Surprise general manager today Jack J. D Vance. 18 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 3: Why because he's got the snappy Internet come back of 19 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 3: the year. 20 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: Okay, I haven't heard that. I assumed he must have 21 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: the Epstein list since that seems to be the most 22 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: important story in America. I know it's we need a 23 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: show policy. Do we care about the Epstein thing or not? 24 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 1: What's the show we need? We need a white paper. Well, 25 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: if one of us a list, if one of us 26 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: are on the list, quite confident, I am not a 27 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: curious Curiously enough, it's Katie Green that's on the list. Well, 28 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: we might not be interested in the Holy Cow what, 29 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: we might not be interested in the Epstein list, But 30 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: are we interested in the interest in the Epstein list. 31 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: That's where I am. That's pretty interesting right there. You're 32 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: interested in the people who are interested in the Epstein list. 33 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: They continue to interest interests me because I had no interest. 34 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: Well I had some interest, but no remaining interest in 35 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: the original topic. They led with it on ABC this 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: Week yesterday to my surprise, and I kind of figured 37 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: out because they led with it on A Morning Joe Today, 38 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: on MSNBC's some news outlets. It's just it's just their 39 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: latest hammer to use in trying to talk bad about 40 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 1: the Trump administration. So it's their favorite. Look, how stupid 41 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: these people are. The whole Maggog world is so stupid. 42 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: So I think that's mostly their interest. It's not getting 43 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: to the bottom of whatever it is people think they're 44 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 1: getting to the bottom of that. I haven't quite grasped well, although, 45 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: well it depends. We've got Tucker Carlson laying it all 46 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: out for you. He gave a speech over the weekend 47 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: where he, you know, he connected the dots. He lays 48 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: out exactly what the Epstein thing is all about. And 49 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: it's a mostly Israel. Wait what Yeah, Israel's control and 50 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: the whole thing. That's why Trump has to dance to 51 00:02:59,919 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: the net And Yaho's got all the information and he'll 52 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: release it and that'll do in Trump and Bongino and 53 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: Pam Bondi and the whole government and everyone all Hollywood. 54 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: So we have to dance to Israel's tune. That why 55 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: else would we support Israel? Not just because they're a 56 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: democracy and a friend and all these things. Now it's 57 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: got to be the Epstein list. 58 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 3: Seems odd and ill advised that that same fellow Tucker 59 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: Carlson addressed the convention. If he believes now that the 60 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: entire administration is corrupt, perverse and in the pocket of Israel, 61 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 3: seems like an odd pairing. 62 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. Megan Kelly, harsh critic of Pam Bondi, 63 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: the Attorney General, and how she's got to step down 64 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: if she's I mean, she got to go one way 65 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: or the other, either produce a list or resign. Mostly 66 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: for us this really not because she cares about Epstein, 67 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: but mostly from the You claimed you had it, and 68 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: you either have it or you don't. And if you 69 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: claimed you have it and it doesn't exist, you got 70 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: to go because you're a phony. You're not if you're 71 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: not really about being attorney general. 72 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: I would agree certainly a would be Trumpian showman while 73 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: being attorney general, which I think is a bad mix. 74 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: You know, I don't have any problem with the modern 75 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 3: you know, hyperbolic show busy politics. I don't like it, 76 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 3: but I understand it's here to stay. But I don't 77 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 3: need it, say, out of my cardiologist. I don't need 78 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 3: it out of like I don't know a marriage counselor 79 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: the you know, I'm big and bold and brash and provocative, 80 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 3: and I don't need it out of my attorney general. 81 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: I want somebody boring and studious, more Bill bar like. Yeah, 82 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: and I've been impressed by Pam Bondi. I've touted her 83 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 3: as a big person on the scene these days, but 84 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 3: just no, no, sometimes no. 85 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: So to me, the most interesting thing going on will 86 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: happen during our show. Trump is going to announce whatever. 87 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: His big announcement is that he's been teasing for many 88 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:02,280 Speaker 1: days since Friday about you, and it's going to be sanctions, 89 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: and it's going to be weapons. According to Axios, a 90 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: lot of weapons systems, defensive end weapons that are primarily offensive, 91 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: like rockets you could shoot as far as Russia that 92 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: they haven't been supplied with in the past. And then 93 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: everybody's talking about going after this ton of money that 94 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: was seized right when the war started that's just been 95 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: sitting in an account and originally talk was of using 96 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: the interest off these it three hundred billion dollars. It's 97 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: a lot of money. So just the the interest on 98 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: it is a ton of money in freeing that up 99 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: to support Ukraine. And then others are talking about just 100 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: grab the three hundred billion, use that they don't get 101 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: it back, screw them. Yeah, so looking forward to chatting 102 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, that's a fan of irony. 103 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: I gotta admit I love the idea of using the 104 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 3: interest on the money to buy weapons for Ukraine. 105 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 1: But we can chat about that. Yeah, we should start 106 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: because that fits in with the opening clip, I'm Jack Armstrong, 107 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: He's Joe Getty on this it is It's Monday, like 108 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: I said, pregnant with host Building July the fourteenth, the 109 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 1: year twenty twenty five, where I'm strong and getting We 110 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: approve of this program. 111 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 3: When do I pay off the snappy comeback of the year. 112 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 3: Oh no, maybe to kick off next segment, or I 113 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 3: could do it right here.

I thought he 132 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: was somebody that meant what he. 133 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: Said and you'll talk so beautifully and then I'll bomb 134 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: people at night.

No, definitely not see 144 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: Trump was trying to dot dot dot. Yeah. I think 145 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: Trump was trying to He's worked with a lot of uh, 146 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: He's done deals with a lot of creepy people in 147 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: his life, and he acted like he respected him and 148 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: liked him and got him to do things he wanted 149 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: to do. When building a you know, uh, a giant 150 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: hotel or whatever. 151 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 3: Worked with many gangsters in New York who can be 152 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: real cutthroat fellas. 153 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: And he acted like they were all friends and was 154 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: able to make a deal with them. I think that's 155 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: what it is. I don't know why he goes out 156 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: saying things like Putin surprised a lot of people by 157 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: turning out to not be a nice guy. Okay, if 158 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: you say. 159 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 3: So, But that gets to being he's got to be 160 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 3: just ignorant of Putin, because I mean Putin and I 161 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 3: know this. 162 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: You know this. Anybody who's into geopolitics knows this. 163 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 3: Putin harnesses a dozen of those mob bosses and makes 164 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 3: them pull his sleigh in the wintertime, and he puts 165 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 3: the whip to them. 166 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I don't know. I suppose it doesn't matter ultimately, 167 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: since in my mind Trump has come around to the 168 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: correct side on this and sure enough, just very happy 169 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: about that. I'll just live with that.

I mean, it was the most 175 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 1: attacky week of the entire war last week when he 176 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 1: got off the phone with Trump and claimed he was, 177 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: you know, working on a peace deal or whatever. So again, 178 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: Trump's going to announce while we're on the air today 179 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: what exactly he's going to do about that.

I know it's gonna be it's gonna be big, though, 183 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 1: so stand by, and uh my soul specifically said India, Brazil, 184 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: and China are really going to be unhappy because there 185 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: are days of buying cheap Russian oil are over. So 186 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: China and Brazil who cares? So we hate China. I 187 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 1: don't know when we think of Brazil. But India isn't 188 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: supposed to end. Aren't they a front of me? They 189 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: were coming our way?

Anyway? Lots of the ways stay here. 202 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: Here's my most charitable view briefly of Trump's thing was 203 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: he was gonna go to a ridiculous extent to try 204 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: to make a deal with Putin, thinking that it probably 205 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: won't work. And when it doesn't work and we make 206 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: the turn, we're going to be in it for a 207 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: very long time, and it's going to be a very 208 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: big deal, and that will be you know, we'll be on. 209 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to put that off. I'm going to try 210 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: everything possible to avoid that. But it didn't work. That's 211 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: the most charitable thing I can come up with. If 212 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: you are focused. 213 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 3: On what is done as opposed to what is said, 214 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 3: which I think is a healthy way to go. 215 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: It's fine. 216 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 3: I get that that's a good strategy as you described 217 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 3: it just but he says though that man, I was 218 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 3: shocked by Putin. 219 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: He talks pretty but then he come on, he surprised 220 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 1: a lot of people.

We've had a look 311 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 5: at it, and it details that assets were requested by 312 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 5: the Secret Service, including requests made over the phone, and 313 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,959 Speaker 5: they were denied. You also say that the former Secret 314 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 5: Service director made false claims under oath when Kimberly Cheatle 315 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 5: said there were no denials, was she misled or are 316 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 5: you accusing her of lying? 317 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: She did not tell the truth. 318 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 2: She said that there were no assets that were requested advanced. 319 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 2: We found at least four occasions, actually maybe five occasions 320 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 2: where requests were made. 321 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: It's obviously the voice of Senator Ran Paul, who's the 322 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: chair of the Homeland Security Committee in the Senate, which 323 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: for some reason was surprising to me. Anyway, he said 324 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: that Cheatle, who was running the Secret Service at the 325 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: time a year ago when Trump was nearly killed, lied 326 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: under oath to Congress. She came out and strongly denied 327 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: that yesterday. 328 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 3: The only possible defense I could come up with for 329 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 3: her was that that sort of denial has decided below 330 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 3: her level, and she was never told about it, but 331 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 3: you certainly think she would have heard about it. In 332 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:06,160 Speaker 3: the incore post near apocalyptic assassination. So yeah, yeah, Ran 333 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 3: Paul on faced the nation. Their whole report is done, 334 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 3: now their hearings are done. Apparently, why don't we play 335 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 3: another clip or two before I comment? 336 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: But next one, Michael. 337 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 2: The primary request that was made by both Trump's Secret 338 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 2: Service detail as well as his campaign was for counter snipers. 339 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 2: Counter snipers were denied until Butler. So thank god on 340 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 2: that day in Butler County, Pennsylvania, that was the first 341 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: time he was allowed counter snipers. If he had not 342 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 2: had counter snipers, that assassin. 343 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: Would have popped up again. 344 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 2: He did pop up again to continue firing, and that's 345 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 2: when he was taken out. But thank god we had 346 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: the counter snipers there. But why were they denied for 347 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 2: months and months? When they finally did ask for him, 348 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 2: they mysteriously magically appeared. They found him where they needed 349 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 2: They just weren't trying hard enough. 350 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 3: I'm not conspiracy guy, but when you take that and 351 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:09,879 Speaker 3: combine it with the egregious, still incomprehensible failure to secure 352 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 3: a line of sight rooftop, you gotta think there are 353 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: people who thought, you. 354 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: Know, if he gets shot, that would take care of 355 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 1: the problem. But I don't know. 356 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that's true. But if you're of that bent, 357 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 3: I don't have a great counter. 358 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: Argument for you. Yeah, I'm not willing to go there. 359 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 1: But I'm surprised that. I mean, I have known nothing 360 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: of what I talk here, which makes me perfectly qualified 361 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: to be a talk show host. But I was just 362 00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: surprised that you don't normally have counter snipers when a 363 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: guy who's former president likely to be the next president 364 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: is speaking outdoors. Yeah, I just I'm surprised that that's 365 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: not just a regular thing. Yeah, me too, Me too. 366 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 3: Just to finish my previous thought, I remember at the 367 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 3: time saying virtually this were for word. My only counter 368 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 3: argument to the conspiracy theorist types is oh no, no, no, 369 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 3: the Supreme the Supreme Court. The Secret Service is this 370 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: incompetent that they will leave a rooftop with direct line 371 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 3: of sight to a presidential candidate unsecured. 372 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: Time. And that's it's hard to believe the reporting from 373 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: a sources. Ultimately it's a Secret Services responsibility, I suppose, 374 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: But the very close knowledge from a source is that 375 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 1: you coordinate with local law enforcement and hope they do 376 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: what you ask them to do. The Secret Service cannot 377 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,400 Speaker 1: order people around. They can just ask and the local police. 378 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 1: Butler police were supposed to secure that building, and they 379 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: decided it was too hot outside to be up on 380 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: that roof, so they didn't. Wow. Wow. 381 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 3: If that is the case the vision I think most 382 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 3: Americans have of the incredibly secure perimeter around the president 383 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: or presidential candidates, even that's fantasy, it's not. It's conditional 384 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 3: on whether it's hot out or not lovely. Well, if 385 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 3: you're hoping for accountability, you're going to go away disappointed. 386 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,719 Speaker 3: One more clip at least, Michael. So it was a 387 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,439 Speaker 3: cascade of errors. It was just one error after another. 388 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 2: When we talked to the people in charge of security, 389 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 2: everybody pointed a finger at someone else. 390 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:22,159 Speaker 1: We said, who was responsible for that roof? 391 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 2: The roof of the assassin lay with a direct sideline. 392 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: Nobody wanted responsibility. Everybody said it with somebody else. There 393 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 2: was plenty of time to take him off the stage. 394 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 2: The suspicious person with a rangefinder who became the shooter. 395 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 2: Many times he was spotted by police with suspicion. That 396 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: should have been enough to take the president off the stage. 397 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 2: Even with him on the roof. There was about a 398 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: three minute period when he could have been taken from 399 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 2: the stage, and yet no one was fired. Some of 400 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 2: these people could be in charge of security for another 401 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 2: presidential candidate, and really that's a danger that some one 402 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 2: of the people that we're in charge at Butler could 403 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: be in charge. 404 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 1: Again, that's not right. Yeah, darn it the whole everybody 405 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: blames somebody else and nobody ever gets fired. Thing is 406 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: the biggest problem anytime you have one of these government investigations. 407 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 3: And Ran Paul with a timely reminder of again what 408 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 3: we discussed at the time, that this guy was seen 409 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 3: multiple times identified as a suspicious character up on the roof, 410 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 3: had a sighting device, I mean, and the president just 411 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 3: went ahead and took the stage and talked for some 412 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 3: time as everybody's saying, there's some weirdo on the roof 413 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 3: with a direct line of side at the president, and 414 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 3: nobody thought, you know, why don't we say, hey, there's 415 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 3: a technical problem. 416 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. 417 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 3: I just it's it's well, it's disillusioning. 418 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: Did Rand Paul get to it at any point? Because 419 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: I didn't see that interview. I wish I had. I 420 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: should have watched that one instead of one about tariffs. 421 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: But did Rand Paul to get to any place where 422 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: he believes it's less likely to happen in the future, 423 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: or is it just as likely to happen in the future. 424 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 1: You know, that's an interesting question. I don't remember. 425 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 3: There was certainly an implied we're working like crazy to 426 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 3: clean up the mess in the Secret Service. He mentions 427 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,400 Speaker 3: that there wasn't really any disciplinary action until after they 428 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,879 Speaker 3: subpoenaed for information. 429 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: And we'll go ahead and play eighty three. Michael. 430 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 5: So when you say someone's not telling the truth, is 431 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 5: it that there was no record of requests in denials? 432 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 5: Was this knowingly misleading Congress or was this like a 433 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 5: culture of cover up within the agency? 434 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: I think it was a cultural cover up for the agency. 435 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: They did not want to assess playing, they did not 436 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 2: want to look internally, and they wanted to discount any 437 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 2: of their actions that might have led to this. This 438 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 2: was a covery or ass sort of moment. 439 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: And I do believe that they did know. 440 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 2: There's no way that the Director of Secret Service that 441 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 2: she did not know that these requests have been made. 442 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: And so yes, it was a huge failure. 443 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 3: This is a fairly standard situation in government too, where 444 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 3: and I'm not criticizing ran Paul because I think he's 445 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 3: really trying to get to the. 446 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 1: Bottom of it. 447 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,200 Speaker 3: But what I just heard there was, well, there was 448 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 3: a rotten egg in the cart and Aaron we've gotten 449 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 3: read of her. So everything's fine now. But the culture 450 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 3: of Cya does that remain? Have we looked into the 451 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 3: relationship between the Secret Service and local law enforcement, which 452 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: I that makes perfect sense to me. They cannot, you know, 453 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 3: command a deputy sheriff to go do something. 454 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 1: It's a good point. So is that good enough? And 455 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: what do we think of it? And Netta Yahoo hinted 456 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: that you know, this kid was part of an Iranian plot. 457 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 1: There's no evidence of that whatsoever. It's I think it's worse. 458 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,080 Speaker 1: I don't know. If you read the articles that came 459 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: out over the weekend about the crook, is that his name, 460 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 1: the want to Be Assassin? Any of the articles about 461 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: him and his family and everything like it, very dysfunctional 462 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,959 Speaker 1: family and all kinds of strangeness, strangeness in his life. 463 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: I think it makes it worse that it's not an 464 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: Iranian plot or some high level, complicated, three dimensional chess 465 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: sort of plan, that just a random weirdo kid who, 466 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 1: for strange reasons things he wants to kill the president 467 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: could almost pull it off. Is worse than if it 468 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 1: were an Iranian plot. Yeah, I know what you mean. Yeah, 469 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: sloppy idiot. 470 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 3: Eh. Oh, thank god the bullet missed. You know, if 471 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 3: you don't believe in God, well that's a hell of 472 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 3: a good break. 473 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. And so then, you know, it makes it easier 474 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 1: to look back on previous assassinations or failures like happened 475 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: October seventh in Israel or whatever, and just realize, yeah, 476 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: a cascading series of failures can happen sometimes and you 477 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: end up with a result like that. Yeah. 478 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 3: The one thing I learned from talking to a high 479 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 3: placed military source is the incredible importance of redundancies in systems, 480 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 3: where if System A goes out, specifically in this case 481 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 3: it was for communication, you have to have system B 482 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 3: and system C, and everybody has to be on the 483 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 3: same page of when and how you go from one 484 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: thing to the other to the other, because it is 485 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 3: moment to moment life or death in the military. But 486 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:31,479 Speaker 3: it seems to me like in the case of October seventh, 487 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 3: you know, if somebody was on vacation or it was 488 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 3: the sabbath so his phone was off or whatever. 489 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,479 Speaker 1: There was no Okay, we go to plan B. There 490 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: is no Plan B. And the idea that. 491 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 3: You just ask the sheriff's deputy is if they could 492 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 3: please secure that building. And just that there's no second 493 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 3: layer of accountabilities is bothersome to me. Again, given up 494 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: with it, given that we all have assumed that it's ironclads, 495 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 3: it's world leading. You can't get near the president. Yeah, 496 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,120 Speaker 3: unless you're a twenty year old ne'er do well who 497 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 3: just wants to be famous or something and. 498 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: Takes practically the easiest shot in the whole area, just 499 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: climbs up there and lays there with a rifle. I know. 500 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: It's just astounding, and it can't he can't. Like you said, 501 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:18,919 Speaker 1: it can't be. We asked them to and they didn't. 502 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,360 Speaker 1: There's got to be another. 503 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 3: Layer of some aw shocks those dumb local guys. 504 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 1: And whatever it costs will unfunded. I guess. Yeah, yeah, man, 505 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: oh man, oh man. Okay, Well that's unsatisfying, as. 506 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 6: As is almost not almost every investigation and any government 507 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 6: failure I can think of in my lifetime, the investigation 508 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 6: is always completely unsatisfying. 509 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: Blame a building. 510 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 3: And if you can find well, if you can find 511 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 3: a person to blame, blame that person, put the goat's 512 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 3: horns on him and run him out of town as 513 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 3: if that solved the problem. And if you can't find 514 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 3: that person, you blame the building, and you just. 515 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: Hope that it doesn't happen again. Uh nearly kill the 516 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: president or a financial meltdown for the entire world or 517 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: whatever you know you want to want it to be. 518 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,399 Speaker 1: You just hope it doesn't happen again. God dang it, 519 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: that's frustrating. If you have any thoughts on that, we'd 520 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: like to hear him.

It's uh, it's pretty 525 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: nutty in my opinion, and a whole bunch of other stuff. 526 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 1: So to stay here. Are you into the teddy bear 527 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: wrapped in human skin story? I'm aware of it. Found 528 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: in California sidewalk. You've really out to warn people for you, 529 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: you know, I want to get people's attention. You got 530 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: to cut through the clutter. It's hard today. Done, so 531 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: we'll get to that story a little bit later. Great Scott, 532 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: if i'd kind of put that out of my mind. Yeah, yeah. 533 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,239 Speaker 1: So here's my favorite headline.

Uh 534 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: mailbik Ellen DeGeneres supports Rosy O'Donnell as Donald Trump threatens 535 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: to strip her US citizenship. Forgot this. Trump was threatening 536 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: to take Rosee o'donald's citizenship. 537 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 3: A buddy of mine who I played golf with, OK, 538 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 3: who's very pro Trump. He's like Donald, No, No, here's 539 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 3: the president. 540 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: Hi. Cut on. 541 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 3: But here's your freedom loving quote of the day from 542 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 3: the Great Thomas Sowell, continuing on our series of his brilliance. 543 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 3: This is one of his Mount Rushmore quotes. It's tough 544 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 3: to pick one of his anyway. It is hard to 545 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 3: imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making 546 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of 547 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 3: people who pay no no price for being wrong. 548 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: Hmm. That's a good one. Amen to that. Thomas mailbag. 549 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 3: Drops no bailback at Armstrong and Geeddy dot com.

Keep it shortish If he can bless 551 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: you know you're a great writer with an amazing experience 552 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 3: and brilliant insights. 553 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: Then they stretch. 554 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 3: Out a little bit be rights. Hello fellas Bury from Thailand. 555 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 3: Here yesterday, being the anniversary of the attempted Trump assassination, 556 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 3: I'm reminded of how little we've discovered about the shooter 557 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 3: and his family is. Eric Trump commented, this guy was 558 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 3: cremated quicker than a family pet. 559 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't think there's much to discover. Honestly, I don't 560 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: think either. 561 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 3: I mean, if a crazed, miserable loaner who craves attention 562 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 3: will slaughter a room full of innocent little children, one 563 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 3: would certainly take a pot shot at a presidential candidate. 564 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: We've talked easy math for me. We've talked about this 565 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: a lot. One of the reasons conspiracies like this can 566 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: grow is it's tough for us to wrap our heads 567 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: around the idea of just some average local dope could 568 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 1: change world history. We don't like that, right, so we 569 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: prefer to believe there's much bigger forces involved. 570 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 3: And Barry includes a haikuda mark the occasion, and for 571 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 3: once in my life, I'm refusing to read a hike 572 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 3: Wow look at you with your restraint. Ryan from Houston, 573 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: Dear Big Freedom and old simple Jack. Gavin Newsom AOC 574 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 3: and many Democrats decry the ice raids, but I never 575 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 3: seem to hear what they want our immigration laws to be. 576 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: Well, nobody forces them to say. 577 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 3: We can't continue to have a semi open border and 578 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 3: have people sneak in too, be in legal limbo by 579 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 3: being illegally in the country, but nobody enforcing the laws. 580 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 3: So I'd like to know, Gavin Newsom and others, what 581 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: are your immigration laws? 582 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: What should they be? I do have, though, a friend 583 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: of a friend account of somebody who's been trying to 584 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: do it the right way for years and who got 585 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: grabbed up, and and it's just that's it's not good 586 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: at all. Yeah, So we'll get to that a little 587 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: bit later. I mean, we can't be doing that. 588 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 3: It is horrifying and almost hilarious that that very question, 589 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 3: really of both sides, combined with why haven't you done 590 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 3: it yet, is never asked in this discussion. Reams of coverage, 591 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 3: hours and hours of the talking heads, and nobody says, 592 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 3: all right, what should the laws be? 593 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 2: Then? 594 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,920 Speaker 1: How do we enforce them? I mean It's like it 595 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 1: doesn't even occur to people to ask the question enough 596 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 1: to make you shake your head on the top of 597 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: your pocket fork. Jack A. 598 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 3: Money writes Jack should ditch the bush League pocket fork 599 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 3: and go pro. He should have a custom holster for 600 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 3: his fork made so he can wear it as a 601 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: side arm when he approaches something like a bakery counter 602 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 3: and a supermarketer or a buffet with his hand just 603 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 3: above the holster fork showing he's ready to draw people 604 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 3: in line would know they better just step aside. 605 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: I've got the pocket fork right here. This is where 606 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: I took it out of my pocket and decided I'm 607 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: not carrying around a fork anymore. Yeah, there's a major 608 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: step forward for me. And it's been sitting right here 609 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: for quite some time. A four. If you weren't listening 610 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: at the time, I kept in my pocket so that 611 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: I could like stop at a grocery store, get pie, 612 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: walk out and eat it in the parking lot in 613 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 1: my car. And Imani wants you to go in the 614 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: other direction with like a custom made fork in a holster. 615 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:28,640 Speaker 1: But no, no, okay, fair enough, let's see Garrick and 616 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: Davis writes, Jack's head will explode if he watches the 617 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: new Superman. Oh really, I watched the new Jurassic Park. 618 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: I'll have to talk about that later. 619 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 3: Okay, I'll keep it as short as I can without 620 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 3: big spoilers. I'm gonna skip mostly most of it. It's crazy, 621 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 3: how off the wall, goofy and stupid this movie really is. 622 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 3: Director James Gunn took what everyone knows about Superman, he 623 00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,080 Speaker 3: can fly, his powers, his suit, then basically just wrote 624 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 3: his own character and universe, so took the very very 625 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 3: basis of the character than just completely reinvented the thing. 626 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: It's a gamble. That's fine. 627 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 3: It's not like it's the Book of Genesis. It's a 628 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 3: comic book carrier. Somebody came up within the thirties or whatever. 629 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 3: I just I don't worry about that much. And Jared 630 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 3: in Missouri actually makes pretty good to point about the 631 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 3: Superman movie because the story was according to some that 632 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 3: the movies kind of woke in his story about it, 633 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 3: your brave immigrant blah blah blah. 634 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 1: I've heard this so many times and then seen the movies, 635 00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: and it's bulls. 636 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 3: I wish I could say the word, yeah, it's a 637 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 3: tiny percentage of blown up way out of proportion, and yeah, 638 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 3: but Jared actually makes this point which I liked. 639 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: This can so easily be flipped. 640 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 3: Superman is a success story about an immigrant who integrated 641 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 3: in the American culture. 642 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: He loved his new home and used. 643 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 3: His success to give back and fight for truth, justice 644 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 3: in the American way. 645 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,879 Speaker 1: Perfect or you cannot think about politics at all when 646 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: you go to movies like this, which would be a 647 00:34:53,800 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 1: good idea. So you wanted Hillary to win and Getty
