WEBVTT - I Was Wearing Goat Pants

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:15.280 --> 0:00:19.919
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and

0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:33.599
<v Speaker 1>Jetty and he arms Yet live from the studio scene.

0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:36.960
<v Speaker 1>See you're a dimly let room where deep within the

0:00:37.000 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. And today

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>we're under the two ledge of our general manager, Elon Musk,

0:00:44.800 --> 0:00:50.919
<v Speaker 1>four star general. What does that mean? There's this story

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>going around.

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a headline on a lot of your big publications

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 2>that Elon Musk is going to get a top secret

0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 2>briefing on our attack plans when we go to war

0:00:58.560 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 2>with China.

0:01:00.160 --> 0:01:02.480
<v Speaker 1>But the Pentagon is saying what, No, he's not.

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 2>But it's still the giant headline. Who knows how much

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:08.679
<v Speaker 2>truth there is to it or how little.

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:11.520
<v Speaker 1>So those of you watching the TV feed at home

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:15.000
<v Speaker 1>are probably wondering why Joe and I are smeared with

0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 1>blood today, and the reason is spring equinox. Joe and

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.440
<v Speaker 1>I are both druids. That's actually how we met thirty

0:01:21.520 --> 0:01:23.839
<v Speaker 1>years ago. We were at We were standing around a fire.

0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:25.479
<v Speaker 1>We just slaughtered a lamb.

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I was wearing goat pants, he was wearing goat pants,

0:01:29.360 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 2>thank you, gladys. Yes, thirty years ago we're around a

0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:34.760
<v Speaker 2>fire at midnight on the spring equinox, so it'd have

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 2>been thirty some years ago today. And then we're druids,

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 2>and then we get into their rituals and all that

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 2>sort of stuff. The sun is directly overhead and the equator.

0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 1>At the spring equinox. I didn't realize that. And it's

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:53.440
<v Speaker 1>the only time of the year that there is sun

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>on both the South Pole and the North Pole at

0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 1>the same time, which is very handy if you're traveling

0:01:58.120 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 1>between those two locations.

0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess, Wow, this is all fairly interesting.

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:06.880
<v Speaker 1>How have I gotten to this advanced age in life

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and not known this? Well?

0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Did you know?

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know this? Oh, it makes sense though. So

0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:13.079
<v Speaker 1>June twenty first is the longest day of the year,

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 1>longest sunlight of the year. The day doesn't change, it's

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.640
<v Speaker 1>still twenty four hours. But now we're tracking fine, yes,

0:02:19.280 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 1>and then you know December twenty first is the shortest

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.440
<v Speaker 1>day of the year. But your spring and fall equinox

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:28.440
<v Speaker 1>is the nighttime and daytime are exactly the same length,

0:02:28.639 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>which obviously that's delightful fascinating. Yes, but More importantly, it's

0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 1>a number of other things depending on where you live.

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:42.080
<v Speaker 1>Koone Takani is where it is celebrated many places in

0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 1>the world. Meticulous spring cleaning to purge a home's negative energy. Boy,

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:50.639
<v Speaker 1>I was to do that, and then also jumping over

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>fire to symbolically cleanse the prior year's bad experiences, of

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:57.280
<v Speaker 1>which I've had many. So maybe I'll make a fire

0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:59.760
<v Speaker 1>for the weekend, jump over it and cleanse the past

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:01.079
<v Speaker 1>year bad experiences.

0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:03.519
<v Speaker 2>If that's what it takes, fine, it's got to be

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.160
<v Speaker 2>a fairly small fire. In my case, my hops are

0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 2>not quite what they.

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Used to be.

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 2>But I'd hate to singe my nether world as it were.

0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Fellow druids. I was telling my son yesterday. We were

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:18.519
<v Speaker 1>talking about though, because we had great weather where we are.

0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:21.520
<v Speaker 1>So sometimes you know, spring arrives and it feels like spring,

0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes it doesn't. Man, did it yesterday? I mean

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 1>it was just gorgeous here. It's like eighty degrees and sunny.

0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 2>And it's far far more primal and powerful than Oh

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.239
<v Speaker 2>the weather is better, therefore I can do more fun

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 2>things outside.

0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 1>No, it's very deep.

0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 2>In your reptile brain, right, that's you delight in the

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:38.680
<v Speaker 2>spring coming.

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly what I was talking to my son about.

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.160
<v Speaker 2>Of course, because he's a teenager, he'd say, I don't

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 2>feel anything.

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>But but it is. It's just like you said. It

0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>is not just well it's a nice day so I

0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 1>can go for a bike ride.

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>It's just oh my god, just so you feel like

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.440
<v Speaker 2>the possibilities are endless with your life and you want

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:03.240
<v Speaker 2>to you know, mate, and have offspring and started meet clearly, yes,

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 2>but more than usual, bright guy, it's always but good point. Yeah,

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing, right right, Yeah, it's it's powerful. That's not

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 2>to get overly philosophical about this, but one of my

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:21.359
<v Speaker 2>firm beliefs about the modern world is that we have

0:04:21.440 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 2>abandoned our sense of rhythm.

0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 1>For all sorts of things.

0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 2>Everything is available all the time, twelve months a year,

0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:32.800
<v Speaker 2>twenty four hours a day, whether it's your beloved childhood,

0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Christmas TV specials or you know, communication or entertainment or whatever.

0:04:39.080 --> 0:04:41.920
<v Speaker 2>Night is not very different from the day other than

0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:43.760
<v Speaker 2>the lack of light out of doors.

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Right, And if you're an endorsement, an avid endorsement is

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:51.160
<v Speaker 1>so many younger people are nowadays, so there is really

0:04:51.200 --> 0:04:53.880
<v Speaker 1>no difference because you're not You're inside no matter what anyway.

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:55.800
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, no, there's no difference between nine or day.

0:04:55.880 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>You're right, All the rhythms of humanity for of thousands

0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of years have kind of done away with in the

0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>modern society.

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Even more fundamentally, I think than some of the things

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned is the question of inputs and quiet, interaction

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:18.520
<v Speaker 2>and solitude, entertainment and quote unquote boredom, which I think

0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.880
<v Speaker 2>is incredibly important psychologically. The more the more they realize that.

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:23.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I'll put an earbud in my ear today

0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.719
<v Speaker 1>and listen to a podcast about the importance of solitude.

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:32.200
<v Speaker 1>That's a great idea. But what's from the old Bambi

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 1>movie that the rabbit is he's pounding his foot on

0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>the ground and something about the twittering or the thumping

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:43.080
<v Speaker 1>or whatever of the animals come springtime mating season. I

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:45.839
<v Speaker 1>mean that they're you know, mating season. Why would it

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 1>be something for animals or animals and not something for us.

0:05:49.240 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>So that's part of it is where we don't do

0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:54.880
<v Speaker 1>that as human beings. We don't tend to. I don't

0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>think like more often have babies get together and have

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>babies in the springtime. But but we're designed to like, ah,

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I know, I've got my plumage out. I don't know

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>about the rest of you.

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:09.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh it's and it's beautiful too. I was gonna say something.

0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:13.480
<v Speaker 2>I find myself wondering though, given our roughly nine months

0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:19.560
<v Speaker 2>just gestation period as almost apiens, whether we shouldn't like

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:21.520
<v Speaker 2>feel the urge in what October?

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:23.840
<v Speaker 1>So the kid is born in nice weather or something

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>like that. That's funny you just mentioning October, and I

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:32.000
<v Speaker 1>get this feeling of just honkering down, no optimisms up,

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.800
<v Speaker 1>all the covers up, just just kind of right wild

0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:37.600
<v Speaker 1>and just trying to ride out the rest of the year,

0:06:37.680 --> 0:06:41.839
<v Speaker 1>maybe find some fentanyl. Just you're just hoston at that point.

0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Whereas it right like this time of year yesterday, it's

0:06:44.320 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 1>just like, ah, come on that life is great. Let's

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:49.560
<v Speaker 1>do something. I just find that interesting.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.360
<v Speaker 2>So just you know, it's not exactly a data set,

0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:57.120
<v Speaker 2>but I've got two September kids the ninth months, that's

0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:59.960
<v Speaker 2>easy enough to do the math, and a December kid.

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 2>So evidently in the Getty household winter time as well,

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:09.560
<v Speaker 2>it's time for reindeer games. But anyway to use their

0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:10.520
<v Speaker 2>own I need.

0:07:10.400 --> 0:07:13.760
<v Speaker 1>To work on my What was that phrase, uh, haktua?

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it was the phrase of no cleaning out,

0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 1>no different phrase. No, that's not the phrase, bad phrase,

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 1>may I think that's it's interesting that baseball the opening

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>day so much coincides with the beginning of spring, and

0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 1>then that the whole hope springs eternal baseball start of

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:37.880
<v Speaker 1>the year. I mean, you know, the fact that they

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>start at the same time, that it's that feeling we've

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 1>all got already for springtime. And then we've got a

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.239
<v Speaker 1>sport that starts then too.

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 2>And you are just a font of philosophy today.

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:47.120
<v Speaker 1>All right.

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:50.440
<v Speaker 2>It occurs to me then the rhythm of baseball is,

0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, you just spring into action and the spring

0:07:52.520 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 2>and get ready and then in the fall, the late fall,

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:56.600
<v Speaker 2>it is crunch time.

0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>It's time to win the championship.

0:07:58.840 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 2>Everything serious and decisions and you know, activities are done,

0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 2>made and done that will determine whether you're successful or not,

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:11.840
<v Speaker 2>much like preparing for the winter time. Well, I said, way,

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:14.360
<v Speaker 2>baseball is so close to so many people's I don't know,

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.720
<v Speaker 2>similar to the mating thing. You get out your bat

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 2>and balls here in the springtime. Oh yeah, all right,

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 2>you know what, Michael, Your segment went on thirty seconds

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:23.920
<v Speaker 2>too long?

0:08:24.440 --> 0:08:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Did you put the bat and balls away in the fall?

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:32.679
<v Speaker 1>Time is over? Let's wait at next year. You're an idiot.

0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:36.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe

0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Getty on this it is Friday, March twenty first year,

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five, where I'm strong you getting we approve

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:43.679
<v Speaker 1>of this program. And again I was the star of

0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:44.320
<v Speaker 1>winter Ball.

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Clearly all right, let's begin officially now according to f

0:08:47.120 --> 0:08:49.600
<v Speaker 2>SEC rules of regulations, here we go at Mark.

0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:55.200
<v Speaker 1>How are you doing the job differently than Kamala did it? Well?

0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:58.200
<v Speaker 3>I don't have, you know, four shots of vodka before

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:00.800
<v Speaker 3>every meeting. That's That's one way I think that Kamala

0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:04.679
<v Speaker 3>really tried to bring her herself into the role. Is

0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:06.760
<v Speaker 3>is these word salads? And I think that I would

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.319
<v Speaker 3>need the help of a lot of alcohol to answer

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.559
<v Speaker 3>a question the way that Kamala Harris answered question.

0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's just if you just heard the first part,

0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 2>that's JD. Van's declaring Kamala Harris is a raving drunk.

0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:25.920
<v Speaker 2>He really kind of softened it in a second. He

0:09:26.120 --> 0:09:32.520
<v Speaker 2>realized he'd gone too far. And changed it a bit, Yes,

0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 2>said there.

0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:36.079
<v Speaker 1>At the end. Yeah. I while I laugh at that,

0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 1>I continue to say, it's not good that we keep

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>going down this road. There's really no need to claim

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:50.280
<v Speaker 1>that the other party's nominee for president was a drunk.

0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 2>At this point, they said that about Grant, who was

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:56.360
<v Speaker 2>one of the great heroes of the American history.

0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, he just at the country in a war.

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 2>They didn't like it much, Right, But if she is

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 2>a drunk, who're doing her a favor by not enabling

0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:11.600
<v Speaker 2>her anymore? Jack, Wow, I care about Kamala Harris the person.

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.800
<v Speaker 1>So we do need to get into the headline.

0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:19.079
<v Speaker 2>And this is it's the say on my Wall Street Journal,

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 2>one of my newspapers. It was the top headline. Yeah,

0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 2>the top headline in the Wall Street Journal. App Musk

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:30.200
<v Speaker 2>set to receive top secret briefings on war plans with China. Likewise,

0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.840
<v Speaker 2>the New York Times, Wow, top story.

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.720
<v Speaker 1>And then you've got the other big story that Germany

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:42.520
<v Speaker 1>has decided to invest trillion plus dollars in their defense.

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:47.559
<v Speaker 1>And as we've been saying all week long, depending on

0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.920
<v Speaker 1>your point of view, Trump finally got Europe to wake

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 1>up to the fact that they need to be able

0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:56.200
<v Speaker 1>to defend themselves. Or look how desperate Europe is. We've

0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.560
<v Speaker 1>abandoned them. They can't count on the United States as

0:10:58.600 --> 0:11:01.200
<v Speaker 1>an ally, and out of desperate they're coming up with

0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 1>their own defense.

0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:06.520
<v Speaker 2>I tell falls caused Germany to rearm and build itself

0:11:06.520 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>into a military powerhouse, and that can't possibly go wrong.

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well we all look back on this and say, oh,

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.480
<v Speaker 1>that's why we didn't want Germany to be able to rearm.

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:23.120
<v Speaker 2>All right, we thought they were nice, Now they seemed nice. Yeah,

0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:25.599
<v Speaker 2>we ought to play that Norm McDonald bit that he

0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:27.640
<v Speaker 2>did on Letterman about.

0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:31.319
<v Speaker 1>See the country that worries me is Germany. I don't

0:11:31.320 --> 0:11:37.880
<v Speaker 1>know if you're a history buffer or not. But so

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>we got Katy's headlines on the way. We've got mail

0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:42.120
<v Speaker 1>bag and those two big stories, among other things to

0:11:42.160 --> 0:11:43.640
<v Speaker 1>update you on, and a lot on the way. So

0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:46.000
<v Speaker 1>clips off of the week too, come on. Clips of

0:11:46.040 --> 0:11:53.640
<v Speaker 1>the Week coming up text line four one, the Clipse

0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:55.840
<v Speaker 1>of the Week cow coming up next segment. And before

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:59.439
<v Speaker 1>we get to Katy's headlines, we've already mentioned that. And

0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:03.440
<v Speaker 1>this is a usual. The Wall Street Journal and New

0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:09.480
<v Speaker 1>York Times both have the same big headline Pentagon to

0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:13.160
<v Speaker 1>brief elon Musk on war plans with China. Why do

0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 1>those two papers with different political viewpoints have the same

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Who got that story into the Wall Street Journal and

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:23.079
<v Speaker 1>the New York Times? Why are they both kind of

0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.680
<v Speaker 1>it feels to me like suggesting something nefarious is going

0:12:26.679 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 1>on here.

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:33.479
<v Speaker 2>Well, and it's according to two officials, two US officials

0:12:33.800 --> 0:12:38.319
<v Speaker 2>who are obviously leaking, like a you know, a punctured tire.

0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 2>We'll talk more about that later, but I find that interesting.

0:12:43.120 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 2>That's not an accident.

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Somebody wanted that headline in those two publications. Yeah, yep.

0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:54.600
<v Speaker 2>I think their motivations are fairly clear. But we will

0:12:54.600 --> 0:12:57.559
<v Speaker 2>discuss it in the coming moments. Stay tuned if you can.

0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.199
<v Speaker 2>Clips to the Week again. Next segment.

0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:00.959
<v Speaker 1>Right now, let's figure out who's reporting what it's the

0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:03.319
<v Speaker 1>lead story. It's Katie Green, Katie.

0:13:03.720 --> 0:13:08.360
<v Speaker 4>Hey, you guys, starting with ABC quote willefully insufficient. Federal

0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:11.559
<v Speaker 4>judge accuses Justice Department of evading obligations to.

0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Comply with deportation flight request. Is this a potential huge deal? Yeah?

0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:23.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's going to be one, but it

0:13:24.080 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 2>could be.

0:13:25.160 --> 0:13:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, if they nailed down the details in it

0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:33.800
<v Speaker 1>looks like the Trump administration absolutely ignored a court order.

0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:38.920
<v Speaker 1>That's a I don't know where you go from there. Yeah,

0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 1>it's uh. Well.

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 2>The good news is Trump and his main lieutenants have

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 2>said we absolutely would not do that. Yeah, Yeah, which

0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.440
<v Speaker 2>is good. Even if they did a little bit, We'll

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:54.000
<v Speaker 2>just have to see the facts really matter in this one.

0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And you are right. There's a big difference between

0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:01.800
<v Speaker 1>if the if they did accidentally on purpose, pushed it

0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.839
<v Speaker 1>too far, the time got too close together, something like that,

0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:08.920
<v Speaker 1>and they're saying, but we wouldn't do that, versus if

0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:11.599
<v Speaker 1>he's out and proud saying courts can't stop me.

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:14.800
<v Speaker 2>I can do anything I want, all right, And the

0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.720
<v Speaker 2>difference between a judge in a hearing saying you guys

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 2>really need to blankety blank and then putting out the

0:14:22.000 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 2>written court order because the Trump administration is resting on

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:30.800
<v Speaker 2>that distinction a little bit. Wow, okay, And I don't

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:32.920
<v Speaker 2>know nearly enough to rule on that.

0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:37.880
<v Speaker 1>From Fox News. Husband of former Squad Rep.

0:14:38.040 --> 0:14:42.400
<v Speaker 4>Corey Bush charged with wirefraud linked to COVID relief funds.

0:14:43.040 --> 0:14:49.680
<v Speaker 2>No way, please place, that's the family business making loud

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:53.640
<v Speaker 2>claims about their great maral duty. And then profiting mightily

0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:57.040
<v Speaker 2>from it. Please a bunch of crooks, enjoy your.

0:14:57.000 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Cage, sir. I hope to get her too. Wow.

0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 4>From the New York Post, Transgender runner blows out competition,

0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:09.160

<v Speaker 4>track meet.

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I saw that in a couple of different races in

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 1>the four hundred he beat all the girls by seven

0:15:16.560 --> 0:15:17.720
<v Speaker 1>seconds or something like that.

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.320
<v Speaker 2>Which is well done, hundred, sir, well done, which in

0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:22.880
<v Speaker 2>the four hundred would be like a quarter of the lap.

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:24.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's a lot.

0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, yeah.

0:15:26.040 --> 0:15:29.600
<v Speaker 2>If that were not a man, that person would be

0:15:29.640 --> 0:15:31.440
<v Speaker 2>hailed as our greatest Olympic hope.

0:15:31.480 --> 0:15:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Since you know whomever flow Joe, what a joke.

0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:40.520
<v Speaker 2>And the people who can't see that that's a joke,

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:42.160
<v Speaker 2>they frighten me.

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:47.240
<v Speaker 1>You are mindless from USA today.

0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:50.480
<v Speaker 4>Venus could make a brief appearance this weekend as it

<v Speaker 4>passes between.

0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 1>The Earth and the Sun. Have I mentioned this on

0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:57.000

0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm when it tells you what everything is. So I've

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:03.920
<v Speaker 1>got one. I love it. It's amazing. But I was

0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:06.000
<v Speaker 1>doing that the other night and you could see that night.

0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:09.600
<v Speaker 1>You could see mars Venus Saturn.

<v Speaker 2>There's another one in there lined up, Kate. You I've

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:17.880

0:16:34.240 --> 0:16:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm getting jokes about people's body parts. I can already

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:41.320

<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, no, no, my god. Yeah, hey, can

0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:57.080
<v Speaker 2>we have one story that's not like in the toilet?

0:16:57.200 --> 0:16:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Please?

0:16:57.880 --> 0:17:00.000

0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:14.480
<v Speaker 1>That is good. I like that to come on. So

0:17:14.520 --> 0:17:15.959
<v Speaker 1>we got clips of the week, and then we got

0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:17.640
<v Speaker 1>to figure out some of the news of the day.

0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.359
<v Speaker 1>Am I supposed to be afraid, very afraid that Elon

0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:23.719
<v Speaker 1>Musk is getting the Chinese war plans and they've got

0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the pictures. I'm elected heed sunglasses and all the pictures

0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:33.800
<v Speaker 1>so scary. Have boiled down two key elements of the

0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:38.439
<v Speaker 1>whole Trump defying judges, whole order story as it's being

0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.480
<v Speaker 1>portrayed in the mainstream media that we have talked about,

0:17:41.520 --> 0:17:44.080
<v Speaker 1>but I'm not sure everybody has heard. So we ought

0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.919
<v Speaker 1>to get into that because this could turn into a

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.680
<v Speaker 1>big story. If the Democrats controlled the House, it'd be

0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:56.720
<v Speaker 1>impeachment talk right now, guaranteed. Yes. Wow. Interesting.

0:17:56.880 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Plus the richest man in the world has taken over

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:04.119
<v Speaker 2>our military. The terrifying details coming up, or reasons to

0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.399
<v Speaker 2>not be worried about it at all, stay with us.

0:18:06.440 --> 0:18:08.199
<v Speaker 2>But first, let's take a fond look back at the

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.960
<v Speaker 2>week that was. It's the Friday tradition, cow clips of

0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.720
<v Speaker 2>the week. Hello strangers.

0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:18.800
<v Speaker 1>It's really come as quite a shock to me. The

0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:19.720
<v Speaker 1>whips of the week.

0:18:21.320 --> 0:18:24.639
<v Speaker 4>Then is Leeland gang members arriving to his country overnight,

0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 4>marching into prison.

0:18:27.359 --> 0:18:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't care what the judges think, I don't care

0:18:29.200 --> 0:18:30.600
<v Speaker 2>the left things we're coming.

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:33.240
<v Speaker 1>I think at a certain point you have to start

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:35.119
<v Speaker 1>looking at what do you do when you have a

0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 1>rogue judge? You The guys are actually at war with Venezuela.

0:18:39.560 --> 0:18:43.080
<v Speaker 5>That nations you're not hearing me, and you're not understanding me.

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:48.080
<v Speaker 5>Is the time of war, and then you'll know that

0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:52.000
<v Speaker 5>I'm with and you'll know that I'm writ The FBI

0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 5>is investigating what it calls a targeted attack shots fired

0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:57.680
<v Speaker 5>at this Tesla dealership in Oregon.

0:18:58.600 --> 0:19:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Tesla's spray painted Massachusetts. Tesla is a peaceful company. We've

0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:07.879
<v Speaker 1>never done anything hawful. Please don't vandalize. Don't ever vandalize

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Tesla vehicles. And so, what's the plan? If Putin doesn't

0:19:13.560 --> 0:19:19.000
<v Speaker 1>agree to a ceasefire? Bad news for this world. Ladimir

0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:22.399
<v Speaker 1>Putin did not agree to the unconditional US backed thirty

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.679
<v Speaker 1>day ceasefire plan. It looks like more than three hundred

0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 1>and fifty people were killed.

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:30.960
<v Speaker 5>This according to the Palestinian health officials in Hamas.

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.640
<v Speaker 2>We cannot have a world with the Ayatolas with their

0:19:34.640 --> 0:19:36.000
<v Speaker 2>finger on the nuclear button.

0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:38.879
<v Speaker 1>Not just the US. We're doing the world a favor.

0:19:39.680 --> 0:19:40.480
<v Speaker 1>It's a little.

0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:44.000
<v Speaker 3>Afternoon on a Friday, And don't you all have jobs?

0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Who are the people?

0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:48.600
<v Speaker 2>First?

0:19:48.600 --> 0:19:50.400
<v Speaker 1>It was Elon Musk with the chainsaw.

0:19:50.480 --> 0:19:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Now President Trump taking a sledgehammer to the Department of Education.

0:19:55.000 --> 0:19:57.359
<v Speaker 1>As a former real estate person, I will tell you.

0:19:57.400 --> 0:19:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I ride through the streets of Washington, and that says

0:19:59.840 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 1>to Department of Education. Department of Education.

0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:07.080
<v Speaker 3>SpaceX Crew ten climbing through the skies above a Falcon

0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:08.920
<v Speaker 3>nine rocket.

0:20:08.640 --> 0:20:11.120
<v Speaker 1>And splash down Crew nine back on Earth.

0:20:13.200 --> 0:20:15.600
<v Speaker 6>You know, we could have done this sooner, but Biden

0:20:15.600 --> 0:20:17.639
<v Speaker 6>didn't want to because he was embarrassed.

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:17.840
<v Speaker 1>By what happened.

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:21.680
<v Speaker 2>I am a firm believer that President Trump UH will

0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:23.560
<v Speaker 2>run and win again in twenty twenty eight.

0:20:24.560 --> 0:20:27.680
<v Speaker 1>We'll say what the definition of term limit is. I'm

0:20:27.680 --> 0:20:28.119
<v Speaker 1>a leader.

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:32.880
<v Speaker 6>I made my money all by myself. How dare your

0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:34.960
<v Speaker 6>government take my money from me? I don't want to

0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:36.960
<v Speaker 6>pay taxes this nation.

0:20:37.760 --> 0:20:41.439
<v Speaker 1>Most of their ass I do happen, HI have money.

0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:44.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm studying. The unseen body in space is a racial exposure,

0:20:44.480 --> 0:20:47.760
<v Speaker 1>theo quird. Do we have jobs for that?

0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:48.400
<v Speaker 6>Yes?

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Called starbucks?

0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:58.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, turbulent times Jack, Speaking of which.

0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:01.840
<v Speaker 1>So you pointed this out yesterday, But I don't think

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.439
<v Speaker 1>this gets mentioned enough. I hadn't heard it until you

0:21:04.480 --> 0:21:08.640
<v Speaker 1>said it, and it doesn't. It doesn't get pointed out

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:14.639
<v Speaker 1>in this story much. So you don't know this. Judge

0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:18.320
<v Speaker 1>says the other day, Hey, you can't send those migrants

0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:20.800
<v Speaker 1>he rounded up back to Venezuela. Just yet, we got

0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to figure something out first, so don't do it, and

0:21:23.520 --> 0:21:26.119
<v Speaker 1>the planes went anyway. Now, the timing of that is

0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:29.720
<v Speaker 1>all important, you know, did the judge make that announcement

0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:32.040
<v Speaker 1>before the plane's left? And all these sorts of things

0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:36.840
<v Speaker 1>need to be figured out. But the implication is in

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:39.240
<v Speaker 1>the mainstream media is certainly willing to go with the

0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:43.040
<v Speaker 1>assumption that the Trump administration, the Trump White House just

0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:48.680
<v Speaker 1>absolutely ignored a federal judge and did whatever they wanted

0:21:48.720 --> 0:21:53.520
<v Speaker 1>to do, which would be a legit constitutional crisis, correct,

0:21:53.800 --> 0:21:59.400
<v Speaker 1>because then who fixes that? But anyway, as you pointed

0:21:59.440 --> 0:22:05.440
<v Speaker 1>out yesterday, it should get mentioned. Every single time, more

0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:11.680
<v Speaker 1>judges have stepped in and stopped Trump's doings than eight

0:22:11.760 --> 0:22:14.639
<v Speaker 1>years of Obama, eight years of Bush, and four years

0:22:14.680 --> 0:22:20.879
<v Speaker 1>of Biden combined. So I mean, it's an outlier of

0:22:20.920 --> 0:22:24.680
<v Speaker 1>an outlier of how often this sort of thing happens,

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:27.520
<v Speaker 1>where a judge steps in and tells the president, no,

0:22:27.600 --> 0:22:31.200
<v Speaker 1>you can't do that. Right. So you got one side saying, well,

0:22:32.040 --> 0:22:34.080
<v Speaker 1>so obviously the judges are out of control. They all

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:38.280
<v Speaker 1>just hate Trump, the other side saying, well, Trump does

0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:40.880
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of crazy s that's why judges are having

0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:43.919
<v Speaker 1>to step in more often. These other presidents didn't do

0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 1>crazy unconstitutional s all the time, right argument, try and

0:22:48.600 --> 0:22:51.520
<v Speaker 1>nail down where that is. But to me, the constitutional

0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:55.560
<v Speaker 1>crist either way, it is a crisis. We've got that.

0:22:56.240 --> 0:22:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Either presidents are going further and further down the road.

0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:01.360
<v Speaker 1>This is absolutely true. But presidents are going further down

0:23:01.400 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>the road of seeing what they can get away with

0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:09.360
<v Speaker 1>around the Constitution and intentionally baiting judges into stopping them

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:11.680
<v Speaker 1>so they can get credit for trying from their base

0:23:12.160 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and blame the judiciary for being out of control. Both

0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:21.520
<v Speaker 1>sides have done it, absolutely and sometimes judges who do

0:23:21.680 --> 0:23:23.760
<v Speaker 1>really hate one side or the other do step in.

0:23:24.200 --> 0:23:27.800
<v Speaker 1>It would seem I don't know how often that happens.

0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you do have the situation with that Ninth

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:32.720
<v Speaker 1>Circuit Court, and you know out on the West Coast

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:34.760
<v Speaker 1>that gets overturned like what is it eighty percent of

0:23:34.800 --> 0:23:38.560
<v Speaker 1>the time. Clearly their politics are wacky or whatever that is.

0:23:38.600 --> 0:23:40.840
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, if you're an outlier like that, then

0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:45.560
<v Speaker 1>you get so. But this is a bit of a crisis.

0:23:46.560 --> 0:23:48.360
<v Speaker 2>It is just to flesh that out a little bit.

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Here's the headline federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from

0:23:52.240 --> 0:23:54.840
<v Speaker 2>reclaiming billion dollar climate grants.

0:23:55.160 --> 0:23:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Those horrific, utterly criminal.

0:23:58.920 --> 0:24:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Graft, just stealing and handing out to your crony's taxpayer

0:24:04.040 --> 0:24:07.440
<v Speaker 2>money grants from the Biden administration. The EPA is trying

0:24:07.440 --> 0:24:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to get the money back, and good old Judge Tanya

0:24:10.040 --> 0:24:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Chutkin of the U. S. District Court in the District

0:24:12.920 --> 0:24:16.640
<v Speaker 2>of Columbia, her name should be familiar to you from

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:21.399
<v Speaker 2>one of the Trump Big Trump cases, said no.

0:24:20.880 --> 0:24:22.680
<v Speaker 1>No, no, it's too vague.

0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 2>Vague references to programmatic who waste, fraud and abuse, conflicts

0:24:27.320 --> 0:24:31.160
<v Speaker 2>of interest, but not enough specific information about the investigations.

0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:34.959
<v Speaker 2>This is insufficient. You can't claw the money back, not yet.

0:24:35.119 --> 0:24:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Anyway.

0:24:35.600 --> 0:24:38.120
<v Speaker 2>It was kind of a weight let's wait and sort

0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:40.719
<v Speaker 2>this out ruling. It wasn't a complete quashing of it.

0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:44.720
<v Speaker 2>But so that's another setback from a judge. But the

0:24:44.800 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 2>numbers are amazing. In Bush, there were six George w

0:24:51.760 --> 0:24:56.159
<v Speaker 2>six total injunctions by federal judges against something they were

0:24:56.200 --> 0:24:59.040
<v Speaker 2>trying to do. Half of them were issued by a

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:02.560
<v Speaker 2>judge appointed by the president of the opposing party. Okay,

0:25:02.800 --> 0:25:05.560
<v Speaker 2>so it is fifty percent under Obama, it was a

0:25:05.600 --> 0:25:10.760
<v Speaker 2>total of twelve and fifty eight percent were by the

0:25:10.840 --> 0:25:16.440
<v Speaker 2>other party appointed judges. Okay, Trump's first term, we went

0:25:16.480 --> 0:25:21.200
<v Speaker 2>from twelve to sixty four, and fifty nine of those

0:25:21.240 --> 0:25:24.000
<v Speaker 2>were issued by a judge of the opposing party. That's

0:25:24.080 --> 0:25:28.000
<v Speaker 2>over ninety two percent of the injunctions. Then, when Biden

0:25:28.119 --> 0:25:30.320
<v Speaker 2>was in office, and I think there's a pretty good

0:25:30.359 --> 0:25:34.880
<v Speaker 2>explanation for this, there were just fourteen total injunctions, all

0:25:35.040 --> 0:25:40.199
<v Speaker 2>fourteen of them by Republican appointed judges. And then Trump's

0:25:40.440 --> 0:25:44.280
<v Speaker 2>what are we up to with Trump? I thought I

0:25:44.359 --> 0:25:46.960
<v Speaker 2>had that number, but it's following in a similar trend.

0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:50.760
<v Speaker 2>In fact, it's even hotter and heavier twelve nationwide. No,

0:25:50.840 --> 0:25:54.480
<v Speaker 2>that's Obama anyway, the trend is continuing in the Trump administration.

0:25:54.560 --> 0:25:58.280
<v Speaker 2>Many many, many injunctions, and the vast, vast majority of

0:25:58.320 --> 0:26:00.639
<v Speaker 2>them by judges appointed by Democrats.

0:26:00.680 --> 0:26:06.720
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's a really bad look now on this, sorry,

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:11.479
<v Speaker 1>on this most recent one, the one that's getting all

0:26:11.480 --> 0:26:16.040
<v Speaker 1>the attention with the you know, supposed gang members on

0:26:16.080 --> 0:26:19.600
<v Speaker 1>the plane being flown back home. That judge was appointed

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:23.760
<v Speaker 1>by Roberts. My correct about that, including Roberts had put

0:26:23.760 --> 0:26:26.159
<v Speaker 1>this guy on the FISA Court, which you would have

0:26:26.240 --> 0:26:30.200
<v Speaker 1>to assume that Chief Justice Roberts wouldn't choose some whack

0:26:30.320 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 1>job for the FISA Court. Man. Once maybe we're already

0:26:39.080 --> 0:26:41.639
<v Speaker 1>we might already be there, but once we're to the

0:26:41.720 --> 0:26:46.720
<v Speaker 1>point where we we perceive judges to be no different

0:26:46.760 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 1>than House members or senators, you just vote your party,

0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 1>we're in a bad spot. I would agree. Uh.

0:26:53.080 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 2>The constitutional issue at stake, which we talked about at

0:26:56.080 --> 0:26:58.640
<v Speaker 2>fair length yesterday I think I think it was yesterday,

0:26:59.280 --> 0:27:01.560
<v Speaker 2>is that you have a federal District Court judge who

0:27:01.560 --> 0:27:04.359
<v Speaker 2>has a very narrow jurisdiction. It's a very small area

0:27:04.440 --> 0:27:08.080
<v Speaker 2>of land that they deal with federal law in that area.

0:27:08.200 --> 0:27:10.760
<v Speaker 2>And you can have that judge, who you knows, the

0:27:10.760 --> 0:27:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Eastern District of Maryland or whatever, halt the presidential administration,

0:27:15.880 --> 0:27:20.080
<v Speaker 2>the executive branch from doing something nationwide, and it's not

0:27:20.400 --> 0:27:25.040
<v Speaker 2>constrained in the way judges jurisdiction usually is with who's

0:27:25.040 --> 0:27:27.280
<v Speaker 2>got standing in the rest of it. They're just issuing

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:31.280
<v Speaker 2>these injunctions. Willy Nilly and Ben Weingarten, who is an

0:27:31.400 --> 0:27:34.720
<v Speaker 2>editor for The Federalist, says there's a credible case to

0:27:34.760 --> 0:27:37.240
<v Speaker 2>be made that any one of the around seven hundred

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.919
<v Speaker 2>District Court judges possesses more power than anyone Supreme Court justice,

0:27:42.119 --> 0:27:48.120
<v Speaker 2>given their unilateral power to issue a universal injunction. I'm sorry,

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:50.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm stumbling over my words like a like a drunk,

0:27:51.000 --> 0:27:55.320
<v Speaker 2>like Kamala Harris. Anyway, we'll have to keep an eye

0:27:55.400 --> 0:27:58.440
<v Speaker 2>on this. This topic will not go away. Well, god,

0:27:58.480 --> 0:27:59.080
<v Speaker 2>I'd say not.

0:27:59.440 --> 0:28:02.080
<v Speaker 1>It could ex blowed into one of the biggest political

0:28:02.119 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 1>topics ever depending on what facts get laid out.

0:28:06.160 --> 0:28:08.080
<v Speaker 2>So I thought we were going to dive into the

0:28:08.080 --> 0:28:09.880
<v Speaker 2>Elon Musk thing, but we're out of time. We will

0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.040
<v Speaker 2>hit that at the top of our two But the

0:28:12.480 --> 0:28:15.360
<v Speaker 2>headline story in Wall Street Journal and the New York Times,

0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:18.800
<v Speaker 2>which is notable, is that Elon Musk, the unelected elot,

0:28:18.880 --> 0:28:21.360
<v Speaker 2>he's the richest man of the world, track is going

0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:24.600
<v Speaker 2>to receive a top secret briefing on the US war

0:28:24.720 --> 0:28:29.080
<v Speaker 2>plans for China. According to two US officials, the Pentagon says,

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:32.960
<v Speaker 2>wait what, No, he's not. We'll try to bring you

0:28:33.000 --> 0:28:36.880
<v Speaker 2>something close to the truth. Or who's saying what?

0:28:36.880 --> 0:28:40.000
<v Speaker 1>What is it? A constitutional christ? No? No, it's not. No.

0:28:40.160 --> 0:28:45.960
<v Speaker 1>What is the implication that he has become a quasi king?

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Dictator, rich guy advisor thing. But no, they always leave

0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 2>that vague and unspoken. Be afraid, be very afraid of

0:28:54.240 --> 0:28:58.680
<v Speaker 2>what exactly he's just elected, Like ninety nine percent of

0:28:58.720 --> 0:29:00.480
<v Speaker 2>the executive branch is an elect He's.

0:29:00.360 --> 0:29:03.720
<v Speaker 1>The richest man of the world. It's okay, Well he's

0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 1>done well.

0:29:04.280 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, if I was advising Elon, and when you're the

0:29:08.520 --> 0:29:11.080
<v Speaker 2>world's richest men, you don't have anybody advise you. You

0:29:11.080 --> 0:29:12.000
<v Speaker 2>do whatever the hell you want.

0:29:13.000 --> 0:29:15.120
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry a fool in that case. You gotta have

0:29:15.120 --> 0:29:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a good advisors. Don't wear the dark maga hat and

0:29:17.640 --> 0:29:20.480
<v Speaker 1>the aviator sunglasses. I mean, I like the look. I

0:29:20.520 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 1>think it's very cool, but it just leans into the

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:28.080
<v Speaker 1>left's perception of you some sort of scary oligarch and

0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:32.520
<v Speaker 1>to be fair, because fairness is my hallmark, Michael, isn't it? Yes?

0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:33.600
<v Speaker 1>It is? Yeah, I guess so.

0:29:36.840 --> 0:29:40.040
<v Speaker 2>Is that if indeed this story is true, and it's

0:29:40.040 --> 0:29:43.320
<v Speaker 2>not clear that it is. Elon does have some substantial

0:29:43.360 --> 0:29:46.560
<v Speaker 2>conflicts of interest when it comes to China.

0:29:47.080 --> 0:29:49.840
<v Speaker 1>So you wanted Kamala Harris to be president? Okay? Oh Lord,

0:29:49.880 --> 0:29:57.760
<v Speaker 1>see where you are? Joe's a mailbag next stair. Utah

0:29:58.080 --> 0:30:02.920
<v Speaker 1>University upset Texas State, so my rackets ruined. I thought

0:30:02.960 --> 0:30:03.920
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna win this year.

0:30:04.640 --> 0:30:11.240
<v Speaker 2>So sorry, I am bracketless. Here's your freedom loving quote

0:30:11.240 --> 0:30:15.360
<v Speaker 2>of the day, continuing our series from Theodore Roosevelt.

0:30:17.040 --> 0:30:18.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm beginning to.

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Understand as we go through these quotes how ROOSEVELTI, in

0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:23.800
<v Speaker 2>my thinking, is in a lot of ways. You've been

0:30:23.800 --> 0:30:25.920
<v Speaker 2>hearing this from us for years and years. We've been

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:29.120
<v Speaker 2>listening for years and years. Order without liberty and liberty

0:30:29.160 --> 0:30:33.880
<v Speaker 2>without order are equally destructive. We've been saying, as we

0:30:33.960 --> 0:30:38.960
<v Speaker 2>watched the Blue states of America crumble California and Oregon,

0:30:39.120 --> 0:30:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Washington stay most notably, that order without compassion is brutality,

0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:51.800
<v Speaker 2>but compassion without order is chaos seems anyway, And in

0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:55.719
<v Speaker 2>a similar vein obedience of the law is demanded, not asked,

0:30:55.760 --> 0:30:59.719
<v Speaker 2>as a favor. Keep that in mind, Gavin you Tutts

0:31:00.400 --> 0:31:03.760
<v Speaker 2>mailbag drop us an o mailbag at armstrong e getdy

0:31:03.800 --> 0:31:09.240
<v Speaker 2>dot com. Speaking of beautiful Washington State, Chuck from Vancouver writes, guys,

0:31:09.240 --> 0:31:10.880
<v Speaker 2>we need your help on getting the word out on

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:15.000
<v Speaker 2>the planned attack on home schoolers states Illinois and Washington

0:31:15.040 --> 0:31:17.640
<v Speaker 2>to name a few. We actually talked about Illinois yesterday.

0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:19.880
<v Speaker 2>I think it might have been hour four. But Washington's

0:31:20.160 --> 0:31:24.120
<v Speaker 2>state too, notably, are passing laws to go after homeschoolers.

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.960
<v Speaker 2>With public schools agendas geared more for critical race theory

0:31:27.960 --> 0:31:31.360
<v Speaker 2>and wokeness and students drastically failing, many parents are opting

0:31:31.400 --> 0:31:34.720
<v Speaker 2>for homeschooling. Now Democrats are attacking these homeschoolers with jail

0:31:34.720 --> 0:31:37.720
<v Speaker 2>tim and fines if they don't meet their standards. Well,

0:31:37.720 --> 0:31:40.960
<v Speaker 2>we've got convoluted and to take hours and hours and

0:31:41.040 --> 0:31:42.760
<v Speaker 2>hours of compliance in mores.

0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:45.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing a version of homeschooling, and I'm paying a

0:31:45.320 --> 0:31:48.240
<v Speaker 1>guy a lot of money for a couple of hours

0:31:48.280 --> 0:31:53.520
<v Speaker 1>of just paperwork per week to meet the requirements. That's

0:31:53.840 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>never what they're trying to do. I would never be

0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:57.080
<v Speaker 1>able to get it done on my own.

0:31:57.520 --> 0:31:59.760
<v Speaker 2>The teachers' unions are trying to make it so painful

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:04.000
<v Speaker 2>and humbersome to homeschool in any setting, in any format,

0:32:04.160 --> 0:32:07.000
<v Speaker 2>that you can't do it anymore. It is a brutal

0:32:07.360 --> 0:32:13.000
<v Speaker 2>and shameless attack on liberty. Moving along, Dirk's a German

0:32:13.040 --> 0:32:16.080
<v Speaker 2>with a comment on Chuck Schumer's statement the other.

0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:18.320
<v Speaker 6>Day, Michael, do we have that handy I made my

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:21.760
<v Speaker 6>money all by myself. How dare your government take my

0:32:21.880 --> 0:32:23.640
<v Speaker 6>money from me? I don't want to pay taxes?

0:32:24.720 --> 0:32:27.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, the government deserves all of your money. They

0:32:27.880 --> 0:32:31.480
<v Speaker 2>may let you keep a little in Chuck Schumer's world.

0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.120
<v Speaker 2>It's tough not to say naughty words on the air

0:32:34.120 --> 0:32:36.760
<v Speaker 2>in response to that. But when Chuck Schumer alluded to

0:32:36.960 --> 0:32:39.320
<v Speaker 2>that money is the governments, not taxpayers, it made me

0:32:39.360 --> 0:32:41.920
<v Speaker 2>think it's not just that the government takes our money,

0:32:41.920 --> 0:32:43.760
<v Speaker 2>but what they do or don't do with it. We

0:32:43.840 --> 0:32:46.400
<v Speaker 2>pay more for student to educate quote unquote our students

0:32:46.400 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 2>than any nation, but score at the bottom of math

0:32:48.320 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 2>and reading. In California, we pay the highest gas taxes,

0:32:52.040 --> 0:32:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Dirk writes, but our roads are like Albania's. We paid

0:32:55.040 --> 0:32:58.320
<v Speaker 2>loads of local taxes, feeds, fees, fines, and levies get

0:32:58.320 --> 0:32:59.560
<v Speaker 2>their hobos living.

0:32:59.320 --> 0:33:01.120
<v Speaker 1>On the sidewalk outside my office.

0:33:01.320 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 2>At least in Europe, the government fleeces the tax bearers

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:05.400
<v Speaker 2>but gives them something of value in return.

0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Amen for that to that, Dirk. That Chuck Schumer clip

0:33:10.320 --> 0:33:14.480
<v Speaker 1>is so freaking maddening. Oh yeah, oh it is contempt.

0:33:14.760 --> 0:33:18.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, for anybody who suggests, you know, I earned that

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:19.720
<v Speaker 2>money I'm willing to contribute.

0:33:20.040 --> 0:33:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Why are you taking half of my money?

0:33:22.880 --> 0:33:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Especially people who are in sales or something like that

0:33:25.320 --> 0:33:27.440
<v Speaker 2>that are gonna have one or two good years, maybe

0:33:27.440 --> 0:33:30.480
<v Speaker 2>home run years, then going back to just making ok living. Nope,

0:33:30.560 --> 0:33:33.200
<v Speaker 2>those two great years where they excelled. No, the government's

0:33:33.200 --> 0:33:35.400
<v Speaker 2>going to take half of that or damn near it.

0:33:35.720 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 6>I made my money all by myself. How dare your

0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 6>government take my money from me? I don't want to

0:33:40.920 --> 0:33:42.520
<v Speaker 6>pay taxes from.

0:33:42.360 --> 0:33:45.680
<v Speaker 2>A guy who made his living through graft his entire life.

0:33:45.760 --> 0:33:48.320
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't agree with me, I'm gonna act

0:33:48.360 --> 0:33:49.920
<v Speaker 1>like you talk like a cartoon.

0:33:49.560 --> 0:33:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Bear JKA, fair fair point JK and granted Bay California rights.

0:33:55.360 --> 0:33:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Read the district court judges, we must be wary of

0:33:57.720 --> 0:34:01.080
<v Speaker 2>asking that they be stifled completely. While their district court

0:34:01.160 --> 0:34:04.040
<v Speaker 2>judges stop issues they object to, like immigration, doge other

0:34:04.040 --> 0:34:07.880
<v Speaker 2>Maggie issues, are district court judges stop issues we object to,

0:34:08.000 --> 0:34:10.680
<v Speaker 2>like the curtailment of Second Amendment rights. In other words,

0:34:10.719 --> 0:34:12.640
<v Speaker 2>the dcjs may be a pain in the ass, but

0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:14.799
<v Speaker 2>the knife cuts both ways. There needs to be a

0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:17.960
<v Speaker 2>better definition of their jurisdiction and ability to block issues

0:34:18.000 --> 0:34:22.600
<v Speaker 2>nationwide from their narrow perch. That's exactly correct. Yeah, JK.

0:34:22.760 --> 0:34:24.879
<v Speaker 2>Friend of Armstrong and Getty since the beginning. Keep it real,

0:34:24.960 --> 0:34:27.880
<v Speaker 2>Jance ms Green a fantastic addition to the team. Agreed,

0:34:29.840 --> 0:34:33.120
<v Speaker 2>Do we have time for this frequent correspondent JT and Livermore.

0:34:33.320 --> 0:34:35.480
<v Speaker 2>During Tuesday show, you brought up the attempt to classify

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.719
<v Speaker 2>Trump derangement syndrome as a recognized mental disorder. I don't

0:34:38.719 --> 0:34:40.279
<v Speaker 2>know if it's a mental disorder or not, but it

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:43.080
<v Speaker 2>seems to have jumped the shark over previous opposition efforts

0:34:43.120 --> 0:34:45.680
<v Speaker 2>by the Dems. Unlike their crazy stunts in the past,

0:34:45.960 --> 0:34:49.239
<v Speaker 2>Dems suffer FROMTDS. Have gone so far that they are

0:34:49.360 --> 0:34:51.360
<v Speaker 2>more of danger to themselves than they are to the

0:34:51.400 --> 0:34:54.439
<v Speaker 2>gop R Trump. Consider that they've rallied around the wrong

0:34:54.520 --> 0:34:56.400
<v Speaker 2>end of several eighty twenty issues.

0:34:56.560 --> 0:34:57.839
<v Speaker 1>They're suddenly funding like hell.

0:34:57.800 --> 0:35:00.319
<v Speaker 2>To prevent the lawful deportation of illegals that have been

0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:03.880
<v Speaker 2>convicted of murder, rape, and child molestation. They're fighting to

0:35:03.960 --> 0:35:07.600
<v Speaker 2>keep graphic gay sex books in school libraries, demanding that

0:35:07.640 --> 0:35:11.240
<v Speaker 2>liberals be allowed to secretly help trans children without notifying parents.

0:35:11.440 --> 0:35:13.600
<v Speaker 2>They're against the notion of cutting a single dollar from

0:35:13.640 --> 0:35:16.120
<v Speaker 2>the federal budget, even as tens of billions of dollars

0:35:16.160 --> 0:35:18.920
<v Speaker 2>in waste for an abuse have been uncovered. They're ready

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:21.840
<v Speaker 2>to die on the Hill of Men and Women's Sports.

0:35:22.920 --> 0:35:26.560
<v Speaker 1>Agreed. We got all those stories Joe mentioned to get

0:35:26.600 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 1>to an hour or two and hours of all we're

0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:31.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna do six hours today. I think that's planned if

0:35:31.360 --> 0:35:33.600
<v Speaker 1>you missed a segment of the podcast Armstrong and Getty

0:35:33.680 --> 0:35:37.880
<v Speaker 1>on demand Armstrong and Getty
