WEBVTT - Crack You Open! 0:00:04.450 --> 0:00:08.310 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the 0:00:08.350 --> 0:00:12.570 George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:12.760 --> 0:00:14.020 Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:20.380 And now, here's. 0:00:17.940 --> 0:00:21.140 Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:24.460 --> 0:00:28.840 I just came across the scariest paragraph in the Wall 0:00:28.890 --> 0:00:30.510 Street Journal coverage. 0:00:30.330 --> 0:00:34.639 Of the inflation numbers. A scaragraph, if you will. Stay tuned. 0:00:34.860 --> 0:00:38.100 Live from Studio C. Si, senor! 0:00:38.300 --> 0:00:40.540 A dimly lit room deeper than the bowels of the 0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.659 Armstrong and Getty communications compound. And hey, y'all, today we're 0:00:43.700 --> 0:00:47.470 toiling under the title of the show. Get well soon, Mr. 0:00:47.550 --> 0:00:51.669 Pope. Or, if you prefer, the world sets yet another 0:00:51.750 --> 0:00:56.940 record in production of stupidity. I was so depressed looking 0:00:56.980 --> 0:00:59.620 through the big stories of the day and the medium-sized 0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:01.160 stories and some of the small stories, too. 0:01:01.180 --> 0:01:01.320 Just. 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:03.460 We are at peak stupid. 0:01:03.880 --> 0:01:05.700 Makes you want to climb into a tiger pit and 0:01:05.740 --> 0:01:07.459 try to reason with the giant cat. 0:01:09.400 --> 0:01:12.220 That's one reaction. Yes. Some have had. 0:01:12.540 --> 0:01:14.319 And do we all want to live under a Pope 0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:17.290 that doesn't have two full lungs? I just, and during 0:01:17.330 --> 0:01:18.190 these troubled times. 0:01:18.650 --> 0:01:22.950 Wow. That is terrible. That is among the worst things 0:01:22.970 --> 0:01:27.190 you've ever said. Wow. Okay. Um, so here's, that's, that's 0:01:27.250 --> 0:01:29.450 a big pool to draw from. It is. 0:01:29.569 --> 0:01:34.759 It's really, uh, So the inflation numbers just came out 0:01:34.780 --> 0:01:39.119 like just a little bit ago and they're it's going up, 0:01:39.580 --> 0:01:44.090 which isn't good. It isn't good for your life. It 0:01:44.110 --> 0:01:47.390 certainly isn't good for Trump and Republicans to go out 0:01:47.450 --> 0:01:49.040 there because they're going to get the hell beaten out 0:01:49.060 --> 0:01:50.760 of them in the media all day long today over 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:59.360 these the numbers being up. Now, it's up because mostly 0:01:59.610 --> 0:02:01.610 of energy prices. We all know gas is up. We 0:02:01.650 --> 0:02:04.670 all know why it's up. So it's kind of flat 0:02:04.710 --> 0:02:09.489 for everything that's not related to energy prices. But it's 0:02:09.550 --> 0:02:12.369 up enough overall that the Federal Reserve, at least according 0:02:12.389 --> 0:02:14.130 to the Wall Street Journal, will have to consider raising 0:02:14.190 --> 0:02:19.810 interest rates again. Obviously is not something people want. But 0:02:19.850 --> 0:02:22.450 here's here's the paragraph in the Wall Street Journal coverage 0:02:22.470 --> 0:02:25.769 of this that bothers me the most. A key reason 0:02:25.830 --> 0:02:30.770 inflation is stuck above the Fed's target, which is 2%, 0:02:31.050 --> 0:02:34.929 is the strength of American consumers. Buoyed by low unemployment 0:02:34.970 --> 0:02:39.560 and rising stock prices, households continue to spend despite rising prices. 0:02:41.020 --> 0:02:44.200 We're continuing to spend like crazy. 0:02:44.220 --> 0:02:45.100 Yeah. 0:02:45.580 --> 0:02:45.720 Mm-hmm. 0:02:46.410 --> 0:02:48.460 Even with this headwind in front of us. And that 0:02:48.500 --> 0:02:51.680 would be fine if it weren't all the other stats 0:02:51.700 --> 0:02:55.160 that are out there, like record credit card debt, record 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.579 car repossessions, record foreclosures on this and that, just all 0:02:59.660 --> 0:03:03.750 kinds of negative records that go along with it. So 0:03:04.310 --> 0:03:07.210 we seem to be spending in spite, like we're fingers 0:03:07.270 --> 0:03:10.230 in the ears, hand on our credit card, la, la, la, la, la, 0:03:10.290 --> 0:03:11.850 pretending it's not happening, I guess. 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:12.780 I know. 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:15.460 I find the whole thing astounding. Adjusted for inflation or 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.519 spending was up last time I saw 3% or something 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:22.380 like that. Just year over year, just families buying more, 0:03:22.419 --> 0:03:25.380 spending more. I mean, 3% is not a lot. So 0:03:25.419 --> 0:03:29.620 we're looking at inflation saying, yeah, I'll see that 3% 0:03:29.620 --> 0:03:31.299 and raise you three more. 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.600 Yes, everything I buy is more expensive and shocks me. 0:03:35.680 --> 0:03:37.360 But I'll tell you one thing I'm not going to do. 0:03:37.380 --> 0:03:40.280 I am not going to change my lifestyle. Nobody's going 0:03:40.300 --> 0:03:41.040 to make me do that. 0:03:41.650 --> 0:03:43.410 In fact, I'm going to beef it up a little bit. 0:03:43.490 --> 0:03:44.610 I don't care if I have to put it all 0:03:44.670 --> 0:03:47.330 on my credit card or get my car repossessed or 0:03:47.370 --> 0:03:49.350 just not make my car payments, which is at a 0:03:49.410 --> 0:03:51.510 record high. The number of people that are 90 days 0:03:51.570 --> 0:03:53.070 or more behind on car payments. 0:03:54.060 --> 0:03:55.060 That is not good. 0:03:55.100 --> 0:03:57.620 That just seems to have a very House of Cardi 0:03:57.700 --> 0:04:03.960 feeling to it. House of Cardi B. This is an 0:04:04.060 --> 0:04:07.320 interesting paragraph, too, which I do not understand. There's lots 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:10.320 of stuff I don't understand. Long-time listeners are aware of this. 0:04:11.070 --> 0:04:16.080 But economic reporting, I have long said, is the stupidest 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:18.640 reporting we have. And they say all kinds of things 0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.180 without explanation or, you know, they don't know what they're 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:27.370 talking about or. Like always saying it came in higher 0:04:27.410 --> 0:04:32.100 than expectations. Explain to me why that's important. I. I 0:04:32.130 --> 0:04:35.180 get that if I'm a big financial firm or something 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.760 and I'm trying to budget for the next quarter or whatever, 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:39.960 I have to, like, guess where things are going to 0:04:40.000 --> 0:04:41.820 be and I'd have to adjust my sales if I 0:04:41.860 --> 0:04:44.990 was wrong or whatever. But for the average person, inflation 0:04:45.029 --> 0:04:48.570 is up worse than expectations or better than expectations. Does 0:04:48.589 --> 0:04:52.989 that matter to me what the expectations were? First question 0:04:53.070 --> 0:04:53.710 I always have. 0:04:54.470 --> 0:04:57.350 Whose expectations? Were they reasonable? And what does that have 0:04:57.390 --> 0:04:58.990 to do with me? I don't think it has anything 0:04:59.010 --> 0:05:01.370 to do with anything. I had forgotten the numbers were 0:05:01.410 --> 0:05:02.789 coming out, so I'm OK. 0:05:02.970 --> 0:05:05.140 So somebody smart way in on my guess is it 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.679 only matters to Wall Street bigwigs who have to plan 0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:12.560 around this sort of stuff. But for an individual person, 0:05:12.660 --> 0:05:15.060 I don't think the expectations make any difference whatsoever. 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:19.290 Right. I guess maybe it's code for something we don't 0:05:19.350 --> 0:05:22.430 understand as layman. But I would like somebody to do 0:05:23.150 --> 0:05:25.010 unravel that for me. Explain it for us. But listen 0:05:25.050 --> 0:05:25.330 to this. 0:05:25.470 --> 0:05:29.940 The boom in data center construction also contributed to inflation 0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:32.700 by pushing up the prices of semiconductors and other goods. 0:05:33.860 --> 0:05:36.190 I would not have guessed that. The whole data center 0:05:36.230 --> 0:05:37.549 craze drove up inflation. 0:05:37.589 --> 0:05:38.210 Oh, heck yeah. 0:05:38.230 --> 0:05:38.350 Yeah. 0:05:38.510 --> 0:05:39.410 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:05:39.470 --> 0:05:41.909 That's why it takes forever to get computers and watches. 0:05:42.029 --> 0:05:44.890 But there's that many of them being built, even with 0:05:45.010 --> 0:05:47.040 all the controversy around it. 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:49.980 Well, and they use zillions and zillions of chips. 0:05:50.420 --> 0:05:53.159 Yeah, and as it says here, AI profits is so 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.260 enticing that everybody's scrambling to build as many data centers 0:05:56.300 --> 0:05:56.700 as they can. 0:05:57.900 --> 0:06:01.030 Huh. I'll be darned. There you go. There's the inflation news. 0:06:02.930 --> 0:06:03.529 The, um. 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.480 Pope had part of his lung removed yesterday. 0:06:07.180 --> 0:06:10.070 Yeah, I got the lung cancer. And I was unfortunate 0:06:10.190 --> 0:06:12.650 as a nonsmoker. That sucks as a nonsmoker. 0:06:14.070 --> 0:06:14.310 Oh, yeah. 0:06:14.570 --> 0:06:16.849 Because your chances of getting lung cancer when you didn't 0:06:16.870 --> 0:06:19.850 smoke very, very low. And you'd think, what? 0:06:20.330 --> 0:06:20.880 I'm the Pope. 0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:25.120 What's God got? What is the plan here? But I 0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:27.880 thought it was really interesting. I didn't realize until a 0:06:27.940 --> 0:06:30.800 little bit ago. I was listening to some doctor on 0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:34.300 some channel. uh he'll be completely back to normal in 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:36.860 a few days because it was just a scope i 0:06:36.880 --> 0:06:40.140 wasn't picturing that and that not very long ago like 0:06:40.180 --> 0:06:42.200 not very many years ago at all they had to 0:06:42.300 --> 0:06:44.240 crack you wide open and go in there and it 0:06:44.260 --> 0:06:45.940 would have been a hell of a deal to go 0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:47.840 into you and take out part of your lung and 0:06:47.940 --> 0:06:49.860 sew you back up and you know you'd have been 0:06:49.900 --> 0:06:51.780 in bed for now it's just a little scope and 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:53.960 you're back and everything's back to normal a few days 0:06:54.020 --> 0:06:55.719 to take out part of your lung. 0:06:55.970 --> 0:06:58.980 Right that's amazing Lung cancer isn't near the death sentence 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:01.599 it used to be either. Depending on the case, there's 0:07:01.740 --> 0:07:04.160 pretty effective treatments. I have a friend who's dealing with 0:07:04.220 --> 0:07:06.160 lung cancer right now and has been for some time. And, 0:07:06.720 --> 0:07:08.260 you know, it kind of ebbs and flows, but he's 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:11.830 alive and kicking. Well, yeah, but the cancer aside, taking 0:07:11.910 --> 0:07:14.150 out part of your lungs seems like it would be 0:07:14.230 --> 0:07:17.750 a big deal. Apparently it's not. They just go in 0:07:17.770 --> 0:07:19.850 there with a tiny little hole and we took it out. 0:07:20.610 --> 0:07:24.870 You can play tennis this weekend if you want. Oh, fantastic. Craziness. 0:07:25.090 --> 0:07:27.670 Is it? The Pope's a big tennis player. Is that 0:07:27.690 --> 0:07:30.210 easy to recover from? That's what they said. Seriously? 0:07:30.290 --> 0:07:30.470 Yeah. 0:07:30.510 --> 0:07:32.490 Really? Just in a couple of days, yeah. I'll be damned. 0:07:32.570 --> 0:07:34.990 And not long ago, it would have been a huge deal, 0:07:35.050 --> 0:07:35.910 cracking you open. 0:07:36.170 --> 0:07:38.130 Yeah, yeah. So it's a good deal I've known. Katie 0:07:38.150 --> 0:07:40.690 wants you to stop saying that. Yeah, stop saying cracking 0:07:40.710 --> 0:07:44.240 you open. Like an ape. Right, right. Yeah. Having to 0:07:45.140 --> 0:07:48.080 do a major surgery is the way, you know, civilized 0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:48.890 people would put it. 0:07:50.460 --> 0:07:52.940 I guess I'm trying to make it more dramatic. And 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.980 that's fairly accurate also. You're causing people conniptions, though. I mean, 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.740 it's too heavy-handed. Well, the good news is they don't 0:07:59.800 --> 0:08:02.140 have to do that anymore. Oh, my gosh. 0:08:02.220 --> 0:08:05.000 They don't have to saw him open and drag his 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.440 lung out into the open air and tear it with 0:08:07.500 --> 0:08:10.000 a sharp knife and rip some of it off and 0:08:10.610 --> 0:08:12.880 hurl it to a dog who's waiting to eat it 0:08:12.940 --> 0:08:18.770 in a carter. It's no longer major surgery. There, you see? 0:08:19.070 --> 0:08:20.830 Oozing and tubes. Okay. 0:08:22.380 --> 0:08:24.820 Oh my lord i think i just saw is that 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:26.780 right or is that a look-alike i looked up a 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:29.740 tv and i think i just saw kimberly guilfoyle doing 0:08:29.780 --> 0:08:33.400 some sort of ad for something is she a pitch 0:08:33.460 --> 0:08:38.260 person for some no she couldn't yeah for greek builders 0:08:38.370 --> 0:08:42.130 that's the problem yeah she oh my gosh what a 0:08:42.170 --> 0:08:43.990 funny story and and and we need to get into 0:08:44.030 --> 0:08:46.830 this later but When all of this broke, she called 0:08:46.850 --> 0:08:48.970 the White House and says, that's AI generated. 0:08:49.010 --> 0:08:52.350 Those aren't my texts. And they said, yeah, right. Yeah, 0:08:52.410 --> 0:08:53.590 we know you, please. 0:08:53.690 --> 0:08:55.830 I like the quote from Trump yesterday when he's asked 0:08:55.870 --> 0:08:59.380 about her. He said, I don't know her that well. 0:08:59.410 --> 0:09:06.280 I guess she dated my son for a while. That's hilarious. 0:09:06.760 --> 0:09:08.780 I guess she dated my son for a while, a 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:12.429 long time ago. They were engaged for four years. She 0:09:12.450 --> 0:09:16.479 was at like every family, everything. Uh, which, you know, 0:09:16.540 --> 0:09:19.120 I'm not a guilt by association. I don't think the 0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.700 fact that she did this got anything to do with 0:09:21.740 --> 0:09:25.099 him really. But, um, that's a funny thing to say. 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.780 Oh boy. And the whole, it was AI created. Oh, 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:29.459 how weak. 0:09:31.100 --> 0:09:33.610 As reading in, uh, the newsletter I read every morning 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.710 from Mark Halpern, he said the reality of the life 0:09:36.790 --> 0:09:40.150 change she's experiencing is going to hit her soon. And 0:09:40.170 --> 0:09:43.520 then what she has to say about. The Trump family 0:09:43.540 --> 0:09:46.699 or the Trump operation will be interesting. But yeah, she's 0:09:46.740 --> 0:09:49.300 about to find out that whole ride because she's been 0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:52.090 on a ride for a long time. Wife, the mayor, 0:09:52.470 --> 0:09:53.650 and he gave it the Trump orbit. 0:09:53.730 --> 0:09:54.150 Big deal. 0:09:54.190 --> 0:09:58.230 Speaking at giant conventions, people chanting your name, flying on 0:09:58.290 --> 0:10:01.270 Air Force. All that stuff is. over for the rest 0:10:01.309 --> 0:10:04.460 of your life and the money that comes with it. 0:10:05.510 --> 0:10:08.520 And her skill set is fading by the day as 0:10:08.559 --> 0:10:12.280 well so yeah wow what is her next chapter i 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.000 tell how she will have a tell-all book. 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:18.949 Well, that's what the concern is, apparently, from the Trump people, 0:10:19.030 --> 0:10:22.809 is that she's going to, out of anger and need 0:10:22.830 --> 0:10:25.450 to make money, start talking. Now, she could go on 0:10:25.490 --> 0:10:28.730 the county fair circuit and fit three oranges in her mouth. 0:10:28.850 --> 0:10:31.650 At one time. That's a good point. I think the 0:10:31.670 --> 0:10:36.260 tell-all book is much more likely. Boy, is she well-positioned 0:10:36.300 --> 0:10:39.500 to spill some just cans of beans. Don't you think 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.140 she could do that, Katie? I just feel like that's... 0:10:41.790 --> 0:10:42.309 County fairs? 0:10:42.590 --> 0:10:44.430 Yeah, like one of the carnival games. She stands there 0:10:44.450 --> 0:10:46.290 with her mouth open and people have to throw the balls. 0:10:46.309 --> 0:10:49.410 Certainly like four or five golf balls. That's demeaning. 0:10:49.429 --> 0:10:51.010 I was thinking more of a stage and you walk 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:53.160 out and a band plays and then one orange, two orange, 0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:54.620 and you think there's no way she can get another 0:10:54.660 --> 0:10:55.080 orange in there. 0:10:55.340 --> 0:10:59.800 And then she does. Right. You got the hype man 0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:01.900 talking to the crowd. Do you think she can do it? 0:11:02.540 --> 0:11:05.000 Cheer good and loud. She's going to try. Need louder 0:11:05.020 --> 0:11:07.170 than that. And she takes that third orange and. 0:11:11.510 --> 0:11:11.730 Wow. 0:11:12.050 --> 0:11:21.520 See, this is childlike. It's idiotic. You could be a 0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:24.819 carnival hype man. Oh, that's my next chapter. 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.700 Okay, let's start the show officially. We just brought you 0:11:27.740 --> 0:11:30.240 a lot of news right there. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's 0:11:30.260 --> 0:11:33.000 Joe Getty on this. It is Wednesday, October 14th, the 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:35.760 year 2026. We're Armstrong and Getty, and we approve of 0:11:35.780 --> 0:11:36.220 this program. 0:11:36.770 --> 0:11:39.330 All right, let's begin. According to FCC rules and regulations, 0:11:39.350 --> 0:11:40.370 here we go, at Mark. 0:11:40.809 --> 0:11:44.130 You led the government's hunt for this for 16 years. 0:11:45.030 --> 0:11:49.710 Simple question. Are we alone? No, Brett, we're not. Humanity 0:11:49.890 --> 0:11:52.390 is not the only intelligent life in the universe, nor 0:11:52.630 --> 0:11:54.780 do we know the intent of the non-human intelligent life 0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:56.260 that's here. It's very concerning. 0:11:58.260 --> 0:12:00.680 If you don't recognize the voice, that's Brett Baier, Special 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:03.700 Report Fox, who's one of the most serious journalists in 0:12:03.740 --> 0:12:07.570 the world. Fact that he had a guest on says, oh, absolutely. 0:12:07.590 --> 0:12:10.330 There are spaceships. I've seen the aliens and we're not alone. 0:12:11.460 --> 0:12:14.280 This is not made news. So we'll delve into that 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:17.100 a little bit more. And also, oh, my gosh, some 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:19.800 of the financial stuff that's come out about Ilhan Omar. 0:12:19.820 --> 0:12:21.620 Are you kidding me? 0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:21.720 Yeah. 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:27.040 Wow. No wonder they raided her house. She's all sorts 0:12:27.100 --> 0:12:29.440 of kinds of hustler. I mean, it's just. 0:12:29.900 --> 0:12:29.980 Yeah. 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.830 Yeah. We've got headlines coming up next. Stay here. 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:43.920 Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:12:46.050 --> 0:12:49.510 Yeah, there's a lot to get to today. 0:12:49.690 --> 0:12:52.809 As usual, the news flow is overwhelming, so we look 0:12:52.830 --> 0:12:56.170 forward to talking about it. And overwhelmingly depressing, so we're 0:12:56.210 --> 0:12:59.920 dreading talking about it. Stay with us. I've got a 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:02.679 very strong... Well, I don't want to steal any Katie's thunder. 0:13:03.210 --> 0:13:06.170 Maybe I'll withhold my comment until after we figure out 0:13:06.270 --> 0:13:09.420 who the hell is reporting what. It's the lead story 0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:10.439 with Katie Green. Katie. 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:14.240 Tis all inflation on the Alphabet Network's NBC. 0:13:14.660 --> 0:13:16.890 What's fueling inflation? Fuel. 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:21.360 CNBC, the latest inflation data is expected to show price 0:13:21.460 --> 0:13:27.640 increases are accelerating. And CNN, inflation worsened last month to 3.7% 0:13:27.640 --> 0:13:29.660 and a sign that prices remain elevated. 0:13:29.890 --> 0:13:33.030 The fact that inflation is up and it's mostly fuel 0:13:33.370 --> 0:13:37.370 is going to cause Trump to double down on the whole. 0:13:38.790 --> 0:13:41.970 We should buy diesel from Russia and Ukraine needs to 0:13:42.010 --> 0:13:44.110 stop attacking their refineries stuff. 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:48.640 At the point that Trump announces we've secured a great 0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:53.220 new deal, we're buying oil from Iran now, that's when 0:13:53.260 --> 0:13:56.340 I check out. That's the next step. That or Satan. 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:56.880 I don't know. 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:04.210 And speaking of Russia, ABC, 600,000 without power in Ukraine 0:14:04.309 --> 0:14:08.870 as Russia launches massive attack amid Trump's energy ceasefire. 0:14:09.530 --> 0:14:11.930 That's kind of a funny last phrase. Who was that headline? 0:14:11.950 --> 0:14:12.600 ABC. 0:14:12.630 --> 0:14:19.560 ABC. Amid Trump's energy ceasefire. New York Times. They're still 0:14:19.660 --> 0:14:24.260 firing and they haven't ceased. New York Times. 0:14:24.680 --> 0:14:28.810 Cornell bans fraternity parties and adds sexual assault investigation. 0:14:28.830 --> 0:14:29.650 Oh, that makes sense. 0:14:29.690 --> 0:14:34.530 That makes sense. Ban all fraternity parties because of that. 0:14:34.850 --> 0:14:36.450 What happened a couple of years ago and you're not 0:14:36.470 --> 0:14:38.130 even sure what happened. And that makes perfect sense. 0:14:38.970 --> 0:14:40.450 I read a great piece by a woman writer in 0:14:40.470 --> 0:14:42.810 the free press talking about how Cornell has been at 0:14:42.850 --> 0:14:45.490 war with fraternities for quite some time and past president 0:14:45.530 --> 0:14:48.630 tried to ban them and or just regulate them to death. 0:14:49.150 --> 0:14:52.290 And this gal was pointing out that, you know, for 0:14:52.350 --> 0:14:58.740 the excesses of fraternity life, which exists, but the way 0:14:58.770 --> 0:15:02.260 they're defined is a lot like when the woke crowd 0:15:02.300 --> 0:15:06.620 defines all masculinity is toxic masculinity. In a world where 0:15:06.700 --> 0:15:10.680 boys are lonely, disattached, they don't have close relationships, they're 0:15:10.700 --> 0:15:15.830 kind of at sea, fraternity life has a lot of positives. Anyway, 0:15:15.850 --> 0:15:18.310 more on that to come. CBS News. 0:15:19.090 --> 0:15:23.610 AI linked to 84% of ransomware attacks. 0:15:25.390 --> 0:15:28.070 Wow. Yeah, why would you write your own code at 0:15:28.130 --> 0:15:32.480 this point? This is a hell of a headline. New 0:15:32.500 --> 0:15:32.940 York Post. 0:15:33.710 --> 0:15:38.320 Drunk husband opens fire in Indiana IHOP, chases cook with 0:15:38.400 --> 0:15:40.640 a knife while accusing him of sleeping. 0:15:40.280 --> 0:15:46.640 With his wife. That's oddly reminiscent of another story. It is. 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:48.640 It was a Waffle House, but this is an IHOP. 0:15:48.740 --> 0:15:50.890 But similar story, you're right. Same couple. 0:15:50.950 --> 0:15:56.690 They got banned from the Waffle House. Different breakfast place, yes. Right, yeah, yeah. 0:15:57.790 --> 0:15:58.410 From page six. 0:15:59.070 --> 0:16:03.410 Sylvester Stallone calls himself an idiot for doing his own 0:16:03.530 --> 0:16:06.830 stunts and details nine back surgeries. 0:16:07.310 --> 0:16:07.810 Yeah. 0:16:08.510 --> 0:16:11.760 There's actually some pretty interesting stuff from apparently from his book. 0:16:11.820 --> 0:16:13.000 I'm not going to read his book, but he's been 0:16:13.020 --> 0:16:13.840 doing a lot of interviews. 0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:16.820 You know, I might. I've seen a handful of interviews. 0:16:17.020 --> 0:16:22.510 Just really, really interesting, compelling stuff. But, you know, read 0:16:22.530 --> 0:16:22.970 what you want. 0:16:24.510 --> 0:16:25.130 Study finds. 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:29.520 Could a handful of pistachios mean better sleep? 0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:31.380 Scientists make the case. 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:33.020 All right. 0:16:35.420 --> 0:16:36.720 All right. 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:40.620 What am I doing with them? Eating them? You're juggling them. No, 0:16:40.640 --> 0:16:45.160 you're going to eat them. Right. Clearly. Put them under 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:45.640 your eyelids. 0:16:47.020 --> 0:16:51.160 And finally, from the Babylon Bee, Trump approves Fort Hood 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:54.240 shooter being tied to a bomb and dropped on Iran. 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:57.570 Yeah, I'd be fine with it. Yeah. There you go. 0:16:57.630 --> 0:17:00.609 We got the inevitable smear the bullets with pig blood. 0:17:01.510 --> 0:17:01.670 Right. 0:17:01.750 --> 0:17:05.859 References. A classic bacon grease. Yes, it is. It's throwback. 0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:10.420 So good to see Ilhan Omar's original financial disclosure said 0:17:10.619 --> 0:17:14.280 that she was worth thirty two million dollars. Then she 0:17:14.340 --> 0:17:16.700 refiles it and says we're worth one hundred and twenty 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:22.199 five thousand dollars. Well, that's a typo. How do you 0:17:22.220 --> 0:17:25.620 become worth thirty five million dollars as a congressperson immigrant? 0:17:26.530 --> 0:17:30.250 Plus, the Kelly Clarkson mechanical bird saga grinds on. We'll 0:17:30.410 --> 0:17:31.430 update you with the latest. 0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:44.140 Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:17:46.940 --> 0:17:50.480 On Monday morning, Homeland Security conducted a pre-dawn raid. 0:17:50.280 --> 0:17:51.720 On the home of Ilhan Omar. 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:59.419 When the feds knocked, she panicked and tried to flush 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:00.680 her brother down the toilet. 0:18:03.869 --> 0:18:08.710 What? That's the evidence, you see. 0:18:08.950 --> 0:18:11.129 So I've got a story you may or may not 0:18:11.150 --> 0:18:13.620 have heard with a twist that you probably have not 0:18:13.680 --> 0:18:20.780 heard about Ilhan Omar. So the numbers reported yesterday were 0:18:20.820 --> 0:18:23.429 the part of the investigation was all around Ilhan. Her 0:18:23.490 --> 0:18:26.130 original congressional filing, you have to put in like what 0:18:26.190 --> 0:18:30.580 all your net worth, basically. And it was between 30 0:18:30.580 --> 0:18:33.460 and 35 million dollars. That's a hell of a net worth. 0:18:33.500 --> 0:18:35.580 And I realize it's attached to her husband. Wasn't her husband. 0:18:36.700 --> 0:18:38.619 Which husband are we talking about here? Is this a 0:18:38.660 --> 0:18:40.440 Somali dude that came over here also? 0:18:41.140 --> 0:18:44.170 She changes them like I change socks. But no, this 0:18:44.210 --> 0:18:46.870 guy's a campaign staff or former campaign staff. It's worth 0:18:46.869 --> 0:18:51.030 30 to 35 million dollars. Oh, maybe anyway. 0:18:51.270 --> 0:18:54.340 And then the most the recent filing, it was between 0:18:54.340 --> 0:18:56.920 60 and one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. So 0:18:57.520 --> 0:18:59.719 our net worth is either thirty two million dollars or 0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:03.480 sixty five grand. We're either the richest people you've ever 0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:06.179 met in your life. You've probably never met anybody as 0:19:06.240 --> 0:19:08.899 rich as I am in your life or I am 0:19:09.060 --> 0:19:12.429 quite poor by the standard of somebody our age. 0:19:13.109 --> 0:19:13.270 Yeah. 0:19:13.630 --> 0:19:15.950 One of the two. Somewhere between those two things. 0:19:15.970 --> 0:19:18.459 But the most interesting thing to me about that is, 0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:20.900 and that's quite the discrepancy. I don't know how they're 0:19:20.920 --> 0:19:26.330 going to figure that out, but. the some nonpartisan congressional 0:19:26.410 --> 0:19:29.130 board that looks into this sort of stuff about congresspeople 0:19:29.510 --> 0:19:34.370 voted five to one to drop the investigation earlier this 0:19:34.410 --> 0:19:38.470 year you know what that's all about that's the independent 0:19:38.510 --> 0:19:41.750 board all agree we are nonpartisan we all agree we 0:19:41.810 --> 0:19:45.129 don't want to investigate other congresspeople on how all of 0:19:45.190 --> 0:19:48.260 us come to washington D.C. and make whatever we make 0:19:48.260 --> 0:19:52.040 $ 180, 000 a year but leave millionaires. We don't want any 0:19:52.100 --> 0:19:55.859 investigations about that whatsoever. That we all come here, you know, 0:19:55.880 --> 0:19:58.000 the old saying, to do good and end up doing well. 0:19:59.780 --> 0:20:01.940 Of course they voted to not look into her because 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:03.420 if you look into her, you got to look into 0:20:03.740 --> 0:20:05.740 lots of people. How'd you end up somewhere? How are 0:20:05.790 --> 0:20:08.250 you so rich? I read about your house the other day. 0:20:08.290 --> 0:20:10.970 How do you own that home as a congressperson? Yeah, 0:20:11.010 --> 0:20:12.530 they don't want anybody looking into any of that. 0:20:13.230 --> 0:20:17.020 Right, right. When this story first came out about the 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:20.180 wildly gyrating net worth stuff, I looked into it a 0:20:20.180 --> 0:20:22.940 little bit and she explained it. Well, my husband has 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.040 an interest in a winery and it's very hard to 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:28.050 ascertain what the value of blah, blah, blah. 0:20:28.070 --> 0:20:30.230 You think you could nail it down somewhere between 60 0:20:30.230 --> 0:20:31.510 grand and 32 million? 0:20:32.090 --> 0:20:33.590 I thought I'll never get to the bottom of this. 0:20:33.630 --> 0:20:35.710 I'm not worried about it. She's an Islamist who hates 0:20:35.830 --> 0:20:40.610 America and lied in her immigration documents. So that's plenty 0:20:40.650 --> 0:20:40.850 for me. 0:20:40.869 --> 0:20:43.290 To me, the headline of the story was, of course, 0:20:43.390 --> 0:20:48.640 Congress doesn't investigate other Congress people about their financial, where 0:20:48.660 --> 0:20:50.080
