The Ron Edwards American Experience-240916

Hi, this is Melanie Colette. Enjoy the show, prepare for launching three two one kind away. We go see. M see see. See. Ladies and gentlemen, It's the Ron Edwards American Experienced talk show where our unalienable rights are celebrated and now your radio refreshment, Ron Edwards. Hello and welcome back to the Ron Edwards American Experience. I am Melanie collect here guests hosting. For Ron today. I'm so sorry to disappoint, but we do have quite a bit to talk about today. If you've been following. The news, you already know that we are living in some truly unbelievable times. Yesterday we saw yet another assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the. Second in just two months. It's ridiculous. This is the kind of stuff we'd expect to see in some dystopian political thriller, not in our precious United States of America. So what we have so far. On the second attempt, Ryan Wesley Ruth, fifty eight year old, was identified as a suspect who allegedly aimed an AK forty seven assault rifle at President Trump while he was on a golf course at Trump International at West Palm Beach. Reports are saying Ruth had a GoPro mount on the fence, apparently planning to film this grotesque act. On a pause for a second here, folks, and just talk about how this man was not just trying to murder the former president. He was looking to make a spectacle out of it, probably to broadcast this violent act as if it was some sort of sick trophy. It's hard to even wrap our mind around this kind of mentality. And you know, the media and some. Of the left are going to tell you that this is just another lone wolf incident. But let's be real. How many times are we going to hear this excuse? How many times are we going to hear the phrase it it's a lone wolf until we wake up and realize that there's a growing trend of violence directed against conservatives and particularly President Donald Trump. The left, while paying lip service to condemning violence, doesn't seem to care much about tamping down this kind of rhetoric that leads to these acts. I want to think about this. It's the second attempt on Trump's life in two months, two attempts, the last one in July. The rally in Pennsylvania where shots were. Fired at him. And now we have a man armed with an AK forty seven who sneaks onto the golf course to kill the former president of the United States. What kind of message is descending to the American people and what kind of message is descending to the rest of the world. Ryan west Ruth is quite a character when you take a look at him. With little we know about him thus far. He's a man with a long, sordid history, a man who's been described by his own. Neighbors as a little cuckoo. He himself published a book last year rambling on about how Iran should assassinate Trump and called Trump a fool and a buffoon for the January sixth riots. Here's the kicker. This is a guy who claims to have voted for Trump in twenty sixteen, but later decided that he made a mistake, so he goes from being a Trump supporter to advocating for his death. It's pretty extreme stuff and pretty scary. This guy has also been seen as a pro Trump Ukraine. Seen at a pro Trump at a pro Ukraine rally in Kiev back in twenty twenty two, holding signs up condemning Russia and calling for an end to that corruption. So he's clearly someone who's super politically active, someone who's engaged, but engaged in all the wrong ways. Now he's facing some serious charges of possessing a firearm by a convicted felon, because he is a convicted felon already, uh with he The firearm had an obliterated serial number, which means he probably got it in the dark market somewhere. Who knows what else we'll find out through the investigation. President Biden did come out and give what, in my opinion as a tacit rebuke, saying there's no place for political violence. Well, of course there isn't. That's not exactly, you know, a strong rebuke of this, this this attack on President Trump. What are we going to do about it? That's the question. Are we going to increase his protection through the Secret Service? President Biden is saying that the Secret Service needs more help, and you know what, he's probably right about that, But the Secret Service can't do it alone. Our leaders on both sides of the aisle have to step up, stand up and condemn this in a unified, strong voice. And it's more than about protecting Donald Trump. It's about protecting our democratic republic itself. Also, want to talk about the media for just one second. The media is already starting to spend this in their typical fashion. MSNBC, for example, is asking if the Trump campaign will call for a toning down to the rhetoric, when really they're the ones who are doing the most when it comes to their rhetoric. They're pointing the onus on the president when he is the victim here. I think in. Liberal voice they would call this victim shaming. Yet they're calling on Trump and his supporters to tone it down. Seems a little ridiculous to me. How about we ask the radical left to tone down their rhetoric. How about we hold accountable those who have made Trump the ultimate ultimate villain and this endless political theater that we have going on. Look at all the fact that the quote unquote fact checking that they did on President Trump during. The debate, for example. So in my opinion, it's the rhetoric from the left calling Trump a fascist, a dictator. And a murderer, lying lying about. The context in which he said there would be a blood bath in which if he didn't get elected, which he was referring to the auto industry, not a literal, violent blood bath. When you vilify someone to this extent and then you make him out to be the devil incarnate, they are going to be unhinged individuals who feel justified in taking a law into their own hands. And this is what we're seeing. This is not an isolated incident, and it's not something that we can brush under the rug anymore. And I hope people are paying attention. And I've got to ask where the call for accountability from our leaders on the left is. Who on the left is talk is leading the political outcry when political violence is aimed at conservatives. Again, saying that there's no place for violence doesn't really get the job done. Imagine if the roles were reversed, if this were Joe Biden or god forbid, precious Kamala Harris that were on the golf course and someone had taken a shot at her, I think we'd be hearing endless calls for investigations, for reforms, for new laws, probably impeachment proceedings against anyone who could possibly be blamed. And yet when it comes to Trump, we're not hearing a word. It's almost a collective shrug from the mainstream media not to mention low key or not so low key suggestions that he is somehow responsible for this, or that these assassinations attempts have been made up is abject buffoonery as usual from the left. And this brings me to another point on Trump's security in and of itself. The former president is still a candidate, He's still in the limelight. He's very much a target and has active, active threats against his life and I'm sure the Secret Service knows about this as well. Aware of this, his security should be on par with any sitting president and I don't care if he's not currently in office. He's clearly a target and now he's had two assassination attempts assassination attempts in two months. We can't afford to be complacent when it comes to this. So where do we go from here? We need we need to what we need to do to ensure. That this country doesn't go down this further dangerous path. We need all leaders who will stand up and speak out against this insanity, including the media, and we need the media to hold everyone accountable. That's what we need to That's what we need to do. Don't go anywhere, because after the break we're going to be diving deep into the potential Trump versus Harris match up with a very special guest, Christian Briggs. He's the CEO of Hard Asset Management Group. We're going to talk about their economic policies and commalist chances of winning in November. We'll be right back. Stay tuned.

And you know what, I'm going to have to book you again on. My show How Money Works with Melanie Collett. I think it would be a great conversation. Shame shameless plug for the as well. Hey listen, I will be available anytime you asked. I love to do it. I love it, I love it. So very much. Now, is there anything in the intro that I didn't include that you'd like the audience to know about. No, I think that's great. I think that you know we're we're one of the oartest poleskillers and precious medows and were coins in the world, and we sell directly to the public. And that's pretty much it. My background is physics. I study physics, quantum and quantitative derivative financial modeling. Nice, so you're like smart, smart, I get it. Sometime sometime I've gotten a not that good. Hey, I also studied physics smart Like that's like when I wasn't busy being a financial rock star, I was just dabbling in some physics. I love it. I love it. So I wanted to ask you know, what's been in in the you've been in the forefront of asset management and economic analysis. What are some of the biggest changes that you've observed in the financial markets over say the past year or so. Well, we've got to we've got an underlying recession in the bottom half of America, so from earners of seventy five, eighty five, even one hundred thousand dollars and down there in a recession. The inflation really kicked in hard, their wages didn't keep up, and the stock market kept going up, which was kind of a joke, but it make my point, you know what I'm saying. Think about that. That's been one of the word ist the last twelve eighteen months. We've had an inflation kick in the bottom half of America has now got less to spend than they did three years ago per capita, and the stock market kept going up. And that was because the bottom half took the hit and the top half enjoyed the fruits of the Biden administration's overstimulation of the economy and printing of. Money, which is like precisely what the Biden administration usually accuses the right of and it's just so insane. And we had a recession a couple quarters ago, and it was just like ignored, like we. Had two we had two. Presecutive negative GDP and which is the definition of a recession. And they were like, Eh, it's not really recession. I'm like, but it was, though, that's what happened. Well, it's a good point. The inflation. You almost had to see this coming. And if they said that, they were kind of taken back by it. You know, listen, yellow out of the PhD from Yale in economics, Howell's right there behind her. If you're telling me that seven eight nine trillion dollars an additional printing stimulus into the economy wasn't going to be inflationary, And when they did say it was inflationary, it was transitory means it was just like here today, gone tomorrow. You're either naive or you're blatantly stupid, or maybe a third one. You lied. No, I think it's. Probably lie because I'll tell you I used to teach economics on a high school level, and it's literally you know what. I used to. Fact check their economic policy a high school economics textbook. Like clearly inflationary, no way around it, no way. Around it, no way around it. In fact, when we were running models, when they started to build all of these legislative bills to put into infrastructure, the Omnibus, the Inflation Reduction Act, we said, holy tal on top of the deficit spending, the top line revenues of the United States government and these additional spending packages, it was almost eleven trillion dollars or four years was put into the economy and you would. You would literally have to be Helen tell the Stevie Wonder to not see it coming. That's exactly that's exactly right. So now we have these two people who are running for president. Right, we have President Donald Trump. People tell me I'm not allowed to call him that. I'm like he was a pre like whatever, he was a president to his presidency, former President Donald Trump. To make some people happy, probably not anyone who listening to the Royan Edwards Show. Though we have former. President Donald Trump and we have Vice President Harris, who have well, we don't really know a lot about Harris's economic policy other than like these like weird things that she keeps throwing out. She's like throwing stuff against the wall and seeing with sticks and what people are going to like. And then we know what Trump's policies are like, and there's. A lot of buzz around that. And I'm sure people have been asking you about their economic policies from both sides. Do you have an overall kind of general opinion about what you've seen so. Far on policy for the two camps? Certainly, Yeah, yeah, oh. You've asked the right question. I've got I've got empirical data for you. Ooh, let's talk about the data. Let's do it. Let's do it so real quick. We're going to go to statistics. Statistics are the bases of truth, and that means math doesn't lie people do. So let's go to the math. Because when you look at when Trump took office, we had a fifty two percent of America did not participate in tax revenue. In other words, whatever they did to continue to live, which was pretty much on intilaments, whether at the federal level, the state level, or the local level, in whole or in part, whatever it was that they received on these entitlement programs, they did not pay taxes and nothing went back in the system. And a lot of those could be illegals, a lot of them could be disability. But at the end of the day, it wasn't social security people, because you take tax does social security. It was it was individuals either gaming the system or rightly so, needing dependency on the United States or state governments. Fast forward, Trump becomes president, that fifty two percent goes to forty seven percent, one of the largest percentage reductions in the history of the United States. He lifted the African American he lifted it the Latino Hispanic individuals and families out of poverty, out of welfare, or out of low income, and put them back into a mid level to high income because they started paying taxes. He lowered the participation to forty seven percent, or the position of non tax revenue individuals. That was the largest increase and decrease in history. Right now, it's like, no, that's that means they're making. More money, right and you know what there is there is value in a person that brings home the income and not get a handout. There's value in self worth. Now, let's fast forward to Biden. He takes office, they're at forty seven percent. The latest numbers that we're tracking is because he increased entitlements and the ease of use to get those and create an inflation which created a higher level dependency for people because they couldn't pay their bills, they couldn't eat, they couldn't make rent, they couldn't pay their mortgages, they couldn't buy food. He's now got a back up the sixty two percent, the highest in history. That's communism. That's called dependency, and that's what Biden has done. So the policies that Harris wants to continue is what further into dependence. Here's how free college, free healthcare, free childcare, pre universal basic income. If it's free, how do you pay for it? And where's the value? So she could increase dependency in this country to eighty percent if, in theory, all of her programs, all the money to be spent, which will which would basically put us in hyper inflation, was to be enacted by within four years, we'd have people working literally less than they've ever worked, or not working at all, and we could see as high as seventy five to eighty percent of America paying no taxes. That's how we're going to default. The difference between Trump is I'll get it to where you can work, make a substantial amount of wealth, just follow the policies. The Biden Harris administration believes independency of communism. Oh, they definitely do. They definitely do. I was just sitting here thinking, you're definitely, you're clearly just defining communism. You're talking Cuba, Venezuela and these kinds of economies and Venezuela. You know, I think Venezuela is probably the most recent and kind of starkest example of that because they were so wealthy because of their oil, and communism just came in and just messed that country up so terribly. And it's just people are not paying attention. No they're not, but there are Well I'll say you this here. It goes back from the other statistic and this is kind of blind some some of the. Skews we have left below the break. I just want to tell you. Okay, but go ahead, okay, So eight of America currently are thereabouts the paycheck to paycheck. One of the things that Harris is appealing to of these people saying, are you down on your luck? Are you hurting? I know this inflation, We're gonna we're gonna change things. Well, you created the problem, but that's another story. So now you're trying to solve the problem that you're created by saying we're gonna give you free stuff that will lower your cost of living. In theory, she's right in the first few years, but once the people have to pay for that to pay for the other people who don't, those costs are always passed down the food chain. Absolutely, absolutely, So we're talking to Christian Briggs. He is the CEO of.

Hello, line Ron Edwards on today's Pace from your Words Notebook, brought to you by Constitutional Grounds Coffee. Well, first, wolves will never eat carcasses. You will never see or hear about a wolf performing in a circus. Unlike some other animals, wolf will never mate with its mother or sisters. A wolf typically mates with one wolf for life, and the female does the same in the event of the spouse's death. The living wolf mate mourns for no less than three months in the morning, can last up to an entire year. The wolf is called the righteous son because it is the only animal that honors their parents. When they reach old age and can't keep up with the pack for hunting, the older parents remain in the den while the younger wolves hunt for them and bring them food. As humans, we have a lot to learn from wolves. My fellow humans, we must do better. I'm Ron Edwards Jomulai weekdays Monday through Friday. To find out where, go to The Ron Edwards dot Com.

He's the CEO of Heart Asset Management Group and the host of Heart Asset Money Show. You should probably go to Ara subscribe like right now, welcome back to the show, Christian. You know, we have heard a lot about this capital gains tax proposal since she's you know, Harris's backtracked on her proposal to basically do what was she going to do? Money price address price gouging by really doing price controls, which we all know doesn't work. Again, the high school economics notebook will tell. You that the price controls don't work. But she's kind of she seems to be sticking to. The capitol gains tax proposal. Have you heard a bit about this and what do you think? So in twenty seventeen, going back to the originalation and where she's coming from, trum Trump, then President Trump had wanted to entice companies like Dell, Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft to repatriate profits that we're sitting mostly in Ireland at eleven percent tax. Right, they don't bring that cash back home, it's just sitting in cash that they do. It's I think it's a forty or forty four percent tax on that money. And all these companies are like whoa hold on a second, so as it means they tried to get three trillion dollars back into the country. He proposed a one time unrealized capital gains tax of up to twenty five percent. Now that became on foreign assets only, primarily real estate, bonds, equities private or public, and cash kind of lump in there with all those other three. So the companies decided, hey, that's a good deal. We want to bring the money home, so they did. Supreme Court basically made a decision because somebody who was part of that trio of companies, it was actually an individual, but he had money like that in foreign places sued. The case was ultimately decided on June twentieth of this year, where the Supreme Court cited that the tax is constitutional, that an unrealized capital gains tax can be enacted, and so that is the law of the land. The White House and its current status has determined based on what they're telling the public and through Harris's own fax policy, is that that is the law of the land and that's something they can do. So they plan on actually taxing people on unref capital gains next year if she's elected president, which is unbelievable that Supreme Court even allowed it to push and unbelievable that they interpreted in that manner. That's what's crazy. I can't even imagine how the Supreme Court could have done that, but they did it. So if she's elected, she plans on taxing. And by the way, there's no floor to the level they can tax. It's not one hundred million, twenty million, it could be fifty cents. The original case is called the More case. That's scary. That that is really scary. And what are the potential impacts do you think on the middle class on a policy like that. It's devastating if you are in a level of what it would be forced to pay this tax, whether it's five million or five hundred million, whatever level they set initially, they'll always go down later to continue to bring in revenues on assets that haven't been garnered a legitimate in my opinion, a legitimate gain. Paper gains don't count. It's all about what you with a true net realization. So the consequences on the middle class is that all those costs that these individuals will have to pay. I mean, look at commercial operations. If you're somebody's got fifty million dollars in real estate with a thirty million dollar paper gain, which is equity, and all of a sudden they come knocking on your door. You're going to pay twenty five percent of whatever that gain is on paper. If you've got housing that you've had for fifty years, multifamily, if you've got equity that you've had for thirty years, theoretically you could and she'll do it. Make no mistake. If she's allocted president, he will enact this tax. Absolutely. Yeah. Bernie Sanders Elizbeth Warren have for years and in the last six months pushing the envelope to get a well tax. This is a definition of a wealth tax, not an income tax, not a real capital gains tax. It's a true form of hardcore socialist well pax blended with communism. Because she wants to make this an annual tax of twenty five percent realize gains and unrealized games. You can look this up. That's her own words. Oh gosh, that's frightening. That's absolutely frightening. And you know, I really wanted to be able to trust the electorate. I do, I do, I do in my heart and soul. But Biden got elected in twenty twenty, so there's that, So I just, I just I can't now when we're looking at the I'm thinking about her policies where she said fifty thousand dollars for small busines this is and twenty five thousand for people to start small businesses that's great. Twenty five thousand dollars to help people buy homes all. Very inflation inflationary. And I'm trying to figure out how she's planning to manage our national debt with these kinds of strategies, how that is possible? And she really does think that managing the national debt by spending it on social programs and infrastructure somehow won't be inflationary and will somehow help the economy. What say you. Social programs? Okay, let's go back one thing. I'm going to go back to tell you exactly the answer you're looking for, which no one's gonna like this answer. And August fifteenth to seventy one, Nixon took us off the gold standard, which was the backing of our currency. For every dollar made, we had an ounce of gold, un deposit redeemable by any American citizen. Fast forward, thirty days later, after he took us off the gold standard, the dollar dropped thirty percent. He started the inflationary period because we had to overprint money to garner back to thirty percent into the economy. He created the inflation that Jimmy Carter ultimately was defeated for by Reagan. Now today, when the original dollars were not backed by gold, for every dollar that Nixon put into the economy and debt, we got a one dollar stimulation out of it that lasted up to twenty four months. Fast forward, if she does her policies, and in theory she did everything she talked about, within eight years, she would have spent seventy two trillion dollars. Now let's be realized, that's not going to happen. That's not going to happen. But the seven to eleven trillion she could spend in the first four years would create hyperinflation. But here's a fairy part. It now takes twelve dollars of debt spending or deficit spending to create the same one dollar in stimulation, and it lasts for less than twelve months, which means you're basically throwing twelve dollars out the window for six to twelve months worth of at best, holding the line economy. It doesn't really create a lot of stimulus. It'll destroy the middle class because when the taxes have to go up, the tax rates don't affect the top ten percent nearly to the level of the bottom half. Even if they're not paying paxes, costs go up based on inflationary pressures, so they're paying more for gas, for house, whether it's buying or renting. Car insurance, home insurance, health insurance. These are the things that they can't afford that have gone up exponentially. I was reading the other day and I'm thinking many of your listeners ty degree car insurance, home insurance, health insurance were up a minimum of fifty percent in the last three years. That's normal, and in predicultar it's going to go up a bit more too. It's not done. No, it's not done. And glad you said that, because just what look at what's happening to Florida, California and other states. Some states are literally losing one hundred percent of insurance coverage or carriers. So many states are down to just one and they're holding on by a thread with that one insurance company. By giving them the allow ones to increase policy premiums by triple digits. I live in the communist state of New Jersey, and we're having that issue right now with property and casually across the board, not not just cars, but housing, home insurance and things like that. State Farm, who you know, everybody knows, very popular insurance company pulled out in New Jersey. They're gone, and this is you know, and there are very few options for people that had State Farm that want to pick up some P and C insurance to insure. I don't know, little things like their house, you can hardly get it. I tried, and I'm in the business. I'm an independent broker. I couldn't help my friends find someone to replace their P and say, it's insane. I don't even know what they're going to do. I guess, you know, when there's a hole in the market, somebody else will probably come in. But right now it's a mess. Well it's funny because when you look to look at the holes in the insurance industry and you look at all the costs are on the premiums. The problem we have is it's a mega problem. The problem is that that the insurance companies that would come into a new market or a market they may have been in previously, but they decided to reorganize. Is that the insurance requirements that the state puts on the State Commission for Insurance is so high for reserve accounts that the money they've got to put in for reserve to be able to go against any claims, yeah, so high. And the assurance companies and litigation are getting destroyed good, better and different, doesn't matter what you like them or not, to the point where they can't afford to make money. So it is a communist theme to go into something like you know, New Jersey, Illinois, New York, California. This is a socialist, communist state agendas. So the insurance companies are like, why bother, We're just going to lose money at the end of the day anyway, so so let's not do it. It's it's it's such a bizarre thing that these legislators do where and and and administrators, quite frankly, the governors and things like that, and are are are you know, are the House and the Senate that they do because they're not business people and they look at things through these they almost approach it in a way where companies are not supposed to make money and they don't understand it. The reason why they entertain the level of risk that they have and the things like that is because they're in it to make money. It's not a charity. It's not That. Is not the way it works. I hope you'll be able to hang with me over the next segment. We're approaching our next break, but I really do want to ask you about how their economic factors might influence who will win or lose on November fifth. I think that is a giant thing that we want to examine. From what I hear, your preliminary data suggests that Harris will win by five points. That is very alarming to me. So I love what you're absolutely. Absolutely we'll be right back. You are listening to the Ron Edwards American Experience. I am your guest host for today. Melanie Collette will be right back.

Welcome back to the Ron Edwards American Experience. I am Ron Edward's guest host. Melanie Collette, and we are speaking with our guests today, Christian Briggs, who is the CEO of Heart Asset Management Group and hosts the part Asset Money Show. And we've been talking about Trump versus Harris when it comes to economic policy. And before the break I mentioned that there are some polls that say that Harris could potentially beat Trump by five points. Now, I want to couch this and say that one thing that you'll find when you're in a political game is not that you don't believe polls at all, but you have to be very analytical when it comes to polls, and polls are kind of like social media, like it's a snapshot in time, right right, And you can't base someone's entire life on what you see on social media that picture or that post on social media, and polls were very much the same way. They involve context. You have to know, well, what people did they poll, what kind of people did they pull, how many people did they pull? All of these things are really important. But that said, the potential for Kamala to beat the Donalds by. Five points is just absolutely frightening. And at this point I think anything's possible, and Christian, I really want to know your thoughts on that and what role perhaps the economic policy might play and who wins or loses here. Okay, we bring up some really good key factors in how we try to determine outcomes, So you have they theory is obviously the understanding of what it is you're trying to predict in an either high probability or conclusive manner. Certainly in this case, we're trying to create a conclusive or high probability. We don't think that Kamala Harris would ever win in a fair, no corruption, legitimate election hands down. We know that Biden through his many different organized community activists. We're able to obviously usurp the technity of the election by using a mail in ballots. I heard one state had like three hundred thousand of the same name, same show security number staffs for him. Okay, so we know this to be true. Okay, he cheated. He's not the duly elected president, not legitimately. So what happens now, Well, they also cheated in twenty two there's an evidence of that on the the midterms, So why would they do it differently now? So you can't take the idea that it's going to be one hundred percent legit, because we already know there's been between twenty and thirty million illegals that between the last four years and then the past four or five years prior, that they've signed up to become registered Democratic voters. This is a fact. Social Security Administration has acknowledged that over thirty million people new people have received benefits. And these aren't people that have retired that were American citizens. They came of age and had their opportunity to enjoy some of the fruits of their labor through Social Security participation. So when you start to look at the evidence in the mask, which the evidence is clearly illegals have signed up, they have sought asylum. There is a loophole based on executive order that Biden signed almost immediately when coming into office that allowed the federal agencies, all of them, to help sign up people for Democratic voter registration, illegals and or people that have already been here that may have come over the border at some point in time in the past to join the forest, as they call it. And then the free stuff. Let's talk about what Harris is offering now. If you take a family of four today making eighty to one hundred thousand a year, unless they have some kind of a supplement or a very good health benefit package at their current deployment, they're probably a month for a family of four to have healthcare. Now, she's advocating Medicare for all, which would add about three to five trillion dollars by year two, year three to the annual spending of the United States government. That's pure deficit spending. We will never recoup that in revenues and they don't exist. So if you're starting now to live a more quick mass equation, when you offer free to somebody who's paying upwards of ten twelve, fifteen thousand a year, and that is a significant amount of money that they would save for the word free which is healthcare, which is a big deal, and that's a huge deal. Then you have free child care, free tuition at university and colleges. All of a sudden, you're starting to get the ear of a family saying, wow, that's a lot of stuff that we don't have to pay, that somebody else will pay for us, that we can say that we're currently paying. That does resonate with a certain percentage of Americans at this term. No, that makes perfect sense to me, and most I would say, the vast. Majority joqu public. And this is not a disc to the electorate. But many people are busy taking care of their families and trying to keep them safe. They don't have time necessarily to study economic policy and the negative effects that it is going to have on them. Fortunately, Fortunately, I think that some people are just looking at the experience that they are having in their wallets from you know, the time that Biden Harris. I love the fact that they rebranded it Biden Harris like that. I just like, I enjoy that so much. It's so helpful. The Biden Harrison administration versus you know, the Trump administration. So you know, I think that people are comparing it to hopefully in understanding that you know, their money went a lot further under the Trump administration than it has gone for the. Last four years. But it's really everything that you said is quite frightening to me and also quite true. Listen, I live in a pretty red county where our county clerk who does the balloting is that the other is very very good. But it's still in the state of New Jersey. It's still in the state of New Jersey. And I can tell you that a person who like my stepfather still gets a ballot. Not only has he been in the Upper Room for at least five years, he has not lived at that residence for at least ten to fifteen years, still gets a ballot. Explain to me why. And that's because of the laws of I mean, the states like the state of New Jersey, and not wanting to do the right thing when it comes to these ballots and cleaning up the roles, and the fact that in Congress Democrats are fighting putting what I think are when it's illegal for illegals to vote. Why would you be against making sure that the roles are cleaned up and this sentiment that people of color can't get ID when we have ID for like everything. I'm a person of color. I've had IDs since ID was available to me at age eighteen. I know many, many, many people of color. Perhaps Commala should meet some that have IDs and it should not be a problem. But it's it's absolute ridiculousness for sure, and and the you know, the policies that you brought up probably will influence that behavior. Is there any way to fight it in your opinion, Yeah, there's. A lot of ways to fight it. The problem is, though there is a legal loophole for allowing some some types of illegals, which is the majority, based on how they're they're classified once they come here. Now, to clean things up, we've got to look at two things. One, you cannot have illegal aliens, individuals who are non citizens, dictate policy on people who have been here their whole lives, generational who are and this is this bolts for people that came across the border legally. I'm not a problem. I have no problem with immigration. Immigration, but you got to know who's coming across the border. None of us want it right. No, exactly, no reasonable person would ever deny somebody the opportunity to have the same opportunities we've had as long as they can do it the right way and we know who they are and they're not carrying you know, ak forty sevens of Pezukas across the border. God knows to do with what. So that that being said, in order to clean this up, you got to stop the corruption. You have to stop the ideology that's pulported itself into big government from federal level to state level. Think about this, to ninety seven percent of all federal employees are registered Democrats. Okay, they've got to stop voting or at least being biased in the sense of how they feel. They've got to do their job based on the job requirements, not the way their emotions or feelings are against a different type of political view. We have to stop start there. But that in itself is a challenge. But so let's go to the things, maybe the lowest hanging fruits. You have to have people that can clearly be third party, non biased of that any and all voter registration list. This is like a no brainer. I've said this before and I've said it again and I want you to kin expand on it. Who's counting about it? I'm sorry we have one minute left, so we can't expand on it. I wish we could now, and you're doing it. You're doing an excellent job ahead, you got it. You've got to have people that are in a position to get paid to do the right things and not to be able to look what happened in twenty which is border up the windows. Third party companies are out there. They'll validate good batter indifferent. You pay them enough money to stay honest, because that's just what it is. Sometimes you're never going to get the people that are on the inside to stay honest until you pay them from the outside end. Yep, you are absolutely right, Christian Briggs.
