Speaker 4 (07:07):
Ktrh lead countdown has, Expired the shutdown has. BEGUN i
wonder if this is going to end up being What
Chuck schumer thought it was going to, be OR i
even wonder what he thought it was going to. Be
to be honest with, YOU i felt like he got
pressured into it by the looney wing of his, party
As Senator John kennedy calls, it the looney wing of his.

(07:28):
Party they are in. Charge they are a, minority but
they are large and in, charge and the Mainstream democrats
are scared to death of. Them and this is an. Opportunity,
now this is an opportunity for those two point. Zero
The democrats have decided to shut the government down because
they wanted a trillion dollars worth of restoration to Medic, Air,

(07:52):
medicaid all these different programs that just basically had a
few common sense rules changes done to. Them that's all
that really happened with a big beautiful. Bill we're not
spending less on a medicare than we were. Before it
grows by at least two percent every. Year it continues to.
Grow we're just eliminating people who are not supposed to

(08:12):
be eligible for, it for which the programs were never.
Intended but they wanted to restore all, that along with
money for public broadcasting in other programs that got cut
in the big beautiful bill kind of the doge one Point. Oh,
well now it's time for dose two point. Zero and
here's what could potentially. Happen this is how could really

(08:33):
backfire For. Democrats they could end up causing the permanent
layoffs or furloughs of thousands and thousands and thousands and
thousands and thousands of federal, employees non essential federal, employees
non essential federal, departments those all need to be on
the cutting. Block now you can take a look at
every one of those things and, Say, okay there's no

(08:57):
funding for this, anymore so you're. Gone. Now the thing
it will do is it will lead to a higher unemployment,
rate at least, temporarily because you're going to have all
these government workers who are not going to be working
for the government. Anymore But i'm taking a look at
the list here with the government. Shutdown for, example you
take The State department that employs a lot of, people

(09:21):
including embassies and consulates. Abroad there are ten three hundred
and forty four employees who are exempted, personnel which means
that they will not they will continue despite any sort
of a government. Shutdown sixteen, thousand, however are not they're
not necessary, necessarily and their physicians will at least be

(09:43):
at least temporarily. Eliminated The Defense, department that's the, military
there have three hundred and thirty four, thousand nine hundred
and four who are an active, duty nothing happens with.
Them seven hundred forty four hundred and seventy seven civilian
first now non exempted that they will be. Furloughed so
there are there are people who will at least temporarily

(10:08):
lose their jobs in a. Paycheck when it comes to the,
military there's no doubt in my, mind there's nothing but
support in this administration for the. Military so none of
those cuts are going to be. Permanent but as you
look at other, departments there's, wasted especially The education. Department
we already know how Prison trump feels about The Education.
Department how many how many people can they get rid
of in The education? Department how much money can they potentially?

(10:29):
Save there be fun to watch five to ten time
for traffic and weather to together in.

Speaker 5 (10:34):
The defense, Department but it's really The department Of, war your,
correct The War?

Speaker 4 (10:39):
Department all?

Speaker 5 (10:41):
Right downtown they have shut down Iten, jimmy this is.

it ever gets used is we have company is a
very rare thing that we use. THE coffee maker i
have coffee At working, that i've DONE or if i,
want coffee, before you know maybe, AT the airport i

A shut down, because My colleagues, my democratic colleagues are very,

un serious and he knew That neither the president nor
the Other members of congress were going. To accept them and,

TO begin with i think fair and reasonable people take

(47:56):
a Look At what jimmy kimmel did and said in
real that he went past his so called. Free speech rights, first,
of all again you don't have any free speech rights
when you work. For a corporation if you, violate corporate
policy they can and will, let you go or at
least they have the ability to. Let you go and,
at The time what disney did was they decided that

(48:18):
they were going to listen to their affiliates because they
had a bunch of affiliates who were no longer willing
to run the show and are still not. Running the show.
And that's business and if what you do causes a big,
loss of business then you're going to have to pay the,
price for that and he did by. Getting, That suspension
now Hollywood Ran to jimmy kimble's rescue, and basically said

(48:42):
we're not going to, Cooperate with you disney for movies
and productions and actors and actresses and all these other
things Unless You put jimmy kimmel back. On the air so,
they basically said we won't work with you anymore unless
you put him back. On the air, so they did
and that pissed off all the people Who Didn't want
jimmy kimmel to. Be re established So what what disney

(49:05):
did is they they they hacked off a lot of people,
by suspending him and then they hacked off even more
people by. Bringing him back it was a, no win
situation and now they find themselves in a situation. Where
they've lost they're losing some real money one point. Seven
million subscriptions that's a lot six' ten time for. Traffic and, Whether,

(49:27):

Today now no more. Cut down the shutdown has begun
something tells me? Where, to wear that song out Unfortunately
six twenty. Three here in, houston's morning news so you
know people. Always get worried about a shutdown. Most of
us won't notice it we. Don't work for the. Federal,
government we won't notice It Well if, you get a
social security check You're Still going. To get your social

(54:24):
security check there Will Be Some people at the social,
security administration that will be furloughed but these are. Not
the people processing your payments but there. Are other areas
that are affected it will, have an impact on the
economy depending. Up on how long it Goes So let's talk.
To economists christian briggs about this what is The most
immediate impact if any christian on the? Economy, based, on

(54:45):
the government shutdown well first thanks.

Speaker 15 (54:47):
For having me on the.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Show that's a great question because a lot, of people.

Speaker 13 (54:51):
Have been asking.

Speaker 2 (54:52):
That especially on the past.

Speaker 11 (54:53):
Shutdowns it's always been, pretty much the same thing consistently
and that is you're having so many billions of dollars a.
Day that's pulled, from the economy so for example if,
you furlow fifty five hundred thousand there's even say two
million people now after the shutdown is completed or at.

Speaker 15 (55:13):
Least sometime starts to MOVE on and the amount, of.

Speaker 11 (55:17):
Gdp impact on this one because this is one of
the largest total governments we've ever had in terms of
how many, people are going to be Furloughed is going to.
Be pretty it's really, pretty significant and if it continues
if the shutdown continues longer, than about three to four weeks,
which would be hard to, believe but let's say it
does the impact could be at least a half a
POINT to a point off the gdp because it's not

(55:40):
just during the shutdown that the, economic loss has seen.

Speaker 4 (55:43):
And felt but it takes a. WHILE to ramp it
back up i always use.

Speaker 11 (55:47):
The method of analogy on this it's like turning off
a nuclear power plant and.

Speaker 4 (55:53):
Then all of a sudden you.

Speaker 11 (55:53):
Want to turn it back on it takes longer to
turn it back on and get back to where it
was than the duration, Of time that was shut down
so the impact could be significant as we continue.

Speaker 4 (56:03):
This if it goes, longer than, Two to four weeks
all right i'm guessing it also has an impact on
unemployment claims because a lot of these people are technically
out of. Work therefore able to collect unemployment so that's
going to tax.

Speaker 11 (56:14):
That.

Speaker 4 (56:14):
System to, a certain extent.

Speaker 11 (56:17):
Absolutely in fact when you look at pass, shutdowns or
things of this nature, when, the duration, is for six
eight twelve weeks what happens, is a, lot of the
individuals the workers whether they're, directly at federal government or
consulting because it can affect, not only direct but indirect
employees consultants. Into the federal government's own agencies some of

(56:40):
these people don't have the cash in the bin to withstand.

Speaker 4 (56:44):
The time, that this could take For.

Speaker 11 (56:47):
Example when you look at, america right now as, a
whole about sixty five percent maybe as high as seventy
By some measures of people in. America, are living paycheck
to paycheck now if you're pulling that paycheck for any
length of time and they have little limited or little
resources or no resources whatsoever in the bank to be.

Speaker 15 (57:07):
Able to maintain the BILL.

Speaker 11 (57:09):
Paying it's not just the gdp, it's not just the
time off because sometimes it, does work havoc on your
mind but it's, the financial devastation, that this could.

Speaker 4 (57:18):
This could happen, and it's happened in the past.

Speaker 11 (57:21):
It will happen in the future if this thing goes,
longer Than two to four, weeks and i'll say it
again then you're going to have a. Significant impact, on the,
entire economy and, then of course like you said, which
is a, really good point, on the unemployment that, will
skyrocket like that will skyrocket and.

Speaker 15 (57:35):
Some of these people may.

Speaker 4 (57:36):
Never Come Back to their jobs economist christian briggs is
whether us here ON. NEWS radio seven forty k trh i,
Also kind of have to wonder christian about whether or
not this, Leads, to a doze Two Points oh is
this a what democrats are risking With the shutdown is
that the trump, administration will go, through and say you
know what we don't need that thousand people, we let

(57:58):
go from that department or we. Don't don't even need
that department here's a, good reason to. Shut, it down
you know what, okay so that was brought up that
question of, yours is.

Speaker 11 (58:09):
Really again a good good one it was, brought up, Once,
not long ago that says okay what happens if dog
does make, those, cuts where those people go well they'll.
Find something in, The private sector in this case trump
has the hatchet like he has the ability to be
able to take some of these things that we consider
to be waste or inefficiency within government and have that

(58:30):
opportunity to, minimize that or in other, words he can lay,
people off he can fire. Them he can definitely furrow
them so. There is value what you're saying. But, think
about it like this also this. Isn't politics at its
finest moment Let's just be. Realistic what the democrats are
doing it's not about them caring for. Illegal immigrants and

(58:52):
their health care this is a pivoting point for them
to try to Talk to their base because the.

Speaker 15 (58:57):
Democrats have lost so many there i'll call.

Speaker 11 (59:00):
It their fans if you will certainly some of their
their polls, have shown that they're really hurting especially in some.
State of local markets and communities so this is a
ploy to be able. TO talk to the illegal community i.
Would factor of a better definition that's just, what you want.
To call it the illegal community of people that have
come in here illegally and to be able to show

(59:22):
them that they're still trying to. Fight for Them in
their Rights It's not this is A Chuck schumer led
by the senate democrats trying to make very clear that they.
Still think that they hold power the problem is is
that in the crosshairs of all of this problems that
they go, back And, forth and complain about these, democrats
is that these good people there's great people, that work
in the federal Government and they're going to, get they're

(59:43):
going to get.

Speaker 4 (59:43):
Hurt and they're going to remember, who did. This to
them too aren't they that's. The economists we got to, run,

that are bad, for them and irreversible by them like,
cutting vast numbers of people, out cutting things that they.

(01:06:59):
forbes here's a little Clip From, A Little, debate Between
Steve forbes Larry Cudlow and liz peak on fox business
About THE. Pros. And, cons of trump rx.

Speaker 44 (01:07:11):
Yeah well putting price controls on the pharmaceutical Industry. Just
guarantees what's happened, in europe you get less innovation which
means we're going.

Speaker 15 (01:07:18):
To have a less healthy, future but if.

Speaker 44 (01:07:20):
You build here if you build a price if, you
build a pharmaceutical plan.

Speaker 2 (01:07:24):
Here like a talent, oil plant. That was a joke
bad joke but, if you build a plan.

Speaker 4 (01:07:29):
Here he gives me a.

Speaker 44 (01:07:30):
Headache you won't get. That, happen you won't get tariffed
yeah but that shouldn't be dependent. On if you Need
a medication that shouldn't be they. Shouldn't be putting on
price control there are various ways, you get plants to
locate here which is part of what they've, done in
terms of reducing. Taxes in terms of reducing regulations but
this forced thing of trying to force the trade that's,

(01:07:52):
going to be two way street and we set a
terrible precedent for when the bad guys eventually get, Back,
into power, and national urgency oh climate change we. Know
where that's going to lead so let's. Do it by
the rule, book if they Want. A tax pass atax
in congress they, want to put On. Price controls do
it through congress aren't our generics much cheaper. THAN anything,

(01:08:15):
else on the market i mean it's only it's. A
small number that we're talking it's.

Speaker 4 (01:08:20):
The nose under the. Tech animal's nose under the. Tent
WE know it can? Lead can i disagree with you.

Speaker 45 (01:08:25):
For ONCE, in my entire life during covid we discovered
That we are incredibly dependent on, china for not only
prescription drugs but a lot of over the. Counter medications
that people depend on and, it was appalling to Me
that having discovered that the biden administration did, Absolutely nothing
to onshore pharmaceutical manufacturing We've Got the entire apparatus in

(01:08:47):
puerto rico available. To regenerate manufacturing, here for pharmaceuticals so
with respect, if it takes putting on tariffs so it
takes draconian measures TO. Get pharmaceutics made in.

Speaker 22 (01:09:00):
The, Us i'm all for.

Speaker 4 (01:09:01):
It okay so, there's the debate first of all it's
going to be basically generic drugs that were really going
to start save some cost on and we already. Kind of,
SAVE cost on that but hey i would be the first,
to say we need cheaper drugs and we Have Been
unfairly treated in. The united states for so long we
have footed the bill. For the vast majority of innovation

(01:09:22):
this levels of the playing, field at least a little
bit And it also encourages companies like pfizer To Manufacture.
More Drugs in the united states so i'm willing. TO
see what Happens With this i understand what. Steve forbes
is saying. About it maybe it'll Stifle innovation and? What
happens when democrats take over what are they going to
do to drug companies. That will stifle innovation even further.

(01:09:43):
But here's my question questions today it's it's a, bit
of a cerebral question today trump? Our ex for it
against it what do you think you think this is
good that we're making. Deals with these major drug manufacturers
do you see the problems with this or do you think.
It's more good news Than bad you GO. To the
iHeart radio 'p, ktrh hit the talk. Back button up

You this antifa is a terrorist organization they.

HAVE been a terrorist organization for Years i, had been
Calling on, the trump administration the first trump administration. To
Designate them as a terrorist, organization PRESIDENT trump has now
done so and i appreciate. That it's the right thing.
To do and here's the, critical piece antifa doesn't. Rise
up organically it is paid.

For and here's.

Speaker 18 (01:16:26):
What we must Do follow the money how Much, of
antifa is paid for by cutter how Much, of it
is paid for by iran how much Of, it is
paid for by communist china and how much of it
is Paid For by left Wing billionaires Like George Soros,
and the bill and melinda gates Foundation. Who also are
massive donors to democrats part of the reason Why the

(01:16:47):
By the administration and every democrat in congress turns a
blind Eye to the violence and terrorism of antifa is
the same people writing the checks or. Writing the checks
AND funding their Campaign and so What i Have urged pambondi,

Seven twenty three. Our, time here in houston's Morning News
right let's let's talk to ed Grzanski about The Pep
Talk that the. Secretary of war, pete hegseth gave yesterday
before we do let me just share a little clip
for those who. Haven't heard of any of it yet.

Speaker 13 (01:33:03):
Should, our enemies choose foolishly to challenge us, they, will
be crushed by The Violence.

Speaker 4 (01:33:11):
Precision and ferocity, of the war. Department in.

Speaker 14 (01:33:16):
Other words to our enemies fa fo.

Speaker 4 (01:33:23):
That sends a bit of a message? What Did, You,
think of the speech ed jrwzanski.

Speaker 15 (01:33:30):
Jimmy it's such speech. That people should both view. AND
read there's a lot in it i think you did
a great job in pulling out what, is the most
important part of it and that is to get across
to our own leadership and then by extension to our adversaries,

(01:33:54):
that the days of PowerPoint, and diversity equity and inclusion.
And EQUITY all of that it's gone and I think.
This was a come to jesus speech it wasn't as
much a pep talk as it was a shot across the. Ball,

(01:34:17):
to say it was marching orders yes it was and
a lot of people in. That room have played the
political game. So we've got too many flag officers we've
got too many flag officers. Who Have played the, game,
of politics and hegxeth has said look we need a

(01:34:40):
warrior ethos because there are. Other elements of government that
do negotiations there are other elements of government that do nation.
That do bridge building and the like we're the only
one in the military who actually has to go out and,
impose our will in a, lethal way so that first

(01:35:03):
of all our, adversaries aren't, inclined to try us out
and secondly if, they make the mistake.

Speaker 22 (01:35:10):
Of.

Speaker 4 (01:35:10):
Doing it we're going to win period so, when you
get right down to it what it's all about is
re establishing That War is what the So Called, defense
Department No longer. The defense department the war department does,
so that sends a Message Right there Just changing. It
from defense department to. War department we're not here to

(01:35:30):
defend we are here to conduct whatever Needs To be Done.
To protect the united states of america, and That may
be a subtle difference but i'm sure it's. Not, a
difference lost on our enemies.

Speaker 11 (01:35:42):
No.

Speaker 15 (01:35:42):
And Words matter So far too long the department of
defense has languished in terms of mission because it's been
asked to do all sorts of things that have nothing
to do. With ACTUALLY fighting and winning a war and
i think it's not an incorrect observation To Make To

(01:36:04):
say that after the, national security act in nineteen forty
Seven When they Changed The, name from war department to
defense department our capacity. To Win Wars has largely gone away,
gulf war one Is the one example but The. Rest
look at what happened in afghanistan look at the way

(01:36:25):
in which we wound up getting bogged down in nation
building instead of war fighting and winning a war so,
that we could, get the message. Across, eradicate the problem and, Then.

Speaker 4 (01:36:39):
Leave yeah so this was welcome and I'M glad, you
said all, that because i remember, as a young much
more Liberal person talking to my father about vietnam and
trying To convince him that the problem with vietnam. Is that,
we weren't, there to win we were you know We
were there, to try to prevent communism from Spreading But.

(01:37:02):
We weren't there to defeat north vietnam We WERE Just
there to help The, south vietdamese we did That, in
korea we did that in vietnam and. We've done it
in many places since, and it. Hasn't, worked out very.

Speaker 15 (01:37:13):
Well HAS it no it has not and i think
that it's an absolute crime to, those who put the nation's,
cloth on put themselves at harm's way and then find
out that they've been given rules of engagement that in
effect put them, in, short pants and, handcuffs and said,
now don't do this don't do that, instead of go.

(01:37:36):
Out find the. Problem eradicate the problem that? Sounds? Harsh,
GUESS what war is harsh.

Speaker 4 (01:37:44):
Yeah well i like our new military let's hope. We can, keep,
it past this. Administration Thank, you sir appreciate. Your time

the human part of it the people who, are actually
going to be laid off the possibility that some of these.
Layoffs COULD end up being permanent furloughs Because i wouldn't

(01:53:06):
be surprised if the trump administration doesn't use this, as
an opportunity for making more cutbacks doing some more weeding out,
of unnecessary departments in the federal. Government unnecessary positions in
the federal government, BUT at the end of the day
i think there's A big strategic, mistake being made By.

(01:53:27):
Democrats on this in particular truck sery he's the one that's,
going to get the blame for this and he's just
doing to try to pacify. The far left wing of
the party here's, a little Bit More Analysis on this
on this new york times poll and On The results
Of All this With Jessica. Patterson and caroline Downey From
National review This is the.

Speaker 49 (01:53:48):
New york times poll democrats should or should not shut
down the. Government if their demands, are not? Met should twenty.
Seven percent should not sixty Five percent that's a big number.
Telling democrats not to shut the government and guess what
we're about.

Speaker 50 (01:54:03):
To exactly and we see the radical wing of their party.
Taking over and taking control once again This. Is a
big number just amongst democrats and, when you look at
The Overall, numbers when you're talking about Republicans democrats. This
is not something that americans want they want to see
our government working and doing.

Speaker 12 (01:54:20):
The, things they're supposed to, Be.

Speaker 49 (01:54:21):
Doing yeah it's, Amazing To me carlin because you know
chuck schumer was out tonight talking About the very poll,
that me and, jessica, just talked about And He Says.
Oh this is, the new, york Times By The, way
he says, the new York Times His. Hometown, newspaper the
left new york times watch There are many.

Speaker 40 (01:54:39):
More polls that show republicans are blamed, the question in
That Poll Is. Biased biased in the new york times but.
It's biased. IF you turned the court That's True I.
Don't always believe the new york times you can be
sure of that AND.

Speaker 2 (01:54:58):
That wasn't a laugh track.

Speaker 12 (01:54:59):
Herely I there's legitimate laughter right there.

Speaker 8 (01:55:02):
Chuck schumer is flailing right now because he's Still Getting
flack for when he Helps. Senate republicans clear their filibuster
in march. He's just, trying to save his skin but
look the fact is that the public typically blames, the
party that Kills the clean. Bill and that's what republicans
have proposed and they also don't like it when a
party sabotages that whole. Process with a grab bag of.

(01:55:23):
Goodies democrats have their laundry list List so this is the,
