WEBVTT - There's A Moron 0:00:01.850 --> 0:00:05.710 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the 0:00:05.750 --> 0:00:07.730 George Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.790 --> 0:00:11.490 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:18.660 And now, here's Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:23.900 --> 0:00:26.380 And you boys ought to be awfully proud to know 0:00:26.440 --> 0:00:28.350 that you're the first ever Milwaukee Brewer team. 0:00:30.740 --> 0:00:38.570 To be world champion. 0:00:38.630 --> 0:00:41.670 So this is a non-sports comment about the Milwaukee Brewers 0:00:41.710 --> 0:00:42.950 winning the World Series last night. 0:00:42.990 --> 0:00:45.210 Pat Murphy, their manager, got his. 0:00:45.310 --> 0:00:50.839 First full-time Major League Baseball managing job at age 64. 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:51.260 Wow. 0:00:52.180 --> 0:00:56.700 And was National League Manager of the Year that year 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.450 and the next year and won the World Series last night. 0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:00.560 Right. 0:01:01.540 --> 0:01:05.550 But he'd been chasing that job his entire post-playing career, 0:01:06.010 --> 0:01:06.310 and they. 0:01:06.230 --> 0:01:09.610 Get it until he was in his mid-60s. Rejected over 0:01:09.730 --> 0:01:10.630 and over again. 0:01:10.650 --> 0:01:15.289 Wow. You know, it's never too late. Or something. Until 0:01:15.330 --> 0:01:18.130 it is. Until it is. Oh, so exciting. 0:01:18.310 --> 0:01:21.110 Or it's idiotic to take your golden years and continue 0:01:21.150 --> 0:01:23.229 to chase a dream that clearly is not meant for you. 0:01:23.250 --> 0:01:27.950 The trick is knowing which. Exactly. 0:01:28.410 --> 0:01:34.810 Yeah. Like Churchill said, never, never, never give up. Unless 0:01:34.830 --> 0:01:37.730 you're one of those American Idol contestants who suck. 0:01:37.810 --> 0:01:38.970 And you really ought to. 0:01:39.300 --> 0:01:39.660 Yeah. 0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:40.460 You're never going to be. 0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:42.940 It's an honorable profession. 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.620 You're not going to make your living as a professional singer, 0:01:45.660 --> 0:01:46.399 which is fine. 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:47.280 Do something else. 0:01:47.540 --> 0:01:49.800 That's the problem with a lot of those things is 0:01:49.820 --> 0:01:54.200 that the saying of if you're going the wrong direction. 0:01:55.100 --> 0:01:57.160 The best thing you can do is turn around and 0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:00.990 go the other direction. Correct, yes. That's progress. 0:02:01.330 --> 0:02:01.550 Yeah. 0:02:02.250 --> 0:02:02.520 Yeah. 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:06.440 Well, that's the trick in knowing, though. If you are 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:09.070 a Pat Murphy, never, never, never give up. 0:02:10.220 --> 0:02:13.720 So we'll go big a little bit later, maybe even 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:15.920 this hour, on the Alaska story. So the New York 0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:19.800 Times breaks the story that the extra Dan Sullivan, you know, 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:22.650 it's always good to keep an extra around in case 0:02:22.660 --> 0:02:23.109 you need it. 0:02:23.150 --> 0:02:24.290 Decoy Dan! 0:02:24.389 --> 0:02:27.510 In Alaska was on purpose. Yeah, no freaking kidding. But 0:02:27.530 --> 0:02:29.530 so the New York Times, that was an exclusive. Here's 0:02:29.550 --> 0:02:33.010 their big exclusive today. NVIDIA chief seen as target of 0:02:33.070 --> 0:02:36.590 Chinese spy plot. So, oh, Wang with the cool leather 0:02:36.610 --> 0:02:39.070 jackets running the most valuable company in the world. And 0:02:39.130 --> 0:02:42.750 more importantly than that, NVIDIA has the best chips in 0:02:42.790 --> 0:02:46.720 the world that everybody wants, including China, for, you know, 0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:48.600 the big AI wars that are going to take over 0:02:48.660 --> 0:02:52.859 the world. And it turns out this very attractive Chinese 0:02:52.900 --> 0:02:54.700 woman named Alice Wang. 0:02:54.720 --> 0:03:01.840 Hey, China, get some more names. You need more names. 0:03:01.980 --> 0:03:05.320 Everybody's named Lee and Wang. You can't have, it's hard 0:03:05.340 --> 0:03:09.000 to follow these stories. Sounds like racism to me, Round Eye. 0:03:09.090 --> 0:03:11.430 They're not relatives or married or anything like that. He 0:03:11.470 --> 0:03:16.940 was just, it just keeps saying a close relationship. All right, 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:17.900 whatever that is. 0:03:18.340 --> 0:03:23.070 Turned out she's a Chinese citizen. She had been funneling 0:03:23.450 --> 0:03:29.790 intelligence information to Beijing for a long time, and they're 0:03:29.850 --> 0:03:31.170 not exactly sure what. 0:03:32.210 --> 0:03:32.510 Mr. 0:03:32.570 --> 0:03:35.520 Wang, one of the most powerful figures in the AI revolution, 0:03:37.860 --> 0:03:43.800 was unaware of this, obviously. The White House was tipped 0:03:43.920 --> 0:03:47.060 off on this last year. Trump was briefed about the 0:03:47.100 --> 0:03:50.530 intelligence findings, which have not previously been reported in the media, 0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.390 and chose not to do anything with the information. Now, 0:03:53.410 --> 0:03:55.450 this is the New York Times take on this, although 0:03:55.490 --> 0:03:56.490 it rings true to me. 0:03:57.190 --> 0:03:57.450 Mr. 0:03:57.510 --> 0:04:01.990 Trump has been wary of disrupting NVIDIA's chip sales, which 0:04:02.050 --> 0:04:04.640 are driving the economy in the stock market. 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:06.640 Yeah, yeah. 0:04:07.700 --> 0:04:10.840 Well, letting a guy know, hey, your squeeze is not 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:14.830 what she seems to be probably wouldn't disrupt the market, 0:04:14.890 --> 0:04:20.390 would it? I mean, I don't get the part that 0:04:20.430 --> 0:04:26.870 would be that disruptive, but clearly I'm missing something. His 0:04:26.910 --> 0:04:31.789 girlfriend is funneling secrets to the Chinese government. You don't 0:04:31.810 --> 0:04:35.950 think that might change stock market thinking about how valuable 0:04:36.029 --> 0:04:38.850 and unique NVIDIA chips are if you feel like China 0:04:38.890 --> 0:04:43.080 now has that technology and can start selling them too? 0:04:43.100 --> 0:04:43.920 Sure, yeah. 0:04:44.220 --> 0:04:46.779 I'd want to know a lot more about how significant 0:04:46.820 --> 0:04:50.159 the leaks were, but my takeaway, as if I needed 0:04:50.180 --> 0:04:55.250 to take this away, is any Chinese citizen or any 0:04:55.770 --> 0:04:59.089 human who has family they care about who is a 0:04:59.150 --> 0:05:03.030 Chinese citizen, is a potential tool of the Chinese Communist Party. 0:05:03.670 --> 0:05:05.109 Always, every day, never forget. 0:05:05.230 --> 0:05:07.210 So this New York Times article is based on interviews 0:05:07.250 --> 0:05:09.350 with people briefed on the surveillance who spoke on the 0:05:09.390 --> 0:05:13.890 condition of anonymity, as usual. American officials had already suspected 0:05:13.930 --> 0:05:17.830 that Ms. Wang was helping China evade constraints on its 0:05:17.870 --> 0:05:21.880 ability to gain access to advanced AI chips, which ain't good. 0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:26.500 But the revelation that she was feeding information directly to 0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:29.840 Beijing raised more troubling possibilities, including that Mr. Wang had 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:32.780 insights into Mr. Trump's thinking on an issue of vital 0:05:32.820 --> 0:05:36.000 importance to both nations, one likely to come up when 0:05:36.020 --> 0:05:37.980 the president visits China next month. 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:39.940 Oh, my gosh. 0:05:39.980 --> 0:05:42.420 The number of contacts he's had with Trump and the 0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:43.800 whole leadership team. Yeah. 0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:46.400 Wow. Mr. 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.960 Wang has not received a defensive briefing warning sometimes given 0:05:49.980 --> 0:05:52.720 to Americans who are being targeted by foreign intelligence services. 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.310 People briefed with the surveillance. So the New York Times 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:59.089 is beyond hinting that the Trump administration could have done 0:05:59.250 --> 0:06:01.490 more to warn Wang, Mr. 0:06:01.550 --> 0:06:04.909 Wang, not Mrs. Wang, because they're both named Wang. Or 0:06:05.290 --> 0:06:07.370 go with first names. That'd be a good idea. 0:06:07.810 --> 0:06:08.030 Yeah. 0:06:08.130 --> 0:06:10.529 And I mentioned last week, I guess, for the super 0:06:10.550 --> 0:06:14.120 cool and hip people, you only call him by his 0:06:14.130 --> 0:06:17.300 first name anyway. He's one of those first-name people like Elon. 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:23.279 I find that so annoying, but go ahead. NVIDIA said 0:06:23.320 --> 0:06:30.850 that the company employed Ms. Wang was like any other 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:34.410 regional customer that had previously investigated and bugged claims that 0:06:34.430 --> 0:06:37.490 the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So NVIDIA is denying this, 0:06:37.570 --> 0:06:40.710 I guess, which you do, especially if you don't want 0:06:40.750 --> 0:06:42.250 the stock to drop all. 0:06:42.170 --> 0:06:42.950 Of a sudden, I suppose. 0:06:43.550 --> 0:06:47.900 Anyway, it'll be interesting to see more information that comes 0:06:47.980 --> 0:06:52.740 out on that whole story. It's very troubling and has 0:06:52.779 --> 0:06:55.969 been for a very long time that the United States 0:06:56.050 --> 0:07:01.700 is far and away the innovator in practically everything. Golf 0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:06.940 club technology, computers, cell phones, computer chips. We're the best 0:07:07.140 --> 0:07:07.679 at everything. 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:08.240 AI, everything. 0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:08.859 Fighter jets. 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:09.320 Yes. 0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:12.350 Fighter jets. All kinds of weapons systems. 0:07:12.610 --> 0:07:14.950 We're the best at that in the world by far 0:07:14.970 --> 0:07:17.930 because of our system where the smart people come here 0:07:18.310 --> 0:07:20.250 and less regulation. 0:07:19.600 --> 0:07:20.740 And blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 0:07:21.180 --> 0:07:23.800 But then we let our number one enemy on earth 0:07:23.940 --> 0:07:27.060 steal it right away. skip all the hard part and 0:07:27.100 --> 0:07:29.800 have exactly the same thing. They got a fighter jet 0:07:29.860 --> 0:07:32.160 that is same as our fighter jet. We should have been, 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.900 we should have had the dominant fighter plane on planet 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.480 earth for decades before anybody could catch up to us. Nope. 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:41.040 They stole all the technology and caught up to us 0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:41.420 right away. 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:46.880 Our naivete, our naivete in engaging with China from the 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:51.320 Nixon administration on and getting addicted to cheap Chinese crap 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.300 in our markets and our households and our lives is, 0:07:53.610 --> 0:07:56.870 It's one of the great geopolitical miscalculations in human history. 0:07:57.650 --> 0:08:00.570 And it was absolutely deliberately planned by the Chinese from 0:08:00.610 --> 0:08:03.810 the beginning. Read the 100-year marathon by Michael Pillsbury. 0:08:03.830 --> 0:08:08.989 Is that it? Yeah, it's... Whoops. Yeah, whoops. 0:08:09.570 --> 0:08:12.190 So NVIDIA's got the best, fastest chips that drive the 0:08:12.230 --> 0:08:15.450 whole AI thing, and now hopefully China doesn't have a 0:08:15.490 --> 0:08:17.550 lot of the information you need to make the same chips. 0:08:18.950 --> 0:08:22.300 And she tried to reach Nelson through his... I'm not 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:25.160 saying it's unfortunate and childish. 0:08:25.180 --> 0:08:30.580 Oh, you're right, it is. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, yeah. Wow, wow, wow. Hey, 0:08:30.620 --> 0:08:33.760 there's this hot young girl who's really wanting me. Chinese citizen. 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:38.810 Really took a shine into you.

He needs to put on there no communist spies. 0:09:46.420 --> 0:09:48.580 Yeah, dang it. It's an oversight. What are you going 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:49.920 to do? He's busy running the company. 0:09:50.450 --> 0:09:52.969 Oh, speaking of foreigners on the run, have you followed 0:09:53.010 --> 0:09:55.569 the Bolsonaro story out of Brazil? 0:09:56.610 --> 0:09:57.989 They just had, you know, we. 0:10:00.100 --> 0:10:04.420 are so headed for this with the lawfare culture that's. 0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:04.900 Going on right now. 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:09.380 The guy almost wins the presidency a couple of nights ago, 0:10:10.540 --> 0:10:17.790 but the winners, the left-wing strongman, what's his name, Lalo 0:10:17.850 --> 0:10:23.209 or Taco or whatever his name is, while he's a 0:10:23.210 --> 0:10:26.220 left-wing strongman, he's going to arrest Bolsonaro and charge him 0:10:26.240 --> 0:10:28.280 with all sorts of crimes, real and imagined. 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:29.660 So you lose the election. 0:10:30.059 --> 0:10:34.760 You have to flee over land to, what was it, Ecuador? 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:36.420 And then he jumped on a private jet and now 0:10:36.460 --> 0:10:39.559 he's in Miami because he's friendly with the Trump family. 0:10:41.340 --> 0:10:43.880 So you lose the election, you have to flee the country. 0:10:44.850 --> 0:10:48.120 And we're close to that. There are folks, we reported 0:10:48.140 --> 0:10:51.400 this a week or so ago, all over D.C., everybody 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:54.280 involved in the administration is getting lawyered up for when 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:56.570 and if the Democrats take the House and the Senate 0:10:57.150 --> 0:11:02.709 because it's going to become lawfare mania again. I accuse 0:11:02.770 --> 0:11:06.979 the Democrats of really starting the modern lawfare, trying to 0:11:07.020 --> 0:11:11.400 prosecute Trump for ridiculous imagined crap. And then the Trump 0:11:11.420 --> 0:11:15.470 administration is gleefully joined in the fray and is prosecuting 0:11:15.510 --> 0:11:19.969 everybody that's in their sights, including ridiculously, and Comey's a villain. 0:11:20.010 --> 0:11:25.990 But this latest one, indicting Comey, it's just, it's a joke. Um, 0:11:26.010 --> 0:11:29.219 so how, how far till we're in banana Republic zones 0:11:29.530 --> 0:11:31.660 and then, then, but you know, throwing people in jail, 0:11:32.900 --> 0:11:36.860 you don't hold a, uh, Hey, it was a great effort. Sorry. 0:11:36.900 --> 0:11:40.210 We lost a rally or speech or whatever you flee 0:11:40.230 --> 0:11:40.890 for your lives. 0:11:42.330 --> 0:11:42.650 Nice. 0:11:42.670 --> 0:11:43.990 Yeah, I know. 0:11:44.820 --> 0:11:47.200 We can dig into the economic numbers that came out today. 0:11:47.260 --> 0:11:49.420 I guarantee you Donald Trump and the Republicans are happy 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.839 about it because it's pretty strong overall GDP growth. 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:57.280 But did they exceed expectations? And plenty of other stuff 0:11:57.300 --> 0:12:04.140 that we can get into. Stay here. Armstrong and Getty. 0:12:04.230 --> 0:12:07.850 Apple's new foldable iPhone is cracking after just days or 0:12:07.910 --> 0:12:08.689 hours of use. 0:12:09.070 --> 0:12:12.070 The situation is so bad, several teenagers actually looked up 0:12:12.110 --> 0:12:19.699 from their phones. Speaking of things cracking, that's going to 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.120 be a huge problem if that turns out to be 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:25.240 like an actual problem and not just a very rare. 0:12:27.330 --> 0:12:28.689 They misused it or something. 0:12:29.410 --> 0:12:34.640 Do we have a term for the. Because this could 0:12:34.660 --> 0:12:36.820 be an actual problem and an issue that Apple has 0:12:36.860 --> 0:12:40.950 to grapple with, or it could be incredibly rare, utterly insignificant, 0:12:40.990 --> 0:12:44.770 but because it's tied to the hot thing, it gets 0:12:44.929 --> 0:12:45.790 lots of clicks. 0:12:46.470 --> 0:12:50.060 Is there a remora? Is that the fish. 0:12:49.860 --> 0:12:52.360 That latches onto a shark and swims? It's like a 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:56.079 parasite story. Yeah, there should be a term for that. 0:12:58.740 --> 0:13:05.530 My son's MacBook Air, which is fairly old, got a 0:13:05.570 --> 0:13:06.850 cracked screen somehow. 0:13:07.010 --> 0:13:11.489 He doesn't seem to understand, know how that happened. I 0:13:11.510 --> 0:13:13.469 try to remind them. I do this. I think a 0:13:13.510 --> 0:13:14.189 lot of us do this. 0:13:15.090 --> 0:13:17.890 You have these things that your phone is the best example. 0:13:18.190 --> 0:13:20.790 They're so expensive. You get so used to carrying them 0:13:20.820 --> 0:13:21.390 around all the time. 0:13:21.429 --> 0:13:24.230 You treat them like they're You know, like a $ 5 0:13:24.190 --> 0:13:27.010 Atom or whatever, and toss it on the bed or whatever. 0:13:27.050 --> 0:13:28.890 Like a comb. 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.040 Not like it's a $ 1, 000 computer that you're carrying around. Anyway, 0:13:33.059 --> 0:13:35.059 the screen got cracked on his MacBook, and so I 0:13:35.100 --> 0:13:38.760 took it to the local repair person to fix it. 0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:40.260 $ 450 to fix it. They got to put a new 0:13:40.300 --> 0:13:40.640 screen out. 0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:41.840 $ 450. 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.420 So it's right on that edge of, well, is it 0:13:44.460 --> 0:13:47.400 better to just get a new one? Because it's older, 0:13:48.120 --> 0:13:50.040 and it's right on the cusp. But I thought, geez, 0:13:50.090 --> 0:13:52.250 that's an expensive repair. What would it cost to fix 0:13:52.270 --> 0:13:52.910 those duos? 0:13:53.050 --> 0:13:55.170 I can't imagine. Well, with those. 0:13:56.929 --> 0:14:00.350 Expensive chips these days, we know computers are really, really high. 0:14:00.390 --> 0:14:04.740 And thanks to old Jensen Wang and his hot commie girlfriend, 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:06.080 it might get worse or better. 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:08.359 This guy, it's a. 0:14:08.740 --> 0:14:11.559 One guy rented out a space in a strip mall 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:14.220 that probably used to be a yogurt stand or whatever. 0:14:14.780 --> 0:14:14.920 And. 0:14:16.030 --> 0:14:18.840 Uh, he fixes people's iPhones and computers. And I said, 0:14:18.860 --> 0:14:20.680 do you stay pretty busy? And he said, I am 0:14:20.740 --> 0:14:21.680 swamped all the time. 0:14:21.980 --> 0:14:23.960 Oh, but he can charge pretty much whatever the hell 0:14:24.000 --> 0:14:26.380 he wants. And, uh, he's on the West side of 0:14:26.420 --> 0:14:29.010 my town. He just everybody in that end, probably he's 0:14:29.030 --> 0:14:32.780 the most convenient guy. And, uh, And what a skill 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.020 to have. And I said, did you learn all this 0:14:35.110 --> 0:14:36.950 pretty much just by screwing around with stuff? 0:14:37.030 --> 0:14:39.630 He said, yeah, just pretty much self-taught. Just I was 0:14:39.670 --> 0:14:41.250 interested in it. And then I'd start buying parts and 0:14:41.270 --> 0:14:42.870 switching them out. And you learn by doing and everything 0:14:42.910 --> 0:14:44.820 like that. And I said, man, AI is not going 0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:46.740 to replace you. And he said, nope, not a chance. 0:14:47.160 --> 0:14:48.900 I'll be able to do this the rest of my life. 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:52.280 Wow, good for him. I love that. That's an American success. 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:55.370 What a cool talent to have. I mean, that is 0:14:55.430 --> 0:14:57.030 something that will be in demand. 0:14:57.050 --> 0:14:59.650 Be like being somebody who could, like, you know, like 0:14:59.690 --> 0:15:02.369 a farrier back in the 1800s, shoe a horse or 0:15:02.410 --> 0:15:02.930 something like that. 0:15:02.990 --> 0:15:07.010 You are needed. Every town needs you. Right, right. 0:15:07.690 --> 0:15:11.340 And I could totally see, you know, he's charging $ 79 0:15:11.290 --> 0:15:15.280 for an iPhone repair or whatever. I could totally see 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:18.620 him thinking, I'm going to tell this guy $ 89. Let's 0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:22.280 try 99, you know, and just see what the market 0:15:22.300 --> 0:15:26.150 will bear. I show up, is it $ 79 or $ 89? 0:15:25.870 --> 0:15:28.630 I don't care. Tell me how much it is all for. Exactly. 0:15:28.650 --> 0:15:31.470 I mean, unless he went like nuts, that's $ 450 to 0:15:31.570 --> 0:15:31.989 replace it. 0:15:32.090 --> 0:15:35.440 You know, then you'd notice. But it's definitely. You're there. 0:15:35.460 --> 0:15:36.380 You need it fixed. 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:37.200 It's inelastic. 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.260 You probably really need it fixed unless you're somebody who 0:15:40.300 --> 0:15:43.380 has like multiple computers and you use this one sometimes 0:15:43.460 --> 0:15:46.750 as opposed to this is the thing I use every day. Yeah, 0:15:46.790 --> 0:15:48.220 what a great business to be in. 0:15:48.230 --> 0:15:49.650 I'm going to teach one of my kids to learn 0:15:49.670 --> 0:15:51.050 how to fix iPhones and computers. 0:15:52.130 --> 0:15:54.070 As I was walking over to the place yesterday, I 0:15:54.110 --> 0:15:56.650 walked by a car on the street that had a 0:15:56.650 --> 0:15:59.310 whole bunch of bumper stickers. People tend to either be 0:15:59.390 --> 0:16:02.430 bumper sticker person or not bumper sticker person. Not a 0:16:02.490 --> 0:16:05.270 lot of people with one or two bumper stickers. You 0:16:05.290 --> 0:16:08.150 either have zero or eight for some reason. I don't 0:16:08.170 --> 0:16:10.040 know what that is. And I grew up in a 0:16:10.060 --> 0:16:12.360 household where my dad kind of looked down on bumper 0:16:12.380 --> 0:16:14.840 sticker people, so I've never been a bumper sticker person. 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:17.800 If you grew up in a household where, absolutely, you 0:16:17.870 --> 0:16:20.430 fly your flag of what you believe on the bumper 0:16:20.450 --> 0:16:22.270 of your car, you probably do that as. 0:16:22.250 --> 0:16:24.570 An adult, too, I guess. I don't know. Boy, just 0:16:24.610 --> 0:16:27.310 my kids' colleges, that's the only things we've ever had. 0:16:27.710 --> 0:16:28.330 Window sticker. 0:16:31.550 --> 0:16:38.400 This bumper sticker said, billionaires are a threat. You are 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:38.840 a moron. 0:16:39.700 --> 0:16:40.200 That's funny. 0:16:40.220 --> 0:16:42.780 That's exactly what I said to my son as we 0:16:42.820 --> 0:16:43.700 walked by a car. 0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:48.830 Well, there's a moron. Isn't that nice? In America's sun, 0:16:48.870 --> 0:16:50.470 a moron can afford a car. 0:16:53.430 --> 0:16:57.550 That tiny bumper sticker announced so much about them. Oh, 0:16:57.570 --> 0:17:00.550 but I could guess correctly like a hundred different things 0:17:00.630 --> 0:17:01.330 about that person. 0:17:01.770 --> 0:17:03.650 Correct. Yes. Yes, you could. 0:17:03.730 --> 0:17:07.990 Based on that one bumper sticker. So, conservatism is dead. 0:17:09.410 --> 0:17:12.670 In other news, rain is expected. Yeah, man, you look 0:17:12.710 --> 0:17:13.760 at some recent polls. 0:17:15.450 --> 0:17:16.609 I ain't going to like this, am I? 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:20.399 The francification of America. Put on your beret, folks, and 0:17:20.420 --> 0:17:20.880 stay tuned. 0:17:21.200 --> 0:17:22.280 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:24.030 --> 0:17:27.209 Somewhere between 28 and 38, I would guess, based on 0:17:27.230 --> 0:17:31.550 the pictures. Jensen's Chinese spy girlfriend. 0:17:31.570 --> 0:17:34.649 He's 64. 0:17:34.650 --> 0:17:38.780 He's pretty young, very attractive. New York Times has a 0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:41.000 lot of pictures of them, like, walking out of bars 0:17:41.060 --> 0:17:42.140 at night and stuff like that. 0:17:42.740 --> 0:17:43.400 Nice. 0:17:43.820 --> 0:17:46.800 Yeah. So the guy running the most valuable company in 0:17:46.820 --> 0:17:49.180 the world with the most exclusive chips had a Chinese 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:52.600 spy girlfriend, it appears. And she'll send an info back 0:17:52.660 --> 0:17:54.139 to the Communist Party. 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:54.960 Fantastic. 0:17:56.530 --> 0:17:59.870 Michael, play me clip 55, would you please? This fellow 0:17:59.910 --> 0:18:02.810 is the president of the United States. Republicans win the 0:18:02.850 --> 0:18:05.629 House of Representatives and the Senate. 0:18:06.750 --> 0:18:09.090 And remember, House and Senate. 0:18:09.850 --> 0:18:13.320 I am going to give all adult citizens in the United. 0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:19.359 States $ 5, 000. 0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:21.359 $ 5, 000. 0:18:19.380 --> 0:18:20.639 I hate to be negative, but I think at this 0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.280 point you could say, and I will ship an elephant 0:18:22.590 --> 0:18:23.350 to everyone's home. 0:18:23.710 --> 0:18:25.450 You'll have it by Tuesday. Oh, I've always wanted an elephant. 0:18:25.550 --> 0:18:28.050 There's no way the Republicans are going to take the House. 0:18:29.070 --> 0:18:33.780 Well, nobody's going to get $ 5, 000. Putting aside the ridiculousness 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:37.940 of that proposition, he sounds slurry to me in that. 0:18:38.820 --> 0:18:42.790 What are you insinuating? Age finally catching up with him. 0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:45.060 Every once in a while he does, and I think 0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:45.940 it's a teeth thing. 0:18:46.340 --> 0:18:48.530 He's done that for years, where all of a sudden 0:18:48.570 --> 0:18:50.410 he gets the big, he's really slurred. 0:18:50.650 --> 0:18:53.390 I think his teeth slide looser. I don't know what happened. Yeah, 0:18:53.410 --> 0:18:55.870 it could be a dentures thing. I don't know. Anyway, 0:18:56.810 --> 0:19:01.090 we'll all keep an eye out for that. We will. Well, yes. 0:19:01.109 --> 0:19:06.359 I had to do something as a transition. Jason Riley, 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:09.220 great columnist for the Wall Street Journal. His column this 0:19:09.260 --> 0:19:12.560 week was, Hispanics ditch Trump for the same reason as 0:19:12.640 --> 0:19:15.409 everyone else. which is a bit of a harsh headline. 0:19:15.450 --> 0:19:18.970 But what he's talking about is while there are some 0:19:19.030 --> 0:19:22.750 signs that the manner in which the ICE crackdown has 0:19:22.810 --> 0:19:27.770 been conducted has cost votes in the Hispanic community, it's 0:19:27.830 --> 0:19:32.260 not the factor. And this is so interesting. It goes 0:19:32.320 --> 0:19:36.580 against so much of the popular narrative from the lamestream media. 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:40.560 But a Pew Research Center survey this month asked Hispanic 0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:41.939 voters to name their top issues. 0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:43.620 Immigration ranked fifth. 0:19:44.330 --> 0:19:50.100 After the economy, health care, education, and the future of democracy, 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:55.000 whatever that means. Moreover, issues around race and ethnicity ranked 0:19:55.180 --> 0:19:59.560 second from the bottom in their list of concerns, which 0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:01.820 stands to reason, Jason points out, because that's not what 0:20:02.140 --> 0:20:07.000 attracted them to Trump in the first place. It's kitchen table, 0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:11.940 how's the economy, how's my job? issues, and they went 0:20:12.140 --> 0:20:15.020 way to Trump because they perceived him as a good 0:20:15.060 --> 0:20:18.320 manager of the economy, and now that, you know, they're 0:20:18.340 --> 0:20:21.659 frustrated by inflation and taxes and blah, blah, energy prices, 0:20:22.140 --> 0:20:26.300 they're going away. That's virtually all you need to know. 0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:28.960 I think it's just so hard for people who are, 0:20:29.700 --> 0:20:30.899 like the media particularly. 0:20:31.180 --> 0:20:34.100
