"At 6 is pop serrat time. It also may be breakfast time or yoga time, but definitely listening time. All right, America, welcome back, rich Valdez average valves with an S, the phone number 8 6 6 5 O 5 46 26 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo, the phone number. If you want to join us and as promised, our guest Adam Angie from the open the books foundation is with us. And we're going to talk a little bit of China because there's a lot of China to talk about. Adam, welcome. Rich, thanks for having me on. It's great to be back. Oh, thank you, brother. Always a pleasure. So now I was reading a little bit about your latest work and my goodness. There's so much China news out there. Help us understand a little bit of what you've discovered. So there's a recent report done that is making national news. And we've given it a lot of highlight. I think it's a terrific report on the transparency of the People's Republic of China, the PRC, the Chinese Communist Party, and how they go about sending some of their top students to the United States. We educate them in our colleges and universities. We're employing them in our national laboratories, our crown jewels of technological innovation in these national laboratories like Los Alamos, out in New Mexico, were oftentimes funding them through taxpayer supported federal grants and giving them top clearance so they get to review the top secrets, information in the military, the program that's super secret programs that we're working on and then China recruits them back to the motherland. So now they're a 162 scientists that weren't used to work at Los Alamos. I now working back in China for the Chinese Communist Party. They're not working on behalf of the American people any longer. Unbelievable. Now, this, I think, is a big deal because this is in addition to what we learned about a couple of years ago with the Confucius Institutes where they were kind of ushering in some of the Chinese Communist Party doctrine and now it seems they're affecting scientists, which is worrisome, especially in a post COVID world. Yes, no one can argue that this is not a national security threat. Here are just some of the programs that these scientists that used to work, like I said at Los Alamos, The Crown jewel of our national laboratory in New Mexico, and now work in China and they're working on programs such as hypersonic missiles, deep earth penetrating warheads, jet engines, unmanned vehicles, think super drones in the like, and submarine noise reduction techniques. These are 5 major areas of military readiness. And like I said, these top scientists, they're not working for the United States government any longer in our military. They're working for the Chinese Communist Party. This is horrible. And again, this is a 160 Chinese born scientists working on everything that we won't want them to work on ever. But this is how this is what's happening. And this is how they've been able to achieve this level of success. Now, and it's great for the Chinese Communist Party. Tens of millions of dollars oftentimes. How does this happen? Well, look, we need to get serious. I mean, our FBI has focused on loud parents that are upset at school board meetings. I mean, seriously, right? So the FBI does recognize the Chinese threat. Look, it's a strategy and a lot of levels. Number one is the recruitment strategy. Number two is just straight up stealing and espionage. And so the FBI, every ten to 12 hours opens up a new espionage case case where China is trying to literally steal private sector or government secrets, patents, technologies. FBI director Christopher wray gave a speech and he said that the espionage of China is quote the largest transfer of wealth in human history. They're literally stealing us and robbing us in the private sector and the public sector. And we're happy to pay for it. And there was up to 5000 concurrent cases right now that the FBI has opened. On Chinese espionage. So on one hand, they're putting their top students in our colleges and universities where we educate them, we train them international labs, we give them the top secret clearance to the secrets. They recruit them back to China and in the meantime, we fund them with tens of millions of dollars with a federal grants. Now, Adam, what can you tell us about the level of security clearance that some of them have? So there's a so at least one of the 162 scientists had a Q level clearance. It's top secret, it's to restrict the data into the national security information. And he added at two institutions, not only at Los Alamos, where he worked until 2010, but I believe he went to the university in Nevada in a very sophisticated program that he headed up and he also had the Q clearance at that university as well. And then, and then he was recruited back to China where he works in a university called the southern university of science and technology and that is what China is trying to make into the Stanford of China. That is their crown jewel of education establishment.

"All right, America, welcome back, rich Valdez filling in for Jim bohannon tonight, 8 6 6 5 O 5 four 6 two 6 8 6 6 5 O Jimbo is the phone number and our guest Adam Angie from the open the books foundation, the watch. I keep saying that. The watchdog group that is watching the money that we earn and they spend. Adam, I want to talk about this Baywatch story. And recap everything and really get a focus on the rest of the work that you're doing. But this Baywatch story caught my eye because I had no idea how much a lifeguard could earn. Tell us about this. Well, who knew who knew that being a Los Angeles County lifeguard could be so unbelievably lucrative. They worked in the sum, the ocean surf, the golden sands of California. I mean, rich, you remember Baywatch, the TV show, and they watched the movie. And those lifeguards now are making up to $510,000 a year. So 98 LA county lifeguards earned at least $200,000, 20 of them earn more than 300 grand, we had three of them north of $400,000 in 2021 and the top paid LA county lifeguard made 510,000. So we got Anthony Fauci, who's running the racket with the other guy who's running these really running the racket, getting all of these royalties, making a boatload of money both on the taxpayer dying from salary, the highest paid salary person. Then the kickbacks, what I'm going to call the NIH racket on royalties. And now we've got lifeguards. And again, I don't mean to minimize lifeguards. I mean, I hope every lifeguard that saves every life is well compensated. But when you hear about half a $1 million or more with overtime and things like that, it really, to me, it begs the question is this normal? Is this what a professional athlete like being a lifeguard? Is that like being a professional athlete, is that what they earn everywhere else? Well, let's put this in perspective. If you are a four star general in the United States military, your base pay is $197,000 a year. So there is absolutely no comparison between an LA county lifeguard and a four star general in the United States military. Who's got all the responsibility in the world for millions of our men and women who are soldiers and the nuclear arsenal. So look, we took a look at how, how in LA county lifeguard can make so much money and we just found a broken system. One of the top paid lifeguards over the course of the last 6 years on over time alone think about this made nearly $1 million in 6 years in overtime alone. He made $980,000 in OT. Wow. That's almost a $1 million. And I laughed because I think I should have become a lifeguard. Incredible. I mean, total compensation for this guy over the 6 year period was nearly $2.4 million. Being a lifeguard in LA county. Man, that's great. All right, now our remaining time, which is about a minute. I want you to tell us all about open the books. Tell us how we could keep up with the work that you're doing, how it works and how we can support you. So if you're interested in your K through 12 schools, or any other local state or federal unity government, we have virtually every single public employee, their salary and their retirement pension record on our website.

"And Adam Yeah I have to have a question for you These lifeguards that are making 500 some $1000 a year Have you ever looked into maybe who these people are I mean because you just don't walk off the street and make that kind of money I mean you know maybe are they related to some of the elite out there in California You have to be honest Yeah you may have missed the first part Paul of what Adam had explained and where that money came from but if you can touch on it again briefly Adam Yeah this comes right out of the Los Angeles County checkbook So we haven't explored the relational the relationships or the families at these lifeguards come from If I had to guess I mean they're just regular Americans that have they've really lucked out I mean they're represented by a powerful union who is negotiated on their behalf and they have maxed out with one party democratic rules in Los Angeles County their pay pension and perks And now it adds up to 510,000 for the most highly compensated lifeguard Let's go to Robert in Georgia He has been listening because wants to ask a question about Doctor Fauci's money You're on with Adam Angie Robert Hey how are you doing I just wanted to comment about the Fauci situation You know Fauci was given a what was it an honorary doctorate the other day at the University of Michigan And received a standing ovation or what have you from an audience of these students and so forth They should have been throwing tomatoes and so forth that if I'm not advocating violence but that shows how brainwashed these people are But as far as Fauci goes he needs to be in prison First of all and second of all do you remember former Romanian dictator Nikolai chasqui who was overthrown in 1989 Adam I remember the name yes Do you remember doctor Jack kevorkian Oh yeah Anthony Fauci and Nikolai chaski and Jack dvorkin they could be three brothers I mean they're very very very similar Thank you Robert thanks for your call from Georgia Any response to that Adam Why would you say you know at open the books dot com what we do is we follow the money So here's what the record shows Doctor Anthony Fauci is the top paid federal bureaucrat out earning everybody including 4.3 million of his peers Number two when he retires he's going to retire on at least $355,000 a year and that's the largest federal golden parachute retirement pension in history And here's point number three His wife misses Fauci Christine Grady she actually is the chief bioethicist at the national Institutes of health So while doctor Anthony Fauci was running America's healthcare response to COVID she was actually running America's ethical policy response to COVID through NIH so all of Fauci's healthcare policies had to pass muster with her office She out earns the vice president of the United States and last year she made around $240,000 herself 8 6 6 5 zero Jimbo that's 866-505-4626.

"The Jimbo hannon show continues I'm John traps It will likely be morning before we learn more about what happened in Tulsa Oklahoma today At least four people were killed in a shooting on the campus of Saint Francis hospital Tulsa Oklahoma city police say the shooter died of a self inflicted gunshot wound there were injuries Again none of those appear to be life threatening but things will unfold Obviously on this story tomorrow and we'll learn a lot more What happened in uvalde Texas many of those details started coming out very soon And I think law enforcement in this situation learned that rather than give out the wrong information they might want to have their facts in order before they begin releasing statements to the public So we're talking with Adam Angie this hour he reports he reports and then grand juries indictments and successful prosecutions occur Government accountability office audits Much more anything you're most proud of mister Angie in your reporting Yeah so every year we post the salary and pension records at 25 million public employees at the federal state and local level across the country The first year we did this this was back in 2013 We did it in Illinois where we're headquartered And it is the Super Bowl of corruption and right away right out of the blocks there was a school district treasurer where his pay went from a 156,001 year to 294,000 the next year While he was cashing in vacation and sick bank days that he wasn't allowed to do it's like this payoff And even in Cook County that's the county of Chicago Prosecutor can not find corruption anywhere He was indicted and he spent time in the federal independent entry Yeah That's the town that coined the phrase vote early vote often is it not Are you from that area Yes yes So we understand that Chicago playbook We see it playing out at the national level And a Davos on an international basis The playground for the world's billionaire elite Every year the Uber rich descend on a picturesque town in Switzerland they discuss Shaping our future into a utopian global society Do they not And so they actually believe that the failures in government are the result Not from corruption or ineptitude or incompetence in government but they really believe that government isn't powerful enough It doesn't tax enough It doesn't spend enough and it doesn't do an up surveillance of its citizens They want an even bigger government and they want to constrict your individual freedom and liberty Of course I think it's called well it's known as communism Communism and socialism in most sane circles Now the host organization World Economic Forum was founded by a German guy economist I think And he's been out there a little bit on these global and regional agendas and to top it all off I think one of the reasons you investigate this group is that the American taxpayer funds the sponsoring organization with tens of millions of dollars in federal grants So when I heard that Davos was reconvening after the pandemic they hadn't got together in person in two years and it's the World Economic Forum that hosts this thing I sent our auditors out to find out just how much taxpayer money ended up in this place And we nearly fell off our chair $60 million since 2013 right out of the federal checkbook These are federal grants from U.S. taxpayers that went to the World Economic Forum And look this is the elite the elite of the elites They've got all the connections in the world a member a membership to their organization cost of corporation up to $650,000 a year just to ticket the Davos cost 28 grand if you want the coveted all access badge John that costs 50 grand they don't need to American taxpayer help They can't argue they need our money but they got $60 million to the Obama administration and through the Trump administration since 2013 From what little I saw of what was recorded there and broadcast I found it interesting that some of these visionaries had ideas like us folks common folks the Johnny lunch buckets of the world We are supposed to swallow a carbon footprint pill I guess this thing dissolves into us and a tiny microchips remain in our body and then every move we make every breath we take they'll be watching us Well I guess this is part of a great recess And this is a concept that Schwab proposed in his book about COVID-19 and described it as a guide to understanding how the virus can how it disrupted our social and economic systems and what changes he advocated that is needed to create a more inclusive resilient and sustainable world going further I don't think their vision I don't think their vision is predicated on what is made America the greatest nation in the history of the world and that's a belief that our rights come from God and not government 8 6 6 5 zero Jimbo is the number that's 866-505-4626 We have Paul in zanesville Ohio I believe Paul welcome to the Jim bohannon show Good evening John.

Anthony Fauci's extremely exorbitant earnings and what some government workers are paid to sit at the beach And that'll shock you We'll get the low low on that coming up First joining us this half hour Aaron Craig mister Craig's one of the leading intellectual property and unfair competition business trial lawyers in California He's a partner in the trial and global disputes practice group Welcome to the show mister Craig Thanks John It's a pleasure to be here And yeah as you say I'm a partner at the law firm of king installing and in addition to those matters you mentioned I've also done a decent amount of defamation in entertainment work And I couldn't be happier to be on with you today to answer your question How closely did you follow this Johnny Depp Amber Heard trial I followed it pretty closely It was certainly very entertaining Salacious at times but also I think it's an important case for defamation and as well as all the social issues that have gone with it I guess the legal victory for Johnny Depp but he and amber were found liable for defamation Is that a rare to find both parties liable It is rare I mean it's rare to have two parties suing each other for defamation I tended to think that the way this case was going to shake out was that the jury would actually find the opposite I thought that the jury would find that neither party had met their burden to prove all the elements of defamation and said they surprised me and a lot of other people by finding that both of them had been liable for defamation and to be honest I think it sets a bad precedent and kind of a scary trend She had written an article did not mention Johnny specifically and that appeared in a major newspaper So Johnny I guess he felt as though people knew who amber was speaking of and so was he really after getting his First Amendment right back Is this what was this a First Amendment case I think this was in large part about him getting trying to vindicate his reputation As you might know he had previously lost a trial in England Where he had tried to sue a newspaper there for printing allegations that he had Been guilty of abuse he was unsuccessful The court there found that he had committed substantial number of those abuse elements So I think he really wanted to get his reputation back and he seems to have done it Were those acts permitted as evidence in this case or were they allowed to be discussed in this case They were discussed There was a lot of discussion of the trial in England but it wasn't it wasn't conclusively established the judge didn't instruct the jury that a previous court had made these findings and that this jury was bound by those findings That would be the law in many states but Virginia has a slightly different law that says even though there was a prior adjudication of these facts this jury was allowed to make their own decision and apparently they decided that Amber Heard statements were sufficiently false that he was entitled to win on the defamation count It was depth that went after her Correct And then she filed toward him So does that require two different trials Well we see another No the court actually dealt with both claims in the same proceeding here So we put on his evidence that she had defamed him and then she was allowed to present her evidence that he had the same her And the jury was asked to decide both at the same time And the jury did so the jury found that he wins on his claims against amber and the jury awarded him $10 million in damages and an additional amount of punitive damages And then the jury found that on her claims against him she had also proven her case and that they awarded her $2 million against against Johnny So it's a very unusual situation and those verdicts seem pretty inconsistent with each other With them both being found liable does either party have a chance and I don't think Johnny would but amber may have the case to want to Is there an appeal process when it comes to these type cases and since she didn't get as much money as he did wasn't awarded as much would she have the right to go back and pursue additional damages They can both appeal I think it's unlikely that Johnny's going to appeal I think it's very likely that Amber Heard will appeal There's a couple of technical reasons why she may do so But one of the most important ones is that there were some text messages made by Johnny's agent that seemed to indicate that he had in fact physically abused her And those didn't come into evidence The judge ruled that they shouldn't be admitted And I think her lawyers are going to bring that up in an appeal These appeals are always hard to win but I do think you will see an appeal And where does that appeal have to be made to just refile the case And you're at the same level or do you have to take it to a higher court So it will be filed in the Virginia Court of Appeals which is a court that oversees the trial court in the state of Virginia It's an interesting fact that the case was brought in the state of Virginia even though both of them lived in here in California where I live and all of the events almost all the events happened in California But they were able to bring the suit in Virginia Johnny's depth Johnny Depp's team was because that's where The Washington Post printed and her article was in The Washington Post And they did that The reason that they did that was to take advantage of some very favorable laws in Virginia about defamation cases that allowed the case to go forward where I think in most other states the case would have been thrown out at a pretty early stage Could they have gone to any state and filed the.

"Roll it. Well, well, well, hello, welcome to couple's therapy. My name is Ann. And I am Naomi. And we are here with our dear pets around us Mabel. Surround us. And you want to maybe lean in a bow tie. She's ready for everyone. Truly grateful. Maybe you've all come here to support her. Yes, thank you so much. Thank you. She just had her fourth round of chemo to that yesterday and today process. I don't know if really a three day process. If you count till tomorrow. Can you see it wearing on us? Do you see like we were just on our first vacation like a year and a half? We went for a couple of days to Palm Springs. And so I let my beard grow a little bit. Chock full of white. I don't know if it's just a pandemic, if it's just Asian, could just be aging. Or if it's also just like all the stuff we're dealing with with mammal, but it is sapping. Oh, you can kind of see some of mine. Y'all can see some of that girl. It is real. It is real, and I call it pandemic gray. Because I didn't have all that. No, okay, I didn't have on app before March 2020. Naomi's 28 and already looks like rogue. From the X-Men. I like that you said it like mister movie phone. That's a real throwback. Dial two. Or diagnosis murder. Dial four, or I married an expert murderer. I don't know. I tried to think of a movie from the past. I know I'm talking about that earlier today. I could think of a movie, so I literally was like, what TV show was on 20 years ago? Y'all can we talk a little bit about how veterinarians love to make you crazy? Can I get into that and drew? Well, I was gonna say, why don't we just go through Mabel's stuff and eventually get there? But if you want to start well now, what do you mean? Guys, we're on the uncharted waters. I love it. Go ahead. I'm gonna jump suit on show. It's probably you wanna start. I was just gonna go like, if you don't know what the process of chemotherapy is with a dog. Yes. Depending on, I guess, I guess it's different for every kind of dog that different chemicals, different, whatever's for Mabel. It is a two day process that we are doing every week for four weeks and then every other week for two months, two months, two months. So yeah, when I say halfway through, I mean, halfway through in terms of the number of treatments. We still have another two months of this. But she's doing good y'all, Mabel is doing way better. It's wild how this dog is straight chilling. I thought she was gonna like be real tire. She was gonna be like a little rickety. Mabel don't give a fuck, okay? I'm sorry, I heard parents were watching. I shouldn't be cursing. No. Mabel is chilling loving her life out here running these streets literally? She has poison coursing through every cell in her body and it is not slowing her down in the slightest. I swear to God, I'm like, we should all be so lucky. I know I couldn't do it, y'all. I literally was told I had a lumpy titty, and I said, cash it in. Cash it in. Wasn't even cancer. Just told that mati was lumpy and I said I'm out. I'm out. And I'm the one who told her. And I literally was like, okay, I need like the moment I was like, I'm lumpy, I'm gonna die. I'm just like, I take to my bed. I don't speak above a whisper. Right. I treat every conversation like it's the last year of Victorian. Very much so. We're like, Andy's like, I'm gonna go to the grocery store and I'm like, cherish it. Cherish it. I couldn't take it. That was like for just one week. And then Mabel up in here actually getting Nick chemotherapy and is like, can I eat some food? Can we hit the streets? And I'm like, yeah, you're right. You're right. Our neighborhood is like full of broken glass. It looks like crystal knock happens every night or something. And so it's very difficult walking me, but and I was like, not looking forward to the chemotherapy swallowing her down, but I was like, oh, it'll be easier to navigate the piles of broken glass and the burnt out husks of trash cans. Absolutely, when she is full of these chemotherapy chemicals, no, it's not. It's worse. She has more. The opposite. It's like a comic book. It's like she was bitten by a radioactive chemotherapy. Radioactive chemotherapy. Absolutely. I mean, didn't you say it was very very Wolverine? Yes. And Wolverine energy. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. It's like weapon X of course, a very common reference that everyone will get now. I'm actually, I bet that's more of a, I bet enough people have seen the movies at the very least, if not read them. I was gonna say adamantium. That is what I know. That's how many of those movies I've seen Adam Angie horses through Wolverine's veins. They are adamantium is his bones, right? I was not going to be replying. I was not going to correct it. I know, I know you weren't, and that's why we're still together. Because you will let me just pop up at the mouth. What did you say my first T-shirt should be, it's just me saying, I just be saying stuff. Sure. 'cause that's it. I just pop off at the mouth, let the chips fall where they may. After the jubu T-shirt sell out, then I'd just be saying stuff. Which is basically beside what? Okay, did Luke just call us nerds? Luke, I'm not a nerd. What if I just start fighting with people in the chat? And that's the whole thing. I don't put that comment up. The comments we want. When they insult us, Nikki, please don't put up comments insulting us. But so Friday, so it's basically like this. Friday, we take her across town, drive 40 minutes down. Santa Monica, historic root two to the vet hospital across town. And she gets a shot of chemicals and then the next day she we give her pills in the morning. Although every week it's been different. We thought last week we had settled on a routine where we get some dog food some wet dog food she likes and put the pills in. And she ended up last week. This week, now we're back to struggling with her begging her praying. I hated it. Frank God, cat food. Mabel loves cat food, and I'll do what it takes. I don't care. Grant, they literally cat food is like eating potato chips for a dog. The vet has said that..

"Guess but let's just be clear. America was in this war for twenty years. And i think any effort unwind that any effort to bring our troops out any effort to end. Our military presence in afghanistan was going to be filled with heartbreaking scenes and difficulties that i think the administration's manage that as well as it could be managed under the circumstances we were placed in the management class. You see managerial. Ism is a philosophy that has ruled. Dc over the last one hundred years but they're not even good at managing things. So here's a very basic question. And every republican needs to repeat this remember we have to give republicans clear instructions because republicans are all over the place yet. We got republicans literally in afghanistan. Right now we got republicans negotiating infrastructure. We're kind of a mess. Okay yet lindsey graham. Who's drafting up invasion. Plans of laos. I'm not sure why i'm kidding. That's a joke okay. Got him and john. Bolton fan fantasizing about a ground invasion to reinvade kabul again we could restart are twenty or occupation that liz. Cheney who just bought a new drum of war bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-ba to go to war soon the profits are going to flow republicans needed. Just say one thing. it's so simple. Who was in charge. And who made the decision and what was the process of the decision to get eighty five billion dollars in weapons to the taliban. That's it that's the whole thing also abandoning americans and thirteen marines getting bog airbase. Those are important too but the thing that is the. It's the tell it is. The revealing fact is who made the decision to give the weapons to the taliban. I haven't on high authority. According to somebody. I talked to in the intelligence apparatus that every other country destroyed their weapons except the united states at bog airbase. We just left them. We abandoned them. How's that possible. You see the weapons it is the thread that unravels the entire sweater. It is the open point. It is the weak point now. Why is that because this is against customary military protocol. When we left iraq we destroyed almost all of our weapons not all of them some got in the hands of isis but we destroyed a lot in fact. I remember when we withdraw iraq. This was kind of pre twitter. There were videos circulating and it really made americans angry of us destroying weapons and people say well. Why don't you bring them back. I that's far too logical for some of the people that run our government. But you're right. We should bring them back some of them. You can't because logistics reasons and wait and cargo but at least destroy them so a bad guy doesn't come along and get them so let's do clot fifty we're biden calls and afghanistan withdrawal in extraordinary success so according to him. An extraordinary success is giving black. Hawk helicopters night-vision goggles and hundreds of thousands of weapons to people who hate us and killed americans. Click fifty no nation. No nation has ever done anything like it in all history. The only the united states at the capacity and the will to do it and we did it today. Extraordinary success of this mission was due to the incredible skill bravely and selfless courage of. What is he talking about. How the media so dishonest imagine being a reporter for pick publication bloomberg. and you. Listen to this country's ever done anything like this. Just kind of like fall into the hypnosis. It's what it is. Joe biden missed his call at some sort of traveling carnival going to dubuque iowa hypnotized kids for a couple of a couple minutes. No countries ever done anything like this. What are you talking about. you mean. No countries have screwed up a withdrawal as badly as this since that we strew screwed up withdrawal as badly as saigon thirteen marines or killed and we just hand over the weapons to the other side. Eric trump said something very wise. He said we need a refund. As a nation and all the supplies we left and vehicles behind in afghanistan play cut forty six so we as americans are paying thirty eight percent tax this federal taxes so we can arm people that detest our way of life. That who eight who. We are as americans who hate christianity who our way of life. I feel like we're getting ripped off every single day. And then you see him looking at his watch. We want a refund as a nation. This guy is a disaster. He's literally flushing the respect of our country down the tubes. He's embarrassing our flag. These embarrassing everything that we stand for as it greatest contract earth an atom ngos ski from open. The books dot com has some breaking news. Open the books. Dot com biden officials recently directed federal agencies to scrub their websites of official reports detailing the eighty two point nine million billion dollars in military equipment and training provided to afghan security forces. You hear that. They're scrubbing the servers. Everybody they're doing. The hillary clinton they're taken out hammers and they're destroying the records of the eighty three billion dollars in military equipment. This is why. I love adam angie with what he does at open. The book is transparency. Crusader so he files. All the foia request to find out where this money goes. Because you're republican. Congressman are too busy negotiating infrastructure. Joe biden and keeping the southern borders wide open and so adamant has published this. The report is on open. The books dot com and our government just wiped all the websites but thankfully opened. The book still has records of all that because they filed the reports early enough. Do you know if it wasn't for these outside groups that do this work. All these reports would be gone so for example. The government accountability office re posted audit of the us military provided equipment. It was just removed. The special investigator general for afghanistan reconstruction just remove the audit of a sudden. You go through this you say. What are they trying to hide. I know what they're trying to hide. They're trying to hide all of the foreign weapon. All the weapons that we gave to our foreign adversaries. Twenty years ago our world changed. We lost thousands of lives that horrific morning in september over the last twenty years with chaos ensuing brave men and women in our first responder communities entered the call and rushed into the unknown as we watched in horror as the morning unfolded before our very eyes. Three hundred forty. Three firefighters lost their lives that day and almost all our first responders who answered that call have perished sense. We here at the charlie. Kirk show are proud to partner with minute. Men coffee a company that is unapologetically patriotic and constitutionally based who honors all our men and women who serve and have served in the amazing country that we call home the morning of september twelfth america came together as one on our all who lost their lives that day and in the days and weeks and years to come i'm excited to announce that the official coffee provider for this program. Minutemen coffee is proud to.

"Is out, you know Mitch McConnell in the Senate can stop all this. It just takes one party in one chamber to put the brakes on it. They have vowed not to pass or take up any legislation with Republican votes in the Senate. They need 60 votes on on the infrastructure bill and most other things. And so McConnell can stop your marks in the Senate, and so far there is rhetoric has been great. And you know, so actions speak louder than words. Adam Angie Esky. His website, which I encourage everybody to check out is called open the books dot com the size of this research project that Adam and his team have engaged in it can't be overstated his chest remarkable how much data they have from essentially every level of government in the United States. Let's talk a little bit about earmarks. You know If I go on your website, for example, I can I can see Proposed earmarks by location. I click on Denver and I get Congresswoman Diana to get and not surprising that she would have lots of your marks. She's one of the you know, sort of older left wing members of Congress. But what bothers me so much about this stuff. I want to talk about this. Clearly, It's not that I think that everything she thinks is important is unimportant. Some of these things could be quite important. It's just that they have no business at all being funded by the federal government. I see one in her list. The stay in hotel she wants $2 million from the federal government. I assume you probably looked at some other Colorado stuff for our conversation today. Well, you know, obviously, I think you guys have seven members of Congress for Democrats, three Republicans. The, uh, the last time we looked at it on a snapshot, and they're continuing, adding to it. The proposed earmarks from the four Democrats in Congress totaled $110,000,000,110 million. The three Republicans, thankfully there leading on the issues $0. They have proposed $0 between your three members should be lauded for their leadership. They're staying off. This earmark favor factory that Pelosi's created to try to pick off their votes. It's the right thing to do Look Republicans, So you got Don young. He's the Dean self described dean of the U. S house, which means he's been there. The longest people have been there. Since 1973 is from Alaska. He's still argues that the bridge to nowhere it was a good use of taxpayer money. Should have been built on an earmark. That was the earmark used by Coburn is the halo example. To get rid of earmarks. Don young ones. $19 million of your money to build a local fire station in Kodiak, Alaska. And what he needs to understand. Oh, my God, that local projects of marriage should be built and funded locally, not out of Washington, D C right. Right. I mean, I give you another example from Joni Goose bought Democratic Congressman here represents the second Congressional District, which Boulder and Fort Collins and parts of Summit County so he wants a million dollars for search and rescue training and in a vehicle storage facility for Summit County. It is a perfect example of a project that is probably worthy but has nothing to do with the federal government. And all of these things are just burdening my kids. Right My my hype going into high school now each kids I'm with With national debt that they're probably going to have to pay back or or have the value of whatever they end up earning, being diminished by the federal government, monetizing the debt to pay for stuff. Like this. Another one for Boulder Strong resource Center. $271,000. Look, I'm sure it's a very worthy project, but it should be funded by the state and local government. What am I missing here? Adam? No, you've you've got it, Ross. So these projects you know good people can debate whether their waste or not, they can debate whether taxpayers across the country should be funding your local projects. But here's what we can all agree on. It's all borrowed every single dime. What you talked about is borrowed from our future on our national debt. And and so, look, you know, under Obama. We started out with $10 Trillion of national debt. After eight years. It was 18 trillion Mhm. Four years at Trump International Pandemic. It went from 18 Trillion to 28 Trillion, and now under Biden, that's going north. Very rapidly of $35. Trillion Stop, Stop spending our money. So here's three points, everybody listening. Can you know this is why the national debt is so important because first off everything you own in the short term will be worth less. Because of inflation. And secondly, you're going to have to work harder because to pay off the national debt taxes are going up, and the third thing is That not only what you own and what you work for, You know that we just described, but, um Uh, you know every, uh, the your your savings, your assets currently will be worth less in the short run. Yeah. Absolutely, you know, with all these things that should be funded by the state and local government. The thing is, if if they were brought here so that people could see what the you know, see, hear and learn about what the issue is. Then the citizens of Colorado could have an honest debate about Is this something we want to fund or not? Right? Is this do we do we want to fund Commerce City Quiet zones for $615,000, as proposed by representative Ed Perlmutter, representing our seventh congressional district. Is that a good use of $615,000, but when they get to stuff it in the federal budget You know, except for the fact that you're out there doing this work nobody would know. And it would all just get mixed into this big stew of the federal budget in the federal debt and deficit. Which in a way frankly, the debt and deficit are getting. The numbers are getting so large that actually think they're becoming incomprehensible to people which in a way makes it easier to make them bigger. That's right. And so, you know, you got number pet projects that we identified. You got Andre Carson. He's a Democrat out of Indiana. He literally He put this in their $5000 earmarked to purchase quote unquote his words Santa gifts for seniors in a small town of Beech Grove, Indiana. I guess every day's Christmas for these people in the federal budget that Christmas tree of goodies to hand out even $5000. To purchase gifts. Santa gifts Wow. What do we do about it? 250,000 to expand the offerings at the Michelle Obama library..
