Sean Hannity opens the show examining how federal immigration enforcement has become a flashpoint for political activism and media distortion. He walks through recent events involving ICE operations, explaining how misinformation and selective outrage are reshaping public perception. Sean connects the dots between past policy decisions and today’s escalating tensions, arguing that enforcement itself is now being treated as the controversy. The hour sets the stage for why accountability and clarity matter when law enforcement is under constant scrutiny.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right
(00:01):
down are toll free telephone number if you want to
be a part of the program, it's eight hundred and
ninety four one Sean if you want to join us.
Heading into Super Bowl Sunday weekend. You know, it's funny.
I do want the Patriots to win. And Linda didn't
even know earlier in the week who was playing in
the super Bowl. And that's fine, it's not her thing.
(00:22):
I mean, it took her years. Do you know across
the plane means now, do you understand that part of
the least.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I have to be honest, I've never heard anyone use
that expression except you.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh my god, oh my word, Oh my goodness, what
am I going to do? But you know, the more,
it's funny where my mind is. When we go on
the road as a show, I define cities that I
visited based on food, and because when I'm on the road,
I eat. I just look forward to food that I
don't usually eat. If I'm on the West Coast, it's
(00:53):
in an out Burger. If I'm in Salt Lake City,
it's Crown Burger. If you know, if I'm in Chicago
or I'm in Illinois. I want Chicago hot dogs. He
had delicious, you know, a real good one from a
real good place, with the real you know, natural casing
snap to it, and the pickles and the relish and
the mustard and the onions. It's so delicious, and it's
(01:15):
just different than a New York cont dog. You can't
buy a New York cont dog even in New York
City anymore, that's any good. I mean, they all have
some bread umbrellas. None of them have real cebrettes. It's
I mean, with the natural casing, delicious.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
There used to be around the block from our radio studio,
the one old school, an old guy that ran a
hot dogs stand. He was the only one that had
a line that went all the way down the block
because he had the best tasting hot dogs. He had
the old school hot dogs. I'm like all these people
they'd rather go the cheap route with crappy dogs, and
(01:52):
nobody wants to buy their food. It's really unbelievable. And
that's all I really seem to care about, is well,
what is everybody eating for the you know the super
what are they eating this weekend? I don't know. I
guess that speaks volumes about me. I'm not sure what
it is, and you think it's you call it Manarexi.
It's not Manarexi. It says I try to be healthy.
(02:12):
I'm trying to be my healthierself. That's a good thing.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Listen. People have things that they care about. Your thing
right now is caring about what you eat. And you've
always been a carnivore. You like to eat all those
types of things and tomahawks and ribbis and burgers, and
you are definitely a foodoholic when we're on the road,
because I feel like it's like your time just to
enjoy food as opposed to when you're home and you're measuring,
(02:36):
like I had four ounces to this and I had
six ounces of that. But for you, it's all about
you know, making sure you have the right steak and
the right ribs and the right that's your thing, so
you know, have at it right.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
But the difference is like the stuff that you make
is disgusting, you know, cal shakes and carrot and ginger
shakes and it's like projectile vomit Linda Blair Exorcist food.
It's disgusting. And then you know, then you try to
make the case that air fried French fries are better tasting.
I'm not talking about healthy, They're definitely healthier. However, there
(03:10):
are good oils you can make French fries in. You know,
Talan oil for example, is healthier than you know, than
vegetable oil or whatever else they used to use in
these fast food places. But I still like, you can't
deny them McDonald's French fries. When these French fries taste great,
you just can't. But I just don't eat them very rarely,
(03:32):
you know, only when necessary, like when I'm on the road.
It's always necessary to eat. Anyway. The food part is
the fun part. I'd love to do. The cooking. The
idea that you think you're a better cook than me,
it drives me up a wall because you can't make
the things that I can make. You can't make it
the way that I can make them. You won't cook
them the right way. You won't put the right ingredients
(03:54):
in your food. You don't make why won't I? All right,
I have no interest in your spinach and artichoke.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
So if we have, if we have two things that
we're making, we can make the same things. Like I
make steak, I'm making steak for dinner tonight for the family.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Okay, what do you put on your steak before you
cook it?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
It depends right now. I have them resting and getting
to room temperature. So that's the first thing.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I didn't ask you. What do you how do you
season yourself?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
My god, do I have to answer it in the
exact what you're asking it. It's free will, my friend.
I'm going to put on it a little bit of butter,
a little bit of sea salt, a little bit of
ground pepper, and then I have a steak.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Seasoning, okay, and then how do you cook it? I
actually broil it. That's actually the right way to cook it.
The difference is the key to making great meat is moisture.
That is the key. That's why a fried turkey is
so much better than you know, use a turkey baster
(04:52):
and you take all the time based in the turkey
and it just falls off the hardened skin on the
outside of the turkey and nothing gets inside. You gotta
the turkey with you know, juices and moisture, and then
you don't need, you know, four hundred pounds of gravy
for the turkey and sim that's why I you know,
I like, you know, to fry turkeys. But if I'm
(05:15):
making ribs or steak, I'll use garlic, salt. Sometimes I'll
use a little bit of chili, pepper and pepper. How
do you make it? What is your perfect finish? How
do you like to eat your meat?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Well, when I make steak, I have two thick cook
New York's and I have two ribbis.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
And then I have to like it cooked. Let me
put it another way.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh my god, what is wrong with you? Anyways?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
How do you like it?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Then I put it in the oven, and then half
the family likes it medium well, and half the family
likes it medium. So it's a little bit, you know,
it's what I call black and blue. It's, you know,
a little bit of finish on the outside, nice crisp
on the top and pink on the inside.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
No, you don't want to crisp on the top. No,
it's delicious meat. Meat should be medium rare if I
like it read not raw. Maybe sometimes in a restaurant
you'll call it medium rare plus. Otherwise, the more you
cook that food.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
If sean you get a really nice crust on the top,
or you can do it.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I don't want to crust No, if you, if you,
you don't know what.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You missed until you had it done right. See that's
why I'm a better cook. No, you know, I think
the audience would agree with me.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
What are the architects of this twenty twelve attack on
the US consulate and Bengd's You remember Clinton? Let me
remind you what difference does it make?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Remember with all the fact is we had four dead Americans?
Was it because of a protest or was it because
of guys out for a walk when night or decide
they go kill some Americans? What difference at this point
does it make?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Makes a big difference in the lives of families, and
a big difference in the in learning lessons so we
don't repeat errors. We had a CIA annex not far away.
I've interviewed the guys that were there, that were begging
to go help these people when Ambassador Stevens was killed. Anyway,
one of the architects of this deadly twenty twelve attack
on our consulate in Benghazi in Libya had been arrested
(07:08):
now and is being prosecuted. Thanks to the likes of
Pam Bondi, Cash Betel and Judge Jannine Piro and Cash
and Judge Piro are going to be on Hennity tonight
to discuss it and thank goodness that they did it.
You know, this is outrageous. You know, this is the difference.
You know, in the last year, the FBI was able
(07:31):
to get six of America's top ten most wanted. In
the entire four years of Biden, they got four because
they were so busy with their weaponization. I am predicting
we're probably now very close to some type of military
action with Iran. Iran has been escalating their pressure campaign
(07:55):
on the eve of these so called talks taking place today.
I don't know what there is to talk. They don't
have a nuclear program. They unveiled an underground quote missile
city housing, a new ballistic missile that they're claiming can
reach Israel in twelve minutes and anyway. The Iranian Revolutionary
Guard linked outlets outlined a multi stage plan for war
(08:17):
against the United States. If they think going in with
their tough talk against Donald Trump is going to save them,
it will not. The State Department is warning Americans in
Iran to quote leave now. If you are hearing this
message and you're in Iran. It might be a good
idea to do just that. Not a good situation on
(08:38):
the ground there at all. The Dow has now topped
fifty thousand. I think it's like the fiftieth record since
Donald Trump has been president. When he took office the
doo what was it on January twentieth, Linda, I'm looking
(08:59):
at it. I can't eat it. On January twenty the
Dow was forty three thousand. Today it's over fifty thousand.
I think this is now the fiftieth record set by
President Trum. Little ups and downs, mostly it's been on
a really high upward trajectory. You look at the lowest
trade deficit in twenty years, lowest gas prices in five years,
(09:22):
lowest interest rates now we've had in four years, and
coming down further with a new Fed chair. I'm sure
that'll happen. Inflation now in check Brillians and committed investment
moneies that are accelerated by one hundred percent depreciation in
year one. They're going to be manufacturing automobiles again in America,
something that Obama said, those jobs are never coming back.
(09:45):
We will be manufacturing our own pharmaceuticals, our own semiconductor
chips in partnership with other companies, But it'll be right
here in the USA where earth mining is going to
continue in the most energy aggressive policies in the history
of the country, which has led to the lowest gas
prices again in five years. That's like a tax cut
for everybody, the largest tax cuts in history, and benefiting
(10:09):
working men and women with no tax on tips and overtime,
and helping the seniors out in the country, no tax
on social Security. I would say that is the American
people winning on all levels. Has every American? Is every
American feeling it? No, I want to be sensitive to
those that are not. Is there a transition in the
economy with artificial intelligence. Yes, that's going to be now
(10:33):
years in the making, and it's going to continue. As
we go to Minneapolis, a city councilwoman called Donald Trump
a domestic terrorist after proposing to give local illegal aliens
a million dollars members of the Minneapolis City Council. Now,
I did get some background on this deal that Tom
(10:54):
Homan made. You know, I think there's eighty some odd
counties within Minneapolis, and he made deals with eighty one
local law enforcement officials. Now they're not allowed to retain
and hand over to ICE people because of the sanctuary
city state policies that they have in that state. But
(11:16):
they all these law enforcement have agreed to call Tom
Homan personally and tell Tom Homan that these people are
in their custody and when they're going to be released. Now,
that is huge, a massive shift. That's law enforcement doing
their job and not going along with the psychotic politics
(11:39):
of people that have no problem taking criminal illegals and
putting them back on the streets. The New York Post
has the story anti Antifa psycho arrested in Minneapolis for
threatening to kill ICE agents. Self described ANTIFA member called
for the murder and assault of ICE agents in the
streets of Minneapolis. Well, where's where's Tampon? Tim and Mayor Smallfry,
(12:04):
a Biden illegal alien truck driver killed four Americans after
driving his truck into incoming traffic. I mean Democrats have
turned the two Minneapolis anti ICE agitators into national martyrs.
But here are four names you'll never hear in the
legacy media. Henry Iker, fifty years old, a mental ker,
(12:26):
aged twenty five, Paul Iiker aged nineteen, Simon Garrard aged
twenty three. I doubt Democrats will ever mention their names.
The driver the semi truck at the center of this
multi vehicle crash left four people dead in Indiana is
in ice custody after a detainer was placed on him. Anyway.
Indiana State Police said the fatal crash happened Tuesday around
(12:49):
four pm on State Road sixty seven with a truck
collided with a van, and the Department of Homeland Security
told Fox News that the driver entered the via Biden
era CBP you Know One the phone app entry in
December of twenty twenty four. In Indiana, State Police, citing
(13:10):
the j County Coroner's office, identified the four victims. Anyway,
the driver swerved into oncoming traffic and a head on collision.
Christian McLaughlin said, not only was this illegal released into
our country by Biden using the CBP one app, but
he was also given a commercials driver's license in Pennsylvania
(13:31):
by Governor Shapiro under his leadership. If you call it leadership,
the dot crackdown is pulling hundreds of English illiterate illegal
truckers off the road they have to. In the case
in Florida, where these innocent people died. We found out,
Oh he had a license in Washington State, no a
(13:53):
license in California. He couldn't read English, and he couldn't
even read road signs. It's unbelievable. By the way, school
rules that let students leave class to protest ICE have
failing academic records. We'll get into this later in the program.
I mean this, I mean, this story really makes my
blood boil. It makes me so angry. I mean, you
(14:16):
have a case. This is out of Washington State. Cascade
Middle School took kids to an anti ICE protest during
school hours. They didn't inform the parents. Unbelievable, Linda, can
you believe the dows over fifty thousand? And I don't.
That's not my main psummer. Well, I mean, obviously there's
(14:37):
a lot of confidence in Trump policies. That's Wall Street's
reaction to that, and I'm not saying it's going to
stay perfect. I don't tell people what investments to make.
I just tell people what I do, And you know,
you have to make do your own due diligence, make
up your own mind. But immigration and enforcement, by the way,
one little side note. This was an article I read today.
(14:58):
Immigration sanity and two million people between people that's self
deported and the seven hundred thousand that they've gotten rid of. Well,
guess what that means, Less competition for jobs. That means
higher wages, supply and demand. Less supply, you know, greater
demand increases wages. It also lowers the price of rent
(15:19):
for a lot of people, which is great for people's
that's the free market's rank control in action. Eight hundred
and nine one, Shawn is our number. You want to
be a part of the program. Doctor Oz, of course,
is the seventeenth administrator of the Centers for Medicare Medicaid,
and he's here to talk about something that should be
(15:39):
on everybody's mind, and that's healthcare and the president's efforts
to lower the costs of healthcare and prescription drug care
and the President announcing that dozens of the most commonly
used prescription drugs will now be available at dramatic discounts,
most favorable nation pricing. That's part one of what we're
(16:00):
going to talk to him about. And we'll talk about
the MAHA movement. Well, they're going to talk about the
fraud and the Medicare system. Doctor Oz. Great to have you,
my friend, how are you?
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I loving life? And you beautifully summarize what launched last night,
which is trumprx dot gov, which everyone listening should think
of going to. It's free, but you want to check
to make sure that the medications that you are paying
for are at the best price possible. And the President
has had all of the wonderful work that he's championed
(16:32):
around Most favor Dation Drug pricing. Put all those prices
on trump rx dot gov, so folks know for sure
if they're getting the best price. And by the way,
when you're there, if you're on one of those medications,
we can give you a coupon. You can print it,
you can put it in your wallet, in your phone,
laws digitally if you desire, and then go to a
drug store or have a specialty pharmacy wherever you get
(16:53):
your medication from the manufacturer and you'll get those prices
that US government has negotiated. So I want to take
a step back into everybody. So I mean, you know,
but I want to be on the same page because
it's such a critical issue. Is most favorite NS drug pricing?
What does that mean? Well, you probably don't know this,
but until today, if you bought the average grand medication
in America, you would pay three times more on average
(17:16):
than that same medication sold overseas, even if it was
made in America, even if it was made the same factory.
And that's because pharmaceutical companies have been getting away with
the president. And you know he has a powerful personality.
Sean you've you've dealt with it for years, has said,
he's not toddling that anymore. It's not fair, it's not right.
It's global freeloading. So he demanded in this syst he
(17:39):
demanded that Department doing companies come into compliance and in fairness.
When we actually went to them and said the President's upset,
they all look back at us and said, you know what,
you know, you'd come knocking one day. You know, you
guys would figure it out one day. So we had
these great people came in the government to serve this president.
Chris Clump, John Brooks and Mornandez, great people, and they
(17:59):
worked together to get these great prices. And then the
president brought in world class people like Joe Jebia who
built Airbnb. Anyone's hurt of Airbnb, that's who actually built
the website with Courtein, And these are the guys that
actually billion as they are, could make something that works
so beautifully that we could have sold it and made
the government a ton of money if we wanted to.
(18:20):
But the President wise he held on to it and
made it available for everybody.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Right now, Well, you know, we've got to look at
the big picture when it comes to healthcare in so
many different ways. It really is infuriating to me. And
I'll be honest, I wasn't that aware of it because
it was very underreported on the issue of Okay, these
countries that have socialized medicine would get American pharmaceuticals at
(18:46):
much lower prices than we're being charged to American citizens. Now,
there's a whole process that these companies have to go
through to get FDA approval and get these medications to market,
and they usually spend billions of dollars and then they
only have correct me if I'm wrong, a ten year
window where they can make their money back and make
a profit before it gets open to generic variations of it.
(19:09):
And so that's that this is a very very competitive,
difficult business. But why would foreign countries because they have
socialized medicine, you know, get a lower rate than American citizens.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
That's insane because they can get away with it. The
irony of leading a country is if you don't ask
tough questions, you don't get answers that you can work with.
The President came in and said, enough's enough. I'm not
going to tolerate it. Same as NATO. By the way,
you know NATO, as everyone knows, there was an external
threat to Europe. President went over there and said, everyone's
could to put a five percent of their gross national
(19:40):
product or GDP, and that's okay. That's such your tax
for being in NATO, and we're going to pick up
the tab. And it's not like we're not paying. We're
still paying quite a bit. We're funding a lot of
the research, and that's okay, Sean. We're curing cancer, we're
helping kids get past the bit otherwise incurable diseases. And
these are the kinds of things that a great nation
does for its people, and the arrest of the world
benefits because we're discovering these wonderful cures. However, they do
(20:04):
need to pay once we discovered them, the same as
we need to pay, and especially when you see some
of the results of other in other countries, where countries
are pretending that they're helping their citizens, but they're not
giving them access to the same life saving medications we have,
which that of course raises our prices. You get upset
about it. So when we go to these other countries,
and the UK is a good example. We went to
(20:24):
the United Kingdom and you know, a great negotiators went
over there and just said, no more, no muss, you
got to deal with this. And the British said, all right,
all right, we've got to pay more, because we should.
We're going to catch up a little bit to what
the US is paying. That way, the US can pay
a little less. But let's look at some of the examples.
What does that actually do. I'll give you two concrete
ones that we presented for the president last night. As
you know, we went on Fox News and other networks
(20:46):
five times. It sort of launched the website again, Trump
rx dot gov. So the president sa, are, okay, first off, fertility,
we want to have more babies. One third of families
are under baby and their key medications you need for
that treatment are three four thousand dollars. What's under five
hundred dollars. It's ninety percent off I'll say it again.
It'st one tenth the price what it used to be
before today, and you can access it by going to
(21:08):
Trump or start up another good example, you know, by
the way, that will make us a lot of Trump babies.
I think we'll be happy about that.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
He's gonna want the babies named after him.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
But go ahead, yes, we'll come back to that. The
other big issue is weight loss, and you were talking
about it with Peter Harris's product and Peter Harrison byways
a superstartup. So happy you guys are working together. But
he's got a great solution, right, you know, for a
healthy meal, and that's you always start with great food
and exercises, you do. You look at I was with
you and Angsley by the way last week. I had
(21:38):
to tell everybody they looked like greyhounds. I mean, this
is a beautiful couple.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
I keep reading articles. Why is she dating Grandpa? I'm like,
good grief, it's very frustrating.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
No, you are a handsome couple. I was angry this
morning commenting on it. But the beautiful part about life
in this era is if you can't lose weight with
eating right, exercising and sleeping and the things that you
know are the first land therapy. We have medications called
gop ones. The president, as you know, their weight loss products.
He calls it the fat shot. But yesterday we announced
(22:12):
there's a fat pill. Now there's a medication you can take. This,
a pill that will also help you lose weight, made
by one of the time.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Is it as effective as say Ozembic or Manjaro or
zep bound or any of the other ones.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
It's actually Ozempic's pill form. It's the pill version of
the shot then company. And there's one made by the
other big company, Lily, coming out as well, and they're
not quite as effective, but pretty dark close. But the
beautiful part about all this is the pricing. Now we
can get these pills for one hundred and fifty bucks.
These drugs used to cost twelve hundred dollars. Now for
one hundred and fifty dollars. I throught the shots that's
(22:47):
worked as closer to two hundred and fifty dollars. You
can get great access to them now, Sean, this is
a big issue because the folks who are suffering from
obesity are living in impoverished parts of the country. They're
often suffering from other ailments as well. You can get
them to lose weight. You will save lives and you'll
save America tremendous amounts of money. We will actually more
than pay for the cost of the medications by reducing
(23:09):
heart attacks and strokes and kidney failure and all the
problems associated with that.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
But Sehn diabetes right, adult on set, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
And high pretension. But here's the big question. What is
the number one zip code for using these JLP weight
loss drugs. Number one in the country is drum Roll,
Upper East side of Manhattan. That's right. Rich people buy
these drugs. They're going to lose three pounds for Valentine's
Day and they'll take the menage. But what about the
poor people who are vulnerable and left behind and don't
(23:38):
have the resource. They just if they're having a weight problem,
they just suffer from the diabetes and hypertension and all
the other complications. So the President said, no, we haven't
do that anymore. We're going to make these medications available
from now on. You can pay cash, you can work
with your companies get them to match the price. There's
lots of options. And by the way, medicaid for the
governors out there we're dropping all the prices for your products.
(23:59):
So it's going to make it a lot easier to
afford to take care of Medicaid population. Which is the
ultimatation that.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
All right, let me ask you about healthcare in general,
and I want to detail this and we have about,
you know, about seven minutes, so you're gonna have to
talk fast. So if you look at Obamacare, what was
the promise every American would keep their doctor, keep their plan,
the average family would save twenty five hundred dollars per
family per year. Okay, the results are in. Millions of
(24:27):
Americans lost their doctors, millions lost their plan. The average
American is paying three hundred plus percent more. Many people,
over forty percent of the country they have one if
they're lucky to Obamacare exchange options. I would argue they're
bad and worse. And you know, we really have screwed
up the system. And we see for example, socialized medicine,
(24:49):
the National Health Services in Great Britain. You know, so
many people from Great Britain come here for medical care.
The single payer system in Canada. If you need treatment,
so many people in Canad if they can afford it,
they come to American hospitals, American doctors. What can we
do long term? He'll improve health insurance and lower the cost.
(25:11):
And tie that into the amount of fraud and how
much fraud are we talking about as it relates to Medicare,
et cetera.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
We estimate one hundred billion dollars of fraud and put
that in context cms the agency that the President and
Secretary Kennedy hask me to run does out close to
two trillion dollars a year. It's actually largest, it's the
largest agency we have because there's so many folks who
need healthcare, and we think that at least one hundred
billion dollars of that is not spent appropriately. It's fraudulent,
(25:44):
it's wasteful, it's inefficient, and for that reason, we've been
going after it. And you've been seeing the fireworks around Minnesota,
where we're going to defer some of their money if
we can't prove that they're spending at wisely California, where
Governor Newsom, instead of beginning with the actual crisis in
his own state, has been lambasting me with unrelated accusations
just so he doesn't talk about the real problems. And
(26:05):
we went out today today with a letter to State
of Maine, which looks a lot like Minnesota when you're
digging to the real levels of fraud, especially around things
like autism services, where they in Minnesota they are paying
moms to lie that their kids at autism so that
they could then hire more people.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
In the Somali community, wasn't an eighty percent autism right?
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yes, exactly. Trade is very very high in the Somali community.
And of course part of the issue is if you're
living in the Somali neighborhood and you are just honest
about your needs and all your relatives and friends do
the same thing, you can take care of each other's
kids and pretend that you're actually working to get better this
society went and in fact, what you're doing is stealing money.
The moms get paid and the babysitters who are supposed
(26:49):
to take care of the kids get paid. Of course,
there's no real benefits to society. But the bigger question
you're asking, I want to make us uplifting, because I'm
more optimistic today that before, you know. So. I called
you the day the president dominated me, and I think
I was excited to probably hear my voice and you
were helpful. God bless you and help and navigate a
lot of this as a good friend always is and
(27:10):
you always are. But the details of the solution all
come down to one basic fundamental reality. We have technology
now and AI is part of it, and people are
scared of AI, and I get it. But if used correctly,
AI could allow us to detect fraud, wasteed abuse almost
instantaneously and remediate it. It could reject money leaving the
building if not being spent right. It would also help
(27:31):
us direct care people need it, and we can also
not only empower beneficiaries patients, people who would better advice
about the decisions they can make, like you know, eat
more Peter Peter Harris's food, or exercise that Sha undoes
with martial arts or you know whatever. The other help
advice is go to Steve an hour earlier. But it
could also help people like me, doctors and hospitals and
(27:52):
folks who are the providers do a better job managing
your illness and your challenges and being there for you
when you need us, not when you can get an appointment.
And that's the way we will fix healthcare ultimately. And
I do believe that this is not just a pie
in the sky. I think within three years we will
have robots who will actually help with some basic manual
efforts within hospitals, nursing homes, et cetera. AI will drive
(28:15):
much of the initial conversations you have with the healthcare system.
If you live in rural America, and you know we
put fifty billion dollars. President is dedicated the largest sum
of money ever to help people rule parts of this country.
Many of them listen to the show. You know that's
going to help a lot, and that money shouldn't be
used to resize right size the system, to bring technology
to the forefront. Just the technology is helped in banking
(28:37):
and streaming videos and being able to listen to your
show and change so much of our lives. Has not
impacted healthcare the same way.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Honestly, you're like the smartest guy on healthcare that I've
ever met in my life. The beauty is if we
get rid of the waste, fraud, abuse and corruption, that
means more money for healthcare for people who really need it.
And if we manage the costs of it's that means
better care and that plays into health, wellness, fitness, nutrition, longevity,
(29:10):
things that are on people's minds. I could talk to
you for hours. I really did enjoy seeing you in
your beautiful bride over the weekend. I don't get to
see you enough. I know you're working around the clock.
We appreciate all the work you're doing. Please keep us
up to speed on all of this. Who are you
picking for the Super Bowl, Doug Ras.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
I'm going with the Pats, the Patriots. I went to
College of Baha, have no choice.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, I want the Pats too. I like Robert Craft.
All right, sir, thank you. Eight hundred and nine one. Sean,
If you want to be a part of the program,
Thanks to all of you for being with us. Right
(00:01):
down are toll free telephone number if you want to
be a part of the program, it's eight hundred and
ninety four one Sean if you want to join us.
Heading into Super Bowl Sunday weekend. You know, it's funny.
I do want the Patriots to win. And Linda didn't
even know earlier in the week who was playing in
the super Bowl. And that's fine, it's not her thing.
(00:22):
I mean, it took her years. Do you know across
the plane means now, do you understand that part of
the least.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
I have to be honest, I've never heard anyone use
that expression except you.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
Oh my god, oh my word, Oh my goodness, what
am I going to do? But you know, the more,
it's funny where my mind is. When we go on
the road as a show, I define cities that I
visited based on food, and because when I'm on the road,
I eat. I just look forward to food that I
don't usually eat. If I'm on the West Coast, it's
(00:53):
in an out Burger. If I'm in Salt Lake City,
it's Crown Burger. If you know, if I'm in Chicago
or I'm in Illinois. I want Chicago hot dogs. He
had delicious, you know, a real good one from a
real good place, with the real you know, natural casing
snap to it, and the pickles and the relish and
the mustard and the onions. It's so delicious, and it's
(01:15):
just different than a New York cont dog. You can't
buy a New York cont dog even in New York
City anymore, that's any good. I mean, they all have
some bread umbrellas. None of them have real cebrettes. It's
I mean, with the natural casing, delicious.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
There used to be around the block from our radio studio,
the one old school, an old guy that ran a
hot dogs stand. He was the only one that had
a line that went all the way down the block
because he had the best tasting hot dogs. He had
the old school hot dogs. I'm like all these people
they'd rather go the cheap route with crappy dogs, and
(01:52):
nobody wants to buy their food. It's really unbelievable. And
that's all I really seem to care about, is well,
what is everybody eating for the you know the super
what are they eating this weekend? I don't know. I
guess that speaks volumes about me. I'm not sure what
it is, and you think it's you call it Manarexi.
It's not Manarexi. It says I try to be healthy.
(02:12):
I'm trying to be my healthierself. That's a good thing.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Listen. People have things that they care about. Your thing
right now is caring about what you eat. And you've
always been a carnivore. You like to eat all those
types of things and tomahawks and ribbis and burgers, and
you are definitely a foodoholic when we're on the road,
because I feel like it's like your time just to
enjoy food as opposed to when you're home and you're measuring,
(02:36):
like I had four ounces to this and I had
six ounces of that. But for you, it's all about
you know, making sure you have the right steak and
the right ribs and the right that's your thing, so
you know, have at it right.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
But the difference is like the stuff that you make
is disgusting, you know, cal shakes and carrot and ginger
shakes and it's like projectile vomit Linda Blair Exorcist food.
It's disgusting. And then you know, then you try to
make the case that air fried French fries are better tasting.
I'm not talking about healthy, They're definitely healthier. However, there
(03:10):
are good oils you can make French fries in. You know,
Talan oil for example, is healthier than you know, than
vegetable oil or whatever else they used to use in
these fast food places. But I still like, you can't
deny them McDonald's French fries. When these French fries taste great,
you just can't. But I just don't eat them very rarely,
(03:32):
you know, only when necessary, like when I'm on the road.
It's always necessary to eat. Anyway. The food part is
the fun part. I'd love to do. The cooking. The
idea that you think you're a better cook than me,
it drives me up a wall because you can't make
the things that I can make. You can't make it
the way that I can make them. You won't cook
them the right way. You won't put the right ingredients
(03:54):
in your food. You don't make why won't I? All right,
I have no interest in your spinach and artichoke.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
So if we have, if we have two things that
we're making, we can make the same things. Like I
make steak, I'm making steak for dinner tonight for the family.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Okay, what do you put on your steak before you
cook it?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
It depends right now. I have them resting and getting
to room temperature. So that's the first thing.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
I didn't ask you. What do you how do you
season yourself?
Speaker 3 (04:19):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (04:19):
My god, do I have to answer it in the
exact what you're asking it. It's free will, my friend.
I'm going to put on it a little bit of butter,
a little bit of sea salt, a little bit of
ground pepper, and then I have a steak.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Seasoning, okay, and then how do you cook it? I
actually broil it. That's actually the right way to cook it.
The difference is the key to making great meat is moisture.
That is the key. That's why a fried turkey is
so much better than you know, use a turkey baster
(04:52):
and you take all the time based in the turkey
and it just falls off the hardened skin on the
outside of the turkey and nothing gets inside. You gotta
the turkey with you know, juices and moisture, and then
you don't need, you know, four hundred pounds of gravy
for the turkey and sim that's why I you know,
I like, you know, to fry turkeys. But if I'm
(05:15):
making ribs or steak, I'll use garlic, salt. Sometimes I'll
use a little bit of chili, pepper and pepper. How
do you make it? What is your perfect finish? How
do you like to eat your meat?
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Well, when I make steak, I have two thick cook
New York's and I have two ribbis.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
And then I have to like it cooked. Let me
put it another way.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Oh my god, what is wrong with you? Anyways?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
How do you like it?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Then I put it in the oven, and then half
the family likes it medium well, and half the family
likes it medium. So it's a little bit, you know,
it's what I call black and blue. It's, you know,
a little bit of finish on the outside, nice crisp
on the top and pink on the inside.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
No, you don't want to crisp on the top. No,
it's delicious meat. Meat should be medium rare if I
like it read not raw. Maybe sometimes in a restaurant
you'll call it medium rare plus. Otherwise, the more you
cook that food.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
If sean you get a really nice crust on the top,
or you can do it.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
I don't want to crust No, if you, if you,
you don't know what.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
You missed until you had it done right. See that's
why I'm a better cook. No, you know, I think
the audience would agree with me.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
What are the architects of this twenty twelve attack on
the US consulate and Bengd's You remember Clinton? Let me
remind you what difference does it make?
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Remember with all the fact is we had four dead Americans?
Was it because of a protest or was it because
of guys out for a walk when night or decide
they go kill some Americans? What difference at this point
does it make?
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Makes a big difference in the lives of families, and
a big difference in the in learning lessons so we
don't repeat errors. We had a CIA annex not far away.
I've interviewed the guys that were there, that were begging
to go help these people when Ambassador Stevens was killed. Anyway,
one of the architects of this deadly twenty twelve attack
on our consulate in Benghazi in Libya had been arrested
(07:08):
now and is being prosecuted. Thanks to the likes of
Pam Bondi, Cash Betel and Judge Jannine Piro and Cash
and Judge Piro are going to be on Hennity tonight
to discuss it and thank goodness that they did it.
You know, this is outrageous. You know, this is the difference.
You know, in the last year, the FBI was able
(07:31):
to get six of America's top ten most wanted. In
the entire four years of Biden, they got four because
they were so busy with their weaponization. I am predicting
we're probably now very close to some type of military
action with Iran. Iran has been escalating their pressure campaign
(07:55):
on the eve of these so called talks taking place today.
I don't know what there is to talk. They don't
have a nuclear program. They unveiled an underground quote missile
city housing, a new ballistic missile that they're claiming can
reach Israel in twelve minutes and anyway. The Iranian Revolutionary
Guard linked outlets outlined a multi stage plan for war
(08:17):
against the United States. If they think going in with
their tough talk against Donald Trump is going to save them,
it will not. The State Department is warning Americans in
Iran to quote leave now. If you are hearing this
message and you're in Iran. It might be a good
idea to do just that. Not a good situation on
(08:38):
the ground there at all. The Dow has now topped
fifty thousand. I think it's like the fiftieth record since
Donald Trump has been president. When he took office the
doo what was it on January twentieth, Linda, I'm looking
(08:59):
at it. I can't eat it. On January twenty the
Dow was forty three thousand. Today it's over fifty thousand.
I think this is now the fiftieth record set by
President Trum. Little ups and downs, mostly it's been on
a really high upward trajectory. You look at the lowest
trade deficit in twenty years, lowest gas prices in five years,
(09:22):
lowest interest rates now we've had in four years, and
coming down further with a new Fed chair. I'm sure
that'll happen. Inflation now in check Brillians and committed investment
moneies that are accelerated by one hundred percent depreciation in
year one. They're going to be manufacturing automobiles again in America,
something that Obama said, those jobs are never coming back.
(09:45):
We will be manufacturing our own pharmaceuticals, our own semiconductor
chips in partnership with other companies, But it'll be right
here in the USA where earth mining is going to
continue in the most energy aggressive policies in the history
of the country, which has led to the lowest gas
prices again in five years. That's like a tax cut
for everybody, the largest tax cuts in history, and benefiting
(10:09):
working men and women with no tax on tips and overtime,
and helping the seniors out in the country, no tax
on social Security. I would say that is the American
people winning on all levels. Has every American? Is every
American feeling it? No, I want to be sensitive to
those that are not. Is there a transition in the
economy with artificial intelligence. Yes, that's going to be now
(10:33):
years in the making, and it's going to continue. As
we go to Minneapolis, a city councilwoman called Donald Trump
a domestic terrorist after proposing to give local illegal aliens
a million dollars members of the Minneapolis City Council. Now,
I did get some background on this deal that Tom
(10:54):
Homan made. You know, I think there's eighty some odd
counties within Minneapolis, and he made deals with eighty one
local law enforcement officials. Now they're not allowed to retain
and hand over to ICE people because of the sanctuary
city state policies that they have in that state. But
(11:16):
they all these law enforcement have agreed to call Tom
Homan personally and tell Tom Homan that these people are
in their custody and when they're going to be released. Now,
that is huge, a massive shift. That's law enforcement doing
their job and not going along with the psychotic politics
(11:39):
of people that have no problem taking criminal illegals and
putting them back on the streets. The New York Post
has the story anti Antifa psycho arrested in Minneapolis for
threatening to kill ICE agents. Self described ANTIFA member called
for the murder and assault of ICE agents in the
streets of Minneapolis. Well, where's where's Tampon? Tim and Mayor Smallfry,
(12:04):
a Biden illegal alien truck driver killed four Americans after
driving his truck into incoming traffic. I mean Democrats have
turned the two Minneapolis anti ICE agitators into national martyrs.
But here are four names you'll never hear in the
legacy media. Henry Iker, fifty years old, a mental ker,
(12:26):
aged twenty five, Paul Iiker aged nineteen, Simon Garrard aged
twenty three. I doubt Democrats will ever mention their names.
The driver the semi truck at the center of this
multi vehicle crash left four people dead in Indiana is
in ice custody after a detainer was placed on him. Anyway.
Indiana State Police said the fatal crash happened Tuesday around
(12:49):
four pm on State Road sixty seven with a truck
collided with a van, and the Department of Homeland Security
told Fox News that the driver entered the via Biden
era CBP you Know One the phone app entry in
December of twenty twenty four. In Indiana, State Police, citing
(13:10):
the j County Coroner's office, identified the four victims. Anyway,
the driver swerved into oncoming traffic and a head on collision.
Christian McLaughlin said, not only was this illegal released into
our country by Biden using the CBP one app, but
he was also given a commercials driver's license in Pennsylvania
(13:31):
by Governor Shapiro under his leadership. If you call it leadership,
the dot crackdown is pulling hundreds of English illiterate illegal
truckers off the road they have to. In the case
in Florida, where these innocent people died. We found out,
Oh he had a license in Washington State, no a
(13:53):
license in California. He couldn't read English, and he couldn't
even read road signs. It's unbelievable. By the way, school
rules that let students leave class to protest ICE have
failing academic records. We'll get into this later in the program.
I mean this, I mean, this story really makes my
blood boil. It makes me so angry. I mean, you
(14:16):
have a case. This is out of Washington State. Cascade
Middle School took kids to an anti ICE protest during
school hours. They didn't inform the parents. Unbelievable, Linda, can
you believe the dows over fifty thousand? And I don't.
That's not my main psummer. Well, I mean, obviously there's
(14:37):
a lot of confidence in Trump policies. That's Wall Street's
reaction to that, and I'm not saying it's going to
stay perfect. I don't tell people what investments to make.
I just tell people what I do, And you know,
you have to make do your own due diligence, make
up your own mind. But immigration and enforcement, by the way,
one little side note. This was an article I read today.
(14:58):
Immigration sanity and two million people between people that's self
deported and the seven hundred thousand that they've gotten rid of. Well,
guess what that means, Less competition for jobs. That means
higher wages, supply and demand. Less supply, you know, greater
demand increases wages. It also lowers the price of rent
(15:19):
for a lot of people, which is great for people's
that's the free market's rank control in action. Eight hundred
and nine one, Shawn is our number. You want to
be a part of the program. Doctor Oz, of course,
is the seventeenth administrator of the Centers for Medicare Medicaid,
and he's here to talk about something that should be
(15:39):
on everybody's mind, and that's healthcare and the president's efforts
to lower the costs of healthcare and prescription drug care
and the President announcing that dozens of the most commonly
used prescription drugs will now be available at dramatic discounts,
most favorable nation pricing. That's part one of what we're
(16:00):
going to talk to him about. And we'll talk about
the MAHA movement. Well, they're going to talk about the
fraud and the Medicare system. Doctor Oz. Great to have you,
my friend, how are you?
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I loving life? And you beautifully summarize what launched last night,
which is trumprx dot gov, which everyone listening should think
of going to. It's free, but you want to check
to make sure that the medications that you are paying
for are at the best price possible. And the President
has had all of the wonderful work that he's championed
(16:32):
around Most favor Dation Drug pricing. Put all those prices
on trump rx dot gov, so folks know for sure
if they're getting the best price. And by the way,
when you're there, if you're on one of those medications,
we can give you a coupon. You can print it,
you can put it in your wallet, in your phone,
laws digitally if you desire, and then go to a
drug store or have a specialty pharmacy wherever you get
(16:53):
your medication from the manufacturer and you'll get those prices
that US government has negotiated. So I want to take
a step back into everybody. So I mean, you know,
but I want to be on the same page because
it's such a critical issue. Is most favorite NS drug pricing?
What does that mean? Well, you probably don't know this,
but until today, if you bought the average grand medication
in America, you would pay three times more on average
(17:16):
than that same medication sold overseas, even if it was
made in America, even if it was made the same factory.
And that's because pharmaceutical companies have been getting away with
the president. And you know he has a powerful personality.
Sean you've you've dealt with it for years, has said,
he's not toddling that anymore. It's not fair, it's not right.
It's global freeloading. So he demanded in this syst he
(17:39):
demanded that Department doing companies come into compliance and in fairness.
When we actually went to them and said the President's upset,
they all look back at us and said, you know what,
you know, you'd come knocking one day. You know, you
guys would figure it out one day. So we had
these great people came in the government to serve this president.
Chris Clump, John Brooks and Mornandez, great people, and they
(17:59):
worked together to get these great prices. And then the
president brought in world class people like Joe Jebia who
built Airbnb. Anyone's hurt of Airbnb, that's who actually built
the website with Courtein, And these are the guys that
actually billion as they are, could make something that works
so beautifully that we could have sold it and made
the government a ton of money if we wanted to.
(18:20):
But the President wise he held on to it and
made it available for everybody.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Right now, Well, you know, we've got to look at
the big picture when it comes to healthcare in so
many different ways. It really is infuriating to me. And
I'll be honest, I wasn't that aware of it because
it was very underreported on the issue of Okay, these
countries that have socialized medicine would get American pharmaceuticals at
(18:46):
much lower prices than we're being charged to American citizens. Now,
there's a whole process that these companies have to go
through to get FDA approval and get these medications to market,
and they usually spend billions of dollars and then they
only have correct me if I'm wrong, a ten year
window where they can make their money back and make
a profit before it gets open to generic variations of it.
(19:09):
And so that's that this is a very very competitive,
difficult business. But why would foreign countries because they have
socialized medicine, you know, get a lower rate than American citizens.
Speaker 4 (19:20):
That's insane because they can get away with it. The
irony of leading a country is if you don't ask
tough questions, you don't get answers that you can work with.
The President came in and said, enough's enough. I'm not
going to tolerate it. Same as NATO. By the way,
you know NATO, as everyone knows, there was an external
threat to Europe. President went over there and said, everyone's
could to put a five percent of their gross national
(19:40):
product or GDP, and that's okay. That's such your tax
for being in NATO, and we're going to pick up
the tab. And it's not like we're not paying. We're
still paying quite a bit. We're funding a lot of
the research, and that's okay, Sean. We're curing cancer, we're
helping kids get past the bit otherwise incurable diseases. And
these are the kinds of things that a great nation
does for its people, and the arrest of the world
benefits because we're discovering these wonderful cures. However, they do
(20:04):
need to pay once we discovered them, the same as
we need to pay, and especially when you see some
of the results of other in other countries, where countries
are pretending that they're helping their citizens, but they're not
giving them access to the same life saving medications we have,
which that of course raises our prices. You get upset
about it. So when we go to these other countries,
and the UK is a good example. We went to
(20:24):
the United Kingdom and you know, a great negotiators went
over there and just said, no more, no muss, you
got to deal with this. And the British said, all right,
all right, we've got to pay more, because we should.
We're going to catch up a little bit to what
the US is paying. That way, the US can pay
a little less. But let's look at some of the examples.
What does that actually do. I'll give you two concrete
ones that we presented for the president last night. As
you know, we went on Fox News and other networks
(20:46):
five times. It sort of launched the website again, Trump
rx dot gov. So the president sa, are, okay, first off, fertility,
we want to have more babies. One third of families
are under baby and their key medications you need for
that treatment are three four thousand dollars. What's under five
hundred dollars. It's ninety percent off I'll say it again.
It'st one tenth the price what it used to be
before today, and you can access it by going to
(21:08):
Trump or start up another good example, you know, by
the way, that will make us a lot of Trump babies.
I think we'll be happy about that.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
He's gonna want the babies named after him.
Speaker 4 (21:17):
But go ahead, yes, we'll come back to that. The
other big issue is weight loss, and you were talking
about it with Peter Harris's product and Peter Harrison byways
a superstartup. So happy you guys are working together. But
he's got a great solution, right, you know, for a
healthy meal, and that's you always start with great food
and exercises, you do. You look at I was with
you and Angsley by the way last week. I had
(21:38):
to tell everybody they looked like greyhounds. I mean, this
is a beautiful couple.
Speaker 1 (21:44):
I keep reading articles. Why is she dating Grandpa? I'm like,
good grief, it's very frustrating.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
No, you are a handsome couple. I was angry this
morning commenting on it. But the beautiful part about life
in this era is if you can't lose weight with
eating right, exercising and sleeping and the things that you
know are the first land therapy. We have medications called
gop ones. The president, as you know, their weight loss products.
He calls it the fat shot. But yesterday we announced
(22:12):
there's a fat pill. Now there's a medication you can take. This,
a pill that will also help you lose weight, made
by one of the time.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Is it as effective as say Ozembic or Manjaro or
zep bound or any of the other ones.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
It's actually Ozempic's pill form. It's the pill version of
the shot then company. And there's one made by the
other big company, Lily, coming out as well, and they're
not quite as effective, but pretty dark close. But the
beautiful part about all this is the pricing. Now we
can get these pills for one hundred and fifty bucks.
These drugs used to cost twelve hundred dollars. Now for
one hundred and fifty dollars. I throught the shots that's
(22:47):
worked as closer to two hundred and fifty dollars. You
can get great access to them now, Sean, this is
a big issue because the folks who are suffering from
obesity are living in impoverished parts of the country. They're
often suffering from other ailments as well. You can get
them to lose weight. You will save lives and you'll
save America tremendous amounts of money. We will actually more
than pay for the cost of the medications by reducing
(23:09):
heart attacks and strokes and kidney failure and all the
problems associated with that.
Speaker 1 (23:13):
But Sehn diabetes right, adult on set, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:16):
And high pretension. But here's the big question. What is
the number one zip code for using these JLP weight
loss drugs. Number one in the country is drum Roll,
Upper East side of Manhattan. That's right. Rich people buy
these drugs. They're going to lose three pounds for Valentine's
Day and they'll take the menage. But what about the
poor people who are vulnerable and left behind and don't
(23:38):
have the resource. They just if they're having a weight problem,
they just suffer from the diabetes and hypertension and all
the other complications. So the President said, no, we haven't
do that anymore. We're going to make these medications available
from now on. You can pay cash, you can work
with your companies get them to match the price. There's
lots of options. And by the way, medicaid for the
governors out there we're dropping all the prices for your products.
(23:59):
So it's going to make it a lot easier to
afford to take care of Medicaid population. Which is the
ultimatation that.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
All right, let me ask you about healthcare in general,
and I want to detail this and we have about,
you know, about seven minutes, so you're gonna have to
talk fast. So if you look at Obamacare, what was
the promise every American would keep their doctor, keep their plan,
the average family would save twenty five hundred dollars per
family per year. Okay, the results are in. Millions of
(24:27):
Americans lost their doctors, millions lost their plan. The average
American is paying three hundred plus percent more. Many people,
over forty percent of the country they have one if
they're lucky to Obamacare exchange options. I would argue they're
bad and worse. And you know, we really have screwed
up the system. And we see for example, socialized medicine,
(24:49):
the National Health Services in Great Britain. You know, so
many people from Great Britain come here for medical care.
The single payer system in Canada. If you need treatment,
so many people in Canad if they can afford it,
they come to American hospitals, American doctors. What can we
do long term? He'll improve health insurance and lower the cost.
(25:11):
And tie that into the amount of fraud and how
much fraud are we talking about as it relates to Medicare,
et cetera.
Speaker 4 (25:20):
We estimate one hundred billion dollars of fraud and put
that in context cms the agency that the President and
Secretary Kennedy hask me to run does out close to
two trillion dollars a year. It's actually largest, it's the
largest agency we have because there's so many folks who
need healthcare, and we think that at least one hundred
billion dollars of that is not spent appropriately. It's fraudulent,
(25:44):
it's wasteful, it's inefficient, and for that reason, we've been
going after it. And you've been seeing the fireworks around Minnesota,
where we're going to defer some of their money if
we can't prove that they're spending at wisely California, where
Governor Newsom, instead of beginning with the actual crisis in
his own state, has been lambasting me with unrelated accusations
just so he doesn't talk about the real problems. And
(26:05):
we went out today today with a letter to State
of Maine, which looks a lot like Minnesota when you're
digging to the real levels of fraud, especially around things
like autism services, where they in Minnesota they are paying
moms to lie that their kids at autism so that
they could then hire more people.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
In the Somali community, wasn't an eighty percent autism right?
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Yes, exactly. Trade is very very high in the Somali community.
And of course part of the issue is if you're
living in the Somali neighborhood and you are just honest
about your needs and all your relatives and friends do
the same thing, you can take care of each other's
kids and pretend that you're actually working to get better this
society went and in fact, what you're doing is stealing money.
The moms get paid and the babysitters who are supposed
(26:49):
to take care of the kids get paid. Of course,
there's no real benefits to society. But the bigger question
you're asking, I want to make us uplifting, because I'm
more optimistic today that before, you know. So. I called
you the day the president dominated me, and I think
I was excited to probably hear my voice and you
were helpful. God bless you and help and navigate a
lot of this as a good friend always is and
(27:10):
you always are. But the details of the solution all
come down to one basic fundamental reality. We have technology
now and AI is part of it, and people are
scared of AI, and I get it. But if used correctly,
AI could allow us to detect fraud, wasteed abuse almost
instantaneously and remediate it. It could reject money leaving the
building if not being spent right. It would also help
(27:31):
us direct care people need it, and we can also
not only empower beneficiaries patients, people who would better advice
about the decisions they can make, like you know, eat
more Peter Peter Harris's food, or exercise that Sha undoes
with martial arts or you know whatever. The other help
advice is go to Steve an hour earlier. But it
could also help people like me, doctors and hospitals and
(27:52):
folks who are the providers do a better job managing
your illness and your challenges and being there for you
when you need us, not when you can get an appointment.
And that's the way we will fix healthcare ultimately. And
I do believe that this is not just a pie
in the sky. I think within three years we will
have robots who will actually help with some basic manual
efforts within hospitals, nursing homes, et cetera. AI will drive
(28:15):
much of the initial conversations you have with the healthcare system.
If you live in rural America, and you know we
put fifty billion dollars. President is dedicated the largest sum
of money ever to help people rule parts of this country.
Many of them listen to the show. You know that's
going to help a lot, and that money shouldn't be
used to resize right size the system, to bring technology
to the forefront. Just the technology is helped in banking
(28:37):
and streaming videos and being able to listen to your
show and change so much of our lives. Has not
impacted healthcare the same way.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Honestly, you're like the smartest guy on healthcare that I've
ever met in my life. The beauty is if we
get rid of the waste, fraud, abuse and corruption, that
means more money for healthcare for people who really need it.
And if we manage the costs of it's that means
better care and that plays into health, wellness, fitness, nutrition, longevity,
(29:10):
things that are on people's minds. I could talk to
you for hours. I really did enjoy seeing you in
your beautiful bride over the weekend. I don't get to
see you enough. I know you're working around the clock.
We appreciate all the work you're doing. Please keep us
up to speed on all of this. Who are you
picking for the Super Bowl, Doug Ras.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
I'm going with the Pats, the Patriots. I went to
College of Baha, have no choice.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, I want the Pats too. I like Robert Craft.
All right, sir, thank you. Eight hundred and nine one. Sean,
