| 0:00.0 | Welcome, it is verdict with Senator Ted Cruz. Ben Ferguson with you. Senator, this show is going to be one that is going to irritate a lot of people. |
| 0:09.9 | The Biden new rule that he wants to put on the American people will redistribute high-risk loans, and that will cost homeowners with good credit more money to get a loan. |
| 0:24.2 | In translation, what he wants to do is give a bonus, reward bad credit, bad credit scores, |
| 0:32.9 | and then those that have good credit will pay higher interest rate. |
| 0:39.4 | This isn't a joke. |
| 0:40.7 | This is redistribution of a new way of doing it. |
| 0:43.8 | I guess you could say, Senator, with wealth, your reaction. |
| 0:47.0 | Well, it's even worse than that. |
| 0:48.9 | So this is a proposed rule that has come from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. |
| 0:52.9 | Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are government-sponsored |
| 0:55.3 | entities that purchase mortgages, and they have an enormous impact, a dominant impact, in the |

| 1:37.4 | if you paid your rent on time, if you've had a home and you paid your mortgage on time, |
| 1:41.4 | even if you've had credit cards and you paid them off. They penalize you. They |
| 1:47.1 | charge you more if you have a good credit score. Now it gets even dumber than that. If not only do |
| 1:56.9 | you have a good credit score, but you've actually been responsible, you've saved, |
| 2:01.3 | you put money in the bank, and you're putting down a 20% down payment, they jack your fees |
| 2:09.5 | up even higher. They charge you more. And I've got to say, look, I've actually found in the last |
| 2:17.3 | two weeks, I've had multiple people come up to me in conversations and raise this with me because this is infuriating. |
| 2:25.5 | This is asinine. |
