Radio Show Hour 2 – 11/15/2024

[00:00:13] Broadcasting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show.

[00:00:24] All right, back with you live, ladies and gentlemen, Sam Bushman, Dr. Scott Bradley, freedomsrisingstudents.com on your radio.

[00:00:29] This is the broadcast for November the 15th in the year of our Lord, 2024, promoting God, family, country, protecting life, liberty, and property using the supreme law of the land, the Constitution, the United States of America.

[00:00:39] That's who we are and what we do.

[00:00:41] If it's revolution, we reject it.

[00:00:42] If it's a Jesus revolution, we're in because we follow the Prince of Peace.

[00:00:47] The checks and balances are absolutely brilliant and one of the restorative solutions we have at our fingertips.

[00:00:52] And anytime people want to violate those checks and balances, I stand against them because I know for expediency they think they're right, but in the end it'll become our downfall, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:01:01] The only way back is the supreme law of the land that has a history of success.

[00:01:05] By the way, there's a big old battle going on now in the video world.

[00:01:09] I started last hour talking about I'm launching Liberty Roundtable Live video shorts.

[00:01:13] The first one at the top was Who is Sam Bushman, a commercial promoting who I am?

[00:01:18] But then Never Turn Your Back on the Almighty is the first video I put together.

[00:01:21] But anyway, the video battles are on like nobody's business.

[00:01:25] YouTube has kind of owned that space and been very hostile to us for quite some time, as you all know.

[00:01:30] But now Spotify takes on YouTube is the headline.

[00:01:34] Wow.

[00:01:35] Spotify is going after YouTube and their, quote, video podcast dominance with a new, quote, revenue program for creators.

[00:01:45] I guess they're going to share dollars with creators based on the number of video views.

[00:01:51] So if you want to go to Spotify and if you've got a lot of viewers, you'll be able to start making a lot of money soon as they try to take on YouTube's dominance.

[00:01:59] What do you think?

[00:02:00] Spotify taking on YouTube.

[00:02:01] I think that competition is great, Dr. Bradley, and I'd like to see more of it.

[00:02:05] Oh, man.

[00:02:07] I'd like to see YouTube get their comeuppance is what I'd like to see.

[00:02:11] Amen.

[00:02:11] Those guys were the establishment filter, if you will, the gate, the gatekeeper to all information.

[00:02:21] First Amendment was set aside because of YouTube.

[00:02:23] I mean, I would just love to see a successful run at trying to help them kind of see where their real value is.

[00:02:34] Well, time will tell and competition is good.

[00:02:36] I can tell you that right now.

[00:02:37] So we applaud Spotify for that.

[00:02:39] I hope Rumble and several others get into the game, too, because then the cost will go down and then the complications will go down.

[00:02:46] And then we'll find out who's for freedom and who's really against freedom more and more and more and more.

[00:02:50] That's why the new media is taking center stage and the mainstream press is melting down because people are realizing the truth.

[00:02:55] I've been telling you that way longer than everybody else.

[00:02:57] But I'm glad everybody else has jumped on the bandwagon.

[00:03:00] All these other hosts worked for big media and got paid a ton of money.

[00:03:03] I got those offers, turned them down.

[00:03:05] Now most of the talk show hosts that have had those offers and have been compromised by that are realizing what a sham it is.

[00:03:11] And they're leaving Tucker Carlson, Glenn Beck.

[00:03:14] I can just name, you know, people after people after people.

[00:03:17] And they're starting to realize and go on their own.

[00:03:19] And, man, now Joe Rogan and Glenn Beck and Judge Napolitano and Elon Musk and Donald Trump and everybody kind of building their own news capabilities and broadcast capability.

[00:03:30] Good for them. We need more of it rather than less.

[00:03:33] And I've been telling everybody that longer than anybody that I know in the public space.

[00:03:38] Me and Alex Jones are kind of the two that have been around kind of the longest doing so.

[00:03:41] Other people just weren't on that bandwagon for the longest time.

[00:03:45] So anyway, great for Spotify.

[00:03:47] Our prayers are with them.

[00:03:48] Ron Paul now emails me an interesting headline, Doctor, and I want to brief you on it and get your take here.

[00:03:55] What do you think?

[00:03:56] Ron Paul, CampaignForLiberty.org is the email subject.

[00:04:01] January will bring in a new Congress and a new White House administration.

[00:04:05] We have much to be optimistic about, but we always have to back this optimism with a lot of caution.

[00:04:15] Wow, Ron's right on that reality.

[00:04:17] Most people forgetting about the caution piece.

[00:04:19] Me and Ron Paul and you and others telling people to be cautious.

[00:04:22] I'm optimistic and I have some hopes too.

[00:04:25] But, man, we've got to be careful of the hopium.

[00:04:27] As you wisely pointed out last hour, Dr. Bradley, that word is great to highlight the point.

[00:04:32] You can't get too overzealous and just think the world's all solved and you especially can't go to sleep.

[00:04:36] But anyway, he says, for the past many, many years, and especially for the last four,

[00:04:42] you and I have had to fight battle after battle against the relentless assault on our most cherished liberties.

[00:04:51] Boy, is that right.

[00:04:53] From our, quote, right to free speech to our right to privacy from government snoops, going through our bank records, our emails,

[00:05:03] to our very right to what we will decide what we put on our bodies and into our bodies.

[00:05:09] We've had to play serious defense over the last four years.

[00:05:12] But next year, you and I can go on the offensive and begin to demand our liberty back.

[00:05:20] I'd like you to tell me what you think should be our top priorities by filling out this survey.

[00:05:27] Last thing I need, by the way, Ron Paul, no offense, is another survey, okay?

[00:05:32] Throughout his campaign, Donald Trump promised that he would, quote, drain the swamp.

[00:05:37] A phrase actually coined by Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign.

[00:05:45] No, it's 2012 campaign.

[00:05:48] That was a Ron Paul phrase.

[00:05:49] And with your help, we'll hold Donald Trump to it.

[00:05:53] I really like that.

[00:05:54] So if you want to know, Donald Trump is using Ron Paul's phrase from his presidential campaign.

[00:06:03] I find that interesting.

[00:06:04] I sure wish to give Ron Paul some credit.

[00:06:06] Anyway.

[00:06:06] Anyway, Vivek Ramaswamy, along with Elon Musk, will lead the effort to, quote, slash the federal workforce, regulations, and wasteful spending.

[00:06:19] And then they say that they already promised to reach out to Ron Paul to get help, and I hope that's really true.

[00:06:25] One of the first things I'm sure Dr. Paul will talk to them about is Senator Rand Paul's RAINS Act.

[00:06:33] We've got to promote the RAINS Act to shut down spending.

[00:06:37] Even Vivek understands it and explained on Tucker Carlson's show some of the details.

[00:06:44] Talked about the Supreme Court Chevron decision and how valuable that can be.

[00:06:48] Passing the RAINS Act would be a critical step in eliminating many unconstitutional government programs and agencies and rules, regulations, spending, et cetera, et cetera.

[00:07:01] Before we go on, what do you say about that, doctor?

[00:07:05] Well, I think he's speaking in general terms that all makes good sense.

[00:07:10] Maybe some of your listeners don't understand about the Chevron policy.

[00:07:15] And that basically, for decades, was that Congress would create a body, OSHA or FDA or BATFE.

[00:07:26] They'd create a body, and then they would leave the rulemaking, quote, unquote, because it really is lawmaking authority to that body that would create law over which they might lord the American people.

[00:07:40] So it's like the lazy man's way to not have to do the work and then not have to take responsibility for when it goes bad, but get credit when it goes good.

[00:07:47] Right.

[00:07:48] And so what happens is that we get these rogue and they're rogue because they exist unconstitutionally.

[00:07:54] You get all of these rogue bodies that are out there, and they create their own law, adjudicate their own law, and enforce their own law.

[00:08:04] And the Supreme Court decision says no.

[00:08:06] You know, and I'm boiling it down to the more pure essence.

[00:08:11] Article 1, Section 1 says Congress has all the legislative authority.

[00:08:16] But the Congress is, like you say, lazy man.

[00:08:19] They say, oh, we just don't have time to look at all of the aspects of this thing.

[00:08:24] And so they let these bureaucrats create law to be enforced upon Americans, and it becomes an onerous burden constantly.

[00:08:33] I mean, the king was nothing back in the 1770s compared to what these guys have done.

[00:08:38] So I would love to see an across-the-board application, any rule, regulation, law, whatever they want to call it, policy, blah, blah, blah,

[00:08:48] that's enforced as though it were law upon the Americans is done away with because it has no basis in the foundational principles of the government.

[00:08:59] Constitutionally, it can't exist.

[00:09:00] So I see and hope for a lot of these things.

[00:09:03] But you know what?

[00:09:05] It's so entrenched.

[00:09:06] I may be jaded.

[00:09:07] I'm tired.

[00:09:08] I'm sad.

[00:09:09] But I'm hopeful that some of these things can happen.

[00:09:14] And, you know, you talk about Ramaswamy and Musk's efficiency charge.

[00:09:20] We don't even have any idea what it's going to look like.

[00:09:22] I mean, are they going to have a—

[00:09:23] No, and I have a problem with doing that because if you're not very careful, you get this outside Garibut agency that doesn't have any accountability.

[00:09:29] And if you're not careful, it turns fascist, right?

[00:09:32] Well, it has that very distinct possibility.

[00:09:35] But you think of the most fundamental things.

[00:09:38] Are Vivek and Elon going to be taking a government salary?

[00:09:43] And if not, well, are they going to have a bureaucracy that's there?

[00:09:46] Are they going to have to have a large building that they're filling with people?

[00:09:49] Are they going to have a clerk-typist kind of staff and, you know, bureaucrats running around, blah, blah, blah?

[00:09:56] I have to assume not.

[00:09:57] I hope not.

[00:09:58] Or are they going to pay their own way?

[00:10:00] Are they going to say, no, you know what?

[00:10:02] This country's been good to us.

[00:10:03] I mean, yeah, we've made our way, but we want to give back something.

[00:10:07] I mean, I don't know how it's going to go.

[00:10:09] And so there's a lot of unknowns about this thing right now.

[00:10:12] You can't do $10 million a year for the next four years without blinking an eye and do it as you're saying themselves and prove their worth to the country and say, look, we don't want anything we're trying to give back.

[00:10:21] But throughout Donald Trump's campaign, he said he'd drain the swamp.

[00:10:25] Addressing the Reigns Act and passing that would be key.

[00:10:27] But Trump also promised he would get rid of a central bank digital currency.

[00:10:33] So let's hold him to it.

[00:10:35] But Ron Paul says, but before you do, hey, Trump also promised to abolish the Education Department.

[00:10:41] The Department of Education rules over our schools with an iron fist.

[00:10:44] Boy, howdy, is that true?

[00:10:46] Anyway, then they say that we've got a bill to abolish the Education Department.

[00:10:49] Thomas Massey.

[00:10:51] That's great.

[00:10:52] But if you agree, then, hey, put the Department of Education on the top of your list.

[00:10:56] Anyway, they go through all these items and say, if you agree, put that on your list, this on your list.

[00:11:00] But before you do, don't forget the Department of Homeland Security, Ron says.

[00:11:05] They've been pushing back their deadline to require this idea of barometric ID cards to board airlines.

[00:11:14] But it's going on.

[00:11:15] Right?

[00:11:16] They've got airports scanning your face right now.

[00:11:18] So while they're delaying it, they're implementing it.

[00:11:21] It's kind of a tactic to pretend that it's not happening, but it is.

[00:11:24] And now the TSA is demanding that, hey, you've got to have these special IDs to get on an airline now.

[00:11:30] They're doing it through the states.

[00:11:31] It's a sham.

[00:11:32] The fact is the government has no constitutional authority whatsoever.

[00:11:36] Right?

[00:11:38] To mandate the use of these barometric indicators to demand you do anything.

[00:11:43] But they're doing it.

[00:11:43] Right?

[00:11:44] Go ahead.

[00:11:44] All the biometric stuff is being implemented.

[00:11:46] Utah rolled over years ago about this national ID kind of thing.

[00:11:53] Look, think about the old movies that you've seen where the Nazis, the Gestapo, the Stasi, the KGB, whoever it is, is going through the train.

[00:12:04] Papers?

[00:12:04] Papers?

[00:12:05] Papers?

[00:12:06] Papers?

[00:12:06] Well, that's what's happening at every airport.

[00:12:11] You get your mug shot.

[00:12:13] You have to show your papers to get through.

[00:12:15] And the right to travel was well understood by the American Founding Fathers.

[00:12:20] If you go back to Blackstone, which was written 10 years before they got really close to having the revolution, Blackstone said that is the right of free men to travel freely, unimpinged.

[00:12:33] But the United States government has said, oh, we need a national identification.

[00:12:39] No, we don't.

[00:12:41] Free governments do not have national identifications and dossiers on people and blah, blah, blah.

[00:12:47] But this is being implemented.

[00:12:49] See, the problem is Ron Paul is on to about, I don't know how many is on your list, but let's say 15 number one issues that light my fuse.

[00:12:58] Yeah, and I want to tell you, not a single one of them was on Donald Trump's 10-point plan to restore the country either, just to be clear, to be honest.

[00:13:05] But I think Ron Paul's list is spot on.

[00:13:08] And he finishes by saying, hey, not only did Trump oppose a, quote, digital currency, but hey, President Trump-elect himself and many of the top people involved in the Trump campaign, including Elon Musk, RFKJR, Tulsi Gabbard, J.D. Vance, all of them have said Ron Paul's right.

[00:13:32] Auditing and ending the Fed is necessary.

[00:13:34] They're all basically complaining.

[00:13:36] They're all outspoken critics of the Federal Reserve.

[00:13:39] Well, that's the one I said was the top issue of all.

[00:13:41] I mean, if you can get rid of the Federal Reserve, you could actually have an honest economy once again.

[00:13:46] I mean, you know, all these issues start with the issue of honesty.

[00:13:50] But again, you know, as Dr. Bradley wisely warned last Friday, you know, I said, hey, I'm ready to go and abolish the Federal Reserve.

[00:13:56] And Dr. Bradley's like, hey, not so fast.

[00:13:59] Your ideas might be fine, Sam, but you can't go about it like you want to.

[00:14:02] It's going to take an act of Congress to abolish the Federal Reserve.

[00:14:05] You think John Thune's going to double down and abolish the Federal Reserve and get it out of committee and put it top dog?

[00:14:09] And you're going to see, you know, 400 members of the House or whatever you want to say, 318 members of the House or whatever, 200 even, saying, hey, we're going to abolish the Fed right now or at least end or out at the Fed.

[00:14:20] I just don't see this stuff really happening like we hope.

[00:14:24] And I hope it happens.

[00:14:25] Ron Paul is basically saying, hey, we need your funding to push for this stuff.

[00:14:29] Which issues are the top issues for you out of that list, doctor?

[00:14:34] Well, I think they're all number one.

[00:14:35] I agree with that.

[00:14:37] We are living, and I understand it's an outcome-based education quiz.

[00:14:41] And so I really am frustrated by these kind of things and the fact that Ron Paul is using it makes me a little bit chapped.

[00:14:50] I see, would you rather be hanged, dragged behind a car until dead, shot, or stabbed?

[00:14:58] What would you rather have, Sam?

[00:15:00] Well, none of the above, okay?

[00:15:03] And this is the opposite of that.

[00:15:05] You want all of the above to be done.

[00:15:07] We need to start doing this stuff.

[00:15:11] And, again, it's going to take...

[00:15:11] I agree 100%, but I would say if I had to pick one, I'd pick the Federal Reserve.

[00:15:15] And the reason that I would is because all the others have come downstream from that in terms of funding and money.

[00:15:20] If we chopped off their unlimited money, we would change the game with one swoop.

[00:15:24] That's the hardest to get rid of, but I think it would be the most impactful.

[00:15:28] Well, you look at what happened to Andy Jackson when he pulled that stunt.

[00:15:32] They immediately impeached him.

[00:15:35] I mean, that's the kind of depth.

[00:15:37] That was, you know...

[00:15:39] And hold on.

[00:15:39] Who impeached him?

[00:15:40] Congress?

[00:15:41] So the Congress impeached him, and the Senate tried to convict him.

[00:15:46] And so that's the very people that we need to be on board to make this happen, right?

[00:15:50] And that's the problem.

[00:15:51] You've got Thune, who's sitting there as an establishment crony for all the time he's been in the Senate.

[00:15:57] And my new nickname for him is Bethune.

[00:15:59] The Bethune won't let it happen.

[00:16:00] Yeah.

[00:16:02] Well, and let's look at some other things.

[00:16:05] I mean, I don't want to shift the gears too much from Ron Paul right now.

[00:16:08] But as I look at who Trump is, you know, suggesting or nominating, in a general broad-brush step,

[00:16:18] I would say Israel won the election.

[00:16:21] Ukraine will see the sun setting over their efforts based upon Trump's...

[00:16:28] But see, Trump has an agenda too, and the people of vast, maybe not vast majority,

[00:16:35] but of some very key players are going to make certain that Israel is going to get what they're asking for.

[00:16:42] And in fact, by the way, Israel's responding that they're going to maybe give Trump a gift, if you will.

[00:16:49] I don't know if that's exactly what they're calling it.

[00:16:51] But they're going to put a moratorium or slow down their invasion of Lebanon.

[00:16:58] You know, Israel needs to do something because they are spread so thin,

[00:17:02] and an invasion of Lebanon has been an abject failure there.

[00:17:05] And I think they're looking for a way to...

[00:17:07] Why do we want to invade anybody, doctor?

[00:17:09] Just redneck thinking here.

[00:17:10] We don't need to invade anybody.

[00:17:11] You know, that's because you're a normal human being that thinks that the Prince of Peace ought to run things, you know?

[00:17:19] That's exactly what I think.

[00:17:21] And it just can't be.

[00:17:23] It just can't be.

[00:17:25] It would be incredible.

[00:17:26] Can be, should be, ought to be.

[00:17:28] I'll tell you that right now.

[00:17:29] But your point is well taken, Dr. Bradley.

[00:17:32] But look, the government has no constitutional authority to do half the things on this list that Ron Paul's got.

[00:17:39] And how many of these are really, is Trump really doubling down serious about?

[00:17:43] I don't know, but they weren't on any of Trump's list.

[00:17:45] Now, he's made comments about some of them, and good on him.

[00:17:49] There's promises by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to bring Ron Paul into these discussions because they say he's right.

[00:17:56] I mean, those are good signs.

[00:17:57] And as you say, we can hope for those things.

[00:17:59] Let's not get all hopped up on hopium and just be, you know, because you'll be, you know, expect a drug-induced, what do you want to call it, backside to that, disappointment downer at the end of it.

[00:18:11] But understand that there is hope.

[00:18:14] And really, as I've mentioned to several people this week on the show, it all comes down to the way the people, if enough people push for something, it can likely happen, doctor.

[00:18:22] But if not enough people, you know, are involved, then it'll just continue to run off the rails just in a different way than the other guys.

[00:18:28] That's all.

[00:18:29] Well, you're absolutely correct.

[00:18:32] People need to engage.

[00:18:34] We, the people, have got to take responsibility for our governance.

[00:18:38] Now, traditionally, what's happened when the Republicans win, which they won big time, the vast majority of the electorate says,

[00:18:47] Oh, man, that's good.

[00:18:48] We can turn this back over to them.

[00:18:49] I'm going to go back and watch the Super Bowl or the World Series or whatever circus you're watching.

[00:18:57] And that's exactly how most Republicans respond.

[00:19:01] And right now, there's a lot of Republicans that, like I say, are consuming hopium.

[00:19:05] But they've got to stay engaged and participate in bringing these things about.

[00:19:11] And I could give you example after example of even family members, not my immediate family, but extended family members that are saying,

[00:19:19] Hey, we're on the right track.

[00:19:20] I had one the other day, literally.

[00:19:23] There's a big boxing match tonight, I guess, between Mike Tyson and Mike Tyson.

[00:19:28] And this young 27-year-old guy that says he's going to take that sucker out.

[00:19:32] You know, we'll see.

[00:19:32] Well, I don't know one way or the other about that thing.

[00:19:36] I think that it's going to be a.

[00:19:37] But this family member, an extended family member, says that's what matters to me now.

[00:19:43] We won the election.

[00:19:45] And I'm going to be front and center on that match.

[00:19:48] Got OnlyFans.

[00:19:49] Can check out the chicks on OnlyFans.

[00:19:51] Check out the boxing match.

[00:19:52] There's a football game tomorrow night.

[00:19:53] You know, that's what everybody's doing.

[00:19:55] Yeah.

[00:19:56] And that's the problem is that historically, that's how the Republican electorate has acted.

[00:20:03] And that's, I mean, the Republicans that are in office have proven themselves time after time.

[00:20:08] They're incapable of governance.

[00:20:10] I mean, it's kind of like, well, we want to be collegial at this thing.

[00:20:15] And we don't want to push this button and, you know, try and make an issue out of this.

[00:20:20] And pretty soon, everything vaporized or run through our fingers.

[00:20:24] And Stockton made a good point, as you said, last Tuesday night, a week ago, Tuesday,

[00:20:29] when we were talking, he says, you know what, they got a year.

[00:20:33] Trump will lose his Republican majorities in both the House and the Senate in two years

[00:20:38] if there isn't real progress made on real things that matter to real Americans.

[00:20:45] And he's got to act that way and make it happen.

[00:20:47] And I think Thune is the fifth column.

[00:20:50] And so is Mike Johnson.

[00:20:52] I'm sorry.

[00:20:53] Everybody says he's a great Christian.

[00:20:54] But he's there because the Israeli lobby wanted him there in the House.

[00:21:00] That's, I think, the sole and only reason he got that job without a whimper.

[00:21:06] And Thune pulls up, I mean, it's just so frustrating that the management says,

[00:21:13] oh, we're all on board.

[00:21:14] We're going to see if we can get these things to happen.

[00:21:17] And then they don't make them happen.

[00:21:19] It's like David, King David, when he put Uriah in the thick of the heat of the battle in the hottest spot

[00:21:25] and then pulled back his support and let him get killed.

[00:21:29] That is what I'm really worried about with the leadership that the Republicans are picking.

[00:21:35] And honestly, I mean, Susan Collins is not going to be in the middle of the Trump agenda.

[00:21:42] Neither is Murkowski.

[00:21:43] I mean, you look, if you start losing a few Republican, quote-unquote, senators, the majority vaporizes.

[00:21:52] They don't, they've got a razor-thin majority right now.

[00:21:56] And the same within the House.

[00:21:57] And it's got to be something that becomes principles-based, based upon sound foundation stuff.

[00:22:04] And if they don't do that, it'll be more of the same.

[00:22:07] I'm sorry.

[00:22:08] The hopium will drug the people for a period of time, and then two years from now they'll say,

[00:22:15] we're going to turn the turkeys out, you know?

[00:22:18] And let me ask you another question.

[00:22:19] How many of these people are being put up by Trump to appear hardcore, to appear getting it done,

[00:22:25] to appear on the right side, knowing full well that, hey, Thune and these thugs are in charge of these key positions,

[00:22:31] Mike Johnson, and knowing full well, because remember, Mike Johnson was fully endorsed by Donald Trump

[00:22:36] and 100% voted for him to be the Speaker of the House going forward.

[00:22:40] And so Donald can put forth all these guys knowing full well that they'll be rejected by the House and Senate,

[00:22:44] and then Trump will be like, well, it's not my fault.

[00:22:46] And then a more moderate person will come up, and pretty soon a lot of that bluster, a lot of that,

[00:22:51] you know, hey, man, Trump's getting it done.

[00:22:52] Ain't really happening.

[00:22:54] But it's not Trump's fault, of course.

[00:22:55] It's everybody undermining.

[00:22:56] It's like the border.

[00:22:57] You know, how much of the wall do we really build?

[00:22:59] No one can even answer that question for me.

[00:23:02] Well, how much of it was updated fencing that got damaged, or how much was really built brand new?

[00:23:08] How much was the wall according to what we were promised versus different versions and different materials being used

[00:23:13] to where it's not really the wall as we were told?

[00:23:15] Okay.

[00:23:16] We can't even answer the question of how much of the wall has been built, much less.

[00:23:19] And so how much of this is blustered by Donald, do you think, saying, hey, let's get all these hardcore guys in there

[00:23:24] to where everybody's happy or, you know, feels like they've been vindicated?

[00:23:27] But yet, in the end of the day, very few of those people will really get there.

[00:23:30] Maybe a few key.

[00:23:31] But if you take out, say, Matt Gaetz and take out RFKJR and take out Tulsi Gabbard

[00:23:37] and take out, you know, 10, 15 people that don't make it or whatever,

[00:23:40] and you replace them with more moderates, pretty soon the whole hardcore agenda we're hoping for is just gone.

[00:23:46] Puff of smoke.

[00:23:47] Done.

[00:23:47] Done.

[00:23:48] Do you think a lot of this is bluster and intentionally done knowing full well that they'll never pass?

[00:23:53] Yes.

[00:23:55] And I think it's time to take a break, but that's a sad, sad scenario.

[00:23:59] It's like the contract with America that Gingrich pushed through.

[00:24:04] I mean, it was a buffoon fact.

[00:24:16] And have it replaced that.

[00:24:18] But that's what they did.

[00:24:18] And especially not a John Thunery, which is coming.

[00:26:06] What we are seeing is a new kind of politics, a new political party in power.

[00:26:13] This is the first time where you see a president from the party as well as who's likely to have a majority in parliament if this trend continues.

[00:26:23] So it is a transformation in Sri Lanka where we are not seeing for the first time the Rajapaksas or the Ranil Vikramasinghas who were some of the leading politicians ruling the country in the past 30 years.

[00:30:13] Broadcasting live from atop the Rocky Mountains, the crossroads of the West, you are listening to the Liberty Roundtable Radio Talk Show.

[00:30:24] All right, back with you live, Dr. Scott Bradley with me at freedomsrisingsun.com.

[00:30:28] We're talking about Trump's agenda, and Thune may be a problem, but at first glance, you know what?

[00:30:34] It's all quiet on the home front, right?

[00:30:36] You don't have any rioters everywhere.

[00:30:37] You don't have people opposing.

[00:30:40] 45 seconds of Joe Biden literally sitting down with Donald.

[00:30:44] Hey, we're going to have the most peaceful transition ever.

[00:30:46] This is all good.

[00:30:48] Everything seems to be falling in line and everything else.

[00:30:50] Now, John Thune, incoming Senator Leader John Thune basically says, hey, recess appointments, very possible for Trump's cabinet nominees.

[00:31:02] So what you do is you just wait until they're on a recess, then you just push everybody through.

[00:31:06] And see, I don't like all these circumventing of power.

[00:31:10] I get that, you know what?

[00:31:11] You want to – but it's all on a loophole that these things happen.

[00:31:14] And when that happens, all you gear up for is more lawfare, hatred, anger, you betrayed us, we'll do that to you next time kind of stuff.

[00:31:23] And I don't think it bodes well.

[00:31:24] And this is what I'm talking about.

[00:31:27] Why do we got to do these recess appointments?

[00:31:29] If we've got a majority in the House and the Senate, why do we need to, you know, do these recess appointments and circumvent the system?

[00:31:36] And, okay, everything they get done is on loopholes.

[00:31:38] And then everything has the ability to be challenged or overturned or changed or what – I mean, it just – it never ends.

[00:31:46] And this is my point, doctor.

[00:31:47] We're not gaining ground this way.

[00:31:49] We're losing ground because every time we violate the checks and balances, we make the Constitution less and less relevant in the reality of today, which is the wrong direction to go.

[00:31:58] Well, I'll remind you of Article 2, Section 2, Clause 3, which says,

[00:32:06] The President shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session.

[00:32:18] Okay, so this is a constitutional approach to things, but it has been sorely abused in times past where somebody goes out of town for three days and we end up having a bunch of appointments made that that could not possibly be considered like a regular recess.

[00:32:39] Now, then you have counterpoints that the Senate tries to do by keeping a modicum of their activity so they're not really in recess over these long weekends and all this kind of stuff.

[00:32:51] Supreme Court has got involved in that kind of stuff.

[00:32:54] But, you know, you think about this.

[00:32:57] Well, recess appointments are constitutional and they're reasonable because the founding fathers understood that times there would be when, you know, they were out of town for an extended period of time, fine.

[00:33:09] We've got to keep business going.

[00:33:11] But you look at the calendar that the Senate saw.

[00:33:14] I mean, what are we going to do?

[00:33:15] Wait until, what, Easter?

[00:33:16] I don't know.

[00:33:16] I don't know when they're going to have a recess.

[00:33:18] See, this is the loophole that I'm talking about.

[00:33:19] Is it legitimate?

[00:33:20] Yes.

[00:33:20] For example, the President can also defend America if there's an instant need to deploy troops to protect the country.

[00:33:27] The President can do that too.

[00:33:28] Sure.

[00:33:29] But there's a limit to this stuff.

[00:33:31] And what we do is we drive a truck through it and we abuse it and we manipulate it.

[00:33:34] And if there's a single example where you say, hey, because Congress is gone, we need this to happen.

[00:33:39] The President can do that.

[00:33:40] And then there's a kind of an end to it at the end of the next term or whatever.

[00:33:44] But it's not designed just to ram all these people through that they know they can't get through otherwise.

[00:33:49] And then once they're there, they kind of have to stay there because they're entrenched.

[00:33:53] And, okay, this is the – I agree with your point.

[00:33:56] It is constitutional.

[00:33:56] But I'm telling you it's being abused.

[00:33:59] And we're not going to do well by doing that.

[00:34:01] All it means is the next president will do the same thing and back and forth and back and forth.

[00:34:04] And then, hey, pretty soon it's like, hey, let's just change the law to where it won't be the end of the first term.

[00:34:09] It will be permanent because the president should have that authority too.

[00:34:11] And all we're going to do is continue to exploit the system is what I'm telling you.

[00:34:16] Well, you're absolutely right.

[00:34:18] And every president is abusing it and everyone is doing it.

[00:34:21] And it becomes kind of a modus operandi that how they beat the system.

[00:34:26] Now, the president really does have – and, you know, you look at Article 2, Section 2, Clause 2 – have power with advice and consent of the Senate.

[00:34:39] Okay?

[00:34:40] And these things what they're going to appoint and all this along with treaties and all that kind of stuff.

[00:34:45] Okay?

[00:34:45] So advise and consent.

[00:34:48] Okay?

[00:34:49] And there's a feeling that basically the president does need to have his team there.

[00:34:58] And why would you say, well, we're going to just appoint Nancy Pelosi to be his chief of staff or whatever?

[00:35:05] Okay?

[00:35:06] You know, the president does need to have that authority and power.

[00:35:09] And the Senate needs to look at them.

[00:35:11] Well, they have to use this idea.

[00:35:14] Well, look, if this guy is, you know, the next tyrant or has been a – I mean, maybe it's Jeffrey Epstein.

[00:35:22] I'll take a – everybody can agree on this.

[00:35:25] If Trump tried to appoint Jeffrey Epstein in there if he was still alive, then the Senate ought to say, are you kidding me?

[00:35:34] We can't do this.

[00:35:35] Okay?

[00:35:35] Okay?

[00:35:35] But then there's this, okay, let's – okay, it's his team.

[00:35:40] We need to support his view of that team.

[00:35:43] So there's this wisdom that settles in there.

[00:35:46] The Senate are supposed to be a more seasoned group of people.

[00:35:51] You know, they're not run by the – well, okay, this was the original intent.

[00:35:54] They were not run by the democracy of the voice of the people as much as bringing in the state's wisdom,

[00:36:03] which is a legislative body that appointed the Senate.

[00:36:06] So we have representatives appointing representatives in that case.

[00:36:10] The state had a seat at the table, but they also were able to appoint – they were supposed to appoint –

[00:36:15] more seasoned, diplomatic, and, you know, wise individuals.

[00:36:21] So all of this kind of stuff we've lost.

[00:36:23] We're appointing bozos everywhere, and we're running amok, and it's just really sad that the Senate doesn't have a little bit of,

[00:36:31] shall I say, pride in their office in saying, you know what, we are the Senate.

[00:36:37] We really do need to take the high ground on this, whatever, you know.

[00:36:42] Yeah.

[00:36:42] So it's a battle that's epic, and I get – a lot of people are telling me,

[00:36:45] Sam, you know, we've just got to do these things.

[00:36:48] I get your concern, but we don't have time anymore.

[00:36:50] The country's going to be ruined if we don't get action now, and we got to – and so, you know what?

[00:36:54] I mean, just set aside your concerns.

[00:36:56] I get them all, but look – and so here's the next question.

[00:37:00] Will Donald Trump and team have retribution against Sam Bushman for speaking out about these things?

[00:37:07] I'm not here to say the president doesn't have authority.

[00:37:09] I'm here to say if we're not careful, he's abusing that authority.

[00:37:12] And if we're not careful, we need to realize what was the intent of the founders.

[00:37:15] That's what we've got to go back and look at when we look at these things.

[00:37:18] Yes, the president has the ability during these recess, but was it meant to watch for a recess,

[00:37:22] delay in wait, and then exploit that hole and hammer through a ton of people,

[00:37:26] or was it meant for kind of an emergency situation?

[00:37:28] What was the intent?

[00:37:30] And let's use it with the intent, not use it for the exploitation.

[00:37:33] Well, if I speak out about this then at some point, will Donald be pointing the turret at me?

[00:37:39] Well, I can't imagine that he's going to take the action.

[00:37:43] I'm an opposition guy, right?

[00:37:44] Well, but the point of the matter is, though, that your point before that point was that let's use wisdom

[00:37:52] and go back to that original intent kind of thing.

[00:37:55] And this idea of trying to make a man an offender for a word, which Isaiah talked about that,

[00:38:02] and good is evil and evil is good and light is darkness and all that kind of good stuff.

[00:38:08] These people need to recognize that they're supposed to be trusted representatives

[00:38:13] to do the right thing at the right time rather than a political agenda.

[00:38:17] For the right reasons.

[00:38:18] Yeah.

[00:38:18] Yeah.

[00:38:19] And the political agenda has taken ascendancy over all these other things.

[00:38:24] I mean, the Bravo Sierra of a lot of these people want to rewrite the Constitution.

[00:38:31] Biden has talked about packing the Senate.

[00:38:34] I mean, not the Senate, the Supreme Court.

[00:38:37] And there's talk about revising how the Supreme Court would be appointed.

[00:38:41] Of course, it would take an amendment because they hold life.

[00:38:47] Hold life.

[00:38:47] They hold office for good behavior during the time of good behavior, which generally...

[00:38:53] I want to see a few of those suckers impeached.

[00:38:56] Well, but that hasn't happened very often.

[00:38:59] We have not wisely used impeachment.

[00:39:01] I mean, these are all tools that we're given.

[00:39:04] We ought to.

[00:39:05] We ought to have, you know, dozens of impeachments over the next four years.

[00:39:10] And, you know, there ought to be removals from office.

[00:39:14] Impeachments and conviction.

[00:39:15] Impeachment is just bringing charges.

[00:39:17] Conviction needs to happen in the Senate.

[00:39:19] And then we remove them from office.

[00:39:21] And then they become liable to criminal, you know, court cases.

[00:39:28] So there's tools there that we can correct some of this stuff.

[00:39:31] We've already seen that they won't even bring charges against Biden, much less impeachment.

[00:39:35] They won't even bring the charges until after he's out and in the clear.

[00:39:38] Well, and then there's Mayorkas and his complete fiasco on the border.

[00:39:43] I mean, there's so many...

[00:39:44] We haven't even really talked about the border, what a mess that is, and the deportations that ought to start happening immediately.

[00:39:51] Yeah.

[00:39:51] And how much of that agenda do you think he's going to accomplish?

[00:39:55] It's going to be a tough sell.

[00:39:56] No.

[00:39:56] I mean, we've got people that are saying no.

[00:39:59] We've got our future voters in place now.

[00:40:01] We can't be offending them, you know.

[00:40:04] Now, I'm for getting rid of the criminals and the bad guys.

[00:40:06] I'm not for getting rid of everybody.

[00:40:08] I do believe that, you know, you've got this stratus of situations.

[00:40:13] You know, if you were born here, but maybe you shouldn't be a citizen, but that's all you know in your life, and you know more English than you do Spanish maybe,

[00:40:20] and you've worked here and paid taxes and don't have a criminal record, that guy's not the same as the guy that just crossed the border that raped a girl or something, right?

[00:40:27] So we need to separate that.

[00:40:29] The problem is the second you talk about an intelligent plan like that, then you get accused of amnesty.

[00:40:33] Go ahead and skip the break.

[00:40:36] Then you get accused of amnesty, see?

[00:40:38] And so it's hard to even have a discussion about this intelligently, right?

[00:40:41] But I'm for getting rid of, I mean, I don't know how many, a million, two million literal criminals that need to go back to their countries of origin immediately.

[00:40:48] I'm all for it.

[00:40:50] Well, there's an old saying in legislation, and it's the hard cases make bad law.

[00:40:57] Amen.

[00:40:58] There's a few things that are absolutely, unequivocally, totally, and completely above board.

[00:41:03] There could be no other interpretation, okay?

[00:41:06] And those things ought to be happening immediately.

[00:41:09] Now, you bring up some cases, they say, well, maybe there's some hard cases.

[00:41:14] But every case needs to be examined based upon what the law is.

[00:41:19] And the fact of the matter is that we do not have borders right now.

[00:41:26] I mean, they have been taken down.

[00:41:28] Welcome, welcome, everybody.

[00:41:30] We only have borders if you're legitimately trying to become a citizen.

[00:41:33] Then there's big blockades and problems.

[00:41:35] I know people that have been trying to become American citizens for decades doing it the right way, and they simply can't get it done.

[00:41:40] I know people similarly.

[00:41:42] They're doing that.

[00:41:43] They want to do everything above board and legally, and it's a sad scenario.

[00:41:47] But we have people that crashed the party.

[00:41:51] They violated the law.

[00:41:52] And there's got to be an examination of that under the law.

[00:41:59] Now, there may be some cases where, if you will, mercy rules over justice.

[00:42:06] But the fact of the matter is there is clearly defined law.

[00:42:11] Article 2, Section 8 gave Congress that authority and responsibility.

[00:42:15] They delegated that there.

[00:42:17] And what happened is this has been a free-for-all.

[00:42:21] I mean, D-Day happens every few weeks nowadays.

[00:42:26] The invasion happens.

[00:42:27] So how big do you believe the deportation will really be?

[00:42:29] In the end of the day, you know, they say we've got, what, 11 million illegals here now.

[00:42:34] I think it's more like 30 million.

[00:42:36] Yeah, it's 30 at least.

[00:42:38] I'll be shocked if we get rid of more than 4 or 5 million at most.

[00:42:43] At most.

[00:42:44] But I hope I'm wrong.

[00:42:46] So the problem is that we've been wrong.

[00:42:51] They violate the law, and that's why other people become scofflaws.

[00:42:55] They say the law doesn't mean anything.

[00:42:58] They create this Bravo Sierra law.

[00:43:01] They never enforce it or they over-enforce it.

[00:43:04] They use lawfare.

[00:43:05] They use the law in the wrong way.

[00:43:08] And you can see why lawyers and judges and those kinds of people are being more and more into disrepute.

[00:43:16] Because that's the way.

[00:43:17] I mean, you know, you think about used car dealers.

[00:43:19] They used to be pretty much bottom of the barrel.

[00:43:21] Well, the politicians and the lawyers are now, you know.

[00:43:25] And so there's got to be an understanding that, you know, this Constitution is unassailable in terms of it must not be violated.

[00:43:36] And it gave that authority to the Congress to set up these laws for immigration.

[00:43:41] And I suspect, though, that you're going to find whether they call it, you know, some kind of an amnesty thing or not.

[00:43:51] I don't know if it will actually be called that.

[00:43:53] But I can see it moving that way very easily.

[00:43:56] And I can see the demographics of our society being changed to the point that people are going to say, does it really matter anymore?

[00:44:04] I mean, you look at birthright citizenship, whether it's Ramaswamy or Kamala Harris.

[00:44:12] These people are not constitutionally qualified, according to the original intent of the American Founding Fathers, to be president or vice president.

[00:44:21] And nobody ever said diddly squat about that in any of the discussions.

[00:44:25] We did.

[00:44:25] But you're right.

[00:44:26] Well, we're nobody.

[00:44:27] Very few.

[00:44:27] Very few do it.

[00:44:29] So I don't mean to be critical of Donald Trump.

[00:44:32] I pray for him.

[00:44:33] I'm glad that he won over Kamala Harris.

[00:44:35] I hope for his constitutional agenda to be carried out in areas which I believe he might be too aggressive.

[00:44:42] I hope it doesn't backfire and he loses too much political capital.

[00:44:46] I hope that we can do the things that we're talking about in a constitutional, moral way.

[00:44:50] In other words, I believe the Constitution can be the blueprint to restore the republic.

[00:44:54] A lot of people believe we've got to go outside the Constitution to bring the country back.

[00:44:57] I think the opposite needs to happen.

[00:44:59] We need to stay within the confines of the Constitution as the moral way back.

[00:45:03] Anything you do outside of the Constitution will just be mocked and mirrored by the other side,

[00:45:07] and they'll be unconstitutional to do their damage as well.

[00:45:10] We've got to use the checks and balances.

[00:45:11] We've got to use the system as designed.

[00:45:14] And the American people, here's the last point that I'm going to make.

[00:45:16] The American people have got to get engaged in this.

[00:45:18] People say, Sam, the American people won't get engaged.

[00:45:21] So that's why we've got to take this executive action or we've got to do this or that.

[00:45:25] And my response is, look, the country was designed for the American people to be involved.

[00:45:29] And if they're not going to be involved, they're going to get what they deserve, which is the loss of liberty.

[00:45:34] You cannot have liberty and be disengaged.

[00:45:37] And you say, well, Sam, we can't get the American people involved.

[00:45:40] We don't have time.

[00:45:41] I know you feel that way.

[00:45:42] I get that.

[00:45:43] But I also get that anything you do that circumvents the law or that undermines the will of the people in the process of the founders will backfire, will not go well, will exploit the system and bring us to a new low at some point.

[00:45:57] And so whether we have time or not, it's time to get the American people engaged.

[00:46:01] And if the people will not get engaged, then you will not have a constitutional republic, doctor.

[00:46:06] It's that simple.

[00:46:07] And then those people have got to turn to God or it's a worthless effort.

[00:46:12] Here's what Washington said in his farewell address.

[00:46:16] Resist with care the spirit of innovation upon its principles, speaking of the Constitution.

[00:46:21] However specious the pretexts, one method of assault may be to effect in the forms of the Constitution alterations which will impair the energy of the system and thus undermine what cannot be directly overthrown.

[00:46:38] So we've got to recognize that, oh, the expediency of the moment.

[00:46:44] We've got to do this.

[00:46:45] What you're saying is he just said what I said in a much more appropriate way.

[00:46:50] It's a very brief, succinct, eloquent way of saying it.

[00:46:53] You said it.

[00:46:55] Absolutely.

[00:46:55] But the Americans need to understand, if you think military tribunals are a good solution to get rid of some bad guys like Hillary Clinton or whatever.

[00:47:04] You're crazy.

[00:47:05] Well, you're sowing the seeds of the destruction of the republic if you follow that path.

[00:47:11] And there's a lot of people that believe we're on that path and it's being carried out and has been for the last four years.

[00:47:17] I reject it.

[00:47:18] They are absolutely saying that that's the way business is being done.

[00:47:22] And if it is, we're in deep trouble.

[00:47:25] We're in very deep trouble.

[00:47:28] So anyway, I just – there's a process.

[00:47:33] It's been clearly enunciated, the limits and bounds of government.

[00:47:38] And we've got to restore that.

[00:47:40] But if we don't have an informed electorate, we're toast.

[00:47:44] We're just toast.

[00:47:45] And the school systems, I harp on them a lot because they absolutely have been complicit and they have been at the very basis of the destruction of the republic.

[00:47:56] And like I say, the high priests of the education system that are behind the scenes now because they're all dead, but that's the philosophy that's being carried forth in the humanist manifesto that is the de facto lesson manual for the United States government and all school systems that are run by governments in the United States, whether it's in your state or in your general government.

[00:48:21] I mean, we've got a lot of deep problems and it's going to take an awakened people that it's going to make the good things popular again and unpopular the things that are bad.

[00:48:31] And we're just – we're on a bad trajectory if we think we can go back to sleep and watch the boxing match tonight over keeping track of where we're going with John Thune and Mike Johnson and Donald Trump.

[00:48:46] I mean, you know, I put three guys in the same – because they're the two legislative body and the executive.

[00:48:53] And what they're doing is going to be – have long-term, long-range effects on your grandchildren.

[00:49:00] No question.

[00:49:03] So that's why we need to get it done, ladies and gentlemen.

[00:49:05] And I've got a little bit of good news for you in some ways.

[00:49:07] I find that interesting news, to say the least, as well.

[00:49:10] Well, Western Journal, Jack Davis with the article, headline says this, winning bigly – using a term Donald loved to say bigly – winning bigly, major companies are reportedly running back to X following Trump's election victory.

[00:49:31] So now all the folks that jettisoned X, advertising-wise, are starting to come back as they see the tea leaves and decide they've got to back X now.

[00:49:40] They're all coming back.

[00:49:42] On one hand, you can say that's good news because it means a bunch of money for Elon Musk, and it means X is going to be alive and well and growing.

[00:49:49] To me, though, it's bad news.

[00:49:50] What they ought to do, what Elon Musk should do is tell those clowns to go away.

[00:49:54] We don't want your money.

[00:49:54] And what X should do, since he's got plenty of money and he's basically received so much money from the American people for so long on all of his subsidized projects that made him rich, I think what he should do is he should come back and he should promote the new media, take it to center stage.

[00:50:07] Just give Liberty Roundtable, Liberty News Radio, Loving Liberty Radio Networks, all of us new media guys, just give us a bunch of free advertising and say at least you supported me.

[00:50:15] I'm going to basically, you know, since Sam, you promoted me and protected me and defended X and Twitter and Elon Musk for the last number of years while everybody else abandoned me, I'm going to pay you back and give you some promo and grow.

[00:50:28] And what you do is you shrink the size of the old guard, the old media, the corporate, you know, DEI driven groups, and you would promote us and help us take more of the center stage if he did that.

[00:50:41] But he won't. He'll take the money and all the old guards are going to come back and eventually through dollars they'll have manipulative control of Twitter.

[00:50:48] I pray it doesn't happen. Predict it will as these people come back. Doctor, your thoughts?

[00:50:54] You know, he could do that. He may think he's doing that with his new government efficiency kind of thing and he's promoting free speech.

[00:51:03] But he could do something like that and it would be very beneficial.

[00:51:09] But just I chew my tongue a little bit on this for this reason, Sam.

[00:51:13] I know that you've been down the road and you've been offered fame, fortune and all that kind of good stuff.

[00:51:19] A lot of people sell themselves for that mess of pottage.

[00:51:22] And if it becomes a purchased by, you know, here's some large S for you to get a leg up, sooner or later there's usually someone in the wings that are saying it's time for a little payback.

[00:51:37] And so, you know, I like your independence.

[00:51:41] And I know you do, too.

[00:51:43] And, you know, and it's nice.

[00:51:45] But, you know, you say, well, money is, you know, like leaven that makes the bread rise and all this.

[00:51:49] And he doesn't have to give me any money.

[00:51:50] All he's got to do is say, Sam, you gave me free coverage.

[00:51:53] I'm going to give you free coverage back.

[00:51:54] Sure.

[00:51:55] And then nobody controls anybody.

[00:51:57] That's right.

[00:51:58] And, of course.

[00:51:59] And that's why I'm just saying he could do it by the will of his own kindness.

[00:52:01] There's no quid pro quo.

[00:52:03] There's no behind the scenes.

[00:52:04] There's no dollars.

[00:52:05] I would love that because I think that would be the right thing to do rather than reward the people that basically tried to shut you down.

[00:52:11] Right.

[00:52:11] Well, you do that.

[00:52:13] I mean, you wouldn't shut people down.

[00:52:15] I took my statement a little late on yours.

[00:52:18] But you would try and give back.

[00:52:20] I know that.

[00:52:21] Absolutely.

[00:52:21] I would.

[00:52:22] So the thing is, these free will offerings, that's what makes America great.

[00:52:27] That's why we don't need government largesse to run everything.

[00:52:32] Churches should, they should look to whom they serve and say, we're going to help take care of the poor and the needy, the sick and the afflicted, the hungry, the cold, the naked, the widows, the fatherless, all that kind of stuff.

[00:52:45] And quit saying, we're going to turn it over to government largesse who will in turn make this another worship service at the civil religion where you go, you know, fill out the correct form in the right agency, the HHS or whatever.

[00:53:02] And you get housing and you get food and you get medical care and you get education.

[00:53:08] And I mean, that's where we go.

[00:53:10] We currently worship the God of that largesse.

[00:53:14] And so we have a civil religion.

[00:53:17] And so, you know, I mean, but look at YouTube, though, Sam.

[00:53:20] I mean, going back a little bit on this, we all thought I fell into this trap that YouTube was a great instrument for, you know, sending out the truth.

[00:53:31] And I found that was not the case.

[00:53:34] Well, we thought it was, but they, you know, controlled.

[00:53:37] Yeah, they shut it down.

[00:53:37] And that's why I build my own organization, build my own ability.

[00:53:41] And then I say, hey, if I can use YouTube to further my cause, great.

[00:53:44] But if they chop me off, I'll never depend on them.

[00:53:46] And so some people say, Sam, you could have been 10 times.

[00:53:48] You could have grown way big if you jumped on crypto.

[00:53:52] You know, had you jumped on YouTube, you'd be a big star now.

[00:53:56] Maybe true.

[00:53:57] But then when they chop off my revenue, how am I going to pay my employees?

[00:54:01] See?

[00:54:01] So I don't depend on those clowns because I don't trust them.

[00:54:04] And that's why maybe I remain small, but I've been in it longer than almost anybody.

[00:54:08] So something I'm doing is working.

[00:54:10] And you're seeing all the big boys starting to follow my pattern now because they realize he who owns the media makes the rules.

[00:54:17] And the good news is the new media is indeed taking center stage.

[00:54:20] And we've got to continue to further that.

[00:54:22] And I'm asking Elon Musk to partner with us by his own free will to make sure that happens.

[00:54:27] Good work, everybody.

[00:54:27] Thanks for being alongside for the ride.

[00:54:29] Thank you, Dr. Scott Bradley.
