WEBVTT - Episode 4652: Tony Katz Today Hour 1 - 08/06/26 0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:10.760 Live from Vall Heartbyer and the Crossroads of America. It's 0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:27.920 Tony Katz today. The deal is so close you can 0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:33.159 almost taste it. A deal with Iran and Omon and the. 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:37.280 Strait of Hormuz and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. 0:00:37.320 --> 0:00:39.560 I hate the fact that I have to start this way, 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:44.360 but I got to assume more. The lack thereof is 0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:47.520 the top story. I don't know. Maybe it is Abdullah 0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:51.559 al said, being the tough guy. It's so adorable. He 0:00:51.680 --> 0:00:56.360 is precious, he really is. He's like having your very 0:00:56.400 --> 0:01:01.880 own Tamagachi. Don't forget to feed him. Or there's Tucker 0:01:01.920 --> 0:01:06.640 Carlson with his ten point declaration of what a political 0:01:06.680 --> 0:01:10.479 party in America should be, which sounds like a lot 0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:14.160 of things we would say, except of course, without the insanity. 0:01:14.160 --> 0:01:17.280 And Marjorie Taylor Green Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, an 0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:18.880 absolute pleasure to be with you. 0:01:19.680 --> 0:01:22.560 I'm going to get into what he said, because. 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:26.200 It's the funny thing is that I think Tucker doesn't 0:01:26.319 --> 0:01:30.160 understand how he's coming across. And I am more and 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:38.279 more convinced that the marketplace for his madness is slight, 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:45.640 very very slight and certainly who he has picked to 0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:51.080 align himself with it puts in the same position. Certainly 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:54.040 when it comes to the idea of war, certainly. 0:01:53.800 --> 0:01:55.120 Comes to what's going on with Iran. 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:57.840 There are people who want to scream America first, with 0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:00.480 all due respect, If taking out a terrorist which that's 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:03.680 trying to kill you isn't America first, I'm not exactly sure. 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:05.200 What is Marjorie Taylor Green. 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:09.480 Again, I repeat myself, no serious political anything is done 0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:12.760 with Marjorie Taylor Green, none. 0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:14.519 Zero. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.120 Tucker has still has the opportunity to be taken seriously, 0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:19.800 far more seriously than her. 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:21.320 But you're gonna align with her. 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.400 Okay, all right, Sure, we're gonna spend even less time 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:29.079 thinking about you. I'm gonna get into that. I will 0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:32.080 get into the tough guy commentary of Abdullah al Sayid, 0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:37.079 because if he thinks that the issue is nobody can 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:41.200 pronounce abdu ra Chlan, well that's not the issue. The 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.720 issue is whether or not you're an Islamo Marxist, whether 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:45.240 or not you. 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:46.120 Have connections to care. 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:48.359 The Council of American Islamic Relations, which is a front 0:02:48.360 --> 0:02:50.919 group for the Muslim Brotherhood, as said by the UAE, 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.359 designated a terrorist group by Florida and Texas, and oh, 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.960 by the way, not a very good group of people 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:59.840 as Islamist apologists. 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.000 My take on that one. 0:03:01.120 --> 0:03:05.760 They may disagree, but you're gonna complain about APAC, Oh honey, 0:03:05.840 --> 0:03:08.240 kit and boo boo, and then you're gonna get tough 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.200 with Mike Rogers, the Republican running. 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:11.880 Yeah, we'll get into that too. 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:15.640 But can I start not even with what's going on 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.680 with the RAN because there's nothing really to report. It's 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.000 the same as it ever was, and the oil prices 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:23.480 are showing this. 0:03:23.880 --> 0:03:26.080 We're actually up this morning. 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:28.400 Like when I was doing my morning show, we were 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:30.760 at seventy five dollars a barrel. Now we're at seventy 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:34.080 seven dollars a barrel midday. 0:03:34.720 --> 0:03:36.440 The brend crude was. 0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:39.680 Just at about eighty now is at eighty two thirty eight. 0:03:39.760 --> 0:03:41.480 The Brench crew is what comes out of the ocean, 0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:43.840 so we're seeing a tickup. 0:03:44.720 --> 0:03:46.480 But put that to the side as well. 0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:53.880 Can we agree The one thing in American society can 0:03:53.920 --> 0:04:00.120 we agree on, please, is f the flock cameras can 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.440 say that, right, Parducier landing, Can I get a ruling. 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:05.800 Yes, as long as the last three letters do not 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:06.360 get spelled. 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.560 Okay, as long as the last three letters do not 0:04:09.640 --> 0:04:10.200 get spelled. 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:14.080 Of the flock camera? Oh that one? Yes? Oh that 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:15.520 I can say. Okay, so I did it right? 0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:15.880 Yeah? 0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:19.000 Yeh that Maybe I got it confused. That could have 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:20.160 just been terrible. 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:26.040 There is a story out of NewsNation newsnationnow dot com. 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:27.760 All eight flock. 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:33.120 Cameras, according to the Wenona Police Department, Wynona, Minnesota, all 0:04:33.120 --> 0:04:33.719 eight of them. 0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:35.240 Which are next to the Wisconsin border. 0:04:36.279 --> 0:04:42.200 We're missing. Somebody stole all eight flock cameras. Now, I 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:46.359 do not condone the theft, and that is wrong. But 0:04:46.440 --> 0:04:50.159 let us discuss the American discussed of the flock camera. 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.279 So what is a flock camera? Great? 0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:57.839 Great, great, great question. This is the idea of surveillance. 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:05.640 So flock safety is the website flocksafety dot com Clear evidence, safer, communities, 0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:11.919 privacy first, and it reads their website right there on 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:17.960 their page. Flock connects communities, businesses and public safety, so 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:21.839 incidents may be understood clearly and decisions can be made 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:26.960 on facts. Okay, I should be clear that what I'm 0:05:26.960 --> 0:05:30.120 about to discuss has nothing to do specifically with the 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:33.560 company Flock. I don't know much about the actual company. 0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.520 I don't mind a company being in business. These are 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.880 not the things that I concern myself with, and they 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:44.240 are not the only company that is in this business. 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:47.680 There is also a company called is it a lawn 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:53.920 aln that does this picture the scenario. You want to 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:58.720 keep your community safe, you want to keep an eye 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:03.080 on things. You work with a group like Flock, and 0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:07.359 they install cameras all around your city and that allows 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:10.680 the local police department to keep the better eye on things. 0:06:11.720 --> 0:06:15.040 And so if there's a criminal on the loose, or 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:19.120 if someone's doing this, that or the other, the police 0:06:19.160 --> 0:06:23.159 can handle it and we can stop the crimes. When 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.520 a private business does this, I have zero issue with 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:30.600 it whatsoever. So I work with a group, right, I 0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.520 work with a group called Who's Your Security? I do 0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:36.560 work with them. I'm very clear about this. They have 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:41.320 a website Catchthebadguys dot com, which their entire world is 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:42.840 how to utilize. 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:45.360 As a matter of fact, Armando, give me a call. 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:51.320 How do you utilize your camera like your existing security 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:55.320 camera with their AI tech? And the philosophy is, why 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:58.640 can't we stop the crime while it's happening, really before 0:06:58.680 --> 0:07:01.240 it gets going, so we can actually arrest somebody instead 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.040 of having a camera saying, oh, look there's the guy 0:07:03.080 --> 0:07:06.040 who robbed me stole all my stuff. You could actually 0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:10.160 do something about it. I have zero issue with that whatsoever. 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:16.360 On the private level, none, absolutely none. And they've got 0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.760 like tools that you can get for this kind of thing, 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.600 and trailers you can rent, like if you have like 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.560 like car lots or construction sites and things like that, 0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:29.360 totally fine, absolutely fine. The prime if you have home 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:32.560 security and you have cameras, that's fine. I have cameras, 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.360 of course I do. I don't like the idea that 0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:38.680 government comes and knock and saying, hey, can we get 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:43.880 access to your footage. That's where it starts to get weird. 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:52.880 I am discussing the idea of government surveilling the citizenry, 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.840 no matter how it is described. In the end, what 0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:03.960 is happening is that local governments are utilizing these cameras 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.800 and putting these cameras up, and oh, the police departments 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:11.239 love them. They're surveiling the citizen ran where I happen 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:15.120 to live. The mayor, she's lovely, by the way, I 0:08:15.200 --> 0:08:17.080 like her. On a great number of subjects. She's wrong 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:21.000 on this. The police department is thrilled with these cameras. 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:24.440 They were able to catch three people who were wanted 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:26.360 from a county just below us. 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:30.320 The only way to know that. 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:34.640 Is if you are surveiling all the people who are 0:08:34.679 --> 0:08:40.760 walking down Main Street and where I live quite literally 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:44.800 Main Street, right, That's the only way it can happen. 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:50.960 The government has absolutely no right to surveil the citizen, 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:55.400 and no citizen should think a rational society has surveillance. 0:08:56.080 --> 0:09:01.200 China has surveillance, NonStop cameras in all plays, at all times. 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.280 They have what are referred to as social credit scores. 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:07.360 Do you smile enough? Did you pick up that piece 0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:10.280 of garbage? Well, if your social credit score isn't high enough, 0:09:10.679 --> 0:09:15.079 no travel for you. 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:15.200 No opportunities for you. 0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:18.720 As a matter of fact, you get less your rights 0:09:19.320 --> 0:09:20.880 to the extent that you can have a right in 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:25.040 a communist nation, whether that be in all of China 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:29.800 or in Manhattan under Bondani, they get taken from you 0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:36.880 because you are not acting appropriately and the camera is watching. 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.080 That is some Philip K. Dick kind of low class. 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:53.280 Stuff that is gross ugly beyond the pale obscenity. This 0:09:53.440 --> 0:09:56.960 is the last thing a society should want. If you 0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.760 want to know the real last thing a society should want. 0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:02.000 What that happens when a society tries to equalize out 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:06.320 in certain ways. You should read Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut. 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:09.400 You can actually see the movie with Julie Haggerty. I 0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:10.080 think it's George c. 0:10:10.160 --> 0:10:10.480 Scott. 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:14.920 It's a short film. It'll turn you, it'll turn your stomach. 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:19.080 But neither here nor there on this subject. We do 0:10:19.200 --> 0:10:21.280 not want a society where we are surveiled. 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:23.160 And I will have. 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:26.720 This conversation with anybody in law enforcement anywhere, at any time, 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.320 whether you're a police officer, whether you're a police chief, 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:35.160 whether you're a sheriff, whether you're FBI retired. I start 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:38.480 with a baseline. It is not the job of the 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:47.320 citizen to make easier the job of law enforcement. When 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:53.079 I say easier, I am saying that my rights do 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:59.360 not get abused, misused, or taken, so it is easier 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.120 for law enforce. Horseman, not now, not Ever. The answer 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:07.280 is no, I understand the role of police. I'm not 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:11.360 a defund the police guy. Was it Bernie Sanders who 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:16.520 just said that, no serious democrat is talking about defunding 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.240 the police. Oh, I know, I've got this to Oh, 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:20.000 it's gonna kill me. 0:11:20.080 --> 0:11:20.880 I'm gonna find it. 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.720 I think Bertie just said that no serious democrat is 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:31.000 talking about defunding the police. Adorable. Of course they are, 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:32.040 and of course they want to. 0:11:32.200 --> 0:11:32.880 I am not. 0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.000 But I'm also not going to have a conversation about 0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:40.520 putting my rights up for grabs. 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:41.120 Or up for debate. 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:46.959 Do you have a right to privacy in the public square. 0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:50.120 We've answered that question really in America by saying no. 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:54.600 If my eyes can see you, you're not private, and 0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.560 a recording device can be seen as nothing more than 0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.200 your eyes. Now I'm paraphrasing this, but I I have 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:06.199 the general concept right that is of the private citizen. 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:12.400 If I am going to name the restaurant and someone 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:15.160 has decided that they're going to take my picture and 0:12:15.200 --> 0:12:17.400 post it, oh look, Tony Katz went here. 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:21.840 First of all, that's weird. But secondly, they can do that. 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:26.440 They can do that. 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:31.200 That's different than whether your government should be able to 0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:37.680 do that. Your government being restricted is what is so great. 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:45.680 That is what matters most. When President Obama complained about 0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:51.400 the Constitution. He complained that it was a charter of 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:55.640 negative rights. It was a negative charter, which is to 0:12:55.679 --> 0:12:58.360 say that the Constitution, if you were to give it 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.960 a read, he talks about what government cannot do to you. 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:06.640 It does not discuss what government must do for you. 0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:10.079 I always thought that was a very frightening and ugly 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.240 thing for him to say. It is really a great 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:17.240 example of how diametrically opposed I am to that philosophy. 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:21.360 I do not want my government to do for me 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:27.240 outside of Article one, Section eight, provide for the common defense, 0:13:27.320 --> 0:13:30.760 promote the general welfare, right solid. 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:33.840 Do I want them to have a military? Absolutely? 0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:35.800 Do I want a government as small and as lean 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.120 as possible doing the basics, Yes, I do. Everything else 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.120 should be up to me. What with the tenth Amendment 0:13:42.200 --> 0:13:44.160 ensuring that the rest of the rights are mine that 0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:46.800 are not actually laid out there within the Bill of 0:13:46.880 --> 0:13:50.960 Rights or within the Constitution itself, it belongs to us. 0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:59.040 Restraining the government was the whole point, and Barack Obama, 0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:06.040 the wait for it, constitutional scholar, seems to have missed. 0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:09.600 He missed the points of the thing. 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:17.120 That's like reading the New Testament, being like so so. 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:21.240 Like, who is this Jesus guy? Again? You have missed 0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:23.320 the point. 0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:26.720 If you're not, if you can read that not under 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:33.800 the Constitution is about constraining government. It is about amplifying 0:14:34.040 --> 0:14:37.760 the concepts of liberty now in and of itself. If 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:41.000 we have a constitution that we are saying that freedom, 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:45.120 absolute freedom, pure freedom is not the thing we were 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:48.160 going for. We are going for a rule of law. 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:51.760 We're looking for the maximum amounts of liberty, which means, 0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:56.480 by definition, a level of guardrails. And we keep those guardrails, 0:14:57.600 --> 0:14:59.920 and we keep them as wide away from each other 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:04.400 as possible. That's a liberty society. That's the society I favor. 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:09.640 Governments can't track you. If they could track you on 0:15:09.760 --> 0:15:12.880 the street just because they put up the cameras well, 0:15:12.920 --> 0:15:16.640 then what happened to the idea of search, Whatever happened 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.360 to the idea of the Fourth Amendment, whatever happened to 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:23.120 the idea of a warrant. They're already keeping tabs on you, 0:15:23.200 --> 0:15:25.600 keeping tabs in your location. And we have seen the 0:15:25.720 --> 0:15:29.720 videos out there, a police officer saying we know when 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.280 you left town, we know when you came back, we 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:31.920 know what you did. 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:33.120 Is that right? 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.200 And the worst is the officer acts like a total 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.760 scumbag in the videos, which must be something they train, 0:15:41.600 --> 0:15:46.240 because no real person should ever act like that. So 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:50.080 there in Wynoda, Minnesota, they tore down the flock cameras 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:54.480 to stop this surveillance. You can't condone the law breaking 0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:55.440 of the vandalism there. 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:57.280 But should you. 0:15:57.320 --> 0:15:59.600 Vote out people who want the flock cameras and should 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:00.720 you vote to remove them? 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:01.600 Yes? 0:16:02.840 --> 0:16:07.120 And should you vote for any any politico who wants 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:12.520 to install them? No? No, you should not keep it here. 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:17.760 This is Tony Katz today. Twelve states now having cyber 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:22.880 attacks on the water supply. Tony Kats Tony Katz today, 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:26.360 a pleasure to be with you everybody at Michigan and Minnesota. 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:29.080 We already in Minnesota, Georgia, New Jersey, and South Dakota 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:34.760 to the list. What's happening is that they are losing 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:39.440 critical remote control capabilities, forcing operators to switch to manual modes. 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:43.240 Hackers are getting access to pumps, valves, and water pressure. 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:45.720 The water itself. 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:49.800 Has remained safe, but you've got the fbiv EPA and 0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:53.200 the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency also known as SISSA 0:16:53.360 --> 0:17:00.440 CISA warning that cyber threat actors had remotely accessed online 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:04.600 infrastructure for water and waste water systems in at least 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:08.320 seven states. Now, this is a good time to remind 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:10.720 people that you don't have to be a prepper. You 0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:12.720 just have to be able to have some water in 0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:14.399 the house to deal with a couple of days of 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:19.919 things all going apot. You are responsible for you, and 0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:22.720 not everything is going to work all the time. There 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:24.600 are not only people trying. 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.080 To do us wrong. Sometimes things break. 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:30.840 If you're not prepared to have a few days of 0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.320 water in the house, what are you doing? 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:36.800 What are you doing? You're just going to depend on 0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:39.880 government to bring you water. You're not going to work 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:41.640 on it yourself. You should work on it yourself. 0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:43.960 I don't know if you've got to be like a 0:17:44.119 --> 0:17:48.840 underground bunker prepper meals for three years, Mrs kind of guy. 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:52.640 I do think that you have to have some level 0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:55.640 of preparedness. But this was the part. 0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:57.200 That made me lose my mind. 0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:03.560 The water agencies were advised to disconnect their operating programs 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:08.440 from the Internet and strengthen their password protections and firewalls. 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:14.440 And I said protections and firewalls passed passwords. 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:17.080 Oh, yes, the tactics. 0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:20.080 While people think this is Iranian backed hackers and not 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:23.240 one hundred percent sure that's what they think. It resembles 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:25.840 a twenty twenty three campaign by a group that was 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:29.200 linked to the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, which tapped into water 0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:34.359 system controllers using default passwords. I'm telling you right now, 0:18:35.160 --> 0:18:38.760 if some water system somewhere has a password of password, 0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:45.439 I want everybody fired today, no pension, nothing, We physically 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:47.840 throw you out, and if you're on the second floor, 0:18:48.280 --> 0:18:51.280 it's gonna hurt because we're still gonna throw. 0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:55.800 Default passwords. What the heck is going on? 0:18:57.280 --> 0:19:01.440 You're telling me that's somewhere the water system of name 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:05.160 that city has the password of one two three four 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:08.840 or because it was extra secure. 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:11.440 One two three four five. 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:23.240 Default password. I jumped out of my chair when I 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:31.280 first read that. That's Do you ever wonder whether or 0:19:31.320 --> 0:19:32.880 not everybody's just gotten stupid? 0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:37.080 Well there could be an answer, at least some. 0:19:37.800 --> 0:19:44.320 I'm Tony Katz, so I found the clip the audacity 0:19:44.359 --> 0:19:51.920 of these people. Bernie Sanders being asked a question from 0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:53.600 the people over there pod Save America. 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:54.320 I think this is. 0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:57.119 Clean producer car producer Land and the finger on the 0:19:57.160 --> 0:19:59.960 dumb button just in case me. I'm Tony Katz the show. 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:05.480 Oh is Tony Katz today? And this was Bernie Sanders 0:20:05.800 --> 0:20:10.560 being asked about. 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:12.400 Funding and defunding the police. 0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:16.320 As a politics has always been focused on the material 0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:19.359 needs of working class people, and I would say that 0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:22.400 to the extent that you've broken from Democratic Party policy, 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:28.159 it's usually around economic issues, healthcare, et cetera. There are 0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:31.280 some DSA candidates today, you know, including some who've won 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:35.360 their primaries the cycle, who've also talked about abolishing prisons, 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:39.320 defunding or even abolishing the police, abolishing borders. You've never 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:42.040 been for any of that. Are you worried that taking 0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:46.400 those positions, which are unpopular with most voters and even 0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:49.560 most Democrats, sort of hurt the movement that you've worked 0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:50.399 really hard to build? 0:20:51.720 --> 0:20:54.520 Well, you know, look, people. 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:57.320 Have different views and what you know as well as 0:20:57.359 --> 0:21:00.000 I do that the right wing that's their job, right 0:21:00.040 --> 0:21:03.639 they will take what one person said and put eighty 0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:05.760 billion dollars of TV ads on it and make it 0:21:05.880 --> 0:21:09.520 claim every Democrats supports that. I'm no serious person. Then 0:21:09.600 --> 0:21:12.040 I know who is running for office believes in quote 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:13.679 unquote defunding the police. 0:21:14.480 --> 0:21:19.359 Stop, just stop. Of course they do. Of course the 0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:22.840 DSA does. Of course these communists do. It isn't some 0:21:22.920 --> 0:21:29.000 Republican boogeyman. Eighty billion dollars worth of ads. It's embarrassing 0:21:29.040 --> 0:21:33.879 from Bernie Sanders. Also in this interview, he looks so 0:21:34.119 --> 0:21:37.320 much like the guys, the judges from the Muppet Show. 0:21:39.359 --> 0:21:42.440 He looks he is a if he had a mustache. 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:44.800 I don't know if it's Stadler or Waldorf. I don't 0:21:44.840 --> 0:21:51.040 know which one it is. But he's really showing his age, truly, 0:21:51.720 --> 0:21:53.840 that a twenty three year old is listening to this 0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:57.359 old man. Here he is lying to you. You have 0:21:57.480 --> 0:22:00.959 candidate after candidate discussing defund the They've been doing so 0:22:01.080 --> 0:22:01.719 for years. 0:22:01.800 --> 0:22:03.159 This isn't some boogeyman. 0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:05.919 And you know it, and he's twenty three year olds 0:22:06.000 --> 0:22:08.480 know it, and these college students know it. And here 0:22:08.520 --> 0:22:10.600 he is lying to you. Why would you buy into 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:13.960 that wall? If Trump lies to you, you say Trump's 0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:17.000 lying to me, Bernie's lying to you. Just say it, man, 0:22:18.400 --> 0:22:22.880 just say it. He's lying to you, plain and simple. 0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:29.240 They really do want to defund the police. That's who 0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:33.320 they are. So that was that was Bernie. Then there 0:22:33.520 --> 0:22:37.600 is Abdul al Sayid el Sayed. I think it's really 0:22:37.600 --> 0:22:40.080 pronounced el Sayed. I do want to say it properly. 0:22:41.040 --> 0:22:43.480 So what he has done is he has won the 0:22:43.480 --> 0:22:49.439 Democratic primary and he has now decided he's going to 0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:53.040 be the toughest guy out there. Oh is he going 0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:59.359 to be so tough, so strong, so vigorous. He's going 0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:03.240 to keep telling everybody that he's not a not a socialist. 0:23:04.960 --> 0:23:07.320 And he goes on a tear. 0:23:09.400 --> 0:23:13.879 He is just playing all sorts of tough guy. And 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:17.959 after he gets the nomination he takes it to the 0:23:18.000 --> 0:23:24.440 microphone and well, I'm gonna share it with you. I 0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:27.199 think again it's clean. They're pretty sure landing, but just 0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:31.560 in case you're ready. Good stuff who will do anything 0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:34.040 Blue Cross, Blue Shield wants him to do, including raise 0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:34.639 your rates. 0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:40.520 Mike Rogers is a guy who introduced legislation to increase 0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:42.639 the flow of opioids. He did that while I was 0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:43.399 in high school. 0:23:44.680 --> 0:23:47.960 Mike Rogers is a guy who's politics and vision and 0:23:48.040 --> 0:23:49.480 perspective are old. 0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:54.320 Mike Rogers is a guy who has never shot away 0:23:54.800 --> 0:23:55.639 from a corporation. 0:23:56.080 --> 0:23:57.000 He could do a favor for. 0:23:57.840 --> 0:24:00.840 Mike Rogers is a guy who believe it or not, 0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:03.360 what back the floor so he. 0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:06.480 Can lick every single boot Donald Trump owns to pay 0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:07.880 for his endorsement. 0:24:08.359 --> 0:24:09.000 I'm soos are. 0:24:09.080 --> 0:24:11.080 If you want a senator's gonna lick some boots, fine, 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:12.200 go vote for Mike Rodgers. 0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:14.159 But if you want a senator who's gonna stand up 0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:15.560 to Donald Trump, then you've. 0:24:15.400 --> 0:24:16.400 Got your option right here. 0:24:19.440 --> 0:24:25.240 He'll stand with care, he'll stand with communists, and everybody 0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:27.679 he disagrees with is a boot licker. 0:24:29.640 --> 0:24:36.280 So tough and so bold. He also said of Mike 0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:46.000 Rogers that if you want to. 0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:49.960 Get tough, it's gonna work out very bad for you. 0:24:54.040 --> 0:24:59.040 I mean, it's an obvious, obvious threat that he is 0:24:59.080 --> 0:25:06.520 putting out here when he says, you're not going to 0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:09.960
