Wow, you idiot. 11 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 3: You're here from another country. You have a responsibility to 12 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 3: give back, so turn around. 13 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: Wow Wow, No crude, I don't approve. I just avow. 14 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: I just avow. 15 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 4: But I hope you'll live in a room for my 16 00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 4: fist because I'm going. 17 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: To ram it indio Sama. 18 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 4: They say that on the View we have some view 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 4: clips of Arnold. We got to dridge those back up 20 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 4: and use them later. 21 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 3: So I was actually just doubting whether or not this 22 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: Tucker Carlson, Ted Cruz stuff is worth doing. 23 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: Does this this matter? 24 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 3: I mean I looked up at ABC News and they 25 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 3: got a clip of it, and I saw it on 26 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 3: Morning Joe Today. Also, I mean a lot of mainstream 27 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 3: media is playing clips of Tucker Carlson interviewing Ted Cruz 28 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 3: and Ted Cruz's off senator senatorial office there in Washington, 29 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 3: d C. They love trying to portray the right as 30 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:45,680 Speaker 3: divided at each other's throats, as if the Democratic Party 31 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 3: hasn't been a coalition of people that don't agree forever. 32 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 3: And I mean it's more of a coalition than the 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 3: Republican Party has ever been by far. 34 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: But of an artisficial coalition him. 35 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 3: But before we play clip, I ask again, I I 36 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 3: taken a bunch of right leaning media, like podcasts and 37 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 3: stuff like that, and they disagree on things all the time. Yeah, 38 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: tell me a podcast that leans left where they aren't 39 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: just uniformly opposed to Trump and ever argue with each other. 40 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 4: I assume they exist, but I have never found one. 41 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 4: I just found a great, really interesting university study. I 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 4: could probably find it if you give me half an hour, 43 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 4: but that showed the breadth of disagreement and breadth of 44 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 4: opinions on the right versus the left. I mean, there's 45 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 4: no comparison. You're absolutely right with that point, if you will, 46 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 4: and even more broadly and more interestingly, just to get 47 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 4: back to the iran question for now you have AOC 48 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 4: and MTG singing a beautiful duet of we shouldn't get 49 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 4: into this, so it's yeah, it's a great question. 50 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: Who believes what? And why? 51 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: You watch CNN They'll have nine panelists who all agree. 52 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 3: Why do you have nine people on to say the 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 3: same thing? You watch a lot of FOC the shows. 54 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 3: They'll have somebody there reporting on the left side of 55 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 3: the story. Jan Williams every Sunday with Shannon Breem on 56 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: her show. 57 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: You don't get that on? I know, I don't know why. 58 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 3: I don't know why because I think it'd be way 59 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 3: more interesting and better TV, audio, podcast, whatever. 60 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 4: Well, because conservatives are generally more individualists than lefties who 61 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 4: are collectivists, You're a collectivist, y'all have to agree. 62 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: I guess that makes sense. 63 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 3: So, uh, this is pretty juicy chunk of the two 64 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 3: hour interview Tucker did with Ted Cruz, and I watched 65 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: the whole freaking thing and found a pretty damned interesting 66 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 3: both substantively from a personal standpoint of two people getting 67 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 3: angry with each other, then having to calm down and 68 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: continue to talk, and then learning something about how to 69 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 3: argue unfairly if I ever decide I just want to 70 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: piss people off, because Tucker's really good at that. 71 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he is the master. He might be the 72 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: all timer. 73 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: So one thing Tucker does regularly is he interrupts you 74 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: while you're in the middle of something and gets you 75 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: sidetracked on a completely different topic. And he did that 76 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: with Ted Cruz a whole bunch of different times. And 77 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: it was about him taking money from some organization that 78 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 3: supports Israel and if he's in the pocket of Israel 79 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 3: and this sort of stuff, and so that that's where 80 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 3: kind of where they were when it goes here. 81 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 5: But it's just interesting because what you're now describing in 82 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 5: a very defensive way, I will say, is foreign influence 83 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 5: over our politics now, and you began and it's so 84 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 5: transparently obvious to everybody. I don't know why you would 85 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 5: be embarrassed of. But you've said that you are sincerely 86 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 5: for Israel. 87 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: I believe you. 88 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 5: I don't think you have some weird agenda you seem to, by. 89 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 6: The way, Tucker, it's a very weird thing, the obsession 90 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 6: with Israel, and we're talking about for it. You're not 91 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 6: talking about Chinese, you're not talking about Japanese. You're not 92 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 6: talking about the Brits, you're not talking about the French. 93 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 6: The question what about the Jews? What about the Jews? 94 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you, Sam, Senator, you're just in the question. 95 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 6: You're asking why are the Jews controlling our foreign policy? 96 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 5: That's what you just asked, hardly saying that, and I 97 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 5: have that's exactly what you just said. Well, actually, I 98 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 5: can speak for myself and tell you what I am 99 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 5: saying on behalf, not simply of myself, but on my 100 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 5: many Jewish friends who would have the same questions, which 101 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 5: is to what extent? And it's interesting you're trying to 102 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 5: derail my questions by following me an anti semi, which 103 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:23,720 Speaker 5: you are. 104 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 1: I did not. Of course you are. 105 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 5: And and rather than be honorable enough to say it 106 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 5: right to my face, I are sitting a sleeezy feeline 107 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 5: way implying it or just asking questions about the Jews, 108 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 5: I'm asking questions about the Jews I have. There's nothing 109 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 5: to do with Jews or Judaism, and it has to 110 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 5: foreign government. 111 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 6: Use in Israel controlling our foreign policy. 112 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: That's not about the Jew said I'm asked. 113 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 7: By the way, you're the. 114 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: One that just called it, I think a sleezy felie. 115 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 4: So it's clear, you know, I want to look away, 116 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 4: but I can't. 117 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 3: You're the one who called me a sleezy fee line 118 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 3: in our city, a sleezy feeline way implying it. 119 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 4: Wow, Tucker is brilliant at unfair arguments. He's just brilliant too, 120 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 4: and a great writer. But he's uh, he's twisted, he's 121 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 4: gone to the dark side. 122 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 6: Let's just call me I think a sleezy feline. 123 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 3: And Tucker keeps going back to that. For them, this 124 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 3: happens early, keeps going back to it for like the 125 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: next hour and forty five minutes. 126 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: Well, you called me an anti semi. I did not 127 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: implied it. Sure he did. 128 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:41,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, although that was like four digressions from the point 129 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 3: they were talking. Yes, and Tucker implied that he is 130 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 3: just that Ted Cruz is only standing up for Israel 131 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 3: because he's taking money from various lobbies and and he's 132 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 3: in the pocket of so right, you know. Uh, So 133 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: let's go to a different topic, Russia, And they got 134 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 3: into the discover ussion of uh, why Tucker Carlson's always 135 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: on the side of Russia and him going over there 136 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 3: to interview Putin and Putin and go to the grocery store. 137 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: And all that sort of stuff.

And Ted Cruz Will said, well, 170 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 3: I don't have the exact number. 171 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: You don't know. 172 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: You don't know how much money we've sent to Israel. 173 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 3: And I just stepped over five people dying in the 174 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 3: sidewalk today. 175 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: You know that sort of conversation. 176 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 4: Wow, the multi layered bad faith arguments are amazing. 177 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: And I don't so. 178 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 3: I guess that's what people are talking about with the woke, 179 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 3: right is that? Am I right here in that? When 180 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 3: did when did worrying about drug addicts in the street 181 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: become such a big deal? 182 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: I just what are you supposed to do about that.

Is the obvious? 184 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: I don't want people to become drug addicts to die 185 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 3: in the street, but I don't know how I can 186 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 3: stop them. And I'm more concerned about how they're damaging 187 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 3: my life than how much more tax money I can 188 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 3: give to help them, because we've given tremendous amounts of 189 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 3: tax money. Well, right, I think California has been a 190 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 3: very useful laboratory of democracy. Okay, you want to take 191 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 3: enormous amounts of money that could be spent for other 192 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,120 Speaker 3: things in the case of Tucker's argument Ukraine for instance, 193 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 3: or Israel, and throw it at a prejudicial phrase, the 194 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: quote unquote homeless problem. California has tried that it was 195 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 3: enormously wasteful and encouraged people to become or continue to 196 00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: be drug addicts. I don't think throw it at the 197 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 3: problem is a prejudicial phrase in this not in California 198 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: this context, because they got caught not keeping track of 199 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 3: where the money went, how it was spent, or did 200 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 3: it do any good, So that actually is just throwing money. 201 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 1: At a problem. 202 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 3: You're right, Yeah, Usually it's a prejudicial phrase, not in 203 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 3: this case, but so don't. 204 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't. 205 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,599 Speaker 3: I don't get if that's what the Tucker crowd and 206 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 3: the woke right are into.

More, what can 218 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 4: we do here at home? 219 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, for some reason, they couldn't ever really get that 220 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: conversation going of Ted Cruz trying to convince Tucker Carlson, 221 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 3: as I often do what I'm talking on the air, 222 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 3: that it is an America's interest. It is not just 223 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 3: to help someone else. I believe some of us believe 224 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 3: it is an America's interest to keep a. 225 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: Rand from getting a nuclear weapon.

Wow, wouldn't that be something? 337 00:16:58,560 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? 338 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's both awe inspiring and fear inspiring in a way. 339 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 4: We have these enormous powers now, right, AI nuclear weapons crisper. 340 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 341 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 3: One, there's always the possibility that a lot of I 342 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 3: don't know what's the right term that's not insulting, defects 343 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 3: or whatever, or for a reason that we don't understand. 344 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: There's always the possibility of that. 345 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 3: There's also this isn't a possibility, this is a reality 346 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 3: that if you can do that, you can also make 347 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: everybody seven feet tall two hundred and eighty pounds in 348 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,719 Speaker 3: mostly muscle, to make an army out of them, if 349 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 3: you're North Korea or China. 350 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 4: Sure they're working on it as we speak, I'm sure. Yeah. 351 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:45,880 Speaker 4: Speaking of childhood and genetics and that sort of thing. 352 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 4: The Supreme Court ruling that powerful transgender treatments for kids 353 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 4: can be made illegal in your state, maybe it is already, 354 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 4: and that the Fourteenth Amendment got nothing to do with it. 355 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 4: Great ruling and serious overreach by the gender bending madness crowd. 356 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,120 Speaker 3: We probably out of touch on what Juneteenth is to 357 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 3: today's holiday, national holiday at some point. A bunch of 358 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:13,480 Speaker 3: stuff on the way, stay hear. 359 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 4: Armstrong and getty. 360 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 7: The Supreme Court's conservative majority upholding Tennessee's ban on some 361 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 7: gender affirming medical care for transgender miners In the six 362 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 7: to three decision, Chief Justice John Roberts, citing evolving science 363 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 7: and profound implications, rejecting the argument that denying trans kids 364 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 7: access to puberty blockers and hormone therapy amounts to sex discrimination. 365 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 7: Roberts writing the issue should be left to the people. 366 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 7: They're elected representatives in the democratic process. Justice Sonya Sotomayor, 367 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 7: joined by liberal Justices Kagan and Jackson, dissented in sadness, 368 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 7: writing the Court's decision inflicts untold harm to transgender children 369 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 7: and the parents and families who love them. 370 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: You're freaking crazy. God that the way they wrote the 371 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 3: headlines on this decision right there, that guy his first sentence, 372 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 3: medical care, in what sense is doing something completely unnecessary 373 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 3: to a child? 374 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 4: Medical care? That was a thirty eight second clip. I 375 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 4: could teach a college class on that thirty eight second 376 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 4: No kidding. There was so much there, so much prejudicial language. Actually, 377 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 4: when the facts popped up, they're pretty good. It was 378 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 4: pretty even a handed report. But my god, the amount 379 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 4: of prejudicial language. 380 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: And there is amazing medical care. 381 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 4: I know, I know, I almost want to go through 382 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 4: that like sentenced by phrase by phrase, tour de force 383 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 4: of bad reporting. Anyway, that was let's say discredit where 384 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,959 Speaker 4: it's too That was what ABC tonight. No surprise, they're terrible. 385 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 3: Everybody did that, though everybody butt Fox in the New 386 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 3: York Post pretty much went with, you know what a 387 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 3: setback for transgender rights as opposed to majority opinion agreeing 388 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 3: with the majority opinion of the United States. 389 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 4: Right, bizarre new medical experiments on children no longer allowed. 390 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 4: I read some editorializing by the National Review yesterday that 391 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,199 Speaker 4: was much closer to that. And if you look at 392 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 4: established norms plus polls which Jack alluded to there and 393 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 4: arrived at something like a consensus, my headline is much 394 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 4: more accurate than the ABC News headline. 395 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 3: Could have thrown in a joining with Europe, the United 396 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 3: States now could have done that. 397 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 4: Money with the vast majority of the rest of the world. 398 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 4: Ye had that excellent point. Yeah, uh, you know it 399 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 4: struck me in listening to that, and as I've been 400 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 4: preparing for this segment. It's one of those fundamental worldview 401 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 4: issues like Thomas Sole wrote about, and is brilliant to 402 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 4: conflict divisions. You got two groups of people who see 403 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 4: the world completely differently. Specifically, you either believe that a 404 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 4: child or an adolescent or a teen can decide they're 405 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 4: the other sex and they're right, and that is as 406 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 4: true as their height or their number of fingers. You 407 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:33,439 Speaker 4: either believe that completely or you reject it completely. So 408 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 4: it's difficult to cross that divide. 409 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 3: So if I was going to argue the other side 410 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 3: of it, the belief is you need to do this 411 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 3: when they're young, either before or while they're going through puberty. 412 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 3: Otherwise you know they're going through a transition to a 413 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 3: their bodies are going through changes to become a gender 414 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 3: that they aren't right, and it's a horrifying thing to 415 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 3: do to something right. 416 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 4: If I accept your premise, then that's a defensible argument. 417 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 4: I think the premise is obscene, it's delusional, it's crazy, 418 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 4: it's just wrong. And so once you accept a premise 419 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 4: that's that crazy, and it just you know, it's funny. 420 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 4: It just dawned on me. That's what bothers me so 421 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 4: much about. Even like Fox News coverage of these issues, 422 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 4: their language acts as if they've accepted the premise of 423 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 4: radical gender theory, which was a fringe of a fringe 424 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 4: of a political slash philosophical view not very long ago, 425 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 4: and it deserves to go back there. 426 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 3: If you use the phrase gender affirming care, you have 427 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 3: accepted the premise that this is all a thing. 428 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, More specifically about this case, and I could 429 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 4: get into some of the unhinged quotes from Sonya Subdomiora 430 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 4: for instance. 431 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:03,360 Speaker 1: Who it's just unhinged with emotional arguments that also. 432 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 4: Also completely by the premise, And I think that's probably 433 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 4: the fundamental question. But so the case that the transgender 434 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 4: activist lunatics had brought, which was a real gamble and 435 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 4: a bad one, and there's a lot of analysis of 436 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 4: that on the left these days. But what they were 437 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:31,199 Speaker 4: claiming was the fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees equal protection of 438 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 4: the laws. Okay, this is a fourteenth Amendment case because 439 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 4: a male a boy, can be prescribed testosterone to conform 440 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 4: to his gender identity he has a hormone problem or 441 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 4: something like that. 442 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: But you're saying in these laws a girl, a female. 443 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 4: Can't get that same medical treatment, that sex discrimination. 444 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: That was the claim. 445 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 4: I find that claim to be patently absurd on a 446 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 4: number of different levels. If the same drug, substance, gene 447 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:15,400 Speaker 4: we were talking about Crisper earlier, hormone. 448 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 1: Platelets plasma has. 449 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 4: An enormously different effect on one patient over the other. 450 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 1: It's not quote unquote the same treatment. It's the same substance. 451 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 4: But I mean, it's this is a ridiculous example, but 452 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 4: I don't think it's out of bound. If you were 453 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 4: to inject giraffe blood into me. 454 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 3: It would kill Flow down a second. You gotta let 455 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: us take that in. 456 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 4: It would kill me. It might help an anemic giraffe. Okay, substance. 457 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 4: You know what you need a doctor, an injection of 458 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 4: giraffe blood. 459 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: Blood. You're never even considered that doctor. Well, you're the 460 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: doctor exactly. 461 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 4: It's an absurd example, but the point being that substance 462 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 4: would have a vastly different effect on me than it 463 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,960 Speaker 4: would on say, a baby giraffe. And likewise, boys and girls, 464 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 4: it's an absurd argument. You know, a doc, I find 465 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 4: myself having difficulty reaching the highest leaves you. 466 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: Ah, right. 467 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 4: So the Biden administration that originally joined in the horrifyingly 468 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 4: wrong side in this case claimed that this law in Tennessee, 469 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 4: I'm sorry it was. They were trying to overturn a 470 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 4: Tennessee law which is shared by roughly half the states, 471 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 4: and soon all of them. I hope a teenager whose 472 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 4: sex assigned at birth is mail right there. 473 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 1: Stop it. 474 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 4: Nobody assigns your sex at birth, It's observed, except in 475 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 4: an exceedingly rare number of cases in which there's ambiguous 476 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:59,160 Speaker 4: genitalia or both, or et cetera. And I just don't 477 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 4: mean external gener genitalia, but testicles and ovaries as well, 478 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 4: or a chromosomal abnormality. 479 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 3: Is there a band called ambiguous genitalia? I mean, if 480 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 3: there's not in like Portland or Seattle or someplace like that, 481 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 3: some college down there's certainly should be. 482 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 4: They probably are, you know, it's an unsigned garage band somewhere. 483 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 4: So Chief Justice Roberts wrote SB one. The law prohibits 484 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 4: healthcare providers from administering puberty blockers and hormones to miners 485 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 4: for certain medical uses, for when, for example, a transgender boy. 486 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 4: And again, stop using the language of radical gender theory. 487 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 4: Why have we adopted their language? 488 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 1: Uh? 489 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 4: Anyway, When, for example, a girl takes puberty blockers to wow, 490 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 4: Roberts even refers to the girl taking hormones male hormones 491 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 4: as his as he oh really, yeah, wow, he's going 492 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 4: on of his way to be fair. I guess yes 493 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 4: and not come off as a quote unquote bigot. But again, 494 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 4: you've bought the original premise. I'm just going to read 495 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 4: it to you because I was going to try to 496 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,360 Speaker 4: translate it into actual the proper pronouns, but it's too confusing. When, 497 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 4: for example, a transgender boy whose biological sex is female 498 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 4: takes puberty blockers to treat his gender incongruence, he receives 499 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 4: a different medical treatment than a boy who's biological sex 500 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 4: is male who takes puberty blockers to treat his precocious 501 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 4: puberty or whatever. 502 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: Anyway, the whole. 503 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 4: Idea of a transgender boy, now, now, why are you 504 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 4: adopting that language. It is a moment of confusion, social pressure, 505 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 4: mass delusion, sexual kink, whatever. But I reject the notion 506 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 4: that there is such a thing as a transgender boy. 507 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 4: Won't even use the term anyway. 508 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 2: Please do not use gendered language to address everyone. 509 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 4: It'd be pretty tough to even tell you about this 510 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 4: case without that. So it's a great it's a great 511 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 4: decision that said, essentially, no, the people of Tennessee and 512 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 4: the other states can look at these medical treatments for 513 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 4: which the science is awful. I mean it is not 514 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 4: even the barest bones of preliminary Yes, this is okay 515 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 4: type substantiation. 516 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: It's it's terrible. 517 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 4: The people of Tennessee can look at that and say, no, 518 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 4: We're not going to do this to our children in 519 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 4: the state of Tennessee, said the Supreme Court. That's the 520 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 4: long and short of the ruling. Hey la, hey la, 521 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 4: let the gavel ring down. 522 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 3: So in our three we will have to get back 523 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 3: into you know, what's going to happen with the United 524 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 3: States and and all that and what Trump has been 525 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 3: saying in the last twenty four hours. 526 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: But today is June nineteenth. 527 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 3: It's the anniversary of a couple of things, one incredibly important, 528 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 3: one not but still worth noting. 529 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: We'll get to that coming up next. Armstrong he getty. 530 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 6: Slowly. 531 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: I can go slow, head someone down and jump some 532 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: of thissh oh. I know that music. No, this isn't good. 533 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm getting out of the water. I hear a cello 534 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: like that. You're going to need a bigger poach. 535 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what you're swimming and you hear the cello, 536 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 3: get out of the water. It's the fiftieth anniversary of 537 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 3: Jaws debuting and there's a big hit and made people irrationally, 538 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 3: and I made people irrationally scared of being attacked by 539 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 3: sharks because it almost never happens. 540 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 4: Myself included as a young lad who spent every chunk 541 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 4: of every summer on the New Jersey shore. 542 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 3: Now everybody thinks that shark finna bite your arm off 543 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: and it ate. Another thing that happened on this day, 544 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 3: aside from Jaws debuting, was in eighteen sixty five. On 545 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 3: this day, the reason we call it June teenth. I 546 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 3: don't know if the harp was appropriate. There, Gladys Union 547 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 3: General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and announced General 548 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 3: Order number three, which stated that all enslaved people were free. 549 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 3: This had happened over two years after present Lincoln issued 550 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: the Amancipacent Proclamation. Texas was one of the last Confederate 551 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 3: states where slavery continued, so the news reaching there symbolized 552 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 3: the true end of slavery. In practice, June teenth, as 553 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 3: seen as America's second Independence day, kind of fitting in 554 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 3: with what okay, well, that's more or less what Lincoln 555 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 3: was saying in his speech about, you know, the second 556 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 3: Declaration of our founding that old thing, and I was 557 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 3: just going to read a little bit from what Tim Sander, 558 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 3: for our friend, wrote for the Goldwater Institute a couple 559 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 3: of years back. 560 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 1: He reprinted it today. 561 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 3: June tenth celebrates spirit of Americans dedicated to securing promise 562 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 3: of freedom. June tenth is more than a celebration of freedom. 563 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 3: It's a celebration of one of mankind's greatest triumphs, the 564 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 3: war against enslavement. It's a beautiful and moving story and 565 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 3: one all Americans should be proud of. For countless generations, 566 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 3: before the birth of the United States, Europeans and in fact, 567 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 3: the peoples of all the earth believed that human beings 568 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 3: are bound by destiny, born into a cast to be 569 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 3: rule or to be ruled, to conquer or to be conquered. 570 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 3: Such thinking had indeed left much of the known world 571 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 3: enslaved in one way or another. Africans, Asians, native American 572 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 3: tribes practice forms of slavery, and Europeans brought slavery to 573 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 3: North America, first with the conquistadors who came to capture 574 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 3: the natives, and two centuries later with the traffic in 575 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 3: enslaved Africans, and by the time Thomas Jefferson began writing 576 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 3: the Declaration of Independence. Black Americans had been held in 577 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 3: bondage for a century and a half. Never before in 578 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 3: history had a society seriously tried to eliminate the institution 579 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 3: of human enslavement. Some philosophers had on occasion questioned slavery's legitimacy, 580 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 3: but the idea of ending it on a nationwide scale 581 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: had never been taken seriously. Never, that is, until the 582 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,479 Speaker 3: last quarter of the eighteenth century. It was then that 583 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 3: the ideas that we call classical liberalism, ideas developed by 584 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 3: thinkers of widely different backgrounds in many different countries, climaxed 585 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 3: with the declaration that everyone had a basic and ineradicable 586 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 3: right to freedom, the right to choose one's own destiny 587 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 3: and work towards own's happiness. This was a truly radical idea, 588 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 3: something genuinely new in the political world, and it foretold 589 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 3: drastic transformation in society. And then he gets into Lincoln's 590 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,719 Speaker 3: declaration of a Second Founding and trying to get the 591 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 3: promise of the Declaration of Independence into actual action in 592 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 3: our country. But I wish this was Tim's piece, or 593 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 3: any of the pieces that he references, was presented in 594 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 3: schools as often as the sixteen nineteen Project Is, which 595 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 3: has the exact opposite take on the whole thing. 596 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I was gonna mention, I'd imagine a handful 597 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 4: or more of our listeners are listening to that somewhat 598 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 4: uncomfortable and maybe even not sure why. I've been thinking 599 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 4: about this a lot. I happen to come across an 600 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 4: article explaining that Plano, Illinois, which is onlike the Way 601 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 4: Way outskirts of Chicagoland, they were the first town to 602 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 4: have an official Juneteenth holiday in recent vintage. Anyway, they 603 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 4: have called it off this year because so many companies 604 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,799 Speaker 4: are not wanting to sponsor it because their customers will 605 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,720 Speaker 4: boycott them if they do, and their. 606 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 3: Companies will boycott them. People will boycott the company if they. 607 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 4: Do celebrate Juneteenth, if they sponsor the celebration. Yeah, and 608 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 4: I'll tell you why. And this is it's a real 609 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 4: good lesson. June teenth is, as Tim was describing it, 610 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 4: an important moment. It's incredibly moving if you hear, if 611 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 4: you read about the folks who are enslaved in Texas, 612 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 4: who two years later were still being held and realized 613 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 4: that they were actually free and blah blah blah, living 614 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 4: up to our founding premises. 615 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 1: It's a beautiful thing, but like so. 616 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 4: Many other things, in the wake of the George Floyd thing, 617 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 4: pandering politicians and angry activists jammed it down America's throat, 618 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 4: along with compulsory and high racism training and Robin DiAngelo 619 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 4: and Ibram x Kendy in the sixteen nineteenth sixteen nineteenth 620 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 4: project and Juneteenth got lumped in with all of that 621 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,720 Speaker 4: awful stuff, and that is sad. 622 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:19,960 Speaker 3: Well, we're taking it back to quote bono. Yeah, you 623 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 3: don't get to use that. We use Juneteenth for all 624 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 3: that crap. That's not what it is. As a Tim 625 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 3: retweeted somebody else's article about this is our most libertarian holiday. 626 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: M Yeah, it's a shame. 627 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:37,480 Speaker 4: It got caught up in the neo Marxist movement of 628 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 4: seizing control of institutions by calling people racists so that 629 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 4: they were afraid to say anything or object to the 630 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,320 Speaker 4: takeover of their institutions. 631 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:48,560 Speaker 1: But there we have. 632 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,920 Speaker 4: That's I'm so glad you read that, because that's at 633 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 4: the heart of it, not Joe Biden pandering, not Ebram 634 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 4: e fing x Kendy. 635 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: What Jack read that's what it's about out. 636 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 3: Tim wrote, more importantly, I will I will retweet that 637 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:05,759 Speaker 3: so you could all check it out if you wanted to, 638 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,280 Speaker 3: and we'll post Tim's piece. 639 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,240 Speaker 1: Uh.
