It also 9 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: must be nice to be a federal worker in DC 10 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 1: where you go on trial, because you can be sure 11 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: your Washington neighbors on the jury will always be on 12 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: your side.

Joining us right now 45 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: is independent investigative journalist Walter Kurt Walter, you and I 46 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: we tried before I get to your specific marching orders, 47 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: because you wrote a really good piece about what Republicans 48 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: need to do next, but before I get to that, 49 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: just how you doing, because the two of us were 50 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: working really hard first to get the American public to 51 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: pay attention to specifically the Virginia election, but also some 52 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 1: of the ones in New Jersey and some other places. 53 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: You know, are you in boldened to continue or are 54 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: you a little bit beat up after what happened? 55 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 3: Well, you know, Jake, obviously, we worked really hard on 56 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 3: this race and we tried to get people to pay 57 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: attention to it. But I'll tell you right now, I'm not, 58 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 3: and I wouldn't say I'm upset about it. I would 59 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: say that I'm pretty angry about it, to be honest 60 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,799 Speaker 3: with you, because Jakeie, you know just as well as 61 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 3: I do, that you don't lose a race by double 62 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 3: digits like that unless that it was a poorly managed 63 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 3: Every aspect of that campaign was poorly managed and there's 64 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 3: no way that that was done correctly. That means that 65 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: the party itself really really dropped the ball, and that 66 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: they didn't run a ground game. They didn't do things properly, 67 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 3: they didn't canvas properly. To me, it tells me that 68 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: this was not done correctly at all, and that the 69 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 3: Democrats the reason, the only reason they brought in Obama 70 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 3: because we were talking about this, we were saying, well, 71 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 3: why is Obama there? What's he here there for? 72 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: He's there for. 73 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 3: The reason he was there is because they wanted to 74 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: get Jay Jones over it. That's why he was there. 75 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 3: Because they, oh, no, that they might lose the AG race, 76 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 3: so they brought in the whole team. The whole Democrat 77 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 3: party showed up. Man, it was It's obvious to me 78 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: that the campaigns run in Virginia were not done properly 79 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 3: and that this was a huge blowout because we decided 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 3: we didn't think it was that important apparently, and that's 81 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 3: crazy to me. 82 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's talk about what we do about it. 83 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: You have a piece out on your own sub stack 84 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: titled Republicans need to Wake Up because again I introduced 85 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: you correctly as an independent investigator, journalist, but you're also 86 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: the guy behind the WC dispatch. So what do they 87 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: need to wake up and do right now, Walter too 88 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: to make sure that things like Tuesday don't happen again, 89 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: especially next year. Well, the biggest thing they have to 90 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: do is that we need to understand that a ground 91 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: game is necessary. And this I've been talking about this 92 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,239 Speaker 1: the past couple of days. Now that a ground game, 93 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: I mean, if we don't wake up and smell the 94 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: roses and realize that the Democrats, when they actually have 95 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: these big, giant rallies, that's how they're getting their base 96 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: riled up. You know, I'm not expecting Republicans to be 97 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: able to have the same match, the same kind of 98 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: energy where they've got, you know, a bazillion people out 99 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: in the streets. 100 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 3: I'm not expecting that. That's not what I'm expecting, But 101 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 3: we need to do something. I mean, I've you know, 102 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 3: my entire life around Republican politics. I can't think of 103 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 3: other than Donald Trump. I cannot think of a single 104 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 3: person that has actually managed to do large scale rallies 105 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: like he did, where there was lots of people, where 106 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 3: there's community style events, where there's tons of people that 107 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: show up and they can register voters, and they can 108 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 3: get people excited about it. Other than Donald Trump, no 109 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 3: one's does that. And if we can't win without Donald 110 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 3: trumple in the ticket, we are screwed. 111 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Walter, I don't want to fall into the trap 112 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: of infighting because there's a lot of people pointing fingers 113 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: about who's talking about what. But you know, when it 114 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 1: comes to this Tucker Carlson situation going on right now, 115 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: this isn't rocket science. I mean, can we please stop 116 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: thinking about who's doing the criticizing of Tucker Carlson just 117 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: for a second, let's just pretend I'm using a generic 118 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: name here. Interviewing a guy who says Hitler was a 119 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: cool guy. Interview people who think that the United States 120 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,599 Speaker 1: should not have should have joined in with Hitler in 121 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: World War Two is not helpful. You don't want that 122 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: person on your team. Can we just stop trying to 123 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: be too smart for ourselves and tie ourselves into preszels? 124 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: We know this isn't right. And as I've said here 125 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: on the program, and I mean this seriously, and I'm 126 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: not saying this to demonize mental illness. I've just seen 127 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: it so many times in my life. The man is 128 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: going through a mental breakdown. I don't know if he 129 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: has friends or family members who care about him, but 130 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: they should. And he absolutely is toxic right now for 131 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: the Republican Party. And you were talking about how this 132 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 1: just doesn't make any sense for us to be wanting 133 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: to align with somebody like this while we're involved in 134 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,119 Speaker 1: these important elections. 135 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 3: So the big thing that I've been telling everybody, and 136 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 3: you know, Tucker, well, I don't paying attention to these 137 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 3: people anymore. But I'll tell you one thing that pissed 138 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: me off about this. Why Why did Tucker Carlson interview 139 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 3: Nick Fuentes knowing the reaction that it would get. Of 140 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 3: course he knew the reaction. He's not stupid. He knew 141 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 3: what the reaction was going to be. Why did you 142 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 3: do it in one week for the biggest elections? So 143 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 3: we have all these big elections. 144 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: I mean it. You know you knew what the reaction 145 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: would be. You knew what would happen. It was one 146 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: week ago. 147 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: You know, if you, if you, even if you don't, 148 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 3: could want to criticize Tucker. 149 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: Someone explained that to me. 150 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 3: Why'd you drop the interview one week for the big 151 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: election before we had big elections, So the entire right 152 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 3: wing started fighting with itself right before we go into this, 153 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 3: like there was no one talking about the elections. 154 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: You know. 155 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 3: I remember I put a post out and I was 156 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: talking about this on This is the Wind. The Monday 157 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 3: before the election, I had been out nineteen hours trying 158 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 3: to get the vote out in Virginia. I was down everywhere. 159 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: And I come back and what does peple, What are 160 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 3: people talking about online? Absolutely nothing? You know, they're not 161 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 3: talking about anything to do with the elections. They're not 162 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 3: talking about anything to do with getting the vote out. 163 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: They're screaming about Kevin Roberts, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentez. 164 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 3: And I was like, my goodness, people, we are hopeless. 165 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 3: We are not going to win if this is all 166 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 3: we're going to talk about. And you know, the problem 167 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 3: being the reaction, both the reaction and the p and 168 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 3: the fact that he released interview in the first place. 169 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 3: You know, we could have waited a week. Couldn't you 170 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: waited seven business days to release your interview. You had 171 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 3: to do it right then. Amazing to me, I mean 172 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 3: it drives me in saying that this is a major 173 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 3: talking point for people we need to get away from 174 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:14,119 Speaker 3: this stuff. 175 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's not a well man. And for those of 176 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: you who want to see a prototype for him, look 177 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: up the name Ezra Pound, who was a very talented 178 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: poet many many, many decades ago. He ended up in St. 179 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: Elizabeths Mental institution. And I honestly think this is not 180 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: a well man. And if there are people out there 181 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: who really care about him and love him, they'll get 182 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: him some help. I don't know who they're going to 183 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,719 Speaker 1: get him for him, because a lot of the psychiatrists 184 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: and psychologists out there are pretty sick these days. They 185 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,079 Speaker 1: all have Trump derangement syndrome, the ones I've met. But 186 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: someone's got to help this guy because he's not all there. 187 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: All right. I got to get your take on the 188 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: House Republicans, Walter again. One of the election results on 189 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: Tuesday night was Zoron Mamdani winning the mayor's election in 190 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: New York City. And the House Republicans are doing what 191 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: I think people who are opposed to this mad man 192 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,599 Speaker 1: another man man is Zaraon Mamdani. I don't think that 193 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: it would be out of bounds. I don't care what 194 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: the New York Times is going to say about it 195 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: or NPR. I absolutely think there should be an effort 196 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: to indict and deport him, even if it doesn't end 197 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,719 Speaker 1: up working in the end. I think it's important for 198 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 1: everyone to understand the crimes he's committed, the people he's 199 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 1: associated with, and I'm all in favor of it. Am 200 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: I crazy speaking of mentalist? Am I crazy Walter for 201 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 1: really urging people to push for this just to get 202 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: the ball rolling in the right direction against what this 203 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: guy would do to America's largest city. 204 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,959 Speaker 3: Uh No, I don't think so. I think we should 205 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 3: apport all of these people, every single one of these 206 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: people that act like this. I mean, he's a communist, 207 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 3: he's in Islamist. He knew during his opening speech, his 208 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 3: victory speech, he thanked every country except America for the victory. 209 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 3: You know, he didn't thank America at all. He didn't 210 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 3: stand up for and say, you know, for all of 211 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 3: the Americans that to help support me and whatnot. No, no, no, 212 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 3: he said, the senegales the Nepalese cab drivers, the you know, 213 00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 3: the Afghani. 214 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 4: Know. 215 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 3: Falafel stands like, I mean, that's who he sees his constituency, 216 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 3: not Americans. So you know, I don't think I don't 217 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 3: care about this guy at all. I think they should 218 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: find any way they can to deport him. You know, then, 219 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 3: and we need to stop pretending as if we need 220 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 3: to be nice about this sort of stuff. This guy, 221 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 3: if he came here on legal immigration problems, if he 222 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 3: came here illegally, he showed up on his citizenship was 223 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 3: given to him on false terms. Get him out of here. 224 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 3: I don't care what he is, I don't care what 225 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: position he is. May or not fire him, get him 226 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 3: out hey. 227 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: And there's a little bit of a precedent for this again. 228 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,599 Speaker 1: Another person you can look up James Traffickant, who was 229 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: an Ohio congressman. He spent some of his time in 230 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: Congress at the end in jail. I don't know if 231 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: his two pay was put in another cell. That was 232 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: another one of his crimes. He of the worst two 233 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: pay in DC, which is saying something. But look, folks, 234 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: I mean all joking aside. We've elected someone who associates 235 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 1: with terrorists. They were also at his victory party. We 236 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 1: have elected someone who lied on his citizenship application, lected 237 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: someone who accepted foreign donations, which is illegal. I don't 238 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: know how many times. I don't know how much more 239 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 1: simple we need to get with this. Foreign countries and 240 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: foreign citizens are not allowed to donate directly or actually 241 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: and in any other way to an American campaign. 242 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 5: Do they do it? 243 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: Have they been doing it for a while? 244 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: Yes? 245 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: But actually it's a relatively new thing because for so 246 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: many decades during our after the election laws were passed, 247 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: after our campaign finance laws were passed, most of the 248 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,559 Speaker 1: enemies of the United States didn't have much of a 249 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: cash flow. But because of Iranian money, because of Chinese 250 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: money and the rise of those economies, either from oil 251 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: like the Iranians have or China with all the economic 252 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 1: boom that they've been enjoying, they finally found a way 253 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: to just get around all this. Enough money will get 254 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 1: you around anything at the end of the day, Walter, 255 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: I know you were talking about enthusiasm and ground game, 256 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, is freedom in 257 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: America just being outspent by our enemies? I wonder if 258 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 1: that's really just the simple answer, it's about money at 259 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: the end of the day. 260 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 3: Well, that is true. The amount of money that was 261 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 3: in the like specifically going to the Virginia race because 262 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 3: that's where my focus was. The Virginia race was obviously 263 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: outspent on a massive scale compared to Winso series. Winsom 264 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 3: series ended up having about thirty four million dollars. Abigail 265 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 3: Spanberger spent about eighty million dollars. I mean, money is 266 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 3: the lifeblood of politics. You have to be able to spend. 267 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 3: But you know, someone was trying to argue to me 268 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 3: that maybe this is the final push from the USAID money, 269 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 3: that they're not going to have any left after this, 270 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 3: and it's like, I don't know, their billionaires seem to 271 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: be willing to funde all sorts of stuff, so I'm 272 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 3: not entirely sure. What if this is the last gas 273 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 3: but this is all they've got left. 274 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,719 Speaker 1: But I don't think so. 275 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 3: And someone anybody who doesn't think that the problem here 276 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 3: is really our turnout number here, because that's what you 277 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,599 Speaker 3: really have to look at. I mean, I've got the 278 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 3: numbers pulled on the Southern Virginia, you know counties, the 279 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 3: Southern Virginia counties where we had a forty to fifty 280 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 3: percent turnout drip up. That's why we lost. You know, 281 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 3: you can't argue that there's no in there's people saying 282 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 3: I see some people talking about always it fraud, Like, no, guys, 283 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 3: they didn't show up for Trump because Trump wasn't on 284 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 3: the ballot, and you did message to them, so you don't. 285 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 3: If you don't figure out how to fix that problem, 286 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: we're not gonna win again. And that's why I say 287 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 3: we need to have a ground game. We need to 288 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 3: get a ground game up and running with the next 289 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 3: six months needs to be there. 290 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: And like I said, we tried our best. When did 291 00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: we start talking about that election May June? I mean 292 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: a lot of those people who didn't show up probably 293 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: didn't even know about it, and that not through no 294 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 1: fault of our own. We tried our best. Walter, Kurt, 295 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: thanks for joining us. Have a RESTful weekend. This is 296 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,719 Speaker 1: probably your first RESTful weekend coming up in a long time. 297 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Thank you. 298 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 3: That's right, Thanks Jake, thanks for having me on all right. 299 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: Also coming up, there's one Wall Street firm that's telling 300 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: its workers to stay home today, and no, it's not 301 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: to get a jump on the Veterans Day sales. I 302 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: will explain. Also, some Chinese astronauts are stranded on their 303 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: space station right now. Should the Trump team offered a help, 304 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: but for a price. Let's waste some options about what 305 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: we can ask from them. American Sunrise Early Edition will 306 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: be right about river running free. 307 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 6: You know, Harpey. 308 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: Blossom. Good morning, that's Lady Liberty. I think we are 309 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: looking at Lady Liberty from this vantage point of Bayonne, 310 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: New Jersey. Fayone is my city of hard knocks, folks. 311 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: One day, I'll tell you the story. But anyway, beautiful, 312 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: beautiful statute Liberty shot this morning. At least we have 313 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: beautiful mornings here in New York, even though we have 314 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: terrible leadership. Welcome back to American Sunrise Early Edition. It's 315 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: a no Tai Friday special. Welcome to those of you 316 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: already up and commenting on the Getter chat or rumble 317 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: chats X and substack all those places. Hey, speaking of 318 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: New York. Apollo Capital Management, that's one of those fancy 319 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: private equity firms in New York. They don't need to 320 00:14:58,600 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: if you work there, you don't need to go to 321 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 1: work to that's because there's going to be a massive protest. 322 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 1: They're angry. The protesters are because the CEO of Apollo, 323 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: his name is Mark Rowan, has publicly supported President Trump's 324 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: clampdown on woke politics at university campuses. Hey, Emily Finn, 325 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: this is probably going to be I think par for 326 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: the course in mom Donnie's New York. It reminds me 327 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: of Occupy Wall Street. You better believe he'll probably be 328 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 1: joining the protests. I wouldn't be surprised if he shows up. 329 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 4: I wouldn't be surprised either. You know, it's really not 330 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 4: a good sign that right after you get elected, you're 331 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 4: empowering the crazies in your city to rise up in protest. 332 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 5: I have. 333 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 4: I'm very concerned for New York moving forward. I don't 334 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 4: think that this is a good sign. And let's also 335 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 4: remember that this is not the people protesting mom Donnie 336 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 4: protesting the literal communism that is coming to that city. 337 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 4: It's people that are still protesting President Trump. It's absolute insanity. 338 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 7: Jake. 339 00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, the good news is I was open in avocado 340 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: toast stand right outside that protest. Because all those kids, 341 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: who are basically probably paid protesters, have never had like 342 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: an actual real breakfast. I don't think they're going for 343 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: the sausage, egg and cheese sandwich. So let's make some 344 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: money on that all right. Now, speaking of making money 345 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: and taking advantage of a situation. Emily, this is an 346 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: interesting thing that developed yesterday. There's some Chinese astronauts who 347 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: are now stranded on their Chinese space station because a 348 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: bunch of space debris damage their return capsule home. I've 349 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: got an idea, I think it. First of all, I 350 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 1: think President Trump should comment about this immediately, just basically 351 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: say our hearts, you know, our prayers are with them, 352 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: we want to help them. Do they want us to 353 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: go pick them up? Do they need a lift? I 354 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: think that this is something we should take political advantage 355 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: of and offer them a free ride home, maybe in 356 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: return for all the stolen technology on that space station. 357 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: It's all our technology that they steal. They don't innovate 358 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: in China. They just steal. They work very hard, but 359 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: they don't innovate. Maybe we can ask them while we're there, 360 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: can you give us all the stuff you ripped us 361 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: off up from? I mean something like that. 362 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 4: What do you think, Jake, I think that's a fantastic idea. 363 00:16:57,480 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 4: I think I'm going to nominate you to be the 364 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: head of Space Force at this point, because seriously, space 365 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 4: is the one thing that we should all on Earth 366 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 4: be unified over we have no idea what's out there, 367 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 4: and if these astronauts are having a hard time getting home. Yes, 368 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 4: I think that's a fantastic idea to try to help out, 369 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 4: and it could bring some some peace and bring some 370 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 4: ties between the US and China as well. Space exploration 371 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,160 Speaker 4: is something that is going to be the future. Elon 372 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 4: Musk has been very vocal about this as well. So 373 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 4: I think that unity on Earth is definitely needed. 374 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think. But I wonder if Shijingping is getting 375 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 1: on the phone with the astronauts and saying, don't take 376 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: any rhymester strangers. And if someone says that I told 377 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: you to go pick you up. We have a family 378 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: safe word, you know. It's contrast. 379 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 6: Absolutely, don't don't. 380 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: Get into cars with strangers, guys, that's what's going on, 381 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: all right, Emily. 382 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 4: Don't get into spacecrafts. 383 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: That's right. Don't go into cars with boys, all right. Anyway, 384 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: that's the cool thing there. Thank you so much, Emily. 385 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: We'll see you in the next hour in American sunrise, 386 00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: and I'm going to give you a preemptive good weekend. 387 00:17:59,040 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 1: Thank you. Thank you. 388 00:17:59,760 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 6: Jake. 389 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 1: All right, let me be blunt. Don't get into spacecrafts 390 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: with strangers. Now, let me also be blunt about gold. 391 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 1: Gold is up around forty percent this year. That's not speculation, 392 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: that's reality. And if a portion of your savings isn't 393 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,959 Speaker 1: diversified into gold, you're missing the boat. Here are the facts. 394 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: Inflation is still too high, the US dollar is still 395 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: too weak, and the government debt is insurmountable. This is 396 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: why central banks are flocking to gold. They're the ones 397 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 1: driving prices up to record eyes. But it's not too 398 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: late to buy gold from Birch Gold Group and get 399 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: in the door now.

That one trillion dollar 413 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: pay package has been approved. I'll have that story and 414 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 1: the rest of moving in America when American Sunrise Early 415 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: Edition comes right back. It's a live look at bar Harbor, Maine. 416 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: Here an American Sunrise Early Edition. I used to live 417 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: in Maine. It's beautiful there. I lived there in nineteen 418 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 1: ninety four and ninety five, and I have to say 419 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: it took me about six weeks to undert say what 420 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: the heck the people were saying there. When I say 421 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: Bar Harbor, I should say Baha Bah. I mean the 422 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: New England accent up there is really really thick. But 423 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: eventually I was able to understand what they said. I 424 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: could have used Google Translate better than but Google didn't exist. 425 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a look at the markets right now, 426 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: because we've got both there we go. We have a 427 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 1: slightly lower open we had to sell off yesterday. By 428 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 1: the way, there is going to be a very concerted effort. 429 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 1: It's already starting by the mainstream media and their Democrat 430 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: allies to talk down the economy, and they're going to 431 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: be pointing to the stock market losses of the last 432 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: couple of days as evidence of that. That's not the case. 433 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 1: What's going on in the markets right now is buyer's 434 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: remorse about all the AI spending. This happened in April. 435 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 1: This is the reason why the markets went down in April. 436 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: And I don't know if it will be another buying 437 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: opportunity like it was then, but if you bought it 438 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: those loads in April, you made a ton of cash. 439 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: This is about AI. It's not about the other economic 440 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: challenges in our economy. We do have them. I'm not 441 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: saying the economy is perfect. Anyone who says it's perfect 442 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: or all terrible is a liar or a dope. But 443 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: this markets sell off this last couple of days, and 444 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 1: it's not really even to sell off. It's just a 445 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 1: slight A couple of days of a downward trend is 446 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: because of AI and AI buyers remorse. Just remember that 447 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: when you see that all over the news the next 448 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: few days about how the economy is tanking, it's not true, 449 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,119 Speaker 1: all right. Joining us now is Artillery T company co 450 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: founder Mike Britton.

If you tune out when I 454 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: talk about Artillery T every day, this is your come 455 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: up and so we're gonna get you all up to date. Mike, 456 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: why should someone choose Artillery T over any other t? 457 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: Get these people who've been watching my show and have 458 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: him been listening into the right frame of mind, please? 459 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 5: Yeah, thanks, Jake. So our product is different in a 460 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 5: few ways. First of all, the stuff you get the 461 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 5: store is made of something called t dust. It is 462 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,119 Speaker 5: literally the worst grade of tea you can get. They 463 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 5: take the leaves, they process them into black or green tea, 464 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 5: and then they they put them through kind of more 465 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 5: of a conveyor belt system. Literally, the stuff that falls 466 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 5: through the cracks, the little dust particles that falls through 467 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 5: the cracks, is what they sweep up and put into 468 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 5: the tea bags in the grocery store. The other thing 469 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 5: they do is they use tea bags that are made 470 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 5: out of bleach paper, something called eh which is a 471 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 5: chemical used in insect fumigation as well, and they use glue, 472 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 5: lots of plastic. Billions of micro microplastics get into your 473 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:31,160 Speaker 5: drink when you drink grocery store tea. Ours is different. 474 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 5: Ours is the whole leaf, so we don't do the 475 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 5: dust at all. 476 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 4: We do. 477 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 5: We do the whole leaves that are you know, fresh, 478 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 5: freshly picked, freshly processed into green tea or black tea, 479 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 5: which is just a process of oxidation. And then our 480 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 5: tea bags are also completely chemical free, so they're made 481 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 5: out of a cornstarch material and they're all plant based 482 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 5: on biodegradable so we don't use any glue or bleach 483 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 5: or plastic or any of that nasty stuff. 484 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: Mike, I have this. 485 00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 5: You know. 486 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: There was a sketch on s now about thirty five 487 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 1: years ago, maybe longer, where a man dies and Saint 488 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: Peter explains that he answers all of his questions, and 489 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: one of the questions is what's the most disgusting thing 490 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 1: I ever ate or drank? And Saint Peter says, I can't, 491 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: even though you're dead, I can't even tell you. So 492 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 1: I think he just gave I think he just gave 493 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 1: some of the like, oh my god, I don't even 494 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: want to know, all right, that's what it is. Yeah, 495 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: that might be that it might have been what it was. 496 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: He also asks, you know, who were some of the 497 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: people who secretly liked me in my class, and like 498 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: Saint Peter mentions a couple of girls and he's like, oh, oh, well, anyway, 499 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 1: what are you hoping to accomplish this year with assisting 500 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 1: veterans in your act, because I know that's a big 501 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: part of your business. 502 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 503 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 5: Another thing that sets us apart from regular tea companies, Jake, 504 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 5: is that we partner with veteran and first responder nonprofits. 505 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 5: This year, we're partnering with a group called Working Dogs 506 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 5: for Vets. They provide service animals to disabled veterans, and 507 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 5: there's a lot of costs that goes into the training, 508 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 5: the sourcing of the dogs, and then and the training 509 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 5: of the animals. And we're hoping to spawn a whole 510 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 5: animal this year, which would be like from acquiring it 511 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 5: all the way through final training and delivery to a veteran. 512 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,680 Speaker 5: And so we're looking like we're on track to do 513 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 5: that by the end of the year. And so we're 514 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 5: excited to do that and excited to do more too. 515 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 1: Are you going to be following that whole like training 516 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: process and maybe getting some pictures with I mean, I 517 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,640 Speaker 1: think it'd be like great. I hope you know, because 518 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 1: I want to show that video or the pictures you 519 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: get of that whole process. 520 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, for sure. That that was part of like what 521 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 5: we talked about with them, is that the dog that 522 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 5: we sponsor, we're gonna get pictures of it. We're gonna 523 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 5: know who it goes to and what that person's background 524 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 5: is and what the background of the dog is too. 525 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 5: So looking forward to sharing that with the show. 526 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: All right. So you know, I'm always into trying to 527 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: save my viewers money. Is there anything new and any 528 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: new promotions coming up for Artillery Tea? 529 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, so gift giving season is coming up. So something 530 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 5: that we launched is called the Precision Brewing Starter Kit. 531 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 5: Something unique about doing whole Leaf tea is that it 532 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:57,439 Speaker 5: brews a little bit differently, and that especially differently than coffee. 533 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 5: So green tea brews at like a different temperature than 534 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 5: black te and the steeping times are different and that 535 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 5: sort of thing. So we put together this kit that'll 536 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 5: give you a thermometer and brewing instructions and especially how 537 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 5: to get two cups of tea out of one tea bag. 538 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 5: So since we use the whole leaves, the leaves will 539 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 5: go further than the tea dust well, and so we 540 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 5: got a whole kit that'll give you the guide. It's 541 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 5: kind of like the whole everything you need to get 542 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 5: started brewing right away. We did put that together for 543 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 5: gift giving season as well. And then just last night, Jake, 544 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 5: we launched a new subscriptions program called the Patriots Brew Club. 545 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 5: And so before we just offer subscribe and save ten 546 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 5: percent on your order, and now we're doing the Patriots 547 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 5: Brew Club, which will be free shipping on all orders. 548 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 5: We're gonna have milestone rewards, free rewards as you go 549 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 5: from you know, custom stickers to free mugs, to free 550 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 5: t shirts and all sorts of things like that, and 551 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 5: then also tiered discounts if you add more than one item, 552 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 5: you get you know, ten percent off, fifteen percent off, 553 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 5: twenty percent off. So we're doing the whole We've revamped 554 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 5: our whole subscriptions program. We think it's a much better setup. 555 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: All right, Mike Britton, that sounds really exciting. It's definitely 556 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: a great gift idea. You can call it Christmas season. 557 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: It started. I already heard them. Even my gym is 558 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 1: playing Christmas music now, so I think it's totally okay 559 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: to say that. Mike Britten from Artillerytea dotco dot com 560 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: slash rabs where you can get all the other information, 561 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. 562 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 5: Have a great weekend, Thanks Jake. 563 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 1: Okay, ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. Hey moving America, 564 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:38,720 Speaker 1: which coincidentally is sponsored by Artillery Tea Company. Again, thank 565 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: you so much for doing that every morning. Well, I 566 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,400 Speaker 1: was wrong. Elon Musk did get his one trillion dollar 567 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: pay package approved, and it wasn't really close. I was 568 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 1: getting a little bit worried about it. I didn't completely 569 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: predict he wouldn't get it, But after that Norwegian Sovereign 570 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: Wealth Fund said no, I thought to myself, oh oh, 571 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: people are going to start piggybacking on this. According to Tesla, 572 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: seventy five percent of the shareholders voting yes on giving 573 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,400 Speaker 1: him that one trillion dollar pay package. As I've said 574 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: on this program a number of times before, Elon Musk 575 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: has made a lot more than trillion dollars for Tesla 576 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 1: shareholders over the years, especially over the last ten years 577 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: or so, you could make the argument he deserves every 578 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: single penny. I know that Tesla's board really wanted him 579 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: to get this because they were worried he would leave. 580 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: Tesla's making a comeback. They're trying to make a comeback 581 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: from all that political fire that they took last year 582 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,199 Speaker 1: and going into this year. Let's see if that happens. 583 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: But not all CEOs have it made in America, even 584 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 1: in the auto industry. CarMax fired at CEO yesterday. Now 585 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: that's a used car retailer, as you know, online and 586 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,920 Speaker 1: in some other places. They announced a weaker outlook for 587 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,640 Speaker 1: the current Christmas season quarter. They're not looking at good 588 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: numbers so far for these last few months of the year. 589 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: So they officially said their CEO, Bill Nash, was stepping down. 590 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 1: But you know, he's fired. That's what everyone in the 591 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: auto industry knows. He's been fired. It's a tough world 592 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 1: out there for used cars, and CarMax is not cutting it. 593 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: Here's a surprise. That's not a surprise. It's not a 594 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: surprise at all, especially even watching this program. Ford is 595 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: reportedly considering pulling the plug entirely on the all electric 596 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 1: Ford Q fifty lightning truck. Ford has racked up, get this, 597 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: thirteen billion dollars in losses on evs since twenty twenty three. Again, 598 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: evs do have a place even in the American marketplace. 599 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: I say, at the most it's a ten percent market share, 600 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 1: which isn't bad. That's a pretty big change from years 601 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: ago when it was zero percent. But I don't think 602 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: that evs have a place in the world of big 603 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: SUVs and trucks, especially of the Ford F one fifty. 604 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,719 Speaker 1: This was something that Ford did to plicate the swamp, 605 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: to plicate the Biden administration, to show them that they're 606 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: really forward thinking, and they've taken a bath on it, 607 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: and now they might kill it. I think they will. 608 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: That's a report in the Wall Street Journal saying that 609 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: that is what they're talking about in Dearborn these days. Okay, 610 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: now for a horror movie preview from Britain. It's not 611 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: a real horror movie, but it's worse than that. It's reality. 612 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: Speaking of evs, the UK's labor government is looking at 613 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: the equivalent of what would be a four cent per 614 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: mile tax on your evs. If you're an EV owner, 615 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: they're gonna look at your odometer and charge you three pence, 616 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: which is four cents American money for every mile. For 617 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: the average driver in Great Britain, this would be about 618 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: another three hundred and twenty dollars a year that they 619 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: have to pay in taxes. This is because evs don't 620 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: go to the gas station and pay that gas tax. 621 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: It's also because EV's are much heavier than regular cars 622 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 1: and they do more damage to the roads. The cost 623 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: of evs is never honestly presented to the public. It 624 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: isn't just about saving some money at the gas station. 625 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: You also lose money when they start to tax you. 626 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 1: And you better believe the Blue states, at least in 627 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: this country, are thinking about doing the same thing as 628 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: Great Britain. Okay, coming up our failures in the classroom, 629 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: the reason why we're getting failing election results like we 630 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: saw in New York City. I'll talk to someone pushing 631 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 1: hard in just a moment for more and better civics 632 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: classes from high school through college. When an American centriser 633 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 1: ear leadition comes right back, stop discreet. But you can 634 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: do something in between, baby, you can job my come. 635 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: It's Friday, November seventh. Here this morning's top stories. I 636 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: really hope you're not on your way to an airport 637 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: and at an airport right now, because hundreds of flights 638 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: are being canceled across the country thanks to the Schumer shutdown. 639 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: This is the pain they want to extract from us. Hey, 640 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: but it must be nice, on the other hand, to 641 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: be a federal worker in DC when you go on 642 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: trial for attacking ICE agents, because you can be sure 643 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: your DC neighbors on the jury will always be on 644 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,160 Speaker 1: your side. Sure, this guy is getting off scott free, 645 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: but that SANDWICHI threw away will never get justice. I 646 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: hate wasted jun. All right, you're looking at the world's 647 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: first actual trillionaire this morning, Tesla's shareholders overwhelmingly voting to 648 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: approve Elon Musk's trillion dollar pay packaged this just in 649 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: that's a lot of money. And now that Musk doesn't 650 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 1: have to clip coupons anymore, maybe he and SpaceX can 651 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: afford to try to rescue some Chinese astronauts who are 652 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: now stranded aboard their space station. Their ride home was 653 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: hit by space debris. Hey, I think China should take 654 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: our offer to help, but we better extract a big 655 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: price from him. Let's see we can shake them down 656 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: a little bit. They do it to us. American Sunrise 657 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: Early Edition continues. Now, I mean, what would the uber 658 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 1: charges be for the million miles or so from outer 659 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: space back to Beijing. I mean, I think we can 660 00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 1: really think about some serious charges here, and you know, 661 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: we'll we'll get them a good Uber driver. I think 662 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: that we can really think about this. We should extract 663 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: some price, but they're using our technology that they sold anyway, 664 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,479 Speaker 1: so we might as well help them out right now. 665 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: But again, exactly big price. Okay, Welcome back to American's 666 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: Sunrise Early Adition. It's a no Tai Friday, and let's 667 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 1: get to something serious right now, because I think some 668 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:09,880 Speaker 1: of the things we talked about this week were the 669 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: results of problems in our education system. What else is 670 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: new joining us right now is doctor Jenna Robinson. She 671 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 1: is the president of the James G. Martin Center for 672 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 1: Academic Renewal. I've been focusing a lot on education this week. 673 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: I've had a few guests about this, and the Martin 674 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: Center has a new study out comparing Civics education in 675 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: all fifty states. Doctor Robinson, this is something that I 676 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: think most Americans have known for a long time that 677 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: civic education is really weak. I wonder if we talk 678 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: to people who voted, and I wonder if you guys 679 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: are ever thinking about doing some exit polling and asking 680 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 1: them certain questions like who was the last person to 681 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 1: hold this office? What are the responsibilities of this office? 682 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: I almost cringe. Remember that old Jay Leno j walking 683 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: thing when he would ask people stuff and they didn't 684 00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: have a clue in the world about what was going on. 685 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: A bad feeling that this would be bad if you 686 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: guys did exit poles. Yeah. 687 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 6: In fact, we don't need to do exit polls because 688 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 6: we know that voters in general are just very uninformed 689 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 6: about civics, about how American government works. 690 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: About why we have some of the laws we have. 691 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 6: So if you ask them about the three branches of government, 692 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 6: or who sits on the Supreme Court, or what is 693 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 6: the purpose of the Electoral College, you will get Blake Stairs. 694 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 6: I think famously, one poll included as an option on 695 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 6: the multiple choice who's on the Supreme Court? They included 696 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 6: Judge Judy as an option, and some voters and American 697 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 6: citizens thought. 698 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: That she was on the court. 699 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 6: So we know that civic knowledge is much much lower 700 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 6: than it should be in a republic like ours. 701 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: Now you're focusing on trying to get it improved in 702 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: individual states. I think you said something like only fourteen states, 703 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: they're really kind of doing this right or maybe at 704 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: least on the right track. Is that correct? 705 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 2: Right? 706 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 6: So, only fourteen states require all undergraduates at public universities 707 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 6: to take a Civics course. The news is a little 708 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 6: bit better for high school that there that requirements exist, 709 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 6: but I'm not convinced that the content in those courses 710 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 6: is what it should be. 711 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: Okay, you know, I think a lot of this has 712 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: to do also, not just about what's going on in 713 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: the classroom, but the general culture around us. There isn't 714 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 1: as much talk about our civic basics in this country. So, 715 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 1: doctor Robinson, I want to play a clip for you 716 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: of a very famous cartoon. You'll know it when you 717 00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: see it, and then I want to talk to you 718 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 1: about it on the other side. Check it out. 719 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 8: I'm just a bill, Yes, I'm only a bill, and 720 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 8: I'm sitting here on Capitol here. Well, it's a long 721 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 8: long journey to the Capitol city. It's a long long wait. 722 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,880 Speaker 8: While I'm sitting Incomemmittee but I know I'll be a 723 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 8: law somedayast o allan praise that I will. 724 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 1: But today I am still just a bill. All right. 725 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 1: That's the old school house rock thing telling teaching kids 726 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: about how bills become a law. Honestly, I don't think 727 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: that this is something that most kids know today. I 728 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: don't care if they learned different watching Saturday Morning cartoons, 729 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 1: but I don't think kids even do that anymore. They 730 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 1: watch stuff on their phones. It's also the general culture 731 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:19,760 Speaker 1: around us, right, It's not just classroom. 732 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 6: Stuff, absolutely, I think, and there's a lack of public 733 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 6: trust that probably makes them less interested in learning on 734 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 6: how things work in Washington because their general impression is 735 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 6: probably that things don't work in Washington, and so why 736 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 6: should they bother figuring it out? And I have some 737 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 6: sympathy with that, but I think ultimately we have to 738 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 6: get to a place where we have better civic knowledge 739 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 6: before we have before we start encouraging civic engagement. Knowledge first, 740 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:48,920 Speaker 6: then engagement. And I think right now a lot of 741 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 6: our classrooms have it backwards. They tell students to go 742 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 6: get engaged, but they don't tell students to actually find 743 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:57,840 Speaker 6: out how our system works. 744 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: Now that to me, is an incredible pearl of wisdom 745 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,479 Speaker 1: that you just shared with us. You know, we're talking 746 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: on this program many times about teachers who are sending 747 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:09,840 Speaker 1: kids out. This is especially at the college level, but 748 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 1: even at the high school level, sending kids out to protests, 749 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 1: encouraging them to protest without really asking them questions. And 750 00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:17,919 Speaker 1: it reminds me of what a number of people told 751 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,720 Speaker 1: me who lived during the Vietnam era in this country 752 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: and when those protests started to get really pervasive. A 753 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: number of them told me that they were seniors in 754 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: high school, or they were freshmen in college, and they 755 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: had a teacher or they had a professor who asked 756 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: them very socratic method type questions about why they were 757 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: protesting what they thought specifically was wrong, and when he 758 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: showed them through that process, or these teachers showed them 759 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: through that process, I know there were female teachers who 760 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: did it too, that they really didn't know all the 761 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: things out there, that they maybe couldn't even find Vietnam 762 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: on a map, that they didn't really understand what the 763 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: policy was. They thought twice about it, and it may 764 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: have started and I don't know if our teachers are 765 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 1: doing that right now. 766 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 6: We do have something called action civics that is being 767 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 6: promoted in a lot of our schools, which is it 768 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 6: focusing on engagement rather than poor knowledge, and so students 769 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 6: are encouraged to become part of the process before they 770 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 6: understand the process. So it is a problem that we're 771 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 6: facing right now. I don't know if it's the same 772 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 6: extent that went on during the Vietnam War, but we 773 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 6: do need to change the way we teach physics because 774 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 6: I think the most interesting thing we found when we 775 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 6: did this fifty state comparison is that almost all our 776 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,919 Speaker 6: states are teaching civics to high school students, which means 777 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 6: that all high school graduates should have a baseline of knowledge, 778 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 6: and yet we know that they don't. So something is 779 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 6: going wrong in those classrooms. Students are either not learning 780 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 6: or not retaining the information they need to be responsible 781 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 6: citizens and responsible voters. 782 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: You know, it might just be a question of creating 783 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,600 Speaker 1: an Advanced Placement test and AP test that just focuses 784 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: on the structure of our civics in this country, simple 785 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: as that it might be for the students who decide 786 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,919 Speaker 1: to really learn it, it might be an easy five 787 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: and maybe they can get credit in college for it. 788 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: That might be one way to do it. Maybe a 789 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: carrit and a stick in that way, Doctor Jenner Robinson, 790 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: you're a much younger. I think you're a significantly younger 791 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: person than I am, because I know you're really focusing 792 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: a lot on the two hundred and fifty of the 793 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: anniversary of the United States next year. It's going to 794 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: be a lot of celebrations, a lot of absorbed, you know, 795 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: basically observances of it. The reason why I note that 796 00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:34,280 Speaker 1: I think you're significantly younger than I am is because 797 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: I very much remember the bi centennial celebrations in this 798 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: country in nineteen seventy six, and they went beyond a 799 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 1: few weeks. They went beyond just parties and fireworks. I 800 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: can tell you that it was incredibly pervasive across this country. 801 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: Everything was bi centennial. It was something that you saw 802 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 1: on TV and in the movies. It was all over 803 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,480 Speaker 1: the corporate and the commercial or the stores that you 804 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 1: went in, and it was a lot of information. I mean, 805 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 1: a lot of us got, almost by osmosis, an incredible 806 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 1: education in the history of this country. I know President 807 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: Trump wants to make a big deal out of the 808 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 1: two fiftieth, then I think you will, and I think 809 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,760 Speaker 1: there will be some great celebrations. But even at this point, 810 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,719 Speaker 1: I can tell you we're way behind what they did 811 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy six in this country to really really 812 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 1: hammer home these lessons. So what are you trying to 813 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: do to kickstart that for next year? 814 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 6: So we're going to do a couple of things on 815 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 6: the two hundred and fiftieth. One thing, of course, is 816 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 6: releasing this report and getting into the hands of you know, 817 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 6: state legislatures and encouraging them to have undergraduates take a 818 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 6: Civics course. I think that would be a great thing 819 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 6: to be able to say at the end of next year, 820 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,000 Speaker 6: is that we move the needle and that more students 821 00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:49,360 Speaker 6: are taking Civics in college and taking high quality Civics 822 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 6: courses in college. I think that would be an amazing 823 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 6: win for our Simi Quin centennial. But the Martin Center 824 00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,840 Speaker 6: is also kicking off a contest for the best intellectual 825 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 6: contributions that made America what it is, and so we're 826 00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 6: looking at things like documents to the Constitution, the Declaration 827 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 6: of Independence, but also works of art and scientific contributions 828 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 6: and poetry and literature and so we're very excited about that. 829 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,720 Speaker 6: So far, we are already we've already launched the contest 830 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:25,359 Speaker 6: and we've seen speeches and ideas go head to head. 831 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 6: I'm betting that the Declaration of Independence is going to win, 832 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 6: but we're excited about that opportunity for anybody who comes 833 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 6: to our website to vote on what was the most 834 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 6: important intellectual contribution to our nations founding? 835 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: All right, and I also think there should be essay contests. 836 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 1: I have a topic that I'd like to put in 837 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: for an essay contest. Tell ask when did the United 838 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: States switch from indirect election of senators from the state 839 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: legislatures appointing them to direct election? Why did they do it? 840 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 1: And has it been a net positive or net negative? 841 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 1: And you have three hundred words. That's going to be 842 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:04,120 Speaker 1: my assignment, Doctor Jenner Robinson, thank you. That's a good one. Right, 843 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: that's a good one. I think it was a disaster. 844 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 1: By the way, we have senators now who just go 845 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: on TV and they don't do anything. When they had 846 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: to answer to the legislature, they did more for the country. 847 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: But again that's my opinion. Jenna Robbinson, thank you so 848 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: much for joining us. Doctor Jenner Robinson from the Martin Center. 849 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: Thank you for the work that you're doing. Good luck 850 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: with it, and be in touch for if you need 851 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,480 Speaker 1: any more help on any of the individual projects you're 852 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: going to do, especially next year. Thank you so much. 853 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: Thank you all right, have a Greek weekend coming up. 854 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 1: Why this is an important question to ask. Why has 855 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: the number of falsehoods, psyops and just playing bs risen 856 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 1: in America at the same time that our ability to 857 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: find facts at our fingertips has also gone up. Why 858 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: are the lies going up too? David Brody and I 859 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,879 Speaker 1: will tackle that when American Sunrise Early edition comes quite back. 860 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: Welcome back to American Centers, A relation, a live look 861 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: at our nation's capital. I'm going to talk a lot 862 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 1: about in the next couple of hours, the continuing shutdown 863 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: and the massive pain that the Democrats are now inflicting 864 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: on America. I hope you're not going to an airport 865 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 1: this weekend or had a vacation plan. A lot of 866 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:38,320 Speaker 1: flights canceled. It's really bad at the security lines. The Democrats, 867 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: in their own words I'm quoting them, say they need 868 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:46,320 Speaker 1: to extract more pain from Americans. It's just incredible that 869 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: this continues. The reason for it a lot of big 870 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 1: reason for it the mainstream media. They did an analysis 871 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: yesterday about ninety percent of the mainstream media coverage of 872 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,920 Speaker 1: the shutdown blames the Republicans, even though it's the Democrats 873 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: who voted for it and have voted to continue at 874 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,399 Speaker 1: fourteen times. This is what happens when you get lies 875 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: in the news. Video Speaking of lies, I noticed something 876 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: earlier this week, and I didn't just think about it, 877 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 1: and I didn't just post about it. I wanted all 878 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,879 Speaker 1: of you folks to test me on this thought of mine. 879 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:17,319 Speaker 1: I posted this. I said that, you know, a great 880 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 1: paradox in the Western world right now is that, even 881 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: as technology makes it possible for us to get all 882 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: the facts verified in just a moment, just have to 883 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 1: go on my phone and I can get facts, no problem, 884 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,839 Speaker 1: at the same time, the number of falsehoods in our 885 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 1: society is growing exponentially. So why is that? Why is 886 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: it when we have the facts at our fingertips, we're 887 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 1: going and seeing more lies than ever all over the place. 888 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: This is a variation on the other joke about how 889 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 1: we have all of human knowledge in the world at 890 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:48,800 Speaker 1: our fingertips on a phone right now, and all we 891 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: ever do is look at cat videos on the internet. 892 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,719 Speaker 1: David Brody breaking in here. I want to bring this in. 893 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 1: I think you might agree with my first premise. I 894 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: wonder if you agree with one of my reasons for this. 895 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,240 Speaker 1: Here's my reason. I think that some of the lies 896 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: and conspiracy theories and other nonsense that used to only 897 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 1: be spread in quiet shadows, on bathroom walls or in 898 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 1: private is now being spread on the very same platforms 899 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:14,759 Speaker 1: where we get our facts. In other words, the same 900 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 1: social media platform or website where I find out whether 901 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 1: there's a tornado warning, which I believe, whether I find 902 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 1: out what the stock prices are, when I find out 903 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:26,359 Speaker 1: what the sports scores are, also is the platform where 904 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: you see the lies being spread. And I'm not saying 905 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: we should get rid of free speech here. I'm just 906 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: saying I think this is a case of all of 907 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: a sudden, it's all in the same room when it 908 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: wasn't before. That's my explanation for it. 909 00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, and let me just pile not pile on, let 910 00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 7: me pile on you this morning. 911 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 2: No, just kidding. 912 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 7: Let me continue on and just simply say two words algorithms, 913 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 7: And I guess this is two other words echo chambers. 914 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,600 Speaker 7: When you're in an echo chamber and you have an 915 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 7: algorithm that is feeding you what you want to hear, 916 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,799 Speaker 7: and then other people are saying the exact same thing, well, 917 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 7: then guess what it's true? Oh wait, no, maybe it's not. 918 00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 7: But if you think when you leave the online atmosphere 919 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,520 Speaker 7: to say, well, everybody's saying it, it's got to be true. 920 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: Everybody exactly.
