Between eminent domain and real environmental suits and 264 00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: fake environmental suits, and labor disputes, and you know a 265 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: dozen other things I can't think of. It has been 266 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: an incredible, just fire hose of money to trial attorneys. 267 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: Came across this from Caleb BArch in The National Review. 268 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 1: Due to the beneficial relationship try lawyers and their packs 269 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: share with democratic causes, most try lawsuits only back progressive issues. 270 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: Major trial lawyer packs have spent twenty nine million dollars 271 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: in the last eight years, twenty nine million dollars on 272 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: political action committees and that sort of thing, ninety nine 273 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: percent of it to support Democratic candidates and committees. Since 274 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, ninety nine percent. The consumer advocacy group Alliance 275 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 1: for Consumers revealed and report released Wednesday, AFC outlines the 276 00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: web of federal political action committees funded by major trial lawyers, 277 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: including they name a bunch that if you've not heard 278 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: of them, you haven't heard of them all together. Since 279 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, these packs have put more than ten million 280 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: dollars towards supporting Democratic candidates for the Senate, around eight 281 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: million more towards supporting Democratic candidates for the House, and 282 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: substantial sums to support other major progressive entities, and most 283 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: try lawyers supporting Democratic candidates and causes enjoy a positive 284 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: feedback loop. More regulations mean more tender for lucrative lawsuits, 285 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: and more Democrats in power mean more public contracts to 286 00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: represent plaintiffs and said lucrative lawsuits. 287 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 3: I don't know why this fits in also, but as 288 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 3: a guy who's dealt with divorce laws in California, the 289 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 3: lawyers get together and write laws to where you have 290 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 3: to have lawyers to do things to get divorced, so 291 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 3: you have to hire more lawyers, and that seems to 292 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 3: happen more in blue states. 293 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm sure people in the know could come up 294 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: with twenty different examples. But like the death penalty in California, 295 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: we still give the death penalty, but we never execute anybody, 296 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 1: So you get all the expense which goes to the 297 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,159 Speaker 1: lawyers of a death penalty trial, and then all the 298 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,120 Speaker 1: appeals and the rest of it's all designed to enrich them. Fantastic. 299 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: Well that's a happy note. What are you gonna do? 300 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty got a possible explanation for why Sean P. 301 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 3: Didy Combs is the guy he is. We've learned in 302 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 3: a courtroom today trying to decide how to discuss this 303 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 3: on the air bit. But before we get to that, 304 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,639 Speaker 3: so I am going to read at least some of 305 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 3: that new Jake Tapper book about the Biden presidency that 306 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 3: I unfortunately already paid for months ago before I decided 307 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 3: that I'm angry at Jake Tapper for lying to us 308 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 3: all these years. 309 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 1: Boy, and you're not a drunk, so you can't even 310 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: plead drunk purchase. 311 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 3: Well, I just thought it would be good for the show. 312 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 3: I thought, man, there's gonna be stuff in there, and 313 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 3: it still might be. For instance, I've got one for 314 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 3: you here just a minute. But well, let's start with this. 315 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 3: This is Jake Tapper finally copping to the fact that 316 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 3: maybe he didn't go as far as he should have 317 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,160 Speaker 3: and trying to dig into the president's mental health. 318 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 7: I think some of the criticism is fair, to be 319 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 7: honest of me, certainly, I'm not going to speak for 320 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 7: anybody else, but knowing then what I know now, I 321 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 7: look back at my coverage during the Biden years, and 322 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 7: I did cover some of these issues, but not enough. 323 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 7: I look back on it with humility. 324 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 3: Molly Hemingway tweets out that Jake Tapper hired a crisis 325 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 3: PR group that has repped Elizabeth Holmes, Jeffrey Tuban, Anthony Wieners, 326 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 3: and others to teach him how to be nicer to 327 00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 3: his critics during this thing. So they apparently, he and 328 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 3: the publisher apparently believe they're in such a bad spot 329 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: with the whole The British are coming, the British coming. Yeah, 330 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 3: they're already here. What are you talking about. 331 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Everybody's been talking about this for months. You don't get 332 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,920 Speaker 1: to be Paul Revere on this, all right? Well, and 333 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 1: not only was he not Paul Revere, I mean he 334 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 1: was like King George. He would I should have covered 335 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:14,720 Speaker 1: it more. Uh No, you forcefully defended the opposite point 336 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,919 Speaker 1: of view and belittled people who are trying to speak 337 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 1: the plain truth. Right, So yeah, I get it. So 338 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,920 Speaker 1: they've gone from thinking, oh, this is going to be 339 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,359 Speaker 1: an exciting book of revelations that will be praised on 340 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: both sides of the aisle, now realizing, oh my god, 341 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: we're a punchline to some people. 342 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'll be interested to see how it lands 343 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 3: when it comes out next week. It's possible it doesn't 344 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 3: make much noise when it comes out next week because 345 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 3: all the talking. But for instance, I'm a big fan 346 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 3: of Jonah Goldberger the Dispatch, though I do think he 347 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 3: actually has Trump derangement syndrome, which he would yell at 348 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 3: me for. He wrote a long piece yesterday about how 349 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 3: I think Jake Tapper's being unfairly attacked, and Jake Tapper 350 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: did a good job of blah blah blah and this 351 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 3: and that and whatever. You work at CNN and you 352 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 3: guys are friends. Fine, yeah, fine. Jonah might be the 353 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 3: classic example of somebody I think is extremely bright, and 354 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 3: when I agree with them, I agree wholeheartedly. 355 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: But at least thirty to forty percent of the time, 356 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: I think he's a just I almost use an unfortunate term. 357 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: I think he is misguided. 358 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 3: Wow, you really think in all those interviews where he 359 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 3: would tepidly bring up a poll number shows many voters 360 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 3: don't think Joe Biden should be president again, and then 361 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,919 Speaker 3: he credits that for really challenging the White House, he 362 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 3: would take their spin at face value and move on. 363 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 3: When everybody in America was looking at Joe Biden on 364 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 3: a daily basis and saying that guy should not be president. 365 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Jonah needs to maybe leave the elite 366 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,679 Speaker 1: intellectual circles he's been running in for a lifetime and 367 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 1: maybe hang out with some people whose hands get dirty 368 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: at work for ten minutes. I think that would help. 369 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 3: Them any Jonah did say that he had read the 370 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 3: first five chapters of the book and it's really interesting, 371 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 3: and I thought, okay, gool, maybe there is interesting stuff 372 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 3: in there, like this that came out yesterday from the 373 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 3: Jake Tapper book about Joe Biden. 374 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: Some members of Biden's cabinet didn't. 375 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,360 Speaker 3: Believe he could be relied on to perform at two 376 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 3: am during an emergency in the final year of his presidency, 377 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 3: and that their access to him had dropped off considerably. Now, 378 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 3: I gotta believe that's some of the more major secretaries 379 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 3: that count, because I doubt some of the minor secretaries 380 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 3: had much access to him. Ever, so for it to 381 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 3: drop off considerably, that means you once had considerable contact. 382 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 3: So I I just wonder if it's not like some 383 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 3: of your you know, your secretaries of State, you know, 384 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 3: your secretary's of Defense, that sort of thing, that maybe 385 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 3: their access dropped off quite a bit. And thought I 386 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 3: don't know if he could handle an emergency if he 387 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 3: shows up. And as you pointed out earlier, two am, 388 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 3: how about noon on any given day, based on the 389 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,120 Speaker 3: way he sometimes was, and all the times they canceled meetings, 390 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: That's what Mark Alpern was talking about. Said, all the 391 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 3: times that they would just out of nowhere counsel a 392 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 3: meeting that he was supposed to have it one in 393 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:11,400 Speaker 3: the afternoon. 394 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 1: Why do you think that was? Yeah, yeah, well there was. 395 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: There is no question that he was. Biden was completely 396 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 1: hidden from anybody but the inner circle, the inner inner 397 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: circle by the end. 398 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 3: And so mentioned this earlier in the show, I'm trying 399 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 3: to change my I wish America would change their their 400 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,680 Speaker 3: thinking on this from I'm angry at Jake Tapper to hey, 401 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 3: secretary of State or sect deaf or whoever the heck 402 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 3: you secretaries were.

That is 472 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 3: his defense lawyers trying to make that argument that they're swingers. 473 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 3: We go both directions, all kinds of different directions. It's 474 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 3: just a bunch of adult swinging. That's not a crime. 475 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 3: That's what they're trying to get to there. 476 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: Right right. When it comes to the specifics of sex trafficking, 477 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: that won't matter. But one other thing. And look, I'm 478 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: not a professional obviously, defense attorney, but I've known them, 479 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,640 Speaker 1: I've studied them, I've read about them, and I've been 480 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: on some juries. There are a certain number of jurors who, 481 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: if you take the Russian propaganda approach, the ultimate goal 482 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: of a lot of Soviet now Russian propaganda, a lot 483 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: of it is to convince you of something in particular, 484 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: but a lot of it is to make you feel 485 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: like you have no idea what is true, and there's 486 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: no way to figure it out, so you despair from 487 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 1: keeping from seeking the truth. Well, some defense techniques in 488 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: a trial is just to have the jurors so confused 489 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: they think I got all sorts of doubts, never mind 490 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: a reasonable baue. I don't know who to believe, I 491 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: don't know what's going on. I've lost track of who 492 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 1: is force and who and what does sex trafficking mean? 493 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,119 Speaker 3: And again right then you throw in a dash of 494 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: she got twenty million dollars, and I think you could 495 00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 3: say whatever. 496 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's impossible to do for a variety of reasons, 497 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 1: ethical and practical. But I wish there was some sort 498 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 1: of authoritative book. Maybe there is, come to think of it, 499 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: I'll bet there is. I'm sorry, I'm just having a 500 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: conversation with myself. But the question watching that, the question 501 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 1: of why jurors vote to a quit for bad reasons. 502 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: I would like to see some sort of statistical study 503 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: on like ten to two juries, for instance, nine to three, 504 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 1: or even more overwhelming ten to two to eleven to 505 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: one reasons. Is it like the Twelve Angry Men one 506 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: brave iconoclast Gregory Peck? I think standing up for real 507 00:28:58,840 --> 00:28:59,959 Speaker 1: justices he season. 508 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 3: I seldom think that's probably what's going on there. It's 509 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 3: the one everybody's like slapping their forehead. What do you 510 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 3: mean you still don't feel like they're guilty? 511 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: Yeah? Or is it soft heads unable to think critically 512 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: who are swayed by the defense attorney just confusing. 513 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 3: Something eyes It makes me think he couldn't do that 514 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 3: sort of thing. 515 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: Ah right, Yeah, I was the one jury I was on. 516 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: There was one woman who was just a nice young 517 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: gal in her twenties, but I felt for her because 518 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: life is always going to be hard. She was just dumb. 519 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: She was really not smart. There was one gal who's 520 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 1: a bit of a half wit who had these weird 521 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 1: beliefs that she would speak in the jury room and 522 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: we'd all be like looking at each other, like I 523 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: don't even know how to begin arguing with that. 524 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 3: His ring fingers longer and his index finger and those 525 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 3: people tend not to be rapist, so. 526 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: Stuff like that, stuff like that. And then there are 527 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: one gal who just was so devoid of life experience. 528 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: She you know, I won't get into the details. I've 529 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: told the stories before, but and that was on a 530 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: single jury. I think twenty five percent of the jury 531 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: was It was like leading a sheep to the trough 532 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: to what a sheep eat. I don't even know sheeap food. Clearly, 533 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: trying to get them to a reasonable verdict was like 534 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: trying to herd. 535 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 3: Cattle, very much like leading his sheep to the trough, 536 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 3: the old sheep trough. 537 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 1: We finished strong. 538 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 3: Next time, I just came across this. I don't know 539 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 3: what CBS News reporter, but I just saw this CBS 540 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 3: News reporter says Wall Street Journals twenty twenty four report 541 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 3: on Biden's decline should have won the Pulitzer Prize. Remember 542 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 3: when the Wall Street Journal did that big piece he 543 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 3: got just got swammed. I think that's the one where 544 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 3: Joe Scarborough lost his mind and. 545 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 8: Said a few if you don't think this is the 546 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 8: best version of you know, I think that was over 547 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 8: the Wall Street Journal thing, and this CBS reporter I'll 548 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 8: have to dig up who that actually was, says the 549 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 8: Wall Street Journal should have won the Pulitzer for that. 550 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: Why because they said what should have been obvious. But anyway, 551 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: well they broke from the cowardly cowardly pack. Yeah, that 552 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: doesn't seem that admirable to me. 553 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 3: No, I think I have time to properly describe this. 554 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 3: Maybe by tomorrow we'll have the oral arguments in from 555 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 3: today's Supreme Court dust up over not just birthright citizenship 556 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: that's the topic, but this system we've got where one 557 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 3: judge can hold everything up. 558 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: Is that working force or not? Yeah? I read a 559 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: blow by blow description and it was about three quarters 560 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: the way through the oral arguments. The reporter said, they've 561 00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: only touched on the birthright citizenship thing in past, so 562 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: it's the big issue. Yeah, the issue is can a 563 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: single federal judge issue of nationwide injunction anytime they want? 564 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 3: Well, Tim Sander for our friend, he said, the arguments 565 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 3: against this system typically boiled down to let the government 566 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 3: keep acting illegally until the Supreme Court rules. 567 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: And he said that's just not a good idea. That 568 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 1: is where you'd be. 569 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 3: And it takes a long time, as we all know, 570 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 3: for things to work their way up to the Supreme Court. 571 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are levels of the judiciary between those, but 572 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 1: I confess I'm curious to hear people learned, people suggest solutions. 573 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: Gentlemen's Final Fults manifest with Armstrong and Getty.
