WEBVTT - Episode 4664: Tony Katz Today Hour 1 - 08/12/26 0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:09.119 Live from Ball Heart Blind and the Crossroads of America. 0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:40.920 It's Tony Katz Today. I'm taking a look at these primaries. 0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:44.080 I'm taking a look. 0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:52.040 At what happened in Wisconsin, and I am saying to myself, 0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:57.720 my gosh, can nobody get any polling right? Now? It 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.760 wasn't true in all places. They certainly got pulling right 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:08.200 in for example, Wisconsin. No, I'm sorry Minnesota, but they 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:16.760 absolutely got it wrong, horrifically, horrifically wrong in Wisconsin. So 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.800 much so that we have to ask ourselves if we're 0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:22.840 gonna believe anything they have to say. Tony Katz, Tony 0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:26.200 Katz Today and absolute pleasure, guys, glad that you are 0:01:26.240 --> 0:01:29.920 here live streaming as we do on the YouTube's and 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:33.959 on Rumble. Just go to Tony Kat's, look for the channel 0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:36.520 Tony Kats Today, and make it happen on the Twitter 0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:41.240 ex Tony Katz and Facebook, Tony Kats Radio. Now, some 0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:45.279 things weren't a surprise, right, Peggy Flanagan winning the Senate 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.960 primary for the Democrats in Minnesota or Andree Craig is 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:50.640 not a surprise. They went with the lieutenant governor. She 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:53.440 had name recognition. Of course, this is the one who says, 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:55.840 protect trans kids. We're wearing a T shirt that has 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:58.080 a knife on it, right, says protect trans kids, and 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.160 it's got the knife on it, because she's going to 0:02:00.240 --> 0:02:02.560 be really tough. If you don't protect those trans kids. 0:02:02.880 --> 0:02:05.280 My gosh, if you don't let us mutilate children, I'm 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.640 going to be so angry with you. Meanwhile, in Connecticut, 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:14.760 they just stopped allowing that procedure to take place. They said, 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:19.240 no more mutilating children, which is of course the right response. 0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.640 And we should go a step further that the doctors 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:26.120 who engage in child mutilation should be questioned. No, no, no, no, 0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:29.920 no no. This isn't a medical practice we find okay, 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.440 top surgery, bottom surgery, chemical castration, all of it has 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:39.720 to go. Children are not adults and we don't allow 0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.919 them to define themselves in this way or mutilate themselves 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.080 this way. And anybody who wants to give children agency 0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:48.880 is out of their heads and is a danger to 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:52.200 those children. Show me the person who wants to give 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:54.600 a child agency, and I will show you the person 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:57.080 who wants to abuse that child. I said it, I 0:02:57.200 --> 0:02:59.760 meant it, you can quote me. I'm cool with it. 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:05.400 Peggy Flanagin wins that. But this is this is Minnesota. 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:10.520 This is the land of the DFL. And with the 0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:18.160 DFL in Minnesota, being radically left is part of their charm. 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:22.600 And when I say charm, I'm not referring to any 0:03:22.639 --> 0:03:27.080 kind of charm whatsoever whatsoever. DFL, Democratic Farmer Labor, this 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:32.720 is their party. They've always been more left. That's that's 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.800 who they are. I mean, this is the place that 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:40.880 elects Tim Walls. And if Tim Walls hadn't been basically 0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.640 thrown to the side by videos by Nick Shirley and 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:47.640 reporting by City Journal and others, well then he'd be running. 0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.120 But he knew it was gonna be too much because 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:54.280 you know, he knew about the fraud and didn't tell nobody. Wait, 0:03:54.400 --> 0:03:58.440 that's just me, that's my That's what I suspect. Innocent 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:04.760 until proven guilty. So she wins, and Amy Klobachar is 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:09.880 now the Democrats nominee to be governor. Amy Klobachar, you 0:04:09.920 --> 0:04:12.880 know who never found a staple or she didn't love. 0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:17.839 She's an odd bird. Something about her. I've always like, 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.800 I think I've met her once. I forget where we 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:25.520 were where I some some Caucus. Maybe we were in Iowa, 0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.000 and I thought she was mostly lovely. You know, I 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:31.320 met w Washerman Schultz. I thought she was mostly lovely. 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.440 Her politics are sinning against nature, but her I thought 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:36.719 she was lovely. Clobachar I always thought somewhere in her 0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.960 was the capacity to be normal, and she just never 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:46.480 just never embraced that that idea. That's Minnesota. Then you 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:51.240 had South Carolina. South Carolina was interesting. South Carolina was 0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:55.960 interesting because this was the special right, this was about 0:04:56.040 --> 0:05:00.680 replacing the late Senator Lindsey Graham. So you take a 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:02.280 look at the data, and you take a look at 0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:07.240 the map. The map is interesting. So you had Darlene 0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:10.599 Graham Nardonne, who's the sister. You had Ralph Norman. You 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:15.000 have Russell Fry Russell Norman, I'm sorry, Ralph Norman, the congressman. 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:22.680 We know that Darlene, she was picked to replace Lindsey 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.480 Graham to finish out his term. Right, so she's the Senator, 0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:32.120 But we also know that Lindsay Graham was on the 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:36.640 ballot for re election. So they're having a special election 0:05:36.760 --> 0:05:38.800 to determine who will be on the ballot for the 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:44.560 reelection for November. Right, the midterm. In this special election, 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:48.280 Darlene Graham comes in first, but she only gets thirty 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:51.320 two point seven percent of the vote. Ralph Norman comes 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:53.800 in second with twenty four point six percent. Russell Fry 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:56.960 in third with nineteen point six percent. Top two vote 0:05:56.960 --> 0:06:01.120 getters Graham and Norman, they move on to a runoff 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.960 on August twenty fifth to determine who will be on 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:10.240 the ballot November three. That's has not much time to 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:14.480 run for office. They both at least can say that 0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:16.400 they have some name. 0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:16.640 I D. 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:21.120 Graham as a congressman, I'm sorry, Norman as a congressman, 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:28.040 Graham as Graham. You take a look at the map 0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:32.840 and you see green, red, and kind of purple blue. 0:06:33.440 --> 0:06:37.560 The green was Ralph Norman, the red is Darlene Graham, 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:41.960 and the blue is Russell Frye, and it segments out 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:47.279 to where they're located. Ralph Norman wins the north, Russell 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:51.160 Frye wins the east, and Darlene Graham wins the rest. 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:58.599 So Columbia and Charleston go for Graham. Now the question 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.080 before us is going to be what happens to Russell 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:05.239 fry Voters sixty five seven and fourteen of them who 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:09.560 absolutely could tip the scales in this election. What we 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:13.600 know about them is that they definitely didn't vote for 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:18.200 Darlen Graham. So does that mean that they are opposed 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:20.640 to Darlene Graham? To see this, Ah, I'm not a 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:24.160 South Carolina expert, and neither of you. This gets really interesting. 0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:29.840 A special election in two weeks, This to me is 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:34.679 absolutely a bourbon and popcorn event. Just don't get yourself 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.000 too wrapped up in it. Just watch it and see 0:07:37.040 --> 0:07:42.680 what happens. This is really interesting. I mean, the circumstance 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:46.680 is odd. A senator dies, a sister is filling the term, 0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:49.840 the sisters running to replace him on the ballot, and 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.840 does not get the overwhelming support, and there is a 0:07:52.960 --> 0:08:00.760 spoiler section of the state at play. Honestly, I'm just 0:08:01.000 --> 0:08:03.960 that's my own kind of curios I'm very interested in 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:10.840 what happens here. But the story, kids, the story is Wisconsin. 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:17.800 The Wisconsin primary is the most surreal thing in the world. 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:19.840 We're talking about the Democrats here. We already knew that 0:08:19.880 --> 0:08:22.160 Tom Tiffany was going to be the Republican and he 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:28.000 will go up against David Crowley, And you're like, excuse me, Tony, Tony, Tony, 0:08:28.160 --> 0:08:32.000 mister Katz, sir you with the hair and the great stuff. 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.440 Excuse me. That's supposed to be Francesca Hung, right, the 0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:40.200 crazed socialist, the one who wants to cancel Thanksgiving. She's 0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.280 supposed to be the winner here. Everybody knows that. The 0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:47.160 poll said, so, that's right. The poll said, so you 0:08:47.360 --> 0:08:51.640 bet your sweet but bippi, the poll said so. Check 0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:56.800 out these numbers. This was the polling. This is from RealClearPolitics, 0:08:56.840 --> 0:09:02.040 realclearpolling dot com. These were the numbers. If you take 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:08.360 a look at the last five polls now where it 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.880 says current results, that's the win for Crowley. The last 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:18.679 five has Francesca Hung, this commy weirdo freak show up 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:24.760 by double digits plus eleven plus thirteen plus twenty plus 0:09:24.840 --> 0:09:27.520 twenty two plus eighteen. 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:36.040 Plus twenty two. Holy crop. That should be a blowout. 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:42.200 That should be remarkable. She should have walked away with 0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:50.440 this with everything in her Nope. David Crowley gets three 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:54.400 hundred and fifteen two hundred and thirty five votes. Francesca 0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:57.160 Hung gets three hundred and eleven four hundred and seventy 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:01.760 five votes, thirty nine point eight one percent versus thirty 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:03.560 nine point thirty three percent. 0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:10.000 He wins by half a percent. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm 0:10:10.040 --> 0:10:15.480 going to ask you a very specific question. The question 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:23.880 goes as follows, How in the world, How in the 0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:28.960 world am I supposed to in any way trust polling? 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.040 If they can say someone is leading by twenty two 0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:40.640 points and then they lose by half a point, how 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:44.080 do I do that? Can someone work me through that? 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:49.680 As I like my cigar here, how do you lead 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.079 by twenty two points and then lose by half a point? 0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:58.720 I put forth to you that that's impossible. That can't happen. 0:11:00.440 --> 0:11:04.680 Something has to be wrong. Now you say to me, Tony, 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:09.120 it's possible for posters to make a mistake. I wholeheartedly agree. 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:13.440 It is not an exact science, and it is possible 0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:21.439 for posters to make a mistake. One thousand percent true, 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:26.600 ten thousand percent true. Can I take a look for 0:11:26.640 --> 0:11:31.880 a moment at the race between abdul elsa Ed and 0:11:34.960 --> 0:11:38.800 what's her name? Oh, the one who sounds like Marge Simpson. Oh, 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:43.640 you know her, you know her. You know who I'm 0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:48.800 talking about. Everybody knows who I'm talking about. She's a 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:50.880 Oh that's right. It's her. 0:11:51.240 --> 0:11:53.840 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy, 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:56.640 and a little bit of sicket to them. 0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:01.320 Haley Stevens, Haley, steph I forgot Stevens, but we're never 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:02.360 gonna forget this. 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.160 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy, 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:09.160 and a little bit of sicket to them. 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:13.760 Good lord, that's so good. If I take a look 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:22.560 at the polling from that race, you know what I get. 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:30.760 I get Abdullah al saiaed up by double digits. That's 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:34.520 what I get. I get Elsai ed up by double digits. 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:38.000 He was up, if my math is correct, thirteen and 0:12:38.000 --> 0:12:41.680 a half points in the overall. He won by a percent. 0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:47.240 He won by one percent. He was up by thirteen 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:53.600 point five. Now I have Francesca Hong up twenty two 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.600 points in some polls. If I average it all together, 0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:59.680 could we at least say she's up fifteen double digits, 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:04.560 clear double digits, fifteen points. Look at the dang numbers. 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:11.079 She loses by half a point. How do you miss 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:17.960 that greatly? This is my question, What the hell is 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:23.240 going on? I don't believe it is possible to miss 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:26.680 this greatly. I've been trying to figure out where the 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:30.200 issue is. There could be an issue in methodology, for sure, 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.000 there could be an issue in methodology. But now there's 0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:36.520 an issue in Michigan, and now there's an issue in Wisconsin. 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:44.160 Huh okay, all same polling outfits. They could have the 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:53.240 same methodology of methodology issue. Absolutely, it could be that 0:13:53.320 --> 0:14:00.280 the pollsters. It could be that the pollsters they yeah, 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:06.400 they're asking the wrong questions because they don't quite understand 0:14:08.440 --> 0:14:13.400 what this new voter is like. They don't understand this party, 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:18.000 they don't understand how they act and interact. Could be 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:25.400 that they're asking the wrong people methodology, wrong questions, ask 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:30.360 to the wrong people. It's all possible. Or all of 0:14:30.400 --> 0:14:32.840 these outfits are putting their thumb on the scale to 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:36.200 try and create a certain advantage. Now that one is 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:41.120 the most conspiratorial. That's a hard one for me to 0:14:41.240 --> 0:14:45.000 buy into. Although everything is possible, hard one for me 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:47.840 to buy into. I'm not saying it couldn't happen. I'm 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:50.720 just saying it's a hard one for me to buy into. Seriously, 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:56.680 that's I'm not I'm not I'm not there for them. 0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:02.280 What I can tell you you guys, is, as we 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:07.440 go forward, into the midterms. I will not believe a 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:12.160 single pole out of Michigan or Wisconsin, not a one. 0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:16.200 Won't believe it for a second, Absolutely not. They could 0:15:16.240 --> 0:15:18.280 talk to me about how well Abdul say Ed is 0:15:18.320 --> 0:15:21.440 doing in Michigan and I will say, I'm sorry. They 0:15:21.480 --> 0:15:23.280 had him up by thirteen and a half points and 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:26.960 he won by a percent. Nope, not buying it. Not 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:30.800 buying it. And I don't think you should buy it either. Well, Tony, 0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:32.440 doesn't this fit into your theory that you should never 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:36.920 believe any pole. My theory for years is never believed 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:40.520 just one pole. Never look at one pole and say, well, 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:43.920 that's fact. It's not fact. It's a snapshot in time 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:47.280 that doesn't tell any story outside of it. It has 0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:51.600 zero bearing on reality. The fact of politicos and people 0:15:51.680 --> 0:15:54.360 desperate to fill colum inches will talk about it at 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:57.120 nauseum on cable news and other places. Well, that's because 0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:58.880 they have nothing else to say. They have nothing in 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:02.120 their minds. They are empty vessels. But that's enough about 0:16:02.200 --> 0:16:07.920 Jim Acosta. Never believe just one poll. What these poles 0:16:07.920 --> 0:16:11.960 have shown me is that I can't trust anything. Some 0:16:12.000 --> 0:16:19.000 people want to argue that what happened in in Wisconsin 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:25.480 was actually a snowjob. What happened there is that they 0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:29.720 knew that Francesca Hang was going to get ripped apart, 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:35.320 so the Democratic Party did some finagling and some flubbing 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:40.640 to make sure that she lost. Great conspiracy theory, Democrats 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.760 going after Democrats to keep Democrats from getting the person 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:46.200 they voted for. I mean, that's how we got Kamala 0:16:46.200 --> 0:16:53.080 Harris as a nominee. We've seen this before. The story 0:16:53.120 --> 0:16:54.640 here isn't even who won, you know, So I'm not 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.000 talking about David Crowley and Wisconsin at all in that 0:16:57.120 --> 0:17:00.920 race against Tom Tiffany. I'm talking about what they told us. 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:04.880 None of it makes sense and none of it lines up. 0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:08.320 And that's the whole story, and we got to find 0:17:08.320 --> 0:17:12.360 out why. That's my plan. Keep it here. I'm Tony 0:17:12.440 --> 0:17:14.440 Katz and this is Tony Katz Today. There was a 0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:17.000 question the other day of where the heck has Mark 0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:22.760 Rubio been? And the answer is, Marco Rubio is doing 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.879 a podcast. No, he's not hosting a podcast. He was 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:29.040 on Katie Miller's show, Tony Katz, Tony Katz Today, Good 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.520 to be with you. Katie Miller is the lovely person. 0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:36.280 She was doing work in the first Trump administration. I 0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.600 got to talk to her then and at an event 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:42.600 at the White House. She was beyond lovely. She is 0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:44.760 the wife of Stephen Miller. I think they were just 0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:48.760 dating at the time. Absolutely lovely person. When I learned 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:53.400 that Katie Miller had dated Eric Swallwell back in the day, 0:17:53.440 --> 0:17:56.320 I was like, I don't even know how to process that. 0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:57.639 And I learned that the other day, I was like, 0:17:57.680 --> 0:18:01.520 my gosh, who knew. So he does this this podcast 0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:05.000 and because of connection, she gets access to everybody. And 0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:08.600 one of the people she gets access to is the 0:18:08.800 --> 0:18:13.600 Secretary of State, Marco Rubio and his wife. And this 0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:17.199 is the conversation I did. Hold on a second, let 0:18:17.240 --> 0:18:19.919 me make sure that you get the conversation. Listen. 0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:25.200 I did at one time, maybe four or five years ago, 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:27.320 I tried this thing called keto. You've heard of it, yes, 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:30.520 And you just eat all this protein and so you 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:34.000 go through this massive withdrawal from sugar and carbohydrates for 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:37.320 the first seventy two hours. It was a near psychotic event. 0:18:39.240 --> 0:18:40.720 I did this in this job, I would be the 0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:43.640 mister president. We must bomb you know, you know Paraguay, 0:18:43.720 --> 0:18:45.480 and it's like why, I don't know, I'm just really mad. 0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:48.840 At having it. Okay, he's sitting next to his wife 0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:53.200 having this conversation about Keto. You might look at that 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:59.080 and say whatever, I don't care. Every time there is 0:18:59.280 --> 0:19:04.439 another photo of Marco Rubio sitting there in the ovo, 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:06.560 and it gets AI manipulated to put him into some 0:19:06.640 --> 0:19:08.880 kind of costume or some kind of thing like, Oh, 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:11.320 he's gonna have to go run this country today. Oh, 0:19:11.359 --> 0:19:13.760 he's gonna have to take on that job today. Everything 0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:19.200 like this builds him as a presidential candidate you can 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:23.080 connect with in ways that jd Vance does not come 0:19:23.240 --> 0:19:25.679 close to. Now. You might disagree on that, you may 0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:27.920 want Jadvance or Marco Rubio we get a degree or 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:32.240 disagree about that, but when it comes to the presentation, 0:19:32.720 --> 0:19:39.159 the likability, the connection, he's off the charts. This is 0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:44.040 Tony Katz today. I despise a flock camera as much 0:19:44.080 --> 0:19:50.240 as anybody. The flock cameras are a problem. And even 0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:53.880 if they're not flock and they belong to another company, 0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:58.000 all of this is a problem. Tony Katz. Tony Katz today, 0:19:58.160 --> 0:20:00.800 so good to be with you, guys, Live streaming YouTube Rumble. 0:20:01.119 --> 0:20:03.960 Come check it out. Look for Tony Kats Today and 0:20:04.200 --> 0:20:10.040 on Twitter x Tony Kats, Facebook, Tonycats Radio. What's happening 0:20:11.200 --> 0:20:14.760 is that cities are saying we need to protect the 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:19.240 people dun du du, and so they get these cameras 0:20:19.480 --> 0:20:25.280 from a company called flock Flock. And what these cameras 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:28.000 do is you can go to flocksafety dot com and 0:20:28.080 --> 0:20:30.879 learn about them. I own no part of this, and 0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:33.880 I would say right now to my financial people who 0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:37.879 I know are listening, if I am anywhere in a 0:20:37.960 --> 0:20:42.200 fund that is even close to owning anything owned by flock, 0:20:42.600 --> 0:20:45.119 get me out of it right now. I am. I 0:20:45.760 --> 0:20:50.040 don't care, don't care, don't care, don't care. Not supporting 0:20:50.119 --> 0:20:56.320 this nonsense. The flock cameras connect communities, businesses, and public 0:20:56.359 --> 0:20:59.359 safety so incidents can be understood clearly in decisions can 0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:04.439 be made on acts. Flock cameras surveil your every movement 0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:07.680 in a city so the police can monitor you. Now, 0:21:07.720 --> 0:21:13.000 police will disagree with my assessment. I can appreciate that 0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:16.280 they may disagree. It doesn't change the fact that I'm right, 0:21:16.400 --> 0:21:18.920 and I will debate this with any police officer anywhere, 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:23.760 any sheriff anywhere, any law enforcement anywhere, any elected official anywhere. 0:21:24.880 --> 0:21:28.960 This is about surveillance of the people, and government has 0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:31.960 no right to do that. The argument will come back 0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:35.440 that Tony, you know you are not guaranteed privacy in 0:21:35.480 --> 0:21:41.040 public spaces. I accept this. I absolutely agree with you. You 0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:44.560 are ten bajillion percent correct. When you are in a 0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:48.359 public space, when you're walking down the street, you don't 0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:56.439 have any expectation of privacy. I agree. I don't have 0:21:56.520 --> 0:22:01.480 privacy from the public. That is not an invitation for 0:22:01.560 --> 0:22:06.320 the government to track my whereabouts, track my car, track 0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:08.800 where I drive to, track where I walk into, track, 0:22:08.880 --> 0:22:10.720 where I walk out of track, who I talk to. 0:22:11.080 --> 0:22:13.800 You want to track me, you get a warrants kitten. 0:22:15.000 --> 0:22:18.240 I am not interested in what you're trying to get done. 0:22:18.280 --> 0:22:21.159 I'm interested in my ability to move about my city, 0:22:21.200 --> 0:22:24.840 my community, my town, my neighborhood, my state, my country 0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:32.000 free of government surveillance. So it can be said clearly, 0:22:33.320 --> 0:22:35.880 I don't care if your job is made easier by 0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:40.520 the flock camera. Your problem is yours. You chose to 0:22:40.560 --> 0:22:45.879 be in law enforcement. It's not easy. I respect it. 0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:48.800 I don't respect it enough to give up my rights 0:22:48.800 --> 0:22:54.280 for it, though absolutely not. I won't give up a 0:22:54.280 --> 0:22:59.520 single right to make your job easier. I could right 0:22:59.560 --> 0:23:04.520 now without any hesitation, ladies and gentlemen, I could end 0:23:04.760 --> 0:23:09.760 all crime in America after six pm Monday through Sunday. 0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:14.359 I could end it by telling Americans they're not allowed 0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:16.719 to leave their house after six pm Monday through Sunday, 0:23:17.720 --> 0:23:21.280 six pm to six am. That's the curfew. You have 0:23:21.359 --> 0:23:25.040 to be inside your home. You're not even allowed to 0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:27.480 utilize the land of your home. You just got to 0:23:27.480 --> 0:23:31.040 be inside. And I can end crime after six pm. 0:23:31.119 --> 0:23:37.399 I could end it. Easies can be to an irrational thought. 0:23:37.480 --> 0:23:43.600 Though irrational thought, the idea that you could be ordered 0:23:43.680 --> 0:23:48.080 inside your home. Police are out of their minds. And 0:23:48.119 --> 0:23:50.439 we have seen some videos like this wasn't it Minnesota 0:23:50.920 --> 0:23:54.600 where police and they were well armed. We're going down 0:23:54.640 --> 0:23:56.640 the street where they was this about COVID stuff. They're 0:23:56.680 --> 0:23:58.080 looking for stuff and people are on their porch and 0:23:58.119 --> 0:23:59.639 they're screaming get in your house, and people like I 0:23:59.640 --> 0:24:02.959 don't think at my house. They shot bean bags at citizens. 0:24:05.000 --> 0:24:07.400 You think Derek Shalvin should be in jail. Throw all 0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:13.439 those guys in jail. Oh, zero respect for any of 0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:19.399 that government has no right to surveil me, none, zero. 0:24:19.680 --> 0:24:22.080 The flock camera is about surveillance, and there's another one 0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:26.960 is alone along a lon I think it is. It's 0:24:27.000 --> 0:24:32.439 all the same stuff. They have no right to surveil 0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:35.640 you whatsoever. And you're hearing more and more about this, 0:24:36.000 --> 0:24:39.159 and people are more and more disgusted by it. The 0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:43.679 problem is some of them are taking things into their 0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:50.639 own hands and they're doing things like cutting down the cameras. 0:24:50.680 --> 0:24:53.240 This happened, This has happened a couple places, most recently 0:24:53.600 --> 0:24:59.359 at Ball State University, which is in Munsey, Indiana. You 0:24:59.600 --> 0:25:03.720 had Ball State University police officers notified that a flock 0:25:03.760 --> 0:25:07.080 camera had been cut down. They found the camera lying 0:25:07.119 --> 0:25:10.280 on the ground, the solar panels shattered, power cables cut, 0:25:11.400 --> 0:25:13.760 and then they found the video of a white Chevy 0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:17.239 pulling up to the flock camera. Two men dressed in 0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:20.200 black exiting the truck, walked up to the flock cameras 0:25:20.200 --> 0:25:23.840 with a reciprocating saw and cut down the camera's mounting pole. 0:25:26.760 --> 0:25:32.119 You can't do that. You can't do that. You can't 0:25:32.200 --> 0:25:34.800 get me to sit here and say I understand it. 0:25:36.840 --> 0:25:40.120 I can't be the guy who says oh, vandalism, that's 0:25:40.160 --> 0:25:44.480 the way. What you're supposed to do is vote everybody out. 0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:47.320 What you're supposed to do is not give them a 0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:50.480 moment's worth of rest. What you're supposed to do is 0:25:50.560 --> 0:25:52.840 every time they are in the public street, you're supposed 0:25:52.840 --> 0:25:57.159 to videotape them and post it. Make them feel the 0:25:57.200 --> 0:26:02.080 heat in all the ways that are legal. Rational. Now, 0:26:02.080 --> 0:26:04.440 I must admit I've never been a guy who likes 0:26:04.440 --> 0:26:07.680 the idea of the tracker. Do you know the trackers? 0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:11.359 They follow candidates everywhere, They follow politicos everywhere. This is 0:26:11.400 --> 0:26:19.440 their job. It's disturbing and it's ugly and it's it's gross. 0:26:21.000 --> 0:26:23.439 But if the city and the state are saying we 0:26:23.480 --> 0:26:26.200 have the right to surveilue, well you're the elected official. 0:26:27.000 --> 0:26:28.920 You ever noticed that the elected official things? They can 0:26:28.960 --> 0:26:30.879 do anything. But if you want to discuss things at 0:26:30.920 --> 0:26:33.080 the elected official in the public setting, well you have 0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:35.000 to use a certain set of decorum. You're not allowed 0:26:35.000 --> 0:26:36.480 to raise your voice, You're not allowed to say this, 0:26:36.560 --> 0:26:40.160 You're not allowed to do that. They've got rules of plenty. 0:26:40.280 --> 0:26:45.639 It's like the TSA. When the TSA you're heading to 0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.360 the airport, you're there at the airport, and the TSA 0:26:48.480 --> 0:26:51.719 has signs if you're rude, if you're abusive, if you're this, 0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:55.359 if you're that, well, then you're gonna get arrested. And 0:26:55.400 --> 0:26:58.320 the TSA is screaming at you about whether your laptops 0:26:58.359 --> 0:27:00.480 in and your laptops out, and you app this, you 0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:03.080 have to do that. No one's ever being polite or respectful, 0:27:03.160 --> 0:27:06.720 decent or kind, but they're letting you know right off 0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:09.720 the bat that you are just lucky to be there, 0:27:09.880 --> 0:27:12.439 and anytime they feel you're getting just to weep it 0:27:12.600 --> 0:27:15.320 up and you're going to jail. You're certainly missing your flight, 0:27:15.560 --> 0:27:18.040 and they're gonna wear five blue gloves at once, but 0:27:18.200 --> 0:27:20.479 you are going to get yourself in cavity search and 0:27:20.560 --> 0:27:25.000 not the fun kind. There are fun kinds. I leave 0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:29.760 that for others. This is a gross way for things 0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:31.919 to act, for people to act with things to be. 0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:37.040 You can't engage in the vandalism. You can't get me 0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:42.359 to condone that stuff. But if these cities don't understand 0:27:42.400 --> 0:27:45.760 that the flock cameras are wrong, the whole concept is wrong, 0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:49.400 and people will send me an email, they'll sty'll send 0:27:49.400 --> 0:27:51.680 me a message. We were able to find the person 0:27:51.720 --> 0:27:54.480 who attacked my wife. We're able to find this person. 0:27:54.480 --> 0:27:56.040 We were able to find these people who are in 0:27:56.040 --> 0:28:04.480 the country illegally, not at my expense, Not at my expense, 0:28:07.400 --> 0:28:10.760
