1 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:14,680 Speaker 1: News Radio seven hundred WLW Mike Allen Junior, Sunday Night, 2 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 1: the March first, twenty twenty sixth edition. What's going on, folks, 3 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: just joining us Reds take to l Good News. It's 4 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 1: spring training. Okay, everybody, buckle up, because it's one thing 5 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: for me to come in here on the Sunday after 6 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: the State of the Union. It's another thing for me 7 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: to come in here the day after a mass shooting 8 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: in the city of Cincinnati. But it's another thing for 9 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: me to come in here a couple of days removed 10 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 1: from an attack on Iran that killed the world's leading 11 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: dealer in Islamic tear rorism, and that is the Ayatoly 12 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: Ali Hamani. Not here to celebrate anybody's death, folks, But 13 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: gotta be honest, I'm not exactly sad that this animal 14 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: is now pushing daisies. Buckle up, folks. Tonight's show has 15 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: a theme, and it is the world is testing us. 16 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 1: Our politics are testing us, and our city government is 17 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: testing us. And the common thread is simple. Weakness invites 18 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: pressure and strength demands recalculation. We've got Americans killed overseas 19 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: in an Iranian retaliatory strike. We've got a Ran lashing 20 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: out at its fellow Muslim neighbors. Granted they're Sunni Muslim 21 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: rather than Shia Muslim, and if not to get into 22 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: a Middle Eastern history thing here, but they don't exactly 23 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: get along. But it is shocking that they are just 24 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: randomly lobbing missiles at every one of the neighbors. We've 25 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: got nine people killed in a mass shooting here right 26 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: here in Cincinnati. We've got a mass shooting in Austin, 27 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: Texas from a guy wearing a T shirt that seems 28 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 1: to say property of a law, which the FBI is 29 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: not probing whether or not that's connected to what's going 30 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: on in Iran. And also we've got members of Congress 31 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: heckling the President during the State of the Union. I'm 32 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: out of breath, I'm dizzy, and my eyes are going cross. 33 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: So I need your help. Seven four nine the big 34 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: one of the numbers to call. And on top of 35 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: all of that relevant to the shooting here in Cincinnati, 36 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: we've got political leaders who seem more comfortable performing rather 37 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: than actually enforcing. So that's tonight, let's break it down. So, yeah, 38 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Iran did not wake up yesterday and suddenly become hostile. 39 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: This regime was born of hostility. In nineteen seventy nine, 40 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: American embassy seized Americans, held hostage for four hundred and 41 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: forty four days. There's no and again a lot of 42 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: the political eggheads are trying to obfuscate here that you're 43 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: seeing on TV. That's not a complicated thing. Literally, their 44 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 1: founding act was to take Americans hostage and hold them 45 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: for four hundred and forty four days, and it's been 46 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: in their constitution essentially to just embarrass the United States. 47 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: And from there we got Hesbala funded militia's armed Hamas, 48 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 1: supported Huthi's armed to the teeth, the Bashar Alissade regime, 49 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: and before his father, before him, his father, Jefees Alissade 50 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: machine totally regime propped up decades of proxy warfare, decades 51 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: of missile programs, decades of nuclear brinksmanship. And every time 52 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: we are told by some professor at Harvard or Yale 53 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: that used to work in the Obama administration, well, if 54 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: we just give them more incentives, more incentives. They turned 55 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 1: sanctions relief into centrifuges, They turned diplomatic patients into leverage, 56 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: and they turned engagement into never ending delay tactics like 57 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: we saw in this last round of talks, because a 58 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: regime that was literally born out of an anti American 59 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: ideology did exactly what it has always signaled it would 60 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 1: do when it was confronted. That's not shocking in fact, folks, 61 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: this is the predictable end. I am just shocked that 62 00:04:54,400 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: took this long. You don't chant death to America forty 63 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: four years and then all of a sudden get offended 64 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: when America actually takes you seriously. And here's the key. 65 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: This is not escalation, this is deterrence, and deterrence is clarity. 66 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: You know, under a posture of strength, adversaries, as I said, recalculate, 67 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: and under a posture of just riddles and ambiguity, adversaries 68 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: experiment and they are emboldened. And Iran chose the hard 69 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: way and they chose confrontation, and now the region is 70 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: absorbing the consequences figuratively and quite literally. Also had the 71 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: State of the Union this week, pretty good address. I think, 72 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,799 Speaker 1: border energy, national security, American resolve, America kicking the crap 73 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: out of everybody in the Olympics. And again you don't 74 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: have to love every sentence. I mean here's a shock. 75 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: I didn't love every sentence. But what you don't do 76 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: if you're serious about governing, and we all know that 77 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: most of the hard left is not serious about governing 78 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: is turn it into political theater. And leftists just cannot 79 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: whether it's kneeling with a dashiki outside the Capitol, as 80 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: we saw all of the congressional Democrats do after the 81 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: murder of George Floyd, they just can't help but turn 82 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: things into theater. And yet here we are ilhan Omar 83 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: Rashida Talib, which, by the way, my condolence is to them, 84 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: one of their favorite religious figures is dead. What do 85 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: we get from them? We get heckling, heckling during a 86 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: speech about American strength while Americans are being absolutely targeted. 87 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: I mean, let's just let's walk through this. Let's do 88 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: the fake you know, leftist reaction. Oh well, they're just 89 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: speaking truth to power. No, you're performing for social media 90 00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: as always. That's why you continually and repeatedly keep losing elections, 91 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: because it's all performance. You're all disgruntled theater kids. Like 92 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 1: there's a difference between principal disagreement and adolescent disruption and 93 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: what we saw in the State of the Union from 94 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: those two clowns was adolescent disruption. It was me and 95 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: a class at elder just yelling at the teacher, just 96 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: for laughs. So if you can't sit still for a 97 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: constitutional address the same way I couldn't sit still for 98 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: a lecture about mitochondria without inserting yourself into the camera frame, 99 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 1: you're not defending democracy. You're just auditioning for your fans 100 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: on Twitter. And the deeper issue is there is a 101 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: large faction in American politics. I think on both sides 102 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: that's more comfortable critiquing American strength rather than just confronting 103 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: full blown or full blown foreign aggression. And it seems 104 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 1: like it's a knee jerk, like it's an instant and 105 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: if that's your default reflex, that's very dangerous and you 106 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: probably shouldn't be in American politics because adversaries, especially ones 107 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: like the now deceased Ali Hamani, don't see nuance. They 108 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: see division, they see weakness, and they see opportunity and 109 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 1: from there tonight we'll bring it all home, folks. Nine 110 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: people injured in a mass shooting in Cincinnati is somebody 111 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: who works in the criminal justice system and was raised 112 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: by people that worked in the criminal justice system and 113 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: continues to live with people who work in the criminal 114 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 1: justice system. It's frustrating because we see statistics, and as 115 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: a society, we see statistics and individuals involved with this stuff. 116 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: And obviously the individuals that are affected by this stuff 117 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: are not statistics. These are people with families and lives, 118 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: and although thank god, nobody here is dead, these lives 119 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: are permanently altered. And what do we get We saw 120 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: it a few hours ago from Sheryl Long and have 121 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: teb Purevoult. What do we get from city leadership? The 122 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: same standard template we got after whatever festival was downtown 123 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: where we had that massive melee. It was the same 124 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 1: standard template. We're deeply concerned. You know, gun violence is 125 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: a complicated problem, and programs and wonderful. Okay, now what, 126 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: like you read the same script that you and essentially 127 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: every other leftist mayor in the city that are in 128 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: cities across America that is just plagued by gun violence. 129 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: You've just read the same script. Now what because unlike 130 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 1: you know, heckling the President during the State of the 131 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: Union speech, like, public safety is not a hashtag, it's 132 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: not a Twitter a way to mind likes on Twitter. 133 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: It is not a press conference. It's not vibes like 134 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 1: you either deter crime or you enable it. And too 135 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 1: often in American cities, like what's happening here in Cincinnati, 136 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 1: And again I'm a defense attorney, Folks like to keep 137 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: that in mind. Enforcement has become politically inconvenient. Meanwhile, like, 138 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: victims of this stuff just continue to pile up, whether 139 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: you're a victim of your car getting getting broken into 140 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: downtown or like getting shot. Now, obviously nobody in city 141 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: government pulled the trigger here, but leadership sets the tone. 142 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:55,359 Speaker 1: I know, that's a newsflash for everybody, And leadership sets priorities, 143 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: and leadership decides whether violent offenders are aggressively pursued or 144 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: gently processed. And when violent crime continues, the public deserves 145 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: more than like esthetic outrage and press conferences. They deserve results. 146 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: Nine injured in one night is not a random cosmic event, folks. 147 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 1: Like the last year in Cincinnati with the shootings is 148 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: not like just a blip, Like this is a failure 149 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: somewhere in the chain. And each piece of the chain 150 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: just points the finger at the other. And don't get 151 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: me wrong, like the pattern is national. You know, it's 152 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: not just it's not just in Cincinnati that when consequences 153 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: shrink again, just like with Iran, boldness grows. That's true 154 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: for Tehran, it's true for street criminals in Cincinnati. The 155 00:11:55,640 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: terrence is not partisan, it is civilizational. So let's connect 156 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 1: the dots between all of this. Ron lashes out and 157 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,840 Speaker 1: Americans die. Members of Congress heckl during a speech about 158 00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: national strength and celebrating national victories like the men's hockey team, 159 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 1: nine people are shot in Cincinnati, and another like night 160 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: in like what's been a month or two, and again 161 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 1: it's it's March first. It's just to be the downtime 162 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: for for street violence. Well what do these have in common, folks, Well, 163 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: what they have in common is a test. It's a 164 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: test of whether we as just random Americans, or our 165 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: city government, or our federal government, or the representatives we 166 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: elect to Congress, whether they believe in consequences. You know, 167 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: foreign adversaries around the world, the bad actors as I 168 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: like to call them, that they test resolve. We all 169 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: have a job to do. Criminals test enforcement and you know, 170 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: idiots like Rashida Talib and ilhan Omar test our bigamy laws, 171 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: test my patience, and they also test decorum and every 172 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: time the response is hesitant, ambiguous, or performative. And each 173 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: time the tests or the response to the test is hesitant, ambiguous, 174 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,959 Speaker 1: or performative, the test gets harder. And the bottom line 175 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: is strength, whether it's strength with Islamic terrorists and those 176 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: who fund them, or strength with just absolute chaos loving 177 00:13:56,160 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: lunatics running around the city with guns. Strength prevents larger 178 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: disasters like nine people getting shot at a music venue 179 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: or things like we're seeing in the Middle East, and 180 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 1: weakness invites smaller ones that accumulate. So let's just let's 181 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: get this straight. Iran chose the hard way. They chose 182 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: ideology over peace and prosperity. They chose forced confrontation over 183 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: anything resembling cooperation. And domestically, if cities like our little 184 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: Cincinnati that we love so much, choose rhetoric like we 185 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 1: saw in these press conferences over enforcement, they're going to 186 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: get disorder. Like you don't get peace through slogans. You 187 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: don't get peace through just talking. You get peace through 188 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: credible deterrence, like clipping a guy who has gotten Americans murdered, 189 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: innocent people murdered. For the last forty four years, you 190 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: get pieced through credible deterrence like locking up gun toting criminals, 191 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: and whether that's missiles abroad or patrol cars at home. 192 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: And if this sounds blunt, good because reality it happens 193 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: to be blunt. And Americans are at risk and even 194 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: dead overseas for the last forty four years because of 195 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: this animal, and nine people are injured here at home. 196 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: I hate to say this, folks, and I feel like 197 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: the idiots lecturing about the striking or on on TV, 198 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: and the people in our city government they need to realize, 199 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: like this is real life, not an academic seminar, and 200 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: this is what governance should like should look like. So 201 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: tonight I got a few questions. Do we want strength 202 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: or soothing language? Do we want deterrence or denial? Do 203 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: we want leadership or just more performed? It's hard because 204 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: adversaries don't wait for us to get comfortable, like they 205 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: don't pause for us to have debates and put things 206 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: to a think tank. The world does not reward confusion, 207 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 1: whether it's local or on the world stage. Again, Iran 208 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: chose the hard way. So the question becomes whether America 209 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: as a whole and Cincinnati locally chooses strength. That's where 210 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 1: we begin tonight, folks, let's go. I want to hear 211 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: from you.

And just the funniest 219 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: part of all of this, if any of it's funny, 220 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: and we're going to get to the calls here in 221 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: a second, is watching the same professional foreign policy therapists 222 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: who spent decades telling us that quote engagement will moderate, 223 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 1: will moderate.

So two things like one is somebody who 314 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: lives you know, that grew up in Western Hills, grew 315 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: up in Cincinnati and lives in Claremont County now and 316 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm involved with the system and I 317 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: practice some multiple counties. One thing I can tell you 318 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: from people that are involved, you know, in law enforcement 319 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 1: and Butler Claremont County, Warren County is and again it's 320 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: it's why folks that don't live within the city of Cincinnati. 321 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 1: One of the reasons that they get mad about the 322 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 1: elections in Cincinnati. Is these folks, the leadership in Cincinnati 323 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: keeps getting re elected. The problem either gets worse, it 324 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: doesn't get better, or it gets worse. And then you 325 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: start to see he was talking about how where the 326 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: shooting is is in the city of Cincinnati, but it's 327 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: not in our you know, quote unquote inner downtown area. 328 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: Is it starts to leak out, it starts pillage. And 329 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 1: when you know, when laws are either A not enforced 330 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 1: or B not enforced, was you know, and uh effect, 331 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: it's gonna spread.

And this was like fun, this 422 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: was like Trump one oh one, Like this is when 423 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,360 Speaker 1: they should have learned this when when he he called 424 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: MS thirteen gang bangers animals, and Nancy Pelosi and the 425 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: rest of them were like basically, we're all God's children, 426 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 1: And you stop and think about it, and you're like, dude, 427 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: he just he just baited them into standing up for 428 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: MS thirteen gang bangers, you know. And I see on 429 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 1: TV today and again like it's almost like it's like 430 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: an acid trip. I'm seeing Iranian flags. Granted it's the 431 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: original old school Persian Iranian flag, which is essentially the 432 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 1: same color stripes with the Persian lion head instead of 433 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: the shia. I don't know if that's like a sword 434 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 1: and a crescent, the non theocratic flag seeing that flag 435 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: next to flags Israel flags, Stars of David, and all 436 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,639 Speaker 1: these Persian folks who likely are Muslim, they're just not 437 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: extremist Muslims celebrating with people people with Israeli flags because 438 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: the Israeli flags are out there, because this may may 439 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 1: ensure the existence of Israel for another one hundred or 440 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: two hundred years. Because it's been no secret that Iran, 441 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: other than embarrassing America, exists to literally, and they've said this, 442 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: President to president, both Iatolas have said this. They existed, 443 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: the white Israel off the face of the earth. Seeing 444 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: those folks celebrating together, right, all these Persian folks celebrating. 445 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: These Persian folks happen to be brown. And then you 446 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: see these protests no war with Iran, blah blah blah. 447 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: Like basically Trump did something shrill and scream and every 448 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: single person in the crowd is white. One of my 449 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: very very dear friends is half Irish and half Persian. 450 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: He's beside himself with joy by the way, we live 451 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: together in college, really good friend of mine. He does 452 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: not look white. He is brown because he comes from Iran. 453 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: As people come from Iran, they're Persian, they are not protesting. 454 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: So it's just Trump does something. Liberal white folks, especially 455 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: liberal white women, just down. It's just it's breathtaking to 456 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: me that you cannot celebrate the act of justice that 457 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 1: was brought to this pathetic excuse for a human being. 458 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm just going to say it. Man, who we got 459 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 1: real quick? Let's talk to Kevin and Columbus. Hey Kevin, 460 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: what's up, buddy?

If he 463 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 9: does it, then they hate it. And this Muslim Christian world, 464 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 9: this has been going on since long before the United States. 465 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 9: And Trump knows that terrorists can't be negotiated with. That 466 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 9: that includes are the southern border with who really controls Mexico? 467 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 9: Those cartoffs, right, they're terrorists. Whether it's for jee hot 468 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 9: or for financial gain or whatever. The difference is lost 469 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 9: on the victims. 470 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 4: You know you care? Now? 471 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 10: Can I ask you something? 472 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 9: You're lawyer locally with crime and guns, and we should 473 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 9: be very tough on on crimes and using a gun 474 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 9: and a crime shooting someone. We should be very tough 475 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 9: on that. I always heard Texas was, you know, historically 476 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 9: very tough on crime. And maybe some other states. That's 477 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 9: how it should be. We should not be worried about 478 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 9: someone having a piece of dope or something. I mean, 479 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 9: that's not a good thing. But unless they actually do 480 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 9: a crime or something instead of all that, all, lock 481 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 9: up someone with a piece of dope, and you know 482 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 9: that's a social problem, right you know. Yeah, but uh, 483 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 9: if they did a crime, I don't care whether they're 484 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 9: dope attic or not. 485 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: If they if they do a crime and you know. 486 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 9: Hurt someone, threatening someone. 487 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 11: That's okay. 488 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 9: There's cars even like stealing a car, and then there's 489 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 9: sticking a gun in someone's face to car jack.

It's for them that you 659 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 1: can't exist and behave the way that they have in 660 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,760 Speaker 1: the world as long as they have and be stupid, 661 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 1: I mean, and not be good at calculating this kind 662 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:13,120 Speaker 1: of stuff, right, I Mean, there's just there's no way 663 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 1: but more calls. Let's let's go to uh, Chad, Hey, Chad, 664 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: what's going on? Buddy? You're on the big one. 665 00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 13: Hey, thanks said, why listen here you said, is this 666 00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 13: is what America voted for. Iran has been doing this. 667 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 13: We all know this has never changed. We finally have 668 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 13: a president that you know, realizes the nose. You do 669 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 13: not negotiate with terrorists, You just handle it. And that's 670 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 13: what he did. And what's what's some mind boggling about 671 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 13: all this? And you gotta love Trump on this, every 672 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 13: aspect of all of this, including the state you know, 673 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 13: the Union address last week. He constantly, constantly puts the 674 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 13: bait out there for them leftists and Democrats to just 675 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,400 Speaker 13: step in it. They can't help himself. And he constantly 676 00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 13: keeps throwing them up a softball and daring them to 677 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 13: hit it, and they keep hitting it and make themselves 678 00:42:57,000 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 13: look like fools time and time again. And I love 679 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,359 Speaker 13: And now they're talking about the whole mid terms come up, 680 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,319 Speaker 13: they're going to impeach him, and this is the same 681 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 13: thing they're going over and over again. You're playing the 682 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,759 Speaker 13: same hed over and over again, and people, once you 683 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 13: keep hearing the same song over and over again, people 684 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 13: don't want to hear it. And file Americans are fed 685 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 13: up with it. And I love the fact that we 686 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 13: have Trump and whoever he's appointed next, they're just going 687 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 13: to sure that they're gonna be in office. Because again, 688 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,839 Speaker 13: with this whole Iran and everything, I wish they could 689 00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 13: just sit back and listen to themselves talked like, because 690 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,399 Speaker 13: I find it hard to believe he's left this them 691 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 13: these Iraq will left if they would hear themselves. They 692 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 13: can't honestly believe that. I think it's all because they 693 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 13: just hate Trump. It's because they hate Trump so bad 694 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,879 Speaker 13: they just don't want to pose him, even though how 695 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 13: ridiculous it sounds. 696 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's crazy. Thanks a lot, Cheed. I appreciate it. 697 00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,719 Speaker 1: That's a great call. No, and he's got it. There's 698 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: a really good He brought up a couple of thoughts 699 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 1: here man. And look, you heard me for years, time 700 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: and time again blast the Bush administration for the Iraq war, 701 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,479 Speaker 1: you know, and being somebody who graduated in the early 702 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:00,440 Speaker 1: graduated high school in the early two thousands, you know, 703 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 1: from a place like elder where a lot of our 704 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:04,719 Speaker 1: guys going to the military. I had a lot of 705 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: friends that it wasn't IEDs so to speak, that they 706 00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: were dealing with. I had a lot of friends that 707 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: were in full blown bullets whizzing past your face firefights, combat, 708 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: and I was enraged at the Bush administration for putting 709 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: them through that and such a debacle. That's the thing here. 710 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: Trump is in the driver's seat. Say what you want 711 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,960 Speaker 1: about him, but he's put on a masterclass here in 712 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,920 Speaker 1: a couple of ways. And the first being is he 713 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,600 Speaker 1: can do all of this. He has so many options 714 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: at this point. He can do what he did in Venezuela, 715 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:48,440 Speaker 1: which is make the calculation that boots on the ground 716 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,760 Speaker 1: is not worth it, which I the minute that happens 717 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,600 Speaker 1: is the minute I'm out. The minute i'm out, I 718 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 1: will That is my line. We're talking about red lines tonight. 719 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 1: You know, there's true mobilization of American and girls and 720 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:05,160 Speaker 1: kids getting off boats and going into Iran. I'm I'm 721 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 1: not okay with that unless it's to protect maybe the 722 00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: straight of horror moves if they try to shut it down, 723 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,720 Speaker 1: but that's what we're not there yet. That won't happen. 724 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 1: Our navy, I think, is too strong. But he's in 725 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 1: the driver's seat. He could leave what's left in charge 726 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,480 Speaker 1: and say all right, we're done, do not do this again, 727 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:26,279 Speaker 1: and basically just kind of like car maintenance every now 728 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 1: and again. If they start to rebuild it, send a 729 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,359 Speaker 1: few more missiles over and blow it up and say, hey, 730 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: I told you you guys can keep wasting money on this. 731 00:45:32,760 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep blowing it up. And no Americans die 732 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 1: or minimal Americans die. We've already had some deaths here. 733 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: But the point is is that you know, this can 734 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 1: be done without full scale invasion. The other is the 735 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: bank shot here, and that's something that again, love him 736 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 1: or hate him, Donald Trump is very good at Venezuela 737 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 1: and oil is now in American hands. Venezuela and oil 738 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: is a source to a lot of the bad actors 739 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: on the scene, including China. You know who else is 740 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 1: a source for our biggest adversary of China. 741 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 4: We're on. 742 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 1: And at some point in time not oil is going 743 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 1: to not be in Irani and Mola's hands. It's not 744 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: going to be in radical Islamic fundamental as terrorist regime hands. 745 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: It's going to be in either the Iranian people and 746 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:27,920 Speaker 1: who whatever they see fit to do with it their hands. 747 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 1: Whatever is so by clipping one, he weakens the other. 748 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: And I think that again, minus we've talked about it tonight. 749 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: It's a real thing. The trumpter arrangement syndrome. I think 750 00:46:41,960 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: that just objectively, if you look at this, it's not 751 00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, there's potential here. There's also potential that it 752 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 1: goes horribly wrong. It is way too early to tell here. 753 00:46:52,840 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 1: You know, this isn't one of the George W. Bush 754 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 1: on the carrier with the mission accomplished thing like that. No, 755 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,920 Speaker 1: you know, the the Trump administration has come out and 756 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: said this is going to be a few weeks. So 757 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:06,360 Speaker 1: is it very very risky? 758 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 3: Hell? 759 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: Yes do. I think it's possible to do without a 760 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 1: large scale invasion. And the good news is these preserved options. 761 00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 1: But anyway, enough for me, Let's let's go back to 762 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 1: the calls. Let's go to uh, Let's go to Ken 763 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,399 Speaker 1: and Mason. Hey, Ken, you're on the big one man. 764 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:20,399 Speaker 1: What's up, Hey, Mike? 765 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 10: How are you tonight? 766 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:22,239 Speaker 1: I'm well, how about you? 767 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:26,719 Speaker 10: Very good, Mike. Everything we're talking about tonight begins with 768 00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 10: people being completely uninformed, completely naive, and just complete stupidity. 769 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,280 Speaker 10: All of this. Mike, as you said, there's no way 770 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 10: in hell that you deal with terrorists. These people, as 771 00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 10: you said earlier, was a great point. They still live 772 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:49,239 Speaker 10: in the eighteen hundreds, they still believe Genghistan can rule 773 00:47:49,239 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 10: the world. They don't even understand the concept of mutual destruction. 774 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 10: They don't understand it's impossible. You talked about Vietnam integrating 775 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,920 Speaker 10: itself into the world economy. The guys in Vietnam realized 776 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,439 Speaker 10: somebody had a brain over there. 777 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,359 Speaker 1: Communism only man, just like China, you. 778 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 10: Know, they realized, you know, this won't work the other way, 779 00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 10: you know, in Mike, at one point, I want to 780 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 10: bring up this all goes back to our educational process. 781 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 10: Right now, there's been follow ups to the North Stiles 782 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,160 Speaker 10: show story where the kids were protesting. Yeah, three the 783 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 10: kids that they've had ninety kids arrested. Now three of 784 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,799 Speaker 10: the kids have come out and said the teachers were 785 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 10: telling them to organize. The teachers kept constantly trying to 786 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:34,480 Speaker 10: recruit them to go do it. Yep, and that's you know, 787 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 10: that is all that's. 788 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 1: Again, it's it's it's one of those things, man, Ken, 789 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 1: It's one of those things. I always say it. It's 790 00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 1: shocking but not surprising. It jars you, but you're not surprised. 791 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 6: You know. 792 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:52,080 Speaker 10: Number one, for kids to school, to allow fourteen fifteen 793 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 10: six year olds go ahead. 794 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:54,839 Speaker 1: And leave, leave the buildings ahead and leave. 795 00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, can you imagine an insurance executives what 796 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 10: out their mind? 797 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 4: Right? Right? 798 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 10: I mean if a kid had got run over on 799 00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 10: Hamilton Avenue, right, I mean, you know in the superintendent said, well, 800 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 10: that wasn't our fault. They left the building, and I said, no, 801 00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 10: that's definitely your fault. 802 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 803 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,319 Speaker 10: Yeah, I said, there's a thousand attorneys. They'll tell you 804 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 10: how wrong you are right now. Yeah, but we're raising kids, 805 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,240 Speaker 10: you know, parochial school kids Mike are now scoring sixty 806 00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:26,880 Speaker 10: five percent higher on all the OHIO testing SATAC kids, 807 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,200 Speaker 10: I mean, because they're being educated. 808 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well not ken. I appreciate the call. Man, I hate, 809 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 1: I hate to cut you off, but he's he's absolutely 810 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 1: positively right about this. Man is like, we're talking about 811 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 1: dangerous organizations here, all right, Hesbela hamas uh, you know, 812 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,319 Speaker 1: the the IRGC and IRAN.

Then at 886 00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 1: eight o'clock will have our resident Democrat, Patrick Reagan to 887 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,320 Speaker 1: talk about the political We're talking about all the practical 888 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:17,480 Speaker 1: stuff here, talking about the domestic political effect that this 889 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,799 Speaker 1: will have. But before I get the calls, I got 890 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 1: to make one more point. What's so hilarious about all 891 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 1: of this, To the extent that this can be hilarious, 892 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:31,839 Speaker 1: is all of the leftist sort of Democrat Obama administration 893 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: academic posits, so to speak on this subject of Iran 894 00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: and the terrorist regime that the world's had to put 895 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: up with for the last almost fifty years, and how 896 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 1: they've been wrong about all of it, and like how 897 00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 1: that just you don't hear it? Like today the last 898 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,520 Speaker 1: few days have been awfully quiet, and one of them 899 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:57,040 Speaker 1: is that you know that the the sanctions and freezing 900 00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 1: their assets has just only hurt ordinary Iranians. Now that's 901 00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 1: like objectively true, of course, but hey, whose fault is that, 902 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:10,879 Speaker 1: Like that's the regime that prioritizes nuclear missiles over domestic prosperity, 903 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 1: Like that's their fault. Also, you can't simultaneously argue that 904 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:19,560 Speaker 1: sanctions are moral because they hurt civilians and then ignore 905 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 1: that the regime diverts all of their national money into 906 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,840 Speaker 1: proxy warfare like pick one, Like either the regime is 907 00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: responsible for its own choices or it isn't. Now, you 908 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 1: don't enrich uranium to high levels for solar panels, like 909 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: you don't bury research facilities underground for peaceful energy research, 910 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,320 Speaker 1: like you don't stone wall inspectors because you're planning to 911 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,239 Speaker 1: power hospitals. Like this was all leverage. This was all 912 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 1: strategic leverage. And what the appeasement crowd missed this entire 913 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,759 Speaker 1: time is and it's breadth, Like it's amazing, like it's 914 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 1: it's why Russia can do whatever the hell they want. 915 00:55:56,280 --> 00:56:01,279 Speaker 1: A nuclear threshold capability changes the balance of power permanently, permanently, 916 00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 1: Like if if Iran were to become a nuclear state, 917 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 1: that's it. That changes everything. It emboldens them, it emboldens proxies, 918 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:15,080 Speaker 1: It totally shields aggression i e. Invasion of Ukraine, It 919 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:18,880 Speaker 1: forces neighbors into their own nuclear pursuits I e. Ukraine 920 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 1: Like think if Iran is nuclear like and it's we talk. 921 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,080 Speaker 1: They all hate Jews, all right, Let's just be honest. 922 00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: Like the Iranian the sites are not big fans of Israel. 923 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 1: The Sunnis are less hatred. It seems like to me 924 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:37,880 Speaker 1: that the sunny country is over there, like Saudi Arabia, 925 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,319 Speaker 1: like the UAE, like all the predominantly sunny countries over there, 926 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:46,800 Speaker 1: hate Israel less, which is why they can take religion 927 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:50,239 Speaker 1: out of things. And when they think logically, they realize 928 00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:54,000 Speaker 1: that having Israel as an ally is logical. It's smart 929 00:56:54,120 --> 00:57:00,080 Speaker 1: on their part. And the fact that Iran is just 930 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:09,360 Speaker 1: randomly shooting at these countries is terrible. But the just 931 00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: absolute swings and misses from the academic Obama administration type 932 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 1: people on their on their Iran thing, it's just it's unbelievable. 933 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 1: And what they don't realize is that nuclear Iran means nuclear, 934 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia means nuclear UAE means everybody over there in 935 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 1: the most unstable part of the world. Uh, well, they 936 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 1: got one, so now I have to have them. I mean, 937 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: it's just and here we go again. Anyway, Sorry about that. 938 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to the calls. Let's talk to uh, Let's 939 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:42,400 Speaker 1: talk to Terry and Fairfield.

And and of course, like, look, the 1125 01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 1: War Powers Act authorizes him to act without congressional authority 1126 01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:34,439 Speaker 1: for sixty months, right, And I know you're gonna go, well, Mike, 1127 01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:38,000 Speaker 1: the Constitution, the Constitution, I get it, I completely get it. 1128 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 1: But as he said before, first and foremost, Rashida Talib, 1129 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 1: Like let's just be honest here, Rashida Talib is likely 1130 01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 1: kind of not that opposed to her wrong, Like she's 1131 01:06:56,280 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: essentially she and and Ihan Omar have essentially sympathized with Hamas, 1132 01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 1: Like she doesn't think that Israel should exist. Like there's 1133 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: a picture hanging above Rashida A to Leive's desk in 1134 01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:15,600 Speaker 1: her office in Congress that has like a map where 1135 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:19,000 Speaker 1: Israel does not exist. It's just all Palestine, Like come on, 1136 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:25,120 Speaker 1: But like these same people, there's like escalation, escalation, like 1137 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:30,160 Speaker 1: escalation from what baseline, you know what I mean, like 1138 01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 1: what are we how exactly is this escalation? Escalation from 1139 01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:39,320 Speaker 1: killing Americans NonStop, escalation from bringing down airliners, like escalation 1140 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 1: from what baseline? The last forty years were not calm. 1141 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:46,400 Speaker 1: They were low grade war. You just didn't call it 1142 01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:50,480 Speaker 1: that because Americans weren't seeing it nightly on cable news. 1143 01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:56,600 Speaker 1: Proxy attacks, IEDs, missile tests, assassination attempts, you know, on 1144 01:07:56,600 --> 01:08:01,360 Speaker 1: on dissonance abroad. That's not peace. That's these people were 1145 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 1: masters in what's called asymmetrical hostility, like you're not directly 1146 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 1: doing it, but you're doing it through proxies. The Soviet 1147 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:14,320 Speaker 1: Union was very good at that as well. And here's 1148 01:08:14,360 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 1: where from when I say the Obama administration type academic 1149 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:21,840 Speaker 1: aid eggheads, like, here's where the Trump contrast becomes totally 1150 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:27,559 Speaker 1: unavoidable under you know, the Trump reality. The postures shifted 1151 01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 1: from this what they I can only describe again it's 1152 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 1: therapeutic diplomacy to deterrent clarity, maximum pressure sanctions. Okay, that 1153 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 1: doesn't work. IRGC designated as a terrorist organization. Okay, that 1154 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 1: doesn't work. Okay, well then we're gonna kill the guy 1155 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 1: who runs the IRGC terrorist organization because sim Solmoni. And 1156 01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 1: then they back down a little bit, and again like 1157 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 1: here it goes when he killed Kasim Solamani, who everybody 1158 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:05,200 Speaker 1: said was like, that's an inch away from killing the 1159 01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 1: Supreme Leader, from killing the Ayatola, Like that's going to 1160 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 1: start World War three? Remember that? And again the whole 1161 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:21,520 Speaker 1: leftist political commentariat, the Obama you know, Yale, Harvard academic 1162 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, they all told us that World War three 1163 01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 1: would begin immediately as soon as that happened, and it didn't. Instead, 1164 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:33,240 Speaker 1: Aron recalculated because the terrence is psychological. This game is psychological. 1165 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 1: And when a regime believes that the cost of aggression 1166 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 1: is totally low or in some cases like no cost, 1167 01:09:40,640 --> 01:09:43,600 Speaker 1: and in some cases, like in the Obama administration, that 1168 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:50,880 Speaker 1: it'll actually pay. When a regime believes those things, aggression rises. 1169 01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:54,759 Speaker 1: I know, it's shocking. And when the contrast becomes high 1170 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:59,960 Speaker 1: and unpredictable, when the cost becomes like, dude, your leader 1171 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:05,800 Speaker 1: is dead. Aggression cools off. It's not complicated. This is 1172 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:13,040 Speaker 1: just raw bully on the block mentality. This is behavioral economics, 1173 01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 1: but with nuclear bombs and missiles. And I talked about 1174 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 1: this earlier, like why does this matter beyond the Middle East? China? China? 1175 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:29,599 Speaker 1: Because Beijing watches absolutely everything. And the way I see it, 1176 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:32,639 Speaker 1: if the United States can't enforce consequences against a regional 1177 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:36,360 Speaker 1: theocracy with a mid sized economy, what signal does that 1178 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:43,280 Speaker 1: send to a superpower with aircraft carriers. Strength in one 1179 01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:47,160 Speaker 1: theater reinforces credibility in another. Weakness in one theater invites 1180 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:53,880 Speaker 1: testing elsewhere. It's geopolitics one oh one. But yet every 1181 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 1: time America has SARTs strength and I'm not talking about 1182 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:58,479 Speaker 1: boots on the ground, I'm just talking about punching someone 1183 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,760 Speaker 1: in the mouth, we get this same recycled argument. But 1184 01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:05,519 Speaker 1: what about diplomacy, Like, here's a crazy idea. Diplomacy only 1185 01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:09,880 Speaker 1: works when both sides want peace. Iran has made very 1186 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:16,560 Speaker 1: clear they're not going to make a deal, and diplomacy 1187 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,559 Speaker 1: fails when one side only wants leverage and the regime. 1188 01:11:20,160 --> 01:11:24,760 Speaker 1: Iranian regime has consistently treated diplomacy as a tactic, not 1189 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 1: a transformation. Delay here concedes symbolically. There advanced centrifuges, quietly 1190 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:35,000 Speaker 1: fun proxies. They played the long game and the uncomfortable truth. 1191 01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:40,960 Speaker 1: Regimes built on revolutionary ideology that's based on American hatred. 1192 01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 1: They don't moderate because America is polite. So for the 1193 01:11:45,840 --> 01:11:50,280 Speaker 1: people that live in imagination land, you know, there's some reality. 1194 01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:54,759 Speaker 1: They These regimes only moderate when their survival calculus changes, 1195 01:11:54,840 --> 01:12:00,880 Speaker 1: and offing their terrorist leader forces that calculus to change. Anyway, 1196 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:03,200 Speaker 1: we're up against the break. When we come back from 1197 01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:07,400 Speaker 1: the news, we are going to bring it all home politically, 1198 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,760 Speaker 1: What does this mean for the midterms? What does this 1199 01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: mean as far as President Trump's credibility in helping Republicans 1200 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:22,040 Speaker 1: in the midterms? All that, Yeah, some logic. We've been 1201 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:24,519 Speaker 1: all fired up. Finally we're just gonna bring it all home. 1202 01:12:25,240 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 1: Let it pot simmer eventually cooled off. Mike Allen Junior 1203 01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:36,200 Speaker 1: on News Radio seven hundred WLW, Hey we're back, News 1204 01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:41,200 Speaker 1: Radio seven hundred WLW. Mike Allen Junior, Sunday Night, Round 1205 01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:45,519 Speaker 1: the Third and headed for home, folks. Hell of a 1206 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:48,080 Speaker 1: show tonight. Thanks to all the callers. Man, the lines 1207 01:12:48,160 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 1: lit up, and why wouldn't ay? The world is burning? 1208 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:57,439 Speaker 1: And I think the theme that whether it was the 1209 01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: shooting we had at the music venue here here locally, 1210 01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 1: or or what happened in Iran with Ali Holmani's death, 1211 01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:10,600 Speaker 1: and the thing that just sort of runs through the 1212 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,520 Speaker 1: vein of all of it is that clarity reduces miscalculation. 1213 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 1: And love him or hate him, Trump's style was it 1214 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 1: still remains unmistakably clear, like there's no endless red lines, 1215 01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:28,479 Speaker 1: there's no hollow ultimatums, there's no we're deeply concerned press 1216 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:32,519 Speaker 1: conferences that just here's the line and cross it at 1217 01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:37,120 Speaker 1: your own risk. And I think tonight suddenly, if they 1218 01:13:37,120 --> 01:13:40,640 Speaker 1: weren't before, adversaries like the ones in Beijing are going 1219 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 1: to start doing math again. Now there's stuff like this 1220 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:48,840 Speaker 1: guarantee piece, No, the strength guarantee guarantee piece no, but 1221 01:13:49,040 --> 01:13:51,880 Speaker 1: weakness guarantees testing. And the world is in a testing 1222 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 1: phase right now, Russia tests Europe, trying to test Taiwan. 1223 01:13:56,840 --> 01:14:00,360 Speaker 1: And the question isn't whether tension exists. The question is 1224 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:05,400 Speaker 1: whether America pretends tension doesn't exist. And Iran chose the 1225 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:09,720 Speaker 1: hard way, and the regime made that decision over four decades. 1226 01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:13,920 Speaker 1: And the question now is whether de terrence reshapes that 1227 01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:17,720 Speaker 1: calculus or whether this ideological stubbornness that we've seen from 1228 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:22,520 Speaker 1: them for nearly five decades drives them further into isolation. 1229 01:14:22,720 --> 01:14:27,680 Speaker 1: But America did not invent this confrontation. Iran did. It 1230 01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:31,439 Speaker 1: institutionalized it, it celebrated it, and it exported it through 1231 01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:35,519 Speaker 1: terrorist proxies. And I'm gonna be honest with you right now, 1232 01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:38,920 Speaker 1: it looks like the United States, although it didn't invent 1233 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: this confrontation, it may have just ended it. But there's 1234 01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 1: a long road ahead of us here to talk to 1235 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 1: us about that long road ahead. It's implications on the 1236 01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:50,959 Speaker 1: world stage as well as here locally and nationally politically. 1237 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:53,799 Speaker 1: Is my friend your friend, our friend? Or resident Democrat? 1238 01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:56,080 Speaker 1: Patrick Greagan? Patrick? How are you my friend? 1239 01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:57,599 Speaker 4: Hey? 1240 01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,280 Speaker 15: Mike, I'm calling in from outside the Taft Music DM 1241 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:02,720 Speaker 15: of our downtown. I'm at mile two of seven for 1242 01:15:02,840 --> 01:15:04,160 Speaker 15: my marathon training. 1243 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:06,120 Speaker 1: Run the night. Here you go, man, here you go? 1244 01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:08,240 Speaker 1: What So it's twenty four miles. 1245 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:11,680 Speaker 15: Huh, twenty six points. 1246 01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:13,320 Speaker 1: Of pure fun. I'm over here talking about miscalculating and 1247 01:15:13,360 --> 01:15:15,720 Speaker 1: I can't even calculate what an actual marathon is. So 1248 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 1: here we go. 1249 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 6: Man. 1250 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:22,800 Speaker 1: So initially, Patrick, you're just generally man your thoughts after 1251 01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:26,080 Speaker 1: obviously the attack on Iran and subsequently we got the 1252 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:29,759 Speaker 1: confirmation that I told Ali Hamani is dead. 1253 01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:33,840 Speaker 15: What do you think, Well, I think number one, we 1254 01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:37,840 Speaker 15: really should take our partisan blinders often looking at this situation. 1255 01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 15: I counted up before coming on tonight, and we've had 1256 01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:46,599 Speaker 15: nine presidential administrations have to deal with this murderous, sick 1257 01:15:46,800 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 15: regime in Tehran since nineteen seventy nine. 1258 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:49,800 Speaker 9: Eight. 1259 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 15: If you count Trump parts one and two is the 1260 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:55,640 Speaker 15: same administration. I tend to think they're very different. But 1261 01:15:56,080 --> 01:15:58,559 Speaker 15: this is a problem that has been on the world 1262 01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:03,440 Speaker 15: stage for nearly fifty deep years. And these guys are sickos. 1263 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:06,559 Speaker 15: The people in Tehran, they are butchers. They have blood 1264 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 15: of Americans and so many people on their hands. People 1265 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 15: from both parties have identified Iran as one of the 1266 01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 15: top state sponsors of terror. Even Kamala Harris during the 1267 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 15: twenty twenty four election, interviewed on sixty Minutes, said Iran 1268 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,519 Speaker 15: is one of our top threats around the world. So 1269 01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:26,120 Speaker 15: this is something this is something that you can find 1270 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:30,800 Speaker 15: some bipartisan consensus on Finally, these guys are sickos, They 1271 01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:34,000 Speaker 15: are dangerous, and they make the world a much less 1272 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:34,960 Speaker 15: safe place. 1273 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:36,080 Speaker 10: I mean, think of it. 1274 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:42,719 Speaker 15: Yeah, October seven, Hamas did that because Israel and Saudi 1275 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,120 Speaker 15: Arabia were very close to a peace deal. The Biden 1276 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:49,519 Speaker 15: administration was very close, and Hamas, acting as Iran's proxy, 1277 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:53,000 Speaker 15: wanted to blow that up. So these guys, they have 1278 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 15: made the world so much less safe and honestly, taking 1279 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 15: out how many, it's like taking out the trash. And 1280 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,800 Speaker 15: I think, you know, so long as this does not 1281 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:07,720 Speaker 15: become like the new Iraq, so long as the end 1282 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 15: doesn't become the queue, and we get in, we get 1283 01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 15: out hopefully to get some good better maybe some better people, 1284 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 15: and there who knows it, you know, changes by the minute, 1285 01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:19,639 Speaker 15: by the hour. But I'm also thinking right now of 1286 01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:23,719 Speaker 15: all the expats from Iran that got out shortly before 1287 01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,559 Speaker 15: the fall, right you know, they call parts of Los 1288 01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:30,879 Speaker 15: Angeles Tarandulus because there's actually a large Iranian ex pat community, 1289 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,679 Speaker 15: and I'm just thinking of them tonight. They're probably people 1290 01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:37,519 Speaker 15: that had to pack up their entire families, they're all 1291 01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:41,400 Speaker 15: their belongings and get the bleep out of Tehran right 1292 01:17:41,479 --> 01:17:44,720 Speaker 15: before it fell. I'm thinking of them tonight because they 1293 01:17:44,800 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 15: might finally get to live a little bit more freedom. 1294 01:17:47,360 --> 01:17:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Patrick, it's funny you mentioned that the first 1295 01:17:51,120 --> 01:17:53,400 Speaker 1: person that came to mind was one of my very, 1296 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 1: very dear friends. 1297 01:17:54,479 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 4: Man. 1298 01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:56,720 Speaker 1: I was living in a new city in North Carolina, 1299 01:17:57,320 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 1: only knew one person went down there to go live 1300 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 1: with my cause and go to college, and I ended 1301 01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 1: up living with this guy. He's half Irish, half Persian. 1302 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 1: And you talk about La. His dad driven out of 1303 01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 1: Iran right before the revolution, one of those ones where 1304 01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,800 Speaker 1: it was literally pack a suitcase and go, came to 1305 01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:15,880 Speaker 1: the United States with nothing. Now he owns a bunch 1306 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 1: of we he's retired now, but he sold him owned 1307 01:18:17,960 --> 01:18:21,719 Speaker 1: a bunch of dry cleaners all across LA. Great guy. 1308 01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:24,680 Speaker 1: And the minute I saw this, I sent him a 1309 01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:26,439 Speaker 1: text and I said, what do you think? And he said, 1310 01:18:27,160 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 1: I'm having trouble processing at all. I just don't want 1311 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:34,040 Speaker 1: to get my hopes up. But he and I talked, 1312 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:35,639 Speaker 1: and it's one of these things where it's like the 1313 01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 1: thought of living in a world where maybe someday you 1314 01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:43,280 Speaker 1: could take a train from Tehran to Jerusalem, is just 1315 01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 1: it's something that someone like people like you and I 1316 01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:48,840 Speaker 1: that grew up in the post nine to eleven world 1317 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,160 Speaker 1: that were you know, in their kids after nine to 1318 01:18:51,200 --> 01:18:55,320 Speaker 1: eleven just you never sought would even be a conceivable thought, 1319 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:56,479 Speaker 1: you know. Great. 1320 01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,599 Speaker 15: And the other thing is Ran before nineteen seventy nine 1321 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 15: was a very Western, very liberal. 1322 01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:06,880 Speaker 1: Country, saying that people don't realize that. 1323 01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:07,800 Speaker 15: That that kind of that, I mean, there are there 1324 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:10,880 Speaker 15: were people with such walths in Iran. I was told 1325 01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:13,840 Speaker 15: a story that there were there were people that you know, 1326 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 15: you want to get addressed, fly to Paris on your 1327 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:16,719 Speaker 15: own plane. 1328 01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,440 Speaker 2: That that was a story savon before. 1329 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 15: These extreme, deranged Sikos took over. And and it's uh, 1330 01:19:24,600 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 15: I think this is a moment where we have to 1331 01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:28,120 Speaker 15: think of those people that might finally get to live 1332 01:19:28,400 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 15: in a bit of freedom. And also let's five into 1333 01:19:31,320 --> 01:19:33,680 Speaker 15: a bit of a history lesson here, because tomorrow is 1334 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:37,160 Speaker 15: the beginning of the Jewish holiday of Plorum, celebrating the 1335 01:19:38,080 --> 01:19:44,680 Speaker 15: salvation of Jewish people from being massacred by the Persians. Yeah, Iranian, right, 1336 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:47,760 Speaker 15: the Iranian regime I've been trying to wipe Israel off 1337 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:49,800 Speaker 15: the face of the earth. So there's a little bit 1338 01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:54,599 Speaker 15: of an historic and religious and holiday sort of aspect 1339 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:57,200 Speaker 15: to this. It's really quite interesting, and it is evolving 1340 01:19:57,240 --> 01:19:57,799 Speaker 15: so fast. 1341 01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:01,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And that's That's something else that's I think 1342 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: that people don't realize, and I'm really glad that you 1343 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 1: touched on it is what Iran looked like pre revolution 1344 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,040 Speaker 1: and what it looks like now. And very rarely do 1345 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:11,479 Speaker 1: you look at something from the late seventies and go, like, 1346 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:13,360 Speaker 1: you know, what, it looks a lot better now or 1347 01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:15,679 Speaker 1: then it does now, whether. 1348 01:20:15,479 --> 01:20:21,280 Speaker 15: It's rights like fantastic. 1349 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:22,760 Speaker 1: Right, but it sort of was like a s It 1350 01:20:22,800 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: was reminds you kind of what Saudi Arabia looks like 1351 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:27,600 Speaker 1: now back then, and it was one of those I 1352 01:20:27,600 --> 01:20:29,760 Speaker 1: don't know. My point is is that I hope that 1353 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:34,879 Speaker 1: whether it's it's Iran, whether it's uh Venezuela, that somehow, 1354 01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 1: some way, you know, we can't leave that much wealth 1355 01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:41,800 Speaker 1: and oil to a communist dictator like Nicholas Maduro. We 1356 01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:44,080 Speaker 1: can't leave that sort of wealth and oil with a 1357 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 1: terrorist theocracy like the Iranian regime. It's one of those 1358 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,000 Speaker 1: things where you sort of hope that there can be 1359 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,519 Speaker 1: some sort of wealth sharing for lack of a better term, 1360 01:20:53,560 --> 01:20:56,080 Speaker 1: not to sound like a socialist, but something to where 1361 01:20:56,120 --> 01:21:00,599 Speaker 1: you can reach where you can enrich the people based 1362 01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:03,400 Speaker 1: on the land that there, that was of their ancestors 1363 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,280 Speaker 1: and their natural resources, you know what I mean, people, 1364 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:09,479 Speaker 1: not government, because that's right, because that's how we got 1365 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:11,720 Speaker 1: the revolution. At the end of the day, people say 1366 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:14,040 Speaker 1: it was all religious, and I think that that's an 1367 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 1: ignorance of history because a lot of it was pushed 1368 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,440 Speaker 1: and even the Ali Hamania, if you look at his Wikipedia, 1369 01:21:19,880 --> 01:21:23,439 Speaker 1: he was what they called a socialist Islamist. So there 1370 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,639 Speaker 1: were folks that were in the you know, they were 1371 01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:29,960 Speaker 1: pushing the Iranian revolution that were just political, not the 1372 01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,599 Speaker 1: theocratical at all, but they ended up murdered by the regime, 1373 01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:34,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's one of those 1374 01:21:34,880 --> 01:21:37,799 Speaker 1: things where it's like these people deserve for the world 1375 01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:41,000 Speaker 1: to finally get this right, you know, and. 1376 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:43,160 Speaker 15: It looks like our friends, So Saudis are helping out. 1377 01:21:43,240 --> 01:21:45,080 Speaker 15: There are quite a few of the countries in the 1378 01:21:45,120 --> 01:21:47,439 Speaker 15: Gulf that are starting to help out. Yeah, I mean 1379 01:21:47,800 --> 01:21:50,000 Speaker 15: think of it like this, as you're Saudi Arabia, you're 1380 01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,200 Speaker 15: bob raying, You're the United Air Emirates and you want 1381 01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:54,960 Speaker 15: to be able to do business and grow your economy 1382 01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 15: and get ready for a post oil world. You don't 1383 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 15: want a run out there causing chaos. They make it 1384 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,200 Speaker 15: hard to do business, and they always threaten to shut 1385 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:04,559 Speaker 15: down the straight of war movies. 1386 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:07,439 Speaker 1: Which would be devastating to everybody. 1387 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:09,200 Speaker 15: Precisely think of gas price. 1388 01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:11,960 Speaker 1: Oh my god, where to happen? Yeah, yeah, So I 1389 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 1: guess my question, and I know that we're veer and 1390 01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,480 Speaker 1: sort of out of politics but into sort of international relations. 1391 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:21,639 Speaker 1: You know, the protesters were killed there. Trump said, hey, 1392 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:26,080 Speaker 1: if you shoot and kill these these these protesters, you 1393 01:22:26,120 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 1: know you're you're You're not gonna like my response. It 1394 01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:31,559 Speaker 1: took him forever to get all of these naval assets 1395 01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:34,599 Speaker 1: over there, and I guess to that point, the reason 1396 01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:36,960 Speaker 1: he had to get all those naval assets over there 1397 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:41,680 Speaker 1: was because countries like UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman that are 1398 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:45,719 Speaker 1: predominantly Sunni, which people don't I think, really make the 1399 01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:49,720 Speaker 1: distinction between Sunni and Shia. Iran and Saudi Arabia are 1400 01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:52,839 Speaker 1: mortal enemies al much as almost as much as Iran 1401 01:22:53,000 --> 01:22:56,320 Speaker 1: is with with Israel and vice versa. So my question 1402 01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 1: is the reason we had to get these boats. There 1403 01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 1: was because these countries would not allow the United States 1404 01:23:02,200 --> 01:23:05,960 Speaker 1: to stage attacks from their on Iran from their soil, 1405 01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:10,679 Speaker 1: and there the response for their kindness was for Iran 1406 01:23:10,720 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 1: to just start blindly blowing up hotels and airports in 1407 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 1: these countries. 1408 01:23:15,160 --> 01:23:17,760 Speaker 15: Can you make rockets over to the airport? That makes 1409 01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 15: no sense? 1410 01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:19,479 Speaker 1: And that's what I was going to ask. What do 1411 01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 1: you think their logic is? Is it we're trying to 1412 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:25,280 Speaker 1: target civilian targets and it hopes that getting at international 1413 01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:28,719 Speaker 1: folks like Europeans are Americans so that maybe they'll stop, 1414 01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:31,040 Speaker 1: there'll be pressure to stop the attack. Or is this 1415 01:23:31,200 --> 01:23:33,839 Speaker 1: like something just like a child just throwing a tantrum 1416 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:35,759 Speaker 1: and throwing stuff at whoever's around. 1417 01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 15: Honestly, I think it is much more the latter. The 1418 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:44,720 Speaker 15: regime has been much more isolated over the past few years. 1419 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,080 Speaker 15: Let's let's take a little bit of a trip back. 1420 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:51,759 Speaker 15: Pamas is a little more contained these days. Has Belah 1421 01:23:52,240 --> 01:23:55,720 Speaker 15: done away with Assad in Syria, He's no longer there 1422 01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:58,880 Speaker 15: and actually looks like Sirius starting to get better. Immediately 1423 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 15: to the west, in Iraq, that country has stabilized, and 1424 01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,040 Speaker 15: Baghdad is actually a much more prosperous city, and it 1425 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:08,800 Speaker 15: has been in the past few decades. The economy in 1426 01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:12,120 Speaker 15: Iran is also quite weak, inflation, especially when you look 1427 01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:16,559 Speaker 15: at food. People cannot afford to live. They're already upset 1428 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:20,519 Speaker 15: and they're best friends are no longer in the region 1429 01:24:20,600 --> 01:24:22,240 Speaker 15: like they want for to protect them. And not to 1430 01:24:22,320 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 15: mention Russia that have been back in Iran. They are 1431 01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:28,840 Speaker 15: wasting so much, so much time. They're wasting so many 1432 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:32,559 Speaker 15: lives trying to take over Ukraine. They're overextended. The Chinese 1433 01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:35,720 Speaker 15: are much more focused on their own economy and preservation. 1434 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:39,880 Speaker 15: So Iran is isolated, and I think Saudi Arabia, the 1435 01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:42,120 Speaker 15: rest of the Arab world and the United States and 1436 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:45,840 Speaker 15: Israel saw an opportunity to finally get a bad actor out. 1437 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:49,479 Speaker 15: And reporting has also come out tonight the Crown Prince 1438 01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 15: of Saudi Arabia was instrumental in convincing Trump to go 1439 01:24:53,080 --> 01:24:54,320 Speaker 15: in to Iran. 1440 01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:57,800 Speaker 1: Wow. Wow, And again like back, we're talking about thousands. 1441 01:24:57,840 --> 01:25:01,320 Speaker 1: Here's a history here. I mean, it's I mean, you 1442 01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:05,599 Speaker 1: talk about mortal enemies with the Iranians, and that's played 1443 01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:07,320 Speaker 1: out right here in front of us. Man, And let 1444 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:09,280 Speaker 1: me ask you this, and it sort of segues into 1445 01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:10,720 Speaker 1: the state of the Union, which I want to talk 1446 01:25:10,720 --> 01:25:15,000 Speaker 1: to you about. It seems to me that that the Democrats, 1447 01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:18,400 Speaker 1: who I always talk about, are so organized. Their messaging 1448 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:22,200 Speaker 1: is always synchronized. I disagree with them, but they're a 1449 01:25:22,240 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: marvel at that guy, marvel at them when it comes 1450 01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,320 Speaker 1: to that kind of stuff. It seems like maybe they're 1451 01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:29,200 Speaker 1: they're a little confused on what the response is because 1452 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,240 Speaker 1: you know, they don't want to Obviously, they're not going 1453 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,599 Speaker 1: to say why they killed an innocent guy. You know, 1454 01:25:33,840 --> 01:25:36,280 Speaker 1: they're not going to stand up for a brutal dictator 1455 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:38,680 Speaker 1: like that. But at the same time, they're not going 1456 01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:40,639 Speaker 1: to say this is a good I mean, it seems 1457 01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:43,160 Speaker 1: to me like the argument has been sort of focused 1458 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:45,600 Speaker 1: on a legal and constitutional basis that whether or not 1459 01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:48,920 Speaker 1: the president has the authority to do this. But I 1460 01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:52,640 Speaker 1: guess what say you as far as what the Democrats' 1461 01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:56,000 Speaker 1: responses to this and what what should it be? And 1462 01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 1: then sort of segueing into the state of the Union, 1463 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, do you think that them pushing back 1464 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:04,879 Speaker 1: on some of that and the reactions with not standing 1465 01:26:04,920 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 1: and all that sort of fared well. 1466 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:12,519 Speaker 15: I think when it comes to democratic response to these 1467 01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:14,920 Speaker 15: strikes in Iran, we need to take a deep breath, 1468 01:26:15,240 --> 01:26:18,080 Speaker 15: see how the situation evolves, give it a few days, 1469 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 15: because knee jerk reactions don't often pay off too well. 1470 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:27,680 Speaker 15: Precise and foreign policies the other The president has a 1471 01:26:27,720 --> 01:26:30,400 Speaker 15: four year administration, whether they get one term or two, 1472 01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 15: and these conflicts have gone on for thousands of years 1473 01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 15: and presidents of both parties have dealt with them. Foreign 1474 01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:40,720 Speaker 15: policy is hard to jam into the partisan binary that 1475 01:26:40,840 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 15: we have in this country. It's not always red or blue. 1476 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 15: So as a Democrat and personally it's a little more 1477 01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:50,320 Speaker 15: of a hawk on foreign policy. I just happen to 1478 01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:53,280 Speaker 15: think that when you let bad actors like that fester 1479 01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:57,120 Speaker 15: or bad things happen. Putin went into crime in twenty 1480 01:26:57,240 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 15: fourteen with virtually no consequences. Twenty twenty two, he was 1481 01:27:01,320 --> 01:27:04,360 Speaker 15: already trying to take over Ukraine. These people see how 1482 01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:06,439 Speaker 15: we react, and we have to We have to be strong, 1483 01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 15: appropriately strong, obviously work well with our friends and allies, 1484 01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:12,400 Speaker 15: something that we frankly have not done as well over 1485 01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:14,479 Speaker 15: the past few years. But I would say to my 1486 01:27:14,520 --> 01:27:18,759 Speaker 15: fellow Democrats, just take a deep breath and let's assess 1487 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:21,559 Speaker 15: let's just make sure that we respond in a way 1488 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:25,400 Speaker 15: that thinks long term. It's oriented towards freedom and democracy 1489 01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 15: and some of our humanitarian goals and as it relates. 1490 01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 1: To the state of the year. 1491 01:27:29,720 --> 01:27:35,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, two hours really, really, Donald, We're going to be honest. 1492 01:27:35,080 --> 01:27:37,920 Speaker 1: It didn't feel like it. I don't know why. Maybe 1493 01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:40,439 Speaker 1: I was just running around busy and just listening to it. 1494 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 15: But I mean, the Gettysburg address was a paragraph. 1495 01:27:44,160 --> 01:27:48,080 Speaker 1: Donald, Well, let me ask you this, and I do 1496 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:50,479 Speaker 1: think that there was you and I. That's what makes 1497 01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:52,680 Speaker 1: you and I work really well together. Patrick is like, 1498 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:55,080 Speaker 1: we do this for love of the game. We can 1499 01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:57,680 Speaker 1: separate our ideology stuff and just be like, that is 1500 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:01,880 Speaker 1: politically brilliant. I have to say to stand up if 1501 01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 1: parts of the State of the Union, I think we're 1502 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 1: politically brilliant. 1503 01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:08,880 Speaker 15: What do you think, Well, it's playing a gotcha moment. 1504 01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:12,719 Speaker 15: I'm sure the Republican Nationals camp is senatorial and congressional 1505 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:14,000 Speaker 15: committees they're probably cutting ads. 1506 01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:17,719 Speaker 1: Patrick, he was less than twenty four hours later, literally 1507 01:28:17,840 --> 01:28:19,240 Speaker 1: less than twenty four hours later. 1508 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,679 Speaker 15: The thing is is Donald Trump has been doing TV 1509 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:27,600 Speaker 15: for a very long time. He understands how to manipulate 1510 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:31,360 Speaker 15: and play with media, and the faster Democrats learn that, 1511 01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:34,960 Speaker 15: and look, just stand stand up, sit down. She's done. 1512 01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:38,400 Speaker 15: Get in, get out, because you know he's manipulating you. 1513 01:28:38,640 --> 01:28:41,200 Speaker 15: You know he's playing you, So do not give him 1514 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:44,000 Speaker 15: the material to work with. It just makes your job 1515 01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 15: a lot harder. And it's get in, you get out. 1516 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:49,200 Speaker 15: You can go straight to bed. I don't know, poor 1517 01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,200 Speaker 15: Glass White, do whatever you need to recover, because honestly, 1518 01:28:52,360 --> 01:28:53,920 Speaker 15: I took a deep breath after watching that. 1519 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 1: That was two hours. That was a lot. 1520 01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:57,360 Speaker 6: And yeah, you're drinking. 1521 01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:01,040 Speaker 1: You're drinking from a fire hose man. God. 1522 01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:01,519 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1523 01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:04,200 Speaker 15: But even on a even on just a simple optics 1524 01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 15: I would have done maybe forty five minutes in and 1525 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 15: out and at the end, do all the awards and 1526 01:29:10,720 --> 01:29:13,200 Speaker 15: have the members the military and people getting awards come 1527 01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:15,080 Speaker 15: down to the House floor to receive them. That way, 1528 01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:16,920 Speaker 15: it's about them, it's not about Donald. 1529 01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 1: A very good point. That's a really good point, man. 1530 01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,960 Speaker 1: And I guess I guess to that, to that whole thing, 1531 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:24,280 Speaker 1: and and I you know, we only got a minute here, 1532 01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:27,640 Speaker 1: But I I thought at the beginning of it, you know, 1533 01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:29,679 Speaker 1: when people were saying, I'm not going I'm not going. 1534 01:29:29,760 --> 01:29:32,559 Speaker 1: I was like, that's what a terrible, terrible idea, and 1535 01:29:32,600 --> 01:29:34,840 Speaker 1: then after watching it, I was like, that's that was 1536 01:29:34,880 --> 01:29:37,280 Speaker 1: actually very smart, you know what I mean. It was 1537 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:39,000 Speaker 1: one of those things where, once you watch it play 1538 01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:42,840 Speaker 1: out in practice, I went, yeah, because if I'm in 1539 01:29:42,880 --> 01:29:46,040 Speaker 1: a moderate district, just having my face you know, happened 1540 01:29:46,120 --> 01:29:49,120 Speaker 1: possibly be on camera right after after the you know, 1541 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:51,800 Speaker 1: the Rashida to leave and ilhan Omar thing, I would 1542 01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:54,040 Speaker 1: have been like, maybe I shouldn't have come, you know 1543 01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:54,519 Speaker 1: what I mean. 1544 01:29:55,520 --> 01:29:57,880 Speaker 15: It's kind of like the snake handling pastors that think 1545 01:29:57,920 --> 01:29:59,519 Speaker 15: they're not going to get there, and then they get 1546 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:02,120 Speaker 15: when you go when you still play with Donald Trump 1547 01:30:02,160 --> 01:30:04,559 Speaker 15: in the media, she's gonna bite you.
