Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong, and jat Katie and now he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 3: This brazen abuse of power by a sitting president inflamed
Speaker 3: a combustible situation, putting our people, our officers, and even
Speaker 3: our National Guard at risk.
Speaker 2: Now let me into the Oval Office, all right, So
Speaker 2: things would have calmed down on their own. I highly
Speaker 2: doubt it. But Gavin Newsom gave a late night speech
Speaker 2: last night and it was his most his biggest effort
Speaker 2: yet at trying to look like a presidential candidate or
Speaker 2: already president of the United States. The lighting, the hair,
Speaker 2: the standing in front of the flag. They know what
Speaker 2: they're doing. And his hair grayer than I've ever seen it.
Speaker 2: That wasn't an accident. He's trying to look more dignified anyway.
Speaker 2: And then he went on to say.
Speaker 3: This, this isn't just about protests here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 3: When Donald Trump sought blanket authority to commandeer the National Guard,
Speaker 3: he made that order apply to every state in this nation.
Speaker 3: This is about all of us.
Speaker 2: This is about you.
Speaker 3: California maybe first, but it clearly will not end here.
Speaker 3: Other states are next. Democracy is next. Democracy is under
Speaker 3: assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived.
Speaker 2: Heay's Trump Hitdler. That's the that's the underscore, that's the
Speaker 2: between the lines.
Speaker 4: Meanwhile, most of America here's those words and thinks, so
Speaker 4: Trump will send in the National Guard in any state
Speaker 4: where riots are out of control and the cops are gowhelmed.
Speaker 2: Okay, Good says at least two thirds of America, if
Speaker 2: not more, that's as totalitarian. Not according to not, According
Speaker 2: to Rich Lowry of the National Review, this is not
Speaker 2: what authoritarianism looks like. This is pretty good. President Trump's
Speaker 2: activation of the California National Guard has launched a thousand
Speaker 2: op eds warning of his authoritarianism. This is what autocracy
Speaker 2: looks like, wrote Michelle Goldberg in The New York Times.
Speaker 2: Edward Lusip the Financial Times sending the National Guard into
Speaker 2: la is the administration's clearest step yet toward authoritarianism. The
Speaker 2: same word again. CNN two had a piece saying Trump
Speaker 2: is acting like an authoritarian. Goldberg of the New York
Speaker 2: Times believes we are seeing her worst fear realized, just
Speaker 2: like Gavin Newsom said, the moment we had feared is here.
Speaker 3: This moment we have feared has arrived.
Speaker 2: New York's Times believes our worst fears have been realized
Speaker 2: that Trump would call out the military against people protesting
Speaker 2: his mass deportations, putting America on the road to martial law.
Speaker 2: The phrase road to martial law is doing a lot
Speaker 2: of work here. What's happened so far is that Trump
Speaker 2: has acted within the law, even analysts not favorable to him,
Speaker 2: And as a approach, I've acknowledged that he has the
Speaker 2: right and ability to use the National Guard and now
Speaker 2: at contingent of Marines to protect federal personnel and property
Speaker 2: in LA. Most people don't feel threatened or provoked by
Speaker 2: guys and camo standing impassively in front of a federal building.
Speaker 2: I like this part from Rich Lowry. The old saw
Speaker 2: about the Nazis is first they came for the Jews.
Speaker 2: It's not first they protected government property from violent demonstrators.
Speaker 2: That's a good one. Wow, that is a good line.
Speaker 2: Wretch Goldberg minimizes the mayhem as she quotes a Saturday
Speaker 2: statement by the LAPD that all is well, leaving out
Speaker 2: the subsequent comments by the police chief on Sunday night
Speaker 2: about the situation being out of control and his officers
Speaker 2: getting overwhelmed. Many news outlets have done that. Yeah, they
Speaker 2: selected the things were fine earlier and left out the
Speaker 2: police chief saying himself, we are overwhelmed. The chief may I.
Speaker 4: Could just quickly pause and refer to Michelle Goldberg's using
Speaker 4: the term mass deportation as if that is somehow so
Speaker 4: repugnant and awful. Everybody agrees, and she doesn't need to
Speaker 4: make an argument. She'll just use those words. Hey, Michelle,
Speaker 4: I got a question for you. There was a mass
Speaker 4: importation of illegal immigrants willy nilly across an open border.
Speaker 4: How would you rectify a mass importation?
Speaker 2: Hmm, Michelle, I have an idea. He goes through a
Speaker 2: long thing about how ICE officers were being attacked, not
Speaker 2: being able to do their job, Federal buildings were under assault,
Speaker 2: being defaced, et cetera, et cetera. Those who see budding
Speaker 2: autocracy in Trump's handling of LA probably read Holman's statement
Speaker 2: about protecting federal buildings in the ICE are going to
Speaker 2: do their jobs. There he goes again, saying you can't
Speaker 2: assault ICE agents or destroy property. Has he no decency
Speaker 2: and pretty much any other circumstance, defying federal law and
Speaker 2: federal law enforcement would be portrayed as reprehensible proto secessionism.
Speaker 2: But since we're talking about Trump and immigration law, it's
Speaker 2: federal agents and those charged with protecting them who are
Speaker 2: precursors of precursors of a dystopian future. That's right. And
Speaker 2: this happens on both sides. And I was talking about
Speaker 2: this yesterday. Try to have some principles and stick with
Speaker 2: them regardless of who's involved. You hate the idea of states,
Speaker 2: you know, deciding gay people can't get married, or trains
Speaker 2: this or whatever. You know, federal rules rule and all
Speaker 2: that sort of stuff, except for when it's Trump and
Speaker 2: immigration and come on, be one or the other.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so many people think emotionally it's you can't reason
Speaker 4: with them because they'll say, I don't care, I know
Speaker 4: what I feel, and that's the way they live their lives.
Speaker 2: I I absolutely believe, and I will be shocked if
Speaker 2: it turns out doesn't turn out to be true when
Speaker 2: we get some polling on this. I did seem some
Speaker 2: polling yesterday that was too early for a lot of
Speaker 2: the stuff that has happened. See if I can find
Speaker 2: that real quick, but it was roughly fifty to fifty
Speaker 2: on Trump I want to boot out I legals. I'll
Speaker 2: see if I can find that, but I'll be shocked
Speaker 2: if when the polling comes out later on the well, basically,
Speaker 2: what do you think of doing whatever we got to
Speaker 2: do to stop riots? And a fast majority of people saying, yeah,
Speaker 2: you got you gotta stop riots. You can't have riots. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was just gonna say, it's when things calm down
Speaker 4: and it's mass deportations if you will of non criminals,
Speaker 4: that the politics can get really interesting and I will
Speaker 4: enjoy observing it and we will bring it to you
Speaker 4: in an unbiased fashion. You know what the polls say
Speaker 4: and that sort of thing. Here, here's the poll. Here's
Speaker 4: the poll real quick. Jessica, Hey, yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 2: How Americans feel about immigration authorities searching their communities for
Speaker 2: people they believe are in the country are legally nothing
Speaker 2: to do with crime. Here, it's just how Americans feel
Speaker 2: about immigration authorities searching their communities, so, you know, sweeping
Speaker 2: through your town, workplace, or whatever for people at home
Speaker 2: depot believe are in the country illegally. In favor fifty
Speaker 2: one opposed forty nine. That's CBSU gov fifty one. Forty
Speaker 2: nine in favors is fifty fifty. It's win the margin
Speaker 2: of error. But yeah, man, in terms of quelling riots,
Speaker 2: so ICE can do its job, and they shocked if
Speaker 2: it's not at least two thirds to three quarters support.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no brainer, absolutely not, which is why it's so
Speaker 4: curious that Gavy Newsom would think that this is the
Speaker 4: time to launch his his, his true final assent into
Speaker 4: the upper upper echelon of would be Democratic presidential candidates.
Speaker 4: Because it looks so bad. Let's can we hear one
Speaker 4: more of Gavy Newsom?
Speaker 2: What have we not played? Just whatever?
Speaker 5: The next clip is Donald Trump, without consulting California law
Speaker 5: enforcement leaders, commandeered two thousand of our state's National Guard members.
Speaker 3: To deploy on our streets illegally and for no reason.
Speaker 3: This brazen abuse of power by a sitting president inflamed
Speaker 3: a combustible situation, putting our people, our officers, and even
Speaker 3: our National Guard at risk. That's when the downward spiral began.
Speaker 2: That's when this doubled down.
Speaker 3: On his dangerous National Guard deployment by fanning the flames
Speaker 3: even harder and the president.
Speaker 2: Everybody's did it on purpose.
Speaker 4: Yes, he of course he did it on purpose. Oh
Speaker 4: the inflaming part. Okay, Gabby, So, I wish I could
Speaker 4: do better than Peter hack with not to Be, but
Speaker 4: I can't. So I just to tell you what he said.
Speaker 4: The media is trying so hard. The left wing shills
Speaker 4: at Politico have seized on the chaos in California, hoping
Speaker 4: it can be manipulated to catapult the state's democratic governor
Speaker 4: into the national conversation. But if this is his audition
Speaker 4: for twenty eight it's not going very well. Newsom is
Speaker 4: up to his arm pits in another mess of his
Speaker 4: own making. The progressive poser during his ten years mayor
Speaker 4: turned one of America's most beautiful cities into a poop stained,
Speaker 4: needle riddled cesspool of debauchery. Took those talents from San
Speaker 4: Francisco to Sacramento, and the results have been nearly identical.
Speaker 2: Cesspool of debauchery. Yes, so I'm going to go see
Speaker 2: them Friday night.
Speaker 4: And he goes into the billions of dollars spent to
Speaker 4: combat quote unquote homelessness, only to see the homeless rate increase.
Speaker 2: It's transient drug addicts that are the problem.
Speaker 4: The billions and billions and billions of dollars spent on
Speaker 4: the high speed rail that hasn't been built and won't be,
Speaker 4: thousands of convicted felons granted early release. Business is fleeing
Speaker 4: the state twice as fast as years prior. Highest gas
Speaker 4: prices in the country about to go even higher. Good lord,
Speaker 4: good luck, Gavy oh man.
Speaker 2: Um, Yeah, so are we past the whole thing in
Speaker 2: LA now? There was violence in a number of other cities,
Speaker 2: including Austin last night. I think there were eighty arrests
Speaker 2: in Austin last night, quite a few on a few
Speaker 2: other towns. Do you think this is a growing thing
Speaker 2: across the country like George Floyd esque? Or is it
Speaker 2: were past the worst of it. It's not going to
Speaker 2: be as big as George Floyd. It's an unfair standard, right, certainly, But.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's spreading those young radicals who've been schooled in
Speaker 4: the hatred of Western civilization in the United States for
Speaker 4: their entire careers and government schools are they're thinking this
Speaker 4: is a good enough excuse to take this straight. So, yeah,
Speaker 4: we're going to see a fair amount of it for
Speaker 4: weeks and weeks.
Speaker 2: Nah, No, I want to get away from politics for
Speaker 2: a moment. Coming up, Apple and veiled their new software
Speaker 2: with some cool new features that I'm excited about myself.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about at some point. Also back
Speaker 2: to politics, our d and I Elsie Gabbard put out
Speaker 2: an interesting video yesterday about the atomic bomb in Japan
Speaker 2: and whatnot. Yeah, Telsea is a crank? What is a
Speaker 2: What is a crank?
Speaker 4: She is a nut job. She has bizarre beliefs. She
Speaker 4: is unfit for the job. Sorry, tells fans she's lost
Speaker 4: her damn mind.
Speaker 2: Well, okay, we'll get to that. What what people think
Speaker 2: of the military parade? Ran Paul came out against it
Speaker 2: pretty strong yesterday, the big military parade Trump's going to have.
Speaker 2: I'm I'm kind of agnostic on this one, but uh,
Speaker 2: I can see the argument on both sides. But there's
Speaker 2: there's much to discuss. I hope you can stick around.
Speaker 6: He getty. Now, there is this new liquid glass design
Speaker 6: announced that Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference, which adds kind
Speaker 6: of a glass like appearance to your phones in app interfaces,
Speaker 6: you can see you can kind of see through them there.
Speaker 6: Apple also adding an AI power translation tool. This is cool,
Speaker 6: guys for Call and Tech. So you could have a
Speaker 6: phone call with someone who speaks a different language, and
Speaker 6: it'll be spoken to you, allowed by an AI voice
Speaker 6: in your language, and will also appear as captions on
Speaker 6: your phone in your language.
Speaker 2: That's cool, It is very cool. How about that they
Speaker 2: showed the demonstration. You could face time with somebody from
Speaker 2: wherever they speaking. You know, they're speaking crisik Stan or
Speaker 2: whatever they speak over there, and it will come. You'll
Speaker 2: be looking at their face in the FaceTime and you'll
Speaker 2: get an AI voice coming back to you in English.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's and it's awesome. What was it three four
Speaker 4: days ago? We played you the audio of Google's new
Speaker 4: system to do that. So now it's on your iPhone automatically. Man,
Speaker 4: there's much time.
Speaker 2: You're looking at their face and getting it in English
Speaker 2: to you. I mean that's incredible. Yeah, the liquid glass display.
Speaker 2: I don't know what that means and I don't care.
Speaker 2: That sounds like a minor whatever. But another thing, as
Speaker 2: I transition to a different story, another thing that they
Speaker 2: touted was you could have your passport in your phone,
Speaker 2: kind of like you'd have your credit card in your phone.
Speaker 2: Now you can have your passport in your phone. Although
Speaker 2: they haven't worked it out with governments toward they'll accept that.
Speaker 2: But list in the Nited States. That's at least in
Speaker 2: the United States you'd be able to do it. And
Speaker 2: that leads me to flying, which our friend Craig. I
Speaker 2: don't know if he wanted his name attached to us,
Speaker 2: but Craig, the healthcare genius, who is very handy contact
Speaker 2: by the way, in my own personal life for lots
Speaker 2: of questions. Everyone should have someone like Craig to ask
Speaker 2: a medical, insurance everything questions too, because he knows everything
Speaker 2: and it's so complicated. Anyway, he texted this to Joe
Speaker 2: and I yesterday. This is one of my hobby horses.
Speaker 2: I love how in some airports your sweater absolutely must
Speaker 2: come off or you will be presumed to be a
Speaker 2: member of al Qaeda and another airport you're an idiot
Speaker 2: for even thinking that could be the case.
Speaker 4: Right, give me your jackets.
Speaker 2: On another one. Computers too, now in Sacramento, no electronics
Speaker 2: come out of the bag. Stop wasting time in Chicago,
Speaker 2: pull out your electronics, Osama, Yeah, so true. Do these
Speaker 2: people never travel? Do you? TSA people never travel and realize, Oh,
Speaker 2: I guess the rules are different in every airport, so
Speaker 2: yelling at people like they're idiots doesn't work because they
Speaker 2: don't have any idea airport to airport, not even airport
Speaker 2: to airport. At my local airport, it's line the line
Speaker 2: because they have different machines on the one on the
Speaker 2: left than they do here than they have over there. Right,
Speaker 2: these machines, they don't need your electronics to come out
Speaker 2: those do? Do? See? Can't I'm not an expert and
Speaker 2: looking at the machine, Oh that's the uh, that's the
Speaker 2: Osama three thousand terrorist catcher. Though, okay, so I don't
Speaker 2: have to take my computer out for that one. Obviously,
Speaker 2: I know that.
Speaker 4: So many I think I mentioned it to similar experience.
Speaker 4: I was dealing with an airline agent who said, show
Speaker 4: me your IFD. Like, what's an IFT? She said, it's
Speaker 4: on your ticket? Where on your ticket? Where on my ticket?
Speaker 2: In the bottom, all right, the bottom where there's fifteen?
Speaker 4: What's an IFD? And I needed this to happen fairly quickly.
Speaker 2: And undo my pants. Okay, I need it to happen.
Speaker 2: I assumed it was a acronym for something. I thought
Speaker 2: it was a reference to my manhood. Look look uh.
Speaker 4: And if I had not needed it to happen quickly
Speaker 4: and successfully, no matter what else happened, it had to
Speaker 4: happen that the switch of the flight, I would have said, Now,
Speaker 4: how in the world would I know what an IFD is.
Speaker 4: I've never heard that's my name. Here's what I do
Speaker 4: for a living. Here are my hobbies. Where would I
Speaker 4: have come into contact with that series of letters?
Speaker 2: You dumb? Oh man, you sound like me, which is fun.
Speaker 2: And then one more for Craig when he got to Chicago, Oh,
Speaker 2: boarding pass, is your face here in Chicago? Love? Facial
Speaker 2: scanning is here. I haven't had that experience. We're all
Speaker 2: getting our picture kicking everywhere, but I haven't had the
Speaker 2: this is my ticket face yet. Oh yeah, Wow, I've
Speaker 2: done that. Wow. How soon will that be?
Speaker 4: Pose in front of the little camera thing and it says,
Speaker 4: okay you are Joe, come on in.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I've done that at every ticket, but I also
Speaker 2: had to have my ticket. I haven't had that work
Speaker 2: as the ticket yet. Huh. That is something and when
Speaker 2: that can be or your ticket is your face? Is
Speaker 2: that going to be going into every ball game, every concert,
Speaker 2: every everything.
Speaker 4: You know, my face has always been my ticket, Jack,
Speaker 4: my tickets to fame.
Speaker 2: My ticket's a good question. My face is my ticket
Speaker 2: to people cross the street to the other side. That's
Speaker 2: what my ticket is. Boy, he looks angry and there
Speaker 2: that's across the street. Honey. Yeah, Well, who's trying to
Speaker 2: get the eye scans going?
Speaker 4: And all the little booths around? Uh, Silicon Valley? Is
Speaker 4: that Sam Alton or one of those tech gurus. Yeah,
Speaker 4: everybody's competing I finger prints and whatever.
Speaker 2: Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, put out a video
Speaker 2: like looked like it was made by Hollywood. It was
Speaker 2: so good yesterday about US dropping the bomb on Japan.
Speaker 2: How evil it was an excuse them? What the heck
Speaker 2: was that all about? Stay tuned, Armstrong and getty.
Speaker 4: California Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Pass denounced the
Speaker 4: federal immigration raids.
Speaker 2: So now they.
Speaker 4: Don't want California to have ice.
Speaker 2: Or water shot at water the water conservation problem in California. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I get it. I get it.
Speaker 4: Coming up, I will flesh out why I think Tulsi
Speaker 4: Gabbard is a crank. I've thought that for a long time.
Speaker 4: I wobbled briefly. I am back to thinking she is
Speaker 4: a complete crank. I don't really unqualified to be in
Speaker 4: the d N. I I might be on an out
Speaker 4: wire here. I don't really know the crank that well
Speaker 4: and what it means really, yeah, like a crank call
Speaker 4: or a you know, well, she's a nut she's a
Speaker 4: nut job, she's incapable, she's strong right in the head
Speaker 4: strong words from Joe Getty. I can go on if
Speaker 4: you'd like a couple of things of worth noting, you know,
Speaker 4: I was really hoping Katie would be here for this discussion.
Speaker 4: The is it the aura ring?
Speaker 2: Is that how you pronounced it? Arrible?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Or a paranoia? I know a number of people who
Speaker 2: do the aura ring, and I almost bought one a
Speaker 2: while back. The only reason I didn't it's supposed to
Speaker 2: be like one of the best things out there, because
Speaker 2: it's tight around your your your finger, for keeping track
Speaker 2: of sleep, part rate, all these different sorts of things.
Speaker 2: And the only reason is I just thought, I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna be a guy who wears a ring all the time.
Speaker 2: I just I'm not unlikely.
Speaker 4: Right right, Well, yeah, and it looks a little bulky
Speaker 4: to me. Too, But this article is all the about
Speaker 4: how people are getting or a paranoia they're getting. You know,
Speaker 4: they're sleep graded and their heart rates and their respiration,
Speaker 4: their activity, and they see results that are like in
Speaker 4: the yellow zoner. However, they grade it and they get
Speaker 4: all concerned and obsessed with it and go to see
Speaker 4: their doctors about it.
Speaker 2: And yeah, actually I was having a heart rate thing
Speaker 2: or I just noticed my heart rate from my Apple Watch.
Speaker 2: Let me start my sentence over. My Apple Watch alerted
Speaker 2: me to my heart rate a while back. And I've
Speaker 2: never paid attention to my heart rate. I've never had
Speaker 2: any problems with the heart. My heart rate was probably
Speaker 2: doing that. My heart was probably doing this my whole life,
Speaker 2: and I never knew it. But my Apple Watch alerted
Speaker 2: to your heart your arresting heart rate has been higher
Speaker 2: the last two days, and I thought, man, that's kind
Speaker 2: of interesting. Then I had a kind of high one
Speaker 2: and it alerted to me, and I asked my doctor about it,
Speaker 2: and he said, yeah, you got to watch out for this.
Speaker 2: People with the Apple watches, with the fitbits. He didn't
Speaker 2: mention the r ring, but what you're saying, I'm sure
Speaker 2: is true. He said. People are like discovering things that
Speaker 2: have always been true for them and like freaking out
Speaker 2: about them. So it's something you got to watch out for.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I was kind of enthused about wearing
Speaker 4: my Apple Watch to track my sleep or getting something
Speaker 4: like that some similar product. But I read that they
Speaker 4: did a big study and people tended to start having
Speaker 4: worse sleep because they were worried about it.
Speaker 2: Wow. They knew they'd be scored.
Speaker 4: And so they would wake up in the middle of
Speaker 4: the night and think, oh God, I get to get
Speaker 4: back to sleep, or I'm not going to have a
Speaker 4: good score.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's interesting. I don't have any need to have
Speaker 2: a certain scar. I don't know. That's kind of funny. Yeah, damned.
Speaker 4: Here's a woman who went to She asked her doctor
Speaker 4: practically the very thing you were discussing, and he told her,
Speaker 4: now you're fine, and quote they were like anti ara ring.
Speaker 4: They were just like, this is not just necessary information
Speaker 4: for a healthy, able bodied person to have.
Speaker 2: Don't worry about it. Quick paying attention. Basically, the one
Speaker 2: doctor said to me, I get ready to Apple Watch,
Speaker 2: like just dismissively said that, like, you know, out of hand,
Speaker 2: And I guess the and I did a little reading
Speaker 2: about it afterwards. Your heart rate gets a lot higher
Speaker 2: than you think because you're not you know, one of you.
Speaker 2: Has mankind ever known this. Your heart rate gets a
Speaker 2: lot higher than you think, maybe going up the stairs
Speaker 2: to your office, maybe walking out to your car on
Speaker 2: a hot day carrying something heavy, just you know, whatever,
Speaker 2: it is, right, your heart rate gets a lot higher
Speaker 2: than you'd think it does. And it's fine. It's supposed
Speaker 2: to right, right. So here's this.
Speaker 4: The woman who wrote a book called The Quantified Self,
Speaker 4: a sociology of self tracking, and she posits an aim.
Speaker 4: My initial response to this was cynicism, but I don't
Speaker 4: know now. She thinks that people just want some control
Speaker 4: over some aspects of their everyday lives and their health
Speaker 4: and their well being in these fevered, crazy times.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's completely crack pa. No, I want
Speaker 2: control over my well being and during these crazy times
Speaker 2: crackpot and I synonym for crank. By the way, I
Speaker 2: was motivated for the or erring mostly for the sleep
Speaker 2: thing because I've never had a heart problem. I just
Speaker 2: thought it would be interesting to know how many hours
Speaker 2: of sleep I'm actually getting. If I think I'm getting
Speaker 2: seven but I'm actually getting five and a half. It
Speaker 2: seems I could be good to know, so I could
Speaker 2: try to work in more sleep.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I have read with interest emails from folks who,
Speaker 4: like me, are cocktail enthusiasts and say, man, it's just undeniable.
Speaker 4: If you have a couple of drinks in the evening,
Speaker 4: you will not sleep as soundly.
Speaker 2: And as well during the night. Interesting, and I've read
Speaker 2: that a number of times. It seems like I slept fine.
Speaker 2: You know, I woke up in exactly the same position
Speaker 2: as I went to sleep in, in my clothes, on
Speaker 2: the floor next to the bed. That's not wait, my lifestyle.
Speaker 2: Jason Isabelle says in one song. Have you ever heard
Speaker 2: his song I Don't Want to Die in a Super
Speaker 2: eight home Hotel? Oh, it's a funny, funny, funny song
Speaker 2: about kind of a hard night of partying. But one
Speaker 2: of his lines is I woke up with the bed
Speaker 2: still made. I've done that a few times. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: didn't quite make it to the bed.
Speaker 4: Sometimes I just drift off while I'm watching a golf
Speaker 4: tournight late at night, after several classes of wine.
Speaker 2: It happens.
Speaker 4: So one more quick note from the world to technology
Speaker 4: before we take a break and we'll come back in.
Speaker 4: I'll make my Telsey Gabbard case. But we all feared
Speaker 4: this was true. We all heard this was true. We
Speaker 4: hoped it wasn't. There are quite a number of times
Speaker 4: when hitting unsubscribe just confirms it's a hot, live email address,
Speaker 4: and the evildoers say, we got a live one.
Speaker 7: Damn it.
Speaker 2: I was afraid of that. I always wondered that. How
Speaker 2: I thought, how is this not the same as answering
Speaker 2: the phone when it's a telemarketer and all I've done
Speaker 2: is tell them I exist, crap, what are you supposed
Speaker 2: to do? Now?
Speaker 4: It's not a ton, it's not a ton. Some most
Speaker 4: are legit. You're big, like Constant Contact or survey Monkey
Speaker 4: or I can't remember the names of the big, well
Speaker 4: known firms that do push emails.
Speaker 2: In a sales email, I'm assuming you're legit. I'm assuming
Speaker 2: like Banana Republic. I buy a shirt there, I put
Speaker 2: in my email to buy it, and then they start
Speaker 2: sending me ads and I hit the unsubscribe up there
Speaker 2: in the corner. I assume that's legit. I always worry
Speaker 2: about the ones that they don't have the little unsubscribe
Speaker 2: up in the corner. You have to go to their
Speaker 2: website and do some stuff. Those are the ones that
Speaker 2: worry me, bingo.
Speaker 4: And it's the ones the ones that bother me are
Speaker 4: why am I getting this email anywhere?
Speaker 2: I never bought that? Never.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there was a while I was getting like seventeen
Speaker 4: different practice. It's the identical financial advice you know pushes.
Speaker 2: Which is why I say no to you know at
Speaker 2: a place yesterday. Are you part of our rewards program?
Speaker 2: Rewards program here for buying a burger every six months,
Speaker 2: I come in here and get a burger fries. No,
Speaker 2: I'm not, and I don't want to give you my
Speaker 2: address and my telephone number and then get a and
Speaker 2: then you sell it to someone new.
Speaker 4: The tech company who did this study found that one
Speaker 4: in every six hundred and forty four, which is not many,
Speaker 4: but that's say click here to un subscribe lead you
Speaker 4: directly to a potentially malicious website. Spam screening probably the
Speaker 4: best thing you can do. Some program, and they're imperfect.
Speaker 4: Everybody's tried one, including me, knows that you end up
Speaker 4: with you know, something you really need to see buried
Speaker 4: in you know, sales solicitation folder or whatever, but I
Speaker 4: get the.
Speaker 2: Fifth to geez, how long has email been super popular?
Speaker 2: Late nineties, Back in the early days, I can understand
Speaker 2: why companies thought this, But now they're twenty twenty five,
Speaker 2: I'm surprised that they don't have some sort of formula
Speaker 2: or just intuitive knowledge that blanketing me with emails every
Speaker 2: day is gonna make me unsubscribe to you. I don't
Speaker 2: mind being subscribed to you, like Banana Republic's a good example,
Speaker 2: because every once in a while, I'm gonna buy a dress,
Speaker 2: shirt or socks or whatever. But if you hit me
Speaker 2: three times a day with what's on sale, I'm going
Speaker 2: to block you or unfollow You've you've completely gone the
Speaker 2: other direction from your intention. How do they not know that?
Speaker 2: And every company does that? I remember WET I bought
Speaker 2: a Kawasaki motorcycle. I actually called them up and said, look,
Speaker 2: I will never buy a Kawasaki again if you don't
Speaker 2: stop emailing me and calling me. I love your product,
Speaker 2: but I'll never buy one again if you don't leave
Speaker 2: me alone. Right, do I need to buy one every
Speaker 2: five times a day? That's so nut? Yeah, a lot
Speaker 2: of them.
Speaker 4: If you unsubscribed they'll say, how often would you like
Speaker 4: to see a message from US?
Speaker 2: And to choose? But yeah, very seldom.
Speaker 4: So inflammatory, explosive. Joe Getty claims Tulsi Gabbert is unfit
Speaker 4: for the office she holds, and I think she's some
Speaker 4: sort of weird America hater the evidence.
Speaker 7: Next, you could start with the question of is the
Speaker 7: DNI supposed to spend her time producing and hosting many
Speaker 7: documentaries for social media.
Speaker 2: I didn't know that was a thing. For some reason.
Speaker 4: Tulsi Gabbert, the Director of National Intelligence, just put out
Speaker 4: a three and a half or so minute video in
Speaker 4: which she describes visiting Hiroshima and Nagasaki and how horrific
Speaker 4: it was that the US used those weapons. You'll hear
Speaker 4: some of it, and then moves toward her point, which
Speaker 4: is troubling to me.
Speaker 2: Indeed, we'll give you a sample of it. Michael, let's
Speaker 2: hear sixteen.
Speaker 1: I recently visited Hiroshima in Japan and stood at the
Speaker 1: epicenter of a city that remains scarred by the unimaginable
Speaker 1: horror caused by a single nuclear bomb dropped in nineteen
Speaker 1: forty five, eighty years ago. It's hard for me to
Speaker 1: find the words to express what I saw, the stories
Speaker 1: that I heard, the haunting sadness that still remains. This
Speaker 1: is an experience that will stay with me forever. This
Speaker 1: attack obliterated the city, killed over three hundred thousand people,
Speaker 1: many dying instantly, while others died from severe burns, injuries, radiation,
Speaker 1: sickness and cancer that set in. In the following months
Speaker 1: and years, Nagasaki suffered the same faith, homes, schools, families
Speaker 1: all gone in a flash. The survivors, the Hibokusha, they
Speaker 1: carried the pain of extreme burns, radiation, sickness and loss
Speaker 1: for decades.
Speaker 4: So she goes on in that vein for a couple
Speaker 4: of minutes and describing.
Speaker 2: How today's warheads are even more and it is never
Speaker 2: it is like a mini documentary. I mean it's really
Speaker 2: really well done. The music, she looks great, it looks
Speaker 2: like a motion picture, and then all the video behind
Speaker 2: her of the explosion and then you know, sick and
Speaker 2: dying and injured and mutilated people. I mean, it's like
Speaker 2: a documentary.
Speaker 4: In art displays of the survivors, that sort of thing.
Speaker 4: So she never mentions the brutality of Imperial Japan. Pearl
Speaker 4: Harbor Baton Death March, tens of thousands of US troops
Speaker 4: who died to try to win the war in the Pacific.
Speaker 4: She doesn't mention Operation Downfall, which was the invasion of
Speaker 4: the Japanese mainland, in which our military authorities believed between
Speaker 4: one hundred and five hundred thousand more young American men
Speaker 4: were expected to die. It just goes on and on
Speaker 4: about the horrors of using the nuclear weapons against Japanche
Speaker 4: out Obama, Obama who did this while ago.
Speaker 2: Or the Japanese Imperial Army's statement they would never surrender,
Speaker 2: or any of those things.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I just happened to hear a great podcast
Speaker 4: with a historian who is talking about the war in
Speaker 4: the Pacific and how the closer we got to Japan,
Speaker 4: the more intensely the Japanese fought to the death. There
Speaker 4: would be I can't remember the numbers, as like, seventeen
Speaker 4: thousand Japanese soldiers on Iwo Jima, and only two hundred
Speaker 4: of them surrendered at the end. Everybody else fought to
Speaker 4: the death. Pardon me if my numbers are not exact,
Speaker 4: they don't have them in front of me. And so
Speaker 4: the end of the war would have been horrifically bloody
Speaker 4: for both sides. I mean casualties on the Japanese side
Speaker 4: far beyond and the toll from the bombs.
Speaker 2: You attacked us. It is not our obligation to try
Speaker 2: to end this war in a way that saves as
Speaker 2: many as you as possible while wasting our lives.
Speaker 4: Right, exactly exactly, So what is she doing? Why did
Speaker 4: she make the video? Let's skip to eighteen Michael, and
Speaker 4: it's about to become more clear.
Speaker 1: This isn't some made up science fiction story. This is
Speaker 1: the reality of what's at state, what we are facing now,
Speaker 1: because as we stand here today closer to the brink
Speaker 1: of nuclear annihilation than ever before, political elite and warmongers
Speaker 1: are carelessly fomenting fear and tensions between nuclear powers. Perhaps
Speaker 1: it's because they are confident that they will have access
Speaker 1: to nuclear shelters for themselves and for their families that
Speaker 1: regular people won't have access to.
Speaker 2: So it's up to us, the people.
Speaker 1: To speak up and demand an end to this madness.
Speaker 1: We must reject this path to nuclear war and work
Speaker 1: toward a world where no one has to live in
Speaker 1: fear of a nuclear holocaust.
Speaker 4: This is a mini documentary made to convince people to
Speaker 4: abandon Ukraine.
Speaker 2: That is the purpose of it.
Speaker 4: She is trying to convince us that support for Ukraine
Speaker 4: will lead to a nuclear holocaust that will get us
Speaker 4: all except for those elites who have their own bomb shelters.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Ian Bremer tweeted that out and said, closer to
Speaker 2: nuclear war than ever before possible because elites have access
Speaker 2: to bomb shelters. Questionable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, but Noah Rothman in The National Review points
Speaker 4: out many times we're much much, much closer to nuclear
Speaker 4: war than we are now, So that's just wrong. But
Speaker 4: and he also points out that, so where did this
Speaker 4: come from? Why would Telsea gabbert In puner country's integrity
Speaker 4: and terrorize the public as she talks about causing unnecessary fears?
Speaker 4: It's because Moscow's not coming around to Donald Trump's charms.
Speaker 4: As he put it, if you've succumbed to the delusion
Speaker 4: that Vladimir Putin is honest and that his invasions of
Speaker 4: Ukraine are the result of NATO's supposed aggression, then the
Speaker 4: Kremlin should have been satisfied by now. But Trump's peace
Speaker 4: overtures and concessions to Russia have failed to dissuade Moscow
Speaker 4: from pursuing its territorial ambitions with violence, bigger attacks every day.
Speaker 4: In the conspiracist's mind, Russia's stubbornness is evidence only that
Speaker 4: American dishonesty. He is even worse than we previously knew.
Speaker 2: I one of the many interesting things about the Trump
Speaker 2: administration in the way he does things. You know, he
Speaker 2: only has certain things that he's really interested in, and
Speaker 2: I think the rest of it doesn't pay much attention to.
Speaker 2: Does he have the slightest idea that she did that?
Speaker 2: Is he okay with that?
Speaker 4: His DNA is a big internal argument in the Trump administration,
Speaker 4: the abandoned Ukrainers versus the support Ukrainers, and this appears
Speaker 4: to be some sort of you know how it's ur
Speaker 4: blast for her side as the director of National Intelligence.
Speaker 2: She goes on to say, and I think this is important.
Speaker 2: I wish more people knew this. She goes on to say,
Speaker 2: the bombs we have now are many, many, multiple times
Speaker 2: more powerful than those I think most people think nuclear bomb,
Speaker 2: and they think Eroshima, which is bad enough, but it's
Speaker 2: significantly worse. It wouldn't be hundreds of thousands, it would
Speaker 2: be millions, these bombs are so much bigger now. If
Speaker 2: the point is to alert the world of that's what
Speaker 2: we're dealing with in the reality if we ever go
Speaker 2: to nuclear war, I'm fine with that. The problem is
Speaker 2: I believe sending the message to Putin and she that
Speaker 2: you can take land and there'll be no pushback gets
Speaker 2: us closer to nuclear war, not further from it, I
Speaker 2: would agree. And what the hell is the D and
Speaker 2: I doing doing this right? Right?
Speaker 4: Why is she you putting out America? You have to
Speaker 4: understand how horrible nuclear war would be? What the hell
Speaker 4: with certainly an implication, and maybe I'm reading too much
Speaker 4: into it. I don't think I am an immiglation that
Speaker 4: we implication that we shouldn't have done what we did
Speaker 4: to end World War two. She's one hundred percent, give
Speaker 4: Putin what he wants one hundred percent, And you think
Speaker 4: that would make the world safer from nuclear war?
Speaker 2: I think that's nuts. Armstrong and Getty
