00:00:00.000 hey everybody how's it going thanks for joining me this afternoon i've got a great stream with
00:00:14.280 a great guest that i think you're really going to enjoy before we get started i just want to
00:00:18.780 remind you that one of the ways we keep the lights on around here is of course subscriptions to blaze
00:00:23.780 tv so if you want to support this show and everything we're doing need to head to blaze
00:00:28.340 blaze tv.com slash oran you get 20 off your subscription today that's blaze tv.com slash
00:00:35.680 oran to get 20 off today well i often have people say oran you're so frustrated with the iran war
00:00:44.040 why haven't you just abandoned donald trump why won't you curse donald trump and then die
00:00:48.500 and the answer is really simple because the iran war well i think is a big mistake is not the only
00:00:54.720 thing the trump administration is doing donald trump is doing a lot of very important things
00:00:58.320 A lot of them on the border when it comes to immigration. And that is my number one issue.
00:01:03.520 So there's no reason to throw all of those possible victories out the window, even if you are voicing serious concerns about a foreign policy decision.
00:01:11.960 And the Trump administration has been scoring just a absolute flurry of big wins here recently across the board from immigration to the courts, to foreign policy, to chasing down Antifa and possible networks there, even education.
00:01:29.800 these are all big serious wins and so i want to stop for a moment and count these and give the
00:01:35.860 administration credit where it's due because this is very serious levels of improvement we've been
00:01:40.460 saying this is exactly the kind of domestic agenda that seems to have been kind of lacking in the last
00:01:45.640 few months and it's been really great to see these things coming out joining me today to talk about
00:01:50.740 this is a fellow at the claremont institute jeremy carl thank you so much for coming on man
00:01:54.840 Thanks so much for having me, Oren.
00:01:57.760 Absolutely. So let's start at the beginning because I think that the biggest ones, the ones I'm most excited about, have been the immigration-related wins that the Trump administration has recently been lining up.
00:02:11.660 So the first thing that we heard here yesterday is that we will be seeing a $100,000 fee attached to H-1B applications.
00:02:21.680 And the change is that previously when they floated this, it was only going to apply to people outside the country who are applying for an H-1B to come in.
00:02:30.260 But now that is going to also apply to anyone who is inside the country currently.
00:02:34.540 So if you're here on a student visa, you're some kind of foreign student working in a university and you want to get an H-1B job, sorry, you're going to have to pay the same fee that someone from outside the country is going to have to pay.
00:02:46.260 This is obviously going to slow down a large amount of the interest in hiring H-1B workers that a differentiation between the cost of hiring a foreigner and hiring an American is a big deal.
00:03:00.240 in fact i've seen some indian uh posters complaining that uh if you want to apply for
00:03:06.140 an h1b right now you could be waiting as long as 179 years uh to to get into the country uh which
00:03:13.120 i don't know that i don't know about you jeremy that's a huge way they're acceptable to me that's
00:03:16.980 exactly precisely yeah you know what man and at 180 years if you get there by all means come on
00:03:23.180 in brother okay that's impressive feat you you belong in america you are you are american stock
00:03:27.940 if you manage that one. Yeah. And let me actually just step back even before we get into the
00:03:33.000 particulars and kind of as you broached this topic with me earlier, just to kind of talk about what
00:03:38.960 is the big picture? Because as a policy wonk, I've been kind of struggling to reconcile the sort of
00:03:46.840 discourse often on X, or even that we're just seeing not just on X, but even among voters of
00:03:51.800 like, it's over, bro, with what I see is just a huge number of wins. And what I kind of end up
00:04:00.140 doing, and as you point out, I mean, there are things like the Iran war that I think are genuinely
00:04:03.500 pretty unpopular with a lot of our voters, whatever you think of it, and that explains
00:04:07.520 some of it, but it doesn't explain all of it. And where I kind of come out is that what Trump is
00:04:13.140 doing is sort of the mirror image of a Democrat administration. And we're not used to that as a
00:04:18.920 GOP. In other words, the Democrats always tell you how wonderful and normal they are, at least
00:04:23.320 historically. They're sort of dropping the mask now, mom and apple pie. And meanwhile, they're
00:04:28.360 running around in the bureaucracy, absolutely undermining everything that's good about America
00:04:32.800 constantly. And you never sort of hear about it. And that's the reverse of that is sort of what I
00:04:37.480 think is going on. Like the really big stuff that some people think we've been promised, like we're
00:04:43.120 not getting 11 million deportations. And I'm not saying that in a glib way, because of course,
00:04:47.980 we should continue to push for more and more or some of these other things. We're not getting
00:04:51.720 some of the really sexy stuff, but there is more important things behind the scenes where the GOP
00:04:58.220 always has lost. And we are just running up the score hugely on these things right now.
00:05:05.280 And even to the point I was in one of my sort of policy wonk group chats and somebody, I can't
00:05:10.440 remember the exact policy issue, but somebody said, oh, well, too bad the Trump administration
00:05:15.680 you know hasn't fixed x and somebody's like oh no you need to check this uh you know office of
00:05:21.600 legal counsel ruling for four months ago and they actually have totally torpedoed x and we didn't
00:05:26.220 even know about it like it was coming so fast and furious some of these wins that we weren't even
00:05:30.400 aware of them and so i just want to communicate a little bit of white pilling here to um to our
00:05:36.660 listeners that there really is a tremendous amount that this administration is doing um that is is
00:05:42.540 really, really good. And there's a lot of sensational people, a lot of good friends of
00:05:45.980 mine who are working really, really hard to make this administration as successful as it can possibly
00:05:50.940 be. Well, one of the big problems is obviously when you're, you know, and by the way, we need
00:05:56.940 11 million deportations. Exactly. Yeah, I see 11 million roll over on the on the deportation
00:06:03.480 counter. But, you know, one of the problems is that when you, you know, and this is a show about
00:06:11.340 how well the trump administration is doing so please you know understand that will be this will
00:06:15.240 be almost all positive but to to give the devil its due here when you are not delivering all the
00:06:22.320 big sexy things when those look like they are losing and those are the only things that we're
00:06:26.540 allowed to talk about and then you're doing a lot of things as you say kind of well let's be frank
00:06:31.940 through the deep state right you're using procedural manipulation to create all these wins
00:06:36.240 they're great but they don't get by definition they can't get the same highlight and so you have
00:06:42.000 to understand that if as an administration official if you're not effectively communicating
00:06:46.880 that those things are going on then all of your supporters are seeing you lose on all the big
00:06:52.520 stuff and not advertise wins on all of these other things and i agree with you 100 we're going to get
00:06:57.740 into things like the racial balancing in schools which are very important to me as a teacher but
00:07:02.640 if you aren't a teacher, you don't even know about that. This stuff exists and you don't know
00:07:06.800 what kind of win this is. And so I do think that it is incumbent on people to give the Trump
00:07:12.820 administration space to succeed. This idea that we have to, if we're not, if we see anything,
00:07:19.920 we immediately say, oh, well, some judge is going to undo this. Some, you know, immediately dismiss
00:07:24.040 whatever it is. Trump will back down off it. You know, like that attitude is unhelpful. But I do
00:07:29.660 think that there is something to be said for you do have to win uh conspicuously right like the
00:07:36.620 the telling people to just cross their fingers and hope that the winds flow is uh not a great
00:07:43.760 communication strategy in you know especially in the current news cycle so i think there's i think
00:07:48.740 there is a um you know there are two steps here where yes people need to be again giving the
00:07:54.820 administration space to win don't try to immediately black pill people don't try to immediately say
00:07:59.020 well just nothing is happening but at the same time Trump administration has to secure big wins
00:08:05.260 and then also needs to come out and say here's where these wins are and be very effective in
00:08:10.600 its communication of where these victories are taking place and I do think that you know here
00:08:16.320 they have been better at this it's I don't know if all of this has been building if this was a
00:08:20.560 planned rollout if you know these things were all just working in the background and happened to
00:08:24.620 have culminated at once. The Trump admin has got like 15, you know, like home run headlines in the
00:08:31.700 last four days. And so, you know, that's fantastic. But, you know, if you spread that out a little
00:08:36.840 more, it'll be a lot easier for people to understand and see the vision of where the
00:08:40.780 admin's going. Sure. And the optics matter. And to just, you know, again, to get into this light
00:08:45.580 blackpilling before we dispense the white pills, right? You look at Minnesota and I thought kind
00:08:51.260 to me the sort of nadir in some ways of the administration was when we backed off on the
00:08:57.980 just immigration enforcement that we should have done um in minneapolis uh in the wake of of you
00:09:04.780 know kind of questions around tactics and we gave the left this apparent win of they chased us out
00:09:12.620 of minneapolis and they kind of won now there was all this revisionist stuff that came out that said
00:09:16.940 no, actually, if you look back, we went back quietly and we actually did all this great
00:09:22.980 deportation stuff once the media went away. That all may be true, but actually sometimes just the
00:09:28.520 optics of the win really do matter. And that was one of those cases where I think I would have
00:09:33.540 happily taken an optical win that would have sent a message to the left that it's over for you guys,
00:09:39.940 even if there had been nothing substantive that ultimately came of it that was different than
00:09:44.200 where we we wound up so i i do agree with you that the comms piece of this is important yeah
00:09:49.900 absolutely so uh we already talked about that fee now this fee was already floated previously and
00:09:56.800 was struck down by a court do you have any i i still don't know all the particulars on this do
00:10:03.380 you have any insight as to why this one might be more likely to uh to succeed because you know
00:10:09.460 people do say well trump says we're going to do things the admin says we're gonna do things
00:10:13.060 some judge says no when we move on and that has been true unfortunately in many cases so
00:10:18.240 yeah can people expect this one to actually stick so uh you know big proviso that i'm not an attorney
00:10:24.440 but i have read some of the legal argumentation i'm not going to try to recapitulate it here but
00:10:29.240 i guess i can safely say they did take into pretty careful account it looked like to me
00:10:34.740 what the judge said was the problems with version 1.0 they actually and the administration has done
00:10:41.020 a good job. I mean, the people at OLC, Office of Legal Counsel, are very smart folks and other
00:10:46.820 good attorneys in the administration. They're very good at taking the feedback of some of these
00:10:51.800 judges and being like, okay, well, you made this rule. Here's how we're going to get around it.
00:10:56.140 And so I think that they've done a number of substantive changes here that are designed
00:11:00.800 to pass legal scrutiny. Now, a little bit of this, sadly, is to go back to Roy Cohn,
00:11:07.280 former mentor of President Trump's, you know, don't tell me what the law is. Tell me who the
00:11:12.240 judge is. I think we may wind up, unfortunately, in that situation. But I think we've put our
00:11:18.300 best foot forward. We've made a serious case for why this is legal. And I'm actually pretty
00:11:23.520 optimistic that this is going to stick. And then the next thing we've seen is the attempt to go
00:11:31.800 ahead and revoke about 200,000 visas from asylum seekers. Now, the Trump administration has been
00:11:39.220 fantastic on this program. We know that H-1Bs and other things get a lot of press for obvious
00:11:46.120 reasons, but there are many, many ways that people are being brought into the United States.
00:11:50.720 The asylum system is a huge one. And so the Trump administration has vastly limited the number of
00:11:56.920 asylum uh visas that are getting uh passed in fact i think someone put out basically it's just
00:12:02.880 white south africaners they are the only ones who are actually getting asylum visas under the trump
00:12:08.000 administration which is just beautiful um but uh we are i already obviously have a lot of people
00:12:16.100 here so the administration has uh said that they're going to suspend 200 000 amnesty visas
00:12:21.300 And also, very importantly, they started to deport the Haitians who were here on temporary protected status, specifically here in Florida.
00:12:29.840 So let me tell you, a report from the ground, you know, Florida man doing doing so much better right now actively.
00:12:36.360 But these are big steps where we're seeing it's not just about stopping the flow, but finding all of these other ways in which you can go ahead and get people out of the country,
00:12:47.280 not just the normal illegal deportations, but even people who are here legally through some
00:12:52.080 kind of asylum visa or through temporary status. We're actually seeing their removal and revocation
00:12:57.200 now. No, that's right. And what happened with these asylum, and originally we'd sort of targeted
00:13:02.020 75 countries and had that overturned by a Biden judge just recently. And so Rubio, again, to his
00:13:08.440 great credit, sort of came in and said, okay, well, we're just pausing it for everybody right
00:13:12.880 now until we can find out what's going on, as Trump might have said. So that's been great.
00:13:22.060 The original logic, by the way, was totally airtight for the 75 countries. You had these
00:13:26.960 people who were coming here on tourist visas from these countries and saying, oh, actually,
00:13:32.380 I'm making an asylum claim. And again, without getting too much in the weeds, pretty much all
00:13:37.060 these claims are bogus and so the administration is um correctly cracking down on that i would
00:13:44.500 assume my friend andrew vprek who's kind of running that in the state department has been very
00:13:49.620 involved in in that sort of thing and again we've totally we've changed around the asylum judgments
00:13:54.980 i mean all this stuff that's in the weeds you're never going to hear about it as a voter but we
00:13:58.980 have completely structurally changed around the system so that the absurd acceptance rates of
00:14:05.380 these fake claims that we used to have are now structurally just not going to happen and and
00:14:11.140 we're down to like accepting like four percent which is still probably um a few percent higher
00:14:16.740 than it really should be but is at least sort of in the ballpark of of what's acceptable and sends
00:14:21.620 the right message and then finally on the wins when it comes to suspending uh or for immigration
00:14:29.140 uh we apparently and this one's awesome have apparently just suspended all immigrant visa
00:14:34.980 interviews uh we're just done sorry and i love the way that they they did this like well uh we're
00:14:40.640 reviewing procedures on this and uh you know there's a lot of training that has to go on so
00:14:45.660 we're just shutting it all down and that's beautiful because that's exactly the kind of
00:14:50.880 procedural uh you know control that is necessary to do these changes how do you avoid the court
00:14:57.320 rulings and all this other stuff well i'm sorry we got it you know there's this procedure we've
00:15:01.840 got to go through you know regulations can't can't if we can't get these guys properly vetted then we
00:15:06.980 just have to put everybody on hold until that happens i mean again just exactly the kind of
00:15:12.040 thing you want to see uh using the power of the deep state against itself in this case no absolutely
00:15:17.240 i mean again this is this is us acting like democrats in the best of all possible ways right
00:15:21.320 we're doing these kind of procedural nonsense to get the correct substantive outcome because
00:15:27.720 some other, you know, branch of the state is not going to do the right thing. And so it's great.
00:15:35.700 Yeah, I mean, I love it. Oh, and I should tack this on. I didn't know which category to drop
00:15:40.460 this in, but it's just fantastic. There's also now ICE proceedings against Ilhan Omar for fraud.
00:15:46.040 So I was saying, you know, I think Trump gets at least a free 10 point bump in the polls if we can
00:15:51.940 deport her by trebuchet. The trebuchet is, I mean, I understand that would be, we would definitely
00:15:59.120 get 10 points with the base if we did that, but just in all seriousness, right? Like if we were
00:16:03.480 to deport her, like it would be worth 10,000, maybe even a hundred thousand normal deportations
00:16:08.480 because what it would say is you have no immunity. If you have broken the law, if we determine
00:16:15.040 that you have broken the law, that you've committed fraud against the immigration system,
00:16:20.100 it doesn't matter how powerful a person you've become, you have to go back. And that is going
00:16:26.400 to send a, if we can actually succeed there, it's going to send a tremendous, tremendous public
00:16:31.500 message. All right. Well, to move to another category where Trump administration is racking
00:16:38.360 up wins, they are winning in the courts right now. So we just saw the Ninth Circuit Court,
00:16:44.160 which is, of course, the California's super liberal court that everyone hates, say that
00:16:49.360 you can't stop deportations for past harm so you can't look back at what uh you know ice has done
00:16:54.860 and say oh well because they did this and we think it's wrong or there's some kind of issue here
00:16:58.980 then we can put a halt on you know turning people over because we're worried about their safety he
00:17:03.160 says no actually ice is allowed to continue to operate despite this so it means even in the most
00:17:07.860 liberal jurisdiction we can find in the united states ice is not being held up by the courts
00:17:12.600 in this area yeah i mean again terrific and just a testament to the fact that we've brought in some
00:17:18.120 good attorneys who make serious arguments. I think we learned from a lot of our failures
00:17:22.120 in 1.0, where we did a bunch of sexy looking executive orders that we're not going to pass
00:17:27.580 muster. We paid a lot of attention. As much as people like me get frustrated and just want to be
00:17:31.940 like, defy the judges, there are reasons. I mean, it's not like the Trump administration senior guys
00:17:37.780 are being like, oh my gosh, Jeremy, we never thought of that until you mentioned it to us,
00:17:42.980 right? I mean, they have a strategy here. I do wish they would be a little bit more aggressive
00:17:47.600 in times where district judges, for example, are openly defying the Supreme Court, I think that's
00:17:53.840 the right opportunity for us to go say, hey, district judge, we're just going to ignore you
00:17:58.020 because the Supreme Court has already ruled on this. And that way, we're sort of not stepping
00:18:02.720 on the judicial toes too much, but we're still sending a message to these district judges that
00:18:07.160 they can't do what they want. But that having been said, right, it's all part of a legal strategy of
00:18:13.960 getting serious people in the administration who can make serious legal arguments with very much
00:18:19.340 in mind. And I can tell you again, I've talked to lawyers at the top level of this administration.
00:18:23.260 They are laser focused on, ultimately, what do we think, as many of them are ex-Supreme Court
00:18:29.340 clerks, what will the Supreme Court accept, ultimately, if it has to go there? So they're
00:18:33.960 thinking about it in the right way. And then the next big win for the Trump administration in the
00:18:38.840 courts was the fact that the Supreme Court has basically stopped another judge, a lower judge,
00:18:46.020 from halting Trump's executive order when it comes to mail-in ballots. Of course, we need the
00:18:51.280 SAVE Act. It's so ridiculous that Senate Republicans will not make this happen. It shows you that the
00:18:56.700 party is still itself at war with Trump in many ways. But the Trump administration is looking for
00:19:02.640 alternative ways to at least address this problem as much as possible if the legislation simply
00:19:08.080 won't go through and one of them is through this executive order uh as i understand the executive
00:19:12.360 order does a few things first uh it compiles a list of every legal voter registered in the states
00:19:18.080 and requires uh the executive branch to send that out to the states before the election
00:19:23.560 it then also forbids the u.s postal service from sending a ballot to anyone who's not on this list
00:19:31.480 So basically, it's a runaround way to say, you cannot distribute a ballot to anyone who is here illegally. They have to be a legal citizen, they have to be registered to vote. And if you attempt to send this ballot out, then the post office itself will just refuse to deliver that ballot. So it's a good way to cut it out.
00:19:52.460 It also explicitly directs the DOJ to go after prosecutions of anyone who is suspected of attempting to get a illegal ballot to an illegal voter.
00:20:03.520 And so you're putting an enforcement mechanism direction in there along with this way to more or less match up the legal voting registry with who will actually receive ballots in the mail.
00:20:14.640 Yeah, absolutely. And again, a parallel to what the Democrats did with us in the election shenanigans that they did where they were doing stuff, unlike what we're trying to do, that was sort of, frankly, transparently illegal or transparently under the cover of COVID, violating certain traditional laws or precepts.
00:20:35.540 And they kind of managed to run out the clock judicially by the time we got a ruling that
00:20:39.700 might be favorable.
00:20:40.400 It's like, ah, too bad.
00:20:42.000 It's just too close to the election to go fix it.
00:20:45.480 You know, I am probably less optimistic without, again, I'm not an attorney, but I'm less
00:20:50.500 optimistic just having read some of the stuff on this, that this will fully sail through
00:20:54.500 intact.
00:20:55.000 But I could definitely see a situation where they're going to say, hey, we have a problem
00:20:59.360 about this.
00:21:00.340 We're not going to let it go through, or at least we're not going to let some aspect of
00:21:03.620 it go through.
00:21:04.180 But look, oh, it's October.
00:21:05.540 you know we don't have time to deal with this by the midterms and that in of itself would be
00:21:10.900 a huge win and and ultimately like we have some control over the postal service uh running uh as
00:21:18.100 and again i don't know how narrow we can make that but i i hope that we just sort of take the position
00:21:23.460 of like that's fine we're not delivering these ballots um and uh do things that way and play
00:21:29.300 a real hard ball um do you remember when there was the democrat panic uh that trump was destroying
00:21:36.960 the u.s postal service to stop mail-in balloting like yeah you you had like i think it's like
00:21:43.140 washington post reporters chasing down uh you know uh mailboxes that got removed saying that
00:21:48.820 trump was you know gonna gonna crush and recycle all of the all of the mailboxes to shut down all
00:21:55.080 all uh voting well hopefully that is actually happening yes make make it real make their make
00:22:00.360 their feet as with many of the accusations that the democrats make against us you know you're
00:22:05.440 sort of like boy i wish we were wish we were doing that so maybe this time we'll actually
00:22:09.440 make it happen so another big win in a different category uh we had marco rubio just come out and
00:22:17.420 say that uh they are putting sanctions on uh this organization uh naming them uh a global terrorist
00:22:25.820 I'm not sure exactly how to pronounce it, but it's basically the AI Collective.
00:22:30.580 It's a group operating in Europe, and apparently they have done many different things, including
00:22:37.340 providing encrypted information, communications, servers, email, and basically connecting the
00:22:45.860 global Antifa movement.
00:22:47.520 Basically, these guys are like the information brokers for a lot of radical left-wing violent
00:22:53.640 groups operating both in europe and the united states uh you know it was correct to ultimately
00:22:58.840 declare antifa a global terror organization because it is it has these international connections and
00:23:04.480 a lot of this is being funded overseas a lot of the information is flowing uh from overseas uh now
00:23:10.640 this isn't just shutting down a website or shutting down a service if you are in any way attached to
00:23:16.580 this organization if you are giving them money if you are receiving aid from them if you are in
00:23:22.400 communications with them if you are banking them if you are a tech platform who is hosting them
00:23:27.800 all of these things can land you in serious hot water you could receive sanctions you could
00:23:32.380 receive financial or legal penalties even face jail time so this is not just saying oh well
00:23:37.920 we're taking down the website where you know antifa guys get their email anybody connected
00:23:43.140 to this could ultimately face very serious charges now again i'm really hoping this is the tip of the
00:23:47.840 iceberg we've been waiting to see antifa crackdowns for a long time still not getting a lot of people
00:23:52.380 in jail, still not seeing a lot of people rolled up, but hopefully that's because this is the
00:23:57.120 indication that we're watching a top-down approach where you're going to cut off the head of these
00:24:01.460 funding sources, the information sources, and then we will see further action domestically
00:24:06.380 going after these groups. No, that's right. I think you've really hit on the key point,
00:24:11.380 which is it's not just like, oh, we took down a website and wrapped them on the knuckles and said,
00:24:16.600 you know, don't do this anymore. We've said, you're a terrorist organization. And now anybody,
00:24:21.960 not just like all the people who are involved, who are now basically running scared and presumably to some level fugitives from justice or fugitives from the military.
00:24:31.080 I'm not sure what the exact legal ramifications of declaring them a terrorist organization are.
00:24:39.060 But everybody who's even tangentially associated with them is now not just thinking twice, but three times about whether they want to do that.
00:24:48.040 And not just that, there are five other organizations of different types that are probably helping Antifa right now. And everybody associating with those guys in some way is all of a sudden like, oh, wait a second, are we going to be next? So I agree with you, of course, if we follow that up by actually perp walking a bunch of guys like that will be make a really, really visible point.
00:25:10.860 but even just doing this totally changes the complexion of the fight against antifa and so
00:25:17.240 again it's just a huge win for the administration as far as i'm concerned yeah no yeah not taking
00:25:22.000 anything away from them i just i want to continue to urge to see further action uh you know this
00:25:27.420 has to be a domino you know that hits another domino uh we can't just declare it and move on
00:25:32.660 uh but but it is a critical step uh one that i think is significant uh and i'm very very happy
00:25:37.960 to see it kudos to marco rubio and his team for getting that done uh next thing i want to talk
00:25:43.180 about is something we hinted at previously the department of education which little miffed it's
00:25:47.340 not gone was told it was going to be gone wanted to be gone but i understand that takes a lot more
00:25:52.120 than than simply trying to shrink it down that said um the doe has just said uh that they are
00:25:58.900 going to advise against racial balancing in education when it comes to discipline so for
00:26:04.120 people who don't know. Functionally, it's illegal to discipline minority students. It's just like
00:26:11.940 affirmative action. We have to put our thumbs on the scale artificially to drive up the numbers
00:26:18.440 of people who are being disciplined in other races and avoid it in the minorities, this kind of
00:26:23.440 thing. I used to be a teacher at a majority minority school. And in that school, basically,
00:26:29.120 the discipline was horrible because all of our students were minorities. District was already
00:26:33.080 suspending too many minorities and so if you suspended any of our students by definition you
00:26:37.820 would be suspending all minorities and we'd drive the number up so they tried to find all these other
00:26:42.860 ways to discipline which did not work at all uh and so ultimately we saw like just horrific results
00:26:48.900 uh yeah i had a one principal who got knocked out trying to break up a a fight in the cafeteria i
00:26:54.720 had one teacher who was basically sleeping in the mail room all day because uh he got put out of the
00:26:59.960 classroom for trying to stop a fight when someone called him a racist i mean just ridiculous stuff
00:27:05.100 we had to wait until basically there were multiple prison riot style fights with dozens and dozens of
00:27:11.480 students fighting uh and those got circulated on the news and then they finally allowed us
00:27:16.240 to start suspending uh students again uh and it worked great like we could suddenly teach
00:27:21.360 everybody like you didn't have you know a bunch of kids like running out of the classroom yelling
00:27:25.340 f you or whatever like you actually had significant penalties and we were actually
00:27:30.100 able to do our jobs uh but then slowly over time uh obviously we were suspending i think like i
00:27:36.460 think we accounted by ourselves of like 10 percent of our minority suspensions in the district and
00:27:41.700 they're like oh nope our numbers are too bad again and they pulled that back and our school
00:27:46.080 went right back to being a disaster so removing this expectation of school districts to constantly
00:27:52.020 keep an eye on you know which percentage of any given minority is being disciplined and not giving
00:27:58.060 them this like top-down pressure to cook those stats by artificially avoiding these punishments
00:28:04.600 is huge like it actually does make a big difference for the teachers the students everybody involved
00:28:10.140 no and this is almost the prototypical example of some of the sort of behind the scene things that
00:28:15.100 we're talking about because it's it's absolutely enormous and by the way it was one of the most
00:28:19.540 evil things the Obama administration did. Because the thing that you're describing where we didn't
00:28:25.020 pay attention to those numbers racially was the status quo before Obama came in. And very
00:28:30.480 consciously, and I think this came from the head of the snake, I think this came basically from
00:28:35.000 Obama that he wanted to do this, said, we're going to do this racial discipline scorecards
00:28:42.180 without paying any attention to the fact that the rates of suspension basically reflected the rates
00:28:48.720 of offense by race. And this, as I talked about in my book, The Unprotected Class,
00:28:54.880 this leads pretty much directly to Trayvon Martin, who many of your listeners may remember was
00:29:02.520 the young man from Florida who got killed by George Zimmerman in what was ultimately he was
00:29:10.380 acquitted because it was acting in self-defense. And then the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school
00:29:16.360 shooting in Florida. Both of those things, those students, Trayvon Martin and this other student
00:29:21.520 would have both been suspended from school and had all sorts of records. Trayvon Martin had been
00:29:25.680 caught with burglary tools and jewelry that had been found stolen. But in an effort to racially
00:29:32.200 keep those numbers low, these sorts of things were hidden. And therefore, it affected the entire way
00:29:38.340 that these stories were reported and unfolded. And again, you know, this sort of thing is going
00:29:44.020 affect the school discipline in your kid's school. I mean, it will be this little behind-the-scenes
00:29:48.780 thing is going to be the difference between your kid's school potentially operating in a pretty
00:29:54.840 functional way or being a nightmare to which you have to pull the kid out of school. And so again,
00:30:00.700 just not something that's generated huge headlines, but will have an absolutely huge
00:30:05.200 impact. And again, kudos to the administration. So last thing I want to talk about here
00:30:10.640 is the affordability debate that debate that's right burritos are back on the table
00:30:15.620 um so you have a scenario where a lot of these establishment conservative guys uh got on their
00:30:25.280 really really tired talk radio platforms and said hey you know i see you there young white man and
00:30:32.340 yes i may have for the last five to ten years made a small fortune uh off of noticing that the
00:30:40.700 entire system is designed to hate you and destroy you to ensure that you don't get any jobs that
00:30:47.300 you don't get education that you can't afford a house that you can't get married that you can't
00:30:52.460 have kids but it's time for you to be a real man and pull yourself up by your bootstraps and eat
00:30:58.780 nothing but sawdust until you die because that's what a real conservative does that that's how real
00:31:04.340 america works we're not gonna we're not gonna notice any of the systemic issues we're not gonna
00:31:08.820 notice any of the stuff we literally spent the last decade talking about it's all your fault
00:31:13.460 young men are just too lazy uh and that's why you're failing uh don't tell me that americans
00:31:18.760 can't afford things even though i literally was just talking about under biden how everybody
00:31:22.820 couldn't afford groceries uh but no magically don't worry it's all even though grocery prices
00:31:27.280 haven't gone down at all it's all fine uh and so there's no reason for you to complain about this
00:31:31.840 it's disastrous messaging and it's all coming from the same people who love the iran war and
00:31:37.680 hate jd vance like well what a surprise yeah wonder wonder why this venn diagram is a circle
00:31:42.880 uh but uh jd vance knows exactly how disastrous this messaging is and he got out in front of it
00:31:50.540 with the administration and was being very clear about the fact that affordability is a real issue
00:31:57.140 That is something that needs to be addressed. And really great messaging by him. He tied it, of course, to immigration and jobs, saying if we deport people, housing prices go down. If we encourage H-1B reform, then Americans get those jobs.
00:32:14.540 There are active things that we can do that are right wing. It's not going around and saying, hey, guys, we need socialism. Hey, we need all of this, you know, all these government programs. It's not all the handouts that these conservative Republicans are so worried about, but it's these basic quality of life improvements.
00:32:31.420 We're going to get rid of DEI. We're going to deport illegals. We're going to take pressure off the real estate market. We're going to remove these artificial labor pools so that Americans are going to get these jobs and get paid more.
00:32:44.300 All of these agenda items are right wing. They are conservative. They are already promises that Trump is making. And if done correctly, they can directly address this issue.
00:32:54.420 You don't have to, you know, dive into the well of Zorah Mamdani to ultimately bring this.
00:32:59.420 But and I think this was also very important.
00:33:01.820 Vance was very clear.
00:33:03.020 If we do not address this, if we do not treat this as a serious issue, ultimately, these people will become socialists.
00:33:09.260 We're not going to defeat socialism by telling young people, you don't get a house.
00:33:13.340 You can't ever go out to eat food.
00:33:14.940 Just suck it up.
00:33:15.960 You know, we got to go to war.
00:33:17.340 Like that is not actually a winning message to Americans.
00:33:21.320 they want to hear how you're going to make their life better domestically here now that's what's
00:33:26.420 important to them it's about the economy stupid like so actually just get this done and so i think
00:33:31.820 it was very good that i mean i didn't expect anything different from jd vance but it's very
00:33:36.920 good that he got out in front of this messaging uh you know stopped i think what was basically like
00:33:42.440 a messaging doom spiral coming from a lot of these establishment conservative commentators
00:33:47.120 and delivered a good, balanced message on how we can address this problem in a very direct way
00:33:54.040 without, again, moving into any of the territory that these guys are so scared of.
00:33:59.380 Yeah, absolutely. And I would say, as somebody who likes to try to build bridges on our side,
00:34:05.640 even between some people in our coalition who I may not necessarily love,
00:34:09.560 but I understand that you need a wide variety of folks to get to 50 plus one,
00:34:14.000 I think a certain way to square the circle is to observe that the biggest areas where we really do have this affordability crisis are education, health care, and housing.
00:34:27.100 And these are areas that have had high degrees of government interference in them.
00:34:32.160 And frankly, if we eliminate it in a very, this is lovely free market language, a lot of this stuff, the prices are going to go down.
00:34:40.760 And I think the other brilliant thing that you note that J.D. Vance did that I would just repeat six days and twice on Sunday is to tie this explicitly to immigration.
00:34:51.420 Because I think the lie that you're experiencing in your urban emergency room, the housing stuff, that really is very tightly.
00:35:00.120 There have actually been some good studies shown.
00:35:01.960 And I'm not saying that immigration is the whole piece, but it is a significant contributor to these things.
00:35:07.400 To the extent that we can make this really tight kind of pairing, I think it will, in the public mind, it will be really useful. This kind of gets to a big pet peeve of mine, something I have beaten people over the head with anytime I can corral them, which is that it never makes sense to pay attention to immigration polling in the abstract.
00:35:27.960 Because as soon as you start doing anything usefully on immigration, your numbers with moderate normie are going to go down on that issue.
00:35:35.940 But the bottom line is, if you think, as you and I both do, that immigration is this that press that one button and it really helps solve all of our problems, you're going to wind up with a situation where if we really do aggressive immigration enforcement, people might have us be 30 percent underwater on immigration.
00:35:54.940 They're like, you know, like nice suburban housewife is like, well, these guys are kind of mean, but oh, I can afford my house.
00:36:01.520 And they don't necessarily connect those two things, even though we're trying to make them always connect them.
00:36:05.560 But on balance, they're going to be like, yeah, I can live with it because my life is overall better.
00:36:11.620 And so, you know, never anybody who starts trying to push negative immigration polling on you.
00:36:16.560 I just think they are a bad actor or at least not a smart actor.
00:36:20.160 yeah in theory they want their friends to think they're a good person because they cried over
00:36:24.680 consuela's deportation but in practice once they are paying less for their home and they can
00:36:31.500 actually get through the emergency room without waiting nine hours and their kids in a classroom
00:36:36.780 where you know most of the people speak english like all of a sudden you know well i guess i can
00:36:42.800 survive the rest of the trump administration if if that's what's going on i think that's exactly
00:36:47.340 right it's one of those issues where all the pain is up front and all the benefits flow after right
00:36:52.620 like you just you have to get through this pressure point you have to get this threshold
00:36:56.140 and once you hit the threshold it just makes everything better like we make the joke but it
00:36:59.480 really is the fix everything button all you have to do is hit the button you just have to have the
00:37:04.100 strength of will to hit the button and ignore you know as as my colleague john doyle says uh you know
00:37:10.080 the the future of the country is predicated on your ability to ignore the tears of women and
00:37:15.340 immigrants you know and that that really is like if you can just get through that part uh then you
00:37:21.020 you're going to see the improvement across the board and that's where ultimately you're going
00:37:24.860 to win the argument they'll like you when you win that's really all there is to it and so you have
00:37:29.360 you have to you know there there are things that are worth sacrificing political capital
00:37:33.900 political capital is there to be spent but you have to be careful where you spend and so i'm
00:37:39.300 very happy to spend it on deportations less happy to spend it in in iran uh so so let's let's spend
00:37:45.180 the capital there and i think that securing a lot of these domestic wins is going to bolster the
00:37:49.860 base i think it's going to give you some momentum uh hopefully you know you can see some improvement
00:37:54.700 in the midterms now i will ask you this before we go to the questions of the people um we did see
00:38:01.160 republicans meeting with democrats uh there was a meeting uh between the two parties a lot of
00:38:06.840 speculation on what it is closed door so we're not we don't know for sure though a lot of people
00:38:10.920 are speculating that basically this is the republicans assuming that they're going to lose
00:38:14.920 in the midterms and trying to find some kind of common ground with the democrats or at least you
00:38:20.760 know walk them off the edge because it's very clear the democrats have said repeatedly you know
00:38:24.980 we're impeaching trump we're bringing charges we're investigating everybody we're stopping
00:38:29.140 everything um i don't think that a meeting is going to change that probably uh but what what
00:38:35.280 is your assessment of possible midterm outcomes do you think that the the party is ultimately hedging
00:38:41.200 for that response? And if so, that becomes concerning because obviously the Trump
00:38:46.800 administration is doing as much as it can now, but is only going to have a much harder time once
00:38:52.280 it loses control of Congress, if that is the outcome. So what can we expect if these wins,
00:38:57.780 if that ends up being the case? Yeah, well, I think a lot of our party, particularly in the
00:39:04.760 Senate, is just more comfortable being in the minority because you're not responsible for
00:39:07.860 anything. You don't have to do anything. We've seen even in the majority. If I had to point to
00:39:13.060 the biggest large-scale black bill on the administration, and it's not really an
00:39:17.560 administration issue, but it's just that we've encoded so little of the good things we've done
00:39:22.240 in legislation. Now, the executive orders are actually not quite as easily reversible,
00:39:27.800 both politically and substantively, as some people would have you think. The next Democratic
00:39:32.180 president can't just wave a magic wand and make it all go away, but they can make way more of it
00:39:37.480 go away than you and I might like. I would say I'm pretty pessimistic about the midterms,
00:39:44.440 but I do actually think there's a broad range of outcomes that are possible. I think we could
00:39:49.760 even pick up a seat in the Senate or two. It's not beyond the pale. It's not beyond the pale
00:39:54.880 that we would be in the minority, but I just sort of sense that we're a little bit on a knife edge.
00:40:00.320 I mean, we have some opportunities in places like Minnesota, New Hampshire, and Michigan
00:40:04.360 to really pick up seats if we can just because they have bad New Hampshire have an okay candidate
00:40:11.320 but in Minnesota and Michigan they have really bad candidates and you know I think we could pick
00:40:18.020 up stuff there so and we've we've reworked the map that that it's not even impossible that we
00:40:22.400 keep the house although I would say that's not the most likely scenario so I'm I'm nervous about
00:40:28.000 what our our guys are doing because I don't really trust our congressional leadership particularly
00:40:33.380 to put it mildly. But, you know, I do think that there's opportunities. I would also say, again,
00:40:40.300 in terms of long term good things, obviously, I'd love to keep control. But in many ways,
00:40:45.660 giving the Democrats control even of one branch is probably the best thing we could do for 2028
00:40:50.600 because it exposes their craziness that they're able to slightly hide to the mass voter. And so
00:40:59.480 much of what I think helped Trump in 2028 or 2024 is that the Democrats were just unrestrained and
00:41:05.420 they were doing all of this crazy stuff against him and Joe moderate voter out there was like not
00:41:11.260 not buying it um and so I think uh you know even if we we lose in the midterms we could win over
00:41:18.580 the long long run but I think uh right now my crystal ball is is pretty cloudy I'm not I'm not
00:41:23.700 doomsaying about it although I I would leave me put a gun to my head I'd say more likely we're
00:41:29.020 going to have a bad scenario but but i think uh having a good scenario is still quite possible
00:41:33.580 if we if we can close strong yeah i guess the issue is ultimately that the number of joe average
00:41:39.880 moderate voter is dwindling quickly you know the the that the middle by which you're supposed to
00:41:45.220 win those elections uh is getting smaller and smaller and most of the gains the trump
00:41:50.220 administration made um were frankly in kind of the podcast bro sphere you know it was hispanic
00:41:57.220 young men and you know the young men in general you know a lot of the gains um that trump made
00:42:03.120 were with voters that are now very unhappy with kind of the current situation crunchy moms that
00:42:08.920 kind of thing um i'm not saying that you have to cater to them exclusively or anything but i do
00:42:14.980 think one of the things i've seen from some of the admin is like the desire to dump everything
00:42:20.580 on that crowd and say well this is this is why we lost when you know the left spent all of their
00:42:26.380 time saying this is why you want like these are the you know what was the number one diagnosis
00:42:30.100 coming out of yeah trump's 2024 win oh the podcasters won him this one right it's him going
00:42:35.420 on joe rogan it's him going on theo vaughn yeah you know it's appearances on tucker carlson and
00:42:39.900 these kind of people that are swaying uh voters and then it's well we don't need those guys anyway
00:42:45.440 and they're the problem and i think that this is the wrong lesson to learn ultimately i get that
00:42:50.080 there's a lot of fickleness in that crowd and in many ways they turned on the trump administration
00:42:54.540 for doing the job i mean the fact that theo von or or i forget which one was out there like oh man
00:42:59.680 um uh you i can't believe they're actually deporting people like joe rogan i think it was
00:43:04.260 you know so obviously like when you vote for the guy who says i'm going to deportations and then
00:43:08.140 you get deportations you're like well i can't support that anymore well that that's the fault
00:43:11.680 of the guy but i think you see where where i'm going with that that the kind of the the general
00:43:15.820 direction of uh blaming you know much of the maga coalition that got won over for the 2024 election
00:43:21.920 on why you would lose 20 26 midterms i think is is faulty yeah and notably jd vance is not falling
00:43:28.000 for that um yeah kind of thing and he's gone on some of these podcasts he went on rogan
00:43:33.600 etc he's he is smartly understanding that yeah it doesn't mean that we are necessarily their bffs or
00:43:39.200 that we're totally aligned it's that we understand that they are um very important uh whether or not
00:43:45.760 we love everything that comes out of their mouths i honestly think that in most cases
00:43:50.480 there are people that a gun to head are more like us than like them particularly as much as them
00:43:57.060 becomes they them and the dsa um but you know they're not going to give us everything we want
00:44:02.640 and that's coalition politics but you still want to keep them as much inside the tent as they can
00:44:08.360 maha is also not a big ma guy personally but they're really really important guys like mike
00:44:13.640 cernovich have talked a lot about this so this is just this is coalition politics that's what it's
00:44:18.080 about. We need to keep as many of these folks on side. And that means certainly engaging with them
00:44:23.260 on their shows. All right, guys. Well, we have a large number of questions from the people here,
00:44:30.080 so we better switch over to that. But before we do, Mr. Carl, is there anything you want people
00:44:33.960 to check out where people can find your work? Well, I'm at Real Jeremy Carl on Twitter. I'm
00:44:39.020 over at the Claremont Institute. I have a substack, The Course of Empire, a recent book,
00:44:43.440 the unprotected class i have a new book coming out next year uh preliminary title what's the
00:44:48.420 matter with minnesota i'm actually almost kind of hoping that we don't win the midterm in minnesota
00:44:52.520 because it will complicate my book titling but i still decided i have enough of a partisan that
00:44:57.640 that i want us to win anyway and i'll figure out the book title yeah you're patriot enough to change
00:45:01.980 your book title if necessary absolutely we will we will change it but those are the sorts of things
00:45:06.440 that i'm doing that's true true dedication to the cause all right let's go to the questions of the
00:45:11.840 people here uh treadle says is god giving us the trump our enemies fear that's always what we're
00:45:17.160 praying for man just just give me the trump my enemies you know the the psychotic fever dream
00:45:22.040 where they're afraid of that trump i want that trump that's the guy that guy uh cherry coke
00:45:27.980 nixon says seeing incredible immigration uh enforcement numbers put out by ice yet uh every
00:45:33.420 big box store looks like bumbai airport or a middle eastern bazaar yeah i mean look man i
00:45:38.360 i hear you i feel that i've made this joke multiple times you know my test of immigration
00:45:42.700 is walmart if i can walk in my walmart and have a conversation in english something has gone right
00:45:47.820 so far i cannot do that uh so there is uh you know there are two things that are true the trump
00:45:53.400 administration is better on immigration than any administration ever in my lifetime and probably
00:45:59.700 before it and also it's insufficient we need more we need more and i'm sorry i know people oh you're
00:46:06.540 blackpilling you're you know you're ungrateful you're a traitor a pain whatever i don't care
00:46:11.480 i can do the math if biden brings in 20 million in four years and we deport five million that's
00:46:17.320 five million we would have more than we would have deported under mitt romney or kamala harris
00:46:21.400 obviously but it's still way too few like it's just not enough so i'm you know here to praise
00:46:27.020 the trump administration today i'm absolutely going to do that but i hear you like ultimately
00:46:30.760 we need more and i'm not going to pretend that we don't need more and i'm not going to shut up about
00:46:34.340 it so that people can you know pat themselves on the back like they're doing a great job but we
00:46:39.620 need them to do a better job and i know that's hard to hear when you're doing a great job but
00:46:43.800 it's just the case there's there's no margin for error here it's the future of the country
00:46:47.960 yeah absolutely and i'm sort of in some ways i'm a bad person to answer this because i live in
00:46:52.800 montana and nothing looks like the mumbai airport or the middle eastern bazaar uh where i live
00:46:57.800 probably almost uniquely in the country uh and i hate to uh like my neighbors in montana always
00:47:03.380 get angry when you do anything that would suggest that people should move to Montana. But I feel that
00:47:08.060 even Montanans would welcome patriots who listen to the Oren McIntyre show. So if you don't want
00:47:13.520 your Walmart to look like the Mumbai airport or the Middle Eastern Bazaar, you will certainly
00:47:17.540 find that. Here, even my older boys who are sort of working in sort of, you know, as kind of just
00:47:26.600 doing labor, right? And those are middle American white kids. And I'm not exclusively in Montana,
00:47:32.660 but but pretty heavily even even even those sorts of occupations so uh it can happen and it's a good
00:47:38.800 what it does there's a one of my favorite quotes from the good old boys i believe it was the great
00:47:43.900 political sage bog beef who said if you pay a white woman enough she will bring you a hamburger
00:47:48.840 like we have the economic technology we really do um nixon also says uh keep hearing about admin
00:47:57.440 cracking down on h1bs yet white man can't find jobs and i've never seen more be patient uh student
00:48:02.760 driver stickers on used nissans with demonic statues on their dashboards dashboards uh again
00:48:09.560 man uh i think you're all oran i'm sorry it's cherry coke nixon you're all oh yeah i'm super
00:48:16.200 chatting to myself yeah uh you know uh i mean again i i agree with you that no more needs to
00:48:21.580 be done but i think that we are seeing big uh attempts from the trump administration to call
00:48:27.060 this as much as possible. I mean, we have large numbers of Indians writing feverish, angry posts
00:48:33.780 about how they're never going to get into the country. Obviously, I never worked in or currently
00:48:40.000 don't work in an industry where H-1Bs are a significant impact. So I have a harder time
00:48:45.780 gauging this. I can gauge my local Walmart. I have a harder time gauging where we're at. But I do
00:48:51.000 know that a lot of these uh companies were doing everything they could to like scam hb h1bs into
00:48:57.240 the country they were hiding job posts from americans uh they were doing all this reshuffling
00:49:01.540 and things and so a lot of this is trying to find all the loopholes trying to find all of the
00:49:06.940 different ways that uh you know the average american is being deceived and that's going to
00:49:10.660 take time from the trump administration i that's not a blank check that's not oh they don't never
00:49:15.000 have to address the problem uh but we are seeing direct attempts to do that here and now so i'm
00:49:19.960 going to praise it while we can yes we're going to have to wait for those results but in the
00:49:23.420 meantime i'm not going to you know crap on the administration for taking the steps to solve this
00:49:28.220 problem because i didn't see everybody get hired tomorrow you know that there is going to be some
00:49:32.260 lag time there sean wyland says uh joe clark lean on me tried to warn us in 1989 uh not familiar
00:49:42.500 that reference sorry sean it's from a movie i'm trying to remember one uh but but he was a very
00:49:48.900 strict african-american principal at a school had uh really emphasized discipline i can't remember
00:49:55.940 the movie title but i am in fact old enough to get that reference as a as a core gen xer well
00:50:01.980 my favorite's the substitute you know uh the one where uh what's the action star uh he just ends
00:50:08.200 up like killing all of the gang members in the school like just comes as the substitute teacher
00:50:12.440 but he's actually like a former army you know special forces guy just starts you know taking
00:50:16.880 about by one one by one uh tom barringer i'm sad that i did uh belgians are uh are evil trust me
00:50:27.060 says i prefer oran twerking with his mind over my least i was twerking with her buddy thanks for the
00:50:31.820 great work uh each week and thanks mr carl for your impact well thank you sir and also i'm sure
00:50:37.480 now everybody has a horrific image in their head so uh thank you for that uh let's see here
00:50:41.980 Nixon says, Chamber of Commerce says, if you can't get hired over a cheap H-1B brought in by a tribal cartel running HR and making 75% less, you are simply a loser. Yes, sadly, that is the attempt of many conservative commentators have been pushing that line. It's insulting the American people. It's ridiculous.
00:51:01.420 And as we both said, very glad that J.D. Vance is very smart to step right over that and get to the heart of issue and tie it to things that the administration is doing directly to try to bring those numbers down and make them better.
00:51:13.260 Yeah. And the Chamber of Commerce is really sort of at the core of a lot of these problems. And I think it's important to note, and I haven't seen these comprehensive numbers in the US, but we can actually point to pretty good numbers in, I think it's Denmark, where they sort of graph the total net economic contribution of various immigrant groups.
00:51:33.240 And frankly, with the exception of, surprise, immigrants from the rest of Europe or America,
00:51:38.860 it's all negative on a net basis, even though, of course, many of these people are employed.
00:51:43.680 And this is where we can sort of hold the feet to the fire of the, quote unquote, free
00:51:47.800 marketers on our side to say, hey, look, privatizing profits with some business and
00:51:53.500 socializing losses among the taxpayers of America is not free market.
00:51:58.460 And of course, we object to it for many reasons beyond just that.
00:52:01.880 But again, as a coalition builder on our side, I think this is just something we can insist on, that our solution is truly also the more free market solution.
00:52:12.260 It's not just a solution that is good for patriotic reasons, although it certainly is that as well.
00:52:19.580 Sean Weiland again says, it's the economy stupid is a winning message 100%.
00:52:23.700 Yep, I think that's absolutely something that needs to be drilled into the head of the GOP right now and its commentary class.
00:52:30.260 sharon also says huey long posting will continue till we get results yeah for those who don't know
00:52:36.180 uh jd vance referenced uh uh huey long uh during one of his speeches which uh sent uh the usual
00:52:43.320 subs uh suspects into apple absolutely apoplectic uh responses but yeah i think he's basically
00:52:50.460 trolling them at this point doing this stuff yeah and i think the irony is like to the disappointment
00:52:55.820 almost. And I say this as I'm a big J.D. supporter, as I know you are. I think if he's our nominee in
00:53:02.160 2028, what we will end up getting from him if we're fortunate enough for us to become president
00:53:08.480 is it'll actually be much more conventional, but not in bad ways, but in good ways,
00:53:14.640 types of GOP economic policy. But just even when he had poised the rhetoric of pointing out
00:53:21.000 that some of these more populous things actually have some purchase and we should pay attention
00:53:25.760 to them uh you know he just he enrages some of the worst people in the party and it's fun to see
00:53:32.080 yeah you love to see it uh joe mcdermott says i was thrilled to hear about the h1b
00:53:38.080 fee proposal but after waiting on this since 2016 i'm not going to give the admin any credit until
00:53:43.840 it's actually implemented they'll give then i'll give them a ton of credit that's fair that's
00:53:48.480 entirely fair we've gotten a lot of announcements from the admin uh i'm more than happy to uh say
00:53:54.720 you know wait for results that's more than reasonable yeah but ultimately then you have
00:53:58.820 to give credit when that thing happens you can't just say okay well uh there's something else like
00:54:04.340 you know we we do you do ultimately have to give an attaboy to the people if they're scoring the
00:54:09.020 touchdown you can't just i understand waiting until the touchdown is scored but then you know
00:54:13.220 you got to be there nixon says deportations sucks now wait till the dims return yeah exactly which
00:54:21.100 is why you know victory is critical you really cannot let the left hold uh hold power it's it's
00:54:27.540 just not an option and and this is i think maybe the central theme of what we're getting at today
00:54:31.560 right which is i you know i could turn around and i mean again i am actually genuinely very positive
00:54:36.520 overall about the things that this administration has accomplished but i could turn around and do
00:54:40.900 a whole show about things that i'm not happy about but at the end of the day it's a binary choice
00:54:46.580 That binary has probably never been further apart in my mind than it is right now. And whatever frustrations voter and listener that you have, you should feel very comfortable, in my view, in walking into the ballot box and pulling that R lever and convincing your friends to do the same.
00:55:05.720 And that's the bottom line. And again, we can talk about all the, I mean, believe me, as a pro at this, my frustrations are probably higher than yours at times when you see something that you don't like. But at the end of the day, you know, you have a bottom line. And I think that bottom line is very clear to me.
00:55:24.440 Jacob Zendel says, why is Trump fighting a trade war against Canada more than China? Oh, well, that's easy because you can win the one against China or win the one against Canada and you can't win the one against China.
00:55:33.100 And I'm not sure that there's much of a difference between Canada and China at this point.
00:55:37.680 Yeah, well, or India, but yeah.
00:55:39.560 I mean, in true seriousness, I mean, I think this is a, it's a huge emerging issue that not very many people are talking about. But the degree, not just in demographic replacement, which in Canada dwarfs ours in the United States, but the actual levels of documented Chinese and Indian government foreign influence on what's going on in Canada right now are really disturbing.
00:56:00.700 and it's a it's a border security crisis for us it's a national security crisis for us
00:56:04.840 and uh is not getting enough attention yeah no seriously like people don't understand we're
00:56:10.140 going to need as much border security in the northern border as the southern border soon
00:56:14.100 yeah things are getting are going that direction uh cherry coat nixon says another big problem is
00:56:21.480 boomers seem unconcerned about h1bs and the mass third world migration and white collar jobs
00:56:26.400 don't they have grandkids uh yes but unfortunately as we've seen many times over it is often
00:56:32.420 difficult to get that generation to understand that things have shifted under them uh to be fair
00:56:37.660 to the boomers every generation has this problem uh you know in 10 years you two will wonder what
00:56:42.740 the kids are on about uh you know it will happen to you as well uh but it is just a real serious
00:56:48.580 generational issue and this is why i always say when you're having these conversations
00:56:52.060 with your grandparents or with your parents,
00:56:56.520 with people of these older generations.
00:56:58.660 Don't come at them in a hostile manner.
00:57:00.800 Come at them in a manner where you show
00:57:02.600 that you're sharing your values.
00:57:04.280 Let them know that the reason you care about these things
00:57:06.900 is because you care about the future of your kids,
00:57:09.600 of their grandkids, these things.
00:57:11.400 You want there to be an America
00:57:13.800 that you can hand to the next generation
00:57:15.640 in the same way they got to hand that to you.
00:57:19.520 Yes, there's lots of problems.
00:57:21.120 i'm more than willing to you know locate some of the issues with the boomers uh but ultimately you
00:57:26.040 have to recognize that you're not going to win by just going after the generation and saying
00:57:30.160 everything is their fault uh you have to you have to approach them in a way where they're going to
00:57:34.640 be able to recognize that you're talking about the same values and you want the same things that they
00:57:39.680 want yeah uh robbie winesfield says uh don't we reject democracy and want a king strong man if
00:57:48.120 we cannot abandon him as soon as he does something we don't like uh there is certainly a a level of
00:57:55.260 um you know being able to follow involved in uh politics uh you know leadership is great but
00:58:03.780 learning how to follow is also important and that's why you have to learn the difference
00:58:08.520 between small ball and things that are really genuinely worth pushing back against if you lose
00:58:14.620 your mind every single time you know donald trump says something you'll go insane right like
00:58:19.220 and the left learned this right like if you have the one of the reasons the left has driven itself
00:58:23.440 mad is because it's always chasing what donald trump has just said uh so you don't want to be
00:58:28.360 in that area however that doesn't mean there aren't lines at which you say okay this is a bad
00:58:32.860 idea we should not engage in it we should push back against this idea i i think that there's a
00:58:37.780 a narrow and correct road to walk there when it comes uh you know trust the plan but always chimp
00:58:44.020 you know these things are always always in balance yeah and um you know even with something like iran
00:58:49.780 you know i have intelligent friends who can make pro-iran intervention arguments i don't particularly
00:58:55.940 like subscribe to them but they can make them um you know i think the the thing is just to hold it
00:59:01.940 in context the biggest problem to me with iran is not that it will necessarily lead to the bad
00:59:06.420 policy outcome it's that we're spending a lot of political capital there yes we could be spending
00:59:10.500 on things that are more important but again you know i just like i'm i'm pragmatic about it right
00:59:15.380 so like i'm going to express my displeasure about certain things with that but it's not going to
00:59:20.100 cause me to ignore all this other good stuff that i really like that's going on it's it's one policy
00:59:25.540 among many and i'm going to reject people on either side of that issue
00:59:28.900 that are going to try to make it the witness task for whether i'm going to still support
00:59:32.260 donald trump or not icebird says great work oran and jeremy loved you on night owls i'm assuming
00:59:39.220 mean you were on nine dollars uh jeremy yes uh vtuber huh i don't know i don't know what you're
00:59:45.240 talking about yeah i've never heard of that i've never heard of it uh vtuber uh kirsch vershtal i
00:59:51.340 don't know what that is uh has been investigating hr uh covering their uh tracks and uh prepping
00:59:57.600 for woke to changing di to bridge could be a good talk yeah i mean they're they're definitely
01:00:03.140 we already saw that early on uh the reshuffling attempts to relabel dei i'm sure that that will
01:00:09.100 continue again that's why a lot of what the trump administration is doing takes time you have to
01:00:13.700 nail down all of these different ways to weasel out of it you have to trap these people uh make
01:00:18.500 sure that they can't you know escape uh when it comes to these regulations uh so i'm sure that
01:00:23.160 that is happening behind the scenes and that's you know the trump administration is going to
01:00:26.100 have to play whack-a-mole with a lot of that stuff just knock it down as soon as they see it forming
01:00:29.660 uh belgians again says admin uh has done much to re-campus kangaroo courts uh but still see
01:00:38.840 constant instances of men being destroyed solution men under siege over sa hysteria i mean i really
01:00:45.720 don't know the constant um state of uh these kind of uh different uh you know kangaroo courts on
01:00:53.340 college campuses when they go after men for you know misconduct or whatever uh we don't hear as
01:00:58.320 much about it as we used to. I'm assuming it's much better given the fact that we don't see it,
01:01:03.900 but I'm sure it still exists. I would really need to see more evidence of data like where we're at
01:01:09.840 when it comes to that type of attempt to enforce these quasi-legal proceedings on college campus.
01:01:16.140 Yeah. And universities are just another classic example of something where the administration is
01:01:19.860 continuing to do good work, hitting singles and doubles. We'd love them to be able to hit home
01:01:24.660 runs, but it's hard. Harvard is having to lay off people in significant numbers right now,
01:01:30.520 though, because the administration is continuing to prosecute and Harvard is not willing to make
01:01:35.860 a deal. And a lot of these guys are getting pressured. We've cut down. Again, I'd love for
01:01:40.520 us to cut down those foreign student numbers far lower, but we've had a record level decline
01:01:46.080 in foreign students coming in. This is going to ruin the business model of a lot of these
01:01:49.940 universities, which is great because we need fewer of them. We need fewer people going to
01:01:54.520 these colleges because the value is simply not there for, you know, all but maybe top 25, 30%
01:02:02.340 of the market. And, you know, but again, these things take time, but they're real wins and
01:02:08.940 they don't get that pushed enough. And we'd still like them to do more and get more out of them,
01:02:14.740 but but it's it's more accomplishments from the administration yeah academia delinda s in this
01:02:21.580 one here uh nixon says final thoughts hb1s aren't even on the left's radar and i think that's largely
01:02:27.100 true it's mainly an inter right-wing fight between the you know kind of tech bros and
01:02:31.960 chamber of commerce uh class and uh the nationalists uh matt sevo says there's no big wins
01:02:39.520 without mass deportations more trump co look man i don't know what to tell you uh i i agree that
01:02:45.200 there needs to be more done uh but i'm not going to sit here and ignore wins when they come through
01:02:49.520 uh i will continue to piss off everybody by you know encouraging the trump administration
01:02:54.400 to do more and think bigger and and uh you know push through a lot of this stuff uh but i'm also
01:03:00.560 sorry not going to like just jump ship and start you know abandoning trump uh i've supported the
01:03:05.240 in in every election it's been an option and i will continue to do so i'll support jd vance
01:03:09.920 in his elections i'm sorry i'm not like gonna jump on board with the left or something uh it's just
01:03:15.980 not gonna happen i'm not gonna support a third party those always lose like i i get it i hate
01:03:21.060 the republican party guys i hear you uh but ultimately if we're gonna win you know we got
01:03:25.980 to just skin the republican party and turn it into our own thing that's the only it's the only
01:03:29.880 option it's the only way forward uh let's see here uh underground uh friend says actually
01:03:35.980 immigrants are in net gain cato yes uh another you know speaking of the linda est um and belgian
01:03:43.460 says uh am australian with a dutch mother australia paralyzed by fear of criticizing indian
01:03:49.660 immigration numbers netherlands by fear of criticizing moroccan sat i mean australia is
01:03:54.480 terrible guys like you you think uh yeah you think anything's bad in america yeah the level
01:03:59.620 demoralization Australia is truly bad if you look at their domestic political situation well and I
01:04:05.320 think this is like our superpower in America that just gets overlooked which is as compared to
01:04:10.280 Australia Canada Europe we're willing to be disagreeable we've still got a large number of
01:04:15.260 people who are just willing to tell it like it is uh and some of them you know send super chats
01:04:21.200 to your show or on x or whatever but but like we're not we haven't just sort of rolled over and
01:04:28.840 died uh in the way that frankly i say it with no pleasure that a lot of the kind of mainstream of
01:04:35.200 these countries has we're still fighting and as long as we're still fighting we should still feel
01:04:39.360 like there's a lot of hope and belgian says just another thanks to both of you for inspiring
01:04:45.300 efforts this life can be hard so please keep messages like mine in mind when things feel
01:04:50.520 tough well thank you very much man i appreciate your support and as always just because we are
01:04:55.560 talking about reality just because we are realists and we are taking things seriously in that sense
01:05:01.800 does not mean it's time to give up the reason to look at power and understand the reality on the
01:05:07.700 ground is so you can be more effective the the purpose of accurate analysis is not to make people
01:05:13.420 give up the purpose of accurate analysis is to have people better understand what they're fighting
01:05:18.840 and the level which they have to fight it so you know never give up never surrender you know
01:05:23.800 Ultimately, we're rejecting the black bill here.
01:05:26.340 That doesn't mean that we're just going to blow smoke and ignore problems.
01:05:30.140 But we are providing accurate analysis to get solutions.
01:05:34.280 That's the whole point.
01:05:35.260 We're fighting for the future of country.
01:05:36.940 Nobody gets to quit.
