Privilege and a pleasure 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:15.240 to have you here with me as always, thank you 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:16.960 so much for spending some of your time with me. 0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:19.400 I want to bring you up to speed on the 0:02:19.400 --> 0:02:22.800 the latest here on the breaking news story. We uh 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:28.120 do not have a full sense of you know, where 0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.359 all this is going. We we do not yet know 0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:35.000 anything about motive um. But we do have the Maryland Governor, 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:38.000 Larry Larry Hogan. We'll get some sound from him in 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:40.000 just a moment here we'll hear what he has to say. 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:44.160 Here's what we know. Five people killed, several other gravely 0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:47.840 injured during a shooting at the newsroom of the Capital 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:53.600 Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland. Capital Gazette is a newspaper there. UM. 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:57.400 An unidentified suspect is in custody. They got nothing right 0:02:57.400 --> 0:03:01.600 now on motive. I believe police made it to the 0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:06.840 scene of this shooting within sixty seconds, so a very 0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:10.600 fast police response time. Earlier reports indicate that a shotgun 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:16.520 was used here. Uh, and I'm seeing here according the 0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:19.079 Daily Mail, and I will remember all these early reports. 0:03:19.120 --> 0:03:21.920 You gotta you gotta just know that it's not yet 0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:26.280 confirmed and we're just not sure. But a ponytailed white 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:30.280 male carrying a long gun and explosive device, this is 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.960 the headline on the Daily Mail. Um has killed at 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:37.680 least five people and three others gravely wounded. So obviously 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.680 they were hit, two they were shot. UM cops also 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:45.320 have revealed that he purposefully damaged his fingertips so he 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:51.600 could not be identified. What heck is that believe to 0:03:51.640 --> 0:03:53.560 be in his late twenties. Remember these are all this 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.720 is all based on Daily Mail reporting. Most of it 0:03:55.800 --> 0:04:01.600 coming off of NBC blonde ponytail, bac T shirt olive pants, 0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:06.720 don't have don't have much more on other than that, 0:04:07.280 --> 0:04:11.600 but this damaging a fingertip, so essentially removing his fingertips 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:14.920 so that he couldn't be identified. That is something that 0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:21.159 I believe was actually done in the very haunting movie seven. 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.680 Do you remember the guy cuts off his I believe 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.320 the guy cuts off his fingertips and that so that 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.640 he can't be identified either, so he has no fingerprint 0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.000 analysis possible. The So that's what we know about the 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.520 suspects so far. Maryland Governor Larry Hogan spoke out on 0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:40.280 this one play two. Sorry, we had a quick uh 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:42.960 machine reset there, so we'll play there. We go go ahead. 0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:45.320 Thoughts and prayers or with the victims and their families 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:49.640 and um, I want to thank the the law enforcement 0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:54.120 professionals who responded. Our emergency response team was they did 0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.840 an incredible job. They're still doing the job right now. 0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.000 But the fact that they responded within sixty seconds, I 0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:01.840 want to I want to get of serious praise to 0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:05.839 uh ANT, Toronto County and the City of Annapolish for 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:07.800 for their response. And we were here with the state 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.600 agencies to back them up. We have federal agencies. Uh, 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:14.360 it's a tragic situation. We can't we don't have all 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:16.920 the information yet, and we can't give all the information 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:19.520 yet because it's an active crime scene and investigation. But 0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:24.120 uh we uh we have had uh several fatalities and 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.240 several people there in the hospital and uh, we'll just 0:05:27.279 --> 0:05:29.840 leave it to the professionals to continue their ongoing investigation. 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.160 So we just don't have that much more information as 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.920 as you heard, they're from Governor Governor Hogan. You have 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.279 a suspect and custody, blond ponytail, black T shirt, olive pants, 0:05:40.279 --> 0:05:44.400 and that doesn't really tell us anything. Uh, so we 0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:48.720 know he's a white guy in his twenties, and people 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:51.600 are all jumping all over place with motive. We'll get 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.640 to that in just a second. And I'll say that 0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.080 what we do know, if we're gonna analyze the facts 0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:58.720 that we have at hand instead of just making things 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:00.680 up and running around and act like we know things 0:06:00.760 --> 0:06:05.800 we don't um interesting that he is believed of using 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:07.800 he's believed to use a shotgun, which is clearly going 0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:14.400 to factor into the gun debate. That's already breaking out. 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:17.279 Every time there's a shooting now that gets national media coverage, 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:20.600 it turns into a gun issue, and it doesn't really 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:25.080 go anywhere with regard to policy, but it turns into 0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:30.000 a gun control fight. But that he used a shotgun 0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.000 and shot through the glass door of the office is 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:35.440 an open fire the newspaper employees. This indicates one of 0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:37.200 the problems I've always talked about, which is even when 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:40.600 you have a facility that is let's i'm gonna guess here, 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:45.000 maybe they had keycard access only, right, Okay, well, what 0:06:45.040 --> 0:06:48.719 if the guy shoots through the doors. You know, these 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.440 are the things you have to keep in mind that 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:53.359 there's no such thing as a as a perfect security system. 0:06:53.400 --> 0:06:55.400 If somebody wants to get in and hurt innocent people 0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:58.800 who are not expecting a madman with a with a 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:02.560 weapon to come at them, there's you can mitigate the risks, 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:06.719 you can limit the damage, you can limit the casualties. Um, 0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:10.960 but that's as far as it can go. There's no 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.520 such thing as perfect security. When you're trying to get 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:16.960 a facility like this to be able to withstand it 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:22.440 an active shooter incident, Remember, police responded within sixty seconds 0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:28.160 and already you've got you've got five people killed. So 0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:29.920 this is what I always tell people, But they say, oh, well, 0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:33.080 you know, police response and everything. There's when you have 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.360 somebody who wants to do evil, who wants to kill people, 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:41.160 very hard to save all lives in that circumstance, and 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:44.720 a sixty second response, I'm from the cops is incredibly quick. 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:48.720 So that's I don't You're not gonna get any faster 0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:50.680 than that. This isn't a police response thing. You know. 0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:52.640 Some of the other incidents that I've talked about, Pulse 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:58.760 Nightclub shooting, Las Vegas shooting, um the obviously the Marjorie 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:03.960 Stillman Douglas High School footing police response was questionable at best. 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.400 I mean Marjorie Stoney Stoneman Douglas case. I think the 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:09.400 police response from a couple of officers. Remember some officers 0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.040 showed up and all they wanted to do was go 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:13.920 in there and deal with the threat. But the first officer, 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:17.960 as we know, on the scene, got cold feet, didn't 0:08:17.960 --> 0:08:20.600 want to go in there, don't want to do anything. Uh, 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.480 we don't have much on the motive at all. We 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:28.120 got nothing. Because of the overheated political climate right now, 0:08:29.480 --> 0:08:34.400 everyone's gonna be jumping to whatever their favored political analysis is, right, 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:37.960 whatever storyline they want to tell themselves that makes them 0:08:38.960 --> 0:08:44.560 feel better about things, That's what they're gonna do. And 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:46.720 all I can say on this one is I've worked 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:52.160 counter terrorism cases. I've done this professionally. You just haven't. 0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.320 You just have no idea. Could very easily be a 0:08:55.320 --> 0:08:59.920 disgruntled employee, could be somebody with a vendetta against an 0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:02.720 individual there who just wanted to go and kill as 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:06.800 many people as possible. Uh, somebody, Maybe it's just one 0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:09.880 of these go out in a psychotic blaze of mass 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.240 murder glory shooters and had some connection to this place. 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.360 Maybe he just knew the facility. Remember that's always a 0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:19.760 big factor and how many casualties there are and how 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:23.280 dangerous these incidents are. Is when somebody knows their way 0:09:23.320 --> 0:09:27.079 around a place, they're they're gonna have a higher probably 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:31.560 higher probability of more casualties, right because you know, if 0:09:31.559 --> 0:09:33.640 someone doesn't know in office they walk into, maybe they get, 0:09:34.160 --> 0:09:36.520 you know, lot locked into one area. Maybe they don't 0:09:36.559 --> 0:09:39.120 realize how quickly people can exit a certain zone. So 0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.880 it's essentially a kind of reconnaissance that somebody has just 0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:49.240 from knowing the target and knowing their way around. Uh, 0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:52.320 I got nothing for you on the motive of this guy. 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:56.839 People are gonna say that it's that it's maybe brought 0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:59.120 about by the I see one thing that I will 0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:02.080 just also state, I do not know anything about the cap, 0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:07.480 about the newspaper here, the Capital Gazette, Maryland's Capital Gazette. 0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:11.200 So I can't even begin to analyze does it is 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:14.120 it leaning left? Is it leading right? And I think 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:15.920 that that at this point it's kind of a fool's 0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:19.720 errand anyway, because you just don't know, you can't look 0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:22.679 into this incident and say to yourself, well, I can 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:26.880 see I like, I can't even say a likely political motive. 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:29.679 So I can't even say this is likely to be terrorist. 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:31.960 But notice I go on Fox, I go in other places. 0:10:32.280 --> 0:10:33.600 I used to go and see an all the time 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:35.960 to analyze terrorism, and I can tell you what the 0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:39.000 probability is based on the facts, based on the factors 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:43.160 at play here. I can't do that with regard to 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:45.800 motive because I think there's so much that's open territory 0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:48.520 here and nothing really points it at anything. You know, 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.600 we just we just got a mass shooting on our hands. 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:54.360 We don't know much beyond that. And then, as you know, 0:10:54.520 --> 0:11:00.440 this quickly turns into a discussion about guns. That's the 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:04.280 way that the Democrats treat all of these incidents. And 0:11:04.360 --> 0:11:07.560 you had Nicole Wallace, who I believe was formerly considered 0:11:07.559 --> 0:11:10.680 a Republican work for the Bush administration and now spends 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:13.839 all of her time doing everything she can to harm 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:18.319 Republican interests. That seems to be heard. That's her choice, 0:11:18.360 --> 0:11:21.679 that's you know, it's a free country. But she turned 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:26.680 to this and was very upset about this and h 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.040 wants action, which we're gonna hear from a lot of people. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:32.240 We want action on this, Blakeli. It's a depressing point, 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:33.880 that a true one. I mean, if new Town can 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:37.480 happen and nothing changes, if Parkland happens and nothing changes, 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.800 if they're hunting our babies and nothing changes, then then 0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:47.400 what makes something changed? What would change here? Sixty second 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:53.120 response from police shooter used a shotgun? So are we 0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:56.320 gonna ban shotguns? Now? See, this is where they're going 0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:58.960 to automatically run into trouble by claiming that there needs 0:11:58.960 --> 0:12:03.480 to be a a policy response to this. There are 0:12:03.520 --> 0:12:08.160 security responses. There are discussions to be had about how 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:11.079 to make a target less of a soft target, about 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:14.160 how to have a workforce that understands at a basic 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:15.800 and you know, at a very basic level, we're not 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:17.680 gonna be not everybody's gonna be able to, you know, 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.880 get turned into delta force, right, you know that's not 0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:25.000 the way this is gonna go. But just having a 0:12:25.040 --> 0:12:28.520 basic safety plan in place and an understanding of what 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:30.520 to do in an active shooter incident. Here, here's a 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.560 really simple thing. And this is something that was drilled 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:34.920 into us, and I mean drilled into our mindset and 0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:40.160 the agency. You know, get off the X. When you 0:12:40.280 --> 0:12:43.600 are in a situation where you're in a circumstance where 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:46.880 you are in your under mortal threat, you do not 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:50.360 stay put right and unless you have reasonab believe that 0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:53.720 you are sheltering in place and you are safe, get 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:55.640 off the X. If somebody's ambushing you, if all of 0:12:55.679 --> 0:12:58.760 a sudden the bullets start flying, you gotta move. If 0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:01.480 you just you know, bury your head in the proverbial 0:13:01.520 --> 0:13:03.760 stand and hope that the storm passes. You're in a 0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:07.000 lot of trouble, right, get off the X, move take action. 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:11.240 So I think that's. Ah, that's a very very important 0:13:11.240 --> 0:13:13.160 thing for everyone to just keep in mind. No matter 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.800 what your specific circumstances are of an incident, you've got 0:13:16.800 --> 0:13:21.240 to know that you don't freeze, you won't freeze in 0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:24.560 terms of, you know, the the gun controlled discussion here, 0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:28.760 what I can say about that is it's a shotgun. 0:13:29.440 --> 0:13:33.080 This is this is a weapon that if you're going 0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:35.520 to even pretend there is such a thing as the 0:13:35.600 --> 0:13:37.960 right to bear arms so that people can be sportsman 0:13:38.000 --> 0:13:40.839 and hunt, which the rights barns has nothing to do 0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:43.720 with sports and hunting. But you know, you'll you'll have 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.120 these Democrat politicians will go on TV and they'll say, oh, 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:48.319 you know, I'm a sportsman, I'm a hunter. You know, 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:49.760 I think you should be able to have a shotgun. 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:51.720 I just don't think you should have a bazooka. You'll 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:53.960 hear these straw man arguments all the time. Well, this 0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:57.040 was a shotgun. This is why you know it's it 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.880 wasn't an a r it wasn't a quote assault rifle. 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:03.480 It was a shotgun. We don't have much details on it. Look, 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:05.760 there's there are shotguns and their shotguns, right, I'm guessing 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.880 this wasn't a side by side, you know, Elmer fud 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:12.400 styled double barrel. I'm assuming that this probably was a semiota, 0:14:12.480 --> 0:14:18.199 a semi auto. But uh, Nonetheless, you're not gonna ban shotguns. 0:14:18.200 --> 0:14:21.400 So there's not a Second Amendment debate to really have 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:24.760 here unless you're gonna say, ban all firearms. Unless that's 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:27.400 gonna be the approach. Some of the media will try that, 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.480 but that's just a non starter. You couldn't do it 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:33.520 even if you wanted to do it, even if you know, 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:36.760 fifty of the country was dead set against the Second Amendment, 0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:38.920 and that's not the case. But even if the Congress said, 0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:42.840 you know, voted without a single descent to repeal the 0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:45.320 Second Amendment, you know, get rid of it, they're never 0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:48.320 gonna You're never gonna get rid of firearms in this country. 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.720 You're certainly never gonna get rid of long guns, of 0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:55.520 shotguns in this country. And what would happen if the 0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:59.800 government tried would be terrifying. Actually, um, and I would 0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:04.560 never or want to put any government personnel, government agent, 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:06.480 law enforcement officer in a place where they were going 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:08.440 around trying to collect firearms, because we all know how 0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:10.680 that would end up. It would not be good. So 0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:14.040 not a policy discussion we have here had here. I 0:15:14.080 --> 0:15:15.720 can't give you much on the motive. People are gonna 0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.760 say that it's a political temperature thing, maybe even a 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:22.760 response to the open Supreme Court seat. That this guy 0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:28.280 could be a radical leftist. I don't know. Maybe possible, certainly, 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:33.360 certainly in the realm of you know of of options here. 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:35.000 But he also could have been somebody who just had 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:37.200 a grudge, just had a beef with somebody there. You know, 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:38.760 this is what you think of. You remember people used 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:40.600 to go postal. That was a phrase that was used 0:15:40.600 --> 0:15:43.520 for postal workers who you know, this could be a 0:15:43.520 --> 0:15:46.560 workplace shooting, simple as that. We just don't know. If 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:49.760 we get more during the show, I will certainly bring 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:51.920 that to you right away. But I just want to 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:55.720 update you. Five dead, more wounded, shotgun used guys in custody. 0:15:55.800 --> 0:15:59.240 Police response was fast at a newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:03.920 at the Capital Gazette. That's what we've got eight four 0:16:03.960 --> 0:16:07.480 or four eight to five, eight four four nine buck 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.240 A lot to work through today with regard to these 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:15.080 hearings on Capitol Hill. Rosenstein on the hot seat in 0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.680 a big way, deep state is starting to get a 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:20.400 little scared. I think I think they're gonna be running 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:22.800 scared soon. So get ready for that. We've got a 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:25.280 whole lot more show. Light up those lines, team, I'll 0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:39.200 be right back. What stuns me is why the markets 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:42.520 have not reacted to the lack of stability. They're beginning 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:46.760 to own the teriffs without this prosperity. And a friend 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:49.360 of mine pointed out this morning that it wasn't until 0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:53.520 Nixon's recession that the Watergate stuff drove. So if a 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:56.960 recession hits, I think that's where he bought it falls out. 0:16:57.040 --> 0:17:08.159 I think so. Um, Okay, check our session coming he recession. 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:10.800 Let's say lots of people lose their jobs in their 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:16.399 homes he MSNBC. It's pretty gross, but there's some truth 0:17:16.440 --> 0:17:20.679 to it. Uh. They're messaging against the president. They're shooting. 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:22.680 They're shooting a bb gun at a at a tank. 0:17:22.760 --> 0:17:25.359 My friends, they are This is a super soaker at 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.399 a freight train. It's just not gonna do anything. Do 0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:30.360 you guys remember super soakers? By the way, I thought 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.399 they were so cool, but when used to watch the 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:35.879 commercials with super soakers, uh, it looked like you were 0:17:35.880 --> 0:17:38.399 shooting a fire hose. You know, they had these like 0:17:38.440 --> 0:17:41.000 neon orange and all these cool but then when you 0:17:41.000 --> 0:17:43.920 actually get when it was like just a little water 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:45.960 came out and it was not as cool as it 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:49.000 wasn't the commercials also true of slipping slides. By the way, 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:52.640 slipping sides slides and commercials look so awesome, and then 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:55.040 if you've ever tried one, it's a great way to 0:17:55.080 --> 0:17:57.920 dislocate your shoulder. I'll tell you that right now. It's true, Mike. 0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:01.080 I may have known some people who have done some 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:06.359 slipping slide, not entirely sober. I've heard things, I've seen things. 0:18:06.880 --> 0:18:10.080 I know a guy, and you hit that slip and 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:12.560 slide wrong when you weighed like two plus pounds, and 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:16.919 who it is, it is not padded well for you. 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:19.919 The ground hurts. Look, I'm gonna make it all the 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:24.760 way across. I'm gonna set a record. No, you're not anyway. 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:28.080 Safety tip on slipping slides. There on the economy, though, 0:18:28.680 --> 0:18:31.880 MSNBC and others, they're right, they have to root for recession. 0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:34.440 They have to root for failure because they can try 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:37.280 as much as they want right now, they can try 0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.160 and and tell us that the economy is not good. 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:42.280 We know they're lying. It is good if it were bad, 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.840 that's all we hear about. One of the amazing things 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:48.440 was that Obama had the media so in his pocket 0:18:48.440 --> 0:18:52.240 that having a bad economy and a bad recovery out 0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:55.800 of a bad economy for four years, I'm gonna talking 0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:58.520 with the first year. Yeah, he inherited a recession, blah blah, 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:05.520 deitiation so sad. But even after four years he was 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:07.479 given a pass on that one by the media. They're like, Oh, 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:11.000 it was Bush's fault. That's all Bush's fault with Trump. 0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:13.040 If things stay the way they are right now, my friends, 0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:17.560 forget about blue wave. It's gonna be a red tsunami. 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:20.640 That's what I think is gonna happen. At least I'm 0:19:20.680 --> 0:19:23.960 hoping if that's what's gonna happen. Very very important stuff 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.320 going on. Capitol Hill. Will get into that deep state 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:30.520 is running scared. But also more talk about the Supreme 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.840 Court seat that is now open because of Kennedy's retirement. 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:36.359 I'll tell you how the lips are freaking out and 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:38.919 what do we have to do to own the Libs 0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:42.359 with this open seat. I will explain all of that 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:46.440 and more in detailed freedom Hunt style analysis. Stay with me. 0:19:57.800 --> 0:20:01.240 He's holding the line for a mirror buck Sex in 0:20:01.359 --> 0:20:04.480 his back. No, I have no hope that he will 0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:11.320 appoint anything resembling a moderate or a justice who will 0:20:11.320 --> 0:20:14.760 take both sides and consider the consideration. I think what 0:20:14.800 --> 0:20:18.800 we're looking for is the nomination of a right wing extremist. 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:21.359 I may be afraid of the next nominee to the 0:20:21.400 --> 0:20:23.919 Supreme Court from Donald Trump, and we need to be 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:27.360 able to express to the American people what it means 0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:31.040 as a woman of color to be denied equity and 0:20:31.160 --> 0:20:34.240 justice in the system of justice in the United States. 0:20:34.480 --> 0:20:37.960 My fear on the basis of who President Trump might nominate, 0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:41.879 we're looking at a destruction of the constituency United States, 0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:43.480 as far as I can tell, based on all of 0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:47.080 the folks that he's been appointing thus far for lifetime appointments. 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:49.359 This has got to be one of the and we 0:20:49.440 --> 0:20:51.159 all need to understand this to be one of the 0:20:51.160 --> 0:20:53.480 most serious fights that we have yet to have had 0:20:53.600 --> 0:20:59.560 with this president. And we cannot relent. Kamala Harris often 0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:07.199 talked about as a possible Democrat twenty contender against Trump. 0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:10.160 Staying there and look, we played. We played it for you, folks. 0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:14.000 I'm not making this up. We're looking at the destruction 0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:21.160 of the Constitution. What does that even mean? In what way? 0:21:21.359 --> 0:21:26.840 How is it possible that the left interprets the Constitution 0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:28.679 to me to mean whatever they want, and the right 0:21:28.800 --> 0:21:32.440 is like, no, the Constitution is words. Words have meaning. 0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:38.240 We can understand that meaning, and with regard to legal interpretation, 0:21:38.320 --> 0:21:40.800 we should probably adhere to that meeting in some way, 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:42.800 you know, we should, we should pay attention to it. 0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:48.359 But I guess it's more fun, more fun for the 0:21:48.440 --> 0:21:51.320 left to pretend that they can just say whatever they 0:21:51.320 --> 0:21:53.920 want about this because they're so upset. They're so upset. 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:57.560 I'm just like freaking out, Like why is the Constitution 0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:01.200 being like taken and like like chewed up and spit 0:22:01.240 --> 0:22:03.760 into like a little machine like the spaghetti machine and 0:22:03.920 --> 0:22:10.040 fall like ripped and ruined. Huh. I'll say whatever they want, right, 0:22:10.200 --> 0:22:14.919 they say, this is destroying the Constitution. Meanwhile, everything that 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:19.800 we know so far, everything about this, tells us that 0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:24.960 there is nothing that Democrats can do about it. There's 0:22:24.960 --> 0:22:27.040 nothing they should be able to do about it. The 0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:29.480 president is completely within his rights. You know that this 0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:34.320 is always really telling they think that it is unconstitutional 0:22:34.760 --> 0:22:38.600 for the president to use his constitutional authority to do 0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:44.680 something that they don't like. That's that's pretty much what 0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:48.040 it comes out to. They've turned unconstitutional into a version 0:22:48.040 --> 0:22:52.440 of I don't like that. That's not how it works. 0:22:52.720 --> 0:22:56.399 Any of this works. But this is something that they 0:22:56.440 --> 0:23:01.080 will say. This is something that they believe, and it's, 0:23:01.520 --> 0:23:03.440 you know, something we all have to deal with here. 0:23:03.480 --> 0:23:07.240 So you know, I just I continue looking at this 0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:11.360 and seeing the amount of of freak out out there 0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:14.440 about all of this, and I would just say that 0:23:15.640 --> 0:23:20.359 it's gonna get It's gonna get so much worse. How 0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:23.920 much is for sure? We are we can expect that 0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:27.800 the hyperbole will only increase. We can expect that there 0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:32.200 will be a lot more crazy things that are said 0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:34.960 about all this. There will be a lot more in 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:39.000 terms of people who are just running all over the 0:23:39.000 --> 0:23:42.639 place trying to stoke all kinds of fears and trying 0:23:42.680 --> 0:23:46.360 to create a situation where we can't have a rational 0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:49.119 discussion about what the Supreme Court picks should be. And 0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:52.160
