Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's that time, time, time, time, luck, and lude Michael
Varry Show is on the air. I don't saw the wings.
You saw the garage. I see the garage, but I
don't saw the garage. You are speaking incorrectly. You are

(00:25):
more to ring the King's English.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
See see shut out.

Speaker 1 (00:32):
I think that you punch. I think you punch. I
think you're okay with you.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
You okay, we'll punching, you know, I think, And I
love Colin, and I think towards the end he started
to punch a little harder.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
But like it's the grooves.

Speaker 3 (00:45):
I mean, like this dude has to be knots over
the head, like hard right, Like there is no niceties
with him, like at all, Like you you go clean
off on him, right because we in these hot ass
Texas streets, Honey, y'all know we got governor hot wheels
down there, come on now, and the only thing hot

(01:09):
about him is that he is a hot ass mask, honey.
So so yes, yes, yes, yes.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Twice three times.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
But the fact that you literally are going to plan
enemy attacks on a signal chat and then you don't
even know who's in the signal chat, and then y'all
gonna come in US and act like people of color
are the problem.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Are that women are the problem?

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Like, baby, you probably need a good black woman in
the room who can check you and tell you that,
first of all, you shouldn't be doing this on signal
or anything else.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
But y'all still mad about Hillary's servers. That is that
what I hear? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (02:02):
So anyway, Literally, I don't know if like your homeboy
was drunk at the time that he was sending these
messages or what, but clearly this administration is not ready
for prime time. There has been no oppression for the
white man in this country.

Speaker 4 (02:22):
You'll tell me which white men were dragged out of
their homes. You'll tell me which one of them got
dragged all the way across an ocean and told that
you are gonna go at work.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
We are gonna seal your wives, We are gonna rape
your wives. That didn't happen. That is oppression. We didn't
ask to be here.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
We're not the same migrants did y'all constantly come up against.

Speaker 5 (02:47):
We didn't run away from home. We were stolen. So yeah,
we are gonna sit here and be offended. When you
want to sit here and act like and don't let
it escape you that.

Speaker 4 (02:59):
It is white man on this side of the aisle
telling us people of color on this side of the
aisle that y'all are the ones being oppressed, That y'all
are the ones that are being harmed.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Your wounds.

Speaker 6 (03:14):
Twice, three times.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
There's something very rich about Jasmine Crockett declaring that the
Trump administration is not ready for prime time. There is
something very rich. Indeed. You know, a democratic republic should

(03:41):
have representation from all the various groups and constituencies, and
Jasmine Crockett represents one of those that is a very
large one, and she does it well. She's not as
stupid as she cuts up and pretends to be. That's

(04:02):
a role she's playing. It comes out of a form
of the menstrual role. The menstrual role was where a
black person historically, or a white person painted in blackface
would appear to do the yes massa kind of thing,
the sort of subjugated supplicant personality that today is considered

(04:28):
so awful, But that was very popular on the stage
and eventually in the screen, and of course in literature.
Then there became then that morphed a couple of times,
and the one that Jasmine Crockett plays, which Tupac played.
If you see early videos of tupocular shock, you you
won't believe that that's actually him. But there have been

(04:51):
other artists and athletes and politicians who do I'm bad,
I'm street, I'm street, I'm keeping it real thing, And
that's kind of what she does. But on the issue
of the Trump presidency, they had their president had his

(05:12):
cabinet meeting today. Ramona and I were talking about this
before the show. This is a really special thing we're
witnessing here, folks. I want to put a bow on
it to draw special attention to him. We are watching
the president conducting the nation's business on live television in

(05:34):
a very open and honest way. I am a true
believer in transparency. I am a true believer that when
things are made public, you have an opportunity for people
to investigate them. You have an opportunity for lies to
be exposed, but you also have the opportunity for people

(05:55):
to feel invested. There's a sense of truthfulness to this,
there's a sense of trust to this, and the fact
that the president has these people bringing there. You know,
when Elon said in the email to government employees, tell
me what you've done. Tell me five things you've done

(06:17):
this week. That was a very telling reaction that we saw.
There were government employees, mostly women, who lost their minds.
How dare you say this? This has triggered me. That's
how we know you're the problem. If you can't do that.
Our team all said, I didn't ask, they all sent me.
Here's by five things. As a way, if you're going

(06:40):
to have an effective organization, you've got to have motivation.
Excellence in anything a military, a sports team, a business organization,
a church, a family, a school. Excellence requires a number
of things. Motivation, team work, sacrifice, accountability for failure, measuring

(07:06):
so that you can have accountability. Trump is Trump is
showing you how to conduct an organization's business and using
the nation as a way to do it. Folks, we've
never seen anything like this. This is truly very special.
Don't blink or you'll miss it, because Trump will be

(07:26):
gone and this time will be gone, and you will forget.
You will forget how beautiful this is to watch. You
will forget how special this is. And I think it's
important for people like me to point out how special
it is so that we don't take it for granted,
I am a big believer in stating the opposite. I

(07:46):
am an over communicated obvious. I am an over communicator
because I think it's very important that things not be overlooked,
and sometimes that requires saying, Hey, so you know that
book that was delivered to you. I bought that and
I drove six hours to get it because I knew

(08:08):
it was important to you. And I don't mind. That's
how much I love you, as opposed to someone going, hu,
I got this book. One who gives and then they
don't appreciate what Trump is doing with this. This is glorious. Folks, snowflakes,
prepare for a complete meltdown with Laura off the Michael
Berry Show. It's ledator Elizabeth Warren, Democrats from Massachusetts, was

(08:33):
on c NBC calling this is clip four ten, calling
for the FED to cut rates while criticizing Trump. We're
publicly talking about the Fed. You see, we just keep Democrats.
We just keep catching Democrats criticizing Donald Trump. We're doing

(08:54):
exactly what they do.

Speaker 7 (08:56):
Best way to signal that is go with a big
rate cut.

Speaker 8 (08:59):
One point that many viewers wanted me to ask you
about is if we're criticizing the presidential candidates for sort
of wanting more influence over the FED.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
I'm talking about Trump in particular. Here.

Speaker 8 (09:12):
Is it appropriate for senators to be writing a letter
expressing a viewpoint that is putting pressure on the FED
to do something that is seen as overtly political because
it comes from one party?

Speaker 1 (09:24):
What is the difference there? To explain why.

Speaker 8 (09:27):
That is appropriate but not from.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
The I will make two points here.

Speaker 7 (09:33):
The first is that we are making an economic argument here,
and you and I have talked many times about this.
It's a consistent economic argument reminding the FED of their
legal obligation to follow two parts. Right. They have a
two part mandate here, and that's part of my job
in oversight as a senator. That's what I'm supposed to do.

(09:57):
I also want to be clear, I'm doing this right
out in public. Everybody can see it, you can see
exactly when it happens. That is very different from someone
saying I want to be able to squeeze behind closed doors,
and I want to be able to do it for
political reasons. I think those two are very different. But
understand I ain't saying anything in private that I'm not

(10:18):
saying right out there in public for everybody to evaluate.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
I keep saying this again and again and again. The
Democrats keep getting busted for criticizing Donald Trump over things
they themselves have done. Here's a little flashback from the
archives of AOC. This is clip four h six. This
is AOC saying that the Biden administration should ignore the

(10:44):
Supreme Court when they handed down a ruling that she
didn't like. Now, Trump says, you know, the court can
enforce their own rule. I don't like it, and they're
calling it a constitutional crisis when it's exactly what he
said before, or that's four.

Speaker 9 (11:00):
Six that I believe that the Biden administration should ignore
this ruling. I think that we know the courts have
the legitimacy and they rely on the legitimacy of their rulings,
and what they are currently doing is engaged in an
unprecedented and dramatic erosion of the legitimacy of the courts.

(11:26):
It is the justices themselves, through the deeply partisan and
unfounded nature of these rulings, that are undermining their own enforcement.

Speaker 10 (11:37):
So what you're saying the Biden administration should ignore this court,
what does that look like?

Speaker 1 (11:42):
What does that actually mean?

Speaker 11 (11:43):
You know, I think the interesting thing when it comes
to a ruling is that it relies on enforcement, and
it is up to the Biden administration to enforce to
choose whether or not to enforce such a ruling.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Speaking of him hypocrisy, Senator Adam Schiff went on with
Bill Maher and had the audacity, I mean, this is
real audacity here to say I don't think Biden should
have given pardons. It sets the precedent, and now Trump
can do it. If you didn't think he should give pardons,

(12:22):
why did you accept one? You criminal?

Speaker 12 (12:27):
Given the ongoing political tensions and Trump's actions towards his critics,
do you think President Biden's preemptive pardons turned out to
be more important than initially expected. Let's first tell people
what that means. Preemptive pardons that was pretty unprecedented. Right
before he left office, Joe Biden pardoned you and a

(12:49):
number of people who he thought Trump would go after.

Speaker 13 (12:53):
No, I take the opposite you. I don't think he
should have given the pardons at all. Really, no, I
don't think he should have, and I was vocal about
that at the time.

Speaker 1 (13:02):
Can you refuse a pardon?

Speaker 13 (13:04):
That's less clear because in the case of the Jeneror
sixth Committee, he pardoned essentially the whole committee. But I
didn't like it, both because we were enormously proud of
our work on the Jeneror six Committee, but more than that,
establishing a precedent that on the way out the door
you're going to pardon any number of people gave him

(13:27):
even greater latitude on his way out of the door
to pardon everyone around him. Chief Justice Roberts in that
immunity decision, I think, which will go down in infamy,
already gave this president permission to be lawless.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
But the abuse of the pardon.

Speaker 13 (13:44):
Power essentially gives him an opportunity to tell everyone around him,
then when I'm on the way out the door, I've
got your back.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
And so I think.

Speaker 13 (13:54):
Part of why you see such willingness among the people
around him to engage in lawful, lawless action is they're
confident they'll get a partner on the way.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
Democrats are trying to create a civil war, and it's
a bad idea because our people are are better armed.
And you might think to yourself, well, Michael, their thugs
are out shooting up the streets every day. Their thugs
are turning their gun sideways. They shoot a hundred times

(14:25):
and only hit a few. Our people served in the military,
law enforcement, and they hunt squirrels and a lot of
bigger things. If there was a civil war, it wouldn't
end well. And I don't want that to happen. I
want to be very clear on that. But these kind
of statements right here by the very dumb and ugly
Frederica Wilson from Florida. This kind of stuff right here,

(14:50):
there are people that when they hear this, they do
the wrong thing. That's a clip four O nine.

Speaker 14 (14:59):
I didn't give out of the phone numbers to the
House of Representatives and to the Senate. It's one number.
That number you call and you threaten me, and you
say this is wrong.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
This is not a error.

Speaker 7 (15:18):
This is not what we stand for.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
We need a change. You have to do that.

Speaker 14 (15:26):
It's gonna take the people. We've done. I'm done, I'm talking.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
I talked myself up Blivia.

Speaker 14 (15:36):
We need the.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
People leaving upside where people.

Speaker 14 (15:40):
Are taking into the streets and the phones and writing levers.

Speaker 1 (15:45):
That's what we do.

Speaker 9 (15:47):
Look at him, and they looked at me, you know,
And I just looked at her and I have to.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Just get your stuff and get it out to Michael
and got a newspaper and I wrote it up.

Speaker 15 (15:55):
I slapped him on the nose, I said, bad.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
I told you about a statement Marco Rubio said over
the weekend on Meet the Press with Christian Welker. This
is going to be clip five oh four Marco Rubio,
and the question was why hasn't President Trump imposed sanctions
on Russia? And I thought this was a very good

(16:23):
I wasn't sure how he would do at Secretary of State.
I'm not a fan of his, but I think he's
done a very I think he's I think he's shown
himself to be a more serious person than anyone expected.

Speaker 7 (16:36):
Given the frustrations that he is voicing.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
Mister Secretary.

Speaker 8 (16:39):
Why hasn't he imposed sanctions yet?

Speaker 6 (16:43):
Well, because I think we're still hoping to see that
this effort works out in diplomacy and now we can
bring these two sides closer together. I mean, the minute
you start doing that kind of stuff, you're walking away
from you, You're walking away from it. You've now doomed
yourself to another two years of war, and we don't
want to see it happen. I think what's important and
really ways is there is no other country, there is

(17:03):
no other institution or organization on the earth that can
bring these two sides together. No one else is talking
to both sides but us, and no one else in
the world can make something like this happen. But the President,
this is a very significant responsibility and a really important opportunity,
and we want to make sure that we work it
all the way through, that we don't walk away from
something that can actually work or that can actually lead

(17:27):
to peace. But we also don't want to continue to
spend time on something.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
That's not going to get us there.

Speaker 6 (17:32):
So throughout this process it's about determining do both sides
really want peace and how close are they or how
far apart they are after ninety days of effort. Here
over ninety days of effort, that's what we're trying to
determine this week. There are reasons to be optimistic and
there are also reasons to be concerned. It's complicated that
this was an easy war to end that would have
been ended by someone else a long time ago. But

(17:54):
right now the only one who can bring these two
sides together to end this war is our president, President Trump.
We are doing everything we can to see if we
can get that done here over the next few days.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
Scott bessen this is gonna be clipped. Five oh six.
Scott Bessant was on ABC this week with Martha Radits
and you made a statement that I think was very interesting.
He said, the US has a barbell economy. If you

(18:24):
think of a barbell economy being big on one end,
big on the other, and skinny in the middle of
the part that you actually hold to lift the barbell.
I think this is a very very good explanation. I
did an explanation on the Morning Show if you want
to go listen on the podcast about where I think

(18:44):
AI is taking us and how that affects kids. And
I think it would be worth if you take any
of my advice on anything else. Is probably most useful
thing I've said this week. I'm tay to go check
it out.

Speaker 10 (19:05):
The President is looking forward to the jobs of the future,
not the jobs of the past. The goal is to
bring back high performance manufacturing jobs or create high performance
manufacturing jobs. Right now.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
How long does that take? I mean that is such
a concern. How long does it take to bring that
to the US? Well, is there a plan, of course,
but it's a process.

Speaker 10 (19:29):
Right now, the US has a Barbell economy. We have
a very advanced financial system. We have a tech the
exploration and development that is the envy in the world.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
On the other side, we are a.

Speaker 10 (19:43):
Natural resource economy led by energy, which the previous administration
tried to stifle. And in between is where working class
Americans have lost out and we want to bring back
these manufacturing jobs or create these manufacturing jobs of the future.
And we are meeting with companies that want to do
this every day.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
This is also Scott Bessant, Treasury Secretary, on ABC this
week with Martha Radditt, same interview, and he's calling out
the stock market coverage. I told you about the poll
it showed that Trump was getting beat up on. The
economy is getting beat up because the media is telling

(20:24):
you the economy is terrible by statistical measures. It's not.

Speaker 10 (20:29):
And look at the some of the things that are
being published. There was a story ten days ago that
said this is the worst April for the stock market
since the Great Depression. Ten days later, the Nasdaq is
now up in the month of April, and I haven't
seen a story that says, oh stock market has biggest

(20:49):
bounce back ever, so it certainly.

Speaker 9 (20:53):
Has gone back and forth.

Speaker 10 (20:55):
I think a lot of this is media driven.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
Just a fun little quote from Elon muh because this
is clipping number five oh eight. You get taxed on
what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy,
and you get taxed on what you own. It's all
taxes because it's a game for them. They're taking your
money and playing with it.

Speaker 16 (21:15):
You get taxed on what you own, you get taxed
on what you buy, and you get text on what
you own. Taxes, taxes, taxes, you know, and then what
does it get spent on? A bunch of stuff You
get spent on you don't even agree with. So you know,
that's why we need to We need to reduce the
size of government and to spend less money and uh,

(21:37):
let the people keep a lot more of their hard
earned money.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah. So I'm still mad over doctor Oz losing the
Pennsylvania Senate race. Not because I'm a doctor Oz fan,
I'm not, but because I think some people got into
Trump's ear and convinced him to support doctor Oz. He
does love celebrities, and doctor Oz was never popular the base,

(22:01):
and that cost us that election, we did it anyway.
Now he is the Medicaid and Medicare administrator, and I
like this. He's pointing out billions of dollars in fraud,
worse than Usaid, and I believe this. I think Medicare
and Medicaid are agents of fraud. I think the people

(22:22):
who need help don't get it. Elon was talking about
how they've got AI bots now that are going in
and applying for Social Security dependent coverage, Medicare, Medicaid and
they can't get a handle on how much it is yet,

(22:42):
but it's a lot of money.

Speaker 17 (22:44):
Apparently, my mission is to protect the most vulnerable, because
I'll tell you, as a heart surgeon, the most expensive
care is bad care. You've got to pay the person
who's doing a bad job, you got to pay someone
else who's capable to fix the problem, and you got
to pay for the complet gations. And there's so many
things we can do to improve care in America, And

(23:04):
folks watching this program are probably written seeing and pretty
good testimonials out there about well, what has been done
in the past does not work well. But here's the goodness.
We can empower beneficiaries, give you tools and that's coming
down the pike at you. We can make sure providers
have better opportunities and incentivize them to do the right thing,
because oftentimes in CMS we've unfortunately gotten folks to do

(23:28):
things wrong because we pay them for doing things incorrectly.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
But right now, my main.

Speaker 17 (23:33):
Focus, without any question, is to wage a war on fraud,
waste and abuse. Okay, that's what's required. All hands on deck.
It's a massive issue. You know, hundreds of billions of
dollars potentially out there, not all of us going to
be collected at once, but we've got a war room
right now, focus very much on things that are going

(23:54):
to really bother you. If you thought usaid was a problem,
some of the issues that we are discovering, some of
the things that CMS has been funding through Medicare and
Medicaid and the exchanges.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
We'll bring a little shiver to you. We're gonna add
a little bit about these whore houses I know all about.
Ramon wants to know what around the world is.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Whistling, bungholes, spleen splitters, whisker biscuits, honkey riders, hoosker doos hohosker,
don'ts nips and Dazers with it without the scooter stick
or one single whistling kiddie chasing.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
I consume a lot of media as you do. I
read a lot, observe a lot, talk to a lot
of people, and many times I will hear something and
I will pull it for you, or have our team
pull it so that you can. You can see my
point because I think hearing it. If I say Bernie
Sanders is talking crazy, in your mind, you remember he's

(24:52):
talking crazy. You may remember his his crooked finger, but
it's not until you hear him that it really hits home.
This is four oh eight. This is a flashback from
NBC News in nineteen eighty three and then Senator Bernie
Sanders in twenty nineteen. Now, yes it's a consistent message,

(25:16):
but we're forty two years later from the NBC News
story and six years later from the Bernie Sanders story.
These people have been predicting the end for a very
long time. Clip four oh eight.

Speaker 7 (25:30):
The federal report today predicted possible catastrophic warming of the
Earth by the nineteen nineties with a strong climate change with.

Speaker 18 (25:38):
The scientists are telling us that we don't get our
act together within the.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
Next eight or nine years.

Speaker 18 (25:45):
We're talking about cities all over the world, major cities
going on the water.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
And let me see I can pull this. I made
a list. I found a list actually, of times the
left has claimed this case from doctor Simon Goddek fifteen
times the climate experts were dead wrong nineteen sixty nine.
Everyone will disappear in a cloud of blue stream by

(26:11):
nineteen eighty nine, and in nineteen seventy. Urban citizens will
need gas masks by nineteen eighty five. Also nineteen seventy,
decaying pollution will kill all the fish. Also in nineteen seventy,
ice age coming by two thousand, nineteen seventy two, oil
depleted in twenty years. Nineteen seventy four. Space satellites show

(26:35):
a new ice age is coming fast. Remember they used
to claim it was ice. Some say the world will
end in fire. Some ice is coming for a lot
of people. You know what, you make a very good
point wrong. I was thinking you haven't contributed anything, but
you did contribute. That would it be weird if I

(26:56):
quoted one of my favorite poems at this point, Some
say the world will end in fire, some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire, I hold with those
who favor fire, But if I had to perish twice,

(27:16):
I think I know enough of hate to say that
for destruction, ice is also great and would suffice. Do
you want to hear it again? Okay, no, I might
mess it up this time. Usually when I recite something,
I get it the first time, and then it's Robert Frost,
by the way, great American poet. See, if I can

(27:39):
remember it, I'll try to do it this time without
stopping at the end of the lines. I like to
stop at the end of the lines, but you know
the poetry. People don't like that. Some say the world
will end in fire, some say in ice. From what
I've tasted of desire, I hold with those who favor fire,
But if it had to perish twice, I think I

(28:00):
know enough of hate to say that for destruction, ice
is also great and would suffice? Or do you like
the old fashioned traditional? Some say the world will end
in fire, some say an ice. From what I've tasted
of desire, I hold with those who favor fire, But
if it had to perish twice, I think I know

(28:21):
enough of hate to say that for destruction, ice is
also great and would suffice. Silly little poem. But since
we're talking about the left and them claiming that everything's
going to burn up, let me go back to my
list over here. Where were we at nineteen seventy They
had us all dying by two thousand. What they learned

(28:44):
over the years was that when you predict the end
of the world in thirty years, nobody pays attention. So
they started saying sooner and sooner and sooner. Then nineteen
eighty these are the predictions. Acid rain kills life in lakes.
Nineteen eighty nine, New York City's West Side Highway underwater

(29:04):
by twenty nineteen. None of these came true. Also, nineteen
eighty nine, rising seas will obliterate nations by two thousand
if no action is taken. Oh, the rising of the seas.
That's always a big one. Two thousand children won't know
what snow is anymore. Oh okay, two thousand and five.
Manhattan will be underwater by twenty fifteen. Wait, you told

(29:28):
us it would be underwater by twenty nineteen, and we're
not even getting Okay, change the gold posts. Two thousand
and nine. Al Gore predicts an ice free Arctic by
twenty fourteen. Also two thousand and nine, Prince Charles warrens,
we have ninety six months to save the world eight years.
We're all going to die in eight years. It's not

(29:49):
the first bad decision he's ever made. Twenty fourteen, only
five hundred left, a day's left before climate chaos. But
sure we've got some new al Gore audio. Here was
a flashback to two thousand and nine. This will be
clip number four oh five. Flash back to two thousand
and nine. Al Gore and John Kerry predicting an ice

(30:12):
free Arctic twenty thirteen. There is a seventy.

Speaker 15 (30:16):
Five percent chance that the entire North polarized cap during summer,
during some of the summer months, could be completely ice
free within the next five to seven years.

Speaker 18 (30:31):
You have sea ice which is melting at a rate
that the Arctic Ocean now increasingly is exposed. In five years,
scientists predict we will have the first ice free Arctic summer.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
This has something to do with all the environmental nonsense.
Elon Musk was on with Joe Rogan. This is five
oh three. George Soros has figured out how to hack
the system. And it took Elon to figure this thing
out because he thinks on a very high level, and
so does George Soros. You need non governmental organizations in

(31:06):
order to get government money. Elon is suggesting that Soros
isn't pumping money into America. He's just using seed money
to create these NGOs, and then he gets all this
money from our government for the NGOs and he spends

(31:27):
it's just like marketing. He spends a percentage of it
on uh on buying politicians. But isn't this interesting? This
is five oh three the Elon Musk on with Joe Rogan.

Speaker 16 (31:37):
It's kind of a hack to the system where you know,
someone can get an NGO stood up for a fairly
small amount of money. Like George Harris was really good
at this, Like he really George Soros is like a
system hacker, Like he figured out how to hack the system.
He's a genius at arbitrage. I mean these ases. He's
pretty old, but genius at albertrage. So he figured out

(31:59):
that you leverage this small amount of money to create
a nonprofit, then lobby for the politicians to send a
ton of money to that nonprofit, so you can take
what might be you know, a ten million dollar donation
to a nonprofit to create a nonprofit and leverage that
into a billion dollar an angio. A nonprofit is a

(32:21):
weird word. It's just a non governmental organization. And then
you can the government continues to fund that every year,
and it'll have a nice sounding name like the Institute
for Peace or something like that, but really it's a
graph machine.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
And what are their requirements with that money? What do
they have to do? Just really no requirements at all,
So they just get grants and the government just assumes
that they're doing good work.

Speaker 16 (32:48):
I think a lot of people in the government know
that they are not doing good work, but they it's
a giant graph machine.
