How do you see the, the, the post-rep- uh, Trump Republican Party, sir?
10:16
I, I think it's gonna be a fascinating, fascinating evaluation.
10:21
You mentioned Glenn Youngkin.
10:22
Uh, I would tell you that, uh, Glenn Youngkin is certainly laying the groundwork for a presidential campaign.
10:28
JD Vance, obviously, uh, is in the running.
10:31
Marco Rubio, uh, is gonna run for president.
10:35
Uh, I think it's gonna be a really interesting discussion, and you are going to have some of the, uh, traditional country club Republicans who tell you, "Yeah, I told you Trump was a bad idea, terrible thing, so let's get back to, uh, our usual way of doing things." And you'll have folks, uh, like JD Vance, and obviously with, uh, so much time under his belt, Marco Rubio, stepping up and saying, "Hey, let me tell you that, uh, here's what President Trump was able to do, and I was happy to be part of the team that got this done and got that done." Uh, but I think it's gonna be a, a really, really, really, uh, involved effort on the part of the Republicans.

9 MINS LATER

19:58
Right
7:28
How do we start to disentangle this a little bit to think about what good leadership looks like as opposed to that? Yeah.
7:36
Well, young people come or people changing jobs.
7:41
It's not necessarily young people come to me all the time.
7:44
And I'm sure to you, Leslie, and to many of the people in the audience or who will watch the show, and they're looking to understand how they should be thinking about changes in their lives.
7:56
Again, let me focus for a minute on career change.
8:01
I think this is sort of a fundamental place where everybody has a decision to make.
8:08
It's not just job or no job, but which job? And you start to see this change in the AI world, which we read an awful lot about in the media today.
12:57
Can you say a little bit about what traits a person should look for, like what makes a good leader? I
88:59
Yeah, Jeff, I'm curious to hear your thoughts on that.
89:03
Yeah, you know, I sit here as somebody who has performed throughout the years any number of traffic stops, car stops.
89:11
I was really taken aback, quite frankly, when the secretary announced he was going to put a pause on this.
89:16
I don't mind anybody coming in After the fact and after incident report saying, OK, was this handled properly? Is it according to protocol? If there's a violation of that, then then you absolutely address it.
89:30
But, you know, to Harry's point about how the entire profession is besmirched and attacked as a result of this, one of the.
89:39
The big arguments out there, and I know both of you gentlemen have heard it, have seen it, have read it.
89:45
People are trying to have people believe that the ICE agents who are out there working somehow are untrained.
92:05
Jeff Gantz, your thoughts.
86:34
They hate America.
86:37
Yeah, I think you're fundamentally right, Todd.
86:39
And you know what? I'm going to throw in some of those weather people because I don't think they got the forecast wrong.
86:45
I think they made up a forecast and put it out there in hopes of keeping people away from the event.
86:52
And then they'd be able to turn around and say, see what a miserable situation this was.
86:57
Nobody showed up.
86:58
Nobody cared about this.
91:11
I don't know if that makes me a bad person or what, but that's where I stand on it.

So are you dancing in celebration yet? Celebration! Are Republicans lighting the victory cigars? And what's next for Virginia? What does the Supreme Court ruling mean for the midterms and beyond?
93:27
Well, what it means for the midterms here in Virginia at the moment is that the congressional seats, as they are, are going to be the ones that are contested.
93:36
It's currently a 6-5 split.
93:39

94:12
And they just said, screw it, we're not checking any of those boxes, and come after us.
94:17
And this is, what does President Trump like to say, blank around and find out? There's a lot of finding out today.
98:44
Quickly, has there been a buyer's remorse out there with Spanberger? Are people, because things happen so quickly and taxes are fast and furious, are you sensing a buyer's remorse from those Democrats that did put her in office?
98:59
Oh, yes, sir.
