1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to another busy broadcast week. On a beautiful fall

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,360
Speaker 1: Monday afternoon, I am Dan o'donald. Three hours of broadcast

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: excellence sore at the very least, and let's face it,

4
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: far more likely broadcast competence on the way your daily

5
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: Trump date coming up in the four o'clock hour. On

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: this the twenty seventh day of the federal government shut down.

7
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 1: And now there is a new panic on the political left.

8
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 1: It has nothing to do with President Trump's demolition of

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:37,480
Speaker 1: the East Wing of the White House. It has everything

10
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 1: to do with President Trump getting rid of snap benefits

11
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,639
Speaker 1: for millions of Americans. Democrats conveniently forget that. All they

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 1: need to do is convince five dem Senators to join

13
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: every single Republican in passing a clean continuing resolution, and

14
00:00:55,080 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: this shutdown would end to day daily Trump Day coming

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 1: up at the top of the four o'clock hour. In

16
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: the five o'clock hour. The presidential election of twenty twenty

17
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 1: eight has already begun even before the twenty twenty six midterms.

18
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: How do I know, because Democrat candidates are already inventing

19
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: new biographies for themselves. The hilarious reinvention of California Governor

20
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,759
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom going on an NBA podcast to say, essentially,

21
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: I was born a poor black child. That's coming up,

22
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: but first we begin with a terrifying thought for anybody

23
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: who is not crazy in New York that the next

24
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: mayor of the biggest city in America, the most important

25
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: city in America, or so. New Yorkers keep telling us

26
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: that an outright communist is about to be the mayor. Now,

27
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: crazy New Yorkers are overjoyed by this. They want Zoran, Mom, Donnie,

28
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 1: and they spent all weekend at a big rally telling

29
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: New Yorkers they're not crazy. Here's my darling, AOCS.

30
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: I just remember, in a time such as this, we

31
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 2: are not the crazy ones, New York City. We are

32
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 2: not the outlandish ones New York City. They want us

33
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: to think we are crazy.

34
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: We are sane.

35
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: Oh yes, when you have to remind people, we are

36
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: saying clearly you are sane, especially when you start shrieking

37
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: like this like three minutes later. In the Big Speech city.

38
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 3: Was built by the Irish escaping fan and Italians fleeing

39
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 3: fascism to escaping Holocaust Black Americans fleeing sand slavery and

40
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 3: Jim Crow, Latinos then seeking a better life, Native people

41
00:02:55,360 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: standing for themselves, Asian Americans coming together, and Queen.

42
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: If Brooklyn if a brim It's island in this country.

43
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 3: In addition to Bells, the freest stop this and greatest city.

44
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 1: On Earth, all she was missing there was the Howard Dean. Yeah,

45
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna go to Queens, We're gonna go to Staten

46
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:27,000

Speaker 1: voting is underway in New York City. That's why there

70
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: was the big rally yesterday featuring AOC featuring the left

71
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: wing Governor of New York, Kathy Hokeel all in support

72
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: of Zoron. Mom Donnie. Now, undoubtedly you here in Wisconsin

73
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 1: or wherever across this great country of ours, you're listening

74
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 1: to the Dan O'Donnell show on iHeartRadio. You have heard

75
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 1: a lot about Zohran, Mom, Donnie, and that he's a communist,

76
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,600
Speaker 1: that he has disastrous policies that are going to destroy

77
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: New York What I don't think I have heard is

78
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 1: people explaining to you just why his policies are doomed

79
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: to failure. We have a tendency in conservative media just

80
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 1: as much as the left. Well, nobody can be as

81
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: hyperbolic as the left, but we have this unfortunate tendency

82
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 1: to like left wing media, just repeat the same sort

83
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: of jingoistic phrases over and over and over again without

84
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: really backing up what it is we mean by them.

85
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 1: That's what we're going to do this hour, not repeat

86
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: jingoistic phrases. Of course, you know the reason we say

87
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: this show is about conservative thought and not just talk.

88
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 1: We are going to go through Zorn Mamdanni's key campaign

89
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: promises as outlined in his big rally yesterday, and explain

90
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: in detail why they are a fundamentally socialistic, if not

91
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:26,800
Speaker 1: openly communistic at heart, and why free market principles established

92
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: over centuries doom them to perpetual failure. In his big

93
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: speech yesterday, he outlined three major policy initiatives. All of

94
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: them sound fantastic, and it got me thinking as I

95
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 1: watched the entire mom Donnie's speech and was actually taken

96
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: with what an incredibly effective communicator. He was, Folks, Joseph

97
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: Stalin didn't rise to power in the Soviet Union because

98
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: he was some sort of wolf, because he was a

99
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 1: shrinking violet. No, it was because what he was proposing

100
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: was very widely supported. On its face, everything that Mamdanni

101
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: proposes sounds like a great idea unless you actually spend

102
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: five minutes or so really thinking about it. In this speech,

103
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: he outlined three major policy initiatives, and then, because he's

104
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 1: speaking to a bunch of brain dead children, he had

105
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: to lead them in a chat.

106
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 4: Here is what we stand for, my friends. We are

107
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 4: going to freeze the rent for more than two million

108
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 4: rent stabilized tenants and use every resource at our disposal

109
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 4: to build housing for everyone who needs it. We are

110
00:07:55,560 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 4: going to eliminate the fair on every single bus line

111
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 4: and make what are currently the slowest buses in the

112
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 4: nation move around this city with ease. You're going to

113
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 4: create universal childcare at no cost to parents.

114
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: But I tell you it sounds great, right. Here's the

115
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: chat now, so New.

116
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 4: Yorkers can raise their family in the city they love. Together,

117
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 4: New York, We're going to freeze the together New York.

118
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 4: We're gonna make buses fast and together, New York, We're

119
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:44,199
Speaker 4: gonna deliver universal We will make our city one where

120
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 4: every person who calls it home can live a dignified life.

121
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: All right. Three major policy initiatives there, and all three

122
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: are sort of emblematic of utopian socialism that has been

123
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: sweeping the American life left, particularly when it comes to

124
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:08,959
Speaker 1: city governments. Rent freezes, free public transportation, and free childcare

125
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: for all parents. Let's take on each of those in

126
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: depth and explain why they simply will not work. First,

127
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: freezing the rents.

128
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 4: We are going to freeze the rent for more than

129
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 4: two million rent stabilized tenants and use every resource at

130
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,920
Speaker 4: our disposal to build housing for everyone who needs it.

131
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: All right, So, how is it that rent freezes actually

132
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 1: cause prices to skyrocket and cause quality of life for

133
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: those renters to dramatically decline The simple rule of supply

134
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 1: and demand. What rent freezes do is to cap the

135
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 1: revenue that landlords are able to make well below market.

136
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: What this does, in turn, is discourage landlords from maintaining

137
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: or adding rental properties. Why would you rent out a

138
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: property when you can simply offer it for sale as

139
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,160
Speaker 1: a condo and you can get far more money than

140
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: you would get in even fifteen or twenty years worth

141
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: of rent controlled rent. This shrinks the total number of

142
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: rental units available. What that does, in turn is intensify

143
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: competition for the remaining units and push prices upwards as

144
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: people are getting into bidding wars to get the remaining

145
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: units that are not rent controlled. One thing that we've

146
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: known about years of rent controlled living in New York

147
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: is that people who have rent control departments never ever

148
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 1: ever leave them. And why would they. The rent is

149
00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: set at oftentimes nineteen seventies or nineteen eighties one rates,

150
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:03,559
Speaker 1: and no matter what, it's never ever going to go up.

151
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: So what happens is elderly family members will leave those

152
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: rent control departments to new tenants, never allowing the people

153
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 1: who rent freezes are meant to help lower income workers

154
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 1: get a foothold for housing. We actually saw this in

155
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: widespread rent controls during World War II, which shifted supply

156
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: in the ownership market. There were studies done that showed

157
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: rental units actually decreased by up to fifteen percent simply

158
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: because controls were put on how much you could charge

159
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: for rent. Even more recently, there was an expansion of

160
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:54,400
Speaker 1: rent control in San Francisco in nineteen ninety four. Wouldn't

161
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: you know it? Even fifty years after the World War

162
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 1: iiO rent controls, rent supply dropped an identical fifteen percent

163
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: for small multifamily buildings because people just weren't leaving. People

164
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: would get into rent controlled apartments, they would bequeath them

165
00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: to family members, leaving people who were looking for first

166
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 1: time homes out in the dust. Not only that, there

167
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: is a decided decline in housing quality because there's deferred

168
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: maintenance on those rent controlled properties. Frozen costs for rentals

169
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 1: don't halt rising costs for property taxes or insurance rates,

170
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 1: or utilities or repairs. Most US cities have those costs

171
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: at about four to five percent. Well, if landlords are

172
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: not allowed to increase rent who cover those costs, they

173
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 1: face squeezed profits, and oftentimes the thing that goes by

174
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 1: the wayside is upkeep. There have been past rent freezes

175
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: in New York City, buildings saw increase distress for closures

176
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: rows as revenues couldn't cover the expenses. In fact, there

177
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 1: was a Journal of Housing Economic survey done just last

178
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 1: year that confirmed rent controls lead to quote dilapidation of

179
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: rental units, reducing overall quality and forcing tenants into pricier alternatives.

180
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: Nobody wants to live in squalor. But if squalor is

181
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: all you can get with a rent controlled market, and

182
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: you can get something that's actually livable in a non

183
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:59,920
Speaker 1: rent controlled marketplace, you're going to go there. If poor

184
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: will we maintained units deteriorate to the point that they

185
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: become uninhabitable, which does happen, housing supply is further shrunk.

186
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: There are also issues with mixed buildings. So in New

187
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: York especially, there will be buildings high rises that will

188
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 1: have rent controlled apartments and units that are subject to

189
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: free market prices. What do you think landlords are going

190
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: to do for unregulated rents to offset the revenue that

191
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: they're losing from rents that they can increase. Obviously, they

192
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: are going to dramatically increase rent on those units that

193
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 1: are not rent controlled. A study of New York City's

194
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 1: apartment market done earlier this year showed that this could

195
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: raise non stabilized rents by ten to fifteen percent just

196
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: in the next couple of years. The issue, of course,

197
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,119
Speaker 1: is that while supply stays the same or even shrinks,

198
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: demand increases exponentially in unregulated rental units. This study found

199
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: that roughly sixty percent of renters in New York City

200
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: face steep rental hikes. Overall, city wide rents will rise

201
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: due to the one point four percent vacancy rate, meaning

202
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: almost nobody is leaving their apartments in New York As

203
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: far back as twenty eighteen, The Brookings Institution found that

204
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 1: this transfers benefits from future low income renters who face

205
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 1: five to seven percent higher entry rents to current renters,

206
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: oftentimes who are wealthier because they're older, because they are

207
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: able to spend more of their available resources on things

208
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 1: other than rent. They're never leaving. There is no supply,

209
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: and the more you expand rent freezes, the more you

210
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: are simply enriching un entrenched, already rented out bureaucracy at

211
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: the expense of younger, typically poorer people who are just

212
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: looking for affordable housing. Ironically, the poorest will suffer the

213
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 1: most under Mom Donnie's proposed rent freezes free city buses.

214
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: It's something that we're experimenting with here in Milwaukee with

215
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: the trolley. We'll get into that coming up next as

216
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: we take on Democrat, Socialist Communism is until Halloween. All

217
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 1: Halloween bumper music here on the Dan o'donald Show. Hope

218
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: everybody enjoyed trick or treating this past weekend. For those

219
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: who did this weekend, I know city of Milwaukee, I

220
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: think does Madison do Halloween as well. A number of

221
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 1: cities in southeast Wisconsin will do it this Friday. Our

222
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: community did Saturday. We do have up at Facebook, Facebook

223
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: dot com slash Dan o'donald Show. I'm going to put

224
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: them up on Instagram and on x later in the week.

225
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: We do have our official twenty twenty five o'donald family

226
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 1: Halloween costumes. Yes we did incorporate the dog, and yes

227
00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: we did base our costumes on the dog's name, which

228
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: happens to be Buddy. I think you can probably guess

229
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 1: where we're going with this, so I guess if you

230
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: want to see me in tights, head to Facebook dot

231
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,640
Speaker 1: com slash Dan o'donald Show. A lot of people commenting

232
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 1: and saying where are the kids? Where? How come the

233
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: kids aren't involved in the family costume anymore? My friends,

234
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,959
Speaker 1: if you can get an eighteen year old and a

235
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: fifteen year old boy to go along with a family

236
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,360
Speaker 1: costume when there may be tights involved. I would love

237
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 1: your suggest questions and an eleven year old girl she

238
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: is going to do a costume with her friends. Come

239
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,880
Speaker 1: hell or high water, check out the costumes and guess

240
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: how many times I got bit on the fingers while

241
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: trying to put the little hat on the puppy. Facebook

242
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: dot com slash Dan o'donald's show Zoran Mom Donnie, I

243
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 1: hate to break it to you, folks, is going to

244
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,280
Speaker 1: be the next mayor of New York City. There just

245
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: is no way that Andrew Cuomo, even if Curtis Sliwa

246
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: had dropped out the Republican running in this race, he

247
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: was not going to be able to make up for

248
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:43,360
Speaker 1: Mom Donnie's Democratic nomination. She's running an independent bid. And

249
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 1: the base of support that Mom Donnie has A lot

250
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 1: has been made out of the fact that Mom Donnie

251
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: has about twenty four percent support among native born New

252
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: Yorkers people who were born in this country. Among foreign

253
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: born New Yorkers, his support is at fifty two percent.

254
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: Do with that information what you like. Now, there is

255
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: a lot of talk about how Mamdani is an Islamist radical, Folks,

256
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:20,120
Speaker 1: This cannot possibly be the case that he's somehow anti Semitic. No,

257
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: ladies and gentlemen, he just got the endorsement of the

258
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,879
Speaker 1: transgender rabbis of New York City. I wish I was

259
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: making this up. Three female far left rabbis and one

260
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: dude with a deep voice and a vaguely foreign accent

261
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:46,360
Speaker 1: cut the most cringe ad for the man you will see. Yeah, Abba, Hi, Rabbi.

262
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 3: Hi, Rabbi Hi.

263
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 5: We're among the thousands of Jewish New Yorkers who've been

264
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 5: out door knocking and phone banking to Alexa Ron Mamdani.

265
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: We're also rabbis.

266
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 6: We know Zoranabophi to make our city affordable and safe

267
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 6: for our families.

268
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: And for our neighbors of all faiths and backgrounds.

269
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 7: As New Yorkers were also just people who live here

270
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 7: who don't want to get priced out of this incredible

271
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 7: city that we call home.

272
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,280
Speaker 1: Well, then you probably shouldn't support his rent freezes. I'm

273
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 1: sorry I had to cut that short, folks. I was

274
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 1: at risk. I was at very serious risk of dying

275
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: from cringe. Could you tell which one was the transgender

276
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 1: female rabbi, the one who is sort of sounding like

277
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 1: Schwartz and Nagar. So we went through Zoron's first major

278
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: campaign promise to freeze the rent and explained how basic

279
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: market principles that inevitably elude far left radicals make this

280
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: a constant failure. He is also promising to make bus

281
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 1: rides free.

282
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 4: We are going to eliminate the fare on every single

283
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:03,400
Speaker 4: bus line and make what are currently the slowest buses

284
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 4: in the nation move around this city with ease.

285
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: Now, how would you be able to do that? What

286
00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 1: is the big thing preventing buses in New York City

287
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,400
Speaker 1: from moving around with ease other vehicles?

288
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 6: Right?

289
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: What he's talking about is incentivizing people to not use

290
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 1: their own vehicles, not use Uber, not use yellow cabs.

291
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: What he's talking about is even further taxation on cars.

292
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,199
Speaker 1: You didn't explicitly say that, So let's just stick with

293
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: his idea to make buses free. Well, as anyone with

294
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: half a brain undoubtedly knows, public transit systems rely on

295
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: fairbox revenue to cover costs like fuel, maintenance, labor. Typically,

296
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: fairbox revenue is anywhere from twenty to fifty percent of

297
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: a given transit systems operating budget. If you eliminate that

298
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 1: massive source of revenue. There is a big funding gap

299
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 1: which is very difficult to fill. There was a pilot

300
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 1: program from twenty twenty to earlier this year in Kansas

301
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 1: City with a zero fare policy. It costs eight to

302
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: ten million dollars yearly and forced cuts to routes and

303
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 1: maintenance when federal COVID nineteen relief funds dried up. There

304
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:36,600
Speaker 1: is one country that has nationwide total free bus rides, Luxembourg.

305
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: Guess how much it spends on free public transportation. It

306
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: actually has to divert resources from things like universal healthcare

307
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: to pay for free public transportation one billion dollars. It

308
00:22:54,640 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: is a massive cost. The City of Milwaukee is currently

309
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: facing a massive transportation system shortfall. Milwaukee County transit system

310
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 1: not City of Milwaukee. Milwaukee County big reason for that.

311
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: In fact, the total reason for the more than ten

312
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 1: million dollar budget shortfall is that there are so many

313
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: people simply not paying the fares to ride the buses

314
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,679
Speaker 1: that we are spending a ton of money without the

315
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 1: revenue that is commensurate with the amount of money that

316
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,680
Speaker 1: is going into actually running the buses. And guess what's

317
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: happening in Milwaukee County To offset those costs which are

318
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 1: staying the same, but the revenue that is going away

319
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,879
Speaker 1: because people aren't paying at the fare box routes are

320
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 1: being cut. Money is going to need to be diverted

321
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 1: from elsewhere in the county budget in order to cover

322
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: up for the lack of funding. One of the other

323
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: issues that's an unintended consequence is the behavioral shift of

324
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: the people on the buses. If you're not paying to

325
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 1: ride the bus, who is likely to just kind of

326
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: hang out on the buses to get out of the cold.

327
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: You will have a lot of vagrants on the buses,

328
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 1: a lot of people with severe mental health issues, a

329
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: lot of drug addicts who are otherwise on the streets,

330
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: and free systems attract way more of these people. Once again,

331
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 1: Kansas City five year pilot program to have a free

332
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 1: bus system, there was a fifteen percent uptick in vandalism

333
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:46,880
Speaker 1: and security incidents on those free buses. Not only will

334
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,399
Speaker 1: you have to cover the cost from elsewhere, you also

335
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: run the risk that there will be more people who

336
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 1: aren't taking the buses. And buses are not particularly common

337
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,840
Speaker 1: modes of transportation in New y Or because, as mom

338
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 1: Donnie said, they are actually very very slow most people

339
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: take the subway, and guess what a big problem with

340
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 1: the subway has become people who are simply jumping over

341
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 1: the turnstile, not paying the fare. And therefore you have

342
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: people attracted to the subway knowing full well they're not

343
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: going to get arrested for fair evasion, who are mentally ill,

344
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 1: who are drug addicts, who are criminals, who aren't actually

345
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: going from point A to point B, but just hanging

346
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 1: out in the subways to panhandle to a cost people

347
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: to cause trouble. It is a major, major problem. Once again,

348
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: just like with rent freezes, it has been tried before

349
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 1: and it is a failure. Some of the major issues

350
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: with Zoran mam Donnie and his radical Islamism, plus more

351
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: of his policies doomed to failure. Next on The Dan

352
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: O'Donnell Show Conservative Thought, not just talk. It is the

353
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 1: Dan o'donald Show. Zorn Mamdani is sort of a totem.

354
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,919
Speaker 1: He is an emblem of what the modern radicalized left is.

355
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 1: It's all identity politics wrapped in out and out communism

356
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: that he attempts to make palatable by making grandiose promises

357
00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,159
Speaker 1: about all of the things that are going to be

358
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 1: free without ever actually explaining how anything will work. He's

359
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:41,440
Speaker 1: also an inveterate liar. Take this, for example, responding to

360
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo, the former governor and his primary opponent in

361
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,919
Speaker 1: the election, saying, can you imagine if Mom Donni was

362
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,479
Speaker 1: mayor on nine to eleven Sid Rosenberg, who's in New

363
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 1: York City talk show host, Oh, he'd probably be celebrating.

364
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: And Cuomo didn't immediately condemn Rosenberg's obvious Islamophobia. He wasn't

365
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 1: talking about all Muslims. He was talking about one very

366
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,399
Speaker 1: anti American Muslim and yes, I will be able to

367
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: prove that well. Zoran was very offended and he said,

368
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: you know what, nine to eleven caused his aunt, who

369
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 1: was living in New York City to be too scared

370
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: to wear her hijab on the Site's.

371
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 8: Going to use this moment to speak to the Muslims.

372
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 1: Of New York City. Hm, he got choked up here.

373
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:43,359
Speaker 8: I want to speak to the memory of my aunt

374
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 8: who stopped taking the subway after September eleventh because she

375
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 8: did not feel safe in her hi jab.

376
00:27:53,760 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 1: Okay, basic fact checking would reveal that Zoran Mamdani has

377
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,479
Speaker 1: exactly one aunt it's his mother's sister. From two thousand

378
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 1: to two thousand and three, according to her own LinkedIn page,

379
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,440
Speaker 1: she was not in New York City and has never

380
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: apparently lived in New York City, but she was working

381
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 1: in Tanzania. Be pretty pretty impossible for her to make

382
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: that long commute from Tanzania to the New York City

383
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,479
Speaker 1: subway system. And oh, by the way, there is no

384
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 1: evidence that she has ever worn a huge job. Someone

385
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: who you should know not Zoran Mamdanni's aunt, but rather

386
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: his father, Mahmoud Mamdani, who is a university professor, harbors

387
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: some of the most anti American beliefs that I have

388
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:52,800
Speaker 1: ever heard. In a recently unearthed rant, he goes on

389
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: a truly disgusting screed about how the United States is

390
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 1: the root of all the world's evil, that Adolf Hitler

391
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: actually learned everything he needed to know about genocide from

392
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln.

393
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 9: America is the genesis of what we call settler colonialism,

394
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 9: and the American model was exported all around the world.

395
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 9: Abraham Lincoln generalized the solution of reservations. They herded American

396
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 9: Indians into separate territories for the Nazis, for the Nazis.

397
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 9: This was the inspiration. Hitler realized two things. One that

398
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 9: genocide was doable. It is possible to do genocide. That's

399
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 9: what Hitler realized. Second thing Hitler realized is that you

400
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 9: don't have to have a common citizenship. You can differentiate

401
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 9: between people. The Nuremberg laws were patterned after American laws. Anyway,

402
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 9: the US put Indians in reservations. The US invented the model.

403
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: I don't think I have heard anything quite so erroneous

404
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 1: or hateful in the past month. Now, you are, of

405
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,800
Speaker 1: course not guilty of the sins of your father, but

406
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: there's a pretty straight line that you can draw from

407
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 1: Mahmoud Mamdani's anti americanism to the radical left wing, destructive

408
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,440
Speaker 1: beliefs of his son. We have spent the hour debunking

409
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 1: Zoran Mamdani's primary promises. You might be asking, well, Dan,

410
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: who cares about New York City? Folks? It is only

411
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: a hop, skip and a jump away from a socialist

412
00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 1: mayor of say Milwaukee, And wouldn't you know it, We're

413
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 1: the only city who has had not one, not two,

414
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 1: but three of them. This is what modern democrats believe.

415
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,720
Speaker 1: In fact, this is what your kid is probably going

416
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: to come home from college at Thanksgiving break, spouting that

417
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: rent should be stabilized, that buses should be free, and

418
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 1: so too should be childcare.

419
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 4: Going to create universal childcare at no cost to parents

420
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 4: so New Yorkers can raise their family in the city

421
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 4: they love.

422
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 1: All right, Quebec has had a universal childcare program since

423
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety seven. You know what the cost is for

424
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: about two hundred and seventy thousand children, three billion dollars

425
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: every single year. That's about eleven thousand dollars per child. Now,

426
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: let's do a real quick comparison. Is Quebec a larger

427
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: or smaller city than New York? Much smaller. If you

428
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: were to do universal childcare for the entire country, it

429
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: would be about two hundred to four hundred billion dollars

430
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: every single year, about five to ten percent of all

431
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: federal discretionary spending. Not only does it cost a ton

432
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: of money and necessarily there needs to be a diversion

433
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: of resources away from other critical city functions, but demand

434
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 1: surges for a free product. In Quebec, there was a

435
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: fifty percent increase in demand for universal care. Was there

436
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 1: a commensurate increase in the supply of daycare providers. No

437
00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: supply grew only twenty percent that caused wait lists just

438
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 1: to get into a daycare center between twelve and eighteen months.

439
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: In heavily populated areas of the city. The kid will

440
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 1: be going to kindergarten before he's able to get into daycare.

441
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: A study in the US two years ago found forty

442
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: percent of states already face what are known as childcare deserts,

443
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 1: fewer than one daycare slot per three children. Universal programs

444
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: exacerbate this without a similar massive investment in facilities and staff,

445
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: and guess what, the quality of care for your children

446
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 1: also necessarily declines. Low reimbursement rates for providers in subsidized systems,

447
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: oftentimes eight to twelve dollars per hour. That's not salary,

448
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: that's the subsidization of those salaries from government, leads to

449
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: massive turnover and underqualified staff applying for these positions. Because

450
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:09,440
Speaker 1: there is necessarily going to be a massive demand and

451
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: massive amounts of money spent, there are going to be

452
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 1: more kids per daycare worker. Crowded daycare centers or four

453
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 1: K three K classrooms combined with underpaid, underqualified workers is

454
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: a recipe for a disaster coming up, folks, in just

455
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:35,919
Speaker 1: five minutes. I don't want to overpromise an under deliver here,

456
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 1: but I dare say today's Unhinged Liberal of the Day,

457
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: and it's just a rando woman screaming about stuff. She

458
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:50,799
Speaker 1: is a very strong contender for Unhinged Liberal of the Year.

459
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,359
Speaker 1: Trust me, you are not going to want to miss this.

460
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,319
Speaker 1: The Unhinged Liberal of the Day Coming up next, hip

461
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: hop remix of Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfeld, which served

462
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: as the theme song to the Exorcist. For my money,

463
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 1: the scariest film that has ever been released. It might

464
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: have something to do with the fact that I watched

465
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 1: it when I was like ten and scared the holy

466
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,280
Speaker 1: heck out of me. As my brother said, I think

467
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: he stayed up all night praying he watched it as

468
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: a sleepover. The nineties were a wild time, man. I

469
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:31,240
Speaker 1: mean when we say we were basically feeral unsupervised children,

470
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 1: we meant it. I think I snuck in to see

471
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,759
Speaker 1: pulp fiction when I was about twelve years old the

472
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: Exorcists at like ten, and I'm starting to think there

473
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 1: might have been some sort of impact on my personality.

474
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: Later on, Ladies and gentlemen, it is time now to

475
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,840
Speaker 1: name the unhinged liberal of the day, a woman whose

476
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: performance is so strong she just may be our twenty

477
00:35:56,160 --> 00:36:11,320
Speaker 1: twenty five unhinged Liberal of the year. Germany Tough is

478
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: dangerous because he's evil.

479
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 9: America is.

480
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,440
Speaker 1: Today's unhinged Liberal of the day is just a random

481
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 1: She is an incredibly profane woman who appears to be

482
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: missing about thirty percent of her teeth, who has become

483
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 1: convinced that ICE Immigration and Customs Enforcement has a cash

484
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: of I'm not kidding warheads and are going to deploy

485
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: said arsenal on American citizens. Ladies and gentlemen, behold the

486
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: majesty of this woman's rant.

487
00:36:56,200 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 5: Y'allup, if you don't know, by fucking now, did you

488
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 5: know ICE has warheads?

489
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 1: Did you know this? Did you know?

490
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 5: Ice has fucking warheads? And you know the only place

491
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 5: that ICE can use these is.

492
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 10: On American soil? Did you fucking know that?

493
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 1: Didn't you fucking know that?

494
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 7: So that means that story, ass mother, you're in the

495
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 7: Opal office plans that uses goddamn warheads on.

496
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 10: American sol, on American citizens.

497
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 11: Y'all need to wake this up to this now, God,

498
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 11: I've had it. If you don't, don't see what the

499
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:33,240
Speaker 11: fucking problem in is this? You add a goddamn disease.

500
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 10: Of this country and may God have mercy on your

501
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 10: soul when all this show is over. So what the

502
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 10: heck got said?

503
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: I don't even have anything to add that. That is

504
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: Chef's kiss perfection. When we started the Unhinged Liberal of

505
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: the Day all those years ago, I envisioned a woman

506
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 1: like this. This is like, this is like the Michael

507
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: Jordans of unhinged liberals. This is like Michael Phelps. This

508
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 1: is this is a dominance that we just have have

509
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 1: not seen before in unhinged liberalism. Yes, that woman may

510
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 1: well be your Unhinged Liberal of the Year. We check

516
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:50,400
Speaker 1: woman screaming about ICE's war heads. We pretty much have

00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,120
Speaker 1: ninety four because that was one of the finds of

525
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:24,880
Speaker 1: the entire year. The woman has maybe thirty five percent

526
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: of her teeth. She has got that deep vacant stare

527
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:35,120
Speaker 1: that can only come from the truly brain dead, illiterate left,

528
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: and she is utterly convinced that Ice has a stockpile

529
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: of warheads that it is going to use on Americas,

530
00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 1: not illegal aliens in America. Mind you, American citizens, Behold

531
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 1: the majesty of what I believe will be our unhinged

532
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:58,319
Speaker 1: liberal of the year.

533
00:39:58,360 --> 00:39:59,439
Speaker 10: Y'all need to wait up.

534
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 5: If you don't know, by fucking now, did you know

535
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 5: Ice has warheads?

536
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: Did you know this?

537
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,680
Speaker 5: Did you know Ice has fucking warheads? And you know

538
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 5: the only place that Ice can use these is on

539
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 5: American soil? Did you fucking know that?

540
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 1: Did you fucking know that?

541
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 7: So that means that story as mother, you're in the

542
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 7: Opal office plans he uses goddamn warheads on American son

543
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 7: on American citizens.

544
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 11: Y'all need to wake this up to this now, God,

545
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 11: I've had it. If you don't don't see what the

546
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 11: fucking problem in is this.

547
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 10: You have a goddamn fucking disease of this fucking country.

548
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 10: And may God have mercy on your soul when all

549
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 10: this show is over. So what the fuck got said?

558
00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,879
Speaker 1: Now for the Daily Trump Day. We're gonna win so.

559
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,240
Speaker 4: Much you may even get tired of winning.

560
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 1: Trump just keeps winning. It is a win for the administration.

561
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 12: It's also a big win for the United States.

562
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 1: We have to keep winning. We have to win more.

563
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:31,240
Speaker 1: We're gonna win. Moore, the federal government shutdown is now

564
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 1: in its twenty seventh day, with no signs of ending

565
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:41,840
Speaker 1: anytime soon. A reminder that every single Republican in Congress,

566
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: both the United States Senate and House, has voted for

567
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: a clean continuing resolution which adds no new policy and

568
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:54,760
Speaker 1: simply keeps the government open and funded at current levels.

569
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: Democrats have steadfastly refused to vote for it. They are

570
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: filled bustering the measure, and twelve different attempts at cloture

571
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: or ending the Democrat filibuster have fallen short because Democrats

572
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 1: simply will not cross the political aisle and vote with

573
00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: a couple of their colleagues, including Pennsylvania's John Fetterman, to

574
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 1: end the filibuster, and every single Republican, in other words,

575
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: they want to keep the government shut down. House Speaker

576
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 1: Mike Johnson on this brazen political game.

577
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 13: They've made an evaluation that they have to appease the

578
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 13: Marxist space, that they're so concerned that they'll lose their

579
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 13: jobs if they don't appease the far left in their party.

580
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 13: And they sat in a back room and they made

581
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 13: the calculation that they would rather shut the government down

582
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,560
Speaker 13: and impose all this pain on the American people because

583
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 13: they believe the Marxists the far left in the base

584
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 13: are more active than hard work in Americans people who

585
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 13: go vote, and so they made the calculation that it's

586
00:42:55,320 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 13: worth it to them every day gets better for us.

587
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,280
Speaker 13: Will use the pain as leverage for what to prove

588
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 13: to the far left base that they won't give in,

589
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 13: that they'll fight Trump and fight their Republicans. What are

590
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,839
Speaker 13: they fighting. It's a queen cr It's the same level

591
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,880
Speaker 13: of funding that they have voted for as recently as

592
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 13: earlier this year. They are Biden level policies in spending.

593
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 13: This is not some Republican wish list. We don't have

594
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 13: any of our priorities in this at all. It's the

595
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 13: Democrat's own product. But they have decided to flip the

596
00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:28,160
Speaker 13: script this time because they were getting too much heat

597
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 13: from the far left.

598
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,319
Speaker 1: And in fact, Minnesota's Governor Tim Walls gave up the

599
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 1: game again when he said We're not going to give

600
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: in and allow a fascist, dictatorial president to run rough

601
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 1: shot over us. We'll get into that coming up in

602
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: a little bit on the Sunday shows. Specifically, Meet the Press.

603
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant absolutely humiliated Kristin Welker, who tried

604
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:03,160
Speaker 1: to pin the blame on President Trump for not negotiating

605
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 1: with Democrats in the Senate. That'sn't setter straight real quick.

606
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 14: When will President Trump meet with Democrats to try to

607
00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 14: bring this shutdown to a close and get federal workers

608
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 14: their paychecks back again, mister Secretary.

609
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:23,240
Speaker 15: Well, Christy, I'm going to have to reject the premise

610
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 15: of your question. Why did President Trump have to meet

611
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 15: with Democrats? Democrats just need to go into the Senate

612
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,919
Speaker 15: and vote to in the shutdown.

613
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 14: Trump has said in the passage up to the president, No, no,

614
00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:39,799
Speaker 14: and no. He said that in the past. He said,

615
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 14: you have to be a leader. The president has to lead.

616
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 14: You have to get people into a room. You have

617
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 14: to get a deal. When's he going to do that?

618
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 15: Well, he is leading, and there's no deal to do

619
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 15: with Chuck Schumer. Chuck Schumer is trading off his poles.

620
00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,680
Speaker 15: What's different than when he passed the clean cr and

621
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 15: this ring it's his polls. You know, he's where the

622
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:06,239
Speaker 15: whole country's being held captive to AOC's polls. Well, let's

623
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 15: look at the numbers. It's fifty two to three fifty

624
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 15: two Republicans have voted. I believe it's eleven times to

625
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 15: reopen the government. Three Democrats have and right here, right now,

626
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 15: I would urge moderate Democratic senators to come across the

627
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 15: aisle reopening the government because I'll tell you we're starting

628
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 15: to eat in the muscle here. This is starting to

629
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:32,239
Speaker 15: affect travel, is starting to affect the economy, and you know,

630
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 15: this is keixotic. I don't know what the purpose is.

631
00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 15: I'm not sure they do.

632
00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,480
Speaker 1: I don't think they do either. Quite frankly, air traffic

633
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 1: controllers tomorrow will start working without pay. On Saturday, snap

634
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 1: benefits or food assistance expires for forty two million Americans.

635
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: We will get into that coming up in just a

636
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:56,439
Speaker 1: little bit. That is your daily Trump Day. To look

637
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 1: at what's been going on in Washington today. How is

638
00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:06,439
Speaker 1: any of this impacting the markets? Not really at all.

639
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: To discuss, we bring in Dave Spanno to help you

640
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:15,800
Speaker 1: know the difference between financial advisors. And since this shutdown started, Dave,

641
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 1: the markets have just shrugged it off as sort of business,

642
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,400
Speaker 1: albeit dysfunctional business, but business as usual in Washington.

643
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,280
Speaker 16: And it really has and you can see the market

644
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,840
Speaker 16: continues to go up over three hundred and thirty points today.

645
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 16: But let's stay with Sunday Morning. You know, after Treasury

646
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:38,160
Speaker 16: Secretary Scott percent was on NBC, he went over to

647
00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:42,200
Speaker 16: ABC and did the did the show on Sunday Morning

648
00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,880
Speaker 16: and said that he's actually a soybean farmer. And I

649
00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 16: had to ask, you, can you imagine Treasury Secretary's got

650
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,680
Speaker 16: percent on the back of an old Alice Chalmers tractor.

651
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 16: You know what he does? He owns the land, as

652
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 16: you know, and the farmer farm the land. But yeah,

653
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,200
Speaker 16: that's exactly right. And so what we're seeing right now

654
00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,080
Speaker 16: is the market continues to go on. And one of

655
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 16: those reasons is that we are in the middle of

656
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,040
Speaker 16: earning's week and that is really where the report cards

657
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 16: come out, Dan, And this week alone we're going to

658
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 16: see Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and Apple, all of them

659
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 16: have their reports coming out this week, all expected to

660
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,960
Speaker 16: do pretty well. And by the way, those Meg seven

661
00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 16: stocks represent about twenty four percent of the S and

662
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 16: P five hundred, so very important not only for the math,

663
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 16: but also for the market sentiment as well.

664
00:47:33,320 --> 00:47:37,399
Speaker 1: Dan, Yeah, it absolutely is. And basically a rate cut

665
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 1: from the Federal Reserve is all but baked in. Right,

666
00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:44,520
Speaker 1: we're getting another twenty five basis point or point two

667
00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 1: five percent cut to the key FED funds.

668
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:51,120
Speaker 16: Right, we really are, and then marketing has really marked

669
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 16: that in already. So the Fed is, you know, operating

670
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 16: without all of the information that they would like, but

671
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 16: that information is out there. The betting nods are nearly

672
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,439
Speaker 16: one hundred percent that we're going to see that Fed

673
00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:05,800
Speaker 16: rate hike, and then we'll have to see what happens

674
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,120
Speaker 16: as we go to the end of the year towards

675
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 16: December if there is another one. The market likes that news.

676
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,239
Speaker 16: In fact, the tenure Treasury was under four percent, so

677
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:20,280
Speaker 16: that has major ramifications for your listeners. For example, mortgage

678
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,720
Speaker 16: rates are starting to come back down if the housing

679
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,040
Speaker 16: market starts to kick in again. Because of all of this,

680
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,840
Speaker 16: this is really good news. So here we have earnings

681
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 16: week doing really well, we have the Federal Reserve likely

682
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 16: to lower rates. We have the Trump she meeting, right,

683
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 16: and perhaps we're going to get some more clarity on

684
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 16: our trade policy next week oral arguments and for the

685
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,640
Speaker 16: Supreme Court start talking about the Trump tariffs. And of

686
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 16: course there's elections in New Jersey, in Virginia, lots for

687
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 16: Dan o'donald to talk about. But more importantly, the market

688
00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:53,280
Speaker 16: really likes this information.

689
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:58,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it certainly does. Especially the apparent thawing of trade

690
00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 1: relations between Trump and China and earnings for the Magnificent

691
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: Seven just continue to amaze. Keep tabs on all of it,

692
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:11,920
Speaker 1: and more importantly, understand what that means for your financial future. Folks.

693
00:49:12,520 --> 00:49:15,640
Speaker 1: I'm a smart guy. Okay, I say that with no

694
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:19,280
Speaker 1: false modesty. But part of being smart is a man's

695
00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: got to know his limitations. And while I understand politics,

696
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 1: I don't always understand finance, especially when it comes to taxes,

697
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 1: how stuff is going to That's why I work with

Speaker 1: o'donald Show returns in just three minutes. Conservative thought, not

713
00:50:27,239 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: just talk. It is the Dan o'donald Show, a tour

714
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 1: deforce of truth. The truth is that Democrats could stop

715
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 1: this shutdown today. In fact, all it would take is

716
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 1: five of them to join every single Republican in the

717
00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 1: Senate in voting to end the shutdown, ending the Democrat philibuster.

718
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,759
Speaker 1: This is the very first filibuster in American history of

719
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:59,359
Speaker 1: a clean continuing resolution. I think there continues to be

720
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:03,840
Speaker 1: a whole lot of intentional obfiscation about who is to

721
00:51:03,880 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 1: blame here. I just saw a tweet from Mazie Herono,

722
00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 1: the Senator from Hawaii. Right, Maze's from Hawaii, Tammy Duckworth

723
00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:16,319
Speaker 1: is from Illinois. Yes, for some reason, I always get

724
00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 1: those two confused. I'm not entirely sure why, but Mazie

725
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 1: Herono from Hawaii said Republicans control the White House the

726
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 1: House and the Senate. They're responsible for this, and this

727
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 1: is the talking point. And clearly Mazee Herono knows what

728
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,800
Speaker 1: a filibuster is. She's counting on the fact that you don't.

729
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:41,000
Speaker 1: This is how Democrats operate, and just trust that the

730
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,080
Speaker 1: national media in particular will amplify their talking points. So

731
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: you heard it with that Kristen Welker Scott Bessant exchange. Well,

732
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 1: it's Trump's responsibility to talk to the Democrat leaders in

733
00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 1: the Senate and negotiate with them best and shut her down, immedia,

734
00:51:56,920 --> 00:52:02,760
Speaker 1: there's nothing to negotiate. Open up the government, stop holding

735
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 1: things like air traffic controllers salaries and snap benefits hostage

736
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:11,720
Speaker 1: because you want healthcare for a million and a half

737
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 1: illegal aliens, and we'll be just fine. Never before in

738
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 1: American history has the government shut down or a party

739
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 1: filibustered a clean continuing resolution in order to get anything

740
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: passed in the Senate, with the exception of very specific

741
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:36,400
Speaker 1: things like for example, budget reconciliation, which only requires a

742
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: simple majority, you need to have sixty votes to invoke

743
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: what's known as cloature to stop a filibuster. Long ago,

744
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: we did away in the Senate with the idea that

745
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,200
Speaker 1: you had to actually filibuster. The classic example is mister

746
00:52:54,280 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 1: Smith goes to Washington, the noble senator, standing for hours

747
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:05,280
Speaker 1: until he can speak no longer in collapses. We don't

748
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:09,759
Speaker 1: have that. You simply start a filibuster, you don't need

749
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:16,400
Speaker 1: to continue talking, and the filibuster continues until sixty votes

750
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:23,240
Speaker 1: means cloture. Sixty senators therefore, is a majority that's needed

751
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,959
Speaker 1: to pass anything, including a continuing resolution. There is never

752
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:32,760
Speaker 1: been by either party a filibuster of a clean continuing resolution.

753
00:53:32,880 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 1: What that means is a resolution that simply funds government

754
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 1: at current levels, and in fact, we have been operating

755
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: on continuing resolutions all year long. Democrats voted for one

756
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: back in March because it just locked into place Biden

757
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:53,640
Speaker 1: era spending. There are no Republican policy items, there is

758
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 1: no new Republican spending, there are no Republican cuts. It

759
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:03,360
Speaker 1: is the exact sense funding measure that every Democrat voted

760
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:08,400
Speaker 1: for six months ago. Now, of course it's completely unpalatable

761
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 1: because why My guess is that Democrats heard all summer

762
00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:19,560
Speaker 1: long from their constituents that they weren't fighting hard enough

763
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 1: against Trump, that Trump is a dangerous Nazi fascist, and

764
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: he needs to be stopped. And if Democrats vote to

765
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,880
Speaker 1: end the government shut down, if all of a sudden

766
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: they appear to cave on this, they'll look even weaker.

767
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,439
Speaker 1: Tim Wall's not the brightest bulb in the Halloween light

768
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 1: display over the weekend, said, look, we can't even though

769
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,439
Speaker 1: snap benefits, food assistants benefits are going to run out

770
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 1: for millions of Minnesotans, we can't allow this Senate to

771
00:54:57,120 --> 00:55:00,480
Speaker 1: give more power to an authoritarian like true. I know

772
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 1: Democrats are ready to go. I know they're ready to

773
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:04,480
Speaker 1: come back and do this. They're ready to come back

774
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 1: and protect things that had passed the legislature.

775
00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 12: They are not willing to come back and let an

776
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:12,040
Speaker 12: authoritarian president do whatever he wants.

777
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 1: Sort of gives it all up, doesn't it. When House

778
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:20,000
Speaker 1: Speaker Mike Johnson is saying the entire country is behold

779
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:25,239
Speaker 1: into AOC's polling numbers, he means the fear is that

780
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:29,319
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer is going to be primaried by AOC. I

781
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: happen to think he will, not that she's going to

782
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 1: be running for president in twenty twenty eight, and that

783
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 1: he needs to look like he's fighting and not rolling

784
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:42,240
Speaker 1: over for Donald Trump. I will refer back once again

785
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:45,839
Speaker 1: to one of the most insane articles I've ever read.

786
00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 1: It was from Axios about Midsummer, and I must have

787
00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 1: used that thing for weeks on end, because it was

788
00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:54,840
Speaker 1: Democrats going back home for the Fourth of July holiday

789
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 1: for summer break, and they would hold town hall meetings

790
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:02,799
Speaker 1: with their constituents, and these crazies were telling them, you

791
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 1: need to be willing to get shot while protesting ice

792
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:11,399
Speaker 1: facilities in your district. That's how much you need to fight.

793
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 1: You need to be willing to storm an ice facility

794
00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 1: and free all the illegal immigrants, you Democrat congressman. That's

795
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: what they're hearing from their constituents. They need to fight

796
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 1: against Trump because they have convinced these psychopaths that Trump

797
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:33,799
Speaker 1: really is a neo hitler and that he really will

798
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:38,239
Speaker 1: do away with all elections. He really will declare himself

799
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:43,360
Speaker 1: all presidente for life. And oh, by the way, that big,

800
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:47,000
Speaker 1: beautiful ballroom is evidence of it, because why would he

801
00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,600
Speaker 1: build a ballroom if he was planning to leave office

802
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty nine. This is truly the unhinged base

803
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 1: that they have to kowtow to. Well, Unfortunately for Democrats,

804
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: a big portion of their base receives SNAP food assistance.

805
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:14,920
Speaker 1: Forty two million Americans are currently on EBT or SNAP

806
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 1: food assistance, forty two million of them. No SNAP benefits

807
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:29,200
Speaker 1: will be issued starting November first. Americans who rely on

808
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 1: the program for groceries get an average of about one

809
00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,600
Speaker 1: hundred eighty seven dollars per month to purchase groceries. Now,

810
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 1: SNAP is one hundred percent federally funded. The contingency funds,

811
00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 1: which are about five to six billion dollars, will not

812
00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:53,400
Speaker 1: actually cover November's payments of eight point one billion dollars.

813
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: Because of that, President Trump has said, no, we are

814
00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 1: not going to use contingency funding for a portion of November,

815
00:58:03,120 --> 00:58:06,240
Speaker 1: because we need to have this in case of an

816
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,600
Speaker 1: actual emergency. In case there's some catastrophic failure of the

817
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: system or some emergency or something, we could fund SNAP

818
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,360
Speaker 1: payments with the contingency funds we have now for about

819
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 1: three weeks eight point one billion dollars just for November. Now,

820
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 1: as a result of this, Wisconsin lawmakers have said, no,

821
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 1: we're not going to tap into state funds, which would

822
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:37,440
Speaker 1: amount to about one hundred and fifteen million dollars to

823
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:41,920
Speaker 1: pay for SNAP benefits for Wisconsin nights. Wisconsin Senate President

824
00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 1: Mary Felskowski, Republican, on upfront with Matt Smith on Sunday, Smith, ast,

825
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 1: are you going to propose that we use state dollars

826
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:54,720
Speaker 1: to fund SNAP if the federal government is still shut

827
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:55,680
Speaker 1: down by saturd One.

828
00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 6: Hundred fourteen million is a lot of money, and my

829
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 6: heart goes out to people. But this is a federal issue,

830
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 6: and I don't see the state having the resources to

831
00:59:04,600 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 6: do that. I just wish that the Democrats would sign

832
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 6: this continuing resolution and vote for it and let's move on.

833
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,520
Speaker 6: They shouldn't be playing games like this. You don't hold

834
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 6: people hostage over these kind of issues. So no, I

835
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:21,440
Speaker 6: don't see a stepping in.

836
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:27,080
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. Democrats could get SNAP fully funded

837
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 1: this evening all they need to do. Heck, you don't

838
00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 1: even need Chuck Schumer to do it. Five Democrats in

839
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: the US Senate go to the Senate Majority Leader John

840
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: Thune and say we're going to vote for you will

841
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 1: open the government. They get some sort of concession on

842
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 1: negotiations on Obama Care subsidies, or maybe we talk about

843
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,919
Speaker 1: expanding healthcare whatever it is. But that comes later. There

844
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 1: is no room for negotiating on a bill where there

845
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:06,280
Speaker 1: is no policy to negotiate. What would Republicans give up

846
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 1: here in exchange for giving Democrats every single thing they want.

847
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: This is why there's this desperate push to blame Republicans,

848
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:20,240
Speaker 1: and the narrative is, well, Republicans control everything in Washington,

849
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,480
Speaker 1: and why the very people who are going to be

850
01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:27,440
Speaker 1: out of snap benefits come Saturday are being kept in

851
01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:31,520
Speaker 1: the dark about what's really going on. Let's talk a

852
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 1: little bit deeper about food assistance benefits and how Democrat

853
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:42,320
Speaker 1: policies keep people dependent on them. You're not going to

854
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: want to miss this, and it is coming up next

855
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 1: here on the Dan O'Donnell Show. Democrats know exactly what

856
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: they're doing on the shutdown. They're blaming Republicans, pretending that

857
01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:56,240
Speaker 1: because Republicans have control of the White House, House and

858
01:00:56,520 --> 01:01:02,120
Speaker 1: Senate that that negates the filibuster. Really, what this is about, folks,

859
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 1: is Democrats want Republicans to do away with the filibuster.

860
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 1: Do you remember years ago when Harry Reid invoked what

861
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 1: was known as the nuclear option to get rid of

862
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:20,960
Speaker 1: the filibuster on certain judicial nominees because he claimed that

863
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:26,480
Speaker 1: Republicans were just being intransigent and inflexible on President Obama's nominees,

864
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:30,040
Speaker 1: and he just ended the filibuster with a simple fifty

865
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 1: one vote majority. Cocaine Mitch, Mitch McConnell, then the leader

866
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 1: of Republicans in the Senate, got up on the floor

867
01:01:38,920 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 1: and said, our friends on the Democratic side may well

868
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:46,600
Speaker 1: live to regret this, and that day may come a

869
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 1: lot sooner than they think. It sure did because Republicans

870
01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 1: simply using the Harry Reid president. A few years later,

871
01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: when President Trump was trying to fill the seat vacated

872
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: by the late antonin Scalia, you might remember that the

873
01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:09,920
Speaker 1: Republicans in the Senate actually blocked President Obama from filling

874
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:14,040
Speaker 1: that seat. He had nominated Merrick Garland, no less a

875
01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 1: figure than Vice President Joe Biden earlier in his career

876
01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety two, actually said, if there is a

877
01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: Supreme Court vacancy this year, an election year, it should

878
01:02:26,840 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: not be filled by then President George H. W. Bush. Instead,

879
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 1: the American people should decide. So Cocaine Mitch, being the

880
01:02:35,840 --> 01:02:39,520
Speaker 1: cold blooded operator that he was, it truly does not

881
01:02:39,560 --> 01:02:42,720
Speaker 1: get enough credit for it. Said Okay, Well, We're going

882
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 1: to take the vice president's president very seriously, and we're

883
01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:50,840
Speaker 1: going to let the American people decide. Lo and behold.

884
01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:57,240
Speaker 1: Trump won the twenty sixteen presidential election. In early twenty seventeen,

885
01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:02,760
Speaker 1: for the first time in American history, Democrats filibustered a

886
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 1: Supreme Court nomination that of the decidedly non controversial Neil Gorsich.

887
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 1: Gorsich has been a reliable conservative vote, but there's nothing

888
01:03:14,920 --> 01:03:19,320
Speaker 1: out of the ordinary in terms of his judicial philosophy

889
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:23,440
Speaker 1: or past opinions. Democrats simply didn't want President Trump to

890
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 1: be able to fill that seat. Using the Harry Reid precedent, Cocaine,

891
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:35,800
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell did away with all judicial filibusters, including the

892
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:41,040
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. So now to nominate a cabinet secretary or

893
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:44,320
Speaker 1: a federal judge, and to get it approved by the Senate,

894
01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,880
Speaker 1: all you need is fifty votes plus one or a

895
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:53,800
Speaker 1: simple majority. Thank you very much, Harry Reid. Now Democrats

896
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 1: under Chuck Schumer, they learned their lessons from Harry Reid's mistake.

897
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:02,200
Speaker 1: They want Republicans to evoke the nuclear option and do

898
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:07,919
Speaker 1: away with the filibuster altogether, knowing full well that eventually,

899
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:11,040
Speaker 1: I pray to god it doesn't happen, but eventually, we

900
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:15,080
Speaker 1: are almost certain to have another Democrat president when that

901
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:20,360
Speaker 1: day comes. And Democrats also control the majority in the

902
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:24,000
Speaker 1: House and Senate, they can do whatever they want and

903
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 1: Republicans in the minority would have absolutely no recourse. They

904
01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to stop it. That's the dynamic at

905
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:37,240
Speaker 1: play here. It is a game of brinksmanship that Democrats

906
01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 1: are playing, and they believe that they have leverage, that

907
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,720
Speaker 1: every day that goes by is better for them. That's

908
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,600
Speaker 1: not me talking. That is a direct quote from Chuck Schumer.

909
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:51,160
Speaker 1: The idea is that Democrats believe they have leverage. That's

910
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:55,560
Speaker 1: not me talking. That is the number two Democrat in

911
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,920
Speaker 1: the United States House of Representatives, Catherine Clark.

912
01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:03,640
Speaker 17: I mean, shutdowns are terrible, and of course there will be,

913
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 17: you know, families that are going to suffer. We take

914
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:11,920
Speaker 17: that responsibility very seriously. But it is one of the

915
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,440
Speaker 17: few leverage times we have.

916
01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:20,000
Speaker 1: One of the few leverage times we have. Yeah, it's terrible.

917
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:27,880
Speaker 1: Forty one point seven million Americans, including something like doing

918
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: quick math in my head, seventeen million children are going

919
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:37,320
Speaker 1: to lose snap benefits on Saturday. That's terrible. That's horrible.

920
01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 1: Air traffic controllers are going to go without their salary.

921
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:44,800
Speaker 1: They're going to go without a paycheck tomorrow. That's terrible.

922
01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:49,920
Speaker 1: But this gives us leverage. Forty one point seven million

923
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: Americans currently get food assistance. That is twelve point three

924
01:05:54,960 --> 01:06:01,400
Speaker 1: five percent of the entire United States population. That seems

925
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:06,120
Speaker 1: insanely high to me. In twenty twenty four, roughly ten

926
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: point six percent of the American populace lived below the

927
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 1: poverty line. There are thirty five point nine million Americans

928
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 1: who are living in poverty, and the poverty line has

929
01:06:19,000 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 1: gone up considerably in recent years. But there are currently

930
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:29,320
Speaker 1: forty one point seven million people on SNAP. Why is

931
01:06:29,360 --> 01:06:33,840
Speaker 1: this that there's so many people who are living above

932
01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:37,800
Speaker 1: the poverty line who are depending on the federal government

933
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:45,120
Speaker 1: for food assistance. Well, the reality is Democrat policies actually

934
01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:51,200
Speaker 1: drive people to need SNAP benefits, and Democrats constantly want

935
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:56,240
Speaker 1: to expand social safety net programs, in my humble opinion,

936
01:06:56,360 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 1: to get these people dependent on government. And when there

937
01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:05,040
Speaker 1: are these high leverage moments, as Catherine Clark put it,

938
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:09,280
Speaker 1: that they can be used as pawns to try to

939
01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:17,360
Speaker 1: get Republicans to bend to their will. USDA data shows

940
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:23,680
Speaker 1: that eligibility for SNAP benefits increased by about one point

941
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:27,840
Speaker 1: five million people from two thousand and eight to twenty twenty.

942
01:07:29,120 --> 01:07:33,160
Speaker 1: Did one point five million people suddenly fall below the

943
01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:40,040
Speaker 1: poverty line? No, there have been outreach programs designed to

944
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:44,800
Speaker 1: get more people in heavily liberal population bases like New

945
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:50,000
Speaker 1: York on food stamps. In fact, over the past five years,

946
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:53,080
Speaker 1: New York has actually had a campaign, Hey do you

947
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:55,520
Speaker 1: know you might be eligible for food stamps? Do you

948
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:58,920
Speaker 1: know you could get on food stamps? That increased enrollment

949
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 1: by ten per cent, or about two hundred thousand people.

950
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 1: The poverty rate in New York City and in this

951
01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:11,120
Speaker 1: country in that time period has been almost exactly the same.

952
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:17,280
Speaker 1: Not only that, when you have liberal policies like a

953
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: rise in the minimum wage, you also paradoxically get more

954
01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:26,920
Speaker 1: people on SNAP benefits Because low wage jobs have a

955
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 1: tendency to disappear, income is boosted, but not enough to

956
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 1: get out of eligibility for SNAP. Partial wage gains keep

957
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:45,280
Speaker 1: workers on social programs. An Urban Institute study in twenty

958
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:49,919
Speaker 1: twenty three found a one dollar increase in the minimum

959
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 1: wage raised SNAP participation by two to three percent. In

960
01:08:56,040 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 1: low wage areas, workers stayed just under eligibility cutoffs, not

961
01:09:01,360 --> 01:09:06,680
Speaker 1: only that they still were not making enough to subsist.

962
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 1: Why because minimum wage jobs would still pay the exact

963
01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:16,400
Speaker 1: minimum wage, but jobs that would pay more than the

964
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: minimum wage get replaced by automation or consolidation. States with

965
01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:29,800
Speaker 1: longer unemployment benefits during the COVID period saw SNAP caseloads

966
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:37,960
Speaker 1: rise four percent more than others. Moreover, Democrat run states

967
01:09:38,280 --> 01:09:43,240
Speaker 1: typically focus far less on job training programs, which would

968
01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 1: get people out of public assistance benefits like SNAP and

969
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 1: onto self sufficiency. In twenty twenty four, California has a

970
01:09:55,560 --> 01:10:01,720
Speaker 1: SNAP participation rate of fifteen percent Texas, which is very

971
01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:08,400
Speaker 1: comparable in population just ten percent. Why, According to the

972
01:10:08,400 --> 01:10:15,320
Speaker 1: Brookings Institute, there was massive investment in workforce training in

973
01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 1: Texas that, as a result, led to lower SNAP usage.

974
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 1: The conclusion of that study said, under investment in workforce

975
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 1: training is linked to persistent SNAP use. Forty percent of

976
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:35,639
Speaker 1: recipients of SNAP benefits of food stamps work in low

977
01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 1: skilled jobs if they're not getting any training to get

978
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 1: higher skilled jobs, even if they're making more. Because the

979
01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 1: state says well you need to pay these people fifteen

980
01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:51,800
Speaker 1: dollars an hour. It's not enough to be fully self sufficient.

981
01:10:52,040 --> 01:10:58,519
Speaker 1: The market determines wage. If wages are set artificially, jobs

982
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 1: disappear as employe opportunities dry up. Not only that, ironically,

983
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:10,120
Speaker 1: enough rent control, the likes of which that Zoran Mamdani

984
01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:13,560
Speaker 1: is currently proposing in New York City we discussed this

985
01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:19,720
Speaker 1: in the first hour, actually leads to more snap usage.

986
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:24,400
Speaker 1: Low income families are no longer as able to get

987
01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:28,800
Speaker 1: into affordable housing as rent control simply keeps people in

988
01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 1: those apartments for decades and decades and decades. They're not

989
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:36,680
Speaker 1: going to leave. They're not going to seek better housing

990
01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 1: because they simply aren't going to be able to afford it.

991
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:44,639
Speaker 1: Because the non subsidized housing goes up astronomically to make

992
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,479
Speaker 1: up for the lost rent in rent control apartments. This

993
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,559
Speaker 1: squeezes out people who are looking for housing but don't

994
01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:56,320
Speaker 1: have it yet. This means that families need to spend

995
01:11:56,439 --> 01:12:00,200
Speaker 1: even more on rent. Do you realize that in New

996
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 1: York City, your average family, even though there is a

997
01:12:03,560 --> 01:12:07,639
Speaker 1: whole lot of rent controlled apartments right now, average family

998
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:11,479
Speaker 1: spends half of their income in New York City on housing.

999
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,559
Speaker 1: Across the country, that number is thirty percent. This leaves

1000
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:21,000
Speaker 1: less money for food and obviously leads to more reliance

1001
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:28,320
Speaker 1: on food benefits. In fact, just this year, San Francisco's

1002
01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:33,719
Speaker 1: SNAP enrollment has risen eight percent amid a twenty percent

1003
01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:39,879
Speaker 1: spike in rent Despite a strong economy, Liberal states, according

1004
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 1: to a twenty twenty three study, have five to seven

1005
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:48,920
Speaker 1: percent higher SNAP participation than low cost conservative states, even

1006
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:52,879
Speaker 1: if those states have similar poverty levels. In other words,

1007
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:58,360
Speaker 1: Democrat policies at the state and city level well meaning

1008
01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 1: though they may be, don't actually get people out of poverty,

1009
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,439
Speaker 1: and in fact force them to spend more of their

1010
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:10,439
Speaker 1: money on say housing, force low skill, lower paying but

1011
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:14,280
Speaker 1: more easily attainable jobs that they would be able to

1012
01:13:14,320 --> 01:13:17,880
Speaker 1: get out of areas where they could perform those jobs,

1013
01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:22,640
Speaker 1: meaning that it keeps them in a cycle of dependency.

1014
01:13:22,680 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Dan O'Donnell Show. We will be

1015
01:13:26,240 --> 01:13:29,920
Speaker 1: back with the Unsung Hero of the Day. Coming up

1016
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:36,679
Speaker 1: next Steve Aoki's remix of the Halloween classic Thriller by

1017
01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson. I thought I saw. I think it was

1018
01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:46,400
Speaker 1: either Rolling Stone or Billboard had Thriller as something like

1019
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:52,880
Speaker 1: the twelfth Best Halloween song, which is almost laughable, obviously

1020
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:58,840
Speaker 1: greatest Halloween song ever, probably the best choreography. It is

1021
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: impossible to overstate the impact that the Thriller music video

1022
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:11,559
Speaker 1: had on American culture. Basically every pop star can trace

1023
01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:14,519
Speaker 1: his or her roots to Michael Jackson in some way

1024
01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:18,479
Speaker 1: and the Thriller choreographed dance with all the zombies. That

1025
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:20,640
Speaker 1: is a big reason why all right time out to

1026
01:14:20,680 --> 01:14:32,960
Speaker 1: name the unsung hero of the day. Today's unsung Heroine

1027
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:37,679
Speaker 1: of the day is Natalie Graybo, who this month became

1028
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 1: the oldest woman to finish the Iron Man World Championship.

1029
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:48,840
Speaker 1: Guess how old she is? Eighty years young. The grandmother

1030
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:52,479
Speaker 1: from Mountain Lakes, New Jersey, made history as the oldest

1031
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 1: woman to ever compete in the notoriously grueling event in Hawaii.

1032
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,919
Speaker 1: You're ready for this. She swam two point four miles.

1033
01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:04,679
Speaker 1: She only learned how to swim when she was nearly sixty.

1034
01:15:05,160 --> 01:15:09,879
Speaker 1: She cycled one hundred and twelve miles and then finished

1035
01:15:09,920 --> 01:15:15,000
Speaker 1: it off with a full twenty six point two mile

1036
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:21,040
Speaker 1: marathon that is stunning. About sixty younger competitors dropped out

1037
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:25,360
Speaker 1: before the finish line. Natalie didn't. She is the oldest

1038
01:15:25,400 --> 01:15:32,920
Speaker 1: woman to compete and finish the iron Man Triathlon Championship,

1039
01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:36,920
Speaker 1: and she is our unsung hero of the day. That's

1040
01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:40,360
Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. I'm not sure right now I'd be able

1041
01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:43,400
Speaker 1: to run two miles, let alone do all that. You're

1042
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:51,520
Speaker 1: listening to the Dan o'donald show. Back after the news,

1043
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:54,559
Speaker 1: I was just taking a quick walk outside. I had

1044
01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 1: to give my wife a phone call talking about what

1045
01:15:57,320 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 1: else kids schedules, and how we're gonna get this one

1046
01:16:01,400 --> 01:16:04,560
Speaker 1: to this practice and this one to this violin recital

1047
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:07,720
Speaker 1: and all of that. And I just love the way

1048
01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:11,599
Speaker 1: the sun hangs low in the sky, even though yes,

1049
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:15,720
Speaker 1: it is getting darker way earlier, and coming up this Saturday,

1050
01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:20,840
Speaker 1: we fall behind as daylight Saving Time ends, which basically

1051
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:24,919
Speaker 1: means it's gonna start getting dark at about five PM.

1052
01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:30,760
Speaker 1: I so love fall, and it reminded me that, even

1053
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:33,840
Speaker 1: though it's not yet Halloween, Christmas will be upon us

1054
01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:36,240
Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. Do you know how I know

1055
01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:42,120
Speaker 1: so because yesterday afternoon I walked into my bedroom and

1056
01:16:42,160 --> 01:16:46,000
Speaker 1: my daughter was all curled up on our bed watching

1057
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:50,120
Speaker 1: Home alone, and she looked at me and I kind

1058
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:52,040
Speaker 1: of say, oh, home alone. She said, I just wish

1059
01:16:52,040 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 1: it was Christmas time right now. She started the day

1060
01:16:55,439 --> 01:17:00,120
Speaker 1: watching hocus Pocus, which is by far her favorite movie. Know,

1061
01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:05,080
Speaker 1: this girl just gets into the holiday spirit. We are

1062
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 1: once again, and for those who are sort of newer

1063
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,040
Speaker 1: to the program, we are going to be doing the

1064
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 1: Dan O'Donnell show Family Christmas Special again. And this is

1065
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 1: programming that airs usually right around Christmas time. We usually

1066
01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 1: premiere it the day before Christmas Eve in the regular show,

1067
01:17:27,920 --> 01:17:30,640
Speaker 1: and we'll play it throughout the day on WIS and

1068
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:34,519
Speaker 1: on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. But it's starring the

1069
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:38,919
Speaker 1: kids and grandkids of our listening audience singing Christmas carols,

1070
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:44,400
Speaker 1: performing Christmas songs on their piano, their violin, their trumpets,

1071
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 1: whatever instruments we can find. We have had bagpipes. We

1072
01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:51,960
Speaker 1: had one little girl do the bagpipes. I forget the

1073
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:54,000
Speaker 1: song she played a couple of years ago, but it

1074
01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:57,639
Speaker 1: was fantastic. We have had I believe, the French horn.

1075
01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:03,400
Speaker 1: We have had school choirs and church orchestras and that

1076
01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:07,160
Speaker 1: sort of thing. It's just it's a wonderful celebration of

1077
01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:11,040
Speaker 1: the incredible talent that our young people have. I was

1078
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:16,479
Speaker 1: talking with my wife over the weekend just about the

1079
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:20,160
Speaker 1: culture of youth sports in America, and we're part of that.

1080
01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:23,240
Speaker 1: I mean, the kids are very involved in soccer and

1081
01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 1: other sports sort of more at the rec level. They

1082
01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:28,799
Speaker 1: the boys at least play there on the high school

1083
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:30,880
Speaker 1: golf team and that sort of stuff. And you know,

1084
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:33,080
Speaker 1: we did the baseball and the basketball and all that

1085
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,160
Speaker 1: when they were younger, before they decided to focus more

1086
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 1: on soccer. But it's just we were talking extensively about

1087
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:44,920
Speaker 1: how youth sports is just crowded out performing arts. It's

1088
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:48,960
Speaker 1: it's sort of crowded out, you know, National Honors Society,

1089
01:18:49,040 --> 01:18:52,600
Speaker 1: that stuff is still there, but it just seems like

1090
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 1: it's it's taken a big back seat, much more so

1091
01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:00,720
Speaker 1: than you know, when I was growing up and dinosaurs

1092
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:04,639
Speaker 1: were roaming the earth, where it was like you had

1093
01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 1: the local little league and that was it. There was

1094
01:19:08,600 --> 01:19:12,000
Speaker 1: no such thing as travel baseball that you play all

1095
01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:16,559
Speaker 1: year round. But what happened was adults realized that they

1096
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:19,360
Speaker 1: could make a whole lot of money running clubs. And

1097
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 1: this is in all sports, soccer, baseball, basketball, AAU has

1098
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:27,040
Speaker 1: been a thing forever, and parents believe if they don't

1099
01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:29,680
Speaker 1: get these kids on the travel teams get the very

1100
01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 1: best coaching and of course pay the very most money

1101
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:35,880
Speaker 1: that they're going to fall behind. But that leaves so

1102
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:40,519
Speaker 1: much less time for some of the most important stuff.

1103
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 1: And that's not necessarily you know, I'm not saying an

1104
01:19:43,600 --> 01:19:48,040
Speaker 1: organized you know, school orchestra or music necessarily, or the

1105
01:19:48,080 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 1: school play, but anything like a robotics team or something

1106
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:57,799
Speaker 1: like that. And do you remember, way back at about

1107
01:19:57,880 --> 01:20:02,439
Speaker 1: last Christmas time, Vivek Ramaswami came out and said, and

1108
01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 1: this got him basically drummed out of the MAGA movement.

1109
01:20:07,120 --> 01:20:12,680
Speaker 1: He said, the difference between American culture and say American,

1110
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:17,360
Speaker 1: Indian American or Chinese American culture is that the value

1111
01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 1: placed on American high school students, say, is on the

1112
01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:26,280
Speaker 1: homecoming king or the head cheerleader, the football quarterback, where

1113
01:20:26,439 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: in Chinese American and Indian American families it's placed on

1114
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:34,000
Speaker 1: the star stellar student. There's a lot of truth to that. Now,

1115
01:20:34,080 --> 01:20:36,760
Speaker 1: of course, it came out like, well, We're just going

1116
01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 1: to replace all of you stupid Americans with h one

1117
01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: V VISA immigrants to do all the skilled labor jobs

1118
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:47,080
Speaker 1: because you people are too stupid, and it along with

1119
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:51,680
Speaker 1: his deep, deep personal divide with Elon Musk led to

1120
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,960
Speaker 1: Avek just being nowhere near have you noticed you have

1121
01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:59,439
Speaker 1: not heard a whole lot from the vek Ramaswami. I've

1122
01:20:59,439 --> 01:21:01,680
Speaker 1: made my fear about the man very clear. I'm not

1123
01:21:01,720 --> 01:21:03,519
Speaker 1: a big fan of him. I think he was a

1124
01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: snake oil salesman from the very beginning who engaged in

1125
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:10,800
Speaker 1: what amounted to a pump and dump scheme. And I

1126
01:21:10,840 --> 01:21:13,160
Speaker 1: think he's a smooth talker who doesn't have a whole

1127
01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:15,759
Speaker 1: lot of substance. He's now running for governor of Ohio.

1128
01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:18,120
Speaker 1: But you'll notice he has no tie to the Trump

1129
01:21:18,200 --> 01:21:22,679
Speaker 1: administration whatsoever. You can actually tie it to that comment.

1130
01:21:23,600 --> 01:21:28,840
Speaker 1: All right, that was just a little impromptu riff. I

1131
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:32,960
Speaker 1: suppose before we formally start the five o'clock hour with

1132
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,880
Speaker 1: the Fall Fortune Cash Contest nationwide. Keyword is bills b

1133
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:39,320
Speaker 1: I l LS bills. You've got until five fifty five

1134
01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 1: to go to our website, enter the keyword bills and

1135
01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:44,840
Speaker 1: you will be entered four a chance to win one

1136
01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:49,360
Speaker 1: thousand dollars instantly. It is the Fall Fortune Cash Contest.

1137
01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 1: We play three, four and five every single afternoon here

1138
01:21:53,520 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 1: on the Dan o'donald's show. Well. The left spent an

1139
01:21:56,600 --> 01:22:00,760
Speaker 1: entire week freaking out that Donald Trump was a fascist

1140
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:06,160
Speaker 1: dictator because he is building a ballroom and tearing down

1141
01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:12,599
Speaker 1: the deeply historic East wing of the White House, which

1142
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:19,040
Speaker 1: was built by FDR and was run down, dilapidated, and

1143
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:23,760
Speaker 1: housed the First Lady's offices and pretty much not a

1144
01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,360
Speaker 1: whole lot else. Rather, obviously the White House needed a

1145
01:22:27,439 --> 01:22:33,439
Speaker 1: bigger ballroom. We cannot host state dinners in tents and

1146
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:37,519
Speaker 1: have world leaders urinating in porta potties. That is, honest

1147
01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:40,679
Speaker 1: to goodness, what goes on right now at giant state

1148
01:22:40,760 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 1: dinners They bring out porta potties on the White House

1149
01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:49,479
Speaker 1: lawn for dignitaries to use. Does that seem like it's

1150
01:22:49,560 --> 01:22:54,880
Speaker 1: befitting the wealthiest country on Earth. Trump, along with the

1151
01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:58,599
Speaker 1: number of private donors, is footing the entire three hundred

1152
01:22:58,680 --> 01:23:03,320
Speaker 1: million dollar cost this ballroom as a gift to future

1153
01:23:03,360 --> 01:23:07,000
Speaker 1: presidents and as a gift to the United States to

1154
01:23:07,040 --> 01:23:10,559
Speaker 1: show off its its power and majesty with a beautiful

1155
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:14,000
Speaker 1: ballroom for foreign dignitaries, which actually does Nobody has really

1156
01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:18,480
Speaker 1: talked about this. This actually does serve a very important

1157
01:23:18,520 --> 01:23:22,839
Speaker 1: state craft purpose. You put on a much better event

1158
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:27,320
Speaker 1: when you're hosting, say, the King of England, and your

1159
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:31,640
Speaker 1: ties two said global leader, are that much stronger. But

1160
01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:35,439
Speaker 1: last week we had a full left wing freakout about

1161
01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:39,640
Speaker 1: the Trump ballroom because this was evidence that Trump was

1162
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,719
Speaker 1: not going to leave when his term expired in twenty

1163
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:45,200
Speaker 1: twenty nine. In fact, he was going to find some

1164
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:49,799
Speaker 1: way to be able to stay in office now. Steve Bannon,

1165
01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:53,920
Speaker 1: who also has no tie to the Trump two point

1166
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:58,799
Speaker 1: zero term, apparently floated the idea that Trump could actually

1167
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:01,880
Speaker 1: get back to the White House if he ran as

1168
01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:06,760
Speaker 1: vice president, if say jd Vance ran as a presidential

1169
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 1: candidate and he picked Donald J. Trump to serve as

1170
01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 1: his running mate. On his way back from a trip

1171
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:18,680
Speaker 1: to Asia over the weekend where he met with the

1172
01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:25,160
Speaker 1: leader of Myanmar, Trump actually shut down the idea when

1173
01:24:25,360 --> 01:24:29,160
Speaker 1: he was asked about it. Only on how you might

1174
01:24:29,240 --> 01:24:30,599
Speaker 1: try to serve a third term.

1175
01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:32,679
Speaker 4: I said, you could write us the vice president.

1176
01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:34,040
Speaker 18: Yeah, I'd be allowed to do that.

1177
01:24:34,360 --> 01:24:38,439
Speaker 1: The White Houses for the West Council New Rope legal provision.

1178
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:40,600
Speaker 18: You'd be allowed to do that, but I wouldn't. I

1179
01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:43,360
Speaker 18: would do I think it's it's too cute. Yeah, I

1180
01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:45,720
Speaker 18: wouldn't do that up because it's too cute. I think

1181
01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,600
Speaker 18: that people wouldn't like that it's too cute. It's not

1182
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:49,760
Speaker 18: they wouldn't be right.

1183
01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:55,559
Speaker 1: So there you have the president shooting that down very

1184
01:24:55,560 --> 01:24:57,519
Speaker 1: difficulty here because it was a board Air Force one.

1185
01:24:57,920 --> 01:25:01,920
Speaker 1: He said no, I yes, I would be constitutionally allowed

1186
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:06,000
Speaker 1: to serve as vice president. What would happen if, let's

1187
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:10,240
Speaker 1: say this happened constitutionally, because the president could not serve

1188
01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:14,560
Speaker 1: more than two terms, If say President Vance were to

1189
01:25:14,680 --> 01:25:18,400
Speaker 1: be killed, vice President Trump would be passed over in

1190
01:25:18,520 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 1: the order of succession, and the President would be the

1191
01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:25,559
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. That's what would happen. That would

1192
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 1: be the constitutional mechanism. I don't know why this is

1193
01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:33,080
Speaker 1: so difficult, but President Trump specifically said no, I wouldn't

1194
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:34,439
Speaker 1: want to do that. That would be too cute. I

1195
01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 1: don't think the American people would like that. It would

1196
01:25:36,479 --> 01:25:38,600
Speaker 1: be too cute. I don't want to do that. This,

1197
01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:43,479
Speaker 1: of course, was evidence that Trump is actually going to

1198
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:49,600
Speaker 1: do that, and according to CNN and its presidential historian

1199
01:25:50,800 --> 01:25:56,160
Speaker 1: Alexis co that this is actually a threat. Every time

1200
01:25:56,280 --> 01:26:00,800
Speaker 1: Trump teases the possibility of him staying in washing after

1201
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:05,160
Speaker 1: his term ends that this is actually a grave threat

1202
01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:06,439
Speaker 1: to the old republic.

1203
01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:09,200
Speaker 19: We have a president and then that is supposed to

1204
01:26:09,240 --> 01:26:13,000
Speaker 19: be the leader, that is the democratically elected leader of

1205
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:16,320
Speaker 19: what is now the longest running republic in the history

1206
01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:19,720
Speaker 19: of the world. And perhaps you know, the providence is

1207
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:23,439
Speaker 19: that at two fifty it's no longer. But the president

1208
01:26:24,320 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 19: should not. You know, the constitution is really clear. You

1209
01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:30,000
Speaker 19: are elected, you can serve a certain amount of time

1210
01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:33,680
Speaker 19: and then no longer. And I think that there are

1211
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:37,400
Speaker 19: you know, as Bannon threatened, I would say, like, we

1212
01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:39,599
Speaker 19: do have to take this quite seriously. We should view

1213
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:42,520
Speaker 19: it as a threat. There are patterns that are established

1214
01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:44,720
Speaker 19: and we should we should look at them. I think

1215
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,599
Speaker 19: that when he threatens that there are workarounds, there's all

1216
01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:51,439
Speaker 19: sorts of nightmare scenarios that we can imagine. But what

1217
01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,360
Speaker 19: we do have to decide here as Americans, no matter

1218
01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:57,439
Speaker 19: what party we belong to, is what kind of country

1219
01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:58,040
Speaker 19: do we have.

1220
01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:04,480
Speaker 1: It never ceases to amaze me the level of Trump derangement.

1221
01:27:06,240 --> 01:27:12,280
Speaker 1: Trump actually ruled out that he would be trying to

1222
01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 1: do a workaround to stay in office. Yet we still

1223
01:27:16,400 --> 01:27:18,160
Speaker 1: have to treat this as a threat. This is a

1224
01:27:18,240 --> 01:27:21,719
Speaker 1: grave threat. We have to decide as Americans what type

1225
01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:26,439
Speaker 1: of country we want. Was it Ben Franklin who famously said,

1226
01:27:26,640 --> 01:27:29,400
Speaker 1: what form of government do we have? Mister Franklin, a

1227
01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:33,640
Speaker 1: republic if you can keep it. Democrats have utterly convinced

1228
01:27:33,720 --> 01:27:41,880
Speaker 1: themselves that every constitutional and legal mechanism for limiting the

1229
01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:44,680
Speaker 1: power of the executive branch is simply going to go

1230
01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:51,240
Speaker 1: haywire somehow. And lest we forget, Donald Trump actually did

1231
01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:57,519
Speaker 1: leave office before it happened on January twentieth, twenty twenty one.

1232
01:27:57,840 --> 01:28:01,439
Speaker 1: Do you know what happened? At exactly twelve noon on

1233
01:28:01,600 --> 01:28:05,640
Speaker 1: January twentieth, twenty twenty one, Joseph Biden was sworn in

1234
01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:08,639
Speaker 1: as President. Donald Trump was already on a plane down

1235
01:28:08,720 --> 01:28:12,799
Speaker 1: to mar A Lago in Florida. That's that's what happened.

1236
01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:17,080
Speaker 1: There was a peaceful transition of power. Now Democrats have

1237
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:22,519
Speaker 1: diluted themselves into believing that January sixth was somehow the

1238
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:26,400
Speaker 1: darkest day in American history. It was a riot at

1239
01:28:26,439 --> 01:28:32,679
Speaker 1: the Capitol, following three straight months of Democrat riots, including

1240
01:28:32,760 --> 01:28:36,000
Speaker 1: one at the White House where their thugs back in

1241
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:40,920
Speaker 1: June of twenty twenty tried to tear down the security fence,

1242
01:28:41,520 --> 01:28:45,920
Speaker 1: forcing the Secret Service to evacuate then President Trump into

1243
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:48,080
Speaker 1: the basement of the White House because there was a

1244
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:51,840
Speaker 1: genuine fear that the left wing psychopaths were going to

1245
01:28:51,920 --> 01:28:54,040
Speaker 1: be able to get access to the White House. Do

1246
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:56,080
Speaker 1: you know what the left wing media said about that.

1247
01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,320
Speaker 1: They made fun of Trump for being a sissy because

1248
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:03,439
Speaker 1: the Secrets Service evacuated him because the left wing goon

1249
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:08,400
Speaker 1: squad was trying to take over the White House. We

1250
01:29:08,560 --> 01:29:12,200
Speaker 1: forget about that one in our hysterical hand ringing over

1251
01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:15,400
Speaker 1: January sixth, two weeks later. There was a peaceful transition

1252
01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:17,560
Speaker 1: of power, just as there's been a peaceful transition of

1253
01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:21,920
Speaker 1: power in every single presidential transition in this nation's history.

1254
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:26,280
Speaker 1: But we like to pretend because Democrats have got their gullible,

1255
01:29:26,520 --> 01:29:31,000
Speaker 1: idiot base believing that Trump is some sort of unique

1256
01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:35,439
Speaker 1: existential threat to this country. Do you believe The thing

1257
01:29:35,560 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 1: that absolutely blows my mind is that Donald Trump is

1258
01:29:40,160 --> 01:29:44,760
Speaker 1: closer to them, at least traditional Democrats on policies such

1259
01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: as foreign diplomacy as well as international trade. He's in

1260
01:29:49,320 --> 01:29:54,840
Speaker 1: favor of tariffs. Democrats have loved tariffs forever. Donald Trump

1261
01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:58,400
Speaker 1: is a peacenick. He wants to end war at all costs.

1262
01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:02,160
Speaker 1: This was the Democrats position from the Vietnam War straight

1263
01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:04,880
Speaker 1: through to the War on Terror, right until oh, I

1264
01:30:04,960 --> 01:30:07,479
Speaker 1: don't know, Donald Trump started saying that he wanted to

1265
01:30:07,640 --> 01:30:11,719
Speaker 1: end wars, and then suddenly Democrats were doing their best

1266
01:30:11,880 --> 01:30:16,559
Speaker 1: Dick Cheney impression and trying to keep wars in Ukraine

1267
01:30:16,760 --> 01:30:22,839
Speaker 1: and the Middle East going. Eternally, he has absolutely broken

1268
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:26,920
Speaker 1: their brains. Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to tell

1269
01:30:26,960 --> 01:30:32,799
Speaker 1: you that the twenty twenty eight presidential election has already begun.

1270
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:38,800
Speaker 1: How do I know the leading candidate is already pandering

1271
01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:43,920
Speaker 1: to minority voters. It's a hilarious display from Gavin Newsom

1272
01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:49,559
Speaker 1: coming up next. This weekend saw a pitched battle between

1273
01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:55,479
Speaker 1: twenty twenty eight Democrat front runners Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris.

1274
01:30:56,040 --> 01:31:02,000
Speaker 1: Who could be more cringe and downright in embarrassing. Kamala,

1275
01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:06,080
Speaker 1: of course, is doing interview after interview after interview, something

1276
01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:09,280
Speaker 1: she pointedly refused to do while she was running for

1277
01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:12,280
Speaker 1: president because she didn't want to be exposed for the

1278
01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:16,799
Speaker 1: vapid midwit that she is. But she is now pitching

1279
01:31:16,960 --> 01:31:20,680
Speaker 1: her memoir and she is of course laying the groundwork

1280
01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 1: for another run in twenty twenty eight. Now everyone knows

1281
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:27,920
Speaker 1: she's going to try to run again. The whole point

1282
01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:30,720
Speaker 1: of the book, I believe the memoir is entitled one

1283
01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:34,200
Speaker 1: hundred and seven days or one hundred and seven brain cells,

1284
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:38,240
Speaker 1: referring to just what she had to work with in

1285
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four presidential election. My money is more

1286
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:44,679
Speaker 1: on one hundred and seven brain cells. But the entire

1287
01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:47,960
Speaker 1: book is saying, Okay, she only had this amount of time.

1288
01:31:48,160 --> 01:31:50,720
Speaker 1: Had she more time, she would have won. Had she

1289
01:31:50,840 --> 01:31:54,320
Speaker 1: more time, more Americans would have gotten to know just

1290
01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 1: what a vapid midwitch she is. She would have lost.

1291
01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:59,760
Speaker 1: Buy more. She did an interview over the weekend on

1292
01:32:00,240 --> 01:32:06,080
Speaker 1: BBC in which she said she I may be running again.

1293
01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:10,120
Speaker 1: The interviewer said, you are currently polling lower than Dwayne

1294
01:32:10,280 --> 01:32:11,679
Speaker 1: the Rock Johnson.

1295
01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:12,880
Speaker 15: Have you made a decision yet.

1296
01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:15,439
Speaker 1: No, I have not, But you say in your book

1297
01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:17,040
Speaker 1: I'm not done.

1298
01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:20,639
Speaker 20: That is correct. I am not done. I have lived

1299
01:32:20,920 --> 01:32:24,680
Speaker 20: my entire career a life of service, and it's in

1300
01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:28,160
Speaker 20: my bones, and there are many ways to serve. I've

1301
01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:31,240
Speaker 20: not decided yet what I will do in the future

1302
01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:34,519
Speaker 20: beyond what I am doing right now, but you've been very.

1303
01:32:34,479 --> 01:32:36,600
Speaker 17: Clear that it's a possibility you might run again to

1304
01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:40,120
Speaker 17: become president. And in my experience interviewing politicians, when someone

1305
01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:42,320
Speaker 17: says I'm not done, it means they are thinking seriously

1306
01:32:42,320 --> 01:32:42,880
Speaker 17: about running.

1307
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:46,280
Speaker 20: But when you look at the bookies' odds, they put

1308
01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:47,679
Speaker 20: you as.

1309
01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:50,400
Speaker 9: An outsider, even behind Dwayne the Rock Johnson.

1310
01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,519
Speaker 17: I mean, is that underestimating you.

1311
01:32:55,560 --> 01:32:57,679
Speaker 20: I think there are all kinds of polls that will

1312
01:32:57,720 --> 01:33:00,799
Speaker 20: tell you a variety of things. I've never to poles

1313
01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:03,040
Speaker 20: finalsten to polls, I would have not run for my

1314
01:33:03,120 --> 01:33:06,160
Speaker 20: first office or my second office, and I certainly wouldn't

1315
01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:07,280
Speaker 20: be sitting here in this interview.

1316
01:33:08,439 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 1: Kudos to that interviewer from the BEB who gave Kabbola

1317
01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:19,080
Speaker 1: the people's elbow by reminding her just how unpopular she

1318
01:33:19,720 --> 01:33:23,559
Speaker 1: actually is now. Not to be outdone. Remember I said

1319
01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:27,160
Speaker 1: this was a pitched battle to be the most cringe

1320
01:33:27,320 --> 01:33:29,679
Speaker 1: Democrat of the weekend. You had a lot of competition

1321
01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:32,800
Speaker 1: at the Zoran Mom Donnie Rally over in New York.

1322
01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:39,080
Speaker 1: But Gavin Newsom was on Steven Jackson's very popular NBA podcast.

1323
01:33:39,120 --> 01:33:42,400
Speaker 1: You remember the former Bucks Stephen Jackson. He has a

1324
01:33:42,560 --> 01:33:44,880
Speaker 1: very popular podcast I forget the title of it, but

1325
01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:48,160
Speaker 1: they have big guests on as you could imagine, and

1326
01:33:48,240 --> 01:33:53,920
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom was on All Black cast on this podcast

1327
01:33:54,960 --> 01:34:00,640
Speaker 1: primarily black production crew and Gavin Newsom, who is the

1328
01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:06,479
Speaker 1: whitest nineteen eighties rom com villain you have ever seen.

1329
01:34:07,520 --> 01:34:11,320
Speaker 1: And I will remind you the son of the attorney

1330
01:34:11,520 --> 01:34:17,599
Speaker 1: for the Getty family, like J. P. Getty, John Paul Getty,

1331
01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:22,040
Speaker 1: like the Getty Museum, like Billions on top of billions.

1332
01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:28,400
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom's dad was their family attorney. Here's Gavin in

1333
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:32,959
Speaker 1: front of an All Black audience crafting a new narrative

1334
01:34:33,200 --> 01:34:35,040
Speaker 1: about how he grew up.

1335
01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:37,800
Speaker 12: It was also about paying the bills man, And it

1336
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:41,639
Speaker 12: was just like hustling. And so I was out there

1337
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:45,960
Speaker 12: kind of raising myself, turning on the TV started, you know,

1338
01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:49,400
Speaker 12: just getting obsessed, you know, sitting there with the you know,

1339
01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:52,000
Speaker 12: the wonderbread and five stacks.

1340
01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:52,880
Speaker 1: Of you know, like the whites.

1341
01:34:56,960 --> 01:34:57,240
Speaker 6: Come on.

1342
01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:05,120
Speaker 1: That's how I grew up, bro with white bread and

1343
01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:09,080
Speaker 1: macaroni and cheese. Now it was made by my nanny,

1344
01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:12,559
Speaker 1: but I still I grew up on white bread and macars.

1345
01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:13,200
Speaker 6: I was just.

1346
01:35:13,320 --> 01:35:17,760
Speaker 1: Hustling man, paying the bills and he said. He goes

1347
01:35:17,840 --> 01:35:19,960
Speaker 1: on to say, I was just shooting free throws five

1348
01:35:20,040 --> 01:35:21,920
Speaker 1: hundred a day because I knew it was my only

1349
01:35:22,040 --> 01:35:25,439
Speaker 1: way out, and I was throwing that baseball against the

1350
01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:28,400
Speaker 1: garage in the hope that I would be able to

1351
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:32,760
Speaker 1: escape the life of extreme poverty as the Getty family's

1352
01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:40,160
Speaker 1: attorney's son. Why do Democrats do this? Truly, Sandyo Cassio

1353
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:48,040
Speaker 1: aka AOC the Bartender narrative, I'm surprised it took cool.

1354
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:53,920
Speaker 1: Her family was very upper middle class. Zorn Mamdani came

1355
01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:59,960
Speaker 1: from a very wealthy family, very upper crust New York family.

1356
01:36:01,120 --> 01:36:05,720
Speaker 1: Yet they all pretend to be just poor Ali from

1357
01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:11,000
Speaker 1: the block. Zorn eating rice with his hands, because oh,

1358
01:36:11,120 --> 01:36:14,200
Speaker 1: that was the culture I was raised in. No, it wasn't.

1359
01:36:14,680 --> 01:36:19,960
Speaker 1: You had more forks at your family's dinner table than

1360
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:24,439
Speaker 1: the average family has ramen meals in a given day.

1361
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:29,400
Speaker 1: None of these people know anything about poverty. Now, most

1362
01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:33,680
Speaker 1: normal people would be honest about how they grew up.

1363
01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:39,240
Speaker 1: I'm very proud of my family. My mother was one

1364
01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:43,240
Speaker 1: of the first two elected female Circuit Court judges in

1365
01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:46,240
Speaker 1: the history of Milwaukee County. I'm incredibly proud of that.

1366
01:36:47,520 --> 01:36:51,120
Speaker 1: My father was a practicing attorney for many many years

1367
01:36:51,479 --> 01:36:54,600
Speaker 1: who started a business, a very successful business, and he

1368
01:36:54,680 --> 01:37:02,800
Speaker 1: basically invented a new form of insurance subrogation law. Am

1369
01:37:02,840 --> 01:37:05,280
Speaker 1: I going to lie and say I grew up in

1370
01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:05,840
Speaker 1: the gutter?

1371
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:06,720
Speaker 4: No?

1372
01:37:07,040 --> 01:37:10,960
Speaker 1: I didn't. I had a very good life because my

1373
01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:14,960
Speaker 1: parents worked very hard instilled in me, and I am

1374
01:37:15,080 --> 01:37:18,720
Speaker 1: now instilling in my children a belief that if you

1375
01:37:18,880 --> 01:37:21,759
Speaker 1: do work hard, if you do do well in school,

1376
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:25,000
Speaker 1: if you do have a drive and a work ethic,

1377
01:37:25,880 --> 01:37:30,560
Speaker 1: you can and will succeed. I would love for anybody

1378
01:37:30,680 --> 01:37:34,320
Speaker 1: to tell me how I was so privileged in getting

1379
01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:37,920
Speaker 1: into talk radio with my parents. My great uncle was

1380
01:37:38,120 --> 01:37:42,000
Speaker 1: county executive for many years. Bill O'Donnell, my grandfather's brother.

1381
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:47,120
Speaker 1: My grandpa was a county attorney for many many years.

1382
01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,960
Speaker 1: What is it about democrats that they have to lie

1383
01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:54,120
Speaker 1: about who they are?

1384
01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:54,240
Speaker 9: What?

1385
01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:56,320
Speaker 1: I guess I could end that sense. What is it

1386
01:37:56,400 --> 01:38:00,040
Speaker 1: about democrats that they have to lie? What would do

1387
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:02,680
Speaker 1: you think of me? For example? And I'm just a

1388
01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:04,880
Speaker 1: radio host. I don't want to be your governor or

1389
01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:07,400
Speaker 1: your president or anything like that. I want to entertain

1390
01:38:07,520 --> 01:38:09,880
Speaker 1: you for three hours a day while you drive home.

1391
01:38:11,840 --> 01:38:14,800
Speaker 1: If I was I was saying about all of this

1392
01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:20,000
Speaker 1: struggle and hardship and all of that, and you found

1393
01:38:20,040 --> 01:38:24,640
Speaker 1: out it just wasn't true. Clearly, Gavin Newsom was not

1394
01:38:24,800 --> 01:38:28,720
Speaker 1: eating white bread and mac and cheese, although as he

1395
01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:31,400
Speaker 1: said that, I'm kind of think of the kids really

1396
01:38:31,479 --> 01:38:34,559
Speaker 1: like Kraft macaroni and cheese, so do I. I happen

1397
01:38:34,680 --> 01:38:38,280
Speaker 1: to like white bread, sue me. I like sourdough bread

1398
01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:41,040
Speaker 1: quite a bit more Italian bread obviously, but you know,

1399
01:38:41,240 --> 01:38:45,360
Speaker 1: white bread and mac and cheese. I like ramen. My producer,

1400
01:38:45,479 --> 01:38:48,840
Speaker 1: Jeff Worlowski and I we bonded over our love of

1401
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,599
Speaker 1: the ramen soup in a cup or with a cupo

1402
01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:53,560
Speaker 1: soup or whatever. It's fantastic.

1403
01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:54,720
Speaker 6: You know.

1404
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:58,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I make a lot of money. I eat ramen,

1405
01:38:58,800 --> 01:39:02,120
Speaker 1: I eat macaroni and cheese. I can't assume me. I

1406
01:39:02,160 --> 01:39:09,040
Speaker 1: don't know. But Democrats have this pathological need to create

1407
01:39:09,200 --> 01:39:13,000
Speaker 1: for themselves allure that just is not in any way

1408
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:20,080
Speaker 1: in line with reality, because they believe that success or

1409
01:39:20,640 --> 01:39:24,800
Speaker 1: coming from something that isn't abject poverty or dysfunction is

1410
01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:29,040
Speaker 1: somehow immoral. Because if you think about it, to the

1411
01:39:29,160 --> 01:39:36,080
Speaker 1: democrat brain, to the left wing communist modern ideology to

1412
01:39:36,280 --> 01:39:40,400
Speaker 1: admit where san Dio, Cassio and Zoron, Mamdannie and Gavin

1413
01:39:40,439 --> 01:39:44,439
Speaker 1: Newsom actually came from is to admit that they are

1414
01:39:44,600 --> 01:39:48,240
Speaker 1: this stated enemy. They are the hated rich, They are

1415
01:39:48,479 --> 01:39:52,280
Speaker 1: the people who democrats need to protect the rest of

1416
01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:57,679
Speaker 1: society against. It is a truly warped worldview that almost

1417
01:39:57,960 --> 01:40:03,479
Speaker 1: forces this level of sociopathy where you get people just

1418
01:40:03,680 --> 01:40:07,280
Speaker 1: openly lying about it. It's like he's Steve Martin saying

1419
01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:12,040
Speaker 1: I was born a poor black child. You get this

1420
01:40:12,240 --> 01:40:16,000
Speaker 1: because he can't be honest about who he is, because

1421
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:19,720
Speaker 1: Democrats have openly said if you are white, if you

1422
01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:24,599
Speaker 1: are heterosexual, if you are Christian, if you live above

1423
01:40:24,640 --> 01:40:28,479
Speaker 1: a certain level of salary, we hate you. We want

1424
01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:32,240
Speaker 1: to seize your assets, we want to take the country

1425
01:40:32,360 --> 01:40:37,840
Speaker 1: from you and subjugate you. In that sense, maybe it

1426
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:42,400
Speaker 1: makes all the sense in the world that Gavin Newsom

1427
01:40:42,439 --> 01:40:46,040
Speaker 1: would pretend to be a poor black child. Dan O'donnald Show,

1428
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:48,760
Speaker 1: coming right back, admit it. Last night's win felt a

1429
01:40:48,840 --> 01:40:52,439
Speaker 1: little sweeter, didn't it, because it was over Aaron Rodgers

1430
01:40:52,520 --> 01:40:58,000
Speaker 1: and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pittsburgh dominated that first half. Kudos

1431
01:40:58,160 --> 01:41:03,240
Speaker 1: to Matt Lafleur for making the necessary adjustments, and Jordan Love.

1432
01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:05,560
Speaker 1: I don't know if he was in a coma in

1433
01:41:05,640 --> 01:41:10,200
Speaker 1: the first half, but he completes twenty consecutive passes, the

1434
01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 1: most since Brett farre for the Packers, and Tuck her

1435
01:41:14,439 --> 01:41:17,559
Speaker 1: Craft with two touchdowns and one hundred and forty plus

1436
01:41:17,720 --> 01:41:20,400
Speaker 1: yards receiving, just had the game of his life. I'm

1437
01:41:20,439 --> 01:41:22,479
Speaker 1: telling you, I have been saying that I have been

1438
01:41:22,600 --> 01:41:26,240
Speaker 1: beating the drum all season long, really since last season.

1439
01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:29,800
Speaker 1: Tucker Kraft is going to be the next provided he

1440
01:41:29,920 --> 01:41:32,599
Speaker 1: stays healthy, he is going to be the next great

1441
01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:35,680
Speaker 1: NFL tight end. He may not end up with a

1442
01:41:35,760 --> 01:41:39,240
Speaker 1: pop star wife, but he is good. He may not

1443
01:41:40,439 --> 01:41:44,320
Speaker 1: end up by being, you know, being the nation's premiere

1444
01:41:44,439 --> 01:41:49,280
Speaker 1: meathead like Rob Gronkowski, but he is going to put

1445
01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:53,559
Speaker 1: up that level of production. He looks that good. Hard

1446
01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:57,840
Speaker 1: to believe the Packers took Muskrave around ahead of Craft.

1447
01:41:57,880 --> 01:41:59,760
Speaker 1: How do you think Luke Muskrave feels. I mean, I'm

1448
01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:02,000
Speaker 1: sure happy for his teammate, and I'm told the two

1449
01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:06,559
Speaker 1: are friends, but man, Tucker Craft just looks like a special,

1450
01:42:07,000 --> 01:42:11,040
Speaker 1: special player. Am I the only Green Bay Packers fan

1451
01:42:11,160 --> 01:42:15,360
Speaker 1: and I sometimes feel like I am who has a

1452
01:42:15,479 --> 01:42:22,120
Speaker 1: lingering soft spot for Aaron Rodgers. Producer Jeff, you're saying, no, no,

1453
01:42:22,280 --> 01:42:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm not the only guy, or no, you love Aaron Rodgers. Okay, good.

1454
01:42:28,080 --> 01:42:34,280
Speaker 1: I think people forget as weird and as socially awkward

1455
01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:38,080
Speaker 1: and as frankly vindictive to the people in his personal life,

1456
01:42:38,160 --> 01:42:41,080
Speaker 1: like his family, who he apparently hasn't talked to in

1457
01:42:41,200 --> 01:42:45,840
Speaker 1: something like a decade. He is one of us. He

1458
01:42:46,080 --> 01:42:50,160
Speaker 1: is a libertarian leaning conservative. He got red pilled by

1459
01:42:50,320 --> 01:42:55,960
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. He is a big supporter of RFK Junior

1460
01:42:56,040 --> 01:43:00,760
Speaker 1: and the MAHA Make America Healthy Again movement. But over

1461
01:43:00,880 --> 01:43:04,040
Speaker 1: and above that, I mean, I guess I'm just old

1462
01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:09,000
Speaker 1: enough to remember what a great player he was. I mean,

1463
01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:15,280
Speaker 1: in terms of the pure ability to play the quarterback position.

1464
01:43:16,080 --> 01:43:19,200
Speaker 1: I'm not sure I've seen anybody better in the history

1465
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:22,080
Speaker 1: of the NFL. And I know what a statement that is.

1466
01:43:23,320 --> 01:43:26,920
Speaker 1: You put Aaron Rodgers on the New England Patriots had

1467
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:30,960
Speaker 1: the same defenses as Tom Brady. You put Aaron Rodgers

1468
01:43:31,479 --> 01:43:35,320
Speaker 1: on the two thousand and seven New England Patriots with

1469
01:43:35,479 --> 01:43:40,880
Speaker 1: Randy Moss, I'm fairly confident. Rogers throws eighty touchdowns. You

1470
01:43:41,000 --> 01:43:44,840
Speaker 1: put Rogers on the Peyton Manning Denver Broncos where Manning

1471
01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:48,519
Speaker 1: had like fifty five touchdowns, Demarius Thomas the late great receiver,

1472
01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:52,080
Speaker 1: and it wasn't Courtland Sutton, whoever the other one was.

1473
01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:54,880
Speaker 1: He had a couple of just incredible receivers. They had

1474
01:43:55,080 --> 01:44:00,360
Speaker 1: an amazing passing attack. Rogers throws seventy five touchdowns, That's

1475
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:03,080
Speaker 1: how good he was in his prime. He's clearly well

1476
01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:05,679
Speaker 1: past his prime. But you saw some of those throws

1477
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:08,200
Speaker 1: that he was making in the first half, some of

1478
01:44:08,240 --> 01:44:12,439
Speaker 1: the throws. I've been keeping tabs on Pittsburgh this season.

1479
01:44:12,840 --> 01:44:15,599
Speaker 1: Their defense is just not nearly as good as advertise.

1480
01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:18,439
Speaker 1: It showed. I mean, they were just giving up yards

1481
01:44:18,479 --> 01:44:22,080
Speaker 1: in bunches. They had no answer for Tucker Craft. The

1482
01:44:22,240 --> 01:44:25,160
Speaker 1: running game wore them down. They just didn't look like

1483
01:44:25,240 --> 01:44:28,520
Speaker 1: a great defense, and normally the Steelers have just great defenses.

1484
01:44:29,439 --> 01:44:31,880
Speaker 1: Packers did not look like a good team in the

1485
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:35,800
Speaker 1: first half. And yes, early on this season they have

1486
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:38,719
Speaker 1: sort of struggled a little bit to find their footing.

1487
01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:42,600
Speaker 1: But I think people are sleeping on them. Yes, a

1488
01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:46,240
Speaker 1: loss to the Cleveland Browns will do that to you,

1489
01:44:47,040 --> 01:44:50,400
Speaker 1: and yes, a tie to a Dallas Cowboys team that

1490
01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:53,519
Speaker 1: we thought was not nearly as good as it is,

1491
01:44:53,640 --> 01:44:58,720
Speaker 1: at least offensively. I do believe the Packers right now

1492
01:44:59,040 --> 01:45:04,360
Speaker 1: are probably their record. Their winning percentage actually puts them

1493
01:45:04,439 --> 01:45:08,280
Speaker 1: number one in the league. Because of that tie. I

1494
01:45:08,400 --> 01:45:11,040
Speaker 1: think they're probably the third or fourth best team in

1495
01:45:11,120 --> 01:45:14,960
Speaker 1: the league right now. Now what does that matter come

1496
01:45:15,080 --> 01:45:19,640
Speaker 1: playoff time? Absolutely nothing. And the Packers do have a

1497
01:45:19,840 --> 01:45:25,160
Speaker 1: relatively difficult schedule. But who looks better than them right now?

1498
01:45:25,240 --> 01:45:30,000
Speaker 1: Detroit they look pretty good. I'll give you that. The

1499
01:45:30,120 --> 01:45:32,800
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos, what if they won five straight games? They

1500
01:45:32,880 --> 01:45:36,600
Speaker 1: look very good defensively. And Bo Nicks appears to be

1501
01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:39,320
Speaker 1: the real deal. And how about speaking of the New

1502
01:45:39,360 --> 01:45:43,960
Speaker 1: England Patriots, Drake may is looking like a great quarterback.

1503
01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:44,240
Speaker 20: Two.

1504
01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:47,040
Speaker 1: You've got two teams out there in New England and

1505
01:45:47,120 --> 01:45:51,880
Speaker 1: Buffalo that are very very good. The Indianapolis Colts. Actually,

1506
01:45:51,960 --> 01:45:54,800
Speaker 1: the Colts have the best record in football because they

1507
01:45:55,360 --> 01:45:57,360
Speaker 1: only have one loss, right, They're seven and one. Yeah,

1508
01:45:57,400 --> 01:45:59,360
Speaker 1: so okay, the Colts have the best record in football.

1509
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:03,720
Speaker 1: You've of course always got the Kansas City Rafts, excuse me,

1510
01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:09,000
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs. Philadelphia still looks pretty good, but

1511
01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:12,479
Speaker 1: the Packers are right in their Tampa Bay looks like

1512
01:46:12,560 --> 01:46:17,000
Speaker 1: a good team, fortunately for Green Bay. The Minnesota Vikings,

1513
01:46:17,439 --> 01:46:19,840
Speaker 1: I'm still has anybody figured out what's going on with

1514
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:24,519
Speaker 1: their quarterback JJ McCarthy. Carson Wentz is now apparently out

1515
01:46:24,600 --> 01:46:27,120
Speaker 1: for the year, and nobody is being straight about the

1516
01:46:27,360 --> 01:46:30,679
Speaker 1: Jj McCarthy injury, which makes me think there's some friction

1517
01:46:31,360 --> 01:46:37,519
Speaker 1: between McCarthy and the Vikings already. Producer Jeff says it's

1518
01:46:37,600 --> 01:46:40,320
Speaker 1: because and I quote, he sucks. How much do you

1519
01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:43,680
Speaker 1: think the Vikings are regretting not signing Aaron Rodgers in

1520
01:46:43,760 --> 01:46:46,719
Speaker 1: the off season. I thought that was a massive mistake.

1521
01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:50,200
Speaker 1: First of all, it would have fulfilled his destiny to

1522
01:46:50,479 --> 01:46:54,439
Speaker 1: just follow Brett Farre's career completely going to the Jets

1523
01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:57,680
Speaker 1: and then the Minnesota Vikings. But it just made all

1524
01:46:57,760 --> 01:47:00,400
Speaker 1: the sense in the world. You're gonna rush mc carthy

1525
01:47:00,520 --> 01:47:05,000
Speaker 1: back from a bad knee injury. You're gonna throw him

1526
01:47:05,080 --> 01:47:07,960
Speaker 1: into what is very likely one of the best divisions,

1527
01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:13,280
Speaker 1: if not the best division in football. The other big

1528
01:47:13,439 --> 01:47:17,280
Speaker 1: takeaway from Sunday and I watched a good amount of

1529
01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:19,599
Speaker 1: the games. I was doing stuff around the house, mowing

1530
01:47:19,640 --> 01:47:22,720
Speaker 1: the lawn and I had YouTube TV on, so yes,

1531
01:47:22,840 --> 01:47:25,679
Speaker 1: I was one of those guys who was watching TV

1532
01:47:25,880 --> 01:47:29,800
Speaker 1: on my phone while mowing the lawn. It was funny,

1533
01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:36,000
Speaker 1: it was great. Cam Skataboo just destroying his ankle badly dislocated,

1534
01:47:36,120 --> 01:47:40,479
Speaker 1: broken out for this season with ankle surgery. That is

1535
01:47:41,200 --> 01:47:44,360
Speaker 1: horrible for the NFL. For those who don't know, Cam's

1536
01:47:44,360 --> 01:47:48,920
Speaker 1: Skataboo is this little white rookie running back who he's

1537
01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:52,560
Speaker 1: sort of like, who is that he man character? He

1538
01:47:52,720 --> 01:47:55,880
Speaker 1: man's buddy who would like use his head to like

1539
01:47:56,080 --> 01:47:59,759
Speaker 1: butt in it. Not man at arms. Oh my gosh,

1540
01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:01,800
Speaker 1: he had the toy when I was a kid. That

1541
01:48:02,040 --> 01:48:05,800
Speaker 1: is Cam Skataboo, okay, And he's just he's this little

1542
01:48:05,920 --> 01:48:09,120
Speaker 1: meat heead and he was just He made the New

1543
01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:13,400
Speaker 1: York Giants, he and Jackson Dart, their rookie quarterback. He

1544
01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:16,360
Speaker 1: made them look just like an inquir They were a

1545
01:48:16,560 --> 01:48:20,040
Speaker 1: fun team to watch, and it was just sad to

1546
01:48:20,200 --> 01:48:22,760
Speaker 1: see his season end like that. So here's hoping that

1547
01:48:22,840 --> 01:48:25,120
Speaker 1: he is back, because guys like him are just good

1548
01:48:25,160 --> 01:48:28,680
Speaker 1: for the full of personality. You just can't help but

1549
01:48:28,960 --> 01:48:34,000
Speaker 1: root for them. That honestly, it's sort of like I

1550
01:48:34,120 --> 01:48:36,200
Speaker 1: had the same connection to Brett Farv. I mean, Brett

1551
01:48:36,200 --> 01:48:38,280
Speaker 1: Farv was the Packers quarterback when I was a little kid.

1552
01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:42,479
Speaker 1: Obviously I am going to love Brett Farr. But man,

1553
01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:47,799
Speaker 1: the technical mastery of the quarterback position by Aaron Rodgers,

1554
01:48:50,040 --> 01:48:53,439
Speaker 1: it was. It was truly a beautiful thing to beholding.

1555
01:48:53,479 --> 01:48:55,320
Speaker 1: The old man still got it. Did you see the

1556
01:48:55,560 --> 01:49:00,160
Speaker 1: uh hail Mary he threw? It went seventy yards in

1557
01:49:00,200 --> 01:49:02,800
Speaker 1: the other guy's forty two years old? All right, we

1558
01:49:02,840 --> 01:49:05,240
Speaker 1: will be back to rather. I just had to talk

1559
01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:08,040
Speaker 1: a little bit about football. Sue me, folks. It was

1560
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:09,800
Speaker 1: a great Packers win. We'll be back on the Dan

1561
01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:13,479
Speaker 1: O'Donnell show after this is dot com talking text line

1562
01:49:13,520 --> 01:49:18,600
Speaker 1: that he Man's buddy, who reminds me of cam Scataboo,

1563
01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:27,360
Speaker 1: is named Si ram Man. He Man is not beating

1564
01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:34,519
Speaker 1: the allegations walking around in his skimpy loincloth with a

1565
01:49:34,600 --> 01:49:39,320
Speaker 1: homie named ram Man. If you were a child of

1566
01:49:39,400 --> 01:49:43,320
Speaker 1: the eighties, you grew up with he Man, despite how

1567
01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:47,360
Speaker 1: totally gay the concept all what. So let's see, Prince

1568
01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:55,440
Speaker 1: Adam has to keep his wild warrior, scantily clad, shirtless,

1569
01:49:55,600 --> 01:50:01,400
Speaker 1: rippling muscle persona hidden from the rest of the Kingdom.

1570
01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:04,000
Speaker 1: But it would come out and he would hang out

1571
01:50:04,120 --> 01:50:11,400
Speaker 1: with ram Man and they would battle Skeletor. We had

1572
01:50:11,439 --> 01:50:13,960
Speaker 1: no idea what this was an allegory for when we

1573
01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:17,080
Speaker 1: were five years old, but by God, we loved those toys.

1574
01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:22,280
Speaker 1: I had practically every he Man toy. I loved he

1575
01:50:22,439 --> 01:50:28,519
Speaker 1: Man toys. I even had Shira, which was marketed towards girls,

1576
01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:31,479
Speaker 1: but I was I didn't get the other Shira dolls,

1577
01:50:31,520 --> 01:50:34,800
Speaker 1: which were just obviously dolls, but Sheira was integral to

1578
01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:38,719
Speaker 1: the story. He Man needed Shira to defeat the powers

1579
01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:42,160
Speaker 1: of Skeletor and Hoardak. I guess they're making another live

1580
01:50:42,280 --> 01:50:45,320
Speaker 1: action he Man movie. They're trying to make this into

1581
01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:49,880
Speaker 1: another big franchise. But ram Man was the guy who

1582
01:50:51,280 --> 01:50:57,320
Speaker 1: ram Man. His name is ram Man, okay, and he

1583
01:50:57,320 --> 01:51:00,240
Speaker 1: would use his head to just batter into people. That's

1584
01:51:00,240 --> 01:51:06,960
Speaker 1: who reminded me of Cam Scataboo. Late breaking news, John Dickerson,

1585
01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:10,920
Speaker 1: longtime CBS news anchor, most recently the co anchor of

1586
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:15,720
Speaker 1: the CBS Evening News, says today he's done. In November,

1587
01:51:15,960 --> 01:51:20,120
Speaker 1: he is going to exit the network. Barry Weiss not

1588
01:51:20,360 --> 01:51:24,840
Speaker 1: the delicious beer from Linen Googles, but rather the editor

1589
01:51:24,880 --> 01:51:28,360
Speaker 1: of the Free Press, who was brought in following the

1590
01:51:28,680 --> 01:51:33,599
Speaker 1: acquisition of CBS to be the CBS News editor in chief.

1591
01:51:34,280 --> 01:51:36,599
Speaker 1: I still love the fact that her name is Barry Weiss.

1592
01:51:37,240 --> 01:51:39,320
Speaker 1: Whenever I would talk about her or the Free Press

1593
01:51:39,439 --> 01:51:41,800
Speaker 1: or something, all people would say, Barry Weiss, You mean

1594
01:51:41,920 --> 01:51:44,759
Speaker 1: like the drink. Yes, in Wisconsin, we think of something

1595
01:51:44,840 --> 01:51:48,519
Speaker 1: completely different when we hear the words Barry Weiss. Barry

1596
01:51:48,560 --> 01:51:52,519
Speaker 1: Weiss is supposed to be offering a massive amount of

1597
01:51:52,640 --> 01:51:57,080
Speaker 1: money to pry Brett Bayer away from the Fox News Channel.

1598
01:51:57,479 --> 01:51:59,840
Speaker 1: If I'm Brett Baher's agent, he would take over this

1599
01:52:00,040 --> 01:52:05,479
Speaker 1: CBS Evening News. I would disavow this idea. No matter

1600
01:52:05,600 --> 01:52:09,040
Speaker 1: how much money CBS offers you, it would go the

1601
01:52:09,240 --> 01:52:14,840
Speaker 1: same way Megan Kelly with NBC went, No left wing

1602
01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:18,720
Speaker 1: newsroom will ever accept you because you dared to work

1603
01:52:18,840 --> 01:52:22,599
Speaker 1: for Fox News. That's the reality of and that speaks

1604
01:52:22,720 --> 01:52:26,560
Speaker 1: volumes about the state of the news business and precisely

1605
01:52:26,680 --> 01:52:29,960
Speaker 1: why someone like Barry Weiss, who is not in any

1606
01:52:30,040 --> 01:52:33,840
Speaker 1: way a dogmatic conservative, but rather someone who actually cares

1607
01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:40,960
Speaker 1: a book about more honest, less overtly propagandistic news masquerading

1608
01:52:41,040 --> 01:52:44,080
Speaker 1: as fair and balanced, and at this point people's oh dud,

1609
01:52:44,360 --> 01:52:47,919
Speaker 1: dn you do conservative news. Yes, I am an opinion journalist,

1610
01:52:48,000 --> 01:52:50,599
Speaker 1: and I tell you I'm an opinion journalist. I don't

1611
01:52:50,640 --> 01:52:53,519
Speaker 1: pretend to play it straight down the middle. CBS News,

1612
01:52:53,720 --> 01:52:58,080
Speaker 1: especially sixty Minutes has Weiss is supposed to be shaking

1613
01:52:58,280 --> 01:53:00,960
Speaker 1: up sixty Minutes as well. It would be one thing

1614
01:53:02,080 --> 01:53:06,720
Speaker 1: if these programs were doing exceptionally well. They're not. They

1615
01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:10,880
Speaker 1: are in dire need of an overhaul, and if the

1616
01:53:10,960 --> 01:53:14,760
Speaker 1: TV news business wants to remain relevant in the era

1617
01:53:15,000 --> 01:53:19,280
Speaker 1: of social media and viral clips, it would do well

1618
01:53:19,680 --> 01:53:23,559
Speaker 1: to appeal to all people, not just lips out of time.

1619
01:53:23,760 --> 01:53:26,600
Speaker 1: Talk to you tomorrow three oh six, right here on

1620
01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:27,800
Speaker 1: the Dan O'donnald's show.
