1 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: Line from vall Hartbiner and the Crossroads of America. It's 2 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: Tony Katz today. I think some people believe. 3 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: That I think President Trump is not capable of handling 4 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 2: the economy. 5 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 3: No, I think he's more than capable of handling these things. 6 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 3: I've seen him do it. 7 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: I think that the push on tariffs is misguided. It's 8 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: okay to say while grown up here Tony Katz, Tony 9 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 2: Katz today, so good to be with. You find everything 10 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 2: at Tony kats dot com. 11 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 3: The numbers go along with things I have been saying. 12 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: We've been saying here that Americans don't think the economy 13 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 2: is great. 14 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 3: I would argue, as I have. 15 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 2: That Americans think that there's more opportunity with Donald Trump 16 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: at the helm. 17 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 3: Than Joe Biden than Kamala Harris. Of this, there is 18 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 3: no doubt. 19 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 2: But you have not seen enough prices go down in 20 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: enough places, and as I have argued, you have not 21 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: heard the argument be made with efficacy, with strength, with 22 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: repeated vision and repeated measure, that we are in the 23 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 2: fight right now and we will get there if we 24 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 2: do X, we do Y, we do Z, and we 25 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 2: need everybody to be on board with this. 26 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 3: Bring people into the fight. 27 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: Make them feel they're a part of it, and you 28 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: will get a better result. Harry Inton is the guy 29 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: who does the numbers over there at CNN, And I 30 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: know what you're gonna say, Tony at CNN, except Harry 31 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: Nton is very good at breaking down the numbers. And 32 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: we've discussed his stuff before. He's solid on it. He 33 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: is very very good at it. This was his take 34 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 2: on the economy. 35 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 4: President Trump is trying to sell the American folks aren't buying, 36 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 4: and we can see it pretty simply. 37 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 3: Here. 38 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 5: Take a look here. 39 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 4: This is consumer sentiment, the current conditions. Consumer sentiment can 40 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 4: be the current conditions or it can be a future expectations. 41 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 4: We're looking at current conditions. And get this. According to 42 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 4: the University of Michigan, we are dealing with the worst ever, 43 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 4: the worst ever view of current conditions, dating all the 44 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 4: way back since nineteen hundred. 45 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 5: And fifty one. 46 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 4: This is record breaking in the way you don't want 47 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 4: to be breaking records. 48 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 5: And get this, Kate. It is down thirty percent. 49 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 4: Consumer sentiment of current conditions down thirty percent from January 50 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 4: when Donald Trump took. 51 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: Now, let me share at least a mistake that Harry 52 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 2: Anton made. Whatever Donald Trump is selling, the American people 53 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 2: aren't buying. I put forth to you, there hasn't been 54 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 2: a sales job, and a sales job is not ooh, 55 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 2: look at this shiny object over here, right, Obamacare was 56 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 2: a sales job. I'm talking about honestly addressing what we're 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 2: trying to get done and why these things will work. 58 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 3: And yes it will take time. 59 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: Now, if you promised prices would get better overnight and 60 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 2: they didn't get better overnight. 61 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 3: Well you have to live with that. But you can 62 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 3: go about engaging honestly with the American people. 63 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: Here's the plan, here's the strategy, here's the work we're doing, 64 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: here's the progress we're seeing, and here is the result 65 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: that we are going to get to. 66 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 3: You can do that if you choose my argument. 67 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: I said this the other day, I have said this 68 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 2: over the last year that Trump and Bes and Darnen 69 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 2: doing enough of this. You have to do a better 70 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 2: job of it, which is you have to do the 71 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: job consistently. If at all, are some things better? Absolutely? 72 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: Is everything better? Absolutely not? And if you want to 73 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: tell me that insurance costs are down, why is it 74 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: that everyone feels that insurance costs her through the roof, 75 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 2: because they don't view insurance in any level of well, 76 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 2: my car insurance is down five point seven percent. 77 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 3: They view it as what was it up over the 78 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:29,679 Speaker 3: last years. 79 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 2: They view it as an overall conversation regarding insurance and 80 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 2: Toto And don't tell us that inflation is down. That 81 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: dog won't hunt. It's right where it's always been. And 82 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: I am not making the argument that that is specifically 83 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: Trump's fault. The tariffs should have sent things all caddiewampus, 84 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 2: and it didn't. Things are still in a better place 85 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 2: than they were under Biden. They're just not great. They're 86 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: still too damn high. And if you can't accept the 87 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: fact that Americans are going to tell you that something 88 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: is too damn high, well then you ain't ready to sit. 89 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: In the big chair. And he is. 90 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,679 Speaker 2: There's no question, there's no debate, there's no doubt. Why 91 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: is the administration not capitalizing on these opportunities. There's a 92 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: mistake being made in my view that instead of selling 93 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: the good and explaining why everything else is. 94 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 3: Coming it is. It's great, you just don't understand. 95 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: You just won't admit it, or you call somebody like 96 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: me a stock Republican Steve Bannon. I'm honestly addressing the situation. 97 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: No lives from this guy, No bueno. 98 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 6: That is significant in something you can't ignore. You shouldn't 99 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 6: ignore you, you shouldn't ignore. 100 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 5: To your pail. 101 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 6: How but they do not feel good about the economy. 102 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 6: How much are they blaming this on President Trump? 103 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it would be one thing that President trum could 104 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 4: ignore it if folks weren't blaming him for it. 105 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 5: But take a look here Trump blamed. 106 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 4: Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions in America. 107 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 3: Look at this. 108 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 5: We're dealing with a super majority here. 109 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 4: We're talking about more than three in five Americans, sixty one. 110 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 5: Percent who say that Trump's policies have. 111 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 4: Worsened economic conditions in America. How about worsened your own finances. Again, 112 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 4: we're dealing with a majority here. Fifty one percent of 113 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 4: Americans say that Trump's policies have. 114 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 5: Worsened your own finances. 115 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 4: This is double trouble for the President of the United States. 116 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: Allow me to say, for the record, I don't buy 117 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 3: the numbers. Tony. 118 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 2: You just said that Trump needs to do more about 119 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: talking about the economy and make certain admissions. 120 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely true. You're gonna tell me. 121 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 2: You're going to tell me that things right now for 122 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 2: the average American are magically worse by magnitude. 123 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,279 Speaker 3: Than during Joe Biden. 124 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 2: Nah, you're gonna tell me that people are gonna respond 125 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: to a poll differently than they did. 126 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: When Joe Biden was allegedly the president. Yeah, I'll believe that. 127 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: I'll believe that in every single way. 128 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: This part of the data, I believe changes. 129 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: If President Trump and his team were more focused on 130 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: sharing a vision and sharing successes. It isn't about lying 131 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: to Americans. I don't agree with this. I don't favor this. Rather, 132 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: it is about sharing the good stories, sharing what. 133 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 3: Has happened, sharing what has been built. 134 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 2: You're hearing I said this on Sean Spicer's show last week. 135 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 2: You're finally hearing the president do this. Four one k's 136 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 2: are up. You know a lot of people have four 137 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: one ks or one k is a up. Do you 138 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 2: really think that the economic condition is worsened? Now, there's 139 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 2: a difference between Wall Street and Midwest main Street, and 140 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: I think you have to address Midwest main Street, which 141 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: is a huge part of this conversation. 142 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 3: But that's just it where is the addressing of it. 143 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: Don't just say, oh, mister President, your policies have done 144 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: great good. 145 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 3: Nobody wants to hear that. 146 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 2: You know, it was President Trump who said, you know, 147 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: the stadium in Washington, the new stadium in Washington for 148 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: the football team, it should be named after me, mister president. 149 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 3: People want to. 150 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 2: Afford braces, and no one gives a good Holy damn 151 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: whether you have a football stadium named after you or not. 152 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 2: I am sorry that nobody on your team is willing 153 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 2: to say those words, but those are the only words 154 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 2: they feel that things aren't working for them. You should 155 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 2: address that you're more capable than this and you're not 156 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 2: doing it, and that drives me nuts. 157 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 3: I am a huge. 158 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: Believer that the man is remarkably, remarkably capable. 159 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 3: Trump can do two things at once. And Trump has 160 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 3: the ability. 161 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 2: Yes, it is true to engage in empathetic voice.

These are the people. 224 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: These are the same people who take a look at 225 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 2: the shutdown and say, well, Democrats are wrong here where 226 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 2: with the Republicans.

I don't 333 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 11: need a lecture from from whether it's Bernie or the 334 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 11: governor in California, because they are representing very deep blue 335 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 11: blue kinds of populations and a lot of those things, 336 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 11: a lot of those things were part of the extreme. 337 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 11: And I'll remember what really needs to win, to win, 338 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 11: the big win is involving my state and other states, 339 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 11: and those things and why have we arrived here after 340 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 11: the election a year ago? We want to forget. We 341 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 11: got to forget some of the things that cost us 342 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 11: that election. Or now for me, it's like that's why 343 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 11: I'm trying to remind people. 344 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 6: That kind of. 345 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 2: Every time you hear him, he sounds like a guy 346 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: you want to hear from. 347 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 3: Now. 348 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 2: He's not a conservative, but he certainly understands what's happening, 349 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 2: and that won't be tolerated by the sunny host in 350 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: progressive left. 351 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 3: This is Tony Kats. 352 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 2: Today, President Trump looking to the Supreme Court saying, Hey, 353 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 2: this situation with the eging Carol, why don't you toss 354 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 2: that verdict? 355 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: Won't you? Tony Katz? Tony Katz today, Great to be 356 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 3: with you. 357 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 2: Ejing Caroll, the writer President Trump was held liable for 358 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 2: sexually abusing her in the mid nineties. This was a 359 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: civil verdict, not criminal. If you ask me, I think 360 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 2: it was a bit of nonsense. When I say a bit, 361 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 2: I mean a lot of bits of nonsense. She won 362 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: eighty eight million dollars in damages. He has turned to 363 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court calls the claims facially implausible, politically motivated allegations. 364 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: So what he is looking is for a reversal of 365 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 2: evidentiary rulings that would then eliminate any claim that she's 366 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 2: actually making. And the petition reads that Egan Carroll quote 367 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 2: waited more than twenty years to falsely accuse Donald Trump, 368 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 2: who she politically opposes, until after he became the forty 369 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: fifth president, which he can maximize the political injury to 370 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 2: him and profit for herself. So I don't know if 371 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court is interested in getting involved. I don't 372 00:20:55,320 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 2: know if they will, but there is there is something 373 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 2: to be said for when the allegation broke open. There's 374 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 2: also something to be said for what do you do 375 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: with people who are so open about their hatred for 376 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 2: the person that they're going after. We've also opened the 377 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: door up to everybody engaging the defamation suit against everyone 378 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 2: everywhere all the time. I mean, I'm surprised that courts 379 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: have the ability to function with all the defamation lawsuits 380 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 2: that go on out there. 381 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 3: Do I think that Egene Carroll is a good actor? 382 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 4: Me? 383 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 3: No, I don't believe that she is. That's my take. 384 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 2: Then we've got everybody's favorite. My gosh, what in the 385 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 2: world is she saying now? And that is Kamala Harris. 386 00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 3: Okay, thank you very much. 387 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 2: Today she is being well, very very Kamala Harris like. 388 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 12: We have so many stars in our party. There are 389 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 12: so many stars, and let's not be afraid of them. 390 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 12: You know, you talk about mom Donnie. I mean, he's 391 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 12: exciting this group of people who otherwise don't think of 392 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 12: themselves as being aligned or a part or even seen 393 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 12: by the system. You just look at the range of 394 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 12: what we have so many Jasmine Crockett, who I just 395 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 12: talked to you recently, I mean, we have so many stars. 396 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 3: Stars. 397 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris believes that Democratic Party is filled with stars. 398 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 12: We have so many stars in our party. There are 399 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 12: so many stars. 400 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 2: It's exactly the line Kamala Harris says after she looked 401 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 2: up at the sky after a night of Lord only 402 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 2: knows what was being drunk. 403 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 3: Hey, look at all the stars. We have so many stars. 404 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 3: Tell me you didn't say this after Homecomings. 405 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 12: We have so many stars in our party. There are 406 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 12: so many stars. 407 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: That's actually a quote of me after my third Grateful 408 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 3: Dead show. It's it is. It is unbelievable. And someone's 409 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 3: going to tell me that she is legitimate as a 410 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:43,360 Speaker 3: candidate for president again. Could we stop? Could we please 411 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 3: please stop? 412 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 6: No? 413 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 2: I think the story today is about ken Burns, the 414 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: documentarian filmmaker, and he has done some beautiful work. I'll 415 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,679 Speaker 2: leave it to others for the sake of this conversation 416 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 2: about whether or not all of his work has been 417 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 2: historically sound. 418 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 3: But the work done in. 419 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 2: Bringing back to life old photos, old clippings, any level 420 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:22,119 Speaker 2: of film impressive and worthwhile. And I do, to a 421 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 2: great level appreciate such things. But this, this is a 422 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 2: defense that ken Burns is making with John Avalon, who 423 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:34,640 Speaker 2: is a noted Trump hater. 424 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 3: About NPR and PBS. 425 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 2: Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and he engages here a lie. Now, 426 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: it was the Bulwark that first put this out, that 427 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 2: first brought this to my attention, And the bulwark are 428 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 2: people who claim to still be conservatives when what they 429 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 2: are is never Trump and never Trump is the most 430 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 2: non conservative position there possibly could be. Never Communist? Yeah, 431 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: never Trump? Well, what if he's running against communists?

Still never Trump? No, these 434 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 2: people are purposefully foolish and have embarrassed themselves, I think greatly. 435 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 3: But they put this out there as if it is 436 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 3: a very important statement that was made by. 437 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 2: Ken Burns, as if it was a truthful statement made 438 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 2: by ken Burns, and it was not important, and it 439 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 2: was not truthful. 440 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 13: This is what ken Burns had to say. It's a 441 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 13: big deal. They killed the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Incredibly 442 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 13: short sighted. It'll hurt mostly rural communities. Maybe that's their intention. 443 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 13: They'll be news deserts. 444 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 8: Nobody will be covering the school board or the city 445 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 8: council meeting. They'll miss not only the children's in primetime programming, 446 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 8: but they'll miss you homeland security stuff, continuing education, classrooms, 447 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 8: of the air warning stuff that comes from the PBS. 448 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 3: See, no, they won't because they have phones. 449 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: I have no idea what ken Burns is saying here, 450 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 2: except I know what he's saying here, and I don't 451 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: think most people picked it up. Those people on the 452 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 2: coast didn't quite pick up what was being said. 453 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 3: There is no news desert that exists. 454 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 2: Right now in the United States of America. If you 455 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 2: have a signal, if you have broadband, you have news 456 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 2: and no public anything, whether it's NBR, PBS has ever 457 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: filled that void. 458 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 3: Well, I wasn't able to. 459 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 2: Get anything from my broadcast station or from my radio stations. 460 00:26:55,240 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 2: Thank goodness, NBR and PBS were there, said no one ever, 461 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: except people who think that NBR and PBS should continue 462 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 2: to get some level of funding. Let's go back and 463 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: listen again and see if you can catch what it 464 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: is that I'm hearing. 465 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 3: It's a big deal. 466 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 8: They killed the the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Incredibly short sighted. 467 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 8: It'll hurt mostly rural communities. Maybe that's their invention. 468 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 3: They'll be news deserts. 469 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 8: Nobody will be covering the school board or the city 470 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 8: council meeting.

We would call them schmucks. What a 501 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 2: gross thing to say, ken Burns. It is clear with 502 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 2: the argument that he's making. These people don't have access 503 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 2: to news. They've never been on Sixth Avenue in New York. 504 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 2: By the way, it's sixth Avenue, not Avenue of the Americas. 505 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 3: Enough with that crap. 506 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 8: Already we've been hit, but we'll recover. I'm worried about 507 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 8: somebody who's coming up right now that has a. 508 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 3: Lot of talent. 509 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 8: It's not going to get a grant to do that. 510 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 8: The American experience has been put consciously on hiatus for 511 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 8: a while. 512 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 3: It will be revitalized. 513 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 8: It's got an incredible back catalog that can help remind 514 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 8: us about what it is. It's not all doom and gloom. 515 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 8: PBS has not been cut. It will take a hit. 516 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 8: It's had to lay off lots of people at a 517 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 8: national level as a kind of protective measure to try 518 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 8: to get leaner as we face. 519 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 2: If PBS is worthy, PBS will get sponsors or they'll 520 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 2: get supporters. Let them compete, Let NPR compete. But no, 521 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 2: these organizations are not necessary. These organizations that get public 522 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: funding and then don't actually report news, who have an 523 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 2: ideological basis. No, because if there's government funding for people 524 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 2: in radio to get high I don't get any government funding. 525 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: I have sponsors. You can get a sponsor. Go get 526 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 2: a sponsor, and maybe the sponsor is some state program, 527 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: and maybe the sponsor is some local dry cleaner. 528 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, but. 529 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 2: The idea that people in the Midwest, in rural America 530 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: are going to have news deserts now. You don't think 531 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 2: they have a phone. Are they still doing math utilizing 532 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 2: their avocus? When they start their car, do they turn 533 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 2: the key or do they crank it up like it's 534 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 2: the old Victrola? 535 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,600 Speaker 3: And oh are they sophisticated enough to have the old victrola? 536 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 3: Good gosh. 537 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 2: I do not know if other people caught that, but 538 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: that was the first thing that hit me. How glaring, 539 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 2: how absolutely hateful and elitist. 540 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 9: This is. 541 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 3: Bless your heart, there, Ken Burns, bless your heart. 542 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 14: I'm Tony katz in me for making a decision. Would 543 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 14: be the first one to criticize me for not taking 544 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 14: action and not looking at data. So I again, I'm 545 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 14: trying to do what's right by way of the marriag 546 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 14: can people and keep people safe. And just to make 547 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 14: one last data point on that, because I get passionate. 548 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 14: When you asked me about the data and what other 549 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 14: people might say about it is we were at. 550 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 3: Four percent, right. 551 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 14: We reduced capacity by four percent as of last Saturday, 552 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 14: we saw the cancelations above four percent, right, So I 553 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 14: didn't I didn't go higher than what the cancelations were. 554 00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 3: I was actually below the cancelations. 555 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 14: The cancelations were even worse than what I had put 556 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 14: into the system. 557 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 2: Secretary Sean Duffie, secret Chary of Transportation, speaking in Wisconsin 558 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,000 Speaker 2: about the flight delays and the government shutdown. 559 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 3: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz. Today. Let's take 560 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 3: it back to the Secretary Duffie. 561 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 14: Enage through this crisis, hopefully get the government open and 562 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 14: hopefully get controllers back in towers and getting in America 563 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 14: back in the skies and plans safely. 564 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 3: So with that, listen, thank you guys for coming out. 565 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. And by the way, we have a 566 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,719 Speaker 3: great airport. This airport is fantastic. 567 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 14: People who come through here, it's like it's so easy 568 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,239 Speaker 14: to get in and out of the airport. Not only that, 569 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 14: like you can get cheese curds inside, which is great. 570 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:05,960 Speaker 14: And then they say, everyone's son. 571 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,040 Speaker 2: Right, listen, we're gonna be all pro Wisconsin. I think 572 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 2: that's adorable, but isn't what I came for, sir. You 573 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 2: be pro Wisconsin cheese, curds and broughts are fantastic. What 574 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 2: isn't fantastic is where we are with this. We're in 575 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 2: a bad. 576 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 3: Spot with. 577 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 2: Time not on our side. If we're talking about gearing 578 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 2: up for Thanksgiving. I don't think it helps to threaten 579 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 2: the air traffic controllers. President Trump saying he's gonna doct 580 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 2: the pay of appsent air traffic controllers. All air traffic 581 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 2: controllers must get back to work now. Anyone who does 582 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 2: it will be substantially docked. He then said he would 583 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,520 Speaker 2: give air traffic controllers who stayed on the job a 584 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars bonus. And then he was on with 585 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 2: lor Ingram on Fox last night and she said where 586 00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: you can get the money from? And he said, I 587 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 2: don't know. I'll get it for in some place. The 588 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: man is a the man is a treat. I do 589 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: not want to tell the people who stepped off the 590 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 2: job because I don't know they needed the money. Don't 591 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 2: scream at them, don't yell at them. I think, just 592 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,280 Speaker 2: like in the economic conversation, how about being there beforehand, 593 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,800 Speaker 2: saying hey, we need you here. I know this shutdown stinks. 594 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 2: I know what Democrats are doing. I think it's disgusting. 595 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 2: I think it's evil. I think it's awful. We need 596 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 2: you right here doing this work, quite literally, saving lives, 597 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,320 Speaker 2: making America work. We need you, we appreciate you. I 598 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 2: don't think they would have been seen as weakness. I 599 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 2: think that would have been leadership and valuable. I'm going 600 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 2: to dock the people who left, and I'm going to 601 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 2: give bonuses to others. 602 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 3: I think that is. 603 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: A recipe for having some air traffic controllers saying, well, 604 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 2: screw this and screw you, I'm gone, goodbye. Let's not 605 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 2: make it tougher. Don't make it tougher. What happens if 606 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: they don't get the government set up and back up 607 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 2: and running Friday and it takes till Monday. Do air 608 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 2: traffic controllers get back in the saddle and everything's working 609 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 2: again by Thanksgiving? 610 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 3: This is no one's answering that question. 611 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:27,360 Speaker 2: I have got serious questions about whether that can happen. 612 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 3: This is Tony Katz today,
