Pence seeks 'common sense' Social Security, Medicare reform
"Former vice president Mike Pence is still in the category of Republicans described as mulling a 2024 presidential bid, but he is laying out the policy approaches he'd like to see. I'm Ben Thomas, with this latest comments, common sense, and compassionate solutions. That's what Mike Pence says it'll take to reform entitlement programs in the nation's debt burden. Speaking to students at Washington and Lee university, the former vice president suggested changes are needed to social security and Medicare. As they closed in on projected and solvency dates. And while not offering specifics, he asserted, we can introduce common sense reforms that will never touch anyone who is in retirement or anyone who will retire in the next 25 years. The Pence said it will take courage to do it in the support of the current generation of young adults. Many leading Republicans, including Donald Trump, have recently signaled unwillingness to touch entitlement programs that the party has a history of threatening them. I'm Ben Thomas

Grand Jury to Hear Another Witness Before Possible Trump Indictment
"News is reporting that the indictment will not happen today that there is another witness to go before the grand jury on Wednesday tomorrow. And so now the talk is that this may not happen until next week. I want to suggest that the former president has once again gotten so deep inside the heads of his opponents. They are spitting they are seething. This is the moment that they wanted to see. They have long dreamed of this president being led in handcuffs somewhere. I have a longtime friend. He's a very good person. He's just horribly misguided politically, but he has often talked about, well, this is the thing, right? They're going to go to The White House when Trump was in office. They're going to go to The White House. They're going to lead him out in cuffs. They just can not possibly get past the hatred they have for this individual. Simply because he had the audacity to support the American people and put government back in the hands of the people as opposed to the swamp monsters in Washington. This is all about power, and so they are going to try to misuse prosecutorial power to have him indicted. Well, again, the prosecutor there is a political hack. He ran on a campaign of saying, I'll get Trump even though others haven't.

Why America's Navy Is No Longer Best in the Sea
"Back in America, as I said the most important thing. Not just to the Hugh Hewitt show audience, but to the world is that the communist Chinese party had Xi Jinping. The strong man, the totalitarian ruler of all of China, head of the Chinese Communist Party has been in Moscow for two days, meeting whether he calls his junior partner Putin, it reminds you of Hitler and Mussolini, if you know your history in 39 getting together, that's why I asked doctor Hendricks to come on today, Jerry Hendricks will be on an hour three to discuss his brand new essay in the Atlantic, which is really caught the attention of Washington D.C.. Because the Atlantic is the last magazine that many people read in America in hardcover copy form. And the title of the article is the age of American naval dominance is over. The subheading is the United States has seated the oceans to its enemies. We can no longer take freedom of the seas for granted. And this is sort of something I talk about a lot for the last, I don't know, ten years. When Donald Trump was running and promising a 355 ship navy, that didn't come about the biggest failure of the Trump years was the failure to get the shipyards expanded up and running, getting a navy plan. And the key facts that I'll be talking about with doctor hendrickson an hour three is that the United States had 6700 chips at sea at the end of World War II. By the end of Eisenhower administration, we were down to a thousand, which is consistent with the Cold War, and then it fell and fell and fell until regular arrived and rebuilt the navy to 590 ships that had the deterrent effect on the Soviet Union. It fell apart. And then in our wisdom, we thought the end of history had arrived and we are now at 271 ships afloat. And doctor Hendricks says, the complications of that, the implications of that are so profound that people don't even see the obvious in front of them. So I'm

And the U.S. banking system remains sound. Yellen says the Biden administration acted quickly to protect the broader system and is ready to do it again if needed. Similar actions could be warranted if smaller institutions suffered deposit runs that pose the risk of contagion. Yellen's remarks come as the Federal Reserve meets to decide whether to boost interest rates again, as it weighs both banking concerns and stubbornly high inflation, Sagar, Meghani, Washington.

Army of lobbyists helped water down banking regulations
"Recent bank collapses that prompted a federal rescue are a reminder of the power still held by Washington lobbyists. It seemed like a good idea at the time, in 2018 Republicans working with president Trump to slash bank regulations joined forces with red state Democrats facing grim reelection prospects. The group passed a bill that rolled back portions of the 2010 Dodd Frank law. The bill was marketed as a form of relief for overburdened community banks, but it also lifted the threshold for strict oversight and mandatory stress testing of large mid sized banks, it is now being blamed for contributing to the collapse of Silicon Valley bank and signature bank whose executives lobbied for the Bill, the effort drew an army of more than a thousand lobbyists, companies and trade groups specifically mentioning the legislation spent more than $400 million in 2017 and 2018, according to an Associated Press analysis, Americans for financial reform, a watchdog group says we can draw a direct line between the deregulation driven by the bank lobby, and the chaos of the last few weeks.

Alvin Bragg Prefers Releasing Real Criminals to Commit Crimes Again
"And see a little bit of Tucker Carlson's reporting last night on what this really dastardly district attorney has been doing from day one when he became district attorney out of New York City. Even as Bragg has been single mindedly focused bragga graduate of Harvard college, on Donald Trump and his crimes sending money to a porn star, he has been not only ignoring real crimes, but downgrading felonies to misdemeanors and letting actual violent criminals out of jail as quickly as possible. On his first day in office, first day, Bragg consistent with the ideas of the man who paid for his campaign, George Soros issued a memo explaining his office will quote not seek a sentence except in cases involving homicides, economic crimes, and a small number of felonies. That was great news for people who commit violent felonies, including rapists like Justin Washington, Washington struck a deal with Bragg that allowed him to serve just 30 days in jail under the theory that his rape was really just second degree coercion. So he got out quickly and when he did police say this same man sexually attacked 5 other people in The Bronx. He even tried to rape a homeless woman at ten in the morning. Okay. So in another case, a career criminal who was arrested three times in four months for serious crimes, including assault and aggravated harassment, skipped court. And when police finally found him and hauled him to court, Bragg's Bragg's office let him go in January of last year. Guess what he did when he got out? He murdered a woman.

US speeds up Abrams tank delivery to Ukraine war zone
"The U.S. is speeding up its delivery of Abrams tanks to Ukraine. The original plan was to send newer versions of the Abrams, which could have taken a year or two to build and ship officials tell the AP The Pentagon will instead send a refurbished older model already in army stocks. They'll be easier for Ukrainian troops to learn to use and maintain, and could arrive in the war zone much sooner with the goal being 8 to ten months. Ukrainian leaders had been pushing for the Abrams, a battlefield workhorse for more than three decades. The Biden administration insisted for months the tanks were too complicated to maintain and repair, but then announced in January, it would send them. Sagar Meghani, Washington.

According to Jordan, Jim Jordan representative Jim Jordan. Of course, Trump said over the weekend that he expects to be indicted Tuesday, which would be tomorrow, but neither Briggs nor his office has confirmed the statement.

Biden issues first veto, taking on new Republican House
"President Biden has lobbed the first shot of what's to be a bigger battle with the Republican led house. The president's issued his first veto, looking to kill a GOP author Bill that would have effectively reinstated a Trump era ban on federal retirement plan managers, considering things like climate change when making investment decisions. The veto is likely to stand and is an early sign of how the president will deal with House Republicans intent on undoing parts of his policy legacy, but it also serves as an olive branch of sorts to environmentalists who were upset by the administration's recent approval of a massive oil drilling project in Alaska.

"Emerald, thanks for joining us. I'm happy to be here. It's really good to talk with you. Yeah, of course. I'm so excited to get your thoughts on this because I know that this whole weekend has been crazy ever since Trump truth that he might be arrested on Tuesday. And of course, everyone has been figure out, is this going to happen tomorrow? Is this going to happen later this week? I've seen different reports. Some people are saying that because there's another witness coming forth today that maybe it won't happen tomorrow. But either way, what was kind of your reaction to seeing this news over the weekend? Well, not shocking for me. I've been saying since last year that the plan ultimately for Democrats, whether it's the Biden DoJ at the federal level, or you've got the states that are also New York, which we're seeing with Alvin Bragg, and then Georgia down in county, the district attorney down there, trying to arrest Trump. We knew it was coming. Now, am I a little bit surprised that it can be a state level charge before the actual federal charges from the DoJ? Yeah, I'm a little bit surprised by that, 'cause I'll be honest, I've been talking to people since early last year within the DoJ that are not exact exactly Biden activists like the majority of the DoJ, then that is ultimately the goal under Merrick Garland. They've been looking at a way to arrest Donald Trump. There was some thought that it would even come on federal charges before January. There was some talk before the midterm elections, but I don't think they quite have it lined up. So the real question is here, I think, is how involved is the federal level. The DoJ in Washington D.C. with this state level charge.

I led the along with two other members are, uh, corn break to Ardmore in 2000 and three I know exactly what they're going through. But the way you do this is what matters is those people who are not on the floor as long as the 900 people on the floor action cannot happen. I'm in the numbers that prevent the, uh, a quorum from being present. That is, unless I mean, if you're if you're still in the state of Texas House speaker did feeling who by the way we invited to join us on today's show, but did not hear back from his office by Showtime, he says the Texas House will use every available resource under the Texas Constitution.

We erected that popular all on the National Mall in Washington D C adjacent to the reflecting pool, and it was amazing that weekend as you could imagine many people go to D. C.

Do you think this virtual option could raise even more awareness for this initiative? Because people will get to participate in it that maybe wouldn't be able to make it to Washington, D C and go to the National Mall where the actual Yusa Poppy Wall of honor is located. That's a great question on the short answer is, Yeah, I think that if anything this last year has taught us that reaching out virtually is something that is that perversely adopted it well received and should continue Just what every point we can only impact so many people at a specific location for a specific amount of time. Like by amplifying it in digital channels, like Poppaea memory dot com or via social media and sharing were able to reach so many more people and include them in remembering. I think that we will continue to do it both virtually but resume the in person opportunity as well in the future.

I don't know how they're gonna find out who did it. They're going to go over tapes and everything else and find out But, yeah, I mean, somebody shot the person and they can and they can't claim self defense here. You're right. They can't So obviously this is something accidental shooting because of fear. I'm so we basically have Ah, George Floyd all over again. Right? Only this one.

I'm way don't need to get another job and I'm just making a comparison argument. I'm telling you, you're jumping the gun here because unless we find an assailant Unless we know that situation. I mean, George Floyd was obviously something that you know you're looking at going. How is this happening? I was this guy getting need in the neck by some cop. This is something that happened in in a in a moment. That was tense. And you're right. There was no justification for shooting this girl. From what I saw no justification at all. So you know, now we gotta find out who the assailant was. Who the Who wasn't the did the deed and then we go there. Right. And and, of course, the major media don't make any mention of it whatsoever. They're not curious at all they say is not. Yeah, he says, and some woman got shot and now back to you, you know they don't They don't go into right. They don't go in spirit at all. You're right now.

Whether it's from within without a combination of the two it if you want to call it a civil war. It's an unlawful group attacking us. Whereas the you find it punctuated, scented the other way around in the major media. They would say that I don't I don't see it that way at all. They're not. They didn't do that. I mean, if it's if it's if it's a move to a civil war that they failed because we're not. We're not having a civil war here. I don't think that was an intention. Off these people in Washington. I think they wanted to make their point. They made their point. But there was no end result from it because it was completely it was completely defused. Right. I agree with you. But what I'm saying is that we need to make sure and protect that ground And don't allow people to. You know, whomever the media who never to say anything about that.
