Gee. I 27 00:00:58,710 --> 00:01:00,090 I wonder why that is. 28 00:01:01,750 --> 00:01:04,569 Yeah. It's, it's almost like elections have consequences 29 00:01:05,030 --> 00:01:07,430 and, even further when you're in the super 30 00:01:07,430 --> 00:01:07,930 minority. 31 00:01:08,790 --> 00:01:09,989 Yeah. Yeah. That is, 32 00:01:10,549 --> 00:01:13,165 it's it's painful to think that that people 33 00:01:13,165 --> 00:01:15,105 really don't do any research whatsoever 34 00:01:15,484 --> 00:01:16,625 and continue to vote, 35 00:01:17,325 --> 00:01:18,465 especially Democrats, 36 00:01:19,005 --> 00:01:21,105 continue to vote just for Democrats 37 00:01:21,484 --> 00:01:23,885 who have done really bad things for our 38 00:01:23,885 --> 00:01:27,159 state, including pushing people out of our state 39 00:01:27,299 --> 00:01:30,500 who otherwise might stay and actually wanna open 40 00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:32,439 up businesses and things like that. 41 00:01:33,780 --> 00:01:36,280 Well, yeah, I mean, aside from the individual 42 00:01:36,420 --> 00:01:38,259 New Jerseyans that have made that decision, I 43 00:01:38,259 --> 00:01:40,659 mean, obviously, U Haul tracks that data as 44 00:01:40,659 --> 00:01:43,125 best as anyone, I guess, from those that 45 00:01:43,125 --> 00:01:44,584 rent one way U Hauls 46 00:01:44,965 --> 00:01:45,944 as well as, 47 00:01:46,325 --> 00:01:48,244 you know, the businesses that make decisions that 48 00:01:48,244 --> 00:01:50,164 they're no longer gonna stay here like Exxon 49 00:01:50,164 --> 00:01:51,465 did in the last week. 50 00:01:52,405 --> 00:01:52,905 Amazing. 51 00:01:53,444 --> 00:01:55,704 Tell tell the listeners what happened. 52 00:01:56,510 --> 00:01:59,090 So after a hundred and forty four years, 53 00:01:59,230 --> 00:02:01,170 Exxon has made the decision to, 54 00:02:01,870 --> 00:02:02,370 basically 55 00:02:02,990 --> 00:02:04,209 relocate their incorporation, 56 00:02:05,150 --> 00:02:05,810 to Texas 57 00:02:06,590 --> 00:02:09,914 and severing their relationship with the Garden State 58 00:02:10,235 --> 00:02:12,474 after, I mean, that long. That's that's an 59 00:02:12,474 --> 00:02:14,715 exorbitant amount, but it's for one reason and 60 00:02:14,715 --> 00:02:16,634 one reason only. New Jersey is not a 61 00:02:16,634 --> 00:02:19,294 business friendly state. It's not a cost effective 62 00:02:19,354 --> 00:02:21,995 state, and it's not an affordable state. And 63 00:02:21,995 --> 00:02:23,375 that is due to the Democrats 64 00:02:23,834 --> 00:02:25,134 having complete control 65 00:02:25,860 --> 00:02:26,360 for, 66 00:02:26,819 --> 00:02:27,959 a quarter of a century, 67 00:02:28,819 --> 00:02:31,459 with the exception of, you know, governor Christie 68 00:02:31,459 --> 00:02:32,979 being in there for eight years that only 69 00:02:32,979 --> 00:02:34,979 put the pause button on most of this 70 00:02:34,979 --> 00:02:37,620 stuff or at least, put the brakes on 71 00:02:37,620 --> 00:02:38,979 some of it. But for the most part, 72 00:02:38,979 --> 00:02:41,754 Democrats have had complete control, and they own 73 00:02:41,754 --> 00:02:44,974 this. It's not affordable because the Democrats' policies, 74 00:02:45,514 --> 00:02:48,414 perspectives, and principles, and even more so because 75 00:02:48,555 --> 00:02:50,875 there are too many illegal immigrants in the 76 00:02:50,875 --> 00:02:53,099 state of New Jersey that need to go. 77 00:02:53,180 --> 00:02:54,719 How do we get rid of the sanctuary 78 00:02:54,860 --> 00:02:56,879 state, sanctuary city garbage? 79 00:02:57,340 --> 00:02:59,099 Is there is there a way as long 80 00:02:59,099 --> 00:03:00,639 as Democrats are in charge? 81 00:03:01,659 --> 00:03:03,260 It doesn't appear so. I mean, you can 82 00:03:03,260 --> 00:03:05,360 bring attention to it. You can, 83 00:03:06,219 --> 00:03:09,040 do rallies and do everything you possibly can. 84 00:03:09,155 --> 00:03:12,134 But until there's actually a change in control 85 00:03:12,354 --> 00:03:13,955 in one of the chambers as well as 86 00:03:13,955 --> 00:03:15,014 the Governor's Mansion, 87 00:03:15,715 --> 00:03:18,754 that's gonna continue. Lawsuits, you can go multiple 88 00:03:18,754 --> 00:03:19,254 avenues, 89 00:03:19,955 --> 00:03:20,914 which will take, 90 00:03:21,314 --> 00:03:23,750 take some time. But this is this is 91 00:03:23,750 --> 00:03:24,889 what happens when 92 00:03:25,509 --> 00:03:27,370 elections occur. And this is what happens 93 00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:28,250 when, 94 00:03:29,430 --> 00:03:31,989 you know, you go to the process of 95 00:03:31,989 --> 00:03:34,009 nominating individuals instead of having 96 00:03:34,870 --> 00:03:36,090 a full blown competition 97 00:03:36,389 --> 00:03:38,694 to hear ideas, let people be heard. Sometimes 98 00:03:38,694 --> 00:03:41,435 their ideas are crap. Sometimes they're very good. 99 00:03:41,735 --> 00:03:44,455 And, ultimately having a way to do this. 100 00:03:44,455 --> 00:03:45,114 But, again, 101 00:03:45,414 --> 00:03:47,895 in Jersey's problem is a math problem. There 102 00:03:47,895 --> 00:03:49,594 just happens to be more Democrats 103 00:03:50,134 --> 00:03:53,675 and independent leaning Democrats that favor these policies 104 00:03:53,814 --> 00:03:54,270 that 105 00:03:56,110 --> 00:03:59,150 inadvertently, and directly hurt them. And, you know, 106 00:03:59,150 --> 00:04:01,090 they don't know. They're too stupid to know. 107 00:04:01,629 --> 00:04:03,230 And that's why. I mean, when you have 108 00:04:03,230 --> 00:04:04,909 an 800 to 900,000 109 00:04:04,909 --> 00:04:06,449 voter registration advantage, 110 00:04:08,504 --> 00:04:10,985 that's that's a math problem. And trying to 111 00:04:10,985 --> 00:04:13,165 adopt Democrat policies and principles 112 00:04:13,784 --> 00:04:16,024 as a Republican doesn't get anywhere. I mean, 113 00:04:16,024 --> 00:04:18,985 there's no point. You have to have a 114 00:04:18,985 --> 00:04:20,285 diametric difference 115 00:04:20,899 --> 00:04:21,720 and a comparison. 116 00:04:22,100 --> 00:04:24,100 You know? You can't be the light version 117 00:04:24,100 --> 00:04:26,439 of the Democrats and think it's gonna work, 118 00:04:26,500 --> 00:04:28,339 then you're not actually standing up for those 119 00:04:28,339 --> 00:04:30,580 principles and values. And it's very unfortunate, and 120 00:04:30,580 --> 00:04:32,439 this is, again, why elections have consequences. 121 00:04:32,995 --> 00:04:33,495 Yeah. 122 00:04:34,035 --> 00:04:35,634 One of the things that I thought was 123 00:04:35,634 --> 00:04:36,694 important was, 124 00:04:37,074 --> 00:04:38,214 the right to carry. 125 00:04:38,995 --> 00:04:41,175 What is New Jersey's stance 126 00:04:41,875 --> 00:04:42,354 on, 127 00:04:42,834 --> 00:04:43,814 allowing people 128 00:04:44,194 --> 00:04:45,735 who have had 129 00:04:47,074 --> 00:04:47,574 in-depth 130 00:04:49,110 --> 00:04:53,110 lessons in weaponry and being able to shoot 131 00:04:53,110 --> 00:04:55,670 their weapon and having the ability to purchase 132 00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:57,529 a weapon because they don't have, 133 00:04:58,870 --> 00:05:00,490 a record of any illegalities. 134 00:05:01,714 --> 00:05:03,795 Yeah. What's happening with that? Because we live 135 00:05:03,795 --> 00:05:07,154 in a sanctuary city, sanctuary state, anything goes. 136 00:05:07,154 --> 00:05:09,794 Illegals are allowed to roam the street. We 137 00:05:09,794 --> 00:05:12,194 see how the crime rate, at least not 138 00:05:12,194 --> 00:05:15,574 here in Atlantic City or in, Atlanta County 139 00:05:15,634 --> 00:05:18,629 so much, but around our state, particularly in 140 00:05:18,629 --> 00:05:19,370 blue cities, 141 00:05:19,670 --> 00:05:21,850 the crime rate continues to go up. 142 00:05:22,230 --> 00:05:24,889 Is there anything going on that will allow 143 00:05:24,949 --> 00:05:27,769 people who know how to handle a weapon, 144 00:05:28,149 --> 00:05:30,995 give them the ability to go and and 145 00:05:31,055 --> 00:05:32,975 get whatever they need to in order to 146 00:05:32,975 --> 00:05:33,475 carry 147 00:05:33,855 --> 00:05:34,995 a weapon and perhaps 148 00:05:35,615 --> 00:05:36,115 protect 149 00:05:36,654 --> 00:05:38,975 the citizens of New Jersey who may come 150 00:05:38,975 --> 00:05:40,995 across someone who is a violent criminal? 151 00:05:42,415 --> 00:05:44,735 Yeah. So there's there's multifaceted to this. So, 152 00:05:44,735 --> 00:05:47,060 obviously, the second amendment baked into our, 153 00:05:47,459 --> 00:05:49,879 constitution in The United States, and a decision 154 00:05:50,259 --> 00:05:51,860 that was led by the Supreme Court had 155 00:05:51,860 --> 00:05:54,259 led this to prevent any of these states 156 00:05:54,259 --> 00:05:56,180 like New Jersey that tried to prevent concealed 157 00:05:56,180 --> 00:05:56,680 carry. 158 00:05:57,379 --> 00:05:57,879 Hence, 159 00:05:58,180 --> 00:06:00,279 there was concealed carry reciprocity 160 00:06:00,845 --> 00:06:02,365 in some states, but not in others. New 161 00:06:02,365 --> 00:06:05,004 Jersey didn't recognize any other states, etcetera. And 162 00:06:05,004 --> 00:06:07,264 you can get a concealed carry license, 163 00:06:08,045 --> 00:06:09,185 once you go through 164 00:06:09,884 --> 00:06:11,504 and pay for, in most cases, 165 00:06:12,444 --> 00:06:13,425 training and certification, 166 00:06:14,045 --> 00:06:16,860 fees, filing, all that kind of stuff. And 167 00:06:16,860 --> 00:06:19,120 the Democrats have tried to make this as, 168 00:06:19,899 --> 00:06:22,540 costly and expensive as possible, which is ironic 169 00:06:22,540 --> 00:06:25,259 given their stance when it comes to having 170 00:06:25,259 --> 00:06:27,740 voter ID and the fact that $30 to 171 00:06:27,740 --> 00:06:29,899 get a driver's license or a non government 172 00:06:29,899 --> 00:06:32,754 ID or nine driver's license ID or any 173 00:06:32,754 --> 00:06:34,754 other thing with a passport is a poll 174 00:06:34,754 --> 00:06:35,254 tax, 175 00:06:36,355 --> 00:06:37,415 when it comes to, 176 00:06:37,795 --> 00:06:39,875 getting concealed license. And even more so, you 177 00:06:39,875 --> 00:06:41,154 have to show you have to get a 178 00:06:41,154 --> 00:06:42,214 firearms ID, 179 00:06:43,154 --> 00:06:45,074 to be able to buy ammunition in the 180 00:06:45,074 --> 00:06:47,970 state of New Jersey, not notwithstanding buying actual 181 00:06:48,050 --> 00:06:50,149 firearms where you can just go to Delaware, 182 00:06:50,769 --> 00:06:51,750 pop in a Cabela's, 183 00:06:52,290 --> 00:06:54,370 and walk in there without even showing an 184 00:06:54,370 --> 00:06:55,670 idea to buy ammunition 185 00:06:56,449 --> 00:06:59,089 and and other things because Delaware doesn't have 186 00:06:59,089 --> 00:06:59,985 that kind of 187 00:07:01,425 --> 00:07:03,264 scrutiny with regard to that. But it's all 188 00:07:03,504 --> 00:07:05,504 and these two year concealed these concealed carry 189 00:07:05,504 --> 00:07:07,425 license are for two years.

It's 209 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,039 unfortunate, and this has become a thing where 210 00:07:50,039 --> 00:07:51,959 you wanna be able to defend yourself and 211 00:07:51,959 --> 00:07:53,259 those around you, 212 00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:56,539 using deadly force if necessary. 213 00:07:57,319 --> 00:07:58,300 So, again, 214 00:07:58,785 --> 00:08:00,245 it's a very scary 215 00:08:00,705 --> 00:08:03,585 situation. You never wanna have to use a 216 00:08:03,585 --> 00:08:06,004 firearm to defend or protect yourself, 217 00:08:06,384 --> 00:08:08,225 but you don't wanna be in a situation 218 00:08:08,225 --> 00:08:09,125 where, yep, 219 00:08:09,585 --> 00:08:11,345 this could have been avoided, and this is 220 00:08:11,345 --> 00:08:14,160 the end, and you're you're completely powerless. And 221 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,379 not to tie this into, 222 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,139 you know, international situations, but this is precisely 223 00:08:19,279 --> 00:08:20,100 why Iran 224 00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:22,960 and the people within Iran cannot rise up 225 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,439 because they don't have a second amendment. Most 226 00:08:25,439 --> 00:08:25,939 countries, 227 00:08:26,555 --> 00:08:28,074 almost all of them do not have a 228 00:08:28,074 --> 00:08:31,115 second amendment where the citizens are armed and 229 00:08:31,115 --> 00:08:32,095 can deal with 230 00:08:32,475 --> 00:08:33,615 a tyrannical 231 00:08:33,995 --> 00:08:34,495 government. 232 00:08:34,875 --> 00:08:37,514 Hence, when we broke away as 13 colonies 233 00:08:37,514 --> 00:08:38,735 from the British Empire, 234 00:08:39,355 --> 00:08:40,575 this was paramount 235 00:08:41,009 --> 00:08:42,690 so that this would never happen again. We 236 00:08:42,690 --> 00:08:45,029 were we were breaking away from the crown, 237 00:08:45,490 --> 00:08:46,230 an entire 238 00:08:46,610 --> 00:08:49,190 of a government. We wanted to make sure 239 00:08:49,410 --> 00:08:50,470 that the individuals 240 00:08:51,009 --> 00:08:52,470 as well as citizens 241 00:08:53,105 --> 00:08:56,225 could defend themselves with firearms. Iran does not 242 00:08:56,225 --> 00:08:58,004 have that. It's why you saw, unfortunately, 243 00:08:58,384 --> 00:08:59,605 before all this happened, 244 00:09:00,065 --> 00:09:01,924 with the recent, war campaign 245 00:09:02,304 --> 00:09:03,365 where the Ayatollah 246 00:09:03,824 --> 00:09:04,324 killed 247 00:09:04,704 --> 00:09:06,964 thousands, if not tens of thousands of protesters 248 00:09:07,105 --> 00:09:07,845 in the street 249 00:09:08,459 --> 00:09:10,779 because they weren't even armed. They couldn't even 250 00:09:10,779 --> 00:09:13,259 fight back. There couldn't be an uprising, and 251 00:09:13,259 --> 00:09:15,120 that's why the second amendment's so important. 252 00:09:15,579 --> 00:09:18,459 Notwithstanding in New Jersey and New Jersey Democrats 253 00:09:18,459 --> 00:09:19,899 trying to do everything they can to make 254 00:09:19,899 --> 00:09:21,039 it as impossible, 255 00:09:22,034 --> 00:09:24,674 to carry a firearm. I I agree. I 256 00:09:24,674 --> 00:09:27,414 don't you know, I think that every single 257 00:09:27,475 --> 00:09:29,654 school should be required to have someone 258 00:09:30,115 --> 00:09:32,514 who is allowed to carry, who has been 259 00:09:32,514 --> 00:09:33,654 trained thoroughly 260 00:09:34,195 --> 00:09:35,309 in how to protect, 261 00:09:35,789 --> 00:09:37,169 the buildings or 262 00:09:37,549 --> 00:09:40,929 building that, he or she is assigned to, 263 00:09:41,549 --> 00:09:44,029 because we've seen far too many. I mean, 264 00:09:44,029 --> 00:09:45,149 all all I have to do is go 265 00:09:45,149 --> 00:09:47,230 back to Sandy Hook and my eyes fill 266 00:09:47,230 --> 00:09:47,730 up. 267 00:09:48,429 --> 00:09:48,929 It's 268 00:09:49,574 --> 00:09:51,414 had there been anyone there at the front 269 00:09:51,414 --> 00:09:52,794 desk who had in fact, 270 00:09:53,814 --> 00:09:55,495 known how to handle a gun, had a 271 00:09:55,495 --> 00:09:55,995 gun, 272 00:09:56,615 --> 00:09:58,534 but they lived in a state where it 273 00:09:58,534 --> 00:10:01,334 was anti gun, anti carry, all the other 274 00:10:01,334 --> 00:10:01,834 things 275 00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:05,480 that diminished their ability in the school systems 276 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,539 to protect the students that were sitting there, 277 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,879 you know, enjoying the day and to have 278 00:10:11,879 --> 00:10:14,120 some monster come in with a gun and 279 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,820 be able to kill them willy nilly 280 00:10:16,279 --> 00:10:17,705 as this person 281 00:10:18,245 --> 00:10:21,205 did. Had there been someone there and and 282 00:10:21,205 --> 00:10:23,285 quite frankly, I think it should be a 283 00:10:23,285 --> 00:10:26,805 legal matter. I think every single school district 284 00:10:26,805 --> 00:10:28,024 should have an expert 285 00:10:28,565 --> 00:10:29,045 in, 286 00:10:30,085 --> 00:10:31,144 dealing with guns, 287 00:10:31,789 --> 00:10:34,429 sitting in the front and making sure that 288 00:10:34,429 --> 00:10:36,529 no one attempts to get into a school, 289 00:10:36,589 --> 00:10:39,309 and that should anyone show signs of, 290 00:10:40,589 --> 00:10:44,589 wanting to commit violent acts, that they would 291 00:10:44,589 --> 00:10:45,889 be there to stop them. 292 00:10:47,245 --> 00:10:49,804 No. Absolutely. I mean, we shouldn't be spending 293 00:10:49,804 --> 00:10:52,205 taxpayer dollars to get English as a second 294 00:10:52,205 --> 00:10:55,804 language teachers to support illegal immigrant children in 295 00:10:55,804 --> 00:10:57,825 our schools. That money should be used, 296 00:10:58,205 --> 00:11:01,325 for hardening our schools and protection with someone 297 00:11:01,325 --> 00:11:02,625 who's trained to use firearm. 298 00:11:03,589 --> 00:11:06,070 And, unfortunately, again, this is where priorities differ 299 00:11:06,070 --> 00:11:07,529 in terms of the political parties, 300 00:11:07,990 --> 00:11:09,990 and it's just it it breaks your heart 301 00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:11,750 when you see these stories. It breaks your 302 00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:14,169 heart when you see the catastrophic ones like, 303 00:11:14,629 --> 00:11:16,629 like Sandy Hook, like you mentioned, and others 304 00:11:16,629 --> 00:11:18,355 that have that have happened over the years. 305 00:11:18,355 --> 00:11:19,955 It just like you said, it wells up 306 00:11:19,955 --> 00:11:21,955 the eyes, and it could have been avoided. 307 00:11:21,955 --> 00:11:23,575 But there is just a fundamental 308 00:11:24,274 --> 00:11:25,735 difference. And, again, 309 00:11:26,274 --> 00:11:29,475 there are evil people out there, and there 310 00:11:29,475 --> 00:11:31,254 is no understanding 311 00:11:31,634 --> 00:11:33,690 them. And it's not like most of these 312 00:11:33,690 --> 00:11:34,190 instances, 313 00:11:34,889 --> 00:11:37,049 again, from a mental health standpoint or or 314 00:11:37,049 --> 00:11:38,669 however you wanna put it, breakdown 315 00:11:39,129 --> 00:11:41,309 the American family, the nuclear family, 316 00:11:41,850 --> 00:11:44,490 from broken homes, broken families, you name it. 317 00:11:44,490 --> 00:11:47,644 It's it's all we've seen it before. Like, 318 00:11:47,644 --> 00:11:49,024 it's it's very unfortunate, 319 00:11:49,485 --> 00:11:50,945 and this all ties together. 320 00:11:51,644 --> 00:11:51,965 And, 321 00:11:52,485 --> 00:11:55,424 you know, New Jersey is is just continuing 322 00:11:55,884 --> 00:11:58,384 this trek to this failed blue state status 323 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,159 that is not safe, that is not law 324 00:12:01,159 --> 00:12:01,659 abiding, 325 00:12:02,519 --> 00:12:04,440 that makes it very, very difficult to stay 326 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,139 here, and a lot of people are making 327 00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:09,960 a very specific decision to leave based on 328 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,914 a number of those things. Seriously. 329 00:12:12,375 --> 00:12:14,154 Businesses are going to 330 00:12:14,455 --> 00:12:15,834 business friendly states. 331 00:12:16,695 --> 00:12:18,934 They are leaving. And when they leave, the 332 00:12:18,934 --> 00:12:21,274 people who have worked for them for years 333 00:12:22,054 --> 00:12:24,855 also have to leave, which means that our 334 00:12:24,855 --> 00:12:27,240 state is going to be getting less and 335 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:28,940 less in tax dollars 336 00:12:29,399 --> 00:12:31,639 because businesses have left and the people who 337 00:12:31,639 --> 00:12:33,660 work for them have left as well. 338 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,360 Is there anything that you think can be 339 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,139 done? I mean, I I know that assemblyman 340 00:12:38,325 --> 00:12:40,085 Bergen was going to be on with you, 341 00:12:40,085 --> 00:12:41,965 and we will have him on somewhere down 342 00:12:41,965 --> 00:12:42,585 the line. 343 00:12:43,125 --> 00:12:46,085 But is there anything that any Republican can 344 00:12:46,085 --> 00:12:48,024 do here in New Jersey 345 00:12:48,804 --> 00:12:50,345 that would force an issue 346 00:12:51,299 --> 00:12:54,019 before the state, before the citizens that would 347 00:12:54,019 --> 00:12:56,980 actually push them to do what was best 348 00:12:56,980 --> 00:12:57,799 for the taxpayer? 349 00:13:00,259 --> 00:13:00,759 Right. 350 00:13:01,379 --> 00:13:04,259 Again, it's continuing to introduce bills. I mean, 351 00:13:04,259 --> 00:13:06,245 they likely will not get out of committee, 352 00:13:06,245 --> 00:13:07,684 much less on the floor to be voted 353 00:13:07,684 --> 00:13:09,625 on. So you can see where the representatives 354 00:13:10,245 --> 00:13:11,464 stand on these things, 355 00:13:11,924 --> 00:13:14,245 especially with Republicans and the super minority, but 356 00:13:14,245 --> 00:13:16,504 it's it's talking about it. It's bringing attention 357 00:13:16,804 --> 00:13:18,184 to all kinds of ridiculousness 358 00:13:18,644 --> 00:13:20,490 and the spending. I mean, it's just 359 00:13:20,970 --> 00:13:21,470 unbelievably 360 00:13:22,009 --> 00:13:22,509 absurd, 361 00:13:23,209 --> 00:13:24,730 but this is where we are. This is 362 00:13:24,730 --> 00:13:26,570 what happens when there's twenty five years of 363 00:13:26,570 --> 00:13:27,629 one party rule, 364 00:13:28,570 --> 00:13:29,950 and this this, 365 00:13:30,649 --> 00:13:33,850 ludicrous nonsense of trying to compromise so you 366 00:13:33,850 --> 00:13:36,024 can get scraps and crumbs. Guess what? At 367 00:13:36,024 --> 00:13:37,144 the end of the day, you still have 368 00:13:37,144 --> 00:13:39,945 scraps and crumbs, and you sacrificed your principles 369 00:13:39,945 --> 00:13:42,845 and your values to get them. So, ultimately, 370 00:13:43,065 --> 00:13:46,605 it's again, you have, stark leaders like Kenitra, 371 00:13:46,745 --> 00:13:49,720 like Bergen, and others in the assembly that 372 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,100 continue to bring attention 373 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,120 to not only conservative principles, but cons common 374 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,799 sense when it comes to to spending or 375 00:13:57,799 --> 00:14:01,014 policy or any of this stuff. It's it's 376 00:14:01,095 --> 00:14:02,774 you have to bring attention to it. You 377 00:14:02,774 --> 00:14:04,855 have to rally, and you have to build 378 00:14:04,855 --> 00:14:07,014 a case, and this does not happen overnight, 379 00:14:07,014 --> 00:14:08,955 especially when there's people who are resistant. 380 00:14:09,495 --> 00:14:12,855 And even further, when you're outnumbered, again, it's 381 00:14:12,855 --> 00:14:14,774 a sad fact, but it is a fact. 382 00:14:14,774 --> 00:14:16,589 It is a math problem in in the 383 00:14:16,589 --> 00:14:18,750 state of New Jersey, and it's gonna continue 384 00:14:18,750 --> 00:14:21,149 to be a math problem because the people 385 00:14:21,149 --> 00:14:24,370 that would probably help our cause are making 386 00:14:24,429 --> 00:14:26,589 their individual decision, and no one can blame 387 00:14:26,589 --> 00:14:29,230 them to leave the Garden State. And guess 388 00:14:29,230 --> 00:14:30,850 what? They were replenished by people 389 00:14:31,534 --> 00:14:33,774 in crazy places like New York City that 390 00:14:33,774 --> 00:14:36,434 are looking at New Jersey relatively speaking. Like, 391 00:14:36,574 --> 00:14:37,214 this is not 392 00:14:38,894 --> 00:14:42,014 Brian, I I have been looking at what 393 00:14:42,014 --> 00:14:44,434 our the new governor is doing, 394 00:14:45,054 --> 00:14:46,274 what she has done, 395 00:14:47,550 --> 00:14:48,930 that takes away 396 00:14:49,309 --> 00:14:49,809 our, 397 00:14:50,350 --> 00:14:52,210 ability to protect ourselves 398 00:14:52,750 --> 00:14:55,809 because we are sanctuary a sanctuary state. 399 00:14:56,190 --> 00:14:56,690 Also, 400 00:14:57,070 --> 00:15:00,350 because sanctuary states are here because she wants 401 00:15:00,350 --> 00:15:02,210 to protect illegal immigrants. 402 00:15:02,884 --> 00:15:04,485 Is there any way that we will ever 403 00:15:04,485 --> 00:15:06,245 be able to get beyond that? And will 404 00:15:06,245 --> 00:15:08,184 governors begin to pay attention 405 00:15:08,804 --> 00:15:10,985 to what they should or shouldn't do 406 00:15:11,365 --> 00:15:14,024 to make sure that their citizens are safe 407 00:15:14,085 --> 00:15:16,024 or not?

So, again, this is this is where 415 00:15:31,714 --> 00:15:33,735 my stance, again, is 416 00:15:34,355 --> 00:15:37,154 is very specific. Right? Any and all legal 417 00:15:37,154 --> 00:15:40,034 aliens that are here are criminals regardless of 418 00:15:40,034 --> 00:15:41,894 how long they've been here, regardless 419 00:15:42,195 --> 00:15:44,410 of how long their rap sheet is, which 420 00:15:44,410 --> 00:15:46,149 it shouldn't even have been there, 421 00:15:46,610 --> 00:15:47,110 and, 422 00:15:48,929 --> 00:15:51,169 you name it. It's their first their first 423 00:15:51,169 --> 00:15:53,750 act on American soil was a criminal one, 424 00:15:53,809 --> 00:15:56,690 and that is deport deportation for all of 425 00:15:56,690 --> 00:15:59,154 them. However, it's very difficult to do this 426 00:15:59,154 --> 00:16:00,855 when you have a state like New Jersey 427 00:16:01,075 --> 00:16:03,714 that is resistant to working with the federal 428 00:16:03,714 --> 00:16:04,214 government, 429 00:16:04,995 --> 00:16:05,495 with, 430 00:16:06,274 --> 00:16:06,774 basically, 431 00:16:07,154 --> 00:16:09,495 the Department of Homeland Security and ICE, etcetera. 432 00:16:10,195 --> 00:16:10,855 So then 433 00:16:11,350 --> 00:16:14,009 the irony is if they had actually 434 00:16:15,110 --> 00:16:17,929 worked hand in hand with these federal agencies, 435 00:16:18,950 --> 00:16:21,429 you wouldn't have a situation where which we've 436 00:16:21,429 --> 00:16:23,429 seen in Minnesota and other states where they 437 00:16:23,429 --> 00:16:25,590 go in and they cast a wide web 438 00:16:25,590 --> 00:16:26,889 because they're going after 439 00:16:27,404 --> 00:16:29,404 the criminals first because that's easy because they're 440 00:16:29,404 --> 00:16:30,144 in a database, 441 00:16:31,084 --> 00:16:33,324 to go after first. And then by doing 442 00:16:33,324 --> 00:16:35,824 a wide net, they're they're also capturing 443 00:16:36,204 --> 00:16:38,365 those that may be associates that are also 444 00:16:38,365 --> 00:16:39,179 illegal aliens, 445 00:16:40,059 --> 00:16:42,139 which is again, that kinda makes me laugh 446 00:16:42,139 --> 00:16:44,700 because if they didn't have these policies in 447 00:16:44,700 --> 00:16:47,279 place and they actually coordinated that once they 448 00:16:47,580 --> 00:16:48,720 were held in jail, 449 00:16:49,820 --> 00:16:51,899 that they would be handed off instead of 450 00:16:51,899 --> 00:16:54,254 releasing them into the community that that endangers 451 00:16:54,254 --> 00:16:55,715 you, me, and everybody listening, 452 00:16:56,575 --> 00:16:58,514 for ICE to go in and actually surgically 453 00:16:58,575 --> 00:16:59,634 find these in the community. 454 00:17:00,254 --> 00:17:02,894 So, again, it's very difficult with the state 455 00:17:02,894 --> 00:17:03,715 of New Jersey, 456 00:17:04,174 --> 00:17:06,335 and all you can really do is bring 457 00:17:06,335 --> 00:17:08,015 attention to this and bring it up and 458 00:17:08,015 --> 00:17:09,394 actually have a platform. 459 00:17:09,910 --> 00:17:12,390 You know, the Republican Party statewide and even 460 00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:14,069 the counties, you have no idea what they 461 00:17:14,069 --> 00:17:16,549 stand for.

That's going to be also 829 00:30:23,785 --> 00:30:25,980 very interesting to see how that pans out, 830 00:30:26,779 --> 00:30:27,660 with with, 831 00:30:27,980 --> 00:30:29,679 subject to the constitution, etcetera. 832 00:30:30,140 --> 00:30:33,259 But, again, we have every right, and everything 833 00:30:33,259 --> 00:30:34,319 that has happened 834 00:30:34,700 --> 00:30:36,700 is it makes me laugh because, again, there's 835 00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:38,565 always this argument from the left that we're 836 00:30:38,724 --> 00:30:40,404 The United States is a nation of immigrants. 837 00:30:40,404 --> 00:30:42,264 No. We're not, and we never have been. 838 00:30:42,325 --> 00:30:43,865 This nation was a 839 00:30:44,244 --> 00:30:47,764 British and Dutch settlers who then decided over 840 00:30:47,764 --> 00:30:49,845 time to allow more people to come into 841 00:30:49,845 --> 00:30:52,264 the country.

It's gotta 1009 00:36:58,119 --> 00:36:59,260 get worse for people. 1010 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,099 Yeah. Isn't it amazing? 1011 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:02,860 I did it myself, 1012 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,239 because they they had made mention that it 1013 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,400 was all the women who were in, you 1014 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,400 know, Central North Jersey that just 1015 00:37:10,164 --> 00:37:13,224 you know, they embraced this woman, this helicopter 1016 00:37:13,364 --> 00:37:14,984 pilot, this cheater. 1017 00:37:15,924 --> 00:37:17,065 They embraced her, 1018 00:37:17,364 --> 00:37:20,724 and they brought her to a position of 1019 00:37:20,724 --> 00:37:21,784 huge power, 1020 00:37:22,644 --> 00:37:23,464 in our country. 1021 00:37:24,179 --> 00:37:25,880 And I'm thinking to myself, what's 1022 00:37:27,780 --> 00:37:30,179 what's the end line for this? Why would 1023 00:37:30,179 --> 00:37:31,559 they want someone 1024 00:37:31,940 --> 00:37:33,480 whose lack of integrity 1025 00:37:34,260 --> 00:37:35,000 was shown, 1026 00:37:35,780 --> 00:37:36,280 who 1027 00:37:36,974 --> 00:37:39,215 may have been in the military, but even 1028 00:37:39,215 --> 00:37:42,115 there, we we have questions about her military 1029 00:37:42,255 --> 00:37:42,755 service. 1030 00:37:43,375 --> 00:37:44,115 And yet, 1031 00:37:44,494 --> 00:37:46,675 because she was a woman and a liberal 1032 00:37:46,735 --> 00:37:47,235 progressive, 1033 00:37:48,255 --> 00:37:51,394 are liberal progressive women that dimwitted 1034 00:37:52,219 --> 00:37:54,960 that they don't look at the issues of 1035 00:37:55,099 --> 00:37:55,599 taxes, 1036 00:37:56,139 --> 00:37:56,799 of education, 1037 00:37:57,900 --> 00:37:58,380 of, 1038 00:37:58,779 --> 00:38:01,099 medical care, of all of the things that 1039 00:38:01,099 --> 00:38:03,980 are included in becoming the best leader of 1040 00:38:03,980 --> 00:38:06,799 a state? Didn't they bother to look? 1041 00:38:08,344 --> 00:38:10,525 Well, it wasn't even just that. I mean, 1042 00:38:11,704 --> 00:38:13,804 it was hijacking affordability 1043 00:38:14,105 --> 00:38:16,844 as a campaign issue, which is ludicrous 1044 00:38:17,385 --> 00:38:19,464 to think about that Democrats would say that 1045 00:38:19,464 --> 00:38:21,164 they're gonna be in the party of affordability. 1046 00:38:21,940 --> 00:38:23,239 And even more so, 1047 00:38:23,699 --> 00:38:25,539 it's it's like I said before, it's a 1048 00:38:25,539 --> 00:38:27,219 it's a math problem. It's your team versus 1049 00:38:27,219 --> 00:38:28,579 my team. She happened to be on the 1050 00:38:28,579 --> 00:38:30,820 team of all these women and all these 1051 00:38:30,820 --> 00:38:31,960 voters that decided 1052 00:38:32,260 --> 00:38:34,980 that that's that's our team. We're gonna stick 1053 00:38:34,980 --> 00:38:36,519 with our team no matter what, 1054 00:38:37,864 --> 00:38:39,644 And that's how we're gonna vote regardless. 1055 00:38:40,184 --> 00:38:41,945 And you know what? You get what you 1056 00:38:41,945 --> 00:38:44,264 vote for good and hard, and a lot 1057 00:38:44,264 --> 00:38:46,025 of these individuals are gonna do. And that's 1058 00:38:46,025 --> 00:38:47,964 why it's so ironic when you have someone 1059 00:38:48,344 --> 00:38:51,164 like senator Cory Booker, who obviously has presidential 1060 00:38:51,429 --> 00:38:54,309 aspirations for 2028, trying to copy Trump and 1061 00:38:54,309 --> 00:38:54,890 the Republicans 1062 00:38:55,590 --> 00:38:57,130 by trying to address, 1063 00:38:58,070 --> 00:38:59,929 his tax plan, which, again, 1064 00:39:01,429 --> 00:39:03,829 Trump talked about this by making it again, 1065 00:39:03,829 --> 00:39:05,635 you can't repeal the sixteenth amendment, but you 1066 00:39:05,635 --> 00:39:07,335 can increase the standard deduction, 1067 00:39:07,714 --> 00:39:10,355 which right now is somewhere in the $30,000 1068 00:39:10,355 --> 00:39:11,574 range for a married couple. 1069 00:39:12,034 --> 00:39:13,875 And you have someone like Booker and Van 1070 00:39:13,875 --> 00:39:15,554 Holland in Maryland who I I guess he 1071 00:39:15,554 --> 00:39:17,795 has presidential aspirations as well to try to 1072 00:39:17,795 --> 00:39:19,654 crank this up to 75,000 1073 00:39:20,019 --> 00:39:21,780 or a $100,000 1074 00:39:21,780 --> 00:39:24,099 standard deduction, which is which is good on 1075 00:39:24,099 --> 00:39:25,619 that front. Great. That's what Trump and the 1076 00:39:25,619 --> 00:39:27,860 Republican have talked about for years. But but 1077 00:39:27,860 --> 00:39:30,180 to quote, unquote quote, pay for it as 1078 00:39:30,180 --> 00:39:32,500 they put it, which ridiculous comment, you can 1079 00:39:32,500 --> 00:39:34,835 never pay for tax cuts because, again, it's 1080 00:39:34,835 --> 00:39:35,815 spending Mhmm. 1081 00:39:36,594 --> 00:39:38,914 That you raise the rate on all the 1082 00:39:38,914 --> 00:39:40,994 high income earners. Well, guess what? Supply side 1083 00:39:40,994 --> 00:39:43,394 economics says, if you tax something more, you're 1084 00:39:43,394 --> 00:39:46,594 gonna get less of it. Meaning, people have 1085 00:39:46,594 --> 00:39:49,255 options. They're gonna make different decisions on 1086 00:39:49,579 --> 00:39:51,500 taking risks and all that kind of stuff. 1087 00:39:51,500 --> 00:39:53,500 So and, again, to raise the corporate tax 1088 00:39:53,500 --> 00:39:55,840 rate, all this other nonsense. So, again, Democrats 1089 00:39:55,900 --> 00:39:58,320 haven't really learned this, but it is interesting 1090 00:39:58,539 --> 00:39:59,440 that they are, 1091 00:40:00,059 --> 00:40:01,440 going back to a JFK 1092 00:40:02,059 --> 00:40:03,280 mindset of 1093 00:40:03,659 --> 00:40:04,159 all, 1094 00:40:04,994 --> 00:40:07,394 basically, the the tide raises all boats by 1095 00:40:07,394 --> 00:40:09,255 cutting taxes across the board. 1096 00:40:09,635 --> 00:40:12,855 And instead of cord poker in particular representing 1097 00:40:12,914 --> 00:40:14,835 the state of New Jersey realizing, you know 1098 00:40:14,835 --> 00:40:16,960 what? Maybe we spend too much money. Maybe 1099 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,960 there's too much fraud. Maybe we need to 1100 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,640 pull back on this. Maybe there's too many, 1101 00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:22,960 illegal immigrants in this country. We gotta get 1102 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,199 them out because it's causing too much demand 1103 00:40:25,199 --> 00:40:27,280 in terms of housing, raising the price of 1104 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,864 right and everything else. And there's too much 1105 00:40:29,864 --> 00:40:32,505 demand for for education because illegal aliens send 1106 00:40:32,505 --> 00:40:33,784 their kids to schools, then we gotta go 1107 00:40:33,784 --> 00:40:36,505 higher English as second language teachers, and driver's 1108 00:40:36,505 --> 00:40:37,005 license 1109 00:40:37,545 --> 00:40:38,364 that incur 1110 00:40:38,664 --> 00:40:39,144 no, 1111 00:40:39,465 --> 00:40:41,429 for, you know, for illegal aliens that you 1112 00:40:41,429 --> 00:40:43,269 can't get insurance. So, obviously, those of us 1113 00:40:43,269 --> 00:40:45,030 who have car insurance have to pay for 1114 00:40:45,030 --> 00:40:46,869 more of it. I mean, all these costs 1115 00:40:46,869 --> 00:40:49,289 and then going to, basically health care, 1116 00:40:50,230 --> 00:40:51,909 urgent care hospitals, all that kind of stuff. 1117 00:40:51,909 --> 00:40:54,105 Nope. Does Cory Booker think about that? No. 1118 00:40:54,184 --> 00:40:56,824 The common sense is to eliminate the demand, 1119 00:40:56,824 --> 00:40:58,744 which is illegal aliens that aren't here that 1120 00:40:58,744 --> 00:41:00,585 are driving up the cost as well as 1121 00:41:00,585 --> 00:41:02,984 cutting spending and finding all this fraud that's 1122 00:41:02,984 --> 00:41:03,965 clearly evident 1123 00:41:04,344 --> 00:41:05,644 in multiple places 1124 00:41:06,105 --> 00:41:08,425 at state and federal government. But, no, they 1125 00:41:08,425 --> 00:41:10,199 don't they don't think to do that. No. 1126 00:41:10,199 --> 00:41:13,480 Well, I think bureaucracy sometimes that's bloated, that's 1127 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,300 allowed to fester because somebody, 1128 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:17,820 wants power. 1129 00:41:18,199 --> 00:41:20,059 I think if you began cutting 1130 00:41:20,519 --> 00:41:21,260 the bureaucracy, 1131 00:41:21,559 --> 00:41:22,539 if Elon 1132 00:41:23,344 --> 00:41:25,364 Musk was still in charge of Doge. 1133 00:41:26,065 --> 00:41:28,065 I know that Doge is still out there, 1134 00:41:28,065 --> 00:41:29,344 but we need to, 1135 00:41:29,744 --> 00:41:31,125 cut across the board 1136 00:41:31,505 --> 00:41:34,704 so many of these bureaucratic departments that are 1137 00:41:34,704 --> 00:41:36,964 not doing the job, that are totally unnecessary. 1138 00:41:37,630 --> 00:41:39,789 And as you said, you know, Brian, each 1139 00:41:39,789 --> 00:41:41,570 and every one of us should be independent 1140 00:41:41,789 --> 00:41:44,769 workers.
