Forty eight hours before, they continued to 5 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 2: call Donald Trump a threat lessen forty eight hours after 6 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 2: someone tried to kill him, they're now back to the 7 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 2: rhetoric of we hate him, you should hate him, he's 8 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:23,720 Speaker 2: a threat to our country. 9 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 3: Look, Democrats, sadly, are truly unhinged. 10 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 4: We saw just a couple of days ago. 11 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 3: The second assassination tempt on President Donald Trump in sixty 12 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 3: four days, and yet just a couple of days later, 13 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 3: the Democrats are not saying we need to protect Donald Trump. 14 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 3: Joe Biden is not saying we need to provide a 15 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 3: full presidential detail to protect him. Kamala Harris is not 16 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 3: saying protect Donald Trump. Instead, they're doubling down on He's terrible, 17 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 3: He's evil, He's a threat. It is disgraceful. Is there 18 00:00:54,920 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 3: no decency? I'm reminded of the McCarthy hearings. Have you 19 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 3: no decency? 20 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 5: Sir? 21 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 3: At long last? Have you no decency?

Instead their hate dominates them. We're also 25 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 3: going to talk about an incredible story, a remarkable story 26 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 3: where Israel detonated pagers that had been distributed to Hesbela 27 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 3: terrorists and Hesbela terrists ended up being wounded and even 28 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 3: in some cases killed.

This first story is just straight up shocking 71 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: to me. The White House was being asked some questions 72 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: today and right away, what did the White House do? 73 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: They went back to their old ways, Jean Pierre calling 74 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump a threat to democracy. Now, the good news 75 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 2: is there was at least one person that was there 76 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: willing to ask the question, and that was Fox News 77 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: saying this. 78 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 6: Two days since somebody allegedly tried to kill Donald Trump again, 79 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 6: and you're here at the podium in the White House 80 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 6: briefing room calling him a threat. How many more assassination 81 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 6: attempts on Donald Trump until the president and the vice 82 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 6: president and you pick a different word to describe Trump 83 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 6: other than threat. 84 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 7: Peter, if anything from this administration, I actually completely disagree 85 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 7: with the premise of your question. The question that you're 86 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 7: asking it is also incredibly dangerous in the way that 87 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 7: you're asking it, because American people are watching. And to 88 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 7: say that, to say that from an administration who has 89 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 7: consistently condemned political violence, from an administration where the president 90 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 7: called the former president and was thankful, grateful that he 91 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 7: was okay, from an administration who has called out January sixth, 92 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 7: called out the attack of Paul Pelosi, called out and 93 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 7: said we need to lower the temperature after the Butler incident. 94 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 7: And now for you to make that kind of comment 95 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 7: in your question, because your question involved the comment and 96 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 7: a statement, and you know it is that is also 97 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 7: incredibly dangerous. 98 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 2: When I love it, the interest is that is also 99 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: incredibly dangerous. Okay, So she admitting, yes, we were using 100 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 2: dangerous rhetoric. Yes, we are purposely calling Donald Trump a threat. Yes, 101 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 2: we're saying to all the crazies up there, keep up 102 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 2: the good work. 103 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: Two of you have tried, keep going. 104 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 4: So Ben, let me ask you something. 105 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: Look, that whole answer from Kareem John Pierre was outrageously offensive, 106 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 3: But I want to ask you what do you make 107 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:25,919 Speaker 3: of the two words she uses the Butler incident? That 108 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 3: may be one of the most chilling euphemisms I've ever heard, 109 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 3: the Butler incident. I mean, she didn't say the attempted 110 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: assassination of President Trump. She didn't say when an assassin 111 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 3: shot President Trump in the head, hit him and came 112 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: within a half inch of murdering him. She just says 113 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 3: the Butler incident. That is disgraceful. And they cannot bring 114 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: themselves even to have a moment of graciousness, a moment 115 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 3: of civility, a moment of respect for democracy. Look at 116 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 3: that same White House press conference, Karine Jean Pierre also 117 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: referred to Donald Trump as a quote threat to democracy. Now, 118 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 3: that's incendiar air rhetoric. It's rhetoric that is obviously designed 119 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 3: to continue to encourage people who hate him, to continue 120 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: to encourage lunatics. And the sad thing is, can they 121 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 3: not bring themselves to say It would be really nice 122 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 3: to hear Joe Biden stand up and say I disagree 123 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 3: with Donald Trump. I think his policies are wrong. But 124 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: what happened this weekend was horrific. It was wrong, it 125 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 3: was evil. What happened in Butler, Pennsylvania was horrific, It 126 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,119 Speaker 3: was wrong, it was evil, and understand there's no place 127 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: for violence, and we the Biden Harris administration, we are 128 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 3: going to do everything necessary to protect Donald Trump and 129 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 3: that includes look on you and I on this podcast 130 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: two days ago on Monday, we called for the Biden 131 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 3: Harris administration to provide a full Presidential Secret Service protection 132 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 3: detailed to Donald Trump given two assassination tempts in sixty 133 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 3: four days. It is the obvious step. And on Monday 134 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 3: I said, listen, if Kamala Harris has any sense, she 135 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: would stand up and call for this now. Sadly, I 136 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 3: guess I over overestimated Kamala. I overestimated Joe Biden because 137 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: they're not capable. They hate him so much that they're 138 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 3: not capable of saying this election will be decided by 139 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 3: the voters. We will not allow some crazed lunatic to 140 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 3: threaten to murder one of the candidates. The voters of 141 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 3: America are going to side and we're going to do 142 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: everything necessary to keep him safe. They can't say that 143 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 3: because their hatred so consumes who they are. 144 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 1: It's not just them. 145 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: And I think this is a stark moment because the 146 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 2: White House and for people that don't know how it works, 147 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 2: you have a comms team, you have the chief of staff, 148 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: you have people that meet. They obviously had very clear 149 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 2: conversations about Donald Trump and the second assassination attempt on him, 150 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 2: and they clearly made the decision for Jean Pierre to 151 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 2: go out there and to continue to refer to Donald 152 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: Trump as a threat to America, a threat to democracy, 153 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 2: a threat to our way of life that they didn't 154 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: want to ratchet down. And so when I see that center, 155 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: I just have to now just be honest with you. 156 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: I'm like, all right, you guys want I mean, do 157 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: you want him dead? Because you're not giving them protection, 158 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: You're not trying to stop it, you're not condemning it. 159 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 2: You're going out there and you're using the same damn 160 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: words that got us to this point. So is that 161 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: the game plan now, like nothing else has worked, So 162 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 2: you crazies will keep giving you the words you need 163 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 2: to be inspired? Is that how far gone we are 164 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: in this country, especially on the democratic side of things. 165 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: Look, I don't want to impute that intention to them, 166 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 3: but what I will say is that neither Joe Biden 167 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: or Kamala Harris is standing up and leading right now. 168 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: Neither one of them is willing to say we need 169 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 3: the same protection that Trump had when he was president, 170 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,559 Speaker 3: and frankly, the same protection that he will have when 171 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: he's re elected president of November. Like that would be 172 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,600 Speaker 3: the gracious, the honorable thing. And by the way, it 173 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: might even help Kamala Harris politically to demonstrate that she's 174 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 3: not just a hard leftist partisan. But I just believe 175 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 3: that's so. Look, I think the hard left, they are 176 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 3: so consumed by hate, they really do believe. They believe 177 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 3: he's hittler, they believe he's the devil, and so they 178 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 3: can't bring themselves that, they can't bring themselves to be 179 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 3: honorable and gracious and say, it would be horrible for America. 180 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: Horrible if either of the two presidential candidates were murdered 181 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 3: before election day. Look, it would be horrible for America. 182 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 3: I don't want I certainly don't wish any violence on Kamala. 183 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 3: I'm glad she has a Secret Service detail, as we 184 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 3: talked about on Monday. I pray for Donald Trump's safety, 185 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 3: I pray for Joe Biden's safety. I pray for Kamala 186 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 3: Harris's safety. But why is it? What is it with 187 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 3: this White House what is it with Democrats that they 188 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 3: can't reciprocate and say the same thing. 189 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 2: Well, and even on CNN they had a former FBI 190 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 2: counter terrorism expert on and he was just telling the truth. 191 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 2: He said on CNN, it's the rhetoric that got us here, 192 00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: and this second shooting was clearly quote politically motivated, meaning 193 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: it's the politics here and the rhetoric being used in 194 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: the politics. And this was said on I don't know 195 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 2: if this was his last appearance ever, but he did 196 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 2: say it once. 197 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: What does the fact that he wanted to survive say 198 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: to you? 199 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 5: It says that he's not First, he's not suicidal. Apparently 200 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 5: he wasn't going to take his own life if he 201 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 5: was almost being captured. Clearly we saw that he was 202 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 5: captured without that, and it tells me that he's probably 203 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 5: much more politically motivated. The last shooter in Pennsylvania, I 204 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 5: don't want to say his name because I don't want 205 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 5: to promote him in any way, but he was clearly 206 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 5: a guy that was looking for the notoriety of taking 207 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 5: that shot. I would think we're going to find that 208 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 5: this guy's extremely politically motivated and that he probably was 209 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 5: spurred on by much of the political diatribes that are 210 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 5: going on these days talking about Trump, equating him to 211 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 5: Hitler and things like that. So I don't think this 212 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 5: is the last we'll see if crazy. He's out there 213 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 5: trying to do this. 214 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: He's warning this is not going to be the last 215 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 2: ye crazy as if you guys keep it. 216 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: Up and the Lighthouse couldn't refrain from the horrible and 217 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 3: hateful rhetoric for even forty eight hours. They're so invested 218 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 3: in it, would it be that hard for them to say, 219 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 3: you know what, we don't like Trump's policies. We think 220 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: they're bad for America. 221 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 4: By the way, You. 222 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 3: And I don't, but they do, and then that's legitimate 223 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 3: political discourse. But they can't. They have to describe him 224 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: as an existential threat to our nation, and they have 225 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 3: to know that that only encourages yet more crazies to 226 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 3: do more crazy things. And when you combine that rhetoric 227 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 3: with the continued decision, So Joe Biden, Kamala Harris has 228 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 3: done nothing zero to increase the protection around Donald Trump 229 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,960 Speaker 3: that we know of. They're certainly not out there saying 230 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 3: we will make sure this will never happen again. If 231 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 3: you wish harm on either of the presidential candidates. You 232 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: will fail, you will be arrested, you will be shot, 233 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 3: you will not succeed. They're not saying that, and and 234 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: that is an incredible dereliction of duty and dereliction of 235 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 3: their responsibility. 236 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,359 Speaker 2: It's also another part of the story that has really exposed. 237 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna call them the liberal mean anymore. 238 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 2: I'm just going to call them the state sponsored media 239 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 2: because that's what they are. And what they're now doing 240 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 2: is they're victim shaming. 241 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 4: Uh. 242 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: It's it's the same way that you see people that 243 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: victim shame an attractive young female after she's sexually assault 244 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 2: They're like, well, if she didn't wear that beautiful dress 245 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 2: and and and and and dress provocatively dot dot dot, 246 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: it's victim shaming. And now they're doing with Donald Trump's 247 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 2: like wow, if Donald Trump wouldn't just go play golf, 248 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: then this wouldn't happen. If he wouldn't have outdoor rallies, 249 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 2: this wouldn't happen. It's actually his fault that he that 250 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 2: he's that he's getting shot at. This was Joe Scarborough 251 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: first chance back right, first time back on TV after 252 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 2: someone tried to kill Trump and what was their conversation 253 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: talking about victim shaming and mentioning a golf course that 254 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 2: had nothing to do with Trump International Golf Club in 255 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 2: West Palm Beach. He used the point about a golf course. 256 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: I think it was in Virginia. Listen. 257 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 8: Secret Service showed a new president Donald Trump photos of 258 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 8: how you can shoot long range pictures of him while 259 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 8: he golfed at his Virginia club and warned that an 260 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 8: assassin could kill him the same way. But Trump insisted 261 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 8: the clubs were safe and he was going to keep 262 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 8: playing golf, despite the fact that his habit quote at 263 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 8: the semi public courses put his life at risk for 264 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 8: many years. 265 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 9: Anyone who has had any experience with the Secret Service 266 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 9: know that it is in a way, I would say teamwork. 267 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 9: Where the Secret Service can do what they can do, 268 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 9: they also have to warn you as to when their 269 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 9: job is harder or their job is made impossible. 270 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 2: I mean, let's just victims shame, and it's his fault, folks. 271 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 2: He deserves it well. 272 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 3: Then, to be fair, no other president of the United 273 00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 3: States as ever in the history of this country played golf. 274 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: Donald Trump is the only president reckless and irresponsible is 275 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: to go to a golf course. 276 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 2: Right, valid point, right now, yeah, and that we've never 277 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: seen any other president playing golf. 278 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: Good point. 279 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 3: Hey, look look look I want to go back to this. 280 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: That is friggin' absurd. Let's be clear. Gerald Ford went 281 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: to the golf course repeatedly. Richard Nixon went to the 282 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 3: golf course repeatedly. Jimmy Carter went to the golf course. 283 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 3: Ronald Reagan went to the golf course. George Herbert walker 284 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 3: Bush went to the golf course. Bill Clinton went to 285 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 3: the golf course. Barack Obama went to the golf course. 286 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: Every president of our lifetimes and before has gone to 287 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 3: the golf course. And yet what does MSNBC say it's 288 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 3: his fault? How dare he play golf? Because understand, they're 289 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 3: operating in a world where they hate Trump so much 290 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 3: that they view the only place he should be safe 291 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 3: is in an underground bunker at Norad in Colorado, because 292 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 3: if he's out in public that their view as well. Look, 293 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 3: he's taking a risk, he's going to be killed. That 294 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,880 Speaker 3: is like that whole exchange. And and and you know 295 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: the line well with the Secret Service, it's it's a 296 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 3: back and forth. It's a conversation. Well, you know what, 297 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: every other president they had secret Service, and yet somehow 298 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 3: they managed to play golf. Why because the Secret Service 299 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 3: was able to protect them. Here there is not a 300 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 3: sufficient detail to protect Donald Trump. Why. I believe because 301 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 3: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorgas are so 302 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 3: political they do not want to assign the resources necessary 303 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 3: to protect Trump. And and and so that I got 304 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 3: to say that exchange just pisses me off. 305 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 2: It's constant, and it's it's constantly happening. Now they're not 306 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 2: holding back at all. And and we have a media 307 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 2: with a narrative that a, it's his fault and he's 308 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 2: a threat to this country. 309 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 8: Uh. 310 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 2: We put together a couple of different montages of the 311 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: left and the rhetoric that they used against him. These 312 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: the highest people in our government and the and the 313 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 2: state sponsored media. 314 00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: This is what they said. 315 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 2: And I'm gonna remind people here's just some of their 316 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 2: biggest words they've used to attack Trump. 317 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings of 318 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: all of the country, and maybe there will be. 319 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 3: People need to start taking to the streets. 320 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 6: This is a dictator. 321 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 7: You know there needs to be unrest in the streets 322 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 7: for as long as there's unrest in our lives. 323 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 3: Enemies of the state. 324 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 10: Show me where it says that protests are supposed to 325 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 10: be polite and peaceful. 326 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 7: Do something about your dad's immigration practices effectless, come they 327 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 7: go low. 328 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 9: How do you resist the temptation to run up and 329 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 9: wring her neck? 330 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 5: The biggest terror threat in this country is white men, 331 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 5: most of them. 332 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: Radicalized up to the right. I thought he should have 333 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: punised him in the face. 334 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 9: They said, even if you lost, he insulted your why 335 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 9: he's on the escalator and called Mexican's rapist? 336 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: Immerged. 337 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 9: He said, well, what do you think I should have done? 338 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 5: So? 339 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 3: I think you should punish him in the face and 340 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 3: then gotten out of the race. 341 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: You would have been a hero. I'd like to punch 342 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: him in the face. 343 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 5: I said, if we're in high school, I take you 344 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 5: behind the gym and beat the hell out of him. 345 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: Punch some people in the face. 346 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 3: When was the last time you're assassinated a president? 347 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 10: They're still going to have to go out and put 348 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 10: a bullet in Donald Trump. 349 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: And that's a fact. Look is, his character is stabbed 350 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: to death. Where is John Wilkes Booth when you need 351 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 1: him in this way? Where is John Boogsworth when you 352 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: need him? 353 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: This has been going on since sixteen and you go 354 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 2: back and you look at these and you're like, oh, yeah, 355 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 2: this makes sense. 356 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: One plus one center equals too. 357 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: You say this long enough, you do this long enough, 358 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 2: there are going to be people that are inspired to 359 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 2: do what they're. 360 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: Doing against Donald Trump right now. 361 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 2: And you got back to DC and I have I 362 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 2: want to know how many people they are even talking 363 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 2: about the fact that clearly Donald Trump doesn't have adequate police, 364 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: you know, security from the Secret Service. 365 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: Has anybody outraged about this? 366 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 3: So the Senate has been back in session for two days. 367 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 3: I've not heard a single Democrat talk about it, not 368 00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:03,479 Speaker 3: one Wow and look you played that montage listen. I 369 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 3: heard most of those clips in real time. I heard 370 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 3: most of those clips when they were said. I gotta say, 371 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 3: hearing him back to back again just as infuriating. It 372 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:16,000 Speaker 3: is a level of grotesque rhetoric. And to be clear, 373 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 3: there is overheated rhetoric on both sides, and I wish 374 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 3: both sides would tamp it down some I think we 375 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 3: should keep our disagreements based on issues, based on substance. 376 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 3: On this podcast, you and I try to keep our 377 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 3: focus on policy disagreements, so we talk a lot about, 378 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 3: for example, the policy the egregious policy mistakes of Joe Biden, 379 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:43,719 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, open borders, allowing murderers and rapists into this country, 380 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 3: allowing potential terrorists in this country. That's all legitimate. Those 381 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 3: are policy disagreements. But there's a qualitative difference between that 382 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 3: and what you just played. Where's John Wilkes Booth when 383 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 3: you need him? That is that is a level of 384 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,719 Speaker 3: po buonousness, a level of toxicity that I think is 385 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 3: overwhelmingly on the left. They have convinced themselves that Donald 386 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 3: Trump is hitler. You may disagree with this policy, is fine, 387 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 3: that's what politics is about. Go make the case to 388 00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: the voters. But calling for his murder and the quote 389 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 3: you played there about putting a bullet in him is 390 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: exactly that. That is way, way, way outside the bounds. 391 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,439 Speaker 3: And yet they're not going to stop. 392 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 2: As we approach the one year mark of the heroic 393 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: events of October seventh in Israel, the International Fellowship of 394 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,119 Speaker 2: Christians and Jews is inviting you to join them in 395 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 2: Flags of Fellowship, an opportunity for Christians to remember the victims, 396 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: honor the heroes, and pray for those still held hostage, 397 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 2: as well as highlight the unwavering support of Christians for 398 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 2: Israel and the Jewish people.

We 406 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 2: cannot stay silent, and we cannot stay on the sidelines 407 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 2: as anti Semitism spreads like wildfire in this country and 408 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 2: around the world.

Actually, I'm excited because 414 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 2: I feel like this is just one of those headlines 415 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 2: where you're like, finally the good guys win and the 416 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 2: bad guys got something that was coming to them in 417 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 2: an amazing story, in an amazing way. And for people 418 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 2: that don't know what we're talking about, hundreds of hes 419 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 2: Blah operatives were injured, simultaneously killed. Some of them even 420 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 2: killed after pagers, Like I'm talking about old school pagers 421 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 2: that they used to communicate when the terrorist organization these 422 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 2: cells exploded, and after they got a beat, they would 423 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 2: many of them pick up the pager and get it 424 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: close to their face and there was a it looked 425 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: like it was a legitimate page we're being told that 426 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 2: came across there from Hesblah. And then the pager exploded, 427 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:59,360 Speaker 2: and the the in these areas, these hotbeds where they 428 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 2: have has so operatives, the hospitals and the pictures coming 429 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 2: out of the hospital on the videos show countless terrorists 430 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 2: screaming and yelling for help in the hospitals. This was 431 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: an amazing story. 432 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 3: It really is extraordinary. And the backstory we're just getting 433 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 3: the details. We're going to find out more, but the 434 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 3: backstories apparently that Massad, which is the equivalent of the 435 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 3: CIA in Israel. Masad intercepted a shipment of new pagers 436 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 3: for Hesbela months ago and they rigged them with high explosives, 437 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 3: and in particular, they placed an explosive called penterithol tetra 438 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:48,920 Speaker 3: nitrate PETN, which is incredibly explosive. They placed it inside 439 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 3: the batteries of the pagers. So they intercepted them. They 440 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 3: were going to Hesbela, and then they trusted Hesbela, hey 441 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,959 Speaker 3: distribute this to your terrorist, and so Hesbela put them 442 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 3: in the hands of t Now, look, they're using pagers 443 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 3: because they didn't want their cell phones. 444 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 4: To be intercepted. So it's old school. 445 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 3: But what Hesbela didn't realize is that as they were 446 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 3: distributing pages and they were deciding who gets them, I 447 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 3: feel confident they were not giving pagers to the newspaper 448 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 3: delivery guy, They were not giving pagers to the fruitstand salesmen. 449 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 3: They were giving pagers to terrorists. They were giving pages 450 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 3: to people that Hesbela wanted to be able to page 451 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 3: and say, hey, let's commit acts of terrorism. And then 452 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 3: once Israel had these pages distributed, yesterday they exploded them 453 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 3: and in one week, I'll say, you said hundreds of people. Look, 454 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 3: the reports are thousands of terrorists who had these pages explode, 455 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 3: and and and there were multiple fatalities according to public reports, 456 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 3: and there were thousands of injuries. And I get to say, 457 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 3: that is an amazing thing for Israel to simultaneously target 458 00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 3: Hesbela terrorists wherever they are. It's whoever has Bulah gave 459 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 3: a page or two if they had that pager on 460 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 3: their body. And I got to say, by the way, 461 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 3: more than a few of them had their pagers in 462 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 3: their pants, and without getting too graphic, when they exploded. 463 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 2: The memes that were flowing out there in the world 464 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: were incredible. And the story of this as it was 465 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 2: unfolding on TV, I want you to hear this report 466 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 2: from Fox so. 467 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: At ten thirty here in New York. 468 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 10: There was a fascinating story developing right now in the 469 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 10: Middle East, specifically in the country of Lebanon. There are 470 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 10: numerous reports moments ago that claim hundreds of Hezbolla members 471 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 10: have been seriously injured after the pagers they were using 472 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 10: to communicate exploded. Mike Tobins got more from Tel Aviv 473 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 10: to try and tie this together. What do you got now, Mike, Hello. 474 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 11: Well, this is the kind of thing Bill that Israel 475 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 11: will never confirm, certainly not in the early stages of it. 476 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,720 Speaker 11: But it's this remarkable development out of Lebanon where as 477 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 11: many as a thousand Hesbulafi have suddenly been injured. 478 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: Rather seriously. 479 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 11: What we've seen through some of the security video that's 480 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 11: coming out so far, the pagers that they were wearing 481 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 11: suddenly play an audio message and then explode, resulting in 482 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 11: serious injury. 483 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 1: And we're talking again to Reuter's news. 484 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 11: Agency is saying that as many as a thousand people 485 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,479 Speaker 11: were injured. So x creates a scene where you've got 486 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 11: all of the ambulances scrambling all over Beyroot in places 487 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 11: south of Beirut to try to deal with the overwhelming 488 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 11: number of injured that they have right now. These pagers, apparently, 489 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 11: according to three different security sources who were speaking of 490 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 11: the Reuters News agency, were the latest wave of pages 491 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 11: that these Hesbela operatives were getting with the belief that 492 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 11: this was secure communication that Israel couldn't tap into whatever 493 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,679 Speaker 11: they were saying and give up some information. So they 494 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 11: were carrying these pages apparently and something came out where 495 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 11: you heard this audio signal came out and all of 496 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,439 Speaker 11: the pagers detonated all at once, which is really a 497 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 11: remarkable development which would minimize collateral damage. It doesn't mean 498 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 11: that there is no collateral damage. We're hearing some reports 499 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 11: that the Iranian ambassador to Lebanon, an individual named moch 500 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 11: Taba Amani, was among the injured. So you have a 501 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,719 Speaker 11: very chaotic and dramatic development in Lebanon right now, with 502 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 11: as many as a thousand Hesbela fighters injured. 503 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 1: Bill, So thank you Mike for that. 504 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,120 Speaker 10: I just stand by one second, Dana. 505 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: This is really an intriguing story. I wanted to ask 506 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: Mike a question. 507 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 9: If you're still there, Mike, I was the ambassador sure 508 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:27,919 Speaker 9: holding one of these pages? 509 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: Was it on his person? 510 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 11: I don't have that information, but as it stands to reasion, 511 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 11: you could be standing near someone who had one of 512 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 11: these small explosions, presumably on their waist, and be injured 513 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 11: by it as well. 514 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 9: What's interesting is this connection right between Iran and Hesbela. 515 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 11: Well exactly, I mean Iran. HESBLA is the forward deployed 516 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 11: army for Iran. It has always been supported by Iran, 517 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 11: so presumably they would have contact with each other whoever 518 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:57,480 Speaker 11: the operative is. 519 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 10: And there's a lot of video coming out on social 520 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 10: media right now. We're going to be judicious and how 521 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 10: we air that because some of it is graphic. 522 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,160 Speaker 1: So stand by. 523 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 10: The hospitals say they're just being overwhelmed throughout the country, 524 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 10: especially in the capital city of bay Russo this is 525 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 10: some of the wash there. 526 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: Mike, thank you, get back on it by the way, 527 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: et cetera. 528 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 2: I feel bad for like the random dude today that 529 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 2: like spilt some you know, hot water, some boiling water himself, 530 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 2: but he has to go to the hospital. He's like, 531 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 2: I'm not a terrorist. I'm not a terrorists, I promised, 532 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 2: Like okay, buddy, sure you're not. No, no, no, like this 533 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 2: legit normal injury. And then and then you hear this like, 534 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: oh yeah, the ambassador from Iran he got hurt too. 535 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: A Did he have the pager and so he was 536 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 2: in direct communication with with Hespola or was he hanging 537 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:44,479 Speaker 2: out with a bunch of terrorists. 538 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: Either way, it's pretty damning for them. Don't worry. 539 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: I'm sure the White House won't respond to that and 540 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 2: say that's a threat to the world at all. 541 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: No, they're just say Donald Trump is. 542 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: Look the fact that Iran's ambassador to Lebanon, whose name 543 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: is much Taba Moni, was injured by an explosion of 544 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 3: a pager. It makes transparent which what is obvious. Hesbela 545 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 3: and Jamas are both agents of Iran. Iran provides ninety 546 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 3: percent of the funding to Hesbela. Iran provides ninety percent 547 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 3: of the funding Jumas. Iran funded the October seventh death 548 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 3: squads that murdered over twelve hundred Israelis, that raped Israeli 549 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 3: women and little girls, and that took multiple Americans hostage 550 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 3: and then murdered multiple Americans. And so at one level, 551 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 3: it's it's not surprising, of course Iran's ambassador had a 552 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 3: damn pager because Hesbela works for him. But it still 553 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 3: makes abundantly clear. I mean, there is something about this 554 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 3: response by Israel that that has a simplicity to it. 555 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 3: They trusted Hesbela to give the pagers to whomever is 556 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 3: working for them. So Hesbela determined who gets killed, who 557 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 3: gets serious injuries, who gets body parts blown off, whoever. 558 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 3: Hesbela says, we wanted a pager whenever we need you. 559 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,400 Speaker 3: And apparently the ambassador from Iran is among those people 560 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: who had one of those pagers. And you know, it 561 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 3: is particularly amazing when you consider that Joe Biden and 562 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris in the past four years have flowed one 563 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 3: hundred billion dollars to Iran, while Iran is funding Hesbela, 564 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 3: the Biden Harris administration is sending money to them, and 565 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 3: this is it was an amazing military strike by Israel, 566 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 3: And in particular what is so powerful. Look, if you're 567 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 3: engaged in warfare, as obviously Israel is, and they're engaged 568 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 3: in warfare against Hamas and gods, they're engaged in warfare 569 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 3: against Hesbela and Lebanon. But anytime you're engaged in warfare, 570 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 3: if you have, say information that a terrorist or multiple 571 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 3: terrorists sort of building, and let's say you fire a 572 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 3: missile or drop a bomb and you try to kill 573 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 3: the terrorists, there are significant risks of collateral damages. And 574 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 3: that's true in every war. That's true at all warfare, 575 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,719 Speaker 3: and by the way, it is exponentially more true in 576 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 3: this battle because Hamas and Hesbela both deliberately use human shields. 577 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 3: In other words, they locate their terrorists where they're surrounded 578 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 3: by civilians because they want anytime Israel tries to take 579 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 3: out one of the terrorists, they want innocent civilians to 580 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 3: be killed so they can use it to demonize Israel. 581 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 3: I got to say, this strategy, I've never seen anything 582 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 3: like it. It's something out of like a James Bond 583 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 3: movie or a spy novel where they distribute the pagers. 584 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 3: It may come out that there are some relatively small 585 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 3: number of people who were in a and bystanders that 586 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 3: maybe were right next to someone with a pager and 587 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:08,959 Speaker 3: got injured. But presumably the explosions are fairly controlled and 588 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 3: they're designed. If you have a pager in your pants 589 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 3: and it blows up, well maybe you shouldn't be taking 590 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 3: a pager from a terrorist organization who's presumably paging you 591 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: to murder people. And so it is precisely targeted to 592 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 3: take out terrorists in a way that I've never seen before. 593 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure the UN will come out with a condemning statement. 594 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: Don't worry. 595 00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 2: I'm sure because I'm just waiting for it to come 596 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: out saying well they didn't know who exactly had these pagers. 597 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll see all that propaganda that will hit 598 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 2: the pages shortly. 599 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: Let me tell you by Blackout Coffee. 600 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 2: Every day, I start my morning with a premium cup 601 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 2: of coffee, and I start my morning at seven o'clock 602 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:51,160 Speaker 2: on the radio. 603 00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: I've got to be awake, and part. 604 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: Of my day is getting up and making sure I've 605 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 2: got coffee. 606 00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: I've got to be awake.

There's another really important story, 637 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 2: and it's not getting as much press as it should, 638 00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: and that's why I think many people actually listen to 639 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 2: the show because they get info like this. You may remember, 640 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: if you go backwards, there was a big fake controversy 641 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 2: by virtually every Democratic operative, the people running for office, congressmen, 642 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 2: senators on the left, and it was over IVF. Conservatives 643 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 2: have been in favor of IVF and protecting IVF for 644 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 2: I mean, as long as I can remember. My kids 645 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: are in vitro fertilization kids. Without it, I probably wouldn't 646 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,399 Speaker 2: have kids. And I'm so thankful for the technology. And 647 00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 2: so when this controversy happened in Alabama, you teamed up 648 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 2: with Katie Britt to say, Okay, we're gonna put our 649 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 2: money where our mouth is and make sure that we 650 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 2: protect IVF. And there was an opportunity to do that 651 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 2: in Congress, and the Democrats stopped it. 652 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 3: Why so, look that this story is incredibly revealing of 653 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 3: everything that's wrong with Washington and how corrupt a lot 654 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 3: of politics is. 655 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 4: Let's start with IVF. 656 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 3: You and I both strongly and unequivocally support in vitro fertilization. 657 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 3: I think IVF is an incredible medical miracle. It has 658 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 3: enabled millions of parents, moms and dads to have kids 659 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 3: that couldn't otherwise have kids. Two percent of all live 660 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 3: births in America could come from my IVF. There are 661 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 3: over eight million children born via IVF, including your kids. Yeah, look, 662 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 3: that is an amazing A very close staffer of mine 663 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 3: who is with me most days, we were talking about 664 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 3: this issue as I was fighting to defend IVF, and 665 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 3: he told me, much to my surprise, he said, you 666 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 3: know what, I was born via IVF. I'm an IVF kid. Wow. Like, 667 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 3: that's amazing, and I think IVF is extraordinary. Now, following 668 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 3: a decision of the Alabama Supreme Court concerning IVF, there 669 00:37:37,239 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 3: was enormous uncertainty. There was enormous fear and enormous concern 670 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 3: that IVF would be in jeopardy, to be clear, in Alabama. 671 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 3: When that concern was raised, the state legislature acted incredibly 672 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 3: quickly to pass legislation making clear that IVF would be 673 00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 3: protected in Alabama. So, as a real practical matter, I 674 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 3: believe there is zero threat to IVF at America. Why well, 675 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 3: let's take the US Senate. In the US Senate, there 676 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 3: are one hundred senators. To the best of my knowledge, 677 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 3: all one hundred senators support IVF. I do not know 678 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 3: of a single senator in either. 679 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:18,720 Speaker 4: Party who opposes IVF. 680 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: But yet, there was genuine concern, There was confusion that 681 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 3: IVF might be in jeopardy. And this is where Democrats 682 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,920 Speaker 3: and the corporate media had an intense political interest to 683 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 3: flame that fear and to encourage that confusion. And so 684 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 3: as that was happening, I saw that I was dismayed. 685 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 3: And I will tell you so. When the senate's in session, 686 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 3: Republican senators, we have lunch every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday together, 687 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 3: so all the Republican senators together. And Katie brit the 688 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 3: Senator from Alabama, has become a good friend. She's been 689 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 3: a guest on this podcast. She stood up at one 690 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 3: lunch and she gave an impassion speech to the other 691 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 3: republic consenators about how important IVF was and how she 692 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 3: was hearing from from women and men, although mostly women, 693 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:11,239 Speaker 3: but parents and would be parents across Alabama who were 694 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 3: incredibly concerned IVF was in jeopardy. And he said, she said, 695 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 3: we've got to protect that. I listened to what she said, 696 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 3: and so I went to her an approach her and said, listen, 697 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 3: U support IVF ice sport. IVF let's draft legislation that 698 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 3: puts a clear, unequivocal protection into federal statutory law to 699 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 3: make clear that no state and no local government can 700 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 3: ban IVF. Let's find common grounds. 701 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: She agreed. 702 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 3: I drafted the legislation, we did it together, we filed it. Now, 703 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 3: the Democrats want to fearmonger on IVF. So there's a 704 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 3: different bill that they call an IVF bill. That is 705 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,720 Speaker 3: that is introduced by Tammy Duckworth, the very liberal Democrat 706 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 3: from Illinois. The Tammy Duckworth quote IVF bill is not 707 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 3: an IVF bill. It's a radical abortion bill. It would 708 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 3: give the Secretary of HHS Health and Human Services broad 709 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 3: authority to, under that bill protect abortion in a vast 710 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 3: variety of circumstances. Also, the Duckworth bill explicitly overturns the 711 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,439 Speaker 3: protections of religious liberty under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. 712 00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 3: I support IVF, but I certainly don't want to force 713 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 3: a physician to participate in IVF if it's against their 714 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 3: religious faith. It's not against my religious faith, but if 715 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:36,280 Speaker 3: it's against theirs, I respect everyone's religious liberty to decide, Okay. 716 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 3: I don't want to personally participate in it. And yet 717 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 3: the Democrats they do want to force, let's someone to 718 00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,400 Speaker 3: potentially violate their own religious faith to participate in something 719 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 3: that they have moral concerns about. 720 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 9: And so. 721 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 3: Yesterday Chuck Schumer teed up a vote. It's the second 722 00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 3: time in a couple of months on the Tammy Duckworth bill. Now, 723 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,200 Speaker 3: the reason he ted up the vote is because he 724 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 3: knew it would fail, and it was written in such 725 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 3: a way as to be filled with poison pills as 726 00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 3: to force any Republican with principles who believes in life 727 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,479 Speaker 3: to vote against it, because this would empower a Joe 728 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 3: Bidener Kamala Harris administration to go after laws protecting unborn 729 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 3: children in states across this country. This was an abortion bill, 730 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 3: it was not an IVF bill, and it was again 731 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 3: designed to trample religious liberty. So yesterday on the Senate floor, 732 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 3: I went to the Senate floor along with Katie Britton. 733 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 3: We tried to pass our IVF bill and I stood 734 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 3: up and gave a speech in support of it. Katy 735 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 3: Britt stood up and gave a speech in support of it, 736 00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 3: and I asked for unanimous consent to pass our bill. 737 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 3: And what happened The Democrats stood up and objected. They 738 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 3: said no, we will not allow this to pass. And 739 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: we had a debate back and forth and I want 740 00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,440 Speaker 3: to encourage you, if you care about this issue, go 741 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 3: listen to the debate, Listen to my speech, listen to 742 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 3: Katie Britt's speech, and then listen to Patty Murray, the 743 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 3: Democrat from Washington State who objected, because the entire point 744 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 3: of what the Democrats were doing was a purely political exercise. 745 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 3: If they actually wanted to protect IVF, all they had 746 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:23,960 Speaker 3: to do was very simple, not say two words, not 747 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:28,479 Speaker 3: say the words I object. If they had not said 748 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 3: those two words today, the Senate would have unanimously passed 749 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 3: my legislation protecting IVF. But from the Democrat's perspective, that 750 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:42,960 Speaker 3: would have been a catastrophic disaster because if we actually 751 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,760 Speaker 3: pass a strong statutory protection for IVF, then they can't 752 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 3: run millions of dollars to campaign ads scaring voters into 753 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 3: saying the mean Republicans want to take away IVF. So 754 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:59,399 Speaker 3: they objected to Katie Britz and my legislation because they 755 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 3: don't want to protect IVF. And a point that I 756 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 3: made in the debate, I said, listen, the Democrat bill 757 00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 3: was drafted deliberately with poison pills. They're objective. They wanted 758 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,719 Speaker 3: to Republicans to vote no, because they don't actually want 759 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 3: to pass their bill. What they want to do is 760 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 3: force Republicans to vote no so they can run ads say, oh, 761 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 3: Republicans are a post to IVF. That is a lie. 762 00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,840 Speaker 3: Not a single Republicans a post IVF. A couple of 763 00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 3: months ago, when we had this debate, one of the 764 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 3: people who joined Katie and me on the Senate floor 765 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,440 Speaker 3: was Roger Marshall. Roger Marshall, Republican Senator from Kansas, is 766 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 3: a physician. He is an obgyn who has delivered thousands 767 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 3: of babies, and he actually has performed IVF procedures for 768 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 3: hundreds of parents. He literally was an IVF doctor. And 769 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 3: yet the Democrats talking point is an IVF doctor is 770 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 3: apposed to IVF. It's absurd. So understand they drafted their 771 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 3: bill with poison pills because their objective was to make 772 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 3: Republicans vote against him, and all but two of us did. 773 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 3: My bill, and Katy's bill has no poison pills in it. 774 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,439 Speaker 3: Every Democrat agrees with every word of our bill. There's 775 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,560 Speaker 3: not a word in it that they disagree with. Their 776 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 3: problem is if it passes, the issue they want to 777 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 3: run against goes away, and they don't want the issue 778 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 3: to go away, and so sadly they objected it. And 779 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 3: I got to tell you, this is an example of 780 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 3: where the corrupt corporate media matters. When I was giving 781 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 3: my speech, when Katy was giving her speech, there were 782 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 3: no reporters in the gallery. If you read any of 783 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 3: the press coverage, the reporters all said. The headlines today 784 00:44:40,360 --> 00:44:44,719 Speaker 3: were Republicans block bill to protect IVF. And you know what, 785 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 3: the corporate media virtually none of them covered the fact 786 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,880 Speaker 3: that we had a bill to protect IVF the Democrats blocked. 787 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 3: Part of the reason the Democrats are willing to do 788 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 3: that is they know the media will not cover what 789 00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 3: they're doing. 790 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 2: Credible.
