Now here's the 5 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 3: man who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of 6 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 3: not won, but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast exodens, 7 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 3: the one and only Bill Cunningham. 8 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: All Right, Billy Cunningham, the Great America. Welcome the Sunday night. 9 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: I know my brackets are Dad. Now that Florida has lost, 10 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: got no chance at all. Saint John still going strong, 11 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: and we'll see what happens down the road. But Monday 12 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: tomorrow is going to be one heck of a consequential 13 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 1: date when it comes to the Iranian war. And make 14 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: no mistake about it, this is a justified war for 15 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: good reasons. But nonetheless, the Trumpsters set up some ultimatums 16 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: for tomorrow evening, which is the Hormost Straits must be 17 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: opened or else they're going to bomb. Continue to bomb Iran, 18 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: this time taking out more civilian targets, including its energy infrastructure. 19 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: Plus tomorrow, I guess in the morning I'm not sure, 20 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: but ICE will appear at the airports. I don't know 21 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: about you, but when I travel, I see armed agents 22 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: everywhere constantly, many times with Semitic weapons and ninja outfits. 23 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: I feel comfortable when the police officers around because I'm legal. 24 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: I was born in Covington. I don't mess around. I 25 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: don't have a criminal record, I don't have warrants. Once 26 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: the warns out for me, So if I see a cop, 27 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 1: I'm glad to see him. But Democrats want to take 28 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: the position that illegal aliens might be intimidated to fly 29 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: if they're illegal, and maybe ICE will arrest them. I 30 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: don't know what that's going to be. But tomorrow morning 31 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: and tomorrow night, all hell's breaking loose. Plus Iran tonight 32 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 1: is saying that they're going to take out the desalination 33 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: plants all over the Middle East, which is basically a desert, 34 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: and they're going to make it impossible for the Arab 35 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: neighbors to make any water. In the consequence, the Trumpster 36 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: in Israel would be more harshness dealing with Iran. So 37 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: in the next twenty four hours might be extremely interesting, 38 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: especially since Iran, about twenty four hours ago launched a 39 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 1: missiles that the US UK military bases in the Indian Ocean, 40 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: and they were taken down. But nonetheless they launched toward 41 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: the bases a missile that had a range of over 42 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: twenty five hundred miles, which for years they said they 43 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: did not have. Oil prices tonight are rising. All hell's 44 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: about to break loose. And I always say to my 45 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 1: friends and my buddies, this is a justified war. It 46 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: had been fought of a very long time ago. And 47 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's the only president to have the coyonees and 48 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: the good judgment to do it. And I want this 49 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: done to his logical conclusion for victory. There's no substitute 50 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: for victory. And as MacArthur said in nineteen sixty four, 51 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: sadly only the dead have seen the end of war. 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: What happens in this I have no idea. I know 53 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: America in Israel is winning by any fair measurement. I 54 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 1: watched some of the Sunday morning talk shows storage Stefanopolis, etc. 55 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: I think Jonathan carl was in today. But nonetheless, you 56 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: watch the morning talk shows, you think America is losing. 57 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: Trump doesn't know what he's doing. Iran is winning. By 58 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: not losing, and that somehow this is going to turn 59 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: out the bed for the United States, and I want 60 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: that not to happen, don't you. I want America to win. 61 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: It'd be helpful if the Democrats during war, in the 62 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: first three or four weeks, would support the commander in 63 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: chief and the military during a foreign conflict like this, 64 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: which has been brewing now for forty seven years. But 65 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: the Democrats don't do it. They say it's going to 66 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: be a stalemate. Definition of a stalemate. As we speak tonight, 67 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: there are no military leaders alive that can be identified 68 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 1: in Iran. The president is dead, the vice president is dead, 69 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: All the heads of the Revolutionary Guard are dead. The 70 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: so called Congress has been obliterated. Every general that can 71 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: be located is gone. All the navy ships are at 72 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: the bottom of some ocean. There's no na whatsoever in Iran. 73 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: The air force also has been obliterated. The missile technology 74 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 1: has been taken now by ninety five percent. Every now 75 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: and then a missile will fly, but that's about it. 76 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: The drone manufacturing plants are all gone. And if that's 77 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: the definition of a stalemate, I don't want to see 78 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: a victory by any fair measurement. In the first three 79 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: and a half weeks or so, the score is America 80 00:04:54,320 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: six thousand, the Iranians zero trends to date, US and 81 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: Israel pummeling Iranic will thousands of sorties. This morning, DevCon 82 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: put out that America has done about six thousand sorties 83 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: of fighter bombers and drones, left much of the Iranian 84 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: leadership and war fighting capability and its industry a smoking 85 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: heap of rubble B fifty two bombers which fly slowly 86 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: and are not appropriate for a highly defended target or 87 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: routinely attacking and pounding Iranian targets. The b won the bone, 88 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: which was unused in America's previous wars, is flying with impunity. 89 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: The war hogs have done what they're intended to do, 90 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: and they're doing a great job against the nation's enemies. 91 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: And in fact, right now, the Democrats say quit right now, 92 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: Let those half a ton of Uranian enriched centrifuges that 93 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: look like the tanks on the back of a diver. 94 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: Let those that remain in place. And I do know 95 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: one thing that they're not going to threaten Israel or 96 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: America for a long time. But one thing we can't 97 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: do is leave the war with their intent and knowledge 98 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: in place with the same leadership. If this war had 99 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: not been initiated by Israel and America, their side would 100 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: have attacked with nuclear weapons when available. And I watched 101 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: the interview this morning with the head of the IAEA 102 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: International Atomic Energy Agency out of Switzerland who said that 103 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: they had enough nuclear material to produce eleven nuclear bombs 104 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: that could be delivered by a truck, by a railroad, 105 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: by a boat, or by a ship, or by a 106 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 1: plane or by a missile. And those individuals in charge 107 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: of the suicidal homicidal cult that leads Iron would have 108 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: done it. And the US we sat on our nuclear 109 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: weapons for decades as the Iranians killed thousands of Americans 110 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: main tens of thousands credit havoc all over the world. 111 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: The Moolaws, as soon as they would have gotten a 112 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: nuclear weapon, would not let it sit out in the cold. 113 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: They would have fired them toward Israel, and Israel has 114 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: more than one hundred nuclear weapons. They would obliterated the 115 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: entire Middle East and the warld would go into a 116 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: dark age from which we may not recover for five 117 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: hundred years. So this president deserves great credit for what 118 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: he's doing, trying to save the world from this menace 119 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 1: that every president since nineteen seventy nine had to be done. 120 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: This has to happen. There's no choice. We have to 121 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: do it now. In the back of my mind, you know, 122 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: the great American, which I am a great American every 123 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: now and then feel asself I'm a contrarian. And a 124 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: question I asked a few days ago is what if 125 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: the Iranian people themselves do not want to be free, 126 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: it will not grab the mantle of freedom and carry 127 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: it forward. You might recall that there was a time 128 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: in a when the Bush administration with the people of 129 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: Iraq would be greeting us as liberators. When we took 130 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: out Sade Mussein. The Iraqi people, you might recall, took 131 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 1: down Sad of Mussein statues, beat them with shoes, and 132 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: they also had elections. You might recall in Iraq there 133 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: were men and women with their thumb put into an 134 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: ink jar to demonstrate that they had voted. And that 135 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: went on for about a year or two. Because of 136 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: the diplomatic failures of Bush and Cheney and Rumsfeld and others, 137 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: they eliminated the system of government inside of Iraq, which 138 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: caused the so called newfound freedoms to be dissipated, and 139 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: that suddenly civil war broke out, reverting back to centuries 140 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: old tribal warfare with each other. That's what happened in Iraq. 141 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: Having never experienced freedom, the Iraqi people didn't know what 142 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,599 Speaker 1: they all to do. Most of human history, like it 143 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: or not, is riddled with a pressure. It is not 144 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: about freedom. Same thing in Afghanistan. You might recall that 145 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan, as oppressive as the Taliban has been today, 146 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 1: most Afghans are living worst lives, especially women and girls 147 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: who are bought and sold based upon their virginity, and 148 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: most live in remote, unconnected places. That government in Kabbo 149 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: was not touched, and you might recall we had a 150 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: little bit of success in the beginning, but after some 151 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,839 Speaker 1: twenty years, the Afghan people had now reverted back to 152 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,319 Speaker 1: the century old tribalism and that they're probably worse off 153 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,439 Speaker 1: now than they were before. I hope someone's trying to 154 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: figure this out. America has two hundred and fifty years 155 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: of freedom of democracy. We're a republic, we vote, and 156 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: this going on for about two hundred and fifty years. 157 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 1: But Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan have no history of this whatsoever. 158 00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: They've been ruled by kings and by queens and prints 159 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: and princesses, or in nineteen seventy nine, ruled by the 160 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 1: eye tools. And so we like to think that at 161 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: some point the running people arise and quote, seize power 162 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: and dominate. Now, how does that happen? The running people 163 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: have no guns, they don't have a Second Amendment, and 164 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: America has four hundred million guns. They have none. So 165 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: if the religious monster stay in charge and the people 166 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 1: quote the people do not take over, things might be 167 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: worse than what. I don't want them ever to have 168 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: a nuclear program or fun terrorism around the world. But 169 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: at some point, as Donald Trump has said, this is 170 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: up to them. It's up to them at some point. 171 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: But them being the running people. But how many times 172 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: have you seen examples in the past when the running 173 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: people took to the streets and over a period of 174 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: time it appeared as if things were going to change, 175 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: and none of it changed. What happened is a lot 176 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: of them were killed. Like a few months ago, thirty 177 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: to forty thousand were killed. Last week there were some 178 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 1: Olympic wrestlers hung as an example of what happens if 179 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: you oppose what's going on, and they wanted to send 180 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: the message internally. You know what, This is what happened 181 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: if you oppose us. Many times over history, this has 182 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: happened with the Iranian people. They have arisen, They've tried 183 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: to do their best, and guess what, it did not 184 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: work out. Every few years, the Iranians would arise, go 185 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 1: to the streets, their government would kill them, quash them. 186 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: A bunch of people, thousands would get killed. The world 187 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: would condemn it, then lather rints, repeat, nothing would come 188 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,719 Speaker 1: of it. Here we are again, to my knowledge, right now, 189 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: there's some protests going on, but not large protests. That's 190 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: because they're afraid to go outside, wouldn't you be. That's 191 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: why America's Second Amendment is so important and so strong. 192 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: The regime, the religious fanatics calling upon God to rape 193 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: and kill, has no problem killing their own people. Failure 194 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: is not an option to this point for us, we 195 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: can't believe. We simply can't leave and say, okay, you 196 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: have a thousand and half a ton of materials to 197 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: make atomic weapons, you have the knowledge how to do it, 198 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: and now they're incentivized more than ever to drop bombs 199 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: all over the world, especially in Israel, because it says suicidal, homicidal, 200 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: religious cult in charge. Wow. So I hope President Trump 201 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: knows what he's doing. Should this have been done, absolutely, 202 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: Ultimately it will be up to the Iranian people, which 203 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: rarely happens, to take over their own government. We thought 204 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: that would happen in Iraq and Afghanistan. Did it No, 205 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 1: And now we're between a rock and a hard place. 206 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: Having done what we had to do, we must finish 207 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: the job. We can't leave with the same regime in charge. 208 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: Now they're more incentivized than ever to do what they're 209 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: going to do. It might it must be regime change 210 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:14,599 Speaker 1: unless you have the Ayatolas, the Mulas, suicideal homicidal that 211 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: will say we're going to change. Would you accept their 212 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: word for it? I don't think so. I'm glad we're 213 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: doing this. And if the Democrats were pulling in the 214 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 1: same direction as the Republicans, life would be a whole 215 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: lot better. Part of the strategy of the Iranians is 216 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 1: to have the Democrats do their bidding in the Congress 217 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: to shut down the government here to cause havoc confusion 218 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: and chaos in America and the Democrats who dance into 219 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: the music of the Iranian corrupt leadership by making it 220 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: look as if America is completely divided about whether to 221 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 1: continue to prosecute the war. That's part of what's going on. 222 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: So I'll be with you every Sunday night, God willing, 223 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: and away we go for tomorrow, which is the Monday. 224 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: The ultimatum forty eight hours is up tomorrow evening and 225 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: then ice in the airports. The Democrats go nuts on 226 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: that one too. How about pulling the same direction when 227 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: American soldiers and the troops are getting killed and shot 228 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: at on site at least for maybe two or three 229 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: months for the War Powers Act, two to three months. 230 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 1: Right now we're about four weeks into it again February 231 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: to twenty eighth, right three weeks into it, the fourth week. 232 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: How about pulling the same direction and saying, we support 233 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: the commander in chief. What do you need to get 234 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: the job done? Instead of that the Democrats are the 235 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: obstructionist and the King Jeffrey's got a serious case of 236 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: the gougu When Donald Trump said the Democrats in Congress 237 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: are enemies of the people, and now he's telling the 238 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: President to shut the hell up, which plays right into 239 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 1: the hand of the nation's adversaries. And right now the 240 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: adversaries are banking upon the Democratic Party to make it 241 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: look as if this war's got to end now. How 242 00:14:59,080 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: does it end? 243 00:14:59,640 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 4: Now? 244 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: It's nice to consider it. How does it end tonight? 245 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: How does it end now? Leaving the same group in 246 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: charge with the same suicidal and homicidal theories about the Jews, 247 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 1: about Christians, about the West. How does it end now? 248 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: It can't. 249 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 4: Now. 250 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: We must proceed and obliterate as much as possible the 251 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: Iranian leadership, knowing that the Iranian people will bear the 252 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: brunt of most of this. Take a short break, get 253 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: your reaction to this plus more. What's of great guests 254 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: coming up tonight later on, including Erica Sansey of defending 255 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: education and Dan Doyle on energy prices. This guy's an expert. 256 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: I've watched them on Fox repeatedly, and right now the 257 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: energy markets are going to go crazy, and the media 258 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: is focused on what it is today's prices nationalwide. It 259 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: was three dollars and ninety four cents, and I wouldn't 260 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: be he said he's going to come up. I watched 261 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: him on Fox about a week ago, he said he 262 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if energy prices he got up to 263 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: five dollars a gallon. And so the forces of evil 264 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: will rely upon our media to only broadcast of failures 265 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: and not all the successes. Let's continue with more eight 266 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: sixty six six four seven seven three three seven, Bill 267 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: cunning and the Great American with you and all great 268 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: Americans every Sunday. Can you tell me how this thing's 269 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: going to end with Iran over the next three to 270 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: four months, Because there's there's two or three scenarios. One 271 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 1: of them is great, the other two not so good. 272 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: It can't end with guerrilla warfare. It can't end with 273 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: the same iatolas in charge. It's got to be completely 274 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: if different iatolas exist other than those that are suicidal 275 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: and homicidal, I like to know who they are and 276 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: put them in charge and with the Iranian people actually arise. 277 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: It's happened every few years without good consequences. In fact, 278 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: it's awful consequences. They don't have a Second Amendment. The 279 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Iranian people have no weapons, no guns, and there's about 280 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand members of the Revolutiontionary Guard 281 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: committed to killing as many people as possible amazine being 282 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: in a religion and part of the dictates of that 283 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: religion is to kill as many innocent people as possible 284 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: in cold blood, to rape women, and to burn babies alive. 285 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 1: And that's the religion that you're a part of. Wow. 286 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: But that's where it is. And for those who say, 287 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,880 Speaker 1: like a keem Jeffries, leave now stop it, come home, 288 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: what impact would that have upon the world saying the 289 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: next six months to a year, would those left behind 290 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: in charge in Iran? Would they change their attitude saying 291 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: we lost you one. As General Jack Keene said this 292 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: morning with Maria and I listen to General Jack Keen 293 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 1: as if I'm a child at the foot of a master. 294 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: He said, you win a war when you break the 295 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: enemies resolve to fight. In Vietnam, that never happened in 296 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 1: the Korean War, fifty percent of it happened, fifty percent 297 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: of it didn't happen. We never did break the will 298 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: of the NVA and the viet Cong to fight, and 299 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: after ten to twelve years we left in great defeat. 300 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: We don't win wars anymore unless you're Donald Trump. In June, 301 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: what he did there to the nuclear facility, hoping it 302 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: would delay them. Well, now we're about nine months later 303 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: in the back again. Or what happened in Venezuela was 304 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: truly unbelievable, Maduro, My gosh, think about that one. But 305 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:29,919 Speaker 1: this is a different animal. 306 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 4: We have to do it. 307 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: It's nasty, it's not good. It's going to take a while. 308 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: We need patients, need the Congress to step up and 309 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: fund it. We're dealing with the civilizational issue of the 310 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: Iranians who now soon will have a nuclear weapon that 311 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: they will destroy the world with without questioning any doubt 312 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: in your mind. The IAEA said it this morning that 313 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: they were going to marry about eleven nuclear bombs onto 314 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: a missile, which they have the technology to do, and 315 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: or put one on a boat, a ship, a plane, 316 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: a truck, a railroad and kill a whole bunch of 317 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: people in Israel. That's what they want to do, and 318 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: they're telling is they're going to do it. It told 319 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: us for forty seven years that to America it's gonna happen. 320 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, Trump's got the guts to confront it. Let's 321 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: continue with your calls next. We have three lines open 322 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: to eight six six six four seven seven three three seven, 323 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: Give me your prediction. How does the war end? When 324 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: do we know it's ending? And uh, do you want 325 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: to stay the course until victory or give up like 326 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,719 Speaker 1: the Democrats go cunning in with you every single day. 327 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: Then we do have a coalition the willing. The NATO 328 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,639 Speaker 1: nations are stepping forward, the Gulf States are with us. 329 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: They understand what's happening, but it's going to take It 330 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: could take months for this to occur. And I wonder 331 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: if we the American people, do you have the ability 332 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 1: to wait for something worthwhile, to take short term pain 333 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: for long term gain if it comes taken down this 334 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: regime in Iran, which will have great impact all over 335 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: the world. And when I listen to Dan Doyle, my 336 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: energy expert coming up later with on Fox News, he said, 337 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: even if this war would end well in the next 338 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 1: two weeks, that the infrastructure of oil would take up 339 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: to a year to recover one year, And I wonder 340 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: if the American people have the patience for that when 341 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: the issue is so profound. I have my doubts and 342 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 1: will the Iranian people arise is won and fight knowing 343 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 1: they're likely to be killed in the process. Or or 344 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: hung and what does it look like to take over 345 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: the Iranian government? Who's going to take it over? These 346 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: are difficult issues. Doesn't have to be done, absolutely, it's 347 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: the existential threat. And after our experiences in Vietnam, Iraq 348 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: and Afghanistan, as a great American, I'm extremely reluctant to say, 349 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 1: let's go and have regime change. And make no mistake 350 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: about it, this is about regime change. Otherwise we're right 351 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: back to where we were a year or two from now, 352 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: and we can't have that. It must end now. It 353 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: must end now, and the Democrats are going to take 354 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,680 Speaker 1: political advantage of this to try to seize control of 355 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 1: the House in the Senate in November. If things are 356 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: not going well by i don't know, June or July, 357 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: which is a possibility that the Republicans will be wiped out, 358 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: and if we have no chance of success, much like 359 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: in twenty oh six, after six years of George Bush 360 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: and Dick Cheney, we couldn't take it anymore, and all 361 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the Democrats come in. Obama's elected in 362 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 1: eight and the rest is history. And it's a problem. 363 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:32,439 Speaker 1: They have patients when we're dealing with issues that affect 364 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: us in the pocketbook. In fact, I'm surprised gasoline's only 365 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: about three seventy five a gallon in Cincinnati, Ohio. Of course, 366 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: in California, I have many listeners there, It's over five 367 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: dollars a gallon already and going up because of the 368 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 1: policies of the liberal Democrats that control California. Do we 369 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: have the patience to accept something that in the long 370 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 1: run will be good for the country. I have my 371 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: doubts whether that's the case. I have my doubts, and 372 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,439 Speaker 1: liberalism is calls many harms. By the way, the other night, 373 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: Bill maher on CNN as having more and more lucid 374 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: moments on a liberal a couple Saturday nights ago, talking 375 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: about how modern liberals are crazy. He rattles off seven 376 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: or eight things that liberals believe in that's hurting the country. 377 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: Danny boy Gleeson, let's hear from Let's hear from Bill 378 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 1: maher on that. 379 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 5: Don't get what abolish the police, tear down statues of Lincoln. 380 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 5: Maybe give communism another shot, get rid of the border patrol, 381 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 5: get rid of capitalism. 382 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: White supremacy has never been worse. Gender is always just 383 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 1: a social. 384 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 5: Construct, it's okay to have penises in the women's swimming 385 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 5: pool and women's prisons. 386 00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: Oh no, it's not that I am old. It's that 387 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: your ideas are stupid. So if you take all those 388 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 1: seven or eight principles, the modern Democratic Party would answer 389 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: yes to all of them. Among the most stupid, of course, 390 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,359 Speaker 1: as women having to share spaces with men. In fact, 391 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: you might recall one of my favorite senator, a senator unitor, 392 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 1: John Kennedy. About a year and a half ago, he 393 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: had an opportunity to quiz a liberal female Democratic judge 394 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: put up by Joe Biden for a high judicial office. 395 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: It's only about a minute and forty five seconds long, 396 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: but explains to me the status of modern liberalism. Danny 397 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 1: Boy Gleeson for Senator John Kennedy. 398 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 6: Hit it. 399 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 7: Do you remember an inmate named William McClain, also known 400 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 7: as July Justine Shelby. 401 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 8: Yes, I know who you're referring to. 402 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 7: Okay, mister McClain raped a child, didn't he? 403 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 8: Thirty years ago the petitioner in the habeas case before me, 404 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 8: did he rape the child? He pled guilty to that crime. Yes, 405 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 8: it's a point. 406 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 9: And then he raped the seventeen, he raped a little boy, right, 407 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 9: I believe that's correct. 408 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 8: I believe he pled guilty to day hours of Section islance. 409 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 7: And then he raped a seventeen year old girl. 410 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 8: Right again, This case was handled by the state court 411 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 8: in Indiana. 412 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 7: But I've just asked into the facts. 413 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 8: I believe. 414 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 7: Don't stall on me. 415 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 10: Now, did he rape a seventeen year old girl or 416 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 10: not after raping a nine year old boy? 417 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 8: I believe that's what he pled guilty to. 418 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 9: Okay, And then he went to prison, didn't he, Yes, 419 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 9: the petitioner, and then he came out and he sent 420 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 9: child porn basically adults raping little children to another sex offender, 421 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 9: and he was sent back to prison. 422 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 8: Right the petitioner pled guilty to was sent back to prison. Well, 423 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 8: that case was in the federal system. So was he 424 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 8: sent back to prison, Yes, this time to federal prison. 425 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 7: Thank you. 426 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:51,320 Speaker 10: And then he decided to transition and he became a 427 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 10: female and started going by Jami Justine Shelby. Is that right? 428 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 8: Yes? 429 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 10: And miss Shelby said, I don't want to go to 430 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 10: a male prison. I want to go to a female prison. 431 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 10: And the board of prison said, what planet did you 432 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,479 Speaker 10: parachute it in from you're going to a male prison 433 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 10: with this kind of record, and you sent him to 434 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 10: a female prison, didn't you. You said that the Board 435 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 10: of Prisons was trying to violate Miss Shelby, former mister 436 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 10: mcclaim's constitutional rights, didn't you. 437 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 8: I issued a report and recommendation to the district judge 438 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 8: recommending that the district judge transferred the petitioner to a 439 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 8: women's facility. 440 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: Well that's modern liberalism, right there. So a rapist of 441 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: a boy, the rapist of a teenage girl, a sex pervert, 442 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: was put by that particular judicial officer into a female prison. 443 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 1: That's where he or she wanted to go. And she said, 444 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: put him in a female prison. He identifies as a female, 445 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: having raped a boy, raped the girl, kitty porn, etc. 446 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: That's an example of modern liberalism. They Keeme Jeffrey style liberalism. 447 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: That more and more in the American people I think 448 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: have figured out it's not serious, it's not the way 449 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: things ought to be. It's wrong, it's awful. So let's 450 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 1: take some calls and I want to get your reaction 451 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 1: on all these issues, including what's happening in Cuba and 452 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 1: Cuba by the way is being inundated with large numbers 453 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: of left wing groups that are showing up right now, 454 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 1: including a code Pink taking in supplies to the Cubans. 455 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 1: That's an example of socialism and its failures, along with 456 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 1: Venezuela failure along Greenland, which is a failed state bought 457 00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: and paid for by Denmark. And eighty percent of the 458 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: citizens in Greenland are on public assistance, about the same 459 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: number in Venezuela, about the same number in Porto Rico, 460 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: by the same number in Cuba. Why in the world 461 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: we want to take Cuba and make it the fifty 462 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,479 Speaker 1: first date or Greenland is beyond me. The only one 463 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 1: that makes sense to me is Venezuela because of the 464 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,160 Speaker 1: oil supplies. Number one oil rich, provable barrels of oil 465 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: is in Venezuela. They can pay their own way. It 466 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 1: would take Cubans fifty years to recover without oil. It 467 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 1: would take Venezuela fifty years to recover and without changing. 468 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: It's going to take California fifty years to recover, in 469 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: ILLINOI fifty years to recover. It's awful. New York City 470 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: Governor Hochell the other day begging those with incomes to 471 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: move back to New York City, like my friend Sean Hannity, 472 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: who got out alive because he couldn't take it anymore. 473 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: And so the socialism and the liberalism you see in 474 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: every major American city is not totally dissimilar to what 475 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 1: happened in Cuba and what happened in Venezuela. The difference 476 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: is many of these democratic cities have had normal democrats 477 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 1: until the last ten or fifteen years. You know, Richard J. Daily, 478 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 1: the dailies, the mayors of Chicago was somewhat normal compared 479 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 1: to the crop in there. Now, same thing in New 480 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,879 Speaker 1: York City went through twenty years of Rudy in Bloomberg 481 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,879 Speaker 1: made some sense after eight years of Deblasio. Preparing yourself 482 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: now for a Coami whose wife is an AMA sympathizer. 483 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: Give our cities another fifteen or twenty years of these policies, 484 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: it'll look like Cuba. It'll be emptied. I'm not sure 485 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:30,200 Speaker 1: America can be a great nation if our three major 486 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: cities are in collapse. Brandon Johnson in Chicago, according to 487 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:37,879 Speaker 1: Financial Times, may have to file bankruptcy, have no money. 488 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: New York City, I think I have the stats here 489 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: for New York City, which to me are truly unbelievable. 490 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 1: How much money being spent in New York City compared to, 491 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: for example, the state of Florida. And I think my 492 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: friend Sean Hannity had these numbers on the other day. 493 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: But essentially, look at New York City. New York City 494 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: has approximately eight million people living in New York City 495 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: eight million. The entire state of Florida is about twenty 496 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: four million. So Floridians are three times as large as 497 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 1: New York City, not in New York states as New 498 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: York City. So Florida is three times larger. And the 499 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: annual budget is significantly less in Florida for the entire 500 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: state than the city of New York New York's eight 501 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: million people. City of New York government spends one hundred 502 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: and twenty seven billion, and the state of Florida it's 503 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventeen billion, ten billion less with three 504 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: times as many people. And so to solve this crisis, 505 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: Mom Donnie says, let's spend more money and tax more. 506 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: It's not going to work. It's going to collapse. New 507 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: York City will go bankrupt all like it did under 508 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: Dinkins about forty five fifty years ago. After years and years, 509 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 1: New York City went bankrupt, and it's going to happen again, 510 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: like Chicago, like Los Angeles. And so I hope the 511 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: citizens in Californi and you understand, you can't stand the 512 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: course you're on. Otherwise, after another twenty years, you look 513 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: like Cuba, or Venezuela or Puerto Rico. The great majority 514 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 1: of the citizens in all those places are on public 515 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:16,080 Speaker 1: assistance one type or another. In Minnesota, Minneapolis, another failed city, 516 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: failed state, goes the money being spent. And before I 517 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: take some calls, we just passed a few days ago 518 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 1: the mark of thirty nine trillion dollars in debt. The 519 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: accumulated American debt is thirty nine trillion. Within the next 520 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,479 Speaker 1: nine months, by the first of the year, we're going 521 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: to be at forty trillion dollars we're gonna owe in debt. 522 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: The biggest growing item in the federal budget is interest payments. 523 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: On the deficit. We cannot afford the life that we're in. 524 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: Both parties could come together and solve it, but they 525 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 1: spend each other time calling each other names. Some of 526 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: the things that Kem jeffres Is called the president of disgusting. 527 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: Shut your mouth. That kind of stuff playing in the 528 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: hands of America's enemies. So we got problems, major, major problems. 529 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: Let's continue to go to William and Alabama Role Tide. 530 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: William and Alabama, Role Tide. Welcome to the Bill Cunningham Show. William, 531 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: how are you. 532 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 6: Great? Great? 533 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 11: Thank you, Bill Roadside. But before I say anything, first, 534 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 11: I would like to start off. I say, and I 535 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 11: voted for Trump three times. I was maga back in 536 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 11: twenty fourteen when he first announced his first term was fantastic. 537 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 11: With that said, I have a nephew right now that's 538 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 11: on the battleship in the Strait Foremost. I've got a son, 539 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 11: a young son that's military Army that he's reserved Guard, 540 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 11: but he is active, and so I've always been a 541 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 11: big support. What I cannot wrap my head around is 542 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 11: why everybody needs to push this. And I'm happy for 543 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,959 Speaker 11: the Iranian Christians. They just got free and hopefully they 544 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 11: utilized that opportunity that was given to them. But he's 545 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 11: running right now and he lost his base. And I 546 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 11: can tell you I'm deep Alabama. We're always read, we're 547 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,959 Speaker 11: always conservative, we are big Trump and I can tell 548 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 11: you right now he is losing his whole base and people. 549 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 11: They used to love him and think that he was 550 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 11: a god. Said the situation where the Epstein files how 551 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 11: he waxed over that protected all his friends redacted the 552 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 11: files said it was a hoax. He had first that 553 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 11: right there, lost the trust. Then what's setting in the 554 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 11: anger as now he's talking about ground troops asking for 555 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 11: two hundred more billion dollars. And I think that I 556 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 11: studied this stuff extensively, and I can tell you this 557 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 11: stuff is gonna brew over there like a small fire, 558 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 11: and then it's gonna aspiral a lot of control and 559 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 11: it's gonna lead to a world war with Russia, China, 560 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 11: withth Korea, a total coalition. They're building a coalition that's 561 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:57,440 Speaker 11: gonna come against America and it's gonna be us against everybody. 562 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 11: And we just saw what NATO did. They all left 563 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 11: us out. Nobody wanted to help. So it's gonna be 564 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 11: a bar surprember of the House. Olive os. They take 565 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 11: money from a pack they have been bom paid for 566 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 11: by Israel. Trump's daughter converted to Judaism, and the White 567 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 11: House Official Records says that Trumpere converted. 568 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 1: No he didn't, no he did no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 569 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: he didn't do that. He's the only president with Jewish grandchildren. 570 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: But Donald Trump is not Jewish. In fact, this morning 571 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: I watched NATO Secretary General Mark Rutt on Sunday talk 572 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: about the NATO nations joining us. He said, the great majority, 573 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: he said this on CBS has faced the nation. Margan Brennan. 574 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: He said, I understand the frustration of times, but again 575 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: I want you to understand that NATO will stand with 576 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 1: President Trump on this issue, and so we're not alone. 577 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: In fact, NATO has joined us along with the Golf nations. 578 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: I don't think you can describe the joiners. Hold on, well, 579 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: I don't think you can describe the Golf nations, the 580 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: Arab of nations as being pro Israel. They're looking after 581 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: their own interest. And so when NATO is joining Donald Trump, 582 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: and the five Golf nations are with Donald Trump, and 583 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: also India, Mody is with Donald Trump, Japan is with 584 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. And so I don't know which way this 585 00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 1: is going to turn out, but they would have got 586 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: a nuclear weapon, they would have used it, and Donald Trump. 587 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 1: Every president before Trump said they can never get a 588 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: nuclear weapon. I watched the head of the I A e. A. 589 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: This morning talk about the fact they have enough nuclear 590 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,200 Speaker 1: physical material now to create eleven bombs that they put 591 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: on a ship, on a boat, on unless they're stopped. 592 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: And so I don't buy the idea that somehow the 593 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: Jews are in charge, the Jews, the magnificent Jews, are 594 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 1: manipulating us. That's not the case at all. I don't 595 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: think Saudi Arabia, the UAE Bahrain cutter, I don't think 596 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:55,879 Speaker 1: they're manipulated by the Jews. 597 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,680 Speaker 12: Do you do you? 598 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 1: Joe Ken, I wouldn't pay attention to Joe Kidd one't bit. 599 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't pay attention to him at all, none, zero, But. 600 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 11: He was Trump hired him, so tired him. 601 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 1: Well, he's under criminal investigation for Lencoln material and he 602 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,280 Speaker 1: watched Joe about a year ago. He sounded like me tonight, 603 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: but all of a sudden he flipped the other way. Now, 604 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: I William, you got kids that you got kids that 605 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 1: I understand you're concerned greatly about what's going on. But 606 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 1: the world is coming together tonight against Iran. Uh. It's 607 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: not the case that we're alone. The world is with us, 608 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:40,399 Speaker 1: because the UN Secretary General this morning said NATO will 609 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: be with Donald Trump. That's what he said. Now, so 610 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: you picture this thing, is that are the Jews manipulating Japan? 611 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 11: Well, I know, I know people like Willing Williams that 612 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 11: are out there. 613 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 7: Uh uh uh. 614 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:59,800 Speaker 11: Basically h Liddy Graham. I'm sorry he's after threatening everybody. 615 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 11: He just said, al with Israel in all, staying with Israel. 616 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 11: We need to move all our stuff over there. And 617 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 11: if y'all are not with Israel. 618 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 13: I'm not with y'all. 619 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 11: Not custodies in the same way Lindsey Graham. All these 620 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 11: people they got an allegiance or Disrael first allegians. And 621 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 11: I don't understand how a country that's nine million people, 622 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 11: that's what we have. We have states over here that 623 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 11: have more than not many people. New York City has 624 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,799 Speaker 11: more than how many people we're letting this little bitty 625 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 11: country is the tail wagging the dog. 626 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,240 Speaker 1: William might disagree with you, uh. NATO Secretary John Remark 627 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 1: right on Sunday offered a full throated support of Donald 628 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: Trump's military efforts against Iran. That's the NATO head of NATO. Factually, 629 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: I think you're wrong. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday, 630 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: and you may be a call. There was a college student, 631 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: a female that was murdered a couple of days ago 632 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: in Chicago. This story will die quickly. I llegal immigrant 633 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: accused of killing a life Iola student released under Joe Biden. 634 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,160 Speaker 1: Jose Medina Medina of Venezuela national was arrested for shoplifting 635 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,799 Speaker 1: and other crimes about two or three years ago. He's 636 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: twenty five years old here illegally from Chicago, Venezuela, and 637 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: he was released. He's also being quarantined for potentially contagious condition. 638 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:24,800 Speaker 1: The woman, Chridan Gorman, was murdered about one thirty in 639 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:28,160 Speaker 1: the morning in and around Chicago campus of Iola, and 640 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:32,399 Speaker 1: the person who killed him seemingly is an illegal immigrant here. 641 00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 1: May I use the term illegally. It should not have 642 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: been here. It should not be here. And by the way, 643 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: William of Alabama, I have respect for your viewpoint, I 644 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 1: disagree with it. I think about eight ninety percent of 645 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: megaworld supports Donald Trump. That means ten to twenty percent 646 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 1: do not, and you're probably one of them, which I get. 647 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 1: I think you're wrong, but you have the right to speak. 648 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 1: Let's continue with more.

So, first of all, 665 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:18,479 Speaker 1: describe the impact of Cesar Chavez before we talk about 666 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 1: his pecadillos. How important was Cesar Chavez to the liberal movement, 667 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: especially in California. 668 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, he's sort of like a household name. Obviously, 669 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 12: there's an official state holiday named after him. He's known 670 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 12: largely as a labor activist and somebody who stood up 671 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 12: for farm workers. And as with so many icons, and 672 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 12: it seems to be a bigger problem on the left, 673 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 12: they become sort of almost saints, and so when they 674 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 12: teach them to children, they overlook all of the complexities 675 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 12: of the person and instead they sort of them and 676 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,799 Speaker 12: teach them as heroes, including you know, having entire curriculum 677 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 12: based on these people and on their quote unquote values. 678 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,320 Speaker 12: And that's always risky because you know, the truth is 679 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 12: usually much more complicated. And when you're telling kindergarteners in 680 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 12: first and second grader that they should live their lives 681 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 12: the way that Caesar Shavez did, and when you're you know, 682 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 12: giving them lessons that again say that they are based 683 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,760 Speaker 12: completely around the quote unquote core values of Caesar Chavez, 684 00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 12: a fall from grace like what we just saw creates 685 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 12: a problem. 686 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 1: And this comes from the New York Times, which if 687 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 1: they say it, god knows it must be accurate. But 688 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: they sent a team of reporters to examine some of 689 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 1: these claims. You see, says our Chavez. He was a 690 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: farm worker icon who wanted to organize farm workers, especially 691 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 1: in California, and he lived a long life. Unlike King 692 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: and Kennedy, he lived a long life. And that there 693 00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: are there are schools named more than one hundred California 694 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 1: public schools. Dozens more nationwide are named after Chavez. Many 695 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:10,360 Speaker 1: districts spelled Character Foundation, social emotional learning SEL programs around 696 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 1: Ceesar Chavez. So what did Cesar Chavez do in reality 697 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: that the public didn't know at the time, or maybe 698 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: they didn't know but didn't want to report it. 699 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 12: Well, it appears that he raped minors, and it appears 700 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 12: that he was a sexual predator. And according to much 701 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 12: of what I've read, I mean, there's emails going back 702 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 12: ten years of people who were very familiar with Caesarshavas 703 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 12: and with his foundation and all of its work. You 704 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 12: know already talking about knowing all of this to be true. 705 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 12: So this took a long time for it to come 706 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 12: out publicly for I'm sure lots of different reasons. But 707 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 12: within that community it was well known that there were 708 00:41:53,440 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 12: big problems with him related to sexual predation and having 709 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 12: sex with minors. And you know that has now of 710 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 12: course burst onto the scene. And what's actually sort of 711 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 12: fascinating is how quickly, you know, his supporters are sort 712 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 12: of working to scrub his name from everything. It's funny. 713 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,439 Speaker 12: I had done some research about him late last week, 714 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 12: looked at the Caesar Shavis Foundation. I was looking at 715 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 12: the curriculum, which was largely around social studies, English language arts, 716 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 12: and social emotional learning, well and ethnic studies. Of course, 717 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 12: I go to pull it up tonight in preparation for 718 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 12: this interview, and it's gone. All the curriculum is gone, 719 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:44,320 Speaker 12: everything's about their education fund gone, it's all dead lengths 720 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 12: giving a four oh for you know, page error. So 721 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 12: I mean that right there was was quick. And we 722 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 12: see them again, like you know, already changing the name 723 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 12: of the holiday. A bunch of these schools are in 724 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 12: talks already what to do. But the fact that they're 725 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 12: named after him we see and we actually see people 726 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 12: covering up his name on monuments, all with in less 727 00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 12: than a week. 728 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: Well, the sad part is this was something known at 729 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 1: the time. I guess much like President John F. Kennedy 730 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 1: or much like Martin Luther King Jr. At least they 731 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 1: weren't miners that they weren't doing their dalliances with And 732 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 1: there's a woman named Garcia who's now ninety five years old, 733 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,520 Speaker 1: whore kind of at least two times. She says Chavez 734 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 1: sexually assaulted her. And there's numerous other women to come forward. 735 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: And we're talking about girls that were thirteen, fourteen, fifteen 736 00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,360 Speaker 1: years old when Chavez was thirty five. And it was 737 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: known at the time, but these women and others did 738 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,040 Speaker 1: not want to make it public because the image was 739 00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 1: so good and so strong, and the left would not 740 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,239 Speaker 1: go below the covers and see reality. To me, that's 741 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: the worst part. Kennedy had his problems, as did Martin. 742 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: Luther King Jr. Had his problems, but I'm not sure 743 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 1: they had underage girls, so that the King. We'll talk 744 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: about that in a moment. But isn't the worst part 745 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 1: that in the sixties and seventies, the inside of Chavez's 746 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 1: camp as farm workers knew what he was doing. But 747 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,240 Speaker 1: the media likely would have known if they would have asked. 748 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: But did the media ask and investigate like the Times 749 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 1: did in the sixties and seventies, or wasn't simply not known? 750 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 12: I don't know what I do not know if there 751 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 12: was any sort of spotlight or media work on this. 752 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,280 Speaker 12: All I know is that there were you know, somebody 753 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 12: did so got their hands on some emails, and there 754 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:40,440 Speaker 12: was definitely discussion about this as far back as ten years. So, 755 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 12: I mean, I'm hardly a Caesar Shavia expert. I didn't 756 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 12: grow up in California. I don't tend to get all 757 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 12: rah rah rah about these icons to begin with. But again, 758 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:54,799 Speaker 12: it's this problem where and I'm looking at it from 759 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:59,800 Speaker 12: the angle of schools, where they overly simplify people to 760 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 12: young children, which is already stupid, right, Like, you can 761 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,479 Speaker 12: talk to kids about policies, you can talk to kids 762 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 12: about people in history and things that they did. You 763 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:12,399 Speaker 12: can teach them important things about them without sanctifying them. 764 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 12: I mean, we even thought this with George Floyd in 765 00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 12: recent years, where they would discuss him, you know, as 766 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 12: something that he wasn't in an effort to perpetuate a 767 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 12: narrative and support a specific cause, et cetera. But it 768 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,760 Speaker 12: really does do kids. I Mean, one of the problems 769 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 12: is that teaching young kids things that aren't really developmentally 770 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 12: appropriate is a problem in and of itself because you 771 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 12: kind of have to simplify maybe more than you want to. 772 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,759 Speaker 12: But even with these older students, right, there's never room 773 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 12: for complexity and for complex discussion, for separating, you know, 774 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 12: the person from whatever it is that they did on 775 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 12: a policy level, or to change the direction or the 776 00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:58,160 Speaker 12: trajectory of history. Instead, it becomes like you kind of 777 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 12: have to buy the whole product. And that's not good 778 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 12: because these are all human beings, and eventually, you know, 779 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,280 Speaker 12: we all have to learn that nobody's perfect, and everybody 780 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 12: has their flaws, and in some cases those flaws are 781 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 12: gigantic and massive and enough to have people scrubbing their 782 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 12: names off monuments. 783 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,040 Speaker 4: Within less than a week and it's. 784 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,280 Speaker 1: Gone, and I would anticipate within another month, Cesar Chavez 785 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 1: will be per son of on grata. I look at 786 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: also you talk about George Floyd, multiple felon in possession, 787 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: his body had every drug imaginable and and he died 788 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: of a cardiac arrest. He was committing felonies when he 789 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: was arrested and refuses to submit to the arrest. He 790 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,239 Speaker 1: stuck guns in the belly of women to rob them, 791 00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 1: He beat women, he sold drugs, led a terrible life, 792 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: and of course he kept saying I can't breathe. I 793 00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 1: can't breathe. It's because he was having heart problems. And 794 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 1: the original Corners report on him was that it was 795 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: natural causes. But within one or two days that had 796 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: a change. You had to get the narrative under way. 797 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:04,319 Speaker 1: I look at Harvey Milk, gay rights activists. Yeah, head sex. 798 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 12: That's another example. 799 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: Sixteen and seventeen year old boy explained about Harvey Milk 800 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 1: and a navy ship named after sexual, a gay rights 801 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: activist that had sex with teenage boys. That was a felony, 802 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: but they named the ship after him. 803 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 12: It's a great that's actually a very good example too, 804 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 12: because Harvey Milk, you know, this sort of gay progressive, 805 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 12: gay pride. I don't even know. I don't know a 806 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 12: ton of details about him other than again, he shows 807 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:36,280 Speaker 12: up now in children's curriculum and there is a children's 808 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:41,400 Speaker 12: book written about him. And the problem again, right is 809 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:45,359 Speaker 12: why are you talking to fourth grade students about Harvey Milk. Yeah, 810 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:48,720 Speaker 12: that is just that is a figure. There's no reason 811 00:47:49,320 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 12: why older students in a class that they choose to 812 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 12: take can't. 813 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 4: Discuss this guy, right, you can't do it. 814 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 12: He played a role in history, He played a role 815 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 12: in history, Fine, learn about it. The way that he's 816 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,800 Speaker 12: portrayed in these picture books to fourth grade students is 817 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:08,360 Speaker 12: again just like as if he's this icon and that 818 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 12: you have to love everything about him and everything that 819 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 12: he did was good and anybody who doesn't think that 820 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 12: about him is bad. And to your point, it's a 821 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 12: much more complicated and sort of sordid tail. It's far 822 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 12: too much for an elementary school student, which indicates to 823 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 12: me it makes more sense not to talk about him 824 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 12: at all. To the elementary school student. 825 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 1: Well, it's done all the time. President John F. Kennedy, 826 00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 1: I watched this piece on sixty Minutes a few years 827 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 1: ago when an intern she was of age, she was 828 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 1: like eighteen or nineteen years old, but she was passed 829 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 1: off by President Kennedy to his friends to receive shall 830 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: I say, oral sex from a young girl. He also, 831 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,320 Speaker 1: I won't say, made love. He had sex and the 832 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: presidential suite in the White House with Jackie Kennedy gone, 833 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: and at John F. Kennedy, who's deified. That guy was 834 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 1: betting every woman he could find, and also having sex 835 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 1: in his own bedroom, in his own wife's bed with 836 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,919 Speaker 1: under with girls that were eighteen or nineteen years old, 837 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,439 Speaker 1: and he used to enjoy to watch them have sex 838 00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,440 Speaker 1: with his friends as President Kennedy. And then you got 839 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,280 Speaker 1: the stuff with Martin Luther King Junior. According to the FBI, 840 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 1: he had sex with as many as forty five to 841 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:25,920 Speaker 1: fifty women. According to one of his bios, King looked on, laughed, 842 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 1: and offered advice to a friend who was raping a woman. 843 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 1: That's mL King Junior. And of course the King family 844 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:34,960 Speaker 1: doesn't went next year for a lot of the stuff 845 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: to come out, because then what do you do? And 846 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:40,760 Speaker 1: the King family is fighting now, the children are fighting 847 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: to keep that quiet that they don't want to get. 848 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,400 Speaker 1: They don't want to get that information out on the icons, 849 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: and the icons are on both sides. But President Trump, 850 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,920 Speaker 1: everything's on the table, the most disgusting things, But liberals 851 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 1: don't have the same scrutiny. 852 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,760 Speaker 6: Correct I yes, I do think. 853 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,040 Speaker 12: That that's correct. And I think all of this points 854 00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:03,960 Speaker 12: to the danger of creating these these figures as heroes, 855 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 12: and and this sort of like looking at them as idols, 856 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 12: because they're just they're human beings, and the idea that 857 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 12: we would again speak about them as sort of these 858 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 12: perfect people and and and based an entire I mean, 859 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 12: the idea that you would base an entire curriculum around 860 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:28,960 Speaker 12: the core values of Caesar Chavez. It's like just walk 861 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:34,839 Speaker 12: into a trap because it's it's almost funny to say 862 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 12: it out loud now, right, But part of me thinking 863 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 12: like why in the world, Like, you can teach your 864 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 12: lessons on him, you can do your readings on him, 865 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 12: students can learn about that movement. But the idea that 866 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,880 Speaker 12: you would have all of your in your English language 867 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 12: arts and your social studies, in your social emotional learning 868 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,839 Speaker 12: and your ethnic studies, right, which the last two things 869 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 12: shouldn't even be in school anyway, and then you would 870 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:04,279 Speaker 12: wrap it all around this one guy, like it's so whiskey, right, stupid, right, right? 871 00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:09,759 Speaker 1: And you know, eric A. Sanzi of Defending Education dot Org, 872 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: you're pointing out an obvious point that wasn't the case 873 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:16,399 Speaker 1: twenty or thirty years ago, that schools are about indoctrination 874 00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: and not education. It's about the schools aren't teaching kids 875 00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 1: how to think, but what to think, And somehow that turned. 876 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: Do you have some sense of when that happened? He 877 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: used to be we would have arguments in colleges about 878 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 1: the great issues pro and con Vietnam War, yes or no? 879 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,280 Speaker 1: Or Kennedy nuclear freeze, yes or no. I'm sorry Reagan. 880 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 1: And now it's always about how how It's not the 881 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 1: how to teach, but what what principles to accept? How 882 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: did public education get out of the education business and 883 00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 1: in the indoctrination business. 884 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,560 Speaker 12: Well, part of it is that because ideology sort of 885 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,320 Speaker 12: crept in and then steamrolled in and then completely captured 886 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 12: higher ed these teacher training programs, I mean, the students 887 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:09,720 Speaker 12: are just marinating in far left ideology and being told 888 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 12: I mean they are told that they're teaching of the 889 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 12: political act and that their responsibility is to create agents 890 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:22,800 Speaker 12: of social change, and there are obviously specific issues for 891 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 12: which they are supposed to do that this is not 892 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 12: a agent of social change, right, And then you pick 893 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 12: from a menu of of beliefs or opinions that lay 894 00:52:35,520 --> 00:52:37,120 Speaker 12: in some on the left and some on the right. 895 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 12: These are sort of all quite far left positions. So 896 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:45,279 Speaker 12: that's that's part of how it happened. Because if you 897 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:47,840 Speaker 12: trained a whole bunch of people and cohorts of teachers 898 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 12: year after year, and you tell them your job is 899 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 12: to be an activist and they don't think that they're 900 00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 12: doing anything wrong. The other thing is that they have 901 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,360 Speaker 12: also really only heard one side of the story for 902 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 12: the most part. So when we sometimes pull up phillibi 903 00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:06,240 Speaker 12: or we look at sources that teachers are using in schools, 904 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,359 Speaker 12: what you'll see is you'll see VOX, and you'll see 905 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 12: Hoppington posts, and you'll see MSNBC, and you'll see, you know, 906 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 12: all of these articles. It's just all sort of from 907 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 12: one First of all, they're sort of not great sources 908 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,919 Speaker 12: in terms of reliability, But putting that aside, they also 909 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 12: all kind of come from one side of the aisle. 910 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 12: So if a teacher wanted to have a smart discussion 911 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 12: about voter id laws, you can't do that if you've 912 00:53:31,080 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 12: only if students have only been presented with one set 913 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 12: of arguments to That's part. But the other thing is 914 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:42,680 Speaker 12: that twenty sixteen, people's brains broke all over the country, 915 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 12: and so well, I think that much of what we're 916 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 12: seeing in schools had already started by twenty ten. It 917 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 12: does seem like twenty sixteen is when things started to 918 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 12: go a little bit more off the rails. And then 919 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 12: twenty twenty, with the death of George Floyd coupled with 920 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:05,040 Speaker 12: the COVID thing. It just when everything went totally bananas. 921 00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: And lastly, I would say May first is going to 922 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 1: be walkout day. This walk all over the country now 923 00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,839 Speaker 1: because of ice and the presidents ordered Ice to get 924 00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 1: into into TSA and all that kind of stuff. So 925 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, we're gonna have more walkout. So 926 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: I look at Margaret Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood. 927 00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 1: She was a racist, she wanted to kill blacks. And 928 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,440 Speaker 1: now the planned paranoid facilities are mainly located in the 929 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 1: black community. There's little media scrutiny of Margaret Sanger as 930 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 1: the founder and leader of Birth of birth control slash abortion, 931 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 1: and the abortion clinics are in the black community disproportionately. 932 00:54:39,280 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: Margaret Sanger set the tune as a racial eugenist, and 933 00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 1: she was a racist, and she wanted to kill black babies, 934 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,000 Speaker 1: and she put her clinics in the Planned Parenthood and 935 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 1: that's a funder of the of the Democrat Party. Planned Parenthood. Well, 936 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: we got to run up against the clock. And once 937 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:57,800 Speaker 1: again Eric and Sansey of Defending Education dot org. I 938 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: got your website up. It's fabulous, but the icons are following. 939 00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,239 Speaker 1: The icons are falling everywhere, and I say, let it happen, 940 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:05,759 Speaker 1: And the biggest one is going to be M. L. 941 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,000 Speaker 1: King Jr. Next year. If this stuff comes out, Okay, 942 00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 1: give us thirty seconds. If the worst, the worst comes 943 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 1: out about Martin Luther King Junior, what's the what's the 944 00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: media and the civil rights movement're going to do about 945 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 1: that one? 946 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,480 Speaker 12: I actually have no idea. I would put him in 947 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 12: a totally different category than Caesar Shavas in terms of 948 00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:28,879 Speaker 12: what that would mean for people, you know, in terms 949 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 12: of coming to terms with that. I also think that 950 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 12: Caesar Shavas, while he is a huge figure in schools, 951 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 12: much more in the Southwest and in California than it 952 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 12: is nationwide. So I don't know much. I don't know 953 00:55:40,520 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 12: nearly as much as you apparently about this Martin Luther 954 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 12: King and these records that could be coming up. But yeah, 955 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 12: that will be that'll be a huge, huge deal for 956 00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,720 Speaker 12: probab for everybody, I think across the country. But certainly 957 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 12: the schools will need to grapple with that in a 958 00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,839 Speaker 12: much bigger way than they will with the Caesar Shavas thing. 959 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,719 Speaker 1: That's that's what his bio says, there's a bio that's 960 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,840 Speaker 1: it's been out, and I hope in a sense we 961 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: have to have some icons, and I guess we need them, 962 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:10,960 Speaker 1: but they got to be the right kind. Not for 963 00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,160 Speaker 1: what they did in their private life, but they did 964 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 1: publicly and that's what's important. 965 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 8: Yeah. 966 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 12: And the thing about icons too is I just think 967 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 12: we overdo it right, like like you can have an 968 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 12: icon without talking about them as if they're saying, you know, 969 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 12: yes exactly, and that that's the mistake I think a 970 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 12: lot of people have made with a lot of these people. 971 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: All right, Erica, we got to run defending education dot 972 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,359 Speaker 1: over go do it again once again. Thanks for coming 973 00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:37,359 Speaker 1: on the Bill Cunningham Show. Thank you very much, thanks 974 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 1: for having me. Let's continue with more Bill Cunningham, with 975 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: you every sun yet, Billy Cunningham, The Great Americas. Erica 976 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:51,680 Speaker 1: brings up a lot of great points. And I'll say this, 977 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 1: whether it's George Washington or Thomas Jefferson, her own slaves, 978 00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 1: or whether it's Cesar Chavez who seemingly had sex with 979 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 1: right children are coming out next year. According to one biographer, 980 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 1: Martin Luther King Jr. It's going to be depicted into 981 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,400 Speaker 1: very negative light by the FBI and all the wiretaps 982 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 1: they had. I would like to think that we deal 983 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,320 Speaker 1: with people and the best things they've done publicly and 984 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 1: not the worst things they've done privately. Let's continue with more. 985 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 1: Coming up next is doctor cart Masselli Do No Harm, 986 00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: Billy Cunningham, the Great American, with you every son, you 987 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:31,040 Speaker 1: know Bill Cunningham, the Great American. Of course, what's happening 988 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,880 Speaker 1: in medical schools is illustrative maybe of the entire nation, 989 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: and that is certain political doctorates are pumped into the 990 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 1: minds of young medical students, law students. I spoke to 991 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 1: a law school class about a year ago, and two 992 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 1: thirds of the class for female and white males had 993 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:51,040 Speaker 1: their day. But now it's over. And also, Do No 994 00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: Harm is a great website, and what they do is 995 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: it's a five to one C three that focuses on 996 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:03,600 Speaker 1: award by merit and not by sexual gender or by race. 997 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: And doctor Kurt Mascelli had a column up with the 998 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal, which is number one Do No Harms 999 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,720 Speaker 1: Chief Medical Officer. He's urging the CDC to create new 1000 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 1: medical diagnoses codes for gender transition. The article was entitled 1001 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 1: the CDC can help those disfigured by gender affirming care. 1002 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 1: And doctor Kurt Mascelli, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. 1003 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 1: First of all, describe the breath of the problem, and 1004 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 1: that we have thousands of young kids who've been incentivized 1005 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 1: by the culture and by their teachers in the medical 1006 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 1: community to go through gender altering care which disfigures their 1007 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 1: body before they're eighteen years old. Explain the death of 1008 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 1: the problem if you would. 1009 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 14: Doctor, absolutely pleasure to be here, and thanks for having me, 1010 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,880 Speaker 14: and you're absolutely right. We did a database to stop 1011 00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:51,160 Speaker 14: the harm database that looked at claims data for medical 1012 00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 14: transition that was undertaken in miners from twenty nineteen to 1013 00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 14: twenty twenty three, and we found that over fifty seven 1014 00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 14: hundred miners that had surgeries related to gender transition, and 1015 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 14: that could be mistectomy or lower genital surgeries and the like. 1016 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 14: And more so, I think upwards of fourteen thousand kids 1017 00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:12,720 Speaker 14: had had some sort of medical intervention puberty blockers, hormones 1018 00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 14: or these surgeries. And so the problem is significant, especially 1019 00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 14: when we see clinicians unfortunately moving kids towards these medical 1020 00:59:21,160 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 14: pathways of puberty blockers, hormones, and surgeries instead of focusing 1021 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:28,520 Speaker 14: on trying to heal their mind and help them through 1022 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 14: the problems and applying appropriate psychological interventions to help to 1023 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 14: help these kids. 1024 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 1: You're talking about a time frame of twenty nineteen to 1025 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three or three years after that fact. So 1026 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 1: explain what the fourteen thousand kids, that number might be 1027 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: thirty thousand right now, puberty blockers, what do they seek 1028 00:59:45,560 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 1: to do? Explain that? 1029 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:51,160 Speaker 14: Yeah, So oftentimes, again, these are kids who are vulnerable kids. 1030 00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 14: They're going through distress over their gender, and they're being 1031 00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 14: told that they maybe were born in the wrong body. 1032 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 14: And unfortunately, some of these children might start believing that, 1033 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 14: and their parents are obviously trying to get them help. 1034 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 14: They're trying to help them through this. And you know 1035 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:08,360 Speaker 14: what normally would have happened decades ago is we would 1036 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 14: just sort of let things move as they would provide 1037 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,360 Speaker 14: some help as possible, and the vast majority of these kids, 1038 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 14: upwards of eighty and ninety percent of them would desist. 1039 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:21,240 Speaker 14: They would be very comfortable back in living in their 1040 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 14: sex at birth, so to speak. So I think we 1041 01:00:24,440 --> 01:00:27,080 Speaker 14: have changed that model recently. And so if a kid 1042 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 14: comes in with such distress. That child may now be 1043 01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:34,120 Speaker 14: offered puberty blockers and so effectively stopping their puberty and 1044 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:37,680 Speaker 14: allowing them then to proceed to cross sex hormones and 1045 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,200 Speaker 14: other such interventions to contribute to the idea of trying 1046 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 14: to change their secondary sex characteristics, and when we know 1047 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:47,080 Speaker 14: that nobody can can truly change their sex, but the 1048 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 14: idea of trying to take on other characteristics. But there 1049 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:52,280 Speaker 14: are significant consequences to this, I mean not only the 1050 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,920 Speaker 14: psychological impact on the individual, but certainly with puberty blockers, 1051 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,520 Speaker 14: we know they impact one's bone mineral density. Can they 1052 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 14: even make one have osteoporosis osteopenia. They can impact one's cognition, 1053 01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 14: and they can also impact one's fertility in the future. 1054 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 14: And so here we have kids who really don't have 1055 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:13,320 Speaker 14: an understanding or an appreciation for any capacity as to 1056 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:15,920 Speaker 14: what might life be like ten twenty years from now? 1057 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 6: Do I want a family? What do I sort of envision? 1058 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 14: And unfortunately, we're allowing children to sort of drive the 1059 01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:26,240 Speaker 14: decisions here, as opposed to having the medical community act 1060 01:01:26,280 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 14: as the professionals that they should be and recognize that 1061 01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,200 Speaker 14: this is a child in distress, This is a child 1062 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:36,320 Speaker 14: who needs help from a psychological standpoint, and not being 1063 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 14: rushed into a pathway that leads them to really just 1064 01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 14: these terrible difficulties that will cause lifelong complications, irreversible harms. 1065 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 14: There's so much more that we should be doing and 1066 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 14: can be doing as providers, and unfortunately this medical pathway 1067 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:54,480 Speaker 14: is just simply without benefit and with significant harms. 1068 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:57,360 Speaker 1: I guess the first order of business for a doctor 1069 01:01:57,520 --> 01:01:59,960 Speaker 1: like yourself is do no harm, which is, don't hurt 1070 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 1: the patient. And this is something relatively new. If twenty 1071 01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 1: or thirty years ago in America, some child presented as 1072 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:09,840 Speaker 1: being in a different body, that's called some sort of 1073 01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:13,080 Speaker 1: a delusion or schizophrenia, in which case the child would 1074 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 1: be referred for psychological or psychiatric intervention to help understand 1075 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,760 Speaker 1: where you are. But if there's a I don't know, 1076 01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 1: thirty to forty thousand in the last seven years that 1077 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 1: have gone through puberty blockers, and that means many times 1078 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 1: a girl who wants to be a boy having mental 1079 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:32,720 Speaker 1: difficulties can have children later on, or a boy who 1080 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,080 Speaker 1: wants to become a girl has testicular or cancer to 1081 01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 1: cut off those sex organs. That's rather permanent. Why did 1082 01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 1: this happen. Can you is there money involved. I've had 1083 01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:46,560 Speaker 1: one or two guests on moms and dads that felt 1084 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 1: as if they wanted a live daughter instead of a 1085 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 1: dead son, and so they went along with it. So 1086 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 1: they were in a situation where their doctors said this 1087 01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:56,960 Speaker 1: has to happen, the hospital said it's got to happen. 1088 01:02:57,600 --> 01:02:59,959 Speaker 1: The culture they live and said it has to happen, 1089 01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 1: and it's a thing to do, and they received attention whatever. 1090 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:05,840 Speaker 1: And then down the road, when you get to be 1091 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:08,520 Speaker 1: twenty five thirty years old and you can't have children 1092 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 1: or your body is deformed because of the medical intervention, 1093 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:14,360 Speaker 1: then where do you go to get back your body? 1094 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 1: There was a case a few months back where it 1095 01:03:17,400 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: was in New York or California. A jury awarded a 1096 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:23,160 Speaker 1: couple million dollars. Because children cannot make these decisions on 1097 01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,959 Speaker 1: their own. A child can't get extra strain tylanol, a child, 1098 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: a fourteen year old can't get a tattoo without permission. 1099 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 1: So if a parent believes in this gender dysph you 1100 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: and the parent gives permission, and the original doctor gives permission, 1101 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 1: and the hospital does it, and it makes it look 1102 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,959 Speaker 1: as if this is society intervening medically when they should 1103 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:49,600 Speaker 1: not intervene, and so from do no harm. You're working 1104 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 1: with lots of states, but recently the state of New 1105 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:55,560 Speaker 1: York says, we're going to ignore the CDC. We're going 1106 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:57,440 Speaker 1: to keep doing what we're doing. So what do you 1107 01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 1: say to parents who believe the culture it tells them 1108 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:04,600 Speaker 1: your child's and the wrong body. The treating physician says 1109 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 1: we have to do this, the experts say we have 1110 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:11,040 Speaker 1: to do this, the hospital doesn't. So does that give 1111 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:13,680 Speaker 1: permission of the medical industry for this to take place? 1112 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 14: Yeah, We've got to make sure those parents aren't listening 1113 01:04:17,720 --> 01:04:20,520 Speaker 14: to those providers and those physicians and those and that 1114 01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 14: societal influence, because that, unfortunately has been so damaging. And 1115 01:04:25,080 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 14: when you speak really that manipulative statement that said, would 1116 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 14: you rather have a dead son or a living daughter? 1117 01:04:31,040 --> 01:04:34,080 Speaker 14: That is a lie And unfortunately, you know it, really 1118 01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 14: it gets to the heart of the matter that we've 1119 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:39,400 Speaker 14: manipulated parents into sort of moving into a direction that 1120 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,600 Speaker 14: harms their child. Parents want to defend their children, they 1121 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,080 Speaker 14: want to provide the best for them. And I think 1122 01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 14: it's so important for us to get this knowledge out 1123 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,680 Speaker 14: there and for the profession to act as a profession 1124 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 14: and not this sort of child driven, autonomy focused model. 1125 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,480 Speaker 14: Because you're right, there are other ethical principles that are 1126 01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 14: so key in medicine, one of them being knew no harm, 1127 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,320 Speaker 14: as well as beneficent doing the right thing for the patient, 1128 01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:05,680 Speaker 14: and we as medical professionals, we can't be like burger 1129 01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:07,680 Speaker 14: king and have it your way or anything of the sort. 1130 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:10,080 Speaker 6: We need to do the right thing for. 1131 01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 14: That individual, understanding the complexity of what they have. I mean, oftentimes, 1132 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,600 Speaker 14: many of these kids have comorbid psychiatric illness upwards of 1133 01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:20,320 Speaker 14: seventy eighty percent, Many of them have been impacted by 1134 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:24,120 Speaker 14: significant traumas. We need to provide a good quality assessment 1135 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:27,240 Speaker 14: to understand why is the child experiencing the distress that 1136 01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:29,680 Speaker 14: they're articulating, and to get at the heart of what 1137 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 14: is at that distress, not to sort of say, oh, 1138 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:35,520 Speaker 14: it's gender dystoria automatically on the train to hormones and 1139 01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:40,240 Speaker 14: puberty blockers and surgeries. So I think there's really a 1140 01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 14: call here for the medical system to act in the 1141 01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 14: appropriate frame of mind. And we saw that with the 1142 01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:49,000 Speaker 14: American Society of Plastic Surgeons, which a month ago came 1143 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 14: out with a statement saying that we shouldn't be doing 1144 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:54,760 Speaker 14: these things, and for them, it's surgeries that we shouldn't 1145 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 14: be doing. That this is not something that should be 1146 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 14: happening in kids at all. And in fact, they offered 1147 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,480 Speaker 14: it a very solid ethical framework. They looked at the 1148 01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:05,000 Speaker 14: evidence and the data and again there is very low 1149 01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:09,200 Speaker 14: evidence of any sort of benefit significant harms, and they've 1150 01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 14: really outlined, I would say, a statement that other medical 1151 01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 14: societies in our country need to take hold. We need 1152 01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 14: to look at the data, look at the evidence, even 1153 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 14: look overseas, look at that information. And I would urge 1154 01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,680 Speaker 14: parents to do that. To read the CAST report, look 1155 01:06:24,720 --> 01:06:28,000 Speaker 14: at the HHS reviews, see what progressive nations like Sweden 1156 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,440 Speaker 14: and Finland that have said, no, we're not doing this, 1157 01:06:30,640 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 14: this is crazy. We need psychosocial supports, we need psychological interventions. 1158 01:06:35,720 --> 01:06:38,520 Speaker 14: And I would hope that parents can really approach it 1159 01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 14: with a with a frame of mind that we've got 1160 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 14: to defend our kids. We've got to keep them healthy 1161 01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 14: and well, and we've got to really aim to understand 1162 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:49,960 Speaker 14: what is the true origin of that distress so we 1163 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,360 Speaker 14: can get the child what they really need, not on 1164 01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 14: this dangerous pathway. 1165 01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:57,800 Speaker 1: So you're saying that the old days of having psychological treatment. 1166 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:01,920 Speaker 1: Psychiatric treatment is the way to handle this, not surgery 1167 01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 1: and not puberty blockers, which can be very destructive. Is 1168 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,880 Speaker 1: that correct? So you're not urgent to do nothing, You're 1169 01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 1: urging to do. 1170 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,920 Speaker 14: What well, and at times watchful waiting could be the 1171 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 14: best treatment there as well. 1172 01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 6: You know, there's there's often a key to that. 1173 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:21,000 Speaker 14: And again, eighty to ninety percent of these these children 1174 01:07:21,120 --> 01:07:25,000 Speaker 14: have desisted in traditional frameworks, and oftentimes that's with watchful waiting. 1175 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:27,320 Speaker 14: I think it's important that we can't ignore folks who 1176 01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 14: have comorbid psychiatric conditions. If someone's also struggling with depression 1177 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 14: or anxiety, yeah, we need to make sure that we're 1178 01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 14: doing the right thing to care for that individuals with 1179 01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,840 Speaker 14: those symptoms that they might be having. And again not 1180 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,560 Speaker 14: claim that everything is is this gender dysphoria and such. 1181 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:44,000 Speaker 14: So I think it's important for us to understand the 1182 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,680 Speaker 14: whole person. And for some it might be that watchful 1183 01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 14: waiting is the appropriate course. For others, it might be 1184 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:53,160 Speaker 14: making sure that we're addressing the trauma and the psychological 1185 01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 14: challenges that they've had. But that's an important part of 1186 01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:00,280 Speaker 14: the assessment and of the process. And unfortunately it's that 1187 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:04,200 Speaker 14: in many of these gender clinics. Unfortunately, supply creates its 1188 01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 14: own demand. And if the gender clinic is doing puberty 1189 01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 14: blockers and harmones, and that's what you get, and. 1190 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:10,600 Speaker 6: That is that is just a disaster. 1191 01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:14,880 Speaker 1: Is this political? I can see blue cities and blue 1192 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:18,120 Speaker 1: states because the name Trump might be attached to some 1193 01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 1: of this that is political and that you resist this 1194 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:24,519 Speaker 1: because of politics, Well, what's it work here? Politics or 1195 01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 1: medicine are both. 1196 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:31,080 Speaker 14: It's truly unfortunate that has become political. But I will 1197 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:33,240 Speaker 14: say that if you look at surveys of people and 1198 01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 14: you look at Democrats Republicans that are being surveyed, the 1199 01:08:36,560 --> 01:08:39,920 Speaker 14: majority believe that kids shouldn't have puberty blockers in harmones. 1200 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 14: But that's not what we should do. And that includes Democrats. 1201 01:08:42,080 --> 01:08:43,760 Speaker 14: And that was New York Times that had done a 1202 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:45,240 Speaker 14: survey I think it was about a year ago or 1203 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:48,280 Speaker 14: so on this topic. And again it is it is 1204 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 14: regular run of the mill Democrats who believe that, yeah, 1205 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:53,479 Speaker 14: we want to keep kids safe. These are not the 1206 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:55,040 Speaker 14: This is not the way to go. We've got to 1207 01:08:55,800 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 14: make sure that we're not giving them pood blockers and harmones. 1208 01:08:58,240 --> 01:09:02,200 Speaker 14: But unfortunately, in the political class and even within academic medicine, 1209 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 14: there has been this sort of ideological capture where activists 1210 01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 14: or leading the way. And that's why, at least from 1211 01:09:07,800 --> 01:09:10,400 Speaker 14: the medical perspective, it's so important for us and for 1212 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,960 Speaker 14: common sense physicians to re engage with their medical society 1213 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 14: because we need to bring common sense back to medicine, 1214 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 14: and certainly on this issue, I mean, this is one 1215 01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 14: that it has obviously terribly hurt so many kids, but 1216 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:25,280 Speaker 14: it's also hurt the trust in medicine. It's hurt something 1217 01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:28,000 Speaker 14: that's so sacred that we need to make sure is there. 1218 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,840 Speaker 14: And when doctors aren't reading the evidence and following the 1219 01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:34,639 Speaker 14: evidence and recognizing that these interventions are not the way 1220 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:37,000 Speaker 14: to go, we have a problem of medicine. So there's 1221 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 14: a real calling for us to get back to the 1222 01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:43,599 Speaker 14: basics of our profession. And that's something I would certainly 1223 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:46,799 Speaker 14: urge many of my colleagues to do, to continue to engage, 1224 01:09:46,840 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 14: to get involved, to push the activists out of our 1225 01:09:49,400 --> 01:09:51,599 Speaker 14: societies and bring common sense back to medicine. 1226 01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 1: Could doctors lose their licenses that these continue, I can't imagine. 1227 01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:57,880 Speaker 1: I would think in twenty years, we'll look back upon 1228 01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:00,760 Speaker 1: this era and said, how in the world world did 1229 01:10:00,800 --> 01:10:06,120 Speaker 1: the American Medical Association and thousands of doctors actually buy 1230 01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 1: into the idea that there are one hundred and five 1231 01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,800 Speaker 1: different genders and that you are trapped in the wrong body. 1232 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,880 Speaker 1: Instead of treating the mind, they're cutting off sex organs 1233 01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 1: of children. Might we look back on this air and say, 1234 01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:19,920 Speaker 1: what in the hell were you thinking? 1235 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 14: I think unfortunately we will, as much as we've looked 1236 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:26,639 Speaker 14: back and looked back at the botomies and said, wow, 1237 01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:27,360 Speaker 14: what were we thinking? 1238 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,479 Speaker 6: Or eugenics, what were we thinking? What did we do? 1239 01:10:29,560 --> 01:10:29,880 Speaker 4: We Wow? 1240 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 14: We have harmed people in such a significant way. And 1241 01:10:32,520 --> 01:10:36,120 Speaker 14: you know, unfortunately, there's much good that medicine has done. 1242 01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 14: I don't want to dismiss that. I mean, there's the 1243 01:10:38,439 --> 01:10:40,439 Speaker 14: tremendous benefits that we have seen, but there's also been 1244 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:44,400 Speaker 14: tremendous tragedies that we've seen with medicine. And again, that's 1245 01:10:44,439 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 14: why we need to look at all of our ethical 1246 01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:50,000 Speaker 14: principles and operate in such a manner, and unfortunately, medicine 1247 01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:52,639 Speaker 14: has not been able to do that effectively. And that's 1248 01:10:52,680 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 14: why we've looked to the legal system in the sense 1249 01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 14: of making sure that de transitioners, people that have been 1250 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:01,799 Speaker 14: harmed by many of these procedures and interventions as children, 1251 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,120 Speaker 14: are able to have justice and have their day in court. 1252 01:11:04,200 --> 01:11:05,800 Speaker 14: And as you mentioned in New York, there was a 1253 01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,559 Speaker 14: two million dollar verdict for for one such individual who 1254 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,160 Speaker 14: was harmed where a psychologist had had really sort of 1255 01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:14,559 Speaker 14: pushed her in a direction towards this this affirming model, 1256 01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 14: and she ended up having surgery. And you know, it 1257 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 14: was actually the psychologist who who was on the hook 1258 01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:21,960 Speaker 14: for the most of that two million dollar verdict because 1259 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:25,560 Speaker 14: of the role that was entailed and the and the 1260 01:11:25,760 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 14: you know, quote unquote treatment provided. But I think you're right. 1261 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:30,400 Speaker 14: I think unfortunately, we're going to look back and see 1262 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,880 Speaker 14: this as a very very dark chapter in medicine. And 1263 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,679 Speaker 14: that's why it's important for organizations like Do No Harm 1264 01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:37,600 Speaker 14: and so many others out there to do what we 1265 01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 14: can to support the transitioners, to support those individuals who've 1266 01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 14: been harmed by medicine, because we we've got to make 1267 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 14: sure that they get the care they need. I mean, these, unfortunately, 1268 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 14: are kids who have had significant years of hormonal exposure. 1269 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:52,760 Speaker 14: That is that not you know, obviously the opposite the 1270 01:11:52,880 --> 01:11:55,479 Speaker 14: crossnex harmones. They've they've also had surgeries. We've got to 1271 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,680 Speaker 14: do much better for these kids. We've got to help them, 1272 01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,840 Speaker 14: help them through just the all the the trauma that 1273 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:02,679 Speaker 14: medicine has put them through, and make sure we're giving 1274 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 14: them good quality healthcare. And that's why we went to 1275 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 14: the CDC because we need codes for this. We don't 1276 01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:11,680 Speaker 14: have diagnostic codes that actually account for dessistance or detransition. 1277 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:15,960 Speaker 14: And unfortunately, when it's not in the Medical Dictionary, which 1278 01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 14: has seventy thousand codes in it. When it's not in 1279 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 14: the Medical Dictionary, unfortunately, it's. 1280 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,360 Speaker 6: Harder to do real world research. 1281 01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,480 Speaker 14: It's harder to make sure that we're building clinical guidelines, 1282 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:30,120 Speaker 14: and effectively, these folks become invisible, and that's not what 1283 01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 14: we need. We need to make sure they are visible 1284 01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,400 Speaker 14: so they're getting the care that they need. And also 1285 01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:40,320 Speaker 14: that medicine is recognizing a very real challenge that we 1286 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:42,360 Speaker 14: have and we've got to step up to the plate 1287 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 14: and really do something to stop these gender affirming procedures 1288 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 14: from happening in the first place, but then also making 1289 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,280 Speaker 14: sure that we're caring for those folks who have been 1290 01:12:51,320 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 14: harmed by these procedures to make sure that they're getting 1291 01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:56,759 Speaker 14: good quality care at this point in time. 1292 01:12:56,760 --> 01:12:59,600 Speaker 1: Well, maybe it's good to let loose the trial. A 1293 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 1: turn used to sue everybody, and that'll stop it. Every 1294 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:05,360 Speaker 1: now and then, we trial attorneys have some impact in 1295 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 1: a positive way. But I would think suing children's hospitals, 1296 01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:13,040 Speaker 1: suing the doctors that do this, Suing the companies producing 1297 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 1: the puberty blockers. For a fourteen year old girl to 1298 01:13:16,479 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 1: be subjected to puberty blockers, which often means she can 1299 01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 1: never have a child, I don't know where they go 1300 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 1: back to get their youth. And many of the parents 1301 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:27,400 Speaker 1: are well intended, but they're misinformed. But when you go 1302 01:13:27,520 --> 01:13:29,920 Speaker 1: to a doctor or a children's hospital, they've got to 1303 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 1: set you straight. And there are tens of thousands, maybe 1304 01:13:33,479 --> 01:13:36,719 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand kids that have suffered through this regime. 1305 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:39,919 Speaker 1: Much like the Tuskegee Institute when it came to syphilis 1306 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 1: for black males, we look back up on that and say, 1307 01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:44,920 Speaker 1: how in the hell did that happen? In about twenty years, 1308 01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:46,519 Speaker 1: maybe now we're going to look back and say, how 1309 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:49,880 Speaker 1: in the world did great children's hospitals and the medical 1310 01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:53,679 Speaker 1: community butcher these children and ruin their lives and profit 1311 01:13:53,800 --> 01:13:55,439 Speaker 1: or whatever might have been the mode. But it's got 1312 01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:58,120 Speaker 1: to stop. We got to run. Doctor Kurt Masseli, do 1313 01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:00,840 Speaker 1: no Harm. The website's great many other great stuff for 1314 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:05,519 Speaker 1: informations up there, including whether black patients benefit from having 1315 01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:09,920 Speaker 1: black doctors, and whether female patients benefit from having female doctors, 1316 01:14:09,960 --> 01:14:13,120 Speaker 1: and whether white male patients benefit having white male that's 1317 01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:17,080 Speaker 1: another complete topic, of course, the answer is no. But nonetheless, 1318 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,160 Speaker 1: doctor Kurt Mascella, you're a great American and thanks for 1319 01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,519 Speaker 1: coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. Wonderful stuff. 1320 01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:25,519 Speaker 6: Thank you, Doc, thanks so much for having me. Take care, 1321 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:26,120 Speaker 6: God bless you. 1322 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,720 Speaker 1: Let's continue Bill cunning In the Great American Live with 1323 01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:41,000 Speaker 1: you every Sunday night. Billy cunning In the Great American. 1324 01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:44,519 Speaker 1: Doctor Kurt Mascelli often makes a lot of sense. The 1325 01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:48,680 Speaker 1: doctors number one are taught do no harm. And transgenderism 1326 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:52,280 Speaker 1: is so embedded today in liberalism that the first thing 1327 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: happening is that harm is done to especially children who 1328 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 1: simply are confused about their gender, or about their sex, 1329 01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,719 Speaker 1: or about confusion they have in their life. And doctor 1330 01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:05,720 Speaker 1: Curt Mascelli points out, and I certainly believe that over 1331 01:15:05,760 --> 01:15:07,559 Speaker 1: the next twenty years, we're going to look back upon 1332 01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:10,320 Speaker 1: this era and the doctor's going to have some explaining 1333 01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:14,839 Speaker 1: to do when it comes to hormonal treatment of puberty 1334 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:18,639 Speaker 1: blockers and automately surgery of children who simply had other 1335 01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:21,360 Speaker 1: mental issues and reacted as if it could be solved 1336 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:26,640 Speaker 1: by puity blockers or by surgery, which is not the case. Well, 1337 01:15:26,680 --> 01:15:29,240 Speaker 1: let's continue with more. Coming up next is Dan Doyle. 1338 01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:31,360 Speaker 1: I've watched him on Fox News forgot a bit. He 1339 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:33,439 Speaker 1: is the answers when it comes to things such as 1340 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:36,880 Speaker 1: oil prices, what's gonna happen based upon what's predicted for 1341 01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 1: tomorrow and more, and we'll see what happens down the road. 1342 01:15:41,240 --> 01:15:44,360 Speaker 1: He's wonderful when it comes to all matters. Relative to 1343 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:47,200 Speaker 1: Bill cunning Into Grant American with you and all great 1344 01:15:47,240 --> 01:15:48,839 Speaker 1: Americans every. 1345 01:15:48,680 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 6: Sunday, Willie. 1346 01:16:19,280 --> 01:16:22,400 Speaker 3: Rocking you by Choice Hotels, Econo Lodge and Roadway In 1347 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,479 Speaker 3: Hotels are serving up double points, were over qualifying Stay 1348 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,360 Speaker 3: book at Choice Hotels dot com. 1349 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 6: Now here's the man. 1350 01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:33,160 Speaker 3: Who's been recognized as radio's best, the recipient of not one, 1351 01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:37,520 Speaker 3: but two prestigious Marconi Awards for his broadcast excellence. 1352 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,000 Speaker 6: The one and only Bill Cunningham. 1353 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 1: By Billy Cunningham, the Great American. Of course, what's happening 1354 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:47,320 Speaker 1: in the Homuz Straight is affecting the entire world, and 1355 01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 1: the presidents meeting with the Japanese Prime Minister to get 1356 01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:53,599 Speaker 1: their help. Largely Europe has turned their back on us, 1357 01:16:53,640 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 1: which is a regular event. But if you looked at 1358 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:59,160 Speaker 1: the price of gasoline a gallon here in Ohio, it's 1359 01:16:59,160 --> 01:17:02,040 Speaker 1: about three seven a gallon, and it's likely to go 1360 01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:04,400 Speaker 1: up over the next few weeks and months as this 1361 01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:08,640 Speaker 1: thing either winds up or winds down. But as Americans, 1362 01:17:08,720 --> 01:17:10,920 Speaker 1: we understand that when you're in a war, you don't 1363 01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 1: know the outcome. You may plan certain things to occur, 1364 01:17:14,360 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 1: but often they do not. The Trumpster will react to 1365 01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,840 Speaker 1: what's going on, and away we go. We know one 1366 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:22,800 Speaker 1: thing in nuclear armed Iran would be a danger to 1367 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:26,120 Speaker 1: the entire world. And right now they're setting ablaze their 1368 01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: liquefied natural gas fields. Whether it's in the UAE or 1369 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 1: the Iran. All hell's breaking loose. So what's going to 1370 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: happen the next few days, few weeks. Dan Doyle Dan 1371 01:17:36,280 --> 01:17:39,639 Speaker 1: Doyle is with it Reliance Wealth Services. He's an expert 1372 01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 1: on such things. Has a great op ed piece of 1373 01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:46,160 Speaker 1: Fox News Digital and he says that New York's fracking 1374 01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:50,760 Speaker 1: band has cost residence eleven thousand dollars per person. Pennsylvania, 1375 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 1: et cetera in a similar circumstance because of fracking West 1376 01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:56,639 Speaker 1: Virginia O high. In fact, the whole world's in much 1377 01:17:56,680 --> 01:17:58,880 Speaker 1: better shape. But Janan you and on al is not saying, 1378 01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:02,840 Speaker 1: Dan Doyle, Fox News Digital and Dan Doyle, welcome to 1379 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:05,200 Speaker 1: the Bill Cunningham showing Dan first of all, give us 1380 01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:07,679 Speaker 1: an overview as to where we are now and where 1381 01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:10,320 Speaker 1: we anticipate what's going to happen with a gallons of 1382 01:18:10,400 --> 01:18:12,200 Speaker 1: gas in the days and weeks ahead. 1383 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:16,640 Speaker 4: Okay, thanks Bill. I'll back up a little bit if 1384 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:18,519 Speaker 4: you don't mind it, a little bit of a narrative. 1385 01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:22,120 Speaker 4: So beginning of the year oil was really bad. Oil 1386 01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 4: price is very low. Gas was doing a little bit 1387 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 4: better because the AI story, but not great and natural 1388 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:32,840 Speaker 4: gas that is. And we you know Harold Ham from Continental, 1389 01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 4: you know, a very wealthy oil man, one of the 1390 01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:40,920 Speaker 4: pioneers of shale, laid down all his rigs, all his 1391 01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:43,040 Speaker 4: drilling rigs at North Dakota and the bock and shale, 1392 01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:46,360 Speaker 4: and I was seeing it all over. You know, we 1393 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 4: fracked back east and we drill out west for our 1394 01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:53,439 Speaker 4: own account in Wyoming, and you know, everybody who was 1395 01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:58,080 Speaker 4: starting to lay down rings this is starting in January December, 1396 01:18:58,160 --> 01:19:00,680 Speaker 4: you know, or price at fifty five dollars. That was 1397 01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,960 Speaker 4: kind of the no go number. No, you just can't, 1398 01:19:04,040 --> 01:19:07,040 Speaker 4: you can't drill at that level. So then suddenly the 1399 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:11,960 Speaker 4: Iranian conflict starts and it's you know, all hell's breaking 1400 01:19:12,040 --> 01:19:15,400 Speaker 4: loose out in the Hormu straight but also in the 1401 01:19:15,479 --> 01:19:19,240 Speaker 4: domestic market because we're two years, really starting the third 1402 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:22,720 Speaker 4: year of a really tough decline, and there's been a 1403 01:19:22,800 --> 01:19:26,080 Speaker 4: lot of layoffs, a lot of deferred maintenance on equipment, 1404 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:28,920 Speaker 4: track equipment, drilling rigs, and we're not ready for this. 1405 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:31,599 Speaker 4: So right now we're trying to line up a drilling 1406 01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:34,880 Speaker 4: program for this summer and it's tough to find a rig. 1407 01:19:35,120 --> 01:19:38,360 Speaker 4: If I was looking for a rig in February, you've 1408 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:42,040 Speaker 4: been tripping over them. Same thing with frat fleets. You 1409 01:19:42,200 --> 01:19:46,759 Speaker 4: just can't find them right now. So it's changing quickly 1410 01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 4: and over there, you know, I think this is going 1411 01:19:50,320 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 4: to go on a while. My guess is as good 1412 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 4: as anybody's but even if the US pulls out, now 1413 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 4: you have the Gulf States getting more and more involved 1414 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:04,479 Speaker 4: in store destroying infrastructure, and it could continue. I mean, 1415 01:20:04,560 --> 01:20:07,599 Speaker 4: even if we're not doing it, someone's gonna be left fighting. 1416 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:11,280 Speaker 4: I know, the rains will go gorilla and so you know, 1417 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:15,320 Speaker 4: and that's gonna be that puts a on oil prices, 1418 01:20:15,439 --> 01:20:18,360 Speaker 4: so or you know, risk premium. So I don't think 1419 01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:19,479 Speaker 4: we're going back to where we were. 1420 01:20:20,000 --> 01:20:22,760 Speaker 1: Dan, give us that number again. Let's say five six 1421 01:20:22,840 --> 01:20:25,639 Speaker 1: months ago, you're in the business. That Ham guy wants 1422 01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:28,560 Speaker 1: to be a US senator by the way, from from Oklahoma. 1423 01:20:28,640 --> 01:20:31,719 Speaker 1: That's another story. But what is the level yeah, which 1424 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:34,160 Speaker 1: I think would be great, But nonetheless, what is the 1425 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,360 Speaker 1: level at which you lay down your rigs? If it's 1426 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:38,920 Speaker 1: fifty dollars a barrel? Is out a disaster for your 1427 01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:42,479 Speaker 1: industry really bad. There's two ways to think about it. 1428 01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 4: One is, if you have an existing production, you're going 1429 01:20:45,160 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 4: to keep producing producing it Because oil this is so 1430 01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:52,040 Speaker 4: capital intensive. You're always you know, you're always gonna have partners, 1431 01:20:52,080 --> 01:20:54,800 Speaker 4: You're gonna have banks, you know, you know all of that, 1432 01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:59,599 Speaker 4: and you you have to keep cash flow. So where 1433 01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 4: people well shine, wells is when their lease operating cost, 1434 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:06,679 Speaker 4: the cost to produce and move oil, exceeds the cost 1435 01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:09,720 Speaker 4: to sell it, so that that happens here and there. 1436 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 4: But generally through this downturn, people are going to keep pumping. 1437 01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 4: That's you know, the downturn of last year and part 1438 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:20,360 Speaker 4: of the year before. So but to drill, you know, 1439 01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 4: and sometimes those lease shopping might be twenty five to 1440 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,680 Speaker 4: thirty dollars a barrel. That's on the high side, but 1441 01:21:24,800 --> 01:21:27,400 Speaker 4: it happens, so, you know, it gets below thirty, you 1442 01:21:27,479 --> 01:21:30,000 Speaker 4: see a lot of shut ins. Maybe thirty five, okay, 1443 01:21:30,240 --> 01:21:34,559 Speaker 4: on the drilling side. When it hit fifty five, everybody 1444 01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 4: said that's it. 1445 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:36,920 Speaker 6: That was sort of the note go zone. 1446 01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 4: It was flirting around sixty. But at fifty five nobody 1447 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:42,639 Speaker 4: wants to add and nobody wants to go. You can't 1448 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 4: make any money there, So. 1449 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,400 Speaker 1: Fifty five is a bad number. Is the sweet spot? 1450 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 1: About seventy five dollars a barrow You can make a 1451 01:21:50,320 --> 01:21:53,719 Speaker 1: little bit of a profit. People are employed thousands of jobs, 1452 01:21:53,880 --> 01:21:58,360 Speaker 1: and seventy five kind of like is the right area? Correct? 1453 01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:02,760 Speaker 4: You're absolutely, Bill, it's seventy five to eighty. You know, 1454 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:06,080 Speaker 4: we're talking about ham He says seventy eight eighty, you know, 1455 01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:10,280 Speaker 4: so upper seventies, We don't. I don't believe that's inflationary. 1456 01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:13,559 Speaker 4: During the Abomba administration, we have oil above one hundred 1457 01:22:14,000 --> 01:22:16,360 Speaker 4: for a couple of years and it was probably a 1458 01:22:16,400 --> 01:22:19,720 Speaker 4: little inflationary, but nothing like you know, during the Bid administration. 1459 01:22:20,360 --> 01:22:23,559 Speaker 4: And so it's what you need. The cost to drill 1460 01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:28,000 Speaker 4: a well. And since say twenty eighteen has nearly doubled 1461 01:22:28,720 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 4: yet the cost, you know, but the price of oil 1462 01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:37,479 Speaker 4: has been really low and relative to that, so it's 1463 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 4: you know, things are more efficient in drilling, particularly in drilling. 1464 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 4: You're getting a lot more done for less, but it's 1465 01:22:44,680 --> 01:22:49,360 Speaker 4: still it's tight, and it's been really tight. So now 1466 01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:54,360 Speaker 4: everybody's you know, we're moving towards this program. We own 1467 01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:57,360 Speaker 4: our own fract fleet, so we can get frackier no problem. 1468 01:22:57,520 --> 01:23:01,360 Speaker 4: Chris Wright, the US Energy Secretary, his old company, Liberty 1469 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:04,320 Speaker 4: Energy that he founded, which is really a phenomenal frag company, 1470 01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,760 Speaker 4: talking to the one of the managers of the Rocky 1471 01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:11,080 Speaker 4: Mountain Division, and they had nothing on their schedule or 1472 01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:14,720 Speaker 4: nearly nothing in February. Now they're sold out to the 1473 01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:18,400 Speaker 4: end of the year. How happened since you know, March first, 1474 01:23:18,920 --> 01:23:21,080 Speaker 4: So drill and riggs are the same thing. You can't 1475 01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:23,120 Speaker 4: find them. You know, it's a it's going to get 1476 01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 4: really really tight, and a US response in a sudden 1477 01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:29,439 Speaker 4: increase in production isn't really going to happen. That it's 1478 01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:33,360 Speaker 4: gonna take a long time to We're just honestly, it's 1479 01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:37,800 Speaker 4: it's what's coming off the market overseas. We can't make 1480 01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:39,160 Speaker 4: that up. But it's not gonna be made up in 1481 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:42,479 Speaker 4: Venezuela either. So what happens is will be higher prices 1482 01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:46,280 Speaker 4: unless we can uh, you know, make peace with the 1483 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:48,720 Speaker 4: Iranian uh, you know forces that are left. 1484 01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:53,920 Speaker 1: Well, you bring up a great point. America's infrastructure is 1485 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,640 Speaker 1: not created to handle this kind of a crisis. I'm 1486 01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: looking at my right that Brent crude is about one 1487 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:03,599 Speaker 1: fourteen a barrel. Wt I crewed is about one hundred 1488 01:24:03,600 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 1: and one dollars a barrel. At those at those levels, 1489 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 1: gaes lane equates to almost four dollars a gallon in 1490 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 1: the Midwest. Of course, in California it's six and seven 1491 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:17,040 Speaker 1: dollars a gallon because of taxes, and you're saying taxes, Yeah, 1492 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 1: the infrastructure we have is such that even as somebody 1493 01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 1: would say to you and Ham and all these other guys, 1494 01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:27,720 Speaker 1: we need to get thirty percent more production. That is 1495 01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:28,599 Speaker 1: not going to happen. 1496 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:32,960 Speaker 4: No, that's not gonna happen. Not any that's just not 1497 01:24:33,080 --> 01:24:35,200 Speaker 4: going to happen. I mean, you know there's stuff like 1498 01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:38,799 Speaker 4: out West, you have all these lawsuits, these activist groups 1499 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 4: they sue over you know, grass or birds or water 1500 01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:48,080 Speaker 4: for whatever, and they tie up lease transactions for years 1501 01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:48,559 Speaker 4: of all there. 1502 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 6: It just drill somewhere else. 1503 01:24:50,400 --> 01:24:53,280 Speaker 4: But it's it's a nuisance in that, you know, you 1504 01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 4: have to move around. 1505 01:24:53,960 --> 01:24:54,320 Speaker 1: A little bit. 1506 01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:56,800 Speaker 4: Not that big of deal. Is All they do is 1507 01:24:56,880 --> 01:25:01,600 Speaker 4: make it more expensive for consumers. The same thing with California. 1508 01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:04,479 Speaker 4: They you know, they put these green mandates on the 1509 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:05,679 Speaker 4: overregulate industry. 1510 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:06,840 Speaker 1: We all know that about. 1511 01:25:06,560 --> 01:25:10,200 Speaker 4: California, and they shut the refineries down. People still driving 1512 01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 4: gas cars that are still driving for a long, long 1513 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,800 Speaker 4: long time. The grid is nowhere near ready to move 1514 01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 4: transportation onto, you know, the California grid, and consumers don't 1515 01:25:22,320 --> 01:25:24,800 Speaker 4: seem to want it anyway. So they you know, so 1516 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:29,040 Speaker 4: they're they're shipping, they're oil in from from outside where 1517 01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 4: they could excuse me, they're they're gasoline. They could have 1518 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 4: produced it right on site, but they just shut down 1519 01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:37,440 Speaker 4: another refinery. New York does the same thing. They disallow 1520 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:42,760 Speaker 4: fracking in the Marcella's shale, which is hugely prolific. Would 1521 01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:46,080 Speaker 4: be would be just a game changer for New York residents. 1522 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:49,280 Speaker 4: You know, twenty seven excuse me, twenty six percent of 1523 01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:52,560 Speaker 4: all children in New York City live out below the 1524 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:57,360 Speaker 4: poverty liver level. Why why wouldn't they allow racking? Why 1525 01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,360 Speaker 4: why wouldn't they allow this cass extraction take off? It 1526 01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 4: would be huge, not measured in millions, but measured in 1527 01:26:03,360 --> 01:26:06,920 Speaker 4: hundreds of billions of dollars, you know, in terms of gas, uh, 1528 01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:10,560 Speaker 4: you know, overrides and state on property, and you know 1529 01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:13,680 Speaker 4: taxation on you know, companies coming in workers, on and 1530 01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:16,599 Speaker 4: on and on and and so it's just it's. 1531 01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 13: Just a shame. 1532 01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:21,200 Speaker 4: It's just a shame. How you have stuff like a 1533 01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:25,160 Speaker 4: war going on, and everybody's concerned about oil prices, but 1534 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:29,280 Speaker 4: you have a war at home, uh generally brought about 1535 01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:34,839 Speaker 4: and you know uh red uh excuse me, Blue states, 1536 01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:37,960 Speaker 4: you know, and especially urban areas. So we're kind of 1537 01:26:38,000 --> 01:26:40,160 Speaker 4: at a little bit of a war with the left 1538 01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:42,360 Speaker 4: right now, and oil people are both left and right, 1539 01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:44,640 Speaker 4: probably more right than left. But we're kind of at 1540 01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:48,800 Speaker 4: a war between practicality and ideology, and the ideology war 1541 01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,280 Speaker 4: wins a lot of the times the United States. And 1542 01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:53,120 Speaker 4: who pays for the cost of that war? 1543 01:26:53,160 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: As the consumer, absolutely and so that you vote with 1544 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:59,320 Speaker 1: your with your fad and with your tires. And governor 1545 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:02,599 Speaker 1: Local of New York is making it a passion plea 1546 01:27:02,720 --> 01:27:05,840 Speaker 1: now for the so called millionaires and billionaires to be 1547 01:27:05,960 --> 01:27:09,640 Speaker 1: patriotic come back to New York to support all their 1548 01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:12,559 Speaker 1: social services. Well, I never heard of a state talk 1549 01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:16,320 Speaker 1: about patriotism, and many have gone to Florida because it 1550 01:27:16,439 --> 01:27:19,759 Speaker 1: is less expensive. In fact, the how about this? The budget, 1551 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:22,840 Speaker 1: just the budget of New York City where their eight 1552 01:27:22,920 --> 01:27:27,200 Speaker 1: million residents, is ridiculous compared to like the budget said 1553 01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 1: so to speak, and state of California. In fact, I 1554 01:27:31,120 --> 01:27:33,880 Speaker 1: made a screen capture of this that New York City 1555 01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 1: spends one hundred and thirty billion dollars a year on 1556 01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:40,680 Speaker 1: its annual budget for eight million people. One hundred and 1557 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:43,640 Speaker 1: thirty billion. For example, in Florida, the entire state of 1558 01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:47,639 Speaker 1: Florida spends one hundred and seventeen billion which is twelve 1559 01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 1: billion dollars less, and they have three times the number 1560 01:27:50,439 --> 01:27:53,599 Speaker 1: of people. So the budget, the budget of New York 1561 01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:57,759 Speaker 1: City by itself is ridiculous compared to Florida. 1562 01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:02,439 Speaker 4: It's so bad New York. Walking through the Soho section 1563 01:28:02,600 --> 01:28:07,479 Speaker 4: and there was just garbage everywhere. The snow hadn't been removed, 1564 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,120 Speaker 4: garbage was blown around, dog graft. 1565 01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:11,240 Speaker 11: Was all over the street. 1566 01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:12,040 Speaker 6: I was walking. 1567 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:16,479 Speaker 4: It was really bad, the sidewalks, and I'm like, what happened? 1568 01:28:16,680 --> 01:28:17,360 Speaker 7: What happened? 1569 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,840 Speaker 4: And so you get nothing for your money. That's why 1570 01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:23,519 Speaker 4: people are leaving, you know, and huge, huge taxes and 1571 01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,479 Speaker 4: you know, and you know now they'll make an appeal 1572 01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:31,519 Speaker 4: for patriotism. That's not really patriotism. It's it's really it's grafted, 1573 01:28:32,040 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 4: you know, and it's it's just a shame, you know, 1574 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:38,439 Speaker 4: they don't they don't do anything for the poor. They'll 1575 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:40,640 Speaker 4: scream about it. I guess a lot of times if 1576 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:43,200 Speaker 4: you say, yeah, we're gonna help the poor, you feel 1577 01:28:43,240 --> 01:28:46,800 Speaker 4: better about yourself. Then you screw them with creating obstacles 1578 01:28:46,840 --> 01:28:47,439 Speaker 4: for industry. 1579 01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:51,280 Speaker 1: Well, that's same thing as freezing the rent. So landlords 1580 01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:55,400 Speaker 1: they have ever increasing maintenance expenses, ever increasing real estate 1581 01:28:55,520 --> 01:28:59,879 Speaker 1: tax expenses. They can't pass on those expenses to apartment dwellers. 1582 01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:03,280 Speaker 1: The rents two damn high, and so the government brings 1583 01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:06,479 Speaker 1: about what they seek to avoid. You want prolific housing, 1584 01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:08,679 Speaker 1: you want housing to be built, but you can't build 1585 01:29:08,720 --> 01:29:11,080 Speaker 1: it because of the taxes and the maintenance. There's no 1586 01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:14,280 Speaker 1: new construction happened in New York City on apartment buildings 1587 01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:17,519 Speaker 1: because you can't it's too expensive. Then then the city government. 1588 01:29:17,600 --> 01:29:21,080 Speaker 1: Mom Donnie, who's a communist on the left, is saying, basically, 1589 01:29:21,160 --> 01:29:23,880 Speaker 1: you know what we need, we need to have a 1590 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:27,240 Speaker 1: rent freeze. But by freezing rent, you have less units, 1591 01:29:27,400 --> 01:29:30,320 Speaker 1: not more. That they bring about where they seek to avoid. 1592 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,760 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, well, absolutely, you know, you 1593 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:37,160 Speaker 4: know Mondammie and the rest. You know, really, and this 1594 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:42,719 Speaker 4: includes the climate activist. It's really it's just more about control. 1595 01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:46,360 Speaker 4: They just have this thing where they just they're not 1596 01:29:46,520 --> 01:29:49,639 Speaker 4: happy unless they're you know, have absolute control and dictate 1597 01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:52,439 Speaker 4: how people live. And I don't know what it is, 1598 01:29:52,600 --> 01:29:56,360 Speaker 4: but it's it is a form of Marxism. And you know, 1599 01:29:56,400 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 4: I see gretith Unberg's made a hard turn towards Marxist. 1600 01:30:00,479 --> 01:30:04,479 Speaker 4: She went from anti oil to uh anti Israel, and 1601 01:30:04,640 --> 01:30:08,040 Speaker 4: now she is uh uh you know anti us will 1602 01:30:08,040 --> 01:30:12,080 Speaker 4: always get us and uh and but pro Iranian oil, 1603 01:30:13,760 --> 01:30:15,519 Speaker 4: that's worried about the oil getting out of her rant. 1604 01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:17,200 Speaker 4: I thought she was hold it, hold it up. 1605 01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:17,639 Speaker 6: Confused. 1606 01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:18,679 Speaker 1: I thought there was no oil. 1607 01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:21,720 Speaker 4: So I she's just another Marxist. And it's just it's 1608 01:30:21,960 --> 01:30:24,960 Speaker 4: it's really a it's really a shame. It's just it's 1609 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:28,840 Speaker 4: a it's just unfortunate. It's uh, you know, we're and uh, Bill, 1610 01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:29,519 Speaker 4: I hope you don't mind. 1611 01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:30,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna plug. 1612 01:30:30,120 --> 01:30:32,800 Speaker 4: I'm on the show actually because I wrote a book. 1613 01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:35,240 Speaker 4: It's about starting with my frag company, and it's really 1614 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:38,280 Speaker 4: about entrepreneurism than it is about uh than it is 1615 01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:42,000 Speaker 4: about the orgastrosis. But but oil, the oil industry is 1616 01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:45,519 Speaker 4: truly entrepreneurial and it's driven by people finding better, quicker, 1617 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:48,839 Speaker 4: faster ways to do the same thing. And it's amazing. 1618 01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:51,280 Speaker 4: You know, when this whole shale up and started, we 1619 01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:53,880 Speaker 4: were drilling one mile laterals that means you you drill 1620 01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:55,639 Speaker 4: down and make a turn and I need to return, 1621 01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:58,000 Speaker 4: which is unheard of you know at the time, and 1622 01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:00,479 Speaker 4: then you go out and stay in zone means you know, 1623 01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 4: you can. You can you could hit a dinner. 1624 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:04,400 Speaker 6: Plate, you know, a mile away. 1625 01:31:04,920 --> 01:31:08,040 Speaker 4: And now we're now we're advanced up to people are 1626 01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 4: doing you know, five miles out. 1627 01:31:10,360 --> 01:31:11,160 Speaker 13: It's just crazy. 1628 01:31:11,360 --> 01:31:13,400 Speaker 4: I mean five miles out and you can still get 1629 01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:16,720 Speaker 4: a dinner plate five miles away. Uh, tracking Horzon to 1630 01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:19,879 Speaker 4: the grid. So there's always this entrepreneurism in my industry 1631 01:31:20,439 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 4: and it's uh, and it's funny. Then you you run 1632 01:31:22,880 --> 01:31:27,120 Speaker 4: into the bondami and the AOC types where they punish 1633 01:31:27,200 --> 01:31:31,240 Speaker 4: it with taxes and regulation, and uh, it's just it's 1634 01:31:31,280 --> 01:31:33,559 Speaker 4: a shame. It's a it's you really you really see 1635 01:31:33,600 --> 01:31:35,840 Speaker 4: it in both energy creation and energy policy. 1636 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:38,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. About a minute remaining Dan Doyle, and that is Uh, 1637 01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:42,880 Speaker 1: let's say things go according to Hoyle, very close to Doyle. 1638 01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:45,559 Speaker 1: Things go according to Hoyle. And let's say a month 1639 01:31:45,600 --> 01:31:49,360 Speaker 1: from now, there's peace, no home moves straight is open. Uh, 1640 01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 1: the Middle East is back in business. 1641 01:31:51,880 --> 01:31:52,000 Speaker 5: Uh. 1642 01:31:52,280 --> 01:31:55,679 Speaker 1: People think, okay, prices are going to drop immediately. Won't 1643 01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:59,479 Speaker 1: this be prices drop over the next one year by 1644 01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:00,599 Speaker 1: the best in areas. 1645 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:03,240 Speaker 4: I think a lot of people are saying. Beyond that, 1646 01:32:03,720 --> 01:32:07,719 Speaker 4: the strip is showing, you know, derivatives market is showing 1647 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,599 Speaker 4: elevated prices, you know, in the middle of twenty twenty seven. 1648 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:13,040 Speaker 4: Right now some people are saying should be higher. I 1649 01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:16,000 Speaker 4: think before we didn't really have a war premium on 1650 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:19,759 Speaker 4: oil prices. Since Iran there is a premium. And also 1651 01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:24,479 Speaker 4: I don't I don't know that Iran stands down. Now 1652 01:32:24,560 --> 01:32:28,040 Speaker 4: you've got this escalating into multi countries. You know, points 1653 01:32:28,080 --> 01:32:33,439 Speaker 4: getting attacked, the Amirates, Saudi Arabia. You know, it's kind 1654 01:32:33,479 --> 01:32:36,120 Speaker 4: of all of the above is everybody does everybody stop 1655 01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 4: war at the same time the Iranians Potters gas field 1656 01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:42,960 Speaker 4: just just was attacked, the biggest the gas field in 1657 01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:43,280 Speaker 4: the world. 1658 01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:45,880 Speaker 7: So I don't know. 1659 01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 4: I don't know that we settled back down anytime soon. 1660 01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:50,800 Speaker 1: I don't think so. 1661 01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 4: And I also think there's a chance to think could 1662 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:55,879 Speaker 4: go to guerrilla war and you know, drones hitting tankers 1663 01:32:55,920 --> 01:32:57,960 Speaker 4: trying to get through the straits of Hormus. 1664 01:32:58,080 --> 01:33:00,680 Speaker 1: So which gonna have to see yep. I tell my 1665 01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:03,800 Speaker 1: conservative friends, this is something that must be done and 1666 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:05,800 Speaker 1: must be done correctly, and it's going to take a 1667 01:33:05,840 --> 01:33:09,240 Speaker 1: long time. We live in the immediacy. Whatever happens in 1668 01:33:09,320 --> 01:33:13,120 Speaker 1: the world, we want immediate satisfaction life doesn't work that way. 1669 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:16,960 Speaker 1: But I'm glad you're there, Dan Doyle of Reliance Wealth Services, 1670 01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:20,840 Speaker 1: and I've seen your stuff.

Problem And so we need consistency, we 1678 01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:48,439 Speaker 1: need people to stand together. We have to understand that 1679 01:33:48,680 --> 01:33:51,479 Speaker 1: NATO is now coming with us. In fact, this morning, 1680 01:33:51,760 --> 01:33:55,439 Speaker 1: Secretary General Mark Rutt On Sunday offered a full throated 1681 01:33:55,600 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 1: endorsement of President Donald Trump's military efforts against Iran. SETI 1682 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:03,639 Speaker 1: expecial nations of NATO that come together to support him. 1683 01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:06,760 Speaker 1: Now that is a shock to some because some want 1684 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,640 Speaker 1: to say that Jews are driving the bus, and I 1685 01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:15,599 Speaker 1: semis of course, but I'm telling that Japan, South Korea, India, 1686 01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:20,679 Speaker 1: the Five Gulf States, NATO is standing with Donald Trump 1687 01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:23,599 Speaker 1: in these efforts. And I know it's going to be difficult. 1688 01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:25,280 Speaker 1: I know it's hard, especially if you have a loved 1689 01:34:25,280 --> 01:34:28,200 Speaker 1: one in the military, but we must see this thing through. 1690 01:34:28,280 --> 01:34:31,200 Speaker 1: To its logical conclusion. And I pray at some point 1691 01:34:31,280 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 1: that peace will come to the Middle East, and it 1692 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:36,479 Speaker 1: must come because of the policies of Donald Trump. Go 1693 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:40,320 Speaker 1: Cunningham with you coming up next as an experson on 1694 01:34:40,760 --> 01:34:43,679 Speaker 1: Doctor John Mills on Wolken Moore with You Every Sunday 1695 01:34:43,720 --> 01:35:06,360 Speaker 1: Night by Billy cunning Him the great American Wolchism has 1696 01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:09,679 Speaker 1: taken over the world, infecting like a cancer almost every 1697 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:15,200 Speaker 1: American institution. Professor John Mills as a Canadian philosopher, psychoanalyst 1698 01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:18,560 Speaker 1: and retired clinical psychologists, and what he has done is 1699 01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:21,600 Speaker 1: offered the first book to offer a scholarly critique of 1700 01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:25,760 Speaker 1: the social justice ideology that has saturated almost every part 1701 01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:28,680 Speaker 1: of American life. And doctor John Mills, welcome to the 1702 01:35:28,720 --> 01:35:32,640 Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham Show. Let's go back in time. We spent generations, 1703 01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:36,439 Speaker 1: many years making sure that a person was judged not 1704 01:35:36,640 --> 01:35:38,439 Speaker 1: by the color of their skin, but by the content 1705 01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:41,840 Speaker 1: of their character. We worked hard to get discrimination out 1706 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:45,240 Speaker 1: of the workplace for the persons of color, for Jews, 1707 01:35:45,320 --> 01:35:48,880 Speaker 1: for Catholics, for anyone. We have passed laws upon laws, 1708 01:35:49,320 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 1: and we've had thousands of lawsuits filed, and most of 1709 01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:55,680 Speaker 1: which have been successful. That says, you know what, you 1710 01:35:55,760 --> 01:35:59,160 Speaker 1: can't judge a person based upon their representation in a 1711 01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 1: race or report, and a gender is based upon their 1712 01:36:02,320 --> 01:36:05,960 Speaker 1: personal behavior. So, doctor John Mills, how and when do 1713 01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,200 Speaker 1: we get so seriously off track? 1714 01:36:11,240 --> 01:36:15,400 Speaker 13: I just want to laugh hearing that, because it is comical. 1715 01:36:15,520 --> 01:36:18,240 Speaker 13: Isn't it that we could have that we could have 1716 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:24,600 Speaker 13: such a retrograde regression? How is it that the society 1717 01:36:24,720 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 13: could come full swing and and engage in this kind 1718 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 13: of lunacy in today's age? Well, to answer the question, 1719 01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:40,360 Speaker 13: I mean, it's not simple. There's many different, you know, 1720 01:36:40,720 --> 01:36:47,920 Speaker 13: complexifications and motives behind this new culture wars. You know, 1721 01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:52,200 Speaker 13: it could have been within the last let's say, at 1722 01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:55,760 Speaker 13: let's say two decades, has been brewing in the academy. 1723 01:36:57,040 --> 01:37:01,880 Speaker 13: But really with the with the pandemic and particularly I 1724 01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:06,839 Speaker 13: think the death of George Floyd, it really really sparked 1725 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:11,960 Speaker 13: a whole new pandemic and in the way that we've 1726 01:37:12,240 --> 01:37:19,439 Speaker 13: come to view our modern societies. And unfortunately it's a 1727 01:37:19,560 --> 01:37:22,040 Speaker 13: very simplistic narrative, isn't. 1728 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:24,040 Speaker 1: It a lot of the John Mills at the bottom 1729 01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:27,200 Speaker 1: of the at the bottom of this pyramid, isn't it racism? 1730 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:31,680 Speaker 1: Isn't it. Sexism is an anti semitism to judge a 1731 01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:36,559 Speaker 1: person based upon their membership and a particular race, gender, 1732 01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:39,840 Speaker 1: or social construct. That that is the heart and soul 1733 01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:42,240 Speaker 1: of discrimination is what liberals are doing. 1734 01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:49,680 Speaker 13: Well, Yes, it seems it seems to be very much 1735 01:37:50,640 --> 01:37:54,320 Speaker 13: the case that we're being judged. People are being judged. 1736 01:37:54,400 --> 01:37:59,560 Speaker 13: Wherever you fall into some identity group based upon your identity, 1737 01:37:59,800 --> 01:38:07,880 Speaker 13: it collapses everyone down into a very reductive, ontological, you know, 1738 01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:14,120 Speaker 13: way of being. So, you know, like the whole thing 1739 01:38:14,200 --> 01:38:17,720 Speaker 13: is very foreign to me, like as a psychologist, as 1740 01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:21,719 Speaker 13: an analyst who seize people, or at least before I retired, 1741 01:38:22,760 --> 01:38:27,679 Speaker 13: as individuals come in for help. Now everybody's just thrown 1742 01:38:27,760 --> 01:38:32,240 Speaker 13: into a group, a category based upon the color of 1743 01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:38,760 Speaker 13: their skin or what however they self identify, and it's 1744 01:38:39,240 --> 01:38:45,000 Speaker 13: very divisive in society. It actually doesn't capture the reality 1745 01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:51,519 Speaker 13: or social reality of how people are. So I mean, 1746 01:38:51,640 --> 01:38:56,720 Speaker 13: like you know, people, you know, people aren't you know, classified, 1747 01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:00,840 Speaker 13: or they don't go around thinking in terms of the race. 1748 01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:04,880 Speaker 13: I mean only in terms of this way. You know, 1749 01:39:05,000 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 13: identity is very you know, diffuse and very overdetermined. So 1750 01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 13: when we're encouraged to thinking in simple, dicotomous ways that 1751 01:39:18,760 --> 01:39:22,040 Speaker 13: you have one group that is this way and the 1752 01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:27,519 Speaker 13: other groups that way. It automatically, artificially creates a division 1753 01:39:28,120 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 13: that isn't necessarily there in real life, and. 1754 01:39:33,040 --> 01:39:36,200 Speaker 1: What we see in major US cities, especially in New 1755 01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:38,760 Speaker 1: York and now with the war in Iran ongoing, I 1756 01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:41,680 Speaker 1: think successfully. But at this point, I pray to God 1757 01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:43,920 Speaker 1: Trump knows what he's doing to work this darned thing out. 1758 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:47,080 Speaker 1: But let's face this, that your membership in a group 1759 01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:50,800 Speaker 1: determines the outcome of the success or failure in your life. 1760 01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:54,280 Speaker 1: And I think you're exactly right. Whether it was March 1761 01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:57,679 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty when the nation largely shut down because 1762 01:39:57,720 --> 01:40:00,240 Speaker 1: of COVID or in the summer of twenty twenty kind 1763 01:40:00,280 --> 01:40:05,040 Speaker 1: of gathered momentum with Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, et cetera. 1764 01:40:05,400 --> 01:40:07,639 Speaker 1: And there were and we had Obama in the White House, 1765 01:40:08,160 --> 01:40:11,040 Speaker 1: and he wanted to be an example. He should have 1766 01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:13,759 Speaker 1: been an example that America's turned the page on racial 1767 01:40:13,800 --> 01:40:16,960 Speaker 1: identity politics. Many of my friends I know voted for him. 1768 01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:18,560 Speaker 1: I did not vote for him either time. Many of 1769 01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:21,240 Speaker 1: my friends did. They wanted to prove they were not racist, 1770 01:40:21,640 --> 01:40:24,000 Speaker 1: and so we got over fifty percent of the vote, 1771 01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:27,880 Speaker 1: and that was irrelevant. And so beginning with Obama, like 1772 01:40:28,000 --> 01:40:31,120 Speaker 1: in twenty eight, twenty nine, what was critical race theory? 1773 01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:35,120 Speaker 1: Identity politics, dei, et cetera. Can you explain to the 1774 01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:38,719 Speaker 1: American people, doctor John Mills, what is critical race theory 1775 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:41,240 Speaker 1: and why does that hurt individuals so much? 1776 01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:52,120 Speaker 13: Well, in a nutshell, it's an unfortunate, you know, theory, 1777 01:40:52,840 --> 01:41:01,559 Speaker 13: because it wants to basically claim that anyone who comes 1778 01:41:01,600 --> 01:41:06,360 Speaker 13: from a Western background, whether that be unfortunately the term 1779 01:41:06,439 --> 01:41:12,960 Speaker 13: is white or white whiteness theory, whiteness studies, anyone who 1780 01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:19,240 Speaker 13: has a Western or a European, An, English, or an 1781 01:41:19,240 --> 01:41:26,400 Speaker 13: American heritage is automatically cast as a racist, is cast 1782 01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:31,519 Speaker 13: as a white supremacist, is cast as an oppressor that 1783 01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:38,800 Speaker 13: oppresses anyone who is what we would call a minoritized group. Now, 1784 01:41:39,120 --> 01:41:43,040 Speaker 13: of course, the North America is a lot different than 1785 01:41:43,120 --> 01:41:46,400 Speaker 13: other parts of the world or the global South. So 1786 01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:54,120 Speaker 13: let's let's stay on that. The notion that the entire 1787 01:41:54,320 --> 01:42:00,640 Speaker 13: history of civilization has been has been largely based in 1788 01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:14,040 Speaker 13: Greco Roman, European and English enlightenment. Uh that science, that reason, 1789 01:42:14,560 --> 01:42:17,800 Speaker 13: that medicine, all these things that we just take for 1790 01:42:18,000 --> 01:42:23,000 Speaker 13: granted now is now being seen as the very thing 1791 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:30,680 Speaker 13: that's causing suffering to minoritized groups. Seems to be, you know, 1792 01:42:30,800 --> 01:42:37,120 Speaker 13: the big propaganda ruse of the century. So I don't 1793 01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:41,439 Speaker 13: understand it myself. Fully, I'll admit that these are things 1794 01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:44,800 Speaker 13: that benefit all of us, you know, the history of ideas, right, 1795 01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:51,280 Speaker 13: I mean, but you know, it's it's convenient now to 1796 01:42:51,800 --> 01:42:56,120 Speaker 13: you know, just point a finger of blame that you know, 1797 01:42:56,360 --> 01:43:01,720 Speaker 13: my majority group is to be you know, slided for 1798 01:43:02,400 --> 01:43:04,960 Speaker 13: causing the collective suffering of all other people. 1799 01:43:05,439 --> 01:43:08,400 Speaker 1: And doctor John Mills, author of the book Woke, there 1800 01:43:08,400 --> 01:43:11,759 Speaker 1: aren't millions of Europeans trying to move into Muslim countries. 1801 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,560 Speaker 1: It's the opposite. I almost consider this to be in 1802 01:43:14,680 --> 01:43:20,080 Speaker 1: Europe cultural suicide or suicidal empathy. I can't imagine countries 1803 01:43:20,120 --> 01:43:23,760 Speaker 1: surviving long term when the birth rate among the indigenous 1804 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:26,920 Speaker 1: peoples of Europe is about one point two per woman 1805 01:43:27,400 --> 01:43:30,880 Speaker 1: and the birth rate of Muslim populations are four point six. 1806 01:43:31,439 --> 01:43:34,599 Speaker 1: I moved out ahead about thirty years, and it's obvious 1807 01:43:34,720 --> 01:43:38,600 Speaker 1: that the Muslims, coming with the viewpoint of anti Western philosophy, 1808 01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:43,200 Speaker 1: is going to dominate England, France, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, et cetera. 1809 01:43:43,560 --> 01:43:46,599 Speaker 1: You also have a column. Some one of your topics 1810 01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:52,599 Speaker 1: is identified as as transgenderism, and that is we now 1811 01:43:52,720 --> 01:43:54,880 Speaker 1: are told to believe that I may be a male, 1812 01:43:55,360 --> 01:43:58,280 Speaker 1: but I will be treated as a female if I 1813 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 1: voice the words I'm a female. Well, even though I'm 1814 01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,720 Speaker 1: an x Y and I have male geniteia and I 1815 01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:07,599 Speaker 1: am a male. But I can switch gender simply by 1816 01:44:07,680 --> 01:44:10,240 Speaker 1: saying something different than what I am. That used to 1817 01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:14,560 Speaker 1: be called a delusion or paranoid schizophrenia with effective components. 1818 01:44:15,040 --> 01:44:18,240 Speaker 1: But now if you say, doctor John Mills, I'm no 1819 01:44:18,360 --> 01:44:21,679 Speaker 1: longer a man. I want to be doctor Joan Mills. 1820 01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:25,479 Speaker 1: I have to turn my reason off and accept you 1821 01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:28,679 Speaker 1: differently than what you are. How craze is the notion 1822 01:44:28,840 --> 01:44:32,479 Speaker 1: in your viewpoint of transgenderism that's loosened that gradeschools to 1823 01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:35,800 Speaker 1: high schools to colleges. A person can switch genders back 1824 01:44:35,840 --> 01:44:38,800 Speaker 1: and forth, and God helps someone who says I'm not 1825 01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:41,360 Speaker 1: playing into your game? When did that happen? And how 1826 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 1: bad is that one? 1827 01:44:44,880 --> 01:44:50,360 Speaker 13: Once again, I'm chuckling over here, But this is a 1828 01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:58,080 Speaker 13: complicated issue. On one hand, there's been a decoupling of 1829 01:44:59,479 --> 01:45:05,519 Speaker 13: sex meeting biological sex from gender construction, and so we 1830 01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:09,840 Speaker 13: like we went from the notion that you have a 1831 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:15,439 Speaker 13: you know, you have a biological binary sex male female too, 1832 01:45:15,640 --> 01:45:20,439 Speaker 13: now that you know, sex is a social construction and follows, 1833 01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:25,880 Speaker 13: so it falls on a spectrum. And this is just 1834 01:45:26,080 --> 01:45:28,880 Speaker 13: one of the you know, the things that you know. 1835 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:33,840 Speaker 13: Of course, people you know, people can't buy they get 1836 01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:39,080 Speaker 13: been out of shape about. But the question of gender 1837 01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:44,320 Speaker 13: is another issue. I mean, we we can identify with 1838 01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:50,040 Speaker 13: both female and male aspects of our personalities. I mean 1839 01:45:50,120 --> 01:45:54,559 Speaker 13: we we internalized both of our parents growing up. I mean, 1840 01:45:54,840 --> 01:46:00,000 Speaker 13: uh so, so it's a really complicated matter. But unfortun 1841 01:46:00,400 --> 01:46:04,760 Speaker 13: when it gets mired down in the notion that we're 1842 01:46:04,800 --> 01:46:09,760 Speaker 13: focused on the biological question, I think this is where 1843 01:46:10,439 --> 01:46:14,240 Speaker 13: most you know, most people get you know, bad shape. 1844 01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 1: So speak and doctor John Mills, you have topics involving 1845 01:46:17,240 --> 01:46:20,840 Speaker 1: other issues, such as cancel culture that somehow, I think 1846 01:46:20,920 --> 01:46:22,800 Speaker 1: for the first time in a long time, this week 1847 01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:26,679 Speaker 1: the White House put up a statue of Christopher Columbus 1848 01:46:27,320 --> 01:46:31,040 Speaker 1: and which was considered to be a racist act by 1849 01:46:31,120 --> 01:46:34,080 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and that we have to cancel the Western 1850 01:46:34,600 --> 01:46:38,640 Speaker 1: democratic culture which has benefited the world so greatly. What 1851 01:46:38,720 --> 01:46:42,639 Speaker 1: are your views on the cancel culture movement that Western 1852 01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:46,080 Speaker 1: civilization is not worth saving and that the destruction there 1853 01:46:46,160 --> 01:46:49,599 Speaker 1: is there is that thereof is required by many liberals. 1854 01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:51,360 Speaker 1: What's your view of cancel culture? 1855 01:46:54,880 --> 01:46:59,000 Speaker 13: Well, you know, having kind of gone through it myself, 1856 01:46:59,240 --> 01:47:03,920 Speaker 13: or people don't like what you have to say, what 1857 01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:08,599 Speaker 13: your questions or your criticisms are. I mean, we really 1858 01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:12,800 Speaker 13: have to we have to draw a line in the 1859 01:47:12,920 --> 01:47:17,719 Speaker 13: sand where we say it's okay that we disagree with things, 1860 01:47:17,880 --> 01:47:19,200 Speaker 13: but we have to debate them. 1861 01:47:20,560 --> 01:47:21,720 Speaker 4: We have to have. 1862 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:26,800 Speaker 13: Dialogue about these things, these ideas, these positions, because if 1863 01:47:26,840 --> 01:47:31,400 Speaker 13: we can't do that, we're going to lose our democracy. 1864 01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:36,280 Speaker 13: So the notion of a cancel culture is that it's 1865 01:47:36,360 --> 01:47:38,759 Speaker 13: a prohibition that you can't say something. 1866 01:47:39,400 --> 01:47:40,400 Speaker 4: Now, we have to. 1867 01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:47,280 Speaker 13: Develop a certain degree of tolerance for indifference, in tolerance 1868 01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:51,640 Speaker 13: for different points of view. We shouldn't we should not, 1869 01:47:52,200 --> 01:47:57,720 Speaker 13: under any circumstance, in my opinion, say you cannot do 1870 01:47:57,960 --> 01:48:01,080 Speaker 13: this or say this or whatever you should say it. 1871 01:48:01,840 --> 01:48:06,320 Speaker 13: You should and you should be subjected to scrutiny and 1872 01:48:06,439 --> 01:48:10,760 Speaker 13: the consequences of what you're you're advocating for or or 1873 01:48:11,120 --> 01:48:15,400 Speaker 13: you know disadvocating for and we have to we have 1874 01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:18,559 Speaker 13: to realize that we just can't have one way of thinking, 1875 01:48:18,760 --> 01:48:19,960 Speaker 13: or doing or being. 1876 01:48:21,280 --> 01:48:23,639 Speaker 1: Let me ask you a deeper question. That is, when 1877 01:48:23,720 --> 01:48:29,160 Speaker 1: I observe uh the sex status of medical students or 1878 01:48:29,280 --> 01:48:33,120 Speaker 1: a law students or college students in general, about two 1879 01:48:33,280 --> 01:48:36,839 Speaker 1: thirds of the current crop of medical students or female, 1880 01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:41,719 Speaker 1: about two thirds of law students are female. Women dominate 1881 01:48:42,200 --> 01:48:46,160 Speaker 1: many positions in the country. There the odds of eighty 1882 01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:49,400 Speaker 1: percent of the prisons are occupied by males. About two 1883 01:48:49,479 --> 01:48:51,320 Speaker 1: thirds of the suicides or females. 1884 01:48:51,880 --> 01:48:52,000 Speaker 6: UH. 1885 01:48:52,080 --> 01:48:54,679 Speaker 1: The great majority of crime is committed by by males, 1886 01:48:54,920 --> 01:48:58,360 Speaker 1: The great majority of drug use and are by males. 1887 01:48:59,120 --> 01:49:01,120 Speaker 1: I almost I've said it with tongue in cheek that 1888 01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:05,120 Speaker 1: maybe males, especially white males, need some sort of affirmative 1889 01:49:05,160 --> 01:49:08,920 Speaker 1: action because we've gone down one path of feminism to 1890 01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:15,320 Speaker 1: such an extent presently, that males, especially white males, more 1891 01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:18,080 Speaker 1: and more do not represent their status in the population. 1892 01:49:18,240 --> 01:49:21,200 Speaker 1: Their number, and that they have two thirds of college 1893 01:49:21,200 --> 01:49:24,200 Speaker 1: students that are female and two thirds of the professions 1894 01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:28,280 Speaker 1: are female indicates to me that the cancer culture and 1895 01:49:28,400 --> 01:49:31,200 Speaker 1: the viewpoint of men have taken a beating. The last 1896 01:49:31,240 --> 01:49:33,599 Speaker 1: five to ten or twenty years. You know, the toxic 1897 01:49:33,760 --> 01:49:37,840 Speaker 1: masculinity argument of the radical feminists that somehow a hairy 1898 01:49:38,040 --> 01:49:40,439 Speaker 1: s man needs to be knocked down a peg or 1899 01:49:40,520 --> 01:49:43,840 Speaker 1: two and his jobs need to be given to female's. 1900 01:49:44,200 --> 01:49:46,960 Speaker 1: What is your view of toxic masculinity and the impact 1901 01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:47,360 Speaker 1: on men. 1902 01:49:50,880 --> 01:50:00,240 Speaker 13: Well, these are loaded, you know, political terms, Like I'm 1903 01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:04,000 Speaker 13: not sure that I would at all agree that just 1904 01:50:04,840 --> 01:50:09,280 Speaker 13: because you're you're a man, that that you're toxic. 1905 01:50:10,200 --> 01:50:13,200 Speaker 7: I don't think I am, yeah, I mean just. 1906 01:50:13,320 --> 01:50:15,719 Speaker 13: Like I wouldn't agree that just because you're a woman 1907 01:50:15,960 --> 01:50:19,920 Speaker 13: that somehow, you know, like you have some uh you know, 1908 01:50:20,439 --> 01:50:27,160 Speaker 13: privilege over over men. So so these are really complex issues. 1909 01:50:27,320 --> 01:50:33,800 Speaker 13: Why why isn't the certain you know, females have gravitated 1910 01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:39,080 Speaker 13: toward certain professions or even in some cases don't dominate them. 1911 01:50:40,120 --> 01:50:43,960 Speaker 13: I I don't know if it's that, If if we 1912 01:50:44,040 --> 01:50:47,439 Speaker 13: can simply you know, the simplistically into that, I mean, 1913 01:50:48,160 --> 01:50:51,960 Speaker 13: like in my field there, like you said, there there's 1914 01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:59,920 Speaker 13: a predominant a number of women who have far surpas 1915 01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:06,880 Speaker 13: has been in helping profession meaning mental health. Right now, 1916 01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:12,439 Speaker 13: the people who are being so called being left out. 1917 01:51:14,000 --> 01:51:18,560 Speaker 13: Is is it simply because of their gender, or is 1918 01:51:18,600 --> 01:51:22,720 Speaker 13: it because they haven't prepared themselves for a certain occupation, 1919 01:51:22,960 --> 01:51:23,160 Speaker 13: you know. 1920 01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:25,439 Speaker 1: Doctor John Mills, it could be a little bit of both. 1921 01:51:26,160 --> 01:51:28,439 Speaker 1: One of the reviewers has said about your book, anyone 1922 01:51:28,560 --> 01:51:33,200 Speaker 1: concerned about the cultural vandalism of critical social justice should 1923 01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:35,320 Speaker 1: read the book We Got to Go.

And 1937 01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:17,599 Speaker 1: I'm sure individual Americans have different opinions on the subject 1938 01:52:17,680 --> 01:52:20,120 Speaker 1: that I don't agree with, but I'm respectful in hearing 1939 01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:23,160 Speaker 1: that opinion, something like eighty five to ninety percent of 1940 01:52:23,200 --> 01:52:26,680 Speaker 1: the megaworld at this point supports Donald Trump. The next 1941 01:52:26,760 --> 01:52:28,720 Speaker 1: twenty four hour is going to be difficult. According to 1942 01:52:28,800 --> 01:52:32,559 Speaker 1: media accounts, the President's given to Iran forty eight hours, 1943 01:52:32,600 --> 01:52:35,559 Speaker 1: which is up tomorrow evening. He also says that ICE 1944 01:52:35,640 --> 01:52:38,640 Speaker 1: agents are going to go into the TSA role. All 1945 01:52:38,720 --> 01:52:42,200 Speaker 1: hell's about to break loose everywhere. These are difficult issues, 1946 01:52:42,840 --> 01:52:44,800 Speaker 1: and I think together we must stand as one and 1947 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,880 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is not helpful. In fact, they're playing 1948 01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:50,720 Speaker 1: in the hands of the nation's enemies, especially Iran, who 1949 01:52:50,720 --> 01:52:54,120 Speaker 1: wants to cause chaosking division at home by not passing 1950 01:52:54,240 --> 01:52:57,920 Speaker 1: the funding for TSA and more. And it's a problem. 1951 01:52:58,880 --> 01:53:01,479 Speaker 1: But I hope by the time we get back together 1952 01:53:01,600 --> 01:53:03,599 Speaker 1: next Sunday night, these things are going to be more 1953 01:53:03,640 --> 01:53:05,760 Speaker 1: clear as to which direction is going to take. The 1954 01:53:05,840 --> 01:53:11,920 Speaker 1: only substitute in war for defeat is victory after victory 1955 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:15,200 Speaker 1: after victory. Bill Cunningham with you every Sunday night.
