the left

56:30

and belly aching as an end

56:32

to itself because it's very

56:35

profitable. And

56:38

therefore that's going to tether you to

56:41

the person, movement, or idea

56:44

that becomes your meal ticket. And

56:47

therefore you will be willing to

56:49

accept and even promote things

56:51

that are antithetical to what you say you support.

56:56

And folks, that's just

56:59

not who we are. That's

57:01

not how we roll.

57:03

You come in a circle that is literally

57:06

at its most basic allegory

57:10

third grade understanding

57:12

of animal farm.

57:14

That's Orwellian. You

57:16

come in a circle and you

57:18

wind up supporting the

57:20

very things you said you support. I don't

57:22

just mean the tactics like, oh,

57:25

we don't want to be as evil as it. No, I mean

57:27

literally the policies, like not

57:29

like, oh, the left is vicious, so we're going to be

57:31

vicious. You know, I'm not opposed to that, you know,

57:34

when it's done correctly. What I

57:36

don't like is some of this just nastiness is an end

57:38

to itself. Like again,

57:40

people think like there's there's certain,

57:42

this is also part of grift versus governance.

57:45

People think that if

57:49

you're not like, what's that guy's name?

57:51

Andrew Tate. If you're not like

57:55

being crude with women,

57:58

then you're like a David French.

57:59

or Mike Pence. That's the false

58:02

dichotomy that we're being, you

58:05

know,

58:06

promote that we're being entreated

58:08

to.

58:10

And that's why they look at a guy

58:11

like
