1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty.

3
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 2: Armstrong and and he Armstrong and Eddy.

4
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 3: Protests here in Minneapolis are peaceful. We had I don't know,

5
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 3: ten thousand or so people that were protesting and marching yesterday,

6
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:37,879
Speaker 3: and virtually all of it was very peaceful expression of

7
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 3: First Amendment rights.

8
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: You're you're back, You're back, You're back.

9
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 1: Yes, Mayor Fry explaining how everything's peaceful and fine, and

10
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: then natural sound from the streets where chaos and anger

11
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: and violence was raining. Yeah.

12
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: I don't like the direction this stuff is going.

13
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 4: Uh, and don't you assume it's going to get worse

14
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 4: than there's going to be more of these, That's what

15
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 4: I I.

16
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: Don't see anything that would indicate otherwise.

17
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 4: So anyway, I wish I had the name of who

18
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 4: tweeted this out pretty good. I'm sorry, I can't give

19
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 4: you your name, whoever tweeted this. I'm a mother, so

20
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 4: I'm going to comment right now. I will say this

21
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 4: exactly the way a mother thinks it raw, direct and

22
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 4: without pretending this is complicated. A thirty seven year old woman,

23
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 4: three kids, middle of a work week. The father of

24
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 4: those children is dead. She's the only parent left. The

25
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 4: one job she has above every cause, every protest, every

26
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 4: headline is getting home door kids.

27
00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: What's she doing instead? She's out of state.

28
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 4: Other reports claim she lives there in the street, inner car,

29
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,520
Speaker 4: blocking federal agents who are doing their job.

30
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 2: Not alone.

31
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 4: Her partner is right there filming her like this is

32
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 4: some brave little documentary moment around them, sirens blaring, people yelling,

33
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 4: pure chaos, manufactured chaos so agents can't do their lawful job.

34
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 2: Her window is down.

35
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 4: She hears the orders, she understands the orders, She ignores

36
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 4: the orders. She then puts the car in reverse, still

37
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 4: doesn't comply. Then she puts it in drive, not park.

38
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 4: She moves forward into the agent. That's not confusion, that's

39
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 4: not panic. That's decision after decision after decision. Now put

40
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 4: yourself in the agent's shoes for half a second. A

41
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 4: driver is already in an unlawful act, refusing commands in

42
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: a hostile, chaotic, loud scene, and now the driver uses

43
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 4: a vehicle to move toward you. You gotta split second.

44
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 4: You don't get the luxury of maybe she's just stressed.

45
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 4: You have to assume the worst. You have to think

46
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 4: of protecting other people, like the partner at the window,

47
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 4: because if you assume the best and you're wrong, you

48
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 4: don't get to go home, or someone else doesn't get

49
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: to go home. So the agent fires after she makes

50
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 4: an intentional and aggressive move toward him, because he has

51
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 4: no idea what her intentions are, and she just demonstrated

52
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 4: she's willing to escalate. Now, imagine her three kids at school,

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 4: sitting there like any other day, not knowing their mother

54
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 4: is out playing street hero games for criminals in the

55
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 4: middle of a work week, with the two adults responsible

56
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 4: for them. She didn't think about them. She didn't think

57
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 4: if I get arrested, who picks my babies up? She

58
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 4: didn't think if I get hurt, who raises them. She

59
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 4: didn't think if I die, they'd have nobody. She thought

60
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 4: about protecting the criminals. I guess she's talking about the

61
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 4: illegals in this case. Yeah, she thought about interfering with

62
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 4: federal agents. She thought about the cameras, She thought about

63
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 4: the crowd, She thought about the moment. There's no amount

64
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 4: of evidence, money, tears on TV or news spin that

65
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 4: can make this make sense as a mother, nothing about

66
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: this makes sense.

67
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: Well, and she left out the smug glee that both

68
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: the dead woman and her partner were showing how much

69
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: they were enjoying all of it. Oh yeah, man speaks

70
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: really to the psychology and the lack of grounding in

71
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: reality their activities.

72
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 2: They're LARPing, they're live action role playing. The grounding and

73
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: reality is right.

74
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 4: The way her partner is asking, come on, big boy,

75
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: you better get a sandwich.

76
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: You're gonna be here a while.

77
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 4: That is never the way you should be dealing with

78
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 4: people who have guns and the ability to kill you

79
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 4: if things go sideways. I mean, no smart person does that.

80
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,720
Speaker 4: I mean, go back and watch the Civil rights era.

81
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 4: People who are up against you know, authority, bad authority.

82
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 4: In this case, they didn't talk that way, and they

83
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,799
Speaker 4: talked in measured tones about their what they're trying to accomplish,

84
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 4: and why they were on the right side.

85
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 2: You don't do that, Hey, big boy, you better get

86
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: yourself a lunch. You're gonna be here a while.

87
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,160
Speaker 1: That's you better feed that German shepherd if he's gonna

88
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: come and bite me.

89
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 2: No, you didn't hear. No, that's a dumb way to

90
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 2: handle this. Situation.

91
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 4: Back to this briefly, as a mother, nothing about this

92
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 4: makes sense at minimum machine where actions could get her

93
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 4: arrested at minimum, and she still chose it. She chose strangers,

94
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 4: she chose chaos, she chose lawlessness. I agree, man, what

95
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 4: kind of belief do you haven't a cause where you're

96
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 4: willing to go to that length where well, I might

97
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 4: spend the next couple of days in jail at like

98
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 4: best when I got a couple of kids, though.

99
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 2: How am I going to live my life?

100
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 5: This is nuts?

101
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: Who does that? Hardcore activists?

102
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 1: You're weird. Just because your hardcore doesn't mean you're right.

103
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: I think it's worth throwing in this from the extremely

104
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: reasonable definitely not very trumpy, Sarah is ger I thought

105
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: this was important forty six please, Michael.

106
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 6: Fifteen percent or so of in the line deaths are

107
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 6: caused by cars. Every officer is trained to avoid the

108
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 6: danger of a vehicle. There's no question you shouldn't have

109
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 6: been in front of that vehicle at that time. But

110
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 6: the Supreme Court has also said we look to the

111
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 6: totality of circumstances, including the fact that in that moment

112
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 6: he was in front of the vehicle, as that vehicle

113
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 6: is moving so legally. I think it is a relatively

114
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 6: clear case once it gets to federal court.

115
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 4: Wow of assault with a deadly weapon, Yeah, yeah. And

116
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 4: the whole she's there to support criminals. There's people being

117
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 4: drug off by ICE agents and situations that I don't

118
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 4: find good. I mean, originally when this whole started, the

119
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 4: thing started, it was the idea of we got a

120
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 4: bunch of rapists and murderers and all kinds of law

121
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 4: breakers here, gang bangers, gang bangers, that we need to

122
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,159
Speaker 4: get out of the country here illegally. Almost everybody's for that,

123
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 4: and then it comes down to are we going to

124
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 4: arrest people who their only crime is there here illegally?

125
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: Some of you agree, Man, that gets that gets pretty

126
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 4: ugly pretty fast, since we've baked it into our societies

127
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 4: so much over so many decades.

128
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: Well, and as we've discussed earlier in the show, to

129
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: do it with maximum confrontation and abrasiveness, as opposed to,

130
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 1: you know, President Joe Getty would say, all right, let's

131
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: accomplish this with as little like stirring up resistance as

132
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: we can. Let's do this quietly and in a dignified way,

133
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: because that way we'll be more effective. But instead and

134
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: the Trump administration, Trump himself likes to whip things up.

135
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 2: He enjoys that.

136
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 4: But man, not helping the whole activist crowd thing that,

137
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 4: you know, kind of old joke that we do on

138
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: the right of You know, we all can't protest because

139
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 4: we all have jobs or kids to raise. We don't

140
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 4: have time to go down there and do that. Here's

141
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 4: somebody who has kids to raise, had things to do.

142
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 4: I can't even imagine. I got so many.

143
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: Things to do with a couple of kids today in

144
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 2: my job. I know what I'll do.

145
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 4: I'll go put myself in a position where I'm likely

146
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 4: to get arrested and have to go through that whole hassle.

147
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 4: I mean another state, so I'm a long way away

148
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: from my family anyway.

149
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 2: Who good does that?

150
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: You know, your point about the civil rights movement and

151
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: how you never saw that sort of smugness and taunting

152
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 1: and all. That's because I think that goes back to

153
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: the whole question of LARPing. They were playing the brave revolutionary,

154
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: but on their face it wasn't like a give me

155
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: liberty or give me death sort of transcendent courage. It

156
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:31,559
Speaker 1: was that they the two gals, thought they won't do anything. Right,

157
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: we get to do this all day long and nobody

158
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: will ever do anything, so we can have it both ways.

159
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 2: You know what. It like the brave campus revolutionaries.

160
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 4: It reminds me of, on a much stupider level, the

161
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 4: people who taught athletes at games because they think they

162
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,560
Speaker 4: can't do anything to me. So I can say absolutely

163
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 4: anything I want to this guy russe celebrities. I can

164
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 4: say anything I want because they can't and pretend that

165
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 4: I'm such a tough guy. I'll get in the face

166
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 4: of a six foot four inch two hundred and forty

167
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 4: pounds linebacker and telling me sucks at his job because

168
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 4: I'm sitting here safe.

169
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 2: He can't do anything. Yeah, yeah, you're right. It's similar week.

170
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: It's a week it is. Indeed, we need more community organizers.

171
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 4: Remember Barack Obama was that, and a lot of people

172
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 4: would make jokes about that. We need more organizing in

173
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 4: communities for causes and laws and legislation, the slow process

174
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 4: of the way a democracy works. You don't like our

175
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,360
Speaker 4: immigration laws or the way things are. You got to organize.

176
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 4: You got to get this all together. You got to vote,

177
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 4: You got to vote people in who believe the same way,

178
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 4: and over time you win the issue. Not I'm going

179
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: to park my car in front of the agents so

180
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 4: they can't do it and then.

181
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 2: Berate them, right.

182
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: Or or I mean, my god, at least you know

183
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: it's misguided, it's stupid, it's dangerous, and it interferes with

184
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: law enforcement. But at least it's not like the hashtag

185
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: active some of the keyboard warrior who doesn't.

186
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 2: Do anything or risk anything.

187
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,600
Speaker 1: But everybody is so desperate for a purpose for their lives.

188
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 1: And this is absolutely and everybody knows this related to

189
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 1: the going away of civic organizations and family, well, religion

190
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: and family more than anything. If you don't have those

191
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 1: things going for you're desperate for a purpose for your life,

192
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: so you go find one and radicalize yourself, like the

193
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: kids who end up shooting people. Talked about that at

194
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 1: fear length. The fact that this gal had three kids.

195
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 2: I think it was.

196
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: By you know, a handful of different relationships. It doesn't matter,

197
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: you know, life has its ups and downs. But the

198
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: fact that she was still looking for a purpose in

199
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 1: her life, and that purpose was I'm a radical lefty activist.

200
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 2: You're right, it.

201
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 4: Doesn't matter her situation with kids and a couple of

202
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: dudes she married then became a lesbian, married a woman,

203
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 4: or the fact that she's a poet.

204
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 2: None of that matters.

205
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 4: But if the media is gonna every single time they

206
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 4: mention her name, say a mother of three, Okay, you're

207
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 4: playing the game.

208
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 2: You're trying to.

209
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: Get sympathy out of this, Well, then I get to

210
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 4: fill in some of the holes that make it not

211
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 4: as sympathetic. Why do we leave it out because it's irrelevant.

212
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,440
Speaker 4: It's not relevant to whether whether or not the thrice

213
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 4: married lesbian poets. Right, I don't think that's fair. But

214
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 4: if you're gonna go with the mother of three, okay, you.

215
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: Start magicling man, the little league coach, you started this game,

216
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: or we could.

217
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,199
Speaker 2: Just leave it out because I don't get to.

218
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 4: Shoot you just for no reason, no matter what, no

219
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 4: matter how many marriages you have, whether you like poetry

220
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 4: or not. You know what, I'm roilling to grant my

221
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 4: favorite lesbian poets a couple of marriages, But once they

222
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 4: hit that third one, I'm through with you.

223
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,439
Speaker 2: That's enough. You've tired me out, You've lost all gravitas.

224
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 4: Sure, any thoughts on this text line four one five

225
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 4: two nine five KFTC.

226
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: Mayor Mom Donnie appointed in New York City's first lesbian,

227
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: first ever lesbian fire chief. Finally they figured out a

228
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: way to beat the cops at softball.

229
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 3: Wow.

230
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 4: Gutfeld's on the triggeronometry podcast, if anybody's familiar with that,

231
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 4: talking about how many times they tried to cancel him

232
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 4: and he finally just decided to do whatever he wanted

233
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 4: and that's when he got mostly successful. But I might

234
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 4: listen to that because he's an interesting story in terms

235
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 4: of his show becoming popular.

236
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

237
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, just came across this from Gallup Pole.

238
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 2: This is pretty big. Gallup Pole shows that.

239
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,640
Speaker 4: Now almost half we're just on the cusp of half

240
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 4: of Americans now identify as independent, not wanting to be

241
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 4: called a Republican or a Democrat. The two parties are

242
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 4: in a dead eight at twenty seven percent each. Half

243
00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 4: the countries like I don't want to be have my

244
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 4: name attached with either one of those places.

245
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: If I were to design a test case for the duopoly,

246
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: that is the Democrats and Republicans in Washington, well across

247
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,719
Speaker 1: their whole country, practically this would be it. Let's make

248
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,320
Speaker 1: them less and less and less popular and see if

249
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: anything new emerges, or if they can just hold on

250
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: to power through the means that you know we've been

251
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: talking about for a long time. I mean, wouldn't you

252
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: think if it were like soft drinks or burger joints or.

253
00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 2: Virtually anything that, or even like freaking.

254
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: Libraries, if you had a couple of them and they

255
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: both sucked and nobody liked them, well, relatively speaking, nobody,

256
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: wouldn't something new emerge in virtually every market.

257
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 4: Well, let's stick with the library. Then can we do

258
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 4: restaurants just because library? There's two restaurants. Yeah, half of

259
00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 4: people don't like either restaurant, but there are only two restaurants,

260
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 4: and I do prefer one of the restaurants way more

261
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,480
Speaker 4: than the other restaurant.

262
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 2: Sure, that's what the situation is.

263
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:15,239
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, but no, no, no, I am slapping

264
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: the meal of ignorance out of your.

265
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 2: Hands as you attempted. I was enjoying the metaphor anyway.

266
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: But here's the here's my question, here's what I'm driving in.

267
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,680
Speaker 1: I probably did it poorly, So you have that level

268
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: of dissatisfaction with the two restaurants. Yet those two restaurants

269
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 1: have a way to prevent any third restaurants.

270
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 4: Yah, I'm making the assumption that there will not be

271
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 4: more than two restaurants because that's just the way it is.

272
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: How come that's just the way it is doesn't work?

273
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: I mean, how.

274
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 4: They worked the zoning laws or something like the way

275
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 4: Republicans and Democrats have worked the congressional seats to where

276
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 4: they guarantee something like ninety percent of them will stay

277
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 4: in the hands of the hours of these and they

278
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 4: fight over a tiny a portion of the others.

279
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: And the exhausting laws for getting on the ballot in

280
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: a lot of places. Yeah, those are both excellent places. Yeah,

281
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: that's what I was driving at. Let's talk a little

282
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: bit about the mechanisms they used to ensure that they're

283
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: two sucky sucky parties continue in power.

284
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: And I guess the part where we put up with

285
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 4: it is that we call ourselves independence a lot of

286
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,240
Speaker 4: us because we don't want to be attached to the party.

287
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 4: But I'm still gonna mostly vote that party because when

288
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 4: it comes down to a binary choice, are you freaking

289
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 4: getting me?

290
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 2: You know what I'm gonna do.

291
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take to the streets and start blocking the

292
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: vehicles of law enforcement.

293
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 2: No, I'm not gonna do that because that's effing stupid.

294
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, well so, I don't know, But the smart people

295
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 4: should spend time talking about what legislative reform could happen,

296
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 4: or structural reform of some sort, because if you've got

297
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 4: half the country that doesn't want to call itself either party,

298
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 4: there should be a way to get a new restaurant.

299
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 4: We shouldn't be choosing for the rest of our lives

300
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 4: between fish and chicken because they rigged the system.

301
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 2: If some of us want hamburgers, yes, and we do.

302
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 1: Uh So, coming up, the Supreme Court is soon to

303
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: unleash what I pray will be the bud. He's a

304
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: dude ruling about transgender people in sports, the band of Famous,

305
00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: But that's a penis ruling.

306
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 2: He's a dude doctrine.

307
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: But when we come back from break, looking forward to this,

308
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: a progressive congress person.

309
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 2: Runs into the head of Customs.

310
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 1: And Border Patrol in the Capitol and wants to have

311
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: an argument about illegal immigration, and we'll have that jazzy

312
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: back and.

313
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 2: Forth for you and that Supreme Court. Things could be

314
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 2: a big deal. Huh So, anybody got any brilliant thoughts.

315
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it will absolutely and if it's not,

316
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: I will be bitterly, bitterly disappointed. Does anybody have any

317
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: brilliant thoughts on ending the duopoly of those two crappy restaurants?

318
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: Male bag at Armstrong in geeddy dot com is the

319
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: email address to think about it? Noodle it through? What

320
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: to do about it? How do they ensure it? How

321

00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 4: We need to get new zoning laws. We can get

328
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 4: Elon just put out a really weird video on his

329
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,639
Speaker 4: twitter feed.

330
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:27,720
Speaker 2: I want to talk about that at some point.

331
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: I kind of miss Elon, the wackydoodle provocateur. I mean,

332
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: the tech giant is really interesting. The political crusader was

333
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 1: an interesting chapter in his life, but I miss him

334
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: just being the troll.

335
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 4: Well, this is pretty provocative, suggesting boy, some sort of

336
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,919
Speaker 4: robot human romance thing is.

337
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 2: A good idea. Oh boy, why don't we try it

338
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 2: out on you first? You want? Huh? Thanks, get ready

339
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,919
Speaker 2: and they can wear it fast. Aim into that.

340
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,720
Speaker 1: So apparently in the Capitol the other day, congress Lady

341
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: Sandra Feist too, where do we decide she's from Katie,

342
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: Minnesota represents? Oh that's right, of course, yeah, yeah, appropriately enough.

343
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: Who's at least feigning being fired up about the recent

344
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 1: to uglandess ran into Dan Bovino?

345
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:21,680
Speaker 2: Is it Dan?

346
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: I think so sorry, I'm addled with flu. I just

347
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: got the flu shot and I feel kind of funky.

348
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: But anyway, and ran into him and they started arguing

349
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 1: about the immigration situation in general and the Minnesota deal

350
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: and the rest of it. And I think it's kind

351
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 1: of instructive for where people are in their opinions. But

352
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: let's start with sixty four Michael, and we'll go from there.

353
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 7: Why are you not arrested in criminals? Why are so

354
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 7: few of the people that you have rousted and routine

355
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 7: and reported people with the records.

356
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 8: They're all from. They've almost the border illegally eighteen USC

357
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 8: thirteen twenty five illegal entry.

358
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 2: That's a federal Yes, that's so considered fule immigration enforcement.

359
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 1: Okay, that's fun. You know, we can talk about that

360
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: if you want. She got a bit of a voice

361
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: to her, doesn't she? And it's Greg Bovino. Thank you

362
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: for the clarification. Go on, folks, double digit drops and grime?

363
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 8: You look have you looked at your statistics you don't

364
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,400
Speaker 8: care about for the last since we've been connecting kind

365
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 8: of Yes, double digit drops and grime correlation not causation.

366
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 2: When way there that does cause that? Well, I don't know,

367
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: I saw, you don't know if the time was who

368
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 2: is a stander?

369
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 8: Don't drive a two thousand pounds missing and an ice agent.

370
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 8: You won't have an outbum that you don't agree with represented.

371
00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: So I you know, I'm prejudiced because I agree with him,

372
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,600
Speaker 1: and I knew going in I would. But saying she

373
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: was a bystander is brutally dishonest.

374
00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 2: I would say she was obviously a participant. Yeah, you know.

375
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 1: A corollary to the Getty law that people don't make

376
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 1: terrible arguments because they're really really good arguments are in

377
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: the shower, or they're saving them for tomorrow. They make

378
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: them because that's all they got. Well, the tangent to

379
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 1: that would be people don't resist, don't resort, rather to

380
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: ridiculously dishonest characterizations of a situation, because you know, just

381
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 1: that they forgot what the honest characterization is.

382
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 2: They do it because they have to.

383
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: That's the only way they can make their point, or

384
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 1: they that's the only hope they have to make their

385
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: point successfully.

386
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: Rolling on not that second Amendment.

387
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if you heard, but we had

388
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 7: a shooting in a school here in Minnesota recently, and

389
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 7: this second Amendment, Well, I think that if we had

390
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 7: some common sense gun but gun violence.

391
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 8: Sense you well, yes, yes, exactly, And I think that's

392
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 8: definitely the problem there. When you use that violent rhetoric

393
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 8: around children. Yeah, i'd say that you probably are not

394
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 8: exercising a lot on them since their.

395
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 7: Representatives really well, all i've seen here in Minnesota is

396
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 7: people dying and feeding.

397
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:17,159
Speaker 2: Children about the lives that are saved by guns. You

398
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 2: don't talk about that yet. So is this one of

399
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 2: those rorshot tests?

400
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 4: If some of my progressive friends were listening to this,

401
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 4: would she would they think she's owning him, because to me,

402
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 4: it seems like she sounds like an idiot.

403
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 2: He's making sense.

404
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like an unhappy teenager arguing with a very

405
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 1: serious adult. And I almost I wish This wasn't edited

406
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: quite so heavily because I'd like to hear more context.

407
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 1: Go ahead, Katie.

408
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 2: So the parts of.

409
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 9: It that I have cut out are long pauses where

410
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 9: every time that he says something and makes a clear point,

411
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 9: she goes silent, silent and pulls her phone out and

412
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 9: is like violently texting.

413
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:57,919
Speaker 2: So there was something.

414
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 9: I don't know if she was looking stuff up, but

415
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 9: she was trying to get something going on her phone,

416
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 9: because she would shut down and go straight into our

417
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 9: phone for probably a minute and then come back at him.

418
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 2: Oh okay, interesting next clip. The end all is get

419
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,160
Speaker 2: rid of guns. People don't die. It's fentanyl is still

420
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 2: killing people in Minnesota. Just wondering because it's illegal.

421
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 8: Because it's illegal the government, we don't hand out fentanyl.

422
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,120
Speaker 4: It's fentanel killing people in Minnesota.

423
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 2: See see see.

424
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 10: This is where this is where, this is where you

425
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 10: need to count at ten.

426
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 2: Too easy.

427
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: She says this is dumb and walks away, his point

428
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: being there are laws against fentanyl like crazy, but people

429
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 1: still get them and it kills people and the rest

430
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: of it. More laws won't work well and again, and

431
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 1: we've made this point before, but I think it's worth

432
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 1: making again.

433
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 2: When you get gun laws passed, the left.

434
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:59,479
Speaker 1: Refuses to enforce them because they're disproportionately forced, enforced against

435
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: people of color, and they refuse any enhancement for the

436
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:04,959
Speaker 1: use of a gun or whatever.

437
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 2: I mean.

438
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: If I'm on the left, I would look around me

439
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,160
Speaker 1: and say, hey, guys, guys, I've realized a problem we've got.

440
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 2: I don't get the self delusion. I truly don't. You

441
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 2: remember when.

442
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: Republicans and Democrats overlapped like eighty percent?

443
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, good times. Yeah, h.

444
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 4: The funny mechanism exacerbates it.

445
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 2: There's no doubt.

446
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 1: Ah yeah, oh yeah, one hundred percent. You know, it's funny.

447
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 1: I was pulled the other day by Emerson College. I

448
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 1: mentioned this on the air and they asked one of

449
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 1: the questions, and you know what I should have done,

450
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,919
Speaker 1: screen captures of all of them. It didn't occur to

451
00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: me at the time. What a numskull I am. But

452
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: one of the questions was one of the areas and

453
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: they asked several questions about this is what are the

454
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 1: greatest threats to our democracy? First of all, do you

455
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,680
Speaker 1: believe our democracy is not threatened? Slightly threatened? Someone threatened

456
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: very threatened, or it's already over in Hitler's in the

457
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: White House. And I was somewhere kind of middling that. Yeah,

458
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,000
Speaker 1: it's under stress, definitely. And they had like six or

459
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: seven choices what do you think is the biggest threat

460
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 1: to our democracy?

461
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 2: And one of the choices.

462
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: Or what's the most important thing that could be done

463
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: to help our democracy? And some of the choices were

464
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 1: about gerrymandering. They obviously wanted to know about some of

465
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: the gerrymandering that's been going on and what my opinion

466
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,359
Speaker 1: was of that, and other folks opinions. But one of

467
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 1: the choices was repeal Citizens United. It makes Supreme Court

468
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: case about can corporations donate to political campaigns or packs

469
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: or whatever? And I thought, oh my god, if you

470
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:02,320

00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: a hell of a lot more steady going and reliable

475
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: than the average you know American who gets whipped up

476
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 1: for ten minutes and it hits the send button. Yeah, exactly,

477
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 1: this is so dumb and walks away. I'm gonna do

478
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,959
Speaker 1: that more in my life. Yeah, this is dumb.

479
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 2: I run into that a lot.

480
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 4: So the flu shot made you feel sick, You didn't

481
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 4: feel like you got the flu.

482
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: A little bit. Yeah, yeah, mostly I'm just exhausted. But

483
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: my body has mounted an immune response. It's a good sign.

484
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 1: I got a good vital immune system. It's ready to go,

485
00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 1: come on, bringing on diseases.

486
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 4: How often does the flu vaccine make people fluish? Most

487
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 4: of the time, pretty frequently.

488
00:25:58,720 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 2: I don't know.

489
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 1: My blushing bride got it a few weeks ago and

490
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: she felt nothing. Of course, you know, does have the

491
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 1: immune system of I like a bull moose.

492
00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 4: Well, so you're portraying it. So it's a good thing.

493
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 4: If you get sick, that means it's working.

494
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and if you don't, necessarily bad thing if

495
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: you don't get much of a reaction. But yeah, the

496
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,679
Speaker 1: reason you have a reaction is your body says, oh

497
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: a pathogen yes, and fires up its responses. The idea being,

498
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: if it comes to you for real, it's already got

499
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 1: a standing army. Your body's already has id'ed the enemy

500
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: and is ready to fight. It, so, Yeah, it's fine,

501
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: little extra strength islon Allen, I'm back in the game.

502
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 4: You don't think they put a chip in here or

503
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 4: something when you got the flu shot? Oh, I assume

504
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 4: they didn't Mark of the Beast or something.

505
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:42,119
Speaker 2: Bill Gates.

506
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Satan working together hand in hand through Anthony

507
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,000
Speaker 1: Fauci exactly.

508
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 2: And it all started on Epstein's island. That's right. That's

509
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 2: a nice job. Jo tied it together.

510
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 4: We had something we're gonna play coming back. Oh, a

511
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 4: funny joke from last night making fun of you.

512
00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: Did you mention the Jew or were you implying that

513
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 1: when you mentioned Epstein?

514
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,400
Speaker 2: I wasn't implying a Jews at all.

515
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,920
Speaker 1: But well, because you got to rope that into you're

516
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: all encompassing. Oh, by the way, somebody burning down a

517
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: synagogue in Mississippi or was it memphisis I think it

518
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 1: wass Mississippi.

519
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 2: If that was a mosque, that would be the biggest

520
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 2: story in America. No kidding, no kid.

521
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: Hell, hey, liberals, why are you so willingly cooperating? You

522
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,680
Speaker 1: call every freaking body a Nazi, and somebody's going after

523
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 1: the Jews. Maybe that rings a bell and you're silent

524
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

525
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 2: You people make me insane.

526
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 4: The burning down a mosque would be yeah, present would

527
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 4: have to give an Oval Office address.

528
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 2: But no.

529
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: Jews are targeted all across America and nothing happens.

530
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,840
Speaker 2: It disgusts me. Yeah.

531
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 4: Well, I don't want anything to happen to any place

532
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 4: of worship. But I thought it was interesting in my

533
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: town that they now have a giant, very sturdy fence

534
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,119
Speaker 4: around the Jewish campus where they never had it before.

535
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 4: Their house of worship and a couple other things they

536
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 4: got there. And the decades I've lived there, you could

537
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 4: just walk onto the campus and attend whatever you need

538
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 4: to attend. Now there's a gate and you got to

539
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 4: go you know somebody and they let you in.

540
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:16,280
Speaker 2: Everything like that.

541
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 4: And just down the same street there's the mosque, And

542
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 4: ain't it don't need no fence in a very progressive

543
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 4: part of America. And I don't want any of them

544
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 4: to need a fence, of course, not no, I think

545
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 4: we see it absolutely gets your point. One of the

546
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 4: funny jokes from Golden Globes last night, among other things,

547
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 4: on the way we will finish.

548
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: Strong, Army Strong.

549
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 11: Hettie Seawan Penn is also here.

550
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: Kai San.

551
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 2: I love you, Sean.

552
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 11: You're such an original. You know, everyone in this town

553
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 11: is obsessed with looking younger, mean, while Sean Penn is like,

554
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 11: what if I slowly morph into a sexy leather handbag

555
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 11: And I feel.

556
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 2: Like that's it's Hocks. It's good.

557
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 11: Not only such an amazing but you're such a devoted humanitarian.

558
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 11: I mean, I feel like a lot of actors talk

559
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 11: the talk, but Sean Penn will actually go to the

560
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,719
Speaker 11: places in the world that need help the most, and

561
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 11: he will do cocaine there, and I feel like we

562
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,560
Speaker 11: don't celebrate that at all. And Sean, I did get

563
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 11: permission to tell that joke from your two best friends,

564
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 11: Charlie Sheen and el Choppo, so they say, HI, blame.

565
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 2: It on that. Wow. Wow, that's pretty amusing.

566
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: Is Sean Penn in that controversial movie we've been talking?

567
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 2: I think so. Yeah. It's a huge star power in

568
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 2: that movie. Yeah yeah, goe. Battle after Another is the

569
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:38,960
Speaker 2: name of the movie.

00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: Good friend of the Armstrong you get he showing of

571
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: mine personally said, you know, if you go in with

572
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: it's really woke, then you'll see it that way.

573
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it.

574
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: Leo's terrific and Sean Penn is amazing and he's also

575
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: from Sacramento, California, and says, I just really like seeing

576
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: Sacramento with movies. Hmm, okay, because remember Leo DiCaprio filmed

577
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:00,720
Speaker 1: some big scenes guests downtown.

578
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 2: Oh right, right, right right, yeah.

579
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 4: So uh, I'm not I wish that woman hadn't been

580
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,120
Speaker 4: shot in the head and were dead in Minneapolis.

581
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: I wish I hadn't gone that way, and.

582
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: Especially because she's got a couple of kids, and then

583
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 4: she's got that loud, loud mouth, long day wife of hers.

584
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 4: If you've seen that video, jeez, you seem like a peach. Anyway,

585
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:36,400
Speaker 4: people started to go fund me for the wife and

586
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 4: it's now a million and a half dollars.

587
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 2: Oh hey, there you go.

588
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 4: That'll help with raising the kids, which she will need

589
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 4: because I don't trust her judgment on a lot of things.

590
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 1: Uh No, In fact, she terribly said I made her

591
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: come down here, it's my fault.

592
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, But now she's got a million and a half dollars.

593
00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: Many, many people have been murdered for a million and

594
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: a half dollars in shar It's policies.

595
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 2: Uh, human history, whole Gunman.

596
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 4: Go fundme thing is an interesting wrinkle in the modern world,

597
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 4: isn't it?

598
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 2: Oh please?

599
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 4: I mean the the incredible justice sometimes that is done

600
00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 4: where something unfortunate happens to somebody, are really unfair. Usually, yeah,

601
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 4: it happens to somebody and we all feel bad, and

602
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 4: you know, go fund me gets going on for a

603
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 4: couple of bucks. All of a sudden that person's taken

604
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 4: care of. But then there's all kinds of people you hate.

605
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 4: The last thing they should get is rewarded, and then

606
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 4: I go fund me bails them out, and.

607
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 1: America has become one big like weird jury where two

608
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: people getting a screaming match in an airport. One of

609
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: them gets docked and run out of their job and

610
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: the other one gets rich. Eh so I hadn't heard it.

611
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 1: Game show, a weird never ending game show.

612
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 4: I want to talk about a post Elon made on

613
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 4: his Twitter in the One More Thing podcast in which

614
00:31:55,080 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 4: he's suggesting some sort of romance between humans and Tesla robots.

615
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 4: You know that's his new thing now, is not the

616
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 4: cars but the robots. Really that's interesting, can't be because

617
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 4: he's big on human beings. The whole populate in Mars

618
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 4: thing is to keep human human humans alive. Anyway, He's

619
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 4: bred himself an army as well. Elon announced the other day.

620
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 4: Well yeah, speaking of his kid, his thirteenth child, Elon

621
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 4: announced the other day's filing for full custody of his

622
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 4: one year old son because the things that the mom

623
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 4: has said implying she might support transitioning the young boy.

624
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 2: Oh kids won, And.

625
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 4: So he's bringing all his legal and financial expertise to
