Listen to The Next-Gen Report live! Sundays at 7:00 p.m. on AM950, KPRC.
The 89th session of the Texas legislature is almost over, and we are still waiting on a lot of top Republican priorities to be accomplished. One of the biggest things still on the GOP to-do list is major property tax reform.
The second term of President Donald Trump is starting to really pick up steam, and he seems to be taking a new approach to foreign policy. Is the age of America acting as the world's police coming to an end?

Speaker 1 (00:02):
From the heart of the Space City to the heart
of gen Z.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Welcome back to Next Gen Conversation, not Dad's Talk Radio.
Speaker 1 (00:12):
Ethan talks to you about the issues and events that
matters to our generation. This is the Next Gen Report
with Ethan Buchanan.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
That hey, what's up, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the
Next Gen Report. I am, of course Ethan Buchanan. It's
a pleasure to be with you once again.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Check me out on X Underscore Ethan Buchanan, b U
C H A N A N. Stay up to date
on everything. I'm on X way more than I should be.
I spend way too much of my day on X.
You can benefit from that, you can learn from that.
I post good stuff. I repost good stuff. So check
me out there. And of course we've got the podcast
(00:52):
that I encourage you to follow. We do another Wednesday
episode as well. That's always a good time. So there's
a lot to this show, and I want you guys
to get involved. I want this to kind of become
a little community. I think that would be nice. All right,
let's dig in to it, shall we. We have got
quite a lot to talk about today. This has been
a very busy week, So I apologize in advance if
(01:12):
the show tonight seems a little bit hectic, seems a
little bit all over the place, it's just because I'm
trying to get to quite a bit right. And that's
one of the downsides of only having one hour with
you guys. So that's why I encourage you again to
go check out the ex and you know, the podcast
on Wednesday, just because there's more stuff going on there
and I just I don't have the time that I
(01:34):
would like to have in order to talk about everything
here tonight, So go look for those other pieces of content.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It's all good. Let's talk about Texas.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
We have, of course, had a number of issues in
this House this session, the Texas House this session, and
I've talked with a couple of different representatives about this.
I've actually talked with a lot, but you've only heard
a few if you didn't catch it. A couple of
weeks ago, I did an interview with state Representative Brian Harrison.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's up on x you can go find it there.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It's also up on the podcast, and we just kind
of talked a lot about the fact that the House
of Representatives in Texas even though it is a strongly
majority Texas House, almost a supermajority in the Texas House
of Republicans, it's run by the Democrats. That's because about
half of those Republicans and that what should be a
Republican supermajority, are more than willing to just kind of
(02:24):
vote and work with the Democrats on whatever they want.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Right.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's kind of that Republican in name only, that rhino group,
you know, the neocons or whatever term you want to
throw on them, that's them.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
That's the perfect example of them.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
You've got about thirty Republicans that will reliably vote with
the Democrats whenever the Democrats want them to on anything.
So the Democrats get the speaker they want, and that
means they get the bills through that they want. That
means they get the committee appointments that they want. The
Speaker of the House is a very important position. And
so if the speaker is elected by Democrats and is
indebted to those Democrats, even if he has an R
(03:00):
next to his name, he doesn't have to vote Republican,
he doesn't have to act like a Republican. And what
we've seen is that has not happened. The Republican speaker
that the people of Texas elected to go to the
House and then was elected to service speaker by those
representatives might as well be a Democrat. He has not
operated as a Republican and you're going to quite literally
(03:21):
pay for that.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
We've had a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
That were top priorities for the state Republican Party just
not get done in the Texas House this session. And
it's not quite over yet, but it might as well
be because we've already passed the deadline for the House
to pass House bills. So if a bill is filed
by a representative in the Texas House and it didn't
get passed already, it's not going to be.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
That's it. It's over. Something we have really not.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Seen from the Texas House is meaningful property tax reform.
Now they'll try to kind of scoop past that. They'll
talk about some of the things that they did do,
and they'll want you to be super excited about that,
but the fact of the matter is you're still going
to be paying out your nose for your property tax.
Here's Greg Abbott talking about, oh look, how great it
is that I just signed a joint resolution to put
a constitutional ban on capital gains tax in Texas.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Take a listen to this.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Hi, this is Governor Greg Abbott and I am about
to sign a joint resolution that will constitutionally ban a
capital gains tax in the state of Texas.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
And then he signs it, voters will vote on this
to ensure that we're not going to have a capital
Texas instead of Texas.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
The next tax law that I will sign will be
a tax saw to reduce your property.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Taxes in Texas. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
See, we don't want a reduction of property taxes in Texas.
And even if we do get one, it's going to
be completely offset by the fact that the Texas House
the state will lower the property taxes and then the
county will bump them back up again. Because remember that's
where most of your property taxes are coming from. It's
from your cities and your counties. Now, there was bills
(05:00):
kind of put before the Texas House and the Texas
Senate as well that would have said, hey, no, the
counties can only raise your property taxes so much. We
have to cramp down on how much local jurisdictions can
raise property taxes because if you're not paying that much
property tax to the state. But the county can still
come take your home because you haven't paid their property taxes.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Well, then you haven't done much anyway. Now.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Michael quinn Sullivan with the Texas Scorecard pointed out on
ex that this capital gains tax ban actually does not
address property.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Tax at all.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
And I don't think a lot of people understand this.
Capital gains tax and property tax are the same thing, right,
because what property tax is saying. They're saying your home
is worth this much, so you have to pay this
percentage of that value to the state.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
That's how property taxes work, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
But you may have bought your home for fractions of
that cost, right because property just go up in value.
Homes do go up in value. We know that to
be true. So that's essentially capital gains, right, is capital
gains tax. That's the state or the government looking and saying, hey,
you have you know X amount of money in stocks.
Your stocks are worth this much, so we're going to
tax you on the value of that stocks. Well, you
(06:11):
may say, hold on a minute, I haven't sold those stocks.
I don't have that money. All I have is pieces
of paper that say I own x amount of a
company that's not actually worth anything in literal terms, like
that's not currency, but they're going to try to tax
you on that anyway. That's capital gains tax. A property
tax is the exact same thing. Hey, I don't have
four hundred thousand dollars in the bank. I just have
(06:34):
a piece of property that some goober from the county
told me is worth four hundred thousand dollars. And now
you're telling me to pay you know, two hundred thousand
dollars because I have to pay fifty percent property taxes.
I'm exaggerating. That's not the actual number. I'm trying to
make a point here. That's the situation that we have
going on. People at the county level here in Harris
County is a big problem. They keep jacking up your
(06:55):
property taxes. So the state will say, hey, we'll give
you discounts on the property taxes that we as the
stack charge you. But the county is still screwing people
out of house and home, and nobody is doing anything
about that.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Nobody.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Now next year, campaigns are gonna start getting underway because
we have an election season, So all these state representatives
are gonna start telling you, hey, I worked really hard
to reduce your property taxes. Here's what I want you
to do when they do that. When they come home
and say, hey, I'm sorry your property taxes are still
so high. Send me back to Austin and I'll fix
it this time. What I want you to do is
I want you to ask that person when the speaker
(07:29):
vote came up, who did you vote for? Did you
vote for Dustin Burrows to be the speaker even though
he lost the GOP caucus nomination to be the Speaker
of the House. And they're either gonna say yes, or
they're gonna say no, or they're gonna avoid the question.
If they don't say no, don't vote for that person.
All right, we got a great show coming up.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Stay to him. We'll be right back. This is the
Next Gen Report on AM nine to fifty KPRC.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
All righty, welcome back the Next Gen Report with me
Ethan Buchanan. If you're listening on the iHeartRadio, if you
have that little talkback mic there, you can click on that.
You can record thirty seconds. It goes right to me.
You can say anything you want. I want to hear
your feedback specifically on this. You can also reach out
to me on Twitter at Underscore Ethan Buchanan buch A
(08:43):
n An.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Here's the reason I'm telling you this.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
I want to get your thoughts on this because this
is a complicated topic. Foreign policy is very complicated and
there's not really one right answer oftentimes right. But I
want to ask you this and feel free to disagree
with me on this. I encourage it. I want to
have an actual discussion. I want people to kind of
bounce ideas back and forth. What do you think America's
(09:07):
role in the world is? Right, there's basically two schools
of thought when it comes to foreign policy, and there's
really more than that. But this is where it kind
of boils down to. Right, you're either a kind of isolationists.
You don't want anybody to interact with us, you don't
want to interact with everybody else. Just America is going
to do America in America and whatever else goes on,
(09:28):
it's not our business, all right. Then there's also the like, hey,
we need to be stepping up and making sure there's
order around the world, democracy, freedom, and liberty for everybody.
We have to be doing that because we have the
military strength and might and principles to do it, go America,
bring freedom to everybody.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which of those is correct?
Speaker 3 (09:48):
It's hard to know for sure, right, I don't think
there is one right answer, and I definitely don't think
it's either one of those. I kind of tend to
fall somewhere in the middle. Right, I think we should,
in my opinion, kind of endeavor to stay out of
wars as much as possible, especially wars that aren't directly
related to us, Like if two countries have a problem
with each other and it doesn't really matter to us
(10:10):
at all, I don't think we should be involved in that.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Right.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I don't want to go die for another country. I'll
die for my country if I have to, but I
don't want to die for another country. By that same token,
we don't live in a vacuum, right If America is
not involved in something, something else is going to be
involved in something, or someone else is going to be
involved in something.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
So that's another concern you have to weigh.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
You have to take those two sides, and you have
to find the balance there, right between isolationism and interventionism.
For too long, I think after nine to eleven we
got way too interventionists.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
And obviously nine to.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Eleven was kind of a moment to look at that
and say, Okay, have we been two isolationists?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Do we need to be more involved here?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
I think the pendulum ended up swinging a little bit
too far in that direction, and as a result, we
have been way too involved in a lot of different
countries for a very long time, in a way that
I don't necessarily think has benefited us.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
I mean, we've had little advantages here and there, But
I mean, we've been nation building in the Middle East
for what twenty thirty years?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Almost?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
What do we have to show for it? Not very much.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
We walked out of Afghanistan and the Taliban just took
right back over, so we weren't able to set up
a functional government that was able to operate without us.
The moment we left, the whole thing caved in on itself.
So was that really a good use of our taxpayer
dollars and of the lives of American citizens. I would
submit to you that no, it wasn't. That's not a
knock on the people who serve there. Obviously, those people
(11:33):
are heroes and should be treated as such. That's a
knock on the politicians and the brass and the Pentagon
in Washington, d C. Who took them for granted and
wasted their service and sacrifice, right, because what do we
have to show for that?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Again? Nothing?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
So I think a lot of people are starting to
wake up to the fact that, you know, we should
be focusing on us.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
We need to make sure that we're taking care of
us first.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
And if that means we need to get involved in
some com flicks because we have to, then sure, okay,
go for it. But if we don't have to, if
we can focus on America and just be Americans and
make sure America is wealthy and protected, we don't need
to go nation building. We don't need to make sure
that every nation has a democracy. We don't need to
make sure that everybody has the same rights we do.
(12:19):
Wouldn't it be nice if everybody did have those same rights?
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Sure, that would be great. Is that a realistic thing
to push for?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Not?
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Really? Is that a good use of American lives and
tax payer dollars?
Speaker 2 (12:29):
No?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Donald Trump actually made this point on his Middle East trip.
He did a four day tour of a bunch of
Middle Eastern countries. He spent a lot of time in
the United Arab Emirates. He went to Qatar and at
one of these events he was at, he was speaking
at I believe it was like an investor's conference in
the UAE. He made this points like, for too long
we have been trying to, you know, nation build and
(12:52):
make everybody look like America, and we need to just
focus on making America look like America. And we're not
going to be doing that anymore.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Tagoism.
Speaker 6 (13:02):
In recent years, far too many American presidents have been
afflicted with the notion that it's our job to look
into the souls of foreign leaders and use US policy
to dispense justice for this since they loved using our
very powerful military, and now it's really the most powerful
(13:22):
it's ever been. We just are getting a budget approof
one trillion dollars, highest budget we've ever had in history
for military, one trillion dollars, and we're getting the greatest missiles,
the greatest weapons, and you know, I hate, I hate
to do it, but you have to do it because
we believe in peace through strength. You have to have
(13:43):
the strength otherwise bad things could happen. But hopefully we'll
never have to use any of those weapons. Seems to
be an awfully big waste of money. You're never going
to use them, but hopefully we'll never have to use them,
because the destructive power of some of those weapons are
like nobody see before. I believe it is God's job
(14:03):
to sit in judgment, my job to defend America and
to promote the fundamental interest of stability, prosperity, and peace.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
That's what I really want to do.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I like this outlook, I really do, because he's not
saying let's be a weak nation. He's saying, let's be
a very powerful nation that keeps to ourselves.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Right. I want to paint you this picture.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Imagine you're in like an old West saloon and you
see an old like grizzly guy who's got, you know,
a gray beard and whatnot. And he's got a big
old revolver on his hid. But he's sitting in the
very back of the saloon. He's drinking his drink, he's
mining his business. They're not talking to him. He's not
talking to them. Everybody knows he can kill everybody in
that room real quickly because he's been a gun slinger forever.
(14:48):
He's the best gun slinger in the business. But he's
not starting trouble. So whatever could happen in the bar,
he's in the very back of the bar, he's drinking
his drink, and there could be a big old bar fight.
Everybody could go nuts. But until you slam somebody into
his table, he's not gonna get involved. Until you not
go over his drink, he's not gonna get involved. America
needs to be that.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Guy, right.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
We should have the biggest, most powerful military in the world,
and we do.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
We should maintain that.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
We should have the most lethal force of soldiers that
human history has ever seen, and we should endeavor to
not use it ever unless absolutely necessary.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Unless absolutely necessary.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
We should be the people that say, hey, you want
to make a deal with us, we want to do
trade with us.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
You want to come.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Get a piece of our wealth and our protection, but
do not cross us, and we won't cross you. You
can have your government, you can have your policies, that's
for you. Governments are answerable to their people, not the
United States of America. If your government crosses us, now
you're answerable to us. Now you've tipped over my drink
at the bar, and we're gonna have a problem. But
(15:55):
if there's two guys having an argument over poker on
the other side of the room that doesn't involve us.
We have no reason to stand up from our table
go over there and risk ourselves to get involved in
the discussion of two hundred people that have nothing to
do with us. That has been our foreign policy for
a long time. We need to start asking ourselves, why
what have we gotten out of that? Has that worked
(16:15):
out for us? No, it hasn't. It's not our job
to rescue everybody. It's not our job to be the
global savior. It's not our job to be the world police.
We police our goods. We police our country. We use
our navy to make sure our ships with our goods
can travel back and forth. If you touch our shipping,
will hurt you because we have to defend our stuff.
(16:37):
But if you're minding your business and you let our
cargo ships go past, we won't bother you. You can
be a dictatorship and we won't bother you. That's your
people's problem. If you're you know, genociding people, We have
refugee programs. As long as those people will be of
benefit to the United States, they're welcome to come here
and become Americans. But we're not going to go over there.
Let countries be answerable to their own people, not the
(17:00):
United States of America. Now again, I recognize that situations
may vary, we may enter into different circumstances, and that
kind of has to change, that outlook has to change.
But as of right now, that seems like a decent
way to operate. I'm kind of with Trump on this one.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Again. There's a balance to be struck, obviously, but let's.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Kind of operate with that as the baseline, right, rather
than interventionism being the baseline, let's start with how can
we stay out of global conflicts rather than how can
we get into global conflicts? Now, listen, I recognize you
may disagree with me on that. I encourage that. I
want to hear why you disagree, So use that talkback, Mike,
reach out to me on X. You know where to
(17:38):
find me, Underscore Ethan Buchanon. Let me know what you think,
let me know if you disagree. Let's have a discussion
about this topic. I want to know what y'all think
about this. All right, we got another segment coming up,
stay to and when.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
We right back.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
All right, let's talk about the UK.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Something very interesting is going on over there, they're kind
of waking up to the same things that we've been
waking up to over the last kind of ten years,
since twenty fifteen when Trump announced.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
He was running for office.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
We have too much immigration of people that are not
assimilating to American culture or over there to UK culture,
which is very similar but slightly different because they're British
and we're better than them. All that to say, for
a long time, they've been kind of starting to notice
the same stuff that we Americans noticed, and that's like, Hey,
we have got to get a handle on who's coming
into our country and why and when and where. Right
(18:53):
that should be the case for every single country. Now
here's why this matters in the UK. The UK is
a very historic part of the Western world. Right, everybody
knows that the West is important. Because we just had
a whole discussion about foreign policy in the last segment.
If you missed it, tune in on Monday to the
podcast on the free iHeart Radio app and catch up.
But we talked about how America doesn't live in a vacuum.
(19:16):
We don't need to be involved in everything going on
everywhere with everybody, but we do need partners that share
our values around the world that we can trade with
that if God forbid, there's a big military conflict we
have to get involved in, we can, you know, get
involved in that together. We can partner in that, you know,
like World War Two. I think there's a lot of
good reasons that we got involved in World War Two,
(19:37):
and we could not have gotten involved in the way
we did if we didn't have our ally Great Britain
backing us. Up Right, the reason we've been able to
have such a close cooperative relationship with Great Britain is
because we have so many shared values and to a
certain extent, so much of a shared history.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Right.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Remember, the United States of America was part of the
British Empire, Right, so there is a good deal of
shared history. Basically all of English history prior to seventeen
seventy six is to a certain extent, American history as well,
because that's where we came from. So what are the
two reasons that you, as an American should care about
the kind of health and preservation of the Western world,
(20:17):
particularly in Europe. One, we practically need them in order
to trade with and when necessary, fight wars with. Right,
we need those close allies that share our values and
can work with us to preserve them. Secondly, it is
a beautiful culture, right. I think we can all acknowledge
the fact that a lot of these great monuments and
glorious buildings that have been built across Europe for all
(20:40):
of history are beautiful and amazing to look at and
just go see the fact that they're there, and we
know the culture, We know why they were built, we
know who built them, we know what the purpose of
them are. Many of these glorious, massive cathedrals that are
just amazing works of art, right, beautiful churches on top
(21:01):
of us needing the alliance of the nations where those
buildings are. It's nice to just have them, to go
and look at them. And a culture that does not
understand why these were built and who built them, and
doesn't see the value in them, doesn't seek to preserve them,
we will lose those things. We will lose these beautiful,
magnificent cathedrals, these ancient buildings that have been preserved because
(21:24):
the people there understand the value of them, because it's
part of their history and culture. If we lose those people,
those buildings, those beautiful works of art go next. And
then the thing that goes after that is our military
and strategic and economic alliances, which we do desperately need.
So that's why you, as an American should care about
immigration all over the world, not just in America. Obviously,
(21:47):
this is where we need to be dealing with the
problem because it affects us most immediately here. Obviously, we
need to make sure before anything else, our country, our culture,
our beautiful monuments are preserved, and then we should be saying, hey,
at least keep an eye on what's happening in Europe.
So that's what we're gonna do in this segment. We're
gonna keep an eye on what's happening in Europe. First
of all, let me give you an idea of what
(22:08):
is going on in the UK, in Great Britain. First
of all, they have, as we do, a huge immigration crisis.
These are people coming from third world countries into the
UK for handouts by the millions.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
All right.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Many of these people are Muslim people, which means they
do not share the same values as European Christians. They
do not share the same history and heritage, all right.
So that's red flag number one, and these people are
not willing to integrate.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
They aren't.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
They're going there for handouts, not to become good citizens.
We've talked about this before. What does a country need
from immigrants, people that are willing to assimilate and provide
for themselves. That's not what we have here. Take a
listen to this guy in Britain. He's an immigrant from
somewhere else, probably Africa, some third world country, and he's
talking to this British reporter and he's just saying, I
want people to give me things. I came here, Give
(22:55):
me a house, give me everything I need. That's a problem,
not the type of people you want coming into your country.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Take a listen.
Speaker 7 (23:02):
I should English people pay for you to have a house?
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Ah? Maybe the give me?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
How that?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Give me anything I need to give me? Just give it? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Why because it's people.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Because people ain't gonna it's perfect.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
Oh so you think we're so we're well, we think
we're all with you think we're all rich people.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
People in England are perfect. Just give me everything. Okay,
Well that's ridiculous. I'm sure by his third world country standards,
everybody looks rich, right, but we all know we're not
all rich, right, I'm sure. I to some guy in
a third world. Look rich, I have a good apartment
in a nice part of the city. I live in
the best city in the world, and I'm able to
(23:53):
provide for myself comfortably. I'm not rich, but I'm doing
all right, Right. I don't have the capacity to make
sure everybody in the world can live at that same
level of luxury. And what happens is everybody goes down
when you try to even that out right. That's the
big problem with communism. It doesn't make everybody rich. It
makes everybody poor except the few people at the very
(24:14):
top of the government.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Those people are rich. It's the same concept here.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
If this guy's coming in and saying everybody needs to
just give me money, everybody just give me, give me
a house, give me what they need. Okay, If you
start putting that burden on everybody, everybody's going to become
the third World.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
We don't want that.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
We don't want that here in America, and we don't
want that for our friends across the pond. So obviously
that's a problem for the UK and their people have
started to notice. They just had a big election. That
was a main focal point issue of the election was, hey,
we have got to solve this immigration crisis. We have
got to start getting these people out of here because
they don't need to be here. They're not of any
benefit to us. They're a drag on our system and
(24:51):
they don't share our values. They've got to go now.
Ironically enough, if you actually say that online in England,
you can likely get thrown in jail for it. They
have no freedom of speech and what I just said
could be like a racist hate crime in the UK
just for saying it on the air. And the British
government has been kind of protecting this crisis.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
They've allowed the crisis to happen. If you speak out
against it, you go to jail.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Now.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I don't know what Trump did to Keir Starmer, the
British Prime Minister, but on a dime, he has completely
flipped on this issue. And I think it's worthwhile pointing
out because if Keir Starmer is being legitimate here and
is actually going to solve this problem, that's great news
for England and of course great news for US because
we want our allies to be safe in healthy countries.
But even if he's just lying through his teeth about
(25:36):
wanting to solve this problem, that's pretty notable as well.
So we all know Kir Starmer had this big meeting
with Trump and then they came to a trade agreement
and they announced that Kiir Starmer was on the phone.
We had a big press conference in the Oval Office.
It was great. Everybody who's clapping hands, hugging, smiling, It
was amazing. And now Keir Starmer over the week has
just gone completely like radical far right on immigration. So
(26:00):
he tweeted out, I know you're angry about immigration. I
get it, Mark my words. I will take back control
of our borders. That means cutting immigration, ending the use
of asylum hotels, ramping up our efforts to stop small
boat crossings. We will smash the people smuggling gangs at source.
That's great news if he means it. If he means it,
I don't know if he means it. We'll have to
(26:21):
wait and see. He also did a kind of press
conference where he announced that all of a sudden, the
British government is going to start protecting its borders. Take
a listen.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
Migration is part of Britain's national story. We talked last
week about the great rebuilding of this country after the war.
Migrants were part of that and they make a massive
contribution today and you will never hear me denigrate that.
But when people come to our country, they should also
commit to integration, to learning our language, and our system
(26:51):
should actively distinguish between those that do and those that don't.
I think that's fair. Equally, Britain must compete for the
best talent in the world in science and technology, in healthcare.
You can't simply pull up a drawbridge, let nobody in
and think that's an economy that would work. That would
hurt the pay packets of working people without questions. Put
(27:15):
At the same time, we do have to ask why
parts of our economy seem almost addicted to importing cheap
labor rather than investing in the skills of people who
are here and wants a good job in their community.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
I mean, he sounds a lot like Donald Trump here.
He's saying, listen, we obviously want to compete for the
best holler around the world.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
That makes sense.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
You want your country to have the best people, but
you want those people to come in and integrate, and
you also don't want to forsake the people you have
in your country already, the people that are already your citizens.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That makes perfect sense.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
He also tweeted out, for too long Britain has been
addicted to cheap overseas labor, while one in eight of
our young people aren't in education, employment or training. And
putting our young people first, investing in skills they need,
and ending our dependence on foreign labor, that's a good
thing for England.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
That's great. He went on to post.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Foreign criminals have no right to be in Britain. We've
removed over three thy five hundred since July, sixteen percent
more than the last year of the Tories. And that's
just the start. We've already returned over twenty four thousand
people with no right to be here, and I won't
stop there. Settlement in the UK is a privilege that
has earned, not a right. He's saying all of the
right things. Let's see if his actions match up. Let's
(28:21):
see if he actually acts on what he's tweeting out.
But he's saying the right things there, and this should
all be common sense. Listen, it's great to have cultural exchange.
It's great to go visit other countries and learn about
their culture and their history and what makes them great and.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Beautiful and unique.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
If you open all your borders and a lot of
people from the Third World to bring their own culture
and then destroy your culture and the structural integrity of
your nation. You lose all of that. All right, Let's
all of us have separate, distinct, beautiful, secure cultures and countries.
I think that's a good idea. All right, stay to him.
We got one more segment coming up. This is the
next Gen report. All right, let's close things out by uh,
(29:22):
let's talk about Joe Biden. I know I hate to
keep bringing him up, but it is important. He was
the president for four years. That matters.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
All Right.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
We are now getting more and more evidence that this
guy was dead the entire time. He was dead the
whole time he was president of the United States, and
this is becoming completely undeniable. So we're all familiar with
her report, right, So, remember Donald Trump had his house
mar A Lago rated because he had documents that he
(29:53):
may or may not have been supposed to have that case.
I don't know where that ended up going, but he's
the president now, so it doesn't matter. Basically, they say
Donald Trump had secure documents in a place he should
not have had secure documents. Then we find out, hey,
Joe Biden also had secure documents in a place where
he shouldn't have had secure documents from the time where
(30:14):
he was in the White House, from when he was
vice president. So that's a problem too. So in order
to appear impartial, because MAGA was pissed off because you
rated the former president's house with stacked to the teeth
FBI agents and whatnot, obviously people were upset about that.
So just for the purpose of saying, oh, no, we
take this very seriously when everybody does it, not just
(30:35):
Donald Trump, will interview Joe Biden about it as well.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Now he was the president at the time.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
What I'm about to plague you is audio of Robert Herr,
who's an investigator, asking Joe Biden about these documents, and
Joe Biden just caves in on himself.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Take a listen to this.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Drea Chambers, Road and work doctors to Biden or life
shot were looking where did you keep papers that really
had to those things that you were actually working?
Speaker 9 (31:16):
Well, I don't know, I don't know it.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Twenty seventeen eighteen.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Down here.
Speaker 9 (31:28):
Just remember in this time frame, my son is either
been deployed or is dying.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
And and so if it was. And by the way,
there were still a lot of people at the time when.
Speaker 9 (31:53):
I got out of this and that were encouraging me
to run in this period.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Where did that come from?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
All the president? Uh No, I'm not being there, not
a mean thing you said.
Speaker 9 (32:07):
Man, you just thought that she had a better shot
but winning the president that I did. And so I hadn't.
I hadn't at this point, even not a band. I
hadn't walked away from the idea that I might run
for office again. You know ifire Grant again be running
for president.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
And uh and so what was happening though? When one
boat die? Uh would grab a made thirty thirty years
in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
When the twenty fifteen and died May twenty fifteen, think
it's twenty fifteen or eat.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
That much of the months or when he goes in.
That's right, mister president, because and what's happened in the
meantime is that uh.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
As a.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Come on, get there, Joe.
Speaker 9 (33:02):
Get selected in November twenty seventeen, six sixteen, twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
All right, so.
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Twenty seventeen, that's when you left office. In January seventh, Oka,
but Fashino Trump.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Has sworn in Okay, I don't even know what he's
talking about anymore. I have no clue what he's talking
about anymore.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Remember what the.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Original question was, where did you keep the papers that
were related to things you were actively working on? He's
been rambling for over a minute and a half talking
about God only knows what. He can't remember where his
son died, which that's kind of a big deal. You
should remember when your son died if you're still mentally capable.
If you're a very old man who's kind of feeble
(33:56):
in the mind, as old people often are, it makes
sense that you would forget something like that and have
to kind of work that back into your brain. But
if you're supposedly mentally well enough to be the president
of the United States, something as significant as the death
of a child should be something that you should be
able to recall.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
But it's not.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Again, his first answer was, I don't know where I
kept those documents, and then he went for a minute
and a half about a bunch of things that have
nothing to do with the question. He was asked, does
this sound like a guy who's healthy, Does this sound
like a guy who kind of knows what's going on?
He's got his mind wrapped around all the various things
that you just have to have your mind wrapped around
(34:35):
in order to serve as president of the United States. No,
not even slightly. This sounds like a guy that needs
to be in a retirement home or you know, just
with his family. Hopefully he's got a family that's set
up enough to prepare and care for him, so he
doesn't have to really be in a retirement home. He
can just be with his family and they can care
for him. That's the ideal world. But that's where he
(34:56):
should be, not in the freaking White House, not in
front of cameras.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
This guy was not capable. We know that.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
Donald Trump on Air Force One actually commented on this.
He's like, I know people that are very old and
very mentally with it.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Those people exist. Joe Biden was not one of those people.
Speaker 10 (35:14):
I know people that are eighty nine, ninety ninety two, ninety.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Three years old and are literally perfect. But Joe was
not one of them. And they did a lot of hiding.
Speaker 10 (35:24):
They were really playing games, and you know, you can't
do that. Our country is just said, you see, even
a thing like this, there's so many decisions for Vidians
and Vidians, but then you have even more important decisions,
you have decisions for life, and you can't have a
man in that condition. And everybody was holding back, including
the press, including the media.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
He's basically just saying everybody knew the entire time that
Joe Biden wasn't with it, and they were lying about
it intentionally.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
They were covering it up. The White House staff was
covering it up.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
The Democrat Party was covering it up, the mainstream media
was covering it up.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
These are all things that we all said.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
And openly knew at the time, and now we finally,
after the fact, have the evidence.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
You should be pissed off about that.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
And you may say, as I've seen some an X, say, well,
why does this matter.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Joe Biden's not the president anymore. Let's just put it
behind us.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Right, we knew he wasn't capable, and we voted him out. Okay,
that's a fair point. Here's why it does matter. This
guy was the president. We were told that this guy
was making decisions for the country, but he clearly wasn't right.
So who was who was running the show? Who was
in charge of the country. That's important. These were four
(36:33):
of the worst years in American history, just in terms
of the general ease of life for all of America.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
We had a rough time.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Inflation was out of control, People were dying because of
the border crisis. They were being murdered if not, you know,
overdosing on drugs that were brought across the border that
would not have been there if it wasn't for the
decisions that we were told Joe Biden was making. Joe
Biden wasn't making any of those decisions. If you can
watch that video and tell me, oh, yeah, this is
(37:01):
the guy making major national security choices.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
No he wasn't. No, he wasn't, and you know he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
It's a boldface lie, as my mother always calls them,
bold face live.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Here's why all that matters.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
When a politician makes a terrible bad choice, you hold
them to account at the ballot box. Right If Joe Biden,
who ended up getting held account at the ballot box,
was not the person making those choices, that means the
person who did make those choices has yet to be
held account, be it at the ballot box or anywhere else.
Who is making those choices where they staffers inside Joe
(37:35):
Biden's administration and they're now out that's good. Or are
they kind of the deep state entrenched people who have
been working at kind of the upper to mid levels
of the different bureaucracies. Was it the guy's wearing brass
and playing politics at the Pentagon that were making these choices?
Who was running the country, Because we know they did
a bad job of it, we need to make sure
(37:57):
they're not in a position to do that bad of
a job. Ever, Again, if it's just Joe Biden, great,
we've done that, we handled it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
But it wasn't just Joe Biden.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
That demonstrates that it was not Joe Biden making those choices.
We need to get to the bottom of that. This
isn't something we can just sweep under the rock and say, oh, well,
that happened, but now we're done. We need to figure
out who made these choices, and we have got to
get them out of government permanently. And listen, I know, I,
as much as anybody else, want to just kind of
ignore the Biden administration and just kind of pretend it
(38:31):
didn't happen, move on, move past it.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
But listen, we can't.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
We cannot forget the fact that for four years, we
had no idea who was running the country. All right,
That's all I've got for you. But listen, Hey, Wednesday,
the Next Gen Report. Wherever you get your podcasts, there'll
be a fresh episode. Also x Underscore Ethan B.

a pleasure to be with you once again.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Check me out on X Underscore Ethan Buchanan, b U
C H A N A N. Stay up to date
on everything. I'm on X way more than I should be.
I spend way too much of my day on X.
You can benefit from that, you can learn from that.
I post good stuff. I repost good stuff. So check
me out there. And of course we've got the podcast
(00:52):
that I encourage you to follow. We do another Wednesday
episode as well. That's always a good time. So there's
a lot to this show, and I want you guys
to get involved. I want this to kind of become
a little community. I think that would be nice. All right,
let's dig in to it, shall we. We have got
quite a lot to talk about today. This has been
a very busy week, So I apologize in advance if
(01:12):
the show tonight seems a little bit hectic, seems a
little bit all over the place, it's just because I'm
trying to get to quite a bit right. And that's
one of the downsides of only having one hour with
you guys. So that's why I encourage you again to
go check out the ex and you know, the podcast
on Wednesday, just because there's more stuff going on there
and I just I don't have the time that I
(01:34):
would like to have in order to talk about everything
here tonight, So go look for those other pieces of content.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It's all good. Let's talk about Texas.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
We have, of course, had a number of issues in
this House this session, the Texas House this session, and
I've talked with a couple of different representatives about this.
I've actually talked with a lot, but you've only heard
a few if you didn't catch it. A couple of
weeks ago, I did an interview with state Representative Brian Harrison.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's up on x you can go find it there.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It's also up on the podcast, and we just kind
of talked a lot about the fact that the House
of Representatives in Texas even though it is a strongly
majority Texas House, almost a supermajority in the Texas House
of Republicans, it's run by the Democrats. That's because about
half of those Republicans and that what should be a
Republican supermajority, are more than willing to just kind of
(02:24):
vote and work with the Democrats on whatever they want.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Right.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's kind of that Republican in name only, that rhino group,
you know, the neocons or whatever term you want to
throw on them, that's them.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
That's the perfect example of them.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
You've got about thirty Republicans that will reliably vote with
the Democrats whenever the Democrats want them to on anything.
So the Democrats get the speaker they want, and that
means they get the bills through that they want. That
means they get the committee appointments that they want. The
Speaker of the House is a very important position. And
so if the speaker is elected by Democrats and is
indebted to those Democrats, even if he has an R
(03:00):
next to his name, he doesn't have to vote Republican,
he doesn't have to act like a Republican. And what
we've seen is that has not happened. The Republican speaker
that the people of Texas elected to go to the
House and then was elected to service speaker by those
representatives might as well be a Democrat. He has not
operated as a Republican and you're going to quite literally
(03:21):
pay for that.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
We've had a lot of things.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
That were top priorities for the state Republican Party just
not get done in the Texas House this session. And
it's not quite over yet, but it might as well
be because we've already passed the deadline for the House
to pass House bills. So if a bill is filed
by a representative in the Texas House and it didn't
get passed already, it's not going to be.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
That's it. It's over. Something we have really not.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Seen from the Texas House is meaningful property tax reform.
Now they'll try to kind of scoop past that. They'll
talk about some of the things that they did do,
and they'll want you to be super excited about that,
but the fact of the matter is you're still going
to be paying out your nose for your property tax.
Here's Greg Abbott talking about, oh look, how great it
is that I just signed a joint resolution to put
a constitutional ban on capital gains tax in Texas.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Take a listen to this.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
Hi, this is Governor Greg Abbott and I am about
to sign a joint resolution that will constitutionally ban a
capital gains tax in the state of Texas.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
And then he signs it, voters will vote on this
to ensure that we're not going to have a capital
Texas instead of Texas.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
The next tax law that I will sign will be
a tax saw to reduce your property.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Taxes in Texas. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
See, we don't want a reduction of property taxes in Texas.
And even if we do get one, it's going to
be completely offset by the fact that the Texas House
the state will lower the property taxes and then the
county will bump them back up again. Because remember that's
where most of your property taxes are coming from. It's
from your cities and your counties. Now, there was bills
(05:00):
kind of put before the Texas House and the Texas
Senate as well that would have said, hey, no, the
counties can only raise your property taxes so much. We
have to cramp down on how much local jurisdictions can
raise property taxes because if you're not paying that much
property tax to the state. But the county can still
come take your home because you haven't paid their property taxes.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Well, then you haven't done much anyway. Now.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Michael quinn Sullivan with the Texas Scorecard pointed out on
ex that this capital gains tax ban actually does not
address property.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Tax at all.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
And I don't think a lot of people understand this.
Capital gains tax and property tax are the same thing, right,
because what property tax is saying. They're saying your home
is worth this much, so you have to pay this
percentage of that value to the state.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
That's how property taxes work, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
But you may have bought your home for fractions of
that cost, right because property just go up in value.
Homes do go up in value. We know that to
be true. So that's essentially capital gains, right, is capital
gains tax. That's the state or the government looking and saying, hey,
you have you know X amount of money in stocks.
Your stocks are worth this much, so we're going to
tax you on the value of that stocks. Well, you
(06:11):
may say, hold on a minute, I haven't sold those stocks.
I don't have that money. All I have is pieces
of paper that say I own x amount of a
company that's not actually worth anything in literal terms, like
that's not currency, but they're going to try to tax
you on that anyway. That's capital gains tax. A property
tax is the exact same thing. Hey, I don't have
four hundred thousand dollars in the bank. I just have
(06:34):
a piece of property that some goober from the county
told me is worth four hundred thousand dollars. And now
you're telling me to pay you know, two hundred thousand
dollars because I have to pay fifty percent property taxes.
I'm exaggerating. That's not the actual number. I'm trying to
make a point here. That's the situation that we have
going on. People at the county level here in Harris
County is a big problem. They keep jacking up your
(06:55):
property taxes. So the state will say, hey, we'll give
you discounts on the property taxes that we as the
stack charge you. But the county is still screwing people
out of house and home, and nobody is doing anything
about that.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Nobody.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Now next year, campaigns are gonna start getting underway because
we have an election season, So all these state representatives
are gonna start telling you, hey, I worked really hard
to reduce your property taxes. Here's what I want you
to do when they do that. When they come home
and say, hey, I'm sorry your property taxes are still
so high. Send me back to Austin and I'll fix
it this time. What I want you to do is
I want you to ask that person when the speaker
(07:29):
vote came up, who did you vote for? Did you
vote for Dustin Burrows to be the speaker even though
he lost the GOP caucus nomination to be the Speaker
of the House. And they're either gonna say yes, or
they're gonna say no, or they're gonna avoid the question.
If they don't say no, don't vote for that person.
All right, we got a great show coming up.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Stay to him. We'll be right back. This is the
Next Gen Report on AM nine to fifty KPRC.
Speaker 3 (08:20):
All righty, welcome back the Next Gen Report with me
Ethan Buchanan. If you're listening on the iHeartRadio, if you
have that little talkback mic there, you can click on that.
You can record thirty seconds. It goes right to me.
You can say anything you want. I want to hear
your feedback specifically on this. You can also reach out
to me on Twitter at Underscore Ethan Buchanan buch A
(08:43):
n An.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Here's the reason I'm telling you this.
Speaker 3 (08:45):
I want to get your thoughts on this because this
is a complicated topic. Foreign policy is very complicated and
there's not really one right answer oftentimes right. But I
want to ask you this and feel free to disagree
with me on this. I encourage it. I want to
have an actual discussion. I want people to kind of
bounce ideas back and forth. What do you think America's
(09:07):
role in the world is? Right, there's basically two schools
of thought when it comes to foreign policy, and there's
really more than that. But this is where it kind
of boils down to. Right, you're either a kind of isolationists.
You don't want anybody to interact with us, you don't
want to interact with everybody else. Just America is going
to do America in America and whatever else goes on,
(09:28):
it's not our business, all right. Then there's also the like, hey,
we need to be stepping up and making sure there's
order around the world, democracy, freedom, and liberty for everybody.
We have to be doing that because we have the
military strength and might and principles to do it, go America,
bring freedom to everybody.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Which of those is correct?
Speaker 3 (09:48):
It's hard to know for sure, right, I don't think
there is one right answer, and I definitely don't think
it's either one of those. I kind of tend to
fall somewhere in the middle. Right, I think we should,
in my opinion, kind of endeavor to stay out of
wars as much as possible, especially wars that aren't directly
related to us, Like if two countries have a problem
with each other and it doesn't really matter to us
(10:10):
at all, I don't think we should be involved in that.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Right.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
I don't want to go die for another country. I'll
die for my country if I have to, but I
don't want to die for another country. By that same token,
we don't live in a vacuum, right If America is
not involved in something, something else is going to be
involved in something, or someone else is going to be
involved in something.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
So that's another concern you have to weigh.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
You have to take those two sides, and you have
to find the balance there, right between isolationism and interventionism.
For too long, I think after nine to eleven we
got way too interventionists.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
And obviously nine to.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
Eleven was kind of a moment to look at that
and say, Okay, have we been two isolationists?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Do we need to be more involved here?
Speaker 3 (10:48):
I think the pendulum ended up swinging a little bit
too far in that direction, and as a result, we
have been way too involved in a lot of different
countries for a very long time, in a way that
I don't necessarily think has benefited us.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Right.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
I mean, we've had little advantages here and there, But
I mean, we've been nation building in the Middle East
for what twenty thirty years?
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Almost?
Speaker 1 (11:09):
What do we have to show for it? Not very much.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
We walked out of Afghanistan and the Taliban just took
right back over, so we weren't able to set up
a functional government that was able to operate without us.
The moment we left, the whole thing caved in on itself.
So was that really a good use of our taxpayer
dollars and of the lives of American citizens. I would
submit to you that no, it wasn't. That's not a
knock on the people who serve there. Obviously, those people
(11:33):
are heroes and should be treated as such. That's a
knock on the politicians and the brass and the Pentagon
in Washington, d C. Who took them for granted and
wasted their service and sacrifice, right, because what do we
have to show for that?
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Again? Nothing?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
So I think a lot of people are starting to
wake up to the fact that, you know, we should
be focusing on us.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
We need to make sure that we're taking care of
us first.
Speaker 3 (11:57):
And if that means we need to get involved in
some com flicks because we have to, then sure, okay,
go for it. But if we don't have to, if
we can focus on America and just be Americans and
make sure America is wealthy and protected, we don't need
to go nation building. We don't need to make sure
that every nation has a democracy. We don't need to
make sure that everybody has the same rights we do.
(12:19):
Wouldn't it be nice if everybody did have those same rights?
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Sure, that would be great. Is that a realistic thing
to push for?
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Not?
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Really? Is that a good use of American lives and
tax payer dollars?
Speaker 2 (12:29):
No?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Donald Trump actually made this point on his Middle East trip.
He did a four day tour of a bunch of
Middle Eastern countries. He spent a lot of time in
the United Arab Emirates. He went to Qatar and at
one of these events he was at, he was speaking
at I believe it was like an investor's conference in
the UAE. He made this points like, for too long
we have been trying to, you know, nation build and
(12:52):
make everybody look like America, and we need to just
focus on making America look like America. And we're not
going to be doing that anymore.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Tagoism.
Speaker 6 (13:02):
In recent years, far too many American presidents have been
afflicted with the notion that it's our job to look
into the souls of foreign leaders and use US policy
to dispense justice for this since they loved using our
very powerful military, and now it's really the most powerful
(13:22):
it's ever been. We just are getting a budget approof
one trillion dollars, highest budget we've ever had in history
for military, one trillion dollars, and we're getting the greatest missiles,
the greatest weapons, and you know, I hate, I hate
to do it, but you have to do it because
we believe in peace through strength. You have to have
(13:43):
the strength otherwise bad things could happen. But hopefully we'll
never have to use any of those weapons. Seems to
be an awfully big waste of money. You're never going
to use them, but hopefully we'll never have to use them,
because the destructive power of some of those weapons are
like nobody see before. I believe it is God's job
(14:03):
to sit in judgment, my job to defend America and
to promote the fundamental interest of stability, prosperity, and peace.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
That's what I really want to do.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I like this outlook, I really do, because he's not
saying let's be a weak nation. He's saying, let's be
a very powerful nation that keeps to ourselves.
Speaker 1 (14:24):
Right. I want to paint you this picture.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Imagine you're in like an old West saloon and you
see an old like grizzly guy who's got, you know,
a gray beard and whatnot. And he's got a big
old revolver on his hid. But he's sitting in the
very back of the saloon. He's drinking his drink, he's
mining his business. They're not talking to him. He's not
talking to them. Everybody knows he can kill everybody in
that room real quickly because he's been a gun slinger forever.
(14:48):
He's the best gun slinger in the business. But he's
not starting trouble. So whatever could happen in the bar,
he's in the very back of the bar, he's drinking
his drink, and there could be a big old bar fight.
Everybody could go nuts. But until you slam somebody into
his table, he's not gonna get involved. Until you not
go over his drink, he's not gonna get involved. America
needs to be that.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Guy, right.
Speaker 3 (15:09):
We should have the biggest, most powerful military in the world,
and we do.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
We should maintain that.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
We should have the most lethal force of soldiers that
human history has ever seen, and we should endeavor to
not use it ever unless absolutely necessary.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
Unless absolutely necessary.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
We should be the people that say, hey, you want
to make a deal with us, we want to do
trade with us.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
You want to come.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Get a piece of our wealth and our protection, but
do not cross us, and we won't cross you. You
can have your government, you can have your policies, that's
for you. Governments are answerable to their people, not the
United States of America. If your government crosses us, now
you're answerable to us. Now you've tipped over my drink
at the bar, and we're gonna have a problem. But
(15:55):
if there's two guys having an argument over poker on
the other side of the room that doesn't involve us.
We have no reason to stand up from our table
go over there and risk ourselves to get involved in
the discussion of two hundred people that have nothing to
do with us. That has been our foreign policy for
a long time. We need to start asking ourselves, why
what have we gotten out of that? Has that worked
(16:15):
out for us? No, it hasn't. It's not our job
to rescue everybody. It's not our job to be the
global savior. It's not our job to be the world police.
We police our goods. We police our country. We use
our navy to make sure our ships with our goods
can travel back and forth. If you touch our shipping,
will hurt you because we have to defend our stuff.
(16:37):
But if you're minding your business and you let our
cargo ships go past, we won't bother you. You can
be a dictatorship and we won't bother you. That's your
people's problem. If you're you know, genociding people, We have
refugee programs. As long as those people will be of
benefit to the United States, they're welcome to come here
and become Americans. But we're not going to go over there.
Let countries be answerable to their own people, not the
(17:00):
United States of America. Now again, I recognize that situations
may vary, we may enter into different circumstances, and that
kind of has to change, that outlook has to change.
But as of right now, that seems like a decent
way to operate. I'm kind of with Trump on this one.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
Again. There's a balance to be struck, obviously, but let's.
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Kind of operate with that as the baseline, right, rather
than interventionism being the baseline, let's start with how can
we stay out of global conflicts rather than how can
we get into global conflicts? Now, listen, I recognize you
may disagree with me on that. I encourage that. I
want to hear why you disagree, So use that talkback, Mike,
reach out to me on X. You know where to
(17:38):
find me, Underscore Ethan Buchanon. Let me know what you think,
let me know if you disagree. Let's have a discussion
about this topic. I want to know what y'all think
about this. All right, we got another segment coming up,
stay to and when.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
We right back.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
All right, let's talk about the UK.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
Something very interesting is going on over there, they're kind
of waking up to the same things that we've been
waking up to over the last kind of ten years,
since twenty fifteen when Trump announced.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
He was running for office.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
We have too much immigration of people that are not
assimilating to American culture or over there to UK culture,
which is very similar but slightly different because they're British
and we're better than them. All that to say, for
a long time, they've been kind of starting to notice
the same stuff that we Americans noticed, and that's like, Hey,
we have got to get a handle on who's coming
into our country and why and when and where. Right
(18:53):
that should be the case for every single country. Now
here's why this matters in the UK. The UK is
a very historic part of the Western world. Right, everybody
knows that the West is important. Because we just had
a whole discussion about foreign policy in the last segment.
If you missed it, tune in on Monday to the
podcast on the free iHeart Radio app and catch up.
But we talked about how America doesn't live in a vacuum.
(19:16):
We don't need to be involved in everything going on
everywhere with everybody, but we do need partners that share
our values around the world that we can trade with
that if God forbid, there's a big military conflict we
have to get involved in, we can, you know, get
involved in that together. We can partner in that, you know,
like World War Two. I think there's a lot of
good reasons that we got involved in World War Two,
(19:37):
and we could not have gotten involved in the way
we did if we didn't have our ally Great Britain
backing us. Up Right, the reason we've been able to
have such a close cooperative relationship with Great Britain is
because we have so many shared values and to a
certain extent, so much of a shared history.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Right.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Remember, the United States of America was part of the
British Empire, Right, so there is a good deal of
shared history. Basically all of English history prior to seventeen
seventy six is to a certain extent, American history as well,
because that's where we came from. So what are the
two reasons that you, as an American should care about
the kind of health and preservation of the Western world,
(20:17):
particularly in Europe. One, we practically need them in order
to trade with and when necessary, fight wars with. Right,
we need those close allies that share our values and
can work with us to preserve them. Secondly, it is
a beautiful culture, right. I think we can all acknowledge
the fact that a lot of these great monuments and
glorious buildings that have been built across Europe for all
(20:40):
of history are beautiful and amazing to look at and
just go see the fact that they're there, and we
know the culture, We know why they were built, we
know who built them, we know what the purpose of
them are. Many of these glorious, massive cathedrals that are
just amazing works of art, right, beautiful churches on top
(21:01):
of us needing the alliance of the nations where those
buildings are. It's nice to just have them, to go
and look at them. And a culture that does not
understand why these were built and who built them, and
doesn't see the value in them, doesn't seek to preserve them,
we will lose those things. We will lose these beautiful,
magnificent cathedrals, these ancient buildings that have been preserved because
(21:24):
the people there understand the value of them, because it's
part of their history and culture. If we lose those people,
those buildings, those beautiful works of art go next. And
then the thing that goes after that is our military
and strategic and economic alliances, which we do desperately need.
So that's why you, as an American should care about
immigration all over the world, not just in America. Obviously,
(21:47):
this is where we need to be dealing with the
problem because it affects us most immediately here. Obviously, we
need to make sure before anything else, our country, our culture,
our beautiful monuments are preserved, and then we should be saying, hey,
at least keep an eye on what's happening in Europe.
So that's what we're gonna do in this segment. We're
gonna keep an eye on what's happening in Europe. First
of all, let me give you an idea of what
(22:08):
is going on in the UK, in Great Britain. First
of all, they have, as we do, a huge immigration crisis.
These are people coming from third world countries into the
UK for handouts by the millions.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
All right.
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Many of these people are Muslim people, which means they
do not share the same values as European Christians. They
do not share the same history and heritage, all right.
So that's red flag number one, and these people are
not willing to integrate.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
They aren't.
Speaker 3 (22:33):
They're going there for handouts, not to become good citizens.
We've talked about this before. What does a country need
from immigrants, people that are willing to assimilate and provide
for themselves. That's not what we have here. Take a
listen to this guy in Britain. He's an immigrant from
somewhere else, probably Africa, some third world country, and he's
talking to this British reporter and he's just saying, I
want people to give me things. I came here, Give
(22:55):
me a house, give me everything I need. That's a problem,
not the type of people you want coming into your country.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Take a listen.
Speaker 7 (23:02):
I should English people pay for you to have a house?
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Ah? Maybe the give me?
Speaker 1 (23:15):
How that?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
Give me anything I need to give me? Just give it? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (23:22):
Why because it's people.
Speaker 3 (23:24):
Because people ain't gonna it's perfect.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
Oh so you think we're so we're well, we think
we're all with you think we're all rich people.
Speaker 3 (23:32):
People in England are perfect. Just give me everything. Okay,
Well that's ridiculous. I'm sure by his third world country standards,
everybody looks rich, right, but we all know we're not
all rich, right, I'm sure. I to some guy in
a third world. Look rich, I have a good apartment
in a nice part of the city. I live in
the best city in the world, and I'm able to
(23:53):
provide for myself comfortably. I'm not rich, but I'm doing
all right, Right. I don't have the capacity to make
sure everybody in the world can live at that same
level of luxury. And what happens is everybody goes down
when you try to even that out right. That's the
big problem with communism. It doesn't make everybody rich. It
makes everybody poor except the few people at the very
(24:14):
top of the government.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Those people are rich. It's the same concept here.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
If this guy's coming in and saying everybody needs to
just give me money, everybody just give me, give me
a house, give me what they need. Okay, If you
start putting that burden on everybody, everybody's going to become
the third World.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
We don't want that.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
We don't want that here in America, and we don't
want that for our friends across the pond. So obviously
that's a problem for the UK and their people have
started to notice. They just had a big election. That
was a main focal point issue of the election was, hey,
we have got to solve this immigration crisis. We have
got to start getting these people out of here because
they don't need to be here. They're not of any
benefit to us. They're a drag on our system and
(24:51):
they don't share our values. They've got to go now.
Ironically enough, if you actually say that online in England,
you can likely get thrown in jail for it. They
have no freedom of speech and what I just said
could be like a racist hate crime in the UK
just for saying it on the air. And the British
government has been kind of protecting this crisis.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
They've allowed the crisis to happen. If you speak out
against it, you go to jail.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
Now.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I don't know what Trump did to Keir Starmer, the
British Prime Minister, but on a dime, he has completely
flipped on this issue. And I think it's worthwhile pointing
out because if Keir Starmer is being legitimate here and
is actually going to solve this problem, that's great news
for England and of course great news for US because
we want our allies to be safe in healthy countries.
But even if he's just lying through his teeth about
(25:36):
wanting to solve this problem, that's pretty notable as well.
So we all know Kir Starmer had this big meeting
with Trump and then they came to a trade agreement
and they announced that Kiir Starmer was on the phone.
We had a big press conference in the Oval Office.
It was great. Everybody who's clapping hands, hugging, smiling, It
was amazing. And now Keir Starmer over the week has
just gone completely like radical far right on immigration. So
(26:00):
he tweeted out, I know you're angry about immigration. I
get it, Mark my words. I will take back control
of our borders. That means cutting immigration, ending the use
of asylum hotels, ramping up our efforts to stop small
boat crossings. We will smash the people smuggling gangs at source.
That's great news if he means it. If he means it,
I don't know if he means it. We'll have to
(26:21):
wait and see. He also did a kind of press
conference where he announced that all of a sudden, the
British government is going to start protecting its borders. Take
a listen.
Speaker 7 (26:29):
Migration is part of Britain's national story. We talked last
week about the great rebuilding of this country after the war.
Migrants were part of that and they make a massive
contribution today and you will never hear me denigrate that.
But when people come to our country, they should also
commit to integration, to learning our language, and our system
(26:51):
should actively distinguish between those that do and those that don't.
I think that's fair. Equally, Britain must compete for the
best talent in the world in science and technology, in healthcare.
You can't simply pull up a drawbridge, let nobody in
and think that's an economy that would work. That would
hurt the pay packets of working people without questions. Put
(27:15):
At the same time, we do have to ask why
parts of our economy seem almost addicted to importing cheap
labor rather than investing in the skills of people who
are here and wants a good job in their community.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
I mean, he sounds a lot like Donald Trump here.
He's saying, listen, we obviously want to compete for the
best holler around the world.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
That makes sense.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
You want your country to have the best people, but
you want those people to come in and integrate, and
you also don't want to forsake the people you have
in your country already, the people that are already your citizens.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
That makes perfect sense.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
He also tweeted out, for too long Britain has been
addicted to cheap overseas labor, while one in eight of
our young people aren't in education, employment or training. And
putting our young people first, investing in skills they need,
and ending our dependence on foreign labor, that's a good
thing for England.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
That's great. He went on to post.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
Foreign criminals have no right to be in Britain. We've
removed over three thy five hundred since July, sixteen percent
more than the last year of the Tories. And that's
just the start. We've already returned over twenty four thousand
people with no right to be here, and I won't
stop there. Settlement in the UK is a privilege that
has earned, not a right. He's saying all of the
right things. Let's see if his actions match up. Let's
(28:21):
see if he actually acts on what he's tweeting out.
But he's saying the right things there, and this should
all be common sense. Listen, it's great to have cultural exchange.
It's great to go visit other countries and learn about
their culture and their history and what makes them great and.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Beautiful and unique.
Speaker 3 (28:37):
If you open all your borders and a lot of
people from the Third World to bring their own culture
and then destroy your culture and the structural integrity of
your nation. You lose all of that. All right, Let's
all of us have separate, distinct, beautiful, secure cultures and countries.
I think that's a good idea. All right, stay to him.
We got one more segment coming up. This is the
next Gen report. All right, let's close things out by uh,
(29:22):
let's talk about Joe Biden. I know I hate to
keep bringing him up, but it is important. He was
the president for four years. That matters.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
All Right.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
We are now getting more and more evidence that this
guy was dead the entire time. He was dead the
whole time he was president of the United States, and
this is becoming completely undeniable. So we're all familiar with
her report, right, So, remember Donald Trump had his house
mar A Lago rated because he had documents that he
(29:53):
may or may not have been supposed to have that case.
I don't know where that ended up going, but he's
the president now, so it doesn't matter. Basically, they say
Donald Trump had secure documents in a place he should
not have had secure documents. Then we find out, hey,
Joe Biden also had secure documents in a place where
he shouldn't have had secure documents from the time where
(30:14):
he was in the White House, from when he was
vice president. So that's a problem too. So in order
to appear impartial, because MAGA was pissed off because you
rated the former president's house with stacked to the teeth
FBI agents and whatnot, obviously people were upset about that.
So just for the purpose of saying, oh, no, we
take this very seriously when everybody does it, not just
(30:35):
Donald Trump, will interview Joe Biden about it as well.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Now he was the president at the time.
Speaker 8 (30:39):
Right.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
What I'm about to plague you is audio of Robert Herr,
who's an investigator, asking Joe Biden about these documents, and
Joe Biden just caves in on himself.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Take a listen to this.
Speaker 8 (30:53):
Drea Chambers, Road and work doctors to Biden or life
shot were looking where did you keep papers that really
had to those things that you were actually working?
Speaker 9 (31:16):
Well, I don't know, I don't know it.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Twenty seventeen eighteen.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Down here.
Speaker 9 (31:28):
Just remember in this time frame, my son is either
been deployed or is dying.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
And and so if it was. And by the way,
there were still a lot of people at the time when.
Speaker 9 (31:53):
I got out of this and that were encouraging me
to run in this period.
Speaker 1 (32:02):
Where did that come from?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
All the president? Uh No, I'm not being there, not
a mean thing you said.
Speaker 9 (32:07):
Man, you just thought that she had a better shot
but winning the president that I did. And so I hadn't.
I hadn't at this point, even not a band. I
hadn't walked away from the idea that I might run
for office again. You know ifire Grant again be running
for president.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
And uh and so what was happening though? When one
boat die? Uh would grab a made thirty thirty years
in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
When the twenty fifteen and died May twenty fifteen, think
it's twenty fifteen or eat.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
That much of the months or when he goes in.
That's right, mister president, because and what's happened in the
meantime is that uh.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
As a.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Come on, get there, Joe.
Speaker 9 (33:02):
Get selected in November twenty seventeen, six sixteen, twenty sixteen.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
All right, so.
Speaker 9 (33:13):
Twenty seventeen, that's when you left office. In January seventh, Oka,
but Fashino Trump.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Has sworn in Okay, I don't even know what he's
talking about anymore. I have no clue what he's talking
about anymore.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
Remember what the.
Speaker 3 (33:35):
Original question was, where did you keep the papers that
were related to things you were actively working on? He's
been rambling for over a minute and a half talking
about God only knows what. He can't remember where his
son died, which that's kind of a big deal. You
should remember when your son died if you're still mentally capable.
If you're a very old man who's kind of feeble
(33:56):
in the mind, as old people often are, it makes
sense that you would forget something like that and have
to kind of work that back into your brain. But
if you're supposedly mentally well enough to be the president
of the United States, something as significant as the death
of a child should be something that you should be
able to recall.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
But it's not.
Speaker 3 (34:15):
Again, his first answer was, I don't know where I
kept those documents, and then he went for a minute
and a half about a bunch of things that have
nothing to do with the question. He was asked, does
this sound like a guy who's healthy, Does this sound
like a guy who kind of knows what's going on?
He's got his mind wrapped around all the various things
that you just have to have your mind wrapped around
(34:35):
in order to serve as president of the United States. No,
not even slightly. This sounds like a guy that needs
to be in a retirement home or you know, just
with his family. Hopefully he's got a family that's set
up enough to prepare and care for him, so he
doesn't have to really be in a retirement home. He
can just be with his family and they can care
for him. That's the ideal world. But that's where he
(34:56):
should be, not in the freaking White House, not in
front of cameras.
Speaker 1 (35:00):
This guy was not capable. We know that.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
Donald Trump on Air Force One actually commented on this.
He's like, I know people that are very old and
very mentally with it.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
Those people exist. Joe Biden was not one of those people.
Speaker 10 (35:14):
I know people that are eighty nine, ninety ninety two, ninety.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Three years old and are literally perfect. But Joe was
not one of them. And they did a lot of hiding.
Speaker 10 (35:24):
They were really playing games, and you know, you can't
do that. Our country is just said, you see, even
a thing like this, there's so many decisions for Vidians
and Vidians, but then you have even more important decisions,
you have decisions for life, and you can't have a
man in that condition. And everybody was holding back, including
the press, including the media.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
He's basically just saying everybody knew the entire time that
Joe Biden wasn't with it, and they were lying about
it intentionally.
Speaker 1 (35:51):
They were covering it up. The White House staff was
covering it up.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
The Democrat Party was covering it up, the mainstream media
was covering it up.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
These are all things that we all said.
Speaker 3 (35:59):
And openly knew at the time, and now we finally,
after the fact, have the evidence.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
You should be pissed off about that.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
And you may say, as I've seen some an X, say, well,
why does this matter.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Joe Biden's not the president anymore. Let's just put it
behind us.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Right, we knew he wasn't capable, and we voted him out. Okay,
that's a fair point. Here's why it does matter. This
guy was the president. We were told that this guy
was making decisions for the country, but he clearly wasn't right.
So who was who was running the show? Who was
in charge of the country. That's important. These were four
(36:33):
of the worst years in American history, just in terms
of the general ease of life for all of America.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
We had a rough time.
Speaker 3 (36:40):
Inflation was out of control, People were dying because of
the border crisis. They were being murdered if not, you know,
overdosing on drugs that were brought across the border that
would not have been there if it wasn't for the
decisions that we were told Joe Biden was making. Joe
Biden wasn't making any of those decisions. If you can
watch that video and tell me, oh, yeah, this is
(37:01):
the guy making major national security choices.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
No he wasn't. No, he wasn't, and you know he wasn't.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
It's a boldface lie, as my mother always calls them,
bold face live.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
Here's why all that matters.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
When a politician makes a terrible bad choice, you hold
them to account at the ballot box. Right If Joe Biden,
who ended up getting held account at the ballot box,
was not the person making those choices, that means the
person who did make those choices has yet to be
held account, be it at the ballot box or anywhere else.
Who is making those choices where they staffers inside Joe
(37:35):
Biden's administration and they're now out that's good. Or are
they kind of the deep state entrenched people who have
been working at kind of the upper to mid levels
of the different bureaucracies. Was it the guy's wearing brass
and playing politics at the Pentagon that were making these choices?
Who was running the country, Because we know they did
a bad job of it, we need to make sure
(37:57):
they're not in a position to do that bad of
a job. Ever, Again, if it's just Joe Biden, great,
we've done that, we handled it.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
But it wasn't just Joe Biden.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
That demonstrates that it was not Joe Biden making those choices.
We need to get to the bottom of that. This
isn't something we can just sweep under the rock and say, oh, well,
that happened, but now we're done. We need to figure
out who made these choices, and we have got to
get them out of government permanently. And listen, I know, I,
as much as anybody else, want to just kind of
ignore the Biden administration and just kind of pretend it
(38:31):
didn't happen, move on, move past it.
Speaker 1 (38:32):
But listen, we can't.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
We cannot forget the fact that for four years, we
had no idea who was running the country. All right,
That's all I've got for you. But listen, Hey, Wednesday,
