ready out there now are y'all ready out there now and goog that's what I'm talking about here we go come [Music] on is the swamp finally getting drained this is wild the real estate market in Washington DC and neighboring area as is exploding with new listings meaning everybody is putting their house up for sale and you might wonder why is that well people believe it's because 75,000 federal workers accepted president Trump's early buyout offer after what Doge discovered the US Aid was spending money on that Workforce is expected to go from 10,000 down to 300 thus today 1,300 federal employees that work for the CDC were laid off and the IRS is expected to cut their Workforce by 10% then you also have the executive order that was signed to bring all federal employees to work back in the office currently in the Metro DC area there are 5,581 homes for sale and 2,183 of those were listed in the last month this is the neighboring Town of Arlington Virginia in the past 48 Hours look at all of the new listings you can see them because they're tagged with that green coming soon some it's looking like a mass Exodus from Washington DC and the neighboring areas and some might say this is what draining the swamp looks like also Trump is correct when he noted that tariffs at one time were the principal source of federal government revenue from the nation's founding until the Civil War tariffs generated 90% of federal revenue I kid you not even from the Civil War until 1913 when the con Constitution was amended to provide an income tax tariffs produce 50% of federal revenue if Government were reduced to the size intended by the founding fathers tariffs could again replace the income tax as a primary source of federal government revenue 14 is a lot for television so I want to just go right down the list quickly and have you give me a thumbs up or thumbs down keep them or abolish them Department of Agriculture abolish gone Department of Commerce abolish gone Department of defense keep keep it Department of Education abolish gone energy abolish how except as energy ties in with the military well then we shove it under defense the little bit that handles the nuclear right that ought to go under plutonium and so forth goes under defense but we abolish the rest of it Health and Human Services there is some there are there is room for some public health activities to prevent uh uh contagion such a thing as for example so you keep the National Institutes of Health say and the Center for Disease Control the national those are mostly a research agency no no that's a question of whether the government should be involved in financing research and the answer is no well that's a complic that's a very complicated issue and it's not an easy answer with respect to that will eliminate half of the Department of Health and Human Services okay one half there we go Housing and Urban Development out oh didn't even pause over that one Department of the Interior oh but Housing and Urban Development has done an enormous amount of harm my God if you think of the way in which they've destroyed uh parts of cities under the rubric of of eliminating slums uh Jack K you know you remember and Martin Anderson wrote a book on the federal bulldozzer describing the effect of the Urban Development there have been many more dwelling units torn down in the in the in the name of public housing that have been built Jack k has proposed selling to the current inhabitants of public housing their unit their townhouse their apartment for a dollar a piece and just shifting the ownership to the people who live if you got rid of the Department of Housing and Urban Development it would be worth doing that all right done that's gone Department of the Interior your beloved national uh Park Service well given that the problem there is you first have to sell off all the land that the government owns but that's what you should do you could could be done you should do that there's no reason for government to own the government now owns something like onethird of all the land in the country and that's too much should go down to zero should go down to well not entirely zero they ought to own the land on which government buildings are okay terrific Department of Justice oh yes keep that one keep that one labor no gone State keep keep it transportation Gone Gone the treasury you have to keep it to collect taxes all right collect taxes through the treasury Veterans Affairs you can regard the veteran affairs as a way of of of paying essentially salaries for services of those who have been in the Armed Force but you ought to be able to get rid of it you should be by by off pay it off pay off lump sums perhaps and just get rid of it okay Milton fredman if you are made dictator for one day the next day the American government no I don't want to be made dictator I don't believe in dictators okay I believe we want to bring about change by the by the agreement the citizens I don't I don't believe in arbitrary let me put it this way then persuade if we can't persuade the public that it's desirable to do these things we have no right to impose them even if we had the power to do it all right from 14 departments down to fundamental functions what are its fundamental functions a pre uh a preserve the peace defend the country all right provide a mechanism whereby individuals can adjudicate their disputes that's the justice justice department Department protect individuals from being coerced by other individuals the police function right and now this is both the central government and the state and local governments the police function is primarily local and Central right and those are the fundamental functions of government in my opinion Milton fredman thank you very much let me ask you a question how many of you are concerned about the invasion of privacy that is currently going on by the Biden Administration Biden's doj is invading individuals private messages and targeting them based on their political affiliation and that's why I partnered with freedom chat a private social messaging app

been panicking over all this Insanity with these planes you know and that there's all kinds of stuff going on like so let's start with the string of mass firings by Elon musk's do dogy doy do do dogy uh has sparked a lot of chaos confusion and fear because Transportation secretary Shan Duffy is defending the firing of 400 FAA workers but former secretary Pete Buddha judge slammed the firings of employees who control Communications radio com uh computer systems all given given all the confusion so is this really the time to be laying off folks and and who is exactly getting laid off well they're seeming to uh be laying off probationary workers when you work for the Department of Justice or work for the government sometimes you have a two-year uh probationary period sometimes you have a one year or threee so these are people that have Pro are in their probationary period and they're not protected yet and so they're just kind of getting rid of them willy-nilly the other thing that they're doing is the union spokesperson said that they the people that have been affected are maintenance mechanics aeronautical information Specialists Environmental Protection Specialists Aviation Safety assistance and management and program assistance and I just want to just call back to what what Pete Budaj tweeted he said we put Safety First drove down close calls grew air control traffic control and had zero commercial airline crash fat fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch president Trump now oversees the military and the FAA one of his first acts was to Fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe the Secretary of Transportation sha Duffy posted the following on x quote here's the truth the FAA alone has a staggering 45,000 employees less than 400 were let go and they were all probationary meaning they had been hired less than a year ago zero Air Traffic Control controllers and zero critical safety personnel will let go not to mention that over 90% of the workforce under mayor Pete's leadership were working from home end of quote everything Drop It come on holy now this views co-panelist would beg you differ from M host I do think it's a valid point but I want to be very clear there is no evidence that the DC tragic plane crash had anything to do with these firings and then this most recent one in Toronto it was because of landing on a Canadian Airway and it was related to The Landing it was not there is yet at this time no evidence that's related to the layoffs do these Cuts affect you uh the cuts do not affect us Gail uh I've been in close communication with the Secretary of Transportation uh I understand that the uh the cuts at this time are are something that are raising questions but the reality is there's over 50,000 people that work at the FAA and the cuts I understand were 300 people and they were in non-critical safety functions the Trump Administration has committed to investing deeply in terms of improving the overall technologies that are used in the air traffic control systems and modernizing the skies they've committed to hiring additional controllers and investigators uh and safety invest investigators so no I'm not concerned with that at all never mind this guy BS a differ how do you feel about the end of the Dei era a little sad I guess you could say because I thought we were pushing forward being Forward Thinking I hope that we can do better than this do you think Dei initiatives are good things in Industries like Aviation military firefighting I believe so yeah and why do you think that I I don't know like I just uh think it n I'm not sure I just think it would be better if that we were forward thinking I'm old enough to remember when Democrats attacked waste Fraud and Abuse this report tells us how to cut waste cut red tape streamline the bureaucracy change procurement rules change the Personnel rules and create a government that works better and costs less by paying for these plans first with cuts in government waste and the efficiency second with cuts not gimmicks in government spending we prove that we can spend the money we have in an appropriate way and stop wasting so much of but over the next several months we will be looking at every other agency and program asking the direct question do we really need this agency do we really need this program 20 years into a period in our history where most American wage earners are working longer work weeks for stagnant wages it is outrageous for the government to have rules and regulations which take those people's money from them and spend it on things that cannot be justified one of the commitments that I made the American people was that we would do a better job here in Washington in rooting out wasteful spending now I've known Steven Miller Trump's top policy adviser since he was in high school poor CNN I understand that a that even a temporary interruption in federal employment is a great crisis and catastrophe for you and for CNN what the American people see is a government that is finally delivering a promise of accountability under President Trump you want to have a conversation about transparency let me ask you a question do you have any idea where the $22 billion that the Department of Health and Human Services provided to illegal aliens under Joe Biden is right now 22 billion with the B that's enough to provide a free house to every homeless veteran in America where's the $22 billion I don't know you don't know nobody knows Joe Biden just spent it and now it's gone transparency begins with having an accounting of where every Federal dollar is spent and God bless president Trump for leading this effort hammer time you mentioned yesterday and you mentioned again here uh illegal immigrants who are getting child tax credits if are are you looking for that information in the IRS data anytime a crime is committed of course there should be an investigation is it your position that if somebody who is here are you looking for that information in the IR data the federal government will find every illegal alien who is stealing American taxpayer dollars and that is what Americans find IRS I don't premise of your question it's a simple question question find that information in the IRS data and share that with law IRS investigators find illegal aliens stealing taxpayer money of course it'll be referred to ice of course it'll be referred to Homeland Security investigations of course it will be surely your position is not that we should let illegal aliens steal taxpayer dollars you want to talk about something to be upset about that's it what do you think the millions of illegal aliens who have also stolen Social Security illegal aliens in Mass have fake Social Security numbers they have fake identities those are felonies why should there be an entire class in this country that is immunized from Criminal prosecution and arrest for committing felonies felony theft of taxpayer information felony theft of Social Security felony theft of identity these are all crimes and yes they will be investigated yes they will be prosecuted and yes the will be deported and you know what happens when those deportations occur just very quick is that Americans will get jobs Americans will get benefit Americans will get hous Sten if they got a child if they got a credit a child tax credit and they they will be referred you're saying to ice for that and you would expect deported for that is that is that the position of the administration if it is found that a crime has been committed they'll be referred if the if it is justifies the prosecution they'll be prosecuted if it justifies a deportation they will be deported this will be based on existing IRS protocols and procedures for criminal investigation and fraud the difference is that no one is given immunity anymore no one is given permission to break the law anymore because this is not a country this is not a sovereign territory if illegal aliens can freely steal billions with a B billions of taxpayer dollars and I would have to imagine that that CNN which is endlessly talked about the importance of democracy and the rule of law would say that no class in this country should be of the law least of all illegal aliens who've trespassed on our territory Stephen I'm just uh asking I wanted to get your position on some things this we're not taking a position here we wanted to get some answers to some questions there are so many questions that need to be answer does s to me like you are in fact indifferent or unbias on these questions but thank you what can I say Mamba out you you must you see here's the problem Democrats are facing what Trump is doing is popular the things he's doing have broad public support as ABC's Jonathan Carl informed house Democrat leader hakeim Jeff it's not an Administration that is committed to the safety of the American people they continue to undermine it and flood the Zone with chaos more broadly we're in four weeks in this second Trump Administration what of all of that we've seen play out over these four weeks most concerns you well Donald Trump and Republicans consistently promised that they were going to lower the High Cost of Living and they've done the exact opposite they've shown no interest uh in lowering costs in the United States of America which are too high housing costs are too high grocery costs are too high child care costs are too high utility costs are too high the cost of living is too high in the United States of America this country is too expensive uh but they've broken their promise they have no interest in improving the quality of life of hardworking American taxpayers instead what they're trying to do while they distract the American people is to jam the GOP tax scam down the throats of people all across this country all in service of massive tax cuts for their billionaire donors and Wealthy corporations it's a toxic bait and switch that is underway and we will continue to push back forcefully but Donald Trump's favorability rating is actually higher than it ever was the first time around let me ask you I I a recent poll by Marquette looked at several of the things that he has done or has says that he is going to do and 63% favor uh Federal government's recognition of only two Sexes uh 60% favor deporting immigrants who entered the United States illegally 60% favor expanding oil and gas Pro uh production 59% favor declaring an emergency at the southern border is there anything you are see that that Trump is doing uh that you are in favor of do you think is the right thing let me say as it relates uh to all of those issues we're just at the beginning and the core promise uh that Donald Trump made is that he's going to lower costs for everyday Americans in fact we were told that grocery prices would go down on day one on January 20th costs aren't lower in fact costs are increased ing the price of eggs is skyrocketing out of control inflation is on the way up that was the core promise that's been broken with respect to immigration listen we have to secure the Border we have a broken immigration system and we need to fix it in a comprehensive and bipartisan way whale is early that's the best response he's got the man looked like he wanted to be somewhere else want to get away and this CNN analyst admits that Trump has changed the elector in favor of wait for it the Republican Party Donald Trump and the Republican party has changed the electorate what do I mean by that well let's take a look at party identification Democrats versus Republicans you go back to 2017 Five Points more of the electorate was Democrats than Republicans you go to 2021 when Joe Biden was starting out look at that six points more of the electorate was Democrats than Republicans but look at what's happened in February of 2025 look at this Republicans there are more Republicans in the electorate than there are Democrats Republican plus two so Donald Trump and the Republicans have remade the electorate they've turned some people over from being Democrats or Independents to become Republicans new folks have entered the electorate who are more republican-leaning and so when you combine that with the fact that Republicans are really really behind Donald Trump all of a sudden you get a winning recipe whereby you break the normal rules of politics and give Donald Trump that positive net approval rating when he had pretty much a consistently negative one in term number one as I said at the beginning he's copying Frank Sinatra doing it my way the microphone man is Marjorie Taylor green a beast or what toal meeting is this all you really talking about is the J Sixers that have been pardoned yeah okay are you going to talk about the Biden family that got pardoned no I haven't okay what about the rap rapers and killers and murderers that Joe Biden pardoned there tons of them is that a focus at all I'm asking about j6 I know I know that's what you're asking I know that's what you're asking about and that's I'm not doing this this this insane place up here and all of y'all's obsession with January 6th is absurd everybody outside of here is sick and tired of it I'm serious and so Joe Biden pardons all these murderers and rapists and disgusting people and then everybody up here has got their panties in a wad because J Sixers got pardoned like people that walk through open doors a lot of them walk through open doors that's it but everybody here is like a j6 seriously but you're you've been so at SS this year me yes I have and they're pardoned and thank God I hope they go live their lives and and can reassemble something back together because they have suffered enough go through a story and all the antifa BLM people that never serve time over 90 5% of them seriously think about that and go go go do a story on these cities that BLM burned to the ground and they never built back they raised all that money on at Blue and they never built those communities back I just you don't think it's a fair question to ask you because You' been so I I think I am it is nauseating I've seen I've seen all the the Democrat run networks ad nause them about January 6 and they just can't get over themselves but they don't give a about real American speaker just created a select committee to investigate Jor 6 so it's not like Republicans aren't talking about this no no but you're it was it was your question are you going to have J Sixers come in are you going to give them tours like I I'm so sick of you people and all this crap I really am in my the reason why I offet is because other people have said that and so I assumed you would be one of the people that would also be having tours just because I know you're close to some of the people because you're assuming you know the problem is you people never gave me a fair shot to begin with and you all these assumptions and all these headlines and all these lies so you came in ask me why don't you do a story on what people care about people care about the border the economy energy they're sick and tired of of the Foreign Wars they're they're tired of the hypocrisy up here and they hate the media right now they do I'm serious you guys have created a situation where you're not trusted and people are sick of y'all and it's sad I'm serious it's sad well so no I'm not I'm not answering question I'm not going down this stupid thing of [Music] maren we need Dei and identity politics because well you know white people Republican primary I beat out nine white guys in the general election I beat out a white guy by 30 points and it's a white majority District MH and they voted for me overwhelmingly and why cuz I was the best candidate mhm that's it it that's literally what our party is I get to wake up every day and live Martin Luther King's dream I'm literally being judged by the content of my character not by the color of my skin so people like me come around and we look around I'm just like actually I'm just here because I just want a better America I don't even view myself as black or African-American first first of all I'm an American I'm a combat veteran I am a father I am a West Point graduate I'm an Ivy League graduate and we can go all the way down the line before I get the black guy cool guy I I try to be right I'm all these things and I like the idea of our party not playing identity politics anymore and then realizing that you see people like me you see people like Byron Donald you see people like Senator Scott we are all winning in white majority areas by the way people so you can't call us racist anymore then what happened I looked out the window and saw a man run down the block can you describe him well he was uh yeah he was uh he was black he happened to be black I'm sorry it doesn't mean anything of course not it could have been anybody it just so happens that in this particular case he was black next time he'll be white maybe Chinese what was he wearing uh BL blue jogging suit can you tell me anything else uh what kind of hair hair well he had a he had a afro right what you can say that you can I thought so but I wasn't sure located in the heart of Sugar

values of free speech the threat that I worry the most about vvv Europe is not Russia it's not China it's not any other external actor and what I worry about is the threat from within the retreat of Europe from some of its most fundamental values values shared with the United States of America in Britain and across Europe free speech I fear is in retreat in Washington there is a new sheriff in town and under Donald Trump's leadership we may disagree with your views but we will fight to defend your right to offer it in the Public Square agree or disagree now the good news is that I happen to think your democracies are substantially less brittle than than many people apparently fear and I really do believe that allowing our citizens to speak their mind will make them stronger still and trust me I say this with all humor if American democracy can survive 10 years of Greta thunberg's scolding you guys can survive a few months of Elon Musk this brings us to Germany Victor Davis Hansen says Germany is on a slow motion suicide Germany for example has been systematically shutting down its nuclear plants and for a while it's natural gas electrical generation plants but the net result of all of this deliberate turn to wind and solar at the expense of fossil fuels and nuclear is that it cost about four times more to use electricity in Germany than it does on average throughout the United States that's not the only problem Germany represents the PowerHouse traditionally of the European economy and even culture and it's starting to implode [Music] hi I'm Victor Davis Hansen for the daily signal today I'd like to talk about the crisis facing Europe specifically its self-implosion across the Spectrum energy population fertility defense Germany for example has been systematically shutting down on its nuclear plants and for a while its natural gas electrical generation plants it's relying believe it or not more on oil and coal but the net result of all of this deliberate turn to wind and solar at the expense of fossil fuels and nuclear is that it cost about four times more to use electricity in Germany than it does on average throughout the United States that's not the only problem Germany is de-industrializing and by that I mean it's losing about 200,000 jobs in its Auto industry due to these high energy prices and regulations its green mandates especially electric vehicle mandates have revolutionized the car industry in the sense that they're not selling abroad as they did in the past in addition to that Germany's disarmed they only have about 125 attack aircraft they have very few armored vehicles they their military their active military is only about 180,000 soldiers they have 84 million people in the country the fertility rate is getting very close to 1.4 I know we have problems here in the United States at 1.6 but 1.4 and they don't have borders they have had a million to two million illegal aliens just prance into Germany especially during the last years of the Merkel chancellorship in terms of percentage of foreign born Germany has more foreign born than does the United States which doesn't have a border in the south at least until Donald Trump comes in 20% of the German population is foreign born why am I mentioning all of this because Germany represents the PowerHouse traditionally of the European economy and even culture and it's starting to implode the Euro The Benchmark of European Financial Health is about right now as I speak at the end of December $1 to1 Euro and sometimes uh even less for the Euro that's very strange because when I used to run a travel company to go to Europe I remember in 2008 the Euro was 1.6 almost 1.7 per the dollar so what's happening is that Germany is I guess we would call it undertaking a slow motion suicide but here's the irony in September 1944 at the height of World War II the Secretary of the Treasury under the Roosevelt administration Henry morgantha had a plan for postwar Germany When It Was Defeated he didn't want another War the Franco Prussian war of 18771 World War I World War II he said enough so what did he do he submitted a plan that was going to de-industrialized Germany depopulate Germany change its borders it was almost as if he was trying to turn it into something like tacitus description of 1 Century ad Germany as a pastoral agrarian society in fact he explicitly said that when J Joseph Geral heard about this he's he said oh my God this is a gift we're losing the war we'll tell all of the German people they want us to be permanently pastoral we'll starve to death and even if they don't like the Nazis as we've destroyed the country or losing War they'll fight thankfully George Marshall Chief of Staff of the army ex-president Herbert Hoover and others went to the Roosevelt administration said if you Institute this plan they're going to fight to the death and we have bombed Germany so when we get into Germany you'll see that it's almost depopulated now the net result was they canceled the Morgan thou plan that would have permanently made Germany depopulated disarmed de-industrialized what's my point in bringing up this historical example we the victors of World War II thought imposing a plan of deliberate de-industrialization depopulation disarmament open borders destroyed borders would be too carthaginian and so we backed off and now we're here 80 years after the rejection of the Morgan THU plan and the German people or the German leadership have essentially updated it and inflicted it on themselves willingly not by coercion that's a tragic irony and uh it's something we should all take a very close look at thank you very much and right on Q CBS embedded itself with German police when they conducted a raid on a citizen what did the citizen do well the citizen posted quote an offensive meme close quote online it's 601 on a Tuesday morning and we were with State Police as they raided this apartment in Northwest Germany inside six armed officers searched a suspect's home then seized his laptop and cell phone prosecutors say those Electronics may have been used to commit a crime the crime posting a racist cartoon online at the exact same time across Germany more than 50 similar raids played out part of what prosecutors say is a coordinated effort to curb online hate speech in Germany and 60 minutes actually cheered this is it a crime to insult somebody in public yes yes it is and it's a crime to insult them online as well yes the fine could be even higher yeah if you insult someone in the internet why because in internet it stays there if we are talking here face to face you insult me I insult you okay Finish but if you're in the internet if I insult you or a politician that sticks around forever yeah the prosecutors explain German law also prohibits the spread of malicious gossip violent threats and fake quotes if somebody posts something that's not true and then somebody else reposts it or likes it are they committing a crime yeah in the case of rep posting it is a crime as well because um the reader can't distinguish whether you just invented uh this or just reposted it at the same for us the punishment for breaking hate speech laws can include jail time for repeat offenders and did CVS's Margaret Briner really tell Secretary of State Marco Rubio that the Holocaust occurred because Free Speech was weaponized well he was standing in a country where Free Speech was weaponized to contuct a genocide and he met with the head of a political party that has farri views and some historic ties to extreme groups the context of that was changing the tone of it and you know that that the censorship disagree with specifically about the right no I have to disagree with you free speech was not used to conduct a genocide the genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocide ital because they hated Jews and they hated minorities and they hated those that they they had a list of people they hated but primarily the Jews there was no free speech in Nazi Germany there was none there was also no opposition in Nazi Germany they were a sole and only party that governed that country so that's not an accurate reflection of History I also think it's wrong again I go back to the point of his speech okay the point of his speech was basically that there is an erosion in free speech and intolerance for opposing points of view within Europe and that's of concern because that is eroding that's not an erosion of your military capabilities that's not an erosion of your economic standing that's an erosion of the actual values that bind us together in its transatlantic Union that everybody talks about and I think allies and friends and partners that have worked together now for 80 years should be able to speak frankly to one another in open forms uh without being offended insulted or upset now get this since Trump was in office according to the media Research Center 90% of the news from ABC NBC and CBS has been negative towards Trump what do you think would have happened to the German media if during def fur's Reign 90% of the German media attacked him are you [Applause] kidding democraty stunk so much for I disagree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it and this antifa member didn't seem to care that the owner of the Tesla on which the antifa guy spray painted Nazi is a Portland liberal the video shows the Vandal covering his face riding something on the hood of a car that happened in broad daylight I mean he was Brazen and Tim teas says the culprit targeted his Tesla parked in his Northwest Portland driveway on a quiet neighborhood street during Super Bowl Sunday while I was up watching the game my son and I were watching the football game I showed you the video they sprayed my car when teas went to investigate he discovered the word Nazi written in red and he thinks there's a connection to Tesla's CEO Elon Musk who's now serving president Trump I get that people are upset about Elon I'm upset about Elon you know um I bought the car before you know Elon went crazy hence the bumper sticker a sticker that'll have to wait since after cleaning his Tesla is now in storage I'm thinking about selling the the Tesla although I really like the car this vandalism reported to Portland Police follows other incidents including a suspected arson at a Salem Tesla dealership last month and in Colorado a dealership was hit multiple times police there said some of the graffiti was offensive and ha F while back in Portland teas has this message for the person responsible what I would say to him is like hey look dude if you want to protest I'll go and protest with you the $255 I I spent to clean my car I could have used to donate to the DNC or you know to a number of other organizations that could have done something a little bit more constructive now while he is considering selling the Tesla te's also tells me that he is getting more cameras around his home following this vandalism and a couple break-ins within the last 3 months a lot of people would have had a different attitude arrest the SOB now give it up for fahas I was a high school debater and I got a scholarship to college woohoo I got a scholarship to college yay I got a scholarship to college yay I was a high school debater and I got a scholarship to college wo I got a scholarship to college yay I got a scholarship to college deer yes I got a scholarship to college yay I got a scholarship to college yay I got a scholarship [Music] [Music] yay speaking of idiots I have no idea what this alleged comedian Trevor Noah just said maybe you can figure it out I found myself wondering and this applies to America and then maybe it'll go to other places in a different way because Finland ties in do you think that integration was the right move like I and now I'm separating two things cuz I know in America people like well of course I mean there people were there was racism and there was segregation and I go yeah no no no I'm separating them let's separate someone being oppressed and someone not being able to get a job and someone not being able to get a bank loan let's take all of those the negative things away because I'll put myself that personally and say I think whether we talking about gifted kids who are anomalous let's say to the norm whether we are talking about um and I mean anything anything that does not fit into a category I think the part of the reason Finland is able to do it is because have you been to Finland very I've been to Finland you know who's in Finland Finnish people that's it that's it and because they're all Finnish there's an idea of like no we all head in the same direction we all know what our actions mean and that's a really powerful thing I've learned in communicating with other people when I'm in a room with anyone where we start to tie together multiple things so if I'm in a room with black people already there's like an implicit trust because we know what certain actions words and and Vibes mean and then you're in a room with another African already now even if you shout at me I know what your shout means the same way an Italian knows what an Italian shout means right and know I'm I'm prefacing it with a lot because it's a loaded question yes but I would love to know if you think integration was the right solution maybe on the other side of you know what America of civil rights yeah no I don't and I and I don't think it's actually that controversial when if if you understand that segregation and integration weren't the only options like those are within those two options it may seem like integration is the more Progressive like of course we don't want segregation but again when you're being integrated into institutions into a culture that's a supremacist culture that's a culture that feeds off of hierarchy that feeds off of insecurity anxiety why are we being integrated into that and so part of it is to question what we're being invited into so Nations like Finland are better off than America which allowed people to oh I don't know immigrate can you imagine if Donald Trump said that hey Trevor Noah let's hear it for par tide let's hear it for Jim Crow you can never whip these birds if you don't keep you and them secret you've got to keep the White and the black secret Larry Elder here for the past 18 months I've been working with impactful pictures on an investigative documentary project called electric vehicles The Good the Bad and the Ugly which digs deeply into the multifaceted revolution of electric vehicles shedding light on not just the environmental promises but also the challenges and the potential pitfalls of this rapidly growing industry this all started and I began hearing this business about net zero emissions and that gas powerered cars are a threat to the planet and that there's it big push for electric vehicles I felt conflicted I love my gas powered car but I don't like being told what to do and I don't want the planet to be damaged now I've been in talk radio for about 30 years been in TV for about 40 I ran for office I ran for governor I ran for president I'm a bestselling author and a New York Times bestseller I've always been a truth Seeker so I decided to go on an investigative journey to find out the answer to the following question are electric vehicles really better for the planet than gas powered cars now many governments around the world have signed up for what's called a net zero emission pledge but a majority of Americans over 90% % are still driving gas powerered cars and they are facing the tough choice of whether to switch to an EV or not we need to get to the truth about EV our team traveled all around the country and talked to many experts and scientists in the fields of cars the environment mining National Security Etc we look beyond the mainstream media coverage uncovering the Lesser known aspects of electric vehicles like the environmental and humanitarian impacts of mining for minerals ESS itial for Ev batteries and what does the future hold for battery disposal and recycling we also don't shy away from controversial topics like the geopolitical tensions that arise from China's dominance in the EV industry and the mining industry and the potential vulnerabilities of EVS which could be prone to cyber attacks and excessive government control this award-winning team with producer and director and crew and impactful pictures have done in my opinion an amazing job to uncover the truth impactful pictures is an independent nonprofit Film Production Company dedicated to creating family friendly stories that entertain and Inspire meaningful change for Humanity this is also an important documentary that needs to be seen by all Americans and for production we've done it all completely bootstrapped having never taken one dime of outside funding to complete the project now we need your help to raise money for marketing and promotion enabling us to bring the truth about EVS to as many Americans as possible and help them make informed decisions on electric vehicles this documentary is not just about cars it's about the way we choose to shape our future so visit our website Larry EV film.com jooin us to learn more and help spread the word about this film join us to become part of the truth seeking movement and bring the truth to light thank you for all your support [Music] now I'd be a little more impressed if old Bernie self-described Democrat socialist who owns three homes also teed off on George Soros the biggest individual contributor to the Democrats and Mark Zuckerberg who during the 2020 campaign spent $450 million of his own money to get Biden elected does anyone really think that the oligarchs give a damn Trust me they don't where did the sudden aversion to billionaires being involved in government come from uh Zuckerberg spent $400 million of his own money in the 2020 election making sure that to Jin up the Democrat turnout uh one of the largest uh uh richest persons in Mexico owns the largest part of the New York Times Jeff Bezos has backed them George Soros money of course has backed all sorts of causes they had no problem with billionaires being involved uh in these activities but all of a sudden Elon Musk is a bad guy uh again this just hypocrisy on the part of the Democrats but why is it
