1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Dick Cheney passes away at the age of eighty four, 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: former Vice president of the United States, and is oh, 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: that's right. Today was the day that Marjorie Taylor Green 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,920 Speaker 1: went on the view. Oh gosh, I wonder what Tucker's 5 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:20,799 Speaker 1: best friend has to say for me. 6 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 2: I am unapologetically America first, and I'll do anything I 7 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 2: can to work hard to say. 8 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 3: You should become a Democrat, Marjorie. 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 4: Now know something. 10 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: I'll say this. I think both parties have failed. Yeah, 11 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 2: both parties have fails. 12 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: Worse. Yeah, he's worse. Sorry, you know that. 13 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 3: Now, I tell your favorite president. He goes against everything 14 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 3: you just said. Now, look, I like Donald Trump. I 15 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 3: fought for him to win. I'm very thankful for the 16 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 3: secure border. I'm friends with Lake and Riley's mother, and 17 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 3: we saw over twelve I serve on homeland security, over 18 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 3: twelve million people came across our border, over two million. 19 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: God aways. 20 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: These are terrorist cartels, all kinds of criminals. We don't 21 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 2: know where they are in this country, and that affects 22 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 2: all of us. That's not a political party. 23 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: For one thing. There's so many other things to go 24 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 3: after it. 25 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: Did you seem to disagree, Let me tell you that 26 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 1: one thing is a big thing. Did they have Marjorie 27 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: on because I should say represented Marjorie Taylor Green, I 28 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: should give the title because she's been pushing against the 29 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: Republican Party, Or did they have her on because they 30 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: realized they need more Republicans on? Were they amazed by 31 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: the fact that they could have this polite conversation or 32 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: were they angered by the fact that it wasn't more 33 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: at least from that clip bitter. I don't know. I 34 00:01:53,640 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: do not know. What I know is is that is 35 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: not a small deal. It's a large deal. And Marjorie 36 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: Taylor Green just ain't my person, even though in that 37 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: clip she certainly sounded at least normal and the best 38 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: was Joy behar Joy behars there's so many other things 39 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: to go after him on. You can't give anything. The 40 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: left won't give anything. The border's better because of Donald Trump. 41 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: End of story. They can't do it. They always have 42 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: to be angry all the time. Which brings us to 43 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: Sydney Sweeney because in an interview with I think it 44 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: was GQ, she's got her film Christie coming out, which 45 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: she may very well get nominated for an oscar. She 46 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: was talking about the American Eagle gens ad. So the 47 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: American Eagle jeans ad is that she's wearing a blue 48 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 1: jeans and jeans jacket, and the ad was Sidney Sweeney 49 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: has great jeens and so instead of recognizing that they're genes, 50 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: people thought it was about genetics. And oh, sure, the 51 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: blonde girl who's built like perfection. I think people are 52 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 1: plus and minus about her her face, right, it's definitely 53 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: unique about her body. No, No, everyone's in an agreement, 54 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: and I believe the agreement sounds like this. I'm not 55 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: saying that's totally accurate. Some people sound like this, Yeah, 56 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: but you know it's each their own. Can you believe 57 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: I get paid for this? She is asked about the 58 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: jeens ad and she's like, and the interview says, the 59 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: president the vice president spoke about the jeans ad. What 60 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: was that like? She says, it was surreal, you know, 61 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: talk about how Trump said, oh she's a registered Republican 62 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: now I love her at and what she said about 63 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: it was, you know. First, pushing back on the claim 64 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: that the ad heard American Eagles performance, she said, I 65 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: was aware of the numbers as what was going. So 66 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: when I saw all the headlines of instore visits were 67 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: down a certain percentage. None of it was true. It 68 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: was all made up. I know who I am, she says, 69 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: I know what value I have. I know what I value. 70 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: I should say the quote, right. I know that I'm 71 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: a kind person, I know that I love a lot, 72 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: and then I'm just excited to see what happens next. 73 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: And so I don't really let other people define who 74 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 1: I am, which is a nice way of saying, yeah, 75 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: I got paid and I'm gonna get paid again. Leave 76 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: me alone. People want to make her political. It's different 77 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: than celebrities who are desperate to be political, the Mark 78 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: Ruffaloes of the world, who think that because of their celebrity, 79 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: they should be listened to. Mark Ruffalo is a fool, 80 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: politically inept and incapable. I would debate him anytime, any place, anywhere. 81 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: It's not the Ruffalo wants to debate me. It's that 82 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 1: if we're going to be the people who engage, I 83 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: should be a guy totally willing to engage. What is 84 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: it that you value? What is it about this leftism 85 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: that you value? And how does this Trump hate help you. 86 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: I was never a fan of Barack Obama, I never 87 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: foamed at the mouth. I did discuss things like Obama 88 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: must not win. I did discuss why these elections matter. 89 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: I did discuss why you wouldn't want to fundamentally transform America. 90 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 1: I did discuss the failures of Obamacare and the very 91 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: idea that it creates slaves of doctors. I can still 92 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 1: back those things up. But I never thought for a 93 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: second he didn't love his kids. I have said about him, 94 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: and I've said about mischell Obama. I don't know about 95 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: them as parents. They weren't my parents. I have absolutely 96 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: no idea they might have been great parents. I don't 97 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: know about them as friends. They're not my friends. They 98 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: might have been great friends, they might have been terrific, 99 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: wonderful friends. But I'm talking about him as president's absolute 100 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: mess and scandal free all honey, let's not let's not 101 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 1: do that. But there are plenty of celebrities who want 102 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: to get political, which brings us to an interview that 103 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 1: was done in New York Times with Jennifer Lawrence, and 104 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 1: I thought this was a very very interesting take. Jennifer 105 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: Lawrence is discussing not being political. 106 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 4: Listen, celebrities do not make a difference whatsoever on who 107 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 4: people vote for, and so then what am I doing. 108 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 4: I don't want to start turning people off to films 109 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 4: and to art that could change consciousness or change the 110 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 4: world because they don't like my political opinions. 111 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: Let's take a moment to go back and listen to that, 112 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,239 Speaker 1: because I would argue that that requires a very serious 113 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: breakdown about what it is she said. Because as I 114 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: go through this this was from the New York at 115 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: Times and the clip was played over their Fox News. 116 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: As I go through this about Jennifer Lawrence, she comes 117 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: to the right place, but her logic seems faulty. So 118 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 1: let's listen to us first part. 119 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 4: Again, celebrities do not make a difference whatsoever. 120 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: And that is not true. The idea that people have 121 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 1: influenced do not make a difference is simply untrue. They 122 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: absolutely can make a difference. They can also be detrimental. 123 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: They can also try and make a difference and engage 124 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: in a detriment to themselves, be a detriment to themselves. 125 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: So this starts with a statement that is categorically false, 126 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: this idea that celebrities don't influence anything. 127 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 4: Celebrities do not make a difference, whatsoever on who people 128 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 4: vote for. 129 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: If Taylor Swift, if Selena Gomez said vote for it 130 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: would make a difference. Now you say to me Tony 131 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, when there was the whole thing with Donald Trump, 132 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: and Donald Trump said I hate Taylor Swift, and Taylor 133 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: Swift's sales went down and this went down. She lost 134 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: followers on social media, and it just proves that that's right. 135 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: If Taylor Swift said vote for Trump, everybody would be saying, 136 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, that's so great. It's gonna help so much. 137 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: You cannot make the statement that celebrities don't have influence. 138 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: This is just faulty logic. It's a flat out lie. 139 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:34,440 Speaker 1: It's untrue. It's untrue because you tried to influence the 140 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 1: election and you lost does not change the amount of influence, 141 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 1: because is it about specifically the vote and the lever 142 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: or is it about ideas and ideology that didn't get 143 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: carried on to the next election or to the next project, 144 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: or to the next subject. Celebrities don't have influences is 145 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 1: a misnomer. But then she follows. 146 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: Up and so then what am I doing? I don't 147 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 4: want to start turning people off to films and to 148 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 4: art that could change consciousness or change the world because 149 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 4: they don't like my political opinions. 150 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: I think that it's probably a misread to think that 151 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: your films change consciousness. I'm not insulting. I'm not trying 152 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: to insult Jennifer Lawrence at all. I don't know her, 153 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: and she's been in films I think are excellent, and 154 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: she's been in films I think are okay and impressive. 155 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: Is it has been her career and her skills set 156 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: at such a young age. I think it would be 157 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 1: more honest if you said, the only thing talking about 158 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: my politics has done has impacted the box office negatively, 159 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: And boy do I not want that? You know who 160 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: else doesn't want that? The key grip all the guys 161 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: who are below the line. You know who doesn't want 162 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: you talking about the politics? The stuntman, because all stunt people, 163 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: nearly to a person, are conservatives. Well, of course they are. 164 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 1: They put their lives on the line every day. It 165 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: is quite amazing they are conservatives. And when you melt off, 166 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: like what was the chick from was it Cinderella? Ziggler? 167 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: Rachel Ziggler, You're destroying them who've worked so hard on 168 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: the film. Now you're like, oh, they already got paid. Well, 169 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: it means maybe less films will get made because you're 170 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: turning people off to the movies. You want the movie 171 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: to be a success. You're on a successful film. It helps, 172 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: So they do want you to not they want you 173 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: to just act, just do the thing, be the box 174 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: office straw. Sure, but the idea that it's because you 175 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: don't want to keep people from seeing the brilliance of 176 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 1: your film. So you as a celebrity can't change hearts 177 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: and mind, but your film is going to do that. Well, 178 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: let me write the ballance of a nation I care 179 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: not who makes the laws. That's Plato, isn't it. Yeah, 180 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: I mean that's very true. Politics is downstream of culture. 181 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: It's one thousand percent accurate. So she gets to the 182 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: place where, you know what, I shouldn't talk about politics 183 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: because it's going to help the career, it's going to 184 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: help the box office. But how she got there seems 185 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: to be all jumbled up. Maybe I should just be 186 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: thankful that she got there to begin with. I think 187 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: it's a better place for you, But you shouldn't. If 188 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: you really want to speak out, you can just accept 189 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 1: that there might be a negative to it as well 190 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 1: as a positive, or a neither, or This is Tony 191 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: Katz today
