Speaker 1 (00:00):
He made in his closet, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Did you make this?
Speaker 3 (00:03):
No?
Speaker 4 (00:03):
This is a song on the radio. This I didn't make.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
You know, people make stuff and then that how it
gets on the radios.
Speaker 4 (00:10):
They make it version.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Now, this is closet full of synthesizers, and you ain't
making no music.
Speaker 4 (00:15):
I am. I just don't play my music on the show.
It's a bedroom. It's not a closet. It's not a
bedroom or a closet. It's a recording studio.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
You when they least, or when you when you bought
the townhouse, did it come with a recording studio or
was it a a two bedroom unit.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
There's two bedroom with an office. I'll have you know. Huh,
where's the office? Well, it's the recording studio. So so
what it was a closet, Billy? It was right. It's
not a closet.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
There's closet full of full of synthesizer stuff.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
The closet's a closet and there's more than just said.
There's a guitar in there, there's a compressors, amplifiers. Who
was in the closet right now? Milton, I keep his
creating there. It's good that you lock him in. It's
a it's a it's a big walk in closet. I
keep his h I keep his kennel in there. Can
he get water?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, there's water. I thought you didn't have water. You
told us a moment ago in the air that they
turned your water off. So that's a very good question.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Lack of payment. I'm assuming I have bottled water. No,
I don't have a water bell. It's included with the building. Actually,
it sounds like maybe you do and you just didn't
know it.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
No.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I poured him some bottled water into a little bowl. Oh,
that's so cute, and I put it in his c
So it's got electrolytes or it's what alkaline or.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Something like what French bulldog's crazy.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Yes, that's exactly right the way.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Did you all see the crowd yesterday in Utah for
the first Turning Point USA appearance or gathering in the
state since, Yeah, in Utah, since the shooting which took
place in Utah. This wasn't at the same location, obviously,
It was in Logan, Utah, and they had what I
believe was announced as the largest Turning Point USA crowd ever,
(01:56):
which kind of makes sense. It's been in the news
a lot, sixty five hundred plus in the crowd, it was,
it was big, and people are noticing that this turning
point USA isn't going away the murder. It didn't stop it.
As a matter of fact, it made it much more
(02:17):
larger and more powerful than ever. You know, I know
it's besides the point. But isn't there a lot of
Mormons in Utah.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
There seem to be. Yes, what's the point of that? Yeah,
you know, that's besides the point. You don't think there's
a connection there between, not at all between all this
to you? Maybe that maybe that that shooter in Michigan
thought there was which one was which? Now I can't
even keep up. That was the church guy. It's a lot. Now,
You're right, there's a lot going on. It's exhausting.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
You guys also mentioned in Minnesota and Michigan, which one
of them is going to be the first to just
leave the United States. I think Minnesota is making a
good run at it right now. They are fighting with
Trump over boys and girls sports. They don't want to
let that go even though there's a federal law. They said,
we'll just let us go with these state laws here
(03:02):
in Minnesota, and they're also still involved in protecting criminal
illegals in the state as Ice tries to round them
up and get them out of here. Folks in Minnesota, well,
the government mainly are saying not so fast.
Speaker 4 (03:18):
Well, you know one person that's down with the illegal
immigrants and their healthcare is Maxine Waters. Do you see
her face? Yesterday?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
She was standing behind whichever Democrat was up there telling
us it's Trump's fault the government shutting down. She looked
like a wax figure that had melted and then kind
of re you hardened up at she just got the
worst case of resting bitch face you've ever seen in
your life.
Speaker 4 (03:43):
Oh yeah, and have you seen recently there's a couple
of moments where she's on stage with Pelosi and she
almost looks comatose, like her face isn't movie right. Yeah,
she's frozen. Something's wrong with her. Did she crap her
pants or did she take fatanol? I don't know. Anyway,
She's on the east taps of the capital yesterday with
all the Democrats discussing the shutdown, and there's this white lady, uh,
(04:06):
some bond woman with a crucifix around her neck walks
up to interviewer, and you'd think Maxine Waters would know
this was opposition media. But that's besides the point.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
The healthcare of illegal aliens over a government shutdown, because
if the government does shut down, American, excuse me.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Stop it right there. We're not prioritizing.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
What we're doing is saying simply, we want to keep
the government open, and we want to work with the
Republicans and have a bipotisan agreement to keep this government open,
and health care is at the top of our agenda.
Speaker 6 (04:37):
Are Democrats demanding health care for illegal aliens?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
Democrats are demanding health care for.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
Everybody humans, no such thing as an illegal human.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
You know that. So they are demanding health care for
illegal immigrants. Yes they are.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
And by the way, whatever a Democrat tells you, here's
what we're doing, here's what we want. You just bet
it's the opposite. They want to keep the government open.
She said it twice and in less than thirty seconds. It's
all about wanting to keep the government open. Is the
government open?
Speaker 4 (05:09):
No, no, no, it's marvels.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
The Democrats wanted it this way.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Well, anyway, Donald Trump had some thoughts yesterday. Government shuts down.
Democrats had a plan, apparently to make sure they could
hijack the government, and now Trump has a response.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
Shutting it down. We're not shutting it down. We don't
want it to shut down because we have the greatest
period of time ever. I told you, we have seventeen
trillion dollars being invested. So the last person that once
they shut down is us. Now, with that being said,
we can do things during the shutdown that are irreversible,
that are bad for them and irreversible by them, like
(05:44):
cutting vast numbers of people out, cutting things that they like,
cutting programs that they like, and you know, you all
know Russell vote. He's become very popular recently because he
can trim the budget to a level that you couldn't
do any other way.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
So if we're going to start thinking, he'll get that.
He is anxious to use his catchphrase. He didn't use
it yet. What's that you fired?
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Trump loved the fire people, and now that the gunma
shut down, he said he weighed off in the middle
of it and started telling him, well, obviously you're not essential.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
You fired. He likes to say that he's got a
few catchphrases doesn't. He always like to say. Many people
are saying that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
He says, big, beautiful, whatever, the best the ultimates, it's
the highest quality.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Many such cases like we've never seen before that sort
of thing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, but you're fired. It's punchier. And he set it
on his show on TV, which was a big hit
back in the day.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
He hit a show. What was the show called, It's
before You'll tie it no matter? Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
By the way, the odds makers are saying, it looks
like five days is what odds are.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Shut down.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Last in more than five days, odds are at eighty
one percent. For over ten days or more than the
odds only down to about fifty nine percent. So looks
like the next five days, maybe five to ten, seems
to be where the betting money is going.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Right now, Oh that's right, you can bet on that.
Oh you can bet on anything.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Markets, the odds makers and the markets they're piping up.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
They're weighing in.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
That guy that's head of the I think he just
mentioned him, that Russell vote guy.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah right, yeah, don't you said.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It's difficult to predict the duration of the shutdown. Most
recent federal shutdown was in December of twenty eighteen, and
that went until January twenty fifth longest in US history.
According to the Budget Office, the shutdown costs the American
economy eleven billion. That's that ain't much money at all
(07:45):
these days in the government.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I mean, I feel like it is a lot of money.
Eleven billions.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Now they deal with trillions. Now, remember old Chuck what's
his face there? He needed a trillion and a half
dollars and then we'll just keep the government open.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Has that all he's asking for is a two million
dollars in an apol? Oh Cokay, this must be what
hell for the world here.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Hello newcomers and welcome.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Can everybody hear me?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Hello? Can everybody? Okay?
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I'm the Hell Director.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
It looks like we have about eighty six and fifteen
of you newbies today. And for those of you who
were a little confused, you are dead and this is hell.
So abandon all hope and YadA, YadA, YadA. We're now
going to start the orientation process, which will last about Hey,
wait a minute, I shouldn't be here.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I was a totally strict and devout Protestant.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I thought we went to heaven.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yes, well, I'm afraid you were wrong. I was a
practicing Jehovah's witness. You picked the wrong religion as well.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Well?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Who was right?
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Who gets into heaven?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I'm afraid it was the Mormons.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yes, the Mormons were a cracked answer a.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Walton and Johnson radio network.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I thought after midnight we was going to let it
all hang out.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Something.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That's a different, different way of going about it.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Yeah, they're doing things differently, and we don't have midnight
anymore now there Pete hagsas in charge. They got rid
of midnight. I don't blame them. The daens at nine pm.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Bad things happen at midnight or after, so you know,
probably shouldn't have it anymore.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Let's just do away with it. You go right to
bad at nine pm, and nobody stays up till tan.
What do you think you are, Jimmy Fallon or something.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
No, ain't nobody could stay up that late. But we've
been looking at these shutdown numbers. I know y'all like
it when I crunch your numbers for you. Gunman shut
down plenty of times since this graph is from nineteen
seventy six all the way up to well recently today.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
You are close to.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Okay, and the guvernment's been shut down plenty of times
by Democrats and Republicans. When you know, Reagan was president
Trump back the first time around, but also Jimmy Carter
most of his time, Bill Clinton several years shut down.
I didn't notice one glaring difference between the Republicans and
(09:56):
a Democrat. When a Republican shut the government down, Reagan
Trump mainly, and.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
It's really bad.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah, it's awful, and it lasts anywhere like one to
two maybe three days. That's pretty much all of Reagan's
every year shut down, but one two three days when
the Democrats like Carter, Jimmy Cardy y'all memory him, Belle Clinton,
and Bill Clinton, where they shut to go them but down,
it's for like twelve, thirteen, sixteen, eighteen, twenty two days.
(10:23):
So I would say, based on history, don't look like
this is gonna last too long.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
But then they blame the Congress. Well obviously, Yeah, when
a Republican's in charge and there's a shutdown, they blame
a Republican. When Democrats in charge and there's a shutdown,
they blame Congress. Boy, it's just amazing how the rules
will change. So quickly based on who's in charge and.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Who gets help from the media to explain these differences
to us, because the media has a great way of
sharing that with You put a microphone in front of
a Democrat and let them say anything they want to say,
and don't question them, don't check the facts, just let
them announce what they think. And then if you talk
(11:05):
to a Republican, immediately go back to the Democrat and say, well,
that wasn't true, was it.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
No?
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It just depends on who's in charge. That's all it
really boils down to. Yesterday, the White House had a
lot of guests, and as they often do, the Oval
Office was filled with reporters, and that's when this happened.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
What you're doing, I've often said Trump could cure cancer
and people would still criticize him.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
And it's true.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
What is your message to America that this potentially bring
us all together, get us on the same page and
have unity. And I'd like to see if some of
the kids with parents have what it means to you
to see President Trump get involved.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
With Well, we've made tremendous ris in cancer research, far
more than anyone who's done.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
I'm talking about cancer research and you know, Trump could
care cancer and they'd still be mad about.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It, specifically kids cancer. It looks like from the video.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Yeah, there was this little nine year old girl, cute,
little black girl with a big yellow bow on her head,
pretty white dress, beads around her neck, and she came
and she met President Trump, and that is when everybody
in the room was reminded that sometimes there are things
that are more important than politics.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
Anybody, would you let to see something of it?
Speaker 5 (12:15):
Yes, I'm letting my eyes at nine years old and
I was I had a blood of cancer called leukemia
when I was volunteer years old. I had to get
treated at seven different hospitals across this country. And I
had to have two bandmom transplants from one for my
dad and one for my mom. And I had to
(12:37):
spend many days in the nights in the hospital getting
punkies and yuki medicine, and me and my parents are
very worried, and I had to go through those seven
different hospitals to find the best treatment that can make
me better. And they ca Miss referred as President for
making everything happen today. So kids like me and Glad
(13:00):
and Starblo one today into.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Wow, all that without a teleprompter. I wish Joe Biden
could have done that.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
No, he couldn't know that. No, boy, the part where
she says lots of medicine and pokey, I know, I
know that got me right in the fields. Sweet little girl,
whose kid?
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Just some average American with a kid who had kids her?
That's I'm looking around the room and I see nobody
looked like you can't see the whole room. It's a
camera shot of the President.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
With several other people in the in the video, but
none of them looked like hers. Your race bading, this
has nothing is a Jasmine Crockett's kid. I think that's
Jasmine's daughter. Oh, mister kettotopy ridiculous. She's way too articulate
to be Jasmine Crockett's kid. Well, actually that's what Jasmine
Crockett used to talk like before she started getting all
the attention in the press.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
That does explain a lot.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
No, it was not missus Crockett's child or even younger sister.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yesterday, the Press secretary read a letter from Trump to
the Pharmaceutical Sea and I just want to remind everybody
this is what I voted for.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
As you all know the President signed in executive order
earlier this year to solve the problem of exorbitant pharmaceutical pricing.
According to recent data, the prices that Americans have been
paying for brand name drugs are more than three times
the price others similarly developed nations pay. The President is
determined to solve this problem and took further action today.
(14:25):
He has signed seventeen letters to pharmaceutical companies CEOs, and
I would like to read you one of these letters
to the CEO of Eli Lilly. All of these letters
will be provided to you following this briefing. This is
to the CEO of Eli Lilly from the President of
the United States. On May twelfth to twenty twenty five,
I signed an executive order delivering most favored nation prescription
(14:47):
drug pricing to American patients, to stop global fleet free
loading and guarantee that Americans pay the same prices enjoyed
by other developed nations. Right now, brand name drugs in
the United States up to three times higher on average
than anywhere else for the identical medicines. This unacceptable burden
on hard working American families ends with my administration.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
I mean, yeah, it's a nice start. Isn't it crazy?
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I mean, it's just so infuriating to know, especially if you,
you know, go to the drug store every now and then,
have some prescriptions filled and refilled. It you're paying three
times as much as other not third world country, it's
not the poorest of the other developed nations across the globe.
And our pharmaceutical companies just said, well, you know, the
(15:36):
government is probably paying for a lot of this, and
there's no in I mean, that's an infinite amount of
money coming from the government, So let's just charge everybody
more in America.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Incredible too, How this is everything the Democrats complain about
all the time, and yet they did nothing about it.
Oh no, it's they say Donald Trump is too radical,
and yet a lot of the things he's doing are
things that they've been demanding for decades.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Will both sides have been saying this is that when
they moved to capital of Israel or whatever.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
I don't know how that worked out, but the embassy
Trump Trump did it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Everybody else talked about it for thirty forty years and
they never did same with this pharmaceutical nonsense. Democrats and
Republicans both been saying out loud during election time, of course,
that they're gonna handle this, and ain't nobody handled it
till Trump come along. But what I'm noticing is the
pandemic from twenty twenty. It's still with us, if we
(16:27):
still be involved in them. I'll tell you how I
figured that in a minute. I can't wait to find out.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
So if you're not at work today or you're working
from home, you may be wondering what day is it.
It's humped in Walton and Johnson Radio Network,
He made in his closet, isn't it?
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Did you make this?
Speaker 3 (00:03):
No?
Speaker 4 (00:03):
This is a song on the radio. This I didn't make.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
You know, people make stuff and then that how it
gets on the radios.
Speaker 4 (00:10):
They make it version.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
Now, this is closet full of synthesizers, and you ain't
making no music.
Speaker 4 (00:15):
I am. I just don't play my music on the show.
It's a bedroom. It's not a closet. It's not a
bedroom or a closet. It's a recording studio.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
You when they least, or when you when you bought
the townhouse, did it come with a recording studio or
was it a a two bedroom unit.
Speaker 4 (00:33):
There's two bedroom with an office. I'll have you know. Huh,
where's the office? Well, it's the recording studio. So so
what it was a closet, Billy? It was right. It's
not a closet.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
There's closet full of full of synthesizer stuff.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
The closet's a closet and there's more than just said.
There's a guitar in there, there's a compressors, amplifiers. Who
was in the closet right now? Milton, I keep his
creating there. It's good that you lock him in. It's
a it's a it's a big walk in closet. I
keep his h I keep his kennel in there. Can
he get water?
Speaker 1 (01:03):
Yeah, there's water. I thought you didn't have water. You
told us a moment ago in the air that they
turned your water off. So that's a very good question.
Speaker 4 (01:10):
Lack of payment. I'm assuming I have bottled water. No,
I don't have a water bell. It's included with the building. Actually,
it sounds like maybe you do and you just didn't
know it.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
No.
Speaker 4 (01:19):
I poured him some bottled water into a little bowl. Oh,
that's so cute, and I put it in his c
So it's got electrolytes or it's what alkaline or.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Something like what French bulldog's crazy.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
Yes, that's exactly right the way.

She's on the east taps of the capital yesterday with

Well, anyway, Donald Trump had some thoughts yesterday. Government shuts down.
Democrats had a plan, apparently to make sure they could
hijack the government, and now Trump has a response.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
Shutting it down. We're not shutting it down. We don't
want it to shut down because we have the greatest
period of time ever. I told you, we have seventeen
trillion dollars being invested. So the last person that once
they shut down is us. Now, with that being said,
we can do things during the shutdown that are irreversible,
that are bad for them and irreversible by them, like
(05:44):
cutting vast numbers of people out, cutting things that they like,
cutting programs that they like, and you know, you all
know Russell vote. He's become very popular recently because he
can trim the budget to a level that you couldn't
do any other way.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
So if we're going to start thinking, he'll get that.
He is anxious to use his catchphrase. He didn't use
it yet. What's that you fired?
Speaker 4 (06:06):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Trump loved the fire people, and now that the gunma
shut down, he said he weighed off in the middle
of it and started telling him, well, obviously you're not essential.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
You fired. He likes to say that he's got a
few catchphrases doesn't. He always like to say. Many people
are saying that's the thing.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
He says, big, beautiful, whatever, the best the ultimates, it's
the highest quality.
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Many such cases like we've never seen before that sort
of thing.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Yeah, but you're fired. It's punchier. And he set it
on his show on TV, which was a big hit
back in the day.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
He hit a show. What was the show called, It's
before You'll tie it no matter? Okay.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
By the way, the odds makers are saying, it looks
like five days is what odds are.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Shut down.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
Last in more than five days, odds are at eighty
one percent. For over ten days or more than the
odds only down to about fifty nine percent. So looks
like the next five days, maybe five to ten, seems
to be where the betting money is going.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Right now, Oh that's right, you can bet on that.
Oh you can bet on anything.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Markets, the odds makers and the markets they're piping up.
Speaker 4 (07:16):
They're weighing in.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
That guy that's head of the I think he just
mentioned him, that Russell vote guy.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah right, yeah, don't you said.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
It's difficult to predict the duration of the shutdown. Most
recent federal shutdown was in December of twenty eighteen, and
that went until January twenty fifth longest in US history.
According to the Budget Office, the shutdown costs the American
economy eleven billion. That's that ain't much money at all
(07:45):
these days in the government.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
I mean, I feel like it is a lot of money.
Eleven billions.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Now they deal with trillions. Now, remember old Chuck what's
his face there? He needed a trillion and a half
dollars and then we'll just keep the government open.
Speaker 4 (07:56):
Has that all he's asking for is a two million
dollars in an apol? Oh Cokay, this must be what
hell for the world here.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Hello newcomers and welcome.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Can everybody hear me?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Hello? Can everybody? Okay?
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I'm the Hell Director.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
It looks like we have about eighty six and fifteen
of you newbies today. And for those of you who
were a little confused, you are dead and this is hell.
So abandon all hope and YadA, YadA, YadA. We're now
going to start the orientation process, which will last about Hey,
wait a minute, I shouldn't be here.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
I was a totally strict and devout Protestant.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
I thought we went to heaven.
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Yes, well, I'm afraid you were wrong. I was a
practicing Jehovah's witness. You picked the wrong religion as well.
Speaker 7 (08:39):
Well?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Who was right?
Speaker 4 (08:40):
Who gets into heaven?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
I'm afraid it was the Mormons.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Yes, the Mormons were a cracked answer a.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Walton and Johnson radio network.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
I thought after midnight we was going to let it
all hang out.
Speaker 4 (08:54):
Something.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
That's a different, different way of going about it.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Yeah, they're doing things differently, and we don't have midnight
anymore now there Pete hagsas in charge. They got rid
of midnight. I don't blame them. The daens at nine pm.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Bad things happen at midnight or after, so you know,
probably shouldn't have it anymore.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Let's just do away with it. You go right to
bad at nine pm, and nobody stays up till tan.
What do you think you are, Jimmy Fallon or something.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
No, ain't nobody could stay up that late. But we've
been looking at these shutdown numbers. I know y'all like
it when I crunch your numbers for you. Gunman shut
down plenty of times since this graph is from nineteen
seventy six all the way up to well recently today.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
You are close to.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Okay, and the guvernment's been shut down plenty of times
by Democrats and Republicans. When you know, Reagan was president
Trump back the first time around, but also Jimmy Carter
most of his time, Bill Clinton several years shut down.
I didn't notice one glaring difference between the Republicans and
(09:56):
a Democrat. When a Republican shut the government down, Reagan
Trump mainly, and.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
It's really bad.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah, it's awful, and it lasts anywhere like one to
two maybe three days. That's pretty much all of Reagan's
every year shut down, but one two three days when
the Democrats like Carter, Jimmy Cardy y'all memory him, Belle Clinton,
and Bill Clinton, where they shut to go them but down,
it's for like twelve, thirteen, sixteen, eighteen, twenty two days.
(10:23):
So I would say, based on history, don't look like
this is gonna last too long.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
But then they blame the Congress. Well obviously, Yeah, when
a Republican's in charge and there's a shutdown, they blame
a Republican. When Democrats in charge and there's a shutdown,
they blame Congress. Boy, it's just amazing how the rules
will change. So quickly based on who's in charge and.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Who gets help from the media to explain these differences
to us, because the media has a great way of
sharing that with You put a microphone in front of
a Democrat and let them say anything they want to say,
and don't question them, don't check the facts, just let
them announce what they think. And then if you talk
(11:05):
to a Republican, immediately go back to the Democrat and say, well,
that wasn't true, was it.
Speaker 7 (11:12):
No?
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It just depends on who's in charge. That's all it
really boils down to. Yesterday, the White House had a
lot of guests, and as they often do, the Oval
Office was filled with reporters, and that's when this happened.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
What you're doing, I've often said Trump could cure cancer
and people would still criticize him.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
And it's true.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
What is your message to America that this potentially bring
us all together, get us on the same page and
have unity. And I'd like to see if some of
the kids with parents have what it means to you
to see President Trump get involved.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
With Well, we've made tremendous ris in cancer research, far
more than anyone who's done.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
I'm talking about cancer research and you know, Trump could
care cancer and they'd still be mad about.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
It, specifically kids cancer. It looks like from the video.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
Yeah, there was this little nine year old girl, cute,
little black girl with a big yellow bow on her head,
pretty white dress, beads around her neck, and she came
and she met President Trump, and that is when everybody
in the room was reminded that sometimes there are things
that are more important than politics.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
Anybody, would you let to see something of it?
Speaker 5 (12:15):
Yes, I'm letting my eyes at nine years old and
I was I had a blood of cancer called leukemia
when I was volunteer years old. I had to get
treated at seven different hospitals across this country. And I
had to have two bandmom transplants from one for my
dad and one for my mom. And I had to
(12:37):
spend many days in the nights in the hospital getting
punkies and yuki medicine, and me and my parents are
very worried, and I had to go through those seven
different hospitals to find the best treatment that can make
me better. And they ca Miss referred as President for
making everything happen today. So kids like me and Glad
(13:00):
and Starblo one today into.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
Wow, all that without a teleprompter. I wish Joe Biden
could have done that.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
No, he couldn't know that. No, boy, the part where
she says lots of medicine and pokey, I know, I
know that got me right in the fields. Sweet little girl,
whose kid?
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Is it?
Speaker 4 (13:18):
Just some average American with a kid who had kids her?
That's I'm looking around the room and I see nobody
looked like you can't see the whole room. It's a
camera shot of the President.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
With several other people in the in the video, but
none of them looked like hers. Your race bading, this
has nothing is a Jasmine Crockett's kid. I think that's
Jasmine's daughter. Oh, mister kettotopy ridiculous. She's way too articulate
to be Jasmine Crockett's kid. Well, actually that's what Jasmine
Crockett used to talk like before she started getting all
the attention in the press.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
That does explain a lot.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
No, it was not missus Crockett's child or even younger sister.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yesterday, the Press secretary read a letter from Trump to
the Pharmaceutical Sea and I just want to remind everybody
this is what I voted for.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
As you all know the President signed in executive order
earlier this year to solve the problem of exorbitant pharmaceutical pricing.
According to recent data, the prices that Americans have been
paying for brand name drugs are more than three times
the price others similarly developed nations pay. The President is
determined to solve this problem and took further action today.
(14:25):
He has signed seventeen letters to pharmaceutical companies CEOs, and
I would like to read you one of these letters
to the CEO of Eli Lilly. All of these letters
will be provided to you following this briefing. This is
to the CEO of Eli Lilly from the President of
the United States. On May twelfth to twenty twenty five,
I signed an executive order delivering most favored nation prescription
(14:47):
drug pricing to American patients, to stop global fleet free
loading and guarantee that Americans pay the same prices enjoyed
by other developed nations. Right now, brand name drugs in
the United States up to three times higher on average
than anywhere else for the identical medicines. This unacceptable burden
on hard working American families ends with my administration.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
I mean, yeah, it's a nice start. Isn't it crazy?
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I mean, it's just so infuriating to know, especially if you,
you know, go to the drug store every now and then,
have some prescriptions filled and refilled. It you're paying three
times as much as other not third world country, it's
not the poorest of the other developed nations across the globe.
And our pharmaceutical companies just said, well, you know, the
(15:36):
government is probably paying for a lot of this, and
there's no in I mean, that's an infinite amount of
money coming from the government, So let's just charge everybody
more in America.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
Incredible too, How this is everything the Democrats complain about
all the time, and yet they did nothing about it.
Oh no, it's they say Donald Trump is too radical,
and yet a lot of the things he's doing are
things that they've been demanding for decades.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Will both sides have been saying this is that when
they moved to capital of Israel or whatever.
Speaker 4 (16:02):
I don't know how that worked out, but the embassy
Trump Trump did it.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
Everybody else talked about it for thirty forty years and
they never did same with this pharmaceutical nonsense. Democrats and
Republicans both been saying out loud during election time, of course,
that they're gonna handle this, and ain't nobody handled it
till Trump come along. But what I'm noticing is the
pandemic from twenty twenty. It's still with us, if we
(16:27):
still be involved in them. I'll tell you how I
figured that in a minute. I can't wait to find out.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
So if you're not at work today or you're working
from home, you may be wondering what day is it.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
