President 15 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: of the United States said, hamas will disarm or we 16 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: will disarm them? Who's we? Who is we? Violently? Violently 17 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: if necessary? He said, who do you think we is? Well? 18 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: And they're not. They are one not going to disarm 19 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: as their recent actions have proven. Who's that rough shod 20 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: through we? Got some We've got some serious pronoun problems. 21 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: My pronoun is he he he him. But uh, we 22 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 1: got going to take a while if we have to 23 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: break down the grammar of every sentence. Well, who's they 24 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: I mean, do you mean like every single last dead 25 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: ender or do you mean like just the bulk of 26 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: the organization? Yeah, disarmed? The bulk of the organization's not 27 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: going to disarm, right, Yeah, the military the part that matters. 28 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: The fat rich guys and cutter don't matter. But the 29 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: fighters on the ground, they absolutely will not disarm. They 30 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: are trying to consolidate power as quickly as they can 31 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: and show they are still in charge. They're rounding people up, 32 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: executing them. It's fights in the streets. Well do you 33 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: are for you to be satisfied, and it's all about 34 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 1: whether or not Joe getting satisfied with right peace deal 35 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: for you to be satisfied, does every dead ender have 36 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: to be disarmed? Because I've just been thinking, well, you know, 37 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: the bulk of them, like the you know, any organized 38 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: group of them, Like I keep using the example of 39 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: the Civil War. If you got random Confederates out there 40 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: in the woods who still want to fight on, that's 41 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: not the same as like organized militias led by a 42 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: general somewhere. Right. Yeah, it's there's kind of a spectrum of, uh, 43 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: you know, how well armed are they, how well organized 44 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: are they, how ambitious are they? And once you get 45 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: past a certain point in the spectrum, it's no longer 46 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:02,079 Speaker 1: a military problem. It's a policing problem. They're more like 47 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: a violent gang. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly at that point, Yeah, 48 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: you can have a functioning society. Okay, so I just 49 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 1: you've defined they, Then who's we? What sentence are we 50 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: talking about? Oh? Back to your who's way? The coalition 51 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: of the welling? Well, does that include the United States? Well? See, 52 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 1: that's the tricky part, and that's why the Trump Plan, 53 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: while a great breakthrough, has got a rocky road ahead. 54 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 1: Initially it's got to be Israel. Well, I think guys 55 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: have been whooping ass already because there's no multi country 56 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: Commission of Peace in place yet. I was just reading 57 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: from the newsletter I read from every day from Mark 58 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: Alpern and the wide world of news. Is there going 59 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: to be a genuine peacekeeping force or not, which you 60 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: just mentioned, Who will be in it? Under what authority 61 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: and under what terms of engagement hard but essential questions. 62 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: I would say, yeah, and they best realize whoever's in 63 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: that force, they're there to fight. It's not going to 64 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: be like, you know, the passive, stupid, useless un observers 65 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: who has below is building armaments one hundred yards from 66 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: their lookout towers. No, they're going to be there to 67 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: fight because Hamas again, by the one hundred thousands, I 68 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: don't know, they're not going to give up their arms. 69 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: They're going to fight until they're dead. I just feel 70 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: like if Barack Obama or Joe Biden had said we 71 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: will disarm them, the part of the Fox crowd would 72 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: be up at arms. If you'll pardon the expression over 73 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 1: oh so more soldiers in the Middle East fighting other 74 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: people's wars and you said we right right, Well, it 75 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: absolutely deserves clarification. Your point is well taken, and we 76 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: will disarm them, perhaps violently if necessary. Okay, well that's 77 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,559 Speaker 1: a heck of a thing. Perhaps Trump is speaking French, 78 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: we is, and yes, yes, will disarm them. They probably not. 79 00:04:54,360 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: They've still got twenty one bodies or twenty two. Uh. 80 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: One of the bodies that Hamas turned over turned out 81 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: to not be one of the hostages. My guess would 82 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: be Hamas doesn't have It's not like they've got a 83 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: careful cataloging of bodies system. One, they don't care. Two 84 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 1: they've been getting the but Jesus bombed out of them 85 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: for two years and moving from hole to hole. Right, 86 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: they didn't care in the first place. So they got 87 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: all kinds of bodies of Palestinians and Israelis from this 88 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: time around and anybody else they've snatched over the many decades. 89 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: They got all kinds of body parts, right, Yeah, I 90 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: would agree. So Egypt's going to go in there. Egypt 91 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: just offered to go in there and help them find bodies. 92 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: What's that process going to be like twenty two those 93 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: twenty two What percentage of those twenty two are ever 94 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: going to be found and identified and brought back? I'd 95 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: be surprised if it's half Oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah, 96 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: if five are, I would be pleasantly surprised. Yeah crazy, yeah. Anyway, 97 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: So why were you why were you considering making Jijing 98 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: ping the general man? The trade war preposturing, the pregaming 99 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: is getting really intense, with Trump announcing one hundred percent 100 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: tariff chesion being saying you can't have any rare earth minerals, 101 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: and the threats are going back and forth, hot and heavy. 102 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: There's you mentioned yesterday how weird this is to have 103 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: an enemy that you're so economically tied into, Like we 104 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: weren't economically tied into the Soviet Union or them us. 105 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: It's just yeah, not a bit. But with China, as 106 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: we all know, we're very tied in to the fact that, 107 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: like at the time COVID hit, we got all of 108 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: our drugs from there, and all our rare earth minerals 109 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: and all every piece of thing you buy at the 110 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: store or order on Amazon comes from China. That's not 111 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: the way it was when we were at war with 112 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union. To that point, there is an interesting 113 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: story in the Financial Times today a couple of Brits 114 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: got caught spying for China. 115 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: Mm. 116 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: They're are British dudes with British names. It got caught 117 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: spine for China, and that got dismayed because the government 118 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: was unwilling to say that they were spying on behalf 119 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: of an enemy. They didn't want to call China an 120 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: enemy right of Great Britain. And you know that that's 121 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: to the point you were talking about yesterday. They don't 122 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: want to call China an enemy or the enemy because 123 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: of all our economic tize. Yeah, a labor the Labor 124 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: secretary sabotaged the trial of two alleged spies by refusing 125 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: to brand China an enemy. The Telegraph was reporting about 126 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: a week ago they were accused of passing information about 127 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: the government's foreign policy to a high ranking member of 128 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: the Chinese government, and Keers Starmer's spokesman said it was 129 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: extremely disappointing and gravely concerning that they wouldn't face trial. 130 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: But then it turns out the government with drew as 131 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: star witness who had been tasked with testifying the China 132 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: was an enemy of the UK, said no, we're not 133 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: going to We don't want to say that out loud. 134 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: If major Western the spy go free. Yeah, if major 135 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: were stern powers aren't willing to call China an enemy 136 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: but enemy early, that's a problem. That's something right, And 137 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: the fact that they couldn't come up with a way 138 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: to verbally tap dance around say well, we are friends 139 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: and work with China in many different ways, but yes, 140 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: by the strict definition of foreign policy, you know, Section 141 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: one thirty three point eight. Yes, China is in this 142 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: instance an enemy, perhaps an unfortunate word. I mean, you 143 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: could fall all over yourself bowing and scraping, but still 144 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: prosecuting spies. But they are so afraid of China they didn't. 145 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: How shocking is that much different topic. My dishwasher, it's 146 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: not really mine, I live in a rental, doesn't do anything, 147 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: you know. And Trump's always complaining about modern shower heads 148 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: and dishwashers and washing machines because of the green regulations. 149 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: The dishwasher doesn't do anything unless you wash the dishes 150 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: by hand almost completely. You haven't accomplished anything. A dishwasher 151 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: that washes no dishes is not a dishwak. I appear 152 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: to be the dishwasher. Yes, it is a box. It 153 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: is a dirty dish storage box. It runs for like 154 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: an hour to try to save energy somehow, and that 155 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: doesn't really do anything. 156 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 3: I know. 157 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: It's very frustrating. Got some great stuff on the whole 158 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: climate change Datebockle, and how phony it is, and how 159 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,959 Speaker 1: the entire world, the Western world anyway, is backtracking. Even 160 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: China is from electric vehicles because it just doesn't make sense. 161 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: But so did Trump roll back regulations on that can 162 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: maytag now make a dishwasher like they used to make them, like, 163 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: blast the crap out of them, Blast the crap out 164 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: of your dishes, boiling hot water, powerful chemicals. Right, don't 165 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: you open it up? Your dish has been completely dissolved 166 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: to gear it back a little bit. I don't know that, 167 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: I hope so Greta's unhappy about our disch.

Hmm. Yeah, I've seen 197 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: that denied in the liberal media. But I didn't find 198 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: the case they made very convincing. They're citing statistics that 199 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: kind of didn't apply. It's funny that they would go 200 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: to the trouble to deny that because the why does 201 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: that bother you?

I will never say 230 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 1: anything that sounds anything like defending Hamas.

The two biggest economies in the world are 292 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: going at it, and because of the Middle East stuff 293 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: and everything like that, it's been ignored.

Okay, they're mislabeled, 303 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: I guess because we're gonna talk about China, China trying 304 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: to drive a wedge with soybeans and other things with 305 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: this whole trade war thing that we got going on. 306 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: And I came across this other headline that just landed 307 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: from the Washington Times, China's new export export controls on 308 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 1: rare earth minerals that they announced last week and products 309 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: made from them reflect a bid to dominate world markets 310 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 1: for the strategic material since the nineteen nineties, and they're 311 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: using it in their trade war. And then the story 312 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: that we did not hear China trying to drive a 313 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 1: wedge over soy beans, which is an economic hostile act. 314 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: Also Trump announcing after the Rare Earth deal, okay, one 315 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 1: hundred percent tariff on everything from China starting November first. 316 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: And that's where we are today. Yeah, shij In Ping's 317 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: betting we can't take a long trade war with them, 318 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 1: according to people close to Beijing's decision making who apparently 319 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: are talking to the American media or something. Right, that's interesting, Yeah, 320 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: how are people close to Jijing being talking to the 321 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal? But go on. China's holding a firm line, 322 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: according to the journal, because of its conviction that an 323 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: escalating trade war will tank US market as it did 324 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: in April after Trump announced his Liberation Day tariffs, and 325 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: China expects the prospect of another market meltdown ultimately will 326 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: force Trump to negotiate and an expected summit with she 327 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: late this month. That's not a bad theory from China 328 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: that we are not just Trump, but the whole country. 329 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 1: We are so day by day short term thinkers with 330 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: oh my god, this is terrible or oh my god, 331 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:30,160 Speaker 1: this is great. That if the market's tank, uh, there'll 332 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: be all kinds of political pressure to do something different. 333 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 1: Whereas obviously in a dictatorship, Shiji Pink can hold the 334 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,400 Speaker 1: line on anything as long as he wants right, yeah, 335 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: orrow whatever, wait for whatever to deprive the people of 336 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: whatever does. So that's a pretty good plan. China restricts 337 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: a bunch of things, burn soybeans, rare earth metals. We 338 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: try to retaliate the market's tank. We chicken out, and 339 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: it wouldn't just be taco Trump always chickens out. It'd 340 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: be the whole country would chicken out, and China would 341 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,959 Speaker 1: hold firm. That's not a bad theory, no, as they 342 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: continue to make progress toward being the superpower they long 343 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: to be and keep us on the line as the 344 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: weirdest frenemy in the history of really international relations. On 345 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: his Truth social platform, Trump said the US is considering 346 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: terminating business with China on cooking, oil, and other elements 347 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: of trade because of China's refusal to buy US soybeans 348 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: a decision. Beijing has said his retaliation for Trump's own tariffs, 349 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna deny them. They're cooking oil. What'll they do now? Bake? 350 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 1: It's often funny to me when I read these stories 351 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: and they throw in terms like soybeans or cooking oil 352 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: or whatever, and I, like you and everybody else, you 353 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: have no concept of how big a deal that is, 354 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, none. You just have to assume that it is. 355 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: And this is the way trade wars go. I guess 356 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: one side does something, then the other side does something back, 357 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: and it's just back and forth, tip for tatt till 358 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: you things get crazy. Is that the way it always works? 359 00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: I guess so yeah. Frequently, yeah, and then they get 360 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: together and talk and wind things down a little bit. 361 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: But why it has to go through the initial phase, 362 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,679 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's the showing that we're really, really 363 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: serious phase. I guess yeah. On the other hand, while 364 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: Shiji and Ping doesn't have to worry about the daily 365 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 1: stock market and cable news bad mouthing him or whatever, 366 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: The Wall Street Journal says China's own economy has been 367 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: in a protracted downturn, weighed down by a collapsed property market, 368 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 1: which we've talked about a lot. There are millions and 369 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 1: millions of empty high rises around China. Ever, rising debts 370 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,479 Speaker 1: and weakening consumer confidence. However, she is far less beholding 371 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: the market swoons, as I just said, even though the 372 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: Chinese economy faces pure a precarious outlook. Yeah, but he 373 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: is beholden to other high ranking members of the Communist 374 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: Party that wouldn't mind if he got a bullet in 375 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: his head if the economy went down too much, because 376 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: that's the way dictatorships work, right, right, One more bit 377 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: of information. According to the people close to Beishing's decision making, 378 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: She's hardline strategy is based on the belief Trump will 379 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 1: ultimately fold and off for concessions rather than deployee Washington's 380 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 1: own significant leverage. The confidence was fueled by a US 381 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: China trade truce stuck in May. Trump had imposed tariffs 382 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: of more than one hundred percent on Chinese products, but 383 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 1: relented after Beijing used its leverage. Is the world's most 384 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: important exporter of rare earth magnets. I think you mentioned yesterday, 385 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: did you not that we actually are sitting on lots 386 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 1: and lots of the rare earth materials we've just not 387 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: been willing to mine them because of environmental concerns and 388 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: that sort of thing. This is not something that I know, 389 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: as I'm not an expert in this area, but I 390 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: was looking at a tweet from John Stossel, which I 391 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: will try to find for you right now. China recently 392 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: made it harder to import rare earth minerals, metals needed 393 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 1: to make phones, electric vehicles, all kinds of defense tech, 394 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: fighter planes and stuff like that, a lot of our 395 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 1: AI stuff. This shouldn't be a problem. America is full 396 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,479 Speaker 1: of those minerals. It's only a problem because our government 397 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: makes mining almost impossible in this country. According to John Stotswell, 398 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 1: who's usually right about this sort of thing, right, that 399 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: one surprise me. No, no, not at all. I mean, 400 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: for christ A Loud, we import oil, but we could 401 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 1: easily dig for ourselves. So yeah, that's especially phony because 402 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 1: we're the cleanest, most careful oil extractors on the planet, 403 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: and we go ahead and to have our hands clean 404 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,440 Speaker 1: and our starched white shirts untouched by the dirt that 405 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 1: would result from mining or drilling. We have these awful 406 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: countries that don't give a damn about polluting and human 407 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: rights and the rest of US dig or drill for 408 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: our oil forests. It's it's one of the most ridiculous, hypocritical, 409 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: limousine liberal things we do. But am I I'm economics 410 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: is not my area. I'm not interested enough into it 411 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: or to read a lot about it, and I never 412 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: have in my life. But it just seems to me 413 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: that a one tariff on everything from China landing November first, 414 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: during Christmas shopping season would be a crazy development for 415 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 1: the economy. Yeah, yeah, I would agree. I don't think 416 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 1: we have the will as a people there are I mean, 417 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: the polls are actually kind of encouraging, showing that most 418 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: Americans understand China as a serious, serious rival. But I'm 419 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: not sure we're willing to go full austerity, you know, 420 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: world War two, butter rationing stamps, well, that makes the 421 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: price of everything that comes out of China. We saw 422 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: them the iPhone thing originally when they were talking tariffs 423 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: on how you know it's it's not just a straight 424 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: line you can draw from one on the current price 425 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: to figure out what it is. Sometimes it's multiples more 426 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 1: and on, you know, whether it's iPhone or cheap plastic 427 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: piece of crap toy you're going to buy your kid 428 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 1: or whatever it is, it's going to be two, three, 429 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: five times as expensive. No way we're gonna put up 430 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, you know, I was going to say, 431 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 1: we need a national prog of the toys your kids 432 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,719 Speaker 1: sick of. Let's just have a big swap of thon. 433 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:08,479 Speaker 1: No kidding, God, because thrift stores are Yeah, but somebody 434 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:13,000 Speaker 1: should or eBay. It's like, my son's really into these 435 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: high end whether you called a consignment clothing store or whatever, 436 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: used clothes and they're really hot right now. Like my 437 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: college town has got like three that have started in 438 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: the last year and they do really, really well. And 439 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: it's basically what you're just talking about. It's like I 440 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: bought these really expensive jeans. I'm not going to give 441 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:34,920 Speaker 1: them a good will. I mean they were really expensive. 442 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: I'll sell them for you know, a third what I 443 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: paid for them. I'll easily pay you a third for 444 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: what those expensive jeens. And that has become a market 445 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: we should surely there's got to be a way to 446 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: do that for toys and all kinds of gadgets. Like 447 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: I got this for my kids. This thing costs three 448 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: hundred dollars. They played with it for two weeks. I'd 449 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: like it for my kids. I'll give you one hundred 450 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 1: and fifty. Yeah, it's got it. Just eBay. I think 451 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: for some reason that doesn't work that way. We need 452 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: like a some something's missing there to make that work 453 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 1: the right way. I don't know what it is. Yeah, 454 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's a good idea. It's a well, 455 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 1: you know what the problem is. You're your own consignment shop, 456 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: and you have to deal with the you know, the 457 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 1: logistics and the shipping and and the payment and the 458 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 1: rest of it. Yeah. Yeah, like these does help. Like 459 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: these high end uh consignment clothes or used clothes or 460 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: whatever they are. The people that run them have a 461 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: real sense of what's popular and everything like that. It's 462 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 1: and and and and have that stuff in stock and 463 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: have it laid out in such a way that you 464 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: can find it easily and all that sort of stuff. 465 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: That's what you need with kids, crap, whatever's hot, you 466 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: have a whole bunch of them.

So what 501 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: you're calling for in your really futuristic, not at all 502 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 1: idiotic idea is a thief with a specific shopping list 503 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: exactly well, because the one Mary Kids there was a 504 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: break in, yeah, and the One More Thing podcast we 505 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: were talking about this. Yesterday. I was out at the 506 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 1: farm and still gathering up stuff from getting divorced, that 507 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: stuff in boxes that I've been taking around the country 508 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: for years, and then it's just it's why am I 509 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: hanging onto it? And it should have some value to somebody. 510 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: I don't know what, But if you're the sort of 511 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 1: person that gets rid of crap, old crap that you 512 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: don't use, whether it's clothes or electronics or I don't know, 513 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: just everything that accumulates. Too many bulls, plates and spoons. 514 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 1: Why am I hanging onto these? I don't use these anymore? 515 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: Do I think the current ones are gonna break at 516 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: some point? And I don't even know what I'm doing. Yeah, 517 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: there's just something deep in our caveman brain, and everybody 518 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: has it to varying degrees that if something is still usable, 519 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 1: it's valuable, maybe not very valuable, but has some value, 520 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: it's hard for us to trash it. Yeah, man, oh man, 521 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: do I struggle with that. I got to get better 522 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 1: at it. I know that's the What was that woman 523 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,239 Speaker 1: that came up with that theory? The way you need 524 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: to go through your house and see if things bring 525 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: you joy? Yeah, what's her face? Get rid of all 526 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: the stuff that doesn't bring you joy? Hey? My final 527 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: final note back to the question of China and all, 528 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: and maybe we'll get to this later, but Jamie Diamond, 529 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: head guy at JP Morgan Chase, just announced a ten year, 530 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 1: one and a half trillion dollar effort to facilitate finance 531 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: and invest in industries crucial to national security and what 532 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: he calls economic resilience to make us less dependent on China. 533 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: So that's an interesting development. We'll look at it in 534 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,120 Speaker 1: a little while. Yeah, and then in light of that 535 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: Great Britain story where they're not even allowed to call 536 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 1: China an enemy, which they clearly are. I mean, you 537 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: heard us talking about the sixty minute story yesterday where 538 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: China is hacking into I'm sure they're doing in Great 539 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: Britain the same thing they're doing here, hacking into every 540 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: part of Great Britain's infrastructure. You know who does that? 541 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: An enemy? An enemy to your countries? Who does that? 542 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 1: But they're an enemy that has so much leverage over 543 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,200 Speaker 1: us we won't say the word. And a bunch of 544 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,719 Speaker 1: cheap plastic crap that we want to buy in including 545 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: other stuff to important stuff. We got mail bag on 546 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 1: the way. Lots to talk about today. I hope you 547 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: can stay here. The Department of Justice made the world's 548 00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 1: largest ever crypto seizure. We'll have to read about that later. 549 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: I don't even know how does a seizure of crypto work. 550 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: I guess you just hack into a computer or something. Anyway, 551 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: Trump just threatened to take the world cup away from 552 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: Boston if they don't get their policing under control. I 553 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: have no idea if he's got the power to do 554 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,479 Speaker 1: that or not, But anyway, we'll have that story later too. 555 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: The whole narrative that he's trying to institute some sort 556 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: of dictatorship, martial law, blah blah blas. It's silly, but 557 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,719 Speaker 1: at some point, when you got federal troops or National 558 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: Guard in like ten cities, it's starting to look a 559 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: little weird. Right Yeah. Yeah, Your freedom loving quote of 560 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: today you'll have to wait till tomorrow because my internet 561 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: just died and I had a great quote from Jason 562 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: Riley of the Wall Street Journal ready to go about 563 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: how we need to stop any sort of racial jerrymandering. 564 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: It's not nineteen sixty five anymore, and to rearrange voters 565 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: by race is a racist and be unproductive, and I 566 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: agree completely. He said it more pithily, but we'll let 567 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: have that. That's our freedom loving idea of the day. 568 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: Mailbag drop us a note mail bag at Armstrong and 569 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: Giddy dot com. Yesterday, you might recall that Brian sent 570 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 1: along a story that he said it would be cheerful 571 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: and help get us away from being the most depressing 572 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: radio show on Earth, and I found a depressing angle 573 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: to it and put him in his place. Today Brian plucky. 574 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: Brian has come back with a Dare to be Joyous 575 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: Part two story awesome, no downside to this one. It's 576 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: great and we'll get to it next hour. Go really encouraging. 577 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: Well done, Brian, Right moving along, Come on here. Two 578 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: emails in a row with precisely the same title, Change 579 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: the Law. Ran in Houston writes, Dear Big Freedom, the 580 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: cold Warrior and old simple Jack. So Marjorie Taylor Green 581 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 1: doesn't like what Ice is doing. Has to suck that 582 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 1: you can't do anything about it? If only they're there 583 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: was a branch of the government to make and pass laws, 584 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: some sort of legislative branch to be coequal to our 585 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: God Emperor. Has any country tried that? Ah boy, very good, 586 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: pithy and delightful. And then second change the Law email. 587 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 1: This is from Evan and beautiful Raleigh, California, right down 588 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: the road from my brother. Been a loyal listener since 589 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: I was a freshman in high school. Now thirty seven 590 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 1: with my second son on the way. Sorry for making 591 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: us all feel old. I wanted to follow up on 592 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: your discussion about illegal immigration. Sound like you were saying 593 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: it might technically be the law that someone here illegally 594 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 1: should be deported, but that it's not necessarily right. Yeah. Yeah, 595 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: that was more or less my argument. I mean, there 596 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 1: are nuances to it, but he says I get that, 597 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:43,719 Speaker 1: and I think most people understand why many come here 598 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 1: for opportunity and are not heartless toward those who built 599 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: lives here. But as Jack often says, if we don't 600 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: like it, change the law. Someone who drove drunk ten 601 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 1: years ago but was never caught still broke the law. 602 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: Same logic applies here. Compassion matters. But as you've said, 603 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 1: order without compassion is authority arianism, I usually say brutality 604 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: and compassion without order is chaos. Change the law. I 605 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: still stand by that. I guess anytime anybody comments on anything, 606 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 1: I should comment, I should say, am I talking politics 607 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: or am I talking the law? I think politically, Marjorie 608 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 1: Taylor Green might have a ton of people on her side, 609 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: including people of mega people. Yep, yeah, I think the 610 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: context for us, we were talking about how much support 611 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: there would be for you know what's going on. But 612 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 1: he does make one more interesting point. MTG isn't a 613 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 1: true believer. She's protecting her political interests in the cheap 614 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: labor status quo, which is equally despicable. Talks about our district. 615 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 1: They they've been here in work hard argument just keeps 616 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: that cycle going, the roiling of the political parties and 617 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 1: what they are, you know, the working class moving to 618 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: the Republican Party under Trump. And now you've got this 619 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 1: Marjorie Taylor green Crow. How big that is? I don't know. 620 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,719 Speaker 1: That says, you know, there's a whole bunch of illegals 621 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 1: here working in my district and they probably ought to stay. 622 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 1: And she's saying, my kids are on the Obamacare and 623 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 1: their healthcare is gonna double. So what are we doing here? 624 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: She wants to extend the Obamacare subsidies. So is she 625 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: carving out like a different thing or is that gonna 626 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 1: work itself out between the two parties. I don't know. 627 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: MSNBC offered her a show. Maybe I don't know, and 628 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,399 Speaker 1: then Evan signs off. Thanks for decades of entertainment, level 629 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: headed commentary. You've been calling balls and strikes long before 630 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,439 Speaker 1: it was popular to do so. Evan, it's much more 631 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: popular to chuck bombs and conspiracy theories and that sort 632 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 1: of thing. We're stupid for doing what we do, but 633 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: thank you for listening. Oh, we're stupid. What see Oh? 634 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,839 Speaker 1: And then JT and livermore with a note about Barry Weiss, 635 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: who I want to talk about a little bit more, 636 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 1: saying that if Barry just changes the political news formula 637 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 1: from Republicans pounced to something more even handed, it will 638 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: have a huge impact on how news is perceived. That 639 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: and the daily more balanced approach to news stories could 640 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 1: have a monumental impact on the nation's politics. That's a 641 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 1: good point. You see when the Duck bought chapstick and said, 642 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: just put it on my bill, it's his lips are 643 00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: too complicated. And I don't know if it's that complicated. 644 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 1: I think you understand ducks don't have lips. The Supreme 645 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,360 Speaker 1: Court and whether or not they're going to take up 646 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: that Colorado trans case is an interesting one, among things 647 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,560 Speaker 1: other things. An Hour two Armstrong and Getty
