You could not vote government control 25 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: in the wet blanket, the suffocating, wet blanket of government 26 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: over intervention into all of our lives and businesses. I 27 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: hear what you say, too late, Joe, too late. Yeah, well, 28 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: you're right. But I suppose the choice then becomes, do 29 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 1: we do whatever we can to make it better or 30 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: do we just let it become worse for our kids 31 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: and our grandkids and posterity, etc. So anyway, I'm looking 32 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: forward to that conversation.

It's flown so far under the radar, mostly 44 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: because of the incredibly exciting and action packed international news 45 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: these days, specifically you know, Visa, Iran and Israel. But 46 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: there are some really interesting inroads being made, the battle 47 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 1: lines being moved forward in the war against number one 48 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: woke education but number two, and I was going to 49 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 1: say maybe more importantly, but boy, they're both so important. 50 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: But also the war against completely ineffective, union choked, useless 51 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: government schools. What can we do to stim mulate competition 52 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: and education, which might be the most important thing we 53 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: can do as a country. It speaking of posterity in 54 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: our kids and our grandkids. Boy, if we're serving them 55 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: as ill as we've been with our government education system 56 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, oh my goodness, may history, 57 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: you know, dig up our graves and kick our bones. 58 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: I mean, we've got to do better than that. So anyway, 59 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: looking forward to that, and that's not even all of 60 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: what we're doing. I just didn't want to, you know, 61 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: make a list too long, so I hope you can 62 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: stay tuned, Hope you enjoy it.

You remember Operation Midnight Hammer, the very trumpy name, 70 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: very trumpy name for us successfully executing that incredible, mind 71 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: boggling mission of the thirty seven hour round trip the 72 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: B two bombers and the bunker busters and the rest 73 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: of it. And it's one of those things you know. 74 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: None of us I'm well, actually some of your listening 75 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: probably do know what it takes. But none of us 76 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: here fully appreciated the complexity of the mission. I mean, 77 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty aircraft were involved, going thousands of 78 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: miles back and forth. And the more you learn, the 79 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: more in awe you are of the capabilities of the 80 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: United States military. Appropriately so well, Operation Narnia was the 81 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: name of the Israeli mission, which included not only the 82 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: bombings of the facilities, but the super targeted knocking off 83 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: of the various nuclear scientists and military leaders practically simultaneously. 84 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: Years in the planning. Just astounding sophistication, coordination, and daring. 85 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: And I can't wait to tell you more about that 86 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: a little bit later on the show, because it's it's 87 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: it's just absolutely awe inspiring. But first, why don't we, 88 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 1: uh we hate to run a foul of FCC rules 89 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: and regulations right before vacation. I have to fill out 90 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 1: paperwork qulli vacation. So here we go according to the 91 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: FCC rules and REGs. Joke starts fishally at Mark, and. 92 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 2: The President looks over at me, puts the foreign leader 93 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: on mute and says this is not going very well, 94 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: and he presses the red button and and my eyes 95 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: get really big, and I'm like, mister President, you know 96 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 2: what what just happened? And he's he looks at me 97 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 2: and he goes nuclear nuclear. 98 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: And two minutes later, a. 99 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 2: Guy walks in with a diet coke and he looks 100 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: back at me and he says it wasn't nuclear. 101 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: It's just the diet cook button. And that's. 102 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: So that's the kind of guy, my fellow Republicans, that 103 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 2: we have as the President of the United States. 104 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: JD.

And I can't remember the 175 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: author's name. I'm sure you can google it easily enough, 176 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: but I'm sure they paced back and forth in their 177 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 1: seventy million dollar mansion saying, mandad they screw up my book. 178 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: It was a really good book.

I don't know. It's an action packed 186 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 1: show right now. Let's figure out who's reporting what. It's 187 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: the weak story with Katie Green. 188 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 7: Katie did it starting with NBC White House to limit 189 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 7: intelligence sharing with Congress after leak of early Iran report. 190 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: Well, that certainly suggests that they think it was a 191 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: congressional source. M see an end. 192 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 7: Iran's defense minister thanks China for support on first foreign 193 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 7: trip since Israel conflict. 194 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: Oh, how desperate are they to find a friend summer anywhere? 195 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: For anything? They'll take it. Oh, speaking of that that 196 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 1: stupid super preliminary report leak thing, the Washington Post, which 197 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: is just shameless, referred to that leaked report with seriousness 198 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: even today, as if it's They were talking about the 199 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 1: briefing that the senators got, and how the Democrats came 200 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: out with a completely different story than the Republicans walking 201 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: out of the briefing as if they'd heard different briefings. 202 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 1: And the Washington Post, with furrowed brow observes that what 203 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: the Republicans claimed was in real contrast to that leaked report, 204 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: which was discredited like an hour after it came out. 205 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: But the WAPO is still leaning on it. Seriously, you people, please. 206 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 7: From the Wall Street Journal, US futures rise, dollar recovers 207 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 7: slightly on trade optimism, as Commerce Secretary Lutnick said US 208 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 7: has reached a trade agreement with China. 209 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, China just said, all right, we'll free up the 210 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: rarer stuff, your magnets and the rest of it.

I still maintain this will 216 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: go nowhere. You're in the business of proving a negative 217 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: that Biden was not cognizant enough to be president and 218 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: and wasn't actively running the show and the rest. And 219 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: then even if you were able to prove that, you 220 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: never will. Now what do you do. You're going to 221 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: impeach the guy. It's got one foot and four toes 222 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: in the grave, flat batt capt care And I know 223 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: scandal's horrible, unbelievable.

I've got to admit I'm somewhat intrigued. Yeah, 233 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: the idea of people running around with soft off shotguns 234 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: in effect. 235 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 7: Did boy from Fox News Planned parent hurt hmm, Planned 236 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 7: Parenthood encourages men to get cervical cancer screening for men's 237 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 7: health months. 238 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 1: Well, see that that won't be necessary because men don't 239 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 1: have cervixes, you see. 240 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 7: Ah, that must be why men is in quotes for 241 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 7: this headline, because it's a woman who's pretending to be 242 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 7: a man. 243 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: Oh oh, that's weird because women do have cervixes right 244 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: pretty much always, and men never ever have them.

We're joined by a military analyst, Mike Lyons, 280 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: to discuss a handful of topics. Mike, how are you, sir, Hey, 281 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: good morning. 282 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 4: I thought the same thing bag Dad Bob. The level 283 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 4: of propaganda coming out of Iran right now, I guess 284 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 4: has to be what it is, as they're now probably 285 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 4: fighting to make sure other information is not getting into 286 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 4: the country. But that's exactly right. We've got a repeater 287 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 4: history from about twenty years ago. 288 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: Right you read in my mind, I was just going 289 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 1: to say, I can't even imagine what the conversations behind 290 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: the scenes are like there in the halls of power 291 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: in Tehran. It's got to be a combination of you know, frantic, terror, 292 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 1: stricken and angry. 293 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, and think about the levels of leadership that have 294 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 4: been taken out already by the Israelis. Who's giving him 295 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 4: advice if anything? At the eighty six years old, I 296 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,800 Speaker 4: mean very much isolated. But we don't know or hasn't 297 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 4: been revealed, who's really, you know, kind of running that country. 298 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 4: We would have thought but of in the head of 299 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 4: some of the Republican Guard organizations, but they've been all 300 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 4: killed off. So I'm we're still watching to see specifically 301 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 4: what's going to evolve from this. And I know they're 302 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 4: focusing on the military and the equipment and things, because 303 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 4: if there's a revolution that that's going to cause a 304 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 4: lot of problems. But there's so many unknowns right now 305 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 4: going on. I think it's the beginning of this. If 306 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 4: there's going to be a revolution there, we're at the 307 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 4: very beginning stage of that. 308 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Israelis evidently had some idea of who might 309 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: be in charge, because they had a very carefully targeted list. 310 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: And I was just reading Dove liber has written a 311 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: fantastic account in the Wall Street Journal today about Operation Narnia, 312 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 1: which within it had Operation red Wetting. Anybody familiar with 313 00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: Game of Thrones knows what that refers to, and it 314 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 1: is the choice of paint and the sophistication mike of 315 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 1: that mission, those missions within a greater umbrella mission is 316 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: almost mind boggling. How they simultaneously and in a very 317 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,719 Speaker 1: targetive way, took out a handful of very very important 318 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 1: military leaders, very very important nuclear scientists, while right they 319 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: were bombing the hell out of various critical facilities. It 320 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: boggles the mind. 321 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 4: And it's because they had planned for this eventually. You know, 322 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 4: I still believe this was always coming. At some point, 323 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 4: Israel was going after the Iranian nuclear threat, whether or 324 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 4: not the Housis and has Balah and all those proxy 325 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 4: organizations were at full strength or not. So this is 326 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 4: in the minne of the works for a very long time. 327 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 4: They're just more creative they you know, they just are. 328 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 4: They Decapitation has always been part of their strategy. You 329 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 4: go back to their DNA, go back to wars in 330 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 4: sixty seven seventy three. They clearly go after the leaders 331 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 4: and they believe that that's the way that they have 332 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 4: to win these wars from a country that was what 333 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 4: nine million people versus a country that's got ninety million people. 334 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 4: That's part of the issue. This is the only way 335 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 4: that they could do that. 336 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 1: It really is quite amazing. And meanwhile, as we've discussed, 337 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: our military performed very, very admirably as well. The missions 338 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: that have been pretty well described at this point just 339 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 1: absolutely terrific. What did you make of the and I 340 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: shouldn't prejudice this by using the word idiotic, but what 341 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: do you make of the idiotic go around with CNN 342 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: and elked report and various people leaping on that was 343 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: it yesterday in the day before? 344 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I know. I when I had been on CNN, 345 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 4: I had said that it was likely that it was 346 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 4: very much destroyed. I mean, we're caveling over months and 347 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,399 Speaker 4: you know how long it's been put back. We just 348 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 4: don't know until you get the battle damage assessment. I 349 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 4: think that CNN unfortunately got out a little bit in 350 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 4: front of themselves as well, and then now they're trying 351 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 4: to dig out of it unfortunately in a lot of ways. 352 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 4: But let's the fact that it was Leakes is not good. 353 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 4: Still shows that there are enemies of this administration inside. 354 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,440 Speaker 4: You've been inside the wire basically, and someone Let's hope 355 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 4: that they could figure out who that person is. But again, 356 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 4: a preliminary report two and a half days after the bombing, 357 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: saying it's only been set back two months or it 358 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 4: just doesn't make any sense from the beginning. And that 359 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 4: should have been what CNN concluded when they got that. 360 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 4: They should have said, this is just too crazy and 361 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 4: it's just not something they should go with. 362 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: But unfortunately they were far from alone too. I mean, 363 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: the Washington Post even this morning is taking that report 364 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,440 Speaker 1: seriously in the midst of a report which is just insane. 365 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 1: But because I mean, from your perspective as somebody who's 366 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: actually been involved in at least somewhat similar missions, right, 367 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: you don't expect to have immediate feedback, especially something that 368 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: happened on hundred of feet underground. I mean, it's going 369 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: to take a long time to figure out what is 370 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 1: what at this point. 371 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, And until someone actually goes there and figures 372 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 4: out what, you know, brings equipment, you know, not shovels, 373 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 4: as the second sary of event said, but seismic grafts. 374 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 4: They're gonna have to figure out what's going on underneath 375 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 4: and try to create images of what the situation looks like. 376 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,400 Speaker 4: And it's an enemy territory, so it's still literally months 377 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 4: I think, no question. We can speculate that if those 378 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 4: bombs made it down, and they were designed, like we 379 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 4: talked about, that bomb was designed to do that one 380 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 4: mission fifteen years ago. Again, I just love the creativity 381 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 4: we have now on our side that I'm sure we've 382 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,119 Speaker 4: got other things in the inventory that are specific to 383 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 4: targets that are out there, But that's exactly right. We 384 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 4: won't know until we're out there seeing it, looking on 385 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 4: the ground, looking for seismic equipment to find out specifically 386 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 4: what's going on underneath the earth. 387 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: We're talking to military analyst Mike Lyons, and Mike, we're 388 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: taken next week off, so I wanted to wish you 389 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: a happy Independence Day and just chat a little bit 390 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: about And you can take this any direction you want. 391 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 1: It's pract practically a cliche, but well worth discussing always 392 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: how those who've served and fought and died for this 393 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: country have ensured our freedom. And I'm ambivalent about Trump. 394 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 1: I have some serious complaints about about him. I think 395 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: there are some wonderful things going on, but it is 396 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: absolutely undeniable that the spirit of not only the military, 397 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 1: but the families that are so critical in supporting our 398 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: military folks, their spirits are lifted. 399 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, no question. What he's done, from my perspective as 400 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 4: someone whose son serves in the military, is that he's 401 00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 4: restored to terrence to the United States. It's a very 402 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 4: nineteen eighties moment. I think, just like Lenald Reagan did. 403 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 4: I mean, frankly, we had presidents in our past, the 404 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 4: Republicans and Democrats, that did nothing over the Iranian nuclear issue, 405 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 4: the number one foreign policy failure in my lifetime. And 406 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 4: finally we've now restored that to terrence, that that capability 407 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 4: has gone. So from that alone, I just hope the 408 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 4: rest of the country can kind of catch on a 409 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:12,640 Speaker 4: little bit. I know that, you know, the politics still 410 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 4: what they are, The rhetoric still is very overheated. And 411 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 4: I saw Democratic senators come out of their d and 412 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 4: I brief yesterday and this one guy Murphy said, still, 413 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 4: you know, it still only been set back a couple 414 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 4: of months. I'm just shaking my head that we really 415 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 4: want to go there. So so again, these are the 416 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 4: kind of holidays where we celebrate our country, we celebrate 417 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 4: our freedoms separate aside from being in the military or 418 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 4: not and what you do. But you know, we've got 419 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 4: two hundred and forty nine years. Next year will be 420 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 4: will be two fifty, and I think that's going to 421 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 4: be a great big birthday for us as well. 422 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's astounding to me that. I mean, for instance, 423 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 1: you've got this zoron Mumdani crack Pot, who may well 424 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: be the next mayor of New York, trying to run 425 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,199 Speaker 1: such ideas as rent control of the flag pole. I mean, 426 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,680 Speaker 1: there could be no more discredited idea in the world 427 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: of than that. I mean, it's it's absurd anybody would 428 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: suggest it with a straight face. And on the military 429 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: national security side of things, it's a little frustrating to 430 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: me anyway that at this point you still have to 431 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: make the argument that the stronger we are, the more 432 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: likely there is peace and a deterrent establishing deterrence, like 433 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: you say, that's the way to protect our men and 434 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 1: women in uniform right. 435 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 4: And the argument the counter argument where some will say, well, 436 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 4: you know, mike does not equal right, and I'm like, no, yeah, 437 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 4: maybe it doesn't, but it equals to terrence. If no 438 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 4: one will do something because they are afraid that we 439 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 4: actually will respond, I think that's what that's what makes 440 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 4: it all about. And that's why we have the military 441 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: we have. Again, nobody could have done that mission in 442 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 4: the world. That that mission sent signals to the Chinese, 443 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 4: to the Russians, to everybody out there. And that level 444 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 4: of deterrence now I think has been restored. And that's 445 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 4: what this president has done. And there's no everything's about 446 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 4: recruiting's up. I think people should should be feeling the 447 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 4: way we felt again back in the ages. I keep 448 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 4: bringing back to the wax nostalgia for those times because 449 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,959 Speaker 4: I thought that was the time when America was at 450 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 4: a low point and then we had a president that 451 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 4: brought us right back. 452 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: Let's hope those lessons stay learned. My client's always a pleasure. 453 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: Thanks a million for the time, Mike, good to talk to you. 454 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 4: Thanks ye Joe, have great holiday. 455 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: Thank you you too. So on the way, We've got 456 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: a fabulous freedom loving quote of the day. Continuing on 457 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 1: our series with Clarence Thomas, also mail Bag among other fairs. 458 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 1: Stay with us. 459 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 3: So that the Trump administration wants to allow home buyers 460 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 3: to get a mortgage using crypto. Yeah, be fun to 461 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 3: see the Zillow's estimates say that your house is worth 462 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,200 Speaker 3: one billion iguana coins. 463 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: That's kind of funny.

Which 469 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 1: can you imagine would I be in a time machine 470 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: in this scenario or as somebody else anyway? Can you 471 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: imagine me speaking those sentences? Say, just like ten years ago, 472 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago, people would be like, what are you 473 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 1: talking about?

Mail bag at Armstrong and Getty dot com. 496 00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: Darren who the other day suggested a new a g 497 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: T shirt idea lock up Criminals, not my toothpaste, which 498 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 1: we like very much as a new one. Globalize the 499 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 1: empanadas instead of Intofada. You like it. Globalize it with 500 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: a picture of an empanada. Yeah, the delicious, delicious treat 501 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 1: all right, Darren, I like it. Let's see this from Paul, 502 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: the topic of NATO, what does NATO do with the 503 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: money they get? I never hear anything about it. That's 504 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: actually kind of a misconception, Paul. I mean, they certainly 505 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: do have a budget to run operations at NATO headquarters 506 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 1: and that sort of thing. But what Trump is pressuring 507 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: the NATO members to do is to bring something to 508 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: the party, specifically to bring two percent, then four percent, 509 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 1: now maybe five percent I hope of their GDP to 510 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: the party in military spending and military preparedness. For a 511 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: very long time, and this is what chapped Trump sars 512 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: so much. For a very long time, the United States 513 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: would show up to the party and say, hey, here's 514 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: a dozen ribbi and half a case of really expensive 515 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: Napa wine for our party. And Britain would say I 516 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: got half a bag of chips, and France would say 517 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 1: I got a water bottle, and you know the rest 518 00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: of the countries would say, yeah, I'll help clean up after. 519 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: And that's no good. That's still good. It might have 520 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: been fine in nineteen forty seven. I get that. And 521 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: there's a parallel with our trade relationship too. National Review 522 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: with a great piece today griping about our trade relationship 523 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: with Europe, which is still I mean, it's evolved somewhat, 524 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: but it still has shades of you're devastated by the war. 525 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 1: You're pretty much helpless, so you can treat the United 526 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: States like crap in terms of trade, and will be 527 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: super nice to you because you're kind of our little brother. 528 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: You're our tiny, tim little brother leaning on a crutch. 529 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: But it's not true anymore. And Trump's right, we have 530 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: been getting ripped off. But anyway, all those things are changing. 531 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: Paul with a theory about the low number of heart 532 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 1: attacks these days. Could there be a direct relationship to 533 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 1: processed and fast foods with laughing emojis? Yeah, wouldn't that 534 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 1: be something? Turns out, Yeah, preservatives and culture process foods 535 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: prevent heart attacks. No, I think it's probably Statin's and 536 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: blood pressure medication, that sort of thing. Honestly, But with 537 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 1: the shocking rise in obesity in the country, the fact 538 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: that the heart attack rate is down ninety percent, is 539 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: that what Jack brought us yesterday, Katie, ninety percent? I mean, 540 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: that's miraculous. Crazy note from Rebecca here Gay Here she 541 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: writes the T does not belong with the L or 542 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: the G. They no pronoun respect intended. Need to get 543 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: to their end of the alphabet and leave us alone. 544 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: Love you guys in a totally platonic way, because that's 545 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: how same sex attraction works. It's biological. Follow the science, 546 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 1: like the left oldest during COVID. Uh. That's a good point. 547 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: Happy Friday to you two. Rebecca, totally down with teamh 548 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: G and Team AL Team B. You asked too much 549 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 1: out of life. But yeah, that's totally that's for great 550 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: And I want to get back if we were It's 551 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: an action packed show today if we have time. I 552 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: want to get back to the Andrew Sullivan piece that 553 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: The New York Times published. He's a conservative gay man 554 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: and and his point is the gay rights movement turned 555 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: totally radical and went after children, and and that's when 556 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: it turned awful and unsupportable. And andrews one hundred percent right. Uh. 557 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: Speaking of which, Tom and Norcale writes, Hey, guys, let's 558 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: make a deal with the lgbt Q, l M n 559 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: O P community. We'll give the thumbs up to trans 560 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: women being allowed in female only spaces, locker rooms, restrooms, 561 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: et cetera. If they're okay with trans men who are 562 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: women who break the law. Being locked up in male 563 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: only prisons. If they're true adherence to the ideology, they 564 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: would be four. Otherwise their hypocrites. Sounds fair. Keep up 565 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: the good work. Here's the problem, Tom, in a lot 566 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: of you probably miss this. You really ought to listen 567 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 1: to every show. But there was an unbelievably interesting study 568 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: done about you know, men and women and how they 569 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: offend and what crimes they offend and they break in 570 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 1: or what crimes they do and that sort of thing. 571 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty well traveled ground. But they looked 572 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: at transgender folks as well, and dudes pretending to be 573 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: women the whole trans women, it's too confusing. Dudes pretending 574 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 1: to be women offended just like men, same crimes in 575 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: the same ways, but worse because there was a hell 576 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 1: of a lot of sexual assault because you've got somebody 577 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: who is and this is undeniable, sexually confused. And the 578 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: women claiming to be dudes offended just like women. They 579 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 1: did women's stuff in women ways they're not. They didn't, 580 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 1: you know, get a few hormone shows and grow wispy mustache, 581 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: then start doing strong arm robberies and knocking over liquor 582 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 1: stores with machetes. No, they kept acting like women anyway. 583 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: Note from Seawan here. Oh you know what, this is 584 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,279 Speaker 1: really interesting. How much time do we have, Michael, Yeah, 585 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 1: we don't have time for this. We'll get to Shawn's 586 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: fascinating email next hour. Talking to Kevin Kyleie, congressman from California, 587 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: next hour about actually some similar stuff to what we 588 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: discussed in mail bag.
