1
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,239
Speaker 1: And Windsor as he currently calls himself, the former Duke

2
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: of York, the former Prince Andrew is under arrest. He

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 1: was arrested this morning at his new home in Norfolk,

4
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: or at least where he's currently staying on the Sandringham

5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 1: estate in Norfolk, and he is under arrest on suspicion

6
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 1: of misconduct in public office.

7
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 2: I hope Okay. So this arrest is a huge deal

8
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 2: because it's not just about a scandal. It's about accountability.

9
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: No one is above the law, regardless of title or status.

10
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 2: We're going to talk about that more this morning. I'm

11
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 2: going to check you with Nicki Kelly as well, and

12
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: we'll ask her what the biggest story in the State

13
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 2: House is today, and we're going to discuss more of this.

14
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: Here's a little bit of what Nicki Kelly had to say,

15
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 2: and it is the Chicago Bears.

16
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 3: Chicago. Yeah, so it's definitely the sleeper issue of this session.

17
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,040
Speaker 3: And today we're gonna I think, get some more information

18
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 3: about more details in this stadium bill that's going to

19
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 3: come out, and we're hearing that the Bears might be

20
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:24,759
Speaker 3: winnowing down their interest impossible Indiana locations. Nothing firm yet,

21
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 3: but some movement.

22
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: So we'll get into that a little bit more coming

23
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 2: up at ten o'clock, and we'll also talk about the

24
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 2: state of things in regards to Iran. But back to

25
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: he is no longer Prince Andrew, brother of King Charles.

26
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 2: He's just now known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, which I

27
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: rested this morning on his sixty sixth birthday. Happy birthday

28
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: to him.

29
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 4: I just found that out this morning. I've known for

30
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 4: like listen in the last couple of weeks because I

31
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 4: follow what's going on in England and the United Kingdom,

32
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 4: and they kept referring to this guy Andrew mount Batten.

33
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, there must be a bunch of

34
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 4: these guys caught up in this Epstein scandal over there.

35
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 5: No, they were talking about Prince Andrew.

36
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 4: But since he lost his title as his Royal Majesty,

37
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 4: he can no longer be called prince, so they're using

38
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 4: a real name for him. So when you can use

39
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 4: those two interchangeably, Andrew Mountbatten and Prince Andrew are the

40
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 4: same person.

41
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 2: So he was taken into custody on suspicion of misconduct

42
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 2: in public office. That's a serious charge eight can carry

43
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: life in prison under the United Kingdom law, and the

44
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: arrest obviously ties to new revelations from the US Justice

45
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 2: Department release of millions of pages of documents connected to

46
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 2: convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. So this just points out

47
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 2: how much power and privilege should not protect the powerful.

48
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 4: And I think this is what we're starting to see here,

49
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 4: is at least for me, I'm getting a better understanding. Okay,

50
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 4: now I understand why these emails weren't sent out or what.

51
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 4: Now Why is taken fifteen years for us to get

52
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 4: this information? You're starting to get that. I mean, Prince

53
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 4: Andrew is an extraordinarily powerful person. I mean, I know

54
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 4: we think of them as this figurehead, and technically they

55
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 4: are in the United Kingdom, but that doesn't mean they

56
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 4: don't have a ton of close connections with powerful people

57
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 4: over the world, and they are very powerful. And of

58
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: course we saw the firing of the UK ambassador to

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 4: the US. So what we're seeing here is the United

60
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 4: Kingdom is seeing a lot more real action take place

61
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 4: from these Epstein file releases than what we're seeing here

62
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 4: in the United States. And there's some good reason for

63
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 4: that too. Keep in mind here. Most felonies in the

64
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 4: United States have a statute of limitations of seven years.

65
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 4: Jeffrey Epstein's been dead for about seven years, so all

66
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 4: of these things that might have been crimes longer than that. Yeah,

67
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 4: he was arrested in twenty nineteen. It's twenty twenty six.

68
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 4: So a lot of these crimes that they were committed

69
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 4: in the United States, the statute of limitations may have

70
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 4: expired on them. They don't have that in England. Here's

71
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 4: another interesting thing. He was arrested on suspicion of misconduct

72
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 4: and public office. It's what's called a common law offense

73
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 4: in the UK, so there's no like specific violation that

74
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: is defined. They leave that up to the judges to decide.

75
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 4: And so again a difference between the two judicial systems

76
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 4: is why we may be seeing some more action in

77
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 4: England than what we're seeing here. And here's another reason

78
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 4: why this is really serious for Prince Andrew, because it's

79
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 4: not only this, you know, unbecoming of a member of

80
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 4: the royal family. There are emails very similar to the

81
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 4: former UK ambassador of the US. There are emails where

82
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 4: it looks like Prince Andrew shared classified information with Jeffrey

83
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 4: Empstein British classified information. There was an email dated November

84
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 4: twenty ten that was forwarded to Andrew or it was

85
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 4: forwarded from Andrew to Epstein that talked about a confidential

86
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 4: brief on investment opportunities in Afghanistan and some other areas.

87
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 5: Also, there were.

88
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,839
Speaker 4: Emails that allegedly showed that he was sharing official visit

89
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 4: information from British dignitaries to Hong Kong, Vietnam and Singapore.

90
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 4: So you've kind of got this element of espionage in

91
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 4: here too that could become a big, big problem for

92
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 4: Prince Andrew.

93
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 2: So police are searching his properties in Berkshire and also Norfolk,

94
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 2: including his current residents in Sandrihama State. He's denied any wrongdoing,

95
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 2: of course, but this is unusual, one of the first

96
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 2: times his senior British royal figure has been arrested in

97
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,919
Speaker 2: modern history. I mean, you have to keep in mind

98
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 2: thousands of years. This is a very traditional institution. But

99
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: you've got King Charles and also Buckingham Palace saying that

100
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 2: they are supporting the investigation and they're going to respect

101
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: the legal process. King Charles just like get away from us. Yeah,

102
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: how toxic is this guy. It's his own brother, but

103
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: he's trying to save himself at this point.

104
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 5: Well, and finally somebody hasn't.

105
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 4: And by the way, Prince William and Princess Kate have

106
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 4: come out in support of King Charles's position on this.

107
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 4: So it looks like the rest of the royal family

108
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 4: has said, you know what, Andrew, you did some stuff

109
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 4: you shouldn't have been doing, and that's on you, and

110
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 4: you're on your own. Which is different because if you

111
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 4: know anything about you know, Queen Elizabeth and the way

112
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 4: she was the you know, Queen and ran the monarchy

113
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 4: for so long. She was so protective of making sure

114
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 4: that the British monarchy endured so that it could be

115
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 4: passed down to the next generation for hundreds of years

116
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 4: to come. Yet she enabled a lot of what Prince

117
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 4: Andrew did. She you know, paid part of the settlement

118
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: money that he did in this entire process. It's always

119
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 4: been known that Prince Andrew was her favorite. And so

120
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 4: you can sit here and talk about, oh, it's just

121
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 4: a mother's love for her son. Now this goes way

122
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 4: beyond this. Queen Elizabeth, it looks like enabled Prince Andrew

123
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 4: and isn't the person that held him accounta bill. And

124
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 4: it's so interesting because she defended the monarchy as queen

125
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 4: for so long, but it was it could be that

126
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 4: enabling of Prince Andrew that ends up bringing the monarchy down,

127
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 4: which is being discussed.

128
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, this moment shows the institutions when they lose

129
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 2: public trust to protect their own that's a real problem.

130
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 2: And so you got to hold these people accountable, not

131
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 2: protect them due process matters. But nobody is above the law.

132
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 2: It's not only in the UK that things are happening.

133
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 2: You've got in Norway, the former prime minister has been charged.

134
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 2: In France, a minister of culture was rated in Austria,

135
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 2: a banker was arrested in Sweden. You've got a senior

136
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 2: un official who resigned. In Dubai, You've got the DP

137
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 2: world chairman was replaced. So this global network, the cracks,

138
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 2: the cracks are showing.

139
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it kind of reminds me of and I'm

140
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: going to paraphrase this, but during the first Trump administration,

141
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 4: he talked about how he.

142
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 5: Said the quiet part out loud as it.

143
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 4: Relates to everything involved, not just you know, Jeffrey Epstein files.

144
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 4: But he basically said, hey, you know everything that you

145
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 4: think is happening with politicians and global leaders. You're exactly right,

146
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 4: it is happening, and it just doesn't justify, but it

147
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 4: gives you a better understanding of why it was so

148
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 4: difficult to get these documents released. These are worldwide powerful people,

149
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 4: and I'm sure that they were exerting their influence as

150
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 4: best they could to make sure these things never saw

151
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 4: the light of day. And thank goodness, we've at least

152
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 4: gotten a portion of them out there and in the public.

153
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 2: Yep, you got to quit sweeping this under the carpet.

154
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 2: Bring it out darkness into light. You're listening to ninety

155
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 2: three WYBC.

156
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 5: Iran will never rebuild a nuclin from there. Absolutely, that

157
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 5: place is under rock. That place is demolished.

158
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 3: We've collected additional to intelligence, we've also spoken to people

159
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 3: have seen the site and the site is obliterated.

160
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 4: CLEO sites who are obliterated, their very evil to clear sites.

161
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. If the rule we all hold that the Iran

162
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: nuclear capabilities were destroyed last summer, are people pushing Donald

163
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 2: Trump towards war with Iran? Despite his better instincts. He

164
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 2: understands it better than anybody. Bankrupt them rather than bomb them.

165
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 2: He did it in his first term, is he going

166
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 2: to do it again? I don't remember Donald Trump talking

167
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 2: about military action against Iran on the campaign trail. For

168
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 2: that matter, I don't remember him talking about Venezuela or Greenland.

169
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: And this is a disconnect from what he ran on

170
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 2: from what is happening.

171
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, he said he was going to be the president

172
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 4: of peace, and he's certainly been pretty active as far

173
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 4: as taking military action around the world goes. This is

174
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 4: Iran is not Venezuela. And I think everybody needs to

175
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 4: start preparing themselves because if Trump gives the go order

176
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 4: and some sort of military action takes place. So, for example,

177
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 4: Iran has nearly a million active duty military personnel. Venezuela

178
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 4: had around about one hundred thousand. Iran has tons of drones,

179
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 4: many more missiles, many more aircraft, a much stronger aircraft

180
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 4: defense system. And this is probably the scariest part out

181
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 4: of all of it. Iran has hypersonic missiles. Those are

182
00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 4: extraordinarily difficult to defend, even for a carrier battlegroup which

183
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,439
Speaker 4: has tons of defenses for the aircraft carrier. I think

184
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 4: everybody needs to kind of brace themselves for this. It

185
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 4: is if something happens in Iran, it's highly highly unlikely

186
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 4: that it is as clean as.

187
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,599
Speaker 5: What happened a couple of months ago in Venezuela.

188
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,120
Speaker 2: Donald Trump has said that a failure to do a

189
00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 2: deal could lead the US to strikes, and now the

190
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 2: United States has deployed more than fifty combat aircraft to

191
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,359
Speaker 2: the Middle East over the past twenty four hours, obviously

192
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 2: shows an increased US military presence, rising tensions. Iranians say

193
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: a deal on the terms the President is currently proposing

194
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: would be close to surrender for them, and they're not

195
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 2: going to do that.

196
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they may end up having to surrender at

197
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 4: some point anyway, if not politically then militarily. And we've

198
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 4: seen this build up and it is real. We've got

199
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 4: two new carrier battlegroups in the Middle East right now.

200
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 4: There have been reports and again it's I'm fascinated how

201
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 4: these things can be tracked, because you've got these flight

202
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 4: tracker apps that are available to anybody, and most are

203
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 4: used for commercial purposes, but you can kind of sometimes

204
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 4: see military aircraft. And there's been reports that some B

205
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 4: two bombers have left their bases in Missouri. There have

206
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 4: been very credible reports about dozens of C seventeen tanker

207
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 4: airplanes taking off of the Middle East. Those are those big,

208
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 4: huge refueling planes that the military uses to refuel the

209
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 4: fighter jets in midair. You don't send twenty or thirty

210
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 4: of those to the Middle East unless you've got something planned.

211
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 2: So, if we're really this close to military action against Iran,

212
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 2: it's partly because talking hasn't worked, and Iran keeps pushing

213
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:51,599
Speaker 2: the nuclear ambitions. America using strength to protect our interests

214
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 2: and our allies, and I think that is a key

215
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 2: component to all of this, our interests and our allies.

216
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 2: A lot of people wondering does this come down to oil?

217
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 2: How could this come down to oil? Well, US refineries

218
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,680
Speaker 2: were built with heavy oil, and we have a lot

219
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 2: of light shale oil. And Iran, ironically enough, has the

220
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 2: blending agent to move venezuelan sludge, so Iran has the

221
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 2: light crude. And is this more about chemistry than it

222
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:22,439
Speaker 2: is freedom?

223
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 4: I'm sure that's a factor. Look, I don't think any

224
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 4: sort of military action like this, you don't. You don't

225
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 4: take it for just one reason. Usually usually there's a

226
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 4: number of reasons. And I'm sure that the oil that

227
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 4: Iran has is part of it. I'm sure Israel is

228
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 4: a big part of that. And and you know that

229
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,079
Speaker 4: has that's Israel's really not being talked about a whole

230
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 4: lot with this. And there's talk of you know, rumors

231
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 4: or speculation potentially that Israel and America could be a

232
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 4: joint military operation. You know that if Iran gets attacked,

233
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 4: they're going to retaliate, certainly, not only against you know,

234
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 4: potential US targets, but also Israeli targets. But this is

235
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,040
Speaker 4: this is gonna be something that we're going to have

236
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 4: to deal with and have a real conversation on because

237
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 4: in some ways, look, is Iran a direct threat to

238
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 4: the United States right now? You could have made that

239
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 4: argument maybe five years ago, or even just a couple

240
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 4: of years ago, because of Iran's proxies, the Huthis, has

241
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 4: Ballah Hamas, those are terrorist organizations they have you know,

242
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 4: you know, attacked US interest overseas and US bases overseas previously. Okay,

243
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 4: you can sit here and say that those terrorist arms

244
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 4: of Iran certainly posed a legitimate threat to the United States,

245
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 4: but those have all been pretty much taken out. I

246
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 4: mean Israel has very much dismantled both Hesbola and Hamas.

247
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 4: The Houthis have been dramatically damaged. It is tough to

248
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 4: make the argument today that Iran is a direct threat

249
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 4: to the United States. You can say that they are

250
00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 4: a direct threat to our interest in the United States

251
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 4: and talk about Israel and our other allies, but that

252
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 4: brings up a completely different conversation.

253
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 2: So sources are saying that war or military strikes could

254
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 2: happen very soon, possibly within days or weeks. This if

255
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 2: the Iranian negotiations yield some major concessions. And I keep

256
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 2: hearing Saturday Saturday as a day, why not sooner the

257
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 2: Olympics come to play in this?

258
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I heard this talked about with some analysts yesterday.

259
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 5: It is certainly not a written.

260
00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 4: Rule, of course, but there has always been this unwritten

261
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 4: rule that while the Olympics are actively taking place, that

262
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 4: countries generally don't carry out military action because of that. Now,

263
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 4: Donald Trump usually throws any sort of cultural norm right out.

264
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 4: The windows are gone, and I'm gonna guess here that

265
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 4: he probably doesn't care whether there's an Olympics going on

266
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 4: or not. But it is a factor in this and

267
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 4: so there's been a lot of discussion. Hey, you know,

268
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 4: we could be hours or days away from a military

269
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 4: strike in Iran. The Olympics closing ceremonies air Sunday night

270
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 4: now because of the time change, that's really kind of

271
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 4: Sunday morning here in the United States.

272
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 5: It'll be interesting to see if.

273
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 4: That is a factor on the timing of an attack,

274
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 4: if an attack ends up actually taking place.

275
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 2: Jd Vance, a Vice President, was asked about this when

276
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 2: he was on Fox News with Martha McCollum, and this

277
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 2: is what he had to say about the situation with Iran.

278
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 6: Well, I'm obviously not going to make any announcements today.

279
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 6: I think the president has a lot of options. We

280
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,040
Speaker 6: do have a very powerful military. The President's shown a

281
00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 6: willingness to use it. He also has a remarkable diplomatic team.

282
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 6: He shown a willingness to use that too. And so

283
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 6: what the President has been very clear with the Iranians,

284
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 6: and actually I just talked to Steve Wookoff and Jared

285
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 6: Kushner this morning about some of their negotiations is the

286
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 6: United States has certain red lines. Our primary interest here

287
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 6: is we don't want Ran to get a nuclear weapon.

288
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 6: We don't want nuclear proliferation. If it Ran gets a

289
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 6: nuclear weapon, there are a lot of other regimes, some friendly,

290
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 6: some not so friendly, who would get nuclear weapons after them.

291
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 6: That would be a disaster for the American people because

292
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 6: then you have these crazy regimes all over the world

293
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 6: with the most dangerous weapons in the world. And that's

294
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 6: one of the things the President has said he's going

295
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 6: to prevent. Now, we would very much like, as the

296
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 6: President has said, to resolve this through a conversation and

297
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 6: a diplomatic negotiation. But the President has all options on

298
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 6: the t And you know, one thing about the negotiation

299
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 6: I will say this morning is you know, in some

300
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 6: ways it went well. They agreed to meet afterwards. But

301
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 6: in other way is it was very clear that the

302
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 6: President has set some red lines that the Iranians are

303
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 6: not yet willing to actually acknowledge and work through. So

304
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 6: we're going to keep on working it. But of course

305
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 6: the President reserves the ability to say when he thinks

306
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 6: that diplomacy has reached its natural end. We hope it

307
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 6: will get to that point, but if we do, that'll

308
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 6: be the president's call.

309
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 2: So Tom Cotton said that it's important to remember Iran

310
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 2: has never won a war but has never lost a negotiation.

311
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 2: Ted Kruz said that for decades, the regimes in Cuba, Venezuela,

312
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 2: and Iran have been dangerous, anti American and responsible for terrorism.

313
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting to note that he's lumping all

314
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 2: three of those countries into one segment. And then you've

315
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 2: got a report, and this was the headline from Daily Mail,

316
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: donald Trump stands on the brink of a major Middle

317
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 2: East war, as negotiations in Tehran collapsed over his nuclear

318
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 2: red line. If Donald Trump stands on the brink, don't

319
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 2: we all stand on the brink?

320
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 4: Certainly, And let's look, this is a serious situation, but

321
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 4: let's take a step back here.

322
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 5: We're not officially at war yet.

323
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 4: I'm sure the final decisions had not been made, but

324
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 4: this is the largest military build up the United States

325
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 4: has had in the Middle East since the Second Iraq

326
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 4: War in two thousand and three. It is certainly the

327
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 4: most dangerous situation that we face. But we also know

328
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 4: that Donald Trump will do anything to negotiate. I mean,

329
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 4: he had threatened to invade Greenland, and you know it

330
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 4: looked on paper like that could be happening at any minute.

331
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 4: Now he pulled back from the brink and negotiated a

332
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 4: deal there. We had the opposite in Venezuela, threatened Hugo

333
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 4: Chavez in Venezuela, and we are Maduro rather in Venezuela,

334
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 4: and we ended up going in there and taking him out.

335
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 4: So we know that Donald Trump throws everything on the

336
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 4: table when it comes to negotiation.

337
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 5: And that's where we are right now.

338
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:58,199
Speaker 2: You're listing to ninety three WIBC. We are keeping a

339
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 2: close SiGe on what's going on at the State in

340
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 2: regards to the Chicago Bears conversation.

341
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, the committee meeting, the House Ways and Means Committee

342
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 4: is a meeting right now. I'm actually watching their live

343
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 4: stream as we're kind of I'm peeking at it as

344
00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 4: the show's going on here this morning. They have completely

345
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 4: cleared every other thing to be discussed in this meeting.

346
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 4: They're only talking about this bill regarding the Bears. And

347
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 4: I think it's really interesting that how Speaker Houston is

348
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 4: sitting right by the microphone as people are speaking right now.

349
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 5: That's odd.

350
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 4: In other committee meetings that I've seen, you rarely see

351
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 4: Speaker Houston be this front and up center, and you know,

352
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 4: part of the conversation, but he certainly is for this one.

353
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 4: We don't have any breaking news on it. We don't

354
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 4: have any new information, but we are keeping a close.

355
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 5: Eye on it.

356
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 2: So Les Wexner is being grilled by Congress shows just

357
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: how deep the Epstein network went. But he is insisting

358
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 2: that he was deceived and he never knew about the crimes.

359
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 2: And I don't know, when you know somebody for that

360
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 2: amount of time and you turn over power of attorney

361
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 2: to them, you kind of should know they're a character

362
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: and know what they're all about.

363
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 4: So Wexner, I don't think did himself any favors. And

364
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 4: all eyes in the United States, at least regarding the

365
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 4: Epstein files are turning to this gentleman, Les Wexner, and

366
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 4: his comment yesterday that I was duped by Epstein and

367
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 4: Epstein is a world class comment reminds me exactly of

368
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 4: what AOC did to try and change the conversation.

369
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 5: We talked about this yesterday. AOC was in Munich.

370
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 4: She totally crapped the bed, was awful, looked like an

371
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 4: idiot on the world stage, and then she found a

372
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 4: friendly reporter at the New York Times that basically the

373
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 4: whole conversation was about well, AOC saying, I'm not really

374
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 4: running for president. I don't know why everybody's talking about that.

375
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 4: You know, everybody's not talking about you running for president.

376
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 4: They're talking about you being a bit fat idiot and less.

377
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: Wexner is doing something similar here. He's talking about how

378
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 4: he was duped and Epstein was a con man.

379
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 5: Nobody's talking about that.

380
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 4: We're talking about what you have done and what's potentially

381
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 4: incriminating you in all of these Epstein files.

382
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, his name appears many times in the DOJ's release

383
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 2: of the Epstein files. If he genuinely had no knowledge

384
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 2: of Epstein's abuse and cut ties long before Epstein's crimes

385
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,880
Speaker 2: came to light, then yeah, we should go with facts

386
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 2: and evidence, not just character assassination. However, but he here

387
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 2: and yeah, here's the big But his relationship dates back

388
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 2: to the nineteen eighties with Epstein. Epstein managed his finances,

389
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: he gave him power of attorney at one point. Wexner

390
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 2: now saying that he cut ties with Epstein nearly twenty

391
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 2: years ago. However, and there's the other butt. He did

392
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 2: visit Epstein's private island with his family, So did he

393
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 2: cut ties or not right? What was he duped or

394
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 2: did he make him power of attorney? Which one is it?

395
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:54,360
Speaker 4: What's the definition of cutting ties with somebody if you're

396
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 4: going to go to his private island after you supposedly

397
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:58,680
Speaker 4: said that you cut ties.

398
00:20:58,800 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 5: And I think it's important here.

399
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 4: So Les Wexner has not been charged with any crimes,

400
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 4: and I've talked about this a lot.

401
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 5: Look, there are two big, huge.

402
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 4: Problems with taking somebody to court based on the information

403
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 4: that we have.

404
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:11,719
Speaker 3: Now.

405
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 4: Now more information can come out, but the statute of

406
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,640
Speaker 4: limitations for most felonies is seven years. That has for

407
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 4: the most part expired. The other part is that all

408
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 4: of these most I should say, of these emails and

409
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 4: these files and the data we're getting from Epstein our

410
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 4: circumstantial evidence, and if you talk to an attorney, a

411
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 4: lot of these conversations in these emails are strictly hearsay.

412
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 4: So the vast majority of this, and again what we

413
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 4: have in our hands now is probably not admissible in

414
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 4: a court of law, and that all of that stinks.

415
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,240
Speaker 4: I want to see people go to jail. I want

416
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 4: to see people held accountable at the highest level for

417
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 4: the things that happened. But if we can't get that,

418
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 4: then we have to get the truth and get as

419
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 4: much information out there as possible and look for ways

420
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 4: to publicly shame these people. And Wexner is going to

421
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 4: have a lot of questions to answer. And so far

422
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 4: this you know, I was duped and he was a

423
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 4: world class con man, is about the worst defense I've

424
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 4: seen so far.

425
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 2: You have to wonder, with the arrest of Andrew mount Batten,

426
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,199
Speaker 2: Prince Andrew, is he going to sing? I mean, this

427
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 2: is a guy who's used to a cushy, easy life

428
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 2: and he is facing life in prison, and if he's

429
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: not going to want to do that, is.

430
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 5: He going to start singing like a bird right now?

431
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 4: I don't know how that would work, since we're talking

432
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 4: about two completely different countries and judicial systems, but I'm

433
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 4: sure that Keir Starmer, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom,

434
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 4: and Trump could have a conversation about it and see

435
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 4: what happens. But you're exactly right, and I think that's

436
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 4: a really great point. All of these people that we've

437
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:45,080
Speaker 4: talked about.

438
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 7: Are elitist, the elitists of the elite predatory class, absolutely filthy,

439
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 7: stinking rich, massive power structure, living cushy lives for.

440
00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 4: A long long time, and when that's those screws get

441
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 4: turned and the hammer get comes down on them. From

442
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 4: a legal perspective, I've got to believe that plenty of

443
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 4: them will start singing like a canary if it means

444
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 4: that they can get a lighter sentence.

445
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 2: Well. And it was also reported that Fergie had taken

446
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 2: money from Epstein and she is shutting down some of

447
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 2: her businesses.

448
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 5: Now you mean, so that's Sarah Ferguson.

449
00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 2: Sarah Ferguson his ex wife, Prince Andrews right, and then

450
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 2: their children will he start thinking, like a father, I

451
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 2: have to save this legacy for my children.

452
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, so his children Beatrice and unite Eugenie. Eugenie is

453
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 4: I'm sorry and then so you know, yeah, there's been

454
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 4: a lot of questions.

455
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:37,960
Speaker 5: They have been these.

456
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 4: Massive global world travelers, taking vacations and outings all.

457
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 5: Over the place.

458
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 4: By the way, they are officially not part of the monarchy.

459
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 4: Now I think they get a small stipend, but there's

460
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 4: been a lot of questions being brought about about how

461
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 4: his kids have had this incredible lavish lifestyle and where

462
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 4: did that money come from.

463
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 2: If aliens aliens exist, and statistically they probably do somewhere

464
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 2: in the universe. They're certainly not buzzing around cornfields, at

465
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 2: least not that has been reported in the mainstream media.

466
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 2: Universe insanely big odds are there probably is some microscopic

467
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,959
Speaker 2: life out there, maybe not little green guys that we're

468
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,960
Speaker 2: doing autopsies on, but who knows. Laura Trump told The

469
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 2: New York Post that President Trump is soon going to

470
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 2: reveal that UFOs and extraterrestrial life does exist in the world.

471
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 8: We've kind of asked my father in law about this

472
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 8: because we're like, well, what do you know, because Miranda,

473
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 8: we all want to know about the UFOs, we all

474
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,199
Speaker 8: want to know what's going on. And he played a

475
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 8: little koy with us, and so that of course led

476
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 8: us to believe Eric and I were like, oh my gosh,

477
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 8: if he won't even like fully tell us, maybe there's

478
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,400
Speaker 8: more to it. And then I have just heard kind

479
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 8: of around that I think he's actually said.

480
00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 2: I think my father in law's actually.

481
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 8: Said it, that there is some speech that he has

482
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 8: that I guess at the right time, and I don't

483
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 8: know when the right time is, he's gonna break out

484
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 8: and talk about, and it has to do with maybe

485
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 8: some sort of extraterrestrial life so to speak.

486
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,439
Speaker 2: Okay, so what war with Iran? Potentially, You've got the

487
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,160
Speaker 2: Epstein files, You've got this huge lawsuit with Meta.

488
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 5: Going on, and now aliens, Hey, why not give us

489
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 5: one more?

490
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 4: Can you just give me two seconds to get my

491
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 4: head above water?

492
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 5: Oka?

493
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,360
Speaker 2: So if advanced aliens are out there and they haven't

494
00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,239
Speaker 2: contacted us, that probably says more about us than it

495
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,919
Speaker 2: does about them. Why aren't they come? Why are they

496
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 2: ghosting us?

497
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 4: You know, I've got some alien fatigue, So excuse me

498
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 4: about this. But I remember back when Clinton was in

499
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 4: office in the nineties and there was you know, this

500
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 4: massive press conference and he talked about how we have

501
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 4: discovered what we think are microbial fossils on rocks that

502
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 4: we found on Mars, and the news media you know, lit.

503
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 5: Up and everybody was talking about it. And then later

504
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 5: it was like, yeah, that's probably not what those were.

505
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,479
Speaker 4: And then during COVID there was this big, you know,

506
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 4: congressional hearing and it came out and you had these

507
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 4: people that were you know, very highly respected that said, oh, yeah,

508
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,120
Speaker 4: aliens exist, and we were like, you know what, We're

509
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,720
Speaker 4: in the middle of a worldwide lockdown right now. We

510
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 4: got problems. Just last week Obama was asked about aliens,

511
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 4: and now you've got Laura Trump talking about aliens. I'm

512
00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 4: gonna need a flying saucer to land on the White

513
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 4: House lawn and little Green men to walk out before

514
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 4: I'm going to take any of this seriously anymore. It

515
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 4: feels like, you know, this is just the boy who

516
00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 4: cried wolf again and again and again and again.

517
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 2: Deflection. We don't want to talk about anything serious, Let's

518
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 2: talk about aliens. Either we're not very interested interesting to aliens,

519
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 2: or we're not ready yet. Of course. Carolyn Levett, White

520
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 2: House Press Secretary, was asked about this prepared speech, and

521
00:26:58,040 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 2: here's what she had to say.

522
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,920
Speaker 6: That the President has a prepared speech on this issue

523
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 6: that he prepares to deliver at the right time. Is

524
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 6: that true?

525
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 4: And does the Trump administration believe aliens are real?

526
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:10,680
Speaker 3: Well?

527
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 9: Speech on aliens would be news to me. That sounds

528
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 9: very exciting, though I'll have to check in with our

529
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,040
Speaker 9: speech writing team, and that would be a great interest

530
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 9: to me personally. And I'm sure all of you in

531
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 9: this room and apparently former President Obama too, so we'll

532
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 9: keep you posted on that.

533
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 2: She stayed calm, she kind of laughed it off, she

534
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 2: didn't panic. I thought that was a pretty good response

535
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 2: from her.

536
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, what are you going to say in this situation?

537
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,679
Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, whatever information that the United States government

538
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 4: does have in regards to aliens is certainly highly classified,

539
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 4: and they're not going to just let it out based

540
00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 4: on some question in a White House press meeting. I

541
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 4: think that's probably about the best answer that she could

542
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:49,640
Speaker 4: give at this point.

543
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, many people are saying, yeah, if aliens are real

544
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: and they do have that information, they're just going to

545
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,159
Speaker 2: hold on to that until they really really need a

546
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 2: big distraction. But even if it are, people going to

547
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 2: pay attention.

548
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 4: Well, and there's different aliens, there's different levels about this too.

549
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 4: I mean, like I talked about with Clinton in the nineties, Oh,

550
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 4: we might have found, you know, fossilized bacteria from another planet.

551
00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 5: That's kind of really low level stuff. And even if we.

552
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 4: Did find some sort of amoeba or bacteria or something

553
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 4: like that on another planet, at this point in time,

554
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 4: I think most of the country would be like, Yeah,

555
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,280
Speaker 4: that's cool what we're talking about. And I think when

556
00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 4: most people talk about when they talk about aliens are

557
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 4: intelligent life and a civilization that is dramatically more advanced

558
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 4: than us and has figured out interstyle and interstellar travel

559
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 4: and you know whatever else secrets and mysteries of the universe.

560
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 2: So the Canadian curling controversy continues to simmerar getters at

561
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 2: the Olympics, and you also have alpine skier Mikayla Schiffrin

562
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 2: giving a very personal speech after she won a gold medal.

563
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 2: We'll get to that coming up. It is ninety three

564
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 2: WIBC clear rules in strong refereeing matter, even when it's

565
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 2: a low profile sport. How many different sporting events have

566
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 2: you watched and blamed it on the officials.

567
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 5: All of the bad call, bad call.

568
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 2: Oh, don't feel bad for the referee. No, that person

569
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,479
Speaker 2: signed up for that job. They got to know the rules,

570
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: They got to know how to have command of what

571
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 2: they're doing and make the right call. And you can't

572
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 2: let fans act like umpires because that just fuels the

573
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 2: chaos and the bad blood between fair play. We're talking

574
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 2: about curling. By the way, there's been some drama, especially

575
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 2: over the Canadian team. There's been this really main rule

576
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,240
Speaker 2: dispute over the double touching.

577
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, so curling which seems to get a lot of

578
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 4: traction in the media and social media every four years

579
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 4: in the Winter Olympics, and I love it too, but

580
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 4: there is kind of a scandal brewing. Usually the scandals

581
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 4: happen in figure skating because you've got judges that kind

582
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 4: of randomly give out scores that they may not be

583
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 4: able to sport random well, but there's a little bit

584
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 4: more flexibility. It's not like, you know, you land that

585
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 4: jump in it equals you know, one point or something

586
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 4: like that. You've got a sport like curling where there

587
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 4: is a points system used. But this is the big

588
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,560
Speaker 4: controversy is that Canada has been accused.

589
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 5: Of the double tap in curling.

590
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,959
Speaker 4: So once you let go of the rock, you're not

591
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 4: supposed to touch it again. But what Canada has been doing

592
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 4: they let go of the rock and then they let

593
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 4: their little finger kind of go down to the rock

594
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 4: and then just give.

595
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 5: It a little extra push it. What's interesting about this

596
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 5: is that Sweden has.

597
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 4: Kind of been aware that Canon might have been doing

598
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 4: this for a long time, and they set up a

599
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 4: special camera that Canada wasn't aware of and they trained

600
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 4: it right on that line and focused it in real

601
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 4: tight and you can absolutely look. I'm no curling expert.

602
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 4: I love watching it, but I still can't figure out

603
00:30:58,320 --> 00:30:59,960
Speaker 4: how the points are working. You know, how to score

604
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 4: points in the whole point system is still confusing to me.

605
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 4: So I'm the last person to be an expert on this,

606
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 4: but you can clearly see that Canadian player let go

607
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 4: of the handle and then give that rock another extra push.

608
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 2: So you've got World Curling, which is the sports governing body,

609
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 2: and they're trying to balance the traditional self policing with

610
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 2: calls for clearer officiating. Now here's what is happening though,

611
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 2: because there is this controversy surrounding this Canadian double touch.

612
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 2: This is involving betting, lots of online discussion, and what

613
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 2: it has done is it's boosted the interest in the sport.

614
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 5: Which I was shocked that you call your own foul

615
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 5: intentional all along.

616
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 2: They did this on purpose to draw more attention to him.

617
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,479
Speaker 5: But I didn't know. You didn't have referees there. You

618
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 5: call your own file.

619
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 4: Well, this is like a pickup game on a city

620
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 4: basketball court where you call your own fouls.

621
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 5: This is the Olympics.

622
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,280
Speaker 4: We don't have some official there watch and keeping an eye.

623
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,960
