Two men just trying to do their job 7 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 4: or are we men? That might be the very sort 8 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 4: of thing the Supreme Court's trying to decide day what 9 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 4: Welcome to another live episode of the Armstrong He Gangs Show. 10 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 4: That would explain why Russ That's why sot of my 11 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 4: r was in my bathroom last night demanding I'd dropped 12 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 4: my drawers. 13 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 5: Well, that would be the opposite of what's gonna happen. 14 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 5: It's got nothing to do with your genitalia or does 15 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,919 Speaker 5: it compare? You know, it depends on how the conversations 16 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 5: go with the Supreme Court today. Oh, today we're under 17 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 5: the tutelage of our general manager. 18 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 4: The poor people of Iran trying to throw overthrow actual oppression. 19 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, God, no kidding. 20 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 5: I was just listening to one international report and they're 21 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 5: thinking was since Iran, the government, the mullas, the scumbags 22 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 5: have turned the Internet back onto much of the country 23 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 5: that they must feel like they've weathered the storm, which 24 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 5: would not be a good sign. Obviously, there's still or 25 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 5: the phone lines. The phone lines have been turned on 26 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 5: for parts of the country. The internet is still off. 27 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 5: Some parts they have internet because of elon starlink that 28 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 5: he's been trying to get in there. Apparently the people 29 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 5: on the ground have been pretty good at making sure 30 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 5: there aren't any the whatever the connectors are on the 31 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 5: ground that you need to have to get the starlink going, 32 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 5: and that's why there hasn't been much Internet. It's like, 33 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 5: you know, Elon was able to drop internet into Ukraine, 34 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 5: he'd had to get the stuff in the sky. Obviously, 35 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 5: the people on the ground in Ukraine had an interest 36 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 5: in trying to keep the Internet going as best they 37 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 5: could as they were being invaded, whereas the people on 38 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 5: the people running the country of Iran don't want starlink 39 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 5: up and running, so they were able to stop a 40 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 5: lot of the ground communication stuff from happening. And so 41 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 5: there hasn't been much Internet for quite a while. And 42 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 5: I imagine the stories that will be coming out of 43 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 5: Iran are going to be gruesome. I was reading one 44 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 5: last night about the number of protesters that just got 45 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 5: shot in the back of the head, standing there with 46 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 5: signs and stacked in piles and then drug off by 47 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 5: the Mullahs. 48 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 2: And all that sort of stuff. 49 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 5: Now, Trump, who had vowed to come to their rescue 50 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 5: if the bad guy started shooting the protesters, is meeting 51 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 5: with all of his advisers today and going to make 52 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 5: some very big decisions whether or not we get involved 53 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 5: militarily and. 54 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 2: To what extent and all that sort of stuff. So 55 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: we'll be taking a look at that. Now, back to 56 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 2: the are Joe and I men or women? 57 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 5: The Supreme Court taking up a couple of cases today 58 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,800 Speaker 5: around the whole trans athlete issue, and that could be fascinating. 59 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 5: I've listened to a whole bunch of different lawyers describe 60 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 5: what they think the arguments are going to be like 61 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 5: and whether or not they're going to get into the 62 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 5: actual stuff of can is gender fluid? Can you decide 63 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,119 Speaker 5: you're a girl one day or a boy one day? 64 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 5: Or They're not going to get into that stuff, at 65 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 5: least on one of the cases. 66 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: And it's going to be more. 67 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 5: About Title nine, Title seven, which is a workplace thing, 68 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 5: and those sorts of things very narrow and whether or 69 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 5: not states have the right to ban this sort of thing. 70 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 2: So we'll talk more about that later. 71 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 4: Well, it strikes me that the question is almost decided 72 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: at the outset if you if you ignore the fact 73 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 4: that Title nine exists because there are men and women 74 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 4: and the question of what is a man and what 75 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 4: is a woman is entirely biological. That's why I don't 76 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 4: use the term biological man or biological woman. It's like 77 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,840 Speaker 4: saying astronomical star. It doesn't make any sense. So if 78 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 4: you just stop at the beginning and say, well, no, no, 79 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:23,559 Speaker 4: there's men, there's women, there's men's sports, there's wim and sports. 80 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,679 Speaker 4: We're done here, that would be the most just ruling. 81 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: I mean, it seems obvious. Do you think there's any chance. 82 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 5: I was watching one legal analysts who said it could 83 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 5: be as narrow as like a state's rights thing. The 84 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 5: states that have banned this do they have the right 85 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 5: to do that, and then determining yes, states do have 86 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 5: the right to do that, which would allow the what 87 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 5: is it twenty eight states that have bands on this 88 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 5: sort of thing to keep their bands, But that wouldn't 89 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 5: do anything for all the states that haven't made a band. 90 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 5: You're blue states who think it's super cool that boys 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 5: are defeating. 92 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 2: Girls in I school sports. 93 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm surprised to hear that argument, being just because 94 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 4: Title nine. If indeed the ruling rests on Title nine, 95 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 4: it's federal and so it doesn't really matter what the 96 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 4: states think, although we have reached the limit of my 97 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 4: almost went to law school knowledge of that topic. 98 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 5: So well, there are two cases, so I don't know 99 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 5: which one they were talking about. Their two cases are 100 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 5: gonna be looked at today. 101 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: Now. I just heard that. 102 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 5: The girl boy in the Idaho case has been trying 103 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 5: to get out of it now for quite some time, saying, 104 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 5: you know, I no longer am interested in pursuing this, 105 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 5: but the. 106 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: Well, partly because it's turned their lives into a living hell. 107 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure switch is too bad. 108 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 5: I don't want that for anybody. I'm sure it has. 109 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 5: And that's the other problem. You run into the two 110 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 5: of this, at least in terms of criticizing it as 111 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 5: you're dealing with children. Well, in fact, our opening clip 112 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 5: has to do with that. Let's start the show officially. 113 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 5: We'll hear from one of the children involved, and you 114 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 5: can't blame children for going down the road they went down. Really, 115 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 5: I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this it is Tuesday, 116 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 5: January thirteenth. They are twenty where I'm strong in getting 117 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 5: we approve of this program. Okay, then let's beget officially 118 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 5: according to FCC rules of regulations. 119 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: Here we go at Mark. I wish these. 120 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 6: People would educate themselves, just so they would know that 121 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 6: I'm just there to have a good time, that's it. 122 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 6: But it just it hurts sometimes, like it gets to 123 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 6: me sometimes, but I try to I try to brush 124 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 6: it off. 125 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 5: So that's a young person born with male genitalia who 126 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 5: decided in third grade. I believe, I'm sure are parents 127 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 5: urging that they were a girl and making the case that, look, 128 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 5: I'm just trying to have fun, so you need to 129 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 5: educate yourself. 130 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 2: No, that's not that's not the issue here. 131 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 4: That was very silly and completely irrelevant in the world's 132 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 4: words of a child and the words of a child, right, 133 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 4: And although I gotta believe the parents think that makes sense, 134 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 4: or they would talk to their kids. Well yeah, mom 135 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 4: was sitting alongside a child there nodding knowingly. Yeah, Well, 136 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,159 Speaker 4: I just want to have fun. Oh okay, great, never 137 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 4: mind that. 138 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 5: So aside from the craziness of people with male bodies 139 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 5: defeating girls in high school sports. Aside from that, the 140 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 5: girls that you're playing kids, they just want to have 141 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 5: fun too, you see. 142 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 2: So that's where the rubber meets the road. I know. 143 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 4: It's an argument so idiotic. I can't even, like inhale 144 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 4: deeply enough to counter it. 145 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: See. 146 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 5: Do you feel like this is going to get into 147 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 5: because I watched some other legal analysts said that, no, 148 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 5: it's going to get into the full is it a 149 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 5: malleable thing, whether you're a man or a woman, They're going. 150 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: To get into the signs of it. Do you think 151 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 2: it's going to go down that road? 152 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 4: I think it almost has to, yeah, because that is 153 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,080 Speaker 4: the specific argument of the plaintiffs, is that you can 154 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 4: change your sex and or that a youth who has 155 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 4: not gone through male puberty has no significant advantage. 156 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: But that's been moved over and over again. 157 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 5: Man, if it goes down that road, I would love 158 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 5: to listen to these arguments. 159 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: I'd be fairly too. I can't wait. 160 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 5: That sounds very entertaining, deed, So I also I took 161 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 5: in a lot of legal landlists, and you know they 162 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 5: all have a different opinion, and they're often wrong, but 163 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 5: one saying the Supreme Court is feeling much more comfortable 164 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 5: getting into this issue in twenty twenty six than they 165 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 5: were the last time it came up in twenty twenty 166 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 5: when you know the wind was blowing the other direction 167 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 5: nationally right, and the wind of being terrorized, and any 168 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 5: anti trans ruling would have been explosive, whereas I don't 169 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 5: think it would be now, And multiple polls showing it 170 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 5: is a seventy thirty issue against these athletes being trans, 171 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 5: athletes being able to participate in sports, and I have 172 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 5: a feeling that if the coast was clear, it'd be 173 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 5: closer to ninety ten. 174 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 2: I would agree. I would agree. 175 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 4: And again, one of the reasons I don't use the 176 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 4: term biological mail or biological female is that that grants 177 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 4: too much ground to the other side. It states that 178 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 4: there's another standard, and there's not as applied. 179 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 2: To this specific question. 180 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 4: If some dude wants to present as a woman and 181 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 4: get hormones or whatever and show up to work and 182 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 4: address that's fine, just do your job. 183 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 2: I have no objection to that. 184 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: It does not affect me in any way, or my 185 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 4: children or my kids that I'm coaching, for instance, but 186 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 4: on the field of play specifically, Yes, it matters. 187 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 2: It matters deeply, end of question. 188 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 5: If I'm I think if we have any trans listeners, 189 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 5: maybe you could weigh on this way on in this 190 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 5: I feel like, if I'm a trans adult, I want 191 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 5: this whole high school sports thing to go away. Yeah, 192 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 5: I see what you mean, because you know I'm doing 193 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 5: my thing and I don't. I don't want this to 194 00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 5: be the battle lines, all right, It's got nothing to 195 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 5: do with what I'm doing with my life. 196 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: Well, all right, it's. 197 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 4: Not nearly as defensible as like every other question, which 198 00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 4: is you know, I'm not hardcore about you want to 199 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 4: present as a woman to show up to work. That's 200 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 4: just it's not that important to me. This is different. 201 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,599 Speaker 4: You're right, that's a good point. 202 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 5: Your thing of when people make bad arguments, it's not 203 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 5: because they're holding back their good arguments. 204 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, keeping them safe for Christmas. 205 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, And surely Pepper had been coached to some extent 206 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 5: on how to handle this and interviews. And if the 207 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 5: best argument is I'm just there to have fun, people 208 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 5: need to educate themselves, I'm just there to have fun. 209 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: Well, that ain't gonna fly with the justices. Yeah, no kidding.

I mean, you're getting into the question 213 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 4: of is there such thing as a man or a woman? 214 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 4: Which lots of people, you know, professors and writers, the 215 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 4: New York Times and whatnot, believe there isn't such a. 216 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: Science man and woman, and nobody else believes that. 217 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 4: It's a tiny percentage of loud activists who have a 218 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 4: disproportionate to megaphone. I got a bit of a this 219 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 4: is Christmas feeling of we might finally get this settled 220 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 4: at the highest level and be able to go on 221 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 4: from this issue.

And there 237 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 4: are statistics, there are studies that show that you do. 238 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 2: But you're right, that would be incredibly frustrating.

By the way, So Trump's trying to 431 00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 5: force out the chair of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell. 432 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: Who he's called an idiot and like talking to a chair. 433 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 4: And is investigating him over So Powell's redoing his office 434 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 4: and everything like that, and the Trump administration is trying 435 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 4: to claim that he broke federal law by remodeling his 436 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 4: office without going through the proper papers, like two whole buildings, 437 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 4: and it's there have been cost overruns whatever. 438 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 5: Trump hates Powell and is looking for a reason to 439 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 5: drive him out. Clearly, this is from the Wall Street 440 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 5: Journal today, and as you pointed out a few minutes ago, 441 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 5: a lot of major Republicans have said come out and 442 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 5: said no, no, no, no, no, we ain't doing this. 443 00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 2: This ain't good. 444 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 5: The Wall Street Journal suggests that the plan is going 445 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 5: to be to make a deal with Powell, will drop 446 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 5: the charges if you agree to resign, and that Powell 447 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 5: might agree to that. 448 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:48,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. 449 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 5: That video he put out yesterday which we didn't play, 450 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 5: he was he was standing pretty strong, but I ain't 451 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 5: going nowhere. 452 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well. 453 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,399 Speaker 4: The Wall Street Journal editorial board, also quoting some pretty 454 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 4: prominent repats, called it the dumbest episode of lawfare they've 455 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 4: ever seen. And you know, anybody with any sense, and god, 456 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 4: dang it, this is where Trump makes me insane. Anybody 457 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 4: with any sense knows that you can't have politicians involved 458 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 4: with interest rates because they are always always going to 459 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 4: go for maximum growth and inflationary pressure because they like 460 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 4: the numbers rise and the short term thinking third world 461 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 4: d It's a terrible idea. Yeah, the politicians will always 462 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 4: go with the short term, thinking what's going to be 463 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 4: good for the next election. Yeah, exactly, exactly, no matter 464 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 4: what damage it causes. You can see it in the 465 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 4: deficit spending. That's that is their audition. They failed the audition, 466 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 4: you don't get to be in charge of interest rates. 467 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 5: It could work, though. One thing I had not caught 468 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 5: on to until a couple of years ago. With all 469 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 5: this lawfare that happens at so many different levels in government, 470 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 5: you can actually get spent into poverty. Did you end 471 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 5: up having to go out and get lawyers and stuff 472 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 5: like that and pay for them? And that's that's rough, 473 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 5: and that's the real threat. Even if you're like gonna, 474 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 5: you might have spend the next two years. And I've 475 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 5: been paying lawyers for a legal situation for many years. 476 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 5: It adds up really really fast. So it's not impossible 477 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 5: to pow. I mean, he put out a video yesterday. 478 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,879 Speaker 5: We should play some of it where he is pretty 479 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 5: resolved to stay. 480 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 2: In office and how he's innocent and everything like that. 481 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 4: But he can always go on MSNBC and get a 482 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 4: GoFundMe started and probably end up making a profit, so 483 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 4: he'll be fine. 484 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 2: Or he could. 485 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 5: I'm amazed more people haven't decided. Well, a lot of 486 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 5: people have Ben Sas, who's dying of cancer right now. 487 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:34,919 Speaker 5: A lot of other of my favorite politicians have decided. 488 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,159 Speaker 5: You know, what we're going through a weird time in 489 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 5: this country. I ain't gonna be part of it. I'm 490 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 5: gonna go to the private sector. You all knock yourselves out. 491 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 2: I'm done. He could easily see a Jerome Powell deciding. Man, yeah, 492 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: he's done in May anyway. But yeah, who knows, who knows. 493 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 4: We got a couple of minutes, let's do a little 494 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 4: bingo bango bongo, and I'm gonna stay away from most 495 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 4: of the serious stuff I have.

They're not releasing a name or a motive 498 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 4: for some reason. 499 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 2: The motive it actually burnt down. 500 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:20,439 Speaker 4: Oh it's well, the entire interior is gutted. It'll be 501 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 4: a very very long time you've got. That's enough to 502 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 4: be burnt down. And it was the oldest synagogue west 503 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 4: of the something or other. I mean, it's from the 504 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 4: eighteen hundreds.

Interestingly, his playbook's 680 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 4: been around for at least two thousand years. The apostle 681 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 4: Paul wrote about it in two Timothy, and he gives 682 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 4: the verses and everything. Before he gets to verses six 683 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 4: and seventy, he talks about multiple vices such as ungratefulness, 684 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 4: slanders blah blah, reckless haters of good that he says, 685 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 4: avoid such people, for among them are those who make 686 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 4: their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with 687 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 4: sins and swayed by various impulses, who will listen to 688 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 4: anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth. 689 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 5: Wow, I am unaware of that. 690 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 2: That is interesting. I gotta look that up. 691 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, finding finding meaning in the life outside of politics 692 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 4: is the real reality, not LARPing. LARPing is just another addiction. 693 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 4: Oh interesting, man. 694 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 5: NFNBC is still going hard with the this was cold 695 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 5: blooded murder despite more videos coming out. 696 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, well, people see what they want to see. 697 00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 4: And then we got this note in fairness.

Sorry, Katie, stop having 703 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 4: segments where you discuss purely feminine issues like liberal women 704 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 4: depressed about the future. Given that the vast majority of 705 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 4: Trump supporters are men, did it ever cross your mind that, 706 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 4: being a Trump supporter or MAGA right leading, why place 707 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 4: you dead center in your own echo chamber that extends 708 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 4: beyond politics.

These new 721 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 4: exciting philosophies of yours have led to misery, nothing but misery. 722 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 2: But we'll go into it later. It's like I said, 723 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: it's long and we'll talk about it. She could have been. 724 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 5: She could be one of the characters in the movie 725 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,919 Speaker 5: One Battle after another, like broadly drawn, over the top, 726 00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,720 Speaker 5: ridiculous characters who buy into that stuff. 727 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 4: Then you have this one from Ryan and Houston, Dear 728 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 4: cold Warrior and old fancy Jack. Will I ever see 729 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 4: the change of the two parties in my lifetime? As 730 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:43,800 Speaker 4: the saying goes, if I had two buckets and wished 731 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 4: into one and defecated in the other, we can see 732 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 4: which fills up first. 733 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,760 Speaker 2: The fact is that's a charming saying. Was that Plato? 734 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 4: That's exactly the right word charming. The fact is I'm 735 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 4: a ninety five percent never Trumpet. I think he's a 736 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,319 Speaker 4: horrible person, a bad president. The fact that not one 737 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 4: hundred percent a never Trumper is that the Democrats ran 738 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 4: senile man, then a dim wit backed up by a 739 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 4: hack fraud grifter. I could want another choice, but it 740 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 4: was either going to be Trump or Harris. I don't 741 00:36:10,120 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 4: see it changing. 742 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 2: I don't see it changing either. Oof. Yeah. 743 00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,600 Speaker 5: The Gallup news that came out yesterday that now half 744 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 5: of Americans identify as independent because they don't want to 745 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 5: call themselves a Republican or Democrat anymore. So the two 746 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 5: parties arend about twenty seven percent each. Will a third 747 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 5: party come out of that is the question, and the 748 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 5: answer is probably no. 749 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:34,280 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty
