fraudulent larry. if 8% of our budget is interest, quit borrowing, cut up the credit cards. you have to balance the budget every day, i had to balance the budget as governor. why is congress the only group that refuses to balance the budget? so we will stop the spending, we will stop the borrowing, we will eliminate the earmarks. and i will veto any spending bill that doesn t take us back to pre-covid levels. that will save us trillions. and then we will go to take as many federal programs as we can, and send them down to the states. that will reduce the size of the federal government, but it will empower people on the ground. i think health care, and think wealth care, think education. if we started doing that. right now, 70% of federal employees are still working from home, three years after covid. 75% of most of our agencies are sitting empty. we are paying for that, we ve got to start getting the waist out of government. this is not them coming to us, saying we need more money. thi
health centers. and if you don t get see, that you can fall into an addiction, we don t have enough addiction centers. and if you happen to be lucky enough to get one of those three, insurance doesn t cover it. so we ve got to start doing that. the second thing is, we have to secure our schools the same way that we secure our airports in our courthouse. and that means we make sure that we have whatever we need to make sure that nothing comes through, bullet-wise or otherwise. we need to have a security officers at the front of every school, we need to have one point of entry, no side or rear and freeze. and then we need to make sure that we have somebody on staff, not a guidance counselor, but a mental health counselor. it does nothing but look to see which kids maybe in crisis.

so first let s have the feds do the job they re supposed to do already. and then let s deal with the cancer in america that no one has dealt with and we have to deal with, and that s mental health. one in four people have a mental health issue. but if treated they can lead a perfectly normal life. 17 of the 17 of the last 18 shootings were all mental health issues. now more teenagers with health issues, stress, anxiety, depression. but yet if someone needs help, there aren t enough therapists. if you go to a therapist, you ve got to pay cash. insurance doesn t cover it. there aren t enough mental health facilities. when people don t get treated for mental health, they get addictions. we don t have enough addiction centers. we have to treat this like the crisis it is. we have to make mental health a number one priority because we
the time allotted, they gave him the gun anyway. it would have been flagged he was not supposed to have one. let s have the feds do the job they are supposed to already, and then deal with the cancer in america that nobody has dealt with and we have to deal with and that s mental health. 1 in 4 people have a mental health issue. if treated, they can have a perfectly normal life. the last 17 of the last 18 mass shootings were all mental health related. and now past covid, you have more teenagers that have issues with mental health than we have ever seen, yet if somebody needs help there aren t enough therapists. if you go to a therapist, you ve got to pay cash. insurance doesn t cover it. there aren t enough mental health facilities.
