At least that is what democrats like Elizabeth 64 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: Warren fo Cohuntis herself have wanted you to believe. 65 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 3: Caring for people was at the core of who he was. 66 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 3: He was incapable of causing harm. Alex carried patience, compassion, 67 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: and calm as a steady light within him. Even at 68 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: the very end, that light was there. I recognized his 69 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 3: familiar stillness and signature calm composure. 70 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 1: Yes, if there's anything we know about Alex Pretty, especially 71 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: in his last moments, he was very still and very calm. 72 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: That maudlin pap on the floor of the Senate actually 73 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: paled in comparison to left winger Anna Navarro on CNN 74 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 1: two nights ago. 75 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 4: They killed the wrong guy, right, because this is like 76 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 4: the perfect guy. Alex Pretty is the guy you'd want 77 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 4: to date your daughter, the guy you'd want your son 78 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 4: to grow up to be a decent human being, who 79 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 4: was serving humanity, serving sick veterans. 80 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: Who is there is nothing. 81 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 4: That has been said about that man that isn't wonderful, 82 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 4: and so they can't malign him. They can't malign him 83 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 4: because we have the videos. 84 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: We do. We do have the videos, including this new 85 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: one from January thirteenth, of Alex Pretty spitting on an 86 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: ICE agent's car and then kicking it, taking out a 87 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: rear tail light. This prompted an ICE agent to jump 88 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: out to try to take Preddy into custody. He got 89 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: so violent while armed that it actually took five different 90 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 1: law enforcement agents to take him down. This was about 91 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,799 Speaker 1: a week and a half before another confrontation in which 92 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 1: Pretty was shot and killed. Now, in this audio that 93 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: we're about to play, I do hope that I was 94 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 1: able to bleep out all of the swear words. If not, 95 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: it's very chaotic. You can see horns, you can hear 96 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 1: their stupid whistles. I apologize, and I hope the FCC 97 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: will forgive me. What you will hear is Alex Pretty 98 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: screaming assault me, mother, bleeper, assault me. It's perfect guy. 99 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: On Monday night, at the Green Bay School District Board meeting, 100 00:06:55,320 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: board president James Lyarley actually paused for a moment to 101 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: honor the life of Alex Pretty, who was a graduate 102 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: some years ago of Green Bay Preble High School. 103 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 5: Before we reconvene into open session, we're going to take 104 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 5: a pause for a moment of silence to remember and 105 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 5: honor the life of Alex Pretty, a two thousand and 106 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 5: six graduate of Preble High School. 107 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: Alex was described by his. 108 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 5: Family and friends as conscientious, civic minded individual who cared 109 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 5: for veterans, his community, and the people around him. His 110 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 5: life reflects the values that we strive to instill in 111 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 5: our students, compassion, service, and responsibility to others. 112 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: This afternoon, I reached out to mister Lary to ask 113 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 1: him in the wake of the video of Alex Pretty 114 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: being incredibly unhinged and violently assaulting law enforcement officers. Yes, 115 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: an attack on a law enforcement officers car is, in 116 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: fact obstruction of federal primer. It is a federal crime. 117 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: Alex Pretty screaming at, spitting on and then violently resisting arrest, 118 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: all of these are federal crimes. I actually reached out 119 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: to mister Liarly and asked him, hey, I attached the 120 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: videos so he couldn't say, hey, I didn't see this video. 121 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: I asked him, do you stand by your statement that 122 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: Alex Pretty reflected the values that you want to see 123 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: in your Green Bay students. This is the president of 124 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: the school board in Green Bay. Now, before you say well, Dan, 125 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: he said this days before this new video surface. And 126 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: it should be noted that this was January thirteenth, not 127 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: January twenty fourth, the day that Preddy was shot and 128 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: killed Saturday morning by Border patrol agents. These weren't even 129 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: Ice agents. Now why this is relevant is a It 130 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: absolutely destroys the narrative that the Left always tries to 131 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: build up that people who are objectively not good are 132 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: in fact saints, and the people who are just sort 133 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: of trying to keep the peace, law enforcement officers who 134 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,839 Speaker 1: do have a lawful authority to enforce border law and 135 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: enforce immigration law, they are in fact Nazis. I mean, 136 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: we put together an entire montage of Democrats calling Ice 137 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: agents Nazis, comparing them to slave catchers. On Sunday, the 138 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: day after Preddy was shot. You even had the governor 139 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: of Minnesota, the buffoon Tim Walls, coming out and saying, yeah, 140 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: we all read that book by Ann Frank. Someday a 141 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: little girl is going to write the Diary of Minneapolis 142 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 1: about what's going on today, even the Holocaust Museum got 143 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: involved and said, hey, that is like way out of whack. 144 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 1: Not to be outdone, you had Stephen Colbert on his 145 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: little watched show this week say, look, you can't compare 146 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: ICE agents to the SS. The Nazis at least showed 147 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: their faces heavily implying that ICE agents are worse than 148 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: the Nazis. This is where we're at. And people like 149 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 1: Alex Preddi, who, let's face it, along with Renee Good, 150 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: had a little bit of a screw loose and were 151 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: very obviously going out to try to confront federal agents 152 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: because they were hearing this rhetoric, they were internalizing it, 153 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: they believed it with every fiber of their being, and 154 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: they were trying to fight Nazis. They were trying to 155 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: hunt down evil. They were standing on the side of 156 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: the ultimate good against what they perceived to be and 157 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: what they have been propagandized to believe was the ultimate evil. 158 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: This is why this ongoing rhetoric Trump is Hitler, Ice 159 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: is Nazis is so incredibly dangerous. It doesn't just put 160 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: President Trump and Charlie Kirk and everybody else who's even 161 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: a little bit right of center in the literal crosshairs 162 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: of deranged would be assassins or people who have no 163 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: compunction about being extremely violent. It also rallies people who 164 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: like Alex Preddy, even though he went very armed into 165 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: confrontations with ICE agents on at least two separate occasions, 166 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: including the one in which he was shot to death, 167 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: who may or may not have any intention of being 168 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: incredibly violent, they are still whipped into a frenzy and 169 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: they make it utterly impossible for laws to be enforced 170 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: here in this country. And what's the most dangerous aspect 171 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: of this is that this isn't a bug of Democrat 172 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: rhetoric and Democrat political strategy. It is a feature. This 173 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: is why you're seeing these training sessions go on all 174 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: across the country, including here in Wisconsin. In fact, I 175 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: dare say here on the Dan O'Donnell Show, we were 176 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: among the first in early December to report on what 177 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: was going on, that these people are actually getting trained 178 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: to go and not just observe ICE, not just verify 179 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:22,479 Speaker 1: that ICE agents are in an area conducting deportation operations. 180 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: The entire point is what we're seeing in Minneapolis, to 181 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: go and to confront and to make it impossible for 182 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: ICE agents to do their job. In fact, the very 183 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: fact of someone going to verify that ICE is there 184 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 1: and to warn the potential subjects of a valid deportation 185 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: operation who have valid, yes administrative, or judicial warrants in 186 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 1: order to do what they do in order to take 187 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: these people into custody. That is obstruction of federal process. 188 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: That is, it's a very very serious crime. As now, 189 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: former Milwaukee County Circuit Court judge had a Dugan discovered 190 00:13:10,040 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: in the harshest possible way with a federal criminal conviction. 191 00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: This is why also I am making it my personal 192 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: mission to try to make sure that there aren't these 193 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: sort of violent confrontations here in Wisconsin. And let's be 194 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: abundantly clear here, there is no evidence, not at all, 195 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: that ICE is going to do massive operations the likes 196 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: of which we're seeing in Minneapolis. Nonetheless, I don't want 197 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: any of these sorts of violent confrontations. I don't want 198 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: this sort of panic in the streets that is leading 199 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: to these confrontations. And that's why I am repeatedly imploring 200 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: my listeners to do what they can and to clog 201 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: the ICE verifier hotline that the radical leftist socialist group 202 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: Vosas de la Frontera has put out to make sure 203 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: that we are reporting where we have seen ice, Like 204 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: maybe we've seen ice at every taco bell from here 205 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: to eau Claire. Call Bo, says de la Fronterra. Get 206 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: some ice verifiers out on the street, make sure they 207 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: are going to the farthest flung places in Wisconsin. All 208 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: you need to do is call them out there. One 209 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: eight hundred four to two seven zero two one three. 210 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 1: Just that easy. Now, I would hate for there to 211 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: be some sort of confrontation, So I want to make 212 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: sure that these highly trained people are getting out there 213 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: to make sure that ice is say, I don't know 214 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: where can we put them? Where do you think? In fact, 215 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: I would love if you could text, if you could 216 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 1: text some of the most random places in Wiscon oh oh, oh, 217 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: oh oh. How about this House on the Rock, House 218 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: on the Rock, in the weird dollroom. At the House 219 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: on the Rock, I think I saw a whole bunch 220 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: of ice agents. We should probably get some verifiers there. 221 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: Get all the way out to House on the Rock. 222 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: You know. I actually, while we're out that way, I 223 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: think I saw I think I saw some ICE agents 224 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: at the very top of the plunge at Noah's Ark. Yeah, 225 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: I know, I know, it's close. It's weird. It's weird 226 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: that ICE would be conducting operations at the very top 227 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,600 Speaker 1: of a tall water slide. But hey, I mean, we 228 00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: need to verify that they're actually there. So if you 229 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: could call one eight hundred four to two seven zero 230 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: two one three, I think it would go a long 231 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: way to make sure that we are getting trained professional 232 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: people out there. Big exclusive story coming up next, welcome 233 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: back to it. This is Alex pretty January thirteenth, it 234 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: is confirmed to be him. His family did confirm yes, 235 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: this is Alex, and now we know, by the way, 236 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: why his parents were telling him, Okay, go protest, but 237 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: please don't get into any confrontations with ICE agents. It's 238 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: because he was getting into confrontations with ICE agents. In fact, 239 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: there is reporting that he actually quit his job as 240 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: a VA nurse in order to basically try to impede 241 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: and obstruct and get in the faces of ICE agents 242 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: full time. That's exactly what he was doing on January thirteenth, 243 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: about eleven days before he was killed in yet another 244 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:26,479 Speaker 1: confrontation with ICE agents that pop you heard that bang. 245 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,439 Speaker 1: That was him kicking the tail light out of a car. Now, 246 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: the BBC, citing an independent news agency which found the footage, 247 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 1: posted another video angle of that. Now, because this news 248 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: agency has the same initials t n M as an 249 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: AI company, would you believe liberals believe that this is 250 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: actually an AI video. TNM stands for the News Movement. 251 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: There is another AI company called TNM. It's not that 252 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 1: TNM is the News Movement. In fact, the narrator of 253 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: the BBC video even says, the News movement brought us 254 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: this video of Alex pretty attacking this cop card. You 255 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: can see he kicks out the tail light clear as 256 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: a bell. He is then an agent gets out of 257 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: the vehicle and tackles him to the ground and he 258 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: is taken into custody. Now, a lot of people are asking, hey, 259 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: why didn't he face serious criminal charges? Why was he 260 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: still out on the street. If he wasn't, if he 261 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: was locked up where he should have been for committing 262 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: any number of federal crimes, he wouldn't have been on 263 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 1: the streets. He would have been able to be killed. 264 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 1: His life might have actually been spared. Now, another thing 265 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 1: that people are saying about this newly released video is 266 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: that it's somehow not relevant that eleven days earlier him 267 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: getting very violent while armed, and it should be made 268 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: abundantly clear he had his gun that sig sour, which 269 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: may or may not have gone off accidentally during the 270 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 1: confrontation with ICE agents with Border Patrol agents that led 271 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: to his death. It should be noted that this is 272 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: very germane to the confrontation that ended his life. It 273 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: indicates that he was not merely there. He was not 274 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: merely on the scene to what was the initial story. 275 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: While he was just helping a woman who had fallen 276 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,439 Speaker 1: down and he was just a bystander. He just happened 277 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: to be there. And he's a nurse, you see, he's 278 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: a VA nurse. This is what he does. He's such 279 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: a good man that he had to help people. And 280 00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: that's exactly what he was doing. He was helping people 281 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: who are being victimized by those wicked ICE agents. No, 282 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: he was there because he was there following agents for 283 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: days and what we're now knowing to be weeks what 284 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: has been revealed to be weeks and weeks and weeks. 285 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: He was one of these Ice verifiers who is not 286 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: merely peacefully taking down license plates and not merely taking 287 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: a look at what ICE is doing and reporting back 288 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: and just blowing their stupid little whistles. They are actually 289 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: trying their best to stop ICE deportation raids. This, by 290 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 1: the way, is why all of our listeners need to 291 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: take some time to call one eight hundred four to 292 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: two seven zero two one three to make sure that 293 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 1: we get some of these highly trained, highly specialized ICE 294 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 1: verifiers out to some of the most random locations in 295 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: Wisconsin just to make sure, just to make sure that 296 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 1: there aren't any ICE agents where you know, they could be. 297 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: They could be arresting people, they could be brutalizing people. 298 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: After all, according to Stephen Colbert, they're they're every bit 299 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: as bad as the Nazis, if not worse, because the 300 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: Nazis didn't even cover up their their faces. So we 301 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,600 Speaker 1: want to make sure that all of these left wing 302 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 1: radicals are going out to verify ICE's presence. And that's 303 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,239 Speaker 1: why you need to call one eight hundred and four 304 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: to two seven zero two one three. If pretty who 305 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: was again armed, was showing up at locations with the 306 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: express purpose of assaulting law enforcement agents or the express 307 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: purpose of interfering with law enforcement deployment and action. Then 308 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: it can be reasonably assumed that he was also there 309 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 1: on the day he was killed Saturday morning to obstruct ice. Now, again, 310 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:56,679 Speaker 1: why he was there doesn't necessarily matter in terms of 311 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: the calculus of whether or not the shooting of him justified. 312 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: All that matters. The only standard that matters. Remember, according 313 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,719 Speaker 1: to federal law, according to established Supreme Court precedent, and 314 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:14,439 Speaker 1: according to every accepted law enforcement standard of use of force. 315 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: The only standard that matters is did the agent did 316 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 1: a reasonable agent any reasonable law enforcement officer put in 317 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: that exact same scenario, would he have a reasonable belief 318 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: that there would be imminent death or substantial bodily harm 319 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: if he did not use deadly force. If a reasonable 320 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: officer could conclude that death or substantial bodily harm was imminent, 321 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: then deadly force is authorized. Rather obviously, there was a 322 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: gun that was established by another officer when Pretty was 323 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 1: being taken down and arrested, yelling gun, gun, gun, There 324 00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: was some gun shot, then went off, and then was 325 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: shot ten times. Preddy can be seen on his arrest 326 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 1: video appearing to lunge into his pants towards his holster 327 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: or towards his waistband, where an officer who has already 328 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: remember established that a gun is on this subject, or 329 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: at least at one point was on the subject. Whether 330 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: or not the gun is still on the subject, the 331 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: officer has a millisecond to determine whether or not it 332 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 1: is reasonable to conclude that that guy is going for 333 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: a gun, and if he gets it, every officer on 334 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,959 Speaker 1: the scene could be dead in the next three or 335 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: four milliseconds. He's got act. What the prior arrest video 336 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: of Preddi proves is that he was going and intending 337 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: to cause harm to law enforcement agents. I don't know 338 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: any innocent bystanders who get so worked up that they 339 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: spit on a law enforcement officer's car and then kick 340 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 1: out a tail light. Apparently the five agents it took 341 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 1: to take down Alex pretty broke his rip. Now, this 342 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: also potentially establishes a motive for him to continue to 343 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 1: go out and to try to stalk and harass officers. 344 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: That he's so ticked off that they got him last 345 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: time that he is now bound and determined to get 346 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: them this time. That would be backed up by the 347 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 1: fact that not only was he carrying a sig sour. 348 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,200 Speaker 1: He also had a whole ton of extra ammunition. All right, 349 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: I promised an exclusive story. We are going to get 350 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: you one. A middle school in the Milwaukee area not 351 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: only showing video of Alex Pretti's death, but propagandizing students, 352 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: middle schoolers, kids as young as sixth grade to write 353 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 1: anti ICE letters to Congress and the mayor. We'll get 354 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: to that coming up next. Classical conservatism contemporary style. It 355 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: is the Dan o'donald show. Become back to it. Whitman 356 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: Middle School in Wohahtosa is apparently propagandizing its students. I 357 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,360 Speaker 1: received the following email from a listener this week. Hello, Dan, 358 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 1: my daughter is in, he says the grade I've redacted 359 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: that at Witman Middle School in Woahwatosa. She came home 360 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: today to explain that her teachers, yes more than one, 361 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 1: have been bringing up the most recent shooting of the 362 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: nurse that is Alex, pretty encouraging her and all students 363 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: to write to the mayor and Congress to show outrage 364 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 1: against Ice. In other words, in doctrination. She feels scared 365 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: if she speaks on behalf of ICE or law enforcement. 366 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 1: I'd like to put out in a public forum, and 367 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: I will also be contacting the school myself for a 368 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: better understanding of what the goal is with these talks 369 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: during a time that should be spent on her education. 370 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: They even had shown the video of the incident along 371 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 1: with bringing up Renee Good. I'd love to get this 372 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 1: to as many folks to stand up against this in schools. 373 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: For the record, I love the show and very much 374 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: appreciate you, sincerely, and then the parent signs their name. 375 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: This is not the first time apparently that there has 376 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: been an issue recently with class time being used on 377 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 1: things other than education. January twenty first, that would be 378 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,439 Speaker 1: I believe Martin Luther King Junior Day, or it was 379 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: immediately after there was a peace walk where students at 380 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: Whitman actually walked out of school. It was a walk 381 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,479 Speaker 1: for peace. According to a flyers sent home to parents, 382 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 1: our school will be participating in a walk for peace 383 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,360 Speaker 1: on January twenty first. A peace walk is an opportunity 384 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: for the community to unify while raising awareness for peace, 385 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: justice and non violence. And then they give some suggestions 386 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: on what signs to bring. Optional enhancements, add color or 387 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 1: symbols that represent peace, unity or hope. Include a meaningful 388 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: word or phrase. Examples, given, justice, kindness, equality, Carefully incorporate 389 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: a short MLK quote with quotation marks. What is the 390 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: purpose of this exactly? Now? I know what the purpose 391 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:37,720 Speaker 1: of the Renee Good alex Pretty walkout is. And in fact, 392 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 1: there are a good number of schools that are going 393 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: to be at least in part taking part in this 394 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: national boycott Day or whatever it's called tomorrow, in which 395 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: they're going to try to harm as many local businesses 396 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: as possible. Don't go to school, don't go to work, 397 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: don't go to anything, don't spend any money. This is 398 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: one of those left wing things that what it does 399 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: is it makes powerless impotent people feel powerful and like 400 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: they're doing something so of course destructive, but that's sort 401 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: of the point. Now. After I posted this story about 402 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: the indoctrination at Whitman Middle School, I received an email 403 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: from someone who has a connection to the school. Hello Dan, 404 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: Unfortunately this is not Whitman Middle School's first issue with 405 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: teaching what to think versus how Shortly after President Trump 406 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: won the election back in twenty twenty four, my granddaughter 407 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: came home upset, stating a teacher then sixth grade was 408 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: crying in class over the outcome and encourage kids to 409 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: express their feelings on the school collaboration board. My daughter 410 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: sent me pictures that her kids drew or posted that 411 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: reflected violent actions toward President Trump. She hesitantly she did 412 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: not want her daughter treated poorly by her teacher for reporting. 413 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: She was talking about her daughter, not the granddaughter. Hesitantly 414 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: contacted school officials and they said they would look into it. 415 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,719 Speaker 1: It went nowhere, and my granddaughter felt the teacher treated 416 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: her differently after that. They are a team principle on 417 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: down to teacher and have each other's backs versus addressing 418 00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: and teaching. All opinions matter, not just theirs. And she said, 419 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: afraid to comment on your chat to keep my daughter 420 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: and granddaughter from harassment as a result of this. Sad, 421 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: probably smart because for whatever reason, I think I have 422 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: tripped the Facebook algorithm and pretty much everything I post 423 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: is getting hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of shares and 424 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: thousands of common It's from the most unhinged psychopathic leftists 425 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: that you have ever heard. I'm looking at my Facebook 426 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:12,959 Speaker 1: messages right now. Each bleep, you bleeping wire. You're a 427 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: real bleephead, ain't you you're a F word that means 428 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: a well, I guess what is that? A bundle of sticks? 429 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: But it's used in this case as a slang term 430 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: for a gay male. Those are simply messages that I 431 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: have gotten one thirty five, one forty and two eighteen PM. 432 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: So probably smart by our source here saying that political 433 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: indoctrination is sort of the way of the world at 434 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 1: Whitman Middle School. And this is this is hardly by 435 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: the way I did reach out to the Wahwatosa School District. 436 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm taking a wild guess I am not going to 437 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: hear back, just as I have not yet heard back 438 00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: from uh the president of the school board in Green 439 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: Bay saying Alex pretty is exactly the sort of guy 440 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: that we want our kids to grow up to be. 441 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 6: Like. 442 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 1: Coming up later on in the Dan o'donald's show, how 443 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: exactly did a picture of us swastika make it into 444 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: a picture that the Journal Sentinel posted of one of 445 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: those ice out high school walkouts. We'll get into that 446 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: and much more here on the Dan o'donald show. Democrats 447 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 1: absolutely are going to shut down the government, or at 448 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: least they're going to try to. Wisconsin Senator Tammy Baldwin 449 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 1: among them because they don't want immigration enforcement. It has 450 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: nothing to do with ICE's tactics. It has nothing to 451 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 1: do with Ice itself. It has everything to do with 452 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: the fact that Democrats realize now that they need illegal 453 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: immigrants to gain and maintain political power in this country. 454 00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: Do you realize that if we counted only America and 455 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: citizens for the purposes of the census and every ten 456 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: years the reapportionment of congressional seats, California would lose somewhere 457 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: in the neighborhood of six to seven congressional seats and 458 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: also six to seven electoral votes in presidential elections in 459 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: twenty thirty. As it stands now, even counting every single 460 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: illegal in California, this state is projected to lose four. 461 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: Texas is going to gain four. Rather paradoxically, it's because 462 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 1: Austin and Dallas are growing by leaps and bounds. Austin, 463 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: especially Austin was about the size of Madison maybe fifteen 464 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: to twenty years ago. It's remarkable what that city has 465 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: been able to do. I was actually there in October 466 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 1: for my brother's bachelor party. Lives down there. He's a doctor, 467 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 1: in the University of Texas Health System and I was 468 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: down there. They got married in Mexico in December, so 469 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: I didn't get to go down there for the wedding 470 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: and absolutely fell in love with the Yes, it's liberal 471 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 1: as all hell, but it is just it's a wonderful city. 472 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: If you can get a chance to go down there 473 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: for the south By Southwest or Austin City Limits, or 474 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: one of the other big things that they do, or 475 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: just to just to go down there, it is very, 476 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: very cool. Coming up in the four o'clock hour, we 477 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: will explain exactly how Democrats have gotten themselves so dependent 478 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: upon illegal immigration and why sanctuary city policies are sort 479 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: of their key to it. We will also get into 480 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 1: an exclusive story how exactly did a picture of a 481 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: swastika end up on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinels Instagram page. 482 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 1: It was part of one of the ice out student 483 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: protests at a local high school. We'll dive into that 484 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: right now, though, it's time to name the unhinged liberal 485 00:33:51,120 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 1: of the rough is dangerous because he's evil. 486 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 7: America is. 487 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: A big fan of Breaking Bad. Everybody was a fan 488 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: of Breaking Bad that watched it. One of the best 489 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: series I think of all time, I have gotten into 490 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: near fist fights with members of my family and even 491 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: my own wife for saying it's derivative. It's completely derivative 492 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: of The Sopranos. The Sopranos was a far superior series 493 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: and Breaking Bad. I could do an entire hour of 494 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 1: how Breaking Bad is brilliant. It is a brilliant show, 495 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: but it is literally the Sopranos set in Albuquerque with 496 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: meth instead of the Mafia. But one of the best 497 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: characters on that show was the bad guy Gus Frigg, 498 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 1: played by John Carlo Esposito, who was truly terrifying. He 499 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: was fantastic in that role. Reprised it later for the 500 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: prequel series Better Call Soul. It pains me to say this, 501 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: but he is today's unhinged liberal of the day. He's 502 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:16,720 Speaker 1: on a red carpet for some award show somewhere saying 503 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,480 Speaker 1: we need an armed revolution against the white men in 504 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 1: charge of ice and the border patrol. 505 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 7: This is time for revolution, It's time for it, and 506 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 7: they don't even know that's what they're starting. You know, 507 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 7: some very rich, old white men are exerting their power 508 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 7: to suppress our own people. Thus creating a feeling of 509 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 7: civil war in the streets, preparing the hate, the haters 510 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 7: to hate, teaching them how to shoot. They're not even 511 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 7: trained right to kill. This is all a preparation for 512 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 7: a very insidious problem that's happening in our world. And 513 00:35:56,719 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 7: for me, I have to speak out that we're we 514 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 7: will not be iced out. 515 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 1: This is not going to happen. They can't take us 516 00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:06,359 Speaker 1: all down. 517 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 7: If the whole world showed up on Putin's doorstep, or 518 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 7: on the iranians doorstep, or in Washington, it would They'll 519 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 7: kill a five hundred and fifty million, however, but the 520 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 7: rest of us would survive with a new Yeah, this 521 00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 7: is time for revolution. It's time for it, and they 522 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:26,320 Speaker 7: don't even know that's what they're starting. 523 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 1: You notice that John Carlow would not have been one 524 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: of the fifty million killed by Putin or the Iranians 525 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: or presumably Trump. Yeah, yeah, a bunch of people would die. 526 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: The rest of us we'd continue the revolution. In film, 527 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,440 Speaker 1: the revolution will be televised by John Carlow. Could someone 528 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: also tell him that Hispanics make up about twenty percent 529 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 1: of the American population, They make up roughly fifty percent 530 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,160 Speaker 1: of the Border Patrol in this country, and they make 531 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: up roughly thirty three percent of all ICE agents in 532 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:13,359 Speaker 1: this country. It is not the white men controlling this agency. 533 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 1: He would be rising up against the very Hispanics that 534 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 1: he claims to be protecting. Gian Carlo Esposito, your unhinged 535 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,280 Speaker 1: liberal of the day, And yes, for those of you asking, 536 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: A lot of people have texted me, Dan, did you 537 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: hear the new Bruce Springsteen song about Minneapolis? I honestly 538 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: thought when I first heard it that it was a 539 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen ai that some random person had put together. 540 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: It is that amateurish and bad. If we have time, 541 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 1: I'll play a little bit for you and make fun 542 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 1: of it. Daily Trump Day coming up next here on 543 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:58,960 Speaker 1: the Dan o'donald show. Welcome Back Dan o'donald's show, Conservative 544 00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: Thought not just talk coming up? Was it a kid 545 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: who was doing a prank? Was it a message about 546 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: ICE agents? Why was there a swastika in a picture 547 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,680 Speaker 1: that the Journal Sentinel actually used for one of the 548 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: ice out student walkout protests in Southeast Wisconsin a couple 549 00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: of days ago. We will get to that coming up 550 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 1: in just a second. Right now, though, it is time 551 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 1: for the daily Trump day. 552 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 2: We're gonna win so much, you may even get tired 553 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 2: of winning. 554 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,600 Speaker 1: Trump just keeps winning. It is a win for the administration. 555 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 1: It's also a big win for the United States. We 556 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: have to keep winning. We have to win more. We're 557 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: gonna win Moore. President Trump this morning holding the very 558 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: first cabinet meeting of his second year in office and 559 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: saying the first year was the best first year any 560 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,720 Speaker 1: president has ever had ever. 561 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,840 Speaker 2: I think, and a lot of people say it the 562 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 2: most successful year of any administration in American history. The 563 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 2: first year has ever been the first year like this, 564 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,240 Speaker 2: including the fact that we put out extinguished eight wars 565 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: and another one we think is coming. Steve Whitcuff's working 566 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 2: very hard, and Jared and everybody else, and I think 567 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:23,160 Speaker 2: it's coming. It was just announced that the murder rate 568 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,359 Speaker 2: in our country is the biggest drop ever recorded. It's 569 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 2: at the lowest level in one hundred and twenty five years, 570 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 2: first in recorded history, it's the lowest in at least 571 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five years. It's a wonderful thing. 572 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 2: And their crime is weighed down. And one of the 573 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: reasons is we've taken a lot of bad people and 574 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,319 Speaker 2: gotten them out of our country. In some cases they're 575 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 2: so bad that we put them in prison because we 576 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 2: don't want them to even take a chance of coming 577 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 2: back in. Even though our voter is very secure, record 578 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 2: setting secure, we had zero illegal aliens being admitted into 579 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 2: our country for the last eight months. That's hard for 580 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 2: even meet to believe. But the people that make up 581 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 2: the lists are supposedly nonpartisan, but I would say they 582 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 2: lean toward the Democrat side, and they say that I'm 583 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 2: all for it. 584 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,160 Speaker 1: Vinditch Trump. He of course, also touted his economic successes 585 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 1: heart from cabinet secretaries, including his Treasury Secretary Scott Presson, 586 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: who touted his Trump accounts thousand dollars in the hands 587 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: of newborn babies that will accrue interest and invest in 588 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: the American stock market could be worth millions by the 589 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:40,280 Speaker 1: time the baby is thirty forty years old. Also talking 590 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: about the stock market hitting seven thousand, the S and 591 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:46,360 Speaker 1: P five hundred for the very first time just yesterday, 592 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: and of course the President was railing on the market 593 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 1: killing momentum, the momentum killing announcement by Federal Reserve Chairman 594 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 1: Jerome Powell. Now Powell is going to be out as 595 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 1: airman of the Board. It is still an open question 596 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,680 Speaker 1: as to whether he is going to stay on as 597 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: a governor of the FED. Three federal Reserve governors, all 598 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 1: appointed by Trump, all dissented from Powell's decision yesterday not 599 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: to lower interest rates. This morning in Minneapolis, Borders Are 600 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:24,200 Speaker 1: Tom Homan called out politicians who he says are making 601 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,839 Speaker 1: it far more difficult for law enforcement officers to do 602 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:28,359 Speaker 1: their jobs. 603 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:31,479 Speaker 8: Were they in the last four years when the number 604 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 8: of women children's second traffick went all the time high? 605 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 8: Where were they when a quarterminion Americans back in Fatanyl 606 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:43,320 Speaker 8: from across the border. Where were they when women and 607 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 8: children are dyningmaking that journey? Where were they were filed 608 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,960 Speaker 8: for fourth over four thousand anilies making that journey died 609 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 8: historic record? 610 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 1: Where were they? Not a word? 611 00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 8: Now, We're just trying to respond to what happened on 612 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 8: four years and keep this country safe. And where rust 613 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 8: a lot of public safety thrust t from off the 614 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 8: streets was make this country safer? Put Trump prounbs make 615 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 8: this country safe again. 616 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: And Homan said that's exactly what he and his agents 617 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: are doing now. Homan did meet with Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frye, 618 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: who initially, it seems, agreed to some of the Trump 619 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: administration's requests slash demands to lower the federal presence in Minneapolis, 620 00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: but has been publicly still keeping up the rhetoric that 621 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 1: Homan calls dangerous and irresponsible and has led to two 622 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 1: people in Minneapolis now getting killed. 623 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 8: Begged for the last two months on TV put a 624 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 8: right to stop. I said in March. The rhetoric didn't stop. 625 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 8: There's going to be a bloodshed, and there has been. 626 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 8: I wish that wasn't right. I don't want to see 627 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 8: anybody die. 628 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: Not officers. 629 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 8: I'm members of the community are not the targets of 630 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 8: our operations. 631 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:20,399 Speaker 1: But the people out there don't like what I was doing. 632 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 8: If you want certain laws reformed, and take it up 633 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 8: with Congress again, Ice is making this up there enforcing 634 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 8: laws and acted by Congress and signed by President. The 635 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 8: same laws have been on the books for the last 636 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 8: six presidents I worked for. I started with the President 637 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 8: Reagan and anything with President Trump. Every administration we enforced 638 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 8: the same laws. 639 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: That is actually an excellent point. In fact, the Obama 640 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: administration was bragging about the number of deportations conducted in 641 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 1: the eight years Obama was president. There was not a 642 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,720 Speaker 1: single protest, not a single riot, not a single ice 643 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: age spat upon. There were millions of deportations under George W. Bush. Again, 644 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: zero protests, zero riots. Bill Clinton, same thing. Even Joe Biden. 645 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 1: There were actually a couple million deportations under the Biden administration. 646 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: Guess what, zero protests or riots. It also, folks, has 647 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: not escaped my notice that we have over the past decade, 648 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 1: only had four years in which there were no riots 649 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,880 Speaker 1: in the United States. Those just happened to be the 650 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: four years that Joe Biden was president. This is now 651 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,760 Speaker 1: a tactic of the left. We're just going to have riots. 652 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: We're just going to have violent uprisings every time there 653 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 1: is a Republican president. And you could actually see this 654 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 1: being telegraphed the very first week that Trump was in 655 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:59,359 Speaker 1: office in twenty seventeen, week one, week two, something like that. 656 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:03,239 Speaker 1: What are the very very first major policy pushes by 657 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 1: the Trump administration? Do you know what it was? You 658 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 1: remember it was nine years ago, now, that's right, the 659 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 1: so called Muslim travel ban. Would you believe there were 660 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:23,919 Speaker 1: protests across the country that were paid for, organized highly coordinated, 661 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:27,360 Speaker 1: and they were just waiting. They were literally waiting for 662 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:31,280 Speaker 1: the first Trump policy that they thought would be actionable. 663 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 1: It turned out to be the so called Muslim travel ban, 664 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 1: a ban on travel from and visas from and immigration 665 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,000 Speaker 1: from countries which were not cooperating with the United States 666 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: on vetting people coming into this country. They're from terror hotbeds. 667 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,400 Speaker 1: It makes all the sense in the world that we 668 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: would need to secure better cooperation on vetting from the 669 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,919 Speaker 1: host nations before we let people who could be terror 670 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 1: rists into this country.

A student, it seems, 676 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 1: participating in Whitefish Bay High School's ice out protest a 677 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 1: couple of days ago. This was I believe yesterday. Milwaukee 678 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:46,879 Speaker 1: Journal Sentinel posted the picture yesterday on its official at 679 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: Journal Sentinel Instagram page, along with a number of pictures 680 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 1: from the Whitefish Bay walkout. It shows several dozen kids 681 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,759 Speaker 1: holding up signs and standing on what appears to be 682 00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: the front steps of Whitefish Bay High School. Some of 683 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:12,800 Speaker 1: the signs say turn up the heat, melt the ice, 684 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:20,239 Speaker 1: love melts ice. Fire is catching. I can't see some 685 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:24,359 Speaker 1: of these other ones in the back though. And if 686 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: you go to my social media at nan O'Donnell's show 687 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:31,840 Speaker 1: on X on Facebook and on Instagram, I've got it circled. 688 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 1: In the back. Right next to the love Melts ice sign, 689 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 1: there's a kid very clearly holding up a swastika. It 690 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:49,759 Speaker 1: is a black swastika on white paper. Now, I have 691 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 1: absolutely no idea who this kid is. I'm assuming it's 692 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 1: a kid. It could very well be a staff member. 693 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 1: I would doubt it. Since these all appear to be students, 694 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to take a wild guess that this is 695 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,200 Speaker 1: a student. All you can see is a hand. It's 696 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:10,319 Speaker 1: a white student with a black shirt or jacket or sweatshirt, 697 00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 1: and it appears that this student is wearing some sort 698 00:48:13,680 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: of bracelet or watch. That's all you can You could 699 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: literally just see a hand. It is a small sign, 700 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 1: but it is a swastika, white paper, black swastika. I'm 701 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:31,000 Speaker 1: not going to pretend I know what the meaning of this. 702 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 1: I mean I've obviously I know the meaning of a swastika, Okay, 703 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:41,280 Speaker 1: I understand in the context of the last hundred years 704 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: of human events what a swastika means and the people 705 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 1: who use the swastika as their silviol I'm saying in 706 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 1: the context here, was it a kid who in one 707 00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,759 Speaker 1: of the most Jewish communities in Wisconsin? And this is 708 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:02,120 Speaker 1: some pretty critical context here. Whitefish Bay is a very 709 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 1: heavily Jewish community. It is therefore a bit different to 710 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 1: hold up a swastika there than perhaps someone else somewhere else. 711 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: Is this a sign, a symbol that is aimed at 712 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 1: the Jewish community of Whitefish Bay? Possibly? Is it a 713 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 1: sign indicating that ice agents who are being protested are 714 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 1: just like the Nazis? Is it a kid who is 715 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:39,439 Speaker 1: trolling the protests by either putting up the most ridiculous 716 00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: sign that he or she can find, or trying to 717 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:47,399 Speaker 1: intentionally sabotage this picture by putting up a swastika sign. 718 00:49:47,760 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 1: I have no idea. I have a screencap of this 719 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 1: at my social media because I am just taking a 720 00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,560 Speaker 1: wild guess, and yes, the Journal Sentinel had it up. 721 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 1: I gets and tee. Nobody at the Milwaukee Journal Sentinels 722 00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:08,239 Speaker 1: social media team saw this swastika. I'm just going to 723 00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:12,240 Speaker 1: take a guess that it was completely oversight. They slipped 724 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 1: one past the goalie here, and nobody intended at the 725 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 1: Milwaukee I'm very critical of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. I'm 726 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 1: going to take a wild guess they don't have actual 727 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 1: Nazis in their social media team looking to subliminally place 728 00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 1: these images. Now, did you notice? Did you notice how 729 00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm giving the Journal Sentinel the benefit of the doubt. 730 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 1: Do you think every Milwaukee Journal Sentinel employee would say 731 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 1: the same thing about Dan o'donald, Yes, clearly he's not 732 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,759 Speaker 1: actually a Nazi, Or would some of them be like, yeah, 733 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 1: that Dan o'donnald's clearly a Nazi. I think it's probably 734 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 1: the latter, in spite of the lack of grace that 735 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 1: that same publication would ever show me. I'm going to 736 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,240 Speaker 1: show them a little great since say, look, they didn't 737 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,439 Speaker 1: intend for this to be out there. I guess I'm 738 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: just a little perplexed and slightly amused, because one thing 739 00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: that we have seen in a whole lot of these 740 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:17,799 Speaker 1: protests is, of course the comparisons to the Nazis. The 741 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 1: comparisons to Hitler, the comparisons to the brown Shirts, the SS, 742 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,839 Speaker 1: and pretty much everything Nazi Germany, proving once again that 743 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:30,960 Speaker 1: liberals have absolutely no imagination none. The only comparisons that 744 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,320 Speaker 1: they can ever make are two Nazis or Harry Potter. 745 00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:38,000 Speaker 1: Trump is either Hitler or he is Voldemort, and I 746 00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:41,920 Speaker 1: am telling you there is not another thing that a 747 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 1: twenty five to thirty five year old, white female liberal 748 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,399 Speaker 1: can ever compare him to. Trust me, I have gone 749 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 1: through enough of their TikTok videos and enough of them 750 00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 1: are now commenting on my Facebook page to know that 751 00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 1: they lack imagination. So I would love it if Whitefish 752 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:07,319 Speaker 1: Bay School District would get to the bottom of this 753 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 1: and get back to me. Let me know what are 754 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 1: we doing here about the Nazi imagery in your student 755 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:20,760 Speaker 1: walkout protests that you are undoubtedly so proud of. Earlier 756 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 1: this week, you're listening to the Dan o'donald's show, a 757 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 1: Tour de Force of Truth. We'll be right back to it. 758 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 1: So we've got Whitman Middle School walking out and showing 759 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:41,719 Speaker 1: the video of Alex pretty getting killed instead of you know, 760 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:45,719 Speaker 1: actually learning. We've got parents saying, hey, you've got teachers 761 00:52:45,800 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 1: telling kids, why don't you write a letter to the 762 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 1: mayor Walwatosa Mayor Dennis McBride. Yes, I'm sure he would 763 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: love to get all of these emails from kids talking 764 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:03,440 Speaker 1: about anti ice nonsense, or write a letter to Congress 765 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,719 Speaker 1: expressing anti ice propaganda. A number of parents reached out 766 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:11,359 Speaker 1: to me saying that they did not feel comfortable with 767 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: their kids being a part of all of this. And 768 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,360 Speaker 1: then you've got Whitefish Bay High School kids holding up 769 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 1: a swastika during their ice out demonstration. Not only that, 770 00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:27,600 Speaker 1: you've got the school board president up in Green Bay 771 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:32,560 Speaker 1: who happens to be married to doctor Christen Liarly, the 772 00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 1: woman who started the false rumor that Ice was booking 773 00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:39,640 Speaker 1: hundreds of hotel rooms at the Hilton Hotel in Milwaukee. 774 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:45,080 Speaker 1: James Liarley saying, Alex Pretty is precisely the type of 775 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: guy that we want our students to grow up and 776 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 1: be like. You know, I'm starting to see a problem 777 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:59,040 Speaker 1: here with education in Wisconsin. What do you notice? These 778 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 1: are three of the most liberal school districts in the 779 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: entire state. Folks, When parents accept this sort of behavior 780 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:13,880 Speaker 1: from school administrators and teachers, you get this sort of 781 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 1: behavior from school administrators and teachers. I'll bet you every 782 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 1: single one of those school districts was among the school 783 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 1: districts that wrote this big letter to the state legislature saying, 784 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 1: we just can't keep up. We need more funding because 785 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 1: student enrollment has declined. Are you ready for this? Student 786 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 1: enrollment has declined across the state, really across the country. 787 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: And this is a function, Nacha. They love to blame 788 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 1: the Catholic schools, the charter schools, they love to blame 789 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:49,959 Speaker 1: school choice. It's actually not. This is a broader societal 790 00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:54,160 Speaker 1: trend that my generation and the generation below, mind, the 791 00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 1: millennials and the Generation Z and Generation Alpha. Hopefully the 792 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 1: Alpha aren't quite old enough to start having kids yet, 793 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:07,239 Speaker 1: but none of us are having kids in anywhere near 794 00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: the numbers of the greatest generation. This really started with 795 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,239 Speaker 1: the Baby boomers. Really, you can, and I know I 796 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: pick on the Boomer libs quite a bit, primarily because 797 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:23,240 Speaker 1: it's fun, but you actually can point to the point 798 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 1: in civilization where we really stopped having four or five 799 00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 1: six children being the norm, and going to two or 800 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 1: three kids and four children in a family now being 801 00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 1: considered an exceptionally large family. I have three children. My 802 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: wife and I did our part each woman, and every 803 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:53,880 Speaker 1: time I explain this, I get questions about it. In 804 00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:59,480 Speaker 1: order to maintain replacement level berths, you need to have 805 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: two point point one children per woman, And how is 806 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 1: that possible? It's an average genius. So my wife and 807 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 1: I did our part. Why two point one one father, 808 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,640 Speaker 1: one mother lives. You are going to get a science 809 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 1: lesson too. See, when a man loves a woman very much, 810 00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: they must both be cisgender. Only the woman can get pregnant. 811 00:56:20,520 --> 00:56:23,240 Speaker 1: Say it with me, Only the woman can get pregnant. 812 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:29,200 Speaker 1: Only the man can do the impregnating. But in order 813 00:56:29,239 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: to replace the parents who at some point, hopefully not 814 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:37,399 Speaker 1: for a long long time, but will die, you need 815 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:42,600 Speaker 1: to have two point one children per woman. Why per woman? 816 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: Because men can obviously impregnant in any event. In any event, 817 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 1: we are well below the replacement level now for births, 818 00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: and this is actually a big reason. This ties into 819 00:56:55,719 --> 00:57:00,320 Speaker 1: why Democrats at least pretend to want to have unfnd 820 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 1: immigration across borders. Weirdly enough, though it's only immigration from 821 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,960 Speaker 1: the Third World, we don't seem to want any more 822 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:13,279 Speaker 1: immigration from like Italy or Germany. Seems like we got 823 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,840 Speaker 1: enough Germans here in the United States. No, no, no, no, no. 824 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,439 Speaker 1: We need as many Hondurans as we can possibly get here. 825 00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:24,439 Speaker 1: Honduran doctors, Honduran engineers. Yeah, that'd be great. No no, no, no, nope. 826 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:30,960 Speaker 1: Honduran criminals, Honduran day laborers, the lowest skilled, uneducated people 827 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: that you can possibly find. In fact, if you could 828 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 1: just give us a whole bunch of Honduran criminals, that 829 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: would actually be ideal. Democrats say that this is to 830 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 1: replace or augment the number of births that aren't happening. Really, 831 00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 1: it is to provide them with a permanent, voting, dependent 832 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 1: class that they will be forever indebted to Democrats for 833 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: getting them to the United States. Discuss that in a 834 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:04,880 Speaker 1: little bit greater depth. But all of these school districts 835 00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 1: that are wasting valuable class time by having their kids 836 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 1: walk out and write letters to Congress about how much 837 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 1: they hate ice, they all signed on to this letter 838 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:19,720 Speaker 1: saying we need to change the way that K twelve 839 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:26,280 Speaker 1: education is funded because school enrollment is declining and we 840 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 1: need more and more money. Now, this seems awful counterintuitive 841 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:34,720 Speaker 1: to me. If you have fewer children to educate, would 842 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: it not stand a reason that you would have fewer expenses, 843 00:58:39,440 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 1: that there would be fewer costs, that maybe you wouldn't 844 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: need quite as many teachers, maybe you wouldn't need quite 845 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:55,920 Speaker 1: as many administrators, maybe you wouldn't need quite as many facilities. Naturally, 846 00:58:56,720 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 1: no one in education wants to confront this very harsh reality. 847 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 1: So now we get things like Governor evers four hundred 848 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:14,200 Speaker 1: year veto, where school districts can simply increase the amount 849 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: of money per pupil that is spent without ever having 850 00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 1: to go to referendum. That's what the four hundred year 851 00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 1: veto did. Now Governor Evers has demanded now that legislative 852 00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: Republicans go along with his one point three billion dollar 853 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:34,480 Speaker 1: property tax relief proposal, just undo the four hundred year veto. 854 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 1: Just undo it. Force those school districts to go to referendum, 855 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 1: or as they're facing declining enrollment, as they're facing declining 856 00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:55,120 Speaker 1: state aid, force them to cut, force them to adapt. 857 00:59:55,440 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 1: Producer Eric, as you walk the halls of iHeartRadio, are 858 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 1: there nearly as many people in this building as there 859 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 1: were a decade ago? Sixty percent less minimum, maybe seventy 860 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:15,040 Speaker 1: five percent less. A lot of very good, very talented 861 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 1: people are no longer in the radio business because the 862 01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 1: radio business is changing. There's a whole lot of competition 863 01:00:24,680 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: from podcasts, from video streaming. From all of this, I 864 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,040 Speaker 1: actually thought one of the most brilliant things our company did. 865 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 1: Did you see our partnership with Netflix. You can now 866 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 1: watch some of the big time podcasts like Charlemagne the 867 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: God what is his show? The Breakfast Club I think 868 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 1: we're doing Last Murder on the Left, and some of 869 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: the other big podcasts you can actually watch them on Netflix. 870 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:55,480 Speaker 1: I think the genius idea genius idea get revenue from Netflix, 871 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:59,240 Speaker 1: they get content. We get our shows out there to 872 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: a totally new audience. You get advertised. It was a 873 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 1: smart move. But iHeart Radio I'll never forget when we 874 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: changed our name from Clear Channel Audio to iHeartRadio. Do 875 01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:14,240 Speaker 1: you know I'll never forget that because I had five 876 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 1: hundred business cards delivered the day before that said Dan 877 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:23,440 Speaker 1: O'Donnell talk show host Clear Channel Radio. And then we 878 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: had an all staff meeting. We get our CEO on 879 01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 1: a video conference, Hey, we're changing the company's name to iHeartMedia. 880 01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, ah, that's great. What am I going to do? 881 01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 1: With five hundred Clear Channel business cards. That was the 882 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:40,840 Speaker 1: last time I ever got business cards. Yeah. What I 883 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 1: tell people now is I'm about the easiest person in 884 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:49,000 Speaker 1: the world to find my point being. The radio business, 885 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 1: just like every other business, has had to adapt. And yes, 886 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:57,760 Speaker 1: we have had competition, just as public education has had 887 01:01:57,800 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 1: competition from charter schools and on private schools and homeschooling. 888 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:06,919 Speaker 1: That is an issue, But the biggest issue is that 889 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 1: there simply aren't as many people who are listening to 890 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 1: our product. For schools, it's there's not as many children 891 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:18,880 Speaker 1: being born. And for people who listen to the radio, 892 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 1: it's as people grow up into that age where hey, 893 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 1: I care about the world now, or I'm going to 894 01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,320 Speaker 1: start listening to you know, Taylor Swift. Where it is 895 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 1: kids they're listening to Spotify to get their Taylor Swift, 896 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:39,840 Speaker 1: adults are listening to you know, Tucker Carlson's podcast. They're 897 01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 1: not listening. They're not saying, Hey, I better tune in 898 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 1: at exactly three oh six so I can hear Dan O'Donnell. 899 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 1: This is why we make such a concerted effort to 900 01:02:50,600 --> 01:02:54,480 Speaker 1: do video, to post clips from this show constantly, to 901 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 1: constantly talk about the podcast. You could listen to us 902 01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: at any time. It's because we have to adapt. You 903 01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:05,880 Speaker 1: don't adapt, you die, except, of course, you're in government, 904 01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 1: and then you can just demand that you get more money, 905 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 1: or you can have the governor just soak taxpayers to 906 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:19,360 Speaker 1: the tune of eighty million dollars every single year. You 907 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:22,400 Speaker 1: saw how much your property tax bill went up by 908 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:25,440 Speaker 1: this year, you better believe it's going to keep going 909 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: up because of this mindset from the very people behind 910 01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:34,720 Speaker 1: the walkouts in Whitefish Bay, behind the walkouts and in 911 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: Wahwatosis Schools, and the indoctrination at Wahwatosas Schools and MPs 912 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 1: and Madison Metropolitan and all the big school districts that 913 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:48,240 Speaker 1: are tomorrow I'm sure going to allow. There's this big nationwide. 914 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 1: It's like a boycott day. I forget what the lefties 915 01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,880 Speaker 1: are calling it, but you're not supposed to go to work, 916 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to go to school. I love this. 917 01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 1: I love this. Lefties are going to protest by not 918 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:03,360 Speaker 1: going to work. How is that different than any other 919 01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 1: day I've first proved to me that you're employed, I'm 920 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,800 Speaker 1: not going to work today. Well, wow, what's the special occasion, 921 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:17,200 Speaker 1: Is it Wednesday? They're gonna not go to work? Yes, yes, 922 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 1: all of the goons who are spending their days chasing 923 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 1: around ice agents in Minneapolis. Yes, please please boycott your job, 924 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 1: which you are very obviously going to every day. Dan 925 01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 1: O'Donnell's show, coming back in just a second. I touched 926 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 1: a little bit in that last segment on one of 927 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 1: the major issues facing the world, and that is the 928 01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 1: dramatically declining birth rate across the globe. In nineteen sixty 929 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:53,800 Speaker 1: there were five berths per woman. That means each woman 930 01:04:54,120 --> 01:04:59,160 Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty had an average of five children. In 931 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three there were two point three. That is 932 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:10,040 Speaker 1: a significant decline in just sixty three years, and there 933 01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:13,680 Speaker 1: is no single reason for it. And by the way, 934 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: the only countries that are keeping the birth rate above 935 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:22,360 Speaker 1: what's known as replacement level two point one children for 936 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:27,840 Speaker 1: every woman, it's the developing world, particularly Nigeria. Nigeria is 937 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:31,760 Speaker 1: going to probably within the next decade or so, be 938 01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 1: the second most populous country on earth, behind India. Here 939 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 1: in the United States, the birth rate is now one 940 01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:47,480 Speaker 1: point six births per woman. That's twenty twenty four data 941 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 1: from the CDC one point six. We are well below 942 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:56,000 Speaker 1: we are half a baby short of replacement level, and 943 01:05:56,040 --> 01:06:00,400 Speaker 1: we're not alone throughout the developed world. In France, last 944 01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:05,160 Speaker 1: France recorded more deaths than births for the first time 945 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:09,600 Speaker 1: since World War iiO. Obviously, during the Nazi occupation and 946 01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:12,800 Speaker 1: the resistance and fighting the war, there were more deaths 947 01:06:12,840 --> 01:06:16,240 Speaker 1: than births first time ever. There's no war in Europe, 948 01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:21,080 Speaker 1: it is just the population is getting older. Japan in 949 01:06:21,200 --> 01:06:24,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four recorded the lowest number of births in 950 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty five years since nineteen hundred. That 951 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:32,320 Speaker 1: was the last time the birth rate was this low. 952 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 1: In China, China now has a total fertility rate one 953 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: point zero birth per woman. This is reflective of China's 954 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:49,120 Speaker 1: long standing one child policy, which was rescinded some years ago. 955 01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:53,480 Speaker 1: But China, pretty much the entire Asian world has a 956 01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:58,320 Speaker 1: very low birth rate, historically low South Korea zero point 957 01:06:58,360 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 1: seven to zero point eight. Now, the developing world has 958 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:08,760 Speaker 1: always had a higher birth rate throughout the modern age. 959 01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:13,280 Speaker 1: Since the Industrial Revolution of the late eighteen hundreds, the 960 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:18,760 Speaker 1: developed world would typically produce more babies because there wasn't 961 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:23,080 Speaker 1: as much access to contraception. You would not have as 962 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:27,680 Speaker 1: many women in the workforce. Frankly, there is not quite 963 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 1: as much to do other than you know in some 964 01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:37,600 Speaker 1: developing African nation. So, while the world birth rate in 965 01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty was five births per woman, in the developed world, 966 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:47,920 Speaker 1: the advanced economies those are known as OECD nations, there 967 01:07:47,920 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 1: were three point three births per woman. That has dropped. 968 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 1: Most recent year for which we have data is twenty 969 01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:59,800 Speaker 1: twenty two one point five berths. This is a major 970 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:05,520 Speaker 1: problem an aging population combined, so you have fewer births 971 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:09,880 Speaker 1: and you also have a much longer life expectancy. I mean, 972 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 1: back in nineteen sixty the average life span was well 973 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 1: shorter than it is today now. For the average American female, 974 01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,519 Speaker 1: I believe it's seventy six seventy seven years old. Men 975 01:08:21,600 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 1: it's like seventy three seventy four, somewhere in that range. 976 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 1: And the reason for that is because we have so 977 01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: many drug deaths, we have so many homicides, we have 978 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 1: so many suicides. If you can actually avoid those, the 979 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:40,519 Speaker 1: life expectancy shoots up to the upper eighties. It's really 980 01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:44,160 Speaker 1: remarkable how in developed nations you can live a very 981 01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:47,640 Speaker 1: long time. Basically, if you don't kill yourself, if you 982 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:50,960 Speaker 1: don't get addicted to drugs, if you don't get shot 983 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,160 Speaker 1: and killed, you don't get in a car accident, some 984 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 1: of the things that will kill people. It drives down 985 01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 1: the average significantly because you get enough thirty year olds 986 01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:02,240 Speaker 1: who are dying. Obviously, that offsets the number of eighty 987 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:07,000 Speaker 1: five year olds. You understand how statistics work. When you 988 01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:12,599 Speaker 1: have an aging workforce, you have fewer workers per retired person. 989 01:09:13,000 --> 01:09:17,639 Speaker 1: Those retired persons, thanks to Medicare and social Security, are 990 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:21,680 Speaker 1: drawing their incomes or at least a significant portion of 991 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 1: their income if they're not. If they didn't save and 992 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 1: they don't have a big nest egg to draw from 993 01:09:26,640 --> 01:09:32,200 Speaker 1: in their retirement years, you have fewer workers per retired person. 994 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:37,760 Speaker 1: That puts a tremendous strain on social welfare states on 995 01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 1: social I shouldn't say welfare states on social programs. This 996 01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 1: also tends to slow economic growth because more of a 997 01:09:49,320 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 1: country's GDP is required to go into sustaining the older population. 998 01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:58,840 Speaker 1: You also have to put in way more in the 999 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 1: healthcare industry. You don't get growth industries. And when fewer 1000 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 1: people are being born, you have the potential for fewer entrepreneurs, 1001 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 1: fewer people who are going to create things that dramatically 1002 01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:16,040 Speaker 1: explode in nation's economy. And this is where the left 1003 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:21,240 Speaker 1: comes in. They say, look, this is unsustainable. We need 1004 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:25,519 Speaker 1: to import people from the nations that are having a 1005 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:29,519 Speaker 1: lot of children. Look, we don't have a workforce that 1006 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:32,960 Speaker 1: is able to keep up with the demands of the 1007 01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: modern world. Now that may be partially true, but not entirely. 1008 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 1: AI is going to completely and smart robotics systems as 1009 01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 1: well as supercomputing is in large measure, going to dramatically 1010 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:52,360 Speaker 1: reduce the need, if not eliminate the need altogether for 1011 01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:58,719 Speaker 1: huge sectors of employment that we have. Now we are folks, 1012 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 1: everybody is talking about out AI and all of this. 1013 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:06,720 Speaker 1: Do not forget what Elon Musk and a number of 1014 01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: other electronic robotic companies are doing. Humanoid robotics are designed 1015 01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:16,799 Speaker 1: to take the place of many workers who are doing 1016 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:19,880 Speaker 1: jobs that otherwise human beings are doing. And folks, the 1017 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,439 Speaker 1: first ones that are going to go. I hate to 1018 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:25,360 Speaker 1: say it because I love truckers. I've got a number 1019 01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:27,679 Speaker 1: of trucker friends. Good friend of mine is a trucker. 1020 01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 1: He drives for Lyft as well. I always tell him. 1021 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, you got to get you got to 1022 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:39,400 Speaker 1: get something else going because Weimo I was talking about Austin, 1023 01:11:39,520 --> 01:11:42,920 Speaker 1: Texas in the last segment or a couple of segments ago. 1024 01:11:43,880 --> 01:11:47,360 Speaker 1: Weaimos are Weaimo is the Google. It's outfitted with Google 1025 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:50,599 Speaker 1: AI and it's self driving technology and it'll come pick 1026 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 1: you up through Uber or Lyft and there's no driver. 1027 01:11:53,760 --> 01:11:58,200 Speaker 1: It's just a self driving car. That's the future. Heck, 1028 01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 1: that's the present, and more more cities are going to 1029 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 1: right now. It's basically a beta testing program to have 1030 01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 1: weimos on the streets to see how artificial intelligence and 1031 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:14,240 Speaker 1: self driving cars do with other human drivers on the road. 1032 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,360 Speaker 1: The issue with the self driving cars is not how 1033 01:12:17,400 --> 01:12:20,679 Speaker 1: they do. They react just fine. They have trouble dealing 1034 01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 1: with the unpredictability of human drivers. You know, some woman 1035 01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:28,280 Speaker 1: who's doing her nails behind the wheel, some guy who 1036 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:30,360 Speaker 1: has a coffee in one hand and is on his 1037 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: phone in the other and driving with his knees. I mean, 1038 01:12:32,920 --> 01:12:34,920 Speaker 1: that's the sort and then all of a sudden you're 1039 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:38,920 Speaker 1: swerving into the weimo. They have a difficult time, or 1040 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,800 Speaker 1: at least not quite as easy a time as maybe 1041 01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:45,400 Speaker 1: a human being with better reaction time, reacting to something 1042 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:51,840 Speaker 1: that's just totally unexpected. That said, this is going to 1043 01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 1: be the norm. Self driving cars are going to be 1044 01:12:54,360 --> 01:12:58,320 Speaker 1: the norm. I'm going to say within five to seven years. 1045 01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm seeing that producer Eric is, we may have to 1046 01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:06,760 Speaker 1: backtime this last break, Eric, because this is this is 1047 01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:11,880 Speaker 1: an important point that what have we had a big 1048 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:16,120 Speaker 1: issue with illegal immigrant truck drivers being unable to read 1049 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:21,160 Speaker 1: traffic signs and causing all manner of horrible crashes. What 1050 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:25,000 Speaker 1: happens if they're and we're told, well, well, Americans aren't 1051 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:28,000 Speaker 1: signing up to be truck drivers. What happens if you 1052 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 1: don't need human beings at all. Long before we have 1053 01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:34,760 Speaker 1: human beings transported by cars, we are going to have 1054 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 1: merchandise transported by self driving vehicles because there's really no 1055 01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 1: risk to anybody inside the vehicle. Sure, there's a risk 1056 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:45,960 Speaker 1: that if the truck crashes into a you know, a 1057 01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:50,040 Speaker 1: family of four, that obviously would be devastating, but you 1058 01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,719 Speaker 1: don't have that same risk of somebody in a car 1059 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:57,320 Speaker 1: with no driver. So you can literally see possibly within 1060 01:13:57,360 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: a year or two, you're going to see significant numbers 1061 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 1: of truck drivers losing their jobs to machines. When we're 1062 01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:09,719 Speaker 1: talking about Governor Evers, Well, you wouldn't have an economy 1063 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:12,799 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin because if we don't have illegals, there's nobody 1064 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:15,559 Speaker 1: there to milk the cows. How can you call yourself 1065 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:17,920 Speaker 1: the dairy state. That's a notorious quote. We replay it 1066 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:19,679 Speaker 1: all the time. How can you call yourself the dairy 1067 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,960 Speaker 1: state if you don't have anybody there to milk the house? 1068 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:23,759 Speaker 1: Who says you need somebody there to milk the cows. 1069 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:29,680 Speaker 1: Who says, in three to four years, you don't have 1070 01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 1: a machine milking the cows entirely. And yes, there are 1071 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,679 Speaker 1: cow milking machines, but let's say there's not humanoid robots 1072 01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:42,080 Speaker 1: doing a great deal of the farming chores. This is 1073 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: sort of the issue here. But leftists say, well, we 1074 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 1: need to import these people because our birth rates are 1075 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:51,760 Speaker 1: so low that we just aren't going to be able 1076 01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,400 Speaker 1: to replace the population. So we're going to replace the 1077 01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:56,679 Speaker 1: population that would otherwise be born with people are coming 1078 01:14:56,680 --> 01:14:58,840 Speaker 1: into the country. Oh no, no, no, no, you can't 1079 01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 1: say that that is the suppose racist great replacement theory. Well, 1080 01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:07,960 Speaker 1: it's literally what democrats have been saying for years and 1081 01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:11,759 Speaker 1: This is why I suspect they are fighting tooth and nail, 1082 01:15:11,960 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 1: including very likely shutting down the government at midnight, because 1083 01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:20,000 Speaker 1: they don't want any sort of border enforcement at all. 1084 01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:22,639 Speaker 1: They don't want any sort of immigration enforcement, they don't 1085 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:26,360 Speaker 1: want deportations, they don't want a closed border. How else 1086 01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:28,439 Speaker 1: do you explain the fact that we could have shut 1087 01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: down the border any damn well time we pleased during 1088 01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:36,320 Speaker 1: the Biden administration, it just refused. Trump had the magic formula, 1089 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:38,160 Speaker 1: is just able to do it in a week. Give 1090 01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,200 Speaker 1: me a break. We'll discuss that coming up after the 1091 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,360 Speaker 1: top of the hour right here on the Dan o'donald Show. 1092 01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:48,280 Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Dan o'donalds Show. Five o'clock hours 1093 01:15:48,320 --> 01:15:50,960 Speaker 1: starts right now, and it starts with a chance for 1094 01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:54,040 Speaker 1: you to win one thousand dollars In just a second, 1095 01:15:54,080 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 1: we will give you this hour's word in the cold 1096 01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 1: hard cash contest. First, some stories that we've been following 1097 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 1: this afternoon. President Trump holding a cabinet meeting today talking 1098 01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:11,280 Speaker 1: tough on Iran but also opening up Venezuela's airspace following 1099 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:14,679 Speaker 1: the deposition and arrest of former dictator Nicholas Maduro. 1100 01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:17,719 Speaker 2: This has been I think, and a lot of people 1101 01:16:17,760 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 2: say it the most successful year of any administration in 1102 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:25,040 Speaker 2: American history. First year has never been the first year 1103 01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 2: like this included. 1104 01:16:26,320 --> 01:16:30,920 Speaker 1: The President touting his first year agenda and instructing Transportation 1105 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:35,080 Speaker 1: Secretary Sean Duffy to open up the skies over Venezuela. 1106 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:39,920 Speaker 2: I've instructed Sean Duffy and everybody else concern including the military, 1107 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 2: and that if you would by the end of today, 1108 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 2: I'd like you had of the airspace over Venezuela. Planes 1109 01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:49,120 Speaker 2: can go to Venezuela opened up. Okay, yes, thank you 1110 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:49,639 Speaker 2: very much. 1111 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: Now there is some speculation, thanks to an article in 1112 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 1: Politico today, that Sean Duffy may be on his way 1113 01:16:56,520 --> 01:17:00,760 Speaker 1: out as Transportation Secretary. The articles sites, of course, a 1114 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:04,280 Speaker 1: number of anonymous sources who believe that Trump feels that 1115 01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:07,880 Speaker 1: Duffy is in over his head and has been ineffectual 1116 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:12,880 Speaker 1: as Transportation Secretary. That doesn't seem to jibe with the 1117 01:17:12,920 --> 01:17:16,240 Speaker 1: facts on the ground. Trump also just gave the endorsement 1118 01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:21,040 Speaker 1: for the sixth Congressional District Republican primary two Duffy's son 1119 01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 1: in law, Michael al Fonso. Stories we've been covering here 1120 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:28,960 Speaker 1: on the Dan O'Donnell show Whitman middle school parents are 1121 01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 1: upset after teachers have been encouraging anti ICE letters being 1122 01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:38,920 Speaker 1: written by students. They also showed video of Alex Pretty 1123 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:43,240 Speaker 1: being shot and killed. New information about Pretty, by the way, 1124 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: video from January sixteenth shows that he was engaged in 1125 01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:51,960 Speaker 1: violent encounters with ICE agents about eleven days before he 1126 01:17:52,120 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 1: was in fact shot to death and at an ICE 1127 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,360 Speaker 1: out protest a student walkout at Whitefish Bay High School. 1128 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:03,559 Speaker 1: We actually found a swastika sign in the background of 1129 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:07,560 Speaker 1: a student shot that appeared on the Milwaukee Journal Sentinels 1130 01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 1: Instagram page. We have no idea. Is it a statement 1131 01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:16,800 Speaker 1: that Ice are Nazis? Is a kid messing with the protesters? 1132 01:18:16,840 --> 01:18:19,680 Speaker 1: It is, after all, in the back. It is of 1133 01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 1: course highly inappropriate. Cold hard cash contest word this hour 1134 01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,960 Speaker 1: Friend f R I E N D Friend.

Number of people texting in for suggestions on 1144 01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:04,000 Speaker 1: where to send the ice verifier thugs that voss de 1145 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:07,080 Speaker 1: front la Frontera has been organized. I actually got an 1146 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:11,760 Speaker 1: email that I took rather seriously, and you know, this 1147 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:15,719 Speaker 1: woman said, Hey, Dan, I love the idea of sending 1148 01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:19,760 Speaker 1: ice verifiers, like calling up and just saying, hey, I 1149 01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 1: think I saw ice in the middle of the woods. 1150 01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 1: But she said, Dan, you gotta be careful sending these 1151 01:19:26,280 --> 01:19:31,879 Speaker 1: nutsos to random like real businesses. That's probably not something 1152 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 1: you should be doing because there could be confrontations there. Look, folks, 1153 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:40,720 Speaker 1: I don't actually think that ice verifiers are going to 1154 01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:43,720 Speaker 1: be going out. I believe this to be an illegal 1155 01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:49,960 Speaker 1: interference in federal law enforcement. I believe the very concept 1156 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:53,800 Speaker 1: of going out to try to verify that ice is 1157 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:56,760 Speaker 1: in a neighborhood and then warning the targets of a 1158 01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:00,000 Speaker 1: valid warrant that hey, the law is coming, you better 1159 01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 1: get out of there. That's obstruction of federal process. That 1160 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:08,400 Speaker 1: is attempting to conceal somebody from arrest. So it's my 1161 01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:11,760 Speaker 1: hope that enough people call this hotline that it's just 1162 01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 1: clogged and that it's useless. I'll be completely and totally 1163 01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 1: upfront about it. I believe that it's being used to 1164 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:22,920 Speaker 1: facilitate a crime. I think it's shameful that you had 1165 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:29,280 Speaker 1: was at Channel four Today's TMJ four had Christine Newman Ortiz, 1166 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:33,120 Speaker 1: who's the executive director of Vosses de la Frontier out there, 1167 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:36,920 Speaker 1: and she had the goal to say, well, where it's 1168 01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:40,519 Speaker 1: just it is so damaging, it is so dangerous when 1169 01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:45,480 Speaker 1: we have unverified rumors, and we don't want these unverified 1170 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:49,720 Speaker 1: rumors because it causes harm to the community. That's why 1171 01:20:49,720 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 1: you should call up our ICE verify or hotline. Well 1172 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:54,840 Speaker 1: what the hell do you think it does to law 1173 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,920 Speaker 1: enforcement agents when you've got an army of left wing 1174 01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:02,880 Speaker 1: crazies on speed dial ready to go out wherever they are. 1175 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:06,360 Speaker 1: Can we get the Can we get the audio of 1176 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 1: Alex Pretty and his violent confrontation on January thirteenth, producer, Eric, 1177 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:14,519 Speaker 1: can we pop that up there? All right? Thank you 1178 01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:17,640 Speaker 1: very much. This is this is what happens when you 1179 01:21:17,680 --> 01:21:22,160 Speaker 1: get some ICE verifiers out in the field to just 1180 01:21:22,520 --> 01:21:25,720 Speaker 1: see what ICE is doing. Okay, Alex Pretty is an 1181 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:48,320 Speaker 1: ice verifier. That's what happens. It's not just dangerous for 1182 01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:53,599 Speaker 1: ice agents. Alex Pretty died because he was whipped into 1183 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:57,840 Speaker 1: a frenzy. I see him as as ultimately a very 1184 01:21:58,040 --> 01:22:03,519 Speaker 1: tragic figure. He's whipped into a frenzy by Tim Walls 1185 01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:07,839 Speaker 1: and Jacob Frye and most likely some of the people 1186 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 1: that he's seeing on TikTok. He's he's a left wing 1187 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:16,479 Speaker 1: do gooder. He goes into nursing. He wants to help people. 1188 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:23,679 Speaker 1: He's clearly got some mental instability problems, and he sees 1189 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:27,720 Speaker 1: ICE as being well, they're Nazis. They're Nazis. They're they're 1190 01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:31,599 Speaker 1: they're in unmarked vans. They're grabbing people up off the streets. 1191 01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 1: That is a direct quote from Tim Walls. They're they're 1192 01:22:36,439 --> 01:22:42,320 Speaker 1: taking Minnesotas. And Frank another quote from Tim Walls, he said, 1193 01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 1: somewhere there is a little girl hiding in Minneapolis who, 1194 01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:49,400 Speaker 1: like an Frank, is going to write the book about 1195 01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 1: what happened here. You and I can laugh about this 1196 01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:59,120 Speaker 1: because it's so stupid, someone like Alex Pretty, who has 1197 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:04,840 Speaker 1: violent avenge fantasies and and and all I can think 1198 01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 1: of is that the line of from Hamilton head full 1199 01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:13,400 Speaker 1: of fantasies of dying like a martyr. Uhhah, dying is easy, 1200 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:18,479 Speaker 1: young man, Living is harder. That that was Alex pretty 1201 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:23,160 Speaker 1: head full of fantasies of being a martyr for the 1202 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:27,520 Speaker 1: cause of what, standing up for child rapists and murderers. 1203 01:23:28,400 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 1: That Ice is going to deport So they're not going 1204 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:37,439 Speaker 1: after the Mexican and Frank, they're not going after Anita Franco. 1205 01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,080 Speaker 1: They're going after the worst of the worst. But you've 1206 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:44,679 Speaker 1: got crazies who believe that that's not true. And what's 1207 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:48,400 Speaker 1: rather amazing to me, and this again, I will go back. 1208 01:23:48,439 --> 01:23:52,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna call it missus O'Donnell theory because 1209 01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:55,559 Speaker 1: my wife this is, this is like her overarching theory 1210 01:23:55,600 --> 01:24:00,200 Speaker 1: of everything. It is that we cannot we do not 1211 01:24:00,360 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 1: as left and right in this country. We do not 1212 01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:08,040 Speaker 1: anymore have any sort of common ground because the left 1213 01:24:08,320 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 1: sees a completely different algorithm on news that is curated 1214 01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 1: often without any human involvement whatsoever, specifically for them, and 1215 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,080 Speaker 1: because there is such a concerted effort on the left 1216 01:24:22,360 --> 01:24:24,799 Speaker 1: to hide you you can actually see in real time 1217 01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:27,519 Speaker 1: what it was that the Soviets were doing for so 1218 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 1: many decades to their people, just deliberately hiding true things 1219 01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:37,040 Speaker 1: that reflect poorly on the Soviets. That's exactly what's going 1220 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:41,760 Speaker 1: on now. We have a modern day Pravda in our 1221 01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:47,320 Speaker 1: traditional and social media. In fact, I have been I 1222 01:24:47,360 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 1: have been inundated with people on my Facebook wall saying 1223 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:56,639 Speaker 1: the video of Alex pretty you just heard it. There 1224 01:24:56,640 --> 01:25:01,920 Speaker 1: are multiple angles of him bitting on a car, of 1225 01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:05,559 Speaker 1: him kicking out a tail light. They're saying, well, that's Ai, 1226 01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:13,000 Speaker 1: that's AI. The BBC published it, the British Broadcasting Corporation. 1227 01:25:13,560 --> 01:25:16,840 Speaker 1: It's about one of the most left wing organizations in 1228 01:25:16,920 --> 01:25:22,160 Speaker 1: the world. It's not AI. I'm sorry, your hero is 1229 01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 1: actually a sociopath. Democrats now are gonna shut down the 1230 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,200 Speaker 1: government because they don't want ICE funded. You know what 1231 01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 1: the problem with this is, you talk about these people 1232 01:25:32,680 --> 01:25:36,639 Speaker 1: just having no idea about what's going on. Even Tammy 1233 01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:39,599 Speaker 1: Baul do you know ICE is funded through twenty twenty nine, 1234 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:45,320 Speaker 1: fully funded. This DHS appropriation bill it would go to 1235 01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 1: other parts of the Department of Homeland Security, and Tammy 1236 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:57,320 Speaker 1: Baldwin is repeatedly voting to filibuster the basically it's a 1237 01:25:57,360 --> 01:26:00,800 Speaker 1: procedural vote, so they can't move forward. And I don't 1238 01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:03,639 Speaker 1: want to get into my thoughts about the filibuster. Yes, 1239 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:07,280 Speaker 1: absolutely does need to be abolished in its current form. 1240 01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:09,240 Speaker 1: I want to go back to how we used to 1241 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:12,480 Speaker 1: do the filibuster, where you can't have a virtual filibuster. 1242 01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: You actually need to have someone like mister Smith goes 1243 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 1: to Washington standing and talking, and as soon as they 1244 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:24,680 Speaker 1: collapse from exhaustion, all right, filibuster is over. The filibuster 1245 01:26:24,880 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 1: was never designed to permanently stop legislation or to force 1246 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:33,800 Speaker 1: an artificial sixty vote threshold. There's literally nothing in the 1247 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:38,439 Speaker 1: Constitution or nothing in federal law. This is some Senate rule. 1248 01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:40,840 Speaker 1: So what happens is they went to what's known as 1249 01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 1: a two track system, where I want you to think 1250 01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,599 Speaker 1: of bills that go before the Senate as like train 1251 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 1: cars on a track. Okay, and let's say the Ice 1252 01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:57,200 Speaker 1: Appropriations Bill or DHS Appropriations Bill is the lead car 1253 01:26:57,320 --> 01:27:01,120 Speaker 1: on the track. In the old days, if you would 1254 01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:06,240 Speaker 1: filibuster the ice bill, every other car on the track 1255 01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 1: would be stopped. Now you just move the ice bill 1256 01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:14,920 Speaker 1: to a separate track, a two track legislation, and all 1257 01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:17,000 Speaker 1: the other cars, So you don't even need to fill 1258 01:27:17,040 --> 01:27:19,080 Speaker 1: a buster. You just say, ah, I'm good to filibuster, 1259 01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:21,840 Speaker 1: and we just move right on to the next bill. 1260 01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 1: The other one dies. Well, it's a de facto way 1261 01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:28,639 Speaker 1: to kill a bill that was never actually contemplated by 1262 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,719 Speaker 1: the Constitution of the United States, the framers, or any 1263 01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:38,320 Speaker 1: sort of federal law. Why is it, though, that Democrats 1264 01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:44,720 Speaker 1: are working so so hard in order to get as 1265 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:48,800 Speaker 1: many illegals into this country and keep them there. There 1266 01:27:48,840 --> 01:27:51,920 Speaker 1: can really be no doubt. I mean, the first two 1267 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:56,160 Speaker 1: weeks of the Trump administration pretty much proves that the 1268 01:27:56,240 --> 01:28:01,599 Speaker 1: last four years of the Biden administration was intentional. How 1269 01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:04,639 Speaker 1: else do you shut down the border in two weeks 1270 01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:07,840 Speaker 1: after four years of saying, well, there's nothing we can do. 1271 01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:09,880 Speaker 1: We just have to have a poorest border. We need 1272 01:28:09,880 --> 01:28:12,800 Speaker 1: as many people as humanly possible, just waltzing right in. 1273 01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:16,400 Speaker 1: We did not need a new bill, we did not 1274 01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:18,559 Speaker 1: need new laws, we did not need new anything. Just 1275 01:28:18,600 --> 01:28:22,519 Speaker 1: a new president. President Trump proved it. Why are they 1276 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:29,040 Speaker 1: fighting so hard. It's because their political survival depends on it. 1277 01:28:30,200 --> 01:28:33,639 Speaker 1: And it all has to do with this census, folks. 1278 01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:37,519 Speaker 1: The Center for Immigration Studies found two years ago twenty 1279 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:42,240 Speaker 1: twenty four, that both legal and illegal immigrants in the 1280 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:48,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty census shifted seventeen House seats and thus seventeen 1281 01:28:48,040 --> 01:28:53,000 Speaker 1: electoral College votes, leading to a net gain of fourteen 1282 01:28:53,360 --> 01:28:59,920 Speaker 1: seats for Democrat leaning states. Ten seats and ten electoral 1283 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:04,679 Speaker 1: votes were lost by Republican states, four by battleground states, 1284 01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:08,840 Speaker 1: and because all of the battlegrounds went to Republicans, pretty 1285 01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:15,640 Speaker 1: much all fourteen went to Republican states. This is not insignificant. 1286 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:22,280 Speaker 1: In fact, this is massive. Not only that in the 1287 01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:27,360 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two midterms, National Review used the exact same 1288 01:29:27,479 --> 01:29:31,960 Speaker 1: census data to find that districts with high non citizen 1289 01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:38,840 Speaker 1: populations one in five adults overwhelmingly voted for Democrats in 1290 01:29:38,920 --> 01:29:43,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, twenty of twenty four such districts went Democrat. 1291 01:29:44,800 --> 01:29:51,400 Speaker 1: H That's interesting. Not only this, why is it that 1292 01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 1: Democrats constantly are talking about a pathway to citizenship? I 1293 01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:58,080 Speaker 1: call it a pathway to voting. Public Policy Institute of 1294 01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:03,840 Speaker 1: California found fifty six percent of naturalized citizen voters in 1295 01:30:03,880 --> 01:30:09,160 Speaker 1: that state registered as Democrats, compared to fourteen percent as Republicans. 1296 01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:16,040 Speaker 1: It is widely believed that immigrants vote overwhelmingly Democratic. Now 1297 01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:19,000 Speaker 1: that might have shifted. A whole lot of things did 1298 01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:23,679 Speaker 1: shift in twenty twenty four, not necessarily because of Trump, 1299 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:27,080 Speaker 1: but because, as I very strongly suspect, the Biden administration 1300 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:31,559 Speaker 1: was historically awful. But even if there is no pathway 1301 01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:38,759 Speaker 1: to citizenship, even if no illegal immigrants ever cast a vote, 1302 01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:42,479 Speaker 1: or no non citizen immigrants who are legally barred from 1303 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,280 Speaker 1: voting got to be a citizen ever cast to vote, 1304 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:50,720 Speaker 1: their mere presence in this country, as evidenced by the 1305 01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:56,640 Speaker 1: fact that Democrats got fourteen House seats and fourteen electoral 1306 01:30:56,720 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 1: votes that they shouldn't have gotten because in the sete 1307 01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:05,840 Speaker 1: and SIS we count Democrats and Republicans and citizens and 1308 01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:10,000 Speaker 1: non citizens alike. Now, as I reported earlier this week, 1309 01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:13,719 Speaker 1: based on brand new census data just out a couple 1310 01:31:13,800 --> 01:31:18,040 Speaker 1: of days ago, the American Redistricting Project projects that the 1311 01:31:18,200 --> 01:31:24,800 Speaker 1: twenty thirty Census is going to be absolutely devastating for Democrats. Now, 1312 01:31:24,840 --> 01:31:29,160 Speaker 1: it was widely believed, and in fact the Census Bureau acknowledged, 1313 01:31:29,240 --> 01:31:32,960 Speaker 1: because the census was conducted during COVID nineteen. The reason 1314 01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:39,280 Speaker 1: that Democrats got so big of an advantage was because 1315 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:43,559 Speaker 1: there was a dramatic over counter excuse me, yes, an 1316 01:31:43,600 --> 01:31:49,760 Speaker 1: overcount an overestimate of minority citizens, and it was it 1317 01:31:49,840 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 1: was just completely a mess. So Southern states were essentially 1318 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:58,519 Speaker 1: screwed and northern states were the beneficiaries. Well, that's going 1319 01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:03,400 Speaker 1: to self correct in twenty Not only that, people are 1320 01:32:03,479 --> 01:32:07,080 Speaker 1: just fleeing blue states in record numbers. California is going 1321 01:32:07,080 --> 01:32:13,080 Speaker 1: to lose four electoral votes and four congressional representatives. Illinois, Minnesota, 1322 01:32:13,560 --> 01:32:16,720 Speaker 1: New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and yes, us here 1323 01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:21,040 Speaker 1: in Wisconsin, we are all projected to lose one seat each. 1324 01:32:21,439 --> 01:32:26,759 Speaker 1: That is eleven House seats. All of those are going 1325 01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:29,800 Speaker 1: to go to states that went for President Trump in 1326 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,559 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Four House seats go to Texas, two 1327 01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:38,000 Speaker 1: go to Florida, one each to Arizona, Georgia, Idaho, North Carolina, 1328 01:32:38,479 --> 01:32:43,280 Speaker 1: and Utah. This means in twenty thirty two, Republicans can 1329 01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:46,559 Speaker 1: win the White House without meeting any one of the 1330 01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:50,920 Speaker 1: Blue Wall states Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania. All they need 1331 01:32:50,960 --> 01:32:53,439 Speaker 1: to do is to keep all of the states that 1332 01:32:53,520 --> 01:32:58,040 Speaker 1: they traditionally win and keep the increasingly read Georgia, North 1333 01:32:58,120 --> 01:33:02,160 Speaker 1: Carolina and Arizona. It is a much easier path for 1334 01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:07,920 Speaker 1: Republicans throughout the next decade. Democrats recognize this, and this 1335 01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 1: is why throughout the Biden administration, not only were they 1336 01:33:11,040 --> 01:33:16,760 Speaker 1: importing new people by the millions, they were shuffling them 1337 01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:23,160 Speaker 1: around coincidentally enough to states that have sanctuary jurisdictions and 1338 01:33:23,280 --> 01:33:27,400 Speaker 1: states that might otherwise lose a whole ton of population 1339 01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:32,439 Speaker 1: and thus representation in the twenty thirty census. We now 1340 01:33:32,479 --> 01:33:35,560 Speaker 1: go to the phones and talk with Mike in Cedarberg. 1341 01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:37,840 Speaker 1: You're on the Dan O'Donnell show. It's going on, sir, 1342 01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:40,200 Speaker 1: I just. 1343 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:43,840 Speaker 6: Want to offer you a little different perspective. Then, I 1344 01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:49,559 Speaker 6: have a child of chosen Minnesota, in Minneapolis, and she's 1345 01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:54,000 Speaker 6: a wonderful girl, super liberal. I can't stand it, but 1346 01:33:54,080 --> 01:33:56,400 Speaker 6: you know what, I love her and I have to 1347 01:33:56,479 --> 01:34:01,639 Speaker 6: listen to her. And she's concerned in and rightfully soul. 1348 01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:06,800 Speaker 6: She has friends that are immigrants, they're legal, but they 1349 01:34:06,880 --> 01:34:12,519 Speaker 6: are picking up people and detaining them. And this isn't 1350 01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:17,679 Speaker 6: a Democrats bad, Republicans good. She's not defending the murderers, 1351 01:34:18,360 --> 01:34:22,479 Speaker 6: she's not defending the thieves, the criminals. She's defending your friends. 1352 01:34:22,720 --> 01:34:26,799 Speaker 6: And I just see all this hate going both ways. 1353 01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:31,320 Speaker 6: You voted for Trump. You're a jerk, You're a horrible person. 1354 01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:35,440 Speaker 6: But it's not that way. I have friends that are Democrats. 1355 01:34:36,120 --> 01:34:39,679 Speaker 6: We can't talk about this stuff, I think, and that's 1356 01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:41,000 Speaker 6: one of the big issues. 1357 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:43,360 Speaker 1: That's one of the big issues. And I'm far be 1358 01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:47,599 Speaker 1: it from me to discount your daughter's lived experience. But that, frankly, 1359 01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:51,880 Speaker 1: is a terrible argument that it's it's an argument based 1360 01:34:51,920 --> 01:34:55,040 Speaker 1: on a tiny representative sample. Well, she knows a couple 1361 01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:58,679 Speaker 1: of people who were detained who are citizens. Well, okay, 1362 01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:04,840 Speaker 1: where they actively resisting arrest, were they caught up in 1363 01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:09,840 Speaker 1: a sweep and then subsequently released. The reality is, unfortunately, Mike, 1364 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:12,280 Speaker 1: and please don't I'm not trying to jump down your throat. 1365 01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:14,280 Speaker 1: Please do not do not misinterpret. 1366 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:16,040 Speaker 6: No not, I get it. 1367 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:18,920 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying like it can't under agree. 1368 01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:22,000 Speaker 6: I agree with you. But but now this is where 1369 01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:24,759 Speaker 6: it gets weird. I agree with you one hundred percent, 1370 01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:27,200 Speaker 6: and I've tried to talk with her and it doesn't work. 1371 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:30,400 Speaker 6: The reason it doesn't work is because of something you've said. 1372 01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:35,360 Speaker 6: The mayor the governor are telling them different. There's recruiting 1373 01:35:35,400 --> 01:35:39,480 Speaker 6: these people into these activities. Their mind has been twisted. 1374 01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:44,519 Speaker 6: I consider it brainwashing. But they're good people and they're 1375 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:47,679 Speaker 6: believing everything that has been sure for them, So it's 1376 01:35:47,720 --> 01:35:49,320 Speaker 6: not it's unfortunate. 1377 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:54,680 Speaker 1: So it's not that. Okay, Hey, this person who is 1378 01:35:54,800 --> 01:35:59,920 Speaker 1: a naturalized citizen was in the the the the Senate 1379 01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:04,000 Speaker 1: of where a known let's say, illegal drug trafficker who 1380 01:36:04,120 --> 01:36:06,679 Speaker 1: was the target of this thing. That actually does happen, 1381 01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:10,280 Speaker 1: and these people get detained, you got to sort them out. Oftentimes, 1382 01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:14,680 Speaker 1: when they're arrested, it's because they're violently resisting, they're obstructing, 1383 01:36:14,840 --> 01:36:19,559 Speaker 1: they're running, they're doing something right. Yes, if you have 1384 01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 1: other illegals who are not criminals, who are with a 1385 01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:28,839 Speaker 1: target of a raid and they are taken into custody, 1386 01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:32,880 Speaker 1: this often happens when you raid workplaces and things like that, 1387 01:36:34,560 --> 01:36:38,200 Speaker 1: they will be deported because unlawful entry into the United 1388 01:36:38,240 --> 01:36:41,360 Speaker 1: States is a crime and it is a deportable offense. 1389 01:36:41,680 --> 01:36:44,000 Speaker 1: In terms of talking to your daughter, though, I'm so 1390 01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:47,719 Speaker 1: glad you raise this point though, Mike, so so glad. 1391 01:36:48,400 --> 01:36:52,760 Speaker 1: It is because again, you and your daughter are not 1392 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:57,639 Speaker 1: You're not seeing the same reality right. What you are 1393 01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:02,559 Speaker 1: seeing is okay. Here is the objective reality. Ice is 1394 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:08,720 Speaker 1: enforcing immigration laws. We have never before had massive widespread 1395 01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:14,519 Speaker 1: violence and rioting against the lawful enforcement of immigration law. 1396 01:37:15,120 --> 01:37:17,880 Speaker 1: There were And what I would actually do. I don't 1397 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:19,800 Speaker 1: have the stats in front of me right now, Mike, 1398 01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:22,559 Speaker 1: but I would say, hey to your daughter. I would say, hey, look, 1399 01:37:22,640 --> 01:37:25,519 Speaker 1: I totally get it, and I understand it. But I 1400 01:37:25,560 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 1: want you to think about this. Why is it Why 1401 01:37:29,160 --> 01:37:34,599 Speaker 1: is it that Minnesota accounts for just a tiny number 1402 01:37:35,120 --> 01:37:39,920 Speaker 1: of the deportation actions in this country? Do you know 1403 01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:41,880 Speaker 1: there were ice Did you know there was an ice 1404 01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:46,639 Speaker 1: surgeon Maine? For goodness sakes, it stopped now, but there 1405 01:37:46,680 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 1: was an ice surgeon made. There's been one in Florida, 1406 01:37:49,920 --> 01:37:54,200 Speaker 1: There's been one in Texas for some time. Now. Why 1407 01:37:54,280 --> 01:37:58,320 Speaker 1: are there not these violent clashes? It's because people aren't 1408 01:37:58,360 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 1: being radicalized. I would also look up the statistics, Mike 1409 01:38:02,960 --> 01:38:08,240 Speaker 1: on how many people were deported by Bill Clinton, George W. Bush. 1410 01:38:08,360 --> 01:38:11,960 Speaker 6: Oh, oh, oh, I already have I've done that. Obama 1411 01:38:12,240 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 6: means more people died under Obama. Bush was more people 1412 01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:18,400 Speaker 6: died under ice. Bush was the number one. Obama was 1413 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:23,800 Speaker 6: number two. Now, Dan still, this is really important here 1414 01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:29,599 Speaker 6: because I'm living this. You're touting facts. I agree with you. 1415 01:38:30,160 --> 01:38:34,599 Speaker 6: My daughter is a young liberal teacher in a liberal 1416 01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:38,400 Speaker 6: area with all her friends. These facts are not going 1417 01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:41,640 Speaker 6: to get through because it's just emotion, the TV, the 1418 01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:46,040 Speaker 6: social media, it's it's and there is. Again you pointed 1419 01:38:46,040 --> 01:38:48,599 Speaker 6: it out, there is a shred of truth. There are 1420 01:38:48,680 --> 01:38:51,200 Speaker 6: people and I know someone who someone went into someone's 1421 01:38:51,240 --> 01:38:54,519 Speaker 6: work to pick somebody up, to detain them. They were legal, 1422 01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:57,480 Speaker 6: but they were gone for days. So there are shreds 1423 01:38:57,520 --> 01:39:00,200 Speaker 6: of things that are there. If you look at that 1424 01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 6: video closely, what happened that gun was pulled away? 1425 01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:07,559 Speaker 1: And yeah, but well, what I would do? What I 1426 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:09,280 Speaker 1: would do on that score? What I would do on 1427 01:39:09,320 --> 01:39:13,479 Speaker 1: that score, Mike, uh is? I mean, if she wants 1428 01:39:13,560 --> 01:39:17,000 Speaker 1: to watch my entire ten minute debunking video, that would 1429 01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:19,960 Speaker 1: be what I It doesn't matter when they established gun 1430 01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:23,080 Speaker 1: gun gun, He had a gun. He is reaching into 1431 01:39:23,120 --> 01:39:26,080 Speaker 1: his waistband very quickly, whether or not the gun was 1432 01:39:26,160 --> 01:39:28,599 Speaker 1: still there. So long as there's a reasonable belief of 1433 01:39:28,640 --> 01:39:31,839 Speaker 1: death or great bodily harm, it is a justified shooting. 1434 01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:34,160 Speaker 1: But I totally see what you're saying. I think, Mike, 1435 01:39:34,240 --> 01:39:36,480 Speaker 1: if I may, if I may as a father myself, 1436 01:39:38,600 --> 01:39:40,920 Speaker 1: you have to cut all ties with her. I'm sorry, No, 1437 01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:43,200 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm a kidding, Yeah, 1438 01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:43,920 Speaker 1: totally kidding. 1439 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:46,120 Speaker 6: That's the problem is she doesn't want to talk with me. 1440 01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:46,639 Speaker 7: You know. 1441 01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:51,760 Speaker 1: That sucks, man, It really does, like honestly, like from 1442 01:39:51,840 --> 01:39:55,000 Speaker 1: one dad to another. And you know, mine's eleven, and 1443 01:39:55,800 --> 01:39:57,840 Speaker 1: you know she she doesn't want to talk to me 1444 01:39:57,880 --> 01:40:01,360 Speaker 1: when I when I turn off you know, Charlie XCX 1445 01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:04,000 Speaker 1: or Taylor Swift or something like that off the radio 1446 01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:06,559 Speaker 1: because I want to listen to you know, Clay and Buck. 1447 01:40:06,960 --> 01:40:07,080 Speaker 6: Uh. 1448 01:40:07,760 --> 01:40:10,800 Speaker 1: But it is very difficult. And this is sort of 1449 01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:13,760 Speaker 1: what my wife has been talking about. I'm talking about 1450 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:17,720 Speaker 1: the Missus O'Donnell theory, where it's like your daughter just 1451 01:40:17,880 --> 01:40:23,280 Speaker 1: consumes com she consumes a completely different reality than you do, 1452 01:40:23,840 --> 01:40:27,200 Speaker 1: and it's a reality that isn't actually based in fact, 1453 01:40:27,840 --> 01:40:31,040 Speaker 1: but rather based in liberal narratives. For example, did she 1454 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:36,000 Speaker 1: would she have ever seen the video of Alex pretty 1455 01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:41,320 Speaker 1: violently resisting and spitting on the ice agent's cars a 1456 01:40:41,360 --> 01:40:43,840 Speaker 1: week and a half before he was killed and kicking 1457 01:40:43,920 --> 01:40:47,160 Speaker 1: out the tail right, No, she would have never seen that. 1458 01:40:48,040 --> 01:40:50,719 Speaker 1: She wouldn't believe it. She'd be one of the ones. 1459 01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:53,320 Speaker 1: She'd be one of the ones. Like in my Facebook page, 1460 01:40:53,920 --> 01:40:59,240 Speaker 1: in my Facebook comment section, it's Ai, it's Ais. I mean, 1461 01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:01,400 Speaker 1: I've never seen you know what and you know what 1462 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:04,840 Speaker 1: this is, Mike. It's called cognitive dissonance. It's and I 1463 01:41:04,880 --> 01:41:07,479 Speaker 1: mean you and I both have it. It's we our 1464 01:41:07,560 --> 01:41:14,760 Speaker 1: brains actively reject information that contradicts our worldview. And it's very, 1465 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:17,800 Speaker 1: very difficult. I mean, the best thing I can tell you, 1466 01:41:18,360 --> 01:41:23,320 Speaker 1: Mike is to keep talking, keep trying. Ultimately, though it's 1467 01:41:23,360 --> 01:41:26,519 Speaker 1: your daughter, you love her, there is way more to 1468 01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:31,000 Speaker 1: talk about than alex pretty and Minnesota. Talk about that. 1469 01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:33,760 Speaker 1: Remember how much you love her. I know she will 1470 01:41:33,800 --> 01:41:38,680 Speaker 1: always love her dad and and folks, honestly, you know, 1471 01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:42,759 Speaker 1: to to all people who have you know, in their family, 1472 01:41:42,800 --> 01:41:48,320 Speaker 1: and I know it's especially difficult with kids who go 1473 01:41:48,400 --> 01:41:51,080 Speaker 1: off to college and and come back lives. I'm taking 1474 01:41:51,120 --> 01:41:55,040 Speaker 1: a whild guess my high school senior is probably not 1475 01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:58,760 Speaker 1: you should You should hear him talk about some of 1476 01:41:58,760 --> 01:42:01,760 Speaker 1: this stuff as actually man, it's like, well, it's like 1477 01:42:01,800 --> 01:42:04,000 Speaker 1: talking to me as an eighteen year old, only I 1478 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 1: was nowhere near as well versed about the body politic. 1479 01:42:08,640 --> 01:42:10,960 Speaker 1: My fifteen year old son on the way to his 1480 01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:15,639 Speaker 1: soccer game, and he's just ripping on the left and 1481 01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:19,519 Speaker 1: on people on TikTok, because do you remember before the 1482 01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:21,920 Speaker 1: Alex Pretty shooting, we were talking about this last week 1483 01:42:22,240 --> 01:42:23,800 Speaker 1: when they made up the fact that they were like 1484 01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:26,800 Speaker 1: ice arrested a five year old. My fifteen year old 1485 01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:29,360 Speaker 1: was like this, this is insane, Like this is so 1486 01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:32,280 Speaker 1: easily debunked. So I don't think I have to worry 1487 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:37,280 Speaker 1: about them. But with respect to kids who don't share 1488 01:42:37,360 --> 01:42:41,840 Speaker 1: your political beliefs, trust me, at some point most of 1489 01:42:41,880 --> 01:42:45,599 Speaker 1: them come around when they start seeing how much money 1490 01:42:45,720 --> 01:42:49,760 Speaker 1: vanishes out of their paycheck and what Democrats do with 1491 01:42:49,840 --> 01:42:53,240 Speaker 1: the money that they take. Great call, Mike, and thank 1492 01:42:53,280 --> 01:42:59,479 Speaker 1: you so much for it. Just taking a look at 1493 01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:04,719 Speaker 1: our advent dot com talk and text line and yeah, 1494 01:43:04,800 --> 01:43:09,439 Speaker 1: sounds like a lot of people are in Mike's boat, folks. 1495 01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:12,960 Speaker 1: I'm not there yet. I'm obviously a bit younger than 1496 01:43:13,200 --> 01:43:16,240 Speaker 1: a lot of our listeners, at least that are that 1497 01:43:16,320 --> 01:43:19,640 Speaker 1: are listening to us on the radio. You know, a 1498 01:43:19,640 --> 01:43:22,680 Speaker 1: lot of you have adult children. My oldest is eighteen, 1499 01:43:23,320 --> 01:43:26,120 Speaker 1: and we sort of got started a little younger, although 1500 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,040 Speaker 1: you know, if you think about it, my wife was 1501 01:43:29,080 --> 01:43:31,680 Speaker 1: still she was still getting her master's. I was just 1502 01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:34,559 Speaker 1: out of law school when we had our oldest and 1503 01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:39,720 Speaker 1: I was twenty five, twenty five, twenty six, she was 1504 01:43:39,760 --> 01:43:43,200 Speaker 1: twenty four to twenty five somewhere in there, and we 1505 01:43:43,200 --> 01:43:46,160 Speaker 1: were thinking, oh my gosh, we're so young. We would 1506 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:50,000 Speaker 1: have been throughout the whole of human history like old parents. 1507 01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:56,200 Speaker 1: You know, it is remarkable. But so we're not there 1508 01:43:56,320 --> 01:43:59,320 Speaker 1: where the kids are. I mean, they do have their 1509 01:43:59,400 --> 01:44:03,879 Speaker 1: own political philosophy. It's it's not like they're just parroting 1510 01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:06,479 Speaker 1: whatever it is. Dad says, Heaven knows, they don't really 1511 01:44:06,560 --> 01:44:10,120 Speaker 1: listen to me on the radio. Uh, but obviously, you know, 1512 01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:13,040 Speaker 1: we've we've been talking about this stuff in the family 1513 01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:16,439 Speaker 1: and in the home for many many years, and pretty 1514 01:44:16,479 --> 01:44:19,880 Speaker 1: much everybody in our extended families, my wife's parents, my 1515 01:44:20,000 --> 01:44:25,479 Speaker 1: parents are very, very conservative, and uh, I can imagine 1516 01:44:25,520 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 1: it's got to be difficult because you listen to a 1517 01:44:28,320 --> 01:44:32,600 Speaker 1: show like mine or Vicky or Jason or Ben or 1518 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:37,759 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck, and you get objective truth, objective fact 1519 01:44:38,040 --> 01:44:41,680 Speaker 1: that that's that's what we do. I always say this way, 1520 01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:44,719 Speaker 1: I say conservative thought, not just talk. It's the truth 1521 01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:47,880 Speaker 1: and nothing. But it's a tour de force of truth. 1522 01:44:47,920 --> 01:44:52,160 Speaker 1: That's it. That's that's what we bill ourselves. As you know, 1523 01:44:52,479 --> 01:44:56,600 Speaker 1: people ask me, they're like, the most condescending question I 1524 01:44:56,600 --> 01:45:00,599 Speaker 1: think I get is do you really believe the things 1525 01:45:00,640 --> 01:45:04,880 Speaker 1: you say on the radio? What I tell people is, 1526 01:45:05,560 --> 01:45:07,840 Speaker 1: whenever someone asked me that question, to be a jerk. 1527 01:45:07,880 --> 01:45:09,920 Speaker 1: And let's just let's you know, I can see through 1528 01:45:09,960 --> 01:45:12,200 Speaker 1: you right away when you ask that question, it's to 1529 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:14,559 Speaker 1: be a jerk. I say, I don't believe anything. The 1530 01:45:14,600 --> 01:45:16,600 Speaker 1: only thing I say are things I can prove you 1531 01:45:16,760 --> 01:45:20,519 Speaker 1: do you do? Likewise, I'm guessing you don't. You just 1532 01:45:20,680 --> 01:45:25,759 Speaker 1: sort of regurgitate whatever you sort of hear on MS 1533 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:30,639 Speaker 1: now or on some TikTok by someone screeching about Ice 1534 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:38,520 Speaker 1: being Nazis. But appeals to emotion and the logical fallacy 1535 01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:43,160 Speaker 1: that our listener, Mike's daughter was engaged in is the 1536 01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:48,879 Speaker 1: it's an appeal to it's an anecdote. It's anecdotal evidence, 1537 01:45:49,080 --> 01:45:53,000 Speaker 1: is the absolutely it's not actually evidence at all. So 1538 01:45:53,400 --> 01:45:56,960 Speaker 1: for example, I had a devil of a time getting 1539 01:45:56,960 --> 01:46:02,360 Speaker 1: a prescription filled at Walgreens. Okay, it was terrible, terrible time. 1540 01:46:02,640 --> 01:46:05,759 Speaker 1: It was not their fault. It was a manufacturer's coupon 1541 01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:08,160 Speaker 1: and it was just some snaffoo. We had to actually 1542 01:46:08,200 --> 01:46:11,320 Speaker 1: call the manufacturer, who said it happens all the time. 1543 01:46:11,360 --> 01:46:13,960 Speaker 1: It's just one of those things. I was at Walgreens 1544 01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:16,839 Speaker 1: for something like three straight days trying to get this fixed. 1545 01:46:18,600 --> 01:46:24,160 Speaker 1: If I said Walgreens is a terrible pharmacy because of this, 1546 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:28,679 Speaker 1: well Walgreens has. I was watching the other people behind 1547 01:46:28,720 --> 01:46:31,519 Speaker 1: me in life. They had no issues whatsoever. It was 1548 01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:36,320 Speaker 1: just my prescription. That would be a terrible argument because 1549 01:46:36,360 --> 01:46:41,880 Speaker 1: it would be easily disproven. That's objective reality. But to me, 1550 01:46:43,160 --> 01:46:45,160 Speaker 1: I could say, well, to me, Walgreens is the way. 1551 01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:48,600 Speaker 1: Just so we're clear, I'm in Walgreens constant. I love Walgreens. 1552 01:46:48,600 --> 01:46:51,840 Speaker 1: I shop at Walgreens all the freaking time. It's just 1553 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:57,760 Speaker 1: it's so convenient. I I love it. But you see 1554 01:46:57,800 --> 01:47:03,280 Speaker 1: how reality can shift based on perspective. So it's essentially 1555 01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:08,479 Speaker 1: a fallacy. It's it's arguing from personal experience that might 1556 01:47:08,640 --> 01:47:11,839 Speaker 1: or might not be relevant, and you are one person 1557 01:47:11,920 --> 01:47:13,920 Speaker 1: in a nation of three hundred and forty million, but 1558 01:47:13,960 --> 01:47:15,639 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. This is this is why the left 1559 01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:21,559 Speaker 1: always thought, oh, well, my truth, I am living my truth. Great, 1560 01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:23,960 Speaker 1: I have my truth. You have your truth. There is 1561 01:47:24,000 --> 01:47:32,400 Speaker 1: also the truth, and the truth is that the opinion 1562 01:47:32,560 --> 01:47:37,800 Speaker 1: that the inflammatory rhetoric that is being spewed by people 1563 01:47:37,800 --> 01:47:43,040 Speaker 1: who would know better is especially effective on people who 1564 01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:48,880 Speaker 1: who don't have a grounding in actual fact. Like if 1565 01:47:48,960 --> 01:47:52,439 Speaker 1: I were to tell our listener's daughter or any of 1566 01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:55,639 Speaker 1: your sons or daughters who are who are left of center, 1567 01:47:57,240 --> 01:48:00,000 Speaker 1: if I were to tell them that fifty percent, five 1568 01:48:00,439 --> 01:48:07,040 Speaker 1: zero half of America's Border Patrol agents are Hispanic, would 1569 01:48:07,040 --> 01:48:12,080 Speaker 1: they accept that? So? So Border Patrol is this horrible 1570 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:17,320 Speaker 1: racist entity against Hispanics, but they hire mostly Hispanics. Just 1571 01:48:17,640 --> 01:48:23,400 Speaker 1: so I'm clear, ICE hates Hispanic people. Yet a third 1572 01:48:23,720 --> 01:48:29,760 Speaker 1: of ICE is Hispanic. An additional something like fifteen seventeen 1573 01:48:29,840 --> 01:48:33,280 Speaker 1: percent I believe the number is is black. You on 1574 01:48:33,400 --> 01:48:39,400 Speaker 1: that half of ICE agents are black or Latino, but 1575 01:48:39,680 --> 01:48:44,479 Speaker 1: these are the racist Nazis. How many people would would 1576 01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:47,439 Speaker 1: how many people on the left would even accept that 1577 01:48:48,280 --> 01:48:50,439 Speaker 1: or just assume, well, that comes from Dan O'Donnell. He's 1578 01:48:50,520 --> 01:48:56,200 Speaker 1: lying once again, that's that's a fallacy, that's attacking the 1579 01:48:56,240 --> 01:48:59,840 Speaker 1: sources argument to Matt hominam don't deal with the subs 1580 01:49:00,360 --> 01:49:03,680 Speaker 1: of the argument, and it's got to be tough. I 1581 01:49:03,720 --> 01:49:09,799 Speaker 1: could only imagine how difficult it is arguing with someone 1582 01:49:09,840 --> 01:49:15,920 Speaker 1: who just does not listen to objective reality and just 1583 01:49:16,160 --> 01:49:20,760 Speaker 1: will not accept the facts. Oh wait, I know exactly 1584 01:49:20,760 --> 01:49:24,519 Speaker 1: what that's like. I have a wife. I'm just kidding, honey, 1585 01:49:25,280 --> 01:49:30,360 Speaker 1: I'm kidding. So if anybody's got like a spare bedroom 1586 01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:32,439 Speaker 1: tonight for me to sleep in, that that'd be awesome. 1587 01:49:32,479 --> 01:49:34,240 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. You're on the Dan O'Donnell show. 1588 01:49:35,720 --> 01:49:37,240 Speaker 1: All right, folks, I know a lot of you are 1589 01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:41,840 Speaker 1: concerned about me. Wife, said Violin lessens with the kids. 1590 01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:47,479 Speaker 1: I don't think she heard. I kid. I kid because 1591 01:49:47,520 --> 01:49:51,680 Speaker 1: I love well, especially after I always talk about her. 1592 01:49:51,760 --> 01:49:57,840 Speaker 1: She is remarkably insightful, especially when it comes to algorithmic programming, 1593 01:49:58,400 --> 01:50:03,120 Speaker 1: the psychology of news in the digital age, how we 1594 01:50:03,160 --> 01:50:08,439 Speaker 1: get information, information consumption, all of that. You would think 1595 01:50:08,479 --> 01:50:12,160 Speaker 1: she would have gone to school for sociology or sociology 1596 01:50:12,280 --> 01:50:15,920 Speaker 1: or something like that. But no. I got in a 1597 01:50:15,960 --> 01:50:19,719 Speaker 1: little dig about how I'm used to arguing with someone 1598 01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:23,759 Speaker 1: who doesn't go by facts her logic, but rather pure emotion. 1599 01:50:23,840 --> 01:50:26,679 Speaker 1: I have a wife, and I was saying, I'm sleeping 1600 01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:29,920 Speaker 1: on the couch tonight. I'm getting kicked out. She doesn't 1601 01:50:29,920 --> 01:50:33,120 Speaker 1: even need me. She's got the puppy who has graduated 1602 01:50:33,160 --> 01:50:38,439 Speaker 1: to our bed very very quickly. And yeah, I'm going 1603 01:50:38,520 --> 01:50:41,240 Speaker 1: to I'm going to assume I may be kicked out 1604 01:50:41,280 --> 01:50:44,760 Speaker 1: of the bed tomorrow night, regardless. Puppy's got to get 1605 01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:49,120 Speaker 1: rabies shots. So I'm assuming she's going to have a big, 1606 01:50:49,160 --> 01:50:54,840 Speaker 1: elaborate setup that takes up most of my side of 1607 01:50:54,880 --> 01:50:59,920 Speaker 1: the bed. It is difficult, though, I will admit talking 1608 01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:05,160 Speaker 1: with and I've actually got a little introduction into or 1609 01:51:05,160 --> 01:51:07,719 Speaker 1: at least a little taste. I mean, folks, you would 1610 01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:13,400 Speaker 1: not believe some of the just truly putrid messages that 1611 01:51:13,439 --> 01:51:17,080 Speaker 1: I get on a daily basis. I really should limit 1612 01:51:17,880 --> 01:51:23,120 Speaker 1: Facebook messages to just followers, but I can't resist because 1613 01:51:23,240 --> 01:51:25,719 Speaker 1: I have fun. You know. We do a silly little 1614 01:51:25,720 --> 01:51:30,120 Speaker 1: bit where I read angry emails in a British accent 1615 01:51:30,240 --> 01:51:35,400 Speaker 1: to make them sound classy. But everyone, there is very 1616 01:51:35,479 --> 01:51:40,240 Speaker 1: little substantive arguing of any point that I raise. It's 1617 01:51:40,280 --> 01:51:45,400 Speaker 1: invariably you are a Nazi, bleep you all manner of insults, 1618 01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:50,320 Speaker 1: and it really does speak to the fact that the 1619 01:51:50,520 --> 01:51:55,479 Speaker 1: typical persuasion mechanisms that you would think would work on 1620 01:51:55,920 --> 01:51:59,479 Speaker 1: most normal human beings do not work on a whole 1621 01:51:59,479 --> 01:52:03,320 Speaker 1: lot of lips. And I do believe a big part 1622 01:52:03,360 --> 01:52:07,760 Speaker 1: of that is because they have lost the ability to argue. 1623 01:52:07,840 --> 01:52:13,040 Speaker 1: They have lost the ability to logically process information and then, 1624 01:52:13,920 --> 01:52:16,960 Speaker 1: in a manner in which you might be subject to 1625 01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:21,800 Speaker 1: criticism or pushback on your beliefs, present your ideas. This 1626 01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:24,080 Speaker 1: is why, I mean, I guess I'll do it again. 1627 01:52:24,280 --> 01:52:29,760 Speaker 1: I've been challenging pretty openly. Madison Congressman Mark Pokak, Come 1628 01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:34,040 Speaker 1: on this show. We'll go for a full hour. I mean, 1629 01:52:34,320 --> 01:52:39,120 Speaker 1: I'm the biggest talk show in your city, like in 1630 01:52:39,160 --> 01:52:45,000 Speaker 1: your congressional district. Just come on in debate, present your ideas. 1631 01:52:45,760 --> 01:52:49,599 Speaker 1: He's not going to do it because he's not able 1632 01:52:49,680 --> 01:52:55,360 Speaker 1: to logically defend.
