Then we're gonna bring 83 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,119 Speaker 1: in our good friend from right Wing Watch, Jared Holt, 84 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: and he is going to give us a little insight 85 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: into how the coven and Catholic story progressed over the 86 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: past handful of days as the right wing kind of 87 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: spun the media and the media let itself be spun 88 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: like a good dancing partner.

Oh, 92 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: of that and more. But first Lydia, what is something 93 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: from your search history that's revealing about who you are? Oh? God, 94 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: that's that's a great question. Um. I have several different devices, 95 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 1: so it's like, depending upon which device is probably what 96 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 1: I've searched recently. But I will say this, I opened 97 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: up a device that I used frequently and I I 98 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: didn't realize that Google is now just kind of suggesting 99 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: things to you based on previous things. Uh, something that 100 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: I am obsessed with, someone I'm obsessed with Dolly Parton. 101 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 1: So almost every day I get served like some sort 102 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: of news about Dolly Parton that I didn't ask for, 103 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: but I'm so happy that I got. So the latest 104 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: is that she is taking five outfits from her vast 105 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: collection of clothing that she has had over the years 106 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: of performances, and she is bringing them to Los Angeles 107 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: and putting them in the Grammy Museum because she's being 108 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: honored as a Grammy's Music care Person of the Year. 109 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 1: So you can go and see Dolly Parton's outfits if 110 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: you ever wanted to see just how mesmerizing um and 111 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: how defying of gravity in science her body is just go. 112 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I don't know.

She's not cut 128 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: Vondie walking around in a sparkly dress. But she absolutely 129 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: has tattoos. She's actually talked about it on several interviews, 130 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 1: and this past summer we actually got like a little 131 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: special thing.

And no? 190 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: Here's here's it's a trick answer. So I have one 191 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: brother and we are eleven years apart. He was born 192 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: when I was thirteen, so I was an only child 193 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 1: and then I have a brother. You know what I mean? Functionally, 194 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: you grew up an only child completely like my the 195 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: way that I was raised, like my parents were together. 196 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: I had a mom and dad in the house. They 197 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 1: fought all the time. It was crazy, but it was 198 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: just me. And then when he was born, my parents 199 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: were the other for like another two years and then 200 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: they were apart, so he had such a different life. 201 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: So we both had our own only childhood and then 202 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: but we also are really close and have a great bond. 203 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: We went from like me being a second mom to 204 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: me being like a best friend. So yeah, it's great. 205 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: We get along really well. He's awesome. Everybody should have 206 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: like a I mean, I guess that's why the Big 207 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: Brother and Big Sister Foundation existed, so you can have 208 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: somebody who's like a mentor difference from you, who's looking 209 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: out for you. That's to someone who starts smoking cigarettes 210 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: two years before you. Let somebody gets something under their belt. 211 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean, my brother didn't start smoking weed until he 212 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: was like twenty six, so I had tons of years. 213 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 1: I was just like, you had like a collection. He's like, 214 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: I just tried weed. You're like, okay, you can finally 215 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: inherit these treasure. Well this is how long it was. 216 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: It's like by the time he started smoking weed, like 217 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: weed had kind of got out in a fashion, so 218 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 1: he started smoking concentrates, like started dabbing, and I had 219 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 1: to be like, so flowers, And then I was like, wait, 220 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: dabbing is the future so much sense? Why am I 221 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: wasting time and money on we So now we live 222 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: in a beautiful world where you know, we dad as 223 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 1: a family exactly. Man, I wis had siblings I could 224 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: dab with, although shout out to siblings who are only 225 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 1: a couple of years older. I had a great older 226 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: sister who showed me, showed me the ropes because she 227 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 1: was probably mentally like five years older than me, though 228 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: she was only two years older. Older sister's rule, what 229 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated? Overrated? Almond milk boom? 230 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: Not a fan. There's so many great non dairy milk alternatives, 231 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: like like first and foremost, like coconut milk is amazing. Yeah, 232 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: And I also's probably a preface this by saying like 233 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: my only consumption of milk in general was like in 234 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: a smoothie or in a milkshake or in my coffee. 235 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 1: Like I'm not like a glass of milk drinker. Not 236 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 1: many sane people are right, because milk is for baby cows, 237 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: not for grown ass humans. Although when it's weird in Japan, 238 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: I love Japanese milk because so rich, I will drink 239 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: a fucking know what's interesting. I've went to Japan rely 240 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: for the first one wich to Tokyo, and I did 241 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: not eat any dairy. Oh I should have tried some 242 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: milk intolerant. I'm not a big fan. And I mean, 243 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: I can, I think with cheese have a but I 244 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: try not to, just because I'm trying not to. But 245 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: when I go to Europe, it's like all I eat. 246 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: I want to eat every thing that is dairy there. 247 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: And I'm just like, oh, butter, y'all have four slices 248 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: by itself? Oh what's this yogurt? Y'a'll take a pint, 249 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? Just because it's so good. 250 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: But I never thought I should know. I'm not at myself. 251 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: Next time, I'm can make good. So what other? What 252 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: other non aside from coconut milk, Yeah, coconut milk, oat 253 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: milk for coffee, big fan, I turned my nose up. 254 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: But at first, but honestly, it's great. It's so thick, 255 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: it's delicious, it's frothy. It really does something with the 256 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: acidity of the coffee bean and turns it into this 257 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 1: beautiful lunch beverage. If you're drinking it hot, it's gorgeous. 258 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: You talk about a bed use of almond milk coffee, 259 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: it's fucking great. It's disgusting, makes all up and then 260 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: it also just tastes like somebody literally throw some almonds 261 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: in your coffee, which, like, if I wanted a Jamaica 262 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: fudge almond situation, I'd have it. But no, I just 263 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: want some coffee. I want it to be kind of creamy, 264 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: so that OHT milk is great. Um, I'm I'm team 265 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: oat milk and team coconut milk all the way, a 266 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: coconut milk froth. Get out of here, Get out of here, 267 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: all right? Yeah, okay, get out of Dolly Parton and coffee. 268 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 1: We could do some breakdowns. You have ninety days, you 269 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: know what I mean. I also watched Love and Hip Hop. 270 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: You want to get that drag race where you can't 271 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: get that in. Yeah, by the time you guys get 272 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: back with your espresso, steamers and cartons of coconut milk, 273 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: and she'll already have show. And finally, Lydia, what is 274 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: a myth? What's something people think is true? You know 275 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: to be false? Plastic straws are not going to ruin 276 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: the environment. US laying off plastic straws isn't going to 277 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: save the environment. Our problems are so much deeper than 278 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: a plastic fucking straw. The plastic straw is the new 279 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: like six pack holder from the eighties, remember when people 280 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: use that, it became this symbol for like be responsible, 281 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,120 Speaker 1: think about recycling. Like every ten years we come up 282 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: with this one object that's like the devil, like this 283 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: is gonna solve it. It It was plastic bags, and now 284 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: it's plastic straws. Like open up your eyes, you freaking 285 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: cheap all, Like I just want to straw to drink 286 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: my ice coffee, Like a plastic one is what I need. 287 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 1: That paper joint gives me twelve seconds to drink my 288 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: coffee before it disintegrates into like a paper mache project. 289 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: Non necessary. So you say that in the sense that 290 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: it's one of those sort of items that people point 291 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: to as being the issue rather than addressing like a 292 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: greater use of plastics like an industrial level, right, absolutely 293 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: following on the consumer level to be like you need 294 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: to solve our problems that are actually at an higher 295 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: industry level. I mean, if we really want to be 296 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: extra real. And this is controversial because I just talked 297 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: about what a big weed smoker I am, but like 298 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: I'm also super annoyed by like all the new rules 299 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: and regulations around medical marijuana. So we're outlined and demonizing straws, 300 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: which is basically one cylindrical piece of plastic and a 301 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: biodegradable paper sleeve and or biodegradable plastic that maybe takes 302 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: longer time. But now we have medical marijuana in several 303 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: states and we have put all these things in a place, 304 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: so now we have all the successive packaging. So in 305 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 1: order to get your flowers or to get your concentrated, 306 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: to get your vape pan, there's usually two to four 307 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: pieces of plastic that you have to char through to 308 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: get to your product, and all that stuff is being 309 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: thrown away. So like let's look at the bigger problem, 310 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: which is the use of plastics. We could also talk 311 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: about like it on a much bigger level, like what 312 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: about the amount of energy that is like being put 313 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: into support servers that like handle all of our Internet 314 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: stuff and handles all of the data, Like think about 315 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: like the digital traffic on the plastic and like the output. 316 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: Like there's much bigger issues that if we really wanted 317 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: to make a difference, we should charge stwards. It's like 318 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 1: when when power companies utility companies like you, everyone should 319 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: be using those like those twisty light bulbs instead of 320 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 1: those other ones, because that's really the problem yeah, that's 321 00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: the problem that Yeah again, so you're seeing because you know, 322 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: sometimes people take things literally on this show and then 323 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: would be like, you know, plastic, plastic is not a 324 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 1: problem problem to stop trying to put it on at 325 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: the consumer level when things can be done in a 326 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: much higher level. But you know, regulations are that's a 327 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 1: third rail word to some capitalists. And I also fix 328 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: it one straw at a time, and for me, like plastic, 329 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: I mean not to say again, yes it's an issue, 330 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: Yes it's a problem, but there are just other things 331 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: that I wish people would mobilize against with as much 332 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 1: verocity and ferocity.

Like, if we're going to do it, 352 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: like the adult sippy cup is the only thing that 353 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 1: I've seen that's like close to coming up with, Like 354 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: Starbucks come out with literally like a little sippy cup 355 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: so you don't like spill onto yourself. Right, And there's 356 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,719 Speaker 1: also the like metal straws, but again you have to 357 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: keep track of those, keep those with you. Yeah. You 358 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: know who I bet could make a really good alternative 359 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: to plastic straws is those giant corporations who are responsible 360 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,720 Speaker 1: for destroying the environment in the first Yeah, maybe j 361 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: prioritize it instead of us having to do it one 362 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 1: straw at a time. You know, like they said, companies 363 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: are responsible for seventy one of global warming and climate change. 364 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 1: So but it's on us, yes, what I mean, But 365 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 1: that's straw down by. Yeah, you know what I mean. 366 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: Don't you use that plastic bag? Hey, speaking of giant corporations, 367 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 1: McDonald is doing bacon fry. We talked about this last year. 368 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 1: We we saw there were rumors very rabbid McDonald's fans 369 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: were like, they're testing bacon fries in this market. In 370 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: the past, this market has been used to test for 371 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: like much larger national rollouts of menu items and behold, 372 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: I think starting on thet those bacon cheese fries will 373 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 1: be available, and on top of that, they're gonna add 374 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: like bacon there. You can get bacon on like a 375 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: big Mac or quarter pounder. The only reason I bring 376 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: this up is to promote this. On January next Tuesday, 377 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: from four to five pm local time, McDonald's is having 378 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: what they call the Bacon Hour, where they will let 379 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: you add bacon to any item on the menu that 380 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: you could put it on a filail fish sandwich and 381 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: really gross your friends out. Apple pie, yeah, fuck it, 382 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 1: apple pie, mc fleury, whatever, anything. They will let you 383 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: do it, so you know, just to keep all you 384 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: stoners on red alert. It's happening, and it's happening for free. 385 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: That's a good like marketing stunt. Although it's weird. I 386 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,360 Speaker 1: still as much as I like talk about, like, oh 387 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: that would be cool, I still need breakfast McDonald's. You 388 00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:13,479 Speaker 1: still only eat Yeah, that's like I haven't had like 389 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: a non breakfast item that wasn't fries and a pretty 390 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: long time. The fries are so good, though, man, the 391 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: breakfast like the cult of breakfast at McDonald's is something 392 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: that I have never got into. Yeah, it's like I'm 393 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: not like even as a kid, Like I honestly didn't 394 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: have breakfast at McDonald's until I was like in my thirties. 395 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 1: Like it just wasn't a thing that like I was like, 396 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: why would I want this? And then I had it. 397 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, yeah, you want to start your 398 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 1: day off feeling like you have for me? With for me, 399 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 1: it started off because my mom's Japanese, Like, I did 400 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: not grow up eating traditional American breakfast food, so I 401 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: should be in fetishizing like eggs and bacon and sausage 402 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: like a McMuffin type ship. And then I used to 403 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: play hockey, so you would wake up fucking wild early 404 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,680 Speaker 1: to go to practice, and I was like, the only 405 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: thing my practice would be over. It would be seven am. 406 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,200 Speaker 1: And then then my dad would be like, let's get McDonald's. 407 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 1: My dad's black, so he was like And then from 408 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: there I was like, see this is what I like, 409 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: and I would ask my mom to buy Sage's like 410 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: I don't know how to make that. I'm not doing that. 411 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: So then that's how for me it kind of turned 412 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: into that. But I know people that are also just 413 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: you know, red blooded Americans. You're just fucking love this 414 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: ship out of it. And I don't know what it is. 415 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: If it's a convenience thing, if it's just like the 416 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: proper MSG and salt and fat is just hitting your 417 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: brain and the right you know levels that it becomes addictive. 418 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, I've definitely like enjoyed the ship 419 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: out of McDonald's over my lifetime. Don't get me wrong. 420 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: It's just not something that like, no, I know, because 421 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: it's one of those things like the cult of Bacon. 422 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 1: There's very similar that's the cult of McDonald's Breakfast, where 423 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: people are like we'll just spill their blood in the 424 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: street from Oh yeah, for sure. I'm more fascinating by 425 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,320 Speaker 1: people that are like, I eat a Big Mac every 426 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: single day for the last like nineties seven years. Like 427 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 1: there's some dude that is like eating a big Mac 428 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 1: every single day. Yeah, we're in Buffett eats McDonald's breakfast 429 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: every single more. And he's still alive and doing well. 430 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: Uh last I heard say he's doing well. I don't know. 431 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: I have a theory about like your body can be 432 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: like if you do anything in repetition, your body can 433 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 1: adapt to it. Right. So it's like if you had 434 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 1: five cheerios and you know, a bowl full of sugar 435 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 1: every single day, and you know, for your whole life, 436 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: and that's what your body knows. I think it would 437 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 1: be more detrimental if you're like the one day, don't 438 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 1: have that bullets. Sh Right. You had a friend whose 439 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: grandma like only eight hot dogs and drap in like 440 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: the last twenty years of her life up until she 441 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: was like, damn, honestly, I'm not gonna lie. I'm kind 442 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 1: of looking forward to that future. But aigarette, Yeah, man, 443 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: Like when I hit sixty, if I'm still kicking like 444 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 1: I'm not I'm going to do all the things that 445 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to do. Anything like that I that 446 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,880 Speaker 1: I tried, I'm gonna be like, oh no, no, guess what. Yeah, 447 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: you know, I definitely smoke a joint every single morning 448 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: before I talk to anybody. I'm not saying it's all genetics, 449 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 1: your choices, Ken, but at that point I'm sixty, like 450 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 1: I put in these good years, Like what else? Get 451 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 1: let's right out, let's do this. I just want to 452 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: while out into whatever I want. You gotta be asked 453 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: questions about it. Briefly, let's talk about sweethearts, because this 454 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 1: is the drought that absolutely nobody was going to notice 455 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: if we hadn't mentioned it. Nobody gives a shit about 456 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: these things. But those shitty pieces of edible sidewalk chalk, 457 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: as you wrote, Miles, those are not going to be 458 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: around this downin stuff. Right. So remember we talked about 459 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: how Neco Wafers went under, and I was like, good 460 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: riddance to them ships. And then so that that same 461 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 1: company that went under the New England Confectionery Company, they 462 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 1: were bought by Spangler Candy Company, so somehow they were 463 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: this company was like we need to keep the necho 464 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: wafer alive. But they said this year they are not 465 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: going to be producing the Sweetheart, which means that the 466 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 1: Bracts brand of conversation hearts has picked up the mantle 467 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: and apparently it's like a lot of people are buying 468 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: it because they're they're just sweethearts are very There's not 469 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: much supply right now, but again I don't know, there's 470 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: not some ships that I really ever looked forward to. 471 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: There were always something like you would get and you 472 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: would immediately throw away buddy eats those right, well, you 473 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: eat them once and then you're like fun you eat. 474 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: But these are very important to the second grade economy 475 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: of candy grams exchanges of you know, somebody just needs 476 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: to put out an article that so they have peanuts 477 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 1: in them.

This 480 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: is a lovely marketing spin and a wonderful job by 481 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: the Brax Candy Company and their PR department. And that 482 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: is what we're here for, to perpetuate the marketing spins 483 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 1: of giant food companies.

Yeah, if this 507 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: story seems chaotic or confusing or like nobody knows what's 508 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 1: going on, that is on purpose because whenever it's a 509 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: PR strategy, whenever you can flood the zone with you know, 510 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: bits and pieces and various claims of information, that provides 511 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 1: a solid foundation to build a new narrative. And that's 512 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: exactly what we've seen develop over what is it, day four, 513 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: day five of this story. And so, like it started 514 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: off with everyone just sort of initially seeing the first 515 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:55,040 Speaker 1: clip of Nicholas Sandman in Yeah, Nathan Phillips, he was 516 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 1: playing his drum and you just see that ship eating 517 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: grin in his face, and you see all his classmates, 518 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: you know, mocking him and things like that and just whatever, 519 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: hoho and hollery and ship.

You know, they didn't mob him, 524 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: he came up to them, and therefore this kid was 525 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: standing his ground and just being polite or whatever was 526 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: in your ground.

The Atlantic, the columnist who 534 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: wrote about it, was like, I'm gonna sit the next 535 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:50,360 Speaker 1: outrage wave out you guys. I made a bad decision. 536 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: So yeah, let's talk about how the story actually evolved. Yeah. 537 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: So it was late afternoon after the March for Life rally, 538 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,640 Speaker 1: which is a rally that takes place in DC every 539 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: year where various religious organizations and schools, you know, busing 540 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 1: a ton of kids and a ton of activists into 541 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: d C for a few days to fight against women's 542 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 1: rights to reproductive healthcare. These group of kids from Covington 543 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: Catholic High School in Kentucky were at the Lincoln Memorial 544 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: Um allegedly waiting on a bus, and they got into 545 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: this altercation back and forth, maybe altercations too harsh for 546 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 1: a word like shouting match with black Hebrew is realized, 547 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,840 Speaker 1: which anybody who lives in a major city has seen 548 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:44,959 Speaker 1: this group. They show up on street corners, yell inflammatory 549 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: things and seek to you know, get attention. I sort 550 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: of liken it to the Westboro Baptist Church. So then 551 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: incomes Nathan Phillips and some various indigenous activists that are 552 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: in town for the Indigenous p Foles March, and you know, 553 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: they get in between the groups. Nathan Phillips is banging 554 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: his drum and singing, and then you get to the 555 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: point where this clip is filmed. That clip goes viral 556 00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: overnight into early Saturday, and media personalities watch the clip. 557 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 1: I if I remember right, it was about two minutes, 558 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: and a lot of them, you know, reacted to what 559 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: they saw, which was incredible disrespect and it was just gross. 560 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: It just felt gross, you know. And then incomes this 561 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: right wing you know, media PR campaign that you know, 562 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: is being ginned up by this PR firm in Kentucky 563 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:51,440 Speaker 1: called Run Switch PR. And it starts with people like 564 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: Joey Salads, who is a right wing YouTuber who is 565 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: infamous for pissing into his own mouth for views, and 566 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: and you know, sort of filters up into people like 567 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: the Mike cernovich Is of the world, the Jack Pisopics 568 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: of the world, people who already have sort of a 569 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: questionable credibility because of involvement with conspiracy theories and outlets 570 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: like info Wars. They pick up the story and then 571 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: from there it gets picked up in Reason magazine, and 572 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 1: that is really sort of what lit the match on this, 573 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: and once it was in Reason, it shot up through 574 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: conservative media, and you know, with each new additional video 575 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: angle that came out, there were more and more cries 576 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: for reporters to retract their claims or to correct their claims. 577 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 1: But what's important to remember is no amount of additional 578 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: footage or content changed the facts of what happened in 579 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: that video and what people originally reacted to still stands. 580 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: It still happens. You know, really, this is just sort 581 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: of like a classic story of major media outlets and 582 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: you know, what we believe to be credible reporters getting 583 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: thrown off their game by a wide scale misinformation campaign 584 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: and sort of in the process, whether consciously or not, 585 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: granting a luxury to the students that you don't see 586 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 1: media grant too people in other cases, like you know, 587 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: most prominently when young black men get shot by the police. 588 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: The Yeah, I feel like functionally or even the contextually, 589 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 1: the only thing that I saw that changed was maybe 590 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: the idea that these kids swarmed Nathan Phillips and that 591 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: he approached them. But even in that context, right like 592 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: when they were like, well, we had to just sort 593 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: of like we were just responding in the way we thought. 594 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: I mean, even then, I don't even think that is 595 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: the decent way, right if you're if you're going to 596 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: objectively try and not avoid any kind of conflict, you 597 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: just walk away. But rather than everybody has their maga 598 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: hats on, they're all turned up, they're doing the chop 599 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: and saying all kinds of other things, and I mean 600 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 1: they're doing the tomahawk chop in the background that is like, 601 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: how is that? Mister? I am sorry, But whether you're 602 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 1: a child or whether you are a hundred and seventy two, like, 603 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 1: I think it's pretty easy to identify disrespect, Yeah, exactly, 604 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: And I think fundamentally we should try to like treat 605 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: each other which as much respect as we humanly can, 606 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: even when we're in moments of debate, because I think 607 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 1: debate is important, right, and you're gonna need to have 608 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: conversations about things that's decidedly different than being accusatory, being aggressive, 609 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: being disrespectful, being dismissive, and whatever package you want to 610 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 1: wrap around that. But like the bottom line is this, 611 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 1: Like they all had red maga hats on, right, and 612 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: like I'm sorry, but like groups of young white men 613 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: are not known to really be like great, well you 614 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,720 Speaker 1: know what I mean in that situation approaching people of color, like, oh, yeah, 615 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 1: we're just supposed to be like, oh, these poor guys, Like, oh, 616 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: you mean the future torment terms of America, you mean 617 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: the next generation of oppressors and yeah, And you think 618 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: about the history of white intimidation against groups of people 619 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: of color who are trying to demonstrate or are trying 620 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 1: to protest, Like everyone was running all those historical photos 621 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 1: of how it looks, sh it has not changed, you know, 622 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,760 Speaker 1: Like there's a history of this of people trying to 623 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: have their voices heard and then being intimidated. So I 624 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,239 Speaker 1: think it falls in line with that and then this 625 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: idea that there, you know, I think what Sarah could be. 626 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: Sanders like, oh, how quickly we love to destroy a 627 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: child's life. You'll miss me with that ship because when 628 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: these kids are brown at the border and put them 629 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: up from their families, where is that empathy? What about Yeah, 630 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: the children cages that are dying because we won't give 631 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: them water because their parents are trying to make passage 632 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: for a better life for their children. It's really frustrating, 633 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: and I think there's a lot of you know, a 634 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: lot of people were instantly. I think the other thing too, 635 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: is we do live in an era right where we 636 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,360 Speaker 1: have acknowledged that people are sort of bringing their own 637 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: ship to even looking at a given image or video, 638 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: And I think that that's why people were able to 639 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:01,959 Speaker 1: play round with that, because some people saw, oh, I 640 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 1: just saw a kid smiling. Other people were like, I 641 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: know that shit eating grin because I've been on the 642 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 1: other end of that shit eating grin in my life. 643 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,760 Speaker 1: And other people were like, well, I don't know, we 644 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 1: still have to see. And I think they were able 645 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: to play around with a lot of people bringing their 646 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: own sort of viewpoint to that and sort of missing 647 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: the overarching point, like you said, Jared, is that we 648 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: know disrespect when we see it, and this they're not 649 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,479 Speaker 1: having their lives destroyed. I don't see any of these 650 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: kids they're being run out on a rail from anywhere. 651 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: If anything, they're being shamed for their shameful behavior. Uh. 652 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,479 Speaker 1: And I think again. But but the right wing victim 653 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: self victimization machine fired up like real quick. H And 654 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: we got to this point. Yeah, yeah, we know what 655 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 1: the maga hat symbolizes. They know what the maga hat symbolizes. 656 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: This is apparently a popular thing for groups of what 657 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: high school students to do is buy maga hats, and 658 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 1: like there was a group that went to the National 659 00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: Museum of African American History wearing it, and like it's 660 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 1: meant as a provocation. It's like a transgressive act. And 661 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: he's wearing it with a shit eating grin on his 662 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 1: face and not, as Tugger Carlson suggested, like a scared 663 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: look on his face. Motherfucker. P Yeah. And then to 664 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: that point too, he has a PR firm, right, Nathan 665 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 1: Phillips doesn't to uh Nick Sandman on the Today's Show 666 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, and then telling Savannah Guthrie that he's not 667 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: sorry what happened. He just says, I think I wish 668 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 1: things happened differently. And then now that this has been 669 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,959 Speaker 1: deployed as another piece in the culture war two, because 670 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: now I think there's rumors that like Trump might have 671 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: them the Coving too high school kids to the White 672 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,479 Speaker 1: House or some ship. I don't know if that's true. 673 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: I've been I've read things like that, but of course 674 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: that would happen. Yeah, I mean the hat is a 675 00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 1: symbol of Trump, and it symbolizes hatred. Like that's that's 676 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: just the point that we're at with this president. We 677 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 1: have an actual person who got into power via hatred, 678 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 1: Like there's no disputing that. And to ignore that, and 679 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: to ignore the fact that he's wearing a maga hat 680 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: in the face of you know, somebody who is there 681 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: explicitly because they are part of a oppressed minority, Like 682 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: just miss me with that ship about them like fucking 683 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,800 Speaker 1: like needing our sympathy and the benefit of our doubt 684 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,440 Speaker 1: they're being intentionally transgressive. Uh. And you know this is 685 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: this is a school by the way, that has a 686 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 1: history of just all sorts of weird ship, Like they 687 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: have students at basketball games where black face, like they said, well, 688 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: we have we have all theme nights.

And again 691 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: when you have people in all black but you're painting 692 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: on a smiley face and eyes, yes, you're not just 693 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: blacking your body putting on black face. And especially when 694 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: then you go to skip the blackout. Yeah, slip the 695 00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:58,399 Speaker 1: black out your body white blue. Great, there's too much. 696 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: Skip the red out, skip the yellow out, skip the 697 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: brown out. Let's just do purple out green. I bet 698 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,359 Speaker 1: when they're doing the blue out, they don't have a 699 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:12,359 Speaker 1: big smiley face like painted on their face, like it's 700 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: a minstrel cartoon. Well, right, and again to like even 701 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: the images you've seen of them, like there were students 702 00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 1: in black face, like just like trying to, like I 703 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: don't know, provoke a black basketball player in the opposition 704 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: team at a game. You're like, come on, and then 705 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 1: like you know, a lot of people, I don't know 706 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,839 Speaker 1: how much of these anecdotal or anecdotes are true, but 707 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 1: other people have come out with stories of like people 708 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: who had gone there in the past and like, you know, 709 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: this is not really surprising for the school, right, I 710 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 1: mean you know, oh, I mean like this can all 711 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 1: like feel very frustrating, and you like look too media 712 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: outlets in this country, especially the big ones, and you 713 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,439 Speaker 1: wonder like how this could happen. But the fact is, 714 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 1: like this thing, whether it's you know, the photos of 715 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 1: the students in black face get up or you know, 716 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 1: this original clip or various you know, other details that 717 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 1: are coming out about how these boys behaved at the 718 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 1: march or things that have happened at the school, Like 719 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 1: it's all very clear. But it's sort of a big 720 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 1: problem that we have in our reporting right now, which 721 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 1: is that you know, right wing causes are able to 722 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: completely manipulate reporters and change the conversation entirely and in 723 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: the process abandon all responsibility for anything shitty that's happening 724 00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: or any problems in this country that we need to 725 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 1: have an honest conversation about, right It's happening with the 726 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 1: quote unquote debate over the wall, like now suddenly Nancy 727 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 1: Pelosi is being depicted as you know, just one side 728 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: in this debate over like whether the wall needs to 729 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: be funded and the government shut down, and you know 730 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:57,960 Speaker 1: they're the Democrats not willing to entertain any ideas on 731 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: funding a monument to racism is now, you know, that's 732 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: just one side of of the debate. This is going 733 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 1: to happen in a world where you know, the president 734 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: himself is his name is used as a taught by 735 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: school bullies and people who are like harassing someone for 736 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: racist reason in a coming off a year where the 737 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:25,879 Speaker 1: you know, white people committed the most extremist violence ever 738 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: this last year, so you know, ship like that's on 739 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: the rise. And also I think there also needs to 740 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: be just as much you know, smoke for these parents 741 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 1: and teachers too, you know what I mean, because like, yeah, 742 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 1: I get to a certain point. You know, when you're 743 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: a kid, you really don't know Ship, But also you 744 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 1: need that's where mentors, teachers, parents need to step in 745 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,720 Speaker 1: also to make sure you know that fucking kids are 746 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: are raised right, learn the basic the like the the 747 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: minimum for respect. I agree with. But that's why I 748 00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: call them the future oppressors of America because within their 749 00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: constructs of their school and their community, they are probably 750 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: the stalwarts of the community. They're upstanding citizens, they're doing 751 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 1: they're modeling all of the behaviors that they're watching. They 752 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,840 Speaker 1: live in a community that has like the protection of 753 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: the cloak of on accountability that Trump has been giving people, 754 00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like to your point, Jack, like, 755 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: that's exactly what people are saying, is they're going around 756 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 1: and being like, well, the president supports me, so why 757 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: should I finally have I finally have to stop pretending 758 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 1: that I don't feel this way. If if Barack Obama 759 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 1: was like, yo, smoke blunts every day, I would be like, 760 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: that's what exactly what Obama said, you know what I mean? 761 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: Like that, that's another other dimension of confidence what to 762 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,440 Speaker 1: do or to have. You know, you can be sanctimonious 763 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: about ships because he's like, oh, well he's on my side, 764 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: is on my side. You know, all these little communities 765 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: that are very hatefield that have been you know, slowly 766 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: burning that oil, that same tallow that they you know 767 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 1: killed a while ago, are now pouring vats of it 768 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: onto it because they can and nobody is stopping that, 769 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But to Jared's point, that's 770 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,719 Speaker 1: the sad part about how we talk about it in 771 00:39:56,760 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: the media. What we amplify the stories that we how 772 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 1: the spin that people forget how much money is going 773 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: on behind that, right, And to your point, you know, 774 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: I'm with you, Miles where it's like at some point, 775 00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 1: like these kids are just kids, and I always hope that, 776 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 1: you know, instead of getting docks or like death threats 777 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,240 Speaker 1: or whatever, that this could just be a teachable moment. 778 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: But we're seeing like the reaction here was not to 779 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 1: have a teachable moment. The reaction was to hire a 780 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: PR firm and run a media operation that they're using 781 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:34,399 Speaker 1: to just bludgeon reporters over the head and gaslight them entirely. Yeah, 782 00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 1: and let him go on today's show and be like, 783 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: I'm not sorry. I'm sorry that people are upset. I'm 784 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: sorry that it could have gone a different way. Hindsight, 785 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,239 Speaker 1: I was standing my ground. It's like, and he looked 786 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: man like. He looks so like lawyers ran through all 787 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,280 Speaker 1: the words he can and can't use the ship. But again, 788 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: this is where you know, when this kind of story 789 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: now enters culture war territory, that's when all this ship 790 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: mobilizes around it and we get a situation like this. 791 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 1: So right, and just speaking of the parents, there was 792 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 1: a mother of one of the boys who wrote to 793 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,399 Speaker 1: heavy dot com and was like, it was shameful. Did 794 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: you witness the black Muslims yelling profanities and videotaping to 795 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 1: get something to further your narrative of hatred? So we 796 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: we see where their true colors lie. The black man 797 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,600 Speaker 1: turned the black is real lights into the black were 798 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,680 Speaker 1: already a problematic group. I mean, nobody's yeah, no, nobody's 799 00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,520 Speaker 1: like yeah, yeah, but they're just like yeah, no Muslims, 800 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: you know, I word buzz word, black mother. We love 801 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: fighting against that ship. They're trying to turn that ship 802 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:39,440 Speaker 1: into their crusades. But yeah, again, you know, it's important 803 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,279 Speaker 1: to look where everybody's empathies going because it's you know, 804 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: we've shown in the last year things happen when you're 805 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: just a white teenager. We can forget about it, you know, 806 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: Breck Havanon just like these beers and we can just 807 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: act like, you know, there's a youthful transgression. But you know, 808 00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:57,920 Speaker 1: this is the states of things right, all right? Jared 809 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 1: and uh, We're gonna have to have you back on 810 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: to discuss the Q and On stuff because I mean, 811 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: I'm very curious as to what people who believe that 812 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is teaming up with Mueller to play this 813 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: long game to put Obama and Clinton and jail. Yeah, 814 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 1: I'm curious how they're like bending their mind around that. 815 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: And that's something I know you keep up with. Yeah, 816 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,359 Speaker 1: I mean, believing in this conspiracy theory to begin with 817 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: already takes a lot of you know, mental gymnastics that 818 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: someone has to put themselves through. But as more news about, 819 00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:37,440 Speaker 1: you know, the Mueller probe is coming out by the day, 820 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 1: and you know, Rudy Giuliani is getting on TV and 821 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: admitting that he just loves to do crimes. You know, 822 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: this community is getting very it's getting a little weird, 823 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,359 Speaker 1: and it was already weird to start. So if you think, 824 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: if you think, like what's weird for the weirdos, that's 825 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: sort of where it's at. Um. But something I've been 826 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 1: watching and track keen uh. They currently are floating around 827 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: this theory that Ruth Bader Ginsberg, who has missed a 828 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: few days on the Supreme Court for health reasons, has 829 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 1: already died in that Democrats are currently seeking out a 830 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: body double to stand in for her. So it's like 831 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:22,400 Speaker 1: that movie Dave Right Sigourney Weaver. Yeah, that's what I 832 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: thought that was, yo, I don't know. I remember he 833 00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 1: had those robot arms and he said, I once caught 834 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: a fish this big and it was like forty ft across. 835 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:33,840 Speaker 1: All right, well, Jared, thank you man. We're gonna have 836 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: to have you back for that little Q update later on, 837 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 1: but yeah, we appreciate you with that for that little 838 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 1: update at tease. All right, we're gonna take a quick break. 839 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 1: We'll be right back, and we're back, and just a 840 00:43:56,440 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 1: couple stories from Trump World to check and on. So 841 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 1: Trump's response to Nancy Pelosi on the State of the Union. 842 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 1: You know, she said that there are security concerns. You know, 843 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:13,560 Speaker 1: people speculate she was being a little trollish, but there 844 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 1: are obviously security concerns when you have what is the 845 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,799 Speaker 1: five most powerful people, the first five people in line 846 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:24,800 Speaker 1: for the presidency and government. Basically you have the Supreme Court, 847 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 1: you have the Joint Chiefs, and then keep for Sutherland 848 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 1: in some room across just keep us safe. Big comical 849 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: clock just taking away right exactly exactly. But so Trump's 850 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 1: response to her was just so funny to me because 851 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,880 Speaker 1: so he shot back, there are no security concerns regarding 852 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,799 Speaker 1: the state of the Union address. Therefore, I will be 853 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: honoring your invitation and fulfilling my constitutional duty to deliver 854 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:53,959 Speaker 1: the important information to people in Congress. It's just it's 855 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: such a there are no secure It's such a small 856 00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,879 Speaker 1: thing because, Okay, the way any professional person, anyone who 857 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 1: knows like just how logic works, would be like, we 858 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 1: recognize the immense importance of the state of the Union 859 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: and the security challenges they're in, and like we are 860 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: working to make sure it's safe. To just come back 861 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 1: and say there are no security, no security concerns at 862 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,759 Speaker 1: all the White House regarding the state of the Union. 863 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: Now take that, Pelosi, there are no security, because it's 864 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,399 Speaker 1: what else you got. It's just such next level, Like 865 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 1: it's a good example of you know why people think 866 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:36,359 Speaker 1: he's playing four D chess because I mean he's not. 867 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: But it's like it's effective because it just is so exasperating, 868 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: so throws you off. You're you're just like, what the 869 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: fund do you mean there are no security? I think 870 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: by saying something that's plainly not true, Right, it's like 871 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,440 Speaker 1: playing chest with somebody and their move is just to 872 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 1: wipe your pieces off. They're like, this is actually four 873 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: D chest and you're like, chest you know what you're doing. Yeah, 874 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 1: you don't even understand how chess bashed my ship off 875 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 1: the board. Okay, Apparently Pelosi has responded and been like, well, 876 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: you can't do it in Congress. So there's some back 877 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 1: and forth taking place on that. So he's going to 878 00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 1: do a State of the Union from somewhere, maybe coming 879 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 1: in Catholic well ship. I mean, I know this is 880 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 1: an important thing, and I know we want to but 881 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,400 Speaker 1: like he's just gonna say a bunch of things that 882 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 1: we don't fucking care about. He's not. He's gonna be 883 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 1: like everything's great. McDonald's is wonderful. It's bacon. Did you 884 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,399 Speaker 1: know that there's a bacon? He should have it at 885 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: Bacon hour? Like if you you know what I mean, 886 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,680 Speaker 1: Like every and now everyone forget about these children that 887 00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,839 Speaker 1: we've killed, about all of our problems. Everybody gets bacon, 888 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: Like do you guys hear about bacon? God? Well, it's 889 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: actually it's what Stephen Miller is gonna write about immigrants. 890 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 1: It's really what I say to the Union is it's 891 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: not even Trump. It's just gonna be true crime, like 892 00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:56,480 Speaker 1: just stories in great detail about murders. Remember the last one. 893 00:46:56,680 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 1: It's just the eight minutes. I called it Donald Trump's 894 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 1: ad menagerie of villainous immigrants when he was like, now 895 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,080 Speaker 1: look at this. Behold a family whose child was taken 896 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,360 Speaker 1: by m S thirteen. Yes, it's important to keep in mind, guys, 897 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,880 Speaker 1: that immigrants commit crime at a far lower rate than 898 00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:21,800 Speaker 1: native born Americans, up white males and red hats. Another 899 00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: story from inside the halls of power at the Trump 900 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: administration is they're apparently frustrated with Rudy Giuliana's performance on 901 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 1: these morning shows when he's going on. And I even 902 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,480 Speaker 1: said a couple of days ago, like when we were 903 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,319 Speaker 1: watching the clips, I was like, he's drunk, right like that, 904 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:42,680 Speaker 1: Like he just looks drunk, he's acting drunk, his mind 905 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: is working like that of a drunk person when you 906 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 1: slouch in a TV interview. Your Yeah, And apparently they 907 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 1: have the same concerns because, you know, some people have 908 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 1: speculated that it's by design he's going on and just 909 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,359 Speaker 1: like throwing all this crazy shit out there and then 910 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: retracting it so that it softens the blow for worst 911 00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 1: news they know is dropping later on. But it turns 912 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: out that the Trump administration is just like, man, what 913 00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:10,960 Speaker 1: the funk is this guy doing? When we're saying, wait, 914 00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 1: what is he doing? There saying wait, what is he doing? 915 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 1: At the same time everyone wait, wait, what's he just 916 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,839 Speaker 1: admit that we were talking about the Trump tower deal 917 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: in Moscow up until November and the Daily Mail, which 918 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: we've admitted as a garbage tabloid, it usually actually has 919 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 1: a right word lean. But it's added to my existing 920 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:34,399 Speaker 1: suspicions about his drinking by saying that basically there are 921 00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 1: people in the administration who are concerned he's going on 922 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 1: the show's drunk. My suspicions aren't based on nothing. He 923 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: said before that he can't remember if he had a 924 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: couple of drinks before or after going on, has been 925 00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 1: spotted drinking at his favorite cigar bar before appearing on 926 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 1: TV later that day, and reportedly didn't get brought on 927 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,919 Speaker 1: by Trump early on in his administration, like after the 928 00:48:57,960 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 1: initial transition, because Trump and you know, Pence were worried 929 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,399 Speaker 1: he was drinking too much, and even other journalists were like, 930 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: I got a weird call late at night from Rudy 931 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 1: Giuliani and he was drunk, and like they'll put out stories. 932 00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 1: So this is like a very common theme with with 933 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,799 Speaker 1: the old mayor, Wow America's mayor. I think I'm here 934 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:23,000 Speaker 1: for it, Like he's a mess. Yeah, I like that 935 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 1: comes because you gotta think about like white people drink 936 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 1: right outside of just like alcoholism, right like it starts 937 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 1: somewhere and it comes from somewhere, and you think that 938 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 1: like alcohol is an escape when you're desperate, when everything 939 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:37,279 Speaker 1: becomes so unmanageable, you have to put like like a 940 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,799 Speaker 1: veil over yourself in order to like walk through.

And I wonder if it's 979 00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 1: it must be that he just he hasn't been relevant 980 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: as the two thousand what eight primarians to become president, 981 00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,320 Speaker 1: So I guess maybe that's what was going on. Yeah, 982 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 1: or maybe he thinks this is the road to presidency. Yeah, 983 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 1: He's like, I need to show the American people that 984 00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:37,839 Speaker 1: I am completely in act and I need to show 985 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,480 Speaker 1: them that I'm off my g D rocker. Yeah, and 986 00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm I'm an entertainer. Like this is apparently what they're into. 987 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,080 Speaker 1: That's his drunk equivalent of dropping you're fired. You know, 988 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,880 Speaker 1: it's just like I'm ship faced. You know, it's just 989 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 1: done something. Maybe it's a mosque. There's no plans though, 990 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: and that's that that's the thing. Just everybody's acting that 991 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 1: there is there wasn't. Most people are really bad acting drunk. 992 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: Miles is really good. You know, you live how you live, dude, 993 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 1: It's spend enough time around drunk people. And finally, I 994 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: want to talk about AOCS tax plan, just because there 995 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 1: are three stories. The three top stories if you google 996 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 1: AOC sevent tax on people making ten million dollars are 997 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 1: over the top three stories are from Bloomberg, Forbes, and 998 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,680 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal. Uh, and they're the case the 999 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 1: case against Alexxandrea Cassio Cortez sevent tax rate, a seventy 1000 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 1: percent income tax rate for the super rich. There may 1001 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: be a better way, and then the crippling cost of 1002 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:53,840 Speaker 1: seventy tax rates. So it's just worth noting here that 1003 00:52:54,480 --> 00:53:01,080 Speaker 1: there is support among registered voters for this idea fortent 1004 00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 1: among Republicans. This is a very popular ideal among people 1005 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: who are not being paid by corporations that are named 1006 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 1: after billionaires, like Bloomberg, Forbes, and then I guess Wall Street, 1007 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 1: Mr Wall Street, Gerne. Right, Well, they're just named after 1008 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:22,960 Speaker 1: an industry that only God is making billionaire industry rags 1009 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 1: for the billionaires. Yes. And meanwhile, over in Davos, the 1010 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: Coachella for Billionaires UH is meeting, and everybody's shook about 1011 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 1: this ship. They are really worried about how popular it is, 1012 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: about how much attention AOC is getting. Scott Minord, who 1013 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,360 Speaker 1: is the global Chief Investment Officer for the two d 1014 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: and sixty five billion dollar Goggenheim Partners, said in an 1015 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: interview quote, it's scary by the time we get to 1016 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: the presidential election, this is going to gain more momentum. 1017 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 1: And I think the likelihood that is seventy percent tax 1018 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 1: rate or something like that become policy is actually very real. 1019 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: And AOC just clapped back on Twitter, it's wild that 1020 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,279 Speaker 1: some people are more scared of marginal tax rate than 1021 00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,279 Speaker 1: the fact that of Americans struggle to pay for at 1022 00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 1: least one basic need like food or rent. So yeah, 1023 00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:19,920 Speaker 1: it's just this is something we frequently or I frequently 1024 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,919 Speaker 1: find myself saying when political progress is made that it's like, oh, 1025 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 1: somebody just decided to start telling the truth, for saying 1026 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,520 Speaker 1: the things that are actually representative of what people want. Well, 1027 00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:33,839 Speaker 1: you look at this new wave of politicians who are 1028 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 1: not accepting PAC money, who are doing only small ball, 1029 00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,480 Speaker 1: small donors donations. They don't they are not beholden to 1030 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:44,319 Speaker 1: Wall Street like the last generation of politicians where who 1031 00:54:44,320 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 1: are fine obscuring those numbers and you know, or maybe 1032 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: just being like we need to help working people, but 1033 00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 1: not being like we need a seven percent marginal tax 1034 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: on the highest earners. Yeah, you say vague generalities, but 1035 00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:59,239 Speaker 1: meanwhile you're taking all of your campaign funding from these 1036 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 1: wall streets. And to get I mean, just to give 1037 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 1: you context, like historically the US has had very high 1038 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: tax brackets, like for people like this like Eisenhower's it 1039 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 1: was like percent, you know what I mean. And that 1040 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,320 Speaker 1: also who to thunk it coincides with the time the 1041 00:55:13,320 --> 00:55:15,680 Speaker 1: middle class in America was the strongest. Is when the 1042 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: highest earners are paying their share. And this isn't to 1043 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:21,200 Speaker 1: say seventy of what you you make is tax. It 1044 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: says when you hit ten million dollars, okay, after that 1045 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: we're taxing everything is oh you need you. You're really 1046 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 1: gonna cry about your ten million dollars every right, And 1047 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,399 Speaker 1: then again, that make ten million dollars a year a year, 1048 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I couldn't make ten million 1049 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: dollars if you gave me ten million dollars worth the scratchers, 1050 00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But I'm gonna need you 1051 00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: to think more about your personal potential. If you don't 1052 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: see it. You'll never make that. You know what are 1053 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 1: limiting thoughts, you know what I mean. No, I have 1054 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 1: a lot of resistance around money. As Abraham was saying, 1055 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:53,919 Speaker 1: you know, I'm trying to release those a young smart 1056 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:55,359 Speaker 1: man of color. I just I need you to believe 1057 00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,239 Speaker 1: more in yourself. You're not gonna get that chat. You 1058 00:55:57,480 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 1: look quite passing chest you I just no, you're right, 1059 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:05,879 Speaker 1: You're right. I'm getting that the m and then there's 1060 00:56:06,040 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 1: other sort of man, there are other more mainstream stories 1061 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:14,919 Speaker 1: coming out, like a panel of economists was asked if 1062 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:20,840 Speaker 1: this idea of a tax rate would stimulate the economy 1063 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,399 Speaker 1: without hurting American investment or some shing like that. But 1064 00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:27,359 Speaker 1: the way they worded it suggested that it would be 1065 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 1: for people who made over like the current highest tax bracket, 1066 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: which is SI right, And economists like, yeah, that's probably 1067 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 1: not a great idea. So then people report it like 1068 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,919 Speaker 1: tax rate not so like there's a conspiracy going on here, 1069 00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:47,319 Speaker 1: like American media, American corporations are going to fight with 1070 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,760 Speaker 1: every fiber of their being to shoot this idea down, 1071 00:56:51,040 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 1: and it's going to require somebody with direct access to 1072 00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,760 Speaker 1: American years. Uh, like the Daily Zeitgeist know, like AOC 1073 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:03,160 Speaker 1: to actually just you know, keep communicating the truth despite 1074 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:06,560 Speaker 1: you know what wealthy corporate interests want. Yeah. Or when 1075 00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 1: you think about again a stat that we were trying 1076 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:10,800 Speaker 1: to bring up last week about the richest one percent 1077 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:13,760 Speaker 1: owned fifty percent of the stocks held by American households, 1078 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 1: think about that ship. Of course they don't want the 1079 00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 1: dollars after ten million to be taxed. Yeah, so again 1080 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:24,640 Speaker 1: another miss me with that ship. ANOC security detail needs 1081 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: to be stepped up. Whatever the security. Yes, I know, man, 1082 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 1: the way she's coming for these capitalist nets, you don't 1083 00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,959 Speaker 1: think they're willing to just fucking, I don't know, push 1084 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: her car off. All they could do is dig up 1085 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 1: old college videos so far Yeah, with their shirt off 1086 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:46,080 Speaker 1: and a calculator like what we just made so much money? 1087 00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:51,240 Speaker 1: At this money? I hope it was cracking, yes, But 1088 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: if anything, I mean it's inspiring. Like I am I'm 1089 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 1: my heritage as I am Mexican and I'm Russian. I 1090 00:57:56,320 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 1: openly identify as a Latina. That's just who I am. 1091 00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 1: I was raised by a Mexican mother. For me, I 1092 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,920 Speaker 1: think it's really empowering to see her in office because 1093 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:05,880 Speaker 1: she is speaking about things that traditionally Latina women don't 1094 00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 1: speak about. Traditionally Latina women do kind of hold the 1095 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 1: money in their household for like household expenses, but that 1096 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:14,000 Speaker 1: it's directly given to them from men, right, so, and 1097 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,439 Speaker 1: that's not an unlikely story for most women. I'm speaking 1098 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:18,640 Speaker 1: at women because I'm a woman, but I think fiscal 1099 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:22,439 Speaker 1: responsibility and fiscal health is something that we don't think 1100 00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 1: a lot about. And I think in general, most people 1101 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 1: that are in lower price brackets don't even understand what 1102 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 1: their tax bracket is or what the real impact of 1103 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,680 Speaker 1: that is on their day to day sort of living 1104 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 1: in life, and the idea of creating wealth and having, 1105 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 1: you know, exercising financial health isn't something that we're doing. 1106 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 1: So I'm excited to see her speaking so openly about 1107 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:47,480 Speaker 1: these things because I'm hoping that will continue to inspire 1108 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: people of my generation and younger to be a little 1109 00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 1: bit more aware, if not entirely more aware of the 1110 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:56,600 Speaker 1: power that your money holds, and realizing that there is 1111 00:58:56,760 --> 00:59:00,160 Speaker 1: incredible power and knowing how your money works, know how 1112 00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,880 Speaker 1: much you pay in taxes, knowing how to invest, knowing 1113 00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: how to save, understanding all those words. It's more than 1114 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 1: just going to a financial planner and dropping something off, right, 1115 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,080 Speaker 1: It's about really understanding how to build wealth for you 1116 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 1: in the next generations after and see those opportunities. Yeah, 1117 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 1: it's so important. And honestly, if we're talking about communities 1118 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 1: of color uprising and having more influence, that's what we 1119 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 1: need to do. You know what I mean. We have 1120 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 1: traditionally send money outside of our immediate communities. You know, 1121 00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 1: the amount of time that dollars are made and spent 1122 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,919 Speaker 1: within their communities before they go out to white owned 1123 00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 1: businesses is incredible, you know, So let's be responsible about this. 1124 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 1: Let's try to make less ten million dollar making white people. Yeah, well, 1125 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:42,080 Speaker 1: I think and again her the way she's communicating the 1126 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 1: point is good too, because it's opening people's eye, especially 1127 00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 1: as you say, even Republicans support it because I think 1128 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 1: when you when you sort of take away the obscurity 1129 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 1: of saying tax and say no, if you if you 1130 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: mother making ten million dollars, and then immediately everybody will hell, yeah, yeah, 1131 00:59:57,440 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: go for it at least and then help give me 1132 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 1: some were leaf and my taxes, because I'm sure everybody 1133 01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 1: they always look at their paychecks and you see where 1134 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:07,800 Speaker 1: those deductions go and what you're like where the most 1135 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,040 Speaker 1: people don't realize that, like your tax parket is a 1136 01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 1: combination of things. Most people are getting tax between twenty 1137 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,640 Speaker 1: and of their gross income, you know what I mean, 1138 01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 1: depending upon where you're at, if you're married, if you 1139 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:20,439 Speaker 1: have kids, what your deductions are. So it's like more 1140 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 1: is a lot, but it's not that much more in 1141 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 1: comparison to how much more they're making. Someone's making five 1142 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,880 Speaker 1: times more than you. Yeah, and I mean with regards 1143 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 1: to the ten million tax bracket. You know, those generally 1144 01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 1: aren't people who are receiving paychecks that equal out to 1145 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 1: ten million dollars a year. They're coming in and various 1146 01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 1: ways where they're able to find tax loopholes and they're 1147 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 1: able to afford you know, lawyers and tax attorneys who 1148 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 1: are able to just you know, find ways to evade taxes, 1149 01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 1: shell game it, Yeah, shell game the ship out of it. 1150 01:00:56,520 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 1: And so it's much more likely in that case, if 1151 01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: you're if you get to ten million taxabil income, it's 1152 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 1: much more likely that your take home is way way 1153 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 1: way higher.

Yes, 1181 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 1: it was so She basically said, you know, a friend 1182 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:38,360 Speaker 1: of mine, uh saw me holding a baby and said, oh, Marcella, 1183 01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 1: you look good holding that baby.
