WEBVTT - He Juggles Eggs 0:00:06.720 --> 0:00:10.560 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the 0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:14.850 George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:15.030 --> 0:00:16.350 Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:16.530 --> 0:00:28.120 And now, here's Armstrong and Getty. Armstrong and Getty. He 0:00:28.140 --> 0:00:31.810 can't condemn Hamas. He can't condemn the Muslim Brotherhood. He 0:00:31.850 --> 0:00:34.070 says his home is Egypt. This is all starting at 0:00:34.110 --> 0:00:34.269 my home. 0:00:34.290 --> 0:00:38.010 We are going to move along. We can continue this 0:00:38.050 --> 0:00:39.370 conversation in the second half of the show. 0:00:39.390 --> 0:00:40.750 He doesn't want a home in Florida. He took it 0:00:40.770 --> 0:00:42.150 off the market. I don't know for why, but. 0:00:42.110 --> 0:00:43.810 He just took it off his home in the United 0:00:43.870 --> 0:00:44.529 Arab Emirates. 0:00:45.050 --> 0:00:45.400 We're done. 0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:47.500 Staying in the Middle East. Congressman Rogers, you pledged. 0:00:49.430 --> 0:00:52.810 So that poor moderator in Michigan last night trying to 0:00:52.850 --> 0:00:55.570 deal with El-Sayed and Mike Rogers, who are really getting 0:00:55.610 --> 0:00:58.430 into it, man, that is a no-win situation. If you've 0:00:58.450 --> 0:01:00.170 got two candidates that are going to go at it 0:01:00.230 --> 0:01:02.320 like that and just speak whenever they want, I mean, 0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.760 I don't know what you'd do. I think probably the 0:01:05.780 --> 0:01:06.920 best thing to do is just.... 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:10.300 Well, in the words of Anderson Cooper, let them spum. 0:01:10.459 --> 0:01:10.889 That's what I say. 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:14.060 If you've got a bunch of people on stage, you 0:01:14.230 --> 0:01:19.780 kind of have to because... But if there's only two people, 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:21.500 I think you can you can let them, you know, 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:26.520 come off as. Way too much of a bully and 0:01:26.540 --> 0:01:29.660 didn't let the other one speak or just let them 0:01:30.020 --> 0:01:30.240 let them. 0:01:31.140 --> 0:01:33.490 Unless you're going to put a shock collar on them 0:01:33.510 --> 0:01:35.449 or a compliance belt, I don't know what you're going 0:01:35.470 --> 0:01:37.110 to do. You're going to do your best and let 0:01:37.130 --> 0:01:39.110 them come off to the voters the way they come off. 0:01:39.750 --> 0:01:42.770 I'm less concerned about the niceties of debating than I 0:01:43.069 --> 0:01:45.819 am about an Islamist takeover of the United States. 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:46.140 I'm not. 0:01:46.940 --> 0:01:50.530 Wow. I'm not concerned about the niceties of debating at 0:01:50.610 --> 0:01:52.870 trying to understand what they're saying. And when they're talking 0:01:52.990 --> 0:01:55.110 over each other, I don't even know what they're saying. 0:01:55.610 --> 0:01:59.030 I thought I honestly got Hanson is batting a pinch 0:01:59.050 --> 0:02:01.810 hitting for Michelangelo today, who is off celebrating his anniversary, 0:02:01.830 --> 0:02:04.740 which is lovely. I thought you were playing to the 0:02:04.860 --> 0:02:06.660 audio sources at once, Hanson. 0:02:07.340 --> 0:02:07.700 I know. 0:02:07.740 --> 0:02:09.320 Isn't that what it sounds like? Yeah. 0:02:09.470 --> 0:02:09.650 Yeah. 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:11.910 And that was the debate people were watching in Michigan 0:02:11.930 --> 0:02:13.709 to try to figure out who to vote for. Like 0:02:13.750 --> 0:02:15.870 he didn't turn that on already knowing who you're going 0:02:15.889 --> 0:02:18.010 to vote for. I wonder, I don't know much about 0:02:18.070 --> 0:02:19.910 either of these candidates. I'm going to turn on the 0:02:19.950 --> 0:02:22.250 debate and listen to them have a good, solid discussion 0:02:22.290 --> 0:02:24.410 about this and decide which person I'm for. 0:02:24.990 --> 0:02:28.130 Again, and this time I don't think I'm arguing unfairly. 0:02:28.630 --> 0:02:31.940 You've fallen into the trap of thinking most voters know 0:02:32.190 --> 0:02:38.540 anything about anything. Huge numbers of voters, significant chunks of them, 0:02:38.980 --> 0:02:42.780 maybe a third, don't know anything about Rogers or El 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:43.280 Sayed at this point. 0:02:43.300 --> 0:02:44.160 Even in this race? 0:02:44.720 --> 0:02:45.020 Yes. 0:02:45.180 --> 0:02:47.320 Even in this race in Michigan, you think they don't 0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:51.120 know El Sayed? Wake up and smell the ignorance. You 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.160 don't think they know if El Sayed's, you know, what 0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:59.320 he is? That's something. Then you shouldn't vote. Oh, I 0:02:59.360 --> 0:03:02.340 agree with that wholeheartedly. Okay, so they were. 0:03:04.310 --> 0:03:07.989 So Rogers was claiming, and I didn't look up whether 0:03:08.030 --> 0:03:11.270 this is true or not, that El-Sayed owns a home 0:03:11.290 --> 0:03:12.710 in Egypt, and I don't know if that's a deal 0:03:12.730 --> 0:03:16.010 breaker or not. And then so El-Sayed's getting into Mike Rogers' 0:03:16.050 --> 0:03:18.120 homes and all of his sort of stuff in this clip. 0:03:18.500 --> 0:03:21.080 All right, 30 seconds. We're going to move on after this. 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:21.460 30 seconds. 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.919 How does a guy who's had less than four years 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.880 of work experience, who, by the way, on the campaign 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.940 trail said he had 10, own a luxury property in 0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:33.510 the United Arab Emirates. 0:03:33.850 --> 0:03:34.950 He's worth a million bucks. 0:03:34.970 --> 0:03:37.550 Somebody has to tell me how this math works. A, 0:03:37.610 --> 0:03:40.330 his facts are wrong. Those are lies. But he is 0:03:40.430 --> 0:03:44.430 consistently not telling the truth. Well, let me just say it. 0:03:44.450 --> 0:03:47.600 He's lying. So he lied about being a physician. He 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:50.400 lied now about being an Egyptian citizen or not being 0:03:50.460 --> 0:03:51.320 an Egyptian citizen. 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:52.260 I can't figure out what. 0:03:52.180 --> 0:03:52.840 He is today. 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:57.340 But this impacts what he's trying to tell you where 0:03:57.380 --> 0:03:58.260 he wants you to be. 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:04.620 That's a con man. So what am I supposed to 0:04:04.660 --> 0:04:07.510 do when I watch these debates? Well, sorry, I can't 0:04:07.550 --> 0:04:09.050 get to bed. I'm going to be up for several 0:04:09.090 --> 0:04:12.170 hours doing research on what's true or not of what 0:04:12.210 --> 0:04:15.650 these people said for the next several hours. 0:04:16.710 --> 0:04:19.830 Yeah. Yeah, I guess he does own properties and a 0:04:19.870 --> 0:04:21.170 couple of properties in the Middle East. 0:04:21.850 --> 0:04:25.990 I've got the... I got the main point for you 0:04:26.029 --> 0:04:27.950 from the whole thing from the wide world of news 0:04:28.029 --> 0:04:29.790 I was reading this morning. We'll get to that after 0:04:29.830 --> 0:04:33.460 some more clips. Just just run through these. We'll comment 0:04:33.540 --> 0:04:36.940 after each other, each one of them. Hanson, starting with 91. 0:04:36.940 --> 0:04:39.340 What my friend here just wants to do is he's 0:04:39.380 --> 0:04:42.279 kind of like a glitchy AI chat bot is say 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:44.560 the same thing over and over and over again. 0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.560 But let me tell you this. He has taken money. 0:04:48.150 --> 0:04:51.630 From groups associated and support the Muslim Brotherhood. He has 0:04:51.670 --> 0:04:58.729 taken money from individuals on his campaign who openly support Hamas, Hezbollah, Al-Qaeda. 0:04:59.290 --> 0:05:01.670 He's taken money from the George Soros family. What we 0:05:01.710 --> 0:05:04.120 found out is that this thing goes way back. Apparently 0:05:04.150 --> 0:05:07.460 they paid for his education in Colombia. Now they're paying 0:05:07.500 --> 0:05:10.280 for his campaign. By the way, that's a billionaire, last 0:05:10.339 --> 0:05:11.620 I checked. What degree did I get at Columbia? 0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:12.720 We're out of time. I'm going to give you a 0:05:12.740 --> 0:05:13.659 30-second rebuttal. 0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:15.260 What degree did I get at Columbia? 0:05:15.339 --> 0:05:17.080 I get interviewed by him, not by you. 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:23.810 So one of the problems that everyone has in the 0:05:23.850 --> 0:05:26.130 modern world, unless you sit down and watch the debate 0:05:26.190 --> 0:05:27.330 like a friend of mine did, and I'm going to 0:05:27.350 --> 0:05:29.750 read his text here in a second, is my algorithm 0:05:29.870 --> 0:05:33.750 fed me all stuff that looked favorable to Mike Rogers. 0:05:33.950 --> 0:05:35.990 And I thought, OK, I know what's going on here. 0:05:36.350 --> 0:05:40.770 And then I tried to seek out other clips, which 0:05:41.010 --> 0:05:42.730 it was easy to find him on like MS Now 0:05:42.770 --> 0:05:46.370 and places like that. But God dang it. The biggest 0:05:46.410 --> 0:05:49.390 problem we got maybe in all of media is You 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:52.420 can't flip off your algorithm. Hey, I don't want you 0:05:52.660 --> 0:05:55.400 to just give me clips that back what I already 0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:58.000 think to make me feel good. All right. I want 0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:00.200 to see what actually happened. And that's hard to do. 0:06:00.839 --> 0:06:02.820 It's really hard to do because it wasn't all Mike 0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:05.560 Rogers getting in zingers on El Sayed is not the 0:06:05.580 --> 0:06:07.060 way it worked. But anyway, so I asked a friend 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:08.600 of mine, he said, hey, are you watching the debate? 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:09.760 I said, what is it? 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:10.300 I said, no. 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.370 What is your takeaway? He said, my takeaway is we're effed. 0:06:14.310 --> 0:06:17.030 I tend to be more critical of conservative candidates performance 0:06:17.150 --> 0:06:20.300 because he is a conservative. Rogers started off fumbling a 0:06:20.339 --> 0:06:22.520 little and had a cringy, he's not a physician kind 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:26.760 of doctor moment. Syed's slick, but I'm afraid that the 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.400 left is going to overlook his obvious terrorist ties and sympathies. 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:32.560 Syed is good on the economy and really good at 0:06:32.620 --> 0:06:35.660 dodging his anti-Israel pro-Hamas stance by saying, I want to 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:38.600 support our schools. And what have foreign wars gotten us? 0:06:38.680 --> 0:06:41.100 Always turning it back to things that are very popular 0:06:41.140 --> 0:06:42.550 with like mainstream people. 0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:43.240 Right. 0:06:43.279 --> 0:06:46.120 That's why he's so dangerous. But, yeah, he's campaigned over 0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:49.880 and over and over again with various imams and activists 0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:52.930 who support Hamas and Hezbollah and the Muslim Brotherhood and 0:06:53.390 --> 0:06:57.650 accepted money from organizations that also give money to those organizations. 0:06:57.710 --> 0:07:01.190 It's really, to me, that's the only issue that matters. 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:08.000 And it's an enormous history changing issue. So I agree 0:07:08.020 --> 0:07:10.700 with you on the stuff about algorithms and all, but 0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:14.080 I'm less here as a political analyst assessing who did 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:17.620 better in the debate and more and calling out Al-Sayed 0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:19.810 for that. It's the only thing that matters to me. 0:07:21.140 --> 0:07:23.220 Here's a little more on the whole doctor, are you 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:24.060 a doctor or not thing. 0:07:24.220 --> 0:07:26.540 As a doctor, I understand exactly what's happening. 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:26.940 Not a physician. 0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:27.900 He says I like to say the same thing. 0:07:27.930 --> 0:07:28.570 Not a physician. 0:07:28.650 --> 0:07:29.930 He says I like to say the same thing. He's 0:07:29.970 --> 0:07:32.070 done the same thing over and over and over again. 0:07:32.090 --> 0:07:33.930 You know what that is? Vote to keep your prescription 0:07:33.970 --> 0:07:36.630 drug prices high 19 times. That's just not true. A 0:07:36.740 --> 0:07:40.280 million dollars alone from Big Pharma. Another million dollars. from 0:07:40.300 --> 0:07:42.700 the health insurance corporations. Of course, he is touting their 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:44.820 talking points. This is a guy who has not been 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:47.610 serious about providing people health care his entire career. What 0:07:47.630 --> 0:07:50.250 he has been serious about is making sure that he 0:07:50.270 --> 0:07:53.690 can monetize his time in public office, $ 14 million, two yachts, 0:07:53.970 --> 0:07:56.510 a McMansion in Florida. So at the end of the day, 0:07:56.540 --> 0:07:58.500 I'm a doctor. I want people to have health care. 0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:02.880 At what point is a boat a yacht? Do we 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:04.700 have a working definition of yacht? 0:08:05.300 --> 0:08:05.380 Ah. 0:08:06.260 --> 0:08:11.270 So many of these people running have houses in Florida. 0:08:11.310 --> 0:08:14.250 Is that because of the whole tax situation there? The 0:08:14.330 --> 0:08:19.190 Republican in Kansas who might lose because he lives in Florida. 0:08:19.210 --> 0:08:23.580 Yeah, maybe. Plus, you know, nice real estate. It's warm 0:08:23.620 --> 0:08:24.179 in the wintertime. 0:08:26.320 --> 0:08:28.080 There's one more that I want to get before I 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:30.930 get to some analysis that I think that's really important. Yeah. 0:08:33.500 --> 0:08:35.380 Maybe this, just because it keeps coming up, and this 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.600 is the point of the analysis, 93. So El-Sayed, to 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:41.740 set this up, he has been asked now five times 0:08:41.820 --> 0:08:45.500 in different settings, including in the debate, multiple times, who's 0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:48.640 a bigger threat to the United States, Israel or Iran? 0:08:48.700 --> 0:08:52.320 And he won't answer it. So this sort. 0:08:51.880 --> 0:08:54.339 Of like hypothetical, who's a bigger threat, is a dumb question. 0:08:54.440 --> 0:08:55.360 I'm sorry. 0:08:55.380 --> 0:08:55.600 Dr. 0:08:55.800 --> 0:08:58.160 El-Sayed, we didn't quite, we got the part that you 0:08:58.179 --> 0:09:01.380 thought it was dumb, but we didn't understand or... kind 0:09:01.420 --> 0:09:04.370 of get to that answer. So I'm going to ask 0:09:04.390 --> 0:09:05.890 you again tonight, who do you think is a bigger 0:09:05.910 --> 0:09:08.790 threat to the United States, Israel or Iran? You have 0:09:08.790 --> 0:09:09.330 60 seconds. 0:09:09.390 --> 0:09:10.950 And again, Rick, I'm just going to say that that's 0:09:11.030 --> 0:09:14.610 a ridiculous hypothetical because here's what's happening right now. Our 0:09:15.370 --> 0:09:19.080 ostensible ally in Israel has lobbied us to go to 0:09:19.120 --> 0:09:23.720 war with Iran. We have watched as Iran has responded 0:09:23.900 --> 0:09:26.420 by bombing all kinds of countries in the Middle East 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:31.350 and then choking off the world's energy supply. So This 0:09:31.429 --> 0:09:33.230 is a situation in which I don't think we should 0:09:33.250 --> 0:09:35.570 be apart. I don't want to be pushed into war 0:09:35.650 --> 0:09:36.230 by Israel. 0:09:36.650 --> 0:09:42.000 So here's Mark Halperin's analysis of that whole thing, because 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.120 it started before the debate when El-Sayed was asked, who's 0:09:45.140 --> 0:09:47.640 a bigger threat, Iran or Israel? And that's just a 0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:53.970 dumb hypothetical. Halperin's analysis is someone who, and Halperin bends 0:09:54.030 --> 0:09:57.270 over backwards to be fair, like really goes the extra 0:09:57.309 --> 0:10:00.540 mile to not be a partisan. Someone who won't say 0:10:00.700 --> 0:10:03.359 if Iran or Israel is a greater threat to United 0:10:03.420 --> 0:10:06.809 States security is a not someone who should be in 0:10:06.830 --> 0:10:09.950 the United States Senate. That's a heck of a thing 0:10:09.990 --> 0:10:12.310 to say as a nonpartisan journalist. 0:10:12.730 --> 0:10:13.070 I agree. 0:10:13.150 --> 0:10:13.250 Yeah. 0:10:14.670 --> 0:10:18.230 And B, someone who is in sync with a lot 0:10:18.270 --> 0:10:20.650 of America right now, no one should be in denial 0:10:20.710 --> 0:10:23.780 about either one of those facts. Yeah, I would agree. 0:10:23.900 --> 0:10:27.780 That is a highly troubling situation. Somebody who won't say, 0:10:28.000 --> 0:10:34.300 that is so insane that you're unwilling to say, obviously Iran. 0:10:34.330 --> 0:10:35.930 Iran's one of the biggest threats to the United States 0:10:36.010 --> 0:10:38.849 on planet Earth and have been for a half a century. 0:10:39.130 --> 0:10:42.530 They're the number one sponsor of terror in the world. 0:10:44.179 --> 0:10:46.740 Of course. Working like crazy to develop nuclear weapons, etc. 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:47.220 etc. 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:51.020 Death to America, the constant chanting, yes. Yeah, well, that's 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:56.160 because Al-Sahed's on Iran's side. Constantly pivoting to the high 0:10:56.179 --> 0:10:59.490 prices and stuff. Again, really, really smart politics. Really capable. 0:10:59.530 --> 0:11:00.450 That's why he's so dangerous. 0:11:00.770 --> 0:11:06.170 I can't believe that he doesn't... He won't even, for 0:11:06.530 --> 0:11:12.490 the debate, say... Something along the lines of Iran has 0:11:12.510 --> 0:11:15.430 been an exporter of terror, something like that, hoping that 0:11:15.470 --> 0:11:18.050 his supporters know he's got to say it or something. 0:11:18.170 --> 0:11:18.329 Right. 0:11:18.370 --> 0:11:19.650 He won't even go that far. 0:11:20.550 --> 0:11:22.250 Right. Yeah. 0:11:22.590 --> 0:11:26.150 But that second part is also troubling because he knows 0:11:26.429 --> 0:11:29.230 there's lots of people in this country, lots of young 0:11:29.250 --> 0:11:35.579 people especially, who agree. It's not clear that Iran's a 0:11:35.580 --> 0:11:37.280 bigger threat to the United States than Israel. No way. 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:38.380 In fact, Israel's a bigger threat. 0:11:39.059 --> 0:11:41.850 Partly because the Trump administration has done such a miserably 0:11:41.900 --> 0:11:44.750 incompetent job of messaging about the conflict and the need 0:11:44.780 --> 0:11:45.050 for it. 0:11:45.570 --> 0:11:47.350 Man, we are in a weird spot where those two 0:11:47.390 --> 0:11:52.110 things are true. For a U.S. Senate race? If he 0:11:52.130 --> 0:11:54.910 gets elected, and I just don't think this gets said 0:11:54.970 --> 0:11:59.050 enough in enough places, he will be by far the 0:11:59.090 --> 0:12:02.350 most extreme person we've had in the U.S. Senate maybe ever, 0:12:02.870 --> 0:12:07.189 certainly since the beginning of the 20th century. 0:12:08.110 --> 0:12:10.710 Yeah, miles and miles. Hey, I want to hear 92, Hanson. 0:12:10.790 --> 0:12:11.910 Can you dial that one up? 0:12:12.530 --> 0:12:15.030 Yesterday was October 7th. This is why you should get 0:12:15.290 --> 0:12:20.310 absolutely angry. He could not bring himself to even acknowledge 0:12:20.530 --> 0:12:24.959 the pain, the terrorism, the rape, the murders, cutting off 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:28.929 of women's breasts, putting children in ovens. and killing them 0:12:28.970 --> 0:12:32.390 in front of their families. Could not even muster. And 0:12:32.410 --> 0:12:34.030 he could not even muster. 0:12:34.050 --> 0:12:35.810 I've condemned that, but I didn't turn it into political 0:12:35.870 --> 0:12:36.730 theater like you just did. 0:12:36.750 --> 0:12:38.729 He did not. All right, let me tell you this. 0:12:38.950 --> 0:12:40.410 I just need a response. No, no, no. 0:12:40.429 --> 0:12:42.720 He's interrupted me for about half of my time. 0:12:42.740 --> 0:12:45.220 So I'm so sorry, but I'm not somebody who tries 0:12:45.260 --> 0:12:47.500 to make... political theater out of other people's pain. 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:51.200 Your whole campaign is political theater. And you turn it 0:12:51.260 --> 0:12:51.939 into political theater. 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:52.160 I'm sorry. 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:53.910 Including putting on a white jacket. 0:12:53.950 --> 0:12:55.850 Gentlemen, gentlemen. 0:12:55.970 --> 0:12:59.310 Al-Sayed is on the side of Hamas. He may have 0:12:59.330 --> 0:13:01.370 thought they made some sort of strategic error, but no, 0:13:01.410 --> 0:13:01.930 he's on their side. 0:13:02.010 --> 0:13:02.770 And he may. 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:07.180 Be right in thinking that if I just keep bringing 0:13:07.220 --> 0:13:10.600 it back to grocery prices and gas prices, enough people 0:13:10.660 --> 0:13:12.420 who are like, I don't know anything about the Middle East. 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:14.140 I don't even know what you're talking about. But man, 0:13:14.179 --> 0:13:16.750 gas is expensive. We'll get him over the top. 0:13:18.070 --> 0:13:20.890 And get America one step closer to an English language 0:13:20.929 --> 0:13:24.030 version of Submission, the great French novel. 0:13:24.309 --> 0:13:26.970 Holy crap. Any thoughts on any of that? Text line 415-295-KFTC. 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:44.190 Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:13:45.970 --> 0:13:49.070 And finally, I heard that Starbucks is exploring a takeover 0:13:49.130 --> 0:13:49.830 of Chipotle. 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:53.979 Yeah, customers said they can't wait for the E. coli latte. Oh, 0:13:53.980 --> 0:13:57.870 we have a great show. Give it up for the Roots. 0:13:57.880 --> 0:13:58.520 I'm on my way now. 0:13:58.540 --> 0:13:58.670 The E. 0:13:58.660 --> 0:13:59.550 Coli latte. 0:13:59.590 --> 0:14:03.510 That's not fair to Chipotle. We're going to talk public executions, 0:14:04.309 --> 0:14:07.150 pro or con, coming up in a little bit. Yesterday 0:14:07.210 --> 0:14:09.490 on the One More Thing podcast, we got into something 0:14:09.510 --> 0:14:11.970 that I just became aware of fairly recently. I saw 0:14:12.010 --> 0:14:13.790 it at a football game a couple of weeks ago, 0:14:13.830 --> 0:14:17.840 high school football game. I heard a mom talking about, yeah, 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:19.960 I'm busy making a sign for my son because he's 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:22.640 going to ask a girl to the homecoming dance and 0:14:22.760 --> 0:14:25.200 make a sign. I just pretended I knew what she 0:14:25.220 --> 0:14:27.660 was talking about because I had no idea. And yeah, 0:14:27.700 --> 0:14:29.950 so that's the way you do it now. You have 0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:33.230 to have a big giant sign that you show up 0:14:33.330 --> 0:14:35.070 and everybody knows you're going to do it. And everybody 0:14:35.110 --> 0:14:38.430 has their phones out, including both parents. And you have 0:14:38.490 --> 0:14:40.990 a video of them showing up with a sign and 0:14:41.070 --> 0:14:42.570 flowers to say you want to go to the dance. 0:14:42.590 --> 0:14:44.530 And that way you can post it on Instagram. We 0:14:44.550 --> 0:14:49.000 got this text. Listening to your one more thing, homecoming 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:52.770 posters and proposals things. What a nightmare. My 17-year-old introverted 0:14:52.870 --> 0:14:55.330 daughter would have gone to the dance with a boy 0:14:55.390 --> 0:14:57.410 who wanted to go with her, but she didn't want 0:14:57.490 --> 0:15:00.489 the sign or the public asking. He was pressured to 0:15:00.590 --> 0:15:03.030 do it. She got embarrassed and said no. And now 0:15:03.070 --> 0:15:06.190 the group of friends is going without her because she's 0:15:06.230 --> 0:15:08.700 not part of a couple and the pictures would look 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:15.460 uneven if she went with them without a date. So 0:15:15.500 --> 0:15:20.240 that's nice. And this is for Joe. This is from 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:26.120 the fabulous I'm Just Diane, who responded to this all saying, promposals. 0:15:26.260 --> 0:15:29.500 Yes, Joe, there's a cute name for it. They're called promposals. 0:15:30.260 --> 0:15:32.619 I better grip my head hard with both hands to 0:15:32.660 --> 0:15:36.720 keep it from exploding. It became a thing in the 2010s, 0:15:36.740 --> 0:15:39.560 which is also when Instagram started. Disney made a movie 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:44.580 called Prom in 2011 that heavily featured promposals. Promposals can 0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:48.330 be found all over Instagram, TikTok, giving those who peaked 0:15:48.390 --> 0:15:50.710 in high school something to look back on, I guess 0:15:50.830 --> 0:15:51.850 she said. 0:15:51.870 --> 0:15:53.090 Oh, my. 0:15:53.230 --> 0:15:58.690 Dryly withering is always dying. Yeah, I made my thoughts 0:15:58.750 --> 0:16:03.720 clear on the podcast. I think turning an intense private 0:16:03.820 --> 0:16:07.420 moment into a public spectacle for public approval is a mistake. 0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:08.980 It's always a mistake. 0:16:09.260 --> 0:16:10.940 It's rough all the way around. I mean, because once 0:16:10.980 --> 0:16:14.860 it becomes a thing, then the girl might be like, well, 0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.580 can I say yes to a guy who just asks 0:16:17.660 --> 0:16:20.680 me and doesn't do the sign flowers thing, the promposal thing? 0:16:21.220 --> 0:16:22.120 Does he really care? 0:16:22.260 --> 0:16:25.140 Does that make me look like a lame-o? I would have. 0:16:25.260 --> 0:16:27.440 I mean, I didn't ask anybody out anyway in high school, 0:16:27.460 --> 0:16:31.320 but I definitely wouldn't have if it required a sign 0:16:31.460 --> 0:16:35.110 and doing it around everybody with cameras out to get 0:16:35.180 --> 0:16:40.030 her yes or no. Not a chance. So, you know, 0:16:40.130 --> 0:16:43.450 once again, it's extroverts rule the world. They make all 0:16:43.470 --> 0:16:46.270 the rules because they're fine with it. If you're not 0:16:46.310 --> 0:16:48.609 an extrovert, though, you're like, how do I participate? 0:16:49.570 --> 0:16:53.230 Right, right. And then you go off to college like Cornell. 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:56.860 And things take a dark turn. 0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:57.620 Wow! 0:16:57.640 --> 0:17:01.660 That was an excuse to get this anonymous email on. 0:17:02.230 --> 0:17:04.389 One aspect of the Cornell so-called gang rape is that 0:17:04.410 --> 0:17:07.590 the fact that the men who were not rapists when 0:17:07.609 --> 0:17:10.630 the sex happened because it was consensual only became rapists 0:17:10.670 --> 0:17:12.889 when she changed her mind about what happened. They are 0:17:12.970 --> 0:17:15.510 retroactive rapists. It's the only crime I know of where 0:17:15.530 --> 0:17:17.730 the alleged offender can change from innocent to guilty at 0:17:17.790 --> 0:17:19.490 any time due to a change in the mental state 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:22.480 of another person. For your science-minded listeners with a twisted 0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:25.340 sense of humor, they are Schrodinger's Rapists. 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:26.959 Wow. 0:17:27.700 --> 0:17:30.220 Speaking of dryly hilarious. 0:17:30.260 --> 0:17:33.379 That's really good about a horrifying topic. That's really good. 0:17:33.460 --> 0:17:34.350 Well played, friend. 0:17:34.369 --> 0:17:34.910 Well played. 0:17:35.470 --> 0:17:57.300 Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:17:58.420 --> 0:18:02.510 A firing squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik 0:18:02.530 --> 0:18:06.610 Hassan will be live streamed. This comes after War Secretary 0:18:06.650 --> 0:18:10.490 Pete Hegseth said the execution would be public. Secretary Hegseth 0:18:10.670 --> 0:18:14.240 says it will take place at Fort Hood on December 3rd. 0:18:14.700 --> 0:18:18.060 Hassan was convicted of killing 13 people and injuring 32 0:18:18.060 --> 0:18:21.830 others in a shooting at the military base in 2009. Monday, 0:18:21.869 --> 0:18:25.590 a Pentagon spokesman said President Trump had approved the execution. 0:18:25.930 --> 0:18:28.629 Has Major Hassan made any final requests, reached out to 0:18:28.650 --> 0:18:30.010 the president, anything like that, to your knowledge? 0:18:30.490 --> 0:18:30.910 Don't care. 0:18:32.470 --> 0:18:36.030 We'll see him on December 3rd. That was Pete Hegseth there. 0:18:38.590 --> 0:18:41.810 I don't know if you care about the company you keep. Currently, 0:18:41.990 --> 0:18:45.770 the only other two countries that do public executions, besides 0:18:45.790 --> 0:18:51.670 the United States soon, Iran and Afghanistan. Over the last 0:18:52.490 --> 0:18:56.700 half century, the only countries that have done public executions 0:18:56.780 --> 0:19:02.200 are Iran, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Somalia, and Yemen. 0:19:02.940 --> 0:19:04.100 I don't see your point. 0:19:07.900 --> 0:19:12.090 One reason I can laugh about this is Mark Halpern writes, 0:19:12.109 --> 0:19:13.680 he said, there's no way this is going to happen. 0:19:14.130 --> 0:19:16.290 Cooler heads will prevail and it will not happen. 0:19:16.330 --> 0:19:18.730 So I don't know. May I respond on behalf of 0:19:18.970 --> 0:19:20.790 all of us who think this guy needs to be 0:19:20.850 --> 0:19:25.750 executed immediately and are at least semi-comfortable with a public execution? 0:19:26.050 --> 0:19:29.620 Your little list of our bedfellows there. My official response 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:29.940 is no. 0:19:33.340 --> 0:19:36.320 No, you know, yesterday we talked about capital punishment and 0:19:36.500 --> 0:19:41.239 I'm on the whole a no on capital punishment. But 0:19:41.300 --> 0:19:47.750 not hardcore. It doesn't bother me that these scumbags with 0:19:47.790 --> 0:19:49.980 all their appeals get killed. This one. 0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:50.140 One? 0:19:50.140 --> 0:19:55.900 100% yes. Because he's a combatant in a war, among 0:19:55.980 --> 0:19:59.810
