1 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: Lie from the heart Bland and the crossroads of America. 2 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:34,519 Speaker 1: It's Tony Cats today. 3 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: Government shut down. And I know what you're saying, Tony. 4 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 2: You don't look panicked and you should be panicked. No, no, no, 5 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 2: I have no, I have no intention of any level 6 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 2: of panic over what. 7 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: That. 8 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 2: People aren't going to get paid from the military. Well, 9 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: nothing I can do about it. I elected these people. 10 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: Turns out the vast majority of them don't know how 11 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: to do their job. 12 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 3: Don't know what else I could do. I know my 13 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 3: Rep voted for. 14 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 2: The Continuing Resolution no weight, no weight. Ooh ooh, I 15 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:23,959 Speaker 2: don't think my Rep. 16 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 3: Did I take that back? 17 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 2: Well, I guess we have the opportunity to vote out then, 18 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: don't we. But it did pass the House, and now 19 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 2: it's with the Senate, and now I've got Senate Democrats 20 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: are saying, we're absolutely not going to vote for this. 21 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: So we can't vote for this. My gosh, we can't 22 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: vote for this. It doesn't provide funding for illegal immigrants. 23 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: This has been an incredible story, this story about funding 24 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,639 Speaker 2: for illegals and where it comes from, how this indeed works, 25 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 2: how is this has worked its way back into the 26 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: conversation of something that was removed, and that you have 27 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: Speaker Johnson discussing all the things that are in this 28 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: and not in this. 29 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 3: As he stated in the press or today, there is 30 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,679 Speaker 3: nothing new in this legislation. 31 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 4: There's no poison pill, there's no partisan tricks, there's no 32 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 4: gimmicks whatsoever. The only difference today is the man who 33 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 4: is sitting in the Oval Office. Rather than work with 34 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 4: President Trump and Republicans to get this job done, as 35 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 4: our party has done repeatedly in the same situation over 36 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 4: the years, Democrats want to play political games with the 37 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: lives and the livelihoods of Americans. The simple truth is 38 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 4: Democrats in Congress have dragged our country into another reckless 39 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 4: shutdown to satisfy their far left base. 40 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: That is the truth. 41 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 4: Whether or not the government remains open or reopens is 42 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 4: entirely up to them. 43 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 3: Correct accurate, absolutely accurate. 44 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 2: Blame Trump and Johnson and the Senate Majority Leader Thoon. 45 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 3: You're more than welcome to. 46 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: You mean, the only option they have is to do 47 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 2: what it is the Democrats want. I don't think you 48 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 2: understand what's happening here. Let me try and help. First 49 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: of all, Tony Katz. Tony Katz today. Good to be 50 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: with you. This isn't the first time today you're gonna 51 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: hear me say this. And I want to make sure 52 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: we all understand each other and we're all speaking on 53 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 2: the same wavelength. 54 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 3: I want to make sure we're all on. 55 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: The same page. Winning means never having to say you're sorry. 56 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: I don't give a good holy damn in hell, what 57 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: it is Chuck Schumer wants, or what it is any 58 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: Senate Democrat wants. Here's the deal. Vote for it or don't. 59 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: But if you don't vote board, it's. 60 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 3: All on you. Now. Excuse me while I enjoy my cigar. 61 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 3: Got to add a little bit of fire to that. 62 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: It seems not just in my cigar, but in my words. 63 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 2: You think the argument that the Republicans control of the House, 64 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: the Senate, and the Executive means they have to give 65 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: in to the Democrats. 66 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 3: It means, hey, Democrats, know your place. 67 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 2: In the damn line. I'm not interested in kindness right now. 68 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 2: I'm interested in these people actually doing the job. I'm 69 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: interested in people being normal. What I wouldn't give. 70 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 3: Why is it so hard for everybody to just be normal? 71 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: Illegal immigrants don't get any healthcare, They don't get any 72 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: access to healthcare. They don't get a position on healthcare 73 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: because we have to stop incentivizing being here illegally. 74 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: And this is part of the process. Democrats, you lost. 75 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 2: You lost because you were completely disconnected from where the 76 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 2: American voter is. 77 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 3: You don't have any idea where they are. You're running 78 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 3: right now. 79 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: Study after study after study to figure out how you 80 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 2: possibly connect with the American voter, and you don't have 81 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: it because millions of people watch the memorial for Charlie 82 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 2: Kirk and you can't get five people. 83 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 3: To sit in a room with you. 84 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: You think we have to worry about what you say 85 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 2: and negotiate with you. 86 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 3: Sit down. You don't count, you don't matter. You want 87 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:33,359 Speaker 3: to be a fly in the oinymit, knock yourself out. 88 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: You want to be the thing that keeps from a 89 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: level of opportunity and keeping things fun? 90 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 3: Did you go right ahead? But it's on you. 91 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 2: You make your political decisions as you do, but thinking 92 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: that somehow you have some strength, some convictions, some power 93 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 2: that I have to pay attention to. 94 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 3: What are we all insane? 95 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:03,599 Speaker 2: Are we all just completely and totally insane? We don't 96 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: owe anything to you, Chuck Schumer. We don't owe anything 97 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 2: to you Democrats. We don't owe anything to you trolls. 98 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 2: I can sit here and as clear as day say, 99 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: dear Lord, this is embarrassing. It is embarrassing that these 100 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 2: people can't get a pass a budget. 101 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 3: And you understand that this Continuing Resolution is only a lead. 102 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: Up to the Continuing Resolution that takes place in November. 103 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 2: You think these people are gonna have a budget in November, 104 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: you really think so. 105 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 3: I'd love to see it. See, there are. 106 00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 2: Certain realities, of course, and the reality is is that 107 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: Democrats have seats, and you need sixty votes in the Senate, 108 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 2: and therefore you may have to deal with these. 109 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 3: People in the Senate. 110 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: You could go nuclear like Harry Reid taught you to 111 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 2: and do fifty votes and put an end to this, 112 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 2: or maybe you don't, because isn't it better for Chuck 113 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: Schuman to take every hit? And of course the rect 114 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: cognition that he's taking the hits because he's trying to 115 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 2: show how tough he is, not to you and me, 116 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: not to Republicans, but to liberals, trying to show how 117 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 2: tough he is to liberals so they will see, man, 118 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: he's really tough. So he doesn't get shellacked by Alexandria 119 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: Cassio Cortez once she decides to run against him for 120 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: Senate in New York. 121 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 3: Because that's happening, that's coming. Of course, it is. Everybody 122 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: knows that it is. 123 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: I would much rather if these people were normal, and 124 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 2: much rather that we had some level of focus. 125 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: But we don't. 126 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: We have got ridiculousness, and we have gotten nonsense. We 127 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 2: have got pablem and we have tantrums. 128 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 3: It's no way to run a country. It's valueless. But 129 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 3: it is where we are. Okay, it's where we are. 130 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 2: As long as it's where we are, then I'm not 131 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: interested in hearing the Democrats at all. Their argument is 132 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 2: you have to negotiate with us and do what we say. 133 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 2: You can't say no, you have to do what we say. 134 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 2: That's not a negotiation. And because this is where we're at, 135 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 2: I now go back to where I started. The Democratic 136 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 2: Party can sit down. Who gives a good holy damn 137 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,839 Speaker 2: what you think about anything. I'm not interested in your 138 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 2: thoughts or in your philosophies. You're lost. Isn't this what 139 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 2: Barack Obama taught us? I have a phone, and I 140 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,320 Speaker 2: have a pen. Isn't that what the man said here 141 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:53,200 Speaker 2: we are you want tough love. You're all into tough love. Well, 142 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 2: the Republicans have to deal with with Chuck Sherman Democrats. 143 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 3: No, they don't. 144 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 2: Every day this goes on, It's on Chuck Schumer and 145 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: it's on the Democrats. Every day a service member doesn't 146 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 2: get paid. Every day someplace isn't open, where a family's 147 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: on vacation spending their hard earned money, and now they 148 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 2: can't see it. Every day we are get weakened in 149 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 2: the eyes of the world. 150 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 3: If you want to argue with that is even happening. 151 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 2: If you want to argue that, that's on the Democrats 152 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: every day until they finally cave, until they finally give in, 153 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 2: until they finally give up, until they finally recognize that 154 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 2: they haven't done anything and they can't do anything because 155 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 2: they are so completely detached from where the American people are. 156 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 3: I would rather we had a budget. I would rather 157 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 3: we were normal. I would rather that we didn't have. 158 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 2: Anyone anywhere at any time saying that we should fund 159 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: illegal immigrants. 160 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 4: Put our Democrats demanding health care for illegal aliens. 161 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 5: Democrat are demanding healthcare for everybody can I is there 162 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:11,679 Speaker 5: any question that I'm right? 163 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: Don't care about trolls, don't care about madness, don't care 164 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: about screaming and yelling. What I would like is a 165 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 2: budget that says we take care of the American citizen first, 166 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 2: and we pay absolutely no mind whatsoever to the illegal immigrant. 167 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 3: We want them gone, We want that. 168 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: Bram in our lives over, because that seems to be 169 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 2: the at least where the Democrats are the sticking points. 170 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,520 Speaker 2: Schumer saying Republicans are plunging America into a shutdown, rejecting 171 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 2: bipartisan talks, pushing a partisan bill, and risking America's health care. 172 00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: Worst of all, this is. 173 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:03,479 Speaker 2: A cantinuing resolution to get to a continuing resolution in November. 174 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: This is not plunging the country into anything and rejecting 175 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: this and this should have been okay, let's do this 176 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 2: to get to that. Let's do this, and let's negotiate 177 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: on that. Don't you think you could have earned a 178 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: little bit of goodwill. We're going to keep the country going. 179 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 2: But here are our points, and Republicans need to take heed. 180 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: And this is what America is saying to you, because 181 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: you have an argument you can make on the economy. 182 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 3: You have an argument that. 183 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 2: You can always make on healthcare. Remember, the worst, the 184 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: most ridiculous and embarrassing thing Republicans may have ever done, 185 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,479 Speaker 2: may have ever done, is scream for years that Obamacare 186 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,679 Speaker 2: is terrible, and then when given the opportunity to replace Obamacare, 187 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 2: they basically said, and I quote, they had no idea. 188 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 3: You put nothing forward. 189 00:11:54,000 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, I would simply put forward getting rid of Obamacare. 190 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 2: I have no interest in any government sponsored healthcare whatsoever. 191 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: I also want government buying a part of Intel. I 192 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 2: also want government fixing prices for drugs. There's a lot 193 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 2: of things that I don't want. Maybe I'm on an 194 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 2: island all by myself. Maybe it turns out I got 195 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 2: a lot of friends on the island. You see to 196 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 2: the chat room. It's not the same with immigration reform. 197 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 3: No no, no, no no. 198 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: Because with Trump, we actually saw it happened. We saw 199 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 2: a real difference. But I could argue you could argue 200 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: a difference between Trump and Republicans. You could argue that 201 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 2: there but on spending, Oh my gosh, Republicans get control, 202 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: and where's the spending cuts. Democrats spend and Republicans spend less. 203 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: That I'm supposed to say, whoo, hell no, gosh no. 204 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 2: But we're supposed to somehow bend over backwards for Chuck 205 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: Schumer and this Democratic Party who wants people who are 206 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: not in the country legally to get healthcare. No, we 207 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: have to cut off any type of incentive whatsoever. And 208 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 2: if Democrats don't like it, screw off. We're not interested 209 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: on this subject. We are not interested in any level 210 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: of debate. We're interested in you losing, and you losing 211 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 2: in unbelievable measure. We want you to cry if that's 212 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 2: what it takes for you to get the point. We're 213 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 2: not going to give in on this. Now pass the 214 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 2: damn bill so people can get paid, and let's talk 215 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 2: about a budget that makes sense. Of course, you have representatives, 216 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,560 Speaker 2: they should be able to voice their opinion. 217 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,040 Speaker 3: But sometimes you lose. 218 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 2: And what the Democrats are doing here is their version 219 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 2: of running away from Texas to Illinois because they don't 220 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 2: want to vote on the fact that redistricting is a 221 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: political process and it's happening. This budget's going to happen, 222 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 2: or no one's getting paid, and it'll all be on. 223 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 3: You, Democrats.

Government also purchased a stake in a lithium company. 258 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 2: Is it's a battery company. I just don't know its name. 259 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: I know they did so with Intel because MAGA has 260 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: embraced socialism. 261 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 3: You're saying it wrong. And when you say it like 262 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 3: that and they put it like a. 263 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: Little laughing, crying face emoji, because that's what grown men do. 264 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 3: They use emojis.

The difference is the MAGA Republican 279 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 2: would not believe in any of the other things that 280 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 2: the socialist does.

Real toxic leadership 332 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 8: is promoting destructive ideologies that are an anathema to the 333 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 8: Constitution and the laws of nature and Nature's God. 334 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 7: As Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence. 335 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 3: How could anybody have a problem with what he just said? 336 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 2: But it's the political left, and they've got a problem 337 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 2: with everything. The problem is the argument they want to 338 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 2: make doesn't actually connect to any bit of reality. 339 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:41,439 Speaker 3: Tony Katz. 340 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: Tony Katz today guys an absolute pleasure to be with 341 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 2: You find everything at Tony katz dot com. 342 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 3: Live streaming on the YouTube just go to YouTube dot 343 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,120 Speaker 3: com last Tony Katz will be. 344 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: A part of it, or you can find us on Twitter, 345 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 2: exit Tony Kat's Facebook, Tony Katz Radio.

Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War, said, 350 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 2: there are just ridiculous arguments being made about how my gosh, 351 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: the generals they didn't applaud. There was just silence, and 352 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 2: Pete Hegseth was met with silence. And that really shows 353 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: you what they think of Pete Hegseth. Who does he 354 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 2: think he is, this young punk? These generals all have 355 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 2: more dust on their boots than him, and they fought here, 356 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 2: and they fought there, and heg Seth, he doesn't do anything, 357 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: and he doesn't know anything. This is considered rational conversation 358 00:21:54,720 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 2: amongst the left. This weird and odd and all altogether 359 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: sad retort. 360 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 3: That somehow. 361 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 2: The recognition that we have lost our way on standards, 362 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 2: and in order to have a lethal fighting for us, 363 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 2: we have to have standards that somehow that argument is unacceptable, 364 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 2: somehow that argument is wrong, embarrassing, shameful, when it is 365 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 2: absolutely the. 366 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 3: Argument that matters most. 367 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,239 Speaker 2: What is wrong of saying to these military leaders we 368 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 2: are getting back to the standard of let's say, for example, 369 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 2: no beards. You're right, it's a weird thing to talk 370 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 2: about no beards. This what we're concerning ourselves with the 371 00:22:54,960 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: little things. The little things things matter greatly because it 372 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 2: is the little things that lead to the larger things. 373 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 2: Standards being upheld, are upheld everywhere, even when no one 374 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 2: is looking. That's what makes them standards. That's what makes 375 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: them an ethic, That's what makes them a code. 376 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 3: It matters. 377 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 2: It matters that, indeed members of the military are in shape. 378 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 2: It matters that there is a standard to the level 379 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 2: of training and physicality utilized every day to make sure 380 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 2: that you. 381 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 3: Are upholding that standard. 382 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 2: Why in the world would we think otherwise, and why 383 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 2: would we be mad at somebody who said so? What 384 00:23:52,080 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: a weird, odd, strange, peculiar, nonsensical thing to be angry about, 385 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 2: upset about? How exactly does one get bothered by the 386 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 2: concept of merit? Well, we know that answer, We know 387 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 2: what it is that progressive culture has taught that merit 388 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 2: in and of itself is the bigotry, and we need 389 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: to do away. 390 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 3: From merit. 391 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: To ensure everybody gets an opportunity and everybody has a chance. 392 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 3: That in and of itself is bigotry. 393 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: Of course, if you are not scoring based on the merit, 394 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 2: or based on the skill, or based on the test. 395 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 3: But rather on some kind of curve, based on an. 396 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: Immutable characteristic, the only way it can be seen is bigotry, 397 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 2: which is exactly what things like DEI are. They always 398 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 2: have been, they always will be. There is no place 399 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,440 Speaker 2: for them in any part of civil society, and certainly 400 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 2: not in the military. But we heard time and again 401 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 2: yesterday the generals, how dare you speak to the generals 402 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,480 Speaker 2: like this? And you heard the general silence. They're not 403 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: going to be taking this. They weren't interested in this. 404 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,280 Speaker 2: They were just gonna act like professionals. And my gosh, 405 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: how disgusting of a thing, How disgusting of a way. 406 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 3: For them to be treated. Let us discuss that for 407 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 3: a moment. 408 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: Let me start by saying that I was never a 409 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 2: member of the military. The military is better off that 410 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 2: I wasn't a member of the military at the time, 411 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 2: there would have been no way I could handle it. 412 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: There were men and women who were much more mentally 413 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 2: capable of handling that than I. 414 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 3: My time came later. 415 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 2: My understanding of self, my understanding of the soul, my 416 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: understanding of the system, my understanding of what it takes, 417 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 2: came later. This is what it is. I'm not embarrassed 418 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 2: by it. I'm glad I got there. Years ago, after 419 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 2: my first year of college, a kid I grew up with, 420 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 2: I was in scouts with, played soccer with high school with, 421 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 2: was killed in a car accident. It's the first person 422 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 2: I ever knew who was you know, a friend contemporary 423 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 2: nineteen was killed and at his funeral someone said of 424 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 2: him that he was the kind of guy who when 425 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 2: you showed up at the party late, didn't yell at 426 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 2: you for being late. 427 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 3: He just said, hey, I'm glad you're here. I'm telling you. 428 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 3: It's been a lot of years later and that line. 429 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 2: Has stuck with me as something that as a valuable 430 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 2: way to live a life. And I don't know if 431 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: we would have agreed on anything politically today, but what 432 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: a line, what a statement, what a philosophy to a life. 433 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 2: I'm not man that you're I'm just glad that you're here, 434 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 2: which is really how I do go about the radio show. 435 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 2: I want people to arrive at this spot of conservatism 436 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 2: and of rationality, and if I could be of any 437 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 2: service and sharing ideas and thoughts that help people get there, terrific. 438 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 2: But they have to get there on their own. Can't 439 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 2: force anybody anywhere. The generals were quiet. Oh listen to 440 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: the general's silence. That really showed Pete haig Seth And 441 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 2: who does he think he is? Pete HeiG Seth is 442 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: the Secretary of War, nominated by the duly elected President 443 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 2: of the United States and confirmed by the Senate, and 444 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,360 Speaker 2: he's the guy in charge. So I don't give a good, 445 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 2: holy damn how the generals feel. Just follow the orders 446 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 2: and shut your mouths. And for everybody else who served 447 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 2: in the military or didn't serve in the military, or 448 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 2: is an elected official, or was an elect official, will 449 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 2: never be an elected official, or is just a troll 450 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 2: on social media upset with how the. 451 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 3: Generals were spoken to. No one cares. 452 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 2: Generals can be spoken to any which way by their superiors, 453 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 2: which are, of course the civilians that run this thing. 454 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 2: Now do your job or resign, but don't give me 455 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 2: any lip. There is no other response. And I know 456 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: that I'm gonna have people say, just who the hell 457 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: do you think you are? You never wore the uniform, 458 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 2: damn strait. I am fully aware I never wore the 459 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: uniform that's on me. Does it change anything that I said? 460 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 2: Does it make it any less true? And for all 461 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 2: those people who did fight, I thought you fought for 462 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 2: freedom of speech, all of a sudden it doesn't belong 463 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 2: for me because I didn't serve. 464 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 3: I'm not buying that. 465 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 2: The Secretary of War just told you there's a standard, 466 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: and if you don't like the standard, by Felicia, I 467 00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 2: don't want to hear your personality. 468 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: I don't want to see your tears. 469 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: I don't want to hear the nonsense of the MSNBC 470 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: crowd complaining how dare you speak to the generals like that? 471 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: We speak the way we need to speak because we 472 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: have a problem. And the problem is the standard has 473 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: not been adhered to, and we don't have the lethality 474 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 2: of a fighting force that we desperately need in today's 475 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: world and in every world, we don't have it. And 476 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 2: we need it, and we need it yesterday. You think 477 00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 2: that Lloyd Austin's secretary of Defense was so great with 478 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: the generals, A guy who wore seven masks and then 479 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 2: had surgery without telling his superior who is the President 480 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 2: of the United States, mind you, and quite literally went 481 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 2: a wall. I'll take Pete Hegseth every day the week 482 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 2: and twice on Sunday. These stories that always manneck and 483 00:29:54,720 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 2: he's screaming at staff and this and that. Nope, I'm 484 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: not buying it. But let's say it's all true. Let's 485 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: says an incredibly hard guy to deal with, that might 486 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 2: be possible. I wish you'd be an easier guy to 487 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 2: deal with if he's a hard guy to deal with, 488 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 2: because it doesn't help when you're a hard guy to 489 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 2: deal with, unless, of course, you're. 490 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 3: Saying, here's the standard. 491 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 2: Everybody has to adhere to it, and if you don't 492 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: like it, I don't care. 493 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 3: I'm the guy in charge, because Pete Hegseth is the 494 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 3: guy in charge. I don't want to hear from a 495 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: general and. 496 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 2: Admiral, a corporal. I don't want to hear from anybody 497 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 2: what kind of madness is this response? And what is 498 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 2: Isn't this more of like putting words into the mouths 499 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 2: of the generals. If they want to speak about it, 500 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: they can. I saw one story that a member of 501 00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 2: the Air Force put in his resume nation today. Maybe 502 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 2: it was always the plan, Maybe this was the day 503 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 2: they were going to put it in. Maybe what he 504 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 2: heard yesterday was enough. All right, I'm getting out now, 505 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 2: now's my time to go. Harmony anger towards that. Thank 506 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 2: you for your service, all the best to you, and 507 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 2: what comes next. Anyone who doesn't want to serve to 508 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: the standard can go. We had different generals before these guys, 509 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 2: We'll have different generals after these guys. 510 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 3: But again, the. 511 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 2: Left sticks to one weird, odd, strange, peculiar philosophy that 512 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 2: the system must exist for the sake of the system. 513 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 2: The institution must exist for the sake of the institution. 514 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 2: Instead of the institution providing a value to the citizenry, 515 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 2: our military needs to be able to kill the enemy dead, 516 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 2: wherever the enemy is, when the moment arises. 517 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 3: If the moment arrived and Congress says go. 518 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 2: Anything less is insane. And Pete Heggs's speech was about 519 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 2: the standard for lethality. I don't see how that isn't good. 520 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: I don't see how that isn't exactly what people who 521 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 2: voted for Trump voted for. But I could totally see 522 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 2: how the liberals upset by it because it turns out 523 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 2: they don't know how to protect the country anyway, or 524 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 2: they're not interested in protecting the country. 525 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 3: I haven't figured that part out. Oh wait, maybe I have. 526 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 3: I'm Tony Katz and this is Tony Katz today. So 527 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 3: the White House briefing is schedule to take place today. 528 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: That will be, of course, a large part about the shutdown. 529 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 2: There may be some interesting things about jobs numbers there, 530 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 2: because ADP. 531 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 3: Is saying that there was a job loss. 532 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 2: In September, not a gain. So but that's an ADP number, 533 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 2: that's not a BLS number, which is a whole issue 534 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 2: with the shutdown, and whether or not the Bureau of 535 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: Labor Statistics. 536 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 3: Will be able to put out any numbers because of 537 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 3: the shutdown. 538 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 2: I don't have an answer for that. And also somebody 539 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 2: asked me my take on the Trump net and Yahoo 540 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: Hamas peace deal. I've got my take on that, whether 541 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 2: I think Hamas is going to take the deal, what 542 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 2: it is that we know right now and what it 543 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: is that's being being discussed or mentioned as where they're at. 544 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 2: I will have all that for you. But as I said, 545 00:33:53,520 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 2: there are some worthwhile interesting and audio, including this from 546 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 2: Ilhan Omar, who is maybe not worthwhile or interesting, but 547 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 2: if you want to talk about incendiary. 548 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:11,879 Speaker 9: And so, the idea that this is a white nation 549 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:19,520 Speaker 9: that needs to be preserved is a fascinatingly disgusting view 550 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 9: because this country is one for the many. 551 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 2: I would agree that the idea that the United States 552 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 2: is a white nation, which is you know, leftists continuing 553 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 2: the conversation of white supremacy, is the only thing that's 554 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 2: wrong in the country. 555 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 3: I think that'd be right. It doesn't have to be 556 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:47,839 Speaker 3: a white nation. 557 00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 2: I think it's a weird thing to even say, as 558 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 2: if anybody of any realistic metal is saying that what 559 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: it cannot be representative omar is an Islamist nation. 560 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 3: See, that's the only thing it can't be. 561 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 2: You cannot have any Islamist you cannot have any Sharia 562 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 2: none zero less than zero. 563 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 3: Can't have a country if you have that, we can 564 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 3: agree on that, right, because if we 565 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 2: Can't, we should really ask you some more questions or 566 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 2: anybody who thinks like that, I'm Tony Kantz,
