WEBVTT - Trying To Trade In Some Shiny Shells 0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.200 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.320 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty. 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:17.280 Armstrong and Getty and no he Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:28.000 The shooter evidently raises chickens, and the conversation was about 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:31.600 how many eggs a chicken can lay. One victim ran 0:00:31.640 --> 0:00:33.880 out into the roadway trying to get away from the shooter. 0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.000 The other two victims head. We had several phone calls. 0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:39.880 The shooter himself called nine to one one. Arming yourself 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:43.479 with a handgun when you're under the influence is not. 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:43.960 A good idea. 0:00:44.040 --> 0:00:45.640 There's never going to be a good outcome with that. 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.320 Oh, under the influence, Well, that's explained some of it. 0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:53.400 I guess how you got into a to the death 0:00:53.520 --> 0:00:56.240 argument about how many eggs a chicken can lay? Under 0:00:56.240 --> 0:00:59.320 the influence played a role. Yeah, I think if I'm 0:00:59.480 --> 0:01:03.600 sober and arguing bitterly over the. 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.400 Capacity of chickens to lay eggs, I'm probably gonna keep 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:05.839 it cool. 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:14.160 Well, any of you have rock, some people should make rock. 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:18.720 How many eggs can it the average hen lay? She 0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.840 was dead by about two hundred and fifty to three 0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:29.000 hundred a year five to six per week. Well roughly, yeah, clearly, 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.440 we just have a couple of chickens. You get overwhelmed 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:33.800 by eggs really really fast, like more eggs than you 0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.319 can eat. Yeah. Yeah, I wish I had a neighbor 0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:37.560 with chickens because I love eggs. 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.840 Uh. You know, it's not made clear in this account, 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:46.400 and I find this highly dissatisfying. Is who is claiming 0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:50.400 what reed chicken egg laying? How far apart were they? 0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:54.520 My chicken can lay one hundred eggs a day? No 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.600 it can't, Blue, blue blue, It's lucky if it lays 0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:02.120 one a day. Guy ought to shoot you in your belly? 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:06.080 Who was on which side of the argument? What were 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:10.480 the claims and counterclaims here? What was the evidence presented? 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.280 All had been drinking and none were hit. Well that's 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:20.280 that's at least that's probably good anyway. Wow, Okay, so 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:24.240 this is interesting. Using your credit card at the checkout 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:27.120 line is about to get a lot more complicated now. Now, 0:02:28.040 --> 0:02:33.280 Visa and MasterCards settled a long running legal battle that 0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:39.760 gives merchants more flexibility on card acceptance. So your favorite 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.480 latte at your local coffee shop could soon cost you 0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:45.359 five dollars or five dollars and ten cents or five 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.360 dollars in twenty five cents, depending on how you pay. 0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:53.959 So, first of all, when did we completely abandon having 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:56.040 to show an ID with a credit card? Remember that 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.440 was a thing for many, many years because we're sign 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.320 anything here. What if this wasn't your credit card? But 0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:04.320 now I use my watch. I tap with my watch 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:06.280 all the time. Nobody's ever asked me for an ID. 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:11.680 So yeah, yeah. 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:13.359 So anyway, settlement between Visa MasterCard and some US merchants 0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:17.080 US merchants announced this week usher in a new era 0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:20.320 of tiered pricing at the register, giving businesses more power 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:22.840 to charge fees depending on the credit card you use. 0:03:23.080 --> 0:03:25.040 I like it when I'm behind some old lady who's 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:28.000 got a combination of a check and some EBT card 0:03:28.080 --> 0:03:30.800 and like some coupons, and I don't know, I've been 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:34.800 a gift card. You're combining like five different things. Can 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.080 I just pay for it all and then you get 0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:38.000 the hell out of my way? 0:03:39.080 --> 0:03:43.800 Trying to trade in some shiny shells, a little farger, 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:44.920 a little wamp them. 0:03:45.000 --> 0:03:46.960 Maybe I can come clean up on Saturday. And now 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:48.000 would not pay for the milk. 0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:52.400 So this anti trust battle over interchange fees has been 0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:56.360 going on for two decades, and I can't decide whether 0:03:56.400 --> 0:03:59.880 that makes me wish I had become a lawyer, because 0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.720 oh my god, you talk about you know, two farmers 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:05.120 claim they owned the cow. One farmer pulled on the head, 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.000 the other pulled on the tail, and the lawyer milked 0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:12.480 the cow. They milking this cow for two decades. Settlement 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:15.080 still needs CORD approval, likely to be contested by some 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:16.000 merchant groups. 0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:18.680 Blah blah blah. 0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:20.920 Merchants have always had the right to refuse to do 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:24.200 business with a payment network entirely, like Costco only takes 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:27.120 Visa cards yep, but current network rules say if a 0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.640 store accepts one Visa credit card, it has to accept 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:32.520 all Visa credit cards. Well, the settlement could change that 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.160 practice by allowing merchants to pick and choose which categories 0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.000 of cards to accept within network. 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:41.200 There's also the dollar limit that I don't know if 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:44.480 there's any legality around it, but like I buy something, 0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.560 they say you can only use your card if you 0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:50.120 spent eight dollars or something, and then I got to 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.479 grab something else? What else you got? Okay, a cigarette? Laighter? 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.400 I don't smoke. Is this make it eight dollars? I 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:57.600 don't have any cash? Wow? 0:04:57.640 --> 0:05:00.599 And the settlement could go further, allowing different search charges 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.480 depending on the category your card falls into, Like if 0:05:03.480 --> 0:05:06.760 you have a basic no frills card, you might get 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:09.800 charged two and a half percent of the transaction amount. 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.880 It's the reverse of a cash discount, whereas if you 0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:17.920 have a rewards card it's three percent. Really you really 0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:22.600 wouldn't know what you're paying until you're paying it. 0:05:22.760 --> 0:05:28.440 Paying cash just seems so troublesome. Adey change and then 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:32.240 where am I going to put that? Yeah? Track of that? 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:34.919 And then this story. 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:39.040 A man in France was having a swimming pool dug 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:42.000 in his backyard and they found eight hundred thousand dollars 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:48.760 worth of gold bars whoa uh town council confirmed the 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:50.679 man will be allowed to keep the gold he found, 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:55.120 according to the French Newsman news agency, five gold bars 0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:58.800 and a large amount of gold coins wrapped in plastic bags. 0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.760 The man, who wishes to remain anonymous for reasons that 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:06.560 ought to be fairly obvious, reported define to the local council. 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:10.840 French archaeological officials and law enforcement got involved in determined 0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:14.800 if the gold had been if the gold had archaeological significance, 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.720 in which case it could be considered state property, or 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:22.640 if it was stolen from somewhere and the gold bars 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.719 had unique ID numbers. Law enforcement determined the gold was 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:28.040 not stolen and the bars were only fifteen to twenty 0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:32.320 years old, and so they had no historical significance, so 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:34.719 the guy got to keep them money. My daughter, who's 0:06:35.040 --> 0:06:38.640 in law school right now, became at one point fascinated 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:44.040 by the law of abandoned property, which is fairly complicated 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:51.000 and convoluted because and I don't remember the details of it, 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:54.719 but like, if somebody sells you a house and it's 0:06:54.800 --> 0:06:57.159 left on the property, I think they have a claim 0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:59.880 to it still, But if you then sell the he 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:02.359 and the next guy they don't have a claim against 0:07:02.480 --> 0:07:05.279 him or a certain number of years. Is super convoluted 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:10.480 and interesting. And anybody who's like a scavenger or what 0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:12.840 do you call when you do that at sea, you 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.360 reclaim rex and stuff like that. There's all sorts of 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:16.360 laws surrounding that. 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:21.320 Yeah, I just thinking we should do away with change 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.960 in general, shouldn't. We did away with the penny, but 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:29.040 with inflation, change is not worth much so you're down 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:33.840 less than a dollar, which is like, I don't know, 0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:36.160 forty cents compared to what it was ten years ago. 0:07:36.800 --> 0:07:41.000 And I'd be fine with stores that just don't do change. 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.120 They round up or down for everything. We'll just make 0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.080 it even. Yeah, they'd always round up. I think there 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.200 would be an investigation shortly after whatever. 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:51.680 It's thirty cents. I don't want to carry around some 0:07:51.840 --> 0:07:54.840 nickels and pennies. How about this, Daddy Warbucks. 0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:58.160 Poor people frequently don't have credit cards and need to 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:01.640 do transactions in cash, and therefore we must have change. 0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:04.760 And that's not what I see at the convenience store. 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:08.480 Usually have some sort of government card for the scratchers 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:14.240 vaping and energy drink. Yeah. 0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:16.520 I try to stay away from poor people because I'm 0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:17.800 afraid it might be catching. 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:21.280 But that was a joke. 0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:27.160 That was a joke, friends, just joke, being silly. These 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:31.240 are serious times, confusing, dark, threatening times. Just trying to 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:35.000 have a little fun. You got the AI, you got 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:39.000 the Divors, Bird treading Card, fees. 0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:44.360 Bird flows Center. Yeah, so enough of that. You have 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.320 a gender bending madness. We're gonna get to at the bottom. 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.439 Yeah, a little gender bending madness update with some fresh 0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:50.040 new material. 0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:51.640 You know, I can't decide whether to do this today 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:52.199 or tomorrow. 0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:55.840 Randy Weingarten, one of the most evil people on Earth, 0:08:55.840 --> 0:09:00.760 has a new book out entitled Why Fascists Fear Teachers? 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:02.400 Oh my god. 0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:07.600 It is one of the most malignant loads of guana 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:08.920 I've ever come across. 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:11.640 Aren't that many people I hate? I hate her, I deeply, 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:15.040 deeply hate her. She is a force of evil on Earth, correct, 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:20.360 no doubt. Wow. And then the IO ces big new 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.800 announcement about not having dudes and women's sports as part 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:24.240 of the whole thing we need to talk about today. 0:09:24.320 --> 0:09:29.800 Lots on the way. Stay here. I'm not trying to 0:09:29.840 --> 0:09:33.920 send you to another podcast. But Tucker's latest is chemtrails 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:36.240 are real and it's worse than you even thought with 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:41.040 some special guest. Good lord, Yeah. 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.880 I'll look into that, but right now, it's a gender 0:09:42.960 --> 0:09:44.360 bending madness update. 0:09:44.880 --> 0:09:52.240 So I kept hearing about this thing called the Loco. 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:59.520 We're a brave world, so they Bloom is definitely off 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:06.000 the transgender craze, as the number of young people identifying 0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.520 as transgender has been cut in half in like two years. 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:14.400 Just utterly ridiculous. But the hits keep coming. First, some 0:10:14.600 --> 0:10:16.800 encouraging news from the Olympics. 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:20.400 The IOC will issue the band sometime early next year, 0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:24.080 citing a new scientific review that found evidence men have 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:29.720 a permanent physical advantage over women athletes even after hormone therapy. However, 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.360 The Guardian newspaper says the band could still be a 0:10:32.480 --> 0:10:35.400 year out and that the IOC is facing pushback to 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:39.080 a possible ban on athletes who reported female at birth 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.760 but have male chromosomes and the same testosterone level as men, 0:10:43.200 --> 0:10:47.240 also known as differences in sexual development. That would include 0:10:47.280 --> 0:10:52.120 athletes like South Africa's Casser Semenya, who won gold at 0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:55.040 the London and Real Games before Track and Fields governing 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:59.080 body World Athletics banned DSc athletes from competing as women 0:10:59.320 --> 0:10:59.960 in twenty twenty. 0:11:00.559 --> 0:11:03.960 A new study, you say that shows that men have 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:07.439 a permanent advantage even if they undergo it the transitioning. 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:11.400 I'll be darned it says here they're bigger and stronger 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:15.520 than women. I'll be damned. Good thing they did that 0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:17.319 new study. 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:21.880 Meanwhile, in Atlanta, the poor cops are still trying to 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:25.440 figure out what woke, idiot policy they're supposed to be following. 0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:29.720 Sarah Swinson is a regular at the Tucker Reid Kocher Library. 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.760 She says after she used the ladies room on October twentieth, 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:36.600 a Decab police officer on hand for early voting confronted her. 0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:40.760 He says, excuse me, sir, so misjendering me right away. 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:45.000 You're not a woman. That's obvious. This is a police matter. 0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:48.000 There are women and little girls in there, and I 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:50.040 have to protect them. She says. 0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:51.959 It ended up causing a scene in the middle of 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:54.960 the library, and she tried to de escalate. The next day, 0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.840 she emailed library staff, who she says, reached out to 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:00.679 the Cab County Police, and I asked to Cab County 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:03.440 CEO Lorrain Cochran Johnson about all of this. She told 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:07.200 us the county supports the LGBTQ community, calling this a 0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:11.120 teachable moment. The county further clarified their official position is 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.640 for library patrons to use whichever bathroom aligns with their 0:12:14.720 --> 0:12:15.560 gender identity. 0:12:16.440 --> 0:12:18.959 This is well trod ground, I realized, but it just 0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:22.920 scurted me. What is the argument for why if you 0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:25.280 got a penis, but you feel like a girl, you 0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:27.760 should be in the girl's restroom as opposed to in 0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:31.000 the restroom where every trans women are women. That's a 0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:33.600 woman right there. That's an argument, but we all shouldn't 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:35.840 that man with the low voice, Jack, that was a woman. 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:38.920 That's my favorite part of the report is just the 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:42.320 the reporter was so matter of fact. She she was 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:47.160 in the bathroom, and then Sarah. 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:48.240 I used the restroom, the woman's restroom, like I've been 0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.760 for months. I mean, he says, excuse me, sir. So 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.360 look he misgenders me right away. He says, you're not 0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:57.120 a woman. That's obvious. I said, how dare you? The 0:12:57.120 --> 0:12:58.400 poor little lady was offended. 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:02.760 That doesn't seem out aligned. Say I believe you're a woman, 0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:04.600 and I'll call you she and call you by your name. 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.040 You're a woman, but you got a penis, so all 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:08.840 the penises are in one room and all the vaginas 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:09.560 are in a different room. 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.880 Ye have suggested just have anies and auti's you call 0:13:12.920 --> 0:13:15.240 yourself whatever you want. But that is giving too much 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:18.440 ground to the transgender radical gender seria crowd. I won't 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:21.440 do it. It's a decent middle ground, I suppose for 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.400 a place like Atlanta that's trying to be woke, but 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:28.320 it's still absolutely ridiculous. Anyway, Again, ma'am, I'm sorry you 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.360 were offended. This is offensive. 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:35.400 Faith Blue hears Okay. Faith Smith was. 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:37.400 A twenty eight year old woman and inmate at the 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:41.520 Washington Correction Center for Women, viciously attacked a couple of 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:45.199 months ago by a six foot four inch male child molester. 0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:51.439 Identify identifying as a transgender woman. And of course Washington 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:54.040 State puts men who claim to be women in women's 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:57.920 prisons out of some sort of psychosis. And here's a 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:00.800 gal who spent some time in the Central California Women's 0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:04.000 Facility in Chochilli, California, one of the largest women's prisons 0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:07.200 in the country, and she's writing about how she saw 0:14:07.240 --> 0:14:10.120 firsthand how critical single sex spaces are for the safety 0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:15.640 and dignity of incarcerated women. And she says one case 0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:18.320 still haunts me. A male inmate isolated in a men's 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:21.120 prison for assaulting bunk mates was moved into a women's 0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:24.920 cell with seven women. These women were trapped, their voices ignored. 0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:30.040 This guy beat them through, her to the ground, punched 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.240 and cooked her, kicked her relentlessly. 0:14:32.720 --> 0:14:36.400 I thought horrible. I thought this aspect of it would 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.360 get taken care of her with a lawsuit. I thought 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.480 that that would happen early on. Somebody would sue a state, 0:14:41.680 --> 0:14:44.680 get like a half a billion dollars because you put 0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:46.160 a dude in prison with me, and that put it 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:48.520 end to it. But it hasn't yet. Takes a while. 0:14:48.560 --> 0:14:50.720 It takes a while the work its way through the system, 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:55.880 I would agree. And all the poor kids mutilated, they're 0:14:56.120 --> 0:14:59.600 actually who are caught up in the social contagion. In 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:02.320 the last several years, there are still a hell of 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:04.960 a lot of them that are struggling to convince themselves 0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.040 they did the right thing, because to admit otherwise would 0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:13.000 be utterly heartbreaking for everybody involved. And so that's part 0:15:13.000 --> 0:15:14.680 of the reason for the delay in that sort of 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.480 suit these and there have been a handful anyway of 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:20.360 the kids who got whisked along the activist pipeline and 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:24.240 got their body mutilated and castrated chemically and the rest 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.240 of it, and now will regret it. But those lawsuits 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:28.400 will come. Got a couple more stories for you. A 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:30.680 federal judge is ruled that the Bureau of Prisons, oh 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.720 this is a federal judge must provide sex change procedures 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:37.360 to a convicted pedophile who recently began identifying as transgender. 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:41.760 Brian Buckingham forty seven, serving Morgan twenty one years forty 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:44.080 seven just now determined. You know what I think I've 0:15:44.080 --> 0:15:46.160 been chick. I'll down I've been wrong for half a century. 0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:47.600 Brace yourselves, folks. 0:15:47.640 --> 0:15:51.320 He sexually abused his own ten year old son and 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.320 produced child porn with the. 0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:56.480 Boy, murder him or put him to death. 0:15:57.120 --> 0:16:02.480 Shortly before sentencing, Buckingham began identifying as nanny, love them 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.880 to be female and put her to death, and in 0:16:05.960 --> 0:16:09.800 court filings, the judge said they have to provide gender 0:16:09.840 --> 0:16:14.480 affirming treatments like hormone therapy because his sexual dysfunction or 0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:18.040 his dysphoriat worsened his depression in suicidal thoughts, and Magistrate 0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:22.200 Judge David Crystal ruled that yes, that indeed, tax. 0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:25.400 Dole will happily refer to her as her as we 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:28.720 give her the sodium pentathal. Excellent. I love that idea. 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:33.320 And finally, in disappointing news for New Hampshiretes, the first 0:16:33.320 --> 0:16:36.160 openly trans lawmaker in the United States who was hailed 0:16:36.160 --> 0:16:40.200 as a trailblazers, admitted to sickening child sex charges involving 0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:43.960 young kids in a daycare. Former Democratic New Hampshire Reps 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:48.560 Stacy Marie Lawton, a biological male who identifies as female, 0:16:48.600 --> 0:16:52.440 pleaded guilty to charges including child sexual exploitation of children 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:55.120 in Boston federal court. Faces up to thirty years in 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:58.280 federal prison. You don't even want to hear what this 0:16:58.400 --> 0:16:59.080 guy did. 0:16:59.280 --> 0:16:59.760 No, I don't. 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.840 He's sexually confused and sick. That's taken a couple of 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:07.080 different forms, including I'm a girl. Now it's a mental disorder, 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:09.639 gender bending madness update. 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:14.080 Oh's rough, yep. Trump speaking at Arlington. We'll have a 0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:16.040 little clip of that for Veterans Day, among other things 0:17:16.040 --> 0:17:21.439 coming up. Armstrong and Getty today, to every veteran, we 0:17:21.560 --> 0:17:28.320 love our veterans. We say the words too often left unsaid. 0:17:28.760 --> 0:17:38.040 Thank you for your service. Thank you very much. President 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:42.040 Trump at Arlington National Ceremony Cemetery for Veterans Day, talking 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:45.680 to lots of people, talking about the one million people 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:47.879 that have given their lives in our nation's history to 0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:51.320 protect this country and our culture. We talked earlier about 0:17:52.200 --> 0:17:57.080 how three quarters of people say they would fight for 0:17:57.119 --> 0:18:02.720 their country. In Asian India, for instance, about a third 0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:06.879 in Europe and Canada would be willing to fight for 0:18:06.920 --> 0:18:08.240 their country. So if you want to hear more of 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:10.320 that conversation, that was an hour three I think get 0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:12.840 the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. That's a downer. 0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:17.120 That is a dowter. What's your best joke? I need 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:20.200 something whimsical here, Michael, before I go into something else 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:23.120 that is depressing but very very interesting, but very interesting. 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:25.000 What's the best joke we got left? We haven't played 0:18:25.320 --> 0:18:26.159 your favorite one? 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:29.439 Hey, finally, Taco Bella's, We've gone offering a Baja Blast 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:33.040 Pie chiller, which features a slice of Baja Blast pie 0:18:33.280 --> 0:18:35.879 blended with vanilla ice cream and top with whipped cream 0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:39.800 and chero crunch. That story again, weed is getting way 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:40.480 too strong. 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:47.600 Wow, that is some meal. Oo. Wow, sounds kind of good. 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:50.680 I just listening to a podcast yesterday. They got into 0:18:50.680 --> 0:18:56.040 a conversation about sandwiches. I don't know a lot about sandwiches, 0:18:56.240 --> 0:18:58.359 but like this, it's like subway sort of sandwiches. What 0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:01.600 do you call sandwich? Like that? As a subway sandwich, 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:05.879 there are a number of different regionals hogyes, subway sandwiches, 0:19:06.119 --> 0:19:09.440 grind grinders, whatever, they are right, and I just thought 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.080 somebody mocked Subway. They said, well, one thing I wouldn't 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:15.280 do is get it at Subway, And my main experience 0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:17.720 with sandwiches like that is from Subway. And I just thought, 0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:20.680 I've got to work at branching out. I don't know 0:19:20.720 --> 0:19:22.040 if I can do that in the town I live in. 0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:25.680 But places that make, you know, real sandwiches with real 0:19:25.720 --> 0:19:28.640 bread and real ingredients to try that out. 0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:34.119 Well, well, Subway does. They're just fairly straightforward. I would 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:37.680 say that there are sandwich shops that way more adventurous 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:41.040 in their ingredients and just interesting flavor combinations with Subways. No, 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.720 they were talking about They weren't talking about different stuff. 0:19:43.760 --> 0:19:47.199 They're talking about like, you know, roast beef on bread 0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:51.800 with mayonnaise and mustard being completely different at a non 0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:53.679 Subway place. You tell me, because I don't have the 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:56.159 I don't have the experience it is, you would say 0:19:56.200 --> 0:19:59.520 that's accurate. Yeah, yeah, just the way the meat is 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.200 seasoned than prepared and all a little more painstaking. 0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:04.719 You can pay more money for it, but right I 0:20:04.760 --> 0:20:08.399 expect that. Yeah, Okay, I need to seek that out 0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:15.719 of my life. Life's too short. Teat you want something depressing, Oh, yes, 0:20:19.280 --> 0:20:23.080 you see. San Diego has released a new report documenting 0:20:23.119 --> 0:20:26.720 a steep decline in the academic preparedness of its freshmen. 0:20:27.760 --> 0:20:29.600 We've been on this story for quite some time. 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:33.639 The number of entry knock me down with a useless diploma, 0:20:34.040 --> 0:20:37.520 no kidding. The number of entering students needing remedial math 0:20:37.760 --> 0:20:42.720 remedial math as a college kid has exploded from one 0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:46.359 in one hundred back in the early two thousands to 0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:52.880 one in eight whah, some of the numbers around one 0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:58.479 percent to what's one in eight fifteen percent. 0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:01.439 The report also showed that nearly one in five students 0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:04.120 failed to meet entry level writing requirements. 0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:07.560 Fuck, I need remedial math. That's kind of funny. That's ironic. 0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.320 From one percent to twelve and a half percent. I'm sorry, 0:21:10.400 --> 0:21:12.760 what was that remedial writing? Yeah, it doesn't surprise me. 0:21:13.080 --> 0:21:15.880 Very low. Also, the supuriation does coincide with the COVID 0:21:15.960 --> 0:21:21.480 nineteen pandemic, but standardized the elimination of standardized testing because 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:26.600 that'd be unfair to certain groups and is racist. Great inflation, 0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:28.600 which we all know about. It's been good for the 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:30.800 teachers to be able to say all of my students 0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:33.880 are now getting bees even though they would have been 0:21:34.240 --> 0:21:38.120 c's twenty years ago, and the expansion of admissions from 0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:42.400 under resourced high schools but forcing colleges to be able 0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:45.359 to allow them in. Here's my favorite part of this 0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.320 story though, that the mention the reason that I brought 0:21:47.320 --> 0:21:51.439 it up percentages of students who correctly answered questions at 0:21:51.480 --> 0:21:56.000 each grade level. So they they ask college kids coming 0:21:56.000 --> 0:21:59.360 into college at U SEE San Diego, they had them 0:21:59.400 --> 0:22:03.320 do math for like first grade math, second grade math, 0:22:03.359 --> 0:22:06.080 third grade math up through eighth grade. So the good 0:22:06.119 --> 0:22:09.800 news is people coming into UC San Diego, which is 0:22:09.840 --> 0:22:14.159 an expensive college to go to, eighty seven percent of 0:22:14.160 --> 0:22:16.720 the people going to the university could do first grade math. 0:22:16.880 --> 0:22:22.760 Shouldn't it be higher than that first grade? So you 0:22:22.840 --> 0:22:25.360 got slightly over one out of ten that can't even 0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:30.840 do first grade math? Why are they at your college? Boy? 0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:36.920 I knew high school diplomas were worthless and perfunctory. They're 0:22:37.000 --> 0:22:41.880 given out automatically. I had not realized it was that bad. Well, 0:22:41.920 --> 0:22:42.639 I had the experience. 0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:44.160 I've talked about this on the air, and I hate 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:46.639 talking about it because some of the people involved are very, 0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:50.280 very nice people who worked really hard helping me and 0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:54.560 my kid. But they were so hell bent on getting 0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:56.399
