Okay, welcome back. A lot said there and a lot of it quite smart. Our enemies do a good job of deconstructing what's going on. So Russ Vogt, we've had him here for, you know, on, for the, for the last four years, ever since he left the Trump administration first term. One of the single smartest guys I've ever met and one of the smartest guys ever about the US Government outside of the chief of staff, the power centers in a West Wing, the first level, are the chief of staff, the White House counsel and omb. And you might throw a couple of senior counselors in there, whoever they happen to be, who are senior advisors to the, to the, to the principal, to POTUS in any administration, right. So, but those three run nodes of power that are essential. Everything comes through the White House counsel because everything's got some legal aspect to it. Omb has about 600, I think, permanent employees and 30, roughly political people that are assigned or brought in every program. When, when you pass this budget, right? When you do the appropriations, you pass overall budget to kind of get your top line number. You then have the appropriations process where you fight it through and then it's finally negotiated and passed. Once it goes over, it's like, well, then what happens? How do people get the money? Well, it's broken down. Office of Management budget is out to every agency. The Defense Department, the Agriculture Department, the Interior Department, the Treasury Department. Every how that six and a half or seven trillion dollars gets spent. Believe it or not, it's all tracked down to literally the penny. When it goes in, where it goes, who got the money and programmatically, where they stand on doing whatever they do. So although it may seem vastly inefficient, and it is, it is track like MTG was on here today, say, hey, we've given $250 billion to Ukraine and she's asking for an audit. We haven't got anything because they're sitting there going, I don't know where it goes. I don't know where it is. They're lying to her. She knows they're lying to her. So programmatically, OMB is a beast. And the head of OMB has immense and enormous power. This is why I keep talking about the Doge element. And now I think because the way the Doge and let's leave the bro side aside because they're beating on chess and that's great. We need that. That energy helped us win on November 5th, and we need that. We need more of that. But in the reality of how actually things are going to get accomplished, if you read the Doge layout, it's not a new department. It is a group of outside. And they're very upfront, Vivek and Elon. We are outside the government advisors and consultants to wait for it. Omb. And this makes incredible sense. It's very smart, the doge. And they're going to have their own group. And of course, MTG's got the subcommittee on oversight, which I also think is brilliant, to now kind of worked in unison with Russ Vogt and his team on the project 2025. Did I say that? I love. I love triggering the libs, owning the libs with the project 2025 guys that may or may not be coming on board in this regard. If you want to get control of the Leviathan, you get control of the cash. Remember in Watergate, follow the money. Follow the money. Here it is the money of not the sources of cash, which is a problem and an issue. This is the uses of cash. You have sources and uses anytime you do a financing or merger, acquisition, restructuring, bankruptcy, sources of cash, uses of cash. This is the uses side. And this is where Vivek and Elon and others are going to go through and see how you deconstruct this entity called a state or a government. Right. State power to actually come together and to try to take programmatically, because it's not always fraud and abuse. It's going to become programs. We're not going to do this. We're not going to do that. We're not going to do this. The private sector can do it or we incentivize people to do it. This is why Russ vote is so important. And this is the all important line of work on both the finance and I think later tonight or maybe tomorrow we will have a Secretary of treasury and a secretary of the treasury and maybe ahead of the National Economic Council. Remember, anchored in the White House right through to an agency anchored with Bill McGinley as White House counsel, right all the way through justice to the Attorney General, the dag, the pdag, all of it. Now the structure there is fine. We have a problem. Houston, we have a problem. The anchor on the other side, Matt Gaetz is now a casualty of war. He is a casualty of political war. He's our first casualty. Fix bayonets, you're in the trenches, you're going over the top. Boom. Gates is gone. That happens. This is kind of the equivalent of in the Civil War of Albert Sidney Johnson, arguably our greatest general at the time, getting taken out in Shiloh in April, I think of 1862. @ the, @ the, you know, kind of the beginning of everything. You lose some of the great ones right out of the box or because I'm not just sitting there arguing for rebels. General Philip Kearney, who died second Manassas, one of the greats, an incredible individual, incredible one armed. One of just the absolute greats killed, I think at second Manassas, another one. You just lose them right at the beginning. And these are the types of guys you can never make up. That's Gates. Gates is out. Will he come back and be special prosecutor? Yes. Gates is always going to be a player in this. Is he advisor to the president? Does he go in the West Wing? Maybe that's what we do. You don't have to be confirmed. There's lots of things to do with Gates. He's tremendous value. But in the reality in that line of work, which AG is absolutely central, he's out. And they're blood in the water. And they got a win. They got a big win. But on another aspect of the line of work which is equally important, and that is the getting together of our finances and the economy and unlocking the power of this entrepreneurial capitalist society, it is taking on the Leviathan. Because until you take on the Leviathan and get this one, it's going to do all kind of stuff you don't want it to do, which are bad things, many bad things. Like initiate and exacerbate an invasion of your country. Think about that for a second. Initiate and exacerbate an invasion of 10 or 15 million. Are you kidding me? Illegal aliens in this country. So the administrative state and the deep state do many, many bad things. That has to be deconstructed so that we have a limited government that helps to maximize the potential from a capitalistic society and so that folks can get the blessings of liberty, which is the whole radical idea that started this constitutional republic. That's it. If this wasn't the idea we've been part, we would have been the anchor. You had India in the Pacific and you had the Indian Ocean and the Eurasian landmass and you had the United States and North America. They were about the same time, roughly the two legs to the beginning of a massive empire, the British Empire. We opted out in basically laying the predicate stage, the kind of launch by the revolutionary generation, the heroes that every patriot grave would go back to the revolution and because of defying providence providential. Next April 20th, approximately, I don't know, 90 days into Trump's second term, it's the 250th anniversary of Lexington and Concord. The shot heard around the world that just doesn't happen. Divine Providence worked through Trump and worked through you, your agency, to get us here today. And hey, it's going to be such a struggle. And today I hope this is a wake up call. I hope this was a bitch slap that we lost one of the greats and he may be back, but he ain't going to be in the role that we need him as Attorney General. We lost it, but we picked up Russ Vogt. And Russ Vogt is an organizer that can organize what Doge is going to do, what can help organize what the appropriations are going to do, and to give President Trump a much clearer management plan of how we lay the predicate for the management part of how we're going to unleash the vitality of this economy and start to finance it like adults would finance.
