That just means that you can have anything you want,
but you have to pay for it. Our next meeting
is October two, first Thursday every month. Our main speaker
(03:05):
is actually our guest tonight is doctor Nagy, so you
don't want to miss it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Okay, But before we get started, I want to do
a shout out to the Henderson Conservative town Hall with
doctor hal Shaw. As you may remember, doctor Shaw was
a guest on our show and they met last Thursday.
And doctor Shaw always acknowledges and states that the Brinkleys
Patrician Garland where the inspiration for him for me, the
(03:33):
group Henderson Conservative. So a shout out to doctor how
Shaw and the Henderson Conservatives. So tonight our guest is
doctor or Nagy. Among his many talents, he is a
prestigious neurosurgeon, author, community leader and candidate for CD three.
(03:56):
He also will be our speaker at the town Hall
this third stay. So welcome doctor Nagi.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Thanks so much for having met Darling, I appreciate the
opportunity to be here anytime.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
So let's go back to our question of the day.
What are your thoughts on women filming themselves as they
ingest Thailand all capsules after President Trump and Secretary Robert
Kennedy Junior reference a Harvard study linking Thailand all to autism.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It makes me so sad to see people doing things
like that. The fact that so many people were willing
to harm themselves just to prove a point I thought
they were in vulnerable is sad. That they are willing
to risk the life of their children, their unborn children,
was awful. I think one lady who estaitn actually died. Yes,
(04:47):
I went to deliver. Liver failure is a horrible death.
It takes a few days and then it's a bleeding
and just they suffer a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Oh yes, both someone to try to spite someone else
given you information and they just disregard the information and
take the pills anyhow, I mean, what is in their minds?
It's just beyond that.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah. I think the divisiveness in our culture, the belief
that you can't trust anyone other than the people who
are within your circle, and that the authorities are all
working for their own interest and not for the common good.
Is really pervasive in our society, and we would benefit
to have people who could bring us together and sort
(05:32):
of show us that there's a common plan that includes
all of us that we can march forward with to
get better for everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
We often get callers to call in and they make
statements that are actually untrue, and we can demonstrate that
they're untrue, and yet they refuse to believe what actually
is true. It's like, I don't like to deal with
delusional people. It makes having a conversation with them very difficult.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
In today's today's era, where it's so easy to look
something up on Google or on chattybt and get factual information,
it's hard to fathom out why people continue to sort
of choose to believe something that's so obviously false and
refuse to correct themselves. I mean, just you know, take
five minutes, go look it up, and then you know
what you're talking about, and all the people around you
will respect you more because your opinions make sense.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
But you know, people suffer from TDS trumped and derangement syndrome,
and so no matter what he says, no matter what
he does, they're going to say and do contrary to
what he's saying. So there's nothing that we can do
about those people.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Yeah, and I think they live in a position of fear.
To be honest, I think most people who choose to
be on the far left are afraid of their communities,
of the people around them. They feel like they need
protection from the police or the central government figures to
protect them from the rest of the world, who they
feel is out to harm them.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
So our number is seven zero two two two one
seven two eight three. So, doctor Nagi, you are a
native Nevadan.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I've been here since I was four years old, Okay.
I was born in New York and and we moved
to Salt Lake City and got here by the time
I was four.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
And so you attended Bishop Goman High School and graduated
at the top of your class.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Then you went on to Yale getting degrees in biophysics
slash biochemistry and economics.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I did, I was, I was a one the top.
I wasn't a number one.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
And thereafter you attended and graduated from Baylor College of Medicine.
I mean, wow, I mean when I was riding your resume.
I just said, this is fantastic. I mean, this is
somebody that's well versed, well educated, and we haven't even
got to the rest of his resume yet, listeners, so
(07:57):
hold on. Well. I might also add that both of
your parents are Are they still alive.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Or yeah, the other they're still our physicians.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Are once to oncologists and the other is a psychiatrist.
I mean, the apple didn't fall far from that tree.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, they said before pretty high. My dad was the
first oncologist here in Las Vegas. So when he came oncology,
the treatment of cancer was still a new branch of science,
and he was the first oncologist chair, and it was
Las Vegas was a place where everybody was sort of
dying of lung cancer and delivery cancers that are drinking
and smoking themselves to death. So he made a huge
(08:35):
impact on this city, and he instilled a tremendous ethos
on me to get back to the community and to
you know, because this community is so good to my family,
I felt like responsibility.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
A wonderful So those are very impressive credentials. But there's
more listeners anyway. Our email is TWAC Radio Show at
Gmail or reach us on it at TEA E do W,
dot A dot C radio show and you're listening to
talk with a conservative.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Get ready, football, bads. The Los Angeles Rabs are back
at They're hungrier than ever in the City of Angels,
where stars shine bright. A new chapter run folds on
a gridired Buckle up because the Rabs are about to
electrify the NFL. All Los Angeles Rams games can be
heard right here on KSHB A and fourteen hundred and
(09:41):
one of seven points one FL Los Angeles Rams Football
sponsored by Steinersberg, a true of battle style pub.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
You're tuned into talk with a conservative where recent still
rules and free speech still matters.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
It's time.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It's time to cut through the noise and get back
to what really matters. Let's talk.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
So our guest this evening is doctor or Nagy and
he's running for c D three. Yes, that's correct, And
you just left the funds today And how was that?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
It was really well attended. We were at a new
restaurant that opened in the Sun Coast Hotel called Taste
of Asia, and we had about thirty five to forty
people show up, which is really nice. And I got
to talk to him about what we're planning to to
fix health care in America. And there were, you know,
some people who worked with the casinos, and people who
were doctors, and people who were owned a bunch of
(10:41):
different us a lot of construction people. It was it
was really positive. I got a lot of intelligent questions,
which is nice.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Well speaking of improving the healthcare in Nevada. Garland and
I are from California and we had Kaiser in California,
and so we just learned recently that Kaiser is going
to be coming to northern Nevada Areno area. So what
are your thoughts about that.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
You know, there's a lot of the folks who run
Kaiser are I've had a lot of time to think
very carefully about how the best way to run healthcare,
and they're under a lot of scrutiny because the folks
up in Silicon Valley are pretty sharp and they would
call them out for abuses in the system up there.
(11:28):
And the doctors who've worked for Kaiser that I've spoken
with are pretty happy with the system. I haven't heard
too much criticism about it, and so I'm very curious
to see if they're going to be able to perform
at the same level here in Nevada, or if the
competition here is going to be too difficult, because the
reimbursement rates for healthcare workers here are among the lowest
(11:48):
in the nation, and the nurse patient staffing ratios here
are incredibly difficult. When we had the pandemic and the
hospitals had to bring nurses in from all over the country,
a lot of the nurses, you know, said they would
never come back to Las Vegas because it was just
so poorly staffed and they felt dangerous to their licenses
and to the patients who they had to take care of.
And so Kaiser is used to working in an environment
(12:10):
that doesn't face any of those issues, and so I
wonder how they're going to be able to survive here
in Nevada.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Well, you know, Novada being a place.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Where a lot of people are you ready for the presures.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
A lot of people retired would think they would have
a better health.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Retire kettle boiled. Yeah, So I think the famous healthcare
system and smoked primarily organized around the largest purchasers of healthcare,
which are the casinos in the larger so the large
employers are in the stables end up having to be.
(12:47):
They're forced by the government they have more than five.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Hundred employees college football.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
If they have more than five hundred employees, they're required
to buy insurance. And when they buy insurance, they're going
to look for whoever provides the lowest health If they're
still allowed to call it healthcare by the government, well
then that's good enough. So there's a people who provide
the insurance are pushing the lowest possible cost the guys
(13:12):
who are buying it or forced to, so they're buying
it whatever the cheapest rate is. And because there's so
much turnover in the hotel industry here, they're not really
concerned about well the long term health of their employees,
and so they buy the cheapest product that they can
get away with. It's still allowed to be called healthcare.
And when the insurance companies then get the patients who
(13:33):
get sick, they delay taking care of those people, and
they delay, they oftentimes delay the care so long that
those people are no longer employable, and so when they
lose their employment, then they fall on the state because
they have to be on Medicaid. So in this way,
for a lot of the casinos on the strip, the
city of Las Vegas, and our state medicaid is subsidizing
(13:55):
the health insurance that those hotels are supposed to be
paying for, and that's a big problem a state.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You funded the Nutrition Coalition, which is a nonprofit that
provides healthy meals to school age children in an effort
to reduce obesity, diabetes, and improve learning. Please tell us
a little bit more about that program.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Sure, So we reasoned that here in Las Vegas, we
have the best chefs in the world, the freshest food
shift in every morning. We have some of the best
nutritionists at the NFL, the UFC, the NHL, the WNBA.
We should be able to provide the healthiest, most delicious,
nutritious meals possible to our children in schools. But instead
(14:36):
we've been feeding them whatever Young brand Foods wants to
feed them. And if we were to switch over to
providing them healthy meals, we could get a reduction in
obesity or reduction and diabetes reduction and long term health problems,
improved academic performance, to improve athletic performance, mood disorders, reduce depression,
reduce suicide, reduce school violence, reduce teacher assaults, maybe in
(14:59):
reduced cool shootings. So We thought that if we were
able to execute on this and we could prove it,
if we could show at the end of two years, say,
when we had a published study, that should we met
all those goals, that forty nine other states in the
country would want to copy what we were doing here
in Las Vegas. So Las Vegas is unique because we
have the fifth biggest school district in the country. That
(15:21):
means that we have a large enough pool of people
that if we have companies that are competing to provide
more nutritious food stuffs, there are enough sales that they
can make to reduce the to get economies of scale
so that the prices will fall enough that they can
compete outside of Nevada at a competitive rate with the
(15:43):
entrenched manufact food manufacturers and other parts of the country.
RFK is currently promoting this same agenda that we're on,
So we started about two years back. But we're so
happy that he's that Donald Trump has selected him and
allowed empowered him to start to push this narrative. We
think that here in Las Vegas we have a chance
to being among the first large scale of food producers
(16:04):
producing high quality foods for our schools, and it'll give
us a first mover advantage that allows a tremendous amount
of money to flow into Nevada as both the people
who are producing these food products and the consultants who
are teaching people how to implement these programs, and the
schools sell our services and goods to the rest of
the country.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
How long do you for that study will be published
or do you have any timeline on that?
Speaker 3 (16:25):
So currently we are We've engaged with people who work
with the school district and our first plan is to
start to talk to the charter schools about getting food
in place. We have some of the largest food producers
for the STRIP on board. We have some scientists. There's
a head of epidemiology from UNLV and the head statistician
for Toro, and the head nutritionists at Roseman and somebody
(16:49):
on the school board who works in public health at
un R, and we have the So we have all
the scientists available, we have some of the food producers,
and we have on those top nutritions. I think we
can I think we can execute. Our next goal is
to start to reach out to some of the chefs
in the city as we put together what the nutrition
plan is, what good nutrition looks like it's their challenge
(17:12):
to make it, to make the kids like it.
Speaker 1 (17:15):
Callers, our number is seven zero two two two one
seven two eight three, or you can email us at
Twakradio Show at gmail dot com, or you can leave
a comment on x under Twak Radio Show.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
And don't forget the Conservative Town Hall of North Ost
Vegas eleven forty five to one thirty at one eight
seven zero Wes Craig Road in North FoST, Vegas. It's
a no host lunch and our next meeting is October two.
This is this Thursday. It's always the first Thursday of
every month, and our speaker is going to be doctor Nagy,
so you can see him in person and ask him
(17:50):
questions right there. Put him on the spot if you
want to. That's what he's there. You can see how
he acts under pressure.
Speaker 3 (17:56):
Thanks Carlo.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
The study you just mentioned. I'd be really interested in
it once it gets closer to the end because besides
my econ background, doctor and dad taught it for thirty years,
I also have a master's in public health and I
have a in my filter Epian Biostats.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
We'd love to have you on board. I'm going to
ask my assistant to put you on for our next
board meeting in about two months. Okay, wonderful, And yeah,
we'd love to have your input and guidanceience issues because
the more the merrier on us, right, the more people
bring on board, the more likely artists, the better studies
you get.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, So, and going over your resume, it states that
you are politically active as the founder of the White
Coat Party and that is a Nevada grassroots organization comprised
of healthcare professionals. Share with us how and why this
organization was founded.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
So, I was the president of the Board of Medical
Examiners here in Las Vegas and about two legislator cycles ago.
I saw that the way that the laws were being
passed in the legislature were primarily by lobbyists, and the
entities that had the most well paid and most well
(19:14):
spoken lobbyists were able to get their laws passed. And
in the healthcare space, that was the hospitals and the
insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies and the hedge funds
of practice medicine and the personal injury attorneys. But there
was almost nobody out there representing the patients or the
people who take care of them. And so it seemed
to me that the laws were going to get The
laws of that next cycle did get passed in favor
(19:36):
of all of those entities in kind against the interests
of all the patients the people who take care of them.
And it looked to me like that was going to
happen that cycle, and the next cycle and every cycle
after that, because there's no way to combat these huge
dollar values that the other entities could bring to the table,
and so the laws that state in Nevada would end
up working against the people who lived here. So that
was kind of depressing for a while, and I thought, well,
(19:57):
what are we going to do about this? And so
the read a paper by any commish over at UNLV,
Matthew Woods, who had written a paper noting that there
are one hundred and fifty thousand people in Nevada who
work in healthcare. Well, that's five percent of our state's population.
And if they all have a significant other, that's ten percent,
And if they have one friend who cares about healthcare,
(20:18):
that's twenty percent. And if only half the people show
up to vote an election cycle, that's forty percent of
the electorate. And with forty percent of the electorate, you
can get pretty much anybody like did anything. So we
thought we should politically organize. So when I was president
of the board, I called the president of the nursing
Board and the dental Board and the didietary Board and
the autometry Board, and there's about a dozen of these
allied healthcare organizations. I was like, Hey, are you guys
seeing the same kinds of problems we are? And we're
(20:38):
just like, yeah, they did. I had one nurse breakdown
cry and she was so happy somebody's finally doing something
to help with healthcare. And so the so we organized
this party, and then we put together a slate of
fourteen candidates who we supported if they worked in healthcare.
At a first three family member who worked in healthcare
last election cycle, it's something significant to help, we supported him,
and ten of them got up there making law, and
(21:00):
so we thought we did pretty well with that. And
then we created a long agenda of policies that we
would support that we think, you know, will immediately improve
healthcare in Nevada. And so so we are out there
getting people together and raising awareness and we think we
can fix healthcare both here in Nevada and in the country.
It looks like our plans pretty good right now.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Well, I'm not sure that people in the listening audience
understand what white coat means for clinicians, because I've been
involved in the white coat ceremony when I taught at
Truau University, California. So could you explain a little bit
about white coat.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Well, sure, sure so. So at first we were calling
ourselves a Scrubs Party because we're all were scrubs. But
but then people didn't want to be scrubs anymore because
scrubs can't get no love. So we had to change
the name of the party and we became the white
Coat Party because there's a Red Party and there's a
Blue party, but we're the white Coat Party. We all
(21:56):
we cared about was health care. We're going to fix
health care America. And you can, you know, believe, you know,
for things, but that was the most important is to issue
facing America. It takes up It absorbs eighteen percent of
the US gross domestic product, which is a tremendous amount.
And we think we can take ten percent off of
that and go back to where we're in the nineteen
eighties when it only costs US eight percent of gross
semetric product. We have the best officer in the world.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Okay, listeners, our number is seven zero two two two
one seven two eight three, or you can email us
at TWAC Radio Show at gmail dot com and we're
waiting to hear from you. This is supposed to be
a conversation, so come on and join us. Okay, doctor Nagy,
(22:40):
you're considered to be one of the top neural surgeons
in Nevada. How does one get to be a patient
of a top neural surgeon?
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Well, honestly, just call the office and we'll get you
on the schedule.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh okay, I thought you had to be referred by.

try to get you an appointment. And if you're in
trench company acquires referral or referral from your primary care,
we'll let you know and then you can call them.

Yes, yes, So with all that you're doing and you
decide to run for Congress? What brought about that?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
So, after working with the the White Coat Party and
seeing the way the laws are passed at the state level,
I thought I would run for Assembly or state Senate
and that I'd be able to affect those kinds of laws,
the ones that we're advocating for here in Nevada. And
when I went to talk to some political consultants about running,
(23:57):
they convinced me to run for Congress. They said, or
you're the best we've had in the Republican Party in
a very long time, and we'd love to see you
up there. And it took me quite a while to
agree because at first I thought, you know, what am
I going to do in Congress. I'm just one person
among the sea of you know, four hundred some people,
and you know, I know I can get this accomplished here.
But then I thought, you know, if we get something
(24:18):
like this accomplished, heareing about it of the law as
we want to pass. The insurance companies are very large
and they have a lot of money, and more than
likely they would be able to block whatever we'd accomplish.
Here at the federal level, and if we didn't have
somebody trying to defund US at that level and running interference,
there's no way we could do this at the state level.
So so I've been here, I talked, I talked to
the people here in Nevada who are a lot of
our legislators who are on board with us. I've talked
(24:41):
to the governor a little bit about it, and I
have another meeting following up with him. I talked to
the guy running the Republican running for governor in Arizona,
Andy Biggs, and he was excited about this. We're lining
up a meeting with the Vekaramaswami, a governor running for
a governor in Ohio, and I think if we get
him on board, I think we get all the other Republican,
all the other conserdered Republicans on board in the country.

You're listening to talk with a conservative which tradition meets truth?
Stay with us More truth, more insight, and more straight
talk coming up next.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I forgot to mention also, I mean, I was just
so impressed with your resume, doctor Naggy, But you're also
an author and one of your frequent topics is back
pain and deep brain stimulation. Can you explain what that is?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Sure? Patients with Parkinson's disease. They have sort of the
shakes and pilarrolling tremor and rigidity. And there's a circuit
in the brain that you can interrupt if you pass
an electrode so through the brain down to this area
of the subtlemic nucleus though, and it causes when you
(27:02):
turn the switch, their tremor stops and they can move
their arms smoothly. It's a really dramatic, dramatic improvement for them.
And it's one of my favorite surgeries because it's transformative
for patients.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And then also you've written numerous articles and research papers.
You're a consultant, a clinical lecturer, and educator. I mean,
when are you going to find time to run? You're
still practicing right now.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Yeah, but you know, I've slowed down a lot of
that stuff. Is are things that I've done in the past.
Stopped taking call this year so that I could run
for office. And I didn't think it was fair for
me to have, you know, done an emergency last night
and then be here trying to give a radio interview
and then have somebody that patient crashing or getting sick.
(27:52):
That's just not fair.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Sure, caller, whoever, just call, please call back, thank you.
And so can you tell people about your district City three,
so people who are listing who will know whether or
not they can vote for you.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
Sure. CD three is on the west side of Las Vegas.
It's sort of a Gowan and goes all the way
down through Summerland and then wraps around the south side
of the city to all the way down to about
Saint Rose Parkway, and it goes all the way out
to the border, so we're just below Paromp and then
(28:30):
all the way down to prem and Searchlight and Laughlin
are containing this district. It's three hundred and fifty thousand people.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Wow, And so you've already started making your journey and
meeting these constituents.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of good folks out there.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Are you enjoying that meeting the people?
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Oh yeah, I love meeting people because everybody's got a
really cool story.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
The people who came to Vegas are generally people who
came from someplace else, and that's a unique kind of
a person because it's who's got faith in themselves. You know,
they have the belief that, you know what, I'm good enough,
I'm gonna be able to go over there and build
something new, and that takes courage. Not everybody in the
country has courage. You know, when you travel to a
lot of different parts of the country, you see people
who were consumed with fear. You see people who you know,
(29:15):
their uncle told they couldn't do it, or their mom
told them they weren't going to be able to do anything,
and they internalize that and they're afraid to believe in themselves.
But you don't find that heir in Vegas. You find
dreamers and keep filled with courage. I love it.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Don't forget to call in at seven o two two
two one seven two eighty three and doctor Nagy. So
you know, we actually do a rubric on candidates high
and low and basically the experience things they've done, activities
and just so you know, you ainate very high and
we're not even including the education in there, you know,
(29:50):
so it's like you're not getting extra points because you've
got the you know, the doctor and everything like that.
But it's basically community activities is what we look at. Oh,
and you do very well well.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
We try to give back, like I say, you know,
I mean, it's it's it's our city and we're going
to have the kind of city that we go out
there and work to build.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And your day job is saving lives.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah, so that is really uh the servant mentality. Oh,
we have a caller.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Hello, caller Alex Mila'm a physician in town.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Oh, thank you for calling, and you have a question
for adopting him.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I do I do you know? I know that he
is a big proponent for physicians and nurses and you know,
improving the quality of healthcare in Nevada. I wanted to
hear if I'm kind of what his plan was for
making health care better in Nevada.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Sure, thank you, caller, Thanks for asking. So. So, the
idea is that in America in the nineteen eighties, we
had the best health care in the world and it
cosses eight percent of gross domestic product. Today it costs
US more than twice that eighteen percent of gross domestic product,
and we have the worst quality of healthcare of any
(31:07):
developed country. Warren Buffett said that if we don't do
something to solve this, we're not going to be able
to compete on an international basis with the rising economies
of the world of China and India and the other
arising economies, so we're going to have to address it,
but he didn't say what the nature of the problem
was or what we're going to have to do to
fix it. And the reason we're in that situation is
(31:27):
because currently the entities that provide health insurance in this
country are publicly traded corporations. In the nineteen eighties, they
were all mutual insurance companies. And the difference is is
that the CEO of a publicly traded health insurance company
has two objectives. The first is to charge the absolute
maximum amount of money that he can extract from all
(31:49):
of the employers in the state, and the second is
to provide as little care as possible. And to the
extent to which the CEO maximizes those two goals, he
maximizes profits for the company sharehold revenue and his opponents.
That's obviously not in the interest of the people of
our community. In the nineteen eighties and the mutual insurance
company model, the CEO's incentives were still to negotiate hard
(32:11):
with people like me and the people of the hospitals
for low prices, but there is no incentive to deny
care because if they denied care, the people who owned
the company. All the policy will result the patients basically
would fire him. And so in that situation, the CEO's
objectives were to provide the highest quality care for the
lowest possible price, which is exactly aligned with the incentives
for the patients. So in Nevada we have the ability
(32:34):
to provide licenses to insurance agents to provide license so
the kinds of entities that are allowed to sell insurance
in our state. So we can pass regulations that favor
mutual insurance companies and disincentivize publicly traded health insurance companies.
And in this way, over five years we can transition
complete to the mutual insurance company model, and we'll be
able to save that perhaps a billion dollars a year
(32:55):
that gets siphoned out of our state and goes to
Wall Street, where it goes to investors in China, Russia,
Saudi Arabia and the central banks of Europe. Instead, that
money will stay here in Nevada, recirculating our economy and
everywhere it will be a lot wealthier.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Okay, So I guess the callers are waiting to come
to the town hall on Thursday. That's conservative town hall
of North Las Vegas to meet doctor Nagy in person
with their questions. But we appreciate the last caller and
so doctor Nagy, prior to this campaign cycle you donated
(33:32):
to Democrats, you actually were a registered Democrat. Please share
your journey from Democrat to Republican with our listeners. Please.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Oh sure, I'm happy to address that and thank you
for asking. You know, as a neurosurgeon with a lifelong
interest in improving our community, I've donated both Republicans and
Democrats over the years when I believe it would make
a difference. Some people are asking me and now find
donations to Democrats being not Republican enough to run for office.
Remember Tulsea Gabbert RFK, Donald Trump, and Ronald Reagan and
(34:04):
Ate Lincoln were all Democrats before they were Republicans. The
real story is what I've been doing since twenty twenty
here in Las Vegas. You know, when a COVID nineteen hit,
I worked with two doctors to identify a generic drug,
saving two out of every three IC patients who had COVID,
and when we were seeing a lot of people survive,
(34:26):
and then the hospital suddenly banned it, ignoring Trump's right
to try laws and ignoring doctor's right to prescribe medications
off label. So hundreds of people in our city died
when they might have otherwise have been saved. I tried
to contact our state leaders, mostly Democrats at the time,
to try to get them to reverse these laws or
to pay attention to the fact so many people were
(34:47):
dying and we had a way to stop it. And
the way that you get in to talk to those
leaders was you donate to their campaign, so they'll, you know,
spend five minutes talking to you and let's use tell
your story. And that is how it was. I donated,
and I will tell you what. Not one of them listened.
Not one of them lifted a finger to help the
hundreds and hundreds of people dying from COVID inner City
whose lives could have been saved. So I spent over
(35:08):
a half million dollars of my own money on legal help,
research and meetings with federal and state agencies. The science
that we had put together with solid but political and
pharmaceutical profits so went out. Ultimately I left the Democratic
Party discussed it in twenty twenty two. At this point,
it was just as I was furious as the Nevada
border Medical Examiner's president. I later received credible evidence that
(35:31):
the mRNA vaccines contained DNA with potential health risks. The
fd's response to my questioning on this confirmed my worst
fears that sloppy science in disregard for public safety, had
to inform their decisions. I therefore urged our state leaders
to halt the shots for most people unless they were
immune compromised. But again, our leadership ignored my pleas to
(35:52):
keep our people in Nevada safe. Our government suppressed life
saving treatments, forced people into mandates for ava scenes and vaccinations,
vaccinations and masks, and denied basic freedoms of life, liberty
in the pursuit of happiness. During the COVID apademic, I
saw Trump and RFK willing to challenge the system, and
(36:14):
the Democratic Party couldn't fix it. So that's when I
became a Republican. So if my critics think that donate
to Democrats disqualifies me, now, I'd ask what exactly have
they done since twenty twenty to protict the people of
our state. I guess is nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Thank you, doctor Nagi, you're listening to talk with me.
Las Vegas, Nevada. It's time for straight talk and real solution.

(03:05):

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Okay, But before we get started, I want to do
a shout out to the Henderson Conservative town Hall with
doctor hal Shaw. As you may remember, doctor Shaw was
a guest on our show and they met last Thursday.
And doctor Shaw always acknowledges and states that the Brinkleys
Patrician Garland where the inspiration for him for me, the
(03:33):

He also will be our speaker at the town Hall
this third stay. So welcome doctor Nagi.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Thanks so much for having met Darling, I appreciate the
opportunity to be here anytime.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
So let's go back to our question of the day.
What are your thoughts on women filming themselves as they
ingest Thailand all capsules after President Trump and Secretary Robert
Kennedy Junior reference a Harvard study linking Thailand all to autism.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
It makes me so sad to see people doing things
like that. The fact that so many people were willing
to harm themselves just to prove a point I thought
they were in vulnerable is sad. That they are willing
to risk the life of their children, their unborn children,
was awful. I think one lady who estaitn actually died. Yes,
(04:47):
I went to deliver. Liver failure is a horrible death.
It takes a few days and then it's a bleeding
and just they suffer a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Oh yes, both someone to try to spite someone else
given you information and they just disregard the information and
take the pills anyhow, I mean, what is in their minds?
It's just beyond that.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah. I think the divisiveness in our culture, the belief
that you can't trust anyone other than the people who
are within your circle, and that the authorities are all
working for their own interest and not for the common good.
Is really pervasive in our society, and we would benefit
to have people who could bring us together and sort
(05:32):
of show us that there's a common plan that includes
all of us that we can march forward with to
get better for everybody.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
We often get callers to call in and they make
statements that are actually untrue, and we can demonstrate that
they're untrue, and yet they refuse to believe what actually
is true. It's like, I don't like to deal with
delusional people. It makes having a conversation with them very difficult.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
In today's today's era, where it's so easy to look
something up on Google or on chattybt and get factual information,
it's hard to fathom out why people continue to sort
of choose to believe something that's so obviously false and
refuse to correct themselves. I mean, just you know, take
five minutes, go look it up, and then you know
what you're talking about, and all the people around you
will respect you more because your opinions make sense.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
But you know, people suffer from TDS trumped and derangement syndrome,
and so no matter what he says, no matter what
he does, they're going to say and do contrary to
what he's saying. So there's nothing that we can do
about those people.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Yeah, and I think they live in a position of fear.
To be honest, I think most people who choose to
be on the far left are afraid of their communities,
of the people around them. They feel like they need
protection from the police or the central government figures to
protect them from the rest of the world, who they
feel is out to harm them.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
So our number is seven zero two two two one
seven two eight three. So, doctor Nagi, you are a
native Nevadan.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I've been here since I was four years old, Okay.
I was born in New York and and we moved
to Salt Lake City and got here by the time
I was four.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
And so you attended Bishop Goman High School and graduated
at the top of your class.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Then you went on to Yale getting degrees in biophysics
slash biochemistry and economics.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I did, I was, I was a one the top.
I wasn't a number one.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
And thereafter you attended and graduated from Baylor College of Medicine.
I mean, wow, I mean when I was riding your resume.
I just said, this is fantastic. I mean, this is
somebody that's well versed, well educated, and we haven't even
got to the rest of his resume yet, listeners, so
(07:57):
hold on. Well. I might also add that both of
your parents are Are they still alive.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Or yeah, the other they're still our physicians.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Are once to oncologists and the other is a psychiatrist.
I mean, the apple didn't fall far from that tree.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, they said before pretty high. My dad was the
first oncologist here in Las Vegas. So when he came oncology,
the treatment of cancer was still a new branch of science,
and he was the first oncologist chair, and it was
Las Vegas was a place where everybody was sort of
dying of lung cancer and delivery cancers that are drinking
and smoking themselves to death. So he made a huge
(08:35):
impact on this city, and he instilled a tremendous ethos
on me to get back to the community and to
you know, because this community is so good to my family,
I felt like responsibility.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
A wonderful So those are very impressive credentials. But there's
more listeners anyway. Our email is TWAC Radio Show at
Gmail or reach us on it at TEA E do W,
dot A dot C radio show and you're listening to
talk with a conservative.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Get ready, football, bads. The Los Angeles Rabs are back
at They're hungrier than ever in the City of Angels,
where stars shine bright. A new chapter run folds on
a gridired Buckle up because the Rabs are about to
electrify the NFL. All Los Angeles Rams games can be
heard right here on KSHB A and fourteen hundred and
(09:41):
one of seven points one FL Los Angeles Rams Football
sponsored by Steinersberg, a true of battle style pub.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
You're tuned into talk with a conservative where recent still
rules and free speech still matters.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
It's time.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
It's time to cut through the noise and get back
to what really matters. Let's talk.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
So our guest this evening is doctor or Nagy and
he's running for c D three. Yes, that's correct, And
you just left the funds today And how was that?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
It was really well attended. We were at a new
restaurant that opened in the Sun Coast Hotel called Taste
of Asia, and we had about thirty five to forty
people show up, which is really nice. And I got
to talk to him about what we're planning to to
fix health care in America. And there were, you know,
some people who worked with the casinos, and people who
were doctors, and people who were owned a bunch of
(10:41):
different us a lot of construction people. It was it
was really positive. I got a lot of intelligent questions,
which is nice.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Well speaking of improving the healthcare in Nevada. Garland and
I are from California and we had Kaiser in California,
and so we just learned recently that Kaiser is going
to be coming to northern Nevada Areno area. So what
are your thoughts about that.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
You know, there's a lot of the folks who run
Kaiser are I've had a lot of time to think
very carefully about how the best way to run healthcare,
and they're under a lot of scrutiny because the folks
up in Silicon Valley are pretty sharp and they would
call them out for abuses in the system up there.
(11:28):
And the doctors who've worked for Kaiser that I've spoken
with are pretty happy with the system. I haven't heard
too much criticism about it, and so I'm very curious
to see if they're going to be able to perform
at the same level here in Nevada, or if the
competition here is going to be too difficult, because the
reimbursement rates for healthcare workers here are among the lowest
(11:48):
in the nation, and the nurse patient staffing ratios here
are incredibly difficult. When we had the pandemic and the
hospitals had to bring nurses in from all over the country,
a lot of the nurses, you know, said they would
never come back to Las Vegas because it was just
so poorly staffed and they felt dangerous to their licenses
and to the patients who they had to take care of.
And so Kaiser is used to working in an environment
(12:10):
that doesn't face any of those issues, and so I
wonder how they're going to be able to survive here
in Nevada.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Well, you know, Novada being a place.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Where a lot of people are you ready for the presures.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
A lot of people retired would think they would have
a better health.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
Retire kettle boiled. Yeah, So I think the famous healthcare
system and smoked primarily organized around the largest purchasers of healthcare,
which are the casinos in the larger so the large
employers are in the stables end up having to be.
(12:47):
They're forced by the government they have more than five.
Speaker 4 (12:50):
Hundred employees college football.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
If they have more than five hundred employees, they're required
to buy insurance. And when they buy insurance, they're going
to look for whoever provides the lowest health If they're
still allowed to call it healthcare by the government, well
then that's good enough. So there's a people who provide
the insurance are pushing the lowest possible cost the guys
(13:12):
who are buying it or forced to, so they're buying
it whatever the cheapest rate is. And because there's so
much turnover in the hotel industry here, they're not really
concerned about well the long term health of their employees,
and so they buy the cheapest product that they can
get away with. It's still allowed to be called healthcare.
And when the insurance companies then get the patients who
(13:33):
get sick, they delay taking care of those people, and
they delay, they oftentimes delay the care so long that
those people are no longer employable, and so when they
lose their employment, then they fall on the state because
they have to be on Medicaid. So in this way,
for a lot of the casinos on the strip, the
city of Las Vegas, and our state medicaid is subsidizing
(13:55):
the health insurance that those hotels are supposed to be
paying for, and that's a big problem a state.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You funded the Nutrition Coalition, which is a nonprofit that
provides healthy meals to school age children in an effort
to reduce obesity, diabetes, and improve learning. Please tell us
a little bit more about that program.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Sure, So we reasoned that here in Las Vegas, we
have the best chefs in the world, the freshest food
shift in every morning. We have some of the best
nutritionists at the NFL, the UFC, the NHL, the WNBA.
We should be able to provide the healthiest, most delicious,
nutritious meals possible to our children in schools. But instead
(14:36):
we've been feeding them whatever Young brand Foods wants to
feed them. And if we were to switch over to
providing them healthy meals, we could get a reduction in
obesity or reduction and diabetes reduction and long term health problems,
improved academic performance, to improve athletic performance, mood disorders, reduce depression,
reduce suicide, reduce school violence, reduce teacher assaults, maybe in
(14:59):
reduced cool shootings. So We thought that if we were
able to execute on this and we could prove it,
if we could show at the end of two years, say,
when we had a published study, that should we met
all those goals, that forty nine other states in the
country would want to copy what we were doing here
in Las Vegas. So Las Vegas is unique because we
have the fifth biggest school district in the country. That
(15:21):
means that we have a large enough pool of people
that if we have companies that are competing to provide
more nutritious food stuffs, there are enough sales that they
can make to reduce the to get economies of scale
so that the prices will fall enough that they can
compete outside of Nevada at a competitive rate with the
(15:43):
entrenched manufact food manufacturers and other parts of the country.
RFK is currently promoting this same agenda that we're on,
So we started about two years back. But we're so
happy that he's that Donald Trump has selected him and
allowed empowered him to start to push this narrative. We
think that here in Las Vegas we have a chance
to being among the first large scale of food producers
(16:04):
producing high quality foods for our schools, and it'll give
us a first mover advantage that allows a tremendous amount
of money to flow into Nevada as both the people
who are producing these food products and the consultants who
are teaching people how to implement these programs, and the
schools sell our services and goods to the rest of
the country.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
How long do you for that study will be published
or do you have any timeline on that?
Speaker 3 (16:25):
So currently we are We've engaged with people who work
with the school district and our first plan is to
start to talk to the charter schools about getting food
in place. We have some of the largest food producers
for the STRIP on board. We have some scientists. There's
a head of epidemiology from UNLV and the head statistician
for Toro, and the head nutritionists at Roseman and somebody
(16:49):
on the school board who works in public health at
un R, and we have the So we have all
the scientists available, we have some of the food producers,
and we have on those top nutritions. I think we
can I think we can execute. Our next goal is
to start to reach out to some of the chefs
in the city as we put together what the nutrition
plan is, what good nutrition looks like it's their challenge
(17:12):
to make it, to make the kids like it.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
Thanks Carlo.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
The study you just mentioned. I'd be really interested in
it once it gets closer to the end because besides
my econ background, doctor and dad taught it for thirty years,
I also have a master's in public health and I
have a in my filter Epian Biostats.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
We'd love to have you on board. I'm going to
ask my assistant to put you on for our next
board meeting in about two months. Okay, wonderful, And yeah,
we'd love to have your input and guidanceience issues because
the more the merrier on us, right, the more people
bring on board, the more likely artists, the better studies
you get.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, So, and going over your resume, it states that
you are politically active as the founder of the White
Coat Party and that is a Nevada grassroots organization comprised
of healthcare professionals. Share with us how and why this
organization was founded.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
So, I was the president of the Board of Medical
Examiners here in Las Vegas and about two legislator cycles ago.
I saw that the way that the laws were being
passed in the legislature were primarily by lobbyists, and the
entities that had the most well paid and most well
(19:14):
spoken lobbyists were able to get their laws passed. And
in the healthcare space, that was the hospitals and the
insurance companies and the pharmaceutical companies and the hedge funds
of practice medicine and the personal injury attorneys. But there
was almost nobody out there representing the patients or the
people who take care of them. And so it seemed
to me that the laws were going to get The
laws of that next cycle did get passed in favor
(19:36):
of all of those entities in kind against the interests
of all the patients the people who take care of them.
And it looked to me like that was going to
happen that cycle, and the next cycle and every cycle
after that, because there's no way to combat these huge
dollar values that the other entities could bring to the table,
and so the laws that state in Nevada would end
up working against the people who lived here. So that
was kind of depressing for a while, and I thought, well,
(19:57):
what are we going to do about this? And so
the read a paper by any commish over at UNLV,
Matthew Woods, who had written a paper noting that there
are one hundred and fifty thousand people in Nevada who
work in healthcare. Well, that's five percent of our state's population.
And if they all have a significant other, that's ten percent,
And if they have one friend who cares about healthcare,
(20:18):
that's twenty percent. And if only half the people show
up to vote an election cycle, that's forty percent of
the electorate. And with forty percent of the electorate, you
can get pretty much anybody like did anything. So we
thought we should politically organize. So when I was president
of the board, I called the president of the nursing
Board and the dental Board and the didietary Board and
the autometry Board, and there's about a dozen of these
allied healthcare organizations. I was like, Hey, are you guys
seeing the same kinds of problems we are? And we're
(20:38):
just like, yeah, they did. I had one nurse breakdown
cry and she was so happy somebody's finally doing something
to help with healthcare. And so the so we organized
this party, and then we put together a slate of
fourteen candidates who we supported if they worked in healthcare.
At a first three family member who worked in healthcare
last election cycle, it's something significant to help, we supported him,
and ten of them got up there making law, and
(21:00):
so we thought we did pretty well with that. And
then we created a long agenda of policies that we
would support that we think, you know, will immediately improve
healthcare in Nevada. And so so we are out there
getting people together and raising awareness and we think we
can fix healthcare both here in Nevada and in the country.
It looks like our plans pretty good right now.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Well, I'm not sure that people in the listening audience
understand what white coat means for clinicians, because I've been
involved in the white coat ceremony when I taught at
Truau University, California. So could you explain a little bit
about white coat.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Well, sure, sure so. So at first we were calling
ourselves a Scrubs Party because we're all were scrubs. But
but then people didn't want to be scrubs anymore because
scrubs can't get no love. So we had to change
the name of the party and we became the white
Coat Party because there's a Red Party and there's a
Blue party, but we're the white Coat Party. We all
(21:56):
we cared about was health care. We're going to fix
health care America. And you can, you know, believe, you know,
for things, but that was the most important is to issue
facing America. It takes up It absorbs eighteen percent of
the US gross domestic product, which is a tremendous amount.
And we think we can take ten percent off of
that and go back to where we're in the nineteen
eighties when it only costs US eight percent of gross
semetric product. We have the best officer in the world.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Okay, listeners, our number is seven zero two two two
one seven two eight three, or you can email us
at TWAC Radio Show at gmail dot com and we're
waiting to hear from you. This is supposed to be
a conversation, so come on and join us. Okay, doctor Nagy,
(22:40):
you're considered to be one of the top neural surgeons
in Nevada. How does one get to be a patient
of a top neural surgeon?
Speaker 3 (22:51):
Well, honestly, just call the office and we'll get you
on the schedule.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh okay, I thought you had to be referred by.
Speaker 3 (22:57):
Other Sometimes the insurance companies create rules like that, but
for our office, if you if you just call, we'll
try to get you an appointment. And if you're in
trench company acquires referral or referral from your primary care,
we'll let you know and then you can call them.
They were seven o two nine oh one four two
three three, and.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
You can repeat that too.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
It's seven oh two nine oh one four two three three, And.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
People should put that under speed dialt just like they
should put down seven oh two two two one seven
two eight three.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Yes, yes, So with all that you're doing and you
decide to run for Congress? What brought about that?
Speaker 3 (23:36):
So, after working with the the White Coat Party and
seeing the way the laws are passed at the state level,
I thought I would run for Assembly or state Senate
and that I'd be able to affect those kinds of laws,
the ones that we're advocating for here in Nevada. And
when I went to talk to some political consultants about running,
(23:57):
they convinced me to run for Congress. They said, or
you're the best we've had in the Republican Party in
a very long time, and we'd love to see you
up there. And it took me quite a while to
agree because at first I thought, you know, what am
I going to do in Congress. I'm just one person
among the sea of you know, four hundred some people,
and you know, I know I can get this accomplished here.
But then I thought, you know, if we get something
(24:18):
like this accomplished, heareing about it of the law as
we want to pass. The insurance companies are very large
and they have a lot of money, and more than
likely they would be able to block whatever we'd accomplish.
Here at the federal level, and if we didn't have
somebody trying to defund US at that level and running interference,
there's no way we could do this at the state level.
So so I've been here, I talked, I talked to
the people here in Nevada who are a lot of
our legislators who are on board with us. I've talked
(24:41):
to the governor a little bit about it, and I
have another meeting following up with him. I talked to
the guy running the Republican running for governor in Arizona,
Andy Biggs, and he was excited about this. We're lining
up a meeting with the Vekaramaswami, a governor running for
a governor in Ohio, and I think if we get
him on board, I think we get all the other Republican,
all the other conserdered Republicans on board in the country.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Okay, callers, please, our number is seven zero two two
two one seven two eight three. Turn off the TV,
stop watching the football game and get into the conversation
you're listening to talk with a conservative.

talk coming up next.
Speaker 1 (26:24):
I forgot to mention also, I mean, I was just
so impressed with your resume, doctor Naggy, But you're also
an author and one of your frequent topics is back
pain and deep brain stimulation. Can you explain what that is?
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Sure? Patients with Parkinson's disease. They have sort of the
shakes and pilarrolling tremor and rigidity. And there's a circuit
in the brain that you can interrupt if you pass
an electrode so through the brain down to this area
of the subtlemic nucleus though, and it causes when you
(27:02):
turn the switch, their tremor stops and they can move
their arms smoothly. It's a really dramatic, dramatic improvement for them.
And it's one of my favorite surgeries because it's transformative
for patients.
Speaker 1 (27:14):
And then also you've written numerous articles and research papers.
You're a consultant, a clinical lecturer, and educator. I mean,
when are you going to find time to run? You're
still practicing right now.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Yeah, but you know, I've slowed down a lot of
that stuff. Is are things that I've done in the past.
Stopped taking call this year so that I could run
for office. And I didn't think it was fair for
me to have, you know, done an emergency last night
and then be here trying to give a radio interview
and then have somebody that patient crashing or getting sick.
(27:52):
That's just not fair.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Sure, caller, whoever, just call, please call back, thank you.
And so can you tell people about your district City three,
so people who are listing who will know whether or
not they can vote for you.
Speaker 3 (28:08):
Sure. CD three is on the west side of Las Vegas.
It's sort of a Gowan and goes all the way
down through Summerland and then wraps around the south side
of the city to all the way down to about
Saint Rose Parkway, and it goes all the way out
to the border, so we're just below Paromp and then
(28:30):
all the way down to prem and Searchlight and Laughlin
are containing this district. It's three hundred and fifty thousand people.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
Wow, And so you've already started making your journey and
meeting these constituents.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of good folks out there.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Are you enjoying that meeting the people?
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Oh yeah, I love meeting people because everybody's got a
really cool story.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
The people who came to Vegas are generally people who
came from someplace else, and that's a unique kind of
a person because it's who's got faith in themselves. You know,
they have the belief that, you know what, I'm good enough,
I'm gonna be able to go over there and build
something new, and that takes courage. Not everybody in the
country has courage. You know, when you travel to a
lot of different parts of the country, you see people
who were consumed with fear. You see people who you know,
(29:15):
their uncle told they couldn't do it, or their mom
told them they weren't going to be able to do anything,
and they internalize that and they're afraid to believe in themselves.
But you don't find that heir in Vegas. You find
dreamers and keep filled with courage. I love it.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Don't forget to call in at seven o two two
two one seven two eighty three and doctor Nagy. So
you know, we actually do a rubric on candidates high
and low and basically the experience things they've done, activities
and just so you know, you ainate very high and
we're not even including the education in there, you know,
(29:50):
so it's like you're not getting extra points because you've
got the you know, the doctor and everything like that.
But it's basically community activities is what we look at. Oh,
and you do very well well.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
We try to give back, like I say, you know,
I mean, it's it's it's our city and we're going
to have the kind of city that we go out
there and work to build.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And your day job is saving lives.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Yeah, so that is really uh the servant mentality. Oh,
we have a caller.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Hello, caller Alex Mila'm a physician in town.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Oh, thank you for calling, and you have a question
for adopting him.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
I do I do you know? I know that he
is a big proponent for physicians and nurses and you know,
improving the quality of healthcare in Nevada. I wanted to
hear if I'm kind of what his plan was for
making health care better in Nevada.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
Sure, thank you, caller, Thanks for asking. So. So, the
idea is that in America in the nineteen eighties, we
had the best health care in the world and it
cosses eight percent of gross domestic product. Today it costs
US more than twice that eighteen percent of gross domestic product,
and we have the worst quality of healthcare of any
(31:07):
developed country. Warren Buffett said that if we don't do
something to solve this, we're not going to be able
to compete on an international basis with the rising economies
of the world of China and India and the other
arising economies, so we're going to have to address it,
but he didn't say what the nature of the problem
was or what we're going to have to do to
fix it. And the reason we're in that situation is
(31:27):
because currently the entities that provide health insurance in this
country are publicly traded corporations. In the nineteen eighties, they
were all mutual insurance companies. And the difference is is
that the CEO of a publicly traded health insurance company
has two objectives. The first is to charge the absolute
maximum amount of money that he can extract from all
(31:49):
of the employers in the state, and the second is
to provide as little care as possible. And to the
extent to which the CEO maximizes those two goals, he
maximizes profits for the company sharehold revenue and his opponents.
That's obviously not in the interest of the people of
our community. In the nineteen eighties and the mutual insurance
company model, the CEO's incentives were still to negotiate hard
(32:11):
with people like me and the people of the hospitals
for low prices, but there is no incentive to deny
care because if they denied care, the people who owned
the company. All the policy will result the patients basically
would fire him. And so in that situation, the CEO's
objectives were to provide the highest quality care for the
lowest possible price, which is exactly aligned with the incentives
for the patients. So in Nevada we have the ability
(32:34):
to provide licenses to insurance agents to provide license so
the kinds of entities that are allowed to sell insurance
in our state. So we can pass regulations that favor
mutual insurance companies and disincentivize publicly traded health insurance companies.
And in this way, over five years we can transition
complete to the mutual insurance company model, and we'll be
able to save that perhaps a billion dollars a year
(32:55):
that gets siphoned out of our state and goes to
Wall Street, where it goes to investors in China, Russia,
Saudi Arabia and the central banks of Europe. Instead, that
money will stay here in Nevada, recirculating our economy and
everywhere it will be a lot wealthier.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
Okay, So I guess the callers are waiting to come
to the town hall on Thursday. That's conservative town hall
of North Las Vegas to meet doctor Nagy in person
with their questions. But we appreciate the last caller and
so doctor Nagy, prior to this campaign cycle you donated
(33:32):
to Democrats, you actually were a registered Democrat. Please share
your journey from Democrat to Republican with our listeners. Please.
Speaker 3 (33:40):
Oh sure, I'm happy to address that and thank you
for asking. You know, as a neurosurgeon with a lifelong
interest in improving our community, I've donated both Republicans and
Democrats over the years when I believe it would make
a difference. Some people are asking me and now find
donations to Democrats being not Republican enough to run for office.
Remember Tulsea Gabbert RFK, Donald Trump, and Ronald Reagan and
(34:04):
Ate Lincoln were all Democrats before they were Republicans. The
real story is what I've been doing since twenty twenty
here in Las Vegas. You know, when a COVID nineteen hit,
I worked with two doctors to identify a generic drug,
saving two out of every three IC patients who had COVID,
and when we were seeing a lot of people survive,
(34:26):
and then the hospital suddenly banned it, ignoring Trump's right
to try laws and ignoring doctor's right to prescribe medications
off label. So hundreds of people in our city died
when they might have otherwise have been saved. I tried
to contact our state leaders, mostly Democrats at the time,
to try to get them to reverse these laws or
to pay attention to the fact so many people were
(34:47):
dying and we had a way to stop it. And
the way that you get in to talk to those
leaders was you donate to their campaign, so they'll, you know,
spend five minutes talking to you and let's use tell
your story. And that is how it was. I donated,
and I will tell you what. Not one of them listened.
Not one of them lifted a finger to help the
hundreds and hundreds of people dying from COVID inner City
whose lives could have been saved. So I spent over
(35:08):
a half million dollars of my own money on legal help,
research and meetings with federal and state agencies. The science
that we had put together with solid but political and
pharmaceutical profits so went out. Ultimately I left the Democratic
Party discussed it in twenty twenty two. At this point,
it was just as I was furious as the Nevada
border Medical Examiner's president. I later received credible evidence that
(35:31):
the mRNA vaccines contained DNA with potential health risks. The
fd's response to my questioning on this confirmed my worst
fears that sloppy science in disregard for public safety, had
to inform their decisions. I therefore urged our state leaders
to halt the shots for most people unless they were
immune compromised. But again, our leadership ignored my pleas to
(35:52):
keep our people in Nevada safe. Our government suppressed life
saving treatments, forced people into mandates for ava scenes and vaccinations,
vaccinations and masks, and denied basic freedoms of life, liberty
in the pursuit of happiness. During the COVID apademic, I
saw Trump and RFK willing to challenge the system, and
(36:14):
the Democratic Party couldn't fix it. So that's when I
became a Republican. So if my critics think that donate
to Democrats disqualifies me, now, I'd ask what exactly have
they done since twenty twenty to protict the people of
our state. I guess is nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Thank you, doctor Nagi, you're listening to talk with me.
