George Brunemann - RestoreLiberty

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Sixty six here if about their CD talks station Our
Political Power with George brenhaman mister politics himself. He is
in the know on all matters political and we can
talk energy policy and we can talk border security.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
George, good to have you in the studio. Thanks, Brian,
been looking forward to it. Yeah, I have too.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
I enjoy our conversations and always appreciate your common sense
and your wisdom on these matters.

Speaker 2 (00:24):
What's your inclination?

Speaker 1 (00:25):
We were talking a little bit just the off mic
there before we came on about some of the problems
that Harris is having because she's sending people out into
the world or they are going out into the world
in an effort to speak on her behalf and not
really making a good point on her behalf. You know,
you had the Barack Obama issue the other day talking

(00:46):
down to black men, which I thought was rather offensive.
And you know, I don't know that I'm allowed to
express offense on behalf of black men, but if I
were a black man, I, like so many that came
out after his comments were offended and don't don't lecture
rightly so rightly so. And then you had Bill Clinton
on the border situation, basically saying, hey, well, had everybody

(01:08):
been vetted, then you know this, Uh, these murders wouldn't happen.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
And it's it's almost like they're trained to sabotage her
at this point.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Well, yeah, definite on that route, because you know, Bill Clinton,
I don't know where he is cognitively speaking. I know
he's gauged a lot, but he still seems like he's there.
But he started using this murder as an illustration Lake
and Riley about you know, had that guy been properly vetted,
he wouldn't have gotten to the United States, And he
was sort of using that as an argument that you know,

(01:40):
Trump sabotaged the immigration bill that it was bipartisan, and
I got all kinds of problems with claiming that bill
is bipartisan since six Democrat senators voted against it. But
more fundamentally, that bill wasn't even introduced until a year
or more after that murderer got into the country. So
on whose watch was the thingailure to vet?

Speaker 2 (02:01):
Well?

Speaker 3 (02:01):
And it was entirely their strategy. Did not vet these people.
The Democrats just wanted to open the border out. You
can take your reasons why they want you know, low
cost labor or do they want more voters. Clearly what
we're seeing now in Virginia where they're trying to force
them to leave illegals on the voter roles in Virginia

(02:23):
that it's got to be part of their strategy. Department
of Justice suit them. I don't understand illegal for someone
to vote in election if they're not a citizen. Yet
our Department of Justice is going after the state for
trying to do just that, get non citizens who have
falsified their citizenship status right off the ballot or off
the vote rather well. And so the whole strategy seems

(02:45):
to be falling apart for him. So you got, like
you say, Barack Obama, mister Hussein himself goes to an
audience of young black men and basically chastise them for
not supporting, you know, a black woman, and it's like
that's her number one qualification. Now, I agree, she was
a DEI hire, she was a black female, which was
the definition of what Biden wanted for a VP. But

(03:07):
to then chastise people and say, listen, you need to
vote for her because your skin looks like her skin,
and it just that's an enormously horrible reason to vote
for someone, and I think it came off really bad.
It's arrogant, and basically they're now looking a gett him
and said, you did nothing to help us. Why would

(03:27):
we support someone who's following your policies? And then just
what two days later, you got Bill Clinton standing in
front of an audience trying to get you know, the
the non urban vote because you wouldn't put Brock there,
and Bill Clinton in front of the black audience. So
he come, he said, wasn't Bill Clinton the first black president?

(03:48):
Remember those days? I've been trying to forget Bill Clinton
for years. He was sort of my introduction to how
I watched debate. So I was I was working for
General Electric at the time out in the deserts of Palmdale,
and it was the debates with Clinton, Bush and Ross Pureau.

(04:09):
Oh yeah, And I remember watching television and I had
to turn the sound off because I could tell immediately
by the tone of his voice Bill Clinton was lying
to every question. So then I turned the sound off
and I just watched, and his mannerisms, you could tell
he was making everything up on the fly. None of
it was true. And now when I can't watch debates

(04:29):
now for that very reason. You could just tell, like
Kamala without the bluetooth earings, I don't think she could
come up with an answer.

Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, it's just craziness that was.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Revealed in that when when she was talking to someone,
I got a live what was it.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
It's a live interview.

Speaker 1 (04:46):
Yeah, speaking to the person who's talking to her in
her ear through the earbud. It was rather revealing in
and of itself.

Speaker 3 (04:54):
So, but now you had Bill Clinton basically reinforcing Trump's
border policy by saying, you got to vet the these people.
You can't let twenty million people across the border. And
then you've got jd. Vance, who that guy is unbelievable.
His ability to come with a comeback quick immediately.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Yes, he has a very very very sharp mind when
it comes to responding to questions on the fly.

Speaker 3 (05:16):
Yeah, you shouldn't be worried about Venezuelan gangs. It only
took over a few hotel complexes. You hear yourself, You
hear what you just asked me. It's like, what one
of the worst criminal gangs in Venezuela has taken over
real estate in the United States of America, threatening the
lives of the people who live there, nothing to see her.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Yeah, and I've been to Aurora.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
I would never have guessed that that was a place
that had on a major population. But then again, we
would expect Springfield to have a major immigrant population either.
The whole what's going on now with the election just
seems to be such confusion. You've got CBS rearranging words

(05:57):
to try and make her look better. You've got her
surrogate's coming out and supporting Trump essentially with what they're saying.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Yeah, it is just so upside down right now.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
I don't see and Biden too, by the way, is
also not helping Kamala Harrison.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
Anyway, this is great. I've been talking to you, great stuff.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
I think that we know where that comes from. Me
and and Jill are just frankly pissed off of what
happened to him, So they're not willing to really go
real all in for for Kamala Harris. So I at
least understand that, you know, perhaps chip on the shoulder thing,
but you know that this is Baraco whis would be
Barack Obama's what third fourth term, right, and here he

(06:40):
is out there making these obnoxious statements to black men
because of course they're losing black male votes. And I think,
you know, honestly, George, part of that, I think is
this woke agenda regarding the LGBTQ thing and this whole
idea of men being able to play against women in sports.
The black men, at least the ones I've met throughout

(07:03):
my life, is you know, more traditional male type of
traditional male figures in other words, you know, some machismo
and tough and strong, and you know, I can handle it.
I can defend myself and you know, I'm looking out
for my women or whatever. But not I don't know
that many that are out marching in the street ands

(07:23):
LGBTQ plus parades. It's interesting. I mean, that community seems
to be.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
Fairly religious, they value their family, but yet somehow the
Democrats got this stronghold on them. And I was just
listening on the way into reports that you know, Trump's
making enormous inrows in that community.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
Exactly, and I think it's it's the policies. And of
course four years wasn't that long ago, George, and everybody remembers,
you know what it was like, and now we know
what it is like post COVID, and under the Biden
Harris administration, things just are not going really well, most
notably for folks you know, who aren't the elite, college
educated or making all kinds of money. Yeah, it's a

(08:04):
real diconomy to see that it's this close of a race.
When you know, gasoline's fifty percent higher, eggs or thirty
percent higher.

Speaker 3 (08:14):
You can't afford to go to the grocery store anymore, right,
it certainly you can't afford to shop at the edges,
you know, the fresh stuff right the boxes in the
middle with the sugar and the carbs and all that
fun stuff which we were talking about. Yeah, our diet,
but that stuff's cheaper, but none of it has gone
down in price, and it seems to be going up.
There's some mickey mouse going on with gas prices now,

(08:37):
I mean they were down below three bucks, then they
jump right back up to three forty.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Again.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
It's just nonsense. How do you vote for four more
years of that? Well, the answer it's baked into the
equation because she's not Trump, right, there's that much anger
and resentment or brainwashing, if I may be so bold,
of the general population who largely does not pay attention

(09:01):
to the minutia. But you know, they made such a
demon out of this man that you can't even say
his name out loud in certain circles without getting into
a fistfight almost. And it's normally people you would say
are intelligent. They normally I cannotstand him. So what we've been
doing with Restore Liberty dot Us. A couple of the

(09:22):
tricks we're doing is we created our own slate cards.
The slate cards don't use the word Republican anywhere, but
obviously everybody on the list as a Republican. But then
on the backside of it, we've put messages, handwritten messages.
I joked that we encrypted it so that the gen
Z can't read it.

Speaker 2 (09:38):
But hilarious.

Speaker 3 (09:42):
So the three messages we chose were taxes. They're coming
after your four to one k's, they're coming after your savings.
You know, they're going to be taxing taxes. I mean,
it's just crazy what they're trying to do. The second
message is inflation. You can't go to the grocery store
and not remember that, hey, hey, you know, prior to COVID,
this stuff was a lot cheaper a lot. And then

(10:04):
the third message is public safety, which here in Hamilton
County is an enormous deal. With Melissa Powers and Jim Neil,
they lose. I mean we're Detroit, where Chicago. We're gonna
bring the flag exactly. So, I mean what we're trying
to do is nowhere. I mean Trump's name on it,
but that's about it. There's no mention to Trump. And

(10:25):
when we talk to people now, my normal comeback is
you're not voting for Trump, you're voting to give Jdvans
four years of training because that boy is I say, boy,
he's young, he is intelligent, he's quick, he connects and
if you've watched his background on you read reading the
book or watching the movie.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
The guy came from nothing. Yeah, literally nothing.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
It's it's an American dreams story that we have to
keep alive. And I think he knows how, he understands it,
he knows how to get the people. So you're not
voting for Trump, you're voting for JD. And that boy
is gonna pick up after four years and run.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
And you're also voting presumably for a very very good cabinet.
I think Trump's cabinet makeup is going to be outstanding.
We can talk a little bit about that. Let's take
a break right now. Restore Liberty dot Us is where
you find Georgia and the crew. It's a good place
to stop off. Put it on your Bookmart list. We'll
be right back after I mentioned plum Type Plumbing my
favorite plumbers. They do plumbing right. It is plumbing done right,

(11:24):
and they live by that motto A plus the better
business viar.

Speaker 2 (11:27):
I always like to point that out.

Speaker 1 (11:28):
Twenty four hour day is seven day week emergency service,
so easy to schedule an appointment with plumb Type. I
go into the website where you can learn all about
all the different services they offer, and it is a
wide range of services, but easy to schedule appointment. I
had what I It wasn't an emergency, but when you
walk out in your front yard and your backflow valve
is spewing water all over the place, you got a
bit of a plumbing problem on your hands. So I

(11:49):
just made the appointment, just shut the water off to
the irrigation system, made the appointment online. They called me
back five minutes later. They wanted to know if it
was an emergency, so over to my place. The next
couple of days they fixed it in no time. Price
was absolutely right and as always, the very exceptional customer
service impressed me. Just very friendly to you and they're
good about communicating, letting you know when they're going to

(12:10):
be there. So for all plumbing issues for residents from
northern Kentucky all the way up to Daton, everywhere in between.
Kind of my friends at plumb Tight Plumbing done right online,
plumb Tight t te plumptight dot com. Five one three
seven two seven eighty four eighty three five one three
seven two seven tight.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
This is fifty five krc an iHeartRadio station.

Speaker 3 (12:31):
If you missed our twenty twenty four, if you've our
KRCD talk station and restore libity dot us, or you
find George Brenman and crew, Georgie and Citio.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
We're talking politics and uh we got a couple of
minutes to talk about potential cabinet and some of the
names I've heard would be outstanding in a Trump cabinet.
And you know, the cabinet is really really largely responsible.
It's great to have a president and you think he's
making the decisions. We know from the Biden administration that
is not the case. Somebody else's you know, working the
puppet strings and telling the puppet what to do. So

(13:00):
obviously Kamala Harris has her earbud is being fed information
and telling her what to say. She reads the matteleprompter
written down words by somebody else for her to read
out loud. So maybe it's a figurehead position. Maybe we're
just that point of recognition, but responsible for port foreign
policy the president is. But also who the president appoints

(13:20):
for the cabinet and some of the names and then
swirl around like, for example, I think Vivi Gramma Swimming
is brilliant and wouldn't he be great in a cabinet
position as well? Elon Musk not I don't enough Musk
is willing to put his you know, money making ventures
aside and actually beyond the cabinet. I sounded like he
was maybe in favor of it, but what a brilliant

(13:40):
guy he is, and wouldn't that be a benefit to say?

Speaker 3 (13:43):
Okay, I think the prospect of having Rfk Junior looking
at the health industry, Viveke looking at shutting down whole
sections of the government. I would take Viveke and put
him in charge of the DOE Department of Education, and
your job is to shut it down. And when you're
done with that, we're gonna put you over on AHHS.
And your job is to shut down a large portion

(14:03):
of that. I think that's his passion. I mean, there's
been a lot of talk about as if a Bak
going to go for Senate it as you know, for governor.
But if you hear him talk, his passion is shutting
down the administrative state. And I would love to see
him get like a year of experience doing that in
DC and then.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
Come and be our governor.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
I mean, that's a selfish reason, but boy, wouldn't that
be something.

Speaker 2 (14:24):
It sure would.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
But then you talk about Elon Musk. Here's a guy
that got upsets because freedom of speech was being stamped
down in the country and bought Twitter, proceeded to fire
eighty percent of them. It's now bigger and better than
ever with only twenty percent of the employees. And when
after you know, this first assassination attempt on Trump, he

(14:47):
looked at that and said, Okay, this is out of control.
I'm going to back Trump. And it's been just like
a rollercoaster for the sky after that. Did you see
his appearance at Butler. When he was on stage, just
jumping up and down. You can tell the guy's never
been in front of a political crowd before, and he
just speaks off the cuff. No teleprompter. I don't think
he could use one anyway. But he's the Da Vinci

(15:10):
of our times. This guy is brilliant. And let me
get a little bit nerdy with you. So I've been
a controls engineer forever. If you look at a rocket,
know what in their right mind would land it?

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Steading, standing up?

Speaker 3 (15:24):
I mean, if you think about it, if you're gonna
hold a broom, you hold it by the top and
let it hang down, which is what a parachute does.
You don't balance it upside down on your finger and
land it that way. He's like, well, wait a minute,
it's more efficient than we can move it around afterwards.
It's easy to move better. Yet we're gonna land it
right back where it started so that we could refuel

(15:44):
it and an hour later take off again. He just
looked at that problem and said, I can solve that problem.
I'm gonna do it this way. If I can get
this rocket to be reusable ten times a week, the
price goes down by a factor of ten.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah, and he just does it.

Speaker 3 (16:00):
Can you imagine how much waste he would find in Washington, DC?

Speaker 1 (16:05):
Exclamation point on the topic by George Browneman. We're gonna
pausibly be back with more conversation. It's six twenty five
right now, I fifty five k see de talk station.
I went from plumbing earlier. Now I get to go
to electric because Cullen Electric are great electricians. I've done
multiple projects at my house. Cullen c U l E
and Colin Electriccincinnati dot com where you find the website

(16:28):
and all the information about the teams that around locally
owned and operated. Andrew Cullen has assembled a fantastic group
of licensed electricians since nineteen ninety nine and a plus
with a better business bureau because they do great work
and they do it at a great price. Little projects,
big projects. The whole nine yards are well covered with
color and electric and ten year wiring warranty on everything.

(16:48):
It's like, you know, full warranty on what they do
for you. You have no worry something happens and it didn't.
Not even going to say that, because it's never gonna happen.
They're gonna be electric project right. They'll fix it right,
and you'll never have to rely on the ten year war,
although you get one anyway call on Electric Cincinnati dot
com fight. I'm online right there, Tom Brian said, how
can you give them a call for your appointment? Five

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Station six thirty at fifty five krc E Talks Station.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
The story Liberty dot Us George Brenneman in studio talking politics,
and I wanted to gravitate over. I was listening to
at least snippets of Donald Trump speaking in front of
that Economic Forum the other day and specifically gravitating towards tariffs.
Now they on the Economic Forum, at least the people
moderating it and others. Tariffs are terrible. They're terrible. They're terrible.

(18:33):
It's tit for tat. You put a tariff on some
product from some country, They're just gonna terriff for whatever
you try to sell them. So it's gonna be bad
for American businesses. Forty million American jobs depend upon exports,
and they're all gonna dry. If that was the argument,
I understand this arguments. Donald Trump's like, Nope, I believe
in tariff's. I think tariffs is the beautiful word in
the English language. The word tariff needs a marketing firm.

(18:55):
He's there, you go, but I and he then gravitated
toward automobile manufacturing in Mexico. And he said, you know,
the Detroit, Detroit's dead, and they keep talking about Detroit,
you know, growing again and rebuilding itself. He said, it's
never going to happen. The auto industry, you know, abandoned
Detroit and moved its plants down to Mexico. And he said,

(19:16):
I'll tell you what, if something's made in Mexico and
they try to ship it up here, I'll tax it
at one hundred two three hundred percent. I think even
said two thousand percent.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Whatever. He was just in a role right, Well, and
you got to take his you know, oh blov eating.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Well, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, And but but.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
He's got a point.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
So how much of what's going on in Mexico right
now is just China is using it as a staging
area so they don't ship fentanyl to Mexico. They ship
all of the precursors they make the fentanyl, ship it
to the United States. Well, they figured, okay, it works
for the drug trade, Let's do it with automobiles. Let's
build these enormous plants in Mexico so that we can

(19:56):
get around the fact that there's a terrif on Chinese plants,
but they're still Chinese plants, but they're in Mexico.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
The profit still goes to.

Speaker 3 (20:02):
The Chinese Communist perhaps absolutely, and they still get the
cheap labor down in Mexico. Ah See, there in lies
the challenge because I see that, you know, I saw
on the Wall Street Journal Ram Stilantis is planning on
expanding its factory complex in northern Mexico to build Ram

(20:24):
fifteen hundred pickups. And does that make any sense? They
don't sell any of those in Mexico or no, they
come back here. Yep, every one of them.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
So this is a slap in the face to the
Detroit autoworker who just came off a wildly successful contract
negotiation getting them a whole kinds of big salary increases.
Is this Stilantis working around the agreement they just gave
into the United Auto Workers? Listen, hell with you United
Auto Workers. Just make them in Mexico where there is
no EPA and there are no OSHA regulations and labor

(20:55):
happens to be a fraction of what it is here.
We'll still get our internal combustion engine RAM trucks. Donald Trump,
I think said yesterday during that Economic Forum he taxed
these or tariff these as well.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Right, And the problem is that the equations that govern
cost and price are kind of out of control. On
one side, if you go to China or Mexico and
you get expense low expense on your you know people there, right,
slave labor, slave slave labor. Whereas here we've got the
exact opposite problem. You got longshorreman that won a seventy

(21:27):
seven percent increase in their money. It's like, this is nuts.
That's why business is offshore in the first place. I
just find it incredibly interesting. The most American made cars
in the United States now are Honda and Toyota. I mean,
if you just go right up the road, that's where
my Honda was made. Over in Greensburg. They got a
couple of Toyota, same way. But they're non union plants

(21:49):
where the workers have input into the product. Whereas if
you go to Detroit or some of the other union shops,
you can't change a bolt or the head on a
screw without getting the union's approval. Well, why would you
do that. So we've got these competing things. But I
think the key point is with terrafts for starters, we
used to not have an income tax. All we had

(22:11):
were tariffs. That's how the United States was funded. And
now we're in the state where the thought of you know,
adding costs to goods that come from China is you know,
somehow anti free market. It's like, wait, wait, wait a minute,
you can't use free market in Chinese to say we're
not on the same playing field. No, but we have

(22:31):
to get to where competition matters, and so price comes
down because a competition.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
Quality goes up because of competition.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
And you can't be competitive when you are dealing with
countries that don't care about the environment, get their electricity
a lot cheaper, or they don't have to deal with
the Oshan regulations, plaintiffs litigation. I mean, we could go
on and on and on, but why would the company
go offshore to do this if they're real American companies.
But the concept of a true American in favor of America,
pro American company, I think that's gone way of the

(23:00):
DODO for most multinationals anyway, because they don't really care.
They're interested in a buck and it doesn't matter where
the buck is made, and it doesn't matter what the
politics of any given country are as long as they're
able to make the buck, they're not American interested countries anymore.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
Right, So, I mean, you've got this conflict going on
between you know, the the unions and the EPA. Between
those two, it's so infinitely more expensive to do it here.
You can't get labor that's adaptable and you know, intelligent,
and that can't get the EPA stuff passed.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
And I'm glad you mentioned that in this context because
part of the point Trump was making is all those
jobs will come here, and they were saying, no, no,
you're what you're gonna have, this is tit for tat.
They're going to raise the price of American imported goods
into their countries and that will reduce the amount of
goods flowing in, reduce the amount of jobs here. And
it's like, no, they'll just start making them here exactly.

(23:54):
But can that really be successfully accomplished in the face
of what we're talking about here, which is this outrageous
cause of to doing business because of the EPA and
right socia, et cetera.

Speaker 3 (24:03):
Here in Ohio, we're all thrilled about Intel coming in
town to build a semiconductor plant. You know why, there's
no semiconductor plants in the United States because you can't
get the chemicals into them to make the semiconductors because
of EPA rules.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
The main component is arsenic. It's a poison.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
But in the United States you have to have all
these regulations on how you handle this that it's just
too ridiculously expensive to build a semiconductor plant unless suddenly
you have the government funding it. So you got the
government giving you one money on one end and the
costs skyrocketing because of the EPA on the other.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Yeah, but they don't negate the EPA rules or give
a free pass.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
No, you will.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
You'll get the subsidies from government to build this plant
because we aren't competitive and able to build or compete
with Chinese building these plants. We'll give you a work
around for the EPA rules. They don't say that. They
just say, here's the money. The grant money, build the factory.
Will help you out, and then you'll have to deal
with all the regulatory challenges and environmental lawsuits that you
have to in court. So the key is from a
policy perspective, we're currently talking about tear of but the

(25:00):
other side of that is also going to strip away
all the regulations. I think between the two you can
bring back manufacturing. The other thing that people don't really
understand is the goods we do sell overseas. That proportion
of the total is fairly small. It is our market
is our market. The United States is still the biggest

(25:20):
market on the planet. Number two is China.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
They're not going to buy our stuff because they just
what they do is they bring it in reverse engineer
it and build it down the road. So China is
not a market really for us. The only way we
can succeed is the way of Apple, the way of Twitter,
the way of Musk. We have to innovate so far
in front of people that you can't get it anywhere else.
If Apple would bring their manufacturing back home, you think

(25:47):
Europe's not going to buy Apple phones.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
They have to. They're the state of the art.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
That you're right, But then we're going back to the
original challenge that you mentioned earlier is all the components
in the end Apple device carry pollutants and toxins that
need to be sourced from someplace, and the sourcing materials
are probably located in China somewhere well. Because we're not
allowed to build a mine here. You know, we got
too many environmental challenges standing in the way of us

(26:14):
tapping into our own resources.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
Well, we left Afghanistan, China moved right in. Why because
up in those mountains is a ton of lithium.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Yeah, well let them have a go out of the
Soviets failed, We failed, and we'll let the Chinese get
involved in a quagmire. Eight six thirty eight will continue

he solve your medical insurance issues its open rollment, you're

(26:42):
looking forward to those Affordable Care Act Obamacare plans, We'll don't.
Health insurance has complicated. Everybody's situation is different. There are
multiple options to choose from, so when planning health insurance
for you and your family, you need to consult an expert,
and that John Roman and the team had Covers since
he they've been helping folks get the right coverage at
the best rate for years. Their plans are available all
year round, not just during open enrollment that your business

(27:04):
has going on right now, and all outpatient services have
a zero dollar deductible.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
You heard that right.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
You choose your doctors in hospitals and it's thirty to
sixty percent lower cost than Obamacare. No, you don't believe me,
it's true. Let them figure it out for you. If
you pay for your own health insurance, you're uninsured, or
your employer coverage is too expensive. You give John on
the team a call. Experts with more than twenty years
experience five one three eight hundred two two five five.
That's five one three eight hundred call. You can start

on over there, George, moving over, I am a We
were talking about the auto industry generally speaking, and then

(28:17):
we can move over to ev production, which, of course
our administration is really pushing hard subsidies galore mandates on,
you know, emission standards, which are going to force people
into electric vehicles whether they want them or not. Saw
this article. Germans not happy with their electric vehicles. It's
a small sliver of the automobiles, but that's the direction.

(28:41):
Germany's going full board. They want to be completely internal
combustion engine free by was it twenty thirty five.

Speaker 2 (28:47):
Or something, Yeah, same as California.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
Yeah, but people aren't happy with them, and those who
bought previously electric vehicles are going back to internal combustion engines,
you know. And the elephant in the room for me
on this whole thing is how blank and dangerous they
are in terms of starting fires. And you can't put

(29:09):
them out. I mean, if you submerge them in salt water,
they'll blow up. They have a tendency to ignite spontaneously
combust It's like a drummer for spinal tap.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Yeah. The issue is the battery.

Speaker 3 (29:22):
So if you remember back the Samsung problem with their
one of their phones, their note, the problem was that
battery technology and just give you a little background. My
my last five years have been spent on EV modeling,
and I know in that industry with somebody who knows something.
So the problem you have is that in order to

(29:43):
make the battery smaller, they put the layers closer and
closer together. And that particular battery for Samsung was made
in China, and they didn't keep the tolerances. So as
soon as two layers touch, game's over. It overheats, and
once the lithium, you know, the lithium components catch fire,
you can't do anything about it. I was working on
a project to put hybrids inside of cherry pickers, and

(30:06):
this is ten years ago, twenty years ago. So we
had one of the early lithium ion batteries and I'm
up in the cafeteria and I look out in the
parking lot and the cherry pickers on fire.

Speaker 2 (30:16):
The lithium battery.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
It caught, and the fire Department's just surrounding it, watching
it because there's nothing you can do once it catches.
So from that perspective, you're crackt the lithium battery technology,
which is pretty much the only one you can use right.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
Now because of cost and density and stuff.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
But it has this issue when you try and make
it too small, it's going to catch fire. Now that
the vehicle itself, an electric vehicle is by far the
most efficient thing out there. It has less moving parts,
it's easier to control. You can get you can get
electric cars to do all kinds of crazy stuff. You've

(30:52):
seen the ones now, the crawl they park by just
literally going to side, anything about that. And I'm a
performance guy, like zero to sixty times in handling, they
win hands down.

Speaker 2 (31:02):
Have you ever driven a Tesla in ludicrous mode?

Speaker 3 (31:05):
No?

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Like, yeah, rip your face off.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
So the last I had a contract with, they brought
in every EV out there and I'll bunch of the hybrid.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
So I drove the Porsche version.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
I've driven Mercedes, and so the guy told me, no,
I'll take this Tesla. We're gonna put it in ludicrous mode.
It's literally called ludacris, he says. But when you do it,
when you accelerate, hold onto the steering wheel.

Speaker 2 (31:30):
And it took me. It took me a while to
get used to the vehicle in the first place.

Speaker 3 (31:35):
So then I did. I was on a straightaway entrance
ramp to a highway and I floored it. Holy cow,
that thing will put you back in your seat. So
electric through the charge pretty damn quickly too, exactly, especially
when it's thirty two degrees outside.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
Now, see another downside risk.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
And so here's the basic problem with evs that nobody
wants to talk about in the United States and most
of the world. The way you get your electricity is
by burning something.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
Yea.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
So let's think of an internal combustion engine. Literally, you
burn something, it pushes a piston and moves the wheels.
Two steps burn push, that's it. So it's extremely efficient.
Now saying that when you fill your car with ten
gallons of gas, four of it goes to pushing the vehicle,
the other six goes to heating the air around the car.

(32:22):
That's the best you can do. But now we're going
to say, okay, we're going to make electric vehicle. So
that four to six ratio holds true even when you
generate electricity. So if you think of the generating electricity,
you burn something, you don't use it to push, you
use it to create steam, and the steam pushes. Then
you got to convert the pushing of the engine or

(32:42):
turbine into electricity, which has its inefficiencies, and then you
got to send it one hundred miles to where the
house is to charge the vehicle. There is no way
that's more efficient than burning it inside of a piston.
So you for every gallon of gas that you use
virtually with an E you only need half that for

(33:02):
an internal combustion engine. So all this bologne about less
pollution is just less pollution at the vehicle. It's twice
as much down on the electrical generation plant.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
They are not green vehicles.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
They want you to believe, though, that the generation point
is a windmill, and we all know that's not the
case with what eighty plus percent of the energy generated
in the United States coming from natural gas.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
And.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
What do you do when there's no wind in no
sign a nuclear plant?

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Yes, says Brian Thomas six forty seven fifty gout Kcity
Talk station. Hey we might get them now that Google
and Microsoft and all the big players in the AI
market are buying their own and building their own, all
the lobbyists saving the way for us to actually get
efficient electricity generation foreign exchange. Speaking of internal combustion engines,
I don't know, I don't know anything about Foreign Exchange.

(33:53):
Whether they touch evs, don't care. I know they handle
internal combustion engines. That's all we own, That's what the
vast majority of people own, and that's where you go
to get your car fixed. Buy an ASC certified Master
technician when you will leave with a full warranty on
parts and service, and you don't pay as much as
the deal or have been harping on this for a
long time, but I'm a real life illustration of huge savings.

(34:14):
Foreign Exchange saves me money and big money every single time.
For me, my under warranty oil changes a couple of
hundred bucks every single time. But they've also keep the
Honda alive for all these years, and I'm surprised that
thing's still running. But hey, got the folks at Foreign
Exchange standing behind the work. So all the Thomas vehicles

George Bendaman in studio, grabbing it up restored Liberty dot us.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
You brought it up, so I'm gonna bring it up.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
I know it's not an uplifting topic to discuss, but
you're not the only one who's concerned. I am concerned.
I read about many people. You know, the great thinkers
of the world are expressing concern. You know, we've had
four plus years I'm even in the Trump administration with
a couple of million illegal immigrants coming in. You got
twenty million under the current administration, roughly a lot of

(36:14):
them unvetted. A couple of million of them never hit
any interaction with authorities. Ergo Bill Clinton, no vetting, right,
and we have these occasional you know, terrorist acts. You
got crazy people with guns or explosives or whatever. I
haven't run into a single human being who isn't worried
about you know, the day after the election, not so
much worried about the election, but oh my god, if

(36:36):
evil Orange Man gets elected. There's a lot of crazy
leftist nut jobs out there, and of course the left
believes they're all crazy right wing nut jobs. But then again,
there's a whole bunch of variable nut jobs potentially within
the illegal immigrant mix. They are an unknown variable and
we just had one who was busted planning on launching
an election day terrorist attack. What's your reaction to all that, George.

Speaker 3 (36:58):
There's a lot of things that are coming together that
are so focused on this election. So let's go back
four years to see what the future looks like. Right, So,
four years ago, they knew that Biden was going to
be having trouble to win that election. So the whole
summer we had nothing but riots, Black Lives Matter, you know,
the sit ins, occupy, all this craziness that basically fed

(37:21):
the thing that when COVID hit, they were able to
even really up the tension, and they wanted this pot stirring.
And of course the media blames out on Trump this year.
They've tried to kill him at least twice, maybe three times,
purely an act of God that Trump's not dead right now,
but yet they continue to call him a threat to democracy,

(37:45):
He's Hitler, He's Nazi. You know, the deplorables are going
to be the most evil people on the planet. All
of this talk about how bad things will be if
Trump wins, how do you go from that to he
actually wins and peace is what happens afterwards. So the
unrest seems to be just building up, like you know,

(38:06):
the old pressure cooker, and if somebody takes the lid
off of that sucker, it's just gonna explode.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
So Trump gets elected and then the chaos hits the street.
It's all the BLM and anti fought occupy folks come
out of the woodwork, the pink cat wearing ladies come
out of the woodwork, and then they just what step
back and say, well, we see, we told you so.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
Right exactly.

Speaker 3 (38:24):
So I think if Trump wins, we're going to see
trouble the day afterwards. I think you're gonna see the
nut jobs. You're gonna see the false flag events again
like January sixth, where actually our own people in the
government are creating this problem pretending to be somebody they aren't.
But I think if she wins, our sides probably more

(38:46):
likely to sit there and stew until she does something
really stupid, like she starts reparations, which is what she
talked about yesterday, or she starts taxing your iras. I
think if she we've got maybe one the three months
of calm, and then things get crazy because she starts
doing what she you know, has said in the past

(39:09):
she wants to do. So how do we get through
this peacefully? Is the question. We've been having a lot
of discussion as part of the Restore Liberty team of Okay,
how do we become a resource for people on what
you should be doing. You know, one idea is we're
going to show people how to get food locally.

Speaker 2 (39:29):
That's a good idea.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
How do you get your supplies and what you need
locally so that you don't rely on you know, interstate
or even international. But you know, how do we get
through it peacefully? That's the That's the question, and the
bigger question is can we Well you'd.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
Think that we all would want to get through it peacefully.
We've suffered through administrations. Both sides have suffered through administrations
that they didn't agree with, didn't believe in. You know,
Ronald Reagan was going to cause World War three And
you know this feels like nineteen eighty Well it in
many respects does, most notably the makeup of the electric

(40:04):
and the electorate and this idea that blue collar workers
are gravitating largely toward Trump, and that's exactly what happened
in nineteen eighty. George Browneman Restore Liberty dot Us. I
