[00:00:00] This is Matt Fitzgibbons from PatriotMusic.com and you're listening to The Ron Edwards American Experience. On with the show, this is it! And away we go.
[00:00:17] Say A, say M, say E, say R, say I C, say A, E.
[00:00:34] Ladies and gentlemen, it's the Ron Edwards American Experience talk show where our unalienable rights are celebrated. And now, your radio refreshment, Ron Edwards.
[00:00:53] Well, good day, good day and hello and how are you?
[00:01:23] I'm Ron Edwards and welcome to the Ron Edwards American Experience. It's a good day in the neighborhood, another good day. Man, oh, live. Great day for the FBI. Well, Kash Patel has been confirmed to lead the Federal Bureau of Investigation in a 51-49 Senate vote today, despite Democrats and desperate attempts to block his nomination and, of course, the lightweight RINOs as well.
[00:01:52] Patel, a former federal prosecutor and prior Trump administration intelligence official, won the vote without help from Republican Senators Susan Collins and Lisa Mikulski, who joined the Democrats against him. Surprisingly, Senator Mitch McConnell voted to confirm him as well. Now, here is, just want to read to you part of a letter that Susan Collins wrote as her excuse as why she could not vote for him.
[00:02:20] She says,
[00:03:08] She goes on. While I strongly support efforts to ensure all federal employees perform their responsibilities ethically and in accordance with the law, Mr. Patel's recent political profile undermines his ability to serve in the apolitical role of director of the FBI. Therefore, I will vote against his nomination. Kerplunk.
[00:03:37] What a goofball. What a goofball. What she is. She is. She is. Nothing more than a slow talking goofball. I mean, this woman has the nerve. I mean, where has she been over the past? I don't know, 20 years. Has she watched how political the FBI has been? How the FBI has gone after people who express patriotic viewpoints? And other things that are good for this country?
[00:04:07] Have you she has she seen how they look the other way as wrongdoers got away from get away with all kinds of nefarious activities in government? And outside of government? I mean, one has to wonder what these people are eating for breakfast. Well, I'm looking at a picture of Big Mama Abrams. Big Mama. Yeah, she's still Big Mama. And Big Mama's not happy.
[00:04:37] Yeah, Big Mama is kind of ticked off. She says, in fact, she says she's extremely concerned. The EPA has uncovered over two billion dollars set aside for climate group linked to Big Mama Stacey Abrams.
[00:04:59] Well, they uncovered two billion dollars set aside for a climate group linked to Big Mama Abrams. Abrams power forward communities, despite the fact that the organization reported just one hundred dollars in total revenue, raising eyebrows all over the place. The organization itself was founded in October of 2023 as part of a coalition led by the leftist group Rewiring America.
[00:05:28] And Abrams quickly made her involvement known to everyone who would listen. She said, quote, thrilled to be part of Rewiring America and the Power Forward Communities Coalition. This is how we expand access to clean energy by prioritizing housing, equity and resilience. Wow. She wrote that on October 15th of 2023.
[00:05:53] She went on to say that we are building a future where everyone, regardless of income or place, can thrive. Man alive. Power Forward Communities describes itself as the first national program to finance home energy efficiency upgrades at scale, claiming to help homeowners, developers and renters swap outdated inefficient appliances with more efficient and modernized options.
[00:06:20] Saving money for years ahead and ensuring our, as they call them, kids grow up with cleaner pollutant free air. Despite reporting merely one hundred dollars in revenue in its first few months, the Biden administration championing Green New Deal policies awarded that. No, not that stupid group. Two billion dollars in grants the following year in 2024.
[00:06:49] That's according to the Washington Free Beacon. Only eight of these greenhouse gas reduction fund grants were distributed by the Biden era Environmental Protection Agency. Big Mama Stacia Abrams of Forward Communities received two billion dollars to be a pass through entity for Biden's EPA's 20 billion dollar gold bar scheme. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said on X.
[00:07:19] And they reported just one hundred dollars in total revenue after their funding in late 2023. Well, as Jesse Lee Peterson likes to say, amazing. The organization confirmed this grant in an August 2024 press release celebrating that it was officially awarded two billion smackeroonies, a seven year National Clean Investment Fund grant from the Environmental Protection Agency.
[00:07:47] With the funds expected to start flowing into homes in early 2025, the grant will make possible the affordable decarbonization of homes and apartments throughout the country with a particular focus on low income and disadvantaged communities. According to their press release.
[00:08:07] Now, I'm saying all this to say that so far in early 2025, I cannot find anyone who has benefited from these services. But anyway, Big Mama Abrams is in a bit of a bad mood because it looks like Toto has pulled the curtain on her and her organization. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.
[00:08:36] Well, Ukraine. Mr. Zelensky, he's kind of getting a little bit of a support from Starmer, the prime minister of Great Britain. Both of them are hunkering down against Trump. Because Trump is saying no more money for you, Mr. Zelensky. And no U.S. troops are going to be going over there either. And that's the right thing, by the way. That is the right thing.
[00:09:05] America should have never gotten involved and should have allowed that to remain what it was, a regional conflict. Ukraine got herself into that situation. And it was up to Ukraine to get itself out. They poked the bear and the bear said, OK, here we go. Let's go. And they should have left. And the United States should have stayed out of it. And so should have NATO.
[00:09:37] But NATO was one of the reasons why Ukraine felt big and bad that they could take on the Russian bear. And they forgot that the Russian bear was kind of ticked off, you know, because of those laboratories that were throughout Ukraine and the human trafficking that was going on. And let's not forget the alleged kickback money to the Biden administration.
[00:10:00] And let's not also forget that Zelensky's government was allegedly selling a lot of those armaments to the cartels who have been, you know, being, you know, being a pain in the backside to the United States on our southern border. And elsewhere throughout the world. They're in 65 countries, by the way. Well, as we continue on the run over its American experience, we've got a guest coming up today, Matt Fitzgimmons.
[00:10:29] And we're going to be talking with him about the various issues and want to get his take on the FBI confirmation of Kash Patel as well. We'll be back on this. The Ron Edwards American experience. What's up, folks? Stay tuned. Be right back after these important messages.

[00:13:55] And we're back. This is the Ron Edwards American Experience. Thanks so much for tuning in from throughout America and around the world. Still celebrating the confirmation of Kash Patel who now shall lead the FBI. And potentially I think he will be the first leader of the FBI
[00:14:24] that is any good since I've been alive. Man, they've all been bad eggs. And they went from bad to worse, by the way. And now I believe we have a good one but time will tell. Anyway, let's engage with our guests. His name is Matt Fitzgibbons and he is a songwriter, a philosopher, a historian, an all-around good guy. Hello, Matt, and welcome back to the Ron Edwards American Experience.
[00:14:54] Hi, Ron. Pleasure to be with you again today. Thank you, sir. Hey, what is your response? How do you feel about Kash Patel being confirmed to lead the FBI? I'm thrilled. I'm really thrilled. You know, from a historical perspective, so much of what's occurred in the last month is just incredibly encouraging. You know, I was looking for your bio before this came up and I don't know exactly how long, but I know that you've been at this for a long time.
[00:15:23] For me, it's approaching exactly 20 years that I've been talking about the need to get rid of the deep state and things of this sort. And honestly, it's kind of strange to be on the other side of it now. You know, we've been underdogs for so long. It's very strange to actually see this happening. In terms of Kash Patel, for example, you know, President Eisenhower famously warned of the vast military industrial complex in his presidential exit speech.
[00:15:54] And we've seen the weaponization of the FBI, you know, the definition of the deep state for decades and decades and decades. And as you just said, we haven't seen a good FBI director in our lifetimes. I mean, the things that we know about what J. Edgar Hoover and others did, for example, even going back in time, are totally inexcusable when you consider what our republic is supposed to be based on and how these executive branch departments
[00:16:23] are supposed to function. But in recent years, you know, the overt politicization and weaponization of the FBI has been so anti-American. You know, when it started, who knows, probably under FDR back in the 1930s, would be my best guess. But in recent years, the number of scandals that they've been involved in, where almost no one has been punished in any way,
[00:16:51] is so anti-American. And today signals a reversal. We finally have the potential to have someone directing the FBI who can go in and weed it out and literally drain the swamp. I'm very excited about what we're going to see in the coming weeks and years. Yeah, it portends a... that good days are ahead.
[00:17:19] One of the things that can keep the momentum going in the long run is that there has to be a dramatic improvement in our government school system and an improvement in the messaging that most Americans receive at their churches as well. This needs to be a two-pronged approach, in my humble opinion. We need better moral instruction from the church and we need better intellectual instruction from our schools so that these good times can continue
[00:17:47] and we can continue to build the United States of America into the nation envisioned long ago by the founding fathers. What say you? Yeah, you know, I was... I'm sure you've been watching this as well. The Department of Government Efficiency, Doge, under Elon Musk. There was discussion just in the last day or two about whether or not some percentage of that President Trump has thrown around maybe 20% would go back to the American people,
[00:18:16] the taxpayers in particular, as the form of a stimulus check. And my first instinct, you know, within a millisecond, was no, put it all towards paying down the debt. But to your point, I would say two things. One, there is an advantage in doing that, even though, you know, I don't like the idea of 20% of it not going towards the debt. On the other hand, a lot of people really don't pay attention to the news. They know nothing of history. You know, they vote party lines the way that they support
[00:18:45] their sports teams. And receiving a check for a few thousand dollars or who knows, it could be upwards of five, might just prompt them to have discussions about what Doge is doing and where this check came from. So that could be a positive. And on the other side of your point, I would also point out that I'm expecting to see a larger rift form in the country on the state level. And the reason I say that
[00:19:14] is because the Republican states, the red states are going to benefit tremendously from what, you know, this sort of efficiency that we're seeing in the federal government, stripping it down and making it effective and less expensive and smaller and less regulations and all the rest of it. But I don't know whether or not the blue states are going to benefit nearly as much. I mean, where I live, for example, in Connecticut, you know, they're still singing the same old line.
[00:19:44] And I don't know that it will make much of a difference. Much of what Hartford is doing is identical to Joe Biden's philosophy and Barack Obama's philosophy. And I know there'll be a benefit to the number of illegal aliens that will be removed and off of the payrolls from Obamacare to the public schools. But I do expect to see a rift formed between blue states and red states where the blue states won't nearly see as much of a benefit. And, you know,
[00:20:13] I believe that's true. And that has been predicted even in the past. And it really bothers me because the left has taken over so many of our most beautiful states, whether it's the great state of New York and Connecticut. The first time I saw Connecticut was in late autumn. And it was like the first snowfall of the season and just rolling down those beautiful country roads. And it was just so beautiful,
[00:20:43] spectacularly beautiful. Upstate New York, the great city of New York, Pennsylvania, California, Colorado, these beautiful places are just being taken over by the left. And it's, it bothers me to no end. And I think you're right. And there's going to be some agitation. But I wanted to, you know, I kind of agree with you about the doge situation and the
[00:21:13] refund checks to the American people. But I think a better way to do it, instead of a one-time check, I think since only 5% of all the money that is collected every year for Social Security payments goes to the American people, they should up that to around 50% or maybe just 40% and increase every, all the recipients pay anyway. because since
[00:21:43] the Americans are the ones that put all the money in there, they should get at least 40% of it back per average. And I think that would go even, it would even be more beneficial not only to the people, but also to the Trump administration and getting the argument out about why these things are going on. And it would be a huge stimulation to the economy, which would cause more collection of sales taxes, which would
[00:22:12] offset giving people back what they gave out anyway. So, you know, that's what I think about that. But I'd like to get your feedback on that and more things when we return on this, the Ron Edwards American Experience. This is Matt Fitzgibbons from patriotmusic.com and you're listening to the Ron Edwards American Experience.
[00:23:03] It's easy to understand why so many Democrats and lineups are squealing like pigs at a bacon factory now that Doge is discovering, exposing, and hopefully deposing of government waste and abuse. Hello, I'm Ron Edwards on today's page from the original book brought to you by Root Brands, premium products for your body and soul. I wasn't surprised when Elon Musk and his crew discovered all those dead people still collecting Social Security payments. A few of the
[00:23:32] dead Social Security recipients' birthdays predates the Declaration of Independence of the United States from Great Britain and of course every one of those dead Social Security recipients vote Democrats every single election. One has to wonder how many of those dead Social Security recipients can be matched up to Democrat states' voting rolls, especially in those big, important, dying, Democrat-dominated cities. I would bet it's probably a lot of the same people. This situation gives new meaning
[00:24:02] to the walking dead, which are a sizable part of the core base of the Democrat Party. The Democrat Party is a political organization of death that is hell-bent on literally killing our republic. I say hell no to their mission and no to hell. What say you? I'm Ron Edwards.

[00:26:06] Ron Edwards, the new voice of America. And we're back. This is the Ron Edwards American Experience. And our guest today
[00:26:35] is Matt Fitzgibbons, philosopher, songwriter, all around good guy, pro-American, et cetera, et cetera. And Matt, before the break, I shared an idea about the money situation, which, you know, you know, Trump wants to give us $5,000 checks or whatever to certain Americans. And while on the surface, it's a great idea, but I think it would be better
[00:27:04] if Americans just saw an increase in their payments on a regular basis. And because let's not forget, Americans have not been getting what, getting back what they put into the system for a long time, if ever. And so that way, Social Security recipients could live a better life, they're going to be spending more money,
[00:27:33] and all the other money that they're going to be finding in the waste would more than recover what's, you know, they may not be getting or contributing to the debt from the Social Security system anyway that they'd be giving back to the American people. and the economy is going to be stimulated, that's another way you decrease the debt, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. And getting rid of certain taxes will also greatly stimulate the economy
[00:28:03] which will increase sales tax increase and as far as revenues coming into the coffers. And so what do you think about that approach to it? Well, I think that any injection of money into the economy that Joe Biden left us is going to be a good thing. I mean, a lot of people are really hurting out there. Yeah. I can tell you that some of the younger people I know wouldn't like your idea though simply because I've heard this discussion often over the years
[00:28:32] where there's a negative feeling about the way that baby boomers voted all of their lives and caused this mess that we're in in the first place. So some younger people would take exception to the idea of only increasing Social Security. and I don't disagree with you that, you know, people have been grossly underpaid. But on the other hand, I do understand the perspective that younger people also want a piece of that, particularly, you know, if they were working towards
[00:29:01] getting Donald Trump elected, you know, you could imagine that those people in particular might say, well, you know, the youth voted for this administration in record numbers and where's our cut? I would say that there are going to be a lot of really good ideas bounced around in the White House and amongst, you know, the people in Doge and elsewhere in the country and articles and shows like this and I'll throw out an idea that I had many, many years ago. I was on a show at some point and I remember discussing this
[00:29:31] and I couldn't tell you when or where but my idea was the effect would be similar to yours but my idea was to allow, institute a new program so that government employees would get a financial reward maybe based on a percentage with a cap if they point out ways of saving money in their own department. Something that would actually inspire federal employees to be able to go and find corruption, fraud,
[00:30:01] and misuse of funds where they would be financially incentivized to report it. So, anyway, there are a lot of ideas on the table and I think something good will definitely come of all of this. Yeah, I think that's another idea that should be added to the thing. That goes without saying that. To me, that's common sense. But, and I get your point about the young, but what has to be told of the young is that if
[00:30:31] you're working, you are now contributing to the social security system for your future. And the proof of the pudding that is that it's not like the social security system was actually running out of money. The money was just being taken and wasted elsewhere. And the proof of that is that the Americans have been only receiving 5% of the total intake, and the rest of it has been wasted who God knows where.
[00:31:00] And so that's, you know, all you have to do is explain to them, if you're working, you are now contributing to your future. And now it's reset so that when you become a retirement age, you will receive more of what you're worth. And you just have to let them know that this is what we're fixing now for your future. You know, you have to give them the WIFM approach. What's in it for me?
[00:31:30] And what's in it for them is their future as well if it's fixed now. I'm a little bit more of a libertarian, and I would like to see an end to Social Security eventually. I'd like to see citizens be able to have options where either they can contribute to this socialist program or they can choose not to, where they can, you know, put monies in other sorts of retirement plans, something along the lines of
[00:32:00] school vouchers. I'd like to see competition against government. I don't like the idea of government having a monopoly in anything that isn't absolutely necessary. You know, I wouldn't want to see, for example, Connecticut and Colorado and Arizona all form their own militaries and get rid of the U.S. military. That is an area where I do believe the federal government should have control over it, you know, just like with immigration, for example. But when it comes to education, you know, again,
[00:32:29] returning this back to the states is a good idea. And of course, you know, I think this is going to, like I said, form a rift between the red states and the blue states, right? But for Social Security, I kind of go by the same guiding principles where I would like to see the federal government eventually get out of it. I mean, we know what a massive expense this is. And it doesn't look anything like what it was intended to look like when it was instituted in the 1930s. I mean, you know, there was
[00:32:59] a clause in it that said that the Social Security identification would never be used as an identification system. And yet we provide that all the time for all sorts of reasons and we're forced to if we want to do business with certain companies, not just for tax reporting purposes. So it's turned into this big behemoth as well. And anyway, when in doubt for me, I lean towards the idea of individuals being able to choose what they want to do.
[00:33:30] Well, and I'm in agreement with you because in the past I have worked with organizations to bring that about where people could invest in stocks or whatever private sector entities they wanted to if they wanted to make that choice. choice. And the reason why I did that because I believed in choice, but at the same time I didn't agree with totally getting rid of Social Security because not everyone is going to be wise with
[00:34:00] their money and it was set up to be sort of a cushion for folks who I guess if they didn't save or whatever but they knew that that was being put aside for them if the government would just be honest with what they were doing and the people would just get back in old age what they had been putting out and but if you wanted to opt out because I remember when we were fighting for this at that time Chile for
[00:34:28] example had the approach where if they didn't want Social Security they could go into the stock market or some other investments and per average the average Chilean elderly citizen was better off than the average U.S. elderly citizen because of the private sector investments but they still did not get rid of their Social Security system now things have gone haywire in Chile because they've gone
[00:34:58] totally socialist down there and gone back to nutsville but that was part of our approach and some of the things that we did fight for years ago so once again I'm in agreement with you. Yeah I mean you bring up some very good points honestly none of these things are guaranteed and that's ultimately what the problem is you know if we look at it from that perspective because if you enabled people for example to donate to contribute I should say to their own
[00:35:27] 401k even 401ks are tied to the economy you know stocks of course are as well so none of it is guaranteed but I think to the same extent we can see that Social Security itself is not guaranteed and you know when we look at a pie chart of what the United States spends many of these things are being addressed but many of them are not being addressed. Social Security for example and you know Medicaid these these are absolutely huge
[00:35:57] these socialist programs are threatening to destroy the United States. so many of the things that are happening and it's crazy it's absolutely blows my mind I know you do your show so often that that maybe you're not as stunned by this as I am because the last time I spoke to you was I believe a month before the elections so since then a heck of a lot has happened and for me I'm I'm still kind of flabbergasted about
[00:36:26] the fact that it's only been a month and we've seen so many good changes so rapidly it's it's it's kind of hard to wrap your brain around trying to imagine what things are going to look like in six months or a year but I will say this I would agree with you assuming this is what you were saying that we should not get rid of Social Security immediately I'm not suggesting that at all I'm simply saying that there are bound to be some other ideas where
[00:36:56] there's a mix of individual choice and a continuance of this system keeping it solvent so that we can gradually reduce that color on the pie chart yeah yeah and to do that you have to maintain principles in place that will make ensure that our economy remains strong and prosperous and so we have to do that we have to keep the the leftist Neanderthals out of government
[00:37:25] and out of the way so that we can maintain a prosperous way of life in this country to ensure that we do have these things going forward for the younger people that are will one day be of elderly age and need these kinds of you know these kind of benefits like to get your take on here's a nice easy one it seems that
[00:37:54] congressional democrats have hit a record low and republicans believe it or not are enjoying a record high as far as ratings right now for example in the poll Quinnipiac shows that president trump's approval rating i'm surprised it's as low as 45% now and 49% disapprove or four points underwater that's far outside of his current average which has
[00:38:24] him now 1.5 points above water it seems to be improving congressional democrats are at 47 points underwater man and the republicans are at 52% approval rating it just seems that you know based upon actions and recent weeks things are shifting and if the republicans can hold fast and
[00:38:54] i guess keep their rhinos in check a lot more good things can happen because for in order for this country to be changed for the long run we've only just begun mad and you got about a minute or so to respond to that but yeah we've only just begun to be honest with you i mean you know congress when is the last time that they hit 20% approval ratings you know
[00:39:24] i mean it's been decades and decades and decades everybody hates them for good reason in terms of trump i would say that there hasn't been enough time for you know policies to have any real impact so a lot of folks that don't pay attention that aren't news junkies and historians they don't really know any difference yet but the other thing i would add is that with the two congressional seats having been appointed to lead departments i believe
[00:39:54] it's april 1st that we're going to see those two republican seats restored in the house of representatives so we'll have two more seats to offset those two known yeah and that and that's a good thing matt i want to thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedule to be with us today as always i enjoy our conversations and much success to your business and how can folks get a hold of you if you they want to buy some of your great music
[00:40:23] thanks ron everything is available at patriot music.com and i have a bunch of youtube videos i've been doing as well shorts less than three minutes so patriot music.com is where you can find everything and i love to hear from people thank you so much and uh continued success and folks the successful ron edwards american experience will continue right after this

[00:43:31] american experience a charter member of the emerging new mainstream media is not the biggest but your voices and actions are so don't give up
[00:44:12] yes you are listening to the ron edwards american experience and thanks so much you know roy russ vot he's the former director of the office of management and budget he recently made some bold claims regarding the role of government institutions in shaping political agendas now his statements have sparked debate over several pressing political issues particularly government waste and ideological influence he has argued that elon musk's actions challenge
[00:44:42] the political establishment yeah referring to a group that he terms democrats and that us aid is wasting taxpayer dollars on ideological programs now this article aims to unpack many claims critically examining their potential implications for politics and governance and this was written by emil amani and you know
[00:45:11] this thing has to to really run its full course as far as cleaning out the government spending and waste and because they're not just wasting money in many cases they are using this money that they're wasting or spending they're using it against we the people and they're also using it to benefit things that are unnatural around the world or they have been
[00:45:41] these things are starting to be cut off and we all know that the USAID was established by President John F. Kennedy to help to be an organization to actually help and help those who are in need and things of that nature I really doubt if John F. Kennedy envisioned
[00:46:10] the USAID funding the many things that they're now finding out the term Democrats seems to be a blend of OMB or Office of Management and Budget and Democrats likely designed to create a negative connotation by coining this term Mr. Vote implies that the Democrat Party's influence on the OMB results in inefficient and partisan decision making and that's obvious
[00:46:40] the OMB plays a huge role in overseeing federal spending and its influence over budget decisions often leading to partisan debates and unfortunately for our republic the Democrat Party has chosen to use our money to promote everything imaginable that is evil and evil is what it is
[00:47:09] destructive it doesn't matter if it's in financial decisions it doesn't matter if it means supporting things like unnatural sexual practices in the middle of Zimbabwe or forcing these things on other nations around the world as well in the current political climate government spending has become a focal point with sharp divisions between those who advocate for expansive government programs most of which are no
[00:47:39] good and those who seek to reduce waste and increase accountability which should be the goal of everyone who enters office and by the way that would be part of my testing if I could test everyone who runs for office not only would they have to know the constitution and bill of rights and things of that nature and understand the amendments they would also have to have a real clear focus
[00:48:08] on accountability and what to do with and how to utilize the taxpayers money Elon Musk attack attack high-tech mogul and influence figure has become a lightning rod for political discourse throughout a republic votes claim that Musk's actions challenge the democrats alludes to Musk's outspoken critique critiques of government
[00:48:38] waste and inefficiency his many tweets and public statements often draw attention to what he perceives as the misallocation of public funds and we all know that is the case the democrats have been misallocating public funds since technically if you want to get real technical about it since just after 1913 particularly in the space technology
[00:49:08] sectors more recently now this scrutiny could put government officials in a difficult position as defending controversial spending becomes increasingly indefensible in the public eye the term indefensible here refers to the growing difficulty in justifying expenditures perceived as wasteful or lacking clear benefit to we the american people political opponents often use this term to erode trust in government
[00:49:37] institutions amplifying criticism of wasteful spending and by the way a lot of that spending is utilized by departments of government which should not even be in existence they're unconstitutional there are dozens and dozens and dozens of departments that should be eliminated not just reducing spending and making it more efficient
[00:50:07] because what happens let's say if a democrat gets back in office god forbid all they have to do is swell those departments right back up but what they should be doing once they continue to get the momentum in the right direction start just lopping off these unconstitutional and harmful government departments put them out of existence because by the way there should only be a few
[00:50:37] departments of government seriously there should not be that many I'm probably saying too many when I say there should be about 12 departments technically that's probably too many right there but I know that we there are hundreds of them large and small and many of them are duplicates and they're just it's like you have this
[00:51:06] this this this this they remind me of the Borg where they're just they just keep growing and growing and they're all alike they're all there to grow to grow themselves and to grow and influence and to take over and turn everyone into a government Borg I mean that's basically what's going on and remember when in Star Trek series and when they go against
[00:51:36] the Borg how how those were those were some some horrible battles well that's what we're dealing with now the Borg like entrenched government departments and that's why people like big mama Stacy Stacey Abrams are going to Nutsville because oh oh there's another two billion there's another 40 billion here there's another hundred million there and we're just got a clean house get the big broom out
[00:52:06] folks but now that I see that my time is up thank you so much for your time my friends I thank you very much you will become one with the Borg tick tock tick tock tock tock tock tock tock tock tock tock tock and as I always like to say at this time even with delays remember to pray for your nation pray for your family pray for your friends and yes even pray for your enemies
