1 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: A homeless guy built a treehouse in Los Angeles and 2 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: lived there for way too long. The trans community has 3 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 1: a separate but equal space, which is weird, and taxpayers 4 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: are paying for it at great expense. And a two 5 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 1: decade old controversy is bubbling up in the lib's most 6 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: recent attempt to drag something from the past and be 7 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 1: super super mad about it. All that and more coming 8 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: up on this episode at Turning Points Tonight. My name 9 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: is Joe Bob. Thanks so much for tuning in. Together, 10 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: we are charting the course of America's cultural comeback. This 11 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: is Turning Points Tonight. And before we get to any 12 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: of those stories in our fantastic panel one, I want 13 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: to run on people. At the top of the show. 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: You can email the show anytime you want TPT at 15 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,199 Speaker 1: TPUSA dot com. You can email whether you agree or 16 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: whether you're wrong. We love seeing all of your emails, 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: and I know a lot of you send us hilarious videos, 18 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: which you usually play in the fourth segment, So just 19 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: so you know, TPT at TPUSA dot com. I also 20 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: want to talk about the possibility, the great possibility, in 21 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: my opinion, of President Trump taking over law enforcement in Washington, 22 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: d C. I'm sure you've heard the story by now 23 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: of the ex DOGE staffer who got beat up brutally 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: outside of DC, and that just shed light on unfortunately 25 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: common knowledge that Washington d C. Is not the safest 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: area in the country by far. Actually, it is hugely 27 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: riddled with crime. Now, when President Trump said, hey, you know, 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: I might have to take it over, obviously the lib 29 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: media went nuts, Oh my gosh, how could he do this? 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: Well constitutionally for people who aren't aware, and I would 31 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: imagine the audience is very aware of this, the District 32 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: of Columbia Washington, d C. Is the seat of the 33 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: federal government, which constitutionally needs to be separate then from 34 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: the states for a whole lot of reasons that we 35 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: don't need to necessarily get into right now, but basically, 36 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: everything they do in the District of Columbia is under 37 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: the supervision of the federal government. The mayor that exists 38 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: there kind of is just there, I don't want to 39 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: say necessarily just for show, but she's there because the 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: federal government allows her to be there. So what I 41 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: think could possibly happen here maybe a foundation of how 42 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 1: to run a big blue city. So many of our 43 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: big cities around the country are deep blue, and therefore 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: they're lax on crime, and therefore they're crime riddled. If 45 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: President Trump were to exercise the authority of the federal 46 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: government take over the city, clean it up, drop the 47 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 1: crime rate, this specifically, the violent crime rate down to 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: as low as it can possibly go. Well, that actually 49 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: might be good for blue cities all over the country. 50 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: But I'm fascinated to hear comments and thoughts from our 51 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: guest panel, Joy Backliss crew Backless Cruise. I think I 52 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: messed that up last time too. Sorry. Joy Backliss Cruise 53 00:02:55,200 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: is a conservative commentator, and Greg Leikhov is a syndicated columnist. Guys, 54 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining. Really appreciate you taking the time. 55 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 2: Thank you for having us. 56 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: Joy, I'd love to start with you here. So again, unfortunately, 57 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: and I don't like talking about this, but it's just 58 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: a fact of reality. Another violent attack happened in Washington, 59 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: d C. That made headlines. Now, violent attacks happened all 60 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 1: the time, but because there's so many important people in Washington, 61 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: d C. This one made headlines. Of former DOGE staffer 62 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: got to beat up. And again this is among many 63 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:31,320 Speaker 1: crimes there do you think the president one would be 64 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: within his rights and two politically be welcomed if he decided, Hey, 65 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna go We're gonna use the federal government to 66 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: use the National Guard, We're going to clean up Washington, 67 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: d C. 68 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Here's the thing. DC is among one of the 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 2: most crime riden cities in the United States by almost 70 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: every single metric. The kiss of death has certainly threatened 71 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: me with a good time in the parking lot of 72 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: a d C McDonald's. And DC is a unique city. 73 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 2: We have lawmakers there, we have admin there, families are there. 74 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 2: They deserve to be able to make laws for our 75 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: country and govern our country without the threat of death 76 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 2: all the time. And that's just not the case right now. 77 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: Lawlessness is the mainstream and they don't deserve that. They 78 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: deserve to feel safe while they are serving our country. 79 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 2: So it is our responsibility to protect our lawmakers. And 80 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: if that means taking over the DC police, who clearly 81 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 2: aren't doing a very good job, and bringing in people 82 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 2: who actually know what they're doing, like the National Guard, 83 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 2: sounds good to me. And for all intents and purposes, 84 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 2: as far as I know, Big Balls is a hero. 85 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,279 Speaker 2: He is saving the West, not only working for dog 86 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 2: but also on the streets, helping women and being what a. 87 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 3: True man is. 88 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is fascinating to see, and I'm hopeful that 89 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: we see the administration step in and set an example. 90 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: But I guess yeah, speaking of examples, Gregory, I would 91 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: love to see the Trump administration really set a baseline 92 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: for big cities because so how often you hear people 93 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: from New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, other big 94 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 1: cities around the country saying how it's too big to control. 95 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: This is just kind of the byproduct of having a 96 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: lot of people in one suburban space. I don't think 97 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 1: that's true. I think if you enforce laws that are 98 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: already on the books, you can actually clean up these 99 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: blue cities. Do you think if President Trump, and again 100 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 1: I hate to talking hypotheticals, but if he decides to 101 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 1: go through with this, take over the DC law enforcement 102 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 1: and turn it around entirely, that would be a blueprint 103 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: for cities around the country. 104 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, definitely, that's the obvious here. And it's important 105 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 4: to mention that DC in just the last year increased 106 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 4: their homicide rate by over forty percent. So when you 107 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 4: have a city where murders are committed every single day. 108 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 4: Multiple murders are committed every single day, there's an obvious issue. 109 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,119 Speaker 4: And when that city is the capital of the United States, 110 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,799 Speaker 4: the greatest country on Earth, and DOGE staffers, for example, 111 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 4: or any other department governmental department staffer are getting attacked 112 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 4: every day, there is a concern there, and I think 113 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 4: that's obvious President Trump, with his resources. We saw that 114 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 4: the National Guard did a wonderful job in Los Angeles 115 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 4: when the protests were going on earlier in the year, and. 116 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 5: That was a huge success. 117 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 4: I want to see that in DC because if we 118 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 4: have it in DC, if DC turns into this garbage 119 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 4: pail of a city and turns into an actual, clean, 120 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 4: nice city that everyone wants to live in, we can 121 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 4: see New York do the same thing. And Los Angeles 122 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 4: and all the other liberal cities out there. 123 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's well, you know, in Los Angeles, it wasn't 124 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: it was important. There were just a couple of people 125 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 1: getting together having fun watching carsburn. And if you understand 126 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: that reference, thanks for watching the show routinely. But speaking 127 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: of Los Angeles, I thought this was really interesting. We've 128 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: all seen pictures of skid row in Los Angeles, where 129 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: people just set up tents on the sidewalk. Joy, there 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 1: was a guy who built a full blown, three story 131 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: quote unquote luxury tree house on the sidewalk. And it 132 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: wasn't until his video on TikTok got tens of thousands 133 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: of views that the city took it down. They did 134 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: actually take it down. You're gonna see pictures of this 135 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: in the b roll. But he's at it again. He's 136 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 1: building a second treehouse. Joey. For lack of a better question, WTF. 137 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 5: Look, I respect the hustle. 138 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 2: This is his fourth treehouse since twenty fifteen. He's industrious, 139 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 2: he's creative, he has a relatively nice sense of aesthetics. 140 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 2: This is who needs to be building back South and 141 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: Center fires this year started in January. Nobody is doing anything. 142 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: Put him on the job. It's gonna get done. 143 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 6: Ron. 144 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: There's so many directions here that you could go, Yeah, 145 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: you could be. I am obviously furious, and I know 146 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: you would probably be too, but in a joking manner. Yeah, 147 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: this guy has gotten around all of the permitting that 148 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: all of the people who devastatingly had their homes burnt 149 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: down can't get through. In Los Angeles. Hey just say, Hey, 150 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm a homeless so I'm gonna build buildless house right here? Greg, 151 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: This this is really interesting too, because well, okay, I 152 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: don't want to say really interesting. In this article that 153 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: I was reading about it, they quoted one of the neighbors, 154 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 1: and she, unfortunately suffers from a soft pliable head, says, well, 155 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: he isn't bothering anyone. He's just there in his own 156 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: little tree you pass by, and he's never been disrespectful 157 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: towards her, to which I say, Okay, what are his 158 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: property tax rates? As a homeowner in the state of California, 159 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: I pay a hefty amount of money in property taxes. 160 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: If he gets to skate by, can I also skate by? Greg? 161 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on this? 162 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, first off, I'm from New York City, so 163 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 4: I know this. I am all around this. You think 164 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 4: this is bad, look at I don't know canal Stream 165 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 4: in New York City, It's ridiculous all over in New 166 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 4: York City we have this exact issue. And now with 167 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 4: the mayoral election, are going to be the new mayoral 168 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 4: elect of Zarhon Mamdani. This is only going to get 169 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 4: ten times worse. You're going to go from buildings where 170 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 4: luxury apartments and billionaires row stands on to buildings with 171 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 4: treehouses and homeless people all around. So I really would 172 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 4: be very concerned for Los Angeles right now. But the 173 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 4: fact that you know, a neighbor claims that he isn't 174 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 4: bothering anyone is total nonsense. Can I just go in 175 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 4: the middle of the street and build a tent and 176 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 4: start camping in the middle of a highway? No, obviously not. 177 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 4: And he can build a tree house. I mean, this 178 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 4: is ridiculous. This is not It doesn't take you know, 179 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 4: common sense to understand that. Not only that, but we 180 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 4: saw that Los Angeles and California in general is very 181 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 4: capable of cleaning up these cities. We saw that when 182 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 4: you know, the president or whatever he is of China 183 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 4: came San Francisco, got fully clean, and Gavin Newsom escorted 184 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 4: him all around. So they're capable of doing something about it. 185 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 4: They just don't want to. It seems like they're either 186 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 4: lazy or taking the money for themselves. 187 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 7: I don't know. 188 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: Actually, I think it's both. They're lazy taking the money 189 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: for themselves and also completely and totally competent and corrupt 190 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: that seems to be the case across the board anytime 191 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 1: you look into Los Angeles and other cities around the 192 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: state of California. But Greg, you mentioned you're from New York, 193 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: you will be happy to know this. Finally this has 194 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: come to fruition. There is a transgender homeless facility that 195 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 1: has just opened in New York City. Thank goodness, finally 196 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: it has arrived. Greg, What the what is a transgender 197 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: homeless facility? I guess I don't The homeless facility is 198 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: bad enough in your neighborhood, but now you have to 199 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: be trans to go into this one specifically. 200 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 4: Well, you think that's funny, I say, look at what 201 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 4: Mumdani is going to bring you. See. In the state legislator, 202 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 4: while he was assemblyman he currently is an assemblyman in 203 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 4: the New York State Legislator, he brought a bill that 204 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 4: would basically allow inmates to attend the housed facility in 205 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 4: incarceration based on their own self identity gender identity. So 206 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: let's say, if I am a man, I could just 207 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 4: say I identify as a woman and go into a 208 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 4: female incarceration. 209 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 8: Jail. 210 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 4: And we saw that this exact piece of legislation actually 211 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 4: passed in California, and there the result was terrible, for 212 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 4: women got impregnated for the first time in their female 213 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,199 Speaker 4: jail cells because men were transitioning into a female jail. 214 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 4: Not only that, but the California Correctional Facility Department had 215 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 4: to pass out contraceptives for the first time. So this 216 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 4: is just again a big, big deal. This is all 217 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 4: identity politics. As I say, focusing on this is just 218 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 4: a small, small part of the radical left agenda to create, 219 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 4: you know, facilities for one percent of people. I have 220 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 4: never met a transgender homeless person. I don't know if 221 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 4: they exist. I mean maybe in New York City there's 222 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 4: maybe there are in the facilities, but I don't know. 223 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 4: I find it crazy. That's the only word to describe it. 224 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:07,319 Speaker 1: Greg. I want to I want to make sure I'm 225 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: hearing you correctly. You're saying that transgender women who are 226 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 1: men going into women's prison is actually dangerous and horrible, 227 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: that if only somebody had known that beforehand, we could 228 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: have avoided some of these terrible tragedies. But of course 229 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 1: that is completely unknowable to anybody with the brain. Joy, 230 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 1: I want to hit you with some some statistics here. 231 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: This this homeless facility for trans people is going to 232 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: cost sixty five million dollars paid for by the taxpayers 233 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: through twenty thirty, and it has one hundred and fifty beds. 234 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: I did the very simple math. That's about eighty six 235 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 1: thousand dollars per year per bed. I'll do it for half. 236 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 9: I know it. 237 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,719 Speaker 1: That's that's what I'm looking at it. I don't know 238 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 1: are people going to put up with this sort of thing. 239 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 2: I mean, welcome to New York City, where most people 240 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: can't afford an apartment. But if you identify as a 241 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 2: two spirit, they them the city might just hold you 242 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 2: shelter with Wi Fi, you know, your own personal bathroom, 243 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 2: access to two commercial kitchens, or the option to have 244 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 2: a single lodging in one of one hundred single bedrooms 245 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 2: or one of twenty five double bedrooms, all on the 246 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 2: taxpayer's dime. And that's what makes it so great. The 247 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: working class American is paying for it. But to be fair, 248 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 2: to be fair, in all seriousness, the point of having 249 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 2: these shelters is to take people off the public dole 250 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 2: and to alleviate human suffering. So if the purpose, if 251 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 2: the true purpose of this shelter is to help people 252 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: with their mental health struggles, you know, help them find 253 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: a job, teach them how to keep a job, teach 254 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 2: them how to pay taxes. And if the Long Island 255 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 2: City people are okay with that big price tag attached 256 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 2: to it, I could be for this. But where I 257 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 2: am weary is that the medical industrial complex has a 258 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 2: long history of hurting mental health patients a lot more than. 259 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 4: It helps it. 260 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: And shelters like this that often vocalize their desires to 261 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 2: help people as a temporary solution while they get on 262 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 2: their feet and get up and running find a job, 263 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 2: they usually end up as a long term solution, housing 264 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 2: people for free for years on end while the working 265 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: class is paying for them, which is obviously not fair. 266 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 2: So I guess time will tell. But something tells me 267 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 2: that my wearies are not for no reason. 268 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would imagine that nobody's actually going to pay 269 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: attention to this. Unfortunately, I would love to see this 270 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: experiment tried. I don't think anybody should actually do this. 271 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: I'm not advocating for you to do that. Go to 272 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: New York City, defecate on the sidewalk. We'll put it 273 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: in nice, polite terms and see what happens and if 274 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: you get in trouble, just say no, no, sorry, it's okay. 275 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm homeless and trans and they'll say, right this way, 276 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: here's a one bed apartment in ninety thousand dollars. Craig 277 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 1: and Joy will be back after the break to discuss 278 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: a twenty year old, almost twenty year old controversy that 279 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: internet sleuths on the left are trying to bring back 280 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: up and cancel magazine four, among many other things. Right 281 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:04,400 Speaker 1: after the Breakdount Oil'll be right back. 282 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 3: Got to admire what you've been able to do, not 283 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 3: to weaponize, but to organize on these college campuses. 284 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 9: At Turning Point USA. 285 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 8: We've spent thirteen years building the machine, and last year 286 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 8: we sought payoff. Our grassroots army is making a real difference. 287 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 8: Help us keep the momentum going. Donate today and keep 288 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 8: keep USA strong on campuses across America, and. 289 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 10: For a gift of any amount, you'll receive your big 290 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 10: Gov sucks cooler claim yours today. 291 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: And welcome back to Turning Point Tonight. We're together. We 292 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: are charting the course of America's cultural comeback. Let's check 293 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: in with Turning Points. White House correspondent Monica Page at 294 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: the White House, Monica, how you doing. 295 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 6: I'm doing good, Joe Bob. It's another busy week at 296 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 6: the White House, another busy day. You already know. 297 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: You don't say that's surprising. It usually, you know, President 298 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: Trump is known to not be seen by the media 299 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: for months at a time. Sorry, wait, that was the 300 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: last guy, Okay, and that makes sense. So, Monica, all 301 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: of these rumors, I know, if you call him rumors 302 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: because the legitimate news stories, but nobody is quite entirely 303 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: sure what's happening or how it's gonna work. But putin Trump, 304 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: what is the latest currently, which obviously viewers should know 305 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: that that could have changed by the time you're watching this. 306 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 6: Right, Well, it's very convoluted, like you just previously mentioned, 307 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 6: Joe Bob. I mean, originally we knew Special Envoy Steve 308 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 6: Woodcoff was in Russia meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin 309 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 6: for about three hours during his trip, where they were 310 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 6: fluting around an idea of a trilateral meeting between Putin, Zelensky, 311 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 6: and Trump. But then for some reason Putin said, you know, 312 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 6: I don't want to meet with Zelensky until I meet 313 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 6: with Trump, and the Kremlin was saying that that could 314 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 6: come as soon as next week, this Putin and Trump meeting. 315 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 6: But we just got report that the White House is saying, 316 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 6: I don't want to meet with Putin until Putin meets 317 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 6: with Zelensky, and that could up a flurry of issues, 318 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 6: considering the fact that these two have not really come 319 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 6: face to face ever before from my recent knowledge at least, 320 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 6: so that could be a very interesting meeting. And if 321 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 6: we'll even come to the table to meet with Zelensky. 322 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,480 Speaker 6: We know that the ongoing assault against Ukraine has been continuing, 323 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 6: as we know in the news. But I'm interested to 324 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 6: see if this trilateral meeting will happen. I was hoping 325 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 6: it would happen at least here at the White House. 326 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 6: We know what happened the first time Selenski came during 327 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 6: President Trump's second term. So very interesting to see how 328 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 6: what the dynamic would even look like if we saw 329 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 6: all three of them in the room together. 330 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, it'll be one of those is so we often 331 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: have is we'll find out together how this plays out. 332 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, so and so is not gonna meet with 333 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 1: so and so until so and so meets with so 334 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: and so, and this whole kind of thing. I personally 335 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 1: think the United States has the upper hand in every 336 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 1: single circumstance like this, but I guess we'll see how 337 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: it all pans out. My biggest question, and there's really 338 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,239 Speaker 1: no way of knowing this unless you're like in the 339 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: meeting itself, is does Putin speak English in these because 340 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure he does actually speak English. He always 341 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: uses a translator when he does foreign media. But I'm 342 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: just so curious if that. Do you have any insight 343 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:05,719 Speaker 1: on that. 344 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 5: I think he has to. 345 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 6: I think he has to. I mean, if he's going 346 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 6: to work with the United States, he has to know English. 347 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 6: But I just think they doesn't really feel like using English. Also, 348 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 6: Russia is on a very tight deadline to end this 349 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 6: war because Trump is on as that is last WIT's 350 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 6: end here when it comes to Russia between the sanctions 351 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 6: that could be coming. 352 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's gonna be It's gonna be an interesting 353 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: one to watch go forward, and obviously we hope for 354 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: the best outcomes for the United States and then obviously 355 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: everyone else involved too. What else is going on? Purple 356 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 1: Heart day? Is that why you're wearing purple today? Is 357 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: that making a statement? What's what's Purple Heart Day. 358 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 6: Absolutely, jobob It's Purple Heart Day. That's why I'm in 359 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,640 Speaker 6: my purple dress. Here. We know that over one point 360 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 6: eight million Americans have received peak Purple Heart Award. It 361 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 6: was revived in nineteen thirty two after an FDR's administration 362 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 6: to honor the two hundredth birthday of George Washington. So 363 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 6: ever since then they've been celebate Purple Heart and commemorating 364 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 6: those who've been wounded or killed in war. And today 365 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 6: here at the White House, the President is honoring nearly 366 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 6: one hundred members of the military here who have received 367 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 6: Purple Heart Awards, including three who have actually gifted their 368 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 6: badges to President Trump after surviving the assassination attempt back 369 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 6: in July, and Butler Pennsylvania, the President specifically honoring him, 370 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 6: and we will also probably be seeing his campaign manager, 371 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 6: Chris los Avita, who is a Marine Corps and also 372 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 6: served in the Gulf War. So we can definitely expect 373 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 6: to see a lot of members of his administration, especially 374 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 6: in the veterans affairs, and it's going to be a 375 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 6: packed room. I've been talking to a couple of the 376 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 6: cameramen who have already set up for the preset and 377 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,159 Speaker 6: they said it's going to be half. There is barely 378 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 6: any room for reporters, barely any room for cameramen. It's 379 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 6: going to be filled with those who've been wounded in war, 380 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 6: those who have served our country so bravely, and we're 381 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 6: very excited to see them be honored. 382 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 9: Of course. 383 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is awesome to see administration that so fermently 384 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: backs our military and our veterans. Awesome news, Monica, thanks 385 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: so much for joining us. Really appreciate you taking the time. 386 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 6: Thanks you, guys, Thank you. 387 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: It's not a new routine when Libs try to drag 388 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: something from the past back up to cancel one of 389 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: their foes, but this is a particularly why are they 390 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: doing that instance. Maxim magazine eighteen years ago in two 391 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: thousand and seven put out an article and I think 392 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: they're mocking people magazine's sexiest man or sexiest woman alive 393 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: or whatever it was, and they said, here's the unsexiest 394 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: women alive and put out a list. I can't imagine 395 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: a bunch of people read it. I can't imagine it 396 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: caused a ton of controversy. It was in two thousand 397 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 1: and seven we were more accepting of humor and satire 398 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: and ridicule and all that sort of stuff. But today, 399 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five, Reddit blew up on this story 400 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden people are mad about it again. 401 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: Let's bring back our panel, Joy, Backlist Cruise and Gregory Leaikov. Guys, Joy, 402 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: I want to start with you here. You can talk 403 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: about the whole content of the article in and of itself, 404 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: you know, the idea of it. Is it funny all 405 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: that you can, but also this idea of dragging something 406 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 1: that's eighteen years old and not really even tied to 407 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: a particular individual that they're trying to take down. It's 408 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 1: just Maxim magazine as a whole. Is this like a 409 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: backlash to the horrible fascist Sydney Sweety ad which God 410 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: forbid we put hot people in commercials? 411 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 5: I mean it very well could be. 412 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: Look, we have such a big issue with humor from 413 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 2: the early two thousands, in particular, the same way white 414 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 2: chicks could never be made now, or mean girls could 415 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: never be made now. They're making fun of this list, 416 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: which I would think obviously is not pointing out the 417 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 2: unsexiest woman because Sarah Jessica Parker and Sandra Oh and 418 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 2: Amy Weinhouse are not that unsexy. I guarantee you if 419 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 2: you take someone out into the middle of Central Park 420 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 2: in New York City spun them around with their eyes 421 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 2: closed to them to open, they could immediately point out 422 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 2: five less sexy women than that. So obviously this is 423 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,959 Speaker 2: not a giant dig at these people. These are women 424 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 2: who have aged gracefully over time. It's okay. There is 425 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: a war on jokes, a war on humor right now, 426 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: and we need to take the country back by making 427 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 2: jokes okay again. So I know, don't let it happen. 428 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: Don't let them win. We need to defend humor. 429 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: Joy I probably would add on to that that again, 430 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,919 Speaker 1: say that pretty much every Reddit person that's commenting on 431 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: this and super outrage probably actually would lend on this 432 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: list in one way or another. Gregory, I am curious too. 433 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: You've kind of you guys are both younger than me, 434 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: but specifically you, Gregory is a syndicated columnist. At the 435 00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 1: young age that you're at, you've kind of seen are 436 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: real least grown up with the whole cancel culture world. 437 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: What do you see as kind of the movement that Yeah, 438 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: I guess you can classify it as the conservative movement, 439 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: but I think it's just an over we're all blanket 440 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: movement of fighting back against these quote unquote cancelations. What 441 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 1: does that look like going forward to you? 442 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 4: Yeah? So, first off, this article is completely ridiculous because 443 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 4: personally it's wrong. I mean, Nancy Pelosi should be on 444 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 4: the list, not these people. That's first off. But in 445 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 4: all seriousness, it's just an example of how the left 446 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 4: is continuously going on in their cancel culture and how 447 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 4: my generation gen Z in general is against it. We're 448 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 4: finally fighting back. We want to be able to make 449 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 4: the jokes. We want to be able to not be 450 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 4: called racist every single day of our lives. And not 451 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 4: only that, but you're focusing on this which is supposed hatred, 452 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,880 Speaker 4: which obviously it's a joke. This article is a joke. 453 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 4: When people are being hated for being conservative in schools 454 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 4: and in workplaces and being fired over their political perspective, 455 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 4: I mean, that's what we should be focusing on, not 456 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:57,439 Speaker 4: a stupid magazine that doesn't even put Nancy Pelosi on it. 457 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 4: I mean that's my turn. But in general, cancel culture 458 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 4: is gone now. We can't make it come back. We 459 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,880 Speaker 4: have to make sure that our Trump administration fights it, 460 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 4: doesn't bring it back, and that the left never gains 461 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 4: its power to bring that cancel culture. 462 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: I love the Nancy Pelosikova. That was very funny at 463 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,360 Speaker 1: a genuine laugh there also at the same time too, 464 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: you know, if they're reaching back this far to be 465 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 1: offended about something, gosh wow, imagine having arguments not good 466 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 1: enough to bring itself up to to twenty twenty five 467 00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: and have to go digging for something to be mad about. 468 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,680 Speaker 1: People are also gonna be mad at this. Superman might 469 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: go and force the border. Dean Kine TV's Superman has 470 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: put out a video saying that he's joining us. I 471 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: think we have a short clip of that video. Let's 472 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: check it out, and I want you to get you 473 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: guys reactions. 474 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,719 Speaker 7: Hey, everybody, Dean Kine here, And for those who don't know, 475 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 7: I am a sworn law enforcement officer as well as 476 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 7: being a filmmaker. I felt it was important to join 477 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 7: with our first responders to help secure the safety of 478 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 7: all Americans, not just talk about it. So I joined up. 479 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 7: So if you want to help save America, ICE is 480 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 7: arresting the worst of the worst and removing them from 481 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 7: America's streets. I like that. 482 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: I voted for that. 483 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 7: They need your help. We need your help to protect 484 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 7: our homeland and our families. 485 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 1: Joy, I have a great job. I love what I do. 486 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: There are no complaints and some of the incentives, and 487 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,479 Speaker 1: watching those videos of ICE guys jumping out of trucks 488 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: and snagging child murderers and all of these bad people 489 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: that are in our country makes me consider on a 490 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: daily basis having a career change the Obviously, the incentives 491 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: there are great. There's been over eighty thousand last time 492 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: I checked new applicants to ICE. What do you think 493 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,479 Speaker 1: that says about the shifting culture that we've got in 494 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: this country pertaining to especially the illegal issue. 495 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 2: Particularly after such a long period of seeing people complacent 496 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 2: and just willing to go with the flow and watching 497 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 2: the country crumble at their feet, It is so refreshing 498 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: watching people, particularly men, stand up again realizing that there 499 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 2: is something to fight for. Now we actually have something 500 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 2: there to defend, and we're not going to win so easily. 501 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,719 Speaker 2: So it is going to take a movement. It is 502 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 2: going to take a group of us agreeing and coming 503 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 2: together that we have something worth fighting for and that 504 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 2: thing is protecting our culture, and we cannot protect our 505 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 2: culture if we don't preserve the vast majority of the 506 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 2: people who are citizens of this country. And we do 507 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 2: need to protect our borders and make sure that we 508 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: are a safe place for people in our country to 509 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 2: live peacefully without crime. So good for them. Superhero on 510 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 2: the screen, superhero on the streets. Love to see it, 511 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 2: even if it is prominative, because sometimes it is. I 512 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: honestly don't think it matters the fact that someone who 513 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 2: is so prominent on TV, on screens part of our 514 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 2: entertainment culture is willing to get out and say that 515 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 2: to people. That moves people. That's what's really moving nations. 516 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 2: It's not just the people talking about politics on screens, 517 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: even though that's what I do, that's what I love 518 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 2: to do. I think it is going to be the comedians. 519 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: It is going to be the actors who are really 520 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: gonna move culture here. So shout out to Dan King. 521 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, the borders a strict and physical delineation where good 522 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 1: ideas start and bad ideas end. If you're coming which direct, 523 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: I screwed that up, but you know, you know what 524 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: I mean, what depending on the direction, that's that's what 525 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: that is great. Do you have, like, be honest with me, 526 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 1: a guy, your age, viral, athletic young man that you are, 527 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: do you have any thoughts about joining up with the 528 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: ICE guys to take on the bad guys? 529 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? 530 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 4: So, first off, I wish I could. I can't for 531 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 4: medical reasons, but joining I sort of would be a 532 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 4: very cool experience. But I think we should all clap 533 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 4: it up for you know, the Trump administration's social media 534 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 4: team in general, with the ICE videos, with the videos 535 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 4: about the administration. Remember that picture of Trump and as 536 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 4: the pulp that was just wonderful, like all of those, 537 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 4: like the Trump social media team really stepped it up 538 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 4: these past few months. But also something that I find 539 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 4: very interesting is that there's a big hatred for ICE 540 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 4: right now all around the country, which is scary because 541 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 4: ICE agents are being attacked. ICE agents are being threatened, 542 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 4: and their entire lives are being crushed by these left 543 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 4: wing people who are targeting law enforcement, who are targeting 544 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 4: the very people who are protecting our country, which I 545 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 4: find ridiculous. And with the amount of hatred that ICE 546 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 4: is getting at this time, I really believe that joining 547 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 4: ICE is one of the most patriotic things a young 548 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 4: man can do in our country right now. And even if, 549 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 4: even if you don't agree with necessarily the Trump administration's 550 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 4: policies on immigration as a whole, it doesn't mean you 551 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 4: go attack ICE agents. You can go cast your votes, 552 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 4: you could go, you know, go to political rallies. I 553 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 4: don't care about that, but don't attack law enforcement who 554 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 4: is helping save our country from an invasion. That is 555 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 4: just ridiculous and that's what the left wants to be 556 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 4: associated with. 557 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, we talked to Borders our Tom Homan and he said, yeah, 558 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 1: if you're gonna go protest, somebody, protest Congress, we're just 559 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: enforcing the laws that they wrote. But ridiculous on all fronts. 560 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: Joy Gregory, guys, thanks so much for joining.

What percentage of people who have had Lasik 576 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 11: done are experiencing complications? 577 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 12: Thirty percent. They're late complications that can come on as 578 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 12: long as twenty five years later. 579 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 11: I am ten years postop and I am just now 580 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 11: experiencing I need to start wearing glasses again. I am 581 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,719 Speaker 11: experiencing chronic dry eye, and I thought, well, maybe this 582 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 11: has to do with me having hashimotos and autoimmune disease, 583 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 11: because dryness, you know, all over the body, that's part 584 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 11: of it. But now I'm reading your book and I'm 585 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 11: finding out that dry eye could be a lace at complication. 586 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 12: Well, people who have hashimotos to disease and dry eye 587 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 12: of any sort should not get lasick. You should not 588 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 12: have had lasik if you told them that's what you had. 589 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,680 Speaker 11: Well, I didn't know at the time. I was really young. 590 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 11: I was in my early twenties. What did not happen 591 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 11: was I was not given informed consent that this procedure 592 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 11: the effects really only lasts for a decade. Is that 593 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 11: what you're finding is that normally, the if it does 594 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 11: go well, allegedly that it starts to wear off after 595 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 11: ten years. 596 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 12: Yes, after seven to eight years, forty four percent of 597 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 12: people have lost the ability to see at distance. It 598 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 12: can go in the other way. You can become near sighted, 599 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:06,719 Speaker 12: their scar tissue, their flap complications. It's horrendous. 600 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 11: Well, I was just told that I have some skin 601 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 11: scales or I don't know what that is. They saw 602 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 11: my eyeball they wanted to come back in to look 603 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 11: at and I'm like, is that a lasic thing? 604 00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 5: Well? 605 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 12: Did you have flap lasick or did you have what's 606 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 12: called PRK where they don't do a flap. Do you know? 607 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 11: See, I have no idea. I was so young, I 608 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 11: didn't know. I didn't care. I just thought, oh, they 609 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 11: know what they're doing. Lasik is perfectly safe. I didn't 610 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 11: ask enough questions, right. 611 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 12: You didn't maybe google lasik complications to find out. 612 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 11: I was like twenty two, twenty three years old. 613 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 12: Well, the consent forms for lasik are completely inadequate. At 614 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 12: one point, the FDA was going to require that the 615 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 12: lasik surgeons give their customers an adequate consent form. That 616 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 12: may have been about ten years ago, but they never 617 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 12: The FDA is not taking care of the health of 618 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 12: the public. They're not warning about the dangers of lasik. 619 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 9: Now. 620 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 11: See, this is so crazy. And this is what I 621 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 11: want to get into with you. Because you were an 622 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 11: I doctor in New York City for forty years correct, 623 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 11: and you had a college close colleague who is the 624 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 11: guy who invented lasik. 625 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 12: Yes, and you said. 626 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 11: Wait a minute, you're looking at this science and you're saying, 627 00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 11: this is not adding up. This is an extremely dangerous procedure. 628 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 12: The name of my colleague was Steve Troquel, and I 629 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 12: was working in the I Institute of Columbia Presbyterian Medical 630 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 12: Center one day when Steve rushed into my room and 631 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 12: he shoved a piece of paper in my hands and 632 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 12: it showed a human cornea with an exact rectangle sliced 633 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 12: out of it, and he said, this is going to 634 00:33:55,840 --> 00:34:02,600 Speaker 12: revolutionize ophthalmology. Steve was not cornea specialist. His specialty was 635 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 12: the orbit, the box around the eye. I thought that 636 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 12: was the stupidest idea I've ever heard. The cornea has 637 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:15,320 Speaker 12: the most nerve endings of any part of the body, 638 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 12: and if you cut them, you're cutting through vital tissue. 639 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 12: You know what it's like to get maybe a speck 640 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 12: of dust in your eye or scratch your cornea. 641 00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: If you have. 642 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 12: Lasick, then both of your corneas are damaged and the 643 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 12: pain of the cut nerves is never going to go away. 644 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 12: That's permanent. 645 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 11: Your book says that seventy percent of laser patients still 646 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,600 Speaker 11: need glasses, despite claims that it eliminates the need for 647 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 11: distance glasses. So why is lasik failing to deliver for so. 648 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 12: Many Because it's a bad idea to begin with. Because 649 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 12: the cornea isn't a sheet of plastic, it's living tissue, 650 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 12: and if you cut it, it's going to either regrow 651 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 12: or change its form in some place. So it's inevitable 652 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 12: that lasik will eventually wear off. As a matter of fact, 653 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 12: after seven to eight years, forty four percent of LASIK patients, 654 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 12: according to a paper published in December of twenty twenty four, 655 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:40,400 Speaker 12: have lost the ability to see a distance without glasses. 656 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 11: I also have a stigmatism. Now, oh dear, is that 657 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 11: a lazy complication or. 658 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 12: Just h no. If you didn't have a stigmatism before 659 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 12: your lasik and you now have it, it's likely to 660 00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 12: have been caused by the lasik itself. 661 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 11: What are the statistics how many people are suffering from 662 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 11: botched lasik in the United States? 663 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 12: Well, about twenty million people have had lasik in the 664 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 12: United States, about forty million worldwide, And if there's a 665 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 12: thirty percent risk of permanent, untreatable complications, that would be 666 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 12: thirty percent of twenty maybe about seven eight million people, 667 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 12: So that's a significant number. Another problem is lasik is 668 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 12: a public health hazard because what you do is you 669 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:47,319 Speaker 12: shave off the central port part of the cornea and 670 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 12: the peripheral part is left unchanged, And when your pupil 671 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 12: dilates at night time in dim light, you're going to 672 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 12: have two different focuses, going to have the original focus 673 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 12: out in the periphery and then you're going to have 674 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 12: the focus in the center, which is now going directly 675 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:13,799 Speaker 12: onto your retina. So everybody who's had lasick, has some 676 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 12: problem in dim light, and we are now driving down 677 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 12: roads and people are coming at us who've had LASICK 678 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 12: and they're seeing instead of one headlight, you know, two, three, five, 679 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 12: twenty five headlights. We are flying in planes where the 680 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 12: pilots have had lasick yikes, and they're looking at the 681 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 12: runways and all the starburst and halos around the lights. 682 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:52,880 Speaker 12: It's not safe. If you have had LASIK. You shouldn't drive, 683 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:59,720 Speaker 12: you shouldn't fly, you shouldn't operate a train or a bus. 684 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 12: If you are in dim light, you should restrict your 685 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 12: driving to the day. 686 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 9: Got it. 687 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 3: Admire what you've been able to do, not to weaponize, 688 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 3: but to organize on these college campuses. 689 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 8: At Turning Point USA.

Watch this. So I'm 714 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:50,239 Speaker 1: stay in the night with my son and he has 715 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,920 Speaker 1: a very sick sense of humor. 716 00:39:53,680 --> 00:40:03,320 Speaker 3: He made a Trump bedroom for me. Notice Trump toilet paper, Trump. 717 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 4: Mugshots, and he said open the closet in the. 718 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 3: Closet a. 719 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 5: Life size freaking. 720 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 6: Oh. 721 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 9: I don't even believe it. 722 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: So the caption on that video that was sent by 723 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,640 Speaker 1: one of you fantastic folks was, my son knows how 724 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: much I disliked Trump. He got me. And you know, yes, 725 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: you can kind of laugh at the humorous situation of it, 726 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: But I feel like there's some deeper, more real, tangible 727 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,880 Speaker 1: things going on here that we shouldn't just overlook. First 728 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 1: of all, isn't it interesting that in some cases like this, 729 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,920 Speaker 1: and even in a growing amount of cases, that the 730 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 1: young people are trying to convince the old people, Hey, 731 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: this Trump guy isn't such a bad dude. The conservative 732 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:57,400 Speaker 1: outlook and policy and all of the different things conservatives 733 00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:00,080 Speaker 1: are pushing are generally the better way to go. I 734 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: would imagine that kid's mom, and again I don't know 735 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 1: anything about this family doesn't like the fact that sometimes 736 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: he's a little loud mouthed on the internet, which you know, 737 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:13,840 Speaker 1: I sure, okay, fine, is it what every single president 738 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 1: ever has done prior to him? 739 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 9: No? 740 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: But also, this is a new media age and he 741 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 1: understands how to work it better than anybody else. So 742 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 1: there's also there's that. But then there's also the idea 743 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: that this young person, her son, oh I would imagine, 744 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: probably in his twenties, maybe thirties, having his mom stay 745 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: over the night, is a big Trump fan, and a 746 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: big enough Trump fan to have all of the What 747 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: you're gonna say is, well, how do we know he's 748 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: a Trump fan? What if he's just a guy who 749 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: bought all that stuff? Not Trump fans don't buy all 750 00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: that stuff for that kind of joke. Bottom line is 751 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,000 Speaker 1: the younger generation understands what the real deal is and 752 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: is doing funny stuff like that to their lib parents, 753 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,200 Speaker 1: and hopefully maybe their parents can learn a thing or 754 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 1: two from the young folks there that out there trying 755 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 1: to change the country for the conservative of the conservative good. Well, 756 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: that's going to do it for us here at turning Points, 757 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: And I really appreciate you taking the time and tuning in. 758 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk is going to take us out. We will 759 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: see it tomorrow, same time, same place, God bless America. 760 00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 13: They knew they were too smart to think that they 761 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,359 Speaker 13: could get away with doing it on a Saturday night 762 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 13: or on a Friday night, so they wanted the cover 763 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,439 Speaker 13: of like we're doing it on like the night before 764 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 13: a real news day, But Monday after July fourth is 765 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:33,239 Speaker 13: not a real news day. 766 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 5: Everybody's still in transition, so. 767 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 9: Left on a dress. 768 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 8: I know this is a hypothetical, which I hate those questions. 769 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:40,280 Speaker 8: What if we just try to proceed? 770 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 9: What does that mean? 771 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 8: If we just what just try to proceed? No, don't 772 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,800 Speaker 8: address this. If the administration just tries to power through. 773 00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 13: Her days are numbered. She can't recover from this. She's 774 00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 13: shot herself on the foot on her own credibility. I 775 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,640 Speaker 13: just don't think she's going to recover. And I'm I'm 776 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 13: sorry to be ungenerous, but I just don't think pambody 777 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 13: is skilled enough to avoid making another mistake very soon, 778 00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 13: and so that'll probably be the one that gets her. 779 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 13: Because President Trump, I understand fully, he doesn't want to 780 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 13: offer a scalp in response to this, and I get 781 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 13: it he doesn't want to, and I understand why, even 782 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 13: though it's his own people, he doesn't want to look 783 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 13: like he's sold out his people. 784 00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:20,560 Speaker 5: And he's loyal too, he really is. He's very loyal 785 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,280 Speaker 5: to the people who are loyal to him, to his credit. 786 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 13: But I think he's also extremely smart and he can 787 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:26,760 Speaker 13: read a room better than anybody. 788 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 5: And I think once he realizes, thanks to an event 789 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,919 Speaker 5: like this, etc. That this does matter with the base. 790 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 13: This is not a nothing burger for them, for all 791 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 13: the reasons we've discussed. I think he'll decide she's a goner. 792 00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 13: It's just a question of what the excuse is. More 793 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:45,760 Speaker 13: time with her family, right, and she'll she'll be Cinara. 794 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,879 Speaker 8: And so from a pr standpoint, what so you would 795 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 8: do an open press conference, take every possible question. 796 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,840 Speaker 13: If I were Trump, I would say, all three of 797 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 13: you are going out and holding a presser. Everybody's welcome, 798 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 13: all comers, and you're not leaving until, like we're down 799 00:44:02,239 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 13: to the gym Acostas of the world, like you will say, until. 800 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 5: Those kinds of people have gotten to ask questions. 801 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 13: Because let me tell you something, this is another thing 802 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 13: that's irritating about the whole way they've handled is they're 803 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 13: embarrassing other good people, Like did you see Caroline levi 804 00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 13: It out there trying to answer questions on this. 805 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 9: I think Caroline's great, don't we like care last. 806 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,239 Speaker 5: Same she has nothing to do with this, nothing to 807 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 5: do with it. 808 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 13: I love her and she has total credibility, And I 809 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 13: watched her try to like spin that memo, which is 810 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 13: her job, and I felt nothing but empathy for her, 811 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 13: and I agree, And I also felt like, how dare 812 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 13: you put her. 813 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 5: In this position? 814 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 13: This is your stink over the DOJ. Why don't you 815 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,279 Speaker 13: get your own spokes forn out there to deal with it. 816 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 13: But don't make poor Caroline sacrifice the President's credibility in 817 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 13: hers on this dog turt of a story. So they 818 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 13: do need to wrap it up while it should be 819 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 13: wrapped up. And in a perfect world, Trump will say, 820 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,439 Speaker 13: all three of you get out there, have an open press, 821 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 13: or anybody can can answer questions and just answer them 822 00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 13: all honestly.

My reporting says Cash is staying. 825 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 13: Others says he'll go behind Bongino goes. I think one 826 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 13: of them knows we have a country to run, and 827 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 13: we really do need one of them there. 828 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: Now. 829 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:16,879 Speaker 8: I think we need both. I mean, I I'd hate 830 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:17,720 Speaker 8: to lose them both. 831 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 5: I do too. 832 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 8: And let's play this out for a second though. Let's 833 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 8: say Bongino leaves, Well, he's not going to keep its 834 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 8: mouth shut. So he's got a big one of these, 835 00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 8: and he will come out immediately and he will tell 836 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 8: his side of the story, which will not help the 837 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 8: integrity of the administration. Right, So if you if you 838 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 8: let Bongino walk, you will have somebody for years that 839 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,280 Speaker 8: will be bitter towards the administration. 840 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 9: And all of us. 841 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 5: We're going to want to hurt Trump. 842 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 9: No, no, no, but he'll tell the truth and we 843 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:50,920 Speaker 9: will lose. 844 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 8: We will be like, if Bongino can't go and fight 845 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 8: and solve this thing, then. 846 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 9: Like, I mean, what are we doing here? 847 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 8: Right? If Dan Bongino, who's like one of the greatest 848 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,680 Speaker 8: pots we have, cannot go and reform the FBI with 849 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 8: cash ptel after we win a popular vote majority, right, then. 850 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 9: I'm not I'm like, I will never give up. 851 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 8: But I know for millions of people that will be 852 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 8: met with just a sigh of cynicism. 853 00:46:13,719 --> 00:46:16,239 Speaker 13: Think about it, yes, one hundred percent, and you think 854 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 13: about like you mentioned Janine, Janine Piro would take no prisoners. 855 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 13: She's she's totally confirmable too. She's she'd be great in 856 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 13: this role. Like it's not like there's no bench behind 857 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 13: Pam Bondy, Like there is a bench. Jane could do it, 858 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,920 Speaker 13: Harmy could do it. Even Matt Gates can't do it. 859 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he could do it, but he's not confirmable. Yeah, 860 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:36,160 Speaker 5: he's not confirmable. 861 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 8: Matt Gates for a special prosecutor, that would be there, yew, 862 00:46:39,040 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 8: that would be fun to watch Matt Matt Gates with 863 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 8: a government corruption special process. 864 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:45,400 Speaker 13: Anyway, there are other people who could take over that role. 865 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 13: And just think about it, because I can see the 866 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 13: untenability of Dan and Cash thing effectively working for Pam 867 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 13: right like they're working for her, and she seems feckless, 868 00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 13: except she seems somewhat petty and personal given the leaks 869 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 13: I'm reading, and she seems way too focused on being 870 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:01,959 Speaker 13: a star. 871 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 5: It reminds me of. 872 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:07,319 Speaker 13: Brian Williams of NBC. Remember how it was like it 873 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:09,839 Speaker 13: turned out he was more interested in seeing his mug 874 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 13: on television and telling fake stories about what a badass 875 00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,359 Speaker 13: he allegedly was, and like Abadabad, you know, with Sale 876 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 13: Team six practically rating the compound, then he wasn't in 877 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 13: being taken seriously and being a credible news anchor.
