Allen Jackson NOW | Allen Jackson: Dangerous Politics | Allen Jackson Now | March 27, 2026
  • Good evening and welcome to nashville.
  • 00:00:04.463 --> 00:00:06.398
  • I'm alan jackson.
  • 00:00:06.398 --> 00:00:07.766
  • We're going to begin tonight with a very troubling fact.
  • 00:00:07.766 --> 00:00:10.902
  • A majority of the democratic party is now consistently
  • 00:00:10.902 --> 00:00:14.139
  • On the side of a minority of the american people.
  • 00:00:14.139 --> 00:00:17.509
  • Whether it's because they feel they have to fight everything
  • 00:00:17.509 --> 00:00:19.678
  • President trump is trying to accomplish,
  • 00:00:19.678 --> 00:00:21.847
  • Or because they've moved deeper
  • 00:00:21.847 --> 00:00:23.315
  • In the direction of the far left wing.
  • 00:00:23.315 --> 00:00:25.383
  • It's a troubling sign.
  • 00:00:25.383 --> 00:00:27.152
  • Well, they're openly fighting against the u.s.
  • 00:00:27.152 --> 00:00:29.588
  • Military as it shutting down iran's terrorist regime.
  • 00:00:29.588 --> 00:00:33.024
  • Even though iran has killed a thousand americans
  • 00:00:33.024 --> 00:00:35.527
  • And was on its way
  • 00:00:35.527 --> 00:00:36.628
  • To pointing nuclear weapons at the united states.
  • 00:00:36.628 --> 00:00:39.331
  • Their antics,
  • 00:00:39.331 --> 00:00:40.599
  • Even as the men and women who work
  • 00:00:40.599 --> 00:00:42.067
  • There are removing some very bad people
  • 00:00:42.067 --> 00:00:44.536
  • Who live and hide in our neighborhoods, killing,
  • 00:00:44.536 --> 00:00:47.405
  • Raping young women and stealing at random.
  • 00:00:47.405 --> 00:00:50.509
  • And they're refusing to clear the paychecks.
  • 00:00:50.509 --> 00:00:52.577
  • For those who work at the department of homeland security.
  • 00:00:52.577 --> 00:00:55.714
  • The people who put their own lives in danger to keep us safe.
  • 00:00:55.714 --> 00:01:00.185
  • Remember, tsa was formed right after 911, and today
  • 00:01:00.185 --> 00:01:03.722
  • They're working without pay.
  • 00:01:03.722 --> 00:01:05.157
  • Does the democratic leadership consider
  • 00:01:05.957 --> 00:01:07.893
  • The signals they're sending to those who want to do us harm?
  • 00:01:07.893 --> 00:01:11.196
  • The people who call us
  • 00:01:11.196 --> 00:01:12.130
  • The great satan and chant death to america.
  • 00:01:12.130 --> 00:01:15.167
  • Or are they just looking the other way, knowing
  • 00:01:15.167 --> 00:01:17.169
  • That there are an unknown number of terror groups
  • 00:01:17.169 --> 00:01:19.538
  • Walking freely around our cities and neighborhoods?
  • 00:01:19.538 --> 00:01:22.841
  • The republican house speaker put it this way.
  • 00:01:22.841 --> 00:01:25.777
  • They shut down the third largest department
  • 00:01:25.777 --> 00:01:28.580
  • Of the federal government.
  • 00:01:28.580 --> 00:01:29.781
  • It has ten agencies underneath it, 260,000 plus employees.
  • 00:01:29.781 --> 00:01:34.519
  • And each of those agencies have one common denominator.
  • 00:01:34.519 --> 00:01:37.222
  • As the name implies, they are to keep the homeland secure.
  • 00:01:37.222 --> 00:01:40.725
  • Congressional democrats have held our airports
  • 00:01:40.725 --> 00:01:42.861
  • Tsa, fema, the coast guard, so many critical functions
  • 00:01:42.861 --> 00:01:45.964
  • Of our government.
  • 00:01:45.964 --> 00:01:46.898
  • We're talking about anti bioterrorism,
  • 00:01:46.898 --> 00:01:50.335
  • Matters and issues.
  • 00:01:50.802 --> 00:01:52.003
  • You're talking about cyber security, all these things.
  • 00:01:52.003 --> 00:01:54.906
  • They are holding the government hostage.
  • 00:01:54.906 --> 00:01:57.776
  • There was a time when you could book a flight,
  • 00:01:58.743 --> 00:02:00.912
  • Parked the car and walk right up to the gate with your wife,
  • 00:02:00.912 --> 00:02:04.182
  • Your kids and your carry on bags until hijackings started
  • 00:02:04.182 --> 00:02:07.953
  • In the 1970s.
  • 00:02:07.953 --> 00:02:09.421
  • We relied on our government to fix that,
  • 00:02:09.421 --> 00:02:11.323
  • And we're glad they did.
  • 00:02:11.323 --> 00:02:12.524
  • But over time, more security has been added as knives
  • 00:02:12.524 --> 00:02:15.427
  • And guns are being smuggled on board.
  • 00:02:15.427 --> 00:02:17.062
  • Bombs were hidden in checked baggage.
  • 00:02:17.062 --> 00:02:19.231
  • Even ignition devices were put in shoes.
  • 00:02:19.231 --> 00:02:22.267
  • The terrorists tried everything, and all along the way
  • 00:02:22.267 --> 00:02:24.936
  • The security folks, they kept us safe.
  • 00:02:24.936 --> 00:02:27.973
  • So how is it that the democrats went from safety for all
  • 00:02:27.973 --> 00:02:31.509
  • To not even paying tsa employees today?
  • 00:02:31.509 --> 00:02:34.646
  • And undermining the president for taking out the terrorist
  • 00:02:34.646 --> 00:02:37.249
  • In the middle east,
  • 00:02:37.249 --> 00:02:38.316
  • And defending people who throw things
  • 00:02:38.316 --> 00:02:40.185
  • At ice agents and spit on them when they're capturing killers.
  • 00:02:40.185 --> 00:02:44.723
  • Well, people
  • 00:02:45.056 --> 00:02:46.324
  • Often ask me, what's the church going to do about this or that?
  • 00:02:46.324 --> 00:02:49.327
  • Well, the reality is there's
  • 00:02:49.327 --> 00:02:50.528
  • No magical place where the church lives, folks.
  • 00:02:50.528 --> 00:02:52.797
  • It's us.
  • 00:02:52.797 --> 00:02:54.299
  • So when you want to ask that question, i'll tell you.
  • 00:02:54.299 --> 00:02:56.568
  • The quickest way to get to an answer
  • 00:02:56.568 --> 00:02:58.837
  • Is to go find a mirror and ask yourself what you're
  • 00:02:58.837 --> 00:03:01.506
  • Going to do about it,
  • 00:03:01.506 --> 00:03:02.941
  • And then listen very carefully for the answer,
  • 00:03:02.941 --> 00:03:05.877
  • Because what you hear will have a great deal to do
  • 00:03:05.877 --> 00:03:08.146
  • With what the church
  • 00:03:08.146 --> 00:03:09.047
  • Is going to do about whatever the issue is.
  • 00:03:09.047 --> 00:03:12.250
  • See, the bible is a book that describes
  • 00:03:12.250 --> 00:03:13.918
  • Spiritual conflict, from the opening
  • 00:03:13.918 --> 00:03:15.553
  • Chapters of genesis
  • 00:03:15.553 --> 00:03:16.888
  • To the concluding chapters of the book of revelation.
  • 00:03:16.888 --> 00:03:19.691
  • We shouldn't imagine that conflict stopped in antiquity.
  • 00:03:19.691 --> 00:03:23.128
  • We shouldn't imagine that
  • 00:03:23.128 --> 00:03:24.129
  • When jesus came to god. stop being interested
  • 00:03:24.129 --> 00:03:26.631
  • In the corporate behavior of his people.
  • 00:03:26.631 --> 00:03:29.768
  • What happens in the spiritual
  • 00:03:29.768 --> 00:03:31.002
  • Realm has a tremendous impact on what's happening in the earth.
  • 00:03:31.002 --> 00:03:34.806
  • If you only understand your current events
  • 00:03:34.806 --> 00:03:36.841
  • From the basis of social or economic patterns
  • 00:03:36.841 --> 00:03:39.577
  • Or conflicts between nation states,
  • 00:03:39.577 --> 00:03:41.880
  • You have an incomplete perspective.
  • 00:03:41.880 --> 00:03:44.382
  • I'm not saying that those factors are true or real,
  • 00:03:44.382 --> 00:03:46.885
  • That they aren't powerful.
  • 00:03:46.885 --> 00:03:48.386
  • But i am suggesting that as christ followers,
  • 00:03:48.386 --> 00:03:50.955
  • We must begin with the premise that spiritual forces shape
  • 00:03:50.955 --> 00:03:54.526
  • Our world.
  • 00:03:54.526 --> 00:03:55.994
  • The bible talks about god directing the course of nations
  • 00:03:55.994 --> 00:03:59.264
  • That he raises up leaders and he puts them down.
  • 00:03:59.264 --> 00:04:02.033
  • And for far too long, the church has been far more secular
  • 00:04:02.033 --> 00:04:05.170
  • With our understanding of world events.
  • 00:04:05.170 --> 00:04:07.605
  • We've imagined that our spiritual role was expressed
  • 00:04:07.605 --> 00:04:10.008
  • Primarily in a ballot box or in a political campaign.
  • 00:04:10.008 --> 00:04:14.079
  • Well, i do think you should participate in the process.
  • 00:04:14.079 --> 00:04:16.181
  • I'm not opposed to that.
  • 00:04:16.181 --> 00:04:17.782
  • But your spiritual life shapes those things long before you
  • 00:04:17.782 --> 00:04:21.152
  • Ever cast a vote
  • 00:04:21.152 --> 00:04:22.454
  • Regarding the candidates that
  • 00:04:23.088 --> 00:04:24.222
  • Rise up and those candidates who don't.
  • 00:04:24.222 --> 00:04:26.524
  • The church
  • 00:04:26.524 --> 00:04:27.726
  • Is a spiritual force in the world is the difference maker.
  • 00:04:27.726 --> 00:04:30.428
  • I believe
  • 00:04:30.729 --> 00:04:31.996
  • God will either give us leaders that will bring his best to us,
  • 00:04:31.996 --> 00:04:34.232
  • Or he'll give us leaders who bring his punishment to us
  • 00:04:34.232 --> 00:04:37.302
  • As the community of faith.
  • 00:04:37.302 --> 00:04:38.670
  • We have a biblical assignment.
  • 00:04:38.670 --> 00:04:40.171
  • If we don't like the leadership we have in the world,
  • 00:04:40.171 --> 00:04:42.073
  • In which we live, a great deal of that responsibility.
  • 00:04:42.073 --> 00:04:44.943
  • It falls at the doorstep of the church.
  • 00:04:44.943 --> 00:04:47.645
  • Historically, as a nation,
  • 00:04:47.645 --> 00:04:49.147
  • We lived in a place
  • 00:04:49.147 --> 00:04:50.382
  • Where the fabric of our culture has been predominantly knit
  • 00:04:50.382 --> 00:04:53.485
  • Together from a biblical worldview.
  • 00:04:53.485 --> 00:04:55.687
  • But that has changed and rapidly.
  • 00:04:55.687 --> 00:04:57.622
  • And with that change.
  • 00:04:57.622 --> 00:04:58.656
  • So change stability and security.
  • 00:04:58.656 --> 00:05:01.025
  • So change things like freedom of speech, law
  • 00:05:01.025 --> 00:05:03.795
  • And order, service and sacrifice.
  • 00:05:03.795 --> 00:05:07.132
  • You see all those things emerge from a biblical worldview.
  • 00:05:07.132 --> 00:05:09.667
  • And the further we step away from a biblical worldview,
  • 00:05:09.667 --> 00:05:12.404
  • The further we will live from those realities
  • 00:05:12.404 --> 00:05:14.606
  • That have caused our nation to prosper.
  • 00:05:14.606 --> 00:05:17.442
  • That's very common in the american church, to say
  • 00:05:17.442 --> 00:05:19.411
  • That inclusivity and tolerance are primary biblical values.
  • 00:05:19.411 --> 00:05:24.015
  • But scripture reveals that jesus was and continues
  • 00:05:24.015 --> 00:05:27.919
  • To not be tolerant of disobedience.
  • 00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:31.022
  • He is not inclusive of ungodliness.
  • 00:05:31.022 --> 00:05:34.025
  • Frankly, we spent decades making friends with evil.
  • 00:05:34.025 --> 00:05:37.362
  • But i have good news. we can change.
  • 00:05:37.362 --> 00:05:39.497
  • We can be different.
  • 00:05:39.497 --> 00:05:40.565
  • We can choose to tell the truth.
  • 00:05:40.565 --> 00:05:42.534
  • Let's start in our homes, changing the world.
  • 00:05:42.534 --> 00:05:45.036
  • It begins at our kitchen table.
  • 00:05:45.036 --> 00:05:46.671
  • Then it's going to extend into our circles of influence.
  • 00:05:46.671 --> 00:05:49.674
  • Let's have the courage to say
  • 00:05:49.674 --> 00:05:51.009
  • Jesus is unique,
  • 00:05:51.009 --> 00:05:52.043
  • That he brings something unique to human lives.
  • 00:05:52.043 --> 00:05:54.979
  • I believe wholeheartedly that jesus is the answer for
  • 00:05:54.979 --> 00:05:58.249
  • Our world today.
  • 00:05:58.249 --> 00:06:00.185
  • It's obviously a critical time in our country's history,
  • 00:06:00.185 --> 00:06:02.587
  • And fortunately, we have people in leadership
  • 00:06:02.587 --> 00:06:04.556
  • Positions around the country
  • 00:06:04.556 --> 00:06:06.191
  • Who know the history and who know right from wrong.
  • 00:06:06.191 --> 00:06:08.860
  • In a moment, we'll be joined by a republican
  • 00:06:08.860 --> 00:06:10.995
  • From the house of representatives, beth van dyne.
  • 00:06:10.995 --> 00:06:14.466
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:06:14.466 --> 00:06:22.004
  • I'll be right back.
  • 00:06:22.004 --> 00:06:26.912
  • Well, it's
  • 00:06:27.213 --> 00:06:28.013
  • Been a busy time on capitol hill,
  • 00:06:28.013 --> 00:06:29.448
  • And from all sides,
  • 00:06:29.448 --> 00:06:30.716
  • The democrats are continuing to play with fire.
  • 00:06:30.716 --> 00:06:33.552
  • The good news is that they're up
  • 00:06:33.552 --> 00:06:35.120
  • Against a majority of responsible,
  • 00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:37.022
  • Commonsense conservatives,
  • 00:06:37.022 --> 00:06:38.757
  • Including our guest tonight, congresswoman beth van dike.
  • 00:06:38.757 --> 00:06:41.927
  • Welcome to our show.
  • 00:06:41.927 --> 00:06:43.662
  • Thank you very much.
  • 00:06:43.662 --> 00:06:44.597
  • Glad to be here.
  • 00:06:44.597 --> 00:06:45.898
  • Well, i began by making the point
  • 00:06:45.898 --> 00:06:47.433
  • That the trump derangement has gotten so bad
  • 00:06:47.433 --> 00:06:49.768
  • That the democrats have now found themselves regularly
  • 00:06:49.768 --> 00:06:52.705
  • Siding with terrorists.
  • 00:06:52.705 --> 00:06:54.507
  • This is far more than politics now.
  • 00:06:54.507 --> 00:06:56.342
  • It's putting the american people in danger.
  • 00:06:56.342 --> 00:06:58.644
  • Are they actually rooting for our country to lose?
  • 00:06:58.644 --> 00:07:01.347
  • It would seem so.
  • 00:07:01.780 --> 00:07:02.848
  • And this is not anything new.
  • 00:07:02.848 --> 00:07:04.083
  • I mean, just a few years ago, there were there were,
  • 00:07:04.083 --> 00:07:06.685
  • You know, siding with criminals
  • 00:07:06.685 --> 00:07:08.254
  • In trying to get police defunded.
  • 00:07:08.254 --> 00:07:10.055
  • This is just an extension of that.
  • 00:07:10.055 --> 00:07:12.024
  • But you got to ask yourself, why are they,
  • 00:07:12.024 --> 00:07:15.027
  • Supporting illegal immigrants over u.s.
  • 00:07:15.027 --> 00:07:17.196
  • Citizens?
  • 00:07:17.196 --> 00:07:18.097
  • The illegal immigrant at this point in
  • 00:07:18.097 --> 00:07:19.465
  • Time is a democrat's best friend. why?
  • 00:07:19.465 --> 00:07:22.268
  • Because they are relying
  • 00:07:22.268 --> 00:07:23.536
  • On the 20 million illegal immigrants
  • 00:07:23.536 --> 00:07:25.804
  • That joe biden brought into this country
  • 00:07:25.804 --> 00:07:27.506
  • To add to be able to prop their population numbers up.
  • 00:07:27.506 --> 00:07:31.377
  • So they don't lose their congressional districts.
  • 00:07:31.377 --> 00:07:34.413
  • It's all based on population.
  • 00:07:34.413 --> 00:07:35.848
  • They want to have illegal immigrants
  • 00:07:35.848 --> 00:07:37.283
  • Counted on their population growth,
  • 00:07:37.283 --> 00:07:38.851
  • And that's what they're doing.
  • 00:07:38.851 --> 00:07:40.085
  • And hopefully,
  • 00:07:40.085 --> 00:07:40.986
  • And when you start looking at the fraud
  • 00:07:40.986 --> 00:07:42.388
  • That's going on around the country,
  • 00:07:42.388 --> 00:07:44.223
  • Where some of these folks
  • 00:07:44.223 --> 00:07:45.457
  • Are being able to get illegals social security numbers, ids,
  • 00:07:45.457 --> 00:07:48.460
  • I'm sure hopefully
  • 00:07:48.460 --> 00:07:49.562
  • They're hoping that they will vote democrat as well.
  • 00:07:49.562 --> 00:07:52.631
  • So this is all about keeping power.
  • 00:07:52.631 --> 00:07:54.934
  • This is all about maintaining seats.
  • 00:07:54.934 --> 00:07:57.469
  • And it has nothing to do with the safety
  • 00:07:57.469 --> 00:07:59.171
  • Or the best interest of the american public.
  • 00:07:59.171 --> 00:08:01.840
  • What did
  • 00:08:02.107 --> 00:08:03.242
  • You hear other members, especially democrats, saying,
  • 00:08:03.242 --> 00:08:05.578
  • When all saw the report that iran had fired off
  • 00:08:05.578 --> 00:08:08.380
  • Two missiles at our base in the indian ocean,
  • 00:08:08.380 --> 00:08:10.749
  • And they had the power to actually reach most of europe.
  • 00:08:10.749 --> 00:08:13.519
  • Was there any regret about not supporting the president?
  • 00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.488
  • It seems like they're even trying to support iran.
  • 00:08:16.488 --> 00:08:18.924
  • I mean, a lot of the folks
  • 00:08:18.924 --> 00:08:20.326
  • That i have heard were i listen to their
  • 00:08:20.326 --> 00:08:21.961
  • Their comments in the press are still very critical
  • 00:08:21.961 --> 00:08:24.730
  • Of the president and wondering why we had this war.
  • 00:08:24.730 --> 00:08:26.966
  • The fact is, is
  • 00:08:26.966 --> 00:08:27.866
  • I think everything the president has said
  • 00:08:27.866 --> 00:08:29.602
  • Has turned out to be correct.
  • 00:08:29.602 --> 00:08:31.403
  • We had had a country that was hell bent on getting
  • 00:08:31.403 --> 00:08:35.374
  • A nuclear weapon, who for nearly 50 years
  • 00:08:35.374 --> 00:08:38.477
  • Has decried the the u.s.
  • 00:08:38.477 --> 00:08:41.680
  • As the enemy, as the great devil,
  • 00:08:41.680 --> 00:08:44.617
  • And has wanted to do
  • 00:08:44.617 --> 00:08:45.718
  • Nothing more than to destroy us and our way of life?
  • 00:08:45.718 --> 00:08:48.487
  • This is a president who took,
  • 00:08:48.487 --> 00:08:50.689
  • You know, matters into his own hands
  • 00:08:50.689 --> 00:08:52.124
  • That other presidents
  • 00:08:52.124 --> 00:08:53.192
  • Had only threatened and he actually carried out.
  • 00:08:53.192 --> 00:08:56.061
  • And if you look at obama, if you look at biden,
  • 00:08:56.061 --> 00:08:57.997
  • All they did was give tens of billions of dollars to iran,
  • 00:08:57.997 --> 00:09:02.001
  • Then then went and helped fund terrorist activities
  • 00:09:02.001 --> 00:09:05.070
  • Against our own military, against our own allies.
  • 00:09:05.070 --> 00:09:08.273
  • And so,
  • 00:09:08.273 --> 00:09:09.008
  • Yeah, when you hear
  • 00:09:09.008 --> 00:09:10.109
  • My democrat colleagues sit here and be very critical
  • 00:09:10.109 --> 00:09:13.245
  • Of this war, i would say, you know, why is that?
  • 00:09:13.245 --> 00:09:16.815
  • And i think some of them just,
  • 00:09:16.815 --> 00:09:18.117
  • Suffer from trump derangement syndrome,
  • 00:09:18.117 --> 00:09:20.386
  • And they don't want to give a prisoner a win where wednesday
  • 00:09:20.386 --> 00:09:23.155
  • Is due.
  • 00:09:23.155 --> 00:09:24.089
  • And i wonder what the democrats were thinking
  • 00:09:24.990 --> 00:09:27.026
  • When they saw the pictures of the three young iranian men
  • 00:09:27.026 --> 00:09:29.928
  • Dressed in blue on the way to their hanging.
  • 00:09:29.928 --> 00:09:32.965
  • You know, or
  • 00:09:33.298 --> 00:09:34.333
  • When word spread that tens of thousands of others
  • 00:09:34.333 --> 00:09:35.634
  • Were shot to death for protesting.
  • 00:09:35.634 --> 00:09:37.870
  • If they're listening to the former cia director,
  • 00:09:37.870 --> 00:09:40.539
  • John brennan, maybe they think it's all made up.
  • 00:09:40.539 --> 00:09:43.575
  • Listen to how he talks about our president.
  • 00:09:43.575 --> 00:09:46.679
  • Well, i tend to believe iran more than i do.
  • 00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:48.647
  • That's true
  • 00:09:48.647 --> 00:09:49.848
  • Because he could not acknowledge the truth even when it is
  • 00:09:49.848 --> 00:09:53.085
  • He slapped in the face with it repeatedly.
  • 00:09:53.085 --> 00:09:55.554
  • And it's clear that, you know, he is flailing right now.
  • 00:09:55.554 --> 00:09:59.258
  • You know, of course, brennan is under investigation
  • 00:10:00.259 --> 00:10:02.361
  • For his role in the made up russia collusion fiasco.
  • 00:10:02.361 --> 00:10:05.164
  • So maybe that has something to do
  • 00:10:05.164 --> 00:10:06.365
  • With his lashing out at the president.
  • 00:10:06.365 --> 00:10:08.701
  • Well, i would argue that, man, there's no truth
  • 00:10:08.701 --> 00:10:10.269
  • When i hit him straight dab in the face.
  • 00:10:10.269 --> 00:10:11.904
  • And the fact is, it's not just president
  • 00:10:11.904 --> 00:10:13.439
  • Trump who's talking about this.
  • 00:10:13.439 --> 00:10:15.107
  • You have people like secretary
  • 00:10:15.107 --> 00:10:16.508
  • Of state marco rubio, you've got john ratcliffe,
  • 00:10:16.508 --> 00:10:20.012
  • You got,
  • 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:22.581
  • Chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, kaine,
  • 00:10:22.581 --> 00:10:24.683
  • Who all are supporting this president's decision
  • 00:10:24.683 --> 00:10:27.553
  • And saying this was an imminent threat, that iran was
  • 00:10:27.553 --> 00:10:31.523
  • Weeks, months away from being able to to start,
  • 00:10:31.523 --> 00:10:35.094
  • Creating these weapons 60, 70ft under earth.
  • 00:10:35.094 --> 00:10:38.831
  • And if we were to allow them that capability,
  • 00:10:38.831 --> 00:10:41.066
  • They would, in fact, have a weapon that could be used
  • 00:10:41.066 --> 00:10:43.736
  • Against the united states, against our allies.
  • 00:10:43.736 --> 00:10:46.138
  • And what you've seen when these missiles that
  • 00:10:46.138 --> 00:10:48.140
  • Iran denied that they had, that a democrat colleagues denied
  • 00:10:48.140 --> 00:10:52.144
  • That iran had was the capability of being able to do
  • 00:10:52.144 --> 00:10:55.247
  • Tremendous amount of damage, take tens of thousands of lives,
  • 00:10:55.247 --> 00:10:59.418
  • From from people very far away.
  • 00:10:59.418 --> 00:11:02.254
  • And we were
  • 00:11:02.254 --> 00:11:03.122
  • We were very strategic, very successful
  • 00:11:03.122 --> 00:11:05.090
  • In taking out their ability to to do that.
  • 00:11:05.090 --> 00:11:06.992
  • I think this trump administration
  • 00:11:06.992 --> 00:11:08.293
  • Has been very clear where their goals.
  • 00:11:08.293 --> 00:11:10.195
  • They want to make sure that they don't
  • 00:11:10.195 --> 00:11:11.396
  • Have the ability to be able to create a nuclear weapon.
  • 00:11:11.396 --> 00:11:13.866
  • They want to make sure
  • 00:11:13.866 --> 00:11:14.700
  • They don't have ballistic missiles,
  • 00:11:14.700 --> 00:11:16.268
  • And they want to make sure that their navy is decimated
  • 00:11:16.268 --> 00:11:18.670
  • So that they can stop using the strait of hormuz, which has
  • 00:11:18.670 --> 00:11:21.974
  • A, you know, double digit percentage of our of our oil
  • 00:11:21.974 --> 00:11:25.811
  • And the world's oil that moves through it, to be able
  • 00:11:25.811 --> 00:11:28.747
  • To, you know, hold, our allies, act as hostages.
  • 00:11:28.747 --> 00:11:33.585
  • I think the again, this has been a very strategic strike,
  • 00:11:33.585 --> 00:11:37.356
  • And the
  • 00:11:37.589 --> 00:11:38.724
  • The outcome in just a few weeks has been extraordinary.
  • 00:11:38.724 --> 00:11:42.327
  • And instead of democrats supporting this move
  • 00:11:42.327 --> 00:11:45.597
  • That has been supported by, the intelligence community
  • 00:11:45.597 --> 00:11:49.168
  • As well as a number of military,
  • 00:11:49.168 --> 00:11:51.837
  • Generals and those with experience in war,
  • 00:11:51.837 --> 00:11:55.140
  • They're just doing what they do best, which is just holding,
  • 00:11:55.140 --> 00:11:58.110
  • You know, trump accountable for everything
  • 00:11:58.110 --> 00:12:00.279
  • And giving him credit for nothing.
  • 00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:02.047
  • Well, here's another mystery to me.
  • 00:12:02.848 --> 00:12:04.483
  • How can they delay funding for tsa?
  • 00:12:04.483 --> 00:12:07.085
  • Surely their families and constituents
  • 00:12:07.085 --> 00:12:09.054
  • Are having to rearrange their lives to deal
  • 00:12:09.054 --> 00:12:10.656
  • With the long lines, and business trips are working.
  • 00:12:10.656 --> 00:12:13.058
  • People are losing momentum by standing in those lines.
  • 00:12:13.058 --> 00:12:15.928
  • Do they really think
  • 00:12:15.928 --> 00:12:17.129
  • That's going to help them come reelection time this fall?
  • 00:12:17.129 --> 00:12:20.132
  • You know,
  • 00:12:20.132 --> 00:12:21.233
  • I guess if you just continue to blame trump for it,
  • 00:12:21.233 --> 00:12:23.969
  • Which is what they're doing, they're blaming trump,
  • 00:12:23.969 --> 00:12:25.804
  • They're blaming the the republicans.
  • 00:12:25.804 --> 00:12:27.372
  • The fact is, is we in the house did our job.
  • 00:12:27.372 --> 00:12:30.008
  • We passed 12 appropriation bills,
  • 00:12:30.008 --> 00:12:32.144
  • Including the appropriations for continuing the funding
  • 00:12:32.144 --> 00:12:35.681
  • For homeland security.
  • 00:12:35.681 --> 00:12:37.082
  • At such a time as this,
  • 00:12:37.082 --> 00:12:38.817
  • When we see these threats
  • 00:12:38.817 --> 00:12:40.319
  • Across the seas, when we see, you know, threats, on our coasts
  • 00:12:40.319 --> 00:12:44.156
  • And we need our coast guard funded,
  • 00:12:44.156 --> 00:12:46.558
  • When we're seeing natural disasters and need fema funded,
  • 00:12:46.558 --> 00:12:50.095
  • And we've got people who are traveling,
  • 00:12:50.095 --> 00:12:51.697
  • You know, overseas for spring break, for easter,
  • 00:12:51.697 --> 00:12:53.966
  • And they are denying these tsa agents again,
  • 00:12:53.966 --> 00:12:57.569
  • Being able to get a paycheck in dfw.
  • 00:12:58.337 --> 00:13:01.106
  • Airport, which is right
  • 00:13:01.106 --> 00:13:02.307
  • In the center of district 24 that i represent,
  • 00:13:02.307 --> 00:13:05.344
  • We have had, folks who work with tsa
  • 00:13:05.344 --> 00:13:08.013
  • Who have complained that they're having to sleep in their car
  • 00:13:08.013 --> 00:13:10.449
  • Because they can't afford gas.
  • 00:13:10.449 --> 00:13:12.551
  • It is outrageous.
  • 00:13:12.551 --> 00:13:13.819
  • It should no way, shape
  • 00:13:13.819 --> 00:13:15.354
  • Or form be able to happen in this country.
  • 00:13:15.354 --> 00:13:17.189
  • We have the ability to be able to fight it.
  • 00:13:17.189 --> 00:13:19.024
  • But the democrats continue to move that bar
  • 00:13:19.024 --> 00:13:21.793
  • Just when they when they think that,
  • 00:13:21.793 --> 00:13:24.062
  • That the the senate republicans think that they've got a deal
  • 00:13:24.062 --> 00:13:26.698
  • Made the senate democrats blow it up and they are holding
  • 00:13:26.698 --> 00:13:30.535
  • Tsa and and everybody who's traveling hostage right now.
  • 00:13:30.535 --> 00:13:34.306
  • And you saw some of the lines made in houston.
  • 00:13:34.306 --> 00:13:36.408
  • There were five hours.
  • 00:13:36.408 --> 00:13:37.876
  • Can you imagine getting the airport
  • 00:13:37.876 --> 00:13:38.977
  • 5 hours or 4 hours early and still missing your flight?
  • 00:13:38.977 --> 00:13:42.581
  • I really hope that the
  • 00:13:43.048 --> 00:13:44.316
  • The people who are being affected by this,
  • 00:13:44.316 --> 00:13:45.984
  • Most are very vocal with their elected officials
  • 00:13:45.984 --> 00:13:48.954
  • And tell them how disgusted they are with it.
  • 00:13:48.954 --> 00:13:50.489
  • You know, the democrats seem to have plenty of money
  • 00:13:51.523 --> 00:13:53.692
  • For the millions of people in our sanctuary cities,
  • 00:13:53.692 --> 00:13:56.228
  • Even while they look
  • 00:13:56.228 --> 00:13:57.496
  • The other way at the hundreds of millions of dollars in fraud.
  • 00:13:57.496 --> 00:14:00.265
  • People continue to flock to texas,
  • 00:14:00.265 --> 00:14:01.733
  • Where you live near nashville, where i'm at.
  • 00:14:01.733 --> 00:14:04.336
  • Is it fair to say that americans don't want to see
  • 00:14:04.336 --> 00:14:06.438
  • The hard earned taxes they're paying?
  • 00:14:06.438 --> 00:14:07.873
  • Go to people who are
  • 00:14:07.873 --> 00:14:09.241
  • The democrats are trying to buy off these days?
  • 00:14:09.241 --> 00:14:12.177
  • I think people work hard for their money.
  • 00:14:12.177 --> 00:14:13.779
  • They want to be able to keep it.
  • 00:14:13.779 --> 00:14:15.047
  • And when they see the federal government force it out of their
  • 00:14:15.047 --> 00:14:17.115
  • Their pocketbooks
  • 00:14:17.115 --> 00:14:18.183
  • And hand it over to people
  • 00:14:18.183 --> 00:14:19.351
  • Who are here illegally through a number of different ways,
  • 00:14:19.351 --> 00:14:22.354
  • They're handing it to these ngos there and then giving money
  • 00:14:22.354 --> 00:14:25.857
  • To illegal immigrants. they're also giving money.
  • 00:14:25.857 --> 00:14:28.560
  • You see the waste, the fraud and abuse.
  • 00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:30.062
  • The democrats don't seem to want to fight.
  • 00:14:30.062 --> 00:14:32.030
  • And what we're seeing there is, you know, just as it's exposed
  • 00:14:32.030 --> 00:14:34.967
  • In minnesota, you see some groups
  • 00:14:34.967 --> 00:14:36.835
  • Like the somalis, in minnesota actually sending it back money.
  • 00:14:36.835 --> 00:14:41.406
  • Federal taxpayer dollars, sending it back
  • 00:14:41.406 --> 00:14:44.009
  • To their countries for to support terrorist activities.
  • 00:14:44.009 --> 00:14:46.611
  • I think when people see that, they get disgusted
  • 00:14:46.611 --> 00:14:48.747
  • And that's when they start, you know, voting with their feet
  • 00:14:48.747 --> 00:14:51.483
  • And moving out of states like california and illinois
  • 00:14:51.483 --> 00:14:54.119
  • And new york into states like tennessee and florida and texas.
  • 00:14:54.119 --> 00:14:57.956
  • It is costing those states.
  • 00:14:57.956 --> 00:15:00.058
  • You know, you have governors like newsome and hochul
  • 00:15:00.058 --> 00:15:03.328
  • Who are very critical.
  • 00:15:03.328 --> 00:15:04.663
  • You know what?
  • 00:15:04.663 --> 00:15:05.897
  • If you don't like being here and you don't want to support
  • 00:15:05.897 --> 00:15:07.099
  • Democrats, then move.
  • 00:15:07.099 --> 00:15:08.133
  • And you know what? people moved in droves.
  • 00:15:08.133 --> 00:15:10.702
  • And you know what they took with him?
  • 00:15:10.702 --> 00:15:11.937
  • They're taxpayer dollars.
  • 00:15:11.937 --> 00:15:13.905
  • There was an irs report that just came out earlier
  • 00:15:13.905 --> 00:15:15.874
  • This week that showed that those blue states have lost
  • 00:15:15.874 --> 00:15:18.910
  • Tens of billions of dollars because people have left them.
  • 00:15:18.910 --> 00:15:22.414
  • And where are they going to art to to to the southern states.
  • 00:15:22.414 --> 00:15:25.951
  • And now you've got governor hochul
  • 00:15:25.951 --> 00:15:27.386
  • Who's begging them to come back, will you?
  • 00:15:27.386 --> 00:15:29.955
  • When you treat your taxpayers like this,
  • 00:15:29.955 --> 00:15:32.257
  • You know, expect them to leave.
  • 00:15:32.257 --> 00:15:33.692
  • So you know, we've been hopeful, optimistic that,
  • 00:15:33.692 --> 00:15:37.462
  • The great state of california is beautiful as it is.
  • 00:15:37.462 --> 00:15:41.233
  • It would have some kind of sense,
  • 00:15:41.233 --> 00:15:43.268
  • That their voters would actually elect people
  • 00:15:43.268 --> 00:15:45.037
  • Who are not going to, you know,
  • 00:15:45.037 --> 00:15:46.438
  • Put them over the coals and, and overregulate them
  • 00:15:46.438 --> 00:15:49.408
  • In overtaxing, but doesn't seem to be working any time soon.
  • 00:15:49.408 --> 00:15:53.578
  • Well, congresswoman van dyne, we need to take a short break.
  • 00:15:53.578 --> 00:15:55.981
  • Can you stand by for another segment or
  • 00:15:55.981 --> 00:15:59.251
  • For those of you who want to jump in
  • 00:15:59.251 --> 00:16:00.452
  • On this conversation, you can simply log on to aj.
  • 00:16:00.452 --> 00:16:02.754
  • Now.com. you send me an email.
  • 00:16:02.754 --> 00:16:04.656
  • I'd love to hear from you.
  • 00:16:04.656 --> 00:16:06.058
  • We'll be back in just a moment.
  • 00:16:06.058 --> 00:16:14.005
  • We'll be back in just a moment.
  • 00:16:14.005 --> 00:16:18.771
  • We're back now with texas
  • 00:16:19.338 --> 00:16:20.773
  • Republican congresswoman beth van dyne.
  • 00:16:20.773 --> 00:16:23.776
  • President trump remains firm in his desire to have
  • 00:16:23.776 --> 00:16:26.312
  • National voter id, backed by proof of citizenship.
  • 00:16:26.312 --> 00:16:29.916
  • And he's suggesting that congress stay in session,
  • 00:16:29.916 --> 00:16:32.585
  • Skip going home for the easter recess to get that done.
  • 00:16:32.585 --> 00:16:35.788
  • Do you see any chance of something
  • 00:16:35.788 --> 00:16:37.323
  • Getting done before easter?
  • 00:16:37.323 --> 00:16:39.258
  • Well, i think, quite honestly,
  • 00:16:39.258 --> 00:16:40.893
  • That if john thune were to force them to stay,
  • 00:16:40.893 --> 00:16:44.664
  • And to stop having these,
  • 00:16:45.231 --> 00:16:46.866
  • Unnecessary breaks when people are hurting,
  • 00:16:46.866 --> 00:16:49.435
  • I think he could see some things being done.
  • 00:16:49.435 --> 00:16:52.305
  • You know, at the same token, i also kind of
  • 00:16:52.305 --> 00:16:53.806
  • Want them to be able
  • 00:16:53.806 --> 00:16:54.874
  • To go home and face their their voters directly.
  • 00:16:54.874 --> 00:16:57.577
  • But too many of them don't do that.
  • 00:16:57.577 --> 00:16:58.911
  • And they're using an opportunity to go fundraise instead.
  • 00:16:58.911 --> 00:17:01.581
  • You know, trying to prove that their fight
  • 00:17:01.581 --> 00:17:03.249
  • Is somehow fighting the republicans.
  • 00:17:03.249 --> 00:17:05.084
  • But i do believe that, it's time to be, you know, an
  • 00:17:05.084 --> 00:17:08.521
  • Iron fist in the senate and say, we're not going to break.
  • 00:17:08.521 --> 00:17:11.591
  • We're not going to, you know, let people go home.
  • 00:17:11.591 --> 00:17:13.559
  • We're not going to let people go on vacation or go fundraise
  • 00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.662
  • Until we work this out.
  • 00:17:16.662 --> 00:17:17.897
  • And it's amazing how much money talks up here.
  • 00:17:17.897 --> 00:17:19.966
  • And i think that would definitely have an impact.
  • 00:17:19.966 --> 00:17:23.002
  • But right now, democrats aren't feeling any pain.
  • 00:17:23.002 --> 00:17:25.338
  • They're still continuing to get paid.
  • 00:17:25.338 --> 00:17:27.707
  • You know, congressmen, other senators
  • 00:17:27.707 --> 00:17:29.375
  • Are continuing to get paid even while tsa officers don't.
  • 00:17:29.375 --> 00:17:32.979
  • I think it's ridiculous. i think it's unfair.
  • 00:17:32.979 --> 00:17:34.780
  • And democrats just continue to do this.
  • 00:17:34.780 --> 00:17:37.817
  • Well, chuck schumer claims
  • 00:17:38.384 --> 00:17:39.652
  • That the safe act has nothing to do with homeland security.
  • 00:17:39.652 --> 00:17:42.755
  • Does that mean he's
  • 00:17:42.755 --> 00:17:43.756
  • Okay with non-citizens voting in our elections?
  • 00:17:43.756 --> 00:17:46.659
  • Apparently, it seems so.
  • 00:17:46.659 --> 00:17:48.861
  • He admits that we already have a law against it.
  • 00:17:48.861 --> 00:17:50.963
  • And yet when you try to enforce that law just by verifying,
  • 00:17:50.963 --> 00:17:54.000
  • You know, he's he's upset about it
  • 00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:55.668
  • And say how unfair that is.
  • 00:17:55.668 --> 00:17:57.370
  • We trust but verify.
  • 00:17:57.370 --> 00:17:58.571
  • We do that with ids all the time
  • 00:17:58.571 --> 00:18:00.773
  • Whether or not it's going to buy,
  • 00:18:00.773 --> 00:18:02.275
  • You know, beer or wine at your local grocery store,
  • 00:18:02.275 --> 00:18:04.277
  • You have to verify your age, whether or not it's driving
  • 00:18:04.277 --> 00:18:07.013
  • A car.
  • 00:18:07.013 --> 00:18:07.947
  • You have to verify that you have insurance
  • 00:18:07.947 --> 00:18:10.016
  • During the obama administration
  • 00:18:10.016 --> 00:18:11.551
  • Or during the obama administration when they had,
  • 00:18:11.551 --> 00:18:14.687
  • Obamacare, you had to verify that
  • 00:18:14.687 --> 00:18:16.589
  • You had paid for for insurance not that long ago.
  • 00:18:16.589 --> 00:18:19.492
  • You had to verify in order to keep your government job
  • 00:18:19.492 --> 00:18:22.628
  • That you had gotten,
  • 00:18:22.628 --> 00:18:24.130
  • You know, the stick for covid, you'd gotten the vaccination.
  • 00:18:24.130 --> 00:18:28.367
  • So they don't seem to,
  • 00:18:28.367 --> 00:18:29.302
  • You know, be bothered at all by people
  • 00:18:29.302 --> 00:18:30.937
  • Having to go through hoops to verify what they want.
  • 00:18:30.937 --> 00:18:34.073
  • But when it comes to voting legally in our country,
  • 00:18:34.073 --> 00:18:37.076
  • It seems to be a huge sticking point.
  • 00:18:37.076 --> 00:18:39.078
  • And again, why what we talked about
  • 00:18:39.078 --> 00:18:40.846
  • At the beginning of the hour was that,
  • 00:18:40.846 --> 00:18:42.448
  • You know,
  • 00:18:42.448 --> 00:18:43.416
  • You've got democrats who are going to lose
  • 00:18:43.416 --> 00:18:45.184
  • Their congressional districts, their population,
  • 00:18:45.184 --> 00:18:47.286
  • Because people are voting with their feet,
  • 00:18:47.286 --> 00:18:49.188
  • And therefore they are going to have illegal immigrants
  • 00:18:49.188 --> 00:18:51.457
  • Take their place and
  • 00:18:51.457 --> 00:18:53.693
  • If you don't, if they agree that people need to be here
  • 00:18:53.693 --> 00:18:56.796
  • Legally, and legally to vote, then they shouldn't
  • 00:18:56.796 --> 00:19:00.166
  • Have a problem with it.
  • 00:19:00.166 --> 00:19:01.234
  • But obviously they don't.
  • 00:19:01.234 --> 00:19:03.736
  • The president appointed vice president j.d.
  • 00:19:03.736 --> 00:19:05.938
  • Vance to oversee the process
  • 00:19:05.938 --> 00:19:07.573
  • Of figuring out who's stealing and how to stop the fraud.
  • 00:19:07.573 --> 00:19:11.444
  • But is anything being done in congress to put a serious end
  • 00:19:11.444 --> 00:19:14.080
  • To the billions of dollars that are stolen now?
  • 00:19:14.080 --> 00:19:17.016
  • Oh, look, we are having a ton of investigations.
  • 00:19:17.016 --> 00:19:19.452
  • You know, i think, chairman comer and, chairman jordan
  • 00:19:19.452 --> 00:19:22.588
  • Are doing an excellent job in judiciary and in oversight.
  • 00:19:22.588 --> 00:19:26.626
  • I've got bills that would do just that.
  • 00:19:26.626 --> 00:19:28.794
  • We're just waiting for them to get out of committee.
  • 00:19:28.794 --> 00:19:30.496
  • I mean, i've got a bill which would more or less,
  • 00:19:30.496 --> 00:19:33.299
  • Is trying to codify some of these efforts.
  • 00:19:33.299 --> 00:19:35.268
  • It would, force third party audits on our agencies
  • 00:19:35.268 --> 00:19:39.238
  • To see where there's repetition,
  • 00:19:39.238 --> 00:19:40.573
  • To see where there's fraud, where there's ways
  • 00:19:40.573 --> 00:19:42.074
  • Where there's abuse and actually do something about it.
  • 00:19:42.074 --> 00:19:44.543
  • So there are efforts afoot already,
  • 00:19:44.543 --> 00:19:46.846
  • And i know this administration is is uncovering them,
  • 00:19:46.846 --> 00:19:49.749
  • But people do not want to see their hard
  • 00:19:49.749 --> 00:19:51.884
  • Earned dollars being given away, whether or not
  • 00:19:51.884 --> 00:19:53.619
  • There's given away to fraud, waste
  • 00:19:53.619 --> 00:19:55.321
  • Or to people who are in our country illegally.
  • 00:19:55.321 --> 00:19:57.957
  • Well, one last question.
  • 00:19:57.957 --> 00:19:59.191
  • You served
  • 00:19:59.191 --> 00:19:59.825
  • At the local level in texas
  • 00:19:59.825 --> 00:20:01.160
  • And as a national player in congress,
  • 00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:03.796
  • It must be frustrating to have to see what it takes
  • 00:20:03.796 --> 00:20:06.032
  • To do consensus across so many members
  • 00:20:06.032 --> 00:20:08.467
  • Versus being a mayor and just being able
  • 00:20:08.467 --> 00:20:10.202
  • To get things done using just your common sense.
  • 00:20:10.202 --> 00:20:13.039
  • What's that like for you?
  • 00:20:13.039 --> 00:20:14.674
  • You know, as a mayor, there was definitely an ability
  • 00:20:14.674 --> 00:20:16.876
  • To be able to get things done
  • 00:20:16.876 --> 00:20:17.943
  • Just by sheer willpower and determination.
  • 00:20:17.943 --> 00:20:20.146
  • Being able to force a vote,
  • 00:20:20.146 --> 00:20:21.213
  • Being able to create, committees,
  • 00:20:21.213 --> 00:20:23.883
  • And being able to force the agenda to be voted on
  • 00:20:23.883 --> 00:20:26.419
  • And being able to bring people
  • 00:20:26.419 --> 00:20:27.420
  • Forward, it's much more difficult.
  • 00:20:27.420 --> 00:20:29.021
  • In congress.
  • 00:20:29.021 --> 00:20:29.889
  • You got 435 different personalities,
  • 00:20:29.889 --> 00:20:32.358
  • Just in the house alone, another 100 in the senate
  • 00:20:32.358 --> 00:20:34.527
  • And a number in the administration.
  • 00:20:34.527 --> 00:20:36.996
  • Trying to get these things done is very difficult.
  • 00:20:36.996 --> 00:20:39.498
  • But we also have to think about is that sometimes
  • 00:20:39.498 --> 00:20:41.934
  • Not a good thing
  • 00:20:41.934 --> 00:20:42.968
  • That you can't have things happen
  • 00:20:42.968 --> 00:20:44.737
  • As quickly as some of us would like or otherwise,
  • 00:20:44.737 --> 00:20:47.940
  • You know, potentially every two years.
  • 00:20:47.940 --> 00:20:49.408
  • Can you imagine trying to follow all
  • 00:20:49.408 --> 00:20:51.010
  • These different laws that are changing businesses?
  • 00:20:51.010 --> 00:20:53.412
  • Tell us all the time, look, we can we can play by the rules
  • 00:20:53.412 --> 00:20:56.148
  • As long as we know what the rules are.
  • 00:20:56.148 --> 00:20:58.217
  • But i think this is why you're seeing
  • 00:20:58.217 --> 00:20:59.552
  • Some of the bills that we just passed.
  • 00:20:59.552 --> 00:21:01.620
  • Having these permanent provisions,
  • 00:21:01.620 --> 00:21:03.589
  • You know,
  • 00:21:03.589 --> 00:21:04.223
  • When we passed the tax cut
  • 00:21:04.223 --> 00:21:05.725
  • And jobs act, a lot of those provisions
  • 00:21:05.725 --> 00:21:07.626
  • Were going to expire at the end of last year.
  • 00:21:07.626 --> 00:21:09.829
  • The one big beautiful bill is working families tax cut,
  • 00:21:09.829 --> 00:21:13.466
  • Tax cut act actually has these permanent
  • 00:21:13.466 --> 00:21:16.202
  • So that people can rely on these tax cuts,
  • 00:21:16.202 --> 00:21:19.405
  • Going forward in the future, which is why you're seeing now
  • 00:21:19.405 --> 00:21:22.007
  • At 100,
  • 00:21:22.007 --> 00:21:23.242
  • $150 billion in tax rebates that are going to be written,
  • 00:21:23.242 --> 00:21:26.178
  • Checks that are going to be written to,
  • 00:21:26.178 --> 00:21:27.813
  • Working families over the next couple of months
  • 00:21:27.813 --> 00:21:29.682
  • During tax season.
  • 00:21:29.682 --> 00:21:30.916
