WEBVTT - Episode 4647: Tony Katz Today Hour 2 - 08/04/26 0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:10.160 Live from vall Hart, Blind and the Crossroads of America. 0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:19.720 It's Tony Katz today. So there's a new trend, I guess. 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:28.600 And the new trend is that Caitlin Clark is somehow 0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:35.400 a trader, is somehow not backing up Sophie Cunningham because 0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:36.160 she doesn't want. 0:00:36.040 --> 0:00:37.080 To talk about. 0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:44.000 Girl sports, or trans athletes or anything else. She doesn't 0:00:44.000 --> 0:00:45.360 want to talk about any of it. She wants to 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:51.839 talk about basketball. And I've seen now conservative commentator Matt Walsh. 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:56.080 I've seen a conservative commentator when it suits her, Megan Kelly, 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:02.880 send your handmail to kiss. 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:04.840 Off at yahoo dot net and I'll be sure to 0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:05.200 get it. 0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:16.559 Talking smack about Caitlyn Clark. Because Caitlyn Clark was asked, right, 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:22.800 she was asked about this stuff. She's there with Kelsey 0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:26.800 Mitchell and coach Stephanie White. She's asked, does she have 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:33.400 any response to what's happening? This controversy around Sophie Cunningham. 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.600 Now we should be clear, there is no controversy around 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:41.319 Sophie Cunningham. Everyone's just a freak. Sophie Cunningham said, the 0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:44.240 most normal thing in the world. And I do agree 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:49.400 that normal things should be said out loud without any concern. 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:57.200 She said, and I'm paraphrasing here. Girls sports are for girls. 0:01:56.960 --> 0:02:04.040 That's normal. Girls' sports are for girls. Every rational person 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:07.760 knows this, not for boys. Women's sports is not for men. 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.080 Men's sports are for men. Women's sports are for women. 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:15.840 And if there is no difference, if there is no 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:19.240 concern about a man playing in a women's league, then 0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:23.560 there's no need for the women's league. Kiss off title nine. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.720 There's no need for you. We don't need to have 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.400 a women's sports team. All the colleges. You can just 0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:30.960 get rid of them all. After all, football pace or everything, 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:34.200 and nobody wants to see girls lacrosse or as a 0:02:34.280 --> 0:02:35.000 field hockey. 0:02:35.280 --> 0:02:36.240 I can't keep up. 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:43.080 I'm gonna get emails again, same email address. You're not necessary. 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:47.040 We were told it was necessary to give women these 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.040 opportunities because they should be able to play in sports 0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:56.280 just like men. And yeah, okay, great argument. Who hardly agree. 0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:01.760 Now the left is saying that the women shouldn't have 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.960 the right to play just against women because it doesn't matter. 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.320 And then there's the ever popular you know. 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.760 This isn't a big deal, it's not really happening it's 0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:10.720 just a culture war. 0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:15.440 Maybe we're going to start there. Maybe we'll start at 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:16.760 the idea of the culture war. 0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:20.520 This was James tall Rico, who I did not know 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:27.360 they referred to as James Tealafrico, the Democrat running for 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:31.519 Senate in Texas. 0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:33.800 And he's talking about this. 0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.680 As Oh, look at these culture wars that the political 0:03:38.760 --> 0:03:44.080 right are all involved in. This was him just yesterday 0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:46.800 on MS NOW or EM snow or whatever it is 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:47.800 they call that network. 0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:50.840 Listen, and I think people are really tired of these 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:54.520 cultural war fights that are designed to tear us apart, 0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:57.960 designed to get us angry. I mean, are there are 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:01.720 difficult issues trying to figure out trans athletes in sports? 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:03.400 That's an issue where we could actually come to a 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:04.320 policy solution. 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:10.520 Nope, well I guess we could come to a policy solution. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:15.000 The policy is men don't play in women's sports. That's 0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:18.800 the policy. Men who claim to be women are not women, 0:04:19.040 --> 0:04:20.840 never have been, never will be. I can't believe we're 0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:24.600 still talking about this. I apologize, but they keep doing it. 0:04:25.120 --> 0:04:26.520 James Tallerico calls. 0:04:26.360 --> 0:04:28.080 It a culture war, and I want to say it's 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.440 the only thing he's gotten. Correct, You bet your assets. 0:04:30.440 --> 0:04:31.479 A culture war, We're. 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:37.840 Gonna win and you're gonna lose. Suck on that. That's it. 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:38.760 It's a culture war. 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:41.040 We believe in a. 0:04:41.000 --> 0:04:44.400 Culture, us being the normal people, that there's a difference 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.480 between women and men, and that difference is important and valuable. 0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:52.159 You live in a culture, not you, They them. They 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:54.560 live in a culture that things that men give me 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:55.679 women if they put. 0:04:55.520 --> 0:05:02.320 On a dress, somebody tell Milton Burrell, would you please? Oh? 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:04.560 And then somebody tell the people who ask who in 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:06.760 the world is Milton Burrel to look up who Milton 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:13.440 Burrell is and help them through this. Just because you 0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:15.640 put on a dress doesn't make you a woman. Just 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.479 because you wear a wig doesn't make you a woman. 0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:22.280 It's just not the way it works. It's never gonna 0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.040 be the way it works. This is a culture war. 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:26.920 We win, they lose. 0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:27.919 That's that. 0:05:30.279 --> 0:05:37.039 Not everybody has to participate, not to everybody has to 0:05:37.080 --> 0:05:42.080 be screaming and yelling from the chandeliers. We look at 0:05:42.160 --> 0:05:45.760 pro athletes and some people tell pro athletes to shut 0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:51.520 up and dribble. I have never ever ever been that guy. 0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:56.040 You can say anything you want, you have to accept. 0:05:55.720 --> 0:05:57.080 The fact that it could get blowback. 0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:01.279 What stuns me is these athletes who say things and 0:06:01.320 --> 0:06:04.080 then there's blowback like, how dare you tell me? 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:10.600 Don't you know how important I am? Just an athlete, 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:17.359 that's all, Just an athlete. That's it. Well paid for 0:06:17.400 --> 0:06:17.760 a game. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:25.400 Congratulations doesn't make you an expert on anything. Now we're 0:06:25.400 --> 0:06:27.760 at the stage where we're getting upset with people for 0:06:27.920 --> 0:06:28.840 not saying anything. 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.640 And this brings us to Kaitlyn Clark. 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:36.119 Kaitlyn Clark is there at the table that's a press 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:39.039 conference after a game. The Fever had just lost. They 0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:41.880 had won five in a row. They lose, and it 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:43.240 goes like this outside. 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:46.880 I think for us, like you know, it's not really 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:48.800 discussion we really have in our locker room. I think 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:50.760 it's for leagues and the governing bodies to work with 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:52.960 their athletes to find solutions. But our focus is on 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.359 basketball and that's what we talk about and how we 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:57.039 can get wins. And obviously we didn't do that tonight. 0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.040 So you to fine an area to improve in that. 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:03.080 Way because you have any reaction to the I. 0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:07.480 Just answered plea she wants a part of this conversation. 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:17.640 She's talking basketball. Yes, Caitlyn Clark could say girl sports. 0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:22.440 Are for girls. Absolutely, she could say girls sports are 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:23.040 for girls. 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:26.320 It's an easy thing to say, it's a normal thing 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:30.720 to say. Has this become part of a culture war? Absolutely? 0:07:31.160 --> 0:07:32.480 Is it one that we are going to win and 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:33.320 they have to lose? 0:07:33.520 --> 0:07:39.320 Absolutely? Caitlyn Clark doesn't have to go out there and 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:40.280 every day. 0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:47.400 Voice some opinion. It's not necessary. Nobody needs that from her. 0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:52.800 Nobody's asking that from her. Nobody's asking it from the WNBA. 0:07:54.080 --> 0:07:57.440 Nobody's asking anybody in any league to go out there 0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.720 and be as political as humanly possible. 0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:03.680 We're asking to go out there and play to the 0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:10.840 best of your ability. 0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:14.200 We're asking to put on a show. That is what 0:08:14.360 --> 0:08:17.040 I am certainly asking go put on a show. And 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.320 my arguments about the WNBA have been constantly and consistently, 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.920 why don't you want to put on a show. Why 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.400 do you hate this woman so much? Why do you 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:30.200 hate popular players? Why do you hate better play? For what? 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.520 What is wrong with you? And you learn that the 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:35.840 WNBA is interested in something that has nothing to do 0:08:35.920 --> 0:08:41.400 with the product on the court. They're interested in something 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.920 that has nothing to do with what they claim to be, 0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:51.480 which is a basketball Association. She doesn't have to sit 0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:56.400 there and read off some tone about why she believes 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:58.600 this and believes that and stand up for this and 0:08:58.600 --> 0:09:03.640 stand up for that. He's playing the game. But I 0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:06.800 have Matt Walsh calling her a coward. I have Megan 0:09:06.920 --> 0:09:07.839 Kelly calling. 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:11.920 Her a coward? What the hell is this? First? 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:14.760 Why is she a coward? Because she didn't give the 0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:18.400 answer you wanted given? It doesn't make somebody a coward 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:26.480 when they jump into the fray and then aren't willing 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.120 to back up their position. Well, that could be something. 0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:36.000 She's not jumping in the fray. What is so cowardly 0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:44.480 about not wanting to be a part of this? Matt 0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:47.360 Walsh wrote that Caitlin Clark might be the biggest coward 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.000 in the history of sports. She refuses to say anything 0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:52.160 about the anti white racism she has been subject to 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:54.320 you since coming into the league. She puns on the 0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:57.080 trans question, which is the easiest question you could ever 0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:03.840 be asked, No spine, what if, Matt? Because listen, you've 0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:05.800 done some good work, but doesn't make you right on everything. 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.480 And I know that might be a hard one for you, 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:10.600 because I believe that you believe that you're right on everything. 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:15.280 I believe that you absolutely believe that that you are 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:16.680 touched with secret knowledge. 0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.040 I think you believe that certainly. I would argue it's 0:10:19.040 --> 0:10:20.600 the way you come across, but I don't know you, 0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:23.200 so I could be wrong. There. See, that's how normal 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:23.760 people talk. 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:28.520 What do you want her to say about the bigotry 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:34.400 of the WNBA, because we're all saying it. What do 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:38.560 you want her to do? What would satisfy you in 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:43.280 this regard? Isn't it better that she shows up every day, 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.800 no matter how much he's been beaten up, ready to 0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:48.120 play at least of course when they have an injured 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:51.120 or so greatly that she keeps coming back and keeps 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:53.920 coming back, and keeps coming back and hits the threes 0:10:54.000 --> 0:11:00.800 and moves the teams and invigorates. Isn't that a way 0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:08.320 to win? May not be your way? Matt could be away, 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:11.160 She punts on the trans question. You mean there's only one. 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:14.839 It can only be answered once. She's only allowed to 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.040 bring it up once. If she does this at whatever 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:19.600 months from now, when she feels the timing is better, 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:20.800 that's gonna be wrong. 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:25.280 It's not your timeline. It's not cowardly. 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.880 What it is is you saying, Hey, I wonder if 0:11:28.920 --> 0:11:31.360 I write this how many clicks I can get. That's 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:33.880 what it comes across as and we shouldn't do that. 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:39.280 On the political right, we shouldn't be doing that. I 0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:41.760 think if we look at people who put themselves out 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:43.840 there in the sphere, we can engage those things. 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:46.040 But isn't the. 0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:50.040 Story here not Clark, but rather how the coaches responded 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.480 to Sophie Cunningham. I've got the coach of the Minnesota Linx, 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.080 I've got the coach of the Golden State Valkyries. They 0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.240 are the ones saying that the WNBA should not be 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:03.480 about the wa Well, the WNBA is not about the 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.720 w We already have an NBA. The WNBA doesn't need 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:09.760 to exist. Get rid of this welfare league once and 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:14.320 for all, and let's build a new league where you 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.880 can have Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham and a bunch 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:20.360 of other people white and black and Asian Hispanic, and 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.000 they could actually play good ball with none of this 0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:26.319 nonsense that is being thrust on them. 0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:27.320 By the league. 0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:31.160 A league where we would agree, probably Matt that wants 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:36.440 to be gay and black gay or black man. I 0:12:36.480 --> 0:12:39.000 know maybe for some gay and black, but gay or black, 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.840 because that's clearly what they want. They've made that obvious. 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:50.680 She's not a coward. Don't pin your hopes and dreams 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:56.880 on an athlete. Why would you do such a thing. 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.400 She doesn't have to speak out on every issue you 0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:08.240 decide is important. Sophie Cunningham being utilized as this political 0:13:08.280 --> 0:13:12.800 cudgel is nonsense. She didn't say something political, she said 0:13:12.840 --> 0:13:17.280 something normal. There's a difference, and what we're supposed to 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:23.720 say is that's normal, that's rational. You people are just weird. 0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:32.559 That's the way that is supposed to be handled. And 0:13:32.600 --> 0:13:35.160 Megan Kelly talking about cowardice. 0:13:37.000 --> 0:13:39.520 Are you no longer riding with Tucker? 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.280 I noticed that he had dinner with Marjorie Taylor Green 0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.160 and Joe Kent and Thomas Massey. 0:13:45.200 --> 0:13:47.240 Were you not invited? Hey? 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:50.320 Listen, sometimes we don't get invited to things, right, I've 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.760 been there, You've been there. Sometimes I don't get invited. 0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:57.280 I sometimes believe that not being invited makes me better off. 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:02.920 I have dodd to the proverbial bullet in that case, 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:07.760 because people are letting me know. I'm like great, you know, 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:09.280 It's like I don't want to belong to a club 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:10.640 that would have someone like me as a member. I 0:14:10.679 --> 0:14:12.360 don't want to belong to a club that doesn't want 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:15.679 to have someone like me as a member. Sophy Cunningham 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:20.160 is not a political cudgel. She made a normal statement, 0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:25.400 and that's it. It's such an unremarkable statement that we're 0:14:25.400 --> 0:14:27.320 still remarking on it is stunning. 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:29.920 But we're not remarking on her. We're remarking on. 0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:31.840 All the people who are desperate for these things to 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:35.040 be political, on the left end on the right. I'm 0:14:35.040 --> 0:14:39.480 a conservative. I don't pull any punches. I say it clearly. 0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:42.520 I wear it out there for the world to see 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:47.640 without any fear whatsoever. Matt Walsh, Meghan Kelly and all 0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:49.840 these people who want to do this Pilon are wrong. 0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:55.480 They're just wrong. They're not wrong to want to protect girls. 0:14:56.600 --> 0:15:00.880 They're not wrong to note the bigotry, wrong to say 0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.360 it's up to Caitlin Clark to write the world of 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.040 its ills. 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:10.240 No, it's not. It's up to Caitlyn Clark. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:13.760 It's a job of Caitlyn Clark to win and send 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:19.160 the Indiana Fever to a championship. And that's her only job. 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:25.720 If she wants to speak. Great, I'll be listening. This 0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.240 is Tony Katz today. Now comment from an athlete that's 0:15:29.280 --> 0:15:33.119 making the rounds is Aaron Rodgers, quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers, 0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:38.560 to Pat McAfee regarding Anthony Fauci. 0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.360 Oh mine, Tony Katz, Tony Katz today. 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:48.440 So this is a Pat McAfee show and Aaron Rodgers 0:15:48.520 --> 0:15:49.960 is the guest, and he's sitting in a like a 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:53.640 swivel barrel chair. And what I love is that when 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:57.080 you take a look at this visual, I don't know 0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:59.080 McAfee is even aware that he's doing it. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.120 This is like a tribute to Andy Kaufman. 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.560 It's always been known that talk show hosts keep their 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.640 desk and keep their chair higher. 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:07.920 Than the guest. 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:12.920 It's always that way. Johnny did it, Conan did it. 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.440 They do it today always. And Andy Kaufman did a 0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:18.600 bit where he played a talk show host and he's 0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:20.440 quite literally fifty feet in the. 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:22.840 Air and the guest is all the way down below. 0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:23.680 It's fantastic. 0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:29.840 And I'm telling you that Pat McAfee is a good 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:35.000 six to eight inches higher than Aaron Rodgers. But here's 0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:40.400 the question. It's a Fauci hit. It's so good, it 0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.760 is so Aaron Rodgers. You've been redeemed myle mind. 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:47.040 Because you've been very open about coming back for this 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.360 year last rodeo, and you talked about your wife saying, 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.680 hey have another year. Mike McCarthy being here obviously a 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:53.960 big deal. Can you tell us about the mindset of 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.080 coming into your last season, like that's a real thing. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:59.440 It feels like, is everything better? Is everything funner? Is 0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:01.640 everything more awesome? Like how do you kind of view 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:03.120 this year verse? Maybe the years of the best? 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:11.199 Now I'm gonna plead the fifth Okay, okay, like like 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:14.959 that absolute coward, Tony, absolute scholar. 0:17:15.080 --> 0:17:17.280 Yeah, are you kidding me? Yeah? 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:20.440 You got a pardon and you're and you pleaded over 0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:21.320 a hundred times. 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:23.719 Ye got the whit I want to say, McAfee got 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:26.119 to write one hundred and eleven times and for the 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:29.879 next four minutes, the finger on the dumb button, parditional 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:33.800 ending for the next four minutes, this is all he does. 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:34.960 And that's what are you scared of? 0:17:35.040 --> 0:17:36.560 Tony? I thought you were the science. 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:38.600 Yeah, I thought you or I. 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:40.200 Am science And you get up there and you can't 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:42.479 answer a question. Yeah, what do we doing? And how 0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:44.720 much time did the network spend of that? How much 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:47.560 time did they spend on my responses every week on 0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:55.120 my vaccination status, Von Taylor at Travis's wedding? They did 0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:57.439 they do even a minute? Did they do even a 0:17:57.480 --> 0:18:00.159 minute on Tony Fauci. I don't think I've heard, but 0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:03.920 they didn't note. And there was another scandal this offseason too, 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:07.359 involved in a voter for MVP for Coach of the Year. 0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:09.920 How much time do you get did your network span 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:12.080 where did your network spind on it? 0:18:14.720 --> 0:18:16.720 And the minute it goes into are you talking about 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:18.520 our network? All of a sudden, all the guys are 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.400 whe her like, get back to Fauci, Talk about Fauci. 0:18:22.920 --> 0:18:24.040 It's so good. 0:18:25.400 --> 0:18:37.080 It is terrific, fantastic, love every second of it. Everything 0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:41.320 that diminishes Fauci is the right thing. 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:45.000 But you will note, because you've seen it with your 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:47.440 own eyes. The left can't stop. 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:52.040 They will still lionize, they will still support, they will 0:18:52.080 --> 0:19:01.520 still throw all the adulation. It's they invested all of 0:19:01.560 --> 0:19:09.240 their capital into him, they every single bit of capital, 0:19:09.600 --> 0:19:10.840 and now they can't give it up. 0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:14.920 They have to still adore him, they have to still 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:18.120 support him. He is a. 0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:23.399 Proven liar, proven and I do hope he spends the 0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.760 rest of his days in jail. That much I do. 0:19:26.520 --> 0:19:30.000 And it's proven guilty. But the documents show him as 0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:32.800 a liar. And the left still wants to tell us 0:19:32.800 --> 0:19:37.800 how righteous and decent and good you trust the mainstream 0:19:37.840 --> 0:19:41.440 media at your own peril. Truly, I'm Tony Katz. This 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.800 is Tony Katz today. We've got three more things, Tony Katz, 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:47.920 Tony Katz today, an absolute pleasure to be with you, guys. 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:49.320 What are three more things? 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:51.920 These are our stories that should be front page news, 0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:53.720 but because of all the front page news, they don't 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:57.320 make the front page. They're still important. I bring them 0:19:57.359 --> 0:20:01.399 to you. You've got Todd Blam, the acting Attorney General. 0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:05.200 He gets suit the Senate Judiciary Committee party line vote. Well, 0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:09.960 no kidding, Sheldon Whitehouse, who never met an all white 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:13.080 country club, he didn't love say, he said as much. 0:20:13.280 --> 0:20:14.720 We know this is going to pass to the party 0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:16.879 line vote. But let me tell you why I'm still 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.399 so angry and curmudgeonly that. 0:20:20.160 --> 0:20:21.840 I'll get more in that. 0:20:22.000 --> 0:20:25.360 And the nomination of a blanche And you know, there 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:27.320 have been wildfires in Washington state. 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:36.160 It really big stuff. 0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:42.800 And it's been seven hundred buildings, sixty five thousand people 0:20:42.880 --> 0:20:50.640 have been evacuated. This is around Spokane, Spokane, Spokane, Spokane. 0:20:51.800 --> 0:21:01.720 And so the governor Jay Insley, he was going down 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:04.080 the road of well you see climate change, well you 0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:06.040 see climate this and climate. 0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:11.720 That, and then there was a conversation about it. 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.760 Was it some climate activist but really no, no, no, 0:21:14.920 --> 0:21:17.000 they would never do that. This is all climate change, 0:21:17.000 --> 0:21:22.800 climate change. No, this is a thirty seven year old 0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:26.720 who had killed his father in twenty twelve. 0:21:30.400 --> 0:21:35.520 This fire was set by an arsonist. 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:38.160 He has a one million dollar bond as he faces 0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:45.280 a first degree arson charge. That's who the suspect is. 0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:55.200 What it's real devastation. It is horrifying what we're seeing here, 0:21:55.240 --> 0:22:03.000 what we're noticing here. What it does show us is 0:22:03.040 --> 0:22:08.919 that knowing the truth is not what those who are 0:22:08.960 --> 0:22:10.760 ideological or interested in. 0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:17.600 Engaging the ideology is the only thing they're interested in. 0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:20.639 Just say it, hope you're right, and if you're not, 0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:22.000 act like you never said it. 0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.080 Well, climate change is still a problem. Well, climate change 0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:28.840 had just exacerbated the whole thing. That's what happened here. 0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:30.560 This would have been nothing. This would have been a 0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:37.639 weenie roast if if it wasn't for climate change. Really 0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:42.640 is how they act and operate. Why wait for facts, 0:22:42.960 --> 0:22:45.439 Why know what you're talking about when you can just 0:22:45.560 --> 0:22:50.080 engage in insanity. Then we have, of course, the Michigan 0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:56.320 primary going on. Abdul lsied against Haley Stephens. Now Haley 0:22:56.320 --> 0:23:00.840 Stephens is the one who continues to bring us a 0:23:00.880 --> 0:23:05.320 great amount of joy because who else could say this 0:23:05.760 --> 0:23:06.320 so well? 0:23:06.600 --> 0:23:09.200 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy 0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:13.840 and a little bit of cicket to them. 0:23:13.960 --> 0:23:19.080 It's I cannot wait to see her adult swim cartoon. 0:23:19.920 --> 0:23:23.119 It's gonna be It's gonna be so great. 0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:26.080 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy, 0:23:26.440 --> 0:23:27.359 and a little bit of. 0:23:27.440 --> 0:23:28.320 Cicket to them. 0:23:29.400 --> 0:23:34.000 Right, that advice could work for the boardroom as well 0:23:34.040 --> 0:23:34.720 as the bedroom. 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:37.760 A little bit of enthusiasm, a little bit of energy, 0:23:38.119 --> 0:23:39.040 and a little bit of. 0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:42.000 Cicket to them. There you go, there you go. 0:23:42.640 --> 0:23:46.359 Uh so you got her against Abdul al Sayid, who 0:23:46.560 --> 0:23:50.439 is uh it claims to be a capitalist but wants 0:23:50.480 --> 0:23:55.600 a universal health care opposed to monopoly, wants universal healthcare. 0:23:56.720 --> 0:23:59.720 Sure sure we get we get your play we understand 0:23:59.760 --> 0:24:02.359 your connections. We understand the Islama's connections, we understand the 0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:07.880 communist connections. You're supported by the squad. Enough said. Everything 0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:10.840 you're saying about not being a Kami or KAMMYE adjacent 0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:13.480 is a lie. Everything you're saying about capitalism is a lie. 0:24:13.760 --> 0:24:15.600 We get it. You're saying that because you're trying to 0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:17.120 moderate a position to get elected. 0:24:17.359 --> 0:24:19.840 We see you well. 0:24:19.840 --> 0:24:26.960 In the polling, it shows that the former state representative 0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:31.720 of Mike Rodgers, the Republican, would have a lead over 0:24:31.800 --> 0:24:36.440 abdul l Said in a general election, but he would 0:24:36.520 --> 0:24:40.160 be losing to Haley Stevens in a general election. Thus, 0:24:40.880 --> 0:24:43.400 Republicans are hoping that al Sayid pulls this out. 0:24:44.840 --> 0:24:48.720 I never am No, I don't, I don't.
