WEBVTT - Where's Your Suit?! 0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.760 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Jetty arm Strong 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:18.200 and Jettie and he Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:26.360 The President has said that in terms of territories and stuff, 0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:28.920 these are things that Zelenski's gonna have to decide on. 0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:30.880 But people that are out there talking what they don't know, 0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:32.960 with all these stupid leaks and things of that nature, 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:34.320 they all want to just sound important. 0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:35.880 They don't know what they're talking about. 0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:39.440 So that was Marco Rubio, Secretary of State and the 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.760 National Security Advisor both. He was on a whole bunch 0:00:42.800 --> 0:00:46.720 of talk shows yesterday, and his main themes were, this 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:53.040 is the very beginning. It's like the opening drive of 0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:56.320 a golf tournament, and you know, we'll go from here. 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.280 You can't come to any conclusions, and then you don't 0:00:59.280 --> 0:00:59.960 have any idea. 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:00.520 What you talking about. 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:02.680 You don't know what we discussed, You don't know what 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:04.480 we're discussing, what our plans are. 0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.000 A lot of the leaks are wrong. That was his 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:11.040 narrative all day long, right, and it's difficult to argue 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.720 with that. As it is. I think a lot of 0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:16.840 us and I include us in that because of the 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:22.640 enormous stakes here, not just the human you know, lives 0:01:22.680 --> 0:01:27.360 in Ukraine and the children being blown apart and making 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:30.960 it safe for dictators to gobble up land by force 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:33.200 in the twenty first century. Blah blah blah. I mean, 0:01:33.280 --> 0:01:37.600 it's there's a lot here. So we're very anxious to 0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:41.560 read tea leaves and want things to go quote unquote 0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:45.560 our way, whichever way that is. But often, in fairness, 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:47.480 there are ups and downs and ins and outs, and 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.120 a lot of it we're not aware of. That's all true. 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:56.720 But if Trump had said anything one thing on the 0:01:56.840 --> 0:01:57.559 side of. 0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.360 Hey, you're the evil SOB who started this and you're 0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:06.760 killing civilians, I mean, anything even close to that, yes, 0:02:07.000 --> 0:02:09.240 at any point, Yes, it. 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.520 Would be easier to believe that it wasn't capitulation. He signed, 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:16.880 He shows every sign of capitulating to putin having been bullied. 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:21.240 He's back down, shows every sign of that. Is that true? 0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:23.560 I don't know. I don't know either. I hope that's 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:24.480 a negotiating thing. 0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:28.240 It's like, uh, I'm gonna take every effort here to 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:36.079 make this is like non uh damaging's wrong word, but uh, 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:36.880 I don't know. 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:38.480 I think I know what you mean. You're just you're 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:41.079 not gonna do anything that puts his guard up. You're 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:44.000 gonna say, oh, that's great, interesting, right, great proposal. Wow, 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.320 Well think about that. Well, we're gonna play some more clips. 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:48.080 I don't know if they include any of these include this, 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:51.320 But Marco kept saying that, kept saying, what about the sanctions? 0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:53.240 What about it? This way? He said, the moment we 0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:53.760 do that. 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.680 The negotiations are over, the moment we hit them hard 0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:59.280 with something, there's still time to do that. But if 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.000 we do that right up front, then we can't get anywhere. 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:03.840 So that that's his argument. I want to I do 0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:04.480 want to say this. 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:08.720 NBC is reporting that Trump did discuss a NATO like 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.840 security guarantee for Ukraine with Zelensky and European leaders over 0:03:12.880 --> 0:03:14.840 the weekend and that that will be some of the 0:03:14.880 --> 0:03:17.640 topics of the conversation to day, a NATO like security 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:21.280 like you know here they were signing a document that 0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:23.600 if that, if he could, if Putin comes back into Ukraine, 0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:26.560 we got your back, that would be a big deal. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.160 Yeah. If I'm Zelensky, I'm like, will this be just 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.680 like the agreement back in the day that said, you'd 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:35.680 ensure our security if we give up our nuclear arms 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:40.080 just like that one. Wow. Cool, I would be saying, yeah, 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.800 how about you get some guys here, like actually stationed 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:46.600 guys here, which otherwise and Great Britain among others. 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:49.040 Maybe talking about that today at the Oval Office with 0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:51.400 Trump because they're all going to be there anyway. Here's 0:03:51.440 --> 0:03:53.680 a little more Mark or Rubio on the Sunday shows. 0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:56.840 Well, I mean you know this, well, how how long 0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:01.280 these kind of diplomatic negotiations often President Trump was telling 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:06.320 European leaders. What was discussed was Putin demanding control of Dunesque, 0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.480 a region in the east that his forces do not 0:04:08.600 --> 0:04:12.840 fully hold, and the UK estimates that taking that full 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:16.039 area could be as long as another four years. Putin 0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:19.839 also is demanding Russian be an official language in Ukraine 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:24.440 and something regarding Russian Orthodox churches. Did the US accept 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:27.000 all of what Putin laid out at that table? 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.479 The United States is not in a position to accept 0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.720 anything or reject anything, because ultimately it's up to the Ukrainians. 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:33.920 They're the ones that Russia has to. 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:34.280 Make peace with. 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:38.280 President said, it's up to the Ukrainians to make these conditions. Now, 0:04:38.320 --> 0:04:40.760 there were some concepts and ideas discussed that we know 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.080 the Ukrainians can be very supportive of in that meeting. 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:45.359 I don't think it's we're not going to negotiate this 0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:47.359 in the media. I understand that everybody wants to know 0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:49.960 what happened. But ultimately there are things that were discussed 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:52.760 as part of this meeting that are potentials for breakthroughs, 0:04:52.760 --> 0:04:55.480 that are potentials for progress. We'll be discussing that more 0:04:55.520 --> 0:04:58.719 in depth tomorrow with our European allies, with the Ukrainians 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:00.600 that are coming over. We'll be just discussing all of 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.239 these things because ultimately we do need to find areas 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:06.040 where we're making progress and try to begin to narrow 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:07.560 the gap between the two sides. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:13.120 That's either true or it's not right right. I hope 0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:16.960 it is. Yeah, I suspect it is. Whether you know 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:19.039 the bulk of it is at all acceptable to the 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:21.840 Ukrainian people is the big question mark. I mean, there's 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:26.920 I don't mean to be cavalier from a comfortable radio studio, 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:30.880 but there are times in life where you have to 0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:34.080 fight till you can't fight anymore. That's why the boxer 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.159 just keeps getting up and getting knocked down again because 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.560 he thinks I'm not gonna stop fighting till I'm defeated, 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:42.600 even though it's looking very bad. And there are plenty 0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:45.039 of people in Ukraine who think, no, we're not going 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:47.840 to just give up to quote unquote save lives and 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:50.920 be conquered by Putin. No, we're going to keep fighting 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:54.839 even if we've got to keep fighting until we're defeated. Otherwise, 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:56.680 how do we live with ourselves? What do we tell 0:05:56.680 --> 0:05:59.440 our children? And we'll just have to see how all 0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:01.200 that plays out. Well. 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:04.479 I didn't like the way Friday looked, But Marco Mark 0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:08.120 what's her name? Margaret Brennan's question there? Did you just 0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:11.320 give on everything? What are you basing that on? I mean, 0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:12.080 what are you. 0:06:12.000 --> 0:06:17.479 Basing that on? She is an obnoxious horror. Uh. The 0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:22.320 shininess of her legs only you know, rivaled by the 0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:25.640 darkness of her soul. I hate to fall into the 0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:26.360 truck something. 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:29.520 I hate to fall into the trap that everybody does 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:32.719 of playing the most spicy clip, even though it's not 0:06:32.760 --> 0:06:36.080 the most important. But this questioning about why the European 0:06:36.200 --> 0:06:38.560 leaders are coming to the White House today. They got 0:06:38.560 --> 0:06:40.040 into that conversation. 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:43.960 President Trump told Fox News his advice to President Zelensky 0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:47.200 is make a deal. Russia's a very big power, and 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:50.840 they're not. You know, there is concern from the Europeans 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:55.400 that President Zelensky is going to be bullied into signing 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:57.800 something away. That's why you have these European leaders coming 0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:58.960 as back up tomorrow. 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:03.720 Can you No, It isn't that's that's not true. But 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:05.800 that's not why why that's not true. They're not coming 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.039 here tomorrow to keep Zelensky from being bullied. 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:10.840 They're not very old. They're coming here tomorrow. 0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:13.840 The television cameras where President Zalynsky. 0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:15.680 You don't how many meetings you? 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:17.560 Oh, no, I know, And I was just up the 0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.880 bunch of with Vladimir Putin where red carpet rules. 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.400 We've had more meetings we've had We've had We've had 0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:27.600 one meeting with Putin and like a dozen meetings with Zelenski. 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.520 So that but that's not true. They're not coming here tomorrow. 0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:33.000 It keeps Zelensky from being bullied. They're coming here tomorrow 0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:34.720 because we've been working with the Europeans. We talked to 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:36.480 them last week. There were meetings in the UK over 0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:38.680 the follow the previous weekend, and they say. 0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:41.360 As early as Thursday. 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:43.880 But you said that they're coming here tomorrow to keep 0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:44.960 Zelensky from being bullied. 0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:46.000 They're not coming here tomorrow. 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:49.000 This is such a stupid media narrative that they're coming 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:52.320 here tomorrow because the Trump is going to bully Zelensky 0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:54.720 into a bad deal. We've been working with these people 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:57.440 for weeks, for weeks on this stuff. They're coming here 0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.560 tomorrow because they chose to come here tomorrow. We invited 0:07:59.560 --> 0:08:02.080 them to come. We invited them to come, The President 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.119 invited them to come. 0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:06.960 I think they're one hundred percent here to keep Zelensky 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:13.040 from getting bullied and or steamrolled. Yeah, although you know, 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:15.880 if you want to put it a little more diplomatically, 0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:19.520 they're there to represent the European point of view. Yeah, 0:08:19.560 --> 0:08:24.600 and interests which are more acute, more immediate. 0:08:24.120 --> 0:08:26.760 Than ours is a nation. Yeah, it's not the only 0:08:26.800 --> 0:08:30.840 reason they're here, sure, but it's part of it. It'd 0:08:30.840 --> 0:08:35.040 be pretty hard to put together a deal that didn't 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:38.160 include the European leaders because we're not putting boots on 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:42.319 the ground. But Britain and Germany for instance, have talked 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:45.600 about it. Uh see, he can't make those decisions without 0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:49.920 them in the room. Trump's meeting one on one with Zelensky, 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:52.760 Will Jade Vance and Trump are meeting with Zelensky, where's 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:53.280 your suit? 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:59.200 And then they're meeting with the European leaders later. Right, God, 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:00.760 dang it. 0:09:00.160 --> 0:09:02.480 He's just so crazy today. I have no idea how 0:09:02.520 --> 0:09:11.080 it's going to go. So Trump did, I've got we 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:15.240 probably have the clip. He said over the weekend that president, 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.920 she said told him. She told Trump, according to Trump, 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:22.160 that he would not invade Taiwan as long as Trump 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:25.640 was president, and Trump said. 0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.480 Well, I don't know about that, but that's what he 0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:31.040 told me. It's because they got a five year timetable. 0:09:33.280 --> 0:09:36.559 And if I understand the United States running dogs of 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:41.080 capitalist system, you're termed out. So yeah, we got a 0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:42.920 five year planned You're out in three years. So yeah, 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:44.720 don't worry about it. I mean, it might be as 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.160 simple as that. I mean, Trump wants to portray it 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:49.680 as he doesn't dare because I'm such a hard ass. No, 0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.080 it's just they're just not ready. They're getting their ducks 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:55.959 in a row. The Giant to militarize drone ducks. Yes, 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.920 so a lot of the world like myself. 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.600 Scheduled their day on Friday around that press conference because 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:07.640 I wanted to see that. Yeah, and when it actually 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:10.480 was happening, I thought they skipped the lunch. Okay, what happened. 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.040 They skipped the lunch below, the lunch has been canceled. 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.760 They're coming out to talk. Putin comes out and gives 0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:19.520 a rambling, weird speech about a bunch of different stuff. 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:23.320 Trump talks for like twice, Trump's ass to a large extent, 0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:26.000 kissing Trump's asking, but how about that stuff from Putin 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:29.520 saying the uh, you know, and I think you won 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:32.960 the twenty twenty election and this war wouldn't have happened 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.680 if you had been president. I mean, what is that? 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:38.440 And then Trump with it, going on and on about 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:42.840 the Russia Russia Russia hoax. I don't know. It was. Yeah, 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.800 everybody was excited about it. We all were watching it. 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:49.120 We were trading texts and stuff like that. I wish 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.920 it had been a nothing burger. It was an aluminum 0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:56.320 foil and shards of glassburger. A nothing burger would have 0:10:56.360 --> 0:11:00.800 been way better. But again, it might be a step 0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:03.000 in the road towards something that's about as good as 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.439 it can get. I don't know. I was horrified by it, 0:11:05.520 --> 0:11:10.880 sickened by it, you know. I yeah, I could not 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:17.240 have been more unhappy with the ass kissing of and 0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:22.520 Putin and the utter refusal to condemn him. But you know, 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:25.960 the proof is in the pudding. The process is underway. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.480 You know, the cases afoot and the results are what matter. 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:32.000 And Trump has some weird methods. 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:35.280 Yeah, the results are what's matter and we should judge 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:37.440 it by that at the end. But play sixty seven 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:39.520 for me, because this is a point Rubyo is making 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:40.160 over and over. 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:44.520 You talk about the intensifying strikes on the Russian side, Yeah, 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:46.439 I mean their full time war machine. 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:47.320 I mean, that's what's happening. 0:11:47.320 --> 0:11:50.120 The Russian economy has basically been turned into a full 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.199 time wartime economy. They have a lot of people. It's 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:56.240 a big country. It's not just large geographically, it has 0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:59.240 huge populations. It continues to turn through people. You know, 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.559 they lost any thousand Russian soldiers were killed last month 0:12:02.640 --> 0:12:05.280 in July in this war. That just tells you the 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:07.720 price they're willing to pay. Not saying any of this 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:10.040 is admirable, I'm saying that this is the reality of 0:12:10.040 --> 0:12:12.760 the war. That we're facing. It's become attrition. In some ways. 0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:14.400 It's a meat grinder and they just have more meat 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:14.840 to grind. 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:18.120 So in that sub trust, that is some really good realism. 0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:19.160 Well right, and. 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:22.439 Trump saying to Zelensky, look, they're a big country. 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:22.840 You're not. 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.000 I mean again, that's not you might not like it, 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.800 you might wish were true, it might be might suck 0:12:28.880 --> 0:12:32.200 to have to say those words, but they are willing 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.720 to feed people into a meat grinder. They got tons 0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:42.400 of people. They're bigger than you, got more meat. Yeah, 0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:43.079 so what do you do with that? 0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:47.280 I think Zelensky's response would be he's an evil doer. 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:50.040 That's upsetting all of the norms you've said are important. 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:51.880 Why don't you help us more? Right? 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:53.960 So that is the other said, that's something that Marko 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:55.760 Rubia didn't get into yesterday, and I don't think he 0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:58.480 was pushed well on. Well, yeah, they're a little country, 0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.720 but if they were backed up by native and or 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:03.559 the United States, they could take on Russia. 0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:06.319 So why aren't we doing that? Or it wouldn't be 0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.400 necessary because Putin wouldn't want that fight, right, right, But 0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.400 it's you know, blah blah blah World War three, nuclear 0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:17.560 power escalation, not our fight. All those are legitimate concerns, 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:21.760 absolutely legitimate. Sure your thoughts on this text line? 0:13:21.800 --> 0:13:28.200 Four one five, Oh, it's it's COVID, promptly COVID whooping cough. 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:31.400 My wife went to the doctor, she's gotten uper respiratory thing. 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:36.520 They insisted on checking her for COVID. She's like, that's coronavirus. 0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.839 She's like, who cares if I have COVID? What does 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:41.360 it matter? 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.200 That's interesting When I had whooping cough. They never checked 0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:45.400 me for COVID at any point. 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:49.960 Gunnery. It could be gunnery for me, not her. I 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:54.760 didn't see that. Most likely, Okay. Our text line is 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:56.640 four one five two k FTC. 0:14:01.520 --> 0:14:04.280 An elephant in India ran toward a man who tried 0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:05.959 to take a selfie with the beast. 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.120 Signed to say, it's the first instance of Rosie O'Donnell 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:10.280 going after a man. 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:19.120 Wow, Wow, Greg, I don't think I've ever heard of 0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:23.200 anybody who traffics in ugly or fat jokes more than 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:24.040 Greg Guttfeld. 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:29.440 Yeah yeah, oh man, So. 0:14:31.840 --> 0:14:34.120 We're trying to get a handle on where y'all are. 0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.840 Not that that informs my opinion on this whole Rushia 0:14:38.920 --> 0:14:41.560 Ukraine thing.

Uh, Trump 0:15:03.640 --> 0:15:08.320 said ceasefire or severe consequences, and I will be very unhappy. 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:13.760 No ceasefire, flattery and press conference and no consequences yet. 0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:19.040 Pick your headline choice one Donald Trump keeps deal alive. 0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:25.560 It's smart headline.

The text line for the 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:02.160 show is really hateful I mean, you guys have Trump's 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:07.640 private so far up your or down your whatever that 0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:09.560 you can't see straight, that sort of thing. 0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:14.760 Oh, so it's anti Trump people who are berating us. Yeah, 0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.680 that's funny. I assumed it was pro Trump people at 0:16:17.760 --> 0:16:19.840 least on the town line. It's funny. Mostly. 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:24.760 Yeah, you'll do anything to hill for the Trump administration. 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.840 So well, I hope you get help with your hearing 0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:31.760 loss because that can be a devastating condition. 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:37.720 Well, I think I've been definitely mostly on the side 0:16:37.720 --> 0:16:39.680 of extreme disappointment with Friday. 0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:42.800 I don't know, I heard a lot of ass kissing myself. 0:16:42.840 --> 0:16:46.800 That's the way I interpreted your obsequious belly showing remarks. 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:51.480 I'm just trying to be diplomatic here, so. 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:53.720 Anyways, trying to figure out where you all are on that. 0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:56.080 So you can feel free to text or email.

Probably Lee is going to 0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.960 be not matter at all after today, because there'll be 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:05.880 a lot of movement with the European leaders and Zelenski 0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:07.840 there at the White House. Got a lot more on 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:09.320 the way. If you missed a segment get the podcast 0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:10.600 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:10.320 --> 0:17:12.880 On Demand Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:17.760 Katie didn't tell us the full story about the Minnesota 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:18.919 Vikings cheerleaders. 0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:24.200 Stay, oh, oh is she keeping key facts back? Yes? 0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:29.800 Hiding them as it were. Oh, don't look all incident, 0:17:29.880 --> 0:17:36.080 All innocent, Katie. Easy for you to say, all right, yeah, anyway, 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:38.680 more on that to come. What else? There was something 0:17:38.680 --> 0:17:40.399 else I was going to say, I can't remember. It 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:45.800 doesn't matter. Oh, that's right. So, you know, just talking 0:17:45.840 --> 0:17:49.320 about the angst of some of the good folks about 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:53.080 whether we were busy servicing Trump in a way that 0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:56.199 should only be done by his wives and paramours, or 0:17:57.040 --> 0:18:00.520 whether indeed we're anti Trump lunatics, and we've been accused 0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:05.600 of both, like in the last fifteen minutes. Number one, 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:13.080 if you're trying to decide which side are they pandering to? Ah, 0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:16.560 you've actually figured out the answer to that because we don't. Secondly, 0:18:16.800 --> 0:18:20.480 it's okay if we disagree sometimes. Can you imagine agreeing 0:18:20.520 --> 0:18:25.000 with somebody one hundred percent of the time, they're not 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:27.640 being honest with you. They're pandering. It's not what we do. 0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.600 So anyway, I hope you can have a little patience 0:18:29.600 --> 0:18:32.800 with us for that, all right. Having said that, of 0:18:32.840 --> 0:18:35.720 all the things in the last day, the last week, 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:38.000 the last month that have made you say, what the 0:18:38.080 --> 0:18:41.760 hell this might be the what the helliest of them, 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:45.479 Ladies and gentlemen, I give you former head of the FBI, 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:53.000 framer of Donald Trump, propagator of the Russia hoax, James Comy. 0:18:53.720 --> 0:18:57.520 Hey, everybody, welcome back to my substack. Last week's cold 0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:01.240 turns out to have been COVID quite a flat, and 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:05.119 Donald Trump is still president and still humiliating America on 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:07.840 a national stage standing next to Vladimir Putin. It's like 0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:11.040 a dream, a bad dream you can't wake up from. 0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:12.960 But I don't want to talk about that bad dream 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:15.400 this week. I want to talk about a truly inspirational 0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:19.280 public figure named Taylor Swift. Of course I watched her 0:19:19.359 --> 0:19:22.720 podcast interview with the Kelsey Brothers. Of course I watched 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:25.919 the whole thing, although on YouTube. Teresa and I got 0:19:26.000 --> 0:19:28.199 kicked off for the last fifteen minutes and finished it 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:32.040 on her phone. But I watched it. You see Taylor 0:19:32.119 --> 0:19:34.960 Swift and I go way back. I went to my 0:19:35.080 --> 0:19:38.280 first concert of hers fifteen years ago. What I've been 0:19:38.320 --> 0:19:41.840 to a second, and I have helped financially support the 0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:44.840 attendance of a lot of family members at others. I'm 0:19:44.880 --> 0:19:48.679 in a family's Swifty group chat. I know all her 0:19:48.760 --> 0:19:50.680 music and I listened to it on my headphones when 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:51.399 I cut the grass. 0:19:53.000 --> 0:19:55.439 There's more. It goes on for a couple more minutes. 0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:58.800 What the hell that's James? Call me? Are we sure 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:03.919 that's not Ai. I'd seen headline slash stories about it 0:20:04.000 --> 0:20:06.920 in other places that I think would have known better, 0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:09.879 or he would have pushed or looked like him. He 0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:11.680 would have come out by now and said that wasn't him. 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:15.199 Oh yeah, yeah, I would agree. Wow, that's what If 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:17.920 anybody has any evidence that it is AI, I mean, 0:20:17.960 --> 0:20:21.040 that would be even more interesting than whatever the hell 0:20:21.240 --> 0:20:24.440 that just was the way he said certain things. 0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:28.240 I've contributed to the financial efforts of some family members 0:20:28.720 --> 0:20:30.320 to support Taylor Swift. 0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:33.080 You mean you bought tickets for your kids? I mean 0:20:36.520 --> 0:20:40.160 New York Times x FBI director James Comy makes bizarre 0:20:40.240 --> 0:20:44.720 confession Fox News James Comy raves about Taylor Swift in 0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:48.640 bizarre video. The Daily Beast Maga melts down over James 0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:54.040 Comy's creepy Taylor Swift video. Even they being lefties, are like, yeah, 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:55.080 that was weird and creepy. 0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:57.480 Well yeah, so I don't you know he likes Taylor 0:20:57.480 --> 0:20:59.919 Swift whatever. I don't care kind of music other people like. 0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:04.440 But the like the juxtaposition of that with Trump and. 0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:07.399 Putin and everything, it's so weird and what is he 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:11.320 What was the point of that? Yeah, conservatives mock komy 0:21:11.400 --> 0:21:14.520 over Taylor Swift video. That's the hill. Yeah, it's it's legit. 0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:22.280 That's weird. Wow, he's a half a nut. Oh yeah, yeah, 0:21:22.320 --> 0:21:27.439 absolutely true. Okay, Katie, you got to explain this. 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:32.080 So Katie had in her headlines I think last week 0:21:32.440 --> 0:21:35.120 something about there are a couple of male cheerleaders from 0:21:35.160 --> 0:21:39.280 the Minnesota Vikings. And I remember at the time, Am 0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:41.000 I making this up? You didn't have that story? 0:21:41.359 --> 0:21:45.439 Uh? I had a story about people were mad. Oh 0:21:45.520 --> 0:21:47.399
