People he calls, quote, 24 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 6: the enemy from within. 25 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 4: So I'm going to bring people together. He's going to 26 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 4: put you in concentration camps. That is the final argument. Okay, 27 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 4: all right. We talked yesterday about the freak out over 28 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 4: the Washington Post's non endorsement of a presidential candidate, a 29 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 4: number of their writers and editors wedding their pants and 30 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 4: screeching breaking news. 31 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: I'm looking.

Desperation and above it, CNN. 42 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: Latino voters in swing states angry about joke, CNN. Well, 43 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 4: you know what, given the the might of the media 44 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 4: and its uniform reporting of these stories, all from the 45 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 4: perspective to the left, all telling Hispanic America that, oh yeah, 46 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 4: this guy at the Trump rally said Puerto Ricans are garbage. 47 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and probably ought to be murdered. That's what he said, 48 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: more or less. 49 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 5: Yeah. 50 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 4: So if this is the most consequential election of my lifetime, 51 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 4: as I'm being told, that's the issue five days out, 52 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 4: six days out from the election, Yeah, comedians joke about 53 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 4: Puerto Rico. 54 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, wow, wow, wow? Is right? Monarchy now, democracy 55 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: doesn't work. It is the most election of our lifetimes. Yeah, 56 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: I'd forgotten that. 57 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,119 Speaker 4: So back to the WAPO freak out and Jeff Bezos 58 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: deciding they aren't They're going to go back to the 59 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: roots and not endorse presidential candidates because they are losing 60 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 4: seventy seven million dollars a year. Because everybody thinks that 61 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 4: the WAPO and other mainstream media is wildly biased, and indeed, 62 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 4: their approval ratings are below that of Congress, which is 63 00:03:56,120 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 4: below that of you know, vomiting and headaches. So anyway, 64 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 4: that's the that's the subtext, the setup for this. 65 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: Oh I thought it was interesting. 66 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 4: Somebody directed me to the comments on the Jeff Bezos 67 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 4: editorial explaining why the WAPPO would would follow that policy henceforth, 68 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 4: and every single one of them was an ad hominem 69 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 4: attack or at the best, this is the best one 70 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 4: I found. 71 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: Uh, Jeff, I edited your statement. 72 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 4: Now more than ever, the world needs a credible, trusted, 73 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 4: independent voice, and we're better for that voice to originate 74 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 4: than the capital city, the most important country in the world. 75 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 4: Many of the finest journalists you'll find anywhere work at 76 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 4: the Washington Post, and they work painstakingly every day to 77 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 4: get to the truth. So while that, unlike virtually every 78 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 4: other comment in the first thirty or so, wasn't a 79 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 4: you're a stupid, a hole and billionaire suck and you 80 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 4: should shut up, which is most of the comments, that 81 00:04:56,160 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 4: was just simply denying his case or pretending it doesn't exist. 82 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,039 Speaker 4: The numbers now, two hundred and fifty thousand subscribers have 83 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 4: canceled their Washington Both subscription. That's ten percent of their 84 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 4: total subscriber number, right, And I'll bet Bezos is surprised 85 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 4: by that, but not completely surprised, because his whole point is, look, 86 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 4: we've put all of our eggs in one ideological basket, 87 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 4: and we've given away all of our credibility. It is 88 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 4: not that shocking that the current customer base is what 89 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 4: I just described, right, there are people want nothing but 90 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 4: left wing news. So no, I'll bet he's not shocked 91 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 4: by the outrage, but maybe by the gravity of it, 92 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 4: the size of it. Anyway, that's kind of a lead 93 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 4: up to this which I found very interesting from Fred Bauer, 94 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,919 Speaker 4: who writes for National Review, among others, And this is 95 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 4: he is a very serious guy, and this is not 96 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 4: some sort of you know, crazy Pizzagate QAnon stuff. This 97 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 4: is this is who people are actually paying attention to 98 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: inside the Beltway and in the intelligencia. 99 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: Of progressive New York. 100 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 4: It's these two Harvard professors, Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblot 101 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,239 Speaker 4: of How Democracies Die Fame if you're familiar with that book. 102 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 4: But they have been advocating this complete civil society resistance 103 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 4: to Trump if he returns to the White House. It 104 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: reminds me of you know, the fabulous Well it doesn't 105 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 4: matter Michael Pillsbury's book One hundred Year Marathon, But China 106 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 4: has a whole of society program to resist, to oppose 107 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 4: the United States. From bankers to media, to the military, 108 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 4: to shopkeepers, to investment investors, to students in the United States, 109 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 4: to Chinese home town leagues in the United States. Every man, 110 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 4: jack of them needs to be against the United States. Well, 111 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 4: Levitsky and zablat have have and if you wonder about 112 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 4: their influence, when Chuck Schumer was trying to blow up 113 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 4: the filibuster, he had these two addressed the Senate Democratic 114 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 4: Caucus explaining why you had to blow up the filibuster 115 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 4: to save democracy. But so anyway, these guys are calling, 116 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 4: in writing and in meetings for a societal mobilization in 117 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 4: which quote, influential groups and societal leaders, chief executives, religious leaders, 118 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 4: labor users, leaders, prominent retired public officials must speak out 119 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 4: social mobilization. Societal mobilization means a coordinated effort by business, religion, 120 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 4: elite academics, and others to oppose the elected government when 121 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 4: it crosses some red line. Power actually asks whether it 122 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 4: pledges some democratic politicians to try to pack the court. 123 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: What itself passing be passing over a red line is 124 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 4: unaddressed in this essay. But anyway, so this idea of 125 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 4: unified resistance is sacred among the New York Times, Chuck 126 00:07:55,600 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 4: Schumer AOC crowd, and the Washington Post screwed it up 127 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 4: or Jeff Bezos screwed it up. That's why everybody's freaking 128 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 4: out so much, is because they're all in on this plan. 129 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 4: They're all down with this idea, and they've got to 130 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 4: have the wappo in on it, right. 131 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 7: Uh. 132 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: I heard. 133 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 4: I listened to a long podcast with Schultzberger, the guy 134 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 4: that's the head dude at the New York Times. It 135 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 4: was interesting to me to find out these these are 136 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 4: really big organizations, and you know, being the publisher or 137 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 4: the owner or whatever, you don't have near as much 138 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 4: like fingertip control of what's going on as I like 139 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 4: have always imagined. I mean, the Schultzberg ad the New 140 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 4: York Times was talking in the podcast about how he 141 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 4: regularly like gets up in the morning and reads The 142 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 4: New York Times to think, oh my god, I can't 143 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 4: believe we printed that or whatever. 144 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: I mean. 145 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: It's not like he's controlling on a day by day 146 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 4: basis what's on the front page. 147 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's true. 148 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 4: You have to delegate authority to various people, So I 149 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 4: would think to turn things around, Bezos is going to 150 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 4: have to get rid of a bunch of a bunch 151 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 4: of people in important positions. I would think, well, right, 152 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 4: And your New York Times example is a good one 153 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 4: and kind of instructive in that even if the owner 154 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 4: or even the publisher decided we're way too biased, I'm 155 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 4: going to replace some people. You almost have to overdo 156 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 4: it to neutralize it. I mean, it's like meeting a 157 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 4: force with the force. You've got to meet it with 158 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 4: enough force to slow its momentum. And in the case 159 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 4: of a WAPPO or New York Times, the momentum towards 160 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 4: the left is enormous. So yeah, you would have to 161 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 4: just do an enormous purge I think to even render 162 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 4: it neutral. Well, it's probably the wrong time of any 163 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 4: four year period to be having these conversations, because things 164 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 4: are the craziest they ever get in terms of media 165 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 4: coverage right now, days before a presidential election.

It's easy to see once you 224 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 4: become aware of it what I was talking about before, 225 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: and certainly in twenty sixteen. My god, it included the 226 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 4: FBI and fifty current and former intelligence officials and whatever. 227 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 4: The intelligency crowd is absolutely bought into the notion if 228 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 4: we all have to oppose Trump every minute of every day, 229 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 4: no matter what, in spite of the fact that fifty 230 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 4: percent of the population or so we'll find out next week, 231 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 4: think no, we'd prefer him to the Democrats, thank you 232 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 4: very much. We know something about the people that set 233 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 4: those ballots on fire at the dropboxes in Oregon and Washington. 234 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:32,679 Speaker 4: I'll give you a guess what kind of people they 235 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 4: might be Stay tuned for that. 236 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 8: In other news, Donald's recently announced that it's quarter pounder 237 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 8: is back on the menu after health officials ruled out 238 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,920 Speaker 8: beef as the source of any collide routbreak. They've also 239 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 8: managed to rule out chicken as the source of McNuggets. 240 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 4: To McDonald's joke, I haven't been following this that closely. 241 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 4: Have they identified where the problem came from? Or is 242 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 4: it still a mystery or they haven't figured out I 243 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 4: can't answer it with authority. I thought a couple of 244 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 4: days ago they'd nailed it down to one supplier of onions, Katie, 245 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 4: do you know? Yeah, they had nailed it down to 246 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 4: Taylor Farms. Okay, does Taylor Farms know how it happened? 247 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 4: I was just wondering because I thought, Wow, could this 248 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 4: be China ran somebody just trying to figure out, you know, 249 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: a little dry run, a messing with our food supply? 250 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 4: So you don't think of amputaging. Are sacred burgers exactly? 251 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 1: Oh no? Or you know what happens? Could just be 252 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: that too. This news came out yesterday. 253 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 4: Because the election's going on, you don't hear anything other 254 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 4: than what Trump or Kamala Harris says, but US airlines 255 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 4: are now required to automatically refund you for a canceled flight, 256 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 4: which should have been the case all along, as opposed to, oh, 257 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 4: you give me two drink tickets and I get credit 258 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 4: for the next flight or whatever. 259 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: No, we had a deal.

You canceled my flight. 261 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 4: They have to give you your money back immediately now, which 262 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 4: is completely fair. I think I go to the butcher 263 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 4: shop and say I need a leg of lamb tomorrow night. 264 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: I go tomorrow and they say, no lamb.

Just 270 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 4: for a second. I need to borrow it. Whether the 271 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 4: government should be involved with that or it should be 272 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 4: free market, it's kind of difficult. But then you got 273 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 4: you know, you only have so many airlines and the 274 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 4: barrier of entry for it to become an airline and 275 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 4: all that. 276 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 277 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 4: I'm not smart enough to figure that out.

I guess you find it funny. 338 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 4: Come on, I guess for a dull business meeting, I'm 339 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 4: fine with that. 340 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: Don't deal with children. I am highly amused by it. 341 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 4: For like a tele conference for some corporate thing, it's 342 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 4: funny and it just is. 343 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: Not children. 344 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 4: Oh good lord, can we please stop sexualizing children? Anyway? 345 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 4: I said to Jack, Hey, I've got a bunch of 346 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 4: non political stuff we can do here. If you're into politics, 347 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 4: stay with us. The race is pretty much tied. Nobody 348 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 4: knows who's going to turn out. You're probably garbage. Trump's 349 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 4: gonna put you into prison camp. 350 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: Anyway. It's a pretty summary will Gobba black garbage. 351 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 4: Yes, so, but I realized this is almost semi political, 352 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 4: this story, but I still like it. America has a 353 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:42,840 Speaker 4: newish archivist. This gal was put into the gig just 354 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 4: before the whole Trump mar a lago thing. She wasn't 355 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 4: in charge of it. She just got the job right 356 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 4: as that was happening. But her name is Colleen Shogan 357 00:19:53,320 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 4: or Chagan. Anyway, she's now very controversial. Pointy now, remember 358 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 4: because the National Archives and Records Administration, which operates a 359 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 4: popular museum on the National Mall and is getting together 360 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 4: a brand new America's history through the Archives presentation. Her 361 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: philosophy is, this is a great country, and we're going 362 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 4: to highlight the good stuff in the recent decade or so. 363 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 4: It's all about how mean we aren't Indians. How mean 364 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 4: we were to Japanese during World War Two? How mean 365 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 4: we were to black people. 366 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 1: I mean, this is an awful, evil, racist country. And 367 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: she says, no, I'm not having it. That's not why 368 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: people come here. 369 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 4: And she's getting enormous pushback from her staff, but I oh, 370 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 4: get them. 371 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: Our radio studio, by the way, is built on the 372 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: land that once belonged to the Rappa Hoose and they 373 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: would have two brave warriors get up every morning and 374 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:53,360 Speaker 1: describe the news of. 375 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 4: The day and a seven inch of it with some 376 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,640 Speaker 4: nice native humor. 377 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: Stuff. 378 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 4: Anyway, it's I think it's it's terrific. Now, if you 379 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 4: are doing a serious study of the history of America 380 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 4: in the nineteenth century, for instance, and you want to 381 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 4: talk about treaties with Indians and broken treaties and whatever, 382 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 4: that's absolutely legitimate, one hundred percent legitimate. It's rough. It's 383 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,840 Speaker 4: the history in the world. But it's rough, well, of course, 384 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 4: yeah yeah. But if you are going to the National 385 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 4: Archives to to take in the history of the country, right, no, 386 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 4: it's it's jeez, Louise the whole And this is so childlike, 387 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 4: it's so knee jerk that self loathing is absolutely necessary 388 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 4: to be a progressive and good standing I mean, no 389 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 4: matter what the actual balance of historical good and evil 390 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 4: and mistakes and triumphs and all not the only It's 391 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 4: like JT's email we featured like an hour ago. You 392 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 4: cannot be positive or optimistic in progressive circles. You must 393 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 4: be angry and self loathing. You don't get a choice. Well, 394 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 4: it's all about what you emphasize. Obviously, all the stuff 395 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 4: can be true history, but why emphasize that. I don't 396 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 4: exactly understand what the point of it is. Well, you 397 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,159 Speaker 4: grew up going to schools that employed Howard Zinn's awful 398 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 4: America hating view of history. Anyway, it happened under our watch, friends. 399 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 4: Totally different topic. American Airlines is now busting people who 400 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 4: cut the boarding line try to board before their group 401 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 4: boarding group two. Then you got some group three a 402 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 4: hole joint. Right, Oh life right, Life's come. So passengers 403 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 4: in boarding group one were filing onto American Airlines flight 404 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,479 Speaker 4: to Dallas when an I'm gonna sound went off at 405 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 4: gate B eleven. 406 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: Dip dip, dip, doop. 407 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 4: Decade agent delivered the bad news the passenger, you're a summary. 408 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,119 Speaker 4: You're in group five four, Can you please wait for 409 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 4: your group? It went off again minutes later. It looked 410 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 4: like the last gasp sound of AirPods running out of 411 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 4: juice or some sad. 412 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: Game over music for an old video game. 413 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 4: That's how they describe this sound. You know, this is 414 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 4: the modern internet, exactly, O, this is the internet. They 415 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 4: ought to have a link to the actual sound. You'll 416 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 4: be boarding with group five, sir, the agent said. Five 417 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 4: more passengers were turned back before group. 418 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: Two was called. Wow. 419 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 4: I always follow the rules because it doesn't matter that 420 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 4: much to me. But I'll bet there are lots of 421 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 4: people been doing that their whole lives. 422 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: No no, no, no, yeah life hack board with the board. 423 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 4: With group one. They never stop you. Yeah, Now that 424 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 4: makes you was jerk. You realize we all know we 425 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 4: could do that. We've known people like that. Our old 426 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 4: producer Dominic was like that, You're just a sheep. If 427 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,159 Speaker 4: you follow those rules. If we all did what you 428 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 4: brilliant people do, the whole thing falls apart. You see 429 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 4: the problem, right, Well, some people don't care, they have 430 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 4: no interest in the social compact. I would like them 431 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 4: not only sent it back to board with their group 432 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 4: but perhaps hurled off the plane midflight anyway, But that's controversial. 433 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 4: That pales in comparison though too in my mind. And 434 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 4: it's in large part of Southwest Airlines phenomenon though it's 435 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,880 Speaker 4: spreading where the anybody who needs assistance or extra time 436 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,679 Speaker 4: boarding may now board. And you got a line of 437 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 4: fifteen wheelchairs and then miracle cure thirteen of those people 438 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 4: walk off at the other end. 439 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: Just fine. Oh, it's a beautiful triumph of the human spirit. 440 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 4: So air stewardess is now can heal people like you know, 441 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: like an evangelist or something. 442 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: You'll be hailed. Oh thank god, rise. 443 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 4: Up and walk out into the terminal if you sit 444 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 4: in a wheelchair, so you can get on a first 445 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 4: and then walk off because you're really fine. You just 446 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 4: want a better see.

If I listed all the reasons, 606 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 10: but I'll name a few to begin with. She shot 607 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 10: straight to the top because of her intellect. Smart lady. 608 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 10: She's the first person in history to win a primary 609 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 10: without receiving a single vote. That's impressive. She's a person 610 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 10: of color Indian. I think she's a femenomenon. She gave 611 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 10: Drew Barrymore a hug, an act that symbolized her willingness 612 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 10: to wrap her arms around the country and give us 613 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 10: all a hug whenever Republicans make us feel sad. 614 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 7: Oh. 615 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 10: She was such a popular vice president that over twelve 616 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 10: million people hiked hundreds of miles to cross our southern 617 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 10: border to vote for her without id in this election. 618 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 10: She has a melodic and soothing voice, especially when she laughs. 619 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 10: I can listen to her laugh for hours. Most importantly, 620 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 10: though she is not Donald Trump. Wow, how can you 621 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 10: put into words the greatness that is Kamala Harris. She 622 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 10: reminds us to look forward to what can be unburdened 623 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 10: by what has been, and she understands, perhaps better than 624 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 10: anyone else, the significance of the passage of time. But 625 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 10: she knows, as all wise leaders do, that there is 626 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 10: great significance to the passage of time. Each minute that 627 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 10: passes takes us from the present into the future. We're 628 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,840 Speaker 10: only here right now in this moment because other moments 629 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 10: like the one that just went by have passed. What 630 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 10: could be more significant than that? We are grateful that, 631 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 10: when America is on the brink of losing its democracy, 632 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 10: the person standing strong against the looming threat of fascism 633 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 10: as a woman is accomplished, intelligent, joyful, and non white 634 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 10: as Kamala Harris.
