00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 2: but at least with Japan, I mean ten percent with Japan.

Speaker 2: the Twitter X, on the Twitter x at Tony Katz

12
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 2: as well. Uh, this is a trade deal, but it's

13
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: more than just about trade. This is much more than that.

14
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 2: This is a story about power and about dealing with.

15
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,919
Speaker 3: The hegemony of China.

16
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 2: And now we're gonna get more into this because there's

17
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: a lot here and it's.

18
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 3: Gonna take more than a day.

19
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 2: We're talking about how does one have control over navigable waters.

20
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 2: We're talking about how one deals with our friends here,

21
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: there and everywhere. This story is a large scale one,

22
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: but nine and forty two billion of the shutdown, and

23
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: as we have seen, Republicans are united in saying, these

24
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,680
Speaker 2: Democrats won't vote for a continuing resolution, and look at

25
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: how absolutely callous they are about everything.

26
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 4: That thing sitting at the desk that funds of government

27
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 4: doesn't have a single new Republican policy in it, it

28
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 4: doesn't have a single partisan policy writer. It simply extends

29
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: current government funding. But Democrats have said no to that

30
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 4: now twelve times.

31
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 5: We offered them a chance to continue the.

32
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 4: Bipartisan appropriations process, starting with the Defense Appropriations Bill, a

33
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 4: bill that passed out of the committee by a big

34
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 4: bipartisan vote of twenty six to three, but Democrats said

35
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 4: no to that too, they didn't want.

36
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 2: To lose leverage in the shutdown.

37
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 6: Then last week we offered up a bill to pay

38
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 6: any federal employee who is working during the shutdown, including

39
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 6: everybody here, and once again Democrats said.

40
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 4: No, mister President, I don't know what Democrats are holding

41
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 4: out for.

42
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: Do Democrats think that.

43
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 4: We're suddenly going to vote for their partisans r which,

44
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 4: by the way, would spend an additional one and a

45
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 4: half trillion dollars to keep the government open until the

46
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 4: end of this week.

47
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: That's our alternative. He's got a point.

48
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: What of the Democrats put up accept things that simply

49
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: are untenable. They are just not things that are going

50
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: to be accepted from the word go, would you sign

51
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 2: a continuing resolution that lasts for a week. What's weird

52
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 2: is based on where we are right now. Democrats voted

53
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 2: for the continuing resolution. We'd be funded through November twenty first,

54
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: we'd have three weeks before we were doing all of

55
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: this again, it's maddening. I have stated many times before

56
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 2: that I don't think anybody is paying attention to what

57
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 2: is the word I'm looking for? This shutdown, That's the

58
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 2: word I'm looking for. I don't think anybody's paying attention

59
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:37,279
Speaker 2: to the shutdown at all. I don't think it mattered

60
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: to anybody in the slightest. That was until people really

61
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 2: started not getting paid. And right now we are at

62
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 2: the place where people are not getting paid, and this

63
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 2: is where the.

64
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 3: Increases, this is where you see.

65
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: The push from I would argue both sides. Democrats, however,

66
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: don't seem to have anything they can really connect with.

67
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 3: Nothing is landing when it comes to.

68
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 2: Their methodology, their philosophy, nothing is hitting well.

69
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 3: With Americans.

70
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 2: Republicans are able to push back on a myriad of subjects,

71
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 2: including this. It was Sean Duffy once again, Transportation Secretary saying.

72
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 3: Hey, you know, right now, air.

73
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,919
Speaker 2: Traffic controllers are getting screwed with their pants on.

74
00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 3: It's kind of what he's saying.

75
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 7: Airport for remarks from Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy, who is

76
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 7: speaking on how the ongoing government shutdown is affecting travel

77
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 7: and air traffic controllers. This is live coverage here on

78
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 7: Sea Spend three.

79
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 3: Gotta love Sea Span.

80
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 8: But they're the many women who work in her towers

81
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 8: to make sure there are fights.

82
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 9: From time, there are flights from delay, and your flights

83
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 9: are safe.

84
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 8: So I wanted to have a chance to see a

85
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 8: few of the many women who arguing pay today, the

86
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 8: many women who rely on paychecks in the federal government

87
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 8: to support their families, to pay their car payments, to

88
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 8: pay their rents, to pay for gas in their vehicles, to.

89
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 5: Get into work, put food and puts food.

90
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: On the table. Yes, they had a controller.

91
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,080
Speaker 9: Who talked to me about his nine year old ten

92
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 9: year old daughter who made the traveling volleyball team. And

93
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 9: I've been to the so it's honor when your child

94
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 9: makes the traveling team, but with that comes a call

95
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 9: you have to pay to be part of that sea.

96
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 9: And he had to talk to his nine year old

97
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 9: daughter about her not being able to join that team

98
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 9: because he had to preserve and reserve his money because

99
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 9: he thought that this day would come the fact that

100
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 9: he wasn't going to get paid for his work as

101
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 9: an air traffic controller.

102
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 2: So even with a little bit of microphone issues there,

103
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,680
Speaker 2: that's a story from Sean Duffy that's going to connect

104
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 2: and Democrats don't have this story. Air traffic controller can't

105
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: allow his daughter to join the travel volleyball team because

106
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: shutdown doesn't have the money. Now, I think a lot

107
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 2: of people can ask the question and you tell me

108
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: you have no reserves, you tell me you really live

109
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: paycheck to paycheck, allow me for a moment, A not

110
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: the subject, and B yes, I'm not saying I agree

111
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 2: with that. I'm not saying there isn't a massive issue

112
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 2: involved here, but lots of people do indeed live paycheck

113
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 2: to paycheck. It is very relatable and it is all

114
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 2: the Democrats, all of them, because they're the ones who

115
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 2: are keeping this from happening. They're the ones doing it.

116
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 3: Now.

117
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,200
Speaker 2: Is there a way? Is there a place? Is there

118
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 2: a possibility of the Democrats turning this around.

119
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 3: I'm going to put forward a theory here.

120
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: Are you ready? Nope, there's no turning this around. The

121
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: only way they turn this around is if Republicans cave

122
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 2: and Trump has a meeting and agrees to extend the

123
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 2: Obamacare subsidies.

124
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: Why would they do such a thing.

125
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 2: Well, they would do such a thing because they don't

126
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: want to nuke the Buster, which is what Democrats desperately

127
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: want them to do, so they can have that opportunity

128
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: if and when they ever get power again. And I

129
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 2: only hope it's if, but not actually a win. It

130
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 2: is a rare moment where the Republicans are able to

131
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 2: utilize Democrat tactics against them. Look at these people.

132
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 3: Who can't afford this.

133
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: Look at these people who have to sacrifice because they're

134
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 2: protecting their families, the Look at what you're doing to them.

135
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 2: Look at what Chuck Schumer's doing to them. Look at

136
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 2: the right, well it would be Chuck Schumer. Look at

137
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 2: what Mike Johnson's doing. Look at what John Thunho's doing.

138
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: Look at what these evil Republicans are doing. Republicans are

139
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: now doing that to Democrats, and it's got to be

140
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: weird for them.

141
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 3: Yet they're Democrats.

142
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: If they can do anything, they know how to say

143
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 2: screw it and screw you, which is what they're doing.

144
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 2: So the shutdown continues. But this is not even the

145
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 2: biggest story of the day. The biggest story of the

146
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 2: day is that everything you knew to be true about

147
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: Joe Biden not running this country is true in every

148
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 2: single way. Keep it here. I'm Tony Katz and this

Speaker 2: of how we voted. Understand Joe Biden, and we should

158
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: be clear about this. You failed us in every possible way.

159
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 2: You lied to us four years. You screamed about needing

160
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 2: a legislation, give me the tools, you said, it was

161
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: all a lie. You were just not willing because you

162
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:17,679
Speaker 2: believed more in your power and satisfying some DC brethren.

163
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,439
Speaker 3: Then you did care.

164
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 2: About the men and women who live in America, the

165
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 2: boys and girls who play in America, dying a fentanyl

166
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: You didn't give a damn.

167
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: You didn't care.

168
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 2: You were like drugs. What's problem with drugs? Hunter seems

169
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,520
Speaker 2: to like them? No, no, no, you deserve every bit

170
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:41,079
Speaker 2: of derision you get, and I am only getting warmed up.

171
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 2: You talk to us about the dark days. You told

172
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 2: us that inflation was transitory. You told us the economy

173
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: was great. You gave us the Inflation Reduction Act. You

174
00:11:54,600 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 2: increased and exacerbated the inflation issue. I agree, man, and

175
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: I'm not a fan of tariffs at all or in

176
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: any way, but Trump is at least selling some things

177
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 2: out there, being the greatest salesman we've got For Boeing.

178
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 2: I don't even know Boeing. Dang well deserves it. It's

179
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 2: not like they can get us into space. You want

180
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: to talk about the disaster that is the seven thirty

181
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 2: seven Max. Please, please, please, please please. This is ugly

182
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 2: just from a pr standpoint. If you want to argue

183
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 2: that all the issues aren't specifically the cause of coming

184
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 2: from boeing itself. The dark days, every day your administration

185
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 2: told us through your proxies that we are terrible racists.

186
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 2: And now we're doing a way with the DEI bigots

187
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 2: who'd like to scream that at us from their positions

188
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: of power, taking away their positions, and now they can

189
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 2: scream all they want. They just have no power over us.

190
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 2: And we could turn off the mic, actually turned down

191
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 2: the speakers, they could still have a mic. The dark days.

192
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 2: I will put forth to you that the nation has

193
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 2: work ahead of it. And I will put forth to you,

194
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: Joe Biden, right in front of your absolutely terrible life

195
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: and your terrible children, you brought this upon us, not solely.

196
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 2: You had help great number of people brought upon the

197
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,360
Speaker 2: work that we now have to sift through. But don't

198
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 2: think that somehow you were above it all, or that

199
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 2: your name brought any greatness to our nation. Your name

200
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: did not inspire Joe. No one thinks of the name Biden,

201
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 2: and they say, ah, those were the days. You know

202
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 2: what they think of when they hear the name Biden,

203
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 2: This one big sniff, whether it's you or your son.

204
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: And when they think the name Joe Biden. They don't

205
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,000
Speaker 2: think doctor Joe Biden. They think, my god, how power

206
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 2: hungry was this woman to know that her husband was

207
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 2: absolutely mentally incapable of running the country and kept him there. Anyway,

208
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 2: Your wife isn't some blessing to education. She's a hater

209
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 2: of her nation. What do we think, Joe Biden, of

210
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 2: these dark days? We've got work ahead of us, but

211
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 2: you didn't help make it any easier.

212
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:41,880
Speaker 3: You made it worse.

213
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 2: Let that be your legacy, and let it also be

214
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: said that it is very very clear, as the report

215
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 2: shows from House Republicans that indeed the utilization of the

216
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:07,600
Speaker 2: auto pen happening constantly and consistently. You could argue that

217
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: this is showing, well, this doesn't have any concrete information.

218
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 2: I think it offers up the need for a concrete investigation.

219
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 3: And near A Tandon and the rest this cabal that.

220
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 2: Was running the country instead of Joe Biden, they need

221
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: to be investigated. And Biden may at any time say

222
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 2: I was aware of what was going.

223
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 3: On with the country.

224
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 2: I was the run running the show, and any claim

225
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,800
Speaker 2: to the otherwise is ridiculous and false. Those are the

226
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 2: exact words he used exact words he used. Democrats on

227
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: the House Oversight Committee denounced the probe as a distraction

228
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 2: and a waste of time, and this is why Republicans

229
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 2: should triple down on it, give it all the funding

230
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: it needs, and look into who was running the country

231
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 2: when Joe Biden clearly wasn't. Because Joe Biden clearly wasn't.

232
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 2: He wasn't running the country. This much is obvious. He

233
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 2: was not capable and he was not able. The one

234
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 2: hundred page report, according to the Speaker Mike Johnson, saying

235
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 2: that it could have major implications for the legality of

236
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: Joe Biden's actions, so much so that the Speaker said

237
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: that everything that Joe Biden did with the autopen is

238
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 2: that not playing or just not for me? Ah, that

239
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 2: stinks right there, because it is playing. I'll fix it.

240
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 2: The House also continues, right, says Speaker Johnson. The House

241
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 2: also continues to carry out its essential oversight duties. And

242
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 2: you'll be reporting on this all day. But the Oversight

243
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 2: Chairman James Comer, released a blockbuster report now on the

244
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 2: Biden Autopen presidency. And this report includes forty seven hours

245
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 2: worth of transcripts and testimony revealing that every executive action

246
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 2: signed by the Auto pen without written authorization from President

247
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 2: Biden should be voided. This is an unprecedented situation in

248
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 2: American politics and government.

249
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 3: The actions of President.

250
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 2: Biden simply were not all his own actions, and there

251
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 2: are major implications that, including all pardons that he signed.

252
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 2: But don't get me started. He literally said, but don't

253
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 2: get me started. It doesn't matter to me how Democrats scream.

254
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 2: They scream about everything they believe that they're decent and

255
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,199
Speaker 2: everything that you are looking at it somehow, Why are

256
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: you looking at that? Democrats say, look what you've just done.

257
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 2: And when you say, hey, what about this, they say,

258
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 2: why you always look at me?

259
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 3: Why are you so obsessed with Nate?

260
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: You have to start with the understanding that you can't

261
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 2: pay them any mind. You can't worry about whether the

262
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: Democratic Party is happy or not.

263
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 3: You can't worry about whether.

264
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 2: A Democrat Democrat is caterwauling or screaming or crying or moaning, cavetching,

265
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 2: whatever it is. Do you.

266
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 3: When you sit.

267
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: Alone with your thoughts the end of the day, when

268
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 2: you tucked in your kids and you kissed your spouse

269
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 2: good night, and it's just you and your mind. Do

270
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 2: you believe that Joe Biden was running the country for

271
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 2: the last year of the presidency? Do you believe that

272
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 2: Joe Biden was running the country from the time you

273
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 2: saw him debate Donald Trump to when Donald Trump was

274
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 2: inaugurated on January twentieth And if the answer is yes,

275
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 2: I can't help you. If the answer is honest, then

276
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 2: you should be in favor of investigations into who was

277
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: running the country and who needs to go to jail.

278
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 3: It is that simple. This is Tony Katz today.

279
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 2: So what is the story of this couple that like,

280
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 2: went to a restaurant, had sex in the restaurant, then

281
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:51,679
Speaker 2: robbed the restaurant. I think that most people listen to

282
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 2: that story and said, huh, that's uh, that's not I

283
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 2: don't know that that's it's not dining dash.

284
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 3: I don't know.

285
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 2: I don't know what to call that. But that needs

286
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: a name. Sex in the restaurant than rob the restaurant.

287
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 2: That needs a name for sure. Tony Katz, Tony Katz Today,

288

Speaker 2: Good to be with you. Find everything I do over

289

Speaker 2: at Tony kats dot com. Allow me to share the

290
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 2: story of Barry Weiss as we discussed part of this yesterday.

291
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 2: It keeps growing, does this story? The story keeps growing

292
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 2: because the move is on to remake sixty Minutes, to

293
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: remake CBS News. And she's looking to hire. Is Barry Weiss.

294
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: That's her name, Barry Weiss, looking to hire Brettbaar and

295
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,119
Speaker 2: Scott Jennings Brettbear Fox News, Scott Jennings at CNN. You

296
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: know the story of Barry Weiss. She was reported the

297
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 2: New York Times, The New York Times engaged in ideological trafficking.

298
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 2: That is my term. I have never heard anybody say

299
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 2: that but me, But that's exactly what it is they do.

300
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,479
Speaker 2: It would much more than just engaging in a narrative.

301
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 2: It's trafficking. They traffic ideologies and it should be treated

302
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 2: like anybody who does drug trafficking or human trafficking or

303
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 2: anything else. It is absolutely abusive stuff and that's what

304
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 2: these so called reporters do.

305
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 3: She saw this and said, I don't want to be

306
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 3: any part of this.

307
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:40,479
Speaker 2: She actually employed a concept that David Mammott pushed forward

308
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 2: when he wrote the book The Secret Knowledge, where it's

309
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 2: this idea of progressives believe.

310
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,720
Speaker 3: They know something and you can't know it, but they

311
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 3: know it.

312
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 2: What they could do is spoon feed it to you

313
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 2: a little bit at the time and then pat you

314
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 2: on the head. But I'll never be able to fully understand.

315
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: Only they can understand it. She started the Free Press.

316
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,439
Speaker 2: People were very interested in actual reporting. The success so

317
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 2: great that she sold to Paramount Skydounce, which purchased a

318
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 2: paramount for one hundred and fifty million dollars, and now

319
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 2: she runs CBS News. John Dickerson is leaving one of

320
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 2: the anchors there. John Dickerson is leaving some people and

321
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 2: on the left store upset about this.

322
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,679
Speaker 3: That's how I know this is all good.

323
00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if I would consider John Dickerson the

324
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 2: worst offender on the idea of ideological trafficking. But if

325
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: you want to leave as opposed to fight for your

326
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 2: job because there is a new sheriff in town who

327
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 2: has a different standard, one that is actually based on journalism.

328
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 2: Now note it's not based on conservatism, because she's not

329
00:22:54,320 --> 00:23:00,160
Speaker 2: a conservative. Barry Weiss isn't a conservative. Barry Weiss's He's

330
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,959
Speaker 2: never been a conservative. Barry Weiss is never going to

331
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 2: be a conservative as far as I know. But she

332
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 2: is looking to make changes and one of the places

333
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 2: she's looking as the head of CBS News, she is

334
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:23,640
Speaker 2: the news editor in chief, is sixty minutes. She might

335
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: very well remove some of the Leslie Stall types out

336
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 2: of sixty minutes, removing Bill Whittaker, removing Scott Pelly and

337
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: replacing them with people who are not trafficking ideology but

338
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 2: actually engaged in journalism.

339
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 3: What's wrong with that?

340
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 2: By the way, Scott Pelly is sixty eight, Matt Whittaker

341
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 2: is seventy four. Maybe there's a reason one should bring

342
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:58,479
Speaker 2: in new people.

343
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 3: It's a visual medium.

344
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 2: Maybe younger would be better, fifty sixties at least. And

345
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 2: remember Barry White is forty one. It's Verry forty one.

346
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 2: Different view of the the of the world, for sure,

347
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,080
Speaker 2: different view of how people view things, for sure.

348
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 3: The left is infuriated by this.

349
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:27,359
Speaker 2: And once again allow me to tell you when the

350
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 2: left is infuriated, good because they don't believe what we believe.

351
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 2: We just said that Barry weiss Wiss is not a conservative,

352
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 2: and you know what we said. I'm a conservative. I've

353
00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 2: never been to really anything. But even before I understood

354
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,280
Speaker 2: what I was, as I started to understand the things

355
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: that moved me, I understood that I was a conservative,

356
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 2: not a Republican. I wasn't a libertarian. I thought, you know,

357
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,199
Speaker 2: I leaned that way for a while, said no, no, no, no,

358
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 2: there are some things here that are really truly difference makers.

359
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 2: When populism came, came a call and came a knock,

360
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 2: and I said, I'm not a populist. I don't want

361
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 2: to be angry with these people. I'm gonna need some

362
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 2: of these people. I just don't agree with a great

363
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:23,360
Speaker 2: number of things. So I am what I am, and

364
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: I say about Barry Weis's leading CBS News good because

365
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 2: we are interested in news. We're interested in the truth.

366
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 2: We're interested in the stories and being able to rely

367
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 2: on the data presented to us. So we can then

368
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 2: utilize that and say, okay, here's what they said about this. Now,

369
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 2: why does that compare to this? How does this add

370
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 2: to this? What about this story over here? We do

371
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 2: not want to be fed a line of nonsense and

372
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: we never get to what the story is. It's imperative

373
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 2: that we have people who are not engaged in idologically trafficking.

374
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,920
Speaker 3: We say good to Barry Weiss.

375
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 2: The left says, how dare Barry Weiss and that's the difference.

376
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,560
Speaker 2: They're not opposed to the truth being told. Wait, I

377
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: take that back. They're opposed to.

378
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 3: The truth being told. We're not.

379
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 2: So they oppose Barry Weiss and we don't. There is

380
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 2: a difference. Stop telling me about the uniparty and all

381
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 2: that crap. They are way too way too many people

382
00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: who are way too close.

383
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 3: In all those ways. But it is not a uniparty,

384
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 3: no doubt.

385
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,959
Speaker 2: Tony there in the chat says she is majorly pro Israel.

386
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 2: Maybe that's why the Democrats and others don't like her.

387
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,239
Speaker 3: Maybe that's the way she's moving the outlet. I don't know.

388
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 2: Maybe she's in favor of Israel's existence or not thinking

389
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 2: that terrorists should be able to destroy them. I haven't

390
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 2: followed her feed that closely, but I would have no doubt. Well,

391
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 2: that is certainly something I can at least accept, rather

392
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 2: than people are like, hey, you know what we should do.

393
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,640
Speaker 2: We should support terrorists, or we should lie about what's

394
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 2: happening and support the word of Amas, which is a

395
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 2: lying terrorist organization. Maybe we should actually engage the facts

396
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 2: that present the facts. I think that makes good sense.

397
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 2: But the change up of sixty minutes Now you take

398
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 2: a look at Barry Wise trying to get Scott Jennings

399
00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 2: over from CNN, trying to get Brett Behar over from Fox.

400
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,919
Speaker 2: The Brett Bear one is kind of fascinating to me

401
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 2: in that leaving Fox Man, you got a nice life

402
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:55,159
Speaker 2: over there. You have built something for yourself over there,

403
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 2: and really, if you take a look at it, one

404
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 2: of the reasons you were able to do so is

405
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 2: because has britt Hume handed you the keys. This is

406
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 2: not a disparagement of Brettbear at all. Nice guy. I've

407
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 2: never met Brittain Hume. I've met Brett. It's that brit

408
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 2: Hume could have. He still could be leading that show

409
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 2: Special Report. He decided to walk away and just be

410
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 2: a special correspondent whatever it is he calls himself giving

411
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 2: the keys to Brett Baer, and he really got that

412
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,600
Speaker 2: opportunity and solidified it, strengthened it, built it. Maybe there's

413
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 2: an allure to broadcast news that I don't quite understand

414
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 2: for the news guy. Maybe a lot of money, a

415
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 2: lot of control Brettbaer would have to have in order

416
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 2: to take the gig. Scott Jennings is different. Scott Jennings

417
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 2: is doing commentary. He does a radio show, and I'm

418
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 2: sure he can do news.

419
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 3: I think he can do news.

420
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if he wants to, But Scott Jennings

421
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 2: is an interesting, interesting play.

422
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 3: What makes Scott Jennings work on CNN.

423
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 2: Is that he's taking on these leftists who know that

424
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 2: he is more prepared. He is unyielding in his approach

425
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,760
Speaker 2: and what he has been able to do with that

426
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: little like like side eye to the camera, like I'm

427
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 2: live streaming right now, So I was him, and I

428
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 2: was I was talking to to Anna Navarro and Anna

429
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: Navarro said something is as ridiculous as you know, Anna

430
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 2: Navarro would say, and then Scott Jennings would just make

431
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: that little side eye to the camera like and then

432
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 2: go back into the conversation like that's that's what made him.

433
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's going to translate on CBS.

434
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 2: And what would you do in increasing a role for him.

435
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 2: He can't just be somebody who's out there doing just commentary.

436
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 2: He can't be hired to be like what Chris Christie

437
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 2: does for ABC, because first of all, Chris Christy at

438
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: this point of the game is basically pretending his way

439
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 2: through it. You would need to have people on there

440
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 2: if you want Jennings to be interesting, who are going

441
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 2: to go that further left so he can expose the insanity?

442
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 2: Or what else is it that you're going to have

443
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 2: him do? Where do you put him? Where do you

444
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 2: place him? Do you like the talent? Yes?

445
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 10: You do?

446
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 2: You value the opportunity that he could bring, yes, But

447
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 2: one has to have a plan Chris Scott Jennings, and

448
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 2: I'm not sure where that plan is in CBS's landscape.

449
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 2: Give him a show. But if you give Scott Jennings

450
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 2: that show, you're now having a show that is clearly

451
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 2: on the political right.

452
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 3: I'm not opposed to such a thing.

453
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 2: I am saying that if we're talking about engaging as news,

454
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 2: you can have the commentary guy to discuss news stories

455
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 2: and what they mean and how they affect American, how

456
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 2: they're perceived by America. Can't have that guy doing news.

457
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 2: So I'm not so sure about the Scott Jenning thing,

458
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 2: Scott Jennings thing. And I'm not anti Scot Jennings at all,

459
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 2: the Brettbaar thing. He's under contract to twenty twenty eight,

460
00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 2: but changing things at CBS good and the more you see.

461
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 3: People upset about the changes.

462
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: The more you realize they were never interested in news

463
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 2: in the first place. I'm Tony Kats. This is Tony

464
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 2: Katz today. Starting with Republicans.

465
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 11: How is the shutdown seemed to have affected their political standing?

466
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

467
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 11: You might think, given that the Republicans are in charge

468
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 11: of both the House and the Senate, that a government

469
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 11: shutdown might actually hurt the Republican brand. But in fact

470
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 11: it hasn't. If anything, it's been helped a little bit.

471
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 2: Take ladies and gentlemen, Harryanton of CNN telling you that

472
00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 2: I was always right. Oh no, wait, you were always right.

473
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 2: Let's say it better. We were always right. Democrats misjudged

474
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 2: this shutdown in every single way.

475
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 11: Look here the shift in that popularity versus pre shutdown

476
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 11: among the g When we're looking at the Republican Party overall,

477
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 11: that brand actually up two points. That's within the margin everrap,

478
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 11: but clearly it hasn't dropped.

479
00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 2: Come over this side of the screen.

480
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 11: Look at the net approval ratings for Republicans and Congress

481
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 11: It's actually up five points, and.

482
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 2: Up five points because Democrats shut down the government. Democrats

483
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 2: caused those who work in air traffic control not to

484
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 2: get paid. Democrats are to blame and they like it.

485
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 2: Oh wait, you get into the whole conversation as we

486
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 2: will about leverage and causing pain.

487
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 3: And we're in a great place right now. Just lies,

488
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 3: all lies. The data is the data.

489
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,520
Speaker 2: Anything else, Harryenton is pre shutdown.

490
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 11: So what we're seeing here is the Republican brand in

491
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 11: Congress has actually improved somewhat compared to where we were

492
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 11: pre shutdown, despite the fact the Republicans control. And that's

493
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 11: the mat that John Thune and Mike Johnson are looking

494
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 11: at is, Hey, why should we give an electorally speaking

495
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 11: when our brand has actually improved a little bit.

496
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 2: Now we say their position is getting better with whom? Yeah, okay,

497
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 2: with whom?

498
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 3: So I think it's true everyone who's normal? Oh wait,

499
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 3: that question wasn't for me.

500
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 2: I thought that question was that was I assume sorry,

501
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I assume that question was for me.

502
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 11: Two groups that it's so important to keep an eye

503
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 11: on it, all right, Changing the Republican Congresses and net

504
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 11: approval rating versus pre shutdown, it's rallying the base for sure.

505
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 11: Look at this, the net approval rating up twelve points

506
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 11: versus pre shutdown.

507
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 5: But it's not just with the base, it's also.

508
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 3: With the middle of the electorate.

509
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 11: Look at this among independent it's up eight points as well.

510
00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:07,520
Speaker 2: Eight points that is, I believe if I was a

511
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,560
Speaker 2: political observer, and I am, I believe the terminology we

512
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 2: would use there in the Latin is seismic. Eight points

513
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 2: up with independence. I know politicos who would give their

514
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 2: right pinky to be up eight points with independence. What

515
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 2: are you talking about being up with the Republicans. Well,

516
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 2: I mean that's good. They've totally bought into this and

517
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 2: they think you've got the better argument. But Independence have

518
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 2: looked at this and say you have the better argument

519
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: as well. It's ballgame. This is ballgame. This whole shutdown.

520
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:55,200
Speaker 2: Democrats look terrible. Democrats did this. Democrats will be blamed,

521
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 2: and all of this. Republicans have to te into the midterms.

522
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,160
Speaker 2: My problem is I don't know if Republicans are smart

523
00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 2: enough to do it. This is the great test because

524
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 2: in a midterm where one party has power, the other

525
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 2: party usually is able to get advantages and gain votes,

526
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,520
Speaker 2: which means Democrats normally in any year, would be able

527
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 2: to take the House. If you keep the House in

528
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 2: Republican hands, that's the story. Now, how do you do it?

529
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:38,439
Speaker 2: Are Republicans smart enough strategic enough to at least try?

530
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 2: You can't take advantage of this? What can you take

531
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 2: advantage of it? I'm Tony Katz.

532
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:53,640
Speaker 1: Line from ball Hertbind and The Crossroads of America.

533
00:35:53,920 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 3: It's Tony Katz today.

534
00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 2: Net Yahoo engaged in strikes on Gaza. This after Hamas

535
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 2: and Israel exchanged fire, they're also exchanging blame. Nothing is

536
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 2: new here in the chatroom there of the live stream,

537
00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 2: Brian had said, just saw that the Midi steel was

538
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:50,760
Speaker 2: falling apart, and I said, tongue in cheek, Well, of course,

539
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 2: who thought this was going to work? Who assumed this

540
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 2: was going to work? You could hope it worked. You

541
00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 2: could hope that it was the end of Hamas and

542
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 2: these partner nations that want to profit from whatever construction

543
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:13,760
Speaker 2: and building happens inside Gaza can get Hamas to go away,

544
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 2: which really involves telling Iran, if you send these people

545
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 2: another dime, we're going to encourage the United States to

546
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:23,280
Speaker 2: try other bombing runs on you because we have money

547
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 2: we can make, and we want to be left alone.

548
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,959
Speaker 2: We really don't care about Yoshia insanity. Thank you very much.

549
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,520
Speaker 2: What we want is to make some cash and be

550
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 2: left alone.

551
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,799
Speaker 3: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good to be with you.

552
00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,359
Speaker 2: But if that's not going to be the case, that's

553
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,839
Speaker 2: not going to be the case, well then why would

554
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 2: anybody think that Hamas can be trusted. You have a

555
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 2: news nation reporting via the Associated Press that Netanyahu said

556
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 2: he has ordered the army to carry out strikes on Gaza.

557
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 2: Mas was finding by saying it would delay the handing

558
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 2: over to the body.

559
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 3: Of a hostage.

560
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 2: This hostage was supposedly just found in a tunnel like

561
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,720
Speaker 2: they were walking. The tome was like, oh look, dead body,

562
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: let's go give that back to the Israelis. That's how

563
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 2: much care was taken. Newsmax reporting saying that Yahoo made

564
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 2: the announcement after Israel said Hamas open fire on Israeli

565
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 2: forces in southern Gaza. I'll remind everybody that this was

566
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:36,319
Speaker 2: the week I was supposed to be in Israel. I

567
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 2: was set to go. I was looking for flights. Some

568
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 2: things happened scheduling wise, and I did not go. This

569
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 2: was the week.

570
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 3: So I.

571
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 2: Do have friends there right now. So nat Yahoo says

572
00:38:54,840 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 2: that the return is a clear violation the return of

573
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 2: what they returned, hamas returning a set of remains that

574
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: Israel said belonged to a body of an Israeli hostage

575
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 2: recovered earlier in the war, meaning they didn't return the

576
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 2: entirety of the remains. And thus they're saying is a violation.

577
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: It's Hamas. It's all a clear violation. This isn't new

578
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:35,760
Speaker 2: and is this a threat to Trump's peace steal? Hamas

579
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 2: is the threat to Trump's peace steal. And if you

580
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,959
Speaker 2: follow the show sheet, which I'll make sure it gets

581
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 2: posted in the next hour over there at Tony Kats

582
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 2: dot com, I believe it was yesterday that I stated

583
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 2: about President Trump. Trump has to stop talking about Hamasa.

584
00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 2: Just do what needs to be done already, because what

585
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: Trump said the their day was Hamas won't be hard

586
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:08,400
Speaker 2: to take care of if the Gaza ceasefire fails. I

587
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 2: don't know what to do with that information. I have

588
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,879
Speaker 2: no idea how I'm supposed to process that. This isn't

589
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 2: the first time President Trump has engaged this kind of

590
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 2: red line talk. Right, here's the red line. You can't

591
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 2: cross it enough already, mister president. Go do something about them,

592
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,240
Speaker 2: Go handle it. If it doesn't hold, that would be Hamas.

593
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 2: Trump continued, Hamas will not be hard to take care

594
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:40,640
Speaker 2: of very quickly.

595
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 3: I hope it holds for Hamas too.

596
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 2: Because they gave us their word on something, so I

597
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 2: think it's going to hold. And if it doesn't, then

598
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 2: they'll have a very big problem that it's not holding.

599
00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 2: Am I being clear enough. It doesn't make me happy,

600
00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 2: It doesn't make me want to go. I told you

601
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,919
Speaker 2: so in all of these jadvans, the Vice President said

602
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 2: something that I thought was very valuable, and he said,

603
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:14,360
Speaker 2: what is with all these people rooting for failure? Now

604
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,239
Speaker 2: that is a different conversation than having institutional knowledge and

605
00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:19,359
Speaker 2: experience to know that.

606
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:20,399
Speaker 3: Some things just don't work.

607
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 2: And sometimes fresh eyes come in and they're full of

608
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:26,839
Speaker 2: something in vinegar and they're like, we've got this.

609
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:27,960
Speaker 10: You know.

610
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 2: This was the conversation that Jade Vance put forth with

611
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 2: Vladimir Zelenski in the White House. It was we're using

612
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:39,919
Speaker 2: diplomacy here to deal with the Russians. And Zelenski said,

613
00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:43,719
Speaker 2: what diplomacy? We did this, We did this, we signed this,

614
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 2: We signed that. You can't trust the Russians. You've got

615
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 2: an ocean separating you and I argue that Jade Vance

616
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,240
Speaker 2: was caught absolutely flat footed.

617
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 3: He did not expect a response, and.

618
00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 2: It wasn't until Zelenski, through a broken English, said you

619
00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 2: don't have to deal with the Russians because you've got

620
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:02,240
Speaker 2: an ocean. But you'll see. And that's when Trump stepped

621
00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,240
Speaker 2: in and did what Trump doesn't. I think President Trump

622
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,319
Speaker 2: was accurate in what he did. It's Jadie Vance who

623
00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 2: misread that moment. But it is a far different thing

624
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 2: to deal with the reality of a situation than it

625
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 2: is to hope for failure of a situation. And jd

626
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 2: Vance's argument was the Vice President's argument was, what is

627
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:27,360
Speaker 2: with these people rooting for failure. I don't want failure.

628
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 2: I want to not have to think about this so

629
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 2: I can think about other things. I want to not

630
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 2: have to report on it or share the story on it,

631
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,760
Speaker 2: so I can talk about other things. But to pretend

632
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,960
Speaker 2: it's not happening, Oh, that's just nuts. So you have

633
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: this violation by Hamas as has been reported. You have

634
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 2: Israeli's firing back. We will see where this goes. Meanwhile,

635
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,919
Speaker 2: you have a different kind of shot fired between Representative

636
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:06,799
Speaker 2: Alexandria Cassio Cortez and Riley gave means it's ugly, and

637
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 2: it really does say a lot about the kind of

638
00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,760
Speaker 2: person AOC is. I hate calling your AOC a Cassio

639
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 2: Cortes is, and it really does when you take a

640
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 2: look at your Twitter feeds, it really does show that

641
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 2: progressive women, liberal white women, but progressive women.

642
00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,080
Speaker 3: In general, they like it when men beat women.

643
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 2: I meant in sports, but it's understandable when you go

644
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 2: in any other direction with it. I have that story

645
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 2: coming up what caused this fight and why it matters?

646
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 2: It matters because my gosh, are we not done with

647
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:52,600
Speaker 2: the culture wars which we also have to win. I'm

648
00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 2: Tony Katz and this is Tony Kats today.

649
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 12: What leverage does do the Democrats have at this point?

650
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 12: I mean, Wark said the only leverage left is the

651
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 12: shutdown and working families in order to get the GOP

652
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 12: to fix Obamacare. Where do we standing now?

653
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 2: Before we go on, producer Landon finger on the dumb button,

654
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 2: because it's Senator John Fetterman answering questions from Nicholas Ballacy

655
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 2: and who knows what the great hooded one might say?

656
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,239
Speaker 2: I know, I know when I say the Great hooded One.

657
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:29,960
Speaker 2: You think I'm talking about Robert Bird. Screw you. That

658
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 2: joke is awesome. How dare you? I want honestly, I

659
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 2: want to hear kudos, well done cats the great hooded one.

660
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 2: And it's not Robert Bird. You know what, I'm gonna

661
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 2: plaud myself here here, what do I have? Applause?

662
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:46,959
Speaker 4: Yeah?

663
00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:47,440
Speaker 2: There it is.

664
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,359
Speaker 3: I got a little bit of cheering going on right there.

665
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 2: Good on me, Tony Katz, Tony Kats. Today the question

666
00:44:54,960 --> 00:45:00,000
Speaker 2: was asked about Representative Clark and others talking about having leverage. Hey,

667
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 2: a producer land and finger on the dumb button. You're ready,

668
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 2: let's go. You think that right now?

669
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,560
Speaker 13: That's just not whatever you say. Say I'm not going

670
00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,880
Speaker 13: to describe the lives of millions of Americans as like

671
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:14,839
Speaker 13: a euphemism as leverage. I mean, this isn't a political game.

672
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:19,280
Speaker 13: I'm not checking about how it's polling or who's gonna

673
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 13: blink or whatever.

674
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:20,880
Speaker 10: You know.

675
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 13: Two million Pennsylvanians are gonna lose their Snap benefits, and

676
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 13: I think we should have them both at the same time.

677
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,720
Speaker 13: Open this up, Snap comes back, and then I believe

678
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:33,279
Speaker 13: we can have an honest conversation with our colleagues on

679
00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,720
Speaker 13: the other side and develop those and extending those text credits.

680
00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:38,640
Speaker 13: You know, I think if plenty of them are gonna

681
00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 13: want this to have that conversation, open up this governor

682
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 13: a government, because that's not leverage.

683
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,680
Speaker 3: This is a fail. Does it make the dumb?

684
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 2: It's a fail that is accurate, that is accurate. Is

685
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 2: it is a complete and total fail. Speaking of complete

686
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:09,800
Speaker 2: total fails, Representative Alexandria Cassio Cortez see that one was

687
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 2: pretty good, but usually I associate it with a bit

688
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 2: of music.

689
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,240
Speaker 3: Representative Cossio Cortez.

690
00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:38,879
Speaker 2: Decided that a simple comment from Riley Gaines required a

691
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,319
Speaker 2: burn it all down kind of moment, and in that

692
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 2: moment you see exactly how much leftists, including leftist women,

693
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 2: hate women. Now, if you ask me why this is,

694
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 2: I can answer that question in one note.

695
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:00,800
Speaker 3: It's very much along the same lines.

696
00:47:00,800 --> 00:47:05,760
Speaker 2: And there was a good headline from Twitchy over there

697
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 2: about this funny how that blank works. Black man drops

698
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 2: the NAACP for endorsing a white woman over wins sears.

699
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:20,399
Speaker 2: This is the race for governor in Virginia, and I

700
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 2: thought this had happened. The NAACP is endorsing Abigail span

701
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 2: Burger for Virginia Governor not win some sears. Abigail win

702
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 2: some sears is black and Abigail's span Burger is so

703
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:47,240
Speaker 2: white she is almost translucent. Abigail Spanburger is so white

704
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,880
Speaker 2: her nickname. She was actually the stunt double in the

705
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 2: movie Powder Beyond White. I'm surprised her eye color has

706
00:47:57,480 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 2: any pigment. Why in the world would the National Association

707
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:08,280
Speaker 2: for the Advancement of Colored People, the NAACP, Why would

708
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 2: they endorse the white woman over the black woman. No,

709
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:15,719
Speaker 2: I don't.

710
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 3: I don't need Jeopardy music for that.

711
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 2: I mean, we all know the we all know the

712
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,879
Speaker 2: answer there, and if you don't know the answer, will

713
00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:27,320
Speaker 2: allow me. Something we have said on this show for years.

714
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,120
Speaker 3: We don't say it every day, but we do.

715
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 2: Bring it up often. If you're black and conservative to

716
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,360
Speaker 2: the progressive, you're not really black. If you're gay and

717
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 2: conservative to the progressive, you're not really gay. And if

718
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:47,000
Speaker 2: you're a woman and conservative to the progressive, you're not

719
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 2: really a woman. What I just said is absolutely true,

720
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:59,720
Speaker 2: is absolutely factual, is undeniable, unassailable. It cannot be argued

721
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 2: because the proof is the NAACP is endorsing Abigail Spanberger

722
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 2: over the black woman wins some seers, and we've got

723
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 2: a million more stories just like that.

724
00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 3: But we bring it back.

725
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:24,120
Speaker 2: To this story about Riley Gaines, Riley gains Hold on

726
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:25,399
Speaker 2: a second, Riley, We'll get to it.

727
00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 3: Riley Gaines is.

728
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,919
Speaker 2: On with I think that's a Marcometo's there, but she's

729
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:36,919
Speaker 2: on Laura Ingram Show and on Laura Ingram Show.

730
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 3: Riley Gaines.

731
00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:39,919
Speaker 2: You know her as the swimmer and she was forced

732
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 2: to swim with the man Leah Thomas, and Lea Thomas

733
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 2: as a man, will always be a man. We'll spend

734
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 2: the rest of his life a man, no matter what

735
00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,759
Speaker 2: he says, and he can say anything he likes, but

736
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:52,279
Speaker 2: he's a man. And she has taken up this fight

737
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,280
Speaker 2: and taken up this battle, and she has become massively

738
00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 2: popular about it from it. She has been heroic in many,

739
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 2: many anyways. She has since gotten married and built a family,

740
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:08,320
Speaker 2: has a child. And she said this about Representative Costio Cortez.

741
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:09,480
Speaker 2: Here's what I will say.

742
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 14: I want to honestly challenge AOC to a debate. She

743
00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 14: can defend socialism, I will defend capitalism. She can defend

744
00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 14: removing God. I will defend embracing a biblical worldview. She

745
00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,800
Speaker 14: can defend child sacrifice. I will defend the sanctity of life,

746
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 14: any of the radical and sane democratic policies and platform

747
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 14: that they stand for. I will debate the opposite. I'm

748
00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:31,839
Speaker 14: challenging AOC.

749
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 5: To it here.

750
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,840
Speaker 2: Challenging someone like a Cossio Cortez to a debate is

751
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:41,239
Speaker 2: standard operating procedure. There's nothing new about this, and I

752
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 2: would tell that to Riley Gaines saying that you want

753
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 2: to do that, It's fine, but it's much more for

754
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 2: show than anything else. Those kinds of things happen all

755
00:50:52,600 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 2: the time. But for whatever reason, Representative Acsio Cortes decided

756
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 2: to engage with this. And what Representative of Cassio Cortes

757
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 2: did was put out a post and the post reads,

758
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 2: and I would like to challenge this person to get

759
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:36,080
Speaker 2: a real job. You mean, like Bartender, why in the

760
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:43,439
Speaker 2: world would you say that, Representative of Cassio Cortes, Why

761
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,360
Speaker 2: would you Why would this be your response? I challenge

762
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 2: you to get a real job. That is very silly.

763
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 2: That's that is a ridiculous thing to say. It's pathetic.

764
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 2: Riley Gaines responds, because, well, of course one must respond

765
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 2: at all times. And Riley Gaines states, I have a job.

766
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 2: I'm a mom.

767
00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 3: It's the most important rewarding job in the world.

768
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 2: I think if you had a baby girl like I do,

769
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:36,400
Speaker 2: you'd understand my positions a little better. Well, oh damn,

770
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 2: now we're into Your problem is you don't have children.

771
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 3: It's getting rough. This then came to another post.

772
00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 2: That was put out by Riley Gaines, and it's a

773
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:08,160
Speaker 2: picture of a Cassio Cortes, Bernie Sanders, and Zoron Mamdani.

774
00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 2: And that post reads, by the way, the picture has Cossi,

775
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 2: Cortes and Mamdanni doing kind of Nazi salutes. I don't

776
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 2: know those are the rules now. We now say anything

777
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 2: where you're like hey and you're clearly waiving, we call

778
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,600
Speaker 2: that a Nazi Selena. It's just it's what happens. They

779
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 2: created the rules, I'm just following them. And she wrote,

780
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 2: We're being destroyed from within, that's what it is, she wrote,

781
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:41,240
Speaker 2: to which a Cassio Cortes responds, maybe if you channeled

782
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:44,320
Speaker 2: all this anger into swimming faster, you wouldn't.

783
00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 3: Have come in fifth.

784
00:53:55,680 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 2: Well, if the objective is the dig Congratulations everybody.

785
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:02,760
Speaker 3: You've all done great.

786
00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 2: If it's about being able to engage a level of

787
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:15,800
Speaker 2: self control as an elected official, we failed miserably. If

788
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,960
Speaker 2: this is what gets you clicks and likes and builds

789
00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:23,160
Speaker 2: your power base. By the way that post, maybe if

790
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,880
Speaker 2: you channeled all this anger into swimming faster, you wouldn't

791
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 2: have come in fifth. Four hundred and sixty eight thousand likes,

792
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:46,840
Speaker 2: and you have people copying this going after her. Haha,

793
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:57,320
Speaker 2: you came in fifth. I don't know the situation where

794
00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,920
Speaker 2: you could say to Kamala Harris, h you lost. If

795
00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 2: people won't go, oh, that's so sexist, or that's racist,

796
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 2: or how dare you? Or at least she tried. This

797
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:11,320
Speaker 2: is where we're at in our politics. And I'm supposed

798
00:55:11,360 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 2: to somehow think these people are good. I do not

799
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,840
Speaker 2: think these people are good. This is Tony Kats today.

800
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 3: Did mom Donnie lie about his aunt?

801
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 2: You might know the story by now that Zoronmum Donnie,

802
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 2: who is the candidate for mayor in New York?

803
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:34,640
Speaker 3: And I don't discuss New York.

804
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:38,800
Speaker 2: Politics if only because hey, if.

805
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:41,120
Speaker 3: You want to burn it all down in your city,

806
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 3: I can't stop you.

807
00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:50,000
Speaker 2: I cannot stop you. You can you can do that.

808
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:57,399
Speaker 2: The people are in in New York are fools if

809
00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:01,319
Speaker 2: they vote for this communist But the people of New

810
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 2: York are fools. I mean, that's just factual. And I

811
00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 2: have told my wife that if indeed Mamdani wins, we

812
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 2: are going to plan a long weekend.

813
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,400
Speaker 3: It will be our last trip. We will.

814
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 2: We have four or five museums we know we want

815
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 2: to get to. We have four or five places that

816
00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 2: we know we want to eat at and get that done.

817
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 2: Russen Daughters is on the list, of course. One of

818
00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 2: my favorite places is Tabola's, which is basically at the

819
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 2: bottom of Hell's Kitchen.

820
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 3: The lamb and.

821
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:43,600
Speaker 2: Wild boar meatballs are out of control. They're unbelievable. And

822
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,840
Speaker 2: I love that room at Tabola.

823
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 3: Don't like it, love it.

824
00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 2: If I ever opened a restaurant of that style, I

825
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:59,279
Speaker 2: would pattern it after it. I just adore the room

826
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 2: so greatly I can't take it. But I'm also I

827
00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 2: really like Hell's Kitchen. I don't know why that is,

828
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,480
Speaker 2: but I just I don't know. Something about it makes me,

829
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:11,000
Speaker 2: makes me I'm more than the village or anything else.

830
00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:13,919
Speaker 2: It's it just it works for me in a great way.

831
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 2: But yeah, it'll be over. There's no there's no existing

832
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 2: in in in that, not at all, in Mam Donnie's

833
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 2: New York. No chance. So the story here is that

834
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 2: Zora Mamdani, endorsed by Alexandria Costu Cortez, endorsed by Bernie Sanders,

835
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:40,760
Speaker 2: he tells this story.

836
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 3: I want to use this day. Sorry about that. And

837
00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 3: the story he tells.

838
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 2: Is about an ant and Islamophobia.

839
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 10: I want to use this moment to speak to the

840
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:07,880
Speaker 10: Muslims of New York City. I want to speak to

841
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 10: the memory of my aunt.

842
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 15: Who stopped taking the subway after September eleventh because she

843
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 15: did not feel safe.

844
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 2: In your head, jam, September eleventh is not about Islamophobia.

845
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:35,840
Speaker 2: This is a gross statement from Zaron Mamdani. I would

846
00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:44,000
Speaker 2: not doubt that there were Muslims who after September eleventh said, ooh.

847
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:43,920
Speaker 3: I'm concerned.

848
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:49,600
Speaker 2: But if you take a look across America post September eleventh,

849
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 2: you did not see every mosque in America burned to

850
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 2: the ground.

851
00:58:56,240 --> 00:59:01,360
Speaker 3: You didn't see that. You didn't you didn't.

852
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:08,520
Speaker 2: See a spate, a wave of Muslims being attacked on

853
00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 2: the streets that also didn't happen. But in no rational

854
00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,520
Speaker 2: way should anybody think for a moment.

855
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:23,840
Speaker 3: That September eleventh.

856
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 2: Is for you, Zora, mom, Dannie, or anybody else to say,

857
00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:37,520
Speaker 2: oh my Islamophobia. First, for the sake of clarity, Islamophobia

858
00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 2: isn't real. As with any phobia, You're talking about an

859
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 2: irrational fear that does not exist, that is not real,

860
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:55,480
Speaker 2: that is not true. Islamists, practitioners of and supporters of

861
00:59:55,760 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 2: Sharia are everybody's fear anybody who wants to live a

862
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:07,480
Speaker 2: free life. No one can coexist with Islamists, no one.

863
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,800
Speaker 2: Christians cannot do it, Jews cannot do it, Muslims cannot

864
01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:12,160
Speaker 2: do it.

865
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:13,840
Speaker 3: No one can.

866
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 2: Coexist with people who say submit or die, wear this

867
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:23,640
Speaker 2: or die, live in fear or die.

868
01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 3: No one, no society, has ever been.

869
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 2: Able to do it. This speaking of your aunt and

870
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 2: saying Islamophobia is nonsense. It's nonsense, trash. It should be

871
01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:48,240
Speaker 2: dismissed out of hand. Two things came from the reaction

872
01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 2: to this. First was a series of people who said,

873
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,880
Speaker 2: are you telling me that white people never heard of

874
01:00:55,000 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 2: everyone an extended family who are women being called auntie?

875
01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 2: Auntie is a term auntie gets used. It's a catch all.

876
01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 2: It's a catch all term. I am fully aware of this.

877
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 2: I understand what it is. But he didn't say auntie.

878
01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:22,480
Speaker 2: He said his aunt. He was specific, he was clear.

879
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:30,440
Speaker 2: This was his story, ladies and gentlemen. Turns out he

880
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:32,880
Speaker 2: didn't even get that part of the story right. It

881
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:40,120
Speaker 2: wasn't an aunt. It was some distant cousin of his father's.

882
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 3: That's who it was.

883
01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:51,280
Speaker 2: He got the story wrong, this story that made him

884
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 2: so emotional. He got wrong. I once told a story

885
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:07,920
Speaker 2: about my father rests his soul, about how when he

886
01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:14,400
Speaker 2: had a business that went south, he took a job.

887
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:16,680
Speaker 2: We lived in New Jersey and he took a job going.

888
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:17,480
Speaker 3: Into the city.

889
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,200
Speaker 2: And I think he was like I think it was

890
01:02:21,520 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 2: like mortgage something or other. I was young, and what

891
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:28,680
Speaker 2: I remember was my father was a big guy, a big,

892
01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:36,480
Speaker 2: round face, big guy, and he he put on a tie.

893
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 2: I was young, and I knew exactly how uncomfortable he was.

894
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 2: It is why, except for very special occasions, I do

895
01:02:45,080 --> 01:02:46,680
Speaker 2: not wear a tie.

896
01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:51,160
Speaker 3: Nope. I saw that, and I was giving this speech.

897
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,400
Speaker 2: I think it was at like a rotary club event,

898
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,480
Speaker 2: a few hundred people, and I was telling this story

899
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:02,440
Speaker 2: that my father was going to fight through it. He

900
01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:04,280
Speaker 2: lost the business, he was going to make sure his

901
01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:06,439
Speaker 2: family got fed, and he was going to find another way,

902
01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:12,280
Speaker 2: and he would head into the city from New Jersey

903
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:19,080
Speaker 2: into Manhattan. And I had said at the time that

904
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 2: he I don't think the car had air conditioning, and

905
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:27,040
Speaker 2: he would take this red Chevelle and drive into the city.

906
01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 2: And I always felt terrible afterwards after I'd watched it.

907
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 2: I got the car wrong. I meant chavette. It'd be

908
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 2: cooler if he had a Chevelle. Sometimes when you're telling

909
01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:49,160
Speaker 2: a story, you make a mistake you don't mean to.

910
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:58,560
Speaker 2: But there's a big difference between chevelle, chevette, an aunt, cousin,

911
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:04,120
Speaker 2: father distant when it's a story bringing you to tears.

912
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:06,680
Speaker 3: Mom.

913
01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:14,680
Speaker 2: Donnie was then asked about this, and he is outraged,

914
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:22,640
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen, that you're focused on this how many recently.

915
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:26,240
Speaker 3: In a recently addressment, heress your aunts might not hear.

916
01:04:26,280 --> 01:04:28,959
Speaker 2: It's really well, say first night, it's all about blood

917
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:31,320
Speaker 2: relative the past.

918
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:32,680
Speaker 3: Thing I was speaking about my aunt.

919
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:39,560
Speaker 15: I was speaking about Xanta Fui, my father's cousin sadly passed.

920
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 3: Away a few years ago, and.

921
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,520
Speaker 15: For the takeaway for my more than ten minute address

922
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 15: about a Islamophobia in this race and in the city

923
01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:52,680
Speaker 15: to be the question of my aunt tells you everything

924
01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:56,160
Speaker 15: about Andrew Cuomo and his inability to reckon with a

925
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 15: crisis of his.

926
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,800
Speaker 2: With all due respect, this has nothing to do with Andrew.

927
01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 2: This has to do with you. You're now not talking

928
01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:07,640
Speaker 2: about your aunts. You're talking about your father's cousin. Or

929
01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 2: are you're talking about both or are you talking about neither.

930
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:11,640
Speaker 2: I don't know how I'm supposed to believe anything that

931
01:05:11,680 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 2: you said, But September eleventh was not about islama phobia.

932
01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,800
Speaker 2: It was about being attacked for who we are and

933
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:21,160
Speaker 2: how we live. You want to argue, chickens come home

934
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 2: to roost. You leave that stuff with Barack Obama's pastor.

935
01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:26,479
Speaker 3: Don't bring that to our door.

936
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 2: Don't bring that to New York City, Or at least

937
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 2: that's the way I would think that New Yorkers would

938
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:36,320
Speaker 2: think about this, But I guess not. We've gotten far

939
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:40,400
Speaker 2: enough away from September eleventh, two thousand and one, twenty

940
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:44,480
Speaker 2: four years ago that now it's okay to totally dismiss

941
01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 2: what it is Islamis did to all of us and say,

942
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:51,760
Speaker 2: look how much you hate me because of your Islamophobia.

943
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 2: There is no islama phobia. Mister mom Donnie, you're a

944
01:05:56,680 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 2: spoiled elitist communist.

945
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 3: You're not good enough.

946
01:06:02,760 --> 01:06:05,520
Speaker 2: Now I would argue that Andrew Cuomo isn't good enough either,

947
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,480
Speaker 2: but sometimes I take the lesser to evils, which is

948
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 2: almost insane to say, because Cuomo kills Grandma. Sadly, I

949
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 2: don't think Curtis Sliwa can grab enough votes as the

950
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:29,760
Speaker 2: Republican to make this happen. It's stunning to witness this

951
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 2: casual lying. I don't think we should be a part

952
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 2: of it. Islamophobia is not real. A concern about Islamist

953
01:06:42,240 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 2: is absolutely important. Islamis cannot coexist with Western civilization, so

954
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 2: it's us or it's them. But the idea that in

955
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:54,840
Speaker 2: New York you have Muslims scared to walk down the streets,

956
01:06:55,160 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 2: I've seen what's happening with the so called protesters. They're

957
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 2: the ones trying to intimidate others. And it's certainly not

958
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 2: all because that's insane. Mom Donnie is the worst of

959
01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 2: the race baiters, No, not the worst. He is in

960
01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:18,800
Speaker 2: league with all the casual race baiters, all the people

961
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:24,360
Speaker 2: who want to divide by class. It's Marxism one oh

962
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 2: one kids, and yes, I.

963
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 3: Think New Yorkers are absolutely going to fall for it.

964
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 2: This is Tony Katz today. So I've got to fly

965
01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:36,720
Speaker 2: in the studio and people are suggesting ways to get

966
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 2: rid of it. And Brad, who does all our on

967
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 2: site video work and lighting, said I need a bug assault.

968
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:46,640
Speaker 2: Have you seen this thing?

969
01:07:47,400 --> 01:07:48,040
Speaker 3: I own one.

970
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 2: It's amazing, Tony Katz, Tony Kats today, Good to be

971
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:57,800
Speaker 2: with you. So it's it's it's the assault gun. And

972
01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:01,960
Speaker 2: what you do is you fill it with kosher and

973
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:07,000
Speaker 2: then it will shoot out this this little this stream,

974
01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 2: this burst of salt, and that will hit the bug

975
01:08:10,200 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 2: and knock the bug out, and then you can.

976
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:13,439
Speaker 3: Dispose of it as you will.

977
01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:19,520
Speaker 2: It's called an assault bug assault a salt salt.

978
01:08:21,360 --> 01:08:27,160
Speaker 3: It does work if you've got good aim. For sure.

979
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:28,559
Speaker 3: Did I say, hello, Tony.

980
01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:31,600
Speaker 2: Katz, Good to be with you. Amazon laying off up

981
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:36,599
Speaker 2: to thirty thousand corporate workers. Now this number has come

982
01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 2: in a couple different ways, because the Wall Street Journal

983
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 2: said thirty thousand. They're laying off white collar workforce, it's

984
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 2: about ten percent.

985
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:46,680
Speaker 3: They did a.

986
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 2: Layoff of over ten thousand, I believe in twenty twenty

987
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:59,040
Speaker 2: two it was CNBC that said fourteen thousand. They believe

988
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 2: they can replace these corporate people partially with AI. They

989
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,960
Speaker 2: don't need they don't need the people, and they're going

990
01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:13,680
Speaker 2: to try and be as efficient as possible. And this

991
01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 2: is one of the things that AI is doing now.

992
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:18,600
Speaker 3: Is a I'm going to be perfect to this.

993
01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:22,320
Speaker 2: I don't know, that's up to Amazon to decide, but

994
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,840
Speaker 2: people will realize that, yes, in many places, you can

995
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 2: indeed be replaced. Am I a buyer into AI? I

996
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:34,719
Speaker 2: was more of a buyer six months ago. I admit

997
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:37,560
Speaker 2: I'm a little less of a buyer now because what

998
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:44,479
Speaker 2: got explained to me was that the AI still doesn't work.

999
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:48,080
Speaker 2: I mean, it does amazing things, but if I put

1000
01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 2: in as the prompt, can you create for me a

1001
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 2: picture of me in a red shirt, and it pops

1002
01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:57,719
Speaker 2: out a picture of me in a maroon shirt, people

1003
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:01,000
Speaker 2: can be like, wow, that's so cool. If you're a programmer,

1004
01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 2: you realize it didn't work. There's something wrong with the

1005
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:07,439
Speaker 2: code because I said red shirt and that's a maroon shirt.

1006
01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 2: And that's not accurate. It's not accurate as a matter

1007
01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:16,559
Speaker 2: for the coders, it's wrong. And I think that that's

1008
01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:21,400
Speaker 2: a real, real issue. How do you get that part

1009
01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,040
Speaker 2: to be accurate? And how do you do that without people?

1010
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:29,479
Speaker 2: It's a unique question. This, by the way, falls in

1011
01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:32,519
Speaker 2: line with a story that UPS is going to cut

1012
01:10:32,720 --> 01:10:39,559
Speaker 2: forty eight thousand jobs in management and operations because they're

1013
01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:45,680
Speaker 2: finding opportunities to bring down costs. I'm curious as to

1014
01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:49,479
Speaker 2: how Magaville is going to respond. Trump is not going

1015
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:55,280
Speaker 2: to like seeing nearly eighty thousand jobs cut. He wants

1016
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:56,679
Speaker 2: to be a guy who creates jobs.

1017
01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:59,120
Speaker 3: But we're in a whole new world.

1018
01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:04,520
Speaker 2: This is Tony Katz Today.

1019
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:13,800
Speaker 1: Live from ball Hartlier and the crossroads of America.

1020
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:15,599
Speaker 3: It's Tony Katz today.

1021
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:18,400
Speaker 16: Thank you and good morning everyone. And I first want

1022
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:20,720
Speaker 16: to extend it a thank you to the RSC chair

1023
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 16: and the members of the RSC who are here today,

1024
01:11:23,840 --> 01:11:25,840
Speaker 16: and thank you for all the work that you've been

1025
01:11:25,880 --> 01:11:29,360
Speaker 16: doing in the district. I know we appreciate it. More importantly,

1026
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 16: I know your constituents appreciate it. I know I've been

1027
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:36,640
Speaker 16: standing at this podium with Speaker Johnson and House leadership

1028
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:41,559
Speaker 16: for weeks now, and every time we have said the

1029
01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:48,400
Speaker 16: same thing. Republicans voted to keep the government open, Democrats

1030
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 16: voted to shut it down.

1031
01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 5: Period.

1032
01:11:51,840 --> 01:11:53,080
Speaker 2: It is that simple.

1033
01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 16: This week, more than any other week, the consequences become

1034
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 16: possible to ignore. As of yesterday, more than ten thousand

1035
01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:09,920
Speaker 16: flights have been delayed because of staffing shortages. By the

1036
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:14,640
Speaker 16: end of this week, nearly two million, two million paychecks

1037
01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:20,120
Speaker 16: will be missed by Americans, and by Saturday, forty two

1038
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:25,120
Speaker 16: million Americans will lose their SNAP benefits. Let that sink in.

1039
01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:29,400
Speaker 16: Forty two million Americans will lose their Snap benefits this

1040
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:34,519
Speaker 16: Saturday because Democrats want to use them as leverage. This

1041
01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 16: is real pain, real fear, and real consequences.

1042
01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:41,400
Speaker 2: Maybe we should be considering the fact that forty two

1043
01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 2: million Americans need food stamps. Maybe we should be asking

1044
01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:47,000
Speaker 2: of those forty two million, how many of them are

1045
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:48,040
Speaker 2: actually Americans?

1046
01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:50,400
Speaker 3: Which is a legitimate conversation.

1047
01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:53,920
Speaker 2: But more importantly, this is the Republican speaking about day

1048
01:12:54,040 --> 01:13:00,960
Speaker 2: twenty eight of the government shutdown. Democrats still sticking to there, well,

1049
01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 2: they don't carry guns, whatever it is they stick to. Tony Katz.

1050
01:13:04,600 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 2: Tony Katz today, good to be with you. I forget

1051
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:08,960
Speaker 2: the name of that member of Congress. Oh, it's gonna

1052
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:13,639
Speaker 2: drive me crazy. But Speaker Johnson again took to the roster,

1053
01:13:13,760 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 2: but took to the podium to say, listen, the pain

1054
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 2: is real. You've got air traffic controllers not getting paid

1055
01:13:21,000 --> 01:13:24,000
Speaker 2: full paychecks as of today. You've got these issues with

1056
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:27,960
Speaker 2: snap benefits. Their money is not there, they will not fund.

1057
01:13:28,080 --> 01:13:31,080
Speaker 2: And everything the Democrats tell you is look at the

1058
01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,320
Speaker 2: great leverage we have, which is a weird argument.

1059
01:13:33,800 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 3: And Republicans, you know what is it.

1060
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:38,679
Speaker 2: They always write in the news when Republicans say something,

1061
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:39,639
Speaker 2: Republicans pounce.

1062
01:13:39,680 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 3: Republicans sees right.

1063
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:44,000
Speaker 2: It's always how Republicans sees on this and sees on

1064
01:13:44,080 --> 01:13:48,599
Speaker 2: the great They're doing a terrific job of showing that

1065
01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 2: Schumer and Bernie Sanders and the rest only care about

1066
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:56,080
Speaker 2: a leverage position, which is the abuse of Americans not

1067
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 2: getting paid. I've said before I don't think people are

1068
01:13:59,120 --> 01:14:02,240
Speaker 2: paying attention to this shutdown, but I also said the

1069
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:05,799
Speaker 2: longer this goes on and when people start not getting paid,

1070
01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:09,519
Speaker 2: more people will pay attention. I think we're into the

1071
01:14:09,640 --> 01:14:14,720
Speaker 2: pay attention part of this. The Speaker, Mike Johnson who

1072
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:17,800
Speaker 2: not only is talking about the shutdown, but talked about

1073
01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:20,960
Speaker 2: this report. If you haven't heard me discuss it, I will.

1074
01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:25,400
Speaker 2: Republicans coming out with a report of just exactly how

1075
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:28,680
Speaker 2: inept not only Biden was, but incapable at the end,

1076
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:31,680
Speaker 2: and how much it was indeed a cabal running the

1077
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 2: country and not the president.

1078
01:14:33,520 --> 01:14:37,320
Speaker 17: The House also continues to carry out its essential oversight duties,

1079
01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:40,880
Speaker 17: and you'll be reporting on this all day. But the

1080
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 17: over Chairman, James Comer, released a blockbuster report now on

1081
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:50,400
Speaker 17: the Biden Autopen presidency. And this report includes forty seven

1082
01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:55,160
Speaker 17: hours worth of transcripts and testimony revealing that every executive

1083
01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 17: action signed by the Autopen without written authorization from President

1084
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:05,120
Speaker 17: Biden should be voided. This is an unprecedented situation in

1085
01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 17: American politics and government.

1086
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:09,640
Speaker 5: The actions at President Biden.

1087
01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:12,559
Speaker 17: Simply were not all his own actions, and there are

1088
01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:16,719
Speaker 17: major implications to that, including all the pardons that he signed.

1089
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 17: Republicans are here in Washington and we're out in our district,

1090
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 17: fandaut across the country doing good work on behalf the

1091
01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:26,280
Speaker 17: people we serve and represent. And what are the Democrats doing?

1092
01:15:26,920 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 17: You've seen it. They're posting TikTok videos. They're bragging about

1093
01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:34,680
Speaker 17: using the American people's pain as their political leverage, and

1094
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 17: House Republicans are taking this day by day just like

1095
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,400
Speaker 17: the rest of the country. We have our House Republicans

1096
01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:41,679
Speaker 17: on a forty hour return notice.

1097
01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:43,360
Speaker 5: So then get back, understanding that.

1098
01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 17: Some flights may well be delayed, but to get everybody

1099
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 17: back here as soon as possible. As soon as the

1100
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:51,759
Speaker 17: Democrats decide to do the right thing and reopen the government,

1101
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,160
Speaker 17: we will get back to immediate and urgent and necessary

1102
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:58,360
Speaker 17: business on the House for itself. We're anxious to get

1103
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:01,919
Speaker 17: back to that, but we cannot have a regular legislative

1104
01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:06,600
Speaker 17: session until the Democrats do their most basic responsibility to

1105
01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:09,559
Speaker 17: reopen the government and get this moving again.

1106
01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:13,600
Speaker 3: So once again, Speaker Johnson the stated, I'm not calling.

1107
01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 2: The members back. They're ready to come back until we

1108
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:18,439
Speaker 2: vote to open the government. No one's coming back, nothing's happening.

1109
01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:22,719
Speaker 2: Don't tell me about the congresswoman elect from Arizona being seated.

1110
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 3: Don't tell me about this, that or the other.

1111
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:28,599
Speaker 2: You do your job. Republicans in the weirdest rarest moment

1112
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:32,880
Speaker 2: are completely unified on the subject. You're the ones not

1113
01:16:32,960 --> 01:16:36,360
Speaker 2: voting for the continuing Resolution. We'll talk after you pass it.

1114
01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:40,559
Speaker 2: Until then, have a nice time you figure it out.

1115
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 2: We're just going to point out how terrible you are.

1116
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:46,519
Speaker 2: And then he reached out to Congressman. I think it's

1117
01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 2: Fugler Fluger. Congressman Fluger who got into a whole conversation

1118
01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:55,000
Speaker 2: from the Republican Study Committee about how are members returning

1119
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,559
Speaker 2: to their districts. How do you look veterans and military

1120
01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 2: people in the eye and say, sorry, you're not getting paid.

1121
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 18: So it's really sad to think about what Catherine Clark

1122
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:07,519
Speaker 18: said last week. She said, of course there will be

1123
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 18: families that are going to suffer, but this is one

1124
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:14,599
Speaker 18: of the few leverage times we have. My colleagues stand

1125
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:18,679
Speaker 18: for families. The Republican Party stands for families because we believe,

1126
01:17:19,439 --> 01:17:23,320
Speaker 18: we know that our greatest asset in this country is

1127
01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:27,440
Speaker 18: the American family, That our country rests on the shoulders

1128
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:32,679
Speaker 18: of families, that the Republican Party will always advocate for families,

1129
01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:34,400
Speaker 18: that we will look up for families, that we will

1130
01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:40,280
Speaker 18: legislate to prosper families. And instead, the family is only

1131
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:44,599
Speaker 18: a point of leverage for our Democrat colleagues. How sad

1132
01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:49,960
Speaker 18: is that, you know, I'm thinking about military families right now.

1133
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:55,479
Speaker 18: I'm thinking about that soldier who is deployed around the

1134
01:17:55,479 --> 01:18:01,000
Speaker 18: globe to keep our country safe, to push back against

1135
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:03,400
Speaker 18: a threat. And I'm thinking about that phone call that

1136
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:08,000
Speaker 18: that soldier probably received this year, this month, in the

1137
01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:11,320
Speaker 18: last couple of days, asking whether or not they're going

1138
01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:14,320
Speaker 18: to get a paycheck, talking about the new baby at home,

1139
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 18: trying to figure out if they're going to be able

1140
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:18,839
Speaker 18: to pay their rent or even.

1141
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:20,960
Speaker 5: Buy some groceries or put gas in the car.

1142
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:22,639
Speaker 3: I was there.

1143
01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:28,599
Speaker 18: I'm a veteran. I've been serving on active duty when

1144
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:33,000
Speaker 18: shutdowns happened. This is a very stressful time for military

1145
01:18:33,040 --> 01:18:38,240
Speaker 18: families and commanders right now. Instead of being focused on

1146
01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:40,719
Speaker 18: the mission, instead of being focused on the threat, instead

1147
01:18:40,720 --> 01:18:43,600
Speaker 18: of being focused on the training and the exercises that

1148
01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:47,360
Speaker 18: keep our readiness and our lethality at the highest possible levels,

1149
01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:53,400
Speaker 18: now they're focusing all of their attention on making sure

1150
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:57,840
Speaker 18: that they're families of their subordinates, their soldiers, and their airmen,

1151
01:18:57,880 --> 01:19:02,559
Speaker 18: their marines, their sailors taken care of that they actually

1152
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 18: have the resources. And we have members of the Republican

1153
01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:09,719
Speaker 18: Party who are in our communities right now, convening groups

1154
01:19:09,760 --> 01:19:14,520
Speaker 18: of community leaders and banks, food banks, and other resources

1155
01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:16,800
Speaker 18: because Schumer has chosen.

1156
01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:17,599
Speaker 5: Not to pay them.

1157
01:19:18,439 --> 01:19:21,000
Speaker 18: Now, communities are having to take up with zero percent

1158
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:24,840
Speaker 18: interest bridge loans. Now, communities are having to defer those

1159
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:28,360
Speaker 18: mortgage payments and those car payments. So where the Democrat

1160
01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:33,720
Speaker 18: Party is failing, our communities are succeeding because they know

1161
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:37,680
Speaker 18: that the right thing to do is to fund and

1162
01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 18: help in this time of need. You know, the enemy

1163
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:48,679
Speaker 18: has not shut down. Our enemies around the world want

1164
01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:52,800
Speaker 18: us to be divided. I'm calling on my colleagues on

1165
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:55,840
Speaker 18: the other side of the aisle who served in the military.

1166
01:19:55,400 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 3: To do the right thing.

1167
01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:59,600
Speaker 18: We were there. We were there when Joe Biden and

1168
01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 18: Nancy Pelosi puts crs on the floor, and guess what,

1169
01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 18: we did the right thing.

1170
01:20:04,520 --> 01:20:05,360
Speaker 5: Multiple times.

1171
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:06,240
Speaker 3: We did the right thing.

1172
01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 2: Where are my.

1173
01:20:07,960 --> 01:20:10,360
Speaker 5: Democrat colleagues who served in uniform.

1174
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:13,680
Speaker 18: To stand up and rise above petty politics to do

1175
01:20:13,720 --> 01:20:16,360
Speaker 18: the right thing. Have you not gone home to your

1176
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:19,879
Speaker 18: districts to hear from your military communities, from your federal workers.

1177
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:24,040
Speaker 18: Have you not listened to your local communities telling you

1178
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:26,000
Speaker 18: to stop the nonsense?

1179
01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:29,120
Speaker 2: No, you know what.

1180
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,840
Speaker 18: They're not there. They're in New York City campaigning for Mondami.

1181
01:20:33,960 --> 01:20:38,280
Speaker 2: I think that's strong. Actually it's August Flueger. He is

1182
01:20:38,360 --> 01:20:41,160
Speaker 2: out of Texas, their chairman of the Republican Study Committee.

1183
01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:45,080
Speaker 2: That's strong. You're not there to take care of military families.

1184
01:20:45,080 --> 01:20:47,639
Speaker 2: The enemy has not stopped. And what are you doing.

1185
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,600
Speaker 2: You're campaigning for this is lamis slash communists. Slash communists

1186
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:55,879
Speaker 2: slash islamis loser in New York. I don't care if.

1187
01:20:55,720 --> 01:20:58,320
Speaker 3: New York falls off the clip. That's New York's problem.

1188
01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,519
Speaker 2: Although I don't think it's good for any America city

1189
01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:04,040
Speaker 2: to vote for a communist. But holy cow, this guy

1190
01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 2: you campaign for, but you don't have time for your district. Now,

1191
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:11,320
Speaker 2: this has a flip side conversation. Oh, there's the president

1192
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,680
Speaker 2: off on another trip. But he's not willing to negotiate

1193
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,559
Speaker 2: with us. He's not negotiating with you, is correct. He

1194
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:20,559
Speaker 2: doesn't have to. But he is negotiating with Malaysia, creating

1195
01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:24,040
Speaker 2: peace deals between Cambodia and Thailand. Now getting peace deals,

1196
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,760
Speaker 2: not peace deals, but trade deals with Japan and all

1197
01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:30,840
Speaker 2: of this getting ready for the big dog conversation regarding China.

1198
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,479
Speaker 2: He's doing the job we voted for him to do.

1199
01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 2: This is about you not doing your job. You're campaigning

1200
01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:43,679
Speaker 2: with a Kami pinko. That's the story. So as far

1201
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:48,559
Speaker 2: as again messaging and visuals go, I think Republicans are

1202
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:53,280
Speaker 2: continuing to engage here because even the military people have

1203
01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:55,519
Speaker 2: got to be like, well, that's a point. And as

1204
01:21:55,600 --> 01:21:59,400
Speaker 2: we've discussed, you have got a union called the American

1205
01:21:59,439 --> 01:22:03,160
Speaker 2: Federation of Employees. I think they have eight hundred thousand members,

1206
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:07,040
Speaker 2: and they're like a pass the continuing resolution and this

1207
01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:11,800
Speaker 2: shutdown today quote no half measures and no gamesmanship. That's

1208
01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:16,520
Speaker 2: real pressure on the Democratic Party, which still isn't going anywhere.

1209
01:22:17,040 --> 01:22:18,360
Speaker 3: Congressman Steve Scalise.

1210
01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:20,519
Speaker 5: Speakers talked about this over and over again.

1211
01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 19: But what has their reaction been, not figuring out a

1212
01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 19: solution to get out of it, an off ramp. It's

1213
01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:30,679
Speaker 19: doing stupid TikTok videos making fun of this situation, thinking

1214
01:22:30,720 --> 01:22:34,719
Speaker 19: that the American people are leverage, leverage in their.

1215
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:38,719
Speaker 5: Game to get some kind of unachievable goal.

1216
01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,080
Speaker 19: A trillion and a half dollars in new spending, two

1217
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:47,360
Speaker 19: hundred billion dollars in taxpayer benefits, free legals, gutting fifty

1218
01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:50,520
Speaker 19: billion dollars out of a healthcare fund for rural hospitals.

1219
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:54,280
Speaker 19: And again they try to claim it's about something else.

1220
01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:56,520
Speaker 5: Maybe it's about healthcare. Well, if it was about.

1221
01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:59,560
Speaker 19: Healthcare, they wouldn't be gutting fifty billion dollars out of

1222
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:02,880
Speaker 19: the rule healthcare fund. They wouldn't have fought, by the way,

1223
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:06,439
Speaker 19: on the Senate floor months ago, to remove a provision

1224
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:09,800
Speaker 19: the cost sharing ratios that would have lowered premiums on

1225
01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:13,200
Speaker 19: families by eleven percent. It was in our bill, we

1226
01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:16,800
Speaker 19: voted for, it passed out of the House. Democrats are

1227
01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:20,400
Speaker 19: still to this day bragging that they removed that provision

1228
01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:23,919
Speaker 19: from the bill that would have lowered premiums health insurance

1229
01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 19: premiums on families by eleven percent.

1230
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:28,320
Speaker 5: And they want to talk about healthcare.

1231
01:23:29,439 --> 01:23:31,840
Speaker 19: Give me a break. Look at what they've done. They've

1232
01:23:31,880 --> 01:23:36,760
Speaker 19: wrecked the healthcare system. They fought to raise premiums on families.

1233
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:40,400
Speaker 19: Democrats have over and over again, and now they're imposing

1234
01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 19: real pain on American families with this shutdown. We've got

1235
01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:45,720
Speaker 19: some new numbers that have come in, and these are

1236
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:51,040
Speaker 19: not good numbers. Unfortunately, Reuter's reported more than twenty seven

1237
01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:55,920
Speaker 19: hundred flight delayed nation nationwide on Monday, and more than

1238
01:23:56,000 --> 01:24:02,520
Speaker 19: eighty six hundred flight delays just Sunday, eighty six hundred

1239
01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:03,679
Speaker 19: flight delays.

1240
01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:05,559
Speaker 2: Think of how many.

1241
01:24:04,880 --> 01:24:08,559
Speaker 19: Families were impacted every flight, well over one hundred people

1242
01:24:08,680 --> 01:24:11,559
Speaker 19: on each one of those eighty six hundred flights that

1243
01:24:11,600 --> 01:24:16,479
Speaker 19: were delayed, all because Chuck Schumer and radical Democrats want

1244
01:24:16,479 --> 01:24:20,320
Speaker 19: to use American people as leverage.

1245
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:23,439
Speaker 2: This leverage conversation even more than what's going on with

1246
01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:28,519
Speaker 2: their travel, This leverage conversation. This, I don't know why

1247
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:29,559
Speaker 2: Democrats said it.

1248
01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:31,280
Speaker 3: This is the leverage we need.

1249
01:24:31,280 --> 01:24:35,640
Speaker 2: Whether it's Katherine Clark there from Massachusetts or it's Bernie Sanders, this,

1250
01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:40,880
Speaker 2: Chuck Schumer, this is a good spot for us. They still,

1251
01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:46,040
Speaker 2: I'm convinced that the left still doesn't believe that there

1252
01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 2: are cameras. They don't believe they are microphones somehow, because

1253
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:54,639
Speaker 2: the press so insulates them from anything that's considered real pressure.

1254
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:58,320
Speaker 2: They still at this moment don't believe that anybody's recording them.

1255
01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:00,720
Speaker 2: They don't believe that anybody's going to take what they

1256
01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 2: say and play it back to them and say, what

1257
01:25:02,160 --> 01:25:05,839
Speaker 2: did you mean by this? To say it's good leverage

1258
01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 2: is nuts and Republicans, as I said, seizing like seizing

1259
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:12,639
Speaker 2: is now their main job.

1260
01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:16,080
Speaker 19: A Democrat aide said they won't concede short of quote

1261
01:25:16,160 --> 01:25:17,720
Speaker 19: planes falling.

1262
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:20,599
Speaker 5: Out of the sky. Who are these people?

1263
01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:25,360
Speaker 19: Didn't they once care about this great nation and making

1264
01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 19: it better and now they think if a plane falls

1265
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,559
Speaker 19: on the sky that's their leverage for what.

1266
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:33,479
Speaker 3: Goodness?

1267
01:25:34,320 --> 01:25:38,320
Speaker 19: Chuck Schumer quote, every day gets better for us? Who

1268
01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:40,240
Speaker 19: is us? Because I can tell you who them are.

1269
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:44,240
Speaker 19: The American people are sick and tired of Chuck Schumer

1270
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 19: and his friends thinking it's a better day for him

1271
01:25:47,240 --> 01:25:51,000
Speaker 19: when they are feeling more pain. Senator Koons quote, the

1272
01:25:51,080 --> 01:25:54,360
Speaker 19: point of this shutdown is not just suffering for suffering's sake,

1273
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:57,640
Speaker 19: but to make a point as if suffering of the

1274
01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:01,200
Speaker 19: American people is not enough. We've heard, of course, over

1275
01:26:01,240 --> 01:26:04,599
Speaker 19: and over again, Catherine Clark. Shutdowns are terrible. Of course,

1276
01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,559
Speaker 19: there will be families that are going to suffer, but

1277
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 19: it is one of the few leverage times we have.

1278
01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:14,560
Speaker 19: They keep saying over and over again, they know American

1279
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:19,120
Speaker 19: people are suffering, they don't care. They want leverage for themselves.

1280
01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:21,679
Speaker 19: They want to show off to their radical socialist base.

1281
01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:23,120
Speaker 3: Bernie of course.

1282
01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:26,519
Speaker 19: Bernie Sanders, who was on the stage with aoc over

1283
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:29,200
Speaker 19: with Mandami the other day with their.

1284
01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 5: Socialist love fest.

1285
01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 19: Bernie quote, you reopen the government and we lose our leverage.

1286
01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:39,479
Speaker 19: That's what this hole shutdown is about. They're telling you

1287
01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:43,200
Speaker 19: what they mean. Democrats sourced in the Hill article last

1288
01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,559
Speaker 19: week that we talked about, quote, we would have enough

1289
01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:49,120
Speaker 19: votes to reopen the government if people were not terrified

1290
01:26:49,120 --> 01:26:51,520
Speaker 19: of getting the guillotine.

1291
01:26:51,760 --> 01:26:55,960
Speaker 2: And that's another part of this, right, The whole leverage

1292
01:26:55,960 --> 01:27:00,639
Speaker 2: thing plays ugly, But the reality is they're not moving

1293
01:27:00,800 --> 01:27:03,800
Speaker 2: because they're afraid of the progressive base that they created.

1294
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,840
Speaker 2: And so there's this great weird thing happening. I want

1295
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:10,320
Speaker 2: to correct the record, right, It is not a fear

1296
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:15,920
Speaker 2: of their base, of their progressive base. It is in

1297
01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:20,120
Speaker 2: concert with their progressive base. They're not scared of them.

1298
01:27:20,640 --> 01:27:25,360
Speaker 2: They are them. They just don't know it yet. This

1299
01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:28,360
Speaker 2: is what you created, this is what you're in league with.

1300
01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:33,000
Speaker 2: This is what you get. It's not fear because the

1301
01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:35,479
Speaker 2: people who might have fear or will be voted out,

1302
01:27:35,520 --> 01:27:37,679
Speaker 2: they will be pushed out. They will soon be gone.

1303
01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:41,680
Speaker 2: And the mom Dannis of the world are the leadership

1304
01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:45,599
Speaker 2: the Acossio Cortes is are the leadership. Bernie Sanders is

1305
01:27:45,680 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 2: still there. Must feel good. Look at the fruits of

1306
01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:54,120
Speaker 2: all of his COMMI labors. My gosh, this is who

1307
01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:54,599
Speaker 2: they are.

1308
01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:58,200
Speaker 3: Leverage, this is just the beginning.

1309
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 2: Tearing it down is the goal. So that's what they're doing.

1310
01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 2: There's no question, there's no debate, and it's not fear.

1311
01:28:10,640 --> 01:28:14,120
Speaker 2: This is who they are. This is the Democratic Party.

1312
01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:17,719
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. So Malay

1313
01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:21,400
Speaker 2: wins big in Argentina. Maybe this is good news for

1314
01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:25,360
Speaker 2: us considering the twenty billion dollars in credit swaps.

1315
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll actually get our money back.

1316
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:31,320
Speaker 2: I'm not not holding my breath, but it'd be nice.

1317
01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:35,800
Speaker 2: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, good to be with you.

1318
01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:39,400
Speaker 2: Find everything over at Tony Katz dot com. You should

1319
01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:45,240
Speaker 2: do that immediately, if not sooner. Hobby mmlay a huge,

1320
01:28:45,320 --> 01:28:51,200
Speaker 2: huge win. Investors are very very happy. The Argentinian peso

1321
01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:57,639
Speaker 2: up four percent against the dollar. Turns out that all

1322
01:28:57,680 --> 01:28:59,960
Speaker 2: of those people who said, oh look you voted for

1323
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:05,080
Speaker 2: Hobby m. Malay and all these austerity measures, and I

1324
01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 2: guess that didn't work. I guess that now they need

1325
01:29:07,320 --> 01:29:10,200
Speaker 2: us to bail them out. I guess this doesn't work.

1326
01:29:10,240 --> 01:29:16,080
Speaker 2: You need more liberal policies. Resounding is the word that

1327
01:29:16,160 --> 01:29:20,920
Speaker 2: I believe the Wall Street Journal used. This was actually

1328
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:24,360
Speaker 2: the headline, Malay wins mandate for free market revolution. In

1329
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:30,000
Speaker 2: Argentina's election, they won almost forty one percent of the

1330
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:34,320
Speaker 2: national vote. They more than doubled their representation in Congress.

1331
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:37,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I think in the Senate they went from

1332
01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:41,200
Speaker 2: six seats to twenty seats. I can think what they

1333
01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:44,120
Speaker 2: called the Senate. So that's like a two hundred percent

1334
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 2: increase plus. That's how well it did. That's how well

1335
01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:51,640
Speaker 2: the party did. This is really interesting conversation. If you

1336
01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:53,439
Speaker 2: take a look at Argentina, you take a look at

1337
01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:57,720
Speaker 2: Georgia Maloney in Italy, you take a look at what

1338
01:29:57,840 --> 01:29:58,960
Speaker 2: happened in Japan.

1339
01:30:01,040 --> 01:30:03,640
Speaker 3: With the election of Sanae Takeichi.

1340
01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:06,320
Speaker 2: I think I'll pronouncing that one right finally for the

1341
01:30:06,360 --> 01:30:10,519
Speaker 2: first time, and you're seeing this recognition of hey, we're

1342
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:13,200
Speaker 2: our own nation and we can have relationships. We have

1343
01:30:13,280 --> 01:30:16,200
Speaker 2: to be good as us, we have to be stronger,

1344
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:18,320
Speaker 2: we have to be better. And some people say, well,

1345
01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:21,520
Speaker 2: that's the rise of nationalism. It's the problem a recognition

1346
01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:25,480
Speaker 2: of borders and a sense of self is not the problem.

1347
01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:30,719
Speaker 2: The idea of global one global government is a problem.

1348
01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:34,000
Speaker 2: The idea of nationalism, thinking that one nation should be

1349
01:30:34,040 --> 01:30:36,439
Speaker 2: able to take over another nation because we're so great,

1350
01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:40,080
Speaker 2: Well that's an issue. But nations saying we can actually

1351
01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:44,000
Speaker 2: fight and win better battles within ourselves, I think that's

1352
01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:51,000
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. So all seems to have gone pretty

1353
01:30:51,040 --> 01:30:56,479
Speaker 2: well with President Trump in Japan. So far. This Asia

1354
01:30:56,560 --> 01:31:01,800
Speaker 2: trip is doing its job. He's having the meetings, he's

1355
01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:06,880
Speaker 2: trying to make the deals. He's saying, look, we've got

1356
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:09,400
Speaker 2: frameworks for this and frameworks for that.

1357
01:31:10,000 --> 01:31:11,360
Speaker 3: Well, the only thing that matters is.

1358
01:31:11,320 --> 01:31:15,559
Speaker 2: The meeting with Ajijiping and what happens with China. Tony Katz,

1359
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:18,840
Speaker 2: Tony Katz today, Great to be here, Great to be

1360
01:31:18,920 --> 01:31:22,920
Speaker 2: with You find everything over there at Tony Katz dot com.

1361
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:26,240
Speaker 3: You should do that immediately, if not sooner.

1362
01:31:25,920 --> 01:31:33,200
Speaker 2: If you don't mind the conversation about Japan and what

1363
01:31:33,560 --> 01:31:39,400
Speaker 2: has come of these conversations. Well, first, it is very

1364
01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:46,520
Speaker 2: very clear that the new Prime Minister of Japan, Sanae Takaichi,

1365
01:31:47,560 --> 01:31:51,400
Speaker 2: she's a fan, and certainly one could argue if she's

1366
01:31:51,479 --> 01:31:55,240
Speaker 2: not a fan, she's at least smart enough to understand

1367
01:31:55,920 --> 01:32:00,840
Speaker 2: that you need to have the United and it States

1368
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 2: with you when dealing with two things a pulling your

1369
01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:08,519
Speaker 2: nation out of the stagflation once and for all, and

1370
01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:17,000
Speaker 2: be dealing with the threat that is China. So you know,

1371
01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:22,120
Speaker 2: Trump is there, and of course he's doing what he does.

1372
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:28,240
Speaker 20: And we had a phenomenal day here in Japan with

1373
01:32:28,360 --> 01:32:31,960
Speaker 20: a momentous trade deal. We met a big, big, beautiful

1374
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:36,759
Speaker 20: trade deal for both countries. To the best of my knowledge,

1375
01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:40,599
Speaker 20: I think Japan also had the best stock market day ever.

1376
01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:45,400
Speaker 20: So your new prime minister is doing very well, first female,

1377
01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:48,640
Speaker 20: first woman prime minister. And I said, you already hit

1378
01:32:48,680 --> 01:32:52,160
Speaker 20: the highest stock price you've ever hit. So she's very happy.

1379
01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:54,320
Speaker 20: And we spent the whole day together. It was beautiful

1380
01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:58,479
Speaker 20: and she's great. We went out to the USS, the

1381
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:03,680
Speaker 20: George Washington, the s S George Washington. It was it

1382
01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:07,960
Speaker 20: was really great. The UH, the Sailors and a lot

1383
01:33:07,960 --> 01:33:09,280
Speaker 20: of others. We had a lot of people, a lot

1384
01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:11,800
Speaker 20: of military people were there, but there was some scene.

1385
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:12,960
Speaker 3: It was incredible.

1386
01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:15,400
Speaker 20: He wouldn't believe that a ship could hold that many people.

1387
01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:20,200
Speaker 20: But I just want to say that she is a

1388
01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:21,840
Speaker 20: delight and she's gonna be I think she's going to

1389
01:33:21,880 --> 01:33:23,080
Speaker 20: be a great prime minister.

1390
01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:23,600
Speaker 3: I do.

1391
01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:25,679
Speaker 20: I've got to know pretty well in a short period

1392
01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:28,400
Speaker 20: of time. She was a very good friend in Ali

1393
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,200
Speaker 20: of Shinzo Abi, who is a friend of mine, one

1394
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:33,439
Speaker 20: of my best friends in terms of this world, the

1395
01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:37,280
Speaker 20: world of nations. And he was a great man and

1396
01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 20: he got unfortunately what happened to him was sad.

1397
01:33:42,600 --> 01:33:46,600
Speaker 2: The former prime minister shinzo Abe was assassinated in Takaichi.

1398
01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:50,120
Speaker 2: He is a protege. And she said so very very

1399
01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:54,799
Speaker 2: proudly of shinzo Abe. And it's true that that Trump

1400
01:33:54,880 --> 01:33:58,639
Speaker 2: and Abbe actually had a rather good relationship. From every

1401
01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:02,920
Speaker 2: source I have this, so that does add to it.

1402
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:07,680
Speaker 2: This is to our advantage to have somebody who is

1403
01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:14,760
Speaker 2: not only pro American but is very much thinking profoundly

1404
01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:19,439
Speaker 2: about her nation's future, because that means we have a

1405
01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:22,400
Speaker 2: better effort in thwarting China.

1406
01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:24,559
Speaker 3: This is good stuff. Now.

1407
01:34:24,800 --> 01:34:28,280
Speaker 2: There were a series of moves made, including you have

1408
01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:33,080
Speaker 2: Japan giving the United States two hundred and fifty cherry

1409
01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:36,959
Speaker 2: trees to celebrate the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of America.

1410
01:34:37,840 --> 01:34:44,519
Speaker 2: You have the purchase that is taking place of Ford

1411
01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 2: f one fifties that Japan has said they're going to do,

1412
01:34:49,160 --> 01:34:50,720
Speaker 2: which the minute Trump heard about I think he was

1413
01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:52,920
Speaker 2: on Air Force when we heard about a Goada. So

1414
01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:57,280
Speaker 2: that's smart. You know, that's a hot truck. That is

1415
01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:01,400
Speaker 2: a hot hot truck right there. Good on them, and

1416
01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:06,120
Speaker 2: these people are not fools. It's about building the relationship.

1417
01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:09,400
Speaker 20: But tonight I'm more confident than ever that the friendship

1418
01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:12,719
Speaker 20: between the United States and Japan is strong, as strong

1419
01:35:12,760 --> 01:35:16,120
Speaker 20: as it can be, and it's thriving. It's prosperous, and

1420
01:35:16,280 --> 01:35:19,160
Speaker 20: it will soon be, I think, greater than ever before.

1421
01:35:19,200 --> 01:35:20,439
Speaker 2: And we had four great years.

1422
01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:22,280
Speaker 20: You know, we had the greatest economy in the history

1423
01:35:22,280 --> 01:35:25,280
Speaker 20: of our country. But we're blowing it away this time.

1424
01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:27,360
Speaker 20: To be honest with you, we're blowing that was we

1425
01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:28,479
Speaker 20: had four great years.

1426
01:35:29,800 --> 01:35:33,200
Speaker 2: Of course, he starts talking about him, he starts talking

1427
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 2: about the country.

1428
01:35:34,560 --> 01:35:35,280
Speaker 3: And the economy.

1429
01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:37,240
Speaker 2: Look what I created, and look what we had, Look

1430
01:35:37,280 --> 01:35:42,479
Speaker 2: what Biden did. But talking about that, the friendship between

1431
01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:45,280
Speaker 2: the United States and Japan is strong, as strong as

1432
01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:49,839
Speaker 2: it can be, and it's thriving. That's what Japan wants

1433
01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:56,040
Speaker 2: to hear. That is absolutely the kind of talk that

1434
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:56,760
Speaker 2: they want to have.

1435
01:35:57,479 --> 01:35:59,040
Speaker 3: They want to be able.

1436
01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:02,400
Speaker 2: To say that we have gotten the relationship and through

1437
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:07,160
Speaker 2: that relationship, we're going to be able to grow other opportunities.

1438
01:36:08,320 --> 01:36:11,840
Speaker 2: They signed the Rare Earth's deal, they signed a conversation

1439
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:16,679
Speaker 2: or engage a deal about nuclear power. All of these things.

1440
01:36:17,640 --> 01:36:22,240
Speaker 2: All of these things are not just about hey, America

1441
01:36:22,360 --> 01:36:25,320
Speaker 2: is going to make some loot, not just about Japan saying, hey,

1442
01:36:25,439 --> 01:36:28,320
Speaker 2: Japan's going to make some loots. All of this is

1443
01:36:28,640 --> 01:36:31,479
Speaker 2: how do you tie together to deal with the Chinese threat.

1444
01:36:32,640 --> 01:36:34,360
Speaker 3: That's all there is.

1445
01:36:35,400 --> 01:36:39,360
Speaker 2: It was interesting Reuters made the point they made no

1446
01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:42,439
Speaker 2: direct public mention of China, which processes more than ninety

1447
01:36:42,439 --> 01:36:44,960
Speaker 2: percent of the world's rare earth, making it the source

1448
01:36:45,000 --> 01:36:49,080
Speaker 2: of each country's concern about its mineral supply chain. So

1449
01:36:49,840 --> 01:36:52,960
Speaker 2: they were China's been engaging in export curbs, and when

1450
01:36:53,000 --> 01:36:55,000
Speaker 2: they did that, it was Trump had said, well, I

1451
01:36:55,040 --> 01:36:55,640
Speaker 2: don't need to meet with.

1452
01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:56,920
Speaker 3: Jesi Peng of he's going to be like this.

1453
01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:02,120
Speaker 2: That's fine, But now rare earth has been the focus

1454
01:37:02,360 --> 01:37:05,880
Speaker 2: has been a serious, serious subject for Trump. You saw,

1455
01:37:06,960 --> 01:37:09,040
Speaker 2: I think it was the deal with with Australia. You've

1456
01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:11,040
Speaker 2: seen other deals. You saw the deal just a day

1457
01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:13,559
Speaker 2: or two ago with Malaysia on rare earth.

1458
01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:14,799
Speaker 3: So now the deal with Japan.

1459
01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:18,400
Speaker 2: The issue with rare earth minerals, I mean, we should

1460
01:37:18,439 --> 01:37:23,439
Speaker 2: be at least all understanding what it is we're talking about.

1461
01:37:23,880 --> 01:37:27,840
Speaker 2: It's not that we don't have the access of the

1462
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:32,760
Speaker 2: minerals and these things are used in critical components, electronics,

1463
01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:41,840
Speaker 2: things like that. It's that the clearing, the cleaning, the processing.

1464
01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:48,439
Speaker 3: Of rare earth that is dirty, dirty work.

1465
01:37:49,600 --> 01:37:53,120
Speaker 2: And the issue there is that not every nation is

1466
01:37:53,200 --> 01:37:59,479
Speaker 2: set up to do this dirty work. And so it

1467
01:37:59,560 --> 01:38:03,519
Speaker 2: is that is set up to do this dirty work

1468
01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 2: they have the most amount of control over its sale

1469
01:38:10,720 --> 01:38:12,720
Speaker 2: and utility.

1470
01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:14,320
Speaker 3: The last thing in the world you.

1471
01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:20,800
Speaker 2: Want is China having this level of control. There are

1472
01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:25,759
Speaker 2: other nations that have rarers. Canada has a lot of rarers,

1473
01:38:26,800 --> 01:38:29,360
Speaker 2: but it's about the other parts of it. So China

1474
01:38:29,439 --> 01:38:32,320
Speaker 2: has been the key player in this. Other nations are

1475
01:38:32,360 --> 01:38:39,320
Speaker 2: coming along now ipso facto after the fact, the relationship deals.

1476
01:38:39,120 --> 01:38:43,479
Speaker 2: It's the same way China is working, although they do

1477
01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:47,559
Speaker 2: it differently. To get soybeans grown in South America so

1478
01:38:47,600 --> 01:38:49,519
Speaker 2: they don't have to rely on American farmers, so you

1479
01:38:49,560 --> 01:38:51,519
Speaker 2: can cut them right out. Twelve and a half billion

1480
01:38:51,600 --> 01:38:54,479
Speaker 2: dollars that right now because of the trade issues, has

1481
01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:58,960
Speaker 2: gone to zero on soybean sales to China. They utilize

1482
01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:03,280
Speaker 2: soybeans and soybean by products to feed the hogs, which

1483
01:39:03,360 --> 01:39:08,000
Speaker 2: are a massive source. I would argue the primary source.

1484
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:09,679
Speaker 2: So that could have changed in the last couple of years.

1485
01:39:09,840 --> 01:39:13,000
Speaker 2: I don't think it has primary source of food for

1486
01:39:13,280 --> 01:39:19,280
Speaker 2: the Chinese people. Massive, massive industry in China. How people

1487
01:39:19,320 --> 01:39:23,320
Speaker 2: get fed, it's pigs and so soybeans are a huge

1488
01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:25,400
Speaker 2: part of that diet. That's what they have had to

1489
01:39:25,400 --> 01:39:27,000
Speaker 2: rely in the United States for. They don't want to

1490
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:30,320
Speaker 2: rely in the United States, so they've been working with

1491
01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:34,000
Speaker 2: South American nations. Now understand they don't work with them

1492
01:39:34,320 --> 01:39:36,519
Speaker 2: because they don't engage free trade. They say, hey, here's

1493
01:39:36,560 --> 01:39:39,479
Speaker 2: all this money, and then basically they're buying that nation.

1494
01:39:39,800 --> 01:39:43,160
Speaker 2: This has happened in Africa repeatedly. Oh yeah, well, we'll

1495
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:44,679
Speaker 2: have trade with you. Hey, you know what, we'll build

1496
01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:46,559
Speaker 2: an airport for you. We'll build an airport for you.

1497
01:39:46,600 --> 01:39:47,960
Speaker 2: In that way things can get in and out easy

1498
01:39:47,960 --> 01:39:49,760
Speaker 2: to be it's so great and oh yeah. Now we

1499
01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:51,800
Speaker 2: control the airport. We decide who gets in and out

1500
01:39:51,920 --> 01:39:54,960
Speaker 2: and what gets in and out. And that is how

1501
01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:58,120
Speaker 2: you take over a country without having to fire a shot.

1502
01:39:59,320 --> 01:40:04,280
Speaker 2: It's China. We get it. I didn't say anything that

1503
01:40:04,400 --> 01:40:07,000
Speaker 2: you didn't already know. Now, maybe you didn't know that

1504
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 2: that's how China is operating, but once.

1505
01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:10,559
Speaker 3: You heard it, you're like, well, of course that's how

1506
01:40:10,640 --> 01:40:11,479
Speaker 3: China's operating.

1507
01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:13,599
Speaker 2: All right, I'm busy with my life, right, You've got

1508
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:15,360
Speaker 2: your job, you got your kids, you got your things.

1509
01:40:15,720 --> 01:40:17,840
Speaker 2: You haven't thought about that. But the minute you hear it,

1510
01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:19,960
Speaker 2: you're like, well, of course it's how China does it.

1511
01:40:20,800 --> 01:40:23,800
Speaker 2: Of course, why would anybody be shocked or surprised when

1512
01:40:23,840 --> 01:40:27,639
Speaker 2: they heard that? It would make you go oh really, well, yeah,

1513
01:40:27,640 --> 01:40:28,920
Speaker 2: of course that's China.

1514
01:40:29,120 --> 01:40:30,120
Speaker 3: China spending money.

1515
01:40:30,160 --> 01:40:36,120
Speaker 2: I'm building like railways, a railcar systems in South America

1516
01:40:36,360 --> 01:40:39,920
Speaker 2: so they could transport the soybeans all to cut out

1517
01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:43,240
Speaker 2: the United States. So this is the objective of trying

1518
01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:46,840
Speaker 2: to You're not going to cut China out. I don't

1519
01:40:46,880 --> 01:40:48,679
Speaker 2: know how that one would work. I would need much

1520
01:40:48,680 --> 01:40:51,960
Speaker 2: more research to figure that one out. But rather, how

1521
01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:57,120
Speaker 2: do you limit less in China's capability and the more

1522
01:40:57,240 --> 01:41:00,920
Speaker 2: rare earth you're able to get processed and other places.

1523
01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:03,320
Speaker 3: You do what you drive down cost.

1524
01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:08,080
Speaker 2: If you're driving down cost, you are playing the Reagan

1525
01:41:08,280 --> 01:41:13,960
Speaker 2: oil game on Gorbachev and you are sinking economies, which

1526
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:18,639
Speaker 2: is exactly how you beat the Chinese. You beat the

1527
01:41:18,760 --> 01:41:26,240
Speaker 2: Chinese by beating them economically. You economically starve them, you

1528
01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:30,680
Speaker 2: economically strangle them. Now, I'm not saying that in the end.

1529
01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:32,920
Speaker 2: I mean it is China. It might not involve a fight.

1530
01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:35,960
Speaker 2: I don't want to see that fight. Nobody wants that fight.

1531
01:41:36,560 --> 01:41:40,839
Speaker 2: How do you do it? You create hardship in China.

1532
01:41:41,400 --> 01:41:44,480
Speaker 2: That gets the people who have been promised a lifestyle

1533
01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:49,439
Speaker 2: through this communist, communist embrace. It gets them to be

1534
01:41:49,680 --> 01:41:53,200
Speaker 2: anxious and they start to get what's the word I'm

1535
01:41:53,200 --> 01:41:59,800
Speaker 2: looking for. That's right, upity. That's the story. And that's

1536
01:42:00,120 --> 01:42:03,519
Speaker 2: what I believe Japan is all in for. That's what

1537
01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:08,639
Speaker 2: Australia is all in for. This whole conversation about August,

1538
01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:12,720
Speaker 2: the Australia UK US agreement, now that's quite a few

1539
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:17,920
Speaker 2: years old now, but the building of submarines in Australia.

1540
01:42:18,320 --> 01:42:20,600
Speaker 2: You know, we talk about our US Navy and the

1541
01:42:20,640 --> 01:42:22,599
Speaker 2: need for more ships. And I've been on this for

1542
01:42:22,720 --> 01:42:25,519
Speaker 2: years and it's very, very true. We need much more

1543
01:42:25,520 --> 01:42:27,559
Speaker 2: ship building, not only in the cargo ship place, but

1544
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:29,400
Speaker 2: in destroyers and aircraft carriers.

1545
01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:30,080
Speaker 3: And all these things.

1546
01:42:30,240 --> 01:42:34,000
Speaker 2: We need to get a cruisers back out there and

1547
01:42:34,240 --> 01:42:37,480
Speaker 2: engaged in the fight anytime we need it aggressively.

1548
01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:39,719
Speaker 3: We need a three hundred and forty ship navy.

1549
01:42:39,800 --> 01:42:44,879
Speaker 2: I am a believer in this philosophy ten thousand percent.

1550
01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:49,520
Speaker 3: This has to happen. But we're really good at submarines,

1551
01:42:50,200 --> 01:42:51,080
Speaker 3: like we're.

1552
01:42:51,200 --> 01:42:55,800
Speaker 2: We're really really we're really, really really good at submarines.

1553
01:42:55,880 --> 01:42:58,600
Speaker 2: We just we've really got to figure it out. The

1554
01:42:58,640 --> 01:43:01,479
Speaker 2: technologies are out of control and it's a place where

1555
01:43:01,479 --> 01:43:06,479
Speaker 2: we have beyond dominated. There's nothing wrong with being even

1556
01:43:06,520 --> 01:43:10,680
Speaker 2: better at it. And so if we're gonna build in Australia,

1557
01:43:10,840 --> 01:43:13,040
Speaker 2: why is that so important to us? Take a look

1558
01:43:13,040 --> 01:43:17,320
Speaker 2: at the map. The strategic importance of building submarines and

1559
01:43:17,360 --> 01:43:21,519
Speaker 2: then launching from Australia is you're already where you need

1560
01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:25,160
Speaker 2: to be. You don't have to go halfway around the

1561
01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:29,240
Speaker 2: globe to get there. To keep an ear on people,

1562
01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:32,240
Speaker 2: to keep an eye on people, to keep the Taiwan

1563
01:43:32,360 --> 01:43:37,760
Speaker 2: straight clear, Lord only knows, because if you allow China

1564
01:43:37,840 --> 01:43:40,559
Speaker 2: to be the hegemonic power, you have a problem with

1565
01:43:40,600 --> 01:43:43,400
Speaker 2: the navigable seas. Therefore you have a problem with trade.

1566
01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:45,800
Speaker 2: And you take a look at Japan, you take a

1567
01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:48,200
Speaker 2: look at Australia, and that's not what they want. And

1568
01:43:48,320 --> 01:43:51,880
Speaker 2: so you go back to this conversation, this meeting with Japan,

1569
01:43:52,040 --> 01:43:57,120
Speaker 2: and really go back to Japan's election, go back to

1570
01:43:57,200 --> 01:44:02,760
Speaker 2: the election here of choosing saying Sanae takeiichi, this is

1571
01:44:02,800 --> 01:44:03,639
Speaker 2: a big deal.

1572
01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:04,000
Speaker 18: This.

1573
01:44:04,200 --> 01:44:07,320
Speaker 2: You know, we talk about Argentina and the vote from

1574
01:44:07,479 --> 01:44:11,559
Speaker 2: lay and winning re election and his party getting record numbers.

1575
01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:14,479
Speaker 3: This is about nations saying there's a better way.

1576
01:44:15,200 --> 01:44:16,880
Speaker 2: We got to believe in ourselves and we got to

1577
01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:19,280
Speaker 2: have the right relationships with others, and we need people

1578
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:22,559
Speaker 2: who know how to make those relationships work. And so

1579
01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:26,000
Speaker 2: there she is. That's what these meetings are about. That's

1580
01:44:26,040 --> 01:44:28,479
Speaker 2: what makes them so important. And yes they're hugely important

1581
01:44:28,880 --> 01:44:32,400
Speaker 2: for Japan. Let's not be fools, they're very important for us.

1582
01:44:33,280 --> 01:44:39,520
Speaker 2: These strategic relationships, these friendships, this is all about thwarting

1583
01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:45,000
Speaker 2: the China threat. Good work, mister president. Let's hope it holds,

1584
01:44:45,400 --> 01:44:48,280
Speaker 2: I'm Tony Katz. This is Tony Katz today. This was

1585
01:44:48,320 --> 01:44:55,879
Speaker 2: a fascinating headline from CNBC. Bill Gates softens climate disaster approach,

1586
01:44:56,360 --> 01:45:00,679
Speaker 2: says strategy needs to shift. So are you you admitting

1587
01:45:01,040 --> 01:45:03,200
Speaker 2: that you have been one of these doom and gloom

1588
01:45:03,280 --> 01:45:06,439
Speaker 2: people in order to amass power or believe that people

1589
01:45:06,479 --> 01:45:09,400
Speaker 2: should listen to you? And now you realized, wait a second,

1590
01:45:09,520 --> 01:45:12,400
Speaker 2: maybe not everything is doom and gloom? Or do you

1591
01:45:12,439 --> 01:45:14,760
Speaker 2: want to shift strategies so you can push more doom

1592
01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:17,439
Speaker 2: and gloom? Which? What are we looking at here? Tony Katz,

1593
01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:20,400
Speaker 2: Tony Katz today, Good to be with you. It was

1594
01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:23,880
Speaker 2: a letter that he published and Bill Gates said too

1595
01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:27,639
Speaker 2: many resources are going toward climate change instead of issues

1596
01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:34,400
Speaker 2: like welfare and poverty. Oh oh, this is interesting. Gates

1597
01:45:34,479 --> 01:45:37,720
Speaker 2: is arguing there are too many resources focused on emissions

1598
01:45:37,720 --> 01:45:40,559
Speaker 2: and the environment and there should be more money going

1599
01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:44,719
Speaker 2: to improving lives and curbing disease and poverty, saying, quote

1600
01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:48,040
Speaker 2: this was an interview with Aaron Andrew Ross Sorkin quote

1601
01:45:48,160 --> 01:45:50,680
Speaker 2: climate is super important, but has to be considered in

1602
01:45:50,760 --> 01:45:54,320
Speaker 2: terms of overall human welfare. I didn't pick that position

1603
01:45:54,360 --> 01:45:56,439
Speaker 2: because everybody agrees with it.

1604
01:45:56,439 --> 01:45:58,840
Speaker 3: It's I think, intellectually.

1605
01:45:58,439 --> 01:45:59,240
Speaker 2: The right answer.

1606
01:45:59,320 --> 01:46:02,320
Speaker 3: So allow me to kind of cut through some of

1607
01:46:02,360 --> 01:46:03,360
Speaker 3: this for you.

1608
01:46:04,439 --> 01:46:08,839
Speaker 2: What Bill Gates is saying is we got to focus

1609
01:46:08,920 --> 01:46:12,120
Speaker 2: over here instead of over there. But if we focus

1610
01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:15,080
Speaker 2: over here, we could have more people do what we say.

1611
01:46:15,760 --> 01:46:18,799
Speaker 2: Now I'm asking you, am I off base there? Because

1612
01:46:18,920 --> 01:46:22,599
Speaker 2: I think I'm not off base there. This is Gates

1613
01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:25,680
Speaker 2: calling out the doomsday view of climate change, and you

1614
01:46:25,800 --> 01:46:28,519
Speaker 2: need to make a strategic pivot to focus on what

1615
01:46:28,680 --> 01:46:30,480
Speaker 2: has quote greatest impact.

1616
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:31,160
Speaker 3: On human welfare.

1617
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:32,960
Speaker 2: Let me give you a part two of this, maybe

1618
01:46:32,960 --> 01:46:36,280
Speaker 2: the place you went to first. We've tried to tell

1619
01:46:36,400 --> 01:46:39,280
Speaker 2: people the sky is falling about the environment, and they

1620
01:46:39,280 --> 01:46:41,479
Speaker 2: never believed us. And it turns out we're a bunch

1621
01:46:41,479 --> 01:46:43,920
Speaker 2: of liars and frauds. So now we have to find

1622
01:46:43,960 --> 01:46:47,719
Speaker 2: another way to gain control. Now see now you see,

1623
01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:50,720
Speaker 2: now you're with me. Now that's exactly what happened here.

1624
01:46:51,600 --> 01:46:54,439
Speaker 3: Wow. I just didn't know they'd be so honest about it.

1625
01:46:54,479 --> 01:46:54,639
Speaker 20: Now.

1626
01:46:54,640 --> 01:46:55,439
Speaker 2: I could be wrong.

1627
01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:59,720
Speaker 3: I could just be being, you know, a little cynical, but.

1628
01:46:59,640 --> 01:47:03,120
Speaker 2: I think I am. We'll follow the story find everything

1629
01:47:03,120 --> 01:47:05,880
Speaker 2: at Tony Kats dot com tomorrow. Everyone you'd be good

1630
01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:06,720
Speaker 2: now take care
