WEBVTT - She Won't.

0:00:01.920 --> 0:00:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 2>Arm Strong and Getty Enough he.

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:26.439
<v Speaker 3>Armstrong and Getty Harris focused on shoring up the key

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:28.200
<v Speaker 3>constituency black men.

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:31.600
<v Speaker 4>Harris announced a new plan aimed at winning them over,

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 4>including one million forgivable small business loans, a focus on

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:40.519
<v Speaker 4>health issues that disproportionately affect black men, and legalizing recreational

0:00:40.560 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 4>marijuana to boost the industry and create new jobs.

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:49.560
<v Speaker 5>That's something. So that's the CBS version of that story.

0:00:49.560 --> 0:00:52.040
<v Speaker 5>I want to hear the Fox version of the same story.

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 2>Politico calls it the Black Men Blitz.

0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:57.600
<v Speaker 6>Vice President Harris making a hard pitch in the home

0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:02.000
<v Speaker 6>stretch to a demographic that she is surprisingly struggling with.

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:07.400
<v Speaker 6>She unveiled her Opportunity Agenda for Black men yesterday, starting

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:11.200
<v Speaker 6>with twenty thousand dollars in forgivable government loans for one

0:01:11.280 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 6>million minorities to start businesses, as well as education, training

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:20.840
<v Speaker 6>and mentorship programs, creating a framework for cryptocurrency, launching health initiatives,

0:01:21.000 --> 0:01:22.880
<v Speaker 6>and legalizing marijuana.

0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 5>I feel like the whole marijuana angle would be called racist.

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:28.959
<v Speaker 2>If you or anybody else.

0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:34.759
<v Speaker 7>Unconstitutional government grants masquerading as loans but only for one race,

0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:36.759
<v Speaker 7>and pot smoking.

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:41.479
<v Speaker 5>That's the big pitch for black men. Oh yeah, and

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:46.800
<v Speaker 5>has been pointed out by many people. Usually you're gonna

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:49.400
<v Speaker 5>lose if in the final weeks of a campaign you're

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 5>spending your time trying to shore up the people you

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:53.960
<v Speaker 5>should be able to guaranteed count on.

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:54.520
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:01:54.760 --> 0:01:58.840
<v Speaker 5>I mean, like if Trump was out trying to clawback

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 5>working class, high school graduate white men.

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:07.760
<v Speaker 7>Right, yeah, blue collar folks who think the country's too progressive.

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:10.800
<v Speaker 7>He's desperately trying to claw them back. Yeah, that's a

0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:11.560
<v Speaker 7>sign of trouble.

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.400
<v Speaker 5>So on that topic, before we get to the interview portion,

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 5>here's a New York Times Siena College poll that's one

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 5>of the most respected poles in America. Top issues among

0:02:22.280 --> 0:02:28.079
<v Speaker 5>black men fifth on the list at four percent. Abortion,

0:02:28.560 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 5>So you can give all your speeches about abortion. Black

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 5>men don't give a crap. They either don't care about

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 5>the issue or they don't like your take on it.

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 5>Immigration's very low candidate character single digits. Also, they don't

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:45.079
<v Speaker 5>give a crap about the whole saving their democracy number one,

0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.399
<v Speaker 5>like with everyone else, the economy number two inflation.

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Why those aren't added together, I don't know, same thing, but.

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you add those two together economy inflation, and you

0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.120
<v Speaker 5>got what forty two percent?

0:02:56.240 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 7>So and black men aren't down with Kamala because they're sexist.

0:03:02.080 --> 0:03:04.360
<v Speaker 7>Oh yeah, we haven't even played the Barack Obama stuffy.

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 7>You know, I've got some great stuff on that. Let's

0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:08.639
<v Speaker 7>go ahead, Michael's thirty eight, if you would.

0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Part of it makes me think that, well, you just

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 1>aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president,

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.120
<v Speaker 1>and you're coming up with other alternatives and other.

0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:20.799
<v Speaker 4>Reasons for it.

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:26.760
<v Speaker 8>So now you're thinking about sitting out or even supporting

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 8>somebody who has.

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:40.360
<v Speaker 1>A history of denigrating you because you think that's a

0:03:41.000 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 1>side of psyche, because that's one being a mandas put it.

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:48.280
<v Speaker 3>Women, Now.

0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 8>That's not exciting.

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:55.040
<v Speaker 2>When has ju denigrated black men?

0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.840
<v Speaker 7>You got to go back to a couple of lawsuits

0:03:59.840 --> 0:04:03.520
<v Speaker 7>and incidents in like the eighties that allegedly were born

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:07.520
<v Speaker 7>of racism. But it's the politics of contempt that I'm

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 7>hearing there. Barack Obama is so incredibly high handed. To

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 7>quote Gerard Baker in the Wall Street Journal, are you

0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.320
<v Speaker 7>considering a vote for Donald Trump because you're bad or

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:21.000
<v Speaker 7>because you're stupid. That's that's the question the Democratic Party

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.120
<v Speaker 7>wants to put to wavering voters in the final few

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:27.280
<v Speaker 7>weeks of the campaign. The closing argument, they think will

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:29.760
<v Speaker 7>convince people to choose Kamala Harrison Stead, including black men,

0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:31.960
<v Speaker 7>which he gets into later. But are you an immorral,

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:35.640
<v Speaker 7>bigoted person one of those notoriously misogynistic black men who

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:38.200
<v Speaker 7>can't stand up any women. Are a white racist who

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:41.920
<v Speaker 7>hates foreigners? Or are you a dupe easily misled by misinformation?

0:04:42.040 --> 0:04:44.359
<v Speaker 7>Maybe you're both. Whatever. You may not be good or

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 7>wise enough to understand, but you must listen to us.

0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:49.720
<v Speaker 7>You're moral and intellectual superiors and do as you're told.

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:50.880
<v Speaker 7>You'll thank us later.

0:04:52.839 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 5>So I have generally thought Barack Obama is brilliant at politics,

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 5>oftentimes winning things. I really wish he didn't win because

0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:06.839
<v Speaker 5>I hated the policy so much. But man, that was awful.

0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:09.760
<v Speaker 5>How did he think that was gonna land? I mean,

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't actually know how it landed, because I'm not

0:05:11.800 --> 0:05:14.839
<v Speaker 5>a young black man who was thinking about voting for Trump.

0:05:15.160 --> 0:05:18.480
<v Speaker 5>But man, anybody telling me, oh, you think you're a

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 5>man because of this? F you dude, I mean that

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:22.320
<v Speaker 5>that whole thing doesn't work.

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:26.039
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, So anyway Obama said, Obama said what he said

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.719
<v Speaker 7>in Baker responds, got that black men could support mister

0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 7>Trump only because they like putting women down. Can you

0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 7>imagine what mister Obama would call a conservative who made

0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.240
<v Speaker 7>such an invidious generalization?

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 2>No self used the word invidious more often. Uh yeah,

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:43.239
<v Speaker 2>that's that's that's stunningly condescending.

0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:44.600
<v Speaker 8>Right.

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.480
<v Speaker 5>And you just heard the New York Times poll. The

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.479
<v Speaker 5>top issues for black men the economy and inflation. I

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:54.920
<v Speaker 5>don't see anywhere it being a man as president or

0:05:54.960 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 5>any of the things that Barack Obama's claiming.

0:05:57.160 --> 0:06:03.400
<v Speaker 7>Keeping the bacas down come on. That is so insulting.

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:04.560
<v Speaker 2>It is it really is.

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:05.720
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.800
<v Speaker 7>Trump is working hard to capitalize on that sort of thing,

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 7>is he? Is he talking about the Obama quote? I

0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 7>know he's really trying to woo more working classmen of

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:24.479
<v Speaker 7>every color because you know, ye hispanic dudes, you black dudes,

0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:29.279
<v Speaker 7>you white dudes, you got the same concerns. Dividing you

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:32.720
<v Speaker 7>by race is only to consolidate their power.

0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:34.719
<v Speaker 5>Don't let them do that. Don't let them put you

0:06:34.760 --> 0:06:37.320
<v Speaker 5>in a pen. I probably shouldn't be doing this at

0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:44.080
<v Speaker 5>all as a white guy. But I feel like, if

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:47.200
<v Speaker 5>you haven't seen the video, there's something about the way

0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:51.599
<v Speaker 5>Barack Obama's They're sitting and he's standing. So it's just

0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:56.480
<v Speaker 5>got such a dad talking to his kid's view to it,

0:06:56.720 --> 0:07:00.240
<v Speaker 5>and he's just got such a you know, Harvard professor

0:07:00.400 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 5>vibe to him now lecturing people about what they ought

0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 5>to feel and think. I just can't imagine that that

0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.679
<v Speaker 5>landed well. Some of you may remember.

0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:14.160
<v Speaker 7>My greatest probably problem with Barack Obama, other than that

0:07:14.280 --> 0:07:18.119
<v Speaker 7>he's a socialist, is that he's an academic. He sees

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 7>the world as an academic sees it. He thinks, if

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 7>he writes it on the talkboard and then strings together

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:29.440
<v Speaker 7>several eloquent sentences about it, the Muslims, for instance, will

0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.920
<v Speaker 7>embrace the Jews and everything will be fine because he

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 7>is so eloquent and persuasive. Just, oh god, he's so pretentious. Anyway,

0:07:37.080 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 7>this is unpretentious. Kamala Harris is stupid, or is it?

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:44.720
<v Speaker 7>I'm sorry, I think I've misquoted the great man. Kamala

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 7>Harris is an idiot, according to Charles C. W.

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:50.600
<v Speaker 2>Cook, and he.

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:54.520
<v Speaker 7>Explains that over the last couple of years. Is familiarity

0:07:54.600 --> 0:07:57.320
<v Speaker 7>is bread contempt, and contempt his bread exasperation. I got

0:07:57.320 --> 0:08:01.560
<v Speaker 7>into the habit of distilling into customarily blunt terms what

0:08:01.680 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 7>I think of our most prominent political aspirance. My modest

0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:08.520
<v Speaker 7>verdict on the incumbent Joe President President Joe Biden was

0:08:08.520 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 7>that he was an a hole.

0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 5>Joe Biden is an a hole. That's Charlie Cook's take on.

0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 5>Charlie Cook's not a Trump fan either.

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 7>My considered take on his presidente sessor, Donald Trump was

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 7>that he is a lunatic herewith to complete the trilogy

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:27.920
<v Speaker 7>known to self use the term here with more often.

0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:29.920
<v Speaker 2>I will love earn another candidate.

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 7>Take Kamala Harris is an idiot, like the little boy

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.200
<v Speaker 7>staring at the naked emperor in the famous fairy Tale

0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.360
<v Speaker 7>of Yore. I can scarcely believe what I'm seeing before

0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 7>my eyes. Since she replaced Joe Biden on the ticket,

0:08:40.920 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 7>reporters have struggled mightily to find kind ways of describing

0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:49.240
<v Speaker 7>Harris is ineluctable. Good Lord, does he have a vocabulary

0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:55.120
<v Speaker 7>inability to convey anything comprehensible, complex or concrete?

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:56.560
<v Speaker 2>And this is great?

0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:59.920
<v Speaker 7>Harris The New York times, is variously proposed, has been

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:07.400
<v Speaker 7>quote strategically vague or quote light on detail, and quote careful. Alternately,

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:10.040
<v Speaker 7>she is quote put her stamp on the art of

0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 7>the dodge, learn to respond quote to unpleasant questions without

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:18.359
<v Speaker 7>answering them, and shown an ability to quote avoid delineating

0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.199
<v Speaker 7>her stance on some issues.

0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.880
<v Speaker 5>Avoided delineating her stance, I'd say.

0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 7>And yet if one were to search for a single

0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.560
<v Speaker 7>word to sum up her candidacyy that word apparently would

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.599
<v Speaker 7>be joy I disagree.

0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 2>I think that the word would be idiot.

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:38.280
<v Speaker 7>Harris isn't vague or careful or disinclined to delineate her stance.

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:43.760
<v Speaker 7>She's wildly, catastrophically, incontestably out of her depth. She's not light,

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 7>she's dull. She's not a dodger. She's a fool. She's

0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:52.000
<v Speaker 7>not joyful. She's imbecilic. She's a nullity of vacuum, an

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.760
<v Speaker 7>actress and empty canvas that is incapable of absorbing paint.

0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 7>Search through Harris's historical press clippings, you will be astonished

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:02.760
<v Speaker 7>by the vastness of space. For in more than two

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:06.720
<v Speaker 7>decades of analyze, analysis, and reporting, Harris has not once

0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:11.880
<v Speaker 7>been credited with a single valuable or original idea that

0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:15.440
<v Speaker 7>is a true fact. What you see on TV is

0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:18.440
<v Speaker 7>what you get in private, a broken battery operated toy

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.920
<v Speaker 7>that can't talk, that can't argue, that can't laugh in

0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:23.880
<v Speaker 7>the right places, and that badly malfunctions if expected to

0:10:23.920 --> 0:10:27.480
<v Speaker 7>transcend the superficial. Asked by Stephanie Rule, what would happen

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.880
<v Speaker 7>to her plan to raise corporate taxes and make billionaires

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.320
<v Speaker 7>in top corporations pay their fair share?

0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.960
<v Speaker 2>That's all quote if the GOP takes control.

0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:39.160
<v Speaker 7>Of Senate, Harris seemed unable to process the concept. But

0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 7>we're going to have to raise corporate taxes, she replied,

0:10:42.480 --> 0:10:44.480
<v Speaker 7>And we're going to have de raise. We're going to

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 7>have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:47.720
<v Speaker 7>pay their fair share.

0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 2>That's just it.

0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 5>Well, that is going to come to a screeching halt tomorrow.

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 5>I think as she's doing an interview with Brett Bhaer

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 5>on Fox, I assume out of desperation. I gotta believe

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:03.079
<v Speaker 5>if they thought going on Fox and doing an interview

0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:04.760
<v Speaker 5>is a good idea, they would have done it earlier.

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 5>I think it's because they're tied Slash losing, and you know,

0:11:11.080 --> 0:11:12.960
<v Speaker 5>if you're losing three weeks out, you got to do

0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 5>something to change a narrative. Here's what James Carvell says.

0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 5>The problem is with her doing an interview.

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 4>I'm not a.

0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Fan of doing interviews with different people because the problem

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.200
<v Speaker 2>to interview is you have to answer the question that

0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:26.719
<v Speaker 2>the interviewer asks you.

0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.520
<v Speaker 5>And that's going to be different than having Stephanie Rule

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:39.760
<v Speaker 5>on MSNBC ask you questions, or Howard Stern or any

0:11:39.800 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 5>of the other fawning people who have already stated that

0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.760
<v Speaker 5>their only goal is to make sure Trump loses.

0:11:45.960 --> 0:11:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, Brett Baar is a very fair.

0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.000
<v Speaker 5>Journalist, but he's going to ask the questions you've been

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.719
<v Speaker 5>wanting asked, and then he's going to follow up if

0:11:54.720 --> 0:11:57.199
<v Speaker 5>she doesn't answer them, and they're not going to edit

0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 5>out her answers.

0:11:58.920 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 2>That's just a fact.

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:02.160
<v Speaker 5>And also I don't this is not confirmed yet, but

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:03.920
<v Speaker 5>the rumor is is she going to go on Joe

0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:06.680
<v Speaker 5>Rogan next week to try to reach young men.

0:12:07.720 --> 0:12:12.439
<v Speaker 7>I like to attach a level of certainty to my opinions.

0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:19.440
<v Speaker 7>Sometimes I have no confidence confidence whatsoever in answering the question.

0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:22.800
<v Speaker 7>Why is she going on Brett Behar I guess it's

0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 7>to woo the never Trump Republican crowd over to her side.

0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 5>If she can get them, that has to be it.

0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:35.719
<v Speaker 5>She's terrible, though, it's going to go very poorly. That's

0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:39.800
<v Speaker 5>a decent question. Uh why is she going on Brett Bear?

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:47.079
<v Speaker 5>Because they must feel like too much of the country

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:49.280
<v Speaker 5>feels like she hasn't done a tough interview yet, even

0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:50.640
<v Speaker 5>after sixty minutes.

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:52.720
<v Speaker 2>And their friendly media blitz failed.

0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:57.640
<v Speaker 5>So they must have some polling or belief that a

0:12:57.679 --> 0:13:00.560
<v Speaker 5>big chunk of undecided voters thinks she hasn't done a

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 5>real interview yet.

0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:03.560
<v Speaker 2>That's got to be it, right, I guess which is

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:06.200
<v Speaker 2>pulling to that? Which is fairly accurate? Boy, is she

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:07.040
<v Speaker 2>rolling the dice?

0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:07.360
<v Speaker 7>Oh?

0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:10.000
<v Speaker 5>I'd say I think the chance of her coming out

0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:11.559
<v Speaker 5>of this unscathed are zero.

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, pretty much. As an idiot has.

0:13:15.720 --> 0:13:19.959
<v Speaker 5>Previously discussed, numb nut any any thoughts text line four

0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:21.840
<v Speaker 5>one five two nine five k FTC.

0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.200
<v Speaker 7>In Brazil, a video has gone viral of a monkey

0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:33.080
<v Speaker 7>drinking beer. Beer drinking monkey is so popular he's been

0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:36.000
<v Speaker 7>immortalized in the new children's book We're Worried About You George.

0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:41.400
<v Speaker 5>Wow, we've gathered all your monkey friends to talk to

0:13:41.440 --> 0:13:42.040
<v Speaker 5>you about.

0:13:41.840 --> 0:13:45.959
<v Speaker 2>Something, Jim Chim, would you like to begin? Wow?

0:13:47.520 --> 0:13:49.760
<v Speaker 7>Do you know who David Berg is? Or is it Burge?

0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:52.360
<v Speaker 7>I don't actually know, he writes the Iowa Hawk blog.

0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:56.960
<v Speaker 7>He is a brilliant and hilarious commentator, and he's posted

0:13:56.960 --> 0:14:00.319
<v Speaker 7>this video that appears to be of Russell brand End,

0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 7>the actor comedian long Hair who's remade himself as a

0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 7>right wing Christian influencer.

0:14:08.200 --> 0:14:09.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's way out there.

0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.000
<v Speaker 7>He's now selling a magic amulet that protects you from

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:16.679
<v Speaker 7>Wi Fi signals and other evil energies only two hundred

0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 7>and thirty nine dollars in ninety nine cents per amulet.

0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 5>Oh boy, what I need to know what that looks like?

0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:23.320
<v Speaker 5>So if I see one wearing them, I know what

0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:23.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm dealing with.

0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it's not a real close up there. It's on

0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:30.880
<v Speaker 7>that video, but I don't I think it's it's one

0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.200
<v Speaker 7>of those many things he wears around his neck. But anyway,

0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:37.280
<v Speaker 7>David Berg's comment is we truly live in a golden

0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 7>age for rape e con artists. It used to be

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:43.120
<v Speaker 7>that you began your career as a Christian snake oil

0:14:43.160 --> 0:14:46.640
<v Speaker 7>salesman until rape accusations ended it. Now the system is

0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:49.560
<v Speaker 7>to wait until the rape accusations come out. Then you

0:14:49.640 --> 0:14:53.240
<v Speaker 7>begin your career as a Christian quote quote unquote snake

0:14:53.240 --> 0:14:57.280
<v Speaker 7>oil salesman. We truly live in a golden age for

0:14:57.440 --> 0:15:05.239
<v Speaker 7>rape e con artists allegedly allegedly rape.

0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:07.000
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.720
<v Speaker 5>Okay, I didn't want to say another thing about the election,

0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:11.840
<v Speaker 5>but I just came across this.

0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Can't stop himself, folks.

0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 5>So Trump is doing a Bloomberg interview today. I don't

0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 5>know why Mark Alpern and his newsletter considers that a

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:31.080
<v Speaker 5>big deal. They're pretty left. He's done a lot. Practically

0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.440
<v Speaker 5>every interview he does is somebody left me.

0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.040
<v Speaker 2>Oh oh yeah, yeah. The whole media is so anyway.

0:15:36.080 --> 0:15:41.360
<v Speaker 2>This is what Halpern wrote in his newsletter today.

0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:47.000
<v Speaker 5>Here's my spidery sense view from Trump's interview with Bloomberg

0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 5>today to Harris's appearance on Fox News tomorrow. By sundown

0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.280
<v Speaker 5>Wednesday night, we are going to know who will win

0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 5>the election.

0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:57.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, wow.

0:15:57.920 --> 0:16:03.800
<v Speaker 5>I gotta believe that's mostly based on Kamala's like if

0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:07.000
<v Speaker 5>she like, if she clears the bar, she won't. If

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:10.560
<v Speaker 5>she clears the bar, she won't. I can't stop saying

0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:13.880
<v Speaker 5>she won't. If she clears the bar and Trump really fails,

0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:24.040
<v Speaker 5>she won't, Well, Trump will be Trump. Well exactly what

0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:25.600
<v Speaker 5>would him failing in an interview?

0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Look like?

0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:31.920
<v Speaker 7>He might ramble some or promise of policy that won't happen,

0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.800
<v Speaker 7>or or start talking about how she's not really black

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:36.800
<v Speaker 7>like he did with that one women's group or whatever

0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:40.920
<v Speaker 7>I want, right, But he always survives those things, right anyway?

0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:43.720
<v Speaker 7>So yeah, I think it's all about Kamala's interview. I

0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:48.600
<v Speaker 7>think it is too with Bratt. Oh, I feel like

0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:51.400
<v Speaker 7>somebody told me, Hey, there's going to be a car

0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:55.080
<v Speaker 7>wreck right here in five minutes, and I'm just full

0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 7>of excitement and foreboding.

0:16:56.920 --> 0:16:58.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to see a car wreck.

0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:00.080
<v Speaker 5>I stop and look at them like everybody else, but

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:01.280
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to see it happen.

0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:04.399
<v Speaker 7>Oh, so you would leave, You wouldn't stand there and think, wow,

0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:05.280
<v Speaker 7>this is crazy.

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.040
<v Speaker 2>I think I would leave. This is going to be

0:17:08.080 --> 0:17:08.400
<v Speaker 2>all right?

0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:08.560
<v Speaker 4>Then?

0:17:08.600 --> 0:17:09.160
<v Speaker 2>A train wreck?

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:09.320
<v Speaker 7>Now?

0:17:09.400 --> 0:17:15.800
<v Speaker 2>What a train wreck? Armstrong and Getty.

0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.679
<v Speaker 9>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nettan Yah, who told President Biden

0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:24.159
<v Speaker 9>in a phone call that Israel will strike Iranian military

0:17:24.200 --> 0:17:28.560
<v Speaker 9>sites instead of oil or nuclear locations. That information signals

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:30.399
<v Speaker 9>net and Yah who might be willing to avoid a

0:17:30.440 --> 0:17:33.520
<v Speaker 9>greater escalation with Iran, at least for now, and he's

0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.439
<v Speaker 9>aware that any type of strike against Iran could actually

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:40.320
<v Speaker 9>impact our US election. Net and Yahoo reportedly saying, we

0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:42.960
<v Speaker 9>will listen to the opinions of the United States, but

0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:46.240
<v Speaker 9>we will make our final decisions based on our national interest.

0:17:46.440 --> 0:17:48.000
<v Speaker 2>So that was yesterday and the story is today.

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:49.600
<v Speaker 5>It's going to happen in the next couple of weeks,

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.520
<v Speaker 5>definitely before the election, so we'll keep our eye on that.

0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.520
<v Speaker 7>I'll bit BB on a daily basis, asks his advisors,

0:17:56.440 --> 0:18:00.800
<v Speaker 7>remind me when the Spineless Mummy leaves office again. On

0:18:00.840 --> 0:18:02.800
<v Speaker 7>a totally different topic, much closer to home.

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 2>It's funny.

0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:08.520
<v Speaker 7>I've wanted to bring this up for a while, the

0:18:08.560 --> 0:18:15.480
<v Speaker 7>real crisis in America's government schools, and I don't want

0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.840
<v Speaker 7>to be the cliched everything is going to hell all

0:18:17.880 --> 0:18:21.840
<v Speaker 7>the time person like me. That's what I am, because

0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:25.280
<v Speaker 7>that's my brand, because we already have one of them. No,

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:29.159
<v Speaker 7>but I was thinking about it, and it goes back

0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:32.000
<v Speaker 7>to our discussion of the natural state of things is

0:18:32.119 --> 0:18:38.400
<v Speaker 7>chaos and poverty and violence, and if you have a civilization.

0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:45.600
<v Speaker 7>The challenge of preserving that civilization never ends and everything

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:50.560
<v Speaker 7>isn't necessarily going to hell, but everything will go to

0:18:50.840 --> 0:18:52.760
<v Speaker 7>hell if you don't stop it.

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Going to hell needs to be maintained.

0:18:55.440 --> 0:19:00.359
<v Speaker 7>Yes, in short, so, anyway, I think one of the things,

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.880
<v Speaker 7>in another principle, before we get into specific said, you've

0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:08.760
<v Speaker 7>quoted George will As saying one of the essential elements

0:19:08.760 --> 0:19:11.600
<v Speaker 7>of being a conservative is you have to deal with reality,

0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:17.040
<v Speaker 7>recognize what is right. You can't be a utopian, unicorn

0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:21.920
<v Speaker 7>riding wisher of fond wishes and call yourself a conservative.

0:19:22.440 --> 0:19:23.880
<v Speaker 2>It's just it doesn't fit.

0:19:24.520 --> 0:19:27.719
<v Speaker 7>So anyway, I think we have an enormous crisis with

0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:33.760
<v Speaker 7>America's government schools right now. I don't think there's any

0:19:33.800 --> 0:19:37.520
<v Speaker 7>doubt of that. I think it would be a four

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:42.520
<v Speaker 7>alarm panic going on in America right now if it

0:19:42.560 --> 0:19:45.639
<v Speaker 7>were not for two things. Number One, a lot of

0:19:45.680 --> 0:19:48.479
<v Speaker 7>parents think schools are still what they went to, what

0:19:48.560 --> 0:19:51.240
<v Speaker 7>they grew up with, and the distraction of the golden

0:19:51.280 --> 0:19:54.840
<v Speaker 7>Bachelor and the golden Bachelor. And there are three things

0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.520
<v Speaker 7>now that I think about it, and the other one

0:19:58.640 --> 0:20:04.320
<v Speaker 7>is that there are some schools. It's actually four things,

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:06.800
<v Speaker 7>including the Golden Bachelor. There are some schools that are

0:20:06.800 --> 0:20:10.240
<v Speaker 7>still doing a good job. They're fighting hard, they're in

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:15.040
<v Speaker 7>conservative areas, the teachers and administrators are not fully woke,

0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:17.560
<v Speaker 7>so people think our schools seem to be fine, and

0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:22.440
<v Speaker 7>maybe they are. But the fourth thing, obviously, is that

0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:26.800
<v Speaker 7>the dominant media do not talk about this much at

0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:31.399
<v Speaker 7>all because it's extremely uncomfortable for them because they are progressive,

0:20:31.520 --> 0:20:34.840
<v Speaker 7>they are woke, they are pro union, and.

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:37.080
<v Speaker 5>The heavyweights have their kids in private schools, so they

0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:37.840
<v Speaker 5>wouldn't know anyway.

0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:38.520
<v Speaker 2>That's a good point.

0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.320
<v Speaker 7>That is a good point in the middleweights too, anyway.

0:20:42.400 --> 0:20:45.919
<v Speaker 7>So a couple of exhibits in the prosecution of America's

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:49.720
<v Speaker 7>government schools. One that you've probably heard similar fare before,

0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:53.160
<v Speaker 7>but this is a bit of an update. Between two thousand,

0:20:53.320 --> 0:20:57.919
<v Speaker 7>year two thousand and the year twenty twenty two, the

0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:02.800
<v Speaker 7>number of students and as schools rose by five percent.

0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Five percent.

0:21:04.920 --> 0:21:11.200
<v Speaker 7>The number of teachers rose by ten percent, which is interesting. Yeah,

0:21:11.320 --> 0:21:16.320
<v Speaker 7>the number of principles and assistant principles rose by forty percent.

0:21:16.760 --> 0:21:21.320
<v Speaker 2>Whoa what who who had their kid in school.

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:23.399
<v Speaker 5>In the year two thousand thought, you know this is

0:21:23.440 --> 0:21:25.720
<v Speaker 5>going well, it'd be a lot better though, if we

0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 5>had like eight more principles.

0:21:27.320 --> 0:21:29.760
<v Speaker 2>Yes, who the hell fought that? Right?

0:21:30.520 --> 0:21:33.480
<v Speaker 7>And then again keeping in mind that the increase in

0:21:33.520 --> 0:21:37.240
<v Speaker 7>students is five percent, the increase in administrative staff is

0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 7>ninety five percent.

0:21:38.960 --> 0:21:39.399
<v Speaker 3>There you go.

0:21:39.440 --> 0:21:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Same is with universities. Yeah.

0:21:41.240 --> 0:21:43.760
<v Speaker 7>Now, some we've talked about this in the past, and

0:21:43.800 --> 0:21:48.040
<v Speaker 7>some folks have said, yeah, the uh the government mandates

0:21:49.200 --> 0:21:53.400
<v Speaker 7>on schools is so cumbersome. Now the federal and state mandates.

0:21:53.680 --> 0:21:56.960
<v Speaker 7>You have to have compliance staff, Oh my god, that

0:21:57.080 --> 0:22:02.040
<v Speaker 7>spend their whole days issuing reports and filling out forms

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:04.560
<v Speaker 7>that say you've conformed to all of the demands of

0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:05.720
<v Speaker 7>the centralized government.

0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:08.400
<v Speaker 5>There are so many forms. So I have been through

0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:10.960
<v Speaker 5>a lot of this and super nice people. I'm not

0:22:11.000 --> 0:22:14.200
<v Speaker 5>complaining about any of these people. But I was one

0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:17.080
<v Speaker 5>meeting that had like fifteen people in it about my son,

0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:20.520
<v Speaker 5>and they kept using the word rubric. Well, this, this

0:22:20.560 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 5>fits the rubric, and it doesn't fit the rubric. And

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:24.920
<v Speaker 5>we've looked at the rubric everythink, like I said, I

0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.360
<v Speaker 5>think I said out loud, I think I cannot hear

0:22:28.400 --> 0:22:31.760
<v Speaker 5>the word rubric another time. We gotta I don't even

0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:34.520
<v Speaker 5>know what that is. We gotta stop saying the word rubric.

0:22:34.560 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 2>Please. If we do nothing else here, it's refrain from

0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:39.280
<v Speaker 2>singing rubric.

0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:42.920
<v Speaker 5>So it was a paperwork thing. It was just all

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:45.159
<v Speaker 5>kinds of different layers of paperwork.

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:48.760
<v Speaker 7>So you have this from Jason Riley, who's a great

0:22:48.760 --> 0:22:52.160
<v Speaker 7>writer and thinker. Biden and Harris worked to crush school competition.

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.600
<v Speaker 7>He is more opposed to charter schools than any president

0:22:56.119 --> 0:22:57.919
<v Speaker 7>in recent history.

0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:00.240
<v Speaker 2>And Kamala has spoken in.

0:23:01.760 --> 0:23:06.280
<v Speaker 7>Enthusiastically about how wonderful teachers unions are and that everything

0:23:06.760 --> 0:23:09.439
<v Speaker 7>that tends to take money and influence away from the

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:14.520
<v Speaker 7>teachers unions is an attack on public schools. That would

0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:17.880
<v Speaker 7>be bad enough were it not for the numbers involved. Again,

0:23:17.960 --> 0:23:21.200
<v Speaker 7>this is fairly Oh you know, the National Review actually

0:23:21.200 --> 0:23:23.520
<v Speaker 7>touched on the fact that the left is now trying

0:23:23.560 --> 0:23:27.120
<v Speaker 7>to promote or I'm sorry to indict school choice movements

0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:31.440
<v Speaker 7>as an effort a secret plot to promote Christian nationalism.

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:33.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, that's one of the attacks.

0:23:33.320 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 5>I assume you're about to get to some of the

0:23:35.400 --> 0:23:38.520
<v Speaker 5>results we're getting out of the schools. Uh yeah, okay,

0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 5>But even without that, even if it had maintained what

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:47.640
<v Speaker 5>public schools were from the past, why would you need

0:23:47.680 --> 0:23:52.000
<v Speaker 5>to increase administration by ninety percent and think that that

0:23:52.080 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 5>was a good idea even if we had maintained the

0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:59.520
<v Speaker 5>same quality. It's like, well, why are we spending all

0:23:59.520 --> 0:24:01.080
<v Speaker 5>this money? Was working fine before?

0:24:01.480 --> 0:24:04.400
<v Speaker 7>Right, Yeah, And I'm looking at the clock. I think

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:06.399
<v Speaker 7>maybe we take a break and then come back with

0:24:06.440 --> 0:24:08.639
<v Speaker 7>some of the results stuff. But the other thing I

0:24:08.640 --> 0:24:11.920
<v Speaker 7>wanted to get to, and we have a lot of

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:16.199
<v Speaker 7>great teachers who listen to the show and communicate to

0:24:16.320 --> 0:24:19.080
<v Speaker 7>us and blow the whistle on some of the more

0:24:19.160 --> 0:24:23.280
<v Speaker 7>insane progressive things that are taking the place of math

0:24:23.320 --> 0:24:25.879
<v Speaker 7>and reading in our schools. The genderbread person, which I'm

0:24:25.880 --> 0:24:29.240
<v Speaker 7>always hammering about because you know, California is a particular

0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:31.479
<v Speaker 7>interest because that's where the show is based, and the

0:24:31.520 --> 0:24:35.920
<v Speaker 7>perversity in California schools is just it's heartbreaking. But anyway,

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 7>Wall Street Journal with a big piece teachers are burning

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:44.760
<v Speaker 7>out on the job, and the subhead is student behavior

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:47.320
<v Speaker 7>and mediocre pay are taking their toll.

0:24:47.720 --> 0:24:50.440
<v Speaker 2>From lefty media. It's always about the pay.

0:24:50.480 --> 0:24:55.520
<v Speaker 7>It's always about money, and there's such a lack of

0:24:55.880 --> 0:25:00.639
<v Speaker 7>understanding and wisdom. Maybe it's that progressives so fill the

0:25:00.680 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 7>newsrooms that that's the only point of view, and a

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:04.840
<v Speaker 7>lot of journalists are young these days because it doesn't

0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:05.800
<v Speaker 7>pay very well.

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 2>But there is such a lack of wisdom.

0:25:10.720 --> 0:25:17.399
<v Speaker 7>If I have a fun, rewarding, joyful job and I

0:25:17.480 --> 0:25:21.840
<v Speaker 7>get the summer off, I would accept that rate of

0:25:21.920 --> 0:25:28.959
<v Speaker 7>pay at X. If I have a miserable, discouraging, heartbreaking job,

0:25:30.119 --> 0:25:31.000
<v Speaker 7>I'm not gonna.

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:33.159
<v Speaker 2>Work for that low level pay. I'm gonna want a

0:25:33.160 --> 0:25:33.600
<v Speaker 2>hell of a.

0:25:33.520 --> 0:25:38.080
<v Speaker 7>Lot more to keep showing up very good point, student

0:25:38.160 --> 0:25:41.520
<v Speaker 7>behavior problems, cell phones in class, anemic pay that's not

0:25:41.760 --> 0:25:45.760
<v Speaker 7>really true, and artificial intelligence powered cheating are taking their

0:25:45.760 --> 0:25:48.439
<v Speaker 7>toll on America's roughly three point eight million teachers on

0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:54.719
<v Speaker 7>top of the bruising pandemic years. The sheriff teachers who

0:25:54.800 --> 0:25:57.879
<v Speaker 7>say the stress and disappointments of the job are worth

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:02.760
<v Speaker 7>it has fallen twenty one on points in the last

0:26:02.800 --> 0:26:03.520
<v Speaker 7>couple of years.

0:26:04.720 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 2>Don't doubt that.

0:26:05.480 --> 0:26:08.240
<v Speaker 7>As recently as twenty eighteen, over seventy percent of teachers

0:26:08.240 --> 0:26:10.640
<v Speaker 7>said the stress was worth it. Now it's forty two.

0:26:12.480 --> 0:26:15.720
<v Speaker 5>In surveys and interviews, teachers are most any any place

0:26:15.760 --> 0:26:20.440
<v Speaker 5>you work, as they is, they layered in more administration

0:26:21.000 --> 0:26:23.720
<v Speaker 5>to wherever you work. Did that make things more enjoyable

0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:26.480
<v Speaker 5>or less enjoyable where you work well?

0:26:26.520 --> 0:26:29.040
<v Speaker 7>And we're going to get to the you know, it's

0:26:29.040 --> 0:26:34.240
<v Speaker 7>more than frustration, it's being physically at risk. In surveys

0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:37.600
<v Speaker 7>and interviews, teachers are most often pointing to a startling

0:26:37.680 --> 0:26:41.760
<v Speaker 7>rise in students' mental health challenges and misbehavior as the

0:26:41.760 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 7>biggest drivers of burnout. In the Rand Corporation survey, student

0:26:45.640 --> 0:26:48.280
<v Speaker 7>behavior was the top source of teachers job stress.

0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:50.320
<v Speaker 5>A lot of that, I guarantee you is that whole

0:26:50.359 --> 0:26:53.160
<v Speaker 5>restorative justice thing where they have no ability to deal

0:26:53.200 --> 0:26:53.480
<v Speaker 5>with it.

0:26:53.680 --> 0:26:54.679
<v Speaker 2>That's the next sentence.

0:26:54.720 --> 0:26:57.520
<v Speaker 7>You're absolutely right to quote a high school math teacher

0:26:58.240 --> 0:27:01.520
<v Speaker 7>who says he saw student behavior to interiorate seriously, let

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:06.600
<v Speaker 7>yet his school drew more lenient in administrating administering consequences.

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:11.720
<v Speaker 5>How is the country not aware of what a failure

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:13.359
<v Speaker 5>this restorative justice thing is?

0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:15.399
<v Speaker 7>I know, because nobody talks about it in the media.

0:27:15.920 --> 0:27:20.200
<v Speaker 7>And this poor son of a gun, so he's dealing

0:27:20.280 --> 0:27:23.080
<v Speaker 7>with all this frustration and then his district, Kansas City

0:27:23.119 --> 0:27:26.640
<v Speaker 7>Public Schools, shout out Kansas City. The great cities were

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:29.640
<v Speaker 7>a privileged to be on. They rolled out a new

0:27:29.640 --> 0:27:33.280
<v Speaker 7>policy last year, teachers could not give students a zero

0:27:33.440 --> 0:27:35.919
<v Speaker 7>for an assignment even if they didn't turn it in

0:27:36.200 --> 0:27:38.160
<v Speaker 7>and didn't make any effort to.

0:27:38.480 --> 0:27:41.600
<v Speaker 2>It is to laugh. I mean, that is so funny.

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:46.480
<v Speaker 2>It is funny, It is hilarious. So so say that again.

0:27:46.760 --> 0:27:50.280
<v Speaker 7>You can't get a zero even if even if you say,

0:27:50.480 --> 0:27:54.119
<v Speaker 7>not only did I not do the assignment, mister Gerald,

0:27:55.040 --> 0:27:58.720
<v Speaker 7>you should shove it up your arms. He cannot give

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:01.400
<v Speaker 7>you a zero for that assign You've got to get

0:28:01.480 --> 0:28:06.480
<v Speaker 7>at least like c C one of the things I

0:28:06.520 --> 0:28:08.440
<v Speaker 7>got when I got into teaching. My one thing was

0:28:08.480 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 7>about learning and love of learning, he says. In the end,

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.000
<v Speaker 7>it was less about the learning and more about babysitting.

0:28:13.080 --> 0:28:15.959
<v Speaker 7>He left teaching this summer. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. And

0:28:16.000 --> 0:28:18.359
<v Speaker 7>they go into a great deal of detail, with many,

0:28:18.400 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 7>many examples of classroom stress and violence, lack of consequences

0:28:23.760 --> 0:28:25.640
<v Speaker 7>for bad behavior, restorative justice.

0:28:25.680 --> 0:28:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean, look it up, well, don't look it up, because.

0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:29.959
<v Speaker 5>Their description of it won't be accurate as to what

0:28:30.000 --> 0:28:30.800
<v Speaker 5>actually happens.

0:28:31.359 --> 0:28:31.760
<v Speaker 2>It is.

0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:35.840
<v Speaker 5>It is the recipe for no discipline and a bullies paradise.

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:37.000
<v Speaker 2>It is, it is.

0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:39.880
<v Speaker 7>It is tragic for the children and the teachers and

0:28:39.920 --> 0:28:42.680
<v Speaker 7>it's part of Oh yeah, absolutely true, and it's one

0:28:42.760 --> 0:28:46.520
<v Speaker 7>hundred percent part of the neo Marxist We're going to

0:28:46.600 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 7>break the system. We're going to call everything racist until

0:28:50.400 --> 0:28:52.840
<v Speaker 7>we control it. And they do control the schools to

0:28:52.880 --> 0:28:55.680
<v Speaker 7>a large extent now, and anybody who stands in our

0:28:55.720 --> 0:28:58.360
<v Speaker 7>way will call them a racist until we have imposed

0:28:58.440 --> 0:29:01.800
<v Speaker 7>our philosophy on what ever institution you're talking about, from

0:29:01.840 --> 0:29:05.360
<v Speaker 7>public schools to corporations, to the United States government to

0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 7>the military for instance.

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:09.880
<v Speaker 5>By the way, in Kansas City, we're on FM, so

0:29:09.960 --> 0:29:11.680
<v Speaker 5>people can really enjoy our pipes.

0:29:13.000 --> 0:29:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I have nothing to add to that, you know, and

0:29:18.440 --> 0:29:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I'm looking at the clock.

0:29:21.480 --> 0:29:25.959
<v Speaker 7>I came across another account a number of school districts

0:29:25.960 --> 0:29:30.800
<v Speaker 7>in oh it was Virginia and one other state in

0:29:30.920 --> 0:29:37.479
<v Speaker 7>which far fewer than half of the children were at

0:29:37.560 --> 0:29:42.239
<v Speaker 7>the minimum level in English, and it was less than

0:29:42.280 --> 0:29:45.800
<v Speaker 7>a third in district after district were not at the

0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 7>minimum level for math. We sometimes talk about proficiency. This

0:29:52.200 --> 0:29:56.680
<v Speaker 7>was the well the minimum and the vast majority kids

0:29:56.680 --> 0:29:59.640
<v Speaker 7>are nowhere near it. And if you say, I got

0:29:59.680 --> 0:30:03.560
<v Speaker 7>to get my kid out of this school. The forces

0:30:03.600 --> 0:30:06.680
<v Speaker 7>of the left from Joe Biden Kamala Harrison down will

0:30:06.680 --> 0:30:11.240
<v Speaker 7>tell you you're a rasist for some reason. B you're

0:30:11.320 --> 0:30:15.520
<v Speaker 7>attacking public schools trying to take resources away.

0:30:15.600 --> 0:30:18.680
<v Speaker 2>You're a bad person and a bad parent. It's crazier

0:30:18.720 --> 0:30:21.440
<v Speaker 2>that this isn't a bigger issue. It is. It absolutely is.

0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:24.840
<v Speaker 5>Any thoughts on this text line four one five two

0:30:24.920 --> 0:30:25.920
<v Speaker 5>nine five KFTC.

0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:31.760
<v Speaker 7>It is breaking news, breaking news on the story we

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:35.360
<v Speaker 7>were talking about just now off the air. It looks

0:30:35.400 --> 0:30:39.160
<v Speaker 7>like a fifth university has forfeited a match against San

0:30:39.240 --> 0:30:42.800
<v Speaker 7>Jose State San Jose State University because they have a

0:30:42.880 --> 0:30:44.160
<v Speaker 7>dude on the team.

0:30:43.920 --> 0:30:46.920
<v Speaker 5>So they continue to be nine and zero San Jose.

0:30:47.320 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 5>San Jose State's women's volleyball team undefeated with a dude

0:30:50.480 --> 0:30:51.120
<v Speaker 5>on the team.

0:30:51.000 --> 0:30:51.479
<v Speaker 2>Nine and zero.

0:30:52.360 --> 0:30:54.040
<v Speaker 5>They haven't been able to play any more games because

0:30:54.080 --> 0:30:56.440
<v Speaker 5>five straight teams have forfeited, saying we're not playing against

0:30:56.480 --> 0:30:59.040
<v Speaker 5>the dude who can spike the ball at eighty miles

0:30:59.040 --> 0:31:03.640
<v Speaker 5>an hour right as a safety concern, which is a true,

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:05.719
<v Speaker 5>but I also feel like a bit of a dodge

0:31:05.760 --> 0:31:08.440
<v Speaker 5>in that you shouldn't allow it anyway.

0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:11.959
<v Speaker 7>Well, yeah, I really don't feel like I need to

0:31:12.480 --> 0:31:15.640
<v Speaker 7>come up with a second argument when my first argument

0:31:15.800 --> 0:31:19.280
<v Speaker 7>is that's a dude, since we're.

0:31:19.120 --> 0:31:20.440
<v Speaker 2>Talking about women's sports.

0:31:20.680 --> 0:31:23.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and I will not use the term transgender woman

0:31:23.520 --> 0:31:25.040
<v Speaker 7>when we're discussing something like that.

0:31:25.040 --> 0:31:27.760
<v Speaker 2>That's ridiculous. That is not a woman. That is a man.

0:31:28.040 --> 0:31:31.080
<v Speaker 7>If you're an effeminate man, a gay man, a man

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:33.760
<v Speaker 7>in a dress, whatever, that's fine.

0:31:33.840 --> 0:31:36.480
<v Speaker 2>You do you brother, but I'm not calling you a woman.

0:31:37.280 --> 0:31:40.320
<v Speaker 7>I will not be put forced to my knees in

0:31:40.400 --> 0:31:44.480
<v Speaker 7>a Maoist struggle section session and forced to say something

0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:45.680
<v Speaker 7>I know not to be true.

0:31:46.080 --> 0:31:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Sir, you fight that one. I'll fight Columbus day, all right.

0:31:49.880 --> 0:31:57.840
<v Speaker 5>So if all it was was it's unfair competition would

0:31:57.880 --> 0:32:01.680
<v Speaker 5>be reason enough, or took a slot from a girl

0:32:01.920 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 5>who could have been on the volleyball team, that would

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:04.200
<v Speaker 5>be enough.

0:32:04.360 --> 0:32:05.719
<v Speaker 2>Yes, lots of reasons.

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:07.480
<v Speaker 5>You don't even need the eighty mile an hour spike,

0:32:07.680 --> 0:32:09.720
<v Speaker 5>but that is included. And they're they're worried about people

0:32:09.720 --> 0:32:12.280
<v Speaker 5>getting hurt, and so now there's an actual lawsuit.

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:13.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:18.640
<v Speaker 7>Current teammate of Blair Fleming, a trans identifying male on

0:32:18.680 --> 0:32:22.280
<v Speaker 7>the undefeated San Jose State women's best volleyball team, pretty

0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:25.400
<v Speaker 7>good looking as a woman. Oh lord, has joined more

0:32:25.440 --> 0:32:28.200
<v Speaker 7>than a dozen other female athletes and suing the NCAA

0:32:28.320 --> 0:32:29.760
<v Speaker 7>for Title nine violations.

0:32:29.880 --> 0:32:33.840
<v Speaker 5>You gals go get them. So this might be the one. Huh,

0:32:33.920 --> 0:32:36.560
<v Speaker 5>this might be the nail in the coffin for this

0:32:36.720 --> 0:32:39.680
<v Speaker 5>going on across Penn State. Didn't have the courage or

0:32:39.720 --> 0:32:42.200
<v Speaker 5>the team's playing them, or it was too new, they

0:32:42.240 --> 0:32:44.040
<v Speaker 5>didn't know how to handle it. They should have done

0:32:44.040 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 5>the same thing with Leah Thomas when she was breaking

0:32:47.240 --> 0:32:50.880
<v Speaker 5>record after record after record swimming as a woman at

0:32:50.920 --> 0:32:51.440
<v Speaker 5>Penn State.

0:32:51.520 --> 0:32:55.760
<v Speaker 2>I think was up Pennsylvania. It doesn't matter. I think

0:32:55.760 --> 0:32:57.640
<v Speaker 2>you're right. University of Pennsylvan.

0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:01.040
<v Speaker 5>You're sorry Penn State blasphemed you and even after you're

0:33:01.520 --> 0:33:03.360
<v Speaker 5>stunning lost to USC, you don't need this.

0:33:03.480 --> 0:33:08.160
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Penn State's child rape, not transgender swimmers.

0:33:08.240 --> 0:33:11.640
<v Speaker 5>Jerry right, that's a long time now. I won't feel

0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:12.720
<v Speaker 5>as bad about saying bad things.

0:33:12.720 --> 0:33:15.240
<v Speaker 2>That was a long time ago. Yeah. Anyway, where was I?

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:15.920
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:33:16.000 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 7>The Supreme Court this session is going to be taking

0:33:19.400 --> 0:33:24.200
<v Speaker 7>a look at the transgender sports thing, I believe, and

0:33:24.240 --> 0:33:26.840
<v Speaker 7>if they don't rule in the correct same way, I.

0:33:26.800 --> 0:33:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Will be moving to Uruguay or Paraguay, never remember which.

0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:34.960
<v Speaker 5>This is gonna come to a hard stop, and we're

0:33:34.960 --> 0:33:40.320
<v Speaker 5>gonna look back on it years from now. Like I

0:33:40.360 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 5>was going to try to come up with a good

0:33:41.560 --> 0:33:43.920
<v Speaker 5>example of other crazy things that have happened in the

0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:46.240
<v Speaker 5>past that you just can't even believe happened. I guess,

0:33:46.360 --> 0:33:49.480
<v Speaker 5>like when they were doing the medical experiments on black

0:33:49.560 --> 0:33:51.960
<v Speaker 5>men giving them syphilis or whatever. We'll look back on

0:33:52.000 --> 0:33:54.480
<v Speaker 5>the air and think, can you believe that happened? Right,

0:33:54.680 --> 0:33:57.280
<v Speaker 5>We'll look back on the air where men were dominating

0:33:57.320 --> 0:33:59.600
<v Speaker 5>women's sports and they are allowing it to happen.

0:34:00.040 --> 0:34:03.480
<v Speaker 7>And they'd ask Grandpa, why did they let the men play? Well,

0:34:04.200 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 7>they said they were women, and you couldn't tell they

0:34:07.360 --> 0:34:09.680
<v Speaker 7>were men. Oh no, everybody knew they were men. But

0:34:09.800 --> 0:34:13.000
<v Speaker 7>because they said they were women, some people said that

0:34:13.120 --> 0:34:17.840
<v Speaker 7>made them women. And your grandchild or you know, adult

0:34:17.920 --> 0:34:22.160
<v Speaker 7>grandchild or whatever would look at you like I'm seriously

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:25.319
<v Speaker 7>missing something here and I don't know what.

0:34:25.640 --> 0:34:26.080
<v Speaker 2>How did they.

0:34:26.040 --> 0:34:28.279
<v Speaker 5>Handle the locker room, Well, they just walked around with

0:34:28.360 --> 0:34:31.000
<v Speaker 5>their crankout in front of the other girls. They made

0:34:31.000 --> 0:34:35.279
<v Speaker 5>the girls hide elsewhere to change so the man could

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 5>change in comfort. And Grandpa, this is the same left

0:34:39.760 --> 0:34:43.000
<v Speaker 5>that screamed that they were for women's rights. Yeah, I know,

0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:44.440
<v Speaker 5>it was effing crazy.

0:34:48.520 --> 0:34:53.080
<v Speaker 7>Please don't allow yourself to be cowed by the viciousness

0:34:53.080 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 7>and enthusiasm of the woke left. They are a very

0:34:56.320 --> 0:34:59.719
<v Speaker 7>very small minority of people, but they're such vicious bullies.

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:02.320
<v Speaker 7>They've gotten their way, especially in education.

0:35:02.960 --> 0:35:07.320
<v Speaker 2>That's Joe Getty. He he not he he isn't laughing.

0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:10.120
