And if you brought us a 10 00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 3: victim's name that was inadvertently released, we immediately redacted it. 11 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 3: All members of Congress, as you know, are invited to 12 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 3: visit DOJ to see for yourselves. I want to take 13 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 3: a moment to acknowledge the Epstein survivors who are here today. 14 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 3: I'm a career prosecutor, and despite. 15 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 4: What the ranking member said, I have spent. 16 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: My entire career fighting for victims and I will continue 17 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 3: to do so. I am deeply sorry for what any victim, 18 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 3: any victim, has been through, especially as a result of 19 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 3: that monster. 20 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: Now I think that she truly feels that way. I 21 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: don't think that she's saying it. This is the Attorney General, 22 00:01:54,520 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: Pam BONDI for the sake of saying it, think that 23 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: after this opening statement, everything for her fell apart.

We get it. 48 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: The American left does not care at all at all 49 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: or in any way about what happened to these girls. 50 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: They only care about how they can go after Trump. 51 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: We get it. We see them, and that's what you 52 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: have to be telling. That's the story that you have 53 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: to present. Look at who these people are, not Pam Bondy. 54 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: Pam Bondy can't figure out how to keep enough composure 55 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: to be able to provide the story as is. This 56 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,679 Speaker 1: was Pam Bondy. I forget who asked this question. She's 57 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: asked about how come nobody who is a client of 58 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: Epstein has been indicted? That was the question. 59 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 6: Dao, The DOO right now is over. The Dow is 60 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 6: over fifty thousand dollars. I don't know why you're laughing. 61 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 6: You're a great stock trader. As I hear raskin, The 62 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 6: Dow is over fifty thousand right now. The S and 63 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 6: P hat almost thousand, and the nasdacs smashing records, Americans 64 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 6: four oh one k's and retirement savings are booming. That's 65 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 6: what we should be talking about. We should be talking 66 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 6: about making Americans safe. We should be talking about what 67 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 6: does a DAL have to do with anything? 68 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 1: That's what they just ask. 69 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 3: Are you kidding? 70 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: Hum? Stop thinking that she's good at this. Stop thinking 71 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: that Democrats have any argument that involves actually caring about 72 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: kids who were abused and these adult survivors today, and 73 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,599 Speaker 1: how we find the people who engage in this abuse 74 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:57,680 Speaker 1: and actually get them arrested. It's just out of control. 75 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: If you ask Tony how, how would you describe how 76 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: she sounds? She sounds like a teenage girl who's upset 77 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: she didn't get tickets to see Taylor Swift. Tony, that's sexist. Honestly, 78 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: kiss off, don't care. That's how she sounds. She almost 79 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: said the dow was up over fifty thousand dollars. That 80 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: is someone who is flustered. That is not somebody who 81 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: is in control of any argument. You show up in 82 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 1: front of the House judic share a committee and she 83 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 1: and you're ill prepared. I do not believe that she's 84 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: rightly upset, or maybe said differently. Let's say she is 85 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: rightly upset, what does that matter to me? Handle yourself? 86 00:06:56,320 --> 00:07:01,599 Speaker 1: You're not handling yourself. And it's just a mess. And 87 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: there were moments in the opening, and I'll share the 88 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: opening coming up, where I thought she hit something wrong 89 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: and then she hit something beautifully. It was composed, it 90 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: was focused. It was like, yes, that's the way it works. 91 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: But I don't want this to be all about Pam Bondy. 92 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: You think these Democrats actually care. I don't think these 93 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: democrats care at all or in any way. It is 94 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: how do I attack Trump? How can I more attack Trump? 95 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: Every day? Let us attack Trump. We should be about 96 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: everybody involved in the Epstein files who was actually connected 97 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: to engaging in violence and attacks and being a sexual 98 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: predator towards children. That's it, that's it, That's what we 99 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: should be connected to. That's what we should be focused on, 100 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: regardless of political party, regardless of last name, regardless of status, 101 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: regardless of money. The end, this all Trump all the time. 102 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: Thing says, Democrats don't care about children being abused, And 103 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 1: I want to make sure I'm clear about this. Democrats 104 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: don't give a damn about children being abused. I've said 105 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: this about representative of Cosio Cortez. Trump is president the 106 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: first term. There she is at the border. She's wearing 107 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: all white. She's there by a fence and she's crying. 108 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: The fence is nowhere near the border. You could walk 109 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 1: right around the fence. There were no children in the area. 110 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 1: It was a staged photo op from a staged person. 111 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: The Kami loving Alexandria Casio Cortez. Oh please, you think 112 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: I care what she says about me? Do you have 113 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: any more dresses that you can borrow from people to 114 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: go to met galas where you didn't buy the tickets 115 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: and you were getting influenced and we see you, we 116 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: see you. Did you spend any time fixing your abuela's apartments? 117 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: Just curious, curious if you cared at all about how 118 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: she was dealing with things. Not a fan, not a fan. 119 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: She doesn't care about children. She goes and takes pictures 120 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: when Trump is in office. When Biden's off in office, 121 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: she doesn't take any pictures. So therefore it was a 122 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: photo op. I have said it before, I'll set it again. 123 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: I'll say it now. Alexandria Cassi Cortez does not give 124 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: a damn about black or brown children. She doesn't care. 125 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: She doesn't care now, she never cared before. She isn't 126 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: gonna care in my view in the future. She doesn't 127 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: care what happens to brown children. Alexandria Cassi Cortez doesn't 128 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: care about anything except what kind of play she can 129 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: make for the press to get her a couple more 130 00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: likes and a couple more donations the end. This brings 131 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 1: us to Howard Lutnick, the Commerce Secretary who admitted in 132 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: his testimony yesterday. 133 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 4: That he. 134 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: Visited Jeffrey Epstein on his private islands in twenty twelve. 135 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: Now to understand Howard Lutnick and Canter Fitzgerald, where he 136 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: comes from and the money, and what happened September eleventh 137 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: where his office was murdered but he wasn't there and 138 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: he lived. It's an insane story, but it has to 139 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:45,199 Speaker 1: be understood that Jeffrey Epstein had a lot of connections 140 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: with a lot of people all over the place. After 141 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: Jeffrey Epstein was released from prison in Florida, he was 142 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: there in his New York townhouse at a dinner that 143 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: was attended by If I haven't right in just some 144 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 1: of the names, George Stephanopp. Listen to Chelsea Handler. He 145 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: had friends, he had relationships, He was seen as this 146 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: huge money guy and all this philanthropic effort. It doesn't 147 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: mean that any of those people knew what he was doing. 148 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: Got to keep that in mind. But he was already 149 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: in jail for some really salacious stuff and you were 150 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: still hanging out with him. And that's pretty weird. Howard 151 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: Lutnick made the claim over the years that he didn't 152 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 1: have any personal relationship with him. Lutnick said that he 153 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: had searched his name through the files released by the 154 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: Justice Department, and among the millions of pages found about 155 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: ten emails connecting him with Epstein over a fourteen year period, 156 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 1: and he said, I didn't look through the documents with 157 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: any fair whatsoever because I know my wife knows that 158 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: I've done absolutely nothing wrong in any possible regard. And 159 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: he wrote and he stated, I did not have any 160 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: personal relationship with him. Rob, Sorry, I did not have 161 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: any relationship with him. I barely had anything to do 162 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: with that person. Okay, question mark, Okay, So that's what 163 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: Lutnick said. Senator Van Holland, who I find it terrible 164 00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: from Maryland Senator Appropriations Committee asked if Lutnick would share 165 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: his own personal records related to Epstein, and Lutnick said, yes, 166 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: I would do that. I would absolutely do that. And 167 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: then he was asked by Chris van Holland about this, 168 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: what do you want to call it? This meeting, this 169 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 1: chance encounter, this no, this well arranged meeting on Epstein's islands. 170 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 4: I think you understand the root of concern here. 171 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: It's the way you described. 172 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 7: Very emphatically your first encounter with him in his apartment, 173 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 7: said you were disgusted, would never. 174 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 4: Have any contact with him again. 175 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,599 Speaker 7: Did you in fact make the visit to Jeffrey Epstein's 176 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 7: private island. 177 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 8: I did have lunch with him as I was on 178 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 8: a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife 179 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 8: was with me, as were my four children and nannies. 180 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: I had another couple. 181 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 8: They were there as well with their children, and we 182 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 8: had lunch on the island, that is true, for an hour, 183 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 8: and we left with all of my children, with my 184 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 8: nannies and my wife all together. 185 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 4: We were on family vacation. 186 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 8: We were not a part to suggest, yes, there was 187 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 8: anything untoward about that. 188 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 4: In twenty twelve. 189 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: I don't recall why we did it. 190 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,599 Speaker 4: By visial secretary. 191 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: Again, I want to say for the record that there 192 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: should be no accusation of anything untoared. The issue here 193 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: is you were there. The issue is a timeline issue 194 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: of when you were not engaged with him, claiming you 195 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: were not engaged with him, claiming you didn't have connections 196 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: to him, but on a family vacation you stopped by. 197 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: Now again I brought up Canter Fitzgerald for a reason. 198 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: The money is massive. He was either his yacht or 199 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: they chartered a yacht. He's there with the family. Of 200 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: course there's Nanny's and they docked up and they had 201 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: some conkfornters together. Were you already telling people that you 202 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: didn't want anything to do with him while you stopped by. 203 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: You didn't want to have any public relationship with him, 204 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: but you want to make sure sure he adds some 205 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: connection to him, just in case this Howard Lutnik may 206 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: not like it, but this absolutely goes to a conversation 207 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: of character, and it goes to the kind of thing 208 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: where it is certainly possible and I'm willing to bet 209 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: money probable that you didn't engage in anything that we're 210 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: discussing here, the abuse, the sexual abuse of children. I'm 211 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: willing to say that out loud. I don't think he 212 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: did that in the slightest, But were you telling people 213 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: you had nothing to do with him while you went 214 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: to go see him for lunch? You stopped? There are 215 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: times where we're on a family vacation. My wife won't 216 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 1: let us to pull over to use the bathroom because 217 00:15:54,960 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: she wants to make the extra thirty miles. You stopped 218 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: the yacht. Maybe you had more of a relationship than 219 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 1: you're saying. Certainly, it's an argument that people can make. 220 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: And I have absolutely no idea at this moment if 221 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:22,840 Speaker 1: he is going to survive in the Trump administration. Man, 222 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: is it a bad look, a very bad look, based 223 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: on his own words. I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony 224 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: Katz today. So you might have seen this from boomerasiasin 225 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: I'm assuming producer Landon you did about the jock tax. 226 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: Oh fantastic, And then they ask me why I am 227 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: not a progressive? Well, allow me to explain, Tony Katz. 228 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: Tony Katz today, Good to be here, Good to be 229 00:16:54,040 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: with you. The story is about Sam Donald, the quarterback 230 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: for the Seattle Seahawks, and of course winning the Super Bowl. 231 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: A guy who everybody you know counted out, they gave 232 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: up on, but he didn't give up on him. Actually, 233 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: an incredibly inspirational story is Sam Darnald. And so what 234 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: got noticed is that in California they have what can 235 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: be called the jock tax. And this this jock tax, 236 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: what happens here is is that you get charged taxed 237 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: for playing in a professional sport in that state. So 238 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 1: you play for the New York Jets, ha ha, and 239 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: you play they play the forty nine ers, you're getting 240 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: taxed in California. So the Seahawks and the Patriots were 241 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: taxed in California. It's assessed taxes on players based on 242 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: the number of days they spent playing or practicing or 243 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: practicing in a given jurisdiction. So, according to the collective 244 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: Bargaining Agreement of the NFL, if you win the Super Bowl, 245 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,600 Speaker 1: you get one hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars. If 246 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 1: you lose, you get one hundred and three thousand. So 247 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 1: when you take a look at what happened with the taxes, 248 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: you get a take home pay on the winning side. 249 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 1: Of approximately eighty six thousand, and on the losing side 250 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: you get a take home of forty nine thousand, eight hundred. 251 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: But when you take a look at what happened with 252 00:18:52,920 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: Sam Darnold, what you've come to realize is that because 253 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: of the time he's spent there working there, the entire 254 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: salary involved, he won one hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars, 255 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: but he owes them two hundred and forty nine thousand. 256 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: Now it's a little bit of a manipulation because he 257 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: has a salary and other things, and of course he 258 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: got paid in other ways, but he owes California two 259 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty grand for the pleasure of playing in California. 260 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: I wouldn't play in California. There should be no Super 261 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:38,160 Speaker 1: Bowls in California? Are we all nuts? These democrats really 262 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: love your money. I'm Tony Katz. So this took place 263 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: last night, but the story really broke this morning. A 264 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: very strange story which has since resolved, which has led 265 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: to more of the story being strange. And if you 266 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,960 Speaker 1: follow me on the Twitter ex at Tony Katz, you 267 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 1: will see people saying, yeah, I don't believe any part 268 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: of this at all, Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good 269 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: to be here, good to be with you. And then 270 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: I'll have three more things to get to. But last 271 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: night al Paso, Texas, al Paso International Airport, which is 272 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: I think it was four miles from the border. Maybe 273 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: it's a little bit more. The FAA, the Federal Aviation Administration, 274 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 1: halted all flights in and out of El Paso. Well, 275 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: that's weird. It wasn't some issue with airlines or with 276 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: the computers. No, no, no. The FAA ordered a total halt, 277 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 1: not only two flights and out of the Al Paso Airport, 278 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: but within ten nautical miles of the airport. No commercial flights, 279 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: no cargo flights, no aviation at all, which means no 280 00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: private planes, no training lessons, nothing, no aviation also mean 281 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 1: no drones and the whole thing. As we learn more 282 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: about it. They started by saying it was unspecified security reasons. Okay, well, 283 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:17,479 Speaker 1: now I've got questions. You shut down airspace. What in 284 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: the world has happened? Well, the minds could wander, and 285 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: the mind did wander. Was this some level of terrorist threat? 286 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: Was this about trying to prevent people that maybe a 287 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: crime and maybe preventing people from being able to leave 288 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: the area. Was this terrorist related US? Was this viral 289 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 1: listen where the people just got out of COVID. Were 290 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 1: they trying to keep people from coming in or from 291 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: leaving to keep a spread from happening. It could have 292 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: been nothing, And I was discussing this in my morning, 293 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: So You're like, it could be all these things or nothing. 294 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna speculate. I don't know. We're gonna 295 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: get more information. We then learn less than twenty four 296 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: hours later that the FAA has lifted the flight district restriction. 297 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: The flight restriction it's itself a tfr IS it's called 298 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:23,719 Speaker 1: would have allowed for the takedown of hostile aircraft by 299 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: military force. Well, that's interesting. This is the first shutting 300 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: down of airspace since September eleventh, two thousand and one. 301 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 1: It gets lifted this morning. It got lifted this morning. 302 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: The Trump administration telling Fox News that it came in 303 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: response to Mexican cartel drones that breached US airspace. Thus, 304 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: the f made the move to ground everything. This was 305 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: supposed to last ten days. Mexican cartel drones breached US airspace. 306 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: The Department of War took action to disable the drones. 307 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: So what was happening there? I think it was Fort 308 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: Bliss military was saying, is they could not guarantee commercial 309 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: aircraft safety. They continued. The FAA and the Department of 310 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: War have determined there is no threat to commercial travel. Now, 311 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,719 Speaker 1: if you follow me on Twitter x at Tony Kats, 312 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: I posted about this and you will find you will 313 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: find that the vast majority of people don't believe it 314 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 1: at all. The shutdown went from ten days to basically 315 00:23:52,600 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: twelve hours. This was about Mexican drones. I'm not a 316 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: conspiratorial guy. I'm a guy who is asking a different question. 317 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: You telling me that the cartels can send drones to 318 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: the United States shut down airspace, and our answer is, oh, well, 319 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't like that answer, Guys. I think that answer 320 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: is ridiculous. I think that answer is madness. I think 321 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 1: that answer is weak, and I'm not interested in weak answers. 322 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: I put forth to you that if Mexico can't control 323 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: the cartels, then the actions of the cartels are an 324 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 1: act of war and we should respond accordingly. Oh great, 325 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: there goes Tony. Now he wants to go to war, 326 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: and he wants to send other people's kids into battle. 327 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: I want to push the Mexican border back ten miles 328 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: and create a DMS. Oh I'm sorry, were you not 329 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 1: ready for this conversation? For all the people who like 330 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: to cluck from the back row, now's your chance to engage. 331 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 1: We should accept, as the United States of America that 332 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: we can be disrupted in our travel or we can 333 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: be put into a place of fear because a cartel 334 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: is flying drones around. I think we should have dead 335 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: cartel members by the thousands. I mean, listen, if you 336 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: want to deal drugs in Mexico and sell drugs in 337 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: Mexico and do your thing in Mexico, I don't live 338 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: in Mexico. If that's what they're willing to accept, who 339 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: am I to get in the way. But you want 340 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: to disrupt someone from going to visit their grandpa, I 341 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: think we should kick you directly in the face till 342 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 1: you fall down and die. I don't understand what I 343 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 1: said wrong. How is it possible that my position is wrong. 344 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: I don't think they should be drug dealers. I think 345 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: we should be helpful to Mexico and trying to deal 346 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 1: with the problem. I think we've got a serious problem 347 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,679 Speaker 1: with drugs coming across the border, and I think that 348 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: we've done a good job of working on it. We 349 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: have to continue to do a better job of working 350 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,360 Speaker 1: on it. I think we're absolutely correct to take out 351 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 1: the drug boats coming from Venezuela or anywhere else. You 352 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: bring fentanyl, you should expect to learn how to speak 353 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,120 Speaker 1: with fish, because you're about to sink. This is what 354 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: I believe that we are allowed to protect our nation, 355 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: and we are allowed to say that our kids are 356 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 1: more important than your kids. If you're gonna send drugs 357 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 1: in ways to kill our kids towards our kids, our 358 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 1: kids matter more. But what in the world is this 359 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: with the cartels thinking they can send drones and somehow 360 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 1: Mexico doesn't have to pay the price. Now, someone suggested 361 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,239 Speaker 1: in the chat room, they give up five miles, we 362 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: give up five miles, we get a ten mile gap. 363 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: You fill it with minds and stuff, thinking of a 364 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: DMC like you would have between North Korea and South Korea. 365 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: Me to say it differently, I'm not giving up anything 366 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 1: because I'm not sending drones in to disrupt the air 367 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 1: travel in Mexico. They're allowing it to happen to us 368 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: and I argue it's an act of war. So we 369 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: take the ten miles, just take it, and then we 370 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: raise every house and every apartment building and every farm 371 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 1: and every development, and we make those ten miles uninhabitable 372 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,239 Speaker 1: except for the roads that we patrol to ensure that 373 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: the trade between two great countries can continue. But I'm 374 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 1: not going to give the cartelis a second to breathe. 375 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't give a damn about these people. And I'm 376 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 1: fully aware that they could see this video and decide, okay, 377 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: they're coming after me. But they can decide that about 378 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,919 Speaker 1: anybody anytime. It's ull serve them. I choose us. I 379 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 1: don't understand how anybody couldn't And I don't understand the 380 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: idea of somehow we're just supposed to take this and oh, well, 381 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: that's the way it is. What the hell is that 382 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: that's the way it is. Now, if I was really 383 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: the kind of man I should be, we take fifty miles. 384 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: But oh, I'm a a I'm a softie. We have 385 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: a chat room on the live stream, and someone disagrees 386 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: and thinks it's the stupidest idea ten miles and then 387 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: what another ten miles? If that's what it takes. If 388 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: they don't learn from the first ten miles, if Mexico 389 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: doesn't do something about the drug trade and the cartels 390 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: going after American citizens, and they wrote, why not take 391 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: a thousand miles? Now we're talking. You see, you're more 392 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: of a man than I am. Ten miles? Ten? What 393 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: was I think? If this guy wants take a thousand mile, 394 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 1: that's the way it's done. That's how you do it. 395 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 1: Now we're cooking with gas. I want the madness to stop, 396 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: and I don't want Americans bothered. I want to be 397 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: left alone. I have said this before, and it's kind 398 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: of crude, but it's very, very true. All I want 399 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: to do is eat a steak, smoke cigars, and have 400 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: sex with my wife. And sometimes I'm not in the 401 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: mood for a steak. That's all I want in this world. 402 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: And I have got cartels sending drones into United States 403 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: airspace and prevent people from traveling, so I can't get 404 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: what I want. I find that to be offensive. I 405 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: was promised life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and 406 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm not able to pursue my happiness because I've got 407 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 1: cartel drones coming my way. So I gotta do something 408 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: about the drones, and I offered up a solution. Now 409 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: I ask all the chattering freaks in the back row, 410 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: what's your plan? Take the crap get abused. I think 411 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: that's a ridiculous plan. I think that's a terrible plan. 412 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: I don't think we should go with that plan. My 413 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: plan is proactive, and it forces Mexico to handle their 414 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: own damn business. Somebody tell Claudia to get the job done. 415 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: But if you don't understand how this is a problem 416 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: for all of us in the United States, that Americans 417 00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: do not get abused, that I am indeed a believer 418 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: of packs americanas, that I one thousand percent believe that 419 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: what happens in Alpaso happens in Tulsa, happens in Fargo, 420 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 1: happens in Indianapolis, happens in Boston, happens to all of us. 421 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: That if you allow cartels to do this once, what 422 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: makes you think they won't do it again. I am 423 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: tired of weakness, and I am tired of weak people, 424 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: and I'm tired of weak responses to groups that want 425 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: to do us harm. So let's stop having them do 426 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: us harm. All I'm doing is offering up an idea. 427 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: It's a good one, maybe someone has a better one. 428 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: But taking this from cartels, that's the dumbest idea I 429 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: ever heard. I'm Tony Katz, and this is Tony Katz today. 430 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 1: So I've got three more things. These are stories that 431 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: should be top line stories that probably won't be, or 432 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: at least I find them interesting. Credit card debt is 433 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: now one point two to eight trillion dollars, and that 434 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 1: kids is a problem. One point two eight trillion. Eventually 435 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: people stop paying one point two eight trillion tells us 436 00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: that people don't have the expendable cash that they are 437 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: surviving on credit. This is the ticking time bomb. And 438 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: this is what leads people into this conversation regarding the 439 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: K curve and how you have some people who are 440 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: growing great, right, the rich they're going like this, but 441 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: some people they're really going at the slower pace that 442 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: some people are coming down create this K look. But 443 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: the job's numbers today are unbelievable. They're things that the 444 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: administration can grow about. Costs have come down on a 445 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: great number of subjects, including gas, and we could take 446 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: a look at credit card debt also as a trailing indicator, 447 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 1: meaning people have been doing this, which Trump could easily 448 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: attribute to the Biden administration. But you still have to 449 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 1: deal with the reality that it's one point two eight trillion, 450 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: and if people don't feel that the jobs are there, 451 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: the dollars are there, the economies there, eventually they say 452 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: somebody else's problem. It's a really big number and a 453 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: really bad number, and one that has to be looked at. 454 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: As for the latest on Nancy Guthrie, the missing mother 455 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: of Today's show host Savannah Guthrie, a person was detained yesterday, questioned, 456 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 1: then released. They released those photos yesterday and people were 457 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: agreeing with us. By the way, it does look like 458 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: it's a woman, but then there's a moment that it 459 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: looks like the person in the ski mask has a mustache. 460 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: You're like, what is actually happening here? And then the 461 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: neighbor's house was looked at and searched and swat was 462 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: out there. The neighbors were like, we didn't do anything. 463 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: And then a person was detained and they were like, 464 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: they kept me for two hours before they read me 465 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: my rights. I didn't know what was happening. Again, I 466 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: tell you a lot of these movements could be purposeful, 467 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 1: as if you know, they're not giving us the full 468 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: story and it looks it looks foolish, like the whole 469 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: thing looks awkward, like they don't know what they're doing, 470 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:13,720 Speaker 1: and that could be a way to try and lure 471 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: the kidnappers and do a false sense of security. What 472 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: if it isn't kidnappers. You know, I'm not the first 473 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 1: person to say, and producer Land and I were discussing 474 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: it during the break that you ever see the movie Fargo? 475 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: Is this that is that? 476 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 8: This? 477 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: It's all very very weird. And then there was some 478 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 1: data that shows that if you take a look at 479 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:42,360 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl halftime show, people still upset about the 480 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: whole bad bunny thing gotta move on, but it shows 481 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 1: a dip during the halftime. People did not people tuned 482 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 1: out during the halftime. It was a big crater there. 483 00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: But I do not know if this happens in every 484 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: halftime show. What I do know is that when you 485 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 1: have something like this, you could say, Okay, maybe not 486 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: everybody doug the halftime show and this is someone's grandmother 487 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: watching the halftime. It's unbelievable. 488 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 4: How nice? 489 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 1: Yeahuri Oka saying I mean like, what is this. This 490 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,399 Speaker 1: is ridiculous. I got a man a flag, now he's 491 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:48,919 Speaker 1: on a flag. Yeah, godless, you can get off the save. 492 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 1: Please get off the scene. It's so good. MOR's coming up. 493 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm Tony Kats that
