1 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 2 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center. 3 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:21,639 Speaker 2: Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty Armstrong and Jackie and he. 4 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 3: Arms live from the studio scene Sea Signor. It is 5 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 3: a dially lit room deeper from the bowels of the 6 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getting Communications Compound. Hey, y'all on Tuesday front 7 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 3: of the two legitard general manager. 8 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 1: The Texas Rangers, not the baseball team, the law enforcement guys. 9 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: They're gonna go to Illinois. They're gonna lasso those. 10 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: Wandering legislators and drag them back to far some frontier justice. 11 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: Interesting by brand them, I certainly hope so, it seems 12 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: in case they run off, Yes, so they can be 13 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: easily identified. It seems cruel and unusual to start branding people, 14 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: but it's not unusual if you do. 15 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: It a lot. 16 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: Whatever you got to do to make sure they're your 17 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: cattle or your legislators. How am I just recognize my 18 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: legislator if they don't have a big brand on their neck? 19 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 3: Yeah? 20 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: What if they like run off to Louisiana start legislating, 21 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 1: or Louisiana snatches them up for instance, or Oklahoma. I 22 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: suppose it wouldn't have to be on their neck. But 23 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 1: just for instance, well it's Andy, uh huh uh. Well, okay, 24 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: So I watch a bunch of different cable news channels 25 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: and a lot of people were talking about that, the 26 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: whole Texas redistricting. How big a story is this. It 27 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: seems like Texas legally can do it. If they do it, 28 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: they're gonna end up with five the House will have 29 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: five more Republican seats in a basically tied house. 30 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 2: That seems like a pretty big deal. Yeah, it's a 31 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: huge deal. 32 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: It breaks the precedent the mostly followed President that the 33 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: only redistrict after the census, so you have a new 34 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: snapshot of your population, that sort of thing. We could 35 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: be entering an era of constant redistricting. Also, the Supreme Court, 36 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: as I mentioned yesterday, is looking at a big case 37 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: that has to do with our the ridiculous state of 38 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: our racial laws about redistricting, which are self contradictory and foolish. 39 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: And so yeah, this could be an element in a 40 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: big change in the way congressional districts are drawn going forward. Yeah, 41 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: but I don't quite know because it's hard to find 42 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: non partisan actors on this. But our old friend David 43 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: Drucker was talking about what I was saying yesterday. 44 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 2: Every district. 45 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: Not every district because some states it doesn't matter, but 46 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: lots of districts across the country are already jerry mandered 47 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: to death. They have been doing this, Both parties have 48 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: been doing this forever. In case you don't know this, 49 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: this is one of the most important things to know 50 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: about the country. The two main parties work together and 51 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: draw the lines. You have that one, that'll be a 52 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: safe Democratic seat for you. You'll never have to worry about 53 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: losing it ever. Okay, you have this one. You draw 54 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 1: it this way, you'll have a safe Republican seat and 55 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: never have to worry about together. And then they allow 56 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: for like twenty to thirty out of four hundred and 57 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: thirty five. They allow for like twenty or thirty competitive 58 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: districts in the whole freaking country that you can fight 59 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: over the. 60 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: Rest of them. 61 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: They drew the line so they'd be safe in that 62 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: the two parties will always run run the country. Right, 63 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: not to mention the problems with jerry mandering that if 64 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: you ever look at a map, it just it doesn't 65 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: make any sense. You end up with people that live 66 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: two hundred miles away from you in a rural lifestyle 67 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: and you live in the city or vice versa. But 68 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: they drew the line, so you'd be the same politics, 69 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: and like what your town is doing might have four 70 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: different congressional districts in it, which is nuts. 71 00:03:58,440 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: Right. 72 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: The only thing I'd add to your just cription, which 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: is correct, is that in your one party states like hell, 74 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: you know, Corneer or Illinois or Texas, the one party 75 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: can you know, abandon that whole Let's cooperate and you know, 76 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: as we'll take fifty five, you take forty five percent, 77 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: and they'll just grab everything they can. I mean, for instance, 78 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: the great state of Illinois, fourteen out of seventeen seats 79 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: are Democrat. Well that's what I was gonna' That's what 80 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: I was going to say. Next, here's where it gets 81 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: hard to get the nonpartisan reporting on this, and I'm 82 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: not interested enough to do a deep dive myself. But California, Illinois, 83 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 1: and New York, according to some of my favorite pundits, 84 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: did this long ago. Oh yeah, they maximize the number 85 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: of seats they could have. Texas is just catching up 86 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: to them. So this is the old will you did 87 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: it first, so now I'm doing it. Race to the 88 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: bottom that we've done with absolutely everything in politics nowadays, 89 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: it's a race to the bottom and you blame the 90 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: other side. Well you did it, so I'm now reacting, 91 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: and everybody has their own starting point. It's like the 92 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: Palestinians in the Israelis. It is cute to see the Gavins, 93 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: Newsom and the Kathy's Hocal of the World from New 94 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: York saying, is this redistricting, this gerrymandering is outrageous, This 95 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: is unacceptable. We're gonna have to fight back. No, you've 96 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: been doing it forever. Look at your crazy quilt congressional map. 97 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: That's not an accident. But in the so much hypocrisy. 98 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 1: I've seen this movie before. Now the stories are coming 99 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: out about the Texans hanging out in Illinois and the 100 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 1: partying they're. 101 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 2: Doing and that. I mean, it's just it's a tired 102 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: old movie. Yeah. I saw some polling on the whole 103 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 2: and it's all a stunt. By the way. 104 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: Abbat just has to wait them out, the governor. They'll 105 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 1: get the redistricting passed eventually. There's no use to this. 106 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: It's just a publicity stunt. That is true, but the 107 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: gerrymandering in general is not a stunt, and it happens 108 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: all over the place, and we shouldn't do it. I 109 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: would like it to go away. I don't know how 110 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: we would. They've made it so it'd be almost impossible 111 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,840 Speaker 1: to vote that out. I saw some polling on this yesterday. 112 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 1: What this is from you gov. What Americans think about 113 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: the ability to draw electoral districts in a way that 114 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 1: makes it harder for members of a particular party to 115 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: elect their. 116 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 2: Candidates should be legal. 117 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: Nine percent of Americans think it's a good idea to 118 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: be able to draw districts so that they're safe. 119 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: But that's what we do. 120 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: It's already done, and I don't see how you would 121 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: ever end it since, like. 122 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: I said, they've. 123 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: Now got it all dialed in, so same party is 124 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: going to win every time. They're not going to go 125 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: into Congress and vote for changing it. 126 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court would have to. 127 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 1: Issue some sort of big decisive judgment about how districting 128 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: ought to go, but that's extremely unlikely because I think 129 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: they'd say no, that's for the legislature to decide. 130 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 2: It's not our job. 131 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we will protect the constitution, make sure everybody 132 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: has the vote and is represented. But we're not going 133 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: to go too far down this road. They're going to 134 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: eliminate a lot of the idiotic, racist, racial stuff I 135 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: think next year. But yeah, this will be a mess 136 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: for the rest of our lives and our. 137 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: Children's as well. That's unfortunate. What are you gonna do? 138 00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: I heard the best news I've heard in a long 139 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: time today. We'll have more details in this coming up later. 140 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: Volkswagen announced their flying car and put out a video, 141 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: and if you haven't watched it, it's pretty damn cool. 142 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: I've been promised this since I was five years old. 143 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: And now is it a flying car or is it 144 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: a driving helicopter? It looks like a driving flying vehicle 145 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: more than a flying car. But either way, right, I 146 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: mean clearly the whole propelling you along the ground thing 147 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: is it's not that advanced at this point. It's the 148 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: flying part that really needs to get the emphasis from 149 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: the engineers. 150 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: If you see what I'm saying. 151 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 1: And I got a flying car, I want them to 152 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: get that flying part right. Any compromise you gotta make, 153 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: I can't have as many cup holders to keep this 154 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: thing aloft. 155 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 2: Fine, like does it have like my cyber truck? 156 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: Now the update on the software, the material lighting pulses 157 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: with the music if you want it to, like you're 158 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: in a. 159 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: Nightclub, so you can dance while you drive. 160 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: And I've got it set to do that. And I 161 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: listen to mostly talk radio, so it pulses to talk radio, 162 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: which is kind of funny. So the question I have 163 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: with the flying car. I know how to drive a car. 164 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: I do not know how to fly a plane. So 165 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: is there any training that comes with this?

Henry, on the 342 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: other hand, I don't love the idea. Henry comes home 343 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: and says, worst pup pup. I say, I took him 344 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: to the zoo and they fed him to the lions. 345 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was time and it was very sad. But 346 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 2: now he's being eaten by lime. 347 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 5: So yeah, boof and Finally, the Babylon Bee Texas begins 348 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:09,400 Speaker 5: construction on northern border wall to keep Democrat lawmakers from returning. 349 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: Oh boy, Net and Yahoo announced last night this morning 350 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: plans for a full occupation of Gaza. Well, that'll be 351 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: something to watch, among other things to talk about today, 352 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: Stay with. 353 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: Us, Armstrong and Getty. 354 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 6: Images of Israeli hostage Eviotade da Vid spread around the 355 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 6: world after Hamas released a video showing him digging his 356 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 6: own grave. His brother Eli hopes that an agreement will 357 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 6: be reached to bring Evietad home along with the other 358 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 6: forty nine hostages and nineteen others whom are believed to 359 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 6: be alive. 360 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 4: He should be treated as a human being and not 361 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 4: as a puppet, not as a human skeleton. 362 00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: The israelis Well, we're about to hear from the rather 363 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: of one of the held hostages that looked like they 364 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: were starving. There is the evidence for whether or not 365 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: gozens are being starved is difficult to figure out. The 366 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: Evidence as to whether the hostages are being starved is 367 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: pretty nailed down. Oh yeah, yeah, they have all reported 368 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: back similarly. 369 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 2: Yeah. Next clip. 370 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 6: The Israeli security Cabinet will meet to determine the next 371 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 6: phase of the war. As ceasefire negotiations remain at an impasse, 372 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 6: local media reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Nettan Yahoo is 373 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 6: considering an expansion of military operations across the Gaza Strip. 374 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,199 Speaker 7: We must continue to stand together and fight together to 375 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 7: achieve all our war objectives, the defeat of the enemy, 376 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 7: the release of our hostages, and the assurance that guards 377 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 7: who will no longer pose a threat to Israel. 378 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:01,679 Speaker 1: So as Benjamin Netanyahoo actually going to occupy all of Gaza, 379 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: like he said yesterday. 380 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is so interesting to me. 381 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 1: I've been reading a great deal about, you know, the 382 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: sentiment in Israeli society and the different ideas and plans 383 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 1: people have going forward, and I was a little surprised 384 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 1: to hear that he's talking about going one hundred percent hardcore. 385 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: Let's just do this thing to the end, because it 386 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: seems like the trend is going in the other direction 387 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 1: in Israel, people thinking we can't finish the job. It 388 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: would take years and years, it'd take fifty years a 389 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,400 Speaker 1: guerrilla warfare. We've got to come up with a plan 390 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: B that ensures, you know, sufficient fortifications that October seventh 391 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: never happens again and get some sort of international something 392 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 1: or other into Gaza to maintain order, which to that's 393 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: not even a easy thing to say. To implement it 394 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: is really difficult, true, but to the point of surprise 395 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: that they're going to occupy all of God, here's Leland 396 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: Vittert doing analysis on news Nation today. 397 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 8: So Israel is not really left with a choice for 398 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 8: two reasons. One because they need their hostages back and 399 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 8: they can't have a terror state living next to them. 400 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 2: But two, the pressure by France. 401 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 8: And the UK and the Canadians and now democrats on 402 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 8: the left in the United States, the progressive left that 403 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 8: talks about recognizing a Palestinian state, only forces Israel's hand. 404 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 8: When Israel is supported, they are more likely to make concessions. 405 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 8: When Israel feels isolated and alone, they have to for 406 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 8: their own survival push harder. Weakness in the Middle East 407 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,480 Speaker 8: is provocative and it is dangerous, and Israel can't be 408 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 8: seen by the world in their eyes as cow taling 409 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 8: to pressure. 410 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: His main point being, as he goes on, what's the choice, 411 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: what's your other choice? You said, Plan B, But what's 412 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: the other choice other than occupying all of Gaza? Hamas 413 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: isn't agreeing to our latest final offer, according to the 414 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: New York Times, of give back the hostages and lay 415 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: down your arms. Not a peep out of Hamas. Obviously 416 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: they won't do that, So what's your other choice? I agree, 417 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: how the hell are you gonna do that? But what's 418 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: your other option? 419 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 4: Right? 420 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: I read another great piece I wish I had in 421 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: front of me, where the guy was making the point 422 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:27,199 Speaker 1: that the there was just another sorry, idiotic waste of 423 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: time to state solution conference in some European capital where 424 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: all the diplomats from the euro countries got together and 425 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: a couple of Arab countries and jawed about you know 426 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: what sort of deal they might strike and blah blah blah. 427 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: And the point the writer made was, you're talking about 428 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: a deal that one of the sides does not want. 429 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 1: They've rejected it over and over again. And I'm talking 430 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: about the Palestinian side, the Hamas side of a state. 431 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 6: No. 432 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: They want the Jews to go. So unless your solution 433 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 1: includes that, they're not going to agree to it. And 434 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: if your solution includes that, well that's a non starter anyway. 435 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: So there's a certain contingent. I swear I'm sorry, just 436 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: one more thought. 437 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: I honestly don't understand whether these people are just delusional 438 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: they can't do that diplomatic math in their heads, or 439 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: they're not aware of it, or they're hoping it's not true. 440 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: That's it. I don't get it. 441 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: I've wondered that for many, many years. So this Leland 442 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: Vitter character that we just heard from, he I don't 443 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: know his act, but he was on News Nation and 444 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: he said, I've lived in Israel for I think he 445 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: said fifteen years or something like that. He said he 446 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 1: was the correspondent from Israel on Fox News for ages. 447 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 1: He said, even being on the ground here, he said, 448 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,639 Speaker 1: the politics are impossible to figure out what's going on. 449 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 2: But so I heard some. 450 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: Noises yesterday from a crowd in Israel that says Hamas, 451 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: we've decimated them, they're no longer a threat, so we 452 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: should pull out, and you know, the remaining Hamas is 453 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: not a threat to Israel and let them deal with gods. 454 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: And and that's an interesting argument because okay, Japan attacks 455 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: US and then we leave some of the Japanese military behind. 456 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: You know, we've we've getten a pretty good whooping, but 457 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: we'll go ahead and pull out. 458 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 2: At this point, it seems I don't think we would 459 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: have done that. Well, we didn't do that. 460 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: We didn't do that eighty years ago tomorrow, right right 461 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: to the point that we the Allies were going to 462 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: invade the Japanese mainland and inture horrific Actually we actually wornked, 463 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: which is the new piece of information that has come 464 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: out in the last thirty years. I can't wait to 465 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: talk about that later. What. Yeah, even absent the bomb, 466 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,400 Speaker 1: Even absent the bomb, the Navy had decided we can't 467 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: do it. They we had gotten information that they had. 468 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 1: We thought they had about three hundred thousand troops ready 469 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: to push off our D Day type landing on Japan, 470 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: which was going to be so much bloodier than D 471 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: Day in France. I mean not even close. They had 472 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: almost a million men ready to defend Japan, and we 473 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 1: decided that ain't gonna work. Can't do it. Not an 474 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: option going to surround the island. We are going to 475 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: starve them out, which would have killed way. 476 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: More people than the bombs killed. 477 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, wow, Harry. And it gets back to as 478 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: a similar situation of what you got going on in Israel. Yeah, 479 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: what are you, What are you going to do with 480 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,159 Speaker 1: the remaining people who are dead enders, who are vowing 481 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: to destroy you and kill you and need to chance 482 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 1: you get Are you gonna leave them alone? Well, the 483 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: only alternative was what I referred to earlier. You seal 484 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: them off. Essentially, you render them unable to do significant damage. 485 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 2: The idea that. 486 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: That idea would win the day post October seventh seems 487 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 1: really unlikely to me. I just think I had a 488 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: conversation with a friend over the weekend about this. 489 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 2: This is two things. 490 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: It is the first time the modern digital iPhone world 491 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:06,120 Speaker 1: has been able to a catastrophic military defeat, and how 492 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 1: ugly it is and how sad it is. Well, right, 493 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: I taken it back to World War Two, and the 494 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 1: end of the war has always been taken it back 495 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 1: to August eighty years ago. So one of the biggest 496 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: concerns by the Army of the Navy and President Truman 497 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: Roosevelt too, but President Truman had just taken over, was 498 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 1: how much are Americans willing to put up with. 499 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 2: In terms of dead marines we lost. 500 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: I've got the stats and I'll look them up. We 501 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: lost over half the marine losses were in like the 502 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: last month of the fighting. I mean, it had gotten 503 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 1: really really awful, really really fast, and so the idea 504 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: of an invasion. They finally decided with a million people 505 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: opposing us, our population will not stand for those kind 506 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: of losses, will not support the war any longer. The 507 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: Japanese knew that in democracies, that's the problem you have. 508 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: If you can kill enough people in a democracy of 509 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: a democracy, the people. 510 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 2: Will start to get a weak need. 511 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 1: And if you can you imagine if there had been 512 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 1: TikTok videos of Ewo, Jima and Okinawa and Guadalcanal and 513 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,719 Speaker 1: all that sort of stuff. Who knows what public opinion 514 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 1: might have been. Oh right, right, And that's what they 515 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 1: have in Israel right now, right, or constant footage of 516 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 1: the people of Dresden or Hiroshima or whatever on you know, 517 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: on your phone all day long. They're suffering, and people 518 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: lose their stomach for it because it's sickening. There's a 519 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 1: reason that most armies in the history of the world 520 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: have not trotted their civilian populations out to watch the bloodshed, 521 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: certainly not in the modern world. It's because it's tough 522 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: to take so two things. One we're seeing a catastrophic 523 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: military defeat, and it's tough to take because it's sad 524 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: and siken people die and are hungry, and it's terrible. 525 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: Second thing is and I made this point months ago. 526 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,239 Speaker 1: I read it and it's absolute true, and if you 527 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 1: can come up with a counter argument, I would love 528 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: to hear it. But the point made was that in 529 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 1: the last several centuries, there has never been an example 530 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 1: of a country launching an unprovoked attack on its neighbor 531 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 1: then being defeated, that they didn't lose their land, their sovereignty, 532 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 1: or both. That always happens. How about you're on the 533 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: hook for feeding them right right, No, you and your 534 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 1: attacking regime are not left intact, never for reasons that. 535 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,400 Speaker 2: Are pretty obvious. So I just I don't know. 536 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,640 Speaker 1: Gerald Baker with his opinion piece in the Wall Street 537 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: Journal today, Maybe we'll read from it later. 538 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 2: It's got some gruesome pictures in it. 539 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: Hamas starves Jews and Palestinians, and Israel gets blamed. The 540 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 1: Western press and politicians play along with the terror group's 541 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: ghastly propaganda campaign, and they do because they hate Israel. Uh. 542 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: Politically, it's a problem. World opinion turns against you. 543 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: If if the United States had to make calculations against Japan, 544 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 1: which was the most evil force on Earth. More stats 545 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: on that later, they were worse than the Nazis. Why 546 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: we always credit the Nazis. Japanese were beyond worse than 547 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: the Nazis, but and what they were doing to all 548 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: the countries in their area. If we, even in that situation, 549 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: had to worry about public opinion back in the day 550 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: when you had more of a US raw raw press, 551 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how. 552 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: Israel possibly deals with this. 553 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 1: It's definitely a conundrum of the modern world, which is 554 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: why you completely a moral regime like Vladimir Putins for instance, 555 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: Theirs Shijin Pings has a distinct advantage. They don't care, 556 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: no kidding, They don't have to worry about it, and 557 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: their people don't see the news, or they see news, 558 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: but they don't see the news the real news. 559 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: Got mail back on the way. 560 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: You could weigh in on this topic at any time, 561 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: please do text line four one five two nine five KFDC. 562 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: Reading up on Volkswagen's new flying car that they announced. 563 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: I'll get into the details next hour, but thirty foot 564 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: wing span, I feel like. 565 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 2: That's not gonna fit my garage.

Robert writes, Guys, you remember 585 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: a while back you talked about the definition of stupid 586 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: and the author Carlo Sippola came up with a definition 587 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 1: of a stupid person as and I love this a stupid, 588 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: and he's got a point here. 589 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 2: A stupid person is a person. 590 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 1: Who causes losses to another. 591 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 2: Person or to a group of persons. 592 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: While himself deriving no gain or even possibly incurring losses. 593 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: That's pretty so that differentiates you from being a devious 594 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: person or a dishonest person, or all you do is 595 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: damage anyway, he said. The WNBA is that definition. What 596 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: they're doing with Clark right now, nothing but damage and. 597 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 2: Incurring losses themselves. That's pretty good. Yeah, that's a good point. 598 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:08,959 Speaker 2: Thank you. 599 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: I'd forgotten about that simple a definition. That's really good. 600 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:17,239 Speaker 1: Let's see. Jose from Beautiful Round Rock, Texas writes on 601 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: the topic of vaccines, and I'm gonna skip ahead a 602 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: little bit. He talks about how childhood vaccines often need 603 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: to be boostered to work in. 604 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 2: As an adult. 605 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 1: He says, a no vaccine is absolutely one hundred percent effective. 606 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, he's in the field. He's a retired pediatric nurse. 607 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: No vaccine is absolutely one hundred percent effective. No vaccine 608 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: is absolutely one hundred percent safe. Because of this, parents 609 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 1: are already anxious about childhood vaccines. I will add, particularly 610 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: these days when there's so damn many of them. Then 611 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: the medical establishment outright lied about the COVID vaccines. It 612 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: is absolutely safe and effective. You won't spread covid if 613 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: you've had the vaccine. Children need to be vaccined against COVID. 614 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: And about the pandemic fourteen days stop spread. Masks are effective. 615 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: Protests won't spread covid. It started in a wet market. 616 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: As a result, the anti vax wackos were given credence 617 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 1: and the medical establishment was delegitimized. People stopped trusting all vaccines. 618 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: Fury kids are vaccinated and disease spreads. Of course, having 619 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: millions of unvaccinated people coming in from unvetted third world 620 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: countries doesn't help either. 621 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 2: Right, that is good to get at that. 622 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,880 Speaker 1: So like me and everybody else in the country has 623 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: never gotten a booster for whooping cough, And I got 624 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: whooping cough and it was horrible, and now it's on 625 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: the rise like it hasn't been in half a century 626 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: because it was introduced to the country. Again, I didn't 627 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,600 Speaker 1: need a booster because I wasn't going to come in 628 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: contact with whooping cough. But now you are right, yeah, true, Well, 629 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: and the other point is, and you could write a 630 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: book certainly on this, and we've talked about it plenty 631 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: of times. But the dishonesty and willingness to exercise highly 632 00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: questionable emergency powers and tramp on people's rights during COVID, 633 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: those people who are half smart who are doing that thought, no, 634 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: this is important, We'll get away with it, and they 635 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,200 Speaker 1: didn't think about, all right, what are the the second 636 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: tier effects of completely losing our credibility down the road? 637 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 2: Do you think people are just gonna forget? 638 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 4: Yeah? 639 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 2: No kidding, I'll never. 640 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 1: Look at the I'll never hear CDC says the way 641 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: I did before COVID, right. 642 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 2: Means almost nothing to me. 643 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's six feet stand six of peet apart, 644 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: which I know is completely made up out of whole clove.

How did we arrive 673 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: at a place where the assumption is that the climate 674 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: is supposed to stay in the ideal range for humans 675 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: to live happily in raise crops when our species has 676 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: only been on the planet for a nearly unrecognizable blink 677 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: of an eye.

If it becomes 682 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 1: easier to raise crops in a different area but harder 683 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: in this area, that's clearly a crime, even though that, 684 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean, look at Special Crisis was a lush garden once. 685 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 2: What happened, right, Armstrong and Getty
