1 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:09,559 Speaker 1: Hey guys, friends, Normy's countrymen. Here we are on Normally, 2 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: the show with normal it takes for when the news 3 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: gets weird. I'm Mary calthery. 4 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: Ham and I'm Carol Markowitz. The news is once again weird, 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 2: Mary Catherine. The San Diego Board. 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 3: Of Supervisors voted. 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 2: Three to one yesterday to restrict the use of county 8 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 2: resources for federal immigration enforcement. And from what I understand, 9 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: that means that they are welcoming illegal immigrants. They're not 10 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: going to help the federal government deal with the legal immigrants, 11 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: even if those illegal immigrants are criminals, and they're going 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 2: to be standing in ICE's way as they try to 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 2: fix the problem. 14 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: Right. And it's it's a three person board that voted 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: this way, and I believe they seem similarly, and there's 16 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: one Republican. And the thing is, I truly don't understand this. 17 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 1: I often try not to just describe absolutely nuts to 18 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,320 Speaker 1: people's decision making, but this is something that will protect 19 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: people who are accused or apprehended of violent crimes a rape, 20 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: of assaults. And they're just like, no, not only are 21 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 1: we not going to help, we're like welcoming this. This 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: is putting out a welcome mat for this specific type 23 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 1: of offender. And it does nothing for the people you 24 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,039 Speaker 1: are charged with protecting except possibly hurt them and make 25 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: them pay money to keep people there. 26 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and another thing is that California swung read this time. 27 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 3: In a big way. Obviously it's still a super blue. 28 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 2: State, but San Diego County swung red. And it's like 29 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: they didn't understand what people meant with their votes. And 30 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: I understand again, it's not the majority. Okay, you could say, oh, 31 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: the majority still wants blue policies, but you can't look 32 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: at to move to the right across the country towards 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 2: Trump and in California and in San Diego County and 34 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: say no, we're going to keep doing things the way we've. 35 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 3: Been doing things. It's totally fine. 36 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: The San Diego County sheriff, who has something to say 37 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: about this, as Kelly Martinez announced. According to Bill Malusian, 38 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: who's a great reporter at Fox and thanks to him 39 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: for doing all the immigration and border reporting for years. 40 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: She announces she will not adhere to the super sanctuary policy, 41 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 1: which is what they dubbed this approved by the San 42 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: Diego County Board of the Supervisors today pointing out that 43 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: she is an independently elected official, the board does not 44 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: set policy for her office, and she has exclusive authority 45 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: over county jails. She adds that California state law is 46 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: clear on when local law enforcement can cooperate with ICE, 47 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 1: and that there is no loophole in the law as 48 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: claimed by Nora Vargas, the Democrat chair of the San 49 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: Diego County Supervisors who introduced the policy. So it's nice 50 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: to see the coequal folks stick up for themselves and 51 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: claim their power, which is what Martinez seems to be 52 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: doing here. 53 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't understand it either. 54 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: I think that Okay, let's say you are extremely soft 55 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 2: on immigration. You think that borders are nonsense or anything 56 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 2: like that. Fine, I know I've heard this from from 57 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: libertarians and from leftists. Okay, most people aren't like that. 58 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 2: Most people believe in some sort of border. What they're 59 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 2: saying here is even the criminals, even the people who 60 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: came in illegally and went on to commit another crime, Still, 61 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,399 Speaker 2: we're not going to kick those people out. 62 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: Yes, that's where. 63 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 2: I think they're losing the majority of people. I don't 64 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: think that there are many defenders of No, let's keep 65 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: illegal immigrant criminals in our country, and I don't know 66 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: who this vote is really speaking to because of that. 67 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: Well, there's a headline from the Atlantic Apparently the San 68 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: Diego Democrats didn't get the memo. Why Democrats got the 69 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: politics of immigrations so wrong for so long, they spent 70 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: more than a decade left on the issue to win 71 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: Latino votes. It may have cost them the White House twice. 72 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: And not only that, but as we've talked about, it's 73 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: costing them Latino votes right. Steve Kornaki revealed who's a 74 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: numbers guy NBC who's really good at delving into the 75 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: nitty gritty of exit polling and all the results. He 76 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: looked to New Jersey to all the cities or towns 77 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: where Hispanics account for more than seventy percent of the 78 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: population and found that in each of them, the margin 79 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: moved at least twenty points in Trump's direction compared to 80 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. This is not something you can just write 81 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 1: off as fake or whatever the new word they're using 82 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,799 Speaker 1: is what was the one they used on the Biden videos. 83 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: What was the one they came up with for that white. 84 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 3: Adjacent's I don't know that's another word, cheap fakes. 85 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: This is not a cheap ing phenomenon. This is not 86 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: white adjacent c this is not white supremacy. This is 87 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: people reacting to not being protected by their governments and 88 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: feeling like there is chaos at the least right. 89 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: So Axios had a whole thing also where California and 90 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: Latinos are specifically moving to the right, and they're really 91 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 2: affecting change there. They're credited with several Republican House seats. 92 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just you're ignoring the. 93 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 2: Big picture here at the peril of your party. Fine, 94 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 2: you want to keep doing these crazy things, keep doing them. 95 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to be electorally advantageous to 96 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,919 Speaker 2: the Democrats in the long run. They can maybe in 97 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: the short run keep this. 98 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 3: Kind of thing up. 99 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: But you know, like we said last time, there's a 100 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: vibe shift. The vibe shift has arrived. People have had 101 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 2: enough of the nonsense. 102 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: Well, and when Trump talked about it to Kristin Walker 103 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: of NBC for Meet the Press, he did like a 104 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 1: seventy five minute sit down with her, and she asked 105 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: him about immigration. Look, this is something that very clearly 106 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: he ran on, very clearly. People knew what they were getting, 107 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: and she says, there, you know, are you really going 108 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: to do the mass deportation? And he said what most 109 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: Americans agree with, Well, we're going to start with the 110 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: criminals and then we're going to get to the rest 111 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: of it. And then he even was like added the 112 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 1: idea that there could be exemptions for dreamers, people who 113 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: came here not of their. 114 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 3: Trump almost did that last time. 115 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,359 Speaker 1: Yes, so yeah, I think she was expecting him to 116 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: sound more apocalyptic and problematic, and in the parts where 117 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: she thought he did, most Americans agree with him, and 118 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: then largely he didn't sound yeah, problematic. 119 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 2: Well, as we've said on this show several times, Donald 120 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 2: Trump is a moderate and anyone who thinks otherwise has 121 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: not been paying attention. He is a moderate, and he 122 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: is even a moderate on the issue of immigration, where 123 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: he's seen as this far out radical. It's not radical 124 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: to say people who. 125 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 3: Enter the country illegally should be removed. 126 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything crazy about that. 127 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 3: I think most Americans would agree with that. So again, 128 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 3: start with the criminals. See where it goes. 129 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,679 Speaker 2: And the arguments from the left are so offensive. 130 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: Like who's going to pick your fruit? Who's going to 131 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 3: clean your toilets? 132 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: Like, I'm sorry, are we really importing an underclass of 133 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: people that are paid less than minimum wage? And you 134 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 2: think this is okay as a liberal if. 135 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: That one doesn't work for me, that argument doesn't work 136 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: for me. 137 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm okay with not doing that. 138 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: Let's not do that. Yeah. Well, and it speaks to 139 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: the arguments of someone like a Josh Holly who makes 140 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: a populist argument that illegal immigration drives down wages for Americans. Yeah, 141 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: and that's something that American voters are very willing to 142 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: listen to. So yeah, I think the more that the 143 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: crazy townships and cities and blue areas fight Trump, especially 144 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: on the jail stuff, the criminal stuff, it's not going 145 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: to go well for them. 146 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,679 Speaker 2: Right, No sex changes for criminal illegal immigrants was Trump's 147 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: whole thing filost exchanges and also maybe you know, kicking 148 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 2: them out. 149 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: By the way, when we talk about people who are 150 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: soft on immigration, I used to be one of them, right. 151 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 3: I don't know that I saw sauced on it, but 152 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 3: I was softer. 153 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: Eactly like I think I was probably more middle of 154 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: the road, a little what they would call squishy. If 155 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 1: you're a if you're a conservative who's a hardliner and immigration, 156 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: and like, look, they turned me into a hard liner. 157 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: I looked at the chaos and was like, nah, nah, 158 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: I project this right. 159 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 2: It just it became too blatant, and and also just 160 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 2: the quantity, the quantity became so insane.

Well, and I think that's part 174 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: of it too, when you start to notice that illegal 175 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: immigrants are getting things that citizens would never get, put 176 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: up at a hotel for months at a time, right 177 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: flown around the country on the dime of the government. 178 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 1: I've never been flown anywhere by the US government. No, 179 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: and many others are One of my least favorite stories 180 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: infamous stories was during COVID there was a story about 181 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: teachers in la public school, teachers who were not teaching 182 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:42,559 Speaker 1: in person in regular schools going to teach at migrant shelters. 183 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 3: Yeah. 184 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: And when people see illegal immigrants being getting better treatment 185 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: than they have gotten right from the public systems they're 186 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 1: paying for, that ticks them off, right. 187 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 3: And look, I'm an immigrant. 188 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: I was a refugee to this country. Let me tell 189 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: you there was absolutely no government dole or anything. 190 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 3: When you got here. 191 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: It was like somebody had to promise to take care 192 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: of you. So if you couldn't take care of yourself, 193 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: you had a sponsor who signed a document saying that 194 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 2: they were going to provide for all of your needs. 195 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 2: And you were not going to get on welfare, you 196 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: were not going to get any kind of funding from 197 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: the government. And that's how it used to work. There 198 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: used to be a process, And that's the thing I 199 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 2: think that most Americans, if they saw an immigration process, 200 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: would be for it. There is no process. It's whoever 201 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 2: cuts in front of the line. You know, one thing, 202 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 2: my mother's sister stayed in Russia. She had already had 203 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 2: a son and grandkids, and she just wasn't leaving with us. 204 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: But she would. 205 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 2: She came to visit one time in my entire life, 206 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 2: and every other time she was denied entry because it 207 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: was the assumption that she would just stay right. She 208 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: had family here, she had opportunity. Why would she go 209 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 2: back to Russia. She wouldn't have. But okay, she couldn't come. 210 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 2: But if she flew to Mexico and walked across the border, 211 00:10:58,280 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 2: come right in, let us. 212 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: Give you some fun. You know. 213 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 2: She died a few years ago, having only visited us 214 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 2: one time ever. And that's what happens when you follow 215 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,439 Speaker 2: the rules. When you don't follow the rules, you get 216 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 2: whatever you want. 217 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 3: Nobody likes. That will be right back on normally. 218 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: You know. It's another thing that nobody likes, at least 219 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: on this show, because we're normal. The glorification of the 220 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: and the drooling over the apprehended suspect in the shooting, 221 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: the execution style shooting of Brian Thompson, the head of 222 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: United Healthcare. That's right. The suspect's name is Luigi Mangioni. 223 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,079 Speaker 1: He seems to having having arrested at a McDonald's in 224 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania and brought into custody. He yelled at reporters nothing 225 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: that sounded like a denial of his involvement, and in 226 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: fact sort of affirmed that the reasons that he might 227 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: have done this. And so I think we can safely 228 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: assume this is the guy. But he's a good looking 229 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:58,479 Speaker 1: young man, right and the I think is okay outpouring 230 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: of fandom for him, The numbers he's racked up on 231 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: social media gross, The just outward drooling over him is 232 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: so gross. And I think this minute from Jimmy Kimmel's show, 233 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to do too much of it because 234 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,000 Speaker 1: I don't want to glorify it either, is indicative of 235 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 1: what we're seeing. And this is where I'd love to 236 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: see a vibe shift away from this. Here we go, so. 237 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 4: Many women and so many men are going nuts over 238 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 4: how good looking this killer is. 239 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 5: And there's a huge wave of horny washing over. 240 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 2: Us right now. 241 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 5: It's like when one of the guys you work with 242 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 5: says he I had a dream. 243 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 3: About you last night. 244 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 4: When it's the FedEx guy with the big muscles and 245 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 4: the rolled up sleeves, You're like, oh, but if it's 246 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 4: the bald it guy wearing crocs with black socks you're 247 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 4: on the phone with HR. 248 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 5: It's kind of that same dynamic our staff today.

Should 291 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 1: be a warning to everyone in the healthcare system. While 292 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 1: she's stressed, quote violence is never the answer, but she 293 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: said the butt is the important part.

No, because they believe 325 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 1: that he's bad. But Luigi Mangiani, we kind of like him. 326 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: That is so warped to me. Yeah, it's insane, It 327 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: really is. 328 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 3: And another point that I think we kind of made 329 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 3: in passing. 330 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 2: But somebody that I follow on ex Byrne Hobart, he's 331 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 2: really really smart, always has good financial takes, but he 332 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 2: tweets taking a glance at United Healthcare Financials. If corporate 333 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,199 Speaker 2: greed equals COEO pay, eliminating it would mean getting about 334 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 2: zero point zero one four percent more healthcare. If it 335 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 2: refers to profits, now we're talking a whole four point 336 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: six percent increase. The guy whose job is to say, 337 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 2: here's how much healthcare you can afford, given how much 338 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 2: a cost and how much money you have, is not 339 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 2: the guy deciding how much a cost literally shooting the messenger. 340 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: It usually goes without saying that you shouldn't celebrate assassinations, 341 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 2: even if you do genuinely dislike the target. But in 342 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 2: this case it's important to add the people's celebrating this 343 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: are enumerate as well as evil. 344 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: Thank you, yes, thank you very much. The other thing 345 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,360 Speaker 1: about this, look, healthcare is complex. One of our issues 346 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 1: is that we've for a long time had a third 347 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:15,439 Speaker 1: payer system, which means no one is enduring the actual costs, 348 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: and so the costs can inflate to such an insane 349 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: degree because no one actually knows what anything costs, right, 350 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 1: which is what happens when you remove things from a 351 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: free market. We've got this weird Frankenstein system. Regardless, healthcare 352 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: is very important. I want people to have care when 353 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:33,199 Speaker 1: they are in dire straits, when they are sick. However, 354 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: this assertion that healthcare is a human right, and I 355 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: know you'll be with me on this, Carol, is an 356 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 1: assertion that you have a right to other people's labor, education, experience, expertise, time, 357 00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: And those things are neither free nor unlimited right. So 358 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: there will be a time at which there is some 359 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 1: sort of control on that. You do not live in 360 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: a world where you can just tap a doctor for free, 361 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: in unlimited quantity anytime you want, because that doctor has 362 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: a family and a life and bills to pay. Yeah. 363 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 3: Period, it is free. 364 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 2: I always say this about people who are like, Oh, 365 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: Canada has free healthcare, UK has free healthcare, France has 366 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,239 Speaker 2: free healthcare. There is no such thing as free. They 367 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,960 Speaker 2: are all paying for it, just in a different way. Also, 368 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: I lived in the UK, I got very sick. Do 369 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: not recommend at all, you know where you want to 370 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 2: be sick America. 371 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: That's why they had different ways of rationing. And it 372 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,439 Speaker 1: comes straight from the government. That's another thing about this. 373 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: Everyone's like pivoting to universal health care. Are you under 374 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: the impression that the government, when totally in charge of healthcare, 375 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: does not ration healthcare right or. 376 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 2: In other ways your taxes won't go up you think 377 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,280 Speaker 2: that you really think that this is going to be free. 378 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 3: I mean, you know that that tweet where they're numerates. 379 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 2: They don't understand how anything works, and they are very 380 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 2: loud about it is. It's embarrassing. How do you not 381 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 2: know that nothing could be free? 382 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:01,159 Speaker 1: One last note, CBS reports again, this is what Twelve 383 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: years after we totally fixed healthcare with the overhaul called Obamacare, 384 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 1: health insurance costs are far out pacing inflation, leaving more 385 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: consumers on the hook each year for thousands of dollars 386 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: in out of pocket expenses. At the same time, some insurers, 387 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 1: rejecting nearly one in five claims that double whammy is 388 00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: leaving Americans paying more for coverage, it's sometimes feeling like 389 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 1: they're getting less in return. Experts say, I'm sure we 390 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: should look in my Argat archives from two thousand and 391 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: nine and find some indication that this might happen. Right, 392 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: The problem's real, but I am skeptical of fixes from 393 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 1: the people who told me they were fixing it last time. 394 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: Absolutely, we're going to take a short break and come 395 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:42,280 Speaker 2: right back with normally. I think you know, people like 396 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 2: when we talk sports. 397 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 3: I think because you know. 398 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: About sports, a little bit. 399 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 2: So do we need to find out who. 400 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 3: Caitlin Clark is or is that where we're going with this. 401 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: We're gonna go to Caitlin Clark. Kaitlin Clark was featured 402 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 1: by Time magazine as Athlete of the Year. I believe 403 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: they just straight up gave her that title. So big deal. 404 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,880 Speaker 1: But she's getting a little bit of backlash because in 405 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: her article, let me give some context, Kaitlin Clark is 406 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: the best basketball player, and she's a BATUEB player. She's 407 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: extremely popular. She thinks extremely white, and she's very white 408 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,000 Speaker 1: or just white, I don't know what. I'm also very white, 409 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: so I feel like I could say that. But she's 410 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: very popular. She brought in huge numbers of people when 411 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: she moved from college to the WNBA fandom, not only 412 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: to college women's basketball, but to the UNBA. Nonetheless, I 413 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: would not say she is beloved by her fellow mates 414 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 1: in the WNBA. There were a lot of incidents this 415 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: season where she was very hard fouled in ways that 416 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 1: went beyond normal tough back. 417 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: And I've seen the videos, and I, you know, to 418 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: say I hate basketball and women's basketball. The fact that 419 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 2: I've seen the videos where she gets chapped really hard, 420 00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 2: really says something. 421 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: It was on normal basketball, and I've played rough basketball 422 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 1: in my past. But she was interviewed and here's what 423 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 1: she had to say about sort of the racial overtones 424 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: of the WNBA and her treatment and the controversy. Clark 425 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: is cognizant of the racial underpinnings of her stardom first 426 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: of all, Like why are there racial underpinnings of her startup? 427 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: She's just successful? Yeah, and she says, I want to 428 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: say I've earned every single thing. But as a white person, 429 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: there is privilege. A lot of those players in the 430 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: league that have been really good have been black players. 431 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: This league has been kind of built on them. The 432 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: more we can appreciate that highlight that talk about that 433 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: and then continue to have brands and companies invest in 434 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: those players that have made this league incredible, I think 435 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: that's very important. I have to continue to try that. 436 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: The more we can elevate black women, that's going to 437 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 1: be a beautiful thing. 438 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 3: It's like, clearly that was written in October. 439 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: Clark missed the memo on the vibe shift. 440 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I use crazy language like that anymore. 441 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: We don't for her. I want to stick up for 442 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: her a little bit, because I feel bad for her 443 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: that she got it from the left while she was 444 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: successful pre October and November of twenty twenty four, and 445 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: then she got it physically on the court, and then 446 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: she got it now she's getting it from the right 447 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: because people are upset that she's said this thing, and 448 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: now listen, I don't think Clark is getting herself any 449 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: credit from anyone by saying this, which is right, if 450 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: you on a practical front, maybe. 451 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 2: Not do this. 452 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: However, I am sympathetic to the idea that she is 453 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,679 Speaker 1: playing in a very hostile environment and she has to 454 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,479 Speaker 1: remain there, so she's trying to find a way to 455 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 1: do that. And I'm sort of impressed that she's kept 456 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: her head about her the way she has, because she's 457 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: a very fierce competitor. I am not nearly as good 458 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,959 Speaker 1: a competitor, but perhaps as fear set times and I 459 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 1: would have lost it like several of those contacts made 460 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: with her. So I think she's trying to figure out 461 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: how to grow up in this league, how to find 462 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 1: a spot, and I hope that the league matures quickly 463 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: to the point where it can like take all the 464 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 1: increased money increased sales, increased Jersey sales, increased endorsement deals 465 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 1: that Clark has brought more graciously. 466 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: That would be nice. Yeah, the problem with what she 467 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 3: said to me is it. 468 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 2: Does ring very walking the line, getting into line. 469 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: You know. 470 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 2: Part of the thing with leftism is it's very conformist 471 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 2: and you have to say certain things, and you have 472 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 2: to say things in certain ways, and you have to 473 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: use the right language. And she's clearly trying to do 474 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 2: that there. I feel sorry for her that she feels 475 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 2: like she has to, but like you said, it's probably 476 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 2: the environment that she's in and she is trying. 477 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,239 Speaker 3: To ingratiate herself into it. 478 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 2: The thing I would say to her if I were 479 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 2: her friend is these are circular firing squads and you're 480 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: never going to win. Somebody always gets shot and it 481 00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:58,919 Speaker 2: might be you and it might not be you. But 482 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 2: saying what they want here is never going to get 483 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: you out of that squad. I mean, just keep dropping 484 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: thirty fright, I mean, just keep doing what you're doing, 485 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 2: and don't say that you were privileged because you're white. 486 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 3: You're privileged because you're really really good. 487 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: She's very good. 488 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: Again, I've heard of you Caitlin Clark, that must mean something. 489 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: It must mean something. Yeah.
