WEBVTT - Tony Katz Today Full Show - 08/07/26 0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:07.880 Line from ball hertbind and the. 0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:11.920 Crossroads of America. It's Tony Katz today. 0:00:16.920 --> 0:00:20.000 Yes, So today the President signed these two executive orders 0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:24.720 here relating to birthright citizenship and birth tourism. As the 0:00:24.720 --> 0:00:30.000 President mentioned, the Fourteenth Amendment was passed exclusively in the aftermath. 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:32.519 Of the Civil War, so to ensure that the children 0:00:32.520 --> 0:00:33.880 of slaves of these citizens. 0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:36.400 It had no other meaning and purpose out side of it. 0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.800 And that's been clear obviously since the day that it 0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:40.360 was passed. You can go back and you can read 0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:43.919 the congressional debate. This is not something that's even seriously 0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:45.160 contested by anybody. 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:46.760 The President is. 0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:50.479 Using his authority as commander in chief, designed first and 0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:53.880 executive order using the new ruling the Supreme Court issued 0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:57.200 to expand the definitions of people who are ineligible for 0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:01.480 birthright citizenship. That includes, for example, alien enemies of the 0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:05.800 United States, members of foreign parist organizations, and large categories 0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.400 of people who lobby and act of behalf. 0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:09.000 Of foreign governments. 0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:12.000 And so with taking this action, it ensures that large 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:15.920 numbers of people who wrongly would be getting birthright citizenship 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:18.200 will no longer be eligible for those benefits. 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.720 Anybody upset with this doesn't understand what the Supreme Court said, 0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:27.679 certainly doesn't understand what Kavanaugh said in part of his descent. 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:32.520 If you're upset with the President moving forward on executive orders, 0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:36.600 if you're upset with Senator Jim Banks moving forward with legislation, 0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:42.360 you don't understand what was said. What you believe is 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:46.200 that we should accept any abuse of the nation that comes, 0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:46.880 and that the. 0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:51.600 Constitution is a suicide pact. It is not, and we 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:52.920 should act accordingly. 0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:56.400 Tony Katz Tony Katz today, guys, so good to be 0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:56.640 with you. 0:01:56.760 --> 0:01:57.560 Thanks for being here. 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.680 Find everything at Tony Katz dot com, livestream on YouTube 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:03.920 and rumble. Look for Tony Katz on Twitter, which is 0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.760 also known as x Tony Katz Facebook, Tony Katz Radio. 0:02:07.840 --> 0:02:14.960 Two different conversations here on birthright citizenship from the President 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:21.480 to different executive orders. And we can agree that someone 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:25.480 this is you me sitting on a bar stool. People 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.840 plan having their baby in the United States when they live. 0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:29.400 In another country. 0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.560 And I've always lived in another country, so they could 0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:35.840 take advantage of American citizenship. That's messed up. That's not 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:38.800 its purpose, and we should do something about that. What 0:02:38.880 --> 0:02:42.120 the Supreme Court said in their decision on birthright citizenship 0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:47.120 is that, yeah, you should do something about that, which 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.480 is really what the Brett Kavanaugh descent was all about. 0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:51.440 But the. 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:58.320 Argument was that the Constitution says born in the United 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:03.160 States and subjects to the jurisdiction. And what the Court 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:04.959 said is born in the United States, is born in 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:08.640 the United States and subjects to the jurisdiction thereof, they 0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:09.520 didn't really touch. 0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:14.800 I found that to be a questionable stance. But what they. 0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:17.959 Opened the door for is the thing that we should 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:18.840 at least approve of. 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.200 And this is the hallmark of the John Roberts Court. 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.080 I didn't say it isn't frustrating, and I'm also not 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:29.200 saying that it's totally proper. When it came to Obamacare 0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:34.280 and allowing Obamacare to exist, what they said was it 0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:38.680 could exist as attacks. Now that was not for the 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:43.360 role of the Court to decide. If these wanted to 0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:47.600 be a tax, they could go about passing attacks. They 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:51.160 could do such a thing. But what they did was 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:53.520 say specifically, this is not a tax. And when the 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.240 Court said it could exist as a tax, they said, okay. 0:03:56.000 --> 0:03:59.560 It's a tax. The Court found a way for it 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.600 to exist. And that is where a lot of us, 0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:03.600 going back a great. 0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:06.080 Number of years, have a tremendous amount of disagreement with 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.160 the Supreme Court on Obamacare. 0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:11.840 I have a disagreement with this constantly. 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:15.960 For example, the Obergafel decision, which is about same sex marriage. Oh, 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.119 this one gets me in trouble all the time because 0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.040 some people don't want to listen if we want to 0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:26.640 pass laws that allow for same sex marriage, pass laws 0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:29.760 same sex marriage. If you remember going back to when 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:34.480 this was happening, was already winning in the States, it 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:35.200 was sweeping. 0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:39.520 There was no real issue about it none. 0:04:40.400 --> 0:04:43.520 But what the Obergafel decision said is that the right 0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:49.080 to same sex marriage exists, which it does not. They 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.480 created it out of hole clock. This is my argument 0:04:51.480 --> 0:04:55.479 against the decision. It's that it's unfounded in the Constitution, 0:04:56.800 --> 0:04:58.880 and you could have just passed laws about it and 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:03.760 we would not have this issue today. My argument is 0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:10.320 totally one based on system. Why did I oppose Roe v. 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:15.680 Wade Because what happened to states' rights? What happened to 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.159 the very idea that states can make this decision? Different 0:05:18.160 --> 0:05:22.800 states could do different things. They were the DA Dobbs decision, 0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.880 which then led to the overturning of Roe v. 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:30.280 Wade, didn't end. 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:35.919 At all, did not end in any way abortion in 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:36.719 the United States. 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:41.200 There's still plenty of states that allow it. But it 0:05:41.240 --> 0:05:43.080 was the overreach by the. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.080 Supreme Court back in seventy two, seventy three, seventy two, 0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:48.960 seventy three. It was their overreach. And you know who 0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:54.560 agreed with me, the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. I believe 0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:58.680 there are moments where the court is overreached. Has she said, 0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:02.440 definitely went overreaching, that decision went too far, went to extreme. 0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.400 But in these other cases you're talking about inventing something. 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:13.800 In the case of birthright citizenship, they certainly did not 0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:17.320 decide to take a deep, detailed look into and subject 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:21.599 to the jurisdiction thereof when we talked about the fourteenth Amendment. 0:06:22.360 --> 0:06:24.719 But what they left was the door open to this 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:30.000 concept of if you Congress, this is your job. After all, 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.040 you know, it's Donald Sutherland an animal house. 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:36.839 I'm serious, this is my job. People, if you want 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:38.520 to go about creating laws, you can. 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:43.800 This brings us to Senator Jim Banks, who did exactly this, 0:06:44.360 --> 0:06:48.320 introducing the Citizenship Act. Of twenty twenty six to end 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:52.640 birthright citizenship for children of undocked immigrants and birth tourists. 0:06:53.160 --> 0:06:54.599 Now, they all want to talk. 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.599 About what's the difference between a tourist and a birth tourist, 0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:00.400 and we'll get to that in a moment. But what 0:07:00.440 --> 0:07:05.120 we're saying here is is that citizenship is not for everybody, 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.680 and we must pare it down, and we can do 0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:14.280 this via the legislative process. The Court challenged Congress to 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:18.080 do this, and Senator Jim Banks took up that. 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:20.080 Fight. 0:07:21.440 --> 0:07:25.400 This is Stephen Miller and standing next to President Trump 0:07:25.480 --> 0:07:29.880 in the Oval, explaining these two executive orders on birthright 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.280 citizenship that he assigned. 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:35.480 The second action that he's taking, which is especially historic, 0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:38.920 is for the first time ever in American history, to 0:07:39.160 --> 0:07:43.200 ban birth tourism. So I want you to really let 0:07:43.200 --> 0:07:45.200 that sink in. This has been some of the people 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.240 have talked about, not only for years, but for decades, 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:51.400 the idea that people come here pretend to be a tourist, 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:53.720 pretend to be a visitor, saying they want to go 0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:57.200 to Disneyland, they want to go visit a monument or 0:07:57.200 --> 0:07:59.280 go to a national park. But the real reason they're 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:03.120 here is to have a child, to make that child 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:06.080 with an automatic citizen leave our country. 0:08:05.760 --> 0:08:07.440 And then have a US citizen child. 0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:08.360 It gives them. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:12.720 Access out of this broken system to welfare benefits, ultimately. 0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:14.080 To the voting booth, and all the other. 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.560 Rights and privileges that belong solely to Americans. 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:20.680 So that practice of birth tourism is as of the 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:23.679 signing of this order hereby band. 0:08:24.000 --> 0:08:25.440 And what that means is. 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:28.160 That no one in the world is any. 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:32.440 More allowed to obtain a visa for this fraudulent purpose. 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:35.200 It is probably and President Trump has done many historic 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.280 things on immigration, too many to listen now. Seal the 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:44.360 southern border, shut record deportations, record integrity, stopping foreign terrorist entry, 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.920 record reduction in drug seizures, dismantling the criminal cartels, dismantling 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:52.480 the gangs. For everything he's done that has been so unprecedented, 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:55.000 I would put this in the top three in terms 0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:57.480 of importance because it ends what has been one of 0:08:57.559 --> 0:09:01.520 the gravest and most egregious abuse that of the American system, 0:09:01.559 --> 0:09:04.000 and it keeps the American citizenship sacred. 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:09.880 Now, I happen to agree with Steven Miller on that point, 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:14.240 but I want to address the people who are offended. 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.040 And appalled by what it is that they're seeing. 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:26.760 First, as I made clear, the Supreme Court said, intimated, 0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.400 if you want to go about changing the law, go 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:31.040 right ahead. 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:38.280 That's up to you. Go do it. You have that power. 0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:39.240 This was the. 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:43.160 Argument on the Obamacare case. If you want to get 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:45.600 rid of this tax, go change the law. It doesn't 0:09:45.640 --> 0:09:48.920 matter what we said. You're allowed to change the law. 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:54.360 Your Congress, go to it. You gave us a piece 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:56.600 of legislation to look at. And so what is the 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.400 constitutionality here? We said, as a tax, it's constitutional? 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:05.560 When there it is. The argument against. 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:10.319 The argument to say it's wrong to end birth tourism 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:14.560 is to say it is all right to manipulate the 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:19.839 American system, to manipulate the US constitution, and to have 0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:22.160 children who will never live in the United States, never 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:24.480 be United States citizens, and will never have a loyalty 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:27.960 to the United States. It is okay to have them 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.640 growing up and name the country and then have them 0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:39.800 go through that laundry list that Stephen Miller just listed out, voting. 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:43.359 Being a key amongst them. 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.680 If you are in favor or you are accepting of 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.720 the idea of children being born here, living in another 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.839 country for eighteen years, and then voting in our elections. 0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.280 I would say, you're somebody who wants to do away 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:59.280 with Western civilization and wants to end America. And the 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:06.200 answer is no. Now I see someone on the chat 0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:13.400 room saying there's no birth tourism. Listen, we can't lie. 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:19.199 If you don't think that there is any birth tourism 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:25.600 that takes place in the United States from China, you 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:31.120 are flat out lying to everyone, including yourself. I want 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:33.560 to be clear. It is a lie told by liars. 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:38.400 Of course it happens. This has been a story in 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.000 California whole, all neighborhoods. 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:46.319 Where they have this happen. This is the. 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:49.960 Associated Press going back to twenty twenty four. 0:11:50.200 --> 0:11:52.640 You know how hard this was to find. This wasn't 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:53.679 very hard to find. 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:59.360 California pay convicted in Chinese birth tourism scheme. To say 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:03.080 it isn't happening is a lie told by liars, and 0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:09.040 you have to call them liars, liars, frauds, bs artists. 0:12:09.240 --> 0:12:11.600 I don't care. And you have to do it. If 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:13.439 they're family and you have to do it with their friends. 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:15.560 You have to do it on social media, or honestly, 0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.760 you could just delete them because they're tools, and you 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.920 have to do it. If you're somebody who's fortunate enough 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:26.720 like me to be on air and fortunate enough to 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:28.240 be able to show up in some of these cable 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:32.479 news outlets and engage in pushing back against these fraudsters, 0:12:35.559 --> 0:12:39.160 that's the story, and you must. 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:40.240 Push back on these things. 0:12:40.920 --> 0:12:45.280 It is clear and it is obvious that allowing for 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:49.480 this creates the problem, the opportunity for the problem. How 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:53.520 many times do we talk about voter fraud. You'd rarely 0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:56.319 see somebody showing up to the voting booth claiming to 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:59.719 be somebody else, But you see ballad stuffing. This is 0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:03.040 what the problems with with mail in ballots. You see 0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:06.640 ballot harvesting, you see lots of issues. You see people 0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:09.640 go to jail for this thing. And what the does 0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:13.320 the left do? The left says, this doesn't happen, and 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.240 we don't need voter ID and we don't they want 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:17.120 to create. 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:18.120 The opportunity for fraud. 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:23.920 By allowing these things to occur, you are allowing for 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:28.840 the opportunity for fraud. Why would anybody allow for the 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:34.199 opportunity for fraud? Why in the world would you do it? 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:37.400 The last questions as silly, is well, how many times 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.760 has it happened? Once is enough? 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:45.520 You wouldn't allow this to happen in any other part 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.120 of your life, not once. 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:52.640 Not Ever, you wouldn't allow the opportunity for something like 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:56.960 this in any part of your life at all. Yet somehow, 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:00.920 when it comes to voting, yes it's fun. When it 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.200 comes to the safety and security of the nation, yes 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:07.680 it's fine. I did not know that something this basic 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:09.760 would be part of the culture war. But okay, it's 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:10.480 a culture war. 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:18.680 I'm in. I'm in. We win, you lose. That's the story. 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:22.480 That's the way it has to be. This is the 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:24.720 right to move and the right maneuver. 0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:28.280 And anybody who actually cared about the country or favored 0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:29.280 the country. 0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.239 Would be completely in agreement. 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:38.480 Anybody who favors the destruction of the country, who favors 0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:43.320 the manipulation of elections, who doesn't care how many false 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:49.280 or fraudulent votes come through, They'll be fine with whatever happens, 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:51.680 because destruction of the nation is the name of the game. 0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:54.440 These are bad people. These aren't even American people. As 0:14:54.440 --> 0:14:58.640 far as I'm concerned. I didn't say you had to 0:14:58.760 --> 0:15:01.520 like a political party, you had to think a certain way. 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:06.560 We're having a very baseline conversation here. What do you 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:08.760 do to protect the vote? And what do you do 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:12.520 to say a citizen as a citizen someone born in 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:17.480 the US who lives their life in another country under 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.000 that's country's practices, and then as the ability to vote 0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:26.440 in our elections, that's not a citizen. The court said 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:31.160 they can be considered a citizen. I say we can 0:15:31.240 --> 0:15:35.080 change this. Senator Jim Banks says we can change this. 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:37.520 And I argue that the people who don't want to 0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:40.240 change this are the people who want to do harm 0:15:40.280 --> 0:15:43.200 to the United States or open up the opportunity and 0:15:43.280 --> 0:15:46.120 the capacity for harm to be done to the United States. 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.560 I think we should stop them. I think we should 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:54.560 cut them off at the pass. So let's let's get 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:58.760 this legislation through. I don't know these executive orders will hold, 0:15:58.800 --> 0:16:03.000 by the way, I don't know if some signing by 0:16:03.040 --> 0:16:09.320 the President makes this happen. But this is the direction 0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:13.920 to go into. This is the direction. I'm Tony Katz. 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:19.200 This is Tony kats today. So here's the update regarding 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:31.680 around Nothing's new. There's absolutely nothing new Iran thinks they're 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:33.840 in charge. We think there are a. 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:34.800 Bunch of low lifes. 0:16:35.360 --> 0:16:42.400 And that's that's it. That is it. That's the Iran update. 0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:46.240 Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, what's going on? 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.240 Everybody? Good to be with you. 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:53.280 Oh and breaking in the last hour or so, Senator 0:16:53.400 --> 0:17:00.480 Bill Cassidy, who has no love for President Trump, is 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:03.560 going to back Todd Blanche as Attorney General. 0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:08.560 And vote in his favor. This is going to happen. 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:11.359 This is going to happen. I don't know. 0:17:13.520 --> 0:17:15.800 Where else we are so so far, you have Collins 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:27.800 opposing Blanche and now Lisa Murkowski. I was going to 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:32.040 say something very rude, and I decided, because I'm a professional, 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:34.359 I won't do that. But if you see me walking 0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:38.520 down the street, ask me and I'll tell you. So 0:17:38.640 --> 0:17:48.280 Murkowski opposes Cassidy is in favor. The question becomes about 0:17:48.400 --> 0:17:52.760 Mitch McConnell. Allegedly Mitch McConnell's now home and recovering, and people. 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:54.080 Said, oh, I talked to Mitch McConnell. 0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:58.040 He's doing great. This whole thing is so weird. The 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:02.080 Mitch McConnell thing is weird. The Max Miller thing is 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:06.520 weird because Max Miller is the guy accused of putting 0:18:06.560 --> 0:18:10.680 a gun at his ex wife's head and his ex 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:14.080 father in law is the senator from Ohio, Bernie Moreno, 0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:17.480 it's a really, really weird story. 0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:19.480 But he did not drop. 0:18:19.280 --> 0:18:21.640 Out of this race in a time where Republicans could 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:22.720 easily replace him. 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:25.000 So now there's a whole thing they are going on 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:25.600 with the House. 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:29.080 He is not going quietly into that good night, and 0:18:29.119 --> 0:18:35.040 he's not presenting himself well either. But with McConnell, is 0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:38.840 McConnell going to vote on Todd Blanche? Is he someone 0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:41.239 considered because if you lost two in a fifty three 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:45.679 forty seven Senate, now you're fifty to fifty, well you're 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:49.360 fifty forty seven, but you get my point, while you're 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:53.679 fifty forty nine in this case, No wait, no, I 0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:56.160 take that back. You'd be three down because McConnell, you're 0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:59.040 fifty to fifty. I did the math right, and now 0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:00.760 you need the tie break. You can't afford to lose 0:19:00.760 --> 0:19:07.800 anybody else. There's really no reason, none, for anybody to 0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:14.920 be opposed to Blanche. You cannot you cannot state that 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:18.960 Merrick Garland was okay, But Todd Blanches. You can't do it. 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:21.399 By the way, Jeffrey in the chat room, you're right, 0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:21.760 it would be. 0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:26.480 Fifty forty nine because if if McConnell's not there, he's 0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:28.800 a no vote, but he's not. He's a non vote, 0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.600 but he's not a no vote. There we go, it 0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:34.119 would be fifty forty nine. He still can't afford to 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:36.000 lose anybody else. That was my point. 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:39.320 Man. That took a lot. I need a drink. I 0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:40.640 do maybe two. 0:19:41.119 --> 0:19:44.480 This is Tony Katz today. I don't enjoy talking about 0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:50.040 Zoron Mumdani. The communist Islamists, I say Islamists. Some people 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:53.640 are now into islamo Marxist. It's just too many, too 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:57.560 many things. One thing, picket is Lamists are communists. They're 0:19:57.600 --> 0:19:58.200 working together. 0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:00.960 This Red Green alliance is very very real, and when. 0:20:00.840 --> 0:20:03.359 They destroy Western civilization, they will fight each other and 0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:04.640 the Commedis are gonna lose. 0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:07.800 We all understand this, right. The communists are gonna get 0:20:07.800 --> 0:20:11.879 their asses kicked. They're gonna lose so bad. 0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:16.919 They are gonna lose like Purdue against Indiana in an 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:17.880 oaken bucket game. 0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:18.960 Now, for those of. 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:22.480 You who are not from here, let me say, for 0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:27.880 the record, this is a dig on the new athletic 0:20:27.960 --> 0:20:32.480 director Tommy McClelland, who made one of the great blunders 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:37.840 I've ever heard, and I have argued publicly that firing 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:40.560 him is on the table. Tony Katz, Tony Kats today. 0:20:40.560 --> 0:20:42.119 Good to be with you. I will get to that. 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:45.680 Ed Morrissey joins me right now from hot air dot com. 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:53.720 He appreciated my big ten humor. I bring up Mom Donnie, 0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:55.920 and I don't you like to talk about New York 0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:58.840 because it gets too much play. But what's important here 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:01.159 is that how this is trying to spread across the 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:02.600 country an election after election. 0:21:03.359 --> 0:21:05.600 But it was a really interesting story in Staten Island. 0:21:05.640 --> 0:21:05.760 Now. 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:07.680 Stotton Island is one of the boroughs of New York 0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:11.280 where Mom Donnie is mayor, and it is has always 0:21:11.280 --> 0:21:15.000 been a conservative, if not Republican stronghold. These are very 0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:17.560 pro America people and they don't see themselves as the 0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:19.720 rest of New York and if they could break away, 0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:25.080 they would. They had an event for a local police department. 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:28.000 It was a turnout with the neighbors kind of event, 0:21:28.920 --> 0:21:32.880 and Mamdani showed up and after sixty seconds of speaking 0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:40.560 gets booed off the stage, gets booed off the stage. Yeah, 0:21:40.600 --> 0:21:45.399 and it's embarrassing, it's humiliating for him. And then comes 0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:52.399 the story that Mam Donnie, it turns out, has a very. 0:21:52.040 --> 0:21:53.920 Very very thin bit of skin. 0:21:54.880 --> 0:21:57.959 And this was the story front page of the New 0:21:58.040 --> 0:22:01.400 York Post. Mam Donnie is thin skinned and hyper sensitive 0:22:01.400 --> 0:22:05.760 in private, in private, despite unflappable social media image. 0:22:06.280 --> 0:22:10.640 And my argument, ed, is that's where all these communists. 0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:13.439 Are, That's just all these Islamis are, because none of 0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:17.320 them can actually handle an actual discussion of what it 0:22:17.400 --> 0:22:18.240 is they believe. 0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:20.840 Is there a tide. 0:22:20.480 --> 0:22:23.760 Turning based on what you can see regarding Mom Donnie 0:22:23.760 --> 0:22:24.960 in New York and. 0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:26.760 Is that now flowing through to the rest of the nation. 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:29.040 I'm not sure about New York City. 0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:31.720 I'm honestly not sure about whether there's a tide turning 0:22:31.720 --> 0:22:32.720 in New York City or not. 0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:34.200 Think it's too early to tell. 0:22:34.240 --> 0:22:36.680 But I mean, we haven't had side elections or by 0:22:36.720 --> 0:22:40.680 elections or anything else like that. And frankly, New York 0:22:40.720 --> 0:22:43.200 has been turning kind of a radical for a while now. 0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:47.320 They just nominated you know, Daria Lisis Chevalier and a 0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:52.320 couple other DSA people, you know, outright DSA people for 0:22:52.520 --> 0:22:55.160 the US House, and they're going to win those districts, 0:22:55.160 --> 0:23:01.320 so they'll be sitting in Congress next January unless there's 0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:05.280 something really remarkable that goes on in those heavily Democratic districts. 0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:08.560 That's baked into the cake. So I'm not necessarily sure 0:23:08.560 --> 0:23:09.440 about in New York City. 0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:12.560 I do think though, that we might have seen peak 0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:17.479 DSA around the country. I would point to what's happening 0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:20.240 in Michigan, what happened in Michigan this week, which was 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:25.120 that abdulah Sayed was supposedly had all this momentum behind him. 0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:27.760 You had five different polsters that had him up by 0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:32.080 double digits in a Democrat primary within two and three 0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:35.920 weeks of the actual primary vote, and he barely won 0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:39.720 the nomination, didn't get to fifty percent, barely won against 0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:40.320 Tiley Stephens. 0:23:40.359 --> 0:23:42.960 Haley Stevens ends up winning Wayne County, which. 0:23:42.760 --> 0:23:47.560 Is Detroit, which is remarkable that she won that county 0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:50.280 and still didn't win the nomination. And that just goes 0:23:50.320 --> 0:23:52.240 to show you that this is really a phenomenon that's 0:23:52.280 --> 0:23:53.680 really around college towns. 0:23:54.040 --> 0:23:54.240 Right. 0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:56.480 And I've been arguing this all along, which is that 0:23:57.240 --> 0:24:01.160 this is only going to work in really concentrate blue bubbles. 0:24:01.480 --> 0:24:04.440 Right when you get statewide in a state like Michigan, 0:24:04.560 --> 0:24:06.560 or if you want to go over to nearby Wisconsin 0:24:06.600 --> 0:24:11.120 where Francesca hang is running for the Democrat nomination for governor, 0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:12.119 that's next week. 0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:16.280 Once you go, once you go statewide, that dissipates. 0:24:16.320 --> 0:24:18.399 And I think that because all of this stuff is 0:24:18.400 --> 0:24:21.720 getting exposed about the DSA's actual agenda, I mean, they're 0:24:21.960 --> 0:24:25.320 explicit agenda. You can look at their explicit agenda and 0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:27.720 see that what they're talking about is eliminating the Senate, 0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:31.160 eliminating the presidency as we know it now, basically throwing 0:24:31.160 --> 0:24:34.600 out the Constitution, going to a House of Representatives that 0:24:34.680 --> 0:24:39.280 acts more like a ball up bureau, and imposing a 0:24:39.800 --> 0:24:45.680 no private property type of system on America, probably by force, 0:24:45.720 --> 0:24:47.760 because that's the way it it would have to proceed. 0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:51.760 I think people understand now that these people are actual nuts, 0:24:52.000 --> 0:24:52.960 they're radicals. 0:24:53.520 --> 0:24:54.880 And right now you're. 0:24:54.800 --> 0:24:56.399 Seeing the media talk about this as a you know, 0:24:56.480 --> 0:24:58.920 Republicans are doing a red scare. This isn't a red scare. 0:24:58.960 --> 0:25:01.720 This is code red, by the way, and this is real. 0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:04.240 Let a quick thing to go over here, because this 0:25:04.440 --> 0:25:07.800 just popped up on my feed as a graphic. 0:25:08.119 --> 0:25:09.520 It looks a little pornographic. 0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:11.679 It's not meant to and I'm not trying to be 0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:16.239 pornographic with this graphic. There is a red line at 0:25:16.280 --> 0:25:18.960 the top and a blue line at the bottom, and 0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:20.120 the red line is. 0:25:20.200 --> 0:25:22.760 L Sayed and the blue line is Haley Stevens. 0:25:23.600 --> 0:25:27.280 This was the polling in Michigan, and then it got closed, 0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:28.760 and then it spread a little bit more, and then 0:25:28.840 --> 0:25:33.199 on election day it's el Sayed the Islamist or the 0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:36.040 Islamist adjacent by one percent. 0:25:36.320 --> 0:25:39.800 So to your point, this. 0:25:40.280 --> 0:25:42.639 Did not work out the way any of the pollsters 0:25:42.680 --> 0:25:44.919 said it would, and that we should really discuss what 0:25:45.000 --> 0:25:47.200 it is that we're getting in terms of the polling. 0:25:47.560 --> 0:25:50.240 And we have discussed here what a huge problem this 0:25:50.400 --> 0:25:53.320 creates for else. I had for the Democrats to win 0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:58.800 against Mike Rogers, because Democrats the forty seven percent plus 0:25:58.840 --> 0:26:01.480 who voted for Haley Stevens, who is no peach by 0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:02.000 the way, the. 0:26:03.640 --> 0:26:04.360 Representative. 0:26:04.400 --> 0:26:06.560 I mean, I don't know how you vote for somebody 0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:10.320 who gives you such incredible gems like this one. 0:26:10.400 --> 0:26:13.000 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy 0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:15.359 and a little bit of sicket to them. 0:26:15.600 --> 0:26:19.040 I don't I don't know. I don't know how you 0:26:19.080 --> 0:26:19.560 do that. 0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:24.040 I also don't know how you vote for a guy 0:26:24.280 --> 0:26:27.960 supported by Hassan Piker. I edited this pretty well. Their 0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:31.280 producer Landa but finger on the dumb button. The RNC 0:26:31.560 --> 0:26:34.360 put this out about him talking about black voters. 0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:36.680 Would black people care about? 0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:36.920 Oh? 0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:38.959 Black people care about this? Is black people care about that? 0:26:39.040 --> 0:26:39.119 Like? 0:26:39.160 --> 0:26:41.520 Shut the fuck up. That's not how politics works. 0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:44.919 Oh well, Hassan, how dare you like it or not 0:26:45.040 --> 0:26:46.440 black people care about this issue? 0:26:46.480 --> 0:26:49.120 It's like it's such a stupid stance. 0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:52.720 Any other black folk want to engage in radical activist 0:26:52.760 --> 0:26:53.280 language in. 0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:57.800 This freaking chat suck? Yes, dude, it's because I'm racist. 0:26:57.960 --> 0:26:59.920 That's why. It's because I'm racist. 0:27:00.119 --> 0:27:00.320 Dude. 0:27:00.440 --> 0:27:03.680 Go back to a better time when lynchings were happening. 0:27:04.000 --> 0:27:05.879 This is what I like as a black man. Are 0:27:05.880 --> 0:27:07.880 you always doing too much with black people? Leave them alone. 0:27:07.920 --> 0:27:09.480 I want to go back to lynching, like, I get it. 0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:11.400 Will relax, man, Shut the f up. 0:27:11.600 --> 0:27:15.160 Okay, damn, you got me. Okay, you got me. Because 0:27:15.160 --> 0:27:18.640 I'm a racist person, now. 0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:19.720 You know, why he lost Detroit. 0:27:20.880 --> 0:27:22.520 There is a real story here. 0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:26.760 Talking to edmarscyat hotair dot com, as we talk about 0:27:26.760 --> 0:27:30.199 whether or not this works in certain blue bubbles, we 0:27:30.240 --> 0:27:33.640 already have LSI ed having a problem with the Stephens voters, 0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:36.280 because the Stephens voter can either hold their nose and 0:27:36.320 --> 0:27:38.760 vote for him, hold their nose and vote for Mike Rogers, 0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:40.800 or hold their nose at home and not go out 0:27:40.800 --> 0:27:41.320 and vote. 0:27:42.240 --> 0:27:42.760 But when you. 0:27:42.760 --> 0:27:46.959 Talk about people outside of these blue bubbles, you're talking 0:27:47.000 --> 0:27:51.080 about black voters, and black voters, I agree, are not 0:27:51.200 --> 0:27:57.280 a monolithic block, but they absolutely understand that their wants, desires, thoughts, 0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:01.520 their importance has been pushed aside because the Democratic Party 0:28:01.560 --> 0:28:04.640 now the Socialist Party has said communists and Muslims are 0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:07.840 the only things that matter in the voting base. We're 0:28:07.880 --> 0:28:11.600 going to even hide things on our campaign websites so 0:28:11.640 --> 0:28:15.240 it doesn't upset them like our thoughts on LGBTQ, et cetera. 0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:19.040 There is a large scale problem, and I'm asking you 0:28:19.119 --> 0:28:21.359 to kind of break it down a little bit more 0:28:22.320 --> 0:28:27.359 about how this problem is going to affect coming into November. 0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:31.720 So let me explain this to you in a structural way. 0:28:31.840 --> 0:28:35.159 The Democrat Party has long butught into the idea of 0:28:35.160 --> 0:28:40.680 intersectionality as a way of redistributing the political goods between 0:28:40.720 --> 0:28:47.040 the different grievance groups, if you will, in a woke structure, right, 0:28:47.360 --> 0:28:51.400 because Democrats are all about identity, right, So there's the 0:28:51.440 --> 0:28:55.560 black identity, there's female identity, there's you know, Jewish identity, 0:28:55.600 --> 0:28:59.000 there's you know, et cetera. And there's an intersectionality structure 0:28:59.040 --> 0:29:02.560 that goes with this. And this is important in Texas. 0:29:02.640 --> 0:29:04.000 Can I interrupt you really quick? 0:29:04.160 --> 0:29:06.000 Yeah, the Democrats have given up on the idea of 0:29:06.080 --> 0:29:08.840 Jewish identity. They want no Jewish identity whatsoever. 0:29:09.000 --> 0:29:10.520 Well, no, I mean, but what I was going to 0:29:10.560 --> 0:29:13.440 say is they've ranked Jewish identity at the very bottom 0:29:13.480 --> 0:29:18.440 of this intersectionality structure, right, and for a very long time, 0:29:19.640 --> 0:29:23.080 being black was at the top of this intersectionality structure. 0:29:23.080 --> 0:29:25.720 The whole thing was called was based on critical. 0:29:25.480 --> 0:29:29.360 Race theory, which was, you know that America is very racist, 0:29:29.400 --> 0:29:33.920 and so therefore you you know, and your ethnicity is 0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:37.960 completely determinist in terms of what your outcomes aren't access 0:29:38.000 --> 0:29:41.080 to social goods, and so therefore it must be redistributed 0:29:41.120 --> 0:29:45.080 based on where you rank each group, So you had 0:29:45.080 --> 0:29:47.320 blacks above Hispanics, for instance, which is one of the 0:29:47.360 --> 0:29:51.680 reasons why Hispanics started to leave the Democrat Party. Now 0:29:51.760 --> 0:29:56.920 you've got Democrats saying no, Socialists and Muslims are now 0:29:57.040 --> 0:30:00.360 at the top of this intersectionality structure and Blacks getting 0:30:00.360 --> 0:30:05.280 pushed down the structure. And in Texas, that's part of 0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:11.040 what happened. What's happening because Jasmine Crockett was both black 0:30:11.080 --> 0:30:15.000 and female, which in intersectionality terms should have made her 0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:18.680 top ranked in that primary, and James Tallerico, as a 0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:22.200 white male, shouldn't have even run against her. And this 0:30:22.280 --> 0:30:24.520 is the reason why Jane the Jasmine Crockett has been 0:30:24.600 --> 0:30:30.840 saying ever since that the Democrats primary was racist because 0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:36.160 it violated this intersectionality structure that black voters thought was 0:30:36.200 --> 0:30:39.400 in place to advance their interests. And what you're saying 0:30:39.880 --> 0:30:43.640 is part of this, which is that the intersectionality structure 0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:47.160 has been completely rewritten now by the DSA and people 0:30:47.200 --> 0:30:51.560 like Hassan Piker and Islamists to say no, right now, 0:30:51.920 --> 0:30:57.360 Palestine and communism and socialism are now the top part 0:30:57.680 --> 0:31:01.360 of the highest priority in this intersectionality structure, and blacks 0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.959 just need to shut up and get in line, and 0:31:04.240 --> 0:31:07.120 that is not That didn't go over will in the 0:31:07.160 --> 0:31:08.120 Michigan primary. 0:31:08.200 --> 0:31:09.920 It's not going to go over well in Texas either. 0:31:10.480 --> 0:31:12.920 Talking to Edmarssey of hotair dot com, listen, I don't 0:31:12.920 --> 0:31:13.600 know your schedule. 0:31:13.600 --> 0:31:15.240 Can you hang out for a few more minutes. 0:31:15.760 --> 0:31:18.160 Let me take a break because we should come back 0:31:18.160 --> 0:31:22.000 to where this actually goes to, which is how do 0:31:22.080 --> 0:31:23.640 Republicans take advantage of this? 0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:26.400 Not how do they take advantage of black voters. 0:31:26.480 --> 0:31:29.440 I think a tremendous number of black voters should be Republicans. 0:31:29.480 --> 0:31:33.240 Anyway they can make great changes in great strides. Republicans 0:31:33.280 --> 0:31:37.400 aren't bright, and they don't know how to act and interact. 0:31:37.440 --> 0:31:39.040 They don't know how to speak, and. 0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:40.800 You can't think of a group as a monolithic block, 0:31:40.840 --> 0:31:43.840 but you can recognize what you're discussing. How do they 0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:49.160 go about getting these voters in this mid term? Stay 0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:53.320 right there, Ed Morrissey, hotair dot Com, Stay right here, guys. 0:31:53.600 --> 0:31:55.240 This is Tony Katz today. 0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:58.840 Continue the conversation with Ed Morrissey regarding how Republicans can 0:31:58.880 --> 0:32:02.800 actually get black vote because part of the problem with 0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:06.320 Republicans is that they are not bright and they are 0:32:06.400 --> 0:32:10.120 afraid and they don't know how to talk, and those 0:32:10.160 --> 0:32:13.720 are some of their finest qualities. Tony Katz, Tony Kats today, 0:32:13.800 --> 0:32:16.880 good to be with you atmarcihotair dot com, joins me. 0:32:17.800 --> 0:32:20.240 I appreciate you sticking around for another few minutes. 0:32:20.760 --> 0:32:23.440 If we are to agree, as I've discussed it and 0:32:23.520 --> 0:32:27.200 now you're discussing it, that the left has abandoned the 0:32:27.240 --> 0:32:32.240 black voter as a necessary talking point, that what matters 0:32:32.360 --> 0:32:38.640 is hatred of Israel, pretending Palestine's a real place. These 0:32:38.720 --> 0:32:44.719 kinds of attacks the communist desire because capitalism is evil. 0:32:45.920 --> 0:32:50.880 Black voters clearly said in the Michigan election for the 0:32:50.920 --> 0:32:55.840 Democratic primary, No, So what is the advice to Republicans? 0:32:55.880 --> 0:33:01.440 Starting with Mike Rogers in Michigan, Republicans written large, how 0:33:01.480 --> 0:33:04.400 do they go about talking to voters Democrat voters who 0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:07.640 are black and saying, Hey, I may not be perfect, 0:33:07.640 --> 0:33:10.320 but my god, I think that you matter as an American. 0:33:11.040 --> 0:33:13.120 Well, the first thing would be to actually talk to them. 0:33:13.400 --> 0:33:15.280 I wrote about this ten years ago in my book 0:33:15.320 --> 0:33:18.280 Going Round. They don't show up, read they don't show up. 0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:21.160 They don't go to the neighborhoods. You know, I talked 0:33:21.160 --> 0:33:24.120 about this in the book extensively. I sat down with 0:33:24.440 --> 0:33:29.840 black conservatives in these different swing counties talking about what 0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:32.680 their experience was dealing with Republicans, and they said the 0:33:32.720 --> 0:33:35.200 same thing over and over again. Republicans will open up 0:33:35.200 --> 0:33:37.880 an office six weeks before an election and pack it 0:33:37.960 --> 0:33:41.400 up about four weeks afterwards. They don't stay in the communities. 0:33:41.720 --> 0:33:45.440 They don't keep going back and talking to people. They 0:33:45.440 --> 0:33:48.560 don't ask them what their issues are. They'd given the 0:33:48.680 --> 0:33:53.120 thirty thousand foot talking points. And the people that I 0:33:53.160 --> 0:33:56.760 talked to who were successful in making inroads in these 0:33:56.760 --> 0:34:00.240 communities were the people who actually sat down and listen 0:34:00.400 --> 0:34:03.480 first about what the actual issues were, what their concerns were, 0:34:03.960 --> 0:34:07.800 and trying to address them while not leaving their own 0:34:08.480 --> 0:34:09.280 values behind. 0:34:09.719 --> 0:34:13.680 And you have to start with respect. It starts with respect. 0:34:13.760 --> 0:34:17.320 So all you're doing is running advertising and not sitting 0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:20.480 down with people. You're not showing them enough respect for 0:34:20.560 --> 0:34:23.680 them to listen to you. And so your question is 0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:27.040 a great question. I've been talking about this for ten years, 0:34:27.080 --> 0:34:31.279 and Republicans have made some changes to try to do that. 0:34:31.360 --> 0:34:35.279 There's been some better GOTV efforts, for instance, and they 0:34:35.280 --> 0:34:37.520 have people who actually stick around in the communities a 0:34:37.560 --> 0:34:40.160 little longer, but for the most part, they still haven't 0:34:40.239 --> 0:34:43.600 learned to go and talk to these voters and show 0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:47.000 them respect. If they just showed up, you might be 0:34:47.040 --> 0:34:50.719 able to peel another five percent six percent just from 0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:53.200 the fact that you showed up and talked to them 0:34:52.680 --> 0:34:55.000 and made them feel like they mattered. 0:34:55.280 --> 0:34:58.600 And I will say this, I've discussed this on my 0:34:58.640 --> 0:34:59.480 morning show for years. 0:34:59.480 --> 0:35:01.600 I don't know if I've brought it here. Uh. 0:35:01.920 --> 0:35:04.239 If somebody invites me to speak at a black church, 0:35:04.400 --> 0:35:07.600 I'm going. I am there. You want me and Ed 0:35:07.680 --> 0:35:09.919 to come, I will pay for Ed's ticket. We will 0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:12.920 come and talk about these things and where we think 0:35:12.960 --> 0:35:16.280 conservatism is and why we think it matters, and and 0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:19.080 and and try and win hearts and minds to conversation. 0:35:19.680 --> 0:35:23.000 Invite I can't just show up, that's weird. Invite. 0:35:23.440 --> 0:35:26.200 I will bring Ed and I will wear a better 0:35:26.239 --> 0:35:27.399 shirt than he's wearing right now. 0:35:27.680 --> 0:35:29.160 And and you across. 0:35:28.880 --> 0:35:32.120 So all I A I p oh, yes, yes, yes, 0:35:32.320 --> 0:35:38.799 my shirt's fine. But this is it sounds so it 0:35:38.920 --> 0:35:41.160 sounds so basic. You got to actually talk to people. 0:35:41.800 --> 0:35:43.480 That is a huge part of it. Ed Morrissey, stay 0:35:43.560 --> 0:35:44.520 right there, hot air. 0:35:44.800 --> 0:35:46.520 Dot com and the book going Read. 0:35:46.680 --> 0:35:48.680 You can find that at Amazon dot com wherever fine 0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:50.600 books are sold, and appreciate it. 0:35:50.640 --> 0:35:52.080 Stay right there. More is coming up. 0:35:52.440 --> 0:36:01.760 This is Tony Katz today. 0:36:04.560 --> 0:36:10.160 Lie from Vall Heartbyer and the Crossroads of America. It's 0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:16.759 Tony Katz today. 0:36:17.160 --> 0:36:20.759 There's something about the political right in Mexican food that 0:36:20.920 --> 0:36:26.680 really my people, my people conservatives, well maybe it's republican 0:36:26.760 --> 0:36:27.560 Zamba conservative. 0:36:28.040 --> 0:36:29.359 They are not a function. 0:36:31.000 --> 0:36:35.480 Because it was about Trump and well this was the 0:36:35.560 --> 0:36:39.880 left naming it taco. Trump always chickens out, which is 0:36:40.440 --> 0:36:46.640 not true at all or in any way. So there 0:36:46.680 --> 0:36:49.920 was the taco thing, and now it's about the burrito. 0:36:52.320 --> 0:36:59.040 And I cannot describe to you how wrong everyone is. 0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:02.000 I should say many people are on the political right 0:37:02.040 --> 0:37:02.880 about this story. 0:37:03.800 --> 0:37:05.080 You're missing the point. 0:37:06.280 --> 0:37:11.200 You sound ridiculous, out of touch, lost, disconnected. 0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:13.960 If you want to lose elections. 0:37:13.440 --> 0:37:16.000 You keep talking the way you talk, or you can 0:37:16.040 --> 0:37:19.960 listen to me Tony Katz. Tony Katz Today, an absolute 0:37:20.000 --> 0:37:22.360 pleasure to be with you live streaming on YouTube and rumble. 0:37:22.440 --> 0:37:24.839 Just look for Tony Katz on Twitter also known as 0:37:24.840 --> 0:37:29.920 ex Tony Katz and Facebook Tony Katz Radio. It starts 0:37:30.000 --> 0:37:35.200 with a post from Matt Wallsh who I've disagreed with 0:37:35.239 --> 0:37:39.000 on things over there at Daily Wire, and he wrote 0:37:39.080 --> 0:37:41.080 that grocery prices are insane. 0:37:41.680 --> 0:37:42.720 They're still rising. 0:37:43.080 --> 0:37:45.440 Addressing this problem should be the number one priority of 0:37:45.440 --> 0:37:48.480 every elected leader, and the stupid foreign wars and focus 0:37:48.520 --> 0:37:51.200 on this issue. It's one of the main reasons socialists 0:37:51.239 --> 0:37:54.400 are gaining power. Well, he's wrong. 0:37:54.440 --> 0:37:55.320 One of the main. 0:37:55.200 --> 0:37:57.759 Reasons socialists are gaining power is because we gave up 0:37:57.800 --> 0:38:01.960 control and observation of education for forty years. 0:38:02.760 --> 0:38:05.120 Fifty years. I mean, let's speak clear about it. 0:38:05.120 --> 0:38:11.840 It's origins, Matt foreign wars and saying and stupid foreign 0:38:11.840 --> 0:38:17.080 wars is a talking point. Stopping the Iranian regime is smart, 0:38:18.120 --> 0:38:22.520 is conservative, is strong, is pro America, and is America first. 0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:24.759 No one who. 0:38:24.680 --> 0:38:29.040 Would allow RAND to remain as they were before was 0:38:29.160 --> 0:38:33.480 actually in any way ever America first. That includes Tucker 0:38:33.880 --> 0:38:38.320 Tucker Carlson, that includes Marjorie Taylor Green, that includes Thomas Massey. 0:38:38.600 --> 0:38:42.000 There is nothing that is America first about leaving a 0:38:42.080 --> 0:38:45.040 terrorist regime to do harm to the United States and 0:38:45.320 --> 0:38:51.040 United States interest just not real, but absolutely grocery prices 0:38:51.080 --> 0:38:53.960 are too high. Yes, egg prices are down and other 0:38:54.040 --> 0:38:56.719 things have come down. Beef prices are down, but they're 0:38:56.760 --> 0:39:01.160 still too high. And what we're really talking about when 0:39:01.200 --> 0:39:05.160 people utilize the term affordability is the idea that the 0:39:05.280 --> 0:39:08.320 basic has become costly. 0:39:10.000 --> 0:39:13.480 We should note these things. We've discussed it here. 0:39:13.600 --> 0:39:16.680 In the terms of going out to eat, there was 0:39:16.719 --> 0:39:19.319 a moment that that fast food quick serve and the 0:39:19.360 --> 0:39:23.160 prices have gotten so high that people had moved to 0:39:23.440 --> 0:39:27.920 places like Texas Roadhouse. If I'm going to go to 0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:32.439 a Chipotle, never mind the salmonila from the Halopanos, which 0:39:32.440 --> 0:39:34.560 they pulled the Holopanos, and I hope they come out 0:39:34.560 --> 0:39:36.279 of this, you know, I don't want them to get 0:39:36.320 --> 0:39:40.880 destroyed by this issue. But if I get the family 0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:44.080 of four, everyone gets a burrito, speaking of burritos, and 0:39:44.120 --> 0:39:45.799 they get a drink, and we get some extra trips. 0:39:45.840 --> 0:39:48.480 Oh yeah, oh yeah, the little one wants to guacamole. 0:39:49.680 --> 0:39:55.640 That bill could be sixty dollars, right, well, one, I'm 0:39:55.680 --> 0:39:59.320 at sixty dollars. Can I be at seventy three dollars 0:39:59.360 --> 0:40:03.600 and get my an eight ounce steak, sit in a booth, 0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:07.640 get my refills where someone brings them to me. 0:40:07.719 --> 0:40:10.680 Oh, I get the rolls, and I. 0:40:10.680 --> 0:40:18.640 Get to feel like a person. When a family cannot 0:40:18.640 --> 0:40:22.520 go out to eat to the most basic of places, 0:40:24.040 --> 0:40:27.000 the Texas Roadhouse, the Applebee's, I'm not mocking these places. 0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:31.880 I'm discussing them as they are. People start asking themselves 0:40:31.920 --> 0:40:35.799 what are we working so hard for? The going out 0:40:35.840 --> 0:40:39.000 to eat, The going to one of these places and 0:40:39.040 --> 0:40:45.120 being served is the way to feel normal. It's the 0:40:45.160 --> 0:40:47.680 way to feel like my work is worth it. I 0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:52.520 can afford to provide for my family this little luxury. 0:40:52.560 --> 0:40:56.160 In this way, the missus didn't have to cook. 0:40:56.200 --> 0:40:59.959 Being stereotypical, everybody's out, it's a little relive. 0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:01.160 Will actually look. 0:41:01.040 --> 0:41:03.000 At each other? No, no, no, everybody off the phones. We're 0:41:03.040 --> 0:41:05.000 hanging out. Come on, you're in a restaurant. Don't be 0:41:05.040 --> 0:41:07.680 on your phone. Don't be see those people ridiculous. Don't 0:41:07.719 --> 0:41:16.560 do that. And it connects. That is good, and that 0:41:16.760 --> 0:41:20.040 is where a sense of normalcy comes from. When people 0:41:20.080 --> 0:41:21.879 can't afford to do that, or feel that they can't 0:41:21.920 --> 0:41:24.440 afford to do that, they ask themselves. 0:41:24.000 --> 0:41:25.399 What am I working this hard for? 0:41:27.160 --> 0:41:27.239 Is? 0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:27.960 What is this? 0:41:29.719 --> 0:41:35.160 You cannot cannot deny that you should not deny that, 0:41:35.800 --> 0:41:39.440 do not deny where people are, where they exist, and 0:41:39.480 --> 0:41:42.520 what it is that moves them. I would argue that 0:41:42.560 --> 0:41:46.720 there is a great amount of America that isn't looking 0:41:46.920 --> 0:41:53.520 for millions and billions. They're looking for happy, They're looking 0:41:53.640 --> 0:41:54.440 for you know what. 0:41:54.560 --> 0:41:58.360 This is good and I have zero issue with that. 0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:00.879 To respond to. 0:42:00.880 --> 0:42:06.160 Matt Walsh, comes Andrew Covid. Andrew was, of course the 0:42:06.200 --> 0:42:09.320 producer and the right hand of the late Charlie Kirk, 0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:11.440 and I believe he still. 0:42:11.239 --> 0:42:12.040 Runs that show. 0:42:12.080 --> 0:42:13.960 He's still doing that show. It's on the same time. 0:42:14.040 --> 0:42:17.280 I am so I never listened. I've never met Andrew. 0:42:18.719 --> 0:42:25.239 And Andrew posted. And what Andrew posted was this right here. 0:42:26.960 --> 0:42:30.919 He posted that one of our TPUSA college students, meaning 0:42:30.920 --> 0:42:34.200 Turning Point USA, gave me his. 0:42:34.200 --> 0:42:35.320 Take on affordability. 0:42:35.400 --> 0:42:41.600 Quote a burrito shouldn't cost twenty dollars, he continues, Yeah, 0:42:41.680 --> 0:42:45.440 a lot of this is a hangover from COVID and 0:42:45.440 --> 0:42:49.240 Biden error inflation, but the lived experience is the same. 0:42:49.719 --> 0:42:55.720 It just feels like basic things cost too much. That is. 0:42:57.440 --> 0:43:08.280 A very normal thing to say. That's very very true. 0:43:08.480 --> 0:43:11.320 The idea that a burrito may not cost twenty dollars 0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:16.319 is not the story. It's that the experience, the basics 0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:17.879 are just too high. 0:43:17.960 --> 0:43:19.839 It is it's the rent is too m high. 0:43:19.840 --> 0:43:29.520 It's that feeling. The responses to this have been ridiculous. 0:43:30.080 --> 0:43:36.120 One of those ridiculous responses was from Mark Theiesson, who 0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:38.880 does a lot of writing Fox Washington Post. 0:43:39.239 --> 0:43:40.520 I follow some of his work. 0:43:41.080 --> 0:43:46.000 I like the guy, but he made a mistake and 0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:51.440 he wrote crimea River. The burritos in the college cafeteria 0:43:51.520 --> 0:43:58.759 are included in your meal plan. Oh, we really don't 0:43:58.760 --> 0:44:03.360 want to win elections doing The political right has no 0:44:03.520 --> 0:44:13.759 interest reading winning elections. They don't everything that said. Oh 0:44:13.840 --> 0:44:16.680 you're just complaining. Oh you're just ridiculous as opposed to 0:44:16.840 --> 0:44:20.960 listening to what's being said. Not only is this said 0:44:21.080 --> 0:44:29.680 by Mark Theison, but Ben Shapiro jumps in and says 0:44:29.719 --> 0:44:32.400 that if young people were paying twenty dollars for a burrito, 0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:39.359 they are quote doing life wrong. I said earlier this 0:44:39.440 --> 0:44:41.880 week that when it came to Sophie Cunningham, Matt Walsh 0:44:42.000 --> 0:44:44.719 had a swing and a miss. This is a swing 0:44:44.760 --> 0:44:48.239 and a miss from Ben Shapiro. Jide, Now, all I 0:44:48.320 --> 0:44:51.080 have is that quote producer Land and if you want 0:44:51.120 --> 0:44:53.839 to go find the post from Ben you can. 0:44:54.920 --> 0:44:56.760 That is a mistake. 0:44:59.040 --> 0:45:03.800 The argument he is not that a turning point USA 0:45:04.080 --> 0:45:08.480 member should be should not be buying twenty dollars burritos. 0:45:10.120 --> 0:45:16.080 The argument here is the idea of cost, the idea 0:45:16.200 --> 0:45:21.040 that the basics are high, and that is not solely 0:45:21.080 --> 0:45:25.160 represented by the college student. It's represented by anybody who 0:45:25.200 --> 0:45:29.200 buys groceries. It's represented by anybody who pays car insurance 0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:32.600 or any other shirts, homeowners inshurts. Can we discuss the 0:45:32.719 --> 0:45:38.439 rising costs here buying an airline ticket and you get 0:45:38.520 --> 0:45:41.279 less service, less care, and what do you do? 0:45:41.360 --> 0:45:45.120 You pay more and more and more. I was discussing yesterday. 0:45:44.760 --> 0:45:47.400 That there is this budget airline out of Australia that 0:45:47.520 --> 0:45:50.080 now wants to charge you if you put your carry 0:45:50.120 --> 0:45:51.560 on in the overhead bin. 0:45:54.320 --> 0:45:57.319 If that holds, what happens. 0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:04.120 When they bring that to United and Delta and Jet Blue, etc. 0:46:08.880 --> 0:46:14.080 Now some people responded to these things with just ridiculousness. 0:46:15.560 --> 0:46:20.280 One of those people was the vice president. The vice 0:46:20.360 --> 0:46:25.760 president stated, I'm surprised talking about Mark Theesen, I'm surprised 0:46:25.760 --> 0:46:28.080 to hear Mark say this. If you've ever met him 0:46:28.080 --> 0:46:30.520 in person, it's quite obvious. The man who has never 0:46:30.520 --> 0:46:36.200 missed a burrito, that's just dumb. 0:46:37.480 --> 0:46:38.320 What are you doing? 0:46:39.560 --> 0:46:44.600 Congratulations, you got in the dig terrific. You're now an 0:46:44.680 --> 0:46:47.480 influencer on social media. You might as well just be 0:46:47.520 --> 0:46:52.520 a podcaster, not the vice president of the United States, unless, 0:46:52.520 --> 0:46:56.239 of course, this is all part of your economic nationalism. 0:46:55.640 --> 0:46:56.879 That you're just thrilled by. 0:46:57.480 --> 0:47:01.600 Can we discuss winning elections for half a second? Could 0:47:01.600 --> 0:47:07.759 you listen to what is being said. There is a 0:47:07.880 --> 0:47:14.160 cost issue, and it's real, and it has a great 0:47:14.640 --> 0:47:20.080 number of places that we can look to. And yes, absolutely, 0:47:20.160 --> 0:47:22.480 Biden level inflation is a part of it. 0:47:22.520 --> 0:47:25.360 Inflation is not down to where we need it to be. 0:47:26.600 --> 0:47:27.120 It isn't. 0:47:29.120 --> 0:47:33.680 We had a whole conversation about two Fed governors talking 0:47:33.719 --> 0:47:37.080 about the need for rate hikes, increased interest rates to 0:47:37.160 --> 0:47:40.160 keep dollars from getting into the system. Inflation is too 0:47:40.200 --> 0:47:43.520 much cash, not enough stuff, and therefore you increase the 0:47:43.560 --> 0:47:46.560 interest rates. Let's cash into the system and inflation comes down. 0:47:47.440 --> 0:47:51.319 I saw somebody in the chat talk about deflation. Deflation 0:47:51.840 --> 0:47:56.360 can be a problem if it comes too quickly. Stagflation 0:47:57.000 --> 0:48:02.680 is super ugly Japan over the last thirty plus years, 0:48:02.920 --> 0:48:06.520 and ask China, as they are now slowly realizing they 0:48:06.560 --> 0:48:13.680 are in the grips of it. It is obvious to 0:48:13.960 --> 0:48:18.440 all of us that the daily costs have gotten into 0:48:18.480 --> 0:48:24.840 an obscenity. It simply is a problem. Why not address 0:48:24.960 --> 0:48:27.600 that problem from all of the angles of which it 0:48:27.640 --> 0:48:29.920 is a problem. Inflation is a part of the problem. 0:48:30.480 --> 0:48:34.880 If President Trump would remove a bunch of tariffs, you 0:48:34.960 --> 0:48:39.520 would see things get easier. My take if we took 0:48:39.560 --> 0:48:43.640 a look at the regulatory environment and talked about how 0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:49.160 less government is a clear place that we can engage 0:48:50.239 --> 0:48:54.480 to reduce cash in the system, to where President Trump 0:48:54.560 --> 0:48:57.440 is having great effect and result. We take a look 0:48:57.440 --> 0:48:59.120 at the jobs numbers that just came out, and I'll 0:48:59.120 --> 0:49:01.839 talk to doctor Matta Will economists at the University of 0:49:01.880 --> 0:49:04.000 Indianapolis coming up in a little bit. 0:49:05.400 --> 0:49:08.360 The jobs numbers. My gosh, you lost twenty three thousand jobs. 0:49:08.400 --> 0:49:09.200 This is terrible. 0:49:10.120 --> 0:49:14.160 But we actually had sectors that we gained private jobs. 0:49:14.520 --> 0:49:17.799 The private sector gained thirty thousand jobs in the month 0:49:17.800 --> 0:49:26.800 of July. Government lost fifty three thousand jobs. Losing government 0:49:26.960 --> 0:49:31.360 jobs is good. We don't need this big bloated government. 0:49:32.920 --> 0:49:36.040 But you lost more government than you picked up private sector, 0:49:36.440 --> 0:49:40.839 Thus the negative number. So the negative number top line 0:49:40.880 --> 0:49:43.279 tells a story of things still having an issue, but 0:49:43.360 --> 0:49:46.200 there are things within it that explain why it's happening. 0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:53.680 Lowering government smart, getting what Kevin Walsh, the FED chair, 0:49:53.760 --> 0:49:56.840 is trying to do, getting things off the balance sheet, smart, 0:49:57.480 --> 0:49:59.400 changing the regulatory environments. 0:49:59.560 --> 0:50:01.120 When it comes to the very idea of. 0:50:01.200 --> 0:50:04.680 Costs smart, how about we discussed the idea of a 0:50:04.680 --> 0:50:08.640 twenty dollars burrito and those states that want to push 0:50:08.719 --> 0:50:14.040 twenty dollars an hour minimum wages, of course the cost 0:50:14.080 --> 0:50:17.120 of a burrito or anything else is going to go up. 0:50:17.360 --> 0:50:19.480 Do we not understand how this works? 0:50:22.680 --> 0:50:28.560 We have a thousand ways to address what's happening, and 0:50:28.760 --> 0:50:31.799 go and speak to gen Z and speak to all 0:50:31.800 --> 0:50:35.480 of America and say there is a path out of this, 0:50:35.840 --> 0:50:39.000 and it involves fiscal policy. We're the ones with the 0:50:39.000 --> 0:50:45.520 fiscal policy. Vote for us. Instead, I've got Marked Feesson 0:50:45.840 --> 0:50:52.040 and Ben Shapiro dismissing it with non even with non 0:50:52.200 --> 0:50:59.439 intellectual commentary. This is baseline garbage that they just put out, 0:50:59.640 --> 0:51:07.759 and I've got the Vice president making fact jokes. This 0:51:07.800 --> 0:51:11.600 is why people drink bourbon, and this is why people 0:51:11.640 --> 0:51:14.280 hate politics and Republicans. 0:51:15.160 --> 0:51:18.800 This is why people hate you. What are you doing? 0:51:19.840 --> 0:51:26.240 You have an opportunity here, why not take the damn opportunity. 0:51:27.200 --> 0:51:29.000 You can argue, well, you see, this is just a 0:51:29.040 --> 0:51:32.600 populist message and what the populast would do. America has 0:51:32.640 --> 0:51:34.680 to protect itself more and they have to implement this, 0:51:34.760 --> 0:51:35.880 and you can't be allowed. 0:51:35.640 --> 0:51:38.280 To charge that. No, that stuff is wrong. 0:51:38.480 --> 0:51:40.719 And Trump has some of those inclinations because he's not 0:51:40.760 --> 0:51:41.360 a conservative. 0:51:41.400 --> 0:51:43.440 I understand this, and that's not correct. 0:51:44.080 --> 0:51:48.520 It has to be a policy prescription that takes government 0:51:48.680 --> 0:51:51.920 out of these things, that puts an end to this 0:51:52.080 --> 0:51:54.640 maddening idea that it is on the back of the 0:51:54.760 --> 0:51:59.720 employer to pay what somebody who has never employed anybody 0:51:59.760 --> 0:52:03.520 is to de cited as a living wage. We have 0:52:03.600 --> 0:52:07.600 to address these things honestly and clearly and show gen 0:52:07.719 --> 0:52:11.400 Z that they could be active participants in making things better. 0:52:12.480 --> 0:52:17.240 All they have to do is act, and instead listening 0:52:17.280 --> 0:52:20.799 to a real concern from Andrew Covid, it gets dismissed. 0:52:22.760 --> 0:52:25.719 It is the dumbest thing I have seen the political 0:52:25.800 --> 0:52:29.719 right do in a good long time, and that includes 0:52:29.800 --> 0:52:33.200 nominating Carrie Lake in Arizona. When you knew she was 0:52:33.239 --> 0:52:41.920 gonna lose tired, like you, exhausted of people just not 0:52:42.760 --> 0:52:48.840 being normal when that's all it takes. I'm Tony Katz. 0:52:49.200 --> 0:52:50.480 This is Tony Katz today. 0:52:50.640 --> 0:52:52.959 So Presier Landon, as we were talking about the cost 0:52:53.000 --> 0:52:58.480 of burritos, than this story about someone saying that. 0:53:00.280 --> 0:53:03.680 If they can't afford the basic things, It was Andrew 0:53:03.719 --> 0:53:06.880 Covitt saying that people at Turning Point USA are like, 0:53:06.920 --> 0:53:11.080 you know, a burrito shouldn't cost twenty dollars. The point 0:53:11.200 --> 0:53:16.840 being that the costs of the everyday things are too high. 0:53:17.040 --> 0:53:20.280 And I'm not suggesting buying twenty dollars burritos Tony Katz, 0:53:20.320 --> 0:53:23.680 Tony kats today, but to mock these people are supposed 0:53:23.719 --> 0:53:26.160 to recognize that there are increased costs and there are 0:53:26.160 --> 0:53:28.400 things we can do about this, and these are policy prescriptions, 0:53:28.400 --> 0:53:30.480 and why not go sell those and show people how 0:53:30.520 --> 0:53:33.600 they can be active participants in making things better in 0:53:33.600 --> 0:53:37.640 their own life. Instead they're getting mocked. And Ben Shapiro 0:53:37.680 --> 0:53:39.239 didn't he was wrong, Mark Theson did it. 0:53:39.280 --> 0:53:40.360 He's wrong. They're just wrong. 0:53:41.400 --> 0:53:45.080 And producer Landen said, does this apply to door dash? 0:53:46.719 --> 0:53:49.120 Allow me, No, it does not. 0:53:51.400 --> 0:54:00.440 Door dash is about you being outrageously lazy about the 0:54:00.440 --> 0:54:03.120 cost of the item. You are now paying for an 0:54:03.200 --> 0:54:07.440 added luxury. And there are people who DoorDash four times. 0:54:07.160 --> 0:54:09.640 A week producer land and true or false, that's true. 0:54:11.000 --> 0:54:12.400 Those people are insane. 0:54:13.560 --> 0:54:17.319 Those people need to have Dave Ramsey come hit them 0:54:17.360 --> 0:54:22.000 about the head with a stick. You you can't afford 0:54:22.080 --> 0:54:23.240 door dash? 0:54:23.640 --> 0:54:24.880 What are you out of your mind? 0:54:26.320 --> 0:54:30.920 That is about being foolhardy with your economics. That's a 0:54:31.040 --> 0:54:35.320 different conversation than the cost of simple basic things. 0:54:36.200 --> 0:54:37.200 That's the difference. 0:54:38.080 --> 0:54:40.719 If you are somebody just starting out in life, or 0:54:40.719 --> 0:54:43.120 you're a college student and you're door dashing four days 0:54:43.160 --> 0:54:45.400 a week, you are indeed doing it wrong. 0:54:46.640 --> 0:54:48.160 If you're talking about wanting to go. 0:54:48.200 --> 0:54:53.719 Out and a burrito is really expensive Chipotle, what have you? 0:54:54.400 --> 0:54:56.120 Yeah, that is an. 0:54:56.040 --> 0:54:59.040 Issue, and that issue comes from a lot of other places. 0:54:59.480 --> 0:55:02.160 You decide you need the luxury of someone driving it 0:55:02.200 --> 0:55:04.480 to you because you just won't get your ass off 0:55:04.520 --> 0:55:11.239 a couch. I don't feel anything for you. Now in 0:55:11.280 --> 0:55:15.120 all of this, we should be clear. If you're just 0:55:15.160 --> 0:55:18.560 starting out, pack your lunch at home. It's better economics. 0:55:20.360 --> 0:55:26.239 If you have a kitchen you need to cook, you 0:55:26.320 --> 0:55:30.840 need to handle your economic realities. Well, it doesn't change 0:55:30.840 --> 0:55:32.920 the point that's being made about. 0:55:32.640 --> 0:55:35.400 Our economics as a nation. This is Tony Kats Today. 0:55:36.080 --> 0:55:40.160 Three more things, Tony Kats, Tony Katz today. Guys, glad 0:55:40.320 --> 0:55:42.440 that you are here live streaming on YouTube and Rumble. 0:55:42.520 --> 0:55:47.120 Just look for Tony Katz. Come join the fun. Three 0:55:47.160 --> 0:55:49.840 more things. These are stories that should be front page news, 0:55:50.239 --> 0:55:51.640 but because. 0:55:52.800 --> 0:55:56.000 Of all the news on the front pages, and they 0:55:56.040 --> 0:55:57.240 get moved off the front pages. 0:55:57.320 --> 0:56:01.560 So I bring them to you, as we said, live 0:56:01.600 --> 0:56:05.480 streaming smoking a Crux marble head as we do the show. 0:56:06.120 --> 0:56:08.759 It's turned out to be a lovely cigar and can 0:56:08.800 --> 0:56:13.800 work as a daily smoke, A nice piece Crux Crux. 0:56:14.000 --> 0:56:16.400 They have a whole line of cigars. This is the 0:56:16.440 --> 0:56:19.800 marble head right here. Did I pay this ten eleven 0:56:19.840 --> 0:56:21.560 dollars a stick? Something like that? 0:56:21.960 --> 0:56:22.120 Oh? 0:56:22.200 --> 0:56:23.560 I get it, Tony. 0:56:23.600 --> 0:56:25.719 How can you talk about affordability when you're talking about 0:56:25.719 --> 0:56:29.800 spending eleven dollars on a cigar? Well, I can afford 0:56:29.840 --> 0:56:34.040 the eleven dollars cigar. I can afford the eleven dollars cigar, 0:56:34.200 --> 0:56:35.640 and I've set up my life to be able to 0:56:35.640 --> 0:56:37.200 do this every day. 0:56:37.840 --> 0:56:40.640 If you can't, and when I couldn't, I didn't. 0:56:42.280 --> 0:56:42.440 Right. 0:56:42.560 --> 0:56:47.080 This whole conversation about economics a never ever excludes the 0:56:47.120 --> 0:56:50.240 idea of being somebody who is aware of your economic 0:56:50.280 --> 0:56:53.360 situation and being focused on it. I was being asked 0:56:53.360 --> 0:56:57.120 in the chat room about a car issue I have, 0:56:58.280 --> 0:57:02.560 and it's a real differential went never I've never never 0:57:02.640 --> 0:57:05.359 had a rear differential go And so I was like, well, 0:57:05.360 --> 0:57:06.919 do you fix it? Does that mean you should sell 0:57:06.960 --> 0:57:07.200 the car? 0:57:07.520 --> 0:57:08.040 What do you do? 0:57:08.600 --> 0:57:11.080 And in speaking to some people who know better than I, 0:57:11.239 --> 0:57:14.239 the answer was, oh, gosh, no, no, no, no, everything else 0:57:14.280 --> 0:57:14.919 about the car works. 0:57:14.920 --> 0:57:19.200 You're not going to sell anything. Used cars are unbelievably high. 0:57:19.240 --> 0:57:20.520 Why are used cars high? 0:57:21.120 --> 0:57:28.680 Because new car prices are criminally insane, criminally insane. The 0:57:28.840 --> 0:57:32.800 average car payment in America is seven hundred and seventy 0:57:32.840 --> 0:57:36.120 five dollars for a new car, and there are definitely 0:57:36.200 --> 0:57:38.440 people who are well over one thousand dollars in new 0:57:38.440 --> 0:57:39.040 car payments. 0:57:39.800 --> 0:57:41.840 That's crazed. Now. 0:57:41.880 --> 0:57:44.760 My issue there is certainly, if you can afford it, 0:57:44.840 --> 0:57:47.640 you do what you will. If you're like, oh, I 0:57:47.640 --> 0:57:49.480 gotta have a new car, no, you don't have to 0:57:49.480 --> 0:57:52.640 have a new car, grow up and handle yourself. There's 0:57:52.680 --> 0:57:57.920 a difference between being smart about your economics and the 0:57:58.000 --> 0:57:59.439 economics of things. 0:58:01.120 --> 0:58:02.000 We have. 0:58:05.920 --> 0:58:08.480 When it comes to new cars, a problem by which 0:58:08.520 --> 0:58:11.720 we loaded up with crap. Oh this safety feature, that feature, 0:58:11.760 --> 0:58:14.880 the other feature. Nobody wants the features, nobody cares about 0:58:14.880 --> 0:58:19.880 the features, and they all increase the cost of the vehicle. 0:58:22.200 --> 0:58:25.280 We're forced into these things. Somebody in the chat room wrote, 0:58:25.320 --> 0:58:28.280 that's the capitalism you guys wanted, damn Strade, it's the 0:58:28.320 --> 0:58:31.920 capitalism I want. You think I want what the communists 0:58:31.960 --> 0:58:37.640 have to offer. No choices and breadlines, pooky. Nobody wants that. 0:58:38.680 --> 0:58:43.040 No one who's normal wants that. But the government interference 0:58:43.080 --> 0:58:45.640 that causes the price increases have to go. 0:58:46.040 --> 0:58:47.480 Watch the prices come down. 0:58:48.880 --> 0:58:51.479 You can actually draw a direct line, in my view, 0:58:51.800 --> 0:58:54.000 between this and things like rent control. 0:58:55.640 --> 0:58:59.120 Of course you have rent control. 0:58:59.160 --> 0:59:01.120 All we're going for rents too high, and we have 0:59:01.200 --> 0:59:04.760 to stop these high prices of rent. If you have 0:59:04.840 --> 0:59:08.440 rent control, you're stopping the landlord from being able to 0:59:08.520 --> 0:59:12.240 charge a market rate. But the landlord still has to 0:59:12.240 --> 0:59:14.560 deal with the market rate for all the repairs. Then 0:59:14.600 --> 0:59:17.360 the landlord can't afford to make the repairs, and so 0:59:17.400 --> 0:59:19.880 what does the state come and do they take the property? 0:59:19.920 --> 0:59:22.480 Because somebody has to manage this and you are being 0:59:22.520 --> 0:59:26.240 a slum lord. Rent control is the maneuver to the 0:59:26.280 --> 0:59:31.720 expropriation of property. Argentina had rent control for years. Javier 0:59:31.800 --> 0:59:36.440 Malay gets elected, the rent controls end prices dropped immediately, 0:59:36.800 --> 0:59:40.720 and then apartments became available because landlords started renting again. 0:59:41.600 --> 0:59:43.800 But what do the communists want? They want to do 0:59:43.880 --> 0:59:44.600 away with rent. 0:59:45.200 --> 0:59:51.440 They hold symposiums, they write books about abolishing rent. How 0:59:51.480 --> 0:59:53.560 does that work? Well, it works when you don't believe 0:59:53.560 --> 1:00:01.480 in private property. So yeah, capitalism good. Communism sucks. But 1:00:01.560 --> 1:00:05.200 when we talk about cars, we're talking about all the 1:00:05.240 --> 1:00:06.680 things that are forced into it. 1:00:06.560 --> 1:00:07.320 By a government. 1:00:08.080 --> 1:00:10.919 I didn't realize we would get on a whole thing 1:00:11.000 --> 1:00:14.440 here about the dollars. But I'm happy to do it 1:00:14.440 --> 1:00:18.240 this way, get rid of the things that are you know, 1:00:18.280 --> 1:00:22.640 I don't want. I don't want my car, Ford, GM Stilantis, whomever. 1:00:24.040 --> 1:00:26.440 Stop sending me a notification that I should look in 1:00:26.480 --> 1:00:31.040 the back seat to see if my kid is there first. 1:00:32.880 --> 1:00:35.680 What about the people who can't have kids? Thanks for 1:00:35.760 --> 1:00:38.480 reminding them every day that they're unable to have children. 1:00:38.640 --> 1:00:42.360 I think that's rude and disgusting. Secondly, I do not 1:00:42.480 --> 1:00:46.040 want to spend extra for the reminder. I can put 1:00:46.080 --> 1:00:50.440 a post it note right there on the dash, or 1:00:51.040 --> 1:00:53.240 I can remember that I have my kid in the car. 1:00:55.080 --> 1:00:59.640 Don't take away personal responsibility. Stop it with that stupid 1:00:59.680 --> 1:01:02.360 ding that happens when I don't put on my seat belt. 1:01:03.040 --> 1:01:05.480 I wear my seat belts. I think wearing a seat 1:01:05.520 --> 1:01:09.400 belt makes sense. But if someone doesn't want to wear 1:01:09.440 --> 1:01:11.200 seat belts, I don't want a law that says they 1:01:11.200 --> 1:01:14.200 have to wear a seat belt if they fly through 1:01:14.240 --> 1:01:17.040 the window in a car accident. They fly through the window, 1:01:18.360 --> 1:01:20.920 it's no skin off my nose. I mean it'll be 1:01:20.960 --> 1:01:23.640 skinned off their nose because they just flew through the window. 1:01:25.520 --> 1:01:27.320 But don't bother me about it, and I don't have 1:01:27.360 --> 1:01:28.040 to pay for it. 1:01:30.360 --> 1:01:33.760 So the new car prices are so dang high because 1:01:33.800 --> 1:01:35.080 of a lot of this nonsense. 1:01:35.080 --> 1:01:36.440 It's regulatory insanity. 1:01:37.000 --> 1:01:39.600 Therefore, the used car prices go up and there would 1:01:39.600 --> 1:01:42.760 be no real replacing of this car. So get it fixed. 1:01:43.640 --> 1:01:46.560 It's just a reird differential. I didn't know. 1:01:46.840 --> 1:01:48.960 I now know. It is a crappy thing to have 1:01:49.000 --> 1:01:49.520 to replace. 1:01:50.440 --> 1:01:52.960 It is a crappy thing to have to replace if 1:01:52.960 --> 1:01:56.600 it can't be fixed. And yes, the auto shut off 1:01:56.640 --> 1:01:59.440 is nonsense. But the EPA under lee'sz Elton has moved 1:01:59.560 --> 1:02:05.520 to remove the auto shut off and to that excellent work, 1:02:08.640 --> 1:02:13.200 absolutely terrific. I could not be more happy. But let 1:02:13.240 --> 1:02:16.320 me get to the three more things, and I will 1:02:16.360 --> 1:02:19.640 get to one more financial thing. This was Duke University, 1:02:20.360 --> 1:02:24.640 where the Justice Department says that Duke University's law school 1:02:24.640 --> 1:02:30.800 discriminates against white and Asian students. You can apply that anywhere, 1:02:32.040 --> 1:02:35.240 of course it does. I would say this about Duke, 1:02:35.440 --> 1:02:38.240 I would say this about universities, not even just law schools, 1:02:39.560 --> 1:02:41.080 medical schools, everything. 1:02:42.080 --> 1:02:42.960 Of course they do. 1:02:44.280 --> 1:02:48.640 The Department, meaning the Justice Department, says that they're utilizing 1:02:48.720 --> 1:02:52.920 racial references and admissions, violating civil rights laws. 1:02:53.680 --> 1:02:57.760 So that's number one. They give a preferential treatment. 1:02:59.040 --> 1:03:04.320 To a black and Hispanic applicants, right because they want 1:03:04.320 --> 1:03:05.840 to say, look how many of this group, but look 1:03:05.840 --> 1:03:06.720 how many of that group. 1:03:07.240 --> 1:03:09.000 This is what happened with Harvard. 1:03:09.640 --> 1:03:13.880 They absolutely were discriminating against Asian students. 1:03:13.920 --> 1:03:18.520 Why we've got enough of those? You've got enough of those? 1:03:20.960 --> 1:03:25.560 I mean, that's the that is an absolutely horrifying thing 1:03:25.760 --> 1:03:33.560 to be said. That is pure, raw, unadulterated bigotry, complete bigotry. 1:03:34.320 --> 1:03:35.920 So they said that the black. 1:03:35.760 --> 1:03:38.480 Livespanic students get a leg up in white and Asian applicants, 1:03:39.800 --> 1:03:43.520 and the media LSAT scores for white and Asian applicants 1:03:43.520 --> 1:03:46.320 who were rejected were higher than those of black students 1:03:46.320 --> 1:03:50.520 who were admitted. And this after the Supreme Court three 1:03:50.640 --> 1:03:54.439 years ago explicit said explicit racial preferences are. 1:03:54.360 --> 1:03:59.720 Illegal in college admissions. We've already seen that. 1:03:59.840 --> 1:04:06.680 So many of these universities have done workarounds to try 1:04:06.720 --> 1:04:13.040 and continue this road because they all believe in the bigotry. 1:04:13.800 --> 1:04:17.480 They are are well wrapped into the idea that no, 1:04:17.680 --> 1:04:20.280 this one deserves it and this one doesn't. They don't 1:04:20.360 --> 1:04:25.280 believe in the very concept of merit. Oh, if you 1:04:25.360 --> 1:04:30.120 don't think, I'm not worried about my medical future and 1:04:30.280 --> 1:04:33.440 doctors and nurses and whether or not we brought in 1:04:33.520 --> 1:04:35.240 the best of the brightest. Tony, you're saying a black 1:04:35.360 --> 1:04:37.360 Rispanic nurse can't be the best of the brightest. 1:04:37.400 --> 1:04:37.960 Of course not. 1:04:39.320 --> 1:04:42.360 But everything has to be on merit and not based 1:04:42.400 --> 1:04:44.560 on this group and that group and a great number 1:04:44.560 --> 1:04:46.480 here and a good number here, and does it balance out? 1:04:46.520 --> 1:04:48.600 And how does it all look? And the pie charts 1:04:48.600 --> 1:04:51.760 totally equal. That's not the way it works. That can't 1:04:51.760 --> 1:04:55.480 be the way it works. I don't want my doctor 1:04:55.640 --> 1:04:58.760 or my nurse getting into being a doctor or nurse 1:04:58.840 --> 1:05:00.920 because well, but we had to do that. 1:05:03.360 --> 1:05:05.760 I want the best of the best of the best 1:05:05.880 --> 1:05:09.800 of the best. That's what I want. 1:05:10.600 --> 1:05:13.120 And I can't imagine that there's somebody out there who 1:05:13.160 --> 1:05:18.000 wants anything else. Then there is President Trump denying a 1:05:18.120 --> 1:05:23.320 rift with Pete Hegseth regarding munitions. Right, this reporting that 1:05:23.440 --> 1:05:28.240 somehow we're low on weaponry, which is indeed a firing offense. 1:05:29.120 --> 1:05:32.920 I would take every general who was responsible over the 1:05:33.000 --> 1:05:35.120 last years and I would bust them down. 1:05:35.440 --> 1:05:37.840 I had said I would bust them down to corporal. 1:05:37.880 --> 1:05:39.880 And someone reminded me, you can only bust them down 1:05:39.880 --> 1:05:40.800 to second lieutenant. 1:05:40.840 --> 1:05:42.880 Don't tell me how to live. But I get your point. 1:05:43.800 --> 1:05:44.360 Get rid of. 1:05:44.320 --> 1:05:49.200 Pensions, you get nothing. Low on munitions. It's an insane idea. 1:05:49.720 --> 1:05:52.440 Now President Trump says we're not and I didn't believe 1:05:52.480 --> 1:05:53.080 the reporting. 1:05:53.480 --> 1:05:56.560 And look that you can argue in a. 1:05:56.480 --> 1:05:59.920 Whole series of ways that this was a story that 1:06:00.200 --> 1:06:02.680 got leaked and you know it's Sun sou and when 1:06:02.720 --> 1:06:04.280 you're strong, make your enemy think you're weak. 1:06:04.480 --> 1:06:06.800 On all these kinds of things, you can. 1:06:06.760 --> 1:06:08.840 Argue it was done to make the administration look bad 1:06:08.880 --> 1:06:12.480 and put pressure on them to stop being engaged with Iran. 1:06:13.760 --> 1:06:18.240 It also could be true again the firings. But Trump's 1:06:18.240 --> 1:06:20.800 point is no, no, no, no, there's no issue at all 1:06:22.920 --> 1:06:28.360 with Hegseth. There are a lot of people on the 1:06:28.440 --> 1:06:31.040 left who want to say all the nasty things in 1:06:31.080 --> 1:06:32.160 the world about Pete hag Seth. 1:06:32.160 --> 1:06:35.640 They're more than welcome to I think Pete hag Seth 1:06:35.640 --> 1:06:39.920 has done an incredibly good job. The recruitment rates are up. 1:06:41.400 --> 1:06:45.920 The focus of the military is clear that we are 1:06:45.960 --> 1:06:49.040 indeed about lethality in the military, and we are not 1:06:49.120 --> 1:06:52.480 going to stop that. We are going to push that. 1:06:54.120 --> 1:06:58.680 We want a fighting force that can fight. I love 1:06:58.720 --> 1:07:03.640 every bit of it. This is absolutely what I want, 1:07:03.680 --> 1:07:06.120 and I think Hegseth has been very good at It 1:07:06.120 --> 1:07:10.080 has been a breadth of fresh air on the subject. 1:07:11.120 --> 1:07:15.200 And I think the recruitment goals tell the story, and 1:07:15.280 --> 1:07:22.960 if we are paying attention, the recruitment goals are being 1:07:23.000 --> 1:07:26.240 achieved and they're being exceeded. But yet we are saying 1:07:26.280 --> 1:07:29.120 that the military is becoming a more strict place and 1:07:29.200 --> 1:07:33.040 a more disciplined place, more focused on the physical fitness harder. 1:07:34.120 --> 1:07:38.280 How do those two things jive. It is because what 1:07:38.360 --> 1:07:39.720 people want. 1:07:40.360 --> 1:07:44.560 Is a standard, and when you beat the standard out 1:07:44.600 --> 1:07:45.160 of them. 1:07:45.800 --> 1:07:51.400 Through outrageous policy, through welfare, through telling people that the 1:07:51.480 --> 1:07:54.640 system is terrible and rigged and can't help them, but 1:07:54.720 --> 1:07:57.400 here will provide for you. Because you can't do for yourself, 1:07:57.840 --> 1:08:02.600 you create a despondent society. You create a society that 1:08:02.600 --> 1:08:08.280 doesn't believe they can and that society becomes weak. And 1:08:08.320 --> 1:08:12.800 what people crave is structure and order and the recognition 1:08:12.920 --> 1:08:15.080 that they are strong and they can be strong and 1:08:15.080 --> 1:08:19.960 they can do this for themselves. I think it's been terrific. 1:08:20.840 --> 1:08:22.559 The one thing you have to do for yourself is 1:08:22.600 --> 1:08:26.879 protect your data online. You have to do it because 1:08:26.520 --> 1:08:29.400 these data brokers they've got these files on you, and 1:08:29.439 --> 1:08:30.240 they've got your home. 1:08:30.120 --> 1:08:32.960 Address, they've got your email address, they have your medical records. 1:08:32.960 --> 1:08:34.639 You know, they have the name of your kids, they 1:08:34.640 --> 1:08:38.719 have the names of your kids, and that file gets 1:08:38.720 --> 1:08:39.760 sold to scammers. 1:08:40.240 --> 1:08:41.439 People are losing is it. 1:08:41.479 --> 1:08:45.360 Americans losing twenty billion dollars plus each and every year 1:08:45.840 --> 1:08:48.960 to these fraudsters and the scammers. They're not getting lucky, 1:08:49.360 --> 1:08:52.839 they're getting prepared. Because your file is collected and packaged 1:08:52.880 --> 1:08:56.719 and sold, and it's done legally. You have to fight back. 1:08:57.280 --> 1:09:01.519 Use incognitive do something about your file.

Today, I 1:09:39.520 --> 1:09:40.759 promised I would share. 1:09:42.439 --> 1:09:46.599 The new athletic director at Purdue University, Tommy McClelland, who's 1:09:46.640 --> 1:09:50.360 taking it on the chin, and he's handling it pretty well. 1:09:51.280 --> 1:09:57.759 He's been doing some interviews about a really really really 1:09:57.960 --> 1:10:01.040 big foot in the mouth moments as he was making 1:10:01.080 --> 1:10:04.120 his announcement, right, Hey, it's a pleasure to be here. 1:10:04.120 --> 1:10:06.240 I can't wait to get started for Purdue University. 1:10:06.320 --> 1:10:10.240 Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, big ten And of course 1:10:11.240 --> 1:10:15.000 you're talking about the rivalry with Indiana University, which just 1:10:15.120 --> 1:10:20.200 won the national championship. Coach Kurt Signetti going undefeated, Vananda Mendoza, 1:10:20.280 --> 1:10:24.400 the whole story. Everybody knows that, it's an amazing story. 1:10:24.439 --> 1:10:28.480 This is what he said. 1:10:30.560 --> 1:10:33.160 As he was being welcomed, as as he was introducing 1:10:33.240 --> 1:10:36.880 himself to the university into America. 1:10:36.960 --> 1:10:40.200 Every recruit and every current student athlete will hear this 1:10:40.320 --> 1:10:45.040 message repeatedly. We are here to win championships. If you 1:10:45.040 --> 1:10:47.879 don't want to win championships, go to Indiana. 1:10:50.680 --> 1:10:56.880 They are coming off the biggest national championship victory ever. 1:10:58.960 --> 1:11:01.800 Why would you tell them to go to Indiana? Also, 1:11:01.880 --> 1:11:03.639 they have many more championships than Purdue. 1:11:04.720 --> 1:11:07.679 Not good. Now he has been. 1:11:07.520 --> 1:11:10.960 On the circuit today, a local stuff, national stuff. I'm 1:11:11.000 --> 1:11:14.920 with Pat mcavie as well, and in my neck of 1:11:14.960 --> 1:11:17.200 the woods in Indianapolis, he was on with a great 1:11:17.400 --> 1:11:21.040 sports host by name of Jay Querry, and he's like, 1:11:21.160 --> 1:11:21.519 he's like. 1:11:21.479 --> 1:11:23.760 Look, yeah, I stuck my foot. 1:11:23.760 --> 1:11:25.320 And I believe one of the lines he used is 1:11:25.920 --> 1:11:27.280 I play a lot of golf, and I hit that 1:11:27.280 --> 1:11:28.320 one directly in the water. 1:11:28.560 --> 1:11:29.920 There's still a lot of holes left to play. 1:11:31.479 --> 1:11:33.560 I'm telling you, there had to have been a conversation 1:11:33.640 --> 1:11:36.840 somewhere about whether or not you fire him. That's how 1:11:36.840 --> 1:11:42.719 insane that statement is insane. 1:11:43.080 --> 1:11:45.559 I don't think it's gonna happen, but it had to 1:11:45.600 --> 1:11:52.160 have been discussed. Just wow, I was a mess. This 1:11:52.240 --> 1:11:53.280 is Tony Katz today. 1:11:59.560 --> 1:12:04.800 Why from dall Hartbiner and the Crossroads of America. 1:12:04.960 --> 1:12:06.439 It's Tony Katz today. 1:12:06.960 --> 1:12:10.559 So the economy shed twenty three thousand jobs in July. 1:12:11.520 --> 1:12:16.400 It missed the expectations, and the market said that's cool. 1:12:16.640 --> 1:12:19.280 Technical and you said something, it's cool by us. We're 1:12:19.280 --> 1:12:21.280 fine with it. We're good with it, no problem. As 1:12:21.320 --> 1:12:24.519 a matter of fact, we'll go up, Tony Katz. Tony 1:12:24.600 --> 1:12:26.800 Katz today, Good to be with you. 1:12:27.040 --> 1:12:28.040 There are reasons, though. 1:12:28.960 --> 1:12:35.599 There are reasons, including, of course, inflation and rate hikes. 1:12:35.640 --> 1:12:39.440 Doctor Mattwill joined as economist at the University of Indianapolis. 1:12:39.960 --> 1:12:43.000 I started to understand this one early. But I want 1:12:43.040 --> 1:12:46.799 to understand what's in the jobs report. First, you took 1:12:46.880 --> 1:12:49.679 a look at it. We've got jobs report, We've got 1:12:49.880 --> 1:12:54.559 unemployment numbers. Walk me through what the report says, the 1:12:54.640 --> 1:12:56.479 jobs report and what it says to you. 1:12:57.560 --> 1:12:59.360 Okay, Well, I'm going to start off by telling you 1:12:59.400 --> 1:13:02.519 that the headline is bad. And just like the other 1:13:02.600 --> 1:13:05.120 day we talked about this. You know, headlines are bad, 1:13:05.280 --> 1:13:07.800 but when you look under the hood, it's actually good 1:13:07.840 --> 1:13:10.320 for the economy, believe it or not. So let's start 1:13:10.320 --> 1:13:14.120 with the headline minus twenty three thousand jobs, which is 1:13:14.160 --> 1:13:18.120 really interesting because the expectation is plus eight eighty thousand, 1:13:18.280 --> 1:13:22.040 so this was one hundred thousand job myths. That's a 1:13:22.040 --> 1:13:25.240 big deal. But let's now start looking underneath the hood. 1:13:25.800 --> 1:13:29.080 Unemployment rate dropped from four point two to four point 1:13:29.080 --> 1:13:33.479 one percent. That's good, Okay. Now for the bad. The 1:13:33.520 --> 1:13:36.600 only reason to drop is because the participation rate declined. 1:13:36.920 --> 1:13:39.800 Fewer people are looking for jobs, fewer people are in 1:13:39.840 --> 1:13:43.880 the workforce. Now more bad news for you. Tony, May 1:13:43.920 --> 1:13:47.880 and June were revised down by one hundred and three 1:13:47.880 --> 1:13:53.120 thousand jobs, so people didn't get employed this quarter. Argue 1:13:53.160 --> 1:13:56.800 this month, two big revisions. I mean, there's a lot 1:13:56.880 --> 1:13:59.880 going on there that's not good, but there is a 1:13:59.880 --> 1:14:04.679 good part to this. The private industry gained thirty thousand jobs, 1:14:05.000 --> 1:14:07.799 so there was a growth in private and the government 1:14:07.920 --> 1:14:11.920 lost fifty three thousand. This was all government job loss, 1:14:12.520 --> 1:14:15.920 So as far as the market's concerned, good Again, back 1:14:16.000 --> 1:14:20.320 to the same scene we've been talking about. Government is contracting, 1:14:20.960 --> 1:14:24.439 private industry is growing, and if you look across the board, 1:14:24.600 --> 1:14:28.000 there's some pretty good information in this I mean, construction 1:14:28.320 --> 1:14:33.120 twenty two thousand jobs up, durable goods, manufacturing eighteen thousand 1:14:33.200 --> 1:14:38.080 jobs up, transportation warehousing ten thousand jobs up. I mean, 1:14:38.160 --> 1:14:41.920 there is good news in this report for the private economy, 1:14:42.400 --> 1:14:45.479 and wages didn't grow that much. I know, again that 1:14:45.560 --> 1:14:48.599 sounds bad, but there's a story behind this and why 1:14:48.720 --> 1:14:51.400 this job's report is loved by the market. 1:14:52.800 --> 1:14:55.320 So I've went you on the government stuff, and I 1:14:55.320 --> 1:14:57.920 have discussed this now in a couple places. Your point 1:14:57.960 --> 1:15:01.840 that GDP grossmuster product one point five percent bad headline, 1:15:02.160 --> 1:15:06.080 But if government spending juices GDP, we had less government spend, 1:15:06.160 --> 1:15:07.840 which is good for us the taxpayer. 1:15:07.960 --> 1:15:10.280 It just makes the GDP number look worse. 1:15:10.680 --> 1:15:12.639 But yet when you look as you describe it, under 1:15:12.640 --> 1:15:18.519 the hood, things on some fundamentals, specifically manufacturing, very very solid. 1:15:18.920 --> 1:15:21.519 But when I took a look at market response and 1:15:21.640 --> 1:15:24.439 I watched the futures go up one hundred points in 1:15:24.520 --> 1:15:27.880 a blink of an eye after this report came out, 1:15:28.160 --> 1:15:30.360 it became pretty clear to me. And I feel like 1:15:31.040 --> 1:15:33.599 all this talking together has finally gotten me some level 1:15:33.640 --> 1:15:36.439 of degree, maybe only in associates, but still them on 1:15:36.520 --> 1:15:40.679 my way that what they saw is the job market 1:15:40.800 --> 1:15:44.200 might be weaker. So those in the Federal Reserve who 1:15:44.200 --> 1:15:47.880 are thinking about rate hikes to tamp down and tamper 1:15:47.960 --> 1:15:51.760 down inflation might think twice and no rate hikes is 1:15:51.800 --> 1:15:53.040 where the market wants to be. 1:15:53.200 --> 1:15:53.880 True or false? 1:15:55.880 --> 1:15:58.479 Close, Tony Close, I'm giving you a B, not an A. 1:15:58.880 --> 1:16:01.040 Yeah, the worse teacher ever. 1:16:01.720 --> 1:16:04.040 I'm sorry. Well, every time someone gets a bad grade, 1:16:04.080 --> 1:16:07.839 that's what they tell me. You're very close. The reason 1:16:08.120 --> 1:16:11.200 was the unemployment rate drop. So it's not that the 1:16:11.320 --> 1:16:13.920 job market is bad, it's that the wage growth is 1:16:13.960 --> 1:16:18.519 not exorbitant. Wage growth would indicate inflation. So the bad 1:16:18.560 --> 1:16:23.040 part where you're correct is in quotes, wage inflation is 1:16:23.080 --> 1:16:27.200 not there. And the unemployment rate stayed at four point one, 1:16:27.280 --> 1:16:29.320 I mean four two to four to one, so we 1:16:29.360 --> 1:16:33.520 didn't have hot unemployment. If we had significantly increasing unemployment, 1:16:34.000 --> 1:16:37.200 there would be pressure on the Fed to cut rates. 1:16:37.720 --> 1:16:41.919 There's inflation, which seems to be in this case moderate 1:16:42.439 --> 1:16:47.000 not outrageous, moderate, which is less pressure to increase rates. 1:16:47.280 --> 1:16:50.759 So the said, here's what happened this morning in the markets, 1:16:50.960 --> 1:16:53.760 there is a fifty seven percent chance that said was 1:16:53.800 --> 1:16:57.520 going to do a rate hike in September. That's there's 1:16:57.560 --> 1:17:00.479 stuff on Wall Street and the options market, in futures 1:17:00.520 --> 1:17:04.080 market that predicts that went down as soon as this 1:17:04.160 --> 1:17:06.360 came out. As soon as it came out the news 1:17:06.360 --> 1:17:10.080 on the unemployment, that probability dropped from fifty seven percent 1:17:10.600 --> 1:17:14.400 to forty seven percent. So the headline is this, inflation 1:17:14.600 --> 1:17:19.760 argues for a hike, employment argues against it, and this 1:17:19.840 --> 1:17:21.879 morning the employment one. 1:17:23.200 --> 1:17:26.920 Talking to doctor Matt will the economist from the University 1:17:27.439 --> 1:17:32.519 of Indianapolis. So when you talk about winning this back 1:17:32.640 --> 1:17:37.160 and forth, this seems to be a non scientific struggle. 1:17:37.800 --> 1:17:40.680 This only seems to be a reaction struggle. Am I 1:17:40.760 --> 1:17:41.280 right about that? 1:17:42.080 --> 1:17:44.320 Oh? Absolutely, that's exactly what's happening. 1:17:45.720 --> 1:17:53.720 So the reaction from Wall Street was that the lack of. 1:17:55.200 --> 1:18:01.479 Labor participation, which would show us we don't have wage inflation, 1:18:02.880 --> 1:18:05.439 means that everything is getting better. 1:18:09.520 --> 1:18:12.960 Yes, but your phrase reaction is why you might get 1:18:12.960 --> 1:18:16.559 an AUS on this now, because what happened is it's 1:18:16.560 --> 1:18:20.160 the reaction to the latest piece of news. You and 1:18:20.200 --> 1:18:24.000 I the other day talked about the PCE very high, 1:18:24.680 --> 1:18:31.840 CPI eh, okay, PPI terrible. That was Then today's news is, look, 1:18:32.240 --> 1:18:37.200 unemployment is pretty flat. That's good, wage increase not going 1:18:37.240 --> 1:18:41.439 through the roof. So what happened here is today's most 1:18:41.479 --> 1:18:47.360 immediate current news reaction is okay, inflation under control, no 1:18:47.680 --> 1:18:51.920 rate change. So that's what the market saw the latest reaction. Now, 1:18:51.960 --> 1:18:55.400 you know, something could happen tomorrow and completely change the 1:18:55.400 --> 1:18:58.000 game again. But this is what the market's doing with 1:18:58.160 --> 1:19:03.080 the news that got today. Hey, unemployment's fine, wage inflacement, 1:19:03.360 --> 1:19:07.240 inflation is reasonable, no reason to overreact here. So the 1:19:07.360 --> 1:19:11.640 Fed again, only a forty four percent chance they're going 1:19:11.680 --> 1:19:14.400 to do a rate increase. Now the market likes that. 1:19:14.960 --> 1:19:18.080 The market liked it so much that as soon as 1:19:18.120 --> 1:19:22.920 they got that information, the futures jump. Nasdaq futures immediately 1:19:22.920 --> 1:19:26.439 went up one point one percent. SMT futures went up 1:19:26.479 --> 1:19:30.120 half a percent instantly, instantly on the news coming out. 1:19:30.160 --> 1:19:33.040 And the tenure Treasury, which you talked about, the tenure 1:19:33.040 --> 1:19:36.960 treasury sell eight BIPs eight basis points down to four 1:19:36.960 --> 1:19:38.920 point one six or the two year treasury, I mean, 1:19:39.320 --> 1:19:41.599 and the ten yuere also went down to four point 1:19:41.600 --> 1:19:46.080 six to one immediately reaction lower treasury rates. Market bumped 1:19:46.200 --> 1:19:49.479 both Nasdaq and S and P across the board. The 1:19:49.520 --> 1:19:50.320 market loves this. 1:19:50.880 --> 1:19:53.800 I can't discuss something else that I'm surprised. I haven't 1:19:53.840 --> 1:19:56.920 heard from Best in the Treasure Secretary or President Trump 1:19:57.520 --> 1:20:01.320 that the US trade deficit contracted. It went to seventy 1:20:01.360 --> 1:20:04.639 three point three billion in June from seventy seven point 1:20:04.720 --> 1:20:05.800 six billion in May. 1:20:05.840 --> 1:20:09.559 That story just came out earlier this week. 1:20:10.000 --> 1:20:14.080 Everything about tariffs is about trade deficits, that somehow trade 1:20:14.120 --> 1:20:15.600 deficits are the end of civilization. 1:20:15.800 --> 1:20:18.240 I don't believe that they are. I believe it's a. 1:20:18.240 --> 1:20:23.360 Bad reason to implement tariffs as a concept. Does this 1:20:23.600 --> 1:20:28.000 trade deficit going down not? Does that have an effect 1:20:28.120 --> 1:20:30.960 on people on how people see the market. 1:20:31.040 --> 1:20:32.599 Manufacturing futures et cetera. 1:20:34.880 --> 1:20:37.120 No, when you say people, if you're talking about Wall 1:20:37.160 --> 1:20:40.800 Street and financial experts, no, because actually what you saw 1:20:41.000 --> 1:20:44.679 was a blip. The trade deficits has been growing since 1:20:44.800 --> 1:20:49.200 tariff institution has been stabilized, and this is exactly what 1:20:49.280 --> 1:20:52.000 I consider a good thing. Again, I'm a fan of 1:20:52.040 --> 1:20:55.160 trade deficits. I'm not against them because they cause foreign 1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:58.880 direct investment. We buy lots of cheap crap from overseas, 1:20:59.320 --> 1:21:02.240 and those dollars that we spend flow back into the 1:21:02.320 --> 1:21:04.719 United States in the form of investing in our country, 1:21:04.760 --> 1:21:07.720 which is how you grow your economy. So I am 1:21:07.840 --> 1:21:09.960 I've got lots of research on this. I'm a fan 1:21:10.320 --> 1:21:12.599 of these trade deficits. So I don't think he made 1:21:12.640 --> 1:21:14.799 a comment about it because it was just a blip. 1:21:15.040 --> 1:21:17.920 And if he here's the big deal. If he were 1:21:17.920 --> 1:21:20.280 to bring up the topic, Tony, the secret between you 1:21:20.360 --> 1:21:22.639 and me. If he were to bring that topic up, 1:21:22.800 --> 1:21:25.799 then everyone would start talking about Wait, the trade deficits 1:21:25.800 --> 1:21:28.960 have been growing significantly since you put the terroriffs in place, 1:21:29.400 --> 1:21:32.000 So I think he wants to avoid that topic altogether. 1:21:33.040 --> 1:21:37.240 Talking to doctor Matt Will economists at the University of Indianapolis, 1:21:38.400 --> 1:21:42.479 let's continue the conversation, if we would, if we can, 1:21:42.640 --> 1:21:45.400 because I have mentioned that there have been a couple 1:21:45.479 --> 1:21:49.360 of FED governors before this report came out today and 1:21:49.400 --> 1:21:51.920 the market is making their bet. A couple of FED 1:21:51.960 --> 1:21:54.639 governors have said it's time for a rate increase. The 1:21:54.640 --> 1:22:00.160 inflation is not down, we need a rate hike. Are 1:22:00.240 --> 1:22:03.000 they correct? Does this report change them at all? 1:22:05.000 --> 1:22:10.280 It changes them. They're correct that inflation isn't gone, but 1:22:10.320 --> 1:22:15.400 their solution is wrong. And this report gives wash some 1:22:15.640 --> 1:22:18.360 time to adjust. And this is where it gets that 1:22:18.479 --> 1:22:23.439 complex assets thing again. They had a legitimate point. Do 1:22:23.439 --> 1:22:26.040 you want to camp down inflation and one of the 1:22:26.040 --> 1:22:28.320 tools you do it is to increase rates. Well, when 1:22:28.320 --> 1:22:31.120 you increase rates, that's going to decrease investment because money 1:22:31.160 --> 1:22:34.400 costs more. So that's a you know, one of the 1:22:34.439 --> 1:22:36.880 things Trump always argues against me. But there's another way 1:22:36.960 --> 1:22:39.639 to control inflation. And that's what Warsh is trying to do. 1:22:40.120 --> 1:22:45.000 He's slowly moving the ship. He Slowly's got this commission going. 1:22:45.040 --> 1:22:48.160 It's going to look at selling assets off the balance sheet. 1:22:48.520 --> 1:22:51.280 Good for him. So he's working on that and this 1:22:51.360 --> 1:22:54.640 report gives him cover. It gives him more time to 1:22:54.720 --> 1:22:58.400 let his political technique, his little commission do its job, 1:22:59.000 --> 1:23:01.920 because he's going to be able to to these three governors. Okay, 1:23:01.960 --> 1:23:05.280 hold on, can't you see Look, unemployment flats, no reason 1:23:05.320 --> 1:23:08.479 to increase rates. Everything's wonderful right now, people go back 1:23:08.479 --> 1:23:11.759 into your corner. So I think this buys him time 1:23:12.200 --> 1:23:15.280 to not worry about the whole rape situation while he 1:23:15.400 --> 1:23:19.080 gets his ducks in line to do a huge asset sale. 1:23:19.280 --> 1:23:21.480 And I think he's going to pull it off. I'm confident, 1:23:21.800 --> 1:23:23.879 I'm patient, and I think he's going to succeed. 1:23:24.160 --> 1:23:25.479 I want to I want to see it happen, like 1:23:25.520 --> 1:23:27.519 I want to see how that plays out. But there 1:23:27.520 --> 1:23:29.280 were some other things that happen I want people to 1:23:29.280 --> 1:23:31.679 be aware of in the market, And you've been making 1:23:31.800 --> 1:23:36.680 mention of this. We've talked often about layoffs right, a 1:23:36.720 --> 1:23:39.680 lot of layoffs in Tech Wall Sheet Journal, discussing the 1:23:39.680 --> 1:23:42.160 fact that the new data shows the job cuts are 1:23:42.160 --> 1:23:45.080 down forty one percent so far this year, which would 1:23:45.080 --> 1:23:48.760 make one believe that, Okay, we've done enough cutting. Let's 1:23:48.840 --> 1:23:53.160 actually see if our AI investments increased productivity. Maybe we 1:23:53.280 --> 1:23:55.640 just really need these people. There's only so much you 1:23:55.680 --> 1:23:58.040 can cut. We still have a business to run products 1:23:58.040 --> 1:24:02.600 to sell, et cetera. But within this is the recognition 1:24:02.760 --> 1:24:05.440 that software is getting. 1:24:05.080 --> 1:24:07.280 The living, not kicked out of it. 1:24:07.400 --> 1:24:09.759 That when we talk all about the technology and AI 1:24:09.880 --> 1:24:14.360 transforming the economy and all that jazz software, I don't 1:24:14.360 --> 1:24:16.400 know if they mean software as a service or software 1:24:16.479 --> 1:24:19.000 in general is getting slapped around. 1:24:19.600 --> 1:24:21.479 What is happening in that in that sector? 1:24:22.320 --> 1:24:25.400 Well, I like what you said. You said productivity, and 1:24:25.479 --> 1:24:29.160 we've seen in fact today's report had a two percent 1:24:29.280 --> 1:24:33.599 increase in productivity, So that is a side benefit at 1:24:33.640 --> 1:24:37.839 O a consequence the main benefit of AI. So what's happening? 1:24:37.840 --> 1:24:40.439 And you're right, it's SaaS as a service software as 1:24:40.439 --> 1:24:43.040 a service, I should say. And what's happening is companies 1:24:43.120 --> 1:24:46.800 like Workday and Salesforce and Adobe, and we talked about 1:24:46.840 --> 1:24:51.240 the other day, IBM while sixty nine billion dollars in 1:24:51.400 --> 1:24:55.799 value in one single day because their software got killed. 1:24:56.439 --> 1:25:00.680 So what's happening is AI is replacing software. I'll give 1:25:00.720 --> 1:25:03.719 you my own personal example. I've got to put together 1:25:03.800 --> 1:25:07.760 this schedule of classes for students. It takes forever to 1:25:07.800 --> 1:25:11.880 go through all the gyrations and the formulas, and I 1:25:12.040 --> 1:25:14.839 now have an AHI that can do it. In minutes 1:25:15.320 --> 1:25:19.920 compared today's there's software on the market that does that. Well, 1:25:19.960 --> 1:25:23.599 the people that sell that software, they're not selling software. 1:25:23.800 --> 1:25:25.760 I can just turn on my AI, tell it what 1:25:25.880 --> 1:25:29.000 I want, and it gives me the same output. That 1:25:29.160 --> 1:25:31.840 is what's happening to companies like Workday and Salesforce and 1:25:31.880 --> 1:25:36.920 Adobe and IBM. They're getting beaten down because people can 1:25:36.960 --> 1:25:40.240 go on their computer on their phone and get the 1:25:40.320 --> 1:25:43.800 same output quality that they were getting from a piece 1:25:43.840 --> 1:25:46.599 of software that costs them a fortune just two years ago. 1:25:48.640 --> 1:25:56.080 How does this play into overall tech sector? Are there 1:25:56.160 --> 1:26:01.000 companies that care about their software products or are they 1:26:01.000 --> 1:26:06.679 willing to sacrifice at all to the on the altar 1:26:06.720 --> 1:26:10.000 of AI because that's the only thing that matters. 1:26:10.600 --> 1:26:13.120 You know what, I don't like this phrase, but I 1:26:13.200 --> 1:26:16.280 have to use it. It's a massive paradigm shift. 1:26:17.479 --> 1:26:18.960 That's the phrase. You're right about that. 1:26:19.960 --> 1:26:21.840 You know again, I don't like using that phrase, but 1:26:21.880 --> 1:26:25.200 that's what's happening. It's what companies are doing. Is it's 1:26:25.320 --> 1:26:29.080 literally shoepayers creative destruction that you and I have talked 1:26:29.120 --> 1:26:33.880 about before. This whole software industry is being upended. It's 1:26:33.920 --> 1:26:38.080 not going to disappear it's going to reformulate so people 1:26:38.439 --> 1:26:40.400 companies that are willing to say, Okay, we're going to 1:26:40.479 --> 1:26:43.120 look at this differently. So instead of hiring IBM to 1:26:43.200 --> 1:26:46.120 write some software, I'm going to hire a bunch of 1:26:46.200 --> 1:26:49.679 AI experts and they're going to develop prompts and custom 1:26:49.800 --> 1:26:53.000 gems and custom GPPs, and they're going to create these 1:26:53.040 --> 1:26:57.160 AI environment so that any one of my lower level 1:26:57.400 --> 1:27:01.680 employees can do the same thing that that software was 1:27:01.720 --> 1:27:06.600 doing before at a cheaper price. So they're really transforming 1:27:06.640 --> 1:27:10.839 their businesses away from reliance on software which is static, 1:27:11.120 --> 1:27:14.519 you've got to buy updates. You know, it has bugs. Yeah, 1:27:14.560 --> 1:27:17.599 AI is not perfect, but it can do the job 1:27:18.000 --> 1:27:21.479 much easier, quicker, and with less overhead. So companies are 1:27:21.520 --> 1:27:23.360 just transform They still have to do the same thing 1:27:23.400 --> 1:27:25.880 to You still got to edit your audio and your 1:27:25.960 --> 1:27:28.320 videos and you've got to get them published on your 1:27:28.400 --> 1:27:32.720 various platforms. Well, now the AI is going to alleviate 1:27:32.760 --> 1:27:35.680 your need to buy a bunch of software to do that. 1:27:36.400 --> 1:27:40.120 Doctor Matt Will, economists at the University of Indianapolis. I 1:27:40.160 --> 1:27:42.360 appreciate you taking the time to be with us more 1:27:42.360 --> 1:27:44.920 to get to this is Tony Katz today, it's the. 1:27:44.920 --> 1:27:48.839 Ongoing war in Iran having an impact and negative impact 1:27:48.920 --> 1:27:52.720 up on the US economy. Oil energy prices are a 1:27:52.760 --> 1:27:54.439 little bit inflated, but we. 1:27:54.400 --> 1:27:57.960 Could say that way less that people expected. But we're 1:27:58.120 --> 1:27:59.920 mindel of the fact the gasoline prices. 1:27:59.640 --> 1:28:01.519 Are high, and we're making many. 1:28:01.360 --> 1:28:04.000 Steps to help reduce the stress of that for people. 1:28:04.240 --> 1:28:09.160 Can you come over here? The answer is yes. I 1:28:09.200 --> 1:28:11.680 mean I like Kevin Hassett a lot. 1:28:11.960 --> 1:28:16.479 National Economic Council Director, I like them a lot. 1:28:16.560 --> 1:28:20.439 But that's we say it a little bit of a 1:28:20.520 --> 1:28:21.519 bit of a thing. 1:28:21.640 --> 1:28:26.519 With the energy prices, we still have barrel price up today. 1:28:26.640 --> 1:28:29.400 Tony Katz, Tony Katz today. God's always great to be 1:28:29.439 --> 1:28:32.720 with you. Thanks for having me here. The number is 1:28:32.720 --> 1:28:35.800 not going anywhere because there's no deal with Iran. There's 1:28:35.840 --> 1:28:39.120 no deal with Iran. Iran wanted to have a deal 1:28:39.200 --> 1:28:48.639 where no US or Israeli tankers could go through the Strait. Okay, okay, sure, sure, 1:28:48.680 --> 1:28:54.040 that's that's fantastic. Then there's the story that a deal 1:28:54.080 --> 1:28:56.120 with I ran over her moves may require. 1:28:55.800 --> 1:28:57.840 A compromise from Trump. This is Newsmax. 1:28:58.960 --> 1:29:04.120 With the article he divides the world into winners and losers, 1:29:04.160 --> 1:29:08.520 and this would make him a loser, according to one expert. 1:29:09.080 --> 1:29:12.720 And that is that image would be intolerable for him. 1:29:13.280 --> 1:29:16.560 So this is about levels of control and whether or 1:29:16.560 --> 1:29:20.360 not the Iranian regime can still have any control. 1:29:19.960 --> 1:29:21.559 The way the Iranians want to see it. 1:29:21.960 --> 1:29:26.360 They control one route, oman controls another route, and so 1:29:26.439 --> 1:29:29.640 therefore there's still the people who make the decisions. 1:29:29.200 --> 1:29:32.240 On who goes through. The Iranians, in. 1:29:32.160 --> 1:29:39.280 Their entire methodology of negotiation is never ever, ever, ever relent. 1:29:40.240 --> 1:29:44.280 Never keep up the heartache, keep up the hassle. The 1:29:44.320 --> 1:29:46.800 other side relents because they just grow tired of it, 1:29:46.840 --> 1:29:50.519 and you win. That's their methodology, which is why I 1:29:50.560 --> 1:29:53.160 have stated from the beginning the only answer is the 1:29:53.240 --> 1:29:54.639 end of the regime, because it's the. 1:29:54.520 --> 1:29:55.880 Only way anything can be done. 1:29:56.800 --> 1:29:59.040 And all I'm doing, I mean, I knew this before 1:29:59.080 --> 1:30:02.040 Trump put anything out on social media years ago. 1:30:02.800 --> 1:30:04.160 He put out on social. 1:30:03.800 --> 1:30:07.120 Media, Iran never won a war, never lost a negotiation. 1:30:08.439 --> 1:30:13.080 That's exactly what's happening here. And so if we want 1:30:13.120 --> 1:30:15.479 to talk about how President Trump looks like he lost 1:30:15.920 --> 1:30:18.240 every day, it's like, oh, we got We're going to 1:30:18.320 --> 1:30:20.360 get to a deal soon soon. I think we could 1:30:20.360 --> 1:30:23.160 see something soon. And he was in the Oval yesterday 1:30:23.200 --> 1:30:25.880 talking about how we saw oil prices down to numbers, 1:30:25.880 --> 1:30:28.439 knowing thought they could be this loan. We'll get there 1:30:28.479 --> 1:30:31.920 again soon. You're telling me about what happened yesterday. I 1:30:32.000 --> 1:30:33.599 want to know what's gonna happen today and what's gonna 1:30:33.600 --> 1:30:37.000 happen tomorrow. Those oil prices are what I'm talking about. 1:30:37.120 --> 1:30:40.000 You can't sell well. Three months ago it was only 1:30:40.040 --> 1:30:41.920 a dollar eighty five a gallon. Two months ago is 1:30:41.960 --> 1:30:44.200 only a dollar eighty five a gallon in Iowa. That 1:30:44.320 --> 1:30:48.519 doesn't move anybody. And every time you say well soon, 1:30:48.680 --> 1:30:51.719 well soon, as I have argued, I think he looks 1:30:51.720 --> 1:30:55.160 weak and who is advising him on this because he 1:30:55.160 --> 1:30:55.679 doesn't want. 1:30:55.560 --> 1:30:59.200 To look that way. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. 1:31:00.439 --> 1:31:02.960 If you want to argue, mister President, that you can 1:31:03.000 --> 1:31:05.719 string this out for forever, you have plenty of patients. Great, 1:31:06.080 --> 1:31:08.120 that's a position of strength. But don't tell us a 1:31:08.200 --> 1:31:10.920 deal be soon. You know, when the Iranians come to 1:31:11.000 --> 1:31:13.920 us and they beg forgiveness and they surrender, we'll have 1:31:14.000 --> 1:31:14.320 a deal. 1:31:15.120 --> 1:31:17.840 Thanks. Go wait for them to learn their lesson. We've 1:31:17.880 --> 1:31:18.679 got all the time. 1:31:18.520 --> 1:31:18.880 In the world. 1:31:18.960 --> 1:31:22.439 It's all on them that would be a position of strength. 1:31:22.920 --> 1:31:36.760 This is Tony Katz today. 1:31:39.880 --> 1:31:43.640 So the way this was described was unhinged, which is 1:31:44.080 --> 1:31:50.120 a term you see often. It was OutKick putting out 1:31:50.320 --> 1:31:53.120 a post, and then Fox News with Jones OutKick putting 1:31:53.200 --> 1:31:58.400 out the article Meghan Rapino goes on an unhinged rant. 1:31:58.920 --> 1:32:03.439 Unhinged usually means screaming and yelling and out of someone's mind. Well, 1:32:03.479 --> 1:32:05.840 I don't think Megan Rapino is screaming or yelling here. 1:32:06.840 --> 1:32:10.600 She's just out of her mind. Tony Katz, Tony Katz today. 1:32:10.400 --> 1:32:11.559 Is so good to be with you, guys. 1:32:11.680 --> 1:32:14.280 Find everything I do at Tony kats dot com. Don't 1:32:14.320 --> 1:32:18.960 forget to grab the videos on YouTube and rumble Tony Katz, 1:32:19.200 --> 1:32:24.280 go and subscribe right now. Megan Rapino, the soccer player 1:32:24.600 --> 1:32:28.880 who is beyond a leftist? Who is I would argue 1:32:28.880 --> 1:32:31.559 in this bit of audio I'm going to share with you, 1:32:32.000 --> 1:32:34.920 is going to prove it hateful. We're talking about a 1:32:34.960 --> 1:32:39.759 hateful person here, I would also argue, dishonest person. She's 1:32:39.800 --> 1:32:42.679 the one who took the knee in solidarity with Colin 1:32:42.760 --> 1:32:46.360 Kaepernick for the national anthem. Colin Kaepernick didn't even do 1:32:46.360 --> 1:32:49.040 it in solidarity with Colin Kaepernick. He wanted attention, He 1:32:49.080 --> 1:32:51.360 got attention. Didn't get a job in the NFL, but 1:32:51.400 --> 1:32:57.320 he got attention. When Dave Chappelle said of Colin Kaepernick, 1:32:57.520 --> 1:32:59.879 he didn't need to do that. His belly was fullby 1:33:00.240 --> 1:33:02.920 that for us. No, he did not. Dave has it 1:33:02.960 --> 1:33:05.519 completely wrong. Don't tell me. I can't tell Dave Chapelle 1:33:05.520 --> 1:33:08.559 he's got it wrong. When he's wrong, he's wrong when 1:33:08.560 --> 1:33:09.000 he's right. 1:33:09.040 --> 1:33:11.160 I've agreed many times when he has said something I 1:33:11.160 --> 1:33:13.760 haven't thought of, I said, doubt, say that's amazing. But 1:33:13.840 --> 1:33:16.240 he's wrong on this. He doesn't have it anywhere close. 1:33:16.600 --> 1:33:19.120 And he can engage with me in all the race 1:33:19.240 --> 1:33:22.280 this and you don't understand that he wants In the end, 1:33:22.720 --> 1:33:27.040 I do understand, he's just wrong. Colin Kaepernick did nothing 1:33:27.240 --> 1:33:29.200 for anyone else, and no one is stronger for it. 1:33:29.240 --> 1:33:32.920 He did not even take a stand by taking a knee. 1:33:33.200 --> 1:33:34.679 Not a conversation for another day. 1:33:35.560 --> 1:33:41.479 Meghan Rapino believes, in all of her radical leftism that 1:33:41.720 --> 1:33:46.439 men can be women and trans women which are men, 1:33:47.080 --> 1:33:50.679 can be in women's sports. And this is her argument 1:33:50.840 --> 1:33:57.160 against Sophie Cunningham of the Indiana Fever and Riley Gaines, 1:33:57.840 --> 1:34:01.960 the swimmer who took on the madness of was it 1:34:02.080 --> 1:34:05.960 Mia Thomas or whatever his name was, and the swimmers 1:34:06.000 --> 1:34:09.679 and really has made this a front and center issue 1:34:09.720 --> 1:34:13.479 as it should be. Again, I will state we're talking 1:34:13.520 --> 1:34:15.880 about a culture war here. That has to be one. 1:34:16.120 --> 1:34:19.360 It is a culture war. I accept the terms. We win, 1:34:19.479 --> 1:34:23.800 they lose. That's that because it's far more than just 1:34:23.880 --> 1:34:26.000 about whether or not a man is in women's sports. 1:34:26.360 --> 1:34:29.519 It is about a society written large, of course it is. 1:34:29.720 --> 1:34:31.800 It's about the idea of normalcy. And can I tell 1:34:31.880 --> 1:34:34.599 you I have put out videos about this where I've 1:34:34.600 --> 1:34:39.360 discussed Sophie Cunningham being normal and the amount of people 1:34:39.439 --> 1:34:40.559 who come at me. 1:34:41.960 --> 1:34:45.960 Why in the world would you call it normal? What 1:34:46.120 --> 1:34:47.960 other people are not normal? Who are you to decide 1:34:48.000 --> 1:34:48.680 what normal is? 1:34:50.000 --> 1:34:53.160 Sophie Cunningham said girls sports are for girls and if 1:34:53.160 --> 1:34:55.400 we can't call that normal, we can't call anything normal. 1:34:56.240 --> 1:35:00.720 And I think you understand that that's the the objective. 1:35:01.320 --> 1:35:07.880 The objective is to end the concept of normalcy. Everything 1:35:08.000 --> 1:35:11.400 is up to debate, Everything can be questioned, everything can 1:35:11.439 --> 1:35:14.240 be seen as okay or acceptable. That is a total 1:35:14.320 --> 1:35:16.439 lack of standards and The answer is no, not going 1:35:16.520 --> 1:35:17.520 to have that society. 1:35:17.880 --> 1:35:20.760 And I get that it puts people like us on 1:35:20.800 --> 1:35:21.480 the ounce. 1:35:21.360 --> 1:35:22.960 With these other people, and they want to be very 1:35:23.040 --> 1:35:25.800 violent about it, and they control a lot of the institutions. 1:35:25.800 --> 1:35:29.240 And my answer is game on, let's go do this thing. 1:35:30.160 --> 1:35:32.839 It's a culture war. We win, they lose. 1:35:33.200 --> 1:35:37.280 That's that men are not women and men are not 1:35:37.320 --> 1:35:38.400 welcome in women's sports. 1:35:38.600 --> 1:35:40.360 Don't care if you like it, don't care if you're 1:35:40.400 --> 1:35:42.760 happy about it, don't care if you cry, and. 1:35:42.760 --> 1:35:45.280 Don't scream to me that it's going to lead to you. 1:35:45.200 --> 1:35:48.360 Committing suicide, because, with all due respect, a guy who 1:35:48.360 --> 1:35:51.400 has spent some time being suicidal myself doesn't make me 1:35:51.439 --> 1:35:55.840 an expert. Not an expert. And what makes someone suicidal? 1:35:55.880 --> 1:35:57.839 I can only tell you where I was in my twenties. 1:35:58.360 --> 1:36:01.719 Also on nine eight eight. That is the suicide prevention hotline. 1:36:01.760 --> 1:36:05.559 I never called. I never did that, but if you 1:36:05.640 --> 1:36:09.600 need to, you should. It gets better, it can, It 1:36:09.640 --> 1:36:10.280 takes work. 1:36:10.640 --> 1:36:12.639 I'm right here. Oh. 1:36:13.160 --> 1:36:16.639 My twenties were a miserable experience, and the depression took 1:36:16.680 --> 1:36:19.280 me while into my thirties until I started to figure 1:36:19.280 --> 1:36:22.040 out that. First of all, I wasn't crazy. I was 1:36:22.120 --> 1:36:25.559 just doing things that could in no way provide me happiness. 1:36:25.600 --> 1:36:27.639 Why wasn't I changing the things that I was doing? 1:36:28.640 --> 1:36:32.559 Which is the whole point that I only speak from 1:36:32.600 --> 1:36:35.680 a personal experience. Here, I'll let an expert discuss from 1:36:35.680 --> 1:36:43.200 an expert's position, happiness does not come from without, It 1:36:43.280 --> 1:36:44.400 only comes from within. 1:36:46.000 --> 1:36:48.320 So if somebody is miserable. 1:36:47.840 --> 1:36:51.720 With who they are, me, lying to them is not 1:36:51.800 --> 1:36:56.520 going to help them, But lying will make me miserable. 1:36:57.520 --> 1:37:01.799 What I learned about myself is that I was lying 1:37:01.960 --> 1:37:05.519 all the time. They weren't big lives. They weren't at 1:37:05.600 --> 1:37:08.880 landish lies. I wasn't lying about a job or I 1:37:08.920 --> 1:37:14.879 wasn't lying to my wife. I was lying about being unhappy. 1:37:14.960 --> 1:37:18.040 I was lying about everything being fine. They were these 1:37:18.640 --> 1:37:26.120 small little things. And when I stopped. When I stopped lying, 1:37:26.680 --> 1:37:29.120 and there's a multiplicity of things. I won't get into everything. 1:37:30.400 --> 1:37:34.040 I swear to you, in an instant, it got better. 1:37:35.080 --> 1:37:38.000 It required more honesty. Honesty is certainly tough. What I 1:37:38.120 --> 1:37:40.840 found is it's a tough that I like. It's a 1:37:40.840 --> 1:37:45.680 tough that's good because it's clarifying. When you lie, you 1:37:45.680 --> 1:37:46.759 can't fix the thing. 1:37:46.800 --> 1:37:49.240 When you're honest. You can fix the thing, or at 1:37:49.320 --> 1:37:52.800 least come to accept the thing, whatever that thing in 1:37:52.840 --> 1:37:54.200 your head is or the thing. 1:37:54.160 --> 1:37:56.559 The problem in front of you, et cetera. That's better. 1:37:58.160 --> 1:38:03.040 I've always said, you know, in my contract negotiations, for example, 1:38:03.680 --> 1:38:06.200 I don't understand. And this has happened in multiple companies. 1:38:06.240 --> 1:38:08.759 It's happened for years. You've dealt with this kind of stuff. 1:38:09.520 --> 1:38:13.160 These people who want to they're having the negotiation. They're 1:38:13.200 --> 1:38:16.240 still kind of playing a game, and well, where do 1:38:16.280 --> 1:38:17.000 you see yourself? 1:38:17.000 --> 1:38:20.360 And what do you want? Dude? You know what I provide? 1:38:20.840 --> 1:38:25.519 How much? Here's what I want? Boom? Or here's your 1:38:25.560 --> 1:38:28.240 offer boom, here's my counter boom. Can we be done? 1:38:28.280 --> 1:38:31.400 We can finish this in ten minutes and then go 1:38:31.479 --> 1:38:34.280 have lunch. Don't you want to have lunch? I hear 1:38:34.360 --> 1:38:37.479 they have truffle fries. Let's go get some truffle fries. 1:38:37.680 --> 1:38:40.559 Who doesn't love some truffle fries? I love them, by 1:38:40.600 --> 1:38:43.240 the way. I'll take regular fries, sure, but if they're 1:38:43.240 --> 1:38:44.880 truffle fries, I'll be like, I'll give those a go, 1:38:44.960 --> 1:38:46.719 and if I don't like them, I'll get the regular fries. 1:38:47.520 --> 1:38:49.920 That's right, I'll order both and then see which one 1:38:49.920 --> 1:38:52.920 I want. That's the kind of man I am. Ten minutes, 1:38:53.400 --> 1:38:57.080 that's all I need. I don't need the game. Well, Tony, 1:38:57.120 --> 1:38:59.479 we really value you, but you have to understand the 1:38:59.560 --> 1:39:00.920 situation that we're. 1:39:00.720 --> 1:39:05.479 In, how much I don't know about you. 1:39:05.520 --> 1:39:08.040 I don't need any of the rest. I don't need 1:39:08.160 --> 1:39:11.680 any of that of that kind of stuff. And I 1:39:11.760 --> 1:39:18.320 swear to you that the changing of this mindset has 1:39:20.080 --> 1:39:22.800 further solidified this. I mean, I accept the fact that 1:39:22.840 --> 1:39:25.959 for some people it's jarring and off putting. I accept, 1:39:26.600 --> 1:39:30.360 but I also accept that that's part of the deal. 1:39:30.920 --> 1:39:33.120 But since in the overall it works for me so well, 1:39:33.160 --> 1:39:35.720 it's part of the deal. I accept this. 1:39:36.840 --> 1:39:38.919 It doesn't mean that there aren't moments where I'm unhappy, 1:39:38.960 --> 1:39:40.719 and I can talk to you about a million things 1:39:40.760 --> 1:39:46.120 where I have real issues with satisfaction, right, But I 1:39:46.320 --> 1:39:48.719 don't think I'm so different in that regard from other people. 1:39:50.160 --> 1:39:52.719 But one of the things that I do know, going 1:39:52.760 --> 1:39:56.400 back to Megan Rapino, is that if I have to 1:39:56.560 --> 1:39:58.519 be told, or if I'm going to be told that 1:39:58.560 --> 1:40:01.400 I have to lie and call a man a woman, 1:40:02.040 --> 1:40:04.320 I'm going to go back to lying and I can't 1:40:04.320 --> 1:40:08.640 do that because being a liar and lying to myself 1:40:08.680 --> 1:40:12.400 and lying to others made me miserable, made me depressed, 1:40:12.439 --> 1:40:15.519 and made me think about ending my own life. I'm 1:40:15.520 --> 1:40:19.599 not doing that for Meghan Rapino. Screw you, honey, I don't. 1:40:19.840 --> 1:40:23.200 I refuse to care about your feelings more than I 1:40:23.240 --> 1:40:26.599 care about my feelings. You don't care about my feelings 1:40:26.640 --> 1:40:29.320 at all. I think my feelings matter. I don't think 1:40:29.320 --> 1:40:31.679 I should be rude to you or rude to somebody 1:40:31.680 --> 1:40:35.439 else who's going through gender dysphoria and having this mental issue. 1:40:35.479 --> 1:40:36.880 I don't think I should be mean. I think we 1:40:36.880 --> 1:40:39.000 should be considerate and kind and decent, loving. 1:40:39.040 --> 1:40:39.639 Of course I. 1:40:39.600 --> 1:40:43.880 Do, but don't ask me to lie to satisfy somebody 1:40:43.920 --> 1:40:44.719 else's lie. 1:40:45.800 --> 1:40:48.760 I'm not doing that. I won't be a part of that. 1:40:49.960 --> 1:40:53.680 And thus, from a personal perspective, I believe in this 1:40:53.720 --> 1:40:56.680 culture war. But if you were to take my perspective 1:40:56.800 --> 1:40:59.160 out of it, I believe in the culture. 1:40:58.840 --> 1:41:00.759 War because there are young girls being. 1:41:00.560 --> 1:41:02.640 Told they have to take a backseat to boys, and 1:41:02.680 --> 1:41:06.080 the answer is no, never mind that the boy thinks 1:41:06.120 --> 1:41:08.759 they're a girl, and society wants us to buy in 1:41:09.200 --> 1:41:10.240 to this madness. 1:41:10.240 --> 1:41:11.759 I'm not buying into mental illness. 1:41:11.760 --> 1:41:14.840 I'm not buying in to wholesale line where everybody buys 1:41:14.880 --> 1:41:19.960 into the lie. Absolutely not a culture war worth fighting, 1:41:19.960 --> 1:41:23.760 and we have to win. Megan Rappino is angry with 1:41:23.800 --> 1:41:26.960 Sophie Cunningham for saying the most normal thing in the world, 1:41:27.680 --> 1:41:32.960 girl sports are for girls, Angry with Riley Gaines for 1:41:33.080 --> 1:41:37.040 being supportive of girls in girl sports and girls alone 1:41:37.080 --> 1:41:40.000 and fighting for it. And so she goes on this ranch. 1:41:40.040 --> 1:41:43.599 She's looking right into the camera doing a little podcast thing. 1:41:44.479 --> 1:41:47.280 They called it unhinged, and I'm like, no, just wrong, 1:41:48.680 --> 1:41:49.560 maybe unhinged. 1:41:49.840 --> 1:41:50.160 Listen. 1:41:50.720 --> 1:41:53.640 I want to address the controversy that is happening right 1:41:53.680 --> 1:41:56.840 now around trans women in sports. As you know, I've 1:41:56.840 --> 1:41:59.080 talked about this a lot and will continue to keep 1:41:59.120 --> 1:42:02.479 talking about this. I don't know Sophie, so I can 1:42:02.520 --> 1:42:04.960 only project what I see about her beliefs based on 1:42:05.240 --> 1:42:10.080 her actions, and seeing a picture of her with Riley 1:42:10.120 --> 1:42:12.600 Gaines after the game told me everything I need to 1:42:12.640 --> 1:42:15.120 know about what's happening. Riley Gaines has made it her 1:42:15.200 --> 1:42:19.639 life's mission to exclude trans people from public life. She's 1:42:19.760 --> 1:42:23.400 directly tied to the Heritage Foundation, the authors of Project 1:42:23.400 --> 1:42:25.639 twenty twenty five and now twenty twenty six. 1:42:26.240 --> 1:42:32.200 We can stop there. That is nonsense. Project twenty twenty five, 1:42:32.280 --> 1:42:35.719 twenty twenty sex all this stuff was always ridiculous stuff. 1:42:37.040 --> 1:42:41.680 The Heritage Foundation has plenty of problems. Megan Rapino, that 1:42:41.720 --> 1:42:47.519 ain't it, but the exclusion of trans people. She's been 1:42:47.680 --> 1:42:51.799 clear and focused about keeping women only in women's sports. 1:42:51.960 --> 1:42:55.679 This is this is a lie and it gets bigger. 1:42:56.520 --> 1:42:59.200 Who have now published a report that suggests that they 1:42:59.240 --> 1:43:02.280 want to repeat fel Title nine, the very piece of 1:43:02.400 --> 1:43:08.360 legislation that allowed athletes like Sophie and myself to compete 1:43:08.439 --> 1:43:12.479 in sports. Sophie has claimed both to love trans people 1:43:12.600 --> 1:43:14.840 and support Title nine. And this is where I think 1:43:14.880 --> 1:43:18.640 the accountability with having a major platform is extremely important. 1:43:19.080 --> 1:43:21.960 You can hear it even in the language being used, 1:43:22.000 --> 1:43:26.599 that the root of trans exclusion is to protect young 1:43:26.680 --> 1:43:28.040 girls from men. 1:43:28.760 --> 1:43:30.680 To be clear, I would. 1:43:30.400 --> 1:43:32.960 Love to have that conversation and it's much needed in 1:43:33.000 --> 1:43:36.040 this country. But it frames the conversation as if we're 1:43:36.080 --> 1:43:42.200 protecting young girls from men being in WNBA locker rooms 1:43:42.240 --> 1:43:47.120 not happening. It villainizes trans girls as if they're somehow 1:43:47.160 --> 1:43:51.360 magically older than their peers, or are men when in 1:43:51.400 --> 1:43:53.879 reality they are also young girls. 1:43:55.080 --> 1:43:58.360 No, they're not. That's a lie. She's just lying. 1:43:59.479 --> 1:44:05.800 She's lad out lying as clear as can be. Also, 1:44:06.040 --> 1:44:10.000 if men can be in women's sports, here's a Megan Rappino, 1:44:10.520 --> 1:44:13.600 formerly of the US women's soccer team, talking about the 1:44:13.600 --> 1:44:16.439 importance of Title nine, which is about funding women's sports. 1:44:17.040 --> 1:44:19.040 If men can be in women's sports, there's no need 1:44:19.040 --> 1:44:23.879 for Title nine. Don't get angry with me at Riley Gaines. 1:44:25.280 --> 1:44:27.519 She's the one who's actually engaged in a protection of 1:44:27.520 --> 1:44:29.760 Title nine. You're the one who wants to destroy it. 1:44:31.880 --> 1:44:36.840 If Title nine is about women's sports and making sure 1:44:36.880 --> 1:44:39.559 that there's a proper funding, and you want men to 1:44:39.560 --> 1:44:41.559 be in women's sports, there's no need for Title nine 1:44:41.600 --> 1:44:45.000 because there is no women's sports the end. But if 1:44:45.040 --> 1:44:48.840 you believe that men who say they're women are women, 1:44:49.200 --> 1:44:50.400 well then you're just a liar. 1:44:51.120 --> 1:44:52.040 You're just wrong. 1:44:52.600 --> 1:44:55.360 And that's where the culture war is kids, and that's 1:44:55.479 --> 1:45:03.080 what we're fighting. That's it right there is she unhinged? No, 1:45:03.920 --> 1:45:05.280 she's just a liar. 1:45:06.240 --> 1:45:12.200 These laws are excluding kids, kids from playing youth sports. 1:45:12.520 --> 1:45:14.839 If we want to have a conversation around elite sports. 1:45:15.680 --> 1:45:18.760 There are effective policies that have been in place for 1:45:18.840 --> 1:45:23.040 many years that no one noticed because they worked. So 1:45:23.280 --> 1:45:27.360 if anybody is taking these talking points as legit or 1:45:27.400 --> 1:45:31.120 believing they're protecting young girls in sports, I just have 1:45:31.200 --> 1:45:33.160 to ask are you serious? 1:45:34.800 --> 1:45:39.439 Yes, We're all serious. The question is, Megan Rapino, why 1:45:39.439 --> 1:45:43.080 do you hate girls? We're talking about kids in sports? 1:45:43.479 --> 1:45:48.840 So you are in favor of children being mutilated in 1:45:48.960 --> 1:45:52.559 terms of these top surgeries and bottom surgeries. You're in 1:45:52.640 --> 1:45:56.400 favor of confusing children. You're in favor of lying to children. 1:45:56.439 --> 1:46:00.000 You're in favor of chemical castration of children. 1:46:00.040 --> 1:46:01.559 Where does it end for you? 1:46:02.400 --> 1:46:07.280 Are you serious? Can you imagine that that's how she 1:46:07.400 --> 1:46:12.200 actually thinks? It's an intellectual conversation? Are you serious? 1:46:13.280 --> 1:46:17.600 For real? Seriously? I don't know. 1:46:17.640 --> 1:46:20.840 You could add your own in there as well. That's 1:46:20.880 --> 1:46:24.600 not unhinged. Well maybe it's a little unhinged. But she 1:46:24.720 --> 1:46:29.280 is a liar, She is lying, and what she favors 1:46:29.800 --> 1:46:34.800 is downright dangerous. We have to win, they have to 1:46:34.880 --> 1:46:38.840 lose girls. Sports are for girls. This is Tony Katz 1:46:38.880 --> 1:46:43.559 today is putin looking to test NATO US intel reports. 1:46:43.560 --> 1:46:48.960 Say maybe Wall Street Journal with this report Tony Katz. 1:46:49.520 --> 1:46:56.880 Tony Katz today, why would anybody put anything past Vladimir Putin? 1:46:57.760 --> 1:47:01.200 US Intel findes Putin cound test, NATO's resolved with limited incursion. 1:47:02.400 --> 1:47:06.240 I think Russia has bigger issues. They would do this 1:47:06.360 --> 1:47:07.040 to try and. 1:47:08.600 --> 1:47:12.120 Get the US to waste time, money, resources doing this 1:47:12.200 --> 1:47:14.760 on the behest of whom one would assume, China, and 1:47:14.760 --> 1:47:16.759 no one should ever leave that out of their thinking. 1:47:17.680 --> 1:47:20.920 But right now there's a story that Ukraine doesn't have 1:47:20.960 --> 1:47:24.720 any missiles left to fire at Russia. I don't know 1:47:24.720 --> 1:47:27.000 if that's one hundred percent sure. Not again, all these 1:47:27.040 --> 1:47:27.920 stories you never know. 1:47:28.920 --> 1:47:29.439 But with the. 1:47:29.479 --> 1:47:34.120 Ukraine working so well on the drone tech and the 1:47:34.240 --> 1:47:36.840 US working with them now on the drone tech, this 1:47:36.920 --> 1:47:41.040 has been bad stuff for Russia. Russia within a few 1:47:41.120 --> 1:47:46.080 years could engage some of these scenarios. Does Letterer Putin 1:47:46.160 --> 1:47:49.240 have a few more years? There's all This is one 1:47:49.240 --> 1:47:52.280 of those reports where you go, huh, I have questions. 1:47:52.880 --> 1:47:54.639 Find everything at Tony kats dot com. 1:47:54.640 --> 1:47:56.479 I'll catch you Monday.
