[00:18:14] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_02]: This is Point of View.

[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:20:10] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:20:48] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:20:53] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_03]: This is Point of View.

[00:22:03] [SPEAKER_03]: This is Point of View.

[00:22:26] [SPEAKER_03]: This is Point of View.

[00:23:07] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:24:34] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_04]: This is Point of View.

[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_00]: This is Point of View.

[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_00]: This is Point of View.

[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_00]: This is Point of View.

[00:26:35] [SPEAKER_00]: We do need more affordable housing at this point.

[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_00]: The better solution is more incentives for the free market to work in these situations and let the cities and towns zone the way they see fit because they are there geographically in the situation, they know what the economic situation is so they can at least sort of tailor their zoning

[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_00]: But this article in the Wall Street Journal starts out, that might sound honorable, but

[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_00]: the Vice President is angling for further federal intervention in local land use.

[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Reports of her plans, as PBS puts it, include $40 billion to encourage local governments

[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_00]: to remove the regulations that prevent additional construction.

[00:27:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Such a policy would needlessly interfere in the democratic process and assert federal

[00:27:31] [SPEAKER_00]: control shaping what your neighborhood looks like.

[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_00]: In California, they've already tried to nullify single-family home zoning.

[00:27:41] [SPEAKER_00]: That's where she comes from.

[00:27:44] [SPEAKER_00]: She comes from that kind of attitude.

[00:27:49] [SPEAKER_00]: The article did give the example of Austin, Texas, where there was a problem, but they

[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_00]: took care of it locally.

[00:27:58] [SPEAKER_00]: They took care of it with their own zoning laws and Austin has been able to build

[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_00]: enough housing to solve that problem, but they even have some excess now.

[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_00]: There are some big cities with real problems, but let the cities solve it themselves.

[00:28:13] [SPEAKER_00]: A federal zoning board is not the answer.

[00:28:17] [SPEAKER_02]: I was going to say, typically the cities do solve these themselves.

[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_02]: Most places you have zoning laws that prohibit multi-family structures next to

[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_02]: single-family structures and so forth.

[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_02]: In Houston, I believe they're much more libertarian in this regard.

[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_02]: They don't have those zoning laws.

[00:28:34] [SPEAKER_02]: Typically libertarians have wanted to get rid of zoning laws because they feel like

[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_02]: that's an impingement on their freedom.

[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm a big fan of zoning laws because if you want to move into a single-family

[00:28:49] [SPEAKER_02]: neighborhood, you don't necessarily want to have high rises.

[00:28:52] [SPEAKER_02]: To Penn's point, the government has built high rises before, dense high rises called

[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_02]: public housing.

[00:29:00] [SPEAKER_02]: They were blights on society and they had to tear, they've torn some of them down

[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_02]: because you ended up putting a lot of low-income people in an area where they

[00:29:11] [SPEAKER_02]: didn't necessarily have jobs and other things and they couldn't necessarily get

[00:29:14] [SPEAKER_02]: to other places.

[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_02]: Public housing has been a huge problem.

[00:29:18] [SPEAKER_02]: It's never worked very well.

[00:29:21] [SPEAKER_02]: I think to the sense of what I'm hearing Kamala wanting to do is she may want

[00:29:26] [SPEAKER_02]: put multifamily structures, hotels or apartment buildings or something next to

[00:29:33] [SPEAKER_02]: single-family houses or other things in the city and it just does not work very well.

[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_04]: James Berling was on on Tuesday and if you get his book, and I would recommend

[00:29:43] [SPEAKER_04]: it, it has a number of pictures and one of the pictures that I remember is

[00:29:47] [SPEAKER_04]: the tearing down of Cabrini Green which is of course the public housing,

[00:29:51] [SPEAKER_04]: Section 8 housing in Chicago.

[00:29:52] [SPEAKER_04]: Then he has one picture of the Bronx where they had to tear some of it down

[00:29:57] [SPEAKER_04]: and Pena and Meryl, I mean it looked like a picture out of a war zone.

[00:30:04] [SPEAKER_04]: I mean it's just unbelievable how ineffective it was and if you add

[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_04]: that concept of what we've been doing in the past to then Kamala Harris has

[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_04]: another phrase that Pena and I used to talk about quite a bit, sustainable

[00:30:21] [SPEAKER_04]: development. Remember that? Sounds so good, sustainable development but it also says

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_04]: we need to reduce the carbon footprint and we need to have the great reset.

[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_04]: I do talk about that in my great reset book because of course the World

[00:30:35] [SPEAKER_04]: Economic Forum thinks this is a good idea as well and if you want to have

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_04]: just block public housing out there like the Soviet Union then you need to

[00:30:45] [SPEAKER_04]: elect Kamala Harris. You might say well what did Donald Trump do about

[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_04]: that? Well he had a guy by the name of Ben Carson who was the Secretary of

[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_04]: Housing and Urban Development who wanted to instead have more free market

[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_04]: ideas, enterprise zones and those kinds of things. So you have a really stark

[00:31:02] [SPEAKER_04]: difference and you can again read this right now on the Democratic National

[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_04]: Platform. It's 96 pages and you can read it for yourself. We posted on

[00:31:11] [SPEAKER_04]: Election Central there because that is one thing that they're talking about.

[00:31:17] [SPEAKER_04]: If you buy into, and Mayor Matthews will come to you, you're the only guy I know

[00:31:21] [SPEAKER_04]: who's read the Green New Deal and lived to tell about it. And there's a lot in

[00:31:24] [SPEAKER_04]: there and a lot of it has nothing to do with environment. It has a lot to

[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_04]: do with housing and zoning and things like that. Social justice is what they call social justice

[00:31:31] [SPEAKER_02]: there because they want to make sure that people are paid union

[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_02]: wages, that they are able to get family leave, paid leave and

[00:31:38] [SPEAKER_02]: leave and other things that is racially mixed and so forth

[00:31:41] [SPEAKER_02]: as the instruction that is set up to be able to be

[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_02]: very green and efficient so that you minimize heat loss and the need for air

[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_02]: conditioning and so on. Fewer windows, more concrete. All kinds of things like that. It's just

[00:31:56] [SPEAKER_02]: once they do this, you don't want to live in those. The cost could easily be

[00:32:00] [SPEAKER_02]: three or four hundred thousand five hundred thousand dollars per small

[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_02]: apartment and then you can't charge that much

[00:32:07] [SPEAKER_02]: for people so you end up making these public housing and people

[00:32:10] [SPEAKER_02]: low-income people move in there and then you have the problem of the

[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_02]: concentration of low-income people which creates its own problem.

[00:32:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Well, yeah and you've got a government whose attitude toward law enforcement

[00:32:22] [SPEAKER_00]: is the less of it the better and then you start creating these

[00:32:26] [SPEAKER_00]: communities of low-income people maybe not working

[00:32:30] [SPEAKER_00]: and so you've got that's another risk of

[00:32:33] [SPEAKER_00]: having this high-density housing and then of course there's the idea that

[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_00]: it goes along with another one of their green agendas and that is

[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_00]: perhaps you don't even have to have transportation. That's right. More public

[00:32:45] [SPEAKER_00]: transportation, more walking, everything's closer together.

[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_00]: So some of these things are just going to have to be but

[00:32:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I think to the extent that the American people and corporations

[00:32:58] [SPEAKER_00]: and investors can build things that are

[00:33:01] [SPEAKER_00]: nice beautiful things that people want and

[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_00]: keep it controlled then that's a better way to go than having a

[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_00]: federal housing agency. I'll have your line you know we've sometimes

[00:33:15] [SPEAKER_04]: didn't like the zoning laws but if you don't like laws that came

[00:33:19] [SPEAKER_04]: from a duly elected zoning board that you

[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_04]: can have some recourse to your neighbors. I got a feeling that you're

[00:33:27] [SPEAKER_04]: not going to like it if an unelected bureaucrat who is

[00:33:30] [SPEAKER_04]: believing every part of the green new deal is making decisions about the

[00:33:34] [SPEAKER_04]: kind of zoning and buildings can be allowed in your

[00:33:37] [SPEAKER_04]: community. So I think that's a way to think about the stark difference between

[00:33:41] [SPEAKER_04]: the two. Penedextre has a commentary you can

[00:33:43] [SPEAKER_04]: hear right now we'll talk about that right after this.

[00:33:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Heard of sanctuary cities these are municipalities that refuse to cooperate

[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_00]: with the federal government in enforcing immigration law.

[00:34:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Thus providing a sanctuary or safe haven for illegal aliens helping them

[00:34:06] [SPEAKER_00]: to break U.S. law. Now a California coastal town has

[00:34:10] [SPEAKER_00]: declared itself a sanctuary city for parental rights.

[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Huntington Beach is a great surfing spot in Wallet Hub's poll of best places

[00:34:17] [SPEAKER_00]: to raise a family. It ranks number 10 the city's school

[00:34:20] [SPEAKER_00]: district is highly rated. Huntington Beach Mayor Gracie Vandermark

[00:34:24] [SPEAKER_00]: is hoping to keep it that way she has introduced an ordinance to

[00:34:27] [SPEAKER_00]: make Huntington Beach a parents right to know city. She wants to protect

[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_00]: parents rights to be informed when their child is going through a gender

[00:34:34] [SPEAKER_00]: transition. Mayor Vandermark told the Daily

[00:34:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Signal California is one of the most dangerous states to raise a child.

[00:34:40] [SPEAKER_00]: This summer Governor Gavin Newsom signed AB 1955

[00:34:44] [SPEAKER_00]: which prevents school districts from enforcing any policy that requires

[00:34:48] [SPEAKER_00]: schools to disclose information related to a

[00:34:51] [SPEAKER_00]: student's sexual orientation gender identity or gender expression

[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_00]: without the pupil's consent. AB 1955 requires schools to conceal

[00:34:59] [SPEAKER_00]: gender transitions from parents overriding school board policies that

[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_00]: mandate transparency. Some school boards have complied by

[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_00]: enacting policies forbidding transparency.

[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_00]: In Northern California the Chico Unified School Board's parental secrecy policy

[00:35:14] [SPEAKER_00]: requires schools to socially transition students upon their request

[00:35:18] [SPEAKER_00]: and states that school staff should not reveal a transgender student's

[00:35:22] [SPEAKER_00]: gender identity to parents. A lawsuit against this policy is pending at the

[00:35:26] [SPEAKER_00]: 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. State law currently violates parents

[00:35:30] [SPEAKER_00]: constitutional rights by giving perfect strangers discretion to

[00:35:34] [SPEAKER_00]: child's gender transition. Huntington Beach's mayor hopes that her

[00:35:38] [SPEAKER_00]: right to know ordinance will pave the way

[00:35:40] [SPEAKER_00]: for parents to sue the state to overturn AB 1955.

[00:35:44] [SPEAKER_00]: May God raise up courageous parents to oppose this arrogant godless

[00:35:48] [SPEAKER_00]: government. For Point of View, I'm Penedexter.

[00:35:55] [SPEAKER_03]: You're listening to Point of View, your listener supported

[00:35:59] [SPEAKER_04]: source for truth. Back for a few more minutes first of all let me wish

[00:36:02] [SPEAKER_04]: you a happy Labor Day weekend. As you might imagine Monday we will

[00:36:06] [SPEAKER_04]: play a tape. On Tuesday Liberty McArthur will be hosting the program. Wednesday

[00:36:11] [SPEAKER_04]: Penedexter will be hosting the program. We'll be doing a live broadcast from

[00:36:16] [SPEAKER_04]: California on Thursday and then Penn I know you will be

[00:36:20] [SPEAKER_04]: actually hosting the Friday weekend edition because we're going to be out

[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_04]: in California meeting some of our donors and looking forward to that

[00:36:26] [SPEAKER_04]: opportunity there as well. So I hope you'll each day go to the

[00:36:30] [SPEAKER_04]: website pointofview.net find some of the articles.

[00:36:33] [SPEAKER_04]: You can find Penedexter's commentary there right now

[00:36:36] [SPEAKER_04]: it's entitled California Parental Sanctuary

[00:36:39] [SPEAKER_04]: and also there's a place where you can sign up to get the viewpoints

[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_04]: commentaries. You'll receive mine Monday through Friday in your inbox.

[00:36:47] [SPEAKER_04]: If you will sign up today you'll receive Penedexter's commentary

[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_04]: tomorrow on Saturday but we hear about this idea of

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_04]: sanctuary cities but you're also providing us a sanctuary city for

[00:37:00] [SPEAKER_00]: parental rights. Tell us more. Sanctuary city for people that are

[00:37:05] [SPEAKER_00]: really trying to protect their rights.

[00:37:08] [SPEAKER_00]: And this one city it's not that far from where I

[00:37:11] [SPEAKER_00]: grew up on the California coast. Huntington Beach California

[00:37:16] [SPEAKER_00]: has actually well they want to protect their position as one of the best

[00:37:20] [SPEAKER_00]: places to live in the country. I think they're number 11

[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_00]: on that list that comes out of a wallet hub but the mayor there

[00:37:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Gracie Vandermark she wants to keep it that way and she has

[00:37:32] [SPEAKER_00]: introduced an ordinance to make Huntington Beach a parent's right to no city

[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_00]: and you may have heard about what's going on in California. They actually

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_00]: have a law that they that the governor governor Gavin

[00:37:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Newsom signed last summer AB 1955 and this law prevents school districts

[00:37:49] [SPEAKER_00]: from enforcing any policy that requires the schools

[00:37:53] [SPEAKER_00]: to disclose information about student sexual orientation about their

[00:37:59] [SPEAKER_00]: gender identity their gender expression all the things that are

[00:38:03] [SPEAKER_00]: being done to transition them from one to another.

[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_00]: None of that can it cannot be disclosed to the

[00:38:11] [SPEAKER_00]: students parents and so that's that's where California is

[00:38:16] [SPEAKER_00]: right now well this mayor in Huntington Beach doesn't

[00:38:19] [SPEAKER_00]: want her city involved in any of that so she's

[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_00]: she's declared this ordinance and she's trying to pass it

[00:38:27] [SPEAKER_00]: and some schools have actually complied with the California state law AB 1955

[00:38:33] [SPEAKER_00]: forbidding transparency so you've got here's another school district up in

[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_00]: northern California Chico Unified School District.

[00:38:41] [SPEAKER_00]: They have what's called a parental secrecy policy

[00:38:44] [SPEAKER_00]: requiring students to transition students if they ask for it

[00:38:48] [SPEAKER_00]: and they but not revealing anything about it

[00:38:52] [SPEAKER_00]: to the parents this is a nightmare for parents rights

[00:38:55] [SPEAKER_00]: it really truly is and Minnesota is another state that's a lot like

[00:39:00] [SPEAKER_00]: California Mike Walsh as governor implemented this

[00:39:05] [SPEAKER_00]: where they're welcoming kids that are struggling with their gender

[00:39:09] [SPEAKER_00]: but they're not welcoming the parents input on any of it

[00:39:13] [SPEAKER_00]: and so you know something that sometimes what starts in California

[00:39:18] [SPEAKER_00]: doesn't stay in California even Kamala Harris has claimed that

[00:39:22] [SPEAKER_00]: but this one I'm hoping what starts in Huntington Beach

[00:39:27] [SPEAKER_00]: and her right to know ordinance will actually pave the way for parents to

[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_00]: sue against that awful law in California

[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_00]: and to raise up parents who are courageous all over the country.

[00:39:39] [SPEAKER_04]: Again you think about governor Tim Walsh who says well we're going to

[00:39:43] [SPEAKER_04]: make it a sanctuary city or a sanctuary state as well for

[00:39:48] [SPEAKER_04]: individuals that want to go through trans surgery

[00:39:52] [SPEAKER_04]: and we if and if we even get some kind of legal demand from

[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_04]: parents from another state we will disobey that so that is a pretty

[00:40:03] [SPEAKER_04]: strong statement being made and I was thinking Dr. Meryl

[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Matthews you're talking about freedom you know freedom not to be

[00:40:10] [SPEAKER_04]: vaccinated for him not to have health insurance

[00:40:12] [SPEAKER_04]: freedom if I'm a young lady to be able to compete in sports only

[00:40:18] [SPEAKER_04]: against biological females another one is the freedom to actually

[00:40:23] [SPEAKER_04]: have parents know what is going to be done to their children

[00:40:27] [SPEAKER_04]: and there are some stories that we've talked about over the years where

[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_04]: sometimes a school will take a pregnant

[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_04]: teenager into an abortion clinic without telling the parents

[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_04]: and yet of course the parents have to deal with the emotional and physical

[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_04]: consequences of that now you have at least in Minnesota and other places

[00:40:47] [SPEAKER_04]: the so-called ability to take that child

[00:40:51] [SPEAKER_04]: and even give surgery and all sorts of other

[00:40:55] [SPEAKER_04]: hormonal treatments without the parental knowledge

[00:40:59] [SPEAKER_04]: perhaps of that and without the parents having to recourse to bring

[00:41:02] [SPEAKER_02]: the child back and you know when you make it

[00:41:04] [SPEAKER_02]: secret as Pena mentioned sometimes that encourages children just to go

[00:41:08] [SPEAKER_02]: ahead and do something just because they want to try to

[00:41:11] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't say they're not rebelling against their parents but just because

[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_02]: this is secret I get to do this and my parents don't know about it so

[00:41:19] [SPEAKER_02]: I think it might end up actually encouraging them but

[00:41:22] [SPEAKER_02]: the question I have is and maybe Pena you know this

[00:41:26] [SPEAKER_02]: if they if they sue do they sue since this is a state law

[00:41:30] [SPEAKER_02]: that the sanctuary the law coming from the state

[00:41:35] [SPEAKER_02]: challenging this would this go under state law or would it go into the

[00:41:39] [SPEAKER_02]: federal court because of what Biden is wanting to try to do

[00:41:44] [SPEAKER_00]: with with schools and public education I think what this mayor is trying to

[00:41:48] [SPEAKER_00]: encourage is suing against the state law

[00:41:50] [SPEAKER_00]: ab 1955 but there are lawsuits with regard to the Biden directive of

[00:41:56] [SPEAKER_00]: changing the definition of sex to gender identity which affects a lot

[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_00]: of these issues and so that's ongoing also and I

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_00]: think we're going to see I think that this next four years is going to be a

[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_00]: time when there's a lot done on the gender identity issue

[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's right it's come upon us and it's been

[00:42:17] [SPEAKER_00]: a bit of a shock I mean it's just such a negation of reality

[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_00]: and there's just so many trends that you don't have to be what you

[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_00]: were made and you can change it but it causes so many terrible problems

[00:42:32] [SPEAKER_00]: I think there will be lawsuits attorneys general will be doing federal lawsuits

[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_00]: against that change in title 9 and there'll be

[00:42:39] [SPEAKER_00]: probably some other things too but this one is particularly

[00:42:43] [SPEAKER_00]: the state law in California but I think in California if they were

[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_00]: successful in striking down that state law

[00:42:48] [SPEAKER_00]: I think that would say a lot to folks in other states who want to do

[00:42:53] [SPEAKER_04]: the same thing well I might just mention while I

[00:42:56] [SPEAKER_04]: was talking about abortion that I know you have Alan Unruh on

[00:43:00] [SPEAKER_04]: Wednesday and talking about abortion rights in South Dakota and some things

[00:43:03] [SPEAKER_04]: like that of course as I mentioned we have

[00:43:05] [SPEAKER_00]: it's been called the most pro-life state yes and yet they're trying to get

[00:43:09] [SPEAKER_00]: one of those laws there just like they're trying to get in

[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Florida right now where abortion you would just remove all abortion

[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_04]: restrictions it's incredible first of all I want to thank both of

[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_04]: you for the program today and Dr. Meryl Matthews I mentioned your one

[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_04]: on freedom again people can find that and it's a good article to remind

[00:43:27] [SPEAKER_04]: us that when people talk about freedom sometimes they have a different

[00:43:30] [SPEAKER_04]: definition sometimes they have it's 1984 you sometimes change the words

[00:43:35] [SPEAKER_04]: let me again mention then next week we'll be out in California I'm flying

[00:43:38] [SPEAKER_04]: into Sacramento on Tuesday so we'll have a chance I don't

[00:43:41] [SPEAKER_04]: know that we'll see Gavin Newsom or anybody like that but

[00:43:44] [SPEAKER_04]: we'll be doing a live broadcast from KYCC our good friends out there

[00:43:48] [SPEAKER_04]: in Stockton California on Thursday of course as I mentioned you have

[00:43:51] [SPEAKER_04]: Liberty on Tuesday Pena on Wednesday we'll be doing a

[00:43:55] [SPEAKER_04]: live broadcast on Thursday but I hope that you will take the time

[00:43:58] [SPEAKER_04]: certainly to enjoy this weekend this Labor Day weekend but

[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_04]: once again recognize that the viewpoints commentary today by

[00:44:06] [SPEAKER_04]: Penedextre the California parental sanctuary is there

[00:44:09] [SPEAKER_04]: my commentary today unemployment employable

[00:44:13] [SPEAKER_04]: it is a piece which reminds us that we not only have a lot of

[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_04]: individuals who are not working but many of them are unemployable and

[00:44:22] [SPEAKER_04]: time when we certainly have the greatest need

[00:44:25] [SPEAKER_04]: we have the greatest group the largest group of individuals baby boomers

[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_04]: each year more and more of them are retiring about three million

[00:44:33] [SPEAKER_04]: each year are retiring at a time when we need to replace those individuals

[00:44:38] [SPEAKER_04]: we have found that we don't have the workforce that we really need so

[00:44:42] [SPEAKER_04]: that is a challenge that either President Kamala Harris

[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_04]: or President Donald Trump are going to have to address but those

[00:44:50] [SPEAKER_04]: issues are available we have our election central we also have all sorts

[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_04]: of other great material there as well most importantly I want to thank Megan
