And hey everybody today we're 17 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: under the tutelage of our general manager John Bolton's beard 18 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: is a beard? Now, no never has That's my point. 19 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: The mustache, yes, the beard? Where is it? What is 20 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: he hiding? Why? No beard? So do we have access 21 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 1: to that little Biden clip? He just that just happened 22 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: just before the intro. Okay, hold On sens the music 23 00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: before we gotta play this because I had heard it described, 24 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: I hadn't actually heard it. Oh boy, I heard a 25 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: Biden came out of his cave yesterday and and I thought, wow, 26 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: he sounds like he's got a cold or or something 27 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: or a foot in the grave. He's got a cold 28 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: or a foot in the grave. And I thought it 29 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: was interesting because Trump had tweeted he had two points. 30 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: The first point was why is Biden hiding? Is it 31 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 1: because he can only read things on a teleprompter? You 32 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 1: know whatever, That's your kind of typical shot. But then 33 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: the next, the next blast from Trump against Biden was 34 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: did they think the more he's exposed, the worst he does? 35 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: And I thought, well, that is exactly what they're doing, 36 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: and most strategy agree. Biden has said it out loud. Yeah, 37 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: I think he would he would agree with that. Um 38 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: that yeah. But anyway, so this this is one of 39 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: his statements. Here, folks. If you thought Trump v. Hillary 40 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: was a trouble election, Trump v. Near dead Biden is 41 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: whole boy and heard the American He's a president who 42 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: would do the work. I'm ready in day one after 43 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: more than three years in office, Why isn't Donald Trump ready? 44 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: Mr President?

Thank you, Holy that was the end. That 47 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: was the hammer. That was quite something that would drop him. 48 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 1: Wake up. And then like five seconds past thank you 49 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: with the little breath he had left.

Up and 53 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: there's the left foot, both feet in the grave, like O, 54 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: thank you, Mr wake up? Wow. I thought when I 55 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: heard him yesterday, I thought, does he have a cold 56 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: or something? That that that made me sad. What he 57 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: has is a case of mortality. He got a cute mortality, 58 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: acute case of the time.

It was quite interesting and some of you 123 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: know this probably from watching TV. Many of you don't. 124 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: We're doing a ride along with the San Francisco Police Department. 125 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: A number of years ago in one of the more 126 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: uh difficult districts of that increasingly formerly great city. But 127 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 1: we rolled into a housing project with the coppers and 128 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: immediately echoing from end end to this giant like apartment 129 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: that was several acres. You heard who everywhere? Has everybody 130 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: learned everybody else that the coppers were on hand? It 131 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: was interesting they could teach my wife something. Now she knows.

Thank you. Let's 135 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:55,720 Speaker 1: begin officially now. According to CC rules and regulations at Mark, 136 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg is pro moding the extremist. I'm because Mark 137 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: Zuckerberg is actually his site. The Zuckerberg site has actually 138 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: set up set up like add promotions that actually push 139 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: people towards expremis. Yp Scarborough is yelling about Facebook. Apparently 140 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: there that's a joy Scarborough. Um, yeah, it seems to 141 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: me just from watching the MSNBC, is that Facebook is 142 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: the right wing crazy channel. Now according to MSNBC, okay, 143 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: for those what's the rights Twitter, it's it's gonna be Facebook, 144 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: And I don't know how terms would feel about that, 145 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: but yeah, which is interesting because you know, it's certainly 146 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: not what Martin Zuckerberg's politics are, so Mark Zuckerberg him. 147 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: He also just Joe Scarborough there, he's uh, he's also angry. 148 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: There was a lot, apparently of the stuff about him 149 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: murdering that girl. Um was floating around Facebook and not 150 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,599 Speaker 1: being taken down. And he's claiming that some of the 151 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: guidelines or whatever. Um, how's mail bag? Look? Oh, it's 152 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: it's nice, a little humor, a little insight, good, good, 153 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: well balanced, like your diet now that you're eating vegetables. 154 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: Some of those towns in Arizona I visited a couple 155 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: of weeks ago are now passing ordinances that you have 156 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 1: to wear masks. So remember I was astonished that it's 157 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: as if the virus doesn't even exist here. It's like 158 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: in a life. Well, they've decided that was a bad 159 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: idea right in the midst of when I was there, 160 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: So I gotta admit I'm keeping an eye on getting 161 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: any symptoms and need to check in with my parents also, 162 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: since we are all, you know, out and about and 163 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 1: around them and they're they're old Uh yeah, some of 164 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: the places where they were not treating it quite as 165 00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: as scary. I've changed their mind. They would seem, well, yeah, 166 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: that's sensible. If you don't have many cases, you don't 167 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: have much exposure, it's just not a problem. You shouldn't 168 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 1: be acting like it's a big problem. The key is, 169 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: you know, not acting too late, especially if you're on 170 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: the older side or more vulnerable. Uh So, I got 171 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, we got all this stuff to catch you 172 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: up on. We'll have to listen to the more energetic 173 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden compare and contrasting with the energetic John McCain 174 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: from back in the day. I think that's really a 175 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: good comparison right there. Our text line is FO five 176 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: k f TC are strong and show. See former Sex 177 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,960 Speaker 1: Death and c I chief Robert and Gates yesterday saying 178 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: they should take those Confederate generals off of our basis. 179 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: I thought that was interesting. That decides it for me. 180 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm now fully in that camp. Yeah, I like old 181 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 1: man Gates and he man good. But he said we 182 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: don't have a fort Ulysses grant. Yeah, how can that be? Well, 183 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: it can't be saved the union. You can't you can't 184 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: have that. They don't have a Fort Patton in spite 185 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: of the soldier slap an incident. Well, the grand one 186 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: is particularly uh makes the point because most of these 187 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: are named after Confederate generals. If we're on a Confederate 188 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: if we're on a Civil War kick for naming basis, 189 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: you might want to throw in the winning general. I 190 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: would say, yeah, yeah, that was an excellent point. Mailbag down. 191 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: There's part of me the things. It's kind of cool 192 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: that this country, you know, we healed and came together, 193 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,559 Speaker 1: and and part of the healing process was Okay, Uh, 194 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 1: Proberty Lee was an honorable man, and he was doing 195 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: what he thought was right. All Right, we'll name stuff 196 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: after him. Okay, we don't hate chi. We want you 197 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: back in the Union. It's the very American thing to do. 198 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: It's it's a little odd anyway. I didn't go to 199 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: a Grant grade school. I think school named Grants. So 200 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: there are schools named after but no major military basis. 201 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 1: Never in my life have I attended a school named 202 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: after anything except the town I lived in. I guess 203 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: that town just wasn't in the name of the things. 204 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: I went to a Jefferson. I went to a grant. 205 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,120 Speaker 1: I went to a number of schools. I went to 206 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: a Suttur there you go, oh California, probably, Well, what 207 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,480 Speaker 1: was the school I went to? Kindergarten? I think it 208 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 1: was just like, uh, you know, it's just named after 209 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: where it was. More or less. Um, I've never had 210 00:13:55,280 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: these issues. Here's your freedom, love and quote of the day. 211 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: It's from Evie Lucas. I didn't know Evie Lucas, so 212 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 1: I went googling around her. I'm binging around. I'm sorry. 213 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: Google is evil. He was a humoriston writer lived from 214 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: late eighteen hundreds into like the nineteen thirties or something. 215 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: He was a brit A thinker. He said, the truth 216 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: is the only thing worth having, and in a civilized 217 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: life like ours, where so many risks are removed, facing 218 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: it is almost the only courageous thing left to do. 219 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty good stuff, and I went 220 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: looking for more E. V. Lucas quotes and I found 221 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: lists of them, and none of them was very good. 222 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: Apparently this was his you know, shot her and around 223 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: the world. But that's a great quote. Facing the truth 224 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: is about the most courageous thing we can do. These days. 225 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 1: There's some quote from Orwell, though I don't have it memorized, 226 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: about how difficult that is. Though sometimes even when it's 227 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: right in front of your nose, it's just and everybody's 228 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 1: pitching a different version of it too. Here's a note 229 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: from Hendricks. I'm sorry, Hendrick. This is on the topic 230 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: of Aunt Jemima, the Syrup brand mascot. I believe there's 231 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: a Miss Buttersworth controversy today actually, so we'll get into that. 232 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: The syrup battles so Uh, the PepsiCo that owns Uh 233 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: and Miamma. The aunt Jemima brand has ended it because 234 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 1: of racist connotations that nobody's quite sure what they mean. 235 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: But um, I guess in the past it wasn't anyway. 236 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: The name itself was from like a play about I 237 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: think that the slave Mammy that that kind of archetype 238 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: with the actual name fair enough, and the idea that 239 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: a slave mammy came up with a great syrup recipe 240 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: is bad. That's that's what I don't get it. Hendrik 241 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: Rice says young immigrant. Many years ago, I moved into 242 00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: my own place for the first time, go to the 243 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: grocery store. I bought food, toiletries, cleaning suplies. I was 244 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 1: not fluent in English, so I relied in many cases 245 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: on pictures on the products I thought I needed and 246 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: the cleaning supply section. I noticed a bottle with a 247 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: picture of a bald headed muscular man. I decided to 248 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: buy it. I used it for spills, clumsy Baba. Ever 249 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 1: since then, I've had very favorable first impressions when I 250 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: meet bald headed muscular men. This goes to your point 251 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: that I don't think using the syrup has led me 252 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: to any negative feelings about black women. I never thought 253 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: about it at all, right, and I certainly didn't look 254 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 1: up his privilege. I certainly didn't look up the history. 255 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: The first green giant I see, Jolly are not is 256 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: getting a earful for me to right or otherwise? Dan writes, 257 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: Now if another company uses the aunt Jemiama logo, will 258 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: PepsiCo sue saying they own her? Oh that's uh, that's uncomfortable, 259 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: Mike says, I fear for the nation. As we approached 260 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: in November election, good chance the virus will still be 261 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: impacting our movements. Walking not bowel and blanket and mail 262 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: voting is already in place, and and he imagines the 263 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: scenario that you imagine, Jack, Um, there are widespread reports 264 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 1: of voter fraud, missing ballants, people that couldn't get into 265 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: the polls, et cetera. Um, and and the media will 266 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 1: frame it is Trump trying to stay in office pass 267 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: January the usual. Trump declares without evidence and it just 268 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: melts down. Either way, we'll have another case of the 269 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: Scotis deciding when to stop investigations. And we know how 270 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 1: well that worked for Bush. The Internet and cell phone 271 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: videos are single handedly changing our nation culture for the worst. 272 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: I'm not sure I agree with that completely with its Okay, 273 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: I don't need to the internet is I don't know 274 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: about cell phone videos we're seeing in It allows you 275 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,199 Speaker 1: to for the videos to fly around. Yeah. Yeah, And 276 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: how much time do we have my thirty seconds?

They can sell 284 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 1: whatever they want, ulysses, grant, bubble heads, commemorative coind whatever, 285 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: Armstrong and see Armstrong Andy Show, quake up.

He came out of the 289 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: basement for a for a little statement. He hasn't done 290 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: taken questions. I think you're incorrect. I think that is 291 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 1: one nursing home resident to another.

Yeah, oh, yeah, absolutely, 331 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: because there's never been anything like the number that came 332 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:24,360 Speaker 1: out today ever prior to, you know, ten weeks ago. 333 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: So that's worth mentioning and maybe talking about again later. 334 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:29,879 Speaker 1: So the charges did come out yesterday from the on 335 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: the Atlanta Police Department Fulton County charging that officer who 336 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: shot the dude at the Wendy's. If you've been following 337 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: that story, he is facing eleven charges in all, and 338 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: could be sentenced to death in if convicted, felony murder charges. 339 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: In light of that huge uptick in the number of 340 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:54,959 Speaker 1: officers there in Atlanta calling in sick, um, I'm not 341 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 1: coming to work, Atlanta announced we do have enough officers 342 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,119 Speaker 1: to keep the city safe. But we have had an 343 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: uptick in the number of officers calling out of work tonight. 344 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: That's right after the chargers came in. It's interesting we 345 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: played that clip. Maybe we had to play it again. 346 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: I don't remember what time in the show we played it. 347 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: That Georgia sheriff who's been training training officers in Atlanta 348 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: for years, as he said, hundreds officers over all kinds 349 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: of counties for years, and he said that was a 350 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: perfectly justified shooting. Um he's a black guy, by the way, 351 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean he's right. I don't know. I'm not 352 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I'm not a lawyer or whatever. 353 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,440 Speaker 1: But that's an interesting conundrum there. You got a guy 354 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: who's trained officers all over the states in in in 355 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 1: that state saying that wasn't okay shooting, and he got 356 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: charges of felony murder with the with the death penalty 357 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: hanging out there. Um. Well, the the latest is that 358 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: video has emerged of the cop after the the gentleman 359 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: was down shot of kicking him, and the thinking on 360 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: the prosecutors is that helps established that he wasn't shooting 361 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: them in any public interest. He was shooting him because 362 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: he was super angry that the guy had fought him. 363 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 1: You know that certainly was not cool that he kicked him. 364 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: The other guy stood on him. I haven't seen the videos. 365 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 1: I can't imagine any balanced like with both feet. Um. 366 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: But anyway, so I I suggested yesterday, and I believe 367 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: I am correct that they were going to overcharge to 368 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: keep peace in the streets. They're gonna go way over 369 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,359 Speaker 1: the top with the charges. And you know, during the 370 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: whole lawyer's john at each other process, a lot of 371 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: those charges will be reduced or dropped and or the 372 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: prosecutors will make sure if it goes to trial, and 373 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: probably will that the jury has multiple options, including lesser charges. Guarantee. 374 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: That's what's happening here. Yeah, Well, the police chief did 375 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: resign immediately. You never know what that means though, there 376 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: are so many different circumstances saying I do know what 377 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 1: it means. But she did resign immediately, and uh she 378 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: said she was horrified at what she saw. So what 379 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 1: is trying to keep a city from burning down is? 380 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,679 Speaker 1: And what is what police officers actually think? I don't know, 381 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: right right, hey, And everybody's so on edge if you 382 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: do the wrong thing, everything goes kurb bluie. One more time. 383 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: I just need to hear but after this, after this, 384 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 1: I need to hear the Biden clip one more time. 385 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 1: I want to hear his whole ending because it trails. 386 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,639 Speaker 1: I mean, it's such a downward trend. And Michael, you 387 00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: said you have another example, one of the clips of 388 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: him a little longer, but maybe we'll look into that. Yeah, 389 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: and I have a theory why he's doing that. I 390 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: think he may be overdoing it. But I'll hit you 391 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: what why Joe Biden is taking the I'm just so 392 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: calm approach. Okay, you could probably read my mind. But 393 00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: first note from our friends.

We haven't heard 417 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: yet that you like my goal Before we revisit one. 418 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: We've played let's just for weeks in January and February 419 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 1: all but I wasn't alone. I was raising my concerns. 420 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 1: But how we need to take this virus seriously? We 421 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: still don't have what we need when it comes to 422 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: rapid results testing, contract contract contact tracing capacity that happens 423 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 1: I do that every day, stumbling, fumbling, bumbling. I do 424 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 1: that every day. I'll do it. This half hour doesn't 425 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: mean anything. Hey, yeah, you go ahead. American needs a 426 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: president who do the work. I'm ready in day one 427 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,719 Speaker 1: after more than three years in office. Why isn't Donald 428 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: Trump ready? Mr President? Wake up, get to work. There's 429 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: so much more to be done. Will you do that 430 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: this half hour? Second? Nap? No, I won't do that. 431 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: That is a slow pace. So I assume you're you're 432 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: thinking you want to be the contrast to the loud, 433 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: frenetic controversy every day, everybody at each other's throats Trump era. 434 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: But I think you're right. I think he's going a 435 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 1: little too far. He sounds sorry to throw around medical terms. 436 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: What he sounds outfitting one ft in the grave? Oh 437 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: some of them in Laudon is famous for saying when 438 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: and I never agreed with this and thought it was 439 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,200 Speaker 1: a horrific, But he was famous for saying, when people 440 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 1: to see two horses fighting, they root for the strong horse, 441 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 1: and that we just have a human nature to be 442 00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: rooting for the strong, the person that appears to be strong. 443 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: How many horse fights have you attended? I have never 444 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: either and and the idea that and the idea that 445 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: if I do see a horse fight, I'm root for 446 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: the one that's dominating the other one to like really 447 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: put an end to it. I just that's not the 448 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: way I would react that as a different sort of person. 449 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: But that was his talking about base human emotions. He 450 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: thought people would rally to the strong side his side. Um. 451 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if that factors in with Biden and Trump, 452 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: where you know he's trying. Biden's trying to be, as 453 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 1: you said, the counterweight to frenetic and loud, but or 454 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 1: are people going to react with I just think I 455 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: need something with a little more zip exciting He ain't. Well, 456 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: you know, exciting is not what I need out of 457 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: a president. But just I mean subconsciously energizing, you know, 458 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: somebody who makes you well, who gives you energy, energy 459 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: for the country to accomplish something inspiring, little inspired. I 460 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: would love to be in those rooms on the Biden 461 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: campaign where they're making the decisions on how to handle this, 462 00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: because this is some really fascinating um what do you 463 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: call it strategy? Um? How to handle this they they 464 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 1: have It would seem such an opportunity to win if 465 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: people are just tired of the craziness, right, whether whether 466 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: whether a lot of the craziness is Trump's fault or not, 467 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: just people they just you know, I need I need 468 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: to rest. I think everybody feels like they need a 469 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: break from the news cycle. And if to the extent 470 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: that they can feel like, you know, if you got 471 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: rid of Trumpet, would it would be easier? But how 472 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 1: far can you go with that and keeping your guy 473 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: under wraps. Well, they're looking at the polls and thinking 474 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: so far, so good. Well, yeah, why they put him 475 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 1: out yesterday? He's going up and they barely did you 476 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: heard the speech? What was the thinking that we need 477 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: to put him out yesterday? Well, they have to have him. 478 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: It's a proof of life video effect. They have to 479 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: have him do something. When Kim Jong un showed up 480 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: at that ribbon cut, right, finally he still alive with 481 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: his nasty sister exactly. You just gotta set the rumors 482 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:09,000 Speaker 1: to rest that he's dead and then he goes back 483 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: to doing whatever he was doing. In Joe Biden's case, 484 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: it's just watching the polls and you know, honestly, and 485 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: this is proof of what we've been saying for years 486 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 1: and what y'all have been feeling for years. If Joe 487 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: Biden didn't say a damn syllable, and neither did Donald J. 488 00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: Trump until let's say October the first, that would be fine. 489 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: About five weeks that would be plus painting. I am awake. 490 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,239 Speaker 1: I think if I'm running, I think I keep him 491 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: under wraps. Have him show up at things like ribbon 492 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: cutting ceremonies. You know that kind of thing where there's 493 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 1: really nothing to say. You smile and and say night. 494 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: No no speeches, no, no nothing. Maybe you have like 495 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 1: free go two sentences about it's time we move into 496 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: the future together. You know, just something some just what 497 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: bred nothing, little positive sounding speech you repeat everywhere you 498 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: go and just keep your head down. That's obviously what 499 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: they're doing. Why a lot of our strength is our 500 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: optimism or something. And then you go back in your house. 501 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: Diversity is the strength of America's future. Thank you, Thank you. 502 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: I swear I want give him my jello. You know what, 503 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't have my jello. I don't he doesn't have 504 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: long He should be happy if he's like that on 505 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: a debate stage. Did the numbers flipping like a day 506 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,959 Speaker 1: to the paramedics over come on. Paramedics are down by 507 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: the stage like the guys in the ring and a 508 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: boxing match. And then right you hear murmuring should we 509 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: should we go in? Is he having an episode? I'm 510 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: telling you it's a democratic party, and I know this 511 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: is a positive. Sean's head is gonna explode, But explode 512 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: the party of allegedly the young and the progressive and 513 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: the innovative. And come on, you got some of these 514 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 1: great granddad running the guy's barely hanging on. Well he 515 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: put the old back and old white male, no doubt 516 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: about that. Our text line is four nine five a 517 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: k FTC. Hey the NBA teams ready to get back 518 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: to work. Yesterday, the league proposed a hundred thirteen pages 519 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: or of safety rules and procedures for the rest of 520 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: a shortened season. First of all, all the games will 521 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: be played at Disney World, which, right off the bat, 522 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 1: seems like the least safe place to be during a 523 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: peter pandemic, But they do have many precautions in place. 524 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 1: The players will be housed together, they'll quarantine ahead of 525 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: time and be tested every day. Players will be discouraged 526 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 1: from licking their fingers and clearing their noses on the court. 527 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: Were they encouraged to do that before this? UM? And 528 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: uh so, NBA, it looks like is coming back. Hockey 529 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: is going to come back. That's almost certain at this point, NHL, 530 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: so if you like that with no fans obviously, So 531 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: we have a couple of pieces of breaking news. One 532 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: pretty big earthquake off the coast of New Zealand. Hobbits 533 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: run for your lives. So there's tsunami warming mornings in 534 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,440 Speaker 1: this they live in the ground more or less. And 535 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: this which I uh I think means something for the 536 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 1: whole country. Governor Gavin Newsom of California said he's considering 537 00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:09,359 Speaker 1: announcing mandatory masks for the entire state. So we are 538 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: definitely not moving away from that sort of thing. We're 539 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 1: moving toward it. Party ideas. So you can keep stuff open, 540 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: I guess, so you don't have to close businesses back down. 541 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: That's all we should have done in the first place. 542 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: Businesses stay open. But we have to wear masks. That's 543 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:26,279 Speaker 1: what we should have done in the first place, and 544 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: we wouldn't have another million and a half people out 545 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: of work today. Did you hear Dr fauci Is essentially said, yeah, 546 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: we we said, don't wear masks because we didn't want 547 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,760 Speaker 1: you to buy them all up because the first because 548 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 1: the medical pros needed him. Um, we're just afraid you'd 549 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: all buy all the masks. That is, that is not 550 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: a nine trillion dollar decision. I want him to make 551 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 1: a nine trillion dollar decision. And that's what they think 552 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: it's gonna end up costing shutting down the economy. You know, 553 00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: I'm not for sacrificing nurses and doctors to figure something out. 554 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: Figure something out, make it, you know, make it like 555 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,399 Speaker 1: a World War two style. We send every plane we've 556 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: got to other countries something right, but you don't shut 557 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 1: down the economy. And it cost the nine trillion dollars 558 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 1: because you're worried about running out of mask. You just can't. 559 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: Very crazy to me. The combination of the modern need 560 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 1: for complete safety and and our willingness to let governments 561 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 1: just run our lives, and the flaws of international supply chains. Yeah, 562 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: that too, That is absolutely a good point, especially depending 563 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 1: on dirty commies for your critical needs. Yes, sir, that 564 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:41,880 Speaker 1: is who I was referring to. There aren't actually hobbits 565 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: in New Zealand, right, that's just where they filmed those movies. 566 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 1: You believe what you want to believe this. If you 567 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 1: go there, can you capture when and bring it home? 568 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 1: Or is that Scott? They're human more or less? Kind of? 569 00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: They looked a lot like humans, Sir, disgusting. You can 570 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: catch you a wizard, though. What you do is you 571 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: put them up on top of your tower and enchant 572 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 1: them with a naval spell. Then kick him around a 573 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: little bits of the movies, you know what I'm talking about. 574 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: Keep your eye out for giant moths though, that's how 575 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: they escape, or a bird or something. Anyway, we've observed 576 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: many times recently in recent years, Americans have an odd impulse. 577 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: When they're moved by something, they want to hurl money 578 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,600 Speaker 1: at it via the Internet. And sometimes it doesn't really 579 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: make any sense. You know, if somebody does something nice, 580 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: all of a sudden there's three hundred thousand dollars and 581 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: to go fund me for him, which is you know, 582 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: I like the idea of rewarding or whatever. But somebody's 583 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: a victim of something and then all of a sudden 584 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: they're rich. A small nonprofit is feeling the heat, oddly enough, 585 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: after receiving more than thirty million dollars in the wake 586 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: of George Floyd's death. According to The New York Times, 587 00:36:56,760 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which had only one full time 588 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,759 Speaker 1: worker earlier this month, became a popular cause somehow for 589 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:07,479 Speaker 1: activists and celebrity donors. Now the fund says it's spent 590 00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: two dollars on bailing people out since since protests began, 591 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: and his work on working on doing more. So that's 592 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 1: their main expenditure of bailing out looters. But uh, blah 593 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: blah bah. A number of critics of now a murd Yes, 594 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:25,840 Speaker 1: the backlash, including the Chima Levy Armstrong, former head of 595 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 1: Minneapolis is in double a CP. This is unacceptable. She tweeted. 596 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: We literally have buildings burning down North Minneapolis and black 597 00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 1: businesses and families without essential resources, and there's not a 598 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: single black person on your board who Indeed, the Funds 599 00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,399 Speaker 1: board appears to consist of only white people. But that's 600 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 1: become yet another hot potato because the funds executive director 601 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: Tanya Hansi has been accused on Facebook of lying about 602 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: her indigenous background. O Boy, Little boy, we gotta bring 603 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: in Elizabeth Warren on this one. Hans says the accusations 604 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: are untrue. And her daughter was Native American on her 605 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 1: grandfather's side. Her daughter what but now she's an arbitration 606 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: over her job. Meanwhile, the board's former president who left 607 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: over disputes is back. She's black, um and and everybody's 608 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: angry at each other in arguing. Okay, she wants to 609 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,960 Speaker 1: help people impacted by the harms of mass incarceration. All 610 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 1: anybody knows is they have thirty million dollars and everybody's 611 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: at each other's throats. Thirty million. Yes, that's a lot 612 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 1: of money to spread around to employees of your organization. Ah. Yes, yes, 613 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: this organization will quickly become a profitable racket for somebody. 614 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: A burgeoning chas in Portland gets shut down pretty quickly. 615 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: And we'll check in on the original I would be 616 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 1: South Chaz.
