Again the 4 00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show begins. No, hey, everybody, welcome to the 5 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. Coming to you from Washington, d C. 6 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 1: Got a busy show today, folks. The Hunt for a 7 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 1: non September, which is what I'm calling that editorial writer, 8 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: the anonymous editorial writer in the White House, the deep 9 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 1: State Manifesto, another thing that I've come up with for it. 10 00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: Trump is expected to declassify some reporting on that, declassifying 11 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: the FISA memo that was used, well, the FISA memos 12 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: in general that we're used for surveillance of Carter Page. Also, 13 00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: Joseph miff sued the professor that Papadompolis interactively. He may 14 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: be dead. Obama is back. Jim Carrey says, we have 15 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: to say yes to socialism, and Serena Williams freaks out, 16 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 1: and then the social justice left comes to her aid, 17 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: let's get right to it with the the latest on 18 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 1: the the Hunt for Anonymous September, the Hunt for a 19 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: non September. I have to say I was originally of 20 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: the mindset that they would find out who this was 21 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: it was. It was originally in my thought process I 22 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: figured that this was a situation where they would definitely 23 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: out the person and just a question of when. Now 24 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, actually, maybe not, because the power of this 25 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: editorialist comes from the anonymity in a sense, right, the 26 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: media likes this because it creates this gray area, this 27 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 1: gray space for all of the anti Trumper's out there 28 00:01:58,240 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: to come up with a different reason for Hey, you 29 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: know what, maybe this is John Kelly. Hey, maybe it's 30 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: some other really important person in the White House. If 31 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: we were to find out that this wasn't a particularly 32 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: important person, then we would all be in a position 33 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: where we've got to take a long, hard look at 34 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: the editorial guidelines of the New York Times, which is 35 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 1: just a resistance rag. I mean, I don't think we 36 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: really have to be all that cautious about saying that 37 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: right in the New York Times is very honestly place 38 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: that is opposed to the President of the United States, 39 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: um And then honestly, from my perspective, right, they're not 40 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: honest about it. That's the problem. On the problem is 41 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: they still lie, but you know, you had over the 42 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: weekend Kelly and Conway and others going on the Sunday shows, 43 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: and they were taking the perspective on this, you know, 44 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: the various administration surrogates taking the perspective, well, of course 45 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: the person is cowardly and that this is so terrible 46 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: and the media shouldn't be focused on this at all. 47 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 1: What I would add to all of this is that 48 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 1: it doesn't It doesn't change anything. The only thing you 49 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: have here is somebody running around the White House who 50 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 1: has delusions of grandeur. It doesn't change the perceptions from 51 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 1: the Trump side or the anti Trump side of what's 52 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: really going on in the White House. Doesn't tell us 53 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: anything particularly new. What it does do is open up 54 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: endless rounds of speculation from the media about just exactly 55 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 1: what has happened here, and uh, you know, how powerful 56 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: this person, maybe how close his or her relationship with Trump? 57 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 1: Maybe so. I but I think that the media doesn't 58 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: really want to find out. And that's the big shift 59 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: in my thinking on this. That's why I'm saying it's 60 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: the hunt for a non September I don't think that 61 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: they really are going to it's gonna scratch it this 62 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: at all. I think they're just gonna let it be. 63 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: We know that the New York Times obviously knows a 64 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: number of people there no now they would say they 65 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 1: would protect this person interestingly enough as a source, I guess, 66 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: but they're not really. It's not really a source. It's 67 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: an editorial writer. It's a little different. It feels a 68 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: little different at least. And remember, all of these rules, folks, 69 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: are guidelines. They are not hard and fast truths. So 70 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: you have you have that happening right now. I don't 71 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: think that they're going to find the person, and I 72 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: think the media is complicit and continuing to to hide 73 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: the football on that one. And then you have another 74 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: series of stories that all tying together all around the 75 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: Russia collusion fantasy you have. For one, Trump is expected soon, 76 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: according to Axios here and other places, Trump may declassify. 77 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: Trump may decide to declassify the entirety of the Russia 78 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 1: probe FISA documents. Now, we've seen some of the FISA 79 00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 1: documents with extensive redactions. What we've seen so far proves that, yes, 80 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: the dossier was, in fact a very important part of 81 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: all this, and that the members of the Congress and 82 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: the media who were claiming that the dossier was essentially 83 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: just thrown in there. I was like, you know, why 84 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: not that they're lying that that was not true? Now 85 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 1: they're only saving groce. Up to this point. The only 86 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: thing that prevents it from being completely irrefutable that the 87 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: document was a opposition hit piece essentially being passed around 88 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: the FBI is that they must have additional sourcing, real good, 89 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: deep level sourcing on this one. And I just don't 90 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: see that being possible, or I shouldn't say possible, and 91 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: I see that being very unlikely. I don't think that's 92 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: going to be the case at all. And they are 93 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: gonna try and do everything in their power to hide 94 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: this under national under the guise of national security, They're 95 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: gonna say, well, we can't for national security reasons, we 96 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: cannot allow this information to get out there. Meanwhile, what 97 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: about the balancing of the presidency with the national security 98 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: concerns here? What about the fact that in this instance, 99 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: you're talking about a FISER request that has been used 100 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: as the basis for an investigation essentially, or FISER not 101 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: just requests, but fights a program finds a surveillance jim 102 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: box in a presidential administration really to try and continue 103 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: a silent coup, which is what I think we should 104 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 1: all recognize. This whole ridiculous collusion investigation is turned into 105 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: an effort at a silent coup. That that's what they 106 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: see is that's why the people who have been pushing 107 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 1: it all along. You'll notice that they get frustrated that 108 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: it's not more successful, but they're not worried even if 109 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: they find out at the end of the day, at 110 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: the end of the investigation, that everything they've been saying 111 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: is wrong. It served much of the original purpose would 112 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: was to hurt Trump. That's why they were doing this, 113 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 1: That's why they pushed so hard for it in the 114 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,679 Speaker 1: early days. If you really look at the whole Russia 115 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,119 Speaker 1: collusion investigation, you see that it was completely unnecessary. Based 116 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 1: on d J guidelines, the Department of Justice could have 117 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: done all the Russia interference aspects of the investigation. The 118 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: only way you had a conflict of interest that necessitated 119 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: some kind of special counsel. Uh situation comes specifically from 120 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: the notion that the Trump administration was a part of 121 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: the problem, or that the Trump campaign was a part 122 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: of the problem. That's the only reason you have a 123 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:43,239 Speaker 1: special counsel. And then when you add into it the uh, 124 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: the Komby firing, which she realize is that this has 125 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: just been all a manufactured narrative from the left from 126 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: the very beginning. That's what's that's what's been going on here, 127 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: and and that's in the at the end of the day, 128 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna see happened. That's why I agree 129 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: with many other voices out there right now who are saying, 130 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: you got to release all the information, just declassify it. 131 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: Enough is enough, and that way we can finally make 132 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: then we can finally come to the conclusions about what 133 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: really happened here. I would just note that one of 134 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: the problems that you're gonna come up with is that 135 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: even if as crazy as this sounds, even if they 136 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 1: declassify more of this and you're able to see it, 137 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: even if Trump releases those fines the docs, they're gonna say, oh, well, okay, 138 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: the dossier might maybe was a bigger part of this 139 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: process than we initially thought. But the dossier I still 140 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: could be true. We're all we're gonna be swept up 141 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: in a could be, would be, could be true situation 142 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: very quickly we're gonna move away from the realm of 143 00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: facts and logic and reason and into the depths of 144 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: Trump's arrangement syndrome. That's what's going to happen here. Uh, 145 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 1: speaking of Trump's arrangement syndrome, you know, you think that 146 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 1: in an era when what they call uh slut shaming, 147 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: for example, which is a term used by feminists on 148 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: the left to talk about any time a woman is 149 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: being demeaned for being too overt in her sexuality or 150 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 1: for her sex life, you think that federal prosecutors would 151 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit more circumspect about such things, right, 152 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: given the possible public outcry. But Maria Boutina, who is 153 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: being held without bail, I would like to know. So 154 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: she's being held as though she were a Yes, I 155 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: know it's because she's a flight risk, but they're they're 156 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: holding or because they say that you know, she could 157 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: leave the country. Meanwhile, usually when you can't have bailiffs 158 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: because you either violated the terms of your bail or 159 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: your a risk to the public or a really serious 160 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: flight risk for a really serious crime. In this case, 161 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: her crimes are not registering as a foreign agent. Not 162 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: particularly serious stuff. Folks, generally you pay a fine for 163 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: that one. It's already been handed off. So it's not 164 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: the Mueller probe that's handling Maria Boutina. But prosecutors, you 165 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: may recall, put out the story. They put out the 166 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: story that Russian national Maria Boutina was exchanging sex, or 167 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: at least offered to exchange sex for access as part 168 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: of her political machinations. Right as part of her Russian 169 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 1: agent operations. She was a honeypot. Essentially, she she was 170 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: offering up sex to people who she thought could get 171 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: her access to important Republican American decision makers. And you'd 172 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: think that they would only go out with that kind 173 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: of character destroying information if it really really true. Turns out, 174 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: the prosecutors, now, folks, I'm not making this up. Terms 175 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: of the prosecutors have said, whoop see, looks like we 176 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:02,319 Speaker 1: were wrong about that one. We misinterpreted a text message 177 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: chain and she really wasn't offering up sex to anybody. 178 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:11,720 Speaker 1: She she really wasn't doing that. Oh okay, well, I'm 179 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: i gotta say so, so we've established that. Now, Uh, 180 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: that's not a little whoopsie. You'd think that this is 181 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:23,599 Speaker 1: something prosecutors will be a little little slower in the 182 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: Russia judgment about at least to publicize it. It's one 183 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 1: thing to have it and hold it and release it 184 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: during trial. They made that part of the storyline when 185 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: she got arrested, and I think it's really interesting that 186 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: there's no outcry from the left about this at all, 187 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: that attacking this woman. Look, it's one thing to say 188 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: that she was doing Russian agent of influence operations in 189 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: the US. That's bad and we don't want that, although 190 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: how bad really depends on what she was doing. But 191 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: it's an entirely another thing. It's a very different kind 192 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 1: of crime to say that she was sleeping with people 193 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: as part of that process, and at prosecutors essentially slandered 194 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: her in this way and have admitted it. Just goes 195 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: to show you that there are no rules, folks, And 196 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: this is important for you to recognize. There are no 197 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: rules when it comes to dealing with anybody associated with 198 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: Trump or Russia collusion with Trump. As long as you 199 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: are hitting them and hitting them hard, as long as 200 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: you're hurting them with whatever you do, then it's all fine. 201 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 1: There will be no apology, I think, and the media 202 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: will not focus on this they will not turn Maria 203 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: Boutin into some kind of heroine. Um, but we should 204 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: at least take a moment to see the prosecutors are 205 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: over zealous and they are unfair when it comes to 206 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: prosecuting people around Trump that have anything to do with Russia. 207 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: Joseph Myth Sued, the professor who is tied to George 208 00:12:53,679 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: Papadopoulos is feared dead. Uh, this is this is bizarre, folks. 209 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: I mean this comes out here, this is from Fox News. 210 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: Joseph Mifsued, the mysterious Maltese professor believed to have played 211 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: a key role in igniting the Russia probe, vanished from 212 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: public eye after his name began surfacing in news stories. Now, 213 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 1: lawyers the Democratic National Committee say it is possible mif 214 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 1: Sued is dead. In filing the Southern District of New York, 215 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 1: the d n C said mith Sued is missing and 216 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: maybe deceased. The lawyers said that they will monitor new 217 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,679 Speaker 1: sources for any indications of mess suits whereabouts and will 218 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: attempt service on myth suit if and when he has 219 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: found alive. Filing came as the DNC is suing Myth 220 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: Sued and others as part of its lawsuit accusing Trump 221 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: of conspiring with Russia in the election. I mean, what 222 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: you want to talk about a frivolous lawsuit? This is 223 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: this lawsuit is garbage, absolute garbage. Um. But now as 224 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,959 Speaker 1: we as we look at this and try to get 225 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: a sense of what exactly the law, what exactly comes 226 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,199 Speaker 1: into play here other than the fact of the d 227 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: n C is being litigious. You know, I am, I am. 228 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: I supposed to think that it's totally normal that this 229 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: guy who is at the very center of all this. 230 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: Remember if suit is the one who talked to Papadopolis 231 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,960 Speaker 1: in London. He's the one who, uh it is believed 232 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: was perhaps run by a US either law enforcement or 233 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: intelligence service to get information from Papadopoulos. If he just 234 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: turns up randomly dead or rather in this case, just disappears, 235 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: are we supposed to think that that's entirely coincidence. We're 236 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: supposed to believe that this is just a thing that happened, 237 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 1: and that there's nothing that we need to see, there's 238 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: nothing that we should be concerned about. You know, it's 239 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 1: a coincidence. It's one giant, incredible coincidence. I have to say, 240 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: I find that very hard to believe. I find it 241 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: very hard to believe that this just happened, and there's 242 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 1: and and there's there's no reason to think of anything else, 243 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: just like I found it difficult to believe that the 244 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: op ed that came out, the anonymous op ed and 245 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: it's timing with the Bob Woodword book, was not the 246 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: result of what's obviously media collusion, and the media is 247 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: colluding together against Trump. I don't think there's really any 248 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: serious debate about that. I think that that's been on 249 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: display for a long time. But but the timing of 250 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: these things happens, and we're supposed to believe, Yeah, you know, 251 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: it's it's not a big deal. You know, this this 252 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: stuff just sort of happens. We need to just deal 253 00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 1: with the reality of unforeseen events that that that occur 254 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: at these incredibly inopportune times for Trump. But if you 255 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: if you despise Trump, all of a sudden, the timing 256 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: is amazing and you seem quite it seems quite lucky. 257 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: You know, Woodword is out there saying that people better 258 00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: wake up to what's going on. I've got to say, 259 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: I I don't know what Woodward thinks is really all 260 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: that different in his book. We we've read so much 261 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: of this already. We we've heard this, we've seen this, 262 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: we are very much aware. Uh. And yet Woodward is 263 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: holding himself up yet again as the hero in this 264 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: narrative and literally his narrative of course, right or by 265 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: constructing this narrative of telling us that Trump is incredibly 266 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: um incompetent. And you know, we we've heard all this 267 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: before though there's nothing really all that new in this information. 268 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: I asked Alma Rosa last week. She said Trump is crazy. 269 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: I said, tell me, how, tell me why? She Well, 270 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: I can't give you any specifics on anything. I can't 271 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: actually bring you up to speed on why Trump is 272 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: crazy other than to make the allegation the accusation. I'm 273 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: starting to feel like, folks, if a crazy president can 274 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: be this successful, maybe we need a crazy president. You know, 275 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: maybe we're in a different kind of world than we 276 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 1: think we were, where not everyone has to pretend to 277 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: be a character in the West Wing with pithy comebacks 278 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: and always talking about you know, freedom and democracy and 279 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: and and America and values and all that stuff. I mean, 280 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 1: you want somebody who believes in that, but you want 281 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: them to protect those things to propagate those things. You 282 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: don't want them to just sit around and make a 283 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: show of it. That's why I just don't think the 284 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: Woodword Book has the punch that he obviously wants it to. 285 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: When you look at it more closely, it's now keep 286 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: in mind, I've only seen excerpts of it. I know 287 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: he like, what do even when you look at it, 288 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: I have not. I have not been damed. So important 289 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: and uh and so fantastic has to be given a 290 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: copy of the Woodward Book up front. But I have 291 00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: to say, when you look at this thing, you find 292 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 1: that or the whole narrative around it too. It's clear 293 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: to me that this is just a repetition of what's 294 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: already been out there, consolidated under one by line Woodward 295 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 1: and right after the hunt for a non September had 296 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: to start. These things all coincide, folks, They all come together. 297 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: And when you add into that miff suit is now 298 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: dropping off the radar, perhaps forever. Right when this probe 299 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: should end, I've got questions, big ones. Let's turn to 300 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: the world of sports for a minute. Chilley, social justice 301 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 1: once again the order of the day. Apparently we'll get 302 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,680 Speaker 1: into that. Here's how it all started. This is Serena 303 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: Williams right after losing in the US Open Women's tennis final. 304 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: We can never really go back to Serena, but if 305 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: you could change one complin about what occurred, what would 306 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: that be? Um, I don't know. I don't You definitely 307 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: can't go back in time. But I can't sit here 308 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: and say I wouldn't say he's a thief because he 309 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: I thought he took a game from me. But I've 310 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 1: seen other men call other umpires several things. And I'm 311 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 1: here fighting for women's rights and for women's equality and 312 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: for all kinds of stuff. And for me to say 313 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: thief and for him to take a game, it made 314 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: me feel like it was a sexist remark. I mean, 315 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: like how he's never took a game from a man 316 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: because they said fief. For me, it blows my mind. 317 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: But I'm going to continue to to fight for women 318 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,399 Speaker 1: and to fight for us to have equal like coordination, 319 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 1: should be able to take our shirt off without getting 320 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: a fine Like this is outrageous, you know, And I 321 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: just feel like the fact that I have to go 322 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: through this is just an example for the next person 323 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,920 Speaker 1: that has emotions and that want to express themselves and 324 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: they want to be a strong woman, and they're gonna 325 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 1: be allowed to do that because of today. Maybe it 326 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: didn't work out for me, but it's gonna work out 327 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: for the next person. Everyone. Wow, Serena Williams, women's rights hero. Apparently, 328 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: let me just take a step back for a woman, folks, 329 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: and we can describe exactly what happened here, and then 330 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: you can come to your own conclusions about whether or 331 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: not you think this was, as advertised, a case of 332 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: standing up for women's rights and and paving the pathway 333 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: for the next young woman who comes along so that 334 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: she doesn't have to deal with this degree of of sexism. Uh. 335 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: Serena Wims in the US Open final against a woman 336 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: by the last name of Osaka. I'm actually blanking temporarily 337 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: on her first name. I'm looking it up right this second. 338 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 1: Pardon me, that happened sometimes when you're on air, Um, Naiomi, 339 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Natalie Naomi Osaka. So look, I 340 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: like tennis a lot. For those of you who don't 341 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: know that, I'm some some lot of a tennis fan. Um, 342 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,439 Speaker 1: but I don't like that all sports now have been 343 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: polluted by social justice. It's not just the NFL, and 344 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: I would note by the way that this past weekend 345 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: with the NFL kneeling that occurred, it's essentially no longer 346 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: a problem, folks. I think you had two out of 347 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: almost a thousand players take a knee of to Miami 348 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: Dolphins players, So this is now irrelevant. This is not 349 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: a big problem in the NFL. People are not doing it, 350 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: and I don't even think the President should focus on 351 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: it anymore because he's giving too much attention to one 352 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: or two guys. Nobody really cares about what they're doing. 353 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 1: But social justice ideology has penetrated far beyond any one 354 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: particular sport, and in this case in tennis, you have 355 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: Serena Williams, who is obviously African American female, who is 356 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: in terms of wins and just in terms of raw ability, 357 00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: the greatest female tennis player of all time. Some people 358 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 1: would put one or two other names in there. She's 359 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,239 Speaker 1: certainly in the top three of all time, if not 360 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: number one, far and away. So she's had a tremendous 361 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: amount of success. She's worth probably well north of a 362 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars. I don't know what her net worth Is, 363 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: but she's she's fabulously wealthy, she has a clothing line, 364 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:01,600 Speaker 1: she's an international superstar. But she also has had a 365 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:05,400 Speaker 1: few instances in the past where she has lost her cool. 366 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 1: She's lost her temper very obviously and markedly in the past. 367 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: And this instance here, this time, we're talking about the 368 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: Over the weekend the u S Open, she decided that well, 369 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 1: she was getting coached, which is a violation. Her coach 370 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: gave some hand signals, and I would note that while 371 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: Serena said, oh I wasn't getting coached, it doesn't matter 372 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: whether she saw him or not. The coach was trying 373 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: to give her coaching signals with his hands. Whether you 374 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 1: should be allowed to do that or not is another discussion, 375 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: but you're not allowed to do it. In tennis, she 376 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: got a warning for that. She then after losing a point, 377 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 1: and she was already losing to Naomi Osaka pretty badly. 378 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: And it's not reported enough that Osaka already beat her 379 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: earlier this year. So it's not like Osaka can't go 380 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: pound for pound, you know, stroke for stroke against william 381 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: She she has and she has won in the past, 382 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: but Williams just took her racket and annihilated it. I 383 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: mean just shattered it on on the court, which people 384 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: will say, one, it is poor sportsmanship, but also that 385 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: little plastic can fly up and and actually, you know, 386 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: strike somebody in the front row. I mean, you really 387 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: don't want to set a precedent where you can just 388 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: start breaking things on the court. So she got a 389 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: point penalty, but Serena didn't stop there. Then she decided 390 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: that she was going to make this an issue of 391 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,960 Speaker 1: of her honor, and she started arguing vociferously with the 392 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: chair umpire of this match. Understand why you may have 393 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: thought out that was coaching, and I'm telling you it's not. 394 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 1: I don't cheat to win a brother, Lucas. I'm just 395 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: letting you know he's a coaching violation, and I guess 396 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: he's a thumbs up in Serena setting you straight that 397 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: that is not coaching. I don't cheat, Salna. I'd rather lose, 398 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: she says. Now, I think it's funny that that announcer 399 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: says sets sets the umpire straight. She was wrong. The 400 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: coach later admitted that he was coaching, which is again 401 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: not a huge deal. It happens coaches get a little 402 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: animated there in the stands, and they really want their 403 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: player to win. But she was wrong. He was trying 404 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: to coach her and she acted like he wasn't and 405 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,719 Speaker 1: that she didn't or maybe was only slightly able to 406 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: see what he was doing, does not change the violation. 407 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: This is straightforward stuff, folks. She broke the rules. She 408 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: broke the rules, and then she couldn't accept that she 409 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: broke the rules, and then she got really nasty with 410 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 1: the umpire. Yeah, that's the morning. I didn't get coaching. 411 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 1: I didn't get coaching. I didn't get coaching. You need 412 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 1: to take you need to make an announcement that I 413 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: didn't get coaching. I don't cheat, I didn't get coaching. 414 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: I didn't say that. No need you need. You don't 415 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,880 Speaker 1: get a policy. You owe me a politic. I haven't 416 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: averaging it in my life. I have a daughter, and 417 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: I stand. Was my hard i've ever seen. He was up. Yeah, 418 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: Serena was watching her coach give her handsome. I don't 419 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: know if you caught that part at the very end, 420 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: but she called the umpire a thief, which, as you 421 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: can imagine, the umpire did not particularly like. That annoyed 422 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: the umpire and so the umpire because it's a third 423 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,080 Speaker 1: and there was sort of a back and forth. You 424 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: can't really hear the umpire uh speaking there, but she 425 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't stop, and she's really being belligerent with the chair 426 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: umpire not allowed to do this. Tennis, like golf, is 427 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: a game that still takes its decorum pretty seriously. So 428 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 1: she got a game penalty and then later she lost, 429 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: and the whole thing is just so. And by the way, folks, 430 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 1: I know, if you don't care about tennis, this isn't 431 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: about tennis, okay, it's about the narrative around it, which 432 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to in just a second, but you 433 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: need to know the full facts. Then Osaka goes up 434 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: on stage and she just should be the greatest moment 435 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: of her career. She's one of her three million dollars. Okay, 436 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: so look, it is a good day no matter what. 437 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: But she one of her three million dollars. She beat 438 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: her idol, Serena Williams. She even said that on the 439 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 1: number one stage really for at least American players in 440 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: the world. For a lot of people say it's number 441 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 1: one of the Wimbledon's up there too, And it was 442 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: a disgusting scene. A lot of people were booing. Now 443 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: I know they're booing the U. S t A. Or 444 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 1: they're booing the officials, really, but to Osaka, she's up 445 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: there and she's hearing booing from the crowd. It was 446 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: just horrible. But what was amazing, folks, was how quickly 447 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: all of these different sports announcers and the United States 448 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: Tennis Association rallied around Serena all of a sudden, Serena 449 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: is a women's rights hero. How is she women's rights hero? 450 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: I'm seeing people sharing stuff from thirty years ago, John 451 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 1: McEnroe acting like an idiot, which he used to do, 452 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,400 Speaker 1: and he used to get penalized too for that. By 453 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: the way, perhaps not enough. You should have been ejected 454 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: from games. But she broke the rules, and yet here 455 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: we are watching as she breaks the rules and then 456 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: is applauded for being some kind of hero for women's 457 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: rights and equality. I mean the stuff that she was 458 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,520 Speaker 1: saying in there, that it was a sexist remark, she 459 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: called the umpire a thief. She's being disrespectful. You're not 460 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: allowed to do that. Now, why do you have otherwise 461 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: savvy's sports watchers and announcers and commentators at least savvy 462 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: about their sport. Why do they all rush to Serena side? Well, folks, 463 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: for a long time, there has been this narrative that 464 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 1: because Serena is black, there are double standards that are 465 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: applied to her, as well as the fact that she 466 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: is a female, which is the case here. For a 467 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: long time, though, there have been people that talked about 468 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: racism and the inherent racism of either a you know, 469 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: a bad refing situation, or just how tennis was an 470 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: elitist sport, although you know, tennis now is a truly 471 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: global sport. But you can just see that all these 472 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 1: people see Serena Williams and they see her situation, they 473 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: think to themselves, female black sports icon, not what really 474 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 1: happened here? And what's the circumstance, because there's not There's 475 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 1: not two ways about this. But to announcers, they want 476 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: to be politically correct, they want to be on the 477 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: right side of this, and the social justice left they 478 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: see this as an opportunity, as a as a kind 479 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 1: of Kaepernick like moment, a rallying cry for women's equality. 480 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: I I don't know, it's such a stretch, it's really laughable. 481 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: Her thing about women are a woman who took off 482 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 1: her shirt. By the way, yes, there's a different set 483 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: of rules for women than men. Women also have boobs 484 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 1: and men don't. And I know that we're supposed to 485 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: move past gender roles entirely in society, but we still 486 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: think of boobs as things that and maybe we shouldn't, folks, 487 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: maybe we should get past it. You know, I'm fine 488 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,240 Speaker 1: with boobs, but we think of them as something that 489 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 1: you shouldn't see in the open. Although New York you 490 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: can actually walk around topless. It's the law. You can 491 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: walk around ooplace in downtown Manhattan. You won't get arrested, 492 00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: but it is the rule. And it's because you think 493 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: of men and women differently because they are different. So 494 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: a woman taking off her shirt, if she has a 495 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: sports brawl underneath, I'm fine with it. But the rules 496 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: aren't there to penalize women Unkindly. It's just because women 497 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: have you know, what are considered sex organs up top 498 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: and men don't. Uh, And maybe maybe society is wrong 499 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: with that, but it's not like Tennis is some terrible 500 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: anti women, misogynist organization that's trying to penalize ladies for 501 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: for having boobs um and then just her whole thing 502 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: about how she would you know, it's about her daughter 503 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: and she would never cheat. Let me tell you some 504 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: about Serena Williams in two thousand and nine against another 505 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: player called Kim Clyst named Clim Cloisters. I believe Belgian 506 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: um she or was it Kim Cloisters, Yes, it was 507 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: it was Kim Clysters. Uh. She didn't like a foot 508 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: fall call that she got, and she walked over and 509 00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: this was on camera and everybody heard and saw this, 510 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: and she threatened a small, uh female Asian American line judge. 511 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: She said she would take an effing ball and slam 512 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: it down her effing throat. And now this is the 513 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: the most iconic female tennis player in the world threatening 514 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: a line judge because she didn't like a call. All right, 515 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: I can't tell you any other prominent female tennis player, 516 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: or honestly, any other prominent prominent female athlete who has 517 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: done something quite as aggressive and egregious as that. But 518 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: Serena has a victim complex, folks. She thinks of herself 519 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: even though she's a just like Kaepernick, even though she's 520 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 1: a globally recognizable brand, and even though she's worth millions, 521 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: she's a lot more famous, a lot more successful as 522 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 1: an athlete than Kaepernick ever was. But she's worth millions 523 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: and millions of dollars. She thinks that she's treated unfairly 524 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 1: and that her race and her gender hold her back, 525 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: and therefore justifies, you know, she says there's a different standard, 526 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: and therefore wants there to be a different standard under 527 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: which we would judge her in actions and situations like this. 528 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 1: That's what you see really happening, and and the political 529 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: correctness around it all is why you had all these 530 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: announcers acting like idiots and coming to the defense of 531 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: an athlete who's who is a bully. Sometimes she's a bully. 532 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: That's what happens. And she ruined Naomi Osaka's big moment 533 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: because she's not a big enough person to see pass that. 534 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: She was already getting her butt kicked in the game 535 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: by the way she was. She was losing the match, 536 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: no question about it. But now she wanted an asterisk 537 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: next to it. She wanted there to be uh, you know, well, 538 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: maybe I didn't really lose and show she threw a tantrum, 539 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: and that's what it was. A tantrum. I don't care 540 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: what gender you are. I don't care what color you are. 541 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: When you throw a tantrum in a situation like that 542 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: and you break the rules, you should be held accountable 543 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: because you see, I respect men and women equally, and 544 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: I respect all races equally. So therefore I apply the 545 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: same logic and standards and code of conduct to every buddy. 546 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: I don't change it based upon the allegations that in 547 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: other situations it has been changed against that person. That's 548 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna try to rebalance the past based upon 549 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 1: somebody's claims. So anyway, that's what I just social justice 550 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: now affects everything, and it affects even the way we 551 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: talk about a tennis incident like this. Speaking of social justice, 552 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: Jim Carrey is out there talking about how he wants socialism, 553 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: but not when it comes to his money. I'm sure 554 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: when it comes to yours, we'll get there. Stay with me, boys, 555 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: I've always said that the United States has been a 556 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: quasi socialist government for a hundred years. For crying out loud, 557 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: it's not. I'm plenty of subsidies for oil company, also 558 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 1: medicare and socialticularity, and yes, of course, there's nothing more 559 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: socialistic than some of the Pentagon programs that are just 560 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: jobs programs. The Pentagon says we don't want these tanks, 561 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: and they've build them. Anyway. If that's not socialism, I 562 00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: don't know what it is. But but that word, the 563 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 1: Democrats seem to get a plan to fight this, this 564 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 1: slander of socialism. You're gonna be living in Venezuela. I 565 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: don't we have to say socialism to the word and everything. 566 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 1: We have to stop a pot I am, that's right. 567 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: We have to say yes to socialism. Say if the 568 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: hundred million dollar man, Jim Carey, we have to say 569 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 1: yes to the massive redistribution of wealth. But I don't 570 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: know if that means that Jim Carey has to give 571 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: up his Malibu mansion. You know, you have to wonder, folks. 572 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: They're now saying this is the bill Marline. Oh well, 573 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: we're basically already a socialist country. Okay, Well, in that case, 574 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 1: what are these major changes that they say need to 575 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: happen under this banner of socialism that's being trotted out 576 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: by prominent Democrats on a regular basis. When they say, oh, well, 577 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,520 Speaker 1: we don't we're not gonna end up like Venezuela, or 578 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 1: it's not fair to say we'll end up like Venezuela. Okay, Well, 579 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: for us to end up like Sweden, which is the 580 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 1: other thing that they talk about, we are going to 581 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 1: have to have tax rates in the area of say 582 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: fifty for the middle class, for you, for me, for 583 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: people listening to this right now, you're gonna be given 584 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:15,919 Speaker 1: fifty percent of your income to the federal government. That 585 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: that sounds like a lot to me. That sounds like 586 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,720 Speaker 1: more than the Democrats would be able to convince folks 587 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: if they had to tell them what the numbers actually were. 588 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: But I think we're all just getting sick of being 589 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: lectured by incredibly wealthy people about how we all need 590 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: to give more of our money away. You know, if 591 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: Jim Carey wants to give me a check for ten 592 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,720 Speaker 1: million dollars, then maybe I'll want to hear more about 593 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 1: socialism from him. You know, if I get to sit 594 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: in a position where I am economically immune from the 595 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,000 Speaker 1: bad decision making of those who are pushing socialism, if 596 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 1: I get to make that decision, that's that's you know, 597 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 1: it's fine as long as I could live in my 598 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: Malibu mansion. But I don't have a Malibum mansion. I 599 00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: gotta live in the real world. And Jim Carey and 600 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 1: Bill More and the rest of them, they should have 601 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: to live in the real world too. And that means 602 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: if you want to say yes to socialism, it means 603 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 1: saying yes to massively higher taxes and horrifically slow, if 604 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:16,720 Speaker 1: not negative, economic growth and all kinds of bad stuff. 605 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: So you know, you should at least be honest about 606 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: what you want. Folks. If they want socialism, well then 607 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 1: they should get it long and hard. That's my that's 608 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,479 Speaker 1: my opinion on the matter. At least when you're here, 609 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: how great the economy is doing right now. Let's just 610 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: remember when this recovery started. Suddenly Republicans are saying it's America. 611 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 1: I had to kind of remind them, actually, those job 612 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: numbers are the same as they were in two thousand 613 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 1: in two thousand six, and anyway, this is the best 614 00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: they can manage, folks. Democrats Obama coming out there and saying, oh, well, 615 00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 1: the economy is great right now, but it's because of Obama. 616 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 1: This is tough to take seriously. I don't take it seriously, 617 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,880 Speaker 1: especially because just do this thought experiment. Imagine for a 618 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 1: moment that unemployment was six seven eight percent. Imagine for 619 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: a moment that the stock market had tanked over the 620 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 1: last at some point of the last year, Imagine that 621 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:34,240 Speaker 1: hiring had slowed dramatically. Would anybody say that Obama's massive 622 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: sea of q E and quantitative easing and and the 623 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: stimulus boone doggle and all the other stuff that was 624 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,280 Speaker 1: done was responsible. No, of course not. They would all 625 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: say that Trump is a buffoon, He's an imbecile, and 626 00:36:50,080 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 1: that's why the economy is bad. So by that standard 627 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:58,120 Speaker 1: that we all know is there, the economy is incredible. 628 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: The economy is doing so very well, and not just 629 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: on a general basis, but as compared to what we 630 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 1: were told would happen if in fact Trump were president. Right, 631 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 1: it's good no matter who you are, But compared to 632 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: the catastrophe they said would happened. Uh, it's it's amazing. 633 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: I mean, the economy is it's almost hard to believe 634 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 1: how good it is. And I just noticed that this 635 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 1: is where that this is where the media unfortunately still 636 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,720 Speaker 1: gets to play such a prominent role. How many stories 637 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: are there on how powerful Uh, the tax cuts have 638 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,480 Speaker 1: been for the economy. How many stories are there on 639 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: even honestly, in the short term more impactful, which is 640 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: a word I know people don't like when you use 641 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:40,959 Speaker 1: that way, but I use it that way sometimes because 642 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: everybody does. How much more profoundly important the anti regulatory moves, 643 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 1: the cutbacks and regulations have been for businesses in this country. Um, 644 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: you won't hear those stories because the media doesn't want 645 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 1: to tell you those stories. And as I've been saying, 646 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 1: what we don't have nearly enough of a folk this 647 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 1: on healthcare or focus on what the Democrats really want 648 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: what it comes to immigration. We're letting the Democrats control 649 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 1: far too much of this narrative going into the midterms. 650 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: That needs to stop. And that's why they've They've brought 651 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:16,760 Speaker 1: Obama out because they think that he's the most powerful 652 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: messenger that they have. Now. I would love it if 653 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 1: President Trump would continue what he's doing, which is call 654 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: out Obama. I mean, his line about Obama putting him 655 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 1: to sleep with the speech is one of the best 656 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 1: political lines I've heard in a long time because it's 657 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 1: so true, because it's the reality of Obama speeches. We're 658 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: all told they were so great, and nobody was allowed 659 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: to criticize, nobody was allowed to say anything about him 660 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: because that would have been mean, you would have even 661 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: been racist. Whatever. But Obama gives really boring speeches. In fact, 662 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: I mean the first two minutes because he's look, the 663 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,879 Speaker 1: guy sounds good, he's you know, uh got a got 664 00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: a certain charisma, and I get all that. But his 665 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: speeches go on and on and and his his baseline 666 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 1: for talking to the American people is really pretty close 667 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:11,080 Speaker 1: to a kind of condescension. It's always, you know, I'm 668 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: I'm amazing, let me solve all your problems. And and 669 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: the amount of uh straw man burning he does on 670 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: the other side is is pretty astonishing, right, It's always 671 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 1: the other side doesn't want babies to have food and 672 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,399 Speaker 1: old people to have healthcare. The other side, that's not 673 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: that's not what the other side wants. Who who told 674 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 1: you that, Obama? Whereas what the other side they don't 675 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 1: believe in food, they don't believe in medicine, they don't 676 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 1: believe in shelter. I'm here to tell you, if you 677 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 1: do what I want, you're gonna have all those things 678 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 1: and more. It's gonna be great. You know, I don't 679 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: think that Obama was as especially when you get him 680 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 1: off the cuff, when you get him off of a script. 681 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: It was never that impressive. And I think that I 682 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: think that Trump could be his kryptonite the way that 683 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: he was Hilary's as well. I think that Trump maybe 684 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: able to destroy the aura of invincibility political invincibility around 685 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 1: around Barack Obama. But but on the economy, folks, the 686 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,720 Speaker 1: fact that they're trying to say that it's the Obama 687 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: economy just goes to show you they have no answers. 688 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 1: They have nothing that they can say that makes it 689 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 1: the economy not good. Uh. So that's why we we 690 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,359 Speaker 1: might be able to defy recent political history here going 691 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,040 Speaker 1: into the interms. I'm concerned about it. I think you 692 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:31,200 Speaker 1: should be concerned about it too. But it is certainly possible. 693 00:40:31,239 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: It is certainly possible for that for the first time 694 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,800 Speaker 1: in a long time, you will see in the first 695 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 1: two years after a new president a well, not a 696 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: massive wave. I think that's certainly true. Um, economic confidence 697 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 1: is really high, by the way, that's the uh, that's 698 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 1: the headline on the Wall Street Journal today. Economic economic 699 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 1: confidence is really really high. Well, it's there, there's there's 700 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 1: truth to that of friends. Uh, it is, and there's 701 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: a lot of hiring, and there's and and now you're 702 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: actually given this place of is it possible that this 703 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: will keep going? Is it possible this will continue? There's 704 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,920 Speaker 1: almost a sense of foreboding. I think that Trump's economic 705 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:19,840 Speaker 1: success thus far it's impossible for it to continue. That 706 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 1: there will be a natural corrective, and that corrective will 707 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: open up the doorway for the Democrats to come rushing 708 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,600 Speaker 1: in and say, ce Ce, we told you, we told you, 709 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: even though that wouldn't if it were a short term thing, 710 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: if it were just as I said, a correction and 711 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,560 Speaker 1: not a crash or or a depression, that would I'm 712 00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 1: prove that what Trump had done was not as beneficial 713 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: as what we've been saying all along. But remember Democrats 714 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 1: have capitalized there. The biggest moments in Democrat political history 715 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 1: in the twenty century and the twenty one century UH, 716 00:41:56,200 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 1: several of them have revolved around an economic cry cyst 717 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: that Democrats leverage to push status and UH and socialist 718 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: policies to enlarge, to dramatically enlarge the government at the 719 00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 1: expense of individual rights and private property and the free market, 720 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: and they've done it because when people are scared, they 721 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: want someone to help them. They want someone to tell 722 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: them it's all gonna be okay. When you're retirement savings 723 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,440 Speaker 1: or your pension looks like it's going up and smoke 724 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 1: and you might lose your house. Anyone who says we're 725 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: gonna make it all okay, you'll listen to truth. There's 726 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 1: the Democrats don't make it all okay. They just spend 727 00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: a lot more of your money, kick the can down 728 00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 1: the road, make it a problem for future generations. And oh, 729 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,440 Speaker 1: by the way, they do all these other bad things 730 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 1: to keep you in the meantime feeling like things are 731 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 1: improving when a reality, they're just writing checks that right, 732 00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 1: and checks their bodies can't cash. I guess that kind 733 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: of makes sense. I'm not even gonna say that was 734 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:56,440 Speaker 1: a movie quote because you already know that. Please also 735 00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: welcome up to the stage the students from Parkland High School. 736 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 1: David Hogg. I have a question for you, guys, who's 737 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 1: ready to save America? So here we got David Hogg 738 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:22,240 Speaker 1: and Michael Moore too, favorite pundits of the the far left, 739 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: the progressive left in this country. Uh notice, You know, 740 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: Hogg now has become a at least an MSNBC circles 741 00:43:29,680 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: a household name, and and he just the grandiose rhetoric 742 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: flows from this kid, who's ready to save America. But 743 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: but he goes on, who's ready to make America the 744 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 1: country that we say is on paper and make it 745 00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: the actual country that it wants to be. You know this, 746 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: this goes over really well with the progressive left. You 747 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 1: know that that that America needs to be ate a 748 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 1: lot better, that it's not the place that we say 749 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,680 Speaker 1: it is, that there's a there's a fraudulence at the 750 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,399 Speaker 1: heart of this thing we call America. Meanwhile, by any 751 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: objective measure, any normal person would say, wow, America. Heck yeah, 752 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: this place is amazing, and it is amazing and in 753 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: fact a lot of ways right now, folks, it's better 754 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,439 Speaker 1: than it's ever been. It's certainly wealthier than it's ever been, 755 00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 1: it's safer than it's ever been. I know it's hard 756 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: to believe, but it's true. It's true. People say, oh, book, 757 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,120 Speaker 1: what about back in the good old days of You 758 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: tell me when the good old days were, folks, And 759 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: I'll say, you mean when there were like Nazi submarines 760 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 1: off the coast of Long Island, or when the Japanese 761 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,319 Speaker 1: were bombing Pearl Harbor, or you know what, when when 762 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: we were concerned about foreign countries invading us and they 763 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,040 Speaker 1: could actually beat us. What what were the good old 764 00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: days when things were so much better here? I would 765 00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 1: just wonder when that was. I know that it's usually 766 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:54,480 Speaker 1: not a crowd pleaser to say things are awesome. People 767 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 1: generally want to hear about catastrophe. But America is pretty 768 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 1: awesome unless you're on the progressive left. But how and 769 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 1: Michael Moore continue, I think it's the most important thing 770 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: to realize. However, it's the problems that we face as 771 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 1: a country, whether it be water in Flint, Michigan, or 772 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:14,080 Speaker 1: the amount of mass incarceration of people in color of 773 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 1: color that can't vote in Florida. The amount of eligible 774 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: African Americans that would otherwise be eligible to vote that 775 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 1: can't because of a previous conviction is in Kentucky, it's 776 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 1: in Mississippi and Alabama it's fifteen to six. These are 777 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 1: people of color that have been historically discriminated against and 778 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:35,759 Speaker 1: still are to this day, and how their voting rights 779 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: taken away it's exactly turn that shame into your vote 780 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 1: if you're not Canadian. I can't help but notice that 781 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 1: Mr Hogg, who is taking a year off before college 782 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:56,359 Speaker 1: to become an advocate for left wing causes. So now 783 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: he's officially appundit, folks. He's no longer a high school 784 00:45:58,680 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: student that we can discussed or debate. He's a public person. 785 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,360 Speaker 1: He's inserted himself into the public debate over policy. We 786 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 1: are allowed to say that he is often ignorant of 787 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:14,320 Speaker 1: the subject matter he discusses, and quite honestly doesn't have 788 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 1: a particularly sophisticated view of a lot of things. And 789 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,799 Speaker 1: I'm being pretty kind. I know some of my conservative 790 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: brethren and uh sisters, what's the female of Brethren cestran, 791 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,359 Speaker 1: I don't know. I gotta think about what that is. 792 00:46:29,920 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 1: But they're much harder on him than that I have been, 793 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 1: although I'm sure that will change over time. Because I've 794 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,320 Speaker 1: a feeling Hog who used to be used as a 795 00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 1: weapon to try to get people deep platformed and fired, 796 00:46:39,600 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 1: I have a feeling that he will in fact be 797 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,279 Speaker 1: somebody who is a weapon for the left. You know, 798 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: I had just a brief aside here I had on 799 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: my show gosh. Today on Rising we had the Media 800 00:46:55,760 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 1: Matters Chairman David Brock. I just have a really tough 801 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 1: time with these people who and but you might want 802 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: to watch the interview because I think I pretty in 803 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 1: in completely um respectful as to impolite a fashion, because 804 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm not respectful toward him. I don't respect what he does, 805 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,280 Speaker 1: but I'm polite because I'm in a place of business 806 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:17,600 Speaker 1: and I'm doing my job. But in polite fashion, I 807 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 1: think I dismantled his foolish argument about Kavanaugh. I don't 808 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,719 Speaker 1: like these people to try to get people fired. I 809 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: don't like this new trend among the uh the the 810 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 1: left wing to do everything in their power to try 811 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: and get people to be, you know, kicked off of 812 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: whatever their platform is, to make sure that they can't 813 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 1: make a living, which which I think is really what 814 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 1: it's all about for them. I think Hog fits into 815 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:45,839 Speaker 1: that category. I think he's one of these people that 816 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 1: is also trying to find ways to eliminate people from 817 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 1: the conversation, from the public conversation. But a We'll have 818 00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:57,320 Speaker 1: more time for Hog later. Notice, how tho his focus 819 00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: of why America is not as great as it should be, 820 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,320 Speaker 1: or is not what it purports to be. He doesn't 821 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:08,839 Speaker 1: mention at all, for example, opioids, and I just find 822 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 1: this really nowhere. He goes right to mass incarceration. And 823 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying that there there isn't some over criminalization, 824 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 1: but over criminalization in the criminal justice system and mass 825 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 1: incarceration are not the same thing. Mass incarceration just means 826 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,000 Speaker 1: we have a lot of people in prison. Well, what 827 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 1: I want to know is did they do bad things? 828 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 1: And are they serving a sentence commensurate with the gravity 829 00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: of their crime. If the answer to those two things 830 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 1: are both yes, I don't have a problem with it. 831 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 1: What conservatives don't like is over criminalization. It's, oh, well, 832 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:47,760 Speaker 1: you destroyed documents in a civil uh and a civil 833 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: probe for you know, business that has a civil liability. 834 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 1: But now you're gonna fall under a DoD Frank guideline. 835 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 1: You could face up to twenty years in federal prison. 836 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I don't like when you wrap 837 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: lobster that you catch off the coast of Honduras in 838 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:05,239 Speaker 1: plastic instead of paper, and therefore you face a year 839 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 1: in federal prison. When we criminalize things that should not 840 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,799 Speaker 1: be criminal, that's a big problem for me. And when 841 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:12,879 Speaker 1: we send people to prison for far too long, that's 842 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:14,239 Speaker 1: a problem for me. And I think some of that 843 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: happens with drugs. But over criminalization is just something that 844 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 1: the left talks about as a means of pandering to 845 00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,160 Speaker 1: this social justice left that believes that the reason people 846 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 1: are in prison is generally racism and structural racism. Well, 847 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: I just want to know if somebody committed a crime, 848 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,280 Speaker 1: then they should be in prison. So we're talking about 849 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 1: all these people being innocent or what does over rather, 850 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 1: what does mass incarceration really means? We know what over 851 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: criminalization means. But he skips right over opioids. If you're 852 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 1: gonna have a rally and talk about the most urgent 853 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: problem facing this country, and you don't jump to the 854 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: fact that seventy thousand people a year and this is 855 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: bipartisan problems, seventy thousand people last year, I think with 856 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 1: seventy three thousand total might might have been upper down. 857 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: A thousand died of drug overdoses from opioids. If you 858 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,600 Speaker 1: are not going to focus on that right away, I 859 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: want to know why. I want to know why. Voting rights. Oh, 860 00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 1: that's right, because the midterms coming up. Why are voting 861 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: rights for felons a more important issue? If you're gonna 862 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,680 Speaker 1: try to do great things and and make America this 863 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,520 Speaker 1: awesome place that you say it's not already, why aren't 864 00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 1: you going to deal with the fact that seventy thousand 865 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,480 Speaker 1: plus people died of opioid overdoses last year? Where does 866 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 1: that factor into all of this? And and of course 867 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 1: with hog you have gun control as a constant. And 868 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,919 Speaker 1: I had to deal with a Lissa Maltto recently say 869 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 1: to me that it's as easy to get a cappuccino 870 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 1: as it is to get an a R fifteen, which 871 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 1: which is just wrong. But she said it, and I 872 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:50,880 Speaker 1: was taken aback because it seems like such a foolish, 873 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 1: such a stupid thing to say. But now, I don't 874 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 1: know if you've seen this, folks, that the new initiative 875 00:50:55,920 --> 00:51:02,040 Speaker 1: out there to try and find a way to uh 876 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 1: cut down on gun violence is California is thinking about 877 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:10,399 Speaker 1: putting a huge price on bullets. That's right. They want 878 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:15,760 Speaker 1: to make bullets more expensive. They think that that's gonna 879 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: be a a an effective uh you know, an effective 880 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 1: way and oh, by the way, and limit ammunition. So 881 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 1: they're gonna make it harder because you know, if you 882 00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:28,319 Speaker 1: can only get a hundred rounds of ammunition, uh, then 883 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 1: you're not going to be able to kill what ten people? 884 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 1: I mean, how many mass shootings do they really think 885 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 1: are going to be stopped because of this? And given 886 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 1: how much ammunition is already in circulation, how much stockpiling 887 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 1: of it has already occurred, this is an idiotic idea. 888 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: I would note that the the only time that they 889 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 1: say this is useful is that in some states ammunition 890 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:54,839 Speaker 1: purchases are not regulated as tightly as firearms purchases, and 891 00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:59,200 Speaker 1: so prohibited possessors are able to get ammunition. Then they 892 00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:02,600 Speaker 1: go over the list they end up arresting them. But 893 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: what I note is that, well, the only reason that 894 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,320 Speaker 1: they're able to make those arrests is that they're effectively 895 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 1: doing a sting operation. And it would be like if 896 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:12,439 Speaker 1: they were selling guns to people and and seeing who 897 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 1: buys one, and it's selling guns to people without doing 898 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,359 Speaker 1: any background check, and then see who buys a gun 899 00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 1: without a background check that shouldn't have one. Well, in 900 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 1: that process, you're also putting a lot of guns out 901 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 1: on the streets. So it's it seems somewhat counterintuitive to 902 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,360 Speaker 1: you as well. We're gonna sell ammunition to everybody, but 903 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:33,560 Speaker 1: then if a prohibited possessor comes up on our list, uh, 904 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:36,160 Speaker 1: we're able to arrest them. So maybe this is a 905 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 1: good law enforcement tactic or a good gun control tactic. 906 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: To that, I say, you know how easy it is 907 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: for somebody to transfer their ammunition to somebody else. I mean, no, nobody, 908 00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:48,880 Speaker 1: nobody's gonna know the difference with that. So anybody who 909 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 1: understands what the rules are, we'll just get around them 910 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 1: by making sure somebody who's not a prohibited possessor, meaning 911 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 1: a felon or somebody somebody who's been convicted of domestic 912 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 1: violence gets their hands on this stuff. So I just 913 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 1: think the notion that you're gonna limit bullets or make 914 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 1: them really really expensive, I think actually Patrick moynihan, Senator 915 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 1: from uh New Jersey, a long time ago, wanted to 916 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 1: wanted to make a hollow point ten dollars or something something. 917 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,279 Speaker 1: Really moynihan had some things he was smart on this, 918 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: this was not one of them. But I would note 919 00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 1: that with guns in general, you have a lot of 920 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: people that say very very stupid things. People that are 921 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 1: otherwise quite intelligent. Are are really buffoonish on the issue 922 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 1: of gun control, and it's because for them, it's as 923 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 1: I've told you, it's a cultural signifier. It's much more 924 00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: about that than it is about actually preventing violence or 925 00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 1: stopping violence from occurring using firearms.
