1 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:10,320 Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, Luck and Load. Michael 2 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 1: Verie Show is on the air. 3 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 2: And CNN Chief Legal analyst Jeffrey Tubin. In October, you 4 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: were on a zoom call with your colleagues from the 5 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 2: New Yorker magazine. Everyone took a break for several minutes, 6 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 2: during which time you were caught masturbating on camera. 7 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 3: What did you think of the presentation by the lead 8 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 3: house manager, Adam. 9 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 4: Suff I thought it was dazzling. 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 5: I thought the way he wove through both the facts 11 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 5: of the case and the historical context was really remarkable. 12 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 5: It was the second best courtroom address, since it's like 13 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 5: a courtroom that I ever heard after a prosecutor named 14 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 5: Jonathan Benedict and the Michael Schaigel case in Connecticut was 15 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 5: the best I ever heard, and it's still the best. 16 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 5: But that was you and you can the volume of 17 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 5: information he covered using the video, as I think Jake 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 5: mentioned earlier, the you know, the witness testimony, the documents. 19 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 4: It's very persuasive stuff. 20 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 5: What was the comment that got Jimmy Kimmel in trouble? 21 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 5: It was not about the murder he was criticizing. He 22 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 5: was mocking the president and the president's. 23 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 4: Political movement Maga. So what we have. 24 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 5: Here is the administration cracking down on someone for criticizing them, which. 25 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 4: Is much worse. 26 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 5: Than the government cracking down for some sort of offensive 27 00:01:40,040 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 5: conduct relating to good taste. If the Democrats retake the 28 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 5: Senate and they confirm a Donald Trump nominated to the 29 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 5: Supreme Court, they ought to just close down the Democratic 30 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 5: Party and give up. I mean, it would be the 31 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 5: most pathetic admission of weakness and defeat. The idea of 32 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 5: a Democratic Senate giving another seat to Donald Trump when 33 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 5: Mitch McConnell stole one from Barack Obama is simply inconceivable. 34 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: Tonight, I will bestows commendations in this segment, first to 35 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 3: a Republican, then to a Democrat. We will start with 36 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: the director of the FBI, mister Cash Patel, talking about 37 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: violent felons being arrested in the past seven months before 38 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 3: I tell you that news breaking today that in Illinois 39 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: an illegal alien was arrested by ice who is also 40 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 3: a police officer. There is no way you become a 41 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 3: police officer in this country without the municipality for which 42 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: you work knowing that you are illegal. These are things 43 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 3: that are required a police officer has given a great 44 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: deal of power. You know, I know that people love 45 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 3: to crap on officers. I know that people love when 46 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 3: an officer comes up to do their job because you're 47 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 3: doing ninety and a forty. They love to play constitutional 48 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 3: lawyer on them and trip them up. And you don't 49 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 3: know the law. You know how many officers we have in 50 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 3: this country, and you'll get somebody. They'll spend a lot 51 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 3: of time at some weekend seminar on some weekend on YouTube, 52 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 3: and they start spouting a few legal doctrines as I 53 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 3: don't like it. I don't want to live in a 54 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 3: police state. I'm a civil libertarian. But officers are not 55 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 3: to be insulted and denigrated because they do a job. 56 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 3: I don't believe in that. And I realize there are 57 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 3: some people on our side. The circle comes all the 58 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: way around, and they are what used to be a leftist. Okay, fine, 59 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: but this should never happen. Heads should roll. People should 60 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 3: be fired, not this officer who is in the country illegally. 61 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 4: Our laws matter that needs to be dealt with. 62 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: But there are people who signed off on him as 63 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 3: a police officer who should be fired. Forthwith end of story. 64 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,360 Speaker 3: All right, let's start with cash. But and the numbers 65 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 3: of fellows, the work that's being done amazing. 66 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 4: Update it's the three months span. 67 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 6: You had eighty seven hundred arrest of violent criminals. You 68 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 6: had twenty two hundred firearms seized off the streets permanently to. 69 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 4: Safeguard our communities. 70 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 6: You had four hundred and twenty one kilograms of fentenyl seas. 71 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 6: Just to put that in perspective, that's enough to kill 72 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 6: fifty five million Americans alone. You had forty five thousand 73 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 6: kilograms of cocaine seas and thanks to our Department of 74 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 6: Justice partners who had twenty one hundred indictments in three 75 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 6: months from June to September alone, Mister President, that in 76 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 6: and of itself would be historic for a four year presidency. 77 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 6: You did that in seven months because you let good 78 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 6: cops be cops, and you partnered us with the right 79 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,840 Speaker 6: people in the Department of Justice to put the handcuffs 80 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 6: on and bring them the court and put them in prison. 81 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 6: And if that weren't enough, when you look at the 82 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 6: year for the entire seven month period that we're talking 83 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 6: about here, if you look at the past four years 84 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 6: of the Biden tom stration sixteen thousand, seventeen thousand, fifteen thousand, 85 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 6: fifteen thousand, that's the number of rests year over year 86 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 6: of violent felons in this country for the Biden administration, 87 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 6: mister President, in seven months, you had twenty seven twenty 88 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 6: eight thousand, six hundred arrest of violent feminals in just 89 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 6: seven months alone. Because of your leadership and the dedication 90 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 6: to the men and women at the FBI who want 91 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 6: to go out there and do the job they were 92 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 6: prevented from doing because that department used to be weaponized 93 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 6: and politicized. And this is what happens when you take 94 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 6: out the fans of weaponization. This number is historic by 95 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 6: every metric. Twenty eight thousand people have been arrested violent 96 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 6: felons alone. And then when you go over there and 97 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 6: look at some of these charts, if you don't mind, 98 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 6: on the top of the years, look at a few metrics. 99 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 6: We're not supplied from the homelands, mister President, during your registraction, 100 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 6: you have the as found and located fifty four hundred children. 101 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 4: That is a thirty percent increase year to date over 102 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 4: the last administration. 103 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 6: Violent crimes against children arrest alone are up ten percent. 104 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 6: Gang arrest are up two hundred and ten percent in 105 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 6: the last seven months alone, and transnational organized crime Steven 106 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 6: Miller's because a great partner, it is up over twelve 107 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 6: percent alone. 108 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 4: These numbers are historical justice. 109 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: The Grandson's Limbaugh, you would say, right on, right on, David, 110 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: Well done, Michael Berry. 111 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 5: I've been fighting acquisitions after acquisitions. 112 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 3: It's good for Kamala Harris to keep, you know, doing 113 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,679 Speaker 3: book tours and continuing to say really stupid things because 114 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 3: as irritating as it is for you, and I understand that, 115 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 3: and you go, why can't she just go away?

And that's the truth, that is the 123 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: absolute truth. It's good for her to speak so you 124 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 3: can be reminded how close we came, how bad it 125 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 3: could have been. It's good to be reminded of why 126 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 3: we do what we do, why we care while we 127 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 3: talk to our neighbors, why we win them over? And 128 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: don't forget her stolen valor vice president who within the 129 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 3: next last month said that the reason the Kamala Harris 130 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 3: campaign chose him as every vice president is that he 131 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 3: is the alpha white, alpha male whisperer. He's the one 132 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 3: can talk to them and all he knows how they talk, 133 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 3: you know, because he shoots shotguns and coaches a football. 134 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 3: He actually said that. Imagine that dude as the vice 135 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 3: president his crazy wife. Dudes like that always have a 136 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 3: crazy wife. She's the last one to know he's prancing 137 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 3: around the stage doing his jazz hands.

There came a point where people began hating 140 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 3: Joe Biden more than Joe Biden, and for good reason, 141 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 3: which doesn't make Joe any better. It just tells you 142 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 3: how bad she is.

And so my question to my friend 176 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 3: asking for an update, was is he at least is 177 00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 3: he at least out of pain? And he said, yes, 178 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 3: he's on meds, he's mostly sleeping, and he is thankfully 179 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 3: out of pain. He just sent me a message and 180 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 3: he said, I just finished his obituary, and so at 181 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 3: least you're not writing your dad's obituary. To put that 182 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 3: into perspective, if today seemed like it wasn't such a 183 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,319 Speaker 3: great day, we're going to have in our lives some 184 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: very very bad days. And you may have had bad 185 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 3: days before, but that doesn't mean there won't be more 186 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 3: bad days ahead. And I've given a lot of thought. 187 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 5: To this. 188 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 3: And what that means and how to try to make 189 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: a positive out of it, because you know it's possible, 190 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 3: it's for some people entirely likely to simply live in 191 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 3: a state of dread and gloom that these things are 192 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 3: going to happen, and so on your good days, you're 193 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 3: dreading the bad days, which makes the good days not 194 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 3: so good days. And there's nothing really you can do. 195 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 3: It's going to happen. But what I have chosen to 196 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 3: do to make this better is to not take for 197 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 3: granted an average day and do everything I can to 198 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:29,520 Speaker 3: will it to be a good day. If nothing else, 199 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 3: it's a good day relative to that other day which 200 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 3: will happen. And since today is not that day, then 201 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: I'll determine that this is going to be a good 202 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 3: day and have as many of those good days as 203 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 3: I possibly can. Be a guy who came and sang 204 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 3: at the RCCs from Dallas. 205 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 4: He had played. 206 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 3: White boy played pro basketball for a brief period of time. 207 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 3: I think he was a two guard, pretty outstanding basketball player. 208 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 3: Became a country music singer and singer songwriter, rather talented. 209 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 3: I can't remember his name, but that doesn't mean anything. 210 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 3: There are a lot of country There are a lot 211 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 3: of talented folks, especially the newer folks. But this was 212 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 3: a few years ito. It was eight or ten years ago, 213 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: and he had had I want to say it starts 214 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 3: with an R like a ray, like a ray name 215 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 3: something like that. 216 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 4: He had had. 217 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 3: It was probably Josh or Justin or Jake, which is 218 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 3: what most modern country singer's names are. No offense to Josh, 219 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: Justin or Jake. 220 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 4: Am I leaving one out? 221 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 3: Well, it's Jeremy's. Jeremy made a bit of a comeback 222 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 3: there for a little of while not nearly as many Jake. 223 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 3: It's probably the most common of the young country music 224 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 3: singer names. Now, anyway, he had had football, He had 225 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 3: had football, he had had foot cancer, and he had 226 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 3: had one half of one but removed, leaving him looking 227 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 3: like Tom Dempsey. For those of you who are old 228 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 3: NFL fans, back when Tom Dempsey's record I think was 229 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 3: sixty three yards, we thought that would never be never 230 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 3: be surpassed. Nobody ever going to kick a sixty three 231 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 3: And the only reason he did is he had a 232 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 3: club foot. 233 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 4: Not fair. 234 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 3: Now they can kick him for seventy yards. But anyway, 235 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 3: he decided that the name of his album was No 236 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 3: Bad Days. He said, look, every day I shouldn't even 237 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 3: be alive. I've had horrible advanced cancer. I shouldn't even 238 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 3: be alive. So every day is going to be a 239 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 3: good day. I'm choosing that that would be the case. 240 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 4: All right, let's get to it. 241 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: I got a lot I want to get on the show, 242 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 3: and Tim has gotten away from me.

It takes a little 260 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 6: bit of time to defeat it and beat it down. 261 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 6: I'm not asking you to trust me.

Not hypothetically or anything. Then 308 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 7: I'm saying it's like, here's what happened, and there are 309 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 7: there are actual members of my party that have refused 310 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 7: to even acknowledge that this was signicant, you know, And 311 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 7: that's for me where it's like, hey, you know it, 312 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 7: our politics might be different, but this was a significant development. 313 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 7: And now also that also it's what Israel was able 314 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 7: to accomplish, you know, they had to neutralize Hamas has 315 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 7: will h who this and Iran and also another thing, 316 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 7: the Iranian nuclear facilities.

And I follow country then party, 326 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 7: and it's the wrong thing for the country in a 327 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 7: period of chaos.

I grew up 339 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 7: in a conservative part of Pennsylvania, and I grew up 340 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 7: and I knew, I know, and I love people that 341 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 7: voted for President Trump. But they are not fascists, They're 342 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 7: not Nazis. They're not trying to destroy or the constitution 343 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 7: those things. And that's part of another thing. I refuse 344 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 7: to call people Nazis or fascists or I would never 345 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 7: compare anybody anybody to Hitler in those things. And now 346 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 7: that kind of extreme rhetoric is going to continue, We're 347 00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 7: going to be more likely in resulting in extreme kind 348 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 7: of outcomes and political violence and doing all these kinds 349 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 7: of things. Like Charlie Kirk, for me, all I could 350 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 7: say is is like, let people grieve, give people the space. 351 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 7: I'm not going to use that terrible thing in that 352 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 7: pastic assassination to make my argument and try to put 353 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 7: on my views. It's like, my god, you know, he's 354 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 7: a father that had his neck blown out by a bullet, 355 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 7: and now people have forgotten President Trump was in my state, 356 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 7: was shot in the head, and if that would have 357 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 7: could you imagine where our nation would be if he 358 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 7: was hitt in the same way with Kirk. We really 359 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 7: got to turn the temperature down. 360 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 3: We need more people to step forward to make a 361 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 3: statement like that. The Democrat Party has lost its way. 362 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 3: And I'll tell you we're reaching an inflection point of 363 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 3: the Nancy Pelosis and the Chuck Schumers, and that generation 364 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 3: is going to have to pass the torch, whether they 365 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:27,880 Speaker 3: like it or not. They're all one hundred years old. 366 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 3: Our entire government. Mitch McConnell fell again today. He falls 367 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 3: all the time, dottering old man, doesn't know where he is. 368 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 3: He's half the time, he freezes up. He is as 369 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: bad as Joe Biden was, maybe worse. And it is 370 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,520 Speaker 3: odd that we called for Joe Biden to step down 371 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 3: and no one is calling for Mitch McConnell to step down. 372 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 3: He is a doddering old fool and I'm not mad 373 00:22:59,560 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 3: at him. 374 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 4: For being old. 375 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:06,160 Speaker 3: My father's eighty five. He has health challenges. I love 376 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 3: him dearly and I hate that he's going through. That 377 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 3: doesn't make him any less a man. So when I 378 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 3: say he's a doddering old fool, I am pointing to 379 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 3: the fact that he is not in a position to 380 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 3: be a United States senator. He's literally tipping over and falling. 381 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 3: There are so many of them. Dianne Feinstein was out 382 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 3: of her mind there, Kay, Granger, you know Nancy Pelosi's 383 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: barely keeping it together. Chuck Schumer is not any better, Grassly, 384 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 3: I mean, how why do we keep voting for people 385 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 3: who can hardly stand up? I saw, what's the woman 386 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 3: that is like the shadow representative of Washington d C. 387 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 4: She looks like a possum. What is that woman's name? 388 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:52,360 Speaker 4: But she spoke the other day? 389 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,479 Speaker 3: And then if she's walking off the stage or if 390 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 3: it's shuffling off the stage, she looks like she's going 391 00:23:58,920 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 3: to break. 392 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 4: And any moment, what are we doing. 393 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 3: I don't think you need to be a fitness model 394 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 3: to serve in government, but you need to be mentally fit, 395 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,360 Speaker 3: and these people clearly aren't. I keep expecting at any 396 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: moment someone in the Senate to say, Hell, I've fallen 397 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 3: and I can't get up. 398 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 4: Get to clapper, get to clapper out. 399 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 6: Oh yes, yes, yes, yes. 400 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 3: NBC laid off one hundred and fifty employees, roughly seven 401 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 3: percent of their newsroom, and in the process dissolved they're 402 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 3: dedicated editorial teams. Their editorial team that covered black issues, 403 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 3: their Latino issue team, their Asian American issue team, their 404 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 3: LGBTQ community team. Gosh, what's left If you don't have 405 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 3: these specific constituency group beats, you would just have to 406 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 3: cover the news. 407 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 4: How boring. 408 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 3: Nobody in the news. The basic old news is bold 409 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 3: and courageous. The move is part of a reorganization that 410 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 3: separates MSNBC from NBC News under a new entity called Versant. 411 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: Executives describe the decision as an efficiency measure to eliminate 412 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 3: overlap and streamline operations across NBC Universal's news divisions, but 413 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: it also dismantles the network's identity based teams NBC BLK, 414 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 3: NBC Latino, NBC Asian America, and NBC Out. The homos 415 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 3: are very angry. Rich Ferraro with GLAD says the move 416 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 3: is part of a dangerous pattern. It's dangerous, I tell 417 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 3: you of mainstream media outlets choosing to lose trusted and 418 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 3: talented journalists who focus on impotent lgb oh sorry, important 419 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 3: LGBTQ news that otherwise is underreported or not. 420 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 4: Reported at all. 421 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 3: But who will report on the LGBTQ news if we 422 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 3: don't have a reporter who is one and dedicated to 423 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 3: just covering one. If you ever have flash on your 424 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 3: screen one of these dedicated beats and their news, it's 425 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 3: the saddest damn thing you've ever seen. You actually feel 426 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 3: sorry for them because the way it works is they 427 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 3: don't have anything to write about. You run out of 428 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 3: stuff pretty fast. You know, you have this black news sites, 429 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 3: and the problem is there isn't enough news. That's just 430 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 3: black news. You know, guy scores a touchdown, Well that's 431 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 3: not black news. That's about that, says football news. Guy 432 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 3: gets a new job, Well that's not black news, it's 433 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 3: just news. So it has to be the first black 434 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 3: to do this, right, So there's only first, so many 435 00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 3: firsts you can have, so you'll do you try to 436 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 3: find the first black person to throw a baseball left handed, 437 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 3: standing on his ear with. 438 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 4: His toes double joined. It just it gets ridiculous and absurd. 439 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 3: It's not you're not reporting on anything that anyone is 440 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 3: reading and thinking, Wow, I am up to date on 441 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 3: what's going on in. 442 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 4: The world now. 443 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 3: So there's that kind of news the first, and then 444 00:27:54,440 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 3: there is always coverage of black organizations. They do this 445 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 3: in Houston. Houston Chronicle does this. There is Black Restaurant Week. 446 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 3: Oh well, what is that? That is where you're supposed 447 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 3: to go to black owned restaurants. Oh, everybody, You're just 448 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 3: black people, everybody. But if everybody comes, you will be 449 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 3: mad that we've appropriated your seats. 450 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 4: Then you'll. 451 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 3: Then you'll blow up and start. They'll be hair pulling 452 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 3: and wig snatch and we can't have that. I think 453 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 3: what you mean is black people need to go to 454 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: black owned restaurants for Black Week. 455 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 4: Is that what you mean. I think that's what you mean. 456 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 4: I'll do that for you. Think that's what you mean. 457 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 3: So there is always the and then there's there's various 458 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 3: black chambers of commerce. There's a you know, you wonder 459 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 3: about this, so Black Restaurant Week, Well, do y'all, So 460 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 3: y'all are black owned restaurants. How's your restaurant any different. 461 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 3: We're black owned. Okay, well, why is that important? Why 462 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:09,240 Speaker 3: is that something we need to know. I'm just curious. 463 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 3: We don't have restaurants with tile flooring associations where only 464 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 3: restaurants with tile flooring gathered together they support of us. 465 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 4: We have tile flooring. Why would we. 466 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 3: It's not relevant. Do you also participate in the other 467 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 3: restaurant weeks that everybody hates and people do hate them. 468 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 3: By the way, the most hated event in restaurants in Houston, 469 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 3: in every shop, every operator right now is not in 470 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 3: their head. They already know what I'm going to say, 471 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 3: is Houston Restaurant Week. Houston Restaurant Week is this thing 472 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 3: that was put together by one of Cleverly Stone Cleverly. 473 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 3: Cleverly was a big fan of ours. 474 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 4: Nice lad. 475 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: Nothing against Cleverly. You worked our show, Jim, You're you're 476 00:29:55,880 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 3: kind of a forest gump of weird stuff. So anyway, 477 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 3: I liked Cleverly. She was very nice to me. 478 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 4: She was a big fan. 479 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 3: She would she would send nice things when I say 480 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 3: things on air. Nothing against them, Cleverly, But let me 481 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 3: tell you what Houston Restaurant Week is. And I think 482 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 3: she passed away, so I don't have to feel bad 483 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 3: about saying this, although I think they still do it. 484 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: So they go to the restaurants and they say, hey, 485 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 3: use to restaurant Week, and it's kind of like groupon 486 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 3: restaurants are always looking for ways to make more money 487 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 3: because they're all struggling. They're all struggling all the time. 488 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 3: And even if they weren't struggling, a lot of restaurant 489 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 3: owners are gamblers and drunks and they go through multiple divorces. 490 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 3: Not my show sponsors, but this is true of a 491 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 3: lot of restaurants, and this is true of the industry. 492 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 4: So they're always looking for more money. 493 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: They're always short of cash because they either don't have 494 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 3: any cash or when they do have cash, they blow. 495 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 4: It's it's the nature of the beast. 496 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 3: It's a personality type very similar to the personality type 497 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 3: that is a bartender. But that's another subject for another day. 498 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 3: So you restaurant Week. The way that works is they 499 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 3: go to them and get any of this business. We're 500 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 3: gonna have all these people, we're gonna promote it, and 501 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 3: we're gonna list the restaurants in there, and the only 502 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 3: place people are going to go during that week is 503 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 3: the Restaurants Center in Houston restaurant week and you want 504 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 3: to be in there. 505 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 4: Okay, I'll do it. 506 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 6: I do it. 507 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 7: I do it. 508 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 4: And by the way, uh, some of what we raise 509 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 4: is going to go to charity. 510 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 3: Oh wow, okay, all right, okay, so supporting charity and 511 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 3: going to be really busy. Now here's we're going to 512 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,320 Speaker 3: work with you in your menu. So the menu goes, 513 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 3: you need to charge less than usual, and well, you 514 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: need to charge less than usual, and you have to 515 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 3: have restaurant week offerings. All right, So the restaurant changes it. 516 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 3: So the first year they do it, they're always really excited. 517 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 3: And then what they realize is, just like groupon, you 518 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 3: want quality, not quantity. Every restaurant, every bar, every business 519 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 3: comes to the point that they learn you don't want 520 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 3: every person out there as a customer. Some people will 521 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 3: cost you more money showing up than staying home. And 522 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 3: you get young people for instance, groups of people who 523 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 3: come together, for instance. So people have this idea of 524 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 3: you know, here's my customer base, and I don't make 525 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 3: as much as i'd like to, but it's pretty good. 526 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 3: I like more of people just like my customer base, 527 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 3: but I like more of those people, and that's not 528 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 3: who comes during the restaurant week. And during restaurant week 529 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 3: gets crowded with people who send their food back and 530 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 3: complain and don't tip and they're obnoxious and all that, 531 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 3: and your regulars can't get a reservation that week, so 532 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 3: they're mad about it. 533 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,040 Speaker 4: So it's caused a bunch of folks to drop out 534 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 4: a future restaurant week. Obviously, good thank you, I mean 535 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: good night.
