Joining us now on WRKO is Aaron Klein the author of fool me twice Obama's shocking plans for the next four years exposed. Aaron Klein welcome to WRKO. What is the shocking plan. There's no one plan that many plans and it's on really all levels. President Obama onslaught on jobs on wages on health care. On immigration overhaul it actually is gonna translate into massive amnesty law making it very difficult for a border it is to do their jobs. On national energy policy live which will include -- a massive new calming and greens stimulus that is the first one did so well. On shot slam as a assuring that and big on incentives stunningly it. -- living wage which means raising the minimum wage across the board on if that's what Obama means because -- -- says it's only. Aren't as this stuff yeah he'll be he'll be able to do through regulation. Some -- The regulations some of it through interagency. Directives for example. Immigration overhaul. We'll include some directives Serb border regions to police and what they can and cannot do anymore. As somebody could it be pushed it depends what happens and in the future of the legislative elections maybe one date through congress and the senate. So I'm not saying that this is going to be 100% exactly. As the plan as Obama will put them but what we have and we'll -- -- All right it is the whip it the wish list but is this specific blueprint for Obama's second term as crafted by the way up I mean it's not opinion we have. All over a thousand footnote. But I'd be very progressive organizations and activists. That -- Obama's first term strategy including the stimulus including that out here. A lot of people I don't understand it Obama and common drop from the sky in 2000 and pay it and start and then seeing what became his first term policies ideas were crafted these are perfected over time well same thing with. It is coming second term on. You're out yeah there's an amalgam of progressive think tanks and other organizations that generate plans. And when he came into office he grabbed onto these plants that had been percolating for a long time he didn't invent all this legislation himself. Yeah well and in fact actually the progressive groups are very instrumental in what became even the Obama administration for example. -- Center for American Progress is called which has been described by time magazine has the idea factory. Of the Obama administration and his as one of many examples I'd say you can transition -- directed his transition he President Obama into the light out. And helped the tech is first term czar as an Obama administration officials so this group and many others. Have been hard outlook report by the -- in massive. Our government is centralization. And and possible confinement to the point where. I actually do that again Obama constantly has referred to economic fairness but he hasn't describe what that means. Well we got exactly what that means we're talking for example. Paycheck fairness. Which would be aware that the US government the federal government would determine. But the value of an individual job including by the late in the private sector and then could dictate what up. Private employer could where living wage which would force all employers including private. To increase the salaries of the nation's workers sit in the woods and -- basic needs like housing like food like utilities like you might think and the average worker will probably think. While that sounds really good they're gonna increased my salary the problem is that. These kind of plan that actually been quiet before which it is surprising they were some of them were tried in the 1990 even in Baltimore. And it led did a local economy is crashing and burning at an anti op is an attitude. So what we hear it in the book and only -- it and it's not have any answers back and we let the reader decide. After that but but we -- his plans. So it's like during his first -- he -- in general idea well now I think is literally the. A director a little bit Aaron Klein is here his book is fool me twice Obama shocking plans. For the next four years exposed I I wanna just get you over hump personally. With me and that is concern that your may be jumping a few steps too far ahead because. I I think it's clear that on both sides of the IL and with it with and every elements of of political belief you know everywhere on the stratosphere believes. There are organizations out there are espousing certain policies and supporting certain policy positions. And when somebody comes in a power they're naturally gonna reach out. Two groups that have plans in place that that line up with their political philosophy but it sounds like. You're going a step further it sounds like you're describing a president. Who is a figurehead. Who's the a conduit through which someone else's -- secure in their plan. What I actually I wrote a book before that I don't unplug the previous book on just mentioning a book that had always 1000 footnotes and what we -- is exactly that that Obama has. For example health care. At this point -- people obamacare -- not invented in 2008 it wasn't even invented in the 2000. This has been percolating since the 1990s. In progressive legislation by progressive thing and and then finally Obama happens to be the vehicle through which. Although I'd look you can't obamacare just -- his name on it but again you did not write it it was written by on the Economic Policy Institute by the progress that. It worried about -- got elected saying he wanted. To push universal health care through so there's no lack of connection between cause and effect there. Liberal guy wants a liberal policy espouses it during the election. Gets elected reaches out of liberals who've written such a policy and uses it as a basis for legislation. I don't feel anything insidious in that. I'm not implying anything insidious side at all what I am doing here is. Giving Obama has specifics second term -- by the same people who give us his first. OK I just wanted to clear because that sounds like a conspiracy theory. And I wanna make an a lot of my listeners. Get a little carried away so if you are saying this is a conspiracy theory this is a guy who will reach out. To those who aren't exactly aligned with him and he'll take the plants that they Britain's -- now. Knowing who he is knowing what they've written weakened extrapolate what the future holds that. Again exactly I'm not imply any conspiracy here that there assembly can. Group out there that is pushing some secret agenda. Although and -- -- when it comes to Obama he is not very clear and he wasn't in 2008 either. About exactly what he would do for example against economic terrorism what in the world does that mean he talks about that time and again. Any uses. Spared -- bearish air fair portion. I'm and it didn't work there or economic parent has popped up. Dozens of times it has his reasons -- of the union address in yet he has not until now laid out exactly what he means exactly what is economic fairness -- It's all these out and give us obviously buried just rhetoric give. The most shocking thing that you think his likely. To be pushed by Obama a second term given. Although things that lineup you know may be his favor progressives think tank or what have you. You know there's so much better -- orders start by outplay you I would stop -- work greens stimulus have to different greens stimulus I would I would start by. I'm believe it or not there's a plan to bring back FDR isn't Works Progress Administration. Which would build roads and bridges which has some holes before I heard you guys talking about that. A look at that has not exactly worked in the past. Generate jobs insists a lot of government spending I'm not my judging -- bad about the planned national infrastructure bank. That would also. Centralize. More. More government funding to build roads and -- This is so I don't what is good what is it -- are also expresses it was Warren is also pushing that bank thing. Yeah not -- -- infrastructure -- it is across the board in fact I'd opt. Earlier today with sorry yesterday with with the senator Republican senator and giving it said that he is. Kind of -- wish you lassie he might he might be pushing national infrastructure. Arab rhetoric and you're search Aaron have you been able to find. What the what the source of the energy behind these things is there are for example the stimulus and we know. That why is the most obvious reason for Democrats who wants -- illnesses because they're voting blocs. Are loyal to them because they take our money and they give it to them. So beyond that is there some other motive for doing things like. You know have in the bank award the bid. The infrastructure banker doing more stimulus one Rory so deeply in debt and just ignoring the fact that we're deeply in debt. -- you -- you can stay in one part of it is a good deal of collection and I mean I found it -- even in the book that. The very authors -- this is quite sucking the very authors. Who helped -- -- these stimulus bill I connect him ducking is something called the Apollo alliance and others. And they are credited by Obama it says. And what they're connected the company that got hundreds of millions of dollars in stimulus funding or even. I'd done boys and who's a top Obama administration official also shockingly in the book we haven't fooled me quite connected up hundreds of millions of dollars in stimulus funding. So you could say about that might be corruption. Also you consider -- -- hard core ideologues who truly believe that this is the best for the country that somehow. I that we in the investing hundreds of millions of dollars in wind turbines and there and and and different kinds of batteries. Will somehow generating dollars for the American economy or if it goes so far as actually believe that is progressive groups want to quash the US economy. It's kind of chain at the US capitalist system and there's something more it'll be believe rebuilding written a socialist utopia. So you can go and always I personally think dead dead. A lot of these ideologues who really believes that that this will work. And I can -- -- hit it in the Middle East where I usually broadcast from where there are a lot of people who constantly push the exact same on policy. That had not only belt that belt miserably -- in -- -- way is. Many times and yet they keep pushing at because that their ideology. So combination of ideology and political pressure I've I've got to wrap up but I just wanna ask you quickly about the green jobs thing. It seems to me the green jobs thing is an attempt to shift. Cash flow. -- huge amounts of cash flow out of the oil industry which are presumably are Republican oriented industries in -- leftist industries. Is says so even though things like Cape Wind are obvious bad investments -- are -- you're gonna lead to utter failure they're being pushed and invested in. By the left so if you can take government money and shove it there are your building the power base of the last forty think about that. What by the way they also have a lot of that same agenda with immigration reform and where. You I'd take undocumented workers as they call them illegals and this is -- and Obama's second term. And you give them amnesty and there's even a plan by the way to register them immediately and what. Obviously a lot of American -- registered Democrats than you can has -- Democrat rule for the long term you have to -- -- stimulus by the way it is not just taking money from the oil industry. We have shot plan isn't the only place to take money from the military. And literally it. All spelled out and these the same groups that helped craft the first term military agenda. Take it from the military for a new -- stimulus at a degree in the military so that period that the. All right tiger what are the greening in the military it's pretty bizarre stuff -- Aaron yeah thank you the book is fool me twice. Obama shocking plans for the next four years expose I assume it's available in all the usual places Aaron. Yeah just get yesterday available everywhere you website where you spell some of the south.
