1
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,840
Speaker 1: The eightieth anniversary of Pearl Harbor. Let's talk about it,

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: the history behind it. How did we get to that point?

3
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: And we're gonna talk about it because Joe Biden met

4
00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 1: with Vladimir Putin today and well you'll see, I'm right today,

5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: December seventh is the eightieth anniversary of Pearl Harbor, the

6
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: terrible attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese, and we're

7
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: gonna do a little different I'm right tonight. You see.

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: As you probably know by now, I am a history freak.

9
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,480
Speaker 1: I love it. I just obsessed over it. I read

10
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: books and documentaries and anything I can get my hands

11
00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: on it. I've always been this way. So let's do

12
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: a little history of Pearl Harbor. One out of respect

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: for the day, out of respect for the lives we lost,

14
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,080
Speaker 1: out of respect for our history. Remember, it's good for

15
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: you to know honest history of about your nation, not

16
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: the history we teach in this country, Honest history about

17
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: your nation. It's good to know that. And it's good

18
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: to know how the world works. You see, leadership decisions,

19
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: they have dire consequences, dire consequences, and we'll get to

20
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: that in a minute. But let's talk about Pearl Harbor.

21
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: First of all, how how do we ever get to

22
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: a point where an island nation clear across the Pacific

23
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 1: Ocean packed up the navy and came to attack us?

24
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: How and how could that possibly happen? Well, here's how

25
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: it happened. Japan was I don't want to call it backwards.

26
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: That's not fair, because I love Japan. I'm actually big

27
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,639
Speaker 1: fan of Japanese culture. But Japan, for a long long time,

28
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: simply out of respect for their own traditions, which are awesome,

29
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: refused to modernize at all. And then eighteen hundreds roll

30
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,639
Speaker 1: around and Japan looks around. They say to themselves, well,

31
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: we don't have technology here. We have muskets. The rest

32
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: of the world they're working on machine guns. If we

33
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 1: don't improve quickly, we're going to get destroyed. They decided

34
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: they were going to revitalize their nation, and they did

35
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: their economy, every part of it. They revitalized it while

36
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: keeping a lot of the old traditions. Will get to

37
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: that in a moment. It's always called the Meiji Restoration

38
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: of this interest you at all. I find it to

39
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: be a fascinating time. The country just woke up one

40
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 1: day to their credit and just decided we got to

41
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,960
Speaker 1: get better, and boom dug in and they got better.

42
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: It became a very modern nation. But success oftentimes almost

43
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: always comes at a cost, you see. Eventually they looked

44
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: around and found that they were quite a modern nation,

45
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: even had a modern army, modern navy. Life is good,

46
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: economy is going well. But we aren't stuck on this island.

47
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: We do have this big old navy and army. China

48
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: is right there. I wonder if we should do something like,

49
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, go take some of the stuff they have.

50
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: So that's what Japan did. They ventured in the country

51
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,959
Speaker 1: of China. This is a very turbulent time in Chinese history.

52
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: They weren't communists just yet. They were working on it.

53
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: They weren't communists just yet. Japan goes into China starts

54
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 1: gobbling up a bunch of natural resources. We the Americans

55
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,240
Speaker 1: and the British and others, we finally had enough of

56
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: it and we told Japan, Okay, what are you doing

57
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: in China? Get out in Japan. Very proud people, well

58
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: that's a good thing. Very proud people said, no, you

59
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: won't be telling us what to do. I think we're

60
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: going to stay ready. Here problem is, the United States

61
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: of America sold Japan almost everything Japan needed to keep

62
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: the trains running on time. We sold them their metal,

63
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: we sold them their oil. Finally, Americas said, Okay, get

64
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: out of China or you're not going to have anything

65
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 1: sold to you, not just by us, by anybody. Japan's

66
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: proud nation. Japan's not going to just sit back and

67
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: take that. So Japan started to think of other solutions.

68
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,919
Speaker 1: They only increase their aggression around their area. Finally, the

69
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,960
Speaker 1: United States of Americas started doing things like seizing American

70
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: held Japanese gold, things like that, really really trying to

71
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: twist the economic screws on them so they would back

72
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: off Japan. They chose a path that was insane, but

73
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,239
Speaker 1: they thought at the time it was their only path

74
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: for success. I will just as a personal note, this

75
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: is not a historical fact. This is a personal note.

76
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,160
Speaker 1: Part of it. I will say, this is one of

77
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: the most horrific decisions made by a country's leadership I've

78
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: ever seen in my entire life. But they did what

79
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: they did. Japan got together and they said, here's what

80
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: we can do. We have this great navy, we have

81
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: this great army. We are Japanese. We are better than everyone. Remember,

82
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 1: every single person in the history of the world is

83
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: prejudiced everyone everyone. That's the way we're built. It's not

84
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: a great thing. You don't want to be that way.

85
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,359
Speaker 1: But they were. Japan thought they were better than everyone.

86
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 1: We thought we were rather than everyone. That's just the

87
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: way it worked. Anyway, they got together and said, we're

88
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: japan We're better than anyone everyway. Anyway, we have this

89
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: great army, great navy. Here's what we're gonna do. We

90
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: are going to take our navy and we're going to

91
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: sail it across the Pacific Ocean. We're going to take

92
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 1: out the American Pacific Fleet, which was being held in

93
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,480
Speaker 1: Hawaii at the time. And once we take out the

94
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 1: Pacific Fleet, well, America will be hamstrung for a while.

95
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: Remember they weren't trying to defeat America. They weren't idiots.

96
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: They were very very sharp people. They knew that we

97
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: were going to build a new navy. They knew they

98
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't defeat us right there. We wouldn't just give up.

99
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 1: They knew they were going into a war, but their

100
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: plans to hurt us badly enough and so they would

101
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,479
Speaker 1: then take a bunch of places over in the Pacific,

102
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: the Philippines, all kinds of places, take their natural resources,

103
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 1: fortify those places, and then the soft Americans would simply

104
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 1: be too weak in Western to come take them back.

105
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: The costs would be too high, they wouldn't be willing

106
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: to do it. So they set sail. They actually hid

107
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,359
Speaker 1: most of their navy up close to I'm closer to

108
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: Alaska than anything else. Way way north in Japan. That's

109
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: where this fleet was held, the one that attacked us

110
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 1: on Pearl Harbor, and they took off. They took off

111
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: headed our way, by the grace of God. Although there

112
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: are a bunch of conspiracy theories about around this, the

113
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: most valuable ship by a mile in World War Two

114
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 1: were aircraft carriers. Aircraft carriers won the war. Planes taken

115
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: off from aircraft carriers doing all kinds of damage won

116
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: the war. By the grace of God, our aircraft carriers

117
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: on that fateful day on December seventh, they were actually

118
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: out doing maneuvers. They weren't parked in Pearl Harbor. That

119
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: was the good news. But there was bad news that

120
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: came with that day. A couple of things. One we

121
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: had invented rad well, we were using radar at the time.

122
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 1: Japan was not. We were This is a brand new thing.

123
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 1: We saw the Japanese planes coming in on radar and

124
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: it was just dismissed. It was just simply dismissed. That's

125
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 1: bad news number one. Bad news Number two was this

126
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: our ships were static. They were stuck at port. You see,

127
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: a ship has a lot more of a chance when

128
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: it's out and it's moving around and you can twist

129
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 1: and turn and bob around when you're being attacked. When

130
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 1: you have a ship that's tied up at the docks,

131
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: you just have very little chance. And let's talk about this.

132
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: To be honest, we didn't know we were at war Japan.

133
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: There are historical arguments around this. I will tell you

134
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: what I'm about to say is my personal belief, but

135
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: you'll find a thousand people who will argue against it.

136
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: Japan attacked us before they declared war on purpose. I

137
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: will always believe it was on purpose. There were internal

138
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: discussions in the country. They knew they needed a surprise

139
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: attack to hurt us badly enough. You're not going to

140
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 1: get a surprise attack if you declare war first. The

141
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: second Japan declared war, our ships would have left that

142
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: harbor and gone out to watch out for the Japanese fleet.

143
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: So about a half hour before they actually declared war,

144
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: they showed up and made war on Americans. Now, remember

145
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: this was Hawaii. This was a peaceful I mean, it

146
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: was a vacation destination. Practically, we weren't at war with anybody.

147
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: Our guys were asleep. This was a Sunday morning. December

148
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 1: seventh was a Sunday morning, and a lot of guys

149
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,079
Speaker 1: had been out that night, as guys do on a

150
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: late Saturday night. They were sleeping in and they woke

151
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 1: up to the sound of explosions, machine guns strafing ships.

152
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,560
Speaker 1: At first, there was so much confusion, as you could imagine.

153
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,800
Speaker 1: The guys thought it was a drill of some kind.

154
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: I don't understand what's happening. Very quickly they realized it

155
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: was not a drill, and very quickly American sailors started

156
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: dying and dying in ugly ways. It's a family show,

157
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: so I'm not going to get two into it, but

158
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: let's keep in mind how men were dying on Pearl

159
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: Harbor on this sacred day December seventh. They were getting

160
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: blown up, and honestly, those were the ones who got lucky.

161
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:28,480
Speaker 1: Of the ones who died, they were getting burned horrifically.

162
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: They would not only be burned by all the fires

163
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: and explosions on the ship that would jump off these ships,

164
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,599
Speaker 1: and there was a thick, layered inches thick of flammable

165
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: liquids in the ocean from the ships, and they would

166
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: hit the water and the flames would only get worse,

167
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,640
Speaker 1: believe it or not, or and there are some really

168
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: sad tales about this if you choose to look into it.

169
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: Or they would go down in a very shallow harbor.

170
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: They would go down with these ships and they would

171
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: just be there with the power off, in the dark,

172
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: some times for days as the oxygen slowly whittled away

173
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: and they perished. I didn't say that to shock you.

174
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 1: I said that so we understand what this day means.

175
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: A lot of people understand about Pearl Harbor. And just

176
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: see the picture we have one on the screen. A

177
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: lot of people have seen that picture. The reality of

178
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,599
Speaker 1: what men went through on that day with war undeclared

179
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: was horrific. And so let's just do a quick fast

180
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 1: forward from that day to the end of the war.

181
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,079
Speaker 1: There are a million ugly things in between. Let's talk

182
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: about the end of the war US in Japan. You

183
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 1: know how I warned you a lot on this show

184
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,959
Speaker 1: about US losing a major war, and you don't understand

185
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 1: what that looks like. And I talk to you about

186
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: our military and our leadership and how dangerous the situation is.

187
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: I just gave you the American perspective. That's the perspective

188
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: we all know from a Japanese perspective. A regular Japanese civilian,

189
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 1: remember not making any decisions, certainly not calling the shot.

190
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: They didn't decide to bomb Pearl Harbor. A Japanese civilian. Well,

191
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 1: you know, one hundred thousand people burned to death in Tokyo,

192
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: called Operation Meeting House. Most Americans don't even know about it.

193
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: They're too busy learning about the Native American genocide in school.

194
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: They don't teach actual history anymore. Go look up Operation

195
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,000
Speaker 1: Meeting House. We fire bomb Tokyo and killed one hundred

196
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 1: thousand people in flames. That's to say nothing of hirosium

197
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: Nagasaki wiping out massive cities in a wonderful country with

198
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 1: wonderful traditions. And I'm not criticizing those decisions. Either I

199
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: don't do that. I'm not doing that. I'm saying, look

200
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: at the damage done to a nation because of its

201
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: insane leadership. Because of leadership, they got so misguided, so

202
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,640
Speaker 1: twisted up, they didn't understand fully the stakes of the

203
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 1: game they were playing. The leadership of Japan is responsible

204
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 1: for wiping out gosh, how many of their people, how

205
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: much of their wonderful culture has gone now? And I

206
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: said all that to you because Vladimir Putin he met

207
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: with our current president Joe Biden today and yeah, they

208
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 1: we're talking about Ukraine. Russia has one hundred and seventy

209
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: five thousand troops on the border. Clearly Russia has plans

210
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 1: Ukraine's defense chief. He says, you're ready for a blood bad.

211
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: I am not believe that. I will not believe that

212
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 1: Russian will have a victory in Ukraine. It's a different

213
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: because it will be a really blood in Osaka, and

214
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 1: Russian guys also will come back in the coffers. Yes,

215
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: these are the stakes of the game we play. Why

216
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: is Russia on the move? Why is China out there

217
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: spending fifty percent more than India, Japan, Taiwan and Southeast

218
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 1: Asia come buying on their military. You don't think they're

219
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: spending all that so we can look nice and shiny

220
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: in the ocean, do you. You don't think they're spending

221
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: all that military money so they can have fancy parades,

222
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 1: do you. They're gonna want a ROI, a return on investment.

223
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna want something for that. So why why is

224
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: Russia on the move? Why is China on the move? Well,

225
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: we elected Joe Biden. I'm not trying to just be

226
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: partisan about this, but I don't know of another way

227
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 1: to put it. When you elect a half functional, ancient

228
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,960
Speaker 1: human being who frankly doesn't think very much of the country,

229
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: and he continues to bumble his way through his first

230
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: year with embarrassment after embarrassment on the world stage. As

231
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 1: I've tried to sit here in this chair and warn

232
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 1: you a thousand times, you are playing a very dangerous game.

233
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: Because the world now as the world just as it

234
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: was back in the nineteen forties, It is full of

235
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,439
Speaker 1: evil people in evil leaders who are just seeking any

236
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 1: opportunity to gobble up other nations and spread death and misery.

237
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,840
Speaker 1: And the reason those evil men don't do those things

238
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: oftentimes is because there is a strong nation out there

239
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: they know will stand up to them, and that strong

240
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: nation simply doesn't exist anymore. What's our response to Chinese aggression?

241
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: What's our response to the Russian aggression? What's our response

242
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: to Chinese genocide? They're currently doing oregon harvesting over there

243
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: of the weaker Muslims. What's the American response? Woh, well,

244
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: We're not going to send diplomats to the Olympics. The

245
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: Biden administration will not send any diplomatic or official representation

246
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 1: to the Beijing twenty twenty two Winter Olympics and Paralympic

247
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: Games given the pr scenes ongoing genocide and crimes against

248
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: a humanity in jin Jong, and other human rights abuses.

249
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: The athletes on Team USA have our full support. We

250
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,880
Speaker 1: will be behind them one hundred percent as we cheer

251
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: them on from home. We will not be contributing to

252
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: the fanfare of the games. Okay, so we're sending our

253
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: athletes what That's insane, but we're doing it. China, China

254
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: just flat out left in our faces. Quote this Chinese.

255
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: To be honest, Chinese are relieved to hear the news

256
00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: because the fewer the US officials come, the fewer viruses

257
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: will be brought in. That In case you're wondering his

258
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: reference to the often repeated saying in China that we

259
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 1: are the ones who created coronavirus. That's how little they

260
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: respect us. That's how little respect we now command on

261
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: the world stage. And look, why would they respect us?

262
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,560
Speaker 1: Why would they respect us? Don't you remember we have

263
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: a president whose whole family is in bed with this country.

264
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 1: Our American media chose to intentionally bury that story, calling

265
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: it Russian disinformation. To this day, they won't address the

266
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: fact the Biden family appears financially beholden to our world enemy.

267
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 1: Shortly after President Biden's virtual meeting with the Chinese president,

268
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: her son's attorney said that he has finally divested from

269
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,440
Speaker 1: a Chinese investment fund controlled by state owned entities. I

270
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: was hoping you could commit to basic transparency about that transaction,

271
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: including the name of the buyer, at the dollar amount,

272
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 1: in the timing. And the second question is my colleague,

273
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: Miranda Devine has a new book out called The Laptop

274
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: from Hell, and I was hoping that you could confirmed

275
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: that the laptop is indeed authentic and not Russian disinformation.

276
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 1: As you seem to suggest on Twitter last year. Well,

277
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: on the first, the president's son is not an employee

278
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 1: of the federal government, so i'd point you to his representatives.

279
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: And as it relates to the book, I have neither

280
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: had the time nor interest in exploring or reading the book.

281
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: Go ahead, I think I answered your question. Go ahead,

282
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: you can go to the representative of the person who's

283
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,199
Speaker 1: not an employee of the federal government. Go ahead, Tina,

284
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: I think we have to move on. Go ahead, anything

285
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: the way. I just want to remind you what we

286
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 1: just got done talking about again, one hundred thousand people

287
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: burning to death in Tokyo, the asphalt in the street

288
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: melting people into it as they run down the road.

289
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,159
Speaker 1: When I bring these things up to you, it is

290
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: not to shock you. It is so you understand the

291
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: stakes of the game. These are the stakes of the game.

292
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: Remember that the next time you go to the polls.

293
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: All that may have made you uncomfortable, but I'm right.

294
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: Speaking of uncomfortable, my friend Julie Kelly joins us. Next,

295
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: did a DC police officer beat a woman to death

296
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: on January sixth? And we don't know about it? And

297
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: they're not telling us about it. We're gonna talk to

298
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:04,479
Speaker 1: Julie Kelly about that, but first let me talk to

299
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: you about flipping houses. That's enough ugliness. Let's talk about

300
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 1: something good. The money is great when you flip houses.

301
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: It is people end up making great money at this.

302
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 1: They make great livings on a lot. Some people gotten

303
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: rich on it. But let's pause that for a second.

304
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 1: You know how much fun it is. I know why

305
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: they make so many TV shows about it. Now, all

306
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,200
Speaker 1: we bought this for this and then we sold it.

307
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: Go to Flipping made easy dot com and sign up.

Speaker 1: We'll be bad. Lives were lost, extraordinary courage was summoned.

317
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 1: The insurrection was an existential crisis, a test on whether

318
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,920
Speaker 1: our democracy could survive, and it did, the worst pandemic

319
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,040
Speaker 1: in a century, The worst economic crisis is the Great Depression,

320
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 1: the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.

321
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: These people joining me now, my friend obviously the great

322
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: author with American greatness, Julie Kelly, Julie, can you believe

323
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 1: we survived that, that terrible attack on our democracy? I'm

324
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: just done? I know, how did we survive? Jacob Chansley,

325
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 1: the qan On Shamon and all of those me mods

326
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: from Indiana taking selfies in Statuary Hall. I mean, we

327
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,360
Speaker 1: barely survived, Jess. We're here eleven months later only by

328
00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 1: the grace of God. Really, we have to Hey, thank

329
00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:00,520
Speaker 1: you Lord, thank you. It all serious, Jewel. Did the

330
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 1: Capitol police beat the woman to death that day? It's

331
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: looking more and more like it wouldn't be Capitol Police, Jesse,

332
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: would be DC Metro Police. So those were the two

333
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: law enforcement agencies on the ground for the entire day.

334
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: So what looks like what we're hoping is three hours

335
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: of surveillance video. As you know, Jesse, the government has

336
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: fourteen thousand hours of surveillance video that they want to

337
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: keep so Americans don't see the worst attack on our

338
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: democracy since the Civil War, which seems odd. So we're

339
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 1: trying the court is trying to determine whether they will

340
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 1: release three hours of surveillance video inside this Lower West

341
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: Terrace tunnel where there was some brutal clashes between police

342
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 1: and protesters. It was the site where Rosanne Boylan died.

343
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: It was also the site location where another woman was

344
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,119
Speaker 1: viciously beaten by not one, but two DC police officers.

345
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 1: And so we're hoping that that video gets released and

346
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 1: the American people can judge for themselves if Joe Biden

347
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: is lying about yet one more thing about our country. Julie,

348
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: I'm I'm very sad to say that most people in

349
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 1: this country don't even know the name Roseanne Boiling. But

350
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: who is this woman? Why was she in the tunnel? Why?

351
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they have already released footage of them putting

352
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: down this dangerous insurrectionist. Why? Right? Because they don't want

353
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 1: the American people to know the truth about what happened

354
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,240
Speaker 1: to Roseanne Boylan. She used a thirty four year old

355
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,360
Speaker 1: young woman Trump supporter from Georgia. She went there with

356
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: her friend Justin Winchell's. She ended up near that tunnel

357
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:40,120
Speaker 1: area where these clashes were occurring. We're not exactly sure

358
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: how she got there, but Jesse there was I talked

359
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: to so many people. There's such a mob of people

360
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 1: they couldn't even move around, and police were kind of

361
00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: were in that tunnel almost as a bunker as they

362
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,080
Speaker 1: were attacking protesters, which they did all afternoon by the way,

363
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,160
Speaker 1: So it looks like Rose and Boylan did not dive

364
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 1: an accellentent drug overdose, as the hyperpartisan DC coroner has said,

365
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 1: but succumbed to probably a very noxious chemical guess that

366
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 1: was being used inside of that tunnel, and also probably

367
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:16,400
Speaker 1: succumbed to some beatings by DC police officers. You could

368
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,520
Speaker 1: see a little bit of that video there she is

369
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 1: laying face up to here there, face up outside of

370
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 1: that tunnel, where she afterwards is dragged back through the

371
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 1: tunnel by Officer Gannelle. Sergeant gannell one of the celebrity

372
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: cops who testified at the January sixth committee, dragged her

373
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 1: lifeless body through this tunnel, where he then meets up

374
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 1: with Officer Harry Dunn, another celebrity police officer. They cold

375
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: her body there near Stenny Hoyer's office until paramedics arrive

376
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 1: and she's pronounced dead officially at six Z nine that day.

377
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 1: A lot of unanswered questions, and this will be another

378
00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,320
Speaker 1: narrative that is going to fall apart very quickly to

379
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: the events of that day. Okay, Julie, the footage you

380
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: already referenced, fourteen thousand hours of footage that's being withheld.

381
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: I think you and I both understand why. Everybody watching

382
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: understands why they don't want us to see how benign

383
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: this thing was. But what's their justification for? What are

384
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 1: they saying? What's the lie they're telling? So the fourteen

385
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,959
Speaker 1: thousand hours of surveillance video has been designated highly sensitive

386
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: government material and this was from the onset. So every

387
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 1: single clip that is derived from that trove a video

388
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: is under protective order in every single now almost seven

389
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: hundred cases, seven hundred defendants in the January sixth investigation.

390
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,439
Speaker 1: So in order to unseal that protective order, the defense

391
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 1: Council has to go to the court and ask for

392
00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: it to be unsealed. Now in some instances it has

393
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: And Jesse, this is interesting. There's a group of sixteen

394
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 1: major media at companies The New York Times, CNN, Wall

395
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 1: Street Journal, etc. Who have abandoned together and are also

396
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: petitioning the court to unseal the secret footage. They have

397
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: joined Attorney Joseph McBride in asking for this three hour

398
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: slice to be unsealed released from a protective order so

399
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: we can see exactly what happened inside that tunnel, which

400
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: will tell us not only what really happened to Rosanne Boyland,

401
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: but also police what one attorney describes as police brutality

402
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: inside that tunnel against female Trump supporters and more female

403
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 1: trans supporters. As you know, one was already killed by

404
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 1: Capitol Police. Ashley Babbitt. Okay, Julie, help me understand this though,

405
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 1: CNN and New York Times, these are not exactly what

406
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: I would consider to be news organizations at all. That

407
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 1: sounds like, I mean, listen, do you talk? Are they

408
00:24:54,840 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 1: doing journalism now right? It's really shocking. And I'll tell

409
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: you I think initially they joined a lot of these

410
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 1: motions to unseal the footage, thinking that it would hold

411
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: more of the insurrectionist in a poor light. But what's

412
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:14,600
Speaker 1: happening and a forty minute piece was unsealed by the

413
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: courts a few months ago. Forty minutes you saw Capitol

414
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: police open the doors and let about three hundred protesters

415
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,960
Speaker 1: in on the upper level of the Capitol Building around

416
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 1: two forty five on January sixth. So some of this

417
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: is backfiring, but I do think in this case, these

418
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 1: news organizations want to see the surveillance video. They want

419
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 1: to see what happened inside that tunnel because of course

420
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: that was the location where Rosanne Boylan died, and they

421
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: want to, reluctantly, I think, now almost a year later,

422
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of her death and not go

423
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 1: along with the idea that she died of an accidental

424
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: drug overdose, because as you're showing, even the bodycam footage

425
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: from DC police really contradicts the idea that she just

426
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,359
Speaker 1: suddenly drops dead of an overdose of method of amphetamines,

427
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 1: which is part of her daily adderall medication that she takes.

428
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: So we're going to find out the DC coroner lied

429
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 1: about that and find out exactly what police did to

430
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: not just Rosanne Boylan, but other people in that tunnel too.

431
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 1: Julie Kelly, thank you so much for what you're doing.

432
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: Please keep on and keep on these people. Thank you well.

433
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: Thanks Jesse. All Right, we got and as Stepman joining

434
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 1: us next. But first, do you own a home? I

435
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,399
Speaker 1: will tell you I'm forty. I'm not ninety, but I'm forty,

436
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 1: so I'm apparently getting too old to understand how modern

437
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 1: crime has gotten. I don't think about cyber cyber crimer us,

438
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: at least I used to not. It's just that's not

439
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 1: what I thought about. It's okay, there's cyber criminals. I

440
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 1: didn't understand it. I didn't even know my home title

441
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 1: was online. If you own a home, your home title

442
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 1: was online. It's out there in the cloud, and right

443
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,679
Speaker 1: now as we speak, there are criminals looking for it,

444
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,199
Speaker 1: and if they find it, they're going to hack into yours.

445
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: This is happening to people all across America. They're going

446
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 1: to forge your signature on it, and they're going to

447
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: go take a loan out against it, and you're going

448
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: to have to pay that loan back. There's no stopping

449
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 1: them except for home title Lock. If you go to

450
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: home title lock dot com use their promo code radio,

451
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: go to home title lock dot com and sign up,

452
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: you'll be protected. They'll detect any tampering and shut it

453
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,240
Speaker 1: down like that home title lock dot Com. We'll be

454
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 1: right back with as Deema to day in the r City,

455
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: we announced a mandate all frivosector employers must have their

456
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: employees and actually advice twenty seven. This is what's going

457
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: to keep us safety. This is kind of thing we

458
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 1: need to do now, not just here but everywhere, so

459
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: we can leave COVID behind once and fall. Okay, a

460
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,640
Speaker 1: couple of things on that. One, I hate Bill de Blasio. Two,

461
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 1: if you're going to announce a new tyrannical communist mandate

462
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 1: for the greatest city in the United States of America,

463
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: could you at least get someplace quiet without wind in

464
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 1: people talking. I don't know what this real world thing is,

465
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: but I don't find it appealing at all. Joining me

466
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:16,919
Speaker 1: now to talk about that. In other things, is my

467
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 1: friend and as Stepman. She's the senior policy analyst for

468
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: the Independent Women's Forum. And as first and foremost, why

469
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: do people do these videos on the sidewalk? I couldn't

470
00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 1: even understand what that Dumbo was saying. It's supposed to

471
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 1: give you the real life experience of being next to

472
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: build a Blasio, because that's an experience that so many

473
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 1: people are seeking these days. In New York City. There's

474
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: a premium for that grainy experience and actually a tyranny

475
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,880
Speaker 1: close up. You know, it's it's like it's an attraction.

476
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: We sell tickets. I feel so close to him now,

477
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: I've never felt so good. All right, And also is this.

478
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 1: I love New York, as you well know. I adore

479
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 1: the city. I used to go every single chance I get.

480
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 1: I'm not even vaccinated, so I can't go back. But

481
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: it continues to get worse. Last time I was there

482
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 1: that we're people peeing on the sidewalk broad day light

483
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 1: in front of me. It's a crime bridden disaster. And

484
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: as please tell me Bill de Blasio, Yeah, he's about done.

485
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 1: Please tell me his legacy is about to be wiped

486
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: out by Eric Adams, the next guy. Um. Well, I

487
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 1: mean I was actually just talking to Seth Baron on

488
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,640
Speaker 1: my podcast recently, as in yesterday, about this um and

489
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,480
Speaker 1: whether or not he's optimistic, and he's a lifelong New Yorker.

490
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: He was less optimistic. I mean, Eric Adams has said

491
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 1: some things that make you feel a little bit optimistic.

492
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, the you know, the bar is low.

493
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: This is obviously a big blue city, um. But the

494
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: incoming mayor has, for example, you know, he said he

495
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: will not defund the police. Um, and he has and

496
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: he pushed back actually during a Democratic primary on that,

497
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: one of only two candidates in the Democratic primary to

498
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: say he wouldn't defund the police, just to show you

499
00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,719
Speaker 1: where the bar is. And he's also not as hostile

500
00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:01,200
Speaker 1: to charter schools and school choice as Billio famously hostile

501
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: to charter schools in New York City. So there's some

502
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: hopeful noise. And on this mandate specifically, UM, he didn't

503
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 1: really say he would repeal it, but he declined to

504
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: say that he would uphold it or continue it. So

505
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: there's at least a chance that he might repeal that.

506
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean, this mandate really goes too far, even within

507
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: the spectrum of sort of um COVID measures in big

508
00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: blue cities. It's extended to children, which means, as of now,

509
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: the majority of children whose parents are worried about getting

510
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: them vaccinated under the age of eleven can't go to restaurants,

511
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 1: they can't go to the met they can't go to

512
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: the Natural History Museum, right, Um, they can't go to

513
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: any of the performances. They can't you go to the

514
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: Rockefeller to Rockefeller Center, right and he's shutting down the

515
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 1: city for people with kids right before the Christmas holidays,

516
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: where a lot of people probably have plans to come

517
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: in to the city to see some of the Christmas cheer.

518
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,040
Speaker 1: So yeah, I hope this mandate will be overturned. It

519
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: won't be before he leaves office, so certainly for Christmas

520
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: this will be in effect. Well, I'm glad you actually

521
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: brought up that point about families canceling things. I did

522
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: see our mutual friend Carol Mark, which she came out

523
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 1: and she said, the sound you here is a bunch

524
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,280
Speaker 1: of families canceling Christmas plans to New York. I mean,

525
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 1: New York is famously, well, at least used to be

526
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: a really really cool place around Christmas time. Surely, I mean,

527
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: all my thoughts on mandates aside. Surely the businesses of

528
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 1: New York have to be just about broken by all this, right,

529
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: And as I mean, I realized, this is a big

530
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: finance city, it's a big ports city. Tourist dollars meet

531
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: a lot for New York, and they surely aren't coming

532
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: in as fast as they used to. Well, and their

533
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: deputizing businesses to enforce something unpopular, right, So One of

534
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: the clever parts about this, or diabolically clever parts about this,

535
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,080
Speaker 1: is that these mandates have been enforced by businesses, right,

536
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: So the businesses will get fined by the government if

537
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 1: they don't do it. So one, the government's offshoring the

538
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 1: unpleasant business of like, you know, actually asking people for

539
00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 1: their papers, right, So it's not the police doing it.

540
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: It has to be the businesses and they have to

541
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: deal with people upset about it, and as it just

542
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: sort of offloads the responsibility, but it also obscures who's

543
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,160
Speaker 1: actually responsible. Right, So like, if you're not following politics

544
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,479
Speaker 1: and you don't really care, but you don't like some

545
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 1: of these mandates and you're sick of being asked for

546
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 1: your bax papers everywhere, you blame the businesses because they're

547
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: the ones directly enforcing this, right, So it obscures the

548
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: accountability for the government as well, which is I think

549
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: part of the plan. But really does I think it's

550
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: kind of clever, honestly, it's it's diabolically clever in terms

551
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: of offloading their response to businesses rather than to the

552
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: people responsible for putting the mandate in place, and as

553
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: not just the New York but nationwide. Obviously, we see

554
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 1: the condition to cities like San Francisco again, a formerly

555
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 1: beautiful city that has just been trashed. We see Chicago.

556
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: I know, people dog on Chicago. Now Chicago is awesome,

557
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 1: but at least at one point in time was awesome.

558
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 1: The condition of America's cities is not only bad. There's

559
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 1: not really a sign that's going to change directions. Eric

560
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: Adams or no Eric Adams, At what point is there

561
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: a bottom in is we're even Democrats, which are obviously

562
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: mostly New York step up and say, okay, we can't

563
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 1: live in a sewer. We got a change direction? Is

564
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: there a bottom for these people? You know, I'm never

565
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: sure about this, you would think, and I actually don't think.

566
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,959
Speaker 1: Having lived exclusively in blue cities my entire life, I mean,

567
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: grew up south of San Francisco, spent a ton of

568
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 1: time in San Francisco growing up, lived in Washington, d C.

569
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: For many years, and now living in New York City.

570
00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 1: New York is in some ways the most balanced of

571
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: these big blue cities in the sense that they have

572
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: finance interest here a lot of people. They're just not

573
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: focused on politics in the same way that that DC is.

574
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 1: You can't escape the narrative here, whereas in DC almost

575
00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: it feels like being in North Korea. Like literally everywhere.

576
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure there are North Koreans who see Kim

577
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,080
Speaker 1: Jong UN's face less than it was. Just taking a

578
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 1: walk around DC, the narrative slaps you in the face

579
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 1: in a thousand different ways. You know, New York City

580
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,959
Speaker 1: isn't quite like that. And actually, I mean, I go

581
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,640
Speaker 1: on my neighborhood apps and stuff. People are not taking

582
00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 1: the rising crime laying down like they are. They're ticked

583
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:14,399
Speaker 1: off about it. There's a lot of you know, aft

584
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 1: to build a Blasio sort of chatter in neighborhood apps.

585
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,840
Speaker 1: But there is a democratic machine here that is largely

586
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: the problem. A lot of these things, as they are

587
00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: in the rest of the country, are institutionalized. So even

588
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: if Eric Adams comes in with some reasonable rollback of

589
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: some of these things, some of them are written into law,

590
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 1: he's going to be dealing with a very left wing

591
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: city council. It truly is sort of institutionalized here. And

592
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: what I worry about is what happened in the seventies

593
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:47,160
Speaker 1: and eighties, right where this spiral of urban life chased

594
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 1: everyone who could eventually out, and then you have a

595
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,640
Speaker 1: both a smaller tax base and less money, and you

596
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,799
Speaker 1: have the sort of concentration of the ideology right where

597
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: where everyone's saying, eventually can't live with it anymore, and

598
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: and and moves out. Um and then the people who

599
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: are left go more and more left because there's no

600
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,399
Speaker 1: common sense counterbalancing, Like I don't see San Francisco turning

601
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 1: around anytime soon, even though it's universally agreed that the

602
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: city is almost unlivable now. And I'm not I love

603
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: cities and I love San Francisco. Um, but but the

604
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 1: city San Francisco is unlivable now. New York's not there yet,

605
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:28,320
Speaker 1: but it will be. I'm with you. I love cities.

606
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: I mean I love the country too. I love it all.

607
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: But I think cities are awesome, fun places, and I

608
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: think it. I think it. I think it hurts the

609
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 1: country as a whole, the country I love so much,

610
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: when it's major cities are in such a bad condition.

611
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: And as I think us as the United States of America,

612
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: I think it looks bad when New York sucks all

613
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 1: of a sudden, When when Chicago sucks, I think it

614
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 1: it's a poor reflection of the entire country. I do. Yeah,

615
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 1: I mean this is this is maybe a little bit parochial.

616
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: But don't forget that when people visit the United States,

617
00:35:55,520 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: they mostly judged by our cities, right, Um, European for example, tourists,

618
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:06,520
Speaker 1: you know, they judge Americans by New York City, San Francisco, La, Chicago. Um.

619
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 1: And and you know right now, we're our flagship cities

620
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 1: are are head in the wrong direction. And I am

621
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: as an American, I don't like to hear uh from

622
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 1: from you know, family elsewhere or whatever when they come here. Oh,

623
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,720
Speaker 1: like your cities are so dirty or so crime written.

624
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 1: You know, how can you be the the you know,

625
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: world's greatest country if you can't you have so many

626
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: homeless on your street right like, and having to explain

627
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: of all of these terrible liberal policies to people from

628
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:35,239
Speaker 1: outside of the country, it's embarrassing. I mean, you know,

629
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: these are the flagship cities of the United States, and

630
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 1: like you, I love the country as well. Um, but

631
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: I think the kind of reflected anti urbanism of the

632
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: right sometimes is is uh not not as thoughtful as

633
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: it should be. Um, this is not how city life

634
00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: has to be. This is a deliberate series of policy

635
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 1: choices that has made city life this way. Agreed and

636
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,840
Speaker 1: as Stepman, thank you so much. I appreciate you as always,

637
00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:05,640

639
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: about Christmas shopping. I'm talking about insurance shopping. I know

640
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 1: everyone's out there doing it right now, and I know

641
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,799
Speaker 1: the selection is not good. Is that putting it nice?

642
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:24,480

Speaker 1: to promo code Jesse Kelly, We'll be back. I'll say

656
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: something that a lot of people aren't gonna like. Maybe

657
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: you won't like it, but it's true and it needs

658
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:29,240
Speaker 1: to be said more often. Yes, America's cities are going

659
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,439
Speaker 1: down the toilet. As we go into our this week

660
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,840
Speaker 1: in vocalism, they're going down the toilet. And yes, for

661
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: the most part, I'm encouraging you to flee them and

662
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: get to a red area, enjoy yourself, enjoy living around

663
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,439
Speaker 1: people who share your values. But having said all that,

664
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,720
Speaker 1: I actually take no pleasure in watching American cities circle

665
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: the drain. I think, as a country, your cities are

666
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: a huge part of your country. They are obviously rural

667
00:38:56,640 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 1: America is too, but cities are an important part of

668
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: a nation. Your major cities are a reflection on you,

669
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: on you as a country. How were you doing in

670
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: America's cities are well, they're just a disaster. Could you

671
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: see this story about San Francisco. This restaurant in San Francisco,

672
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: they refused to serve police officers who were in uniform.

673
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,840
Speaker 1: They refuse to serve them. They set out an email

674
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 1: saying quote, their restaurant is a safe space, particularly for

675
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 1: queer and BIPOC individuals. I don't even know what bipoc is.

676
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: I'm so happy I now don't even understand these words anymore.

677
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: And that the officers made the staff feel uncomfortable, so

678
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,040
Speaker 1: they asked them to leave. They said sorry the decision

679
00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 1: upset others, and then signed their email with preferred pronouns.

680
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,200
Speaker 1: Later on, of course, they got a bunch of one

681
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,239
Speaker 1: star reviews to the restaurant. They apologize for mistakes, so

682
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 1: on and so forth. But let's set all that stuff aside.

683
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: Forget about the specifics of this. How did we get

684
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,440
Speaker 1: here so fast? I mean, look, I understand cities have

685
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: they go through ups and downs. Sometimes you'll have a

686
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 1: city that's been a very dangerous place for a period

687
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,480
Speaker 1: of time. New York, New York in the seventies, great example,

688
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: bad leadership, city goes bad. They turn things around. So

689
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 1: cities have ups and downs. When did America's cities turn

690
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 1: into absolute filthy dumps. Because doesn't it seem like it

691
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 1: was about five minutes ago. It was like now that

692
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: they were doing great, but the cities were okay. And

693
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 1: then Saint George Floyd dies and all the defund the

694
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,280
Speaker 1: police stuff comes out and they start slashing and burning

695
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: police funding and blaming everything on the cops. And now

696
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 1: there's poop on the streets in San Francisco. I've told

697
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 1: you the story before. Last time I was in New

698
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,359
Speaker 1: York at noon, I'm walking down the sidewalk. Some dude

699
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: just drops his pants right in front of me and

700
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: starts peeing. This is the condition now of American cities,

701
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: and I don't take any pleasure in it. I don't

702
00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:00,239
Speaker 1: this This woke crap is destroying our cities. I want

703
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: to live in a country where I can visit San Francisco,

704
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,239
Speaker 1: where I want to visit New York again, a city

705
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,680
Speaker 1: I love so much, and I think it's absolutely wretched

706
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: that we've allowed the communists to take over these places.

707
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,279

Speaker 1: admit that male pride has gotten many a man in trouble,

720

Speaker 1: every now and then, the don't bother me, I'll do

723
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: it myself attitude ends up pretty cool for light in

00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 1: the mood. Enjoy a dude who didn't need any help.

725
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 1: That's amazing. My back hurt just looking at that. It

726
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 1: wasn't just the unloading it. It was that now he's

727
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 1: gonna have to bend over and haul that thing to

728
00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: the garage. His lower basket will be shot. But I

729

Speaker 1: still respect it, all right, See them all, Hi, Hi,
