Time Text
This is an iHeart Podcast.
Hour two, Sean Hannity show, toll free.
It's 800-941.
Sean, you want to be a part of the program.
Well, one of the biggest opportunities in terms of a Senate pickup state is out in the great state of Arizona.
Polls have shown the battle between Blake Masters and Mark Kelly tightening.
I'm having a hard time understanding why anybody in the border state of Arizona would ever vote for Mark Kelly.
What has he done?
He has done nothing for the state of Arizona.
He has been basically you have Chuck Schumer as your senator.
That's because he votes with Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden and their radical agenda pretty much every single time.
Blake Masters has come out with a new ad on this very issue about an invasion at the border and how he will go back to the plan to the policies of Donald Trump that were working.
Two hundred and fifty thousand illegals cross this border every month.
This is an invasion.
We know what to do.
We need to finish Trump's wall.
We need five times more border patrol.
And we need technology to lock this border down.
If we don't do these things right now, we're not going to have a country.
I'm Blake Masters, and I approve this message.
President Trump endorsed me because he knows that I'm going to secure this border.
Music Now the fascinating thing is Mark Kelly, like uh, let's see, the Wisconsin Democratic candidate, Fetterman and Pennsylvania, War knocked down in Georgia.
Nobody wants to be seen with Joe Biden.
No Democrat wants to be seen with Joe Biden.
And uh anyway, Mark Kelly was asked whether he wants Biden to campaign with him, and listen to this lukewarm response.
Do you want the uh president?
But I want to campaign for him for uh can campaign with him.
Uh would you like to see that?
I invite anybody to come out here.
We've got significant issues in the state of Arizona.
Anybody's crisis is something I've been working really hard to address, eight billion dollars in the infrastructure bill for that, four billion dollars in the inflation reduction act to deal with the immediate needs of the crisis.
Um so if anybody comes to Arizona, I'm I'm I'm looking to show them, you know, what do we what do we need for the federal government?
How do we solve these problems?
And so if he came out here and held an event, uh you'd you'd attend that eventually.
I would certainly consider it.
Consider is not well, I would look at it.
Yeah.
Sure.
I mean, I I could be in Washington, you know, voting on important legislation.
I mean, that's that's very that's very possibility, but if you were free, you'd you'd gladly go and depend on what the event was, where it was, and you know, what's you know, what's what's the goal, but if the president wanted to come out here and and and see Arizona, you know, I'd welcome him to do it.
You can't make it up.
He can't run away fast enough.
I mean, it is a great answer.
Uh well, I I'd invite anybody.
Well, if he comes, uh, I'd consider it.
Um wait, I might be in Washington.
I may have other plans that day.
I might be at tea with my friends.
Um now also uh was asked the question of whether or not Biden has done a good job.
Listen to this.
You know, your thoughts on his job.
Uh is he done a good job, do you think?
Hey, uh you know, I d you know, uh first of all, it's not my job to give him a report card.
I would say, you know, mixed reviews, you know, on certain things.
I've got issues with how uh Afghanistan, you know, how our role in Afghanistan ended.
Oh, okay.
Uh mixed reviews.
Uh it's not my job to give him a report card.
Doesn't sound very enthusiastic.
Anyway, Blake Masters has been making big strides out there.
Now Carrie Lake is the gubernatorial candidate, and we made a big deal yesterday over the fact that her democratic opponent won't debate her.
Uh she's afraid of Carrie Lake.
There's no doubt about it.
Um, but anyway, things have been tightening in Arizona.
It's it's definitely a purple slant blue state, and yet it seems like it is totally in play for the gubernatorial race and the Senate race.
Blake Masters is the Senate candidate out there, and he's with us now.
How are you, sir?
Doing great, Sean.
Thanks for having me.
It's not ours.
It's not my job to to give Joe Biden a report card, and oh, if he comes out, uh I'd I'd consider meeting him.
Um I'd I'd, you know, uh I welcome anybody to come out here, but I don't know if I want to be seen with the guy.
Isn't that something?
He's just squirming.
He's just weasling his way uh to you know, try to put some distance between himself and Joe Biden.
But the reason, Sean, the reason that Mark Kelly doesn't want to give Biden Uh a report card is because Biden's report card is Mark Kelly's report card.
Biden's record is Mark Kelly's record.
Mark Kelly promised Arizona he'd be independent, but then he got to DC and he handed his voting card to Chuck Schumer, and he's just rubber stamping the Schumer Biden open borders uh pro inflation agenda.
So he can pretend all he wants to be independent and be uncomfortable with Joe Biden.
It's not gonna work though.
He's just got a at least Kristen Cinema fought back a little.
You gotta give her some credit.
But in the case of Mark Kelly, what is he, a hundred percent Biden Schumer voter, or very close to it?
Basically where it counts.
Yeah, and I think people praise cinema too much.
She's still too left wing, but where protecting the filibuster, she and Mansion, God bless him, they showed Chuck Schumer that they knew how to say go pound sand.
So she's somewhat independent.
We can respect that credit where it's due.
Mark Kelly promised to be like cinema, and he's just failed.
He's just a national democrat.
But here's the worst part is your state like Texas has been inundated with border issues.
I know because I've been there.
As a matter of fact, one time, one trip to the border um in Arizona, I actually stepped over what what was uh supposedly into Mexico.
It turns out that there's a buffer, so what it wasn't officially that, and you had a state representative that wanted me arrested for entering America illegally because I took the step back in.
How stupid are these people?
Well, you know, if the left didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all.
They're totally fine with five million illegals, literally five million illegal aliens have come here since Mark Kelly's taken office.
And he hasn't done a darn thing to stop it.
Actually, he's uh you know, people say he's a do nothing senator.
No, he's actually done a whole lot to help Joe Biden drag this country further and he's a do damage senator.
I'd take it a step further.
He's damaging the country.
These policies are damaging the country.
That's right.
And all the women and children, of course, that are being trafficked by the cartels, they're brutally assaulted, they're sold into sexual slavery.
Just the fentanyl, just the fentanyl alone that crosses our southern border.
This is killing teenagers in Arizona, killing teenagers throughout our country, and Mark Kelly, he's okay with this unfettered flow of fentanyl because he's not doing anything to stop it.
Why has he not lifted a finger?
Why is he allowed this to go on, knowing the the negative impact?
It's been pretty fascinating to watch.
I think one of the biggest, greatest political jujitsu moves I've ever seen in my life happened with Governor Greg Abbott and him putting illegal immigrants uh in his state on buses and sending them to Chicago and Washington, D.C. and New York City and you know, just a tiny, you know, less than one percent of people that he sent out and Washington and D.C. declared a state of emergency, called in the National Guard.
Uh you have the mayor of New York freaking out, not knowing what to do with just a few dozen people.
Uh you have Lori Lightweight, the mayor of Chicago, uh, once they arrived in her city, she put them back in buses and sent them out elsewhere.
I mean, it's it's amazing because they all believe in sanctuary status, sanctuary cities, but uh it's nothing compared to what you've been dealing with in Arizona.
And my question is, why isn't there more anger in the people of Arizona?
Because this is this is preventable.
Donald Trump State of Mexico policy worked, building the wall worked, ending catch and release worked.
Now it's process release, no background checks and in terms of radical associations, no health checks in the middle of a pandemic, no means test to to prove that you're able to provide for yourself and won't be a financial burden on the American people.
You know, you get a free Biden phone and free transportation to the state of your choice.
It's insane.
Well, it is insane, but I I'm happy to tell you, people in Arizona are upset.
People in Arizona are pissed off about this.
And it's why I still think we're gonna have a red wave.
You know, and when we model the electorate Sean, two-thirds of the independent that we need to vote Republican in November, they don't like Joe Biden.
They know the country's heading in the wrong direction.
They want to make a change.
Uh the issue that we're up against in Arizona is propaganda.
You know, Mark Kelly's got a huge war chest.
I'm up against the whole Democrat national machine.
They've spent sixty million bucks propping him up and attacking me.
Uh where are they getting all this money?
They've done the same thing to Herschel.
They've done the same thing to Ron Johnson, the same thing to Dr. Oz.
Where are these where are they getting these tens of millions of dollars that they're dumping in these negative ads full of lies?
Part of it's small dollar operation, and you know, they have Google working with them.
Google disproportionately censors conservatives fundraising emails to put them in spam.
Uh the Democrats' fundraising emails always go straight to the top.
So the big tech complex is working with the Democrats to make their small dollar machine very efficient.
Of course, at the big high dollar level, you've got all the Soros dark money.
You've got the left wing billionaires.
They're pretty efficient at laundering the stuff and hiding it.
But you know that this act blue machine, it takes in big money and it parcels it out to uh to Warnock.
It parcels it out to Mark Kelly and Fetterman.
They've just built this machine.
And they can buy a lot of lies with that.
And the media, of course, uh does it for free.
The media's got their thumb on the scale here in Arizona.
They want Mark Kelly to win.
They're telling lies about me and Mark Kelly's record every day.
But normal people know in their bones what Joe Biden and Mark Kelly are doing to this country is a disaster.
And I think Arizona's are waking up.
I'm seeing it on the campaign trail every day.
I think we're going to have a red wave.
Well, I hope you're right.
Arizona, this would be a huge pickup.
That and Adam, you and Adam Laxalt in Nevada would be a massive the Republicans and would be, you know, would almost guarantee Republican a Republican majority in the Senate.
And I can see the race has been tightening, and I see the race uh with Carrie Like.
She's she's now, I think, actually taking the lead in one poll that I saw.
Um, is uh Mark Kelly gonna debate you?
How many debates will he have with you?
We've got him to agree to one.
We challenged him to four and hoped that he would agree to one.
They've agreed to one, and uh it's October 6th.
It's gonna be a spectacle.
I'm gonna put him on the ropes.
His record is literally indefensible.
So I look forward to seeing him defend it.
He's tell us about his record.
So most people in Arizona, I want you to listen to the record, because he's a Schumer Biden hundred percenter.
So explain what that means.
Well, just recently, with this inflation reduction act, right?
So called, even though it's gonna obviously increase inflation.
Mark Kelly, of course, voted for it, but in the amendment process, he rejected an amendment that would have hired 20,000 border patrol agents.
So we badly need.
So he said no to 20,000 border patrol agents, and he said yes, please, to 87,000 IRS agents.
Some of them armed, right?
And that is a perfect stand-in for Mark Kelly's value system.
It's a perfect stand-in for his voting record.
No to border security, yes to raise taxes and pick eighty-seven thousand new IRS agents on you.
And so whether it's border security, whether it's rubber stamping, trillions and spending that's just caused this inflation.
Whatever Joe Biden asks for, Mark Kelly says yes and signs on the dotted line.
All right, we'll take a quick break.
We'll come back.
We'll get to your calls by the way at the bottom of the half hour.
800-941 Sean, our number if you want to uh join us more with Republican senatorial candidate out in Arizona, Blake Masters is with us.
Listen, want to remind you one way in these inflationary and recessionary times you can save money is through your cell phone.
And the one company, my company that I trust that upholds our values is Pure Talk.
Now, they will give you the exact same cell towers as the big carriers, ATT, Verizon T-Mobile.
They'll give you the exact same 5G network that these carriers use.
You'll have the same number of bars, meaning coverage on your phone.
You keep your phone, you keep your phone number.
It's a veteran-owned company of Pure Talk, and that means American jobs on top of everything else.
But the bottom line is right now you can get unlimited talk and text and six gigs of data for about thirty bucks a month.
I mean, you can't get a better deal.
Average family saving a close to a thousand dollars a year.
That's the average.
Many people are saving much more.
So anyway, um, and if you do it right now, you'll get one month free.
All you have to do is dial pound two fifty, say the keyword save now, and you'll get the free month.
That's pound two fifty keywords saved now from our friends at Pure Talk, Pure Talk is simply smarter wireless that saves you money for the exact same coverage.
At nine p.m., do you know where your president is?
I don't know.
Yep, he sounds asleep in his bed.
With not a care in the world.
Must be nice, Joe.
The rest of us will keep working.
You're on the Sean Hennedy show.
All right, well, with the Senate Republican candidate, the great state of Arizona, uh, this would be a massive pickup for Republicans, and it's certainly a winnable race.
Blake Masters uh is the Republican candidate on our newsmaker line.
You know, I'm looking at today's inflation numbers, and you know, if we use the same calculation uh measures that we used, for example, in the 80s, it would be 17%.
That's how bad inflation is.
And oh, they with gas prices Being artificially reduced because they're artificially increasing the supply by dangerously compromising national security and releasing our uh strategic petroleum reserves.
Um that that is only a a band-aid solution, and it's kind of like student loan forgiveness, the bribery election act of 2022.
They're trying to artificially reduce the price of gas just to get through the election.
It's it's a very dangerous thing to do.
It's a 38-year low that we have with our strategic petroleum reserves, and I can't believe they're getting away with this.
Again, me neither, I guess, but I just don't think they're gonna get away with it.
You know, we have some of the worst inflation in the nation in the Greater Phoenix Metro in Arizona.
Generalized inflation is over 20%.
And so this is ruining families, people are having to make tough choices, uh, cutting back on meals so they can fill up their car.
And Biden, yeah, they won a medal.
He took gas from $2 to $5 a gallon, didn't dangerously compromise national security by selling from our strategic reserve.
Okay, you want the medal from reducing it from five dollars to four dollars a gallon.
Like this is so backwards, people know uh that it just doesn't work.
And I'm telling you, Arizona's independence, Republicans, even some Democrats.
They're looking to make a big, big change in November.
Well, I I'm wishing you the best in this race.
I think it's very key, crucial, and important, and I just can't believe that a guy with his record has any chance of of winning in the end.
Um even the New York Times is acknowledging that these polls that have been coming out that show the quote, Democrats are doing far better than expected.
Uh they say it's a mirage.
They don't believe it's true.
I don't believe them either.
I want to see real votes.
When does early voting start in in Arizona?
October twelfth.
Okay, so the voting will begin before you debate, Kelly?
After uh we debate on October 6th.
So it's well.
Okay, and he and he he won't agree to any more debates, just one debate.
That's right.
Even CNN.
I immediately agreed to a CNN debate, even though obviously CNN's left wing.
I'd be playing.
They won't like you over there.
We get Jake Tapper to lob Mark Kelly softballs, and he said nope.
He's unwilling to do that.
So we got him for one debate.
Let's see if he shows up.
There might be a new COVID string that emerges.
Uh he might be sick that day.
He might be at tea with his friends.
Who knows?
But if we debate him, we're gonna see such a contrast.
He's canned, he's plastic, he's fake, he has to apologize and deflect from this horrible left-wing record.
And I'm gonna I'm gonna come at him.
We're gonna put him on the ropes.
Well, yeah, my advice to you is to do exactly that.
Don't let him off the mat and uh hold him accountable for everything he said, everything he's done, all the damage he's created, along with all of these climate alarmist cultists out there that are literally destroying the American dream, especially for the poor middle class people on fixed income.
They're just destroying the entire economy as evidenced by the economy and economic numbers today.
Uh, but anyway, Blake Masters, if people want to get in touch with you, how do they do it?
Well, thank you so much.
Very simple.
Just go to Blakemasters.com, sign up, get involved, donate five or ten bucks if you can.
I know it's tough in the Biden economy, but man, we've got to take back the U.S. Senate, put a check on Joe Biden, start rebuilding this country.
We really do.
This is a very, very dangerous and crucial inflection point, I think, for the country.
And wishing you the best and Corey Lake for a governor out there was supporting her as well.
Thank you for being with us.
Appreciate it, Blake Masters.
Thanks, Charlie.
At 800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program.
Music Solid as a rock, honest, truthful.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, 25 till the top of the hour.
As promised to our busy phones we go.
Meg is in the beautiful state of South Carolina.
We're in South Carolina, are you?
Columbia.
I've been to uh Columbia.
How are you?
Wonderful.
Thanks for asking.
Uh, thanks for taking my call.
It has a Hall Steakhouses, one in Charleston, and there's one in Columbia.
See, you notice every city I ever talk about, I I mentioned the food.
That's obviously where my mind is at.
Great.
I love a good steak myself.
What's on your mind today?
Um, well, uh, I noticed the intense reaction from the cities with Governor Abbott had sent busloads of illegal immigrants, and the thought crossed my mind.
What would happen if he sent the busloads to the battleground state?
I think it listen, I I've been calling it the best political jujitsu move ever that I've witnessed in my life.
I love the Governor DeSantis has joined in.
I think every other governor, especially uh border state governors that are so overwhelmed because of Joe's aiding and abetting law breaking, not enforcing the laws of the land.
If this was Donald Trump, this is an impeachable offense.
He's not enforcing the law of the land.
Now, if he wants to change the law, they have both, you know, they have majorities in both the House and the Senate.
They could always do it the right way.
But not only are they aiding and abetting the law breaking, but they are giving preferential treatment to illegal immigrants.
They've processed them, they release them into the country, they give them a free phone, they give them free transportation, they dump them in in towns and cities in the dark at night all over the country.
Uh they don't give any COVID tests, there's no vaccine mandate for illegal immigrants.
Uh so that's preferential treatment.
And you know, the ultimate push, I guess, in the end is for amnesty, and if they give people something of great value, I would assume the hope is is that there'll be reciprocity or they'd hope for reciprocity and they would continue to vote for Democrats.
Now I support legal immigration.
Like my grandparents came through Ellis Island.
And you come in legally and you get processed, and you go through the the process of becoming a citizen.
And I don't care where you come from, but just do it legally.
Follow the laws.
Respect our laws, our sovereignty, and our borders.
But it's really Joe that is aiding and abetting.
I can promise you this, Meg.
If you did what Joe is doing, you would be arrested for human trafficking and probably spend a long time in jail.
Yes.
I think it's a great idea.
Send them to send them to the swing states.
Yes.
And convince those people who don't vote to vote the right way.
Well, we can certainly try.
I th that it's been a wake-up call for Washington, D.C. It's kind of humorous.
The DC mayor declaring a state of emergency, demanding the National Guard be um uh called up.
Uh you got uh Lori Lightweight.
She put the you know, she says it was cruel and inhumane and then took the illegal immigrants, put them back on buses and sent them out of her city.
Couldn't believe it.
You can't make it up.
Uh anyway, Meg, appreciate you being with us.
800-941 Sean is our number.
You want to be a part of the program as we say hi to Lou is in New Joycey.
What's up, Lou?
How are you?
How are you doing, Sean?
Did you see that poll that half of the people in your state of New Jersey want to get the hell out of there?
Forty-nine percent.
If I can get my son along to move to South Carolina or somewhere, I'll I'm right behind him.
Well, what if you're the father, why don't you just, you know, use your authority and say you're moving.
Let's go, pack.
We're out of here.
Yeah, I wish I could I wish it was that easy.
Yeah, boy, I can I'm struggling with it myself.
Yeah.
First of all, following up with Blake Masters, I have a son Lou and his girlfriend, my future daughter-in-law, Marina in Arizona.
You got two votes right there.
So that's a case.
Listen, every vote counts.
We saw that in the last election.
Every single vote counts.
I'm gonna say one other thing, and I'm gonna speak through you.
I won't take your time, I promise.
Okay.
Republicans, I don't like early voting.
I don't like mail-in voting.
It lends itself, even the the Baker Carter Commission after the 2000 Florida debacle, said mail in voting lends itself to the chance of of way more corruption.
But with that said, if that's going to be the system, you've got to you gotta play with the hand you're dealt, not the hand you wish you had.
You know, you have one hand here, and you can't let the Democrats get an early lead with early voting, and then all of a sudden on election day, we have to count on everybody making it to the polls.
You know, we just have to embrace it and hopefully get a big enough majority that we can change the laws in these states.
Well, the follow up on that, I'm from New Jersey, and we re-elected um the guy we have now.
And he barely won.
Now, if you look at the election going up to the election, the polls had Murphy way ahead, including the Monmouth poll.
And I think that suppressed a lot of Republican votes.
And then the day after the election, Monmouth University apologized saying their polling was wrong.
Here it was razor thin all along.
And if we don't have to be a good one.
By the way, I gotta tell you something.
I'm kicking myself over this very issue.
I really am.
And we did have the Republican candidate on the show.
But had I known it was that close, or I if I felt that there was any shot, I promise you, I would have gone in harder.
This time, I'm not taking anything for granted.
I'm going opposite I'm gonna put Lee Zeldon on in New York.
We put the Colorado Senate candidate on already.
We're gonna put the Washington State candidate on.
I'm not leaving anything to chance.
And you know, I I reg, I'll be honest, I regret not doing it the way I should have done it.
I just didn't see it happening.
Does that make sense?
Absolutely.
That that's a lesson learned from that last election.
And also the bellwether.
I blame myself for part of that.
I really do.
Everybody, everybody.
But the bellwether in our state was Steve Sweeney.
The Democrat president of the Senate from South Jersey, where I'm from, he was probably as powerful as Murphy was.
And they booted him.
He's gone.
Ed there, the truck driver beat him.
So that should tell you that people in the state of New Jersey are fed up with the Democrats and fed up with their with the way they run things.
So we have to get out as Republicans.
We cannot look at the polls.
I know there, I know your your pollsters are very good, but we can't rely on that.
We have to get out and vote.
Listen, even if it seems like a long shot, you you gotta go for it.
Republicans need to go big.
Now, I am very happy, and some people hate whenever I say anything nice about Kevin McCarthy, but when somebody does something right or well, you gotta give them credit.
And I know that for the better part of a year, they have been working on a new contract with America.
It's been 28 years.
And I was there MCing the night that Newt became Speaker.
And here is an opportunity for every Republican candidate, especially in the House, to sign their name to and commit themselves to principles.
I'll see the final draft, I guess, in about 10 days or 11 days or so, we expect it.
And when it comes out, I hope every Republican Senate candidate embraces it.
I hope every governor, Republican gubernatorial candidate, embraces it.
It's an ideas-based campaign.
Democrats want to focus on Trump controversy.
I listed 30 of them last night.
30, you know, hyperventilating moments the media thought that they got Donald Trump and we're gonna lock him up.
And I'm I'm sick and tired.
I'm not gonna be distracted and talk about the lies that they're peddling on abortion, the lies they're peddling uh as it relates to January 6th, the lies that they're peddling on all of these issues.
I'm I'm not going down that road.
These people are such hypocrites, they care about violence, but many of them sat silent in the summer of 2020 with 574 riots, thousands of injured cops, dozens of dead Americans.
Uh we don't need your lectures anymore.
We gotta focus on what's happening to the country.
Joe and the radical new Green Deal climate alarmist cultists are killing this country's economy, uh weakening our national security, and we need to do something about it.
This is the opportunity to change.
Republicans have to go on offense.
Yeah, that's right.
And it needs to be an ideas-based campaign.
Absolutely.
It's not enough just to say Joe Biden is, you know, doesn't know that today's Tuesday.
Everybody knows that part.
What are you gonna do that's different?
Yeah, he he's an idiot.
It's you know, he is what he is.
And when we get in office, we have to take care of business.
People have to go to jail for what they did.
I'm sorry.
Or it's just gonna keep happening and ha over and over and over again.
Like Hillary Clinton, you keep saying she's exonerated.
Who was the judge and jury that that let her off?
Comey?
He's no judge and jury.
She could be.
We now are in a time in a space where sadly, and I mean this because the FBI should be the world's premier law enforcement agency.
We are at a point where it's politicized.
And now the DOJ has been weaponized.
Now, Republicans will get power back.
There's enough evidence on Hunter's laptop that warrants a full-fledged investigation, not only of Hunter, of Joe Biden.
Because Hunter implicates his father repeatedly.
And Joe Biden not enforcing our border laws and aiding in a betting law breaking.
That would be an impeachable offense if it was Donald Trump.
And those things all need to be looked into.
But the first order of business has got to be to get the country back on track, get the economy back on track, re not only become energy independent again, but become energy dominant, and we can become a rich country.
There's a lot that we can do.
All right, Lou, I'm gonna let you go, man.
God bless you.
Great admonition.
We appreciate it.

He's always been a street fighter who takes on the system.
And Hannity is doing it today.
Fighting left wing powers who want to stamp out conservative voices.
Fighting fire with fire.
That's Sean Hannity.
All right, let's get back to our phones.
Michael in Pennsylvania.
Michael, how are you?
Good afternoon, Sean.
How are you, sir?
You have a Senate candidate that wants to put a moratorium on an 81 billion dollar industry called energy in your state.
Good luck with that.
Yeah, good luck with all that.
Because uh, dude, I work in the energy sector, I work in renewables uh specifically, and I will tell you we are decades away from this being a reliable source for even 50% of the country.
Uh I've been saying this forever.
If it was by the way, I'm an all of the above guy.
So you work in renewables, what do you do?
I'm an a wind technician.
Okay.
Now, if you can get get the American people, energy's the lifeblood of every economy.
If you can get me cheaper energy, reliable energy, cleaner energy, I'm all for it.
But we're decades of I've been saying it forever.
We're decades away from that point.
I work in this industry, and there's nothing wrong with it.
Um it it's very b dependable when there is conditions permit the production.
But people ask me all the time, how efficient are this thing?
Well, we still get an electric bill.
So what's that tell you?
If these work in the industry now, and you're telling people you're decades away from ever getting to anywhere near the point that we can find a reliable source of energy.
Absolutely.
Uh especially in the wind sector.
Um, You know, these things, the car ones that I work on, they weigh 392 tons.
That's the growth weight.
I would say 80 to 85% of that is steel.
Where do you think all that steel comes from?
You know, you have to manufacture it.
You have got to have it uh fabricated, shipped all by the Eagle Engine.
Uh a lot of this stuff up here is electronic.
Where do you think all that plastic comes from?
What people don't understand is how much hydraulic fluid, how much uh gearbox fluid these things take.
Uh it it's beyond comprehension.
I've had arguments from both sides.
People say, well, just turn them on.
What do you mean turn them on?
It's the window.
Think about it.
It's like I love I love go buy an electric car.
20 grand more, and you gotta destroy Mother Earth and and mine all the minerals with big heavy equipment uh that needs diesel fuel to run.
Uh and by the way, uh it's not easily disposed of either.
And then you have to charge the batteries that they make uh after they they rape and pillage Mother Earth for the mineral minerals, then you have to charge it with the electric grid, and the electric grid is powered by fossil fuels.
So tell me how that makes sense.
Uh we don't have a way to dispose of those batteries either.
There's no recycling for them.
Uh an average Tesla has four to five batteries, and the average cost of each battery could be anywhere from ten to fifteen thousand dollars a piece replaced.
I am on all of the above guy also.
I'm I'm common sense thinking that hey, you know, if there's a better way to do it, I'm all for it.
Show me, I will do it.
But if I can find a better way, you're gonna save me money.
I'm all for it.
If you if it but it has to be reliable.
Look at what is happening in Europe now.
You're they expect for years Europe is gonna Europeans will be spending 30% of their income just to heat their homes.
That is unsustainable.
They're racing back to coal.
And now coal is taking on a premium price because of that.
Anyway, my way, my friend, thank you.
Good call.
We appreciate it.
We'll get to a lot more calls coming up in the next hour as well.
Quick break, right back.
