1 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: Live from val Hartbinert and the Crossroads of America. 2 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 2: It's Tony Katz today. I don't think this would surprise 3 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:15,640 Speaker 2: a soul. 4 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 3: For the first time since twenty eighteen, more new voters 5 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 3: nationwide chose to be Republicans than Democrats last year. Again, 6 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 3: I do not think anyone of a rational mind is surprised, 7 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 3: which means the entire audience of CNN is shocked. 8 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,560 Speaker 2: Shocked, I say, to learn about. 9 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 3: This, I would say the audience of MS now is 10 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 3: also surprised. But then you'd have to ask yourself what 11 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 3: audience And if you say to me, MS, you could 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 3: have made that joke reverse about CNN's audience. I totally agree, 13 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good to be with you. 14 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 3: Eight three three Got Tony, eight three three four six 15 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 3: eight eight six six eight three to three. 16 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: Got Tony. That's how you get to be a part 17 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: of the program. This is the New York Times. New 18 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: York Times has this out now. 19 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 3: I want to say to you, for the record, the 20 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: New York Times should no longer be the paper of record. 21 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: It should be the New York Post. President Trump should 22 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: make that move. To the extent that the president makes 23 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 3: that move. We should not consider The New York Times 24 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: a paper of record. 25 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: It's not. 26 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: This is a really failed, ugly institution. But like all 27 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 3: of these things, it doesn't mean that there aren't people 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 3: there who still do the job. I am sure there 29 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: are people there who still do the job. They just 30 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 3: don't have any power. But every now and then they're 31 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 3: able to sneak one through, and certainly they'll sneak something through. 32 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 3: That's actually a warning they're giving to their brethren, fellow Democrats, 33 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 3: to start making things happen. Democrats lost about two point 34 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 3: one million registered voters between twenty twenty four between those 35 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 3: elections in the thirty states along with DC that allow 36 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 3: people to register with the political party. Right, so if 37 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 3: you take a look at the other states where you 38 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 3: don't register with the political party, you just register to vote, 39 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 3: Republicans gain two point four million. So you had a 40 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: loss of two point one for Democrats again to two 41 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 3: point four for Republicans. 42 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: That's a lot. The story continues. 43 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 3: There are still more Democrats registered nationwide than Republicans, partly 44 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 3: because of big blue states like California allow people to 45 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: register by party, while red states like Texas do not. 46 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,839 Speaker 3: But the trajectory is troublesome. The trajectory is troublesome for Democrats, 47 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 3: and there are growing tensions over what to do about it. Well, 48 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,920 Speaker 3: you could start by not scolding people for who they 49 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 3: vote for and telling them that they're racists and they're 50 00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 3: bigots and sexists for not voting for Kamala Harris. Men 51 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 3: didn't want to vote for Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris was 52 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: a terrible choice. Kamala Harris was annoying. Kamala Harris isn't smart, 53 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 3: and the pick of Tim Walls. You could not have 54 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 3: picked anybody more beta, and she's married to Doug em Hooff. 55 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 3: Men were turned off and if you want to call 56 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 3: them sexist, they're going to continue to be turned off. 57 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 3: And for the record, liberal white women Joy Behars of 58 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 3: the world, Sonny hostin, Okay, not white, but we'll just 59 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: go with liberal women. I guess you understand that we 60 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 3: don't care if you call a sexist. You're the people 61 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 3: we're trying to avoid. We can't stand you. You're not strong, 62 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: you're not smart, you're not people that we respect. You're awful. 63 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 3: And if you tell me it's sexist, wait till I 64 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 3: get to come on the show and tell you directly 65 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 3: you're the problem. You're screaming, preening Karen routine makes us 66 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 3: all sick to our stomachs. 67 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: We can't stand you. And when you lose, when you. 68 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 3: Get upset, when you whine, moan, cry, bitch, covech the 69 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 3: whole thing, we laugh our butts off. We think it 70 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 3: is great, and we mock you, and we revel in 71 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 3: your sadness because your sadness is predicated on pseudo intellectual gobbledegook. 72 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 3: It's not based on anything real. It's not We didn't 73 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 3: vote for Kamala Harris because there was no way she 74 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 3: was inspiring. She's not smart, she's not decent. She didn't 75 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 3: have a plan or a philosophy. Is there anything I 76 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: would have done different? Nothing comes to minds. By the way, 77 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 3: thank you Sonny Houstin for that moment hunt and put 78 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 3: Kamala in the trunk. Bravi, Bravo. We were like, yep, 79 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,239 Speaker 3: that's not something we're voting for. But we got lectured 80 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 3: to by you. We got lectured to by Barack Obama 81 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 3: that this is what you do if you're a certain color, 82 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 3: and this is what you do to show that you're 83 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: not a sexist. We don't care if you call a sexist. 84 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 3: Let me take it a step further. Some people are 85 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 3: totally fine with being called sexist because they are. 86 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 4: They are. They are, We should be clear, they are. 87 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 4: And some people are racist. They are, and some people are. 88 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 4: This said, some people are that, and some people are 89 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: the other. 90 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 2: They are. 91 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 3: Move those people to the side. Now take the vast 92 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 3: majority of the rest of normal folk. 93 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: Why do you hate them? Why do you call them names? 94 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 3: Why do you put them in the category with these 95 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 3: other people? And why do you think they would stay? 96 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 3: This is the part that is most remarkable. The left 97 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 3: thought that these people would stay. The hubriss of it all, 98 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 3: the ego of it all. We call you names, morning, noon, 99 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: and night, and then and how dare you leave us? 100 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: Who do you think you are? You belong to us. 101 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 3: We own you, That's the thought of Sonny Hostin and 102 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: Joy Behar and the New York Times. We own your vote, 103 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 3: all your vote belong to us. That's what they believe. 104 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 3: And isn't that exactly how they act when you don't 105 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 3: vote the way they tell you to. 106 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: I have been saying one of my earliest. 107 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 3: Political theories going back to when I started radio, when 108 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 3: I was living in California, out of my bedroom, I 109 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 3: was doing this. 110 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: The leftist progressive hates you for who you are and 111 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: what you believe, but. 112 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 3: Most importantly, they hate you for not thinking like they do. 113 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 2: And you understand why that is right. If not, I'll 114 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 2: walk you through it really quickly. 115 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 3: If you do not think like they do, that means 116 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 3: you have a different thought, If you have a different thought. 117 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 3: They who all belong to the borg, they all belong 118 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 3: to the mind hive. They have one thought, but here 119 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: you come along with a different thought. Now they have 120 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 3: to listen to that different thought. And if somebody listens 121 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 3: to a different thought, they might say that's interesting, and 122 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 3: their mind hive collapses. 123 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 2: To not think like. 124 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 3: They do is to say it puts out a general 125 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,679 Speaker 3: blanket statement, a thesis that someone can have. 126 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: A different thought. 127 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 3: That means that more than one thought can exist, multiple 128 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: thoughts can exist, and that would mean choosing between the thoughts. 129 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 3: The leftists cannot allow this, so the other thought has 130 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 3: to be dehumanized, criminalized, all of these things. 131 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 2: And it's therefore racist and sexist. You see how that works. 132 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 3: It's because the idea of The thought itself is what's 133 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 3: most offensive, because another person's thoughts means that somebody who 134 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 3: I now believe I control the thoughts of has something 135 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 3: else to think about. 136 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 2: Holy. 137 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: If you've never many of you have already been through this, right, 138 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 3: you've gone through it yourself. You've heard me say, You've 139 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 3: heard others engage this conversation, and you well understood it. 140 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: Some people knew to the show. Guys, glad you're here. 141 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. May never have heard it in that connection, 142 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 3: And I'm with you the moment you realize that, the 143 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 3: moment you see it for yourself, you're like son of 144 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 3: a And I'll. 145 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: Make you sit down. It really will, because it's truly horrifying. 146 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 3: Once you realize that's how the progressives work, you all 147 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 3: of a sudden realize that nineteen eighty four and Animal 148 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 3: Farm are really good books. 149 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 2: Because that's it. 150 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 3: That's the control factor at play. So this idea of 151 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 3: voter registration and what we're seeing here, you might say 152 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 3: to me, hey, to aren't we supposed to be talking 153 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: about Russia and Ukraine? Aren't we supposed to talk about this? 154 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: And we will and we will. 155 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 3: I've got a senator Todd Young on the show with 156 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 3: me in a little bit to talk about exactly those things. 157 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 2: But this is a real story, a very very big 158 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 2: story about what happens when people are allowed. 159 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 3: To use their minds, when they finally break the yoke 160 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 3: of this oppressive nonsense of name calling and shaming and 161 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 3: attack and hatred and bigotry and all the rest. Sonny 162 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 3: Hosten doesn't understand that she's a bigot. I don't care 163 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: what Sunny host understands she is, and so is joy 164 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 3: behar When you take a look at what Barack Obama 165 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: said of black men regarding voting for Kamala Harris, who 166 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 3: the hell would want to follow that guy? Reality dictates 167 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: that people are attracted to strength, They are attracted to 168 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 3: what it is that provides them a better life, and 169 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 3: they are not interested in constantly being told that they 170 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 3: are terrible. My father rest his soul, used to discuss 171 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: the fact I'm eighty five, I'm still working, I still 172 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 3: pay my taxes. Maybe at the very least they could 173 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 3: stop calling me a racist, because he did. He ran 174 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 3: his business until he passed away, and now I run 175 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 3: that business. That's right, three radio shows, the TV stuff, 176 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: and I run a credit card processing company. 177 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: Hey, some people golf. 178 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: What am I supposed to say? But that's just it. 179 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 3: There comes a moment of at what moment do I 180 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,720 Speaker 3: get left alone? At what moment am I told, hey, thanks, 181 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 3: good job, great work. At what moment am I allowed 182 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 3: to think for myself and be told I'm not terrible 183 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 3: for simply this reading with somebody else. And for the progressive, 184 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 3: that moment is never and men and women younger and 185 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: at least through gen X. 186 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: I don't know what the heck is up with the boomers. 187 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 3: They said, we're tired of being called these names. Let's 188 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 3: not be called names anymore. The other side, I may 189 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 3: disagree with un stuff, but at least they're not calling 190 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 3: me names. 191 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 2: And so you see what's happening in the voter registrations. 192 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 3: The headline from the New York Times is the Democratic 193 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 3: Party faces a voter registration crisis. Yeah, they certainly do. 194 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: My advice, let's keep it that way. Keep putting out 195 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 3: a good message, keep getting good results, and don't tell 196 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 3: people their bigots for disagreeing with you. My gosh, this 197 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 3: is easier than I thought. I'm Tony Katz, and this 198 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 3: is Tony Katz. 199 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 2: Today. 200 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 3: This is a very very fun statistic.

Betway Insider blog dot betway dot com. 206 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 3: I guess, wait, can you bet on this site or 207 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 3: is it just the site you go to to understand 208 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 3: how you should bet. I'm not sure which it is, 209 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 3: but this is crazy. The NFL teams who have spent 210 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: the most per win. 211 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 2: Okay, that's cool. 212 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: Data that There is a reason people love guys like 213 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 3: Steve Karanaki when they're doing the. 214 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 2: Odds for football. 215 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: He does the NBC right, he does the political stuff, 216 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 3: but they brought him on for football to. 217 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 2: Go through the numbers. People love that stuff. 218 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 3: And I will tell you I couldn't tell you Karnaki's politics. 219 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 3: I think it was numbers are actually pretty good. Actually, 220 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say pretty goud, you'd say rather good. 221 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:05,839 Speaker 2: I think he's great. 222 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 3: I think he is great on NBC Sports going over football. 223 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 3: People love this stuff, digging into the data's odds percentages 224 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 3: they do. 225 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: They absolutely adore it. But this is super amazing. 226 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 3: So they took a look at the thirty two teams 227 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 3: in the NFL and they took a look at the 228 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 3: salary cap and what the teams have actually spent. Betway, 229 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 3: looked at the each team's NFL team salary cap spent 230 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 3: over the last decade and divided this by the total 231 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 3: number of wins the team had in the same period 232 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,040 Speaker 3: in order to see who had spent the most per win. So, 233 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 3: first things first, let's go with the least. Who is 234 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 3: the least per win. It's the Kansas City Chiefs. 235 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: That is accurate. 236 00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: That is correct, it is on a second, let me 237 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 3: just make sure I've got this right. They have a 238 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 3: cap a one point eight billion dollars and they have 239 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 3: spent thirteen point three million. 240 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: Dollars per win. 241 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 3: That's insane, right, that's the economics of football. In case 242 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 3: you're wondering why those Super Bowl ads cost so much, 243 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: there you go. So they are the least, follow by 244 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills and the Philadelphia Eagles. Now, by the way, 245 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: the jump between the Kansasate Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills 246 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 3: from thirteen point three million to seventeen point five million, 247 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 3: So the Bills have had to spend an extra four 248 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 3: and a half million dollars per win. But bring it up, 249 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 3: bring it all the way up to the top ten. 250 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 3: What are the top ten spending on wins? The Denver 251 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 3: Broncos twenty four point five million, the Washington Commanders twenty 252 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 3: five point five million, the Las Vegas Raiders twenty five 253 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 3: point nine million, the Arizona Cardinals at number seven twenty 254 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 3: six point four million, and at Carolina Panthers in number 255 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 3: six twenty seven point two. 256 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 2: Now it just gets stupid. The top five worst teams 257 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: in the league and what they're spending. 258 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 3: Number five the Chicago Bears sixty three wins, thirty million dollars. 259 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: They have a cap spend of one point nine billion, 260 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 3: thirty million dollars. Number four the New York Giants with 261 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 3: fifty eight wins thirty two million, three hundred and fifty 262 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 3: three thousand dollars per win. Understand that that's the New 263 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: York Giants at number four. Thirty two. The Kansas City 264 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 3: Chiefs are thirteen less than half of what the Giants 265 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 3: are paying. Number three the Cleveland Browns at thirty two 266 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 3: point four million, number two, the Jacksonville Jaguars at thirty 267 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 3: two point nine million. 268 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 2: Dollars, which brings us to number one. Who's number one? 269 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 3: Who is number one spending the most four wins based 270 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 3: on the number wins they have they have in the 271 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 3: last decade fifty six wins. Now, I should note that 272 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 3: this includes postseason victories as well, which could skew a 273 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 3: number a little bit when you're talking about the Chiefs, 274 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 3: et cetera. Number one only fifty six wins in ten years. 275 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 3: That's an average of five point six wins per season. That's, 276 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 3: by the way, I think the line is five point 277 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: six wins. That's only five point six more than I have. 278 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 3: Number one paying the most per win in the NFL. 279 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 3: You got your you got. 280 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 2: Your guests, You got your guests, the New York Jets. 281 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 3: Thirty three point eight million dollars per win. I'm gonna 282 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 3: I'm gonna post this over at Tony kats dot com. 283 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: I'm sorry that list is. 284 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 3: I might mentioned your team right because they were in 285 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,640 Speaker 3: the UH after the top ten. 286 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: Unbelievable story there. 287 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 3: Like to do that, to do that math is kind 288 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: of crazy, God surreal. Now, some teams had higher cap 289 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 3: spends then, you know, than than others, some higher than others. 290 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 3: I think it was the Houston Texans one point ninety 291 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 3: one five billion. I think they were the highest up there. 292 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 3: I mean it's pretty giant. Yeah, higher than the Jaguars 293 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 3: even but it's a fantastic list. 294 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 2: You gotta check it out. 295 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: We have a lot to get to, including my interview 296 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: with Senator Todd Young, which I'll share with you next. 297 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 3: This stuff going on with China is very concerning, and 298 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 3: while all eyes are on Russian Ukraine, I'm not saying 299 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 3: they shouldn't be. 300 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 2: They shouldn't be. 301 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 3: You need to keep an eye on what it is 302 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 3: that China is doing, how it is maneuvering in the 303 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 3: South China Sea, how it is maneuvering with the Philippines, 304 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 3: how they are trying to engage a total domination as 305 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 3: a hegemonic power, but really as an aggressor, and how 306 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 3: they're doing it with just sheer, outright violence and intimidation. 307 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 3: What I'm saying is is that the people who have 308 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 3: been saying China is the threat and everything with Russia 309 00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:01,239 Speaker 3: is just nonsense, they have had a point. Russia is 310 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 3: a concern and we would be fools to think otherwise. 311 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 3: But China is making moves under the cover of darkness 312 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 3: and under what communists do, lies and fraud, and we 313 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 3: simply can't have it. And it was interesting that Senator 314 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: Todd Young was there in the Philippines after two Chinese 315 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 3: Coastguard ships collided with each other going after a Filipino ship. 316 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 3: It's a crazy, crazy story, and it is really indicative 317 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 3: of how dangerous the situation is getting and how problematic 318 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 3: it is for Taiwan and the Philippines. 319 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 2: Keep it here. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. 320 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 3: So while all the attention is on Russia and Ukraine, 321 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 3: and I'm not saying it shouldn't be by any stretch, 322 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 3: there has been some weirdness going on with China. 323 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 2: And I had mentioned. 324 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 3: This article in the Wall Street Journal that talks about 325 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 3: China looking forward to reunification with Taiwan, and I said, well, 326 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 3: that's upsetting stuff, because the only way you have reunification 327 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 3: with Taiwan if you're China is if you take Taiwan. 328 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 3: But then you start reading about things going on with 329 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: the Philippines, warships being deployed because Chinese ships collided It 330 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 3: was Senator Todd Young of Indiana who was actually arriving 331 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 3: in the Philippines soon after this took place. The Senator 332 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 3: joined us right now. Todd Young joined us right now, sir, 333 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 3: good to have you with us. You pay attention to 334 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 3: a large amount of the things happening geopolitically. This incident, 335 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 3: I think it was in the Philippine Sea with these 336 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 3: Chinese ships. 337 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: What happened and what does it signal to you? 338 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, thanks for having me on, Tony. This was 339 00:20:55,119 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: really a remarkable event captured as you know, on camera. 340 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: People can check it out online. But what you effectively have, 341 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: and you are correct, in the Philippine Sea, which becomes 342 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: at some point the South China Sea, which a major 343 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 1: transit route for international trade and full of you know, 344 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 1: an abundant stock of fish and just an important natural resource. 345 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,480 Speaker 1: But the Chinese are trying to steal the waterway. I 346 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: mean they have deployed hundreds of what they call are 347 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: fishing vessels, and yes they do fish and steal fish 348 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: far beyond hundreds of miles beyond their territorial waters. But 349 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 1: they also establish a presence, a permanent presence throughout the 350 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: South China Sea and into the Philippine Sea, as do 351 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 1: their Coastguard vessels. Which these aren't teeny dinghies which are 352 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 1: throwing down bowie's and pulling, you know, unfortunate sailors out 353 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: of the drink. These are large, in some cases armed 354 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: vessels that are painted white, as a Coastguard vessel often is, 355 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: and they're patrolling throughout the South China Sea. And the 356 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: overall purpose here is to undermine the rules, rules of navigation, 357 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: rules related to sovereignty and territorial integrity that have benefited 358 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: Americans and really most of the world for generations now 359 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 1: and so to the extent they can establish a presence 360 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: and steal the resources of another country and to have 361 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: those activities not countered by the nation that is is 362 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 1: being violated. In this case, the Philip pens that establishes 363 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 1: a precedent in which China can continue doing these sorts 364 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: of things on other fronts. Ultimately, this will lead to 365 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 1: the taking of strategically important territory, could be Taiwan, could 366 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: could be additional stretches of ocean that the US needs 367 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: to transit in order to trade and sustain our way 368 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 1: of life. So this is this is the ultimate objective of. 369 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,120 Speaker 2: China, and we've heard that. 370 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 3: We've heard that President Trump said China's not taking Taiwan 371 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 3: while I'm president. 372 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 2: That's just not going to happen, which is really setting 373 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 2: the marble. 374 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,239 Speaker 3: President Biden had in ways tried to set that like no, no, 375 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 3: We're going to protect Taiwan. 376 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 2: He had said it more more than once. 377 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 3: Is there a situation that is felt is coming through 378 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 3: these aggressive actions by China that a protection of Taiwan 379 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 3: will be necessary. 380 00:23:59,600 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 381 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: So the Philippines is they're the honor student of our 382 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: allies in terms of dealing with China. They are vigilant, 383 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: they're not letting down Their president Marcos has said, we're 384 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: gonna challenge all these Chinese vessels, which led to the 385 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 1: kinetic event when I was there, led to four Chinese 386 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: sailors falling overboard. China didn't care about their own sailors. 387 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 1: Let them die. It's neither here nor there. But so 388 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: Philippines from an objective standpoint, is very strategically important as 389 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: it relates to a potential seizure of Taiwan. Taiwan, the 390 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 1: Chinese Communist Party says, is part of China and they 391 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: intend to take it. By twenty twenty seven, according to 392 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: our best estimates, and they are preparing for D Day. 393 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: The Philippines is, you know, just miles away from Taiwan. 394 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: It's it's roughly the distance from Luzon in the northern 395 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: part of the Philippines to Taiwan that it is from 396 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: Key West Florida to Cuba. So very close, and should 397 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:18,120 Speaker 1: D Day happen, it's very important that the United States 398 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: is working closely with the Filipinos to resist this kind 399 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 1: of aggression because Philippines anticipates that they may be next, 400 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: and we have established a foothold in the northern Philippines 401 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: to help deter actions. This is this is the piece 402 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: through Strength doctrine that President Trump and I subscribe to. 403 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: And it's really important that we help the Philippines stay 404 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: vigilant so that D Day never comes, so that we 405 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: can continue to source semiconductors from the from Taiwan, which 406 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: is essential to sustaining our modern economy, and so that 407 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: we can prevent the law the jungle from taking over 408 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: as China undermines the global rules based order. 409 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: Talking to Senator Todd Young of Indiana talking about China's aggression, 410 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 3: I move now, I mean, I'm just making sure I'm 411 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 3: respectful of the time. 412 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: I want to get into Russia Ukraine. 413 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 3: I want to get into the meeting that you just 414 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 3: saw take place at the White House with these European leaders, 415 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 3: with President Zelenski, this possibility of a trilateral meeting, although 416 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 3: the Europeans want to be involved. Your take of the 417 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 3: meeting in Anchorage between President Trump and President Putin and 418 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 3: where you think America is in trying to get a 419 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 3: lasting piece to exist between the aggressor Russia and the 420 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 3: victim Ukraine. 421 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: Well, everyone's looking to America, to President Trump in particular, 422 00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 1: to to cut some sort of deal. Ultimately, President Trump 423 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: is moving in a direction that suggests he will not 424 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: accept a horrible deal. He won't accept a bad deal. 425 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: He's going to require Vladimir Putin, hopefully to send back 426 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,719 Speaker 1: the thirty thousand Ukrainian children he has kidnapped. He's going 427 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: to require Vladimir Putin and his Russian military machine to 428 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 1: give up some most, maybe all, of the territory that 429 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: they have seized. He is prepared to do America's part 430 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: and maybe more to make sure that Russia is unable 431 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:47,120 Speaker 1: to invade Ukraine again. After a deal is inked by 432 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: providing some security guarantees working with the Europeans. The Europeans 433 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: are on board President Trump. Frankly, they're looking to him. 434 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 1: President Trump called the French president Emmanuel Macron Emmanuel, and 435 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: mister Macron, who has an independent street, called him mister President. 436 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: That's all you need to know in diplomatics speak to 437 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 1: know that Trump is in charge. I think where this 438 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: thing heads is, I'm going to assume it continues to 439 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: go in a positive direction and trust in President Trump 440 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 1: to drive a very tough bargain. I think he is 441 00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: starting to understand that Putin has been jerking the United 442 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: States around for months, and Putin is a sophisticated KGB 443 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: trained negotiator, and the only thing he understands is strength 444 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: and resolve. And I think that the US is starting 445 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: to push back on many of his demands. 446 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 2: And that's the only way you're going to. 447 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: Get sustainable peace in that part of the world if 448 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: we stay strong here. As President Trump's a strong visit 449 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: the a Ran bombing their nuclear capabilities just weeks ago, 450 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: we forget that serves as a deferrent to other autocrats 451 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: like China's Shi Jinping from seizing territory that isn't theirs, 452 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: and from doing things that undermine in order that benefits Americans. 453 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 3: In the last few seconds I've got with you, President 454 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 3: Trump has been clear he did it. On an interview 455 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 3: on Fox yesterday, Caroline Levitt, the White House Press Secretary, reiterated, 456 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 3: if there is a peacekeeping force in Ukraine, no US 457 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 3: troops on the grounds. But the question is can he 458 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: hold true to that promise? Do you believe that European 459 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 3: nations putting people on the ground to be a peacekeeping 460 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 3: force of any kind? 461 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 2: Is that possible? And can America stay out of that? 462 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: Well, it is possible. What the Europeans most need from 463 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: the United States if they're going to provide the the 464 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: ground troops to man this effort of security assurance. They 465 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 1: need US air assets, They need our aircraft, they need 466 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: our drones, They need some other capabilities that they frankly 467 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: do not have. There is a precedent to this sort 468 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 1: of mission. It would be the Bosnian mission, the Kosovo 469 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: mission in the nineteen nineties, long time ago. But I 470 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: happen to have been in the military at the time. 471 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: My unit provided some support activity in that effort. We 472 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: need to stay disciplined. The rules of engagement would have 473 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: to be clear, and we would have to think through 474 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 1: the contingency. If we're allowing manned aircraft to fly the 475 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: skies of Ukraine, that one of those aircraft is shot down, 476 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: that would create a sort of quasi ground dimension to 477 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: the conflict. I know that President Trump will be thinking 478 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: through that contingency. We will see more in the weeks 479 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: and months ahead. 480 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 3: Senator Todd Young of Indiana, I appreciate you taking the 481 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 3: time to be with us more to get to this 482 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 3: is Tony Kats today. 483 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 2: So Texas is going to vote on their map. 484 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 3: Good let them remember none of this should be a 485 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 3: story for anybody else outside of Texas. Tony Katz, Tony 486 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 3: Katz today is so good to be with You find 487 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 3: everything at tonycats dot com. 488 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 2: I wish that you would. 489 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: It should not be a conversation for anybody outside of Texas. 490 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 3: This whole idea of redistricting. Nope, no one should care. 491 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 3: I certainly didn't. Texas wants to have a mid decade redistricting. 492 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 3: All right, knock yourself out, have a nice day. It's 493 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 3: it's not my concern. You know what My concern is 494 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 3: where do I get more brisket. That's my whole concern, 495 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 3: this is my focus. But all of a sudden, Democrats 496 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 3: decided that they had to run away to stop this 497 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 3: from happening, a mid decade redistricting, which is completely within 498 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 3: the law, completely within the law. 499 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 2: There is not a violation going on anywhere. 500 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 3: So instead of just maybe complaining about it and realizing 501 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 3: that you're gonna have to vote on this and Democrats 502 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 3: don't have the advantage in Texas and you're gonna lose 503 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: this round, instead of trying to convince people, persuade people, 504 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 3: go out there and campaign, they run away to Illinois. 505 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 3: We know the rest. You've got JB. Pritzker, the governor 506 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 3: of Illinois. They are the kings and queens of Jerry 507 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 3: Manderin supporting them. You've got the governor New York supporting them. 508 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:45,720 Speaker 3: And then you get Governor Newsom, who's trying to play 509 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 3: the part of Donald Trump. It's adorable. You get him 510 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 3: out there saying that we're going to change the whole map, 511 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 3: but we're going to take five Republican seats because of 512 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 3: what Texas is doing. And my argument has been that 513 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 3: if you don't like what Texas is doing okay, But 514 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 3: the only people who get to say in what Texas 515 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,600 Speaker 3: is doing are Texans. They could decide to vote out 516 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 3: their state legislature. No, California, Gavin Newsom is going to 517 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 3: do this. If it's wrong for Trump to introduce this idea, 518 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 3: isn't it wrong for Gavin Newsom to try and rally 519 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 3: Democrats around the country to changing their congressional maps and 520 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 3: keeping Republicans out of seats. If it's wrong, it's wrong. 521 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 3: And what Democrats have said is none of this is fine. 522 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 2: We do it. It's protecting democracy. They do it. It's 523 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 2: destroying democracy. 524 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 3: I swear to you this is what they said. You 525 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 3: have the democratic mouthpiece herself, Chasmine Crockett, the congresswoman from Texas, 526 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 3: quite literally. 527 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 2: Saying these words. 528 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 3: And this is why I now say that we should 529 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 3: be engaged in this in Republican states across the country, 530 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 3: including my Indiana, which has turned into this weird ground 531 00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 3: zero on the subject. But of course there should be 532 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 3: a special session of the legislature and they should engage redistricting. 533 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 3: You got to take a look at the maps. You 534 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 3: got to make sure that the other districts are winnable. 535 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 3: You gotta do the whole thing, don't get me wrong. 536 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,800 Speaker 3: And some states this might work great. In some states 537 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 3: it might be a big giant problem. But you have 538 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 3: to have the conversation. Look at what the Democrats are 539 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 3: going to do engaged in retribution. It's all politics, right, 540 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,400 Speaker 3: And you can say, the politics think this is terrible 541 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 3: and we're. 542 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 2: Better than this. No, no, no, no, the politics think 543 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 2: they're terrible. 544 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 3: And if you do not fight the way they fight, 545 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 3: they will win and you will lose. Thank goodness, you'll 546 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 3: have your principles, conservative principles. 547 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 2: I have been able to keep all through Trump. 548 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 3: Not a question on my conservatism, not a question on 549 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 3: the idea of where I think government should be involved 550 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 3: and not involved, like when we talk about this idea 551 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,520 Speaker 3: of buying a stake in Intel. Absolutely not. The White 552 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 3: House account on TikTok tuk shouldn't be allowed in the US. 553 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 3: This is a political process redistricting. And what the Democrats 554 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 3: have said is because of what Texas has done, they 555 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 3: think they should change the whole map. And my answer 556 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 3: is fight the fire with the fire. And for the 557 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 3: people who voted for Trump saying we want a fighter. 558 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 3: And now all of a sudden you don't. 559 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:17,359 Speaker 2: Want to fight. 560 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 3: Can I ask what you thought was going to happen? 561 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 3: We had enough of just the words. We could have 562 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 3: stuck with Bill Crystal and. 563 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 2: Had all the words. This is the fight, and I. 564 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 3: Think it does come down to this, and in Texas 565 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 3: they're going to get this vote going. 566 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 2: I hope it happens. 567 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 3: And I think every Republican seat looking at what California 568 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 3: is doing in terms of retribution, has to engage and 569 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 3: to not even have the discussion total madness. And they 570 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,280 Speaker 3: were never in the fight to begin with. Find everything 571 00:35:52,280 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 3: at Tony Katz dot com.
