One of the real interesting topics of conversation as we all await the Supreme Court ruling today when it comes to birthright citizenship is how the Supreme Court has amassed this much power. We're supposed to be three co-equal branches of government, but anybody, any American can look at it and surmise that that is not really the case at this point in time. Let's get the latest in Supreme Court rulings yesterday before we bring in former and he hopes future U.S. Senator Scott Brown for some discussion. Here's Fox News's chief judicial correspondent, Shannon Bream. That big win the president is celebrating is what allows him to have the authority to dismiss in this case a member of... of the Federal Trade Commission, but that impacts a lot of other federal agencies. Writing for the majority, the Chief Justice John Roberts said this. He says to discharge the duties of his trust, the president must have the assistance of officers he can trust. Neither Congress nor the courts may saddle him with those with whom he cannot work. Now dissenting in the case, Justice Sotomayor said this. She warns, the result is a president who emerges after this decision now with far greater power than ever before. But the court did reign in the president's authority to dismiss Fed Board Governor Lisa Cook. They view the Fed differently, at least in the way that the president attempted to do it here via a letter posted on social media based on allegations of mortgage fraud that predate her appointment to the board. Joining us right now on the HRC, your neighbor credit union guest on is former and he hopes future U.S. Senator, former ambassador to New Zealand as well. Scott Brown with us. Good morning, Senator Brown. Hey, good morning to you and your listeners. Appreciate you joining us for the show. So as I referenced, you know, it is pretty clear that our founders intended there to be three co-equal branches of government. But, you know, to just about every American, they look at it and say, that's just not the case anymore. They are not co-equal branches. If you had to rank the three branches in terms of their power, how would you rank them? Well, I don't think it's, you can rank them quite honestly. If you listen to the Democrats, including Chris Pappas, you know, they want to stack the Supreme Court because they're not getting their way. So the Supreme Court's supposed to call balls and strikes. They're supposed to interpret the laws that Congress sets forth based on, you know, you'd hope you'd have a judge in there that's going to follow the Constitution. But if you look at yesterday, I mean, the president basically won one and lost three. And so. you know, is that unfair? I think it's probably appropriate. The one thing that you were just talking about the ability for him to get rid of the FTC chair, that's something the presidents have been doing and trying to get done a bipartisan manner for decades and many, many presidents. Because if you recall after the new deal, the expansion of these unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats just exploded so presidents would inherit.

these boards that basically don't want to work with him or will try to hurt him. So I think I agree with that decision for sure. So I think that our founders intended Congress to be the most powerful branch of government. judiciary to call balls and strikes and, you know, the president to, you know, to be a Washington-esque type of figure that knew the boundaries of their power and acted when necessary. And to me, as a result of Congress basically being unwilling to do anything because they don't want to vote on things, they don't want to do anything that's controversial. There's gridlock. You could explain it. You could. to kind of dissect why Congress has usurp that power. But judiciary has become the most powerful. As you referenced yesterday, they told the President of the United States three times that, no, we disagree with your standing on this particular topic. So do you agree with that, that the judiciary has become the most powerful? And why has Congress been able, why has Congress not been able to live up to their billing? Well, I respectfully disagree. I think the Supreme Court, the President's won some and he's lost some. I mean, if you look at, you know, it's just the fact that some of the cases that he's bringing forth, either new areas or things that the Democrats just hate and wait until the birthright citizenship. If, in fact, he wins that one, then you're going to hear all sorts of, you know, clamoring to stack the Supreme Court, make Puerto Rico and D.C. states, get rid of the filibuster, a whole host of other things. But right now, I mean, bottom line is you're right. Congress is not doing their jobs, especially the Senate. The House has sent forth about 50 bills. They're just languishing in there. The Senate leadership hasn't put forth any judges, and they're stalling and not pushing forth the president's agenda. Now, some people love that. Some people like that a lot. I think the president was sent there with a majority in the message. You're not only with the electoral colleges, but the, you know, the popular vote. winning the battleground states. So, you know, he should have the ability to bring forth. And when, in fact, the court feels that he's overstepped, you know, they check him, and that's appropriate. Yeah, I was having a conversation with a friend of mine and they said they didn't think that senators really wanted to vote on things or House members because the more you vote, the more of a record you have and the more that record can be either misconstrued or can be reflective of who you actually are as an individual. And based upon your time. in dc is that fair analysis that um that senators if possible want to avoid voting and in particular voting on things uh that could be controversial well you think you sent down there to do a job and you know i read the bill see how they affected our state country debt and deficit and voter regardless of uh you know the outcome politically and you know people get on there and they're protecting their chairmanships they're protecting their special interests i mean you look at

6:24

Chris, for example, and then you look at John. You know, they have the endorsements and the support for all these outside groups, all this money that's coming in from outside New Hampshire. So when they go down there, who do you think they're going to work for? Are they going to work for those special interests and those entities that help them get elected? Are they going to work for the people in New Hampshire? Whereas with me, I don't know anybody anything. It's kind of a refreshing position to be in. And, yeah, listen, they need to do their jobs. They don't like to take controversial votes. You know, and it's kind of sad, quite honestly, that they're not doing their jobs, and everyone else is trying to do their jobs for them, these unaccountable bureaucrats. That's why this decision with the court yesterday gives any president, not just President Trump. I mean, previous presidents have been complaining about this. I remember when I was a senator, they were complaining about these unelected bureaucrats basically running amok. That is Scott Brown, former and he hopes future U.S. Senator joining us on the HRC, your neighbored credit union guest. The president's been clamoring for the Save America Act and has consistently discussed the fact that he feels elections are crooked, rigged, and that the process, you know, doesn't work, except I guess when he has success. Why, in your view, do you think these are these types of bills when it comes to the Save America Act? Obviously, Supreme Court ruling on mail-in ballots yesterday. Do you feel that there is a need and necessity to clean up elections or do elections in New Hampshire and other states largely work well? Well, listen, bottom line is when you walk into a polling place and you're voting, you want to make sure that the person next to you is a U.S. citizen and they're eligible to vote. I mean, Barack Obama just had his library opening, and he needed an ID to get in there. We all know that you need IDs and you need to verify who you are. Now, the fact that the Democrats don't want to do anything of the sort, especially Chris Pappas and our entire delegation, I mean, it's kind of foreign to me. I'm wondering, like, why don't you want to know? the people who are voting are U.S. citizens. You know, if there's any. And I remember when JD Vance was on with Martha Raditz, and they were talking, well, there's only a few, you know, gang members in housing complexes in California. And he said, listen, are you listening to yourself? Right. Is the same thing appropriate for elections? Are there any people who were voting inappropriately? Well, we've had cases of it. There shouldn't be any. So why don't we just get everybody on the same sheet of music and move forward? And then... recognize that we have done a good job making sure people who are U.S. citizens are able to vote. That is former and he hopes future U.S. Senator Scott Brown, joining us on the HRC, your neighbored credit union guest line. Final thing, Democratic Socialism is on the ballot once again out in Colorado today, and there are a lot of progressive Democratic Socialist align types of candidates who are running here in New Hampshire as well. Do you think that New Hampshire could go that route and that we could see progressive candidates at the local level and the federal races have success in this upcoming election?

Well, Zohran Mamdani and all these new Democratic Socialists are now the face of the Democratic Party, including Graham Platner. So you have people like Chris Pappas, who actually look like Ayos, who look like Rush Limbaugh compared to these people. So, you know, he's actually having to go further left, and so is our entire delegation. And, you know, could it happen in certain very liberal parts of New Hampshire? Fortunately, we don't have many. But, yeah, listen, you have to get out there. This isn't JFK's party. This isn't... Clinton or Obama's party. This is the Chris Pappas, Zohran Mamdani, you know, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders party. And, you know, the Democrats, you know, have to determine where they stand. Do they believe in strong borders? Do they believe in having a military? Do they believe in having prisons and having rule of law? These are the things that people need to decide. And I believe in New Hampshire, we are very clear. I mean, as evidenced by the fact that we're the only state in New England, basically, to have... you know, representation down at the big fair down in the mall in D.C. I mean, thank God, you know, we live here, you know, and we have these protections because that's one of the reasons I'm running. I don't want to chip it away and give it to someone like Chris Pappas who's going to be there for 30 or 40 years potentially pushing these crazy, woken, liberal agendas. Men and boys and women and girls' sports, open borders, sanctuary cities, just can't have it. As always, appreciate your time. We'll talk soon. Thanks, guys. We're getting on Scott Brown.com. Thanks. Bye-bye. That is a former and he ups future U.S. Senator Scott Brown with us on the HRC, your neighbored credit union gas line running in the GOP primary, of course, against John E. Sununu.
