In this episode, Tudor and Kyle Olson of The Midwesterner discuss the ongoing controversy surrounding Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies in universities across the United States. They explore how universities are allegedly rebranding DEI initiatives despite executive orders aimed at banning them, the implications of these policies on traditional values, and the need for accountability in educational institutions. The conversation highlights the challenges faced by students who feel marginalized and the broader impact of these policies on American society.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. I have Kyle Olsen
from The Midwesterner here with me today because we are
going to go through what is happening at universities across
the country.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
They've been told no more DEI. Now suddenly all these.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Videos are coming out and they are sneaking DEI, but
they're calling it something else. And they are so brazenly
telling people that they're just continuing with d UI.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
They just call it or du dei. They're just calling
it something else.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Right, So, the Trump administration back in what was it
January or February, they issued an executive order banning DEI
from universities, from the workplace, et cetera. So of course
the question is, well it does it still exist? And
so there have been a number of videos that have
come out, some in North Carolina and Florida. There were
(00:49):
some that came out this week in Tennessee. They were
on town Hall and Fox News and other places like that.
And what they're showing is basically, these universe are just
rebranding DEI as something else, and so they're not actually
getting rid of it. All they're doing is just rebranding, renaming,
(01:09):
and what these videos are showing is that the work continues.
The staff is saying as much that the work continues
and nothing is really changing.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
The work continues. And so I just want to explain.
People will have in the past called this reverse racism
or reverse discrimination, because I think there's no way for
people to fully understand what it means to be this
blatantly discriminatory toward white children. And that's what's happening to
(01:41):
the students at these universities. If you do not fit
into one of their buckets of diversity, equity, and inclusion,
you are really being discriminated against in these.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Schools, right And there's a variety of ways that that's happening,
either through the policy or there was reporting this week
that Universe, the University of Michigan, Western Michigan University are
still giving scholarships to illegal students.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And so here illegal students, what do you mean by that?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Students that are in the country illegally, illegal immigrant students and.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
They're getting scholars they're.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Giving scholarships, which obviously means if they're giving scholarship dollars
to a student that's in the country illegally, they're not
giving scholarship dowt those that's taking dollars away from someone.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Else, Do they know these are illegal?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Yes, because it's being done in the name of, you know,
helping more students, helping the downtrodden, or whatever you want
to call them.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
And so I mean, but that's interesting because I was
in on the east side of the state a few
weeks ago and one of the guys over there his
son had applied to the University of Michigan, and he said,
we are struggling now because the University of Michigan is
taking so few students from in state that our kids
(02:59):
who used to go to ivy leagues are now trying
to get into the University of Michigan.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
The kids that used to go to the University of
Michigan or Michigan.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
State are now going to community college because there's no spaces.
So you are telling me that our tax dollars in
the state of Michigan that go to fund the state
schools are being used to give illegal immigrants spaces that
our kids are no longer getting.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Correct, And so the Trump administration is trying to do
something about that. But what you just said about, you know,
the number of foreign students or out of state students
from and I'm not defending this, but from the university's perspective,
it's just a business decision because if they can charge
an out of state, if they can make make twice
(03:47):
as much on an out of state student as an
in state student, well what are they going to do.
They're going to admit more out of state students. That's
how the system is broken. And then you add on
top of that the ARREN students or the students who
are in the country illegally who are then getting scholarships
and grants and everything. I mean that the system is broken.
(04:09):
And so the Trump administration is both trying to reverse
or cancel these DEI policies and make sure that they
don't exist, but then they're also trying to deal with
that issue of giving money taxpayer dollars to students who
shouldn't be in the country in the first place.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
So what I think is so interesting about what happened
this week is that these videos came out and immediately you.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Have a Senate hearing.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
You've got senators on top of this instantly talking about it.
I mean, a couple of them were tweeting things out,
but in the Senate hearing. They're immediately saying, what are
you going to do to stop this? And I think
they were talking to Harmy Dylon right right.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
The Assistant Attorney General.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So she made an incredibly good point in this hearing,
one that I don't think that we think a lot
about and I think the other side has trained you
that you can't even have conversations like this. But I
want you to listen to what Harmie Dillon said in
this hearing just earlier this week.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
We have data crunchers and the dj who are helping
us analyze the data, but we're also relying on whistleblowers
like the ones you just referenced in the Vanderbilt and
the other schools that are engaging in this behavior, and
they're helping us expose the defiance of federal law. And
you know, it's very interesting. I've heard a lot of
lofty phrases here, but this is not unusual compared to
(05:34):
what we saw in the Browndie Board of Education era.
There were a decree came down from the Supreme Court
that separate but equal was illegal. And yet throughout the
United States, particularly in the South where I grew up too,
we saw government officials openly defying those orders by rebranding
and using different methods, and it took decades to root
(05:54):
that out.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
When they decide that they want to discriminate against a
certain group, when there are people who are so empowered
to do so, I think it's important to remember this.
She points out, this is no different than Brown versus
the Board of Education, and that the people in the.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
South were continuing segregation.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
You're seeing this now at our universities where certain kids,
if you're an Asian kid, if you're a white kid,
you are not entitled to the same perksite graduation, You
are not entitled to the same special areas in the library.
You are pushed aside for even administer admissions to the universities.
So they're looking at your background and saying you don't
(06:38):
qualify for us because simply because of the way you
were born. That is simply the reason that they're saying
you don't qualify for this program. You don't qualify to
be a part of the university. You don't qualify to
step into this section of the library at the university.
I mean, we're not joking when we say that this
is what's happening on these college campuses, and I thought
(07:00):
that the way Harmy Dillon pointed it out was so
important for us to hear because we have been conditioned
to say, you're not going to fight back against this
because you've been privileged, you've had this, you've had it
for so long. Wait a minute, getting rid of discrimination,
becoming a melting pot that loves everyone in the United
(07:20):
States didn't mean that any group had to be pushed aside.
But that's what this woke radical DEI group is saying.
If you don't fall into a certain category, and some
of those categories are if you're not trans, and if
you're not out there saying you're going to change your gender,
then you're not welcome in this area.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
This is outrageous and it's crazy to.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Think that Donald Trump had to come in and say,
you know what, We're going to make this illegal. We're
no longer going to allow you to do this, because
it seems like common sense when you actually listen to
what Harmy Dillon says. It seems like common sense, but
it's still happening.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
They're sneaking it right, and that's I think what the
Trump administration needs to realize, and I think they are
realizing that it's still happening, and in fact, I mean
at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, one of
the people was caught on cameras saying, quote, we've renamed,
we've reorganized, we've recalibrated, so to speak. If you're looking
(08:19):
for an outward DEI position, it's not going to happen.
But if you're interested in doing work that is covert,
there opportunities. And so what they've done is instead of
being proud about the DEI work that they're doing, the
work hasn't changed. They've just sort of gone underground. And
so what I see happening at these universities University of Tennessee,
(08:45):
North Carolina, at Charlotte, there was one or two in Florida,
Belmont University in Nashville. Basically, what they're saying is they're
going to continue the work. And so I think what
needs to happen is is the administration and the Congress
they need to get serious about this, and they need
(09:07):
to they need to understand that just because the issue
and executive order that says DEI is dead, it's not
really dead. They're just changing the name, and they want
to continue the work and so I don't know if
the answer is defunding, if it's audits, if it's you know,
I don't I'm not exactly sure what the answer is.
(09:29):
But these universities, the bureaucrats and the ideologues that are
running these different offices and agencies and departments, they're going
to try and stick out the Trump administration and just
sort of, you know, wait for them to go away.
But that's so that's what they're trying to do. And
(09:50):
so the question is what is the Trump administration? What
is the Congress going to do about it?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on
a Tutor Dixon podcast. So the other night I had
my daughter come into my room and she had been
with a friend who this is my daughter who will
go into high school this year, and she was with
a friend who is going to be a senior this year.
And she came into my room and she sat down
(10:17):
and she said, Mom, I was talking to so and
so today and she told me that school, high school
goes so fast, and so she started talking to me
about what that's going to be like, like how quickly
will I end up in college? And she said one
of the things that she said to me is that
I have to be really careful what college.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I go to.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And I know, I know that there are going to
be people who will hear this and say this didn't happen,
But it was shocking to me because it really did happen.
And the point of me telling you this is that
this is something now that our children are actually afraid of.
When we talk about the importance of getting rid of DEI,
they are actually afraid of whether or not their friends
(10:58):
are going to return from school and still be the
people that they grew up with. Because she was telling
me that this friend of hers said, kids that have
gone to these big universities have come back, they're totally
different and they're not Christians anymore.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And you know that.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
So in her worldview, obviously, her concern is will I
be able to continue to have friends that are Christian? Well,
I marry a Christian and that was kind of where
the conversation went from there. But I think that this
is this DEI that we're looking at, has really eliminated
the ability to have traditional values, traditional American values, traditional
(11:36):
Christian values, because you're almost demonized by these people who
are trying to say, we're going to root out anything
that is what America has looked like in the past.
We're going to make sure that America goes forward and
that you can't lift up the different backgrounds that have
been here. And it seems so it seems so unlike
(12:00):
what the left says. But if you're following what they're saying,
they are actually suppressing Christianity. Christianity, they're suppressing family values,
they're suppressing getting married and having kids, and so all
of those things here. I have a child that's going
into her freshman year in high school and she is
hearing from the generation that just graduated that they're finding
(12:25):
that kids have gone to school and essentially been indoctrinated.
This is having an effect. And it's not me saying
it that. To me, that was the crazy part. I
have a fourteen year old in my bedroom concerned that
college is going to change her or change her friends,
and where should she go. It's not that she lives
(12:46):
in my house. It's not that she got this from me.
It's not that she is around political people. She had
a friend who said, my gosh, when your friends go away,
they come back different. That to me is enough to
say this stuff has to end.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah, well, and it's I think it's really just getting
rid of DEI is not it's it obviously it helps,
but it doesn't really fix the problem because I think
this progressive ideology, this anti American ideology, is really at
this point is ingrained in a lot of universities. And
(13:23):
you'll see in these universities that are they're now you know,
Belmont and University of Tennessee and others, they're now putting
out statements saying, oh, they're hiring third party auditors to
come in and make sure that they're complying and everything. Well,
the reason they're doing that is because they want the
federal money. But this ideology is still ingrained in the university.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
But I'll say I think that this kind of stuff
has to happen. And for all of you who haven't
seen the videos, you should go.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Look this up because there were people who went in
these videos.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
I know you've seen some of these what I guess
you'd call gotcha videos and the past where somebody gets
a low level employee and they go out on a
date and they trick them into saying things. These are
people that went right into their offices. This is on
university property. They are talking to the people who manage
these departments. This is not low level employees, and this
(14:17):
is not somebody that's drunk.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
And out on a date. I mean, I think that's important.
These are people who are actually in their offices.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Like, hey, yeah, don't worry, we're going to defy the
federal government and continue to do this and continue to
disenfranchise children who are Asian or white because we believe
that we have a better plan. Well it's not the plan.
It's not been the plan. It's a rogue ideology, and
(14:46):
it has caused immense damage to this country and it's
going to be rooted out. So my point in saying
that is having this kind of accountability, knowing that people.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Are going to it's not just their third party, it's.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Knowing that people are going to continue to watch and
follow up with these universities.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
To me, that's critical, and.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I think I think the elected officials can't just let
these universities off the hook by saying, oh, we're we're changing,
because you know what these video show is that yes,
it's it's not just low level people, but it's pro
it's as system. It's vice provosts, it's you know, department directors,
it's those sorts of people, and it's those people are
(15:31):
acting at the best of the president of the university,
the board of the university, the senior leadership of the university.
And what we're what we're seeing in some of this
reporting is that basically what will happen is a video
will come out and then the university will say. The
response will be, oh, that was a rogue employee, or
(15:53):
they're not authorized to speak to the media, or that's
not our policy, and that person is you know, is
not in compliance. So they're sort of trying to, you know,
downplay the whole thing. But it's very clear you look
at these universities, you look at what town Hall reported,
for example, or what others have reported, this is the policy.
(16:15):
And they don't think much of Donald Trump. They don't
think much of his policies. And they're going to change
the names because they call it, you know, access and engagement,
or they call it belonging or you know, these sorts
of even more vague terms than diversity, equity and inclusion,
but they just keep going.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I think they've never had an administration this engaged though,
because like I said, these videos came out and it
wasn't as if there was a hearing on this, but
these videos came out and it was instant that these
senators were on it.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
You had Senator Blackburn, who is.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
The Senor Schmidt from Missouri.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
And Senator Birchett, who was to present representative, and he
was tweeting about Now, see, that's what I would like.
We haven't seen as much from the House, so I'd
like to see the House get involved.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
And I think the House should hold hearings too.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Christy Nome, the Secretary of Homeland Security, she also came
out and talked about this. I think we have that clip.
Let's play that as well.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
We're also seeing similar acts of injustices happen in Nashville
by other entities as well. We're seeing obstruction against federal
immigration law by Belmont University. As you know, they have
openly said that they will house illegal immigrants on their
campus and do that in defiance of the federal government.
President Trump campaigned on immigration enforcement. The American people voted
(17:43):
for immigration enforcement. They voted to clean up their streets
and get these criminals out of our country.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
It's been such an instant response to this. I mean,
so you were explaining this earlier. She's talking about these
illegals that are being allowed on university campuses. But you
think about this, how different the Trump administration is this
time than the first time. You have people who are
(18:09):
clearly saying we're going to make sure that these universities
are exposed. And I think it's important because most of
these are state universities that are getting they're getting federal money,
but they're also getting our state tax dollars as well,
and they're doing these things that are illegal.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I mean, that's what when we.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Had the Secretary of Education, Linda mcmahonon here and we
asked her about they banned men and women's sports. We
asked her about that, and in Michigan here the Michigan
High School Athletic Association was like, we're not going to
do that. We're not going to follow that.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
She was like, they're breaking the law. You know, this
is not an option.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
This is this is not we're not just playing around here.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
This is a law. It's the same situation here.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And I think these universities they see what happened with her,
they see what's happening with Columbia right now and there.
I think they're going to have to take this seriously because,
as I said, in just a few days you've got
high ranking officials coming out and saying we're not going
to let this happen.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Right, So, Columbia, what was the fine? Two hundred million dollars?
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Two hundred and fifty was it?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Two hundred and fifty million dollars?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I don't know what. Sarah held her hands up, but
I was like, what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (19:28):
All right?
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Two hundred and twenty.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
So, which is a significant amount of money. Yeah, and
it should set the precedent that these if these universities
are not going to follow the federal law and the
Trump executive orders. And they don't have to like the guy,
which is what that's their prerogative, but he's in charge
of the federal government, and if they want the federal dollars,
(19:52):
then they have to comply with the federal orders. It's
as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
We've had so many people on here that have said, well,
we've had questions before from audience members like I have
this situation, what do I do. I've had this in
my public school.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
What do I do. We've had parents on here who
have had public schools go after their kids.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
And I'm talking about K through twelve go after their
kids in a certain way, and especially with the trans
stuff changing their child's gender behind their back or attempting
to do that behind their back, and the parents find
out and they've sued, and they've sued these universities for
these K through twelve schools for a massive amount of money.
And honestly, we had an attorney on one time, and
(20:33):
the attorney said, the best way to get this to
change is to hit them in the pocketbook. And I
think that's what you know as a businessman. Trump understands that,
and that's why he's done what he's done with Harvard,
is that you get people to pay attention when you
say you will no longer have the same amount of
money that you used to have. And whether that is
(20:53):
your local public school that has done something wrong and
you sue them and you are then cost them money,
they don't want to be cost They don't want to
have money out of their pocket.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
I mean, you even saw this.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
So Kyle used to work in education reform, and there
were so many stories you told me about predator teachers
that instead of them going through the public having a
lawsuit or anything. They would move the teacher to another
secretly move the teacher to another school through the teachers'
union and have maybe a small amount of money that
(21:29):
they paid out, but not no grandiose information going out
to the public because they want to continue to get
the public funding.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Well, yes, and in those situations a lot of times
because a lot of the individuals that were being accused
were tenured, and so you first had to go through
a tenure fight and revoke their tenure. Then you could
actually fire them. And so the schools would see this
as a business decision and they would say, we could
(21:58):
spend one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, whatever, thousands and
thousands of dollars on a tenure fight and potentially lose,
or we could give that person a one hundred thousand dollars,
you know, payout a positive letter recommendation to go away.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
And these are in many cases teachers that hurt kids, yes, and.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
So then what so then they are set up where
they have a huge payout, they resign from their job
so they're not fired, and they get a positive letter
of recommendation and so then it's never you know that
the negative their personnel file and all of that is
never you know, released, so then they can apply for
(22:42):
another job and get it because they have a positive
letter of recommendation, they have lots of experience, and then
they're set up perfectly to do the same thing that
they were doing in the previous school.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
And I think this is something this is something of
the past, and I hope that this is something of
the past in K through twelve two because I think
people have been given a voice, and I think that
these videos that have come out and the fact that
we've heard senators and congressmen and secretaries, cabinet secretaries come
out and say we're paying attention. I really believe that
(23:16):
is the answer to pushing these policies back, getting these
policies out of these schools. And I think it's something
that we on the right have been looking for for
so long because we have been very vocal about it.
But it's hard to actually root it out, and it's
certainly hard if you're not in control, and having Donald
Trump in the White House, that's a big difference. And
(23:40):
can you in four years get this out of there
and keep it out?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
And that's why the.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Midterms are so important, and that's why twenty twenty eight
is so important, and you will see a huge emphasis
on that because you've got traditional American values being whittled
away at our universities.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
And like I said, you have kids that are going
from your home, and you all.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Have had this situation, whether it's your own house or
a friend somebody who has sent their kid to college
and the kid comes back and they're totally.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Different, right, and and so I think it's it's very
important for the administration and the Congress to stay on
top of this. And I think what's different is that
these schools know that the administration is acting like a
hammer right now. And you know, if if these sorts
(24:32):
of videos came out in the last administration, you would
probably see responses like, oh, they are selectively edited, or
they're taken out of context, or you know those kinds
of things, Yes, exactly. But with this administration, these universities
are responding and they're scrambling and they're trying they're trying
(24:54):
to downplay the responses from the individuals in the videos.
But they're not saying this is fake, this is taken
out of context, this is you know, edited selectively to
make the person look bad or anything like that. They're
not doing that. I'm just scrambling because they want to
keep the federal money.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on
a Tutor Dixon podcast. Well, and I just want to
point out how dangerous the last administration was, because there's
been a lot of talk this week about the Hunter
Biden videos.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
But I think for the wrong reasons.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
We've seen these videos where he slashed out and started
swearing about George Clooney and all these other people, and
it's always.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
That was in defense of his father.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
And you know, I think that you can always take
a clip of a video and make someone look like
they're unhinged.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
The concerning part about.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Him and that those videos, to me was his politics,
because there was a point. And that's why I bring
this up because to me, this is so important because
if you have if you who are not continuously in
the fight, and sometimes I have worried that Republicans are
not continuously in the fight for elections because there's no
time off, there's no year off. Democrats have not slowed down,
(26:12):
and they're putting out their plans right now. The thing
that scared me most about what Hunter Biden said was
when he said, if I were in this position of
running for president in the next three to four years,
and I became president, I would go to Al Salvador
and tell the president of Al Salvador to open the
(26:32):
prisons that Donald Trump of all the people Donald Trump
sent there, and I would personally fly them back.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
To the United States. And do you think if he's willing.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
To fly back, fly back murderous criminals to the United States,
that he would and employ all of this right back
again in the universities. And also he was like just
overwhelmingly praising Kamala Harrison, Tim Walls and saying like this
administration is the worst president Trump is the worst president
(27:01):
in history and just going I mean, obviously he's praising
his father, But I believe that what he said politically
in those videos was what we should be picking apart
and looking at because I think that he was very
high up in power in the White House and his
opinion mattered. And you think that he's gone because Biden's gone,
(27:24):
none of these people are ever gone.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Well, do you think he's out of the Democrat mainstream
thought with what he said?
Speaker 2 (27:33):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I think that he is actually the new Democrat thought process.
Like he was very nasty about Nancy Pelosi. Obviously she
knife his father, so you know he's not going to
be a big fan. But I also think those were
the old Democrats, and he was on board with the
new Democrats. And not that I'm saying that somebody's gonna
(27:57):
like him, is going to run for president.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
But in this country, you never know.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
With the Democrats the way they are, they could say,
you know what, the front runner is going to be
Hunter Biden. I mean, he is the smartest man Joe's
ever met. So there's a chance that you're saying there's
a chance, there's a chance, you know, But he was
out there, I mean three hours, and you know what,
if you listen to that interview, it wasn't bananas. It's
(28:21):
not like he can't find his way around things. He
knew the politics of it, and knowing the politics of
something is in this world half the battle. So he
was on the progressive side. And he said that too.
He said, I think my father did more for progressives
in this country than any other president in history, which
I agree. I think he was bananas. I don't think
(28:43):
he knew he was doing it, but obviously Hunter, who
people believe was behind the scenes, and I'm sure, I mean,
Joe openly admitted that he takes counsel from Hunter. Like
I said, he thinks he's the smartest man in the world,
and I think he was by his side for the
last few years. He was openly saying, my father did
(29:04):
more for progressives than any other president, and he was
obviously pushing that to.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Happen, which just saying something given Woodrow Wilson and all
of the other horrible progressives.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
But he was saying things like, look at what he
did to put money into infrastructure and to fix climate change,
and we know that that was all for these fake
these these these I guess I would say they were
like these activist groups, you know, activists who wanted to
have fake climate change, who wanted to talk about transgender
(29:39):
and he talks about transgenderism. He's like, you know, my dad,
that might not have been like really close and near
and dear to my dad's heart, but my dad could
understand it. I mean, the way he talked about these
things to me, him going bananas and saying the effort
did not compare to what he said, is the future
of the Democrat Party. That's what you should be listening
(30:00):
to when you listen to what he's saying, right, And.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
That's I think that's the direction that they want ahead,
which is why all of these things that we've been
talking about, you know, it's everything is on the line,
and so everything that Trump is doing, and you had said,
you know, earlier about how he's you know, he's been
very direct about everything. I mean, Trump has been very clear.
(30:25):
He was he was clear during the campaign about what
he stood for, what he wanted to do, and he's
been clear in in his six months that he's been
in about what he wanted to do, and he's doing it.
And he surrounded himself with people like Harmei Dillon and
others who are very committed to this and they're seeing
(30:45):
it through.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Well. I just saw, just to go back to the
Bidens for a second.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I just saw, and I don't know if this is true,
but I believe it is, that Joe got a ten
million dollar advance for his book. Oh, Sarah is nodding,
so we're going to say that that is true. So
because Sarah knows all the tea, So he got ten
million dollars. I know this sounds crazy, but don't count
Hunter out in this world, because there's a lot of
(31:11):
grace for people who have gone through drug rehab and
come back, and his SOB story on their side is
very effective. Whether it is that he is in an
administration or he has some sort of a role.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
I just don't think that he's gone from the political game.
And Joe's almost dead.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
He is going to bring ten million more dollars into
that family. And I say that because he has cancer
that's very severe. I mean, he's not going to live
that much longer. It's that is sad, but that's a
true story. So I think Hunter will be back.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Okay, that'll be interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
We shall see.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
So we will continue to update you on the story
as we get more. I think that we may be
talking to Senator Blackburn next week so we can find
out kind of the inner workings of what they're going
to do you on the federal government side, and how
they're going to stay involved. But other than that, we'll
continue to keep you posted as we know. So thank
you Kyle for joining me today. Thank you and thank

Make sure you join us next time, and have a
blessed day.
Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. I have Kyle Olsen
from The Midwesterner here with me today because we are
going to go through what is happening at universities across
the country.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
They've been told no more DEI. Now suddenly all these.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Videos are coming out and they are sneaking DEI, but
they're calling it something else. And they are so brazenly
telling people that they're just continuing with d UI.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
They just call it or du dei. They're just calling
it something else.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
Right, So, the Trump administration back in what was it
January or February, they issued an executive order banning DEI
from universities, from the workplace, et cetera. So of course
the question is, well it does it still exist? And
so there have been a number of videos that have
come out, some in North Carolina and Florida. There were
(00:49):
some that came out this week in Tennessee. They were
on town Hall and Fox News and other places like that.
And what they're showing is basically, these universe are just
rebranding DEI as something else, and so they're not actually
getting rid of it. All they're doing is just rebranding, renaming,
(01:09):
and what these videos are showing is that the work continues.
The staff is saying as much that the work continues
and nothing is really changing.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
The work continues. And so I just want to explain.
People will have in the past called this reverse racism
or reverse discrimination, because I think there's no way for
people to fully understand what it means to be this
blatantly discriminatory toward white children. And that's what's happening to
(01:41):
the students at these universities. If you do not fit
into one of their buckets of diversity, equity, and inclusion,
you are really being discriminated against in these.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Schools, right And there's a variety of ways that that's happening,
either through the policy or there was reporting this week
that Universe, the University of Michigan, Western Michigan University are
still giving scholarships to illegal students.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
And so here illegal students, what do you mean by that?
Speaker 3 (02:09):
Students that are in the country illegally, illegal immigrant students and.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
They're getting scholars they're.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Giving scholarships, which obviously means if they're giving scholarship dollars
to a student that's in the country illegally, they're not
giving scholarship dowt those that's taking dollars away from someone.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
Else, Do they know these are illegal?
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Yes, because it's being done in the name of, you know,
helping more students, helping the downtrodden, or whatever you want
to call them.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
And so I mean, but that's interesting because I was
in on the east side of the state a few
weeks ago and one of the guys over there his
son had applied to the University of Michigan, and he said,
we are struggling now because the University of Michigan is
taking so few students from in state that our kids
(02:59):
who used to go to ivy leagues are now trying
to get into the University of Michigan.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
The kids that used to go to the University of
Michigan or Michigan.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
State are now going to community college because there's no spaces.
So you are telling me that our tax dollars in
the state of Michigan that go to fund the state
schools are being used to give illegal immigrants spaces that
our kids are no longer getting.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Correct, And so the Trump administration is trying to do
something about that. But what you just said about, you know,
the number of foreign students or out of state students
from and I'm not defending this, but from the university's perspective,
it's just a business decision because if they can charge
an out of state, if they can make make twice
(03:47):
as much on an out of state student as an
in state student, well what are they going to do.
They're going to admit more out of state students. That's
how the system is broken. And then you add on
top of that the ARREN students or the students who
are in the country illegally who are then getting scholarships
and grants and everything. I mean that the system is broken.
(04:09):
And so the Trump administration is both trying to reverse
or cancel these DEI policies and make sure that they
don't exist, but then they're also trying to deal with
that issue of giving money taxpayer dollars to students who
shouldn't be in the country in the first place.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
So what I think is so interesting about what happened
this week is that these videos came out and immediately you.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Have a Senate hearing.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
You've got senators on top of this instantly talking about it.
I mean, a couple of them were tweeting things out,
but in the Senate hearing. They're immediately saying, what are
you going to do to stop this? And I think
they were talking to Harmy Dylon right right.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
The Assistant Attorney General.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
So she made an incredibly good point in this hearing,
one that I don't think that we think a lot
about and I think the other side has trained you
that you can't even have conversations like this. But I
want you to listen to what Harmie Dillon said in
this hearing just earlier this week.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
We have data crunchers and the dj who are helping
us analyze the data, but we're also relying on whistleblowers
like the ones you just referenced in the Vanderbilt and
the other schools that are engaging in this behavior, and
they're helping us expose the defiance of federal law. And
you know, it's very interesting. I've heard a lot of
lofty phrases here, but this is not unusual compared to
(05:34):
what we saw in the Browndie Board of Education era.
There were a decree came down from the Supreme Court
that separate but equal was illegal. And yet throughout the
United States, particularly in the South where I grew up too,
we saw government officials openly defying those orders by rebranding
and using different methods, and it took decades to root
(05:54):
that out.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
When they decide that they want to discriminate against a
certain group, when there are people who are so empowered
to do so, I think it's important to remember this.
She points out, this is no different than Brown versus
the Board of Education, and that the people in the.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
South were continuing segregation.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
You're seeing this now at our universities where certain kids,
if you're an Asian kid, if you're a white kid,
you are not entitled to the same perksite graduation, You
are not entitled to the same special areas in the library.
You are pushed aside for even administer admissions to the universities.
So they're looking at your background and saying you don't
(06:38):
qualify for us because simply because of the way you
were born. That is simply the reason that they're saying
you don't qualify for this program. You don't qualify to
be a part of the university. You don't qualify to
step into this section of the library at the university.
I mean, we're not joking when we say that this
is what's happening on these college campuses, and I thought
(07:00):
that the way Harmy Dillon pointed it out was so
important for us to hear because we have been conditioned
to say, you're not going to fight back against this
because you've been privileged, you've had this, you've had it
for so long. Wait a minute, getting rid of discrimination,
becoming a melting pot that loves everyone in the United
(07:20):
States didn't mean that any group had to be pushed aside.
But that's what this woke radical DEI group is saying.
If you don't fall into a certain category, and some
of those categories are if you're not trans, and if
you're not out there saying you're going to change your gender,
then you're not welcome in this area.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
This is outrageous and it's crazy to.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Think that Donald Trump had to come in and say,
you know what, We're going to make this illegal. We're
no longer going to allow you to do this, because
it seems like common sense when you actually listen to
what Harmy Dillon says. It seems like common sense, but
it's still happening.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
They're sneaking it right, and that's I think what the
Trump administration needs to realize, and I think they are
realizing that it's still happening, and in fact, I mean
at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, one of
the people was caught on cameras saying, quote, we've renamed,
we've reorganized, we've recalibrated, so to speak. If you're looking
(08:19):
for an outward DEI position, it's not going to happen.
But if you're interested in doing work that is covert,
there opportunities. And so what they've done is instead of
being proud about the DEI work that they're doing, the
work hasn't changed. They've just sort of gone underground. And
so what I see happening at these universities University of Tennessee,
(08:45):
North Carolina, at Charlotte, there was one or two in Florida,
Belmont University in Nashville. Basically, what they're saying is they're
going to continue the work. And so I think what
needs to happen is is the administration and the Congress
they need to get serious about this, and they need
(09:07):
to they need to understand that just because the issue
and executive order that says DEI is dead, it's not
really dead. They're just changing the name, and they want
to continue the work and so I don't know if
the answer is defunding, if it's audits, if it's you know,
I don't I'm not exactly sure what the answer is.
(09:29):
But these universities, the bureaucrats and the ideologues that are
running these different offices and agencies and departments, they're going
to try and stick out the Trump administration and just
sort of, you know, wait for them to go away.
But that's so that's what they're trying to do. And
(09:50):
so the question is what is the Trump administration? What
is the Congress going to do about it?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on
a Tutor Dixon podcast. So the other night I had
my daughter come into my room and she had been
with a friend who this is my daughter who will
go into high school this year, and she was with
a friend who is going to be a senior this year.
And she came into my room and she sat down
(10:17):
and she said, Mom, I was talking to so and
so today and she told me that school, high school
goes so fast, and so she started talking to me
about what that's going to be like, like how quickly
will I end up in college? And she said one
of the things that she said to me is that
I have to be really careful what college.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I go to.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
And I know, I know that there are going to
be people who will hear this and say this didn't happen,
But it was shocking to me because it really did happen.
And the point of me telling you this is that
this is something now that our children are actually afraid of.
When we talk about the importance of getting rid of DEI,
they are actually afraid of whether or not their friends
(10:58):
are going to return from school and still be the
people that they grew up with. Because she was telling
me that this friend of hers said, kids that have
gone to these big universities have come back, they're totally
different and they're not Christians anymore.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
And you know that.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
So in her worldview, obviously, her concern is will I
be able to continue to have friends that are Christian? Well,
I marry a Christian and that was kind of where
the conversation went from there. But I think that this
is this DEI that we're looking at, has really eliminated
the ability to have traditional values, traditional American values, traditional
(11:36):
Christian values, because you're almost demonized by these people who
are trying to say, we're going to root out anything
that is what America has looked like in the past.
We're going to make sure that America goes forward and
that you can't lift up the different backgrounds that have
been here. And it seems so it seems so unlike
(12:00):
what the left says. But if you're following what they're saying,
they are actually suppressing Christianity. Christianity, they're suppressing family values,
they're suppressing getting married and having kids, and so all
of those things here. I have a child that's going
into her freshman year in high school and she is
hearing from the generation that just graduated that they're finding
(12:25):
that kids have gone to school and essentially been indoctrinated.
This is having an effect. And it's not me saying
it that. To me, that was the crazy part. I
have a fourteen year old in my bedroom concerned that
college is going to change her or change her friends,
and where should she go. It's not that she lives
(12:46):
in my house. It's not that she got this from me.
It's not that she is around political people. She had
a friend who said, my gosh, when your friends go away,
they come back different. That to me is enough to
say this stuff has to end.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Yeah, well, and it's I think it's really just getting
rid of DEI is not it's it obviously it helps,
but it doesn't really fix the problem because I think
this progressive ideology, this anti American ideology, is really at
this point is ingrained in a lot of universities. And
(13:23):
you'll see in these universities that are they're now you know,
Belmont and University of Tennessee and others, they're now putting
out statements saying, oh, they're hiring third party auditors to
come in and make sure that they're complying and everything. Well,
the reason they're doing that is because they want the
federal money. But this ideology is still ingrained in the university.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
But I'll say I think that this kind of stuff
has to happen. And for all of you who haven't
seen the videos, you should go.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Look this up because there were people who went in
these videos.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
I know you've seen some of these what I guess
you'd call gotcha videos and the past where somebody gets
a low level employee and they go out on a
date and they trick them into saying things. These are
people that went right into their offices. This is on
university property. They are talking to the people who manage
these departments. This is not low level employees, and this
(14:17):
is not somebody that's drunk.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
And out on a date. I mean, I think that's important.
These are people who are actually in their offices.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Like, hey, yeah, don't worry, we're going to defy the
federal government and continue to do this and continue to
disenfranchise children who are Asian or white because we believe
that we have a better plan. Well it's not the plan.
It's not been the plan. It's a rogue ideology, and
(14:46):
it has caused immense damage to this country and it's
going to be rooted out. So my point in saying
that is having this kind of accountability, knowing that people.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Are going to it's not just their third party, it's.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Knowing that people are going to continue to watch and
follow up with these universities.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
To me, that's critical, and.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
I think I think the elected officials can't just let
these universities off the hook by saying, oh, we're we're changing,
because you know what these video show is that yes,
it's it's not just low level people, but it's pro
it's as system. It's vice provosts, it's you know, department directors,
it's those sorts of people, and it's those people are
(15:31):
acting at the best of the president of the university,
the board of the university, the senior leadership of the university.
And what we're what we're seeing in some of this
reporting is that basically what will happen is a video
will come out and then the university will say. The
response will be, oh, that was a rogue employee, or
(15:53):
they're not authorized to speak to the media, or that's
not our policy, and that person is you know, is
not in compliance. So they're sort of trying to, you know,
downplay the whole thing. But it's very clear you look
at these universities, you look at what town Hall reported,
for example, or what others have reported, this is the policy.
(16:15):
And they don't think much of Donald Trump. They don't
think much of his policies. And they're going to change
the names because they call it, you know, access and engagement,
or they call it belonging or you know, these sorts
of even more vague terms than diversity, equity and inclusion,
but they just keep going.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I think they've never had an administration this engaged though,
because like I said, these videos came out and it
wasn't as if there was a hearing on this, but
these videos came out and it was instant that these
senators were on it.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
You had Senator Blackburn, who is.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
The Senor Schmidt from Missouri.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
And Senator Birchett, who was to present representative, and he
was tweeting about Now, see, that's what I would like.
We haven't seen as much from the House, so I'd
like to see the House get involved.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
And I think the House should hold hearings too.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Christy Nome, the Secretary of Homeland Security, she also came
out and talked about this. I think we have that clip.
Let's play that as well.
Speaker 5 (17:20):
We're also seeing similar acts of injustices happen in Nashville
by other entities as well. We're seeing obstruction against federal
immigration law by Belmont University. As you know, they have
openly said that they will house illegal immigrants on their
campus and do that in defiance of the federal government.
President Trump campaigned on immigration enforcement. The American people voted
(17:43):
for immigration enforcement. They voted to clean up their streets
and get these criminals out of our country.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
It's been such an instant response to this. I mean,
so you were explaining this earlier. She's talking about these
illegals that are being allowed on university campuses. But you
think about this, how different the Trump administration is this
time than the first time. You have people who are
(18:09):
clearly saying we're going to make sure that these universities
are exposed. And I think it's important because most of
these are state universities that are getting they're getting federal money,
but they're also getting our state tax dollars as well,
and they're doing these things that are illegal.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
I mean, that's what when we.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Had the Secretary of Education, Linda mcmahonon here and we
asked her about they banned men and women's sports. We
asked her about that, and in Michigan here the Michigan
High School Athletic Association was like, we're not going to
do that. We're not going to follow that.
Speaker 2 (18:45):
She was like, they're breaking the law. You know, this
is not an option.
Speaker 1 (18:50):
This is this is not we're not just playing around here.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
This is a law. It's the same situation here.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
And I think these universities they see what happened with her,
they see what's happening with Columbia right now and there.
I think they're going to have to take this seriously because,
as I said, in just a few days you've got
high ranking officials coming out and saying we're not going
to let this happen.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Right, So, Columbia, what was the fine? Two hundred million dollars?
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
Two hundred and fifty was it?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Two hundred and fifty million dollars?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
I don't know what. Sarah held her hands up, but
I was like, what does that mean?
Speaker 1 (19:28):
All right?
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Two hundred and twenty.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
So, which is a significant amount of money. Yeah, and
it should set the precedent that these if these universities
are not going to follow the federal law and the
Trump executive orders. And they don't have to like the guy,
which is what that's their prerogative, but he's in charge
of the federal government, and if they want the federal dollars,
(19:52):
then they have to comply with the federal orders. It's
as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
We've had so many people on here that have said, well,
we've had questions before from audience members like I have
this situation, what do I do. I've had this in
my public school.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
What do I do. We've had parents on here who
have had public schools go after their kids.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
And I'm talking about K through twelve go after their
kids in a certain way, and especially with the trans
stuff changing their child's gender behind their back or attempting
to do that behind their back, and the parents find
out and they've sued, and they've sued these universities for
these K through twelve schools for a massive amount of money.
And honestly, we had an attorney on one time, and
(20:33):
the attorney said, the best way to get this to
change is to hit them in the pocketbook. And I
think that's what you know as a businessman. Trump understands that,
and that's why he's done what he's done with Harvard,
is that you get people to pay attention when you
say you will no longer have the same amount of
money that you used to have. And whether that is
(20:53):
your local public school that has done something wrong and
you sue them and you are then cost them money,
they don't want to be cost They don't want to
have money out of their pocket.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
I mean, you even saw this.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
So Kyle used to work in education reform, and there
were so many stories you told me about predator teachers
that instead of them going through the public having a
lawsuit or anything. They would move the teacher to another
secretly move the teacher to another school through the teachers'
union and have maybe a small amount of money that
(21:29):
they paid out, but not no grandiose information going out
to the public because they want to continue to get
the public funding.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
Well, yes, and in those situations a lot of times
because a lot of the individuals that were being accused
were tenured, and so you first had to go through
a tenure fight and revoke their tenure. Then you could
actually fire them. And so the schools would see this
as a business decision and they would say, we could
(21:58):
spend one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, whatever, thousands and
thousands of dollars on a tenure fight and potentially lose,
or we could give that person a one hundred thousand dollars,
you know, payout a positive letter recommendation to go away.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
And these are in many cases teachers that hurt kids, yes, and.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
So then what so then they are set up where
they have a huge payout, they resign from their job
so they're not fired, and they get a positive letter
of recommendation and so then it's never you know that
the negative their personnel file and all of that is
never you know, released, so then they can apply for
(22:42):
another job and get it because they have a positive
letter of recommendation, they have lots of experience, and then
they're set up perfectly to do the same thing that
they were doing in the previous school.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
And I think this is something this is something of
the past, and I hope that this is something of
the past in K through twelve two because I think
people have been given a voice, and I think that
these videos that have come out and the fact that
we've heard senators and congressmen and secretaries, cabinet secretaries come
out and say we're paying attention. I really believe that
(23:16):
is the answer to pushing these policies back, getting these
policies out of these schools. And I think it's something
that we on the right have been looking for for
so long because we have been very vocal about it.
But it's hard to actually root it out, and it's
certainly hard if you're not in control, and having Donald
Trump in the White House, that's a big difference. And
(23:40):
can you in four years get this out of there
and keep it out?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
And that's why the.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Midterms are so important, and that's why twenty twenty eight
is so important, and you will see a huge emphasis
on that because you've got traditional American values being whittled
away at our universities.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
And like I said, you have kids that are going
from your home, and you all.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Have had this situation, whether it's your own house or
a friend somebody who has sent their kid to college
and the kid comes back and they're totally.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Different, right, and and so I think it's it's very
important for the administration and the Congress to stay on
top of this. And I think what's different is that
these schools know that the administration is acting like a
hammer right now. And you know, if if these sorts
(24:32):
of videos came out in the last administration, you would
probably see responses like, oh, they are selectively edited, or
they're taken out of context, or you know those kinds
of things, Yes, exactly. But with this administration, these universities
are responding and they're scrambling and they're trying they're trying
(24:54):
to downplay the responses from the individuals in the videos.
But they're not saying this is fake, this is taken
out of context, this is you know, edited selectively to
make the person look bad or anything like that. They're
not doing that. I'm just scrambling because they want to
keep the federal money.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on
a Tutor Dixon podcast. Well, and I just want to
point out how dangerous the last administration was, because there's
been a lot of talk this week about the Hunter
Biden videos.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
But I think for the wrong reasons.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
We've seen these videos where he slashed out and started
swearing about George Clooney and all these other people, and
it's always.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
That was in defense of his father.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
And you know, I think that you can always take
a clip of a video and make someone look like
they're unhinged.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
The concerning part about.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Him and that those videos, to me was his politics,
because there was a point. And that's why I bring
this up because to me, this is so important because
if you have if you who are not continuously in
the fight, and sometimes I have worried that Republicans are
not continuously in the fight for elections because there's no
time off, there's no year off. Democrats have not slowed down,
(26:12):
and they're putting out their plans right now. The thing
that scared me most about what Hunter Biden said was
when he said, if I were in this position of
running for president in the next three to four years,
and I became president, I would go to Al Salvador
and tell the president of Al Salvador to open the
(26:32):
prisons that Donald Trump of all the people Donald Trump
sent there, and I would personally fly them back.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
To the United States. And do you think if he's willing.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
To fly back, fly back murderous criminals to the United States,
that he would and employ all of this right back
again in the universities. And also he was like just
overwhelmingly praising Kamala Harrison, Tim Walls and saying like this
administration is the worst president Trump is the worst president
(27:01):
in history and just going I mean, obviously he's praising
his father, But I believe that what he said politically
in those videos was what we should be picking apart
and looking at because I think that he was very
high up in power in the White House and his
opinion mattered. And you think that he's gone because Biden's gone,
(27:24):
none of these people are ever gone.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Well, do you think he's out of the Democrat mainstream
thought with what he said?
Speaker 2 (27:33):
No, I don't.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
I think that he is actually the new Democrat thought process.
Like he was very nasty about Nancy Pelosi. Obviously she
knife his father, so you know he's not going to
be a big fan. But I also think those were
the old Democrats, and he was on board with the
new Democrats. And not that I'm saying that somebody's gonna
(27:57):
like him, is going to run for president.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
But in this country, you never know.
Speaker 1 (28:01):
With the Democrats the way they are, they could say,
you know what, the front runner is going to be
Hunter Biden. I mean, he is the smartest man Joe's
ever met. So there's a chance that you're saying there's
a chance, there's a chance, you know, But he was
out there, I mean three hours, and you know what,
if you listen to that interview, it wasn't bananas. It's
(28:21):
not like he can't find his way around things. He
knew the politics of it, and knowing the politics of
something is in this world half the battle. So he
was on the progressive side. And he said that too.
He said, I think my father did more for progressives
in this country than any other president in history, which
I agree. I think he was bananas. I don't think
(28:43):
he knew he was doing it, but obviously Hunter, who
people believe was behind the scenes, and I'm sure, I mean,
Joe openly admitted that he takes counsel from Hunter. Like
I said, he thinks he's the smartest man in the world,
and I think he was by his side for the
last few years. He was openly saying, my father did
(29:04):
more for progressives than any other president, and he was
obviously pushing that to.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Happen, which just saying something given Woodrow Wilson and all
of the other horrible progressives.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
But he was saying things like, look at what he
did to put money into infrastructure and to fix climate change,
and we know that that was all for these fake
these these these I guess I would say they were
like these activist groups, you know, activists who wanted to
have fake climate change, who wanted to talk about transgender
(29:39):
and he talks about transgenderism. He's like, you know, my dad,
that might not have been like really close and near
and dear to my dad's heart, but my dad could
understand it. I mean, the way he talked about these
things to me, him going bananas and saying the effort
did not compare to what he said, is the future
of the Democrat Party. That's what you should be listening
(30:00):
to when you listen to what he's saying, right, And.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
That's I think that's the direction that they want ahead,
which is why all of these things that we've been
talking about, you know, it's everything is on the line,
and so everything that Trump is doing, and you had said,
you know, earlier about how he's you know, he's been
very direct about everything. I mean, Trump has been very clear.
(30:25):
He was he was clear during the campaign about what
he stood for, what he wanted to do, and he's
been clear in in his six months that he's been
in about what he wanted to do, and he's doing it.
And he surrounded himself with people like Harmei Dillon and
others who are very committed to this and they're seeing
(30:45):
it through.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Well. I just saw, just to go back to the
Bidens for a second.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
I just saw, and I don't know if this is true,
but I believe it is, that Joe got a ten
million dollar advance for his book. Oh, Sarah is nodding,
so we're going to say that that is true. So
because Sarah knows all the tea, So he got ten
million dollars. I know this sounds crazy, but don't count
Hunter out in this world, because there's a lot of
(31:11):
grace for people who have gone through drug rehab and
come back, and his SOB story on their side is
very effective. Whether it is that he is in an
administration or he has some sort of a role.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
I just don't think that he's gone from the political game.
And Joe's almost dead.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
He is going to bring ten million more dollars into
that family. And I say that because he has cancer
that's very severe. I mean, he's not going to live
that much longer. It's that is sad, but that's a
true story. So I think Hunter will be back.
Speaker 3 (31:45):
Okay, that'll be interesting.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
We shall see.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
So we will continue to update you on the story
as we get more. I think that we may be
talking to Senator Blackburn next week so we can find
out kind of the inner workings of what they're going
to do you on the federal government side, and how
they're going to stay involved. But other than that, we'll
continue to keep you posted as we know. So thank
